Part but not all. Having a 700+ credit score is pretty easy to accomplish with this level of income, but mortgages require a down payment. The target level of capital has been rising. At the same time rent rates have been rising. So if you make a combined $150k, $120k post tax, $90k take home after benefit bills, $60k after rent. That's plenty to live off of, but it is a lengthening horizon before you can afford a down payment, even with belt tightening exercises.
This doesn't appear to implement trimming the front and back, just the entire string.
"Still" renting, heavily implies that purchasing a home is some sort of inevitable conclusion that if you haven't done yet then something is wrong with you.

A) Not true

but also

B) 150k is not enough money to purchase homes in several major metro areas.
Executable code space from the CPU was the limitation; I forget if this was lower-level software or hardware.

> Overall though, my experience with neovim has been bad. […] and it was a sour taste having to research how to build an editor out of all the random building blocks

I've been in the same boat. I've been using vim for a long time (and before that nvi, and before that vi) and have over time built up a configuration that mostly works. Opinionated configuration systems don't do it for me, since they inevitably conflict with my opinions and muscle memory.

Until quite recently neovim couldn't handle my vim configuration, and in particular my key maps (issues with modifyOtherKeys) so I always gave up quickly. Recently I tried again, in order to use rust.vim, and got much further; I now only need a little bit of conditional configuration and a bit of divergence in active packages.
Pretty sure Jane Average would also include a charging port ;)

Joking aside, to my mind bog standard is by definition not given by Apple, enthusiasts, hardware hackers, USB-IF, or someone who never needs a port ever. My mom is very tech illiterate and even she uses a cheap wireless mouse, and other USB stuff.

It's obviously something Framework would have to research and think about. But I don't think it's unreasonable to say there is some definition of bog standard that should be able to serve 80% of customers. Where the 20% is made up of various niches that are happy to pay a premium for the modularity because they really need it.
> SVB might have lasted longer if their depositors had not been running for the exits. But why assume that lasting longer is a good thing? They might have got themselves into even more difficulty.

How is this different from, you know, most banks as they stand today?
It's a hassle—and some folks find it more a hassle than others, due to personality or circumstance—and you lose some money to transaction costs every time you sell. Which doesn't mean you lose money overall, if the property has appreciated, but it still stings.
That is part of it, but fewer people are getting married and having kids which was one of the main drivers for buying a home. And job hopping is more common.
that is a lie - the value of their assets is far below their liabilities. mods here need to somehow crack down on outright falsehoods
> Algorithms such as Knuth-Plass won’t necessarily eliminate widows and orphans, but might go some way to doing so. The reluctance to using such approaches is understandable, however, as they can be extremely demanding: the processing requirements increase quadratically with the paragraph length.

The leading contender for becoming the killer app seems to be (surprisingly to many, including the makers of all the early VR headsets) fitness.

Using various game mechanics, you can make exercise so much more fun in VR/AR than say, just a coach on a TV or just a boring screen on an exercise bike.

John Carmack has talked at length about how fitness games like Beat Saber and VR boxing surprised everybody to become by far the biggest category.

I don't know if Apple will excel in this product category like they did with phones and music players, or muddle along like they did with TV boxes and smart speakers, but I guarantee you they will present some new advances around Apple Fitness and enjoyable fitness/game software.

It's fun and it is also something people find deeply meaningful (makes you healthy, makes you live longer, makes you happy) and therefore willing to drop a few Gs on (assuming they have that kind of money) without spending a lot of thought trying to compare specs or figure out if the hardware is worth it.

A "bailout" implies taxpayer money going towards business owners. This is not the case.
Or they live in trendy urban neighborhoods where a 20% down payment is $200k, and that locks you into a monthly payment that is no less than renting, and is in a school district that they don't want to be in long term.
Honest question here, who really wants / needs autonomous cars so badly ?

I'm pretty sure that all big phone producers use some ML stuff to improve image quality, so I wouldn't call it "faking". But the marketing might've been a bit deceptive.

I wonder what people really expect though, afaik the camera has 10x optical zoom and after that up to 100x digital zoom. What does digital zoom mean? I'd say using normal scaling and other algorithms to improve quality.

I heard probably more hoopla about that SD card slot than anything else when it was announced.
Costs a fair bit to buy and sell. If the price of homes isn't going up very fast often times it's cheaper to rent than even the interest costs on your mortgage would be.

If knots are what's interest you more, then maybe you can have a look at the self-collision avoidance of "Repulsive Curves" http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~kmcrane/Projects/RepulsiveCurves/
In my area, with reasonable assumptions it takes about 12 years before buying become better than renting. There are calculators for that online.
Anybody who's worked with cables or ropes knows they spontaneously form knots quite easily. Would it be possible to utilize this property in manufacturing?

Recognizing these are some unique circumstances, over the last week, expectations for next week's FOMC meeting swung from a near-certain +25bp, to 75% +50bp / 25% +25bp, to 60% +25bp / 40% 0bp. Tomorrow, February's CPI data will be released which might help collapse this wave function.

The name game with Philips goes back many decades because there was once a vacuum tube manufacturer in the U.S.A. named ''Phillips'' (two ls), so they were forced to adopt new trade names for the lucrative North American market: the Norelco name for consumer appliances and the Maganavox name for consumer electronics. Their reputation for quality was excellent back then. Oddly, Canada's Bell Telephone subsidiary Northern Electric did not push Philips away from using the Norelco name. Nowadays those names have almost no connection to their original organization.
Starts? The current is hardly democracy or a republic. There's a whole lotta of illusion going on. And thus the need for a more accurate statement.

Ultrasensitive low cost magnetometers could usher in a wave of low cost MRIs. The burden would shift from exotic hardware and power electronics to signal processing and computational reconstruction, which scales great.
The VSCode Vim-keybinding plugin is subpar, so making a VS-Code plugin extension to nvim seems like the better choice indeed.

You can't "cut to the core of deep philosophical questions" when you don't know the basics. For example, this

> we can already comprehensively model some biological neurological systems in their entirety, in silicon.

is just patently wrong.

> How can we confidently state we know ChatGPT doesn't use neurological mechanisms, when we don't yet completely understand our own neurological mechanisms, nor emergent mechanisms that may be at work within ChatGPT?

How can we confidently state that the sun isn't alive when we don't ourselves know what life is? I mean, it's got different layers like a cell. It has a source of energy, a lifecycle and it eventually dies. The sun has been around for much longer than chatGPT so I think we should answer this question first.

> While we routinely "imagine" an objective reality that exists beyond our perception

I'll just say this - if you really want to believe you're a brain floating in space, why don't you live life like it's GTA? Because obviously none of it is real, right?

Look up 'solipsism', this isn't a new or for that matter important philosophical position. Unless you want to write about how much fun whatever video game you're playing is in lieu of reality.
It all 100% depends. I live in lower Manhattan and it's hard to justify buying in almost all situations. It only pays off much further down the line, but it might not ever pay off at all if you consider the opportunity cost for your money.
“Destroyed my last bank” isn’t great resume fodder. I would imagine they’re doing the jobs they do because they either can’t afford to retire, or do not want to retire. I think no one wants to destroy their careers. I do find it fascinating that bankers are one of the few professions that if you go bankrupt the public opinion is no torture is sufficient for the principals.

I'm glad to see Chris Date in the paper.

Chris Date has been railing about no RDBMS being an RDBMS for decades.

They aren't "complaining" about Codd, anymore than Einstein "complained" about Newton. They are making valid academic criticisms, discussing solutions, and lamenting that in the past 50 years those solutions have not been implemented in practice.
Well, the Framework doesn't give you most of those options. You get 4 total of any of the following: USB-A, USB-C, DisplayPort, HDMI, MicroSD, Ethernet. (In practice a USB-C is mandatory for charging.) Plus built-in headphone. If you want any more than that, or anything different, you're gonna need a USB dongle like any other laptop.
They claim the structure is tougher (absorbs more energy) not stronger (maximum force before breaks). As far as I see they say nothing about if it is stronger or weaker than straight lines. Likely because it is weaker due to the curvatures leading to stress peaks in the material before the ultimate force of two straight filaments was reached. They should have presented the force-displacement diagram too which is essential data (maybe the original article has it). I'd be curious seeing the force-displacement diagram of the two illustrated experiment compared to the diagram of two straight fibres tested.

Also I guess the toughness is just a relative matter to the dimensions of the structure but since uses much more material than two straigh fibres it is less tough by weight (due to the decreased strength). If the same amount of material was connecting the top and bottom with straight lines then that would lead to the toughest situation of all (absorbing the most energy). Again, guessing.

In the video the woven material may have tighter threads with stronger friction or more uneven friction distribution leading to reaching the yield limit of the filaments quicker. The woven with some 'lubrication' should have had similar properties assuming the same amount (length or weight) of material included. I'd also be curious then about the reproducibility of the results on the same kind of structure. Like if making the same knotted pattern would lead to the same results or slight deviation of geometry was affecting the end results significantly.
A question - doesn't using any US cloud provider mean that your data is accessible to all sorts of 3 letter agencies without any warrant and informing you about the fact it was accessed?
No you didn’t? You mentioned that argument many times? You can’t talk about pesos, then dollars, then yen, but pretend you forgot to talk about money.
My tiny summary:

They have a _ton_ of liquidity (~$100 billion) so "hold to maturity" unrealized losses aren't going to have to be realized - they can just hold them to maturity.

Also, they claim all their fundamentals are strong and improving with booming deposits, strong margins, etc.

What's more, 80% of their deposit base is fully covered by FDIC insurance.

I would assume that any data sales have some sort of written agreement for what the data will be used for. In this case it would be that the people who signed the agreement lied.
I use it daily and i love the way it works more like kankoune.

But it definitely misses support for multiple lsp's per file and plugins.

Otherwise it just works.

With `hx --health` you can see what executable you need to have a specific LSP working and most of the languages are really zero conf.

I'm also using the master branch version, as the last release is some time ago, but it still works even though it is not a "stable releae".
We could also have private school and private communities that advertise ease of healthy living. But so long as a school run by government, they might as well teach useful things like taking good care of one's health, including school lunch that is a realistic, non-bland example of what one can enjoy eating and at the same time don't become a balloon. Or if we can have vouchers and parents can choose schools that do that, that's great.
Just to be clear, SVE is similar to AVX512 but the “Scalable” part is that the length is not hard-coded to any set number of bits or elements. It is more like the vector computers of old, such as the Cray-1.

This means there is no need for continually updating the instruction set with longer and longer versions of the same instructions. Hopefully this leads to a more stable base and wider adoption, we’ll see how that works in practice though!
It is indeed very brief.

Something I've been wondering about lately is how much language developers get to code in their actual language. Perhaps if things get really really far along, the language interpreter/compiler/runtime/whatever becomes self-hosting. But I suspect many languages never actually get that far. I was just thinking about the fact that maybe most language developers today still code in C (I have no idea if this is actually true). Perhaps in the future they will code in Rust or Go.

He does briefly speak to part of this point:

> I don't think I'd change anything in them except to emphasise more that a programming language is a Human-Computer-Interface and the language designer should design for the users of the language, not just for himself or herself.

I personally have never used Rexx. But I remember many years ago I made an attempt to sign up for an OS/2 Warp beta and being shocked when I actually got picked. I recall installing it and the OS contained what was the first instance I had seen of some sort of voice control for computers. Even at the time my IBM PS/2 (a 386sx running at 20MHz) was at the low end of the requirements for OS/2 Warp and the system didn't perform very well at all. But I have a memory of speaking something like "Computer: Go to sleep!" and my brother laughing at me and repeating it from time-to-time after that, long after I'd uninstalled OS/2 and went back to Windows 3.11 or DOS or whatever I was running in those days.
OTOH, I have several very deep, meaningful and valuable friendships, spanning decades, with people I've never been physically near. Losing the ability to develop those sorts of relationships is a very real loss.

And I have never stopped seeing my IRL friends in person. Those, I almost never talk with electronically.

What about two loops attached rigidly to each other, with currents running in opposite directions? (I suppose that for practical stability a larger ring of coils would be needed.)

Dishwashers use much less soap and water than handwashing.

If you wash with hot water, they frequently use less energy than handwashing, too, as they use approximately an order of magnitude less water.

By reading the news. The fdic insurance is the absolute minimum you can recoup. It’s not a cap, it’s a floor. The fed, treasury, etc have said no business disruption will occur for depositors or customers.
Personal response to this, despite owning a home, is that there always seems to be some reason the media/news stories are making the home market sound shaky when they're actually talking about the viability of the house flipping market. The same can be said for wall street with big reports of days that have large losses, etc when over time its generally a longer term win.

I will say the value of not having to worry about your toilets, oven, etc when you're career centered has intrinsic value not tied into the money you'd make over time owning the asset. I hate having to deal with that stuff with the little free time I have.
IIRC a lot of the issues with competitors and battery life are an issue for Windows, and not their hardware. As long as Windows remains a hunk of junk they can't get close to Mac battery life levels without you having to cart around a much heavier battery.
Best hacks I've found: Get a young dog, get really into YT cooking shows.

Dog will get you out and moving in any weather. They really don't understand why you're too tired for a walk this evening.

YT cooking shows will show the fun side of cooking and get you to make food at home more. Then you're less likely to put so much oil/butter/sugar/etc into dishes vs. eating out. And you also get a taste for vegetables. You kinda tend to eat healthier in general-ish.

Combine all that with a good sleep routine and you're pointed in the right direction. Takes about 3 months though.

Mortgage is such a huge leverage (with the risks that come with it)

I have to re-run the numbers all the time because my guts keep telling me to buy. Probably due of my cultural background where the first thing everybody did was buying a house.
I would have thought it was higher to be honest.

Basically anyone with any job mobility should be in this bucket.
curious that "rent seeking" is an end-game in small (individual) capital endeavors. There was an individual real-estate agent in the SF Bay Area recently who leveraged, bought, sold repeat.. in a brutally competitive environment, including surviving 2008 events. The end game of almost fifteen years of this relentless effort? purchasing an 18 unit apartment building in a flyover state and moving out of California.

Why is this remarkable? because the fodder for the business was private homes. It is like porn for some people. Flipping houses is tangible and real. If you enjoy watching your competition get crushed by pressure and cash flow problems, more's the better. Yet, these houses were not stable places for families or DINKs .. they were chips on a table. And where did that ultimate money go? into RENTALS.. because MONEY. Zero new houses were built. Stability of life was undermined as table stakes. There are a dozen winners and hundreds of losers, seen and unseen. Drink to that! the side effects? brutal alcoholism, soul loss.. things that could have been but were left in the rush to the seven figure check.

This is true in theory but mortgages are the largest levered bet a regular individual can make, and there are other systemic incentives around home ownership making that bet play out disproportionately well
> where people want to live, there are restrictions on building adequate housing

Sadly there is a bit of the reverse effect too, i.e. people want to live in places because there are restrictions on building.
It's an important distinction as we move into a statically-usually-true AI future (vs the deterministically-true recent past). It doesn't matter until it does.

Showing pretty pictures of the moon on Instagram? Doesn't matter.

Planning a rover trip across the surface of the moon? Does matter.

And while it may be absurd to expect anyone is planning the latter, the problem is that nowhere in the marketing or documentation of the future as-exists is there sufficient information to determine what use cases it should not be used for.
