Anything I can understand is simple. Anything I cannot understand is complicated. Therefore the whole world should revolve around me.

You only have to configure this once. Don't install too many things. Just what you need. This level of complexity is needed because this is not TempleOS in which all software is made by one person. Most software exists to bridge the Tower of Babel lost in translation scenario.

I am pretty sure this simulator doesn't reinvest dividends.

I think it is an ad for an app doesn't reinvest dividends either.

A lot of Blub programmers exist. To them anything like Haskell is a weird language.

How does this explain the existence of televangelists, megachurch pastors, church ladies, gurus, generally abusive people in religion?

What is the difference between Supabase and PostgREST https://postgrest.org/en/stable/

I know Supbase is a sponsor of the PostgREST.

In Kerala, whites, blacks, far east asians and Jews are part of this caste https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anjuvannam it is a type of caste meant for traders and merchants. Because ancient Kerala experience of whites, blacks, far east asians and Jews are as traders.

e.g. this trader from China came via sea to Kerala https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zheng_He

I shiver with fear at the thought of things moving using two legs. Eight legs good, two legs bad!

Good that you bring this up. Other comments here do not seem to be aware that this study is only saying one type of just world believers are likely to be dishonest.

Others here seem to think all just world believers are likely to be dishonest.

Just because you think the world is unjust doesn't mean you are likely to be honest.

What matters is what you think about others. Do you think other people are living in a just world? e.g. do you think homeless people are mostly drug addicts? If you do then it is very likely you are a dishonest person.

I wish there was a book about how all the best practices emerge from mathematical category theoretic constructs. Once I tried mentioning it and got fired. Because only great gurus like Martin Fowler and Eric Evans are allowed to see patterns.

By seeing best practices emerge from eternal structures of mathematics, often we are able to derive situations when best practices do not work too.

This book is good: https://bartoszmilewski.com/2014/10/28/category-theory-for-p...

Relevant quote from the preface:

> Changes in hardware and the growing complexity of software are forcing us to rethink the foundations of programming. Just like the builders of Europe’s great gothic cathedrals we’ve been honing our craft to the limits of material and structure. There is an unfinished gothic cathedral in Beauvais, France, that stands witness to this deeply human struggle with limitations. It was intended to beat all previous records of height and lightness, but it suffered a series of collapses. Ad hoc measures like iron rods and wooden supports keep it from disintegrating, but obviously a lot of things went wrong. From a modern perspective, it’s a miracle that so many gothic structures had been successfully completed without the help of modern material science, computer modelling, finite element analysis, and general math and physics. I hope future generations will be as admiring of the programming skills we’ve been displaying in building complex operating systems, web servers, and the internet infrastructure. And, frankly, they should, because we’ve done all this based on very flimsy theoretical foundations. We have to fix those foundations if we want to move forward.

Peak energy deserves more discussion. The world uses 150 petawatt-hours which will be 300 petawatt-hours in 45 years.

No matter what we do, what energy source we use, we cannot meet these exorbitant demands for energy.

e.g. you'd have to build 1031 nuclear reactors per year for 45 years starting today to generate 300 petawatt-hours.

AMTD is not a memestock. /r/wallstreetbets do not want to have anything to do with it.

> A 10X engineer is not someone who just working 10X better than everyone else. A 10X engineer is the type of person helps make 10 other people better than they were before

Everybody (including me) is a hero in our own minds. I doubt anyone sees themselves as the type of person who make 10 other people worse than they were before.

I wager this phenomena cannot be replicated. This is like the priming research which couldn't be replicated. But marketing people spend a lot of money on it.

The hacker is somehow siphoning the gas to a miner that they also own.

Senior developers usually don't know any DevOps. CRDs, Operators etc are too advanced. And DevOps people keep inventing new words.

HECNet still uses DECNet. See: http://mim.stupi.net/hecnet.htm

Crypto uses less energy than huge data-centers. Hear me out: Proof-of-Stake is more energy efficient than a data-center and runs on small devices like Raspberry Pi. Modern blockchains like MINA only store the ZK proof for the whole chain, so, even the storage requirements are very minimal.

Already a 6 kW rack will soon cost 7500 Euro in Germany. After that that will be the case around the world. That is when Web 3.0 will make a comeback.
