Yes, but people also use beer as a currency. Probably much more than they use cryptos as a currency. In this context, when talking about currency, we mean at the same scale as fiat currency. Else, the currency discussion is senseless.

So it seems to be the education and propaganda that causes this. You will need to start fixing the thinking in the population first, politicians won't promote unpopular ideas (unless if they have tons of money behind to offset the extra work of making the unpopular idea popular via propaganda)
This vulnerability (cross-guest and cross-process) does not exist in AMD CPUs. You can still exploit this in-process to say gather information to bypass ASLR for example. (Not too easy and very CPU specific, as the perceptron-like predictor is not as predictable in behaviour and has been retuned many times.)
Is Wavecrest not exposed to the risk that Xapo will not be able to fulfill its obligations, for example if an orderly market in bitcoin-USD conversions breaks down?
I do like seeing confirmation of what is patently obvious. Real estate is The Problem, at least in economically healthy areas.

In economically vibrant cities real estate hyperinflation has soaked up all the gains and locked them up in non-productive assets, serving to enrich only banks and rentiers at the expense of individuals and more productive entrepreneurial activity. I've been whining about this for over a decade.
No, no, you misunderstand. Please remember that crypto is good and banks are bad.

I was thinking the same, there's a difference between reading the words and imbibing the content. It takes me a good 3-4 weeks to read a novel @ 2 hours a night.

What is consciousness? I don't believe that it's universally accepted that it even exists amongst rsearchers. Even those who believe it exists have trouble defining it.

The perjury claims come into play with the permanent takedown. There's no burden of proof on the initial takedown, as there is no burden of proof for the request to have it put back up. It's after those two steps that the takedown can become permanent, which is where the legalities and associated penalties come into play, and where the claim can go to court.

As I said, weak, but it's there.
I think you are overestimating the system. Researchers are going for the second option in large droves, as that's the one that helps their career forward, and it's often not their own money they're paying with.

Use IA to set up a canonical, permanent URL for the media, which resolves to a host under your control as long as it's available, then resolves to the IA-hosted archived copy if your site ever disappears? As long as the URL doesn't change, a CDN could do most of the heavy lifting anyway, right?

There were a number of favourable circumstances. I think the most important two were that 1) the editorial board had many who considered Open Access to be important, and 2) it was a relatively small field in which they managed to get their transition relatively well publicised, which allowed people to submit their articles there without negatively impacting their career.

Why a New Train Hall Won't Fix Penn Station
You mean, the opening credits/music? Well yeah, those are the same in every episode, but I assume almost everyone skips those after they've seen it the first few times. Even the Battlestar Galactica reboot had an opening credits sequence which I usually skipped.
I wish people called these things "a foundation of mathematics" rather than "the foundation of mathematics". We have been able to pick and choose ever since foundations became a thing, and as long as they yield worthwhile results they're worthy objects of study. We don't have to pick one and stick with it, and it would be silly to classify stuff done with other axioms as non-mathematics.
I think you need to elaborate more on what exactly you're talking about.

Nothing does better than the prime rate? You mean in terms of interest rate? Isn't the definition of the prime rate the best you can get?

In the long term? What does that even mean here? Can I get lucky and do better than the prime rate, whose definition is the best interest rate you can get?

Saying this knowledge is basic Mathematical Finance is also very condescending. I haven't taken "that course" but I feel from your tone that you took a 101 college course which now guides your entire mode of economic thinking.

Elaborate on your statements.

You're entitled to your tastes; just because no other fans of the show chimed in, doesn't mean you need to feel sorry for posting it (though some explanation of relevance to the topic would be appreciated).

So don't worry; in a day nobody will remember this subthread anyway :).
The difference is that if you decide to stop hosting, it doesn't just disappear. If there is anyone else in the world who wants it, it stays.

It also means you don't need to trust the server to send you the correct content, since everything is automatically checked against its content hash.

It also means it's automatically a CDN - you don't need to be able to serve every single person who wants to look at your content, because they'll all be serving it to each other.
For well-established journals, the editorial board finds new editors, so there is no cost involved for publishers.

With respect to typesetting and proofreading, my personal experience is that the 'service' provided by Elsevier was of such a low quality that it actually caused _increased_ effort on the author's side.

Making the articles available is indeed the core business of a publisher. However, prices for that kind of service should have decreased significantly over the last two decades, not increased.

> I don't think anyone considers touch screens to be a "useless luxury"

FWIW, I do. My current XPS 13 has a touchscreen which I would disable even if it didn't have so many downsides (battery, glare, etc). I'm pretty damn efficient with a keyboard and occasional mouse usage, and I don't really find a desktop touch screen to be at all desirable.

And more importantly, it doesn't require the industry.

In that model at most the band it going to need professional recording and producing services, and maybe some help from song writers.

But they don't need a middle man in the recording company to front the money and control them.
I stopped using hangouts about a year ago. To damn buggy on chrome, let alone other browsers. It’s a significant waste of time having 5 - 10 people wait 10 minutes for someone to get hangouts working on their computer.

Is the "painkiller" part of the anesthetic cocktail really a chemical that prevents the formation of memories?

I find this both compelling and frightening:

"Of the thirty-two patients Russell tested, twenty-three squeezed to suggest they could hear, and twenty squeezed again to say they were in pain. Although Russell was supposed to test sixty patients, he was so unnerved by these results that he ended the trial early. It’s possible, he suggests, that the women were conscious and suffering on the operating table. If that’s the case, then general anesthesia might be better described as “general amnesia.”

This is a nitpick, I know, but its pretty disingenuous to just compare "pre-MBA salaries" with "three years after a two-year MBA salaries". That's a gap of five years: I'd be interested in a comparison of salaries between a cohort three years out of a two-year MBA and a similar cohort that just worked for five years.

(I think that the MBA cohort is still making more overall, but I suspect the value prop is less impressive.)
The same could be said of any medical treatment. I've known people that believe drug addicts deserve zero treatment because it's all their fault. Same with people that did something stupid and got severely injured.

'Where does it end' isn't much of an argument. Instead we should be asking how should we determine where the line is and I believe the answer is simple: If it can be determined that it would result in a significant QoL increase then it should be covered in most cases. A transgender person receiving hormone therapy or reassignment therapy is an example. A victim who lost their nose in an accident and wants to mend their face is another.

"How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big" by Scott Adams (Dilbert author) also talks a lot about managing personal energy.
That's the point of clone(), but the point is that the problems of fork() are with its semantics. Even with clone(), if you want to spawn a new process then your best bet is to go with vfork() semantics -- in principle you could create a thread-like process sharing the parent's address space that can then exec() without affecting the parent, but in practice you can only do this inside a C library because the protocol for setting up TLS (for errno) is underdocumented and requires knowledge of and access to your C library's internals.

2001 and most of Kubrick's other films are definitely part of "the canon" of films that everyone who appreciates film as art should see. Unfortunately, you can't just do a surprise screening of these films for your family or other audiences and expect them to be receptive.

They will need to "discover" these things on their own. The best thing you can do is to make sure they have opportunities to see this stuff and to talk it up when possible.

One of the best pleasures of being a teen is discovering, on your own, how rewarding a great film can be and developing "a taste" for films, music and other aesthetic experiences. You simply can't force this stuff.

My problem with Dunkirk was all the stranded and starving soldiers looked like Versace models with fresh 2018 haircuts and Burberry topcoats.
I'll just point you to the Assange phenomenon. When Assange was an agent (provided a platform) bringing light to the consequences of W's and Obama's wars in the middle east, he was a hero.

Then, one day he also became conduit to information which lead to the political death of an anointed successor to the Obama presidency and he became a traitor, a misogynist, an enemy most foul -a Russian agent, in their eyes.

So, yeah. Many people like China when it's expedient, and will forgive those little sins. You know balance against hegemony, economic rival, bearers of Mao's torch, the divinity of marginalized peasants who stick it to urban elites, etc.
'The rest of it was spent creating one of the most impactful companies that the world has ever seen.'

I don't think Uber is this, even if 'impact' is purely taken as a morally neutral statement. It's just clearly not the case. Train companies, underground, shipping, airlines, have all had a much bigger impact and that's just looking at transport.
I have used exclusively ThinkPads with Linux for about a decade, and tried switching to the XPS 13 for my last two computers. I think it's a shockingly well designed machine.... On paper. The bezel improvement is incredible, my battery life is insane, but there are just two many things broken with it for me to bother.

1) Both chargers failed after less than a year

2) Wi-Fi and suspend have been a consistent problem (even on the Developer edition that came with Linux! Did nobody at Dell try connecting to the internet or suspending? It's a fucking laptop!)

3) Their "premium support" was worse than useless (I ended up spelunking through dmesg and firmware files and fixing it myself)

4) constant coil whine

5) a TouchPad that loses its mind a few times a day....

I had all of these problems on BOTH machines. The design is so good that it's _almost_ worth it, but I'm pretty confident I will never buy a Dell product again. Back to the X1 carbon for me.
You said that there is no communication which is false.

That you are unsatisfied with it nonetheless is fine, but that is a separate issue.
longjmp() (and friends) is trapped because it causes a
non-local transfer of control. Basically, it can go
anywhere. the "p foo()" would then not return to the prompt.
What we know is that longjmp() will leave the function (it
goes to where the setjmp() was called from).

Also, look into libffi for how to call a C function by building a call.
The documentary “The Century of the Self” has a section on the Clipper chip. It showed video of a Clinton campaign manager explaining to volunteers that “Yeah, we know this is stupid, but it’s an important part of our message that we are here to protect your children.”

The documentary is excellent all around. Highly recommended. Possibly available on YouTube.
> It’s about the idea of community, what we can achieve together, as opposed to this cult of individuality that we live in right now. Whether you’re talking about Silicon Valley billionaires or politicians, I think we’re living in an era that over-prizes individuality at the expense of community. It’s the Silicon Valley billionaire as opposed to the union. We’ve steered too far in one direction. We need to be reminded of the potential of what we can do together.

That said though, I like the message and also respect the man and his work. That just struck me as a little hypocritical :) although as a storyteller I suppose he is in a position to change narratives like that
People don't invest for an infinite term. In the long run, we're all dead.

Anyway models of low risk investments will underestimate long term crashes /Black swan.

Also, are you comparing other assets directly or somehow including combinations of them? Can you point me to a specific theorem you seem to be referring to?
>Which animal we morally can eat is a huge and difficult concept...

I'd say it's rather simple, the issue is most people are unwilling to make the sacrifices required to live morally.

Given their clear intelligence and ability to suffer the ease with which people deny that animals are moral beings is disgusting.
> That anthropocentric bias has led to a multitude of evils

How about we're the only species which we hold to a moral standard? Unless you're going to hold other species to that standard, you have to admit that we're special.
Yes, essentially -- this is a central idea of growing societal inequality, that economic growth gains are accruing much more to the rich (who own stocks and real estate) than to the working class (real wages not increasing).

Whether the ratio is now unusual, or how large it will get, is a subject of intense speculation with many real-world consequences for society, and especially to what extent law and government policies are responsible for it or can mitigate it (e.g. capital gains tax vs income tax).
Since the threat of PR disaster is just an ancillary bit of evidence, rather than core to my logic, even if I accept your point entirely (which I do not), it is not sufficient to destroy my argument. Of the motivations I gave, the one I would expect to be most powerful is the general desire to keep things internal without involving any external resources, which is just a general operational security principle.

I would also disagree that your assessment is correct anyhow; they are insensitive to certain kinds of bad PR, but not generally immune to it, nor do they act generally immune to it. The people in charge of funding the intelligence community may not come after them for getting caught putting backdoors in things; indeed, this may even prove to the people controlling the purse that they are doing their job. But they are certainly sensitive to ensuring that the people controlling the purse do not come off looking bad, and as a part of that, sensitive to not getting caught conducting open, unambiguous acts of war against every nation in the world. We all "know" that they do, everybody else "knows" that they do, and everybody also "knows" that you shouldn't trust Chinese-manufactured electronics either for the same reason, but it's still not openly known. The distinction between open secrets and openly-known facts may greatly confuse Spock and he may shake his head about how illogical it is for everyone to know a thing and for everybody to know everybody else knows but still act as if nobody knows, but is an integral element of understanding human politics, in which appearances matter a lot.
> Every client I've ever had has asked "how many hours?" And "how much per hour?"

That's when you explain you charge per project or per week instead of per hour, and the fee is based on value, because in the end they won't really care how many hours you spent as long as their problem is solved. (Similarly, if you _fail_ to solve their problem, they're not going to care how many hours you put in.)

I get this question from prospects too, and then I explain the above, and then we move on with the conversation.

And in my 4+ years of consulting, nobody's asked me _at the end_ of a project how many hours it took. At that point, as I said, it doesn't matter.
