An additional concern about their stETH is whether they generating high yields via the dubious strategy of "recursive staking": stake ETH to get back stETH, borrow ETH using your stETH as collateral, stake the borrowed ETH to get more stETH (repeat). This is very sensitive to the stETH:ETH exchange -- there's some suspicion that Celsius is (or at least was recently) in danger of mass liquidation as the stETH:ETH exchange rate drifts downwards.

> Take the Jetbrains IDEs. I don't mean to offend any VSC fans out there but the Jetbrains IDEs are simply better and more mature in every single way.

I just discontinued my Jetbrains subscription after 10 years or so. Now I'm using VS Code and don't miss anything. My reasons for switching to VS Code are unrelated to the costs but purely due to quality issues and missing or poorly implemented features:

1. For all Jetbrains IDEs, ISO keyboard layout with dead keys doesn't work on Ubuntu based distros. I was baffled when I found out after saying goodbye to Windows lately. When filing a bug I was asked to wade through years old pages of comments to find somewhere someone who posted a workaround that was not compatible with the Toolbox. Well, at least the support could have sent me the instructions to fix it to save me spending an hour to read those threads at Youtrack.

2. Vue 3 support was a disaster for itself. Still, Vue 3 support is very much behind the VS Code extension.

3. Same for Svelte. They are not even working on bugs / feature requests like intellisense in the templates.

4. Same for TailwindCSS. Never ending storing. Don't know and care if Jetbrains got it right by now.

5. Starting maybe 2 years ago, Jetbrains added feature for feature that were just distracting and annoying. This "run command in terminal" thingie for example. They're bloating their IDEs with new (mostly useless stuff) but don't fix essential bugs or get Webstorm back into shape.

6. Datagrip still doesn't (or maybe it does in the meantime) support SQLite STRICT TABLES (version 3.37). The simple answer from Jetbrains was: "The open source lib we're using does not support it so we don't." (Actually the lib (https://github.com/xerial/sqlite-jdbc) is currently unmaintained - another reason to be careful depending on a lib maintained by a single person.). The reply would be perfectly fine for an open source project, but not for a multi billion dollar company I as a customer had payed accumulated several thousand Euros in the last years.

I'm using mainly Go, Rust and several frontend frameworks. VS Code support for those is really good. Many things work much better in VS Code.
It was a suggestion from a Twitter user, and I found it clever.
Have other frameworks had the concept of ["interactive islands"]?
I'd love to know more, but the docs aren't fleshed out yet. Does anyone know of other (documented) frameworks that use this concept?

["interactive islands"]: https://fresh.deno.dev/docs/concepts/islands
Companies implement different behaviors in different markets within the same state within the US; I think you may be giving major corporations too much credit if you suspect that deep down inside they're driven by trivial concerns like shame or genuine concern for customer opinion.

Your friends have ME/CFS. H1N1 was a precipitating factor that triggered it, but it's no longer relevant to the perpetuation of the illness.

If they want help from the traditional medical system, then Mayo's Chronic Fatigue Clinic offers a decent overview of what can be done and they have a good track record of helping patients achieve total or close to total recovery. But the process is not easy and involves several wholesale lifestyle changes for a sustained period of time (6-12 months) and then what is essentially a lifelong commitment to managing personal wellbeing.
Among other reasons I’ve been thinking the same.

I have two coworkers looking to buy. They both keep “waiting for the crash”. But I’ve tried to explain to them, they’re getting beat out on every place they look at with over-asking cash offers. If there “is a crash” they will be at the same place they are now.

They need new construction to improve availability, or they need a scenario with there is mass unemployment that doesn’t effect their jobs.

> This is a particularly absurd example,

It _sounds_ like a particularly absurd example, but I do not have an in-depth understanding of the court case, the evidence, the department policies, and the law that lead to this verdict. These days I withhold judgement.

> but more subtle versions of this policy show up in many large police departments. For example, the NYPD requires half of a college degree at a rock-bottom GPA[1], and has been agitating for the current mayor (himself an ex-cop) to drop even that requirement[2].

I don't see the similarity. That looks like a minimum, not a "maximum" requirement.

I also don't see why a college degree should be required of a police officer at all. They should be able to get training on the job. A college degree (or part of one) requirement inflates degrees and excludes people with disadvantaged backgrounds who are likely to have grown up in and connections with communities most impacted by crime, and it probably doesn't select for important qualities, in my opinion. Although that's another story and I don't really have evidence for that belief.

Here Maps is best out of those screenshots, but none of them are great.

What I can't stand about Google Maps is how it hides so much stuff if you're not zoomed in 1000x. The worst time was when I was trying to trace a 100km long logging road in northern British Columbia to get to a provincial camp site on a lake, but as soon as I zoomed out to get a broader picture it would disappear. Even though that was the only road within a 15 km radius. Nope, you can only see a 1km section at a time, and it's so thin and low-contrast that it's barely visible.
So ... you're saying ... that it "doesn't matter" if you can send money in the most convenient way possible ... it just matters that it's possible?

Ok ... so then ... why do people seem to consistently en masse choose to do it "the most convenient way possible" with things like WhatsApp?

I don't know, it just seems like given the choice between sending money conveniently and sending money inconveniently, they seem to prefer to do so conveniently.

I could be wrong though, maybe WhatsApp flashes subliminal messages directing them to choose WhatsApp to send money.
Yep, and power prices are only set to increase as well - it makes for a great combination with solar.

8.7kWh is not a great amount, but if the price was right it could make a lot of sense. Two of those units ... now I'm interested!

One reason is that overall power consumption needs, timing and priority are going to vary a lot household to household. For one household a power outage might be no problem, for another which depends on life support equipment, a power outage might be life threatening.

If you have centralized batteries, then the decisions about (a) how big they are (b) who they cut off if the battery is running out and (c) how the batteries impact the pricing of power are all made at the community level, which has value as a way to optimize the way an entire community draws from the power grid, but it lacks precision in how it helps individual households.

If you have localized batteries then people can choose (a) if they need batteries at all, (b) how many batteries they need and (c) how they want to use the batteries to offset their grid usage (some people might want to rely on batteries mainly for emergencies, others to aggressively charge and discharge based on different price levels throughout the day). It might be less efficient in aggregate but it is much more accurate in terms of delivering the benefits to the people that need them.

Like the previous housing busts, when prices drop 50%, there is so much general distress that there will be foreclosures everywhere, distressed sales, bankruptcies, and general economic misery. Sitting on a 5% mortgage on an underwater is ok, if you have a job, if you believe the market is coming back, if your neighborhood isn't descending into chaos.
With that attitude, you're going nowhere...

> Having all the golang ecosystem and tooling is a huge advantage as well.

I can see that as currently the umka tooling is pretty lacking.
Well I hope I'm wrong and you're right, because I expect interest rates to keep rising and I could really use a 70% drop in house prices.
I just found a copy of Thinking Forth. The typesetting is excellent. Thanks for the suggestion.
A few jobs back when I was working for a fairly large telecom company there was a similar kind of thing for the software department. I was in hardware but sometimes I would interview software people if they were hired to participate on my project. The software department asked me to rank the interviewee on various categories and give a score. If the total score from all interviewers were larger than some value, they wouldn't hire them because they didn't want them to get bored and leave. Needless to say, this process frustrated many people. It was not consistent across the company though. For the hardware department there was no such system.
I don't know why this "No Bid" claim is getting so much traction. MBB, an ETF containing only MBS, dropped all the way from 98 to 97 on Friday.
The 70s were the worst time to be an investor in terms of real returns. Even worse than the 30s, which saw deflation, so the real return was actually not as bad in comparison.

Also, the market would not react well if the Fed signalled they'd go any higher than 5%.

If I knew 11% was happening, I think I'd liquidate to cash now, then go 60/40 when it happens. (Currently I'm 100% equities.)
You can see F-14 in various states of wing-sweep or decomposition on Google or Bing maps if you look at Iranian airfields. Last time I checked bing has more of them.

I would say that I can’t believe that in 2023 I’m going to have yet another dialog to dismiss by denial on websites on my phone, but I would be lying.
Unfortunately when you’ve been priced out of housing (the pandemic and the recent rise in interest rates priced me out of anything within 2 hours from Silicon Valley), there’s not much you can do other than relocate or find a way to increase income/savings. Housing in Bay Area exurbs like Hollister and Tracy has gone up by over 30% since the pandemic started. I’m currently relying on the latter (I don’t want to move for career and personal reasons), trying to save in the face of high inflation while also trying to level up my career and one day get promotions.
It depends. If you knew that you would certainly need a distributed architecture in the future but you still implemented it as a monorepo, then it's technical debt. Obviously it's not if the requirements have changed.

I purchased it. It was definitely not cheap.
NiMH were incredibly annoying back when I last messed with RC cars, which was when NiMH was the latest and greatest battery chemistry in use there. They rarely delivered in practice what was in writing quite promising capacities, and they were incredibly delicate when it came to heat.

The wikipedia page for NiMH also mentions things like venting hydrogen gas when overcharged...

Looking through the LiFePo4 pages on wikipedia the safety and durability profile seems superior to NiMH, but maybe the LiFePo4 pages there are just fixated on vs. other Li-Ion chemistries.

My impression ATM is if you've got LiFePo4 available it's preferable to NiMH. And my personal experience with a LiFePo4 portable battery booster for jumping cars and emergency charging stuff has been an incredibly positive one. The thing is like a tiny weightless magic box that tolerates incredible abuse without losing any charge even stored for a year in desert temps, and somehow manages to put out enough current to start large-displacement high-compression V8s.
Does it mean Toyota will finally stop saying they rather sell hybrids than electric cars because their battery supply chain is limited?
