That's because few, if any, were being taught the fundamentals, and they also have not been taught to have a discerning eye, especially when identifying and using information, when its in fact propaganda.

I'm far more concerned about the permanent 0% depository requirements change at the Fed far more than people not seeing the end of 0% rates.

What use is all that history and education around understanding the mechanics of fractional reserve banking when a small group of people make a fundamental and permanent change without announcement like that?

There is nothing more permanent than a temporary solution in government as was evidenced that no change has been made reverting that in 2 years, and QE printing continued for a decade after the previous financial contagion.

The interchange fee differences between credit card types are not very high, usually around 0.5%. You can see the public Visa interchange rates at https://usa.visa.com/content/dam/VCOM/download/merchants/vis.... Credit card companies play a lot of games with this too and will “upgrade” your card type if they think it’s worth it, even if you don’t make any changes.

The biggest variances involve non-exempt (Durbin amendment) debit cards.
You are ignoring that those "many" are a tiny minority among the educated. Cranks are always among us.
American who spent 2016-2020 in Vietnam. Banking is atrocious there. Imagine only having about $1500 worth of FDIC insurance and the banks regularly go belly up because of corruption and making bad investments in property.

Crypto is big in Vietnam, entirely as a cultural thing. They love games and they love finding creative ways to make money. They really got scammed well in the ICO days. DeFi didn't get big because they were still butt hurt from ICO days and because well, they don't understand the concepts in DeFi. Collateralized loans and providing liquidity just went over most people's heads.

That said, there are a lot of unbanked people there. Women in the north still put gold fillings in their teeth to store wealth "safely". They also have great inexpensive 4/5G everywhere and smart phones. There is a huge younger generation. Most people use cash and the largest paper(plastic) note there is about $22, which makes larger purchases a struggle.

It is ripe for innovation and digital P2P payments. The huge blocker is the government, which will need to be in control of all of this. Otherwise it'll all be black market dealing.

When I have aversion to creating a ticket, it's around the weight of the ticket to create.

What I generally want is someplace to cheaply mark an action item to create a ticket, so I can jot down a quick idea, then come back to write the heavy weight ticket from that later.

If I'm aiming to jot something down, it's because im focused on a work item, and don't want to fully context switch away from that item and into the user story and background details for the new ticket. It's not that it's hard to write the ticket, but it's hard to resume the work you were doing before you were prompted to open a ticket
Only in closed-book mode. If you open the books and let it reference the materials it doesn't make stupid mistakes like that. What the model needs is a search engine and a curated index of materials.
"I have found that many many developers are averse to tickets and complain about having to create tickets (like we see in a sibling of yours)."

I can give you my answer: Because the ticketing system is painfully slow to log in to, create the ticket, move it to the proper status, etc. Single sign on can make things worse too. The whole process can add up to easily a minute, and not a productive minute of the actual filing (I would be fine with that) but a minute of poking at things.

This does not make you wrong. If you want to say there's some laziness there, yeah, maybe. But it's not just laziness, there's a psychological torture aspect to it all too that is, if not "objectively" true, then at least not entirely my imagination either.

I really, really, really wish Atlassian would basically drop everything for a quarter or two and work on the speed of their products. There shouldn't be a fundamental reason why their stuff is so slow.
Occam hits the nail on the head - those with valuable data will pay, the value of "privacy" is not a long tail graph, it's a diminishing return.

So the products for the poor are subsidized by the information of the able at a cost to everyone. That doesn't feel sustainable to me - we're barely twenty years into the Google era, and how many hours have been wasted opting out of tracking? How many useful things could have been created for a dollar per user instead of mesothelioma ads?

That the indigent get 'free' service is a byproduct of the fact that companies abuse everyone else to subsidize it.

"Your" data may be worth a buck, but to the right person, targeting "you" is worth a fortune - the value you extract from your Gmail address is the same, the value they extract is not.

They forget themselves how it was for them at first (the curse of knowledge). New comers might even get onto the train and pretend they know better for appearance's sake. Murking the water.

Remember if you know better than the borrow checker you can use raw pointers. There is very little friction. But are you sure you can do better without the safety of the borrow checker having your back?
It's good to keep multiple backups with different implementations local and remote.

Rsnapshot is hard to break by using very basic principles of file system based files and hard links. If your file system isn't zfs, I think it's a viable backup strategy for local copy while you can use others to take remote backups.

> When you are comfortable thinking of ownership and pleasing the borrow checker without fighting.

That's kind of it. Saying "Rust forces you to think of memory ownership" is more accurate at the beginning, but not so much once you're experienced. Rust doesn't make me think about ownership: that's why the compiler checks it. It points out when I've made a mistake, and I move on. That I don't need to keep the rules in my head is kind of the entire point!
How about not rolling with ones own interpretation of the law, which coincidentally is very convenient for oneself?

I mean, if they do not actually know for sure how a specific law is to be interpreted then better err on the side of caution, instead of becoming a criminal, violating the rights of many millions of people. Better take precautions in case ones convenient interpretation turns out to be BS. I am sure they made their business viable without all those violations of the law. They can just flip a switch now, and stop doing the bad thing, that they now know for sure is illegal :)

But hey, that is just what I personally would consider an ethical approach, ha! Maybe not caring about the law and just continuing to ignore people's rights, being as invasive as possible to people's privacy, for as long as it is financially viable is the more ethical choice ...
Fascinating. I think that the capacity of nuclear weapons and MAD decreased the likelihood of future world wars to so low as to be effectively none.

But this article kinda opens the possibility of world war taking place entirely in the data/communications realm.
Me too! I thought there was a ship that'll burn down if you don't code fast enough. The video thumbnail showing "100 seconds" made me think there was a timer.
I hope that isn't true, because that would be astonishingly embarrassing. That's 20x large hadron colliders, or 100x FRIBs, or 10x james webb space telescopes, or 3x Manhattan projects, or 10x gemini programs.

It's true they developed a processor architecture, but they aren't even responsible for the fab. The total equity of TSMC is like 80 billion. It just makes no sense.

Is there any processor which puts the funds to themselves, with the legal binding that unless customer charge backs I will get the money after the chargeback period? Seems like this could save payment processor with lot of headaches while reducing their fees.
Lack of consistency should be a strong indicator of a poor job performance.

> What does Rust solve for the casual user?

If by casual user, you mean the 95% case of a back-end developer whose main job is pulling data from various sources, performing operations, and placing that data elsewhere and/or displaying it to an end user: nothing, really.

Rust excels at performance, but the bottleneck in modern web apps is going to be IO, whether that's loading data from a database or from a third-party API you're integrating with. Rust excels at correctness, but your errors are going to come from bad data and system outages which require manual intervention anyway. Rust excels at security, but if you're using a GC language running on a Docker container on an ephemeral cloud instance, the kind of security Rust provides isn't a likely attack vector for you.

All that being said, Rust is a great language! It just has its niche, and that niche is not the typical web-dev back-end work that most developers do these days. As others have said, you'd use Rust in the same situations you'd use C++: building a database, building a web server (like nginx), etc. If you're just building a web app that talks to a database and serves HTTP responses, stick with Python/Ruby/Go/PHP.

I just made it write a skit between r/wallstreetbets and Bill Burr during the GME saga... it was not as funny as when I then asked it to write a skit where Bill starts shilling for it.

It might have been something the film adaptation of Wolf of Wall street left on the cutting room floor, even down to the facial descriptors. Try it for yourself, its pretty silly, but so was Wolf of Wall street, and I read the book after the movie because I was told it had more gonzo-like story telling.

I haven't personally had any trouble with Rust's ownership model. It's pretty straightforward. I have found other aspects of the language and associated libraries difficult enough that I've made little progress with real projects. But that's not really relevant here. I'm more referring to the Rust community's characteristic cultural response to difficulties when they're raised, which seems (in my experience) to be first denial, then (generally polite) finger pointing.
I agree with you except that weight training/exercise has not only been shown to be safe, but also healthy in kids with normal health and development. There are extremes for sure, but the old adage that weight lifting will hurt you if you’re too young hasn’t held up to current research on the topic.
You're probably right, on looking up the details it's actually $120 per weekly paycheck, matched by my employer, so it's not so bad as the estimated $100, especially if you assumed that was monthly, but that's still not on-track for my retirement target. I also haven't poured much into the Roth since my eldest was born. But kids are expensive...

Ask HN: Convert full time offer into part time offer
I've got an offer to work towards a doctorate in Data Engineering and am close to getting a job offer as a Sr engineer @ roughly 2x the take home salary.

I'm really excited for both roles and ideally would like to do both.

How do I persuade the company to take me on part time for a pro-rata'd salary?
Yeah, I could see a position of, “How will people express themselves if they don’t practice writing essays?” but I could see in five years the primary two ways of doing that becoming (1) Machine-assisted essay writing, and (2) People with ideas explaining them to an AI model through conversation, and then the model going out and explaining it en masse to others. Maybe even some of those others will challenge points or extend the ideas, and the tech can distill all this feedback and critique into a summary that they take back to the author.

Problem is the law tends to use big words for small crimes. E.g. there was the story of a 17 year old boy sleeping with a 16 year old girl. The girl's dad didn't like it, the police got involved, and the boy is now on the register as both a pedophile and a rapist. I'd have no problem hiring him.

But how do you filter him out from the other people labeled rapist/pedophile? You believe him on his word?

You misread me. I don't think it is necessarily a bad thing at all. I'm just pointing out that those on the left have a reason for being ambivalent about it inasmuch as, in addition to its laudable goals, it also has the side effect of making it more difficult for them to influence minors.

You could use the Authorization Code Flow with Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) with a web server listening on localhost or you could use the Device Authorization Flow.

I believe GitHub use the latter for the GitHub CLI.
I've found there are two entirely different worlds within the Rust community.

Rust does attract a weird subgroup of people who can get preachy and pushy about there only being one way to do things.

But the helpful part of the community is much bigger and much better to work with. You just have to look past the loud people pushing agendas and stay out of flamewars on Reddit and HN.
This comes up in every such discussion: freedom of speech as a legal construct applies to governments, but freedom of speech as an ideal and principle is something that private platforms can support and encourage, or censor and deny.

We need a distinction for this, like "free as in legal" speech versus "free as in voice".
Ask HN: I want to create a startup, but I have no technical skills whatsoever
Hi Hackernews. I have been mulling a concept in my mind that I believe could help solve the problem that is false reviews and scams on Amazon, but i lack any sort of technical competency whatsoever and no-code websites seem to have a too confusing layout for me to grasp. What should I do?
3D films are relevant in that they are an example where something that was technically better was not transformational. And where there was a lot of hype but it turned out that people didn't really care. Which is important, because Meta is betting tens to hundreds of billions that facehugger VR will be transformational.

If you go back to the Brewster stereoscope, I count 6 waves of people expecting that stereoscopic 3D would change the world. Each time, there was lots of investment and lots of hype. Each time, it turned out that people were fine mentally reconstructing 3D from 2D without stereoscopic assistance.

My point here is that Meta's efforts could well be failed wave number 7.
If you learn Blacksmithing, you will learn a methodology to create fine steel. Something like:

Put steel ingot into furnace. Wait until hot. Remove to anvil and hit 50 times. Put back in furnace until hot. Remove to anvil and hit 50 more times. Repeat until steel forms a blade. Then quench.

This methodology is fine for producing a basic blade blank. But clearly it's not enough to simply give someone a method to make a blade. They have to actually do the job well, which they can only learn by doing. The method describes the process, but the method is not what produces the blade. If the blade turns out crap, the blacksmith is at fault, not the method.

It has everything to do with your comment. Your point is that regulating this stuff could harm people. My point is they're harming people a lot more just by existing and it would be a net gain if they were regulated out of existence.
Parts I read of GDPR were more approachable than any of the EULAs I have seen. More approachable than software licenses as well.
I also can't believe how many other comments (not yours) in the comments on this post are like "this is a good idea" and "we should consider this" and etc.

I'm amazed. Most of the people on here responding as such are, I'm guessing, are people from my generation: "millenials" who grew up natively on the internet, probably even hung out on Slashdot and etc when that was big. Slashdot had a lot of problems (so does this site, not gonna lie) but OMG I can't imagine a post like this appearing on 2005 era Slashdot and 1/3 of the people being like "but why not this probably is a good idea".

I thought when my generation grew up and had kids, we'd try to stand up for digital rights as being important for the next generation, because we experienced why it was important ourselves. I am depressed by just how wrong I was.
Should we measure the performance of an engineering team?
It's only marginally less ugly than blessing one arch (like arm or x86) and running the bootstrapping with an emulator.

Don't get me wrong, I do like it more, but I realize it's mostly an aesthetic thing. Logically and functionally it's like if you just blessed a build jsing cosmopolitan libc or something like that.
What happens if your culture is assimilated and co-opted?
I am not a lawyer, a GDPR implementation specialist, or even a GDPR enthusiast and I knew this.

Specifically, my understanding has always been that a company cannot demand consent to data storage and processing in exchange for providing a service except where the data is actually necessary to provide the service. It certainly isn't necessary to track what users do on other websites in order to provide Facebook's core product. It isn't even necessary to do that to provide ads targeted to a Facebook user's interests because people who use Facebook normally provide significant information about their interests through normal use of Facebook.

There is no way that Facebook wasn't aware courts were likely to understand the law that way.
How do you monetise the informational websites?
The catastrophic errors aren't the problem, the problem is when things are degraded by 20% which results in a small loss when it could have been a big win. You just assume it didn't work when in reality it wasn't implemented correctly

> his point is that the employees who the founder brings along are not bringing core value

So is the idea that founders who have brilliant and incredible thoughts will be rewarded just for the ideas since execution is trivial? I guess the VCs love the idea that intelligence is the most important trait and is rewarded directly with wealth. Which I feel is ironic since it's very hard to make the claim most of them got to where they are primarily because they are smart.
It's completely okay for rust not to overlap much with your work. If you aren't doing a lot of systems programming type jobs it's probably not all that applicable to your day to day work. If you're interested in systems programming then you might look into it. Seems like Java or typescript or ruby|python|php would be more up your ally and I assume you know one or more of those as a part of your work.
