> Not necessarily, someone can just hand me a dollar for nothing in return.

Value is certainly subjective. While it is possible you might find someone seeing a dollar as being worthless, just as they might give you a house for nothing in return, I don't expect you will find that to be scalable. If you have a thirst for all the dollars you can get your hands on, you are bound to go thirsty relying on this.

> Agreed, that limit is what total supply is.

There is a limit on supply, but also a limit on demand. That's why we call it "supply and demand", not just "supply". In a "normally functioning" market, demand actors start to drop out of the market as price rises.

In fact, you can see this happening in the housing market. A lot of people can't afford a house, so they are no longer participants in the housing market. They may still wish to own a house, but that's not demand, that's dreaming (or what you might call latent demand).

Hence why a shortage occurs when price is unable to rise. When price is unable to rise, there is no price-based mechanism to see that people leave the market, creating a situation where "demand exceeds supply". Which is why you will typically see alternate mechanisms step in instead, such as a lottery, or offering on the basis of first-come, first-served, to force people out some other way. A medical doctor with an ethical, and often legal, obligation to not allow price to rise is apt to use a needs-based mechanism, serving the patients in most need of care ahead of the richest patients with the common cold. That's certainly not the case in the housing market, though. Price is most definitely able to rise – demonstrably so.

> But notice it's possible to withhold something from being traded.

Of course – at which point it ceases to be supply. Just like, as above, it is possible to withhold on the other side of the transaction, at which point that ceases to be demand. This is exactly what the law of supply and demand describes.
That's a great suggestion, will definitely do that in the next iteration. Thanks a lot!

Please tell me where I can download the server binary to run my "Discord Server."

Oh wait, I can't? So it's not really "my" "server"?

I would have a very different take on Discord if I could host a server myself and ensure that what I and my community have built won't be deleted at the whim of the corporation or threat from a lawyer. There's no offline backup where you can just spin everything back up on a different host.

And to those that think an obscure "invite" link will protect you from Nintendo's lawyers, you're living in a different reality than I am. Discord, a registered company with a lot to lose, will throw you under the bus in a heartbeat to lawyers or law enforcement.

The current generation is way too comfortable with technical stuff being abstracted away behind pretty cloud based interfaces and Electron apps.

Different people are different, naturally, and I celebrate that. I'm very pleased you've worked out what's best for you! I just find it interesting how different people's experience with poverty affects their relationship with money differently.

> Why play the game at all in that case?

Because, for me, "playing the game" isn't really about maximizing income. It's about doing something fulfilling. Income is important, of course. My business ventures have to generate enough income for me to live in the manner I prefer. But once that bar is met, income is not why I do any of it.

My only point is that I come from a place where if the venture fails, I'm fine. I can make another stab at one later. That gives me freedom that I value a lot and is the reason that I've had business successes. The risks I take aren't all that risky to me.
In 1930, fewer than 10% of farms in the US had access to electricity; that kind of land is still cheap.

Mocking responses like yours seem to keep missing how bad 1930 living conditions were: such a lifestyle is with one where the average person had no electricity and no indoor plumbing, no phone service, no internet, no TV: sure 5 hours per week is sufficient for that lifestyle.

(Also, according to this graph, just under half of USA households in 1930 owned land, likewise just under half owned a car: https://oldurbanist.blogspot.com/2013/02/was-rise-of-car-own...)

You want land commensurate with that lifestyle? Sure, OK. $20/h (IIRC, the average American is about $43/h) * 5h/week * 52 weeks in a year = $5200, here's three options in the US where you could buy that in a year, which is much faster than what you need to pay off a house today:

1. 0.17 Acres, IN: https://www.land.com/property/Michigan-City-Indiana-46360/12...

2. 0.66 Acres, AR: https://www.land.com/property/1001-Ash-Flat-Dr-Horseshoe-Ben...

3. 1.13 Acres, NV: https://www.land.com/property/Spring-Creek-Nevada-89815/2031...

What do you live in on this land? Again, I want to emphasise that the average person in 1930 lived in conditions that Westerners would no longer accept including no indoor plumbing, no electricity, no TV, no internet, no phone (mobile or landline).

We won't accept them today, but glorified garden sheds like this are what a lot of people called homes in 1930: https://www.kaufland.de/product/396861319/?vid=396861513

And even adding $15k for the house to $5k for the land gets a total of $20k — a four year cost for someone working 5h per week on half the US average hourly rate.

The current ratio of USA wages to house prices is $495,100 to $77,463/year, or 6.4 years.
I don't know Procreate well enough to answer this conclusively.

But one thing I can say is that using a tablet with a pressure/angle/etc.-sensitive pen and a screen in front of you, is very different from drawing on paper.

Which is very similar, as far as hand/eye coordination and motor memory go, to using a pen with a tablet or a tablet with a built-in screen (e.g. a Wacom Cintiq).

I.e. if you own such a tablet and use it with Krita you may get something very similar to Procreate and call it an alternative.

But if you just own a normal tablet and a screen, learning the hand-eye coordination usually takes six months, from my experience.

That's not really related to the app when you compare desktop painting/image editing apps.

But it matters when it's one of the main features (similarity to pen & paper as far as learning goes).

As is the case with Procreate.
Putting that in a followup post is more accurate. <chef's kiss>

Interesting how they use inductors for memory?

Induced demand isn't necessarily complicated. The simple answer is transaction costs.

If people are willing to spend an hour in traffic to go to the beach, you are basically stuck with that travel time. You can only increase the number of people that end up going.

More recent versions of Photoshop have a frame-based editing setup that can be modified by hand, allowing use of filters and similar tools. This feature has essentially been ignored by every commercial alternative to Photoshop (Affinty, Pixelmator, etc.), which is why I don’t use them. I edit a lot of GIFs.

Krita allows you to import videos or even other GIFs as frame-based animations, which you can then modify to your desire, even adding things like filters or layering images.

That's a lot for 2 years of use. I'm using less than 100 cycles per year, but my MacBook is on a powered USB-C hub a lot of the time (so it's charging or holding but not using battery power).
There's some offset due to the increased weight from the battery pack. Highway driving is better, city driving is worse. Also, the tires emit more, since wear is also a function of weight.

> They presented three possible crimes to the jury, but didn't even require them to declare that he had committed any of those crimes

The crime he was convicted of requires proof he falsified documents to attempt to commit those other crimes, not that he succeeded. He doesn't have to be guilty of another crime to be guilty of felony record falsification in attempt to commit another crime.

And the statute doesn't require the jury to agree on what crime was attempted. That's a finding of fact left to the jury, but each juror may choose which scenario is most likely; you can't play the scenarios off each other as reasonable doubt if at least one of them is what happened in each juror's individual best judgment.
Yeah basically this!
No. There is not.

You've totally misunderstood induced demand. You can build unlimited roads and they will all be used up and commutes will increase for everyone.

People engineer cities and development around transit. If you provide massive amounts of transit to a desirable location people will saturate it.

This is why initially highway projects look like successes. Wow. My commute is so much better. And then. In a decade. They're even worse than they were originally.

It’s extremely easy, cheap and stress-free to travel nowadays due to smartphones.

The untapped market potential in western countries is still crazy.

I suspect it's a compromise after pressure from both manufacturers and repair services; manufacturers so that repairs are gatekept, and the cost of repair remains relatively high (because the manufacturers control the supply and cost of replacement parts and tooling, e.g. with Apple providing certified repair places with tools (wasn't that on a lease / rental basis?)); if repair costs remain high because you have to pay someone else to do it, people will consider buying a replacement instead of keeping their devices.

The concept of headphones in the last 60 years, with the exception of sound quality, comfort, and eventually being cordless.... they have not changed much in terms of style and appearance.

However, I think in the next 50 years, headphones will disappear or.. should I say evolve as part of the human anatomy. Same thing for screen monitors, mouse/keyboard, smartphones, etc.

Think about it. The way things are going, along with "AI" (sure buzzword in a number of ways but something that will change our way of living) many of things we use will be replaced and, likely, be simple extensions or, dare I say, be implanted.

Hard drives will be a thing of the past. Everything will be (as we call today) "cloud-based" and we will be more cybernetic than we think. Of course, someone today will fear such an idea. As we slowly accept the little changes.. in 50 years we will look back and think "how did they cope without it"... a bit like how someone today look back and think "how did they cope without the internet"

Many fear what they dont understand. It is the unknown. AI is a fear factor for many. For me, I accept it for what it is and the changes it will impact our lives and our careers.

All I will say is -- strap yourselves in.. it will be a bumpy ride. I hope we make it through without destroying ourselves. Once we past it, the world could (finally) be at peace and to quote a famous TV show --- "to bondly go where no man has gone before!"
No mention of how AWS/S3 approximates the size of a file to save CPU cycles. It used to drive me up a wall seeing S3 show a file size as slightly different than what it was.

If I recall correctly, S3 uses 1000 rather than 1024 to convert bytes to KB and MB and GB. This saves CPU cycles but results in “rounding errors” with the file’s reported size.

It’s discussed here, although they’re talking about it being “CLI vs console” which may be true?

> I genuinely ask myself: why is "Join our Discord" much more popular than "Join our Reddit"?

Let's say the maintainers of Foo and the Debian Foo package disagree on which plugins should be in the default install.

If they have that discussion on a public forum, maybe unhappy people get directed to the conversation, or someone decides to parade a comment around twitter and link it from HN so everyone can see what an asshole you are. Quite possibly with your real name attached.

But if you have the same discussion on Discord? Much harder for people to link to, once it's scrolled off the screen it's practically forgotten, and almost nobody uses their real name. And you don't see people screenshotting Discord posts anywhere near as often as they screenshot Twitter posts (although it is possible, of course).

I can see how an open source maintainer using their free time to provide unpaid support might find the latter more pleasant.

> You are not at the mercy of anyone.

In many jurisdictions within the United States, an HOA can assess fines for exceedingly trivial violations, then after the fines remain unpaid for a time period as short as 6 weeks, file to sell your home at auction to pay the fees. They can take your home from you, evict you from it, and this is deemed perfectly legal. Do they have to provide proof, for instance, that your grass was actually one half inch too tall? No, there is no adversarial process where they would have to prove that were the case.

Maybe they did, I'm eternally optimistic. I'd have more confidence if OpenAI had used educator voices to say something that resonated with me. Instead the only quote they provide is marketing gobbledygook from some c-suite admin.

Why couldn't OpenAI get a quote from some professor using their OpenAI offering in their classroom, saying how it benefits their students. All I learned from Kyle is that he's using ChatGTP to "harness", "collaborate", "transform", and "integrate"... completely meaningless to me.

C# ".exe" files aren't at all the same thing as either DOS or native Windows .exe files. They are .NET code, similar to Java bytecode. You need a .NET environment such as dot-net (which is available on Macs) to run them. Given that the ZILF compiler is text-based, it ought to run fine on dot-net.
