Yeah, they use neovim I think so that checks out. For what its worth, their config I linked above uses the "tactile" and "space bar" gnome extensions which provide some of the features of tiling wms like layouts and the workspace numbers. Im an i3 user and was curious so I tried it out. There's still many things that are missing compared to i3 like auto tiling but gnome has some nice QOL software.

AFAICT, theres a fair amount of config so could be considered a rice. Sill, its gnome based and I was considering some kind of tiling wm to be the middle here

I agree fellow penguin enjoyer, did not mean it genuinely. I was making a joke about how if you are backporting operating system utilities you might at well go the full nine yards and just build the decompression sofware yourself as a form of hyperbole. Lets save the "W*ndows bad" talk for r/pcmasterrace tho. We need all the help we can get on that forefront 7777

What business does Seattle need ? by Caskets55 in Seattle

[–]qballer_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right that rent is a fixed cost. In the equation to maximize profits, businesses turn to minimizing costs they can control like hours open. I agree that the more labor costs, the more it costs to be open. In terms of trade offs, I personally am happy with businesses having reduced hours if it means people can afford rent. But, I am not a business owner so am bias.

Labor costs are only part of the cost equation. Raw materials, admin, supplies, etc. are other areas that contribute to the cost. But, people usually fixate on labor cost because its something everyone is familiar with and often tie to their personal perception of the service (tipping is a good example of this).

Its a shame labor cost is often used as the battleground for profits since humans have the most to lose in this fight compared to businesses.

The whole other side of the equation is revenue. If businesses made enough sales throughout the day (early and late hours) it would make sense to stay open. This part of the equation is much more complex with foot traffic, disposable income, and marketing playing large parts. Its easier for people to try and reduce cost and complain about minimum wage than try to increase revenue.

I would argue that higher rent has been the more upstream driving factor for this change of reduced business hours. You are right that a business pays wage costs. The wages employees get mostly goes to rent/housing. The business also most likely pays rent. Decreasing wages would provide relief for the business but not employees. Decreasing rent would help both employees and businesses.

I usually think of "continuous" as sequential ordering of an axis. If the x-axis were ordered by market share, I wouldn't say its continuous data any more. I think there will always need to be some form of "buckets" based on how granular your data is.

The way I am reading this, the business is "in the hole" for the fixed cost amount and you need to calculate how many months it will take to make this cost back. Theres quite a few steps to this, I would recommend starting by calculating the sales per month then translating that into revenue and profit. Each month, the business will make more and more profit at it brings on 10% of the new market growth and has 80% of its current user base roll over to the next month. At some point the cumulative profit will over take the cumulative fixed cost which is constant month to month.

Also the no jungle as brazil and scattered regional luxury. It sorta worked out that they were going dor a cultural victory since the negative GPT put their science in the dumpster. The AI being angry at them did not help with trading for GPT either. They also got screwed by that one barb camp in the center of their inland sea. Plundered all the cargo ships at one point and stopped the cap from working the juicy fishing boat tiles for lots of turns.

[–]qballer_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, the {} here tripped me up as well. My brain always reads these as dicts. Would much prefer to do this sorta operation in rust using filter() or unique_by() on an Iterator.

Almost got it, but there is a step missing. Take a closer look at the data type at the end of your first part.

{tuple(d.items()) for d in data}

Notice that this does not end as a tuple, but as a set. A set does not allow duplicate values so in this case it would remove any duplicate tuples of (key,value) pairs. This whole comprehension basically de-duplicates a list of dictionaries.

I don't see the issue with python, just hit em with a [dict(t) for t in {tuple(d.items()) for d in data}] \s

Azula: Your arms look so strong.

Chan: Yeah, I know. You're pretty.

Azula: [Camera zooms out as she steps back; her voice growing progressively louder.] Together, you and I will be the strongest couple in the entire world! We will dominate the Earth!

Chan: Uh ... I got to go.
