Thank you for the article, it is a very clean and compelling angle on decision models

I wanted to comment because I would have liked to have heard more about Verdict

This financial loss is a report at a point in time about that point in time. A company's valuation is also reported at a point in time but it represents an aggregation of how much profit the company might generate across time (please forgive the layman's understanding). They are apples and oranges.

You aren't going to escape the association with President Donald John Trump. He is the present and future of the Republican party.

Leonard Leo's

The biggest obstacles to Chinese vehicle sales in the United States are political and they are tremendous. Whichever party is blamed for their entry will lose Michigan for a generation and car dealership owners across the country

That's where the power is

When kids have to buy a textbook for school the price goes way up

If you are considered to be rich in terms of ways and means and generous of spirit as well, you really have it made in the shade. Traditionally speaking.

It's funny you should turn the conversation to literature

I felt very seen when I read this story of Nathaniel Hawthorne's https://www.classicshorts.com/stories/ebrand.html

It's about a man who left home on a journey because something was bothering him and he didn't stop investigating until he figured out what it was.

It turned out (spoilers!) that he regarded his fellow men at an arm's length. He saw himself apart

I am of that kind and it causes me great pain. If I'm reading you right it seems you feel yourself in the thick of it with everyone. I hope you do not take that feeling for granted

Once you've made it this far, the new spectrum everyone is measured on is their magnanimity.

It's okay that you didn't turn out to be that magnanimous, but don't lie to yourself and pretend that you tried as hard as you could

You had more in your humanity tank than you knew you had

You've identified a load-bearing problem and it's worth naming

It's really funny. I would read HN headlines about PhD research in the area of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correctness_(computer_science) and it always seemed really boring

Now it is obvious to me how important this work is

Thomas Bayes would say that the population of people who hate Facebook is really big and the population of people who are scrupulous about whether or not their comments are specific to the matter at hand is relatively small

This approach accumulates codebase-understanding debt and the call to pay the piper could come at any time

At least in 2020 when I was in this pool, the rate for recent grads from an average program was $75k-$85k

The bendy arm people

>Sales and marketing, of course, were always and will always be a different story.

If we could fix these, we could have bike lanes in places where they make sense

It's more a post GamerGate understanding of a nerds vs the world narrative framing

>The phrase appeared in print in the 1885 biography of the noted swindler Joseph "Hungry Joe" Lewis, "King of the Bunco Men". The author writes:

>>It was always a saying with Joe that there was a sucker born every minute, and all through his business career he acted on that basis, and generally found a good crop of them

I would walk

Does the atmosphere stay attached to the earth due to the bending of time?

It seems like there is a genuine communication breakdown between management and engineering. Engineers know that there are vulnerabilities all over the place and that there have been for ages and that where the rubber hits the road every vulnerability does not represent a successful exploit by some nefarious actor.

Management can often treat cybersecurity like a black box that represents millions upon millions in liability. If Mythos represents an opportunity to bring management's understanding of the amount of "security vulnerability debt" everyone carries into the real world, it might be a good thing

For those who remember, the flagellum was a major site of the Intelligent Design debate that gave us Christopher Rufo (via the Discovery Institute)

The general idea was that there were specific examples of "irreducible complexity" that proved that there was an intelligent designer. The project on the part of certain Christian political factions was to add a veneer of hypothesis testing to creationism. The god of the gaps retreats further

>Therefore, there was a certain tendency to RETVRN to the golden age of geometry

Echoed in the LaRouchians of the 2000s. I don't know what they're up to now

There really ought to be a class of professionals like forensic accountants who can show up in a corrupted organization and do a post mortem on their management of technical debt

This ignores the career of Rush Limbaugh

I have loved Scratch for many years. This looks cool! Thank you for sharing!

Society is kinetic and disparate because of social media

We're all on top of one another, and different cross tabs feel different ways about the same thing. So there is room for empathy and antipathy to coexist

If you read the New York Times and The Atlantic there is lots of empathy for the male loneliness crisis

I am in between the age of you and your son it seems. As a man who has not missed any of the "misandry", I think the overly online conservative young men are an embarrassment and I hope they grow out of it

I have a lot of fun creating stories with Gemini and Claude. It feels like what Tom Hanks character imagined comic books could be in Big (1988)

I play once or twice a week and it's definitely worth $20/mo to me

To save the url length, why not hash all possible states and have the value of the variable in the query string refer to that?
