Until you are big enough to have lawyers look over everything for you, I think the only reasonable course of action is to exclude EU nationals from your service. There are a lot of armchair HN lawyers (including in this thread) who will say "just don't track, it's easy," but what the word "track" means to a normal person and what it means to GDPR enforcement are not the same. As a market, it's not worth the risk until it's worth the legal advice.

I think you're on your way to coming up with the idea of an expected value. The additional step of reasoning to get there is to think about what number we'd use to describe an outcome that had a 50% probability of going "forwards" and a 50% probability of going "backwards." If 0 makes sense as an answer to that, you're doing a probability-weighted average of outcomes. Quantum mechanics is full of expected values, and you can interpret wavefunctions just fine with them.

In the QM formalism, we come up with these operators that can be used to compute expected values from wavefunctions, by doing a calculation that, if it were involving vectors, would be written like E[A] = x^T* Ax, where x is the wavefunction, x^T* is its transpose and conjugate, and A is a matrix designed to pull out an expected value when used in that way. The demand that the results of this calculation be real for every possible wavefunction give us the property that A is a hermitian (A = the transpose and complex conjugate of A, it's like being a symmetric matrix), and from there we know that A can always be diagonalized. If A can always be diagonalized, we can always write x in a basis that diagonalizes it, in which case x^T* Ax becomes something that just conjugate-squares the magnitude in front of each eigenvector and multiplies it by something on the diagonal of the now-diagonalized A. If you go back to the original definition of expected values as a probability-weighted average, the conjugate-squared terms are playing the role of probabilities and the eigenvalues on the diagonal of the matrix are playing the role of outcomes.

It's probably time for the Linux world to distance itself from the trash fire that is GNU, as they keep breaking backwards compatibility. This isn't 1970, it's 2022, people! You do not just break the world for no good reason.

GNU has served its purpose, it's time to stop relying on them. It would be a lot easier to convince the BSD people to support the few GNU specific flags in user land utilities and to add GNU libc compatibility, than it would be to convince the GNU maintainers to write good software.

> It's sad how little the US has invested in maintaining its public transit infrastructure compared to other countries.

I'm on the fence about this, on average across the US, I'd agree. But where we do have decent transit, we seem to spend a lot. The NY MTA will spend $18B[1] in total in 2022, more than 6x the amount the state spends on all state roads in NY for 2018[2]. Despite this amount of money being spent, we have the general problems that you mention above, plus the fact that any expansion is prohibitively expensive. I just have to wonder, even if a lot more money were spent, would we actually see proportional improvements?

Go back 100 years and just because people had more shared media, it didn't make everyone think the same. There were communists and fascists, people who loved or hated new technology, music, etc.

Historians reading newspapers learn what a small part of society thought, and hopefully read them in the context of as much other information from the time. But maybe the newspaper made something that hardly anyone really cared about seem like the main opinion, or vice versa - it happens now days, likely more back then.

If anything social media might make things easier for future historians, with literally billions of opinions written by everyone from homeless people to billionaire CEOs, all within large datasets to be analysed.

More importantly though is the amount of semi-political & marketing-related polling that goes on. By semi-political I mean things politicians want to know, rather than polling about politics - people regularly get polled on anything from transport ideas to favourite songs. And I imagine that's a huge trove of data compared to what there is around public opinion even decades ago, yet alone centuries.

As walled gardens begin to reassert themselves, I think this advice above will be the big argument in open source over the next ten years and needs to be written on every vertical surface. Either we will have social contracts in open source, or we will have commercial contracts. There will be diminishing examples of “both” and people will continue clutching their pearls about co-opting until something changes.

“Be grateful you get anything” is good advice for people struggling to find their own peace of mind, but when it comes up in an argument that’s just abuse.
>>Not even a major/primary/only shareholder can just do whatever they want.

Of course not. I did not say or imply that they could. I was merely clarifying that there is no abstract "company" with a will of its own, and that the major players, WITHIN the constraints of the law and the other players, can and often do exploit power for their own purposes rather than an abstract ideal.

>>There definitely is a strong separation between Zuckerberg and the company. Even if he had 100% the company still would have to act fiscally responsibly for itself.

Yes, people can have multiple hats, and there are laws about fiduciary responsibility to shareholders. There are often lawsuits over failures to uphold such responsibilities.

>>Read the law.

Yes, I do read the law. I do not make the silly assumption, as you apparently do, that just because there is a law, it fully covers all possible wrongdoing and people always follow it.

There are nearly unlimited actions that can be legitimately dual-purpose, benefiting the corporation and the individual executive/board member, whoever. and that does not even begin to account for the actions that are only arguably beneficial to the corporation but really extract value for the wrongdoer. I've literally heard an executive state "There's 1000 ways to screw minority shareholders", and watched them do it. There's a practice that screws creditors that is so common there's a name for it - a "cram-down". I could go on endlessly.

If you really think that the fact that laws define responsibility of corporate players, and therefore there is no wrongdoing, I'd like to talk to you about an opportunity for some great oceanfront property in Kansas. Sheesh.

>I think you and others in this thread are missing that the proposed mandatory bidding price is a multiple of the "real" value.

That doesn't work. People will set the "real" value to be lower than the real value, in order to reduce their taxes, but high enough that someone who wants to buy the house has to pay barely enough, after multiplying, to make it worthwhile to sell. The tax rates will then be raised accordingly and we'll just have "the mandatory bidding price is the real value" with extra steps.

The reason many economic measurements are based on year over year change (not just inflation) is seasonal trends. Numerous factors change, quite dramatically, on an annual basis. That affects not only the factor changing but many others as well.

As but one example, retail business sales skyrocket in November. But that will, in turn, also impact monetary velocity, which will impact inflation, and so on. Seasonal adjustments are possible, but going year over year gives you the most meaningful data.
That read to me as deliberately absurd.

Aaronson's academic journey was... fairly nonstandard. The circumstances under which he learnt about this are likely to be correspondingly nonstandard. "We all learned about Gödel in our Undergrad/Highschool/Grad School/whatever else" will easily come across as either condescending or arrogant. Kindergarten strikes me as an amusingly flippant way of saying something closer to "at some point in our academic journeys".
I wasn't contesting that, just pointing out I don't think 'most' people budget annually. For that matter, most I know don't seem to remember last years prices good or bad. They are more worried about the present.

Don't dwell on it - save your sanity and move on
1.5 billion cell phones were sold in 2018. This represents 20% of the world population, assuming a negligible number of people buy two phones in the same calendar year.

Between 1.4 and 1.5 billion cell phones were sold in 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 (projected), representing roughly another 6 billion cell phones. That is, there is roughly one cell phone per person in the world "created after 2017."

Obviously, a significant number of people bought more than one cell phone in that time period; but, offsetting that, the average cellphone is sold more than once due to the used market. While it's hard to project this to actual estimate saturation of cell phones "created after 2017", it's very hard to imagine a case that the 6 billion phones from 2019 on don't represent at least another 10% of the population.

There is also advanced hardware besides cell phones.

Less than 30% of the world population owning hardware created after 2017 doesn't pass the sniff test.
What exactly is "a TikTok-affiliated agency"?

Because to me it sounds just like a publishing label that takes a massive cut between the actual content producer (tiktok user) and the platform (TikTok).

If that's the case, that's just another situation just like what happened between Spotify and the artists. I heard a lot of noise about it, but turns out Spotify only takes a 30% cut. Why do artists complain about their 70% cut? Oh, that's because artists signed to a label only get a fraction for it, while their label gets the rest. That has nothing to do with Spotify and all with contracts between artists and labels. None of that applies to independent artists with no label, who all get their full 70%.

Is "a TikTok-affiliated agency" basically acting as a music label here?
Yeah that’s a big pain point that i’m hoping to see figured out soon. It can’t reach mass appeal until that’s handled seamlessly.
Merchant Discount Rate. Another (confusing) name for what you might know as "payment processing fee".

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/merchant-discount-rate....
I'm working on the iOS/WatchOS app(s) for a major bank, and fortunately of course most of our staff uses it; too - because of course we bank with the bank we work for. (There's tangible benefits to a staff account, even those who have accounts elsewhere I'm willing to bet still do their primary banking with us.)

I've actually had an instance or two over my four years there where I discovered a bug in our PROD/App Store version myself; simply from using the software enough.

It's really unfortunate that this isn't the case for a lot of dev shops. Dogfooding is incredibly important to QA.
> You can still have money and markets without capitalism

Money yes markets ish. A pillar of capitalism is the private ownership of capital, without private ownership many markets no longer exist (talking the economic definition of 'market').
It's just reading/writing a directory of files. If you set it up to save into a synced directory, whether that be Google Drive, OneDrive, iCloud, Dropbox, whatever, you can point all your Obsidian installs on various machines to the same synced directory and it'll give you the same effect.
California does not control the Federal Reserve Bank, so they are unable to print money.
That's an insightful question.

One rational for this could be that we shouldn't see this in isolation and should also consider other societal aspects too, mainly - (1) women are perceived as the weaker sex (2) women who commit crimes are actually much lower than male criminals and (3) male pride (men too are held to some unreasonably high standards in society, one of popular ones being that men need to protect women and always be chivalrous towards them). So a male dominated society, while holding a "fallen" woman in contempt, might still irrationally blame themselves for "failing to protect" a woman from going waylaid and thus award her a less harsher punishment to assuage their guilt and as an act to "protect" her from further harm. (This is perhaps why many are now advocating for gender neutral laws because some laws do prescribe different treatment based on the gender of the person involved).

Note though that while a judicial punishment might be less severe, the societal contempt that such women face lasts much longer than with a man in a similar situation. Indeed, while, despite the contempt they feel, the judicial system can show restraint due to their legal training to disregard emotions, others in society don't often hold back in showing their disgust and contempt towards a "fallen" women, depending on what gender specific societal standard she has violated. In my own society (in India), I have seen woman who have committed adultery (no longer a crime) being treated more harshly by society than men who have also committed a similar act. From the point of view of our discussion, this could be because the standard ("that woman should display higher level of control over their sexual desire and be more empathetic") is gender specific, and doesn't equally apply to the men for whom the societal standard is different ("men too are expected to control their sexual urges but they can be forgiven as they cannot indulge in it unless a woman consents").

"Some markets become obsolete when you remove capitalism" is not the same as "markets are only a thing under capitalism".

The real estate market would probably look much different and may even dissolve entirely if you forbid private ownership of real estate capital. I don't think this is a groundbreaking insight, I'm just clarifying for those who are careless about their use of words.
Yep, that's more than enough. I first got a 6-20 since that's the L2 plug that came with my PHEV's provided charger, and the car can't physically charge any faster than 4.3kW anyway. The only reason we're putting a 14-50 in now is that it's shorthand for "EV-ready" real estate listings if we ever want to sell the house, and the car we hope to get next year can support 9.6kW.
