Nothing like those speakers, agreed.

In a more normal office setting, I am far more inclined to use the built in speaker and mic combo myself when using my Apple device.

Otherwise, my goto is actually the Samsung AKG pack in earbuds that came with my Note phones. Mic is great, audio quality also great. Those have a wire.

I do not mind a wire. Always works.
I think you’re talking past each other a bit.

The demand you’re talking about in the SF Bay Area is not necessarily driven by ‘butts in seats’ (aka actual people needing a roof and willing to pay a concrete price for it), but also by the cheap money narrative the FED has been feeding for a very long time. Which is what they are referring to in their post as having changed.
I’ve done the print and trace for bizarre bugs while trying to understand the code.
I’ve also used UML to work through designing something, or even changing the existing design. UML can be super helpful is working out programming problems without having to spend time writing the code. Your design problems can be worked out quickly with UML. Once you get your design work done and settle on an implementation, the individual class diagrams help determine your order of operations and what you may need to do for the refactoring (which, again, you can plan out in UML).
Executing the plan becomes a matter of implementing your UML designs.

I’ve recently realized that UML is no longer something new developers are aware of. It’s a useful tool in reducing your time for solving problems since you won’t have to write the code as you work through them.

Something related I wonder about: consider seals, sea lions, elephant seals, walruses and whales. In those species are we seeing the process of the convergent evolution of a land occupying species toward a purely oceanic going whale form species, where the boundary between land and sea represents a transitional niche which can be occupied only by evolutionarily unstable forms? So that if you could see a sort of extreme time lapse video of this transitional zone, you would repeatedly see a land animal gravitate toward the sea, be caught by the surf, and then “melt” into it and into the form of a whale, then disappear, to be replaced by another land animal, and so on.

The rationale is that in a correctly written program, an Error should never be thrown. It's similar to UB in C. The compiler can assume Errors are never thrown, and so it can not worry about cleanup in nothrow functions.

But the nice thing is, it reuses the same handling mechanisms as exceptions. You don't have to create something different for handling Errors. In fact, the code that prints error stack traces and exits is the same code that handles exceptions.

Consequently, this is why you shouldn't catch them, or at least not catch them and continue. The exceptions are unittests and contract asserts, where the compiler does guarantee proper stack unwinding.
Second this. Back the day it was "Fulfilled by Amazon" that I looked for, now that changed to either known sellers or sold by Amazon. All others, well, fir the stuff I look for eBay isn't too bad. Exceptions are, e.g., books. As long as the edition is the right one you cannot go wrong regardkess of seller. I do buy less and less from Amazon, so.

Losing confidence? No, I lost that years ago. For quite some time the vast majority of the listings have been drop-shipped AliExpress garbage. Many of them are obvious because of terrible photoshops, randomly named branding, and those strange bold brackets in the product description.

But some can be harder to spot because of tricks that sellers use to essentially hijack listings for other products to carry all the positive reviews along. Or they may just go the route of putting completely fake reviews on the product. Some may even be from verified purchasers because they packed a card along with the product offering compensation for a 5 star review. Or they can get verified reviews in an even slimier way involving ordering from themselves and then shipping random crap to people who've they've sent stuff to before.

And then there's the inventory that's poisoned with counterfeits. Thanks to inventory co-mingling counterfeit and legit products can end up getting mixed together. There's a chance that even buying from a fully legit listing will end up with you getting sent a counterfeit product.

However, despite all of that I do still use Amazon. Their immense investment into logistics means that many things will make it to me next-day. And their return policies allow me to order with the confidence that if I get a fraudulent item (or just something I don't like) it will be fairly painless to get a replacement or my money back.

That said, I have also been making more efforts over the years to not use Amazon. I tend to buy all my major electronics from Best Buy or direct from the manufacturer. And I would never buy any food or medicine from Amazon. I don't want to risk things that go into me being counterfeit.

People make such a big deal about this, but there was a Ford F-150 HEV [0] released in late 2021 (2022 model) that no one seems to talk about. It used the Ford Hybrid PowerBoost V6 engine (3.5L F150 FHEV), and seems to be more than sufficient. Though I haven't driven it myself.

Yip. The whole story is weird.
Every review I’ve left that’s under 5 stars has been rejected for trivial technical reasons. I received a trash can that was heavily scratched and with poor quality hinges. Review rejected because it contained references to “issues that might have occurred during shipping.”

Every product on the site seems to be rated 4.5+, which makes sense if they’re rejecting reviews in this way.
> California's America is not the same as Texas' nor is Florida's the same as Michigan's. It's kind of an absurdity to indicate we're a nation at this point, there are really no points of unity which bond us in this era, and that's what defines a nation. That is to say there are no more Americans.

It's weird how this wasn't the case prior to 2016. Like, I distinctly recall there being a unified American culture and identity. Even between California and Texas, both considered themselves (and one another) Americans despite their differences.
We don't stop at millimeters or kilowatt, so there is really no reason to stop at kilometer when megameter is more appropriate.

Scientific notation is also fine, but "210 megameter" is in my opinion easier to read than "2.1 * 10^8 meters", especially for the casual reader.

The author doesn't single out unions like you do:

While these groups are sometimes at odds with each other, they all join together to fight factory production of homes. They form a mega-monopoly, composed of their individual monopolies.

Where I live there is a community mailbox for the 60 units in the complex. At the mailbox is a recycling bin where we can put the junk mail. My neighbour takes care of the recycling bin and empties it every week. Based on the volume I get and the volume in the bin, I estimate that about half of the units dump the junk mail straight into the bin. I'm sure the rest eventually makes its way into recycling bags at each unit.

Personally, I'm convinced that the recycling system as a whole requires a certain base amount of input material to even function and that junk mail serves a useful purpose by providing a good portion of that base amount of input material.

You're right, but a payout from equity compensation is contingent, already, on those things and a thousand others not happening. It's a lottery and not worth my time trying to guess the odds. Better to use that time enjoying a fair salary to work with interesting people, and then we'll see. Maybe the promise is kept, maybe not.

I think analysing equity compensation carefully is a good idea. But one outcome of that analysis can be, "Yolo, let's just give this a shot, take things a day at a time and enjoy the ride."

I don't think we will ever see power generation via renewables (one industry) approach the scale of anything near carbon emissions (all industry)

You could do some very basic napkin math multiplying the air displacement per turbine (or whatever metric you choose) and multiplying by every turbine that exists, and I'd bet that number would be nowhere near total air displacement from natural causes.

Human CO2 emissions matter precisely because the math has exceeded change from natural causes. And this happens because literally everyone is doing it. IF we cover the planet in wind turbines the same way we cover it with waste C02 then maybe you might have a case.

Not to say renewables aren't without their issues. There are likely a whole host of second- and third-order issues there that have yet to be discovered, let alone resolved. But we would need adoption on a scale far beyond what has been proposed to combat global warming to approach that.
>the effects of radiation exposure for most residents of Pripyat

Chernobyl didn't have much radiation directly radiated, and the residents of Pripyat were relatively promptly evacuated. The Chernobyl impact has been all about fallout. A bunch of Russian soldiers for example who took over Chernobyl 3 month ago and stayed there for a month until retreat, and who did a lot of digging and armor driving without any PPE in one of the most polluted places there - Red Forest - already got acute radiation sickness as a result and the rest will have a lot of problems down the road from all that fallout dust they ingested.

Another example highlighting the fallout - Belarus where the regions most hit by Chernobyl fallout are, ie. Homel and Mogilev, has almost 50% higher cancer rates than Russia and Ukraine (those 2 have pretty close rates between themselves and similar to Belarus patterns of smoking, drinking, nutrition, etc) mostly due to the higher cancer rates in the Homel and Mogilev region. There is also some indications about higher rate of children birth defects and various genetic illnesses there. Those children naturally weren't exposed to Chernobyl's direct radiation, it is its fallout which continues to exist there.

> When I checked back a few years later, the community seemed to be all about surviving the Rapture, I mean “Singularity”, summoning God, I mean the “Friendly AI”, and maximizing the happiness of the expected 10 to the trillion lives in Heaven, I mean the “Simulation”. I found all of that a lot less convincing.

AFAIK - one reason for this shift is because A) people who (want to) work in ML/AI want jobs B) billionaires like to fund shit that strokes their ego (AI > mosquito nets) and C) people who work in the EA field need money too and turns out mosquitos nets aren't super sexy to fund. So, inherently, people in EA will stroke the ego of billionaires with rapture-like projects because they get funding from those projects and they'll probably say stuff that is a bit extreme (along with some psychos just being thrown into any crowd).

I know people who work in EA. It's complicated and difficult to balance. You have to realize - people (billionaires) contribute often just to stroke their own ego... not because they only want to help the world. At best - you can get them to do a split investment on their pet AI project and then a bit on real EA stuff. Otherwise, they'll just not contribute anything - and then you have the same capitalistic issue that you'll always have... too much wealth being concentrated into the hands of a few. The people I know in EA are often like, "Well if I take any money out of these guys - it's better than them having it. They have so much and no one person should have that much. It's inefficiently used by their hoarding."

Eh, it’s a lot more than that. But the paper is specifically pointing out that cost of land seems to be the driving factor, not cost of construction which is relatively flat.

A cheaper manufactured home would of course be nice if looking at costs, but dropping it on a $1.5m acre lot isn’t going to change the math that much.
A while back I did a demo and wanted a diagram to show what was going on. I stumbled on http://www.plantuml.com which did exactly what I wanted: it took mark up and turned it into an image that could be embedded in a github markdown document.

That said, diagrams can either be rare, focused, and useful; or common, unfocused, and distracting. Automated processes tend to generate the latter.
Finland has a large conscription army. Since most Finnish men are trained reserve troops, presumably most of those neo-Nazis are as well. If Russia attacked, they’d get called into service like everybody else unless they have a criminal record that prevents it.

And then online posters would be using this is as proof that Russia has a point with the “denazification” tales they use to justify aggression on other countries’ sovereign territory. “Well, you have to ask why the Finnish army invites Nazis, and now NATO is supplying arms to them too. Just asking questions here that media doesn’t. I am very smart.”

Your question is the source of its own answer: if we want EA to be the most effective force for good it can be, we should make it something people will be glad to be a part of.

It sounds like slight of hand, to say that things aren't optimal purely as a result of people not wanting them to be optimal, but it tracks. An EA that forces people to give up the things that they love is not as successful, on any axis, as one that does not.
