Musk is so incredibly 'mercurial' that he has been the longest running CEO of a space company and the company has performed exceptionally with incredibly reliability and literally most of the world, including Dod, NASA, ESA, tons of other government and most commercial space costumers in the world relay on it and have done so for a long time.

It seems people sometimes move focus and believe Twitter drama directly means SpaceX is some wildcard, while by literally every piece of evidence it isn't.

> it will be a conflict of interest not in your favor.

SpaceX has already made the policy clear that they will launch competitors sats. Should that change in the future, you still got the initial benefit now. And even if you don't want to relay on that 100%, you could still do 1/2 or 1/3 of the inital launches on SpaceX.

You should not get a PhD for the money. That's always been the case. It's a research degree. If it will open doors for the type of work you want to do, that's the only time it's worth it.

Traditionally, the reason to get a PhD was that it was the only way to get an academic job. In 2023, I don't recommend academic employment. Sadly, it's just another type of employment today. I started my first academic job in 2002 and things were different back then.

> Do not repeat the nonsense that "not only has your [real] income decreased, but inflation has made things more expensive".

Non-Sequiter. That isn't a quote of something I wrote.

The thing I actually wrote is "so not only do you get less for your money you also have less money!". Which is accurate. Shrinkflation means when you go out to buy detergent you only get 15.5 oz instead of 16oz so you're getting less for your money. Real income decreasing by 2.3% means you have less money. "so not only do you get less for your money you also have less money!"

People really aren't going to care that their income is up 5% if the rent is up 8% ... The real value is noticed.
Calling RISC-V "open source" as a blanket term is misleading. Plenty of cores are secret, proprietary designs.

>Not one mention that inflation is caused by the government and central banks expanding the money supply.

The recent inflation is more because of unfettered capitalism. Supply chain issues? Ok let's just keep on raising prices as much as we can. Things back under control? Ok, well we are still going to claim we have issues and just keep on raising prices.

Workers want more money? Ok instead of us shareholders taking the hit, we are going to pass on every bit of that (and more) to the consumer because "we can".

Want to go to a football game? A concert? Disney world? Cool- we are just going to keep increasing prices like crazy because there is a large enough people in the top 10% that will pay because that increase doesn't really matter.

Prices are being driven the fuck up because of greed and income divide.
Some people have more difficulty shifting, but that aside, some factors that feed into chronotype can be more impactful than others. If you moved to the other side of the world, you would surely shift your circadian rhythm and fall back to the habit of getting up at 10am or later, eventually (faster than you think). Sunlight is a powerful factor, but there is also timing of work, social cues, food, and preference. All of that informs tendency towards morning-ness or evening-ness.

The reason this is important is you can manipulate those factors to shift, the same way traveling several time zones away would automatically make you shift.
It's kinda both for me. If you have certainty from top to bottom that something will always be const, then maybe.

This is often not true, and even if you think so, you're often wrong. I can't recall all the consequences of the flaws in the system (promote/demote const), but it's not fun to deal with.

I've seen so many things wind up passed to a function or going through an interface eventually that's non-const (or lets not forget is "const'd for safety").

This is where some would say you should give up on practical grounds... if the mission is to determine which const scenarios can be ensured, you argue this is not practically possible and throw the whole thing out.

You don't tell anything special. All these things are typical underdog experience, happen periodically when use very strict economy.

Mathematics model is very similar to oversell of air tickets.
Idea, that constantly, few humans late to plane or don't fly for some reason, so companies sell more tickets than seats. Sometimes all people meet inside plane and see oversell.

Some things may become slightly better if you just switch to other cheap hoster (this is like recalculate sharding). But if you will switch to significantly more expensive price (better also change hoster) you will see very different world.

Or you could just wait, and when happen next economy grow, some things will resolve themselves.

> Real income decreasing by 2.3% means you have less money.

You still appear to not understand.

You have MORE money in your paycheck (if you were a median income earner in both 2021 and 2022). That money just has less purchasing power by a greater amount than the increase in money.

More money (nominal income is up), but less purchasing power (real income is down).
>I'd like to see bulbs that can be assembled by hand in order: socket, controller, LEDs, enclosure.

I'll bet you dollars that none of those things are failing.

It's very likely capacitors. To make these cost effective, they have AC/DC converters and aren't putting a ton of love into SMPS buck switching. They're choosing the cheapest components pushed to their limits. Or, just plain don't care at all.

The rated hours of a typical electrolytic cap is something like 2000 hours at it's rating and at 20ºC which these are not. So if you need more than that you over-rate it. But that's expensive, and someone will look at it and say "You have 12VAC, you can buy a 16V cap and that's all".

Without too fine a point on the underlying issue... Stop buying future-trash made by people that really don't care what they're making.

> The difference of nuance vs Photoshop is completely unclear.

It's perfectly clear if you realize similar is not same.

> Back in 2005 or so, kuro5hin (a now gone discussion site) closed signups because somebody photoshopped the founder's wife's head onto some porn. That was 18 years ago.

So what? Everyone here understands that's possible. If you think that example somehow addresses the concern, you missed the point.

> True, doing it with Photoshop took a bit of skill, but it is a skill a lot of people have, for whom it would be doable in minutes.

Also, IIRC, that particular Photoshop of Rusty's wife was terrible, as in obvious.

The skill "a lot of people have" is to make bad photoshops. Generative AI has the ability to near-effortlessly make high-resolution ones that most people could confuse for a real photo.

> For a newbie, figuring out Stable Diffusion is probably more work than figuring out how to do it in Photoshop.

Again, what quality can a newbie achieve with photoshop after a couple days effort? And how long will Stable Diffusion be hard to setup? You do realize someone's going to come up with an easy-to-run "revengeporn.exe" sooner rather than later?
Either prices collapse or nominal incomes rise to make housing affordable.

In the 80s the latter occurred... however wage inflation is not running hot enough for this to repeat on a reasonable timeline, unless wages reaccelerate. Which is entirely possible if e.g. Fed backs off before labor market loosens and we have a second wave of inflation (just as happened in the 70s and 80s)

> The second difference/risk comes with looking whom these apps target: kids. [...] kids are sponges

So far as I can tell, the people most vulnerable to Internet propaganda, manipulation, and general bullshit, aren't kids. They're old people. And maybe younger people who've been raised in bubbles that were a bit overprotective.

TikTok users are mostly teenagers, not little children. By the time you hit your teens, whatever anti-manipulation systems humans have seem to have largely kicked in. That's what you'd expect, really, since that's always been about when you had to start playing the manipulation and anti-manipulation game in real life.

Another part of youthful plasticity seems to be an ability to adapt your defenses to the particular threats you're seeing. When I was a kid, seeing something in 4 or 5 apparently "independent" written sources was pretty good evidence that it was true, or at least widely believed. My own kid seems to have a pretty good intuitive knowledge that she can't just trust those sources' independence, or their credentials, or their judgement.

Read my post. I never said that renewables caused the TX incident. I pointed out that outages happen, and that outages are more predictable and likely in the case of renewables.

Oddly, the fact that fossil fuel sources were a precipitating cause in TX bolsters my claim, because removal of those sources from the grid supply could not be offset by renewables (some of which were also offline).
At a guess - I suspect they are assessing risk of investing time/money in installing your product into their company and how they would deal with issues if you are off ill one day or want a holiday.

You need to be honest about your company size, but turn it into a positive, such as sole developer, backed by a third-party support package (assuming you have one), or that the company is expected to grow fast, so they wont be relying on just one person to fix things etc.

Pitch it really well, and depending on the type of customer, they may even end up wanting to invest in your company to help you scale up faster than you could expect (yes, I have seen that happen with start-ups).

Don't be afraid of awkward questions like these, as they will crop up, and each time you gain experience in handling the RFP style enquiries, and with experience comes improved skills to close those sales deals.

That's a bit misleading without mentioning all the mess that comes with signals.

Threads are a problem. Reentrancy is a problem, so you can't just call printf from your signal handler. Libraries are a problem, independent users of signals will easily step on each other's toes. There's a lack of general purpose signals, which compounds the problem. Signals are inherited when forking. Signals are not queued and therefore can be lost.

Signals carry no data, so they can't tell the program "This specific pipe closed", you have to figure out yourself which specific thing the signal is relevant to.

I'm probably forgetting more stuff.

TL;DR: Signals are a pain in the butt and IMO undesirable to use under most modern circumstances. If you have something better you can use, you probably should. It would be nice to have kdbus or something similar with more functionality, and less footguns.

Am I reading incorrectly, or the author legitimately believes that low inventory and selling to milenials is going to stop all out recession? High interest rates are going to keep inventory so low that newer generations that should be buying homes and starting new families won't be able to afford it. Homes will only come into the market once there current occupants pass or move and there has been unprecedented amount of holds/hold to rents in this cycle (since the previous recession).

I'm curious too about how Bofa analysts or speculators would evaluate current home building or if there is some primer recently up to date.

My advice is find a PhD you want in Norway or the Netherlands. They have programs with competitive research groups, salaries that will get you a quality of life you will appreciate, they will end in 3-4 years, and they have money to pay for you to go to conferences, etc without you having to fight for it from your adviser. Everywhere else sucks.

No. It's about maximizing value per emission. The value of luxury goods is less than basic necessities (it's stuff we can live without by definition) so the rate should compensate for that.

I would accept a flat rate if each person got a fixed amount of emissions assigned to them and each person could decide to sell or keep their "emission right". Then everyone would have enough for basic needs.

In practice the results would be similar.

To add to this - one more concern might be that you will change your mind in 2 months and they want to protect their investment. To address that, you can cover the issue in contract - especially if it's business critical. So open discussion is probably most important as it will help you with future clients.
"Right now, it is just me as I recently started this startup. Do you have any questions or concerns ? "

Then listen. Sometimes it is just a casual question. Sometimes it is a checklist. Also depends on how large the customer itself is.

You can also make this a plus by adding "You get direct support from the founder and will never have to talk to a robot" if they have any further concerns/objections.

I have lost like 2 deals out of 1000s where the company size was a potential issue and that too I am guessing because they never told me specifically but I guessed based on their questions/concerns.

Zero hypothesis: N deaths happen by chance, given a known probability distribution of patient deaths.

Alternative: There was a different probability distribution in play (apparently facilitated by a specific nurse).

P-value: 1 in 342 million, really convincing.

So, is the fallacy that somebody calls the number "probability" rather than "p-value"? Or am I getting it wrong?

What income?
As much as I loathe taxation from a fundamentally philosophical standpoint, I think a 20-30x multiple of the minimum (or perhaps a 10-20x multiple of the median) wage is a good floor for income taxes.
