After the developers there is a line of QA as well, but part of the problem is having the organisational structures for developers to discover issues like this. Regular audits, security as a priority and non-recrimination policies would be a good start. In many companies if you bring up problems like this then your "not a team player", in others you could point out issues like this all day long but they will never be acted upon because the budget isn't there for various reasons.
It could be more cost effective when the packages are shipped separately. The seller can process the gift packages in batch. It's more flexible when they decide not to ship with a gift. And, there's a weight limit for sending a small parcel.
The rumor I heard was that it will hit 1 quadrillion dollars.
How unusual. A link to a paywall on hacker news.
Why can't you replicate gold? What is gold? It's some elementary particles (like quarks) arranged in a certain way that we all agree are valuable. We could easily agree that some other arrangement is valuable (such as Aluminum).
Plausibly deniable way to brush. Book two orders per customer that looks like an accident.
Could it be that the dim weight of the combined order + free gift bumps up the shipping cost? Because I know that I have ordered items from China that have free shipping unless I have more than 4 or 5 items in the same order, then the shipping goes from free to an unattactive amount. Sellers have told me to instead place multiple orders for smaller quantity and then the shipping on each is free.
It doesn’t surprise me that kids don’t actually want to spend every waking moment with their parents.

Obviously this varies by age but they are little sentient beings who have their own agendas.

I have no idea why anyone would expect them to want the same one or two people in their mental space during every moment of “free” time.

Why couldn't they just say that the purchase of a multimeter includes a free gift that will be shipped independently, and then ship the multimeter with the regular tracking and the free gift later using whatever economies of scale you are proposing?

> These 3 types all have equivalent reference types (again: a reference is a pointer to memory in an unknown place): &[T] for Vec<T>, &str for String, and &T for Box<T>.

This seems to accidentally imply that these reference types are for things on the heap. i.e., that &T is borrowed equivalent to Box<T> which is not true. All three of these reference types can point to memory not on the heap. The former two 'usually' don't, while the latter will vary wildly depending on the application.

>How is letting scientists research subjects they're actually interested in, instead of seeking funding from industry any worse for the progress of science? Science research frequently has zero commercial application.

Let's ignore any influence industry already may exert on any grant funding.

Because in some fields, at best, industry is behind what's being worked on in academia. In the mid 60's when arpanet was being developed, I wonder what the industry/market would have been asking for instead? Probably some minor extension of something they already seen before…

Being beholden to industry can be a blessing for some (just like the grant hamster wheel is for others), but for others it could just be another set of relatively arbitrary constraints in the scheme of figuring out the theoretical.

Here's a list of research in mathematics that in some shape or form, was considered to have zero commercial application[0]. Im sure you can find analogues in many sectors.

>On the other hand I could create 21M cryptocoins on a blockchain (calling them Bitcoin2 or even just Bitcoin if it pleases). I can make them function identically, similarly or more efficiently than Bitcoin. I can create a new blockchain (network) or put these coins on an existing blockchain (say the Ethereum blockchain). How much would you pay for all 21M Bitcoin? How much would you pay me to create you 21M Bitcoin2 and transfer 100% of them to you?

That's not irony. Thats a happy coincidence.
This is my hangup with it. The libertarian dreams of a decentralized currency can never happen if people expect their money to rapidly increase in value.

Why would I buy a pizza today, or a house, or an island, with BTC if in 6 months, that same BTC would be worth 10x.
Exactly. As a teenager I was more than happy to have my parents spend the day at work, as long as work-related stress didn't get brought back. It would have been quite annoying if they were around me all the time.

"The reason Cell was designed to be a domain-specific language, and its compiler to be a code generator, should be obvious. Choosing the main language for your application has usually more to do with the tools, libraries and support that are available for it than it has with the language itself, and one generally has to be, by necessity, very conservative there. But a domain-specific language that integrates with your primary language, instead of replacing it, stands a much better chance of actually being useful, as it can be adopted gradually, and only when, and to the extent that, it provides a clear advantage. It's just another tool in your toolbox. "

That's a really interesting way of thinking about it.

My counterexample to this would be CUDA. It is so much more successful than OpenCL (for many reasons) and so much carefully tuned library code and dev tools exists for CUDA, that choosing other options is only done for mobile platforms, where a duplicate port is required.

It is conceivable that a company like WD could implement a linux BSP and pay for ports/tuning of high level tools, but it would be a significant task.

The performance analysis of synchronous systems like MPI and map reduce over 4k cores is relatively obvious, but for next generation data intensive tasks and asynchronous compute it isn't.

Yep, solar cells are similar. So many 20% efficiency increases, they should be at 200% by now.
many other metals are used as stores of value, but gold is probably the most iconic. From a historical standpoint, It's easy to identify, it's easy to break up into smaller units or consolidate into larger ones, easy to form into coins. It has a global distribution, it's relatively inert so you don't need to worry about degradation.

scarcity is only one factor to consider - demand and fungibility are also important factors among others.

That is the beauty of blockchain right? Its trustless! I'll create 21M of Bitcoin2 on the Ethereum blockchain and send you the smart contract address you can verify on etherscan and boom there is no trust needed.

Edit: As to Irony, OP could have used anything to justify the value of Bitcoin, it is ironic he would select Gold and say it has no intrinsic value other than looking good as jewelry, when it is a intrinsic component to the Bitcoin ecosystem. Notwithstanding, I don't think its a coincidence OP compared Bitcoins value to gold.
If someone has physical access to the Apple computer in order to "log in", then even if the owner has set a strong root password, what stops anyone from rebooting, holding down Command+S and booting into single user mode?

In single user mode, as all macOS users know, there will be no access limits. Anything can be changed.

How are users preventing from rebooting into single user mode?
Ah come on. We both know that the basic claims about gold are true:

1) Gold returns, over the very long term, are roughly in line with S&P500 returns (but ... we're talking decades, as in plural).

2) in the short term Gold returns are essentially zero. With both the good and bad that comes with: almost no volatility, and when there is volatility, it's sudden large jumps up.

The one that isn't well known:

3) Most governments prevented this investment from working when it mattered by (in the US case) outlawing gold. Other governments did different things with similar results.

So Gold is a great investment, IF you're willing to wait 20+ years at least, and of course assuming you trust the government (the exact opposite of what most gold bugs will tell you).

You say 21M "cryptocoins" but you couldn't, however, create 21M BTC arbitrarily.

As long as that number stays the same (it isn't completely immutable) then BTC has real scarcity - making it a store of value, like gold. Throw in some additional properties that BTC has that gold does not, and an argument can be made that BTC is at least a decent value store.

Even at $100,000/BTC, Bitcoin would still have a ~1/5th of the market cap of all gold mined.

And in a truly universal sense - gold is made by stars. There are 100 billion stars. There's only one Satoshi in the known universe ;)

I wonder whether people associate money with government simply because that's what most money labeling says.

If I were living in a world where money had just been invented, I suppose I'd care mainly that whoever was issuing it was trustworthy enough not to issue extra on the side.* Otherwise I wouldn't really care where it came from.

I'm not sure if I'm agreeing with you, disagreeing, or just continuing the discussion.

*Eventually I'd come to understand that inflation is not necessarily a bad thing, but my first instinct would be that I'd value money only if it were scarce.

The problems with Congress isn't stupidity (not that they aren't stupid), it's corruption. There's no quiz for that.

Beyond that, considering the history of tests as a precondition for participation in American politics...funny that it comes up as often as it does. Plus, if there was a test, isn't that something that'd quite possibly be on it?
American democracy is designed to elect a geographically representative legislature. I wish it could also elect an ideologically representative legislature.

Currently, I really appreciate how Senator Ron Johnson is fighting to give small business the same preferential tax treatment given to corporations by early drafts of the tax bill [1].

Speaking as a non-american closely following US politics, it appears you get the Congress for which you don't vote as well.

The amount of partisanship on one side of the aisle (first example that comes to mind: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/07/us/politics/syria-bombing...) and the fact that there are very few congress members who don't fall in line to their party means that no matter which party you vote for, you're getting what you're getting now.
Doesn't apply because this doesn't violate any rights.
I personally think we need a civil libertarian movement. The abuses of the federal government are beyond ridiculous at this point. We are fighting over political differences while everyone's liberties/rights are legitimately being eroded.

Congress is subservient to the Military, the Federal Reserve, and even relatively small-time players like Healthcare/Big Pharma.

How many congressman are actually crying foul that Afghanistan, etc., are unconstitutional wars that are not approved by congress--a constitutional right of congress.

Congress also has the right to issue and regulate currency, but even that we leave up to a private bank that has Wall St's best interests in mind--not the taxpayers.

These kinds of constitutional injustices could go on and on.

But most people are bombarded with the injustices of the latest Trump tweet, or the inhumanity of mansplaining.
TL;DR - just dump it on the bankers. Once they're into anything, it gets a bubble. Thats how bitcoin jumped so high in 2017. Get out before the last bank buys in. We can reevaluate whats left after they crash it with their money equivalent to the bandwidth in Reddit's hug of death.

When is the last time anybody here used bitcoin as a currency?

Bitcoin is those bankers' latest toy. Bankers and their money will hug Bitcoin to death like Redditors to a cute cat gif hosted on a Pentium3 machine.

We already see it - how long is the backlog of transactions that bitcoin rolls over to the next 10min resolution? When I checked, it was nearly 2x as long as the miners can resolve in 10 minutes. Or worse, apparently: https://blockchain.info/charts/avg-confirmation-time

Fucking traders, clogging our currency too much for us to use it, just so they can buy in on the thing that just goes up. It isnt usable anymore for exchange.

They're using the collective wealth of the world (banks, being money safehouses, depositories, etc collectively have magnitudes more money than what circulates in the commercial economy) to try to join in on a craze they usually dont understand. They might just see users paying transaction fees directly, and grow a chub.

When you understand that those investment bankers manage commodities and their futures, derivatives, bonds, real estate, and the stock market? http://money.visualcapitalist.com/worlds-money-markets-one-v... you understand that currency is only a tiny portion of the money in the world, and these idiots manage all of the rest of it as investments. And they're getting stupid about joining in on bitcoin. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-10-05/bitcoin-s...

https://cointelegraph.com/tags/jamie-dimon

Consequently, those bankers are now the reason it "just goes up" this sharply. When we run out of banker patsies to join in on the ostensible money-orgy, look for it to drop. The best/luckiest run at the peak. And then it drops. Panick ensues among the bankers... and the party turns to massacre.

Intentional or otherwise, this hype-train turns functionally into the classic pump and dump scheme that youve see spammers do with penny stocks.

(Catch up: https://youtu.be/ytDamqTjPwg
Or google 'spam pump and dump penny stocks' for some quick reads)

If it recovers through the "moral"/financial defeat of such a crash by continue operating anyway, only after the rebound can we evaluate the value of bitcoin.

In the meantime? Screw those bankers - sell them your bitcoin until we can have our monetary platform back. Or we could try a different one. I hear Etherium is nice, and has less brand recognition among bankers.
Name an artist who has stayed anonymous under focused public scrutiny as effectively as Satoshi. The only one I can think of that comes close to this level of exposure is Banksy, and his identity is right there on his Wikipedia page for anyone who really cares to know.

Besides, Banksy does plenty of communication despite his supposed anonymity. It's not the anonymity; the total lack of communication from Satoshi is what makes me suspect he is dead. Even famously reclusive artists such as Bill Watterson don't cut off all communication with everyone.
Seriously? It was $6000 a month ago... to me this is firmly in the fucking crazy stage. It feels a lot like the last run up to $1,100 before the 80% drop (I cashed out at $1,000 just before the pop by dumb luck, but failed to buy back in).

Even if Congress were paying any attention to what constituents want (and they rarely seem to), it’s laughable that such a small number of people are expected to faithfully understand the wishes of so many people. Right now it’s on the order of one million regular people per representative!

Moreover, with such a small number of people, buying them becomes “easy”; it just doesn’t take that much money to corrupt a few hundred people. If most people need to work their entire lives to reach a million dollars, does it really take much for billionaires to steer the ship?

Now, if you were to vastly increase the number of representatives, you’d solve both problems. Suppose there were 5,000 members of Congress; then it would take a lot more money to corrupt enough people to change outcomes, and each of them would have to represent a much smaller fraction of the population.

A huge number of representatives would’ve been impractical before the age of the Internet (as you’d need a stadium just to hold a session) but with secure remote access it’s quite feasible to have tons of people logged in at once. And heck, why not designate a Congress-stadium anyway, for rare in-person sessions? If it works for mega-churches, it can work for politicians.

Right, it's not irony. All things couldn't exist without elements, like gold. Truisms aren't ironic.
We're surprised because in the past people in Congress have worked together, and in some cases have done good things by working together.

You are also wrong about people from New York and Alabama; on some issues, Americans are mostly in agreement with each other, but that is not reflected in Congress. Net neutrality is an example of an issue the majority of Americans agree on, across all political perspectives. Social security and medicare are supported by a large majority of Americans. You would not know it from the people in Congress, who have managed to turn all the above and more into partisan issues despite the broad agreement by their own constituents.
