> AFAIK explicit mentions of AHCI are mostly over non-SATA interfaces

No, I'm no expert in this at all, but every motherboard I've had has had an AHCI/IDE mode toggle for its SATA ports.

(Maybe the same thing is sometimes framed as 'legacy' mode vs. not or something? Just not that I've seen.)
Not if they do YCC. Yield curve control. Which they are sort of doing at the tail end of the yield curve. And they did that back in the 40s as well when US had tons of debt from all the spending in the war.

This is making it sound like they're forced to choose their profession and take risks. If I were to guess, the truth is probably completely the opposite - the only reason they got into it was because of the thrill of stuntman work.
Bus in homeless people to do drugs and poop on your steps. That ought to take care of it.
Journals don't "do" anything, but the professors, PIs, postdocs, etc are evaluated for jobs or promotions based on the "quality" of their work approximated by the "quality" of the journals they were able to publish in. A Nature or a Science paper gets you a lot more than an arxiv preprint (in most fields, anyway). My best bet is we need a new way of evaluating scientific work, without relying on proxies like journal impact factors. Not sure what those might be, probably depends on the field.
That’s the old world. Now the Fed buys unlimited amount of any securities it cares to. So it can manipulate all interest rates.
> Another issue Taproot should address is Bitcoin’s limited transaction space, which makes scalability a huge problem

People could use BCH (Bitcoin Cash) and automatically get cheap and fast transactions, because of the huge "transaction space." But BTC backers have done a terrific job of marketing, and to their credit, that's all that really matters.
If you need a case study Detroit successfully lowered values pretty dramatically more than 10 years ago.
I don't think your message will register here. The OG commenter spent the whole comment bashing Google, and the comment doesn't even mention Apple. That should tell you something.
If Google stops Apple from doing so as the OG commenter wants them to, there'd be dozens of hot takes how Google is abusing its platform to prevent Apple from advertising. And the same group of people would be outraged at Google again.
If there was more supply in your area you may have less success charging 750K and getting a sale in the timeframe you’re looking for. Right now landlords have too much power over renters.
The argument is a lazy abdication of responsibility. Also I'm like 90% sure that Hoan Ton-That, Clearview's founder gave the same exact argument for why he built it
Profitable removal organizations would actually allow certain industries to transition more slowly.

Also, if you can close the money loop you can set up good incentives. If the money spigot is funded by the emitters, the capture orgs are directly incentivized to make capture cheaper to make it more attractive to emit, etc. Key to avoid direct public subsidy of said spigot though.
For a short period of time you can increase the supply, but the demand will keep up with it.
It's a great way to look at peril (physical or moral) posts:

"Will I make enough money over my current salary to (1) move substantially closer towards my financial life goals (funding kids' education, house, caring for parents, retirement, etc) & (2) fund my R&R, unemployed, for long enough to put my head and soul back together?"

Often the answer is yes, but it's definitely a different way of looking at a job. Still trying to do a great job, but knowing there's a 1/2/4/8 year expiration date on your working there.

And yes, at the hazard of putting it out there, I'd say believing in the mission vs not is worth ~25% salary to me.

You can increase land value while decreasing housing value. Building high density housing you can build affordable housing on incredibly high land values

Which increases supply temporarily, and demand will keep up because of network effects.
Have you never seen an order book? Do you not get how they work?
Is this so? The price of other assets going up doesn't change the riskiness of the bank's ability to repossess a home, in the chance the borrower becomes delinquent. You're borrowing money for a physical, durable thing in which the bank retains the deed until the debt is paid off. If the benchmark rate remains low, it's hard to imagine mortgage rates going up due to exogenous factors, or you would have expected us to see that in the past 50 years.

If you're considering whether coal plants would exist at all, you need to compare to the price of things like batteries. (Unless we make a ton of nuclear.)
Nope, that had zero success in lowering SF prices and only resulted in some well off people making very callous remarks at the plight of others.

Sure maybe it kept them from going even higher but we don’t have the counterfactual available to ever know.
It comes down to timing, really. Just like most technology fads.

Python is interpreted/dynamic, open source, general-purpose, relatively popular, and is easy to write low-overhead wrappers to C/C++/Fortran libraries. In 2008-2010, when ML took off, Python was the only language with these properties.

Python, however, has its problems: an atrocious concurrency story (GIL, colored coroutines, asyncio vs trio rift, fork is inefficient thanks to GC, etc), highly non-compostable (especially in scientific computing), and package management is broken. The language is also inherently slow (unfixable). It will be replaced by something else eventually.
Detroit had and continues to have an enormous amount of abandoned, decrepit housing that no one wants to buy. Maybe that's why they have low housing prices. I doubt that the city government had much to do with it.
This depends on demand, though. If there are 100,000 people wanting to move there you’d have to build more than 100,000 units which isn’t likely in any US city over a reasonable amount of time.
We can build houses much more efficiently. Build the majority of the house underground and heating and cooling become much less of an issue. We can conserve energy without living in a termite colony.
I'm no expert, but seems there's some sort of feedback loop going on:

* leverage existing property to get new loan (sometimes at mere 20%)

* rent goes up because "market adjustment"

* first home buyer dreams inches further way since less disposable income & higher initial deposit

* property owners accumulate equity even quicker

At least in NZ, PM Jacinda Ardern said multiple times no one's equity should go negative essentially offering protection to property investors (whose main risk is over-leverage).
Also if they do 1) just imagine how much interest payment that would mean for US Govt and all the dollar denominated debt. I think a mere rate raise to 5% will cause the US Treasury to have to pay for another military.
I'll consider rewriting it. That section was about doctrine and aesthetics. For instance, you were talking about the functional component way of writing react, or how I talked about

"If reality falls outside the doctrine and really can't be denied then instead of fixing the assumption more often the orthodoxy is amended. A new wing in politics, a new testament in religion, a new movement in the arts, and a new version in software. It permits the avoidance of admitting
the failures of orthodoxy while permitting a mechanism to address its shortcomings."

I don't think we'll come to an agreement on this and that's fine, it means I am staking a clear and controversial position which is my goal. Honest people can disagree and I really do appreciate your honesty. Thanks
The concentration (in moles/volume) of CO2 in the ocean is higher than in the air, so it's not a bad idea.

One proposal was to do this electrolytically or by electrodialysis. This has been called "Direct Ocean Capture".

This may be considerably cheaper as a CO2 removal technology than DAC.
I find it very hard to shame China over this considering they have one of the most aggressive rollouts of Solar and Nuclear energy in the world, while the US sits around with its thumbs up our collective butts.
Housing is a special story. It doesn't behave according to the standard economic theory of equalizing supply and demand like yogurts or bananas.

Housing is strongly inelastic market, meaning you can't increase supply when there is demand easily

The market is essentially stalled. It doesn't 'clear'. People would rather keep it idle out of the market than rent or sell under price. On top of that it has entered a bubble territory recently in which people buy, not based on their value judgment of the property, but because they expect to offload it to someone else in the future with a profit.

Housing is not a 'supply and demand market dynamic, but a 'greater fool' market dynamic.
Once investors figure out that Bitcoin is the superior investment property after you already have a primary residence the excess speculation will get sucked out of real estate. This may be in the 2024 halving cycle. I say Bitcoin is superior because it's more portable, more fungible, no property tax, and the work of managing the properties doesn't scale linearly with the amount you own. Don't need to worry about bad tenants, government regulation preventing rent collection, wear & tear, list goes on.
At the risk of being contentious, it may be worth considering that there is no place on earth where the demand to live there is truly infinite. This suggests that demand can be sated and prices brought down with sufficient supply.

Of course, there is such a thing as induced demand for housing. Studies of it show that it's not so strong as to eliminate the effect of adding supply to a tight market.

With these in mind, why would we not expect demand to eventually fall behind supply as California approaches something resembling a healthy housing market?
Why would anyone open a new shop in SF? The problems are not new.
AFAIK, the nicest, simplest book that gives a taste of Bayesian probabilistic reasoning is "Model based Machine learning" by John Winn & co. -- http://mbmlbook.com/

It consists of friendly and readable chapters, each based on an example. Note that the book is very basic, and the mathematics & methods are much less sophisticated than other texts (such as the one posted above), but the concepts are elucidated very nicely.
What I hope for is someone to create a fiscal black hole. The more money that is spent to delay the bubble busting, the wider the blast radius will be. Once its size is several multiples of the world GDP, that's when the real fun begins.
Reacts out of the box "useState" along side the unidirectional data flow acts as a lightweight, yet very powerful form of state management.

Redux takes that to the next level but is based on similar principles of "reactive" programming. For complex state heavy applications it's extremely powerful, but often overkill for many smaller applications.
> individual liberties over local land use

The whole problem with NIMBYism is neighbors gaining political power to tell other property owners what they can do with their land. If you're actually for individual liberty over local land use you would be 100% against NIMBYism.

I joined the SA forums when I was 10. I think it did more to mold my personality, sense of humor, and how I view the internet than anything else in my life. I was exposed to things I had no right knowing (it's a wedding band). I'm thankful.

I haven't kept up over the years. This feels eerily like a scene from Gaiman's The Ocean at the End of the Lane.

Things I saw first on SA:

- Micro transactions

- Paid membership for content

- Fail whale (2000 -> 5000 concurrent users)

- Image macros

- Let's play videos

- Moderation policies on racism, etc. way before anything else on the internet self-moderated content at this level

- Libertarian white men in engineering and technology

- Social justice warriors

Some of these aren't unique, but we're talking early, early 2000s for many of these things.
Cities have ways to increase the amount of living space per m2 of land: build up.
Hold on a minute. I was just glancing through this discussion and bumped into your thought here.

Why?

MOS setup to bring an inexpensive microprocessor to market and were successful. In some of the history Chuck Peddle has told, MOS really did not even target the personal computer market initially.

One, it was not quite a thing, and their KIM trainer was aimed at "distributed intelligence", basically embedded type use cases.

Once the ball got rolling, and Apple was a big part of that, using the 6502 gained traction.

Moto, by charging so much for the 6800, and later 6809, missed out on a lot!

Sidebar:

I often wonder what personal computing and video gaming might have looked like had the 6809 been inexpensive and was the basis for all the 6502 machines, or more of them... In terms of capability, the two chips are similar, but the 6809 offered a far more robust instruction set. Maybe it did not matter much overall. The set of possible things is similar enough.

But, I do wonder all the same. Doing really hard, or demanding things with the 6809 has advantages, but I digress big time here!

End sidebar:

In any case, MOS scored! Sold a ton of chips, and why would they be entitled as to get that kind of compensation?

Or, is this snark? Maybe is... LMAO. I probably bit on this when I did not have to. Oh well. Cheers!
At some point a city has a maximum density determined not only by housing but services, transportation and basic things like water.

Given forest fires and insufficient groundwater, I really wonder how this is going to go.

At some point high prices are a signal that a city is full.
I will never understand why so many people are absolutely convinced, on the basis of seemingly no explainable evidence, that basic economics doesn't apply to housing.
> with sufficient supply.

You keep saying this as if supply can be increased arbitrarily. It simply can’t.

You can increase density for short while until you hit limits, but network effects will keep demand increasing as you do.

Obviously demand is not infinite, but there is no reason to suppose that currently desirable places can be made affordable.
People in here seem to be using "most" to mean "people I know personally".

To add another data point, every teacher I know uses at least a third of their "break" for lesson planning. Usually more.
Your "individual liberty" to prevent people from building reasonable amounts of housing on their own land is a pretty shitty liberty that I'm fine with the state trampling. If local control is so important to you then the bluest state in the country is probably not a good fit, Dems generally are not local control maximalists.
I post this pretty much every time this topic comes up:

JSON5 exists, and is quite nice. I've picked it up for configs on a work project and haven't once had an issue due to misconfiguration, unexpected parsing, or friction with leaving a trailing comma or a comment.

The nesting in JSON5 is simple and familiar to pretty much all programmers, unlike deep nesting in TOML which is a huge pain.
Iirc, most cities have not been building enough housing to keep up with demand for a lot of time. Is it really the case that we can’t build to keep up with demand, therefore stopping prices from rising as quickly?
By allowing developers to build a lot more condos.

I know this may be sacrilege to some, but: Consider moving to a less desirable place if you can.

I got priced out of my hometown of Seattle. So I moved to a small town in rural Oregon and I couldn't be happier. The combination of spending comparatively little on housing + a tech salary is hard to beat. I have my own shop!

It feels like freedom, even if it comes at the cost of being near my extended family.
Here’s a popular opinion: YAML, used sparingly, without too much complexity, is fine, and provides a great balance of legibility and data density.

More evidence that the “anti vaxxers,” as they were smeared, were correct that we don’t actually know everything about the vaccine’s long term efficacy.

With only short term effectiveness, at best, nobody can clearly explain why I need to vaccinate my young children who have a 6x risk of myocarditis from the vaccine than from COVID itself.

Can you say more about the work/life balance?

I've heard Facebook's work life balance described as everything from a cushy "engineer retirement home" to a grueling crushing workload that few can handle.

Obviously FB is a big company and it can vary from one manager to another, but I'm interested in hearing more of your perspective.
I had a guy pitch me on Comcast's tech office once.

He said you get to work on cool stuff, but it never actually gets deployed. And that everyone hates your employer, but you'll never get fired.

I definitely see how "work on cool stuff" + "don't worry about getting fired" could be pretty cool, if you don't have any investment in really creating things that are used.

I mean, the suggestion that was made is that increasing supply doesn't work, so I'm asking what's the alternative plan to lower values without any new building?
Goodwillbooks.com had it for $11.50. As an aside, I really love that website. I am not too picky about the books I buy being in perfect condition, so it works out well for me. YMMV.
To be fair, it seems like most people lie - so incredibly honest means more honest than you would believe a person could be.

Yes, and just this time for windows 2k, an OS can bring some nostalgia for certain folks.
If you add enough housing+residents it will lower the values as the places become overcrowded metropolises less people want to live in.

But somewhere like the SF Bay Area has a loooooong way to go before it gets anywhere near that bad. Relative to most of the nation, it can get heaps worse in terms of crowding and QoL and still look exceptionally good. I don't see prices going down anytime soon, except if something like the homeless problem evolves into a continuous stream of violence and structure fires.
As Adam Smith said, the true price of everything is in human labor. Inflation generally raises the cost/price of new labor at the expense of historic labor. Demand for labor is still high, the price will likely continue to increase.

Housing is also not a great comparison metric because it was so perturbed by 2008. New unit starts dropped precipitously and still have not fully recovered: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/HOUST

We know how to build housing quickly and now it's clear there is demand. If the current trend continues it looks like we will again have a housing surplus within the decade.
No they won't. Does anybody think that the West can shame China into doing anything? India may be more receptive to overtures, but China does its own thing, and at this point doesn't care what the West thinks.
There's a big difference between banning the construction of anything and letting people run a junk yard. And TBH inactive farms tend to have a lot of old junk and falling down buildings anyway.

I lived in incorporated and rural areas most my life and it was never a problem.

Plus for every law prohibiting junk yards and nuances, there are laws and HOAs actively doing harm like yard and lawn requirements.

Revoking Proposition 13 is best solution. If boomers had to pay 1% tax on the current value of their CA house they'd quickly downsize.
Why the assumption that coal is always the cheapest and most easily available? Modern solar is so affordable, it's probably a much more realistic option for those rural areas.
I spent a long time trying to implement Noisy Baysian Optimization [1], using both standard libraries and my own understanding, but ultimately I never got it to work very well.

It's a real pity, since a smart optimizer for very noisy functions would be really useful. I was trying to use it for chess engine tuning, since I know Deep Mind used it for tuning AlphaZero. I really wonder how they got it to work well.

Christmas tree farms are the best. You're growing a non-necessary crop that you can ignore harvesting for decades.
You're correct, although I still get the parent poster's point.

You weren't anonymous on SA in the sense that law enforcement couldn't find out who you were, or whatever, unless you used a burner credit card and... never used your own wifi, or whatever.

But you were anonymous in the "Google search results" sense that nobody was expected to publicly share their real names or faces, and what you posted on SA and its ilk didn't necessarily follow you around for the rest of your life.
One thing I don’t understand about the housing debate is why any specific area needs to be “affordable”

If I can’t afford to live in an area, it seems to me the solution is to live somewhere else.

Maybe I’m missing something. I’m open to new ideas here but I really don’t get it.
I was alluding to the antitrust accusations. My comment being placed in the broader context them was perhaps too far-fetched of a hint.
