> Banks have absolutely no incentive to provide money to everyone that wants to borrow all their future life earnings now, not because of hard limits on their funds but because they want their lending to be repaid at a profit (when it won't be, you get 2008).

2008 happened because clearly the banks do have that incentive. The only thing that stops them are the regulations.

> The "reserve requirement" (technically replaced by a capital requirement) isn't something central banks tinker with,

In the last two decades that requirement was adjusted at least 5 times in my country so tinkering with it is definitely a tool that some central banks use. In the nineties it was even set to 30% to quench hyperinflation.

> Central banks were created to stop banks with solvent loan portfolios collapsing due to demands on their reserves, by ensuring banks could always borrow the reserves to back up the numbers on their spreadsheet.

First formal central bank, The Bank of England was created to finance the war. Central banks gradually acquired their modern roles as they developed.

The role you so much focus on is called being 'lender of last resort' to private banks. Private banks use it only if they can't get money cheaper anywhere.

> they influence credit action by adjusting the price of borrowing those reserves, and thus the demand for credit in the wider economy.

That the thing they do most often but not their most powerful tool.

Is it NixOS doing it or is it e.g. systemd-networkd? (Sounds like something systemd would do.)

While I’m confused as to why the boot would need to decide on a MAC address (VM or cheap SBC without a burned-in address? the first case might be easier to correct from the outside), the general state of NixOS is that some things are very flexible while others only cover some common cases (ones that the original author needed to solve). Unlike a traditional distro where the package manager will complain if you replace distro-provided stuff, in NixOS it’s entirely possible to override parts that don’t work for you rather than paper over them with programmatic overrides like these. It’s not even hard to upstream your changes if you make them backwards-compatible, although the benefit can be limited because the testing is not particularly thorough so other changes may still inadvertently break them.

Long ago we had a contrasting experience. It had been assumed that the implemented "database" (not a general database) for storing nuclear spectroscopy data was needed because the filesystem was too slow. However, one of our "physicist programmers" decided to do the experiment, and found it wasn't so, and the system was re-designed around directories of files of spectra.

On the other hand, the other facility in the lab had consulted Logica on storage of similar data, who viewed x-y (or multiple dependent variables) data as tables suitable for storage in their early RDB, Rapport. That wasn't actually used in production, and the storage format for the table model was unfortunately usually mangled by data acquisition systems writing files.

The n-2 bit is unnecessary and misleading because we've already established that an index can be swapped with itself.

for i in [0..n-1]
swap(a[i], a[rand in [i..n-1])

where rand in [I..n-1] coud be implemented as i + (rand() % (n-i))

essentially start with your finger at 0, pick a card from the unpicked set which is everything on and after your finger, swap that card with your finger, move your finger up one card
It gives you a pretty similar result in the end. From my understanding, with 'sudo -i', you're still using sudo itself to run commands as root (or any other specified user).

'sudo su -' instead executes the 'su -' command, giving you a root shell, as a superuser with 'sudo'. If you left the 'sudo' out, you'd have to type the root password.
My stance is to tell "go fck yourself" to anyone who offers me suggestions on how to live my life.

SIM Wong Hoo, Creator of Sound Blaster Has Died
I'm from Argentina. Our incomes comes basically from agriculture and livestock, we export almost all (we produce food for 10 times our population, estimated)

Anyway I'm very sure that in some years the country incomes will plummet, because the technification. We are not doing anything against the fact that climate change, wars and technology are driving us to a point that every country can grow their own meat or grain on their own land.

Now farming this indoor is expensive, but in few years importing will be higher, and the technology to produce that indoor, on your own land will be cheap.

Now, we are having a really bad bad drought that cut our income expectation by 40%, soy beans prices will be really high this year, other things like wheat, corn, etc maybe will be not affected because our market is Latin America (prices will be for them). Cattle is dying becaue ethe lack of water, but anyway we are so stupid country that we don't have the number of livestock we had decades ago.

So, now could sound stupid, not in the future, and definitely not if you can think about permanent bases on Mars for example.

I gave up trying to find a root cause for this after a couple of days of rabbit holes and yak shaving. NixOS is simply too impenetrable once you fall off the happy path (which is unnervingly often).

The next time I rebuild this server, I'll go back to Ubuntu or Debian and use build scripts for "good enough" determinism. For the time being, I just run everything important in LXC and Docker containers on top of this delicately balanced NixOS hypervisor for as long as it'll last.

Not really, wars between Christian states prior to the reformation were generally tame by comparison (obviously there were many exceptions). It's partly due to the reasons you've mentioned: total war and complete conquest were rare so you didn't want to be too extreme when raiding your neighbors territory since even if you don't get to keep it you might be the target next year.

Also there was this chivalry thing about avoiding to kill your opponents and treating them fairly after they were captures. Obviously this mainly applied to knights, the rich and the upper class. But paroling or holding ordinary soldiers for ransom was not rare either (due to reciprocity and because it was profitable) since most soldiers were professionals fighting for money and not poor peasants.

The church generally was a moderating influence as well (as long as the war wasn't against heretics or heathens).

Mongols on the other hand were extremely cruel even by the standards of the day (generally even the crusaders were much more tame in comparison)
Not necessarily. AWS engineers cannot access your encryption keys unless you give them explicit permissions. They even offer Nitro enclaves where AWS Engineers can never access your keys.

Giving access to customer data to your staff by default is a design decision and can be avoided. However, in the end, it is a cost-benefit analysis where you have to decide how much you care about your customer's security. I have worked for enough start-ups/growth companies to know the value put on customers' security is sometimes shockingly low.

Just to point out most of these "fallacies" you describe are just you disagreeing in this case. You don't believe ascribing guilt or privilege based on ancestry will lead to the holocaust again so you say its a slippery slope, however there are many historic examples where ascribing guilt or blame based on ancestry has justified mass killing (jews, kulachs, china purge, etc.). Im not saying the GP is righr just that these arent necessarily logical fallacies, just your interpretation (but being justified by dubious claims of invalid logic). He did not say "this will inequivocally lead to the holocaust" which is a strong logical claim that coukd be fallacious, but instead, "this kind of thinking is similar to thunking that justified the holocaust". Actually in a strange way you strawmanned the GP argument by not observing context and nuance.

And just as an aside it feels a bit hollow to list it out like this. It reads like a code review from the junior that just finished reading a book on design patterns or code smells. Direct engagement and counterpoint addressing the substance of the argument could be less gimmicky.

> fabrication, made up from folk tales, oral testimonies without proof and just made up bullshit

I believe most of what we know about the alleged Holocaust was also from oral testimonies. And I don't think they were cross-examined at all in Nuremberg? Other highly suspicious sources include a young girl's diary.

You sound very biased to assume that only side did propaganda. You have an extremely provocative theory, that the alleged massacres of Katyn and Holodomor didn't happen, very interesting.

It's also quite damning that skepticism of this event has been brutally criminalized.

Looking around his page, I see some interesting aspects on his atom page:

https://daverupert.com/atom.xml

First, he sends it with a "content-type: application/xml" header. In contrast to most sites that send it with "content-type: application/atom+xml". Which seems to have the nice effect that it renders in Firefox instead of opening the usual "What should Firefox do with this file?" popup.

Secondly, he provides this nice header text "Yahaha, you found me! This is my RSS feed.". It seems to be fetched via this part of the code:

<?xml-stylesheet href="/pretty-feed-v3.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>

Pretty nice. Are those best practices? Or will "content-type: application/xml" mess with users who have a native feed reader installed and expect the reader to kick in when they click on a feed url?

Its a problem that's trivial if you are allowed to allocate an array/list that's the same size as the input but tricky if you have to do the operation in place (unless you already know the fisher yates algorithm).

Pumped hydro needn't bee toooo slow, here's one in wales

"From standstill, a single 450-tonne generator can synchronise and achieve full load in approximately 75 seconds. With all six units synchronised and spinning-in-air [...], 0 MW to 1800 MW load can be achieved in approximately 16 seconds.[13] Once running, at full flow, the station can provide power for up to six hours before running out of water"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinorwig_Power_Station#Specifi...

16 secs ain't too lazy. IIRC they have a spun-up metal flywheel to take the load in those few seconds before handoff to the hydro, though I can't find a reference.

In my non expert opinion it is difference in what model tries to predict, at least in some contexts.

For example in Reinforcement Learning P(R | A, S), eg. probability of reward given action and state, while in Bayesian network P(A | B, C), probability of even A given B, C distributions, in such networks you can do inferences.

I have no idea how correct or false this explanation is.
You can submit a ticket to bing via their webmaster tools website. I've done it before in the past and a real human did respond at the time.

1. it is systemd-resolved, not "SystemD"

2. it is not a nasty habit, but a configuration. If you do not want it, you can configure systemd-resolved not to do this.

3. it is for a very good reasons, and there were written pages and pages about the issues, what those are; so when you understand why, you won't reconfigure (2) anyway.

In Polish this word took two different forms:

- "horda", meaning horde, and

- "orda" used almost exclusively for the Golden Horde. _IIRC_ that's where the form with "h" appeared first and propagated to other western languages. (I'm not saying that you're incorrect, I just haven't heard about a direct route from Mongolian to English.)

The word "Urdu" (as in the "Urdu language") has the same, Turkic origin (meaning "military camp"). It also exists in Persian, which influenced the development of the Urdu language.
This article reminds me very strongly of Lockhart’s Lament [0], which at this point I think should be required reading for every mathematician and teacher. The essential message is the same: maths is itself intrinsically fascinating as the exploration of foundational logical reasoning, so teach that instead of the boring stuff taught in maths classes now! (Lockhart writes in a specifically American context, but the general philosophy seems much more widely applicable to me.)

Not GP but IMO it's a lazy and boring way of disagreeing. Declaring something 'a strawman' on HN is so common and not entirely done I think (not that I'm particularly familiar) with technical accuracy, it's like screaming 'fake news' with a veneer of intelligence.

GGP comment here was maybe better than most for actually relating the alleged fallacies to what the parent had said directly, but I think it'd be better/politer/more honest good discussion to phrase it like 'this is not the same because blah blah. This kind of argument is known as a blah fallacy.' or not even mention the fallacy, because does it really matter? Unless that's what you want to talk about instead of the actual topic.

It's a bit like saying 'I went through your comment looking for grammatical errors: 1) split infinitive, e.g. blah; 2) missing possessive apostrophe, e.g. blah's blah not blahs blah, ...' versus talking about the content instead and perhaps politely mentioning it. Just a bit 'ha, got you'.
>why would you want tearing?!

Avoiding tearing inevitably involves adding latency (the data is ready, render half a frame now or wait for vsync?) Some might consider it worthwhile to give up frame-perfection in exchange for getting as much data to the user as fast as possible; that's valid. Latency isn't just important for games, it colors every interaction we have with the computer.

> The only energy source that can provide green energy reliably going forward is nuclear

This simply isn't backed by real life experience. A not too small factor about Germany producing more power is that France for years now always has problems producing enough energy, because they have to put down their nuclear plants for various reasons. In these situations nuclear power plants typically still require energy.

France put all its eggs into nuclear, like pretty much no other country, and doesn't produce enough energy to even cover its own energy demands. And not just now, but the topic goes through the media at least once a year. Nobody denies that, it's just a fact.

Reality just isn't that simple.
