> Just go look at the balance sheet of a real bank. You'll see it all balances very nicely

The first rule of tautology club is the first rule of tautology club. By definition double entry bookkeeping always balances no matter what the operations are. This example in no way refutes the parent claim. Furthermore, the banking system must be reasoned about in aggregate. The entire banking system in the USA is a creature of Congress, and every bank is a member of the Federal Reserve system that Congress created. While a given bank may fail due to the arcane shenanigans of the banking guild, the system in aggregate cannot fail unless Congress itself fails.

My grandparents made dandelion wine and potato wine. My dad tried making it a few years back for a trip down memory lane, and they really were not the sort of thing that you would want to drink much of- given how cheap everything is nowadays, it's more for the novelty.
How does this thread imply this is because of Musk?
That's not how statistical significance works. It's perfectly possible for a small variation on a large number to be statistically significant.

The question would be more whether the variance on a given day is statistically significant compared to the variance on any other day, or the average variance.

> Stocks generally perform better than cash in inflationary environments

I would challenge you to prove this statement with data. The S&P got crushed in both the 40s and the 70s. I mean setting the bar at returning better than -4% is absurdly low and major spans in both of those periods would have failed.

Especially when you weigh the opportunity cost of other better inflation hedge trades you could make if you were compensated in cash, I don't think this is particularly wise advice.

Especially in a recession that probably comes with a growth to value rotation, tech stocks are about the last place you want to be. (not counting FAANGetc here)

I don't see this. I have thousands of long-lived instances - full VMs, not containers, running in our hardware.

If they start "going bad", something is wrong. That's a signal I wouldn't want to ignore.

It has happened - once an HBA in a storage node was causing occasional corruption, another time due to a communication failure people were building things with the wrong version of something which had a memory leak and would eventually summon the OOM killer. There have been other issues.

"Have you tried turning it off and back on again" is still a terrible system management strategy.

> You have to win to earn money in esports right?

depends - if your team pays you a salary, then no. But if you never win, either the team can't get sponsorship (since noone will watch a team that doesn't win), or the team fires you (and get a better player).

Prize money is only one source of income, and i suspect not even the major one for most teams. It's sponsorships and ads.
It isn't only money. With OWL, it is clear that players have left $100k+ salaries because of the mismanagement of some franchises. In LCS, you hear about teams playing other games in scrim time, it isn't serious. In OWL, the schedule was punishing and you could see that players on some teams weren't happy (and btw, what Seagull doesn't say...if you are a streamer, being in OWL is negative cost publicity...you are getting paid and you build a fanbase...the reason why people like him left was: Fuel is/was chaotically managed, and the league placed massive limitations on your time...now OWL competitive matches get less views than players they cut from their teams get when they stream, genius product management).

Games aren't cyclical. The money from some games has dried up, but the top competitive games are the same every year. And the money in those games is fairly good (LCS isn't the largest LoL league, average pay is close to half a mil). Consumers want to watch pros play the big games: LoL, CS:GO, DOTA2, etc.

But I think the gap between the 1st and 10th best player isn't as large as it is in some conventional sports (and the games are far less luck-based), so teams are quite happy to rinse players when they have a bad game and they don't tend to come back (it isn't related to age or even skill atrophy, it is related to the pressure to always win...you see the same thing in soccer where teams take short-term decisions for decades and get nowhere, regardless of how many resources they throw at it i.e. Manchester United).

Ironically, I think this has damaged the product. With OWL, they had an okay product but it was totally mismanaged at multiple levels. They tried to create franchises, but teams trade players furiously (so you had a London that was all Korean players, and which played in the Asia time zone during Covid). Most people watch to see their favourite player, the vast majority of the big names have retired or quit...so the teams will keep furiously trading, and no-one will watch because their favourite player isn't playing anymore (we will see what happens with OW2, but I doubt things improve...the product is just sterile). Esports leagues have a very skewed understanding of why people watch.
Yes. Why would I trust all my files to this? Needs to be a lot further along. why is "Rust" a feature? I could care less the implementation language as long as the thing works as advertised.
Javascript UI? dealbreaker
In aggregate no. Why? Because the people who withdraw it pretty quickly pay it to someone else, and that someone else deposits it just as quickly. Very few people want to have north of $10,000 in cash on hand. So sure when I buy a house in SoCal for $2.4 million I withdraw that loan about as soon as it's created, but the prior owner of the house I just bought is going to deposit that check drawing on that newly created loan as fast as he possibly can.
counter point: I reach for jq probably twice a year. It's a slog every time, but way way less work than diving into the terse syntax and understanding the inner workings of jq. A good abstraction is the border of my understanding, a leaky abstraction means I have to have mastery of the internals to be successful. jq is a leaky abstraction.

But window.event is deprecated as you can see here:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/even...

It's been around since IE 4 and is the "current event being handled by the site's code" so it's event inside the scope of an event handler and undefined anywhere else. That's definitely an anti-feature lol, maybe IE 4 didn't pass the event object into an event handler's synthetic function as an argument and window.event was a bodge to allow for <div onclick="alert(event.button)"> ?

Actually, I bet back then the code in the event handler attribute was just wrapped in eval() and executed, so you would need to have the event object in the global scope to be usable in the eval'd code.
Glad you like it! I spent months designing the Caddy config and how the JSON structure would look/work.

The docs pages took longer to make than the core of Caddy 2 did, so I'm glad you like those too and find them helpful. That performance fix was a breath of fresh air for me too.

Anyway, nice to hear from another happy JSON consumer. I know several large companies using the JSON exclusively as well.

CSGO is getting wrecked by Valorant. It’s basically dead in the water in the US and will be out internationally soon too.

Physicists have this nice saying: "Shut up and calculate".

Bayesianism, frequentism, who cares? "All models are wrong, but some are useful".

Bayesianism would be a footnote in history if it weren't for Markov Chain Monte Carlo, which allows you to perform estimations when Maximum Likelihood fails.

All those people who wax poetic about priors and expert knowledge and stuff, just keep away from them. You don't want to mix with that crowd.
That's interesting. Because I thought this move is precisely to help the rest of musk's enterprises, I mean, why else would a billionaire buy a communication platform? Though the article brings up good points, conflicts with China and him getting "distracted". But to this second point, it sort of links musk's personality to the success of Tesla and in this regard, wouldn't it be a good thing that he is now in charge of twitter?

Finally it's not as though what markets say is a good or a bad move is the truth and I think often times they are very sensible to momentarily panic/hype. There is so much that can go wrong or that can go well. But to me what's clear is that buying twitter was not a "this is a very good profitable business" decision.

To finalise, in Chile at least, it is not uncommon for billionaires to buy local mass media (tv, newspapers, radio) and most of the time these are businesses that lose money. But in reality, the ability to moderate and shape public discourse is incredibly more important than direct revenue.
The story is about whether Gellman was a spy like many in the intelligence community including Clapper claim he is. It's about his works with Snowden's documents, not Snowden himself.

for a fair comparison, you'd have to divide the 7mil take with the total revenue of the entire sport to see a % take of the total pie.

A top esports player might take a higher % of the total pie, even though the absolute number is smaller.
Yea if the performance is under expectation then it is not good.

If the employee is meeting expectations or exceeding expectations then it is ok?
I don't, unfortunately. It looks like their products use Mali 400 MP2 GPUs, which seems to have support via Lima. I had several boards with Mali-T628's, and while they work, I ran into headaches a lot a 6+ years ago, like issues with GPU accelerated video, browsing in Chromium and desktop compositing. I've heard from developers that work on those boards that the GPU support is much better than it was a half decade ago, though.

Personally, I won't be buying more ARM SoCs unless they start supporting SBSA and have mainline kernel support for all of their peripherals. As it stands, the only hardware that I'm aware of that has full mainline support for everything, including GPUs, are boards with Intel iGPUs or AMD APUs.

It seems like the devaluing of women is an oft-exaggerated historical trope. Women have always been valuable to society, after all, the men don't have babies.

We'd see a lot of it as sexist today, but when manual labor was pretty much the only option, you could take a look at any couple and have a pretty good idea which one would be better for working in the fields.

I don't think that's the motivation. Elites don't mind if some bright poor kids get a good education-- all the better: more advanced education means that there is a larger hiring pool to fill complex jobs at the elite's companies.

When you're highly privileged it's extremely easy to imagine that most things are positive sum and not zero sum competition because when you're wrong and your cooperation was actually a disadvantage it's still no big deal for you.

Instead, I think it's just cheap feel good measures, virtue signaling, and not wanting to take the costs/risks of bucking a fad. If you don't know whats good or bad, well cheer for the popular change and pat yourself on the back. If you do know that the initiative is bad, speaking against it may get you called a racist-- better to say nothing and relocate to where your kids will get a good education.

Someone sufficiently wealthy never has to worry about a known bad policy resulting in a poor education for their kids-- they can always apply money to the problem, one way or another.
Then the people who coast should be fired?

This! I don't doubt that Bolt still requires a lot of work and honestly the 4 day work week is probably more marketing speak than anything real. But the world (at remote companies at least) has drastically changed and there is no reason to expect everyone to always have the same hours. Work when you need to to get your stuff done. Be around at pre-decided hours when you need to collaborate. But the rest is up to you.
Hopefully some light is shed on what's behind the numbers. This is as good a guess as any at this point. I mean, sure could be actual people rage-quitting Twitter, but it may also be interested parties cutting their losses.
That was because he had said he doubted Russia would invade Ukraine. I doubt he feels differently about seeking asylum, considering the alternative.

This is partly covered in the GitHub Readme of TruffleRuby:

TruffleRuby can run Rails and is compatible with many gems, including C extensions. However, TruffleRuby is not 100% compatible with MRI 3.0 yet. Please report any compatibility issues you might find. TruffleRuby passes around 97% of ruby/spec, more than any other alternative Ruby implementation.

TruffleRuby might not be fast yet on Rails applications and large programs. Notably, large programs currently take a long time to warmup on TruffleRuby and this is something the TruffleRuby team is currently working on. Large programs often involve more performance-critical code so there is a higher chance of hitting an area of TruffleRuby which has not been optimized yet.

However, I think this is slightly outdated, because I vaguely remember a talk from one of the rubycons about Rails being slightly faster with truffle. I can't say for sure why it's not been widely picked up yet; maybe other players are looking forward to JITs within Ruby itself, or don't like the two tier model of GraalVM (you can run it for free, but it also has an enterprise version with additional performance improvements.)

> Fully agree on the typechecking. That's probably part of why LISP is so under-represented in commercial software projects.

Like it's why Python, Javascript, PHP and Ruby are underepresented, and why Visual Basic was so hugely unpopular in the 1990's, having had virtually no developer mind share or installed base.
I appreciate the idea, but I disagree. It's not that you should never put down, it's that you should do it sparingly.

Look, the real degradation has been in "modern" computing. Our devices have literally gotten worse in terms of empowering the users to do what they wish. And that's stupid.
For me it's that there is no tech involved in a mechanical watch. No screen. No buttons. No perfectly kept time. If I don't wind it, it dies.

The watch I'm wearing on my wrist is virtually indistinguishable from one created over a hundred years ago. I think that's just neat.
I'm back, to smell and reply to my own toot today. It's always better fermented. I want to talk about the kanji I used earlier, "屁". Like many movements about what should be done with regard to social media platform policies, it's composed out of radicals.

In the case of 屁, that would be this radical, 尸, whose on yomi is shi, and 比 which is hi. The kun yomi are longer and not derived from the shared Japanese heritage with China, who also use this kanji for the word "fart". The Japanese word is "Onara", the chinese word is "Pi" which seems a lot more onomatopoeic.

尸 in this case has a meaning of "corpse" or human remains, and is very close to the kanji for "door", I almost mistook it for just being that. 比 has to do with comparisons, also apparently has something to do with race. So the image I get through this kanji when I connect it to "tooting" on social media, is as follows: "The corpse of someone who could have been somebody opens up the door of its sphincter, and releases a gaseous comparison about race."
You may not be wrong, in fact you are very likely right, but this is not an argument.

The larger an org gets the more likely it is to do weird things to mitigate organizational difficulties be them budget, human or otherwise.

Those types of things rarely show up in postmortems for obvious reasons.

Prompt text:

Dear Strong Bad,

Results:

Dear Strong Bad,

What do you think of the situation in Iran? I’m worried about what’s going on there. How do you think we should deal with it?

(I was inspired to write this question after re-watching one of your scenes on The Sopranos. You were talking about how you’d rather be at the movies than in jail. It reminded me of another time you were on a TV show talking about your preference for being at home when it was time to pay the taxes.)

(What was the name of that show?)

Anyway, do you think we should be talking about this? And, how? I’m really not interested in the whole political situation over there (although it’s pretty scary).

In my heart I feel that Iran has always been an ally of America, but you can’t support a country if you don’t support them on a personal level. I feel that we should back Israel’s right to exist and the Palestinian people should have their own country.

In order to be friends with someone, you have to understand that they are different and you can’t just like them just because they’re your friend. Do you understand?

Let’s look at some recent events there.

Recently, Iran has been trying to blow up some things. The biggest thing was their nuclear test and now they’re starting to make threats to destroy some of Israel’s allies. This whole thing has caused a lot of problems.

The best thing we can do is to take down this country. They’ve had enough of us invading their country (even though our military is the strongest in the world).

How do you feel about that? Do you feel that the U.S. should support them if they have the same ideas as us?

What do you think about the state of the economy there?
