I started an indie side project marketplace in 2014 called SideProjectors.

https://sideprojectors.com

Back then Flippa was probably the only dominant online marketplace for digital businesses.

It’s a big claim I know but I’m proud that the marketplace still is thriving and since then there has been dozens of similar marketplaces popped up. Also in the past few years it’s been so much easier for anyone to start online projects with various nocode tools and all.

Can’t say how impactful it has been, but I’m happy how far it has come.
What is the maximum length of audio allowed? What are your costs in running this? Are the hardware requirements substantial?
Why do you think that's absurd? With a microservice architecture you can easily hit that rendering a personalized feed.
Talk about fair distribution all you want, it doesn't matter. People who buy tickets are not the customers of Ticketmaster. Ticketmaster does not have any incentive to implement any system that better serves the people who actually attend ticketed events.

The customers for Ticketmaster are venues. That's the only party that Ticketmaster cares to please. Of course Ticketmaster wields their monopoly power such that venues have little choice but to go with them. But even if they did not do that, Ticketmaster serves the interests of the venues very very well.

If you want to defeat Ticketmaster with a market solution, you can't do it by creating a Ticketmaster competitor. No matter how good it is, venues can't be swayed. You will have no customers. The only market solution is to own venues. As a venue owner you could refuse to renew with Ticketmaster and use any other system you wanted.

Of course, if you do that, good luck booking anyone to perform in your venue. It better be a big famous one that they can't ignore.
Yes, that makes a lot of sense. Far-out surrender dates are not that unusual.
I assume that Google Play is a big source of Android revenue for Google, and a major reason for them to keep developing it.
I've noticed recently that there are people out there who simply can't accurately listen to others and repeat back what they say. It's not about being stressed for time, the skill is just not there. You say ABC, they write CBD, and they have no idea it's not the same thing.
Their facial expressions said they were annoyed with me, but I could have been mistaken!
The insulin the patent was sold for costs about $20 at Walmart. The modern insulin costing $500 is a completely different product. It’s an insulin analogue. It’s not even human insulin, it’s a synthetic compound that provides the same function of insulin, but with a much more efficacy, convenience, and safety. They were developed by the pharma companies in the last few decades, and continue to be iterated and improved on.

There are reasons to be concerned about insulin pricing, but this remains a completely wrong and uninformed one. It is the equivalent of expressing shock that a smartphone costs hundreds of dollars when walkie talkies have been around for decades and only cost $20.
To be clear, you don't let the clutch out for this exercise, that would indeed cause lurching or stalling.

The idea is to very slowly feather it in and out at the edge of friction to transmit just enough power to slowly get going smoothly.

I have an 88 CRX, it can easily get going with clutch alone.

If a car's life is 150,000 miles, averages 30 mph in the city, that's 5,000 hours of life. If the driver expects to make $20 per hour, you just have to keep the hardware to under $100,000. Even dividing that by 2 to account for unknowns and work the driver would otherwise do, there's a clear path to profitability once the volumes increase.
What?! That's not comparable at all. The computer isn't murdered, it's just off. Also even if you did destroy the computer, that's not murder.
A custom feature-flag system for my current firm. It lets them roll out things unattended ("add 2% of users every day until it's fully on"), gated in ways that fit their business structure.

We're in a space(payments) where deployment is a tightly managed compliance thing, and people get very touchy about specific assumed behaviour. A lot of support inquiries are literally "you just fixed things and got fully certified to be compliant with a third-party service? But we LIKED the old behaviour!"

Feature flags have lowered the tension. We can put sensitive customers into a penalty box until they're ready to use the updated feature, and if something blows up too badly, we just entirely deactivate the change until it can be properly fixed, with a few clicks. Virtually any significant project has one or more flags, and it's ,mostly been a "alternate Fridays are for side projects" sort of task.
I'd love to read a tutorial on how to do this for myself.
To prevent scalping, one could just write the name of the person on the physical ticket at purchase time and then check ID at the entrance.

A supportive family and affluence do not make up for the conditions these children have been born into. Their mother isn't around for the first 10 years of their lives. They'll live their entire lives wondering if they were born not because their mother wanted to have them and be present and participate in their lives, but because she (very likely) was doing anything she could to stay out of prison. It has a many years of therapy at least written all over it. These kids are just as much pawns and victims as everyone else seems to be in her life - and they'll likely know it.

She has the resources to freeze eggs and do surrogate birth at 50. Or a private adoption (I doubt official channels like convicted felons). There are plenty of better, less selfish options than the one she chose. I haven't seen anyone arguing for the justice system to prevent someone from becoming a parent. If she started a family at any point in the 20 years prior to being indicted or after release from prison I'd wish her and her family all the best.

Instead (and I really try not to be cynical) this was all almost certainly orchestrated in an attempt to garner sympathy. I have to imagine a non-zero portion of the potential jury pool would (all things being equal) have some potential reluctance in sending a new mother/currently pregnant person to prison because some wealthy people got ripped off. Obviously that's not the way it went.

I really respect you but I'm having a hard time seeing this as anything else and I think we need to have more compassion for her children. They may end up just fine but they're getting a rough start to say the least.

To be absolutely clear - this isn't about her. Enough has been about her. This is about the ends she has gone to in this entire situation and the effect it will almost certainly have on these kids who don't deserve any of this.
Leap smearing is awful except for rough synchronization operations that don't care if you redefine a second, and even there it isn't great even if you know the exact smearing formula because you can't easily tell if the data you're getting is pre-smeared or post-smeared, or should be smeared but isn't, and then you end double smearing or inverse smearing by accident.
You can probably watch any interesting content you find on Disney+ on a Saturday before having to wait a while for anything new. The catalog is not that much, but it is high quality, and I don't have a tv show about a soda company promotion on my front page like I do with the supposedly ad free version of the Netflix plan.

> Example 1

This is how it works, only the primary purchaser has to show id. You can bring anyone in but you have to show up together, so if you do pay a scalper/reseller then they're at least also a PJ fan and you'll be walking in together.

> Example 2

With the PJ tickets, you actually can sell them, but you just get a refund and they're released back into the ticket pool on ticketmaster.

The purpose is to enter the if block if and only if the pattern is matched. In your example, if "need_explicit_dep_argument_path" matches enum "DepArgumentRequirePath::NotNeeded" the if block will be entered (else it will be skipped). This is a bit of an atypical example as there are no bindings in the pattern match, but most times there are, and they are then scoped within the if block. For example:

let my_option = Some("test");

if let Some(my_str) = my_option {
println!("I matched this string: {my_str}");
}
"Reinstate"? That's kind of a weird word. I mean, yes, he was removed, but removed by him losing an election. He's not going to be "reinstated" by any process other than winning an election.
You can also transfer tickets on their platform, so even if there's a cap you can go off-platform for payment and "transfer" (aka sell) through the platform

AXS is really not invested in trying to stop scalpers, they do all this to defeat double use of tickets.

>That he deleted that stupid tweet was admission it was stupid.

No, admitting that it was stupid would be an admission that it was stupid. Removing its existence is just hiding the mistake.

>Where did he say he never posted it though? It's highly unlikely he said that and wasn't joking.

Here[1], and inb4 you say that's obviously a joke. No it is not to a casual observer. He claims he never tweeted what was reported, and the only indication at all that the tweet should be read in a not monotone voice is the emphasis asterisks around not. All that indicates to a casual observer is that he is emphatically denying he ever made the first indirect tweet.

This article has about 10 red flags -- the first one to jump out to me is this:

And so, the researchers came up with the burden of proof risk function, a novel statistical method to quantitatively “evaluate and summarize evidence of risk across different risk-outcome pairs.” Using the function, any researcher can evaluate published data for a certain health risk, then, using the function, compute a single number that translates to a one- through five-star rating system.

A new statistical method?

Outside of that, the entire tenor of the article sounds like it's out of an EA journal. We don't do "studies" -- we do _real_ studies.

ok.

...site funded by Kochs. ouch.
Is there a place to read more about that?
Fairly odd, as I've interacted with south american women before in both a professional and non professional setting and there have been those that were passionate in speaking and those that weren't. Usually those impassionate were more experienced in their profession. So it has nothing to do with ethnic culture. Op is just attempting a racial profiling, and attributing management styles to that. Pretty appalling and shows inexperience both in management and people skills.
Nah. Its common for astronomy to use GPS time and then apply the corrections from BIPM Circular T to get UT1.

For sophisticated astronomy systems the elimination of leap seconds should simplify and reduce a source of errors. As it is, since Circular T is against UTC you need to take your local source of time and worry if leap seconds have been correctly applied (apply leap seconds to gps time or make sure haven't been fed smeared NTP time or other horrors) before you can get UT1.

Fairly casual astronomy, no-- but that isn't driving international standards, and there mechanical uncertainties dominate so you'll end up doing a 1-star correction in any case which immediately corrects the clock.
Kind of reminds me of "semantic satiation" where repeating the same word over and over again eventually makes it sound like gibberish noises.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_satiation
You could do that, sure. Whenever I want to schedule a meeting with someone in Zurich, I could reason “15:00 UTC is about an hour before solar noon for me and — looking it up — about four hours past for him. Reasonable time for a meeting.” This would prove so useful in practice that people would rapidly start referring to times that way when talking to people from abroad: “sorry I couldn’t take your call, it was seven hours past solar noon for me; I was having dinner.” Everyone would memorize their location’s offset from UTC and use it colloquially all the time.

Oh wait, we’ve reinvented time zones!

Basically, the point of time measured in hours and minutes is to be useful to humans in daily life. And it’s useful to have a common language for things relevant to humans.
I'm working on an implementation of forward-mode in F# and have been wanting to move into reverse-mode as well, so this will be a great resource.
I mean, sure, technically. It seems far better to have a baby right before you go into prison then in prison though. The experience of being pregnant is probably horrible, and certainly giving birth unchained. Then when the baby comes you get to breastfeed if that's something you want to do and hold your baby for more than 10 minutes. And I guess in 11 years it means you missed like 5th grade graduation, but other than that it's not like 10 vs 11 is super relevant.
Honestly, I have lost the motivation. Or perhaps it that I find nothing about computers to be rewarding anymore. I've almost decided that life was simpler and better when everybody was not buried in a phone 12 hours a day and didn't need to be online from home to deal with the basic demands of working and living.

The efficiency and power curves are much broader for EVs than ICEs. The RWD Tesla Model 3 is one of the more efficient EVs on the market altogether even with a single motor and single speed. But it suffers in acceleration compared to dual motor models which use a less efficient (but higher low-speed torque) induction motor with a shorter gear ratio on the front axle to boost traction and acceleration.

Think of it this way, if the Taycan were to drop one of its gears they would drop the low gear, not the high gear. The car would still accelerate better than most midrange ICE cars and still do fine on the highway. It just wouldn't have the off-the-line punch you expect from a high end performance EV.

If you chop the low gears out of an ICE transmission you either just stall or have extremely poor acceleration at low speeds.

So yes gearing can help in an EV if you want high performance over a large range of speeds, but for a city or highway commuter car, even chasing sportier characteristics, single speed (per axle) is fine. If you want two ratios for overlapping performance you can just change the fixed reduction ratio on one of the axles.

The Taycan is specifically targeting a range of performance beyond what you'll use daily on US public roads.
Ok now do it in 10 code screenshots.

My complaint isn't in the general concept of justifying your value. My complaint is in the request to have every coder in the company boil this down to such a simplistic representation of it on short notice in an environment where every indication is that it's going to be considered for a laughably small amount of time and then you might be fired on the spot if you didn't focus on the right axes.
Did you see the part about selling to kids who don't have much money?
How is a company supposed to fail gracefully?

There's always a touch of dishonesty in these ventures -- it's so-called risk -- but when a company no longer is worth anything, how is that supposed to fail blamelessly?

It's a wonder that "Computer (occupation)"[0] never became a corporation with unions so that we'd have a case study of something that clearly should have gone by the wayside with the advent of technology.

Maybe there are some guidelines for business models that even make sense. Apparently Theranos illustrates that "accusing everyone else of being a lazy liar with stagnant investment" isn't workable either.

I don't know how you can make this argument persuasive without either writing fanfic or veering into misogyny. By all indications, the kid we're talking about is going to have a privileged childhood. The mom thing will be weird, but much less weird that a kid whose mom is convicted (even for a much shorter sentence) in the middle of their childhood. When you find yourself writing the words "she has the resources to freeze eggs and do surrogate birth at 50", you know you've gone way off the rails.

I barely remember anything about being a 4th grader, for what it's worth. Their mom will very much be in their life.
> There is no crypto scheme, no algorithm, no possible arrangement of private keys and Merkle trees that can escape the reality of men with guns.

On the contrary. It's the only case where maths can defend vs men with guns.

Multi sig schemes spread over different people over several continents make the "men with guns" thing very difficult. Or multisig but m-out-of-n, with a dead beat: if after x weeks you don't hear of person A, person B and C move the coins to a new sig where person A isn't involved anymore.

There are also a shitloads of things you can do with smart contracts. For example you can have a smart contract where if person A's private key doesn't sign anything for more than x weeks ("blocks"), the funds are destroyed.

There also the whole plausible deniability thing: where it's impossible to know where a hardware unlocked with a hardware wallet is the real thing or not.

>I wonder if that’s why people are moving out of California at a record rate. Same with companies

Probably because they are no longer competitive to afford them. If you want to argue that there needs to be a more compassionate, less capitalist competition to California then I'll walk back my argument as I would agree that there are tradeoffs there. If you were discussing there needing "to be some competition to California model" and referencing capitalistic model then I will still point to the fact that gdp per capita puts California as the best subnational polity

>Every possible metric is worse except for network effects and access to capital in SV.

Again if you meant to compare this to a non capitalistic market then you have a point, but if this is capitalism vs capitalism that's like saying "if you just remove all the ways they are winning, aren't they actually losing?"

Other platforms do waves, split across time zones. That would distribute the load to prevent crashes.
A non-technical nonprofit will fuck up regardless of the load. Beyond "keeping it online", it can be something as simple as "knowing how to configure the dns for it".
Sweet! Do you have any links to resources on how to speed it up? I couldn't find any while searching Google or the Whisper discussion forums.
Not really. That one has been solved seen Bitcoin BIP 39 with plausible deniability.

I wouldn’t even say the verdict is out. Considering we’ve already had some relatively close calls, I think we can say with statistical certainty that we will destroy civilization on a long enough time scale if we keep the nukes around.

If the odds of nuclear war are 1% in a century, we won’t last much more than 10,000 years, and might last a lot fewer.
They should create a configuration of levers of some sort of context: controversial (slide the up or down), newsworthy, celebrity, sports. Not tags per se, those get too varied. Some basic directional sliders that skirts a fine line between avoiding echo chamberism and allowing people to filter things that offend them.

This could control top posts, but theoretically also their replies.

It's the stupid replies that make Twitter annoying, not so much the top posts for me.

It's much harder for people complaining about toxicity if they can filter it out. Then it'll be harder for them to argue someone should be deplatformed. Because then they would be arguing that you and I should be barred from reading that person.
