> No, it's more generally about hosting any content-addressed data.

Back to my original points, I don't think it is about hosting the data. It's the location of the data. Eg, a room full of people downloading a large video don't need to leave the room for the majority of the data, they can share the data between each other - seamlessly. Leading to less clogging of the network of data when there's absolutely no need for us to be downloading from youtube/etc.

For me personally, another thing IPFS does is allow access to immutable data. Seeing as websites love to change data on the fly, it's hard to know what someone else saw, compared to what you saw. Was the article modified? Did X political candidate change what s/he's saying on their site? IPFS solves this, and this is my favorite part, tbh.

World of Tanks has been my favorite game for years. It strikes a nice balance between reaction speed and strategy.

Due to the game mechanics of 'aim time' this somewhat eliminates the huge advantages of ping time and those with super human reaction times.

Doing well requires good team strategy as well as deep understandings of tank mechanics such as armor weak spots, tank positioning to increase chances of bounces etc and also map strategy.

Therefore, the great players aren't those who have developed better reaction times, they are the ones who have developed deep knowledge and skill around the games many maps and 300+ tanks
Nah. You are reading too much into it. Futures are just a way to bet on bitcoin without touching bitcoin itself
Are you trying to dispute that compilers are large and complex? It seems like you are saying that if the language is simple, a non-optimizing compiler for it can be simple, which seems somewhat obvious. I think the "microcosm of computer science" and associated complexity become apparent when the source language is not simple, the middle end contains many optimization passes, and the back end requires more than simple statement emission.
Costco beats Amazon on price
Yeah, I was less concerned about the usability of the app itself (I assumed there are other challenges available and they're configurable) but it's a bad first impression, especially when it's the only challenge shown and the screenshot is repeated multiple times throughout the landing page (which suggests it is the only challenge currently available).

If you're going with a "color blind" palette, just make sure you don't accidentally make it worse. I've seen many people mistakenly avoid e.g. red/green completely and end up with hues that are even less distinguishable.

A good low-tech approximation is to just check your palette in gray scale and make sure e.g. red/green or yellow/blue don't appear too similar. It's likely not necessary that a user knows which color each color is supposed to be but they will likely need to be able to distinguish them at a glance. Also make sure when filling in a shape with color (such as letters) that the shapes are big enough (i.e. bold enough) -- colors are easier to distinguish when they cover a larger surface (more photons, better vision).
Fascinating! Could you share more on the details of your experiment?
Lots of ways to connect with young people. Youth organizations can get you connected, without the household commitment (they all go home at the end of the game). Scouts, church groups, Big Brother/Sister, you name it.

On further review, a concern: instead of a meta key next to 'q' which can be conveniently remapped to Control, this keyboard has Tab.

In the abstract, it seems reasonable to suspect that that can be mapped in a somewhat complex fashion, such that when pressed and released alone it issues 0x09, while when pressed and held in combination with other keys it sets the Control meta bit. I'm certain Emacs can do this. Can it be done in a Linux DE more generally? It seems like that should be possible, but I'm having a hard time finding examples of similar things being done.

As a Texan with a long history of eating high quality steaks, and later a discerning consumer of many other forms of animal protein, I can attest to the very satisfying results that the Vegetarian Butcher gets.

I haven't tried most of their products, but I have used a few of them (many times). Some of their products are amazingly similar (indistinguishable in some cases) from the "real thing".

Keep in mind that animal meat quality and characteristics vary widely, especially if you unwisely choose factory farmed animals. There are some chickens that are chicken only in DNA, but otherwise are sad diseased balls of chemicals that end up as really untextured, nasty meat. Meanwhile, the veggie (dark meat) pulled chicken this company makes is really good! It cooks like chicken, has a nice flavor, absorbs seasonings the same, and has a texture that would fool most people.

Lately I've been enjoying their pre-made spicy tuna wraps. Lekker! And they don't contribute to the decline of tuna fish, nor do they give me more mercury than I've already consumed from years of loving my tuna sushi.
Writing a trivial and inefficient compiler is indeed not that complex, especially if you choose a simple language. Writing a smart optimizing compiler must be a pretty different kettle of fish.

Because finding the 'right person' is seen as a precondition to starting a family. Which is an artificial obstacle, given what I wrote above. If the goal is to connect with a younger generation in a significant way, so as to know people when old.
I wonder how many of the young people you connected with that way would come to sit by your side at your deathbed.
Yeah, no. That works if the colors are easy to recognise but considering how many times I guessed wrong when facing two unlabeled hues I was able to distinguish but not clearly recognise (e.g. knowing one is green and the other red but guessing wrong because the green is brighter when normally the red would be brighter).

We're not going to see orbiting towns in 20 years. A town means a place where someone can spend their whole life. But living in zero-g for over a year causes serious health problems. We might be able to solve that with spinning habitats for artificial gravity but considering no one is making serious plans to build those it's going to take a lot longer than 20 years.

As robotics and AI technology improves I expect very few humans will be sent into space. We're too expensive to keep alive.

There are some structural differences (e.g. the lack of using endings to indicate grammatical structure in English) that make creating the sort of "it all rhymes and flows really well" poetry you get a lot in Russian much more difficult in English.

Python Useful Snippets
As a German, I'm a bit puzzled as to why Latin languages like Spanish and Romanian, are more "similar to English" than German is.

I get that English borrows a lot of words from French but overall English and German should have more similar origins than say Portuguese or Catalan.

Is this because of our "annoying" grammar (would make sense since Icelandic, another Germanic language with much more complexity in this regard even makes it into Category IV) or because German leaves little room of ambiguity (and thus fun)?

Because a meat substitute is supposed to be like meat. And if it's not, sure, it can still be good - but that's irrelevant when crafting a meat substitute.

Your point about sausage is actually proof of this. Sausage is good and tasty - but not a substitute for a cut of meat. No one is going to have a sausage burger, and suggest they're equivalent.
Not sure about any of those languages, but what I can tell you is learning multiple Arabic variants is almost equivalent to learning multiple Romance languages. It's not just phonology or vocabulary.

I dont mean to say you should burn your life for a business, but if you simply dont care because "I am a programmer and I dont need to" imho your general effectiveness is going to be low, your skill progression isnt going to be fast, and your chance of getting hired somewhere with equity that isnt a shitshow is also low.
Probably because studies show that people who use excel to manage finance end up coming up with different numbers. JP Morgan lost 6 billion because of excel, and these are preventable problems. It's because you aren't codifying your process, you're just memorizing it and trusting that your memory won't change. Trusting that you won't miss a step. The moment you start doing serious calculations on your data you would be better writing some form of software which can actually handle the amount of complexity that you have in your job. Excel is opaque, hard to manage, easy to diverge. The agency I'm at have made a tremendous reduction in errors by migrating away from excel. Sure it's more work nailing down every process, but they are actually nailed down and you can see them and evaluate whether they are actually correct. You won't have multiple competing standards within a business because we can share our processes. If you think excel is enough you're either doing very simple or low risk job, or much more likely you are floating a lot of totally unnecessary and expensive risk. In finance CENTS matter.
Lots of other animals are self-aware (they can identify themselves for example). This isn't just a human thing, but an advanced brain thing.

Some of these responses speak to the difference between "programming" and "software engineering". If you want people to hack code without regard for what it is for, you get programmers. If you want a team that is fully engaged in building a product (which means the whole life cycle from requirements to deployment) you need software engineers. If you disempower developers from that kind of decision making, it doesn't matter what their title is.
I like immutable objects. But my worry is it will lead to lots of small objects being created just to get destroyed right away, putting lots of pressure on GC. I wonder if this is a known issue in the immutable js community.
Sounds like an interesting idea. Reminds me a little of doctests in Python. This can also be applied to languages and compilers that do not allow the tests to run at compile time by wrapping the tests in #If DEBUG ... #End If or whatever the construct is in the language to compile the tests in debug mode only. Or define a special symbol WITHTESTS.

Then at least your tests will be close by the code that they are testing and they won't affect the size of the delivered binary.
Yes and no. The (delightfully named) bitdiddle may have a point.

Although the CME futures will be cash settled so Bitcoin will not be directly involved, it's not clear what would happen if there was evidence of price manipulation.

For example, if there is an anomalous spike on a stock exchange around the time of the futures mark, this is always investigated.

If a similar thing occurred on, say, GDAX (which will be included in the benchmark), it's not clear what that would trigger. It's possible that the answer is nothing (there are futures on Libor after all) but it doesn't require much tinfoil to see this as a possible point of attack.

Firstly, the ME section is locked until a message is sent to the EC. Flashing firmware on a live system can be dangerous, more so on a laptop. Our flashing method has to take place in EFI.

Signing keys are fused into the CPU for boot guard when the CPU is attached to the motherboard during production, for soldered CPUs like the U and H class. Having a customer signing key would seriously complicate BIOS updates, as only one key can be utilized, meaning our firmware updates would not work.

It would also make returns much more difficult, as all CPUs with customer keys would have to be replaced.

Right now, boot guard is only used on the Galago and Lemur.
Cache smearing seems like it would suffer from the obvious problem of invalidation. The solution they come up with is rather than having a piece of data associated with one cache key "foo" it is associated with "foo0, foo1, foo.., foo8".

If you have one key you can just delete it, but now you have to do that on all the possible versions of the key.

(Of course if they're relying upon TTL settings for expiration then this doesn't matter.)
That sounds excellent to me. China could just start publishing these data, and then we lowly USA citizens could have some idea what the cops are getting up to with these drones. I'm anticipating a fair amount of "pretty woman undressed in her bathroom" footage...

"better" is a vague word and depends on your goals. Is a 3-wheeled car still a car? It does pretty much the same thing. Will people be confused as to whether it's a "real car" like the 4-wheel cars? No.

Likewise, nobody is being fooled by this vegetarian meat. And seriously, given that it is more expensive than meat, the "average" person isn't going to accidentally buy vegetarian meat without realizing it.

This is the usual protectionism a desperate industry that is already headed for (self) destruction. Whether it's a bird flu that causes the culling of millions of chickens (happens here in NL every few years), or the problem of having nowhere to put the enormous amounts of manure from the dairy and cow industry, or the problem of antibiotic restrictions, or so on and so on, the change is inevitable.

True vegetarians don't really care too much about these products. They're quite expensive, and many of us have a particular love of good vegetables and cooking techniques. The meat is not really missed. But for new vegetarians or people who have been told by their doctors to shift their diets to less meat, these products are nice to have around.
