I love tumbler and never want to go to anything else. After a while your intuition starts to cooperate with what path your hand takes to get desired rotation. I can rotate into any orientation without thinking about it in a single sweep, including how my camera is rolled. Its honestly very powerfull, albeit hard to get used to for the first time.
I'm not a Reddit user (or any social media user unless you count this) but one of my big takeaways from this election is how out-of-touch I am, apparently, with the majority of Americans; I've been shocked for months (years?) that Trump was even still a contender.

I guess I've just been living in heavily blue places, and working alongside highly educated people, since 2016. I thought that everybody could see Trump and Trumpism for what they really are, but I guess not, and I'm left wondering: "Who are these 70M+ people?"
There's even government infrastructure for it in most states and countries! They're called lotteries.
I don't get why he didn't rebrand it as "twitter on X", X encompassing the chatbot, job search, group voice calls, etc and "twitter" being an "app" on X
So it pays out if you decide you chose the wrong career? It would be challenging for any agency to make that profitable. Why not just engage in the age old practice of saving a stash of “f you” money, so when you decide you’re not going to put up with an employer (or industry or field) anymore you can cash in and retrain
One of the flaps burned through again. Not as bad as the first time. The hinge area seems like the hardest challenge.
I tried to search faq how to block people but couldn't find any info. How do I do that?

If it's not possible, I'm pretty sure this site is breaking the EU social media laws.
This blog is about doing video processing on the CPU, so something akin to that.
Trump can absolutely reign things in, I don't think anyone thinks he can snap his fingers and 'fix' something broken this badly.

But yeah, he 100% can take a different direction than the administration that printed more USD than had previously existed in the entirety of the countries history.

'Trump can't wave a magic wand and un-do what the current admin did, so it doesn't make sense to change directions best to stick with the current administration that doesn't think there is anything they could or should have done different' is not the rationale for my position.

Just look at how the stock market responded today - clearly I'm not the only person who thinks 'this will position our economy much better than it is today'.

The part i find most fascinating is that when JCal does push back, the YouTube comments are so disproportionately telling him his opinion is wrong (in a venomous way), he is ruining the podcast, Sacks is running circles around him, etc.
Most insurances don't pay out unless something bad happens to you that you wouldn't voluntarily do – even the job loss insurances (from governments, credit cards, etc.) only pay out on involuntarily unemployment, not if you quit or change jobs on your own accord.

A career change insurance would just be used by anyone unhappy with their current jobs (which is most people, some of the time, and a few people, all the time). The insurer would go bankrupt in a few weeks.

Then why did he make the IRS reprint COVID relief checks so he could add his name to them?

Disk Utility used to be excellent, a model of how an app should be.
But then they rewrote it in Swift and now it's just bad.

Apple promotes Swift heavily but the results are not really encouraging.
I don't think the "so-so" results are entirely because of Swift (probably due to newer, less battle tested software and also newer/younger devs) but still the fact is, all the not-so-great new software from Apple came with Swift rewrites, hard to not make a connection...
People don't really care about inflation. They care about not affording groceries. If they won 1 million dollars from Elon Musk by voting for Trump, inflation becomes irrelevant, because their problem is solved.

You seem to be regurgitating right wing talking points. I think Fox News, right wing talk radio, and right leaning podcasts are the core problem. They get people to focus on a few narrow issues, give them simple rationales and solutions, and just keep harping and getting people to stew about it.

It's weird that you don't realize how many other problems there are which your media sources are not talking to you about, and which you might otherwise find concerning. It's a big world with lots of problems, but you're presented with a few and told that these are the only ones you need to care about. It makes things simpler, but who knows if you might be worried about the wrong things? I guess you may never know.

Just by polling, Kamala Harris seems to be about as popular as Donald Trump, and it really comes down to partisanship.
Proportional representation is more important than RCV vs approval voting for single-winner elections. And, in the US, multi-winner RCV (single transferable vote) is the most viable approach to achieve that.

... The data says wages outpaced inflation.

Social security / medicare are indexed to inflation.

The s&p500 outperformed inflation. (And treasury interest rates - 3 month and 10 Year - are ~<2x cpi and cpi targets for the first time in ~20 years)

What we’ve learned is that a politician should definitely not pull the lever in the trolley problem. Let four die instead of one, then claim credit for the one.
If someone talks about "chat" I assume they're talking about a livestream's chat feed, or the other members of a group message channel.
Well he appointed Supreme Court Judges that overturned Roe vs Wade, and he's promised a rollback on trans rights.
But Trump _was_ president when it was $10, and now he is not president it is more than that. People are going to make that connection even in the absense of a ten point pizza price plan or whatever and are going to think that they will be better off with him.
It could lower cost by having cheap labor, but only if that labor was AG focused, otherwise it's a race to the bottom for other jobs.
"How has the national debt affected your life?" was a nail in the coffin of GHW Bush's presidential campaign. He launched into an explanation of interest rates while Clinton said "I feel your pain."

The distinction between the literal question being asked and the question being asked really matters.
You're "value" is entirely subjective and based on imaginary nonsense. Machine learning engineers making $500k are certainly not worth $500k just because its a hot trend right now. Gucci, Louis Vouton, etc, high fashion items are most certain not worth their price tags, much like diamonds. Eggs at Erawan aren't any different than likewise organic eggs elsewhere and are only $30 because someone decided they could rip off rich people and rich morons happily swallow it hook line and sinker. Value is entirely subjective and only quantifiable in the most abstract, opinionated manner and the richer people are the more often they are terrible at discerning any actual or reasonable value out of something.

If you think it's reasonable to pay exorbitant rent, food, gas, utilities, simply because you live in some concrete jungle then you are blind. It doesn't justify you actually deserving to make that much other than someone choosing to pay you that much.
Suddenly, all those crypto-scam videos seem plausible now that Elon Musk pledged to give away $1 million daily to individuals who sign his political action committee’s petition supporting the First and Second Amendments.
Joe Rogan has a platform because he will allow any idiot on his show and just babble about whatever it is they want to talk about. He's not a journalist, he's a 3 hour ad placement masquerading as a podcast. Lex Friedman is even worse because he gives the impression that he's an intellectual but he plays the same game. At least you know going in that Rogan behaves like a meathead.
Slur isn't an intrinsic property of a word: it's a property of how it's used. "Male" can be a slur, as can "heterosexual", or "management". In theory, "cisgender" can also be a slur, though I've never heard such a use. (You'll sometimes hear "cissy", but I've never heard that used against a specific person.)

You might argue that "punching up" is acceptable, or even that it's not slurring by definition (which I'd dispute), but membership of one "privileged class" doesn't automatically translate to actual privilege. (I think the feminists call this intersectionality.) In such a context, the labels of "privileged classes" absolutely can be used to punch down (e.g. saying "you're such a man" and slamming the door in the face of an impoverished gay transgender man trying to access domestic abuse services).
Does anyone know how to witness these launch events live? Is it open to the public or only SpaceX employees + friends & family?

It's possible for the price of groceries to grow faster than the median wage. You can still have wage growth coupled with reduced affordability.

Look at the demographics of those convicted felons. I suspect you’ll see certain trends in who tends to be targeted for arrest—given that rates of criminality are broadly equivalent across demographic groups—that align closely with who the people in power don’t want to have any power of their own.

Mississippi is a very obvious case. The white power structure there simply does not want to allow black people to vote so they use all available means to prevent that.

i think this is the insidious thing about polarization:

people in the middle get caught in the crossfire of harsh rhetoric. and it is hard to blame people for this, an eye for an eye is so easy and tempting.

I've had right wingers criticize me with patronizing "anti-commie" rhetoric, but the worst has been shaming (yes actual shaming and exclusion) from my peers because i (mostly) agree with them in a contrarian way that they dont like or attempt to understand.

i don't really interact with many right wingers day to day, so this difference might just be a result of that bias.

I'm curious if this kind of thing happens to right wingers as well, or if there is less such "friendly-fire" on the right.

P.S I'm European.

Ya, but being more honest about immigration is better in the long term. Well, I say that, but that's what Canada did and people (not just conservatives) are still angry. Instead of blaming illegal immigrants, however, they just blame legal ones.
A government funding a 1 billion dollars a year software project? That would never fly in any country.
> And finally for me, the strong "pro-women" policies are distasteful for me.

Women still face rampant discrimination. I get that it doesn't affect you personally, but to take it so far as to be offended is really distasteful to me.

This is the crux of right wing ideology. It's all about "me, me, me". So, when Trump lavishes praise on you and promises you your heart's every dream, how can you resist? It's all about you, right?
Not really everywhere but most of the eastern half of the US. The popular vote should narrow to within 2 million votes. California still owes us over 7 million votes, mostly from blue cities. That alone should net Harris almost 3 million
You have zero evidence of that.

More likely you’re just used to suppression of everyone right of you, and when that was taken away you think it’s unfair.
You're doing it again.
For intense morning training I always had a small bowl of oatmeal (straight, non salted or sugared) and milk half an hour before, and two very strong coffees right after (before sauna cooldown), then some lean meat, chicken filets or steak as lunch.

Recently they have all agreed that voter ID laws "just make sense." But they don't even bring up any of the unpleasant history around IDs.

This year is the 80th anniversary of the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, do they really need to go through the history of IDs? We need to rebuild confidence in the integrity of elections, Voter ID, which most democratic countries require, seems like an incredibly modest step.

The states that historically had the worst race issues all have voter id anyway, it is the Northeast and West coast that are refusing.
Its quality is technically superior as evident from the product's PSNR and other factors. There are no "ads" here, I'm not a brand warrior, and nobody cares what formats are the last ones you'd encode your audio in.
That's not the position of the politicians and messengers of the party, that's the position of democrat voters after many desperate attempts to reach and persuade other voters.
I mean I know what domain I'm telling my parents to visit and it isn't chat.openai.com or chatgpt.com. Don't think they need to rebrand but it's a good enough shortcut
I've also seen this with branching strategies. IMO the best branching strategy for open source projects is generally the worst one for commercial projects, and vice versa.
I believe they clear out the launch site within a few kilometres so nobody gets hit by random concrete debris or just melt away, literally. The control centre is probably invitational.

But you can freely watch them live on Twitter. Just follow the official @SpaceX account.

The "Everything costs more" is a byproduct of something more important, not sure what that is, but focusing soley on econmoics as the cause of our issues seems shortsighted, but hey, what do I know.

Notice the flat line after the pandemic? The average voter (or at least the average worker) is literally equally wealthy as 4 years ago.

Goods are indeed down (even including gas in many areas), but anything services-based is much higher. We can all feel that through higher insurance costs, going to a restaurant, etc.
Chappell Roan and Ethel Cain didn't endorse Harris due to Palestine
I really don't think the upthread comment was about "groceries" specifically, it was a claim that people are poorer. And they aren't.
I know that they have, but that's not why people voted for Trump. You just like to say that to try and make it look like something the libs brought on themselves.

And as you agreed, Trump does the same, more than anyone. So unless you are openly stating "the left should behave more decent than the right if they want votes", there is a problem in your logic as well.
If they were on their game it would just be "Big Switch".
> Otherwise, immigrants are generally taking jobs that Americans won't do.

Because the pay is terrible. Start paying well and plenty of Americans will want the jobs.

Working a low skilled job like fast food should be enough to pay for college so that it is possible to lift yourself up out of poverty.

We have created a two tier system and the educated class just makes excuses about why the system has to work the way it does today.

Let's re-embrace federalism then.

Let's make the Federal government primarily fund the armed forces, and certain things like airwaves, and flight. Then get it out of things that it doesn't need to regulate.

Half my non-federal taxes go to my local school. I'm cool with that. I also fund my local fire/police, local governments. I'm cool with that.

We need to restrain the interstate commerce clause; which is out of control. But yes, you are describing federalism. Let's make federalism great again.
is there have repo on git have please provide a link
Well, if they want to use conspiracy theories in their appeals, they are welcome to, and the Supreme court is basically in Trump's pockets, so they could always just make a "because we say so" ruling that annuls the state jury verdict.
If it hits major economic metrics in a way that makes him nervous, watch out for what he might do to the Fed. So long to a relatively-depoliticized institution. He was already grumbling about them in 2020. Hell he might just lead with politicizing the Fed. Guess we’ll see.
If Putin orders him to, he will.
Inflation is down prices aren't going to come down if we spend less.
HN is a pretty high trust site, I'd hope the community is still mature enough to self-moderate. Then again I was here when Terry would post his (admittedly) entertaining rants, the epic Michael O'Church essays, and flamewars between idlewords and pg. Maybe it always allowed for a little bit of funposting, in moderation.
Trump is a fuck-you vote from the economic losers of globalisation. They know he won't do anything for them, but they also know the other side won't either. All the pearl clutching about trumps characteristics from inner-city relativists fell on deaf ears because it rang hollow.

A women of the luxury belief professional class from an academic family and an uninspiring bureaucratic life story was never going to be able to talk to these people and she didn't really try too either.

The specific policies don't really matter to people when they are exhausted and angry. Revenge does.
Wait who cheated when? Maybe you should go to the capital and protest
No, my friends don't care about politics except that some of them went to vote.

If you went to vote you obviously care about politics at least a little. The idea Trump won because people don't care about politics but then went and voted for him is inherently self contradictory.

That they're simply "attached" to him because he's tall or whatever is obviously elitist and it's exactly this mentality that repulses the people who voted for him, ie the majority of the country.
Nintendo has fans because the software is good. Sure, the Switch was "underpowered", but if it plays the games I want to play, then who cares?

Also, I think the $700 PS5 Pro wants a word with you.

We saw initial traction with real estate firms extracting property data like rent rolls. But we've also seen traction in other verticals like accounting and intake forms. The original idea was very ambitious and when talking to potential customers they all seemed to be happy with the existing players.
Fair enough. Nate Silver was predicting a toss up, but was upfront that the model uses many simulations. Since the GP mentioned Nate Silver, I mistakenly took your comment about 538 as disagreeing with that since Silver did used to run 538.
The Biden-Harris administration said as much constantly.

When the gaslighting failed to achieve the desired effect (make everyone believe their grocery bill is half of what it actually is) - then they just changed the message to "those darn greedy mega corporations are price gouging you!".

The citizens of this country gave a large middle finger to the gaslighting and bullshittery that was the economic messaging coming from the Biden-Harris administration - and then when Harris failed to enumerate how her administration would be different than the existing one... she was doomed.
IMO it seems like you’re trying to make the situation fit your thesis and not the other way around.
For purposes of GP's example, yes, the entire population eats Little Caesars.

Even worse, my Kombucha went from $3->$4.

But, GP's example vibes with pretty much all food prices I've seen. McDonalds went from 2 for $3 to $3 each. It's really kind of surprising. Easy to avoid all this junk food, but price increases are very substantial.

Here's the CPI numbers for food [0] where we saw increases from 261 to 332. 27%

I think it's a cool achievement, but for some perspective NASA first did a vertical rocket ship landing without chopsticks decades ago.

And the whole point of this thing was to do that on the moon, which is never going to happen at this rate.
I find the experience of watching these SpaceX videos very emotional. There's something really inspiring both from an "exploring the universe" perspective and also just from the human side of all of the effort that went into them.

The first video that really got to me was when they landed multiple boosters. This one as well, especially seeing the rocket take off with every booster firing when compared with the first Starship launch when you could see that some failed to light. It's like watching your child take their first steps, and then seeing them win an Olympic medal for running. Just incredible stuff.
Or, pass a law restricting ownership by holders of SSN.
Only 1 example. I'm sure simpler things can be done such as preventing subsidized mortgages by non-citizens. Etc.

Of course, this is tough, which is why it would never be done. And that's why you lose elections. If a president won't do it, what makes anyone think that a cowardly congress would ?

Plus , the usual suspects of real estate inflation are urban centers with heavy if not complete 1-party control for years. So any attempt at national policy has no credibility when local policy -which is already in control- continues to ignore the problem.

Contrast this with Trump - say what you will, he is willing to take flack to do things that are very unpopular, and that's what makes him stand out. Remember the early innings on the border wall ? Walking out of Kyoto ? The collective meltdown.

Exactly.
I don't disagree, which is sort of my point. The democratic party apparatus and their allies don't want that platform/message.

I was mostly just pointing g out ghat there is a stance/platform that could combat right wing populism.
> "motivated reasoning"

Isn't that exactly what you're doing?
I’m not American, but for me it would matter a lot. Not aligning with the country’s best interests is a yuge dealbreaker.
My goal isn't to sway trump voters, they've already demonstrated time and time again, and again, and again, and again, that they have no intention of meeting liberals anywhere, let alone "in the middle", and that there's nothing, ever, ever that anyone could ever do to pry them away from their GEOTUS, so there's no real reason to try to appease them. So I'm left with just calling it like I see it.

Trump supporters blaming liberals' rhetoric for their decisions is a troll tactic: It's a way of trying to bait liberals into paying more positive lip service to Trump. And it works, all up and down the media organizations are terrified to say things that offend trump supporters. All for some vague belief that if they coddle his supporters enough they get some "centrist credibility" or something.
