Most people, of course, didn't have servants at all, and the really big staffs were an _extreme_ outlier; in the period mentioned you're basically talking just high nobility. It did become _somewhat_ more common in the late 19th century (most of the really silly Downton Abbey type setups date from then), before collapsing entirely in the early 20th.
First step is to realise that it's not marriage itself that's helping the kids. The marriage is just the symptom of something else.

that is really interesting but I think I prefer html yet I forget why I prefer HTML
For a while I've wanted an SVG map with a JS API where you can input latitude and longitude and show the point on it. I hope this will do that!

The reason I want that is, almost all humans have a GPS device in their pocket. You could easily get your approximate location from this, even without cell service. Implementation could be a PWA.
I am a fan of the grey market Fluke 17B+. You get many of the features of the high end Flukes like the 87V without the high cost. They are my go to for non critical lab measurements.
On the other hand, a widespread capability of WfH, which wouldn't be possible without tech, or at least not in contemporary volume, is likely putting a downward pressure on housing in attractive areas.

If a well-earning programmer settles somewhere in a rural place, it means a) more money spent in a small community, b) one fewer affluent person seeking housing in an urban hotspot.

I would guess that the aggregated effect worldwide is an order of magnitude higher than whatever passes in Portland and SF.
Ok thanks for that, but that has two problems. First, it's still "account based". I can't label a single transaction. Second, it's not versatile enough, it's US specific.
I don't see the entry for knowing nothing about the work involved but debating to get your way about a design that doesn't solve the problem
Both of them need to conform to the same allowed patterns of markup. I think we lack a kind of markup schema or type system that everything can be validated against, where we can verify that our design takes every state and permutation into account, and that both styling and content implements their part of it correctly.
The 3 hour day is a rare thing, but I dont think that its more available in Australia than anywhere else... I know more people with that setup in the states, as an anecdote.

And fully remote in the states has the additional benefit of actual high speed internet.

Yes way way down in the (admittedly entertaining and well-written) post. I thought the comment was a useful summary.
QBittorrent is one of the best torrent clients but for some reason it uses way more CPU then uTorrent 1.8.2 which makes me to leave a whole machine with i7 just for downloading some books and music with qBittorrent.
I thought of this as why authoritarian regimes are so so bad at propaganda -- they have no experience in interacting with a normal, sometimes adversarial media landscape.

At home, they say the sky is red, everyone says "Yes" or gets a visit from the secret police.

So they do the same thing elsewhere, and there's criticism, memes, humor, apologism, etc... all the features of a more open information space with diverse opinions.

But they have little basis for how to interact with that, because they didn't need any of the nuanced soft power skills at home.

And so you get Russia endlessly repeating 'Everything is proceeding as planned in the special military operation' and China saying the Philippines "deliberately stirred up trouble" by navigating and claiming Philippine UNCLOS-EEZ waters in the Spratlys.
Yes, agreed. In the works.
The way I see it the super-rich were just lucky winners, a multi-billionaire had as much agency becoming such as the President of the United States.

He is just the lucky beneficiary of a great filter and unprecedented tail-wind which propelled him into the stratosphere of wealth.

If you expropriated Microsoft, Google, Apple, Amazon, Facebook etc. from the hands of billionaires and handed over the expropriated equity to Vanguard, BlackRock, StateStreet and the myriad of Pension Funds nothing would fundamentally change.

These big organizations run on autopilot, organization achieves a great success CEO shows up to take the honors, organization has a great failure and there is a whole apparatus put in place to distance the CEO as far as possible from the failure.

The most preposterous lie that wealthy people ever managed to sell to the population is that they are instrumental for the delivery of goods and services that people love, in fact the smartest among the wealthy (Gates, Buffet, Bezos etc) understand that this lie can collapse at any time and have pivoted towards a more secure lie being "yes the money is from the lottery winnings , but they are being returned at a steady rate to the population via philantropic foundations" except the wealth is untaxed and they decide the steady rate at which the returning is happening and by coincidence it's always steady but very slow and enables them to keep accumulating and so even if the descendants decide to keep their word it would take a dozen generations before it happens.
New and updated CSS rules should be usually needed for new "themes", exactly the type of change that semantic markup is robust against (e.g. placing image captions in a sidebar rather than below the respective images), and for backwards compatible extensions of the original design that add support for something new that will only be used in new markup in new pages (e.g. allowing small images inside paragraphs, meant to be displayed inline, in addition to large ones between paragraphs).

What kind of fragile markup and problematic CSS global rules are you worrying about?
The earliest implementation was Burroughs B5500, in 1961, a bytecode OS written in safe systems language (ESPOL shortly thereafter replaced with NEWP), where all hardware operations are exposed via intrinsics, and is one of the first recorded use of explicit unsafe code blocks.

The CPUs were microcoded, so the bytecode was for all practical purposes Assembly.

I feel like economics has gone backwards, for generations now, in its understanding of monetary/debt/macroeconomic inflation.

I don't think we ha "The Answer" before. But now we don't even have the questions anymore.

A country/economy can't "borrow from the future," or save for the future. We can invest in the future. We can eat the seedcorn, but those are very limited.

China used debt creation, like other economies did/do to catalyze increased economic activity. That economic activity is from the present, not the future. Present construction workers doing work, getting paid..

It demonstrably represents economic potential being realised. The "unsustainable" part is the debt. Meanwhile, paying back the debt (the economy as a whole) creates the reverse process. Economic activity recedes.

I think the prevalence of "jubilee" in ancient culture is a clue. Economies really do need a debt cancellation mechanism to be stable. Bankruptcy is insufficiently scalable.

The west's "solution" has been nationalisation of debt. But, instead of a preprepared plan, it's a chaotic, emergency event that only a handful of bankers understand before it's too late.

We need some new ideas here. China too.

Woman wins 12-year legal battle against Google
Well, I know my Dad would have gone for this - though only to increase his chances of being around to look after my mother. As it turned out, however, his cancer was too far progressed by the time an operation could be scheduled.

For anyone in that situation it's worth looking into "NanoKnife" [1] as this seems to have bought him a couple of years more than we might have otherwise expected. He outlived my mother with pretty good QoL.

Pancreatic Cancer is swift, so at least in terms of the odds, 25% chance of five years with Whipple is quite good compared to no action.

It probably isn’t worth digging too much into what was essentially a joke. I think the claim is that one would sufficiently trust the safety guarantees of the compiler/runtime to not need any runtime memory protection (software or hardware).

The hardware mmu does have costs: tlbs are quite small and looking things up in a several-layer tree adds a lot of latency. If vm were fine, no one would care much about hugepages, and yet people do care about them. (Larger pages means fewer tlb misses and fewer levels in the tree to look up when there is a miss)
Single Address Space OSs have been around forever. Turns out that memory protection is useful even if you are running memory safe code.

Also spectre.
No, Apple is not the same for this. Their devices do not suffer from anything like the same downtime after running at peak - but they can do nothing to stop developers draining the battery, and that's what is going on. If they were to do that developers would have a giant hissy fit about it.

I have worked with prototypes from other manufacturers that had to be recalled after burning people. I have also found bugs in SoCs that their manufacturers were lying to OEMs about, and had to explain to different OEMs what was going on, after they had shipped millions of units.

The simple truth is modern developers are irresponsible and so the manufacturers get to play everyone off against each other to spread as much self serving nonsense as possible.
Thanks for pointing out the refresh.
Only because they are already five years late adding GC support, and even then WASM isn't the first bytecode format supporting C and C++, there are already a couple since 1980's.
> ... likely putting a downward pressure on housing in attractive areas.

The theory is good. Unfortunately, that downward pressure doesn't seem to be having any effect for cities in many western nations. Pretty close to runaway house pricing these days. :(
Agon Light a much better approach than Raspberry Pi, for sure.

Yet overlooked.
I think mostly because it’s less efficient byte transfer size, roughly +25%, and also it won’t be downloaded as an image in parallel.

They have defenses.

> "With an EV, mileage and age don't tell you anything," said Berger. "It's all about the battery."

Software also matters because you can not just BYOD into Tesla. If some memory chip fails because of too much personal data collected, it make all the car just into a brick state.
The DMCA requires that the material be restored “no less than ten days”[1] after receiving the counter-notice, to allow the person who filed the original takedown to file a suit to keep it down if they are serious.

The penalty for the platform is that they lose their safe harbor; if a takedown has merit and they restore it before 10 days they could be sued too. I do wish platforms would go to bat for their users when a takedown was obviously fraudulent and restore the content immediately, but getting it wrong would be expensive.

Imagine the cpu this ran. Also it seems to have cost around $18k at the time it was created (~1960’s). So comparable to small house price.
Yeah, I wasn't clear. They talk about "excess savings", which, as far as I understand, are additional savings relative to baseline, so total amount of money saved should be much higher.
Yet we, the average person, are supposed to be concerned with the environment while corporate ogres play frivolous games like selling “Cooler Screens”. I say fuck it, burn it all down, we are doomed and being sold a lie.

there are some custom content versions, such as Autio, but our thought was to take advantage of all the free podcast episodes (the podcasters love it because it's another form of discovery and their audio plays exactly the same).
I never knew these were actually 90mm, and not actually 3.5in. Surprising, since I'm in a metric country.
I am one such case, I moved away from Prague (insane real estate prices, some of the worst in the EU) to Ostrava (city where I was born, rust belt, real estate prices around 40 per cent of those in Prague), while being able to earn the same money at a distance.

Ofc I had to lower my expectations with regard to good restaurants etc., but the resulting slack in our monthly household budget is enjoyable.
Authorization (ABAC) implementation in 130 lines of code
Chipset makers, probably correct but there aren't that many companies that make them. Depends on the analogue front end if they support the new frequencies.

I know the 3rd party module makers do tailor their modules to regions and the 'world wide' models can be quite pricey. On the region specific versions they don't include some of the hardware to physically operate on frequencies they don't specify. Sounds crazy, but a few cents here or there is worth running multiple SKU's.

There are probably other issues such as radio compliance and patents that also prevent an upgrade.

The VoLTE upgrade isn't so surprising. For a long time we had 3G/4G modules however the mobile networks didn't support VoLTE so everything would fall back to 3G. Once everyone got their act together, a quick firmware upgrade and VoLTE worked perfectly without adjusting the hardware.
thanks, and yes, the mobile interface needs work...
There are different implications though. One implies there's some meaning while the other does not.
I'm... not seeing the added value, it's not particularly attractive, it lacks features (like a backlight, multiple alarms), the 15:25 time is wonky and looks like it was edited, the menu is basic and not very well designed, etc. Someone's trying to sell their at home IoT project but didn't spend the time to add value.
Killing browser plugins was the right decision; besides the poor performance and responsive design, they were a security nightmare with hundreds of unpatched issues. It can't be understated just how much safer visiting a random webpage is these days versus a decade or two ago.

I loathe Apple, but their influence in killing plugins will go down as one of the most important steps forward in web development history.

The only sad part is how many AS3 and Silverlight games just kinda disappeared into the void.
If ever anything needed a TL;DR. I'd love to read it. Something makes blood move by itself though I gave up trying to track down the point.

This is a nitpick and not pertinent to anything, but base64 encoding your password could make it stronger. Password strength is not just about entropy, high entropy is simply the most effective way of making your password stronger. If your password is 100% randomly generated (as it should be) then base64 encoding it won't do anything.

If however your password is engineered to be easier to remember, for example by using dictionaries or some kind of scheme that has a lower entropy, then the base64 encoding step adds a single bit of strength to your password. Meaning anyone who is brute forcing your password using a smart password cracker, has to configure that cracker to also consider base64 encoding as a scheme, basically forcing it to perform a single extra operation for every try.

Anyway, useless information, you shouldn't be using password schemes like that. The horse shoe battery staple type password style should be quite sufficient I think.

Graduating Down a Rabbit Hole
Maybe it would be possible to make the archive in "stages"? Like the first stage is readable without any equipment and describes how to make equipment to read the next stage. Repeat until you have a high-precision microscrope and can read the nanofiches.

> We must accept that there's some ongoing upkeep of an archive regardless of how durable its contents are.

That's a good point too. Archiving is a living process.
> Is she really suggesting that an unstable, abusive 2P household is significant better than any 1P household?

She does not consider the quality of the household whatsoever. That is the problem.

> TFA states that 50% of children in the US are born to unmarried mothers. Should we assume that 50% of fathers are abusive or demanding or just an overall net negative like Matt suggests? That seems like /quite/ a stretch.

That doesn't mean 50% are divorced. For instance, my own partner and I are unmarried and recently had a child together, but we aren't divorced.

> Matt assumes that the single mothers turning down “$44,000 and free childcare” must be doing so rationally

? No he doesn't.

> quite naively assumes that unmarried mothers have the same ability to find a long-term partner as somebody without kids

Again, no he doesn't assume this at all. In fact, the article doesn't mention repartnering whatsoever.

> If the axles are not physically tied, there is no way for any of the four wheels to know how much traction it actually has until it breaks free. Then, of course, it knows "too much" torque and it can apply traction control. But the damage is done. It has broken free, and any negative consequences have already happened prior to the computer being able to make any further calculations.

> Again, if physically locked together with large gears and drive shafts, there is no possible way for one wheel to break free in that manner, unless of course something is broken.
