My layman's (IANAL) interpretation of preliminary injunctions are that the case is far from over, and this could be overturned at any time as more deliberation is done (assuming LinkedIn wants to keep throwing money at that relatively slim possibility). But now this research has been done, and future courts have the ability to look to these references and lines of reasoning all in one place.

Annuities, high grade corporate or muni bonds, mix in some high dividend yield blue chips, etc. I'd mix with some riskier investments that were higher return on average.

Nothing is guaranteed if things go totally to hell, of course. (And I did make the qualification of not being pegged to inflation.) But unless we get to a very bad place, I think that assuming 5% on these sorts of investments is a pretty safe bet.

(ADDED: But pick your own number. 3-4% probably is closer to the really very safe modulo inflation given instruments like CDs in that range. But you're reinforcing my basic point. $2M is not really the basis for a huge annual income in perpetuity or even over a multi-decade timescale if you don't have other income streams to add to that mix.)
This is great! I've often wondered how emulators are actually written - I understand the theory but it was great to see this, and the linked other emulators this person has also worked on (chip8, gameboy etc).

Super nice and simple to read - e.g. cpu.cs has the thing that does the actual "MUL" and "MOV" etc op codes. Nice :-)

Thanks :-)
>A full localization is always preferable

You'll quickly find this not to be the case for everyone if you hang around fans of Japanese games or cartoons, or really any non-casual fans of foreign media. A lot of those people prefer the translation to be as direct as possible and for the translators to do little to no localization for various reasons. The reasons are varied but include things like preserving the artist's original intent, preserving cultural nuance, fear of censorship, changes to the story lines to match local cultural sensitivities, inclusion of local cultural references that get outdated fast and many more. Some of these reasons are more valid that others, but in general localization is seen as damaging to the original work in favor of getting more sales.

Taken to the extreme this results in people doing things like learning Japanese to enjoy the originals or learning Russian to read Dostoevsky.

There is a trick to having just the right amount of localization to make the work attractive to a new audience without alienating the existing fans, and it's by no means trivial.

For the kind of people who emulate games or play fan translations, a complete localization would not be a selling point and a more direct (even if flawed) translations could be preferable, particularly because overtime these people get used to interpreting the original intent as they become familiar with the culture surrounding the games, even if they don't speak the language.
I think the big deal compared to those normal hedge fund trades would have to do with relative volume. Trading in bonds etc., a billion is relatively small and unlikely to move markets very much. In Bitcoin, a billion is a bigger deal, representing a larger chunk of the whole, and buying or selling that much has a much greater potential to move the market.

Good point. It's an app that's got a life left to it. Not much in the way of changes but it's a pretty critical piece of software. Cloned a copy, moving it to 5.2 and 6.0. Had to update ruby to 2.5.1. Looks like postgresql (which I use heavily) is also making comments about migrating data. This is not seamless. Lots of issues not to mention `rails app:update` basically wipes out the files, you go back in replace with needed info via diff, more errors. I thought that was supposed to alleviate that.

If this works I'm hoping at least pushing to Heroku will handle that part. Heroku notes the gem file and makes the required updates.
Quicklisp exists now and largely addresses this issue. It can still be difficult to discover libraries sometimes, and not everything is in it, but it’s been a major step forward.
A requirement to report taxes is not normally thought of as a threat to privacy coins per se. And the whole privacy coin thing is modelled on the belief that the state has no business knowing all your financial details.

Yes. That's the general rule--negligence of a victim does not negate the culpability of the criminal. "It was easy to commit the crime" is not a defense. If you find yourself with access to something you think you're not supposed to have access to, you're supposed to do the right thing.

> Why has Google become the new Microsoft?

Google hasn't changed, their actions have acquired increased consequences and attention. You'd have to go back to their early days to find a truly different Google, nearly two decades into the past.

Gates for example was always ruthless in business, even in the early days, it's just that few people cared about Microsoft's behavior until they became powerful. The same is true of Google and most any corporation. Google is behaving pretty much as you would expect a company in their position to, it's entirely predictable.

Amusing Gary Reback quote (he was notorious in those days for opposing Microsoft in Silicon Valley) from the 1990s Microsoft era:

"The only thing J. D. Rockefeller did that Bill Gates hasn't done," Reback would wail, "is use dynamite against his competitors!"

The Truth, The Whole Truth, and Nothing But The Truth

https://outline.com/2DKmtw
"By this logic, the most developed language ecosystems should be those built from languages which are the most difficult to develop for."

It only implies that the relationship between difficulty of development and developed ecosystem is not monotonic.

It's actually fairly normal for two parameters to be highly correlated to each other along most of their range & domain, but for the correlation to suddenly fall apart at the extreme. (I think there's a term for this, and I'm wishing I could remember it, so I could to pages I've seen discussing it. If anyone knows, links solicited.) Of course, the real problem is that there's almost certainly a lot of such parameters, and having what may be merely a "just-so" story for Lisp's general failure to set the world on fire and it's excessive power may not be particularly determinative of anything.

It does at least fit the facts. Most of the other possible answers have at least had the seed of a solution created (e.g., package manager solutions), and it still hasn't taken off, suggesting that wasn't the problem. (Though we can't eliminate the possibility it needs multiple such things.) The fact that Clojure seems to be settling into a C-list language position after its push also is suggestive of it not being any of the things that it fixed.
I think you've mischaracterized the state of things. In the underlying case, LinkedIn asserted that HiQ violated the CFAA and HiQ said LinkedIn tortiously interfered with its business. The trial court said LinkedIn couldn't assert the CFAA. LinkedIn appealed, asking the appellate court to overturn the trial court and also to hold that the tortious interference claim is preempted by the CFAA. The appellate court said no, we agree with the trial court and there's no preemption, so now HiQ can go back to the trial court and proceed to trial with its tortious interference claim.
I used to work at a small Thai restraint. Much of the secret recipes were all on a sheet where "a cup" didn't mean a full 240ml vessel, but actually the entire capacity of "some cup" in the back of the kitchen. The kicker was that the cup in question was actually a measuring cup sized to hold over a quart! So in reality, the liquid measurements in the recipes were actually double what a layperson would interpret them to be. Now I wonder, was that intentional security through obscurity?

Ah yes, the speed of smalltalk with the memory protection of C.
> “Go change the dependency” is a naive ideal. Most non-tech businesses have no budget for that kind of tech debt work.

Every non-tech business that maintains technical infrastructure finds itself doing that kind of tech-debt work regularly (if, often, chronically behind the vendors recommended schedule) for every platform they use Py2 to Py3 may (or may not, really) have been a bit more painful than a (multistep, because those types of shops never do it timely enough that a single-version-bump makes sense) .NET framework, Visual Studio, SQL Server, and Windows Server upgrade (and, yeah, those often happen together as multistep upgrades in slow enterprise shops), but it's not a fundamentally different kind of problem (and replacing dependencies that didn't make the same upgrade, often because they were abandoned years before the firm made it's upgrades, is often a part of that.)

Yes, Netherland. It's entirely possible it's required by law to pay people for the time they work, so that could explain the difference.
You generally can’t be charged with trespass unless you refuse to leave when told to do so.

An open door to a home is different, but unfenced property is 100% not trespass until you refuse to leave.
Nobody leaked any data here. These were public profiles that were "controlled" by a robots.txt file.

The judge appears to question whether robots.txt is sufficient to prevent scraping, or if a proper authorization step would be required.

The best real-world analogy I can come up with... I post a No Trespassing sign on my garden, but don't fence/gate the property. Is it ok to access the property and take my tomatoes? After all, the sign is just a suggestion... had I really wanted to prevent access, I'd install a fence.
There is no requirement to have "effective access controls." What matters is what a reasonable person would believe about whether they were allowed to access the data. The access controls are relevant only insofar as that they convey a message that access is not permitted. The effectiveness of the access control is utterly irrelevant.
> Someone achieves virality through controversy. They are promptly de-monetized, deleted, or frozen with no reason given.

In my mind the simplest explanation is not something nefarious by Google, but simply that advertisers don't want to be associated with controversial videos.

Filter, Map, Reduce explained in less than 2 minutes [video]
This design can be extended to support interactive transactions.

Here's how:

1. Assign each transaction a log position. For strict serializability instead of just serializability, make this the highest log position ever acknowledged successfully to a client. This can be batched for throughput.

2. Have each client record their read set and write set, which includes the objects/ranges the transaction read and the writes / operations to be performed.

3. Have clients persist this R/W set into the log, or send directly to the lock server if it is also the master assigning log positions. Again, use batching for throughput.

4. Have your lock server either as a part of the master processing assigning log positions, or have it tail the log separately. The lock server will receive batches of transactions, take locks in the log's defined order, then commit another entry to the log with the commit/abort decision for each.

5. Respond to the client with the commit / abort decision.

To make this easier to program you'll probably want to include a read-your-writes cache on the client.

You can also scale out this log by having clients commit their operations to multiple logs. The only thing that needs to be serialized is the locking and commit / abort decision making. These other logs can be sharded by key range or just chosen randomly, as long as the commit / abort decision log includes which other log the data itself was committed to.

FoundationDB works roughly like this. The terminology is different (resolver instead of lock server, R/W set is conflict ranges, log position is version number, etc) but this is basically how it works.
I got to see early versions of this, and it's really awesome. Every tool out there has cool features that deserve to be part of our workflow, and its great to see the potential of how we _could_ be building software. I recommend anyone to go through a bunch of these - they're fascinating!

Under limited circumstances, depending heavily on what is causing the loss, sometimes this can be effective for very few companies. Of course, many people unrealistically believe that their circumstances apply, that the cause of the loss is irrelevant, and that it will be effective for them. Most are wrong.

Losing money per transaction is dangerous. Making money per transaction but plowing the profits into expansion is less dangerous. The latter is what Amazon did. The former is what too many companies are doing, not seeing the difference.
Ah Don't know how I missed that.
The people of Catalonia and California have the rule of law and actual representation. China, as a whole, does not due to the CPC. As the CPC does not have the rule of law in China, they stand against Basic Law. CPC deliberately stands against law and human rights.

Spain and California have human rights and the rule of law, but CPC ruled China does not. The CPC is the difference and forms a fundamental difference in the examples you list.

Then why would the re-monetization and restorations happen? It makes more sense that the timing of denial is the key thing. Also, it's an article of faith for implementers of large systems, that if something can be exploited, it will be exploited. This applies as much to attention and political power as it does to monetary gain. In the case of the 1st two, the exploitation is probably done by low level employees for outside interests.

I don't think that's true. Sure you need quite some experience with the language to actually appreciate its strengths, but when optimising for low attention span and focusing on the kind of literature that allows people to jump quickly into solving problems (rather than those texts that start slowly and focus on laying out the foundation), provided existing experience with another language, you can start building things in no time. Lisp is just like any other language.

That's why today I simply point people to the cookbook [0]. If they keep the interest, they'll eventually jump to the classics.

I'm wandering what services and price structures you are referring to. Examples? While there are vast differences between what's available to low income vs., say, upper middle-class people, the differences on the other side of the distribution curve are not that dramatic.

For example, wire transfers in the US are fixed price regardless of the amount, ACH transfers are practically free, mortgage rates cannot go lower than treasury notes, etc. Or maybe I am misinterpreting who you consider as "normal people".
I would still spend it if it were easy. I bought my first Bitcoins when they were around 10 USD, so anything I buy is at one 1000th of the dollar price. Could it go to a 2000th? Yes, but apart from something huge like buying an apartment it would be hard to care about the difference.

But yes, this is not an answer that applies to deflationary currencies in general, nor to people who came later to Bitcoin than I did.

Edit: Although again, the only way Bitcoin can appreciate is if people do spend it. Tragedy of the commons.

And to help anyone else who might be confused, the device comes in two parts, a "transmitter" and a "receiver". But the transmitter detects motion by itself without needing another piece placed on the other side of the door, and the receiver is what plugs into the computer to know when to hide the windows (or execute the custom command).
Start by not relying on Full Disk Encryption, which you should absolutely have enabled but should probably, from an OPSEC perspective, pretend does not exist.

On modern operating systems you can generally mount and unmount virtual encrypted volumes that are open (ideally) only when you're actually using them to do work with their contents. There used to be a great macOS tool, called Knox, that did this graphically.
I think the security expectations for those two platforms are very different, and that's why Apple balances them differently.

MacOS gives up a lot of security for those extra abilities, and on MacOS I don't feel like I ever really had security. For example, I begrudgingly run shell injection attacks on myself every time I download some large codebase, which I am never going to review all of, or run brew, etc. It has been that way since the very beginning. Not so with iOS.
Genuine question: was it ever really the case that a large number of drug users got their drugs from a sketchy hooded person on a street corner?
The traditional defense of negative cash flow is that excessive cash means that resources are idle that could be working towards growth. This makes sense in winner-take-all markets, where getting marketshare fastest means establishing a semi-monopoly and ensuring years of profit.

I think there is some validity to that thinking, but there is an implicit assumption that one could choose to step on the brakes on growth at any time and resume positive cash flow. For many firms, that is simply not the case. The firms in that position are more desperate for growth, and in my opinion the most dangerous to all. When backed into a financial corner they make comprises that harm their customers or the ecosystem as a whole.

Therefore, I think it’s crucial to distinguish strategic cash burn vs unsustainable business model. Metrics like negative return on ad spend (ROAS) are decent indicators.
Regardless of what humans do, the question is: is God real? I have learned for myself, and now know. Anyone can if they choose to read the Book of Mormon and put it to the test: God makes a clear promise in it (in the last chapter). That gives me great help in life to deal with things and do better.

(Commandments are not intended as any excuse to quickly punish us, but are like guardrails on the highway, but He never forces our minds: we can choose, which allows us to learn and grow. I have seen that, across generations.)
