The thing with PayPal is that it always seemed primarily targeted towards customer-business interactions. Trivial payments between friends didn't seem like a high-priority usecase back in ~2012. I noticed the same issues as you when I tried to Google its mobile history.

Venmo definitely won the first-to-market/network effect game. That said, I'm not complaining. Unless it looks like they are on course for bankruptcy or there is a major data leak, it's CX is pretty much exactly what I want it to be. The only unnecessary part is the social feed, but that has absolutely no impact on me unless I want it to (and sometimes it's amusing to see the messages my friends attach to them if I happen to look at it).
I think the "not a big deal" nature of such things is what contributes to them being so potentially insidious; if it was obviously a bad idea nobody would do it. But all the little drips and drops of data you leave around everywhere can add up to something not pretty.

I also think I would argue "friends" is basically the same thing as being fully public. Most people have hundreds or thousands of FB "friends".

Any (specific) idea how to get to that data? I might be interested in including this with some other, more general information-flow model{s,ing}. This part seems like making it publicly available would be a good thing, and possibly necessary, and likely aligned with the goals a likely choice of organization to host/maintain the technology would have.
Their policy: "Nature Research journals support posting of primary research manuscripts on community preprint servers such as arXiv and bioRxiv. Preprint posting is not considered prior publication and will not jeopardize consideration at Nature Research journals."

https://www.nature.com/authors/policies/license.html

Standard practice in the modern AI community is preprint to arXiv first, then out to a journal for review. All the papers are free online before they even go to Nature. So this policy does not stifle or hinder research.

They also do not take copyright - it stays with the authors - unlike other giants such as IEEE.

To my mind the legitimate argument is about publishers taking undeserved profits from unpaid labour while adding little value.

Add me to the list of people who were horrified to see a social feed when I signed up for Venmo. Ain't no way I'm ever going to use it. Though I suppose it would be interesting to see what other people are paying for/getting paid for. Perhaps I know some drug dealers or "professional girlfriends", etc.
I think you're being too hard on FB for that. It's pretty common for UIs to be "sticky" in that sense, because, as a (pre-AI-hype) heuristic, it's generally accurate. If anything, the AI-driven UI is the one that would realize you probably don't want the cherry pie again.
Yeah I meant closer to 100%, not actually approaching that accuracy.

What incentive would such a small business have for operating. They would have to deliberately cap their revenue in order to maintain the business size and not run afoul of the regulation. The moment their revenue tips over, the profit maximizing behavior would be for facebook and google to use home-grown compliant solutions. Once they have a home-grown solution that complies with the law, they'd have no reason to ever again contract out the collection work.

>I cut the review back to verifiable facts instead of opinion

Opinion is allowed, verifiable facts are allowed. False statements of facts are not.
I said I'm willing to bet, meaning I have a hunch, not actual data. My hunch is based on personal experience, reading recent posts on HN about job searching, and seeing statistics on websites like LinkedIn and Glassdoor implying that many jobs openings have hundreds of qualified applicants. Granted, my hunch may be based on trying to get jobs at well known companies which is probably more competitive by nature, especially in a global market. Getting a job building marketing software at a mediocre agency for $45k/year is probably super easy. But most people don't want that.
We don't - and in fact can't use the same dates, though. Right now, where I am, it's still Tuesday, May 29 - but in Europe, at this very same moment, it's already May 30 - a Wednesday. Maybe you would argue that we force everyone to run their days midnight to midnight on the same calendar - so instead, I would run on the European calendar, and my workday would have begun on May 29, but ended May 30. I guess today was a Tue-wednes-day? That's all very well, except now we have the weird situation of the US workweek running from Montueday through to Frisatday - while the Australian workweek, if they followed the same approach, would go from Sunmonday through to Thufriday.
Perhaps take screenshots of your favorite interactives, and add them to a new "Highlights" section of the landing page? To guard against people stopping by, randomly sampling a few pages, and by chance, missing interesting ones, and thus giving up and going away, not knowing they missed fun things. Sort of like the extract of figures from a paper - something to trigger "oh, that looks interesting".
Poor understanding of / fluency with units is definitely one of the things that sets people back hardest when they get to higher levels.

Venmo is evil. They have this whole concept of socializing how we spend money. They're onboarding merchants like they're going to replace credit cards. I don't want my money in a "Venmo account." I want it in my bank account. I don't need all my friends knowing who I'm paying back, and for what.

The only time I've used it in the past year is when a guy at a gas station asked to borrow $20 to fill his tank and he paid me back with Venmo. I was worried it was a scam, but it worked out okay.

Cash is still king.

The page mentioned lists 79 tokens with a nominal value, 65 of them over $1m. All of these tokens were valueless at one point. Another site lists 862 coins with nominal values of over $1m: https://coinmarketcap.com/

This suggests there's no obvious limitation on the creation of economically unproductive speculative instruments. Even though they all start at $0, any new token has an unknown upside, as the price can only go up. For some that's apparently a compelling bet.

Will this process only stop when people stop looking for the next Bitcoin? Because for them, a valueless token definitely fills a "get in on the ground floor" need. And there are a lot of people doing that right now: https://www.google.com/search?q="the+next+bitcoin"

Looks like someone didn't read the article :) If you normalize to UTC for some future date with a timezone in Lower Left Elbonia Standard Time (GMT+7:42), and the Elbonian Revolutionary Army successfully form an overnight junta, retroactively declaring the country's timezone to be Free Peoples' Elbonia Revolutionary Time (GMT-12:00), suddenly your DB rows make no sense whatsoever.

The absolute point in time relied on future knowledge that did not yet exist, that invalidated any previous estimate of when it would occur. An external timezone reference (the Olsen DB) must be continually updated and separately referenced

This is still generational GC but with a young generation heap per coroutine. I've been working on multi-heap GC for MRI Ruby.

Compared to traditional concurrent generational GC, skipping the marking when a coroutine terminates is not really an advantage because there will be no live objects to mark and marking would immediately terminate anyway. After that, you just reset the nursery pointer and you're done.

Re: The over 40s I know are also able to produce working [prototypes] faster...

Not necessarily if it has to be built in some stack or language flavor of the month (and VC's check). If you change entire tool-sets every 18 months, I bet the younger folks will be able to re-learn faster. I'm 40+ myself, and am saying this from experience. It's unfortunate our industry is so fad-driven, but I didn't create humans, I just work among them.

I recommend one focus on a domain (insurance IT, healthcare IT, etc.) when they get around 40. Your domain knowledge will have market value. Reformatting your head all the time is not a good career strategy for most. (There is some value to some new IT things, but a good portion is hype and gimmicks.)
That fails for the case that you have an appointment at 3pm in 30 days, and 15 days later the timezone's offset changed.
Sticky just feels oddly underoptimized for such an AI-based platform. But lets imagine a different situation. Imagine this was a BB and I was an admin, and I was suddenly switching from the admin forum to a non-admin forum. I'd certainly wanna get that very clear to me, right? Perhaps not the best example though.

Even if decision-based AI is not preferable they could also just after such a deviation instead of assuming one or the other use it to ask me. Like a heads up.

I really don't like it when "switch" toggles don't let you slide while holding down. if you want a toggle and don't want to implement sliding, just use a checkbox. Sliding toggles have a sliding affordance, and when it's not there, it screws with me. The buttons don't have an :active state either, seemingly, but that could just be limitation of their demo stylesheet.

Overpriced hipsterware from a marketing company.
The classic book "Joy of Cooking" is kind of recursive like this.

If you want to make a Reuben Sandwich, you turn to p. 272, and describes the bread, meat, cheese, and sauerkraut. Then it says to spread it with Russian Dressing and points you at p. 364 for that.

The Russian Dressing recipe includes horseradish and grated onion. It also includes Mayonnaise, and for that it points you at p. 363. Another ingredient for Russian dressing is either Chili Sauce or Catsup, and for each of those it points you to p. 847.

On p. 363, there are several paragraphs about Mayonnaise, and 3 recipes for hand-beaten, mixer, and blender versions.

On p. 847, neither the Chili Sauce nor Tomato Catsup recipes have any sub-recipes, but both of them point you to p. 841 for information about Pickling Equipment and Ingredients and they also both point you to p. 804 for a procedure for sealing sterile jars in boiling water.

The jar-sealing procedure on p. 804 points you to p. 165 for an illustration of a tool for lifting jars out of boiling water.

The pickling section on p. 841 mentions that water should be soft and refers to p. 519, the About Water section under Know Your Ingredients which discusses filtration among other things. It also mentions you should only use pickling or dairy salt, and refers you to About Salt on p. 568. And finally it mentions when pickling, you might want to used the Spiced Vinegar recipe on p. 527.

Well, bullets might move between routers, so they might change the Layer-2 network they are on, and thus might need their own independently routable address. Afaik it is bad practice to route anything smaller than a /64.

I agree, pnpm is excellent. The node_modules directory can easily take up hundreds of megabytes, and the storage space savings that pnpm provides are really convenient when you write a lot of small projects with similar sets of dependencies. I did a comprehensive benchmarking comparison on npm, pnpm, and yarn a while back, and pnpm was the clear winner for my needs [1]. Those benchmarks are admittedly outdated now because, as this submission points out, npm 6 introduced significant improvements over npm 5. Despite that, pnpm is still an underappreciated contender in the space.

I'm still seeing similar results (~1M req/sec) after compiling your latest version of memcached from github and running with 16 worker threads. I just spun up two r4.4xlarge instances (one for client and one for the memcached server). I'm using memtier_benchmark with pipelining of 16 requests, 100B values, 10:1 get/set ratio. I compiled mc-crusher but you'll have to let me know the command to run because the readme wasn't clear.

One main constraint here is that we are using AWS virtual machine instances on the cloud. My guess is your previous experience is with physical servers. The FPGA performance is also significantly better when you can use the physical board with a direct ethernet connection, pipelining isn't required in this case the FPGA can handle minimum sized ethernet packets at line rate.

Another question, in your experience is compression/encryption used much with memcached? Because this is another area where the FPGA can compute much faster.
