At the same time because of supply and demand, even when more and more apartments are being built I would expect single family homes to still go for top of market rates and be in very high demand forever. The supply we are adding into most built out areas is just apartment stock mostly optimized for the recent college grad vs a family with children (e.g. mostly 1 or 2 bedrooms, and a pool/hottub area clearly optimized for people drinking alcohol than kids playing), because these areas are built out by definition and there isn't available land to add any more greenfield single family home stock to the local inventory. That single family home stock imo will always be constrained in cities and will never get cheaper. Apartments and condos might see their costs not swell so much, but not ever detached homes imo.
This is awesome! That [location redacted] video is very cool.
There is no right to unrestricted commerce. In many cases new restrictions don't even need new laws just new regulations drafted by bureaucracs defined in existing laws.

You seem to believe that one must reach backwards to the constitution in order to justify any new restrictions on your freedoms in a nation where we have happily redefined commerce within a state as subject to regulation based on the commerce clause. Let alone the general welfare clause.

In fact powers are so broadly construed that the only barrier is enumeration of a restriction in federal law and non violation of fundamental rights.

You have no more fundamental right to sell a locked down device than to build a store without proper fire exits. We didn't need to wait for fire exits to be built and vote with our feet.
Then you sell it on LooksRare, which many ape holders apparently already use due to the lower fees.

Yes, good point. The truth is Europe is utterly helpless militarily. They can't defend against Russian action in Eastern Europe without American military power. So they have to accept these sanctions as the cost of that protection. This is no doubt part of the why the United States has lobbied so strongly against the development of an integrated EU army, which is the probably the only way Europe can by itself deter aggression on its periphery.
This project looks very useful. It's easy to burn through $1000 in software engineering time setting up the initial stages of a project and this looks like it does a great job of streamlining that for you.

Another thing I like about this project: I've always felt that the rails community does a better job than the django community in the out-of-the-box experience of setting up a new app. This project seems to bring some of that niceness to the django world (and would be similar to https://jumpstartrails.com/).

I am half Chinese and a martial artist (northern shaolin kung fu). I'm also a huge fan of philosophy as expressed via animation or science fiction.

When I saw Kung Fu Panda in the theater, I was impressed with how a mainstream American animated film captured the subtle aspects of my culture. KhoomeiK gets into the details below (I would add Buddhism to Daoism and Confucianism, but that's minor), but the general stoicism expressed by the characters (except Po) is the environment I knew as a child.

Of course Mulan had come out before this, but Mulan was more focused on the narrative and themes around the protagonist. KFP has an ensemble cast beginning-to-end, which allowed for a broader exploration of the philosophy. Each time two characters interact, you get some additional debate that paints a broader picture, leading to the amazing quotes in this article.

At the time, there were even articles about how surprisingly successful it was in China despite being made in the US about Chinese philosophy [1]. You could argue this kicked off what has now become a much larger Chinese film industry.

I'll add from a strictly technical standpoint, the subtle animations for the martial arts are superbly correct. The different animals (Tiger, Crane, etc) are explicit Kung Fu styles. The stances, forms, weapons and training they show are really exact. There's a scene where Shifu corrects young Tai Lung's stance with a stick. The stance is real down to the feet placement in the animation (bow and arrow stance), and in traditional training they do correct you with sticks.

I'll end with one last anecdote: In KFP 2, there's a scene where Tigress says she learned punching "hard style" by hitting an ironwood tree for 20 years. It's written as a joke, but I actually had a Kung Fu instructor who trained that way in real life. Now you train on progressively harder surfaces for punching over a period of 7 years or more, but when he started in the 80's you apparently did it on trees.

The problem with dictators is that they don’t stop at their borders. In fact they don’t do boundaries and behave as though there’s nothing outside of their control or influence, including you and your children.

Plenty of people should worry about it. People have to physically remove themselves from these environments in order to seek opportunities for their own children and assure their long term opportunities. Millions of people are being displaced today by the whims of a Russian dictator, and we should assume dictatorship is good and well?

Everything is designed around its own pitfalls. Books, podcasts, movies, television shows, flatscreen video games, they all have their own strengths and weaknesses. When a movie comes along that does an astounding job of playing to cinema's strength, people are going to bring it up as an example of a good movie. Beat Saber is the same.

Which isn't to say all games have to be designed strictly around VR's strengths, there are games that exist in both formats, and sometimes it comes out better than the original version (Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, Super Hot). Other times it's just ok because the game design doesn't translate as well to VR (Skyrim, Borderlands).

If what you're hoping for is mainstream AAA titles to get adapted into VR and achieve millions of sales, then yes I think you'll be disappointed. But Beat Saber isn't the only opportunity to be thoughtful about how VR interfaces work. I doubt I'd have ever bought a minigolf game to play on a TV, but Walkabout Mini Golf is relaxing and a lot of fun. On the shooter side of things, you have games like Half-Life: Alyx or Hyper Dash. Puzzling Places lets you assemble 3D puzzles of scanned real world environments. Tea For God takes a limited play area and carefully designs a continuous level that feels boundless as you walk freely though it.

We're not going to have Matrix-like VR interactions any time soon where you swing a sword and your hands are physically stopped when your opponent blocks it. But I wouldn't look at that and say "No way this goes anywhere, the pinnacle of game design is the limitless interface of two thumb sticks, four buttons, a D-pad, and a pair of bumpers/triggers."

Thanks! I found Reactive somehow yesterday — haven't looked closely at it yet but I will. Always cool to see more stuff in the ecosystem. But yeah, personally I feel like there are few things the Django community could learn (or at least try) from the Laravel (and Rails) communities. I love free software, but it has downsides too! (Like the fact that I can't justify spending all my time on it.)

Mint is probably a good alternative. It's based on Ubuntu but they don't even allow snap to be installed by default.

Why does the advertising platform need to be the same service as the tool for finding old friends? Why do either of those things need to be bundled with an event planning tool? Why is that combined service serving the vast majority of the populations of both Indonesia and Canada (for example)? My point is simply that I, and the vast majority of businesses, would get the exact same value from Facebook if it operated at the scale of a single country or even more locally. Or if it were one of many competing platforms that each had a far smaller market share.

To be clear: I know the answer, in economic terms - economies of scale, network effects, etc. But also I don't care about that, because none of that matters to me. And the downsides (and externalities) of having a single giant service functioning at this scale are massive.

The costs are large, and the benefit to me is small. That's why "we just need to accept it" is an absurd argument to me - I don't personally benefit from Facebook being as large as it is, and I would experience no great personal or professional loss if Facebook were far, far smaller.

This isn't true — the native 1600 nits mode only uses 1600 nits for HDR content. Regular content/OS UI/etc is still limited to much less brightness.

Based upon my experience, and as others have mentioned, it all boils down to the person you are reporting to. I am at a stage in my career that I don't give a f'ck (never really gave a f'ck even when I was starting my career) - and I am being more open about my mental-health challenges because there is a needless stigma associated with mental-health issues and also ignorance (many consider it to be a 'weakness' - and I have had many talk/mention mental-health in such terms).

My advice is to find the right people to work with. Life is too short to work with d'cks and those who don't have empathy to others - and there are plenty of such a'holes in all industries - but more so in FAANG, nee MMAGAN (Meta & Microsoft) where it is not only the toxic bro-culture, but also always trying to find some 'weakness' in others.
So here's the problem with this naive model...

As soon as they start paying app creators, a bunch of hustle culture shonkwankers will git clone a bunch of repositories and spam a bunch of bogus apps just like they currently do with other artists' work with NFTs.

Compensating creators will turn into compensating people who front-run creators and squat names and stuff.

I think the impact was for some reason not consistent between users (maybe due to geographical factors or maybe sharding of accounts?). We're in Asia and I think we've had three different days recently where we couldn't actually get much work done due to GitHub being flakey or down for the entire day and our CI/CD and development processes being built around it. We ended up moving off GitHub onto a self-hosted system, which took about a day of work for one engineer (CI/CD itself was already self-hosted, so just Git, issues and PRs), and there have already been two more GitHub outages since then.

I knew that cyclobutane existed (a ring of four carbon atoms with attached hydrogen atoms which is 'weird' in the sense that the angles between the bonds are not what would be expected for a carbon atom with four bonds [0]) but learned about the existence of ladderanes today. Their structure looks just soo unusual.

Speaking of unusual structures, here is something like a 2D version of a ladderane:

Actually browsers don't need any new features. All you need is a proxy that can decide to fetch resources on www vs. ipfs. I did a small PoC with mitmproxy where if the subdomain is ipfs I fetch the resource from ipfs instead of the web. worked great, also worked without the proxy because I hosted it on the www as well.

I also did a youtube-dl proxy: First time it goes to youtube and in the background I fire up youtube-dl and cache the content. on subsequent requests I serveup a minimal html site with the local video downloaded.

The only thing about mitmproxy is it can be a bit slow.
Written In Rust is great because Rust is one of those Fun And Shiny languages that people want to write in just to write in it, like Elixir or Node (topical!), except it's not going to pull an Electron and involve a giant VM and a bundle system that includes a user-mode Xbox controller driver by default, but rather is faster in its first draft than you could possibly squeeze out of one of those other languages. Rust captures the 'systems they don't teach you about in college' vibe without products written in it slightly decreasing the usability of the developer ecosystem.
>mostly political

Mostly, not entirely. Furthermore, this housing crunch has been decades in the making, not something that's suddenly happened, as evidenced by prices spiraling out of control. It's no surprise that trying to build a new home during a worldwide labor and supply chain crunch is especially difficult.

Complaining to a politician may not provide immediate relief now, but in the long term if supply was able to meet demand, prices should stabilize.

Of course there is a "decent" priced one:

I’m curious why this form of piracy is praised and encouraged by so many people, but when people sell DVDs on the street the police drag them away. At least the guy on the street adds value to the person buying the DVD. This guy is just inserting himself as a valueless middleman between the original poster and the viewer.
You are a fool if you think militias don't use civilian structures and human shields. War is a dirty affair.
The "phase transition" might be when Russia's supply situation goes critical. Yesterday I saw a claim that it would happen in three days, so Friday.

Is that claim correct? I hope so, and it sounds reasonable... but I don't know.
Not exactly true. From what I've seen, upon investigation, targeted facilities were being used for military purposes. Again, if they were fine just killing civilians, they'd have just flattened a couple of cities to make an example of them and we'd have millions of dead civilians. The war has become complicated because Ukraine has been arming people en masse (totally legitimate) and operating out of civilian infrastructure (also legitimate in specific circumstances, but it makes that infrastructure a legitimate military target). I'm sure there's been some bungled strikes, and possibly some malicious ones, but that's clearly not the general thrust of the Russian strategy here. Do you really think Russia doesn't have the capability to just bomb central Kiev out of existence?

Came here to say the same thing. It's an absolute breeze.
Not completely:

> Who owns the ENS rootnode? What powers does that grant them?
> The root node is presently owned by a multisig contract, with keys held by trustworthy individuals in the Ethereum community...

To be fair, they did a good job at decentralizing what can be decentralized, but there is still a central authority. But DNS is also mostly technically decentralized, most root servers are actually multiple machines spread all over the world, and there are several roots. People don't talk to ICANN directly, instead they use registrars that talk to ICANN. And ICANN delegates authority to TLD owners. Besides storing the database on a blockchain, ENS is not so different. Even payment is in dollars (converted to ETH, but the official numbers are dollars).

I didn't look it up too much but it looks like a key difference is that once you register a domain, it is yours for as long as you have paid for and no one can change that (or maybe it isn't, in this case, it is exactly like DNS). It is a good and a bad thing. It is good against censorship, but it also means that if someone registers a domain under your company name (or personal name) and point it to child porn, there is nothing you or anyone else can do.

Sorry to clarify - you can run any correlation on those two lines (wither lagged or not) and you'll find very little direct relationship, but the more important point is:

By saying interest rates and inflation are not correlated, I meant that both inflation and interest rates were declining to historic lows, which is in direct opposition to the theory that 'raising interest rates reduced inflation.' As you can see on this chart, interest rates aren't even that much lower than they were in the period where we were worried we'd never see inflation ever again.

My main gripe with the current narrative around inflation is 'does it really seem logical that moving from 2.5% to 1.0% 10Y yields is what caused inflation (when going from 7.5% to 2.% had no effect), given all we know about how broken our supply chains have become?'

> This will go down as one of the biggest policy mistakes in Fed history.

The Fed largely caused the 2008 crisis by underestimating the effects of falling house prices on bank solvency.

What's crazy is that all I hear about in the financial press is how the Fed saved the economy after 2008. Conveniently omitted is that their miscalculations also caused the crash.

Whenever the Fed talks about finding a soft landing, I get nervous.
Two questions:

1. How would power conditioners and lightning arresters handle these sorts of situations?

2. Was this using VMWare fault tolerant VMs, just out of curiosity? (It continually live-migrates one VM to a hot spare over a 10G link so either can disappear and the VM continues to run.) Or was this a bespoke application architecture implementing effectively the same thing?

This is a little exaggerated. It rains a little more than average across the US. However, since in SF it rains a little less than average it's a bigger relative swing.
You are missing the point.

You are basically asking me to send you $5M for a car (the exploit) supposedly parked into a garage (the encrypted exploit) whose location is stored on the blockchain (the encryption key).

At the time of me sending you $5M, I do not know whether or not there actually is a car in this garage.

All I can do is trust your words that there is a car in this garage.

Now that I sent you $5M, the blockchain contract reveals the location of the garage.

Now that I have the location of the garage, I make my way there; 2 things can happen:

- I open the garage, there is a car inside

- I open the garage, there is no car inside

At what point in this whole transaction did putting the location of the garage on the blockchain help me (the buyer) in any way? What matters to me as a buyer is getting a car, not the assurance of _maybe getting a car_.

You could have sent me the location by email, fax, pigeon, blockchain contract, facebook messenger, telegram, signal, whatsapp, the outcome would be the same.

#1 can perhaps be taken at face value. People do write code differently, and many people don't want to even touch code written in a different style. Learning how to write code in someone else's style can be interesting and rewarding in the right context, but working with someone who insists on having everything done according to their preferences very often isn't, so your mileage may vary here.

#2 is a well-known problem that a vast number of people have run into - You have to have a job to get a job. The best advice I can give here is that getting a job through someone you know tends to be the most effective way, having an online CV and having them call you sometimes works, and actually applying to jobs is usually a dead end, but not always.

#3 might mean that they would like you to do that job instead of the job you originally wanted, but they phrase it as something that would be in your interest, since that's what they learned to do in middle manager school. If the other job is more interesting and pays more, then fine, but what are the odds of that?
This wasn't that great of an issue until the annexation of Crimea. This is a false narrative, please sosi huy. So what if a sovereign neighbor wants to join a defensive alliance? NATO, unlike Russia, hasn't ever attacked its neighboring countries. Countries seek to join NATO to deter Russia from invalidating their sovereignty.
Several of the recent outages were much longer (at least for us, here in Asia) than they admitted on their status page. In one case I started work, noticed I couldn't push to or pull from GitHub, that situation persisted all day, and around 5pm local time (so morning-ish in the US) suddenly their status page acknowledged the problem and a discussion started on HN.
