Ratings systems suffer from an 'outlier syndrome', where most ratings are from folks at the ends of the bell-curve. Even averaging such data doesn't come close to any kind of true measure.

One can imagine Police work would be subject to such effects even more strongly, as they deal often with people at their worst. It's the job after all.

There seems to be an assumption that "master" is always paired with "slave", but not only is "master/servant" a more common pairing, "master" is obviously a very common word/prefix/suffix with various meanings whose usage normally has nothing to do with subjugation of anybody.

A chess grandmaster does not imply the existence of chess grandslaves. The Sega Master System didn't enslave other game systems. A master key is just a key with wider scope than the regular keys.

Having a year or so of savings seems like a great idea generally, if you can swing it (and once the savings buffer is established, it doesn't require more tending). It switches many financial problems out of the "emergency" class, and emergencies are expensive to deal with.

It is sort of like the opposite of an emergency credit card.
Doesn't it only take two quarters of lower GDP growth from the prior two quarters for it to be a recession? Like there is no moving average, there is no high watermark, its such a easy to hit metric that its remarkable we don't have this more often.

You cannot charge fast past a high state of charge, mostly because you don’t want to overload the battery cells by having a too high voltage.

Cars that charge that fast to 100% either do not care about not destroying the battery, which makes sense in a racing context without sustainability concerns, or the 100% reported by the battery management system is a lot lower than the maximum state of charge possible.

That’s why you cannot find common electric cars that charge to 100% in 15 minutes. But you will find some that can charge fast for 15 minutes and that’s what matters.
Which is why their rating is still counted, but its biased by what society thinks of the person doing the rating. Perfect shouldn't be the enemy of better here. If ratings are something people want to do, you have to bias ratings with additional context, otherwise there is no mechanism to help separate ratings from honest and dishonest people.

(there are the giant paella pans, and then there's the FIRE!)

====
I fell in love with making the fire. Until one day I told my dad, why don't you let me cook?
He said, no, I need you to do the fire. Yeah, but I know how to make the fire.
Make somebody else make the fire. I want to cook. No, I need you to do the fire.
Paella and fire, hand by hand. If you don't have the right fire, it will never be a right paella.
One day, he got very upset, very upset, a big tantrum. He sent me to the forest, "Go to the forest."
When we finished, he came and said, "My son, I know you were upset because I'm not letting you cook and you think that cooking
is the most important part. But, actually, I gave you the most important task.
That was making the fire. If you control the fire, then and only then one day,
you'll be able to cook." Since then, I've been always trying to search what really is my fire, what really
is what holds everything else. The cooking is the obvious. When we are able to achieve success in the non-obvious
is when things begin moving.

Seven ideals for local-first software:

1. No spinners: your work at your fingertips

2. Your work is not trapped on one device

3. The network is optional

4. Seamless collaboration with your colleagues

5. The Long Now

6. Security and privacy by default

7. You retain ultimate ownership and control

I love the idea of local-first software based on the name but Im having a hard time understanding these ideals. Skimming through the rest of the text doesn't seem to be helping.

What exactly makes software local-first? Like in concrete practical terms?
The email I received when I was accepted to the private beta in December said, "Kagi is free during the beta, but will rely on membership in the future." More recently, an email in mid-May notified users about the specifics of the shift to a public beta and the introduction of free/premium tiers. I feel they've done a decent job keeping their users apprised of the changes.

It's important not to overthink this - You're a specialist at being you, more specifically you have a bundle of skills, some of which will be useful to people with both problems and money. All you can really do is to isolate those skills, give them a name, and offer that as a service.

Based on your original description - you are an expert in "back office" skills.
This sounds extremely similar the ~century-ago situation in American feminism. Lesser right for women of "lesser" racial, religious, social, etc. backgrounds were, ah, not much of a concern.
> The more money the government prints the more the stock market goes up.

This printing nonsense forgets that accounting is a two sided relationship ...

Yeah sure the government does something but did it initiate or did it respond to something someone else initiated.

Instead of arguing the government did something, you can equally argue that the private sector did the opposite. Remember the earn more than you spend story that everyone is supposed to follow? It is obviously impossibly because where is the saved money coming from? Someone needs to obligate themselves to be liable for those savings and it turns out the government wants to be liable.

If the stock market is booming, expect it to be the result of people earning and therefore producing more than they spend and therefore consume. The excess has to be invested somehow and the most prominent investments are available on the stock market. That is the reason why the stock market is going up so high and interest rates are so low. Lots of people producing and investing the surplus. Not many consuming the surplus.

The moment people produce and save but don't invest, you get deflation which generally results in unemployment and debt defaults which is undesirable. So the government acts as the borrower or consumer of last resort.

What would the market look like if we corrected for the money supply? You would see negative or zero yields in the stock market.
I don't see the full context. Isn't that in the context of aquatic life?

Not quite. The problem with the way the law is drafted is that the court could have just as easily (and perhaps more likely) applied the legal rule of construction known as noscitur a sociis (Latin, it is known by its associates) and interpreted "invertebrate" in context to mean something more like wet invertebrate.

That, ultimately is what makes the drafters of the pertinent amendment to the statute look sloppy, like they do not know what they are doing. The court could have reasonably gone either way, and without some failure prone inquiry into legislative history they may not have any way to tell what the legislature intended.

The doctrine of noscitur a sociis is simply shorthand for a standard way to resolve ambiguities like this, but the court used a different rule, making the legislature look silly for allegedly defining all invertebrates as fish for the purposes of this statute. Allegedly.
Actually, this wacky judge did say bees are fish. The reasoning goes like this. The statute says that the definition of fish included invertebrates (having no backbone). While technically, fish are not invertebrates, the legislature obviously meant to include other forms of aquatic life, like invertebrates, into the definition of fish, for instance sea slugs.

Now, there are terrestrial invertebrates as well, for instance, bees. No reasonable person would think that the legislature meant to include terrestrial invertebrates into the definition of fish. But, that's what this judge did, giving the absurd result that bees are fish.
> a state where the police/government has a monopoly on violence is the dystopia

“State“ or “government“ is just whoever, taken together, has a monopoly on legitimate violence in a particular (usually geographically bounded) context.

So, apparently, dystopia is universal.
> Realize that probability is useful in poker but not that useful in life, thus it is impossible to calculate mathematical expectation.

That's very backwards. Sure, "exact" expectation no. But you can add errors bars to all your estimates, that's the basis of statistics. Being able to correctly estimate things and adjust for uncertainty is incredibly useful in life. Unlike poker, you have time to actually punch things into a calculator and consider different scenarios if you want to be super diligent but most things can be intuited if you have a solid grasp of probability/statistics. To be super pragmatic, the whole thing with fake news and misinformation wouldn't exist if people just applied Bayes theorem. For instance, people will say something like P(vaccine is dangerous | bad pharma company) = 1 but then P(bad pharma) = 0 in the sense that Pfizer doesn't want to kill people.
It shows that most people are nice, and try to do the right thing even if mistakes can happen.

However, it is sad that PR campaigns are required to reach out to an actual human being who cares.
Other way around imo. How a cop treats someone they view as a "scumbag" is a lot more illustrative and important than how they treat those they view as "upstanding people."

I don't think the system described in the article is good either, but this isn't why. A big part of the problem with the current policing system is that cops treat some groups completely differently from how they treat others. "Upstanding" is as good a euphemism for it as any I guess but we should eliminate that not formalize it.
They specifically did not do that. The court tracked down the origin of this change in the definition of the law, and the legislature at the time was acting in part to preserve an endangered terrestrial snail. If they'd meant "aquatic invertebrates", that's what they'd have said.

> In an average year, about 39% of California's water consumption, or 34.1 million acre-feet (42.1 km3), is used for agricultural purposes. Of that total, 11%, or 8.9 million acre-feet (11.0 km3) is not consumed by the farms for crop production but is instead recycled and reused by other water users, including environmental use, urban use, and agricultural use, yielding net water consumption for food and fiber production equal to 28% of California's water consumption, or 25.2 million acre-feet (31.1 km3). [0]

The 80% figure is false.

> In a normal year the CVP delivers about 7 million acre-feet of water for agricultural, urban, and wildlife use. [1]

Suffice to say the CVP supplies a significant portion of California's water. It is the largest such project in the country.

> betting that nobody who will own copyright to code in the CDDL is going to sue anytime in the next 80ish years would be dumb even ignoring the fact that Oracle owns copyright to at least some of that code right now, and they are quite litigious.

When I wrote this, I was under the impression that US law more or less required copyrights to be regularly defended in order to maintain any "legal weight", but on Googling, it seems that while the awards in a case where a copyright was undefended until some significant time had passed, were lesser, it was still quite defensible. So I guess, fuck, that kind of sucks in a way, because it incentivizes patent trolling/hoarding/squatting, but it also makes it possible for someone without significant financial backing to benefit from a patent without having to afford good and regular legal defense.

That's one hell of a damn tradeoff.

A possibly better system would perhaps be one similar to what happens in the music biz in which a company takes a cut of any wins or profits by providing someone substantial legal representation in the defense of their copyrighted works.
Not "lower" GDP growth. Negative growth.
In the US, traditionally it has been marked by 2 consecutive quarters of declining GDP but I think the definition is moving away from that, in part because it is such a lagging indicator, and may not be representative of a lot of other factors within an economy.

Generally though we are looking for a couple month period of time in declining employment, GDP, etc...overall health of the economy.

if submodules work for you, there’s no point in changing how you’re working.

that said, monorepos solve a certain set of real problems for organizations by allowing contributions across code bases from one VCS repository, and by reframing the release/deploy pipeline around singular atomic refs. the impact is multiplicative and happens in downstream tooling and processes. they squash some problems in one place in the org (product development) that bubble up elsewhere (devops/release engineering). depending on the org this is a sensible/cost effective approach.

submodules don’t really accomplish either of those things, unless I’m missing something about your workflow.
