I don’t disagree that the quality of many goods is much higher, but when you start looking at what the lowest quartile can actually afford to consume the results are pretty starkly worse than they have been in our relatively recent past.

A huge chunk of lower income is dedicated to housing, to an extent that many cannot actually afford housing at all.

Non-violent for whom ? I see indirect violence for sure here

That's kind of the issue. Daimler's EV car project is considered a flop because it's only alive due to Daimler being able to lose money from it.

If they started earlier they would have been able to earn some of that money that went to Tesla, could have ironed out the issues while EVs were still considered in something like an open beta where owners had a lot more tolerance for issues and their processes would have become more agile naturally due to the competition with Tesla. Not to mention they could have improved their image as a luxury EV manufacturer by being one of the first.

You can even see the panic about being late to the game on Daimler's part. Their first gen EVs was made using ICE chassis which logically could not compete with cars designed from the ground up to be electric.

Have you looked at the way the ceo and other execs are compensated? I assume it is based on stock performance and there is your answer.

>Peter Wennink made €4,820,000 in total compensation as Co-President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Management at ASML Holding in 2021. €1,020,000 was received as Total Cash, €3,537,000 was received as Equity and €263,000 was received as Pension and other forms of compensation.

The term for this is a positive feedback loop.

>Positive feedback in amplifier
If the feedback signal is in the phase with the input signal, the effective input to the circuit is increased and this type of feedback is called positive, regenerative or direct feedback. It provides increased gain but it also increases distortion and leads to poor stability of gain.

In 2013, Microsoft have actually asked US SDNY (and by extension the federal government) whether there is a legal basis for a warrant issued since that the data is in Ireland (and was never brought to the US), and Microsoft thinks that since the subsidiary controls the data instead of themselves US SDNY (and FBI) would need to activate Irish MLAT services. It actually went to the Supreme Court (https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/584/17-2/), and the result? Well, the Congress have passed the Clarifying Lawful Overseas Use of Data Act (https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/PLAW-115publ141/pdf/PLAW...) that basically states that the US has extraterritorial jurisdiction on all data held by US companies, making the case moot.

>UBI would replace other programs, like social security and food stamps

So UBI will take money away from the poor and the elderly? Median Social Security is already $15K based on numbers a few years old and will inevitably be higher with inflationary effects 2021-2022.

And that's not including Medicare, which is another huge program that targets the elderly.

In fact, something like 45% of Federal spending is targeted at the retired (who only represent something like 15% of the population).

You can't fund UBI by having it replace other programs without asking people already benefiting from those programs to take gigantic haircuts.

Huh? There are a TON of local laws that would be enforced to prevent the overloading and devastation of local resources, in addition to the humans freed having common sense and being able to communicate and integrate into existing society without destroying it. Have you ever tried that with wild animals... that are now ostensibly much more difficult to track and have no self-control or concept of longterm preservation?

This doesn't even make sense as humans wouldn't devastate the local environment in an uncontrolled fashion the way new animals would.
I understand that, they had like 40k job openings a little while ago, and they are cutting 10k so my guess is that plenty get re-aligned and some don't.
This is a heavily augmented version as compared to the games covered here, but some of my strongest memories of gaming as child with my dad were playing Sports Illustrated's 1971 baseball game*.

It was a lineup-based game with actual players, the dice mechanics were a single die of one color (black, IIRC) with numbers [1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3], a white die of [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], and a white die of [0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4]. The dice were read as "black die in 10s, plus the sum of white dice in 1s".

The pitcher rolled first, capturing the walks, HBP, strikeouts, etc. If the pitcher result was NULL, then the batter rolled for the result (with different results vs right and left handed pitchers). Each player had a running speed, which was used in tables when the manager decided to steal a base or try to stretch a hit into an extra base or tag up on a marginal fly ball. It did a fairly good job of capturing the actual results to match the statistics from the season.

We each picked four teams and ran a league, did an All Star game, playoffs, and World Series. Along the way, I had to keep track of all the stats, calculate the averages (damn fine way of making me do math exercises), etc. From over 40 years ago, I can still remember the game, the mechanics, the worn out spots on the stats sheets as I updated them.

I would normally agree with this, but Rust for Linux project in fact uses lots of unstable Rust features, and unstable Rust features in fact break a lot (as they should). Unstable Rust is in fact more painful than GCC C, so pain of upgrade is a genuine con against Rust. I just think benefit is larger.

> I've always been amazed at how US sporting events involve a lot of alcohol but rarely have significant conflicts

I think there's a different cultural attitude towards fighting here. Fighting with fists is something boys do that they grow out of. Of course American culture has a macho aspect that see violence as a fundamental masculine skill, but even people who buy heavily into it don't have an idea of fighting as good clean fun. Fights where nobody gets really hurt are kid stuff, because men should be more capable than that. Serious violence will likely involve guns, which only makes sense for extremely desperate people and/or criminals, so if you're not a hardened criminal, living in wretched poverty, or a failed man-child, you look silly initiating physical violence. Though of course you watch it constantly on TV and in movies and constantly worry about your (assured in-)ability to turn into a bad-ass on a moment's notice if necessary, because it's fully expected of you.

And of course popular culture is incredibly nostalgic for the days of casual fighting in bars, because it's exciting entertainment and a great way to build characters that people want to identify with.
Well, with the suggested 1000 internal microservice calls per query it seems to be very brittle, esp. since 70% if those maintainers are now gone. Site will be up, but many features will be gone sooner or later. Which might be a good thing afterall.

Worst is the extreme dependency on Scala devs, whose only realistic job is at Twitter. Look for Scala dev jobs, they are only needed in Sunnyvale.
Both internal and external review of twitter shows a bias towards the right. It is probably still "more left-wing than that of facebook" but still distinctly rightwing.
> The twitter check was, and was always supposed to be, a way to make people with the check feel special.

No, stop it. That kind of hyperbole isn't helping the discussion. It's very clear what the intent was behind verification. It's clear from the name itself; Twitter was quite clear about it at the time. And as pointed out, it's abundantly clear that it was serving exactly that need well, as the second it was modified people started getting fooled into selling the wrong drug stock!

I'm sorry you're upset at Twitter, but it doesn't help things by lying about their products.

But Rust builds on top of that 50 years of experience, stability and known issues and has solved a lot of them. What does C have to offer that Rust doesn't?

PSA: Assault rifle isn’t a real thing, it’s a political term that depends on the cosmetic qualities of the firearm that anyone with some basic tools could change in 5-10 minutes, like the style of the hand grip. It has nothing to do with caliber or lethality of the weapon.

If you wanted, you could own an MP5 that would be categorized as an assault rifle, to do so you would need to make it LESS lethal, by converting it from a fully automatic weapon into a semi-automatic, and would need to put a longer barrel on it. Such versions are sold in the US.
This article is about US charts, so any conversation about the other 95% of the world is, by definition, irrelevant.

Whoever figures out a secular distillation of the concept of grace is going to be very, very successful in community-building. The lack of it is painfully apparent, and it offers something to both the accused and the accusers.

It was intentional.

So to wake up I had an alarm since I had to be up for work in the morning. But for bedtime, I would go to sleep super late every day. I'd spend the time playing videogames, watching movies, etc.

The reasoning was, I wanted to "enjoy" the time I had after work and didn't want to sleep, because going to sleep would mean after a couple of hours I'd have to wake up and go to work. So I'd prolong that time as much as I could.

This is hopeful. I agree there's a good chance we'll all be running on IPv6 eventually. I just don't see it happening in the next 10 years unless the gamers can get us there. Personally, I'm hoping to see a selfhosting revolution in the next 5 years, and I think that's going to happen over tunnels and overlay networks.
Nice to meet you. I am someone who understands the area that recognizes that there is a lot of fraud happening at centralized companies riding on the coattails of blockchain technology’s novelty. Despite that, I still have faith in the underlying technology and can think of several applications that are useful and nothing to do with Ponzi schemes.

The underlying technology still makes me just as optimistic as it did ten years ago.

Just some anecdata :).
adrian_b's explanation is pretty good explanation of what I'm saying. To expand on that: you cannot pack transistors side-by-side without moving to global custom poly. The result is that there's a large amount of "technically not space for the transistor, but space required for the transistor to work" stuff around the transistor.

The result is that a 2nm process transistors is on the order of 10s of millions of atoms.

Source: I work with the latest nodes.

Here's a Fermi estimate: the M1 is ~16 billion transistors; assume it is 1 cm^2. That gives (10^7)^2 nm^2 / 10^10 transistors, which is ~10^4 nm^2/transistor. Assume the transistor is ~50nm high, which gives ~5x10^5 nm^3/transistor. There are ~100 SI atoms/nm^3, which gives a volume of ~5x10^7 SI/transistor.
It could even be a fucking pet monkey, he still didn't start it.

And that is the fucking problem. More and more shit if coming up about him (latests I saw today was an 'expose' about his degree and maybe even being illegally in the country, which I don't know if it is true or not) but people seem to believe whatever shit comes out of his mouth over facts. Was he pard of the success in Tesla, yes. Was he a founder/started it? Absolutely fucking not. Was Tesla be able to succeed without the government tax credits/investments, absolutely fucking not. But now that it is in a good path, he even moved state to avoid that 'government' issues. He is a fucking liar and a psychopath, but because he has money, people keep gargling his balls like they taste like candy mixed with wild truffles.

Look out for on campus career fairs, and the student career center or whatever it‘s called at your school. They should have a database where you can enter your resume and companies can find you. You might also ask a professor, some have connections to industry through projects and former students.

The salt thing is about submersion. From the few pictures that I was able to find after Ian, it seems that some started in the front, near the low voltage battery. This sometimes happens with gas cars after hurricanes too, though the effects with BEVs can be more dramatic and require more resources to control.

Road salt wouldn't be enough to cause this issue, as the batteries are pretty well sealed and the low voltage battery is well outside of the elements under normal operation.
I also dislike "ID" vs "id" (as short for "identity"), but there is some case for it. The below are from Webster's Third New International Dictionary Unabridged.

First, the case for "id":

id abbreviation

Now for "ID"

ID noun, plural ID's or IDs [REVISED] [identification]
1 a : documentation bearing identifying information

Of course researchers will want to do research. The question is, how do you select for those whose research will ever amount to something truly interesting, and avoid giving resources to those whose research will not?

You can try looking at the past, and derive criteria for it from that, via machine learning for example, but I would be hesitant to leave something like that up to a machine. Also times change, so criteria that worked in the past might not work now. Also, if you learn those criteria once, and then fix them, people will just game them.
The next step is being able to send a redirect to the client's tailscale with the public key of the destination node, so it can establish an anonymous connection directly with the node running the service, using some sort of Funnel ACL (default deny).

As myself and others have pointed out, at $1k/month, UBI would have liabilities of $3T/year. Is that in place of SS, Welfare, and Healthcare? That’s what would be required to offset that amount.

Or to invert it given the currents system: every man, woman, and child is currently taxed $1k/month to fund existing social service liabilities that are concentrated to a fraction of the population. How do you expand that benefit _and_ include all people as recipients without generating new revenue (e.g. raising taxes).

Of course for the publications, that's a feature. They (as well as analyst firms etc.) have been pushing back against their employees having personal brands since social media (including blogs) got big.
