You truly thought I didn't realize that "3.14" is an abbreviated representation of π, or that I somehow missed years and years of using the "repeating" sign above various decimal representations, or all those "..."s, such that it was plausible I meant the obviously-wrong thing rather than the correct thing? This stuff is hammered in in US K-12 school.

[EDIT] Look, I don't mean to be a dick, performative misreading and plainly-unnecessary "correction" are just two of my least-favorite types of HN post. I probably should have just downvoted the original performative misreading (not yours, the one up-thread) and not Assumed Good Faith that the original poster genuinely doesn't understand what every non-math-nerd means when they say or write "decimal number" (it's the ones you write with a decimal. It's... so very simple, that's why non-math-nerds use that and not "real number", the definition of which they've long since forgotten. "Well but you can't actually represent irrationals them entirely in decimal notation" great, wonderful, has zero bearing on what people mean by it).
From TechCrunch on March 1, 2023: "Starting today, OpenAI says that it won’t use any data submitted through its API for “service improvements,” including AI model training, unless a customer or organization opts in."

So prior to that, they were willing to use your data for model training. Every service may have leaks/security issues, but few say they'll purposely use your data. OpenAI probably should've promised not to use your data from the beginning; it'll be a hard perception to change now.

Why? You can group 30 into sets of 3 (3 x 10), but 30 is still even, so your definition of odd doesn't hold.

Then you explain the properties of that infinity, like how infinity + infinity = infinity, or (as per OP) that it's even.
I prefer this over a site with no visible advertising.
Floats are approximations of the reals and -0 is just the limit towards zero from the left.
how is it related to turing-complete?

I mean, if python has some unnecessary performance-killing while loops hidden inside, it can be 35000x slower for everything regardless of 'turing-complete'
SVNs heyday is closer to 15 years ago at this point.
You can only experience the external world through your consciousness. Certain contents of consciousness we assume to have an external correlate, others not, but there is no way to bypass our minds and check directly. Any given civilization has its own picture of reality, and draws its own line separating objective from subjective. We have a fairly conservative model of what is real, due to the influence of the scientific method, but the choice is ultimately arbitrary.
Healthcare, too.
The definition given was 'if there is another ordinal 𝛽 such that 2⋅𝛽=𝛼' [1], but the intuition is better explained by the post below:

> A set 𝑆 has even cardinality if it can be written as the disjoint union of two subsets 𝐴,𝐵 which have the same cardinality. [2]

In other words, a set is even if it can be paired up, by finding one grouping where it pairs. Finding alternative groupings that do not pair does not matter.

But that seems redundant with countable/uncountable sets, because then every countable infinite set would be even (e.g. rational numbers), and every uncountable infinite set would be odd (e.g. real numbers).

It's also not clear to me what justification there would be for a "preference" for the "even" category that way -- it seems arbitrary. Why not be odd if there exists a way to pair things off such that one is left over, and even if there isn't such a way?

Any solutions for organic KNF / JADAM hybrid growers to pass the new microbial / mold / mildew / fungal testing requirements that just tightened?

In OR, the rules went from "who can produce the cheapest?" (Regenerative soil.) to "who can do clean room hydroponics with money gained from operating dispensaries" overnight.

The entire organic movement is struggling to find a solution since our entire premise is to cultivate good "fauna" and not allow the bad stuff to gain large colony size. We cull weak plants, introduce predatory insects, utilize myco to innoculate soil and overall avoid the headaches general to monocropping.

These are Arxiv-reading plant hackers, struggling with a sudden change, and it's chemicals all the way down...

I've worked throughout the industry since legal, retail, production, field sampling / analytical lab tech, etoh extraction, and gMP manuf. / distro. I've seen a lot of solutions, and the industry has overcome a lot on the legal side.

But I'd like to speak for all Oregonians in stating that if we don't have safety testing that matches what's really possible, producers will route around the problem by shopping labs for those who will assure greater possibility of passing these now much more strict myco/microbial testing.

They did it with potency...

Any thoughts for solutions that are more immediate and actionable, like how we can organically pass testing than gaming the test itself?

I've watched it personally affect solid facilities and programs, tens of millions in losses during a razor thin market. People get desperate and do weird unsafe things to product, like spray vinegar, peroxide, physan, late-flower synth treatments, antifungals for ornamentals (think pgrs are bad?), and I'm sure worse.

Any simple treatments techniques or procedure advice is very humbly appreciated. I'll pass it on to the communities it affects.
Gonna be funny watching IBM apply their consulting methodology to themselves.
It is a valid concern if you send an entire list of confidential data and ask it to transform that list. However if you ask ChatGPT some questions about coding in general it's no different than searching online.
And the historical context behind Lenin’s words was that in a early state of socialism (like the beginnings of the Soviet Union) it needs tons of immediate forced labor to industrialize to come to a point where it can provide the basic needs for all people (to eventually advance into full communism.) In other words, things were pretty dire. To quote the full text:

“The socialist principle, "He who does not work shall not eat", is already realized; the other socialist principle, "An equal amount of products for an equal amount of labor", is also already realized. But this is not yet communism, and it does not yet abolish "bourgeois law", which gives unequal individuals, in return for unequal (really unequal) amounts of labor, equal amounts of products. This is a "defect" according to Marx, but it is unavoidable in the first phase of communism; for if we are not to indulge in utopianism, we must not think that having overthrown capitalism people will at once learn to work for society without any rules of law.” (Chapter 5, Section 3, "The First Phase of Communist Society")

You can’t say the same thing to the US, which already has an advanced economy with most agricultural/industrial production being heavily automated or offshored, and where a large portion of people are working unproductive bullshit jobs in order to just have a living wage.
> I don't know how you can claim the art and music derived under influence as positive benefits.

For the millions (billions?) of people who have enjoyed this art, I'd say it's pretty positive.

FWIW I also think alcohol should remain legal and would literally never give up a good after-work beer. People are capable of having positive relationships with alcohol.
Why it is bad practice ... ?
Not to be confused with Quic.
Enough people drop out of the race, or are filtered out, that it becomes effectively zero sum.

A common control in sociological studies of educational systems is to compare people who are just above a particular cutoff (say a 2.00 GPA), and just below that cutoff (say a 1.99 GPA). These people are often effectively equivalent except for one good or bad day, or one harsh or forgiving instructor.

If an academic department makes 15 positions available for graduate students, it will have 15 graduate students. Regardless. Is the 16th applicant who just didn't make the cut worse than the 15th who did? Probably not. And they might have been better, or at least have been a better fit.

Revenues have actually declined on a per-state level for three years now in some states despite inflation. General sales tax receipts are up by 27% since 2020 [0] and meanwhile California's weed sales are down. Even better, until recently they were rising at a rapid pace, having rose 2.82x from Q1 2018 to Q2 2020. [1]

The reason why is obvious to anyone who's attended a party in the last few years: weed isn't cool anymore. Partly by being illegal, it used to be cool, but now it's accessible to anyone. A lot of people had that realization when they heard "oh, I'm into weed now" from their uncool middle-aged uncle whose previous hobbies had included LARPing and painting miniatures. It's not even just about the legality though: smoking a joint is a hell of a lot cooler than sucking on a USB stick that smells like candy grapes, and vapes, being far more convenient, have now been tied to weed's image. Something being cool is far better marketing than any ad ever designed.

The problem is that the Fed is trying to fight inflation while also trying to keep the banks from having to recognize the losses in their HTM portfolios. In a sane world, Congress would raise taxes and cut federal spending to suck money out of the economy to fight inflation, thereby easing the need for the Fed to keep raising interest rates. Unfortunately, we don't live in a sane world.

All you need is a triggering event now to cause a run on the banks, and we're going to get to relive the Savings & Loan crisis all over again.

After this is all said and done, the Fed needs to really have its hands tied. No more ZIRP for a decade.
"What a convenient coincidence. Mind you, it was absolutely uncorrelated. Everybody knows that everything <a big corp> does is for better security." - a typical bitter sarcasm nowadays.
Racism and homophobia aren't banned so what is your argument?

> In other words attempting to subtract one from infinity by removing from the front results in infinity.

And I regret to inform you that if you read more carefully, you will find that my comment above makes use of that very same property of infinity. Not only do I already know it; that's the joke.

Specifically, that statements about omega are also statements about 1 + omega. The parent post saying "I think that infinity must be even" is such a statement. Regardless of if it's true or not, well-defined or not, coherent or not, it's equally all that about (infinity - 1).

Should I also spell out that an argument that "n - 1 is even" is also an argument that "n is odd" ?
They're cutting edge on quantum computing, can't think of anything more computer science than that.
I agree, my rhetoric on TPM is rather elementary.

From my perspective TPM is mostly about compliance with security directives. Actual security engineers would realize the TPM's security provided is about as far as you can throw it. You have no idea who designed the thing, who manufactured it, or who swapped it out while it was in shipping to you.

You seem to be interpreting a license as a legal formality that shouldn't be taken so literally.

It is a form of very explicit and literal communication. Unfortunately you sent an unambiguous message to the world inviting them to do this.

Because in reality, "meeting the needs of advertisers" is not a prerequisite to "protecting people's privacy." It's a false premise that Google constructed and which only exists because the dominant browser is created by an advertising company.

A browser that truly protected people's privacy would definitionally not meet the needs of advertisers, because those needs are in direct opposition to people's need for privacy.
I recently bought age restricted materials online and had to upload a picture of my photo id with a selfie to a 3rd party verifier. Similar to what crypto currency verification goes through.

I think the underlying disagreement/debate is whether or not these initiatives are in good faith. Any implementation of this is going to be imperfect and a motivated person will probably be able to get around this. So the debate, I think, is, if we implement this are we going to incrementally improve it? Or is it just a pretext to point to and say, hey look, this can never work perfectly, so we should ban x, y, and z.
You also want to consider whether it's more valuable to you personally to have that cash in hand. Are you going to roll it into another investment? Then maybe a low enough interest rate on the loan will put you out ahead despite paying interest.
Much more reasonable answer than the others in the thread
Funny this came out right before the rates are to be raised tomorrow.

These bank CEOs had to know Interest Rates were going to raise, I knew it would happen eventually. So they should have started slowly selling their low rate assets years ago. Instead the got hooked on Free Money from the Fed.

Wall Street has been selling low performing assets for a while. I heard stocks are priced to the presumed Interest Rate Markets. So to the banks: stupid is as stupid does.
From the article:

>One of the 10 most vulnerable banks is a globally systemic entity with assets of over $1 trillion. Three others are large banks. “It is not just a problem for banks under $250bn that didn’t have to pass stress tests,” he said.
It's not true, though. You can eat decently more cheaply than you can eat junk food. People just like junk food better, and stuffing your belly with high-carb "comfort food" is basically a compensation mechanism if not an addiction.
It's kind of collapsing on its own.
As noted in a different thread, I have found that the return options you get differ based on which option you pick. Sometimes this means you have to pay 5-10 bucks for a scheduled UPS pickup, or spend 5-10 mins on the phone with Amazon getting them to process the return as complimentary.

I don't understand how this is consistent with the "free returns, for any reason" policy on so many of the items that I've bought.
Sideberry does that and also puts the tab bar sideways
They did and it failed miserably.
It's not like that at all, considering in many other parts of the world, the opposite trend is present - the poor people are thin, and the richer people are fatter.

There's nothing stopping rich-country poor people from eating like poor-country poor people, except the lack of life skills and desire.

This phenomena is sometimes exemplified on certain reddit subs, where people will post complaints "Here's all the groceries I can buy in my budget of $X. Guess I'm going hungry this month". And then they post pictures filled with processed/packaged food which is far more expensive than if they made better purchasing decisions. eg www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/10o985p
Is my book that dangerous?
It's nice to have the luxury of spare time. Many people don't. Or they have to budget it extremely tightly.
Sounds good to me, honestly. Or rather better than a system where moral busybodies seem to think they can get me to attach my name to porn consumption.
I cited the stress tests that you were referring to. Do you have anything to say about the fact that the stress tests did not model reality? Did you read tables 2.A and 3.A in the stress tests document? If you're so eager to bring up the stress tests, why do you shirk any attempt to understand what the stress tests modeled?

Also, I do not care who the Fed points the finger at, especially considering their stress tests failed to predict the future in which interest rates rose as dramatically as they have over the last year and a half. Incidentally, interest rates are one of the only things the Fed has control over, so you might take some time to ponder the total absuridity that their stress tests failed to model for something they ended up doing in the real world.

This is very true, the pen, ink, and paper work together to form a system. They all have some effect on all of the variables such as flow, ease of movement, drying time, etc. For the most part modern ink are better in every aspect compared to classic inks.
n+1. Most people are just going to cheat because people generally prefer instant gratification. This is just how they've legitimized the existence of it.
I mean that node-posgres doesn't encourage anyone to include parameter values through string concatenation, at least no more than porsager or other SQL-based clients.

Not sure what ORMs have to do with it. They do include a safe parameter substitution mechanism, but so do typical SQL-based clients.
You realize a lot of the reason why people are in therapy is because of family, friends, and mentors? Like it's not a lack of initiative, or a lack of communicating; it's being shamed by your own family, being manipulated by friends, etc. So many of these problems stem because humans are fucking complicated (and sometimes cruel) as hell.

So no, therapy is not part of the problem. Just because in your hypothetical scenario therapy has now been spread across multiple roles instead of a dedicated one, doesn't mean it ceases to exist - you are now expecting your family, friends, mentors, etc. to act as your therapist at will.

Unless you assume people are in therapy just because they get annoyed at how their lover eats breakfast, or whatever superficial aspect that could easily be solved with some chat. I don't know many people paying the cost of therapy for superficial problems like that but hey maybe in your community they do!
So, it's tracking just not intrusive tracking?
In the case of the report, they are only counting assets as the bank's investment purchases. But banks also usually have money from investors. So in a lot of cases investors will eat the loss until such a time as the banks have cycled through their bad investments. And presumably there is a lot of upside if their newer investments are getting set at a much higher interest rate.
My favorite architecture combines raw elements (concrete, brick, structural supports) with softer touches. To me, the exposed skeleton denotes honesty and stability.

Résumé/CV: https://dillonbrown.me/resume.pdf

Portfolio/Website: https://dillonbrown.me

Hello, my name is Dillon and I want to help you create cool stuff. I'm looking for UI and UX positions, as well as junior web development work.

I'm really into usability, especially when it comes to designing app interfaces. I like making people's lives a little easier with the skills I have. I'm always thinking about how technology can be improved and how people interact with it.

User interface design is my passion and I can do some basic front-end web development. Plain old HTML and CSS are my tools of choice. I can hack together some JavaScript given enough time. By far the most impressive JavaScript I have cobbled together is for an open-source web app I built as a passion project, which can be seen here [1]. Please take a look at my portfolio [2] to see some of my favorite projects.

> There's no parity within a countable infinite as you describe.

That directly contradicts the quoted text I included from the original answer though, as far as I understand. It directly asserted that "every infinite cardinal is even".

> It's a kind of relative parity.

What is relative parity? The original question was whether infinity is even or odd... I don't know what you mean by relative parity.
Same here very rarely I have issues.

Even the fully local translation is really usable now <3. I don't use chrome for anything and it's not even installed on my daily driver anymore.

Ironically, the only time I have had issues, overriding the user agent to look like chrome or edge fixed it. So those websites were deliberately broken with Firefox, not Mozilla's fault but pure malice and dark patterns. Office 365 is one of these sites by the way.

It's a superset of Python. What you call "Python" is actually CPython, a C implementation of the Python language. Many other Python implementations exist, though they typically don't support all packages well (for example lack of support of native Python extensions like what Numpy relies on). It looks like Mojo has its own runtime (so not CPython) but also packages CPython for compatibility?

> I long for the days where I was able to pay for a piece of software.

You can pay for software, but you'll still be the product. Just like how it's the case here with Windows.

It's ironic how the best software are often made by unpaid volunteers. Compare that with commercial software. Most of them are bloated and user-hostile.
It's a myth that "prohibition doesn't work" which is one of the roots of this type of thinking. It does actually work (e.g. reduce alcoholism, increase health) but it also leads to the increase in organized crime which became much more of a problem.
You are exactly describing what all of these banks did.

What happens to the value of 4% bonds if interest rates go to 6%? What about if people want their money back before the bond duration is up, so you have to sell the 4% bonds in a 6% environment?
