Reddit mods are causally picked by the users. If they don't tow the users' line you're looking at even more drama (there has already been tons of mod drama in the past). The slightest hint of power hungering is enough to set off a wildfire across the site, so anyone that is lining up is probably unqualified to begin with.

The current set of volunteer mods are by far Reddit's largest asset - especially on the major subs.

They don't have a different opinion. They have the null position of "who cares?".

The people being referred to in the above comment aren't people who have thought in any depth about the issue of privacy and the boundaries that should be put in place to prevent abuse of violation of individual privacy and come to a contrary opinion. It's about people who are so completely heads down in their tiny vision of work and life that they've never really thought about the issue and only see things like "individual right to privacy" as annoying roadblocks they have to deal with to do what they're paid to do.

The annoyance and frustration is with the apathy towards and issue, not with contradictory opinions.

People don't study history and so we're doomed to repeat it. The reason why the Nazi holocaust of jews was most effective in the Netherlands is because of how incredible that country's record keeping was. You could argue that the violation of privacy might not be terribly abused today, but the people in charge today won't be in charge forever.

A very longwinded essay whose obvious conclusion - that values will change in response to circumstances - is entirely missed, presumably to make problematising educated women the tacit point instead.

People learn and change: increasing numbers of women in education now will mean more relationships where expectations have changed in the future. This is likely to mean that, actually, some men with lower incomes than their partners stay at home to look after the kids. It is a natural consequence of an unequal society with greater parity of educational access. That's all.

It might suck for people who can't get over it, but on the whole, it'll improve society no end to see more fathers being full time carers for their children.

In all likelihood, we'll see a change of attitudes so that women will look for different things: domesticity seems the obvious choice. And frankly, it'll be nice to live in a world where doing the dishes is a personal characteristic that someone might value equally with income.

---

Not too related to the above, but the measurements of what women value is very likely to be WEIRD - Western, Educated, Industrialised, and the other two I forget. Economists have a hammer, so everything looks like a nail ($).
Yet surely these are configurable?

I've had numerous instances in Europe, particularly in Ireland and the UK, of shops, grocers, cafes, etc with touchscreen POS devices that ask customers for a tip percentage with every sale, only for the staff to quickly reach over on every sale and press "no tip". It seems like a rather inefficient way of not having tips. I don't know, however, whether it comes from owners trying to establish tipping and staff disagreeing, or an inability, administratively or technically, to figure out the configuration.
> And investigations obviously take time.

Maybe the SEC will be able to lay out in court that they have been very busy with their investigation since 2019 (the date they are alleging is the latest Coinbase started trading securities).

I doubt it - but even if so, that's just not good enough.

Crypto sceptics generally agree that the SEC has been asleep at the wheel. What they aren't willing to acknowledge is that there are basic, non-crypto-related due process concerns with a regulator who lets a company operate, very publically and thus with its tacit approval, for basically a decade (that is how hold this debate around securities law is) - before then deciding they don't like it after all.
I've used Gandi as a registrar and for personal email for about a decade.

I've received no email/notifications about any changes in regards to my services so this FAQ about a new mailbox service that I never knew existed is rather confusing.
Most of the reason Reddit works at all is because of the huge number of volunteers doing moderation because they're passionate about their sub. If Reddit had to pay for moderators they would be bankrupt in a very short time. And even if it did replace mods with its own people (whether paid or not) the quality of the sub will drop.

Along these lines, in a recent interview with the First Lady of Iceland, she recommends that tourists who want to meet real Icelanders should visit a swimming pool:

"They say if you want to meet a Brit, go to a pub; if you want to meet a French person, go to a cafe. And definitely here in Iceland, you go to a swimming pool, because that’s where you can meet people — morning, afternoon or evening. And I recommend that visitors try different pools, because they all have their own character and personality and you can meet different types of people. They’re clean and affordable, and it’s something that all the locals do."

What do seasons look like on a circumbinary planet?

I know that it's still going to be orbiting a center of mass somewhere between the two stars, but is that orbital ellipse significantly different from a planet orbiting one star?

And as the stars themselves are farther from the center of mass and relatively closer to the orbital ellipse, how does that change the behaviors at the equinox? It seems like there will be points on the long axis of the ellipse which are not the equinox but where one sun or another will be closer to the planet than at the equinox.

The reddit API serves no ads. The Apollo app is ad free and only asks for a one-time payment for posting and a subscription to support development which comes with a lot of nifty but ultimately completely useless features. No third party app is blocking any ads from reddit because there's nothing to block

It has little to do with lack of empathy. I've found the problem is far more to do with oversharing conclusions based on observations. Empathy is typically in hindsight. You expect the other person to be intelligent, observant, reasonable, and logical. What you did say is not something that would have offended yourself or other like-minded individuals. So when it does offend, the empathy kicks in and you realize your mistake. Which is often just over-estimating the other person.

What if there isn't positive equity left in the banks? What about opportunity cost? The money for the bail out likely needs to be borrowed, what about inflation and anemic economic growth due to interest costs?
Well, yes, but that's kind of the point - it's just a chemical change in the brain which results in changed perception. Whether you think of that process as therapeutic or recreational depends on the context and your worldview.
Another thing that probably irked Reddit was that Apollo, RedditIsFun, and the other popular clients were monetizing their apps by including their own ads, charging a one-time or monthly fee. I'm surprised that wasn't against their API terms.
Now this looks impressive!

They may not be idiots, but has the value of the buildings also plummeted? This could be akin to the toxic mortgage loans of years ago, just without the predatory lending that jacked up the values. Doesn't matter, too much, if the values just dropped naturally versus having been inflated by poor lending practices.
> It’s pro bono legal advice.

No, it's asking an agency to clarify its own rules.

If I, as a ham radio enthusiast, find an unclear section of the FCC rules I expect to be able to contact someone and ask what the agency's understanding of it is. They wrote it after all.

For example, if they wrote 5-15Mhz, I might wonder if they mean inclusively. Does that cover 15Mhz, or just 14.9999?

I'm not expecting them to preemptively rule on all legal cases which depend on this, just on their interpretation of their own words.
> If FP is say 15% more productive

"more productive" is not a singular metric. What indefinite 15% year over year growth in mainstream tech requires is (in addition to favorable market conditions) the ability to get useful work out of huge numbers of very inexperienced people.

Clearly Scheme, for instance, cannot do this better than Java. But this tells you next to nothing about which tool is more productive in the hands of a small team of people who know what they're doing.

That's the point. In business you don't say "no" you 'f#ck off' price instead. 20x is a f#ck off price. It's because they don't want 3rd clients to proliferate because of the business issues it creates BUT at 20x, if they agreed, it would benefit the balance sheet enough for the issue to go away.
Your comments disappeared because the sub went private. Reddit won't show any comments from private subs you aren't allowed to view, even comments that you made.
Wines (generally) don't use hops. Hops are such a strange flower (or weed depending on your view of hops) that provide a lot of very complex molecules that break down in interesting ways over time. At their best those molecules are flowery and subtly bitter. At their worst they break down into skunky things, some of which at extreme worsts are poisonous. Grapes have some complex molecules, but not the same sorts of bitter sulfides that hops do.
The problem is that reddit's entire system depends on unpaid labor from volunteer moderators. And they just pissed a lot of those moderators off.

Yeah, reddit can reopen those subreddits if they want to and kick the mods. But who are they going to get to moderate it? They can't afford to hire staff to moderate themselves, reddit is already unprofitable. Are they going to do an application process for scab mods? That will be an extremely unpopular fiasco.

The end result is either reddit capitulating, or becoming an absolute shell of its former self. Most likely they will compromise, charging third party apps for API access but an amount that is feasible. That is capitulation, because the entire point was to kill the third party apps entirely. There's a reason that all their compromises so far revolve around still supporting the third party moderation and accessibility tools. They want the moderators, they need the moderators, they very much want to be done with third party clients.
But banks keep using the
leverage of gigantic – but not fully admitted/accounted-for – de facto government subsidies to make destructively-reckless bets out of proportion to the nominal "bank owners" capital-at-risk.

So even if "the bank fails", there's been destructive speculative misallocation whose social costs can be far larger the nominal owners' losses.

Of course, the government also doesn't let the "systemically important banks" fail - so related politically-mobbed up interests don't even get "wiped out".
> Don't forget the infuriating situation where infra designers/whomever decide "we can't put a sidewalk here", or governments allow construction to close a sidewalk for years on end.

My favorite instance of this happened when the town decided to improve the dodgy sidewalk that followed a busy road. The sidewalk was in rough shape, and while it was walkable, it would have been impossible for anyone with a mobility impairment.

Improving the sidewalk meant that it was closed for almost 8 months. During that time, I had to walk at the edge of the vehicle travel lane. As winter approached, they finally finished construction and I enjoyed the beautiful condition of the new sidewalk...for about two months. After the first snow storm, it became impassible and, for reasons I never found out, the town never plowed it again. So, I had the option to travel back in traffic, or trudge through the snow. The situation ended up being a factor in me giving up and buying a car.
I think that’s a good point but the idea your (male) partner has to make more seems silly.

The core idea of finding a partner that is strictly better is the concern the article raises. If she makes 300k a year and he makes 150k a year, the studies suggest women would refuse to take that.

But if we suppose they get together, even with the haircut in wages from taking time for childcare, they will still have a great standard of living.

I suspect they're already moderating more subs than they lead on publicly. I see no way the big subs that have remained open aren't being moderated by someone on Reddit's payroll.

That means they'll let these subs go dark, claim they're unmoderated (even though they could take over them right now), and expand their internal moderation team.
I don’t really think of any number, because that would be silly. None of us know the answer nor can we confidently estimate what it is. Therefore any attempt to justify or argue costs by us is useless.
This doesn't match my experience at all. In my experience, in most adult heterosexual long-term relationships it's usually the female partner who is insisting on long-term planning, financial planning, avoiding frivolous purchases, etc. and are happy if men don't start conflicts over this. Your exaggerated example basically screams "husband material".

I don't think the claim is about new or future loans. The suggestion is that they're raising money via equity, not via new loans. They'd just be defaulting on their old loans.

But I agree that the story as a whole made very little sense.
Real estate, especially prime commercial real estate was a sure bet for a while. If a company can’t service the debt the bank gets a valuable asset. It might be not so valuable with work from home taking hold.

I still doubt the whole scenario. I hope some emergency regulations to turn empty commercial real estate into housing is passed, I know it’s not ideal, but it’s not impossible.
No, I totally understand, I'm not trying to say the modern world was entirely invented by the Dutch, most successful companies have bought at least some of the tech they now use. I just think that 99% of the world has no idea that ASML exists, and yet it's so incredibly crucial.

I included that bit about them being Dutch because, one of my best friends works for ASML on the east coast, and apparently ASML finds that news quote funny enough that they have some shirts and swag with that quote on it.
Lobbying/Bribery seems more egregious than investing.

At least investing has some economic forces that cause people to conserve resources and allocate them better than prior.

Lobbying/Bribery is just pure corruption. The medical industry is so extravagant because they are among the top lobbyists of all time. Only the entirety of real estate or all US businesses(chamber of commerce) can even compete with merely the American Medical Association or AHA. Heck, combining all of medical and the lobbying is worse than every other industry including all US businesses

Sure - Greyscale is a Cryptocurrency holdings company. They have tried several times to make a Bitcoin ETF, but keep getting strong armed by the SEC to the point that Greyscale had to sue them for reasons why they were not allowed to register the bitcoin ETF. The SEC isn't even letting crypto companies register their crypto ETF's.

There is mountains upon mountains of evidence that show that the SEC is biased towards crypto and that killing it will be done by way of confusion and corruption through dumb lawsuits.

>a sizable number of them are due to the limits of human visual spectrum input

But how do you know that? You don't really. The lion's share could well be from just not being consistently careful in the right ways, or reckless high speed driving, or the tyranny of human reaction times.

I do agree that at this stage, it's worth trying to pile on all of the sensors possible to see whether that gets you more reliable odometry / mapping. But you are getting super fixated on the specific problem of knowing what the shape of things around you is, and what people are trying to get across to you is that the problem is way, way harder than that. Just knowing where stuff is is like 10% of the problem. You also have to know what that stuff is and how it semantically relates to your driving problem. You have to be able to make predictions about how the world is going to play out, and what constitutes a safe action. And that's not even the hardest part - you also have to figure out how to glide through the world and not drive like a grandma, even though there is some inherent unsafety in building up a head of steam in a 2 ton piece of metal when a child could dive in front of you at any time. In other words, you have to be able to push the limits of UNsafe actions so that you're not completely obnoxious to be around on the road. All of this is going to require a many-levels-up understanding of the world around the car, and that understanding is going to do a ton of heavy lifting in terms of interpreting things that haven't been directly sensed. As soon as you get an occlusion, you have already left the realm of sensing and entered into the higher level realm of reasoning about the world's state based on priors. It might be that the other sensing modalities will help you be better than a human, but by far the more important unsolved problem is getting human-ish to begin with, and we are still very far from that.

The other thing you're brushing past is that high-level reasoning does not have an infinite bandwidth of attention. As you ingest more and more sensors, your sensor fusion problem becomes much more expensive. For a reasonable amount of compute hardware, and with the constraints of latency, you don't have infinite latitude to reason over ever-wider sensor streams. So at a certain point you're going to encounter a squaring effect with having to add both sensors and the compute to handle it, with additional considerations once that data gets so wide that "normal" ways of handling it stop working and you have to get exotic. For a given compute substrate, it is not a given that the best way to use it is to slurp a massively wide sensor suite into it. Your cycles could be better spent doing deeper reasoning over the data you've got. If you need an evolutionary analogy, you can ask yourself why two eyes seems to be plenty for the majority of animals? The brainpower is spent on building a complicated internal state of the world, and it can only focus on so much at a time anyway. Bio-inspired robotics is a thing for a reason - we learn a lot of subtle lessons from nature that are not intuitively obvious. This could easily be one of them.
