I find this to be less of a whitepaper and more of an opinion piece. For e.g.

"For example, two business parties transacting would not need to maintain their own record of the transaction and would use the blockchain as a single source of truth instead."

Ummmmmm...isn't the whole idea of blockchain that we all have a copy (our version of the truth) and a transaction is validated by several participants or miners? That's basically how we get rid of the middlemen? The sentence is clearly trying to convey that this is somehow more efficient than a current system based on a centralized authority, but there's no actual evidence that this is true.

Blockchain might bring efficiency to an industry like shipping that currently uses a VERY inefficient system, but it's disingenuous to tell others (especially if you are trying to sell something), that it is more efficient than a well implemented centralized system.

That makes no sense.

I think a more sensible take is that PayPal's AML/KYC process is a little too coarse-grained and poorly implemented.

> The BSD userland is genuinely more user-friendly - I strongly prefer software with functionality I might actually need

I see your point, but quite frankly I like the fact that in some cases I need something outside the usual use case and most times gnu grep (and other gnu utilities) have me covered and I don't have to go crazy fiddling with stuff.

It's just preferences, I guess?

Perhaps it is not meant for you, but for fans of a given media whose popularity warrants creating the consumer-insertion profitable. It is a different type of media, beyond product placements; consider the ability for fantasy fulfillment or impressionability. A lot of marketers would love to have such a technology. The idea is to offer it to consumers who willingly insert themselves into desirable scenarios for the media itself. A lot of consumers would do this, and the product placement capabilities are endless.
If you get a mitmproxy working, you probably won't need the Wireshark bits. Getting ephemeral keys out can be tricky and might not even be worth the trouble.

Sometimes I find it convenient to redirect traffic with iptables. That way, if I can classify which traffic interests me, only that traffic will pass through the proxy for inspection. A warning though, SSL specific problems tend to go away when being looked at that way :).

A third method I know people use is LD_PRELOADing a hook in the application to dump keys (search for sslkeylog.c for an example) but that's far too exciting for me to try in production. Between these three methods I tend to reach for the proxy first.

I believe this is the main site for the TCL programming language and its TK GUI ToolKit:

TK is ported to various OSes and languages. It seems popular enough so that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/tk redirects to the toolkit instead of the TLD.

Free domain names! But the free ones have to have "regular traffic", the definition of which is not in the Wikipedia page. If you don't want to have to have a site that gets regular visitors, you can outright buy the domain at varying prices.

But to get to the TL;DR: free domain names! (Some restrictions apply, see far-away-country dealer for details.)
It's too bad I can't really recommend "Have your life ruined" as a cure for worrying, because it works like a charm. Not only do big, real problems put little, hypothetical ones out of your mind toute de suite, they also give you a chance to prove to yourself, in your handling of them, that you might possess enough wits, resources, badass characteristics, or simply patience with situations that truly suck ass, to actually handle most problems big or small, and know that you'll be pretty much okay no matter what happens.

Some people worry because of things they've been through, but if you're the type who worries about things you've never been through and will probably never go through, going through some actual shit will put an end to that. It worked for me. A several-year period that included the deaths of loved ones, long-term unemployment, divorce, etc., made me start focusing on what's important and, more to the point for your question, completely stop worrying about stuff that's not important. It sucked though, and it's really not the sort of thing you can plan, per se. But I came out of it and now it's like, yeah go ahead and try to threaten me... I'm not scared of anything after all that!
Are they doing this to increase the number of non-spam domains so the overall .tk domain use looks more legitimate?

You’re all over the place. You like the TPP, the TPP is crap because of the US (under Obama) added things you don’t like, Trump is an idiot for not signing it.

Agreements that can’t be read and comprehended in one day aren’t good agreements. I stand by that, no matter what Trump says, no matter what you say.

I’m not arguing about trade imbalances on a surplus/deficit amount. I don’t care about the amount. I care about access to markets and a level playing field. There is no hypocrisy there.

The difference between you and I, is that I’m willing to admit where you are right. The US subsidizes farmers and other industries. I imagine those are up for negotiation too.

I also admit Trump acts like a horses ass. I’m just willing to let that slide if he’s an effective horses ass.

I also haven’t implied you’re stupid.

Go is simple in the sense that there is very little "magic", i.e. very little code that executed that might not be obvious right away: No constructors, no destructors[0], no operator overloading, etc. This makes relatively easy to get a reasonably-accurate mental model of what is going on. Perhaps more importantly, its community has a culture that encourages simplicity of design, avoiding fancy tricks, etc.

Using features like concurrency and interfaces in ways that are considered idiomatic is not exactly trivial, I think. But it's not that hard, either. At work, I have been using C# quite a bit lately, and while I think it is a well-designed language, it is far more complex than Go (cough async cough).

I don't think what you are saying is wrong, but I think the title of the posting is easily misunderstood.

[0] IIRC, one can ask for a "cleanup" function to be called when an object is about to be harvested by the garbage collector, but one has to do so explicity, and from what I have seen, it is not used commonly.
Were the system pods using all that memory or just reserving it? It's not straightforward to scale them, because the node might run just your tiny Rust server or 20 high traffic web apps. You don't want the log agent to keel over just because of the latter. GKE and many other Kubernetes deployments use something called addon-resizer to determine CPU and RAM given to cluster services. The problem is that, typically, it scales based on node count and the settings are usually conservative on the lower end, i.e. your case of a single node. I think it assumes clusters are all at least 10/15 nodes. On a test cluster, I see the metrics server using only 16MB of RAM, but it requests 104MB. Ironically, the autoscaling nanny in the same pod uses another 8MB.

This is a known issue that is not easy to solve in the general case. I think Tim Hockin ran a conversation about how to autoscale on the very low end at last year's Kubecon, with people like you in mind. The other use case he brought up is how to set up services in a Minikube cluster that might be running in a 2GB VM.

You can call it what you want. I've been in the field for 20 years and have seen many hundreds of people cure so-called lifelong diseases. But sure, wait on the medical world to admit it, because they have all the incentive in the world NOT to do it if they want to keep the money flowing.
If I understand you correctly: it's not that this is a law against memes. Rather, blocking memes is one of the unintended effects that the new law would have, for the reason you said.

In the US the university experience allows a ridiculously care-free existence for many students, temporarily. A while back a friend in university was stuck with a deadbeat live-in GF that he couldn't get to leave. He ended up getting a copy of GTA Vice City and focusing on it until she voluntarily left without a fuss a week later. The GTA franchise in general aren't extremely addictive games, but the negative impact of chosing to spend free time with a game as apposed to a GF or family can cause real problems.

Now QML has its warts for sure, but it benefits from being designed with well-known use cases in mind, so it has lots of features suitable to them.

HTML was designed for structured, flowing text documents and everything else got bolted on top with only partial awareness of where the journey was headed (reading up on the origins of stylesheets and the relevant discussions is interesting in this respect). As a result it's just a mess for what it's used for now, pain-alleviating salves like flexbox notwithstanding.

When I do any non-trivial UI in the web stack, I can feel I am in continuous workaround territory. I'm trying to bend something ill-suited to my will. I don't get that feeling with QML.
From the article:

"For over a decade, Cummings and others have tried to reframe the very concept of bariatric surgery (they prefer “metabolic surgery”). Their work has shown these procedures just don’t change how much food the stomach can fit; they trigger a cascade of metabolic and bodily changes, many of which help people with type 2 diabetes naturally get their blood sugar under control. Some changes even start happening before a patient loses weight, such as higher levels of peptide production in the gut that seem to restore a patient’s sensitivity to insulin."
There could be more to it. There's a hypothesis that microbiome changes could be a contributing factor[0].

Restricting food intake is similar in that it reduces stomach capacity[1], though almost certainly not as drastically as surgery. Lots of people have already mentioned fasting in this thread; I'll add an anecdote that for a few days after a fast, I get full much more quickly.

It's for you. And me. And any person or organization that wants to put up a video for the public to see.

But it's not for people and organizations who are being funded to put up those videos. If you are deriving revenue from that video stream, whether or not it's a "profit" legally, then it's not unreasonable for you to be expected to pay for it. Advertising with shared revenue is the standard mechanism for paying for youtube videos.
It's hard to define, but you can know it when you see it.

> These days, the best bet for beating the compiler is to use vendor intrinsics (for SIMD, encryption, bit-twiddling, etc)

Well, I would not count that as "beating" the compiler so much, but as "using it", "helping it", or something like that. ;-)

Anyway, when I still wrote C code for a living, we were using the OpenWatcom compiler, and as far as I could figure out at the time, it made no effort whatsoever to support SIMD, and the only way to use them was to drop to assembly. (OpenWatcom's support for inline assembly and even inline binary code was very nice, though.)
I looked into getting it, and the doctor's office was surprised that my insurance didn't cover it. They said that the usual version of my plan normally covers it but my employer had a stipulation that specifically excluded weight loss surgery. $15k out of pocket if I want to do it. I probably should.
I think the plan would be to eventually render a QML based interface on a webgl canvas, which in theory would have a better performance than a DOM based interface.
I have never heard of an association of obesity with autism. Claiming the converse wouldn't startle me as much, but surely the incidence of obesity and type 2 diabetes are far, far greater than autism.

While it's not exactly the same thing but Facebook needs to tighten up their rules. I got in a squabble with someone who wanted my FB identity.

Even though I didn't follow him he filled out a form online and had me declared deceased. It took me close to a week, with the intervention of a friend who worked at Facebook, to get my account back.

How can someone who you don't even follow back be allowed to do something like this to someone? I had to prove that I was alive, complete with photos of me with my drivers license.

But why is a complete stranger without any proof whatsoever able to have me declared dead? Facebook needs to rethink these rules. Seems to me in this case the guys widow should be the one who has final say over his account.

it sounds trivial because you are trusting. fb has a duty to protect itself (and its users) against fraudulent requests. acheiving this with low wage factory-like processing by contractors not paid to think across many languages and cultures is in the realm of hard.

Netrek: The First Online Sports Game
There were similar, but in my experience, more vibrant, communities for Diablo I (DSF, LurkerLounge, RBD). Variants (Self-imposed restrictions) were far more prominent in Diablo I [1]. Pretty much everyone in the DSF maintained at least one or two variant characters, even if it was just a naked mage or a SNOB.

Diablo II, especially after LOD, just didn't feel as fun with most self-imposed restrictions. Too much power creep came from gear and patches, enemy health and damage scaled too much, and due to immunities [2], too many strategies for dealing with problematic enemies involved running past or parking them. In Diablo I, with its tile-based movement system, this had to be done incredibly carefully. In Diablo II... It's much more difficult to be boxed in, and if things don't work out well, just save and exit, and reset the level.

[1] https://www.realmsbeyond.net/diablo/variants.html

[2] Immunities worked much better in Diablo I. Every character had a reasonable answer to immune enemies. In Diablo II, with its locked skill trees, there was much less headspace for dealing with them - unless you use overpowered gear!
