Then why are there rich and poor sides of a town? In many cases, people earning high incomes spend extra time to drive past lower priced housing to get to their higher priced housing.

No one forced them to pay more than the minimum for housing.

Food deserts are not the result of theft. Food deserts exist outside of SF or other cities that are accused of being so soft on crime and all crime is legal. Food deserts are incredibly common in rural areas, especially as a result of their non-density. But hell, when I lived in Jacksonville( which is a consolidated city-county) I was 10+ miles from any grocery store. North side has developed a lot since I left and that is no longer true but in many rural areas the only places opening up are dollar generals which are taking advantage of the economics of whatever local grocery store is charging and offering an alternative to driving 30+ miles to the nearest Walmart. A sad state of affairs.

I live in Pacific County WA and it is an economically depressed area with an outsized cost of living. Groceries are absurdly expensive relative to the average income in the area and you could probably get the same groceries for half th price by driving to where the closest Walmart is( which is 30 or so miles from where I live.

Wasn't purchased in 2022 but I was just now talking to my wife about how great a purchase this had proven over the years. A Black Condor T&T Pouch. I tossed the map insert in the middle, the drawstrings inside, and the Molle attachment loops in the back, and it has served as a really fantastic organizer for pens, mechanical pencils, knives, erasers, Macbook dongles, precision screwdrivers, spudgers, and so on. Tough as nails. $30, available in lots of places.
An iPhone every few years is a very insignificant cost compared to a house.
The collapse of the Soviet union in the late 80s gave rise to a unipolar capitalist world. That reduced the propensity of governments and corporations to share with workers the big computer-tech fueled productivity gains realized from the 90s onwards. In the previous decades it was easier to workers to negotiate better conditions, as their employees feared they would become communist-friendly if too mistreated. With fear from communism gone, corporations and governments feel free to squeeze their employees, sabotage unions, etc cetera. So productivity gains now go straight to billionaires pockets, instead of reducing the working hours for the rest of us.

Americans should worry more about the NSA having their data than China, since the US government has much more power to negatively impact their lives. As for the list of horribles you attributed to China, I could come up with an even more impressive list of horribles committed by the US government. What's the point?
In Seattle there are many places that will do leases longer than 12 months e.g. my current lease is 36 months. It may not be the default but if you ask they are often amenable.
I'm a big fan of the German style of federalization, where federal agencies are spread out around the nation, instead of all being headquartered in one federal capital. The Ministry of Defence is headquartered in Bonn; the BfV in Cologne; the Bundespolizei in Potsdam.

There's no reason why we can't do the same in the US, and have the USDA be headquartered in Kansas City, the Treasury in New York, the DOT in Indiana, and Interior in Colorado. It would be a material step towards "draining the swamp".

Generally, supercomputers are used in problems where you need fast access to all or lots of a large dataset. I think a common example is weather simulation, where each grid cell needs to update based on its neighbors at each timestep.

That is exactly how to play DF. There is no winning. Just do what you want, see what happens. I'm working on creating the greatest library in the world, hoping to get elven and human visitors to learn and contribute even more knowledge.

I think it's more a case of constant ear bud usage packing in the wax and concentrating it. It got so bad for me, even the water tool they have at my doctor's office didn't work to remove it.
The focus on affordability in new housing is, I think, a glaring example of short-term thinking. I mean sure, those sparkling new condos that somehow managed to squeak by the municipal approval process (the length and cost of which are no small part of why they cost so much) may be out of reach for most people, especially newcomers. But with time—or even sooner after, say, I don't know, a recession?—what was once luxury condos may become decidedly middle-class housing.

NYC where I live is chock-full of housing developments which began either as affordable (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacDougal–Sullivan_Gardens_H...) or luxury (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ansonia) and that, with the vicissitudes of economic cycles and time, flipped their tax brackets (and sometimes more than once).

The point is, supply is supply and, given enough time, the economics will take care of themselves.

Not a unique answer, I'm sure, but you cannot feel good without exercising. The challenge can be that you don't realize how out of shape you feel until you're not, and starting to exercise can and usually does feel worse than none at all. Ideally you'll come to enjoy it, but it's a part of the maintenance required for having a human body.
What a bizarrely complicated argument to try to refute the most basic law of supply and demand.

Many economists have proven over and over that building more housing means that there are more places for people to live. The burden of proof is on you, since you are the one making outlandish claims.

The number of "underutilized properties" is likely a few percent in your area. "Most condos are empty and owned by foreigners" is a myth perpetuated by NIMBYs and conspiracy theorists.

Even if it was true, the best way to screw over these shadowy foreign empty-building-owning figures would simply be to build more housing so that it's not an artificially scarce investment asset. The value of their investment would plummet and they would have to sell it or take on tenants.
Its also possible that it is very hard to be truly homeless in the winter in many places in the USA, and being someplace warm year-round, makes being homeless easier. Just like being someplace that is less likely to arrest you for openly doing drugs in public. If you make it easy to do drugs without consequences, easy to live on the streets year round, you are pretty much guaranteed of getting more of those things.

I live someplace where it routinely gets well below 0F in the winter, for weeks on end - if you live someplace like that, you do your best to make different life choices if you do not have a death wish.
I've seen a lot of discussion about my choice of looking for a job directly after Highschool.

Reasons against college

- I recently visited a College Conference and wans't really impressed by any of them, mainly because their presented curriculum where basic js, css, html, react, easy leetcode algorithms which I already know

- I don't really happy with my current position in School, where I sit and listen to the teacher talking about a topic for an hour which I could teach myself with a 5 min youtube video

- Additionally my plan was to move to the US where Waterloo University would be 100k a year for non-us-citizen

- I've heard that after a few years of working as a Software Engineer the college degree doesn't matter anymore

- Having an income

- learning from experienced Software Engineers

Reasons for college:

- the life experience

- some people say getting a job without a degree is almost impossible

What do you guys think about this list?
Tbf many of them were pretty jaded/burnt out by trying to do academic research before fully taking the plunge. I'm sure there are smart people drawn by the money right out of the gate, but other fields have also done a really good job of driving people away.

Infrastructure costs must be much higher than Netflix.

YT has far higher storage costs, their content caches way worse and they have to pay for all the tech involved with Content ID, commenting, search over a much larger index, a slick upload/edit experience, ad handling, ad targeting, handling highly heterogenous content etc. This is an org that had to design their own ASICs to keep up with transcoding demand, it's just not in the same galaxy as Netflix in this regard.

That said, YouTube may still be profitable. I doubt even Google knows. When I worked there a long time ago execs were routinely asked about whether particular products were profitable and the answers made clear that they usually had no idea. Too much shared infrastructure that can't be clearly accounted to any one product, and many products justified with hard to measure things like making web search better.

People in the neighborhoods with fewer problems (let’s face it, there are many very quiet expensive neighborhoods in the Bay Area) have very “progressive” views on the homelessnesses. They don’t experience its effects frequently, so don’t think it’s a big problem. They vote for policies that grow social services for the homeless, even though those policies don’t work. But the idea they have is that these services just need more money. And then more money again, and again.

To some extent the purpose of this code is to demonstrate that while the s-box seems like 256 values in random order, it is actually the composition of multiple operations in finite field arithmetic. The values in the S-box I would argue are also based on "nothing up my sleeve numbers". The values all depend on the irreducible polynomial and the field size, as well as the specific affine transformation. Knowing the field size and irreducible polynomial, you can then make guarantees about the properties of numbers when transformed using an S-box.
IEEE Spectrum and Computer magazines are also good, the former is not programming or IT centric at all, of course, but it's almost always been a good read. Computer also often has a kind of "deep dive" feel in its issues, though not always.

The key to recovery is making them a part of a larger commitment to your overall health. You cannot simply take a drug and ignore the other aspects of your life.

Fellow ADHD'er here, and I am starting to realize this too. I made it through more than 2/3 of my life without treatment, but have sought treatment for almost a decade now. In hindsight, I am not actually sure the treatments really helped as much as I thought they did during those times. I sometimes wonder if the psychoactive effects of treatment merely make me perceive like I am more productive than I am in reality.

I believe the treatments obviously had an effect, but the benefits came with their own costs. Therefore, I feel like I have consistently had a net-gain of 0 improvement. Treatments seem to help with more physical symptoms than mental i.e., lessened hyperactivity but not much improvement in executive functioning.

I feel like I was promised a panacea with how doctors, research, and various anecdota describe the effects, but have been left with a more disappointing reality. I have been debating stopping treatment, but I fear there could be negative repercussions as well.

It's a very common mindset -- one of wealth being zero-sum. If you believe that for whatever reason, it's very easy to be against growth, because you think growth will come out of your own pockets.

They did cause it by moving there and building a life there (including building their gardens). If the city had remained a small backwater town, this problem wouldn’t exist because the farms are 75% and the 25% consumed by the city today would end up as surplus each year replenishing water supplies.

The farms predate all the new usage. The new usage from urbanization caused the deficit.

All knowelage today can be found on the web. And you will never have any use of 95% of the course. If you get emplyed you will find that you already know more then the people with an engendering degree. But I still recommend getting a engineering degree for two reason 1) those with a degree earns 25% more then you because they can get more job offers 2) university/college is good for your social life.

So if you already have many job offers (1) (you can negotiate a good salary) and already have a GF (2) reason 1 and 2 is already covered and thus you don't need uni/college.
I'm torn on this story. On one hand I'm really glad he got to keep using it personally out of the gate and eventually was able to later use it again for the intent it sounds like he gave when registering, couldn't ask for anything more for a short domain.

On the other his reasoning for not selling was really unrelated to any of that. His response was standard squatter logic - I registered it first and you have a lot of money + will actually use it heavily so I'm not selling unless it's for tens of thousands of times what I got it for. It wasn't like he responded "I think I will get more than 50k of use out of it" or "It's more than 50k of inconvenience for me to change my email" it was straight up "I replied that $50k should be the interest generated by the money someone pays for bud.com. This is a three letter, actual word, dot com domain, and if I’m going to see it on every beer can you make forever, I should at least be well compensated". Kind of ruins the inspiration when the thing he actually held out for was rent seeking.

On the third hand Budweiser is indeed really shit beer...

Exactly this. It is kind of always a little bit greasy, a little bit crispy burnt crumbs inside.

People hate being bored. This means if you make people have too much leisure time, they seek alternatives.

In the past, this was mainly family and community events.

As the strength of both the family and civic social institutions declined, we became dependent on businesses to provide us things our families used to (child care, elder care, parties, dinners, storytelling, entertainment, music, etc). These cause demand for more commercial businesses.

As the article states, all the commentators were envisioning a work week dominated only by making sure you had enough to survive. If people actually wanted this, they would be able to achieve it. However, people really want iphones, vacations, nice clothes, etc as well. So there is demand for labor, and where there's demand and a buyer with excess cash, we will step up.

Step 1) Buy 10-12 pairs of identical socks.

Step 2) Wear socks, when any of them wear out, throw them away. Even a single sock, no need to throw away in pairs

Step 3) When you're low in socks (my limit is 3 full pairs), throw them all away and GOTO 1

I do have a few specialised socks for hiking and winter, but they're the unicorns in the bunch, I just need 1-2 pairs of them.

These projections always read like something that would come from a person who doesn't understand where their food comes from, how much work goes into building and maintaining their housing, or that most people's preferred entertainment options require a lot of work to produce.

I could see us arriving at some of these extreme estimates if everyone universally agreed to eat the cheapest synthetic food we could produce with the most automation, live in the most bare-bones housing, and exclusively choose free or cheap entertainment and hobbies. But in the real world, it takes a lot of work to get food to people, build and maintain housing, and the things people like to do and own are also labor-intensive to produce at various stages.

There's definitely more room to squeeze labor out of the market through more automation, but that doesn't result in higher wages for people.
About [1]: I'm wrong. If you look at TLT in TradingView, adjusted for "dividends" vs. not, from 2003 to 2019 you see nominal gains of about 150% (with) vs. 40% (without). So most gain is from income. That's ignoring tax.

Would also be good to compare to CPI to understand real returns. Or whatever other number seems to be a truer measure of inflation (house prices, for example).

In this context, it refers to the gradient of the error function (which is a function of the parameters).

In other words, for each tuple of parameters you can estimate the direction in which the reduction in the resulting error would be steepest.

Gradient descent is then a method whereby you iteratively move towards better and better parameterisations, by following the direction of the (negative) gradient at each step, which guarantees you will reach a local minimum much more efficiently than if you sampled new parameters in the area of the previous iteration at random.

And if your error function is convex, the minimum error is a global minimum.
> Zfs on linux is still not ready for primetime on root partitions

Not sure where you got this from. OpenZFS on Linux is considered stable by the project. It has been rock solid, free of major issues, and considered more than ready for prime time since at least 0.8, and probably much earlier. It’s now at 2.1.

I’ve been using it across multiple environments, including my personal laptop and workstation which maintained the same root-on-ZFS install for 6+ years, including 2 full migrations to new hardware using zfs send. I’ve deployed much larger pools in professional settings and they’ve been rock solid.

Btrfs has had numerous data loss issues in that time. I can only recall one data loss issue in a ZFS on Linux release, several years ago, which was caught very quickly.
