Daily reminder that bank runs wouldn't be a thing if we did duration matching, forbidding banks from borrowing short and lending long.

As always, the underlying problem in banking is that the banks are lying, telling two or more people they own the same dollar at the same point in time. If they locked deposits for a period of time they could safely (and morally) loan that money out without lying, and, in fact, there wouldn't need to be a reserve ratio at all.

Demand deposits should cost a low service fee, since the money can't be safely lent.

Yes, I'm a lot of fun at parties, why do you ask?
Unix sockets were released in java 16 officially though it was always supported before that in third party software.

C style fork() seems insane for any gc-type languages, so ?? Threading in Java post virtual threads has been so pleasant that I'm like why would one bother?

The vast majority of applications use third party logging and many have the ability to call out to syslogd.

I'm not entirely interested that every language fits perfectly into the UNIX classical "everything's a process / pipe" style model.
Materials costs? Honestly? It would take decades, what kind of materials do you think starting welders are practicing on? Grade2 titanium?

> if Defendants attempt to attack the thoroughness of the Government’s investigation, the Government may need to present evidence that its investigatory avenues were limited by Defendants’ use of encrypted messaging

Because this line of reasoning would result in outcomes that are contrary to the entire legal tradition of this country? Should the government be able to charge anyone who uses Signal because they can say "well, there would be evidence but it's all encrypted"? No one is calling the judge unreasonable, it's more a commentary about aggressive prosecutors.
I don't share your cynicism. If ChatGPT became pay-only, I'd start paying for it. It has revolutionized how I learn technical topics. Millions of others find it similarly useful. Crypto never had a technically valid use case, this does.
No, I literally have no idea what you are talking about and how could I? What a projection

> One cannot make a laboratory of the mind or use human beings as it’s lab rats.

That isn't the only way to subject philosophical ideas to empirical scrutiny, but whenever people use the historical evidence to determine things like how well different economic systems behave, for example, all of a sudden a lot of people get very angry and defensive and refuse to acknowledge the validity of prior experience.

> People will say “philosophy is a soft science! No experiments!” Without understanding that experiments cannot be done in this realm.

Some kinds of philosophy can be experimented on in some respects. For example: Does unquestioning obedience produce an ethical system that minimizes arbitrary killings? Well, I think we can look to the historical record and find the answer to that one, and conclude that it doesn't.

More deeply, though, how do we conclude that we care about arbitrary killing? That's a kind of question that we can't answer through experimentation, because the world doesn't outright tell us what values we should adopt. The most we can do is reason through the problem and then use experimentation (even retrospective experiments, as in history) to try to figure out which ethical systems support those values best.

That said... We're not blank slates. We're humans, we're social animals, so we care about certain things instinctively and, thus, some ethical systems are more humane than others in their outcomes.
Yes, but if a bank has to remind people of that, it may be a signal it has already lost.
What's the "cool Google dork".
Anecdotally about SVB and crypto; I really wanted to put my funding round assets into Silicon Valley Bank for my last start up. However, when I was speaking to their bankers, I mentioned that there was a possible element of the platform that would be Web3 based. The SVB team immediately paused my application and insisted that they do a deep dive into all of my investors, my bank accounts, and my pitch decks. My pitch deck did not include materials about web3 since it was so tertiary to our core strategy, and this discrepancy between what I had told them and the paper materials was such that it raised enough of an alarm at SVB that the refused to take my deposit.

They were really concerned about anything web3 so I wonder if they limited their exposure. Or maybe it was just us they didn’t like.

Meh. Pet peeve warning: I hate this. Sneaking in stuff like this that might save 1 or 2 characters every hundred or thousands of lines is just frustrating.

If I'm regularly discovering cute one-off things like this in a language I work in then I'm gonna hate the language. And unsurprisingly, I hate most modern languages.
I don't think I've ever seen a recommended short that's even close to what I usually watch on YouTube, it's minimal effort garbage content that's excessively loud or with obnoxious music for no reason, actual sewage.

if you randomly take 100, you wouldn't find 1 in 7 to be fraudulent. Fraud is not uniformly distributed. It is clustered mostly clustered around a few individuals. for the rest, if you look long enough, yeah you will likely find something fraudulent, but there's no way to find and fix those minor ones without harming real honest folks. But the fraudulent clusters, yeah those are worth identiifying.

This is cool from a tech perspective but the rest of me is cringing because there's simply nothing left untouched by tech. I love welding because it's so dang "real".

Makes sense from a teaching perspective (I guess) - certainly nice to cut down on material and consumable costs, and cutting and grinding materials.

What about pipe though? It seems this product only offers flat stock welding which seems like a Major limitation for real world welding practice.

Truly hope the "feature" of rod sticking and undercut are built into the software - those are major things to learn when starting out

Edit: guess the product is more MIG/wire feed focused so maybe rod stick is not relevant here

There's enough federal land in Arizona to do it.

The St James Bay project is a sequence of hydroelectric dams covering an area the size of Scotland -- and it was done in the sixties. We're going to need the power. It's unit-profitable. So really, the issue is where to stick it.

(It would, of course, be much more reasonable to simply cover the rooves of all existing buildings, which is a larger area, and have some accessory generation as well.)
> I assume you are either already rich or want to become rich because of your startups

You assume incorrectly. I am not rich by the standards of rich people (although I am rich by the standards of many others, but I think it's safe to say that most of the people reading my comment right now are wealthier than me), and I don't form startups because of a desire to gain wealth. I have no actual interest in amassing wealth as such.

I form startups because they give me the opportunity and freedom to engage in projects that deeply interest me.
> You don't need to join an early-stage startup – as a mid-to-senior engineer, even if you only join places that are series-B or later

I'd say the mid-growth time (series B and nearby but of course depends on the company) is a particularly bad time to join a startup. It is too late to get favorable stock options but too early to tell if it's going to be a home run. So for individual contributors it's pretty much all blind risk with low probability of reward.

Good times to join a startup are very early when the valuation is a couple pennies or less so you can get meaningful percentage of stock and you can early exercise all of it for little money and file 83b.

Or join late in the game startups that are big hits and clearly going to the IPO. Way less stock, but risk of failure is now small.

Do you also think they kidnapped and murdered Pierre Laporte, which is what precipitated the use of the WMA? How far down does this conspiracy theory go, exactly? Are we just going to, without any evidence, blame everything on the RCMP boogieman?

> Thankfully, some still read the constitution.

Did you miss the second part of this equation, where martial law is still a thing, it can still be declared by state governors, and will happily suspend your rights?

The only thing that happened in the lead-up to 2007 and again in 2008 was a change to who can declare it.

That's the other problem with 'reading the US constitution'. It's not exactly clear on the subject of when it can be set aside. The 68 invocations of martial law make it crystal-clear that it can be set aside, and does get set aside whenever someone feels like it [1]. But you're not going to find a single word in the constitution that explains why, who, and in what circumstances it can be set aside.

At least the CORAF is clear as on the subject of what it takes to set it aside - an Act of Parliament, and which parts of it can be set aside (Sections 2, 7-15 - pretty much all the important bits, aside from elections, and language rights).
Climate Tech companies have lots of jobs, are not laying people off, have financial tailwinds behind them thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, and, crucially, don’t derive their revenue from the adtech/digital media/ecommerce/developer tooling industry that’s getting shredded right now.

Agreed. GPT isn't recycling, regurgitating, or anything like that. It's more like remixing, which is pretty fascinating. It's like having an opinionated DJ that plays whatever you ask-ish.

The Miracle Morning could have been written in half a page.
I have learned to stay away from popular science and nonfiction writing. Almost every single such book could be less than 50 pages, but they are artificially extended. There are a few good ones, but they are rare and require great humility and honesty from the author.

I enjoy finding special nonfiction books that present the essence of a subject in an expedient way, but these are hard to find and they require a great focus from the author to stick to a specific topic or subtopic of huge fields.

Novels are different.
It's true that all banks have that problem, but for most banks it is not necessary for the CEO to remind everyone of that fact in a press release. The fact that they feel the need to make this statement makes it clear that SV bank is having much higher withdrawals than normal right now.
IMHO manual welding is interesting but ultimately robot arms are coming down so far in price in the near future it's soon going to be more useful to just straight up train people how to specify work for the arms.

Often really substantial experience is required to approach welding problems, including interpreting order intent (quantity and material related concerns such as jig and fixture design, adjacent process speed and cycle time affinities, likelihood of follow-on orders, etc.), interpreting drawings (often made by non-welders and potentially requiring feedback) plus understanding finished workpiece intent and loading, intermediate work holding and handling, welding process selection, shield gas and flow rate selection, manual dexterity and precision, bead material selection, optimal power levels, temperature monitoring, feed rates, environmental safety and pollution concerns, questions of finish including scratch prevention, grinding and polishing, cleaning, and potentially subsequent surface treatment, inspection and testing, etc.

If anyone wants to work on automation for these sorts of fabrication related problems, we will be hiring in a few months.
My understanding is that the problem was that the dollars they owned were in US treasuries, as required by law, and the value of those assets tanked.

Conifers (pine, cedar, fir) are trees but neither dicot or monocot, so outside the scope of this question.

Magnolias are trees and dicots (so expected).

Cabbage is a dicot but not a tree - not all dicots are trees. Maybe you misinterpreted my parent comment as me suggesting all dicots were trees? I more wanted to illustrate the key difference between grasses (which are monocots) and most trees
Of course there is cold start. Both Node and Deno use JIT compilation just like regular Java, which means they warm up. JS code will use more RAM than Java for equivalent constructs, not less. You may be fooled though, by the way that the JVM by default will use free RAM rather than burn energy/CPU collecting garbage when it doesn't need to. So it will look like your app is using a lot of RAM but in reality the JVM will give it up when asked.
Even if adapted, granted how specific it was to our field, and the punchline relevant to our industry, I would say it's still giving a real humans a run for their money.

If the Bank is federally insured, it's not a problem that the bank won't be able to make it work. That's why generally speaking bank runs only happen on uninsured banks in the US. SVB is not, as far as I can see, insured and should definitely be careful in their choice of words.
Of course they want to. Who doesn’t want to protect his or her intellectual property?

There are probably millions of people subscribed to Netflix merely because pirating Netflix content is inconvenient enough to make people rather pay. How many would reconsider this if the user experience of pirating was exactly as convenient as a paid Netflix account?

Most probably enough so that enacting DRM is the smaller price to pay.

These banking failures and mass unemployment would come right as interest rates are spiking. They also go hand in hand with banks dumping Treasury Bills for liquidity, which would cause a sharp decline in T-bill prices and a rise in T-bill rates.

The government finances its operations by issuing T-bills. If nobody is willing to buy T-bills, the government can't get cash to pay government employees, including the FBI, CIA, military, etc. It's unlikely that people are going to continue working if they don't get paid. Historically, governments that don't pay their soldiers, police, intelligence forces don't remain governments for long.
We used to call that concept matched-funding where I used to work and it was quite an important part of Asset/Liability management within the Risk Management function.
Widevine has been privately cracked/bypassed. The method hasn't been made public as it would obviously get patched rather quickly (if it even can be patched).

That's why Netflix content is available almost immediately on any decent tracker. The quality would not look nearly as good if it was grabbed using a capture card.

Like others have mentioned, it's security theater for the content owners who most likely require Netflix to have DRM in place in their contracts.
I don't have a detailed understanding of how runway shows work, but my understanding is someone is buying those clothes, even if those clothes in specific are not pret-a-porter. Even the pret-a-porter pieces from big name designers can be stuff that looks pretty crazy to me.

I'm more wondering how one would even begin to sell clothes some other way. And I guess I don't even really know how to ask the half-formed question rattling around in the back of my mind.
what's amazing to me is that the only reason you would pay up to double what other registrars charge is because of the free services they throw in.

I am not a welder.

That being said, I'd imagine the active circuitry required to capture and process the images in realtime (or 30fps, in this case) is expensive and bulkier than what's currently used. Processing stereoscopic 2048x2048 HDR streams is no easy task, you'd basically be looking at a VR helmet once you consider where to put battery and compute unit.

It's a cool invention, but probably one of those "analog computer" ideas that's harder to scale/apply than the cheaper alternatives.

Does that provide a better outcome for society than something like FDIC deposit insurance and the occasional run?

Seems like for the vast majority of people it does not. Most banks make enough money to pay their FDIC premiums and some interest on demand accounts and profit for their shareholders, and the few that don't are covered by insurance. That seems way better than having to pay a monthly fee to keep my money safe and liquid.

>there wouldn't need to be a reserve ratio at all.

Wouldn't there? The bank could still end up with bad loans in excess of their models and require some capital to take the loss before depositors. Or are you suggesting that banks are simply a market maker between depositors and those with loans? That seems even less optimal, societally.
Does something like that exist for Reddit? Whatever it is they use on their website is a janky piece crap.

> Node is slower but since it's single threaded they load balance a bunch of servers and in practice it's just as fast when considering the developer productivity

This sentence doesn't make any sense. It can't be both slower and just as fast, developer productivity is a totally different concept to performance. And being single threaded just means you have to spend more RAM to saturate your CPUs (threads are cheaper than processes), nothing stops you running many single threaded JVMs and load balancing across them, it's just inefficient.

Some random infographic I found suggests that the mortality associated with driving of all road vehicles is about 1.14 Fatalities per 100 Million Vehicle Miles Traveled. If we say that the average driver is mostly urban and mostly arterial driving, with a health amount on highway on a per hour basis that puts at us at about 1.14 fatalities per (100,000,000 * 1 hour / 45 miles ) 2 million hours.

I tried to find other routine activities with any element of risk that were safer than that and had trouble doing so.
