Another video game that works similarly is Oxygen not Included.

One of the most compelling arguments for a data-flow/flow-based programming is the mental model and the visualization aspect of it. This opens up opportunities for monitoring, visual, data-driven programming and it is white board friendly.

In Elements of Clojure[0], the author discusses the concept of "principled components and adaptive systems". And a flow based design reminds me of exactly that. The semantics of composition and communication are well-defined and universal, but internally the components can (should) be specific and concrete.

Similar can be said about Small Talk as well. A primary aspect of its design was the mental model, understanding and learning. The core idea was that learners (especially children) understand things in terms of their operational semantics.

> I don't mean to derail the conversation, but this really does remind me of the game Factorio, though sort of in reverse.

So no, I don't think this is a derailment, but likely one of the most important aspects of paradigms like this.

> No, it mostly affects execution time.

That's what I was thinking, too, but most of the time (even if the index is not static) the -1 can be eliminated by just modifying the address at which the array is assumed to start. That is,

arr[x]

compiles into an access at address

(arr - 1) + x

Since the address of arr is statically known, arr - 1 is, too, and the address of "one before the first element" will be what's written as the base for the memory access.

This was always the major existential risk of all of these currencies. It always felt like the cryptoheads viewed currency economics through an academic perspective instead of a practical one. While fiat currency is about money, at the macro level its much more about cultural and political control. Yes, it would be ideal if we decentralized and things were more transparent, but to get there you are literally going to war with every major military in the world by asking them "hey guys, hand over that control/influence." It seems like an uphill battle and one that doesn't truly start until they begin to be seen as a threat.

Good luck fighters...

The US is about to embark on a substantial weakening of the dollar even more dramatic than 2020. They're preemptively heading off the tech elites who think they're immune to it because of their alternative "currency".

ANR maxes out at around 20db in an ideal environment, and is not equal in its coverage of frequencies. Good closed back over-hear headphones will offer around 10db of attenuation, and IEMs will isolate to 25db or greater (on par with earplugs).

And with good tips, IEMs are indeed all day comfortable.

On a more anecdotal note, I (and others who have spoken up on HN) get fatigued by ANR, similar to as if I’m listening to too-loud music. That, and the frequency issues with ANR, have pushed me more towards IEMs.

I appreciate the tutorial, but I probably do already "know" vim, but it's not part of my muscle-memory. Context switching to something like writing an email or filling out a web form really makes it not worth getting too comfortable with all these esoteric shortcuts. Do you write all of your emails in vim and browse the web on the command line as well?

From reading the rest of the replies, it sounds like the real answer is "because it's everywhere", which isn't really satisfying. I don't work on lots of machines that aren't my own (embedded/mobile space, which don't have vi installed!), so I don't actually encounter it everyday despite living on the command line.

There are a whole bunch of restrictions on moving gold across borders, and it's generally impractical to transact in gold for small transactions. You would have to not only carry the gold with you in useful increments, but also the appropriate assays to prove its value (which means you can't subdivide gold on the spot to make change).

That makes gold less useful as a currency than cocaine, ammunition or ram sticks.

This is why I stopped using extensions in any browser years ago unless it came from a trusted company I pay directly (i.e. 1Password). The broken economic model means that the developers always have pressure to cash in on a popular extension and Google has set things up to make abuse fast and easy with automatic silent updates and their usual skimping on human review. By the time the news about TGS came out most users already had the next release installed.
I was trying to get across the point that democratic freedoms necessarily imply the freedom to make mistakes; at best you can slow them down and make em less likely by historical happenstance. And as pointed out, no legal document matters if enough popular sentiment opposes it; people just throw it out (it's happened in other countries before). So perhaps this benchmark is too high a bar.
There is no easy way to stop the Bitcoin network so if they really wanted to kill Bitcoin they would make it illegal to exchange Bitcoin. But then people would exchange it and just not report it anywhere, and they’d lose tax revenue.

I don’t think there is much they can do, except shut down companies like coinbase. That would also just lose them tax revenue.
Don't underestimate the power of incumbency. Gold has been something used as an exchange commodity far before currency. Its also impractical at scale so much less a threat to the general system.

Yuck, as much as I hate this argument, which is basically just the "think of the children" argument restated, I'm rather convinced that Yellen's point is true.

There are no legitimate uses for bitcoin that I can think of, other than:

- An instrument for speculative investing

- Sending money to dissidents in other countries

Neither of these seem like high-priority use cases that will suffer unduly from more regulation. By contrast the primary use case for bitcoin seems to be riding the speculation bubble, followed by buying stolen accounts/credit cards/identities and illegal drugs.
Of course, that's a fair point. I suppose the elected nature of the Presidency certainly give the office a democratic legitimacy Georgie and his successors never enjoyed, and that insulates the office from reform.

At least for PC games the model has switched to licensing per player. Steam doesn’t allow you to resell games and this has created an explosion of indie games and developers. Especially for small developers imagine how hard it would be if the handful of players just passed around a few copies. It essentially forces everyone to make online multiplayer games.
There is no free market in communication. "Was able to deal with it" is a curious turn of phrase: Yes, there are still companies. But has Americans' access to communication kept pace with the technology and with the rest of the world? Very, very far from it. Americans, collectively, pay far more, for far fewer bits, than others in the world, particularly once you get just a few miles away from a city center.

It is telling how much higher prices are in places where competition has been curtailed by the FCC's failures, and how much higher even prices where two services operate are, than in other countries. The number of states where towns have been forbidden to operate a municipal network also reveals our poor condition.

America is a third-world country in communication, just as it is in infant mortality. It is not accidental. There are reasons that a cable service is the most hated company in the US, more even than Cargill, Archer Daniels Midland, or Koch Industries, which might deserve it more.

> The industry eventually must evolve to create software assistants capable of running code, triaging bugs, etc.

In my opinion, we had this. They were your senior support staff or were operations; some companies combined this into a formal role called "Support" or "Service" "Operations."

But then we as an industry decided that operations is bad[0] and if you write the code then you can obviously test the code, deploy the code, maintain the code, and support the code. Then every Hip And Cool Start-Up adopted the model of "sysadmins and support staff are bad because we've had bad experiences in the past so we will also have our devs talk directly to customers until they get tired of doing that and we just replace it with a contact form encumbered by CAPTCHA and a no-reply e-mail address."

As someone who has greatly enjoyed, been very good, and very well paid (so my employers agreed that I was good at it), at support and operations roles only to see them disappear into the inky void of Everyone Codes All Of The Time, I am both biased and frustrated.

I foresee more and more government intervention trying to prevent people from using cryptocurrencies. I mean, the most common use case for a cryptocurrency like Monero is to dodge government taxes and make illegal transactions.

God bless the developers and cryptographers who are continuing on the good fight. And good luck to them too, because as their technology gains influence and threatens to usurp todays power, they will face resistance. Maybe the original authors of the protocols saw this coming, which is why they used fake identities like Satoshi Nakamoto, or Nicolas van Saberhagen.

I'm less worried about it becoming illegal (what are you going to do, ban math?), and more worried about the networks themselves getting compromised.

Yep and that industry has also shifted to a license per viewer/screen model as seen with Netflix et al.
Useful data points I think would include:
- Suicides, attempted and successful
- Calls to suicide hotlines
- Overdoses
- Phone call data, assuming a sufficient database of people's relationships -> anecdotally, people are calling each other way less
- Following what people are watching online- I bet youtube and facebook have an extremely good measure of how many general segments of viewing population there are, and I bet these have increased. Amazon book sales might do the same.
- Alcohol sales, obviously. Friends in the industry say volume has quadrupled while unit price has dropped by a similar magnitude.

All they need to do is make it illegal to complete an enforceable contract with crypto. In other words, you can sit and stare at your coinbase account all day, but you can't ever legally get hard currency to spend it, and you can never pay for services or products with it. All of this is trivial for world governments.

And the underground economy is a rounding error, if BTC is relegated to the dark web, it will lose 99% of its value.

> every major government in the world will be on board

I can see a strong argument for governments to be intrinsically against something that takes away their own power. On the other hand, if that thing takes away the power of their rivals more, there's no reason for them to see it as a net win and act accordingly.
It's the offset of the first array element from the start of the array. The first element is at the start of the array, so the offset is naturally zero—there are zero elements prior to the first element. Like the markings on a ruler, array indices are cardinal numerals (0, 1, 2, …) counting the distance from a reference point, not ordinal numerals (1st, 2nd, 3rd, …) representing rank in a sequential order.

As for the iPhone bridge, that does use a jailbreak which is, of course, an exploit--one that Apple has patched and the patch deliberately not applied to the device in question.

I assume you're moving away from the US, if not, my comment content may not matter. But going through the same moving away thought exercise personally, one consideration (esp as one gets older in the US), is the degree to which your personal wealth is at risk from medical financial exposure over some major medical issue. The odds increase as your age does. It's possible to be somewhat protected from this in the US, but it takes a lot of very careful reading of health insurance documents, some considerations as to losing that insurance if you're getting it from an employer, as well as maybe putting into place added layers of insurance.

In addition, some studies point to not only worse care in the US if you aren't in upper incomes, and living in the right regions, but also that even with the higher levels healthcare in the US that come with wealth, the outcomes can be lower than what median care quality in leading EU nations provides. I'm not sure the studies are fully conclusive, but that's two healthcare factors that you haven't mentioned, that I thought over when looking at moving away.
