It doesn't enforce anything. People can just transcribe wrong things into blockchains, then have to append patches to the information. Unless you can prove malfeasance nobody is going to lose a license over a mistake. I think you're vastly overestimating how much anyone would care just because blockchains are involved. Notary records are already "forever," no computers required, and there's nothing inherent to blockchains that causes people to type more carefully.

Plus there are lots of situations in real estate law (like ground rent where the freeholder is not identifiable) which don't fit into cute little data structures. This isn't a problem with documentation being a rush job, it's a problem with some of the records of ownership being hundreds of years old. Seeing as how I would have to hire a special archivist just to access data on an 8" floppy disk, I'm not confident that the blockchain is a long-term (i.e. centuries) solution to any of these problems.

I’m not surprised about the HN crowd. It fits squarely in the blind spots here.

Nobody removed the ability to sell stocks. Some brokers removed the ability to buy stocks (because they were near broke and couldn't afford it), which probably saved some potential buyers some money and brought this train wreck to a halt a bit earlier.
Wow, this is amazing at first glance. Will definitely have to dive into to see that it hits all the requirements. But as someone who trodded down this rathole when a client asked if we supported SSO, it would be an amazing utility to have around.

In any case, congrats on the launch and will definitely be taking a closer look.

What is "safer, more scalable way" about blockchain?

Safe? There are many solutions to maintaining reliable records. Blockchains are one, but no better than many others

Scalable? I cannot understand how it is possible to think that scalability is a attribute of blockchains. A centralised blockchain is no less scalable than many other cryptographic solutions, but a lot more bother. Distributed blockchains are not scalable at all, are they?

> Moderators aren’t just letting Redditors figure it out. They’re shaping the conversation into the illusion of a consensus.

That seems very risky. The mods are certainly identifiable, and the SEC will be investigating.
Certainly a fair critique, and one we can admit we saw coming.

We currently use the BSL license, created by MariaDB and used by companies like Sentry. We do think Osso is open source by common understanding and view the BSL as a fair model that places no restrictions on good actors - the license is intended to protect us from copycats profiting off our work, while allowing anyone that needs to integrate SAML into an app they’re building free reign. You’re free to use Osso as a widget, but you can’t use it to start a widget factory.

"Source available" seems like a fair compromise, thanks for the suggestion.

FWIW, We're big fans of Sentry's explanation of the BSL license - https://sentry.io/_/open-source/

To offer a hopeful counterpoint, informed comments and rebuttals were honestly engaged with throughout the fiasco. There was active learning, from somewhat experts seeing cracks that hadn't been so apparent before, to novices seeing the magnificent and horrifying complexity behind our abstractions.

I don't see that on Reddit. I don't see that on Twitter. I barely see it in print media, where the focus is on stoking schadenfreude and counting up who's losing to whom and by how much.

Not sure what I'm missing here

I'm currently awaiting 9 February for the shorts interest to be released, to see if they are right or wrong. I think it's really interesting what's happening/happened.

I'm not sure if I see a fallacy, that if you can hold a squeeze that another squeeze could happen if enough shorts stay open. Anyone can elaborate on that?

Taking into account that shorting costs money ( 30% interest at a certain moment, mentioned by S3 partners ), people can hold longer than shorts. And buying them would make the available pool to buy back much smaller.

What is wrong with that theory? It's similar to cornering the market ( if the stocks aren't tradeable again by the brokers) and GME doesn't have that much shares.

Ps. Only put some play money in it, practically nothing. Just curious what the odds are.

And I don't think I'm a meme guy, but to my perception there is logic in it. ( Eg. I'm not buying conspiracy theories about RH, because the flow was logical that they just needed money. ).

There has been some solid advice from people over there, you have to filter the mania, but there are some gems over there.

This morning there were two opposing top posts. 1) summarized as gamble your apes, 2) summarized as manage your risk and don't buy stocks with debt.

There was also a post by a legit investor claiming they covered their losses by selling at peak and everyone should have done this explaining the benefits.

Single stock trading is always a gamble, you should spread your risk and manage your losses in such a way that you win in the end (by selling losses to cover taxes on gains etc).

If you want good financial advice you can find it on WSB, but in general (imo) you should go there to make yourself feel good about your index fund or bad about your index fund. Either way, don't get caught up in the fervor.

Rational and evidence driven? Did HN became a scientific forum while I wasn't looking? This is a social network, which makes it opinion driven. Rationality and evidence are important, but they come second.

Yes, they paid for for the speech. You pay a consultant to write software for you, and they deliver software. You pay a public figure for a speech, and they write and deliver a speech.

I know you may object to how much she is paid. However, there are only 15 former chairs of the US Federal Reserve in history, and at the time she was one of 3 living (and not currently serving) ones, the first woman, and Paul Volcker is 92. Based on some basic searches, a celebrity commencement speech fee may run from $50-100K, and I would argue that Yellen's thoughts are far more valuable.

Let's turn this around. What freedoms would you take away from people that wanted to be government appointees? What if she had been an executive of Citadel for a year instead? If she doesn't do speaking fees, Janet Yellen still has a mortgage and bills. Speaking fees are public, have low quid pro quo leverage, and they are disclosed.

This is absolutely useful for anything with a high momentary power draw. Even with the quarter of the energy density. These aren't going to supply all the energy, just the peak power. The main pack can be sized for slightly above the average power draw, and it can charge the boost pack that needs to get you up to speed or handle the surge current sink from braking.

Regarding the "bangbang" operator: I agree that the syntax is overly cute and frustratingly confusing to new users of the language, but I still find I often want a "not falsy" operation. I've moved to using the `Boolean(variableToCheck)` pattern. It's certainly far more characters to type (without autocomplete) than the pithy double not "bangbang", but benefits from being explicit in what it is doing and benefits from some small performance fast paths in some JS engines over !!. (Micro-optimizations like that are rarely a good primary reason to switch to a different tool, but it's a nice side benefit from all the other reasons including and especially making the code easier to read.)

True. Just like in the casino, if you want to make real money, you must put all you have on one lucky number. Betting small amounts on red or black limits your upside severely.
That's an interesting observation. Why weren't they doing it before?
I find that most people don't realize they are always betting. Keeping your wealth tucked under your mattress in USD is still a bet. Everything is a bet and everything has different risk profiles.

If someone sees that shorts in GME are over leveraged, well in hindsight they were absolutely right to buy in to this "gambling".

I find the most irrational actors with regards to investing are the people who only do "safe" bets and feel like that carries zero risk profile.

Actually, I am more of a POSIX shell person, so I would like to add

https://shellhaters.org

It is a simple page with links to the corresponding parts of the POSIX standard which makes it a lot easier to find the correct documentation when you need it.

For those who wonder what POSIX is: It is a standard for operating systems and one part is about shells. So if a shell whats to be POSIX compliant it has to support certain commands. And if you write POSIX commpliant scripts, they won't just run on Linux, but also on MacOS, other BSDs and other POSIX compliant operating systems. Bash supports POSIX, but if you use Bash extensions that are not part of POSIX, you might run into trouble with other shells (e.g. dash on Debian).
While I like the idea, it seems to take a lot of thought and attention to detail to pull it off. Thinking about the 3D globe from Stripe and GitHub, and corresponding blog posts.

Oh, HN is more enlightened and civilized. It's just the bar is incredibly low.

On software topics, I can usually trust HN. Diet/nutrition, philosophy and finance discussions on HN, I take a much more careful view of.

I still heavily use RSS, but usually unsubscribe from feeds that truncate (unless it is a very long article).

It isn't a religious thing - the vast majority of the time, the truncation is way too short to properly advertise the content. The mystery doesn't move me to click-through, quite the opposite - it is annoying, so I remove the annoyance.

I understand the tradeoffs for folks who want to be paid via ads, but the utility just isn't there for me - I do not lack for reading options, and if something is really good, it'll find me some other way.
It's not something that we hire for specifically, but rather work out on a case-by-case basis. Working remotely generally makes one's job more difficult, and for someone starting out their career, it could be a large hindrance to succeeding in the role. Some people are good at working remotely, though. With COVID, most people are working from home most of the time. Working on embedded hardware, though, often times requires access to hardware and expensive equipment.
I think it's because people are afraid to cop to their privilege. This is based on how defensive people get when it is pointed out. I understand this response on an emotional level, but that should really pass after giving it a second thought (this, of course, assumes one is self aware enough to reflect on it).

The pricing here is definitely more applicable to Auth0 :)

But for us, charging per user makes predicting the cost of your SAML provider difficult, and everyone seems to do this. We charge per customer account instead - if one of your customers has 50 MAUs it wont cost you more than a customer that has 10. And you won't need to pay us more is your software is a daily driver vs. something thats used lee frequently.

Something I'd be curious about: how many of the hits on a new post are by RSS readers before the post hits HN vs. after? I know RSS is the most reliable way for me to notice a new post on blogs that update infrequently, and I wonder how many HN submissions come from people seeing a new post in their feed readers.
>Deviating from buy-and-hold indexing is mathematically a zero-sum game.

If buy and hold indexing is not mathematically zero (which I agree it is not), then plenty of deviations from it are also not zero sum (which is empirically true).

Any stock gives partial ownership of a (hopefully) productive asset. Larger collections of them (like index funds) provide some reduction in volatility, but index funds are by no means the only way to structure risk/volatility tradeoffs.
