But those are exactly the most hardboiled - I'd fully expect them to reject the graph as fake. But just because some racists are lost causes, does not imply all who harbor racist fears are beyond saving.
I don't think these are the kinds of animations being referred to. They're instantaneous state changes. E.g., for the highlight effect you can just change the key image on press. It doesn't need multiple frames of animation.

So while it is technically an animation, I don't think it really requires any special GUI toolkit support to implement.
What jig would be up? Mining as profiteering? For sure, and the end of mining is an inevitability. Bitcoin as currency could continue though, no?
Both are downmarket now. They are shells of their former selves.
Well EU is not exactly the worst place in the world...
Yes, exactly. Before we have written history is prehistory. As we get more history, the boundary of prehistory moves back.

So most of the American remnants are prehistoric, despite being coeval with history in the "old world".
Sure, but I guess my point was, do they really need to? How much does it add?

I'm not necessarily saying they don't matter, more that I'd like to find out how much they actually matter, vs how much people think they matter.
Every time I see that Apple keyboard, I can't help but be reminded of the chicklet keyboards of the 8-bit era. Everything old is new again.
I did run some VRRP or CARP stuff (forget the specific tool/protocol - but that's kinda like pacemaker right?) in an immature OpenStack cloud once that didn't have a good LBaaS yet. It was a semi supported hack documented by the provider.
We have plenty of the low-paying jobs that only immigrants do in the US as well.

Some are via temporary work visas, some are via undocumented immigrants. The fact that they are undocumented immigrants means that they have very few legal protections, which makes it a lot easier for employers to exploit them.
AFAIK, the PoS in ethereum is structured that it is extremely hard to ignore a stake (you're vulnerable to slashing if you do), and that you are only vulnerable to slashing if you cheat (not if you are merely offline, at which point you just forego any rewards). Counteracting this requires a similar or greater amount than a PoW chain would require for similar effects (where a 51% attack can also simply refuse to build off of a particular miners blocks, thus effectively stopping their reward).
People should give up on specifying the S or D in casual timezone references. Simply writing "12:53 Pacific" usually gets the point across. Incorrect usage of S during D times of year is far more common than the rare case where the indicator matters.
ARM big little uses the same instruction set on each core, right? You wouldn't have one 8.2 core and one 8.4 core?
I typed what I meant to (unusually?). Haircut as in they go through accounts and trim the balance down by some %.

Although to be fair those sort of manoeuvres generally mean that a bank is going under, so a % loss can be a better outcome than losing everything. It depends.
I strongly agree with your last paragraph. I used Heroku for my wedding website and I would 100% use it again on a project site.

In about 15 minutes I was able to take my site from localhost to a custom domain with SSL with just a little more than a git push. I can't think of many solutions that are simpler than that.

> Most world governments and taxing authorities work for their populace, they could be easily voted out if people saw what other nations are benefiting from such innovation.

you've got a lot of faith in "most world governments and taxing authorities". here in the US, i look at other countries who include in their tax statements a breakdown of where all your tax bill is going. that looks like a thing those other citizens benefit from, so please tell me: how can i vote this into effect here?
If you also pay immigrants well, they actually integrate well.

A huge barrier to integration is lack of social mobility. Europe hasn't really closed the class gap between Europeans and immigrants (either economic immigrants, or escaping a shit country immigrant)
Capitalism won't however, allow for speech which threatens its own existence. Utterances which pose a threat and cannot be subsumed by capitalism are stopped, erased, and penalized. I'll argue that this is the very speech that is most important to protect.

The impression I got was that the problem was not related to php being slow but just a general scalability problem. If go runs it 2x as fast, it will still fail with 2x as many photos which is very common. Maybe as part of the rewrite they will address this but I think photos is a fundamentally different problem to hierarchical file storage that they require being split up like how google photos is not part of google drive despite sharing the same storage usage quota.
You can sponsor your own EB-2. I did.

IRL you are in real physical danger of being physically attacked for offending someone's sensibilities. It's no wonder that people prefer to err on the side of caution if nothing else is at stake.
> I get that we can't open the flood gates.

Actually: why not? This is how the US has operated for centuries after all, not to mention that treating immigrants as a natural disaster ("flood") is a talking point established by the anti-immigrant far-right.

It's disturbing to see how the far right has managed to pervert the core of the identity of the US and the core values on which the EU was founded. Both the US and the EU are now, first and foremost, militarized borders to ward off the poor (that are mostly migrating due to the consequences of decades of our very own politics).

This house I moved into has prewired surround speakers and I felt like I should take advantage.

What a hassle though, I can’t get audio flowing from the tv, can’t get it to drive all the speakers, it runs super hot.

It really seems like a hardware hobby more than a way to enjoy movies so far.

No it doesn't - it says it's not a settled issue.

"No ... settled" vs an actual official UK government website on the subject contradicting with actually there's a "degree of uncertainty". How much of a better source can you get than that?
> Farming, construction, landscaping, etc all need undocumented labor over 'legal' labor, all around the country, but especially in farm country. Do you really believe that they honestly do not want migrant labor coming over the borders?

The US issued 200k+ seasonal visas last year for exactly this, it’s very legal.

Everything after the ribbon was garbage. They changed it, for worse, to sell new copies.
It kicks the can down the road, but it also means that the "first cause" can be even less likely (on any one planet) and still have happened.

In other words, if terrestrial life isn't assumed to have arisen on earth de-novo, then the odds of it arising elsewhere and being transplanted by chance rise considerably, as it only has to happen once on any one of many other worlds that are potentially suitable, and if we extend the thought to Earth perhaps not being a 2nd generation cradle to being a 3rd, or even at a further remove, the odds of life arising spontaneously somewhere start to look darnright favorable, and that is still assuming that we should only consider the emergence of terrestrial life-as-we-know-it rather than anything lifelike, with life-as-we-know-it simply being the one that emerged (or rather, spread) first, at least in our particular parochial corner of the universe.
Walk down, fuck them all. I know it's a cliche (maybe "slow and steady wins the race" is more PC, but it's not as motivating), but it's a helpful reminder when getting too excited about something.

Database read request are not the same as readonly HTTP requests. I am much happier having all requests hit my app process than I am trying to do the CDN dance.

Right now your choices are: run a database in on region and:

1. Use the weird HTTP header based cache API with a boring CDN

2. Write a second, JS based app with Workers or Deno Deploy that can do more sophisticated data caching

3. Just put your database close to users. You can use us for this, or you can use something like Cloud Flare Workers and their databases.

My hot take is: if something like Fly.io had existed in 1998, most developers wouldn't bother with a CDN.

Weirdly, most Heroku developers already don't bother with a CDN. It's an extra layer that's not always worth it.
"The current generation of senior leaders"

I work with a lot of startups. I was recently working with PairEyewear.com, founded by 2 people who were 26 years old, and who are now 28 years old. They go to the office 4 days a week. I do not see a generational shift, I see leaders of all ages going to the office.

First of all, we have to make reasonable inferences of intent all the time. Being able to do so lies at the heart of criminal law (see mens rea). We'll never be able to probe into the subjective heart of someone, but we do our best based on available evidence and tolerate the errors, while always trying to converge closer to objective truth.

There are plenty of interesting things to talk about in this world. Not all comments are worth publishing or reading; some are deemed more valuable than others. Editorial discretion is one of the distinguishing characteristics of different discussion fora. Just like you could read a different newspaper if you disagreed with the editorial bent of one, a great thing about the Internet is that you can always start your own forum if you disagree with the editorial choices of an existing forum owner. And the startup costs are a whole lot lower, too.
Farming doesn't actually depend on illegal migrants. The H2A visa program provided for 213,394 temporary workers for agriculture in 2020 (93% from Mexico).
This is long overdue
I am going to address the elephant in the room.

"[1.] Can a country train mediocre domestic performers to the productivity of the top 1% of other nations, while staying competitive?" OR

"[1a.] Can America's 25th percentile out-compete the 1 percentile of other countries"? OR

"[1b.] Nurture, but to what extent?"

It is pointless to have numerous discussions go around in circles, while no one is willing to address the awkward musical chair that stays empty. If [1.] is true, then there is a strong case towards reducing immigration. If not, then immigration is the only way a country can maintain a developmental advantage.

_______

I understand that this kind of question can quickly head towards Eugenics if the discussion isn't careful or in immense good faith. However, it must be glaringly obvious to every smart person that careful inquiry around question [1.] is central to actually figuring out a solution that moves past propaganda that ideological goals.

While I am digging myself into a hole, I am going to state a few more such questions:

[2.] If the pareto principle is true, then is there a hard capability threshold past which immigrants should be avoided ?

[3.] If economic immigrants are a net drain, then what level of additional tax on immigrants makes them a positive addition to the system?

[4.] Can someone please explain these graphs to me ? [g1][g2][g3][g4] . Isn't this a contradiction ?

[5.] What percent of a representative human population can 'learn to code' at a professional level?

_______

To be very clear, I do not equate capability or intelligence to IQ or any one-dimensional SAT-like test. I will leave it upto the reader to interpret 'general intelligence / capability / economic productivity/ human value' as they see fit.

Also, this is a purely economic perspective towards immigration. I am keeping morals/need/ideology for another time.

Stress is not an emotion but a complex and very broad and vague mental and physical state.
This details how to allow for single “modifier + key” combo for opening apps instead of alt-tabbing.

That sounds pretty awesome actually!
That too will cause social unrest, indeed. But we won’t suffer social unrest today just to make tomorrow easier, however wise that might be. We’ll kick the can.
You do realize that most decent size US companies have presence in EU, Canada, India etc. and can easily shift open racks to those offices (and they actively do). As an example Apple has doubled it's head count in Cork Ireland a few times.
I wish states could do this. Instead people can make a bunch of gains while living in Oregon (for example), then move to Idaho and not owe anything to Oregon. Even if the capital gains were accrued while they lived in Oregon and benefited from that residency.
> There's a lot of wealthy people who want easily manipulated, uneducated, trapped-in-poverty workers to exploit.

I think it's a lot less wealthy people are evil and a lot more they just don't want to pay for these things.

Very few people benefit from a poorly educated society.

But the top 1% pay for 38.8% of Federal taxes. It's more about not wanting to pay $100k+ in taxes and less about being evil and wanting your countrymen to be dumb and poor so you can exploit them.

Sure, some wealthy people are literally villains. Most of them aren't. Even the ones who vote for said policies. It's more greed than evil.
My point exactly. The US is completely incapable of competing for non-top-level talent from the EU.

Very few Europeans in their right mind would consider going through the meat grinder that the US immigration system is, not least of which is the bad rep the US gets for not having a single payer healthcare system (not that it should have one, it’s just that Europeans also have to justify giving that up)

Personally, I love the United States. But the US basically can’t compete for me as an employee, because I’m going to take the offer that makes the most rational sense, which, with as things stand, is extremely unlikely to come from an employer in the US.
But if you pay well, you also get the locals to do the job.

I know higly educated people in demand (scientists, engineers,...) are well paid anywhere, but "free immigration" would bring in a lot of people, bringing a lot of jobs down to minimum wage or even lower.
What makes me suspicious is that everyone in many of “the sciences” is very sure to note that there very little room in the labor market.
>Wrong weather and bad accents are pretty tame, I agree.

Tell that to all the people complaining about yellowface/Apu. It's genuinely on an "Ahh, I am honourable Chinese man, my family is honour" level.

>The "Tropes vs Women in Video Games" YouTube series by Feminist Frequency goes over a lot of these.

Wow, using Anita Sarkeesian - widely derided for being out of touch and over-intellectual - as a source and expecting to change minds.

>Most men couldn't accurately describe shopping for a pair of pants as a woman, let alone something more complex.

Seriously? Men complaining about going clothes shopping with their wives is goes back to the days of bad 1950s stand-up.

>Nevertheless there are many women in much worse jobs who would take all of those terrible game dev jobs in a second if they could. The fact that they haven't suggests some systemic problem.

I'm being serious here - child care, admin or even retail are much, much better jobs from the point of view of living a balanced life and providing for your family than anything in games dev.
I'd like to do any one-off job, not only scheduled ones; retrieving data and transforming or storing it, scraping a web page, running a database migration. My biggest annoyance with Fly is the assumption that everything is a long running application.
The decrease in net migration has everything to do with COVID + and embarrassing inability to process green card and other immigration related backlogs and almost nothing to do with there not being enough people willing to migrate here. At worst there are tens of millions of people who would migrate here; upper estimates are around 750 million, though that is only based on stated intention AFAIK and the real number would likely be lower.

Thank you mate!

To clarify, my current dose is 20mg XR daily. I have raised with my doctor that this dose is completely spent (I have other [diagnosed] issues that lead to an overly acidic stomach) long before the end of the work day, and thus I don't have medicinal help when I turn to my personal life.

As yet she seems quite unwilling to adjust the dose or add an IR (anecdotally adding an IR seems very common), and I was wondering what the timeline was between starting medication and landing on a sufficient dose of XR+IR between you and your doctor.
It absolutely does, about half the agricultural workforce of the US is considered "undocumented" [1].

this results in the conclusion that Linear B is actually a version of a regional [script, not linguistic] dialect of Linear A that was used to write a different language.

I'm having trouble understanding this. To me this says that Linear A and Linear B are different scripts that express different [spoken] languages, but might share common heritage. Which sounds obvious to me, not groundbreaking, unless they've now identified the common source.

Or are you saying that Linear A and Linear B might be the same script (as in phoneme->symbol encoding), but used to express a different language?

> If the relationship falls apart, you have 10 days to leave the country unless you stay married.

By the way, this is not true. If you prove that the marriage was bona fide, you keep your green card. Which you don’t really even have to prove if it lasts longer than 2 years.
> The EU has a very strict immigration policy for people outside of the EU and it also has natural language barriers that bar foreigners from almost all jobs.

I would disagree, or do you mean immigration as in naturalisation? The EU's blue card [1] system will give you a residence permit (initially a limited one that you'll have to extend after a few years, and afterwards usually a permanent one) if you have a master's degree and a job offer where the salary is market-compatible. As for the language, places like Germany are desperate for IT people that the companies are adopting English as the corporate language, it also helps with the employees from other EU countries who are there thanks to freedom of movement.

Most of the areas I checked out looked great, but... the section 3.4 on 'Ninja code' is terrible:

It swaps to an ironic, sarcastic, in-jokey tone almost completely divorced from the previous sections that will leave much of the intended audience (people new-ish to programming) utterly confused by what is being said—or in this case, worse, what is intentionally not said. The effect of this self-absorbed style of teaching is so poor, I think, that that page actually damages the overall text in its current state.

Surely the point of a site like this shouldn't be shaped for the entertainment of experienced programmers, but to help less experienced programmers know what to do—and what not to do. They could still make it funny, just... not that.
They don’t just give the market makers data, they match them with customers. That’s payment for order flow. This model is slightly threatened since some people don’t like it and even the SEC chairman has spoken against it (I said “under attack” above and that’s a bit dramatic).
I'm actually very curious: why is bandwidth so much cheaper on more traditional VPS or dedicated server hosts like Hetzner ? This extends to their somewhat new-ish cloud product, where you get 20TB traffic included - even on a tiny instance. And it's 1 Euro per TB after that. [1]

Do they just decide to not profit from bandwidth or are they doing something special that allows them to be so cheap?

I don't agree with the inverse. Bad speakers (eg laptops, especially Thinkpads) can make listening to good songs into a meh experience. It's better than nothing when you want music, but rarely will you notice that spontaneous feeling of love for what you're hearing. This doesn't justify the utterly diminishing returns of the audiophile world or the whole speaker cable nonsense, but paying something for a decent setup is worth it. Although from what I understand that effective price point is much lower with headphones compared to speakers.

For movies, I watched a cam rip once. The experience was so bad I vowed never again. And the weird bit is all the distortions were like only half-perceptable (warbly audio, mild shadows / reflections from people walking near the camera), so I would just feel like something was wrong but couldn't immediately place it.
How about gay vs straight? Being gay used to be classified as a disorder. That has changed in time, many (most?) now understand it as something different but not better or worse than being straight.

When it comes to differences between people, there are a lot of traits that we should be careful about categorizing as better or worse. Especially if it leads to us essentially eradicating the trait via eugenics.
