There are a whole bunch of really bad inner city schools - to the point that "inner city school" is synonymous with bad education. Tutoring is expensive, most middle and low income families can't afford them.

If you are wealthy enough to afford a tutor in the city, then great you can bring out a tutor to you or live near a good school.

The first 3 of those act like debt, forcing you to spend more of something in the future if it's not changed. The last one is only a debt if you consider the emotional cost, which I think is debatable.

Yes, some people use 'tech debt' improperly and aren't actually describing something that acts like a dead. Poorly structured code means the coders need to spend more time implementing new features than they would if it were just correct, for example, so that's actually 'technical debt'. Not taking care of the business's needs isn't technical debt (faster onboarding, etc), it's just a problem.
Your problem is that you're putting yourself above "short guys looking for girlfriends, unattractive/aging women looking for husbands".

Also don't get caught in the mentality that drinking together is some sort of pinnacle of human fun. I would rather read a book or bicycle.
Maybe you’re being sarcastic, but the point of a soft modem was to save the cost of a DSP chip in the modem and just run the software on the host CPU in the driver. That drivers were not written for OSes other than windows was mostly a function of Window’s 95+% market share.

What do you eat though?

It sounds like the diverse mix of cultures one finds in cities may not be something that adds value for you, but it certainly does for me.

Also, one of the reasons people enjoy cities is because of the proximity to stuff. Living in a city I can walk to everything from the grocery store and a plethora of restaurants, to the local theatre.

Living in a city those things are often at most a 15 minute walk.

Living somewhere deeply suburban or rural, you often have to drive more than 15 minutes to reach a single one of those things.

Sure you have tinder, but just doing the math based on population density one can see that cities have an advantage if you like a diverse dating pool.

Yes living in a city costs more, but it’s because there is more demand. That demand is sustained by real world individuals deciding cities have value for them.
There is a spectrum, can we agree on that?

We are programmers yes? Is a monolith better or is mass distribution better? Depends yes?

In business and operations do economies of scale exist? Or is it always better to be separate individual groups not operating under a larger shared structure? Depends.

"Diversity" taken to the extreme is entropy. Obviously extreme entropy is incoherent.

Politically, socially, culturally, mass diversity is correlated with decline of social cohesion, loyalty, trust, common sacrifice and rise in tribal and political conflict.

There are advantages for sure to exposure to broad viewpoints and new information. Having a cohesive and generally homogeneous society (and this can be defined along many axes don't forget.. not just "race". How about social values, political views, ethnic culture, shared historical experience etc) does not preclude one from learning and being curious and open to new perspectives. But it does eliminate petty conflicts that can waste time and energy and get in the way of real progress and collective power.

When you hear about companies strongly promoting their "company culture", aside from the requisite amount of skepticism about this being marketing and hot air, is there a kernel of truth to the idea that everyone being on some degree of the same page helps that organization work together better to achieve shared goals?

Would it be better for, say, a military unit, a sports team, a corporation to have all their members having very divergent viewpoints, cultural values, philosophies, mission statements, purposes, motivations etc? Not always. Can we at least say that... not always?

Team building, creating elements of homogeneity, shared purpose, and loyalty, wouldn't be a common endeavor (not that it is perfect) for all of these entities if so.

You can do linear time complexity as long as the keys you are sorting don’t duplicate. The moment they do you can’t bean nlogn. Logn is basically the overhead of the worst case probability when keys overlap.

Just to be clear if you keys don’t duplicate then you are not resolving a sorting problem per se. It’s just a degenerate case of the problem which is obviously easy to resolve.

I switched to beancount after trying several other things (mint, spreadsheets, gnucash), and I like it quite a bit. It's choice to be very strict about things held at cost (like units of stock) is a great differentiation.

It's VERY hard to accidentally miss capital gains, or get cost basis wrong on something, or have something not balance. Much harder than even ledger-cli, let alone the other alternatives. It feels at times like working with a static type system versus a dynamic type system.

And the burden associated with this is not anything more than other tools. Importers have been great. I have 68 asset subaccounts between my spouse and I (if you do double-entry accounting you'll know this isn't actually that many), and I spend about 1-2 hours a month balancing the books, doing reporting, etc.

Finally, it's quite easy to get your transactions into a pandas datatable or similar, allowing you to utilize your programming/datascience skills to do things that just aren't available in other tools. Mint offers nothing here, spreadsheets can do some of it (but the downsides of accuracy), and gnucash requires learning some niche scheme stuff; it feels very "tacked on".
It's the leading zero that throws me off and makes me look for a day-of-month or month number in a string that is too short to have one and a leading zero. ISO 8601 dates are fine.
Arcades hold a large portion of my childhood memories. It was the place where I made friends from outside my social circle of school and neighborhood. I suppose in some ways it was an afternoon night club for kids.

I have no idea where if anywhere kids today can find the same connections outside of parent subsidized sports and art programs. (Which really do not have the autonomy and real world social interactions arcades provided me.)

I could hardly wait for my paper route money to come in so that I could meet up with my friends spend it at the arcade!

Possible shopping centers have provide a similar experience but I feel the writing is on the wall and it does not bode well for these either.

I worry that pseudo friendships such as those found online or soon in the Metaverse being the only option for our youth, will have long lasting negative consequences on our society which appears to be in decline already.

There are dozens of hash map implementations for C++, and while they all have O(1) asymptotic complexity, the runtime performance can be vastly different depending on the implementation choices. The design space of a hash based data structure is immense, but std::unordered_map is generally always avoided unless your main goal is either ease-of-use or beginner-friendliness or you simply don't care about performance. But if any of these is true for your context, then C++ is probably not the right tool for the job anyway.

>how is the protocol supposed to know what address is right/wrong?

It's the "right" address for certain transactions--like turning ETH into WETH--but the "wrong" address for other transactions, which makes the whole thing a garbage design. You can say "that's just the way Ethereum/crypto/smart contracts work" all day, but it doesn't matter.

Most people don't care why the design is bad, they just care that it is bad, and that there are better theoretical (or real) alternatives to this tech.
Huh. I thought the C in 700C indicated that the tire was a clincher as opposed to tubular but that seems to be wrong.

You tool says:

> Reifenhöhe C: ca. 39 mm (French designation)

but it says that for 700x19C as well as for 700x40C which seems odd?

The wikipedia page for Bicycle wheel [1] says:

> The ISO 5775-2 standard defines designations for bicycle rims. It distinguishes between 1. Straight-side (SS) rims 2. Crochet-type (C) rims (...)

and also

> Road wheels may be designed for tubular or clincher tires, commonly referred to as "700C" tires.

but it doesn't explain the B in 650B.

Sheldon Brown [2] says (emphasis added)

> A second number or letter code would indicate the *width* of the tire. (26 x 1.75, 27 x 1 1/4...650B, 700C...)

The wikipedia page does mention both 650B and 650C and that the ISO diameter differs by a few mm. So if I understand right, these codes (650B and 700C) specify the full-wheel diameter (650/700) and the letter indicates how much of that diameter the tire needs to make up, i.e. a 650B rim is slightly smaller (571mm) than a 650C (584mm) and the tire needs to make up that differencxe to get to 650?

[EDITED] 700C rims are ISO diameter 622mm, which matches with 2x 39mm tire width: 622 + 78 = 700mm. So I guess the intended tire height at time of standard-invention was 39mm?

But in practice a 700x19C rim-tire combo will be smaller in diameter than a 700x40C so I guess they're not fully "700C" standard compliant?

I live in the Seattle metro(Tacoma) and can walk to a 900 acre old growth forest with 20 miles of trails, or quickly drive to several beaches and watch for whales, seals, etc. Seattle and Portland, and likely many places on the West Coast have similar amenities- not to mention being surrounded by multiple national forests and national parks. I’m curious if the cities you abandoned work back east or European?

Of course you can. There's a good amount of homebrew out there for various retro systems and a good chunk of those will sell you the ROM to download or even offer a physical cart. If you drive enough hype you can even make money porting it to newer platforms, e.g Pier Solar which was originally a homebrew Sega Genesis game but now has ports to several modernish platforms like PS3, PS4 and Steam.

We've also seen "new" retro systems like the Playdate.

You mean buy and sell goods and services? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think basically anyone uses ETH for this (compared to BTC and BCH where at least some merchants exists). If you want to buy and sell tokens in a decentralized fashion, then you'll have to deal with smart contracts.
For many people (myself included), the ease of writing python jumpstarted my journey to eventually learning everything else you mentioned gradually.

Sadly in Germany arcades are illegal, never seen one for myself and am close to 40 years old.

Victim of COVID for sure, but I wonder if they were also a victim of the indoor smoking ban enacted in 2020. Japanese arcades were full of smokers when I was there. The smoking ban might well end up being the most significant legacy of the cursed Olympics.

>That's why you see companies fall apart when the founders leave. They're replaced by people who prioritize profit for the company and wealth for themselves rather than product quality so the company ends up rudderless.

Which ironically fucks over profit anyways, just about every time. I think it's more of a personal greed thing combined with incompetence, on top of perverse incentives that come with being a publicly traded company.

The quarterly profit model all but ensures a societal-scale myopia in the end.

I've heard quite a few people complain about GP5000TLs, but that's what I've been using for a while (on Prime carbon wheels) and haven't had too much trouble with them. With tubeless tyres, you really have to make use of the inner rim well (i.e. the middle bit) to give you the crucial extra mm or so. At least with tubeless tyres you can use tyre levers to get the last bit on and not worry about puncturing a tube. Schwalbe Ones are easier to fit in my experience, but they seem to have the durability of butterfly wings and even worse, they can get slippery in the wet when they're at high pressure (e.g. over 70psi).

I've seen videos of people easily fitting tyres using just their thumbs, but I refuse to believe that's possible.
The article says

Except you add the cream after beating the eggs and flour in the original recipe.

Today's waffle and some pancake batter recipes will call for beating the eggs until light and fluffy, which takes a few minutes in a mixer and could take 15 minutes by hand. Then you typically fold or mix the flour and dairy (milk, cream, or buttermilk) into the eggs, alternating small amounts of each. Then add the clarified butter. That's how I would adapt the recipe to the use of a mixer.

Also, I would make sure to use salted butter in this recipe or add a small amount of salt.

The analogy is apt since it was an example of the idea that some people, thankfully, are aware that some services should not have their availability based on ability to pay at the point of usage. In the U.S. system denials of care by insurance companies are not done so another person can get said care. They are done to increase profit margins and profiting from denying someone care is immoral.

Needs a note re tubeless setup, esp for mountain bikes. Fewer punctures, easier to repair in the field. Tubeless-ready tires should also have a note on the sidewall.

‘Too sick to rest’: How long Covid helped one doctor learn to slow down
Your math works out! :-) The Lincoln county property tax rate is 1.80% (https://smartasset.com/taxes/kansas-property-tax-calculator)... the property tax on a $200,000 property would therefore be $3600/year. Kansas income taxes on $150,000 would be $8,093 (https://www.bankrate.com/taxes/kansas-state-taxes/).

White county, TN, has a property tax rate of .52% (https://smartasset.com/taxes/tennessee-property-tax-calculat...): $1040/year, and Tennessee doesn't have an income tax.

Property in both is pretty comparable (https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-search/Lincoln-Co..., https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-search/Sparta_TN/...), 1,500 to 2,000 sq ft. Maybe a bit of an edge in Kansas.

Sales tax in Lincoln county are 2 percentage points lower, but it is at least a hundred miles to a bigger city.

Kansas kinda sucks.
This idea would be antithetical to decentralization of cryptocurrency, but I think that since this issue is a platform level problem (e.g. future contracts can also introduce this) what is needed is a set of mediators/arbitrators (we can call them "judges" that hear these cases and have a technical mechanism to correct them without a fork.

In order to select these judges, the community can elect them directly or elect a board or leaders to select them indirectly.

Of course these corrections would require gas, so they may need to add a small additional gas charge to transactions to fund this group and perhaps also their salaries. We can call this extra gas a "tax".

In summary: Stand up an entire government around ETH in order to ensure the benefit of judges and humans can override code. Once you do this though, you have a central ruling authority with an in-code constitution, but parts that take place in a human judgement realm.

I set this up partially in jest of blockchain currencies in general, but I do actually say this seriously. I think that purists of decentralized code only control will hold back any possible benefits that cryptocurrency could bring. The situation above still has benefits from a monetary fiat system run by a nation state, though I think severely less than what the cryptocurrency ideal is. Some include:

- There is no nation state attached to this centralized ruling body and itself can be decentralized and beholden to no nation

- All transactions and reasons of the body can still be public and on open API's for people to integrate and monitor with modern tech

- The loose "untraceable" or general "freedom" arguments that come with a blockchain would still hold so long as the community with these tenants maintains control of the board / judges / leaders.

No. We are talking about modern trains here.

The wind friction is lowered in high-speed trains by making a flush body without interruption - and not by the connection itself. But this is besides the point.

Each car has its engines and brakes, there is no significant push/pull force on the connections and there is no bigger engine somewhere.

In the context of the current conversation the autonomous cars are electric and each car has its engines.
