Assuming, for the moment, that smart phones and social media are bad for these kids, what do we do? We can't raise our kids without exposure to digital technology, but I'm not sure how to keep it at arms length.

I have an almost 5yo who obviously (I hope this is obvious and commonplace) doesn't have their own phone or tablet and has never used social media. But in a few years, they'll have peers that do use these things. Do I not buy them a phone? Do I just get them a cellular-connected watch so that they can call me if needed? Right now, my plan is to build them some kind of simple computer (e.g., Raspberry Pi 400) in a few years (i.e., once they can read and write) that probably doesn't have Internet access (at least at first), but allows use of Scratch Desktop and/or BASIC to learn programming, as well as "harmless" games (e.g., chess, etc.). I might also introduce off-line game systems like SNES and Genesis Classic.

What are people with literate young kids doing to introduce their kids to digital technology in a sane, non/less-addictive way?

I think that this should turn out OK for depositors, hopefully soon. It seems that while the bank essentially has no equity if you mark to market, assets and liabilities are about equal. That means that they have enough money to pay depositors, but no reserve.

Given this, it's pretty attractive for a buyer. The buyer just needs to provide some capital to bring the reserves back into compliance.
Unencumbered consuming is a big problem.

It’s not interesting because of its name, it’s the 18th largest bank in the US. A domino that big usually doesn’t fall alone. Also, FDIC hasn’t taken over a bank since 2020. This isn’t exactly a common occurrence.

There are so many technical details involved in specifying what a font might be that it's impossible. As an example: Western/Latin, or international? How many weights, sizes, styles, and variations? A western international font requires thousands of characters/ligatures/etc.

A WordPress site can be $500, $5K or $50K, depending on features, custom development, etc. Or more complicatedly, how much should a mobile app cost, and how much more should an iOS & Android mobile app cost, and how much more for a web version of some of the features..?

Here's one of the problems: in the days before webfonts, fonts were sold to designers who put those fonts in their toolbox. They stayed in that toolbox and the font files themselves weren't distributed around with every client or every delivery of collateral. Output was rendered, that render didn't include the font. The font face tag existed for years before font designers and font companies were willing to change their POV on delivering full webfont files to every browser and every browser cache that received the webfont. This was very different than before. A font sold to a designer was used by one person, a webfont installed on a website had a theoretically unlimited file distribution -- it's basically a default napster for fonts. (Or more controversially, commercial apps without an app store).

WOFF is just the exploitation of a bug to limit webfonts from desktop usage. It's a bit flip, and was easily altered. Iterations since have basically DRM firewalled desktop fonts from webfonts, but it's not very sophisticated.

I can tell you that Fortune 50 companies can pay low millions to license a commercial font for time, across all platforms.

It can take months to years to draw a font in all the characters/ligatures needed. Figure that's one designer (or an experienced designer, and a junior designer, working in tandem), working full-time, for 1-2 years, plus overhead, plus negotiations, plus specifications. How much do you think that's worth, or can be worth?
It's not really so much that Secretive doesn't support RSA keys, it's that the SE doesn't
think we see a lot of unbundling happening right now (I work on https://sst.dev/ so see a lot of different setups)

a lot of times these specialized services can really nail a more narrowly scoped feature set to the point where it's worth having stuff running outside of your primary cloud

it always depends, for me personally that bar is very high because like you said, now you have to copy paste secrets into yet another service among other things

some services are so good, like planetscale, especially compared to the cloud option that I'm willing to do that
| The last FDIC-insured institution to close was Almena State Bank, Almena, Kansas, on October 23, 2020.

From the release.
This is true. Banning does work though when coupled with extreme capital punishment. See Singapore.

There is also the argument of whether usage reduction is the objective goal though.
I wouldn't be too sure about that. 93% of SVB deposits are uninsured.
Thanks for pointing that out. The last paragraph offers some much needed context. This article is just anti right wing propaganda
Things like business books in particular may benefit from a somewhat longer-form article that fleshes out stories, case studies, and examples. But most of them don't need to be 250+ page books.
I mean, potentially.

The reality is they try to protect as much of the assets as they can and even those over 250k will probably not lose as much as they would have without the FDIC

There is a whole generation that isn't even familiar with this concept, so you could honestly re-introduce it.

I may be wrong, but I think the filters are not passive.

There is in fact a chemical reaction going on, and energy (stored in the chemistry of the filters) is being consumed to capture the CO2.

There are rocks - concrete does it too - which absorb CO2. This also is a chemical reaction, where the rocks and the concrete are giving up energy to capture the CO2.
It depends on what country you're talking about.

In Burundi you'll probably just be captured and murdered.

The USA has very high recitivism when we throw ex convicts out on the streets homeless and broke, which is not a punishment, it's just piss-poor social management.

Norway has one of the lowestest recitivism rates in the world. They combine just punishments with actual correctional assistance for reintegration into society.

Punishments with real correctional assistance and social resources is a proven successful combination.
It says 10+. I wonder what the average duration is.

This is an awesome value proposition. Congratulations on launching!

I have a project that I've been dreading on how I would tackle its background processing. It is a long-running process that should start and scale based on a user starting his work. I'm AWS certified and still wasn't thrilled about setting this up. Defer would solve this for me.

I can see myself suggesting this solution to clients who want to run complex jobs without the hassle from cloud infra.
I love legal pads instead of bound notebooks because you can tear off and rearrange pages so they can be with other relevant notes, also the top spiral makes it easy to put in my backpack.

Do yourself a favor though, and time stamp each page down to the minute when you start writing (eg: 20230310T1029).

You can:

- Link between notes. Also enables you to specify the previous or next page in your notes which is useful if they get shuffled.

- Save a stack of relevant notes by making a list of their links on a separate page before filing the notes away chronologically -- you can link to the list itself if you want to link to the group of notes.

- Have a TODO list for a certain date? Link to it from your calendar.

- You can save time by writing only the significant digits (eg: if the note page you're writing on and the page you're linking to share the same year and month, only write the day and time in the link).

- You can add line numbers or paragraph numbers if the situation demands it, and append, say, "LN23," or "¶5" to the timestamp to get specific.

It's a simple system but enables a lot of complex patterns in your note taking system.

This doesn't really work because it doesn't allow a moderator to set the tenor of a community. People can filter out individual messages, but a dedicated set of bad actors can turn a community into swiss cheese or undermine discussion just by spamming, baiting and trolling and taking advantage of the variance in the level of tolerance for the bad behavior.

Communities function when there is a standard to which the community members adhere and when bad behavior is uniformly moderated away. Making each individual have their own moderation bubble is a recipe for incoherence, even with the improvements you suggest. Its also a lot of work.
Now we just need an "incredible journey" blog post from SVB spinning this acquisition as a great win for both customers and investors.
I use the debugger occasionally, when the human factor creeps in and I inadvertently make a programming error.

The downside of debugging is obvious: it's not enabled in your production programs (although it could be).

Logging OTOH is always on, and it has to be good enough to let you figure out what happened on a remote machine, in a program whose state you can't recreate anymore.

This obviously makes it good enough for debugging programs running locally, and makes reaching for a debugger a rare occurrence. GUIs for debuggers of course lag behind, so you need to refresh your memory of the step, step over and breakpoint instructions, etc. on every one of these rare occasions.

And then they don't always work. Printing more complex data structures is often an unholy mess of pointers to strings and private class fields. Evaluating expressions will end up failing or crashing your program. The symbol you're trying to break on doesn't exist? But why? This makes debuggers unusable for a mediocre developer.
On Linux or BSD, the ptrace system call allows one process to take control of another process; it can then observe and control the other process. Breakpoints are inserted by replacing an instruction with a special instruction that traps; the debugger can then take control. Watchpoints (the article calls them data breakpoints) are often implemented by making the containing page read-only, so that a write access traps (this means that there's overhead from other writes to the same page, the debugger has to just resume execution silently for those). A checkpoint can be implemented by forking the process and freezing the fork, so execution can go back to that point.
I know at least for Bosch dishwashers, all tiers have the same pump and washing mechanics - you will get pretty similar cleaning performance from any of them. The more expensive models come with more gimmick cycle modes or fancier racks, but fundamentally the same guts that make it “tick”. I know Miele does similarly with their vacuums - they all have the same great suction motor, and come with different accessories and attachments.
The press release answers some of that. Insured money is there on Monday. Uninsured money will get their first payout no later than next week.

After that its a question but typically depositors will know the answer very quickly because their claims come first.
Only as long as enough others are in on the idea.

I.e MyAwesomeBlockchain can be totally awesome but since no one uses kt it is useless.

This will be the fate of well over 90% of the block chains that exist today I think. In fact I guess more than 90% of them.
Re Bear Sterns, there were lots of political reasons it was allowed to fail while others were protected. If I remember right something about them not helping with the Long Term Capital Management collapse for example. There will have been people who had the opportunity to help SVB and collectively decided it was better to let it fail. It will be interesting to understand the decisions that were made when the dust settles
I don't even think liberal Americans believe that. People who advocate for unrelenting immigration would probably be very upset if Russians were coming across the border (or some European, culturally conservative Christian-esque group) by the millions. I would argue those liberals are lying when they talk about what nationhood is. They believe in it, just not the one they live in.
Wait, but the IQ/intelligence link is reproducible.

Are you just saying that "most reproducible" is a low bar? (If so, that makes sense.)
ah, I totally forgot the gaming angle. FWIW I've broken switches too: I shipped my keyboard with not enough padding and my E switch broke, and the switches under my thumbs died because they had too much mechanical strain on the ALPS style leads with no place to mate the switch body with the PCB. In both cases I put in new switches and carried on since I built the darn thing to begin with.

Well for this keyboard since it's Hall effect sensors rather than switches I actually think it would hold up for you!
Some go into management for pay and promotions, not because they want to. Long term, IC is often a dead end. Especially at mismanaged companies, which are, (see this post) not exactly uncommon.
Only 2.7% of SVB's deposits will be covered by FDIC.
I wouldn't splurge on a luxury fridge either but I wish I understood why there aren't any good ones. I should be able to install the compressor and the rest of it outside. Coils on the bottom of a refrigerator is undoubtedly the stupidest architecture. And having to listen to the compressor isn't great either.

Thank you. That makes more sense. I think I did not parse parent's post right.

Unrelated to their finances, but they have an exceptional engineering team over there that I had the privilege of speaking with.

I’m sorry to see this happen.
If I'm following the numbers correctly it seems to functionally come out at max of ~60h/week where ~12 of that would be at an overtime rate. Not sure what that compares to before but it sounds like an increase in both base and overtime limits. Interesting the night shift wasn't allowed for women before.
> All insured depositors will have full access to their insured deposits no later than Monday morning, March 13, 2023. The FDIC will pay uninsured depositors an advance dividend within the next week.
Or maybe the conservative old guard banks do understand, that startups without reliable cash flow, or on a growth-at-all-costs trajectory, are poor lending prospects. Seems whatever you claim that SVB "understood" led to its demise.
> but I don't want to be a moderator. I prefer social networks like, say, Hacker News where moderation is handled for me.

I don't think we're disagreeing on that. Per my comment:

"I would ideally like this to be as automatic as possible, perhaps via default blocklists that update on an ongoing basis, that I can still opt out of if I really cared to do so."

The implication of that statement is that Hacker News (or in this case, Facebook) handles moderation, but under the framework laid out by the GP commenter, one can opt out of that, or perhaps even opt into different moderation regimes. Political news outlets, for example, might be motivated to create their own moderation regimes if they feel that Facebook (or whomever else) is too biased against XYZ political group in their moderation.

> Most people only use email for work and don't particularly enjoy it. They prefer to spend their free time on other social networks.

I would be careful about speaking for other people. Perhaps this is true for you, but I (for one) love subscribing to email newsletters, and those are a part of my daily information diet. I'm free to subscribe and unsubscribe as I please, and others are unable to prevent me from doing so. As we can see with the continued existence of platforms like Substack, there's clearly a demand for that. Also, insofar as one might not "particularly enjoy" email, it's not particularly clear that the root cause of that is email's censorship resistance. It could also be because the email protocol is missing features that one might desire in the kind of decentralized protocol Facebook might create.
We don’t really know yet if they will be getting most of their money back.

Nobody cancelled anyone. How can the alleged "rightwing" viewers or commentators cancel BBC? Can they fire the directors and ensure they dont get employed? Or what are you talking about?

Corrupt BBC managers decided this on their own.
> But, you can easily argue that "my child should never smoke". You cannot easily argue that "my child should never use social media".

That might be true now, but it could always change. Don't forget that we all used to think smoking was perfectly healthy.

I'm hoping that movies/shows in the future show how we currently use social media and it shocks people the same way media made now does with cigarettes because we realized how unhealthy it is.

It was super fun to bring together lots of different disciplines and skills. 3D printing, software, soldering, circuit design, simulation etc.

Ultimately, I got so obsessed with it I got burned out and had to take a break for a bit but came back fresh and finished it. Did a few flights over the year with more and more interesting things culminating in a dual stage flight. I've still got the rocket ready to go anytime. Just gotta wait for the weather to clear up.
We are talking about the United States. Not “anywhere in the world.” I find those arguments very frustrating because I don’t really feel like I should have to say that. We are not talking about somewhere where $10 can last you a week.

I'm not an expert, but aren't deposits in a bank liabilities? Assets are things like treasury bills and loans held by the bank.

This is quite funny from a german perspective.

My first thought when I saw the headline was "oh cool a start-up that disrupts dishwashing, I wonder what fancy overpowered tech they throw at the problem".

And then it turns out to be a Miele, one of the common go-to brands for household appliances in Germany.

Fun fact: Miele is actually one of the few companies that has technicians that carry a ton of spare parts in their vans, so when you got an issue you just call a number, get an appointment, and then somebody comes by your house and will probably get everything working again in an hour or two. They also carry custom made suitcases with build-in Thinkpads for diagnostics and a tiny desk for writing.
No because SVB has assets with value to sell. That's the "dividend" the FDIC refers to in the press release.

I have very little understanding of India. While reading the article, it sounds like the changes to Indian labor law would enable more hours to be worked. However, I don't understand whether this is a good or bad thing for the average worker (and/or woman) in India.
