I think that's the sloshing part. Excess liquidity moves from entities that buy real estate, into the hands of those that were selling that real estate. Then the excess liquidity of the entities that sold real estate goes into whatever they're interested in, like maybe the stock markets. This is not one big movement but lots of mostly chaotic reactive systems hench the sloshing.

The latter sounds something inspired by Keynes except he predicted a 15 hour work week but the books scenario insists on a 40 hour work week. If engineers work too much they can work less hours and give the remaining hours to another person so that there are more jobs.
If the engineers insist on working full time, then what happens is that one engineer does the work of three people which means two people either end up unemployed or they must do pointless busy work so that the engineer's ego isn't broken because he thinks he is some kind of hero overworking himself for the sake of lazy people living on government benefits.

Keynes would say something like, "if there are private interests standing in the way of building housing and the like, then burying bank notes in the ground and making people dig them up would be better than... nothing."
A company is a success only if its market is the whole world, or at the very least covers the USA where most of HN's users live? That's an interesting take.

"I don't understand why food would be more expensive in countries with lower wages."

The multinationals do what they can get away with. A fine from a Bulgarian authority is likely to be trivial to them, and if it actually bites, they can always withdraw from the market as a retaliation.

No one wants to lose market access to Germany, but the smaller countries don't have as much leverage.
You’re on the right track. Many people including economists don’t get this. It’s a very useful way of thinking economically.

(See also my other comment here).
I am not sure how fair that comparison is. E.g., in my country most people can get 1GiB downstream/50 MiB upstream through cable internet (even in small villages), more than 50% of the households can get fiber with 1GiB downstream/1GiB upstream.

Yet the average fixed download/upload speed is 123/40 MiB. Why? Most people just want enough bandwidth for Netflix (TV is reserved separately), Youtube, and basic surfing. So, they'll go with the cheapest subscription, which is usually 100MiB downstream (except on budget providers), pulling down the averages. Starlink-like bandwidth is really cheap on cable/fiber. Heck, I have unlimited 5G and I think it's only 25 Euro per month, less than a third of a Starlink subscription and the bandwidth is usually much better. Even in the small village my parents live I get 100-200MiB downstream.

At any rate, it is no problem at all to get 1GiB downstream in most of the country and much cheaper than Starlink (we currently pay 35 Euro p/m for 1GBit up/down). For European countries that can't offer this yet, it makes more sense to invest in 5G and wired broadband.

That said, I think the EU should also do this. Satellite internet is good for remote areas and in the case of calamities (war, disaster, etc.) and crucial infrastructure should be in European hands.

The "early access to the next versions of the OpenAI models" is the only important detail in this arrangement.

The most obvious signal so far is Bing/Sydney chat freaking out Google so much that they rushed a Bard demo that shit the bed.

$1M may be enough that a quality founding team can get a first iteration out the door without having to distract themselves with fundraising.

Essentially, this makes OpenAI a kingmaker. The $1M is just icing. The cake is being able to launch something that nobody else can.
Do you know where stable diffusion was developed?
And that's why SD-WAN (software defined wide area network) technology now exists. In a lot of ways it is even better than BGP in that you direct traffic based on performance measurements - either actively through SLA tests or passively watching traffic flows and measuring latency. Using BGP routing based on hop counts and AS paths is akin to following road signs rather than getting live routing that knows traffic for instance from Google Maps

> Germany's problem is the EU's problem.

Let me try again: Germany has bad internet because Germany is German, not because the EU forces Germany to be German.

I agree with the other sentiment you express: that Germany's bad German ideas cause problems for the entire EU due to Germany's size and influence. France's bad French ideas are of the same dumb variety and they also cause problems for the entire EU due to France's size and influence.

All member states have their favourite dumb ideas. That's not much of a problem if they balance out with each other. It's a big problem when they don't.

And of course the EU would be better with less German and French influence. The EU would also be better if the UK could Brenter to counter the Big State and Big Planning ideas of not just Germany and France but also Italy, Spain, Greece, Portugal, etc. The "Frugal Four" certainly can't do it alone.
The Mittelstand is pretty much the only reason why Germany's prosperity is still a thing. Countries like Italy and Spain, which lack this backbone of mid-sized companies, are in deep trouble and unlikely to get out of it.

But there were times when German companies actually were world leaders in the big things as well, not just reliable suppliers to foreign big players. Don't you count this as a regression?
That's a fair evaluation. I mostly do RF stuff these days (SA + VNA) so the scope use cases are fairly basic. Mine's a 54642D so 500MHz + LA. I don't want to put down at least 50x what I paid for it ($100 broken - $10 fix) for a new scope. The Siglent fills the feature gap and but I don't like it.

The sensible way is to have the normal publication of X and /maybe/ some modified versions, for "special uses", with clear warnings that it is not the original.

And to educate people to be smart. (Which by the way does not fit with an idea that confuses "formation" with "molding".)
Even more surprising for me, as Havant was my home town until university — that station was my main way of travelling to and from family right up until my mother's Alzheimer's (a few years after my father's death) meant she had to move out.

> Why does European airbus thrive, while us aircraft industry declined?

The documentary "Downfall: The Case Against Boeing"[1] goes into this topic, and I believe the wiki page[2] summary captures it nicely:

> "There were many decades when Boeing did extraordinary things by focusing on excellence and safety and ingenuity. Those three virtues were seen as the key to profit. It could work, and beautifully. And then they were taken over by a group that decided Wall Street was the end-all, be-all. [...]"

Of course, I have no idea if this is just cherry-picking information, but it does seem plausible why things "suddenly" changed.

And even there, if you look at the sheer amount of R&D projects funded by the EU... Anyone serious can't say the EU doesn't invest massively in R&D. Interestingly enough, most of what I see funded and successfully becoming products are incremental development (increasing wireless bandwidth for specific apps or constraints, improving industrial productivity or getting to next gen for any tech) and few moonshots. I work with a lot of tech SMEs and most consider these projects key to their survival, as they get put in touch with (international) customers to work on hard but specific use cases and they get funded for R&D, improve their portfolio...

But as you said, it's not very sexy, there's a little bit (not that much really) of management/bureaucracy (and most actually understand that state of things as the european equilibrium between corruption and too-much-red-tape) and it's not that hard to get funded on small to medium projects.
I just set mine up two days ago, VPS for NextCloud and storage is a RPi with a SATA SSD in my closet at home with Wireguard connecting the two. The NextCloud data folder pointed to NFS on storage. Its not the fastest solution, but it does work and gives my RPi a purpose.

That isn’t quite fair. Tulip mania was a bubble because it was a greater fool scheme. The only purpose of the commodity was to sell it to a “greater fool” at some time in the future. This is analogous to the crypto bubbles that happen every few years.

OpenAI has created actual products which have some value. Dall-E is useful to people for what it is. Codex has limitations but some people find it useful. GPT3 and ChatGPT are definitely not general purpose problem solvers but for the people who use them they have value.

Commenting to correct just this:

> that I should be ashamed for wanting to hang out with trans people

I do not think that. Rather, I used it to point out how you placed all cis in one category, and refer to them as all the same.

> All you’ve done is concisely demonstrate why someone like me would want to hang out with people that get me

"people that get me" does not necessarily mean "non-cis". But you happily used it like that. Using "being trans" as proxy for being safe will get to talking with trans people who believe in gender roles, and will enforce a gender-roles status quo. That you likely do not like.

> And to be honest I suspect the reason is that I’ve said I’m trans. Otherwise I can’t imagine why you decided I should be immediately dismissed.

Had I dismissed you, I would not have engaged. It's not because you said you are trans. It's because you seem to act as if identity drives knowledge (positioning), and as if whites and cis were to be seen as purely elements of the oppressor class that when coming together are only doing so to exclude the oppressed and perpetuate the status quo.

I said nothing re: you. Rather, your worldview. You feel attacked. I understand.
it really is for both, and it's not two independent crises; they're two mutually interdependent crises that reinforce each other
Seems like there's some implicit assumption in this comment that everything is rented by the minute and latency never matters. Renting things by the minute isn't really the cheapest way to buy lots of things though. Also, its sometimes nice to respond to the content of the article instead of its title.
And a pretty mainstream one. One of the niceties of software is that it scales quite easily and that if it really solves an important problem, it can grow explosively all over the world, where people do have the same problem that needs solving.

Specializing in a niche corner of the market can be called a success, but a cunning dwarf is still a dwarf. For one, it lacks the necessary capital to invest into something more risky but potentially more rewarding.
The readme states that currently it transfers around 2 gigabytes per second which is 16 gigabits per second.

> Europe is also so densely populated that full 4g coverage is totally doable.

The main goal here as I can see is to learn from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, when the main infrastructure (including electric grid) was targeted.

The issue is much broader than you may consider. Besides the obvious benefits for military communication, consider the following points (all from my experience living in Kyiv):

1. Modern society depends on the internet heavily - banks, shops, eCommerce. Your ATMs need internet to allow you to withdraw cash. Your enemy will target your power infrastructure to stop economic activity very early.

2. In case of long-term power outages, you can expect most of the land lines will stop working after 12 hours when batteries on the ISP sides start to be depleted.

3. Your 4G network will become less and less useful very quickly, the more people will start losing wired internet and switching over to 4G. The cellular will not be able to fulfil demand and eventually will halt under the load.

4. It is very difficult to power wired internet with mobile generation, as the infrastructure is huge and requires power generation in multiple places at once.

Satellite internet solve this miraculously:

1. you can get internet where you need it without reliance on any other infrastructure - i.e. bank, office, ATM, etc... Just plug the dish to the nearby router.

2. Mobile power generation becomes much more useful, as you can have it only where it needed (i.e. to power satcom).

3. It is VERY cheap considering the alternative.

How Io language is Homoiconic?
It's being mentioned that Io language is homoiconic.

To me homoiconic means "Expressing the language in the data-structure of the same langage" . For exp, LISP, is all LISP list.

I'm trying to understand Io is homoiconic?

Though I can see that the Io programs are objects and message, a given statement is not a data-structure of the language per se.

For example, can someone explain how this statement is homoiconic,

```
Number / := method (i,
if (i != 0, self origDiv(i), 0)
)

Have a look on lowendtalk.com there are regular offers for cheap storage servers (I'm currently running a 2 Tb 6G 2CPU VPS that I got for $80 a year). Also if you just want to attach storage to an existing VPS you could get a storage box from hetzner. Other alternatives exist, e.g. Ionos.de had (has?) a nextcloud offer with 2TB for 10 euros a month.
You could use STUN, or if you can make arbitrary connections talk to the user's router over UPNP.

Cross-border shopping used to be a big thing for Danes as well but mostly for soft drinks, alcohol, candy, and petrol. They all used to be a lot cheaper in Germany but that was because of our taxes in Denmark. It was our own bloody fault.

There are Danish supermarkets right across the border in Germany for the locals because things are still a bit cheaper there but most of us no longer bother driving all the way to Germany with a trailer on the car just to buy stuff. It used to be common to do that a couple of times a year.

So the thing is: the original "websocket" was prevented from being a full arbitrary connect() implementation out of security concerns. That is, the web page is running inside the user's network security boundary, and might be able to make connections which appear trusted.

If there's an API for "desktop application" web pages which can make arbitrary connections, what does the security model look like?
