It’s convention because it cancels out a lot of noise. (Both nominal.) And there are practical reasons for a larger economy needing more money to work than a smaller one. But if you prefer, it can be calculated in various ways, all of which tell a similar story: we’ve been in a different regime for the last 1 to 3 years in which there is less money, and a regime before that since 2008 when there was a lot more money.
Sorry to hear about your diagnosis. My wife is in her early 40’s and was recently diagnosed with leukemia. She’s still stage 0 (it was picked up from blood test results from annual physicals) and has no symptoms.

The hard thing about revealing your diagnosis is that the genie is out of the bottle. By taking time to process, you keep your optionality on what you choose to do.

Strong too good to be true vibes. Ammonia is an energy carrier, and in the conventional process that energy comes from H2. Atmospheric nitrogen and water are some of the most inert compounds in existence and that difference has to come from somewhere. Perhaps they just haven't identified the voltage or radiation yet? In a lab setting with an output that extrapolates to 0.005g/m2s, there can be a lot of inputs you just haven't successfully ruled out.
You can put things on the market, even if there's work to be done.

That's true, but PMs are motivated not to "embarrass" the monarch if it can be at all avoided. It would be a very unpopular move, as it was when Boris Johnson "advised" the late Queen to prorogue Parliament during the Brexit period. The PM would almost certainly come out worse unless the monarch really was up to something quite bad, and building on Crown land mightn't be bad enough.
Agree on Italy, disagree on Germany to an extent.

von Hindenburg being President or Wilhelm being Kaiser changes little assuming a death - in both cases there's a process to get someone to replace them (new elections for President, coronation of the heir apparent). Hitler's popularity and power allowed him to skip the whole process and just assume the position of Parliament too. I think that it would have been harder to do with the position of Kaiser (there were still plenty of monarchists even in Nazi Germany), but he still would have done so or at least done a Horthy, preventing the coronation and keeping himself as regent.

In terms of core ownership:

Albemarle Corporation is an American specialty chemicals manufacturing company based in Charlotte, North Carolina. It operates 3 divisions: lithium (68.4% of 2022 revenues), bromine specialties (19.3% of 2022 revenues) and catalysts (12.3% of 2022 revenues).

It holds significant part ownership of Australian located Lithium mines (and mines in Chile):

> Talison Minerals Pty Ltd was a mining company based in Australia. It was split into Talison Lithium (as of 2020 a 51:49 jv between Tianqi Lithium and Albemarle Corporation)

and:

> Tianqi Lithium Corp is a Chinese mining and manufacturing company based in Sichuan.

Ero: mining of concentrates is carried on Australian (and Chilean) soil and subject to Australian mining regulations (some of the highest in the world ATM) with the refinment of concentrates being carried in Malaysia (high standards), Australia (high standards), some in China (various standards).

The point being that mineral resource ownership and regulation is a complicated layered business and your inference is sketchy at best.

Cross-border terrorism is real. Real-time support (operational and financial) by foreign and local bad actors is real. Governments have a mandate to protect their citizens against them and have to keep up with the tactics, techniques and procedures of these bad actors. So, let's not be surprised or shocked when we see news like this.

Many apps in this list are also highly vulnerable. Threema, for example, was found to have serious security vulnerabilities due to rolling its own crypto implementations.

It is interesting to note that Signal, WhatsApp, iMessage and soon Twitter DMs – all of which claim to have E2E encryption – are not on this list.

Does that mean these companies have a way to break encryption and provide access to government when they ask for it? I suspect metadata is definitely accessible via these companies.

Interestingly these are all messengers that have mobile phone numbers as primary user handles whereas a lot of the banned messengers are not. So, its possible that there are phone number based zero-click exploits for these popular apps that governments across the world use (remember NSO?) whereas not for less popular apps.

This looks to be an interesting series; too often it’s really hard to find out what something once was. Some of the articles are about things that have been removed (like <keygen>), others are of things that are still actually there, though no one uses them any more (such as server-side image maps).

I hope one is written about <ISINDEX>. That element really confused me when I was young and it was already thoroughly on the way out (though I can’t remember whether it had quite been removed yet).

For something like this, remarks about the site itself can be fair game. Here’s an interesting one: the site actually uses XML syntax, something few realise is even possible these days, but which is rather interesting in its differences and incompatibilities. (Some affect authoring, e.g. whether <, & and > must or must not be entity-encoded inside <script> and <style>. Others affect runtime, e.g. many JavaScript libraries assume Element.prototype.tagName is uppercase, but it’s not in XML syntax.) Probably my favourite thing about XML syntax is that it lets you nest links (though it’s nominally invalid), which can’t be done in HTML syntax (though you can do it in a live DOM using JavaScript).

I don't even like zuck and I know that his point is sound. The future is to make a device that projects data right into the eye without the need for bulky devices everywhere, and there is hard engineering work that needs to be done in hardware, software and user experience to get us to that future. He wants to own that future. It's a sound vision.
POSIX shell scripting is just broken. Don't get me wrong. I love doing it, but from a language design point it is abysmal.

Just this week I tried to write a script to apply a custom function to a list of files. But the amount of time you spend just to make sure it works with special cases like spaces or new line characters in file names is not healthy. After all, it is probably one of the most standard scenarios.

First, I thought I would use 'find -execdir' or 'find | xargs', but neither supports shell functions. So I went on to take the 'while read' road, just to learn, that POSIX 'read', does not support all options you would need to make that work with all special cases.

Good point. Within organisms there are a number of survival mechanisms even in juveniles. Braitenberg hypothesized simple mechanical vehicles that evolved survival tactics. Not understanding the latter will ultimately be a fatal flaw irrespective of any insightful understanding of other problems. If Grothendieck had known he faced execution for failing to give a correct response, he would certainly have survived. I'd be interested to see AI configurations linked to a number of direct externalities (not linked to human derived/directed information) that might then determine their fate.

Nah, not really. The beauty of chess is that you can almost equally enjoy it at any skill level. The challenge is almost always the same of calculating and evaluating the position to the best of your abilities.

Same, we had so much more access to e.g. games (on different platforms); we didn't have the disposable income for consoles but we did save up for a PC and that basically launched my career.

On the other hand, that was an early indication of the entitlement that we have; we rail against the streaming services and resort to piracy not because it's unfair that they ask for money, but because we believe we're entitled to consume content. We're afraid of missing out, too.

So it's a bit of a mixed bag I think.

…Although I've found some of Beethoven's much more complex to follow. I reckon you're right about the 7th though, it remains one of my favorite and exciting of his works. Still, I know some who disagree citing it repetitive and boring (why they've arrived at this view beats me, must be their brains are wired very differently to mine).

On the matter of notes on paper and how they sound in actual performance, I reckon nothing betters Mozart. On reading the scores of some of his piano concertos some passages look so simple and trite that one wouldn't bother with them but upon performance they open out into a whole world of wonderful, complex emotions.

Most non-tui programs being run in terminals don't operate that way though, and tui stuff resizes just fine. ps, for example, only outputs text to fill the terminal size and truncates the overflow (which is why it's not safe to grep). Not reflowing makes a lot sense when compared to the complication and bugs reflowing would bring.
Yeah, a little bit. Our biology makes us unpredictable to a certain degree. In simple terms we're allowed to have a bad or a good day. LLM's remain unchangeable and simple mistakes they make can't be explained in the same manner I think.

The way it's been described to me, the ancient Egyptians viewed dung beetles sort of like a phoenix (phoenices?) or an ouroborous, because they believed the beetles to have the power of self-creation (from the mistaken assumption that a dung beetle could survive entirely on dung it produced itself). So I wouldn't be so sure it's an unintentional reference.

You say this about exactness, but my experience with much of science and ML in particular is the opposite.

People still haven't decided what the difference between AI and ML is, for instance, but somehow still insist to treat the two as obviously separate in conversations.

My experience has been that the naming problem is alive and well in the sciences; and it'sfar more problematic than in programming and variable naming.

Lots of countries do this, not only France. Military parades are an easy way to remember and commemorate the fallen in battles, and to remind the civilian population of the magnificent army protecting them.

But to your other point, yep, the French Fifth Republic has a very strong President figure (not a monarch on a few important distinctions like succession, but still). And after the failures of the Third and Fourth Republics that showed that compromise is complicated to achieve and without a strong position somewhere there is just pure chaos and instability, it was the only way forward.

> I do agree that we're currently in a hype cycle though; I just think it's akin to the 90s dotcom bubble.

Yes. I remember attending a professional conference around 1996 or 1997. One of the presenters spoke about the Internet and how we could supposedly use it in our work. Some people in the audience were doubtful (partly because the live demonstration didn’t go well due to problems getting a dial-up connection) and said it just seemed like a bunch of hype.

Someone in the audience responded, as I recall, “Yes, there is a lot of hype about the Internet now. But it’s clearly becoming useful, and it won’t be hype forever.”

I feel the same way now about LLMs.

One can argue that banks shouldn't be able to invest "normal" saving deposits, only things given them for long term (i.e. CDs).

Therefore, a client shouldn't expect interest on normal savings, but if they want to see their cash grow, have to give it to the bank in a manner that they gives the bank a higher level of guarantee that they wont withdraw it (and since the bank can't invest the "normal savings", that cash should always be there and a run should therefore be "impossible", or at least much harder).

This would make banking more expensive overall though, possibly changing the model where we essentially are paid to bank at a bank to having to pay to bank at a bank.
I don't see how chess has become more social. It's always been a very social game. You go to the chessclub, meet lots of interesting people, make friends. Tournaments are very social events too.

Playing online actually feels like the least social way of enjoying the game to me. I have no interest in chatting with random people, and most of the time someone tries to write something in chat it's an insult or accusation of cheating. Or just "gg", "nice tactic", etc.

Correct. JPMorgan “is not assuming First Republic’s corporate debt or preferred stock” [1]. Including that debt, the total value vaporised could be up to $40bn [2].

That said, JPMorgan acquired “substantially all of the assets of First Republic Bank,” so there will be scraps to fight over.

This is clearly geared towards developers, many who are using MacOS these days. I guess these same shortcuts work in zsh as well as bash then.

You can get the same on Windows by using WSL, or out of the box in Linux (usually).
I was going to say that if they kill RiF, I will most likely just never browse reddit, save from the odd web search that lands me in a thread.

But the truth is that I seldom visit Reddit right now. It grew worse over time to the point of being nearly intolerable to me. I suspect that is the fate of any network that grows to the point of becoming ubiquitous.

I don't think that Reddit will die, but I certainly won't be there to see what happened to it.
Thank you very much for the detailed response. I'll look at all those options. I've been using a Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 for ages and it is slowly disintegrating so I'll need a replacement in the next few years.

The quality has been great. It's lasted 15 or so years now.

I switched to an optimized keyboard layout (neo2 - German) in 2006 when I had carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands and then also switched to one of those ergonomic keyboards.

Now, I'm basically looking for a successor.

If he stopped the legislature doing something, there would be a “constitutional crisis” but whether or not he then lost the power to do that again would really depend on public opinion and how well judged his move was. I can imagine a scenario in which a corrupt and unpopular government is holding onto power by twisting the rules somehow, and the king says no. It would be chaos, but if the king had public opinion on his side it could work out well.

For me this is a strength of a constitutional monarchy over an appointed or elected but mostly ceremonial head of state. The people have a relationship with the king, they’ve grown up together and there’s a connection there that’s hard to define. In times of crisis that connection could play a key role.
