If I was, they did not make that clear at all. They had a set of about 14 different "packages" that were aggregations of different etfs and such that were available to invest in and that's it. I couldn't find any way to invest in a single stock or etf.

They also told me I couldn't cash out my money until I left the company I worked for which I am pretty sure is untrue.

I'm not versed at all into the Hodge star operator but it feels like Maxwell's equations expressed in both systems[1] might locate the answer. With Hodge star:

dF = 0
d * F = J

Expressed in GA:

∇F = J

The eyeball-difference of which (dF = 0) would be your "how GA then blends all of this together", if I understand correctly. I'd guesstimate that dF = 0 to be akin to Gauss' law; and that maybe GA somewhat incorporates that the curl of a gradient is the zero field.

I don't think strikebreaking is illegal by law in Sweden (but long time I lived in Sweden and was more involved, maybe I remember things wrong or things have changed). But definitely wildly frowned upon, so if the article I linked before is true, then there will be solidarity strikes for sure.
> But you will not lose capital as an employee, since you did not put in capital to lose.

The conversation is a lot more complicated because there's an opportunity cost, you lose time (your time is finite, company time is infinite), you lose reputation, and so on. Besides, your argument is a bit weak as it's not like hedge fund managers put up the cash themselves, either.

My point is only that value-generators should be rewarded as such, and it's a bit weird that engineers are totally cool with not getting a piece of the pie.
Few cities reduced police budgets at all certainly nobody in any meaningful way defunded the police and even cities short of officers have funding for additional officers they lack people far more than money.

Also in case you didn't notice police don't do much to protect normal folks from crime. They'll be there 15 minutes after whatever happened happened to file a report if they aren't too busy screwing with law abiding citizens.

Personally Ive seen little help when needed and plenty of harassment.
This type of “hygiene” is pointless; it does nothing but provide a tiny amount of obscurity, which is easily pierced in other ways.

It’s not hard to figure out what services a company is using, and most of these services requiring verification are so ubiquitous that confirming the knowledge adds no marginal utility to attackers. “Oh wow, this SaaS company has verified with Atlassian and Google, who could have guessed.”

Showing ads to users is a minor aspect of FB's business model. The data collection and shady markets around it are far more lucrative. By charging a subscription they get users to pay them twice: with the actual subscription, and with their personal data like everyone else, which they'll still profit from.

Plus now they get some good PR in Europe, and potentially more users that buy into this marketing tactic. Absolutely evil company.
That's not what that column is supposed to mean afaict. The way I read it is it's showing that if the website requires hundreds of different parallel backend service calls to serve the page load, what's the probability a page load hits the p99 instrumentation latency?

We have a similar chart at my job to illustrate the point that high p99 latency on a backend service doesn't mean only 1% of end-user page loads are affected.
A long time ago, I read a book called Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom.

I am very optimistic about AI.
I think and believe that AI will drastically improve our world and humanity and will be able to solve almost all our problems.

So, AiPlacard is a project that is inspired by this vision.
AiPlacard is an AI tools directory.
You can filter tools by pricing and categories.

Submitting a new tool costs $138. This is a one-time fee for lifetime access.
During submission, you only need to provide us with the URL of your tool. We will handle all the other work required to list your tool in our directory, such as creating a description, selecting an image, and providing pricing information.

I would love to hear your feedback and suggestions on how to make AiPlacard better and more useful for you.

Thank you for your support!
It’s interesting because I found Mech design engineers with green belts to usually be really sharp. I only met like one black belt design engineer and he pivoted careers a decade ago. But most black belts I met in QA were managers. Most of the technicians that did the work weren’t certified but lived and breathed the products for decades.

And serves as a nice counterpoint for "optimizing compilers outperform skilled assembly coders". Regardless of whether that's true or not.
The immediate catalyst was the EU, but this is likely what Apple wanted all along by launching ATT and running all its PR about privacy. Users pay instead of advertisers, and Apple gets its 30%.
No, they were not pathologising it, just explaining (or wondering about) the motivations of some (not all) of them, the fact they were willing to suffer for truth, with no apparent personal gain. And I don't have a link.
If they are going to fire everyone who strikes the rational choice is to find a new job while continuing to work then quit without notice, preferably in mass.

I am completely self taught.

My wife is Korean and I am not. We lived in Korea for 5+ years (but in the USA now). We have two children that speak English and Korean. My Korean comprehension is quite good. We are close to the Korean side of our family and we're surrounded by Korean all the time (even in the USA).

All of that is to give some context for how I learned Korean and what has worked (and didn't work) for me.

What has worked wonderfully:

1. Learn Hangul (Korean alphabet) immediately. You simply cannot learn or study Korean with romanization of any kind.

2. Deliberate textbook study with an emphasis on grammar (for example, Korean Grammar in Use by Darakwon).

3. Learning vocabulary in context of the grammar from #2. For example, take a noun/verb out of a new grammar structure and replace with new ones. Always study in the context of grammar and structure.

4. Listening comprehension through transcription. Given some Korean audio, listen and transcribe what is said in Korean. This certainly helps train your ear to pick up native Korean. Korean you hear from textbook audio is very easy and doesn't help in real life.

What did not work for me:

1. Using Anki to cram words in my head. Sure-- everyone can grab a 2k or 6k deck of words and memorize them, but you won't know how or when to use anything. You also won't be able to recall much of it.

2. Watching drama or reading webtoons. It's tempting to call this "studying" but it's really low bandwidth. What you get out of it is in no way at all related to the amount of time it takes. You'd be better off with 10 minutes and a textbook than a 50 minute drama that takes you 600 minutes to get through looking up words and grammar.

3. The cult/following of "total immersion/no output" which was born out of the Ajatt method of learning Japanese. It's baloney. Sorry if this includes your tool :)
It's hardly THE plot twist in the story when it's just one small segment in the first third of the story.
> Those companies are only at risk of insolvency if their debt is variable rate or has a balloon payment due soon.

Actually, most LBO-type deals are financed with a combination of bank and bond debt. A shocking number of bond deals will be maturing within 1-3 years, and have to be refinanced. The bank debt, senior to the bond issues, is typically variable-rate and (depending on deal size) split into tranches that must be repaid at different schedules over time. Many PE-backed borrowers in recent years decided not to enter into swap contracts to fix their debt rates. My understanding is that things could get ugly quickly if rates don't come down soon.

> Most PE deals would work (with lower returns) without any debt.

Actually, if a deal returns less than the yield on corporate debt of similar risk, then the deal does not work. LP's in the PE fund will correctly view it as a failure. The raison d'être of PE funds is to earn returns above those yields. Moreover, if a portfolio company is already loaded with debt, finding buyers that will pay the old multiples given the new rates will prove difficult, if not impossible -- similar to the situation many US homeowners that locked-in ~2% mortgage rates a few years ago face today: They cannot sell their home at the old valuation because prospective buyers are looking at mortgages that cost ~8%/year. Higher interest rates make it hard to impossible to "exit" at valuations that generate decent returns.
Re: predatory landlords: if they are not breaking the law, are they really blameworthy? Seems like the previous landlord was naïve, or at least operating on an outdated worldview where local reputation mattered. (Hard to show up at the local Chamber or Elks or church when you are getting old folks kicked out of their homes).

How to solve… I’d like to find a model to apply in my HOA to slow or reverse the corporate takeover of my community…
Another not completely inconceivable notion is that Tesla threatened to remove the possibility of getting stock options if the employee participated in any strikes (as reported by SVT https://www.svt.se/nyheter/lokalt/orebro/facket-strejkande-p...), so people feel like it's better for their own interest not to participate in any strikes, as you might lose your job/stock options.

Not a lot of room for negotiating in that case.
I think the explanation for "defund the police" is simpler... they just see the bad stuff cops do on the news, but haven't ever actually needed the cops personally (and few of their friends have too), primarily due to their affluence. There are exceptions, obviously.

Of the people who have obtained a restraining order, I wonder what percentage want to defund the police.
Wiki has a pretty nice article on what went into the sarin attack. [1] A brief quote:

---

"The Satyan-7 facility was declared ready for occupancy by September 1993 with the capacity to produce about 40–50 litres (11–13 US gal) of sarin, being equipped with 30-litre (7.9 US gal) capacity mixing flasks within protective hoods, and eventually employing 100 Aum members; the UN would later estimate the value of the building and its contents at $30 million.[23]

Despite the safety features and often state-of-the-art equipment and practices, the operation of the facility was very unsafe – one analyst would later describe the cult as having a "high degree of book learning, but virtually nothing in the way of technical skill."[24]"

---

All of those hundreds of workers, countless experts working for who knows how many man hours, and just massive scale development culminated in a subway attack carried out on 3 lines, during rush hour. It killed a total of 13 people. Imagine if they just bought a bunch of cars and started running people over.

Many of these things sound absolutely terrifying, but in practice they are not such a threat except when carried out at a military level of scale and development.

No, it's a listing of demonstrated contributions.

Saying someone is right because they are a police officer is an appeal to authority.

Saying someone is relevant because they have worked and made contributions to a field over the course of many years, and have had those findings integrated with the findings of others is a matter of practical management of complexity.

I don't think it's really about explaining quaternions, but more how quaternions are just a special case that arise from this general framework.
The purpose of a system is what it does. All development is promotion driven development, different people can either choose to be clear eyed about this or not and, subsequently, good at it or not.

Your job is the venn diagram intersection of an organized system of rewards and punishments from both inside and outside of the firm intersected with your own goals and aspirations over time. Anything not in this intersection is not a job, it's something else we like to delude ourselves into thinking is a job to preserve our egos.

More specifically, your worry about how distorted incentives lead to poor quality software is not your job unless it is your job to worry about said incentives. People keep hoping to go work for one of the magically sane company where all the incentives are correct and everyone is doing the quote-unquote "right" thing at all times. Such a company does not exist because the very concept is incoherent, every system of possible incentives will come with a different set of tradeoffs and the art of operating a firm is to pick from amongst a bunch of shitty options for the least shitty one.

People who do not accept this will be perpetually unhappy and bitter about how others obtain undeserved success because they simply did the unsporting thing of playing the game they were asked to play. You can either be one of those people or you can receive the radical acceptance of what a job is.
> You pay YouTube to provide you ad-free content

No, I pay YouTube to not show me YouTube ads. Separately, I also pay several content creators for their content without ads. I pay the person showing me ads to stop showing me ads.

> Wouldn't you get upset if Netflix is streaming to you "The Matrix", and in the middle of it there is an advertising for Oreos?

If that ad is a part of the movie as it was shown in theatres or on other streaming services, then no, I wouldn't be upset at Netflix.
It comes from general taxes. But thats the same with nearly all transportation infrastructure, people without cars are paying general funds taxes for roads, since gas taxes do not cover all road funding.

It’s worth noting that the MTA is necessary for car drivers as well. Whenever it gets knocked out due to a hurricane and travelers switch to driving, there is gridlock across the entire region and travel comes to a screeching halt.

The famous "I've learnt my lesson" which means you really reached the same low level of incompetence as everyone but secretly thinking you are more competent than all the others.

The funny thing is that among all those incompetent peoples / idiots mentionned there are probably smart people who just learnt their lesson years/months and adjusted to the weakest links in the chain.

I've never paid for Youtube because it isn't a proper product. It's a hodgepodge network of amateur videos that've been cobbled together into an offering that just barely resembles something you can throw a price tag on.

There's plenty of content o Youtube that's simply stolen from the original creators (home video fail compilations, newsreader bloopers). Yet YT can take a cut of the ad revenue from the tens of millions of view those videos get.
What you think is usually the limit of your experience, which effectively makes it anecdata. I've looked at enough companies and dealt with the aftermath of enough such instances that I beg to differ. It's possible that due to the nature of my business my experience is skewed in the other direction which makes that anecdata as well. But it is probably more important than you think (and less important than I think).

In that industry it makes sense. We were a services platform -- basically a massive, distributed call center.
But a higher net worth due to having equity in a home is not the same as having fully paid off your home. There's just not enough information in such statistics to make such a determination one way or another.

My experience was that the tools are absolutely useful. Green Belts are those who learned the tools, but stayed at their day job. Black Belts are when you pivot into doing it full time.

Much like people who underperform in technical fields often pivot to Management, you see the same in the pivot to Process Improvement. That creates the issue of the lowest performers at the actual job being the ones most inclined to pivot into that position.

There are always good ones (I'm biased, but think I was). The issue is that they are a relative rarity due to those (and I'm sure other) factors.
I would hope that there is more process in place protecting against downtime than code review - for example automated tests across several levels, burn-in testing, etc.

This is very true. I think part of the issue is that there's an element of critical thinking skills that you would hope to eventually acquire _AS_ you continue to listen to any attributed public intellectual. Otherwise you can go your whole life reading Christopher Hitchens from when he was a great rhetorician and contrarian of US foreign policy to his transformation of racist war-mongering anti-theism days.
The writing of this article is a mistake. I don't have anything terribly new to add above and beyond what others have already said, but suffice to say this is a bad article that provides us no insight or meaningful suggestions and demonstrates a lack of experience and understanding throughout the industry.

There is a function many (though not all) software teams need whereby someone understands customer needs, prioritizes them, and translates them into something that can be worked on by developers. We call that role "Product Manager". Do you strictly need an MBA who has some specific certifications to do that? No, of course not. A very strong UX researcher could potentially do it. A very strong engineering lead could potentially do it. But for many products, it requires a significant time investment in understanding the problem space, guiding a UX/UI research/design team iterating through solutions, and documenting it in such a way that a dev team could approach it.

As someone else commented, the article is just "Hiring bad leaders is bad".
I don't disagree. I do have the option, so I took it and it's worked great.
I disagree with the others insofar as I think the weighty-est things Huberman suggests are very well researched, and he's generally careful to say when research is newer/sparser for certain discoveries but doesn't make a broken-record of himself. For instance: his videos focusing on sleep. When it comes to other optimizations YMMV but aggregate marginal gains would suggest that exploring these may add up.

Also these days his video series tends to focus more on interviews with experts in their respective fields, rather than his own prescriptions and perspective. I think that's commendable and great.

> we _can't_ enforce the clear abstractions

Really, you can't? Then I struggle to see how'll get anything else right. I've done it by using separate build scripts. That way only the interfaces and domain objects are exposed in the libraries. Now you lock down at the repository level access to each sub-project to the team working on it. There you go: modularity, boundaries, all without network hops.
