Meanwhile cigarettes, which are also cancer linked, are legal with a warning and some picture on them. And alcohol, which is also linked to cancer, is legal, with a warning on it. And (non-self driving) automobiles, which kills tens of thou

memorization is not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about 1. you have a problem, you try something and it doesn't work. 2. you find an LLM and it "gives" you the answer with one or two tries 3. problem solved!

I think the prospect of an impending SEC or other investigation is only one factor in stocks losing value. They highlight inflated sales and financial irregularities like a chain of companies that engage in self-dealing, but are portrayed a

Aside from the obvious risk of short selling is the tornado of lawsuits and threats that arise from targeting shady companies. Just because some company is accused shenanigans or breaking the law doesn't mean they won't try to lit

I think its brought attention to numerous cases of accounting and other shenanigans. What I've noticed, casually, is that they often target companies or management with a pattern of fraud and abuse, and surprise they keep doing it.

They are short sellers, were you expecting roided out pro-wrestlers with tats and wild hair or something?

I had the same idea. Maybe it's a subtle message? Everyday, at the same time, in the same place, play that instrumental DJ set and with a blank document write down whatever comes to you. Let me know what you find.

There's something to be said for that approach. It's not the only approach, and definitely as someone once said, premature optimization is the root of all evil, and maybe you are optimizing at exactly the right time. Who can tell?

Government regulations (like not polluting the water or forcing your workers into 40 hours a week of unpaid overtime) may be part of it. But China has been known to "dump" commodities into foreign markets to destroy those markets

At least on TV, while the first officer is "running their plates" a second k9 unit rolls up and the dog jumps around and pops the bad guy with his 50kg of contraband. Or at least that was the way it was shown on this one episode o

Well, with all due respect to the heroic efforts of the vast majority of the DEA, if we judge them by their total success or failure, I'd have to go with "failure" as far as the US is concerned. Being a massive drug market wi

Maybe dividing opinions and advocacy into two parts like so: Does the opinion or advocacy have a direct bearing on the success or improvement of the company? If yes, it's a good co-worker thing; share it If no, it's a irritating

Supposedly these "no code" sites can stand up a basic infra with very little effort. If so, have a no code site set up a mail host. It might still not be trivial but it might be much easier?

I remember reading someone talking about how Proton couldn't be that secure (ultimately) because they relied on a javascript front end. I recalled this when I read some crypto security efforts were focused on removing any javascript de

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that Musk is concerned about getting his fill of: 1) "hardcore" engineers, who I suspect aren't necessarily h1bs, but h1bs are the cudgel to motivate his workforce, and

I agree with you, or rather I think the barriers to farming are becoming lower, so maybe we should reconsider that homestead? If this no-code stuff isn't a bunch of malarkey, it might be lowering the barrier to self-hosting that we&#x2

I am a fan of proton, but we should always be ready for the bad news that forces us into another provider or self-hosting. Sooner or later it always happens. Like lavabit or anon-penet.fi, cases where things go tits up for non-provider rela

As you note it's not built into other legal systems. In which case, those other legal systems aren't automatically corrupt or based on extortion. A legal system is designed to advance a purpose: justice, the protection of citizens

If the manager's neck was on the line for poor candidate hiring and low morale, I suspect they mire hire more carefully and manage more effectively.

Do we really know which crazy billionaire is the lesser of two evils? We can merely choose between which is the seemingly better known evil. Self hosting is a way to go. It would be nice if one of those "no code" shops could mak

I think it's not about encryption as to the primitive tooling of Proton's calendar import, and maybe a little inflexibility on the author's part. That's how I read it.
