Many collaborators I've talked to have shown confusion about why they should do things to cause some far away revolutionary improvement to their own lives, or even less the lives of others, when it would involve putting themselves and loved ones at risk.

Like not only do they feel the risk is too great and the payoff too little. But they also can't comprehend what would motivate anyone to act that way. Sometimes they even insist that revolutionaries must be insane or mentally deficient.

But I don't know if it's the case that people make a decision to be this way. I think it's just the default way to be, given a relatively stable life.

People won't really be able to account for why they became this way, or think of a time when they weren't this way. To them it will just be common sense, while revolutionary thought will just seem dangerous, anathema, and basically unthinkable and wasteful.

I think it's like a mental block that evolved to let us form stable social groups. And I think that certain circumstances can unblock it.

In particular I think that a person can get so traumatized by the state of affairs and things that happen to them that they have a strong reaction that causes them to give up hope for getting rewarded by the current regime. Then a person begins investing significant portions of their effort not in just surviving the current regime, but in overthrowing and changing it in a positive way. They begin to live on the hope of justice they can bring for not only themselves, but also others. They see their own lives as irrevocably altered by the trauma, and become agents for the cause of breaking that cycle. To them, the dream of a future generation not having to experience that trauma can be more motivating than thoughts of their own survival.

I believe that just like the first mode evolved to keep societal groups stable, the revolutionary mode evolved to let groups compete with each other and achieve beneficial new power structures.

I'm really not sure why you keep comparing React to Django? My original point was that HTMX is easier to learn than React.

As for your second point, I think I must be missing something or misunderstanding where you're coming from. It seems fairly fundamental that developers should understand that web servers can render web pages. Even the JSON files that flow into React applications are rendered on a server and served with a web server.

Most people don't know which product to trade, so they need quantitative strategies to monitor the stock market data api interface (the market api interface data can be monitored), and then use a series of factors as stock selection criteria to select stocks that meet these factors. Market data is bought, and those that are not satisfied are sold.
At the family office scale, are you sure those APIs aren't Actually People, It seems?
You don't deserve to get money, but you do deserve to have the money you did deserve go somewhere of your choosing.

In this case, as you say, the guy didn't put much care into the issue, so we don't have to worry too much about if our decisions are what he would have chosen. What he chose was to barely consider the matter and mostly leave it up to others to figure out.

The fact he did remove the 2nd gf is interesting but probably has 2 arguments that cancel out. A, he removed the 2nd ex from insurance as soon as she was an ex, so in general he doesn't intent for exes to still be beneficiaries. B, he removed the 2nd and only didn't remove the 1st, so keeping the 1st on was intentional.

I do not think the 1st was intentional, but not taking care of this stuff in general was intentional, so he gets what he gets.

The brothers, well it's unfortunate that unfortunately they had a careless brother. If the court gives it to the ex, no great travesty has happened. The state is only deciding because the guy largely didn't bother deciding for himself.
Try it out and see what ppl think. The one thing you have to keep in mind is privacy around data. If you can somehow make this work such that user privacy is not an issue then you might be good. Lots of companies are hesitant to process their data outside of their servers but again depends on data classification policies.

Once you build it let me know I can help you test it out.
Uhh, not so sure about “only a few big POS providers”. I mean there are a few bigger ones but the long tail is looong (go search for “best pos” or similar and see the list of names). Not to mention every larger company is using something in-house or white labeled from a company you’ve probably not heard of.

So sure, there are a few bigger providers but a lot of POS systems (not all) are in it for the CC fees (they want a cut) which means they work closely with MC/Visa/etc, how do you think the existing CC companies will respond to a POS working to help dethrone them? And what’s in it for the POS company?

Sort of. If your approach is "never free things" then you probably want to know pretty clearly what allocations will produce leaks and a sound escape analysis is going to definitely report some allocations that are unexpected.

But this isn't the hard part.

Since you need to edit your compile to modify allocations, this needs to be a global analysis. If you've got a function that takes a parameter by reference and returns it by reference, you need to adjust the allocations at the call site to be on the heap if the return value outlives the allocation. But... now you've broken separate compilation and need this to run as a global pass with lto. And enjoy all of your false positives caused by sound call graph analysis in a world where you've got virtual and indirect function calls. And what about a local that is stored by reference as a field of an object and then that object is passed by reference to a function? Now you need an object-sensitive pointer analysis. During your compile.

And then there are all of the ordinary problems with C++ that make sound static analysis nightmarish. One of these things havocs and blows everything up to Top and you are quickly yelling at your compiler.

Not really, the observable universe is a specific part of the universe we know of. We also know a lot of things about the parts of the universe outside the observable universe. In time, some parts of what is today the observable universe will become unobservable (since they are receding at an accelerating speed because of dark energy). That doesn't mean they will cease to be things we talk about when we say "the universe".

Now, is it possible that some day we'll see new stars or something else coming from a completely unexpected direction, and discover that the universe also contains things that did not begin at the big bang? Sure, it's always possible, and our theories will change. But it's absurd to qualify each statement based on the possibility that new knowledge will come along at some point, when the same qualification always applies.
> I won't even talk about cheesecakes!

I really hope you (or anyone else!) weren't going to saying anything bad about cheesecakes. This is a perfect food given to humanity like a divine gift. As far as I know, and do not correct me, is that its nutritional content adapts exactly to what your body requires at the time of eating. It is a perfect food. And also delicious. I am not biased.
> and rest of the world where China is also going to be tariffed

Where? In US? Because in majority of the world they will not get tarrifed. This is wishful thinking. You are closing the biggest market for yourself (China) and then you are not competitive in the rest of the world so either way you lose. The only way to win is to stay competitive.

I'm no doctor either, so the below is mostly guessing.

I imagine bone density as well as any other biometrics change constantly. How much over the course of however long, I don't know.

I weigh myself daily on a scale with bioimpedance. I understand that this is not the most accurate way to measure body composition but it's something. My bone density is different every time I weigh myself, and it has some correlation with diet, exercise and water intake. Again, how much this is accurate or reliable, I don't know.

> I'd be shocked if actual muscle mass changed; I'd personally wager that its almost exclusively water weight

Given that a huge percentage of cell mass is water, you're likely correct. That means muscles get bigger and better hydrated. That should in turn make them stronger and more resilient. That's muscle building. The other bits (more organelles, etc) may or may not take longer to follow (again, not a doctor, not a biologist) - I have no idea.

In any case, the "study" more or less guesses that more exercise means weight gain due to reduced basal energy expenditure. That may be the case, but that's fine. Weight gain due to muscle mass is desirable.

The problem is that the phrase "weight gain" is normally used in contexts where it means fat gain, which is undesirable and dangerous for one's health.

Show HN: I built chatbot that tailors slides to audience, goal and talking style
I build digital products in my free time, and I have a day job to pay my bills. Delivering results on both fronts is hard, so, I automate & optimize.

As a PM I create a lot of slides for budget approvals, new hires, new tools, and also to pitch new ideas and strategies. I believe slides are a great tool to get what you need, but it often takes too much time.

So, I've built Deckster, a chatbot that helps to create goal-achieving slides, based on the audience you present to, your desired outcome, and your communication style.

Might be useful for someone else as well. Will appreciate feedback.

If the process by which one becomes a beneficiary is swiss cheese, that does matter.

That changes the strength of the very word beneficiary in the statement "beneficiary until proven otherwise". It's now only "maybe beneficiary until proven otherwise."

In other words, arguable, requiring to be determined.

You're not the thing until proven otherwise, the thing has to be proven in the first place now.
I can’t speak to Discover but Amex is so annoying to deal with. You have to set them up separately (from MC and Visa), they require you to setup a merchant account with them to accept Amex (payment processors like Stripe do this for you but if you go any lower-level you have to do some setup).

Then the Amex reps call you can try to spout the benefits of accepting Amex, how they can advertise your business to their card holders, yada, yada. It all feels like bullshit. I have an Amex card, I’ve never visited or not visited a business due to them taking or not taking Amex. I’ve never cared to look at the Amex site to find places that accept it.

They want to make it feel exclusive but it’s just not.

Yes that’s one factor. But there’s also a “going bust” factor which is kind of a fundamental dynamic as well.

Think of it in terms of life. Once you are dead you’re dead, it’s the end. If the variance in your life outcomes “crosses the zero line” then the game ends, even if it’s just for an hour.

You could bend your argument to cover that by arguing that the utility of that last little fraction tends to infinity. Like what would you exchange for the drink of water that would save your life if you were minutes from death?

But it’s a bit strained, especially as a way to explain it to someone for whom utility is not already intuitive.

I think it’s pretty easy to understand that excessive variance leads to death or very negative outcomes.

All you need to demonstrate it is a houseplant and a supply of water, air, and sunshine. If you increase the variance of any of those three things sufficiently you quickly don’t have a houseplant any more, regardless of the average total supply.

Harbour Air Seaplane Collides with Boat in Vancouver, Sinks
It's difficult to enact the programs because people disagree on how they are run. All students or some students? What's the bar on the latter? How is it funded? Should it be a federally organized program or should the states lead how they do their own? Should it come with a mandate of food healthiness, what's that bar if so? Is it a school only supplemental program or should it be a change to a general welfare program (the latter having a whole set of debate how it should be done if its own)?

Very low on the list of reasons it's difficult is the percentage of those just plain not interested in the idea. It may seem silly ("we all agree no kid should go hungry at school so why haven't we done it universally") but picking that one reason out of the hat and holding it out as why isn't helping anything.

There weren't really any advancements from around 2018. The majority of the 'advancements' were in the amount of parameters, training data, and its applications. What was the GPT-3 to ChatGPT transition? It involved fine-tuning, using specifically crafted training data. What changed from GPT-3 to GPT-4? It was the increase in the number of parameters, improved training data, and the addition of another modality. From GPT-4 to GPT-40? There was more optimization and the introduction of a new modality. The only thing left that could further improve models is to add one more modality, which could be video or other sensory inputs, along with some optimization and more parameters. We are approaching diminishing returns.
