Maybe I'm wrong and if this helps people thats great, but this seems like its making a system out of something that doesn't need to be a system.

When I take notes, I'll write something out, then if I think of something that expands upon it, or a potential problem, I'll draw an arrow to the next line (or if the page is becoming full, to somewhere else) and write my new thing there. Sometimes it'll work like a strange Q&A where I write something, ask a question about it, answer it, and so on, with lines displaying the flow, but not always. All that sounds somewhat similar to these "Flow Notes", though a lot less organised.

The important thing is that I never decided to do this. I just did. And sometimes I don't and I just write normally, or sometimes a combination of the two. I can't say how much it helps me to reread my notes, I moreso take notes to think things through or get them out of my head than to keep a constant memory of them. But it works for me.

Is level 1 out of 6 the best you can do? If so, then that's lame.

Respond to the central point that GP made, otherwise you might as well not bother participating on HN.
Governments are notoriously bad at investments. Rich people will not keep money frozen in offshore accounts forever, to be eaten by inflation. They will invest at some point, and when they do it's going to be much more efficient than whatever the government can do. All the former communist states had the government make all the decisions where the money is invested, and they fell further and further behind in economy. They even had long term plans - 5 years, much better in theory than the quarter to quarter sprints that modern companies have, and it still didn't help.

You could say that once in offshore accounts, money will maybe be invested in other countries rather than domestically. That might be true, but that is a different problem (globalism) rather than trickle down.

There is a picture of Elon Musk on the article. Do you really think a government would have ever been able to create Tesla?
Yes you absolutely do earn returns on money that isn’t doing anything. If I buy a share of Apple and the share price goes up, I’ve just made a return on money that isn’t doing anything. The money I spent on that share didn’t enable any real economic activity other that me buying that share. My money didn’t go to Apple to enable them to grow their business. It went to some other investor who is primarily engaged in the same activity as me - investing.
It seems like this could be tested on a macro level by correlating obesity and days of sunshine?
>Offshore.

First, what tiny fraction of US money goes offshore versus for US investment? Ridiculously tiny. The total value of US investments dwarfs any offshore boogeyman.

And, offshore isn't a dead end. It invests where it's worthwhile, which, again, is incredibly US based - look at our bond rates and market caps.

>that investing is good

What allows new companies, large and small, to form and employ? What allows small companies to make payroll during slow seasons? What allows people to get college loans, mortgages to help build wealth, people to get loans for things that allow them to create and plan? What allows farmers to farm all year and only sell in a small window?

Oh yeah, investment.
What problems did you even run into that would cause you to lose a whole weekend? If we’re dealing with anecdata, I never had an experience that bad even when having to use bumblebee/primusrun/etc on a laptop; my last desktop Linux install was with an RTX 2060 and it was pretty much painless using X.

Also, it’s not defaulting to installing the driver anyways - as described in the article and its sources, what Fedora is actually planning to do is to change GDM’s udev rules to select the Wayland session by default if the proprietary drivers are running.

Its such a crime - of war and all else, its like a blindspot of imagination. That a man would do such a thing - to what is essentially family, as tactics.. the horror..
I find myself wondering if "Amazon's Choice" really implies an independent or impartial source. When I'm seeing it, I know it's coming from Amazon and they would like to sell me a thing. They're certainly not pretending it's the choice of anyone other than them, the company that wants to sell me things at a profit.
I don't see how "Amazon's Choice" labels would run afoul of that.

According to Amazon, "Amazon's Choice highlights highly rated, well-priced products available to ship immediately".

I don't see anything that implies that this is coming from an independent or impartial source. It's right in the name itself that it is coming from Amazon.
Most, if not all of the rich entrepreneurs come from wealthy families. If you start rich it is so much easier to spend time on founding companies.
That's because the proponents don't say the quiet part out loud.
Well Rust is always about dozens of teams, myriad committees, sub-committees , groups, sub groups, work groups, governance boards, foundations and so on. Although I don’t know they have such huge budget to run fortune 500 or government style bureaucracy. Or is that same people appear at ten different places.
I don't disagree that a CEO is doing very hard labor. As mentioned, I don't have a fundamental problem with CEOs being paid for the labor, even being paid very large amounts. I do think that there exist overpaid CEOs, in large part because it is very difficult to evaluate a CEO, but that isn't the root of inequality.

The problem is the income generated by their wealth, not the income generated by their labor.
Are the workers slaves? Are they forced to work for the offering company, or do they choose to do so?
There's a lot that's not going right for Europe, but it's interesting to see that two things in the US have really stunted the middle class: student loans and monetization of real estate as a store of wealth. Essentially the financialization of everything is making people poorer.
So, if we all close our eyes, the problem goes away.
You’d definitely expect Northern states like Massachusetts to have high obesity, with Southern states like Alabama to have low obesity.
Actually, the opposite. The result of this, besides damaged reputations and hundreds of person-hours of time wasted, was more access controls and more reviews/oversight, which slowed things down and generally made things far less "fun" than the original joke could offset.

It is sad that actions like this don't even surprise people anymore. Perhaps this is one of those Twitter actions that falls under the umbrella of "improving community discussions" instead of the first amendment.
I am not American, but I assume you are.

Your taxes are tremendously progressive. In most other developed countries they're much less progressive.

Your tax and transfer system when combined is much kinder to the poor / harsher on the rich than basically any comparable country.

That is a very simplistic view of a large, rapidly evolving asset class. Your “few marginal use cases” will grow into the most important use cases of the entire economy — and no, we don’t yet know exactly what those are. Surely you understand how compounding growth works, right?
I think the wealth increase is more easily explained by rebuilding everything we just finished blowing up, exploiting all the technological gains we made while getting better at blowing things up and using the disruption/reset as a means to achieve greater local economic maximums (e.g. historical rent seekers kicked out and things are free to become more efficient and mutually beneficial in the time it takes new ones to establish).
My lighting automation uses Insteon currently. My primary req is that they are smart and connected without needing a central controller o a connection to the internet. My switches all understand lighting scenes and can manage those in a P2P manner, without a central controller. The central controller is primarily used when I want to add actual automations vs. scenes. Even the central controller aspect works 100% disconnected from the internet though. I can easily layer on top any automations I like. For instance, I have my exterior lights driven my the angle of the sun. Then, on top of that I can add internet based triggers for automation as needed. This is where I add in voice assistant triggering of automation and scenes.

Edit:
Just to add, very simple binary automations are even possible without a central controller. Like, I have Insteon motion sensors that trigger a lighting scene when they detect motion. These are super simplistic though.
Best Buy has been nice lately. I pretty much only buy well reviewed (by a third party, like Wirecutter) and known items unless it’s a random thing I don’t care about or something very commodity, like a network cable. Ive also been trying to spread my $ around to other stores, like Target, etc. Amazon still wins because it’s so easy some of the time though.
And then right below the ad results, there's thousands of Chinese knockoffs.

I've started to just browse big box retailers now. They at least have a merchandising team dedicated to sourcing quality products.
It's an unconfirmed rumor.

Also I'd be skeptical to some extend on this. Maybe back in time when a chip fail ratio was lower was a case. But now, there is a quite measurable amount of chips not passing requirements for a high tier cards, but can be used in the lower models (with limited amount of cores etc or worse thermal efficiency).
> Money isn’t supposed to sit in a bank feeling “safe;” it’s supposed to be running around, acting young and risky, learning new things and creating new opportunities.

Money is supposed to go into Capex and Opex - those are proof that people are producing things. When money is put into a bank, or stock, or a Blockchain, the company who put it there is not doing anything useful with it. Sure, it's possible that someone lending, or selling shares, or selling crypto, is going to do something with that money, but those are already second-order effects. And of course, the ones on the other side of the transaction may well be putting it back again into banking, stocks, or crypto speculation - money spinning endlessly around, going nowhere.
As a commenter above noted, this work is about generality, being able to play every game, and not being the best at every game.
Author here :-) You access the exact same APIs with all 4 languages. In Python and Lua there are a few differences in how you should call an object method or how you can safely access user input properties (they are detailed in the Python and Lua tabs of the documentation). In JavaScript the API is 100% used the same way.
Now I wonder how this (or the Windows version, to be more precise) would interact with eSheep...
It can work that way if:

1. there's enough market competition. monopoly power and rent seeking is low.

2. the stimulus is slowly introduced to give time for the market to react.

3. the mostly state regulations but also federal regulations are small enough to all new business to form. and those small businesses have access to capital.

4. all of the above are reasoned and tweaked by rational adults with a background in statistics, science and engineering instead of idiots with slogans.

Obviously that's a fantasy land. so here we are.

Trickle-down is literal. The wealth trickles down, just like it says. The common conception is the definition of "trickle-down" is "flow down" like the wealth flows in a cycle like the rain into the snow, the snowmelt in the river, and the river into the ocean. That's flow. But we are talking about "trickle", like a faucet trickling, meaning it can be shut off easily, or you need a fixer to fix it, or it merely causes a bit of mold and warps the parquet. Trickle.
I loved Hamachi!

What do you suggest as a learning resource for things like this? The STUN RFC's? The Stevens' networking book?
Is "First Shot" "Second Shot" and "Booster" the same as 3 "doses"?
>I don't know what the original "trickle down" theory is but if it is all about money, then both the theory and its rebuttal are just circular reasoning.

It's more about giving preferential treatment, power, or advantage to the wealthy because they are considered the value creators and by giving them bigger breaks, advantages, or ability to make guidance decisions, they will move things in directions that benefit everyone.

>How do you know anything is objectively real and not a product of some brain process?

If that's true, then I know that brain processes are real.
Unless you have a birds’-eye view of the entire global economy and all uses of crypto in the market right now, there is no way you can make such a blanket statement with such certainty.
My problem with your “experiment” is that you only validated your own biases — you didn’t reject the alternative explanation.

> Anyway, I came away from those experiments even more of a materialist than I was before. If a hundred micrograms or a few milligrams of small molecule can so disrupt one's mind, if it can profoundly change your perceptions, if it can induce a feeling of being in a divine presence, it confirmed to me that the brain is all just chemistry.

Do you also believe radios are a local phenomenon because when I twist the knob, the music changes?

That’s your entire argument.
Even you have mentioned that "optical effect" is important.

Which is exactly the point. Retaining walls are built for optical effects and looks rather than for being tough.

A tough retaining wall would be a slope. Ever seen an old church arch support structure? They are not standing vertically, they are sloped.

Sloped retaining walls would not be very nice to look at (they kinda look medieval) but would be much more resistant to lateral forces.
We have to thank socialism and communism for reducing wealth i equality in western Europe and in the US. But no, make no mistake, NOT because they are good, but because they're so disastrously bad, as was demonstrated by the USSR, that western elites did a lot to improve the working conditions of their workers, so they would put aside the comminust manifesto and would start caring about their nice car and a cosy house.

According to the CVS person who did my booster, the booster for Pfizer is a full dose while the Moderna booster is a half dose (relative to each manufacturer's original first and second shot doses).
What is the point of trying to prove trickle down is a myth? There is nothing to gain, except some cheap political points against dead politicians from decades ago. Are people that pressed?

This article is hot garbage anyway. These days people can afford far more things and of better quality that were once considered luxuries decades ago, and people with actual useful skills are earning more than past generations.

Maybe trickle down is a myth? I don’t know, but whatever we’re doing now, let’s keep doing it, because it is working.

And, JFYI, it dates quite back in time:

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nomen_est_omen

The en.wikipedia "nomen est omen" redirects to the "nominative determinism" page which doesn't highlight enough the origin.
Because people have children who benefit from their resources without having done anything to earn it, because those in power (having wealth of one kind or another) can leverage that power to suppress the ability of others to attain it, because no one is free of biases, etc.

Honestly if you can't see how the ideal of a meritocracy is impossible you're just not trying. Surely, some elements of meritocratic ideas are useful, but it is folly to believe that people with wealth have 'earned' it purely on merit.
Quite the opposite. Check the moves on the exchanges, and you’ll see that the velocity of capital is truly unmatched. This is exactly why lots of very serious asset managers and quant shops have jumped in — crypto is becoming the major leagues, and making TradFi look like a minor league game, scary-fast.
I feel like this is an argument willfully ignoring many, many other factors than direct giving. Such as an actual global pandemic.

I cannot believe that the stimulus money given to the US public has had the supply effects spanning the globe that are also partially responsible for inflation. I firmly believe doing so is a) shortsighted, b) unbelievably arrogant, and c) just plain ignorant of how the world has changed in the last 18 months.

In other words, I do not believe this is as strong of an argument as you think it is. Supply chain, labor shortage, a bounce-back effect in various spending categories after a low year in 2020. All of these things absolutely must play a factor in that.

Not just handing out money to people.
> the wealthy can only consume so much

That is exactly the point. The wealthy cannot consume too much, so they will invest the rest. Investment means factories and jobs for the poor. The government could take the money and do the investments themselves, but that never really works well. With so many inefficiencies, the governments would slow down the economic development significantly. Communist countries had 5 year plans setup by the government and they fell further and further behind in the market. All the money was distributed by the government, based on studies and decisions made mostly by engineers and politicians (e.g. if a dam was deemed profitable it was built no matter what. If nuclear is better it was getting built, and get public support afterwards etc.), and still they fell behind.
Ancient greek's could surely measure some things, how else did they build those buildings?

You've declared we can measure everything important so reality is objective, but quantum physics suggests the things we can't measure may be astronomically large. The physicists who subscribe to the many world's theory believe there's a near infinite assortment of humans we cannot percieve or effectively measure, for example, and our own experience of self is inaccurate as we don't percieve ourselves to be branching in time.

I don't think measurements solve the problem of the uncertainty of reality.
And it impoverishes those who you took those 20M$.

You can’t assess real impact without taking that into account.
That's not how it works. Amazing how you can be so confident while being so wrong.
It seems plausible given stuff like this:

"A developer driver inadvertently included code used for internal development which removes the hash rate limiter on RTX 3060 in some configurations," the company said in a statement. "The driver has been removed."[1]

So it's hard to tell when it's binning, and when it's hobbling.

IIRC Biontech distributes directly in some part of Europe that includes Turkey but I wouldn't bet on Kazakhstan and its neighbours. (Also, Pfizer does more than distribute, it also produces the stuff somewhere in the US, and contract manufacturers including Rentschler Biopharma produce for both of them.)
And yet most swedes have almost no fat on them.
I'm not saying the nation of China or even the CCP is inherently evil, I'm just referencing this extreme viewpoint for the sake of making an argument.

Thanks for your comment. I believe WebGPU does not (yet) support accessing the ray tracing acceleration hardware. Or does it? If yes, this would be great news to me!
Mangosteens are actually easily transported and I've purchased them in a number of Asian markets in the US and London, though quality may deteriorate. There are many other fruit, however, which spoil after a day or so, despite refrigeration:
Pawpaw (Asiminia Triloba)
Jamaican Strawberry (Muntingia Calibura)
Miracle Fruit (Synsepalum dulcificum)

Additionally, there are fruit that aren't suitable for commercial sale due to tenderness:
Peanut Butter Fruit (Bunchosia grandulifera)
Gummy Worm Fruit (Cercropia)

Many fruit that are properly ripened won't ship well, which is why starfruit from the store never taste good. Weird Fruit Explorer and Earth Titan have tons of info on fruit if you'd like to learn more about what is growing around the world.
> Where do you think that money goes?

Offshores, real estate, stocks, cryptocurrencies and other speculative bubbles. Probably on slaves, in a couple of decades.

Run the numbers, the billionaires don't actually have that much money compared to the hordes of doctors, lawyers and managers. If you want to cut the masses a meaningful sized check (lump sum or over time really makes no difference) you're going to need to take it from more than just the very top. Look at how Europe pays for its social safety nets. That's on the order what the tax burden would look like. You can't just snap your fingers and make that happen. Well you can, but that's a great way to get you and your like minded buddies shot in the hole you just dug. That frog needs to be boiled slowly and doing it that way isn't a sure thing. Basically you have to convince enough of the middle class that something that is very much not worth their while is the right thing to do.

Granted, VR may not be a good input method for bursts of high-speed, high-dexterity input (so, coding), but I can see its advantages in Ops contexts and for read-only navigation.

Imagine a build pipeline represented as a 3D chain of shapes (one shape per pipeline run). Drag the latest shape in the chain forward, then release it - when it snaps back, you've initiated a new build, with a "ghost" shape left it place to represent that a run is in progress (it will become solid when the run finishes). Pick it up and throw it in the trash to delete a faulty build. Pick it up and place it on a pedestal labelled "release" to deploy it to production.

VR will finally leverage Object Oriented Programming in the way it should have been used all along - spatial manipulation of digital objects that use pretty good physical metaphors for what they are.
