Technology continues to advance - I don’t think there is enough evidence to say that we have hit a fundamental limit on computer/asic power/speed performance yet.

3nm will hit in 2024, but until then there will always be advances in chip design. It’s not just about speed, it’s also about thermals, power consumption and manufacture price to work out the TCO of mining.
I agree and won't go down that path yet. Good heads up.
Have you tried redux toolkit? createSlices?

Redux has greatly improved workflow for integrating with React. The main issue with Redux is that it pretends to be generalized state management engine, with all the overhead, while it’s in a shotgun wedding with React.

Will React team attempts another state management, aka Flux, when Redux does 95% of features and is slowly being absorbed into React eco system anyway?

Gatsby/nextjs will likely merge into a single React static site generator. Similar to React router and Reach router merger.

React is like jquery, it’s going to be around forever. React is almost at the core web infrastructure tech level, just by consensus alone.
Even if you don't use any plugins for streaming pirated content a lot of people use it as a player for downloaded torrents or streaming from seedboxes.

> I happen to use a mail server that is less forgiving (Courier), and every now and then I cannot send a mail due to this. It’s rare, but it does happen. If your mail server has such a configuration you may not receive some legitimate e-mails.

Why not fix Courier? Seems easier than trying to convince others to change how they configure their DNS. Be forgiving in what you accept and disciplined in what you send.
Hell yeah, I still love working on my 9 years old MySQL+PHP side-project. No build process, no issues with updating to latest package versions, it just works and you are not fighting with the language or tooling itself.

I did add meanwhile some extra parts on top to improve the development and releasing process, but those parts can be changed and removed at any point and the project would still work as expected.
Not off-hand, no. Also note that such figures will be estimates: We've yet to raise the share of renewables to levels where such costs really become significant...
So if I put up a website at doxsyoc.com with your email address, phone numbers, home address, credit card details, social security number, daily schedule, bank statements and employment information you would presumably not try to have it removed because "Trying to suppress knowledge is never the answer".

I wonder how hard it is to move a big codebase like this off of python to a language where programs have a longer half life.

Alternatively, has anyone considered creating an LTS python version? Back in the old days, debian’s perl maintainers effectively did this for a subset of cpan, and it worked well.
They won't because the Social Media platforms prerogative for bans isn't ideological, or to be consistent. Their sole purpose to do what's best for themselves. Therefore they benefit from having vague, ill-defined rules that allow for selective enforcement.

Look into the research that MAPS (and others) is doing with MDMA. Amazing results with people who are suffering from severe PTSD.

I expect it will be a powerful tool that can help people suffering from a wide variety of traumas. Side note, but we don’t understand nearly enough about trauma. Unresolved trauma is an enormous driver of human suffering. I think it may far more widespread and take many more forms than what the textbooks say.

What are your thoughts on eip 1559 and it's impact on mining profitability? That is supposedly coming this summer and my understanding is that it fixes in place gas fees, and burns off some fees that would otherwise go to miners. I'm not sure how large of an impact that will make on mining profitability, but I was under the assumption that some miners were going to pump and dump their cards right before they anticipate gpu profitability going down, so they can make some scalper money. I was thinking that miners would be redistributing their supply in the next 3 months or so.

Years ago I was on a 747 from SFO to LHR that landed in Iceland - oil pressure problem in an engine. A guy drove out with a pickup truck, climbed into the engine using a ladder in the back of the truck, and started hammering away. After a few hours in the terminal we got back on the plane and flew the rest of the way to LHR. I kept wondering just how qualified he was...
Agreed. The last one was pretty clearly a failure of a shaft or turbine, and the damage was much more obvious. This might be something completely different.
Do you have dozens of phone bills to pay every month?
Like when Infowars, Alex Jones, Donald Trump, the Parler community as a whole, became more popular and enjoyed popularity for years on end after they got banned?

Toxicity, violent rhetoric, racism, conspiracy theories, and lies in general all seem to thrive on social media. The Streisand effect is also a real thing. But there doesn't appear to be a meaningful overlap between the two after about a month.

Infowars gained a huge number of people when that guy was deplatformed, but that kind of nonsense needs a constant influx of new people when people eventually get burnt by believing something like Sandy Hook never happened, Q is real, Jews and black people are the cause of all your problems because you're special, etc and hard evidence gets presented. People wise up and peel off.
This is often a struggle I've had as an engineering manager (though also as an active individual contributor). When I push back on adding new components roughshod to a stack, its often framed as "not invented here" dogma. I certainly can do a better job at communicating my sentiments, because I can and do predictably come off as a "grumpy old man" in these conversations.

But more often than not, this feedback comes from engineers that a) have never been (as you say) bitten by complexity, or b) they aren't in the position to deal with all the negative consequences for those decisions.

There's probably some wisdom in letting your direct reports experience the kinds of failure in making these decisions, so they develop that sort of empathy, but the cost of that failure is sometimes just unacceptable for the business; especially in periods of cash runway constraints.
I've been janitoring email for years and have never seen someone put an IP address in an MX record.
Hi! Yes! Just pick a different one! The problem is that constructivists have been formalising mathematics for decades and have not really managed to break through into the mainstream mathematical community with their efforts. The difference with Lean's maths library is that we absolutely reject constructivism, which makes Lean far less suitable for certain kinds of computations but conversely far far better equipped for proving all the theorems in an undergraduate mathematics curriculum and then going on to tackle research level mathematical questions of the kind which most mathematicians recognise as "normal mathematics". My argument (I should say that I am the author of the blog post) is that this resolutely non-classical approach is far more likely to arouse the interest of mainstream mathematicians, who rejected constructivism 100 years ago and have never looked back. I can certainly see a role for constructive mathematics, however I know from experience that most working mathematicians reject it and hence the pragmatic approach is to reject it when formalising if we are to start appealing to the mathematical masses.

Yeah, I'm sure there are valid reasons for why it behaves the way it does and there have been staff reductions in the last few months. The point is that it is pretty typical to spend huge amounts of time figuring out why things work they way they do, and it turns out to be some minor detail that isn't going to help you be a better programmer, it is just work that needs to be done to keep things from falling apart. It isn't very romantic.

I’ve used kodi since it was XBMC, “backups” was always its main focus, the amount of content available as a DRM free download is extremely limited and if we are realistic the amount of people that do their own rips form movies they own can probably fit in a movie theatre.

Kodi never went full on popcorn time but it’s pretty useless for anything but a large and quite likely pirated media collection.
> Granted, this logic can't be viably applied to most things,…

This specific thing, for example.

> ... but there are projects where you can assume that most of the use-cases will be shady.

An assumption is a poor basis for an argument. Even in the case where the assumption turns out to be correct, I don't buy this line of reasoning, because it would apply generally to security tools. Such reasoning also makes it far easier to attack things even where the assumption is known to be wrong (e.g. bittorrent).
Contact local small-scale computer repair shops.

We often have used GPU's for around the price range you're looking for. They won't be fantastic, but probably an upgrade for a 9 year old machine.

Edit: I should also add, a lot of the really small scale shops also don't list 100% of their inventory online, with the benefit that it doesn't get scalped up like everything else.

Schooling has little impact on final outcomes generally. The biggest factors are genetics, and parenting.

The problem is that acknowledging this leads to politically incorrect conclusions, so we continue to throw money at education and certain schools.

We'd achieve better outcomes by reducing air and plastic pollution which are shown to have substantial negative potential impacts on intelligence and personality.
A landfill 1x1x1 km can contain the entire waste the US produces in 3 years. A small patch of land 100x100 km has enough space to keep trash for 30,000 years.

Good coverage of the topic in the first three minutes of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9iab0z6Kyg
Interestingly enough, CO2g per W of energy is considered much higher (4 times?) for PV than for nuclear, at least in common statistics used to evaluate power plant emissions (12 gCO2eq/kWh for nuclear, 11g for wind, 24g for hydro and 45g for solar - source:IPCC2014).

Most nuclear waste can be reprocessed and burned further down (that's the strategy that was used by France). A big issue with that is the effective voiding of non-proliferation treaty by, among other, USA - nothing scares them more than a country running plutonium economy, thus proposals of designs with remote kill switches operated by USA and other imperialistic moves like it.
In the UK you can get a SIM for free from most networks as pay-as-you-go (i.e. you add credit to it instead of getting a monthly bill). With most of those you can happily receive messages on it without ever spending a penny.
One interesting thought that people I talk to consistently didn't think about (myself included) is that any person who gets their genes edited is faced with an ethical dilemma of whether or not they should procreate, as any changes are then essentially mutations that are permanently introduced to the human genome. Even if the interactions with every other gene are understood, do we know what this will effect in the future? What about every other possible genetic interaction? Evolution?

I don't know if this is examined in the article, I could only read the first few paragraphs.
Not really. If someone will be able to tamper the device and submit conflicting transactions then this will just split the network. This will be seen and just ruin the network. He can't print additional money in this way.
I don't think you need to look much further than the ridiculous analysis of quarterly earnings to support that idea.
Ah yes, the panel icon. This makes a lot of sense, thank you! My os is _heavily_ customized (i3 + wmctrl + heavy scripting), so I forget sometimes what the standard floating-window workflow looks like and how difficult it can make it to manage and quickly access important windows/tabs.
> Learn new things, don't stick with the boring tech

If you had a choice, isn't it better to build cool stuff with boring technology instead of building boring stuff with cool technology?

I think his point was to focus more on the product not on technology, and by choosing a boring technology you will likely have more time and fewer problems shipping awesome products.
The overlays generally encompassed only the top row of the keyboard (which is an island) right? So they indexed the top row and the row immediately below. At least those are the kind I remember and are easy to find on Google images. Or were there also larger/full keyboard overlays that made use of the other gutters between islands of keys?

Also, I remember these for the Model M keyboard layout. What other standard keyboard layouts were popular for the cardboard guides?
This isn't true. Nvidia is using TSMC right now for all of the compute products, e.g., see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampere_(microarchitecture)

> TSMC's 7 nm FinFET process for A100

> Custom version of Samsung's 8nm process (8N) for the GeForce 30 series[8]

That is, NVIDIA is using both, TSMC and Samsung. Both are probably maxed out.

It's likely they have other subtle differences too. That doesn't mean they can't be worked around.

If you follow this topic, it has been clear that FB and Twitter do not want to be the decider of truth.

They want to be a utility for communication. They would much prefer government decide it.

But many people are like "government being the decider of truth" is bad.

So this is where we are at; the private companies can ban whomever it wants and play the decider of truth.
Perhaps just annotate each comment with how many minutes between clicking the link and making the comment (similar to the green usernames)

Interesting take, could definitely happen.

Regarding the rate - LTCG depends on ordinary income level. The 2020 rate for someone earning $150k was 15%, so the $10 million exit in the author’s example would be taxed accordingly. Unless I’m missing something here?
Of course not. Make improvements rather than knowingly shove-in bad Ducommun parts on the line or crappy MCAS. Also, hold manufacturers responsible when they take cost-shortcuts, sacrifice safety, and kill people. Boeing routinely gets a slap for doing so since it's also considered a strategic defense contractor, part of the MIC that greases palms in DC.

At least some consoles are sold at a loss to keep the entry cost within an acceptable range and expect to recoup that from game sales.

Yes, the author captures this in their analysis as a risk variable.
I'm aware that Windows User Access Control blocks the Companion installer - sadly I don't have a way to fix this at the moment. I would need to sign the installer exe with a code signing certificate that is trusted by Windows, and this costs hundreds of dollars. I can't afford this.

As for the usage stats: if enabled, it sends data to Google Analytics, stuff like how many people installed it, how many people used X or Y feature. It really only exist to help me track how people use it.

It is of course completely up to you if you want to disable it - but as with any product, usage stats just help developers make the product better.
