This probably doesn’t classify as a “digicam”—too much film camera styling, expensive, and has interchangeable lenses.

One thing the author missed: Python's syntax for functional programming is really awful. Even Java streams feel like a work of art when I am forced to use expressions with 50 closing braces in python
Fascinating. I guess I am surprised because I had thought of NIH as focused on human/public health, and there is so much to life sciences that is non-human. I would have thought there would be more major sources of funding. For example, something around ag science.
>I had to open Regedit during setup to bypass the TPM check

Wait, how do you open regedit during setup when you perform the installation by booting off the USB drive? AFAIK that installer has no access to the registry since the registry hasn't been configured yet as you're doing a fresh install from scratch so there is no registry on the blank HDD/SSD.

Anyhow, I did this procedure 3 weeks ago on my 2015 intel chip and Windows did not complain using the unaltered official ISO.
Golfing is an expensive passtime for 99.9% of the people who play it. It's not something that should ever be viewed as a "dream job" and if you do have aspirations to be a pro and didn't start working on it before age 10, you never will be one.
What an intelligent way to look at the world. If the law says something that is the exact truth. No room for any nuance.

The day before your 18th birthday, you're a kid, the day after you're an adult. Makes perfect sense.

Clearly someone who looks at the world this way must be under 18.
Yes you're right, now that I read it doesn't make sense.. I guess what I wanted to say is that is that at least initially it replaced a huge number of medium paying jobs with a large number of low paying and a small number of extremely well paying jobs.

Due to the massively the increased efficiency the industrial revolution created many many of them low skilled new jobs which couldn't have existed earlier. An average person in the 19th century probably consumed significantly more textile and other manufactured products than someone in the prior centuries. However in the beginning this increase in efficiency led to large decrease in incomes due to the surplus in labour and in part because efficiency increases in agriculture were trailing behind other areas. E.g. an unskilled worker in the UK could only purchase about 60% of the amount of bread in ~1800 compared to what he could in 1750 (real earnings only started to grow significantly between 1850 and 1875.

Modern automation on the other hand seems to mostly just replaced many low and medium paying jobs with a smaller number of high paying ones.

> If I had $100k

Precisely. For a starters you already told us you don't have type of "first comers crypto gains" like OP wrote about. I know a person that has over 10,000 bitcoins from early days, and he treat those as "fuck off coins". At this level you don't look at it as "gee, whos gonna pay $100k for some easy to copy pixels!", you look at it like "oh shit Eminem just dropped $400k on some pixels, let me use some of my fuck off coins to get on board - who knows this thing can quadruple in 10 years. Or go to zero. In both scenarios, whatever". Hardly people at this level care about whether they lose money or not. The point is to be a part of the "movement", to be part of the deal that's going. Its adrenaline rush.

The point is, if it goes down to 0 they couldn't care less. Its a fuck off coins to start with.
I think playing with money systems, ideas of value etc is interesting. The average contribution was about $50 - so like a kickstarter for a fan club.

> My point is - there are plenty of jobs where you absolutely will quit and not work if the basic income can provide a sufficient su

I'm neither arguing for nor against UBI here, but from my understanding, you description is not of UBI. Here you are saying income as a substitute for work. Where as UBI as I understand it is provided independent of work. Meaning that by your spouse quitting she would be losing half of her income.

Maybe she still makes that trade off and quits and the program needs to raise wages to keep people. Or maybe she stays in place for the pay (with abuse). Or maybe the programs doesn't raise wages and has worse/fewer employees as a result.

But it doesn't sounds like the situation you describe is UBI.

Exactly which part requires it? Indeed, the very definition asserts that 'race' is a social construct designed for the purpose of opressing some for the benefit of others.

I think one must instead ask themselves "where the hell did I get this notion of what critical race theory means?".
Prototypes were in the original C standard of 1985, before first edition of The C++ Programming Language was released and long before C++ was formalized standardized.
There are other taxes than income taxes. My idealistic view of UBI is a way to share the increasing benefit of automation. So if a factory owner fires all his employees and replaces them with robots, his increased profits are rather heavily taxed and go to UBI. I am aware of how logistically difficult it would be to have a fair "automation tax" though. But the point is: income tax is not the only tax, and probably not even the best tax, to fund UBI.
In that scenario, you’d still need to work. Basic income increases workers’ bargaining power because they can quit without losing their entire income.
Are you saying Harry Potter himself was nerdy? Because he definitely never did homework or studied and lucked into every solution he ran into by dumb luck.

Seismically active regions (e.g. California) absolutely have more earthquake experts than other places... I am not sure why that metaphor is singled out when the rest of the article is pretty clear its about finding the difference between a burning building and a building-set-on-fire.

It's not basic income if it goes away when you get a job.

A large part of the problem that UBI was envisioned to solve is that means-tested welfare systems can find a steady-state equilibrium as poverty traps (as you noted, if you lose your welfare upon getting a job, the welfare support itself becomes a disincentive to working).

One, why waste $50 on a complaint which won't have any effect?

Two, the bureaucracy actually should help with the real moochies. In Ontario Canada tenant protections are crazy and it can take 6+ months for a landlord to evict a non-paying tenant. The official resolution for landlords is to ask the bureaucracy for help.

(The non-official resolution is promoting ignorance about tenant protection laws, legitimately or illegitimately making use of the "family moving in" loophole, and hopefully not any more.)
If Python was a barrier on data/ML, then certainly the the data/ML community would have circled around a different programming language... but it didn't. All evidence says Python has some quality about it that that makes it good for data/ML but you think it's a drag? You even point out that Swift couldn't replace it despite efforts.

The author has the same weird logic that Python wouldn't be as popular without Numpy... but it does have Numpy... Usain Bolt wouldn't be as fast if he didn't have legs too.
If nobody is bidding, there's no asks to cause the price to go down. More likely, someone buying all of the stock either a) intends to take it private, at which point there is no more stock anymore or b) intends to fold it into another company, at which point there is no more stock anymore. (Of course, the valuation would likely go down anyways, because people usually pay a premium to buy all of the stock.)
I wonder the same thing.

I do not like GNOME 3 at all myself. A lot of the features that the developers are proud of – things like CSD, no menu bars, that big empty wasted panel with no indicator icons, the clear empty desktop with no desktop icons and so on – are the specific things I do not like.

I still use Unity on Ubuntu. One of my machines has the latest version of the Unity remix on it:
https://ubuntuunity.org/

... but little regressions are accumulating. I can't empty the wastebasket from the dock any more; the volume control works but mousewheel control is now reversed (down is up, and up is down, although I have "natural scrolling" turned off); Firefox doesn't support the global menu bar any more; and so on.

It seems to me that a lot of modern desktops are removing features, or changing features (like the disappearance of menu bars), because people today don't know how to use them. Since they don't know how, they don't use them, so they feel that these features are not important, so they remove them.

Similarly, Windows 11 has now lost support for vertical taskbars. KDE has it but it's broken, as it was in GNOME 2 and now is in MATE. Cinnamon has a crude form, but it can't arrange status icons in rows, only in columns, which wastes a huge amount of space... but I suspect they've never seen a vertical taskbar, so they don't know how it should work.

I love them.

Still, it seems that even those that clearly are solved problem can be done badly. Recently KFC rolled out here. And their kiosk seem to miss the basic options to customize the meals. Like just removing things. Can't do that with meals... Have list of extra options of stuff possibly not even in the product... Actually they don't even tell anywhere what is in their burgers. But I digress. All other chains including the local one manage to have these options present...

So in the end automation won't always solve everything immediately...
Just as a counterpoint, my company uses Google Workspace for email and we receive a good deal of spam. Been using it a couple years now and it's been very good at identifying spam, with very few false positives.

Who picks strawberries today in high-income countries/locations, where strawberry pickers have all sorts of alternatives available? There's your answer. It tends to cost more, but not much more. And the increased cost is offset to a large extent by improved specialization in those lines of work, and the ensuing productivity.

There is a very clear definition of convexity, as can be seen here [1] on Wikipedia. Nothing to discuss about with regards to definition.

Ah I see, it's not manipulation because you perceive the fed as acting virtuously.

That's actually not the mandate of the fed.

The mandate is:
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Open Market Committee shall maintain long run growth of the monetary and credit aggregates commensurate with the economy's long run potential to increase production, so as to promote effectively the goals of maximum employment, stable prices, and moderate long-term interest rates.

Whether prices are currently stable or interest rates are moderate are a lively source of discussion. Regardless of opinion here, I think you have a generous definition of manipulation to exclude acts operating under a nominal mandate of some vague interest of society (and I may add many other acts made under pretext of interest in society are source of outrage on HN).
Call me when Netflix costs $100/month and has ads after every 2 minutes of content. I mean, its sad to see Netflix slowly getting worse, but don't forget what kind of hot garbage cable is.

Only if you ignore the appreciation on the investment asset (eg the house). That's most of the reason to rent out a house - for the future sale of the property. This would just mean landlords would need to buy the maintenance costs until they sell up.

Influence. A completely amazing amount of Java was written (is being written) and there's a huge workforce in that language.

I think that it's possible if say Gosling hated + concatenating and had provided Java with a different String concatenate (it clearly wants a concatenate operator, but it needn't be named +) we'd see that popularised and while some languages with overloading might overload + it wouldn't be ubiquitous. I can't prove that of course, it's purely my opinion.

And that paragraph of mine was in response to this paragraph by JetAlone:

> You can wash your hands if you think it is wise to, but don't make it a matter of spiritual, ritual cleanliness that you place trust in the performance of above God as the pharisees did. As you say, God can make the water a worse poison to you.

That paragraph is very much refering to the present, not to biblical times. For some reason, contrary to what most Christians belive, JetAlone seems to doubt the usefulness of hand washing, because why bother, God can make the water into poison.

JetAlone, do you believe in a malevolent God?

In a way, I can understand it. If you have ultimate unshakable faith in God: a) You believe God will not let any harm befall you no matter how irresponsible your behaviour. b) You also believe that should harm befall you, it is inevitable, because it is God's will. But is this not called tempting God and against Christian dogma?
I'd like to believe this is true, but it's both counter-intuitive and counter to my actual lived experience the last couple of years.

I'm not sure how it's going down in other countries, but in Canada we've had an unintentional experiment with this due to the pandemic. Our economic relief package allows people to collect government insurance if they're out of work due to Covid. But unlike traditional employment insurance, everyone gets the same amount, and that amount turns out to be more than you could make working full-time at minimum wage.

Now, full disclosure, I'm unabashedly socialist in my leanings. I want UBI to work. I also don't believe that a person's value should be determined by their output. So I'm the last person to be against Basic Income.

However, we have to look at the results. And the results in Canada are that it's almost impossible to hire enough people to work those entry-level roles anymore:

- In my home city of Sudbury, the school bus companies are now offering a $2k signing bonus plus several dollars above minimum wage to attract drivers. They still can't get enough drivers and we're dealing with rolling daily bus cancellations as a result.

- As a hiring manager myself, I've found that jobs that used to get an abundance of high-quality applicants are now getting almost no qualified applicants at all. We're offering starting wages that are, in many cases, $20k more per year than they were a decade ago, and $10k more than they were 2 years ago. This is in a market where the average household income is well under $50k.

- Unemployment rates are higher than they've been in a long time despite the fact that job vacancies are higher than they've ever been.

Now, we can argue back and forth about whether the above is an acceptable trade-off for all the benefits of UBI. But my experience very much suggests that basic income does indeed reduce people's willingness to work.
This pandemic is also coupled with a chip supply shortage that will also increase the cost/difficulty of automating for a bit.
Cyber security is not important
>I’ve mentored a lot of juniors. It’s not uncommon for young people, especially those with less developed social skills.

Sure, but even as a junior employee, we're still talking about mature adults here, not kindergarten kiddies, who can vote, pay taxes and are held accountable for their actions in front of the law, so they should be aware that deliberately backdooring their employer so that they can surveillance their boss, not only most likely violates their employment contract they signed and can have serious legal backlash against then both from the company and from the person who's privacy they were trying to break.

>It’s common with young people who have debilitating anxiety and a tendency toward rumination.

Yeah, I get that, but how is this in excuse for hacking your employer/boss? Why not seek therapy from professionals for that and try to either quit toxic workplaces or report abusive bosses and find a workplace that accommodates your personality and emotional type, not try to hack and backdoor your employer's network to keep tabs on your boss.

There is no workplace in the world and no work colleagues that will tolerate you hacking their network and invading their privacy because you have anxiety and a tendency toward rumination.
I think vector math is a compelling example but it is far from the only one. Bignum arithmetic is probably just as common if not more so, in fact I see that Zig actually has a bignum library built in if I understand correctly. Using that library will be painful because of this choice. There are plenty of other such examples, imagine implementing (and then using) something like SymPy in Zig.

Sculptures
When I was a teenager, I probably would have dug violent vigilantism (like I enjoyed "Mad Max" when it came out at that time). My own art back then reflected a cynical, dark, post-apocalyptic future (likely inspired by films like "A Boy and His Dog" as an example).

Story time: in those days the "copy shops" were ma and pa (the way the original video rental stores were) and the nearest copy shop where I took some of my art to be "Xeroxed" was, apparently, run by a born-again Christian.

When I picked up my art he felt I needed a preachin' to. "Why spend your talents making the world a darker place?" Why not make positive art?" (Or something along those lines. I think "glory of God" was in there too and was in fact the tell.)

I thought at the time how boring that would be, how "non-cool", "non-art" that was. I laughed it off.

Three decades later I can begin to appreciate his disappointment in younger me. The world events since (and since I got older and started paying attention) have informed me that indeed there is already too many horrific (real) things in the world.

Older me now just can't enjoy, for example, a Quentin Tarantino film (no doubt teen me would have loved it though).

I have no interest in Frank Miller. I don't want to live in his world, don't care even to look at it.
