I kind of wish we had near 0% inflation rate like Japan. I understand there are downsides to this, and one of the most concerning ones to me is the need to compete with China for economic dominance, since no other country really comes close to America in terms of economic power except maybe China.

> Apple has a fairly long history of keeping cross-platform ports alive even if they aren't publicly available (that's why the transitions from 68K->PowerPC->Intel->Apple Silicon have been relatively smooth)

I don’t fully follow that logic. There never was a cross-platform Mac OS until PowerPC. The 68k to PowerPC transition had the first PowerPC version running most of the OS in emulation, and an incredible hack (in the good sense) to allow 68k code call PowerPC code and vice versa for all the different calling conventions that the 68k version of the OS used.

I think the later transitions only worked because they had moved to the Unix-based Mac OS X before that, ditching lots of assembly code. It’s Unix that’s portable.

For both PowerPC to Intel and Intel to Apple Silicon I guess it also helped that they already had code for lots of time-critical parts of the OS. For the first, they had Intel code in QuickTime for Windows, for the second, ARM code in iOS.
Misgendering people intentionally is transphobic, and systems of this nature behave this way.

* For internal consumption, the code should be THE doc.

Writing is improved by reading other's work. Ask these engineers to read fictional and non-fictional books(novels, autobiographies, biographies etc), ask them to read anything written by other engineers excellent at writing: Paul Graham, Linus Torvalds etc. Paul Graham has several articles on writing. Also, both Paul and Linus have mentioned that they re-review their writing before posting. Also ask them to watch good online debates. This all helps in putting ideas to words. Most of the time engineers know what they want to say, but they don't know how to say it.

Interesting phone. Have considered for quite some time to move to a dumbish phone, or at least something more minimal. Would like to ditch the mindless and low friction browsing etc.. but OTOH I would miss Signal/Telegram as it is too much of a benefit to me in daily life, as is Maps.

Most of those issues could be dealt with by changing habits/lifestyle (which is the point, to a degree) however for people who have made that plunge... how do you deal with the seeming need for a phone with secure chip for the endless banking and two factor apps?

I would need a second phone with all bells and whistles which defeats the point.
I don't think anything you describe has to do with semi-conductor issues. MBAs didn't outsource semiconductor manufacturing to China to save money. First, most isn't done in China anyway, second, the price of Fabs became prohibitive and the US govt lacked any strategic plan for semiconductors. Companies had no choice but to go fabless. When IBM, AMD and others started divesting themselves of their fabs, it would have been a great time for a national conversation on the future of that industry. Finally, the cost overhead of the US is just huge, so it isn't just trying to save money it is about being in business or being out of business. You just can't compete in almost any industry if you don't take advantage of cost savings available in other areas of the world.

It is going to get worse with the new stimulus bill as companies now must compete against the government for resources more than ever. You need manual labor? So do all the contractors doing govt jobs. You need engineers? So do all the companies with billion dollar energy contracts. Nothing wrong with this long term, it is going to be the sudden jolt that causes a lot of issues.
Of course they would try to do it - first of all raising interest rates. However they are basically trapped now and it's questionable if they can still control situation. With current debt levels it might be extremely hard to raise rates or sell instruments they hold that were bought with printed money (to take off liquidity of the market). On top of that I would say all the rich and influential are well positioned for high inflation so it's speculation but I wouldn't bet that Fed will choose hard recession scenario...

I consider myself sane, and I would take that option.

What does destroying the economy mean? The factories would still stand. The knowledge, science still exist.

This was about 20 years ago, things maybe different now.

I got hired on the architecture side for GPU's after working a few years. My academic background was computer graphics with a focus on parallel algorithms and performance optimisation. After a couple of years working mostly on low level code, C/C++ and assembly. I got a call from a recruiter.

The semiconductor industry is larger than just Intel and AMD. Like any job, taking some time to look around the career pages should give you a good idea what skills they are interested in.

https://www.nand2tetris.org/ is a nice introduction to the how processors are put together.

That seems to be relatively recent though, originally US based. This is what Wikipedia says about the history:

> Pine64 initially operated as Pine Microsystems Inc. (Fremont, California), founded by TL Lim

> all devices for the Kickstarter campaign were manufactured and sold by Pine Microsystems Inc. based in Fremont, California.

> In January 2020, Pine Microsystems Inc. was dissolved while Pine Store Limited was incorporated on December 5, 2019 in Hong Kong. As of late 2020, the standard form contract of pine64.com binds all orders to the laws of Malaysia, while the products are shipped from warehouses in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, China.

"under the guise of security"

Security is a tradeoff between freedom/convenience and safety. This is true outside of desktop OS as well.

The reason there is a trend to having less rights and more security on the desktop is because of the rising cost of getting hacked. So unless you have a better solution, organizations and consumers will all advocate for more security and less freedom.
Yeah fair. Pretty much every part of the process is bonkers. Just the light sources draw something like 1 megawatt and weigh over 100 tons (for extreme ultraviolet). EUV gets absorbed by everything including air, which is bad, but the light source requires plasma so somehow you need both the plasma and vacuum in the same machine without a window or whatever to separate them. Then the features on the chip are so small that random variance in the spatial distribution of landing photons causes defects. And that's just the light, it's amazing anyone can make the process work at all.

The time is now to dredge and dump, and build fixed oceanic platforms at their territorial extremes, while the construction crews can still breathe air and weld cheaply.

The only motivation any other country has to preserve the EEZ of Tuvalu is to prevent Chinese fishermen from overfishing that part of the ocean into a dead zone, or Chinese excavators drilling all the oil/minerals out of the seabed. So they should play up that aspect, and then they may attract the necessary investment to make a big enough pile of sand at the right coordinates.

Interesting analogy of a dark forest. I'd say the Zen realization is of value here. You can always, at any moment, realize that your sensations and consciousness is all there is. We don't need anything more than to observe what we sense at any moment. I say this because changing our mind doesn't have to be hard arduous work, Zen Buddhists realized that enlightenment is here now, if we have the will to simply see it and accept it.

Regarding machetes, wow. I'd say meditation is more like the calm and the observation of the dark forest, not a machete. A machete is a constant necessity to hack through tough issues. Meditation is the art of doing nothing, of simply noticing what is occurring. In that way, it's more like standing still and observing the jungle, not hacking it.

I like Sam Harris's analogy best. Meditation is taking a calm sail boat ride to wisdom, whereas psychedelics are like being strapped to a rocket. Both will get you places, but one is more likely to crash.
Two ideas: desalination and direct air CO2 capture plants? Though maybe the primary bottleneck isn’t lack of energy, and you don’t want all that expensive equipment idle while you are waiting for excess electricity from renewables.
No. We live in a fiat currency world where every dollar is allowed to leverage 10x. This means that every dollar defaulted on results in the destruction of 10 dollars. Even during the housing crash of 2008, the money supply didn't contract because the government was forced to keep the money supply constant, and if they did not it would lead to cascading failures that would destroy the currency entirely. Allowing the money supply, given all of the moral hazard we've shown so far, would be suicide to the economy.

The Fed's next step is to slow down this inflation, and they will do so by raising rates. The Fed's dot plots shows that they will reach the rate of the 30Y Treasury bill sometime around 2024, but with this data they might bring that up to 2023. This will, like every single other time they set the Fed Funds Rate above the 30YT, cause a recession 6 months afterwards, which will bring down the inflation pressures. Problem resolved?

That's totally standard, and not yet the true problem. The problem is after that. Once we reach that recession the Fed quickly drops the interest rate and that brings us out of the recession. But interest rates are already so low, we've already pumped so many dollars into the system, that it might not cut it. We might get cascading failures, we might get stuck in a depression. This might be the end of the long-term debt cycle.
Paid Development Projects in DAOs?
I've found it hard to effectively employ myself with Web3/DAO freelancing.

I'm a front-end dev with a few years of experience in Web2, both as a full-time employee in a small startup and as a freelancer working for multiple clients. I'm super interested in Web3 – especially DAOs – and would like to contribute more and more to them. However, I'd like to start as a part-time contributor to understand if the space really is a good fit for me.

There are ok-ish platforms like Gitcoin I've used for finding projects. Yet, it feels a bit random which projects you find (and they always seem to be from the same protocols...). I'd like to stay in track of the latest launches – every time I log in Twitter it feels like a new DAO has been launched. A massive FOMO that I miss something...

I know many of my peers face the same problem. That's why my co-founder and I founded Kleoverse (https://www.kleoverse.com/). We gather together all DAOs & open Web3 projects so that you can constantly find a stream of relevant work. Expect to find:

- All relevant DAOs – including those that were just launched!
- Relevant open bounties
- Available grant programs

All projects are always paid in tokens or other monetary rewards!

The selfish idea is to build ourselves a product that helps us to stay on track of the latest developments and get paid well in Web3. But in the same time, we want to help anyone to find the most relevant projects to get started today and earn decent income in Web3!

Man, that's crazy how sudden this car demand surge happened. I was in the market for a Model Y in February 2021 and got mine in March.
From an article covering the congressional testimony by industry experts:

> Hunt, who co-authored a report on the subject [bolstering the US semiconductor workforce at all levels] last year, noted that 40% of the domestic semiconductor workforce is foreign-born and that, despite the field’s growth, the number of U.S.-born graduate students in it has been stagnant for 30 years. He said the U.S. should admit more foreign workers with specialized skills to help satisfy the demand for talent that CHIPS Act funding could spur. In the longer term, he said the U.S. should build up domestic talent, such as through fellowships and ensuring university students have access to equipment used in industry.

https://www.aip.org/fyi/2021/house-hearing-airs-cases-and-ag...

The article touches a few times on the issue of staffing new domestic production facilities. I can't help but think that the prospect of staffing fabs, paid for in no small part by taxpayer dollars, with foreign workers is a recipe for blowback.
USA. I've noticed a few restaurants bumping prices up a buck, but most haven't changed yet.

By galloping inflation, I hope that means wage increases. Inflation is neither bad nor good, until it changes people's behavior. Even then, it's not strictly bad until it spirals out of control. Until then, inflation is in many ways a good thing: higher wages, higher revenues, transferring money from creditors to debtors. These are things many people want more of.
This is something I've been interested in for a good while now, and tried a similar LSD microdosing regimen without any exciting results. However, I also didn't pair the practice with meditation or regular exercise (some, not a lot).

My main question is, how does one get anything like a regular, precise (micro)dose of the psilocybin? Volumetric dilution with LSD seems simple, because I know how much each tab contains and can plan accordingly. Are mushrooms really that regular in compound content?

They faked the bots. They require human physical presence, and a remote controller.

> The Kiwibots do not figure out their own routes. Instead, people in Colombia, the home country of Chavez and his two co-founders, plot “waypoints” for the bots to follow, sending them instructions every five to 10 seconds on where to go.

> On the ground in Berkeley, people also do a lot of robot support. Traveling at 1 to 1½ mph, the bots would take too long to chug to local restaurants, so Kiwi workers pick up the food at restaurants and take it via bikes or scooters to meeting spots around campus to insert into an insulated bag in the bots’ storage compartment.

> The average distance a robot covers for a delivery is about 200 meters (656 feet, or one-eighth of a mile) which makes them fall short of a “last-mile” solution.
