“ In fact, the Data for Progress poll found H.R. 1—also known as the For the People Act—has broad public support. More than two-thirds of likely voters (68 percent) said they would back the proposal. Just 16 percent said they opposed it.

The support also transcended party lines, with 70 percent of Democrats, 68 percent of independent or third-party voters and 57 percent of Republican voters expressing approval for the bill.”

Except all the left voted for it and all the right voted against it. You confuse and underestimate the impact of a minority party’s ability to maintain control via gerrymandering, wealthy election finding, voter suppression and an undemocratic Senate.

Show us the litany major issues 80% of citizens support that the left kneecaps.

Both sides do it is a trap.

I think it will continue to increase in value for while, as it continues to plumb the depths of “people who haven’t bought in yet”, but that’s eventually going to cap out, and eventually they’re going to run out of coins to mine, and people will catch on and the value (and interest in it) will fall through the floor.

> It seems to me that this justification is often raised in lieu of engaging with a deeply unpleasant subject.

I go exactly and completely the other way with that.

Engaging in discussions of rights. In this case whether its ok to arbitrarily deny access to a huge section of the market to a developer without explanation, recourse or anything remotely resembling due process. With rights it tends to be the other way around entirely. Hence the length and painstaking nature of my contributions to this thread.

"These people are awful, oppose them" And you look and they are awful so think no further about it. Don't engage at all beyond that.

As opposed to engaging with something that /is/ very deeply unpleasant and necessary. "Our rights are also the rights of people we greatly and deeply dislike because they turn our stomachs. If we are to have rights, these people we find reprehensible must have the same rights or they are not actually rights at all." Which led to me citing the example of Jewish lawyers at the ACLU with close proximity to the massive trauma of the holocaust defending rights they believed in _even_ when the test case was for Nazis. That's engaging very, very deeply with a very, very deeply unpleasant subject. And they did that and did it well despite the fact it must have been just horribly and deeply unpleasant having to explain that point of view to relatives who survived the holocaust and know what the insides of those death camps looked like when they were operational. Imagine doing it. Imagine explaining that.

So yeah, the exact opposite. Engaging deeply with rights is unpleasant. Throwing your hands up and saying "to hell with these idiots, I don't care, they're awful!" is not engaging at all. (And it is always a very tempting response that plays well to our emotions.)
The growth looks perfectly normal if you take into account the growth of the internet.
Sounds like your manager is a toxic person, who gaslights underlings, takes credit for their work, blames the worker for something they don't want to be accountable for.

I know a good number of people like these, and sadly they get promoted much quicker than everyone else. Its an archetype that survives and thrives in the corporate setting. The thing about this personality type is that they are incapable to seeing truths that will damage their ego in such a way that reveals themselves to be flawed or incorrect. To clarify, these people live by lies of self-deception - telling the "truth" to how they see the world, but clearly the world they speak from is false.

Best thing to do when you see this is to just leave. You wont get credit for anything good you did, you'll be scapegoated for everything that went wrong, and anything good that happens is because of them. The number one rule when dealing with these personality types is that they they are right even when they are unquestionably wrong, and that is one ship no self respecting person should be on.
What data sources have you got?

You can see here Tether’s 24 hour volume actually surpasses bitcoin. It’s used in ETH trading and elsewhere which is why its volume is larger.

For the 70% figure I’d have to dig a bit to fully check current volume. It’s been widely repeated in articles, they use data which check flows through exchanges.

Binance may have a bit less USDT than before?

Your blog post is, frankly, wrong. That's not what DI is usually used or understood to mean.
Same as every Clojure post.
This is a really good point. In my case, I'm not suggesting a price increase because it's trendy. I'm suggesting it because I've run a low-dollar SaaS for > 10 years and I can say from experience that it's easier to lower the price than to raise it. Start high and find an audience who value it enough to pay your price.

> I wouldn't pay more than $5/mo (or a $29 one time fee for something self-hosted)

And that's awesome for you, and the millions/billions of people like you. Likewise, I think Figma is expensive (but I'm not a designer!).

But the Internet is big! A new company doesn't need that many customers to do well. It's smart to choose customers who value more heavily the problem you're solving. That's why there's Shopify $360/year in perpetuity and Magento for $20k+ per year in perpetuity and self-hosted WooCommerce for no licensing fee. And they are all able to be successful. Customers that value your problem are also the type who will suggest valuable brand extensions in the future.

I got the impression that this product is marketed toward businesses. If that's the case, keep in mind that $15/mo or $25/mo or $45/mo are all psychologically in the same bucket as expenses go, for most businesses. Even most solo operators aren't price sensitive to $10/mo for a business tool they have decided they want. Choosing $15 instead of $45 could literally mean you're leaving 2/3 of the value on the table. That's value that could have gone into e.g. acquiring customers, which typically has some monetary cost. (Customer Acquisition Cost & Churn are two very real costs that people tend to ignore when modeling these businesses. $15/mo definitely covers the servers, but does it cover Churn?).

The point is to pick your niche and pricing and do it deliberately.

(Also, look at some pricing psychology as I think $15 is probably not optimal from that perspective either.)

ps -- I could write another few pages about how you get a better class of customers (more engaged, better feedback, more tolerant of bugs in a new app, lower churn, etc.) at higher price points, but that's another topic.
Heh, I found the opposite. JPA is one of the few parts of the ecosystem that actually work and deliver enough value to be worth it.
>Part of the answer I think is that you can lock up Tether at 12+% interest. So the system encourages withdrawing tethers from the system, at unsustainable savings rates.

I'm not convinced. Were these products around a few years ago when people were sounding the alarm bells about tether?

One thing from the N900 that I really miss on the Pro1 is the ability to multi-boot different operating systems. I think at one point I had five OS's running on my N900, mostly off of various microSD cards - Maemo, Android, Meego, SHR and Plasma Mobile. For the Pro1 I'd settle for being able to dual-boot Sailfish and LineageOS, but as it is now you need to pick one or the other.

Isn't it better to show the actual data, not what its analog product is?

Frankly, that approximation would be wrong in many cases, and would very significantly complicate the visual presentation as well as impact UX.

There is a lot of work here. Actual gains are marginal, risks quite high.

Those steps are the data being manipulated.

Displaying the product of the data only would be confusing in another direction.

So, both would be required.

That is where all the work is, and in terms of priority the case for this kind of thing is super weak, IMHO.

Seems to me you are framing this as a fix when it is not actually a problem.

It is an enhancement request.

While I agree with you, and learned about these things myself! I felt much better about a lot of concerns, but I must also say I find very little utility in a computed visualization of this kind.

It would be spiffy, but would add almost no real value.

it seems that a lot of cheaper CDROM drives position their laser by using a standard, imprecise DC-motor and using the laser tracking as feedback.

Besides cost, the track on an optical disc runs in a spiral, and thus the continuous motion of a DC motor is advantageous because the feedback loop is adjusting the linear velocity of the head instead of its absolute position, whereas a stepper motor would have to make discontinuous jumps. This helps tracking performance and decreases noise (both electrical and acoustical.)

Your comment resulted in such an endorphin rush in me, resulting in a brief but audible involuntary outburst.
The issue seems to miss the heart of the problem. We know GCC and Clang have both intended for some time to treat undefined behavior as an opportunity to do whatever they want. If we assume the loop doesn't halt, we can remove the RET instruction. If we assume it does halt then we can remove the loop. Clang's internal model at HEAD appears to be assuming both outcomes happen simultaneously, which is clearly a bug, but could also indicate some kind of deeper policy change surrounding the liberties which are taken with behaviors that are undefined according to the C standard.
One nice thing about the resistive screen is that it's pressure-sensitive.

I should also comment that ECL makes very compact binaries, and the runtime, which is a dynamic dependency is a single digit number of megabytes.

Contributing to it, by driving a semi truck that delivers all the crap and all the essentials that you and I buy, and thereby incentivizing all the climate destroying activities that produce all those products and their raw materials. All the clothes, bikes, cars, car parts, trucks, truck parts, diapers, food, beer, soda, spring water, medicine, books, computers, paper and plastic packaging (recyclable and not, recycled and not) et effing cetera.

Or, reducing it, by using many fewer gallons per freight-pound using one efficient and relatively pollution controlled diesel engine to haul up to 45,000 pounds of freight (and 35,000 pounds of truck plus empty trailer) rather than many smaller vehicles in many more trips.

Or both.

It's highly likely that the reliability of this service will be as good or better than AWS.

I have servers hosted in a similar quality datacenter with literally 9 years of uptime. It would be 10 but the customer shut down his services...

By the way, unless something has changed, you can't get more than 10gbps of throughput of a single tcp stream in those 100gbps setups...
No, it isn't. There's a reasonable belief that droplets from screaming could aerosolize and get spread to others on the ride. Given that, it makes sense to implement such a near zero cost measure that has literally no potential to harm anything or anyone.

Why is this so hard to understand?
>Nitpick, Cash was the “original chain” as the split happened because what became the BCH portion of the network declined to adopt a proposed update

AFAIK adopting segwit is a soft-fork (existing clients will continue to work, only miners need to update), but raising the block limit is a hard-fork (all clients need to update).
After a year of watching people do that and curves still going up, I am not particularly optimistic either.

The hypothesis doesn’t imply that large brains are necessary for any animal to hunt small fast prey. Cats are really fast and have great senses and built-in weapons and it was probably “easier for evolution” to improve the brain than to build cat-like senses and weapons from scratch.
Strong points... and this isn't the first time Microsoft has been in a position to dominate a market and fumbled it for one reason or another (they had a viable -- though expensive -- eReader LONG before the Kindle, they had smartphones with Windows CE before Blackberry...).

I have suspected for a couple years that JetBrains is an OBVIOUS acquisition target for Microsoft (if for no other reason than to deny them to Google). What is Amazon scooped up JetBrains, made all of the products free to AWS clients with a minimum monthly spend, and either acquired or forked GitLab to build a cohesive IDE/Source Control/CI-CD/Cloud Hosting package -- all with a single invoice?

All of that said, I don't think Microsoft is sufficiently organized to capitalize on the opportunity at hand.

People abuse LaTeX in similar ways. Not to mention that there are some awful examples in Lamport's book. I've dug up my 75% complete LaTeX book that I wrote while I was teaching LaTeX classes for TUG and I'm going to try to finish it in the next couple of months. I think a big part of what will make the book good is as much what's being left out as what's being included.
Yes, absolutely!

For starters we all need to stop sugar-coating the word "failure" and - at the same time - we need to accept failures as necessities in our quest to innovation and excellence.

Then, we need more storytelling about failures: blogging, articles, interviews, podcast and biographies too.

Failures should be celebrated. Failure News. We need more and more failures in order to achieve success faster and better.

I agree. This work is being done in a spirit of pure profit seeking. Even when the individual contributors have altruistic intentions they cannot help that they are part of a larger system which seeks to extract profit from their work. And I also agree that a world's fair would only succeed in highlighting our willingness to pour money into profitable benefit while turning a eye from the growing need in our society.

I really wish we could recenter our society on collective benefit with the financial aspect considered as one of many values involved.
It's a little complicated to see the key point, but what happens is:

* The loop in f1 guaranteed to overflow int i if it's executed, but that's undefined behavior.

* Compilers sometimes delete code with undefined behavior, since that's the most efficient possible implementation.

* Deleting undefined behavior leaves an empty function.

* (Bug?) Empty function gets optimized a way to completely nothing, not even "enter and then exit".
Edit: This comment explains the "missing exit" better. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26499110

* Bug: the empty function f1 gets an address anyway, but 0 code; which makes execution fall through to whatever's next; in this case, it's f2's implementation.

* So, calling f1 jumps to the address where f2 is, and f2 runs, which isn't what you want.

"Format your hard drive" just means that "call an arbitrary different function".

Based on the information from [1] we have something like this for both loops:

.LBB0_2:
eor x13, x9, x9, lsr #30 # 2 \* p1-6
mul x13, x13, x11 # 1 \* p5-6
eor x13, x13, x13, lsr #27 # 2 \* p1-6
mul x13, x13, x12 # 1 \* p5-6
eor x13, x13, x13, lsr #31 # 2 \* p1-6
str x13, [x0, x10, lsl #3] # 1 \* p7-8
add x13, x10, #2 # 1 \* p1-6
add x9, x9, x8 # 1 \* p1-6
mov x10, x13 # none
cmp x13, x1 #
b.lo .LBB0_2 # Fused into 1 \* p1-3
# Total: 11 uops

.LBB1_2:
mul x13, x9, x11 # 1 \* p5-6
umulh x14, x9, x11 # 1 \* p5-6
eor x13, x14, x13 # 1 \* p1-6
mul x14, x13, x12 # 1 \* p5-6
umulh x13, x13, x12 # 1 \* p5-6
eor x13, x13, x14 # 1 \* p1-6
str x13, [x0, x10, lsl #3] # 1 \* p7-8
add x13, x10, #2 # 1 \* p1-6
add x9, x9, x8 # 1 \* p1-6
mov x10, x13 # none
cmp x13, x1 #
b.lo .LBB1_2 # Fused into 1 \* p1-3
# Total: 10 uops

Purely based on number of uops, there's a slight win for wyhash, all other things being equal. However, I doubt that you're really getting one iteration per second here; there are 6 integer units, and even if you perfectly exploited instruction parallelism you're limited to 6 ALU instructions per cycle, which are less than the extent of either loop. It would be possible if the mul-umulh pairs are getting fused, which would bring it down to 8 uops per iteration.

Taking into account the port distribution, each iteration of wyhash involves 4 uops being dispatched to ports 5 and 6, which means you should be getting at least 2 cycles/iteration purely for the multiplications. If it's much lower than that, the whole multiplication being fused into a single port 5-6 uop might be right.

However I can neither confirm nor deny that the loops behave like that on the M1, as I don't have one.
