This is oversimplifying complex investments to a point where no one is investing in anything anymore, just a lot of hand waiving a money exchanging hands

Bureau of Labor Statistics could announce a new equation for the CPI next month. Which means the inflation will be calculated to be much lower than everyone expected.

If you're betting on Bureau of Labor Statistics press releases, you just lost your bet just because a human decided to word things differently.

If you're investing in a complicated financial bundle, like actual contracts to buy sell oil, wheat, stocks. Then you could still be winning. Because a single politician can change your win to a loss when you're betting on words (like Inflation as calculated by a person in the US government), but a single human can't lose you money when you're investing in actual equities

This is more like a roulette table than an actual investment

"There's no algorithms [...] Read what comes across your dashboard"

I love Neil Gaiman's works, but he's no technology wizard - he's an author trying to surf this insanity we call social media.

And that's OK. There are algorithms, yet his advice is still sound.
I think he specifically means “timeline algorithms”.

In any case, it doesnt really seem like he knows anything about this sort of stuff.
Obviously not because the intent and the message behind those words would be clear. They would be choosing those words because they want to discriminate against non-believers by branding them as inferior.

There is no good faith argument to be had in why a religion would choose "heathen" as a description of a non-believer unless they mean it in a negative way. The message itself is clearly bad and the chosen language reflects it.

That's not the same as me calling a pregnant person a "pregnant woman" or someone else calling them a "uterus having pregnant person". The meaning in both cases is a biological female human who is carrying a baby in pregnancy. You can find people who will get offended by either phrase, but why? I don't get it. Neither phrase is meant to be disparaging or trivializing towards other people. If you hear "pregnant woman" you should assume that "woman" is meant in a biological sense and not a gender sense.
Primarily it was because I view "Chipotle/jack in the box/whoever sickened thirty people" to be a different case, with different acting incentives and systems than "Store brand meat full of parasites". I am claiming that fast food supply chains are distinct enough from consumer oriented supply chains that they cannot reflect on each other.

This is not the case for beyond meat, as it's still a small business that is distinct from fast food companies and serves both companies and consumers.

Am I wrong in this thinking?

> Meta/FB for years and have never touched user-facing code or ads stuff

Does that really matter in the end? If you're against writing code for ads/optimizing for quick dopamine hits, is it really so different to be writing the code that shows the ads vs the code that sets up the infrastructure to serve the ads? Or even infrastructure to support the developers who write the code for the ads?

If you don't want to support the ad-driven internet, don't work for companies who's entire business model is extracting as much data from users as possible in order to show the "right" ads.

I used to play at low level but officially sanctioned Magic: The Gathering tournaments at a local shop, and there was no official policy for deciding who would play first, My understanding is that this is even the case at higher-level prize tournaments, and I think generally only high profile matches are live streamed (e.g. ones with well-known players or the final few rounds after most people are eliminated), and I read an article from a professional player a few years back about how sometimes people try to get away with things when the traditional "high roll" method is used (i.e. each player rolls their own die and the highest roll goes first, with repeats for ties), like bringing extremely large dice that essentially don't roll so much as just flop once, making it easy to toss in a way to force a given result. I'd also seen people use "evens and odds", where one person calls even or odd and the other rolls a die, with the choice of whether to go first going to the person who called if they were right and to the roller if not, but this still gives the person rolling some influence if they're unscrupulous. The article proposed that having one player call evens or odds but having _both_ players roll would eliminate any ability for cheating (assuming both players roll at once), since even being able to choose your result exactly would not be able to affect the chance of the sum being even or odd without knowing what your opponent would roll.

> So for Ether to generate even something like a meager 3% yield to beat inflation

Inflation eats away at a rate of 3%, so to beat inflation Ether needs to beat a -3% real yield, not a 3% real yield. A 3% real yield would mean that Ether appreciates at 6% compared to an asset that inflates at 3%.

> you need to charge on the order of 1%-3% for each transaction, which is orders of magnitude over what is expected or competitive.

That figure depends entirely on the total number of transactions and the fee paid by each transaction. It doesn't depend on the percentage of money transacted that is charged as a fee for each transaction. For many transactions, "percentage charged" is actually meaningless because the transactions don't even involve Ether at all aside from the payment of the fee. Ethereum is a virtual machine that charges for compute time.

> It follows then that the vast majority of the holders of Ethereum, and the backers of the scheme themselves especially, do not expect to earn from the fees, rather they speculate on the token itself, they hold it because it will appreciate in the future.

The vast majority of stock buyers do not expect to earn from the eventual dividends, rather they speculate on the stock itself, they hold it because it will appreciate in the future. That's just a feature of speculative financial markets - despite that, stocks plod along all the same.

> the preference of the vast majority of non-speculators is to hold on to currency and near money substitutes for periods much larger than it would allow holders of ether to earn trading fees commensurate to the risk of holding ether

Among other things Ethereum is a money transmitting service, not unlike PayPal. If we look at the money stock velocity of dollars on PayPal, I'm sure we would see that it is orders of magnitude higher than the general supply of all dollars out there.

> if the fees are negligible compared to the economic activity that is mediated

Hopefully blockchain scaling techniques will mature, and blockchains will be able to benefit from the economy of scale, charging fractions of a penny each for billions of transactions. That's the path this tech will have to walk if it wants to provide more value.
> I don't wanna take them for the rest of my life

That's not the biggest worry. The largest psychological hurdle is seeing how much better your brain is with an illegal medication, and accepting the very uncomfortable truth that a pill that's often maligned, misunderstood, abused, and controlled is the difference between a fulfilling life and a slow spiral into the Abyss. Your fortune is not completely in your control.

As someone that has relied on himself all of his life, this idea still is very hard to live with.

> Before Kalshi, markets that allowed you to trade on economically relevant events were illegal or unregulated.

Totally untrue. PredictIt was legal and regulated and well-loved for many years, operating with the permission of the CFTC under a no-action letter. Then Kalshi hired former CFTC commissioner Brian Quintenz and soon, PredictIt was suddenly deemed by the CFTC to have committed still-unenumerated violations of the no-action letter.

This is a rotten way to do business and shame on YC for being involved in it.

So GCC is defining one behavior for overflow in the optimizer (assuming there is no overflow so algebraic expressions can be optimized) and generating code that behaves differently (a+b will wrap around for signed and unsigned types)

When I was working on this problem with Fluid Framework, we did a few interesting experiments with "owned objects" and centralized ACL objects. I believe the team primarily implemented centralized ACL because that implementation works for many enterprise use cases.

With a centralized schema provider, you run a connected node on a trusted server and reject changes that are out of schema or should not be accessed by a user.

An owned object is an object where a user (or user group that votes via quorum) that owns the object can veto changes to the object. The changes are temporarily applied until accepted by the owners. I haven't dug deep enough into this BFT implementation to know how our model would map to this model.

> This is a damning with faint praise.

Well, considering a lowly Seiko 5 can always point to the correct minute within some (+/- 15) seconds without adjusting it ever is a remarkable achievement if you ask me. A top of the line server has more drift than that gearbox.

> But in an absolute sense, they are simply poor timekeeping devices.

If you want sub second accuracy to time F1 races, yes. For catching your metro, no.

> A normal quartz watch is +/- 20 seconds/month, which is significantly better. There are high-accuracy quartz watches which are +/- 5 seconds/year.

Yet, their batteries tend to go flat on the most inconvenient times, and without warning if you're not using a higher end movement.

> Replacing a battery every few years will cost you less than a full mechanical rebuild every decade.

Every 2-3 years to be precise, unless you use an entry level Casio digital wristwatch, which will last a decade.

> A silly flex. More WR comes with more weight/size. Divers mostly use diving computers now.

It's not a flex. A 30 bar watch will just last. It's not about just WR.

You don't need to like automatics, that's OK. If I want utmost precision, I'd wear a GPS enabled Casio. However, for some of us out there, using these things are about appreciating the craft and engineering going into these things. Like vinyl, fountain pens and mechanical keyboards.

No need to be frantic about some seconds unless you're synchronizing server farms for TLS, TOTP or other stuff. Even life is not that rigid about timing. That rigidity is something we enforce on our lives.

Use what you enjoy, get your favorite hot drink and relax. :)
I'm amused that Tumblr is becoming a frontrunner as Twitter replacement.

I'm not 100% convinced by it, but it _seems_ like a better proper replacement than Mastodon (sorry FOSS people, but... centralized logins is a big deal compared to federated spaces).

At least, its the closest thing I've seen discussed that seems to do a similar job to Twitter. Sharing comments / images / short form video with a large community of communities with a somewhat trusted login / identity

Mastodon doesn't fix that, because Alice@instance1.com doesn't necessarily mean you're talking to Alice. It could be a malicious Alice. Maybe the "real" Alice is Alice@instanceAlpha.com. Twitter used to have blue-checkmarks for this, but that identify management seems to be getting destroyed by the current chaos, and people are rightfully wondering how to get a trusted identity for their discussions.
This was something our lawyers recommended. I'm not sure exactly why we do that, but my guess is to emphasize certain parts.
I see the logic but don't agree.

Even if Mars or another planet were to survive the destruction of Earth, a stand-alone colony or space station would be doomed. At best I think we're at least 100 years off for any long-term self-sustained space colony... and it's quite possible we'll be sidetracked significantly if the climate causes widespread migration and famine as expected.

If we can't solve exponentially simpler earth-based problems, then I think we have no business in expanding, and would be unlikely to succeed regardless.

I support space exploration and development, but putting more resources outward when we have so many inward problems feels like a fool's errand.

We can work on both, but one's a much more imminent danger.
I would disagree with all the reasons. I understand that it's some real problems the mentioned services solve for you, but I can easily point to a person who has none of those problems. Like my grandma. She doesn't see any point in any of the mentioned products. Even the coffee maker. So we must agree that it depends on the person and is not an objective criterion. Same for blockchan/defi/evm/etc. Some people argue that it solves some of their problems, and you may disagree with them, but it doesn't make their point invalid.

I can go with refusing the points you said about the mentioned products. Not because I want to argue, but because it's really not the reason and problems it solved for _me_. I just question myself why I use them and have no answer.

1) Rel. Amazon. I can go to the seller's website directly. I guess I used Amazon because they are so good at marketing, so they are the first to go. But I kind of agree that it solves the problem of simplicity/easier access because a seller's website may have a clumsy website. Some people say that something similar is solved for them by Defi.

2) For AWS, I don't use anything you mentioned. It sounds interesting, like spinning many instances, but I never witnessed it being used like that. Except for instances where someone was playing with the tech (and you can apply it the exact same way to EMV). Also, recently I played with Kubespray, a tool to easily roll out a Kubernetes cluster on a bare metal, and now I don't see a reason to use AWS or another cloud provider. Bare servers + Kubernetes is a way to go imho. Maybe the real reason people use AWS is b/c they simply don't know alternatives?

3) For Zoom, I disagree because I am not even sure we always needed to call, honestly. I mean, we have an email and slack, so what's the point of wasting everyone's time on a call. It's just a routine now.

Again, not arguing. Just trying to say that there could be multiple points of view. And if something works one way for someone, it may be completely useless and even stupid for others.
Do you think Amazon will eventually discontinue first party products ? Like essentials, basics etc
