The artwork can be copied, but not the provenance. If the artist publishes address(es) from which authorized tokens are released, authenticity can easily be verified. A NFT purporting to have been created by them will not have been originally sent from an authorized address, as long as the artist's private key(s) have not been compromised. So whatever value is attached to the art having been created by that artist is lost, because it cannot be proven that it came from them.
I’ve baught the same kettle several times during more than 20 years years. Very durable design.

It's a lot of land to mow.
I can't find a reference, but I remember reading that at least once the when the Grimms were collecting oral tales they were given a retelling of a Hans Christian Andersen story.
I once saw a fascinating quote that went something like the following:

"As computing technology develops it becomes more efficient to take centralised computing resources and distribute them closer to the user. As network technology develops it becomes more efficient to centralise them again. Further advances redistribute and yet further advances recentralise. This pattern has been noticed several times in the history of computation."

And the most fascinating thing was that it was from decades ago, perhaps even 1960! I've never been able to find the quote again. Does anyone recognise it? Perhaps I imagined it.
The author did say that there is nothing that Rust does that C cannot. The difference is that in Rust, those things are easier, or many times, the default way, while in C, you would have to take care of way too many things to make sure things work.
Of course, but a work of digital art, which is what we are talking about, is not scarce. There are infinitely many exact copies of it and each copy costs nothing to produce. Anyone pretending that one of the copies is more authentic than the others are kidding themselves.
One of the express purposes of the satellite is to track agricultural activity, which by definition means it must be able to identify remote agricultural communities through e.g. forest clearance. That could be used to target ethnic minority settlements.
Sounds reasonable.

Many languages are self hosting (eg ClojureScript) so this is not a showstopper :)
They did not follow through because he failed to actually hire a hitman. He got scammed instead, which ironically saved him.

I encourage you to read the transcript in which he attempts to arrange the assassinations [1]. It is pretty obvious what he is doing.

To go back to the original point, though, I do not believe that his crimes make his ideas about social networks irrelevant.

I would suggest to seek professional help on this. Almost none of the commenters in this thread are actually qualified to answer.

Speaking from experience of a close friend though - PTSD can come about in different ways and not necessarily from one key event (e.g. it can be a result of prolonged abuse or bullying). Additionally if you have been emotionally or physically abused in childhood the level of tolerance for stress can be severely limited, exasperating the issue.

Good luck! Mental health issues suck :(

Fixed: The small car market basically doesn't exist in the USA.

There are a lot of small cars in European big cities as it is difficult to find parking space for an "american sized" car.

The sedans which Americans thinks of as "small car", we think of "too big car for the city".
I listen to the Chinatown Wars remix track that MF Doom did with Ghostface Killah.

I am not a psychiatrist however I grew up in the midst of conflict. It just doesn't sit right considering startup failure in the same context as individuals experiencing those they know being murdered...or the many other horrors people experience.

I do not say this to underplay the difficulty of tech failure. However, within that failure there is probably plenty of privilege. Opportunities that others could only dream.

You are trying to grow and learn from your experiences. Being at peace with yourself can be hard work. I did the leave my job, accelerator programme, back to the workplace journey. I think it's best not to frame your experiences in terms of PTSD. I think this may shape your understanding in a way which is overly negative. There's the old saying you may not see the wood for the trees. In your case I would say come to HN and talk about the trees you have experienced. Rather than try and give the wood a name.
Or, keeping it in a moisture-conditioned freezer. Or, ... That's it, that's the only impractical idea I had. Oh wait, water cooling!
The article somewhat leaves the matter open, but I think that's unfair. The guy may well have played chess when he was younger, but that he would be a world-class player despite being virtually unknown is the extraordinary claim here, and hence has the burden of proof.

As others have said the "explanations" are also comically weak. Playing against bots does not make you play like a bot, he's not the first player to practice chess against the computer.
Yes, there is that gap. My gut feeling is that it is as genetic as other components of intelligence, so I'd say don't worry about it too much.

Yes, absolutely you can learn. A lot. But I doubt you can cross the schism. I know it's an unpopular opinion.

I am on the tech side of the "schism". Anecdata is from observing how my and others' kids approached tech stuff.
He said it right there. If it has no possible military use, why did he even mention the military?

Nice bit of goal post rearrangement there, given an explicit direct quote in the article stating the satellite could have military applications. On what basis do you assert that Human Rights Watch are not capable of assessing the satellites capabilities and possible uses?
You seem deeply confused. Making perfect digital copies is not something that is prevented by blockchains. Computers make perfect digital copies. If you want to prevent people from making perfect digital copies you have to get rid of computers, and good luck with that!

I don't know, I'm not sure they are really solving something. Local residents can probably rely on public transports/walking/cycling to move within the city. People from outside probably need a car to reach the city itself, but if you can't use those low powered cars on high speed roads then there's no point in having one. Better a "full" car that gets you to a public transports node on the edge of the city and then you switch.
I believe that design should be done in such a way that no matter your background you can still use the tool without having to spend more time learning then actually using the tool.
Have a browse on /r/iPod. People love the iPod classics and the earlier generations in particular are becoming collectors items.
I really hope to see some cheap 6800xt's on eBay soon.
I also think perhaps we over estimate how "digital" CD playback is.

I repaired a CD player recently and learned that the control system which guides and powers the laser is entirely analogue. Only the audio pickup was a digital signal.

I'm sure designs vary, but it made a great deal of sense when you consider a design from the 70s and 80s.

A CD is digital, but a CD _player_ is a surprisingly analogue device.
"So is there a court that can take the arguments from the scholar on behalf of the people, and the arguments from the military, and make a ruling?"
NO.
They wouldn't be in the current situation if they had strong functioning independent institutions.
After I been watching a ton of videos about retro-computing, mostly C64 and Amiga, I've been wondering if it would be possible to remake the custom Commodore/MOS chips. You can't get the original schematic and masks obviously, but the chips are pretty big by modern standards. Surely you could send a functional chip to China and have it reverse engineered.

You also don't need 5nm processing nodes to remake them, even a 130nm would be an improvement, and I have the feeling that even on 40nm there would be ample fabs able to make them.

It's probably more difficult than I imagine, and less efficient than just replacing the whole system with a FPGA.
RDB is fantastic, I’m using it today.
Yup, I cancelled Netflix when they started pruning their cataglogue and pushing their own shows, which I didn't think were as good as the shows they had retired. They also started pushing their own commercials and made it harder and harder to avoid the annoying trailers. If they want to become a tv channel that's fine, but the value isn't there for me.
I've never owned a kettle that proved to be a problem. I think I've owned about two kettles in total. Yay Capitalism.

This is great and overdue. Hopefully all major browsers will add some support for open source/royalty free codecs.

Emscripten/WebAssembly actually worked rather well with audio (OPUS is just awesome) but when it comes to video it's just unfeasible, especially if you are looking at doing low latency streaming. That said, I cannot fail to mention the incredible effort done by ogv.js [1] to make a/v decoding possible almost anywhere.

Looking forward to experiment with this new API.

Democracy is important to me, and therefore republics that have limits to maintain it. If killing a leader who increases his power within a republic is a problem for you then you value a world where democracy for one generation can choose dictators for the next. That is a world that can't maintain democracy.
The very short version:

There are many things which cause both frequent and rare strange crashes in multi-threaded code.

In C, all these things will compile OK.
In safe Rust, practically none of them will compile.

It is much easier to fix compile issues in Rust to do with dangerous memory usage or thread sharing than it is to debug a compiled program.
back in the 1980s americans were able to buy cars cheaper because the manufacturers were not required to install all the added safety features that we have today...back then the gas mileage was better too because the cars were lighter...then some corporate lobbies got congress to force manufacturers to add safety features...the prices of cars went up...the weight of cars went up, and the gas mileage went down...

what corporate lobby did that? Oil companies, perhaps....and as a result americans are forced to spend more on cars and more on gas than citizens of free nations...

some might say we are lucky to have the government looking out for us....but I would not say that...

>Catharsis is a perfectly valid reason to do something
Yes, /b/, /pol/ and /g/ agree completely. Like I said, you'd fit in there- the emotional zealotry, the insults, you're a 4chan poster in spirit already.

>Almost like people can have strong opinions without having to resort to calling others 'soydevs' and 'suburban white women'.

I'd take being called a soydev or a suburban white woman over being called a shithead or being compared to pedophiles, thanks! Are those really the most horrible words you can accuse me of using...? They seem pretty tame.

I'm not here to convert either, and I leave filled with a sense of relief that you aren't able to more strongly impose your will on the world and others.

Again, you view those culturally/politically opposed to you as a monolith, and so lump people together who don't fit together, like a southerner saying all muslims are terrorists. There's a difference between your local imam and an al-qaeda follower who murders a bunch of people, and in the same way there's a difference between LS and and the christchurch shooter. Lumping them together is inaccurate, and if you think the latter is a pipeline to the former, well, 'islamophobe' is a word. I guess 'chanophobe' is next...
If you have limited design needs and a small but actual budget, you can hire a designer on Upwork at a normal western hourly rate to design your logos and collateral.

You'll need to wade through proposals to find someone good, but this worked really well for us.

I don't recommend fiverr or the like. When you pay almost nothing, it's too likely that you will get plagiarized designs. Pay someone for a day or two of real work. It's worth it for your company.
He was not convicted, but it's pretty plain to see that he did it.

Fortunately, the people he hired for the assassinations were really just scam artists who conned him out of some money. The prosecution decided that it would not be worth it for the state to pursue murder charges in such an unprecedented scenario.

On the other hand, the assassination attempt was taken into account by the judge for sentencing.
Came to recommend the same one. My first one stopped working after a decade, now been on the second one for six years. (The "stopped working" thing is not ideal, but given the constant use, also not a dealbreaker for an electrical appliance.) I most like it for the big ... 'spout'? that allows filling it without needing the lift the lid.

I do remember it being the only decent option in the store. I guess other people have other priorities in kettles, for all those other models to stick around?
Presents. One new for myself.
Edit: Two actually. Retired one after about 10 years for safety reasons. Still have it as a backup.
You can also find a designer on dribbble or behance. But it takes time since some of them are not interested or busy. The overall design quality is good for these 2 platforms.

Some bad fiverr designers copy the previous work from other good designers. So it might not be trustworthy. You have to do some reference checks.

I also hired a uk designer on a subreddit for hire. Price and quality are ok. Just not excellent
I'm writing my own 3D MMO engine from scratch, so it does matter to me: http://talk.binarytask.com/task?id=5959519327505901449

Unity and Unreal are so bad. I mean compile for 30 minutes? To use them is to have technical debt way beyond what is healthy.

So why can't you make OpenGL stateless? It seems to me multithreading is really bad on the new APIs too, you'll have to trash memory with a bunch of buffers that then gets submitted by one thread causing motion to photon latency!

RdR2 had like 10 frames of lag! Completely unplayable.

I prefer direct/forward rendering one one thread and make the graphics simpler instead. Graphical fidelity is not important to make a fun game, just look at Nintendo.
You are right! IMHO RDB is a good piece of software. I'm using it on one side project and it is working good for all my needs
I like the stroke on the lowercase l. IMHO every good typeface should clearly distinguish between l and I.
Pot calls kettle black.

Google has probably done more of this single handedly since the advent of Chrome than Microsoft has.

Not that I’m absolving MS of any wrongdoing either, but google has definitely been far more malicious, and for them to pretend otherwise is unscrupulous at best.
One thing to note about the `RETURNING` clause is that it can't be used in subqueries[0] or CTEs. One thing I do with Postgres is using multiple CTEs with `RETURNING` clauses to have a query with many steps, without having to open a transaction and doing many queries. The SQLite documentation says it's something that they want to implement. Having that would be very nice. We could do complex queries all at once without having to lock the DB during the whole transaction.

I believe the same problem exists with another kitchen appliance: toasters.

Is there a single toaster able to consistently toast bread to the same level each time? The technology must exist.
Funny, I've spent entirely too much on the one I have in the US because it has a temperature control. I want my tea and coffee at hot, but below boiling so it doesn't wreck my mouth. He calls it a bonus but it's the one feature I actually care about.
I grown up in communism. It was impossible to buy stainless steel kettle. Our industry simply could not produce that material, and borders were closed. Today it is recommended not to buy cheap kettles from communist asia, it may contain poisonous bromine.

Today I just use dumb kettle on induction stove. Never breaks and saves space.
Check out www.designjoy.co. They do all kinds of design (including logo, website, business cards, etc.) and have a very interesting business model that might fit your needs.

I am not affiliated with them in any way but it's the first thing that came to mind because I read a lot about their success as the founder often shares his/hers experience of building a design agency on IndieHackers.
Several times over the course of 20 years is not that bad. I'm guessing he wouldn't be buying it every 2 years (like common appliances that break apart right after guarantee period).
Well the one I use currently I think falls on the category of "disco lights" though it doesn't bother me at night

There was probably a reason why that kettle went out of production, maybe it was related to the defect you had, who knows

Limescale filter? Use a jug filter before putting the water on the kettle. No limescale and much better taste.
You are mistaking parallelism for concurrency.
>>Without the existence of a state enforcing said property rights by threat of monopolized, any sorry of land "ownership" beyond physical occupation is meaningless.

Then by your standards, a state would be just as artificial. Without the existence of a sufficient number of individuals capable and invested in engaging in violence for the defense of property, any concept of a state would be just that: a concept. An imaginary plaything. Enforcement of property rights can only come from people, not papers or buildings. And since a people precede a state, so to do their rights to own property.

>> There would be nothing stopping someone else from inhabiting "your" land unless your able and willing to infringe on their rights to life and liberty.

You're contradicting yourself. If one owns land, no one else has any right to life or liberty with respect to it. In other words, your rights end where mine begin.

Proof of this is the fact that (contiguous) United States isn't bordered by Mexican Gulf, the Pacific Ocean, and the 49th parallel because nature or belief willed it. It's there because people physically occupied territory long enough to obtain legitimacy, people purchased other colonial territories (i.e Alaska, Colonial Louisiana), or people negotiated treaties that says they owns certain areas. None of this is any different from how ordinary people obtain or historically obtained ownership despite your claim of insufficiency in their case. If that's so, what makes it be inherently different for a so-called state?

Nothing stops Canada from invading a la 1812 except for pieces of paper that merely claim it "can't". Canada chooses not to, not because it lacks a dedicated army with sufficient capability to capture some land, but because because it obtains benefits from an alliance and because provoking a potential retaliatory occupation by it's nearest neighbor isn't currently in the country's personal interest as a result of what violence would likely ensue.

Ownership is not a power that comes with the prima facie existence of a state. It's not even granted. Individuals have those rights to begin with. It is the exercise of those rights to pursue either agreement or defense that demonstrate ownership.

Serious question - does anyone at all still liking Google?
> authenticity can easily be verified

Authenticity of what? What does it mean for a JPEG of some work of digital art to be authentic? As long as it is bit-by-bit identical to the original, authenticity (whatever it means) makes absolutely no difference.
Sure, but then your comparing apples and oranges. If you take a 4k stream and turn it into 80x25 resolution (ok, its not exactly that) its of course going to be smaller. But if you compare the same resolution, the one using a video codec is going to be smaller. Even uncompressed its going to be smaller in a raw video format compared to text based escape codes (although i dont know what gzip would do compared to uncompressed video)
Good advice. Also don’t start doing this tomorrow. Do it today. I know at least three people now who have pushed off everything to next week for years and ended up with irreversible bad health outcomes.

Similar Philips story for me - had several pairs of SHP2000 (and HP200, which is basically an earlier model nr for the same exact headphones) over the last 20+ years. They're comfy, sound great for their price and the quality hasn't become worse over the years.
The US Federal Government allowed Perdue Pharma to ravage the US with a corrupt OxyContin prescription system?

Sure he was a drug dealer, but if you’re that holier-than-thou the attitude should extend to the whole pharmaceutical industry who are just drug dealers in white coats a lot of the time.
Once a product is good and sells well, all the incentive goes to aggressively reducing costs (and thus making the product worse) and making sure that no other good products appear. A stable state of this situation is that every company is making low-quality products.
