My dad made around a quarter million a year as an airline pilot and was unable to make use of tax deductions to avoid the 75% taxes. When Reagan did his thing my dad's tax rate went down to around 33% or something like that. My dad loved to go around town bragging about his money and his income. When Reagan's tax cut gave him what amounted to roughly doubling his income he made sure everyone within a radius of five miles or so knew about that. His take home pay went from roughly $65k to $165k and he couldn't stop talking about that. And your point is some population level statistics make that into something that doesn't count. Maybe you need to take a walk and talk to some people to get a clearer idea of how people think about all this?

I've heard of food poisoning before, but not too many cases of people losing organs over it. At any rate, lectins (and other antinutrients) are evolutionary defense mechanisms (poison) to prevent insects from devouring plants wholesale.

Modern cars are so numb. Engineers have worked hard to remove all sense of tactile inputs and feedback. My 2000 manual acura I could drive blind. I could feel intimate details of the road surface through the wheel, and exactly what rpm I was at through the pedals and the shifter especially (to a lesser extent the wheel and seat as well because the entire car would vibrate). Put snow tires on and go out in a blizzard and you are in complete control of all things. You feel the minute traction slips, you feel how it feels when it comes back, you feel what its like to hold traction and maintain control versus letting it go. You become a much better driver.

Unfortunately due to some circumstances I am saddled with a 2018 era econobox that feels like its made by fisher price, but should my finances change the first thing I'm doing is buying something old enough to order its own drinks. Peak car was 25 years ago. We had our 35mpg by then and side curtain airbags. We are on the decline. Buy these assets now while they are still under 25 grand or be forever lusting in the decades from now when no sensible car is made anymore and all the decent used stock is going to collector auctions instead of used car lots.

Genpax | Engineers (full stack, frontend/backend, devops) | Notting Hill, London | ONSITE (hybrid/flexible) | https://www.genpax.co/

Genpax is building a game-changing bacterial analysis platform. This is an opportunity to have a real-world impact on thousands of lives each year.

Infection control is the practical, evidence-based approach which prevents patients and health workers from being harmed by avoidable infection. No one should catch an infection while receiving health care, yet, these infections can spread through outbreaks and regular care practices, affecting hundreds of millions of people across the world every year.

At Genpax our goal is to radically increase the utility, scalability, and speed with which genome sequencing data delivers infection control solutions for human and animal healthcare worldwide. This will enable proactive control at early stages of outbreaks, and to respond appropriately to more dangerous or more antibiotic resistant strains. We have developed unique solutions to address the challenges and our goal is to provide access to these solutions in a fully scalable system.

We already have a world-class scientific team of bioinformaticians, and we're building out an engineering team to match. We need to productionise the analysis pipeline to scale out, and design and build a stunning user-facing product. We’re still in early stages - so far we’re using Python, GraphQL and React/TypeScript/d3.

Does anyone ever log in multi dimensional way at all?

Everyone seems to just go,

logger.info('Doing that')

But logs really should be covering the context instead of being single dimensional by being placed at the execution point, which will also make the code far more readable.

//Sorry, I don't know python well but trying to run a lambda as a parameter.
myLogger.info('Doing that', lambda : (
doThat()
whatNot()))

And then, you know exactly what the log is covering as well as take a benchmark of the said part and report how long it took to run.

You don't need 'Done that' logging, as if you throw inside, the log doesn't happen.

You might want to know 'Doing that' was run even if it threw inside, but if logging is paired with an error reporting tools like Sentry, which is quite essential than depending on simple logging, you can know the stack trace easily to track which part of the code was run.

It seems no logging libraries do it the multidimensional way but it's an essential part of how I do logging.
Nah the IRS has frozen bank accounts multiple times merely because people owned cash businesses where they made sub-10k deposits on the regular without any intention to structure it. It's frighteningly easy to lose access to your bank account in the US.

I think what you might be missing is that "they" has been a different group of people each time since the original two games—this is the first Ron Gilbert Monkey Island game since LeChuck's Revenge. I believe Gilbert has also said that he's disregarding everything in Monkey Island "lore" that he wasn't around for the writing of. because of all of this, the franchise has a general identity problem, including a visual identity problem. most people who are excited to play Return to Monkey Island are not coming from a place of "well most of the rest of the games looked different from one another, let's see something new!" I think most people expected the franchise to either maintain its new "Remastered" look, or look closer to the original two games. personally I'm glad they chose neither!

the backlash only seems disproportionate due to reporting on it. "New Game In Franchise Looks Different From Old Games In Franchise, Many Anonymous Internet Users Vocally Upset About This, Like Everything Else, As Per Usual" doesn't really have the same emotional galvanization effect, see?

You mean like Earnst & Young who was just fined $100 million for overlooking cheating by their employees on the ETHICS portion of the CPA exam? I agree something is severely broken about Tether, but it’s also clear that auditing firms can be crooked, too. I would not trust an audit to expose Tethers shortcomings. After all, the auditors can only report on the documentation provided to them … they specifically do not determine the legitimacy or validity of the documents provided (iow, false documents are not vetted in any way).

I always resisted garlic in a tube or jar because it tasted a little off to me. (And, sure, maybe because I was a bit snobby.)

But my supermarket started stocking Doro frozen minced garlic (and ginger!) and it's a game changer. Tastes the same to me, and so much easier. Haven't bought a head of garlic in months.
I know only because I volunteer in AP CS classrooms. Linked Lists are covered fairly early in the course. Doubly linked list insertion is one of the standard reversed classroom (?) labs in one of those teacher's courses (but not others; we spent more time on trees in one class and one of the teachers was quite bad and spent a hilarious quantity of time on String.format). In the DLL lab the kids do just fine in an hour or so. They do not see DLLs before that but it is the final lab of the linked lists section.

My high school did not offer CS except as an independent study (you could technically do anything as an independent study, so "offer" is shorthand for "convince a teacher to let you sit in their classroom during planning period and find a way to sit for the AP CS exam").

There have existed high school CS courses since the 80s. (The AP CS exam was introduced in 1984.)
Even if you only take courses that aren't wastes of time, there just isn't that much to do on a typical day. I remember when I was in school I was taking something like 5 AP courses senior year but still had multiple study halls per day, a useless homeroom which was basically a buffer for people getting to school late, a gym class, and a 40 minute lunch. Almost half the day was time not spent in lecture. A lot of the time is literally babysitting.

This is how people can go to college and spend comparatively little time in class yet learn more than they did in high school.

This helps hospitals get paid by insurance companies (= direct revenue incentive in the short term). In the long term, this creates clean data for improving healthcare research, quality, and delivery.

Traction: We grew to >$1M in contracted revenue before raising, and have since closed a Seed round led by Floodgate & Flare Capital. There is enough market demand for us to 10X in the next 18 months and enough capital for >2 years.

Team: Highly technical founders (two physicians with technical backgrounds & can code + a quant engineering director at a global investment bank). Rest of the team includes an ex-ASF board member, ex-Googler, and other cool people!

Who we are looking for:

- Full stack engineers

- Senior front end engineers

- Senior product designers

Be part of the founding journey as we hone in on our PMF and build to scale! For more, see: https://smarterdx.notion.site/Why-SmarterDx-99ce53e9e2fb4b8e...

What I heard is that the sprouts can contain high concentrations of nasty stuff, I'd always assumed that those were created during the sprouting, that might be something different as well, should probably check. But I think the consensus is that if you fry sprouts just the right amount (to denature the toxins but not the other nutrients) they're a lot healthier than cooked beans, otherwise they may contain toxins (or not many nutrients at all). It was never a gamble I felt comfortable making, so I sort of abstained from them.

> ensure you have a recent enough version of Java installed

Now we know why TFA thinks clojure is the only lang to innovate wrt state problems :)

Joking aside, I no longer have a JDK in any of my builds and couldn't be happier. Oracle has made the JDK practically into spyware.

Given the success of rust, haskell and go, it seems antiquated to be designing another JVM lang in this day and age ...
Not to mention the fact that it will eventually cause a supply shortage.
My experience exactly. I wrote an emulator in Rust for a thing implemented on an FPGA that generates a video signal. For the first pass, I just ported the Verilog code to Rust, essentially: big loop over all the pixels every frame, figure out which color it should be, return that. There are a ton of ways to factor things out of that so you're not doing repeated reads of stuff, and I was going to gradually put them in until it was fast enough...

And then the naive solution ran at 100 fps.

So uh. Okay then. I see the value in Rust now.
Passwords are broken because people choose “password123”. People work on all sorts of alternatives because of this.
That "No depositor has ever lost a penny of insured deposits since the FDIC was created in 1933" claim is in reference to just the insured part of the deposits (as in up to the limits).

FDIC is required to go with the resolution that will cost the least to the fund. An acquirer offering to take on all Deposits rather than just insured deposits is typically not a big problem for the acquirer, and can save a surprising amount of money on the FDICs side, so most acquisition offers tend to be for all deposits rather than just insured deposits. (It also tends to keep your new customers happier if they did not lose money, which is very much an actual consideration that goes into bidding on a failing bank).

However, sometimes a bank will successfully bid for only the insured portions of deposit accounts. This happened with The Enloe State Bank in 2019, where Legend Bank's bid to acquire just the insured portions of deposit accounts.

Nevertheless, losing deposits over the insured amount in a bank closure is definitely the exception and not the norm in recent times.

Hi, I'm Xe Iaso. I'm never going to write about V again. I'm only keeping my old articles up out of a desire to not break links. Even if I took it down, it's still in the internet archive's wayback machine, so there is no point in me removing my articles.

If the V person unblocks me and unbans me from the places I've been banned from (at least Twitter, GitHub and Discord), I'd be happy to add a disclaimer about the post being "out of date".

I want V to succeed because competition is good, but I also need to call out misleading statements for what they are.

Believe what you want, but I did not write those articles in an attempt to "smear" or "defame" V or its team. I regret writing these articles as they have created negativity and hate that is slung around like candy for no real reason. I have no plans to write anything about V on my blog in the future and this experience has taught me many things about how to write about programming languages in the future.
