> The fact that the median and average house prices have exploded signifies that the housing market is in a bubble.

It doesn't signify that. The US has long since switched over to a permanently low interest rate environment due to the extreme national debt that the Fed has to manage. Housing is going to stay artificially expensive on a longer-term basis accordingly. Housing only deflates on a sustained basis if interest rates go up a lot on a sustained basis, and that's not going to happen (we're coming up on 14 years into the forever low rates era).

We've been enjoying very high rates of consumer inflation and what has the Fed done? Zilch. Mostly all they've done is jabber, which is most of what they can do now: endlessly talk about how they plan to raise rates. Why? Because they can't do anything of consequence and they know it. It's a humiliating failure of their supposed mandate.

One of the many consequences of forever low rates is forever artificially inflated asset prices.

Real-estate values broadly are not a bubble, it's dollar debasement, which is why gold is going to become normal up toward $2,000 and oil is going to be normal at $65-$75+.

Mediocre economic growth will (presently is) ultimately take care of the elevated rates of inflation, rather than the Fed hiking rates by a lot. Later in the decade the Fed will be back to talking about how they'd like to spark higher rates of inflation, as typical annual real GDP growth sinks below 2%.
Alta Vista was a good start but I think it was viewed as a marketing exercise for the alpha chipset. Yahoo search was excellent, but was it hand curated? There were a number of search companies, all with their secret sauce (and often guys in their garage).

Good tech is good. Good luck is better. But betting that one’s cache is permanent is a great way to end up on the “who were they again?” list.
That's a really well written app. I'll look at it more. I briefly tried to work with the database but found it really confusing and would take a lot of time trying to work with
You can pay someone to do something that’s not needed, and maybe it gives them a sense of purpose based on a Victorian/puritanical view of the world (rather than just giving the money regardless)

However to me it’s like doormen and bellboys at US hotels or people behind a counter at a shop, it’s unnecessary human contact (which is horrendous), and it reduces functionality (reducing capacity of fixed infrastructre)

A better solution would be to employ people in more productive enterprises.

Amazon is a retailer, and the mindset of a retailer is squeezing fractions of a penny out of toilet paper vendors. None of the original leadership principles says anything about human beings.
Would want to look at how people use Power Shell on Windows and compare to how people use bash/tools/procfs/Python/C on *nix.

I think that, on *nix, Power Shell loses to cli tools/bash/procfs for trivial problems, to Python for simple problems, and to native strongly typed languages for complicated problems.

Many Windows APIs are COM based, for both arguments and results, so an OO-based scripting language is helpful.

Unix APIs tend to be less strongly typed. Mostly lists of lists of strings and ints.

Is there really a recent increase in shells on Linux? I can only think of zsh and fish.
Thanks. Yeah that's why my salaries/compensation detail are all public, so I can try and help nudge the needle a bit towards at least having ranges available everywhere.
Two users at $2/month is not as profitable as one user at $4/month because there is an overhead per user.

Obvious ones like the fixed portion of a credit card transaction fee.

Less obvious ones like customer support.

And of course segmenting the market between customers with money and the extremely price sensitive is a proven business strategy.

I think that's because parallelism and concurrency are words that were originally very close in meaning and both could have been slapped on the same concept.
Whenever I read or listen to such interviews I want to hear what the people working in these organizations are thinking. Usually there is a huge mismatch between reality and what these managers are presenting.
Building cars is my hobby so I do know that it is more nuanced, but once again, this does not refute my initial point.

You do need some back-pressure to siphon back, but the amount is very limited, especially when we compare it to the sheer amount of air mass that those cars are moving.

Just so it doesn’t get lost — my point is, sports cars being loud when they’re full throttle is not a problem and never was, realistically you wouldn’t drive them that way outside of a racing track anyway. The fact that people still do it and annoy everyone else is a people problem, not a car problem.
I think this is more for people who are already in the Anki ecosystem and use it extensively.

Anki can take a while to get used to. And there are a lot of articles/videos tutorials. I didn't think it was within the scope of my program to explain Anki cards haha.
Good idea. Given that in many (most?) countries the post/mail system is a part of the state apparatus I think it's only right that every citizen automatically be given a P.O. box address as an enumerated positive right.
Because disclosure is part of the culture here. If you're working for the competition or have some other relevant source of bias, it's polite and ethical to disclose that.
That example introduces a lot of visual clutter and inconsistency. I doubt anyone can make it from 1 to 24 and not feel exhausted.

And even the com integration is poor. Trying to script anything to do with Outlook is so failure prone and unreliable it turned me off powershell altogether.
I'm actually interested in the sociology/economics of these dynamics. They're everywhere. We live in a blur and somehow things happen.. but the forces driving these moves are still difficult to grasp (for me).
2. Instead of that use separate firefox profiles - one exclusively of Gmail. Another for casual browsing. If you clear cookies all the time then it seems like you are logging in so many times per day. This could be a warning sign of hacked account - for google. (i.e) do not do unusual things.

3. At the end U2F is the proper solution, albeit late!
Still, I would expect the overhead to be moderate, not a killer.
If I had to guess why, maybe because PowerShell is a little “busy”. It always feels unclear whether he was trying to make something similar to Unix Shell or a shell for the .NET environment. It’s greyed somewhere in between in a confusing and inconvenient way. Something as simple as a diff requires using objects, it just doesn’t feel like it was designed with SysAds in mind.

My guess was it had to do with marketing, sort of like how JS started off as a Scheme dialect, but higher ups enforced Java Syntax. .NET was pretty new at the time.
I'd like to know why Snower accepted abuse from corporate overlords for 5+ years (according to the thread). Being "in the dog house" for that long is ridiculous on the surface. That would never stand in today's world of tech. Is he just oldschool and had the mindset of "the company is always right"? Is he just a company man with intense loyalty? I would understand the company not adopting it and having to spend five years advocating for new tech in a company that large. But I can't understand why being demoted and punished for 5 years. I grew up with a major emphasis on work ethic but I can't wrap my mind around this.
I want politics and taxation to be more local in the smallest division practical, with extreme limits being placed on the power and scope of larger political organizations. In short I fully support US Style Federalism and oppose the move to make the US Federal Government all powerful

If I was in the EU I would support sovereignty of the nation states,and oppose efforts to make the EU Government all powerful

the move to make governments larger and all encompassing including calls for a 1 world government, are IMO a threat to individual freedom and will not have the desired effect you seem to think

Poems and aphorisms are an art form that requires the reader to fill gaps in logical structure to create meaning. Humans naturally try to generate meaning from arbitrary nonsense if it's grammatically correct.

Human curated samples will almost certainly be good.

For some reason this article stirs a lot of internal conflict in me.

A part of me wants to view it without any judgement but another part, the old man part, feels there’s something deeply wrong with this. The problem is that I cannot think of a substantive reason it’s wrong other than “half a million people don’t have something better to do than watch someone study?” Or “do kids have such a weak will that they cannot study by themselves?” Or, “are we so lonely/needy that we have to broadcast ourselves/watch others doing mundane things rather than something more important?”

Neither of these are really true and in fact it’s a positive that others are accomplishing they study goals by watching him.

I’m just in my 40’s but it feels like the old Simpsons joke “old man yells at cloud”. This is a bit unsettling.
I think this is overly negative. McLlroy solution, albeit maybe cheap / suboptimal, also shows a bit of algebraic, composable qualities. You have a simple model, and pipes to connect partial solutions. Iterating through different parameters allows to quickly adapt / converge to different solutions. Focus on reuse too.
> you are setting yourself up for losing your account forever if you ever forget to transfer all your 2FA numbers, or if the phone company decides they want to cancel your contract, or potentially if you lose your SIM card, or even if whatever SMS gateway doesn't like your number for whatever reason

Its the same with your address, what if your landlord randomly decides to kick you or your house burns down? Where I live my mobile number is very secure and will not change until I fuck up very hard. And in this case I have multiple other backups (printed codes, rescue number).

Observe /r/programming or HN for long enough.

Azure, for one. Azure's primary and preferred method of interaction instead of it's UI is with it's API, which is also available fully wrapped up as Powershell cmdlets which again run on all three OS's.

You don't, you either get them to install it's APT .deb file or <insert distro packaging format here> or wget the dotnet-install script. OR, you just build your app with .NET runtime packaged in .so file alongside your app.

Running the applications involves typing ./my-application which then runs the ELF binary. There is no .exe unless it's on Windows. It's the same install and run story that any of the other languages listed mentioned.

The value of stocks is pinned to two events that you often don’t directly participate in but are absolutely connected to in a real way.

1. The IPO. While it’s true that only the people who buy at the IPO directly finance the company, if there wasn’t the promise of someone else in the future to sell the shares to, nobody would buy at the IPO. The existence of future second-hand buyers makes the direct funding at the IPO possible.

2. Dividends and buybacks. All stocks get their value from either the current existence or future promise of dividends and buybacks. While from time to time people get lost in “greater fool” trading, the reason a stock doesn’t go to zero is because there is either currently a dividend/buyback or people believe that eventually when the company matures, they will offer a dividend/buyback to shareholders and a future buyer will want to buy this shares for the cash returned by the company. (As a tangent, this is something most crypto investors don’t understand… cryto is almost exclusively “greater fool” trading with no basis in the promise of future real cash return)

How can you skip (at least parts of) KYC requirements these days?

To me it seems KYC gets ever more pervasive: I had opened a bank account 5 years ago in the EU/UK space and 4 years ago closed it again. Now I opened an account again at the same bank - and the process was significantly more involved, more documentations needed to be provided for the same service, even though I had been their customer before.

The KYC requirement makes me feel uneasy from a privacy point of view: If it would be an eyes-only verification, I would be happy to provide a lot of data to prove I'm not a bad guy. But since the data gets stored and potentially forwarded to third parties, this significantly increases my risk for data and identity theft, as number of increasing data breaches show: https://www.securitymagazine.com/articles/96667-the-top-data...

And there is also a long-term risk associated with excessive KYC data hoarding about individuals: The atrocities in Nazi Germany were in part possible because the government gathered data about the Jewish population (e.g. by enacting essentially KYC-like requirements for its citizens; though I guess through this lense the word should be "KYJ") and then subsequently used that data to round them up: https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/locating-t...

I had the same problem with Barclays (a long time ago...) when moving to the UK, they wouldn't accept a letter from my employer and they wouldn't accept a rental agreement either as proof of address. Solution: the confirmation letter that I received from the NI people was finally good enough, so I could open an account only a month after I'd moved to the UK!
Btw. the NI number is a must anyway, so it's just that it takes some time until you get it.

This is a direct consequence of there being no official central registration of one's address in the UK, unlike in many other countries. You might call Austria bureaucratic for example, because you have to register within 3 days of moving (and another registration is necessary within 4 months), but then you get official papers that prove your address, so this never becomes an issue here, unlike in the UK.
In short it doesn't let me do what I wanted. I just wanted to keep my notes as is and add cards if I need to. I don't want to change lines of notes and reformat things just to make a card.

I think you reference only considers the index adjusted for inflation, but without taking the dividends into account.

Optimists tend to consider the dividends too small to matter when buying stocks, but it turns out that over time, the dividends tend to be a large part of the inflation adjusted returns:

According to this article [0], the profit of investing just before the .com bust would be only 12.9% by mid 2017, which is about 0.7%pa, if adjusting for inflation but not dividends.

When taking dividends into account, that grows to 54.5%, or 2.54%, more than 3x more.

And this is more or less the worst case based on recent history.

Fun fact, US states have more freedom from the Federal government than EU member states have from the EU.

US states can basically just ignore or refuse to enforce the federal law with little to no consequences (immigration sanctuary states/cities, Texas no longer treating suppressors as NFA items, etc.), but EU member states can't. EU law is binding to all of them and there's no escape from it.

I think sveltekit gets it right most of the time. yes its new tech. but I think its way better than the alternatives already.

You want a frontend server that handles auth and credentials. cleans up queries to and from the main backend server.

Then you want as low-level interaction as possible in the HTML space. HTML doesnt provide everything you need. but it gets close. JS should augment HTML, the closer you stay to HTML the better.

Sveltekit goes a long way in providing this, nextjs and all the others just threw way to much tech at the front end space.

You basically want a way to turn URL's and POST requests into GET and POST responses. SPA is mostly not great and was a sidestep in a useable web.
As much as I appreciate people like you doing new things, the same will happen to your project if it grows.

There will be a point that your service will simply have too many users to handle all of their requests in a satisfactory way.

If you disagree I'm interested why you think y'all can make it differently.
Keep in mind that these communities are affected by what I call a "reddit effect" - they tend to be negative, so only people who dislike the company go there, creating a toxic negativity feedback loop.

This question pops up a lot on HN. From what I've read in similar posts, you'd have a hard time getting your account back even if you'd work at Google.
Sadly, having your phone number not associated with the account will make recovery extra hard. To their credit, Google does provide multiple ways to set up account recovery (e.g., recovery codes).
