The way memory allocation and management becomes part of the paradigm of how we write and structure programs, is actually something I really enjoy about rust.
It's like how you can do the exact same thing in C++, using the same concepts and tools (for the most part) with different names, but it never felt the same, or as natural. It's definitely helped the way I think about programs as a whole.
According to current rules, it can't. Only ccTLDs have two letters.
Your Spidey sense should tingle whenever you read about a psychology result in a popular medium. Especially if that result flatters you in some way.

The words that they use are very revealing... These people really do think they're entitled to this sort of omnipresent access, don't they? They think they're heroes of some righteous cause and that everything they do is good and perfectly justified...

Nobody really wants government spooks "going through" everything they post online... Watching the world become so dystopian in real time is incredibly disheartening.
That feels like the wrong approach to me, because this topic seems like a loophole in capital gains tax rather than estate tax. Taking a loan using untaxed assets as collateral is essentially realizing (most) of the income from the assets as cash. Capital gains tax should apply then.

Also, flip your example around and say someone took a $9B loan [0] against their $10B in stock. Now when they die, their estate has only $1B worth of net assets, yet ~$4B in estate tax liability under your idea. It's better to prevent this situation from happening by making the taxes due ahead of time, similar to how once you give away enough taxable gifts (form 709) you need to actually start prepaying what would have been paid by your estate.

[0] and somehow spent it. I stuck with the billions figures because it makes the analysis easier (tax rate asymptoting out to the top bracket), but this is likely to be more relevant with much smaller estates.
i was hit on the hand with a ruler and the crayon pulled from my left hand and forced into my right. i wonder if that has happened to others and if so does it contribute to skew of frequency.
My first search result was thehotline.org, and it does have a button that redirects to google.com. (But that's a US site)

> You can quickly leave this website by clicking the “X” in the top right or by pressing the Escape key twice.

And it does have some kind of Escape key functionality.

The gov.uk page has some listed hotlines by nation (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/domestic-abuse-how-to-get-help#g...), but none of them are actually using that exact red button:

- https://www.nationaldahelpline.org.uk/ uses green bookmark in bottom right and redirects to google.co.uk

- https://dsahelpline.org/ has a green area at the bottom right
Simple when you think about it. It's so much easier to be the opposite of those things.
As others have noted, they have teams of people they bring in to staff the place in case of disaster. They are, as far as I can tell, very good to their employees, who are mostly low-skill workers dealing with an often drunk and raucous clientele. But if you want to get paid in cash every week, they will do it.

Waffle House isn't a great meal, even for a cheap diner, and it's not meant to be. It's hot and freshly cooked, though, and in the middle of a disaster that's something you might not be able to get at home (cf. the Mellow Mushroom owner in Asheville giving out pizza a couple of days after Helene - people like the pizza, but the quotes were all saying "it was just so nice to eat something hot"). And it's always open.

People starting companies who want to build loyalty: look at them. And learn. There's no southerner who doesn't know that you can get a cheap, fresh, and adequate meal from WH when everyone else is closed. You don't have to wonder if it's a 24-hour location: they all are. You see the sign, you can go.
Yeah, those were better days: if you googled for some problem you were having with, say, a piece of equipment, you'd get ads from obscure little stores selling parts for that equipment, or special solutions for that problem. The ads were actually for things you might want, related to whatever you were searching for at that moment. And they were simple little text ads, next to the search results, so you knew they were ads, but they weren't in the way or stealing your attention.
They're not erring on the side of anything. They removed a post containing two "Grinning Squinting Face" emojis but left one up telling all gay people to "get in the ground".

I don't get your point. There is certainly demand lift from Google ads, I am not disputing this.

But because it is a monopoly currently businesses pay way more than the value of the actual conversions Google ads achieve.

Nobody should be willing to pay above, yet they do because the competition is willing to speculate on the value of these and take extreme positions.
i think that's a pretty good indicator of how useful this is though - we don't need communication strategies for dealing with our helpful co-workers who are good communicators.

So based on the first chart, roughly half of Canadian households had negative cash flow in 2023 (spending > after-tax income).

This is true even if you exclude older age groups which would have more retirees drawing on their savings.

Meanwhile the top quintile saves ~$60k per year.

Pretty rough situation.
> ...and doesn't accidentally handle the wrong exceptions...

What support does Python offer, to the author of a function, for determining what would be the wrong exceptions for it to handle? How, in Python, does the author of a function signal, to the functions she is calling, which exceptions they should not handle? As I alluded to in my previous post, the Python language and documentation does not even give programmers a good accounting of what exceptions the library functions might throw.
Okay, so this paper is over a decade old.

Was anything ever made available in the mean time?

My search didn’t find anything.
Some of it is probably real, like repeat offenders of predatory crime. If you've done multiple violent robberies there's probably something in your brain off that allows you to do all that.

There's a predatory ecological niche in every society. Very common in nature too. Altruism is less common than predation in nature, it seems.

Though in the workspace, you may be onto something.
> Where's the proof? That's what you demanded above.

Most people have jobs or school and maybe kids in school. It means there are records and also we can often have our emails. It’s actually very likely in my opinion that Todd could easily figure out where he was that specific day and there would be corroborating evidence of that.

However it’s not limited to that. It could come from any of the Satoshi timestamps, being on an airplane (no internet back then) somewhere or in some situation that would make it impossible for him to be Satoshi.

You guys are a bit younger than my generation and so you still think 15 years is a long time. It’s not really.

I noticed you are also now questioning the Finney alibi and asking for DKIM email message. I mean yeah not a bad idea to check but interesting that you and petertodd seem to be actively questioning things, which honestly is also good. I mean these details are important.

For example I see you raise something about freenode and IPs with the IP leak. I’m planning to study what you said tomorrow. I don’t on the surface understand what you mean about that. It seems pretty clear the IP in the debug.log file is Satoshi’s node and IRC connection, likely a configuration mistake for the windows VM networking.

> I am not petertodd

I know that. However you and him I believe have a long history together.

> This is a new absurd allegation which has only just shown up.

Yes that’s exactly what I initially thought. But once people look closer I’m not so sure.

A few questions for you:
- didn’t Hal actually know retep for a long time? and invite him to join the bluesky list?

- isn’t retep remarkably skilled for his age in 2009 and earlier? he worked professionally on a C++ large codebase at 17! and was clearly very gifted based on an early resume.

- petertodd/retep appears to be trying to misdirect. for instance claiming to he a poor C++ coder?

A good alibi will clear this up if he has it.
I guess I just don't really get your point then, it's not like the Linux Kernel or Chromium or Firefox are giant buggy messes that don't work at all. They certainly have bugs but by-and-large they work very well with minimal issues for most people. I also think their codebases are pretty approachable, IMO A competent C or C++ developer can definitely read the code from either one with a little effort - It's not the easiest thing but it's definitely not impossible, most people just don't ever try.

My point was that making meaningful contributions such a big fixes requires understanding how the code is _supposed_ to function vs. how it actually functions, that's the hard part. In the majority of cases that's simply not something the code can tell you, there's no replacement for comparing the code to a datasheet or reading the HTML spec to understand how the rendering engine is supposed to work, and those things take time to learn. For the simpler parts people do actively contribute to those without tons of previous experience (or because they already have experience with a library or etc.).
Anything would be better than the current system where you basically just have one source.

Uber won versus taxis because Uber provided a fraud-free experience, and the taxis were acting fraudulently. Uber would tell you how much a trip would cost, and let you pay for it through your phone (through your saved credit card); a taxi would drive in circles to run up the fare, perhaps even just turn off the taximeter altogether and make up a charge on the spot, and claim their credit-card reader is broken.

Hah!
shrug that's just the way it was explained to me and it seems plausible. Long term capital gains is 15 or 20 percent, whereas the estate tax rate basically starts there and goes up to double. If someone never realizes their gains, then perhaps it makes sense to not be taxed on them. The loophole here is living people realizing their gains, but doing so using loans so they can avoid paying taxes on them.
This is a completely strange idea to me... You are seemingly measuring innovation within a specific product and forgetting that the product itself is a new creation that came without any monopoly as it built.

People eventually recognise a good idea, you don't need a well funded research group to have one. You need an environment where it's plausible for the new thing to work and be profitable.

Breaking up a giant like google seems that it would make it easier to promote an new idea, as it has less risk of being crushed by the interests of a tangentially related company.

My mother is both mean and dumb.

After a lot of conversation with her I've noticed one of the reasons why she's so mean is she doesn't seem to have the cognitive ability to think about the consequences of what she says or does before she says it or does it. She operates entirely on instinct and thinking through words/actions beforehand is a totally foreign concept to her.

If you've ever met a psychopath and seen their true colors, you will undoubtedly be convinced it's a real phenomenon. I have had the unfortunate experience of dealing with one myself. He showed all the hallmark signs. He urinated the bed frequently. He harmed animals when he was young. Specifically, he swung his pet gerbil around by the tail until the tail was severed. He threw a baby rabbit against a stop sign and killed it while his poor younger brother watched. He has grown up to be incredibly sadistic to the point where everyone I know has completely cut him off. I hope you never run into one. When you are talking to someone you believe to be decent, and you eventually realize what they are, what you're dealing with, it is a truly chilling experience.
As TFA says, they were specifically looking for the effect. It an "HDAC inhibitor." These uh, inhibit the enzyme HDAC, which is known to shut down brain plasticity in adult (mice). As to why they figured that out, some of the studies cited in TFA were looking at brain plasticity, plaques, brain damage (strokes?) and (of course) Alzheimer's.

Forget Rosetta. Even installing that shit was hard, and running it on a sufficiently beefy machine was probably really not a thing in the late aughts. For protein design you mostly just need a quick and dirty estimate of what it looks like, and you have friend proteins that can be used to homology map, you could just use phyre/phyre2, which is an online threading model and be close enough to get work done. Upload the pdb, upload the sequence, bing bam boom.
Stay safe.
I believe the reasoning is that the list was originally used for post, so far-flung regions of a country may have their own codes, even if they're not politically separate. GF, French Guiana, is a good example. Politically, it's merely a region of France, but it still gets its own code.

I think it should be common sense that both Google and Apple should be treated equally on this issue, regardless of what you think about the actual issue. Instead, we have two virtually identical cases, and they were decided in completely opposite fashions.
> The downside of the "bundle everything" approach (which is also used by Docker and it's ilk), is that whenever one of those dependencies needs to be fixed or upgraded (for reliability or security reasons), you have to find every instance of it on the entire system, which soon becomes an extremely difficult task.

How it becomes difficult task? Just download things and replace them, when I ask to update. I have fast internet and big SSD, that's fine for me. 90% of software I'm using on my Mac are installed via alternative ways and they already bundle all the dependencies, so I already living with it.

Just curious, is this an EV thing or just a high weight and low center of gravity thing? Because a number of gas cars also fall into the latter category.

The problem with your ideals is that every one has different ideas on what "human flourishing" looks like.
