Trying to defend the mining from ASICs makes somewhat sense keeping in mind recent news. Monero could really gain momentum (more, than they have by now) by becoming the alternative to online advertising by being the coin to be mined in Browsers around the world.

Salon.com already tried it, and if it works out for them, it could become a pretty great alternative to ads. It would also change the dynamics of online content, as page-reloads would mean a dip in hashing power.
So I guess the owner doesn't really "own" the building if enough people come and draw pictures on the side of it then...

> Importantly, Lewis isn't the only person who claims this happened to him. One Facebook user says he accidentally told "friends and family to go [to] hell" when he "replied to the spam."

Wow. I deleted my FB acct. 8 or 9 years ago because it kept getting worse and worse. It's just sad to read about it now.

From my POV, Facebook is like a TV series that had an incredible first few episodes but quickly grew progressively and irreversibly worse, with a large percentage of its users only hanging on now with grim determination.
It seems like a pretty good name to me. The point of the term "serverless" is that you aren't presented with any abstraction of a server; operations like "spin up more servers to handle the load" or "SSH to the server to figure out what's going on" or "reboot the server because it's acting weird" don't exist for you.

The term does get abused to refer to any server cluster with a bit of autoscaling logic, and in that sense it is a misnomer. But I don't think that's what it originally meant.
Memory-hard Crypto-coin PoW algorithms are usually latency-bound (ex: Cryptonight). So DDR4 RAM would be too slow compared to the L3 cache or L2 cache of CPUs.

So this simple solution actually won't work on the harder algorithms. It might work for Ethash or something scrypt based, but things have gotten harder since then.
That sounds to me like https://www.theonion.com/no-way-to-prevent-this-says-only-na...

Seattle has ~3x as many homeless per population than the US average. The US has ~3x as many homeless per population than Germany.

That's about one decimal magnitude of difference (at a somewhat comparable climate - San Francisco likes to claim that they have to deal with so many homeless people because of the accomodating weather)

Whatever is going on in Seattle, there's likely room to improve.
I understand the first part of this, but I don't know what you mean by the "domain of valid blocks".

Anyway, I understand the issue of an incompatible change. The point is, it's dumb to use the same term for an incompatible change everyone goes along with (like here) with an incompatible change that causes two different chains to be kept up by two different communities (like Ethereum vs. Ethereum Classic).

The difference is between calling a fork-shaped thing a "fork" and calling a knife-shaped thing a "fork".
SiriusXM may be responsible for transmitting the OS update for their hardware stack over the satellite, but the chances are vanishingly small that SiriusXM is responsible for designing, testing, and queuing for delivery OS updates to a car manufacturer's hardware stack.

Blaming SiriusXM for the issue masks that, but they can be called to question more accurately as a result by the press:

* Did Fiat-Chrysler negotiate phased-deployment and day-of-week criteria with SiriusXM, or was SiriusXM alone responsible for those choices?

* Can SiriusXM release OTA firmware updates for the hardware stack in these vehicles without the cooperation and signoff of Fiat?

* Why did the firmware's watchdog process fail to detect the crash-reboot loop (or is no watchdog present), and do they intend to correct that failing in the future so that such crashes result in an automatic firmware rollback in the future?
I don't think it's at all fair to compare the Confucius Institute to the Goethe Institut. The Federal Republic of Germany has been free of totalitarianism for over 70 years.
That price is only for non-SNI browser and devices, which is probably less than 1% of devices/browsers now [1]. Otherwise Cloudfront supports free custom certificates and you can use Amazon's Certificate Manager to acquire and renew them automatically, also for free.

In Seattle, we had a “free ride zone” across downtown. But since virtually every route crossed the “free ride zone” and went elsewhere, it was extremely confusing to use. Also, Seattle has a huge homeless problem, so you’d end up with vagrants using the buses as rolling shelters and crowding out legitimate transit use.

I'm surprised I haven't heard about any big FPGA mining operations. It would work nicely with this change plus it allows to mine coins with different algos depending on what is most profitable at the moment (along with running some wallet recovery / vanity address generator services).

My understanding is that Tensor Comprehensions provides a way to automatically generate optimized CUDA code for algorithms written in a high-level language that more closely mirrors the notation used in mathematical formulas. So you could use it to automatically find more optimal low-level implementations for components used in libraries such as PyTorch and TensorFlow which usually call out to hand-written low-level implementations.
Right, but do you see how you've used the same terms for both?
> I realize that the proper solution is to terminate my account and never attempt to log back in

I've had a "terminated" account that occasionally gets emails inviting me to "Log back in with one click". When I originally tried to delete the account, it told me it would be actually erased a month after. That was 6 years ago.
3 days of "entire nav and sound system now completely inoperable" out of, say, 30 days of lemon law window, would theoretically qualify as both persistent and unreasonable in a new car — if the selling dealership says they are unable to resolve the issue, and they are unable to provide a timeline for resolution of the issue, when asked.

This would be less arguable if the manufacturer simply shipped the same nav+audio in all cars worldwide, but since they usually reserve this sort of thing for "fancy expensive upgrade options", selling a fancy option that goes dead within a week and stays dead without a timeline for repair is quite in-scope for Lemon concerns.
Universities can be expensive, but community colleges typically aren’t. Most of the fuerdai in community colleges are probably studying English to get into a university. Even though they are rich, they won’t turn down a good deal when they can get one (and since luxury cars are so much cheaper in the USA than China, they are considered good deals as well).

Actually these days you would probably use a Lens Array rather than a phased array as it has better characteristics for beam steering and multibeam use. That way the array can can communicate with more than one satellite at once.[0]

> in a cheap city, you could easily pay less than $1k/mo for one, or live with roommates and a log commute for closer to $500.

Yes, but you aren't spending your entire income on housing. What type of housing you choose has a huge effect on the relative cost-of-living between two locations.

Let's take two hypothetical locations, L1 and L2. In L2, housing is three times as expensive, goods in the category G1 are 50% more expensive because you have to buy them locally and retailers have higher expenses and goods in the category G2 are the same price because you order them from Amazon. You make $100k in L1, how much do you need to make to have the same lifestyle in L2?

Scenario 1: In L1, you spend $20k on housing, $20k on G1 and $60k on G2. To have the same lifestyle in L2, you need to spend $60k on housing, $30k on G1 and $60k on G2 for a total of $150k. So for you, L2 has a COL of 150% of L1.

Scenario 2: In L1, you spend $60k on housing, $30k on G1 and $10k on G2. To have the same lifestyle in L2, you need to spend $180k on housing, $45k on G1 and $10k on G2 for a total of $235k. So for you, L2 has a COL of 235% of L1.

So, which one is the real COL? They are both are equally valid. COL only makes sense in the context of a specific lifestyle. The best these single number answers can do is to guess what the average person's spending patterns will be, but people naturally self-select towards areas that are more favorable to their preferred lifestyle which means that the average spending patterns are often not an accurate reflection of the preferences of people who have chosen to live in that area.
Facebook has been asking me to add my mobile number to secure my account. It even prepopulated the input field with my mobile number that I never shared with them! My best guess is that their app farmed it out of the phone adress book of one of my friends. Either way, they definitely overstepped the mark here, in my opinion.
Well as far as legal protections go, nothing definitive, and they can always argue their statements about enhancing user experience would cover this.

I think the real issue, is people think they are doing one thing, but doing another.

depending on the age of your account, you'll notice that the notifications for SMS maybe defaulted on, this didn't matter if you didn't have a phone number associated with your account. When you add a phone number to your account, its not "solely" 2FA, you add the number to your account, and 2Fa is enabled, just like all the other default setting that apply to phone numbers.

which is why when people are responding to the SMS its posting on their wall, its because what their settings are set to do.

see the settings below where they can disable this.

It's another case of people screaming to the heavens about evil megacorp. when in reality they can't be bothered to check their own settings.
Looks like the owner didn’t do this gracefully and didn’t care much about the significance of the Art to its creators and others who appreciated it likely way more than he did. That’s not very nice. On the other hand, if it is indeed his property he should have the right to do what he wants with it. Unless there was a contract of some kind, not a lawyer, I don’t understand how the judge could have sided with the artists who themselves were on a private property and ended up making claims to said property. Aren’t judges supposed to be impartial and make decisions based on the letter of the law ? Though I suppose the law in the us may protect the artists in this case.
Back when I was trading, we poked at FPGAs.. but they were 10x or 100x slower than ASICS.

They were "cool" in that you can 100% predict the speed.. like guarantee algo X takes Yns to complete... which is very useful for some things, but the brute power was really not that impressive compared to a fast intel CPU with no or a very thin OS.

I don't think the profit margin can support that kind of efficiency loss, you are back to near CPU levels..
That sounds a lot like it would come straight from right wing propaganda from the wording.
I think it's okay in a text like this to say frequency = pitch. Frequency is the primary factor in how we perceive pitch.
They can’t actually import them into china, it is ridiculously expensive to get a car last customs. My old boss tried to get his Hummer imported into china from the USA and could never even get it approved.
> I realize that the proper solution is to terminate my account and never attempt to log back in.... but I've had my account since 2006 and despite the company's terrible practices, I'm really not interested in disconnecting for good at this time

Well, that's the real problem, isn't it? If users aren't punishing Facebook by leaving the platform in droves, then what incentive does Facebook have to stop its consistently user-hostile business practices? Obviously it does not care about complaints alone: so long as engagement metrics are up, the users' opinions can be damned.

The good news (for those of us that don't like Facebook) is that it seems like users are leaving it—or at least that's the picture I get from stories/comments submitted here on HN.
Please don't do this. Just because I've got a large viewport, it doesn't mean I want massive text, and just because I've got a small viewport, it doesn't mean I want tiny text. Either extreme can result in very frustrating to read and potentially inaccessible text. Perhaps it makes sense in some narrow cases (e.g. the main page title), but certainly not for your body copy.
IP assignment itself is a bit of hand-wavy term, that hides a lot.

Those jurisdictions, where you cannot assign authorship, make distinction between being an author and being able to distribute a copyrighted work. It you wrote something, you will be forever the author and you cannot transfer the authorship. What you can transfer is the rights to distribution.
Yeah. It's no secret that they never fully let you disconnect. If you're serious about it, seems like you need to create a burner email account with an absurdly complex password, update FB to use this account, and you know the rest

In our case it's not the websockets that are the problem, it's the XMPP connection that each websocket connection creates. Logging in thousands of users takes several minutes. While a user reconnects, any conversations that the users are having with their website visitors are disrupted.
> While blockchain technology would not have prevented such attacks, it could, in some instances, have prevented the hackers from being able to access much of the confidential data.

> Since the access and transfer of data can be made more secure by blockchain, it facilitates a more trusting environment where doctors, patients, and third parties can regularly transfer data to one another.

This is some hand-wavy bullshit. How does Blockchain tech prevent access to confidential information? How can it be made more secure?

> Blockchain-based electronic health records would allow records to be easily sent from one location to another making them, in effect, the first ever anywhere anytime electronic medical record. To potential of these kinds of records to transform patient care is enormous.

Sure, except you need to send the entire blockchain - or you can send excerpts, in which case there's no need for a blockchain.

I'm tired of reading and pasting excerpts. This reads like a high school junior trying their best to justify picking an essay topic to a teacher. I'd give this a generous D-.
I get that, but I also get a vibe of "adapt or die" we said about Blockbuster when they thought they were cultivating an atmosphere of the joy of picking out a movie with your family.

I'm sure everyone wants to be a real life Central Perk from Friends, but that's not coming back in the age of smartphones, laptops, and remote workers without some serious trade-offs like the alienation of a potentially majority subset of your customers in the first place.

Business owners of course are free to do as they please and I think it's interesting for them to experiment with cultivating a modern social experience in a cafe.

I worry that it's sort of the same line of thinking that leads folks to skip vaccinations for their children, i.e. "What about the Tuskegee experiments and MKUltra? We can't trust government claims about health risks."
Maybe. In the movie, they got tired of waiting on us, being how slow we are relative to them. And they found some higher plane of computational substrate to go live on. So humans were left behind to contemplate whether they might be better off with other humans filling their needs instead of digital assistants.

Personally, I find that to be a weakness in libertarianism.

On the other hand, one argument for it is that we have a lot of regulations; those regulations cost money. Absent those regulations, some of that value would be captured by those who are poor (either directly because fewer regulations would allow more jobs, or indirectly because fewer regulations would reduce the cost of production).

At least some regulations exist to prevent businesses from externalizing their costs; different libertarians disagree on the proper way to handle this (torts are one popular suggestion, something like cap-and-trade is another; a surprising number of libertarians are very comfortable with taxes on pollutants, provided the tax is tied to the approximate damages caused by the pollution).

[edit]

Another way of saying this is that without the various welfare and social justice systems, walmart's workers would either need to be paid more to keep them healthy, or they would have to deal with constant turnover and people showing up to work sick (and thus with reduced productivity). Both situations would impose costs upon walmart without any need of taxation.

In addition, most schools of libertarianism are not opposed to workers unions as a contractual, free-market solution to workers rights. Special government protections (e.g. NLRA) or restrictions (e.g. right-to-work) of union tend to be treated with equal suspicion (though there are schools of libertarianism that are more pro- or anti- union).
Care to elaborate on the first point?
I was going to link this one if someone did not already. It is a natural followup from this article and must-read for getting intuition on DFT and its limitations, many of which are just limitations of sampling.

As far as progressing even further into DSP, especially for audio processing, I've found https://www.dsprelated.com/freebooks/filters/ to be a good map of the territory. But as someone with a CS degree rather than an engineering or math degree, it's all pretty overwhelming.
They definitely are. And for users like me they certainly aren't getting their money's worth... I use FB purity, ublock origin, and have spent the better part of the last year using the 'on this day' feature to scrub historical information from the platform.

As a tool Facebook still has valid use cases for me. The benefits of keeping it edge out any negatives. So for now I will stay. Unless any egregious election meddling information comes out, in which I'll seriously reevaluate that decision
I'm a fan of evolutionary algorithms, but are they really effective enough here to be comparable to an engineer tuning code? They might be able to find a good configuration of a few canned options but real optimization often requires some creativity or at least an understanding of the hardware.

Slightly related peeve: if you enable 2FA on Facebook they will never expire any existing browser cookie or mobile app token. Thus whoever gets their hands on your desktop or a device, even months into the future, will bypass 2FA.
Different budgets. Raises are continual, ongoing costs but the cost for hiring a new person can be considered one off costs, even though you are performing the "one off" task repeatedly

Some managers also seem to only respond to crises. Being down an employee is a crisis. Making sure that your employee gets an appropriate raise isn't, especially since most people aren't going to leave their boss know that they are looking for another job
