I'll try to find some, but I've never seen that brand around here (France).

I usually tend to buy protein bars from a sporting goods store, which have the benefit of making me feel full after one or two, and make me eat noticeably less at the following meal. But said store is quite out of my way, so I don't always have those on hand, and they do have a bit too much sugar for my taste.
Seeing a timeline animation of browser share made me both nostalgic about the browser wars days and how IE took over after (and for a time was the best), and also sad about what happened to Firefox, which was so exciting in those early days becoming very much a standard but falling to the wayside as Chrome snuck up. It's just sad where it ended up today as an also ran for some/holdout for others (I still insist my parents use it etc) with difficult marketing and who knows what level of development behind the scenes. Sigh.
This kind of argument has been used to deny people their rights forever.

In the 90s and 00s one of the arguments was that if you legalized same-sex marriage then bestiality would be next. These arguments are just a new flavor of that so that people can still be jerks to transgender people.
Hmm, I guess this is merely semantics and some would disagree with me, but I suppose I wouldn't consider that "employment". I don't say this as a value judgement, merely as a legal status. The same way someone would be "single" if they're not married (even though they live with a partner), if they work for an organization that do not report to respective country's sovereign authorities, that doesn't sound like an "employment".
plus the fun contrast between complaining that an employee violated an NDA to share some information with a journalist, and saying "don't believe the news."

if the information they're sharing isn't true, how does it violate an NDA?
Positive affect changes are a noted possible side effect. The mechanism is unknown. Some scientists believe it's the direct action of the drug on the brain, but others believe it has something to do with altering the natural intestinal flora and a vague "gut-brain connection". It's an area of research waiting to be tackled.

I wasn't going to complain about feeling better than normal, only a little disappointed after the scrip ran out.
Those choices are bad: watercolor supplies need to have be of high quality to not frustrate the painter. Otherwise you'll have bad result (destroyed paper for example, oversaturated or muddy color) and will have to fight every bit.
When I was studying illustration, our teacher would advise us to avoid those kind of kit and paper.
I've tried the one from children: that's not a pleasant experience.

Last thing: watercolor is one of the hardest technique you can try. You need to be able to work fast, be precise and not overwork it.
Former US Army 19k here. Tanks are expensive to build, expensive to maintain, expensive to operate, hard to transport and require certain levels of infrastructure to operate in theater (bridges to support their weight). With current threats they are bound to become even heavier (and require more fuel).

While I am all for seeing the rise of Bolo's, and I love shock effect as much as the next enthusiast, the ability of a $500 drone with the equivalent of a RKG-3 grenade to take one out is really the only relevant part of the question. Tanks are dead.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RKG-3_anti-tank_grenade

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolo_universe

Edit to add; "expensive to operate" was a bit of an understatement, the logistical support required for a tank company is tremendous, totally preposperous; 1000s of gallons of fuel a day, 3 types of ammo, support equipment and personnel.

On the Advance of Making Language Models Better Reasoners
Inflation affects the poor more than the wealthy.

Food, energy, shelter all become less attainable for the poor. They will always be attainable for the rich.

In absolute terms the rich will "lose" more money, or not gain as much, but this isn't the concern.

The concern is the inevitable increase of absolute poverty that will happen, and that is because the poor will be worse affected.

Rich people aren't going to struggle to pay their gas bill, or struggle to buy food.
Small correction: you mention the Apple documentation specialist Jef Raskin, but you spelled his name with two “f”s; his name only had one.
Reduces preexisting debt
I think that's a slightly skewed way of looking at it. While there's some nuggets of truth there, the better way to look at a tank is that it provides highly mobile firepower, combined with enough protection to get in there and do it's job. And that job is to support the infantry by, as you stated so well, "blow holes in things" (Quickly, might add!)

But it never was meant to operate on it's own. And when it did, it was either lost in large numbers (Russian tank charges in WWII) or was in all actuality a fluke (Your Blitzkrieg example. See The Chieftan's video on the Battle of France in WWII on why this was such a reckless thing to do, followed by reading on the Battle of The Bulge on why it didn't work a second time.)

Tanks unsupported by infantry are a liability. However, infantry, unsupported by tanks, can be a liability as well when attacking an opponent who's well fortified and/or has heavy weapons. When tanks, infantry, and artillery work together (combined arms theory), then the danger posed by ATGMs and the like is greatly reduced. Armies have been reminded of this numerous times last century, and each time a renewed emphasis on combined arms fixes the balance.

Lastly, and I feel this point is missing in a lot of arguments: ATGMs like Javelin, mines, guided mortars, etc and all but the heaviest drones are defensive and supporting weapons. For ATGMs and RPGs, these weapons exist to prevent infantry from being overrun. (And as the Russians are being reminded, they can be quite good at this.) They are not offensive weapons. That is the reason the tank remains. It's offensive.
I assume theyll continue to source power from the wind and the sun.
Sonos glitch accidentally sent this guy $15,000 worth of speakers
Speaking of lower middle class and poor people. Powell recently stated that workers had too much power and were able to demand too much higher wages. He intended to create policy to tip the balance of power away from workers to resolve this. I don't believe the well-being of lower middle class and poor people are a concern of his.

The upper/middle classes hold more debt overall, but it's debt that's much easier to shed - mortgages. You can just walk away from that mortgage at any time. The lower classes are saddled with medical debt, credit card debt, and student loans which aren't dischargeable in bankruptcy.
6.25% was the rate I got in early 2007 a bit before the recession hit. For a few years before that they had been in the 5-6% range. Before that, from around 2002 back to the mid '70s they had always been above 6%. Averaged a little over 7.5% in the '90s, 10% in the second half of the '80s, from 10% to 18.5% in the first half of the '80s.

I thought the worst time to get hit by a depression was right before you enter the job market for the first time and/or as you attempt to buy your first house. I guess every stage of life has unique challenges that come along with a depression.
I've flown more than I care to even think about, the carbon footprint of my life is about as ugly as it gets. That said, I do have a bit of experience to draw on and my current favorite is a narrowbody:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airbus_A220

Originally designed by Bombardier, every flight with it that I've made so far (~10) has been an extremely nice experience, especially when compared to other planes on the same routes. The only plane that I would prefer is the 747 but that's pretty much gone on passenger routes now and those two planes would not be found on the same routes anyway. So a long flight in a narrow body is definitely not something that I would run away from.
In most cases, ketogenic diets don’t result in actually reaching and sustaining kerosine. It would be best to measure levels, though even that isn’t extremely precise.

Diets in general also tend toward caloric deficit, resulting in weight loss.

Ketogenic diets are used to treat epileptic seizures but haven’t otherwise been studied in large enough populations to understand the ramifications of long-term glucose deficits in the human body. YMMV just be safe.
There will be plenty of tropical suppliers of synthetic anhydrous ammonia competing, if transmission capacity or availability falls short.

No. If someone has publicly said that they think queer people should be killed, or if they tell their coworkers that they believe that, most would consider that reasonable grounds for termination, and also likely against the law (depending on phrasing and jurisdiction.)

However, I'm curious about this: "my co-workers are not of a political, religious, or cultural persuasion that implies I should be killed". If someone is a Muslim from Iran, is that sufficient evidence that they think queer people should be killed? If someone donated to a senator who is against immigration, is it sufficient evidence that they hate immigrants?

The interesting and unstated part of the question is, how do we know what a person believes? What's the threshold of evidence needed to condemn someone as a bigot? And who should be making this call?

I agree and own Google stock, but I would be a little cautious:

"After the collapse of the stock market during the recession of 2008, ad spending saw a reduction of over 27% across all channels." [1]

Now that is across all channels so firms might prioritize Web over TV/Print, and that is from 2008 when much more spend was focused on TV, but food for thought.

And the price the current water holders want is apparently infinite because they claim the right to all the water that falls in perpetuity. We have removed rights to certain classes of objects before when managing other resources. If I recall correctly land deeds used to assume rights from heaven to hell but then air and mineral rights were carved off for the sake of commerce. We can do so again
No, because they did basically the same thing ~15 years ago without increasing inflation.

Year over year inflation is higher than it’s been in 40 years, and they weren’t printing money then either.
They DID raise rates 6 years ago: from 0% in 2015 to 2.45% in 2019. It should have been done much earlier. And there was no need to push equity markets 50% up from pre-pandemic levels. That was the time for a soft-landing.
Wow, amazing response. This was exactly what I was looking for. It's odd I have to get someone from HN to help me understand instead of, say, Intel/AMD. Their recommendations didn't seem to mention any of these important details. Maybe I missed something. Thank you!
>You need to have a final boss who will go to bat for you, unfortunately the Nobel laureate was 84 and more into playing slots at the Indian casino/fucking around in the lab than he was in advocating for my career.

This is one of the things I like about industry jobs. Your career at a company might grow or be derailed by one person, but it's just that particular company. If it's a big company, it's just that particular org. In academia a single person can derail your entire career. As you've pointed out, sometimes it's not even malice. They just aren't interested in doing what they need to support you.

At one point my skip-level was a VP at a software company who loved to push people into doing things by saying "Think about your career. If you do things right you will be set for life." Outside of his tiny universe at that company, nobody even knew he existed. I burned some bridges with that person and some of his sycophants, but I just moved on to a different company with zero ramifications.

It's liberating to be able to just say F-it and move on.
> oil companies are "dragging their feet".

That is what you requested and that is what I provided. There are other articles if you would like to research them yourself.

The full quote is "“Whether it’s $150 oil, $200 oil, or $100 oil, we’re not going to change our growth plans,’’ Pioneer Chief Executive Officer Scott Sheffield said during a Bloomberg Television interview. “If the president wants us to grow, I just don’t think the industry can grow anyway.’’"

>Now that I've addressed your article, would you like to address the above administration policy decision I linked?

"Federal land accounts for about 24 percent of oil and gas production in the United States, mainly in the offshore Gulf of Mexico. But since companies with existing leases will not be affected, the near-term impact on exploration and production as well as royalties to states will be limited. With more than 26 million onshore acres and 12 million offshore acres already under lease, there is a deep inventory of exploration opportunities. "
Prediction higher interest rates will reverse the following trends:

* Private car leases at near zero interest rate will stop. At one point it was sometime cheaper to lease than to buy a car for cash

* Housing bubble. Near zero central bank/bank interest rates has inflated a housing bubble. Higher interest rates will decrease housing prices since fewer buyers will be able to afford higher interest mortages.

* Tech bubble. Cheap interest has also funded some startups with non viable long term business ideas

* Electric scooter rental companies. There will be fewer electric scooters since the interest rate to lease them will be higher. Electric scooter rental companies will afford fewer scooters.

* Less investment companies buying up farmland. It will be more expensive to finance these deals

* High leverage tech stocks over schiller p/e 15 rate will deflate.

* There was no exponential startups growing forever. There was however debt growing an exponential rate. The world is still linear.
Linear power production.

* Graphic cards for gaming will be more available for gamers again. Reason crypto currency mining will decrease deflate by higher interest rate not flowing as much into crypto.

* Tech bubble less tech startups will effect cloud vendor footprint. Fewer tech startups less need to rent cloud services.

What are books or memoirs from great people that can help future great people?
There is Meditations by Aurelius, yes. But it is more generic and often related to administration.

What are some books, letters, autobiographies, or memoirs of great people, polymaths of the past that future, aspiring polymaths can learn from?

It will be better if the book focuses more on the becoming, growth part rather than polished words of a made, established person.
I'm not looking for money per se. I see it as something that could help me get, for example, a house in a more civilized and less corrupt country where I'll be able to start building a life. Sometimes I get this crazy idea that it'd be possible to do that here, but the reality of living here (soaring crime rate, double-digit inflation, corrupt system, etc.) quickly confutes me. Regarding universities, I'd do one here because the quality/price ratio is still more than reasonable. I haven't tried applying for jobs yet, as this whole university thing still looms over my head. The plan is to make the decision as soon as possible and act accordingly (either start interviewing or return to school.)
If they paid me to be on-call as much as they payed my father (doctor) to be on-call, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Maybe I would have regretted it in 10 years -- he sure did -- but I'd have loved it for a while.

Terrible pay and terrible hours and long school and hard work is just irredeemable.
Many Possible Worlds – How It Works
Taking this hypothetical in good faith how can it possible that one can work with a co worker who believes they are subhuman? A co worker who hates me for writing code they don’t like makes things like 360 reviews dicey, but a co worker who literally wants my death would make me concerned for every pr and 1:1.
Is there an app that can alert me when I'm in a tick-infested area? I don't think about ticks living in CA and I'm deadly afraid of being on a vacation and going on a hike and getting bit.
Thanks for the expanded thoughts. I see two problems:

1) You seem to include any kind of processing in "finding patterns". I wanted to both get your definition for "finding patterns" as well as the proof that this is how humans learn.

2) In the example of reading a book in class you fail to include the past history of experiences/learnings that takes place outside of class and which helps you to put the words in context. This might very well be a major differentiating factor compared to the first example.

To give a silly example: If I kick a wall and get a pain response through my toes which teaches me to not do that again, did I learn this by observing a pattern? Is that really a useful model for how the learning took place? Surely there was a pattern, perhaps even several ones, no denying that, but I highly question the accuracy and thus general usefulness of this model for learning.

Depending on definition, finding patterns could mean just about anything, thus meaning nothing.

Even a superficial glance would tell you that this doesn't make sense. We have had >70 years of peaceful nuclear power. A significant anti nuclear movement has existed for maybe 40 years and it has clearly not been influencial until maybe the last 20 years. So why has the nuclear power industry not solved the issues in the first 30 years? Moreover, why has France which hasn't had a significant antinuclear movement ever solved any of the issues?
yeah, the whole thing reads like clown city. "I'm way more studied on policy topics" is not exactly the sure sign of an even-handed CEO who's doing a good job at generating consensus or taking feedback. "whether differences in human sex exist at all" is what sexists say when they want to pretend they're just being reasonable, and "hey we have to fire people because they're upset about DEI, feeling disrespected in the workplace, and debates about THE FREAKING N-WORD" is just incredibly unprofessional.

not needing to have debates about the N-word has got to be the absolute definition of table stakes when it comes to competent management. this is the funniest Twitter thread I've read in ages.

edit: and this is the CEO's pitch for RECRUITING! this is clown shit on the level of Theranos, or when Coinbase was handling all its financial transactions through Mongo.

Disagree. We’re already past peak combustion vehicle sales per Bloomberg NEF, and the rate of EV sales will only increase based on operating costs versus combustion vehicles.

Lots of folks interested in EVs when fuel is $5-6/gallon, which will remain for some time. Gotta scale up faster, build the machine that builds the machine and whatnot.

Yes - the caveat here is that if the raise is due to inflation then your real post-tax salary can go down.

(i.e. For an absurd example - suppose inflation is 100%. Last year you made 50K, this year you make 100K, which is the same in real terms (after inflation)). However, you will pay more of that 100K in tax than you would have last year, so your real income will decrease.

This tax drag can also happen for investments. If your investment goes up 100% and inflation is also 100%, you pay tax on the inflated nominal value of your investment even though the real value has not changed. Long term capital gains taxes are one way to reduce the impact of this - but they don't eliminate it altogether.

Tax brackets are usually (but not always) inflation-indexed to avoid this effect.
Yes. As long as said person does not bother them at work.

I also learned from the YT comments that there is a theory that the Phoenecians might have crossed the Atlantic to South America, and that they might have brought back cocaine that was used by upper-class Egyptians. I expected this to be some kind of fringe conspiracy theory, but the Wikipedia page (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_Phoenician_discove...) suggests that anthropologists think it's totally possible, but lacking in actual archaeological evidence to support it. Cool!
