Well the location is the lifestyle. If the homeowner doesn't value the location as much as all the wealthy people clamoring for a spot in the neighborhood, yet they still hold onto their home, it truly is a bad allocation of resources among people.

None of these homeowners would even consider the option of selling their home and renting it from the purchaser, because it is so obviously a bad idea in every way. But their blindness to the alternative is also indicative of just how amazing a form of wealth is.

Super wealthy people are always convincing themselves that they are not wealthy, because they always see others with a higher level of lifestyle. I knew an older man who had built an empire of hotels, but because he wasn't Hilton, he always felt like a failure despite never flying commercial, owning mansions across the world, and being surrounded by servants at his beck and call.

When people have raised their wealth without their lifestyle "changing," yet they can now move nearly anywhere else and have a massive lifestyle improvement in consumption, without the location they were in, they somehow trick themselves into thinking this is not wealth.

Boston is extremely difficult to find public bathrooms especially around the Common/open drug marketplace.
It doesn’t seem like you actually care about this but if you do, it is important to have a sympathetic face to get public support. There is a reason Rosa Parks was chosen as the face of the bus boycott. SBF is never going to be the face of prison reform so acting antagonistically to people online not giving him sympathy probably won’t help prison reform.

My question was about the nature of a memory-managed language causing "leaks or stale objects or other logic bugs". This issue is not that - this is due to a buggy implementation causing memory leaks.

To be more precise: this is a bug, that was fixable, in the runtime, not in user applications that would run on top of it.

Assume a well-designed memory-safe language and implementation. What kinds of memory hazards are there?
Can someone explain to me how beef actually contributes to climate change more than any other food activity?

If you have a big open plain full of grass, does it change how much carbon is emitted if a cow eats it versus being left alone, dying, and rotting?

You have farm machinary involved I guess, but I would think actually more of it for plants than for beef especially when you consider fertiliser.

I understand that it’s possible to do worse than this though using feed lots because then you are effectively having to grow more crops (using more farm machinary and fertiliser) which basically increases the amount of carbon use versus just plants.

But then rather than saying “no meat” shouldn’t we just be saying “no feed lots”?

Shouldn’t there just be a push towards grass fed beef?

If the point of the article is that then start the article with it not with how hard Sam's life is.
No, but it is an animal suffering solution, if you count that fact that many if not most people will not reduce their meat consumption, so the way to achieve your goal (if reducing animal suffering is your goal) is not to change people's inherent behavior (significantly), because they will not change, but by offering alternatives that align with both your and their goals.

In other words, meet people where they are, not where you want them to be. There is a reason decades of vegan propaganda (I don't use this word in the negative way but in its original neutral definition) haven't made much of the population vegan but foods like Impossible/Beyond Meat have made significant in-roads to reducing animal suffering.

I predict we will all be vegan in 100 years, not because we decided to stop eating meat, but because we moved to lab-grown meat and other such alternatives.
Not that it matters, but I gained ~60 votes from repeatedly telling you to seek medical advice for your uncontrollable bowels.

There are so many different types of subscriptions that it’s unhelpful to bunch them together. The monthly box subscription was always a gimmick people were bound to get sick of.

> I think you'd be hard-pressed to find someone under 40 who doesn't know at least one couple who met online.

What an off-the-mark conclusion, I like many other tech working millennials grew up on the internet and came of age when it became (reluctantly) what it is now; of course I know people who met online, I have spent way too much of my Life online so I personally refused to use them and don't see their allure; I still rely on social interactions to meet partners. I'm way too analog in that respect despite a majority of my life being spent online.

> These people lost their jobs. No need to ignorantly denigrate their work as well.

They didn't lose their jobs, so much as showed that RTO is so absurd that its not worth returning even if it meant being terminated to satisfy the managerial class, and that is what conviction looks like; and I'm not denigrating their work, so much as underscoring worker resentment will make them move on to something more worthy of their time.

Ultimately, I'm praising them as they have my full solidarity and exposing Grindr to be just as myopic as Amazon/X/Tesla run by imbeciles who are forcing them back to the office despite many studies showing that the metrics and performance are not decreasing and have offered people actual work life balance and have made many (but not all) more satisfied and productive. This mentality is wide spread in Corporate America, and apparently Grindr is complicit and willing to risk it's workforce to do it to, despite all it's branding of inclusiveness it clearly doesn't include respecting their workers preferences: ironic huh?

Almost like this narrative only holds water when its profitable and suits them.

What? Rust doesn't do anything to "help you with those resources", either - you can still create cycles in ARC objects or allocate huge amounts of memory and then forget about it.

In both languages you have to rely on careful design, and then profile memory use and manage it.

However, Rust requires you to additionally reason about lifetimes explicitly. Again - great for performance, terrible for design, prototyping, and tools in non-resource-constrained environments*.

I'd expect it would expand the market for customized SoC/microcontroller parts.

We know there's already a lot of "built to purpose" RISC-V products ending up in embedded environments. When you have less obligations to a restrictive ISA grant, you can make something that fits your needs exactly.

So the business case is second-order:

* As has repeatedly been joked, fab companies who aren't locked to a captive/capricious owner (Intel) look appealing. It likely isn't about cutting-edge there, but the flexibility to handle diverse custom orders. Plenty of these products will be like "133MHz and a couple hundred thousand gates" that would be fine on 90nm or bigger.

* Firms that can move from "product" to "consultancy". There's a lot of brilliant work in existing ARM and RISC-V MCUs, but will existing firms be able to move away from "here's a matrix of features, order from the list" and into "Let us meet with your team, build a custom pick-and-mix and add a bespoke unit to meet your need for (smaller number than was historically common) product-specific MCUs?"
I bet you did.

The problem here is capitalism generally and neoliberalism specifically.

The idea of private property (as distinct to personal property) is fundamentally flawed. Every aspect of your life becomes financialized, including basic needs like food, water and shelter as well as education and health care. All of this becomes simply a means of extracting every last possible dollar from you through mountains of debt and sky-high rents.

Withholding shelter in the wealthiest countries in the world just so a handful of people can have $120 billion instead of $100 billion in net wealth is beyond coercion. It's state-sanctioned violence.

The solution is social housing. In places like Vienna the majority of people (~60%) live in state-owned housing. The state essentially guarantees housing (mostly), as it should.

The provincial governments of Canada should build a pool of housing through a combination of building, eminent domain and taking ownership of foreclosed properties. You could even have a scheme where people who are in arrears on their mortgage get to convert their house to being state-owned (which they can continue living in) where the mortgage gets bought out at a discounted value, which is what would happen anywya if it were underwater.

If you talk to anyone here in Canada there is bipartisanship. Real Estate owners and non-owners both agree housing prices to be a huge issue around Canada right now, but the former would never budge on reducing the prices as a means to a solution. They have too much invested too late. Non-owners on the other hand want price corrections to take place, but systemic issues such as a rising population due to immigration [1] and increasing construction costs [2] are causing upward pressure.

> Consumers are ultimately the ones that account for all of the problem.

You got this backwards. It's like trying to clean up a river by only picking up trash at its mouth. You're not going to do a great job.

Consumers can only buy what's available. Most people are too poor to make choices other than that on price. Capitalism can work great for price reduction but one way to do price reduction is quality reduction. If the whole non-luxury market is focusing on price reduction and the easiest way is to achieve that is quality reduction then guess what happens. On the other hand, if quality has to hold constant -- which happens when consumers are less price sensitive and won't go for a slightly cheaper option when competitor tries quality drop -- you have to research and build better and/or cheaper. BUT if most major players try the same strategy of quality reduction at the same time then consumers never get the chance to indicate to the market that they value quality.

> A Wall Street banker doesn’t have a carbon footprint that much higher than a regular person. Maybe even less.

Maybe don't guess and check first. We're on the internet, you don't have to respond immediately and state something that is verifiably false. While we don't have good refined data on specific jobs, there is strong correlation with wealth levels and specifically consumption rates. But if you're modeling a Wall Street banker as someone who works all day, takes the subway, sleeps, and never takes vacation then sure, that's lower. But don't confuse the mean and the median.

Edit: Taking our analogy from above: if all producers simultaneously have to do "x" then all consumers automatically also choose "x". This is where regulation can play a role since you can do things like "all cars must get at least 50mpg" or have a more market driven approach like "$100 fee per ton CO2eq" and use that fee to perform such actions like sequestration and/or research to make sequestration effective and cheap.
