And what is your recourse? There's no private cause of action for HIPAA violations.

True, I was a bit extreme. Maybe I should say we’re not creating policies encouraging eating corn instead of chickens, when both are digestible by humans.

I would be curious how this compares to land-based meat production where we use 2-40x of food input to meat output. But nobody suggests reorganizing the economy to eat grass.

If you need same day/local service, I’ve found our local Walmart to be cheaper and much higher quality than the Kodak kiosk inside the local CVS stores. Not sure how Walgreens compares.

I wonder if it could be considered securities fraud, in the Matt Levine sense of "Everything is Securities Fraud."

I certainly would take CEO approval rating and employee's reviews of overall job satisfaction into account when investing in a company. If you see very low reviews, you know the company is under-investing in employees and will likely need to increase spend on employee retention in the coming years, which is not reported in their current financial reports. Likewise, if you want to be cynical, a consistent 5 star company has some fat it could trim, which would increase it's investment value.

Perhaps we'll see a shareholder lawsuit following a mass employee resignation event which was arguably concealed by manipulating employee reviews.

Ahh 00s/10s era ING Direct and TreasuryDirect. I think TreasuryDirect finally dropped the virtual keyboard in the last couple years.

Do you mean a different domain? mail-checker.com Looks like a parked spam domain.

You could try embedding the two codes with an LLM and run any number of similarity measures on the output vectors.

Is there any way to do this on iPhone? I use a Google Voice number since Google Voice came out, and I would love to iMessage from it, but Apple won't let me add it as a number for the device.

Not anymore! https://github.com/HackerNews/API

Oh that's too harsh. Don't forget, you could subscribe to this valuable and expensive to run HTTP handler for an ongoing $45/year.

I wish I could play around with Spanner for personal/side projects, but a production ready instance starts at $65/mo. DynamoDB can run for ~$0.00/month with per-request pricing.

I may be the only one not familiar, but nom refers to https://github.com/rust-bakery/nom which looks like a pretty handy way to parse binary data in Rust.

Somewhat aside, I love the graphical display of the benchmark results: https://fitzgeraldnick.com/media/bumpalo-switch-to-downwards... --I think I'll start doing that when I run benchmarks in the future.

In coffee shops the conversation has approximately 0 to do with you (ok, maybe you overhear about a new local restaurant). In the office you overhear conversations that are much more relevant and, therefore, harder to tune out.

$50/$500 is a 10%/year yield, which is hard come by in any guaranteed investment. The Crocs will likely have no retained value, while the $500 shoes may be worth something after 10 years.

However, that ignores the cost of maintaining a nice pair of shoes (both money and time) as one needs to clean, polish, and resole every so often.

You might want shoes in two or three colors/styles, which would make the Crocs last 2-3x longer, same for the other shoes, but are you really going to want the same expensive shoes in 30 years?

I think the higher end stuff that retains value and requires less maintenance might be a better example, like if someone is good at buying watches they could get a Rolex that appreciates in value and ends up costing them nothing vs a series of cheaper watches. Or compare to a $500 Apple Watch you replace every couple years. I don’t wear watches, though, and I’m not good at buying or selling them.

Really, I think there are some expensive, durable goods that last longer and are cheaper you might think, but still more expensive once you take into account the maintenance and time value of money. But nice stuff is nice to have, and it’s helpful that you don’t have to replace it so often.

This is why HFTs pay so much for order flow from retail firms. Large orders on the books at public exchanges are subject to informed traders, while retail orders from Robinhood are random (or worse).

To some extent, the war on drugs is a war on minorities is a political war on the left.

If you trust GitHub you could curl https://github.com/capableweb.keys on startup

Also, if you want to be able to create legitimate projects that are not tied to your real-world identity, you need a break between bank -> exchange -> address -> ??? -> contract deployment address.

Yuck, it seems like no exceptions, minimums, or safe harbors that I can find. Definitely something to keep in mind and save/price accordingly. Seems like bootstrapped software needs to charge 30-50% more than 2021 and prior, at least for the first 5 years.

Oh that's pretty cool. It looks like there are no fees for the service (at least for now), where Venmo has a 1.75% fee ($0.25 min $25 max) and Cash App has a 0.5%-1.75% fee ($0.25 min) for the same instant withdrawal service.

GPT-3 Prompt:

A broadcast from the Super Bowl:

Reporter: "How does it feel to have won the Super Bowl?"

Star quarterback:

Completion:

"It feels amazing. We worked so hard all season and to finally have won the championship is truly a dream come true. I'm so proud of my teammates and coaches for their dedication and hard work. It's been a long journey and I'm so grateful for this victory."

I did a version of this in elementary through high school. Lend someone $1 for the vending machine today. If they blow off repaying you, don't lend them $5 for lunch tomorrow.

Is geothermal any quieter? I was assuming the ground loop pump would be quieter than the air-to-air fan.

I used them as a “virtual travel agent” similar to the prompt on https://github.com/f/awesome-chatgpt-prompts#act-as-a-travel...

It’s nice to be able to respond, “I’ve done 1 already, 2 is too far a drive, and 3 is not my vibe, give me 3 more options” and get a good result. I even asked it “what would the iCal format for doing this activity next Tuesday at 11am look like” and it generated one reasonably close (though in UTC time zone).

Haven’t seen my related use case mentioned: I frequently upvote posts as a private favorites list, as favorites is public and can feel kind of revealing.

You could also voluntarily share the device location with Apple and friends as part of reporting it stolen. I don’t really care if Apple knows where my stolen phone is after it’s stolen.

Yes, the state bar will generally refer you to a lawyer in good standing who is familiar with the practice area and is willing to do a 30 min to hour consultation for a flat rate.
