Of course, financial crises will always affect entire countries financially. But, private firms usually reallocate capital quickly enough to weather economic shocks faster than the government can.

If they can't, they go out of business, losing their own capital. Government bureaucrats don't change their mind quickly enough because they don't suffer personal loss. They might even get promoted.

For instance, Nigeria's former economic minister (Okonjo Iweala) was part of a super-corrupt administration; guess where she works today? World Trade Organization DG!

I'm a bit relieved you obviously see the evils of Marxist-Leninism and Stalinist strongman socialism, but I doubt any other than those can even exist. If you can recommend a book on truly democratic socialism, I'll take a look at it to see things from your perspective to see why you sincerely believe them.

on my own part, I'd love if you check out this book (History of American Socialisms; link: https://cdn.mises.org/History%20of%20American%20Socialisms_3...). The book analyzes 20+ socialist experiments in the United States. This were individuals pooling their farms and property to start democratic socialist communes because they sincerely believed capitalism was the answer.

Mostly sincere humans, but their ideas always failed, and they had to split up. I sincerely want you to read it, even if just the last chapter.

You may not be completely clear on what depression is and what "burnout" is. I'd certainly say burnout requires something more than being unsatisfied, bored or unmotivated with your work.
Building 1000 rockets is not going to solve this problem though; and there are far easier experiments that can be done on mammals in low-G settings before "starting a colony" on Mars.

Not to mention, there are good reasons why the ancient Egyptians did not start work on a rocket program, even though they did want to fly.

My experience is identical to yours. I loved the PSVR but sold it 6 months later due to lack of use. Half-Life Alyx was the only game to come out for VR that I wish I could check out. But even that isn’t worth the cost and space investment in a new headset.
Would not expect to find a post like this on here. My totally unqualified intuition puts me somewhat in the panpsychist camp, that I'd crudely outline as "the brain does not produce consciousness but is more of an antenna that receives it."

While I dont ascribe any spirituality to these "entities" as you describe, I do wonder if they exist in some physical form. If they do we'll no doubt find and classify them eventually.

Well you need human beings to go and make stuff like food and gas. That stuff is also already made as efficiently as possible. So supply is definitely, also, going to be reduced.

In Turkmenistan a pit has been burning for over 40 years.

In 1971, when the republic was still part of the Soviet Union, a group of Soviet geologists went to the Karakum in search of oil fields. They found what they thought to be a substantial oil field and began drilling. Unfortunately for the scientists, they were drilling on top of a cavernous pocket of natural gas which couldn't support the weight of their equipment. The site collapsed, taking their equipment along with it [...] Natural gas is composed mostly of methane, which, though not toxic, does displace oxygen [...] So the scientists decided to light the crater on fire, hoping that all the dangerous natural gas would burn away in a few weeks' time.

Hmm, is it definitely your application with your personal details? I've had a few instances where someone with the same name (and a very similar email address) accidentally used my email address instead of theirs when signing up for things online. So maybe they used your email by mistake or something, especially if you're using something like Gmail for it.

If it's definitely based on your details, then yeah, impersonation seems likely.
Kara (Climate Tech, ESG) | NYC | Full Time | www.joinkara.com | Head of Engineering / Founding Engineer

Kara is a software platform to empower investors and technology companies to achieve their climate and social goals.
The problem that we are solving is that investors (LPs and GPs), governments, and a whole new generation of consumers are increasingly asking if their capital is building the world that they want to see: Are our investments helping solve our climate crisis? What's the diversity of the leadership of our portfolio companies? Are there any practices within the companies that are not responsible?

We are a quickly growing startup, with numerous clients and pilots using our MVP platform. This is a great opportunity to be our founding engineer at Kara. We are looking for a senior/principal engineer that is ready to jump into the startup life and take the next step in their career as a founding engineer. We currently have an MVP built in no-code (Bubble) that works great at current scale, but you will build and own our next gen platform (to be built on a traditional tech stack from scratch). You will own the architecture, grow the engineering organization, develop and implement process, communicate technical strategy to multiple stakeholders, and work directly with the CEO and Head of Product to build the platform that aims to achieve their social and climate goals!

Location: Since the team is small and we are looking for a founding engineer, NYC is preferred, but also open to remote. In this case, travel to NYC would be beneficial to the team and we’d love to see and create with you in person!

For more information about us and the position, check out the description here: https://apply.workable.com/kara-inc/j/725A61AC38/

If you’d like more information before applying, feel free to reach out to me here: nick@modeselekt.com. My name is Nick and I’m Kara’s engineering advisor responsible for the MVP platform and helping to hire an amazing founding engineer!

It’s self-evident that products that generate revenue get more investment and are of higher quality and experience.

Things “should be free” is the baseless claim here, and a common fantasy.

Truth is working poor are hurt by low quality transit, which is directly correlated to low investment and acceptance of broken quality of life rules.

I would much rather continued US world domination than cede that power to China. Yes, that's easy for me to say as an American, but I can't help but think that other Western nations would suffer as well under China's dominance.

Yes, the US's liberal democracy isn't in the best of shape (to put it mildly), but China is an isolationist, authoritarian nation where state censorship and human-rights abuses are the norm, not the exception.
I don't understand the entire system either, but one obvious effect is that there will be much less cash-out refinancing or flipping, which means at least that source of cash and the associated demand will get smaller. And judging how many people I know around town who have been treating their houses like ATMs, it's not a small effect.

I pay SpaceX $110 a month for the best satellite internet service I have ever used. Even if the world was 90% urbanized with high speed fiber in 90% of homes, which is nowhere close to being true by the way, that would leave an addressable market of close to 1B people, nevermind the use cases for intercontinental travel and domestic travel (the service is already better than 4G and competitive with 5G average speeds @ 100+ Mbps).

Also, at 100+Mbps, this is the first generation of the technology. Is it feasible that they hit 1Gpbs by end of decade? I wouldn't rule out the possibility.

Quoting a quote "The only way a business is successful and productive is if employees feel that sense of empowerment, that sense of energy and connection for the company’s mission and are doing meaningful work"

So companies are giving the intrinsic motivation spiel. Fine. Who doesn't want to gaze at the majesty of creation from the peak of the Maslow pyramid/hierarchy?

Yet this year has shown that at the first sign of trouble, even with billions parked in the bank, shareholders and not employees come first. Or if you are a startup then leadership mismanagement and bad decisions are absolved with layoffs (and some tiers). That bottom unsexy part of the Maslow pyramid where basic needs exist are looking very shaky. Hats off to you if you can keep the company and vision your number 1 goal at the looming expense of your family's well-being!
It’s the next frontier and an area for expanding our technological prowess, even if we disregard the doomer psychology aspect of it.

Not to mention when even further in the future we decide that interstellar travel must be attempted.
To what question?

I think this currently is a mathematical curiosity, but you never know whether it might lead to a better understanding of the prime numbers, a faster factorization algorithm, or whatever.

An IMO more interesting curiosity is Mill’s constant “the smallest positive real number A such that the floor function of the double exponential function
⌊A^3^n⌋ is a prime number for all natural numbers n” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mills%27_constant)

(I think it’s more interesting because of the simplicity of the formula. On the negative side, it doesn’t generate all primes)

(https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Formula_for_primes has more curious formulas)

Sure, there are contexts where the functional approach is actually more natural - especially already highly abstract contexts. I actually like to use certain functional paradigms in my day to day programming (or did, before switching to Go). I just dislike the claim that imperative code is simply more familiar and not more natural/intuitive (in general).
You have to multiply by the severity of the issue. A low probability event that ends all life on Earth has a different risk profile than focusing on earthquakes which happen more frequently but are comparatively drastically less catastrophic. Also we could conceivably prevent an asteroid impact with sufficient warning and enough math / dry runs. Earthquakes don’t have good answers afaik.
Do both and more. When using an unfamiliar package check it’s upload history. How far does it go back? How did I discover the package, do i trust that source? Etc.

Unless your code is never going to touch important data or resources, like for example (but not limited to) being used commercially in any vein then you can’t keep it in a padded cell forever.

I just checked their website and they have 4 products listed under "Products"...

Grafana is obviously the main one, their original product and the most popular one. It's to aggregate data from various sources and make dashboards.

Loki is a logs collector that I personally didn't try but I think it's popular. They released it after Grafana.

I don't know the third one.

The last one seems to be a wrapper around Prometheus (a metrics collector/database).

Fair to assume you should start with Grafana. For the source, if you don't have a Prometheus instance, you can test it with any SQL database.

> but I believe fragmenting the community has almost always led to the overall downfall of a language

I'd argue the opposite. Most programming languages that truly thrive have multiple independent implementations. Go always (1.0+) had multiple implementations and for some of us this was a factor in accepting it as a serious contender.

Fragmentation is not a concern as long as the language and standard library remain well defined. The more the merrier.

(I'm not arguing for trying to wrestle control from the current team, I think they are doing a fine job. Only meant to address the fragmentation thing)
> I created two apps, one to draw the 3do logo and the other to show the logicware logo. After they executed, they were purged from memory and the main game could run without loss of memory.

If you are using it for video calls, most don't do 4K, but you will still get much better low-light performance than the average laptop webcam.
This, pretty much. Long before there was anything like Rust, Java was the memory-safe alernative to C++ for larger projects. And yes it was slow and clunky, but devs still put up with it because the benefits were so compelling.
> I think in 10-20 years the C++ community will regret enshrining "modern" into so much of the literature.

In other circumstances I would agree, but cmake coined the term "modern cmake" when they released cmake 3.0 and with it their support for target-based projects, and after a couple of decades of "modern cmake" a sizeable portion of the cmake community still failed to update their code.
Honestly, I see the same pattern with all OSS products that are funded by VC. I guess they have to show those growth numbers. I don't have a problem with them trying to make money but OSS almost seems like a gimmick/dangling carrot to really just signup for their cloud version. I would rather have them be honest.

Glad you found it useful. I was worried it would come off as too esoteric/contrived. There are lots of other legitimate, substantive scenarios, but it's generally hard to give examples that have both the intended effect of really resonating with a wide audience and that can also be described succinctly. The tokenizer use case is something I struck upon a few months ago and remains the best thing that reasonably stands alone to work as an example that I've found so far.

> They are clearly mutating the piece of paper to add new numbers to it.

No, they are simply adding a new record for the word occurrence. If the paper runs out, they grab another sheet and continue. This is clearly an append-only ledger, just like that used in accounting. These are both immutable abstractions.

The fact that this is happening on a single sheet of paper is merely an optimization, it's not a property of the underlying algorithm they're employing. The post-it equivalent you describe is simply a less space efficient version of exactly the same algorithm. You're basically saying that tail call elimination makes FP no longer FP.

> There is no linked list in sight.

What do linked lists have to do with anything? You don't think that FP or immutable programming have to use lists do you?

> They are also flipping the pages of the book in order, another imperative paradigm.

Traversing an immutable sequence in order is now an imperative algorithm? Since when?

What's really happening here is that you've already assumed that physical reality and people's intuitions are imperative, regardless of the contortions required.

This example of counting words and the general ledger are perfect examples: it's absolutely crystal clear that all of the recorded entries are immutable and that this log of entries is append-only, which is a characteristic property of FP and immutable abstractions, and yet you have to contort your thinking into looking at the paper itself as some mutable state that's essential to the process in order to call this an imperative process.

Peterson is straight on with that one.

I have successfully used thay technique to then fix bugs actually. Come back to my computer, read from my moleskin notes and implement it.

No it doesn't suck money out, but it reduces the rate at which new money is created through borrowing.

Every time a loan is agreed, the value of the ${NATIONAL_CURRENCY} is diluted by a tiny amount. And that tiny dilution is amplified through the economy and has a proportionally larger effect on the price of end-user items which inflate to compensate.

Increasing interest rates is not a lever that directly affects things measured by the CPI, but the idea is that the effects will ripple through the economy and reduce the delta-v of their prices at the end of a very complicated series of gears and pulleys.
