This actually just came up recently in a conversation I had with a person I would consider an expert, and he said you can't get 3-phase power in residential. I didn't ask him to elaborate, so I'm not sure if he meant "as a matter of policy" or "against code" or some kind of physical limitation.

That said, everyone can get 240 (and almost everyone does, for the washer/dryer), and I'm pretty sure that with 240 and a device (VFD?) anyone can kinda create their own 3-phase on a smaller scale.
Corruption Is Logical
The problem is you have SQLite which works some of the time and Postgres which works all of the time. Postgres is a great option for websites of all sizes. There is vanishingly few reasons to ever pick SQLite for a website. When the only real advantage is not having to run a second process which only really matters for local apps.
Are you sure your tax rate is 55%? You’d have to be earning £500k+ and paying off a Plan 4 student loan for that to be the case.
Simply reading stuff is like passively watching TV/youtube. It evaporates fast. Active learning involves your hands. Two techniques work well for me.

First, I write code to understand the essence of a piece of software (I have written basic TCP/IP/ARP stacks, a Java compiler, a virtual machine, a database, a neural net library etc). It is a joy to write code for an audience of one when you don't have to worry about error handling!

The second is to add an entry to a diary recapping (in your own words)your own understanding of the topic. In my PhD days, I put everything in a single Word doc; I chose Word because I could draw diagrams in it, search with regexes, and the file was available offline. By the end, the file was thousands of pages long. Here's what I had in it.

1. For every paper or blog post I read, I put the paper's name, the URL, author's name (in BibTex form, but that's not germane to your issue). I captured my understanding of the paper (about half a page) and put together a list of questions for which I needed answers. There were some papers that went right above my head, so that entry was all questions. I had back and forward references to other entries in the form of embedded links. This exercise (it turned out) helped me smoke out scenarios that the paper had not mentioned. That becomes the basis for critiquing and comparing.

2. When my understanding of a topic improved, I would go back and fix some of the outstanding questions, along with a meta comment about what it was about my previous understanding that I couldn't answer the question in the first place.

3. I had design ideas, little bits of code, benchmark results etc all in a single linear order. When my advisor asked what I was up to, I could quickly look up the log of entries.

It is ok to forget; no one can remember it all. Just capturing the essentials and being willing to work from first principles is good enough for most interviewers.
Probably just a muscle spasm. This has happened to me a lot when I start a new exercise or restart an exercise after a long layoff, particularly handstand push-ups and to a lesser extent other exercises targeting the neck or upper back. It’s actually interesting you had the same experience, it’s not it’s me.
$1 in 1981 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $3.22 today: https://www.in2013dollars.com/us/inflation/1981?amount=1

2 incomes * 6 dollars/hr * 3.22 = 38.64 dollars/hr household

65,000 * 3.22 = 209,300
The rate of price increase will slow, but I doubt we'll see them fall. 2008 was the only time that has ever happened.
I have no real issue with a system that has no memory or logging of events and only exists to help me, not to cause liability to fall on me because the system, possibly erroneously, logged I took my eyes off the road for a split second 30 seconds before an incident. Or insurers using false positives as a reason to raise rates. And saving the video is right out.

But there's no such system, nor is there any trivial way of demonstrating that such a system works that way. Because all car companies and insurance companies want data.
I think it'll get better to buy as some of the manic, easy-money business decision stuff recedes. Granted, the traders use the metric of comparing volume to historical norms as insight into whether current prices are more momentary or long term. i.e. Increased trading volume suggests valuations actually are adjusting to the new level. But that's for stocks and much more liquid assets than real estate.

Another odd-ball thing nagging at me is just population age characteristics, but this is truly long term. The boomer generation really was larger than all of its following generations by large measure. I wonder whether this could make longer term US characteristics look like Japan the last several decades for this reason.
Settle for making 6 figures in a nice apartment in a nice part of town with plenty of extra spending money? Woe is me.
In this situation, interest rates will be higher so you wouldn’t want to refinance. You also will have negative equity in the home, due to values falling, so may have trouble writing the loan.
It's a very appropriate name for people who understand aviation, but I've heard A LOT of people over the years say stuff to the effect of "the planes these days can fly themselves, they don't actually need pilots they're just in there due to the unions"

I just bought a house! Like, literally yesterday. And I was recently quoted in the Wall Street Journal regarding my home buying process: https://www.wsj.com/articles/home-buyers-are-finding-creativ...

Someone in the comments there made a metaphor about "catching a falling knife." I respect this skepticism, and suspect I may have safely caught such a knife. More thoughts:

- If interest rates rise, the asset price bubble may deflate. This suggests the house's value on paper will fall — but unless the economy collapses, overall rents ought to be stable, and the cost of living on a typical property ought remain broadly similar. In the meantime, prices are still rising substantially in the area where I bought the house, notwithstanding recent headwinds in the mortgage market.

- I expect real rents to rise over the next few years, due to general supply-and-demand issues and the dearth of new construction. I expect this nationwide; I further expect them to rise in the city where I bought. This should mitigate the pressure on the value of my asset.

- I locked in a 4% interest rate. With a conforming loan of $647,200 that's something like $2200/mo in debt that's evaporating due to inflation. This is a substantial portion of the monthly payment. You will not get this good a deal, because rates are already going up. However, at current rates, you will still get free-money financing -- just not as much or for as long.

- I sold stocks to pay for my down payment. The stock market fell a good little bit since I sold. If your equity is still in equities you have already taken a hit that I avoided. (I got lucky, I guess; I also sold company stock at a very attractive price.) And note that even though stocks have fallen, they are by many measures still somewhat overpriced by historical standards, particularly if rising rates brings about a recession, which it might. If my real estate is at risk from rising rates and falling asset prices, it has lots of company. (Even a nice safe bank account is losing value daily.)

In conclusion, a lot depends on the specifics of where you're buying, how you're paying for it, and what you would do with the money instead. If you've got a wad of cash and wanted to make an all-cash offer, I'd preserve as much as you can against inflation, and save it for the recession in a year or two; you'll probably come out ahead.
Wouldn't inflation keep the prices high?
This is really cool. It's a text-to-speech and the gist seems to be that they synthesize it from only a little audio.

The results are clearly synthetic and need work. However what's cool is that there are a ton of characters (from popular shows and video games) and there are useful statistics like inferred emotion (which is also in the output).

Honestly it's a big problem how a lot of AIs are like "black boxes" where you really can't customize or see anything. Yeah we have DALL-E and GPT which can generate text images but the lack of customization or fine-tuning the image afterwards severely hinders what's possible with them. Ultimately what you want is something interactive, where you can control how much or little the AI generates, and give it really specific criterion.

But seriously: how did you get the domain `15.ai`?
> Where?

There's this thing, you may have heard of it, it indexes the World Wide Web and allows you to search that index free of charge. They call them search engines, a popular one is Google at https://google.com, but I presently prefer https://duckduckgo.com.

A cursory search using obvious keywords reveals that Cambodia is one such place, where one can apparently live in downtown Phnom Penh for less than $500/mo.

flashcards works for me..there will be certain technical material that i need to know but not regularly use. i review it once every 1-2 months and i can recall about 80% of the material. the big break through for me was using blank poker cards to make the flashcards. 3-5 card sets can usually cover a books worth of material.

in the past i've tried digital apps like anki and quizlet but i'd inevitably get distracted. the point is to come up with a system of review that matches your personality. if you want to remember stuff long term the big supported by science is spaced repetition.

the other system that works but is much harder is to teach someone. pretending to teach a class also seems to work...point is to explain it at level that a new person would understand forces your mind to really delve into the topic.
Those are such great looking cases.

I have a Samsung TV with “smart” features but only connect it to the Internet when using a streaming app. I still use cable for TV so I don’t use builtin apps often.

Most of the time the TV is set to unconfigured WiFi so it can’t reach the Internet. I temporarily switch it to Ethernet when I need Internet connectivity.

Paper and Plotter: A 3D Surface
It’s really not that deep. The acronym is just a tongue in cheek silly nothing. Being the CEO (or any kind of founder role) of an early stage can be a lot of effort and sacrifice without the “privileges” of power, influence, etc

Sure, if Zuckerberg jokingly called himself “chief enslaved officer” that’d be a little tone deaf given his power and privilege, but the founder of some pre-pmf startup working 10hr days 7 days a week jokingly commenting that is just a small way to soothe the pain. Obviously they aren’t a slave in any real sense (no one in America currently is), it’s a comment on the real sacrifices and effort and stress of the job.
> and largely populated by Americans

that's an assumption. There's likely no stats on it, but I wouldn't be suprised if there's a large userbase outside the US (I'm not there, I know lots of users also not being in the US).

> If you run a site in India for Indians, for example, would you find it odd if users assumed everyone lived in India unless otherwise stated?

That's not really comparable. We are talking about one of the most well-known tech exchanges worldwide - so it is also of interest to many people outside the US. If silicon valley would be in India it wouldn't be odd if the site would be hosted there, and if international users would visit it.
I don’t think it’s anything new, it’s just that his negligence is finally catching up to him. There have been serious issues that folks in side and outside of the government have been concerned about for a while.

I think the bigger issue is people only being able to see things in black and white. For instance, either Tesla is awesome because of what they have done to push forward electric vehicles, or they have problems they need to be held accountable for. Why not both?
Blow's talk does raise a few valid questions but is so full of factually incorrect statements, cherry picking and contradictions[0] I'm surprised anyone can take it seriously.

It's also very hard, for me at least, to interpret the sum of his arguments in the talk as anything except "If you're not managing memory, you're not a real programmer."

In my case, even with a couple of the 'smarter' (heh) TVs I have, I use HDHomeRun, which lets me pipe antenna TV through to all my devices and TVs pretty easy (and set up a central DVR if I need to).
Jurat.io is a startup that has solved the transaction irreversibility problem without introducing trusted intermediaries. Instead their process follows court rulings about digital assets in particular blockchain accounts.

In a sense the courts are occupying a position of authority but it’s the same authority that courts have over all property, digital and traditional.
That was his explanation.

The total amount of loan will differ though. Why pay 1mil when you could pay 900k instead in 6 months?
Money can only be so cheap for so long, before the house of cards collapses. That's a bad middle to long-term strategy.

If in could live anywhere in Texas it would be Alpine. I was married in Marathon and I’ve always been drawn to that part of the state. I have roots and work in Dallas though so that’s where I am… for now.
I'm not suggesting we can do this today (no universal theory), and I'm not suggesting it is practical in the sense that we can simulate that much amount of matter in a certain amount of time. But I think it's theoretically possible.

There is also the question about how much simulation would be necessary to get approximately real life results that includes consciousness -There was a very detailed simulation of a cell[1], I think that used a library of known chemical interactions. This is not the way the universe works, but such an approach might still simulate life, including people, with enough running time.

That's what we effectively sometimes. We were asked by a company to work on their codebase, add some additional features. In order to give a good effort estimation, we asked to looked at this Qt C++ codebase. I went to their office and look through carefully. The code was good and we could make a good offer.

In other cases we saw bad codebases, and asked for 10x more. Which they paid. And it really was 10x more the effort, as it turned out.

"We" is not a single employee, but a contracting company. So our leverage is better, compared to a lone wolf.
I just reviewed a newer model (MA551-MPi4E) with the CM4, and it is a breath of fresh air after a couple app-ridden ones I've used in the past 5 years.

My review is on my website (link in profile), or on my YouTube channel.
Requires you pay for their patreon to view the inputs.
I don't think that's true at all. Do you have data to support it? Everything I've seen indicates that most large cities do have a significant percentage of vacant land ( https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13574809.2016.11... ) and that cities like Seattle, SF, NYC, etc are indeed unique in their geographic constraints and total land utilization.

What I'm really talking about what I say "geographically constrained" is the elasticity of housing supply. Cities like Seattle, SF and NYC have less elastic housing supply in part because of their current land utilization and geographic constraints hemming in new development. That's a pretty well understood phenomenon.
They used Dall-e2 but you have to pay for their patreon to see the inputs.
I couldn't get used to it at all. Every few minutes I kept increasing the volume or decreasing the screen brightness, and at first I never realised why until I looked at how I rested my hands on the keyboard. A few days after I got the laptop I just got rid of it by taking out all of the touchbar buttons in the system preferences. I would have prefered the function keys a lot more.
California has a statewide mandate to reduce commuter miles driven over the coming decades (it's an already outdated CO2 measure).

They've been at it for a while now, and the main result has been intentionally crippling the road system at great expense (without fixing public transit). So, I'm not convinced allowing a regional authority more power to sabotage transportation networks is a good idea.

There are also mandates to add affordable housing, but those are either ignored or lead to boondoggles. (Construction is ridiculously overpriced in California. They may as well be mandating affordable dollar bills.)

One way to fix it would be to streamline permitting, etc for new housing (they did this for ADUs, but that's explicitly limited to housing that's inappropriate for families).

Typical permitting delays in south bay are something like 3 years for new construction (enjoy those double mortgage payments!), and nonsensical requirements add at least 50% to construction costs on top of that.

This could be solved in a few months by Sacramento outlawing such practices, then closing and replacing any non-compliant planning departments.
> No one knows. The fed could give up trying to contain inflation

One thing that we know absolutely will not happen is that the Fed will give up trying to fight inflation.

The Fed has a duel mandate to stabilize prices and keep unemployment low, but really more important than either of those is that it’s predictable and does what it says it will do. Expectations play a really large role in monetary policy. Pretty much the whole reason they waited so long to start raising rates was because they said they weren’t going to raise rates for a long time.

The elderly demographic is large and they all vote.
The answer is: you don't have to remember it because tech changes too fast.

For example, knowing how to configure your network is useless if you only need to do it once every five years because (sadly) the UI will have changed anyway.

Technically, they didn't pay... but they did send the display, speakers, stand, and Pi kit for review (I'm going to be integrating it into a new studio build—if I can get that to happen!).

I don’t think where a site is hosted gives any weight to its audience these days. That said, can you share where you got “largely populated by Americans” from? I can’t find any stats, or is it just anecdotal? With threads like these I assume the same too, but it might just be the loudest voices.
A new exhibit focuses on the Egyptian team who worked on finding King Tut’s tomb
I don’t really follow the news, so apologies if I’m missing some connotation, but to me, “living in fear” refers to the people who will miss things they shouldn’t have to miss, not the people who will try to do everything they should and test to do it with a clear conscience.

For example, a local singing event was held last month, a dearly treasured annual event. They took precautions as if it were summer 2020, doing as much as possible outdoors, masking indoors, not letting people get food together, requiring vaccinations, and so on. As the event drew near, though, the people asking for those things largely backed out anyway, citing concern about COVID. I found it terribly sad that they couldn’t bring themselves to do this favorite activity despite receiving so many accommodations. I see that sort of behavior as succumbing to fear in a way that doesn’t benefit them.
That argument makes no sense. Generally speaking, tools are named based on the capability of the tool. We don't make a rule of changing the names of tools based on the predicted skill of the operator.
Or you could miss that window. If you barely qualify now why risk it over 10% which will mean nothing when you own the home.

Even in "regular" retail stores. I have successfully bargained in big box stores, it doesn't always work of course, but even these stores are usually managed by humans and salesmen, especially those with experience are often allowed some margin.
Agreed which is why I love Artin’s Algebra. It introduces the matrix determinant early and uses it as the prototypical example of a group homomorphism and the book uses matrix groups liberally.

Obviously not a beginner friendly book if you just want to understand matrix equations s. But I found the pedagogical approach great and there are some real gems in the exercises.

I found it a better for learning versus the standard recommendations of Axler/Lang/Halmos for LA. (Lang’s exposition is kinda weird and Halmos’s choice of exercises isn’t my favorite).
It is almost certain that pi does contain sequences of zeroes of arbitrary length, but that following those zeroes are other numbers.
But more weirdly, it's possible to find any string of digits within the digits of pi. So there are going to be quite a few zeros in there, followed by ever more non-zeros.

Transcendental numbers are truly awesome.
This is sounds pretty great. Is there though that much of a dev ramp up increase from using SQLite over MySQL/PGSQL though?
Something you may know, but I didn't before going through the home buying process: waiving inspection doesn't mean you can't get an inspection it means you don't get to do an inspection after making your offer and then use it to negotiate. It generally isn't a problem to get an inspection before making your offer and using that to inform whether you want to make an offer.
I keep seeing people make the assumption that the inflation that the world is currently experiencing is something that supply side monetary policy can stop.

I'm skeptical of that assumption.
