> wonder how much studios are ACTUALLY hurt by this strike

Netflix is fine. The others are hurting, but not bleeding, except maybe Discovery. Keep in mind the top-paid actors take in about as much as the top-paid studio heads.
Again, though, you have to find a better reason than TikTok and friends to explain a slump that seems to have started at the same time as the pandemic.

Were there choices made during the pandemic that are hurting them in other ways? Almost certainly. But I'm not seeing how that is true for the claimed competition being what is hurting them, as these things existed pre pandemic, but only started really factoring in after it?

That is why I said "ish." It certainly sounds plausible. I'm not clear the evidence is showing it, though.

On Macs at least, Thunderbolt is extremely dependable. I don’t have as much experience with it on other platforms, but I’ve never personally experienced a problem using external SSDs on my Intel NUC with TB3 support.

I am not an expert in any of the fields involved here, but does anyone know why they make the assumption that this will exceed the capability of modern or future non-bio hardware?

> “…in [the] future may eventually surpass the performance of existing, purely silicon-based hardware…”

Software and silicon has the benefit you don’t have to keep it alive, disease free, and there isn’t actual matter you need to scrape off some copper contact should something die.

and would you even get gains in training speed, for example? How often are brain cells rearranging synapses/communicating when that requires physical matter be moved around? (Ions move over synapses? I’m no brain scientician) Feels like the ephemeral nature of the current software and silicon set up is a pretty good local minimum. I don’t know if somehow adding more matter and nature goo to it moves anywhere closer to the next minimum.

They just say it’s better like that’s self evident? Anyone know why?

There are absolutely emulator mods that swap out the image assets in the game for any controller you would like, including the steam deck, steam controller, Xbox controller, and PlayStation controller. If you are feeling lazy, head to your preferred non-google search engine and type in “Tears of the Kingdom Mod Manager” and you will find helpful software that enables one-click installation of many mods.

I don’t understand how you could fault the game developer for not supporting this feature, since it is made by a company that sells specific hardware that they guarantee support for.

As far as color issues, I too share color vision deficiencies but everything I have encountered has been carefully designed with shapes in mind so that color is only an enhancement. I STRONGLY believe that this approach to design is much, much, much more accessible than any toggles and filters buried in menus. Could you share with me some examples of where color was key to solving a puzzle or identifying an enemy or item?
>The case can be made that the US took a turn for the worse when the Supreme Court was allowed to go outside its remit of "do the least required" and wrote policy by making Citizens United legalise directly bribing officials.

1. "legalise directly bribing officials" is a gross misrepresentation of Citizens United v. FEC. As per the wikipedia article, the ruling "prohibits the government from restricting independent expenditures for political campaigns by corporations"[1]. In other words, it means the government can't prevent corporations from donating to groups that run political ads. "Bribing" has a specific meaning, which involves quid quo pro, and "corporations being able to spend money on political ads" is nowhere near that.

2. at the risk of starting another flame war, the "turn for the worse" happened decades before with roe v. wade, when they ruled that abortion was under the "right to privacy". Regardless of whether you think women should be allowed the right to abortion, justifying it under the 14th amendment is much more egregious than the supreme court ruling that the government can't restrict the speech of groups of people (ie. corporations).

I don't think this is true in practice. You don't just produce timestamp_ns in a busy loop. There is also the cpu, memory or io operation that generated or copied the data bound to the timestamp. And that isn't sub-ns.

My wife works in special ed and it's pretty straightforward for me to imagine how this could be beneficial. Briefly, there's a lot of time, effort, resources and people involved in treating this. The money is certainly there, being spent all the time - by parents, schools, etc. Not just in treating, but also testing (which seems computer friendly). So the question would be tapping into that, and making it useful. Of course I don't know the details of this particular story, but in a general sense, it's easy to understand why you might build such a business.

Well some conditions you can’t get unless you have the genes regardless of what your environment is (thinking Down Syndrome is an example here), and others you will get essentially regardless of what your environment is if you have the genes (thinking the BRCA genes for breast cancer). In this case, everyone experiences some degree of trauma, and the mix of your trauma experience and your genetic predisposition combine to yield ADHD, or not.

Sure, they could fail. Turns out running a business is hard, and carving out a niche against behemoths in the brewing industry can't be easy.

But novelty, especially if there's free marketing etc, will help to make it a success.

I have always liked the idea of co-op business, but I've also been apprehensive about the viability of genuine co-ops where multiple (competing?) sections have to work together to forge a path forward.

What do we do when we have multiple possible actions on the table, but no concensus? Do we fo nothing?

I think more examples of (hopefully successful) transitions will help in more of this model being (successfully) adopted.

But sure, crash and burn would make for great TV.
>I don't see how anyone could credibly make this claim

>device controlled

A website is limited in what it can do by the browser it runs in.

>unmodifiable

Since responses are generated server side you can not modify what they send you.

>broken on nonaproved hardware

There are existing sites which don't support Linux or don't support mobile devices.

>true neutrality of OS and hardware is incompatible with attestation

Attestation doesn't mean that HTML now renders differently. The User Agent string already allows servers to block OSs.

>There is a zero percent chance that detecting bot traffic for advertisers will not turn into adblocking/automation restrictions over time

Sites can already detect adblocking without attestation. There is no evidence that the precense of an adblocker will be a signal to whether an environment is trustworthy. That is not the purpose of the API.

>given Google's history around adblockers

They have worked to support ad blocker extentions and they have provided a platform to ad blocker extentions. They have banned a malicous adblocker which also committed clickfraud. They have had some anti adblock experiments on YouTube such as limiting the resolution.

>We are far, far past the point where Google deserves the benefit of the doubt on this

I disagree.

>Chromium is already less effective at adblocking than Firefox is today

It works fine for me.

>Manifest V3 is still set to make adblocking worse

No, it won't. You just have to use a different API.

>despite employee claims that these efforts were not intended to harm adblockers

They care about improving the experience of the entire chrome user base. Getting rid of poorly designed APIs is a part of making Chrome better for everyone.

>We're not jumping to conclusions

Yes. You are. Google is trying to make the web more private and secure from the current state the web is in. Look at the reponse to FLOC. Despite increasing user's privacy many people forgot upset because they greedily want the web to cater to only them and not to people who rely on advertising. Similarly with Web DRM people panicked because they didn't want DRM because they only care about themselves and do not care about people who want their content to be protected. There is a theme where people get outraged because they don't understand that there are more people who use the web and have different needs than just them.

Giving people the option to protect their content or the option to use attestation as a signal doesn't prevent some idealized open web from existing. Sites that would like extra security can opt into it.
Protecting a typeface itself would be super annoying. Every document you make, every billboard put up, every word on every sign, menu, signs on every vehicle on the road, would need to have its fonts explicitly licensed for those uses, the way webfonts are today. Complete with rules like “you can use our typeface on a sign, but if the sign is in a town over 10,000 population, we want $100, and if it’s a city over 1 million, we want $10,000. Oh, and all of this is per year.”

Also, good luck even making a free font without being accused of making a “derivative work” of every copyright-encumbered font that’s come before. (“look at those serifs!”)

I know I started the thread by saying I think fonts deserve copyright, and I do, but not the typefaces themselves, as that would drastically disrupt what you can create. It would be especially arbitrary considering most faces are derivative of what came before, stretching back centuries. To paraphrase a famous quote, “You didn’t build that, [Adobe]”

> Carbs create more energy for the body and proteins with fat make more food for the brain,

I'm pretty certain this is not correct. I thought that the brain runs almost completely off carbs, and will only in famine mode use protein.

I read this some years back (I want to say wikipedia, but not quite sure) when trying to lose a few kgs and trying to determine what the dieters meant by "ketosis". IIRC, what I found was that switching to a no-carb-at-all diet would force the brain to use protein as a fuel source.

Somehat off-topic, I also found out that the brain uses approx 20% of the energy consumed in a human body, muscle uses about 20% and the liver uses about 15% (might be slightly off on that last one, maybe that was closer to 20% than to 15%).

I reasoned that doubling the amount of work that a body does can, at most, use up only 20% of any extra calories put into the body.

So I ate 20% less, had no hunger pangs and went from 88kgs to 82kg, in what appeared to be almost all fat reduction. That was 16 years ago and I have not exceeded 82kgs since. I'm now 81kgs and fluctuate between 82kg and 81kg.

Of course exercise has quite beneficial properties unrelated to losing weight, but when one exercises one should have those other properties as a goal, not weight reduction as a goal.

If banks are approving people for 7k mortgages that they cannot afford long term I expect another MBS crisis in the near future. Originators are supposed to do due diligence by law to prevent this exact scenario… now people may be taking these on with the ability to afford payments but the desire to refi so they can spend in other areas which is an entirely different scenario than what you’re suggesting. One requires originator fraud the other is rosy financial planning. There’s the possibility that markets nationwide crater and millions of people go bankrupt to escape underwater mortgages which would do serious economic damage but that’s such an extreme scenario that it’s not worth seriously considering.

I'd rephrase your first as they were easy to keep up when everything was growing. That is, again, I don't see how residuals can be a lasting form of payment for people like this. Note that this is decidedly not saying that I don't think they should be getting them now. Mine is a longer term question.

Also, cards on the table, I'm ultimately a fan of basic income, which can effectively be seen as residuals for everyone. No need to pretend that it is tied to specific work where folks are basically in a lottery to see if they can get their name on the big ticket item that everyone wants.
I have the group of symptoms know as ADHD. I was not diagnosed until I was a 22.5 years old a.k.a (my 5/6 year of undergrad). I grew up in the South Eastern parts of the United States some many moons ago. There was no such thing as "ADHD" or any kind of other disorders back then. The school system didn't screen people for shit. You were either "normal" or "severely mentally deficient" -- even then we might share the same classroom.

I could go on and on about all the Hell I was put through, but all I can say is that the school system ruined my childhood and teenage years. It wasn't just school. It was my parents, my friends' parents (both to a lesser degree), coaches, etc.. I do not harbor any hatred towards anyone because of it. It was no one's fault -- literally no one knew. I was smart enough to get by, so clear there couldn't be anything wrong with me, right?

If I am being honest, all the issues I faced while younger still affects me to this day. As and adult, I still have virtually no confidence in myself. But how could I? I did/still live my life from one failure to the next. I was not unintelligent, but I'm also nothing to write home about. The world works one way; I work another.

I'll never achieve what I am "capable" of in life. But that's okay, I won't be the next FAANG developer, and maybe it's not all it's cracked up to be. We all die in the end anyway. My goal is to just enjoy my life from here on out. Not sure how, but I'm just taking it each day at a time.
Not sure I agree with that, but you also have to consider the interest rate environment we are in, along with the potential for an economic slowdown.

To buy the brewery, they will more than likely be taking on a ton of debt at higher than normal interest rates...this would put them under a lot of pressure from the start...
Arbitrage of relevant information can be a powerful advantage of amateur retail traders, living as they do outside the Wall Street bubble. Participation in the academic world, frequent international travel, and use of several foreign languages all helped me to make decisions that professionals might have overlooked.

Ironically my best investing decision ever came about due to a drinking session in a KTV in Beijing. My assigned Chinese "companion" was flaunting her new iPhone 4, so, curious, I asked her in my rather limited Chinese: "Are these iPhones popular here". She responded, eyes glowing, "是！我们都有！” ["Yep, we all have them"]. Readers can guess the rest of the story.
A lot of Sapporo's acquisitions over the past few decades seem to indicate they prioritize strategic supply chain access over anything else. And that makes sense. It's easier to buy an established brewery with established supply chains and market access in a foreign country and use that as a boardwalk into the market rather than trying to figure it out from scratch. And Sapporo has clearly done well.

But I can't see what they're getting out of owning a brewery in San Francisco in this day and age. Globally, beer consumption is way down. They're already supplying most of their addressable American market with beer they produce in and export from Canada. It makes sense to me that they'd want to cut their losses here.

And as decent as Anchor has been, it's a wildly saturated market out there. Unless SF makes a U-turn recovery in the next year or two I can't really see how this ends well for Anchor.
If it's reliable enough to take over professional work, it can take over executive work as well.
This is all public information. Why hasn't the market reacted?

EDIT: I was convinced what you said (or similar) was true and missed the better part of last year's gain. Going forward I will be very careful when people confidently claim that "things will be much worse". What I learned is that it is always the unpredictable stuff that tanks the market. So I might as well put money into the index and not wait or worry about it.

What have the Democrats done on this either? Neither party represents average Americans. The Democrats have just chosen better wedge issues to pull in the youth vote.

Where's the real wage growth, real improvements in quality of life, prospects for achieving the same things that your core constituency got? I'd love to hear an actual answer to this, but I'll probably get a bunch of downvotes instead.

> Surprisingly, my new friends don’t focus on our failures. They are simply curious about the details of the adventure.

That's too bad.

Here's as an actual core life skill when it comes to failure: you want to stack as many failures into as few attempts as you possibly can. Save yourself the trouble and the time. Even if someone tells you about how they failed, and you listen, you are still at high risk of making the same failures, because you truly don't know any better.

I'm sure there is lots he learned in the four years but this post doesn't really talk about that, so I'm not sure if he quite confronted it yet, nor developed it as a core life skill.
Why? The government will bail them out.

As long as lots of people get crushed simultaneously, the banks will demand to be bailed out, too.

A bunch of Southern California homes are already in this state--the banks are allowing the "owners" to simply pay the tax and interest and still live there. Why? Because if they foreclose on just a few too many houses, the basis value will plunge, the "owners" will walk away, and the bank will be stuck with a house they can't sell which will promptly get vandalized.

Only suckers use cash as long as the government keeps bailing them out.
I resisted joining a big company for most of my career, which in hindsight I now somewhat regret (I thought I would be worked too hard, turns out working at startups and no-name companies is just as bad and typically pays less unless you are lucky). 3 years ago is a the real answer, far into my career (I'm 39). Pretty sure every single person I work closely with has a BA or Masters in computer science. I just have a lot of experience.
He’s crazy, but it reminded me of an old joke with many layers and a kernel of truth to it:

A KGB spy and a CIA agent meet up in a bar for a friendly drink.
"I have to admit, I'm always so impressed by Soviet propaganda. You really know how to get people worked up," the CIA agent says.
"Thank you," the KGB says. "We do our best but truly, it's nothing compared to American propaganda. Your people believe everything your state media tells them."
The CIA agent drops his drink in shock and disgust. "Thank you friend, but you must be confused…. There's no propaganda in America."
