>central bankers are robbing people of their past value of their labour, especially low income labourers, to make themselves look like they are doing the country a solid

No, that's not at all the reason. Low targeted inflation is to prevent the wild economic swings that preceded central banking as wild inflation and deflation routinely wiped out people, including low income laborers. Take some time with this list of historical US recessions [1]

Virtually zero people hold pure cash as their only wealth, so virtually zero people lose value over time from low inflation. Other goods like real estate, stocks, etc., rise with inflation. Wages rise with inflation. So your low income laborer part getting robbed makes no sense.

The reason inflation target of zero is not used is to avoid deflationary spirals, a lesson learned again over history through repeated painful events.

The evidence on these is so solid every single country, all 200ish choose this system. It's not a grand conspiracy of evil wizard people. It's what educated people choose as a solution to past problems. If other systems worked better for an economy, don't you think at least 1 of 200ish countries would be doing it?

>E.g. for instance missing the value of entertainment.

There are hundreds of different ways to get entertainment. Humanity will not be worse off if gambling is entirely banned. How much "entertainment value" does daydreaming from a lottery ticket really bring? Why should those addicts be subjected to the misery they experience dealing with their addiction just so you can pretend to win the lottery in your head? You could just as easily spend your time pretending that you find a giant, valuable diamond in the dirt.
This IRIS entry is the same with Privium in Schiphol (which, as of this time is not accepting people).

But, what I don't understand, why the hate on the e passport gates? I really like them at Schiphol. There are usually about 8 of them and in my experience there are always more egates open then actual officers. And they are on par or faster than an officer.

Could it be more efficient? yes. But, if the alternative is an old fashioned officer this is better.

The last comment is pretty trashy
Ionizing irradiation is already used a very great deal, at least in the US, to kill insect eggs and larvae in imported produce.

It is not used more than it is, e.g. at high enough intensity to kill microbes, because that damages flavor and texture.

So it is not, in fact, fear of radiation that prevents that use.

Another reason, though, is that everybody knows meat packers would then completely abandon any pretense of sanitation, and all the meat they buy would have shit all over it.

(Technically, the irradiation is mostly done before it crosses the US border.)

Nobody knows what possibly-toxic chemicals that never occur in nature or in cooking are produced by intensely irradiating any particular foodstuff. Of course the mix would be different for every single species irradiated. So, everybody involved just hopes nobody will succeed in proving anything, is careful to ensure somebody else will be blamed if anybody ever does, and tries not to attract attention. The US DA and FDA help with this last.

Mo Farah Reveals That He Is a Survivor of Human Trafficking
When I worked in consulting we had a large retail client who had a lot of turn-over and was looking for ways to "stabilize" hiring. (Short of paying more money, of course!) When we looked into it their system was regularly over-scheduling shifts "just in case" there was a rush and then having store managers "cut" shifts if there wasn't a rush. There aren't a lot of surprise "rush" shifts in shopping malls outside of the holiday season so sometimes employees would come in, work an hour of a scheduled eight hour shift, and then get cut. The cuts tended to happen by "seniority" (so newest hires, paid the least) and a decent number of these employees who were frequently cut were traveling at least an hour by public transportation. Some days employees lost money by going to work.

We were thrilled by what we'd found! It would be a quick and easy fix for the client: they had solid and reliable sales forecasts for each location so estimating the number of employees they'd need on a given day wasn't going to be difficult. In fact, they were more or less already doing it. It would hardly cost them anything to implement aside from a few tweaks to the corporate scheduling tool and a bit of training for the store managers. So when management immediately shot down our proposed solution it came as a bit of shock. The erratic scheduling and the "cut" shifts were a feature, not a bug, we were told. It kept employees from getting a second job that they might dare prioritize over their current job.

It's certainly not ok. But I'm certainly not losing sleep over it, because the worst case is really not that bad.

Yeah, and if you look carefully, the root of the problem here is not inside Uber. I keep hopping some high-profile criminal acts on exactly the correct way to disrupt the Justice system and for it to change into something more democratic, but well, that's pretty unlikely. Odds are getting higher that my country will get a plain old revolution to change that, what is a much worse option.

The answer is easy. They are going to claim the money from the reserves that were put on hold until the war ends.

E.g. if Russia would continue with gas supplies, the money for gas would got into the locked accounts. After war would end, Russia would get locked accounts minus reparations. Now if Russia stops supplies, after war ends Russia will get locked accounts minus reparations minus penalties for the failure to deliver gas.
I don't know about Proxima Centauri b, but they'll be spending around 25% of "Cycle 1" (the first 6,000 hours of science) working on exoplanets, don't worry:

"Over the coming year, researchers will use spectroscopy to analyze the surfaces and atmospheres of several dozen exoplanets, from small rocky planets to gas- and ice-rich giants. Nearly one-quarter of Webb’s Cycle 1 observation time is allocated to studying exoplanets and the materials that form them." - https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/goddard/2022/nasa-s-webb-...

And then people get cost of living raises - that's why almost all income groups have seen wage growth in inflation adjusted dollars since, well, 100+ years.

Maybe I was not clear: the quantity of green hydrogen we can produce is negligible because the amount of energy needed to extract it is so high, the amount of energy needed to compress it in a tank, respect of the rate of usage in a fuel cell makes the balance ridiculous: you need a hectare of p.v. to produce few grams per day of hydrogen or you need a good sunny day to produce enough for a mile or two in a fuel-cell powered car. At that point the entire "economy" is just marketing.
the nikon z50 WIth lens comes out to 999. technically under 1k.

they also recently released the new z30 whihc eschws the evf for just the backmuond display. its definitely a compromised design heavily geared towards youtubers rather than still photography but it uses the same mount and lenses and retails for
$849 WITH lens.

I'd most definitely qualify either as Entry level so I'm not sure what you're getting at here.

I myself sprang for the z5 for the full frame, absolutely loving it.
Better science and tech than the other guy gives you a military advantage. Thus some fraction of your science funding is effectively military funding, and some fraction of your military funding is well spent on science.

Also, more science projects lead to more experienced scientists and engineers, which leads to a stronger pool for the defense industry.
You made a solid choice, the 5D4 is an excellent body- I usually keep it nearby and constantly with a lens on it ready to go when I need it.

Have you tried the eye tracking auto focus on the R5? It's actually pretty phenomenal and can help a lot when photographing wildlife. Funny story though, if you're photographing animals with white butts and black tails (like a bighorn sheep) from behind..it's gonna track the butt as if it were a face. That made me laugh when it happened.
My apologies, I was referring to immediately putting sous vide items in a 50+% ice bath. I had turned off the Sous Vide and forgot about it. When I came back, the 10 gallon bucket was close to room temperature 24 hours later.

Upon further reading, it appears I could have served it immediately. Maybe. But the warm pasturization won't kill certain bacteria which can then proliferate. Which is why transiting the danger zone of 140f down to 40f very fast is necessary.

"Moreover, while keeping the food sealed in plastic pouches prevents recontamination after cooking, spores of Clostridium botulinum, C. perfringens and B. cereus can all survive the mild heat treatment of pasteurization. Therefore, after rapid chilling, the food must either be frozen or held at

below 36.5°F (2.5°C) for up to 90 days,
below 38°F (3.3°C) for less than 31 days,
below 41°F (5°C) for less than 10 days, or
below 44.5°F (7°C) for less than 5 days

to prevent spores of non-proteolytic C. botulinum from outgrowing and producing deadly neurotoxin (Gould, 1999; Peck, 1997)." [1]

> Ownership remains decentralized because the recovery address cannot make a transfer that the custody address does not approve.

This isn't true though?

If I go out camping for a week and the recovery address transfers my identity, I won't be asked to approve; it'll simply go through after waiting 3 days.
I agree with this for sure. The concept of luck surface area is incredibly powerful and can significantly impact how you interact with the world in a ~professional context.

Great article.
Today’s episode of Modernity Is Built On Sand…

I’m not clear why Windows is unaffected. Does Windows already use the recommended mitigations, and if so does it already suffer from the performance penalty?
Yes, absolutely. This is one of the factors that contributes to people having a general aura of getting repeatedly lucky.
Most people just want an allocator that works reasonably well, and maintaining that expectation means not exposing too many details that you might be held accountable to. If you care deeply, there are usually alternatives.

There's nothing really stopping systems from exposing a hint for controlling this, but usually the people who might care about it don't just want hints, but actual guarantees, and then you have to consider all the users who hint incorrectly (or correctly, but for a different system/version). So, the benefit/cost ratio is low.

Integration of GC with thread scheduling was once an active area of research, but the world has mostly moved on (perhaps prematurely, but so goes).

NGC3372 is inside our galaxy, just 8500 light years away. It's not redshifted by metric expansion to any appreciable degree, (A calculator I just checked gave me a z of 0.000000617) and radial velocity is a sedate ~34 km/s. (z = 0.000000115)

The redshift on the other JWST images is because most of them are of objects that are much, much, much farther away. Infrared telescopes are great for observing those, but that's not the only thing they're used for.
If one of your main concerns is performance, then all I can say is don't use Blazor. WASM will never be able to compete with regular JS so long as it has to go through an interop layer, plus it has to send down and parse an entire interpreter before it can even start looking at your actual UI and business logic. Server Side has to wait for a server response for every single action you take, and any small drops can make the entire thing sluggish, or even buggy.

That's not to say it isn't cool and can't work for some projects where say, development speed is more important, but performant it just aint.
Yes, they absolutely have not sorted it out. However, currently when you're working for a social media company this sort of behavior while not normal, has to be accounted for.

I wish I could be more sympathetic, there are people sharing information and entertainment on youtube that is priceless. But they're working for a faulty employer with a poor history of worker rights. Worker beware.
I take this as a joke.
There are tons of papers on the information asymmetry in ride sharing. I’ve seen more than one paper claim that after fuel costs and depreciation Uber drivers are on average making less than the minimum wage. But since those costs can be quite high drivers believe they’re making a decent bit above minimum wage. This would easily be solved by regulation forcing Uber to spell these costs out on paystubs, the only downside is that drivers would demand more.
Ironically the place I'm getting forced A/B testing now is the Playstore. They moved the update apps section so it is now 2-3 clicks more, making me have to make a seperate shortcut just to reach the app update quickly.

The point is of course to make it annoying to manually update apps and enable auto update. I have been burned too many times with a auto update so I refuse.

This wasn't enough, they really want to force me enable auto updates to the point of the update section of the app having 50% of the visible space on my big screen being covered with a message to enable auto update over WiFi. [0]

I don't get it at all.

Music quiz games are fun.

But why limit to 1 a day? They're going for Wordle-style "cultural trendiness", maybe hoping to draw people to Spotify if a daily Heardle trends on Twitter.

Not gonna happen. Wordle was a flash in the pan. It's already dying.[0][1][2][3] And I doubt a "mee too" product will go as viral.

Spotify bought Heardle, kicked a few countries out that could previously play, and now can't, and took away people's stats. Heardle isn't trending on Twitter, and the Spotify subreddit literally isn't talking about it.

Compare:

https://www.similarweb.com/website/heardle.com/#overview

https://www.similarweb.com/website/wordle.com/#overview (they abandoned that domain name, switched to nytimes.com months ago)

It's not credible to spend (presumably) millions on this, when they're struggling to roll out Hi-Fi (7+ months overdue), their share price is down 73% from ATH, and YouTube Music and Amazon Music are gaining ground.

Spotify's CEO announced last month to investors that subscription price increases "are part of the strategy", though they're unlikely to do it in the next few months since they saw how it backfired for Netflix. Why not focus more on core service/social features, not gimmicks?

Not everywhere. In Terminal, the letters just repeat.
The site has hundreds of megabytes of images embedded into it, the "suffering from scale" thing is to mean that her approach was totally fine for the first few dozen of images but is impractical now. (I'm still not sure what you're asking)
Because light red shifts over time/expansion, you could color these towards blue until they cover parts of the human vision space to what they would look like on earth a billion years ago or so.

In that case you could render the image differently depending on how many millions of years in the past you were interested in.

I.e these used to be human “visible” on earth, but eventually their colors shifted beyond what we can perceive with our eyes.
Oh, I’ve never been asked questions at the VIP terminal. Just a quick look at my passport and they tell me I’m good to go.

Unsure what you want to explain or what your nine year old already knows, but generally I would start by explaining to him/her/them that these are pictures of very far away and enormous objects taken from a telescope that is located further away than the moon.

The telescope takes pictures in a different frequency band, like an infrared camera. These pictures are then color mapped to blue, green yellow and other colors that you normally see because just black and white image are boring to look at.
I wish the word "read" is read as read instead of read in past tense form.
My friends quit because they can't see the value of programming immediately. You start by learning variables, how to multiply 2 numbers, how to print text to the console etc. So they fail to understand how that can be useful when their perception of programming is building cool video games, complex software or websites.
