> The thing that ties both of them is spending money on a non-productive asset, which serves as a costly signal of your wealth

For a common sense person only an expensive painting serves as tool to signal one's wealth.

An expensive NFT is a tool to signal one's foolishness. For all practical purposes it's like paying 6 figures for some bottled air sampled in Times Square and trying to use it as a way to impress people.

You'd get a huge minus both in your wallet as well as your social status. You could be living in Versailles but if you get to the last room and show people your collection of hashes....then you throw all the other 1000 gold plated rooms straight into the bin and your guests will laugh at you.

That is of course unless you preselect people who hang out in /r/NFTs and only ever invite them over. There's only 237k of them.

Let's say 25% would endorse spending 6 figures for an NFT and still think highly of you. So that's 60k people.

You have to preselect among 60k people on the planet, whereas the expensive paintings would get you the admiration of each and every of the 8.2 billion people. No preselection needed.

Again: Common sense.
The technical term for this is “insider risk” and it’s not just confined to phone store workers. Ops People working in mobile phone companies in NOCs and so forth have a lot of power too. Lucky they don’t have any bad apples, right… right? Or a bad actor wouldn’t seek to join them for a contracting job or seek to subvert an existing employee?

The reality is, mobile phone companies never started out to be identity providers. App developers did that.
California is prone to earthquakes so we don't really like brick buildings here.
This makes me feel old. But also glad. I'm glad I experienced web dev before the current pile of abstractions, painful convenience tools and frameworks were lumped upon us. It was fun back then. Now it's a pain.
Is there something that you actually believe is deceitful here? Is it the analysis of the impact of expanding the Fire District? Is it the data about the impact on building costs? Is it the claims about whether wood-framed buildings are safe enough?

Refusing to read and consider arguments from people you disagree with isn't a particularly useful strategy for gaining knowledge about a topic.
Here is an optimistic way to calculate. If there are 55M shares outstanding, then 400,000 options represents about 0.7% of the company. You need to make your own estimate for how much the company is worth right now. If the company raised around $10M total, then knowing nothing else, a reasonable guess is that the company is worth about $40M total. That would make the underlying stock of your options worth about $280k, you can subtract the cost to exercise, maybe it ends up being a bit lower like $240k. It's over four years, so that's roughly $60k a year.

So, even in the optimistic case, your option package isn't that great. Your company is offering a pretty low cash comp, and unsurprisingly, they're also offering a low option comp. A good company would offer more to someone even with zero years of experience (assuming you're a software engineer). And this is an optimistic evaluation where you really believe in the startup. Your comp is low, ask for a bigger raise or just switch jobs unless you really like it there.
The other thing is earthquake safety. Wood frame is often far more resilient to sheer stress than concrete/brick. Concrete can be reinforced to mitigate that, but I wonder how viable that is for buildings on the scale of SFH, not major developments.
The message should have read "You were speaking to one of our agents who indicated in the last minute or so they would send you a confirmation code. The code is XXXXX. Do not give this to anyone unless you initiated contact with our bank." Or... something closer to the actual scenario as it was playing out.
this is exactly what regulatory capture looks like, deceptive and anti-progressive (expressly without the typical political association). as such, every ballot measure should be a default 'no' unless you thoroughly understand the second- and third-order implications of the measure, not just because it sounds good on the surface.

I wonder what the OOP version of that would look like. Trivially, you can imagine that an assembling machine is an object to which you can send a message CopperPlate, and that will reply with CopperWire, CopperWire. I've been thinking about factories like you see in "How it's made" and how you can imagine the machines in terms of functions with an input and an output, object to which you pass something and receive something back, or even "ingredient flow" where the focus is on the product and the different steps and not the transformations.

>You are aware a catalytic converter is a wear part that is a component of the exhaust system, right? You want a block disassembly to replace a part so understood to be a wear part it’s covered by US federal warranty to 80,000 miles? You just added at least eight hours of labor — which in major metros can reach $300/hr — and risk to a one hour job. There are absolutely zero reasons to open a block unless the engine itself is imperiled or under inspection. Blocks are notoriously difficult to reassemble to spec and the idea is to avoid opening them as long as possible.

I agree with you that it makes perfect sense to not put it directly on the engine block for the reasons you list, but if you've worked on cars in the last few decades you'd also agree planning for servicing is of approximately zero consideration in their design!

From the article: "You plant the forest but you don't start seeing carbon retention and sequestration happening for at least 10 years after they're planted, so there's a long lag time in doing that"

Because some of us started out in the nineties and like to get a quick update on what is possible in case we need it somewhere and web design isn't our main responsibility.

In fact, the single most important resource I wish for of this kind, would be a reference page that shows all common layouts and tech-stack agnostic examples of popups, overlays, off-canvas sidebars and such using the most up-to-date implementation so we wouldn't have to include a huge CSS framework for something that's a few lines of modern CSS supported by evergreen browsers.
Between 2007 and 2009, Internet Explorer 6 was still a thing. It was incredibly daring on YouTube’s part to put up a “Internet Explorer is deprecated” banner back in 2009; it had to be done without official approval. [1]

In 2011, “display: table” was cutting edge; we finally had few enough IE6 and IE7 users that it was practical to pull off, albeit with “<!--[if IE lt 8]><table><tr><td><![endif]-->” hacks.

I still had to deal with IE-specific bugs like the fact webfonts didn’t work in IE8 when put in an IFRAME — but did work in IE9 when rendering in IE8 mode. This wasn’t limited to IE: Safari had a bug where you couldn’t legibly print a page with webfonts on them, requiring a Safari-specific hack to disable webfonts in the print CSS.

Professional web developers were not using stuff like “display: flex” or “display: grid” in production until the late 2010s, when Edge and Chrome was finally reducing the number of Internet Explorer uses to a sane level.

>Still, regulated how? What you're talking about is criminal activity. Are regulations the antidote to that?

Yes, the creation of a regulation with a civil (cash) and personal (imprisonment) penalty is required in order to create enforcement actions. Then you load up a van full of Catalytic converters and drive to metal places and offer to sell them, if they accept, they arrest who ever accepted and seize assets of the owning entity.
This is just goofy. Timber-framed structures do well in earthquakes, and while they catch fire often enough during construction, once fire sprinklers are installed and people live there, serious residential apartment fires in modern construction are really rare. The most recent fire that comes to mind is Grenfell Tower, but it's larger than you'd normally use wood for.

Dick Smith is a legend. Great sense of humour, prioritising philanthropy and buying local.

My favourite product of his was the parody of Redhead Matches, a box of matches with a woman’s face on it. Dick sold matches called “Dickheads”, with his face on them.

A friend of mine growing up had Dick perform an emergency landing on their property (in his plane). He must still be an avid flyer as we both attended the same aviation event a couple of years ago in a rural Australian town.
As someone who has lived in the US and Europe, I have made similar jokes. That said I've come to realize there's many advantages to the US way and in some respects the house I grew up in was massively overbuild:

Advantages of timber frame:

* Safer in earthquake
* Easier to do remodeling tasks like changing layouts, plumbing, wiring
* Easier to DIY
* Cheaper

Most of the apparent disadvantages can be offset:

* I've never seen it happen, but you are right drywall is easily damaged. It's also easily replaced though.
* Noise and thermal insulation can be added
* Flammability is mitigated with firestops, fire resistant drywall and codes that require multiple points of egress. Larger wood buildings have sprinklers.

At this point I mostly have aesthetic complaints.

It has had first-class support for Linux and MacOS for the past five years so that certainly isn't the case these days. I actually develop C# applications on Mac and run them in production on Ubuntu, no Windows involved in the toolchain anymore.
Maybe this is driven by the increase in disposable income.

Many avid gamers likely want the best possible rig (in terms of computing power) they can comfortably afford. Hardware vendors try to meet this demand.

Powerful setups are useless without games that benefit from power. This creates a demand for super highres graphics, even though those might not add much to the actual gameplay experience.

> Many Texans conceptualize government and state uses of force (ie prosecution that can lead to imprisonment) as restrictions on their rights. This "negative rights" conceptualization is pretty common in the US, but especially common in Texas

So, the government/state has guaranteed a negative right to life, i.e. citizens are prohibited from actions that deprive someone's right to life, and in order to enforce this prohibition, citizens are deprived of their right to arbitrarily commit violence to each other, while the government/state has a monopoly.

Where does our right to arbitrarily commit violence come from? Is it just a "natural right"?

Real Engineering is done in imperative style. There are very very few projects done in pure functional style.

But you don't need to trust me. It's probably about 50 lines of C to code up a file tree walk recursion and test it yourself.
So when I hit Play, it starts with the first release and ends with the newest release. Default is usually alphabetical by release-title, which is absurd.

You're not alone in these preferences, This is how I always ordered my CDs back when that was how I listened to music. It wasn't uncommon to see album collections ordered this way, either. Fiction on my shelves mostly alphabetized by author, then chronological within an author's section, with exceptions often made to put a series together; I've seen that in a lot of personal libraries.

Apple Music on the desktop does let you order stuff by artist and then by year, visit the View menu. It's a setting you have to make for every playlist/Library section. Dunno if the iOS version lets you do it.

It's pretty common these days to build "five over one" construction. This is typically a 3-6 floors of wood frame construction (Type 5 in some codes) over 1 or two floors of concrete (Type 1)[1]. It's a cheap way to build mid-rise buildings which would be banned by this proposal.

[1] Sometimes this is explained as the "five over one" meaning five floors of wood over one floor of concrete, rather than a reference to building codes. Either way the concept is the same.
PowerPC also had instructions like "rlwimi." with five operands plus implicitly cr0. It's rather startlingly complex for a "RISC" architecture.

It's a tradeoff I suppose. Some people are used to "Facebook" and some people are used to "www.facebook.com" (Apps vs webpages). I think Google are trying to move the web to a more app based setup, where you only see the Facebook logo and the Facebook name. Of course that's a security risk because you can't see the domain name to verify, so they do the closest thing they can and only show you the root domain

> Or equally it could be read as comment that companies should be passing some of their WFH savings on to employees rather than shareholders.

There's nothing about savings mentioned, just costs. Now you could really stretch the meaning of cost to possibly include inversion of value, but that's incongruous with the vernacular used in the article and is not even hinted at. Based on these things, I wouldn't agree with the interpretation of "costs".

Corporate welfare (savings go to value/bonuses/shareholders, costs go to customers) is a the norm in the US. This article goes one step farther to suggest there are costs that are being passed to the employees. It makes no sense when faced with reality, playing as FUD.
