I don’t really have a problem with this - as long as it’s not tracking people - I don’t think it’s unreasonable to know where people are clicking most.

That's what I would expect.

Would you expect that if you overwrite a package-provided binary (eg. /bin/ls) with another version, that they'd be able to tell that?

Knowing if packaged version is vulnerable is a good first step.
As others said, the fact is that scumbags exist everywhere, and Brazil is certainly not exempted from this. Another fact is that Brazil is obscenely huge. The country is almost the size of Europe, and the number of online Brazilians nowadays is probably larger than some European countries' entire population. So, given that the ratio of scumbags is probably and roughly the same for every country in the world, the chance of anyone running into a scumbag Brazilian online is naturally larger than average, which tricks our biased brains into believing that "whoa, Brazil must be filled with scumbags".

And of course, the notoriously pervasive "stray dog syndrome", a sentiment that every Brazilian thing is inferior than its imported counterpart (including manufactured goods, culture and whatnot), and which is hammered into the unconscious mind of 11 out of 10 Brazilians from a very young age (myself included), only helps strength this confirmation bias.
This comment misses the mark. The fact that many of these conversations do generate liability is not the point, the point is that a good manager can - with their own agency - avoid those missteps in their own discussions.

I agree with the bias, still there isn't a chicken and egg problem in most cases: You do the research before you take the short position, you only publish the research afterwards. If you are a credible investor, the short position follows from the research, not the other way around.

What is relative purchasing power?

In an economy where supply of labor is decreasing quicker than automation can replace it due to decreasing proportion of younger working people to older non working people, I would say being able to procure labor is a bigger problem than imports. And that will get harder if your cash flow buys less and less.
The term "gringo" is not offensive in Colombia. It's an extremely casual term that just means non-Latino, usually specifically for North Americans.
That may be, but the other side of this is that global poverty has never been lower [1]. I think both absolute and relative poverty are important to consider, but generally the direction the world is going with respect to poverty is good. The example questions they ask reflect a pretty superficial and biased view in my opinion:

“We need larger income differences as incentives for individual effort” and “Incomes should be made more equal."

Versus perhaps the neoliberal framing (also biased) of "we should incentive people to take risks" and "fewer people living in poverty is more important than income distribution".

While a free market economy requires government involvement, one must admit it requires less than an economy that tries to ensure equality. I also suspect the more you leave an economy to its own devices, the more unequal it becomes.
Overt fascism tends to scare people away. Theyre all well aware of its image problem as they dogwhistle for far right authoritarian ultranationalism.

Typically they do remain a disorganized mess (as could be expected for an ideology popular mainly with opportunists and losers) but every so often some rich person feels threatened or ambitious and throws money at them and organizes them into a militia or something. Thats when they transition from an unpleasant crowd to a genuinely terrifying threat.

Neoliberals are likewise loath to actually call themselves neoliberals while they argue for privatising a publicly owned utility.

When it comes to untouched areas on Earth, does anyone ever ponder whether we should explore them?

What if we took a different approach—fenced them off and left as is, untouchable by anyone for any purpose? What is the cost of unknown to science species or two, compared to environmental impact of scouring every inch of land to find something new?
I think the idea is that if the user had aliased *count and the string they would have got undefined behavior.

So the compiler can assume they didn't and is allowed to optimize away the loop with memset.
Reminds me of the old Soviet saying, "We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us". But there seems to be a rise in popularity of the idea that meritocracy and competition is bad and everyone should be paid the same. Killing incentive seems like a bad economic policy to me that's already been tried.
Well, the only thing that really changes is technology. We don't need 30% of the population doing agricultural labour as we've automated most of it. We can transport goods long distances, giving us access to things no dreamed of 100 years ago. We can communicate instantly across the globe. These are all incredible achievements.

What is the case is that inequality may not go away, but if one's own standard of living is increasing with relatively little effort, then that's the main thing.
You should maybe consider spending more time with people, any people.
I love how this site rendered the full article but magically transformed itself to hide everything but the first paragraph, the words literally disappearing under my eyes. And then the rest of the page is "enjoy more great articles from Wired". Like, hello, I didn't even enjoy one!?

This is the neoliberal ideology they are talking about, yes :)
> Free markets will always remain the most fair system of resource allocation.

First, I think there's a lot of different angles from which you can challenge that claim. In a truly "free market", things like nepotism, bribery, and inherited wealth still exist (and by definition they'd exist in higher levels than in regulated markets). Does some random millionaire trust fund kid in a free market really create value? Is it fair that Bezos is a billionaire when low-paid workers are the ones actually creating value at Amazon? I would argue that without some restriction, free markets almost guarantee _unfair_ resource allocation. Like without antitrust regulation, for example, it would become a winner-take-all game where a single megacorporation could absorb all competitors and value labour however the hell they want.

That is all besides the point though. I would argue that the "most fair system of resource allocation" is not a desirable outcome at all. If a true meritocracy were possible, swaths of people would just starve to death.

Even better, a majority of Japan's government debt is owed to the Japanese Government. Through the Japan Central Bank.

The remainder is owed to Japanese citizens and corporations. The remainder no doubt held by other central banks.

Meanwhile the prefectures and towns are not allowed to carry net debt. Granted various accounting tricks and lots of weirdness exists. Including a scheme where the federal government skips paying towns their transfer payments and instead tells them to borrow "on the federal government's behalf". This "favour debt" is then not reported as proper debt as the federal government has promised to pay the missing transfer payments, sometime, in the future.
I don't know. I also feel that I work more than let's say half my colleagues at whichever company. Mostly because I really really really enjoy what I'm doing. That being said, I'm not really sure how their salary impacts my life. I negociate to what I want for what I do and that's that.
Wait until they find out about Fullstory.
Does this mean that you're rendering at 1fps, 10fps or something?

Is it an artificial limit you put on rendering?

Do you have button animations at 30 FPS?
To be fair, this could be Texas or Louisiana in a year or two.

This is incoherent, industrial categories are a convenience, not a natural component of economic activity.

Is automation an industry? Because an automation innovator might be built on the assumption that it can influence another industry.

Can a manufacturer of one thing decide that they have the internal capacity to manufacture something at a lower cost than the existing competitors and then not share that methodology with the existing competitors?
This is also why defining terms is so important in a conversation. "Robber baron" and "job creator" refer to roughly the same set of people, but have wildly different connotations. Whoever sets the definitions gets to set the framing of the entire conversation that follows. Sometimes, this means that even using the name of a group lean a conversation one way or another. (e.g. The term "Objectivism", Ayn Rand's name for her own philosophy, is accepting that there is something objective about it.)

To paraphrase Fred Brooks: "Show me your arguments and conceal your definitions, and I shall continue to be mystified. Show me your definitions, and I usually won't need your arguments; they'll be obvious." (s/flowcharts/arguments/ and s/tables/definitions/ from the original.)

Hence the investments, as the companies selling the things with inflated prices... will have inflated their prices :)
> A patent covers a way of doing things. An essential patent covers the way of doing things.

You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. An essential patent is declared essential to a standard (of which there are many). Take 3GPP, companies like Qualcomm, Apple, Ericsson, Huawei, etc. all spend hundreds of million of $ developing each release of the 3GPP cellular standard. During this development process often times patents are filed (based on the companies contributions). As part of joining 3GPP you have to agree to license this IP on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND) terms. The patents are almost never obvious, as you can see from the lengthy debate over each feature and all of the associated proposals at each 3GPP meeting.
Don't forget that Konami also had the "International Superstar Soccer Pro" games which were named "World Soccer: Winning Eleven '97" in Japan and "Goal Storm '97" in the US.
I would go further and define “efficient.” They are, in western society, efficient at accumulating private capital in the hands of capitalists. No claim is made by anyone to the contrary.
it doesn't work too well for the employees if there aren't alternative jobs or a social security system for them to go to. They're then at the mercy of the employers.

at least without unions. Henry Ford's anti-union tactics were extreme and quite violent.
Disagree with what exactly? Nobody claimed that there aren’t any people here who primarily associate "FIFA" with the game.
> I've found algorithmic (I prefer this to "automatic") differentiation

Isn't every differentiation algorithmic? It's typically integration where you often use intuition in substitution, unless you're using something like Risch's algorithm, but one learns to differentiate in school from the very beginning with what can only be described as an algorithm: at every step, there's a clear procedure to decide on what to do next, and when to terminate.
It's true that Germany is overall very sensitive with such topics, but it's not like antisemitism or discrimination in general died out. SuSE especially comes from a region where people are more conservative. And IT is a business which has a high probability to encounter problematic people regarding social, politics or religious topics; at least in Germany.

That does not mean this story is true, or the interpretation of circumstances is correct, but it's not impossible that some casual discrimination was/is at work.

But frankly spoken, the story reads as if the writer has some serious problems too. This person seems to read far more intention in circumstance that are likely unrelated. Like that blocking from the new CEO, which reads more like the natural reaction to some nut head on social media coming with strange accusations.

Maybe some neutral third party should have written the story.
Am I seeing this correctly, or is this newsletter lacking an actual email newsletter (and maybe RSS feed)?

Please, the phrasing is obviously meant to make the reader jump to conclusions.

The headline wasn't "El Salvador expected to default as Hacker News readers bicker about wording", even if that would have been equally true (and relevant?).
> the belief that choice is more important than standards

More like that on average, competition creates the highest standards.
I was thinking that too. When you give out your number to friends and family, your number gets added to their contact list, meaning your number is potentially public knowledge from there on in, since your family could have compromised devices or some random Flashlight app scraped the contact list for malicious reasons.
The real reason for the risk of default is that El Salvador was counting on a loan from the IMF and the IMF refused to make a loan to El Salvador while Bitcoin is legal currency. Despite his misadventures with Bitcoin, President Bukele is wildly popular in El Salvador.
This boils down to the "not your keys not your coin" mantra that's often repeated in the cryptocurrency community. It is possible to move your coins to your own wallet and manage them on your own. This comes with risks (eg. lost keys). Keeping them on exchange comes with different risks.

Anyone holding significant amount of cryptocurrencies should consider the risks of each choice, make an informed decision, and live with the risk that entails. If that's too scary, then you probably shouldn't be in this market.
USB 1 and 2 were relatively simple protocols, and had very low energy profile (I think max power on the original USB 2.0 spec is 2.5W (5V, 0.5A) [0]. Same with bandwidth.

Back in USB 2.0 days, a single port could consume at most 480 Mbps in bandwidth, so let's say that your typical USB 2.0 hub consumed at most 2Gbps. That's very easy to accomplish in terms of I/O [1] (1 PCIe Gen 1.0 x1 port).

Now imagine 4 USB 3.2 or eventually 4.0 full speed ports: that is 20 Gbps per port, and Thunderbolt 3 has 40 Gbps per port. That means a 4-port HUB would need to have I/O capabilities of 80 or 160 Gbps. That is even beyond PCI express 4.0 w/ 4 lanes (8GB/s). A single Thunderbolt 3 port can consume theoretically half as much as the best and fastest NVMe SSDs (around 7 GB/s).

Basically, what I am trying to say is that it is getting harder and harder to achieve with USB 3.2 (and eventually 4.0) what was easy to do with USB 2.0. Our computers are just not getting fast enough to support all these I/O speeds. That's why most PCIe extension cards only offer a single USB-C port. A standard PCIe Gen 4.0 1x port cannot even support that at top speed!.

Take a look at this card [2]: a single USB port doesn't even support 20Gbps speeds, and half the ports share the same 10Gbps bandwidth. And this card requires a PCIe 3.0 x4 port.

And this is just bandwith. In terms of power, it is pretty much the same issue, Power Delivery can consume 100W at most. That's more power than the normal draw of a typical "ultrabook" laptop (around 60-65W). Now imagine 4 of these, 400W. That's a standard desktop PC PSU requirement.

tl;dr it is just not possible to support this much I/O speed and power draw with cheap consumer technology. That's why good USB 3.2 and Thunderbolt 3 hubs cost much, much more than USB 2.0 ever did. Also why they are much more complicated devices.

Sorry, but no: Calling the advance to Kyiv (fascist Russia clearly wanted to take the capital by storm), the slaughtering and war crimes in the suburbs and the hasty retreat with thousands of fallen Russian orcs a "feint" is Russian propaganda and way beyond reality.
You can deny reality, still it happens. Reality doesn't care about fascist (paid?) propaganda.

Southern European states, such as Greece are already bankrupt--they are just in the European Union's debtor's prison.

There is a fundamental schism in the EU, and that is they share a currency, without a common fiscal policy. It's a problem that will never go away, until member states cede power to set budgets, pensions, etc. to the EU, which I can't see happening.

It's crazy that there are still people out there who will defend custodial wallets like this. Not you wallet, not your coins. It's as simple as that. These companies trying to take crypto mainstream are getting so much stuff wrong, it's no wonder they're losing customers and share value.
Much cheaper if using the Lightning network, which El Salvador is.
