To me the core idea is just keep a double entry ledger. This not only helps you observe all your transactions and their cost centers, but it allows you to put long term spending habits into perspective. To your point, it allows you to correctly measure the value of your recurring expenses, and it gives you the confidence necessary to spend strategically.

Because they're counting spending, not consumption. This is incidentally why house prices are not directly included in the CPI basket of goods: neither the purchase price of a house, nor the monthly payments are what people consume (= used up) in housing per year.

> Sure, but after people stop working it's common for them to replace their working income with Social Security, other pensions, and withdrawals from retirement accounts in which their savings compounded over time.

Agreed, but there was no room for savings in your model as you used the whole income as spending (median income * 60 years). Taxes makes a big difference too since it doesn't count as spending. E.g. someone that earns 55K$, pays 25K$ in taxes and saves 10K$, only spends 20K$ per year, amounting to 1.2M$ (20K$ * 60 years).
I would be more interested in the median.

Also note that, as a back of the envelope calculation, $15/hour x 40hour/week x 52week/year x 40years = $1.248M.

I wondered if you were implementing a normalization (which is complicated), but that doesn't seem the case? I have read the PR and it's clear that it solves multiple issues at once: no start-continue distinction (bug), a code generator, the table itself (which is just an inefficiently formatted block of data). 6000 lines of code just for Unicode identifiers are simply an exaggeration.

This. If you follow GamersNexus, there are stories every month about just how much the Arc drivers have improved. If this rate continues and the next-gen hardware (Battlemage) actually ships, then Intel might be a serious contender for the midrange. I really hope Intel sticks with it this time as we all know it takes monumental effort to enter the discrete GPU market.

----

Offering payment to an individual or entity to cease an activity they should not be engaging in can introduce several disadvantages and potential legal complexities compared to a standard cease and desist letter. Here are some considerations:

- Precedent for Payment: Offering payment for the cessation of an infringing activity could set an unwanted precedent. It suggests that compliance with the law is negotiable and can be bought, potentially encouraging the same or other parties to infringe in the future with the expectation of receiving payment to stop.

- Admission of Weakness: Offering money might be interpreted as a sign that you are not confident in the legal strength of your claim. This could embolden the infringer or weaken your position in any subsequent legal proceedings.

- Contractual Obligation: If the other party accepts the offer, it creates a contractual agreement. If the infringer accepts the payment but continues the activity, or if there's a disagreement over whether the activity has ceased, you may have to engage in contract enforcement rather than straightforward infringement litigation, which could complicate matters.

- Tax and Financial Implications: The payment could have tax implications for both parties and might also affect the financial statements of a company if either party is a business.

- Mitigation of Harm: Paying the infringer doesn't address any harm that has already occurred. A cease and desist letter often includes demands for remedies or damages for past infringement, which would not typically be covered by a simple payment to stop the activity.

- Negotiation Power: Once you've put a monetary offer on the table, it can be difficult to withdraw or reduce that offer without weakening your negotiating position.

- Legal Interpretation: The offer of payment might be interpreted by the court as an acknowledgment that the infringed party is aware that their rights are not clear-cut or may even lack merit, thereby potentially undermining the legal basis for their claim.

- Public Perception: If the offer and its acceptance become public, it might be seen as a company or individual buying their way out of a legal dispute, which could affect public perception or brand reputation.

- Binding Effect: If the offer is accepted, the agreement may prevent you from pursuing legal action for any past infringement, depending on the terms of the agreement.
> I think it's more likely that GCP, unlike the rest of google, is more of an amalgamation of many corporate cultures, (both good and bad).

You don't understand why people fear the culture changing to something else? Most people there like the Google work culture, of course they would fear the culture becoming more like Microsoft or Oracle.

When I worked at Google I had no deadlines, full control over what I do during my work days, full ability to prioritize different projects or help people get things done if they ask etc. If that suddenly changed it would feel horrible, as you can understand, if you are used to a typical work culture maybe you don't see it but if you are used to the typical Google one they at least had before then it is a massive owngrade.

> While migrants can’t vote in national elections, they are counted in the census

Much like prisoners and legal non-citizen residents.

> Secondly, the children of illegal immigrants are citizens and can vote.

People born in the US - children of citizens, of legal residents, and of undocumented are all citizens because that's the only how the colonies justified their right to govern the territory they colonized. If you remove birthright citizenship the overwhelming majority of people in the US would not have any right to citizenship, and in fact most "illegal immigrants" would have a much stronger claim to governance and/or citizenship than pretty much every other group.

The fact that some people now find it inconvenient that the rules that were helpful to them now help a different group is irrelevant to that.

Moreover arguing that illegal immigrants are human (let's be clear here, the DNC is anti-immigrants as well, Obama deported more people than bush or trump), is not the same as being "pro-illegal immigrant".

You could make the same argument that conservative states weakening penalties for assault, removing women's bodily autonomy, fighting against actual sex ed, defunding education, etc are similarly a grand plan to increase the representation for conservative states.

I'm a little confused with your logic here. You're saying that businesses are looking for these allegedly rare skill sets, which do exist in the US but only at excessively high wages (your "$1M / mo" hypothetical/exaggeration). So the solution is to bring in H1Bs and pay them less (or what's affordable for the company).

How does this not, by definition, depress what would otherwise be the prevailing wage for these "rare" skill sets in the US?

Man I've felt this for YEARS and I feel like I'm taking crazy pills with all the youtubers and influencers proclaiming Apple's Connected Ecosystem as such as productivity advantage.

Either you can't sign in with your personal Apple account, or you shouldn't (because MDM). So the only way to access anything associated with iCloud is what is available on the iCloud web portal; which is a horrible experience. You can't do sidecar. You can't do airdrop, copy-paste, continuity camera, nothing.

I've only ever used Macs in a professional environment. I've, also, always had a Mac and iPhone as personal devices. But I've never made the jump toward saying "Ok I'm actually using iCloud Seriously now" for this single reason. The best Google Cloud experience is available in a web browser, which I can be signed-in to on everything. Google Drive is everywhere. The list goes on.

Its such a crystalline example of why Apple's walled garden actually hurts themselves.

I would be interested in reading any papers or studies that support that statement. Because of where I live I happen to know quite a few people who are in the "upper 10%" some probably better than that, and pretty much they universally spend more on maintaining one or more additional real properties, a plane or boat with its maintenance, and generally many more days out of the year travelling and paying for hotels/meals etc than what I consider "average". Sure they shop at the same grocery stores as everyone else, and they don't necessarily spend any more on those groceries, but they do eat out more and at places that I would not consider "budget". In general, their lifestyle has a higher "burn rate" than people for whom such an expenditure rate would result in a rapid decline of their net worth.

But the problem with the original article (which was pointed out elsewhere that the number could be arrived at by multiplying the median salary of $55K by 60 years, is that without the methodology by which they reached the number, and statistics that better describe the "shape" of the data set, its kind of hard to take anything away from the statement of "$3.3M on average" that is at all meaningful.

I gave the University two weeks notice, and finished teaching my course for that semester pro-bono.
> I'm sure you know that democracies, in reality, actually have rule of law and universal rights.

"Democracies", in reality, are usually some sort of representative constitutional republic that contains deliberately anti-democratic elements (an unelected judiciary, for example). Pure mob rule doesn't work, so in practice it's always diluted.

> Maybe it will be different this time, but that's a huge risk to take.

It is a risk, I agree. All regime changes are risky, as power inevitably ends up concentrated in one person or small group for at least a short period, so a lot ends up riding on their personal competence and morals. So far this one is working out extremely well, hopefully the trend will continue.

My recollection was that it was essentially company A would decide they wanted to employ person X, and they would then go to contracting firms 1 through 100 and get all of them to apply for the same person X. And they could use the contracting company model to then deflate the salary for the h1-b recipient by having the wage comparison be to similar (below real market rate) contracting company jobs rather than the employees they would be working with.

One unfortunate note on Nvidia data center GPUs is to fully utilize features such as vgpu and multi-instance GPU, there is an ongoing licensing fee for the drivers.

It's unfortunate that it can't be used on planes yet, then. I saw a video where someone tried it, and apps were just left behind in space by the airplane's movement. It makes sense why this would be the case, but it also should be obvious that if you're in a sealed room, apps you open into the room shouldn't fall through the room if it's moving.

Exactly. Pretty much every argument I see against removing parking boils down to 'The city gets denser with more nice things to the point I can't drive my SUV there any more!' A lack of parking is a symptom of a thriving location, not a problem. A real solution is more transit and more transit oriented development. Removing parking is a start through.

As said by another commenter above [1], the iPhone 15 Pro can shoot spatial videos that can be viewed on Vision Pro. When the Vision Pro was announced, Apple was its typical self by not revealing anything about another future product (plus, the iPhone is its flagship, and Apple likes to keep the excitement coming from its actual announcement). Shooting spatial videos will be a standard feature on all iPhones in a couple of years. It will stay if the Vision product range continues to do well enough while Apple iterates and figures out the product positioning (Apple is generally good at these things). If it doesn’t work out well enough for Apple’s satisfaction, this will go the way of 3D Touch on some older iPhones. Nevertheless, the technology in it will continue to push its other products — existing and forthcoming, and vice versa.

If you're going to yell at someone, at least do your own calculation so you can prove they're wrong first, please?

Total Sky Area=4π×(2π360)^2×60^2 = 148,510,660 square arcminutes (you can also look this up easily)

NIRCam has 9.7 square arcminutes FOV (Yes, I double checked this)

NIRCam resolution is 2048 × 2048 x 2 modules for 2.4–5.0 µm (there are lots of different cameras and modules you could look at to make this estimate, but for a sense of magnitude this will work. If you looked at 0.6–2.3 µm that would be roughly 4x as many pixels for the 8 modules, I think? Again, napkin math for fun.)

Total FoVs Needed = 148,510,660.8 / 9.7 ≈ 15,310,377 FoVs

Total Pixels = (2048×2048×2)×15,310,377 ≈ 128,432,754,096,706 pixels

LLMs used to be quite awful at math. Now they're solving quite complicated problems with sophisticated plugins. This is a simple and straightforward calculation, just getting the FOV and its resolution and then projecting that onto a sphere. And, yes, I probably should have posted the full calculation, it's definitely more interesting to see it all written out.
That’s a double edge sword though. Were they to make it 180°, we would critique it for spreading the precious pixels. “With those 4K your virtual monitor is 1080p at most!”
