You don't understand what schizoposting is. It's not whatever pseudointellectual gibberish you wrote up top. It's a drawing of a crazed gunman aiming at children getting off a bus, but calling the children gangstalkers and the school bus a surveillance van. It's a mix of sardonic and absurd humor.
Let’s make this simpler still:

> But I wasn’t even advocating for eliminating money.
Money doesn't "keep track of resources." If it did, the Fed would not have been able to create $2 trillion in "Quantitative Easing."

It's an imperfect analogy, but I think dollars are more like inches - useful to measure and compare things, and subject to redefinition at the whims of power. (Imagine a carpenter telling you he can't finish building your bookcase because he's "run out of inches." They are not the things they measure.)

What do you expect when dealing with an environment as deliberately toxic as Twitter, with millions of bots fake-networking all over the place to be later used to generate fake hype or fake support, and the engagement schemes optimized for three minute hates.

> Do you find that you're more "out of the loop"? Naively, I would expect you to become a lot more of a satellite employee, less involved in any decisionmaking

yes. more decisions will be made without your ability to influence them. if everyone else is full time then projects won't wait for you!

there are some ways to mitigate this, that perhaps also overlap with ways to organise decision making more effectively. if your company or team has a culture of drafting and circulating written docs (e.g. engineering design docs) before making a decision, then you can somewhat influence decisions by submitting written feedback and recommendations in advance, even if you cannot attend the meeting on the day when the decision will be made. also, if there is some written record of the decision -- written up in the company wiki, or emailed, or broadcast into the project slack channel -- then you can catch up over morning coffee and review how the entire strategy has changed since last week.

similarly, avoid becoming a bottleneck for your full-time colleagues. if i leave a code review on a colleague's pull request that we're not able to close off before my week ends, i tell them they don't need to wait for me to "approve" the pull request & ask them to merge it when they feel they've sufficiently addressed review feedback, or get a colleague to review it instead.

ha! I was going to say the same thing, in fact I think that blocking people just ends up giving them the satisfaction that they had this power over you but also could serve as a powerful signal to twitter users with lot of followers.

Twitter does to a certain degree do a good job of hiding replies under 'show more replies' I get the feeling that people with 5 digit and up followers do not click it, if they do, most do not go out of their way to block people.

Get Ready for the World to Be Covered in Electronic Ink (2016)
This is an interesting idea. There are a few other public goods that are similarly shaped (document notarization and land records/registry are the examples that leap to mind).

But there are a few areas of potential problems, such as diploma mills with deceptive homoglyph names or domains (eg. һаrѵarⅾ.edu).
Robert Lustig talks about this quite a bit. The data shows widespread obesity in modern times is a direct result of all the added sugars in the standard American diet.
I don't know if this would actually work but I've wished for years there were 24" full color e-ink books I could put on my coffee table and have them display coffee table books in full color.

I don't know how far away that is from (1) looking as good as color print (2) being relatively sturdy (3) being under $300 so I can buy several.

I got rid of all my books at one point and at the time I'd wished I could have scanned all the art books (didn't have the time to arrange it)
People are so fake on LinkedIn anyway nowadays, it's just the next logical step.
On a skill rating of 1-20, I'd say most resume items are 2-6. It's fine. Unless you're FAANG or a higher tier startup, you're not going to get applicants with over a 15. Most of the time, you hire someone with a 4 and take them to 9.

The scale is fairly logarithmic, like a 8 might be 10 times better than a 3. 1 is hello world, 2 is being able to debug something with stack overflow, 3 is your fizzbuzz tier of being able to chain three concepts together, but not able to build anything without help.

And then there's the Dunning-Kruger peak. Most evangelists are like this. They're very excited for a technology, but you find that they have no practical skill in it. Very often, they misunderstand the concepts too.
Strict curation is the key to Twitter usage. Otherwise it's just an avalanche of crap.
I had been wanting to set up a fund in which I copy some WSB trades because I think there are some users there who have demonstratable skill, but the problem is filtering out the noise posts. You have to be checking constantly for trade ideas. He said he started with $50k, so a 25x return. even just sinking $5k would have been a good payday.
A possible explanation that the US is still somehow leading despite the drop in proficiency in education (if that is indeed actually true), is that the high level of tech and investment done in the 70's and 80's are still playing out (and returning dividends). It might take one or two generations to pass before the cracks show up as real problems - like a demographic transition, you cannot patch it after the problem is discovered, but must anticipate and pre-empt the problem.

If the education in the US is in decline, then the next 2-3 decades will show a decline in innovation and tech improvements coming out of the US.

Enterprise Browser is not a new concept, at all. Both Chrome and Edge has Enterprise Browser versions for years, with central control capabilities like these built in and controllable by the enterprise admin. See more here:

1- Chrome Enterprise: https://chromeenterprise.google/security/
2- Edge Enterprise: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/ms-edge-security...

Also, keeping a browser software itself secure from all external threats is a very very tall order. Both Google and Microsoft have large teams of security experts and trillions of daily points collected that helps to find and fix security issues in the browser software itself. Not sure one can trust a very early product and nascent software - while copy-paste by employees may have been controlled, the real hackers may not be prevented from exploiting the security issues in complex browser software that Google and Microsoft fix on a daily basis.

This startup will have a very hard time to compete or replace either Chrome or Safari, when enterprises who care about such central controls can turn on such tech within Chrome and Safari itself. Enterprises who would want to silently monitor will simply turn on such control capabilities in common browsers, vs blatantly asking their teams to switch and use a browsers that is only known for such monitoring--- LoL
People have very finite bandwidth. You already suppress voices by consciously deciding not to follow them. This tool just improves curation effectiveness.
To go back to the lawnmower; 4 wheel drive is something that is entirely possible with electric, where most have 2 wheel (front wheel is cheapest) open drive. Come to an angled hill and they slip. Electric and a small computer for the wheels and you can lock a differential or 2 without causing irreversible load on the single motor.

There induction stove improves compared to the gas stove, but touch buttons go too far.

Ebikes and scooters are definitely capable of reimagining transportation, if we can get the scary cars reduced on the same infrastructure.

With a moonshot idea like this, your customer is the investors, not the customer/user/people who might wanna advertise. I think the mistake was trying to make money too early? Just take a few mill from an angel, and get coding.

If you want a rent-paying idea, then that looks more like a boring 'me too' idea. Yet another Pingdom clone should do the trick.
The author is reading a script. In the second sentence, you proved his point.

Also, as someone who had depression at one point and has an anxiety disorder that is medically treated, but not cured, yes, people with anxiety disorders cannot think coherently. One of the many symptoms of panic includes the inability to use your brain. Think dear in the headlights type stuff.

Anxiety disorders are a part of much of the world, FYI, so people with an anxiety order aren't rare by any means.
An unsafe block is significantly better than the code proposed in the article.
It's not petty, it's just controlling your inputs.
The fact that the underlying number of resources changes dynamically is not related to whether money keeps track of those resources. The quantitative easing is akin to when an OS overcommits memory and starts doling out more memory than actually exists in response to malloc() calls.

This works because people (programs) aren't going to start using the money/memory right away, or even necessarily at all. Yet, it prevents the system from locking up (or crashing). The fact that not that much memory exists doesn't mean that your malloc() call doesn't let you keep track of how much memory you are allocated. You can't just start writing to memory that hasn't been allocated to you, in essence. The memory (and money) put a bounds on what kind of behavior you can do, what kind of resources you can use.
There is a saying about writing, you are allowed to break the rules provided your errors are consistent. Randomly messing up there and their just makes you look stupid.
> people want to be good but debt and financial problems can negatively impact judgement. people take risks when they are desperate.

Tech ( corporate ) pays well enough that anyone with reasonable cost of living and lifestyle shouldn’t resort to extreme desperate measures. The rest is greed. The fact these people have money to play with stocks already shows they’re much better off than the average person.
How is your expression suppressed? Free speech doesn’t mean I’m obliged to listen to you.
Surely there is a spectrum here. On one side is vaguely annoying expressions that are just... well, annoying. They're not the types of things that you'd say, and not the types of things you'd prefer others say, but you generally put up with them (i.e. ignore them) because that's the expected thing to do in polite society. On the far other side are things that you really find very distasteful or upsetting or offensive. Things that you would very much not like to see.

Everyone is going to have a different threshold within this spectrum regarding where they deploy a "megablock", and people are naturally going to disagree about if that was the right threshold to apply. I don't use twitter, but my first reaction is: it's plausible that I might find sufficiently disturbing things on twitter such that I would deploy such a tool.
Thanks for the correction. Good stuff! There are pretty solid fears from some people that the Qld gas-related fracking (which in principle is well below the artesian water) will cause contamination. I'm not a geologist, and the ones I know are hesitant to say there's "no" risk, albiet small ones. But contamination of groundwater is one of those "hard to unscramble the egg" things.

There was some kind of proposal to fund covering the open bore drains. I think it died/withered on the vine. Capping stops at source, Covering would be stopping evaporative losses in transport. Maybe we should have Qanat like in the middle east!
Maybe mercury is different (though I doubt it), but current electric propulsion sats use nothing like that much mass. A Boeing 702 HP (a big GEO comsat) Xenon propulsion system has a capacity for 266kg of Xenon; uses about 5kg per year for station keeping. Constellation sats are usually smaller; a Starlink sat is about 260kg total. Dunno how much krypton they carry, but probably in the low 10s of kg each.

This may be a useful pattern to you. The example is in Java but you should be able to achieve the same in Python https://apocalisp.wordpress.com/2009/08/21/structural-patter....

Some people will block accounts that follow accounts they don't like. I specifically follow people I don't agree with so I am exposed to the dumb things they are saying. I'm not sure how many people have blocked me even though I barely tweet much.

I'm pretty sure social media is simply a system to reinforce echo chambers and tribalism.
To my layperson self, it seems like that would be a bad idea.

We know how to secure a reactor on land, but the sea is a big, dangerous place - and it's only a matter of time before some cost cutting idiot blows up a ship because they wanted a bigger bonus.

If everyone is on UBI, then who is getting the work done?

Seems to me there needs to be some more constraints on the idea to be realistic.

Maybe Strategic Basic Income? Eg: Executive branch gets coal miners on it for X years to let them retrain to work in another industry?

Or Universal Income Grant? Everyone gets X years no questions asked, you choose when to check them out. When you run out, sucks to be you.

I'd much rather have that last one as an option than UBI that's not going to motivate me to do anything by removing the natural urgency of scarcity. When everything is abundant and easy, why change?

Ask HN: Recommendations for investment contract services, SAFE, IRA Option
Hello HN,

I would like to invest in a bootstraped startup as a friends & family investor. I am looking to make a one time total investment <=50K.

In the past, I have been involved in early stage startups and paid a high price for legal advice, and would like to avoid costs & complexity. I would like to have a easy and low cost investment for both parties. I don't want to negotiate equity, and would like to defer to terms to later rounds. Based on my understating, this means a SAFE is a good option. Optimally, I would like to invest with my Roth IRA funds.

I have ~750k assets in stock and cash

My questions are:

1) Are there simple contract services to facilitate investments?

2) Ideally, I would like to invest from a self directed roth IRA, are there any contract services that support this?

3) How difficult or necessary is it to jump through qualified investor loopholes for a friends and family investment?
yeah dude, it's not possible to be happy with 228k salary. you bring shame to your entire bloodline.
The WASP elite are a completely historical group of people deeply involved with our Ivy League universities. The show is just a pop culture illustration of the point. (Though maybe not as popular as I thought.)

NASA was even beginning to study gas–core nuclear engines, where the nuclear fuel is a superheated gas or plasma. Some open–cycle designs where proposed, but NASA choose to study closed–cycle engines such as the nuclear lightbulb engine instead because they don’t leak fissile fuel into the propellant stream. Leaving aside the safety problems, it is uneconomical to lift a fuel into space only to have it escape the rocket unused.
You can already hide tweets containing phrases in your Twitter settings.
It actually says “Designed in California,” like it’s a shiney iThing.
They have to disclose when family members make the trades, as shown by the article you posted. So its not really clever when it still gets disclosed. And something like having a spouse do the trades certainly isn't either. That's easy for the SEC to check too.

But what evidence is there that any of that is trading on non public information? I just lists off some of the most popular companies out there to invest in. The trades include AmEx, Apple, PayPal, Disney, Slack, Tesla, Alphabet, Facebook, and Netflix. I would be surprised if they didn't trade in many of those companies.
Why was this down voted? You're not wrong. Regardless of whether we have a private or socialized healthcare system, we simply won't be able to afford to continue delivering high quality care to everyone with chronic conditions caused by bad dietary choices and sedentary lifestyle. The resources just aren't there so we will increasingly have to ration care.
Assuming you mean for shipping containers, I think one issue there is that sailboats tend to tilt a lot, which you can't do if you have a lot of containers on your deck. Might be possible to design container ships where all the shipping containers are inside the ship instead.

We already have nuclear submarines and aircraft carriers. The popular joke is that all military/navy/etc equipment is built by the lowest bidder.

On the bright side: if a nuclear reactor melts down in the middle of the ocean, there’s basically nothing around to be inconvenienced by that event.
I agree, but this isn't exactly a novel concept. Mass block lists have received media coverage in the past: https://slate.com/technology/2015/08/twitter-blocklists-they...
The source data for this is very bad, to the point that it's meaningless.

The data comes only from Yardi Matrix, which only includes multifamily rentals. That means the data excludes:

- single-family homes, townhomes, and condos

- ADUs

- smaller multifamily rentals (like an old mansion chopped up into apartments)

In my city, that means the data excludes at least 20% of rentals and would skew heavily toward newer (and more expensive) units in multifamily projects.

It also means that slower-growing cities, like St. Louis, will actually look less affordable than they really are.
Well, it definitely feels hotter. And those massive wildfires don't help.
Like what? It's become a semi-public endorsement in some ways, at this point -- Twitter frequently recommends tweets in the feed because someone you follow liked it.

If you use Twitter, you probably know that. So, liking a tweet is not very similar to up-or down-voting on Reddit or HN, which is private.
Even then, Twitter is finding more ways to shove "More Tweets" at you.

I remember back in the day you'd expand a tweet and just see it and the responses, but now you immediately get "more tweets" below it that have nothing to do with what you're reading.
After reading this comment, now I wish there was a way to create something analogous to Pandora or Spotify channels for Twitter. If you want to view news on ML research, change to your ML channel where you've followed relevant researchers and used this blocking tool for all else. Want to follow certain artists, change to your art station. Same for politics, sports, animals, etc.

I'm sure the way to do this for someone who wanted to is just to have multiple profiles but it'd be cool to have Twitter with a Spotify-like interface to use the site through different contexts with a single click.
A simple example of schizoposters are the people who think proprietary software is the devil, and is spying on them, and has backdoors, etc. They have a twisted, warped view of reality.
Antarctic activities I guess
There is never going to be a civilian-controlled ship with a nuclear reactor and nuclear fuel floating freely in international waters and docking at random ports. And no country's military is going to escort one around the world transporting consumer junk.

Regardless of cost, which itself makes this whole idea impossible, nuclear-powered container ships are simply not a possibility for this reason (and in fact the link you shared doesn't even mention them).

As for who is using Twitter [1]:

> the Twitterverse tends to skew younger and more Democratic than the general public. It also notes that the activity on Twitter is dominated by a small percentage — most users rarely tweet, while the most prolific 10 percent are responsible for 80 percent of tweets from U.S. adults.

> Pew says only around 22 percent of American adults today use Twitter, and they are representative of the broader population in some ways, but not in others.

Of an estimated 22% of US adults, 10% of those are generating 80% of the content. You're in a bubble of 2.2% of US adults (biased towards young Democrats), and then you want to block a significant number of those people too.

I suggest bursting this bubble. It's giving you a highly warped and unhealthy perspective of the world.

But that's not insider trading. You don't have inside information on that other company. You have a guess that their business is doing similar. When perhaps Twilio is doing so well because they took business from that competitor or something else that makes them stand out.
