I think it’s clear we will inevitably need those floating ocean cities that Peter Thiel talked about, where tech companies can be free to operate outside of irrational and ill-drafted geopolitical laws, and any country that doesn’t want citizens to access their content must simply block them off with a country wide firewall, and make criminals out of those who go around it. It is unlikely they will differentiate between child pornographers and unauthorized social media perusers in that case.
You cannot have an binding agreement between everybody if anybody can get out at any time. My thesis is that managing money supply requires such an agreement. Of course you can have unmanaged money - historically we always had that - with gold standard and shells. But it is probably less efficient - because it means you cannot adjust money supply to the state of economy.
But cog can be used for other file types. I can imagine adding it to documents to get a kind of poor man's Mathcad.

I think the one of the key differences is that Cranelift are more low-level
Letting minorities into universities and thinking "case closed" has ruined them. The current (leftist) propaganda is in the form of "if you build it, they will come". Its proponents focus solely on some measurable metrics (grades, degrees, salaries) without noticing that it originally was, at least to some degree, about capabilities. It's much easier to demand better grades/more degrees/higher salaries for minorities instead of actually making sure that they gain the same professional capabilities. Hence many people simply game the system by lowering the requirements. In consequence, achieving academic success through hard work becomes a liability for your personal career plan and then capabilities are simply lost.

Exhibit a: how many CS graduates over the last 20years could explain how a OS context switch works.

Exhibit b: how many graduates of med school know how to integrate a simple polynomial.
This reminds me of the awful Cloudfront vulnerability where any jerk can park your domain names in Cloudfront with no verification. One day you'll put one of your domains behind Cloudfront and suddenly they own your website.

Scenario:

1. Today your DNS records look like this because you aren't using Cloudfront:

site.com -- A --> 1.2.3.4
www.site.com -- CNAME --> site.com

2. Some jerk with an AWS account registers "www.site.com" in Cloudfront.

3. Tomorrow you create a cloudfront distribution for site.com and change site.com to a CNAME to "d12345abcdef.cloudfront.net". Instantly you're owned on WWW.site.com because it indirectly points to Cloudfront and you forgot to register that alias in AWS. Oh and guess what? The jerk can issue SSL certs for your domain name through Lets Encrypt because all they need to do is put a well-known file off your domain.

4. You have a bug bounty program (right?!) and pay quick, big money out to some researcher who is, thankfully, not a jerk.

Good times.
I respect your choice and would likely do the same now and then. However, i think it could be beneficial if publishers realize DRM free books get pirated less or even bought more often :)

I said publishers but i am not sure who wants this to be enforced in this case. Its just usually the case that its the rights holder like film studios or music labels but in this case i could see amazon wanting it for themselves too.
Detecting Personal Data Within API Communication Using Deep Learning
In Bulgaria we had drinks named "Etar", and "Altai" that were probably the "Coca-Cola"/"Pepsi" meant to be cheap replacements. I loved them as a kid, along with plenty other sugary drinks (Schweppes, "Швепс" was probably the most popular brand)

As for "Tuzik" shops, we had Corecom shops - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corecom - e.g. a way to spend your foreign (and "evil") currency with fancy things. Getting Pez, Toblerone, or Kinder's Surpise egg was one of the best thing that could happen to a kid. I must've been 4 or 5, asking friends & colleagues of my grandma (at her work, she would pick me with her to be there) "Please, give me some dovari" (dovari, my mis-pronounciation of "dolari"/долари - e.g. dollars). She was a manager there, and one of her worker's husband used to be a sailor, or maybe a truck driver (T.I.R.) - those folks would come with "lots" of dollars, and we may even get bananas and oranges for Christmas, and empty cans from Coke (I'm not kidding, these were valueable, as you could've make a pencil holder, and was fancy to have anyway).

Then every house had this pretty cool looking book called Neckermann - basically this - https://www.neckermann.de/ - you go visit someone, and they'll show you the latest Neckermann - it's not that you can buy, and even if you have the money to know how - but it was cool way of showing off, and talking about things...

Gosh, I do miss, and then not these times...
I have no idea why the design is that way, though.

Cost, maintenance, weight, etc., probably. The only jet airliner I can think of that uses an "all-flying tail" is the Lockheed L-1011. Nearly every other plane you'd be riding on will have a big stabilizer and a smaller elevator.
I highly doubt all of those. Probably confounded with general junk food consumption.
Should she be in a position where her opposition to trans people can possibly have a direct effect on the lives of trans people?

If one side of the argument is "trans rights matter" and the other is "trans people are just men cosplaying as women", then morally you can only choose the "trans rights matter" side. Any political concerns take a backseat to the direct wellbeing of trans people.
The 50 phds thing is exactly what certain large firms are doing. The emperor's new hedge fund. I know people who've worked at major firms, and they've told me what they do. But you are going to have a hard time doing a startup with 50 phds.

Madoff was the cause of all the due diligence, though I'd say Europe was a bit different from the US at the time.
The grandparent comment's specifics are off a bit, but I think the general principle --it takes money to make money -- concisely explains a good portion of the underclass' economic predicament.

I'm going to have a blog post about the economic situation that led me to taxi driving. The tl/dr is basically that they loaned me a car for 12 hours at a time. In the beginning I made enough to make it worth my while...

One obstacle is credibility: Since the dawn of the internet there have been companies trying to recruit users by pretending that someone winked at you, or similar. That would be my working assumption, getting a message from you. How do you get past this?
They are integrating multiple hospitals in the precinct. I guess the thought is that the project complexity is best handled by outsourcing to Epic.
If my understanding is correct, the Doctrine of First Sale only applies if you buy a physical asset, like a CD or an actual book.
I pay for my content but I also pirate copies of everything I like. Every DVD, ebook, audible audiobook, favored Netflix series, and graphic novel has a version in my personal archive. Hell, I even keep offline copies of my favorite YouTube videos and site mirrors of my favorite webcomics. Go down the list of your "liked" YouTube videos and take note of how many of them are now lost to you, through account terminations or being marked private. If you don't take control of the things that're important to you, you leave the door open for someone to take them away.
There used to be a popular usenet group for travel, which illustrated why you don’t see this these days.

The only people who hang out in such a place are “seasoned traveller” folk, who are primarily interested in signalling that they’re the travelliest traveler. So the interaction was always the same:

Newbie asks a simple question about Bangkok, somebody answers then four people jump in to battle over where in fact is the true best neighbourhood to stay in bkk.

Eventually the place just gets left to those four guys fighting over the title of Alpha Traveler. It’s not a pleasant place.

Well now we have Boza in Bulgaria - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boza - no it ain't Kvass, but it was the "Bulgarian" kvass - e.g. the drink that defines a nation.... then again there is Ayran (lol, just found out by googling that it's also called "Doogh" or "tan") - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doogh

But boza was served to us, since kindergarten, and it has a little percentage of alcohol - not much, but still :)
Go to Aliexpress or Ebay and search for JCOP. JCOP 3 should be contactless cards, JCOP 21 - not. Order whichever you want and then look for a card reader to match, keyword here is CCID. Some stuff you might see might be expensive, especially on Ebay, don't buy expensive stuff.

your rightfully angry about certain aspects of tech industry

worse thing you can do is have your anger misdirected in thinking this legislation will serve to improve the situation. this is about control. this is not about addressing root cause of problems like brexit, trump, brazil, etc.
> The more independently operating companies there are operating their own cables, the more room there is for free market to operate.

> That being said, I do believe the notion of big corporations with pre-existing near monopolies on e.g. search or online retail with yearly revenues exceeding the gross national product of most nations on this planet, is not necessarily good for a free market

To me, those two statements sound contradictory. Do you want a "free market" or don't you? If it's a free market, you have to expect that the organizations with the deepest pockets that stand to gain the most from larger internet pipes are going to be the ones to invest in it.

I'm certainly no expert, but it seems to me that the more ideal situation would be that core infrastructure like the internet is driven primarily by public money. The obvious argument against that is maybe it won't grow as phenomenally fast as it has, but maybe we don't really need to be able to stream those 4K cat videos when, like you said, in doing so we're empowering for-profit organizations to grow larger than the GDP of many nations.

> There have been some demands for some of these companies to be broken up and IMHO that would actually be a good thing.

At least we're in 100% agreement here!
> But unless mobile carriers start offering very cheap plans for IOT devices (which is in itself unlikely)

I would have thought there was something equivalent of the electricity duck curve for *G and they've got plenty of bandwidth to sell at certain times of day.
I don’t suppose tours will be available here either?
5G is subject to more overhype than No Man's Sky. You'll be able to blow through the data cap on your "unlimited" plan in ten minutes instead of forty-five.
Sometimes I feel many comparisons against LLVM's performance is somewhat unfair: You can easily reach -O0/-O1 performance of LLVM with much simpler infrastructure and only a limited number of cheap passes, which leads to a considerable performance boost, but many competitors like Cranelift claiming they are fast in compilation will never reach -O2 performance without major infrastructure changes.

These compilers are mainly designed for extreme performance. People complaining slow compilation of LLVM must never used ICC's -fast mode before, where a helloworld can take ~30s to compile. Developers still spend thousands on it because it squashed every drop of performance.

Lots of people have gotten into lots of positions. If what's being looked for is intelligent people to discuss ethics, there's really no shortage of them. I don't see any value in including a representative of an organization known for arguing in bad faith.

If we're going to drastically reduce CO2 emissions, we'll probably have to replace blast furnaces with something like hydrogen direct reduction, which needs boatloads of electricity to produce the hydrogen.
> then morally you can only choose the "trans rights matter" side

I don't think that word means what you think it means. If you think that it's acceptable to twist the words of someone you disagree with to say that, you have no basis on which to make moral judgements.
The Google AI Council (1) bears a strong resemblance to the Defense Innovation Board (2). I think Google's main error is that the membership was too small. The dilutional power of increased membership would have made it harder to make a show out of any individual selectee.

Plenty of board memberships are unpaid, specifically the DoD has a bunch of them. The parent organization still pays all the fees for events, so the members are on a level playing field. As for disadvantaging the poor ... what? These councils are literally about establishing leadership positions at the national and international level. You need people with intimate visibility on the great issues of our time. If you're starting a board on prison reform, then, sure, a couple ex-cons should be on the board. But even then, you're going to look for an ex-con who went on to build a business or change the world in some way.

I don't know. I've presented to some of these "toothless" boards before, and I have to say, they were, to a T, very clever people who have worked very hard for their whole lives. I don't get the sense they're in it for the press or even for the networking. They're thinking hard and working hard, trying to get a CEO or equivalent leader to turn the ship.

Sorry, it wasn't intended to be passive-aggressive, I was curious what the issue was, since by reading their documentation it should work. The tax question was a separate issue with using crypto, not an implication it was related. You didn't really address any of my criticisms however including the pending shutdown of crypto exchanges in Mexico or how reporting requirements factor into your cost calculations.

Either way, another legitimate option for you to consider is an Interactive Brokers account which has great forex options (interbank rates) and Mexico is a supported country. They charge a commission of 0.2 basis points (0.2/100 of a percent) with a minimum of $2USD per order. There really are a lot of legitimate options that don't require cryptocurrency. People have been trading currencies for hundreds of years.

There's a great writeup on the way you can do it here: https://gfmasset.com/2018/09/better-than-transferwise-saving...

A license isn't only about technical knowledge. It also tests you on ethical issues, historical issues, complaints, and record lookups.
The subheading does say this:

So it might not be correct to say the article is promoting the book, rather, the article is adapted from parts of the book.
I remember drinking this all the time when I visited the Czech republic som (17?) years ago, nice spiced flavour.
I don't care about that, could not care less: I just do make -j 96 and go do something else. The only thing that matters is very fast code. Back-end optimizers cost CPU cycles, there's no way around that. Expecting fast compilation times when iropt and lto have to do their thing is incredibly naive. How can anyone in this day and age be so naive?
Teller was a psychopath, pure and simple. He was also pretty smart which made him even more dangerous, I reguard him as one of the few humans whose decisions and actions could have wiped us all out as a species.
If you read some history you realize that British exit from India, Egypt and Suez Canal, Palestine, Indonesia etc. had been very similiarly chaotic, unprepared and irresponsible.

So this is trurly the last act for British rulling class. One where tragedy becomes comedy.

Double check the table on that article, particularly the scale.

Then as a quick sanity check, consider whether the thing you are actually predicting will in fact use more electricity than the world uses, and still carry on growing exponentially.

Has that ever worked for you with the WSJ paywall? Not for me.
We're a small independent ebook retailer and we're pushing for DRM-free content with publishers. We've added a DRM-free section to the site: https://www.ebooks.com/drm-free and any search that run you can filter by DRM-free content.

We also offer DRM-free PDFs that are correctly formatted, unlike what you'd get from the Google Bookstore (they convert from ePub). This is particularly important for publishers like O'Reilly who no longer sell copies outside a subscription from their site. Some authors help us out a lot by linking to us directly: https://dataintensive.net/buy.html

It's a slow process getting publishers on board, but more are moving across to DRM-free or social DRM (watermarking) which is a step in the right direction.

One just worked for me for this specific article.
This is not a great idea in my opinion, here's why:

One should never feel withdrawn from any conversations, or exploring their feelings. If you want to ask someone out, but have fear/anxiety, you have a "problem" you need to address bravely. Get to the bottom of your fears, reach a conclusion and act on it. Whatever happens, happens. Using thoughter just leaves you buried in your comfort zone, making you never questioning the nature of your own self. It's an easy way out or an excuse for not being accountable to your self. Leaving result of important situations in your life to external circumstances is not a good idea.

> The laws of genetics, like other inventions and discoveries, are crystals inherent in the technium, awaiting to materialize. There is nothing magical about these patterns, nothing mystical about technology having a direction. Every technology in the abstract is a latent structure

This reminds me of Meditations on Moloch, a great essay by Scott Alexander (https://slatestarcodex.com/2014/07/30/meditations-on-moloch/):

> Just as the course of a river is latent in a terrain even before the first rain falls on it – so the existence of Caesar’s Palace was latent in neurobiology, economics, and regulatory regimes even before it existed. The entrepreneur who built it was just filling in the ghostly lines with real concrete.

Interesting stuff. Quite a while ago I wrote something vaguely similar using JScript to make a demo of a sort of 'mathematical' document editor as part of the VB Classic Wikibook, see https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Visual_Basic/JArithmetic

This is for OpenBSD. What about for us lowly Debian users? Anybody know how I can do something similar? :)
> The point is that once you've decided the it is OK for the government to regulate at this level, there is no room for complaining when government wants to intervene in anything else.

As a society we have already decided that minimum wage is necessary. We have federal, state and now local minimum wages, considering the plethora of locals that actively fought to put these laws in place (and continue to fight to protect them), it stretches believability to call this a government overreach.

Going off on your wild tangent about licensed, skilled labor, there has been no movement to have a group like the Bar (licensing lawyers), Engineering Boards (licensing engineers), or even a state license like Cosmetology: https://www.dol.wa.gov/business/cosmetology/get_school.html

Attempts by state engineering boards thus far have seen few apply for a Professional Engineering license and sit for the requisite exam, to the point that few states offer it anymore (IIRC there are only a few dozen licensed PEs of Software in the states that did have boards that offered it). In this context, what you suggest would be an industry wrecking move that would likely never happen.
