And we're lending this money to high school students who often have no sense of what it means. These are all amounts that most students have never had to handle before, and they'll be repaid when students are at jobs they've never previously had making more than they could possibly imagine. The whole thing is probably so abstract for them that a lot probably don't grasp what the difference between $8,000 a year tuition and $40,000 a year tuition _actually_ means for their day to day lives.

On top of that students are sold the idea that, as the above poster said, "you get what you pay for," and that cheaper schools are somehow worse and will mean they'll earn less money. If you're getting into debt to increase your earning potential anyway, it makes sense that you would try to maximize things. But you're 17, and might not realize that these adults who are in positions of power are likely misleading you.

Also, honestly, a lot of 17 year olds don't seem to be able to grasp the idea that debt is something you actually have to pay back (a lot of adults even don't seem to grasp that). What do people think would happen if they gave every 17 year old a credit card? Yet their financial competence is somehow expected to be completely different if we give them a much larger loan?
I don’t know that I’d compare Mark of Elon’s successes to that of Einstein. Einstein’s contributions to this world tower above theirs.
Why not a dedicated phone? A small app like https://github.com/mendhak/gpslogger and use it in airplane mode. Add a prepaid SIM card so that you can use it as a backup in case of emergency.

That's basically what I'm doing to record my bike rides, with the exception that I leave the display and mobile internet on, since I use it as my bike computer. In my case it lasts around 3 hours, but the screen is at max brightness and there's a continuous websocket connection to my server, GPS is recorded in realtime, accelerometer and magnetic field multiple times a second.

So I guess that if I'd only record GPS once a minute with the screen off and no mobile connection that battery would last for more than a day.

You could also use it as a camera.

Plus, when you get home, you connect it to wifi and let it upload the data to your server.

I mean a cheap phone with a big battery.
The average annual net price is $26,482, but it was also significantly below sticker price 22 years ago as well. $38k is not low for modern tuition (it's in fact well above average -- though almost exactly average for private liberal arts schools).

I have the feeling that you're looking only at elite institutions. At the time I was in college, the place came in around #100 on the list of top liberal arts schools in the country, which while not especially shabby, also wasn't in any way elite. In comparison, the one elite university that I'd applied to back then was $36k/year for tuition, and is now $59k/year. Surprisingly, its tuition has grown at a slower rate.
Yeah, Samsung somewhat recently started assembling phones in India, but they are a lot lower build quality compared to their Vietnamese or SK made units. Probably within a year or two India factory will catch up on quality, but unlike Samsung (who have a lot of budget models) Apple can't afford to ship internationally bad quality iPhones for a couple of years.
"Most people would agree that attending a 6 week bootcamp shouldn’t entitle somebody to a 200-300k job. And it won’t in the near future."

People agree with that because it's true, developers landing those kinds of jobs are people coming out of strong universities (Stanford, Berkeley, etc), already have connections, or are senior level positions.

Nobody comes out of a code camp having just learned react and lands a 250 K position. Not sure where you got that information from but that's a serious outlier.
There are many things you can do this way, the terminology “cold soak” used in the parent comment is a good starting point, there are lots of resources online with ideas and techniques for cold soak backpacking meals: https://sectionhiker.com/cold-soak-no-cook-backpacking-meals...

I am an avid backpacker and have heard a lot of folks talking positively about this, but haven’t given it a try myself just yet.
for CI have you tried to use buildkit persistent runners with caching + https://github.com/LukeMathWalker/cargo-chef ?
I think the real power is in learning keybindings, either emacs or vim. You'll be able to use those shortcuts everywhere -- your IDE, shell, web browser.
U.S. policy officially considers it as a part of China (i.e. the ROC). That is de facto not a viable reality for many decades now, but it is the de jure legal fiction. As such, your criticism of the GP is incorrect. Because they were correct in asserting "According to official US policy, which is the One China policy, Taiwan and mainland China are the same country", Washington just disagrees with Beijing which that same country is.
A Keurig machine is just an electric kettle with an electric pump inside of it.
The root question is “How was the moderation unfair?”

Examples were provided. If you do not doubt their honesty, then you agree that unfair moderation took place.
Maybe start out not editing and just publishing your raw notes if you can. If people express interest, that might incentivize you to start editing. Basically prototype your writing.

Also, I find editing easiest with some time between writing and editing. Time away allows me to digest my own thoughts more and also makes my writing less precious to me. I sort of become a reader to my own posts and find it much more palatable to edit at that point
> I have no political leanings

I am rather incredulous at this statement but if you are being truthful, please help me arrive at this same locality. The closest I can manage is all of my political leanings are derivative of those who raised me. I wish I could be more neutral, objective from my own observation, existence.
yeah, I'm sure there's plenty such claims that can be proven wrong. Unless it's already a well-known fact in the field.

Like in archeology, the "oldest ... to be ..." is often very well known because it has direct consequences for their methodologies and paradigms

Either way, I don't see why you would write off a whole bit of research for something that was probably just meant to be a side-comment to bring in some additional context for people outside the field
We might see something in the coming week[s]. Probably it will be part of some Böhmermann shows or similar, then it spreads to the masses, if at all.

IIRC back when computers were a fair amount more expensive in the early 00s, eMachines and some other ultra low cost computing platforms came supported by installed adware for extremely low costs - I bought one at that time as it was the only machine I could afford to buy, and there also was ad-supported dial up Internet you could access (NetZero et al.) I reformatted the disk, installed a Windows 2000 Pro copy I had to it, and got a cheap tower from it.

Perhaps all is old is new again, but I can’t imagine this model leading to significant growth in today’s market. PCs are vastly more commoditized than they were then; my local supermarket sells low-end Windows and Chromebook machines for very little, and refurbished/recycled business machines with Skylakes can be had for $150 on eBay. If people want inexpensive computing platforms there are many more options and this doesn’t even include ultra cheap tablets or prepaid Android devices.

Here’s a paper from 2004 that explains it: https://escholarship.org/content/qt2t03k647/qt2t03k647_noSpl...
So happy to hear you’re giving CG a shot as well! That attitude and image of “Campfire Bach” is excellent, are you practicing BWV 999 Prelude in Dm yet? That was my first intro to Bach - such a wonderful tune, and a little easier than other Bach pieces for guitar.

I’ve heard really great things about Mearns’ arrangement of the Chaconne (which I’m tackling now, against my better judgment). I gave it a very brief read and thought it was interesting with campanella fingerings, but thought the change to E minor is a little too out there for me right now. I might take another look now, though! Thank you for the reminder :)
Sounds like you should have no issue sharing these alleged videos or at least proof of their existence. Or any of your sources. I’m also not sure why Hunter’s well-documented and acknowledged addiction is such a fixation for the right.

I’m done man. Have a good one. I’ll gladly read any sources you send along.
> Addition is move and multiplication is also a move. a + b move from 0 a step then b steps. a * b is move a step b times.

By "move" do you mean adding 1? If so, then no. Consider, for instance, the complex numbers: multiplication by i isn't any sort of iterated addition.
There was that time I scanned all the devices in the Netherlands because… it’s a small country and easier to scan than a big country.
They're both light waves, and it's for the same reasons (the medium/waveguide stores and releases energy).
> Almost monospaced: the perfect fonts for writing

The article doesn’t use the font it is extolling the virtues of, except for illustration. I found that interesting.

Also, there is something that gets under my skin about using anything other than monospaced to write code, as was one of the demo’s. I would genuinely be fine with writing code in a monospaced Arial or Times, but even courier-semispaced makes me shiver inexplicably.
> why do they have luggage at their place of employment?

Because it's also their place of residence.
I think I'll go look at forks of the Mastodon/Pleroma code, see who's working on a clustered mega-server to give people a more Twitter-like experience at one place instead of relying entirely on federation. Then again, maybe the people doing that are not being so obvious about it. Pretty sure there's someone, though. Probably even a VC or two throwing money at them.
Ok exactly - in addition to keurigs /nespressos etc mentioned (which I will refuse to buy) - for years the predominant coffee making apparatus in the US has been the automatic drip coffee maker.

French press, pour over, chemx are all niche.
But your original post said:

> I still, after all these years, hold the belief that facebook failed to innovate because the engineering interview is based on memorization. Having worked with those types of engineers, they can absolutely build exactly what is needed.

I think the fact that so much engineering innovation has come out of Facebook absolutely disproves your thesis. Also, while I've interviewed for Amazon (but not FB), I don't think Amazon's technical interview questions were really any different from any other big tech companies I've interviewed at. They certainly didn't seem to optimize for any sort of "innovation" in their tech questions (to be clear, I'm not sure how you'd do that).
In the FAQ they say sign up isn't mandatory. What browser are you using?
Nobody really knows, but we can safely say that a distributed ledger has to be part of the solution.
Yeah, using non-Apple monitors with a mac is a pain. Try "Retina Display Manager" - https://github.com/avibrazil/RDM - as it allows you to switch to the sharper HiDPI resolutions supported on your monitor.
I was very confused by this article until I realized it was written in a myth/fact structure.

The headings are not claims the author is making or that the article supports.

The headings are common misperceptions, which each subsequent section refutes.

If the point of the article is, as it seems, that people should go ahead and update, then yes; Apple expects people to run only the latest version, and people should go ahead and update. If that’s not possible, they risk suffering issues not addressed until later releases, which is true of course of virtually all software.
the number of people asking about and requesting DNSSEC is increasing all the time

The number of people not requesting it is increasing all the time too.
We all want the place like that to exist, in theory. Until one fateful day when an insurrection organized there is successful.
I think it was reasonable before vaccines existed and when we thought there was a chance of wiping COVID out. But it's endemic now and vaccines are readily available.

In a vaccinated population, are you still saving tens of millions of lives? And what's the cost of locking people down? Here in the US lockdowns were much less thorough and I think we'll still be paying the price for decades wrt mental health + child development.
Yahoo is still humming along too.

None of those companies have any real success to show for themselves. They haven’t met the hype that Musk has put on them or shown any real progress in reaching that hype.

I can at least understand you saying it might be too early on something like Neuralink, but I don’t understand calling Solar City a success. Musk had to bail it out with his other company in a deal shady enough to trigger lawsuits.
Ye great idea ! Will definitely look into updating the logic to implement this
I’m willing to overlook all that. My worldview gives self made successful men a LOT of leeway before I care.
Bonus point: What are the highest regarded colleges in the US? The Ivies(with some notable outliers). What is it that ties them together?

I don't have much experience with ES, but I remember trying Solr a few years ago and it was relatively simple to get running on a single VM. It is also using Lucene at its core, so it might be worth a try.
What is Mastadon / Fediverse? I read the intros and wikipedias, but I still don't get it.
> Consider a program in which an array was accessed based on the index provided by some user input -- how could this ever be proven to never go out of bounds?

In fairness, the approach to similar operations in Rust is usually by returning an Option or a Result, so it is arguably counterintuitive that a few specific operations like array indexing panic instead.

(you can do Vec.get(), but normally the "safe" behavior is the default and the "unsafe" behavior is optional and more verbose, e.g unwrap)
Which is scary because as more of this happens, there will be less reason for China to be nice.

Once there's no real reason for them to play nice with the west, we're going to see more problems.
Thanks for the resources !
Not the waste heat from the power plant.
This is just because You using cheap electronics, for which cost of production is too important.

I have experience in past, with very expensive products, and they where perfectly quiet.

Unfortunately, for some reason, looks like it is global progress slowdown, such compromise-less production near extinct, and each year it is harder to find perfect products.
What does China know about COVID-19 that the rest of us do not?

Why put in place such a severe policy of forced internment, in response to very few cases, when cheap and plentiful vaccines are available?

(Never mind that mRNA vaccines have never been approved for use in China, which is mind-boggling, given that they're proven to be safe and effective for preventing serious illness or death from COVID-19.)
Stats showing low average earnings for authors is somewhat skewed by nonfiction authors. suspense, fantasy, young adult fiction can pay well.Non-fiction books are more numerous and niche compared to fiction books, which are typically intended for large audiences.
I have not used the LSP directly, but Python's LSP uses Jedi under the hood, the same code as VS Code's official Python extension - it is very good.

JetBrains put in lots of effort but they are just one company - the power of LSP is that the whole community (including companies like Microsoft) are building a single tool that all IDEs and editors can use. Granted I hit a couple of bugs as it is under heavy development but I think they'll win out in the long term.
> Fortran is easier to use than C/C++ for scientific computing

You had me at “Fortran is easier than C++”.
Can it be used like a kettle - ie can it rapidly heat up a quart of water without a coffee residue taste? No, it cannot.

Just because they both heat water doesn’t make them similar.
PRO TIP: Don't pontificate about things you are not an expert on. You usually are missing a lot of context and detail and if you are right it will only be by accident.

College is too expensive, but it's not because people who work at universities are overpaid.
Lol, cans of tuna. I laugh because the was a brief while that I was eating far too much tuna, having realized how cheap and lean a source of protein it was -- only to realize a few weeks later that you really are advised to avoid eating it more than once a week or so, at least with any regularity, thanks to the presence of high levels of mercury these days. Now I really want to see a post apocalyptic film featuring mercury poisoned lunatics running around in a Cormack McCarthy landscape.

There's a huge chasm between "disrupting an already inefficient space industry" and "living on Mars".

We barely have the capability of living long term on Antarctica, and it has plentiful water, oxygen, gravity, a magnetic field, and doesn't have lethal radiation. Until I see a 100K population colony on Antarctica, I'll be unconvinced that we even have a prayer of building a 1K population colony on Mars.
I’m a raging sexist myself. I want women back in the kitchen- subservient and disenfranchised.

But I don’t want to see my views in wider society since it would lead to a shitty life for a lot of people.

The difference between me an you is you want society to return to being evil and you’ll do whatever it takes to get there. Disgusting.
I think if it isn’t now it will be in China. It wouldn’t surprise me if this was a retaliatory move for the recent chip ban. No evidence of that whatsoever, pure speculation.
It is known as Foxconn City where workers all live on campus, good article from 2017 for more context https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/jun/18/foxconn-l...
Yep great idea will try and update the logic to implement this !
I put the pasta in the water immediately, not waiting for boil. I also don't time it. You can see and feel when pasta is cooked.
He's just trying to make me happy by telling a beautiful fantasy tale

"And you'll have a yard without committing to a 3 million dollar investment!"

Oh well, back to patching the grout on my dilapidated million dollar shithole condo..
Maybe if all these large tech companies get rid of the fat, we will get less cosmetic "updates"... these engineers don't even know what to do with their time.
> I need to try harder to eat more beef.

Definitely. The less red meat eaters the better, so do your best to eat as much as you can.
How hard for a trillion dollar company to build their own infrastructure in the U.S. and do it relatively cost effective?
> Smartphones are just a tool, like any other, and can be used productively or unproductively.

Are you allowed to carry any tool you want in school? If it has a real reason to be used in school then sure, but that's not the case for most student.
Just wait for the Anti Defamation League or another partisan organization to release a dynamic blocklist of Mastodon servers to allow leftist admins to outsource all their moderation decisions. Leave it to the Twitter secessionists/expats to build a whole layer of centralization and control on top of a decentralized, federated system.
Thanks ! I hadn't thought of that will definitely add this in
Yes that sounds unfair. I'd like to be able to review the cases to see it with my own eyes, so we have the proof to say unequivocally "they are lying to us".
It's a meme. there is no such thing as federation. when every server is hosted on infrastructure owned by a few big tech companies. theres nothing federated at all about any of it. only way federation or decentralization can work is if everyone is hosting nodes from home. but people don't want to do that so...
I'm American and learned about electric kettles during trips to Asia. They are definitely handy, even at 110V. We make our daily coffee in a French press, so the electric kettle is a no-brainer.
Actually reverse cycle air conditioners are said to have a heating efficiency of over 100%, but what they really do is to move the heat from one point to another. It's all about definitions; if you define the system as your room, it will be more than 100% efficient. If your system is the universe, then it's always 100%.

By the same logic, yes, your hypothetical statement can be rephrased as "if you already have boiling water, cooking pasta doesn't require any energy".
Today I saw this great video of London in the 1960s, and I was struck by how many people were hanging out in the streets: https://old.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/yn09ns/fashion_in_1...

I'm born late 1980s and I've never seen so many people out in the streets just chatting outside of parties and village fairs.
> Apple is going to have to invest (subsidize)

These terms should not be used interchangeably, the meaning is totally different. You expect to see financial returns from investment
Put your pasta in with cold water in a skillet with just enough water to cover. By the time the water boils, the pasta is cooked. Save even more co2, cook faster.
I think this is a little different from the fake recession talk in 2020, where HR and thrifty managers tried to scare people into accepting less money

There are still great jobs out there, but you can't just bang out a day of Leetcode and collect a batch of $600k offers at the moment
Damn, thanks for telling me. I thought it was just Brave acting weird. Apologies for wasting your time, Slater.

If you didn’t have any faith in the mechanisms you had to mitigate COVID-19 pharmaceutically, you would act in much the same manner.

Sinovac may just not be that good over time, or maybe it’s just a pride thing in which we have a political leader staking heroic, superhuman claims on a Zero-COVID strategy.
TBH I have no idea what you are talking about. There have even been a bunch of articles along the lines of "the social network is dead". That is, Facebook is all about who your friends are and your overall social network. TikTok has none of that - it's about following and finding content that is entertaining, not that an old friend just had a baby.

Heck, a big part of TikTok was Musical.ly, an app for lip syncing videos. That was a huge stroke of luck/foresight because it gave TikTok a lot of the music rights deals they would need to allow people to put videos to music.

Are you really arguing an app around individual videos set to music (which, in my experience, is still the vast majority of TikTok videos) is somehow an "incremental product change" to a friends-based social network?
About 50% of 80+ Chinese citizens are unvaccinated.

It’s really quite amazing China hasn’t forced them to vaccinate.
My first thought was that it’s shocking to see an announcement like this on a Sunday. Then I realized they might be hoping the news gets buried. But with the election on Tuesday, I think that would have happened either way!
