I have no data, but I would hypothesize that the generational advantages do not disappear easily, even if a large chunk of the monetary value does.

Even just looking at from a purely monetary angle: maybe generation two manages to "lose" 70% of a $50 million inheritance. They've still got $15 million to start over with. Even if they lost 95% of the inheritance, they're still on a better financial footing than most with $2.5 million of capital laying around to rebuild themselves from. That's not enough to live like a king and never work, but if you're even remotely smart in managing that amount from somewhere in early to middle adulthood, that's still enough to at least never have a mortgage or worry about college for yourself or your kids. It's enough to start a successful small business or three as well.

But I think there's another angle on this. Even if the kids stupidly lose a lot of the cash, they're still riding on a ton of benefits from their enriched childhood: far better health thanks to a virtually limitless diet of high quality food and great medical care, the best schools and tutors, connection networks to all the other rich kids from their rich neighborhoods and schools, and learning (through osmosis if not explicitly) all about their parents and grandparents lessons of being in executive positions and how to invest wisely and preserve capital, what kinds of lawyers and insurances you should have, etc. Bottom line is they could literally set 100% of the inherited cash on fire and they'd still have a much higher chance of re-becoming wealthy than most.
Just like we built an unsinkable ship.
TXR Lisp:

text
(:method print (me stream pretty-p) (put-string `#<@(typeof me) @{me.text}>` stream))
(:method equal (me) me.text))
#<struct-type word>
2> (new (word "abc"))
#<word abc>
3> (equal *2 "abc")

You wouldn't define a print method for a struct like this, because it's counterproductive. You're throwing away print-read consistency in exchange for no benefit.

I usually define print methods for complex structures with many slots, that are not expected to be externalized. Particularly if they are linked in a graph structure, where (even if you have the circular printing turned on to handle the cycles) the prints get large. You know, you wanted to just print the banana, but it was pointing to a gorilla, and basically a dump of the whole jungle ensued.
And yet many of these same ministers undoubtedly support the EU's recent nth attempts to open encryption backdoors for the most commonly used consumer messaging systems on the continent, arguing that it won't be harmful to security while adding in all the usual "for the children, fighting terrorists" bullshit..

It’s for avoiding federal taxes. The federal government can fix the situation anytime it wants, and it won’t matter where in the US people live.
I will go a step further and argue that all the websites we see today with dropdown menus at the top, a huge header image below it, one blob of disjointed content(?) below that, and finally the footer at the end is(was?) a direct result of the Holy Grail being so difficult to achieve outside of using tables.
> Light rail is ~$27 million/mile and subway is ~$290 million/mile, if you look at the numbers for the latest finished projects in Finland.

Finland is tiny. Even Helsinki is a bit less dense than Seattle, and almost 10 times less dense than Manhattan.

So yep, sparse cities are much cheaper and efficient than dense cities. That's exactly my point. The sparser, the better.
Karl Jaspers, is that you?

Axial Age (also Axis Age,[1] from the German Achsenzeit) is a term coined by the German philosopher Karl Jaspers. It refers to broad changes in religious and philosophical thought that occurred in a variety of locations from about the 8th to the 3rd century BCE.

Not OP, but I too first thought of a state machine. As soon as I started to write it I realized I was over-solving a day-1 problem. So I switched to brute force

If the electromagnetic force changed in some way depending on the gravitational influence then atoms would produce different spectral lines. However, we can observe the spectral lines produced by atoms and molecules in the interstellar medium where the net gravitational force is much weaker. There is no difference between these lines and what we observe in the lab. (Except for certain expected effects from the reduced pressure like reduced Doppler broadening and the appearance of "forbidden" lines.)
Drush (drupal shell) is just a command line interface to any given Drupal site, similar to Laravel's Artisan console, or Django's django-admin & manage.py, or Wordpress's wp-cli. Managing a Drupal site is much simpler when you can do certain things from the cli: run cron tasks, cache rebuild, import/export config, enable/disable modules, use the built-in REPL to troubleshoot stuff, not to mention the various commands that modules expose.
I completely agree with this way of working, and we have the same “protocol” as it were. I check my comms once every one or two hours to see if there is any pressing matters.

So little is actually urgent, unless you have some business critical infrastructure you have to maintain, but that sounds like a different role entirely.
The best societal outcome of remote work is better sorting of talent into higher productivity jobs.

If a company paying big bucks needs some some they get to select from a global talent pool, or at least several time zones.

The best talent gets the best jobs. This is better for both the employees and the employers.

The losers are the under-talented who now must compete with a larger labor pool.
>Steering doesn't really have anything to do with the CV Joints or power to your wheels

When you turn the wheels the axles need to flex somehow around that rotation. This is one of the things CV joints do well: they can handle not just moving up and down, but also the wheel turning left/right. This thing is a bunch of gears and seems to handle only wheels moving up and down and not turning.
Why should one even try anything at all?
I’m not sure you actually read up about South Dakota Dynasty trusts nor the general context from these comments/post.

"consciousness" is a word made up by humans. There's no way someone can make up a word without "knowing" what it means.

If we made up a word and we don't know what it means that means we "chose" not to know what it means. We made up the fact that we don't know. Ultimately all words in the english language are made up by humans.

The concept of consciousness itself doesn't exist. It exists because we made up a word for it. And the concept seems fuzzy because the word was made up and a fuzzy definition for it was chosen.

When you debate what "consciousness" is you are debating the definition of the word. This is not profound. The word is made up, the definition is arbitrarily chosen. You are debating a vocabulary problem what arbitrary definition should be attached to what arbitrary word. You are attempting to refine the fuzzy boundaries of a definition that we as humans already made fuzzy by our own choice.

Take a car and a boat. If I made some vehicle that can both drive on the road and sail on the water, is it a car or a boat? What you're not seeing is that it doesn't matter. It's just a vehicle, but the words "car" and "boat" lock you into this delusional debate that's attempting to classify the car-boat as one or the other. Do you understand? The concept of a car and a boat is poorly defined language influencing the way you think. Whether the vehicle is a car or a boat is meaningless. Same with consciousness.

If you still don't get it. How about this. I'll make up a new concept called Flurmo. Flurmo is something that is 30-40% a car and 60-70% a boat. Now when you debate whether the vehicle is a car or a boat you have to consider whether it's a flurmo as well. Car, boat or flurmo? It's easy to see how flurmo is made up, it's harder to see why car and boat are the SAME thing, they are also words that are made up. And so is consciousness. Consciousness is flurmo.

You stopped reading, because you made a false assumption. You then continued reading on my prompt and you came out with a conclusion based off of you misunderstanding the point. Hopefully you get what I'm saying now.

Can someone explain me how it's syncing the state between two different devices without any activity in the Network tab in DevTools, not even WS traffic?

I get that you can sync state between browser tabs, but I'm trying on two different devices (iPhone and Desktop).

And as far as I can tell, the Wasm layer can't perform network requests directly.

UPDATE: In the console tab I can see 'coordinatorUrl: 'wss://sqlsync.orbitinghail.workers.dev', but I was expecting to see this Websockets connection in the Network tab, and it isn't.
> The idea that everything is just numbers is cynical, delusional, and dehumanizing.

Delusion is thinking you can own numbers.

What does it matter what these silly laws say? They're borderline unenforceable anyway. Imaginary ownership rules are constantly violated world wide at massive scales. Ever saved a photo from a website? Ever shared a picture with someone else? You violated these rules.

And what are they going to do about it? Are they gonna sue everyone? Throw everybody in jail for "disrespecting" their imaginary numeric ownership. What a bunch of bullshit.

It's the 21st century. Better to just accept it and let go.
Hmm. Good point. I don't know anything about cameras
Besides the old/young divide, I think there's the geek/suit, or maker/manager divide.

As a geek, most of my time is spent working alone, even in ill-defined projects that require a lot of coordination and communication. Working from 'home' (more from wherever I want) is better. Also, although I agree that we lose something if we communicate remotely, I don't terribly care. When I communicate, information is more important than emotions. And they want me to work in an open floor office, ugh.

Suits spent most of their time in meetings. They also care much more about the emotions and human touch. They've spent years optimizing for firm handshakes, nice hair, good smiles and that weird clicking noise :).

Basically, suits want the office, geeks don't. Productivity doesn't have much to do with it :)

This is much more of a Rails thing than a Ruby thing, and as someone who loves Ruby, I agree - when I come across code like that it is cringe-inducing.
Can someone help me understand the prof's logic? WFH has dropped to 28% from the early 60% this year, and then flattened. Why did the prof conclude that RTO is dead? Shouldn't the conclusion be that most of the people have returned to office?
It's disguisting how we praise these people and consider them "just like us".
it just comes down to willingness to stop and chat with each other. at a company of sufficient size everyone is in different offices/cities/countries anyways so you'll always hit some sort of odd issue. You just have to be able to control what you can.

For me, being in office would add nothing, because my team is split between two cities, and if i ask a question outside of my team its highly likely we're talking about crossing oceans.

Like anything, its about communication
I expect the bearings wear out before the gears. So just replace the whole thing. Then rebuild it with new gears and bearings later.
> Worth noting, placement at the wheel is somewhat arbitrary

You're suggesting placing the ring-gear in the chassis and running the axle to the wheel? That would involve two reduction gearsets in the chassis instead of the current "one plus a CV gear," which kind of defeats the purpose of reducing chassis space usage.

> The gears will be turning at a large multiple of wheel speed, so will require roller bearings except for low power and speed use: a radial and thrust bearing for each end of each gear, or 22 of each per wheel. Increasing torque also increases the level of thrust support required for the moving gear carriers handling all of those helical gears.

I imagine the final product would use herringbone gears, since the large number of thrust bearings would all add to unsprung weight.
Apparently he improved the conclusion in his second book.

In the first one it was bittersweet as he only stuck to historical evidences and what he found was that the only periods of decreasing economic inequalities were wars.
Historically, in the UK, Australia, and other countries, "one billion" meant "one million million" (i.e. 1,000,000,000,000). Officially, at least in the UK, it now means the same as the US (i.e. 1,000,000,000)
> Have you worked in startups though? Organizations of 1-20 people where the whole company doesn't know who its customers are, why they would buy the product, or how to make money?

That sounds like an amazingly poorly run startup with horrible leadership.

The startups that I've seen that are successful purposefully try to fix that problem. We flew people out to customers, had them shadow them to see how they worked, and had a group of customer advisors. Out of all the startups I've been involved with the remote ones have done the best.

Honestly, the manager you're describing is incompetent. Why is that manager relying on reading body language instead of building enough trust with their engineers where the engineers would just say "that's impossible?". It seems like that manager is doing a poor job and is using remote work as an excuse for their own lack of ability.

Drupal 7 is gonna haunt us forever... I was working on it as late as 2021-22, and even then it kept getting extended: https://www.drupal.org/psa-2023-06-07

> On February 23, 2022, we announced that we would be extending the End-of-Life for Drupal 7 until at least November 1, 2023. Today, we are officially announcing that Drupal 7 will reach its end of life on January 5, 2025.

There's also a whole cottage industry of Drupal 7 vendors/consultants who will provide support past end-of-life, or help you migrate to 9.

I think it's a double-whammy because the kinds of organization drawn to something like Drupal (a powerful all-in-one monolith) are inevitably the same orgs who put everything into it and never want to care about maintaining or upgrading it afterward. They're in for a WORLD of hurt if they want to move to 8+... there's no upgrade path, it's just a rewrite.
That's not a hard problem for an honest researcher. Just explain the risk of that data point in the grant application and if the funders decide not to take the risk, that's their perogative.

There are two separate concerns here:

- increases in material standards of living

- decreases in class mobility and increased concentration of social power

It is perfectly coherent to appreciate one and condemn the other. The parent comment seems to focus on the latter.
You can also explore things you're terrible at. Just being able to afford to do them and promote yourself gives you a huge advantage over other people in those fields.

There are a lot of these people in the arts. Some are quite well known.

This kind of inherited wealth is hugely distorting emotionally and psychologically. In fact any significant fame is, because you lose touch with ordinary concerns. You're more likely to surround yourself with yes people - not just because they fluff you, but because they feel like a known and (somewhat) trustworthy quantity.

When there are huge numbers involved you can only really spend time with people who have similar resources.

This complete disconnect is incredibly corrosive.

What is a typesetter?

Yeah you can subscribe to overall changes to the data on a row by row basis but can't subscribe to an actual query. Many apps and libraries imitate reactive queries by just refetching all queries from Postgres when any data changes or just repeatedly polling the query every 10 seconds or so but this puts a lot of strain on the database. You can just subscribe to the replication stream but then you're left trying to reconstruct your queries in your application code which is extremely error prone and painful
I heard the question was difficult before solving it, and then I was surprised when I didn't hit any speed bumps. The overlapping case didn't even occur to me. It turns out I stumbled upon a simple solution: use two regexes. One to match the first digit, and one to match the last. Then the overlapping is a total non-issue.
It's reducing readability by introducing extra methods you have to chase down where the method content is just as clear as the method names themselves. If there are multiple clients that might use those individual methods then maybe some of it is excusable. Personally I'd refuse to accept a commit like that if reviewing that code.
