This article should be flagged. This website seems to be affiliated with Utopia P2P. The title is pure clickbait. Original Bloomberg article mentions nothing about Utopia P2P. I'm skeptical of the software claims. They don't release the code nor they give details on how it works. Honestly it looks like they bundled Tor with some other software together into a nice GUI. Nothing special.

Presumably that is because war is bad and sex is not bad?
Callback hell and the inability to debug nested function calls without placing breakpoints when replacing loops doesn't sound super exciting either.
Haha, that'd be even better for sure.
> I hope others see that our markets are designed. They are human artifacts. They are not natural laws to be accepted as-is.

“Markets” are not the same thing as “the market”. Markets are human artifacts; the market is an emergent behavior. It’s governed by laws beyond our control as surely as the behavior of materials are governed by thermodynamics.

If the behavior of your markets fails to match the reality of the market, the best you can hope for is to only introduce a small amount of inefficiency. Of course, utopians who ignore the real nature of the market usually find themselves lethally encumbered by deadweight loss.

> your goal is to allow companies to be judged on their own merits, instead of someone else's.

What is this supposed to mean? Why would a company’s subjective evaluation of themselves be a better basis for market valuation than the evaluation of the people who actually buy and sell interest in that company?

To buy new phones!

More seriously, as more 5G is deployed it should speed up. Also I believe 5G allows more phones to use a single tower at once which should make the carriers job easier. Especially at very busy places like festivals and sporting events.
> In the functional example, where does Person store the fName and lName variables? Is there an intrinsic/hidden 'this' pointer? If functions persist data, are they really classified as functions anymore?

There is no intrinsic "this", the code as presented is using a closure. Closures are typically considered a standard part of functional programming.
> Biden will propose a 28% corporate tax rate plus a 10% penalty surtax on the profits from any production by a U.S. company overseas for sale on American soil, making the overall tax rate on those profits 30.8%.

Don't do a percent of a percent.

Author made the fatal mistake of thinking "access to source code" is the specific, concerted goal of Free software, not you know... software freedom. In a world of forced software updates, elusive and feared "algorithms", etc, it doesn't seem like a particularly "esoteric" goal to me.

In France we have HAL:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper_Articles_en_Ligne

"Hyper Articles en Ligne, generally shortened to HAL, is an open archive where authors can deposit scholarly documents from all academic fields."

I work at a university and I know library people and management check carefully that every paper we produce is deposited in HAL.

Also:

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper_articles_en_ligne

"Depuis le 25 septembre 2018, les dépôts de logiciels sur HAL sont connectés à Software Heritage"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Heritage

For recruiting some french institutions like CNRS will only consider papers deposited in HAL when doing the evaluation.

Certainly more resource-intensive.
Congrats! I agree that this is a very important problem to solve. Can you elaborate on some of the specifics of how LTSE will incentive investors to think long-term?

I’m imagining some strict trading frequency limits. Like an inventor can only trade a specific stock once a year. Do I have the right idea?
Yes, there are ads. Top promo, 2 spaces for sponsors, and a small banner from Carbon ads. Depending on your resolution, it can take up significant space:

It's not noticeable on larger screens but they should consolidate these to a single location and definitely don't have a banner ad in the main page header.

As long as they're not going to release it it shouldn't be a problem I'd think.

On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them... It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Leopard."
Why did you feel the need to support trading of non-LTSE listed names on the LTSE? Are there novel order types or other trading mechanics coming down the pipe?
They have chips in them only looking to match the activation words, which then passes the rest of the request functionality to the full device.
Some weird geometry where space is curved into a four dimensional sphere. The sphere gets bigger, adding space between all the points. If the sphere is exactly the size of the observable universe, then the observable universe and universe would be the same thing.
> I don't see anything objectively more or less dangerous about operating a radio in this way

In my current vehicle I can change stations without taking my eyes off the road, I don't feel as if I'd be able to do that if it were on a touch screen due to the lack of tactile feedback.

Also, I've rented a few vehicles and I've never seen one that didn't have things like A/C on the touch screen, which is part of why I've formed the opinion I have. OTOH, what I've rented are minivans, where A/C is a bit more complex since it will often have a "driver/passenger" dichotomy as well as a "front/back"dichotomy.
Exactly my point, this is a software limitation and not hardware.
> Did the Ancient Greek person really read these as fervently as a modern religious person reads their holy book?

I doubt they viewed Homer like religious people view their sacred texts. However, Ancient Greek writers do quote and discuss Homer extensively. For example, Herodotus and Thucydides reference (and speculate) about Homer. Plato's dialogues refer to Homer a lot. Seneca, several hundred years later, is still quoting Homer with the assumption that his audience will know the poems quite well.
You have IDE for that in general. If you are writing all code in Sublime, then yeah, you have a problem.
> It's a choice which benefits all of society

Then maybe all of society should participate in that choice. AFAIK no one will question, or evaluate the results of that choice, so we only have your say-so of the supposed benefits.

If your kid emigrates the day they graduate, do you pay a penalty for the loss of benefit society? If I deem the "character and attitude" of the next generation to be poor, can I hold you to account, do I get a refund?

To be clear, I have no problem with corporations, or even the government, providing parents with perks and service; I do have a problem with the entitlement shown in demanding such things, especially based on some fluffy premise.

Minimum holds are very different from trade taxes. (The latter is stupid for a variety of reasons.) Minimum holds would make market making more profitable.
dvd as an abbreviation for Dasvidaniya, which in Russian means goodbye. Dasvidaniya is actually two words, not one: до (until) and свида́ния (meeting / date). So literally it means “until the next meeting“. Dasvidaniya is a formal way to say goodbye and should be used with people you don't know and those older than you.(Cribbed with Google's help from learnrussianwords.com.)

dvd removed files in Unix Version 6 and earlier. If memory serves, it operated directly on the file system data structures and was useful for recovering when the file system got "stuck".

Yes, the clear intent is by the author of this article to use inaccurate language in order to scare-tactic readers into thinking Amazon just wants to spy on you.

I have my own domain for blog, e-shop and e-mail.

Not everyone is even contactable from my own domain. The IP address used to belong to some spammers several years ago and some blacklists are still there.

Also, my newsletter, even though it uses double opt-in, triggered some automatic mechanisms of Spamhaus. I ended up on a blacklist several times. Fortunately, I was able to argue my way out and after the last incident, they must have updated their lists.

But those were bad times, no one could literally post a link to my blog onto Twitter etc.
The Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation is a pretty uniform field that exists over the entirety of the observable universe. It was created in the earliest days in our universe. The fact that it exists everywhere we look with high regularity lets us guess that we're only a subset of a larger universe. There are many theories about the unobservable parts of the universe but these are impossible to test with any foreseeable technology that doesn't fundamentally break our understanding of physics.

Have you tried "explicit template instantiation"? If the library templates have good separation, you can just add a cpp file so the compiler doesn't need to deduce the type each time.
Yes, it is (probably) related to Indian/Native American reservations, but that does not mean every utterance of an allusion to history is perpetuating racial injustice.

Frankly having people like yourself chime in at every juncture to tell other people they are perpetuating racism is cheapening the actual historical impact of these events. If you care about the people you claim to defend then do something to help them.

Please keep in mind the GP/GGP comment to this was folded for being offtopic.
I mean, is it harder than writing code in C++98 style, then suddenly having to deal with C++ and Rust combinations from 2015 onwards?

I'd say C++98 + C++17 is easier to deal with than C++98 + Rust.
This looks amazing. I am so glad that you kept it as close to the native Mail experience as possible.

My only question relates to payment. This is an app that I would gladly pay a solid price to own (in the ballpark of $50?). I would _much_ prefer that over a subscription model.

Because the site mentions eventual payment, but doesn't specify a pricing model, would you be willing to elaborate on your intentions?

It bugs me that no one realizes that the “end” refers not to the “edge” but at the closing of the universe - the restaurant is in a frozen time bubble that can watch the universe end.
I think it's debatable that OOP is "easier to understand and leads to more maintainable code". It depends on size of project and experience of developers.

There are still certainly benefits to using FP in JavaScript from a design, readability, maintainability sense, even if you are not concerned with concurrent code with no locks. A good FP design can be easier to reason about than an OOP graph of objects.

"We'll see?" This guy has been milking this since 1991. As Aaronson's article so sardonically points out, there's nothing there to debunk. Every claim that can be made about the "hydrino" can be made with equal weight about the "doofusino," so what's the point?

He's had three DECADES to set up any kind of publicity stunt or get the attention of any number of existing billionaires or just scrape together the resources he needs to build the no-shit this-changes-everything prototype.

5G is generally looking a good bit better than 4G in most markets (including in non-AT&T US markets). This would seem to be an AT&T problem.

That said, I wouldn't go near a 5G phone right now; in a year or so the price and battery impact will be down a lot.
This sounds like apologia from a big closed publisher (AAAS) explaining why open-access is supposedly bad. See, sometimes open-access journals fold, and when that happens, nobody knows what happens to the articles. But they'd like you to ignore two inconvenient facts: First, that traditional closed publishers effectively lose all articles by default by this metric! And second, that the Internet Archive, itself open-access, was essential to conducting the study in the first place!

SwiftUI will make the native application development experience much easier for Apple platforms. It still has a little ways to go, but once it's the "de-facto standard" for new apps, you will certainly see an explosion in innovative native development.

Hoping other platforms follow suit. Preferably using SwiftUI...hey, I can dream right?
In case the author is reading this, I really meant to say that the article is much better than what the title might indicate. I realized that my original comment can be read as if its casting a shade.
I think they mean it isn't continuously transmitting the data to Amazon/Google/etc.

The device does continuously monitor (capture) audio, but the detection is done locally and data is only transmitted to the respective service after the keyword match.

This is reasonable as long as you trust that the device is performing as designed (and that the design doesn't include any undesired behaviors).

I totally agree. I like rereading Terry Pratchett books because I enjoy them. I reread philosophy books because I want to remember the arguments and get a new perspective on the work based on new experience. I read books about physics, biology, history, psychology and other subjects to expose myself to new ideas and try to expand my thinking. I think there's a ideal mean here that rereads some and reads new books some.
DevTools architecture refresh: Migrating to JavaScript modules
Not key discovery per se. The attacker does not obtain a long term key.

Running this attack gets them the premaster secret (now the main secret presumably in RFC8446bis?) for one particular TLS session they're attacking. Assuming that session has meanwhile concluded and the attacker has recorded the ciphertext, they can now decrypt and read it. I think in principle if it's still in progress when they complete the attack they could try to MITM the session from a suitable on-path position. This might also impact resumption.

Because you (the server) use the same DH private key repeatedly the attacker gets to do a bunch of separate connections which fail, but they can measure the timing of those connections and use that to try to figure out the main secret for some particular TLS session they witnessed talking to the same server when it used the same DH private key.

If clients never do an affected DH key agreement the attacker doesn't have anything to work with. If the server picks random ephemeral DH keys the attacker doesn't have anything to work with.

If the server uses a better DH scheme which is less vulnerable to a timing attack (for example not stripping zeroes or ECDH instead of conventional DH) this attack gets much harder to do, maybe you need to be very much closer to your target, e.g. running on the same physical hardware to measure the time differences. But using ephemeral keys makes this whole concern moot, and was also necessary to Forward Secrecy, so everybody should already have been doing that.
Well that's not what this article is really talking about.

No. More teslas are needed for more signal to improve the signal to noise ratio. And there is a lot of noise with portable non-shielded MRI. The only way to compensate for this is by having bigger voxels (3-5mm per voxel rather than the standard 1-2mm), or repeat scans and perform averaging. The more drastic way is to do funky image reconstruction with compressed sensing or deep learning.

The wider bore does indeed come at a cost. You have more geometric distortion and a less homogenous magnetic field at the edges of the bore. Also, you will need stronger magnetic gradients to form image, causing more energy disposition (i.e. Heating the patient) and higher probability of peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS, involuntary muscle twitches due electric fields induced in the nerve caused by MR gradients).

Beginner Design Projects for Aspiring Front-End Developers
How to synthesize a customer data platform?
I'm looking for a way to synthesize CDP capabilities without buying or building a CDP.

For that, I think I would at a minimum need
(i) a persistent store with (structured and unstructured) data ingestion and real-time output capabilities (a data lake?),

(ii) a standalone "hygiene" solution to clean ingested customer records (identity resolution),

(iii) a pipe such as a standalone ELT that can send the ingested and cleaned data from the store to any marketing tool.

Does anyone have suggestions as to what companies/products could serve the above?
> OOP won against functional because OOP is easier to understand and leads to more maintainable code.

OOP as we know it today, which is not what the inventor of the term had in mind, likely won because it was easy to add it to C in a manner compatible with low-level optimizations that were critical in application code at the time, and less so now.

I dispute that one style is inherently easier to understand than the other, though each has certain problem domains where it maps particularly cleanly.
Regarding "a level playing field for all market participants" I don't believe that in an exchange that supports HFT there can be a truly level playing field. There are some technologies that can help mitigate the effects of HFT on the market. One is the approach that AZX [1] took where you do large and infrequent dual auctions. Another approach is to go with an Automated Market Maker (AMM) technology and eliminate the need for order books all together as has become popular recently in the cryptocurrency space. Some background research can be found here [2] but what really took off was Uniswap's innovative use of a "Constant Function Market Maker" [3]. This allows average individuals to provide liquidity while getting the benefits of what is normally only reserved for high frequency traders. I believe that an institutional grade AMM program would be greatly democratizing for the industry.

A convenient reality as they can also just be used to constrict the supply of shares on market more and more, which is what they do. How also convenient that it can result in gains much more amplified than dividends.

Yes, your observation is also true. But lets not pretend companies were really trying to choose between dividends and buybacks, most don't do dividends and ultimately never return capital to shareholders, which is the point of stock: to act as a conduit in sharing earnings.
That has a lot to do with the difficultly and cost of siting an MRI close enough and keeping it open for for emergency protocols.
