What an incredibly bizarre comment - What's sort of harm comes from someone knowing your ebay account name? Come on, now.
Merkel did not have supreme power over Germany and was also supported by officials that do have term limits. The bundestag is re-elected every 4 years and could end Merkel’s chancellorship if she went nuts, and even if she went nuts she couldn’t do much damage since her powers were limited.

Any democracy that gives great power to its leader has term limits (or they are not a democracy for very long). Most democracies have both divided executive powers and also term limits.
Similarly lowering interest rates into the ground when consumers still had plenty of money but supply was constrained probably wasn't a wise move either.

More targeted assistance of just affected industries during the pandemic could have prevented almost all of this.
I do bike regularly in winter in a fairly cold city (it was -8 C today) and would disagree with this.

The only gear I’ve bought specifically for winter cycling as opposed to the rest of the year are glasses and a headband. I’d probably recommend a balaclava for someone without a beard. I bought fancy biking glasses, but $5 safety glasses would be passable.

Other than that I just wear the clothes fit for wherever I’m going. (Ie jeans, maybe long underwear, a couple layers, and a puffy coat).

The comfort part is subjective and I can’t invalidate your experience of course, but I personally find it at worst comparable to the first five to ten minutes of being in a car on a cold day before the car warms up. And on anything but the coldest days I often find I’m a quite comfortable temperature. Though it’s possible to over/under dress and then be hot or cold during the commute.

Not that people can’t drive in the winter if they want, but it often feels where I am that people just can’t conceive of the idea that biking in winter is a thing anyone would do. But there’s plenty of evidence that some percentage of people will choose to bike in winter if it’s viable (ie there’s good bike infrastructure).

> Or, be honest about the whole deal and make it an overt loan to the pilot. That's how it works with my employer -- if I want to get trained in a specialty that benefits my employer, they will partially cover the cost and extend me a loan for the rest.

Sure-- these terms have to be disclosed to be binding. So you can say-- we'll pay for your type rating but if you voluntarily leave within 3 years you must pay back the pro-rata portion of the training.

(This is better for the employee than a straight loan because if they are e.g. laid off they can just walk away).

We buy the Starbucks Espresso roast for home use because of the price (through Costco's Kirkland brand), it is quite dark but can be pretty solid if you prep it right.

Conversely, I cannot stand the drip coffee made at the actual Starbucks locations. Bitter horseshit. I tested the "blonde" roast last time just to have something more drinkable, and that was terrible as well.

> non-competes should be banned, yes.

I like my non-compete. I'm a highly paid professional with rare skills/experience, I negotiated hard on my employment contract with multiple rounds of edits in consultation with my employment attorney, I will generate and be exposed to valuable trade secrets during my employment, and I look forward to being paid millions of dollars to sit on my ass for a couple of years if/when I eventually leave.

Should it be banned? Seems fair to me. Or you just mean noncompetes that don't include monetary consideration, or which don't establish protectable interests? In many jurisdictions those are already unenforceable.
It's possible for a PaaS to improve your security posture by implementing many of the security controls you'd otherwise be responsible for yourself. Every PaaS provider has a Shared Responsibility Model, like this one from AWS [0], and a good PaaS can eat up much of what would otherwise be your responsibility as an AWS customer: network architecture, secure configuration, IAM, system access (and auditing), intrusion detection, etc.

On the other hand, many PaaS providers obfuscate their security implementation, and ultimately your data could be compromised by their mistakes. Things you should look for when evaluating PaaS providers:

- How are resources, networks, etc. separated/isolated per customer?

- What are YOUR security responsibilities on the platform?

- How transparent is the provider about their security controls? Do they have security whitepapers, SOC 2 reports, etc. that are transparent and legit? Better yet, can they prove to you in the product how security controls are being implemented?

Disclaimer: I'm the CEO and founder of Aptible [1], a PaaS specifically built to meet and prove security requirements for companies in regulated/high-compliance environments.

The other factor is that unchecked consolidation of almost all industries eliminated the “animal spirits” of competition to lower prices.

Yes. It's odd how in the finance world, there are often non-competes, but they call this "gardening leave." The employer has to pay the employee that's leaving their regular salary for the time that they're encumbered. For some reason in the software world, it's fairly customary for these to be signed with essentially no compensation.

I agree that the government deciding to recklessly print money and not raising interest rates when they should have is the primary cause of the inflation. But are the two reasons mutually exclusive? Bad policies and corporate greed?

Even if it can attributed to a "civilian" company, China is not a free country under Xi Jin Ping's rule. The CCP has many mechanisms to control the Chinese private sector as an arm of the state.

Xi Jin Ping exercises more control over Chinese society than Stalin could have dreamed of in the Soviet Union, with the various coercive systems put into place in the last few decades.

I'm not familiar with the person behind the tweet, so I don't know any more than what the quote says. But I'm saying that if an individual paper says a thing, and that thing ends up being useful, then how is that not valuable? It could end up being wrong, but so could anything else you pick up from anywhere.

In some instances, it won't end up being useful because it's only relevant to someone in a lab full of million dollar equipment. But that'll only be the case sometimes.

That's a very convenient way to make entirely unfalsifiable claims. Any contradictory evidence? Just more entirely unimportant exceptions.

> long distance rates are not a power structure

Ah, right, except for the fact that they were maintained by a monopoly. And that was broken up mainly due to advances in technology demonstrating that society would function just fine when it wasn't a monopoly, plus a moment history where people believed in regulation as useful.

> If you're interested in proving me wrong

Not particularly. I'm just interested in you not immediately shitting on the exploration of possibilities by making overblown, unevidenced claims and then voluminously handwaving away evidence to the contrary. Maybe let it breathe a bit.

Only because money velocity fell off a cliff, money velocity is one of the multipliers that goes into the apparent quantity of money as the same dollar is used more often. Given the asset bubbles due the printing people are incentivized to invest into it so long as the bubble continues to grow (or at least not shrink) people are incentivized to keep holding. So you can keep printing money without seeing inflation so long as asset bubbles can soak it up and money velocity drops. Now when the reverse happens, which will happen eventually even if it takes a very long time, that is when you get inflation.

So paradoxically increasing the base money supply enough to generate asset bubbles has a deflationary effect.
Our ancestors did not often have an abundance of food or eat a lot every day. Most Romans only ate 1 meal a day, and our evolutionary ancestors regularly faced days without food. Fatness was historically a signal of wealth. It was even rare to find someone fat as recent as the 1800s as you noted (and the reason had less to do with exercise than caloric intake).
Really, the abundance of food didn't start happening until recent times with modern preservation techniques, industrial farming, and food processing (which also allowed for more calorie packed foods). The tractor wasn't even widespread until the 1910s, when it took 1.5 hours for horses to plow an acre of farmland. Nowadays it takes 5 minutes.

Russia's generals are the people who are repeatedly ordering tanks to attack without infantry support with predictable results, the most recent of which we've seen under Vuhledar recently. Their incompetence is not a theory at this point, it's an empirically tested fact.

And it's not just the West saying that - I'm following many of the separatist outlets on Telegram and such, and while they broadly support the war, they're dismayed at how it is being waged. Strelkov is perhaps most notable of the critics, which is rather telling giving his role in 2014, but there are many others.

In any case, do you have other theories as to why Russia would send their National Guard with riot gear towards Kyiv during the first day of the war, if they didn't expect massive civilian resistance after toppling the government?

Show HN: Ingenuity-DL, CLI app to make GIFs from Ingenuity helicopter images
Back in 2020, NASA launched the Perseverance rover with an attached helicopter, Ingenuity - the first man-made object to use another planet's atmosphere for powered flight.

On days Ingenuity flies, it tends to take a lot of pictures and sends them back to Earth. Ingenuity-DL is a small CLI app designed to convert those images into a GIF to watch each flight.

This was my first real project with Rust. I'm interested in diving more into programming with it, so any advice would be welcomed :)

Similarly I have dreams of a very distinctive tasting coffee I had out west that was roasted on site. I have never been able to replicate that glorious sludge. I had beans from the roasterie shipped to me as a gift, and I could not succeed. Yet, from photos and memory, it appears as though they brew with average coffee machines. I can only imagine that the sheer freshness of a dark roast makes a difference.
Geez. I thought it was borderline when I thought they were just providing pricing stats but to put even the smallest of barriers that prevents the user from setting a price outside of their recommendation is ludicrous.

This is why I really want to see carrying costs for all types of vacant real estate vastly increased via punitive property taxes triggered by vacancy. Phase it in over a few years to allow large property owners to adjust slowly without crashing markets, but it just doesn't feel right that there are so many vacant units being essentially held off the market to keep pricing far above equilibrium. This applies to homes and commercial properties such as retail and office too. If prices were at equilibrium, vacancy rates would be near-zero, just units which were between tenants.

> Calling out one obvious lie: “It is not our plan to occupy the Ukrainian territory. We do not intend to impose anything on anyone by force.”

I mean, it is not a “lie” once you accept Putin’s…rather, shall we say, slippery…concept of “Ukrainian territory”.

IF it was part of the DPR/LPR (like Crimea, earlier) Russia didn’t consider it “Ukrainian territory”…or vaguely claimed by them despite never having been controlled by them, or just somewhere Russia felt like occupying, for that matter.

The most obvious way I can see a disconnect is that I view financial services as a legitimate use case, because outside of crypto it is a large industry already that exists solely because there are finances to service. Speculation to be made easier. Its the underpinning of the global economy as the largest industry and every service provider involved takes a tiny cut and is largely invisible. Every other industry and non-financial innovation is smaller and operating within this reality.

The same occurs in the crypto space.

What I mostly see are people that were fundamentally uncomfortable with speculation and serving speculation, and were either redirecting that energy towards the crypto space, or completely segregated from the financial services reality they live within. Unaware that their chosen criticisms applied equally to things they respected.

Okay, so one use case: the Uniswap application and its code base has over million users. You can look at this dashboard to see just Uniswap’s monthly users which seems to peak at 800,000

you can further extrapolate that to all the clones on Ethereum and other blockchains that have higher throughput

Uniswap’s “liquidity pool” concept solved a big need, while also introducing new problems that people rapidly try to improve upon.

Otherwise, crypto exchanges have been a large extortionate gatekeeper in commerce, and attracting liquidity even after being listed was a major challenge. The liquidity pool concept solved that.
Sorry, I think having to watch my family get killed by someone because I am unable to defend them would be pretty emotional.

I think that's the definition of effective. Someone breaks into my home high on pcp, the most effective way to stop them hurting my family is killing them. Is that not a true statement? What is a more effective way to do it, knowing that failure potentially means the death of your kids? I'm not going to engage them with a tazer, there's the chance they will walk right through it, then what?

Anthony Smith, the current #5 ranked light heavyweight in the UFC is 6'4 and probably walks around at 230lbs. A guy on drugs broke into his house and Smith fought him and could not put him down. This is a guy that could defeat 99% of people on earth in a fight. I'm a big strong guy, Smith would absolutely murder me. Why would a normal civilian choose to fight a home invader with their fists when a more effective option is available? What if 2 people break in?

"Can I decide that only owning a gun is not enough against the other gun owners so I need something more effective?" I don't think firing a rocket launcher at someone in your house is going to be as effective as a firearm due to the potential for collateral damage. Also tanks play hell with my new wooden floors. Claymore mines are always a risk when stumbling around in the dark when the dog has to go outside. There is no other rational more effective choice than a firearm for someone defending their home provided they know how to use it.

If you're real argument is that no one should be able to kill someone else even if they are a home invader here to murder your family then Im not sure what to say. I guess I would like to know what you would do in that situation knowing what losing means.
> An alarming 87% of container images running in production have critical or high-severity vulnerabilities, [...] Yet only 15% of those unpatched critical and high-severity vulnerabilities are in packages in use at runtime when patches are available. [...] Further, only 2% of the vulnerabilities are exploitable.

And this is why the numbers are so high -- because all of those "vulnerability reports" are complete junk most of the time. SSHD warnings for systems which do not run sshd. ImageMagick vulnerabilities for internal code docs generator. A high severity sudo vulnerability which requires a specific very uncommon configuration.

A great idea on paper, but it is achieving an opposite effect, teaching people that most of automated vulnerability detections are junk.
