I don't think the stimulus being one of the drivers of inflation is an 'extremist fringe theory' at all. I thought the consensus was it was one of many factors, and the exact contribution of the different factors (stimulus, supply issues, etc) was up for debate.

US inflation is higher than other wealthy nations and the US also did a larger stimulus. So there is evidence that the additional stimulus may have created greater inflation in the US. Scope this paper here: [0]

As far as the consensus for the cause of inflation being unclear among experts, scope this article in left leaning VOX: [1].

> (Technically I guess you could do without NAT if you gave every host on your LAN two addresses: a private address and a publicly-routable one. But that might be more cumbersome.)

Except that the IPv6 standard explicitly allows for two on-link prefixes for SLAAC. So in my home I have a ULA address range that is static, and all my devices get a SLAAC random IP from my ISP.

If my prefix changes, that doesn't change my ULA prefix and all DNS records will continue to function. My ULA is also advertised over BGP using Wireguard, so its automatically routable from VPN when I am on the road but I still want to reach internal resources.
> “We have this ideological purity test,” Mr. Powell said about the company’s hiring process on a 2018 crypto podcast. “A test of whether you’re kind of aligned with the vision of Bitcoin and crypto.”

He clarified later: https://twitter.com/typesfast/status/1537151707141918720

My point was not that engineers are overpaid. That's not for me to judge. Only that many business models won't support those rates. That's the CEO's fault not the engineers. See for example: https://twitter.com/typesfast/status/1537151707141918720/photo/1

His original statement ("It might be that many software business models don't work when engineers cost $400k/year.") is pretty obvious.

Suppose you have a website that caters to competitive Mahjong players, and earn revenue based on a combination of pro subscriptions, micropayments, adverts, and sponsorships. If your Trailing Twelve Month revenue is $120K, you couldn't afford an engineer who costs $100k/yr, much less $400k.

Everywhere I look I see the unexamined assumption that inflation is necessarily bad for everyone. I haven't be enable to find a straight answer on who it actually benefits and who it hurts in the long run. I've found economics studies arguing contradictory conclusions. Wages, costs, debt, cash, stocks, and rent all react differently, and your experience of inflation depends hugely on what balance of these things you have.

Inflation and responses to it affect the distribution of wealth. When I hear an automatic response from "responsible" policymakers explain that some sacrifices will be needed to tame it (mostly not by them, of course), then I strongly suspect that we're headed for yet more accumulation of wealth at the top.

This is a great approach and I don't want to discourage it, but there's a spectrum of cystic acne. Honestly, I'm basing my comments more off personal experience (different people close to me have used Accutane), but I'm not sure how often diet is the cause of (non-simple) cystic acne, although, granted, I'm by default thinking of the more extreme cases. I had a single cyst under my cheek for a semester that dissolved on it's own - never considered Accutane for such a mild cyst. On the other hand, a close associate of mine developed severe cystic acne after being prescribed and using different birth control medicines. The symptoms not only continued, but got worse, well after ceasing these medications. No diet change was going to fix this - Accutane changed this persons life. After going to a few doctors seeking treatment, they were hesitant to prescribe Accutane to this person unless there were no other options. From what I've read online and stories I've heard from this person, this seems to be the norm - if you get prescribed Accutane (withholding doctors who jump straight to medication), you likely have a non-trivial case of acne that won't be reduced by say eating less chocolate. It's like treating depression - some people are able to solve other issues in their life that improve the depression tremendously, and other people have certain brain chemistry imbalances that make this process impossible _until_ they're treated with anti-depressants.
You can look at “QFT in a nutshell” by Zee, a highly recommended and pretty accessible book (to the degree a book on QFT can be accessible), for the computation of g for the electron to one loop order. That calculation can also be found in “Quantum field theory and the Standard Model” by Schwartz in Chapter 17 (p. 321). I’m not aware of a textbook exposition of the calculations relevant for the muon g.

It's not that we don't have nuclear power plants, nuclear fuel, and nuclear technology.

One problem is that France's nuclear industry has committments to use something like 2/3rds of the world's reserves of Uranium Ore.

Another problem is, we've had 3 once-in-1000 years accidents in 40 years. By my calculations, the entire world will be a radioactive waste dump in 250,000 years, given the rate of land contamination by nuclear accidents.

Why do nuclear cheerleaders ignore this fact? They must.

> PV throwing off excess during peak is fine

PV throwing off excess during peak is fine even if we don't have storage, because it means PV is adequate for a bigger fraction of the morning and evening (and in turn, the needs for storage become a little less because of the over-provisioning of production).
CloudFlare actually makes the case for running in dedicated processes on their own blog: https://blog.cloudflare.com/mitigating-spectre-and-other-sec...

Running untrusted code in the same process gives that code a tremendous blast radius if they exploit a vulnerability in, say, a fetch implementation. I do not understand why they would do this.

Isolating processes adds a layer of protection. People who exploit your implementation have limited access to the system (they can't read another user's memory, for example, which often contains sensitive info – like private keys).

KVM adds _another_ layer.

If you have a process running in a namespace within a KVM, someone would need to exploit the process, the Linux Kernel, and the underlying virtualization extensions to do serious damage.
> Am I offbase in assuming you dont have kids?

Yes. I do have children and in hindsight there would have been a lot of benefits having them much earlier in life.

> Not only are you losing out on so much as a parent

I lose out on so much now as a parent because I have adulting to do. When I was in high school what did I have to do with my time? Not much. Time that could have been put into the child. I also had way more energy to keep up with children, something that is much harder now that I'm older.

> Its absolutely not a great idea to have children in high school.

Yes, we firmly established in the environment where society demonizes having children, going against the grain will not lead to desirable outcomes. Going against society never ends well, no matter the topic. While your concerns are valid, they are the product of the very society that does not welcome children and ostracizes those who have them.

Again, people avoid having children young because it is socially unacceptable to do so. It is entirely logical to want to avoid fighting that given the importance of society to an individual. But, as said before, aside from those factors high school would be a great time to have children for a number of reasons. Indeed, there is never a perfect time to have children.

They also had quite solid experimental anomalies they were trying to explain.

Particle physics isn't done, but colliders probably are. Terrestrial particle physics is effectively rudderless since there are no anomalies left for them to probe.

> 'm suggesting that we consider not everything that seems obvious is in fact obvious.

Sure, but if you make extraordinary claims, then you have to provide extraordinary evidence. A claim of "amputation is no severe than drawing blood" is an excessively extraordinary claim, and you have yet to provide any evidence.

> I think we agree. As I said, it should be easy to talk about and yet there are multiple factors one must weigh. This makes it compicated, but I'm happy we're talking about it.

What factors? There's only one I am aware of - superstition.

> So I would be fascinated to understand the opposite position, which you put forth, that circumcised men get less joy from sex.

This isn't actually under contention, unless you contend that less feeling during sex is better.

Besides, for at least 3 decades there's been a ton of papers correlating ED with circumcision.

The only people "just asking the question" are those who are not happy with the answers we already have. We already have the answers, we already have the research, it's a very widely researched thing due to the large number of amputations performed.

You may not like the answers, but they're out there, and they've been validated.

Now ...

You are proposing it as a fairly harmless procedure, you should be providing evidence that there is no harm. It is both unscientific and primitive to make claims and ask others to disprove them.

The fact that you are ignoring much of the evidence that is already well-known and then you go on to compare lifelong mutilation for a superstitious belief to a temporary pain with no negative permanent effect makes it seem that you are willfully deluding yourself.

Circumcised men get less joy from sex. The only credible reports we have from consenting adults are those who get circumcised as adults, and the large majority did indeed get less joy from sex. A significant minority suffer from ED. A small minority never have sex again.
> Ehh... we should expect this, but supply may meet demand, instead of the other way around. We could see an unprecedented ramp down in the already unprecedentedly low inventory.

Great, I am trying to do the same thing because the rhythm of Change is unsustainable in every possible way (ecologically, but also, I want to master my skills on the instruments I use everyday and this is not possible when something change every year).
I kind of feel like that era is also over. Tech, start ups, and the ruby community used to be really fun. People were genuinely excited to do the meetups. And I'm sure some people still find it to be, but it feels to me like most of that energy is gone, even before the market crash. And I certainly don't see it getting more energized from here any time soon.

Who knows, maybe I changed more than the communities.

Thank you for the perspective. It helps to know more about the successes and failings of institutions before I go about suggesting their use. :)
I worked at Intel, and with process/fab people for a number of years.

Everything you're seeing in the comments is true.

Compensation is not that bad. Clearly, it'll not pay SW salaries - no engineering does. But if you're a fab person, you'll work long hours, be on call often (and you will get woken up often), and eventually will own a tool that you'll be responsible for, even when not on call.

Lots of abusive and pathological behavior, as well. And they often block internal transfers so you're basically trapped.

People with other skills (e.g. SW) get out. The rest are stuck, because they have, for example, a chemistry PhD and no other company will pay more.

I've posted on this before but I make twice as much, more, as an industry pro than in my work as a non-tenured academic. I've been offered tenure and turned it down, because if I took it, my family would starve. It needs to change.

But imagine the displacement of those ivory-tower academic greybeards who will suddenly have to compete with actual professionals? They're still teaching HTML/CSS in my university, for example; cloud is largely pooh-poohed; AI and ML are barely on the curriculum, and sub-par at that; more interesting subjects, like e.g. computational neuroscience, or any software engineering that isn't Python, simply doesn't feature. They'll be out on their ear.

That 2 seconds is the projectile. Unless you're already aimed directly at the AT firing point it's going to take more than 2 seconds for the tank to acquire a target lock and swing the turret into place.

Assume the turret is 90 degrees off target and it will take 2 seconds just to swing the turret around. Assuming it takes 2 seconds to notice the AT round fired, 2 seconds to target lock, that's still 8 seconds total for the tank shell to hit.

That's not great for the AT team, but it is a survivable amount of time for shoot-and-scoot tactics, enough that it's going to be a hellish war of attrition between armor & AT teams, not a completely one-sided battle. Which seems to be roughly what we're seeing in eastern Ukraine, unfortunately. A truly shitty and hellish situation all around.

For any IPv6 setup, you already have multiple addresses per host.

I don't see how adding a third address, particularly a static one, would be cumbersome.

You don't have labor and supply-side shortages during a recession. We're pretty far from a recession.

The fed may overly cool things off and cause a recession, but it's not a double-negative situation of recession PLUS raising rates.
Yes. It would certainly cause a wage-inflation spiral.

Even so, such a spiral could be straightforwardly prevented if the policy intended to bring high wages was coupled with a policy requiring forced savings.

There is no fundamental reason why high dividends does not cause CPI inflation. However, because of concentration in company ownership a larger fraction of dividends are reinvested than the fraction of wages that are invested-- i.e. those with large holdings have a lower propensity to spend. However, we can reduce the propensity to spend of those who work with laws.

Such a policy would also permit reducing the extreme taxes on wages in some countries-- without a policy like this if we set taxes on income from wages equal to income from dividends, investment will drop and we will get CPI inflation-- a very undesirable situation. With this kind of policy, one wouldn't.
