Hmm, I spot checked a bunch of songs in the list and only listened to songs I haven't heard of and I didn't get goosebumps or any hint of frission once.

But I get goosebumps / etc. all the time when I listen to music I like, even songs I've listened to 50 times.

Is it really considered "scientifically proven" at that point? It sounds more like "if you like music, you'll probably get goosebumps when you listen to specific segments of songs you like".

What's really interesting to me is YouTube recently released a new feature into their video player that shows how frequently a certain point of a video was replayed. Even calling out "most replayed" with a label in the timeline. I'd be curious to see if frission points are associated to that.

I listened to 2 songs I like and in both cases the most replayed label was near the frission points.

This song's replay graph lines up with that perfectly for me, there's a large spike of replays at https://youtu.be/xHE5g9YgkFg?list=RDKAJhswlEdTo&t=163 but the "most replayed" part is 2 seconds after the build up. If I listen to 2:42 to 2:57, I will get a small amount of frission at 2:58 and then 2 more bigger "frissions" at 3:02 and 3:05.

Not sure this would be great for new code, because the tests are supposed to dictate the function’s behaviour, and not the other way around.

Yet, this would be amazing for legacy projects with no unit tests: you could record the code in production, and generate unit tests from there, and add them to the non-tested project.

It would bring you a safety net allowing you to better work on that legacy project IMO.

This actually reminds me a an attempt at an internal tool I saw pass by whose goal was to save all IO for a given request (aka db call, log calls, network request, file read) for a given backend, and allow you to replay those locally for testing purposes independently from the language used by the backend.
I think this didn’t lead anywhere, because it was harder than expected, some things couldn’t be recorded easily (like RNG use), and it also meant finding a way to have all IO libs use the precomputed values.
Sure! I wrote this to explains most of it

I was in a similar position, worked with C# from the beginning and recently switched to non-MS stacks. I found official documentation [1] easy enough to follow - I started with "What's new in C# 8.0" to the latest version.

> reluctance to build more nukes, but Germany shutting down nukes that were already paid for and working seems crazy

Is this statement about climate change, or nuclear safety, or a bit of both?

At least for those worrying about safety, isn't this simply the wrong way round? New nuclear plants would have to be constructed to the latest safety standards, older ("paid-for") plants are the ones which were built in an era before them and have grandfathered-in approvals which might not be granted today.

Notwithstanding that climate models improve with time, is the percent of climate scientist guesses that have come true over the last 50 or so years - at least the "alarmist" ones, which are the ones that climate deniers take issue with - better than chance? It seems the consensus were calling for global cooling in the 70s and then warming disaster around the turn of the century, both of which didn't happen
Netflix's algorithms are very good at offering interesting content for a short period of time, like a few weeks.

Even when I'm crunching at work and can only watch Netflix a few hours a week, I end up running out of interesting content.

What follows is several weeks where I find out some movie or show that was released last year is not available on Netflix yet, or some old stuff is not available.

Eventually Netflix release some decent content, which temporarily fixes their APIs responses. Rinse and repeat.

> This is how you get a 2008-type crash - loans which seem to be unrelated but are tied to a common market.

Eh, the problems in 2008 were ultimately caused by (many) central banks around the globe letting nominal gdp drop. All loans (and dividends etc) are ultimately paid out of aggregate nominal income; so obviously they are all correlated with nominal gdp: it's basically the same as aggregate nominal income.

As other person said it’s a survivor bias as well.

My sister taught psychology at a community college in a blue-collar town. It was not a glamorous job, but she was very, very good at it. She consistently got top marks on ratemyprofessors.com. She eventually rose to be dean before dying last year at age 54 (not from covid).

I have a much more "impressive" sounding resume than she did (NASA, Google) but I think she will ultimately have had a much bigger impact on the world because her legacy is hundreds of underprivileged students who will live a better life than they otherwise would have if not for her. No one will ever know, but that didn't stop her. One of my biggest regrets in life is that I did not tell her more often how proud I was of her.
> But, the ability to prove the provenance and ownership of any asset, whether physical or digital, has value.

This only works for assets which themselves exist on the blockchain and for whom the blockchain is the only source of truth - such as cryptocurrencies.

Anything else that involves off-chain activity would require a bulletproof way of keeping the on-chain and off-chain state in sync which is typically a neutral, trusted party, at which point you may as well just let them operate a conventional database and forget the whole blockchain bullshit.

> In a world where so much has been made of fake news, imagine if you could know with absolute certainty that a given quote you read from someone in an article is authentic and given to the specific outlet you are reading it at, not taken from somewhere else, perhaps out of context. Imagine if Google integrated such information/quote verification into its search results, and could use it to prioritize sites with real quotes or information. SERPs wouldn’t be full of trash, and small sites that manage to scoop large ones could get instant #1 rankings. Authenticity verification has value.

I don't see how blockchain/cryptocurrencies help here? Cryptographic signing is all you need.

If you believe this company is an outright fraud (I don’t have an opinion) “shrug its crypto” is a horrendous defense for the funds backing it.

At a bare minimum they should be doing due diligence for their own investors to prevent losses if not the higher standard of being a good citizen and shutting down the fraud.

I hired a union shop to build my house, and am thankful for it. for various reasons, construction is mostly lowest quality possible, but everybody on my house had a ticket and the result is obvious (not just appearance but lower cost of maintenance).

When I worked at Terrajoule we were not a union shop but we often hired union contractors for specific jobs (particular high pressure welds) or temporary extra manpower — after a couple of terrible experiences, it was clear that union people always knew what they were doing.
I have been researching heat pumps, in my case air-to-water, so I could get very cold water “cheaply” in the summer, but it’s still a massive project to turn that into AC.

I probably can’t make it work, because I need a bit too high water circulation temps to meet the heating load at 12°F/-11°C and the up-front economics are significantly worse due to not enough experienced installers/general lack of competition in the air-to-water space. (Our gas prices are low enough and electricity high enough that the payback period is lengthy.)

If I had existing ducts, air-to-air heat pumps would make a lot of sense (and would give AC automatically), but hydronic distribution doesn’t afford “free” AC.

When I was a kid (in the 80s-90s), my parents severely limited my television viewing, to the point that I more or less only watched on weekends, and even then not much. They said "You'll thank us later". And you know what? I did.

Pretty sure it's going to be the same story with smartphones.
One thing I noticed is that the robot is not very good at composition. Awkward crops can be a bit of a giveaway. I suspect this could an artefact of the training process, where the images were cropped and shifted randomly (speculation).

Perhaps giving the "real" art a random crop would level the playing field slightly.

Crashing early is better than crashing later because it limits the damage and moderately frequent crashes creates some level of caution in the market. Propping up a market because it's too big to fail can in some cases create worse fallout. It's a judgement call though and I'm not entirely sure we have a really good rule of thumb here.

If there were a way to have enough transparency that we had smaller crashes more frequently it would probably help to limit the damage to those who can afford to lose it.

The truth is that you can only push a correction so far out. It will happen eventually and the farther out you push it the worse it will be.
3 reasons, I suspect - if someone wants an enormous stockpile of uranium fuel they can probably do that. The volumes check out - uranium is very dense and so will not take up much space. I'm not sure if it has a shelf life, but being a rock I expect something can be sorted out.

I can't pretend to know how feasible it is in practice, but long term strategic uranium stockpiles should be doable. Long enough to weather any reasonable war. Much, much more doable than trying to store a decade of nat gas.

Netflix is 'all you can eat', and all you can eat is about quantity ('good enough'). Also, it is a given you are not going to like/want everything. The quantity is in such abundance that they try to please everyone somewhat. I suppose you could call it spreading.
According to this, it seems the skilled trades have a similar problem to medicine, where there is/was apparently a shortage of primary care doctors: people enter specialties that pay more.

The other part of the story I think is that we fetishized the 4-year undergraduate degree and de-emphasized trade schools over the last 30 years. They touch on this in the article:

“And many former paths have closed. In Seattle, Smith notes, 17 public high schools once had wood shop classes, a number that shrunk to 3.”

Curiously enough, this change in policy occurred around the same time a de-industrialization in the US (in the wake of NAFTA, normalizing trade relations with China, etc.).
You mad bro?
The idea of OEM repairs is to get the product back as close to factory quality as possible with as little margin for error as possible by the operator. This often requires custom tools and jigs to maximize repeatability at a high quality standard, especially on something as complex and highly integrated as a smartphone.

The gripe of the right to repair movement isn’t that tech should be made less complex, it is that the access to parts, information and schematics/designs should be made more accessible for repairs — useful if you have the necessary skills required to carry out repairs without OEM tools.

This is coming from someone who does board level repairs on the side.

27/30. You can tell the AI ones because they don't look like they were made with the same constraints as a human; they merge, distort, twist together lines, shapes, and colors, rather than have images split into the compartmentalized pieces that humans like to do. I find the best place to check for AI art is to look at the overlaps; this is how I figured out the kindergartener one, for example: there were no obvious "AI-like" patterns except for the one section where the drawn lady's legs intersected with the ground line, and you could see that DALL-E 2 didn't know what to do, putting one leg over the line and one underneath, which can't be done unless one leg was drawn, then the ground, then the other, which is not what a human does.
> They are deliberately contrarian (in the hope of appearing smart) and provocative (in the hope of getting eyeballs).

Yes. It is no different to the Daily Mail as they deliberately have clickbait headlines that bring in outrage and have their brainless commenters regurgitating the same manufactured nonsense by the views of the editor; especially when not all of their articles enable the comments.

Rarely do you get someone calling them out for their inaccurate reporting in the contents of the article. If one highlights an inaccuracy, their army of muppets will scream at you for not having the same views as them or the editor.

They should just stick to tech reviews or buyers guides. Anything on politics, tech news, crypto, law-suits, etc steer clear from it.
A proper TypeScript debugger for React Native + Vscode that fully supports async, stepping in TS (instead of falling back to .bundle files randomly), breakpoints (instead of randomly deciding not to break) and sagas (generator functions).

Managed funds must pay managers; probably out of the returns.

ETFs (Electronically Traded Funds) have no fund management fees; like Class B stock, ETFs typically are not voting shares (which you don't have when you buy a mutual fund anyways).

Algotraders reference e.g. an S&P 500 ETF as the default benchmark for comparing a portfolio's performance.

Quarterly earnings reports are filed as XBRL XML. A value investor might argue that you don't need to rebalance a portfolio until there is new data about technical fundamentals for technical analysis.

The average bear trades on sentiment and comparatively doesn't at all appropriately hedge; this is part of Behavioral economics, the technical reason why some people actually can outperform the market, imho.

Properly unregulated banks are actually less likely to experience runs.

Backing by USD is not required. As you say, anything they can liquidate is good. Doesn't have to be USD. This works best when you are over-capitalised, ie when you have a thick equity cushion, so that when your assets go down in terms of USD, you still have enough balance sheet assets left to cover all your USD obligations.

You are right that trying to be stable makes things more systematically risky. If Tesla stock drops by 20% over night, some people are going to lose money, but the finance system won't collapse. If supposedly stable assets drop by 20%, everything can go wrong.

That's part of why government backed deposit insurance for banks and too-big-to-fail are problems.

I agree that it's ridiculous to assume everyone disliking the show is a racist.

However your race-bending example is not a good analogy because MLK was a Black rights leader whereas nobody (reasonable) admires queens for their white leadership. The queen's whiteness is not a defining factor in her historical character, at least from white folks' perspective. Compare this to how many Black historical figures do have their blackness as an integral part of their character's story. There is an in-built asymmetry here which makes race-bending arguments unconvincing.
