At least TCP is being worked on, MPTCP already is in iOS and is getting integrated into linux. As part of its ability to switch paths it will also have an endpoint-independent identifier, i.e. mobility.

Not as much, you could learn the basics on ipv4 in two to three 4 hour classes of study - assuming you know how to convert between binary octal and decimal.
You bring up a whole bunch of good points which I think people need to focus on your one line of greater fool theory. Theres such a huge misunderstanding of "value". Scarcity within itself does not create value. It's the mix of demand and scarcity that does, but to have demand there needs to be some inherent value in it along with timeliness.

One of the biggest fascinations I had in games was the EVE marketplace. If you dont know, EVE is a scifi mmo. The economy in the game is so legit, the devs have an econ PhD to analyze it and use it to help balance the game when new gear is in. Theres a good youtube video about this to help give a better explanation, but the jist of it, items in EVE are not permanent. Other mmos you can use whatever item indefinitely then sell it when you get something better. Dying and collecting your gear is trivial. Thus items have lower values, especially when better ones come in over time. In eve, when your ship goes boom, only 25%-50% or so of it survives... and whoever killed you nabbed it. This keeps the market value stable(ish). A bigger better gun or ship is no longer neccesarily better. The value, and I'm not talking about just price but the overall market demand, goes up for parts and ships that are niche and cost effective.

I'm on a phone and this is getting too long. Overall bitcoin is an investment vehicle based on privacy and scarcity. The first part no one can deny is rather brilliant and as far as I know has worked out as advertised (though let's not kid ourselves who 90% of that demographic is). The second part... I swear to everyone reading this, just get The Great Courses so you can listen to their Econ 101 class. Or just get it from the library or even get a random econ textbook. Read it. I bet you within 30 to 50 pages you'll fully grasp how childish bitcoin is. At that, everytime a major media news source has their econ expert talk, you'll realize they were all at the bottom of their classes.

Oh, somewhere in there I meant to say your comparison to Mario was bad because that game has inherent value, both nostalgia and still fun to play. You're comparing to something with no value other than giving utility companies more money due to the excess electricity generated to mine bitcoin. I still say Satoshi was just elec execs who drunkenly came up with this crypto scam: https://digiconomist.net/bitcoin-energy-consumption/

The illegal coordination between the Hillary campaign and the DNC was kind of a big deal, and did trigger a wave of corruption getting flushed out of the DNC. I voted for Hillary in 2016, she was by far the better candidate, but I also seeded the fuck out of those Podesta emails because DNC corruption is absolutely inexcusable.
Well, using "himem.sys" you could make use of RAM above 1MB... I used it to write a sort utility that only uses temp files when RAM was exhausted.

On my 386 with 4MB total RAM I could use about 3.7 or so, the rest was a shadowed BIOS copy. (Never tried to deactivate that, perhaps it would have been relocated and then made available?)

You could start with investing heavily in this planet, which is significantly more habitable than mars. Electric vehicles were a great start, but there's a lot more than EVs and reselling battery and solar equipment from China that can be done.

Yes but aging and death are inevitable regardless. Delaying them on an individual basis does nothing to solve that problem.
A random person being scared of something near their home does not make it actually dangerous. LNG doesn't explode like in the movies, it needs to vaporize and mix with oxygen to burn. A leak in an enclosed space can pose an explosion risk, but that's not an issue for a rail car sitting outside. Boiloff can potentially cause a tank to rupture, but this is easily prevented with a pressure release valve. If there is a leak, there is of course a fire hazard, but such a hazard is no worse than the leak of an oil tank. In fact, where an oil leak could potentially allow a large amount of fuel to pool up creating an explosive hazard prior to ignition, natural gas will mostly dissipate harmlessly prior to ignition. LNG transport is generally safer than crude oil transport, and a crude oil spill has much worse environmental effects. If you are comfortable with oil being transported through densely populated areas, you should be fine with this.
> Meanwhile at an office down the hall, Azure Maps has been humming along quietly since 2018, beating AWS to the punch by over two years.

Microsoft's actually been in the geo API game for significantly longer, pre-Google Maps. MapPoint started as a desktop GIS product in 2000 that let businesses create desktop maps, and they've had an online API since 2002... it started as a SOAP API: https://news.microsoft.com/2002/04/10/microsoft-announces-ma...

But it was pre-AJAX so Google Maps stole much of their mindshare. And it's been renamed so many times that no one can keep track of it (MapPoint, Bing Maps/Live Maps/MSN Maps, Azure Maps). Though the pricing and documentation has consistently been reasonable.
Slightly different regulations between EU and US/CA:

> "The colour of the turn signals on vehicles in Europe is legislated to be amber," says Thomas Tetzlaff, spokesman for Volkswagen Canada. "In North America, there is no such legislation, but there are different regulations about the minimal surface area of the blinkers."

> North American regulations say rear signal lights can be either red or amber. Canada and the U.S. specify a minimum size for turn signal lights, but regulations in the rest if the world do not, Transport Canada says.

> Often, the easiest way for companies to get their turn signals big enough, without building brand new rear lights specifically for North America, is to also use the brake light as a turn signal, Tetzlaff says.

Other aspects of Nintendo’s design ended up in Apple’s products. Supposedly, the design of the Game Boy link cable was the inspiration for the FireWire cable.

There were a few earlier translucent Apple devices though, like the eMate 300. My guess is that the suppliers for plastics in the 1980s and 1990s added better translucent plastics to their catalog, and that’s where people got ideas. Other manufacturers did it even earlier than Nintendo and Apple, like the transparent case landline telephones from the 1980s.

I don't really agree with the main idea of the article.

Based on what I've seen lately, Bitcoin seems to be perceived as a sort of exotic asset that is however becoming more palatable to 'serious' institutional investors. If things continue down this road, my feeling is that Bitcoin and perhaps a few other crypto currencies will end up with some sort of gold-like role in the investment landscape.

Note however that I'm referring to bullion, not rare coins that are collected for their own sake and that can fetch prices that far exceed those of their gold content.

I very vividly remember the trip to Microcenter to buy that iMac in 1998 with my dad - we set it up on the floor. There were two games included - MDK and Nanosaur

I would inherit that computer a few years later and spent I spent lot of time on it, mostly playing games and making pixel art.

Ehhh I don't know about that. IP takes a while to understand for most of the reasons articulated in the post. DHCP and ARP, for example, are a bit strange. It's just everyone already understands it, so explanations have been distilled pretty well.

That being said, I don't grok IPv6 myself, on account of never actually looking into it.
I just tracked my time for doing that Advent of Code day 1. It took 10 minutes from start to finish. Across the two parts of the question, I spent approximately 2 minutes building the scripts, 1 minute determining an algorithm, and 7 minutes reading the prompt. I suspect similar breakdowns for the 7:11 you quote.

If Dan excludes the prompt reading and solution determination because he's seen this sort of problem before, 1 minute using tools he's comfortable with doesn't seem unreasonable. Considering all it is is a list of hosts, a loop, a try/except block, and a scp command, using much more than a couple of minutes writing would be surprising to me.

Classic MacOS certainly had its flaws, but there has likely never been a more efficient mass-market general-purpose OS. In many ways, a ~400MHz G3 processor running classic MacOS feels faster and more responsive than a modern high-end workstation.

The ease of OS modification was certainly a double-edged sword...how much of the instability of the OS was because of drivers and other OS mods is hard to say.

I found that comment kind of odd, since the real king of sauce absorption is spaghetti rigati - spaghetti with ridges.

Bucatini has good sauce absorption but imho its claim to fame is its thickness, mouthfeel, and rigidity, which the author hilariously and accurately refers to as "sentient". It has a mind of its own.

There are two similar noodle shapes, pici and Strozzapreti (literally "priest stranglers") but they are even harder to find.
I have understood that current JIT compilers for JavaScript are smart enough to recognize when a function is called with the same type of arguments and compile the function into an optimized form making use of this typing knowledge. So, adding types to JavaScript might no result in a great performance boost. If will definitely make JavaScript more verbose which might have a negative effect on performance.
That was my first thought when I just saw "sidewalks" & "crosswalks" too. But AFAIK OSM doesn't have anything remotely like that level of sidewalk shape data. And while stairs on paths are mapped, I don't think outdoor building stairs are mapped.
Depending on what you mean by poverty, mostly yes for Western and Norther Europe if you do not count immigrants, who are in a more special situation.

The unemployment benefit is usually enough to cover material living costs and to have all the basics, like shelter, food in a fridge, electricity, running water, even entertainment like TV, phone, computer.

People have vastly different understandings of poverty and if you define it relative to the median income, you will by definition always have poverty.

Most areas of the brain are rather homogenous. They've done experiments rewiring inputs going to the visual cortex to the auditive cortex in rodents and they could see. Further, artificial neural nets demonstrate that extremely simple repetitive structures can implement a vast function space simply by training them by stochastic gradient descent. The most complex structures in the brain may be hardwired social behaviors, including facial expression and recognition, but these may not be necessary for the intelligence part as individuals strongly impaired in hardwired social behavior (autists) are sometimes capable of complex thought.

this story does not sound accurate. if Malma truly had good finances before this, it could simply take out another loan at a different bank, who would presumably look at Malma's true finances and ignore this fake immediate payment. it is standard for major companies to renew their loans at different financial institutions at different rates, and a single call bankrupting a company would mean that the company was already in dire shape. this is consistent with https://www.eurofound.europa.eu/observatories/emcc/erm/facts..., which says that the bank claims that the company was managed poorly, and the management claims that it was caused by reduced Russian demand as well as increased interest rates.
In one sense, almost certainly. But in another sense, any plausible fix is easy compared to the current situation.

- https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable - Clojure editor made in Clojure, not sure if it's being maintained anymore, core authors moved on to a different project if I remember correctly.

- https://github.com/mogenslund/liquid - Clojure editor made in Clojure, fairly new and basic but has a pretty tight integration with Clojure (itself really) which makes it interesting and it can also be embedded into other applications (or embed your other applications into Liquid)

- https://github.com/Olical/conjure - My daily driver for Clojure development. Is not an editor by itself, but it's written in Clojure, and exposed to neovim as a vim plugin. Not only supports Clojure, but also Fennel, Janet and Racket so far. Pretty handy if you sometimes like to dive into Clojure-like languages that are not Clojure (or Racket).

> “A security of what”

There’s a legal test called the Howey test you can use to find out if what you’re looking at is a security. [1] Roughly speaking a security is anything you put your money into with the expectation of it becoming worth more through no effort of your own.

> “Selling a random token is like printing my own money. The SEC would not prevent me form selling worthless piece of paper if I dont mislead buyers into thinking its some kind of ownership for something.”

You seem to misunderstand the definition of a security but even if you were right the conversation doesn’t end there.

The SEC absolutely has a mandate under the Securities Act to stop people who could be hurt by garbage offerings from buying them. They got this because permitting random unregulated securities sales in part led to the Great Depression, and they didn’t call it that because it was a pretty good depression. Sale of hot garbage on margin to folks who had no idea what they were doing destabilized the entire American financial system for a decade.

This is totally fair because if folks, especially poor folks, get wiped out they end up on public assistance. That means gains are privatized and losses are socialized. The SEC drew a totally reasonable middle ground line with the accredited investor rules. Accredited investors can buy all the hot garbage they want. Folks who can’t afford to can’t. That’s what securities registration gets us.

You may not agree with it but it is strictly their mandate.

> Like what if we were recommended what questions to ask in the first place?

That's what Google is doing in the last several years and it's very annoying. They don't try to look for niche sources and articles and just gently correct your query to pertain to something more popular or trendy. We don't need more of that.

> What if instead these algorithms were tuned to serve us direct websites or text that could provide our next source for inspiration?

Sure, I like that. But how do we ensure it would also not be used for ads and tracking again? I feel companies are just too easily tempted and can't be trusted.

> Seems like we got to a search bar that can answer any question we type in but haven't thought beyond it.

IMO a lot of us here thought about it but (a) it's not easy, it's likely a rather gigantic undertaking and (b) nobody funds such research and (c) we can't do it as a hobby while maintaining a $dayjob so in the end we are the mercy of the corps.

A large amount of oil comes into New Jersey on a single line near the Hudson river owned by Norfolk Southern. Every single crossing on the line is in a deplorable state of repair where rails are loose enough that they bounce around when cars and trains run over them. A highway grade crossing had collapsed in on itself and they ignored it for a year. They had to be forced kicking and screaming to start fixing them a couple years ago and the work is still ongoing. I wouldn't trust the assholes running these companies or the FRA to maintain safe infrastructure for dangerous cargo. Their current tactic is to punish the towns that complained loudly by ripping up the crossings and then not working on them for a month.
