That's not entirely correct- or at least, it's more complicated than that. The question of whether a debit/credit increases/decreases an account has to do with the kind of account you're talking about.

When I deposit money, it modifies two accounts at the bank:

- the account which represents how much money they owe me
- and the account which represents how much money they have on hand.

The former is a liability, and the latter is an asset.

The meaning of debit/credit is reversed between these two types of account. So, when I deposit $100, the entries entered are:

- CREDIT mhink's account $100 (increasing liability)
- DEBIT cash account $100 (increasing asset)

Since we only see one side of this, we start to associate "debit" with "less money for me" and "credit" as "more money for me".

Oddly enough, another common financial situation reinforces this interpretation from the other direction: accounts with utility providers. Unlike the bank, your account at the utility company represents how much you owe them. So the meaning of debit/credit is reversed, but so is the direction of responsibility: your account at the utility provider is money you owe them, which is an asset. So when I pay them $100, the entries entered are:

- CREDIT mhink's account $100 (decreasing asset)
- DEBIT cash on hand $100 (increasing asset)

Wow, interesting.

Which Kobo model would you recommend for both reading and creating notes that can be saved as text?

I am considering getting one for my software development work, so that I can read on the go, while sitting, or in bed, and also jot down short and medium length notes about my project ideas, during my daily walk (in the rest break).

Walking helps me to think better.

A laptop is too heavy to carry around everywhere, and particularly when walking.

So if we are happy with criminality to “sidestep regulation” how would you feel about squatting vacant homes?

Netherlands had this problem in the 60s and the solution came in the form of a squatting movement.

I feel in the US people are ok with corporations committing crimes but not humans. Weird seeing as the humans are the ones without a home and the corporations are just trying to get rich.

I replied to you before the parent was edited.

I think we are pretty on the same page regarding regulations. Safety is important. But forbidding density via setbacks, parking minimums, and certain types of housing is what bites us. And there are some regulations enacted in the name of.safety, which create nonstandard requirements where a prefab home factory must either special case that one state/locality, or forbid selling there.

As an example, any factory-manufactured home sold in California must have a sprinkler system. Sprinkler systems are expensive, and while they're very valuable in large shared buildings, I question whether they are necessary to mandate in single family homes.

Of course this isn't targeted at manufactured homes; California mandates this in every new house.

But this fragments the manufacturing of homes and causes issues with getting the efficiencies you would expect from a factory. Multiple SKUs need to be built.
The simplest technique, and the one I currently use, is just "(n+bad)/(n+good)" where n is basically the strength of a prior belief that bad/good = 1. At some level I think this might replicate TF-IDF[1] but I haven't sat down to prove it or find where they diverge.

Speaking of time..
I get it though, it's a nightmare getting a project through approvals so by the time you have an issue big enough to push an overhaul through it's a major project and you want to pile as many things onto it as possible because it might be a decade before you get another decent funding injection to do what should be regular maintenance.
A huge factor in my personal experience is the quality of care at the hospital. Many hospitals in more remote locations have poor care. Sometimes it's that doctors who can't get the higher paying jobs at the big hospitals go there, and the facilities have lower budgets for many things. I've had family in the medical field who have worked all over the world and have stated that a few specific hospitals serving rural areas are only slightly better than some of the 3rd world hospitals they've seen. They might be bigger or fancier, but the quality of care is poor and the rate of mistakes are high.
You make a very good point. It's a clumsy catch-all and lazy of me.

One could very well say;

unacceptable face of greed

unacceptable face of idolatry (money)

unacceptable face of exploitation

unacceptable face of dehumanisation

unacceptable face of power inequality

Capitalism contains all of these, plus an unparalleled ability to
create wealth, growth and innovation. For whatever reasons we weight
these last qualities over and above the downsides.

So I hesitate. Should I use "capitalism" as a shortcut for all the bad
things... or not be lazy and list them fully. Sadly we live in the age
of efficiency.

As for "intellectual property" (perhaps the laziest of all catch-alls
to kludge together a bunch of unrelated concepts); One could not just
as well "argue these laws are unacceptable face of democracy" because
they were never created "under democracy". Sure they persist under
democracy, but mainly because they are extremely hard to dismantle.
And other than the Pirate Party I am unaware of a political group in
recent history that has ever made it a policy point.

In fact they come from a lineage of censorship laws that were created
under conditions of extraordinary tyranny in the seventeenth century
that involved the public burning alive of dissident
publishers. Eventually the Statute of Ann consolidated these twice
repealed and resurrected laws into a notionally "legitimate"
Copyright. Anyway you can read all about that in any honest history
of English law like Lessig's.

What we're left with in 2024 is a set of almost insoluble power
relations that can probably never be reformed in law. They will have
to be over-run by de-facto progress. Much as I dislike many aspects of
"AI" it is at least a fundamental challenge to the absurdity of
"intellectual property" and may have the power to clear away much of
what is rotten. That's why I wrote [0]

Jumping in to say I think it's important to try to control the incentives around how many empty units are "too many" empty units.

Having a tenant comes with cost and risk. Why charge 1200 for 100 apartments when you can charge 3500 for 34 apartments? Maybe even 3000 is still just as profitable

Every extra 100 you charge an existing tenant is pure profit, while reducing price to take on more tenants means more maintenance costs, managing staff costs, etc.

In an economic vacuum this may work itself out, but IF there is a widening wage gap where the you have 30 tenants who can afford up to 4500 a month and you have to drop the price, and then the next 50 potential tenants can only afford up to 1800.. there is financial incentive to squeeze more and more out of the 30 year after year rather than try to accommodate all 80.

Hopefully I'm painting the picture properly

My experience with kickboxing has been extremely positive. I started at age 38 with no prior MA experience. In my gym there is more focus on general fitness, strength, flexibility and technique than on actual fighting.

When we spar, it's always in full padding, and either points fighting or light contact continuous sparring. It's about tagging or outmanoeuvring the opponent, rather than hurting or defeating them. Except for a bruised rib I never had any injuries, training twice a week for over two years.

I recommend finding a gym where you train with people in your age group. It's difficult training with a bunch of teenagers who recover quickly and don't care about bruises, when you're the only one aching the next day and having to drop off kids and see clients.

I think that there are two assumptions that we tend to make that causes the idea of air drying frozen clothes to be unintuitive:

1. We don't expect solids to evaporate, because it's not something we notice often (though if you think about the fact that a few inches of snow can disappear in a couple of days while the temperature remains below zero Celsius, you suddenly realize that you do observe it if you live in a cold climate)

2. We're so accustomed to using heat to speed the evaporation of water. So we might assume that removing large amounts of heat energy will "stop" evaporation. Or at least cause it to slow so much that air drying becomes impractical.

But ice does, indeed evaporate (to be accurate, it sublimates). My question is how temperature affects the speed of evaporation at low temperatures. How long do you need to leave your wet clothes hanging below freezing before they are dry?

https://phys.org/news/2018-10-sublimation-solid-ice-quickly-...
If your room has already high humidity level water does evaporate really slow and the next day you get smelly clothes.

I have this same problem with cars like the Honda Fit, where you can't immediately abort a signal because the minimum number of blinks allowed by the system is greater than 1. Far longer than it takes to realise you were about to turn too soon, or attempt a merge at a wrong exit.

The excessive minimum-blinks usually causes me to try moving the lever farther or jiggle it because "off" didn't seem to mean __off__, with the frequent result that the opposite side's turn signal engages, probably confusing other drivers.

Supposedly, this is a Feature, so that a brief flick of the control allows sending a preset number of blinks to other drivers. Myself, I think "off" should mean OFF.
The comments in the article discuss the pricing.

Looking into it a bit myself, it seems you can pick up 30TB and 15TB drives for around ~$106/TB which doesn't really seem that bad. It's just over twice the price (per TB) of the cheapest consumer grade SSDs I could find.
Having wasted more than a decade doing pretty much nothing than playing pc...

a) The drive to change has to come from inside. I've seen quite a few people being sent to the online/gaming addiction group. Usually, they only come once.

b) Changing one self is hard generally. But here we got quite a bit of... idk, lets call it "damage". So many missing skills, confidence. So many bad, deeply ingrained habits. So many thoughts to avoid & distract from. And still no idea what will make me content.

c) I'm wondering quite often if not starting that journey would have been the better choice. If i could have found a way to stay happy. One motivator for me was the disdain for what i'd become, so no way back now. Now it'd be great to only disdain that past me ...

Agreed, but every industry/sector might have their own set of standards that usually are overlays on top of GAAP/etc. For example in the US for state and local governments there is GASB: https://gasb.org
If your goal is to build strength, fitness, and physical discipline, but you want to avoid injuries, martial arts is in general a very bad choice. Sports injuries are extremely common even if you are trying your best to avoid them in the majority of martial arts (including grappling arts).

Purely maximizing strength and fitness and minimizing injury would look like some form of resistance training combined with low-impact cardio like swimming or cycling.

Martial arts with minimal injury would look like a boxing fitness class (as opposed to a boxing class) or something with slow motion sparring or no sparring. Not sexy at all, or particularly helpful in a fight, but safe.
> If the mortgage is covered by extortionate rents on your other properties then historically the empty unit is appreciating in value.

That appreciation is happening whether the unit is rented or empty.

The scenario the landlord sees for a given unit is (assuming zero mortgage costs just to make the math simpler [1]):

Empty unit: $0 in rent + $Y in value appreciation

Rented unit: $X in rent (X>0) + $Y in value appreciation (where Y is fixed between the two scenarios because both cover the same rental unit).

For the landlord, $X + $Y is greater than $0 + $Y.

The landlord's greatest total income is when all units are rented, as then all units are returning $X+$Y.

[1] including mortgage and tax costs adds two subtractions to the formulas above, which will result in a real net loss for an empty unit, as the mortgage and taxes must be paid, irrespective of the rented status of the unit.

It seems it's between two devices, the Libra 2 and the Sage, but I keep hearing the Sage has worse battery life (sort of the downfall of the Oasis for me as well). I just like using Calibre since I get a lot of epubs from places like HumbleBundle and other book bundles. These always have issues with the Kindle, like covers going missing.

I'd love to get something a little less fickle for my use case and it does sound like the Kobo devices might get me there. I just really like the Oasis from a materials, size and general usage.

The entire system has reached the end of it's design life and the floppy is just the shocking bite to get people to click through. Really this is the regular replacement of an old system with a newer control system that will make the trains run better and more reliably.
They evaporate faster in the cold, because the air is very dry when it's very cold. Or sublimate I guess? In any case they usually don't freeze unless they are very wet (which rarely happens - people use washing machines that rotate very fast for the last few minutes of washing to remove most of the water mechanically).

And when they do freeze it's not like cloth encased in ice, it's more like the clothes still look and feel dry - they just hold their shape :) If you put them at room temperature they finish drying within minutes.
This would be so cool, but we need to think more about how we could do it and make enough money in the future to train more models with even cooler features.
To be super clear, I'm not a fan of this specific thing. The rest of csvbase may be the best thing ever!

This kind of configuration feels very magical in that it's completely behind the scenes. There's nothing in code I can look at that says "this URL should be handed to this adapter". There's no env var that gets slurped in. No .env file that's parsed. There's nothing checked into git that tells me how that URL scheme could possibly work, except the existence of a package in pyproject.toml -- one that's not even imported, just present.

That makes it stateful in a bad way. If `poetry install` (or `pip install -r requirements.txt` or whatever) didn't complete, the module using it will still load and run up until the point that it crashes because that URL doesn't load. If I ran an automated process to prune unused modules from poetry/pip, suddenly behavior changes. I don't like that idea one bit.
The hypercompetence of tech enthusiasts and the mind-numbing idiocy & dishonesty of politial governance don't mix, so cities have to spend tens of millions with parasitic contractors for what a few clever hackers could do as a side-project.

> Every business integration needs to be updated. Google App Store, Apple App Store, Amazon Appstore... They all have bindings to twitter.com, and some part of their flow will panic and flag a security issue if they see it's turned into a redirect to elsewhere.

And that's assuming the integrations even support changing the primary domain name in their OAuth backend, which a lot of them will not. Or you have appliances that got made years ago when Twitter integration was the fad of the day - I 'member there's a fridge out there that showed tweets on its screen -, game consoles or other devices that don't get firmware updates any more.

Nobody fears posting on Reddit. That's silly. What would there be to worry about? It's just software. It doesn't even recognize that you exist.

The problem is that the real world is increasingly not understanding that the internet and the world are not the same place, and they are treating software and people the same way. It turns out that people are not software. This leads to problems. Those who confuse you with software don't apply the compassion that people would otherwise normally receive, and, as a result, will be quite happy to put you in a bad place.

You know, the 'Redditaization' of the world. Its funny that even here we see the internet and the world being seen as the same thing; emblematic of the exact same confusion that the comment is about.
> UI polish with way less effort.

Clearly not. The least effort is to use the platform’s native widgets, or at least a decent toolkit. Those shiny web-based interfaces suck because the developer never put the effort to make the widgets behave as they should, and that’s because it’s actually very hard and expensive to build a UI framework from the ground up. Have a look at UITextField or NSTextField and what they do out of the box for free, for every single application. Nobody is going to implement half of that in their fancy text boxes. The only reason it takes less effort is that everybody half-arses it.

The consequence is that most Electron apps are a dog’s breakfast and the polar opposite of consistent and well made.

The only real difference is the housing market is far less liquid than stocks are.
