A new-style peer to peer development platform CODE Chain
Hi everyone, I’m L. I can be no one or anyone. I want to build a new-style peer to peer development platform CODE Chain, so that the code we submit can run and share procedures directly in a decentralized environment without any company or individual as intermediaries.

L will practice the ideals of Satoshi Nakamoto, from the construction of the CODE chain to its functions and application development, and the achievement of which will be shared by all of you.

After the CODE Chain is officially launched, the income generated by our code will be automatically assigned to all code contributors.

Build a new Internet，by every L
Thousands or millions of folks do drugs of different sorts - opiates, alcohol, pot, LSD, cocaine, and so on, both legally and illegally - without doing those things. Just like someone can take prescriptions or drink alcohol safely, a person can do illegal drugs safely. Sitter for the kids, no driving, and so on.

Want to reduce driving under the influence? Have stiff penalties while making sure there is public transportation for all so that it can realistically be avoided.

Folks partake in domestic violence without substances. It should be punished and I don't think it matters if a substance was involved or not. Abuse is abuse and substances do not mean abuse. Sometimes, they are a bonding thing (MDMA especially).

Agression really depends. Teenagers can be quite aggressive. I can be quite aggressive depending on my hormones. A testosterone glitch can make folks aggressive. And so on. It really more depends on what the outcome of "aggression" is. Did you commit assault while aggressive? Charge for assault. Or whatever. If it just makes you an asshole, well. Don't be surprised if folks spend less time with you. Or maybe you instead feed that aggression into basketball or other sports so it doesn't matter at all.

The entire point is that drugs aren't necessarily dangerous beyond whatever physical dangers they do to the user. We can use the existing laws to punish things like assault.
Because cities make a lot of things much better and easier.

There are definately downsides, but they can be solved. We have systems to collect and clean waste so that is no longer a problem. When cars can be mostly eliminated and the ones that are left will be autonomus, that’s the traffic and air pollution problem mostly solved.

Then we can also have more of untouched land for wildlife and our general pleasure.
Designer here, mostly in the same boat. Begin small moves to have your data in other, non Apple sources. Maybe put calendars in Google or Outlook, for example. Put Notes entries in Markdown files (there’s apps for that). I don’t know the extent of your hurdles, but I feel the same and started small migrations.
BugMeNot only works for low-profile websites. Anything huge like instagram has protections against sharing accounts. (i.e: they'll block your account until you verify your phone number, friends, etc).
This is an important issue as illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing is a global issue. This recent article from the UK on the subject:

A blockchain solution could be a really useful application of this technology. It finally feels like something more worthwhile and tangible than simply wealth creation through mining or trading.
There may be a careful analysis of the effect of a $15 minimum wage on the restaurant industry in New York but this isn’t it. It doesn’t mention whether entry of low skilled workers into the industry decreased, the effect of the change on hours worked, substitution away from labour or decreases in non-pecuniary compensation.

It could be that every single one of these points to the minimum wage hike having small to non-existent effects but the article reads like a brief, not an analysis.

Compared to the Seattle minimum wage study. They had an objective study set up and when they didn’t like the results they got some political hacks to re-analyze the data and release their results beforehand.

http://www.seattleweekly.com/news/seattle-is-getting-an-obje...

> Two weeks. Two studies on minimum wage. Two very different results.

> Last week, a report out of the University of California—Berkeley found “Seattle’s minimum wage ordinance has raised wages for low-paid workers, without negatively affecting employment,” in the words of the Mayor’s Office. That report, produced by the Center on Wage and Employment Dynamics at Berkeley, was picked up far and wide as proof that the doomsday scenarios predicted by skeptics of the plan were failing to materialize.

> And while another study that came out Monday from researchers at the University of Washington doesn’t exactly spell doomsday either, it wasn’t exactly rosy. “UW study finds Seattle’s minimum wage is costing jobs,” read the Seattle Times headline Monday morning. The study found that while wages for low-earners rose by 3 percent since the law went into effect, hours for those workers dropped by 9 percent. The average worker making less than $19 an hour in Seattle has seen a total loss of $125 a month since the law went into effect.

> business owners ... say the extra money comes with an unforeseen cost: higher good prices, fewer working hours and layoffs.

> “Many people working in the restaurant industry wanted to work overtime hours, but due to the increase, many restaurants have cut back or totally eliminated any overtime work,” Andrew Riggie, executive director of the New York City Hospitality Alliance, told Fox News. “There’s only so much consumers are willing to pay for a burger or a bowl of pasta.”

> Roughly 77 percent of NYC restaurants have slashed employee hours. Thirty-six percent said they had to layoff employees and 90 percent had to increase prices following the minimum wage hike, according to a NYC Hospitality Alliance survey taken just one month after the bill took effect.

Kind of a shit weapon if you have no idea what you are hitting with it innit.
> As it writes in the article they have tip credit but the employer would still have to cough that 15 bucks if they didn't make enough in tips.

If you have to tell your employer to cough up the remainder, you're going to suddenly find yourself getting scheduled only an hour or two a week, if at all.
On the contrary, build2 is a language-agnostic, general-purpose build system. There is the bash module[1], for example. And now that we have support for dynamically buildable/loadable build system modules, we can develop support for more languages, code generators, etc., without bundling it with the build system core. I myself am itching to take a stab at Rust. Hopefully will find time after the release.

>ports are shaped to work with the back pressure provided by a working cat.

This is a 100% urban legend BS myth.

There's a partial exception for two-strokes where if you tune the system right you get a resonance wave that lets you pack a little more mixture in on the intake/exhaust stroke. Literally no 4-stroke ICE benefits from back-pressure in any way. It's just that sometimes the things done to reduce back-pressure (small exhaust pipes being the primary one) seem like they would increase it and vice-versa hence the urban legend.

Edit: Who the heck is downvoting this? This is how ICEs work. Google it if you don't believe me.

This conjecture sounds wrong to me. 3D stacking and chiplets are complementary; going only 3D has thermal and cost issues, so it makes sense to combine both. One shouldn't replace the other any time soon.
If you don't need to drive why would you buy a driverless car?

I don’t anticipate many people will ever buy a driverless car.

The whole concept of buying a car is kind of ridiculous. You pay for it then you continue paying for registration, insurance, maintenance, park, etc all while it sits idle 90% of the time.

Driverless cars allow you to be picked up at your front door and dropped off exactly at the spot wherever and whenever you want for a low fee per trip. And we’ll need about 1/10 the number of cars that we have today.
Well it's certainly true outside the limited ODD of autopilot, that much seems undeniable. (?)
I don’t think high minimum wages really hurt employment as much as small/family business ownership rates since this just increases the startup capital and operating cost needed to run a business. So for some cities the trade off is probably worth it, but this is also why you see the same chains all over and a lot of unique/niche stores dying out.
The bill is for the product. The tip is for the service.
That's a fair point, but I don't think it's ridiculous to choose the last 20 years as a discussion point.
Yeah I think this does happen informally, like over lunch as someone else mentioned. Was just wondering if anyone did it in a more "formal" way, as you would with a manager.

>If an existing session has the same ID as the new number, WireGuard asks RDRAND for another "random" number, checks it for uniqueness, and so on. Since RDRAND on my system—and any non-microcode-updated Ryzen 3000 system—always returned 0xFFFFFFFF no matter what, that means infinite loop.

I'm pretty surprised that so much software seems to rely on external (be it from the CPU, or the OS) random number generation directly instead of simply using a software PRNG and seeding it with external sources (and maybe additional creative sources if desired). That seems like a way more predictable system to me, in the sense that at least you get guaranteed uniformly distributed numbers, even if the external seeds are not uniformly distributed at all.

The AI part of autonomous driving could have easily been handled by creating a network of roads (that is, converting existing roads) that has the appropriate markings and that is easy navigable by machines.

Good luck. I temporarily disabled my Instagram account and can’t recover it. The process is supposed to be just login again, but it hangs because I had two factor Authentication enabled. My account is now in a limbo. There is no proper support channel for this problem. And the form they provid for help on the app just give an “invalid parameters” when trying to submit, but the funny part is it’s hidden behind the iPhone X notch, only found the error because I took a screenshot. Instagram always been like this? or is this sign of Facebook tighter grip on it?

Wow that’s quite the bug. I’m surprised systemd uses RDRAND since I remember a big scare related to unauditable RNGs and government backdoors around the time that RDRAND and RDSEED came into existence. The thing is, they’re technically auditable. You just need an SEM and an astounding amount of time to reverse engineer a core to the point that you can identify and understand the RNG circuitry, beginning to end.

> that does not incentivise good service as much

I don't mean this in a bad way, but are you american? It does seem a very US viewpoint that goodwill etc. don't really exist (or matter? something else?), and that people need concrete incentives to treat others decently.

Sure money's an motivator but perhaps a bigger one is to have a client treat you with decency. Sure money helps but to have a client just make you feel OK instead of crap, that would matter a lot more to most people. A big tip wouldn't negate bad attitude, even if it got staff to pretend to give a damn about you.

The comments on these types of articles always hurt my brain. Blaming minimum wage increases for McDonald's, Walmart, pretty much everybody bringing in automated tellers for instance.

I'm always bemused by the arguments against minimum wages, they almost always boil down to "My business can't survive unless my employees are living in poverty." which, in reality for a lot of businesses, is "I won't be as profitable if I have to pay a living wage".

If people really believed this, there would be staged minimum wages: Walmart pays $25 minimum while small, struggling restaurants pay $15.
Duck keeps improving since I ditched GSearch. Duck feels more like the old Google, the one I used for almost 20 years, the authoritative search engine.

Now when I hit a GSearch SERP (when in Chrome for a moment testing something), it feels like spam, and I close it faster than a Pinterest tab.
I think some combinations of items 6 and 9 are often missing from projects where there’s a quick rush to view issues and bug reports as nuisance instead of viewing them as a lifeline of critical feedback the project needs for survival.

I’ve seen it so many times where open source projects have critical bugs, but the existing contributors rush to play the false defense along the lines of “pay us if you want this fixed,” while prioritizing new features or projects out of intellectual curiosity instead.

Obviously no contributor in an open source project _has to_ do anything. But at some level if you’re working on the project because you care about the project instead of burning the commons in a land grab for satisfying personal projects, then taking priority from reported issues and even thanking people for pointing out urgent bugs whose fixes should supercede the fun features of some planned release has to become the expected default.

What Is Oracle BICS?
He didn't buy his entire infrastructure/ecosystem last week.

He almost certainly accumulated a fair number of Apple devices and then had chosen to upgrade them all to Catalina/iOS 13 and then encountered problems. These problems could have been avoided by not immediately upgrading all devices the latest software release. Instead he could have opted to roll out upgrades devices by device thus limiting the scope of any problems.

> You did say that, but you meant directionality — otherwise it would be completely unclear what your initial comment wanted to say, because it seems to specifically have objected to my assertion that no directed changes of the germ line exist.

No, I did not mean directionality. I meant what I said, and was very explicit about it. In my first post I quoted the exact bit of your comment I was replying to, which went like this: "So far there’s no known mechanism for systematic, guided DNA changes, and no good reason to assume that such mechanisms exist (on the contrary)." I wasn't even sure if there would be disagreement between us when I originally replied to that, because I'm not sure how broad the definitions you're using for "systematic" and "guided" are. I could see arguing that evolution changing the variability of a subset of the genome is "guided" in some sense, as it can "guide" the process towards more changes in a particular subsystem, but I could also see not arguing that since it lacks direction. Language is mushy. I was trying to qualify your statement, and I posed questions and made statements of my own to that end, but I wasn't sure if my positions were in conflict with yours until you replied. Now I think our positions probably weren't in conflict, but you made assumptions about what I meant to convey based on the larger context of your own post rather than the actual content of mine.

Because technical writing is about structured authoring (e.g. using specialized content items like step-by-step guides, FAQs or Quizzes) and I follow this metaphor, avoiding excessive formatting options and concentrating on things that matter.
I suppose I could have been fairer. HTML/CSS/Javascript does not grow in a controlled way and the standardisation tends to be reactive rather than proactive.

Most of the components that aren't presenting data to the user are quite well designed. That being said, the internet is very much a sum of parts and is more reminiscent of a naturally forming compost heap than of anything is planned out. And the TCP protocol is a very interesting study from a design perspective and an unusual example in my book of excellent engineering; middling design. The original protocol was not good enough (eg, congestion collapse) but its evolution was quite something.
That's called trains.

It's not the halting problem. You can track worst-case computation complexity in the type system just as you do effects (why don't you jump about the halting problem when you need to "decide" if some effect will occur?). You can Google for it -- there are about a thousand papers on it. Just to give you an intuitive feel, think of a type system that limits the counter in loops. You can also look up the concept of "gas" in total languages. Something similar is also used in some blockchain languages.

You can even track space complexity in the type system.

Beware, pitfalls.

* Make governance explicit: Mostly backfires.

* Have and enforce a code of conduct: Mostly backfires.

All the recent dramas were entirely caused by having explicit governance and code of conduct bylaws, which would not have happened (and didn't happen) without these before. It only encourages public fights over these.
They've been selling it for years, I think since 2016. They've delivered it so far to nobody.
I think the approach of mutating each property independently is an excellent approach and I'm glad to see it working at scale. It's just like regular CRUD except that instead of mutating the whole resource, you just mutate one property at a time - And if two users edit the same atomic property at the exact same time, it doesn't really matter who's edit arrives last because there is no absolute right answer so long as both users can observe the same outcome.

I also did some work in that area several years ago which I refined over time into a sample app and a set of libraries: https://github.com/SocketCluster/ag-crud-sample#ag-crud-samp...
