The low birth rate is a macro phenomena in response to massive population boom and limits to growth, a significant one being living space.

Packing even more people into these nations, with the added political tensions of making them foreign immigrants vs domestic growth of native population would exacerbate the original problem with added downside.

Look at the density, cost of living and other factors that flow from "too many people in one place". The natural counter trend must run its course.

Is Stripe revealing this address to customers?

This page only says a business address must be provided, not that it will be revealed to customers.

If you have a business, you already have a business address and you're paying taxes somewhere. Why can't you use that address?

> Suddenly if my business exists at my home address, my city wants a local business license and zoning compliance permit, so they can inspect the non-existent physical location and be sure the zero traffic it is generating isn't causing a burden on my neighbors

What country are you in? Do you have any examples of this happening, or is this just a hypothetical you came up with?

Regardless, if your business is registered and you're paying taxes then, again, there's already an address associated with it. Stripe verifying this address isn't going to send local inspectors to your home.

Baryshnikov & Ghrist, Target Enumeration Via Euler Characteristic Integrals (2009)

> We solve the problem of counting the total number of observable targets (e.g., persons, vehicles, landmarks) in a region using local counts performed by a network of sensors, each of which measures the number of targets nearby but neither their identities nor any positional information. We formulate and solve several such problems based on the types of sensors and mobility of the targets.

There is a services-flake module allowing you to spin the entire nammayatri stack (including postgres, redis, etc.) using a flake app. Similarly, there's one for running load test, which is also run in Jenkins CI.

I've read both the linked article (which was great) and the Wikipedia entry for Sacred Harp. But, I still don't quite understand how this works. That's probably because I have no understanding of musical theory and couldn't read any form of sheet music anyway. With that said, my question is: what is lost as a result of using this notation? I can see what's gained: simplicity and ease of learning. But why wouldn't you use this notation for every form of singing?

I wonder how temperature is measured for an object this far away. If it's calculated based on the expected energy absorption of a planet with this level of reflectivity, the measurement would be wrong anyway, assuming alien tech.

Instead of the energy being absorbed as heat by the planet, it'd instead be stored in some other form or used for interstellar travel, construction etc, right?

This sort of breakdown also reminds me of the explanation of why busy beavers grow faster than anything humans can ever define. Anything a human can define is a finite number of steps that can be represented by some turing machine of size M. A turning machine of size N > M can then use M as a subset of it, growing faster than than the turing machine of size M. Either it is the busy beaver for size N, or it grows slower than the busy beaver for size N. Either way, the busy beaver for size N grows faster than whatever the human defined that was captured by the turning machine of size M. This explanation was what helped me understand why busy beavers is faster growing than any operator that can be formally defined (obviously you can define an operator that references busy beaver itself, but busy beaver can be considered to not be formally defined, and thus any operator defined used it isn't formally defined either).

The bit about floating point numbers just being a collection of bits interpreted in a certain way helps make sense why a bigger model doesn't need floating points at all.

The report gets it wrong. C and C++ can both be made memory safe with small changes. The cost of doing that is likely to be lower than the cost of either deploying CHERI or rewriting in Rust. And, the protections are likely to be stronger than what CHERI offers (CHERI tries really hard to just let existing C code do whatever the heck it does).

There's a ton of literature on ways to make C/C++ safe. I think that the only reason why that path isn't being explored more is that it's the "less fun" option - it doesn't involve blue sky thoughts about new hardware or new languages.

It's funny that Google's response here is to frame this in terms of bias. Presumably bias against whites.

In my jurisdiction, and I suppose many others, a business must provide a physical address in order to incorporate, known as the registered address.

This does not have to be the place of business but is to ensure that legal documents may be served and other official letters delivered.

There are many services offering virtual office addresses for this.

It is not a problem. In fact, would you go into business with a company that has no address?
Scalability is a bit of an issue, but a biological weapon like weaponized anthrax or chemical weapon like a powder that converts to 4highly effective nerve gas could conceivably delivered by methods similar to the nuclear triad. Strategic bombers could airdrop them over population centers, and with enough engineering we could probably make ballistic missiles with payloads that disperse such agents in an air burst, using a small amount of explosives to scatter it over an area the size of Manhattan

Those are fine words. We're all about critical thinking and analysis

And the judges said, "sorry the law that applies to you doesn't apply

> But these exchanges don't do gold do they? I thought that was only real money besides bitcoin?

I think some do gold and are using these old companies in Switzerland holding gold for people in vaults, with proof of reserves (contrarily to the gold "it's there we swear but we refuse an audit" inside Fort Knox).

Nothing stops you from selling physical gold for USD (or EUR or whatever), sending that money to Coinbase, buying Bitcoin.

I don't think people are disputing that USD/EUR are used to pay taxes and to buy everyday thing. What some people are disputing is the value of USD/EUR in the face of ever more indebted states and ever more money printed.

The goal is not to never use USD/EUR: the goal is to never be exposed to these for too long. At the very least you'd want yield on your USD/EUR countering inflation (and for that it's not sufficient to "keep your USD at the bank").

There have been many wars since 1945, and also since the development of this so-called "peacekeeper." Its existence is not doing a great job of keeping general peace.

The only thing nuclear weapons seem to do is ensure their owners are always the aggressors in war and not defenders. Nobody wants to attack a country with nuclear weapons, so it enables them to pick and choose which wars to start.

Yeah, specifically, the definition of optimal provided - radix economy. There are plenty of other considerations one could make in other contexts. Practically, a transcendental base seems... rather impractical. And base 2 is not so much 'more optimal' than base 3 to warrant the electrical complexity probably, for example.

This is correct. I have an extremely rare leukemia <1 in 100k, and as said above, the only cure is allogenic marrow transplant. To put it bluntly, survival is at best a 2/3 dice roll - and that's if you're diagnosed before 40.

I suppose my concern is the sheer drop in fertility either is imposing or will soon impose significant burdens on all men and women. Especially as we rapidly approach the point where GLOBAL fertility is below replacement so replacement migration won’t be an option to bail us out. It’s not even the fact that the population is going down that concerns me as much as how fast that it’s happening.

I think this problem threatens democracy and liberalism. If a country like North Korea can maintain twice the fertility as the South, having double the workforce and number of intellectuals is going to allow it to catch up quick.

If SK’s TFR was say 1.22 instead of 0.89 you end up with a 37% larger workforce and only need to convince 1 in 3 women to have an extra child. There’s more enough women who would WANT to have children if it were less of a burden.
