To be clear, in a world where people still haven't solved password security, you're proposing a solution that has people generating multiple functionally composable metadata keys in order to retain anonymity on an otherwise massive public ledger?

The original problem is that it's too easy to make fake comments on a basic website. You're talking about users keeping their metadata keys "operationally separate from their full IDs" and "updating them at random intervals." How did we get here?
We still don't have price transparency, so it's not surprising the customers of health don't shop around.

I went to a grocery store health clinic without insurance and asked how much it would cost to see the doctor.

They were surprised I asked how much it cost, since they just assumed my insurance would pay for it. After insisting, I finally was able to get them to look it up. They told me it would be $100, but during my exit (and payment) they increased the price to around $200 based on my diagnosis. I asked why it should cost me more money for the doctor to diagnose me with something else, when the doctor didn't do any other special tests (e.g. I wasn't paying for a medical test), and they said "That's just the way it works."

Incorrect. Under both the current and revised versions of 47 C.F.R. 1.717, the complaint goes to the FCC; the FCC forwards it to the respondent, and may order it to file a response which either states the complaint has been satisfied, or explains why the carrier cannot or will not do so:

> The Commission will forward informal complaints to the appropriate carrier for investigation and
may set a due date for the carrier to provide a written response to the informal complaint to the
Commission, with a copy to the complainant. The response will advise the Commission of the carrier’s satisfaction of the complaint or of its refusal or inability to do so.

It's less that other letters are reserved, and more that there are only eight general-purpose registers, and four of them already have special meanings.

A is the accumulator, F is flags, and as the sibling comment mentioned, H and L represent the high and low bytes of HL, which is the only 16-bit register you can use for indirect memory access in most instructions. It's also used in some control-flow instructions.

That leaves four remaining registers, which just so happen to fit perfectly into the remaining space: B, C, D, and E. (They can also be accessed as BC and DE with 16-bit instructions.)
Miniservices: A Realistic Alternative to Microservices
It really doesn't seem like they have any compelling product for the gaming area - in all honesty with that amount of hardware it could definitely be prettier. It doesn't pick up the room better than a Playstation Vita camera. It can't track objects well enough to keep items in place, and I'd bet they drift over time too. It looks like they really truly have nothing to show.

They're going to ship by September? If they were launching a "console" like the Graeme Devine says you'd have a lot more compelling demos at this point. Please by all means prove me wrong but I can't understand how they could get any more money from Google et al.
Exactly this.

My other beef with twitter is a more sophisticated way to filter my timeline. I mean something that would make sense to a programmer, not the typical user friendly useless thing.

Elon Musk Defends His Rejected Mini-Sub Plan for Thai Cave

https://nyti.ms/2NCzvi6?smid=nytcore-ios-share

>He said the expert was Richard Stanton, one of the first two British cave divers to reach the soccer team, and Mr. Musk shared an email in which Mr. Stanton had asked him to “please keep working on the capsule details.”

>But a spokesman for Mr. Stanton said Tuesday that the cave proved to be too narrow for the mini-submarine.

Crazy how the Thai official in charge doesn’t know what he’s talking about, and now Stanton doesn’t know either! Why is the world conspiring against Musk with these lies?

Where’s your messiah now?
This is where some of the real value of tradition lies. It's in the art of handing something down from mentor to protege, the time spent learning the craft, learning respect for what was done before, true appreciation for labour and effort.

Oh my, that definitely should be filed under: "Be Careful What You Wish For"

I suspect such a change as that would end up annoying the living you know what out of most every user on Twitter. They should let YOU configure YOUR OWN account to see everything. But I'd be really hesitant to do that for every account on Twitter by default. That just would not end well.
Thanks! DIRT is a fundamentally different approach because it removes the middleman and there is no central moderator. Our goal is to move the trust from a central party to a system of rules that anyone can participate in.

I think verified identity could be a registry on DIRT. Adding reputation on top of voting is something we're exploring.

A few years ago I met a woman from Alaska. She told me she went to college in Chicago and she barely made it through the first winter. Her friends said "What's your problem? You're from Alaska!" She replied "You don't understand. We never get this cold at home."

Of course Alaska is a big state and not all of it is freezing, but still. Chicago winters are impressive.

I think your numbers are pretty optimistic. You're neglecting depreciation for one. Panels have a lifetime in the range of 20-30 years, inverters have a lifetime in the range of 10 years. 4% is also an optimistic interest rate for a loan that lasts the lifetime of the system. You may be able to get that for a ~5 year loan, but then you need to include the higher opportunity cost of the money that was used to pay that loan off which will be tied up for 20+ years.
> “It was just a pattern for me — to open my phone and I would have nowhere to go,” she said. “I was just looking at a screen. It was kind of weird, so I’m trying not to do that.”

I found out I did the exact same thing when I deleted my Reddit account and set limits here on HN. I used to find myself unlocking my phone, looking at it, opening Google News to the same old articles, then locking it and doing something else. I have gotten much more stuff done now that I don't stare at Reddit/HN/other all day.

I feel like society should try to back away from being slaves to our technology, and maybe the popping of the social media bubble, via people realizing how much data they collect, may be the trick to do this.
We are building something very similar to this with Rlay[0], though we usually don't frame it with the Wikipedia/Wikidata story. One of the factors that incentivices contribution of data in the first place, is that if you deposit tokens for a propositon earlier, you will be rewarded higher than if you do that later. Thus participants try to be the first ones to submit a certain piece of information.

[Cynic's hat on] And they can only do this now, having shown the ability to turn a profit.

Up until now, Twitter has been forced to operate in "growth for its own sake" mode. Investors keep myopically staring at user numbers, confident that there's a way to turn the faucet on, consistently and repeatedly tapping the userbase for pennies per person. The bot accounts don't make them money, so getting rid of them are likely to actually improve the bottom line.

But the sad fact is that until recently Twitter have been financially disincentivised from cracking down on fake accounts.

"Upholding the Constitution", among the far right, is dogwhistle for supporting white supremacy or other regressive policies.

Before Wikipedia, the idea that an openly edited online journal would be better and more accurate alternative to Encyclopedia Brittanica would be surprising to most people.

There's two parts of the design that leads to more accuracy for DIRT:

1. Skin in the game - a token deposit to write encourages accuracy because you can lose the deposit if you are incorrect.

2. Encouraging moderation - moderators can earn tokens. If you vote and challenge correctly, you can earn tokens. This creates an economic reward for moderators that can protects the data accuracy in the long term.

We're posting the whitepaper and more importantly, launching the protocol with a first application in the coming months. Stay tuned!

Not sure if it falls under "industrial" but commercial use (shopping centres, offices, etc) fits with solar brilliantly, and at least where I live, offices are rushing to get panels on their buildings. We had it quoted for our co-working space, and the pay-off time was 3-5 years, which is amazing.
The exceptions to the exceptions to the exceptions on immunity are confusing. You seem to be referring to self-defense cases, which are something else altogether and not limited to law enforcement.

IMO it's newsworthy that this feature is going to exist and a lot of people outside of the tech world have no idea unless someone tells them about it. We've been reading about "phone addiction" in newspapers for ages, now there are tools to help manage it.

If you're a parent of teenagers with iPhones this is a pretty big story and the headline at least answers the implied "did it work?" question instead of trying to bait you with it.
Where it's hot, people come home from work as the sun is setting, and turn on the A/C. It can be 85F overnight in many parts of the world, which makes sleep very difficult.
Also, the 68020 did not have an MMU on-board. You still required a separate MMU chip, such as the 68551. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_68851

The 68030 and above did come with MMUs, except for low-cost versions of the chip.

Why do I remember this stuff? I was a big Motorola fan back in the 90's (Amiga especially)
FWIW Haswell - on which this was benchmarked - does not downclock on AVX2; it just boosts vcore and thermal throttles if the cooling solution can't keep the die below ~100C (which of course, the crappy TIM plus bundled desktop heatsink have essentially zero chance of doing with many extended workloads). To preclude thermal throttling the auto-downclock-on-AVX2 was added later, I think for Skylake.
What we the people are demanding are insanely hard puzzles. Not an enumeration of hard games on the 6x6 board, but a heuristic generator for the 7x7 or the 8x8 or even the 10x10 if need may be, of games that seem utterly intractable for the first few hours.
$40k year is below the cost of living, or will be, in many regions. People also use 401ks for home loans, and for other lie events. I took a 401k loan to make the down payment on my first house.

Most high income truly rich people aren't using 401ks for retirement, it seems to me that once again, people are going after the professionals who are squeezed in the middle, who already pay high tax rates because most of their income is wages -- doctors, lawyers, engineers, and avoiding the top 0.1% and others who amass vast returns and mostly avoid income taxes.

Maybe we could try going after the big fish first before we start raiding retirement savings?
Fascinating article that suggest two things to me:

1) The impact of such tools is heavily affected by the individual. Sophie's personal awareness and will power seem incredibly strong. As she is the child of a NYT editor, this doesn't seem surprising.

2) If people are demanding tools to help them limit their screen consumption time, brands will need to rely more heavily on 'IRL' ways to get in front of consumers (e.g. experiences, events, etc.)

It's interesting to me, though not surprising, the the author is so surprised that a software/UI feature could be successful in reducing usage. As if being addicted to phone/software were an inextricable psychological/physiological characteristic/flaw.

I used to use Reddit and Facebook a lot more regularly -- more than daily. But ever since I changed my password to something that I can't recall without a password manager, and added 2-factor auth, I rarely get on just because the lack of ease of use is enough deterrence. Ever since I did a system wipe a few weeks ago, I haven't checked facebook at all because I can't be bothered to get into my password manager.

Though if I were being honest, I now have the meta problem of forcing myself to throw away the keys. I did the same thing with Twitter, even removing it from my phone. Then I reinstalled and logged in because I wanted to stay up to date on a current event one day. Now for a week I've been putting logging out and deleting my cookies.
I had that option for a while and got annoyed by it. I turned it off, because it was often activated right before submitting or commenting (I know it gets saved and won’t get lost but still).

What I do now instead: Before picking up the phone/going online, I force myself to give myself a short reason what I want to do and why. This loop helps me to avoid 50% of pick-ups, which is not perfect, but not bad either.

You really should go check out a vineyard in November/December. It's absolutely shocking how much of the growth is removed - virtually 100% of it - each year. And every year in late winter/early spring the first bud breaks, and for the next several month you can't even fathom how much they grow.
Thanks for the comment!

Transparency would be the third benefit. With the blockchain, you can see the entire history of votes. Every transaction is recorded. Today, if a website accepts bribes for reviews, visitors to the site do not know that this happened. With DIRT, if a wealthy token holder had a lot of tokens and tries to throw a vote, you can see the attack happening.
I have been off the market for the past 6+ years because I wanted to move out of software development and get re-established in a new field (UX design). For this whole time, I have been doing independent consulting.

I built a solid reputation with many good testimonials. This year, I got into Toptal as a UX designer but haven’t gotten any contracts there yet. For both personal and professional reasons, I believe that now would be a good time to wind down my UX consulting business and work for someone else full-time.

I am fine with UX Designer, UI/UX Designer, and Product Manager roles if the emphasis is on UX. It can be with a startup, an established small/medium business, or a large company. I am not interested in graphic design or development roles.

Yeah, that's not even the hard part for the average user...

How could (should?) they use these things securely? You need to trust the hardware that's handling the keys too.

I can't escape the need for something like a no-closed-blobs dongle that /only/ does digital wallet stuff (and maybe storing files) which MUST have at least a method for the user to read the text of what they're signing, and if it has that use that to also control the 'presentation mode' of that device to the attached system.

Well, when it shipped it didn't support Fusion Drives, which were the default when High Sierra shipped. Time Machine backups fell over and quit working (somewhat different issue, agreed) and before I got them working again, FileVault 2 ate both of the disks on both of my MacBook Pros causing me substantial data loss.

I also had two macOS Servers running on mac minis and they announced that they're discontinuing it, leaving Apple with no server offering. I also removed the discontinued Apple Airports from my network.
