It isn't even that.

Food and beverages can be produced by other countries, heavily are, and not strictly regulated.

Textbooks can be produced in India and there are many all over the internet. No government regulating the books here either in most cases beyond excluding certain topics.

There are armies of people producing excellent tutorials for YouTube on all manner of subjects, so the cost of learning has plummeted. The cost of proving you learned anything has not, but that isn't due to government regulation, but rather nobody accepts a Coursera certificate and most are skeptical of cheap online schools. Indeed, the government is probably the most accepting employer of cheap online universities.

This is the market speaking and saying that it doesn't want the alternatives for the reason the students are seeking education.

> I mean they (Google) do provide a service. One could possibly argue that the content creators should pay Google to distribute their material, kind of like an equivalent to a AWS bill, but is anyone arguing that?

People have argued this but Google has made it clear why they won’t charge - that is their moat. By pricing the service as free, they price out all competing services by making it so that all creators, new and old, will use YouTube by default. Especially with new creators, with no startup cost and a huge audience, there is no reason for to use any service that requires payment. This effectively tanks all competitors and is why the only surviving competing streaming services target niche audiences. For example, established creators who have the sway to bring an audience with them.

It’s probably worth pointing out that historically the majority of the wealthiest pockets of Chicago were on the south side. There are a lot of grand streets with magnificent homes, broad sidewalks with enough space for the tree canopies to develop nicely, etc. All that exists on the north side too, just not as frequently. And where it does it’s 2-3x more expensive.

There’s a couple streets down in Kenwood that I don’t think have any equivalent on the north side though…

I disagree with this. You can burn out when working less than 40 hours. You can not burn out when working way more than 40. It has a lot more to do with other factors, it's just that those factors will burn you out even quicker if you're working too many hours.

I'm incredibly burnt out currently, and I'm consistently at under 40 hours at my job.
This is because PG&E retail is about 2.5x the national average.

Also, worth noting in the event the conclusions are extrapolated to diesel over the road transportation: train diesel is much less expensive as it's exempt from fuel (state and federal) taxes.

I'm confused. Your phrasing suggests that you're adding in new and potentially conflicting information, but "many don't" and "some do" mean the same thing.
> What axiom lets either of us do an infinite number of steps and say we're finished?

The same one that says we can build the naturals from successors — without that, we don’t have all of the naturals. As I’ve been saying repeatedly, this is due to building sets from induction.

A limit L for an infinite sequence (an) is such that for any epsilon, there’s some n where after that n, | L - an | < epsilon. You have a set of rationals indexed by naturals building towards that real number — but you can do it the other way and define reals as those sets which converge to it.

> And as you keep adding more digits, I can keep telling you an infinite number of places that match.

The reals that are indescribable are truly weird: they look like subsets of N that are infinitely large but exclude infinitely many as well, without any pattern to inclusion or exclusion. And you can show this power set definition matches [0,1] by taking the binary 0 or 1 at position n to be if n is included in that subset.

To get rid of the weird reals, you need to force sequences like that out. What makes the reals larger is that they’re defined to include the limits of all converging sequences. Rationals don’t, eg, sqrt(2) or pi.

> But if we take turns, where I make a finite number of steps and you give me your next digit, then it's my turn again, I can keep matching you all day and all night.

But this doesn’t end in a bijection, because after you follow this construction for an infinite number of turns, I can name a real number not in your list — as my final move. That’s what the schema says: no matter how we construct the list, after it’s built, I can name a number outside of it. You’re not showing the list is complete, ie includes all reals, merely that we can include a particular number if I tell you it digit by digit — but we knew that by construction (ie, there will always be some countable converging sequence of rationals).

Every real is constructed by some countable sequence of digits; but there’s more real numbers than countable infinity.
Is there a way to generate a vim colorscheme given the background and foreground as used in this CSS?
For me (maintainer of Zed's vim mode) it comes down to a few things:

1. LSPs differ per-language, and so I'm never sure whether I'll get lucky today or not. It's more reliable for small changes to talk about them in terms of the text.

2. LSPs are also quite slow. For example in Zed I can do a quick local rename with `ga` to multi-cursor onto matching words and then `s new_name` to change it. (For larger or cross-file renames I still use the LSP).

3. I err as a human continually, for example in Rust a string is `"a"` and a char is `'a'`. It's easy for my javascript addled brain to use the wrong quotes. I don't know of any LSP operation that does "convert string literal into char literal" (or vice versa), but in vim, it's easy.

We are slowly pulling in support for various vim plugins; but the tail is long and I am not likely to build a vim-compatible Lua (or VimScript :D) API any time soon.

For example, most of vim-surround already works so you could get the most used parts of mini.surround to work with just a few keybindings `"s a":["vim::PushOperator", { "AddSurrounds": {} }]`, but rebuilding every plugin is a labor of love :D.
>Oh, please. Pray tell, inform us about how ISPs held back progress for 2 decades.

In most of the country, until Google Fiber started rolling out, we were stuck with cable companies offering a max of 5Mbps upload, and starting to push caps. In wide swaths of the US, that is still the case.

Meanwhile in many of the Nordic countries, Germany and parts of southeast Asia, people had 100Mb fiber to their homes in the early 2000s.

But yes, I'm ignorant and have no idea what I'm talking about...
I don't think that's a productive attitude. If you were someone's manager, and they had learned that they could get away with a lot under you, there's only so much time you could spend complaining about human nature. Really, it was your responsibility from the beginning. We're like those restaurant owners from Kitchen Nightmares who show up once a week to talk to our own bartender and don't know that the walk-in fridge is 75 degrees F and that there's raw chicken on the ground.
That’s part of what makes them trustworthy.
> The cost of praise is small. The value to others is inestimable.

Cannot overstate this point. Many people I've worked with (myself included) have suffered from imposter syndrome at one point or another. Hearing from your manager or someone you respect that you've done a good job often makes a world of difference.
Following you since very long, your journey is so inspiring!
Yeah, they changed the default colorscheme in neovim at some point in the last year or so. I have an extremely minimal
config and don't even use syntax highlighting or tab completions but I could not get it to render the way it used to. I wasted at least 30 minutes on this for absolutely no good reason. So I git bisected, made my own build (which took maybe 10-15 minutes) and will likely never upgrade neovim again.

Billionaire downplays effects of job displacement/replacement for low-income workers, gee, what else would anyone expect?

The internet era created MASSIVE amounts of job and opportunity growth for all levels of workers. AI doesn't offer the same for low-income workers, it's primarily aimed at business OWNERS.

There's a big difference.

for me, the most important lesson i've learned when using websockets is to not use them whenever possible.

i don't hate them, they're great for what they are, but they're for realtime push of small messages only. trying to use them for the rest of your API as well just throws out all the great things about http - like caching and load balancing, and just normal request/response architecture. while you can use websockets for that it's only going to cause you headaches that are already solved by simply using a normal http api for the vast majority of your api.

Yeah, probably. Nostr is quite hated by the Hacker News community from what I have observed. This is most likely because it's used by folks that are into freedom technologies that explicitly don't allow excluding any users from participating. And so it attracts people that are into bitcoin, Tor, cryptography, etc. "Crypto" is actually quite hated at Nostr and you get called out for bringing any stupid crypto coins. You are free to talk about anything though and the system can't block or exclude you, but people may mute you in their clients.
I think the answer is the first word in your sentence. How many times have you stayed at a hotel? Now how many times have you stayed at a hotel because they promoted a good work space? Both cost about the same to run, and one has a much greater need.

About half of the police force is military in the first place (Gendarmerie). It's typically split between the purely civilian National Police (urban areas) and Gendamerie (everywhere else).

In any case, if there is any sort of kidnapping or hostage taking they send the tactical units.

To foreigners, GIGN is perhaps best known for being one of the counter-terrorist teams in the Counter Strike game.

I think you’re just highlighting the different preferences people have between a text editor and an IDE. Obviously the line between the two is very blurry. I much prefer being able to efficiently edit text myself rather than relying on refactoring tools.
Crypto aside, kidnappings for ransom are already embedded in a game theoretic protocol. The weights involved (e.g. the amount and probability of payout, the likelihood that you'll actually get to spend that payout, the penalty and probability of being captured, the likelihood of cooperation of victim and friends) are all determined via policy choices made by the state; these are things like regulating banks or making spending decisions re: policing and other such things. They determine how probable the crime is.

The cryptocurrency proposition is that that solution can be improved upon without implicitly trusting the state. I don't have that solution myself, but I'm not convinced that it can't exist. We'll know they've found it when these things stop happening, and it starts feeling like the riskier thing is to keep your money in a bank. Or maybe what they come up with doesn't feel like money at all, who knows.

When I try to imagine such a protocol, it involves a web of trust and crowd-sourced metadata such that people can refuse to accept coins which don't also come with proof that they're involved in activity that those people consent to. (A deficiency of dollars being that when I accept one I have no idea whether the loan that created it is for a venture that helps me or harms me, or whether the previous owner got it as a kidnapping ransom).

In such a scenario, the ransomed coins become useless without a backstory that identifies them to the recipient as non-harmful. If that backstory becomes prohibitively difficult to fabricate, then perhaps the crime doesn't happen.
> We're like those restaurant owners from Kitchen Nightmares who show up once a week to talk to our own bartender and don't know that the walk-in fridge is 75 degrees F and that there's raw chicken on the ground.

Who's "we" in this sentence? Plenty of us have known about the "raw chicken on the ground" for years and actively try to do something about it. A better question for this discussion is why have you been looking away for so long, and what are you going to do now that you see the problem?
I don't really understand what you're asking for. You can easily just verify the claim for yourself.

The limit as x goes to infinity of (ln x) / (x^k) is zero for all positive k. So if you want to approximate the behavior of a logarithm with a function of the form f(x) = x^k, k must be greater than 0 [because x^0 = o(ln x)], but less than every positive real number. This is the definition of an infinitesimal.

That's why it makes sense to say that x (log x)^3 is equivalent to x^{1.000000...[infinite 0s]...1}. Though in this analogy, it's more like x^{1.000000...3}.

Why is nature vs nuture always posed as this weird holistic binary. Anyone who has thought about it for more than 3 seconds should understand that not only is it not binary, but also so much of our behavior is shaped independently.

Have you ever been able to change your own behavior? That's nurture. Have you ever had a hard time changing your behavior? That's nurture.

It's like asking is the air carbon dioxide or oxygen? It's both and they do different things.
Crypto doesn't have one ideology (and Trump has no ideology). The "number go up" faction isn't opposed to fiat. Many libertarians think that only the government can harm them so they only want to limit government power; they're fine with corporate power. Put that together and you get the current situation.

Just had a look - it appears you’ve got nine .com domains registered with your brand name in the same second on GoDaddy: explore/get/join/meet/my/team/the/tryEXAMPLE.com and EXAMPLEconnect.com.

The Cloudflare redirect likely has GoDaddy underneath, based on what’s visible at myEXAMPLE.com/lander and others.

Half of the domains are set for Outlook Mail, the other for Google Mail which points to a potential email game.

It doesn’t make things safer that your brand name is a top-400 frequency word in one of the European languages. Not owning your .com and having a dozen businesses with similar names just compounds the risk.
