> Why would I buy equity in a new business shooting to become a medium sized business?

It's at least conceivable that there is a spot on the risk/reward tradeoff this kind of thing could address quite distinct from VC or PE backed companies. Not at all clear, and liquidity would have to be contracted around.
In many regions / castes, the last name is specific to a caste. Also sometimes you can tell by appearance, e.g. I can often recognize Brahmins from my ancestral region just by looking at them.

That said, one of the reasons I'm really skeptical claims that casteism is widespread in Silicon valley is that I have a last name that's caste-ambiguous (could be anything from dalit to brahmin) and yet I've never been asked my caste. So it's rather bizarre that casteism could be so widespread without me having ever encountered it.

One more sad nail in the coffin of general-purpose computing devices.
It's absolutely a side effect of using Ubuntu -- I had to build ZFS (was quite easy) to get newer versions on Ubuntu and do a bit to prevent the system from picking up the default version (pakages & *-dkms packages)
I see the opposite actually. Are you saying all of those arguments are incorrect without disputing them? All of the “even if..” stuff doesn’t that only make a stronger case? I wouldn’t call myself a fanboy but it seems like you may definitely be a hater, but why?

Thank you. I appreciate your comments. It does make sense that most of the heat from a gas stove does not go into the cooking vessel. In fact I often use the electric kettle to speed cooking by pre-boiling water, then adding it to the cooking pot. And I also can see that the unvented exhaust from the combustion of the gas is unhealthy. And also, that leaks of gas into the atmosphere from poorly maintained pipes adds significant further greenhouse gases, as we know natural gas is a far worse greenhouse gas than CO2.

Regarding, the timing of it all, I guess at the root my attitude here, is one of frustration, where ... we have known about this for literally 100 years, but we just don't care. Now we make theatrical laws, but current events are more of the same: warmongering and blowing one another up is more interesting than actually addressing our biggest problem: climate change.

But by all means I am all for whatever we can do and I agree we should do all the helpful things ASAP.

My concern with the law was that I honestly wasn't entirely convinced it's actually the right thing to do. But I certainly appreciate those three points you made above.

Do you feel this law makes sense as well for colder areas that require homes to be heated?
Proper policing actually requires quite some skill. In fact, perhaps US police training is a bit short compared to other countries. Especially given the somewhat more dangerous environment they work in.

I think a union might be beneficial. I think few unions would be against investments in more training.
Another one. These folks are practically morons. We need an open source, verified credit rating algorithms. Credit rating should be treated with the same respect as computer security.
I imagine it would go like writing a good C library for Python, where the PyResult<> wrappers disappear as you move deeper into your code and away from the interface. Hopefully working with Python objects on the outside won't require using references everywhere on the inside.
I think it's an option, but I admit not one I was aware of. AFAIK the MP is a framework, and this is an option not the only way... but still, you're again!

I'll do some reading, thanks.
The issue wasn't cutting down trees. We've had notions of managed forests fro thousands of years. The problem was that we were now Clear Cutting an entire forest to a barren flatland. Those wouldn't return to forest for years if ever and represented huge habitat loss the local flora and fauna.

No, you were always much better off installing Python yourself than using the system's Python, which mostly served to get in the way.
I grocery shop with my toddlers first thing in Saturday morning and our first stop is TJs. I only buy about a dozen different products at TJs but they're all staples in our weekly meals / snacks. Checkout is never a problem early in the morning.
I'm curious about the valuation aspect. How can you 'exit at $50M' with your 20% if there is no IPO?

And public or not, who is going to buy those shares if their prospect is now down to a 2.7x return: invest $10M for a $27M return ($27m revenue in 5 years, x5 revenue multiple, 20% ownership), and an even less likely exit?

The whole VC pipeline is based on growth.
This bit at the end made me do a double-take, about the impression that was emerging from what I'd read thus far:

> It can be said that there were no Russian projects this year, but I was very unpleasantly surprised by the negligence of the moderators who allowed several projects from Ukraine to use the contest platform for unworthy political statements and posting spam links to resources unrelated to the contest.

But then I considered that maybe it is best when a writer is candid about things that potentially bias their assessments, or could be perceived to. Maybe better than reading an assessment of X, and it later turns out that the writer had an undisclosed conflict of interest, or entirely separate reason for being upset about X.

(BTW, I don't know the exact nature of the "political statements" from Ukraine, but I suspect I'd find it hard to blame someone whose country is being invaded, for calling out for help however they can. And I could imagine moderators being hesitant to censor some things. I think most all of us want peace and prosperity for everyone, and have especial empathy in some situations.)
Yikes.

Maybe if we didn't "defund the police" and treat them like guilty criminals, we wouldn't be in this problem.
Damn, lots of strawman rage in the responses. Remember that I'm still gripping the controls and looking out the window. I don't allow the system into any kind of corner case unless I am the only one on the road. Letting the computer attempt to drive straight on the highway while a practiced and skeptical driver is ready to take over does not feel like a blatant compromise of public safety. Every incident I've encountered was very easy to handle, with lots of margin for reaction. Hopefully everyone practices this kind of regard for others while still allowing emerging technology to have a path for safe testing in the real world.
Mine made a bunch of posts quoting another post that got trips, which was an ID not in the thread. It makes sense that it would generate those, but it's not great as output.

I have noticed the same thing with Christmas trees. They lose their "tiny green things" (name?) earlier.

Maybe picker/cutter shortages? Like instead of picking the strawberries or cutting trees with 10 people in one week 5 people do it in two weeks? To fill up one truck load.
We generate a static website using Hugo and a documentation theme. [1] Non-technical members of our team can use Markdown easily and publish changes on their own schedule thanks to a very simple but sturdy CI/CD setup (GitHub Actions and NGINX).

Stripe's documentation is way over-engineered and wasteful IMO, and probably requires a massive team to maintain.

It's also an exotic, scary risk, as opposed to a familiar risk we've come to accept, like the risks of nuclear power versus the risks of fossil fuel power. We'll never compare a death from one fairly with a death from the other because one feels extra and the other feels normal.

A future in which self-driving cars kill 3,000 people per year in the U.S. sounds unimaginably grotesque to most people, even though that's less than a tenth of the number of people killed by human-driven cars.

That’s talking about pollution in general rather than greenhouse gas emissions like the post I was responding to.

When it comes to CO2, personal vehicles emit several times more carbon than the entire global shipping fleet.
Which traditional mores might you have in mind, and how would you suggest others (North Americans?) should think about them?
None of this is scary though…
Depends on what you mean by faster. Do you mean "time to solution" or "time to inference"? I think there are also more factors to take into consideration when considering the merit of the method e.g. performance, robustness, ability to handle non-linearity, ability to solve the full online problem etc.

When all these factors are taken into account, I have encountered situations where Deep RL performed better.

There are also very public examples of this e.g. Google's data center cooling [0] and competitive sailing [1].

Are you thinking of electric coil? Induction heats up super fast (way faster than gas or electric coil) because the stove itself doesn’t get warm - it transfers energy directly into the pan.
The meaning of the word can change and it will change sooner or later, in Anglo-sphere or somewhere else.

Historically, the meaning of "rationalism" changed both trough time and cultures.

The way "rationalism" is being used by the lesswrong crowd is currently accepted for example by Polish dictionaries:

Rationalism ( https://sjp.pwn.pl/sjp/racjonalizm;2573228.html ):

3. "a position requiring the observance of restrictive standards of the scientificity of knowledge"

Also from: Williams B., Rationalism, [w:] D.M. Borchert (red.), Encyclopedia of Philosophy, t. VIII, Thomson Gale, 2006, s. 239-247, ISBN 0-02-866072-2.

Rationalism in the enlightenment

The term rationalism is often loosely used to describe an
outlook allegedly characteristic of some eighteenth-
century thinkers of the Enlightenment, particularly in
France, who held an optimistic view of the power of sci-
entific inquiry and of education to increase the happiness
of humankind and to provide the foundations of a free
but harmonious social order. In this connection “ratio-
nalistic” is often used as a term of criticism, to suggest a
naive or superficial view of human nature that overesti-
mates the influence of benevolence and of utilitarian cal-
culation and underestimates both the force of destructive
impulses in motivation and the importance of such non-
rational factors as tradition and faith in the human econ-
omy. Jean d’Alembert, Voltaire, and the Marquis de
Condorcet, among others, are often cited in this connec-
tion. Although there is some truth in these criticisms, the
naïveté of these and other Enlightenment writers has
often been grossly exaggerated. Also, insofar as “reason” is
contrasted with “feeling” or “sentiment,” it is somewhat
misleading to describe the Enlightenment writers as
rationalistic, for many of them (Denis Diderot, for exam-
ple) characteristically emphasized the role of sentiment.
Reason was praised in contrast with faith, traditional
authority, fanaticism, and superstition. It chiefly repre-
sented, therefore, an opposition to traditional Christian-
ity.

Here there are two contrasts with the seventeenth-
century rationalism of Descartes and others. First, this
rationalism is not characteristically antireligious or non-
religious; on the contrary, God in some sense, often in a
traditional sense, plays a large role in rationalist systems
(although Spinoza’s notion of God was extremely
unorthodox, and it is notable that the opposition of rea-
son and faith is important in his Tractatus Theologico-
Politicus). Second, the view of science held by such
Enlightenment thinkers as Voltaire was different from
that of rationalism, being much more empiricist. The
central contrast embodied in the term rationalism as
applied to the earlier systems is that of reason versus
experience, a contrast that is certainly not present in the
Enlightenment praise of the “rational.”
Similar features! LK is a smattering of a bunch of libraries and original code. Prosemirror is foundational to the app, and we recently added tldraw for diagramming.
This doesn’t belong here. But I will say this: Those suggesting the world would be largely unchanged in a post-coup USA fail to grasp the scope of the ramifications. No where on the planet would be safe/unchanged. Do not go there.
I can't imagine a cop anywhere in the world responding well to the phrase "unsurprising because you were following me too closely," especially if s/he already thinks you were brake checking them!
I don't even know how to respond to this!
Interesting that is the case elsewhere. Our local stores are not always more expensive. We have one high end chain, one average chain, and one lower end chain all of which are local to the region. Walmart is usually on par or even slightly more expensive in some cases than the average option.
Propane is a good alternative, especially for the home cook. With good ventilation, charcoal is an option too. Both can actually be hotter that the standard or pro gas stove.

2. We use Ahrefs and I hope their search algorithms are better and cleaner than their keyword database which is great but also full of random typos.

Thanks, that was an amusing read!
Hashcash is an interesting idea and very creative. But I do think you're right. It may impose reasonable limits on a single computer. But if an attacker has a botnet they can still send out a crap load. Botnets and spam practically go hand-in-hand as-is, so I don't see how hashcash helps there.

Still... it is a creative idea.
It's like Google Maps + Wikipedia, but for fictional places.
That's what they said about socrates.
I wonder how this law will play with documentation that requires the recipient to sign an NDA. I know Framework, for example, only gives full schematics to repair shops after they sign an NDA (due to NDA on some pinouts or something); will everyone obtaining full schematics through this law be required to sign an NDA as well?

I'm currently writing an async rust application. I think the biggest thing to avoid coding yourself into a corner with async rust is to prefer transferring ownership over using references when possible. Channels are a great way of doing this, and likewise communicating with sync code
I was one of those whiny kids, lol. Always the high point of our cross country trips in the old ‘72 Impala when my dad would get tired of driving and say “What do you kids think about hitting a HoJo’s?”
Yea the original post reads like "you cannot get rusts' async to do anything useful" and then there were hundreds of trolls jumping in "the language is unreadable" train. "oh yeah, no one can actually use rust". Uh okay... That's why I've been using it in production for two years ok...

Async is hard, that said it really does work just fine.

>Yes, the fishing industry is to blame for shipping caught fish from USA to china and back, and the whole thing is very absurd.

I don't see how it's any more absurd than manufacturing iPhones in China only to have it shipped half way across the world to the American consumer.
Starting in 12.3, macOS won't ship with any version of Python anymore. You have to install it first.
A multithreaded runtime that is shared for all functions in the app - that other synchronous code then "blocks_on" - will also work. Or e.g. having a cached thread_local tokio runtime.

Btw:

> And there really isn't much in there so you didn't need to worry about performance or anything like that.

Actually you have to! In case you write a program that spawns background threads (with whatever async runtime), and then let your foreground thread interact with that - it will have performance implications since your program now does additional context switches. It might or might not matter for your application, but in general it's rather easy to lose all perf benefits that async code actually might provide by still requiring switches between full threads.
^ It's this. I haven't been honked at yet, but I have felt a little apologetic to people behind me. I recently updates my follow distance from 3 to 4 and its helped tremendously.
> But in the business realm, you have no privacy whilst your at work on work devices,

Only because some people decided that should be so, and other people worked to ensure it happened. You state it like it's an immutable law of the universe, but it's a choice we collectively make, and a policy we enact. Or, a choice we passively allowed others to make for us, and a policy we allowed others to enact upon us.
As mentioned in another thread: not anymore.

I have one also, it worked with my old door chime but I replaced my chime anyway as it would only ring 1 of the chimes.

I also like Eufy since the videos are stored onto SD cards. I guess that means that other than the still shots that are sent to your phone, an enterprising thief could smash the camera and steal the card and you would only have a single photo to go off of though.
That won't work either, since macOS won't come with python 3
It’s possible. This reminds me of the partnership between GM and Suzuki.
Please first consider testing this in Death Valley or some other low resource desert maybe in Texas near SpaceX. Better yet, make that the proving grounds. After a person passes their extensive psychological evaluation and sign all their legal waivers then they spend one year in the desert in a space suit. If at any point they take their suit off outside of the environmentally controlled pod they are out of the program. If anyone damages a pod everyone in that pod not in their suit is out of the program.

I assume SpaceX must have reviewed all the previous biodome / biosphere [1] experiments and learned from all their lessons, failures and successes. [2][3]

Consider also using the participants psychological evaluations and personality tests to group people together correctly so that they inter-operate well together in most aspects. Team up with the DoD and find some marines or army special forces that want to earn some special duty hazard pay.

Both are not the same scenario, which the headline seems to conflate.
You're more critical of somebody claiming Jamie Dimon wasn't guilty for insufficiently supporting their argument despite citing an encyclopaedia, than you are the person who said "wasn't Jamie Dimon one of the individuals who was largely responsible for the last "economic hurricane""

Seems like quite the double standard. Sure, an argument based on Wikipedia isn't that strong, but he made a well supported argument relative to the rest of the thread and only he is getting crapped on. Even I made a less supported argument than he did.

I'm getting ~3.10GiB/s with both GNU's and FreeBSD's. I do see that GNU's version has some optimizations, but their effectiveness isn't apparent when doing `yes | pv > /dev/null`.

However, my point was just that its performance was never a main point of it. Even without optimizations, it's still very fast, and I don't think whoever created it first was concerned with it having to be super fast, as long as it was faster than the prompts of whatever was downstream in the pipe.
why does everyone assume that humans are supposed to be carbon neutral.........it's not based in anything except postulated opinions.....
