We all live in our own world of the mind. Everything is subjective. The thoughts and memories that we struggle with are not the issue believe it or not. What traps us is our fear of uncomfortable feelings. You don't need to run from or reject these feelings though. Try being open and accepting. Explore your own conditioning and feelings. It can't hurt you but if you 100% accept your feelings you are free. When you feel something uncomfortable try just sitting as still, quiet and relaxed and just let it happen. See if you can find what it is about it that is bad or should be rejected. I think you'll find that it's not inherently bad at all. It's just a different feeling. If you don't run from your feelings and you accept them the thoughts and feelings that brought them up become irrelevant because, after all, this is 100% subjective. Nothing "matters". Nothings is "important". You don't "need" anything. Our conditioning tells us we need things and the uncomfortable feelings enforce that believe. Free yourself by doing ... nothing. Just accept it as it is :)
My parents are my neighbours. It's great. One of the things I value most about how life turned out.
The problem with this is that "little trauma" is an oxymoron, trauma is severe by definition.

The word is another victim of the hyperbolic tendency in, specifically, the Californian dialect of American English. You will see people talking about various small insults as 'trauma', and brand-new constructions like "trauma dumping" which is, often as not, telling a friend about a bad week when she wasn't in the mood to hear it.

Don't fall for it. Trauma fucks you up, that's how you know it's trauma.
IMO that is Sony's problem, selling special purpose hardware that could be general purpose but locking it down so that your business model is secure... after the point of sale... seems a bit sneaky.

I enjoyed many hours of gaming on the PS2 and I bought it (in part) because I would be able to install Linux on it. I still managed to become a Linux guy today, in spite of the rug by Sony, and I suppose there's nothing overtly wrong with clarifying with an update that the primary intended use of your product is in fact its primary intended use, but as a hobbyist (dang it, now I've gone and done that again)...
This comment is tongue in cheek, but it's not meant to be pithy nor sarcastic — I mean this with sincerity.

Let me be the first to extend my heartfelt congratulations. You avoided the inevitable SEC enforcement action and DoJ indictment!

Thanks to your skill, moral backbone and foresight you're not spending $900/hr/head on a cadre of lawyers. That's better than how most people fare in such a scenario. So, congratulations!

However, you still need to maintain OPSEC and STFU. You've already said things in other comments that aren't the wisest things to say. I would stop right now and call a very good lawyer.

If you don't know how to find one, then call a few and ask whom they'd recommend. Zero in on the choice from there. I sincerely hope that you won't disclose any further details here or elsewhere. Especially in writing.

And remember, DON'T TALK TO THE POLICE (without a great lawyer present), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-7o9xYp7eE
That is pretty sobering thought.

> I had access to "live stock feed", which is considered privileged information.

As someone with 22 years in equity trading technology Real-time market data is NOT privileged information.

This is not "material non-public information" because every professional trader has this access.

Having access to see client orders prior to them reaching a public exchange IS material non-public and this will put you in the "you need to have all your trades reviewed" category.

If you want further proof, most retail client trading systems now offer "real-time" market data, at least for the US markets.

wait...

A stand, chain lube + cleaner, tubes+tube patch kit, chain brush, floor pump, chain drive tool, cable cutter and a set or two of wrenches/screwdrivers cost you more then a 200/300 euro switch plus at least one 60 euro game?

And you bought these? You didn't inherit all this stuff from your grandparents together with an "Oma fiets" or two when you born?

jokes aside, I do imagine that you might have more specialized tools. specially if you're working with some of the older sport bicycles that need love.

If the SEC only fines 5x the profit, they have to fine at least 20% of offenses to make this an unprofitable business practice (never mind punishing it). Does the SEC even have the manpower for that?
Though you're getting down voted I do think there's some merit to your comment. When I moved from Canada to the Bay area I thought, and everyone said, that they (friends, family) would come visit. I got 2 visits in 8 years, both by my mom.

This despite me going back to see varying people roughly twice per year. I've sadly learned that many of those relationships are a one way street of convenience. They're happy to see me when I come, to walk down memory lane. But they'll never put in the effort to come see me. Sadly this realization has been the demise of many of those relationships that I was carrying.

Mildly OT, but the hair cutting gifs are surprisingly satisfying to watch :)
But that advertising money still come from somewhere and someone, right? Surely there is some other way to make those someones to spend that money on the internet and all related technology?
6 and 7, nobody cares about inflation. It is as the weather, uncaring and random. About as much changes due to wars on the other side of the planet, or large companies deciding to change their offerings for obscure reasons. (from the average person's perspective)

Besides, there really isn't that much "hysteria" in the media about it, ctrl-f on cnn, fox news, bbc, etc frontpages shows only 1 result for inflation and I literally can't see where it is amongst the headlines. Life goes on

I cant refind the website right now, but i once encountered an interesting website that took this concept further.
It demonstrated that many of us have already spent between 95-99% of the time we will see our parents.

Eg:

* presume your parents have you at ~30

* Live at home 18years x 365 days per year = 6570 days

* You see them a week per year for the remainder of their life = 50 years * 7 days per year = 350 days

therefore at 19yrs old you have 350/(6570+350) days remaining ~= 5%
The Uneven Geography of Remote Work
No, because a capitalist (in the friedman, etc. sense) distinguishes between free markets and ancap-competition. A free market is a construct of a state with a functioning legal system, requiring as it does, property rights (, limited liability, etc.).

Capitalism is not ancap libertarianism. Indeed, it seems quite clear that ancap is an iterative contradiction, as "rule-free competition" cannot produce free markets.
Biggest mistake on Java and .NET languages was not having AOT compilation in the box like Delphi and VB 6 (to use common mainstream examples).

Had that been the case and probably we would never had the phase of JIT everywhere, followed by doing websites in scripting languages, to come full circle back to AOT compilation and first tier support for systems programing.

In any case, yes definitely exciting times.
Top and htop alternatives: Glances and nmon
In theory fees should rise whenever there is congestion but it also leads to people complaining about their low-fee transaction being stuck in limbo (mempool).

As long as there is free space in block it makes sense for miners to include any non-zero free transaction, so it is a race to bottom with only occasional surges, kinda like the ones that happen in Uber.
> To me, the whole endeavour of trying to prove or disprove a conspiracy is a fools errand. You either believe it or not, and can have adiscussion about it, but there's no point in bringing in a scientific process for something that is not science at its core.

Yes, my thought is mostly that it's important to explicitly recognize that it's basically the god of the gaps argument because conspiracy theorists like to sound science-y and, especially, to leave as many blanks as possible for the reader to fill in so they have as much wiggle-room as possible for the future.
I haven’t reached out to them and I haven’t been contacted. There was a short window where I was super admin for their entire Google workspace, but everything was pretty cryptic and I had limited time to exfil data.

I seriously contemplated going public but I started receiving death threats when I left the project, so I took the… cautious approach.

Maybe now that the project is wholly sunk, I should make a YouTube video.
That's frankly not enough. That's plenty for a student who is on the cusp of slipping behind -- who's been trained on the culture of college since grade school.

And it's no help at all to the student who is mostly bewildered by the constant swarm of disjoint activity on a college campus. 4x so for a first generation student. These students understand math and exams. The cultural stuff in the middle mostly goes over their heads.
Why are you comparing a text editor with a computer?
I still can't buy the PS5 in my country. To me, Sony is dead. I've had every Playstation console from the start and have bought one within months of release, it has been almost TWO years now and still there's nothing. I'll never purchase any of their things ever again.
The interest rate (12%) is well, well below the inflation rate. Does it still matter then?
I personally prefer to have some distance. In my case 10-15 minute drive. Enough to stop entirely random visits, but still nothing really stopping it.
It’s very hard to attribute sales correctly.

I might see an ad today, think about it for a week, then come back and buy the product later. I might keep buying it for years afterwards. The ad is often just one step in the process that gets somebody to buy.

I think of how I got turned on to Monster Energy drinks because I saw them at the store and liked the product and the portion size compared to Red Bull. A few years later Monster started spending heavily on sponsorships and other marketing but by that point I had lost interest and moved on.
This doesn't seem particularly ground-breaking...

Right. Talking to an imaginary friend isn't the same as a real friend but tossing a baseball into the air isn't like playing baseball, yet if you told me "kids who spend an hour a day tossing and catching a baseball are better at playing baseball" I'd say "well, duh".
Anecdotally, I pronounce them the same way and have never heard anyone making much of a distinction (northeastern US), with the exception of the rarely used "to put on appearances" ("Dude, this intellectual affect is too much, stop it with the scarves!") which I'd generally put more of a distinct "a" sound at the front.

> She’s not a criminal.

And the million dollars she paid to settle this, was that a "charitable donation"?

It is unfortunate the US allows wealthy people to "settle" via fines while the poor often face jail time instead.

Had she not "settled" it would have went to court, and if she was found guilty what would that have made her then?
It doesn't seem to be a popular sentiment, but I agree. My parents are retired, moderately wealthy, and in reasonably good health, yet the burden to spend time with them seems to be entirely on my partner and me, who have demanding careers. Not to mention, my in-laws are in worse health than my parents, so now we have to prioritize our limited travel time between two sets of elderly parents, visiting our friends dispersed across the planet, and engaging in our own interests. Quitting our jobs and moving to be near my parents (or my partner's) isn't an option, so the status quo of seeing them every other year will remain until they decide to change it.
You seem to imply that consent is required. Consent is not required if you are not gathering data that needs to be consented to.

If my tools are gathering data behind my back and not telling me, that is troubling. I should not be liable for this, as it is an abuse of trust that would result in me no longer using the tool had I known prior.

Only in adversarial games, and most of engineering isn't adversarial. Enabling compression on your website or designing your UI to make things clear to users give real improvements that don't degrade with time. Other sorts of improvements like optimizing your JS delivery or your server specs decay with time, because people make incidental changes elsewhere, but this is a slow process. Adversarial situations are very different because there's a motivated person on the other end trying to counter what you're doing, and gains are especially short-lived.
What's the theory that says interest rate cuts will _lower_ inflation? There must be something, otherwise they wouldn't do it, no matter how ridiculous it sounds, right?
It's a great example of how being candid, even rude, can turn out to be very beneficial to people. Unfortunately, most people, unlike the thread author, would just get defensive and perceive this insight as a personal attack.
Living in Georgia, i have had an inordinate number of discussions with people who are unvaccinated. I will say that while that kind of talking point gets repeated a lot, deep down, most people know it's not true.

The number of people i meet who say that, but really are so ignorant as to believe it when you talk to them in private, is very low.

Instead, it's usually because it's socially acceptable to say it. The reason it became acceptable is in large part because of the loss of trust that was caused - go look at all media reports and scientists in the run up to vaccines, and when they started to be distributed.

The narrative was 100% "This will end covid by making sure nobody gets sick". Then it suddenly turned out that was not true, and that narrative disappeared and got replaced with the "that won't happen but you should still take it because it helps make sure you don't die" narrative. This has happened with lots of things during covid - claims are made, data later suggests some are correct, some are not, narratives change and adapt, old claims are forgotten, and overall people trust less.

I understand this is basically "The scientific method in full view".
But that isn't always a good thing :)

We aren't built to be socially accepting of this sort of thing, as much as people seem to think that all forms of transparency are uniformly good. It may be a long time before that changes.

One of the other major factors is that covid is fairly silent as a killer - it happens mostly behind closed doors (or later on, when "surviving" people discover that lung transplants have an astonishingly low 5 year survival rate, and that lots of lung issues are relatively short-term death sentences).

That makes it easy to out-of-sight, out-of-mind it, and humans are very very good at (read newspaper about war, think war is horrible, turn page to the comics and completely place war out of your mind)

If covid made people randomly bleed from their eyeballs (IE so that it was hard to not have it be in your face), you would a lot more vaccine uptake, even if the overall death rate was the same.
I think the idea that learning emacs will suck all your brain power is a bit false. You can really just use it on the side from time to time and get a feel about it without investing much. It is a large (40+ years show) system, that even old users don't know fully ..

And in a way that's how I use vi, I'm emacs mostly but I play with vi regularly, I stay at the no-plugin level enjoy keyboard golfing :)
The biggest downside of moving out of state is being so far from my family. There is so much support I used to get. Now I don't have an automatic babysitter I can trust. I don't have someone to come help when I need to a hand for something.

It may well fork under those circumstances but we've seen, multiple times, that a fork isn't terminal. You just usually end up with a dominant fork and the others tend to wither.

So the real question is, would the dominant fork be the one that ends mining or the one that continues it? And that would likely be answered by which the the power brokers in Bitcoin-land will support ie the mining pools.

So, for your contention to be correct, we would have to believe that the mining pools would willingly give up their source of power because of Satoshi's vision.

It's not impossible for that to happen, of course. But the whole history of just about everything suggest that it's not the most likely outcome.
I recall science journalists spreading the concept of sterilizing immunity with regard to the covid vaccines even comparing them to small pox vaccine and invoking the concept of herd immunity which cannot and will not be possible with this disease. That is not a public fault.
It's mostly an issue with the title; the content is valuable.

There's something to think about in all this but I really can't get over imagining what a weird dude George is.
Woah this is a pretty meaty part of the allegation because I 100% would assume that would be good enough to inform your audience that it was an add. Especially given how small a tweet is, how can you reasonably say that a consumer read the content of the tweet but did not read the #ad part?

Twitch streamers are paid to play games all the time. It was one of their large revenue streams. They very rarely if ever mention that it is an ad, but they put in their title #ad exactly like this accusation. Obviously the SEC is unlikely to care bout streamers shilling video games to children, but seems like that could be a problem in the future.

Your parents can also be the most wonderful, easy-going, caring people the word but it still gets really old, really fast living with them or spending several days a week with them over the years. It also seems super illogical you would constrain yourself to one geographical place in the world based on what your parents thought was a good place to live, not based on what you actually want. That sounds stifling to me.

Distance also makes family relationships more meaningful, not less. My parents, grandparents, and siblings all live in different states or countries thousands of miles away. We still plan vacations and meetups and holidays each year, we talk on the phone, online, etc, so the idea I’ll only see them X times before they die don’t add up.

It truly is. I felt inadequate as a musician until I found “my voice”. Now it seems incoherent to compare myself to another artist. I’ve also found myself a lot more accepting of other art because it doesn’t seem to be a competition any longer.
I was intrigued by the text I had as a subtitle in one run:

One of the geologists who used to work on that "clean up" project mentioned that the lines on the map of what was clean, what was still contaminated and how badly radioactive plumes spread were all drawn by politicians. Not by engineers, scientists or technicians.

I think fraud is ubiquitous in advertising and often the publishers are to blame. Frequently on mobile devices the ads cover the content and you wind up clicking on the ad when you are trying to hide it.

Also I think it is not so accidental that mobile web sites have so many layout shifts because each layout shift is a chance you click on the wrong link and ka-ching!
Depending on how you define 'city', more like 40%!

But you'd expect that to make light-based growth estimates _worse_, really; most of the new lights will be coming on in the already-pretty-bright Greater Dublin Area, rather than the more even distribution you'd expect in a country less dominated by one city.
Works also for your children: considering i've already spent over 60% (?) of my total time with my children (13/14yrs old)...
I will see them much less because of frustrating visa rules. That’s the kind of thing I agreed to when I decided to become an immigrant I guess.
Gosh, sounds like the Turkish lira is a poor store of value!

Right on the threshold of being a useless unit of account as well.

Shortly thereafter, it becomes a bad unit of exchange, unless you like taking wheelbarrows to the grocery store.

Turkey is a country of 85 million people. Y'all may scream until blue in face about cyberponzies, but do try to save some breath to explain how else citizens of this country might preserve their liquid wealth as things go pear shaped.

For extra credit, let's hear how this could never happen to an economic union that's a whole four or five times larger! I'm all ears and have definitely never heard "we're different" before, and if I have heard it, they were always correct.

Edit: worth it. I draw strength from your petulance.
What if the customers you want to attract use a cloud provider?
> Why not? It's free [...]

I often find myself wondering why people in rich countries feel like this is such a compelling argument. I know everyone's financial situations are different, but if the claimed benefits of a thing are taken at face value, why should a price tag of $0 or $100 factor into your decision to take it?

Consider someone with a median software dev salary. Why would the minimal cost of the thing be considered for more than a split second? The effectiveness and safety profile seem to me like they should be all that really matters (probably distantly followed by the social/political/professional pressures).

For Americans, it might be from an assumption that if it's medical, it's life-alteringly expensive, but thats not even the case for these things. But this idea of "why wouldn't you take it, its free!" just doesn't compute for me. There are a lot of free things I have no interest in.

EDIT: Not to mention that it isn't even really free! You're still paying for it with your taxes/insurance premiums.
