> But it’s a few thousand dollars if that (as low as under $1,000) which is reachable to all but destitute families.

I live in Arlington, so not Fairfax, but in a neighborhood that borders Fairfax (and not really that far away from TJ either). The median household income for our census tract was about a 3rd of the county's average, ~$40k vs ~$120k when I looked into it a few years back. Which is also indicative of the Fairfax areas around me. It's not like America has much in the way of generic social support to make it easier for folks like that to spend a couple thousand on some extra tutoring, plus the cost here is higher because there are so many affluent folks to drive up the price of a tutor. This also isn't a small number of people, it's a really dense area down here relative to other parts of Northern Virginia (including parts with substantially better transit access and more walkable communities).

Northern Virginia has some pretty unique pockets, my zip code is one of the most diverse in the entire country[0], and a bit south of me in Fairfax is the only other one Virginia has in the top 100, but also quite a bit of poverty in those same unique areas. Idk, I just wouldn't paint with such a broad brush, when I know very few folks on my block with kids could just spend a few thousand on extra tutoring.

It would be interesting to compare the video and the photo to a similarly-sized excerpt of her writing.
While this is only a link to the manufacturer, Matias has created a clone of the ALPS mechanical keyboard switches used in some of the 1990's ADB keyboards made by Apple.

If you want to build your own keyboard, you can buy switches (200-packs for $50), different keycap sets and accessories such as stabilizers. This might be an interesting alternative to Cherry (or Cherry clone) switches. But take care, the keycaps are not compatible between Alps/Matias and Cherry switches.

I just have trouble believing that I could pull that off as a private low-end investor. There shouldn't be any financial opportunities waiting for somebody like me at a market involving much more experienced folks plus HFT companies, banks etc. But I agree, it's and interesting idea. Being a news addict the idea of leveraging this into informed decisions sounds great. But I guess it's not for me.

Don't argue with upper caste muslims.

I am a big admirer of Ali Anwar, founder of Pasmanda Muslim Mahaz. The hindu-muslim binary of the Indian poltics is the biggest issue lower caste muslims are facing today. Every issue is about Hindu and Muslim or Upper and Lower caste Hindus but None talks about the plight of the Dalit and Pasmanda lower caste Muslims.

I know I will get downvoted by upper caste ashrafs and sayeed muslims but this it the trusth. Cast matters, even if you are a muslim in India.

Lower caste pasmanda Muslims are not even allowed to bury their dead bodies with those of upper caste pure blood Muslims, who claim to be descendants of the prophet Mohammed.

Ali Anwar despite being a Muslim was in the JD(U)-BJP alliance in Bihar. BJP is a Hindu-nationalist party that also bought some progressive changes in the Muslim community. I don't like BJP but sometimes even the devil does the right thing, banning triple-talaq was one of such positive things done to uplift oppressed Muslim women.

This is not quite correct... For motion picture film, yes, anything older than the 70mm film you're talking about tends to be low-resolution because of the physical constraints of moving a foot or more of film through a camera each second. However, still photos from that era were much better - the limitations of film stocks were lighting, and with enough light to gather, a large format photo could be extremely sharp and high-resolution (if that was the priority). It sounds like this is referring to a formal portrait setting, with potentially very bright studio lighting and high quality film, so it could easily be sharper than all but very recent digital cameras (as large-format film still is).
This has a real chance to be a successful mobile game, if I were you I may start thinking about an app. Every project has to stop somewhere, though, so leaving it as a fun little game in the browser would be fine too!
The Muse 2 headset has ear and forehead sensors. I'm not too up on EEG, but I'd believed the ear sensors were just for grounding/baselining what's read from the forehead.

Blink detection at least is pretty robust when I've played with it.

I highly doubt you've ever looked at it then. javac more or less intentionally doesn't do any optimizations, it leaves it all for the job of the JIT at runtime. It doesn't do either class-local optimizations nor whole-program / LTO-equivalent optimizations. Things like proguard offer both, and hence why they can so easily claim things like +20% performance. There's a lot of low-hanging fruit in javac's output, at the cost of needing a map file to reconstruct source mappings of course (although Java could of course integrate this into the class files if it wanted, it would just rather invest more or less exclusively in the JIT & GC).

Here for example: https://godbolt.org/z/4nzPY3h57 javac doesn't even bother to resolve that static field at compile time, which wouldn't even have observable side effects. Nope, just blindly emits a static initializer to invoke square(2) at runtime.

Or for a real fun one, enums: https://godbolt.org/z/xjbYvc8dx

Now some of that is necessary to handle all the stuff other classes could do with the enum, but some of it is just unnecessary. Like building the values array, which invokevirtuals all the ordinals of all the enum values. Ordinals the compiler already knew, since it's literally in the same .class file further up (and these are always in the same .class file, they are in lock-step, so there's again no observable difference if the values array was defined with constants instead of invoking ordinals on each field).

And then the trivial switch statement there isn't optimized at all, either, which again wouldn't be observable (compare against what eg. gcc would produce: https://godbolt.org/z/414rGjbE1 )

Further note that these examples are both static initializers, which means the JIT never "fixes" these (and thus instead perpetually contribute to slow startup). So if javac was going to bother with any attempt to optimize at all, you'd think it'd be here.
It seems to be an uncanny valley of sorts. I experienced quite a similar feeling of revulsion -- not because the author was so different from me but rather the opposite. You want to see her pull away but instead you see a slow motion train-wreck, and the triumph of the chthonic depths of the subconscious over the generally relieving, agency imbuing aspects of rationality.

To read something like this as a human being (if you can at all relate) is thoroughly rattling. How close are any of us to sinking into such "base" forms of self-flagellation? Base and yet thoroughly universal. It is very uncomfortable, especially if you are no longer in such a state but vividly remember being in the throes of it. I won't lie, it almost resembles the way others describe having recovered from drug addiction.
Normally I think those are called "electronic games", as were the earlier games that just used LEDs (like the famous Mattel "Electronic Football" from the 1970s that had you control an LED representing an American football quarterback trying to get touchdowns without being tackled by opponents, also LEDs). Video games are electronic games, but not all electronic games are video games.
I believe the Librem 5 never was "Googled" or "Appled". PinePhone too, but that doesn't seem ready for regular users yet.

There are reports of Russian forces running out of fuel and food. It sounds like with the thaw if Ukraine's forces focus on shutting down major roads then the current "siege warfare" approach by Russia may backfire badly. If their supply lines are easily cut off, they siege themselves.
The Russian military seems to be extremely unmotivated, and rightly so. This is Putin's war. Nobody else wanted it. There is evidence that lower ranks in the Russian military don't want to kill their neighbors who mostly speak the same language. Morale is very low, as many cases of abandoned vehicles and surrender illustrate. Unfortunately, the longer a war goes on, the more both sides harden and the more brutal the war becomes.

I wonder if it wouldn't help for the West to guarantee political asylum for Russian deserters, maybe even with a new identity for them. But I don't know if this is practically achievable, at least not without extensive vetting and not as long as they are PoWs. Has this ever been attempted?
What’s more important to get a kid, a new iPhone or some education?

Americans mostly don’t do after school reinforcement education because it’s not in our culture —unlike Asian cultures where buxibans are pretty much the rule. People will putt around in very old cars which need replacement in order to afford being able to send their kids to after school classes.

We’d rather get new sneakers, iPhones or whatever else peer pressure tells us to do.

Our pop culture reinforces the “be a dope” stereotype as cool and the studious kids as “nerdy”. That’s all you need to know.
some great books you're mentioning here, I'd love to see your recommendations in an app like this, perhaps we'd need to move away from an algorithmic recommendation system, but rather influencers based on 'moods'? There is a radio station that works like this NTS, they even claim "not curated by algorithms", but still scalable and solid music. I love this concept.

> i wouldn't hold it against the TV people who built this legend without waiting for full confirmation or denial - again you need to understand there they can get carried away and why.

I think it’s entirely reasonable to hold journalists to some standards that include “not making shit up and then reporting on it”.

I can be (and am) simultaneously sympathetic to their side but not to their journalistic actions in this case.
> However, if AWS S3 goes down, your IPFS server goes down too. Unless the data has been cached somewhere, your IPFS CID links are no longer accessible. This can result in an NFT "rug pull".

Can't you just re-pin whatever files that were lost? Surely you'd keep a copy of anything that was actually important, even if just offline on a hard drive.
It's pretty simple. A lot of kids don't have an opportunity to put in the time and effort. Some of them still do well despite this, and that shows they have great potential if given the opportunity.

Taking life challenges and starting points into account is more of a meritocracy, because you are accounting for the difficulty they had to get to where they are.

For example, say you have two kids with the same high SAT score. One kid has been given every chance to succeed - test prep, rich parents, best schools money can buy. The other kid was raised by a single parent in a poor neighborhood at a bad public school with no test prep or anything like that. They have to work a job to support their family. On paper they have the same score, but the 2nd kid clearly has more merit, in my opinion. They would likely surpass the other kid if given the same privileges they had.
Thats why there was the dancing before the US invasions; getting "Security Council Resolutions" which we could then enforce as a legal agent of the UN. Those were "Legal wars".

I do not understand the skeins of justifications and circumlocutions around it; it seems very similar to "Might makes Right" with a (tall) froth of persiflage atop it to me. But there are people who hold faith with that fluff and find it a source of righteousness, and I don't say they're utterly wrong and disconnected from reality, either.

Everybody is saying "ask your lawyer." Good advice, but lawyers can be wrong. You know who's seen this a million times before and isn't going to be wrong? YC. So this is a valid question, assuming OP gets a response from actual YC people and not just internet randos.
Of course there’s no way to know for sure, but I would be more inclined to use Rust for projects where the domain is well-understood; however, Kubernetes was (and to an extent, still is) experimental and rapidly evolving. It would be painful to have to do all of that iteration in the presence of a borrow-checker. And yeah, I understand the purported benefits of having a robust type checker protecting you in a refactor.

That said, Kubernetes isn’t a monolith so it doesn’t need to be all-or-nothing, and one component that would likely be well-suited to Rust is etcd.

It is also networking and exposure to a faculty and student body that ideally passes on the very rare, ineffable, and valuable quality where they have the sense that anything is possible and the world can be changed. State schools have less exposure to this. Whether it is actually valuable and transmissible I don't know.
You don't need to ask us, you can just read about it.

I should say upfront that while everyone today considers the US-led intervention a huge blunder for many reasons including humanitarian, Iraq gov at the time was not at all something people sympathized with, and was widely considered to be corrupt, bullying, aggressive to neighbors, etc. Iraq invading Kuwait in the 90s is a closer parallel to Russia invading Ukraine than anything involving the US. (Iraq literally claimed that Kuwait had always been an integral part of Iraq and only became an independent nation due to the interference of the British gov)

At the time there were sanctions on Iraq, that had been there since the 1990s because of that invasion, and for perceived human rights violations. The US at the time considered these sanctions no longer particularly effective.

The US (well, coalition led by the US) invasion was based on faulty/fraudulent premises, but the goals were still ostensibly humanitarian, and the nature of the WMD talk was not proved to be faulty until years later. At the time by failing to disarm and submit to weapons inspections, Iraq was in violation of U.N. Resolutions 660 and 678, and the U.S. could legally (whatever that means) compel Iraq's compliance through military means.

If you are actually interested, you should probably read at least:

Capitalists (i.e., those who own the capital) hate competition. They love to buy regulations and other restraints of trade that keep out competitors and entrench their positions. This occurs in every capitalist society, everywhere, always. So, it's somewhat misleading that their philosophy pretends to value what they hate.

I wish there were good terms for what we sometimes think we mean when we say "capitalism". "Free market" seems good, but the word "capitalism" often shows up in the definition...
Definitely remove this information that may be used by civilians to leave hot zones prior to attack. I cannot believe this level of lack of insight from a group of people who call themselves engineers.
The US was enforcing the UN no-fly zone with its air force. The Iraqi government routinely tried to shoot down these planes with anti-aircraft weapons. This alone was an act of war that justified removing the Iraqi government with force.
The freedom of assembly is specifically the freedom that was curtailed by the Civil Rights Act.

Legally, it should be added... The freedom protected in the first amendment is the freedom of political assembly. The Civil Rights Act has been argued repeatedly in the Supreme Court, and the court has ruled repeatedly that the constitutionally protected freedom of assembly is not curtailed by requiring corporations, incorporated under the rules of the state, to be required to serve everyone in the protected classes.

CloudFlare is providing IT support for Russian websites and keeping them online. They are supporting the wrong side of the Ukrainian Cyber warfare effort. From a digital perspective they are acting as Russian Cyber Mercenaries. CloudFlare is good at what they do, but right now they are acting as an arms dealer supplying both sides.

I think the public is actually going to have a hard time processing this sort of activity. It's easy to understand how an arms dealer profits by selling weapons to both sides, but this kind of stuff doesn't lend itself well to straightforward explanation. Especially if you're starting with "So, there's this thing called Cyber warfare ..."
It's a gamble. 20% 3-guess win/80% 4-guess to FAIL or 100% 4-guess win.

Maximizing information from each guess until the answer is down to two candidates minimizes the number of guesses needed to win.
I am DEFINITELY not a lawyer so as others have said, talk to your counsel about this.

Having said that: The SAFE is a contract. The contract states in the first line "in exchange for the payment by [Investor Name]". If the investor doesn't make the payment, then the contract can be voided for cause. You should be able to give the investor notice that you are terminating the contract for cause (lack of payment).

But again, talk to your lawyer.
