You really need to clarify exactly what you're offering here, including information that will set expectations to your customers. A key missing information is the size of your team, which will directly impact confidence in your turnover time and sustainability of your business model.

I'm saying this because your pricing model is completely nuts. My gut feeling tells me it means one of two things:

- I should set my expectations very low. For that price you're either outsourcing most of the work or making heavy use of one-size-fits-all templates.

- You're working alone and don't sleep at all! This means the Diamond Unlimited pricing won't be worth it for a long time.

Either way, best of luck.
“Ok, maybe don’t call it unlimited then”
Why? It is unlimited. When I go to Chili’s and get unlimited soup and salad, my supply is constrained by how fast they want to bring it to my table.
Same thing here.
While CPU power theft via malware is a real issue, it in no way prevents Monero from working well.

It actually just adds more nodes to the network. And of the many forms of botnet malware, it seems one of the less harmful.
I work in the “traditional” media—software not journalism. Ad sales are only celebrated for the money they bring in. Any optimizations around that are only there because they serve to increase as revenues, like any readership analytics.

In my experience, and I can’t speak for them, but it appears to me the journalists, at least any of the ones I’ve worked with, do not care where that money comes from. I think they’d prefer if it all could come directly from readership. I think it would serve to be more validating in more than one way.

To that end I think proposing that journalists (as a single entity, no less) would decry the diminishing need for advertising in their industry without actually losing revenues is a bit of a loaded take.
The Kate Text Editor – 21.04 Feature Preview
The market rate for 400 MHz is $80 billion. There's only one industry with enough demand and revenue to justify that purchase price, which is mobile.

2.4GHz may be crowded, but it's nowhere near as bad as mobile where the demand for bandwidth has been doubling yearly for two decades.
Honestly it sounds like your worldview is the one skewed by experience. Having worked retail sales and tech support I don’t think there’s such a difference in the generations. I have millennial friends who are worse at troubleshooting tech problems than my parents. Some people “get it” and some don’t. I don’t think the year you were born has much to do with it.

My entire family eagerly and reasonably adopted technology. The first computer I owned was an old model given to me by one of my dad’s coworkers when he upgraded. He demanded I use it to learn something. He completely understood the benefit.

All of our family friends adopted technology in their own ways. All my classmates had access to technology on par with my own. It was widespread. Millennials were not in a financial position to bankroll the internet revolution. Boomers did that just because they were the right age at the right time.
The actionable thing is that we need to change how we respond to sensationalism. Tempered responses. You cannot remove the punishment without this. Removing any punishment is too vague and is no change. Before we had no response. Now we have too strong of a response. I'm suggesting we be more thoughtful before we determine the proper response. This depends on how we, as the general population, respond to sensationalism. As long as we still click on (through anger or celebration) these types of headlines they will still continue because there's major profit. It is a "pick your battles" response that I'm looking for.

Bitcoin is the reason we have Ethereum in the first place, so I'm not sure if your statement is fair. ICOs were a pump-and-dump fad. DeFi is proving to be useful and there are already DeFi projects coming up on Bitcoin (rsk, sovryn) and the jury is still out on NFTs.

GEB, and its rebuttal, Emperor's New Mind [1], are both fantastic books. Both are must reads regardless of one's views on AI (or approaches to AI).

I never bought Hofstadter's thesis -- am solidly in Penrose camp -- and find it interesting that Penrose went on to develop his thesis even further [2][3] while Hofstadter has not. That said, Hofstadter is clearly a far more engaging and talented writer, and in context of Symbolic AI, his book outshines (imho) Minsky's Society of Mind [4] (which I found rather underwhelming).

There is a mild sense of tragedy about Hofstadter. Something about massive early success..

Everything is run through 2 Digital Ocean droplets (one for the Next.js instance, and one for the Django REST server). I'm not a sysadmin by any means (I just followed a guide[1] online), but it seems to be working well enough.

All in (including the managed database) it's $65 / mo, which seems reasonable to me. (Could be even less, but I scaled up the droplets for this launch).

I wondered if it was GPT-generated but asking that seemed rude.
From my own casual investigations, Wheelock is considered a perfectly good textbook (particularly for people with lots of experience learning languages, e.g. grad students in the humanities), but also a bit "traditional," focusing more on learning grammatical rules and less on developing an intuition for the language. Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata is at the other, "immersion"-oriented end of the spectrum.

> I am of the opinion that all truckers (or people in the delivery profession) pee in bottles to save time, not just Amazon drivers.

What is your opinion based on? A hunch? Random number generator? Your star sign? Maybe your horoscope?

> Why is Amazon being singled out here?

That's a strawman, nobody is singling out this company. Everyone is talking about Amazon because they publicly denied this ever happens from an official account.

> How would you even change the compensation or penalty structure to account for this?

Oh I don't know, maybe... and I realize this idea is so far out there so please bear with me for a second, maybe institute mandatory 15 minute breaks every 2-3 hours into the delivery schedule? Crazy, I know.
This feels a lot like the kind of "enlightened anti-'AI'" opinion that's more in vogue in some circles.

I think if you're following the literature, there's a significant amount that's pointing to the above generalization capabilities that you're contending against because it may not seem likely from your personal experience.

If you were to look at your arguments, I think you're extending the idea of expert systems from the 90's and so on and using that to paint a picture of the entire research field of deep learning process today. What we have has the capabilities to not be bound by those things, just the long bootstrapping process takes time. But we're getting closer year by year, and it's more and more exciting along that front as time goes along.

As for experience, I am and have been a practicioner in this field for several years.

Some ISPs do it on a daily schedule. I know that the German Telekom rotates customer IPs every night at 01:45 AM, because a friend of mine is with them and that's the time when he drops from the video conference for a minute (if we stick around that long).
I guess this makes sense if you define “atheism” as “not obsessing over something” and “worship” as a synonym for “unhealthy obsession.” I take issue with those definitions, and also with the premise that an adult must have an unhealthy obsession over something.

What if I told you, I don’t believe in god, nor obsess over money or beauty. Oh, I guess I “worship” all things in moderation and healthy relationships.
The key question for FedCoin will be how the supply is managed.

If it's only an electronic USD, ok, useful but added value is rather little.

If, on the other hand there is a pre-defined supply curve/schedule that is out of the hands of the people who open the spigot wide at every hint of an economic downturn, it would really be a competitor to BTC.
Bitcoin transaction fees are pretty high as well
"Bitcoin has shown it is uninterested in being anything but digital gold."

That still makes it very relevant here. Bitcoin is the reserve, while Eth is the settlement layer.
> Is NPM really keeping you safe?

I wish there was something like Docker Hub's automated builds in the Node world because the way NPM works right now, what comes from NPM is an unknown. The only thing you know is if you download a specific version once, you'll always get that same version again, unless it's invalidated. Otherwise, whatever the package author wants to upload and include, that's what you get and you can't know that what you're seeing in some Git commit is what's running in your application. I wish that was the state of the art.
Another option would've been not to do anything. If a dog peed on the street would you be upset about it and report it? How about if a bird defecated on the street? Why is human urine so much worse?

It strikes me as cruel to report and make trouble for a man who is already so overworked as to need to pee in a bottle.
1.) I never bothered to look up the ticket on the Amazon internal ticketing system. Given what the reporter alleged (i.e. that it was handled by someone from Amazon Security), I presumed it would take the standard security-related ticket handling procedures.

I obviously wouldn't look in internal ticketing systems and THEN post to my findings to a public forum like HN. For obvious reasons.

2.) > "It seems much more likely this is typical left leaning employee activism that is prevalent at tech companies."

If standard security ticket procedures were followed, it would have been locked down to the security team and the impacted team (i.e. PR/social media).

The comment that it 'seems much more likely that this is typical left leaning employee activism' implies that there aren't left-leaning or activists within the security or PR departments. Which if you believe that... lul...

this is awesome, will definitely be checking it out.

ADS-B is definitely more popular than AIS, and I've always wondered why. Perhaps it's that airplanes evoke more wonder, and is more accessible over land than poor old ships?

> There are rules in place that forbid charging the customer additional fees if a merchant chooses to accept the major credit cards.

This might have been true more than 10 years ago. I believe “Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010” invalidated card network agreements that prevented differential pricing between credit card and other payment forms, and the below ruling by Supreme Court stated the merchant can advertise the price difference however they want.

> Discounts to Customers
A PCN cannot stop you from offering your customers a discount or another incentive for using a certain method of payment, as long as you offer it to all your customers and disclose the offer clearly and conspicuously. For example, you can offer your customers a discount or a coupon if they pay with cash or a debit card rather than a credit card.

I don't understand what you mean by this; you do not need an archival node to either pull transaction receipts or to request transaction logs: you only need an archival node if you want access to all of the starting storage states of all past blocks, which you effectively never need (except for debugging). Notably: a "full node" is not an "archive node", and will not need more than the 400GB of space.
They mean they're rebooting the server having the IP that's entered in DNS, not rebooting the client consuming that service.
This happened with the bridge collapse on I-85 in Atlanta [1]

I used to take the access road parallel to the bridge and avoid a lot of traffic that was south bound. When the bridge collapsed and I-85 was blocked off, everyone learned about the parallel access road, and it now became a cluster of a traffic hot zone too.

Prior to that, a lot of people were not aware of the alternate route.

regarding the financial system, IMO the GOVT stopped caring about the constitution when they got rid of the gold standard.
This is the fundamental problem, though. There's an internal consistency so long as all evidentiary evaluation is predicated on the underlying assumption that the attestations are true. Confirmation bias does not make a firm foundation for truth-seeking. Once you realize that your standard of evidence could just as easily support any number of (contradictory) belief systems (were you to start from the premise that that particular religion, not yours, was true) the whole thing begins to crumble.
I don’t see how this has anything to do with age. I know boomers who can do this kind of troubleshooting and millennials that can’t.
Not to mention the terrorism/sabotage/non-state actor destruction opportunities that route would present that are moderately prevented on the Red Sea side (if you can get past the Horn of Africa).

I can't see Egypt approving an alternate canal that Israel would have any control over, but I could absolutely see Israel going in on a chance to a) take business from Egypt and b) add a defensive feature along that border.
Micropayments are a bad idea that feels like a good idea. They're bad for a fundamental human reason - each decision carries with it emotional and psychological burden. Make a few in a day and you land in decision fatigue [1]. Weighing the value of a purchase no matter how small over and over again makes the whole experience an utter chore.

There is a paradox in that "people who lack choices seem to want them and often will fight for them", yet at the same time, "people find that making many choices can be [psychologically] aversive." [1]

There's no technical reason why any wallet operator today, like PayPal can't do micropayments except people don't want them. They think they do, but they don't.

Concrete example: For most people, it's always been cheaper to just buy the content you want to watch from iTunes one at a time - and own it forever! But everyone uses Netflix instead. They continue to use Netflix even as it has less and less of what they actually wanted to watch in the first place! In the battle of more expensive vs more decision making, more expensive always wins.

The community has to choose where to spend money. So, they want a lifeguard because swimming makes life more enjoyable to live. That's fine.

But saying something like "life is priceless" or worth millions or whatever, that's silly. That's not how we decide to pay for any other dangerous job.

I don't know what a reasonable pay for a lifeguard is, but Glass door seems to say that the market rate is about 20-40k. This job may be risky, and it has benefits to society, but so do a lot of other jobs.
Also utf-8 (or any Unicode) wasn't supported by most (all?) Netscape versions. Falling back to default Latin1 works with English text though.

This treatment scares me to no end. I would never ever do it. Also I get sick to my stomach when movies speculate on its use.
Thanks! Yes, if you wish to setup dev environments backed by Docker or K8s containers/pods, Sysbox is an excellent way to do so because it gives you a rootless container inside of which you can run most workloads that run in VMs.

Prior to Sysbox this required privileged containers, which offer very weak isolation from the host (not to mention it also required complex container setups/entrypoints, all of which go away with Sysbox).
Progress in AI is not coming from abstract reasoning. It is coming from an increase in raw power, driven by GPUs, and mathematical models that are designed more to harness large numbers and brute force searches for formulas, rather than a high-minded algorithmic embodiment of abstraction.

Just to play Devil's Advocate ever so slightly: there are people out there who would say that there hasn't been any "progress in AI" for quite some time, or at least very little so. And they would probably argue further that the apparent progress you are referring to is just progress in "mere pattern recognition" or something like that.

I'm not sure myself. I do lean at least a little towards the idea that there is a qualitative difference between most of modern ML and many aspects of what we would call "intelligence". As such, my interests in all of this remain around the intersection of ML and GOFAI, and the possibility of hybrid systems that use elements of both.

But I can't rule out the possibility that it will eventually be found to be the case that all of "intelligence" does indeed reduce to "mere pattern recognition" in some sense. And Geoffrey Hinton may be correct in saying that we don't need, and never will need, any kind of "hybridization" and that neural networks can do it all.
For anyone interested. NICE - the UK's 'National Institute for Health and Care Excellence' has published its guidance on the use of ECT here: https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ta59/resources/the-use-of-e...

"NICE has looked carefully at the evidence and has recommended that ECT should only be used for the treatment of severe depressive illness, a prolonged or severe episode of mania, or catatonia if the conditions described in the following paragraphs are applied.
ECT should be used to gain fast and short-term improvement of severe symptoms after all other treatment options have failed, or when the situation is thought to be life-threatening.
A risk–benefit assessment for the individual should be made and documented. It should include the risks associated with the anaesthetic, whether the person has other illnesses, the possible adverse effects of ECT (particularly problems with memory), and the risks of not having treatment."
Now it's more accurate, but even less catchy ;-)
