Very interesting and very good design! Which framework does the website use?
I essentially paid my way through college by turning SMB's spreadsheets into CRUD webapps + some tiny reporting. There is a huge, huge market for this if you wanted to trade some of the time you would spend writing code with marketing, cold calls, chasing down clients for invoicing, and other non-tech stuff.
Only if there's a corresponding push { ..., lr }, but in this case there isn't. I'd expect bx lr here.
The real geopolitics behind this is that Russia is trying to curb NATO influence. So this war is really about hurting NATO. A Russian loss helps NATO and a victory hurts NATO, but the war can be ended if either side makes the requisite concessions. But for unaffiliated parties they don’t necessarily take a pro-NATO stance so anti-war or anti-violence simply means “somebody please give in” rather than “NATO please win.” Asking India, or even China for this matter, to make sacrifices for the benefit of NATO is an unrealistic position to take.
A service similar to what you’re proposing called Smartmove already exists. The renter pays them for the application + credit/background/etc checks. You don’t have to handle payment or take SSNs. Unfortunately pass/fail doesn’t work due to nuance in income/credit/rental history.
There are a lot of licensed real estate agents in the SF Bay Area. Very few of them get the lucrative sales listings. There are plenty of extra agents with time to work for renters if they wanted to. But most renters don't seem to want that service, and most lessors aren't accustomed to working with agents.
So you're saying this could only properly be done with Rust. Hear, hear.
you could probably do it for cheaper using a larger pool of preemptable instances. I think you may end up saving money buying your own blades (21x4 Intel Xeon 32-core CPUs = ~$210K, I'm assuming motherboards + power + ram is less than 3x that.) I didn't factor in AMD's 128-core Epyc processors or Xeon Phis because I don't know enough about their suitability.. do you need AVX-512 for this kind of thing?

> Democracies have stable, predictable rule of law.

Really? Russia? Venezuela? They are democracies. Also, do you realize that many of the world's poorest and unstable countries are democracies? India has been a democracy for nearly 80 years. Nobody wants to do business with them. Everyone wants to do business with china. Go figure.

> Do you want to invest in a country where a dictator could simply decide that he is going take your assets?

You mean like how britain, EU, etc are taking russia's assets? Or how we stole japanese american assets during ww2? Or mexican american assets in the 1930s. Or the native american's lands since the very beginning?

There's nothing inherently good, stable or lawful about democracies. If you didn't have blinders on, you'd be shocked at how terrible democracies have been. The country with the most poverty in the world is a democracy - india. The countries that have waged the most wars around the world in the past 20 years have been democracies - US, Russia, EU, etc. The countries that have committed the greatest genocides have been democracies.

What a nation needs is competent leaders, not democracies. Instead of blinding accepting propaganda, just look at the reality.

EMF is a DC voltage present even in an open circuit, when no current is drawn. EMF comes from a cell/battery or DC generator. EMF is the cause; potential difference is the effect.
Look, I definitely understand the purpose of the PPP program - and that was to get money flowing into the economy so that basic economics occurred - the flow of money in exchange for goods and services. And I definitely don't deem lawyers and accountants unworthy... but when you see real estate agents do 100M in sales last year and they drive a brand new S-Class, and oh, look, that agent took the max 48K PPP loan and had it forgiven, well, that's just not the spirit of the program.

When you get a chance, just poke around your local zip code and check out the people and entities that got money. It will be eye opening for sure. I'll bet you money you'll see a bunch of opaque shell LLCs all around you that got 10-20k here and there. You'll also see your local bakery or pizza joint that probably got life saving funding to keep people employed.

I guess for me it all goes back to the spirit of the program, and the depths that some humans will go to be greedy and take the "FU I've Got Mine" approach to life.
I’m wondering if the shift away from offices increases demand for (nicer) homes. If this is a permanent shift (and a driving factor as opposed to e.g. interest rates), prices will stay high.
> you see the kind of poverty you never encounter first-hand in developed-world cities like those in Western Europe, North America, Japan, Singapore, etc.

This is unfortunately very true. Living in most Indian cities requires one to build a character that can withstand living amidst such destitution. Millions of people do it everyday though. You kind of have to mentally block it out.
Absolutely. Kids can be physically more tiring because you're carrying them often, they create a lot more household cleanup kind of work and sometimes keep you up at night. But playing with them, reading them a book etc is such an amazing way to relax and disconnect from work. Really makes me instantly relaxed and happy just doing something simple like putting her to bed and reading a story together.
Transport (Tor) or somehow not using your protocol of choice was never the problem. The blocker to solving centralization has always been that people who browse HN suck at making things usable.

Building a usable frontend first is never going to get you excited about a project, but the only way we are going to get mass adoption of decentralization is to make it as simple as TikTok or Chrome.

I'm also sorry it is just "another bitcoin project." If you happen to have $20 million kicking around to fund the project so they don't have to depend on crypto, by all means reach out to them. Alternatively, use that big brain of yours to figure out a better way of funding a company that doesn't make money off its users.

You're right that the author is defending these "authoritarian" tendencies, but they're still presented as fact is what bugs me. Still, maybe I overshot with my criticism. I must admit that I feel a bit grumpy today. Just one last thing, voluntary team play does not conflict with individualism.
Despite being a union member and president of the SAG, Reagan is well known for firing the air traffic controllers. In California, he was against the UFW's grape boycott. As governor, he vetoed the legislation which would have given the farm workers the right to organize.

Reagan was unquestionably anti-labor despite perversely being inducted into the Labor Hall of Fame by Trump's Labor Secretary.

Carter was the beginning of none of this.
I would imagine half of them were but that's not the problem. The problem is that plenty of people who took that money then to mitigate risk will use it now to lawyer up against these claims and make no mistake they won.
Inflation is ~8%. My mortgage is fixed 3.5%. New mortgages are 5%. I have no incentive to move period as don’t many others. Supply is constrained. Everyone renting is getting squeezed and wants to buy. New housing in desirable places locked up by NIMBYs and gov regulations. Housing prices will keep rising.
wow didn't know there was a poll feature now.

yes, the days of low interest rate is over.

anyone leveraged and on the hook for mortgage at today's value without locking in their rates are going to quickly find out the law of compounding interest
AFAICT you're living in that world. Just take a look at github. As of 2 years ago there were 128 million repos

https://towardsdatascience.com/githubs-path-to-128m-public-r...

And maybe it's just me but AFAIK the vast majority of repos are personal projects done for fun, not for profit. Even if that number is inflated because of forks I'd just wager the majority of original repos are projects for fun, not profit
Dude was in MIT, and made a ton of money in Tesla. I dont think moving anywhere is a problem fir this guy.
Great point! I think with captchas, some humans might be able to identify obviously made up facts and very poor sentence structure to tag a text as low quality. But I don't think you'd be able to give a reliable assessment on whether a text was AI generated or not. Especially if it's a random group of people (unfamiliar with modern content generation) filling out the captchas.
If the metaverse version 1 looks so much like minecraft, why is it so much a big deal?
In Europe YES, but the powers that be (NIMBYs, banks and governments), will do absolutely anything to keep it inflated as long as possible.

> Before you bought the house, were you renting previously at 1800/mo?

I was renting a 2-bedroom, 1 bath, 800 sq foot apartment for $900/month which would have been going up to $1,100/month if I had signed a new lease instead of buying the house.

The house is 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, 1850 sq feet.

> In any case, where do you live? 615 is so cheap that I suspect the economics here aren't comparable to my situation. Maybe I'll move! Haha

Suburbs just outside of Portland, OR.
I have wondered if there is a chance inflation will wane due to cost efficiencies related to WFH. One cost saving is from lower real estate expenses. If a chunk of employees are made/revealed to be redundant, that could be another cost saving.

That doesn’t guarantee that companies will lower prices — they may choose to try for higher profits. But it reduces the pressure for them to increase prices YOY in order to account for inflation.
The sources are cited though, you don't have to trust what is written in the Wikipedia article. You can verify by reading them instead.

My company (an F500) has made the inverse process: before COVID-19 there was just 2 levels of management between me and the C-level executive. Now I have 4 level of management.
I don't think it's bad to have middle management, if they cover you from the shit coming from the top. If they don't, they are just unuseful.
We're also in an era where groundbreaking research is seldom done by lone unicorn researchers expanding on a stroke of genius.

The Nobel Prizes are still awarded to individuals but often only because that's how Nobel decided the prize had to work over a century ago. Prizes are most of the time awarded to the heads of research groups who's discoveries are made of the backs of dozens of researchers and graduates often working 80 hour weeks, and in some cases hundreds or thousands of technicians.

The only prize that regularly meets the lone genius researcher trope is when the physics prize is awarded to a theorist (partially since it can't go to the hundreds of physicists responsible for verifying the theory).

Newton could see so far from standing on the shoulders of giants, the modern researcher can see so far from standing on the pyramid of overworked untenured researchers.
Depends on where you are.

Judging by price-to-buy versus income, if you are in Damascus, Syria, then definitely. If you are in San Antonio, no.

Judging by ROI (rent vs. own), Seoul, South Korea, and Lagos, Nigeria are the other two extremes.

Its a hit or miss in India. It isn't that the quality is vastly superior. You still get a produce from far away - and the fish is usually delivered on ice slab. The soil isn't that arable as you might expect, as the biggest chunk is loamy & alluvial soil of North India is exclusively wheat & sugarcane. Monsanto despite all its evils does a good job in Midwest. No similar equivalent in India unfortunately. Plus mechanisation rate is low because of land fragmentation. These are collective factors that make yield (qual + quant) a variable thing.

My dad grew his own vegetables. The only guaranteed fresh ones I ate :) Fun fact: Best mangoes generally are from Philippines. The Cebuano variety. Alfonso is mighty overrated.
Yes, but that doesn’t come close to supporting the war. On the other hand, they’ve provided considerable humanitarian assistance to Ukraine. For better or worse, that’s just the situation — economic and geopolitical — India is in. They don’t have the luxury of looking at things black and white like most western nations.
What would copyright infringement look like?

Composerily[1] on YouTube is well known for recreating popular songs (example [2]) or making songs in the style of a particular artist (example [3]). Unfortunately the full version of the recreations generally can't be included on YouTube because it would trigger the copyright infringement algorithm. Sometimes Composerily changes the song just enough to avoid the algorithm detecting the similarities, and sometimes Compersily will just provide short samples of the recreation. Through these videos you do get a better sense of how Western pop music is composed and why the choice of a chord progression isn't going to be deemed copyright infringement on its own.

Maybe they already know that and just don’t like being spammed on GitHub by some hypocrites.

I’d be really mad too if I lived in Russia under that lunatic and couldn’t even code in peace without being harassed..

Users on GitHub are probably among the least likely to buy into Putins propaganda anyway so I can’t see the utility in this besides some self image and ego inflation for the people behind this.

And guess what from the perspective of pro-Russian users this is also harassment by “the west” and will only further their sympathy for Mr. P…
Germany continues to buy oil from Russia too, but I never see them being criticized for it. They bought oil for decades from Russia, arguably funding the current invasion, yet that was held up as a shining example of how interdepenence via trading can maintain peace between nations.

There's always a double standard at play. For EU, buying oil is a necessary evil. For India, it's "supporting" the enemy.
I was facing the same dilemma in January, I settled on Infomaniak and I've been quite happy so far. They support DKIM/DMARC, catchall, domain aliases and are reasonably priced (18EUR yearly for 5 addresses). They have their own webmail that I find really pleasant to use. Unfortunately no mobile application for the moment, but it should be coming this year.

Part of what would make it a bubble is what it means for the bubble to pop. I see housing as creating a very strong headwind for many (most?) people, but I don't necessarily see a bubble.

Similar to student debt. It's a strong headwind, but not everything that's bad in economics is a "bubble".
Er, no.

What you found is that the internet is kind of a poor way to form meaningful connections with people. It's a great way to form a high quantity of low-quality relationships with people. In this way it's kind of like fame. Now that everybody has a persona on the internet, it's like they're micro-famous. (Or actually the persona is famous, but I digress.) Which means they have a micro- version of the same fame-related problems that actually-famous celebs have, among which are... a high number of largely meaningless connections to people who mean nothing to you. What you've done might be some kind of Pareto optimization where the 80% that provide 20% of the value, are suddenly not in the picture taking up your time and effort.

I’m sorry, but you sound like a terrible, patronizing advisor; anyone who views their students as “cogs in the machine” is someone I would not want to work with.

Yes, professors work hard, but let’s not kid ourselves that they’re involved with the nitty-gritty research work. You just sound like someone who’s bitter at young people.
those media you consume are a reflection of society. koreans use honorifics with strangers until they signal they wish to communicate casually and usually its completely subjective. somebody will only differ by mere months and demand you use honorifics (bullying). somebody will differ by few years and do not enforce it. its completely subjective and adds to the stress of interaction between strangers.
As an IC, having an immediate manager that coordinates what my team works on and shields us from getting whipsawed by ad-hoc requests is really valuable, remote work or not. I may be a little biased, because all of my managers so far have been very technically competent. But having somebody above me who is both politically and technically savvy is a godsend. During times when my team has had no manager, everything was more chaotic and nothing went as smoothly.

> I gather that running your own e-mail server is horrible unless you want to spend your life running the server.

Running a mail server is not hard at all. Setting it up is the annoying part as it requires you to know a bit about how email works and how all the different services are tied together. If you are a technical person then you would probably be able to research how email works and set it up in a couple of days.

Email is not exactly something new with a lot of innovation, so once it's set up you'll likely be good for quite some time(until the OS is EOL).
I had a similar problem that I solved with goquery and otto. You can use goquery to traverse the DOM and otto to execute the script fragment. Then just grab the data from otto's VM.

Your scraping being slow and using Chrome might be a blessing in disguise though. If you aren't careful you can get detected as a bot and banned from the site.

They're not doing whatever they want, because then they'd utilize slave labor with no safety regards (and some actually continue to do so too, just not in the developed world - which just proves the point that they'd jump on it as soon as could)

They're however doing whatever they can get away with, which is arguably way too much
> Obviously completely optimal solutions on some of them could take hours, if not years to come up with.

Yep. Once you know the common patterns then most of the easy questions are pretty easy to solve optimally in 10-15 minutes. A lot of the hard questions seem impossible unless you’ve seen the problem before and I’m not sure what an effective strategy for those is.

Russia and Venezuela simply never developed a civil society in the modern sense. Same for many poor and unstable countries. They're still likely far better off than similarly vulnerable autocracies - I'd much rather be in one of those flawed democracies than, say, in North Korea. 'Competent leaders' are not born, they're made. Democracy, liberal/bourgeois values, civil society, proper rewards for merit... All of these things ultimately foster competence.
I'm not interested in holding a discussion with someone who denies the Banqiao dam burst deaths, and wants to take unsourced blog statistics by a single dude over the World Health Organization and the United Nations

I am not interested in someone who says "here's a list of numbers, the United Nations must be wrong, the causes are a matter of polemics."

Polemics are generic archetypal verbal attacks. The United Nation's health statistics do not get interpreted in terms of verbal attacks.

You make vague references to "Russian academicians" and claim they said things, but don't provide evidence. The Russian academics still haven't admitted Kyshtym happened.

There is a point at which if someone listens to clowns but not the world's authorities, they and everything they believe should just be discarded without further commentary

The science is clear: arguing with an anti-vaxxer or a flat earther just drives them further into their delusion. The common sense is also clear: the regular person does not get satisfaction, but rather more frustration, at the end. The current position of psychology is that the reason anti-vaxxers exist is that they have genuinely mis-identified their addiction to argument as being seen as knowledgeable, and that even when legitimate experts show up with evidence, their unwillingness to budge convinces them that they're even righter. They really think this makes them look good.

Psychology currently frames this as the result of severe self doubt, as "you need to argue with me so that I can show myself that I could win."

Of course I'm not going to waste my time arguing with someone who denies basic facts, and refers vaguely to evidence they haven't provided. Nobody should. That's how you get flat earthers.

Deniers don't deserve argument, and trying to talk to them like normal people hurts them mentally.
