Enterprises are just moving away from their private blockchain to public blockchains, pretty much just this year, following Ernst & Young's Baseline framework.

Outside of the private sector, the regulatory frameworks specifically for blockchain technology have only begun to been ratified over the last 18 months, with the key market under the US Federal Government just getting providing clarity to financial institutions last week, at the Office of the Comptroller.

The metric you are referring to is a misattributed S-Curve of adoption that has condensed for a few select technologies over the last century.

Bitcoin is not the primary area of development for industry use of blockchains. There are various virtual machine technologies proliferating that bitcoin does not feature.

They sat for mocks.
The Lua crowd includes kids learning to code because they want mods in Minecraft and other games. Sometimes I see Lua suggested a a first language over JavaScript because it's much smaller and has less warts (plenty of warts exist though). Can you even use V8/SpiderMonkey in the same way as LuaJIT?

Anyone encountered issues running a docker-compose stack of 5+ containers mostly RoRails apps incl. Postgres on Mac Catalina?

Most of the issues seem to be with Postgres DB connections, but it makes starting up our backend painfully slow...
That’s not how strict liability works.

Strict liability means even if they do all of those things they are still liable.
I don't know why I wrote 'biplane' above. The Southern Cross was of course a monoplane.

To me, games like Factorio (and other programming games like Satisfactory, Human Resource Machine, and many of the Zacktronics games), mimic the fast edit-compile-debug loop and solution search that you get when you have minimized a problem to a core algorithm/data structure or some OOP design you are trying to refine.

They take away all of the boilerplate/dependency/platform busywork that you might need to do to actually ship something.
JVM bytecode can also be compiled from multiple languages:

WASM needs to move beyond MVP state and get first-class support for DOM APIs in the browser and some kind of first-class OS-agnostic APIs for outside the browser.

Until then I will be stuck with Java and J2cl/Closure (https://github.com/google/j2cl).

I grew up in Manhattan in the 1970s. There was only one borough that mattered. Nobody gave a fuck about any of the others.

I suppose it's different now, parts of Brooklyn might matter.

What’s with the people in the twitter thread taking this as an insult to PHP itself, or a sign that PHP will no longer run on macOS? It’s clearly neither.
I've found that writing a unit test to verify it works at all is sometimes loads easier than manually running the app or whatever.

At that point, just leave the test and check it in.

I have spent years in the extraordinarily interesting world of blockchain and have been rewarded extremely well in terms of personal growth, education, and financial rewards.
Yep, the only places that I ever really need a buffer are train stops, power facilities, and times when you can't use a byproduct just yet (more-complicated refineries before you get your circuits tuned just right).

One thing I just realized this week is that a power generation buffer needs to alert me on the very first swing of an inserter from a buffer chest. If the coal/solid fuel line isn't completely compressed, that means the doomsday clock has started ticking.
I appreciate this, thanks. Answering these kinds of questions can feel like unwrapping bandages in front of strangers. So it's good to hear that it helped somebody out. Thank you for your empathy.
Not the answer to your question, but this is why I think Quebec uses accented capitals more than France. In Canadian French layout, there is a key for à. Simply using Shift+à gives you À.
That's only fair in an environment where education is not a scarce good. But college education needs some way to artificially pick winners because the schools are underfunded and then economy is classist.
Lua versioning is a really weird thing I'll give you that. I find class-based OOP a point against a language rather than for it, but there's already a huge chunk of languages that compile to/add types to Lua (https://github.com/hengestone/Lua-languages), with Wu and Amulet looking intriguing to me.
That'll enthusiasm will last right up until the few picoseconds before you realised you've been royally rolled.

What makes you think you're immune to the Arbitrary Hand of Amazon?
No data, but I don't think you generally need to type all that fast for coding. You just need to type well enough that it's not an impedement or a distraction. It's ok to look for some of the symbols you don't use that often.

Fast typing helps a smidge with the easiest problems on topcoder. Of course, that's after you commit to single character variable names.
I dislike how there are so many theories and it's heavily encouraged to modify your own dictionary. Makes it somewhat more difficult to learn.
It helps that much of their route at the start was subjugated under the prosperity sphere.
You have to click on the vertical ... button. It's a little hard to find on desktop, but on mobile it's very clear.
Oh Gawd, I suppose that quip's topical.

It seems like at this point, there's no way to distinguish the coherent comments of a bot from a person. The bot could have written sentence X for just about any X. It's just that bots can't sustain stream of logical claims that are consistent with each other.

So it's easier to demonstrate a paragraph is done by a bot, ie, that a paragraph makes no sense, than it is demonstrate that paragraph is not done by a bot - since both humans and bots write some sensible paragraphs.

Still, I'm egotistic enough to think a bot couldn't come up with that argument though I could be wrong.
Speech to text is interesting, though the 360 words / minute is already quite a lot faster than typical speech. Though probably slower than the text to speech blind users use (450 words/minute?).

I wonder if there's a blind stenographer that can really fly, but just isn't well known.

I bet there are some unknown talents in the closed captioning space.

Unrelated, I've seen some interesting typos there, especially with strong English accents like Scottish or Irish. And you can see them improving as episodes progress. The "RedRock" Irish soap is a good example. They get much better over time.
Doesn't that make next year even worse, as we'll have 1.5x applicants for the same seats?

>If you now have to buy a car to live in the city will you still stay?

Interesting take. It seems like a domino too far, but it could conceivably contribute to a collapse that was already going to happen.
Attention is power, even in the context of software development. Social media is where attention is abundant if you know how to look for it.

Devs should get better at communicating and self-marketing. It does not need to be an over the top marketing and self branding, in fact you shouldn't do that.

Recruiters, supervisors, founders, and everyone who need devs (and any other kind of specialists) need to up their bullshit filter game.
That's great four months a year, but what about the rest of the year? No one can eat outdoors in 20F, or bike to work in the snow and ice. SF does have the advantage of year round biking weather.

You can click the ... menu, then "hide ad". It will show you fewer similar ads in the future.

An unpersonalized IG ad experience would be teenage women's clothing and Netflix branding (assuming you're in the US). You probably don't want that either.

When did I defend Trump? All I've stated is that Covid isn't his fault. What seems exhausting to me is spinning every single thing that happens to somehow be the fault of one single person. He's not a monarch, not a dictator, and his power, by design, is quite limited. Why not get rid of governors, state and city governments, Congress, heads of CDC and FDA, postmasters general, school boards, hospital admins, etc. if they have no agency -- if all their decisions are inconsequential? You've already stated Trump is 100% to blame... therefore, everyone else must be at zero. Stop wasting mental energy on how to blame Trump (or inventing fairy tales where some alternative president would have cured it) and direct it towards something productive.
Why? High schoolers can read books and video chat.
While I was teaching myself electronics over the course of a year or so, I would listen to the classic rock station as background music. After about a month of listening I noticed I could tell which song would come next. Their playlist was about 48 hours. There are only so many classic rock hits after all. When Do It Again would play, it felt like that was the start of the playlist.
That would be super interesting, but I think moderation would be really important to cultivate a real discourse instead of just endless flame wars...

Maybe a good place to start would be some kind of annotation / wiki overlay for the text of the bills that the legislature publishes.

95% of your list is applicable to any other project you might venture on. This is absolutely nothing specific to static site generators. In fact, if you started a WordPress site from scratch, you'll probably be adding a ton more things to that list.

I run a couple of Jekyll sites, with Directus as my headless CMS, and my experience is pretty much the same as writing posts for a Wordpress site. I wrote the post in a simple editor, save it, and manually trigger a deployment on Netlify. Even the deployment can be automated if I were to set up some simple build hooks.

There are a view downsides and limitations, but nothing I can't live without. And it actually helps me keep everything as simple as possible.

Isn't that what IRC was supposed to be? But as others have pointed out, it's trivial to roll your own chat software and monetize it. You can't do that with a decentralized standard.

The problem is that the risk is borne by honest business owners and honest customers. Scammers exist in both directions and the scammers typically bear none of the risk.

Regarding businesses specially, someone operating one or more scam online retailers is actively trying to suppress word of mouth. They also don't care about repeat business because their profit margin is so high. Their process may even specifically include periodically cutting ties with their previous name, websites, vendor accounts etc when victim ill becomes unmanageable.
That’s FUSE which is in userspace. The kernel driver is read-only. I believe it never progressed past that due to licensing issues.
Http.rb Is Great (2018)
Can you open source this version?
I’ve recently learned about Spider Solitaire, after getting Clubhouse Games for Switch.

That game seems highly unsolvable most of the time, and have thought many times how it’s be great if there were a version that generated only solvable seeds, as you can sink a lot of time into that game for it to only be unsolvable.

For example, I finally beat it after probably over 150 plays.

Then again, it’s also easy to get yourself in a jam from your own decisions, and I probably am just bad at it.
What about in kelvin!
Yes, let’s let an ad company track our spending habits. I don’t see any problem here.
I’m curious at how it a actually possible to have partial autocompletion and still have some static analysis tools work with syntax errors in badly formed ASTs. Even visual studio, an IDE with massive resources behind it can’t accomplish this with c++. Is this even possible? At face value it seems possible but I’m surprised that more IDEs don’t have this support.
What was the original intent of bundling php + ruby on rails in a workstation OS?

I’ve also recently used https://docs.opencv.org/trunk/d0/d2e/classcv_1_1CommandLineP... from OpenCV. It’s useful when you’re already using OpenCV and don’t want to bring in another dependency.
My midwestern city is out of bikes too, but it isn't because of a surge in demand. It's because all the bikes were made in China, and supply has slowed to a trickle.
It's not really for that. It can make Python packages for PyPI and manage deps and that's it. Building final deployment packages like debs are out of scope.
Clearly there’s demand for an Intel product with these features absent from the platform controller hub.

I acknowledge that hardware products take years to develop, and they already have a lot on their plate.

Perhaps Intel doesn’t care about consumer whims, but clearly there’s demand from companies like Google.

I’m just generally surprised at the lack of public-facing responses from Intel’s leadership around this and other security issues facing their platform. It all reads like lawyers trying to minimize their liability.

They’re one of the most important technology platforms today. Everything besides cellphones runs on Intel.

Despite actually being a monopoly or duopoly, they don’t have to be so stodgy. I want to love them for their profound impact these past few decades, but it’s hard when it feels like they don’t listen to their customers.
You mean there are no places where managers tell their teams the scope and deadlines and then tell the team to go play "agile"?
It may be useful, but the generic case of transfering money is generally (but not always) not an example of a low trust situation.

Paying off ransomware software is.

And we can see this in the fact that buying goods and services from traditional (not darknet) vendors is still very hard with bitcoin. Paying randsomware in bitcoin is standard.
But no REPL for real-time probing or testing, so you’re in a big-guess-recompile-deploy cycle, correct?

Once I launched my first rocket, I figured I’d try to aim for 100 Science Per Minute (spm) to see what the fuss was about in the community. That turned out to be a big and rewarding challenge. I still had a spaghetti base by the end, but it was far more orderly than what I had started with. It also forced me to learn game concepts deeper to hit that scale. Nuclear power production and coherent train system design each took me some time, but the result was well worth it.
I work broadly in financial markets. BC was talked into the ground thankfully ending 2018. Haven't heard squat since.

I was genuinely interested particularly on aspects of dis-intermediating custody banks. But it doesn't take long to realize a few things about bonafide public BC:

- the random guy adding his/her node to the network will need to catch up on serious data amounts or just take somebody's snapshot "as word". Can you boot strap your new node with a snapshot. Should you? Well, what are you going to do about getting all the back data in?

- nobody is going to put private financial/trading/whatever details plain text on a block. so it'll have to be encrypted. so what are we really verifying? you're verifying what my copy of PGP produces? whatever gibberish I post to the block? I don't want to disclose from/who/when/amount/shares/bank-info/exchange/stock symbols .... nothing ... but regulators may need to see data un-encrypted ... so now what? Send regulators data the old way? While I do CAPEX the new way? C'mon.

- The data has to be represented somehow. Since BC brings nothing to that party ... BC will wrap Swift, FIX, Omego, or by exchange or by regulator reporting format ... so BC is a crap load of work to fix nothing about the domain. And even that is a simplification. There's lots of little gotach's in data reporting between all the counter parties.

- throughput is an issue on BC

- just the idea that any joe can add a box to the network and start looking at financial data ... it's a non-starter ... although we can argue you can get some visibility from exchange data ... but traders might use BC to help settle and that may require a heck of a lot more detail that what NASDAQ provides

- BC isn't a currency. A currency has to do certain things including being universally accepted in the country, have near constant value day to day. Whatever that is BC doesn't do it.

- Another thing I find jaw dropping about the BC mentality is the insistence the unshakable foundation of the blockchain insofar as its non-deprecation and on the computers to apply the same logic and/or verification and xfer fees without human interference or bias. To date BC is pre-pre-pre-neophyte status. You start bringing in serious economic pressures, 1-offs, crashes, bailouts, disagreements and I'll bet some or all that code will fail/falter in human hands leading to code changes leading to forking. Today's money system didn't start this way. It was beat into today's shapes through problems, mistakes, and here and there some good ideas. So will BC. I seriously doubt the immutability of the rules governing blocks.

Now you can back off public, decentralized ... into private block chains with shared or not shared keys and the like ... or just point-to-point block chains between trusted and distinguished entities ... but very quickly ... so what are we really doing here?

BC is used it seems to me for speculation, buying small potato things like coffee or for the coolness factor or hiding. I'm not seeing serious industrial use cases.

Now, there are two areas that I might see BC useful for:

- things like ownership, proof of (say houses)
- maybe voting

If you choose to purchase from sketchy merchants, you have all sorts of risks regardless of what payment infrastructure is used.

As a business that wants to last a long time and attract customers, reputation is everything. People buy from large, established companies for this reason. Crypto payments help all sellers by eliminating an enormous problem of scam buyers using stolen credit cards.
I watched a video recently that touched on this subject when talking about the TV show House. If you read the script for a regular House episode, there's no conclusion to be had besides House being an insufferable, racist prick. Instead, Hugh Laurie delivers the obviously racist lines so sarcastically that it makes them work very well (which is obviously what the writers were going on).
A small portion of people whose native writing system are based from Latin alphabet believes that case conversion is an essential must have feature and having that feature in locale library help the localization.

But if you consider the other writing systems, having case conversion feature in locale library actually harm the localization effort. It's not easy to make it no-op. The implementation of locale library are generally poor quality because the implementer has no idea how other languages works.

Another example is singular/plural support. It just burden the localization effort because for languages which no such concept, the localization work must ensure that presence of such library doesn't harm their language.

Some people is under the delusion that locale library must have more features to support his native languages not so important traits. While what really necessary is just forget about supporting minor language traits that are not universal among the languages.

The text should be considered binary blob and most program should pass it left to right without modification.

NYC being a large city, the story is slightly more nuanced than that. There has definitely been a large exodus from Manhattan and Brooklyn, but less so from Queens (where I live, and which was much less tech-centric even before the pandemic).

That being said, I do agree that the genie probably can't be put back in the bottle and there will be an at least semi-permanent shift of people away from cities.

Docker is slow on Mac. Especially with volumes. This is one drawback to dev'ing everything with Docker locally. If you need to coordinate lots of services across containers to establish the local environment though this is probably something you can live with compared to the alternatives.

Edit: Some tuning options also exist - https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/osxfs-caching/

I would beg to differ. 3 season biking is easy as pie, and 4 season with just a little effort. there was only maybe a month out of the year I couldn't bike to work in Minneapolis or Chicago, all it takes is infrastructure and the right gear.
If it is a non criminal situation, you can generally use traditional methods to establish trust, such as using courts to sue people who rip you off, or using escrow agents, etc.

The world has had thousands of years to come up with solutions to trust problems during transactions. They are solutions that work. They work for criminals too, but its a lot harder to use them, especially over the internet, because everyone providing the services goes to jail if they are transacting with criminals.
https://rclone.org/ works great. Do we need Google to write a client?
But that seems to defeat the purpose if typing a single character maps to a chord. I really don't understand how chording could be used to make programming faster given how you have things like someLongVariableName, and especially since good editors already provide excellent support for things like templates.
