Ask HN: Are you worried about the US dollar collapse?
Given the enormous US government debt conservatively estimated at $37T and annual revenues of $1.86T, it seems like we are on the precipice of a debt spiral. And yet everywhere I look it seems like business as usual.

It's hard to find credible reading to learn about all of this and how the situation is expected to reconcile.

Are you worried? What do you think it doing to happen? Is there any reading you can recommend? What are you doing to financially protect yourself?

The basic problem here seems to be that a phony can be a phony in multiple ways at more or less the same time, but people who do things seriously spend a lot of time doing only those things, instead of consuming and thereby increasing GDP?

My immediate plan for reducing lock-in is to provide the option to deploy into a cloud account you manage. This has the upside of making your deployed infrastructure independent of Celest and letting you use your cloud credits.

you stand out by finding ever more extreme beliefs and figuring out ways to present and explain said extreme beliefs in more palatable ways. you also must find ever more extreme examples of what "the enemy" is saying and doing to justify your extremity (whether said examples are totally out of context or totally made up is not important).

I recently saw a video that had been making rounds on truth social about how it's totally normal and acceptable that only men should vote. since the man is simply "representing" the family. just like we have representatives in a republic. thinking that everyone should vote is just a liberal, commie, Marxist idea.

>4. Libsystemd is a problem for the ecosystem. People get dismissed as systemd haters for pointing this out but it's big, complicated, has a lot of dependencies and most programs use a tiny fraction of it. Encouraging every service to depend on it for initialization notifications is insane.

This is ridiculous, nobody "encourages" every service to depend on it for initialization notifications, you can implement the logic in 10 lines of code or less.
It comes from the idea that your computer shouldn't stop working at random.

But surely, what is needed is "interfaces can never be changed without redefining your project in a way that makes absolutely obvious it's incompatible with its past". Systemd fails that one too.

It must be noted that science is not a single entity, and with nutrition, different sciences will have opposing views. For example, the ketogenic diet has been used in medicinal contexts for more than a century. Longevity research is heavily focused on insulin, making ketogenic diets of interest even when used cyclically.
Science doesn't support keto as an optimal diet for most cases, which I wouldn't call a weird stigma.

In fairness, the spike in cholesterol is a legit piece of data to be concerned about. But then again, there's other data that supports the idea that the higher cholesterol is an adaptation which doesn't increase the risk of heart disease.

But if you say consciousness is "a specific evolved mechanism, and like the eye, has probably convergently evolved to serve different purposes" then you must have some notion what this mechanism is and what it's purpose is so you can say, "See, here is consciousness. It helps this organism achieve the expected purpose." I think this is what NoMoreNicksLeft is getting at.

I believe the typical (mis)understanding proceeds like so: "I am conscious. I not only know things, but I have a sensation of knowing them. This (computer/animal) reacts to things in such a way that it demonstrably knows them in some sense, but it has no sensation of knowing them. Now what is this wonderful thing that distinguishes me from it? How did it come to be? What purpose does it serve?"

One purpose the concept of consciousness serves is that it gives a special ethical status to its possessor. The conscious being needs to care about other conscious beings but can treat those beings without consciousness as tools or resources.

> Raising the price so high that demand disappears is not a way to alleviate a shortage.

Then this must mean that there is a shortage of jets? I most definitely am not paying that high price – you presumably aren't paying that high price – the price of jets is so high that demand has disappeared from almost all people. I'd certainly buy one if they were significantly cheaper. Who wouldn't? But at the prevailing price, no way.

Does that differ from a $1 plastic trinket? I'd take a plastic trinket if it were free, but for $1 my demand is lost. I'd rather spend $1 on something else. I guess that means the plastic trinket is also in shortage since I have decided not to buy due to the price tag being too high? And not just me. The average run for a plastic trinket is around 25,000 units, so we know demand disappears by the vast majority of people at the high price of $1.

What's not in shortage? Even literal garbage will see an increase in demand if the price goes low (negative) enough.

> If 95% of the houses in the world disappeared overnight, that would cause an extreme housing shortage

Agreed. The nature of lag would ensure that price could not react in a timely manner to such an extreme event. Eventually correction could take place, but a shortage would ensue for a period of time.

> "Shortage" is not a niche word that only applies when supply and demand has been prevented.

What on earth does "supply and demand being prevented" mean? You cannot prevent supply and demand. It's not a thing that can be manipulated, it's just the observation of humans (and sometimes animals!) interacting with each other in the face of scarcity.

> "If I give a three minute explanation, and also a 20 second summary, the summary added absolutely nothing."

Well, then, let's reverse it: "Housing, there is a shortage" and "Housing, there is not a shortage". What did I learn from those statements? We will assume I didn't learn that price is able to rise in one case and not in the other. But there is nothing else I can possibly learn from that. It doesn't say anything.

If I read you correctly, I am of the understanding you intend it to mean that housing costs more/less than some "reasonable" number range you've randomly come up with, but as you have not communicated the range held in your mind, it leaves me with nothing. The only way that can work is for you tell me the range, but once you've done that, "shortage" doesn't add anything. Why would you include it?

That's a good question on where to start. I usually enjoy playing games from the classic series because they're simple, but some of the earlier ones can be a bit janky and punishing. The first 6 games are on NES, and they're all pretty good. Mega Man 2 is a lot of people's favorite, and I personally like it a lot but it's not without flaws and some unfair difficulty. 7 was for SNES and I don't care for it much but I wouldn't say it's bad. Same with 8 which was on PlayStation and Dreamcast. 9 and 10 were a throwback to the classic series with an 8-bit art style and can be difficult but they have more modern design sensibilities and I'd say are more "fair". 10 has an easy mode if you're wanting to ease yourself in too. 11 is pretty good too, but has some new mechanics that complicate things a bit.

The X series has some good games, but focuses more on collectibles and upgrades, so you'll likely end up looking up a guide to find where all the upgrades are. It can be very difficult without them. I think X1 is the best in the series, and is also more streamlined than the other games. You can't go too wrong with the first 4 X games. They can be played on the Legacy Collection, but I've heard complaints about the emulation, and I know on the PC version I couldn't watch any of the cutscenes in X4 because they froze. Might be better off just emulating.

Order doesn't matter too much, the plots are mostly disjointed and/or nonsense until the Zero series for GameBoy Advance which are again pretty good but upgrade-focused like the X series, and are less of traditional Mega Man games.

I'd probably just not start with Mega Man 1. Come back to it if you like the series, but it's pretty primitive compared to later stuff.
From the public seat, those exploits are the only thing he managed, and hardly matters a couple of device generations later.

A TC39 Proposal for Signals
This doesn't point in the direction you are suggesting.

Imagine we had a pill that prevented lung cancer risk from smoking cigarettes. Would we say that preferring fresh air over cigarette smoke is "a fad, promoted as a cure-all for everything, its adherents have a near-religious devotion to it" just because we could now eliminate one of the many severe consequences of smoking?

When we know something has several adverse effects, it's not a "fad" or "near-religious devotion" to want to avoid it, even if some of those adverse effects can be mitigated with medications.

That's even putting aside the likelihood of other consequences from those medications, especially when many are combined, as they often end up being.

No, I just provided more examples as requested in an attempt to reduce confusion over which parts of the ecosystem are actually providing security. Apple app store is plagued by malicious apps as much as any other place on the internet, but what's making the difference - why these malicious apps are primarily engaging in ad fraud rather than stealing all of your personal data, is OS-level security.

All Apple can do is revoke app certificates and pull the app from the store after someone else discovers their malicious nature. That's a very low bar that can be met by nearly every app store in existence and it would be a reasonable security requirement for anyone who's operating an alternative app store on iOS.

The rest of it is just theater as there's no security-focused special sauce that Apple is providing in this area, despite prevailing beliefs. This is further demonstrated by their acceptance of an obvious impersonator like "LassPass".

Actually, IMO, the stigma comes from the over-commercialization, lack of reliable [mass] information, and "silver bullet" preaching in regards to Keto.

> Early treatment of cancer is not always better

Sure, nothing is always better. If an intervention is statistically not better, then we will not be doing that kind of thing in the future. Better data will lead to better treatment, as will continued research.

But statistically early treatment will always end up being better. There is no theoretical situation in which having less time to systematically change an outcome will beat having more time.
