"The problem I have with some free speech purists is that they give me a feeling that they are persons who are more often than not unaffected by speech"

There's a mirror image problem though: people in favor of regulations on speech have little reason to fear that their speech will be limited, at least in the short term. Regulators are politically-correct, so if you are politically-correct, what's the problem? (Obviously: bad things can become politically-correct, too.)

Yes, we all know Trump knows how to weasel his way out of anything.
A lot of comments here and elsewhere focus on how breast milk is better than formula. Many women know that. So let me clearly lay out the math of why formula is critical to so many babies in the US:

Babies start eating solid food at 6 months. Women only get 3 months off (unpaid) after delivering a child. So in the remaining 3 months that the baby cannot have solid food, should the woman feed her baby exclusively breast milk or get fired for not returning to work?

Of course, there are also women who cannot breast feed, don't produce enough milk to exclusively breast feed, or have to return to work sooner than 3 months because bills have to be paid. So while educating people that breast milk is healthy is important. It's really cruel and stupid that for many women the choice is: feed your baby exclusively breast milk for 6 months and get fired, or don't feed your baby exclusively breast milk for 6 months and keep your job. Only the cushiest jobs have 6 months maternity leave and lactation rooms, most other jobs do not.

The house trance in SV is very disturbing to me. I saw a lot- and I mean a lot of people move in with their families from the midwest to work at FAAMG, and then bought a house in sunnyvale which they absolutely HATE. From the high prices to the schools filled with grinds, they just want to move back to the midwest and live near the rest of their families in a place where land is cheap and people don't try to compete so hard in high school. Perpetual misery.
Brute force costs grow exponentially (well, combinatorically) with the number of terms. It's viable for the small cases, but not for the larger cases.

That is exactly why it's called a "paradox". We all recognize that we cannot allow tyrannical actors to act unchallenged, but the act of challenging their behavior itself often can be seen as a form of tyranny.

This is why we need an entire system for interpreting and enforcing the laws in a nuanced and careful way. The world is too complex for a simple system of rules to work without consideration to the context of each individual circumstance.

Generally, I agree with what you're saying, though. Sometimes it does feel like all paths lead to a consolidation of power, no matter how well intentioned things began.
There's a "secure path" option in sudoers that you can use to add additional directories to the path that is searched when sudo is invoked.

Most examples will include the standard user path plus /sbin and /usr/sbin but you can add any directories you want to the option.
> cynical or paranoid

Language can change everything.

A few years ago in a digital self-defence class someone picked me up
on choices of words.

Paranoia and cynicism are pre-Snowden words from an era when the
nature of online computers was unclear to most people. Since 2013
(that's almost a decade ago now) we've been in a world where it's
taken for granted by anyone with an IQ of 2 or more digits, that
digital devices and many services are hostile. Cynicism and paranoia
are no longer strictly possible.

I was grateful to the young woman who pointed out that adopting
negative psychological language empowers the attacker and places the
victim on a back-foot. Cynicism and paranoia are no longer accusations
you need to hear, nor feelings you need to own.

Since then I have tried to couch digital self-defence language more
carefully in terms of self-respect, dignity, informed consent, and
ultimately in terms of ethics and morality that reasonable and
informed people expect. By "reasonable", we do not mean bullied and
browbeaten into learned helplessness by threats of compulsion, total
lack of real choice, subterfuge and deception.
To some extent it does. The person moving money is paying transaction fee in ETH creating demand for ETH. Additionally, a part of that transaction fee is burned (permanently deleted) creating a deflationary effect on all other ETH.

I'm sorry you had such a terrible experience! As others are saying, an interview is as much about them deciding if you are a good fit for them, as you deciding if they are a good fit for you. Interviews (even bad ones) are an opportunity to hone your skills, but if it's soul crushing sitting there, it's not like it's your job to stay!

As for the rudeness of the interviewer, I will add that sometimes great developers have terrible people skills, and sometimes those people get put on interview committees. One obnoxious person doesn't necessarily dictate the culture of an entire company. Go with your gut. If the position seems otherwise exceptional and it's just one rude person, consider giving them another shot, and if not, walk--either figuratively, or literally out of the interview.
> First off, you can have competition and cooperation.

Given existence of an impartial referee, fair conditions and no metagame.

Capitalism is not just competition, it is literally a fight for one's life. An unfair one, given corruption and marketing metagames.

Even your sports example breaks down in seconds. The team won't get funded unless it brings attention to feed marketing companies that funnel money into the team. You can absolute metagame European football with financial injection (heated lawn to practice off-season, buying better players, trainer, doping and so on).
This strongly depends on the company. In high growth industries this is absolutely true, in low-growth industries/companies its somewhat debatable. I suspect that this is why software salaries were tightly correlated with tech growth for the last 3 decades. The 90s, and 2010s were great times to be a software engineer - but average salaries were more than cut in half during the oughts.
> If my work was significantly taxed above $100K, I'd stop earning more at that point because work is very stressful to me and I'm not going to do it if I don't get the benefit (now I earn slightly less than $100k, but also live and work in Europe). Everybody would lose - I'd pay less taxes overall.

Perfect. You get a less stressful life. And you working less creates job opportunities for others.

Other people win just by you (and other high earners) earning less. They don't have to earn more. Their money is worth more if there is less total money in circulation.
This looks amazing!

I see cloudflare people are on this post, any chance to compar D1 vs postgres in terms of DB features?

Would be really helpful to get a comparison like cockroachDB did here https://www.cockroachlabs.com/docs/stable/postgresql-compati...

Or even better, a general sql compatibility matrix like this https://www.cockroachlabs.com/docs/stable/sql-feature-suppor...

> Neoliberalism, which also calls for greater privatization and deregulation, has become the predominant global socioeconomic framework since the late 1970s.

Why should the results be of any surprise. If these are the rules, those most able to play the game are going to benefit most from those rules.

I believe that's the intention. Fair enough.

The failure comes from greed.

It not the collecting of resources per se. It's the lack of fair and equitable sharing. Oddly enough, for the most part, the proles idolize, if not worship the winners (as opposed to challenging their greed and demanding fairness).
Also, correct me if I'm wrong (long time ago I used iOS), but even if Apple removes the application from the App Store doesn't mean it'll be deleted from your phone automatically. At least I remembered that I was still able to use some apps even after they were deleted from the App Store some years ago.

The criticism isn't just directed at Apple to be fair, but I think it is apparent that vendors don't want users to do any of that. This thinking is prevalent in many industries and it was just meant as a jab towards users that defend such practices with ridiculous excuses.

Sure, it would be users that need to demand it and they do not. So they get less capable products in the end.
I mean with over 250 billion in assets managed, they should be able to get bought out and / or attract investors instead of go bankrupt. I'm sure there's rich folk who have an interest in owning an established crypto exchange.

Although on the other, with that much in assets, there may also be people with an interest in having it go bankrupt - or just to spread these rumors, to further help crash the price of crypto.
agree, for me mostly for some reason its the fear of not finding another job...

But well if you are depressed at your job... how bad can it get?

And can really the money you make from a job make back for the depression? My personal opinion is NO!
In the first place, this is a thought-terminating cliché. Second, nothing prevents a politician from saying one thing to the voters and then doing something completely different once in office. (Especially at the federal level where there is no recall or recourse). The only accountability provided surrounds reelection.

The overall economy inflation numbers are completely meaningless when cost of education, housing and healthcare has been skyrocketing for more than a decade, maybe even longer.

The average worker, especially those with families, have seen their costs inflate much, much higher than 11% per year for quite some time.

I'm sort-of, kind-of aware of the issue but what surprised me was how std::string pulls this into picture here. Is this because of what str[i] gets compiled into when str is a basic_string of chars? That seems non-obvious to me because I'm just accustomed to dealing with C++ strings as fairly opaque entities. If they somehow expose to the compiler that you're really manipulating characters via pointers, I can understand how this complicates things.

The problem is that the disclosure of risks is written in such a way that captures the existing situatio nand makes it hard for a valid crypto firm to not post... exactly this.

> The system is rigged and other truthy arguments are all but standard operating procedure for whatever crytpo idea someone comes up with.

But remember that applies to both sides of the coin - the SEC disclosure of risks claiming there's a huge risk of monetary loss _is_ true, but it's also unavoidable as (to my understanding) there isn't currently a way for coinbase to be FDIC insured.

> Those arguments doesn't make mean we shouldn't be skeptical.

You should be incredibly skeptical, but you should be informed of what you're skeptical about.
> * Easily 90% of listings contain some kind of misrepresentation. Probably half it’s something egregious. Airbnb doesn’t seem to care.

This. We stayed in Philly and got a nice looking AirBNB. What wasnt mentioned was that the nice pictures were of the owner's kitchen that is shared with their family room and that the room reserved for us in a 'private apt' was just a room off to the side with a glass door and a camera pointed at the door.
Any category for "basic but secure"?
I think it’s long overdue. While SQLite certainly has its limitations, it’s a winner in many categories. Even for sites with mild traffic using ordinary SQLite in PHP like a decade ago, it was always nice to use for its simplicity and the performance was totally acceptable. In comparison, the memory usage of typical relational database servers was high enough to make it hard to fit on a single lowend VPS with the same data and traffic. (I found myself tuning MySQL, but I never needed to tune SQLite.)
If I'd get a nickel every time someone said this, I'd have tons of cash. But, seems that no matter how much people lose in cryptocurrencies, the ecosystem carries on. It might dip for a while, but sooner or later it comes back up. And then it falls... And then...

> I know this is probably not all due to the language, but at least one bit of it has to be

No, there’s a cultural problem. C++ gives you the power and flexibility to really optimize for space or performance but rarely is that worth it early in development. Instead, just start by simply writing the code. Good design will give you affordances for appropriate optimization later.

And if your “embedded” system is so massive it can run Linux then you could end up with better code density by using Python source and including the interpreter!
I stayed in literally hundreds of hotels and that never happened to me.

As a candidate you should always approach from a position of strength. Assuming that is the case, you can always call them out, politely, and explain that behaviour makes you feel like they are not a good fit for you and see their reaction. You are interviewing them too after all.
The fees should be included in the list price. Instead you have to open each listing in order to compare real prices, which disadvantages hosts who don't play games with the fees. The last time I stayed at an Airbnb we found a host with reasonable fees, but they were buried under a bunch of "cheaper" listings that were all actually $100+ more expensive.

The way things are is bad for guests and bad for honest hosts.
I'm almost sure Coinbase practices fractional reserve and other forms of market manipulation, let's see how that bank run works for people.

Some examples:

- NuCypher goes up quickly on binance (a few months ago) because a whale is buying there, lots of people try to withdraw on CB to sell on binance, withdrawals start off working but then get locked for 5 hours straight, reddit and other social media had people complaining, no explanation given by CB, just technical issues as always.

- Try to sell a few tokens a few weeks ago, it doesn't allow me to put big orders, instead they make me do it in multiple times, in which time the bots (some of which are theirs), front run me and instead of sell at a 5% lower price in one hit I lose 10% just waiting for the UI to allow me to make small order after small order.

- Always blocking withdrawals in the most suspicious moments imaginable, just happened to me 3 days ago trying to withdraw USDC, had to wait an hour until that "unexpected error occurred" disappeared.

- Human greed, why would they be different from the banks? I see most people don't withdraw their coins, I lend their coins for interest and profit from it, shareholders are happy, I sell my stocks and make money, if a bank run occurs I'll declare bankruptcy or ask the government for help because like a bank if my customers lose their money they might become unhappy and cause the government problems (Coinbase will eventually become a bank if crypto hype keeps growing).
Ban everyone you disagree with. Yeah, that will lead to great things.
Even small projects have bugs, or how PVS-Studio checked Blend2D
Useful to think through the numbers.

Few American dr's make $1M. Most of those that make many multiples more than nurses are specialists, and they are still much less than $1M. I do know ones that do better... Because they are involved in effectively second jobs around biotech startups, maybe clinical trials, vs the actual patient care. I've been curious on celebrity patients (who seem to be more about donations/endowments.) You can get $700k by being the only specialist in the middle of nowhere and working nonstop, but most prefer not to.

Instead, someone doing regular family medicine is more like $150-250k... Less than a US programmer with significantly less training & responsibilities. You don't get big RSU refreshers for saving lives.

But the interesting thing is comparing over time. Specialists not only likely took loans and no salary for the stressful years of college, med school, and then residency, but then did another 2-4 years of fellowship, and really good ones, another 4-7 years of underpaid phd. They are making up for 1-2 decades of being underpaid and even debt, beyond the daily stress. More fun? As all the pay comes deferred in big batches, it is also taxed at ~double the rate of everyone else. Triple hit for savings: they don't get the compounding investment bump of people who started to get paid 1-2 decades sooner. Insurance is high too - disability, liability, etc. that regular people don't pay.

After another decade or two it balances out and starts being more than others, and then they retire.

Grass is always greener :)
I agree that society shouldn't regulate what people spend their money on, but I'd argue it ought to limit the amount of money that any one individual can accrue.

It’s going to be expensive to resolve. How far from the mri were the disabled devices, and was there reasonable airflow to those locations? Thinking about it, there was an emi spike starting things up (missing brass?), there’s a lot of magnetic field (things like pens and keys can go mobile) and the aforementioned helium leak. Sensitive antennas and the like won’t like the emi or magnetism, and if there are also components sensitive to He…

I once screwed with a tube colour tv using a magnet and the colours were distorted in that area of the screen until I unplugged the tv and left it for a few days. Induced currents from the magnetic field or changes in the electric or magnetic fields might not be all that good for devices that run on milliamperes or less.

And somebody has to pony up a bunch of iOS devices and some He to run blind controlled experiments. I suspect that “operating in an area that could pull fillings out of teeth” voids their warranty.
The government guaranteed access to the basics to the masses. It made money via the market liberalization policies. I was talking about how governments using their budgets for inclusive policies can have a much more impactful role in poverty reduction.

In other nations where the governments don't take these proactive role, people are at the mercy of market forces for everything, including basics needed for survival.

Topic on how governments can make money via global trade is a different thread of discussion. This one pertains on how the public sector can/should use their power to empower the underprivileged.

In other words:

> We can keep going back and forth but it seems like you don't really understand the value of having an entire city be walkable

Indeed, I'd like you to explain this to me, especially in the context of a city that is bikable. What does it mean for an environment to be "more dynamic"? As far as I can see, people switch between residential and commercial areas, parks, and event spaces all the time - it's just that they take the bike to do so.
Yes? The vast majority people who get banned on Twitter or FB are banned before even running for office, whether they are left or right or center. Why should Trump be different?

>> Since coinbase isn’t FDIC insured, it makes sense that if coinbase goes bankrupt, the customer currencies will go away as well.

No it doesn't. Well if coinbase is lending crypto like a bank then sure. But if they are acting like a stock broker, they should be holding real assets on behalf of customers and those assets should go to the customers who actually own them.

Longer term investors can actually (could? it's been a while) get their stock certificate mailed and hold it themselves.
How Wall Street banks made a killing on SPAC craze
Sigh. I guess repurposing old hardware is all we get.
Seems like a site that I would like to use, but it didn't solve my problems.

I wanted to be able to only see companies that were willing to hire people that live in the country that I live in.

Searching by tech was potentially useful, but didn't really work. I had a large list of companies returned, a sample of which said they used that technology, but didn't have any jobs using it. It needs to be a filter on jobs not on the company - and also a critical technology on that job.

Filtering by benefit seemed a bit pointless. Why would one particular benefit be make or break? What if another company was paying twice as much, but didn't have that benefit - would it still be interesting?
