Oh fun, soon prospective employers who have your email address or phone number will be able to look up your Twitter account and read all the tweets you totally intended for that audience.

Might be worth nuking your account if you are at risk of being outed for something.
Those historical returns are ridiculously optimistic. In fact stocks aren't great once you look globally. Imagine investing starting from 1900 Germany or Russia. In both cases you would be zeroed out. It's a form of survivorship bias to look at American stock markets only.

I think a 0% after-inflation return for a normal investor (ie. no specialized domain knowledge, no insider info) over the next several decades is already mildly optimistic.
That's entirely consistent with 100 billionaires moving out.
John Dobson used this technique to great effect to grind his own parabolic mirrors to build reflector telescopes. If you're not familiar, I highly recommend reading about his "Dobsonian" telescope design and its impact on amateur astronomy.
With HTTPS you need to own the edge cache yourself and most will have options to ignore the headers and URL parameters that you want. That way they can log the tracking data and serve the cached data as if they were never there.

Agreed.

I did originally buy into the explanation that they collected/digitized stock data that is no longer available.

But really it’s more likely to be some sort of fraud.
How do I bypass the paywall
I decide to summer someplace rural in summer 2021 to see how I would do. It was a 5 week rental, nice vacation.

It's not so much what they are lobbying on it's what they are able to accomplish. The ARRL has not accomplished meaningful legislation early in decades.

Maybe I am making progress, they appear to have fired their lobbyist after years of not achieving any goal

https://disclosurespreview.house.gov/ld/ldxmlrelease/2021/2T...

You can search for the publicly available lobbying disclosure reports that every lobbyist is required to file.

Don't take my word for it: Add up the amount of money that the lobbyist is claiming that the ARRL is paying them each year. Then compare that to their 990. The numbers don't match.

Why?
This is true in the US as well. Though it only affects people with larger inheritances.

Out of scope for this comment, but there are several ways these taxs is avoided.
It wasn't entirely clear from this article, but the intervention itself is the scavenger hunt and associated instructions. From the supplementary material: "Participants in the treatment condition were asked to talk to the person for at least a couple minutes, whereas participants in the control condition were simply asked to observe the person for at least a couple minutes". And from the related work this is based on previous research: "This suggests a promising intervention strategy: give people concentrated and repeated practice talking to strangers, so that they may realize their fears are exaggerated."
local NIMBY density restrictions still have to comply with all the other state laws regarding submitting plans to increase housing units.

If the state says no that’s not enough units you are just jerking us around, then the municipality is out of compliance and builders are basically autopermitted to build whatever they want (oversimplifying but look at builder’s remedy - it’s already being applied).

One of the important wrinkles is that there’s no take backs, once the city is back in compliance they can’t go back and stop things that were permitted in the meantime. It’s a very serious “fix it on your own terms or we’ll fix it for you and you won’t like it” approach.

Santa Monica is getting like 5000 new housing units all at once, 800 of them affordable housing, in tall apartment buildings because they threw a fit and refused to get in compliance and they found out just how serious the state is.

NIMBYs wail and gnash their teeth but all it does is expose that their “plans” are all a load of BS smoke and mirrors to max out boomer property values. If the plans were good enough, they’d be in compliance with the state and get to keep the “character of their neighborhood” or whatever.
Less parking, sure. But self driving cars will do nothing to reduce traffic. The problem isn't the number of cars in existence, but rather how many cars are actually driving around at any given point. This number will surely go up with self driving, or at best stay the same.
so, they read and profile your emails, and then categorize that for you, and you love that?

I still use this service. At the beginning of the pandemic shutdown we were using it a lot, now less so. It’s a good way to get films from services you aren’t subscribed to, but it’s also only as good as the availability of physical media.

My high school physics teacher, Mr Tolby, always had a cadre of students grinding telescope mirrors by hand from glass blanks. A candle was used to measure the accuracy of them to amazing precision.

When the mirrors were done, he'd send them off to get an aluminum coating, and then the students would get a tube and have their own telescopes.

It really was remarkable how low tech it was, and what fantastic results could be achieved.

I think it is a hobby worth defending, it is a hobby worth pursuing, and as a ham radio operator, I would like to see ARTL do a significant more work in legislation.

Based on the lobbying disclosure reports for their lobbyists over the past five years, and the 990s, I believe they have wasted significant amounts of money accomplishing nothing.

We NEED to open up more spectrum, encourage people to take up a hobby, teach radio theory, and operation in high school, lower the barrier of entry for getting a radio, there are many, many things that we need to do.

Wasting money on lobbyists while not achieving any proactive goal, such as a ham radio operator day, and spending $5000 a month to try to get that, is not good.
Worth noting that the breach happened before Musk; the title is prone to misinterpretation.
In some cases it is. Wachovia (acquired by Wells Fargo) laundered drug money: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/apr/03/us-bank-mexico...

> Primarily, these involved deposits of traveller's cheques in euros. They had sequential numbers and deposited larger amounts of money than any innocent travelling person would need, with inadequate or no KYC [know your client] information on them and what seemed to a trained eye to be dubious signatures. "It was basic work," he says. "They didn't answer the obvious questions: 'Is the transaction real, or does it look synthetic? Does the traveller's cheque meet the protocols? Is it all there, and if not, why not?'"
If that's true it is a shameful thing.

Come to Lisbon instead. We're not even that civilised but you certainly won't have trouble being served anywhere.
There are terms which apply when connecting to Second Life servers.

Those terms don't apply if you use the viewer to connect to non Second Life servers, such as Open Simulator. For Open Simulator, you have to deal with a somewhat grouchy lead developer who does not suffer fools gladly. (He's helpful if you don't waste his time. He ran a test region server for me and looked at what I was sending to get something to interoperate.)

Some viewers turn on extra features when talking to Open Simulator. The main one is "varregions". Second Life is divided into squares 256m on a side. Open Simulator supports other sizes. Also, there are several competing money and asset systems for Open Simulator grids, and third party viewers support those.

This is the metaverse at the level where it actually works.
The name FSD intimates an SAE Level 5 experience. It’s not partial self-driving or any other sort, but full. If there was any name to suggest it, this would be it.

Imagine going to an emergency department with chest pains/trouble breathing/thunderclap headache, and the triage nurse saying “oooooh yeaaaaah, I know emergency is in our name but we don’t really deal with that, you’re on your own”.

Things that are critical to life-or-limb should be appropriately named without the use of weasel words or asterisks.
Scam ran on YouTube last night – +$620k collected
Last night, I was on YouTube and on their main page, they had a channel called "[Twitter] - Tesla" with a live stream video (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxSUtFQHI3g -- no longer active). It looks like it was this video (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zwx_7XAJ3p0) that was taken over a year ago. It included a QR Code with a link to https://2023tesla.io.

It had the following:

- Doge: https://blockchair.com/dogecoin/address/DFR1qA9fqtFUthmWoN6yJoU6jJKgUBMZo6

- BTC: https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/address/12nPNAmZmHUwqT7CXt6CEa9c9kvcFHKm8a

- ETH: https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/addresses/eth/0xCCDE04BB2C95a7562deB0D74D4aC45B78C03F486

As of right now, it looks like over $620k has been scammed.

this is just an FYI
Great, but not relevant to this story. HN is a worse place when commenters use tangentially-related discussions as thin pretenses to spam their pre-written manifestos. Please stop.

And everyone else, please stop encouraging this.
The right are open about pushing 'it's worse than it's ever been'. The left prefers to memory-hole history and combine that memory hole with thought terminating hyperbole: They like to present threats completely divorced of historical context.

(I worked in political communications and spent a couple of years getting lists of stories and headlines from all sides of the aisle fed to my email.)

One example of this is all the fear-mongering the Dems/their media arms do around things like abortion rights or queer rights/safety. (And before anybody comes for me, I'm a lesbian so I'm impacted by both.) Like apparently I'm supposed to be constantly terrified by the backsliding on both. And they do concern me but like I grew up in the 90s? I personally remember things being worse and I wasn't curled up in a ball throwing money at the Dems to Save Me. (And speaking of memory holing, as a gay millennial I remember quite clearly how long it took for the Dems to get behind gay marriage: Let's not pretend the current socially progressive planks are anything other than realizing we're a voting bloc that can be pandered to as hard as the MAGA people. I have no doubt the Dems would throw queer people under the bus tomorrow if it were a more viable electoral strategy to do so.)
All things considered, there isn't much of a difference between 2012 and 2022 consumer computing. 4/8 cores, all pretty much clocked the same, maybe 8GB/16GB of RAM and 500GB of storage. At best, we optimized the process, optimized edge cases, but not it is certainly not an exponential leap.

Between 90-00, we went from 40MHz CPU to 1+ GHZ, 1GB to 100+GB storage capacity. A factor 25 for clock speed, and 100 for storage. By the 90-00 pace standard, in 2022, we would have 25GHz CPU, 1PB disk, but we topped at a few TB at best, consumer. D instruction per core went from 0.33 (1992, Intel i486DX), to 4.1 (2002, Pentium 4 Extreme Edition), to 8.46 (AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X), so in 20 years, we had less advancement (x2) than in 10 years (x12).

Beside that, Moore's law stated doubling of "metric" every 2 years, 20 years is 10 doubling period, so we should have scaled by a factor of 1000. So yeah, Moore's law is long dead.
People who get denied bail for robbing a store are very likely not on their first pass through the system. It's the repeat offender part that gets them denied bail. More than likely on the first pass they got RoR. Or their theft was violent. It's not just dollar amounts that count.
Federal law supercedes State law. That is why the Constitution is "the highest law of the Land".

It's also why so much is pushed for to be done at the Federal level, because it completely sidesteps the chance for States to make their own local laws on the matter. The danger there, is that as it turns out, different places/populations have different views on things, which often do not exactly line up with D.C.'s.

Hence why Federal overreach side of things has been a hot button topic in politics for decades.

What is a "firestorm viewer"?

Is a "viewer" a Second Life term for "game client"? And is Firestorm a particular FOSS client for the game?

If so, that's really interesting... like you can access the same shared Second Life world but through a custom client? Does it reuse existing game assets or you free to reinterpret character models, textures, effects, etc.?
I downvoted (and flagged) despite agreeing with the parent, for good reason:

Actually, you only need G2 continuity for the reflection to be continuous (yes, C2 is also G2 for regular curves).
The TOGA buttons are usually on the side of the thrust levers. It looks like the reverse levers in the photo are labeled TOGA.

The engines were at idle during an extended float; so it could take longer to spool up. The crew knew this, but that's five really important seconds.

Definitely should have waited for the kick in the pants before raising the gear.

In a heavy aircraft, things happen slower. The airspeed will decay slowly after raising the nose, but you will see some initial climb until gravity has time to assert itself. Increasing headwind will introduce transient increased airspeed masking the decaying energy situation.

I wonder why spoilers were not used, but don't know how that fits in with 777 procedures.
Yes.

But “wary of” and “weary of” both work. :-)

English is my third or fourth language, so I guess I’m less sensitive to mistakes like that.
One of the killer feature I expect to see in the future when we have FSD is that cities will take direct control of traffic in a central way. If cars can be distributed evenly over all roads with each driver getting an average distance/time-to-arrival the overall speed would significant increase, with car owners loosing the control to pick the shortest route in order to be allowed to use the roads in the city.

Centrally controlled FSD cars would also allow for much faster intersection since all cars could accelerate and break simultaneous. Both would require quite tight control and coordination that only computer controlled cars could do.
My account is permanently banned which makes it impossible for me to delete it. I’ve tried. They fired whatever team handles that stuff.

I wonder if a legal nastygram is in order and would get sufficient traction.
> What I don't understand, if everyone is going to pay for UBI, can't you basically just leave the UBI and be at the same point?

No.

I mean, if everyone paid a flat capitation equal to their UBI payment, sure, but if “everyone pays” because it is paid for out of general funds raised by a tax system which, even if it is a mix of various taxes, is approximated as a progressive tax on income, then, no, not at all.
I tried Takeout on my main account, and I have to say I'm surprised. Took about an hour to process and it allowed me to download everything.

While I was waiting on that, I finally paid for a proper email service and migrated my domain, so I have a copy of my Gmail data and a working, Google-free email service now.
I don't know if things have changed but the last time I tried SL the client was so rough and awkward it seemed like an alpha. Even moving was laggy and annoying.
Nobody ever said life was fair. You don't have to worry about bail if you don't commit crimes.

There was absolutely nothing in the comment to imply he derived "pleasure from seeing suffering." You are making that leap in bad faith.

I think the build-or-not argument might be more productive if the "YIMBY" side would acknowledge that a massive increases in housing density (and therefore population density) does have an effect on existing residents.

Height varies quadratically with radial frequency and radius, mediated by gravitational acceleration, (rv)^2/?2g. I'll venture you want a small curvature with a great deal of uniformity, the model also discounts variable viscosity with temperature and bizarre patterns that would appear with inconsistent anything, I suspect you're gonna want a control system, and probably also to shave the tails to acquire a lens compatible with the paraxial model of magnification.

> Would you say I don't "trust" the team by not allowing them to work in a silo?

Yes, this means you don't trust them.

As I've already said, I've been doing this for roughly 25 years now. I can tell the difference between a technical decision and a business decision.

Even the wording ... "by not allowing them" implies both that you don't trust them and you don't have enough respect for the authority you wield to avoid using it cavalierly. I mean "by not allowing them to kick kittens". Sure, if they're about to start kicking kittens, #savethekittens. Otherwise, let them work.

Because here's the thing. Shitty managers don't know they're shitty, if they did, they would stop being shitty because recognition is the first step to becoming a non-shitty manager.

Because it's one thing to tell me all of the developers are inexperienced and don't have these skills so you don't trust them. It's another to claim you DO trust them and treat them as if they're inexperienced developers.
I use a unique email address for every account I create on my domain. My provider (runbox) is so good at spam filtering, I can't tell if using unique emails has benefited me in any way. The only address that ever gets spam is the one I put on my homepage in plaintext. And I've been doing this for 12 years. Spam filtering is kinda amazing, but it hides the reality that I was trying to measure.

Hit me up sometime! DM’s open on Twitter. Definitely happy to meet up.
The US is on a slope of increasingly extreme nannyism. Which, if you know the history of the US (both its present culture and its common historical beliefs about itself), that has to be a fairly amusing thing to observe from the outside.

For numerous reasons, the US culture has been fractured by a tiny, very loud, hyper triggered minority that screams from the rooftops 24/7 on social media. The virtue signaling brigade. Also known as the squeaky wheel getting the grease (attention in this case). They work hard & persistently at it, they're loud, they often band together for pet causes, and they get the government and companies to bend to their pressure routinely.

It's leading to a very mentally fragile nation, of emotionally stunted individuals that can't deal with reality and require aggressive shielding from reality. This type of mediocre labeling outcome is indicative of the broader cultural erosion. It's simply no longer good enough to label that something "may contain" risk. It's going to get worse yet before it bottoms out.

Trust.

Think about it. People self organize into groups (mobs, etc) and there are "trust bonds" formed there. But, those groups - through processes of group think or whatever - generate world views which are opposed to those of other groups.

We have labels for them: Red, Blue, Democrat, Republican, and beyond that.

Now, on top of that, we have greed, power worship, and all manner of other human behaviors which infect some groups. Think: US politicians who lose elections then go bonkers to reclaim their losses.

Why concern yourself with "devs". We're humans (mostly) and suffer all the behavioral norms we see everywhere else. Trust in terms of devs, it seems to me, is a metric you apply through your own lens - your world views, and maybe those of which ever (if any) group to which you belong.
resizable <textarea> is generally quite a limited thing.

It would be significantly more useful if we would have universal <frameset>:

<frameset cols="200px,*>
<select type="list">...</select>
<textarea>...</textarea>
</frameset>

so to have split views.

Resizable textareas are quite trivial to implement with barebone JS but such split views require native support from browsers in order resizing to work effectively.
