It may have to do with the appearance of arrogance in incorrectly using a term they don't understand instead of a simpler term they do.
You're missing the point. The point isn't that there are zero transactions, it's that there is an upper limit to the transactions allowed on blocks (a very famous limit) which allows for these types cost calculations.
I had the pleasure of working at Reddit for a few years. I even worked with Chris from time to time. He's one of those people that you can just tell is genuinely a good person shortly after meeting him. I'm happy for the success he and Reddit have seen recently.

After reading "We are the Nerds"... well, I don't want to say I got the impression he was treated poorly. But it was very odd. He seems like a hidden founder which is weird considering how many treat Aaron Schwartz, given the stories told about them both in the book.
I would have thought dumping the plastic in a deep pit, perhaps with some kind of solid lining would slow/prevent the plastics breaking down into "micro particles" (whatever they are) and ending up in our food.
Politics ain't gonna be boring again for a while yet, though I can understand why you might push that narrative. Trump was a mere symptom of political dysfunction that includes both parties. Until our government can actually address the needs of its people we're going to continue swapping back and forth between the two parties.
People just find these comments lazy and boring. Just like calling Biden senile by the other camp etc.
I fivorously looked for this yesterday and failed to get it.

Thanks alot.
sure. i think the big ones are all kind of related:
- a proper commandline, not just "open url / search" field
- everything's an excmd. you can compose them and write your own. you can bind them to keys or use them adhoc.
- you can define excmds that execute javascript snippets

I wish more attention (money) was given to cyber security on infrastructure projects, and all projects. Cyber security is a mess everywhere. How Many organizations in the USA have not been hacked or are Unhackable? The only one I would guess is google and maybe amazon? Banks and financial markets seem competent as well.

"predictable performance for numeric-heavy, legacy"

You mean all that 'legacy' C++ meant for the web?

Yes, I see what someone might mean, i.e Autocad able to re-use a lot of code, but those are small use cases.

And as for 'predictability' ... is it really predictable in application, given the amount of quasi-compilation that has to happen to get to WASM, and, more important, does it matter if it's predictable if it's slow, or rather, V8 is 'fast enough' in comparison?

The fact is, WASM is a Zombie Technology. It's odd that it continues to exist, like Bitcoin it has a few vested interests, and the 'dream' seems real, but there are just very few material uses cases, and the practical reality of doing anything functional with WASM is very small.

It's an intellectual concept, created without any specific customers/users in mind, and as such has very little adoption.

Because V8 is 'so good' and 'fit to purpose' and increasingly so (whatever stated objectives are), it means the real opportunity for WASM just fades.

Porting old C++ is a narrow case, and writing new C++ with a janky toolchain, and very limited ways to interact with networking, and UI ... all for what reason again?

This is pretty much how Scott Albrecht of Silk Road was caught. The police caused a distraction the grabbed his unlocked laptop while he was at a cafe.

Of course, maybe bringing an unlocked laptop with details of your drug empire to a cafe wasn’t the best opsec out there.
The Logitech K400 (sold as a smart TV keyboard mainly) is pretty well known, and they have a bunch of other keyboards with touchpad.
We had a similar initial thought, but I was concerned about something like morse code being both too slow and vulnerable to "timing attacks" (professor noticing that the amount of time it takes to recite any digit is directly correlated with what that digit is).

I also assumed that this would be an interactive exercise wherein the professor might stop you to chat midway through and/or drop a few "your audio broke up there; can you back up and repeat the last N digits?"s to throw you off.

That, and it's more interesting if the solution also has a shot of working in person, which is why I didn't go for anything like "hang the numbers around the room".

Quite the opposite actually. Tires are already a huge source of microplastics pollution. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5664766/

The problem is that landfills aren't living up to their names. They aren't being filled in and buried. Burying plastic is the best thing you can do to dispose of it. It's only when they're left in the open air to break down and be spread all over the oceans by wind that you have a problem.
Actually, eat a metaphorical detective. I obviously didn’t make a point to read anything into your comment. I mistook your meaning because I sincerely thought it was other than what you clarified. And not only apologized directly for the mistake but purposefully made an edit at the top of my comment to be clear I recognized my mistake and had no ill intent. You coming for a snipe after is unnecessary.

I wasn’t as charitable in my interpretation as I could have been, but honestly I had no idea Hustler isn’t such a common name that there would be any ambiguity. You could take a charitable interpretation in turn and recognize that I sincerely thought you were upset by the prominence of that publication/brand being in the title and see where the rest of my response follows from that.

Yeah that say that like it’s a good thing but all I’m reading is a scathing indictment.
No one I know using a 60% keyboard only uses the 60%. As someone else mentioned, you use things like the fn key.

For my keyboard:
fn + jkli (or fn + wsad) for arrow keys. fn + uo for page up/down. fn + hn for home/end. fn + <number> for f1-12.

I rarely used insert/delete. I never used the number pad. I have my capslock set to be fn.

I was tired of a full sized monster keyboard taking so much space on my desk. At first I tried TKL but enter key placement turned out to be awkward for me, so I switched it out for a 60% since there was going to be a learning curve regardless.
I think this is even scarier, that there can de emergency where sysadmin should manualy fix it. There should be fallbacks and redundancies with muliple levels if this is realy a crytical system. These would should give enough time to transport whatever personnel you need on site to fix things.
Yeah, this one keeps surprising me. It's not like moving to aligned rows would be a huge transition like e.g. moving to Colemak. We could just make the keyboard like that and we'll be done with the transition in 40 or so years.

(Of course I know many reasons why that's not happening. I'm just frustrated by the staggerphilia all around.)
Have you seen the Uber ad, "Everyone should have a side hustle?".

I worked on software that interfaced with industrial control systems on some large machinery that could definitely kill people (and sometimes did, anyway). We absolutely flew out to every location to make changes, around the world. Yes, it was a great cost of time and money. But it's just irresponsible to allow connections from the outside when something going wrong would kill people and cause a lot of damage.

Ask HN: Should you care about privacy policies if you have nothing to hide?
I meet people sometimes that don't care about privacy policy because they think they have nothing to hide. I think there were some stories on HN where someone thought they have nothing to hide but then got into problems because their privacy was misused or their data was misused. Those stories provide lesson that everyone should care about privacy and how their data is used. Cannot find such stories now using search. anyone has links to them? Or any similar story or news articles that can be used to convince that everyone should care about privacy even those people who think they have nothing to hide?
I have no idea how you managed to misinterpret my comment that badly. The existence of police does not imply a police state.

You prefer lynch mobs over due process? Fuck that.
They fixed the problem, but turning off the alert.
Epic! There's really something about knowing even an old tool inside out, and being able to do amazing things with it.
There was a HN post[0] recently about that, you can find more insights reading the comments. I went from vim-vixen to vimium then to tridactyl. As for features that only Tridactyl provides (things may have change in the meantime) I must say that I absolutely love their hinting mode. It's totally different from anything I have used (even qutebrowser's which is completely keyboard focused [1]). It also provides a desktop executable that allows you to edit everything in Vim. That said, I've been using it for 6 months and I know I only scratched the surface.

There's an old tale about this where everyone switched from brooms to vacuum cleaners to save work, which then caused a coal plant to be opened for the increased power demand, which proceeded to dirty everyone's homes so everyone was working just as hard for a slightly dirtier home than when they were using brooms.

At least for the home example, you're usually better off reducing the factors that would make a break-in happen in the first place rather than trying to win an arms race against a determined attacker; there are high trust societies where people don't bother locking their doors and people don't get burgled. But obviously the threat model is different than a utility.
What you describe is noblis oblige. It's a long standing cultural force ofarguable efficacy peculiar in particular to France/Britain.

FIAT is backed by the military. The countless wars to maintain hegemony are surely very environmentally destructive. Has anyone done a comparison study between the US dollar and Bitcoin from this environmental perspective?

Edit: I looked it up on Wikipedia and found this:

>In FY 2006, the DoD used almost 30,000 gigawatt hours (GWH) of electricity, at a cost of almost $2.2 billion. The DoD's electricity use would supply enough electricity to power more than 2.3 million average American homes. In electricity consumption, if it were a country, the DoD would rank 58th in the world, using slightly less than Denmark and slightly more than Syria (CIA World Factbook, 2006).[1] The Department of Defense uses 4,600,000,000 US gallons (1.7×1010 L) of fuel annually, an average of 12,600,000 US gallons (48,000,000 L) of fuel per day. A large Army division may use about 6,000 US gallons (23,000 L) per day. According to the 2005 CIA World Factbook, if it were a country, the DoD would rank 34th in the world in average daily oil use, coming in just behind Iraq and just ahead of Sweden.

This makes more sense to me, I was wondering how that would have gotten set by a clueless user.
The answer turns out to be that old dell machines shipped some shitty avatar software (along with lots of other stuff) that defaulted to on. The lawyer is probably using an ancient dell computer with this software and hasn't used video chat on it before this.

This is extra hostile, because it's separate from whatever video chat application they were using - so it would have been harder to know about and turn off.

As an aside, Microsoft fought in court to force OEMs to not install this crap alongside Windows (reasonably since it was damaging their brand and making the machines less secure), but they lost. Another reason why the macOS model is better for users. OS companies should make their own hardware.

Terrific. Let me know when the "police and the justice system and people" start investigating Rod Ponton's persistent and seemingly malevolent use of his vast prosecutorial power to destroy an innocent woman's life.

> There is no need to sic the Internet lynch mob on every person unfortunate enough to get 5 seconds of fame for some dumb thing.

Go ahead and address your letter of complaint to reason.com. Let them know you object to their "lynching" of Rod Ponton, based on nothing more than thorough journalism and public records.

> Oddly enough, it is not the job of random people to pass judgement and harass strangers over the Internet based on a news article they skimmed for a couple seconds.

Perhaps you don't care enough to learn about the case, or even read an article about it. Maybe you relate to Rod Ponton and sympathize with him. Regardless, given your apparent inclination to defend him from scrutiny by people who do happen to care, the only sensible response I can muster is Fuck You. You're part of the problem.

I already have more staggered keyboards than I can use from 60% to full size. Not much incentive to buy more unless you are Chryosan22 and need all the keyboards. But I don't have an ortho. I am curious to try one but I know from experience something like a plank would be too limited. I don't mind giving up the keypad but I like 6 rows and nav keys. I might be more likely to buy an ortho variant just for something different.
Interesting results. It says that for the participants in the trial on the drug, the weight began to come back after they stopped taking the drug. This might be a block buster drug for Novo Nordisk at $12k/year/pp. The numbers are astounding.

A couple ideas:

If you don't like privacy then you don't need curtains in your house.

Ask them to unlock their phone and hand it to you. Most people will balk.

One thing to think about is that some people don't mind losing their privacy to the government or a corporation but they do care about losing it to real humans that know them. As an example, if a husband is cheating on his wife he doesn't care if the NSA or Big Tech knows about it because they (most likely) won't do anything negative with that information. But he would want to keep that information from people he knows because they may use it against him and will definitely treat him differently by having that knowledge.

Food for thought.
> I don't think I'd want to be on a trial for this for a disease that is primarily an annoyance.

You can go blind, lose your sense of smell permanently, and get encephalitis from bad herpes outbreaks. It isn't just an inconvenience to those people.

And because herpes infects practically the entirety of the population, these problems are more common than you would expect.

And that's before we start chewing through all the viral data were going to get due to everybody actually paying attention to symptoms due to Covid. I suspect that the "viral hypothesis" people are going to have a field day for the next 10 years.

That's not exactly how C works, but I wasn't going to use C as my primary example, I was going to use Rust. You have to write "let mut" to let a variable be reassigned/mutated, and variables in Rust are almost identical to ones in Python as far as being an abstract 'namespace' binding.
