Everything you say makes sense, except the last line. I dont understand my the minimum transaction fee matters -- as long as you have a middle-person (such as Apple Music or Apple News), they can charge $15/mo or whatever, and do the many-to-many disbursement in bulk, right?

I guess you are kind of right, then it would be a mix of GObject, KParts and D-BUS then.

As for COM, yes there are multiple models, in-process, external process and across the network (with DCOM).

GObject and KParts would be the in-process variant, with D-BUS for the other execution models.
ICANN has been corrupt since John Postel died in 1998. Since then it has been run by lawyers in complete secrecy with their main goal being to maximize the rents they can squeeze out of DNS. People have been begging the California Attorney General to investigate ICANN's many corruptions for two decades now, it would be a shame if ICANN is able to use this high visibility decision to avoid scrutiny of it's previous criminal decision to allow unlimited price increases on .org.

Aussie here, the self aware piss take is a great cultural tool that we do well (tim minchin as the highest form), but it's got to be used well. Too many self aware jokes in nat's videos are played for gags and used to suck all the tension out of the video. Using that tool to punctuate boring moments just highlights how boring it is to trying and find the tap whilst looking at the camera or dump a load of ingredients into a bowl. That tool is best used when bringing the elite and pretentious (self-styled picasso chef) down to the ground floor with love and highlighting a valuable revelation.

Just like Qt depends on moc.

GCC and clang are also full of language extensions.

In fact if it wasn't for the work of Google, to this day Linux would only be compilable with GCC C.

I remember C devs on Apple platforms being happy for their lambdas extensions when they were introduced.

So I never understand why everyone else is allowed to create language extensions, but when Microsoft does it is bad.
Previous thinking was that it was more time spent indoors woth central heating recirculating air and things like that but i never really bought into that idea. Doesnt really work for more temperate climates that still see lots of outdoors activity in winter, eg. Australia.

Only if you use them as a black box. What is considered l2 norm in regression theory corresponds to a Gaussian likelihood, whose log-likelihood becomes quadratic. And one typically might not have any priors (which is subtly misleading, because the "flat" prior is highly dependent on the chosen representation for the underlying degree of freedom). Note that regularizations are just log-priors.

Without an understanding of the underlying Bayesian formulation, linear regression theory might look like a vast and somewhat ad-hoc collection of separate ideas (eg: robust loss functions, and the many different kinds of regularizations), but seen in the correct light, it is easy to start with a general formulation and specialize it nicely to your problem. Working that way, you can often design a good solution for your problem without searching through handbooks for possible pre-defined methods. You can also combine multiple ideas very easily. eg: A couple of weeks ago, working from first principles I rediscovered what is called "Lavrentyev_regularization": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tikhonov_regularization#Lavren...

From the article's comments section on the Erickson and Massahi video and "stamping the discussion":

> The comments section was filled with interesting discussion (I'd say as many against as for, but I didn't count). It gave people a public sphere. The point by point dissection of the doctors' presentation by many commenters expanded understanding. Many of the commenters provided refutation and data analysis. Taking the presentation down ended the discussion.

> The rush to censor is fearful. At least the Erickson and Massahi video provided (for a brief few days) a forum where people of different viewpoints engaged each other.
Most people won't care until it's their ox that's being gored. So the plan is having non-centralized alternatives ready to spread. Dark marketplaces are an excellent example. Sure, many have been taken down, but the demand is still there.
Extraordinary Conics: The Most Difficult Math Problem I Ever Solved
There’s a good moral argument about dividing capital into land and other assets.

But I suspect that from an economical efficiency perspective that division is less interesting than between revenue and assets.
The same argument can be made for gambling and using cocaine. That’s fine, maybe, but if financial slavery is the known output then don’t cry about how expensive it is.

This thesis has no null hypothesis. The same arguments could be applied to about anyone who's perceving any emotions from other people, in any context, aside from listening to a person narrate his emotions out loud. See, none of us have any emptathy or eye for emotion, we're all just projecting something of our own. And if you, or anyone, has any counter-argument against this clearly absurd statement, the same counter-argument could equally rebute yours as well.

Chastising a man that’s complaining about our loss of freedom of speech? The irony! Censor him!

He’s pointing out a disturbing trend, if you are pro democracy and pro freedom of speech. What’s wrong with that?

Not everyone believes in democracy / freedom of speech, but these two things go hand in hand.

You can’t have democracy without freedom of speech and vice versa.

The disturbing trend towards censorship is the first step towards totalitarianist dictatorships. A lot of people will argue this state is “inevitable” but resisting the urge towards tyranny is an ongoing fight.

To elaborate on the point: When doing probabilistic modeling, whether one realizes or not, there typically is an underlying Bayesian formulation which explains what one is doing. Now, that might be well-aligned with the problem of interest (or not), and being clear on the fundamentals helps understand that, and also to compose distinct ideas which make sense together in the context of the problem. eg: see my comments below, in the context of linear regression from a Bayesian perspective.

Also, while "scaling" with data is a very hip thing these days, for most problems of interest it is very difficult/expensive to get lots of data (or afford compute). Further, humans often have very useful domain-models which are worth encoding into the structure of the model. This also helps nicely mix together a conventional "software" modeling with probabilistic aspects (for those who weren't aware, this flows towards what is called "probabilistic programming", and recent developments have made significant progress towards methods which work for an "intermediate" dimensionality, if not "large" dimensionality).

I didn't realize until reading the comments in this thread that some people hawking crypto are now using the term 'Web 3.0'? That's utterly repugnant.
It is unfortunate that this is getting downvoted, but I feel that it is true to at least have an open mind on the number. So, I'd like to give a bit of my own personal context here. I moved to Saigon 4 years ago and I follow the VN news very closely. I've traveled 15k+ km through the whole country (along with Laos and Cambodia), by motorbike. I have been in the largest cities and explored some of the most remote areas.

The thing you need you realize here is that this is the first time the govt, north to south, has really truly cared for its citizens. It sounds harsh, but think about it. No expense spared. 60,000+ people put up in quarantine. Borders locked. Full public reporting of the contact tracing. Locking down entire towns (some I've even been to myself in the not too distant past). The response has been swift and very very nationalizing.

Unlike watching US people split down the middle and fighting about everything, Vietnamese people are quite proud of their country. There is a lot of 'saving or displaying face' type news and actions. At one point, the country went two weeks without a new case... daily proud updates in all the news about this... until some girl flew in from out of town with it and super spread it to a whole bunch more people. After that, things got even more serious.

The point is... the govt is very proud of their track record of zero deaths. Reuters went in and tried to get the govt. to talk about their claims and nobody would speak [0]. If you are so proud of your number, why not tell the world all about how you got there?

This is a govt that hasn't been exactly known for being the most umm, how do I say it nicely ... clean? By the way, one of the heads of their cdc got caught profiteering off test kits.

So, while I'd love to believe that all the sudden the vn govt cares about its citizens more than anything else and that their numbers are magically amazing because of so much hard work. I just find it really hard to believe that a country that borders China and has a litany of social issues, could be so perfect.

I mean, how many millions of pigs did they cull from swine flu? It wasn't like they were able to do nearly as well controlling that one and it wasn't even human!

Oh and one more thing... this won't last. Social distancing is easing in the country. People are going out in masses over the weekend because it is Liberation day. The timing couldn't have been worse. Just look at some of the images in this FB group [1]. Da Lat is a very small mountain town, that is tens of thousands of people. Mostly kids... which means they will go home to their parents... =( This is Vietnam's Florida beaches event...

Local authority is still centralized wrt. a local problem :).

It's always nice to have options by being able to deal with multiple people... except when a given issue becomes a tragedy of the commons or some other kind of coordination problem, at which point you really want to have a single superior authority above the ones you were dealing with. This applies recursively. So you want to have one city authority, but many cities; one county authority, but many counties; one state authority, but many states; one country authority, but many countries...

Have you tried to look up definitions for some of them? I tried to figure out what a "hasnamuss" is, and about halfway through https://www.doremishock.com/beelzebub/hasnamussfieldguide.ht... found myself overcome with the urge to sneeze. The tick marks had gotten up my nose, as I'm sure you'll agree is a very present danger given their swarming multiplication throughout the text. But, having got past them, I found they'd done me a sort of mercy in distracting from the vast swamp of sheer nonsense into which I might otherwise have fallen.

It appears from https://gnosticteachings.org/books-by-samael-aun-weor/the-el..., too, that: "It is necessary to know that the Kundabuffer Organ is the negative development of the fire." That's something I am certainly glad now to know! It makes the rest of it seem so much simpler.

(Leaving aside sarcasm for a moment, "the negative development of the fire" seems like just the sort of thing a Quaker might describe as a perversion of the Inner Light, or a Catholic might regard as akin to what would become of humans absent the Holy Spirit indwelling. I'm sure someone conversant with the inner mysteries of Gurdjieff's particular flavor of syncretistic guff would consider both of these analogies to be shocking misapprehensions of the true nature of whatever it is supposed to be. But I'd be astonished to find such a person able to usefully explain what it is supposed to be.)
a16z is "all about" spending other people's money.

The "time to build" nonsense was about spending taxpayer's money. That is, telling the American government how to spend it.

Consider that a16z and its clients probably do not pay much taxes. Certainly they pay less than people who cannot afford the same level of profesional services required to reduce their tax burden to the same extent.

If America builds infrastructure and better educational systems, a16z and their clients will benefit, along with the folks who actually paid for it. Whether those benefits would be disproportional in favor of a16z and its clients is left as a question for the reader.
