Of course they would have laughed in their face. Do you see Nasdaq trying to list Dogecoin? There is no ambiguity or uncertainty here - there is a big problem and they're trying to reign it in with gloved hands before it becomes one and it turns into a big economic mess that the government will have to foot the bill to eventually clean up.

This site likes to complain about wealthy inequality - common people like your grandparents and uninformed but good hearted relatives are providing liquidity for a growing number of new millionaires and billionaires to exit imaginary money who have provided less than zero benefit or service to our society and are leaving the country to avoid tax payments and taking money out of our economy.

Those are for Bitfunder and the like, where the issues are more about fraud than about the correct classification of coin offerings. There is no enforcement action against Coinbase for example. If the SEC was that confident in its position, then they would have gone after Coinbase, and we would have heard about it on CNBC first. This is a tacit admission from the SEC that they don't have much of a legal basis to stand on for such enforcement.
Digital assets are only part of the legacy; there are electronic records and financial documents that need to be collected.

First steps may be removing, marking or locking records belonging to the deceased. These exit activation procedures help prevent identity theft.

OK. (The one time I encountered SIMD in C++ was a decade ago; we had to use assembly then. And even then, we weren't playing with an up-to-the-minute compiler. (In my experience, your comments elsewhere on this article about embedded toolchains were accurate.)

Are the intrinsics standard? If so, what version of the standard were they in? How good is compiler support for them?
So I'm not the only one with that problem! All Spotify recommends to me these days are covers, most of them video game style themes.

From my untrained perspective it seems like they are warning against "the appearance of a regulated market". Therefore, all these markets should do is have a big banner at the top stating:

"We are not regulated by the SEC and any activity here is not protected by any rules and regulations which might apply to a SEC registered company. Please be careful"

I don’t believe that’s correct for C++.

Regardless, yes, that’s the whole point. What’s been accepted is https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/core/arch/index.html , that is, intrinsics that map 1-1 to the vendor APIs. (I belive this is the same in C++ but not my area of specialty so I may be wrong)

https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/core/simd/index.html is the first level up the abstraction chain; this hasn’t gone through an RFC process yet, but will eventually happen.

On top of that, you have stuff like https://crates.io/crates/faster , which is very high level. Looks like they need to fix up the README... but you get the idea.

Also, autovectorization has existed this entire time. This stuff is for when that falls down.
This is a very good point; if you drive your car to work then you pay gas and depreciation just like an Uber driver, except you don't get to tax-deduct it.
'By any means' thinker eh?
There doesn't appear to be any new information here, and this quote sums it up pretty well:

The SEC staff has concerns that many online trading platforms appear to investors as SEC-registered and regulated marketplaces when they are not.

The SEC has already made its view clear that many ICOs fall under SEC regulatory jurisdiction. For example:

To know exactly what the contents of your mind were at that time, you'd need to make a full copy of it, so there is a physical limitation there. You can certainly get approximations of how you felt, but we typically remember peak experiences better than mundane ones. This makes sense from the standpoint of evolution: if you remember what it felt like when you put your hand on the stovetop in vivid detail, you won't do it again. Remembering what it felt like when you walked down the street on October 5th, 1995 is less important because nothing happened, so you just discard it entirely. You can make an educated guess from some template of what walking down the street feels like and what the weather in early October feels like, but you're not going to remember that instance exactly as it happened.

OpenID Connect defines two important standards: Discovery [1] and Dynamic Registration [2].

All OpenID Providers publish their details at a publicly discoverable (and standard) domain: https://{hostname}/.well-known/openid-configuration.

For instance, you can see our OP meta data here [3].

This provides the foundation for using email as an identifier, i.e. in order to access protected resource at autonomous site, input email at a domain with an OP, and the RP can perform discovery to find where to send the user for authentication, and dynamic registration to register their client (app) with the OP to obtain user information ("claims").

These aren't mutually exclusive things. Write readable code so people can see how you did it. Write complete commit messages so that people understand why you did it. Especially with older codebase, hairier things you inherit that are full of monsters and WTFs, you need both.

It's more work for you, but it saves the rest of the team even more time. It helps the dev reading it in three years understand, when he git blames to figure out why you did this strange thing.

HTML Custom Element Attributes Conflict with Standards
I'm in my 20s and used to read the local paper religiously. It is nice and relaxing, but reasons I quit:

- Portability: I did most of my reading on public transit. Hauling around a huge packet to read definitely made me feel like an old person.

- Quanitity: It was really tough disposing of the quantity of paper. If you skipped a day for whatever reason, the papers could really start piling up. I tried to end weekend service (the massive advertising packets that contained no news), and sales basically laughed me away.

- Lack of news: So much of the paper was throwaway lifestyle stuff.

- Pricing: It starts out cheap, but afterward they kind of lock you in.

It's not about the coins, it's about the intent. If you go to the SEC and say "I'm going to sell pieces of paper of dubious actual value as securities," they'll be interested. The mechanism that the securities use is not important.

The unlawful part is not the technology, it's how the securities are sold. If you sell something that looks like a security, sounds like a security, and smells like a security, and you're violating regulations around securities, then yes, it's potentially unlawful.

I use pairing when introducing a peer to a new concept, a new library, or helping them get complicated stuff working. I think pairing works best when it has a very intentional purpose - "Together, we're going to get this service up and running locally so you can develop against it" kind of thing.

I have the usual reasons for preferring solitude over socializing, but there's also a sort of meta-reason that causes me to want to socialize even less:

When I am asked about what I've been up to, and I'm honest in that I spend a lot of my time in a balance between intellectual pursuits and mundane chores, I am treated as if I am crazy or deficient. People who don't require my level of solitude see it as a sign that I'm broken, and they never grasp that I prefer it because it helps me stay healthy and creative.

I recently took a two week vacation from work; I had been working non-stop for over a year and needed some time to not code or work on anything. I drove out to Arches National Park, spent some time in nature, came back, and simply relaxed at home. Read some books, played video games, etc.

According to everyone, I should have gone out to see the latest movies, taken a cruise, traveled to cities, experienced night life, seen family and friends, and filled all my days with "activities". My life is supposed to be exciting, by their standard of what exciting is.

It's pretty insulting, especially because they don't even attempt to see it my way. I perfectly understand why others don't want the kind of solitude that I desire, and I don't deride them of it. To be a genuine person only to be met with implications that I'm not living my life correctly makes me think "Why am I bothering with this shit?" So I socialize even less.

To me, socializing for the sake of it is rarely worth the time. It's good practice for when you want to socialize with people who are worth your time, but the returns are pretty diminishing. I don't need to continually explain to people why I'm not filling every moment of my life with "activities" and why I care about my craft(coding). People who value socializing often talk about being a good listener, but they rarely do this themselves.

If people were more open in their attitudes, I'd be more likely to want to socialize with them.
Yes and no. The idea is the same, the implementation is very different.

Sure,that's why Indicators of compromise exist to begin with. What I don't get is this notion of a "high quality" indicator. You would normally match on all indicators you have.

I mean,why match with a dozen indicators knowing full well the attacker might reuse any one of the hundreds of indicators that exist? All the big name security companies match against all known indicators for a group. What practical benefit is there to limiting yourself to a few indicators,even if they are top notch indicators?
Yup, we'll probably be stuck with only 2-4 exchanges that are able to afford the regulatory burden and then the regulators will claim a victory for "helping the little guy."
I wish there were at least some professional news outlets with an expressed commitment to political neutrality.

It's very simple. The SEC will prosecute one of the big boy "exchanges" and bring that company to a screeching halt. All of the rest will have to meet stringent regulatory requirements in order to service American customers.
We are using Rundeck to get that. I spent a year or more basically being the only one in the company who could do Ansible runs, for various reasons, and Rundeck is the web UI we ended up setting up for the other part-time ops people and devs to use. I also looked at stackstorm, but it's free version didn't have user accounts which made it a non-starter for me. Plus, you really only interacted with it via chat, not a web page.
Completely agreed, but this is probably the only real use for this technique. For experienced (read: expensive) developers, the cost overhead of having two or three developers working on one problem (which is likely a one-person task anyway) is too great. I'm certain proponents would push the quality angle -- that two or three pairs of eyes and brains focused on the problem improves quality -- but there are other ways to boost quality while maintaining a more realistic productivity and cost structure.

For less-experienced developers though, this would be a great way of building team cohesiveness, training/mentoring, plus likely boosting productivity.
> who have provided less than zero benefit or service to our society

Was following your argument up to that point. Making such a value judgment requires, in my opinion, a lot more data and deep analysis. Cryptocurrencies have the potential of loosening the grasp of oppressive regimes over their people. And it takes those other investors for the process to function.

But, the reality and therefore data is needed to judge whether these new currencies can deliver on that promise.

Edit: Want to clarify that I'm talking about *coin buyers/sellers. Not scam ICO backers. Agree that those folks are scum with negative value to society. If the parent was mainly talking about ICO scams, then please ignore my response and apologies for the misinterpretation.
Has there ever been a company that sucked up huge amounts of investment, made vague and questionable claims over many years and then came out with tech that backed their claims? From my casual observation this type of company immediately fizzles out as soon as they take something to the market and people see the real product.
I don't think this is a true statement. Children can be pretty vocal about their needs. I grew up as an introverted child and refused to go to relatives/gatherings etc. whenever I didn't want to. My parents understood early on and gave me space.

I am pretty sure other kids have done this as well in at least the recent human history.
I do this to!

I adore the Times http://thetimes.co.uk although it requires a subscription.

Their editor despises group think so you will always find dissenting and differing viewpoints as well as excellent reporting to the standard you'd expect of one of the oldest still published Newspapers in the world.

Crucial to this was my decision to quit Twitter. I became significantly less anxious after leaving. It's impossible to avoid the constant bombardment of 'news' on that service.
This is absolute abomination! They really need to get their act together.
I dislike replies like these because they don't really add anything to the conversation - of course investors liked the demos! They wouldn't have invested otherwise. But this would hardly be the first instance of investors being distracted by flashy demos that cover up deep set problems.

Ultimately, we'll all just have to wait and find out.
You're right! It's ideal for suburbia or rural villages. So long as you don't need them to be higher that a story, hempcrete is great.
Can you give a little more detail about what you'd like to see? What would the ideal example look like for you?
Having thought about this before, here's how I think it works. The relevant effect isn't the speed of light per se -- it's the phase velocity v of 60 Hz AC power transmission, which is indeed reasonably close to c. If you have a power line of length l running East to West and the phase on the Western end lags by 2pil/v, then an electromagnetic calculation will show that power is moving Westward [1]. If the western phase leads, then power flows Eastward. If the phase is the same everywhere, then no current or power flows.

This is actually quite handy. When demand locally exceeds supply, the phase will lag (this is how generators work), and power will flow toward the excess demand.

More advanced grid operators use various devices to intentionally shift the phase to control the flow of power. [2]

[1] Actually calculating this is surprisingly complicated. You can integrate the Poynting vector; you can model the inductance and capacitance of the line, calculate the current, and use P=I*V; or you can probably do it in several other ways. You might even be able to model it as little packets of energy moving along at the group velocity.

[2] This ability is important for economic and engineering reasons. Imagine you connect two cities with two parallel, competing transmission lines. One has 100 MVA capacity, and one has 10 MVA capacity, but they have the same impedance. (This is a bit farfetched, but capacity is related to impedance, heat dissipation ability, and the ratings of whatever equipment is at the ends of the lines.) Without some kind of active control, to much power will flow through the 10 MVA line and it will fail.
Probably none. Apparently they tend to register as money-transmission services: https://www.ccn.com/sec-chairman-to-testify-they-are-open-to...
You could of course just maintain the set of remainders seen so far and then you would detect the cycle by reaching a remainder that is already in your set of remainders seen so far but that requires space proportional to the number of digits expanded and if you are expanding a lot of digits and have a large denominator, this will add substantially to the amount of memory consumed. The digits themselves require of course a linear amount of space, too, but only about one byte per digit compared to the potentially big remainder.
Not to my house it isn't. I made the mistake of fitting a "smart" connected thermostat a few years ago and it's simply not reliable enough. I've also no idea as to how secure it is (or isn't).
Is he actually arguing that "house money" is different from "your money" or is he just reusing existing terminology? IIRC, the idea of "house money" was invented by earlier researchers who tried to explain why people would bet more after winning. Obviously "keeping score of your wealth" explains the effect just as well as "playing with house money".
They buy a lot of expensive weapons so they are an ally.
For me, the things that bother me are:

The company: Taking great engineers that could be working on something to better our world, but employing them to work on what is essentially a huge waste of time.

The product: It's essentially a way to show off, and exclaim your opinions without having a two sided conversation. And because it takes up people's free time, and it's easier than having legitimate conversations with others, people are less likely to converse with eachother. Also the feed isn't honest. A constant bias in information I'm being fed, will eventually result in a bias of my own opinions, and I don't care for being manipulated. Third, I don't want to see everyones filtered, ideal representations of themselves. It's weird, and not psychologically healthy for everyone else to have a skewed image of everyone else's lives.
oh, i expect the activity is still covered by SEC rules and regulations. the exchanges just aren't registered exchanges.

and they should probably make that clear; it might (justifiably) shave down their inevitable liability slightly.
