It won't halve the value of the dollars that are stored, because they are not being spent.

Only spent dollars cause price changes, and then only if the capacity to expand is exhausted.

If I have a billion dollars in a cupboard prices won't change at all. More importantly if I have a billion dollars in a bank account prices won't change at all, because money in a bank account isn't available for anybody else to use.

Economists struggle with the difference between a stock and a flow, which is why their accounting is terrible. Particularly their bank accounting.

No I mean it in the sense of using ray tracing for the full Global Illumination of a full game scene. Obvs there are lots of titles some a few years old where RTX is used for specific effects like specular reflection or ambient occlusion but where the lighting is still traditional.

Ray marching a SDF based scene is also pretty easy but that’s more like a world inside a shader than anything resembling a full game scene.
Same here, though I'm more keen on finding free items on the curb and/or posted on FBMP and CL. I also buy a fair amount from those places as well. We sold a Jeep Wrangler interior carpet set for $175 + shipping that we picked up for free from FBMP.

Right now making about $500/month with $150 going to a 10x10 climate controlled storage unit. At the door going into our unit is a dumpster and we found about 5 huge bags of toys that my wife is going through and listing. We've sold about $30 worth of free stuff from that single dumpster.

In July 2021 I did really well but was going balls to the wall with it and probably made close to $1000 that month. But I got burnt out quick and slowly started getting back into it. My wife has pretty much taken over it as her part- to full-time job (once she gets started on something she can't stop). She has successfully listed about 5 items a day for the past month.

Absolutely correct about the thermal label printer. Bought a brand new one for a fraction of the cost off of FBMP ;-)

I bought a tape gun and wasted more tape than what actually got on the box so ditched that.

I'd guess the Utah teapot, it's been around since 1975. Cornell box is from 1984, and test scenes for materials are in some way a pretty recent thing, at least how they are used now; to me the modern versions started with Maxwell Render.
Your question intrigued me so much that i searched for books on Amazon dealing with "Headache" and to my surprise, there is a whole lot. You might want to try a couple; the book Splitting: The inside story on Headaches by Amanda Ellison (https://www.durham.ac.uk/staff/amanda-ellison/) seems promising.
The author conveniently leaves out the implementation of the actual method calls themselves, which is frankly the important part.

interface Query {

Now admittedly, the implementation is probably cleaner with "generics", but you can generically approach the problem with interfaces.
As you have pointed out, but formulated more explicitly: client-side rendering should deal only with HTML/CSS because that's what the browser is built and optimized for. Every line of script changing the DOM (html structure) may trigger a redraw of the page, which means wasting considerable amount of resources! But even if your script outputs HTML only once, you still have O(n) HTML templating instead of O(1) for n clients. Such a waste!

Yeah if you give a button to an employee and tell them “you won’t ever be yelled at for pushing the button, but if you fail to push the button and something happens you will be yelled at” - that button is going to get pushed. A lot.
This could get somebody hurt.
Man, I've been bit a few times with this. I'll read code and think, "Why the hell did they do that?" Later, when I'm almost done re-writing it, I see the edge case they were working around.

At the very least, comment these situations.
Google services are crap, what a surprise.
Building a website in raw HTML/CSS is much easier than the equivalent in javascript-framework-du-jour. It's also much lighter on resources both on server and client. It's a win-win situation for everyone, especially for clients with less powerful computers.
I tried this path, but I find myself disillusioned. So far I don't have a cause I could spend all of my time advancing.
I don't have the burning motivation to do everything to found a thriving startup doing some random thing. It is really hard.

Maybe I could eventually find one but the odds don't seem great. Ideally I might work for something like Neuralink but I don't think I can get there. The chasm to making that a reality seems too deep. Though this may be a self-fulfilling prophecy in a way.

As for other startups, I don't think e.g. any of the local ones pay well and, like many would say, I value equity options at zero until they're liquid.
I just feel like I've been burned too many times to grasp for more lottery tickets.
You're spot on. LIDAR sounds interesting but I don't know of any off the shelf solutions.

I'm leaning towards using motion sensors like gates. Instead of pointing them out into the room you mount them looking across thresholds like door frames. If you have enough sensors you can get a sense of direction and keep track of where people are. It is a bit fragile though. For example if two people enter a space within seconds of each other this might not be recognised effectively. It depends how quickly your motion sensors reset.

I tried to use Bluetooth presence detection but it seems my smart watch doesn't broadcast its identity once it is paired with a device. I could leave it unpaired but then I lose syncing and notifications.

I have seen some folks on YouTube place cameras in each room and they stream the video locally and perform face detection with it. I haven't felt comfortable enough to put cameras in every room yet, but I may bite the bullet at some point.
A part of my job is to review CVs and select candidates to interview for my team. The first thing I do is check to see if they have a github account, and if they do I check their projects. Anything that looks relevant gets a quick inspection. It makes difference to whether they get an interview, and it makes for some topics of discussion during the interview. It confirms for me that the candidate is in fact actually interested in the field, and shows be the porential quality of their work.

If you think nobody ever looks at your public code, you're wrong. It's just like wearing a bathing suit at the beach or pool: people look.

This should not then be measured by health outcomes, but economic!

It's quite plausible that health outcomes would be similar in aggregate. If you need urgent expensive surgery that takes your home deposit, you'll still pay it and live if you have no other option.
I saw part of that video the other day and what you and the guy in the video are saying is absurd. This guy is all butthurt that Roblox can't monitor and ban people for what goes on in Discord chats.

But the GP wrote: “For many, such a license should be required for use in any org which is over X employees” emphasis mine.

Not at all; value comes from marginal utility! The action of labour creates value, but it can just as easily destroy it. If a factory produces goods at a loss, is the value of its workers labor negative? Clearly not, but that is what labor theory of value would imply. Then, stylistically, capital goods are funded out of shareholder capital, which is risk-bearing, so demands a return above depreciation; this is accounted as profit but companies still need to promise dividends to be able to fund capital improvements. And enterprise value - which lies in a firm's relationships with its workforce, its suppliers and customers - is created by entrepreneurial labour with the promise of eventual profit.

Yes, of course in the course of competition, in mature industries profit will reduce to the cost of capital; although automation (as a productivity improvement) will delay this process, not accelerate it. But as industries mature, others arise through innovation.

Simply drawing a trend line on a graph (and it's not clear what the graph is displaying) and exclaiming that it fits theory is nowhere near enough to evidence a hypothesis, especially when the counter-trends are contrary to theory. What destruction of capital occurred in the early '80s?
The new film does live up to the book, in my experience and after re-watching the original Lynch film, it wasn't even as bad as I remember. The new film fits the atmosphere perfectly, hoping the sequel doesn't end up like the matrix sequels (although I'll probably watch matrix 4 too!)

The only way you can not be judgmental is by being dead or unconscious. Living is about making judgments about everything, all the time (and most of them become habits at some point).
Could've said this in 2007.

The wild west days of email, with bang paths and "store and pray" delivery systems, those were fun. By the time `sendmail.cf` hacking was no longer a necessary skill, email had become industrialized. Today, why would you even want to try routing internet email through an RBBS net to WWIV net to some hackers custom Amiga board?

SMTP was the Ford Model T of electronic messaging. It slaughtered the previous visions of what the field needed to be. We can look back fondly at the older ideas and even re-implement their insights now, but the lessons of the market are written in big bold letters now.
This heavily reminds me of Nuitka, a similar project for Python.
It is true that those are all inter-related.

The premise of his video is that the energy goes across to the bulb at the speed of light without using the circuit.

The real answer is there is a very small response at the speed of light because the moment the battery is connected there is effectively an antenna or capacitor set up between the two wires.

The light will turn on after the time it takes the energy to pass around the entirety of the circuit.

As for the Poynting vector 'demonstrating' that the energy goes straight across rather than being confined to the wires, there is a tiny bit of truth in that, but he fails to say (or to understand) that in reality the field lines running from battery to bulb would be SO ABSOLUTELY MINUTE compared to the very strong field lines confined to the circuit path.

So in short, there is a TINY amount of current flow at the speed of light because there is an antenna set up between the wires. It doesn't even matter if the wires are connected at their ends or not - you've built an antenna.

But this will NOT turn the light on because the energy received will be extremely small.

The light turns on after the energy has travelled the entire length of the circuit, and not before.

I've been in more product meetings that have uttered a phrase like "we will work out what to do with all these users later" than I care to count. It really is a startup goal to sign-up as many users as possible. In most cases it is literally a metric for the next funding round ("Last quarter we had 100k signups!" Is a very attractive soundbite at the round table)
Those are not problems with FOSS as such - they are problems with the current economic system allowing companies like Google or Facebook to parasitize on society, including FOSS.
The alleged “War on Christmas” (and the idea associated idea that it is somehow no longer possible to say “merry Christmas”) are by no means a new phenomenon. They have long been favorite talking points of Ron Paul and the AFA, for example.

https://www.lewrockwell.com/2003/12/ron-paul/the-war-on-reli...

If the President of the USA can say “merry Christmas” without anyone complaining, then I’d have to say that the scale of the issue is (and always has been) enormously exaggerated in the rough and tumble of American culture wars.

According to what I learned in physics, magnetism is, quite literally, just electricity plus relativistic effects - that is pretty cool. Less cool is the idea that electromagnetism and weak nuclear force are "really the same, kind of, at very high energies". It must be known because it's true, but it doesn't make them "the same force" as some say.
I get a couple of these and the logos involved in most of the others are familiar but I can't remember enough to figure them out.

Yeah, java can change the variance model used by generics, but my point is that it is a language-level feature, not something fundamental at a JVM level, which is imo the correct decision.

Also, unfortunately arrays are covariant so Cat[] is a subclass of Animal[] (both in Java and C# actually), where your mentioned example indeed introduces a “poisoned” value, waiting for a classcastexception.
I don’t think the actual experience is sub optimal. It’s not quite there yet, but give it another 10 years and it might be.

However, from a pure engineering perspective, I think most people agree that the page weight has increased at a rate that is unjustified considering the core features and functionality have been relatively static. So why the bloat? Engineers can tell of course. The margins of acceptance have gone way up thanks to faster devices and connections, but that still doesn’t explain why they don’t seem to care to optimize anymore. In optimize, I’m talking about it from a pure engineering perspective: what is the minimum amount of data needed to do the job of displaying a list of search results? Some people have forgotten that a list and some simple formatting is all there is to it. It’s not a web app, it has minimal interactivity, and relatively basic features. The fact that it has ballooned to 500k just proves that even Google is not immune. Maybe more resistant than other giant tech companies who’s software just keeps getting larger but not immune.

Remember that code is data too. 500k isn’t a lot in today’s world but multiply that by how much traffic they receive and it is. I’m not saying Google search isn’t a well designed product that doesn’t work well, but from a pure first principles perspective it does seem quite bloated based upon what it used to be.
Being in a work environment where quite a lot of people have stickers on their laptop lids I am pretty confident you'd have to actively point at it and be like "See? That's the joke." for someone to even notice it because people just don't pay that much attention to it. It's too subtile, but I get that's the point.

multiplying the current price by the number of coins just doesn't mean anything

It is also true for any regular stock. “Market cap” is just an indicator value of a stock at a given time, not the value, and no one expects all of it to be sold at that sum, because of market dynamics. The resulting number doesn't represent anything real regardless of the asset class. The only difference between crypto and some stock market traded company shares is that the latter has usually a known non-zero value at the assets level, everything else is just a thin air of trust and expectations. You may see cryptohead-ance as crypto’s base assets.
> The solution is nothing short of punishment of these people and enforcement of the law. The problem is the bad people.

I have yet to meet a completely good or completely bad person. Most people I’ve ever met are both at different times and in different situations. Is a single mother stealing baby formula to feed her child a bad person? An addict breaking into cars to feed an addiction?

People in desperate situations do desperate things, and I think we can all agree that the legal system is applied rather unevenly to those without the resources to appear sympathetic in court (who also tend to be more desperate than the average person). We effectively criminalize being poor, so I’m not sure more criminal laws or more police will help that problem.

"Why greatness cannot be planned" by Kenneth Stanley

It's a bit depressing that academia works the way it does, but in a twisted way it gives me hope that I could make a significant contribution somewhere by just tinkering or following what feels interesting. Even if there are tens of thousands of people working in an area like AI, most of them are just making incremental improvements to what already exists, so there could be an opening for independent people to do something interesting still.
Thanks for posting it. Nice stats, it would be great to see the stats by country and developer ternure.
Very promising! I hope the human trials will be effective, we'll have to see in a few years how it all plays out.

Until then, it's great news for mice all around.
Yep, I think it's interesting to note how slow x86 was in general with refcounting even compared to the PowerPC era.

It's something that showed early on quite a lot when you compared what was considered light usage at that point in time (say open Word and a couple of Safari tabs), a G4 wasn't ridiculous in those scenarios compared to the first Core 2 machines.

While I'm sure the designers paid particular attention to those instructions, it's really x86 being a terrible instruction set than the other way around that create that particular refcounting gap I think.
I recently bought a house in Canada that's heated with all electric baseboards, I am not looking forward to my electricity bill. I'd love to partner with an experienced miner who was willing to pay for the rigs up front and do a lot of the fetch-and-carry in exchange for the waste heat. I have no doubt there are plenty of other homeowners who'd feel the same way. Waste heat's a valuable resource, at least for half the year.
> Please enable Javascript to view this site. This is a Single Page Application and it needs JS to render.

That's the entire problem with JS: i can't browse a page without a complex rendering engine (arguably full of security vulnerabilities) or even scrape it. Something like webmention/microformats (indieweb) federation becomes almost impossible with you due to your setup.

Also worth noting, rendering the Markdown on the client is super inefficient. First, because client-side JS will always be far slower than native code server-side: i first need to download the entire JS then run it in a super slow sandbox. Second, because there's economies of scale to be had: it may take a few milliseconds to build the markup, but every client has to do it. For n client, that's O(n) complexity vs O(1) for server-side rendering. So many CPU cycles wasted :)

Crucial Conversations. It was actually recommended to me in an HN thread. Literally life changing
This thread is really interesting to read because if the same thread had been made a couple of years ago, before Apple released its M1 laptops, it would have been filled with Apple fans who would be saying that the Intel MBPs were the best thing since sliced bread and that the users were doing something wrong.

I think the only time Apple fans actually accepted that an Apple product was actually bad was the trashcan Mac Pro, and that was only because they went half a decade without upgrading it and they replaced a beloved design with one that was branded as a trash can.
They shut the official forums down to not have to deal with moderation, they created the issue of third party communities
> At least three people you’re responding to here don’t see how Intel is being “woke” in any pejorative sense.

That's because they (claim to) not know what it means and are unwilling or incapable of finding out.

And your hypotheses are laughable. My hypotheses is that they are based on nothing but an infantile emotional reaction to somebody using the word woke, which is now well entrenched in common vernacular whether you like it or not.
