I think there is a fair bit of discussion on software fragility under the rubric of "robust" software in the SE literature -- sort of the negative space of what you are looking for, but within that topic, causes of fragility are examined.

Sussman wrote an essay in 2007 called "Building Robust Systems" https://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/users/gjs/essays/robust-sys... it's not study, admittedly, but an example of the term under which you might find what you're seeking.
How would that work? Businesses are liable if they trade with an entity that isn't on the OFAC list but turns out to be a shell company of a restricted entity? Each company needs to not only do KYB and ensure compliance with OFAC lists, but also somehow figure out UBOs for every customer too?

Sounds like a lot of work to me, probably not viable for any but the biggest companies, and even they would struggle.
Well maybe Utah needs to vote in a technocrat from "Silicon Slopes" as their next governor.
"Please listen closely, as our menu options have changed. Did you know you can check your account balance, order checks, apply for a loan, or get a new debit card online? Visit w w w dot your bank name dot com forward slash banking for more information." ---> Please hang up before we actually have to make somebody pick up the phone

"Due to the ongoing pandemic, for the safety of guests and staff we will not make up your room unless requested" ---> Thank god, we can cut our cleaning staff

"Due to the ongoing drought conditions, water will only be served for customers who request it" ---> We wash half as many glasses this way

COVID in general was a great excuse for a lot of companies to do something they've wanted to do for years (reduce business hours, cancel contracts, cut staff, reduce stock on hand, etc.) while acting like they're doing the world a favor.
I helped my building build a simple PoE + wifi access points network and I was surprised at how cheap (~$150) it was and how effective. Makes me think that all the name-brand-Eero-style wifi extender stuff is pointless if you can take just a few more steps to install this kind of thing (which is not hard, but of course depends on your walls/configuration).
Pathfinder 2e seems to me like it was designed to only retain superficial elements from the D&D SRD. I wouldn't be surprised if Paizo had a plan for how to jettison the remaining content right from the start. So if this is meant to take PF out I think it's a foolish error (just like the existence of Pathfinder itself was due to their foolish error with the 4e licensing!).
Maybe he's trying to create that reality by making this statement now. i.e. a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Therefore investing mechanically in the whole world might be a safer bet. Other than currency risk, home bias investment never felt like the optimal approach to me, even if your home is the world’s most powerful economy.
I find that mods who are heavily invested in a community tend to be worse, doing things like getting into arguments with users and then banning them. Obviously you mileage may vary, but most of the times I've seen this happen it's been used to kneecap mods I'd consider to be "power tripping". /r/linux is another example.
The testing thing can be really horrible. This was my first year teaching AP Microeconomics.

Students depend upon doing well on that test, and the college board has crammed the class full of a whole lot of topics.

I had a group of students who were in love with game theory even before the class, and as an individual I love the topic, too. But all the time I could spend on it was half a class period, and only the very boring cases involved in analyzing oligopoly behavior... Because we had to get back to all the edge cases in monopolistic competition and practicing how to write answers to free response questions in the very formulaic ways that we can be sure the graders will give credit for. I feel like I was forced to teach a less engaging and useful class than I'd have liked to.
I bought Ikea Fyrtur motorized shades on my south facing windows. Individually less than $200. These can also be trimmed down (if you're brave) to fit smaller windows, and are available in a variety of sizes. Being able to connect them to home automation to manage heat in south-facing rooms is fantastic.
For what it's worth, I can see it and it's been over 11 hours.

I find it really interesting what people consider political/apolitical these days, even things that weren't before. If somebody says they like to drink orange juice, that's currently an apolitical statement. If somebody else comes out and says that drinking orange juice is a bad thing to do, and gives a political reason for it, the first person suddenly "becomes political" by virtue of enjoying orange juice and talking about it, even though that wasn't political before. Why should the opinions of dissenters have the power to turn someone's otherwise apolitical statement political?

(Now compare that allegory to somebody who said "Since this is the internet and you cannot see me, please know that I'm a he/him" on a BBS in 1985. That was an apolitical statement. But now, saying it on your social media in 2022 it's political? How come?)
As far as I can find Apple does not advertise an official Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) for them though there are some review sites claiming they have a NRR of about 22-23, comparable to basic foam earplugs. I personally wouldn't rely on them for anything where you actually _need_ hearing protection - shooting, loud machinery, etc.
But can you seriously deny that everything the model generates is a derivative of the inputs? And if it's a derived work, it might not constitute "fair use" of the input materials. That depends on.... well, I'm not a copyright lawyer, so I won't attempt to specify, but I don't think we have any clear answers yet.
They never should have OGL'd PF 2E. There was no reason. If they were making a breaking system update, they could've made the changes to do without it. WotC doesn't have a copyright on using a 20-sided die or else no game would exist.

Dumbest decision I've seen Paizo make since the last one.
Never considered that. But now I am curious, how did you pick the stylist? Not even sure how I would find one lol

The FDIC has already come perilously close to running out of money once. It can happen again.

I believe risk can be moved around, but it can't be eliminated. This is probably fairly mainstream Wall Street analysis, too. I also believe that all attempts to move around risk must also increase it on the net, e.g., if you do the extremely popular financial move of taking a modest chance of modest loss and stuffing all the risk into a small chance of total loss and then hoping that just never happens, that the total risk has increased. This is probably less mathematically provable, and depends on a lot of assumptions about how one compares various classes of risks. (I base my thinking on a variant of what you might call the "more or less efficient market hypothesis"; if there was a way to net reduce risk overall, it would probably already have been taken.)

The bank abstraction you refer to is in my opinion in that class of "extremely popular financial moves". Yes, it removes the modest risk of partial loss, but it moves the risk entirely into a small chance of total loss when the entire system comes down instead. I worry about the net effect of millions of little financial transaction that all perform that particular risk management move. It ends up creating a lot of easily-hidden correlations in the system, and no one entity (let alone person) can have a view of the whole situation.

In the end, the risk is moved around, but the bank run is still a possibility and no amount of financial abstraction can truly remove the fact that the liquidity term mismatch is a fundamental aspect of such an operation that can't be erased, only managed.

None of that requires a non-grid based approach.

Really depends on what you're doing re: homelab. Linode's pricing is still way more than what you're gonna pay for your own hardware at just about any tier. My home server is 16 core/64 GB and I use most of that to host stuff. It cost about $1250 in parts and about $10/mo in electricity. Linode's monthly pricing for a dedicated instance 16 core/32 gig shared CPU is $160/mo, so the breakeven point is around a year for slightly worse hardware. I expect to get at least 5 years of use out of this hardware so it's not even close.

Even on the lower end a recycled mini-PC will run you like 100 bucks and get you 8 core/8 GB memory and negligible power. Versus the cheapest Linode plan at $5/mo for 1 core/1 GB. That's more competitive and might work for some people but even then self-host is still viable. Your own time is valuable of course, but most of the time in my experience is not dealing with the hardware itself, it's setting up the software and maintaining it. Which you still have to do with Linode.
A long time ago, naive me learned that tech companies also invest their money and that those returns count toward their valuation, and that seems wildly backwards to me, but I'm an engineer, not a financial expert.

I'm tempted to dispute whether the Carolignian Empire was too big per se. If you put the capital at Lyon (or Geneva), everything is fully reachable in a month on this graph. The problem, rather, was that Lyon was never made the capital (rather Metz in the far north), or at least not in time to prevent fragmentation.

If you take Russian Empire/USSR for example, most of the territories which have been lost are much closer to Moscow (Ukraine, Poland, Finland, Belarus, Georgia etc.) than the territories still under Moscow control (Siberia), so at least in the Russia's case, it's not about transportation at all.
No, I didn't say that. It holds up for most of history, except for a fairly small window of ~50 years where communication was faster than travel (after that travel was fast enough that almost anywhere was less than 1 month away).
> but in the end the bottleneck is human - there's no way you can get anywhere close to espresso pressure (not just 9 bars, anywhere near 9 bars) with your arm.

Not just human either, the aeropress' plastic isn't built to withstand high pressures and it's going to buckle, to say nothing of whatever you put the press on.

Hoffman measured the prismo at 1.3 bars after adding a paper filter to the metal filter.
Even less than that if you account for taxes.
> Someone investing at age 18 might care about the subsequent 50 years.

I get what you are saying, but your math here is a bit off.

50+18 = 68.

People generally can live longer than 68 years old, If we go out on longevity and assume people can live to 100 or 120, then it's more like 100 years.

Your next thought is, but people will retire before/around 68, fair enough, but they stay invested generally the entire rest of their lives.

So if the US dominance ends in the next 100 years, then today's teenagers might need to care about it. People in their 30's or 40's probably don't though.

The next 150 years, you are right todays teenagers might not need to care, unless many/all of our aspirational longer living goals happen.
>urban water use is not the problem even if it's what people see every day

Urban water use (e.g. your lawn and your golf course) generates almost no taxable activity. Agricultural water use magically something that was of no value to the state into revenue.

I have no hope the state curtails agricultural use before everything falls apart. It will however, curtail urban water use long before they get around to anything serious about agriculture. Look at how fisheries have historically been managed. First they make it hard for the small time operators who are of no concern to the state. Then they let it run until it collapses. Then with that revenue already gone they finally get off their butts and implement something. Then 30yr later things maybe start working again.

I hope I'm wrong, but in the absence of hardliner ideologues following the money is a very accurate predictor of how large sociopathic entities comprised of many humans who are "just doing their jobs" (e.g. states) act.

Also, aliens could live a lot slower (say if they evolved in a relatively cold corner of the universe where there’s less energy to burn per second) and/or longer.

Looking at some ‘aliens’, I don’t think ant colonies can cover an area equal to a month’s travel.

⇒ I would guess “1 month” isn’t the limiting factor. “1/p of the life expectancy of a grownup” makes more sense to me. p then would be around 500 (500 months is about 42 years)

Depends on your use case, but for me, absolutely not. The btrfs manual says RAID5 “should not be used in production, only for evaluation or testing. The power failure safety for metadata with RAID56 is not 100%.”

No, I’ve never tipped them. Once asked if that was expected and she said no.

I believe Men’s and Women’s is 8-10% commission rate, but believe Kid’s is higher. Shopping in Men’s a single jacket from Armani runs about $1500-1800, formal trousers in the $350-500 range, decent jeans or shirts seem to be in the $150-250 range, tees they carry from e.g. Robert Barakett around $70.

It adds up and I feel like it’s hard to get out of there with a few new outfits for under $2000. It’s worth using their loyalty program [1] and worth considering their store card, although “Icon” status means spending >$15k per year on their store card.

If you end up liking Zegna then you’re up into the stratosphere at $3500-5500/ea for many of their items.

I guess it’s possible tips are appreciated if you’re going to visit, take an hour of their time and emerge with one $70 tee at the end? That’s not been my shopping experience, I don’t wear Zegna, but I usually buy a few pairs of Paige jeans and some Bugatchi shirts, perhaps a new merino wool pullover, probably some shoes. By the time I’m ready to spend 90 minutes in Nordstrom shopping and getting the tailor to measure for alterations, I’m usually looking for enough new stuff that the stylist will make $200-500 in commission.

I care about safety in my C++ code, thanks. What I'm saying is that all of the boogeyman stories about terrible C++ code generally don't apply to modern C++ if you work within its idioms -- memory corruption bugs are few and far between, and easy to find and fix.

I've certainly seen truly awful C++ codebases, full of undefined behavior and stack and heap corruption. It's possible to write very bad unsafe C++ code; it's also possible to write safe C++ code without much difficulty.

As far as design patterns: fair point that design patterns and idioms may be different in Rust but... what are they??? Fundamentally, in an application, some parts are going to read some data while another part owns it. How does that work in Rust? I haven't seen good answers yet. With procedural information processing utilities those concerns don't come into play as much, but I'd love to read about the architecture of well-functioning Rust GUI app.

I would imagine most of the very large companies have a treasury group that's managing their excess cash etc and that those people are probably offering lots of opinions on general economic direction. Couple that with contact with lots of their peer group doing the same, the economic consulting groups they're all hiring and contact with a bunch of bankers and I'd assume they'd start feeling they have an opinion. Add to that what they see in their own business when they're broad enough and I'd see why they'd start expounding on the topic

You're correct, just about all "new" cassette decks contain Tanashin-originated components. Even reputable brands like Panasonic (National), TEAC, Son, Aldi & AllyExpress all use the same crappy mech.

Techmoan has been shown that nearly every "new" tape-playing device these days all contain the same lousy mech, some not even capable of stereo playback!

VWestlife covered the "world's first Bluetooth capable portable cassette player" which is a few years old now but also uses a lousy mech (mono!).

Cassette audio today seems to be more about the experience and social aspects of making, trading, and playing tapes ( Ala Guardians of the Galaxy style )rather than getting the best quality audio.

The situation is the same as an entry level teacher in non-charter schools in a lot of places, but this isn't universally true of charters. I'm not even trying to say that charters are always better, it's pretty clear that on balance they're roughly similar in terms of outcomes across all charters. That said, the really good ones absolutely outperform their peer schools by miles, and at least in NYC charters receive 28% less funding per pupil.
