> So you're liquid in the direction that moves the price to where it needs to be and not liquid in the other direction.

"liquid in one direction" is a nice way of saying that no trades are happening, which is to say illiquid.

> If the slow market is inside of the bid-ask spread, then HFT is likely to be willing to buy/sell on the fast market and complete the other half of the trade on the slow market.

This seems to hinge on an unrealistic model of HFT as perfect-arbitrage machines that need to immediately close positions. In fact, it would be quite surprising if they were willing to do this, based on how they currently behave. If they were willing to close the loop like that, they would equivalently be willing to do it on existing exchanges, which they could do by posting an order inside the spread (which would, of course, shrink the spread). The fact that that is described as "inside the spread" is a pretty clear indicator that they are not doing this.

> The incentive to use this market for smaller orders is that you are likely to get a price somewhere between the bid-ask spread.

The reason that you don't currently get filled "between the bid-ask spread" is that the whole point of the spread is that it is the region inside which no one is currently willing to trade. If they were, the spread would be smaller. By what magic are they willing to trade inside the spread on your exchange, but not on traditional ones?
Sosumi Snap uses Clover internally.

[1] showed how to boot macOS in KVM without the usual Clover / Opencore setup but is not maintained for newer versions anymore. [2] shows how to run current macOS versions without Clover or Opencore in VirtualBox by changing the VM's ACPI(?) entries and loading variables into the NVRAM. [3] uses KVM but also uses Opencore.

I tried to translate [2] to QEMU but was never successful.

Does anybody know some resources how to have a pure KVM macOS VM without any hackintoshing?

> You have no idea how many times I was asked “hey, why are some processes green?” over these 15+ years — and no, it wasn’t annoying: each of these times it was an opportunity to teach someone about threads!

That's because there isn't a easy way in htop to discover that.

htop is great, I've used it for a decade, but I didn't know you could hide the threads (Shift+H) until I read this today.

A "View options" / "Advanced" menu item on the bottom bar would help discover these option exists.

I also pressed some key, and some things turned purple, and there's no indication what view is shown, what the purple colour means, and what to do to turn it off.
BBC is awesome, their news is very good and they produce some of the best series in the world. It's a shame that they have split up BBC UK and BBC International so strictly and do everything they can to lock all BBC UK offerings to citizens of the UK. It infuriates me that I'm redirected from bbc.co.uk to bbc.com and are being displayed something else than people in the UK. If I go to bbc.co.uk, I do that to find out what Brits are seeing.

My girlfriend would gladly pay for being able to access BBC UK series, but that's apparently impossible. They've made some horrible contracts with BBC International that seem to prohibit that. It makes no sense that she has to resort to illegal streaming even though she'd love to be a paying customer.

Another problem is also that BBC International creates and distributes US productions that are far below their normal standards. So if you're looking for BBC nature documentaries, for instance, you have to manually sort out all those trashy international productions that are like National Geographic commercials. As I've said, it's a shame.
Regarding your second point, during a pandemic, banning someone from the internet in 2021 could cause harm. Instead of being able to have essential items (food) delivered, one would have to expose themselves to the virus by mingling in a shop.
>> When an old style TV amplifies the TV signal and feeds it to the CRT tube, it leaks a lot of the boosted signal. I think the rumour that the vans were a fake was probably because they only ever had a few and it was mostly a propaganda show, but that doesn't mean they didn't exist.

Just because the technology exists, doesn't mean the BBC actually used it. For one thing, it would have been far cheaper to put out the word that the vans are on the streets and patrolling, than to actually buy them, equip them and staff them with trained personel that could operate the devices.

Alternatively, perhaps a few of those vans really did exist and the rest was smoke and mirrors- rumours, fake vans without any active technology, etc.

Note that the reason I'm finding this likely is that the TV Licensing people are known for using psychological warfare tactics. For instance, I don't watch TV [1] and yet I periodically receive threatening letters from the TV licensing authority telling me that if I'm found to watch TV without a license I'll be fined, etc. Clearly, they send those letters to all addresses in the UK that don't have a license, under the assumption that most addresses without a license actually need one and that by sending out threatening letters en masse they will scare some of those shirkers into compliance- regardless of how many people who don't actually watch TV they end up threatening in the process. I've also seen some really startling public campaigns with posters showing bullseyes on houses, creepy slogans about being watched and so on.

Their tactics are a veritable nuisance and their mass mailing campaigns may or may not have the effect they want, but they sure have the effect of bothering random, uninvolved people with threatening government spam.

_____________

[1] Er, well. I do occasionally watch TV shows, or rather clips thereof- on youtube. But that's not covered by the licensing. You need a license if you're watching TV programmes as they are being broadcast. So for example, I had a TV set for a few years that I used exclusively with a PS2 and I didn't need a license for it- but I'm pretty sure that if I had ever been visited by one of the TV licensing agents, I'd have been forced to pay anyway. How exactly do you prove that you have a TV set but don't watch TV? Most modern houses have aerial plugs - mine sure does. The only thing that really stopped me from connecting the TV set I had to the aerial was that I basically dislike TV. How do you prove that to an agent hell-bent on collecting?
Honestly i dont dislike my name, however i dont define my personality on it. If i am in a group of people that all call me something different i dont care either and represwnt the very same person. Not all people know me by the same name.

Oh, yay! Look who is still moving the goalposts... First we started about the environment, then it is the "impossibility" of layer-2 and PoS, now we want to throw Tether into the mix.

Yes, I have plenty of concerns about Tether. I tell anyone I can they should stay away from it. I also tell everyone that when Tether crashes down it is going to make Mt. Gox look like a day at the spa.

I also repeatedly tell them to avoid exchanges that can only do on-ramps in USDT and to use exchanges where they do have a proper KYC system in place.

I also repeatedly tell people that they shouldn't put money into crypto that they can not afford to lose.

I also repeatedly tell them that the idea is not to be rich by doing nothing. That buying crypto is not investing and that those trying to time the market or finding "moonshots" are stupid fools.

I also repeatedly tell people to do DCA, buy a little every month and get the money back during the boom cycles and only keep the profits to grow their stash, so that they don't feel bad about "losing" anything when the next crash inevitably comes.

I also repeatedly tell people that learning and getting involved with crypto is a matter of hedging against the vicious and corrupt financial elites that on each generation take away more and more of our agency and independence. That the price doesn't matter and that our freedom is what at stake. That there are tons of issues with the technology and there will be tons of bad actors trying to exploit both the technical and the social problems.

I tell them to expect things to crash any time, but I also tell them that even if past performance is not guarantee of future returns, so far every crash drove the price down 4x and then the boom cycle brought it back up 20x.

Depending on what country they live, I might tell them that even with all the crashes, BTC has NEVER gone down in price against the Brazilian Real since 2013.

You know what I don't tell people? That I have all the answers and they are fools for trying something on their own volition. Only douchebags do that.
Pretty sure its not. Its also kinda hard to nearly impossible in many civilized countries if you do not have a very good reason.

I love DEC VTs. Spent the first few years of my career as as a VAX sysadmin, and basically lived in front of various VT220s, 320s and 420s. Never got to use an original VT10x though.

I still hanker for a VT420 as they were the best - I can't afford one though[1], so I've had to settle for a Wyse WY-50 for my retro collection, which although is VT compatible, is not nearly as nice.

The annoying thing is this likely isn't easy to circumvent without an actual jailbreak since (from an evening of shoddy reverse engineering), the AES hardware responsible for FairPlay encryption gets locked out if the system is booted insecurely. So even if you totally disable security on your machine and patch the kernel, you won't be able to run encrypted app store apps since the device's FairPlay decryption key is withdrawn before you gain code execution. You can, of course, still can decrypt them using a jailbroken iOS device (or...AS mac I guess lol) and run them, but that's significantly harder.
The same also goes for:

"Learn X in Y".

People not only learn at a different pace, they also learn in different ways that take shorter or longer. And in most cases, this is just an introduction anyway and in no way enough to really learn X.

But I think we're at a point where clickbait has been too normalized. Content creators have to do it to be competitive and get their content seen at all. And consumers have just accepted that.

The best example of anti-clickbait I've seen is concluding/explaining the title directly in the thumbnail of a video.

Moderate CPI inflation is necessary for a productive economy.

Fiat currency also has the nice property of being able to be used as money (payment for goods and services). So no, a well managed fiat currency can be extremely useful.
Thanks for your answer! That certainly gives it some more context, I appreciate it - shame that even community created "covers" need to be covered by copyright now, since they're often quite transformative, but I guess this is the world we live in.

The articles I read on this at the time were putting it in quite a negative light, that must have had an impact on my judgement - either way, I'm happy that you're successful with this model and that you can make scoring music more accessible with your open source software. (I've used musescore from middle school through university, so it's definitely had an impact on me!)

Apologies for making unsubstantiated comments and thanks for clarifying.

The solution built in R&D (as far as the rumour goes) was much simpler. There were only a few channels (typically 4) and this would have been all analog broadcast. The much simpler signal that TVs "leak" is light.

So look at the pattern of changing colours through curtains, and compare to a TV in the van with something to diffuse the light over the top.

Of course, the even simpler approach is to tell people you can do this and just send around / threaten to send around random vans.
This is the second reference to The Catcher in the Rye I see in this thread... If Great Gatsby is anything like that book, I don't want it any closer to me than orbital distances.
>You can't expect people to telepathically know the law means something contrary to what it literally says.

This is exactly what a common law system expects you to know if what the law literally says is ridiculous. It is ridiculous that murder is legal if you get your intended victim in this area, and the law would expect you to say "hah, that's funny it says that, but I'm still not allowed to kill people"

Maybe if you had a Napoleonic system you could get away with it.
I'm not native and also am blown away by Fitzgerald writing, reading the great gatsby and tender is the night afterwards. They are rather different books, but I loved the characters in tender is the night a lot more, so my preference would go to this one I guess.

That's what I was thinking. And with autopilot type systems the car could line it self up to the cable. The major downside is that this might increase vendor lock-in for recharging stations.
The monetization part of the idea is as important as the idea. A lot of first time entrepreneurs waste time on a project that is impossible to monetize.
Not an engineer so this is just me spitballing / getting nerdsniped, but for that kind of use case I can imagine a charging station that you have to drive the car over, with a solid chunky connector sticking up into the car. Any cabling would be underground, and it could be combined with providing cooling for both the cable and the battery itself.

That would be the fast charging option, for at home charging you'd have to use the regular slow plug.
Because it was voted by HN users.

What does your comment has to do with hackernews?

If you were a frequent here, and represenative of the HN crowd (something which your question implies being), you'd have seen the same question time and again, and always the same answer posted from HN guidelines:

"On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity".
They were fake. It would be extremely difficult on most streets and impossible in virtually all tower blocks to triangulate an exact location to a single house/flat.

And the design was ridiculous. A working detector doesn't need to look anything like an aerial stuck on top of a minivan.

And the only record of them being used in a prosecution is for optical detection of combined RGB. Plus some handwaving. Not RF.

So they were pretty much a psy-op.

It's relevant that the license fee collectors - who belong to Capita, one of those curious quasi-private-with-state-support companies that buzz around the British government like flies - rely almost entirely on self-incrimination for prosecutions.

> The show that highlights, amplifies and prioritises the voices of working class people by filming them being evicted?

Thank you for pointing this out. I don't know British TV well so I wrongly assumed it was another show, because it sounded like it. The show I originally thought OP was referring to is called 'Can't Pay? We'll Take it Away!'. It is bile. That is what my above comment is really responding to.

It's sad to see people actually laughing at others' misfortune such as this youtuber, who has made a compilation of 'Craziest Freakouts Ever!' with clips from 'Can't Pay? We'll Take it Away!': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0kO9TA96h4

ETA: looks like you edited your comment. The original (and rather tone deaf) comment was: "I'm curious what is lost by people doing what they want to do."
You're contradicting yourself. You say it's good that the TV tax is levied by the government like social insurance fees but instead of it going directly to the government like social insurance fees, it goes to an "independent" organization and that's the "feature"? LOL, what?!

Do you really think that money is no strings attached?
Ideally it would be and I guess that's the idea on paper but in practice, the public broadcasters almost never criticize the ruling coalition on the "don't bite the hand that feeds you" rule.

IIRC during the 2015 migrant crisis, no public debate was allowed on public TV over the decisions made to open the borders and the only opinion allowed on TV was that "it's good for everyone" with any argument against mass immigration (not immigrants themselves) heavily verboten.

Is There Any Tool to Collect Data from Google Maps Search Results?
That's very true and one reason why I said "traditionally" but there are no Monuments or Grand Tours in either Britain or Netherlands. It's just a thought and not a very well researched one so I wouldn't expect anyone to take it too seriously.

For Joe Simpson, or say Earnest Shackleton's expedition to the Antarctic, these are stories where something went wrong and they were able to show heroic Endurance* just to survives.

In professional Cycling, it's slightly different, temptation is a factor.

You can stop at any time and you'll be picked up by the warm Broom Wagon or team cars that follows the race.

It would be so easy to give in to the devil on your shoulder offering you the easy way out...

Even giving in to that weakness is venerated by numerous photographs of weeping riders by the side of the road. Cycling fans seem to respond to a loser's suffering, as we recognise shared weakness.

That story of temptation seems to chime with stories of martyrs and saints.

Who knows though, like I said it's just a hypothesis.

The First UI Kits Integrate Bootstrap 5 with Angular, React
I'd guess it looks under-appreciated on the surface, because it is hard to run a business on such a premise.

Admitting it "officially" ultimately boils down to retaining by all means the engineers who already acquired the knowledge. Some of those will ask for more benefits, others will play games of power, others still will simply refuse to stay once they stopped learning.

(In my industry and geo) businesses chose the opposite -- they slice and dice the knowledge into tiny bins so that a total newcomer can learn up quickly enough. This drives down wages but now requires many more people where a few should suffice.

Solution to that? Total subcontracting of sw development. Which is of course a slow death for the business, but a) at least it looks like a business model, b) death is slow enough so that managers have time to move on, c) this has a merit of being implementable. The alternative -- finding people who already know or learn very fast, and then keeping them -- is not for every budget.
> Like I said elsewhere, I don't watch much broadcast TV

Today is a radio programme - this whole thread is about radio. So you won't 'see' anyone on it and it wasn't ever on 'last night'.

> In fact very little conversation about TV programmes in general.

Again... it's a radio programme. And I'd bet my life on the fact that whatever political media you consume actually does frequently has conversations about what happened on the Today programme.

> honestly have better things to do with my time

I think you're thinking it's an evening chat show? Today is essentially the nation’s daily standup, and it's in the morning. You’ll usually get a robust interview with a couple of ministers and often the Prime Minister. It’s a major way we have to interact with the Government daily. The Today programme will often be a primary source for whatever secondary source political media you are using.
