There is a ton of well researched psychology work on self deception, confirmation bias, it goes on and on.

Asking about the things that the OP was mentioning are deep psychological traps. Perhaps the OP has deep self awareness, but that does not apply to the general candidate or human.

It seems like the linked regulation is not yet implemented. Further, your response to a question about a guarantee is regulation and reports? How does anyone know the reports of another central bank are true? When a central bank fakes numbers, what are the consequences, if any, and who adjudicates them?

Basel III was agreed upon by the members of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in November 2010, and was scheduled to be introduced from 2013 until 2015; however, implementation was extended repeatedly to 1 January 2022 and then again until 1 January 2023, in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.
I am skeptical because of how small the sample size is. This could well be a case of, a bunch of "spy architecture" astronauts in the KGB come up with this brainy scheme, a bunch of years go by, they find one place where it worked, and go "A ha! Our thing works!"

"Learning to draw is much more about learning to see than making marks."

This was the most helpful thing I learned from _Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain_. That book alone took me from "poorly drawn stick figures" to "recognizable sketches of people and simple objects". It's been a while since I've exercised any of this, but it's on my list to re-learn One Of These Days™.
If there’s 23 times more noise, but the opinions are uncorrelated, that’s where the random forest approach comes into its own for a decision tree based on classification or regression. Like time series forecasting, and you can choose the weights based on how well the agencies performed in similar situations in the past.

Get a stylus for your phone - if you don't have a phone that supports pressure, don't worry, just get the best capacitive stylus brands(I use Meko mesh tips). The learning goal here does not involve quality media.

Then use your downtime to trace photos. When you feel more ambitious, hide the original and draw from recollection, or try to modify elements - say, adjust proportions or give figures different clothing or merge multiple photos into one image. Aim to simplify your traces. Try using different brushes and drawing programs. Trace in different ways, e.g. by looking for the lighting values rather than contours, or by trying to reveal underlying forms by seeing "behind" the object with cross-sectional lines.

This is a relaxing way to approach drawing. It gives you a pleasing result immediately and lets you study subjects of your choosing. You are starting from a point of maximal accuracy. You don't have to run out and get a "setup", because everyone has their phone with them anyway and there are plenty of good apps. It lets you experiment and build up mileage across a variety of skills. You can adjust the difficulty as you like by trying relatively more or less difficult things.

When you feel ready to explore the technical aspects further, try Drawabox. You don't have to do the full course, just trying every exercise in Lesson 1 once is a good study on its own. Drawabox, being so completely focused on technical skills, is known as a morale-crusher and one of its admonishments is to use a "50% rule" where you are spending half of your art time on things other than the exercises so that you don't burn out from hours and hours of drawing abstract shapes. That's why you should figure out the fun parts first.

Nothing I said cast arriving at the finish line as following in the exact footsteps as the predecessors to get there.

Obviously the definition of and means of achieving "modern living" is constantly evolving.

Our most recent example would arguably be China, and CO2-free automobile-free utopia it very much is not.

It will be interesting to see what form India arriving in the first world will take. I'm hoping for solar panels on every home and skipping a coal-fueled power grid much like the cell network you mention, as it does appear to be the obvious wireless equivalent for power. I don't think that alone is sufficient though.

Everything is "possibly wrong", what a pointless thing to say. What's probable?
I saw a talk from a company called Precient Technologies which uses microbes to remediate heavy metal from ore extraction process wastewater (e.g. the microbes are genetically engineered to “eat” and concentrate a particular target metal). What they have works really well for heavy metals right now and they floated they idea that their tech could be modified to work on lithium.

It appears that many things that I thought were normal to put into an html page are not.

Those are normal things, but some companies like to deviate, often just to be different. For example, Google uses a Unicode lightning bolt as its DOCTYPE for Amp pages.

However, saving 100 bytes on a page load can end up being actual money saved when you shove out as many pages as Twitter does in a month.

I guess bannon has a pretty subversive aim but I don't see how Tucker Carlson, no matter how controversial he is, is subversive when he mostly supports traditional power structures. He's basically pushing a bog standard anti war populist narrative,which he has done consistently in the past 4 years regardless of it involved russia.

What I'm essentially saying is that he doesn't really fit into the "demoralize/destabilize/subvert/normalize" framework. But that's not to say he doesn't fit very well in others ;)

I don't disagree with the ecosystem argument, nor the argument that poorly thought out architecture is a big cause, as well. I don't think having a GC de facto makes you more productive and that's worth arguing about itself.

My point was that having the ability to perform "fearless refactoring" to improve architecture and adapt to changing needs of the software needs ruthless type system support to catch the non-obvious areas that you just broke and make sure that API contracts are still correct and to make sure you're not deserializing random stuff into `interface{}` or worse, `Any`, `Value` or `void *`.
Complying means losing their sovereignty to a foreign autocrat who literally has a list of people he intends to kill.

tl;dr, what makes electronic USD "real" is a system of consensus like bitcoin, except it's a node of 1 (the US Fed) with a handful of spokes (banks with Fed accounts) for scaling off that base node.
Previous process nodes are alternatives, but it takes months to years to redesign and manufacture devices using available parts. What if the new car supply (because cars have a crazy number of processors in them) suddenly dropped to 5% of current rates? What if you weren't able to purchase a new computer (or any parts - DRAM, GPUs, motherboards) for five years? What about appliances - if your microwave breaks, and you can only buy a used one for 4x the new price, what do you do?
Is there any clear historical evidence that these specific phases were ever successfully executed? My impression is that mid-century soviet intellectualism loved to put together these kind of grand theories of social engineering.

I have Russian-speaking Ukrainian friends. They have told me that there is no such pomgrom in Ukraine against them or people like them. They have told me multiple times that Russian friends of theirs keep telling them that they must be scared and they tell them that they are wrong. This is Russian propaganda that you are repeating, and has no base in truth.
So there is no Munroe doctrine in place? Cuba has the right to station nuclear weapons? The hypocrisy of any great power is mind boggling and it’s sad to see individuals buy into that.
I don't. I was just clarifying what the GP meant.
You're right that it does have an effect, however if you look at other areas with a higher property tax, houses are still extremely expensive in desirable areas. It doesn't have as big of an effect as you'd think and it severely penalizes the middle class who are forced to relocate so that the ultra wealthy can take their place.

>The local government will get the money in a different way

This is a feature IMO, the government can get that tax revenue but in a more fair way e.g. income taxes that are skewed higher towards the ultra wealthy rather than just kicking people out of their homes, where they probably do want to live.

So if you use this as a name-badge with no batteries, the buttons and ports on the rear are very exposed; I wonder if there would be long term consequences of that? Might need to use e.g. glue-gun glue to protect them.

Also, the branding is a lot. If it is a toy then it isn't important, if you were serious about a name badge a little bit unprofessional looking. Particularly the bomb/weapon on the rear with a bunch of exposed circuit board, I'm sure going through TSA with this will be a hoot.

Just comes back to: Is this actually meant to be used as a name badge? Fun rainy afternoon toy though.

> Is it say possible to run a production quality server that can handle hundreds of thousands of concurrent users on digital ocean lets say?

Absolutely. I used to work as an SRE on Mozilla's WebPush infrastructure. Every running Firefox in the world establishes a connection to it; that means it peaks at tens of millions of concurrent connections every day. We could easily handle hundreds of thousands of connections on a couple CPU cores and gigs of RAM.

Although most connections were usually idle, we also regularly pushed messages to every connected client (e.g. when a collection in our remote settings service was updated).

What if there were no new cars, TVs, or phones made for five years? That would cause rioting - and that's pretty close to what scenario we would actually have, because it would take years to design and manufacture these very complex devices without any parts at all from TSMC.
This is an easy mistake to make, but actix-web isn't actix, it's a web framework that uses actix. And while actix once had a controversial reputation regarding unsafety, the project has reversed its stance in the years since that quote was relevant and now appears to treat soundness violations with seriousness.

That's fine but don't make it seem like there is no choice, there is plenty of evidence of people in Russia protesting and they have made a different choice than you.

And "current operation" is distancing language. It's an invasion or a war, not an operation.

It may have nothing to do with the protocol. It can mean that everything Grammarly receives, no matter how transmitted, is unencrypted, in the same sense that this comment I sent to HN is. Of course this makes sense, but I think the difference is in the expectation of what is and isn't sent.

This article misses the way I use it, which is much safer. I am security minded but also a terrible writer.

I have Grammarly as a browser extension that is OFF BY DEFAULT, except, when I am writing on Medium, and a few times when I click to enable it temporarily.

Problem solved! I feel this article is not serious about a the "What you can do about it". I am fairly confident I have sensitive information controlled, yet I do get the very real benefits when I write a blog post.

I also copy and paste markdown into the standalone web app occasionally because it can correct markdown without getting tripped up by syntax! I am very happy with the quality of grammarly corrections and I do think it is possible to use it safely, just not with its default settings.
My guesswork based on the fact my URLs my crawler became aware of so many GitHub URLs I had to add special logic to exclude URLs that look like commit hashes:

GitHub is absurdly large in terms of the number of documents since there's ostensibly a "document" per file and commit, it's likely the crawling budget Google affords GitHub simply runs out before they've crawled it all unless they implement special logic to prioritize issues and about-pages.
Can someone enlighten me how this paves the way to AGI? At the surface this looks like a rather mundane optimization problem.
That's what got Poland its freedom. The one thing any dictator really fears is a mass uprising.
The invasion of Ukraine is anything but rational. There's simply no way that ends well for Russia without some enormous doses of wishful thinking and fairy dust. The majority of people of Ukraine won't accept a Russian installed puppet government, and would receive help from abroad, so how exactly does Putin intend on ruling by force a country with 40 million citizens most of whom don't want him to?

If there isn't peace in Ukraine soon and/or if Taiwan is invaded, it's WWIII and a rate hike won't matter and frankly the depreciation would be so rapid that it would be quickly irrelevant going forward. There would be rationing and a centrally planned economy, like in the previous world wars. Hopefully there are speedy and peaceful resolutions to this so that the worst of our problems is inflation.

The government's debt problems are mostly "to itself" -- the commitments to give free drugs and unlimited surgery for old people. Under war conditions obviously those commitments will be defaulted on. But then there comes a much larger and worse commitment to enormous war expenditures, and a far smaller private economy. A couple weeks ago it'd be nuts to say all this stuff but obviously things have changed now.

You said, in response to ThakesX, who was complaining about people interpreting his attitude as a nationalist one:

What "sentiment" are you referring to, that you don't believe you should stop interpreting as right-wing/nationalist.
> regardless of whether the underlying cause is good or bad.

Yeah, that’s the real issue. If we can find a way to be neighborly (literally and figuratively) with those who have opinions (not actions) we abhor we might get somewhere.

But, all somebody has to do is say some opinion threatens their life and that plan is out the window.

If you want to learn about propaganda and indoctrination then look no further than Edward Bernays and other PR pioneers. People like him came up with a blueprint to manage liberal democracies because nominal freedom requires (according to him) the management of thought in order to make people make the right choices (we are all free to pick between Pepsi and Coke).

Propaganda and indoctrination makes less sense in a totalitarian society. It’s in the name: a totalitarian society needs no consent or illusion of choice because the choices have been made for you. The same applies to merely authoritarian societies to a lesser degree.

Putin had his whole narrative of the Russian Empire becoming a thing again. So that was definitely meant to motivate the average Russian. But on the other hand it is not crucial that Russians buy it; Russians were directly told that people who protest the invasion will get arrested.

There is too much fascination with the Orwellian “thought crime” type of propaganda and indoctrination. Try to have a more pscyhoanalytical approach to it. Like Bernays.
Trotting out an expert is far better than just random comments from uninformed people.
