What do you mean by structured concurrency? Do you mean hierarchy management?
You said it, sarcastically, but that didn't mean I didn't think it. At first blush it sounds a little crazy, but the more I think about it...

Consider my problem: I use `zsh` and have created, collected and organized a large number of completions which I synchronize among several workstations. It frustrates me to no end that I cannot take advantage of these completions in very many other convenient places, like VSCode[0]. The benefit of writing it in `zsh` (I can't speak for bash) is that seems like it'd be pretty simple to wire up the LSB as a sort of "completions proxy" that simply takes the inputs, passes them to a completion script, parses the output and formats it in the appropriate JSON response. The utility of being able to have a single script (or set of scripts) that I can include in my shared profile directory which will run and handle a `zsh` LSB implementation on-demand (i.e. doesn't need installing, sits in my scripts directory and runs everywhere) would be a huge feature.

This will speak to my ignorance, but can you host a web server (in a manner that can be consumed) from just bash and a lean environment[1]? Could you host an LSP without one (i.e. is there enough to use a socket and would it be enough to point it at the right place/scheme?). I believe there are `zsh` extensions which can facilitate some/all of this, but I'm not sure if it would work out of the box. The downside to developing it in `zsh`, other than the language itself[2] is performance. Both of those, assuming "the hosting/serving" can be handled easily, don't represent big problems, maybe they are. But performance and the language should be up to what remains outside of that.

[0] I had `nvim` set up correctly, once to work with completion scripts and was able to translate that into VSCode doing the same, about two years ago. I'm still not fully convinced I didn't just dream this up because the few times I've looked into it, since, I've gotten nowhere (admittedly, I've put little effort into researching).

[1] I'm thinking 'busybox', minimal gnu-related things, ideally requiring as little as possible beyond a relatively recent version of `bash` so that "if it's got bash, I can use it".

[2] I use `zsh` because it's easier for me to write things in it than `bash`, and at times it can be fun. But there's a reason we don't build solutions using it.

[3] Everything's a string...
Sure - easy.

1. Find a rich person with money that needs laundering (this is the hardest step)

2. Sell the "bunglemudgeons" (could just be a .txt doc that contains the phrase "100k bunglemudgeons") to the rich person in the form of an NFT for $10M

3. 100k Bunglemudgeons are now worth at least $10M

4. Rich person can now re-sell it to an alias of himself (or a rich friend) for an even greater amount to launder his dirty money

EDIT: NVM the whole thing is a mess
This is a good point, but it is a bit different from the observation I was trying to make. What I am more observing is that if someone within your discipline uses elements of another discipline and brings it into yours, if it is done well, others who are in that discipline will appreciate it. Case in point: if a programmer incorporates poetry into their code.

On the other hand, if someone from another discipline uses your discipline as an element in theirs, those from whose discipline that element was taken from seem typically unable to appreciate the broader work of art, instead only fixating on how the materials from their discipline have not been used properly. Case in point: if for example a contemporary artist incorporates some programming in their art installation.
But there are animals that have tremendously longer lifespans that humans so there is no biological reason why we can't extend our lifespans.

Sure if you just prefer if your emails look a certain way then there's no point in discussing proof, just do the thing you like.

However if the discussion is whether you should just send plaintext emails or use a complicated and/or expensive tool to send out fancy emails then the more time/money consuming side has more to prove.

Given that the first few replies I got were essentially "Well I assume somebody checked this", I'm not sure the assumption that fancier emails are necessarily better has been questioned enough.

I'm also reminded of several articles where online marketing itself turned out to be nowhere near as effective as people think. [1,2]

It's quite possible that some people will eventually contract COVID-19 and die from it, even several weeks after getting their last immunization shot (supposedly at a point when they're fully protected). It just didn't happen in any of the trials.

If anyone wants to look at the raw phase 3 numbers:

Pfizer numbers: 43,448 participants received injections (21,720 the vaccine and 21,728 the placebo); 8 cases of COVID-19 in the vaccinated group and 162 in the placebo group, 9 were severe (8 of those in the placebo group).

Pfizer study: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2034577?query=fe...

Moderna numbers: 30,420 participants, evenly split with 15,210 in each group, over 96% got both injections. There were 185 symptomatic cases in the placebo group and 11 in the vaccinated group. 30 participants had severe cases including one causing death: all were in the placebo group.

In similar C-string trickery, consider this lovely bool-to-string function:

/** @brief Construct a String equal to "true" or "false"
depending on the
value of @a x. */
inline String::String(bool x) {
// bool_data equals "false\0true\0"
assign_memo(bool_data + (-x & 6), 5 - x, 0);
}

Context: This is the source code of the Click Modular Router, a system for implementing packet processing logic with a graph-like DSL. Both primitives, and certain complex logic, are implemented in C++; however, as this has to be able to run as a Linux kernel module or in userspace or as a BSD kernel module, it can't use the C++ standard library, and do has its own stdlib.
I've almost never had to write or read C in a professional capacity, but if I saw that the candidate was such a geek, it would certainly be a huge plus. There's a huge gap in professionalism and knowledge between people who choose software engineering as a trade because it pays well, and people who love it for the sake of it.

But there's a catch. Second kind of engineer is not only better, but also much more desirable and highly paid, so may be it's an indicator that you should check whether your salary range is high enough and your tasks are challenging enough for someone like that. For some (if not most) roles, 9-to-5, grunt work engineer that just closes tickets and doesn't write new languages in his spare time is really the best fit.

Look for an order type called "limit on open," or its radioactive cousin, "market on open."

The reason people don't do this is, that kind of order requires having an opinion about what a stock should be priced at. And retail traders basically never have that opinion.

Something that just happened, and I immediately realized it would be relevant to share here:

A friend of mine texted me a question about an issue he was having, and I texted back an answer with some Python code for illustration. I don't know if he has ever used Python for anything. I just assume it's an acceptable least common denominator for technical communication. Even if it turned out he was a copy of my friend from an alternative timeline where Python never existed, he would have no trouble reading it as pseudocode.

Try that with Perl!
The UK certainly didn’t do enough either, so many here are in rent arrears for example. Rents should’ve been frozen as the first act.

This is really only true if you were lucky enough to buy gold in early 1971. Even a couple years later, market indexes would have been a significantly better bet. [0]

The more interesting observation in my opinion, is that priced in gold, market index growth isn't nearly as impressive as dollar denominated numbers would lead you to believe. Priced in gold (excluding dividends) the S&P 500 still hasn't recovered from the dotcom bubble, it's just barely made it back to pre global financial crisis levels, and even that is on par with the 60s. [1]

The fiat standard distorts our view of the world and tricks us into seeing growth that isn't real. It's like if the CGPM [2] cut off a sliver from the meter stick every year (before pegging to universal constants) which makes it seem like you're growing in height your entire life, even though in reality you stop growing in your 20s and even start shrinking in old age.

I believe a tie is different from equality.

The reason the above holds is because a and b must both be the same element.

A "tie" in this case assume they are different elements. Ie the author is a different person from his grandmother. If that's the case, then it's false that author == grandmother.

Ie two things can't be "tied" unless they are actually just one thing.
That the appreciation was 0% makes a lot of sense since the dollar pas pegged to the gold. Maybe it just means that having a currency that increases in value by 7% per year was untenable since it doesn’t incentivize people to invest in more productive ventures. It’s deflationary.
But this article is about the US, where there have been no lockdowns. Only (mostly) unenforced stay-at-home orders, (mostly) unenforced business closures, and (mostly) unenforced mask mandates. I don't see the link. Lots of people have been out horsing around, doing whatever they wanted this past year, and sidestepping the token, unenforced roadblocks that were half-assed by governments. Something must be causing all these terrible things, but it's not lockdowns.

I would start looking at lack of government action rather than the little they actually did.

No, you don't. But it comes with the cost of increased polarization.
I literally just did a huge rip on crypto currencies the other day, mostly regarding bitcoin. However, there's one aspect to Filecoin that I do see as... potential is a strong word, but maybe appropriate still. It's not entirely fair to lump it in with other cryptocoins. There is some value behind it, in means of distributed storage. While I would argue it's more efficient, easier and all around better to use standard alternatives since Filecoin adds a layer of complexity to marginal benefit... I can never argue it's completely useless. There is some economic value backing it since it provides a service outside of just being a cryptocurrency.

If I woke up from a 15 year coma and was quickly told about Bitcoin and Filecoin, one had a value of $200 each, the other $50k. Then asked which one was the $50k one? I'd first say, "Filecoin obviously" and second, please just kill me I don't want to live in this bizzaro reality.
In my experience, financial literacy is so poor and Dunning Kruger so high that typical non-finance human beings constantly blame the process for extremely basic mistakes, like sending money between accounts of different titles but saying that you own both of them.

Even the word "title" would detonate the average person.

You hit the hammer on the nail. IPFS urls point to content-addressable data. These URLs can be pinned by anyone running an IPFS node. However, what's missing is an easy way to "seed" lists of IPFS files with whatever storage you have. Ideally, there's a way for me to choose to contribute - say - 30 GB of space to a particular project, and the system will take care of pinning the most-needed files, up to that storage limit. This would be useful for any number of public archival projects.

I've seen efforts where people bring up a web page that tells you which torrents to seed, based on how many seeds are active. But this is manual work, and not too robust.
Is 10TB an arbitrary size or does it fluctuate like the bitcoin difficulty?

If it doesn't change then the whole thing is probably just going to crash eventually.

EDIT: after looking at the mining pdf in the child comment this whole thing looks goofy. idk what to say.
This one can't be. (It's not exposed in UI, at least not right now.)
You can't really compare things to the past for a lot of reasons.

1. In the past you were probably the only person with wifi in a mile. Now you have countless units attempting to talk in any given place on a very limited spectrum.

2. 5ghz is fast but walls and objects kill your speed quick.

3. Turning down your current 2.4ghz to wireless B speeds will increase your reliability in environments with few neighbours. Imagine a 10mbit network hub. Worked ok back in the day. Now try to increase its speed to 1gbit and add lots of uses. You wont get much done, everything gets corrupted and you retransmit a lot.
dont forget that flu deaths are _after_ vaccinations, of which there are now billions annually.
Many wireless and ethernet connections could ultimately network with just a few Starlink user dishes in population centers. I think the base station could be located in neighboring countries. It might be plausible if you have a bunch of young people who are disconnected for too long.
Well ya, obviously that's true, but that's not the point of my comment or the thread. I don't really want to intern anywhere, or for that matter have much more than a shred of aspiration left to work at any company, because I just don't find companies or what they do that interesting. But if I wasn't doing anything, I'd choose to work with evidently neat people, and those have most often been working at Google or on other stuff at Universities, or at the MET center, or at a company owned by Google. I'd maybe also intern as a plumber, or with a wilderness guide.
There are many businesses that have adapted to and prefer pandemic life. They, perhaps even more so than the hysterics, are our major blockers to returning to normalcy.

I find it works very well, so basically everything seems right. Use it for nine accounts concurrently. Rarely have any issues.
I loved this article, but I'm confused about one thing – if I read it correctly, it seems to connect hacked routers inserting tokens into traffic, and tokens found on hundreds of pages (discovered with a script run by the author). But he wouldn't see these at all, so the same token found by him on many hosts is caused by something different, isn't it?
Thanks, this one seem to also have a view engine, I will check it out what templates does it provide.
Many Stock brokers like Webull let you buy crypto, but you can't transfer them to your wallet or use them to make purchases. Also, they claim no fees, but they add the fee to the spread (the spread is artificially increased to 1% both ways (2% total)) ... so it is like a hidden fee that ends up being more then what you pay on Coinbase, especially if you trade a substantial amount each month [1]. So Coinbase is still one of the best even though they can't handle the loads when the market get busy.

What’s “Apex Crypto”?

I am not being obtuse or sarcastic here. Is it this? http://apexcrypto.com Because that website tells me nothing at all. And past that, Google only shows a few press releases.

-

But on the consumer crypto coin collector criteria, it still seems like Coinbase has the mind-share. And I imagine they have the reach and scale to be in compliance with regulators, which is what makes them a more attractive investment.

Me? Square’s Cash app is awfully slick, and makes buying drugs…I mean…buying non-fiat currency to stick it to the man all very easy. But I have no idea if people use that feature frequently.
