"1) Say you have an account at FooBank with a balance of $1000, and I have an account there with a balance of $0. The total supply of money at this point is $1000.

2) I apply for a loan of $1000 and get it. My account now has a balance of $1000, and your account still has a balance of $1000. The total supply of money is now $2000!"

The money supply didn't change as far as I can see.

At first:
Me: $1000, FooBank: $-1000, You: $0

After your loan:
Me: $1000, FooBank: $0, You: -$1000

The sum was $2000 before and $2000 after. Do you have an issue with any of the six numbers above?

You could, I suppose, say "I prefer to count the proceeds of my loan, rather than the debt, and not use a negative sign". Ok, but since we're adding the absolute values to get the total, it's still the same number.

After working it out painfully and slowly, it seems to me where you're going wrong is you think there is a fundamental difference between deposits and loans, other than the direction they're going in. I believe that's an error.

When I deposit money in the bank, that's just a type of loan. To the bank, rather than from the bank.

I'm pretty sure millions of people believe in and spread your meme about creating money, so feel free to explain why the majority is right.
Could be a lot of reasons:

* There it's a strong "vendor lock" in DAWs (Studios don't like to invest in re-training their audio engineers)

* Lack of a strong initial sponsor that creates momentum.

* Codecs with patents that can be scary

* I don't want to imagine what a mess should be with the QA of the VTS plugins out there or things like ASIO drivers for interfaces.

Blender is a rare case: Exists in part thanks to a lot of studios taking the risk of using it, therefore a few professionals want to use it, which made more studios want to use it too and sponsor it, which attracted more users, creating momentum, then a positive feedback loop.

In any case, right now I'm happy with Reaper. It's cheap, reliable and easy to use. For people hardcore into the free software movement, are usually fine with audacity (at least the forks without spyware). I bet all that make the incentive to make a new FOSS DAW reduce even more.
If enjoying cute cats is wrong, then I don’t wanna be right.

The rule change has already gone into effect - before this year, regulations from the International Society for Stem Cell Research required that embryos be destroyed at 14 days from conception. Now, there is no hard limit (although research on embryos past 14 days are still subject to institutional review).
You can use a tool like `pip-compile`[1] to freeze a requirements-style input down to precise version numbers, but I'm not sure if you can tell it to select only the "minimum viable" version for each dependency. It might be easier to assume (perhaps incorrectly) that all dependencies are semver, freeze them, and then re-write them down to their minimal versions and re-install.

If that's your criterion for what constitutes a regulated market, then there can be no such thing as a regulated market, because you can always sell elsewhere.

And defining a concept in a way that means it can't exist makes no sense, so that criterion can't reasonably define this concept. (Was that a reductio ad absurdum?)
This metric isn't meant for a bot, it's meant for people to use common sense on.

Lived in Tel-Aviv most of my adult life. Anyone who lived there long enough would tell you it was a matter of time until it "wins" this title.

I love this! And have been doing something like this for years.

The zero-effort part is key in my IME: if it's not zero effort, it won't stick. And if it doesn't stick, you won't reap the nonlinear long term benefits. There's the obvious benefit of magically reaching into the past and remembering things. But the hidden power that surprised me was the day-to-day experience of clearing cognitive clutter by typing things out in a place that I trust won't get lost.

Shameless plug: two years ago I hacked together a little node script to give my pile of markdown files a more friendly UI than grep: it would pass them through pandoc and massage the DOM and slap a a bit of JS on it. I've been using it everyday since and it's become my favorite productivity hack. I'm currently in the process of rewriting that ole hack in Go to make it more stable and easy to distribute (and to learn Go!): https://github.com/amirkdv/codex
The Taiwan analogy is pretty flawed here.

> Israel is like the Taiwan of the Middle East, meaning it's a useful partner to us in terms of maintaining a separation between the West and some perceived enemy (Muslims in this case, the Chinese in the case of Taiwan).

Is 'separation' a euphemism for 'preventing invasion'? Because threat of that is #1 thing keeping cross-strait relations tense. Mainland China could easily offer Taiwan a better deal than they get by being closely aligned with the US. Their reluctance to do so keeps US influence in the region, and after a while one can't help if it's deliberate.

Also Israel gets a much better deal than Taiwan. The US gives military aid to Israel, where as Taiwan has to petition the US government - their only significant supplier - for the right to even buy weapons. Better hardware too, despite Israels poor track record in passing US military tech to China.
Rumble is going public soon via a SPAC[1]. They have 30 million active users, up from 1 million a year ago. 50% of the voting public who voted for Trump is a pretty good demographic for starting a big new Internet company. It's as if Microsoft in the 90s said they wouldn't sell software to Republicans or something and everyone had to switch to Apple. I think it's unprecedented in the history of American business that a company would alienate such a large demographic purposefully.

The discussion of innate vs learned talent is a distraction. When new students arrive in a teacher's classroom on the first day of classes the teacher must accept each student at face value. It doesn't matter how they reached their present level of math ability. It only matters where their new teacher takes them from that point on. Leaving the advanced students to fend for themselves is a dereliction of their duties as an educator.

I have direct experience with this problem. I was labeled as a gifted student in elementary school but offered no opportunity to take enriched or accelerated classes. Out of boredom I quit trying and my grades collapsed. I dropped out of high school at age 16. Now I am an undergraduate student in mathematics, age 37, trying to put the pieces of my life back together. I have been forced to make friends with classmates half my age. All but 2 of my friends from elementary school have moved on.

Not a lot of easy surface details, but it seems like the language is pidgin Spanish adapted to whistling phonemes. There are a few videos where you can hear examples words like "Mexico" and so on.

A little experimentation and I found I can whistle quite a few English words, so it's probably a matter of acclimation to vocabulary limits and practice among enough individuals that things become standardized. Using things unique to whistling could augment vocabulary or add nuance, but I don't see any reason straight US English (or other languages) couldn't be used.

I could be way off base, but this is a pretty cool language format.

IMHO, even if the rules do change someday, it's not likely Amazon would return the money: it's an administrative burden going over old records of Sellers that might not even be alive anymore, and which boss which like to make his department look worse in the financial reports just to refund some Seller which must have forgot about their money?

It's much more likely Amazon will return the money if the ban is undone, after all, undoing it is basically admitting wrongdoing. However they haven't done it so far; Perhaps they feel they were right to ban you?

Well, it's easy for me to suggest action when I won't have to do the work. It's your money after all. I hope whatever you choose will work for you.

That and more importantly that you unconsciously aware that it's saved somewhere that you can recall / review later. So your brain doesn't store the information to long term storage.

In terms of computing, it was only stored on ram, and not going to hdd / ssd, and later will be flushed to be replaced with other info.

Which is not a bad thing if that information isn't crucial for long term.
I liked this bit.

> Known for always being quite fit, the Norwegian GM admitted this was a tiring affair: "Sure, but I think that's the way it is. As I said, it shouldn't be easy in a world championship match. You have to try for every chance no matter how small it is. Part of it was by design at some point that I thought I should make the game as long as possible so that we would both be as tired as possible when the critical moment came. That turned out to be a good strategy."

Turned the game into a sport. Which ended up paying off better than the counter-strategy of playing quick moves to apply extra time pressure. From the description it seemed like it could easily have gone either way, so clearly a win and yet by very narrow margins where replaying, if possible to go back in time, would likely yield different results.
Ah, excellent. Windows has Dependency Walker, which was always useful for tracking down weird DLL errors - glad to see something like this for Linux too.
Hum, I don't know, this is what their FAQ says:

> Does the draft Mathematics Framework eliminate middle school mathematics acceleration programs?
No. The draft Mathematics Framework does not eliminate middle school mathematics acceleration programs (including programs that offer Integrated Math 1 or Algebra 1 courses to grade eight students). The draft Mathematics Framework emphasizes the importance of following the sequenced progression of topics laid out in the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) and considers the latest research on the impact of skipping grades or undermining the sequences progression. Additionally, the CA CCSSM are significantly more rigorous than those from previous grade eight content standards. They address the foundations of algebra and geometry by including content that was previously part of the Algebra I course, including but not limited to a more in-depth study of linear relationships and equations, a more formal treatment of functions, and the exploration of irrational numbers.
> to be honest it was an awful experience.

I had bad experiences with both Amplify and Figma. Figma banned my account because they didn't like the email domain. I sent all the info they asked for to reinstate it and they stopped replying without unbanning the account. I definitely wouldn't base the core of a project on either service.

Anti-semetic remarks are never acceptable, we have come so far and progressed so much as a society, we are simple better than this. These types of attacks need to be censored and posters of such, banned. This is a place for everyone of every race and creed to get along, regardless of your feelings about a certain group, who may have some advantages in some fields, many different groups also have advantages in other fields as well, and they are not so often targeted. In the end, its all talk any way - and I mean it, nothing will happen because its all talk, years and years of talk. Some might posit we are a few generations too late to end this. The lack of tolerance is too much.

This comports with my general understanding of the matter. By total coincidence, I just wrote a newsletter on this topic (like, minutes ago), and it includes a description of triangular fraud, which is particularly relevant for e.g. sales of desirable, fungible, high-ticket electronics via online platforms from accounts which don't have a long history of being electronics retailers.

Correct that was the whole point of my post. Regulations need to be constantly rethought. The positions of "regulation good" or "regulation bad" are just too simple to be practical.
>just because people commonly call similar plastic bricks "lego" doesn't mean that they'll get away with it if they open a store to sell those bricks.

But the 'store' isn't like your offbrand Google is it? It's actually probably closer to LMGTFY. They sell Legos and other blocks... and when you buy the other blocks they aren't actually called Legos.

Surely videos/memes show up in Google/Youtube's quarterly reports.

30 years ago people valued watching "Gone with the Wind" at $10 and today at $0.05. To serve that, the distributor did a proportional amount of work 30 years ago and today (because it's easier to distribute today). Separately, it would take some effort to produce something equally engaging today with so many entertainment options to choose from.

I watch a lot of of diy/how-to videos and the dislike count is really key for knowing if the video is worth watching or a waste of time. I don’t want to sit through a 10 minute video where the person rambles for 9 minutes and then doesn’t answer any questions. Obviously for very popular videos, it’s not super meaningful, because the popularity of the video is already indicating the quality to some extent. But for more niche videos, it’s super useful to see that one video has 10 likes and 50 dislikes. Then I can move on.

In NYC, according NYC's mayor deBlasio and his racist former-DOE Chancellor, Asians are "white-adjacent" and are often bundled along with "rich white" when it's convenient for them to ignore Asians. Asians make up about 20% of NYC's public school, but they are the poorest ethnic group in NYC.

..I understand this desire to not have a boss, but I think running a business might not provide the "no boss!" situation that's desired.

I've heard it said that when you're employed by a company you have (usually) one boss, but when you have your own business, you have many bosses (demanding customers who threaten to leave and not pay if you don't do things the way/speed they want them... sounds similar to a boss).

Perhaps part of the solution is getting staff to be more confidently able to say "No", or at least have a conversation/disagreement around a given issue.

Not everyone wants to start a business or be a contractor.

I have talked to multiple customer support agents who have told me that I will get the money; or that they want to help me get it, but they have to forward it to X team and that team has to forward it to Y team and then nothing just ever gets done because somewhere down the line a team stops following through or whatever.

They don't feel any way about it. They are simply indifferent. It's a deal so insignificant to them that they don't even notice it even though it's been the #1 or #2 (next to my job) the center of attention for me over the last year.

To retain knowledge and my considerations for my future self and teammembers I create a document before each major task and update it during the task. The headings are: Goal (why are we doing this), Crux (what is the most important consideration, what will make the biggest difference), Current situation (where are we now), Steps (what needs to be done or what is done to reach the goal. The steps can contain specific details on how to get the step done) and Learnings (what did we learn, what are key insights). The files are named YYYY MM DD Taskname. Looking at the directory gives a sense of history. It’s a delight to find a document like this when doing the same task a year later. It also helps to delegate tasks to other teammembers.
