You must of missed the part where I was specifically talking about sexual violence.

I know that civilian causalities are high for both sides.

The difference as I said before is that Russia and uses much more sexual violence and torture.

Russia rate of sexual violence and torture is off the charts.

You had to go back decades just to find a single case of something close to comparable in the US army.

> You might not be aware of it, but I've seen people genuinely argue that Russia has been exceedingly careful in trying to only strike military targets, and that's why the "civilian casualties rate is so low, compared to other conflicts".

Russia specifically targets civilian targets, when a PGM levels a shopping mall or a cafe it’s not an accident.

The truth is exactly the opposite of what you’re claiming.

> (it could even be as high as, or slightly worse than in Iraq).

It’s likely much worse than Iraq with Russia the cruelty is the point.
Slower and less stable compared to what? When? Where? There is no "the internet" to measure latency or stability on. I haven't noticed anything today, but maybe if I lived in Beijing getting roasted by heat, or in Hanoi with electricity going on and off, or in Oklahoma with high winds and tornados I might have a different experience.

Most GPUs have their drivers already built in - unlike on Windows. If you need proprietary Nvidia drivers, on most distros you just need to open the software center, search "nvidia" and click install.

Honestly in this regard, Windows struggles to be a drop in replacement for Linux, not the other way around.

It's hard not to feel helpless when it comes to dominant sites (monopolies), like Reddit or YouTube. There doesn't seem to be any real alternatives.

I'd encourage people not to give up hope. You don't have to give up using Reddit and YouTube, but instead you should find other sites that match your values and give them preferential treatment.

I signed up for a Lemmy instance. I took 10 minutes and logged into it on all my devices and removed all the quick links to Reddit. During my 10 minutes of discipline I made it as easy as possible to use alternatives during my times of low-discipline. I did whatever I could to redirect my "I'm bored, I'm going to click on something for entertainment" energy towards Lemmy instead of Reddit.

Basically, just make sure you put alternatives first on your list and Reddit and YouTube come last. I wont visit Reddit for entertainment unless I've first read through a bunch of posts on Lemmy. If a specific search directs me to Reddit, so be it, but I wont post there for fun; not unless I have to, not unless I've tried the alternatives first.

Yes, I guess the problem is that laziness shouldn't stop at service boundaries.
It’s because of this:

> One early upload of more than 270,000 links appeared on GitHub and then took on a life of its own as contributors added to the database and created their own forks.

> A subsequent readme file suggests that the archive later contained over six million magnet links, possibly one of the largest collections ever seen.

Github has users and it’s trivial to contribute.

I don’t see why you wouldn’t host/mirror on GitHub even in light of this event since you can mine free contributions no matter where else you host it.

At the moment any coder can claim to be a software engineer.

Certification is needed so we can draw a distinction between those who can code, and those can can engineer software solutions, as well as holding them to a higher standard.
Antibody Treatment Prevents Graft versus Host Disease in Preclinical Tests
Closed off societies don't need sophisticated propaganda because the competition is blocked off.

One of the things that struck me about propaganda in North Korea was that it was incredibly unsophisticated. It was like watching 1950s adverts.

Glasnost produced an opening for the most sophisticated western tactics to be applied in the Soviet Union and it was used to maximal effect.

Russia has recognized the shortcomings and has adapted. Their propaganda is pretty much every bit as sophisticated as ours these days. Enough to cause Congress to have conniptions.

Congrats on the post. Very inspiring.

I've been going through this journey myself. I started learning on Tradingview, then bought Build Alpha to discover how to test strategies. I chose Portfolio 123 for my automated factor trading but had been working towards creating a program/basket trading system like yours that can act on intraday data.

I moved to long-term investment until I could build a simulator capable of verifying the correctness of my investment strategies using fuzzy testing ideas stolen from TiggerBettle.

I have almost two years of polygon quotes and trades for the whole market captured with a monotonic timestamp to be able to replay the data –and test the handling of polygon socket glitches.

I'm focusing initially on capturing the data in a way that allows fast replay and aggregation, similar to what Kafka can do with topics but in-process using zig and custom memory-mapped data structures. My idea is to be able to generate signals like VIX (once I add options data), ETFs, and indexes and hopefully be faster at doing so than others :), please HN folks, call me out here if I'm being too naive.

This has been a three-year learning process for me. I have been a retail investor for +10 years, but over the last three years, I've gone deep into learning algo-trading, drank del Prado Kool-aid, and read numerous trading and investment books.

I'm now focusing on my technical chops to build the engine to build order books for individual stocks, baskets, and indexes with realistic market prices. I aim to develop a system that can get as close to the market price in the next dollar bar as possible.

This has been a very lonely journey, and after reading the responses to this post, I'd love to connect with others on a similar path. Sending you an email!

I try to use freeCAD whenever possible. I'm not a professional level, and assemblies are a bit scary, but its overall a nice tool.

Just the other day I cloned one of these[1] in freecad using the image importing and scaling, quickly made a trace, added a pad and some chamfers, and had it on the 3d printer in about 25 minutes.

I'd love if FreeCAD got a benefactor like you mention.

However, it is "exactly" that code, isnt it.. thats been my understanding.
The original quote mentions a fence or gate built across a road. Also Chesterton is writing from an English perspective which includes familiarity with manmade landscapes built up over thousands of years where the intentions of the original builders are lost to history. He probably had a dry stone wall in mind which are often used to fence in parcels of land. In any case, I’ll let him defend his position himself, his wit is as sharp as ever:

“In the matter of reforming things, as distinct from deforming them, there is one plain and simple principle; a principle which will probably be called a paradox. There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, "I don't see the use of this; let us clear it away." To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: "If you don't see the use of it, I certainly won't let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it."

This paradox rests on the most elementary common sense. The gate or fence did not grow there. It was not set up by somnambulists who built it in their sleep. It is highly improbable that it was put there by escaped lunatics who were for some reason loose in the street. Some person had some reason for thinking it would be a good thing for somebody. And until we know what the reason was, we really cannot judge whether the reason was reasonable. It is extremely probable that we have overlooked some whole aspect of the question, if something set up by human beings like ourselves seems to be entirely meaningless and mysterious. There are reformers who get over this difficulty by assuming that all their fathers were fools; but if that be so, we can only say that folly appears to be a hereditary disease. But the truth is that nobody has any business to destroy a social institution until he has really seen it as an historical institution. If he knows how it arose, and what purposes it was supposed to serve, he may really be able to say that they were bad purposes, that they have since become bad purposes, or that they are purposes which are no longer served. But if he simply stares at the thing as a senseless monstrosity that has somehow sprung up in his path, it is he and not the traditionalist who is suffering from an illusion.”
That's also because he's just violently unconventional with chromaticism. There's places in late Beethoven where Urtext editors aren't sure what a specific note/accidental was intended to be: they show possibilities option A and option B (from two sources – one of which was a misprint), and even having both, the editors are undecided which one was actually the mistake. And if you study the music very carefully and think for a long time, you won't be sure either.
Happened to me with ManyCam.
The follow up is definitely worth reading. In particular, the section where the author notes, "Everything started to flow much more nicely when I went down the road of comical inefficiency." Computers are fast enough today that much of this inefficiency is borderline invisible to the vast majority of us. Always fun to read from perspectives that this is not a true statement.

> You need to be good but not too good you’re a threat.

For what it is worth; based on what I've seen in interviews. Programmers can only rank people who are close to their own level. If someone like Terry Davis of TempleOS fame shows up for an interview, should the interview declare them as a madman? a genius? both? If we need to build an OS, are his design choice eccentricities sly moves of genius or evidence of a diseased mind?

It isn't as much that strong programmers are a threat (that might be a factor) but more that big gaps in though lead to both productivity and inscrutability. And people avoid things they don't understand.

HN is very tech startup focused, so I think people here view Lemmy through that lens.

This is the first time I’ve seen an article done as a poorly drawn comic strip.

Basically:

1. Jewelers at a trade show undervalued their wares to reduce shipping costs.

2. Items were stolen in transit.

3. Security company doing the transit is willing to pay the amount that was declared by the jewelers.

4. Jewelers want closer to fair market value even though they disclosed a number 10x less.

5. Article was done as a graphic novel and would have taken 5 seconds to read instead of 5 minutes of scrolling.
In all the, admittedly amateur, games I’ve made I’ve been very religious about this. It never even occurred to me that not splitting this was an option.

As author of the comment in question, yes, this.

Much of what Smith argues about is power, beginning with among the shortest, pithiest, and clearest sentences in the entire book:

"Wealth, as Mr Hobbes says, is power."

Then there is his very long diatribe against joint stock (privately-held, shareholder-based) corporations, which Smith argues should be limited largely to the financial sector (banks and insurance). Itself an interesting distinction and one that's had me think about those areas of economic activity, and why the so-called "FIRE" sector (finance, insurance, and real estate) are linked together.

One interpretation I've arrived at is that all concern the evaluation of future value over a given portfolio: of loans, of insurance policies, and of mortgages (themselves a class of loans). These all ... have some peculiar and similar behavioural characteristics, risks, and moral and morale hazards associated with them. They also tend toward monopolistic in both scale and practices. Among the notable exceptions to anti-trust regulations against conspiring on prices is the exception for insurance underwriting boards, comprised of multiple companies, who share risk, cost, and pricing data to set premiums.

I have had a great amount of success taking classes at a maker space near me. It's maybe not "personal" in the sense of 1 on 1 100% of the class, but the classes are small and I usually get a ton out of them.

If you have a maker space nearby, they are a fantastic resource for learning. Some places even offer classes for non-members, which may be worth considering if you're not sure if you want to use the space for things besides classes.

This exact point is covered in the series of posts, though? With some thoughts on why this is difficult.

I confess that sometimes things do, in fact, get a ton easier if you expand your abstraction out such that you are abstracting the whole board, and not a bunch of individual pieces. That comes with its own set of road blocks, though. In particular, game worlds are a lot bigger now than they used to be.
IMO (i.e, not an expert, only fiddled around with IC design at .18 micron in undergrad), no fast/cheap try-observe cycle.

Software for web? I (often) can see the finished product as I'm typing the characters in my IDE. Even for PCB design? The output can be acquired and tested under a week with low cost.

IC fab? Not cheap and not fast. All built on machines and processes that discourage experimentation on running lines, since even the slightest mistake can scrap weeks or months of work. Work that involves high pressure, high energy toxic gasses, and lots of them. Also some non-toxic elements/chemicals. Capital costs are extremely high (IMO, this is also part of why working with HW doesn't pay as much - capital costs are high, allowing employers to have serious leverage).

IMO, that is similar to: why the James Webb space telescope cost so much, and why many Mars rovers cost so much. They have to get it right, at almost any cost, because it costs so much to deploy them. Unless a fundamental change in costs (w.r.t. Earth --> Deep Space) occurs, the cost of failure will remain high and so will the costs of development.
