I am not defined by Socrates or Plato. I dont think they define us as a civilization either, despite regular and persistent attempts of some people to claim so.

Socrates hated democracy, we are trying to be one. Socrates got executed and the further developments went without him.
From 650 to 550 BCE, Spartan arts were at their height, producing some of the most intricate and beautiful works of bronze, stone, wood, and ivory in the known world. The sculptors of Sparta were particularly well known for their works in bronze, capturing the essence of the form they chose to represent. They not only sculpted in Sparta, but branched out to Delphi and Olympia, bringing with them their skilled craftsmanship. In fact, Spartan bronzes were so highly regarded that they were given to other national leaders as gifts, thereby spreading over the known world.

Both .NET and Java did major mistakes at their v 1.0, by ignoring what other GC based languages were doing.

- Proper value types (Even .NET is only catching up since C# 7.0)

- AOT compilation alongside JIT (NGEN was just for startup and without optimizations, and on Java side only third parties)

- Seamless FFI with host OS (P/Invoke did better, JNI is finally getting a replacement)

Eiffel, CLU, Mesa/Cedar, Oberon linage, Modula-2+, Modula-3 were inspiration, but those capabilities were apparently considered not relevant enough, go figure.

Okay then let's compare Bitcoin to Monero. One of those is actively used as a trustless financial system because drug dealers absolutely need it to be trustless and private. The other one is a speculative bubble that is growing faster because there is no anchor to gauge the value by so people can do whatever they want with it even if it is stupid or unsustainable.

Before you say that drug dealers ceasing to use Bitcoin is a good thing..., it really says more about the ability to regulate Bitcoin and the ability to trace people than it says anything about the users of Bitcoin suddenly deciding they are law abiding. Secondly, drug dealers are forced, absolutely forced, to use your cryptocurrency, they are the few users that absolutely cannot do without cryptocurrency, at least not over the internet. Cash is still king, but only on the street. If the most "diehard" users of the cryptocurrency move on that is a signal that it will absolutely fail for all the "softcore" users who don't really need your cryptocurrency.
I ignored it because it is irrelevant. People's purchasing power isn't based on the stock market index, it is based on their income. Even a retiree who is net withdrawing... a 60% upwards move in the stock market doesn't mean that retiree has 60% more purchasing power this year.

Use some of your purchasing power on an economics book.
Here's a contrasting view, for balance: https://www.spartareconsidered.com/home.html

Since most of what we know of Sparta comes from non-Spartans who were either very much pro or very much against them, there's little chance we'll ever have a provably objective view of them.
> ...people are throwing their real dollars into the BTC market

Real dollars? This seems to suggest that USD currency is "real" while BTC is "not real". Exactly how does this rationale work in your mind? Why is a USD more "real" to you than a bitcoin? The latter involved real work (energy) to create, while the former was just invented by a politician (by QE) or a bank (by fractional reserve).

> ...otherwise they're victims of a scam.

What if I told you that maybe by using fiat currency you have been scammed all along for your whole life? Mind you, I still agree with you that NFTs are a scam, but not bitcoin.
The car does charge itself, maybe not at the rate you want it to. That doesn’t make it a scam.

Creator of the supplement Chris Cutler has used the scientific research of the penis brain in InstaHard supplements. According to InstaHard Male enhancement review, the pudendal and cavernous nerves are the two main nerves that are connected to our brain, and triggering these nerves will actually solve the problem of all types of erectile dysfunction.We did a lot of research about the product and did not find it to have any disadvantages when consumed, unlike some other drugs related to erectile dysfunction that cause heart problems. It is because all the Instahard ingredients are natural and safe to consume.

- Multiple implementations from various vendors

- More support for UNIX and mainframe flavours

- Given the multiple implementations, there are plenty of GC, JIT and tuning options to chose from

- .NET Core is the Python 3 of .NET world, not everything from .NET Framework is available or portable to non-Windows platforms

- Several JIT optimizations quite common in JVM world are only now coming to CLR, like dynamic rewrite of native code

Relating to op’s question It might be said that we perceive a rainbow ramp as a continuous thing. Hence it might work to visual a graduation in intensity. But from experience I can say that such maps are difficult to read. One problem is that a hue ramp has no terminals (such as black and white in the case of a lightness ramp).

There's no one cutoff or threshold at which hard drives die. SSDs have already made hard drives smaller than about 320GB completely uneconomical on a pure $/GB basis, and have killed off high-RPM hard drives. SSDs will continue to displace hard drives anywhere that performance or battery life matters.

You can break down drive costs somewhat into the fixed costs (SSD controller, or hard drive spindle motor and actuators) and the costs that vary with capacity (NAND or platters+heads). The fixed costs tend to be lower for SSDs (or at least SATA SSDs), and the variable costs are higher for SSDs because adding NAND is more expensive than another platter.

Hard drives smaller than several TB are no longer getting new technology (eg. you won't find a 2-platter helium drive), so whenever NAND gets cheaper the threshold capacity below which hard drives don't make sense moves upward.

For the near future, hard drive manufacturers have a clear path to outrun the capacities available from cheap SSDs. NAND flash gets you more bits per mm^2 than a hard drive platter, but platters are far cheaper per mm^2—enough to also be cheaper per bit. I think that relationship will still be true by the time hard drives are using bit-patterned media and 3D NAND is at several hundred layers.

Ultimately, it might make more sense to ask when we will see SSDs having taken over the former hard drive market with hard drives having moved entirely into the market traditionally occupied by tape.

I'm two years out of date on what's going on with IPFS, but assuming the core ideas didn't change: that Twitter comment is technically right, but with caveats.

IPFS, as a P2P system, only contains the files individual users are hosting. There's no fundamental obligation to rehost other people's content - but there are various incentive schemes[0]. The address itself is a hash of file contents, so if someone were to reupload the exact same (bit-level identical) file to IPFS again, it would appear on the network with the same hash. The limit to long-term availability of any given file is whether anyone who has it is willing to keep it in the network.

--

[0] - For one, IIRC, there was some automated caching/mirroring of the files you pull using an IPFS client (not IPFS->HTTP gateway), to ensure popular files will get mirrored around the network for a while. Secondly, the team also started developing FileCoin, whose purpose was to create a scheme in which people could get paid for putting their spare storage on the network, which would be used to replicate files on IPFS. I don't know if they managed to get it to work.

My interest in IPFS started to diminish after I saw the team getting very involved in cryptocurrency world. I only care about IPFS for the P2P, content-addressable storage layer - and they kept talking about things related to Ethereum. So I stopped paying attention.
It does not, unfortunately. Those flags or even the `setpts` filter are not even mentioned once in the whole book.

I'll accept using modulo as an argument when CPU manufacturers finally do the sane thing and make sure that x mod n is always a non-negative integer.
iPhones are popular because of a monolithic product that doesnt try and depart from the core brand and feel of the OS with manufacturer quirks (ie. Why Samsung and Huawei feel so different). Their marketing is very much the reason:

iPhones are pitched and priced to appeal to the highest social status possible, the rest bleeds down from there.

The percentage of people who buy iPhones specifically because of debated security benefits is substantially smaller. People who may have heard this but dont know/understand it will find it simply reinforces their existing preference for an iPhone on the earlier grounds.

IMHO alphabetical is much better if you already know what you want to do. I want to do Noise Reduction, I open the Effects menu and click on Noise Reduction, which I can find very quickly because it's alphabetical and I know the name. If it were sorted by category then I would have to know beforehand not just the name of the effect but also the category it's in, and from experience with other programs it can be pretty arbitrary/subjective/confusing to have to remember the plugin -> category mapping for every plugin I ever use. Otherwise I have to parse a bunch of categories and think "hmm, I wonder if they would put Noise Reduction in here..". Either way it's slower and more of a hassle.

Greenwashing is when you use something ecological to shape perception. The greenwasher does that one relatively cheap thing, and then can use it as a comeback.

Can you honestly say you believe that they're doing this out of sincere communal and ecological concern?

No, a straw man is taking a deliberately weak version of an argument and then attacking it.

I pointed out that Ted Cruz had made such attacks and was also trying to make money off it.

Googling for "cruz tweet seuss" will provide you with plenty of first hand information about Cruz' actions; McCarthy also beclowned himself over the issue. If you prefer to disbelieve 'a bunch' that's up to you.
“I can’t say for sure, but it is likely that he participated in all that,” says his grandson, Yvan Mbomo, who has formed a picture of his grandfather as a communist of such firm convictions that he put the fight for his ideals before his family’s safety and his own.

I guess we should celebrate that he was a fan of the right kind of murderous authoritarian ideology.

Tone and style makes the difference between criticism and the works of the Schreibtischtäter. It's a great German compound word from Schreibtisch (=desk) and Täter (=perpetrator). It's the person sitting at a desk, keeping their hands clean, writing to make others do the dirty work.
See it's weird - we've been referring to shipping the Terminal with Windows as "shipping in-box" ever since we started working on the Terminal two years ago, and none of us ever thought that sounded strange. Apparently, "shipping inbox" is a Microsoft-ism that's not as common externally.

I'm definitely learning from this and hopefully future announcements will be clearer (though, it's not like our team has anything else to ship with Windows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

The dutch iDeal system works like that. The merchant redirects you to your banking website where you can authorize the transaction, which tends to involve some 2-factor rigamarole, after which point the bank redirects you back to the merchant.

A more recent innovation is banks exposing this more directly to consumers. I can create a "payment request" in my banking app which generates an iDeal url which I can send by email/text/facebook/whatsapp/qr code/carrier pidgeon to someone who can then pay me. No exchange of account numbers required and the amount paid is deposited in your account within seconds.

So yes, an oauth-like flow definitely is the way to go. It's more secure and more convenient, which is a pretty unusual combination.
