"A 4.9 Mkm2 region of the southwest Pacific Ocean is made up of continental crust. The region has elevated bathymetry relative to surrounding oceanic crust, diverse and silica-rich rocks, and relatively thick and low-velocity crustal structure. Its isolation from Australia and large area support its definition as a continent—Zealandia. Zealandia was formerly part of Gondwana. Today it is 94% submerged, mainly as a result of widespread Late Cretaceous crustal thinning preceding supercontinent breakup and consequent isostatic balance. The identification of Zealandia as a geological continent, rather than a collection of continental islands, fragments, and slices, more correctly represents the geology of this part of Earth. Zealandia provides a fresh context in which to investigate processes of continental rifting, thinning, and breakup."
Doesn’t matter, as long as you are making money.
This looks great!

I'm highly interested about the error handling and testing baked into it.

Moving away from the most common shell syntax is a bold move, but not necessarily a bad one, shell scripting needs some fresh air :)
> The way I understand L3, there's no such thing as "fundamental value". There's only market value

I think control theory works better at describing these factors, as L1-L2-L3 suggest some derivative relations that its's not really there.

you have your set point, which is the hard company value. you have n proportional forces, each proportional to the distance from the company current value and that of every put and call on the market. you have a damping effect in the form of HFT, and you have an integrative term, which acts weird because it's applied inversely proportional to the short positions, and it's the lending cost on the short positions.
Thank you!
Exactly what we are currently experiencing with the integration team. Essentially creating more time to focus on understanding and solving the business problem at hand, and spend less time creating the implementation. Which in return frees up engineering to solve more challenging problems.

Also really excited see devs open sourcing solutions like CRM starter projects etc.

Citibank did not fat finger. They have have made an appropriate transfer to an appropriate destination under an incorrect internal book keeping line item. That's why the case was not about a wire being reversed - rather it was the case if the under their agreement with a customer that not on schedule payment could have been used by the customer to complete a transaction.
Love reading the risk factors section. First thought: how can a lay person possibly understood the risks as laid out here?

Also they view this as a major risk: •the identification of Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous person or persons who developed Bitcoin, or the transfer of Satoshi’s Bitcoins;

Second thought, what an incredible business and growth.

1.14bn in revenue on 193bn in trading volume: thats 60bps on every dollar traded. These are insane fees ripe for disruption.
Wonderful! Not sure how I missed it the first time. Thanks for correcting me.
Let's spell out the deeper reason: These people rely on personal interactions, charisma and the illusion of work afforded by on-site presence.

It's much easier to identify the real workers in a remote setting.

You can also see it in open source projects like Python, where always the same people go to sponsored core developer summits where nothing is achieved apart from showing presence, being in the in-group and gaining power.
BeeHively Group is a manufacturer of bee and honey by-products that propagates sustainable practices in beekeeping. The company is working with tribal beekeepers and apiculturists and connecting their hard work to our clients worldwide looking to buy honey in bulk, bee by-products and beekeeping equipment. Honey is obtained directly from the beekeepers and farmers spread all over India's length and breadth.
And at the same time, they're influencing history. For better or worse, I guess we'll have to see.
sometimes I just say things very bluntly because others are doing it but wont say it

this is very intentional as opposed to misreading the room, as its definitely for introspective purposes, but maybe I could fit on some part of the spectrum solely for thinking its okay to say divisive things!
This is basically like the HMAC(secret, acct#) suggestion further up in the thread. Macaroons are an extension of this idea -- a chain of HMACs instead of a single one.

The idea is to limit the power of the credential, so that when it's stolen, the negative impact is mitigated.

In the paper, they compare macaroons to plain cookies. When you steal a cookie these days, you can take control of an entire account -- maybe even change the password, etc.

In this situation, with the simple HMAC / guid / hash, once somebody "steals" the URL, then it can be leaked to everybody, forever. It can't be fixed without "breaking" the app.

The macaroon technique can also solve the expiration issue. In my post, I described how you would add a caveat for the filename. You can also add a caveat based on time. So then stealing the Macaroon would only authorize the attacker for a limited team -- even a single request (this is talked about in the paper).

A legitimate user can be minted new macaroons constantly based on his login. But the attacker can be locked out based on the expiration. So the attacker's problem is elevated from stealing a single cookie/macaroon to stealing either the login or ALL macaroons, which is generally harder. With Macaroons, you don't have credentials of full power constantly traveling back and forth over the network.

That is my understanding anyway... actually implementing it will probably reveal some more insights.
Unclear if simply from previous lists which have been checked against the above services for password reuse

I hope they do. They're great. I make sure to work with these firms and not local families for my own residential needs because I don't want to put money in the pockets of evil people playing anti-social strategies. It is stomach-churning to know that many of the same people who line up at the microphone on Wednesday night to block development would then call me back on Thursday morning to respond to my inquiries on their rental listings. With the corporates I am at least paying someone to fight against entropy to bring homes into existence, not just to maximize what they can extract from what they bought in the 70s.

I think the problem here is that oil is not drifting but gushing out. Platelets don't get a chance to do their thing until bleeding mostly stops; in this case we need to apply a tourniquet first.
Those who use ansible can use ansible-vault to encrypt credentials (http://docs.ansible.com/playbooks_vault.html) and chef has encrypted data bags (https://docs.chef.io/chef/essentials_data_bags.html). Really, any raw config shouldn't ever make it in the repo anyway, other than sample.conf.
Yes, I'm purposefully ignoring physical security, because I'm thinking of the kind of threats nvidia faces.

It is important to have a security policy that fits your threat level, and the engagement of your employees. You can expect from an upper management person that he has a fast lock screen and an encrypted disk and a tight firewall on his laptop. In those conditions it makes absolute sense to recommend a password manager, preferably with a hardware security key. That's a fully decked-out APT resistant upper management guy or sysadmin. This is also the sort of target that would be the subject of a 'pizza girl' covert operative, so yes having passwords on post-its would be horrible.

But that's not the type most likely got Nvidia. The other 50.000 employees is what is getting our big corporations in trouble. A poorly secured Windows laptop with out of date software, and no control on third party applications, that's a terrible place for a password manager. How easy is it to write a tool that extracts passwords from the manager if your tool got sysadmin rights by posing as a Java plugin installer, or a cracked video game?

The sort of hacker that targets those employees is not necessarily an APT, more likely as mentioned before the passwords of these employees were gotten from big fly-by password leaks like the PSN hack. This sort of hacker wouldn't even look at your physical security, they don't care about your physical security, they're likely across an ocean from you, and likely wouldn't even drive by your office if it was in the same town as they are.

The game is seggregating your security levels, and minimizing attack surface where possible. Standardizing a password manager across 50.000 low-tech employees sounds like a bad idea to me.

> I do think the blog post implies that v8 can't do polymorphic inlining.

It took me a bit to realize where this confusion comes from (especially given the whole discussion of how polymorphic property access is handled). Is it due to "Undiscussed - Not all caches are the same" section?

Indeed V8 can't at the moment do polymorphic inlining at non-method callsites - f(), however it can on method callsites o.m().

The reason for this is lack of type feedback.

I will seek to clarify the wording in that section.

I'm living in Sweden at the moment (am Dutch myself) and am quite disappointed with the response to the crisis. I live in a shared house (12 people) and many are still going to work as normal. One works in social services and sees dozens of asylum seekers every day, she has gotten very little guidance and there has been very little action in terms of prevention even though they have had people getting sick with COVID-19 already. Others are on paid leave now but it doesn't seem consistent across the board. The speech of the prime minister yesterday was very mild, basically just counting on citizens' personal responsibility.

Not that I think the Netherlands is doing much better though. Overall I think it's very frustrating to see the extremely slow response in both Europe and the US after seeing multiple countries deal with the pandemic more or less successfully.
At least I'm getting it from both sides:

This doesn't matter at all to Google's cars. They are designed to ignore the speedlimit in favour of the real speed of traffic around it[1], as it has been proven to be far safer than slowing down. It's currently caped at 16km/h over but this is an arbitrary limit.

Canada has created a ratcheting mechanism that ends with the satisfaction of rent seekers. Consider, interest rates are 2-3%, but returns on housing are far higher. Why? People MUST have a residence, so many are herding together with bunks so a 2 bedroom has 2 bunks in each bedroom = 4 people x 2 = 8 people diving rents. Often married +2 kids etc etc.
As lomg as they keep a low profile and do not party hard they fly under the radar. Many have no cars.
How to fix? Easy. declare rentals a business, thus the cities will add a business tax. The business tax ruins the positive rent seeking feedback by extracting money and making the rentals uneconomic. If they sell to an owner who lives there = no business = no business tax. This will cause an inexorable decline in the rent seeking aspects and a growth in owners who live there. You can exempt owners who live there from paying a business tax of they rent out a bedroom.
Hypothetically, if I can hire a PhD candidate and give him a million bucks to tweak the sensors for my brain specifically. Could he or she then make this like a joystick. Is the issue that there's so much variation between people.
Yes - I certainly agree that loners are more vulnerable. I might argue that “outsider” is a broader category though and more likely garner the (destructive) attention of the dominant group.
The Kanji Kentei tests production. I probably couldn't even produce 500 kanji without a computer/phone), and I don't think I will ever make it much further than that, because why bother? When would I ever need to handwrite kanji without access to a digital dictionary?

Recognition, however, is an entirely different story. To be able to recognize 98% of words, which is approximately the amount you need to be able to deduct the meaning of the remaining words from context, in the average novel you need something like 3000-3500 kanji.

The good news is recognition is much easier to achieve than production. With Heisig you can learn the first 2000 kanji (recognition only) in about 3 months, the next 1000 are more difficult because they're less common, but still it's nothing compared to passing even the lower levels of the Kentei.
No, you are confusing with involution. 1/x is an involution. Symetries are often involutions.

Squaring a upper triangular matrix with 0 on the diagonal is nilpotent. Derivatiting a polynomial of degree N is nilpotent after N iteration.
Topic aside that is an excellent comedy video. If SNL made this as a "digital short" it would be the best thing they'd had done all year.
I agree with your assessment. I think GUIs are great things that you don't do often enough to memorize (or for things that are inherintly visual, but not relevant here) but they are often looked down on.

There are many people who do enough git to know how it works well and be familiar enough with enough of the commands that they don't need a GUI and are likely faster on the command line. But for every one of those people there are at least 2 who would work faster, and more accurately with a good GUI.
ByTheoremUse goes all the way back to Euclid.

It says that "a theorem can used in a proof."

It is part of many modern logic systems.

Löb’s result depends on Gödel numbers, which are invalid in

foundations because the Gödel number of proposition does not

include the order of the proposition.

ByTheoremUse works fine for Dedekind's axiomatisation of the

natural numbers using unaccountably many axiom instances :-)

I doubt it, to be honest. In my experience, universities are locally consistent: the E&M class isn't going to contradict quantum, at least by much. And once you're out of undergrad, it's pretty easy to figure out what's going on, given the context.

If we try to standardize, we'll end up with some awful compromise position that no one likes. For example, I still dislike the push for MKS units where CGS would work much better, such as E&M, plasma physics, and much of astrophysics.
+1 - Thinkpads work out of the box in my experience, and with a bit of tweaking, I managed to move my parents to Linuxes (Mint) on "random Windows laptops" - a Compaq and a 17" HP.

But I guess it was just luck of the draw - YMMV.
Predictably the top comment here says that this is unjust. No idea why....
> But since Coinbase is claiming 98% of coins are stored offline, that means at least 98% of users aren't using multisig.

Almost... you should say instead: "that means at least 98% of coins aren't using multisig" because without having their internal account metrics it is wrong to assume to that 98% of Coinbase users deposited 98% of BTC at Coinbase...
You close your eyes during meditation.
I think as a first order approximation the level to which you can deploy TDD is inversely proportional to how difficult your problem is with regards to computational complexity. The most TDD’able code is a freshman level CS 100 programming assignment. The least TDD’able are things like real time simulations, numerical computing, machine learning, etc. In the latter case, you can TDD the boring parts (reading inputs, simple pure functions, etc) but TDD breaks down quickly if you have a huge state space, side effects, complex outputs, etc.
I said what? If this was in person, I'm confident I was both drunk and joking.
Not a fan of the concept of TDD as is, but I have adopted it as the approach to bug fixing.

Usually I start with reproducing the bug in specs, with at least one or more specs failing due to the bug. Then I go on to fix the bug and see the specs turn green. I think TDD is pretty well suited for the use case.

It is interesting that the choice of the left image tends to come from people judging "from the gut" and who claim no design expertise, while the case for the right image is mostly argued from first design principles, focusing on structure as a way to minimize the mental cost of reading.

It's possible that the easiest-to-read poster is not necessarily the most effective. Some studies have shown that harder to read text correlates with better retention [1]. Also, there are traffic studies suggesting that narrower streets [2] and traffic intersections with no signaling [3] may be safer. The latter examples might seem unrelated to the discussion, but what all these cases have in common is that more attention, rather than less, is being demanded from the user. It does not seem surprising that an increased level of attention improves outcomes.

I'd be curious to see the results of a rigorous A/B test with the two posters from the article.

"I firmly believe that entering into this resolution is the right thing for us to do — a step that appropriately acknowledges how we fell short of our values and expectations," said Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun.

Not going to happen. It's a mindshare thing. If there are 10 million people who think I may as well have a bit of my portfolio in bitcoin that gives it value and that's probably not going away in a hurry.

If anything it'll get worse as it goes from 1 million to 10 million to 100 million. Back when 1 bitcoin = 1 pizza there were perhaps 1000 people into it?

Google's proposals actually anonymize data before being sent to Google or any other ad network. But this only works by moving parts of the ad infrastructure into your browser. Do you really want your browser run machine learning algorithms to assign you to a cohort (see FLoC), or have ad auctions take place on your device (see TURTLE-DOV)?
Exactly, I don't say OP is wrong but I need to see how I can

1. buy X for USD

2. buy BTC for X

Shouldn't the price for X then stay the same? (Bought X once, sold X once)

Assuming X drops to 0, wouldn't people that have BTC just use another coin X' to get back to USD?

Assuming company Y creates X out of thin air and buys BTC with it, why doesn't X drop in value? Because arbitrageurs buy it? So arbitrageurs have lots of X? Should I care if they go broke in the process?

Have you actually tried implementing something like A*? The inner loop is very tight, and putting several easily avoided dictionary lookups in there is just silly.

Given how simple it is to write a solid abstraction that implements the coordinate-based lookup with an array storage, and given how much better such an implementation behaves in terms of instruction counts and memory layout (think cache locality), you'd be silly not to use an array.
