College education is/was one. Hard to tell these days with the high debt that comes with it for many but it can mean a complete change of lifestyle for the individual and his/her family.

In games you get a better result for the cycles by cheating rather than doing a physical simulation.

Live for speed IIRC did have a fully synthesized engine sound but most games now have samples and some clever interpolation / synthesis as mentioned by others.
That’s how people in the third world borrow from 100 people who don’t know that the borrower hasn’t paid back to 99 others. One fine day, the borrower disappears from where he lives and then files bankruptcy.
You missed the world of file hosting services connected to the world of piracy.

We landed on commercial coffee grinders for any with motors. The hand mill we ended up with does much better for pour-over coffee than any of the electrics at roughly a tenth of the price and counter space. Only requires elbow-grease and some good hand-torque.
Most definitely, the issue is they won't want to be the ones providing transparency into their own operations, for a variety of reasons.
Yup. There was also an economics paper by someone who abused the in game market (auction house).
It was ridiculous how long it took for them to be enshrined in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but that finally happened a few years back.
It's a commodity with a world market. Increasing supply doesn't have to be domestic to affect domestic prices.

World production should be going up in September. The 2020 deal that the US pressured OPEC into agreeing to (by threatening to cut military aid to Saudi Arabia) [1] that cut production by an amount equal to around 10% of the world's total production should expire then.

A link to a public git repository of the web site would be a great start. The site should already be in a VCS of some kind, just shove it on github or something where we can all see the history.
It is funny you mention that and I definitely agree about it not being studied enough ( especially given how much players are being watched today you would think there is enough data ). My first real encounter with inflation was in an MMO. It was fascinating how quickly player-base did what people in RL did ( moved to assets other than currency ).

Anecdotal, but I’m currently dealing with a broken fridge. It’s less than 2 years old and the compressor failed.

Repair tech said to contact a Frigidaire even though it has no warranty. He said he’s seen a stack of compressor failures on relatively new fridges.
>However if you lie, and client thinks thay you have insulated things that are impossible to insulate, thats fraud. And that's happening.

I agree fraud is happening in the UK, because the government specifically set up a market for recycling credits. However, I doubt consumers are thinking of that when they're chucking their appliances in the garbage bin. I myself were not aware of such a program, and unless such a program is widespread that example has limited applicability.

>Think about, whats the point of a recycling contract that says 'you could recycle only 0.1% if you feel like it'?

That's... basically how I treat most public recycling bins. They're some hopelessly contaminated with non-recyclables that I assume they're collected as trash. It's entirely unreasonable to expect that just because someone put something in the recycle bin, that the city would bend over backwards to ensure it's recycled. Again, I'm also not saying that there aren't people who actually believe that ("wishcycling" is a thing), but what I'm saying is that anyone who has given the topic a bit of thought would realize that:

1. not everything can be recycled

2. even something that could theoretically be recycled, can be contaminated so that it can't be recycled

3. recyclers are subject to economic constraints

4. therefore, it's entirely unreasonable to expect that everything that you throw in recycling ends up recycled

Applied to the original topic of appliances/electronics, this means that I expect they recycle the bits that are economically feasible to recycle, and toss the rest.

>that happens too. I have taken my old electronic goods to a commercial recycler. You have to pay to dispose of large appliances.

Right, but is the service you're paying for "getting rid of the electronics in a way that complies with local laws" or "getting rid of the electronics in a way that complies with local laws, and ensure that it gets properly recycled"?
I guess I don't understand. Sears sells the same Craftsman power tools I got from Lowe's.

Finding work sucks at first, though after a while you will develop long term relationships which are consistent and flexible.

I’ve had my #1 client for ten years and can do as much or little work as I want! I’ve only visited their office once every few years. It’s such a good relationship my client let’s me run my projects however I think appropriate.

Remarkable - I remember that key preventing the loading of extensions on startup back on System 7. It's cool that the intent of it has lasted so long.
It's often worth buying the first few generations of a new appliance - they are often over-engineered to some degree - or the MTTF isn't quite known to swap out parts.

A few years ago I replaced my dishwasher with a European one. It was great, quiet. Then, it wasn't. I learned because it doesn't have a heating element and you have to load the dishes in a particular way to have a chance at maximum drying.

I listened to the service technician go on about the particular way to use this machine for about 20 minutes and asked them if I bought a decent dishwasher to think about my dishwasher, or to never think about my dishwasher again.

Since then, I've has had to replace the key convector to open and close it for it to run. Based on other well engineered products and European brands, I'm comfortable that the failure is engineered to ensure my LTV to the brand is longer.

Perhaps a European car that falls apart after a certain amount of mileage is a status symbol for some. They are wonderful to drive, but I have better things to do.
also the first footnote is very bizarre
It kind of makes sense. Space program was in its infancy, so I would also expect the workforce knowledgeable about space to be in its infancy, because it's not like there were experienced people putting satellites in orbit in the '20s, let alone an education pipeline for it. And those were back in the days when people got pensions and had loyalty to companies and whatnot.

By 2009 the industry was old enough to have people close to retirement age who had studied it in college.

> John Deere is broadly understood to only make tractors.

It is not a tractor that is jailbroken here, though; not even a computer built into a tractor.

It is their "Universal Display" that has been jailbroken, which is a computer that is sold as an independent unit. Often you will move these displays between machines and, in some cases, even use them in tractors built by other manufacturers or even away from farm machines entirely.

For all intents and purposes it is a different category of product.

> You wouldn't refer to an iphone as an Apple because Apple is generally known to produce several different categories of products.

I expect the real difference here is that the iPhone is a household name. Most know what an iPhone is and are able to recognize one when they see it. It would absolutely get called "an Apple" if that is all that was known about the device. In fact, I know some not-so-technically-engaged people who do call their iPhone "an Apple", reflecting the branding visible on their device. Apple removed the iPhone logo several iterations ago.

How many are familiar with the 4640 Universal Display? Approaching nobody, I expect. Especially when at a tech conference and not a farm show. The device is branded with "John Deere" and no other visible markings, so it is understandable that it was called that in the absence of additional information.
I think the point was that your decision to use the abbreviation for child sexual abuse material as a synonym for Apple’s approach to scanning for it is unusual and potentially confusing. Semantics.
They’ve made a big dent in a lot of dedicated point-of-sale and other kiosk type systems, it seems.
I am probably politically opposed to the school of thought which lies behind this, Not the least because it's a product of Kings, and I worked at UCL and they are poles apart in motivation and intent educationally, historically (in the context of the university of london internal politics this is basically just a declaration of interest/bias)

Dr Adam Tebble is a Reader in Political Theory. Prior to joining King’s in 2011, Dr Adam Tebble taught at the School of Public Policy, UCL. In the United States he has taught at Brown University, where he was a Post-doctoral Research Fellow (2004-2006), then Lecturer (2006-2007) at the Department of Political Science.

He's both sides!

What concerns me is the naivety of this writing. Web 3.0 is basically a busted flush at this point. Etherium turned out to be functionally useless at preventing mis-use of the 'code is law' model, there is obvious signs that speculative gain dominates use of chain, in almost all fora of public engagement and the closed financial communities using it (reserve banks) either have specific problems to solve (lack of mutual trust, and a complete lack of a regulator: they're independent nation states, they can't have one) or have the regulator problem (the regulator either does it, or looks at some mutuality they do amongst themselves and asks if they can audit it)

I'm not an economist, or a political philosopher, but I am concerned at some of the implicit and explicit assumptions in the piece. Hayek is not exactly an un-loaded source of theory, any more than Marx is. So, don't mistake this for either words of pure wisdom, or politically neutral: It's not. Hayek leads to Thatcher. Hayek is walking away from the road to serfdom but towards a faux equivalent, in the impoverishment of workers when their rights to unionise are destroyed in the interests of libertarianism theories of what "should" be.

Do not mistake reserve bank interest in digital currency for the game playing inherent in Bitcoin, and do not mistake the pious hope of Etherium for emergent reality.

Have they moved to proof of stake yet? What do economists think about proof of stake? What units are the stake held in again?

College towns. Pick some states, and go visit towns with colleges in them. They'll have restaurants and groceries, and those faculty kids have to go to school somewhere. Internet should be passable, too. They won't be the cheapest small town option, but houses should come in well below a million bucks.

The one town you mention, Lancaster, PA, is a model of the type.
I mean whether you clump them or not they're still time taken out of a very short period. I wouldn't (and haven't) minded so much with longer sprints, but 2 weeks minus planning/retro minus "one person takes a Friday off and another person is out one of the weeks" always leaves me feeling cramped.

I think the best structure I ever had was 3wk "actual work" sprints and 1wk to address tech-debt and do planning.

Sorry…I don’t buy into the “if everyone would just do this…the earth will be a utopia” fantasies.

If everyone suddenly became vegan overnight, solved every climate issue, eliminated (fill in whatever other blank you think is important enough to foist your morality on the rest of us)…there would still be billions of people suffering from illness, poverty, displacement, and death. Those four things are not because of meat eating, fossil fuels, or (fill in the blank), its because it is human nature and dumb luck for some to have success and others to not have success. There is no such thing as equity when 7B people are competing for limited resources.

We are not masters of our domain, we are semi-successful species that over the lifespan of this earth are going to last about as long as the stink from a gnat fart in a hurricane.

And during that tiny amount of time that I occupy that gnat fart, I’m going to eat meat and enjoy every bite.

Important points-

ETH moving to POS so miners will find blockchain that does POW(berylbit) and they will buy and mine berylbit with there rigs

We have launched our blockchain, our ecosystem is done we have ducky-swap dex and our first memecoin ppl are trading on the network right now!

WE need to start targeting famous crypto ppl like Sam ceo of FTX and CZ owner of bsc so berylbit can be famous and bought by the rich

We need to start building a bigger community for the blockchain so we can be the next ETH

We have to make POW survive it is what crypto is about

Bridge will be out soon we just have a token that you may purchase and bridge later

This article is depressing. We’re making pliers and screwdrivers and that’s supposed to be worth celebrating? I’ll celebrate when we have automated factories that mean we don’t have to pay 10x wages compared to third world countries and we can actually compete by making all the real things like power tools at Milwaukee in this case.
Surely John Deere are releasing source code to farmers and giving them the build instructions and install instructions needed to update the code on the tractors? /s

I concur, and I'll add that QR codes are mostly useful when you need to quickly transfer a string of data from the analog to the digital world, while also ensuring some data integrity during interpretation.

I can see those complement some human-readable text to minimize manual data input (and the inevitable typo) where required.
Just pick any mid sized US city and pick a suburb that has a Main Street type of area and it’s not in high COL area. I would look for ones with fiber internet available. The houses should not be anywhere near $1m when you do this. Avoid high tax states like CA or NY.

I imagine you have other factors like distance from family, area of the country, weather, proximity to mountains/beach/parks/major metro for things to do, etc. so those should narrow down what states. Then go on a mini vacation and explore or work remotely from where you’re exploring.
Anecdotal, but as soon as someone starts giving me directions my brain taps out of the responsibility. I have great spatial awareness, and a decent memory for spatial landmarks. But even if you are giving me directions to somewhere I always go, I will miss turns I know to take because I have subconciously disengaged from the task of pathfinding.

I am reminded of the pilot control handover procedure, where you exchange control explicitly by saying "Your airplane", "my airplane". If you were giving me directions and then assume I have got the rest if the way, you have hand the task back over!
Fusion uses 6Li, which is only a minor fraction of natural lithium. The 7Li (93% of the element) can be used in batteries just fine.

At one point back in the 1960s some physicists were trying to make a neutron detector using lithium, and it wouldn't work. They eventually discovered the lithium they had purchased from a chemical supply company was nearly pure 7Li. It had been sold back into the chemical market from the waste stream of the government's lithium enrichment facility.

I just heard of a way to back up your Gmail. I have not tried it but by forwarding your email to yahoo from your Gmail you can keep your emails in two places. I don't know how this will work for your old email but going forward it keeps you from being dependent on just Gmail.

I don't know how to guard from having you Gmail account suddenly closed by Google. Many places require an active email to change it from one to another. What happens when your active account suddenly gets closed?

We’re on an international board with people doing vastly different things.

I do a lot of casual hiking, and can see places that have basically no affordance and no permanent paths for kilometers. I would be completely lost without GPS giving me my current position, and can’t see what I would use to derive that just from a map and a compass. People doing it the old fashion way probably keep track of the sun position as they walk and somewhat have a sense of the distance they moved, but that’s way beyond “just use a map and a compass” territory.

Then a lot of people hike in the mountains with named paths and a clear view of the other peaks, which makes it a lot more trivial than other situations, for instance.

My Quad 22 died in a flood. I mourn it, but in truth the wax potting had destroyed the wiring years ago. Rebuilds are "my grandfathers axe" and replace everything except your rusty Quad nameplate and the chassis. Re-making transformers is labour intense and KT-66 are very expensive.

I have a Sony discrete component bookshelf amp with slider volumes for L and R which I love, but it has never quite been the same since a cat we were house-sitting pee'd on it in the 80s. Some things don't mix with electricity. I had one power transistor replaced after that, but the volume L/R got out of whack. Now, it blows the safety fuse when I power it on, and I suspect it needs work, which may well head to "my grandfathers axe" in discrete componentry again.

Microsoft had a machine printing billions of dollars but their environment was quite different.

I was in IE team on dev tools. We shipped every 6 months, while chrome shipped every month. In the last 2 months of 6 months release, we had feature code freeze. Even small bug fixes weren’t allowed. First month was planning. Our dev pace was slower than Chrome. Chrome shipped a lot more in 6 months than IE did.

Chrome had an insane testing suite that tested pixel perfect rendering and Perf benchmarks. Doing this on every pull request is just amazing.

IE had some work to do. I was surprised to learn that the E2E test results were hosted on some engineer’s dev machine in his office. We used to run tests on our machine before committing to source depot. IE CI/CD had a lot to desire.

My takeaway from IE vs Chrome was that Chrome had good leadership, they highly invested in all kinds of tooking to encode their security, UX, performance bars.

IE leadership was sometimes far away from the user experience. They didn’t care about the little big things.

Long overdue. Those who are most offended by a light being shed on this practice are often those who have benefited from it the most.

For many (the 98% who are not the correct caste), caste is a sin that they cannot be freed of.
