Yes! I did this last year and plan to do it again this year.

I have a one-year-old single-member LLC for my plant h̶o̶b̶b̶y̶ very small business. I grow and sell fancy houseplants, unusual chili peppers, hopefully some mostly-dahlia bouquets later this summer, etc. I mainly sell on Etsy and eBay. Usually, forming and keeping up an LLC would probably be overkill for a little business like this, but starting in 2021, the state of California waived their usually ridiculous LLC formation fees and annual LLC fees, to help people start new small businesses after the pandemic. So I jumped on the wagon and put my h̶o̶b̶b̶y̶ business into a real LLC.

So now my husband and I have a bunch of I Bonds in our names/SSNs at TreasuryDirect, and each of our kids has a "minor" account linked to our account there, and they each have I Bonds in their names/SSNs -- and my little houseplant LLC has its own "entity" account at TreasuryDirect, based on its EIN, with me as the authorized representative who can buy and sell on behalf of the LLC. And so the LLC owns I Bonds in its own name, even though this is a single-member LLC, just me. It doesn't even merit getting its own tax return, it just reports its (my) teensy profits on my personal Schedule C, but the US Treasury treats it as a real separate entity from me even if the IRS does not.

Heck, I think the LLC as an entity now owns slightly more in I Bonds than it made in profit last year.

Now, if by some miracle the state of California should decide to continue its temporary pandemic policy to not charge residents to form and maintain LLC's, one could hypothetically set up many such new single-member LLCs, each with its own EIN of course, and each LLC could then set up its own TreasuryDirect account, and each account could buy I Bonds or other Treasuries...

Also noteworthy: you don't get an annual 1099 from TreasuryDirect unless you sell the bonds that calendar year. The interest only formally accrues to you upon a sale. And they're federally tax-free anyway.
Not a book, but MIT OCW has a class on Aircraft Systems Engineering 16.885J (focusing on the Space Shuttle) that is an excellent example of this. The class starts by looking at the requirements for the system, then examines every single subsystem on the Shuttle, and explains, in detail, why it was built the way it was. Almost always the answer is "because of the constraints placed on the system by the rest of the vehicle" + it has to be as light as possible.

I initially watched the lectures because of an interest in aerospace and it is a fascinating historical series in its own right with some incredible speakers. The lessons for systems engineers are numerous too.
That's a big assumption to make.

Over the previous two centuries, there have been ongoing rapid changes to our home, work and other environments, the way we live and the products we consume and are exposed to. As a result, the number of confounding factors may mask any deleterious effects of RF at a population level.

RF is clearly not acutely harmful at normally experienced levels. But are there lesser morbidities or long-term cancer risks which are directly due to RF, but are currently lost in the noise? We might not have seen it already, but it is worth questioning the basic assumption that it's completely safe, and identifying how, why and when it could cause harm.
Have you ever noticed how, during a power out, suddenly there's suddenly a lack of ... "pressure" (lack of a better word) ?

Context:

I've experienced this and had a friend who experienced this as well. He told me and there was no power out yet that I could have used to ask other people about it. When I was digging for this through memory, it came up that this was always the case for me, during every power out.

Addition:

Contrary to what many people believe, electrosensibility is a real thing and when my mobile is too close to my head, down/uploading at high speeds (a few Mbit) I feel insane pressure in my head and trying this on other parts of my body the skin starts to feel like it's burning.

I had a friend who didn't believe me, so I've offered him to do a test. He holds the phone, I close my eyes, he initiates a speedtest. I could tell him every time when he did. It baffled him.
I regularily have to print some specific pdf files that fail to print on my Epson printer. The workaround I found was to rasterize them with ImageMagick, because then they print. But so slow.... It is not an efficient approach.
Derek of Veritaseum made a video laying out why "clickbait-y" titles like that are necessary, and I feel like it makes a pretty good case.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2xHZPH5Sng

The tl;dw is that the most effective titles come right up against the edge of what an average target audience member would consider unacceptable on the axes of withheld information (to create a curiosity gap) and misleading sensationalism (to maximise the perceived importance of the topic); and you have to play the game of having effective titles because otherwise no one clicks on your video and it stops being recommended to people who would find it valuable.
I feel that this is an edge case that only applies to unencrypted radio transmission in Ukraine. Please get back on topic.

I found Fraidycat impossible to uninstall and wipe all data, except by restoring my Firefox profile from a backup.
The löve2D discord is very lövely :) It's THE place to be if you like to move pixels on the screen with a super clean API and a no frills, elegant language.
Double-think why? To be clear, my position is that blockchains don't allow (or make very difficult) enforcing ownership rights.

Also the idea that no one can steal or somehow gain control over someone else's crypto-currency balances has been thoroughly invalidated by experience, and therefore is a very silly point to make.
Used to be the same in the UK (was my first language), but now they've revamped computing education up and down the country I'd be very surprised if it's still used anywhere
> PS: I've never seen a player with a high bullet rating but a low blitz/rapid rating, so I'm not sure how to interpret a negative result either.

I don't have a "high rating" in bullet, but it's higher than my blitz/rapid ratings.

Why ? I'm impatient. When I wait for my opponent to play their move, I lose focus. When they take 30s to 1min to think about a move that seems obvious to me, it just makes me lose my train of thought.

Because of this, I play mostly only bullet games and puzzle rush. I'm at ~2400 in tactics on lichess, and ~1900 in bullet.
Long time iOS user and spare-time developer.

Switched from iPhone 13 to a Google Pixel running GrapheneOS for my phone and Samsung Fold 3 for mobile Internet.
I love the freedom to develop and sideload apps.

Syncthing for Android is amazing! (all my pictures/music/files are synchronized between devices without any cloud service, no longer Apple Music deciding to delete some of my music and replace it with less ).

Gadgetbridge is amazing too. No more accidental cloud sync ...

SwiftUI is a mess and for the small apps I write for myself Flutter/Dart makes much more sense, it was easier for me to understand, learn, and write quick apps.

Don't think I will ever go back to Apple's ecosystem.

The fold 3 is the future formfactor of phones for me (I don't need a tablet after I got one, I can read/annotate papers, watch lectures using vlc on the go ...). The only negative point is the battery life, yet I get over the day.
Bullet chess is also quite a different game, as the short move time opens up metagaming. Since it's so fast, you have to pre-move. Basically that's saying "if this move is valid when it's my turn, instantly play it", to save time.

But then people end up speculating on what an opponent will pre-move. Maybe you do something unexpected, so their premove doesn't work and they have to do another move and lose some. Maybe you can assume they have pre-moved something, so you can do something that's objectively a bad move, but get away with it since they can't punish you for it, having already decided on their move etc.

Quite a different game, but fun to watch.
Considering the sheer amount of toxic, dishonest, manipulative rage-fueled garbage that Twitter allows or algorithmically promotes every day on so many subjects, this specific ban reeks of sanctimonious hypocrisy to say the least.

All that aside from the simple fact that debate on such a complex subject should always be welcome (much like is the case with COVID and its vaccines, in which case it's possible to be against mandates while not arguing aginst the clinical value of vaccination in general), even if it includes points of view from deep within the denier camp. I don't doubt the science behind the reality of human-caused climate change, but even if some people do, rules like this will do nothing to make debate better, or spread better reasoning wider and further. They'll do the opposite, and only entrench bad ideas, rigid formalisms and ideological camps.

Furthermore, there is indeed plenty of room for debate on policies, specifics, ranges and other aspects of climate change without one sinking into full blown denial of established evidence and data.

I think you mean a small, not scary warning that occurs all of once, only the very first time you install an app. I install apps from fdroid on a regular basis, and there's just a prompt, with options to cancel or install (see [0] for a screenshot):

> Do you want to install an update to this existing application? Your existing data will not be lost.

Of course, you have to allow the third party app to initiate installs to begin with the very first time you try to install from that app, but that's not much worse, really (screenshots at [1]).

This seems pretty clear cut to me, and less scary than the disclaimers in open source software on Windows.

Now, if your app wants to modify system settings, access non-media files, etc...well, it's still not scary, really; for system settings changes, the OS will pop up a prompt similar to that for installing the app, while for accessibility and other permissions most apps will directly open the appropriate section of settings where all you have to do is approve the app. I think the warning on enabling a new keyboard is scarier, tbh.

> so people at the bottom let their "mother hen" boss take more responsibility. In strong engineering cultures like Sweden and Germany

I'm not sure if I understood it correctly or there was a typo, I am surprised because my experience is almost opposite.

my experience with Swedish and German multinationals is that it's all about consensus, to a point where the best decisions would be rejected if it lacks support, or where the off-ramp would be no decision (which is also a decision). this I found in stark contrast to French, Italian, Spanish, UK/US/Australian organizations, that tend to value the ego driven hero who saves the day. Also these former locations seem to do better when dealing with chaos as they know how to "think on their feed".

I'm curious from your experience would these companies be start-ups or medium sized firms, or could there be other reasons I'm missing that our experience is so different?
That doesn't make any sense, how I'm suppose to do my personal budgeting?

And by the way you can screenshot in a browser.
Have a Fold 3 and love it ... stopped using the iPhone 13 and switched (for phone/messaging a pixel 5 with graphenOS for the rest the fold 3).

Apple is no longer innovating for me in terms of interesting features in a phone. The camera is the only thing improving.
Yeah, for some reason common user@server wasn't good for you. Likely, because of an envious desire to have handles that look like @twitter

That's what NIH syndrome does to people.
I can't help but think of things like these in a future where there was some sort of gap or loss in human learning, maybe due to a mass-extinction event. It would be seen as a mysterious artifact from the ancients that has been singing forever. Religions and priests would arise to interpret every minor change or fluctuation in the notes since they are obviously a message from a being or being so eternal that they couldn't even slow their speech enough to address in one lifetime, let alone 20.
Is this “speak the truth” Elon is the same Elon who wants to stop a Twitter user from publishing his plane’s activities?

That was the total SAR for the entire cross section, not the specified tissue in question (2 orders of magnitude). Additionally, nearly everyone is in close proximity to multiple sources of EMF not their own phone solely.

Working in an office with ten other people that has installed a cell phone tower will likely provide substantial EMF (2 orders of magnitude). 5G bands require much higher density tower placement due to the reduced effective range of mm wave. These all have overlap and are not being tested in any way after installation.

There's clearly an effect. The question becomes how much of an effect are we currently living with and what are the limits that should be adopted.
I don't want to be the Hacker who as to go to Putin to explain that their nation-state sponsored hack was caught and failed because they were trying to make 10 grand on the side.
So, this won't help much against nation-state attacks.
> Another remarkable thing is how well the Vietnamese air force did against the Americans. They even had fighter aces and scored a lot of air-to-air kills!

It wasn't until the collapse of the Soviet Union in the 1990's that American aircraft became irrefutably better than Soviet aircraft, and a lot of that was better systems rather than better the aircraft themselves.

During the Korean war, the Mig15 dominated until the US sent their new F-86 Sabre fighter. The US Airforce claimed a 10:1 kill ratio of F-86 vs Mig15, but in reality it was more like 2:1:

> More recent research by Dorr, Lake and Thompson however has claimed the actual F-86 v MiG-15 kill ratio is closer to 2 to 1.[365] A recent RAND report[366] made reference to "recent scholarship" of F-86 v MiG-15 combat over Korea and concluded that the actual kill:loss ratio for the F-86 was 1.8 to 1 overall, and likely closer to 1.3 to 1 against MiGs flown by Soviet pilots[1]

During the Vietnam war the Mig17 was much better than the F105 fighter bomber. The Mig21 was probably the equal of the F4 Phantom, but the North Vietnamese got ambushed by F4s when they were expecting F105s and lost a lot of their airforce.

Outside Vietnam, most US vs Soviet aircraft fighting was in the various Israeli/Arab wars. But the Israelis were just much better trained pilots as their kill ratio in anything from Mirages to F16s shows.

I have been pushing Ubuntu on the server, even in places where CentOS was more popular and I was pushing it in the container world as well. When they started forcing snaps, I could no longer use it for containers, therefore I started abandoning it for servers as well in favour of Debian.

Snaps are horrible for containers because of their moving parts and I don't believe that they are any good for the server either because last time I checked: you could not have your private snap repository.

That’s much easier and less conclusive. The Catholic still confirms miracles and beatifies saints
Went into this article trying to understand why these books got rejected, came out with nothing but confusion. Right wing politics don't make sense to me, even when I'm actively trying to understand. Its critical to challenge yourself and face your anxiety to be able to try new methods for solving a math problem you find hard... Whats wrong with books motivating kids to do that?
I really like her. She actually talks about things the right way and approaches things at a fundamental level. She's very smart and reflective of new information and critical about any consensus, like everyone should be.

... and she's not shying away from letting everyone know.

"Gobbledygook". Heh.
Software doesn’t work in isolation. It’s like you’d expect to take a tape with binary recorded on it and then expect it to use it on Mars.

And Apple ecosystem is rapidly changing. OSes are changing every year. Phones get reiterated every year. 2 years of no updates mean 2 cycles behind. And Apple is very good with pushing updates on the users.

And to be technically correct - both software on the tape brought to Mars and removed games will work in the same hardware and running context exactly the same. But for Mars context made it not runnable anymore and for Apple we’re talking about taking it down from storefront (but all existing customers can still get it).

I’d recommend checking Emacs - Elisp is very stable and some code is working well for decades and yet with all the carefulness of the developers some thing breaks due to API changes.
I have 100up/50down (mbps, not giga) at home, and its the fastest I can afford. If money is not a concern then it can go up to 1gb, but not in my area yet. I can barely saturate my line unless I'm donwloading something big.

10gig is insane.
It’s exhausting to be seen and presentable all the time.

Yes, it was a misnomer because ironically I didn't have the name for that system and couldn't find it.

The (direct) democracy where the people make all the decisions was the original Greek one. However only a few people could vote, adult male citizens. It worked because of the relatively small size (a few tenths of thousands) and physical proximity of the people that could vote. What we have now is representative democracy.

About the Corporatist economic system I quote the whole section

> The Fascist regime created a corporatist economic system in 1925 with creation of the Palazzo Vidoni Pact, in which the Italian employers' association Confindustria and Fascist trade unions agreed to recognize each other as the sole representatives of Italy's employers and employees, excluding non-Fascist trade unions. The Fascist regime first created a Ministry of Corporations that organized the Italian economy into 22 sectoral corporations, banned workers' strikes and lock-outs and in 1927 created the Charter of Labour, which established workers' rights and duties and created labour tribunals to arbitrate employer-employee disputes. In practice, the sectoral corporations exercised little independence and were largely controlled by the regime, and the employee organizations were rarely led by employees themselves, but instead by appointed Fascist party members.

This is what one expects any dictatorship would do: have a say on what corporations do and prevent unions from becoming kind of political parties in contrast with the government.

By the way, Confindustria still exists with that name in Italy. It's sometimes simplistically defined as the union of corporations and unsurprisingly the interests of big corporations usually prevail on the interests of small ones.
There will always be that edge case where the low-code is not sufficient, that's where the problems start.
> So to put it another way, trusted third parties can also be a threat to private property.

Of course, a corrupt government is a threat to private property, but it's also true that a non-corrupt government (or some other form of authority) is necessary to enforce property rights. Crypto-currency enthusiasts mistakenly believe that by preventing any authority from interfering with the blockchain they eliminate the threat to private property. Instead, by doing that, they make property rights impossible.
This is why meetings, and especially online classes, should be held in Minecraft, as it's very easy to see where people are looking.
perl 5 was great but it broke down as soon as you needed a depth or complexity of data structure. The number of times you had to man perldsc ... every single one had a different syntax for declaration and dereferencing ... AoAoHoHoAARGH!
>"Easily transported"? Are you nuts? It has far less chemical compatibility than LNG and is wildly more dangerous to people. It gets even worse if the ammonia has any impurities.

Why would there be impurities in ammonia generated from solar powered water electrolysis? Where are they coming from?

Why would clean NH3 react strongly with carbon-managanese steel pressure vessel used in LNG transport?

>I doubt existing emissions control equipment would work.

Is emissions control installed on large marine diesels and stationary generation in Japan?

>In modern direct injection vehicles

Bzzzt. Wrong. This article is about coal power.
Back in the days you would just lose all your message history anyway with text / AOL / MSN / facebook messenger / others… so I just started accepting it as a fact of life that you can’t keep your messaging history forever.
It's not a truth, it's a perspective.

Netflix has a ton of content and the vast majority of it has not a hint of 'woke'.

I think what's happening is that there is definitely a bit of an SJW direction in some content, and so maybe people's radars are a bit 'too attuned' to it, and so they're more cynical or prone to be triggered. And some shows just go hard in that direction. But few.

Netflix is definitely not dying because of their DEI initiatives in content.

I wish they could nude a bit and be a bit more fair without directly interceding into content (FYI Netflix will send back scripts and demand more specific kinds of DEI), and doing the new Hollywood 'mandates' of representation everywhere which is a bit of a 'sledghammer' of a policy orientation.
Pro shell scripts:

- I often encounter machines without Python or Go. I never encounter machines without Bash.

- Python and Go will probably change faster than Bash. So the maintenance cost of scripts in Python or Go will be higher.

- When you figured out something tricky on the command line, you can paste it into a Bash script verbatim.

- Bash is the perfect glue language. If the task at hand is to glue together some commands, nothing beats Bash.
What do you feel destroys “liberty” about planning and documentation?

That hasn’t been my experience (in general; had some bad companies for sure).
I’m not sure. All current IRC users will die eventually so unless it becomes cool and attractive for new generations, it may be insignificant in a few decades.
I’ve forgotten to mention that for the first time in their history Southern European countries have enjoyed the German inflation (which is no inflation) for decades.
At that level of generality you need to remember that light from a lamp is also an EM field.

Radiant heat from a fireplace is infrared - also an EM field.

We know that UV light, which starts around 400 nm, causes damage beyond its heating effects, so yes, EM fields in general can be a problem.

But 835 MHz is about 30 cm wavelength - far larger than the size of the cells, much less the molecules in the cell.

With 25+ years of research, including epidemiological studies of people working with or living near high-power transmitters, there's very little evidence that RF causes problems beyond simple heating.
What makes you say that? PoS coins have been running without issues for almost as long as PoW coins and as far as I know there’s been no attacks. On the other hand there’s been many 51% attacks on PoW coins.
