That could be skewed because they changed how M2 was calculated during the pandemic.

Frankly YT Premium pricing is ridiculous. It's not worth $23/mo for my family. That's way more than Netflix and Google doesn't even produce its own content... If it was cheaper I'd subscribe.

I'm not convinced. Passive income is a form of arbitrage. It means there is an inefficiency in the market and that person is fulfilling it. It's pretty rare that continues indefinitely without any effort. There may be a lot of

My opinion based on decades of experience in web development. I've been through this churn dozens of times, it is tiring. The other ecosystems I work with do not work this way and yet they still innovate a lot.

True but webpack itself had a ton of churn and made practically no effort to maintain backwards compatibility causing a ton of work with each major update.

Ideally we could learn how to make the existing tools better/faster and create software that can evolve rather than re-writing everything from scratch every six months.

Actually it tells me that the javascript ecosystem fails to build software that can adapt to change. The culture is to throw everything out and start fresh every time they want to do something different. It's terrible engineering.

I'm not so sure about that, Richard McElreath's Statistical Rethinking is an amazing resource.

Sigh another one? I thought Vite was the new thing.

Except in this case "investment" is more like buying a stock at it's peak maxing out your margin with a variable interest rate in a rising interest rate environment.

It's obvious Biden and congress are not primarily responsible for inflation, that's a combination of macro economic factors as well as the Federal Reserve's drastic actions. But not only did the COVID stimulus continue once t

I despise the fact that there is no right-click/context menu on the task bar. I use that frequently.

It's interesting if you read that article you posted the trend was pretty normal until COVID which speaks volumes. They blame it on the tax cut but the data just doesn't align with that theory. Specifically the chart at https:&#

Yes that will bring back the insects, in droves. It's a nightmare and you won't enjoy being in your yard at all.

I can't speak for others but I'd imagine you are talking about two different things. There's "learning css" in the sense of learning all the syntax & semantics. Tailwind does not help you here at all. Then th

Honestly just making them disclose trades before they make them would be a huge step forward. This wait 30 days nonsense is ridiculous.

So basically screw over your average mid to low income person that has less flexibility. This is not how we convince people to be sustainable.

You are looking at a massive outlier as well. Those people who are fortunate enough to be able to move within walking distance of their employment, and live in an area rich enough to have a wide variety of restaurants and shops in walking

Because it wouldn't be that useful. I'd grow tired/bored of the same restaurants all the time. When we go shopping once every week or two, we hit up a lot of different stores. It's doubtful they could support having a

I'm not against infrastructure to support walking and/or cycling. I'm an avid cyclist. I thoroughly believe people will bike/walk more if there is support for it in their neighborhood. But is it serving as a car replac

I mean an NN is, almost by definition, a weighted lookup table. The process to generate that table is not relevant.

by nightski 4y ago
I think this is backwards. Everyone assumes people are lazy because of the cars. I propose that cars were made because people are lazy (or, in reality, have no time in this dual income era we live in - walking takes a lot of time, even if

Personally I'm not worried about the end user using copyrighted code. That is their responsibility. If you have verbatim GPL code in your commercial closed source code base that is a liability and it might be dangerous to use copilot

They are taking your code verbatim and injecting it into numerous code bases around the world violating the license while getting paid for it?

Well a toddler isn’t making money off the information they are absorbing for one. If these are open to the public models that is one thing. But no, these are proprietary models whose sole purpose is to make money for large corporations.

The key is that data could not be shared outside of that company without the user's permission. Generally publicly traded stock does not entitle one access to data a company collects on users. If data is shared, for any reason outside

Most of the meat I buy is from a local farmer in the Midwest. We buy an entire cow at a time and some pork. Yes we eat meat outside of this, but it's not often. I don't need to solve the entire industry to take a different path

Cross domain tracking should be straight up illegal (or at a minimum completely opt-in only) along with sharing of consumer information between companies. Yes it might make things from a consumer stand point less convenient in some odd cas
