Yes, all of those things.

There are teams at the same table all working together by communicating with each other about what hands they have. The sucker at the table is the one not part of that team.

> think governments are inherently corrupt and ineffective, so they think might as well join in (and then perpetuate that corruption/ineffectiveness).

Sounds like the way countries typically considered "corrupt" probably work. But for some reason, Americans don't like to think of their country as being as corrupt as someplace like [random central American country], despite evidence to the contrary.
In this encoding of the problem, the graph is fully connected, the edges indicate the state of a connection (ie.
friendship) between 2 users, and the goal is to check that there is either a chain of 2 "connected" edges (A to B and B to C for any A,B,C in the nodes) or 2 "disconnected" edges, which indeed isn't easy to do the tedious way.

The crucial property here is the symmetry between connected and disconnected edges: for any given configuration, if it's difficult to check it on one hand, then it should be easy to do it on the other.
I now see where you stand, and we're going to have to disagree. I've heard all the points that your side can make 20 times over and none of them are convincing. I have also learned that when people use the word "need" they have their minds made up, so no point continuing this discussion, have a good one.
When I was studying about memory and learning, the example of chess masters came up when talking of chunking. The idea that bigger problems can be reduced to a number of chunks that can be understood and recalled instantly. So chess master might not be so much about being able to see x move ahead, but being able to look at the current board state and recall what pattern it is fitting into.
Huh? What do you mean "mass adoption"? Porsche sold 75k TOTAL cars in 2023. They have never, in their entire history, been a mass producer of vehicles.

Tesla sold 232k Model 3s in 2023. Porsche has absolutely no desire to compete against the Model 3, they are a premium brand. Volkswagen is the competitor to the Model 3 and Model Y. Even the S and X only compete with Porsche if you squint really hard. Porsche fit and finish runs circles around anything Tesla has to offer, and on a road track the Taycan destroys the S.

Sony offered Marvel 5 billion for Spider Man. Is it worth it? Probs not. But now Marvel would stop wasting time sending offers. It's the piss off price.

The domain owner is getting tons of offers for their domain and its a waste of their time. Now, slap $10 million, make it large and visible. So everyone can just go away. It's strategically better to put some high value to filter out everyone.

This is just the thing you “voting system optimizers” miss!

Yes, “check each one you approve of” is easy if you the voter aren’t meant to understand how it works. “If you just shut up and do what you’re told by the political scientists, it’ll all work out.”

It’s the ‘how it works’ part that loses people. Strategies employed by those who understand it fully can even advantage more savvy voters over the ones just strictly following instructions. For instance, manipulating ranked choice by strategically not choosing any second or third choices. People know that they don’t know fully how systems besides FPTP work, and it makes them feel like these are a way to cheat them.

The instructions are simple, the mechanism and the possible ‘optimization strategies’ are more complex.

I’m not saying people are stupid, just not experts in this flavor of nerdery, and suspicious.

The faculty of re-solution is possibly much invigorated by mathematical study, and especially by that highest branch of it which, unjustly, and merely on account of its retrograde operations, has been called, as if par excellence, analysis. Yet to calculate is not in itself to analyse. A chess-player, for example, does the one without effort at the other. It follows that the game of chess, in its effects upon mental character, is greatly misunderstood. I am not now writing a treatise, but simply prefacing a somewhat peculiar narrative by observations very much at random; I will, therefore, take occasion to assert that the higher powers of the reflective intellect are more decidedly and more usefully tasked by the unostentatious game of draughts than by all the elaborate frivolity of chess. In this latter, where the pieces have different and bizarre motions, with various and variable values, what is only complex is mistaken (a not unusual error) for what is profound. The attention is here called powerfully into play. If it flag for an instant, an oversight is committed, resulting in injury or defeat. The possible moves being not only manifold but involute, the chances of such oversights are multiplied; and in nine cases out of ten it is the more concentrative rather than the more acute player who conquers. In draughts, on the contrary, where the moves are unique and have but little variation, the probabilities of inadvertence are diminished, and the mere attention being left comparatively unemployed, what advantages are obtained by either party are obtained by superior acumen.

The hotel chains can get together and offer a website showing lower prices to their rewards members.

In fact they did, called roomkey.com Hilton/ihg/marriott/hyatt/choice/wyndham options could all be searched simultaneously, and you get the lowest price and the hotels avoid paying commission to Expedia and booking.

But they shut it down. I wonder if it was because hotels are usually franchised, and the brands get a percentage of revenue as royalty, so they don’t care about commissions the hotel operators have to pay. So they decide to price discriminate via the travel agents.

It should be similarly trivial for the airlines and car rental companies to get together and offer the same website. Isn’t it better to give customers a 7% discount rather than give booking/Expedia 15%?

Obviously, reality is different so there must be a reason. I’m guessing the gains from price discrimination are more than the losses from commissions.
I don't really see anything wrong with saying "yikes" to someone who is needlessly over the top with calling someone an "entitled asshole". It's a bit sad to see someone so rude or angry over something meant so lightly.

I hope you have a pleasant evening. :)

Edit: Well, those are quite the edits you've made there. There was no "reading into" your comment necessary - you called the person an entitled asshole. Your initial comment was downvoted into the grey before I even responded, and you insinuated that I was being snarky simply for saying "yikes" to your "entitled asshole" comment. If you truly thought that I was out to "make [you] look bad", perhaps you could've clarified your original statement in that response to me, rather than calling me snarky? Seems like that would've been an opportune time to have a mature conversation.

Others also downvoted your second response prior to you editing it, too. Seems there was no need for me to convince anyone of anything. Not sure what your deal is, but you do, respectfully, seem tightly wound. I also, for what it's worth, don't really give a damn what anybody thinks about my posts, so I'm not sure who I'd be trying to convince of anything.

I sincerely hope your evening improves!

It's an objective quantity, but you have to be very precise in stating what the quantity describes.

Unbroken egg? Low entropy. There's only one way the egg can exist in an unbroken state, and that's it. You could represent the state of the egg with a single bit.

Broken egg? High entropy. There are an arbitrarily-large number of ways that the pieces of a broken egg could land.

A list of the locations and orientations of each piece of the broken egg, sorted by latitude, longitude, and compass bearing? Low entropy again; for any given instance of a broken egg, there's only one way that list can be written.

Zip up the list you made? High entropy again; the data in the .zip file is effectively random, and cannot be compressed significantly further. Until you unzip it again...

Likewise, if you had to transmit the (uncompressed) list over a bandwidth-limited channel. The person receiving the data can make no assumptions about its contents, so it might as well be random even though it has structure. Its entropy is effectively high again.
as always it varies. First job was very 00's style cubicle arrangement. You may have to move depending on what project/team you were on but you could count on a dedicated desk at any given time.

2nd was a WeWork building. open office room, but the arrangement had plenty of private booths (sharing the floor with like, one other startup) or lounges depending on your needs.

then 3 was mid pandemic and the return was a lot more of that "reserve your desk" style. It was a "true hybrid" workplace, though (0-5 days a week in office. Your choice, zero pressure), so it was only during certain big deadlines where it'd cause difficulties.

> a negative effective phase-out rate: "for every $1 you make up to $X, you get $0.25 more from UBI/Welfare."

The main problem with this is that the tax system is set up to prevent you from under-reporting your income. Over-reporting it is essentially trivial, e.g. two people who are in the relevant income range exchange favors (do each others' laundry etc.), or claim to have, and then actually report the transactions as income and get the credit.

But there's something else you can do here which is really neat. Stop using a complicated progressive rate structure, and instead eliminate the phase out entirely. Now instead of low income people having a nominal 0% tax rate but an effective 50% benefits phase out rate and high income people having a nominal 30% tax rate, you just use a flat 35% tax rate which implicitly has the benefits phase out built into the tax system. Which means you don't need any of this income reporting or annual tax returns or anything of the kind, the employer/seller just withholds the fixed tax rate and you're done, and everybody unconditionally gets the UBI to provide the effect of a progressive rate structure.

Sounds like it. I’ve never broadcast over radio so I’m not sure how easy it would be to hide but that seems to be an important factor. It might come down to surprise inspections but those still usually have minimum 24 hours’ notice, at least where I live.
Destroying their business model is impossible, because both customers and hotels want it. Destroying their grip on the market (I assume you mean accommodation and not flights) would be by offering a better service.
Indeed we do. I was approaching human rights from the perspective of having a right to food, clean water and shelter, and not being threatened for your life every day. Having other people talk to you/about you the way you'd want somehow pales in comparison.
You might be familiar with carriage return (0D) and line feed (10)

You mean 0D and 0A, or 13 and 10, but that mix of base really stood out to me in an otherwise good article. I'm one of numerous others who have memorised most of the base ASCII table, and quite a few of the symbols as well as extended ASCII (CP437), mainly because it comes in handy for reading programs without needing a disassembler. Those who do a lot of web development may find the sequence 3A 2F 2F familiar too, as well as 3Ds and 3Fs.

I can see the rationale for <=> being in that order, but [\] and {|} are less obvious, as well as why their position is 1 column to the left of <=>.
Are you counting the $1m in options as compensation? If so, plenty of startups will offer you that.

In the current architecture, yes. What I'm saying is that architecture is wrong.
I have a blog that has all my book reviews that I've written over the past ~17 years. It's got over 1000 reviews on it.

I post them all to Goodreads as well. Hardly anyone read them on my own blog.

It's convenient for me to have them all in one spot so I can export them and whatnot.

I've had one review that a successful blogger (now substacker) linked to and that probably resulted in more than half the hits the blog ever got coming in about two weeks.

Posting to Goodreads people seem to appreciate more. My reviews get some reaction a few times a week there.

A few people IRL know about my blog and reviews on Goodreads. I don't generally tell people about it but if people really read and it comes up I tell people.

I keep it largely separate from my Twitter account and Linked In profile.
You'd tax them some proportion of the fair market value of the domain, not their revenue, just like with any other form of land.

NK's geographic position is interesting. Unless US boat is launching east from PRC's Yellow / Bohai sea / PLAN bastion, there isn't a trajectory to NK that doesn't look like it's heading towards PRC mainland. And even then, unless timed during summer months, prevailing winds is going to push fallout / radiation towards BJ. During winter downwind will drift to SKR / JP / east coast PRC. I don't know what proportional counter retaliation is, maybe a few nukes off CONUS west coast urban centres, but PRC isn't going to sit there and eat incidental radiation over major population centres even if target is NK.

Even an artist as to meet something that can resonate within its public to be called thus, otherwise the person might be creative but lake the social dimension which is a preponderant trait of any artistic practice. Much like the difference between creating a language of your own for exclusive usage in your diary and creating a language enshrined in some literature work like Tolkien did.
This is a point worth clarifying. I think a lot of people actually do get rich investing. It just turns out the "good process" in this case is leaving your money in a diversified portfolio for decades. This leverages making a bunch of bets that on average have a positive expected value over a long enough time horizon that you are able to realize the gains.

There are also certainly other ways to have an edge in investing (quant firms come to mind), but I think the most realistic option for "anyone" is readily available in the form of low fee index funds and a long time horizon.
$5B for ownership of Spider-Man, including worldwide exclusive perpetual rights to the character itself, all derivative works, all the media (comic books, movies, TV shows, etc.) could well be worth the price. I'm not an accountant or IP valuation expert, but there's a lot of money in that brand. Far more than a mere domain name, at least.

No. It allows the copyright holder to monopolize the copying and public performance of the work. That’s it.

It’s not a copyright violation for me to take your copyrighted painting and draw on it with crayons or hang it on a wall labeled “World’s Worst Painters.” As long as the copy was sanctioned by you I can put it to any use I want as far as copyright law cares.

> the problem isn't as simple as you read about on internet comment sections. In my experience, it's good to have some remote employees but the WFH dynamic collapses when you try to let everyone do it. It's not appropriate for everyone.

We talk about this, but also never particularly talk about how many an office space isn't for everyone. Especially as Gen Z, who grew up with smart tech and instant, HD remote communication, starts to enter the workforce.

I'd say you simply have to choose one or the other per team. If it doesn't work for some, move teams or fire them. It's not like management doesn't make unoptimal, undesirable moves all the time so this situation isn't special.
Which welfare plans are you cutting? Social Security? Nope, because the average payout is 50% higher than $1000/m. Same with SSI/disability. You certainly couldn't replace any of the medical plans (Medicaid/Medicare) with anywhere near that amount.

The welfare plans that might be subject to being replaced only amount to a few percent of the federal budget. The bulk of the budget is those plans above, which would result in less benefits if replaced. You're not paying for this by finding lost coins in the couch cushions.

> It's not about accuracy.

In the case of US silos, it sure is. Nobody believes the doors on those silos would survive a direct hit (edit: meaning, a hit with a US warhead's sort of CEP accuracy), but if the warhead lands a mile away...

> The first is that they are deep underground and fortified to withstand nuclear blasts.

If you have any references indicating that Russian ICBM silos have been deemed by the US to be indestructible, I would like to read about that. It is possible to build a bunker deep underground that is difficult to destroy with a single warhead, yes, but what we're talking about is actual silos where ICBMs are deployed.

> but again you can see the extreme focus on agriculture, industry, medical, economic, and many targets simply labeled "population."

I see that being referenced as one potential target (category number 275, out of how many I'm not sure) of many. Not the subject of "extreme focus" as you've said here, nor a target that would be prioritized over the enemy's military assets, as you suggest in a parent comment.

(the real war crime is the design of that website)

> Modern target lists likely aren't even bothering with silos and just going for complete destruction of the enemy civilization.

I guess this is the gist of my disagreement with your comments. I have no idea why you would believe this. I'm not suggesting the people who do this kind of planning are humanitarians, nor am I suggesting I expect many people to survive a big nuclear exchange. My disagreement is: the idea silos would not be targeted by a party launching a first strike, in favor of hitting soft targets, is silly.

edit: there's enough wrong here that I could go a little crazy with responses. here's just a little more.

> There are also other practical issues - you don't know where every silo is,

If you're the US government, you view it as your job to know where all the silos, and to the fullest extent possible all the warheads, are. (and if you're the adversary, you're interested in using your silos as a tool for deterrence and negotiation, which wouldn't work if they all existed in secret)

> there are likely dummy silos meaning you end up completely wasting a high yield weapon, and so on.

Russia's strategy has included road-mobile ICBMs that are deliberately difficult to track, but if they've ever built fake silos, I've never heard about it. During the cold war that would have been problematic - the treaties involved inspecting silos. Post-cold war... I don't know, what's the point? In any case, do you have any evidence that this is something they've done?

I guess a cynical person could wonder about how well maintained those Russian ICBMs are today, and whether they're all really "fake silos." ahem You read pretty negative things, but I've never seen anything that seemed better than rank speculation.
Also, just because a potential buyer has the money doesn't mean he/she is gonna automatically pay what you're asking. I can try to sell my 2000 Nissan Frontier pickup truck for $50K, and a lot of people have $50K, but that doesn't mean anyone is actually gonna give me that much.

(Note: if you want a sweet 2000 Nissan Frontier pickup truck, I can sell you mine for, say, $10K. It's only got ~300K miles on it. And it's worth $50K!)
