The problem is that once rates hit zero people will just hoard cash like Keynes suggested with his liquidity trap. The only "funds" available are short term deposits. Nobody is buying certificates of deposits. When the bank issues a loan without a CD it has to create new liquid money, that is the only way.

The answer is quite simple, just keep going down with interest rates even if they are negative.
That is fully consistent with the loanable funds model.
Lolol, you're the best example I've seen of "hacker news guy meets ambiguities in real language usage, can't handle it".

> I feel like you're not getting hung up enough on the definition of a definition. This might or might not be true, just how like if I feel that April is cold, it doesn't make it winter.

Meet interpersonal linguistic negotiation. Since in most Northern places most people feel cold roughly between November and March, no your one personal experience doesn't matter. Just like 'tall' is a perfectly useful word, even though it doesn't have a precise meaning in terms of number of millimetres.

In Europa proper, Winter is the period of the year between Dec 22nd and Mar 21st. In the UK, we have 5 months of Winter and 7 of Autumn, that move around the year like Ramadan.

Not a miner. I do use a computer to calculate dumb stuff all the time for entertainment purposes.

I mean… Cyberpunk 2077 could run acceptably on an integrated 65W APU but instead I chose to crank everything on max with ray tracing through a 4090 just to see some dumb frames on a screen that are discarded at a hundred per second.

And I don’t ever remember having to ask permission to use the kW h I’m paying for.
Right but you pay the restaurant the full price of the meal in cash. The amount of cash circulated exactly equals the market price of the services provided. I'm not saying that's financial leverage.

Financial leverage happens if you and the restaurant would begin to clear debts in ways that mean you can enter into business for larger amounts than the cash you can pony up.

The whole ponzi-scheme is coming down in the next 5 years anyway.

Climate refugee waves, climate wars, working for worthless money to rent property the old generations pension funds hold hostage to keep the facade up for another year.

Why should anyone pour the limited good years they have into this, to appease a lifestyle reality that will be out of stock no matter what?

Why try to be part of the kings court and in favor, when they open a head bowling alley on the place de concorde?

I really do not get the appeal of this self-hypnotizing mindset. Do you think one can will reality into a different shape, by the powers of believe alone?

To be fair the blame isn't entirely on them, the government should know better, and the people voting should. This is yet another thing the market cannot and will not fix.
Interesting topic indeed.

I think which ever perpetrator executed the operation to destroy the pipelines know about these ways of detecting objects using various satellite imagery (surface only) and try to avoid being detected.

Question: what about sub surface data? Which detect anomalies at ground level of the area.
Question: who benefits?

Further more the inability of the various countries to work together is remarkable, at least in public. Trust no one?
Taking full responsibility would be liquidating his assets to make all customers as whole as possible, even if it leaves him destitute. Lack of responsibility/consequences for the capitalist class is the root cause for many of the social problems we have today.

It's not OK that we hugely reward taking risks to capital and then largely isolate the "risk"-taker from the consequences of failure when they materialize.
I imported a Panasonic x800 from japan to Canada in 2005.

Ran Symbian 2.0

I didn't even know Symbian was available on non nokia

Was very advanced for the time, everyone was impressed here as there werent any similar devices locally available.

This was my last phone before moving over to blackberry to get on the BBM bandwagon(after the x800 fell, and hit the push button opener and popped open the screen and cracked... With no locally available parts wasn't worth it to fix....).

Never had to do anything from the dev side, but the usability/functionality was steps ahead at the time
This last week has been a rollercoaster. I've been in crypto since a long time ago and have seen quite a bit, but this FTX implosion takes the crown. And to be honest, I don't think its over.
I would say start learning multisite wordpress and spin it up on your own sytem and you can basically have an entire network of websites and that all you would need more most clientele.
> nails in the coffin for mainstream support

People have short memories, further, people get caught up the hype. If Bitcoin's price starts to bounce, and especially if it manages to approach a new all time high, plenty of people will be on board, in fact even moreso, because the tagline will be that Bitcoin is resilient, it always comes back, it can overcome any crisis.

Furthermore, although it seems like a lot of people are talking about FTX, probably 90% of the people who know of Bitcoin are entirely unaware of this story. I own some crypto assets, and I had never heard of "SBF" and the only thing I ever knew about FTX was that it made an awful television commercial. Never thought about them ever since.
We have a pretty solid set of organisation roles for devops, dev and others across several tens of (maybe hundreds) of accounts. Our accounts are divided into prod and nonprod accounts, so if you want the devs to have less permissions in prod that’s perfectly possible.

The only thing we have to be careful is is cross-account assumerole chaining.

But really it’s a lot of work, and I guess a competetive advantage, and quite specific to every organisation, so nobody ever made something like that open source.
Yeah, it's usually −171°C there by this time.

Agreed. IN particular, William MacAskill[1] is worth particular interest. Closer to abstract low tier cult than serious philosophy. The fact he changed his name (his real name is William Crouch) to sound more like a marketable philosopher should be indicative enough to anyone with an ounce of sense that one should be guarded engaging with this supposed philosophy.

That so many people at FTX called themselves "EAers" or "subscribe to the philosophy of EA" screams charlatanism to me. That it became entwined with the Crypto community is no surprise to me.

It reminds me of the many many "churches" in Africa that tell people great fortune will come their way if they are loyal to this particular preacher or whatnot. [2] It is obvious to me those are a scam. Perhaps more akin to Scientology - creation of a VIP club - the less sense it makes the better?

I've tried to read about Effective Altruism and my conclusions are that it is immature gibberish and these proponents are not fully formed emotionally intelligent adults. [3]

Symbian never had a UI. Phone manufacturers were expected to build their own.
There were several; Nokia’s Series 60 would be the one most are familiar with. That sucked a lot. Nokia were terrible at software.

There’s probably a business lesson in there somewhere about how your biggest customer can become synonymous with your actual product, and you get ruined by association.
Just to add to this, fillets may seem trivial but they are a good example of the difficulties in parametric cad.

Fillets are added to edges, edges can be formed both by a single feature (say an extruded 2d shape) or through the interaction of two or more other features (think of two extrusions 90deg to each other interacting and forming an edge). They can also link together or become unlinked via changes.

Referencing these edges, and keeping track of that reference through changes to the parameters is fundamental to parametric cad. It's one of the areas that OpenCascade struggles with.

Here's an example of an effective setup:

* Have a separate AWS account for each developer that allows for experimentation without risking shared environments. Engineers can have admin access on their own account to enable rapid prototyping and experimentation.

* Have separate AWS accounts for separate services. Ideally a separate account per service/stage pairing. If you're even more mature in your cloud operational journey, you may go for one account per service/stage/region or per cell in a cellular architecture if you're really advanced. If you're just a small startup, maybe just go for a separate account for beta and prod stages.

* Because running services have their own account, the blast radius of an engineer modifying permissions is quite limited already. However, changes to infra (including IAM changes) should all be done through a CI/CD pipeline. Engineers can only change infra by submitting a PR to update the IaC definition and passing through your peer review and automated checks. Tools like AWS CDK with self-mutating pipelines where the pipeline itself is modeled via IaC are great for this.

* Use a higher level of abstraction to manage IAM permissions like AWS CDK. Manually figuring out the permissions needed is a nightmare and an exercise in frustration.

* Try to keep AWS credentials ephemeral with whatever third-party services you're working with.

* If you're using AWS CodePipelines, run all your pipelines in a separate DevOps account where all the pipelines live. Set a role that engineers can use on this account that lets them debug pipelines without mutating. If you're using Github actions or something else, you obviously need to guard permissioning of that other service and try to use decent practices for getting AWS credentials. In the case of Github, for example, use OIDC to assume ephemeral credentials to an IAM role rather than saving secrets of an access/secret key pair.

And we know now that Google wanted its own OS so it could scrape all the data it could from phones. That wouldn’t have been possible with Symbian.
You must be fun at parties. Things haven't "gotten" to this point. It has always been thus. Kindergarten definitions leave out many nuances.

Definitions are nearly always dependent on context, are nearly always fuzzy around the edges, and are nearly always subject to usefulness.

And then we aren't even discussing metaphors, hyperbole, pars pro toto, tota pro paribus, other kinds of metonymy, and more figures of speech.

Context made it perfectly clear what was meant here. It's a far more useful usage than the kindergarten level definition where winter starts at the winter solstice and not a day sooner.
It seems a bit dubious to trust twitter with my data anyway?

Mastodon at least is not trying to shove politics and celebrities down my throat.
You could, but Organisations predates heavy adoption of CDK. I imagine it also guarantees that the roles keep having the correct permissions.
Fair enough. Just wanted to make sure the take away wasnt that US companies cannot deliver services _at all_ to EU.

Just curious whats your product/service? And how is PII used (high level)? As a dev and sw architect, and strong supporter of GDPR, I think its interesting to (attempt to) find engineering solutions for the challenges posed by GDPR (and Schrems)
Yes and no.

When COVID more or less "left" corporate culture, a lot of US businesses wanted to go fully back to work or to make remote work a benefit, i.e., you'd take cuts elsewhere for the privilege to work remotely/from home.

While some of it is likely power-tripping on the part of managers, I suspect some of it is more complex involving expensive building leases and trying to justify costs, fear of "what happens if the culture shifts again and we need to find office space", which I do think is a reasonable concern, but not to the point that it should shut down remote work entirely.

Anecdotally, I do know quite a few higher management ones who were very upset by remote work; they liked the idea of having "their" employees in a single spot so they could check it at any time for various projects; some relented when after an honest talk they conceded they never really checked in person and did everything by chat/call/email anyways, but there were a few sticklers that just honestly believed "butts in chairs or we lose all productivity", even though 2 years of data from COVID times shattered this belief entirely.

Part of why I think the position was so predominant in the US was that the job market power was so vastly different there; in European countries, it was far more competitive for a company seeking candidates and this gave a lot more negotiating power for employees I think since there was certainly a job lined up for them, whereas in the US it was a bit more uncertain that you could get a position since there were so many more candidates than positions in many cases, so businesses had the ability to be far more exclusive and demanding.
Many see that crypto isn't actually needed for that. We have already implemented many ways to do it without crypto. Think of Africa, China and India.

What is actually needed is stability around the world which allows financial systems to operate. And crypto really has done nothing for this goal. Only positive side is to allow moving currency bit cheaper in some cases.

Navigable for a barge and navigable for a canoe are two very different things.

The Danube and the Rhine were the two major rivers that could be navigated by Romans and they were the borders of the empire for that reason: they were the only way to supply border garrisons efficiently. They also had the Nile which isn't _in_ Egypt, but _is_ Egypt.

China by comparison is three major rivers which change course frequently and violently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFsQoY32n5g
The OS should normally have no involvement in C++ exceptions, and that certainly isn't the case on any operating system except Windows, where you can request that exceptions are bridged with structured exception handling, but I honestly don't believe that is common anymore, and even if you do opt into that (which I will argue you should probably never do, though I've sometimes been shocked that people still give a shit about the MSVC ABI :/), I also do not believe it is going to add a direct runtime cost to the happy path on 64-but Windows (which is all that we are analyzing here anyway, as the legacy ABIs usually used for 32-bit Intel systems definitely had a non-zero cost) as I am quite confident it is also implemented with tables.

I think this article underestimates the inefficiencies in large, centralized systems where efficiency is not a goal, and incentives are weighted against it.

Famously, Facebook's iOS app is over 100 MB[0] and for Android, their engineers hacked the Dalvik VM because they had so many class definitions they were overflowing a 5MB buffer just for the definitions - and then, staggeringly, they bragged about this obscenity.[1]

I can only imagine their backend systems are a similar nightmare, that leads to nonsense like FB building its own data centers to run their photos-and-ads crud app.

This seems like a simplification. Crypto, like any currency, needs to be able to be easily converted to and from other currencies. I can walk up to thousands of money changers and exchange USD for Euros, Pounds, and plenty of small countries' currencies. Meanwhile it may be technically possible to do the same with crypto, virtually nobody is, and the places that do offer a conversion, like BTC ATMs, charge enormous fees.

The relation between this movie and the original book is quite unique actually:

>Verhoeven tried to read the novel but "stopped after two chapters because it was so boring ... it is really quite a bad book ... it's a very right-wing book." He had Neumeier summarize the narrative for him, and found it militaristic, fascistic, and overly supportive of armed conflict, which clashed with Verhoeven's childhood experiences in German-occupied Netherlands during World War II. Verhoeven determined that he could use the basic plot to satirize and undermine the book's themes by deconstructing the concepts of totalitarianism, fascism, and militarism, saying "All the way through I wanted the audience to be asking, 'Are these people crazy?'"

I would not be surprised if the free WA messaging is implemented by whitelisting the signaling ports and domains (XMPP or similar) which only handle text content and small inline attachments.

I have the suspicion that your situation is not really representative of software developers in general. It's great if it works for you but don't expect others to help you if they're not getting their share of that 2x.
I'm convinced decentralization is viable for local applications and services like offline document editors and Syncthing, somewhat so for geographically dispersed but closed systems like 1:1 DMs and group chats/video calls (Tailscale sharing might work for static sets of people like friend groups and polycules), but I'm not sure the moderation and inter-server conflicts are workable for publicly visible posts where you expect anyone on any server to be able to reply to people on another server.
The only reason discourse has degenerated is because you made it about the meanings of words. Everyone else on this thread is having a pretty productive conversation.
