I started doing a kind of `small`, hyperfocused niche, ERP around 2004. Is still halfway.

Look for example:

ERPs are a beast that eventually incorporates anything and everything you can imagine, and even then, so coupled to a particular kind of business (or just ONE of them) that there is NO way to make a semi-universal solution.

This sounds like a Bond villain: you are my guest you are free to leave any time. Of course, you risk death doing so, but you can leave any time.
I've been really impressed with the N100 Mini-PCs. I have a couple running Proxmox and then a few different VMs and containers to do light server stuff. For $180 the Beelink gives you 16GB of RAM, 512GB of SSD, plenty of video output. Just a fantastic performer.

You know how Nintendo released Pokémon Red and Blue? The final goal of the game was to catch all the Pokémon, but depending on which version you’ve bought, some of them were missing. The only way to actually collect all was to trade with other players, which created a community around the game.

Similarly with Minecraft, an online community got built around these wikis, figuring out stuff much beyond simple crafting recipes. We’d never get the cart boosters, water elevator or optimal mining techniques if everyone just played off the tutorial.
I think both are valid, and in the balance. At about 3x deep we know there will be 20 or more.
@OP: I remember you get an interview where you explained your machine, but I can't find it. I found https://vimeo.com/871751234 that shows ore about the device, but does not explain too much. Do you have a recommendation?
I'd love to see the performance data before judging whether it is a good idea. There's no information on the branch prediction penalty of this approach as well.

Anyway, I think the intuition of this approach is to aggressively fetch/decode instructions that might not already in L1 instruction cache / micro-op cache. This is important for x86 (and probably RISC-V) because both have varied instruction length, and just by looking at an instruction cache block, the core wouldn't know how to decode the instruction in the cache block. Both ISAs (x86, RISC-V) require knowing the PC of at least one instruction to start decoding an instruction cache block. So, knowing where the application can jump to 2 blocks ahead helps the core fetching/decoding further ahead compared to the current approach.

This approach is comparable to instruction prefetching, though, instruction prefetching does not give the core information about the starting point.

(High performance ARM cores probably won't suffer from the "finding the starting point" problem because every instruction has the length of 32-bit, so the decoding procedure can be done in parallel without knowing a starting point).

This approach likely benefits front-end heavy applications (applications with hot code blocks scatter everywhere in the binary, e.g., cloud workloads). I wonder if there's any performance benefit/hit for other types of applications.
I think that people that work on RHEL often assume python just "exists" everywhere because DNF has a python dependency, same for Debian, apt and perl.
It's not a binary. If we say market freedom is a spectrum with the USSR at 0 and the US at 10 (reductive, but let's pretend) then China moved from 0 to 5 and became a global power within a couple decades. This is a strong argument in favour of a level-5 economy, not a level-10 economy..
This does have provisions for GPIO, there's an RP2040 microcontroller integrated onto the board which is wired to the N100s USB bus on one side and the exposed pin headers on the other. It's set up such that you can flash your own code onto the RP2040 so it should be quite flexible, you could just use it as a simple USB to GPIO bridge, or you could implement low level application logic on the RP2040 itself for stronger realtime guarantees.
I do not participate in or watch any sports, but this logic would preclude public investment in anything whatsoever.

I enjoy publicly funded museums. I hang out in publicly funded parks. I check books out of publicly funded libraries. None of these are used universally by all of the taxpayers whose money is used to fund them, but I don't feel guilty for that—I pay for things that they use that I don't use. That's part of the deal.

Whether sports need public funding is a good question that's worth exploring, but the mere fact that not everyone would enjoy them is not sufficient reason to not fund them.

The real reason to have bloomberg, other than data, is actually the chat.

OTC (things that don't trade on exchanges) markets are a lot closer to ebay or facebook marketplace than many realise, for example, e.g. you ask for a price, possibly haggle a bit, say you want it, behind-the-scenes people scurry off and actually make it happen.

When you first activate your terminal bloomberg send you an email congratulating you on joining "the exclusive club" (this is exaggerated, they want you to feel special, but there's truth to it).

As well as all that bloomberg is technically also still (iirc) one of the largest private computer networks.

prior to 2020, one of the perks a lot this audience had with their job was in office gyms. for the price of a decent pair of running shoes, you could afford a few months of a gym membership. you could also do jumping jacks, or any other number of at cardio exercises from plenty of places with Apple's offering just an example. i would venture a guess there are youtube channels for it as well. to say that exercise is cost prohibitive is just someone looking for excuses.
I mostly agree, but I do think it should be a requirement that the user can install an alternative operating system. On a desktop or laptop, if you dislike something about Windows or macOS, you can install Linux. On most Android devices, you can unlock the bootloader and install a custom ROM.

Granted, I wouldn't expect Apple to support a software issue after doing this but at least you could technically use your hardware for anything you want if you're dedicated enough.
The fun part is that puzzle you're describing is only in the optional Mega-Monkey mode where you chose to get more difficult puzzles at the start of the game. In normal mode, you can walk out the door with the gold tooth as soon as you get it.

Nobody said whether that was a problem or not but obviously if you use a vendor and they provide an unstable team, the team is less valuable.
Parent here, sorry for taking so long to get back and thanks for such a thorough answer.

I’ll start off by agreeing that supply is the primary issue. If I had to choose between increasing supply and fucking with tax incentives, I choose increasing supply 100/100 times.

However, you’re approaching this solely from the perspective of existing multi home owner.

(The following is directed both at you, but also the other dozen comments making similar points).
The entire point of this change would be to drive prices down. Because carrying this inventory is more expensive. Rent is dictated by what renters are willing to pay, not by your property taxes. What you're willing to pay is driven down by the increased cost of ownership. This leads to more owner occupied lots.

Your third option that you didn’t mention is that you sell the duplexes to one of the renters or someone looking to buy their first home and rent the other half (who now have an advantage over serial investors, and prices are lower) and you can utilize the cash from your sale to invest in other assets that don’t carry as many negative externalities to be invested in as speculative assets (I can’t buy a fucking house!!!!!!!). This is also Economics 101.

But to be clear, 3-4x property tax is too high, it would make more sense in the 20% up to 300% and scales the more you own. Also let’s just build.
There's two clear points to be made:

* Why change to something that's "almost as useful" .. that's a downgrade.

* Pretty is often the enemy of Consistent.

On that second point, it doesn't have to be .. but it can take a great deal more effort to have data presentation that's both creative and consistent and dense.

The domain goals here are rapid navigation of dense infomation across tens of thousands of companies, timespans, portfolios, groupings, comparisons, etc. With a good interface the user quickly finds the desired scope and view and automatically eye tracks to the wanted figures.

It's not an interface for pretty board room presentations (although in an organisation that promotes based on merit in the ditches most senior staff would be familiar with a Bloomberg Board) - it's a daily driver for engine room.

I'm not defending this specific interface, just highlighting what is common to many similar domain tools.
> The profit motive is why they get the capital to do the R&D.

A massive amount of research is funded by public grants. iPhones are a famous example of a private-sector product almost entirely created off the back of public research. It is absolutely not true that private investment is required for pharmaceutical R&D.
It really depends on your needs, volume, and budget. Mailchimp is probably the "default" option, but there's also ConstantContact, ActiveCampaign, HubSpot, etc.

It's also a question of what other services you might need to integrate into (your CRM or sales funnel or analytics or whatever).

Raspberry Pi sized computers are very popular as second systems for experimenting and as home servers on a budget. For many people, it’s an easy and cheap way to get a Linux server running in their home, apartment, or dorm, without spending a lot of money or having a noisy, hot, large old server box.

They do okay for a lot of tasks. This board has a decent GPU for the power envelope. They can’t keep up with a $1000 workstation or server build, but it’s a lot of horsepower for under $100 and around a dozen watts.

That would have been difficult since Plan 9 predates each of those other systems. Also Plan 9 took place in Bell Labs as a research project, was based on their own UI research, and was not intended to be a commercially familiar UI. There are interesting ideas in the write ups about the UI that could be applied in nearly any UI today.
Modern ransomware attacks has demonstrated beyond doubt the very harmful belief that private network behind nat is an acceptable alternative to keeping systems secured and patched. The only thing nat does in a security sense is to provide false sense of security until the day a single machine inside get compromised and then the whole hospital or company comes to a standstill while rushing to restore from backup, praying that they do keep backups. Its a mistake, and the only reason it felt like a good idea was because Microsoft with windows 98/2k/xp got hit en-mass with worms targeting vulnerable windows machines that never got updates.

Not an expert in OS development whatsoever but I do know that it's not intended for common usage, so how its UI looks is not something devs would take much care of.

Though I do know that it puts some strong emphasis on mouse usage, something that for someone that grew to use the keyboard a lot like me (ironically, as a graphic designer) seems to be really awkward, to say the less. Its strengths seem to be its overlaying concepts and that it intended to be "the next gen Unix" - alas it won't take over for a myriad of reasons, and some would argue Unix-es have already borrowed some of its concepts for themselves.
I got my kid a raspi 400 a few years ago. She’s enjoyed it tremendously, but I don’t know how it holds up to more recent alternatives. She’s still using it today, though.

Yep. There’s unfortunately a large contingent of people, usually the people that haven’t conducted quantitative research themselves, but have maybe read some, that are just impressed by numbers. It’s like the next level up from people that say “science says that …”.
The n100 is at least “not awful” at 3d graphics in my experience. It doesn’t compare to a discrete GPU of course, but it can handle basic games. Mine has been able to run dolphin at the consoles’ native resolution. Although I think I had occasional stutters in some circumstances.

I have an n100 mini pc hooked to a TV and I play couch coop games on it occasionally. It can do reasonably well tbh, but for simplicity I do end up streaming most games from a more powerful machine. I’ve heard performance is better in windows but I’m running mine slightly handicapped- as a proxmox VM with GPU pass through, and not a lot of ram. This same box also runs all my home automation and a few other services.

No utility you say? i’d argue all of this is relevant to consumers and/or businesses in europe:

• Microsoft windows

• microsoft office (excel, etc)

• google search

• google maps

• gmail and yahoo mail

• smartphones

• space-x (affordable satellite launches - for accurate weather forecasts and GPS)

• OpenAI (pioneering LLM’s from a product perspective)

• Visa and Mastercard networks

• AWS / Azure / GCP

• Adobe (photoshop, etc)

• Zoom / Webex (Skype is an exception, created in europe)

• Salesforce

• DocuSign

• AutoCAD

I can list more if you’d like…this was literally off the top of my head. All of these businesses and products were created in the united states, some with VC funding. They employ hundreds or thousands of engineers, product managers, etc. They provide critical business capabilities to businesses around the world. Some are user facing as well.

As far as critical business software Europe has created Skype, SAP, and i think that’s it? From the hardware side, major kudos for ASML and Airbus.

Does anybody have advice for finding appropriate assets to purchase for individuals of very low net worth? Suitable here means:

- affordable to begin with (max 3-4 figures)

- not mass produced (so they’re not already hyper-efficiently distributed to market)

- demand for them will continue to exist (so you can be assured to liquidate them when necessary)

- their value is likely to appreciate (at the very least in line with inflation).

The only example I could come up with is hand-crafted (unique) collectibles, like figurines and such.
I've always thought the summer games should be in Greece each time, with a different co-host country to set the theme etc. Much less waste (you're using the same stadiums and grounds etc), consistent viewing times, and scheduling. Not sure where the winter games could be but I think the same for that too.
The difference is that sports stadiums profits go to a billionaire while a public museum’s entry fee, if any, goes back into the museum.

Once I went with my wife for dinner in a restaurant and there was an unexpected live tango pianist. It was nice, but sometimes I prefer a quite dinner.

Also, I think the GP was talking about the multiple version of the live performances that are recorded and played later in radio or tv. Each one has minor variations, but identifying the exact one may be tricky.

To clarify: There would be two modes, for example, when looking at the prices of options you might want to see the shape of the smile (e.g. equivalent to the markets view of a certain probability distribution), but when trading a specific option you want to know everything about it down to exact prices.

What about ARM64 is not RISC?

RISC was not just about total instructions, but the complexity of those instructions. It's fundamental conceit is that every instruction should ideally take just one cycle to execute. Intel's iAPX432 is one of the most CISCy designs out there and a great case that ISA does matter. It had instructions for stuff like data structures, OOP, and garbage collection. These things could take LOADS of cycles to execute.

In contrast, pretty much everything on ARM64 integer spec is going to execute in just a cycle or two.
