It doesn't click in peoples minds because it is not simple. It is patently more complex than Visa or Mastercard. If there really was the "simplicity of the Internet" then a system better than Visa or Mastercard or logging on to your bank and sending money would have appeared in the last 12 years.

Secondly, no government is giving up control of their economy to Crypto miners and the "global financial system". It will not happen, it will be regulated until it is controlled (a state owned coin effectively). I certainly don't want anonymous miners or the whims of Crypto casino controlling the economy in the country i live.

At least with the current system I can vote for a government that has control of it's economic policy, even if that vote has minimal effect. Some control is better than none.
I recently photographed a Tiger (The big cat, in the Zoo...) with the iPhone 13 Pro Camera. It looked like a comic drawing with exaggerated stripes and weird artifacts in the face. The whole pipeline from the photons hitting the sensor of the photographer to being emitted from your phones screen again is just layers and layers of optimization, compression and enhancement. Completely compromised. I think we are getting very close to a point where photography cannot be assumed to depict the real world by default.

It is unfortunate as the reality that the brain constructs seems to be based on this fake reality of everyone being unnaturally perfect and attractive. This seems to work even against better knowledge. No wonder we have a teenage mental health crisis. I would not be surprised if social media will get the same have the same curve of public opinion as smoking once had.

I wonder if this is regional or specific to your location. I've been to several (and have frequently shopped at two) and they've never had a person staffing the carts.

It has been practical for a long time, but you may be right in that they'll have a hard time with the younger generations that transition to being cashless.
My view is that capital and investment will dry up and companies that are operating at a loss(many in tech right now) will either have to downsize or close up completely. This will cause a domino effect. People will lose jobs, and some of those people will have bought a million dollar shack in the past 2 years and they might have to sell at a loss or foreclose. Generally I think we have yet to see any real macroeconomic fallout from the markets cooling. I see many people already comparing this to '08 and saying 'it's definitely not that bad this time' but the reality is we haven't even seen any fallout yet.
How does all this look to the federal government and deficit spending?

What happens when they can't borrow money at near-zero any more, and need to borrow more money at 5-10%?

Everyone always said the debt was nothing to worry about. It's been repeated for a long time as our debt keeps rising, but it was most apparent with the recent spending bills and virtually no pushback on trillions in unfunded spending.

Exactly: the waste problem is a political one, not an engineering problem.

But it's moot anyway, because the US doesn't reprocess it's waste. So today's nuclear waste is a source of fuel later and it's be a waste to bury it before reprocessing anyway.
If you're running Postgres in Docker, you can just stop the container and tar up the data volume and start it somewhere else

(This also works without Docker of course, but Docker makes me feel safer when I do stuff like this)

It makes sense anyway, there’s a lot of material of value even in a dead pack.
That sounds quite a bit different from Oblique Strategies. This strongly suggests you have a misconception about these cards.

They're just little cards with ways to help you consider/approach a problem from another angle. I've never sprung for a set myself as they're a bit pricey and I've got enough physical clutter as it is. But, many find them useful to some degree. Certainly, I think, we would all agree that often we need to consider a problem from a different angle?

What aspect of the Oblique Strategies cards do you consider a "bad idea?"
SketchUp. Pretty easy for an amateur/hobbyist to learn, powerful enough that your architect might use it, too. You can try the web based version for free.
> Say your 300 mile battery loses 30% in 5-10 years.

But this is way, way more degradation than actually happens.

> Not to mention that only Tesla's have the super charger network, so it makes even less sense for non-Tesla EV owners.

This isn't true anymore in much of Europe, and in not too long it won't be true anywhere.

> A battery range longer than the average trip distance * 2 is unnecessary.

About half of your trips are longer than average.
Building something like this to work with existing code in compiled languages is REALLY HARD. However, take a look at rr and Pernos.co.
Which sounds terrible, and goes against "innocent until proven guilty" rule. Also, in some situations it gives the driver perverse incentive to finish the cyclist off (and therefore get rid of the only witness), instead of, say, calling an ambulance.
Some software join it all in one step. Like the GitHub GUI the GP is talking about.
Fantastic innovation. Crazy to think such things are relatively novel. Makes Costco feasible.
I want to second that I have the impression the parent is speaking from a strictly american perspective. I'm an American that emigrated to eastern europe, and even before I emigrated, I had already started to get _used_ to the way a lot of Europe has it.

I lived in Russia and Armenia and Czech Republic for quite a few years now, and the difference in how the cities are laid out is quite apparent; having a small but well stocked market every couple hundred meters really makes planning _far_ easier, and frequent trips are not a problem. Before COVID hit, it used to be that I'd just stop at the market on the first floor of my building and grab the few perishable essentials I needed (meat, some vegetables) and had plenty to cook for myself and for friends/neighbors that would visit.

This simply isn't the case in the US, even in the most modern cities. The corner markets/bodegas/whatever don't come close to what the common market in Europe has; you can get pretty alright quality _whatever_ at these markets, and leave the more exotic stuff (mostly asian ingredients/items or non-common spices) for when you go to a super market.

That isn't to say that no one ever does the traditional hypermarket run outside of the US; seeing babushkas and their hand carts packed with a week's worth of food and drinks trudging down the lane is a normal sight, but just as frequently they're stopping by the meat market near their commie block or by the small shops at the base of their building to get a few quick essentials.

It's honestly far more convenient; and at least prior to Ukraine situation, the home delivery options in Russia were fantastic, albeit a bit abusive of the work force when it came to wages.
So the takeaway here is that some people should not be issued drivers licenses.

The OP said:

> Therefore informing the viewer, what you're seeing is a mixing of reality and illusion.

In my opinion, showing just the Instagram filters is worse in that case, since using any other filter (i.e. Photoshop, Camera-integrated or analog) will not be shown and people might think this is a realistic picture when it really is not.

There is some artistic and marketing value in showing the filter, but not for the use-case outlined by the OP.
When you buy a home -- the largest single purchase one makes in the middle class -- you lock in the purchase price, but not the interest rate. Housing prices still haven't recovered in Japan to their 1990 highs. So if you don't pay attention to the macro environment, you could be costing yourself a great deal. Fortunately, other asset purchases like mutual funds in retirement accounts are DCA'ed in by the paycheck, and not done all at once.
Probably because in the US it is not so easy to walk away with a cart and take it any further than the parking lot. It also wouldn't make much sense.

In Germany, you could theoretically walk your cart a few blocks to your home, then leave it on the street.
What? Around Potrero Hill, Gus’s is a third of the size of Safeway and half the size of Whole Foods, and that might still be generous. If you know what you are looking for a Gus’s trip takes less time on the merit of taking less walking the aisles due to store size alone.

For me, the primary concern isn't about Art as an economic activity. It's about what happens to human society when communication becomes divorced from human meaning.

The original purpose of art (and language) was to communicate the thoughts & views of one human mind to another. It's a fundamental need, the essence of being human, the cornerstone of culture and society.

DALL-E and GPT-3 are about to unleash a tidal wave of content that no longer performs that function, simply because _there is no human mind at its source_. What happens to us then, when we are constantly receiving an overwhelming babble of voices that appear on their surface to be meaningful, but lack any true meaning at their core? What happens to our voices, our relationships, our society?
The pictures that I've seen of the various "saved my life" destroyed helmets have the polystyrene split apart - it's usually quite easy to split polystyrene if the force is applied the right (wrong) way.

I don't like the concept of requiring PPE for a relatively safe activity as cycling as it makes cycling seem like a far more risky activity than it is and there's also the problem of "helmet hair" which can dissuade commuters. It's telling that countries where bike helmets were mandated had a sharp downturn in the numbers of cyclists.
You can't just make up a new social media site and expect everyone to join. Especially if it's more limiting then the billion dollar company product you're trying to compete with.
Depends how old you are. Even the youngest member of the UK cabinet is old enough to be my father, but the real decision makers are old enough to be my grandfather. I don't keep close track of US politicians but as far as I can tell, its even worse there.
None of the music posted on here causes me frisson. This is why I won't post songs that never fail to give me frisson because everyone's tastes are different. But anything by Squarepusher is an exception :)
I still hate them. They take too much space. When I still lived in Germany, I specifically avoided supermarkets in my district that had them.
This looks really nice. Are there any other competing frameworks in the TS space? Would be curious to hear about folks' experiences.
I think part of the problem in the USA and Canada is that our road laws are exceedingly motorist-centric. Things that don’t seem to make sense, like drivers getting a slap on the wrist for killing cyclists, do make sense if you consider that the laws don’t expressly promote and prioritize the safety of cyclist on all road ways.
Thans for this! I was looking for something like that.
It’s a Ponzi scheme, but he’s not afraid or shamed to blatantly state it because the gains and the responsibility for it are distributed.

They are betting that when the crash comes they can throw their arms in the air and say “well that was to bad, sell pressure outweighed buy pressure as the value went to zero, but that’s not our fault” all the while everyone who ever put money in the box have been slowly draining the excess. Naturally those in the know and on the inside have had the best oppotunity to drain the spoils, but in principle anyone could have done it all along. And so it goes that it’s not their fault and they didn’t mislead anyone. It’s just a Ponzi scheme going Ponzi, with everyone who joined up being partially to blame all on their own.

I hope it doesn’t go down like that, but that’s what it looks like.

Well the other quiet part that executives don't say out loud often is that if the job can be done from home, then it can be done from Mexico, India, or Eastern Europe as well which is where that job is now. To be fair, that was happening before even the pandemic, and I was mentally half checked out too. Now I work in healthcare which has a bit more of a US centric moat to it.
I haven't tried Roslynator (since I stopped using VS years ago), and to be fair you said "extensions like Roslynator". Just trying to give a bit of an elevator pitch for Rider. The analyzers in Roslynator would definitely still work in Rider (that's just a Roslyn compiler feature), but not any extension-only refactorings, that's correct.
Plenty of local produce has just one or few harvests a year. if you buy it 2 weeks later, it just means it was 2 weeks longer in storage of distributors.
Personally I don't want to have to open the browser to get more detailed docs. I'd rather have it next to the code it's referencing. (Especially if it's just a side project where sphinx or whatever is overkill.)
That's a passive failure mode I haven't seen before. To elaborate on what you said:

Imagine an index, and an index fund tracking it. The index fund will own x% of every stock in the index. Someone buys the index fund, and the index fund now try to achieve x+epsilon% in every stock.

But what if 100-x% of the stock is owned by diamond-hands hodlers, that wont sell at any price? The index fund bids higher and higher, and the sellers refuse to let their shares go, making the price reach ridiculous levels.

The price reaching 0 seems less likely, as there will always be bargain hunters.

Radiation detectors are incredibly sensitive and can detect even a single atom decaying. If there were a major radiological release people around the world would see it.

Two US nuclear submarines have gone down, the Thresher and the Scorpion. Neither was due to the nuclear power plant, and so far they have kept the radiation contained.
I am 100% born and raised euro :) mainstream bread is still crap. Take a look at bread labels. Maybe our bread is not as bad as US, but there’s tons of sugar and other additives. And raising procedures are cutting corners.

Sometimes I buy high quality bread from a small bakery. Tastes great and stays great. I find this applies to rye bread only. White bread doesn’t seem to work this way.
I find the claim particularly hard to believe. I ride at least twice a week with my brother and we behave exactly the same with and without helmets. If you have a habit of always wearing your helmet, it just starts being something you don't even really consider as part of the equation. In fact, we will occasionally go almost an entire ride before realizing that one of us forgot to put on our helmet.

I find it much more likely that claims of "data shows..." are due to uncontrolled confounding factors, such as riders being more likely to wear a helmet when they perceive the ride as meeting a certain risk threshold.
As CEOs (also, the 2008 recession didn't hit the tech sector nearly as hard as this one. The 2000 bubble burst would be a better comparison). When you have that job, the priorities are vastly different from as a W2 earner.

But, to be fair, there's plenty that have.

Which is why we're so puzzled at their behavior.
For the U.S.: https://cleantechnica.com/2022/05/20/li-cycles-battery-recyc...
"The battery recycling plant can process the equivalent of batteries required for around 20,000 EVs per annum."

For Europe: https://cleantechnica.com/2022/05/17/hydrovolt-the-largest-b...
"the Hydrovolt factory is now in commercial operation and expects to recycle 12,000 tons of depleted batteries a year initially, rising to 70,000 tons by 2025 and 300,000 tons by 2030. 12,000 tons is enough to handle all depleted batteries from electric vehicles on the road in Norway today."

Recycling currently does not happen on a larger scale, because most batteries are not EOL, not because is does not work.
This has the unfortunate failure mode where the well-off, powerful or influential get much better private insurance, which means that no one with means is advocating for the quality of the public option, so it declines or becomes uncompetitive in marketplace bidding.

Private insurance alongside public could work if it followed a strict "school-voucher" model, i.e. it gets the same funding per-head that the public option does and the customers have to show means to self-insure for any coverage shortfalls vs. the public option.
5% for a 30 year mortgage is not really that high historically speaking.

The problem is more that prices are very high and supply remains very low.
What studies? Also, the purpose of helmets is not to reduce the number of injuries, but the severity.
Imagine Picasso is paralyzed. He can't paint, can't draw, but he still has the same mental faculties. You sit him in front of a computer screen, which displays random pixels for all eternity. Whenever, after many eons, the screen displays the exact pixels of a painting he wants to create, Picasso blinks his eyes to signal that the image should be saved. The end result is that he produces exactly the same set of works that he did in real life.

Is this art?
This thread is plagued with anecdotes. Very unproductive
Buy an index fund and when the market is down try and buy more.

If you do wish to do something to actively manage things, try giving Nassim Taleb books a read, or just read about his or Mark Spitznagel's investment strategy. They also keep 97% of their money in an index fund, but the other 3% are slowly wasted away buying far out-of-the-money PUT options on boring stocks that are very cheap to buy because they'll "never happen". And most of the time, they lose that money. But when COVID hits, or airplanes crash into famous buildings, or <insert next surprise here>, those little never-gonna-happen options pay for all the damage to the 97%.

Their core theory is that humanity systematically underestimates the probability of very rare events. So it's not about timing the market, it's about using this exploit in human psychology to reduce or eliminate your "risk of ruin" from very rare events.
Cash would be wrecked due to inflation. However it should be less wrecked than other asset classes in the short term. I know nothing about bonds so I also hope they reply.
imagine being like 85 and having lived in China through WW2, revolution, famine, cultural revolution, and then the last 30 years of growth and prosperity. a lot of places have to worry about global macro and history, anyone who doesn't is living a charmed life and maybe a fool's paradise.
I think we want to compare nuclear and solar/wind/storage, where the base goal is to have a steady power generation rate over time (adjustable to demand within certain limits). This tends to produce a closer cost outcome for nuclear and s/w/s as storage costs (batteries, inertial storage, pumped hydro, etc.) are probably going to at least double or triple the installed costs of the s/w/s power system.

For example, if you want to provide relatively steady 1GW of power 24-7, 12 m/yr, this can be done with a nuclear plant running at its optimal rate (*optimal for fuel rod lifetime and steady burn rate). With a solar/wind system, you'd likely need enough PV panels to produce say 2GW at noon, with 1GW going to grid demand and another GW going to storage, to meet demand at midnight etc. Balancing seasonal demand in subpolar regions would require a lot more power and storage as well, so nuclear may have an advantage there.

Clearly both systems are possible, but both have supply chain issues (uranium ore and fuel elements and reactor construction, vs. battery components and PV panels and wind turbines and storage infrastructure). However, I'd guess long-term maintenance costs are going to be much lower with solar/wind/storage systems (with much lower fueling/waste storage issues and liabilities, which would really just be battery maintenance and replacement costs).
I can recommend HTMLy and automad.

HTMLy can easily work with 20.000 posts, without any noteworthy slowdown.
and battery will generally last much longer than any engine

What? Have you been driving GMC cars or something? Change the oil on schedule and engines last for decades.
I used something as a precommit hook in the past that removed plots and other rendered content and only kept text and code in git index. I'm almost sure it was https://github.com/kynan/nbstripout but it's been a while and I could be wrong.

Once the hook was in place git diff worked well enough to not need any other diffing tool.
There is a lot of speculation in the replies here that the US strategy towards Cuba revolves mainly around electoral posturing.

Here is the actual strategy laid out in an official government document: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/10/20/2017-22...

This policy was released in 2017. In 2021, there was a brief and ineffective attempt at a color revolution in Cuba.
> If I go out and ask everyone I know, if they are happy with the current unrepairable appliances, the amount of people who answer yes is < 10%.

I find this incredible.

Most people have been throwing away / replacing perfectly repairable appliances since long before mobile phones.

What makes mobile phones different?

(Obligatory Framing: I'm all for RtR. I don't think it's practical to require Apple to dumb down their design or construction to fit what a consumer could accomplish at their basement bench. But if I, or my neighborhood repair shop, is sophisticated enough to perform the work, I do think parts should be available.)
Analog filters exist, too. They might not be as great as their digital equivalent in some cases, but people really want to fake #nofilter and it's basically impossible to detect.
