ish. at best. Hive achieved it's own legitimacy, substantiated itself.

but there's no way i'd make a grandiose claim about legitemizability in general, that this phoenix act is repeatable or cost free. this article feels.lile it argues too strongly for forces of cohesion that i don't think exist. right now blocks all have the ability to do whatever precisely because there is low cohesion, that they could just redefine & begin using the the alt system, but that freedom to redefine eeks out of systems, they solidify & set.

as an engineer I find that (the ever setting nature of social systems) horrific & wish very much for social rehcohesionability, re-structyring. vitalik's example is good to see. but it feels rare. very undependable. too often legacy & history have too strong a claim on legitemacy.
No configuration, curve or key-size would protect any of the asymmetric crypto mentioned in the book from quantum computing. You really have to switch to something mentioned in the post-quantum chapter.
Not just sick people. Videos showed how this was done on entire apartment buildings, if you happened to live in one you’re out of luck even if you didn’t get infected.
I send links to specific lines or chunks of code pretty much every day (using a similar VS Code plugin), usually to show an example of a pattern or show where / how a particular piece of logic is implemented. Or sometimes to give an idea of a possible home for a new piece of logic
If we could get heavy rock-moving equipment on the surface and blast through the lava, maybe we could find out. Or if we got lucky and landed a probe on a high spot that escaped the lava and found either fossils or artifacts. All that to say, not likely in our lifetimes.
There are techniques to containing runoff. They involve structural work, and they go to soil erosion, and other problems. They might be jobs-positive, which is helpful in the current economic times.

There is a similar problem close to the Great Barrier Reef, with the externality (for sugarcane farmers) of their runoff and the sensitivity of coral reefs to nutrient levels and turbidity.

I am unsure Eutrophic water at this scale can be remediated by mechanical means (as in, dealing with oxygenation issues in the lakes, not preventing runoff from reaching the lakes)
I guess it means more modern implementation (rust).
ripgrep is faster than grep, but there are some differences, not exactly the same flags, for example.
If you use grep on big files regularly it worth a try.
100% agree. It's buried so far down the story too. I didn't keep pace with all of the editorial activity Medium had undertaken, but the sentence "We tried to replicate the traditional model" really spells out everything you need to know.

Big validation for Substack and the author investment model.
Is there an open source example of the actor model in use, particularly in Go or Java?

It sounds pretty cool but I can't build the mental model of it without an example.
Maybe it wouldn't be as bad if the media didn't engage in an aggressive 24/7 bombardment compaign. I first noticed this when I was younger and the OJ Simpson thing happened - the news media broadcasted repeated footage of his SUV driving away from a zillion cop cars. We saw this during wartime, Saddam Hussein in 91. We saw this basically for the past 30 years at least via broadcast media and CNN. We see it during wars, but we also see it when media personalities are broadcast repeatedly due to a scandal or perhaps (like the useless Royal Family) due to some human interest thing. We see it on scary things -- the Murder Hornets have arrived. Avian flu is here. Etc. Is there a kernel of truth in some of those things? Sure. But my concern is the repetition and the cycling.

Now we see the mechanism at work in social media and online news media.

This is not new. It was called propaganda in WWI and WW2, and one tactic (this is discussed in Manufacturing Consent) is repetition. "Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth”. Except we can add to the American news media, perhaps a new, Repeat an image and it becomes numbing.

Should we report on mass shootings, on racist actions and everything else. Sure. But ask yourself, are we doing a service or a disservice with a relentless bombardment compaign. Does this affect mental health? Is this useful, productive for society? Have you ever obsessed over anything? Is the media tapping into a frailty?

No question it would not make sense in that original 4K or even 8K BASIC, but MS produced BASICs with much larger memory budget and the matrix ops never appeared (as far as I know).
Interesting that it's written in typescript and the readme doesn't mention using it with typescript. I ran into annoyances with this recently trying out nodes worker threads in a typescript project. I was running with ts-node, but the worker thread didn't know how to load a typescript file. There are some workarounds but they're not elegant.
Games also care heavily about data layout, which you can't really do in a GC'd language very well. Well, game engines care heavily about that, anyway. Pooling objects doesn't get you there.

I don't care in the least if someone makes more money than me. Good for them. But if they make significantly more than me and yet pay a significantly lower effective tax rate than I do, well then I get a bit annoyed.

is buying a gun legally and shooting youself/people with it *as easy as* "buying a gun illegally, or use a knife, a homemade pipe bomb, a vehicle"?

Mass stabbing? Not a thing. Suicice with a knife? Any idiot knows that it'll be much more painful than a bullet in the head, so they'd think (more than) twice a about that, as opposed to a gun, just pull the trigger and be done with it.

How did you even type that comment with a straight face?

From who? Media outlets aren't stationed and positioned in war zones, nor are they the people who generally keep war an honest practice. When I was in Afghanistan they'd usually visit for a bit, get some footage and leave. Usually it's civilians and service members, occasionally the military's own documentation of war that would expose "war crimes".
True, but humans prior made heroic effort to help those in need. E.g. British oppression resulted in the Irish potato famine. Letters and written communication describing the desolation inspired millions around the world to help.

Also depends on the journal; some have the most impactful author stated last.
There is an idea I've been playing with for years that I think would be useful in this sort of situation, though sadly I think its a bit too clever to get traction amongst not-nerds.

In the webcomic Digger[1], one of the main characters is an exiled hyena. I'm a bit lazy right now to go digging through the archive for the exact panels that explain the situation[2], but there's a twist on just plain exile. The character's name was "eaten". This is expanded on a bit more in the comic if you're in the mood for an archive binge, but the key phrases are, "Name eaten, gone. It an it now, not a real person," "Of course it remembers [its name]. It remembers the rabbit it ate yesterday too, but rabbit still gone. Memory not life. Name eaten, dead, gone".

Someone who goes and massacres a church, school, theater, grocery store, in doing so has renounced their humanity. AFAICT, across all cultures in history, there's a fairly consistent group of things that are Shit What You Just Don't Fucking Do, and massacring a defenseless group of your fellows seems to fall under that heading. So you want to go shoot up a bunch of people? Okay, your name is eaten. May you die an unknown forgotten unperson, instead of the immortality the news grants to such killers now.

Like i said. I think it's a bit too clever to really catch on. But I do wish the news would stop granting a sort of immortality to people who commit such horrific acts.

This is a strictly "keep open" behavior, right? No connections are reestablished after being severed? I'm thinking about the implications for users who move on and off a VPN a lot.
The more time I live outside my homeland, the more I agree with the idea of pointing to George Washington to understand modern American society. I don't mean America in particular, but if you want to know why different cultures think differently, the only thing you have is their intellectual history, which changes (I think) surprisingly slowly.

I'm kind of in awe at this comment. Not for good reasons, but still.

In case anyone is wondering, no, zebra mussels are still bad. No one was claiming they wouldn't filter water, a feature of all mussels.

"So much for the experts, and alarmists." lol

I believe this is what Ian Danskin coined a "Shrodinger's Douchebag", someone who says dumb and harmful things, then decides if he was joking or not based on reaction.
It differs by research area. For example, the mathematics authorship convention is alphabetical. Computer science is by contribution.
This is such a hostile system. It keeps the market from clearing, both for jobs and for women. No wonder people drop out and play video games. I eventually got pushed past the fear of rejection when my failure-free factory job went sour, but my successful career since then shows it was a waste to put so much rejection in my way. The real world is Nintendo-hard, and that sucks.

It's easy to blame the media. But they do these things because we demand it. If they don't show it, we'll flip to the channel that does. The problem is all of us. It's our culture, and partly our human nature.
> [...] ultimately in this new era there is no path to redemption, no mechanism by which an apology can be accepted.

I'm pretty sure the mechanism is: backing down from your position of power, apologising, being quiet in the community, and finally reintegrating once you've shown that you've learned from your past mistakes. Prison is (ideally) a non-voluntary version of this, and many countries rely on prisons to rehabilitate people.

On a smaller scale, I've seen this happen in friend groups: friend does bad thing, everyone tells them they've done a bad thing and that they need to absorb that, friend disappears for a year or two, keeping in touch with some of the group, and when they return they have the people they stayed in touch with to vouch for their personal improvement. There's plenty of movies where this happens to the protagonist near the end (although usually the format mandates that their transformation takes less than a year).

> [...] RMS would rightly be considered a saintly figure for his contributions to the world.

Good people can do bad things; the best people improve from them (see the above movie-protagonist analogy). Returning someone to a position of power without adequate evidence that they've changed their ways means that they have no personal incentive to put in the effort and improve themselves - they can return to the status-quo, which means the people that were disadvantaged before remain so.

> No, the point is to exercise power, to show any straight white (or white-presenting) male that they are vulnerable, [...]

People do use power when they attempt to de-platform someone, but I don't think that it's being used here for the sake of it. This person has done some crummy things, and refusing him his position should be a wake-up call to him that he has misused the power he was trusted with (this is the "everyone tell them they've done a bad thing" step in the friend-group analogy). It would also prevent this person from misusing the position's power further.

Making people feel vulnerable might sound bad at first, but the alternative is that some people are invulnerable, which (to me) is a terrifying prospect. Being able to do anything with no social consequences would allow people to serially commit to doing horrible things, without ever losing their ability to continue doing them.

> [...] and to ensure that more and more of us hide our heads lest we be the tall blade of grass that gets the scythe.

I'm not totally sure how this metaphor works, with respect to what the length of a grass blade represents. If it represents how poorly the person treats women then the metaphor works, but doesn't really seem to support your rhetoric.
If you take something rather silly (lotteries) and donate some of the proceeds to a good cause (state lotteries supporting education) then that makes it more acceptable and respectable, and perhaps more likely to stick around, because people are less likely to turn against it. So, perhaps the same could be done with NFT’s?

But Vitalik says this more diplomatically than me.
Yep, I’m going to day trade these losers every day.

If we drop all of the things not useful to developers (or actively get in the way) I'm left with:

Logically, at least some of the 1500 ready made adons must do something that is hard to make yourself. The downside is that you have to pay and that writing things (not available in their app store) yourself might be hard to impossible.

They offer SEO tools which (I hear) are quite good. End of the day yours is just another shoppify shop which makes it hard to compete with others doing the same thing on the same platform. WooCommerce is argued to provide better results. I have no idea how a self made website compares.

Integration with accounting software, shipping providers and payment processors out of the box is kinda nice but one should be able to figure this out.

There are also hundreds (joking) of downsides that I'm not able to judge.

Overall it seems a good solution if your store isn't to small and isn't to big. It might be fun using it to buy time while you transition from small custom to a large custom solution.
A lot of the area is countryside and is to large extent ignored. Read articles on one-child policy, which was mostly followed in large cities only and resulted in millions of “extra” children growing up essentially outside of the system with no access to healthcare or education.

It seems plausible that infection stats from deep country are not faithfully reported or even collected. That said, what they did do is really complicate domestic travel, which means infections stay contained as a result.
> Soon people will realize that reality is often nuanced

Why do you think this is going to happen soon after 2021 and not any other time since homo sapiens developed language?

Obviously many things are different now, so your statement isn't a-priori implausible. But I guess I'm not feeling an overall societal trend towards accepting more nuance.
I wonder if this explains the occasional "Ghosts in the machine" behavior I've seen in Fiddler. Hoo boy.
This is often done at the 'finishing' level (I forget what it's technically called, if it is...), even if the cattle are pasture raised for the dominant portion of their lives. You should see these places. Horrific shitholes, literally; cows stand knee deep in their own excrement and I believe they're fed dominantly corn to fatten them up for a few weeks before going off to freezer camp. These kinds of places are on public display on Texas highways and interstates. Even if the ranches where they're raised are 40,000 acres, the places they go before they hit your table may be a whole new world.
If this type of BS bothers you, check out the Gemini protocol. Basically a very simple browser concept that cuts out all of the BS. No JavaScript, cookies, secret connections, ads, etc. It's mainly just a simplified markdown over TLS.

Because it's so simple, it is possible for any programmer to make their own client. Unike with web browsers which require you to basically implement an entire operating system. That means if you don't like something a client is doing, it's not a problem finding another good one.
And end government subsidized corn vis-à-vis ethanol production.
I'd rather pay capital gains tax on a 250k stock appreciation, than have my house appreciate by the same amount. It's just ordinary people don't have brokerage accounts that can appreciate by so much.
Corn ethanol is widely considered a 'renewable fuel' by those invested in the oil industry, since it allows them to keep more of their accumulated capital.

It's much less common amongst people who are attempting to improve the outcome of climate change, the people you seem to be tarring with this brush.
FWIW, I probably hate Slack more than anyone else on Hackernews (because everyone somehow seems to like it). Keep in mind I also don't use the Slack desktop app but I do use the Discord desktop app, so right away this isn't a fair comparison but I'll continue with my rant anyway.

I mainly just find the user-experience to be terrible. I hate how each server is separated as if it is it's own isolated website or something. On Discord, I can switch from server to server in a click easily.

Playing GTA? I can join the GTA Discord server. Playing League? I can join that one. It's all right there.

It's also the weird SSO Slack has going on that just seems broken. When I open up Discord, I have one account, I log in and have access to all other things in the account. Basic software behavior we're all used to.

When I open up Slack, it does or does not want me to login again based on if I've been on this server before. It may or may not want me to make a new account depending on if I've made one on this server before. I try all of my emails with all of my potential passwords to see if login works, if not new account time I guess? I'm never sure weather to use my work account or not. Sometimes the @domain matters, so this creates even more of a mess.

Then don't even get me started with a lack of usernames and having intentionally hard-to-find ID. Again, why not do what Discord does and do Username#6789? Instead I have to search my friend 'John Doe' and hope it's the John I'm thinking of and not some random other John that I just invited to see all my business's internal discussions.

It's still there, but I don't know if it works since it's been deprecated, but for Chrome, see: chrome://net-internals/#sockets

There's buttons there to close sockets and flush socket pools. I imagine this also means there's an API somewhere you could call from an extension.
I wonder what it would take to harvest Zebra mussels for something like cat food (I imagine they don't taste great). I think the shells are valuable in some respect as well.
