It's a fundamental flaw in the axes, though. There is no such thing as "lib-left," because the left economic wing is fundamentally authoritarian. You cannot have arbitrary distribution of resources without authoritarianism. The only way to make any sense of the political compass is to say that the vertical axis is authoritarian vs libertarian, and the left/right is egalitarian distribution (still authoritarian) vs libertarian (free markets). So the only true liberal/libertarian position is LibRight, but we accept LibLeft as "anti-authoritarian" because, while they're economically authoritarian, we've agreed to peel that off onto an independent axis.
You should ask yourself why it is that American academics seem to almost universally hold left wing freduo-marxist-post-modernist views. I love to bash on fashionable nonsense as much as the next HN reader, but it may actually have to do with there being something essential to the process of education that finds those who pursue large amounts of it to favor egalitarian social and economic politics.

I look at the academy being leftist as a sign that they are genuine about education being a force for equality. Sure, sometimes the left goes "too far", but the principles behind it are the only ones compatible with modern academia.

Conservatives rejection of academic philosophy is one of the reasons why the "parallel" institutions of conservative universities are a laughing stock in the USA and around the world. I trigger conservatives sometimes by reminding them that they can't code because they hate liberal education and refuse to go to anywhere with a prestigious CS program. If a Marxist professor at Berkeley is what keeps trump from having effective web developers on his team, than it looks like I just became a Marxist...
Oh, for sure. Reconciling a bunch of different things' ideas of what libturkey they think they need into a single image must be a nightmare. In theory, that's what BuildStream should be helping with since gnome-build-meta[1] is only going to have one of those for different components to depend on. (If there were two libturkeys, it would be very obviously wrong). But I guess the trouble then is a lot of extra apps aren't in gnome-build-meta?

When I was messing with BuildStream a while ago I found myself wishing projects put reference BuildStream elements in their own git repos, but I suppose that would get messed up in the same way.

> the company's two-acre farm produces similar yields to a 720-acre outdoor farm.

It is incredible to me that the increased crop yield comes with such a smaller unit of land requirement.
Move all the coins to a new wallet.

Make that wallet have a split private key, such that say there are 13 keys, and any 9 are required to access the funds.

Distribute those 13 keys, on paper, in sealed envelopes, to 13 different locations. Make each location have at least basic access control - either a door lock, or held by someone you trust with specific instructions about who is allowed to access the paper.

Distribute instructions to trusted friends on where to find the 13 things, and what conditions are needed to access them. For example "Hand over to londons_explorer only. If you know he is dead, hand the key to XYZ person. If you cannot contact XYZ for over 5 years, destroy the envelope."

I didn’t say your take was outdated. I said it was interesting and was curious to know more.
This made me think - and I've still not managed to produce a coherent viewpoint.

Closest I can come up with is that there's some sort of asymmetric 'value' that sometimes appears from nowhere and this throws us off a bit.

As people have mentioned, security cameras are filming me all the time - and I've no issue with that. My image has no value. It's one amongst billions of frames taken, that will be ultimately wiped, unseen and uncared about. I don't care about the image as I know the owner doesn't - there's a balance.

If one of these frames was taken by a photographer deliberately - then suddenly I care more. Why did he take it? What was I doing? Where will it be shown? To whom will it be shown? What will they think of me, based upon it etc etc.

By taking that image, they've assigned value to it - but where's the value been taken from?

Maybe it's like the wind and there's 'value' going to waste all around us and the photo is just like putting up a turbine or a sail to capture it?

Maybe it's like somebody mining for diamonds under my house - they've found some value in something I didn't know I had, but I now want my share.

Maybe it's the concept of part of your soul being captured in the photo. That photo can be shown and might provoke a response to me, but I no longer have any control over it.

Maybe it's the flip side of social media, where you can choose the thoughts and images you wish to push to the world as your representation - except you didn't choose it and you don't have a reply or delete button next to it.

Houses are not zero-sum, as it's possible to build more.

Even for land, the value is all about how developed it is, which is not zero-sum: one can always develop more land.

In England for example, known as a densely-packed country, only about 2% of land is actually built on, and of that 2% only a tiny fraction is actually dense.

Employers that standardize on a single IDE (e.g., enterprise Java shops and eclipse - blech) are always terrible places to work.
i thought it was pretty clear i meant the consumer arm ecosystem in general but thanks for chiming in & clarifying. yup.

usb4's ability to transport a variety of protocols across the switched network seems perfect. reviews like the Plugable tb4 hub show video and data intermixing nicely[1]. the complexity seems scary but in my mind it feels utterly & completely justified, and it builds atop the world we have & makes it better, quietly fixes the underpinnings, rather than insisting on re-invention. thunderbolt hasn't been flawless but it's been a niche product, a luxury product, and we'll quickly gain the experience to make it as pleasant bulletproof & flawless as one might hope for. already, reviews like the one i cited don't come with caveats or speed bumps: they show a working, satisfying consumer experience. there's a lot of afraidness of thunderbolt & usb4, but i for one think we ought to dial down our resistances & afraidness.

that said, i also think the door is totally open to new interconnects emerging. i'd love to see cxl or gen-z (recently folded into cxl) or opencapi or rapidio or whatever become consumerized.

Well, this is how progress happens. Someone complains about a whole industry in broad brushstrokes, someone else invalidates the complaint with a counter example, and we move forward with the better option.
I'm glad we can find common ground about the evils of factory farming. You're right, my perspective comes from America where 99% of animals are factory farmed. I do take less issue with the small scale sort of farming you describe (although personally I still wouldn't consume it, because I think food can be healthy and delicious without it).

My worry is the trend is not going in the right direction. The world is eating more and more meat, the rest of the world adopting the Standard American Diet. This level of consumption can only continue by expanding factory farming. Especially as we add a couple of billion more people over the coming decades and they want to eat meat like the rich countries do. Most people just don't care where their food comes from (not all, I take it you are among the few who do care). So the way I see it, the only way out is for people to really change how they see food and whether we should be eating animals at all. Because they're not going to take the effort to figure out where and how their meat/dairy came to be every time they eat it.
Yes I wouldn't get hung up too much on whether it's a left or a right thing, that's why I specifically isolated the "progressive" vs "conservative" aspect. There's also an element of "populism" vs "elites" going on, which is language that can be leveraged by either the left or the right.
This is specifically not what this is. Banks in Japan have a central role in the economy so the govt has no wish to remove the ability of banks to create money (they are also have a lot of political power). The digital currency will be backed by bank deposits, and the aim of this appears to be creating a interbank payments system that can run with lower costs.
What if parrots also charged interest but the rates are just that low?
Yes, I care. Because while jetbrains makes an excellent IDE in terms of functionality, they have extremely shitty startup times and garbage collection pauses. These are both areas that have received a lot of attention in the reference JVM in the versions subsequent to their fork. All of the performance problems literally disappear by using a newer OpenJDK version, but then the GUI starts to look and act weird.

I don't know why you would assume that I am asking for them to not package a JDK at all. That's a fucking absurd assumption, and nothing i have said has even suggested that. All I'm asking for is for them to upstream their improvements and package their IDEs with OpenJDK by default so we don't have to choose between Jetbrains improvements or OpenJDK improvements.

You're not half as amazed as Xi is.

> Yes, it will raise prices in the short and medium-term,

Right now we have cutting-edge fabs in Taiwan and Korea. If we were to follow your recommendation, we would also have them in PRC, USA, Japan, Germany, the UK, India, France, Italy, Canada, and Russia, at least. In fact, that's more or less how things used to be. The difficulty is that this would mean increasing world fab investment by a factor of 6, which would probably make them all unprofitable until chip prices also increased by a factor of 6. Permanently.

However, there is still one country that uses this policy: North Korea.

> I am still amazed by the shortsightedness of how these critical and strategic goods are off-shore.

At what point do goods go from being non-critical/strategic to being critical/strategic? At what point did car companies have to worry about chips being "critical"? At what point did smartphones become "critical" to people's lives?

Things were not critical at all, and then when few people were looking, they moved across the spectrum to an area part that is considered critical by some measure.
Seems kind of crazy to leave that amount on an exchange at all.
It'd be worth doing a deep dive into this - you can look at the compiler's intermediate representation to understand why it didn't make an optimisation. There may be something trivial getting in the way.
Yes, I'm not disagreeing with your main point. I just had first hand experience with Spivak.

Your point reminds me of an experience I had in grad school. A good friend in the program was from (communist) Romania. We were both looking at the weekly math challenge that one of our professors posted in the hallway. It was something like construct with compass and straightedge the eight circles that are tangent to all three given (arbitrary sized and positioned) circles.

I was good at geometry in school, very good, head and shoulders above my fellow students. I really had no idea how to solve the problem and was fumbling around with it when I Romanian friend took a look and knew the correct approach immediately. It involved an isomorphic mapping of the circles into some alternate collection of straight line segments, solving the problem in that space, and then inverting the isomorphism (I think. It was many years ago--before the fall of the Berlin Wall). His high school training in geometry was clearly much deeper than mine was.

People think their internet connection is Layer4 (TCP) -> Layer3 (IP) -> Layer2 (Ethernet) -> Layer1 (Wires), but that's wrong.

Its really Layer4 (TCP) -> Layer3 (IP) -> Layer2 (Ethernet) -> Layer 3 (PCIe) -> Layer 2 (PCIe frames) -> Layer 1 (PCIe wires) -> reinterpret PCIe on the Ethernet-controller -> Layer1 (Ethernet wires).

There's a bunch of "networks" in-between our networks that we use. That's why OSI model exists, to understand each different network and each of the different rules behind them all.

When a good network is abstracted away, you can ignore all the details.

EDIT: It might not even be Layer2(Ethernet) -> Layer3 (PCIe)... on a NUMA-system it could be Layer2(Ethernet) -> Layer2 (NUMA / MESI messages to CPU#2) -> Layer2 (Southbridge communications) -> Layer3(PCIe)...
> The idea that the internet should not involve the state is, honestly, pretty weird when you try comparing it to other stuff.

The "inter" in internet implies that there is no single entity that administers it. It is a network of networks, based on cooperation.

Although I agree in principal that enforcing standards has been (and arguably should be) in the domain of government functions, I feel the principal of keeping the "inter" in "internet" is more important. I'd love to see an incentivized conversion to IPv6, but there are many other incentivized conversions that I would wholly oppose. Thus I would prefer not to see government intervention in internet protocols.
US has plenty of space. And unlike Europe, you can easily find a large "mostly empty" patch of land.

Not sure why you're being downvoted for providing a good answer here. When you use Bitcoin, or cash it is solely your responsibility to protect that counterparty risk via your own means. Without a contract and receipt, the same would happen to your cash if you walked into a business and the owner decided to keep a small sum of your money with no record of transaction. If you gave a shop owner or autobody mechanic $50-500 cash with no receipt he could very easily just keep your cash. You have no recourse. Call the police? Doesn't matter in real life because you have no receipt or contract. It's your word against his. Since I see that you've just replied and still want "recourse" if someone steals your money I'll just clearly spell that out for you. You cause the level of recourse of your stolen money that you require. Whether via violence or a counter-theft and damage to the thief equaling what was stolen from you. It's left up to you with Bitcoin. If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. We don't want government intervention.
It leaves you pretty close to the edge of paying 8.5+ cents/GB when you go over though.
You are making a lot of extraordinary claims, with no sources to back them up.

My guess is that you work in software (like many on this site) and are making the Dunning-Kruger mistake of thinking that you know more than you actually do about teaching and libraries. Instead, I'd encourage you to imagine how you would feel if legislators started talking about banning "dangerous, anti-capitalist operating systems like Linux".

In any case, "I guess that...<wild conspiracy theory>" is not a reasonable basis for legislation, which is why these legislators are correctly being criticized.
For example, you take your ill-gotten gains and just randomly send $1 to a
million different addresses, some owned by you, some owned by random people or
exchanges or whatever. Nobody's going to say no to free money, so the trail
goes cold.

This one wouldn't really cause the trail to go cold though. It would be trivial to automate the tracking and if all of those funds end up in a single location eventually that would also be trivial to automate tracking. You really would need to do a Mixing with other counterparties to get any kind of anonymity. Even then mixing can be detangled as well.
Yes I understand what the political compass purportedly states, but the fact is that the economic axis is not devoid of authoritarianism. If the left axis is about arbitrary allocation of resources (in this case, in accordance with some egalitarian distribution scheme), then it is authoritarian. That doesn't make it bad or good, it's just authoritarian.

Therefore, the best way to reason about the common political compass is that the vertical axis is authoritarianism vs libertarianism, and the horizontal axis is economic authoritarianism vs economic libertarianism.
Idea behind Foam is that they use GitHub and vscode features - answering on your question, I didn't find any extension with this feature.
But more interesting question, do you really need this "copy/paste" feature in your research (or just simple notes)?

I was wondering if the both were to achieve similar goals it makes no sense to run them both, but now I can educate myself.
That's probably because they are a very niche OS, while flatpak seems to be gaining in popularity.

That sounds like regular old cryptography, which I don't think anyone would argue isn't important. It's a very different discussion than "crypto" a.k.a cryptocurrencies.
I get what you mean, but... the color profile of the image is the profile of the display where the image can be displayed without adjustment. Think of it as the display profile of the guy that sent you the image. The magic math transforms the image to your display profile. That means it will look exactly the same on both displays. If they both have a correct display profile.

If your green is going pink, then either your profiles are wrong, or your software is broken. Maybe it really is pink, and it just looks green for you, because you're ignoring color profiles.

But the fact is, most software is broken, and you should store images with the sRGB profile.

And also, you can actually calibrate consumer hardware, so that you can scan a photo, and reprint it. And the scan, display, and print will look exactly the same. (It's not the case by default, because consumer printers do what you do, stretch or fit the color space to the printer's. The Vivid and Natural profiles in the driver, respectively. This is a good default for documents, not for professional photography.)
Twenty years from now, when 10,000 baby boomers are dying every day, housing prices will be in free fall, with no end in sight. That's too late for most of us, but today's small children will have no problem buying a house as adults, if they even want one.
The US did produce its own sufficient supply of rare earths and silicon for decades, they occur everywhere, mainstream semiconductors don't contain any rare earths, and I suggest you at least skim a Wikipedia article on a relevant topic before writing your next HN comment.

The problem is that economists still require fiscal accountability for the government, which was a rule to mainly prevent runaway inflation. This is obviously counter-productive to what they want right now. There should be a policy framework to allow the central bank to just directly invest in the economy, no need for government to incur debt.

VSCode is a "real" IDE.

> The features language servers provide are only some of the many things that IDE users have had for literally decades.

Yes of course, because that's what they were explicitly designed to do. The novel thing about language servers isn't that they enable code intelligence features like auto-complete and variable renaming. It's that they do so over a standard protocol that any editor or IDE (or website or CI system or ...) can use.
Like the author said this is completely unoptimized. The natural next step in optimization might be to profile and then SIMD optimize the slow bits in compression and decompression. This would likely produce a significant speedup and may even bridge the gap with lz4.
