But like serious question, are you tired enough that you'll actually stop using payment cards? Is it worth the inconvenience and losing 2%ish off the top of everything you buy?

Assuming that's correct, that effectively boils down to the same thing? Prices would be somewhat lower if merchants didn't need to consider the ~3% disappearing in the payment processor.

> Humans drive in all sorts of conditions that self driving cars flat out don't

that's exactly why they are not allowed in all sorts of conditions! Where did this all-or-nothing demand come from? If a self-driving car shows less accidents than humans in Phoenix, why would you apply numbers from e.g. Montana, how is that apples-to-apples? and if it's shown safe in Phoenix conditions, why not let it run in Phoenix, just like the current approach?
Europe also has a shortage, as it turned out a lot of both timber and lumber came from Russia. This has pushed up demand for imports from North America, which I guess has a knock on effect to other regions.

Prices in Europe still haven't dropped back to their original levels. In my country pellets for heating were €150 per ton in 2021, €600 per ton (and much worse quality) in 2022, and now are around €300 per ton.
How much edgier can you get than Korn, Limp biscuit, Linkin Park, Metallica, etc... we took heavy and hard to the top of the arc - we left our children with just choosing which music styles of the past they like the best because their parents bested them on edgy music, hehe... in a way its kinda sad. I mean there really isn't anything that can offend xennial parents (millennial/x-gen), we're oblivious to just about everything at this point.

We've grew up watching shows like Growing Pains, Saved By The Bell, and grew to watch things like Shameless, Spartacus, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad. We love shock factor so much, when something should shock us, we're often oblivious to it.

I wonder if parents always hated the music of their kids, even before modern eras. 1920s? 1800s? 1700s?

The other factor is that a lot of the hate for music was religion based and many now aren't religious anymore, so that's a non-factor. Take the case of Twisted Sister vs Tipper Gore for example lol.

> But in another, critical sense, addiction does discriminate among people, in a way that is unjust and deadly, and in a way that shines a spotlight on tears in the socioeconomic web that is holding our society together. It has long been observed by clinicians that social determinants of health (SDoH) can tip the scales against people, in their already daunting quest to recover from any type of addiction. According to the World Health Organization, SDoH are defined as "the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age. These circumstances are shaped by the distribution of money, power, and resources at global, national, and local levels."

I am pragmatic about it, in DC, you will be penalized for not using a credit card as most people do use them and therefore businesses have baked in the fees.

However having the option not to is a very important privilege I feel we should protect.

Believe it or not we do have cash first businesses and I make it a point to use cash with them as they will only charge a fee if you use a credit card.

Amazing how counterproductive this is, and how the Federal Reserve refuses to see this.

High prices are their own cure. Given high demand and high margins, people will increase production to meet demand. And yet this is not going to happen because interest rate hikes have doubled the price of new construction.

High interest rates may lower or slow real estate appreciation in the short term, but they also increase it in the long term by killing production increases.

And this practice is super common but it's usually worded in the reverse and more when dealing with business where being able to accept cards isn't a selling point, like your rent or government services. They'll just the 3% direct to you. One of the weirder examples was when paying a fee for a permit I needed. They charged me $x for the service, then $y separately to cover the fee for $x.
This seems also intended to be read as the BBC deprecating its presence on X, which alternative-universe situation is implied by the wording of the title and anti-X stance of the writer generally; obviously that's not the case, however much it might be wished here.
Exactly. Especially the music thing.

Today video content is the opposite of easy to stream. Even though I have an Amazon prime subscription, I pirate the show (telegram) and watch it on VLC full 1080p, because prime doesn't let me screenshare with my friends.

Yes I think of it as a response being a valid piece of content. For example if you recorded the above message in audio and I wanted to respond after your first paragraph then my response maybe:

[context] (your audio) "adding to conversation isn't part of canon content."

(my audio) "I disagree I think adding to the conversation can be just as valuable especially if content is filtered correctly meaning you'd only see comments from people you followed"

Something like that. But yes I do agree this is a huge issue and basically if it can't be solved then the app will fail.

The real issue is having to keep multiple copies of CUDA on a system to satisfy all the different moving parts that each want different CUDA versions and CUDNN versions, and those different CUDA installers fight over and uninstall each others' nvidia driver versions because CUDA is shipped with the nvidia driver, bundled and listed as an apt dependency.

My system changes from nvidia-525 to nvidia-535 to nvidia-520 to nvidia-515 on a daily basis because I need to reinstall a different CUDA version just to try some new paper's code.

PyTorch did it right, it now ships with its own CUDA and doesn't take a shit about version what you have in /usr/local. Everything else should do the same.

Linux actually got the "demons" right: those manifest as usually hidden activity in someone's brain, and in special circumstances can take control over the entire system (e.g. with a deadlock if it's a neutral demon, or by other means if it's malicious). Those Greek daemons, in contrast, never possess or control anyone: they may inspire, but only if the subject is consciously seeking such inspiration ("the gates must be opened from within").

Propublica has a nonprofit explorer (similar to Guidestar, but free) and tax filing viewer here: https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/460...

According to their FY2021 990 filing, they had $442k of "other" expenses.

It seems like they're required to disclose what those expenses are on the Schedule O form if they exceed 10% of all expenses, which they do, but I don't see the expenses enumerated there. (edit: oops, now I see)

I am, err, not a tax professional so I stopped here..
That doesn’t necessarily follow though. Consumers are more likely to go to a store that takes credit cards and spend more once they are there than a store that accepts only cash. If the merchant has to pay 3% in credit card fees for a 20% increase in revenue, that’s likely a good deal for the merchant.
You could always burn them off.

If there are any laws we need to pass is that credit card fees should be disclosed on all receipts and optional. Cash buyers should not get penalized for not using a credit card.
Functionally, some % of those "trafficking" or "sales" charges are actually "possession" charges.

> You can be charged with drug trafficking even if you have not actually sold any drugs. Prosecutors will try to show that you were in possession of a controlled substance and planned to sell or distribute it, even if you were going to distribute it for free or use it with friends.

Texas is finally calming down on weed but back when I was in college I knew plenty of friends that were slapped with "trafficking" because they had some normal amount of grams on them and the cops just went for it. That lets prosecutors scare them into shitty deals because with trafficking you're looking at years of prison.

Considering the scale of the American prison industrial complex, I'm sure plenty of people didn't have good enough lawyers to get the bogus trafficking charges thrown out.

My point is that merchants do not NEED to consider the 3% disappearing. They can post a sign right now telling people “3% discount for using debit”.

The merchants that do not offer lower debit prices choose to pay the extra 3%. It is up to the customer to decide if prices at merchant that gives debit discount or merchant that does not give debit discount are better.

>There is a reason we don't use LSD for psychiatric treatment. This is no conspiracy theory, they tried, and failed.

This is wrong. There's a lot of misinformation around the history of psychedelics. The early "clinical trials" were extremely bad science. The short version is the scientist leading the team who first synthesized it was also the person who first attempted to popularize its use, and is pretty much a poster-child for "sex- and drug-crazed hippy". The US had already adopted a heavy anti-drug rhetoric and later LSD was rolled into the war on drugs effort. There was bad-faith-actors on both sides of the fence for a long time.

>Or it may traumatize you for life. [...] But suggesting a heroic dose to someone anxious with the implication that it may lead to a bad trip is going against every advice regarding psychedelics

Completely agreed. The potential for long-term trauma cannot be understated. They shouldn't be played with unsupervised, and the supervisor should be well versed in what happens with a good AND a bad reaction. (I don't like the term 'bad trip'.)
Also, the profile page status is incorrect. It shows Want to Read as 234, but the actual number is in the thousands - the correct number shows up if I go to userid/books. This is probably a caching issue somewhere.

This is awesome, thank you! Or should I say gratias tibi :)
But labor is, essentially, a fixed cost. Once a cook is working a shift, it costs the restaurant nothing extra (or a very small marginal amount) in labor to cook one additional order of wings. Most restaurants' problem is not the cost of labor, but the fact that expensive labor is idle much of the time. Lowering prices to increase volume would, in many cases, be a much better strategy, especially for a local restaurant which is starting out at a disadvantage compared to chains, which can purchase much larger volumes of food at lower prices.
Without State intervention there's nothing stopping businesses colluding to all go cashless. Or... all together do something else that's bad for us. Or monopolizing.

The strong enough reason is "it's better for the people."

It's easy how we decide whose preferences we mandate - we mandate people's preferences, and businesses find ways to make money within those constraints. There's no issue making profit like this, so I'm not sure where the concern is. Profits slightly dented for a second? Oh well.
