What happens when the crash occurs and your bank nixes your line of credit? They are well within their right to, at least it says so in the fine print.

Then you’re broke, and left holding a very baggy looking portfolio.
I think it is as follows until abou 2026

Central banks has stimulated the economy by lowering interest rate below is natural market price. Central banks try to keep target inflation rate at 2%.
Central banks tried to control wage inflation in a globalized market that does not work. We can import lower wages by buying goods from other countries globalization.

We have prize inflation in food oil prize and fertilizer.

Central banks will increase interest rate to target higher inflation.

Some High loan mortage borrowers will not be able to pay higher mortage rate and will be forced to sell. Selling of homes will cause housing prizes to decrease since buyers will look at how much monthly interest rate they can pay at higher interest rate.
> I stand by my statement: you need to read it a few more times until you understand it.

I understood your comment just fine, I just don't agree. Either way,as I commented earlier it's not the essence here so I see no point in further debating this particular point.
I tend to trust the Fed as well. They saved us from total collapse in '08, and made the COVID recession the shortest one on record. I think after 40 years of practice we're starting to get pretty good at this MMT thing.
> Works like a credit card.

The difference is that the metaphorical credit card of a HELOC has the house as collateral. A normal credit card has no collateral. If you go bankrupt, the HELOC takes the house, but the credit card doesn't.
Looks great but I have to say that the name is probably not helping with branding, awareness, or discovery what-so-ever.

I'm guessing the appeal of such services is "hassle-free" deployment? Because I really don't get it.

My DigitalOcean instance is 2 GB RAM, 30 GB disk. With backups it costs $11.40/month. And yes, I'm free to run whatever on it, be it Postgres or Redis or...

To have an equivalent on Render would be 3-4 times more expensive?
>create a black hole in the lab (spoiler, you wouldn't want to)

Current understanding is that there is nothing dangerous about creating black hole in the lab: it’s going to be so small that it will evaporate quickly, and event horizon is so small that it will be very unlikely to capture new matter.
Since Oxide folks are reading: I'm curious about the details behind the choice of this specific chip - you found a problem last year during evaluation, it's now "chosen part for our product's Root of Trust implementation" and you found another problem. No reason to assume anything else would be any better? Nothing else really on the market that does some specific thing you need? Some of the BigCo's have opened their solutions to this problem - not viable for you to make/obtain, also broken, not actually as open as they claim, ...?
There was a chilling effect from swarms a "you're praying for a recession" about 3 years ago but it certainly wore off. The real power players make money coming and going so real economic growth and wage growth is the last thing they and the executives at media companies want.

> I can't say I have come across much zealotry in the last 8 years :-)

This meme is from 2010, the dust has settled. But there are plenty of tools generating the same kind of zealotry these days. It used to be "why don't you use MongoDB ?", now it's "why don't you rewrite [X] in Rust ?". Call them early adopters instead of zealots if you want. Some of these early adopters just act like they've discovered sliced bread and obviously others are fools for not using it. And later the dust settles.
Yeah, I'll definitely agree with that.

It is still part of a very, very large shift in power away from the historical gatekeepers though (i.e. from "all-powerful overlords" to "anyone can sign up with any of the big DRM streaming platforms today, and there are moderately-sized others too"). Gatekeepers as a whole can be beneficial in a lot of ways, but they tend to turn into power-amassing despots given time. A bit of churn helps reset that to some degree.

I guess the main difference here is that historically (going back decades here) you had to use the gatekeepers to do things at literally any scale beyond handing out records by hand. They effectively controlled all physical sales, and physical sales were the only option. Now there are many more viable options, including stuff like bandcamp where there are few restrictions or costs of any kind. Gatekeepers of portions of a market will always exist, the difference is in how much power they wield over the entire marketplace.
So your point is you can have temporary variables in pure functions. That's fine.

However how do you implement registers? Do you have to pass around the "register file"? And if so, how does that work?

Like, how would a parallel-to-serial shift register look like? Ie an asynchronous latch updates the internal shift register and an independent clock shifts out the values.
This is the first time I’ve read “Zero DevOps” as a product feature, but it seems like a pretty good selling point.

That's great as a snapshot - but add in a time axis.

A year down the line, 20 companies are using your code. Two years down the line, 100 companies are using your code.

Now you have a choice: Do you continue donating your time, servers, emotions and experience to making someone else money?

If you choose yes, know that typically at least one of those companies will be hounding you for bugfixes or out-of-scope demands. We have seen how much the internet can vilify people who refuse to do this kind of free work. If your turnaround for a fix on your globally used code is anything more than minutes, you will be hated. At least, until it's fixed, then you'll go back to being ignored.

If you choose no, well you have two choices: Change the license and yank the rug out from under people, or pass it on to someone else - who might pass it on to someone else - who might pass it on to a scammer who breaks the whole internet. Either way, the internet will vilify you for twice as long for your choice.

Many people, especially with programmer brain chemistry, end up going down the high-momentum-low-friction route of burning themselves out for the sake of conflict (and bad reputation) avoidance. Because it's very easy for you to say "sell your product", especially if that's something you're good at (or if you've never done it before and so presume it's something you're good at).

So once you see that, and you know that, and you see fellow developers stuck in the same hole and you see that you are well placed to do something - anything - to help change that, wouldn't you?

Like most blasé statements, this statement doesn't help anyone. Not least because that's exactly what Tea seems to be trying to help people to do. Whether they succeed or not, no idea - but I wouldn't be bashing the concept this early on.

There's already been a pretty significant correction this year. Short of an escalation of the war or an unexpectedly aggressive interest rate hike, I find it hard to imagine that stocks might hit a lower low this year than the botttom we saw a week or two ago.

> I feel like the stock market has stopped reacting to real world fundamentals in any sense and just seems to continue its upwards march forever.

It'll continue its upward march until the factors causing the upward march change. What else are people going to do with their wealth? As long as the stock market remains one of the best places for investors to put their wealth, they'll keep buying equities and the prices will keep going up. Perhaps we'll see some stagnation or decline as the baby boomers retire and begin liquidating their retirement accounts.
Or because the fed is still printing money like there is no tomorrow. It is kind of puzzling to read Powell claiming he is worried about inflation while still printing huge amounts of QE at the same time.
That works great in major cities and not at all on country roads in the rural US.
I know you wanted to veer back to the topic, but just to add another example to the pile: the math on mass transit is just blindingly obvious. A cheap centralized transit system is wildly more efficient for moving people around than individual cars. And investments in it will "lift all boats" socioeconomically speaking.

But it is more about the problems than the methodology. Centralized/Cooperative methods are more appropriate to solving a complex problem for which you know the solution (building a house, mass transit, maintaining highways). Distributed/Competitive methodology is better for exploring a problem space (determining the most energy efficient house design, innovative bus or train engines, cost effective highway surfaces). If you use cooperative when you should be using competition, you get a cartel. If you use competition when you should be cooperating, you get extreme inefficiency and long delays (I don't think we have a word for when we force groups who should be cooperating to compete with each other for resources).
We run Gitea at my company. In fact, we forked it. It could reeeaaaalllly use a rewrite. If anyone is even mildly ambitious about creating a new alternative to Github/Gitea, it's a great time to do that.

If you like the older iPods you could always get one and upgrade it. I've been thinking of doing something along those lines after seeing a recent HN post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30345399

Also, dissing Chinese-made MP3 players seems a bit weird as I'm pretty sure all iPods were made in China.
I won't deny my ignorance regarding the UK housing market. Here in the US, housing prices are clearly inflated by Fanny/Freddy and artificially low mortgage interest rates.

> Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were created by Congress. They perform an important role in the nation’s housing finance system – to provide liquidity, stability and affordability to the mortgage market. They provide liquidity (ready access to funds on reasonable terms) to the thousands of banks, savings and loans, and mortgage companies that make loans to finance housing.
An Android - old or new - with a custom distribution can be tailored into whatever type of device you want it to be. My daughter has one which works as a phone and can run applications which I have approved (which I can do from my own devices or on hers) with freely selectable time limits. Another device is in use as a remotely-controllable media player running mpd. Yet another one is used as a trailer camera, it creates its own wifi network to which devices which have the correct credentials can connect, using the camera to show video and 2-way audio. I do not have a SIM card in these last two devices but especially the trailer cam could double as a GPS locator seeing as how it takes power from the trailer hookup, using the phone battery as backup. Since it does not need a screen - and since that screen also happened to be broken - I removed it from the device, saving power and prolonging the battery lifetime. The ubiquity of low-price new and older Android devices makes these ideal for this type of alternate use given that they come with ample memory, processing power, a built-in battery and charger circuit, network connectivity, motion sensors, camera and microphone, a compass, gyroscope and more - often to be had for free or a few €.
It's been long known that having a career as an OSS developer is extremely hard. Most people just work on OSS on-and-off, as part of their day job, or a few hours every other day. I treat it as paying it forward for all the tools I use daily.
> having the media doomplay every crisis is part of the confounding or resorbing forces

Capitalist economy is fundamentally predicated on confidence cycles, so anything hitting that confidence will inevitably speed up the coming of the next downturn. However, the downturn would eventually come anyway.

> the 2008 they talked so much about was way smoother than the 1995-1998 crisis

That really depended on where you were and a bunch of other factors. Entire neighbourhoods in the US were gutted by repossessions, in London we had meaningless riots, in the arts sector they saw budgets slashed, etc etc.

> Ukraine is a ripple effect of the IMF stuffup.

Undoubtedly. Also of the post-2001 US doctrine on the use of force in international relations. And a bunch of other things. Nothing ever happens just because somebody woke up that day feeling like starting a war.
An example that comes to mind is the English "to be" working for both essence and state. In Portuguese we have different verbs, so we have the sentence "ele não é assim, ele está assim" which conveys the message that whatever he is going through right now, it doesn't define who he is deep down inside. But a literal translation just becomes the nonsensical "he isn't like that, he is like that".

I was trying to explain to a foreigner when to use "ser" or "estar" when translating "to be" and I tried to explain that one conveys essence and the other state, but that didn't seem to clarify things in his mind. He just kept saying it was all arbitrary which frankly doesn't make much sense in my head.

So I wonder if this linguistical difference provokes dramatical differences in inner thinking and culture as well. For instance, does the message of the aforementioned aphorism still works in English, I just have to find a better translation? Or do English natives will naturally have a stronger sense of a person being tainted by their actions?

Agreed.

I already dislike the requirement of submitting to a credit check for services that aren't lending (and thus don't have to comply with finance-related regulations), have a fixed cost and can be trivially cut-off in case of non-payment such as internet or telephone service. Sadly, this battle has already been lost and the practice has been normalized; most people don't bat an eye and in monopolized industries they don't have a choice anyway.

Open Banking making this even easier is not a good thing as it just means more and more companies will now be doing this, with the inevitable overreaching data collection that follows.

At least with a credit check, all the information they get is identity verification and a very high-level overview of any credit accounts you have open and whether they're in good standing.

With Open Banking, they get a full account history, including detailed timestamps and locations for card purchases (if the bank supports it - modern banks do, and it's just a matter of time before legacy banks catch up). That's a lot of personal data which can be misused for discrimination, price segmentation, etc with very little oversight.

...What? $10 x 1000 = $10k / month. $10k x 12 = $120k. That is a new grad software engineer salary in any US city. You'd pay more than that for a single dev with the devops and security experience to keep GHE running and patched for 1000 devs.

iPod classics go for $200 and up for the later versions, and sometimes thousands of dollars for the earlier versions on eBay.

iPod nano similarly goes for about $180 used.

Hmmm, it looks like I can maybe buy a 5th gen nano for about $60. That may be worth it, if I'm sure I'll always be able to put mp3s on it.
Aren't you afraid this might get your relationship with this supplier tougher ? Not necessarily with engineers, but if some C-level decides that you're giving them bad publicity and blacklist you or making you pay public price for all products ?
Based on my own FAANG experience managing people with serious illness, it's all going to come down to your manager. My company had great resources to help people get help and support, as well as a great leave policy. Leaves didn't count as time when factoring in performance (i.e. leaves aren't supposed to hurt you). One team member of mine had a few leaves over the year, including one of 4+ weeks, and still managed to get an Exceeds rating.

The massive caveat here is that the pressures of work are still very high, and can (and certainly did here) contribute to and/or trigger illness to begin with. With strong support, one could certainly succeed, but my opinion is that YMMV depending on your manager.

Given that $100k is the income bracket where people are highly leveraged on college loans (and housing prices), it makes sense that they are often more sensitive to economic conditions than those working lower-income jobs.

You NEED a strong economy to stay above water on the debt — you took out $200k in college + law school loans to accelerate your career and if you can't get a high-income job in your specialty you simply can't fall back to a low-income job without being in crushing debt forever.

I don't "trust" them, because I don't trust any small group of extremely smart people. It's easy for group think to occur, and for the group to construct brittle systems that go horribly wrong.

That being said, the policy makers and the economists at the Fed are far more capable than most people think. They've gotten a lot right, and proven most naysayers wrong. But the question is, how long will that record last?

I don't think much has really changed except that the scales have fallen from the eyes of most Western countries. The military has always had the same pretty much the same posture towards Russia wrt threats and nuclear deterrents.

I see the spread of disinformation and propaganda as something that will inoculate the populace ultimately.

I think Russia (and China) has done the West a favor. Hopefully the West will start offering integration into our economies as a reward for democratic reforms instead of as an incentive, because god knows that hasn't produced the desired result.
