Ultrasound money cannot be money with a monetary policy on moving sands that can change because Vitalik and his buddies decided it was a fun experiment.

Ethereum has demonstrated that its monetary policy wasn't "sound" and that it could be changed way too easily with EIP-1559, and will change again.

In our bubble yes, in the real world...not so much.
Can't speak for all of tech, but the amount of design, skills, and technology that goes into a consumer electronics device like a smart phone is truly astonishing. Now release several of these every year. And a laptop or two. And some accessories. And innovate to keep ahead of your competitors, or just to stay relevant. That takes a lot of people with a huge variety of disciplines ranging from analog design, to operating systems, to machine learning.
The system understands how to produce Thai text, but it doesn't understand the references of various Thai words to the world, emotional and mental states, social interactions, etc.

Every single thing in your comment rings false to me, as someone who has been both an IC and manager at startups and large corporations.

Most importantly, there are very few managers and business leaders who think "You know what would make my life easier? Having a lot more people to manage!" The usual reason people are hired is because the needs (or anticipated needs, which can often be wildly off as we've seen recently) of the business require it, and without more people there will either be lost business opportunity or risk that existing employees are working at an unsustainable rate.

I'm definitely not saying that businesses can't be inefficient, but when I read your sentence "Everyone’s number one objective in any company is to make their individual life easier" (with a "full stop" no less as if that somehow guarantees its unassailability), I honestly didn't know what you were talking about.

Every company I've worked for has had some core group of people who cared about doing good work and doing the right thing.

No company can maintain that dynamic at scale, though. As you grow, you accumulate people who are good at presenting an image of doing the good work, but they're actually operating adversarially in a way that collects the most rewards with the least effort.

It's not just managers. A lot of ICs treat the workplace like a min-max game, where they are trying to maximize their compensation and minimize the work they do. Every time I mention this, there are comments about how that's actually a good thing because companies have the same strategy, but the people who do this usually screw their teammates more than the company. Big companies don't suffer if random people are slacking off and refusing to do their work, but their teammates who want to get a promotion or build their skillsets are going to suffer the consequences of deadbeat coworkers.

Small companies aren't immune from these problems, but it's so much easier to identify and remove the dead weight in a small company. When you have 20 people in a company, it's clearly obvious when someone isn't pulling their weight. But when you have 100,000 people in a company, a large number of people are going to find ways to settle into obscure roles where their output is hard to measure and they'll coast as much as they can.
Considering how much revenue gas taxes currently generate, I am not sure why you would expect the government to mandate price controls or competition for charging.

Nimby’s are statistically wealthier than average for the area. Renters simply have less money on average and don’t care as much about such issues because they are more mobile.

Fingers crossed the iPhone 15 will ship with usb-c, at least in Europe. I’m hoping everywhere but maybe I can grab a euro model if not.

CS, in Finland, 10-15 years ago. I think the initial salary was something like €30k and it increased to €40k, which would be roughly $40k to $50k using the exchange rates at that time. Typical industry salaries for people who started their undergrads at the same time as me were ~50% higher.

The reason why PhD stipends are so low in the US is probably the same as the reason why industry salaries are so high: a culture that favors the top 20% at the expense of the bottom 50%.
Honestly the latter seems better. Unless it’s my own company I want to turn up do work go home. No more.

Tip for getting good quality website screenshots for presentations from Chrome:

- Open developer tools.

- Activate the device toolbar.

- Set the DPR to 3 and make sure the screen is the width you want to capture.

- Press cmd/ctrl-shift-P to bring up the command popup

- Type 'screeenshot' and select one of the screenshot options - area, fullsize, node, or just plain screenshot to capture the viewport.

Result: high res capture of your webpage.

To get the 'dramatic' look from this tool, load it into powerpoint, apply a 3D transformation, overlay a radial gradient to get a vignette kind of look, then just do another screencapture.

Open source? Just go buy something online for $15 and be done with it.

I mean sure, I get open source - but when there are super cheap commercial alternatives commonly available? It doesn't bring much value to the ecosystem.

I agree, but the thing about having to honor the warranty even in the case of consumer misuse would inflate prices. (I don't know if EU warranty law actually works like that, I'm just going off the previous comment.)
> Most importantly, there are very few managers and business leaders who think "You know what would make my life easier? Having a lot more people to manage!"

If you're talking about good managers, then yes, having more people creates more work.

The lazy middle managers aren't interested in hands-on middle management, though. They cultivate teams of people who can self-manage or be managed through fear. They take the people who need a lot of attention and they transfer them to other roles. They penalize anyone who asks too many questions or requires too much management input.

These aren't good, hands-on managers. They may be great at talking big in meetings and schmoozing around the office, but they're not putting in the work to be hands-on with their employees.

It seems pretty reasonable to call a punitive action that is intended to cause bodily harm violence.
The double whammy is you also get taxed on that yield so for chains that are paying yield with inflation you're actually losing money by staking.

They really do need to be transparent about what the actual yields are (return - inflation). AFAIK Ethereum is the only chain that gives a positive return after taxes because it's deflationary.
Having a two-year liability on the books makes it much harder to get a loan.
If we can make machines conscious, it's quite possible some will have completely alien experiences to our own, particularly as they're designed for different purposes than how our bodies function. Reminds me of the Battlestar Galactica model complaining that he was made too human and wanted to taste stars and what not.
I was referring to something like ATOM. BTC has a limited supply so it won't inflate past a certain period, but ATOMs inflate each year and if you're not staking them, you are effectively becoming poorer year to year.
The easiest solution is to simply not buy Apple equipment since they're user-hostile.

Apple is a premium luxury brand, like Bentley or Coach or Rolex. If you buy Apple stuff, you should be happy to buy different chargers and cables for the different Apple devices.

Now it's made to inconvenience the previous iphone users so they are given one more reason not to buy an android phone.
> Although this is also available to masses .

Not in any meaningful sense. Only the ultra-wealthy can wipe out the lion's share of their tax bill through this loophole. From the article:

> Someone like Ballmer can easily deploy $100 million in losses to cancel out a $100 million gain from selling some of his vast Microsoft holdings. It’s a very different story when it comes to wages and other forms of income, of which only $3,000 can be offset. On average, only the top 0.001% of taxpayers made a majority of their income through investment gains in 2018, according to public IRS data.

The problem doesn’t stop at the university either. US federal student loans have higher interest rates and fewer forgiveness options than for undergraduates.
All those changes took years to make happen and hundreds of people debated them.

All of them have made Ethereum more secure, easier to use, and deflationary.

High quality products can also go in shipping containers
I don't really understand how this works. So you buy stocks A and B in identical amounts, and A increases by the same amount that B drops. You need cash, so you sell A, but you don't want to pay taxes on the gains on A, so you trade B to offset the losses. But that lowers B's cost basis, so the next time it rises, you'll have more of a tax liability than you did earlier, right? Whereas if you didn't trade B, you'd have avoided that difference. I feel like I'm not thinking it through sufficiently - how does repeating this process end up being a net benefit for you?

Update/summary for those reading: The answer seems to be (if I understand the comments below correctly) that inherited assets' cost bases magically get stepped up to their fair market value without tax consequences, which would explain why kicking the can down the road is beneficial, as well as one reason why generational wealth is such an incredibly impactful loophole.
Looks very cool! Besides the search, which works great and feels like a powerful tool, I like how snappy the word highlighting is in the transcripts. Can you elaborate a bit on how that's done? Thank you, this is really great work!
Commercial leases are usually multi year affairs, so difficult to titrate this ratio.
But then, you have to distill it and strip out the sulfur and other elemental contaminants and fractionate it and crack it... one benefit of starting off with pure CO2 and water is the ability to selectively make pure hydrocarbon fractions (or at least fairly restricted spreads of chain lengths) without having any waste.

Also, there's the distribution issue - this could all be done regionally, so transport costs will go way down. The only thing needed is excess energy to dump into the process (equatorial zones would be good for solar PV inputs, etc.)

My ubiquiti UAP-Lite was great, until it became flakey. I swapped it for an ancient router that supported an old build of ddwrt, and everything wireless started working again.

Retrospectively I think the ubiquiti AP’s flakiness was caused by a firmware update. This Reddit post is ~2 years old:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubiquiti/comments/n46siv/whats_the_...

I’ve been meaning to do a hard reset and/or change the firmware, and put the ubiquiti AP back into service, but the old & slow ddwrt router works fine for everything not an Ethernet cable.

it works because high compensation and strength of job market, not "results in". these (high paid) workers have a lot of power individually which balances against the scale power of the organization. Not so for low skill workers. At will employment will not lead to higher wages for low skill workers. It will lead to fuller employment, more overall wages.

When people pay fees for transactions most of that fee is burnt.

Blocks have a fixed amount of rewards given to the validator that created them and the validators that attest it is valid.

When more fees are being burnt than Ethereum issued in blocks it is deflationary. It is deflationary at ~16 Gwei and fees have been higher than this for a while now.

Validators cost very little to run, they're usually NUCs that use 20w, the main cost is the Ethereum you have to stake.

A Passkey is a WebAuthn-compliant[0] form of authentication which relies on biometric authentication combined with a key pair.[1] iCloud supports the ability to create passkeys, and allows users of Apple devices to use them to sign in by TouchID/FaceID. Another means to get a passkey is to purchase a physical WebAuthn-compliant hardware device, such as a Yubikey or a Google Titan Security Key.

I wonder how long until it'll appear on AliExpress, which already has those "real" AirPods with USB-C ports.

It reminds me of a memorable quote from a long-defunct PMP forum over a decade ago: "How can you tell a fake iPod from a real one? It doesn't need iTunes and works like a mass storage device, has an FM radio, voice recorder, and can play videos."
Many developers work two jobs. Many jobs prevent employees from doing this. Many employees work on free open source. Many companies try to prevent or control this. Some do it for rent, child payments, mortgage or car payments.

I made minimum wage at my first job. Didn't cross the poverty line until my 3rd or 4th job years later. Things might be different now, I started after the .com crash.
Is he even saving in gas vs simply paying the $360 for the autogas STC? And privately operated aircraft don't require engine TBOs to be respected.

Doing the right things tends to also not align with promotions either. The thing that helps your team mates us ignoring the business needs and min/maxing the promotion game.

I miss the old UI (from like 20 years ago).

I switched off of it because the new index builder was slow on whatever spinning disk single machine I had back then. Also, the UI was trying too hard to look new, and it made it difficult to use.

Oh well. I haven’t looked back. Plenty of functional old school mail UIs exist (Fastmail and Apple Mail for macOS come to mind.). I’d prefer an open source one though.
It's more like this: stock A offers exposure to X (say resource extraction, pharma, tech, small cap growth.. whatever). Stock A also went down in value this tax year but you're still confident in your investment thesis, so you find stock B, which also has similar exposure, this could be a different ETF, a different company or even a different class of shares in the same company (sell GOOG buy GOOGL). You sell A to create a loss on paper and purchase B with your proceeds. This allows you to create paper losses to offset your tax liability from any sales that produced capital gains while keeping, roughly, the same allocation without violating the wash sale rule.
I had a long response typed out to an up thread comment, then remembered the rule "don't feed the trolls". I did get a chuckle afterwards when I read their username, it certainly is apt.

It’s hilarious how people are still arguing this when the actions of the tech companies have shown the exact opposite.

Zuck, Pichai, Nadella, etc. all see what the problem is.

Middle managers at FAANG companies see their path to career growth is by increasing the headcount under them.

People hired in roles saw the only way to grow their careers was to become managers.

This led to a completely absurd amount of middle managers, who weren’t really contributing much of anything. Just managing other middle managers.

Zuck made this pretty clear in a previous brief and talked about getting rid of the number of middle managers. Become an IC or leave.
Good for them. The only thing that upsets me is that this technique is not available for everyone.

Watching the us government fire a $150k missile from a $170m fighter that costs $25k/hour to fly at a $250 balloon ticks me off. That’s my money. It was taken from me unwillingly and transferred to to some elite 1% senator’s golf Buddy.

Both are equally true: big tech companies have big tech problems and big company problems, both of which tend to require big expenditures to deal with. And let’s not forget all the folks you need for sales, marketing, finance/accounting/treasury, legal and audit, logistics, manufacturing, trust and safety, customer service, civic affairs, shareholder relations … the list goes on and on. Companies are vast empires, and even from 10,000 feet up it’s hard to track everything being done.

This is the world of Unix, there's very little obligation to do anything other than convention. That's technically true, just like you can write your software to ignore all signals, or write your software such that it assumes it's always run as root for your convenience. That may be more convenient for you the developer, it's true.

But those are all generally poor ways to write software, and a great way to get your users to complain. So it is with ignoring XDG.
It's also been a game of chicken to see who can hire the best talent the fastest and keep them off competitor's patrol. Anything to support growth. But that wasn't sustainable.

What you’re saying is that some people have realized that hiring more people doesn’t in fact make their life easier. It often makes their lives harder.

I agree, which is why people who do know that tend to be extremely hesitant to hire (they’re trying to preserve their own local quality of life). But as the sibling comment says, this realization only occurs to good managers and even then it takes some time.
