The limitation of any tracker is battery lifetime. The AirTag circumvents this by only using low power transmission and the network of all iPhones and iPads in the world, which then relay via their own wifi/4G.

What is certain is that we'll see sophisticated modifications to AirTags that (1) disable the beep, (2) disable anti-stalking.

Theoretically remote attestation and self-disabling anti-tamper could be used, but the potential wins for bypassing the Apple protocol are enormous, the Holy Grail of surveillance espionage.
The concept is revolutionary, for sure.

But for now it doesn't work as well as a classic SPA architecture. The server-side mode works not very well on poor connections (mobile), and the client-side WASM builds are extremely slow. Especially on first load, this takes seconds.

Blazor may be well suited for Intranet apps already, where quick&cheap development is very important, and connections are fast and stable. Blazor Desktop is an example for that use case (no latency between frontend and backend).

For internet apps, something like Gmail or Instagram, it seems to be not very well suited. Especially not for websites with interactive content, for example a comment-box inside a blog. Nobody wants to wait multiple seconds until the content is responsive, or the "reconnecting to server" overlay disappears

Anecdotally many crypto holders prefer to not liquidate their crypto positions but instead take out loans via BlockFi to purchase hard assets like real estate. With cash in hand and now a property, they can get a cash out refi and the crypto loan is not a taxable event since the crypto was just collateral.
The segregation of top teams across all divisions is pretty much how the Premier League was formed.

> The fundamental difference between the old Football League and the breakaway league (what became the Premier League) is that the money in the breakaway league would only be divided between the clubs active in that division whilst in the previous arrangement it was shared between all Football League clubs across all divisions.

Not really an OS, I just squeezed an implementation of Tetris into a 512-byte boot sector. I remember that a first draft had ~600 bytes and I was cutting away bytes, here replacing mov ax,0 with xor ax,ax, there reusing code as data, until I arrived at that size.

I've lost the source code, but ndisasm should help out.

I remember I encoded tetromino shapes as a 4x4 1bpp bitmaps taking up 2 bytes each, and there's a 56 41 59 41 52 01 56 01 15 48 52 41 59 in the hexdump, which in ASCII reads VAYAR^AV^A^UHRAY. I've been meaning to write a short story featuring a Vayar V. Hray as a protagonist, but never got around to it.
I'm arguing that OP did not build an OS. They built a program that needs a quite heavyweight runtime and loader in form of a system emulator.
There are certainly games that have negative feedback loops for leading players. Some Ludo variants make it progressively harder for players to make valid moves the more pieces they brought home, for example by forcing the player to move to an empty home field with an exact dice roll.

Generally, I'd say that if you have a game that regularly ends in close finishes it's likely either very random or it contains negative feedback loops.
I have to admit "The recurring nightmare" is no funny bug for me. It really took away nights of mine. First of all reproducing itself is a tough job locally.

Could you name companies that forced you changing the license from Apache 2 to AGPLv3? It looks like this isn't Amazon because Grafana labs has good partnership with them [1] [2].

Where scalability is indeed nonsensical for an embedded database, performance very much is a feature of it.
I don’t know how larger the game state/save game is, but if it’s small enough for a url parameter, they might even use their CDN for caching, as I would assume the same state always results in the same game output. If you don’t deviate from paths of previous players, you could sail along a cached path, no computation required :)
This I agree with. My contention was with what you first wrote, which made it seem like the 4 day limit was not meaningful. I think it makes all the difference for the reasons I laid out.
The difference being that all teams were subject to relegation if they did not perform.
I agree completely. I think the greatest value proposition of non-government money (e.g. gold, bitcoin) — at least in the long run — is the ability to escape from zero/negative interest rates.

I also agree that the different between EUR and USD bond yields seems to indicate that there exists no reliable way to arbitrage the spread in bond yields between different currencies (or, at least, that there exists a certain spread beneath which it's not profitable).
You can call it that.

But both data and research and confirm that.

You've started a really interesting discussion, after reading the thread I am no longer surprised why companies are simply banning AGPL-ed software en block.

Dealing with such issues, the risk of being abused by some AGPL-enforcement troll who would try to sue a company because it uses some software that uses some other software that happened to use a driver that talks to API which is served by AGPL-ed application... Just wow.

The sad outcome of this is that decision makers would say: ehh, better use AWS or some commercial software as open source sucks.

You're comparing a risk-free rate (government bonds) with a rate on risky investments. Not really comparable at all. You can also find high-yield bonds (aka junk bonds) denominated in USD.

Also real interest rates are set by the market not governments. Monetary policy has, at best, only small effects on real rates (in theory it should have none).
These are the largest clubs in UK and Europe. They is no risk of demotion but rather a risk of not qualifying to the Champions League, which in practice is both a planning and financial problem and a disappointment to fans.

In the UK only the top 4 in the Premier League qualify for the Champions League. So at least 2 of the 6 clubs that signed up for the ESL lose out every single year, which means very unpredictable income and matches.

So I perfectly understand why they want a bit more certainty and a guarantee to bring top games to fans every year.

I'm not into football so I understand much less why fans were so opposed to this. And I am also shocked that the PM wanted to intervene within 24 hours of the announcement on an issue that seems completely private and irrelevant compared to all the issues the country is facing.

> TWINO offers a buyback guarantee on some of its loans. Basically, the buyback guarantee is a promise made by TWINO to its investors to repurchase loans that are not repaid by the borrower.

It looks as though that the buyback is not a guarantee on all their loans, just some. I'm guessing this also comes with lower yields because they would need to take insurance to cover their risk. So unless you compare it to the lower yields, my point stands.

With a default rate of 5% last year [1], I'd say the loans are way riskier.

The NHSSB has its flaws; one being that, given it was sampled from the US population at large, when you try to look at small minorities (and minorities within minorities) the data starts to dry up. It does have the breakdown by sex data you mention, though.

There are other signs that point the same way. In 2019 a Canadian survey on open relationships (which did not look directly at sexual orientation) they found a remarkable gap between the % of men and women who report such a relationship would be ideal: 18% of men and 6% of women. -- https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30932711/

The data on number of sex partners is telling too.

From a recent US population survey, the percent who report 3 or more sex partners in the last 12 months: 35% of gay/bisexual men, 15% of straight men, 6% of straight women, 17% of lesbians. -- https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7293001/

A slightly older Australian study from the early 2000s is a bit more dramatic. Asking the number of partners in the previous five years, it found that for men who identified as homosexual, the mean was 32 and the median 7 partners, with the max capped at >2000 to stop skewing the numbers. For women identified as homosexual, it found a mean of 3 and a median of 1 partner with a maximum of 54. -- https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14696706/

Unfortunately all such studies tend to suffer from at least some of the same flaws you mention, with either sample size, reliability of sampling, or issues of identity confusing the situation. (In the Australian study, it seems women who reported multiple same-sex partners identified as heterosexual relatively more often, for example, which follows the pattern of what you noted.)

The particular numbers vary from study to study, but this general pattern is almost always there. While the median number of partners among gay men tends to only be a bit higher than among straight men, the mean is always outright hilarious. A large minority of gay men are quite promiscuous, and there just is not an equivalently-sized phenomenon with women who have same-sex relationships.

Magic modules is a strange beast. It relies on manually writing YAML, containing serialized Ruby objects. You then invoke rake tasks to generate Go code.

And even then, magic modules only covers some of the resources in the GCP provider. The remainder are completely written by hand. Presumably because the Ruby objects are not sufficiently expressive to cover all the edge cases.
That difference is pretty much irrelevant given that it's the last 3-4 teams that face relegation and promotion in a competition of 20-22 teams. In any case, the European Super League is a pan-European league, not a UK league with divisions. You don't like it, you don't watch it. It's entertainment.
Don't forget that the ESL would have bypassed the UEFA, which would probably have freed a lot of cash to be redistributed to the clubs.

> the destruction of socialism in '89 isn't a good example, most of us would still prefer it over capitalism

As the example of pre-wall GDR shows, socialism can only exist with GULAG's for the suppression of the unconvinced. I seriously doubt about most of "us" preferring socialism over capitalism, unless you take a very specific (unknown to me) definition of "us". It would most certainly not apply to HN's readers.

> The rest (surplus) is either appropriated by capitalists or pooled together by the workers or a worker's state to fund collective efforts

This reminds me of Marxism and its problem: while it's fine in theory, it hasn't been proved yet to effectively work in practice (and that is not for lack of trying).

> all socialist revolutions so far have been in poor under-industrialised countries that improved drastically under socialism

Other "poor under-industrialised countries" that did not have revolutions have nevertheless improved drastically under capitalism.
I don't think Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites are good places for randomly asking out anyone due to etiquette. In fact, even offline there seems to be a growing backlash, at least in American society, toward randomly asking out women.

However, what I believe the author meant by using Facebook and Twitter for dating is that if you have already built a community using these sites and if you are active in that community, it may be possible for you to ask out someone else in that community, provided that both of you already know each other and have spent a significant amount of time interacting with each other. I know someone who met his ex-girlfriend via Instagram sometime eight years ago; she saw his Instagram posts and was a regular commenter, and they started exchanging messages.

I think the key for dating, whether it's online or offline, is being part of a community and being valued in it. I agree with the author that the problem with online dating is that the medium for expressing yourself is limited to a profile photo and a profile description; you are reduced to a résumé. When people are reduced to résumés, then whoever has the best-looking résumé ends up getting responses. Not everybody does well under these circumstances. However, if people were able to know a person's desirable traits that cannot be easily captured in an online dating site's profile, then that person's dating chances may improve. Being a part of a community, whether it's offline or online, gives people a chance to see how people in the community behave and what they think.

But, given my limited success in dating, "you don't have to take my word for it" (with apologies to LeVar Burton).

I find Slavic languages to be less distant from one another than other major Indo-European languages. They're by no means mutually intelligible when spoken, but you can kind of get by. There's also the Interslavic [1] conlang, which is targets mutual intelligibility without much additional learning. It's surprisingly readable, but like most conlangs, I think more of a solution is search of a problem than anything.

A regular centralized company wouldn't want to necessarily use the ETH blockchain. They would use a private blockchain for internal auditing or supply chain partnerships, and would probably build it on something like HyperLedger https://www.hyperledger.org/use/fabric (What?!

Binance did fork ETH and has built out the Binance Smart Chain. Problem is that is still centralized. The unresolved debate is whether its the code or the network effects that matter.

Blazor has two modes: Blazor client-side is C# code running on a WASM dotnet runtime. It does have the frontend/backend split. Data still has to be serialized (as HTTP calls since that's all a browser can do) but it's done using the same classes & libraries as on the backend.

Blazor server-side has no distinction though because everything is running on the server, and the UI is just a thin stream of HTML updates.

The model you choose is up to you based on resources, latency requirements, payload size, etc. Blazor just gives you more ways to get things done.
