Obviously. If you CAN wait (like me) then you should wait. What I found interesting was the shifting business model. Just like housing pre-2008 it seems values are being driven up by "easy money".
How do you calculate that price? How would you enforce it globally?
The best method for fleeting notes is literally whatever you have closest to your fingers in the moment you need to capture something. It's silly to suggest it is "best" to capture a fleeting thought with pen/paper if you're holding your phone and the pen/paper is in the other room. This is bad advice.
This is another good example of how consistency, determination, and effort can really make big things happen. (It's also an example of why we should force ourselves to put some of our energy into long term efforts, the results of which we may never personally experience.)
I wonder how feasible it would be to count on Starship to succeed, so that each flight could deliver one hexagonal mirror segment, eventually culminating in a giant composite mirror
I think the ship has sailed on that one, the time to make(and test) a second one would have been at the same time the first was being manufactured.
The first chart[1] in the article shows a stark contrast between the "price to income ratios" of even countries that share a border. That suggests that government policy plays an important role.

This is no longer true and there seems to be a regression in the length of the lifespan of the car, due to cost of repairs and other factors.

The golden age for reliability was when we had significant manufacturing advancements and improvement in engine building with tighter tolerances but lack of all the tech.

The problem is now with the tech, and average car owner has yet to realize just how expensive that tech is. Windshield replacement used to be $150, this is no longer the case. Now, if you have radar cruise control, it needs calibration. Some cars have acoustic glass, which is more expensive.

The cars have sensors all over, minor crash results in thousands in damage. LED headlights are $2k a piece.

Even Tesla, imagine the car is now 10 years old, worth $10k, is someone going to buy a new battery for $10k? There is going to be better tech out there and faster charging times.

Additionally, look at cost of ownership of something like an S class, those things become cheaper than Accords after few years. The reason is that all that tech is hard to maintain and now some of it trickled down into the main stream cars.

$127K household income in NYC will qualify you for rent-stabilized apartments... so this seems very off in terms of measurement for larger cities
these types of notes are among some of the most important notes I take during my day to day. I'll have a quick thought about something, jot it down and completely forget about it, and come back to it later in the day when I have space to think and it'll jog my memory and send me right back down the rabbit hole.

The key to fleeting notes for me is pairing Obsidian with iCloud to get sync for free. It actually does _just work_.
I don't mind this kind of passing bugs in win11 which, as trust breaking as they are, also easily go away. What kills me with 11 (and 10 afaik) is the cpu and ram consumption of the system itself. Antivirus / antimalware randomly spike and make the whole system slow. Logging in sometimes takes a whole minute for what I assume is checking stuff with azure ad. This is the kind of stuff that I would love to see fixed, and at the same time know will never be. Resource consumption of the OS doesn't seem to be a priority and that's a shame. Meanwhile even a default install of Ubuntu is much leaner and makes you forget the os, while being much more consistent.

(side note, win ui is also very clunky and you can easily identify all the generations of OSs since XP by using just the right click menu and the settings windows. Tells something about attention to details, you clearly see a pm in a subteam with a concept, rather than a consistent overall experience )
The issue at hand is that Undecided presents press releases as fact, without adding any fact checking or caveats that come along with them. One of his most recent videos about hydrogen storage disks basically highlights this more directly, since he presents this technology as if it's a solved problem when in actuality it's more so a barely formed idea with many many caveats.

Germany has 40k km of rail vs 5k km in Switzerland. So the difference is not that big. However for the population size it is too small of a network.
First side (actually): "The term 'biological female' reflects a high school level understanding of DNA and genetics. Unfortunately, real genetics is much more complex, and many women who were born and lived their entire lives as women would be flagged by systems to detect so called 'biological women'. Your use of the term is ill defined and unscientific, and any attempt to enforce it is going to hurt both trans and cis women."
Well, it's a little more complicated than that.

The municipality (the county, in the region of the country I'm in) sets the budget for the year, then each property's owner pays taxes in the amount of the fraction of the property's assessed value divided by the total assessed value of all property in the county times the annual budget.

E.g. if the county's annual budget is $1,000, and there are three properties in the county assessed at $200,000, $300,000, and $500,000, then the property taxes for each property are $200, $300, and $500, respectively.

Our county happens to have pretty conscientious governance: all properties in the county are re-assessed every two years and budget increases are in-line with inflation, so property taxes have increased very gradually since we moved in ~17 years ago. If the county doesn't have the workforce to assess all properties in the county as frequently and there are large increases in assessed values then property taxes can (temporarily) be significantly increased, which might be what is happening around Austin.
How can it not hurt poor people more? Food prices, gas prices, rent increases are things that are critical for survival for poor people. Rich person in a Tesla is not affected. If you are a minimum wage or near minimum wage earner, you have no margin to deal with price increases. We are talking about hurt in the sense of survival, not rich ppl crying about losing their stablecoin.
A car with knock sensor will detect lower-quality fuel and pull back timing. This will usually limit your power, but not damage your car. My car manual even explicitly states that it won't affect engine lifetime.

Full disclosure, I still use premium anyway because I want to keep the car for a long time and I don't fully believe this disclaimer.
Not only in CS, it is hard as organisation design as well. E.g. do you want an engineering team, or do you want a product team that has engineer so to eliminate silo. Should engineer care about hiring? Or that's HR's concern. What about security? What about how good the product is performing? What about customer feedback? Should engineer care for all that? Organisation of code is miniature version organisation of a company. Of you nail it, that's your secret sauce
Water generally flows down. If you have a high water table building basements is usually foolish.

Limestone, because it dissolves in contact with acidic water (and rainwater is slightly acidic) is also prone to sinkholes. Best to keep the ground stable by not exposing it to more water. It happens so often in Florida there’s an FAQ page. https://floridadep.gov/fgs/sinkholes
> That's a discussion point pretty much every time the amyloid hypothesis is mentioned in the scientific literature

I don't feel like that's true. Back when I was a grad student doing this research it was striking to me how little that was in the literature considering how much we said it internally.

Politely suggesting that false has some negative connotations, perhaps "artificial" would be a better word... or even illustrative or representational.
But if you still hate this so much, you can live far enough from the city that it's not economical to build next door to you, or you can own enough land that it won't be an issue.

It appears that couple hours ago you did not count either as a negative externality, are you sure you are arguing in a good faith?
We might simplify the topic: Copyright is also a network - "all in the name of preserving Top 40 music, reality TV shows, and Ashton Kutcher movies."

Computers are a network even without internet. (you can carry floppies) This network does everything. It touches everything. We all want to pay for it. Our money goes towards making the network more useful.

The copyright network really has very few players interested in preserving and expanding it but we all pay for it.

> when the nations of the world send their U.N. missions to Geneva, they send water experts, not copyright experts. They send health experts, not copyright experts. They send agriculture experts, not copyright experts, because copyright is just not as important.

But it consumes the same budget. We have finite resources, finite expertise and finite moving hands. It means people are dying, health is declining, agriculture is hindered, water is polluted etc

Meanwhile youtube is deleting just about everything. 3 strikes and everything you've ever published there is gone. Knowledge is lost. We don't know what impact it has but it is safe to assume stuff wont be what it should have been if the maker cant see videos important to his task.

More obvious it gets with scientific publications that cite lists of papers and books that are no longer available.

We need a new network to make sure people get paid for the useful things they make. It can simply be paid for in advance. It's not a challenge.
Humans benefit from using energy, but our current energy systems release terrifying amounts of greenhouse gases. Continued global heating will involve mass death, and a great deal of human suffering along the way. Energy use is necessary to support human life, but limiting energy use is vital to avoid climate catastrophe. It's not a fun problem to have, but you can't wish it away by saying "but people need and enjoy energy!" Of course they do, that's why we need to limit energy use, so that they can enjoy energy in the future, rather than suffering the complete collapse of the systems that allow them to enjoy energy.
Oops, my bad! I knew it was something to do with equality, but I forgot the specifics… Another good reason not to rely on tricks, I suppose!
I previously worked at Intersection, an out-of-home (OOH) advertising company. Intersection does digital screens (displays and kiosks) in addition to traditional formats.

This is all public information that was previously shared, so it may be out of date: the devices are Linux (Ubuntu) [1], running an advertising player (Broadsign) [2], which has Chromium Embedded (CEF) for web content [3]. The kiosk app was written in React [4]. It does things like load most data ahead of time to provide that "instant" feeling [5].

Try to direct your personal energy away from getting your code into the product and towards making the best product possible. Often after building a feature it is obvious that it makes the product worse. I've had many such features cut.
Come to Bulgaria - in the south there are mild winters, in the summer - there's a great beachside.

You get some of the fastest internet in Europe for cheap, taxes stand at 10% flat rate, 20% VAT.

Houses in the vicinity of major cities are dirt cheap, compared to your standards (you can probably start off renting for something like 400-500 euro/month).

There're a lot of IT companies, but of course you can't expect the same salaries that you're accustomed to, though if you can land a Germany job that'll let you remote from here - it's a great deal.

Germany is a 1 hour flight away, usually for fairly cheap.
> I feel with all the web3 hyperbole Silicon Valley itself has become a parody of its former self.

I agree. With web3 the tech seems to take a backseat to the ideological flamewar of fiat currency vs. digital "gold". Most web3 discussions are about economic theory and esoteric financial jargon (leveraging, shorts, counterparty risk, etc.) and not Merkel trees, or cryptography, or any of that stuff.

Any sense for when it will "get back to normal" for the car industry?
All the comments are giving unequivocal yes’s, I’ll note that some cars (my buddy’s Subaru) will say they require premium but work just fine without. Currently going 240k miles still strong.
I found the example used in an anti-multitasking book I read to be both simple and compelling. The idea was to write all letters from a to z and all numbers from 0 to 25. Compare the total time between writing the alphabet first and then the numbers (abcd...; 1234...), vs. mixing the two (that is, a1b2c3d4...). The separate approach wins by a large margin, and is accessible to anyone to try themselves.
Income tax + business tax pile up to 50% already. I don't pay social taxes by choice, hence I do not benefit from the social net. If I add up all other taxes then, I end up pretty close at 70%. Meaning mostly VAT, taxes on gas and oil, alcohol, tobacco, final withholding tax on stock and crypto investments and speculation, vehicle tax, electricity tax. All in all there are close to 40 different types of tax, but we don't have to pay all of them. But being in the highest income tax band as a tech freelancer with virtually no deductible costs you pay taxes first, and then have to take care about health care, insurances and pension afterwards. Even if you make some good money, that does not leave you with a lot to live. At least that's our scenario for many years now.
Plants build sugar and starch molecules out of air and water, the carbon atoms come from the atmosphere, not underground, that's the crucial difference.

> The farming and transport also produces emissions and you lose a ton of energy on the way.

Yeah, you have to do it as part of a system that makes sense overall. E.g. small-scale local integrated CSA that also provides N gallons (or liters) per member of fuel per month as well as groceries. Something like that.
We were working on an accelerator board for a graphics system. It had a memory for textures to map onto shapes. The way the microcode was written, it wanted the texture memory to be "rectangular" - you would move the same distance in the source memory and the destination memory to start the next row.

Well, that meant that we had to manage the texture memory as 2D regions, rather than as a 1D linear space. We spent two days thinking about creating a malloc for rectangular blocks. Then we went back and told the microcode people to fix the microcode. I think it was a one-line change for them.

So, yeah. Sometimes it's massively easier to push back on a stupid requirement than it is to implement it.
Nearly all car loans for all of time have been underwater. It's a depreciating asset that drops a huge amount of value the moment of acquisition. Eventually the principal drops below the trade in value, but all car loans start out under water.
The data itself is a mess. There are no consistent reporting standards or definitions between countries, or even between states.
I think a big part of this topic discussion is that there's a LOT of value in those- that many disagreements are simply down to having a different understanding about context and facts, and that giving the other person the benefit of the doubt can help people navigate those. It actually seems like one of the most relevant cases to me.

Then why say “the definition of” when it should actually be “a symptom of”? That’s what bothers me about this phrase. It sounds intellectual but it doesn’t hold up under scrutiny.
> that we free up by making technology more energy efficient

This is 100% a fake problem that clearly does not exist if you understood anything about the energy market. Civilization is at an increasing rate consuming more electricity. Surely, someone who believes carbon emissions are destroying the planet would agree we need to electrify everything. Bitcoin consuming and therefore monetizing stranded and/or temporary excess amounts of energy make accelerated electrification of our society a much more realistic endeavor. Having an electricity dung-beetle, a buyer of last resort, is a revelation.
There's a Package for That – NPM's Single Use Packages
My last (used) car shopping experience saw me struggling to get over paying more than $10k for a car, because we really wanted a minivan and they're (IMO) damned expensive. That was a few years ago.

I am... concerned about how painful the next one's going to be, in 3-5 more years. I hate spending money on cars.

EVs don't seem to be helping the price any—quite the opposite, as far as I can tell—even if they're good for TCO. Concerned about what that market's looking like for poor people, these days. No more $2k cars that'll semi-reliably get you to work for the next five years, or to the 50-miles-away grocery store or Wal-Mart for your "big shopping" once every couple weeks, for the rural poor.
I think that's why it's good that antitrust is more than just monopoly but also and other anticompetitive practices.

I would like to see law begin to start with an implicit bias for the underdog, but unfortunately Citizens united and the general principle of money in politics means that larger entities will have disproportionate sway (due to Pareto principle of accrual).
I'm going to disagree. All of my fleeting notes go in 1 place so I can look at them all later. Having them in my phone, notebook, napkin in the kitchen, etc etc is not ideal. I'm certainly not going to forgot what I need to write down if I just need to go to the other room and grab my notepad.

So the wealthy are concerned about their investments, while the poor are concerned about where they’re going to get their next meal, or if they can afford to pay rent next month. And that’s an equal amount of “hurt” in your view?
Why not read the original article that actually answers this question? The way we found out about faked data is also through science.

So, is this a feel-good comment to "stick it to the science" when you are on a tech forum? Or did you find this mistake first and feel vindicated that your position is correct?

Just crowing about capitalism means nothing. After all, the incentive to cheat also came from the same capitalism.
A good way around this for people who absolutely want a new car is to buy electric and enjoy the fuel and maintenance savings. Inflation has hit EVs too, but at least the other costs are a lot lower, bringing the TCO to on par or better.
>The problem is that their ideologies require an enemy, an underclass etc

In my experience, this seems central to almost all ideologies. A common enemy, often greatly embellished or grossly misrepresented, has been used to bolster tribal cohesion since before humanity. I'm trying to think of an ideology that doesn't use this, but I'm coming up blank.
Yes, and lasers that do exactly that have advanced very quickly. We're up to multi-petawatt picosecond lasers now. We're getting high repetition rates instead of the once or twice per day of NIF, by using laser diodes in place of flashlamps. There are dozens of extreme laser facilities operating or under construction all over the world. And if I'm not misinterpreting this, efficiency is as high as 60%:

> they mention that a member of the upper-middle class, Mr. Yu, purchased a new home, a duplex, and an 8-unit apartment complex during the pandemic.

A lot of people who though they were "comfortably rich" in the last couple of years are having a bad wake-up call that their loan interest or income was not as predictably favourable as they imagined.

This is probably not the same thing as "being squeezed".

That is what is known as a "mistake". It happens and one day it could happen to you, so don't laugh at the people going through it. None of us should be smug about it or do the "don't invest money you don't have" etc.

What I take offense to in this article is the passive voice around it where "they get squeezed" instead of "I lost money".

The same applies if you took a margin call in the last 6 months after borrowing against $AMZN and buying BTC with it. Does it suck, YES. Worse, you could owe the IRS money for the margin call sale.

All of that said, there was a specific video that this guy reminded me of from "How Money Works".

It specifically called out "Own a bunch of properties" as a "Buying yourself a new job", rather than being comfortable.
