> "The value of the stock is relative to the performance of the company"

That's true if companies are evaluated on their fundamentals.

If you start to deal with stocks as if they were meme coins, with no concern of cash flows or business models or profitability, and you add a decade of quantitative easing, then you get stocks like Tesla, and a stock market that's driven by the need to park free cash no matter how risky and absurd the investment is.
That Singapore was a reasonable well off place in the 50's was the impression I got from reading Burgess.
I've told you specifically what I was referring to, and you are continuing to dispute what I was telling you. The same vagueness applies to imchillyb's comment, yet you seem to find no fault with that.
I've worked in cities around the world and never seen elsewhere this particular kind of gap in opportunity based on where you are from as demonstrated in Singapore.

But my example was just one example of this inequality. It can really weigh you down to live in it for some time if you are from a country with much more general freedom and attempts at social equality (i.e. much of europe or even the U.S.).
The point is that ranting about it here can't directly fix the problem. Sure, it can keep the topic of accessible/usable web development in people's minds, but it likely already is for most web developers using this site. Where a specific page/site is concerned, the person to complain to is the operator of the site hosting the relevant content - i.e., the person/group who can actually do something about it.

They could take days off that aren't scheduled if they were skilled or non disposable workers or if they chose a job without a shitty boss. Whose fault is it to work with a shitty boss? If you stay in an abusive relationship, who chose to stay?

Well ageism is a bitch in our sector, but you certainly have to have in mind that maybe for the same reason past-entrepreneurs are frowned upon, if they know you don't need the money, they know they can't force you to do stuff you don't want...

It's a bit like when they want to know if you've family/responsabilities, I doubt it is to pay you a salary going with those, but more to gauge if you'll be a good slave or not...

Anyways, if I was in your position, I would do whatever I want, but without working for a company anyways, is not fuck you money (or attitude) at leaat, if you still have to obey the boss on all the bullshit right?

Wouldn't SMT be a feature that you are free to use when designing your own cores? I'm assuming Amazon has an architectural license (Annapurna acquisition probably had them, this team is likely the Graviton design team at AWS). So who is the upstream provider? ARM?

And if they designed the CPU wouldn't they decide which memory controller is appropriate? Seems like AWS should get as much credit for their CPUs as Apple gets for theirs.

Bottom line for Graviton is that a lot of AWS customers rely on open source software that already works well on ARM. And the AWS customer themselves often write their code in a language that will work just as well on ARM. So AWS can offer it's customers tremendous value with minimal transition pain. But sure, if you have a CPU-bound workload, it'll do better on EPYC or Xeon than Graviton.

> Lots of movement around unique items, characters, or more generally control of virtual property and managing them through a blockchain so as to allow use across gaming platforms.

Come again? Platforms as in different games? Then one would need the cooperation of the games publishers to make the items shareable. Platforms as in different devices? No different. Why does this need blockchain? A cenral authority works just fine. Is it to prevent scammers? Hah, I've read 1 too many "smart contract exploits" to know scammers will just concentrate on that.
The article that @diveanon and @dannypovolotski are berating is a good learning resource.

Also, these two evergreen articles:

- "Ten years in, nobody has come up with a use for blockchain", https://hackernoon.com/ten-years-in-nobody-has-come-up-with-...

- And the sequel, "Blockchain is not only crappy technology but a bad vision for the future", https://medium.com/@kaistinchcombe/decentralized-and-trustle...

Any other "learning resource" about web3 are either thinly veiled scams, or can be solved with literally any other tech with none of the problems inherent in blockchains.

> Isn't that one of the most basic properties of supply and demand though.

The most basic property of supply and demand is that price is determined by the interaction of supply and demand, so a fixing the supply alone determines nothing at all about its value, which is why the incessant pumping is necessary. The cryptoproponent's argument that cryptocurrencies must increase in value because there are hard limits on their growth rate is a cargo cult version of the law of supply and demand made to serve the pump

On another note, I was depressed and isolated a couple years ago after a breakup, living alone in a city on the other side of the country from my family and friends. Ultimately what got me out of my rut was regular exercise at the gym and reading Feeling Good by David Burns.

I can't recommend that book enough. Much of the philosophy behind it is rooted in Greek Stoicism, so if you just wanna cut to that maybe take a look at Marcus Aurelius or William Irvine's Guide to the Good Life.

What's important though is to not spend your energy trying to meet some invisible metric of "being useful", and instead be able to recognize the cognitive distortions that are causing you to be depressed.
> once you send an attenuated capability to someone else, you've lost it

I'm not sure what you mean here.

For example, if Alice sends a token to Bob giving Bob a capability, Alice can sign it with her private key and Bob's public key, such that if Bob (or anyone else) wants to use that capability, they have to have Bob's private key to do so.

Why Inkjet Photo Printers Are So Bad
The extremely low height limit is also influenced by gameplay: many voxel games let you run up slopes that vary by only a single vertical step, but Minecraft forces you to jump to climb, which is much slower. Nobody wants to jump 16,000 times just to get over a mountain range. On the other hand, while I actually really like the traversal and movement in Minecraft and I wouldn't want to change it, the current height and generation limits really are just too low to create anything truly majestic. The new update has increased the limits by 128 (64 blocks each above and below the prior limit, for new extreme Y coords of 320 and -64), which is a welcome change, but IMO they could have gone a bit higher.

And? The demand for an asset is tied to its utility. You can't just assume that the demand will continue to increase forever, but that's exactly what the notion of "deflationary asset" implies.

As noted by other people, your idea, especially in its final version, has already been proposed.

The basic problem with the proposal is that it fundamentally misunderstands how the economics of spam works. Especially when it comes to the idea of using proof-of-CPU time to generate the cost to send mail. Spam generally comes from compromised machines, so the people who would actually be paying the cost of sending mail are not the spammers, but those who own the compromised systems. In effect, you'd be making everyone but the spammers pay for their email. (And the idea of being able to pay extra to get higher priority is going to be a godsend to spammers--historically, spammers were the most eager to implement anti-spam technologies such as SPF because of the boost it gives the spam.)
I think it's still fairly mainstream in Vedic scholarship that "soma" mentioned in ancient India was a psychoactive mushroom, even though which one is still contentious.

Regardless as to whether Eth is currently overpriced, real people pay gas fees to the Ethereum network to use the services it provides. And regardless as to how you feel about value of those services, to those people who are paying those fees, those services do have value.

In other words, the price of Eth is derived in part from real demand for the use of the services of the Ethereum network. If speculative interest in Eth were to completely collapse, its price would not go to zero, because demand for the use of the Ethereum network would sustain it.

I imagine that you would argue that demand for Ethereum network services is itself driven by pyramid schemes, and is therefore inflated. Perhaps. That does not mean, however, that Ethereum itself is a pyramid scheme. And certainly not all of the demand for Ethereum services is illegitimate.

A pyramid scheme requires that cashing out of one's investment depend on new investment money entering the scheme. It is not unreasonable, however, to purchase Ethereum with the hope that the price will go up because it will need to be purchased by users of the network, who will pay higher prices in the future when demand for the network's services goes up.

You can disagree with this proposition without calling Ethereum a pyramid scheme. Just because you think Eth is a bad investment does not necessarily mean that it is a pyramid scheme.
This is laughably false and easily disproved by even a cursory search of who is putting time and money into this space.

What is more green? Coal or natural gas plants, AC lines that lose some power, building transformers, using AC to DC converters for all our power supplies, refining rare earth minerals to make decaying chemical cells, and using brushless motors (I think?) versus oil drilling with huge machines, refineries, transport and risks of oil spills, and building combustion engines? ICE looks like it can be way more efficient.

Aside from capability, the relationship between the US and European countries is so biased towards the US that, politically, I just don't think they'd risk it.

The US spies on everyone because they can, and because they have prepared to do basically anything they think might be in their interests; when Germany discovers the US spying on them, what can they really do about it? Whereas if it was the other way, all hell would break loose.
The Rescue, of twelve boys from deep inside a flooded cave in Thailand
I want to be explicit about this: i have no beef against Christianity or religion in general. I'm atheist. I don't care. Believe in what you want. I'm perfectly happy to hang out with christians, Muslims, anything.

However, as i said upthread, American Christianity as a whole is gross. I don't blame most individuals and do realize that most aren't like this (or well ... Not as outspoken; a lot of them believe in the crass stuff but they dance around it and sweep it under the carpet, pretend it's fine).

This isn't what this thread was about though. It's about the general view, by American christians, of what Jesus is and represents now. And to me it's pretty clear that for the great majority of those, Jesus represents a lot of convenient, generally right wing beliefs. Jesus is the lord and savior of gun rights, of straightwhiteness, of telling women what to do with their body, of telling immigrants to fuck off, of a variety of US constitutional amendments, and if you disagree well too bad you're living in sin.

None of these things are things Jesus does represent. Obviously, i should say, but it's not so obvious for many anymore. These tend to be the opposite of what he represents and of what religion in theory has to offer.

IMO it's the culmination of religion becoming more fringe in the west... Thesis for another day.

Okay. In what world would any retail consumer accept a Bitcoin-denominated account based on marginal Bitcoin reserves? Exchanges would be forced to purchase on the open market to meet their withdrawals during demand, which would cause another deflationary spiral.

By the way, you can group your upvoted content into channels. For example, if you are interested in tech news and food, you can create a channel for each interest. And then people who like you "food" upvotes will see your other "food" upvotes but not your "tech news" upvotes and vice versa. This would create more coherent groupings.

What we need is a trustless trust infrastructure on which identities can be verified by anyone. Governments around the globe can verify their citizen's and companies identities as well as each others, until we have a decentralized network of trust that includes all people and relevant corporal and organisational entities. Emails are signed by all of these entities, and people choose which emails they'd like to consider through choosing trust providers, a role that'd be taken by governments or other organisations. Hence we get a distinction of emails generated by people and corporate accounts; and corporate accounts can be blocked until their communication behavior is determined acceptable. Communication challenges between corps and people suddenly are worth being treated right because they can be closed any second. Communication channels between pairs of entities _exist_, that's the first innovation actually.
$90B isn’t that big though? That is, I don’t think ‘$90B industry’ should mean ‘big important thing’ for example I picked some others at random and for the steel industry I get $100–200B though that might be limited to certain types of steel in the US (and I’m not really sure what these numbers are measuring anyway), and for cloud computing I get a ‘market size’ of $200–250B. I don’t really know if those numbers are particularly comparable or representative of non-gaming industries.

Cities are usually much greener and more environmentally because of the density of people. The same population in a rural area would need a lot more fuel for cars (as you couldn't offer public transit). They'd have much bigger houses (needing more fuel to heat and electricity to light/cool). One of the greenest things people can do it move to the city.
