Intentionally, yes. I couldn't find a definitive translation that I liked. Here's another take:

"They [the Persians] are accustomed to deliberate on matters of the highest moment when warm with wine; but whatever they in this situation may determine is again proposed to them on the morrow, in their cooler moments, by the person in whose house they had before assembled. If at this time also it meet their approbation, it is executed; otherwise it is rejected. Whatever also they discuss when sober, is always a second time examined after they have been drinking."

I really just wanted to riff on the subject of involving alcohol in decision making.
Agree. This is an early version of that pitch :)
I understand your echo chamber argument but I don’t find it compelling. I think preserving freedom of expression specifically and liberty in general is more important than forcing ideas on people against their will and the foundation of our society.

The question was “do we need a new internet” the answer to which is “no.” In my opinion. I don’t care if a bunch of hateful racists are marginalized by private organizations.

The problem here is not the network, the problem is people who want to force their ideas on everyone. Luckily our technical and social systems are both resistant to such threats.
Well I can't draw anything very well, but I can see in my mind a photo-realistic image indistinguishable from what I am perceiving in real time. No matter to what degree I interrogate it, I find no discrepancies with the real world. Everything I revisit is exactly as I remember it. I can read text in my dreams. I can make arbitrary changes to whatever I visualize and project them onto the real world as if my eyes were seeing it for real.

Compare your memory of, say, song lyrics - you might misremember some of the words but that doesn't mean your memory of the lyrics aren't real, you are remembering a real and coherent set of words, not making them up as you go. When you hear that song again and you know what word is coming up next that is not your mind conning you, that is just successful recall. Likewise you probably know the melody of the song; though you might not be able to transcribe it, you would immediately notice if even a single note was off. More impressive, you can probably correctly identify a song you haven't heard in years from a fraction of a second long sample. If you show me some tiny portion of a photograph of something I've seen before, I will similarly be able to identify it instantly.

I used to think that everyone experienced the world the same way as I did. Personally, as a visual person, I found graphs to be the most intuitive way of conveying information. How could anyone not understand a graph? But my brother can't make heads or tails of them. He's an incredibly intelligent person, but he fundamentally does not process and store information visually. I've met many other people who can think in ways I can't, such as people who can think visualize objects in 4 dimensions.

If you want further evidence that thought processing is not constant across different people, consider that it is not even constant over a single lifetime. What language do you process language in? If you learn a second language, most people, myself included, eventually reach a point where you can think in that second language without using your primary language as a mediator. The brain is simultaneously incredibly powerful and incredibly plastic. Entire regions can be repurposed to function in radically different ways. All evidence points to extreme variability in how our individual minds work.
> In reality an intermediary called “payment processor” handle all CC brands in single system and they are the ones enforcing ideological punishments to merchants.

Yes, payment processors enforce the rules, but don't typically make the rules.

As I am sure you can imagine, this can result in plausible-deniability-type finger pointing ("we don't make the rules" / "we're not responsible for the rules being misapplied") when an organization is cut off.
Serious question, how is this different from what VW did? There was a lot of talk about complicit engineers vs. shady management in that discussion. Did this ever make it to production?
Svelte is more declarative. Svelte is also a compiler, which generates very efficient code for keeping the dependent parts of the DOM up-to-date when the app state changes, effectively moving the vDOM diffing cost from runtime to compile-time.
Are Snap and Dropbox really examples of what companies should do??
Ouch, what a terrible response.
I feel like the proper way would be to comment on those issues and say "hey, we offer disposable emails to our paying customers, we're not a burner email service".

Although, seeing this behavior doesn't surprise me - hey's product is built around status signaling and it's marketing is "we're cool tiny hero vs big evil giants" act with layer of better-than-thou arrogance.
I doubt it will happen. Fixing bugs is not sexy, so modern developers generally avoid it at all costs. Especially if there is a UI makeover they could be doing instead.
There has been so many times I have used archive.org to find some old information that I needed, or checked to see how a page had changed (sometimes because of a legal issue). It's been invaluable. Sometimes archive.org doesn't work for it, and it's a real shame.

With a Mighty Hand and an Outstretched Arm [pdf]
IIRC L3 is slightly slower on Zen 2, main memory as mentioned much slower.

Clock speed advantage -- Most Zen 2 CPUs don't overclock to 4.5 GHz on any core, let alone all-core. The boost numbers are reached with current firmware, but only for tiniest fractions of a second and never under any real load. Sustained single-core boost frequencies are 200-400 MHz lower than the specified boost frequency. On the other hand, Intel CPUs consistently reach their boost frequencies under load, and most CPUs can do their single-core boost as an all-core overclock under load (with much greater power consumption of course).

In practice this means that for equivalently priced parts (e.g. 3900X vs 10900K) the AMD part will have about a GHz lower clock for lightly threaded workloads, which are most workloads. With Intel settings, the Intel and AMD parts have about the same sustained clocks (3.8-4 GHz) under all-core load, but with the defaults of many motherboards the Intel part will run at 4.8-5 GHz, depending on the cooling.
This is so ridiculous. Google Maps accesses the clipboard. Try it out: copy an address and open maps.

The level of paranoia in the Valley is astounding.
Yea, agreed.. they definitely could assuming someone does something stupid and exposes keys with access to everything. But this removes the barrier of needing to have a tiny bit of technical knowledge to do it. I think pastebin post with the cloudnuke url, keys, and a stolen credit card would look pretty appetizing for bored people. I'm not saying this shouldn't exist exactly.. maybe some kind of additional identity verification would make it less scary tho.

We still have somewhat of a lead in areas like composites, exotic materials, jet engines, turbines, and aerospace, but they are eroding.

We can make good cars, though the majority of the good cars made in the US are made under the management of Japanese car companies. Tesla has some great technology and product design but on the manufacturing front they are behind the majors.
I was admiring Sutro tower on my morning walk, and realized if we tried to build Sutro tower today it could never happen. We couldn't build another bridge, tunnel, or anything.

The words aren't offensive, but the output sentences might be, so why risk it?

I appreciate the reference to the PGP word list, I didn't know about it.

One thing MadHash adds is a bit of structure in the form of <adjective> <noun> <adverb> <verb> <adjective> <noun> which should help make the phrases more memorable.

Also, each sentence covers 64 bits, whereas the PGP word list covers just 2 bits per word.
You'd know if you ever held a bar in your hands. It's not complicated.
That's a good point. I suppose in countries like the US there is already a middle ground in play: small businesses are often exempt from certain onerous regulations.
This is just an overblown yellow-peril panic, right? How does any app paste? By "accessing the user clipboards". How does the chrome omnibox do "text you copied"? By "accessing the user clipboards".
I agree in theory. Having managers who are also contributing can create an awesome level of trust on a team. In practice, the problem is the "maker's schedule" in software doesn't accommodate time for the constant interruptions of coordination. Swinging an axe is one thing, but software requires large amounts of focused time which is discongruous with management needs.

Government/warlord-avoiding money transfer like this is the core use case for Bitcoin outside of speculating on its future value. It's not for casual shopping transactions.
It only involves fees in less developed banking systems like the US. European banks transfer large amounts of euros to other banks with no fees.
Negotiate harder, and in USD.

Typically I will begin placing an order with two OTC desks at the same time, while also looking at exchange order books. I game the brokers against each other.

If it is a smaller order (5 - 6 figures) I will compare Coinbase Pro's fees with whatever my OTC desk is telling me. OTC has to be less than Coinbase Pro.

So thats how I pretty much guarantee a less than 1% fee.

$1bn = multiple OTC desks and multiple orders. The bitcoin market is much deeper than people think and gets deeper every day.

I think Intel has learned a painful lesson on resting on their Laurels. That being said, Jim Keller was there for 2 years (he resigned June 12th, so I'd bet they have some big things on the horizon, namely GPUs.
I think this is a great commentary on the current status of the economy, with a focus on the US but global implications.

This passage alone is worth some merit:

> There are only two ways to resolve a debt crisis – either default or inflate with the caveat that inflation is simply a slow-motion default. (Yes, strong real GDP growth can also extinguish debt, but let’s stipulate this avenue as closed.)
Seems feasible it was a spam check. All my sensitive data is over in a separate work apps launcher anyway.

Personally, I find lots of useful content on TikTok. There's a divorce lawyer I've actually called in person. There's a nurse who gives coronavirus tips. There's a Chinese teacher. There's an idol who did a funny hand wash dance without showing a lot of skin and who does funny things with her cats. There's a fitness guy who always has a new way to do push ups or whatever. There's a chiro with back pain tips, etc.. One coworker does dances with her daughter - so maybe it helps parent-child bonding.
Yes, I knew that the transaction value (and source, sink) was known after processing it and putting it in the blockchain, just not that it was known by the miner processing the transaction before putting it on the blockchain - I assumed when "mining" a transaction that somehow the details would be hidden.

Them being visible seems to raise interesting attacks, such as an individual being doxed and then unable to have their transaction verified/accepted.

A sibling comment suggests Monero have addressed this.

Edit: If 51% agree not to process any transactions for accounts holding >$1M worth of Btc can they steal financial value? Like a stock buyback but you pay zero to the holder and get the stock anyway.
I'm not sure I understand. If we had paying subscribers that were reading your content and we reached out to you and you didn't want anything to do with us we would certainly respect that and not bother you again.

The only way to prevent our users from reading your articles though would be to require some sort of authentication to access them. Same way you block anyone from accessing your content through any web browser or extension.
regarding india, you are confusing over hiring of engineers by consultancies like TCS. they take people from any stream of engineering (even other ones) and then train them. CS people formna fraction of it. and if you compare engineers who have CS degree in India and those who don't and yet work in TCS, you will find a lot of difference in skill. Lastly, money drives quality. from same University in India, you have CS students going to Google and to TCS. good money attracts talent. you have no incentive to improve in low paying job unless you want to switch
For almost everyone 18-40 year old, driving less is one of the healthiest decisions you can make.

A little nitpick: Motorcycling, cycling, and walking are all significantly worse than traveling by car.

If this interests you, it's possible to find a lot more interesting research by searching for "microlife" and "micromort".

I switched from Brave to Firefox recently, and I'm very happy! I perceive it as faster, and feature-wise it's pretty much equivalent. It's made some enormous performance improvements.

Firefox still has some rough issues. It doesn't always feel like a native app (e.g. form fields, toolbar, preferences), and its visual touches (e.g. the main toolbar) are sometimes heavy-handed. In other areas, such as the "omnibar" behaviour, it's still catching up to other browsers, but at least it's catching up.

Another thing I dislike is just how much tweaking I had to do to remove quirks. For example, Firefox has some really excessive animations, which fortunately can be turned off ("ui.prefersReducedMotion" in "about:config").

Firefox has some ways to go, but I'm a lot more optimistic about its future than I used to be.
> 1: as you’ve said, the quality of such completion depends on habits; if you’re just shifting to the browser, it doesn’t have the full details with which to do good completion.

i've used firefox ever since galeon bit the dust (or maybe since epiphany switched to webkit). it knows my habits. but it still suggests urls i don't want instead of just offering to switch to an open tab. (frankly, i want open tabs to match enthusiatically. i would rather switch to an open tab than open a new tab to the same site, which is redundant.)

> mostly smoke and mirrors from the founders who were able to maintain their own lifestyles using grants from the Canadian government

This describes a surprisingly high number of companies I’ve worked at in Canada. These SRED credits keep afloat so many companies that should have otherwise perished and that won’t ever go anywhere.

You can even hire SRED consultants that will help you milk those credits as much as possible (for a fee of course). You can then apply for more credits to pay off these SRED consultants fees, as I understand it... While producing little to no commercial value, and coast on these for years.
Google Maps has a clear use case for accessing the clipboard. If Tok Tok only accessed the clipboard on launch to check for a Tik Tok URL, that might be one thing, but there's no clear reason Tik Tok would need access to the clipboard literally every 3 keystrokes.
My mistake - I meant just in chip manufacturing. Definitely leading in lots and lots of other areas.
Normal apps wait until the user attempts to perform a paste action to access the clipboard, instead of accessing the clipboard every two seconds.

> Unimportant-seeming stuff like this is why Chrome crushed Firefox in the Enterprise.

This isn't why. At work I deal with two different vendors who refuse to troubleshoot any issues with their products on anything but Chrome. To this day, the issue has never been a browser compatibility issue, but we have to actually temporarily give the user a Chromium-based browser just to get a modicum of decent support these days.

Both vendors, of course, tell us we should just use Chrome because it's the only browser they support. (Even though other browsers work fine.) And unfortunately, most IT staffers end up getting directed by superiors to follow said instructions.
BTW I wonder why one might need a workstation with many less beefy cores as opposed to several more powerful cores. What kind of interactive tasks require that?

E.g. i suppose computer animation rather takes a GPU than 32-64 universal cores, and compilers are still not so massively-parallel.
Part of what makes authoritarian behavior so dangerous is that they don't need a majority to cause a lot of damage, just a very sizable group. You want to stamp it out quickly before a lot of damage is done, and "fighting fascism with the truth" generally takes time on a generational scale.

It is worth noting that the election before Hitler was made chancellor, the Nazis actually lost 14% of their seats in the Reichstag, yet they were still powerful enough to eventually come to power.

> This also leaves you with the challange to safely get the certificate to your users.

Because the hardware vendor does not own nor configure the private network, they are not able to certify to the network’s users that a particular network node is the device it’s supposed to be, and not an impersonator. Only the network administrators can do that, and so it is the network administrators that must generate the certificate and install it on the device. In this way the admins bestow a programatic declaration of trust on the network node.

The device manufacturers can only provide tools for showing that the device was not tampered with. TLS/SSL certificates are not for that purpose.

I read something once that indicated that the industrial revolution started in Europe and didn't really hit places like China as early because China had a huge amount of cheap human labor and Europe had less.

At an internal event back in February (in the before times), we had a videographer come through asking questions. She asked me "What did you learn this week?"

My response: "I learned how tall everyone is! On Zoom, everyone is the same height!"

Unfortunately, it didn't make the highlight video. :)

But the serious side of it is that if 100% of our interactions are from the chest up, we lose a ton of body language context and physical expressions. With everyone muted, you miss out on verbal cues too. We're missing layers/nuance of communication but it's hard to tell if those are 1%, 25%, 50%, or 95% of the interaction.
