While I see where you're coming from about shifting risk around, I disagree with its applicability to what I said. The amount of risk can still be increased/decreased by changing the fundamentals. The straightforward way to reduce the risk of running out of slack in the system is to have more of a buffer to begin with, which is why I mentioned reserve requirements.

Furthermore I'd argue that insuring deposit banks through the asset-limited FDIC is yet another setup to socialize catastrophic losses. If bank deposits were guaranteed by the Fed directly, the Fed could print an unlimited number of dollars to make depositors whole, thus completely eliminating the risk that a USD-denominated deposit simply vanished. (The realized damage would instead be expressed as monetary inflation)
Similar story here! I got the PRCTZ brand dumbbell from walmart (online). I just got one ($75), and it's adjustable from 5-25lbs (they have a heavier version too).

I started playing online video games with a friend and his son, and they do one exercise between each game. Pushups, sit ups, dumbbells, etc. After a 90 minute gaming session, I've also done one circuit of exercises.
I would add barbell row to those four.
If you continued to invest in Japan throughout that period after, you'd be up today. The only case you were forever screwed is if you really aren't pouring more money into that (e.g. retirement).

Has there been any word on a timeline for the MacOS Steam version?
Well, it is fairly impactful in that if the automatic stair generation puts a down stair where an up/down stair should have been, there is no way to completely fix it. You can build the correct stairs, but it will never be carved out of natural rock since that rock has been removed. Call me crazy, but that's a distinction that matters to me in what is effectively a procedural story generator.

More generally, it speaks to a level of sloppiness that tells me I'm better off waiting a couple of years. I've played a lot of buggy DF builds over the years. It's just part of the experience, but I don't have as much free times as I used to so I'd rather wait than play through the bugs these days.
I don’t think that’s the main point of the article (though it is addressed).

The problem with Nicespeak is it becomes a mandatory form of expression. See, for example, mission statements at universities (TFA). Without these obligatory technocrat documents, universities will be stripped of funding and accreditation.

To provide a slightly more contemporary take, see the censorship/moderation debate in public discourse today. I think a direct line can be drawn between societal Nicespeak and our almost compulsive need to scrub social media et al. of anything sufficiently nonconformist.
Seems like a smart way to do it, but that relies on having another always-on system standing as the server. OP's solution only requires the one device, the rPi unless something needs to be changed.

This is also at core the problem with the current movements against "making moderation political." Moderation is inherently ideological for the same reasons; there is no neutral position from which to do it because it involves making decisions about what may be included. A specific moderation policy may be terrible but "it's political" can't be the reason, because it applies to all of them.

Same thing with "correct" dialects of english, norms around hospitality, civility, showing respect etc. You can establish what is most common and demand people adhere to it, but that doesn't make it neutral.

The influx of loyalists was a couple of generations before the 1837 rebellions in both Upper and Lower Canada. Yet another generation elapsed before home rule with responsible government was devolved from Westminster and a few more before Canada was considered "independent" from the centralized Empire by the Statute of Westminster in 1931.

A century is a pretty long time for your argument about the beliefs of some individuals to stay valid.
Yes, I understood that it was "hardware" as in a fundamental constraint of the physical controller, but appreciate the clarification.

Certainly if it had been enforced by the console firmware, then it would be a no-brainer that emulators should do it.

Funny story about this actually is that a while ago I was retrofitting an old dance mat to be an XInput device via a Teensy, and I ran into a constraint where XInput's d-pad support only allowed one direction to be set at once, which obviously doesn't work for that use case. I ended up giving up and having the Teensy emulate a USB keyboard instead. (This was for use with Stepmania and Necrodancer on PC.)

You're raising very valid questions. It seems to me that we'd need to have continued breakthroughs in science, technology, medicine, etc. in order to drive sustainable increases in economic growth.

Forecasters have predicted the end of innovation at many points, but humans do seem to have a knack of finding something new and valuable.
Good, are you missing any features?
I will read it, looks super interesting!!
Growth isn’t solely tied to use of finite resources. Services also count. Two people can exchange a service, say a massage, which extracts zero finite resources, and at the same time, creates economic output.

The whole point of them is that they cook quickly, and without oil. Small units are good for 1-2 people, but it won't prepare enough for a family of more than 3, thus the existence of larger units.

It's a literal "solve the 90% problem first" but right wing people like to blame democrats pointing with one finger while pocketing cash from their industrial, eco-killing practices with the other hand.

This is exactly why I like the concept behind AdNauseam, the UBlock Origin fork that will click every single ad it encounters (but still hide the actual ads).

I'm sure advertisers have had to invest into detection algorithms because of that addon.

Note that Google removed AdNauseam from their Chrome Store for interfering with their ad business. The fact they removed AdNauseam but not uBlock Origin is a good sign that the addon is doing something right!
You're demanding an awful lot out of a $10/mo product here. And I think you're missing the forest for the trees. It's still an as-good-or-better search engine than Google with no ads and a focus on privacy.

The fact that it lists ballpark prices rather than exact prices is really not that important in the grand scheme of things.
GPT-3 is a synthesis of written human culture. Whatever it makes, it comes from us. I see it like a magical mirror into the soul of humanity. When it makes a good story I am very happy because it means I found a path into its deeper levels.

I'm kind of disappointed with the strict training they put on chatGPT, it is always the same canned formula, almost aways uses phrases like "in conclusion" and "however, ...". The stories are all 5-6 phrases and have no details. The original Davinci model from 2 years ago was more creative, but harder to direct.
I agree that the rule is basically worthless, but my point was more that Canada had an exceptionally loyal population, and disproportionately so compared to what we coule expect from a "normal distribution"! It can, in part, explain the rift between the US and Canada :)

It's not usually landfills which are the vector for this kind of leak, it's second-hand disk sales. This includes both decommed hardware and items scavenged from failures: often the failure was transient, or in the chassis; the maintenance vendor will test and resell the disk if it passes. They are supposed to be wiped, but this takes a long time and is almost never verified so the process is often incomplete.

Some such vendors have a blanket destruction policy for old hardware, but this obviously means higher prices, so it's usually only borne by medical and military institutions. And there have been notable cases where this was supposed to happen but the disks ended up on eBay, unwiped, regardless.

SSDs make this even more likely because they have pools of storage which are screened off from normal access but are typically readable through special code in the firmware; as failing sectors are swapped out, sensitive plaintext can remain behind, unable to be wiped by a conventional dd-style blast. (HDDs have this too, but in much smaller quantities.)

Hello guys!

I'm currently transitioning from 9 to 5 to being a full Digital Nomad. Could you share the most practical way you've done to achieve it in < 6 months?

And also how to know where to start? or handle feeling alone, and can't ask for help? would love to hear and learn from you, thanks
The "About this book" tells you what the book covers. The whole book is available for you to peek at if you don't trust it to correctly summarize itself.

As you would expect, Rust does have concurrency primitives, which is why the book shows you how they are implemented and why they are implemented they way they are. In doing so it also teaches you how to do low level things for when you can't use the language provided primitives, like if you're interacting with FFI boundaries or implementing your own lockless datastructure.

Your comment is like seeing a link to "Learning Rust With Entirely Too Many Linked Lists" and reacting with "what language doesn't have linked lists?"

Edit: I see that you might have meant "why would I reimplement Rust's atomic primitives in another language". Well, some documentation is needed for anyone that will have to implement those language primitives, in existing languages (because there are undressed needs) or in new ones. More documentation and explanation of tricky concepts is good.
Is encrypting your code and pushing that to GH an option or am I missing something obvious.

I saw this on the doors of my local shopping mall:

MALL HOURS

hours are available online

Followed by a huge QR code. Um, no. It's really inconvenient to have to grab a phone, scan a code, wait for the slow site to load, give apologies to others who want to walk in the door, etc.

Oh, and let's say I get there before they open. Before I could just drive by and see the hours on the door. Now I have to stop, get out, scan the code, ...

It's a small gripe for sure, but those are my favorite types.
It's a Google Drive link, so it could very easily be a PDF or docx or anything with executable code; and I avoid reading random PDFs online unless they're provided by a reputable source. I also didn't click the super long link here.

And, since it's Google Drive, I don't want to deal with having to open the link in a private browser. For the person saying "isn't it easy just to open it in a private browser?" sure; but it's also friction I don't feel like dealing with, especially since it could easily be a PDF or whatever and my concerns remain.
There's probably lots of texts out there about the next steps how to improve ChatGPT, and it simply would recite some of that?

It could help the curious person learn a bit, but wouldn't add anything that wasn't already known.

As long as I have been browsing the English-language Internet the overall mood among Americans has been that the S&P500 and US dollar hegemony will collapse in a month.

Interesting example.

I am ESL but had English all through school and used it all my professional life. What we were never taught formally though was pronunciation, and various vowel sounds, and emphasis on syllables and words.

Out of interest I watched a few youtube videos about spoken (American) English in adulthood and realized the above.

This was true before the 20th century but my opinion is that instant communication, payment and relatively fast weapons delivery meant for over a century now this rule is no longer valid. Your empire can be as big as you want it to, even expand to the moon but probably not beyond. The limiting factor now is the appetite for war and conquest by a population that can communicate and organize efficiently to overthrow or change rulers as well as interference from global nuclear powers.

> many private schools don't have that much additional capacity

In terms of teachers, maybe not, but in terms of facilities, any school that was around in the 70s-80s should have plenty of classrooms and lockers. And I imagine that as public schools shrink, there will be teachers looking at those jobs.

Adjusting for reinvested dividends refers to an assumption that the cash dividends paid out by a company are re-invested to buy more shares of the stock. The concept being that a company can pay out a cash dividend or use that money to invest / grow their business. Therefore, to calculate a "total return" we need to factor in the price increases of a stock + the dividends that were paid by the company.
I understand "ossification of systems consolidation of power" as centralized planning, which is socialism, as opposed to laissez-faire capitalism. But, I'm guessing you mean something else. What do you mean?
How so? A summary by a random person on the internet *here*, is probably even worse than a summary where ChatGPT was given exactly the content of that text and asked to summarize it.

ChatGPT is probably even better than those random Reddit news article summaries that were all the rage for a while.

These companies have huge swathes of cash that need to be managed. Google for example has a large team of (renowned, fwiw) economists, among them Hal Varian [1], doing among other things revenue forecasts which would take the state of the economy into account. I would hazard a guess that MS (and thus its CEO) does have more insight into the economy than a random person.

Does absolutely not mean that economists are necessarily great at forecasting, but they are professionals fwiw.

> The expense of the canisters is bad, but if you go to a welding & gas supply store they'll refill the canisters for much less than soda stream charges for a fresh one.

Yes, but it still adds up to more in the end. The cheapest within driving distance I've found [1] is half the cost to refill the sodamistic 60L bottle from what sodamistic charges, and almost half the cost of refilling the 5LB tank, but the 5LB tank holds 5x more CO2, so after 2-3 refills you're already losing money compared to a DIY solution when accounting for cost of the whole setup.

It's not so much copyright expansion as it is copyright re-affirmation. In this case it is especially open source authors whose rights are in play. Keep in mind that all of open source relies on copyright, without that everything is PD from Microsofts point of view, if they hosted it. Think of Copilot as a trial balloon, if they get away with it they will likely use that as the stepping stone to the next level and bit by bit your rights are salamied out of existence.

That's an excellent way to put it. The "paradox" branding has always seemed flawed to me, like it's making the concept more complicated than it needs to be and opening up the position to claims of hypocrisy . But tolerance doesn't work that way - if we become tolerant of intolerance, then we've given up our goal. Tolerance should be an active effort to fight against intolerance, not an indifferent armchair theory.
