The company I worked at was great for 3 years. 2021 was a year where we were left - almost criminally - understaffed and the remainder employees picked up a huge amount of bits of others peoples roles. Rehiring was slow, despite available resources. WFH was cancelled at short notice. No obvious reward for carrying the compay for 6-12 months.

Employers, we'll only take so much.

I'll be gone within 6 weeks.
We've wound up with subsidies because it is what is politically feasible.

The most efficient approach would be to correctly price the negative externalities of gas on health and environment, but pragmatically politicians understand that enormous carbon taxes are a very quick way to be voted out of office. Accordingly we arrive at the solutions available: subsidies for alternatives and/or a very slow phase in of carbon taxes.

Progressive jurisdictions are straight up banning gas hookups in new developments for environmental and health reasons.
Can't you also have a situation where value is a lost and there is a net loss in wealth?

I think it's mostly about how predictable the risk is. In a casino, the odds are stated and known. In stocks, (in the US) companies are supposed to file statements with the SEC to honestly report the risks to their best extent. With crypto, no one seems to have to report any risk evaluation.

I guess the other difference is that in casinos, the bet typically goes to zero faster than with stocks and sometimes crypto, as it seems rare that those will zero out, so people may not lose 100% of a bet but sure can lose 99%.

But I agree with OP, that it mostly depends on whether someone likes it whether they see it as gambling, less so in actual definitions of what gambling is.

I always assume you don't create value at all when you are a speculative investor like buying a stock. The value creators are the company you invest in.
> Findings like this, like all societal issues from climate to pandemic, are naturally read as “What should I do?” when they should be read as “What should society incentivize?”

I could not disagree more. First, I value personal freedom, and an important part of exercising freedom responsibly is being informed. Good information helps you make a choice that wisely balances what you want with what's wise. I read things like this with the question, "What should I do about this?" hanging in my mind, because that's the relevant question: do I alter my life based on this information, and if so, how?

"Authorities creating incentives to encourage optimal behaviors" is nice talk that is either a) a euphemism for making it illegal to do as you please, or b) a euphemism for making it prohibitively expensive to do as you please. In either case, it comes down to forcing people to act against their preferences but in accordance with the will of the authorities, which I can't agree to.

That's the low end of the market basically. It's no different than picking up a cheap compact camera a few decades ago. I had one (a Kodak) and I knew absolutely nothing about photography. Point, click, bring the film roll to the store, and whatever you got back was it. Not very different from giving full control to Apple/Google over the creative outcome. And they do a decent job of course. They do some amazing things with the very limited sensors and lenses that these cameras have. But there are limits to that of course.

Pro cameras start at a few thousand dollars. Clearly not for everyone but they always were that expensive. And that's before you consider the lenses. The type of person that spends 2000 dollar on a lens that only works in very specific situations is never going to be satisfied by an iphone.

Most amateurs with ambition fall into the pro-sumer segment that yearn for more than a cheap lens + sensor in a mobile phone can give you but are not necessarily interested in spending thousands of dollars on their hobby. There are plenty of options for those people. I bought a Fuji X-T30 in 2020; a typical entry level camera for people that like to have some level of control over the whole photo taking process.

It was about the same price as an iphone and it definitely takes better photos if you know what you are doing (and probably even if you don't) because of basic physics. The lenses are bigger and better. Some of the lenses you can buy are actually way more expensive than a typical iphone. Also, the sensor is bigger. It's just more light and information being gathered before destructive post processing happens. And you have more control over the process. Not for everyone. But those people still exist.
It's a DWM port to Wayland, essentially. I assume that's why this was posted.
I used autossh many years ago. There was nothing wrong with it. But with systemd user service managers available everywhere I just put a normal ssh command into a service file with RestartAlways and activate linger for the user.

No need to install an extra package. No idea whether it is maintained or not, but I know systemd is, both upstream and in the distro.
8 years, to be exact.
Yeah, it's the same thing in Germany. The CCC and data protection agencies have raised concerns about the Luca app from day one and were never in danger of being seen as conspiracy theorists.

OP is just strawmanning.

(Moreover, the phrase "could be seen as fuel for conspiracy theorists" doesn't mean that something bad isn't happening, it's usually used as a way of saying "don't do this stupid thing because it encourages people to think we do even stupider things").
Looking at how communication broke down in the past few years on different social media websites I can firmly proclaim that most people consider a view heretical if it doesnt align perfectly with their own view.

There's a somewhat famous UK guy called Charlie Mullins who runs a plumbing Business called Pimlico Plumbers. I saw a clip the other day where he does this experiment with his own business, and the cameras film people finding out what their colleagues are earning. Some people feel quite shafted, others don't want to talk about it. In the end there's a not so satisfying solution. Or at least one that papers over the problem: they find some savings from their suppliers and give the money to the lower paid staff.

But I thought it was an interesting experiment to watch.
>You almost certainly were if

Don't you mean they almost certainly weren't? It's hard to understand the rest otherwise.

I'm a rather frequent photographer myself, but I shoot solely 35mm film and Fujifilm instant photos. There's still a thriving market for film and there are plenty of labs around to develop your films at. You can pick up various old cameras and lenses for fairly small amounts of money on eBay and similar (or you can spend a ridiculous amount, your call haha).

Film has a certain quality to it that I adore. You don't get insanely crisp images like you describe, you don't get to edit your photos, you just get what you pointed your camera at. And you get something meaningful and physical that you can pick up and hold when you're done. It's wonderful.
Carbon taxes don't apply for synthetic Methane made with atmospheric CO2.
Technically "heresy" means exactly "serious deviation from set beliefs" [1].

It's indeed interesting indeed how the meaning moved from the "dangerous mistaken beliefs held despite firm evidence" (today this could be antivaxers) to "challenging mainstream views in interesting and possibly productive ways" (a century ago that would be quantum physics).

Nope.

Lenses are designed for a specific sensor size. Phones have tiny sensors.
Another ancient but still supported protocol is the finger protocol. For the current weather on the South Pole, try this from the command line:

I was expecting to read about how to set up the infrastructure to run my own CDN infrastructure for free (hard to believe is possible, so I clicked).

Instead, it's an article about how to use Cloudflare to deliver static assets for free, on Cloudflare's free tier.

Edit: I would love to read more about how to set up a cheap self-managed CDN, perhaps using cheap VPS servers spread out in different regions.

>More than 2,000 Apple employees are now working on its VR and AR hardware as part of a unit called the Technology Development Group, or TDG. The group is run by Mike Rockwell, an ex-Dolby Laboratories Inc. executive, and Dan Riccio, Apple’s former head of hardware engineering who stepped down from that larger role in early 2021.

That's a very interesting bit of news

The most problematic gambling is where the bookie also provides credit. A guy putting $100 on a game in Vegas and losing it is nothing compared to the guy who puts $10k on a game he doesn’t have, and then is out stealing from his employer or committing insurance fraud to cover debts and vig.
Say you are buying a car at pre-tesla days. There is plenty of competition in the market and there is no clear market leader. You need to buy because you have to buy a car. The features never add much to anything and you make your decision based on recommendation and the reputation.

Now, you are making cars and you want people to buy more car. How can they do that? Upping the speed of your average consumer vehicle? Making it more mobile? Making generic upgrades in comfort features? Essentially adding units to existing features isn't a viable sales strategy. They can do nothing to have an uptick in car sales by just adding units to the features they offer.

Now you have the entire camera industry. Since the advent of decent mobile photography, you don't have to buy camera, so the manufacturer are already in a bad position. Then as far as innovation they are just adding units to existing features. More megapixels, better low light capabilities, higher FPS and that's about it. There isn't any effort or innovation in delivering something that is featurewise a new concept. There isn't anything that warrants someone to buy and carry it.
That's crazy. I would have thought they have people buying food, designing menus, cooking the food, creatives, analytics, customer service, etc. Maybe that is counted under SCM?

Edit: it looks like they DO have these types of positions, and they dominate the open roles. Software engineers is one of the smaller categories.

Thanks for the downvote, whoever.
What if this new generation is just repeating the mistakes of former generations?

They talk about decentralization which has been done so often before and only worked for niche use-cases.

What if crypto is just a big money pump and dump scheme? It‘s sold to the poor to solve their financial situation which mostly don‘t have bank accounts. But the ones loosing the most in crypto crashes is not the new-generation web3 developer earning a good income. It‘s the poor guy somewhere with a bad local currency which was now using crypto which is now not worth anything too.

—-

People are always repeating that many people didn‘t e.g. saw the need in the internet and had been totally wrong in it. But crypto isn‘t new anymore like the internet was at that time! Bitcoin is almost 13 years old and Etherum 6! The internet had already shown very good usecases after that time and crypto is still searching for it‘s _one_ use case than money speculation on a highly volatile asset which doesn‘t have any real money.

More interesting what will happen to crypto in a real world economy crash like 2008!

I think you're onto something at the end there! The commenter was almost certainly talking about subjectively "nicer" photos that have been made more interesting by the use of flawed lenses.

And this isn't an uncommon idea either. It is the idea behind lensbaby, Lomography, and the slightest resurgence of Polaroid.

There has been speculation that Tchaikovsky's death was a suicide, perhaps related to previous intimate relationships.

Exposure bias. Who are you going to see more? The thoughtful coder and innovator who spends their time working on problems, or the excited businessman telling everyone about that work? Even the more outgoing founders are overshadowed by influencer types, and that’s not surprising at all.

One dichotomy I have noticed in crypto is that non-involved “tech” people seem to understand crypto and the big picture much more slowly than economically minded people (no, not just speculators). People don’t usually understand that crypto currencies are an economic innovation using cryptographic primitives, though more recently the space has started driving cryptographic innovation as well.
Don't forget wildlife photography. I have a Canon 100-400mm lens on a DSLR and wildlife photography with it is a really rewarding hobby. Don't use it for anything else really.
just wanted to add more to the history we were constructing! Didn't mean to imply that you implied that it was trotsky's idea.
It could be the norm. It all depends on how the society is organized. If there is a system of law and a court and you prove someone stole something from you, the government will coerce that person to give you back or pay some sort of fine. For instance, even if the system says you own those bitcoins, a court can rule that you give it back to the person you hacked and also pay for the costs of the case. The same goes for smart contracts. A court may rule that the contract is invalid and require one of the parties to pay the other, regardless of the smart contract. So, that technology doesn't, in and on itself, revolutionize any of that. However, it could be made into law that a court cannot revert a smart contract or that the contents of a digital wallet belongs to whoever has it, regardless of how it was obtained.

GDPR is exactly what came to mind when I read this. I don't have a full understanding of GDPR, but I thought this is what it is supposed to guard you from.

Likewise, I haven't read the Terms of Use for installing the app. It very well might have a clause for this use case.
I think the point is more that someone who felt they needed an entry-level DSLR a few years ago can get better performance from their phone today, and doesn't need any camera.
This again? If someone and their partner have incompatible expectations or boundaries then they should break up.
... and yet that's how people do it these days. I hate that, personally.
Rather funny that if you order by salaries, the top ones are by far the sports coach. That's the peak (or close to) of human existence I guess.
While it's expected in capitalism, I find it sad that tax dollars go into those salaries (don't start the "they make more revenue than their salaries" thing. Government is not a business)
It is however a closely linked synonym.
The biggest reason why I held off on the camera was missing the fisheye lens, once that became a common feature, I was pretty much sold going with the phone over a camera.

I'd start with learning about dimensional modeling, with one of the newer Kimble data warehouse toolkit books. And also document the data flow between all of these systems to make it easier to talk through options with stakeholders.

What type of user data is it? It sounds like you have multiple "input" sources of truth, and are wanting to create a single reporting dataset that has the latest info from each?

Once you can break down the datasets into facts and dimensions, it becomes more clear which update strategies to use for each. Master data like names and email addresses usually goes into a dimension table, and transactional data like purchases, page views into a fact table.

How do you know when each record has changed in each source? Are there edge cases where changes can't be detected? How much latency is acceptable in the reporting system? 1 day? 5 minutes? Those questions are important to explore early on.

You're getting into data engineering. It's a great field to learn and the job market is hot. But if you are wanting to avoid data wrangling completely, check out kloud.io and fivetran. They do a lot of the heavy lifting. If they support most of your systems it could save you and your company a lot of time. (I'm not affiliated but know both products well from firsthand experience)
Even if India never should have been in this position, the cost of its being in this position seems manageable. By way of comparison, India spends 6-7 times as much money on its air force as on buying corona vaccines. This isn't a large budget item, not a large problem.

There were shortages, but AFAICT those weren't related either to pricing or to patents. The government ordered what it thought necessary, the manufacturer set up production to match that and delivered doses as ordered. Then more was needed and scaling up further took time.

Overall, I can't see reason to count the three problems in the headline as big problems for India.
Of course you do. I was not attacking you, but just wondering what do you consider to be a superior past time than creating art. The fact that you have to hide behind the mask of anonymity tells me everything though, so thank you.
Curious what you think about taxes on cigarettes.
You can def get induction ranges with knobs, I've been appliance shopping recently and saw plenty of them, but at the moment it may be a "luxury" feature that requires getting a model that is a few notches up from the cheapest model.

Of course it's silly that knobs would belong only to "premium" models.
My guess is that the original paper is artefactual, but there's no reason a priori that an organism couldn't take large classes of ionizing radiation and turn it directly into chemical energy, ionizing radiation, after all, effects chemical transformations.
How does something like that (at $1500) compare to the performance of e.g. a full range like https://www.geappliances.com/appliance/GE-Profile-30-Smart-S... (at twice that, but for an entire rangetop)?
That subreddit has existed for years though? Accepting your life for what it is goes back millennia in some religions, so that is not a new trend either. Greek and Roman philosophy is absolutely filled with people stating that striving for political or monetary gain is a fools' errand, so that is not something new either.

Perhaps this is merely a case of the Baader Meinhoff phenomenon and you suddenly notice it more than earlier?

That's definitely valuable context, but it kinda seems like it just shifts the criticism to German state governments. Why are they using this centralized app with privacy issues if there was a perfectly good decentralized one they could have used?
Ahh yes the “they” in crypto. The same “they” that people like you used to say would ‘turn it off whenever they wanted’ a few years ago.

> To be clear, I'm not saying that anti-Asian racism doesn't exist; obviously it does, it's just not on the level that anti-Black racism is on.

I never said that anti-Asian attitudes are "on the level" that anti-Black ones are. What I'm saying is that such things should point us towards a far more nuanced understanding of how "identity politics" might play out in the real world.
> They talk about decentralization which has been done so often before

What’s an example from earlier generations?
For sure. 2020 was a rough year for me: I had a routine appendectomy during which the surgeon accidentally punctured my intestine with a suture while closing up the laparoscopic portholes. Sent me home that way. And as you might expect, I came back with a lot of abdominal pain. They had to open up my abdomen with a big 6” vertical incision this time in order to fix and clean everything.

As for the huge incision, they just put in around 8 staples. That was it. They intentionally wanted it to allow inflammation-base fluid build-up to escape. Super gross. But, nothing gross actually happened, and it healed up in less than a week. Definitely left a bad scar though.
