What do stock markets produce?

The way resources are allocated is very important, but getting it optimal is very hard. Stock market is one of structures which helps to create long-term incentives to optimize resource allocation.

You can directly see how it works if you compare market-based economies to e.g. a planned economy Soviet Union: a lot of goods produced by Soviet industry were not in demand, especially consumer goods. When Soviet Union was no more a lot of factories were closed because they were producing some utterly irrelevant shit.

> Is any of this liquidity going to actual (replication) research, because if it is not, again: what are these markets tangibly producing?

Many economic concepts work in practice only at scale. E.g. if there's a one-off $1000 incentive, it might not attract people capable of doing that. But if there's an opportunity to make $1000 every second, people might put an effort into taking that opportunity.

Prediction markets create incentives to do particular stuff, as all markets do.

If there was enough money at stake, it could definitely incentivize replication research.

There are two scenarios.

Scenario 1: Suppose you have a lab with all necessary equipment and materials. Normally you would use it for your own research (i.e. research new materials). But if there's e.g. $100M prediction market on replication of a particular result, you might consider redirecting it to replicating that research instead.

If you do it before others, you can sell your replication proof to a hedge fund which will then get a position on prediction market before revealing the proof.

Scenario 2: If there's enough money in replication markets, hedge funds might specifically fund laboratories which replicate stuff.

That's everything. Nuclear deaths were socially significant because they were novel. "Hey everyone, here is a new way to die." And everyone paid attention.

Another example: Covid. It's a coronavirus. Know what else is a coronavirus? The common cold. But because Covid was novel, "hey everyone, here is a new way to die." And everyone paid attention.
It’s a case by case basis. You can’t set a rule and say that every time an established leader eats a cost that it’s right or wrong.

In this case, AWS has had plenty of competition via other cloud services like Azure and Google Cloud as well as other hosting options. The fact that they ate this cost was immaterial and I don’t see any issue with it.

Even with all the competition, the alternatives still kind of pale in comparison so it’s definitely not a competition problem.
This is why you always have a backup Voyager
Making a fridge last 100 years seems like an R&D activity though. They can sell it as a subscription too.
To use a very imprecise comparison, the fridge that my parents purchased way back when, cost them three months of savings, while the fridge that I purchased would cost half a month's savings for a similar job.
What is the source of those numbers? Those don't match my reality at all or what I've observed when I've provided Apple Pay and Google Pay (normally it's 70% Apple, 30% Google).
A lot of times I’ve also found it to be cheaper. So that has left me wondering if these web agencies are just selling the same rooms for a small premium on top of the actual price.

The other arbitrage opportunities include breakfast and other facilities. Either way check direct before ever choosing another option like Airbnb.
The day they started forcing users to use VPCs on new EC2 instances it was pretty clear to me they’d really screwed up.

That was the point when they should have gone pure v6 for everyone except enterprise customers. And if you wanted to expose services over v4, they should have made you pay for a load balancer. That would have made it pretty easy to pass through the real cost, and would have gotten devs used to using v6 for management and internal connectivity.

I saw a comment saying ISPs should drop v4. I consult for one and they absolutely cannot. Too many customers still rely on stuff that doesn’t support v6. It’s become a major headache. Not only are they expensive, but you also have to be careful not to buy blocks that are on legacy blacklists.
It may be. I setup my server half a decade ago and don't remember exactly how I configured it initially. I may have enabled it not realizing the implications.
The US has seemed to "hit the gas" [0] with large expenditures to support hydrogen use as a fuel.

In November 2021, Congress passed, and President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. signed into law the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Public Law 117-58), also
known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL). This historic, once-in-a-generation legislation authorizes and appropriates $62 billion for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), including $9.5 billion for clean hydrogen. [1]

the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law included $1.5 billion to support hydrogen electrolysis and $8 billion to fund a broad Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs program. [1]

I agree with where you're coming from with the approach of users needing to kick shitty anti-user services to the curb. But I'd say why not both? It doesn't need to be an either-or.

Legislation sets normative behavior, even if it is not enforced fully or companies find loopholes. It is simply not right for a free society to have surveillance databases that would make the most staunch Stasi agent blush, and we should work towards the goal of ending them by every avenue possible.

Also how do you propose to kick say Equifax to the curb through individual action? There are many services that don't exist via user consent or interaction, but rather just by purported assent through contracts of adhesion from some de facto mandatory industry.
I doubt it. It used to be some of the best and experienced pilots before you can land Kai Tak. And that was 26 years ago. If they were 30s then they would be close to 60s now. Not to mention stupid Cathay forced early retirement for a lot of their pilots during COVID.

But yeah, Kai Tok was fun.
There was some initiative years back that so many world problems would be solved by giving everyone access to a fridge.

But does that still work out if it's a crappy fridge that fails every few years?
It seems to be too thinly traded to read much into it? From what I can see a $100 bet would make the implied probability of detonation 93%.
Voyager has a star sensor that is meant to align with the Sun and Canopus (IIRC). If both are properly aligned it means it's pointed in the right direction. At its current distance the beam width is wide enough to cover all of Earth's orbit. So really it just needs to point at the Sun anymore.

The carrier signal from Earth is also powerful on a particular frequency and polarization. While there's definitely noise at the receiver it's looking for a very specific signal so can filter out everything it's not expecting. We do the same thing on the Earth side, filtering out noise to recover the very weak signal received from Voyager.
Booking a hotel room isn't what I thought AirBnB was for. In fact I'm astonished that any hotel chain uses AirBnB as a sales outlet.
Perhaps https://www.macstadium.com or just Google "macOs build service".
Never tried them, though.
So many AI startups are really just paper-thin layers over publicly-available models like GPT. There's value there, but probably not enough to support $100M+ valuations.

We've barely scratched the surface of what generative AI can do from a product perspective, but there's a mad dash to build "chatbots for $x vertical" and investors should be a little skeptical.
I get what you mean. For the record, here's a GCP engineer holding forth on price/performance ratios who also concludes that T2D is optimal. https://medium.com/google-cloud/google-cloud-platform-cpu-pe...

ETA: Since you are using Go and targeting a specific modern CPU, you may also get a measurable benefit from setting GOAMD64=v3, so the go compiler generates code using AVX2, BMI2, LZCNT, etc.
It's just amazes me that so many people are in a lather over the "dangers" of AI, when the dangers of biotech are literally several orders of magnitude greater. Bill Joy was right - biotech is by far the most dangerous technology ever developed, and the greatest threat to human survival.

(The dangers of AI running amok are pretty near zero, since almost everything in the world is NOT controllable by networked computers, even today - and there's an easy fix, even if an AI did turn evil and start distributing itself: Just go Glactica on it by going back to dumb/dis/loosely connected systems. It's really almost always a better architecture, anyway, from every point of view but subscription revenue...)
I was in college (and a physics major!) when cold fusion hit. Really similar vibe -- competing press conferences and publications, huge public excitement tempered by frowning disbelief from experts, a rush to replicate from many labs, with only occasional claims of success, all of which turned out to be errors. Still, I'm rooting for you, LK-99.
I have never at any point encountered "super right wing" people on any main Matrix server. I've seen a lot of the opposite, to the point where it seemed administration was unfairly strict on people they considered part of them, while letting the other side run rampant. I somehow doubt this.

The only time I've encountered anything of this description is when I was looking into why a server had been defederated, and then found out it was mostly neo nazis and weirdos obsessed with anime children. I had to actively seek them out to discover this.
If you search for "godaddy" on HN and sort by date, the majority of the posts have a negative sentiment towards godaddy. But they seem chunked. Two in the last week, three from three months ago, ten from seven months ago. My sense is that if you averaged them out, it looks like there are about two per month.

And sure, one every two months isn't the same as one per week, but it's not so far off as to enter hyperbole territory, I think.
> one of which was almost successful

Yes, that's what I mean: there's only one near-attack, and since then we've banned all liquids for all flights at a cost of god knows how many benefits.

> The rationale for banning larger quantities of liquid are rational

There's zero cost-benefit analysis for this.
In the description, they say they charge extra fees:

*******

▶ Mandatory fees

You’ll be asked to pay the following charges at check-in or check-out:

• A damage deposit of $350 will be collected by credit card. You should be reimbursed within 7 days of check-out. Your deposit will be refunded in full by credit card, subject to an inspection of the property.

• A resort fee of $40.16 per night

• There will be taxes and fees that need to be paid at the front desk

▶ Optional Extra

• This property allows pets however there is a $350 pet deposit per stay. 50 USD is kept for a deep cleaning fee, and the remainder is refunded if there is no pet damage.

• Parking $78 for 24 hrs and $93 for oversized. no in and out
They were old. They failed. That’s what happens.

One the compressor died & would have cost about 5 times the value of the fridge to replace. One a coolant line cracked (guessing just age). One the seals on the doors failed. One actually started HEATING things… that was ODD. One just… stopped, no idea what was wrong but nothing obvious.

Old stuff breaks.
Vintage never dies – A time-capsule of kool
> Why not?

There are likely several reasons for why and not. One for why not might be that it could be seen as legitimising a competitor, one which various interests from within & without the industry are actively lobbying against.

Another at a more local level could be that AirBnB is garnering negative press in many areas due to further marginalising local residents¹ and some companies might not want to associate with that if it goes against an image they try to portray.

--

[1] or potential local residents who are more priced out of an area by AirBnB² on top of more traditional holiday lets and second homes.

[2] I'm thinking twice about using the service after seeing a recent increase in AirBnB & similar activity locally (often standing idle a significant amount of the time) while friends are struggling to find affordable places to rent or buy.
Exactly this. As more ISPs go through this process, service providers are incentivised to provide v6 services or get poor service. As things continue in that pattern, v6 becomes dominant and v4 becomes the afterthought to be neglected on the sideline (like v6 is currently for many ISPs with lots of v4 resources)
I've used Airbnb probably 50 times. I've never been charged extra fees that aren't in the checkout process.
It is a Linkedin for Bitwarden.
A lot of it is UX and molding things to specific domains and use cases.

Just like forms over SQL, there seems to be a never ending demand.
It may have been a poor choice of words intended to suggest she was "relinquishing privileges".

It's good operational and operational-security practice to ensure people don't have access to things they don't need when they no longer need them.

When I put a request in to access production to debug something, I immediately relinquish that access by way of removing my privileges, or asking operations to do so, as soon as I'm done with the task at hand.
Most super budget airlines do this but it's because they let you pare down by paying for random things.

But even the non-budget ones like Delta save the taxes and 9/11 Fees for the end.

Southwest is the only one that shows you the actual price.
That's a very different thing. End-to-end encryption stops Apple from reading messages on its own initiative, but if you discover that someone with a particular phone number is sending defamatory iMessages, Apple can still tell you who that person is. (Even the idea of a phone number being anonymous sounds kinda silly, even though it's no structurally different than a Facebook user ID.)
It's enabled for a certain period of time (usually a few hours) and I can do transactions during that time period.

So far I have managed but it is not worth looking for. Keep your mind free and pure.
Yes, the "resort fee" is the most bullshit of them all.

Any additional "fees" should be optional. I should be able to say "I'm not using the resort, I'm not paying this".

If it's mandatory it should be priced in.
I completely agree with maxehmookau here. Ofcom is not the problem. Ofcom does a lot of good in the UK.
I would have given up in at least five different places attempting this project. Congratulations.
I think people are taking exactly the wrong things from this.

In demonstration, this fridge full of drawers and runners looks great. In practice, as soon as those metal slides, bearings, runners, etc get cold, normal household air will condense on them. They get wet, they rust, they're suddenly the worst and need replacing. Bearing runners in fridges are just the absolute worst idea.

In the opposite vector, this is why older laundry machines were great: they were simple, powerful machines that never failed because they were just a motor and a rubber band.
Multi-region redundancy? Still not at the “edge” because I’m using your NY instance from Atlanta.
I’ve had that kill HVAC for sure (capacitors get fried if you have power issues).
I stopped booking hotels years ago after this happened:

I booked on a website advertising a room weeks in advance for $130 a night (only one night).

Arrived at the hotel, and sure enough, I had a reservation - that was not paid for. The company I booked through was charging $130 for them to call the hotel and put my name down on the books.

At that point, I checked out and moved to the mountains.
I continue to use YouTube, which is less dynamic (meaning, you can end up on an actually or nearly deterministic playlist starting at a given song, rather than on "random" songs), but really surfaces some incredible stuff. It does take more work to break out of a mold sometimes, but I tend to find more interesting things when I do. Plus every song is on there.

I also began using Tidal and I'm unsure if that's going to be a long-term thing for me. It's good so far but I find I'm not using it as much; I think it will take effort to get my library into its algorithm before it becomes really useful.

One problem with Spotify is it has a very poor memory. It would only focus on things I had recently listened to and almost never accounted for my full library of "liked" songs/albums when giving suggestions (so something like Pink Floyd, despite having many liked songs, would absolutely never appear on a generated playlist). I remember Pandora was even worse at this; I don't know why. Anyway it's too soon yet to tell if Tidal will do the same, but I don't have high hopes. Even YT tends to do this. It's extremely frustrating.
Sorry, my bad. Point still stands though, services don't necessarily need to be profitable because they're there for a different reason.
Wow. That's mega impressive to be able to act as sighted while apparently being partially blind. I now have even more respect for her.
This blog seems to be written by AI. It repeats itself several times content-wise in an unknowing fashion.
Other hotels having dark patterns does not make them not a dark pattern.

For clients, IMHO, SLAAC is fine and means I don't have to maintain and run a DHCP service anymore. One less thing that can fail, while SLAAC only fails me if the routers IPv6 link inside the given network goes down.

Servers on the other hand, I will provision with a static IP subnet on deploy, as part of the PXE install or configuration management process, depending on the environment. They will have an ephemeral address during the install, but then query for and persist their allotted address before rebooting into the installed environment as part of their post-install.

I guess we agree that we need a single source of truth, what physical device has what IP (range) in their possession at any time. DNS is a classic way to do that, but there are other solutions, from ITIL-style CMDBs to simple config management git repos. And of course the latter doesn't mean that we don't also update DNS based on IP-assignement, DHCP is not the only tool that can be made to interface with a DNS service.
Did they buy them new?
Ask HN: Do you ETL Excel files/pdfs
What's the best way to do it?
Stay at cheaper hotels, they don't have the stupid sensors in the minibar and use real human eyes to check.
Sounds like a bubble thing. Sure x86 may go (as will arm one day), but there is a very solid, healthy and huge Laptop market outside than Apple.
> If your edge data model is ... more complicated than [a read-dominated workload] you're probably doing it wrong

Huh?

There are a huge number of applications that require writes at the edge.

This access pattern in no way indicates that the application is "doing it wrong".
Ask HN: Is DNO Legit?
While looking around on deno docs, I came across some examples using https://nest.land and while looking around there, I came across

https://nest.land/pst

Apparently it is a DNO token used to reward package maintainers depending on number of imports and other factors.

Is deno officially using or approving this or is this an external concept from third-party?

P.S. I know it is included in official documentation, but then again, it could be just random maintainer injecting it.

In addition to the points made by sibling comments, there is always a chance something going wrong in the reorientation, so you do not want to do this more than necessary
Possibly, but also unhelpful and irrelevant.
I've been using Rewind for a while and find quite a bit of value for it. Because it uses GPT-4 for Ask Rewind it's not local-only for that feature, but I find myself just using the local search most of the time and it works fairly well (and have it firewalled off, so I know they're at least not lying about the data staying local except for updates, analytics [if you opt in], and Ask Rewind usage).
Personal experience and the experience of the developers that I've met.
Then we'd need someone to maintain the AI.
> I can’t give a blanket statement for the US, but in the cities I’ve lived in, cyclists of all powertrain types are supposed to be on the street and not the sidewalk.

Yes, and once you realize that 99.9% of the US lacks any kind of safety infrastructure for bikes, you begin to understand how utterly insane and hostile it is to anything but cars.

Putting 15mph bikes next to 45mph 2-ton cars and then slapping a sign like "bikes may use full lane" is a giant middle finger to current and future bike users.
Yeah, perhaps. One I remember from last year is the cryptography and numpy package, for instance. Now they do seem to ship with binary wheels, at least for my current Python and Linux version.

Kerberos and Hadoop stuff obviously still doesn't, though. I guess the joke's on me for being stuck in this stack...

"You only need a tablet" (and remote infrastructure for actually writing your code on since a tablet won't work for 99% of assignments)

I did the same thing in college, but with a Chromebook. I rented a VPS from Vultr and ssh'd in to write C and Java assignments with vim. VPS was $5/mo. Chromebooks can still write javascript code and run via the web browser, and you can actually mount a remote drive on a Chromebook (I think via sshfs?). From there you can use an electron based text editor like Atom (and I guess VSCode would work these days) and just compile and run programs via some SSH commands.

I'll say anybody who wants to do the same thing with C should definitely check out GDB and its TUI mode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PorfLSr3DDI

But I think these days, running a GUI application over a network has become trivial. Back then, I don't remember any providers making it simple to deploy such projects
I would never buy an Apple laptop. I have one for work and I hate it. Linux and Windows are by far more productive for me, so all I need to do is keep getting better PC laptops. While Mac hardware does have a slight edge on cost/benefit at that price point, macOS is just too cumbersome for my needs.

EDIT: It's funny to see this downvoted. I'm literally speaking of my particular use case and needs! Are there people who believe Apples are better in all scenarios?
