Obviously not everyone wants to learn to code. I dont think anyone mistakenly believes that.The (possibly overused) advice to learn to code is prevalent because software is prevalent

Ill repeat what ive said elsewhere...It is a legit path to a rewarding job which is open to those without degrees and who might have felonies on record.

Since starting Underdog Devs Ive seen it over and over. With real commitment its very attainable. We have many success stories which seem like outliers, however they consistently happen.

This isn't something Ive read, its something we've done over and over with mentees. I get that youre tired of that trite bit of advice, but its happening for a lot of people. There are a lot of people who have had their entires life changed through that skill. Definitely not the solution for everyone, but it is the solution for some.

I'm actually asking in good faith because I can't recall any "to white" race swapping in the past few years.

> Unions may or may not have bankrupted companies, but did they ever engage in the same level of violence, physical intimidation, or criminal behavior as these union busting alliances?

I like unions, but... yes? Pretending that they haven't is ridiculous. There's a reason that people are complaining that police officers can act (nearly) as horrible/brutal as they want to and fact (close to) no consequences. That reason is their union. There's also video of union members physically and mentally attacking people for crossing picket lines, etc.

When people get power, the bad eggs start causing problems for everyone else. And they also tend to gain power, so wind up making decisions for "the organization". This is true of both companies _and_ unions.
Developers have bills to pay and the return to timesharing days seems to be only way to force people to actually pay for the work of others, just like in every other profession.

There does not need to be a set of constraints for optimisation to be defined. You can talk about optimisation on an unconstrained domain, for example all of ℝ⨯ℝ. But there DOES need to be a measure function that measures what you are optimising for. The benefit of fraud would be one such function you could optimise for, and that seems to be what GP is after. The pure amount of fraud is a different one, which seems to be what you are interested in.
Sigh - EPIC FAIL!!

This method consumes both the aluminum and the gallium.

OK but first consider how much energy is required to create aluminum. And to create gallium.

Hint: it's FAR more than electrolysis which is far more than hydrogen from natural gas.

Aluminum is electrolytically refined at high heated temperature. It's so energy intensive that most aluminum refineries are co-located next to hydroelectric plants. Gallium primarily comes from NEW aluminum extraction from ore and none comes from recycling aluminum - the former takes 2x more energy than the latter.

Just an order-of-magnitude, back-of-the-envelope estimate easily shows you can NOT generate energy for a hydrogen economy this way under any circumstances.

Think about what you just wrote. Poland cranked up the coal before the war, ensuring consistent energy availability long term. Meanwhile, its neighbors were shutting down nuclear and increasing dependence on unreliable alternative energy sources.

The literature on the evolution of cooperation, focused around computational thought experiments with iterated prisoner's dilemma, seems relevant here, e.g.,

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

If you allow a population of individuals repeatedly playing prisoner's dilemma against each other to evolve their own strategies, you end up with a large percentage of the population cooperating with each other by default, but punishing cheaters after they are observed cheating. But a small percentage of cheaters will always persist, because as the number of cheaters goes down, the number of naive cooperators will go up, thus making it more advantageous to cheat.

In evolutionary jargon, cheating behavior undergoes "negative frequency-dependent selection". And you end up with a low, but nonzero, equilibrium frequency of cheaters.

This outcome here depends on the order of rewards/costs: the best outcome comes from cheating on a cooperator; next best is cooperating with a cooperator; then cooperating with a cheater; and worst is two cheaters cheating on each other.

It's a caricature, but the evolutionary dynamics seem to map pretty well to the kind of examples people are bringing up here in the comments.

(The actual "prisoner's dilemma" is rather a confusing story to use, because it's about criminals trying to decide whether to cooperate with each other or betray each other to avoid jail time. So you end up talking about the evolution of cooperation among a population of criminals.)
On a pure, simplistic, naive, reading of expected value it is the “rational” choice because $25 million is more than $1 million.

The author’s point is that the simplistic understanding of expected value isn’t always wise.

The audience is economists who use the economic equivalent of perfectly spherical cows and then wonder why their model isn’t all that good.

In reality it's bad because Sweden has no minimum wage and unionizing is voluntary. It's full anarchy in the 3PL sector and impossible for unions to use traditional conflict actions forcing companies to sign collective agreements.

If vanwatech (8kun's owner company, I think) can make their own hosting and resiliency platform with a box of scraps after being dumped by cloudflare, I'm sure Kiwifarms can do the same. I actually felt Kiwifarms is long overdue for getting a light shined on it, but I'm not going to pretend that booting it off Cloudflare is going to solve anything. It seems to me that Cloudflare is providing them a common, readily available service that can and has been done in-house, so I don't get the goal here. You won't boot them off the internet by chasing them from every provider, because they'll find one who doesn't care, or do it themselves. Given it's an unremarkable service, providers should therefore take their money, or, better yet, screw them on price and charge them extra for the hassle of being a risky customer.

As an aside, I am annoyed that Kiwifarms has quietly existed all this time and this is the best effort that people can come up with to try and affect it, and this late. It honestly should have been shut down a long time ago. Unlike _chans, reddit, somethingawful, etc, I'm not sure even a single good thing has come out of that place.
EV is such a nonsense measure anyway once you step outside the realm of pure theory.

For example, the EV in this example (50% chance of $50m, or $0) is $25m. The EV of a 2.5% chance of $1 billion is also $25m, but your probability of getting nothing is 20 times higher. Is it more rational to choose this over the certainty of $1m? I don't think so. Is it rational to chose a 0.0025% chance of $1 trillion over $1m? At that point I think even the most avowedly rational economist would choose the cash.

I thought it was interesting from a linguistic perspective. These events are 3000-6000 years earlier than those of the Lord of the Rings. The languages would have changed in all that time.

A problem that I've come to notice with a lot of tech people is they either don't notice or don't value good implementation, even if that implementation is leagues ahead of everything else. It's important to develop taste and be able to look beyond feature lists.

It doesn't matter that the LG Prada had a capacitive touchscreen or that the Nokia N95 had a web browser: the iPhone had a smooth, vibrant and responsive multi-touch operating system with natural scrolling and a surprisingly good touch keyboard.

On the LG Prada you're poking at list items and dragging scrollbars while the device beeps at you and choppily redraws those lists like a terminal.

On the Nokia N95, you're navigating the web with a jumpy cursor controlled by directional buttons, and typing with a numpad.

There was nothing like the iPhone, and now everything is like the iPhone.
A TV series set around the journey of policemen in Nigeria or like "Northern Exposure in Abuja" could be incredible.
Generally, yes. Detauls a bit more complex so. There are industry specific unions for employees, e.g. IG Metall for everything electronics and hardware or Verdi for public services (covering a staggering amount of jobs). On the othet side of the table you have associations of employers for the same industries. This makes, overall, negotiations straight forward, unions negotiate with employer associations and the results are then adopted, with regional modifications, acroos Germany. Of course employers are free to quit thosr associations, there are also dedicated agreements betweens unions and specific employers, usually covering things like extended working hours and so.

And we have specialized unions, e.g. Cockpit for pilots or the equivalant for train conductors. The latter is funny, because there is more than one union representing those at DB.

On a more general note, all employees benefit from the conditions negotiated between employers and unions (if there are any that is), regardless of union memebership. Legally, unions obly negotiate for members, technically rmployers don't make a difference. All that of course up to a certain salary sealing, everything above is outside union territory.
> The fact that for amazon getting rid of unions is a priority, suggests that unions are effective

Well, it suggests that unions are effective at creating negative consequences for the company. Those consequences could be "more costly to do business because the employees are paid more"; in theory, a good outcome. They could also be "more costly to do business because it's not against the rules for someone to plug in the monitor in their office because all electronics must be handled by a certified union member" (which actually happens); in theory, a bad outcome.

Not all "bad for the company" things are "good for the employees".
No other western country has suspended its own constitutional rights over a protest that was non violent and led to 0 deaths. No matter how you spin it, and how much you dislike the protesters that still makes it an unprecedented move.

But it is amusing to see how some people here in canada are totally ok with that, and still manage to blame the US or whatever for pointing out that the federal government did exactly what it did. Demanding that the government steps down is legal, and is normal for a protest. We had it happen in quebec in 2012 during the student protests, but no one was calling that an overthrow attempt. And if the bar for basically stripping the citizenry of rights is "disruptive protests", then we don't have protest rights. Even the most reactionary right wingers in America weren't calling for suspending their constitution after the 2020 protests.

(And the discussion has nothing to do with popular support, no one was claiming they were supported by the majority. It's not even relevant, why would that matter when the problem was the insanely dangerous step of suspending charter rights. Trying to make it about something else is a red herring.)

You can't really bring a game console to the table as an argument for Linux popularity on the PC. That way BSD would be even more popular because it's shipped on every Play Station. Or whatever OS Nintendo uses on the Switch.

Sure, the Linux kernel is on almost any smart device in the world making it the most popular, but in the PC/laptop space, its market share is still absolutely tiny (<3%).

It's an interesting question (assuming you know the number of times you get to play up front).

In reality, with these numbers, the best strategy for most people who aren't already very wealthy would probably be to get a sure-fire nest egg and then play the odds.

If you have to play the same every time, I'm not sure. Again, with these numbers, the utility function is looking pretty flat after $20 million for the vast majority of people. And "almost certain" != certain.

“Wrong” by what standard? Hydrogen has the highest specific impulse but I’d much harder to work with. We have no better propellant.

A lot of other launch vehicles use RP-1, which is basically just kerosene. Lower specific impulse so lower payload capacity but it doesn’t need to be cryogenically stored and cooled with everything that entails.

That’s a fine choice for single use rockets but when you get into reusable rockets you now have a new problem: RP-1 burns and leaves a lot of carbon behind. This is costly and slow to clean.

For this reason SpaceX’s next rocket uses methane. Like hydrogen or must be cooled but not as much. Still it’s more complex engineering.

Artemis to me seems too expensive but it will be the most powerful launch vehicle ever created with the highest payload capacity.

So how is it wrong?
And it is not like oil goes bad when it is in ground. Much better to make more money on the cheap to extract stuff and then later some money with more costly to extract oil. Also there is consideration what to use the extra money now. If there really isn't need for it, why even get it.
As philosophical questions I think it's important to answer:

1. What is the optimal rate of property value growth and why?

2. What is the optimal cost of housing (a multiple of yearly income?) and why?

3. Are people who own property incentivized to keep supply low?

It's a growing trope that "housing can be either affordable or an investment but not both." I think I agree, but everyone has to see that their growing property value is selfish and that it directly harms their children before anything can be done about it. Georgism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgism) gets thrown around a lot, but I haven't wrapped my head around it yet.

Is this related to the self-awareness Twitter meme? Amtrak tweeted "trains," Department of Energy tweeted "energy," and so on. The official Twitter account of Ukraine tweeted "victory" yesterday, might this be a play on the meme to show Defense Intelligence of Ukraine is all about ciphers?
Most epidemiologists that I remember were discouraging all gatherings. Some CNN talking heads, said that protesting for your right not to be discriminated against by police, is more important than not gathering, which is more important than entertainment events. Given they were liberal, that is not in any way surprising.

CNN/mainstream media have so many people on that say different things and get re-reported by other stations. Plenty of people on TV at the time were discouraging protests. I think you just remember what made you feel angry.
> Italy isn’t exactly far from Africa

1400 years before Pinocchio times

> Othello was based on an Italian story

In Venice, set 400 years before Pinocchio.

Where Pinocchio lived and where Collodi set the story there were no black people in ~1850s

Not that some black person couldn't be found in Florence, but Pinocchio is set in a small village where people knew each other and didn't travel far from home.

People mostly lived a self segregated life.

There's a reason why there aren't many popular Italian books of the time including black people, they were not a numerous presence.

I Promessi Sposi (The Betrothed from Manzoni) it's probably the most popular Italian novel ever, it was written around the same time of Pinocchio and is set in Milan in 1630s during the plague and the Spanish rule.

There isn't a single black person mentioned in the ~600 pages that make the book.

Vulcans (and the related Romulans) on Star Trek were always very light-skinned; in the original series and TNG they always appeared with white make-up. Then Voyager had Tuvok (who is black) and no one seemed to mind of complained at the time as far as I can recall. I certainly didn't really take notice of it until today when I started thinking about this entire thing.

Star Trek: Voyager first aired in 1995, so it's been a while. I can't really come up with any meaningful differences between the two cases.

Certainly my reading of "Tolkien's Elves" has always been that they're a very light-skinned (dwarves are more ambiguous). I don't overly care if Elves are black- or white-skinned, just as I don't really care about the skin colour of Vulcans in Star Trek.

Yet at the same time, it somehow feels a bit different. I'm having a hard time to articulate why, but I think a big part of the reason is that it feels more forced with all the rhetoric of the last decade or so where everything and everyone is part of "white supremacist culture" and whatnot over what seem extremely minor issues to me.

Tim Russ was hired to play Tuvok presumably because his audition went well in a kind of "colourblind" hiring that is now, apparently, racist (I have a lot of criticisms of Voyager as a series, but Tim Russ' portrayal of Tuvok is not one of them).

I think what people resent isn't the fact that there are black elves, it's the forcing of it, and that everything is scrutinized at a microscopic level for alleged "racism" (e.g. [1]), and that not going out of your way to be "anti-racist" is racist in itself (as if lots of people don't already have enough problems on their own). I suspect that if the LotR movies had black elves – 20 years ago and in a different time – few people would have raised a ruckus over it.

Fights like this are like argueing over the dishes as a couple: it's not really about the dishes; it's a silly outlet of general dissatisfaction.

Bavovna means cotton, which in Russian is spelled хлопок, which is a word that means both cotton and clap (or a loud clap), depending on which syllable you accent the word on.

It is a play on current "New Russian" language that is part of the russian propaganda that calls explosions "claps", collapse "negative growth" and so on.
