You think that proof of work mining was the initial philosophy of Ethereum? It’s the exact opposite. Ethereum was always intended to be proof of stake, they just couldn’t get it shipped in time to launch, and then the schedule slipped a bunch more.

It would be helpful to see the prompt structure used for gpt-3: state of the art prompting methods do significantly better than naive ones, and randomness and other settings can make a big difference in quality as well.

There are also cyclical prompt methods which can help derandomize gpt3, for example, you could generate three to five answers per question then feed the set back to gpt-3 and ask it which is the most correct; the first round would use high randomness settings the last very low.

My own experience is that you sort of have to work with gpt3 to get on the same page sometimes, and when you do the results can be remarkable.

Anyway, fun idea!

After a few years, I realize that by default comments are interpreted as disagreement, so for this kind of comments I start my reply with "I agree" or "Just nitpicking".

> Governance of any cryptocurrency is extremely touchy subject and one thing you don’t want to do is setting a precedent for making a controversial change

This got me thinking. How likely is it that, if and when crypto grows into a significant financial sector, the actual government will take over the governance.

It seems likely that the public (or their representatives) will grow increasingly uneasy with such an important matter being handled by random internet people and foundations. Especially if these institutions are not willing to include themselves into other policy making processes.

I believe that sooner rather than later effective control will be wrestled away from people like Vitalik, through laws and regulations.

> There are other kinds of concurrency bugs, such as poor use of locking primitives causing higher-level logical race conditions or deadlocks, and Rust can't eliminate them, but they're usually easier to diagnose and fix.

Which is why so many people are creating formal verification languages and spending years in research to fix those ... That just isn't true. It's a very complex problem that is an issue in both hardware (cache-coherency protocols) to OS (atomics locks) to higher level construct (commit-rollback in databases).

Consequently

> But the biggest potential is in ability to fearlessly parallelize majority of Rust code, even when the equivalent C code would be too risky to parallelize. In this aspect Rust is a much more mature language than C.

This couldn't be more wrong either. Rust doesn't help you write synchronization primitives safely because it doesn't handle synchronization like locks, condition variables or atomics. You need formal verification to be fearless.
> My overall feeling is that if I could spend infinite time and effort, my C programs would be as fast or faster than Rust, because theoretically there's nothing C can't do that Rust can.

The exact same argument applies to assembly code. There are very good reasons that it's not used nowadays except in incredibly rare circumstances or in the embedded world.

It doesn't matter in the slightest how fast your language is in theory. Not one iota.

The only thing that matters is how fast the programs you write with it are in practice. The evidence is clear: it is significantly easier to write faster programs in Rust than it is in C, and this applies to even the most skilled developers.

> I am the founder of a cyber security startup in Germany and we are at a point where our website is getting more and more traffic and customers start to ask for business cards to refer our services to other businesses.

This statement leads me to believe that you are primarily handling local business clients, in which case I would suggest looking for a designer in your area who is familiar with the professional standards of your region. The end result needs to reflect your client's expectations so they have confidence in your services rather than establishing a generic brand.

The best approach is to ask people you know who they used. If that fails, contact local print houses and web design firms and ask to look at their portfolio.

Seeing the original EGA graphics gave me a wave of nostalgia I wasn't prepared for. The first time I saw an EGA screen was at Radio Shack, setting up a Tandy 1000 system on the sales floor. Having only ever used a television as a computer display I was absolutely blown away by the clarity of the screen. I ended up using my employee discount to purchase a Tandy 1000 TX and hacking some weird CRT connection together to get the Tandy 16 color CGA working in time for college. Couldn't afford EGA at the time but I eventually moved up to a Trident VGA adapter when I had saved enough. I sort of left gaming behind after Doom and Goldenaxe but the early 90s was a fun time.

70% of all human trafficking is for forced and exploitative labor.

Lets take an example. 30 workers get transported over the border as seasonal workers to work at a farm. They live in small building without heating or running water, and barely have enough food. 3 months goes by and they have still not get paid, and when food stop arriving they decide to go to the police.

The owner of the farm claim innocence, as they simply hired contractors. There is even a ongoing legal case between the farm owner and this contractor because the work has been less than what was agreed and paid. The farm owner has been living in a different country for this whole period and never seen the workers, and the pickup for the produce was handled by a different contractor.

The police now have 30 unknown persons from multiple countries and without passports. The workers want to get their pay, and also food and shelter. They are do not want to get sent back home with nothing. The police will now have to do a lot of hard work, social service will have to address the humanitarian situation, and the criminals are very unlikely to be caught, fined and sentenced. It will cost a lot of money and resources for the government, with nothing that they can use political to show for it.

Under the laws I live on, this is human trafficking. There are an unlimited amount of variation this, but the key aspects are exploration under coercion, abduction, fraud, and deception. There are those that like to think the problem is just a few missing documents, but in practice there are victims being coerced and forced into doing dangerous work with little or no pay, and then treated with disinterest by the rest of society.

Code 'bloat' is a bizarre metric to use for anything unless you're on a platform with incredibly constrained executable memory like an embedded device.

The fact that Rust specialises its generic code according to the type it's used with it not some inherent disadvantage of generics. That's what they're supposed to do. By choosing to not specialise, you're actively making the decision to make your code slower. Rust has mechanisms for avoiding generic specialisation. They're called trait objects and they work brilliantly.

When you use void* in your data structures in C, you're not winning anything when compared to Rust. You're just producing slower code that mimics the behaviour of Rust's trait objects, but more dangerously.

Code 'bloat' (otherwise known as 'specialising your code correctly to make it run faster') is not a reason to not use Rust in 2021, so please stop pretending that it is.
This isn't strictly true.

The protocol ensures that there is on average a block produced every 10 minutes.

As hash rates increase, and blocks are found slightly faster, the difficulty is adjusted upwards to ensure that the 1 block per 10 minutes is maintained.

We've seen difficulty drop in the past, it doesn't necessarily rise forever. It only makes sense to increase when it's still profitable to mine at the current difficulty.

If the difficulty rises to a certain level and the price falls, and it becomes unprofitable to mine for some miners, they switch off their rigs and the difficulty adjusts downwards after a period of time to compensate.

Over the years we have seen the price rise and hash optimizations made, which have both driven the difficulty upwards.

Ask HN: Texts to share with my co-founder re time-management and teamwork?
tldr; Looking for articles or books about teamwork and time-management between founders in a startup environment to share with my co-founder who has never worked in a team or in any structured job in his life.

The business is physical business with production facilities, that exists for 6-7 years. During this time it hasn't grown but has always supported its owner financially. I've always helped a little bit with communication and marketing but not too much because there was lack of execution on the other side.
Last year we agreed that together we can make this thing grow and I joined as partner.

His profile: for his whole life he was always a business owner, mostly in production and printing. Loves making things with his hands, hobbyist woodworker. Not very digital - has a smartphone but you can't get him on a team discord for example. Lacks any organisation skills which is always compensated by the people he hires.

My profile: 17 years of digital communications & martech. Worked in corporations, NGOs and startups. Started & failed a few businesses, always with a partner, never alone.

The issue that I have is that my work experience makes me expect certain things to be true - that we all have a common agreement on how things work, how we manage our time and mutual tasks, how we sync priorities and so on. And in this case I am always hitting a stone.
My first reactions were a little bit patronising, where I go into "explain management" mode and although I am getting some things through I feel that it is not an effective method cause it is slow and also external for him, leaving the agency and responsibility to me.

So I am looking for something that would describe the co-founder dynamics, co-management, syncing, time-management and so on. I want to just give it to him as a recommended read and then we will have some basis on which to build and discuss, an external authority and structure of things, that is better than my own experience.

(Edit: the intention of giving a text is establishing a common ground of basic terminology and knowledge on the topic/s over which then we can have conversations and sync our intentions. My problem until now hasn't been so much total denial for cooperation but more of a lack of common language to facilitate this.
So, no - giving him something to read would not be accepted as patronising, he would gladly accept. The alternative is long lectures from me and I don't think I am so well prepared or structured.)

Erlang has a great concurrency model with higher overhead than Rust, but similar cross thread safety, doesn’t do anything about exterior resources to the application.

I’ve not worked with Coyote, but if it is the system for .net, it describes itself as a framework, “Coyote provides developers a programming framework for confidently building reliable asynchronous software on the .NET platform”.

Orleans similarly describes itself as a framework, “Orleans is a cross-platform software framework for building scalable and robust distributed interactive applications based on the .NET Framework.”

Rust is a language, similar frameworks are being built with it, the point your making does not appear to be about the language.
I agree with your math, but that doesn’t address my point. What I’m saying is that the relative value of eth to usd (for example) matters. The validators don’t want to get slashed and the more value eth has, the less likely validators are to misbehave (ie, the network is more secure). I’m not certain that it plays out that way but that’s the theory as I understand it.
Just lift weights 3-5 times a week and walk often (preferably on hilly terrain). You'll be fine. Don't worry too much...that could be worse than lack of exercise.

Do you have more information? The only issue I've heard about puberty blockers is a slight reduction in bone density over extended usage which is apparently considered negligible. I'd be interested to read a paper or medical journal indicating otherwise.

EDIT: But also to answer your question - if you think a 10 year old child might be suffering from gender dysphoria but you decide to leave it 8 years to see how things turn out, you then have to spend an enormous amount of money undoing the puberty they went through and performing various surgeries (eg mastectomy).

However if you put that child on puberty blockers and give them therapy, it should become obvious very quickly if they're just faking it for attention and they can be taken off them again.

I am not sure I get your drift, as your post prompted some questions: What's the motivation for developing a theory that replicates MOND's predictions? Isn't the goal of science to produce theories that predict or explain what is observed? And if original MOND did not go so far as to be an actual theory of gravity, what predictions was it making?

My guess is that your point here is something like this: MOND did not start as a specific theory, but perhaps something more like a principle, or a question along the lines of "can the anomaly in galaxy rotation be explained without introducing a new type of matter?" (Though by the time I heard of MOND, it took the form of a specific proposal that made specific predictions.)

If this was any other topic than gravity - electrodynamics, for example - the introduction of extra fields, would, I believe, automatically imply additional particles, but I suppose that, without a quantum theory of gravity, this is not necessarily the case here.

So, one can certainly say that modified gravity too could have a path dependence that leads to the delocalization observed in cases like the Bullet Cluster, but MOND still needs a theory which predicts (or at least explains) those observations. This does not go away just because it is facing even greater challenges in getting the early universe right.

None of the above should be construed as a claim that dark matter exists. Also, the more relevant point that I made in the second paragraph of my original post here is independent of any of this, I think.
The ISS is not a communications satellite, escape velocity is lower than maximum closing velocity, and kinetic energy isn't momentum.

Of course you can make the statement true by changing everything it's about.
My main sound system is a Leak Delta 70 from the early 1970s. It was an absolute joy to work on and bring back to life, especially the turntable which is a rebadged Lenco with a wonderful drive system I'd never seen before. It uses an idler wheel (which is still the original, it hasn't perished like they often do in cheaper ones) on a cone-shaped rotor. The speed selector is a slide with little protrusions at 16, 33, 45, and 78 rpm which slides the idler wheel along the cone-shaped rotor. That means you can choose any speed between the common ones giving you pitch control way before that was common.

Despite being nearly half a century old and an uncommon design it was literally an afternoon to get it up and running again after it'd spent over a decade in my neighbour's garage. Ridiculously well made bit of kit.

I have a theory that fashion (set design, clothes, makeup, UX) progresses as fast as the audio/video media begins to show age. Pictures are clearly dated by the media itself, which means the contents of the pictures are also inevitably dated.

Fashion seemed to progress quickly during the 70s/80s and then begin to decelerate from the 90s onwards.

It is more difficult now to date recordings from the 90s based only the audio/video quality which means it takes longer before it "feels old".

Make it case-sensitive, case denoting which one of two stacks to use?

Curious: Does that make the language easier to use in any way? (“Easier” here being very relative of course)
You are correct. For this reason esolang community actually has defined a related concept called bounded-storage machine (BSM) [1]. C has a bounded memory but it can simulate an arbitrary large BSM by increasing memory and thus pointer size, so it is very close to (but not exactly) TC.

By comparison SSL has two axes of bounds (stack length bounds and number bounds), only one of which is useful for simulating an arbitrary large BSM. I would say it is also close to TC but less so than C, because you need number bounds proportional to the max memory of simulated BSM and it is much easier to hit number bounds than stack length bounds.

It's not that simple. While fully specializing everything wins microbenchmarks, as C++ has shown time and time again, it can easily lose performance in large applications. If fully specializing code saves a few branches in the hot loop, but also blows through all the L1i, it can easily be a huge net negative.

> Rust has mechanisms for avoiding generic specialisation. They're called trait objects and they work brilliantly.

As someone who uses a lot of rust, they are sort of the red-headed stepchild. As a minimum to make the properly usable, we need a way of passing one object with multiple different traits.
