> Nonprofits Insurance Alliance of California (NIAC) discovered that foster family agencies (FFAs) in California are unfairly set up as scapegoats due to four specific problems in California’s judicial system. These four problems prevent FFAs from being insurable for many required coverages by any insurer.

> California counties were requiring (through contract) the FFAs to agree to defend and indemnify the counties, even for the wrongful acts and negligence of the counties.

Follow the money. Attorneys in these cases can take 30-40% of the final jury award — which could mean tens of millions of dollars for them.

I have a hard time listening to this complaint about unchecked power coming from an entity that controls $20 billion of land, owns a $40 billion endowment, and receives most of its revenue from the federal government who is legally required to pay whatever price they ask, all while paying $0 in taxes on all of it.
This no reporter argument is so false but gets repeated often. If I only read internet articles from internet media companies you might have a little bit of a point, but actual newspapers have actual journalists. Some might be good and some might be bad, but they do employ people that do more than build an article around a tweet.

Here's a random newspaper that you're saying doesn't have reporters: https://www.tampabay.com
> Not just because of sanctions, but because they don't allow me to. It's illegal for me

No it's because aws/azure failed to follow local Russian laws + sanctions imposed by US. If you need Russian vps, you can contact Russian providers.
Per relativity, any medium that could conceptually facilitate transfer of information or of causality (which are basically the same thing) faster than the speed that light happens to travel at would also be able to reverse direction and arrive at their source in space earlier than the time that they left.

Nobody cares about courting voters.

The least competitive races in America are in Los Angeles and New York. They’re not advertising presidential candidates there to court voters. The votes don’t matter. They want a $25 donation, that they’ll plow $20 of back into more ads, and pocket $5 on overhead.
Better than What Three Words!
Did quanta get bought by Forbes or something? I seem to recall they had a lot more informative articles than whatever this was. Further, there is no indication on how the first two postulates/statements force one to conclude the latter. Also? The whole format of the thing screams "LOOK AT ME". This is a very weird... thing (I hesitate to call it "article") coming from a site that previously had some interesting content (in the actual sense of the word, not the current colloquial sense)

Is the problem the author can't let go of not understanding? That they need everything to be, for lack of a better term, quantifiable? That there must always be no boundary to our ability to measure? Do they demand an answer to why there is a limit to what we can see at the end of the universe (beginning/surface)?

Is this something AI shat out for clicks? Did they fire actual writers at quanta? Did they smoke a bunch of DMT? Are you ok, quantamagazine? Do you need us to call for help? I'm a bit annoyed that I had to read that, thinking there would be some point, that the top thread was exaggerating, but they weren't.

Speaking of "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall" I wrote a version for Prodigy when I worked there in the 1990s, using their proprietary language named PAL: http://www.99-bottles-of-beer.net/language-PAL-528.html

It never appeared publicly on Prodigy, of course, but it was fun to run on my dev computer.

Also in the early 1990s I wrote a command-line program to generate anagrams. I spent a ton of time on it, adding all sorts of features and optimizations, and used it to find some really interesting anagrams of celebrities: https://www.kmoser.com/anagrams/
no one is talking about transaction. I'm talking about state machine which is what most program boils down to.

The problem with OOP is, AGAIN that all states are lumped together in a single type (class) and so are all the state transitions (methods). This IS a problem, but it is not "tight coupling". "Tight coupling" has a known meaning and refers to relationship between components/classes, see what people mean by it in this thread.

I can simply just repeat that the situation here is actually *loose* coupling, because in order to correctly model state machine, you need to further break down the class into individual states (states not properties, I feel like you need to be noted this distinction) and attribute only the relevant states transitions/methods to each of them, making the coupling of the logic and the state even tighter.

Functional programming is the same, in a strong type system, which they often have, you can't pass input of this function to another. The solution to that is you write more unixy functions that take more generic types. But for high-level, domain-related functions, this coupling is what you actually want.

We can disagree on whether "coupling state to logic is a huge problem". My original point is that it's an entire other thing not the particular "tight coupling" that is the downside of OOP, as widely discussed.
Most people are not listening closely, nearly meditating over music. If you average over most people, this is what you will find. Look at the "outliers" in those same studies.

We already know that organizations (whether public or private) eventually devolve into a bureaucracy where the goal is the growth of the organization itself.

We see this with the government - how often does the government ever remove laws? Or reduce size? Very rarely.

It seems to me that if the goal is to ensure one is not coerced, whether by business or government is not to try and create mechanisms to ensure coercion is only benevolent, but rather to ensure they never have the power to coerce people in the first place.

IIRC there was some hullabaloo made with RIPE in ~2017. Half of it was "go to IPv6 and it isn't a problem" and the other half was "or also log the source ports so we can complete the identification through CG-NAT".

It's nearly 8 years later, we haven't moved to IPv6, and they stopped making noise so I'm left to assume they either got more source port logging or found some other method?

Qualcomm doesn't have nearly as much to lose as ARM does and they know it.

Qualcomm is almost certainly ARM's biggest customer. If ARM loses, Qualcomm doesn't have to pay out. If ARM wins, Qualcomm moves to RISC-V and ARM loses even harder in the long-term.

The most likely outcome is that Qualcomm agrees to pay a slight bit more than they are currently paying, but nowhere near what ARM is demanding and in the meantime, Qualcomm continues having a team work on a RISC-V frontend for Oryon.

> self interest of the government is to provide the information that keep the citizens voting for who controls the politicians

Now expand your model to one where the government, politicans and citizens aren't monoliths.

> who controls the politicians is a profitable game for big corporations

It's a pertinent game for everyone. That's the point of democracy. It's still a profitable game in a dictatorship. It's just that while democracy gives a peanut-gallery seat to even the most disinterested citizen, autocracies hoard those seats for the deserving.
Ah, no, I get it now and I get the sentiment but I think this is better a case where we actually lean into the party system that has developed rather than running away from it, in no small part because it isn’t going away. I still don’t think the States should be executing party primaries or running the party registration process, but I do live in a a locality with numerous officially non-partisan offices with elections that are exactly what you describe and it isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. I would describe it as basically a charade.
"[S]erious property owner" -- This phrase sounds like a "no true Scotsman" test. What exactly qualifies as "serious"? I know numerous people who own a bunch of properties and don't have a separate company structure, as there is no tax advantage (in my jurisdiction). They use local real estate agents to find new renters when old renters leave. It's pretty simple. And, the agent also coordinates monthly payments (to the owner) and any repairs.
I've felt your exact pain: I can only give normal people spreadsheets, because they don't know how to interact with any other data structure. It's a serious problem.

I'm super impressed. I love the names (text not string) and extra fields (like the multiple choice and tensor). But I'm a bit concerned about the complexity. Don't answer these, I figured it out, but this is how it felt: how do I make an array (numbered list) vs a named list (object)? I didn't realize the intro document itself was, well, a document. I was thinking it was a typical website with a sidebar. Script, whiteboard, simulator (??) I though json was just a hierarchy. Schema, Interface, raw data, json. Its a lot of jargon. Is a document a type of json object? Is there a fundamental difference between whiteboard file and a document file? Is a whiteboard a type of document? Can a document be a field in a document? When editing an item, do I need to fill out the interface, methods, snapshot, etc. Where is the save/submit button? (I known their isn't one, but I kinda expect a "I'm adding a new field, okay I'm done adding it and want to go back to a table-of–contents view") I think the UI needs to answer these because it feels overwhelming). You probably even explain it in text somewhere, but let's be real; IRL people aren't going to read the docs.

Good news is, I think its easy fixes; hide the templates the first time someone is making something (only let them make a doc). Hide the methods, snapshots, etc too. Wait till they've done some stuff. Change the "x" button to "save" even though its not really saving.

The windowing system is really impressive, and I've always loved the detached tables of MacOS's spreadsheets. But at the moment I think it adds to the overwhelming feeling.

Public Domain Review?
As any company reaches scale, they will begin to have negative externalizes due to that scale. It is rational to address these externalities.

The author, however, fails to put forward any real criticism of government authorities who:

- Have much greater scale

- Are more opaque

- Engage more aggressively to control and manage narratives

- Are routinely shown to be subject to corporate capture---negating the fundamental point of the argument.

Tech companies (in spite of all of their warts) are at least promoting the free flow of information. This (free thought and expression) is the bedrock of every successful culture in history. Moreover, loss of these has been the downfall of almost every one of these cultures.
Examples:

- Late Ming Dynasty China (16th-17th centuries)

- Late Ottoman Empire (18th-19th centuries)

- Fall of the roman empire

- Tokugawa era in Japan

- Ancient Greece after the execution of Socrates.

- Golden Age of Islam (9th to 10th centuries)

Pretty much all of these examples were cases where the political class enacted controls that prevented challenges to government orthodoxy and/or becoming more isolationist, and other avenues to preventing/controlling free speech in the name of "better social cohesion" and preventing bad influences (...cough...misinformation...).

So I cannot more vehemently disagree with the authors precept (especially since she is likely in a position to benefit from it)
“Of course I’m slapping you while I’m arguing my point. How else can I tell if you’re listening?” That’s a ridiculous strategy however it is implemented.

You will be lambasted for it, but you're fundamentally correct. Recall that the question was "What can be done about the unchecked power of governance?"

Technically it was a forecast of your reason for the purposes of gambling since your position was irrational. You claim to have a different irrational reason for hating on space spending so out with it.
My understanding is that entanglement has nothing to do with the particles and everything to do with what is known about the particles in advance by dint of the experimental setup.

For example, that two electrons are created in a closed system with a net spin of zero, so as long as you do not allow their waveforms to collapse (EG, so long as the system remains closed) then no matter where they go they must maintain that net spin of zero when perceived in relation to one another.

But if this is the case then the "entanglement" precedes the creation of the particles: it is nothing more than an accounting that they are required to obey in concert by the symmetries of physics.
Why Verifiable Credentials Aren't Widely Adopted and Why Trinsic Pivoted
For me I would absolutely never want to work for a company (or boss) who asks people to do a coding challenge before the interview, because that's indicative of a kind of leadership and people I simply don't like. So it's a great filter for me. Once they mention a coding challenge, I end it right then and there, and take them off my list of people wasting my time.
> I think the reality is most people are ok with not owning things.

> By removing ownership from the product offering the seller can reduce the price.

The price of ownership is greater than the price of licensing, as it comes with additional rights and privileges than licensing.

If a product or good is only offered and priced without ownership, how can you say that people "are ok with" not utilizing an option that's not provided to them? They cannot purchase ownership, by what means could they experience the difference?

The products you use as examples were wildly successful under an ownership paradigm, what says that Photoshop or N64 games would have been somehow better if they were licensed goods?
> There's not an inherent privilege of purchasing over renting in property rights. In either case you're paying for something, it's just a different slice of that something

I don't think there's anything inherently right about renting or owning.

Rather, it's one of the things we need to learn about and decide which is better for our societies.

Right now, we are far into testing the "renting" side, especially when it comes to housing and software, and it's very clear that, at least as currently implemented, this is creating an unhealthy society with massive wealth inequality.

I don't have an answer to this, but the only people I see arguing for the status quo are the very few who have benefited from it - landlords, politicians, company execs etc. Or at least people who aspire to join those classes.

If you do find yourself arguing for it, please ask yourself whether you're doing it for selfish reasons rather than looking beyond yourself.
Graviton4 is based on Neoverse V2 which is based on X3.

For those who do not know this, in the USA, our choice is not just between government controls and corporate controls. There is a third element, one that is supposed to be primary. We are supposed to live in a place where we people enact laws. This is not the case. The simplest test is simply to ask "Cui Bono". Who benefits from the laws enacted? For example, do the laws enacted favor drug companies and help them charge $1000 per month, or do the laws help keep drug cost under control? Do the laws enacted ensure that workers earn a living wage, or do they ensure that corporations can charge whatever price they want and pay as little as possible?

What is the federal minimum wage? Who benefits from it being $7.25 an hour? Not the common people

This is not rocket science. And it is stupid. At some point fewer and fewer Americans will be able to afford the things corporations sell. If you are a predator and you kill off your prey, you will die.

We, the people, need to start enacting laws that benefit the people. First and foremost is one that reverses Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. This decision by the Supreme Court represents the height of incompetence or stupid.

Why is this not happening? Are the opinions and situation of common Americans ongoing and visible? Or does the NYT cater to wealthy corporate advertisers? Does it feature articles like "What house can you buy Portland, Maine with $1.5 million" while the number of homeless in Portland, Maine is staggering. Is the Washington Post, owned by Jeff Bezos (aka Amazon) really going to talk about corporate excesses? Since our media is now utterly dependent on corporate advertisers, which of those media are going to oppose corporate excesses?

We need to fix this.
