The "make the money back" part is what prevents it.

Musk has 100 billion of TSLA say.

He mortgages it to buy TWTR. Now he has 100 billion of TSLA, -40 billion loan against it, and 40 billion of TWTR. He could mortgage TWTR and buy something else, but it would have to be smaller, because the banks won't loan 100% of the value of the thing.

Or he'd have to make another $40 billion and pay off the first loan to mortgage it again.

Think of it as trying to use mortgage properties in monopoly to continue buying other properties.
Yes...but, the deer population is out of control and demand greater reintroduction of predators.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S03781...

The issue is that deer effect forest regeneration, and there needs to be an increase in seedlings to keep the habitat healthy. Deer definitely effect oak trees, and so the forest makeup in places like CT is shifting to more maple and less oak. As a result it makes it harder for other species that depend on mast trees for food.

The solution isn't for us to just exterminate deer, but we need to be careful about that population growing out of control.

LOL. Few years ago I was considering using VFD and motor from a washing machine for one of my commercial projects. Unfortunately the replacement part supplier had very limited stock so I went on to sourcing the motors and implementing controller myself which turned out to be more expensive.
It's a similar situation, so the confusion is not surprising. I had to bounce back and forth a couple times myself because it didn't quite seem to line up. Thought maybe one was an updated version of the other with the false names revealed as actual people, but it turns out the situations are different. One of the kids is a different age, and in one case the kids were going to the park and back and in the other one the older kid was walking home from school playing ball in his own yard waiting for his parents to arrive.

I know several people working as engineers for government contractors and they all make well over the top of the GS Pay Scale, and that's before other benefits like profit sharing.

Even if Congress corrected for that, they'd still be locked into slow moving pay raises, and they'd probably become a political target at some point, when some anti-spending congressperson begins harping on how there are so many federal employees make a quarter million dollars a year.

Being a military contractor, for better or worse, inoculates you from a lot of politics. So, yes, the government could pay competitively, but I would be leery about accepting such a position.
In my mind, The Expanse did a fantastic job with their UIs. One of the things that stood out for me was the integration between handheld and stationary devices -- for example, finding some information via personal mobile, then sharing it with others by "swiping" it onto a large stationary screen.

You can see that a lot of thought went into how the interactions would look like -- a lot more than usual, I'd say. Or even.. a lot more than in many actual software products! It feels like they considered it as more than just eye candy. The way information is shared / communication happens in that envisioned world seems very realistic and complete.

As someone who often designs user interfaces, I hold this show as one of the recent high-water marks for How To Do Things Well.
Oh I see, from looking at some examples it's the one without the bar on the bottom? I use the the more French/European '1' to distinguish from a lowercase 'l' (so that C1 does not look like Cl = chlorine).

If his agenda is polar opposite of the current agenda, I can't wait to see it. I would love to see him turn Twitter into a free-for-all where all LEGAL under US law material is allowed. Where YOU as an individual can mute/block things you do not want to see. It's incredible this idea today is considered "dangerous".
I think darkmode provides a variety of practical advantages in the VFX context.

* It would seem to be easier to transition a dark mode UI between solid and translucent/transparent/hologram elements. I think the moment you have transparent/holography elements, you're almost immediately sucked into a dark-mode type UI.

* Dark-mode displays are just going to be... darker on average. I imagine it would simplify lighting in a lot of scenarios. Probably also gives you more flexibility when framing/creating reflection shots

* I feel like in film, big expanses of white / light grey carry much stronger connotations than big expanses of black / dark grey. Large expanses of black can be interpreted as absence, and somewhat natural. We are familiar with deep pits of shadow. We are familiar with the night sky. While big expanses of white / light grey is interpreted as sterile or unnatural, or at least "unusual". Think of the first training scenario in the Matrix (the white expanse with tv and two chairs). Think of God's office in Bruce Almighty.

> - EFI "executables" are actually windows executables, who still start with the 'MZ' header from MS-DOS. The real mode code for displaying "This program cannot be run in DOS mode" is, depending on the toolchain, sometimes still included. Also legacy from Microsoft.

No. They are not Windows executables. They won’t run under Windows at all for multiple reasons. They are PE executables.

PE is the executable format developed for Windows, and yes, it is backwards compatible with MZ executables, so it has the now-confusing MZ header even though that doesn’t make sense under EFI. It also has some other weird details kind of hardcoded in, like some of the data directories, many of which don’t make that much sense under EFI. Worse, it’s a little weird to parse, with many things being deduced by using known structure sizes combined with offsets specified in fields.

However, PE as a format is totally fine. Good, even. In its purest form, it really doesn’t have that much baggage. It flat out has some advantages over ELF whose symbol table non-sense is notoriously complicated. Not so under PE: explicit table of exports, explicit table of imports. The imports go to specific modules. Symbols don’t conflict. It’s got cruft, but it’s very simple to write a parser or loader, and I’ve done so a number of times before. With PE the runtime linking is handled by whatever OS is running, be it EFI or Windows; none of the INTERP stuff is needed.

Frankly, I’d be OK with using PE on Linux too. When I was a kid, I toyed around with making a binfmt for PE. Of course I didn’t finish (most notably, I never figured out how to do linking, since the ELF binfmt didn’t really do that) but it’s quite straightforward to get the actual loader going.

As for the rest of the grievances… As far as I know, FAT and GPT are only required to be supported by EFI, not required to be used. Some EFI implementations support other filesystems for the ESP (like Apple with HFS+,) and I’ve not used one that won’t happily use an ESP on an MBR.

The issue I have for your reasoning is that you have no idea that if you stoped taking them things would be any different. This is the purpose of these studies. They find, on the whole, that it is not worth taking antidepressants.
The TLSA shareholders will be more concerned with TWTR bleeding Musk's attention vs bleeding his shares; he's not giving up the shares or control of TSLA.

It's also very likely that if Musk takes TWTR private he then privately sells portions of it to people who would like to be in on it with him. SpaceX is private, for example.

The key is that TSLA is not buying TWTR (which stranger things have happened), it's Musk.
Besides that, the subtitle of the article on Wikipedia is literally “ Violent insurrection after the 2020 presidential election”.

> The hardest thing for me to learn about it, with which I still struggle, is keeping the arm posture correct.

It’s great that you recognize this handicap as dealing with it sooner rather than later is a good; bad posture is indeed harder to correct later as we know. The first measure you can take is course correcting yourself over shorter intervals i.e.Move The Paper towards yourself with no shame, even during the length of a line, as often as need be. Even Louis Madarasz did it, so don’t hesitate. But I think your fix becomes a habit, it becomes a non-issue later.

That's exactly it.

In the park I mention above, the street next to it is 25 MPH, has sharrows, and also has a very wide pretty much unused paved shoulder as well. Except for ignorance, there's no reason for eBike riders to be using the only-about-two-person-wide sidewalk.

In the past the speed came with skill which developed through experience. Now that speed is often at the press of a throttle (or setting the assist to high) there are more folks at high speeds without the developed skill or etiquette.

Heck, at one of the local parks that I work with (volunteer cycling advocate who develops trail systems), they are trying to figure out what to do about eBikes on their paved walking/running/biking loop which parallels the park road. In the past the mixed use was fine, as most riders on the loop were going slow; families/kids/whatever and coexisted just fine with walkers. The faster riders would be out on the road, going roughly the same speed as the cars.

Now that eBikes are becoming popular, the less-experienced folks are sticking to the path, but at higher speeds, causing issues with the walkers. Walkers being clipped by bikes is not unheardof on these paths in the past, but it's becoming much more frequent now that the walker-rider speed delta has increased.

(For reference, ~8-12 MPH was common for human-powered riders on these paths. eBikes roughly double the average speed.)
“Nobody [does thing] anymore” is a common euphemism for “very few people [do thing] now, compared to in the past”. The author is correct about this with respect to cursive, at least in the US. I think you know this as well, as you acknowledge your outlier status.

It seems I was mistaken, I replied on your other comment as well. It's been a few years since I fixed that specific model. The burned PCB was by a manufacturer called Minisel, and I think variants of Minisel control units are used in many cheap washing machines like Beko, Bauknecht, Elin, Whirpool and probably other. Maybe that's why I confused the brands. Ebay ist still full of these units [1].

I haven't dug into the filings, but I wonder how much of that is "actual losses" and how much is "accounting losses to avoid tax".
Crowdsourcing for Abstract Screening?
Abstract screening is a part of the systematic review process where researchers have to look through article abstracts to decide whether an article should be included or excluded from the final review.

I feel that crowdsourcing might be a good fit for such a process. Curious to hear what you think, especially what could go wrong with this approach.

Here's a quick page that explains my idea further if you're interested:

Matt Levine went into it yesterday why funding the Twitter purchase might be hard for Elon Musk.

https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2022-04-20/elon-c...

The long and short of it is that the people who would lend him money may not trust him due to his previous (and erratic) statements.
Yeah but the fx guys certainly didn't have the js or css chops to make most of that work.

I think the real correct solution would have been a Lottie animation, but there was no time to train the fx guys.
You're correct; I withdraw my remark.
Doubly so when the interest on these loans is tax deductible. This is why he and most other wealthy people pay 0 taxes - he never has a taxable event, like selling stock. He just uses his stock as collateral to take out loans and writes off the interest.
So much on this site and online more generally comes across as criticism. It wasn't meant as such. I just thought it should be minded.
better how?

what experience does musk have to make twitter better and why is this expensive unique so that twitter itself cannot make the changes?

twitter back in the day was awesome until they turned hostile to the 3rd party developers.
You can hardly call IBM 8513 VGA as having a color space. It just has colors - meaning the color space it's kind of arbitrary, two different monitor models could have different primary colors (as in slightly different reds/blues/greens).

I hope we eventually figure out how to replace the internal SSD in the Mac Studio. I was able to replace it in my 2013 iMac and it extended the life another four+ years.
As I understand it, it's not. The whole thing about fiduciary duty is a bit of a meme. The board can argue that they believe that Musk will run Twitter into the ground and in the long term not selling is a better financial move, and due to the Business Judgement Rule, the court is likely to side with them (whether or not they're actually right).
I think automating nethack is sufficient reason for this tool.

The road adjacent to the path I detail above is 25 MPH, has sharrows, is very low traffic, and has wide, paved, unused shoulders. It's great mixed bike/car infrastructure.

And even if there was better cycling infrastructure, we'd still need a way to keep people from riding bikes on the sidewalks. Without enforcement, no amount of infrastructure will stop that.
As someone who lives just outside of 95, I assure you, the bugs are doing just fine.

If you called in to Amex using the number on the card for certain things like fraud, for a while they would then text you a code in a message that says:

“Amex Fraud Free Msg: Your requested code is: xxxx. We won't call to ask for it. Don't share it. Call ######## if you didn't request it. Reply STOP to opt out.”

You wouldn’t be the requesting this text and code, the person on the phone would. And it says don’t share it. Maybe I was hoodwinked but it seemed really legit although in principle I refused to give it.

It seems so scammy, but I’d called the number on the back of the card.

I’m joking, but I’m kind of not… We will see who is actually behind the package, but MUFG and friends have a habit of financing foreigners’ adventures while keeping Japanese companies under-capitalized and starving. (For those not aware, MUFG owns a large part of Morgan Stanley, hence the photo above.)
Mathematically, sure. But good luck explaining to a farmer in Iowa why you're paying a 28-year old $250k/yr to "do computers" for the VA. And that's ignoring the legal hurdles to paying some government employees $250k/yr and continuing to pay everyone else around them the same garbage GS wages.
There's also a huge pile of chord charts published online for the jazz standards and the Great American Songbook, that would be interesting to analyze.
A EFI partition is mostly read-only, so I don't think that's a particularly large problem?

> I would rather use Ext4 everywhere for everything. Is the problem preventing wide adoption of Ext4 GPL?

The BSDs don't support ext{2,3,4} particularly well, and Linux doesn't support FFS/UFS particularly well. I mean, there's support for these things, but it's far from complete or perfect and it's taken a long time.

It's just a fair amount of effort to implement filesystems well, and there's very little tolerance for errors. Ext4 isn't spectacularly complicated, but it's not exactly a simple FS either. I think that has more to do with lack of support than anything else: lots of effort for not all that much practical benefit.

>False information continues to grow in our “post-truth” society not only because people believe lies, but also because we often give lying a moral pass.

I don't think I even agree that we are a "post-truth" society. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-truth

What is even being said here? It's not some 'we used to only ever tell the truth'. It's not that... people have lied since before recorded history. It's not 'we used to have some truth in society but we have none anymore' that's easily disproven.

Brexit and 2016 elections are very interesting though from the wikipage.They are both examples where public opinion via polling vs secret vote differed greatly. Or better yet, coverage by media greatly differed from actual results.

I then look at their experiment from OP and it's lying on resumes? Which I find is the equivalent of lying to pollsters.

It's not that we are post-truth. They just found a couple examples where lying is pretty well an expectation?

Let me propose that we are not post-truth but rather we are living in the consequences of cancel culture. It's not safe to tell the truth in cases like brexit and trump.

It's important to see why as well. If you are a trump supporter, good chance you're not going to be cancelled by your neighbour. It's the media and pollsters who do this cancelling.
