Given it's Musk and his stated primary life goal, the most ridiculous aspect of the Twitter debacle for him, is: not only of course did he overpay for Twitter by at least 2x; not only is his net worth going to contract as Tesla's stock compresses (such that the poor Twitter decision is going to be that much more painful in relation to his overall wealth); but the $40x billion could have probably paid for getting Starship to Mars. He's not going to be as rich in the future as he was in that moment, and he'll be relentlessly mocked for the context as his ship takes on water (eg when he's worth $60-$80 billion and spent $44 billion buying Twitter and SpaceX needs $10+ billion infused into it to keep pursuing Mars).

For something completely different, you might want to look at Unikernel Linux: https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.00789 You could run all the code without switching between userspace and the kernel, and you can call into kernel functions directly (with the usual caveats about kernel ABI not being stable).

Except… chemical bonds don’t ‘store’ energy. Molecules are a low energy configuration. It takes energy to rip them apart!

But, O2 molecules, with their double bond, don’t take much energy to break apart. If they do, and then pair up with say a bunch of Hydrogen and Carbon atoms that were nearby in some long chain or something, they form bonds that are stronger - that take more energy to break - and you end up with some leftover energy. Water and CO2 molecules are an even lower energy configuration.

but the extra energy you get wasn’t exactly ‘in’ the oxygen bond though - any more than when you have a ball at the top of a hill it has potential energy ‘in’ it.

I actually think they fixed the online version since the last time I checked - when I visited it 3 weeks ago, I remember the site staying on the "walgreens.jobs" domain for the entire visit - now it redirects to jobs.walgreens.com. I wonder if they were using an old poster from before the law came into effect, and maybe even the listings/website were old before the migration to jobs.walgreens.com - now they do include a link to the pay information, but I love how they make you copy and paste a URL instead of just directly including the info, or even making it a hyperlink.

Running a startup in Europe, we needed to find some hospitals as customers. We went to Berlin, the capital of EU startups and it was a PITA to get to talk to decision makers in large hospitals. The arrogance, disinterest for tech and speed of answer left much to be desired. Then we got some contacts in the US and every major hospital decision maker was a phone call away with a very fast answer if they find use in us or not. Not soon after we incorporated in Delaware. While you might have two valid points, saying that this is all it comes down to is a gross oversimplification.

This would obviously be codec dependent, but I'm surprised it's impossible to losslessly re-encode a video given I, P, and B frames. Mentally, I think of P frames as containing "changes" in the frame. The changes would be the same regardless of whether or not the previous frame was an I or P frame.

Yes, that's generally correct. If you were to toss a solar mass of water into the sun, it would become fuel for the sun's fusion reactions. Fusion reactors work in a similar way, but on a much smaller scale. They use fuel, typically hydrogen or a mixture of hydrogen and helium, and use intense heat and pressure to fuse the atoms together, releasing a large amount of energy in the process.
Umm.. that's not how banks operate. If I want to withdraw a million in cash, it is reasonable for the bank to ask me to wait until it mobilizes the cash. If they don't let me transfer money to another bank/account, that's problematic.

You are correct, this entire thread is a response to a question specifically about deflation (not inflation). So the discussion in the thread is about decreasing prices. Which, as you point out, is not what we have now.

You may want to join the top-level thread, which is about the current inflationary environment.

Deflation is bad because some people owe money.

Lets say I buy a house for $500,000. I put $25,000 down and get a mortgage for $475,000. Then deflation hits. It's not just that my house becomes worth less in dollar terms (though it does), but also that I'm paying my mortgage with more expensive dollars. (In a real deflation, your salary can decrease.) That hurts. Some people lose their houses. The mortgage holders sell the houses for what they can get, which does two things. It drives down the price of houses. Also, it decreases the amount of dollars that are theoretically in the economy, so dollars become more valuable, and the deflation continues. Historically, this has caused enormous amounts of damage, wiping out businesses and families.

Now, 1% deflation this month won't do any of that. The problem is that the deflation can gain momentum and be very difficult to stop (similar to inflation in fact, but deflation can happen faster). So the Fed prefers to stay away from deflation, preferring something like 2% inflation to give them a bit of margin to work with. And they've been nervous since 2008 because they couldn't get back up to 2% inflation.
If you think that's bad, you should read up on how the record industry intentionally partitioned music by ethnicity back in the early 1900's. Ever wonder why radio stations break down by race in the US?

It didn't start out that way, but then there was a big moral panic over interracial marriage.

This shows the bias in SD, but also the cash grab Lensa went for without doing the proper diligence on their end. They should have been able to resolve this issue on their end with trained/merged checkpoints, negative prompting and tight sfw filtering. But they didnt care enough. Also, are they not using specific prompts for the generations? Why are men getting astronauts, but women are not. One would of assumed they would be using a dynamic prompting to insert people into a predetermined set of situations at scale.

Underneath all of the slick marketing and nerd posturing is a simple truth: these are all fractional reserve systems. Conceptually, they are no different than banks or pyramid schemes.

Yes they do... and if it was an exceptionally small bank that didn't have it at the moment, with a day or two notice, they'd happily give you $100k in cash after receiving it from the Fed or from their vault cash providers. A busy ATM will contain more than $100k and on premises ATMs are often refilled from the bank's vault.
I'm curious why you trailed off at the end. You seem to be hinting that there is a balance between decision making ability and voter turnout, and that younger voters have worse decision making abilities, but then stop short of saying how they ought to be balanced or where the optimal balance is.

There's a lot of interesting directions to take this. How do you get out of the trap of thinking that people who vote in their self-interest or disagree with you are incapable of making good voting decisions? Or, even whether you frame voting as a privilege or a right?

Teens who have jobs, pay income tax, teens who buy things pay sales tax, and yet aren't represented seems like a contradiction in our foundational principles.

Okay. Now compare:

It is indeed encouraged, I'm somewhat disabled with chronic fatigue, a condition many institutions don't even believe exists. So I'm sensitive to what people like me go through. I'm fortunate that I can pay my own way but others I know who rely on government assistance have privately relayed to me that they have been personally encouraged to look into MAiD. The "maybe you're faking it" has morphed into "maybe your life just isn't worth living, and we're still going to deny you disability... so think about it."

Personally I'd love for more research into ME/CFS and Long Covid but I'm pretty sure it'll get pushed into the too hard basket and MAiD will be over used as the easy solution.
OTOH, as a former public defender I have no problems talking with the police.

The police aren't your friend. They're also not your enemy.

Talking to the police as part of an investigation doesn't make you a suspect. Seriously, how do people think criminal investigations are done? Talking to witnesses is a huge part of investigating. People very rarely finger themselves as potential suspects; it's almost always the other witnesses who identify them as suspects.

If you're worried that you've done something wrong, talk to a lawyer first. 99.9% of the time, they'll tell you it's fine. Of course, if you tell the police you need to talk to your lawyer first, they'll want to know why you think you need a lawyer; if I were your lawyer, that's the first thing I'd wonder too. And if you weren't considered a potential suspect before you definitely will be on their short list after.
The big difference is you can only build so many houses in a desirable location. Housing and the land they reside on are non-fungible. Medicine, food, clothing, etc. are essentially fungible since you can pump out more medicine, clothes, etc. and they're able to replace what was used/lost/damaged/etc.
Yes, for some additional explanation for those that might use it, that's "ASCII math": it assumes all lowercase ASCII Latin letters (which most Unicode encodings including UTF-8 and UTF-32 inherit). ASCII was intentionally designed so that the lowercase letters a-z are in English alphabet order and so subtracting 'a' from the letter gives you an alphabet position number from 0-25. (The same applies in ASCII for the upper case range A-Z and the numerical range 0-9, though doing math between ranges is less fun.)

Then you've just got a standard single 1 left shifted 0-25 positions. (So 'a' is 1 and 'z' is 1*2^25.)
we’re talking about the government not the Chinese people here but nice bad faith response
I’m not sure I follow, but you’re saying the power plants are very large relative to their power output, and this size correlates to cost, thus making them so expensive that they are not economical?

You’re probably right, but I guess what I’m saying is that we’ve never had a fusion power plant that produces net energy gain at any cost. I believe SPARC is on the path to doing so. It will still take a long time to make fusion actually affordable. For what it’s worth I am a huge advocate of wind and solar power. But fusion is neat and I’m excited for us to get to a point where we actually have sustained Q total greater than 1.
I couldn’t agree more, and we might look at a plug-in hybrid for our next model.
I could actually hear the tones reading your comment.

As an aside, if UoSAT-2/Oscar-11 is overhead it transmits tones identical to BBC Micro tape tones sending its (sadly now nonsense) telemetry back down to Earth, on 145.800MHz - and it was designed that way for a good reason ;-)
> Until you recognize that ad-blocking works properly and will continue to work properly in Firefox.

And how long do you think Mozilla can sustain the worlds largest ad blocker as all competing browsers progress?
Yup, good times.

Of course, nowadays, the "intercept anything, do with it whatever you like" mindset is, at best, a security nightmare, and in any case an adware vector. "Hey, you just had an read error on your Seagate device... Don't you know Micropolis does a lot better?"

So, rightfully so. But I still miss those days...
So, it's not that there would be a power vacuum, it's that there would be horizontal power structures instead of hierarchical power structures. If you snapped Thanos's glove and the state suddenly stopped existing, there's no reason to expect that would go well, I'd agree with that. You'd have to carefully dismantle it, piece by piece, and replace them with better structures. You'd need to maintain and adapt those structures as you encounter problems and as the world changes.

If people can just get the things they need or want straightforwardly I don't think many would choose to get them by force. I don't think people form mafias because they're just looking for something to do, I think mafias usually form because a certain ethnic group or social class isn't able to get what they require through licit means. Eg, when Italians arrived in the United States, they faced immense prejudice and discrimination in hiring. In my view this is a mirror image of the hierarchy that was oppressing them to begin with.

Will there be super sophisticated criminals who need dedicated, specialist investigators to pursue? It seems like reasonable speculation. In that case though, these specialists don't need to be the same people as beat cops. A big problem with the police is that their mission is too broad and they can't possibly to a good job across the board. If we have a big computer crime problem we can form a computer crime investigation team, with various checks and balances, and all they're empowered to do is investigate and to present their findings to the other mechanisms of the justice system.
Hard to see this becoming law though. They must have influence in DC by now.
We'd be half way to correcting the price inflation created by the rapid monetary inflation from the looting of 2020.

In general I agree crypto feels like ponzi. But in this specific case, they seem to be fully solvent relative to US dollars? If clown money was floating, it would definitely be iffy. But it's tethered to the dollar. It's almost an IOU in that sense relative to the dollar. They don't have enough specific "currency" (usdc), but as long as I can withdraw to USD, it is not a scam.
Gwynn Shotwell has an excellent track record with Falcon 9. But putting her in charge of Starship is a career trap. Elon's position might be that either Starship works or nothing else matters.

The purpose of NIF is to investigate the practicality of inertial confinement, not "be a production fusion reactor". They don't use bleeding edge laser tech, nor are they really built to generate significant amounts of power. For context, modern lasers are ~20x more efficient than the ones that NIF is using.

Reporting based on the energy put into the reaction itself (the lasers) reflects far better the feasibility of the confinement tech than spending an inordinate amount of budget on an already incomprehensibly expensive science experiment to try and optimize every last edge condition.
