Ah, yes, I think you're right. It was Flossbank. Thanks!

No, I'm not sure an LLC would prevent me from using it, but I'd probably choose to go with a competing org given the choice. Siphoning off profit over and above operating expenses from a sector that's already woefully underfunded is not a great look.

I'll be watching with interest though, and will take a closer look when you support Scala+sbt dependencies, repos outside GitHub, and drop the need to grant your bot access to my private repos.

What I don't get is why so many open source projects choose to use a closed source walled garden as their primary means of communication, it seems entirely counterethical to OSS.

I am as well. I started out my own journey convinced that we should keep our existing high-efficiency gas furnaces for backup heat, but when we finally did the math, it would have saved us a whopping $3 over the last twelve months vs. using electric resistive backup, and that was using last year's cheaper gas prices...

In the US, if you need backup heating (and you may not, with the heat pumps that are on the. market today), electric resistive heating (heat strips/coils) is indeed more expensive than high-efficiency gas furnaces BTU-for-BTU, but remember that resistive heating runs in parallel with the heat pumps, whereas furnaces have to take over entirely for dual fuel systems. Natural gas might be cheaper than electric resistance alone, but electric resistance plus the heat pump even at diminished capacity can be a very different story.
I will neither confirm nor deny that. I think anyone who reads that description can think of at least one person :D
The solution on the level of markets is pretty simple. San Francisco builds enough units to meet demand. That would involve approving building projects that are very high-density per acre regardless of ostensible affordability.

Of course, neither home owners nor developers want this - home owners want to preserve their home values and developers want to build a few luxury condos - both aiming to profit from the housing shortage rather than solving it. The solution is actual public housing on a large scale but naturally the safe forces would work to slander and hold this approach back.
Very cool to see this project gaining traction. The intersection of Real World Assets and Web3 opens the door for some really cool ideas around NFT marketplaces, DeFi liquidity, and warehousing.
Apple’s done extremely well by timing it perfectly, not by being too early. Never mind early or spot on, it’s been pretty late for a lot of stuff, compared to Android.

I still remember my only windows phone. Horrible thing. Had a Start menu and a stylus FFS.
This is one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time. I can't believe the time I've wasted looking at all the old rail lines and where they go from the places I've lived.

Many thanks to the team
I honestly question the value added by these execs. The other day, you and I discussed some of the expensive C-Suite disasters Wikimedia has bought. They actually set Wikimedia back by years. Dozens of valuable, experienced staff left.

And Wikipedia became a top-10 website in 2007, when there was no C-Suite. There seems to be little awareness these days that the main value of the site to the public was and is built and maintained by unpaid volunteers.
Yes, you only need that many samples given you know a maximum frequency. But to actually perform the conversion from discrete samples to continuous wave takes infinitely many steps. The number a given DAC actually does varies. Some do hundreds, some thousands, a couple rare (very expensive) ones do 100k or more.

That's what I'm saying. Increase the number of samples in the audio itself, and the DAC can get closer to the original.
>which will make rents higher, which will create more poverty.

At some point though don't rents become high enough it's almost a 'luxury' to live there? What proportion of people paying say $15k/month in rent are in poverty?

If the tyranny of the majority decide they want SF to be an ultra-rich enclave I'm trying to imagine how that can even be stopped, regardless. There's no constitutional right to free-market housing. IMO the 51% of best situated home/property owners will always have the incentive to impose their tyranny on others, and if they flush out the 49% due to elevated cost and repeat this iteratively you end up with an ever-concentrated hyper-wealthy enclave. That kind of self-reinforcing loop appears to be what SF is getting locked into.
I wonder what these strings are. Some sort of an ID? Or maybe to make these tweets sufficiently different from each other to avoid triggering spam detection?

I feel this is the same problem as an online community faces: the density of talent gets diluted over time as the community grows larger. When you only 1000 members in Quora, you get detailed and nuanced answers that open your eyes and expand your mind. When you have 100M users in quora, most of the answers are meh. Similarly, when a company grows rapidly with only few hundreds of people, you get amazing talent as described in the book Show Stopper.

I'm glad he gets the creative expression but he keeps shilling raycons and mediocre VPNs. I get he has to get paid but I wish there was anyone who had the advertising money to spend on sponsorships but wasn't garbage, but I guess having that level of advertising spend kind of precludes you from spending it on product development or high quality components
It is extremely hard to justify 32-bit audio from a technical standpoint, since it requires that every component in your audio chain has better than 144 dB dynamic range. In practice, just about none of the analog components in your audio chain will have that kind of dynamic range, and any analog components in the recording chain are unlikely to have that range either.

The kind of equipment I'd expect to see in order to record that kind of range is where you'd have something like multiple microphones, and switch back and forth between them based on the level of the material you're recording (which would have to be something like actual gunfire or explosions).

I don't know what kind of equipment you'd need to reproduce this dynamic range, but I don't think it's audio equipment.

My guess is that the main real application of this is going to be compression of non-audio data that happens to compress well with FLAC.

I'm an anti-capitalist, so that's just how it goes :)
I believe democracy is a pretty good way of doing things. It's a pretty mainstream boring opinion to think democracy is good. I just want to see democracy applied to workplace.

To be clear, I'm not saying we should just copy what we do in civil governments over to corporations. The United States' government at all levels is pretty anemic in being democratic, imo, and not a model to be envied. But there are other models for groups of people to collectively work together where they share decision making power and share in the fruits of their labor. There's stuff like worker-owner cooperatives, sociocracy, and open source software, for example. These different models for building things exist despite being within a capitalist society. I believe that under a different economic model, or even just powerful policy changes, people could be empowered in other ways to work together to create things for society.

And looking at your other post, it's true, I don't think Apple could exist as it does today in any society besides a capitalist society. That's not so bad, though, is it?

(2016), according to the comment in the source
Why would landlords in the market with the highest demand prioritize fending off competition? The answer is they wouldn’t. You’re full of it.

Landlords want to maximize profit from their property and when demand is soaring above supply, adding units is the way to do that so they are organizing to overturn laws that prevent them from doing so.

There is a reason the tickets to this event cost $100+. This isn’t a working class movement lol.

You are either stupid yourself or you’ve got a lot of nerve to act like others are, which is to say you certainly act like a landlord.
Without this type of analysis, the entire discussion is based on the current price and nothing else. Therefore if the price was up significantly we would have to conclude he was a genius. For now, we can conclude that he is not. However, if we are being intellectually honest, our opinion needs to be a function of the current price.
Thank you so much! It was a truly great learning experience, and definitely more to go.

I have a carefully curated list of people I follow and who follow me.

I get a lot of value from one-on-one communication with tech expert, artists, authors, and musicians.

It takes some work to keep the lists clean, and you have to access Twitter via a 3rd party app like Echofon to avoid all the ads and crap the company throws into your timeline, but it's definitely worth it to me.
Cool, maybe one day they'll post a phone number or an email you can reach them on.
That said, I actually came to the comments to wonder just how much total effort would have gone into this from proposal, through approval and sign-offs by multiple technical and non-technical teams, before finally getting through to production.

Who's to say it's not an internal training exercise? Someone(s) is learning to heard the kittens on a low-stakes project, someone else is learning to get the right sign-offs from the right teams/people, and the new test manager can spin her team up on this little project while they try the new workflow. And the intern gets to see their CSS tricks go into production to amuse millions.

The high salaries is concertrated in very small part of the state. It is also purely accidental and due to historical reasons. On median basis, the state is among the poorest in the nation.

16 bit is not enough?
Except it's not. The video shows that. In the real world, the DAC doesn't immediately jump from code N to N+1; it slides (the "slew rate" of the opamp). More bits just makes the difference between codes N and N+1 smaller; i.e. where it slides to is more accurate to the original. The "stair step" or "straight line" view you get from programs like Audacity is a lie.

Even better, every font renderer does! A couple of the PDF-based jailbreaks for iOS were actually bugs in the virtual machine used by font renderer to allow fonts to do programmatic hinting, and the PDF only really existed as a container to deploy the font and force it to deterministically render exactly what was required.
I'd say it's still a tricky comparison because the WMF is (reductively) a tech company, and tech sector salaries remain pretty high. For a lot of roles they need to fill, they're competing with other tech companies for those employees, not just other nonprofits. A salary that's fantastic by average-nonprofit standards might be vastly underpaying someone who's deciding between a job at the WMF or Google.
It's clearly better when instead of bankster elites we would be controlled by some shady scammers sitting in the non-extradition offshore. Truly a revolution in finance.

That seems like a contradiction. If it were clearly wrong, most people would notice. The fact that they don't surely implies that it isn't very clear.

why?
What was the difference?
Ok so what you are saying is that the particles are pushed into the arterial walls which builds plaque. At some point some of that plaque breaks off and causes a blockage --> heart attack / TIA / Stroke.

Agree biggest concern is what is causing damage to the arterial walls. To be fair --> fat + cholesterol attach to the wall in order to repair the arterial wall so, fat does attach to the wall.

I'm guessing the scar tissue cell matter attaches to the cholesterol+fat which is trying to repair the wall.
Again, you are justifying an action by the reaction to it.
It is not my responsibility to make sure a company is profitable. If COSTCO willingly gives me enough free samples to feed my entire family, it is not my responsibility to then buy a bunch of COSTCO products to pay them back.

Because without plasticizer additives, most plastics get brittle and crack after a while. The raw plastic is stiffer, less flexible, and slightly porous unless a buttery filler is added, but it can slowly ooze out and get sticky. Armor All and silicone are a similar aftermarket replacement that soaks in and acts similar to the original plasticizer.

There are actual studies showing 95-99% of us have subconscious racist biases.
And so what which races they favour? I'd call it a massive fail for any "anti-racist lens" if, say, only whites were fired.
(You also mention "men" - subconscious sexist biases are just as universal. For highly skilled roles unfortunately they very much typically favour men.)
Most of the world runs on literally free and open software, so what is your point again?
I mean, I think he did originally _also_ want to get something built.
But your point is exactly why I think the obstacles to building in SF are better illustrated with a project that was just trying to get something built.

We can have separate opinions about whether Tillman's efforts were good versus whether he's a good illustrative example the obstacles in the system.
So who are these people? The politicians are absolutely landlord-adjacent (i.e. NIMBY adjacent) if not landlords themselves, but who are the others? Just some desperate wage earners eager to dispose of their latest $100+ of income on this cheesy fundraiser? Give me a break!

That's strangely accurate. I didn't like that "edgy dark" humor for the most part (every Squee and Zim fan I ever knew was a total dickhead), but Zim in particular was kind of a weird and endearing look at humanity.
And how many people have or will have handsets in the near future? If it is 3 billion people and we can reduce the power consumption by 25%, it would be a lot. Reduction in data center usage of power is the other part. $5 a year of electricity per phone sounds low, but maybe you can share where you got that number?

True, and there should be a way for people to get verified and use their professional / public persona names as Verified Identities.

They just don't get to change the name or image on the account without going through a manually verified update process. Pretty trivial, a singer goes on a new tour and wants to use a new headshot, checks out faster than reading this paragraph. A cracker hijacks the account and wants to change it to Vitalik Buterin, also pretty obvious to deny, as this is clearly a different identity inconsistent with the previous one.
I had my “first Joel review” while applying to work at Stack.
Joel still did the final interviews for all applicants back then.
After 4-5 back to back on site interviews, I was spent. Somehow we ended up talking about old AutoIT scripts I’d written - many of which include apologies to future readers in the comments.

Joel was a great interviewer… that conversation turned into a game as Joel picked apart various ways he over compromise the script and asked how I’d respond in the next iteration.

> the discussion that happens on Discord is a lot different than anything on, say, HN or Reddit, and certainly Facebook or LinkedIn.

but plenty of it isn't, the growth of larger discord guilds necessarily changes that. discord has led to a net-loss for information sharing within the fighting game community, for example. join a half-dozen guilds, one for each game, your local group (and the local Smash scene doesn't hang out on the same guild as the anime fighters, etc etc), etc, and there's no way to search for questions across them, so everyone joins and has to interact with some bot to address FAQs or annoy the "regulars" or get shuffled off to some other chat room with its own anti-spam verification bot and its own document index and its own culture. you have to hope that folks have pinned messages to google docs you can still access with information about character matchups, frame data, etc ... and figuring out which/who to connect with to learn a new game is basically difficult to solve in this decentralized fashion after years of forums and wikis like shoryuken disappearing to be replaced with adhoc un-indexed chat rooms and google docs.
My argument on this point is detailed in a response to a sibling comment, but the TL;DR: is that they are favored by the Supreme Court, which is actively judging on the protections afforded by the privacy clauses by the constitution to people who are non-heterosexual, non-white, and not-men.
