> In the former case, the performance really doesn't matter. If you've got a personal blog, does it matter if your update takes 10 seconds or 1 second?

It shouldn't matter, but the fact that you framed the question as 1 second in the fast case shows that this does matter haha. The fast case in this scenario should be under 10ms, and the slow case should be half a second. It shouldn't take anywhere near 1 second to generate a static site!

A modern low end CPU can process upwards of 40GB/s of data. The last time I checked, the entire set of encyclopedia Brittanica is only around 1 GB. I don't know many blogs that approach that much information. At most, a blog probably only has around a few tens of Kilobytes of actual text. It should never take more than a second to process that, but it often takes upwards of 30 seconds to several minutes.

This is what I was trying to emphasize before haha. Even if code isn't in the critical path, there's no reason it should take several seconds to do almost anything, unless it involves communicating over a network. We can stream audio/video data over a network in real time on low end computers through Zoom. That's gotta be processing several MB of information at least every second in real time. If we can do that, surely we should be able to build a static site generator that can generate any blog in under a second, right?
One factor might be the ubiquity of recording devices. It seems reasonable that people behave differently if they think their spontaneity might expose them to liability down the road due to a recording of it.

It is really interesting to see that you specify "enterpreneurs", instead of concerned about losing potential great artists, scientists, philosophers.

I mean, where would we be, if the past Shakespeare, Einstien and Newtons were perpetually distracted and preventing them from making works of art and discoveries we now value most?

> It's worth less today than it was 10 years ago. I know, because I also own some.

You're dating yourself with this comment, you hit a pretty small window around 2012 to manage to lose money. I didn't buy then so I'm doing well. Now, admittedly, the reason the price was high in that window was because a lot of people panicked and wanted to buy in so there are probably an unusual number of stories of people who managed to lose money.

But the rest of the time gold is posting (alleged) real returns. Which is fantastic work for a shiny rock. People call what is happening in bitcoin crazy, but the idea that I'm making a productive contribution to society by owning a rock is bananas. Really it just means that money is losing value faster than the powers that be admit.

> The returns for gold have been absolutely trounced by just about every asset out there.

Well yeah, it sits there and does nothing. The return is not competitive with more productive assets. Still crushing the poor fools who think that they should be using inflation as a reference point to plan/negotiate their finances. Or anyone who thinks they can use wages to get ahead; they're getting washed out by the money hose that has been pointed at assets for the last 15 years.

1) Spurious correlation between Cumulative Debt and currency circulation.

You should pay attention to make the ethernet the preferred interface.

If aggregation of bandwidth over the various underlying media is important for you: depending on the exact mode, aggregation might not work. Even if working, via bonding you might only get aggregation if the traffic goes over multiple TCP channels, while MPTCP also aggregates for a single TCP channel.
He never got fired though?
Why the heck would you ever expect to pay back that debt? The central bank is nothing like an individual where debt is bad. The central banker is more like the bank in monopoly -- the less money there is in the bank, the better off the players are. Money is created through fractional banking, quantitative easing and government spending. Paying back debt destroys money, the money that is used in the economy.

The only reason to pay back debt is to prevent inflation from destroying the money through a different mechanism. But when inflation is under control, which it has been for 39 of the past 40 years, debt should not be paid back.

Expecting to pay off government and central bank debt is like expecting all the money to be returned to the bank by the end of a game of monopoly.

I'm an ophthalmologist. Optometrist are very well educated and very competent. They tend to be better at things optics related like refractions, contact lens fitting, etc. and are perfectly capable of managing bread-and-butter medical ophthalmic issues.

Ophthalmologists tend to be better at complex medical management, especially when there are systemic manifestations and own anything requiring surgical intervention.

Optometrists do a 4-year doctorate. Ophthalmologists do a 4-year MD that includes the full spectrum of medical training (gen surg, ob-gyn, neurology, etc.) and then a 1 + 3 residency that includes 1 year of general medicine or surgery and 3 years of medical and surgical ophthalmology.

There are, of course, optometrists who are very good at medical management and ophthalmologists that are very good at refractive issues (e.g. refractive surgeons). We mostly work cooperatively although things occasionally get spicy. I I enjoy working with and learning from my optometrist colleagues. I go to an optometrist friend when I need a refraction and an ophthalmologist friend for my annual.
That is a consequence of rising interest rates. Folks who refinanced at sub 3% on a 30-year fix can't afford to move and are locked into their home.

You still miss the point. Crypto is money only if it can be used to buy real world goods. If I control the real world then you can have all the crypto you want and still not be able to buy a loaf of bread.

> I actually know the numbers

Actually no. You are comparing apples to oranges. A transaction in a centralized database is always cheaper than in a distributed one. No exceptions.

> Says who?

I do. All your arguments still miss the fundamental issue with the distributed ledger: it's more expensive to operate than a centralized ledger. It's really that simple. 2 > 1. No amount of research and algorithms will change the fact that 2 is greater than 1.

The only reason you would pay more if you cannot get it for less. In case of a distributed ledger you would use it only when the centralized one is not available. The only known case when the centralized is not available is when it's unlawful.

This, and also borrowing risk. It's more likely the a person will not pay the mortgage than a bank. More risk means higher rate to offset for the risk of default. But also, basically the banks can push you around because they have the money. The bank doesn't even have to give you the federal funds rate or the risk-free rate.
When you have a basic API test which makes an HTTP call and validates the response, it is quite simple. We've seen teams get started by just referring to an existing test or example.

One of my startup ideas is to create this "bookcase" for the web. A curated list of really solid "books" and other information sources.

My kids are constantly bringing home all kinds of interesting things from the library, and I remember how much cool stuff there is on the shelves from my youth. That stuff is just missing from the web.

I'm surprised traditional publishers, the folks that actually print books, don't start working back through their catalogs building some kind of online library. I suspect that its because of the way contracts are written that don't leave anybody owning the complete book. I suspect you would have to go back to authors, photographers, and illustrators and renegotiate use of assets again.

My guess, the bottleneck is in the data layer.

Honestly it's unfair to compare a small e-commerce site made with Next to one of the biggest websites on the internet.

If Ebay was made with Next it would probably be much slower. React is the slowest at SSR of the modern frameworks. Amazon considered using it but it was too slow for them so they keep using Java + sprinkled JS.

If one sets-up the devices to that chickens or a burglar activate them, that one still owns the pictures, even though the chickens technically took them.

But yeah, the the chickens or a burglar steals the cameras and activate them by their own programing, overriding whatever setting they had before, the camera owner won't own the copyright on the photos anymore.

In other words, it's not that easy to lose the copyrights. The burglar just activating the motion-trigger isn't enough.

Same talent? Definitively, no. Particular talent? I'm pretty sure there are many Software Developers in India doing $100K+ per year. The problem is taxes and what you get for it. The taxes for the higher bracket in India is 30% and the social security rate sits at a 24%. That's a significant (almost half) part of your salary going to the state.

The problem is, at $50K/year, you are not getting your money's worth. If you were paying this in France, it might acceptable. But in India? You are much better spending these $50k/year in the UAE for private health care, condo and private schools. This should explain the big number of software development shops in the UAE who are employing Indians. The flip doesn't even start at $100k/year; and I suspect, at that amount, the UAE might not be that attractive.

Of course India is losing (both money, and talent) because of this. But not-taxing the "rich" will be an unpopular measure.

You can see for another example, San Fran's 1975 police riots, where the police went on strike, started assaulting both random members of the public as well as anyone from the courts trying to inform them of the court order that they needed to return to work, then left a bomb on the mayor's lawn that had a sign saying "don't threaten us" before it was detonated. All because of a push for integration that meant that a white cop's partner had a chance of being black.
I could send you $10k worth of Monero today. Literally you. I won't but I could. You'd have it by this afternoon. It'd basically be you posting a public key. Safe, secure, we'd still both have plausible deniability that anything had even happened. There'd be a comment on HN, for whatever that was worth in court.

I have a hard time seeing, logistically, how I would get $10k worth of cash to you. I'd need to organise planes, couriers, figure out your address (there'd be a paper trail from that too). Assuming I was willing to cover the transport costs there'd still be quite a lot of risk at the endpoints of someone walking off with the money, and a massive paper trail/fingerprint across a couple of third parties. Probably issues at customs and it'd be a slow process.

Technically you can argue that this is the same thing, but I don't think it is. The practical differences are big.

> I think that may be more a failure of imagination than a likely failure of the regulatory environment.

Maybe. I'm quietly confident. Go in to detail here. Say, hypothetically, I just bought a house from my mate Morris for $350k and you think I also gave him an off the books $100k in Monero to avoid paying taxes. You're the regulator, what happens next? How do you police this? How do the costs of policing this compare to traditional measures?

I wouldn't think that was feasible with cash, it'd be too obvious I was gathering $100k, the risks of something happening to that cash would be too high & there'd be $100k in cash sitting around for police to find in a raid. But good luck proving that I have a secret 2nd crypto wallet. If I do, which I might not.

One: That's really not how monogamy is defined. If you'd like to re-define extremely common terms, it might be a nice idea to lead with that.

Two: You can certainly mutually agree to expectations without being insecure. Hey, lots of couples are monogamous because STDs are a thing, and they FULLY expect their partner to stick to that definition. Not insecurity, collective risk management.

Three: Not forgiving somebody who betrayed your trust isn't jealousy. Wanting to control their behavior in the first place is.

Four: If she wanted to say "jealousy is rooted in insecurity", she could've just said that and saved the world a lot of screen space. It's not about "target", it's about the mindset that somehow poly is magically better. (And boy, there are extremely jealous poly people out there. Wanting to control is a desire that's independent of relationship status)

Totally agree. Incentives would align nicely if they were forced to take their stuff back. Companies would have good reason to design their products in a way that they are easy to recycle. It's hard to understand why this is still not the standard.
An interesting article, but the title is definitely clickbait:

The article is about tsunami like events found in stars and has nothing to do with DNA. Chemical composition is a perfectly suitable way to describe what the probe is studying, and more importantly, an accurate way.

Thank you for rereading and for sharing.

My experience differs. In my experience, multiple marriage and personal counselors have been very clear that there are personal problems and relationship problems. Personal problems can cause relationship problems, and often times a spouse can only lend support as individuals work through their personal problem.

It can be unhealthy and destructive to expect your spouse or relationship to solve a personal problem.

People can have other types of problems besides relationship problems.
My last university is in the throes of getting rid of Greek Life. First it was crackdowns on dangerous hazing behavior, but you know how the slippery slope goes: next was alcohol, then just vague accusations. Meanwhile, there's a strong attempt from the usual suspects to convince students that Greek life is inherently racist. The sororities seem to have bought this concept more than the fraternities and some have closed their own chapters.

Now, I have no love for Greek life but I think it ought to be an option. Some people really benefit from it.
