Can someone explain why the rumor of cracked pipes and delayed restart of a terminal would cause the futures price to go down?

I would think that news of a supply constraint would cause the price to go up.

I think it would make sense to imagine the codebase as a graph of some sorts, and the number of bugs as a function of both the number of vertices and edges.

So, she lived in the apartment, and stayed there after he died?

Or did she live in another apartment, and when he died, she got his, better(?) apartment?

If someone dies and you get to stay in an apartment, that's not inheritance, just continuing to rent that apartment.

Aww, I was going to suggest changing the submitted URL to be the "/public" of Mastodon instances which allows previewing who's there and what they're talking about, but it seems theirs has it switched off: https://mastodon.archive.org/public is a 404
You could try something like REXX (it was a popular choice in the Amigas, and is used extensively in IBM mainframes). I could also humorously suggest JCL, but nobody likes it. When I log in to Hercules, I end up in TSO, which can be called a shell. All these are as far from a POSIX shell as I can imagine.

You may find inspiration in other non-Unix OSs such as MCP (Unisys still supports it), or GCOS and GECOS, still supported by Atos. One would say they are user-hostile shells, but I prefer to think they are extremely selective about their friends. I can say I never made the cut for any of them.
You can't say "more adoption" with a serious face and accuse someone else of making a bad faith argument. You are carefully limiting your definition of adoption. It would be just as valid to point out that CCS1 has vastly more adoption, by using manufacturer as the metric.

Me too. The Tesla plug was the only one that ever got stuck in the car. So I don't know if I'd say that J1772 is strictly inferior.
I'm not a fan of your examples because taking on leverage for fixed income assets is not the most common use of leverage, precisely because the rewards aren't that much better but the risks are so high. Also, "being a complete scam" is not the most common downside risk in leverage.

I think an easy example nearly anyone can understand is their mortgage. You put down $50k for a $500k house. The house goes up just 10% to $550k, if you sell you've doubled your money after repaying the $450k you've borrowed. Of course, if the price goes down 10%, you're completely wiped out.
>probably you haven't noticed this

>i find your contributions so far to the discussion of this paper profoundly disappointing

I'm not sure why you are so hostile, and why you think everyone except yourself is profoundly ignorant, but it's clear that you have some sort of world view where you're superior than anyone else you interact with. I doubt anything I say would convince you otherwise.

tl;dr: I found this conversation disappointing, too.
The easy answer is if you don’t have anyone you want to vote for: don’t.

I still vote, but much more selectively and I retired the belief I used to have that if you don’t vote you can’t complain. I have priorities, and I know for a fact there isn’t another human being on this planet, let alone one in my general locality that would match my voting preferences perfectly. Nothing wrong with prioritizing because the best you can hope for is good enough for government work.
Ok, thanks for clarifying, I wasn't sure if I needed to read something between the lines
I tried to use vscode but sublime keeps pulling me back. I love the performance and the ui doesn't distract me like some other editors do.
But it isn't for internal use, is it? It's fully federated and you can follow the accounts on there from every other server. Thry just don't allow everyone to create accounts on that server.
I had an idea to do something similar to this but with a story, where a random text character would be garbled (or maybe deleted) with every visit.

I wasn't sure how best to handle that on the backend side, not really something I've ever had to do before. Especially dealing with (possibly) full text fields and a bunch of people hitting up the website in a short period of time, possibly thousands at a time.

I could have just recorded visit counts, and have it randomly generate on the client side based on the visit count, but I wanted to keep it persistent for all viewers.
Being a firefighter, I am tangentially intimate[1] with construction methods for dwellings, be they commercial or private. I am fascinated with concrete and the myriad of ways it is formed. My nerdy side really wants to build a concrete 3D printer and print a compound for my family. My profession reminds me that building codes and laws are mostly written in blood and are codes/laws for a reason.

How could we speed up the process of adopting codes across the US? 1 hour to my south in Mexico, one can basically build anything they want in concrete and there really isn't a regulatory body that would stop them. The probabilities of earthquakes and hurricanes in that area are quite low, no really reason to build for snow loads, but definitely for wind. Yet, on the other side of that imaginary line, in the same desert with the same probabilities; Contractors must build houses that can withstand loads and forces that will likely not happen if the house was around for 200 years.

Todays homes are not generally built with concrete except for the slab on grade. They burn hotter and faster than anytime in the history of shelter.[2] This is mostly due to the contents we place inside, but a large part is the gluing of structural elements out of fractional lumber. We seal and insulate these newer houses up tight, because they have very little thermal mass, with petroleum based products that contribute to fire load as well.

Concrete would be a better choice for homes in the US, but its cost prohibitive due to labor and materials. I don't know for sure, but the price for building with concrete seems like it is mostly artificial. That is, using 8 x 8 blocks for walls seems excessive when compared to the layered 2 x 4 -> 1/2" OSB sheathing (only on corners) -> Foam/chickenwire -> Stucco sandwich. Why don't we see tilt-up concrete homes? Or columnar concrete homes? It all just moves so slowly...

[1] New phrase? I am not an architect or contractor, but I know my way around most building systems past and present to include mechanical, electrical and structural.

The position that war is bad and that reconquering some land isn't worth 10000s of people to die over. Most war in history end in negotiated peace treaty, that's just reality.
First, you’re dangerously wrong.

We’re one of the few states with both implied-contract and bad-faith codified as explicit exceptions to at-will, and we’re significantly more likely to resolve in favor of the employee than in most states because we actually mean them.

The only question is whether naysayers (usually management or people parroting what management said) convince employees that we’re strictly at-will and have no options if terminated, when we are not and often most certainly do.

Do you think the corporate expense of going through motions of PIPs for a month—and risking quiet quitting or even disgruntled employee retaliation in the meantime—would be a thing if they didn’t have to cover their own butts or risk a lawsuit they’d actually conceivably lose?

In states without these protections they generally just fire you. And I’m not even going to get into the protected class aspect where CA has many nuances, and “no reason” becomes awfully tricky to defend if challenged by the vast majority of workers who do fall within one.

So yes, realistically an employer needs a reason to safely fire you in CA.

That’s almost always quietly recognized and accommodated at our level via either a reason or a significant payoff out the door in exchange for a waiver of liability. We can sue the crap out of them and quite feasibly win if they don’t.

It’s only at the lowest level jobs where this gets completely ignored. That’s largely because employers are confident the min-wage folks aren’t going to sue them, same reason poor people get illegal leases around here that never get challenged.

Second, I never actually said we had special protection in my original post.

I said we had (among) the best protections, and that we provide the model for most other protective laws of this type in the USA. And I said it in the context that we were the high water mark for protection and even then the OP’s conjecture wouldn’t necessarily fall under it.

Think that’s all easily verifiable on your part. Not sure what else you think you’re disputing there.
Pretty easy problem to solve too - just scale up the static asset Kubernetes cluster‽

I agree with the premise of this article. You want a program to have as few lines of code as are required to satisfy the needs of stakeholders (especially customers and other operators of your software).

The size of the solution must not exceed the size of the problem it solves. You need to focus on the essence of the problem and make compromises based on what is most important. Keeping the lines of code count low is a worthy target.

There is a balance to be reached but devs today are far too permissive when it comes to complexity creep. It should be setting off alarm bells much sooner.
Increasingly over the last week or so I forget that I’m scrolling HackerNews and not Reddit when I read comments like OPs. I mean this literally and not in jest. Is anybody else noticing more low effort / group-think / karma-farming comments lately?
Tesla never had any intention of actually opening up their superchargers to non-Tesla vehicles. It runs strictly against their goal of selling more cars. That's why they're making an adapter to let their customers use the CCS networks, because otherwise the Supercharger network requirement starts to become a liability instead of an advantage.

My impression is that Alameda was also a legitimate business that also made a lot of money with a lot of leverage for a while, but eventually the tide turned or it had one bad leveraged trade and poof.
Maybe canonical's multipass is a good option. It creates Ubuntu VMs very quickly using hyperkit, has as they were containers with docker. It has some limitations but works pretty well overall.

On the landing page, is the image of sublime text supposed to be an animation? On mobile it’s just a picture of the text editor. I don’t see any picture of the product.
My gut feeling is it grows linearly with any actions over codebase that are not accompanied by both testing and real usage. Well, until tech debt comes into play.

But there are many ways to make it non-linear, e.g. one can build a nice high-level structure which becomes irrelevant when goals shift. Or one can sign up for a paradigm which requires better developers and deeper understanding.
It's a useful thing to keep in the back of your head to inoculate yourself against marketing shenanigans.

The basic underlying principle of a product/service should be communicable and relatively universal. The details are of how it's tailored to your specific situation should come with cons and unknowns in other situations.

If it's not communicable and/or sounds like there are no cons they're not being honest about what it is (intentionally or unintentionally).
This is fascinating. Do you know what ever happened to these projects?

I'll copy my other comment over:

I get your intent - that people don't understand what federation means. But you're completely ignoring that we all live with federated email servers. Federated cell phone carriers, too, for that matter.

This is honestly not that different.

I 100% get what your intent is, but you seem to 100% not get that this sentence was completely false:

> I can sign up for an email right now with a dozen different services and not one will make me complete a mysterious task like "choosing a server"

And the same way that you can't "create your email account first, and then pick a server later," is the same exact reason you can't "create your Mastodon account first, and then pick your server later."

It's literally the same reason.

And you still seem to be completely rejecting that concept. As though this is "just bad UX." It's fundamental to how both e-mail and Mastodon work.

They can't "fix it," the way you wish they could.

Sure, they might come up with something, but it would be inherently worse at some really important things it's trying to do. It wants to be federated. Just like email. And you seem to not have any understanding of that.

AND to be -mad- at the people who are trying to help you understand. As though we're purposefully wasting your time.
market making in a volatile instrument is not easy. when all instruments are .96 correlated it makes it harder to balance your book. the good thing is that its retail flow but just because its retail doesnt mean you won't lose money when the market jumps in one direction or another.
Refreshing every second and mentally averaging, I'm getting closer to 15-20 requests per second. But yes, only a badly designed static site should be crashing under that load (unless it's on a residential connection, perhaps it's ISP rate limiting?)
US has a large supply of natural gas and domestic prices are cheap. LNG prices are very high globally. The price discrepancy exists because there is not enough LNG export capacity. This is a very large LNG export facility. When it gets back on global LNG supply should increase and prices should fall. Domestic supply should decrease and prices should increase.
I think it was specifically about her CEO job. There might be other people who worked there who did technical stuff.

The comfort with risk part seems worse in hindsight. Obviously somewhat less comfort with risk would have been better.
We also have GPS time, which is TAI minus 19 seconds, which is probably the most "popular" monotonic time standard we have on the back of, well, GPS. Lots of choices!
Thank you for posting this. I'm excited to check it out. Hainbach's videos introduced me to this concept and I had no idea it was something that had been done before.
The critics who follow this space rather closely seem to suspect that Alameda was especially exposed and damaged by the Luna collapse. This should have been Alameda's end, but because FTX can create FTT tokens out of thin air and it is so easy to manipulate the price, it can create the illusion of solvency ("flywheel").

Presumably, SBF was hoping that the crypto winter would end soon, which would bring everything else massively profitable for them again, and then plug the holes he had.

> are encouraged to add context to the error message instead of "here is stack trace, fuck you user, you're not worth knowing what is wrong"

haha, so true. I almost always wrap errors at every level with addition context.
If it was worth doing, then it's worth explaining.

People that prefer try/catching large sections of functionality or want to skip verbose handling of errors often have not thought through the user or tester experience. Heck, even trying to recreate the issue/state from production.

if err != nil { return err }

vs

if err != nil { return fmt.Errorf("context here: %s: %w", action_type, err) } (or wrapping some custom app error with context for the trace)

Of course you don't want to leak private details, but often there is a public component that is worth adding. This also brings up the concept of dual-error chains where what you log and what you report to the client are different.

I red a bunch of financial books including some history of financial systems to learn to invest but also because I am just curious about how we got where we are.

It is interesting that the waves that we are experiencing are nothing new, everything has been repeating every 20-40 years for the past three centuries or more.

Yeah, bitcoin is nothing new. It is the roughly similar thing happening all over again -- people buying something they absolutely do not understand just because they see the value is going up. Investing is hard and here is this golden opportunity -- just put your money in and see it multiply. And for a long time this works because more people are putting their money in and expecting returns. Then suddenly for whatever reason the positive returns dry up (at the very least you have to run out of new capital at some point) and those same people who were only in to speculate now want to get their money back. But as the first are able to do it, the price starts to fall.

Then you get companies or individuals swarming nearby the stream of money because, hey, for every greedy person with capital you will find a greedy person without it. And lots of these people also want to get rich quick.

It really is just another pyramid scheme that lures in people who do not understand finances but want to get rich quick (and some who do understand but are just too greedy to pass on the opportunity or play with somebody elses capital), the difference being it looks way more legit and legal because of the number of investors and amount of capital.

The cycle length has something to do with how long people remember the previous painful lesson before they forget and do it all over again. Remarkably stable over centuries...
> Pay a company $10k in cash

Do you mean bank transfer?

Let’s say I buy a legal widget for $10K and I pay cash and I don’t plan to treat it as a business expense. On my side, I’m done, and any alarm that might be invoked is the problem of the seller, and probably dependent on their compliance with weakly enforced regulations.

For some classes of widget I might want a receipt, but definitely not for all. You can easily spend that much on a birthday dinner with your friends, if that’s your thing.

I don’t think anybody is arguing that cash is “entirely separated from financial institutions” but — even above $10K — it allows for the possibility (not the guarantee) of transaction privacy.

And yet they do relay on it everyday and it works well. So clearly it isn't worthless.
Let me push back on the notion that there are alternative explanations besides increased concentration of atmospheric CO2 and other greenhouse gases for the current rapid changes in climate. It's one thing to say that we should distrust the complicated models that try to simulate the entire Earth in sufficient detail to predict exactly what the temperature change will be and what the impacts will be in each region. That stuff is genuinely hard to predict and I won't be surprised if the models get lots of things wrong. But the basic mechanism by which higher CO2 concentrations enable to atmosphere to retain heat better is dead simple. Heat is lost from the ground and atmosphere by low frequency photons that radiate away into space. Many of the photons, especially those emitted from the ground and lower parts of the atmosphere will be scattered by gas molecules in the atmosphere, and CO2 is one of the gases that is particularly good at this. Scattering means that the photon's direction changes randomly, which means that there's a good chance that it will be redirected to be heading back down towards the ground, rather than out into space. So an increased number of scattering events improve heat retention. Adding more CO2 to the atmosphere increases the number of of scattering events and thus results in less heat being lost to space, which results in a higher average* temperature for the Earth. We can debate what the exact consequences of all this will be, but saying it isn't a result of humanity burning large quantities of fossil fuels is to me tantamount to an admission that you don't understand physics.

*(Technically, since thermal radiation goes as T^4 times emissivity and some other stuff, what I really mean is a higher value of T^4 averaged across the surface area of the Earth and weighted by emissivity. And even this is an oversimplification, since not only can heat be lost from the ground, but also the atmosphere iteself. But the basic picture of "planet gets warmer" is still correct.)
Like now or when it started?
