Sending in resumes via online applications is a somewhat pointless exercise. Any number of IT systems or HR personal will filter out good candidates. You need to find a way to contact recruiters directly.

I've got a story that illustrates this well. I'm older than you and a few years ago I submitted an online application for a job (at a large company) that was a great fit. I didn't hear anything for a month so I found a recruiter on LinkedIn. They referred me to the recruiter responsible for that position. They said they had never seen my resume in their system but she'd forward it to the hiring manager (my future manager). I got the job and became the hiring manager for other positions. Very few good resumes were sent to me from our HR system so I started checking. Turns out the HR IT system was filtering out good candidates and the HR person was filtering out a bunch of good candidates that made it past the HR applicant tracking system. There are so many applications for every position that good people just get caught in the programmatic and human filters to screen out people who aren't a fit for the job.

Use LinkedIn to find the recruiter or find your connections who work that that company. Get your resume into the hiring manager's hands.

For a large company, they also have pretty shady pricing. Like their “annual plan, paid monthly”. You’d think you’re just paying for the monthly subscription, but they hide the fact that you have to pay a penalty for early cancellation in the fine print.

Dishonest, expensive, slow.
The people paying a fee are not investors. This is like saying the grocery store is a ponzi because customers pay the shop owner, who was an early investor.

The people paying a fee do not expect to make a profit off of holding ethereum. (Some of them do, but that's a coincidence in the same way that a shop owner might shop at their own store).

It's hard to find a successful pyramid scheme or bubble that I'm not upset I wasn't on the ground floor of. I'm also upset that I didn't win the lottery. It doesn't mean that I secretly think pyramid schemes, lotteries, and beanie babies are good, and that I'm naysaying them because I didn't get a piece. I would naysay them 10x as much if they had made me rich. I'd be rich and an authoritative source, who's going to stop me from talking shit about the things I dislike?

I get your point, but I think it's a convenient one. I, personally, wouldn't be comfortable working at a company that is actively promoting a politician I fundamentally disagree with, and being told I can't say anything because that's "politics".
I think it's important to understand that L2 is considered the future of Ethereum. So when we are talking about fees it's important to use the numbers that people will actually be paying in the future. Right now those are hovering around $0.10 and it's expected that danksharding will reduce those by a couple orders of magnitude in the near/mid term future.

IMO L2's are fundamentally better than Venmo and Square Cash. Firstly, they are much more transparent to the user. Switching to a different L2 is usually as simple as selecting an option from a dropdown in your wallet app. There are also protocols for allowing users to buy crypto straight on L2 without paying L1 fees and transferring from one L2 to another (for a small fee). Additionally, if an L2 goes down there are escape hatches that allow users to pull money out onto L1. The same cannot be said for Venmo or Square. This transparency also means users are less tied to a single provider. If I want to accept money on Venmo I have to sign up for a whole new app, vs selecting an L2 from a dropdown like I mentioned before.

Regarding credit scores and privacy, there is strong reason to believe that zero-knowledge proofs will be very useful here. These are much more cutting edge but zk-proofs allow people to prove things about themselves without giving away their private info. This could allow a privacy-respecting credit score where users can prove certain things about their financial history without giving everything away.

I will admit privacy is still very much a concern. The recent controversy over Tornado Cash proves that governments are not comfortable with total privacy. However, I will say that this isn't the first time the government has tried to stop cryptography. Originally, there were legal battles over public-key encryption when it was first invented but now we use it every day.
At least according to podcasts, that is done for kids that appear on track to be short.

It seems like the people in my SES/field of work trend substantially taller, especially the younger cohort. I’m 1/4” shy of 6’ so it seems strange, but I always assumed it was due to better nutrition. I think a few years less of the pasta-based food pyramid would have made a difference. Or maybe they’re all just getting hormones.

P.S. if it is ok to give trans kids hormones for gender dysphoria, I don’t see any issues with giving cis kids hormones for dealing with height dysphoria. At least the consequences of HGH are less severe and better understood.

Also, this kind of long form investigative journalism is what has died out in most newsrooms in an effort to reduce costs.

That’s not true. There is operational expenditure, like electricity cost, internet data, hardware that holds the client softwares, etc.

It’s just that the depreciation is slower, and less expensive over time than GPUs or ASICs.

Maybe this isn’t the case with some of the other DPoS chains out there, where people can delegate their stake to validators, making it unnecessary to run any hardware.

Mortgage interest deduction is only available for people who itemize, i.e. people who owe more federal income tax than the standard deduction.

> I'd be surprised if english was the best tool for every task

Certainly not - language models (including multi-lingual models) map words to some kind of (300ish?) multi-dimensional concept space. I wonder if we can translate that back to some sort of symbolic representation that is much more precise than human language. Some kind of IR where we could compile human into representing but also program against. I suspect the early prolog people were attempting something like this but were very wrong about framing reasoning as logical deduction rather than a stochastic process.

> Considering that markets exist whenever 2 or more individuals gather

In the most general sense of "market", this is not wrong. However, you're talking from the point of view of a rather specific market theory. That market theory is not a fundamental force, it's just one of many ways of doing things.

It also has a very narrow definition of "fair", which makes sense within its own world, but I would argue is not generalizable outside of that world.
Please focus on one thing at a time. I think you're starting to come around to the idea that maybe Wikipedia has an appropriate amount of funding and is spending an appropriate amount of money?

You can just keep moving the goal posts every time you get proven wrong.

That's one of the coolest things that's happened in a long time. Being "pretty well served by public transport" and uninterested in that improvement is self-absorbed.

Going on about how it's useless in a public forum? Yes. That's the inflection point and Adams pointed it out because it's narcissistic and sad. If you can't empathize enough to care about all the people self-driving will help, who aren't you, then you've lost something.
Sure, some old cities in Europe look great, but a lot of what was rebuilt after WWII looks like shit.

NYC is actually a really pleasant place to live in a lot of respects, and I've lived in several other places. The real problem here is that housing is so expensive. You could drop a bunch of 8-10 story buildings on corners near trains here and you wouldn't really even notice at street level but it would add a lot of housing.
The people who were mining ETH didn't give a toss about the environment. They invested in PoW hardware and they're not going to stop using it because ETH is now PoS, they'll just mine something else.

I just hope the PoW markets collapse now ETH is moving on.
Child safety and cars sure is related - and history buffs will be glad to know the “kindermoord” of automobiles was what got the Netherlands to change from car-centric cities with many lanes wide traffic jams, to the best city infrastructure in the world

Cars produce crazy noise pollution, and car lifestyle requires massive subsidies such as street parking, and a huge share of city real estate being used for parking and roads.

Why would they mine it at a loss relative to the market when they could just buy it at whatever the current market price is, if they think it's going to go up in the future?
The "element picker" feature of uBlock Origin makes it generally easy to manually remove these sort of annoyances too.

I won't argue that it can be used that way, and for "only" text, yeah, there are open alternatives that achieve most of what Discord can do.

My point is that it is reductive to say "Discord is just IRC with some addons" when those addons are critical to its success. If Mumble had video-conference and screen sharing, it'd be pretty easy to convince my friends to use Mumble. Other than the network effect of Discord being the entry point to multiple servers/friend groups, and Discord makes spinning up your own server trivial.

So again, it does more than "just" improve on text chat.

One time, I found a scatter plot of male and female heights in pairings, and there was a pretty clear drop-off at x=y. If you're really interested, that's the data source you'd want to have.

Of course, it wouldn't solve the causal question. Are women rejecting men who are shorter, or are men mentally gear-shifting around people who are taller than them? The latter might sound insulting, but that's actually what you'd want it to be, because then you could overcome it with a really good attitude. If all of the grown up monkeys going around in this world are programmed to let the big monkey do the bossing around, that's something you'd expect to see subconsciously acting on both sides - and you'd be able to deal with half of by yourself.

My dog is very intelligent. Each time I stop and let him play he remembers the place we stopped at. So going back home with my dog is really hard since he tries to stop in all the previous places he remembers, and usually they are like fifty or so. Also he always tries to go as far as possible from home, taking exactly the direction in which global distance increases, so my huskie dog should become a great mathematician if he desired so. I think one day we will discover how much more intelligent are dogs compared to what we think. Some more hints for dogs intelligence: My dog is a master in dodging other dogs while running. He takes a long time analyzing the pee he smells. Furthermore, to pee over other dogs pees, he usually spends about 15 seconds trying to find the best position to do it well, it must be a difficult task for him or perhaps he foresees and enjoys the real pleasure he will obtain doing so.
This is true, but a decent number of people with homes move so their interest rate does change.
It's usually a trade off between paying someone for rent, or paying someone else interest (and others for tax, maintenance, etc.)

You can't really take the investment aspect or any of these others out of the analysis if you want to understand what's best for you. Particularly in countries with policies to encourage/subsidize home ownership the answer is often, "buy a place", but not always.
> bought a house recently so I'm theoretically on the losing side of any drop in home prices

Same. I live in Wyoming. Our county has "workforce housing." It's exclusively for sale or rent to workers in the local area. (Versus remote workers or holidayers.)

I'm not advocating for this policy, though I think it's brilliant. But it highlights our desire, perhaps need, for non-market demand-side moderation. We presently put all the non-market moderation on the supply side. From the meaningful, like capacity, design and environmental reviews, to the useless: neighborhood bitching sessions and meaningless permits from every politician who needs petitions signed.

Instead, the Teton model points to a hybrid approach. Less regulation on the supply side. But more non-market requirements on the demand side. One approach is ring-fenced supply for groups the community deems desirable, like critical workers, disadvantaged groups, et cetera. We have good reason to be wary of this government-picking-the-winners approach. But if we want to maintain a community feel and keep housing affordable, the solution must be rationing.

Centralized rationing leads to patronage. (See New York City.) De-centralised rationing, where supply is held back for certain groups who have a market to themselves, looks more resilient. The process of choosing who's in the non-market group and how much of the market they get to themselves will be fraught. But it looks more plausible than convincing Atherton to build sky-rises or homeowners to accept rent and price regulation.

but are you willing to walk away from your current job where your employer won't share your sentiments? Are they going to switch to a Figma alternative because of ideology and emotions tied to the change in ownership? Isn't it more likely that the product will work as is and businesses won't face any direct interruption because owner changed?

I think Adobe made a smart decision, businesses are locked in and unlikely to switch once something is deeply integrated to their application design workflows.

"No politics" means "no partisan identity activism on the clock" like asking a company to get involved in "Black Lives Matters", taking positions about the war in Ukraine beyond nationwide sanctions, or displaying a rainbow flag during "pride month".

This is wrong. Running actually builds up the knees. Only walking is a good way to break down your knees as you get older. My father was trained from a young age to fear running. He had shot knees by his mid forties. I've been running since I was a teenager. No issues (I'm in my 40s).

> liberation of people from massively powerful banks and governments

The difference between business and governments is that in business every dollar has a vote, whereas in a democracy every adult has a vote.

"liberation of people" can only happen by having a working democracy. And a working democracy can only exist when there is (democratically elected) government. So it's not like people should be liberated from government, people should be the government.

Therefore I think the best situation is where government controls the money, and we the people control the government.
Walking quickly (at a speed that you want to start jogging, but you don't) is less efficient for same distance than actually running..which is better for your health.

To get the same benefits from running, you need to run faster/farther than walking. Just like when you switch biking, the same 3mi loop doesn't do any good and you need to start doing 10-15mi loops instead.
Since this post has blown up.
Let me clarify my point.

The US has zero moral authority to impose sanctions based on violations of human rights while simultaneously violating human rights on a global scale.

Additionally, we have seen the effects of sanctions, the average people suffer even more, and the regime stays the same.

Arguably the people of Cuba are worse off after sanctions than before.
> The big banks & investment funds will figure a way around it

What does this mean? How would they be able to postpone paying capital gains tax if the government said they had to pay capital gains tax at time of sale?

How about eliminating it, removing an avenue for corruption and extra costs for auditing said avenues for corruption, and giving cash to someone if the goal is for the government to help someone?

I don't like Coinbase's policy, but this is not at all inconsistent with it. They were clear that they'd only ever engage politically in order to further their company's goals. This is exactly what they said they'd do.

I would not work at a company that behaved like Coinbase in this case, but it's not fair to suggest they are being hypocritical here. Their stance has been consistent - it's just a bad one.
