Wait why is this on the front page? I thought this is a very established and well-known tool

Also frameRate() with 120 or higher will make it go a bit faster. But it seems like there is a limit. I'm not familiar with p5.

I don't think it's fair to blame the SVB depositors for the bank run. Perhaps you can blame public figures (VCs etc) who catalyzed it. Once a run starts, though, it's in your interest to run too.

If you had >250k in SVB and you managed to get it out before it was shut down, you'd be pretty happy with yourself right now. If you run a business and have an obligation to share-holders, it would be negligent not to try this at least.

The 250k is messaging to minimize moral hazard. You want banks and depositors invested in minimizing their own risk.

I'd guess hesitancy to immediately declare full guarantee of funds is also due to these concerns (although there may be other reasons as well). The sweet spot here maximizes the appearance of consequences while minimizing actual fallout.

I think you learn the box-and-arrow diagrams in an algorithms class. You learn about cache and memory in a systems class. When you get a real job, if someone asks you to write a performant binary tree in a low-level language, you combine knowledge from both these experiences and make an inference on what to do. Maybe you try, test, and iterate. Maybe you read some blog posts or find a canonical implementation in another language.

Either way, it doesn't seem like a huge knowledge gap.

Yes, but they take 1-3 days in my experience. I'm not sure why the parent wouldn't have used them in this case except that they also require sharing of very sensitive information, which doesn't work too well unless transferring within family/close network.

The VC model has to consider the expectation that most investments will be a complete loss. To have even a hope of ~20% return every investment has to have a path to $xxxB. Otherwise it’s not worth including.

I’m not sure why I’m the first to point this out on HN (which is usually a pretty skeptical group) but “aphantasia” is very poorly studied (1). I’ve met plenty of people who claim to have it but it seems more like a failure of language to compare experience. That explanation seems more reasonable to me than a few people are wired differently.

It removes the tax benefit of realizing profits abroad, which would likely bring revenue back to the market where it was earned.

I suppose a company could still move profit wherever they choose, but mostly likely inertia would keep it in place.

I guess it’s just the premise.

Retiree transforms his life and solves all his problems by doing exactly what he was going before only... more carefully? And duel is certainly absurdist.

I enjoyed the film, but I think it’s intention is largely opposite what is being received here.

As a person who has yet to be involved with the creation of children I am curious:

What kind of issues could a change in kicking indicate?

If there were an issue what, if any, interventions do doctors have at their disposal to make things better?

I agree that not everything is an ad. I think the parent comment is fairly trite.

I do believe all content made for consumption (even purely informational content) is attention-seeking.

Doesn’t all content exist to receive attention?

I think there would be exceptions, like test sites, personal experiments etc. that could make it on to the internet without seeking attention, but any content designed for consumption is attention-seeking.

This is the kind of setup I would expect. What kind of place do you work (big/small, tech/not)?

This is the kind of obstacle I assume big tech companies have worked out extremely well, but small-midsized non-tech companies probably get horribly wrong.
