This is exactly our experience with Youtube.

I can sit with my kid and watch a couple episodes of a show I've never heard of (Like Bluey) and say, "Yep, this is a definite thumbs up. You can watch Bluey when you have screen time" And I trust that when an episode ends, another episode of Bluey is what will show up.

For a youtube channel, I have to watch the entire video and I can say, "Yep, you can watch this exact video. Make sure autoplay is off."

I have no clue what video would play next. I have no clue what product the youtuber will try to shill in the middle of the video, etc.
True but networks have a severe time slot constraint, in addition to the same production costs as Netflix, so it's a lot more understandable. Maybe my perception is off but Netflix seems even worse about killing new shows after 1-2 seasons, which is pretty ridiculous IMO.

Netflix seems overly reliant on small scale KPIs at the expense of the overall experience. Of course it's possible that they know exactly what they're doing and I'm just far away from their target consumer.

No. He underestimated the final price by 2M, which means he offered ~660k.

I watched the auction, there was one person from Colorado (possibly the DAO creator), and another person from Europe.
A lot of answers here are about the skills you’ll learn, which is all well and good, but it sounds like you already know how to program as well as most CS grads. What you don’t know how to do yet is interact socially at a high level with college grads, and that’s something you can only learn in college, and will likely (I know there are exceptions, but they’re rare) benefit you a lot more in your career than knowing how to build a discord bot. Also, college can be really fun, and that’s worth a lot.

FTX claims they buyback FTT based on financial results. Their business model has more historical precedent than e.g. Uber’s (and is arguably less legally grey).

What difference am I missing?
Implied by your question is the suggestion that the solution is just to abolish government agencies entirely, thus leaving people with no recourse against massive megacorporations, as opposed to trying to fix the problem in some meaningful way.

It's certainly true that there are problems with the current implementation of the mechanics of our government, but the idea that throwing them out entirely would leave us with something better just doesn't pass the sniff test.
The reporter appears to be confused.

> At the same time, Google would charge advertisers the price of the second-highest bid and pocket the difference

If my third highest bid is less than the second highest bid, there is no way to charge me the second highest bid. This is nonsensical.
>Netflix’s Prices Are Rising Faster Than Cable

If you were starting a company like Netflix, you would best realize this is essential beforehand.

I have a feeling you will need to find a contracting firm that brings in H1B's. All these companies that hire H!B's typically get them thorough contractors and not directly.

Everyone's experiences are different! It's helpful to share things we may consider "old news" because it may just end up benefiting those around us.
Original MacOS X ran unmodified apps for original Mac (which they called Classic) using emulation, slightly modified apps for the original Mac (recomplied to Carbon APIs) or slightly-modified NeXTStep apps (using Cocoa APIs AND InterfaceBuilder which became part of Xcode), or even slightly-modified Unix apps (using POSIX APIs) along with AppleScript for automation. There were few NeXTStep/Cocoa apps, except for simple graphical wrappers around POSIX apps. Then Apple started killing off APIs (including Carbon), changing functionality and picking winners/losers to drive the developers to retrain, rewrite and maintain their code base for Cocoa, which most did not do, leaving Mac OS native apps to languish for many years (sort of similar situation to AppleWatchOS), especially after the codebase was forked to become iOS. However, HTML5 apps were on the rise and WebKit sort of kept the Mac hardware sales going. Then, a year ago, Apple introduced the ability to run iPad apps on new Macs and rolled out SwiftUI (which, when it works, can target either iPad or macOS natively), which is sort of the final nail in the coffin for Cocoa.
They're regulated by the CFTC which also does not use the Securities Act

The CFTC literally just got a fraud statute in 2010

They mostly follow their earlier mandate and the new mandate doesn’t alter it too much

Trying to apply it to spot assets just because a derivative market is affected requires a huge stretch and risk of getting the agency embarrassed and curb stomped in the courts

I think in most cases supporting kids with money and professional experience is family merit. The family spent money and effort to help its next generation. Maybe they are not rich, just education focused and ready to sacrifice a lot to achieve it. On the other hand having too much family wealth correlates negatively with academic accomplishments.

The complexity of art and math doesn't change depending on how you learn or how rich is your father. Even with support a kid has to gain the same useful skills. What matters is ability, not how the kid got there. They are just kids, everything that shaped society into what it is happened before they were grown enough to have any say in it.
I don’t buy that analogy one bit.

BTC supply is growing at a rate of less than 2% now. 90% of the supply is already mined.

Miners play a very small role now in getting new supply
I'm not sure that happiness == hedonism? I would contend that most people spend too much time and effort chasing eg "being an expert in field x" or "getting a job with consultancy k" because they mistakenly think it's a good thing in and of itself.

Maybe I'm wrong! Maybe our goals should be lofty and our own happiness tangential - but I don't buy it. If anything I think more people should think about things that make them happy, rather than focussing on abstract life goals that may or may not do that.
I definitely fall into this category. I stopped on Day 8 Part 2 this year getting frustrated and falling behind. Good practice for sure and I feel more prepared for next year, still, just wanted to post that I identify myself in what you mention here!
I still have one of those too. I do love the keyboard on that, it feels very luxurious to me, but I have to admit I can't type as fast as I can on my 2019 MBP work or 2021 M1 personal MacBook Pros.

I'm definitely in the minority in that I actually prefer the 2019 keyboard over the others. It's the "fixed" version with the rubber gasket that prevents dirt getting in the works and I've never had an issue with a stuck key. Maybe it's because I'm a very light typist, but the 2019 butterfly keyboard never leaves my fingers feeling tired after a day of typing, where the 2007 keyboard did.
There are at least two types of having problems.

There's having a problem like having a jigsaw puzzle. It sits in front of you and is there to solve. Your organization's problem could be making a faster database or improving education outcomes in a neighborhood. An organization can remain functional in the face of these problems.

There's another type of having a problem which is like having a cold. It's in you and affects you. You organization's problem could be the front line employees don't trust leadership or you don't have enough resources. It's much harder to remain functional in the face of these types of problems. I think the author is referring more to this second type.
I find the speech MLK gave a day before he was killed much more relevant today.
He calls for unity and challenges our ideals. He spoke on April 3, 1968 and was assassinated the next day (Chilling sometimes as he discusses his own death).

I would like an email service where, when someone wants to send me an email, they have to first get some hash, e.g., "{hash}.myaccount@myprovider.com".

Then, in order to get the hash, they have to paypal me 20 cents.

If my attention is not worth 20 cents to them, then they should not be contacting me in the first place.

Further replies to the same thread should be free for some period of time (e.g. a month or so).
No, I'm not claiming anything about a currency being manipulated. I'm saying the idea that a currency in and of itself is being manipulated is completely irrelevant to this discussion. Currency manipulation, in the context of the OP's discussion, implies one currencies relation to another one, in this case USD and BTC.

Federal interest rates affecting the value of your dollar making purchases for goods and services is completely irrelevant.
I concur wholeheartedly. The use of indexes in Pandas makes working with timerseries data so much nicer and that's why indexing is an important part of the API.
I suspect from the fact it was mentioned in the program "Hancock's Half Hour" in the fifties. you probably have to be 70/80+ to know about this.

This is actually a really important nuance. NFTs/crypto have a really short turnaround time - which means they can run the scam much quicker and at massive scale.
You can buy it in California too - less common due to their CARB requirements but places that service boats/offroad vehicles will have "recreational fuel" that's typically higher octane but ethanol-free.
I can feel it happening. When Netflix was cheap, I kept it around and rented 2-3 movies a month. Now I have no interest in their new content and they don't have much old content anymore. It's now just too violent and sex obsessed for my tastes. They even continue to host "Riverdale", a show that tries to be hip and cool by rewriting Archie comics with plenty of statuatory rape. But it's not even presented as a bad thing. Just more "forbidden fruit."
In addition to the sibling comment explaining the difference, consider that Vienna is an old city with many equivalent names in many languages. These names developed naturally over an extended period of time.

Hawaii does not have an equivalent history and so has no equivalent name in English. If the (English-speaking) people who live in such a place want to spell it in a specific way, what kind of an arrogant ass are you to tell them otherwise?

Are you going to also bristle at and take umbrage with the spelling "Reykjavík" instead of "Reykjavik"?

Except it's hammered home in the UK to use credit cards for online purchases where possible for Section 75 protection as well as if the card details are involved in a breach you don't have your bank account emptied and can't pay your bills.

Section 75 in particular has a lot of attention in the UK because over the last 4 years a lot of businesses have gone bust, and people who paid by bank transfer or debit card were shafted, receiving pennies on the pound (if that).

I don't receive any emails for about 6-12 months, and then I start receiving emails again. At least that's what has happened with NextDoor, twice - once each for different emails months/years apart.

Amazon is also in the easiest position to offer support, since for the bulk of support queries, if all else fails, they can just absorb the cost and refund the customer. The customer is usually not any worse than when they started if they do this.

The money spent on a purchase is fungible. There is no obvious monetary refund to give to someone who can't update their app, got their YouTube channel taken down or got their Instagram handle stolen.

Other than an adjuvant developed by NIH to increase the efficacy of Covaxin I do not see why you claim Covaxin itself was developed by NIH. AFAIK it was developed by Indian agencies.

Other than that, I agree with this comment.

But it is not a new problem. It is a very old problem, since way way before the pandemic. There is no pandemic related evil here. FDA restricts the import of foreign cheaper drugs for various reasons including patents.
You should've picked up by now that my argument is mostly economical. If you can do one thing fast and cheap, and the other slow and expensive, every rational person knows what to do, and it has nothing to do with science. I've repeated multiple times:

- it's a fact building nuclear is expensive even when it's on budget, and it's costs can balloon to ridiculous levels

- it's a fact it's slow even when it's on time which it can really blow up

- it's a fact the costs of Fukushima will be multiple hundreds of billions of dollars.

- it's a fact that had Japan switched off their plants in 2010 and invested $200B in renewables you would've called them crazy, but this would've been an amazing call for them

- it's a fact that most of Germany's plants were old and planned for decomissioning anyway

- it's a fact nuclear plants get decomissioned all over the world because of the same reasons. it's likely that nuclear capacity added for last year is negative since more was decomissioned than added

- it's a fact Germany will have to pay €170B in the next decades for the storage of nuclear waste. this number would've only been higher without the forced decomissioning. instead the public invested in renewables with amazing results

So those are all facts. The rational people around the world, that invest their $$$, have looked at facts and numbers and called your "scientific" reasoning total nonsense.
An interesting comment on MLK published today [1].

[1] https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/jan/17/mlk-is...
No problem at all: unpoly is a great piece of software and I very much understand being a passionate fan of it. The approach Henning took is quite ingenious.
I paid for alternate OS X versions (and then jumped on the snow leopard wagon immediately due to the $29? price).

That meant shelling out $129 after about 3 years (2 year lifecycles, and I think I bought my first mac almost a year into the then OS lifecycle).

This provided me with excellent stability and a very reasonable price. I'd save up a few hundred $s, and then upgrade the software and hardware at around the same time, so I also added additional RAM and moved the HDD to the CD-RW and inserted an SSD instead of the HDD (I am 100% sure I made these changes for my macbook, but I'm not sure if I made them, or if they were even possible, for the iBook I owned before).

That was almost a decade+ of highly stable, highly effective, and almost cutting edge of computing that I haven't even come close to replicating in the almost decade since, despite earning real money.

I did switch to Linux for my personal computing a few months ago, and I have hopes that this may allow me to do so, once I really set something up once I get to my Mar-Apr spring cleaning. Linux is giving me that Mac feeling for the first time in a long time, although the major challenge here appears to be restraining oneself. It seems so easy to get lost trying to distro hop constantly, or try a new terminal for marginal benefits, etc. The new shiny in Linux shines very bright, and restraint seems to be the core challenge required to have a stable, outcome focused computing experience with Linux.
I truly appreciate your experience and cynicism here. People who haven't worked in financial markets have a hard time appreciating how deep the muck can get. Which makes them especially valuable suckers for the unregulated markets.
How long does it take to you to produce something? How often do you commit code? If it’s taking a long time, are you waiting to complete an entire feature from beginning to end, or do you commit along the way? Can others see your progress along the way? Do have interactions with other team members, or are you hidden away, out of sight, while others are more engaged? When you get blocked, do you ask for help? Do you take initiative to figure out what to do next, or do you rely on someone else to spoon feed you exactly what task to work on?

Did you feel like you were a good fit at that company? Whenever you were fired, was it a surprise? Did you feel like you should have been delivering more or more often, or was it a surprise?
I think, in general, UIs back then felt more "human": soft, intuitive, yes, sometimes a bit clunky, and yes, sometimes with contradictions (like any human being). Now they feel more "robotic": harsh, darker (or is it that designers nowadays tend to use softened colors?), precise as any machine (but this doesn't always mean that they are easier for humans to use). Robotic, though, doesn't seem too far off: society is becoming more and more robotic I believe.
You get a ridiculous page that makes it as confusing as possible to actually unsubscribe from everything. Once you succeed at that, you stop getting emails from them until they roll out their next marketing campaign, which you couldn't unsubscribe from because it didn't exist yet.

Per the cost of content creation:

> Netflix spent approximately $17 billion on content in 2021 and ended the year with an estimated 222 million subscribers, a cost per subscriber of $76.60 (keep in mind that Netflix has other costs like sales, marketing, facilities, and labor just like any other company). Under the new subscription pricing model, 41% of the annualized price of the standard plan will go towards covering Netflix’s content costs, down from 47% before the price hike.
I don't see why "size gained if deleted" "does not [care about links]".

What I've learned in my experience with ZFS, Lustre, and other filesystems is that the user simply cannot get what you're asking for, not with any kind of real reliability. For distributed filesystems (like Lustre), the kind of thing you're asking for is simply ETOOHARD or ETOOSLOW. It's very easy to insist on a solution, and very hard to get one.
