On the contrary, I found that the mornings I had a wide time margin, most things went smoothly and I could enjoy the time with my children. When I was nearly late from the start, things would go bad and soon even worse. I put it down to the difference in my patience and attitude in dealing with the inevitable little hiccups. In other words, I was to blame when we were late.
Chain reorgs and double spends are two different sets. IIRC the 2010 reorg didn't have any double spends

>It’s impossible to count how many of those abandoned transactions were successfully replayed on the new chain

To detect if transactions were double spent, you would need some sort of database. Like a data base with _really_ good integrity. Maybe with periodic and limited deltas. Increase the some of the integrity with decentralized time stamping, sleeping-beauty hashed chaining. hmmm I wonder if there is anything like that...

Cheekiness aside, it's possible a node could ascertain whether or not transactions were replayed and definitely not impossible. The steel-man reply is: node software doesn't have great resources to do it.
The threat is that more existing investors might divest.

Some of the fossil fuel companies are putting significant investment into 2nd generation biofuels, I guess because they have the potential to leverage existing infrastructure. But possibly also because they care what divestors think.
The heading about corruption in the article seems to have lost the text below it. Here is a wikipedia bit about it:

Is this more than just speculation? According to the linked occupid data (https://web.archive.org/web/20170330131859/https://theblog.o...) while women underrate attractiveness of men, the distribution of messages fllows the attractiveness curve: Men receive about the same amount of messages independent of attractiveness (https://web.archive.org/web/20170331084200im_/https://cdn-im...). Especially compared to the behaviour of men, which tend to value attractiveness much more.

One hypothesis is that it depends on the service you use. E.g., Tinder vs Okupid, where Tinder reinforces decision based on looks while Okupid encourages much more detailed profiles.

Silicon's limit is 0.7V and there is no trick against that.

No matter how efficient is your power supply, you will be losing electricity very very rapidly within single centimetres.

That's why there is no way to work around the need to move the voltage conversion on chip.

In the future we may even increase IC voltage to reduce the copper losses for very low power, but huge devices.

Step (2) involves humans, isn't it? Because for simple cases this scenario is already covered with:

- Google Sheets suggests pivot tables / charts that can be built on your worksheet data

- with our BI tool (https://www.seektable.com) everyone can upload even rather large (up to 500mb) CSV file, then engine suggests dimensions/measures automatically and even suggests some typical reports (suggestions are very simple as for now, just set of heuristics rules based on CSV column names). More than this, for CSV file user can 'ask' data with search-like queries and get an answer in form of pivot table.
Point well taken.

However, don't underestimate that the majority of people will often gravitate towards the most marketed thing, not the best designed (usable) thing.

I'm amazed at people's tolerance threshold nowadays for software that's mind-bogglingly difficult to use.

I find that technology has overall become less usable, less well-designed, more bloated, and more stuffed with eye-candy.

I’m now of the opinion that using typescript, react and Webpack every time is the right thing to do! Even for a tiny project.

Typescript has won the well typed JS war and offers the most practical solution. There are Haskellly and Lispy alternatives that are sexier but typescript feels closer to the metal and working with JS interop is sublime while getting the benefits of types for refactoring, documentation and robustness. Always use it.

React is the best front end paradigm. It provides an excellent way to reason about the front end and avoid messy state and event handlers or bindings going around cascading shit into your ui.

Webpack is cool. You’ll need something to bundle and I feel it’s a good choice. I’ve had it singing some interesting tunes! It’s very flexible.

Also git goes without saying. And the other implied tool goes literally without saying :) and not it’s not yarn!

Once you get used to these tools it’s just not worth not using them. It’s a one time investment like learning touch typing.

Yes in js you just need a script tag but most languages and platforms off the web have a bundled/build process,
Ui toolkit and typed language so I don’t see the big deal in learning these for web dev.

It is because there is no reason why you should waste your time optimizing a page with a heavy query (with thousands of inserts) from 10 seconds to the theoretical 6 seconds that are possible if its only going to be used 20 times and the rest of the time it's simply loading the last cached result?

Also from my experience the performance problems are completely divorced from ORM/not ORM. Usually the reason why you drop the ORM is that you want to take advantage of features that are not modeled by the ORM. Most query optimizations simply involve trying to do everything in as big of a batch as possible. Whether you do batching with or without the ORM isn't really relevant. The reason why people don't batch their queries when they use ORMs is because it's so trivial to not do so but there is no reason why we can't build better ORMs that make batched queries as easy to use as non batched queries which would get us both performance and convenience at the same time.

Wow, apparently they had a stock line they used when customers paid them money to try and view those messages that were sent by fake accounts, got a message saying the account was unavailable instead (because it had been deleted for being fraudulent), and complained to Match.com that they thought they'd been swindled:

"Please be assured, Match.com does not send members misleading notifications, e-mails or winks professing romantic interest. We have too much respect for our members to ever compromise their trust. If you have received communications from members with profiles that are not immediately available, the member may have temporarily hidden their profile."

That is impressively scummy.

Rumor: AMD Zen 3 Architecture to Support Up to 4 Threads per Core
Will this add a bunch of debris to the already crowded near earth space?
I'm a 7th generation Texan, still live here and was educated in the system. My dad, my grandfather, uncles all talked alot about Robert E. Lee. "A brilliant battlefield tactician and leader of the confederate army". It's absolutely awful why we seceded, I don't agree with it now. Would I have agreed 150 years ago?

I think it's easy to look back and measure him up as a bad man when you use a 2019 yardstick. Little is mentioned about his post-war efforts to encourage pacification of white on black violence, encouraging of all African American kids getting an education, and his denouncement of his own military education.

The history books should be accurate, and accurate all the way around. I ask you, what is the value of painting him a bad man if you don't also highlight his own public repentance for so many of those deeds.

My city has renamed several confederate parks, always highlighting that "Robert E. Lee fought for slavery" and "didn't want blacks to vote". Both are true statements, but you miss a huge educational opportunity and I believe a chance to teach a powerful lesson: Apologizing, rebuilding, unity, freedom - all of these things require an open and honest conversation about what happened. Lee had extremely complicated views on slavery.

His words:
'''In this enlightened age, there are few I believe, but what will acknowledge, that slavery as an institution, is a moral & political evil in any Country. It is useless to expatiate on its disadvantages. I think it however a greater evil to the white man than to the black race, & while my feelings are strongly enlisted in behalf of the latter, my sympathies are more strong for the former. The blacks are immeasurably better off here than in Africa, morally, socially & physically. The painful discipline they are undergoing, is necessary for their instruction as a race, & I hope will prepare & lead them to better things. How long their subjugation may be necessary is known & ordered by a wise Merciful Providence.'''

In summary, I don't condone him. I don't think statues are appropriate. But erasing his full life with his post-war works and efforts is losing an opportunity to heal.

So much this -- and it applies not only to bookstores but to retail in general. So many times I've thought "I should give these retail shops some support"; I go looking for something particular I want, spend several hours of my own time only to come up empty-handed because nobody had what I wanted in stock. Example: I read about some really cool Etymotic musician's earplugs. I thought great, there's actually an instrument store near my work. Walked there; nope, none in stock. Or reading about one of those induction cooktops. Went to my local big-box electronics/appliances retailer. Nope, nothing. Pretty much anything that's even slightly niche, it seems like retail just doesn't have it.

As for books in particular - Kindle wins hands-down on convenience and portability for me, over bookstores (the 'walk-out' part is definitely covered). In my particular case, as I'm vision-impaired, Kindle ALSO wins hands-down on usability, because I can make the text any size I want. That's important enough for me that it can mean the difference between actually being able to read a book and not being able to read it.

I think I have 451 Kindle books. I can carry all of those in my pocket on my phone or in my backpack on my tablet, if I want. That's another huge advantage.

I should probably mention that given all that, I _still_ like physical books! I remember walking the aisles of Borders, but that was because they were huge and they had books in the niche I was looking for. I fondly remember a small bookstore that used to specialise in software development and IT books and they had a great selection of game development books. I used to love that place! For me though, that was all before I got a taste of the convenience of Kindle. Getting the book is worth more to me than stopping and having a nice coffee at the bookstore.

Sounds like the dating rules of most Patriarch societies.

Women who aren't married at age X gets a social penalty.
Men who marry are rewarded by social rewards.

The USA has thankfully left the shackles of Patriarchy and has enabled the liberation of women and women's desires.
In this world of female first, women get to choose freely from the entire pool of men, and can dispose of them by a swipe of their finger. Should the woman like a child, there is plenty of DNA to choose from, even to be pregnant by insemination or IVF if she so desires.

You are experiencing Matriarchy in the 21th century. Welcome to the future.

> The only major remaining website that tries to match people based on interests is OKCupid. And even it is changing every few months. Unfortunately, the success of Tinder and move to mobile phones first ruined most of the dating websites, which try to emulate its success. Because people mostly use phone nowadays for dating websites, long profiles are mostly gone, sending long letters is gone, many conversations are single sentence now. Also, instead of matching based on shared interests/values, most of the matching is based on "swipe left/right on photo".

You should spend time talking women. They absolutely hated the long-form dating sites. Imagine she is sitting in a cafe. She is not out on a prowl to get married, get laid or go on a date -- she would not mind either of those three if ( long list of requirements ) but she is not here for that specific purpose. She is drinking her macha tea and reading her kindle.

Gentleman number one approaches. He smells like he did not shower in a week. He goes into a five minute pitch about his dog, Skippy, and his love for bananas. She is a cat person and she hates yellow things. The gentleman does not leave for thirty minutes

Gentleman number two approaches. He is lovely. He fumbles and cracks up a joke. She looks up at him and sees a bugger in his nose. She goes back to her book as he continues to talk to her. Eventually, she says "Look, I'm not interested." He becomes indignant and does not leave for another twenty minutes.

That's a long form dating.

Here's tinder:

She looks up, shakes her head no and a force field ejects him from her table. She does it 114 times. On a time 115 she looks up, nods and exchanges a few words with Mr. 115. If Mr 115 sparks her interest a bit and Mr. 115 decides he may want to see her again, they exchange numbers.

Ask your women friends which one of the two they prefer.
If a company issued twice as much stock, would it have a market cap that's twice as high as it's 1x issuance?

No, to suggest otherwise would be economic delusion; economic literacy doesn't seem to be the ETH's community's forte.

The quantity is irrelevant, the exchange rate that reaches equilibrium is what is relevant

As someone who grew up in the 90s as kid and IRC (and ICQ, and chats) I disagree.

The first time I used IRC I used mIRC. It was in 1997. It asked for my real name. I filled it in. Fast forward a few days, I get into an argument with someone, and they call me by my real name. I was flabbergasted. How do they know my name? I never knew that the real name was shared with IRC networks; I assumed it was shared with mIRC only. I had the same on ICQ, including my phone number, which was once abused to stalk me. Did I learn from this? Hell yes, I got more private and careful. And it isn't as if I already wasn't. I never gave people my hometown or last name. Heck, I met strange people who wanted to cyber on a web chat when I was 14 years old. But I never gave them my PII (oh and I found it more funny than that it got me horny as I could not take it serious). Only thing was my first name which is a common one. My mistake was to trust the software.

The reason I disagree is the following: in the 90s I did not have a webcam or camera. I had a mic but it was not connected 24/7, and I could not use it to make a phone call. I did not even have my own cellphone yet, let alone a smartphone. I did have a walkman and discman, I'll admit that, but I don't see how such devices were harmful. Nowadays teenagers have smartphones, and they willfully share personal information with the Internet; that is, with companies, with the government (as a result of that), and with strangers and family & friends alike. Because of the snowball/network effect, many of them are being on these networks (Facebook, Snapchat, etc). The papertrail / records are more permanent than ever before. And it isn't just sex-related. It is also bullying-related ie. cyberbullying, making videos of bullying and putting it on YouTube. The point is, we created a monster. The monster is called data.
Damn, this is some solid work. Seriously impressive.
In order to get to the Sun rather than just speed past it, you have to decrease your velocity dramatically.

When you're in a stable orbit, you are actually spinning around the sun at a huge pace. To gain enough velocity to leave the solar system, you have to increase that pace by an amount that is less than the pace you already have.

As a terrible analogy, it takes less energy to overtake a car that is travelling in front of you at a higher speed than it does to slow yourself to a complete stop.

I am not contesting that, I just answered to "For women, online dating just doesn't make sense".
Dating apps today are more like gambling with your time. Its mechanics is pretty same as for lottery game, so it will generate profits for the same reason all scams do with our primate brain. Monkey gives a banana now and expects 10^6 bananas later.

Last time I used Tinder they seemed to make a right move towards video chats. If I were to develop a dating app, I'd incorporate vid chat as the only way to communicate. Ain't streaming video of yourself atm -- you don't exist at all, can't be found or swiped on. Procrastination & waste of time -> 0.

Also real-time video basically renders any account validation unnecessary because all Photoshop guys/gals went to learn neural networks and how to implement DeepFake face replace.
