> There seems to be no benefit in using any tax advantaged accounts if, say for instance, you wanted to retire at 35.

Only if you don’t plan on living past 59. You still need to save for your post 59 life even if you begin retirement at 35. With a 401k, you still have something for later, if you can retire at 35, it isn’t wise to start tapping all your saved resources early.

This is cute but it refuses to actually think about the problem of keyboard layout design. Take the reductio the other way and you end up adding keys to create a keyboard with a key for “the” and one for “and”, “or”, “but”, “of”... The author is just saying they want the QWERTY keyboard exactly as it is without actually thinking how this layout got there in the first place.

The Caps Lock key makes no sense in the context of a computer keyboard. Back in the days of typewriters when everything was a single monospaced font, typing in all caps was the only way to make something bold (there weren’t italics, bold, font sizes or different fonts). Having a convenient way to hold down the shift key was nice in this context. In the context of a computer keyboard that has multiple fonts, sizes and weights, it is a dumb key. Larry Tesler’s dictum “no modes” is immediately applicable. Steve Jobs tried to get rid of the caps lock key twice (once at Apple and once at Next). Google’s pixel books have replaced it with a search shortcut, which is not that useful but much better than having a key whose primary function is to mess up password entry and shout online without any extra effort for shouting. On a Mac keyboard there are a few common substitutions for caps lock that you can use. Any of these substitutions are preferable (I have it as Option for tab navigation but any of the other main hot keys make a better use of keyboard real estate).
If I'm reading this correctly:

- After a long period of getting cheaper in real terms, nails have started to get more expensive (you get less nail for your money in 2022 than you did in 1992).

- The main driver of this cost increase is more expensive labor and services, essentially human time is becoming more expensive to purchase.

- This rise is cost is unlikely to be felt by the average consumer because we have both on an individual level and as a nation have gotten wealthier so that increased cost is coming out of a larger pool of money.

Is that a fair summary of the current state of things?
What reasons made the FTX ad a big mistake?
It should work today. If we migrate to ILP64 data model then we can restore many of those elegant behaviors, because it makes C so easy, almost like a scripting language. As far as I can tell, the original motivations for the LP64 data model which causes int and int* to be different widths, was because SCO wanted it that way. They never published the measurements that led them to this conclusion. Are you willing to sacrifice language simplicity based on the word of the people who are famous for suing Linux users?
What was wrong with the FTX ad?
IMO the problem here is that even if your flash drive presents a "dumb flash" API to the OS, there can still be caching and other magic that happens underneath. You could still be in a situation where you write a block to the drive, but the drive only writes that to local RAM cache so that it can give you very fast burst write speeds. Then, if you try to read the same block, it could read that block from its local cache. The OS would assume that the block has been successfully written, but if the power goes out, you're still out of luck.

You're asking for exactness as if the interpretation of a submission is a mathematical formula. It isn't. Readers with flagging power are going to look at your submission and make subjective, biased, inductive calls about whether to flag, upvote, downvote, comment, and/or ignore.

I used to use an Oura ring but the accuracy is actually not so great (Potentially going to get better with new algorithm coming out) and switched to a fitbit charge 5. App is pretty slick and really easy to see your sleep data, also quite a small wearable.

There's a youtuber who compares all wearables for accuracy with actual sleep measuring equipment and Fitbit charge 5 is (surprisngly) the most accurate. Here's a link to his graph of all devices charted on accuracy: https://youtu.be/6oNGpQZakxU?t=237
> they collect everything through their desktop environment

There're many relevant questions during the install. If one actually uses the OS installation wizard GUI instead of skipping it with "next" buttons, Microsoft won't be collecting much.

Another thing, they don't have to because their business model is honest. They're building software, users are paying for that. Microsoft ain't an advertisement company, they have little motivation to track people.

I did clean installation of Windows 10 last week (recycled an old laptop after migrating to a new one), the email was optional.
Suppose O’Connor’s decision is reversed and we’re back to the Story interpretation. If Congress were to establish a religion they would have to pick one, even if the choices were limited to Christian sects. That would violate the Establishment clause.

If Congress decides that atheism isn’t protected and tries to “prohibit the free exercise” of a non-religion that has no exercises (rituals, gatherings, holy books), what would they prohibit? Congress can’t force people to choose a religion because that would run into problems with other provisions of the First Amendment.

In practical terms the notions of freedom of thought and speech and worship are so ingrained in American culture any proposal to persecute atheists would get nowhere, and would prove impossible to enforce.

Personally I strongly recommend replacing caps lock with control on a Mac keyboard for better tabbed browsing shortcuts. The hot keys for move one tab left/right are Tab + Control and Tab + Control + Shift.
If you replace caps lock with control then all these keys form a nice large column of keys at the far left end of the keyboard.

> What I do not understand how could an enterprise be so incompetent not to attract any clients in 6 months?

Most likely in my opinion: they priced themselves out of the market by raising the rates quoted to potential clients in an attempt to cover the ballooning overhead. It wouldn't do to actually land contracts and still go out of business, now would it?

Another possibility: They responded to RFPs with proposals that drastically expanded the scope of what was requested (same motivation as above).

There are ways to push clients a bit out of their comfort zone and still get their business, but if what was asked for is a new logo and you respond with a proposal for a global corporate identity system and advertising campaign, you might not get very far.

At my work we use GitHub to manage all of our code repositories and GitHub Actions for CI/CD. GitHub is already familiar to a large number of developers and makes it easier for them to get started. My team mostly builds webapps, so we have also leveraged VS Code dev containers. This allows all team members to be coding in the same containerized dev environment in Docker with the same setup. GitHub and VS Code containers have dramatically helped reduce our onboarding time.

It absolutely is possible for a value to decrease, and that does not require reads or writes to not be atomic.

Picture Thread A reading the value of X=0, then the Python scheduler preempts the thread. Then Thread B fetches and increments X three times. X is now 3. Thread A then runs again, and increments the value of X it had read previously, (0+1), then writes 1 to X.

The memory location just went: 0,1,2,3,1

Regular people in dictatorships aren't hiding money in cryptocurrency, because they don't have money to stash away, usually. The rich in those societies may be, and they're likely rich through being affiliated with the dictator.

You aren't helping liberate the poor and desperate. You're helping oligarchs hide their money from domestic or international seizure after the dictator falls, and a new government steps in.

I don't think this is a case of "some units are lemons"- from what I can see this is a design flaw of some sort. I've been buying Latitudes for personal use now for MANY years and this is the first "annoys me every day and can't be fixed (or they refuse to fix it)" issue I've had.

You can blame safety regulations for that. Vape mods are just about the only consumer devices that get away with using raw Li-ion cells. The rest use cartridges or glued-in lipo.

It’s just not economical to make battery cartridges for less than $30 each. You also can’t use the same cartridge design as e.g. a power tool manufacturer since all those designs are patented and they’ll sue you if you make something interchangeable.

I've been exclusively using Markdown for all docs for several years which I've found to be the most productive format for writing docs. My preferred setup now being to use VS Code with a browser running a local instance of
https://vitepress.vuejs.org which instantly live reloads content on each save and renders our custom server components exactly as it looks when published.

Its biggest benefit is its extensibility which lets you embed interactive Vue Components directly in the docs, which we've made liberal usage of in our latest product release with tabbed components & online project creator embedded directly in the release notes, e.g:

https://docs.servicestack.net/releases/v6#todos-mvc

A lighter weight extensibility option is to extend it [1] with custom block-level custom containers using markdown-it-container [2] which lets you create custom markup like this:

::: nuget
`<PackageReference Include="ServiceStack.OrmLite.PostgreSQL" Version="6.*" />`
:::

::: sh
x mix postgres
:::

Which gets rendered into custom copy widgets as seen in:

https://docs.servicestack.net/ormlite/installation

Markdown all text things!

Basically if it needs to capture text content, I'll look for the Markdown version if it exists, which extends into my preferred TODO App: https://notable.app - a beautiful little App that manages a static directory of *.md files. My first TODOs replacement of using notepad.exe that's stuck.

I don't really understand what the scam was here. I expected this to be the standard kind of fake job scam, where you're asked to front money for the purchasing of equipment or legal bills, or where you're asked to send copies of your identification documents and all that...but what was the point here?

None of the people hired were asked to pay money upfront, and were told they would start getting paid after the six months probation period (at which, presumably the guy in charge expected to have some clients).

The only thing shady I see being done here is all of the fake co-founders and staff...which I honestly don't understand the reason for, but where actually is the scam?

Yes, the thing about a plantation was that because the slaves were already purchased and their labor could be used for agriculture only part of the time, if you needed something, having a slave make it made a lot of economic sense. A lot of the large plantations had nearly everything made by hand, by a slave or group of slaves.

And this impeded trade, manufacture and automation.
If I lived in Taiwan, I’d be thinking of an exit strategy. You’re kidding youself if you don’t think China is watching the lack of pushback against Russia here. After the botched Afghanistan withdrawal and the handling of this crisis, the US no longer appears to be as dominant as it was previously.
I believe many highly successful products would contradict this claim.
That is essentially how Allen Downey approaches statistical education: the analytical solutions came first because we lacked the computational power. Now that we have cheap computation, we should exploit that to develop better intuition. His Bayesian book[0] is available as Jupyter notebooks.

That's a great start but sadly most of those seed oils can still find a way into your body through through much of the food people eat. It's insane how much cotton seed, canola, rapeseed, corn, sunflower, Safflower, soy, rice bran oils are found in all processed and prepared food like breads, sauces, salad dressings, snack foods, and basically any every other packaged or processed food. Unless you are eating extremely clean, you're ingesting seed oils. Most pork and chicken that is bought is raised on seed oils but from what I understand ruminant animals are able to filter it out through their urine. One has to be extremely diligent in their food choices to eliminate seed oils from their diet and it takes years to get it out of your body. Ray Peat has some interesting stuff and has basically preaching long before it was popular to get PUFA's out of your diet. If you eat out, all restaurants and fast food is either cooked in it or it's in the food they are serving.

Check your pantry and read the ingredients on everything. I basically use Costco Organic EVOO and the big tub of Coconut oil you can buy there for everything and never go out to eat anymore for at least the last 4-5 years. My diet is so simple that I lost 100 pounds and kept it off just eating clean and doing some fasting.
