On your #1, the biggest change is "private label MBS" (which did not get the GSEs' guarantee) largely vanished from the market (the high since the crisis was a twentieth of 2007's number). The supermajority of investors in pools of mortgages are buying GSE-issued securities, which are insulated from default risk, including the case where the lender seizes the collateral and can't liquidate it for the entire outstanding principal net of costs.
My best guess is that those are near very bright foreground stars, which cause artifacts in the corresponding imaging survey.

Some articles don't introduce anything really surprising, for example with a "how to create containers using syscalls directly" you expect a meat-and-potatoes kind of content.

Wow. This is amazing. I guess I have to buy LG tv's from now on.
I take issue with every sentence you wrote. "Highly educated"? I don't think so. "Some of the authors" - you mean Nietzsche, I guess. It seems likely he didn't read Nietzsche's books, but just the bits quoted in (anti-semitic) newspapers. Check out Chamberlain and Schönerer. The first thing you notice is the strong Nazi-type flavour of their thoughts. Wagner and Luther are notorious for their extreme anti-semitism. That first wiki-sentence comes to "He read the paper". My understanding is, on the street corners and cafes of Vienna in those days were a dozen different half-nutty political groups, and Hitler took a bit from every one of them. The stuff was in the air, if you stopped to breathe it in.

I do find it surprising compensation is at the top.

I've never changed jobs over money. In fact several times I've taken new jobs that pay less on the promise of it being more fun.

Which is not to say I'll work for unreasonably low pay, I talk comp ranges with recruiters first to know if it is worth continuing the discussion.

But beyond a reasonable point, more pay doesn't make any difference (well, unless it's like 20x more, but nobody is offering that). A pleasant working environment, interesting projects, ownership, sane management, being respected, work/life balance and vacations; all of these are to me a lot more important than +/- 100K of pay.

> phonemes were perceptually distinct units of sound, in the same way graphemes are visually distinct units

Yes, exactly! This is a great way to describe it. (I think I might steal it for the future, even.)

> What would the term be for units of sound which are perceptually distinct regardless of listener's perspective?

The closest is ‘phone’, as mentioned by umanwizard, but I’m not sure there is any one word for this, because the concept itself is poorly-defined, and you can make two sounds arbitrarily close. Can you tell apart [a æ]? What about [a̝ æ̞]? How close can they get before you can’t distinguish them by ear? Before a speaker of another language can’t distinguish them by ear? Before you can’t distinguish them even with a spectrogram? And the language you speak really is important — I’m fine distinguishing [p pʰ], I think, but I know people who can’t even hear a difference. Linguists talk as if there were specific sounds, but really there’s only ‘fuzzy’ sets of sounds which people perceive as being more or less similar.

I don't get why the first response of the startup is to go on the attack and fight the NRC without responding to the substance of the claims. This is the part of startup behavior I really dislike. Fake it till you make it and be loud and boisterous and brash but still deflect and push vague promises. It's hard to put the required trust in these companies when they react like this. Don't they want people to trust their offering? Especially in a market where trust is everything? Calm down startup founders and stop blustering your way to "success".
True. Even scientists don't "follow the science". They get emotionally involved with a hypothesis, and then try to hammer the evidence to fit it.
It wont be long till a long read will be published that will summarise all the empty flights that have taken place just to maintain the rights. I’ve never heard of Brussel airlines at all so I’m sure this is just a part of the tip of the iceberg. I truly hope the airline industry stops being the sweetheart of politics and finally gets the pummelling that they’ve long deserved. The race to the bottom has been long done and to think it’s ok to fly to Spain from Amsterdam for 30 euros is just a slap in the face for anyone that has a semblance of interest in the climate.

Ten years at the company I joined after college. I loved it, but faltered in the last year in a new role and environment that was different. With covid and all the nostalgia of the campus gone, I got a cold call offering a job with a large pay bump in my prior field of expertise. No brainer.

Should we also distribute influenza tests to everyone for use every time they meet friends or family? If not, why not? Seasonal influenza has a somewhat lower fatality rate but it still kills thousands every year and can be spread by asymptomatic carriers.
Yes, I understand that. My point is that many in Congress want these companies to preemptively censor what happens on their platforms and these subpoenas is an attempt to build that case.

Hi everyone! This project scratches an itch I've had for awhile now (ok, maybe 5+ years). I used to love using goo.gl in the past. It was an easy way to collect analytics for links that I would share around, and was accurate in it's reporting where other services like bit.ly were not.

I couldn't find anything that would do a few things I was looking for:

- Allow me to create a short URL, and instantly have a dashboard
- Give me basic geo, browser and referrer information like goo.gl did
- Not require me to make an account for this information.

I understand bullet point three is a feature that could go both ways, but the point is that I wanted something where I can get up and running with a shareable link as quickly as possible.

As for the tech stack, I tried to use some technologies that I haven't used before, and some that I have.

- It's written in Go, I'm very familiar with the language and have used it at scale.
- Hosted on AWS Beanstalk - again I'm familiar with hosting software here, and Beanstalk has the opportunity to use arm64 machines which I was eager to test out, so it was just a matter of me compiling a linux/arm64 compatible binary to push out. I'm on the smallest instance available at a cost of ~$3.60/mo.
- Uses dynamodb for meta data - I've used Mongo in the past, but I wanted to use something I didn't need to manage, and Aurora was cost prohibitive for a project that may never see the light of day.
- Uses Timestream for analytical data - Again, I didn't want to use MySQL to track this data, I wanted to find something scaleable and I knew timeseries databases were all the rage. I saw that this is a pay-as-you go solution and a zero-maintenance service.

Hopefully someone else that misses the simplicity of goo.gl will find this useful!

Just to flip this on it's head a bit (because different perspectives are more illuminating than crude dichotomies).

One of the underlying principles they use to justify not supporting external configuration, is minimal code. The absence of configs are one of many sacrifices they make for their ~1000 line limit. So on the face of it, it seems elitist, but on the other hand this principle makes the code significantly more accessible... one group (non programmers) have been more excluded; another group (programmers of almost all stripes) have had the barrier to entry significantly lowered due to this principle, not only to configure it, but to very feasibly change any aspect of it as they see fit.

"pure religious flamebait" seems to me to be a very hostile reading. I simply meant to add context to the parent's argument, which I agree with. I apologies for any offense given, but it was just a religious reference, not a sneer of any kind.

I do apologize for "You Apple users", the intended lightness obviously did not come through, and it could have been more neutral.

Perhaps my comparison of an abusive corporate relationship to an abusive personal one was overly terse, but I think that the metaphor adds useful perspective.

First, Grammarly has nothing to do with this suspension or any problem with the videos in question.

Second, this is not a flaw or a hack but an unsuccessful attempt to use Grammarly for an UNINTENDED purpose. Grammarly is not meant for anti-plagiarism enforcement. Grammarly aims to help users avoid accidental or unintentional plagiarism by highlighting parts that may need to be cited. So it does not attempt to deal with any plagiarisms enforcement countermeasures - if someone is deliberately masking plagiarism, it's definitely not unintentional or accidental. It's trivial to overcome these particular counter-measures but that's just not what Grammarly is for.

I wouldn't go as far as to say that categorically, since I know a lot of very competent programmers who use individual suckless tools. But it's been my observation that a lot of "hyper-minimal"/"code as configuration" ricer-types tend to both use suckless tools and not be great programmers.

Of course and that’s why you shouldn’t do that. I don’t know about other languages, but if you want to advance a certain number of days, you don’t just add seconds. Any code review would pick that apart.

You add (or subtract) date components, meaning you specify a day, week or whatever unit.

Th article does cover these.

For #1, see the section headed "The risk of non-payment". Prior to the mortgages going into the pool, insurance against default is purchased from a GSE. In exchange for this insurance payment, in the event of default, the GSE buys back the mortgage for the remaining principle balance. So as an investor in the typical MBS, you don't face this risk.

For #2 and #3, while it could go into it in more detail, this is discussed in the section titled "Every other risk you could imagine, of which there are many". It notes that the value does change as a result of interest rate changes (in the context of noting this as a key reason why most mortgages are not held by banks, but other institutional investors which can better tolerate this interest rate risk).
What you're describing is a Staff or Principal Engineer title and should be compensated accordingly.
"Paragraphenreiter" in German. It turns out many of these "untranslatable" words are shared across entire language families.

As a computer science guy I did my own ELI5, found out how insertion sequences work, found the paper about HIV-1 and 2019-nCov, but it is true, it takes time to understand.

Even without spending time my heuristics is that I find biases in the claim and find out how referenced it is. This one had plenty red flags, including dismissing the RaTG13 results claiming that they were just put into the database after people started questioning, the adversarial tone, presumptions and so on. Conspiracy theorists use recognizable heuristics, but their motivation is to seek attention, for which there is large competition. They want to be relevant, but who doesn't. Conspiracy theorists are not really into publishing a paper either, a blog post, video or tweet is all you get, it's not about the truth and it is easier to avoid being found out this way, though social media these days have fact checkers, so they have to fly under the radar or keep to the social circles that are not bothered by fact checkers.

Knowing about biases and how to recognize them is a vital skill, should be taught in schools. Everyone needs a working bullshit meter.

It's a fair point, and there are specs[0] defined for these uses. Something like rclone could certainly do it this way if Google supports it on their end. But IMO the UX of browser-redirect OAuth is actually pretty dang good. I would like to have that available for CLI apps. What if you could literally import an ncurses library directly into your app and do the flow in-process? I'm not even sure if there's a way to do that securely but it would be sweet.

> As an aside, to my knowledge OAuth2 still works in PaleMoon.

That's going to depend completely on the OAuth2 implementation on the authorization server. It's completely up to the provider whether to require JavaScript or other features in order to render their consent page. Having a stronger specification of how to build those pages would offer more guarantees for interoperability.

Alex Berenson is not a journalist but a conspiracy theorist with no relevant training or experience. He is not a good source of advice on vaccination.

The Kaiser-Permanente study you linked is by actual medical experts and it paints a more nuanced perspective which is why it contradicts his claims — for example, they have the two dose effectiveness at preventing infection by Delta over 50% even a year out.

Most importantly, and the main reason I'm replying to this, is that it's _really_ important to also remember that there are two reasons to get vaccinated. One is to prevent infection entirely (largely a product of neutralizing antibodies, which fade relatively quickly) but the other is to lower the severity of an infection (a product of T cells, which is longer lasting) and the data continues to show that vaccines remain highly effective considerably longer than 3 months:

Promoting the voices of antivaxers like Alex Berenson is the single most effective way to prolong the pandemic since the thing which will allow us to return to normal will be high levels of vaccination reducing the severity of an infection to manageable levels.

Just after being laid off, I was thinking I would love to find part-time work in my profession, but as far as I can tell no such thing exists (for an unknown such as myself). Non-W2 contracting might be as close as I could get, but in that case, it'd be "a few months on (40+ hrs/wk), a few months off" rather than 20 hours per week steady work.

Having now experienced the absence of the daily grind for over 4 months (for the first time in my adult life), I am getting so used to being away from it that I realize I would probably have a hard time going back to the grind, regimentation, and employer expectations of "gung ho" spirit pursuing the idealistic mission statement proffered by top management (yes, I'm cynical). So in the end I think where I'm at is good for me for now. I've been blessed to have a successful, lucrative (though perhaps only slightly above average in my field) career that (combined with aggressive saving and investing for that duration) enables me to uncouple from it at this time without financial worry.
