Oh I agree, there's definitely an overlap with the business world and it's not unusual for a business to pursue an expensive (and doomed) moonshot the exec hope will work on the one hand whilst obsessing over comparatively minor productivity differences and cost savings possible in the divisions that actually build and maintain and sell existing product, or for investors to rigorously audit growth metrics for a business that is actually groiwng and then chuck money at other founders despite their pitch because they have a hunch the founders are really good people (but didn't Reddit do well!). I just think it makes the whole thing a lot less "rational" and a lot more we have heuristics that select for people and organizations we like - like other forms of philanthropy - than claimed. And yeah, sometimes that works out just fine.
This is such a naive take. Most corn is used as feedstock. This is hugely important to production of animal protein, which humans eat.

Just because we don't eat the corn directly, doesn't mean we aren't eating the corn.

This would be like saying "only 1% of water is actually consumed by humans, so we don't need to worry about water shortages". The world just isn't that simple.

I personally don’t find that to be true. Time for some objective anecdata.

There is a site [0] that ranks how “mainstream” one’s listening habits are based on their last.fm profile.

Punching in my username, I get ranked as 12% mainstream (i.e., only 12% of last.fm users listen to music more obscure than mine). Keep in mind, this is relative to last.fm users, whose musical tastes are probably more obscure than the general population.

Approximately 95% of my lossless library is on Spotify or Apple Music. So I’d say they’re doing a pretty good job maintaining a comprehensive catalog.

> I've never understood the Spotify love.

I started using it when it was launched or shortly after, before most of the alternatives (including Youtube Music) even existed. It was great ~10 years ago.

I still use it because I'm invested into it: we have our premium family account, with all smart speakers configured to play songs using it, we have playlists, out of the music I like I know what's available and what's missing and I have acquired what's missing by other means (but switching to another service would mean different songs/artists would be missing, etc.)

Compound that with lack of time (work, parenting, etc.) and while the Spotify UX has really gone downhill, it would have to get really, really bad for me to switch...

The past few years have taught me that, in the age of social media, nothing so unequivocally bad can happen that people wouldn’t be blaming it on mainstream media.

Dictator invades neighboring country, says their people don’t have a right to exist? The mainstream media is to blame for using a word I didn’t like. Dictator’s propaganda channel is removed from distribution? A conspiracy by the mainstream media and their political cronies. Etc.

It does make it much easier to understand the Americans who in 1939 were saying “Hitler is not our problem — at least he’s not a communist — look at the good job he’s done cleaning up the radical left — the press is out to get him — why should we hurt our own economy by not trading with Germany?”
It wasnt heavily armed & riot police deployments that surprised me it was their deployment in what seemed like fairly quiet upper middle class neighborhoods.

I only saw that once before - in altamira caracas.

Ive seen plenty of armed police in Italy but they were focused in highly trafficked city centre/touristy areas. Italy seems pretty excessively militarized but the pattern of deployment is normal.

Maybe it'd be neat.. but, I think sometimes "the map is not the territory" goes both ways. - I probably want a diagram to be simpler than the actual system.

With a manually constructed diagram, I have leverage to handwave irrelevant details away.

Perhaps to compare with documentation: it's easy to automatically describe things like types, and maybe callgraphs, but there's value in having prose which explains details about the interface which the program's type doesn't reveal. - With diagrams to visualise a system, the significance (or incidental nature) of the relationships may be hard to pick automatically.

Well, Erdogan agrees with you and results are clear.

The argument is wrong, mostly because even if deposit and borrow rates were equal (they aren't), central bank offers and charges it on MB, but borrow rate is in the end charged on all loans in existence - much larger than MB.

1. someone borrows (new) $100 from the central bank at the variable central bank rate - currently 0%

2. someone buys something for that $100

3. that $100 is loaned to yet another person at the variable rate

4. that person buys something with it, the buyer deposits $100 to the central bank

At the end there's: $100 in the central bank. Loans for $200. Increasing the interest rate to 1% increases total liabilities by $2 after one year, but total base money only to $101. That's a deficit of $1. In other words demand for money has increased relative to the supply. This mechanism explains why more advanced economies can function with lower interest rates - because even a small base rate has a high multiplier, while in simple economies the multiplier is low. There are more implementation details in practice but the fundamental mechanism stays the same.

> Sanctions have to hurt to be effective.

While true, I think it’s the wrong criticism in this case, as the necessity of hurt has to be at the target of the sanctions rather than at the one imposing them.

Rather:

The sanctions that appeared after the Russian annexation of Crimea were the painless ones. The current situation is so much worse for EU interests that the EU feels it needs to demonstrate that it is willing to experience at least some discomfort in order to prevent Russian aggression.

This is just giving up. AWS and the also rans are better at everything than companies whose executives play golf well, the serious companies you speak of. If the business plan is to target businesses that aren’t really in software and they don’t plan to have customers who are growing fast either what’s the point?

Yes, there can still be side-channel and out-of-band attacks in FV systems. For example, pouring water into the server rack. That’s a cheeky example, but things like timing side-channels via speculative execution and cache hits wouldn’t be addressed by FV at the software level. I think there is some ongoing research for verifying software/hardware interactions but I’m not aware of a product in widespread use that checks this.

The use of constant-time algorithms for crypto is a way to mitigate things like timing side-channels, and there are other techniques like disabling hyper-threading that can help.

The depressing fact is that side channels exist any time there’s a shared computing resource. The question is how noisy the channel is, the data rate, etc.

This isn't a tool for generating diagrams from actual code, but I have really enjoyed using PlantUML lately while putting together design or architecture proposals: https://plantuml.com

Not sure why I should care what Gold, or anything, will be worth in 100 years, let alone 500 years. Economies turn over money supplies on time scales of a year or two, not centuries. Individuals and business need stability over planning cycles that run from years to a few decades at most.

And it's not like precious metal based currencies were stable over long periods anyway. There is nothing in the working of economies that guarantees that precious metals will accumulate in sync with economic growth and contraction. Trying to tie one to the other is every bit as much "fiat" economics as an untethered currency, like the dollar.
If I'm a decent Human being I'd rather no company helps criminals do crime stuff.

The standards to turn over such information should not be decided by a private entity but by democratically enacted and enforced laws. Is enforcement of child porn prosecution "absolutely necessary"? Are death threats ok? Where's the line? I don't think a private company sitting in an unaccountable jurisdiction should make that decision. I trust German courts a lot more in that regard.

That tool from Microsoft comes closest to what I think would be ideal, generated diagrams that aren't static and where you can include/exclude and move around components. It would definitely have to be language specific, but once things catch on IDEs implement language specific plugins soon after.
One of the problems is: what is the language to describe these diagrams? We do have UML and it's various variants: PlantUML, Mermaid but these are too low level to prescribe conventions over how to use these to describe complex architectures. A sequence diagram could describe anything through customer journeys, rest api call patterns to call stacks within a VM. Granularity/level of abstraction needs to be captured or else you end up with metres squared of boxes that cannot be parsed at a glance unless you're Rainman.

The closest I found that solves this problem is https://c4model.com/ but you still need the code to turn your code into these markups. Can this be well inferred from code alone without framework specific interpreters? I doubt it.

And then you still need a frontend to zoom and navigate the ridiculous amount of hierarchy found within any modern software architecture, e.g microservices.

It also doesn't help microservices patterns also prescribe that you don't share repositories or code. So now you also need to pattern match untyped references across these codebases.

This is a lot of convention and tooling that I'm not sure exists.

Edit: and this is before even getting into version control and reconciling the target->as-is iterative loop.

Teslas have one crash for every 4.31 million miles driven with autopilot engaged versus one crash per every 480k for non-Tesla drivers, so autopilot is averting almost 90% of all crashes. There’s no evidence at all of any “it scares other drivers into safety” mechanism, which is to be expected because such a mechanism seems absurd on its face.
What does that have to do with anything?? If you're taking inputs that are used to produce food (feedstock, ferts, acreage etc) away from food production, this will create inflationary price pressures.

>These two numbers, "1" and "4000" have no obvious relation to the value one places on one's life compared to the lives of others.

If you think donating a kidney has a 1:4000 chance of killing you, and a 1:1 chance of saving someone else's life, then I do think deciding not to do it is saying that you value your continued existence 4000x someone else's. We can argue about the specific numbers, and about whether this is the best way to apply your life to helping others, but I don't think the interpretation is wrong.

> For example, "4000" is not the number of others lives saved by donating one kidney.

I don't think see anyone claiming that?

> By donating one kidney one can "save" one other person's life at most

Often you're able to save more than one: it is reasonably common for altruistic donors to be able to facilitate donation chains that would not otherwise happen. The situation is that there are many people who are willing to give a kidney to help a specific person they know, but who are not compatible donors. One way that can work out is that I give my kidney to your friend, and you give your kidney to my friend: no altruistic donor needed. But often this doesn't quite work out in terms of compatibility, and having an altruistic donor can make multiple transplants happen that wouldn't otherwise.

>it's not really "saving" as it is delaying the inevitable

That's right. Especially considering that even post transplant the recipient is going to be on immunosuppressive drugs and is not likely to have the same duration or quality of life as the typical person. Often when talking about this, people use the concept of a QALY: how many quality-adjusted life years is it?

> Equally dodgy is the calculation of "1/3,000 risk of death in surgery is like sacrificing yourself to save 3,000 people" earlier in the article.

Why is this calculation dodgy?

(While I strongly admire people who have donated kidneys, I don't think it is a very good trade-off of cost to yourself versus benefit to others, and personally I still have both kidneys)
Not exactly a farm, in the UK you can get allotments for virtually nothing (£50 a year for half an acre) which I do.

They put their name on it. They made appearances. They took a huge paycheck despite already being millionaires and not needing it.

So they own it as much as the 1st 2nd or 3rd. They did not have to do that. In fact it would have been an even stronger statement if every review of the 4th started off with "done without the original creators input or approval".

But now the 4th has been done with the original creators input and approval, so it's their fault, their mess.

In hindsight you can now see the wonder and amazement of the first movies were not just from them but everyone that worked so hard for them, not just the actors but everyone behind the scenes, even the clever color timing, completely absent from the 4th as well as the horrible music, everyone just phoned it in for the paycheck.

"Because someone else would do it if we didn't" is not a viable excuse, it would have been a statement otherwise, a path they purposely didn't chose for either ego or profit.
