`import jmespath` is a lot like importing jq...

With decentralized applications at least, there are always bugs and people lose their life savings due to poor mechanics or faulty code, and there's no recourse. See rekt.news for an idea of how 'ungameable' these financial products are.

With a federally insured bank, securities, or other regulated financial products there's a watchdog ensuring compliance and regulations, transactions are largely traceable and auditable, and if someone finds a way to game the system there's a legal entity with a massive presence that will come down on you anyway.

There are advantages to both, and centralized finance is certainly 'gameable' in ways also, but I definitely wouldn't say that it's more gameable than decentralized finance.

Why is this on hacker news? I could offer my opinion on it, it's a fairly standard one, it'll piss off a percentage of readers. You could guess it very likely, I can guess all the counterpoints.

I suggest that you file a complaint. It is not very difficult to do, and your case is very strong. Even the 125 page agreement is ridiculous. I find it hard to believe this would be upheld in court. There simply no way that customers are reading the full document before agreeing.

Not to defend the bank, as I don’t know them, but that does sound like it could be a single bad actor.

If they have checks that caught the misrepresentation in your case, it seems unlikely they condone it broadly. Sounds like the agent was either ignorant or foolish to have even tried it.

This neglects that many children absolutely cannot tell their parents these things. It can result in them being tortured(mental and/or physical abuse). It also negates that, the UN convention on the rights of children(which the US is the only country to not sign on to) does state that children have a right to privacy. Children are not parental property and parents are not privy to everything without the childs consent.

This is virtually impossible due to certs. If you want your device to keep its traffic secure with ssl or wss, you have to have valid certs. Thanks to apple, that either means a device with a 1 year expiration date, or an internet connection so you can periodically provide the device with new certs.

Whether it's universally true or not, I personally found an unexpected week with sketchy-to-no internet made a huge difference to my ability to focus.

I realised that my ability to think about things for an extended period of time is derailed by social scrolling. Reading a book (for example) doesn't have the same effect.

So now I'm careful about what I look at online - HN, a mainstream news site, Matt Levine are my only 'entertainment' content.

Initials on clauses; witnesses; notarization; these are all ways to indicate that a contract has been read.

If the contract is so long that initialing every clause/paragraph is a burden, maybe that's a sign that it's too damn long.
Pedantic nitpick, but pink trombone uses articulatory synthesis, which is a distinct technique from formant synthesis.

Articulatory synthesis creates a physical model of the vocal tract (usually by treating it as a tube of varying diameter).

Formant synthesis simulates peaks in the spectral signature (i.e. formants) by directly constructing bandpass filters with the appropriate center frequency and bandwidth.

AOL gave me my love of programming. I learned how to program in Visual Basic because I wanted to write my own "aol prog". I can still remember the "server" in the Warez room listed VB3.0 as the "the software that is used to make progs". Luckily there were people sharing their code so I could study and figure out how to do it myself.

Me and my cousin created a yo momma joke spammer. I was a shit head back then, but it paid off being a nerd. But still, I did not learn about linux and free software until many years later because of AOL's shitty walled garden.

I believe that having a side hobby like wood working makes you a better developer.

A key aspect of physical hobbies is that there is no backspace key.

If you've been working on a piece of wood for an hour, and you muck up and make a cut where it shouldn't be, or split the wood due to hand holding it on the router table instead of clamping to a jig, you're going to experience an unparalleled level of frustration.

After a while, by osmosis, you will develop a "measure twice and cut once" style of working that is more efficient (for wood working anyway).

I believe that attitude trickles into and benefits your coding. Of course you do have a backspace key, so it's not efficient to be measuring everything twice, but somehow that extra level of care pays off on the keyboard as well.

Pay transparency, good for employers, bad for high performers, limited effects for the average worker.

> The public discourse around pay transparency has focused on the direct effect: how workers seek to rectify pay inequities through renegotiation. The question of how wage-setting and employment practices of the firm respond has received less attention. To study these equilibrium outcomes, we test our model of bargaining under incomplete information with an analysis of pay transparency mandates in the context of the U.S. private sector. Our model predicts that transparency reduces the individual bargaining power of workers, leading to lower average wages. A key insight is that employers credibly refuse to pay high wages to any one worker to avoid costly renegotiations with others under transparency. In situations where workers do not have individual bargaining power, such as under a collective bargaining agreement or in markets with posted wages, greater transparency has a muted impact on average wages. We test these predictions by evaluating the adoption of U.S. state legislation protecting the right of workers to inquire about the salaries of their coworkers. Consistent with our prediction, the laws lead wages to decline by approximately 2% overall, but effects are muted when workers have low individual bargaining power. Our model provides a unified framework to analyze a wide range of transparency policies, and reconciles effects of transparency mandates documented in a variety of countries and contexts.

I hate all of these well intentioned ideas, just like I hated when apple forced <1 year certs. All of this is in service to online devices, and completely screws devices intended to operate over lan only. I find security and peace of mind by blocking a devices access to the internet, but these changes mean that every single trinket that talks over the lan needs a whole boatload of suspicious looking internet traffic.

It also makes it so you can't operate devices in offline networks. (this is already a thing due to apple's cert changes)

Added Falcon180 Model to Aih

Welcome to test and give feedbacks.

It also has a VI mode for well edit the question which is super important in LUI(Language User Interface) era, I mean what we think and say would design the "Interface" to software at the using moment, we decided the surface and feature of a "software" directly, not programmer or producer.

This makes me believe simulation theory even more tbh. Quantum mechanics exist to fuse operations, altogether making simulating our universe more computationally inexpensive.
At the ISP level, does it really matter that they can sniff my queries/SNI? They're just as capable of seeing the IP4/6 I'm connecting to and rDNSing that to know the hostname. SNI gets them past the multiple sites on a single IP, but even encrypted Hello might only hide your activities in the vanishingly rare instances where IPs are actually shared. The obvious analogy is sending postal mail to an address without the recipient's name: it's still pretty obvious who you're communicating with.

Maybe I'm just bitter because I've found DoH (and even DoT) to be slow and occasionally unreliable. Even using Cloudflare, which is my fastest DNS, I see my local caches hitting strange resolve errors or in the minimum, durations 4-10x slower than good old UDP.
"Polio is a horrible, horrible disease, and entirely preventable by a simple vaccine, and anti-vaxxers opposing vaccines are some of the most ignorant people on earth."

That video of Paul Alexander upset me terribly as for me polio is rather close to home. I never caught polio but two kids in my primary school class caught the horrid disease, one died and the other ended up with calipers permanently strapped to his legs. Several other kids who were not in my class also caught the disease. Later, after I left school one of my workmates had to get about in calipers and a walking stick. When I was young it was not uncommon to see people in calipers.

After the kids in my class caught polio we had to wait about three years for the Salk vaccine. By then, we were in highschool. On one morning we were all lined up class after class in the forecourt of our assembly hall. We were formed into two lines—one for boys and one for girls. The lines led into the hall and we were vaccinated army-style—quick and no mucking about. Between morning recess and lunchtime the whole school had been vaccinated, about 1,100 or so kids. It's possible but I cannot recall any kid not being vaccinated (if we'd known any such kid then he/she would have been the talk of the school).

I doubt if anyone who went through that polio epidemic would have any time for anti-vaxxers. They were essentially unheard of back then (even then, the tiny few who weren't vaccinated was because of their religious beliefs). Even the terrible tragedy of the badly manufactured batch of vaccine that still had live viruses in it and killed kids only slowed vaccinations down until the public was reassured the batches were OK. We were just so thankful to get the vaccine, everyone knew who Jonas Salk was, he was a true hero.

Unless one actually went though that horrible time one cannot envisage how truly bad it was. We kids were scared enough but our parents were terrified. If anti-vaxxers had had a presence back then as they did during COVID then it's possible they could have been lynched.

Truly horribe newsreel footage of rows and rows of kids in iron lungs horrified people in ways that never happened with COVID, the situation was so grave people wouldn't have tolerated that nonsense as they did during COVID. Tragically, the polio epidemic reached its peak in the early to mid 1950s so now there are few around to remind people how bad epidemics can be. As a society we've very short memories (it's not only epidemics, we're just as forgetful when it comes to wars).

What happened with COVID—anti-vaxxers carrying on and those who refused to wear masks out of sheer bloody mindedness, or because they didn't want government to tell them what to do actually shook my view of human nature. I still have difficulty in comprehending what actually happened, it's as if a large section of society had suddenly turned into lemmings and started marching towards the ocean. For most of my life I thought the human species was smarter than that.

How wrong I was.
The word "falsifiable" does not mean the thing that you are using it for. It sounds like you are using it to mean "it was proven wrong." When talking about theories, a theory that is not falsifiable is one that could not be ever proven wrong.

The best theories are falsifiable, but have a lot of evidence pointing for the theory, and little or no against it.
> market failures are the parts that are not free-as-in-freedom, they are on "free" as in "freedom"-to-coerce,-kidnap,-rip-off etc.

Again, this is wrong. This is fantasy that people like to believe, but it is not the case. The failures on in the "free-as-in-freedom" parts. And that's the part I'm explicitly calling out because it is naive.

Communists arguing that the main thing required for communism is we get everyone to give up their own self-interest and work just as hard for no financial reward is wrong and devoid of reality. Saying that this is a requirement for successful socialism is absurd and ridiculous.

Free market capitalists arguing that people will just give up their own self-interest and not behave selfishly to maximize their profits, by explicitly avoiding and inhibiting perfect competition to their direct benefit, is also just as absurd and ridiculous. It's not because of a devolvement into laisse-faire or anarcho-capitalism (or due to 'extra-market coercion' or kidnapping as you list). It is inherent in free-as-in-freedom "free market capitalism". Selfishness drives profit motive. Profit motive in markets that are imbalanced create inequal power. Power imbalances in any human system (like a marketplace) centralize power. Centralized power prevents competition. That is the key point. And thinking that people won't be selfish and prevent legitimate market competition, or ignoring that power imbalances always centralize in systems, or believing that just giving people freedom to act will not devolve into centralized power is barely less naive than the "communists" view I wrote above. Free markets naturally lead to centralized power and eliminate market competition. That is the fundamental problem.

The essential force that free-as-in-freedom "free market capitalism" needs is a countervailing force that enforces market competition. Without it capitalism eats itself due to human nature. Just the same as communism eats itself due to human nature.

Utter nonsense. Kings and the like could not exist until agricultural societies needed armies to protect them from invasion. Only from within such material circumstances and relations could divine right be wrought on a public imagination, whether it be monarchic kings or founders of PayPal.

Well I poked around, I’m not sure exactly what you’re seeing. One would expect more covid deaths in the placebo, and that is the case. Most of the deaths in both groups are indeed unrelated to Covid at all. You can see exact cause of death for all participants here: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/medrxiv/early/2021/07/28/202...

I suspect the number your focusing on is the 4 cardiac arrest deaths. At a glance it seems 4x higher than the one reported placebo death. But the number is 4 vs 1 for over 20k people. Why not instead focus on placebo group having 2 vs 0 myocardial infarction? The reason why not is that dying is noisy business, and things like cardiac arrest have a pretty high baseline, and this is such a small sample the variance is likely noise.

Perhaps you could present a proper statistical analysis to convince otherwise? Something similar to the methodology for determining Covid vaccine’s effectiveness in preventing Covid deaths. After all, the data is all there. I didn’t see anything resembling such an analysis in your linked source. Just the confused ramblings of someone nontechnical, clearly out of their depth in reading a fairly basic research paper.
