How much rent seeking and regulatory capture that goes on is enabled by modern finance?

What about bailouts for financial institutions that are too big to fail - the idea of privatizing the profits and socializing the losses?

Real wages are down and income inequality is up over the last several decades, coinciding with a lot of growth in the finance industry. Subprime and payday loans, 30 year mortgages backed by the government, leveraged buyouts, stock buybacks, tax havens, etc. Private and public debt levels are way higher than at any time prior to WWII. Right from the age of 18 we have kids signing large student loans, the banks don't care about their risk since the loans are federally backed and will follow these kids until the day they die.

A lot of people feel that the general public is being squeezed by financiers. Are they wrong?
Agree. I also like the relative dates. E.g. on Github where it’s useful to get an intuition very fast of when files in folders/projects were last updated. I don‘t care about the actual dates in this moment, the fuzziness of the relative date is the approximation I‘m looking for.
They are widely used in narrow circles :)

Two of (arguably the best) open source RC aircraft flight controllers (ArduPilot and PX4) are using extended Kalman filters in their state estimators (essentially sensor fusion that provides attitude/position estimate):

I'm not that familiar with cleanflight/betaflight/inav scene to know what the FPV racer flight controllers use.
Well if "much more relaxed" environment also fairly translates to less hours (to compensate for the less payment) then I'd be okay with it but I suspect it does not.
No, that would be undefined behavior, as would other transmutations you could do with unsafe like converting it to a mutable reference.
Wow. How did you verify that? And it's not using Bing?
It’s amazing the subtle ways that pursuit of profit can slow down progress. We’re well aware of the big obvious ways that can happen but there’s seemingly small things like this too which add up.
You certainly want to stop cutting trees. I think it’s 10 million cut each days. Then invest time and money in ecosystem preservation and adaptation. Many scientific reports available, let you google that.
Another great session of George and John recording Oh My Love [1] shows what I think of as embracing rough but promising ideas along with balanities like tuning guitars, learning chords, etc... The Beatles engaged in this process much more than most musicians, despite it meaning most the stuff they played sounds relatively bad compared to playing tunes they'd practiced a bunch before. Is this due to work ethic or some love of creation? Idk, but it is fascinating to see the sausage get made.

Not being production ready isn't an excuse when you are writing code that is intended to be copied by others.
Or maybe people that don't care about games nor gamers will prefer to work there and spend their time on other things, who's to say?

The 'modern' output is what it is and it was disliked by the majority of the player-base, so much that if it wasn't for re-releases of the old content some of their franchises would be near dead.
To be clear GPS does provides high-quality Doppler derived velocity. It's a fundamental output of all GNSS systems, separate from the positional data and certainly not provided by differencing positional data.

---

I suspect much or all of the data boradcast is GPS derived. Would be nice to have some hard data there.

For almost all general aviation aircraft in the USA the data source for ADS-B Out is GPS. All the GA STCs I've seen are GPS only position sources. Many modern GA aircraft will have AHRS but not a full INS, and so INS is not an option for them. Even on larger business jets that may have INS with GPS integration I am not clear any actually use it to drive ADS-B Out, the few installations I've looked at were all GPS.

Boeing was an early advocate for GNSS alone driving ADS-B Out. I think their argument was simplicity, everybody has the same data, and not dependent on erroneous INS or INS settings. I'm not sure what they ended up doing with all their actual installations. If the intent is to send more exotic data such as roll-angle they'll need some INS or at least AHRS integration, but there is no requirement to broadcast that data. The few early third party STCs I saw for ADS-B Out installations in Boeing aircraft only used GPS data sources.
Is there an article/primary source on this that you can point up? I spent a few minutes searching but couldn't seem to find anything.
I don’t understand some of the dynamics sometimes. For instance, I am 44, been coding professionally since 18. Zero college.

I make 106k in CT in a position focused 75% with Java/Spring for modbus/motion control. (Industrial automation) My other 25% is in what I could label “big data” but is really ETL for a crap ton of near real time transactions.

I enjoy it. I would love to make more money; 106 is hard with a family and such.

But when I look and align my skills, history, and ability to speak in front of anyone - I see listings for 150k+ - and I totally don’t feel “worth” that at all.

Not just because I’m self taught, or have a history doing almost all “it roles”, it’s because I’ve spent 90% of my time in the gloriously underpaid healthcare sector. (Still there.)

What is it like making an offer to someone for 150k for a fully remote position? I could never imagine.

The four-quadrant matrix I am familiar with is:

Urgent Not-Urgent
Important Q1 Q2
Not-Important Q3 Q4

- Q1: Do it now

- Q2: Do it the next time you can

- Q3: Do it now or don't do it at all

- Q4: Don't do it at all

Compare this to the modified matrix:

One-Time Repeating
Important MQ1 MQ2
Not-Important MQ3 MQ4

If I understood your post, the translation is:

- MQ1: Do it yourself

- MQ2: Delegate

- MQ3: Don't do it at all

- MQ4: Delegate but maybe not done at all

It is interesting that Q1->MQ1 and Q2->MQ2 quite straightforwardly, but (Q3, Q4) -> (MQ4, MQ3) seem to be swapped.
The short but unfulfilling answer is that this is because the DOCSIS standard historically has allocated a much broader frequency range for DL than UL. Unlike other forms of communication (like cell) that can use similar frequency ranges for transmit and receive, DOCSIS tends to slice something like < 70Mhz for UL and >70Mhz to 1Ghz for DL (I'm probably remembering the details incorrectly, trust Google over me!). Switching the frequency ranges often requires different circuitry and therefore different hardware.

I would guess that unlike fiber -- rarely saturated in a consumer context -- people have ~always wanted more than what cable can provide and thus the operators needed to be strategic about the allocation of bandwidth between DL and UL, hence the asymmetry.

I would say the same. I don’t get any schizo vibe, though. Only a great deal of feeling victimised.

It sounds like you feel abandoned by your family and that this keeps you in such a distressed state that it prevents you from operating.

It may be that you are quite alone in this world right now. I would suggest finding someone locally that you can connect to, who can guide you to a path where you feel emotionally secure.

If this is how you enter a job interview, you need to cover your bases in Maslow’s pyramid a bit more. I understand the dichotomy, but the root cause is emotional, not economic.

What a dangerous perspective. When I visit a website and send a request for a URL and they chose to send back some data that is not creating a foreign embassy on my computer. There's no enclave in which their rules apply instead of mine. It's my hard drive and ram and the state of them is mine as well.

Yes, it's their data. But it's my computer. I can chose to change the font size, the css attributes, or even javascript functions if I so chose. This entitlement that many corporations display towards human people is like they think you sat down on a computer terminal they own in their physical store. That's not what's happening. If I don't want to execute the code someone else sent me I don't have to. It's ignorant lawyer-think to believe otherwise.
Bit of a lecture but I don't see this mentioned anywhere:

Most people don't know what to manage means because most of what's written on it is about the How(s), and not the What or the Why of it. When it clicks that to manage means to extract value from, a lot of how to do that falls into place. The value from people can be in terms of work, tasks completed, commitments to outcomes, growth of a persons skills and the quality and efficiency of their work, etc. Lots of possibilities. Whereas managing things usually means assets and money, and it's analogous, but not related to the OPs question.

Often people use the word "managing" as a black box to mean they'll make decisions about it, usually later or when they have to, but that's not really extracting value from something. Being a gatekeeper or critic isn't managing either. Your job is to be a proxy for the desire for the value your team generates, and the better you understand (and in turn, appreciate) the value it provides, the better manager you're going to be. When you get a lot of value out of people, they feel valued, and it's a positive cycle. If you don't get a lot of value out of them, you treat them like shit and they notice that as well.

A manager of people understands the value their team provides outward, and finds ways of getting that value out of the members using various tools like mentoring, examples, incentives, clear vision and alignment, service and esteem maintainance, acknowledgment and appreciation, among others. Once you have this frame of mind about extracting value, you have most of what you need to manage well.

Ask HN: For those trying to hire how hard is it to find people currently?
Just wondering since things seem to be kind of broken on both ends right now: Tech people reporting that it's hard to find a new gig right now and hiring managers reporting that it's hard to find people right now. (thoughts on why this seems to be even more broke than usual?)
Peopleware is a gem of a book, yet most managers and leaders in the tech world haven't heard of it (or at least never read it).

A recent example from my last gig: the way of working was to shuffle people relentlessly between teams to address tight deadlines.

Just to emphasise how bad this was, team names were "Feature Team X" (where X is a number), because management wanted teams to shift very quickly. This was in a company which was building a product, but treated people as in a body shop. What the managers didn't realise is that encouraging that detachment between teams and what they were building, also made teams not really care about what they were building. The message was clear: teams don't own any part of the product.

Absolutely bonkers.
No, there is no guarantee that the reference will not be valid after the function returns. The only guarantee is that the reference will not be valid after the caller of the function modifies the referent (outside of an UnsafeCell), deallocates it, or creates a mutable reference to it. So there still is some escape analysis possible, in that any escape is scoped to the next modification.

Lifetimes do not affect whether or not something is UB on the language level; they only dictate which operations are safe and which are unsafe, and thus they act as a "social contract" for library-level UB.
A/b testing or rolling out country by country probably.
This could be a problem. I know companies that will block entire sites if they're hosting material like that, especially in the government contracting sphere.

It's been a technical limitation. DOCSIS 3.1 and below allocate certain frequencies to download and certain frequencies to upload. There's a lot more allocated to download because of how people typically use the connection. DOCSIS 3.1 moves to a more flexible channel structure that allows for high-split systems. Xfinity has been rolling out 75-200Mbps upload speeds with their DOCSIS 3.1 network, but DOCSIS 3.1 is still lacking for gigabit symmetrical connections.

DOCSIS 4 mostly removes that limitation and allows for the full amount of spectrum to be used for up or down.
I wonder how Obama has such a hold over the rights imagination. He was a bad president all in all (Syrian red lines/biofuel caused Arabian spring) but not exceptionally though. He definitely was no bush or Trump. And the ability to direct affairs for president or congress has significantly shrunk ever since the cold War ended.
I think it's a bit unobjectively critical to suggest that Elon Musk doesn't make a lot of good decisions.

We are not talking about buying things from Amazon. You signed up for a gaming service. If the allegations are true your son broke the rules and was abusive to other players.

Yes, coax (and DOCSIS) is far better than a telephone wire (and DSL).
Upload = people able to host and do things on their own.

Structuring-as-a-Service.

Things are pretty cut and dry in the finance world. And we have names for these types of things. It isn't mixer. It's Structuring.
Worse date things:

* Displaying "October 13" for dates that are years old.

* The convention that published papers don't have dates on them. This is a convention from the days when papers came in bound journals with a date on the cover, so there was no need for a date on each article. Now they come as standalone PDF files with no date info.
Swedish has two words for day. "Dag", same as the english "day", and "dygn", meaning "24 hour period". I'm not sure if you can use it in the way the author suggests that no human does, but maybe?

Being suspicious of media emerging during wartime is not "living in an alternate reality."

It's worth going to https://flyertalk.com and reading the forums. These are the people who play the airline status games.

Status with an airline is useful for (a) free upgrades, (b) lounge access, and (c) better phone service when you need to fix things.

I have Diamond status on Delta. (Top tier before their invite-only tier).

Upgrades. The only value I get out of it is that I can book a generic economy seat and immediately get upgraded to Comfort+ for free. I rarely get upgrades to First Class since Delta sells out the seats to real people for real money. I'm frequently #1 of a bunch of people on the upgrade list for nonexistent First Class seats.

Lounge access. I have the Delta Reserve Amex card that gets me into the lounges anyway.

Phone service. This is really an indictment of the shit service that airlines give. For a while, even with the priority phone service I would be on hold for an hour or so. It's far better now, admittedly.

Delta is making it drastically harder to achieve status in 2024. In all probability I am going to go free agent and fly any airline that gets me where I want to go, when I want to go, at a reasonable price.

The airline miles are useful. I don't think I've paid for a flight for my kids with money once in all the years they've been at university in other states. But that's just a "charge enough money on a credit card" thing. It has nothing to do with status.
