Human behavior is strongly driven by cultural aspects.

Smiling during a deal might be seen as “friendly” in the West, while seen as “dumb” in the East.

If humans can’t even accurately judge the behavior of other humans why would they be able to judge that of another species?

Lagrangian mechanics can handle dissipative systems. In many cases, friction included, it's as simple as adding a dissipative term to the Euler-Lagrange equations. This seriously complicates the process of deriving them, but physicists were always handwaving their way through it anyway.

Hamiltonian mechanics faces more serious obstacles, though if you really want to you can engineer a noncanonical symplectic structure to capture the dissipation. Wouldn't recommend it though.
You made it halfway there. Keep going.

What happens when that unsophisticatded speculator purchases a bunch of properties at prices above what they're worth? If he can't make the payments on them, eventually he'll be forced to sell, or perhaps even declare bankruptcy.

Those properties will eventually be sold at the market equilibrium price, possibly even lower than that because he will likely need to sell in a hurry to meet his obligations, or because a bank forclosed on him and wants the money now and will also accept a below market price to liquidate them quickly.

Which is exactly what happened to Zillow. They realized they paid too much and couldn't make money with them and are now unwinding their position at a loss.

The 2008 crash was caused by fraud on the part of consumers on their loan applications. It was not caused by speculation. Income was not properly documented on a lot of those loans. Many lenders actually did verify income and required a significant down payment from buyers, and weathered the crisis well.

The fraud coupled with low down payment requirements turned these loans into very risky assets, but the banks securitized them and sold them to third parties, who percieved them as nearly risk free assets. The real scandal was that those assets were rated as very low risk by Moody's and S&P but turned out to be basically junk quality.

And then lots of investors used leverage to buy them and, lo and behold, they were not risk free assets, and the use of leverage when investing in those securities destroyed a lot of investors and institutions when those securities stopped performing. The fact that the ratings agencies stamped the assets as very low risk is the real scandal: banks thought they were almost as good as treasury bonds and they clearly were not.

After the crash, a lot of those securities got picked up at basment bargain prices, and most of them actually did peform fairly well, with 90%+ of individual loans performing. I invested in a company that picked up a lot of those securities at fire sale prices after the crash and did pretty well.

Which gets back to my original point: speculation is only a destabilizing force if the speculators are not well capitalized against losses, and things move against them.

The 2008 crash would have turned out differently if the purchasers of those loans used less leverage or were better capitalized, or did their own due dilligence when investing.

They largely gravitated to wherever the sun shined the most on the floor, and one of them liked to jump into the fridge and nap in there. It was a fun party trick to have a cat abruptly push open and exit the refrigerator in the middle of dinner or a board game, but clearly not the best guide for where to put the bed.

I have had similar struggles as you, we can nail rock/OKRs/plans etc... but I always felt like my strategic lens was lacking.

I've read the book and yes, it will answer your question. It shares the theory and does a great job of walking through cases to reinforce the point. Been a founder/CEO for 10 years and this book changed the way I think about strategy.

My favorite part:

Diagnosis - why are we in this mess (define the problem or challenge)?

Guiding policy - what method are we going to use address the challenge?

Coherent action - typical OKR stuff, what do people need to do in what time period?

In previous strat plans I did have some of these elements but this framework helped ensure I was consistently considering the right pieces and was thorough in my analysis.
Really appreciate the way you explained this. For some reason it helped me reach a breakthrough on a slide deck narrative I’ve been working on. Thanks for sharing.
This one changed my life also. The diverse personalities and foreign cultures we all experience as "other" can be confusing--and for me, seemed to have no core theory that could broadly guide my interactions with people.

Non-violent Communication helped me to understand there is a shared underpinning to the experience of being human--that emotions are fundamental, and that there are some universal human needs. From that foundation, I could see how important it is to observe the context of any conversation with someone, and to react based on an empathic curiosity of their feelings & needs. This freed me from a more narrow reaction space that was based on my interpretation/story of the content of their communication.

Someone can be screaming "I hate you!" and be feeling hurt, alone, and scared. I think we recognize this most in connection with people we are close to and love, but don't know how for people we don't know or don't yet "love." Reacting to the content of someone's words vs. attempting to understand the contextual emotion & human needs almost always diverges into vastly different potential outcomes.
By this logic what is wrong with all those people getting up early and driving to work, don’t they know some of us don’t have a job! Where do they get off?
It's pretty well established that diesel motors produce PM2.5 particles that are damaging to humans, if it's a 30 year old unit it's probably pumping it out in good quantities with little restriction. PM2.5 particulate from a diesel motor starts to irritate the lungs and eyes pretty quickly.

We've always given a pass to cars for the unpleasantness they bring into a city because we figure there's no alternative, that's just how the city runs. But there are alternatives now, and people are getting fed up with the noise, smells and pollution.

Even without the very well document health affects, cars are just shitty to be around when you're not inside one yourself, I think it's fair that we'd rather not deal with them when on foot or in your own home when possible.

Handbook of BASIC, Third Edition by David I. Schneider published in 1988

This book probably launched my career in programming. When the book wore out, I carefully cut off the spine, hole punched it, and moved it into a 3-ring binder. I still have it.

It’s a complete reference to the language I cut my teeth on as a teenager. The appendix was particularly useful.

>I think that they might be fabricating a pretext to justify the use of tactical nukes, as a nuclear response to a claimed chemical attack. Yesterdays they declared the use of hypersonic Kinzhal missiles, so that is also a kind of lowering of the nuclear threshold.

Definitely. I can see how Russian propaganda will be shouting that they had to do that to save Ukrainian lives the same way like they have been hammering again and again that they had to do that "special operation" to liberate Ukrainians. I'm worried that NATO has shown itself as being too vulnerable to blackmail of "don't get involve otherwise you'll be at war with us, a nuclear Russia".

The chemical attack on a Russian city would be a pretext pretty similar to apartment building bombings https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_apartment_bombings which served as pretext to the Second Chechen war:

"The Russian apartment bombings were a series of explosions that hit four apartment blocks in the Russian cities of Buynaksk, Moscow and Volgodonsk in September 1999, killing more than 300, injuring more than 1,000, and spreading a wave of fear across the country. The bombings, together with the Invasion of Dagestan, triggered the Second Chechen War.[1][2] Then-prime minister Vladimir Putin's handling of the crisis boosted his popularity greatly and helped him attain the presidency within a few months.

...

On 13 September, Russian Duma speaker Gennadiy Seleznyov made an announcement in the Duma about receiving a report that another bombing had just happened in the city of Volgodonsk. A bombing did indeed happen in Volgodonsk, but only three days later, on 16 September.
"

I was still in Russia back then and i remember how bombings immediately stopped when vigilant tenants of one of such buildings caught some people bringing the explosives into the building basement - these people with explosives happened to be FSB agents and officials claimed it is a training exercise. (and if you look into attempts of independent investigations of the bombings - the people who tried to investigate, provided info, etc. (like Yushenko, Litvinenko, Politkovskaya and others) ended up assassinated or dying from mysterious poisons or disappearing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergei_Yushenkov#Investigation... )
I don't think that is true except, perhaps in the case of much older vehicles—particularly carbureted, rather than injected—vehicles. Most of the advice I have read in, say, the last 20 years for gasoline-powered vehicles, is to allow no more than about 30 seconds to a minute of standing warm up before gently driving off. The engine will be fully lubricated within 10-15 seconds and ready to go.
Maybe I am misunderstanding how this works, but if you did that, you would no longer have a pointer with a valid metadata flag, and if you try to use it, you get a fault (at least on the Morello board that ARM has built). Perhaps you could do this on something that is just emulating CHERI, but at that point why are you doing this at all?

No it doesn't. NYC has some of the lowest crime rates in the nation. Here is deaths per capita from interpersonal violence (aka homicide) circa 2014. You can view as far back as 1980. NYC crime rates dipped below the national average in 1995 and have only gotten lower since.

Your right about the disconnect between those on the coast and those outside, because you're obviously disconnected from the real on-the-ground situation in New York. "Why don't people identify with my political views", because some people identify with the version of reality editorialized on TV, and thus smugly berate us over the problems we don't actually have.
"During our conversation, I was continually struck by the degree to which Hotz and his company are anti-mimetic. Like many founders of tech startups—thanks to the influence of Peter Thiel – Hotz has a passing familiarity with René Girard’s theory of mimetic desire.

Ask HN: Anyone aware of details about a Hubspot customer data leak incident?
A few different crypto organizations are notifying users that their customer data leaked from a Hubspot marketing product.

Hubspot has not announced a hack or that there has been a data leak. There's no news about this that I can see yet.

I'm curious why multiple crypto organizations (BlockFi, Pantera, others) are naming Hubspot as the responsible party.

The parent comment got down-voted, but I think it is spot on. Maybe officially this new "law" says that it's only illegal to record police within less than 8 feet (or at 8 feet), but of course it will be abused and exploited to harass and arrest persons collecting footage of police violence, and to seize their recording equipment.
BQE and Cross-Bronx Expressway definitely not. Building highways through cities is extremely damaging and exist only to ferry suburbanites into and out of the city. Moses wanted to build a highway through Greenwich village. That would have been devastating for lower Manhattan. Intra-city Highways destroy the very vibrancy required for them to adapt and change.

As someone who lived in Russia for 3 years (just barely got out of there with my family before the war started), I know how brainwashed Russians are, by the state media. And, most people don't know about or have access to alternative sources. So sending personal messages to individual Russians is quite important. They are simply oblivious to what's going on and only "know" what the state media feeds them.

This heavily depends on the temp range you are discussing.

Lubrication is the least of your worries at certain temperatures. The engine block and pistons being too cold cause problematic expansion and contraction which can lead to block cracks or permanent engine knock issues from what I've seen. This will eventually lead to needing an engine replacement.

Marcus Aurelius's Meditations, undoubtedly.
Interesting that he's not sure what a strategy consists of after reading the book. I read the same book and it does give a definition, with three essential parts, but frustratingly doesn't then link the examples back to show how they illustrate the definition.

Rumelt says good strategy consists of:

"1. A diagnosis that defines or explains the nature of the challenge. A good diagnosis simplifies the often overwhelming complexity of reality by identifying certain aspects of the situation as critical.

2. A guiding policy for dealing with the challenge. This is an overall approach chosen to cope with or overcome the obstacles identified in the diagnosis.

3. A set of coherent actions that are designed to carry out the guiding policy. These are steps that are coordinated with one another to work together in accomplishing the guiding policy."
U(1) symmetry (R also works in a classical setting: it's the Lie algebra that matters) is exactly how you get a "generic three-form" to drop out of the action.

If it's sufficiently old it probably doesn't produce as much PM2.5. Very old engines tend to produce larger particles. There was an unfortunate period in the development of diesel engines where the engine burnt the fuel well enough to produce very small particles and high amounts of NOx but before filters were mandatory. Of course the old engines will in put out a lot more hydrocarbon pollution which is not particularly healthy either.

I don't know if that is the answer either. I live in a society where kids are duty bound to provide care for their parents and grandparents as they age.

You can actually hear my '96 motor quiet down as the oil makes it's way through the head. Takes about 15 seconds. I wait for the engine coolant temp to reach 75c before I give it a good wick. It fluctuates between 75c and 85c under good load.

Interesting to me, is that when idling down a hill it does not drop, but if left in gear going down a hill it does drop in temp. It can actually get itself below operating temperature in gear going down a hill. I presume because the heat being pulled out via pumping air through the combustion chamber is greater than the thermostat would allow to be pulled out via the radiator.
