That may be true, but the toothpaste is out of the tube. If we can't abruptly stop the use of fossil fuels to stop climate change, I don't think any amount of pointing out how much energy BTC uses is going to change the fact that it's been well established.
Having someone to do the tracking and handle the decisions sounds like a huge help to me. Both of those things cause stress which is hard to sustain.
Crypto is not illegal in Turkey, or for that matter other financial instruments including foreign exchange or gold. The central bank regulated crypto for payments as of April 30. Apparently the only place that offered crypto as a payment form was the Rolls Royce dealership.

“This week Royal Motors, which distributes Rolls-Royce and Lotus cars in Turkey, became the first business in the country to accept payments in cryptocurrencies.”

I think by this point, people have largely reached an equilibrium in terms of their individual judgement as to his credibility. That equilibrium appears to be bi-modal across the population, with each side seemingly unable to comprehend why the other group holds that opinion.

If I were writing a big web-app I'd probably use either golang, or Perl.

I'm not a fan of PHP, I've never used any of the python frameworks, and while I can use Ruby on Rails it would usually not be my first choice - not unless I was building a simple CRUD application.

Perl gives me the amazing CGI::Application framework, a lot of libraries for integrations, and a standard approach to writing tests.

Golang is the new-hot, it's good for writing servers and services, also has a testing-centric development approach, good support for templates and a simpler deployment approach than most dynamic languages.

Still, my preferences tell you little except what I can/will use. The answer is usually to always pick the framework/think you're most familiar with OR the thing that you want to learn next.

This smart contract has no way of knowing if/what the damages are, whether the rent was paid in cash, or whether a million other legal issues are happening.

For example, in most places, tenants may stop paying rent if their heat breaks in the winter and the landlord won't fix it promptly.

The central authority will always be human courts. Smart contracts can't observe or record anything except crypto, which makes them useless in 99% of contractual disputes.
Author here. How long do your dev builds take, and what is it that you are building? Curious what kind of improvement you get with split-debuginfo enabled!

This project is a very small hyper/tokio backend API. However, I also work on a CLI tool [1] I created which has very fast recompile times, usually less than a second. Mostly because it's pretty light on dependencies.

Not a TL;DR but if you prefer to read comments skipping the article, here are some juicy bits about supporting a web browser supporting a "fork of Mozilla Firefox for the Power Macintosh and Mac OS X Tiger PowerPC".

> If you aren’t paying for the software, then please don’t be a jerk. There is a human at the other end of those complaints and unless you have a support contract, that person owes you exactly nothing. Whining is exhausting to read and “doesn’t work” reports are unavoidably depressing, disparaging or jokey comments are unkind, and making reports nastier or more insistent doesn’t make your request more important. This is true whether or not your request is reasonable or achievable, but it’s certainly more so when it isn’t.

> As kindly as I can put it, not all bug reports are welcome.

> And that puts undue pressure on the one guy who is pushing this specific platform forward on what is arguably its most important tool. (On top of all of this Kaiser, a medical doctor and infectious diseases expert, [...] during a pandemic, [...] who briefly hinted at this in his TenFourFox post, literally was the person who called off Coachella this year.)

So in addition to maintaining a fork of Firefox he averts an explosion of COVID-19 cases from Coachella in his day job.

If you have the patience and knowledge, I can't recommend this enough. If you don't have the patience and the knowledge, this is a good way to end up with a non-functioning phone. (It will probably be recoverable, provided that you have the patience to acquire that knowledge and don't mind being without a phone in the meantime.)

When I say I can't recommend it enough, I mean it. I have been okay with simply disabling Google services for the past few years, yet Google seems to be embedding their services deeply in applications like Phone, Messages, Contacts, and Files. It is at the point where these applications would throw up a stream of notifications when Google services were disabled on Android 10. Even though they appeared to be usable, they are clearly trying to annoy people into re-enabling Google services.
So, literally not better than an existing contract, but with the added complexity of coding it and having both the landlord and the tenant be programmers versed in esoteric languages to verify it.
I think there are two components to this (they might be related, though, I don't know).

On the side, exercise does make you fitter, and consume some calories, etc.

But then, I find that it also has a non-negligible effect on the food I crave. I find it much, much easier to not eat tons of "junk food" when I exercise. And by that, I mean I practically don't feel like eating any, at all. I actually crave vegetables and meat. And those have a tendency to be "filling" and not have you want to eat again 2 hours later.

So it's much easier for me to actually lower my calorie intake when exercising.
What programming language are the sequences coded in? Is the code available?
Jesus. I see dental protesis ads around the time when I see my parents. I don't have the time to set up the things for them so I'm sure their cheap Android smartphones are surveillance blackholes.
Those looking to buy Soviet era books in Mumbai, check out People's Book Store in Fort area (Google maps- https://goo.gl/maps/pJd7ve2g68D8AXsK7). Behind racks of Marx and Che Guevara are stashed quite some rare books.

I distinctly remember seeing the cover image book (Adventures of Denis). Visited sometime in late 2018.
The point is that such a contract requires a central authority that must be capable of evicting the tenant. A "smart contract" which is just some code running on a computer certainly can't do that.
This is awesome! I can imagine something like this in the text-based video editor we are developing. One usage could be automatic frame alignment for moving objects.

Some of the car commercials showing new assisting features make me laugh. It's often shown as special effects in the form of futuristic radar, or grid reaching out. The driver is shown with a confident yet smug look. The next shot some mundane everyday traffic incident that's blown out of proportion as if it were going to be tragic. The end is the happy driver showing relief their inattention and incompetence as a driver was thwarted by technology preventing their death.
Are you saying that Google collects and uploads your location data (GPS and cellphone tower ID), despite opting out of data collection on Android?
I won't be the most popular person on hacker news for this but check out bubble.io for the front end and then use heruku(free tier) + python(flask + fastapi, etc) for the API.

With this stack you can quickly build a API, connect it to bubble and show people your idea in a way that's actually working. Later on you can move all your API data off bubble and replace the front end with whatever you want.

I found it the cheapest and easiest way to build something very quickly.

You and I can agree on an independent 3rd party as a notary. If within a six months of the sale both you and the notary sign off that the deal was not fulfilled (the car is junk), you get the $100k back.

That means I can’t spend the $100k directly for six months. But, I can easily take out a six month loan against it. That way it’s liquid for me and still safe for you. The loan agent is taking on the risk in exchange for the interest.
The tenant is mentally ill, has a gun, and is refusing to leave. The enforcer says "f that". What do you do now?

I actually want a good flip phone myself.

I bought a locally made KaiOS phone but it has too low RAM and keep crashing.

Nokia makes flip phones with KaiOS but they aren't allowed in my country sadly.

Reason is I want a phone I can repair myself, all my previous phones I had to replace because some unrepairable part that didn't need to be unrepairable (one of them it was the battery!) broke down.

Instead of shelling a ton of money to be tracked and buy a product that won't last, I wish I could spend my phone on something that will last.

And the flip cover is convenient for me because I keep forgetting to lock my phone and managed to pocket dial even with an android.

This maps wonderfully onto SVD, Neural networks and embeddings.

Word embeddings frequently encode particular traits in different 'regions' of a 256(ish) dimensional space. AFAIK, It is also why we think of element wise addition (merging) in neural networks as an efficient and relatively loss-less computation. The aggregation after attention step used in Transformers (GPT-3) fundamentally relies on this being true.

Although from my reading, there is an inherent assumption of sparsity in such situations. So, is it reasonable to assume that human neurons are also relatively sparse in how information is stored ?

The first one seems most likely to be the relevant answer to how this was tracked:

> Google’s third-party partnerships ... capture approximately 70% of credit and debit card transactions in the United States

See also https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-08-30/google-an... and https://www.technologyreview.com/2017/05/25/242717/google-no... - Google has deals with the credit card providers to get purchase data so they can link them back to your online behavior.
Of course, no single safeguard will prevent 100% of possible accidents. What is your point?
They don't have those features either, so then I have to look at other features. Brave comes with a pretty good ad blocker out of the box (whereas in Firefox I have to install uBlock) it's also very explicit about the ads it shows, keeps a log, allows to opt out individually or altogether, and seems to stay away from shady features like Floc. To be honest, I'm not too convinced the change in paradigm will be an actual improvement over the old one, but I appreciate the transparency of the system. Some web applications that I use frequently work noticeably better in Chromium/Brave than in Firefox and in the end I want a good balance between ideals and quality of life.

To be honest the main reason I have to keep Firefox as my default browser is that I'm used to the developer tools and I like them better than Chrome's. But it's gotten to the point where I have to tell myself that it wouldn't make any sense to drop those, but I thought the same when they dropped all the other features, so I find it harder and harder to stay optimistic.
How does this work when they haven't vested yet?

In that sense Democracy is also a bug then. In some ways it's a feature. It's a feature because it makes harder for reverse engineers to know which compiler generated the code. When they figure out the compiler, they can reverse the compiler logic.
For general health benefits, it's simple: walking is easier to do consistently than running is. I walk to work and to get groceries, and each of those is ~20 minutes each way, so I'm getting in almost an hour and a half of walking most days on top of whatever else a given day has (I live in a Nordic city, so lots of stuff is walkable).

However, in my current state, I don't think I would be able to comfortably run the same distance every day. If I got into the habit, though, I expect I'd see more changes to body composition, though, yes.

Thank you, it's currently connected to the Testnet so you can safely test is without the risk of losing real money.
Before Mozilla's rewrite of Firefox, I had this great addon installed that just hides all floating elements. Great for blocking stalking consent forms and title bars, or even worse, those social sharing bars at the bottom of the article.

Ublock origin's element zapper works to kill the title bar, and reader mode is also available. Workarounds for bad site design, I know, but at least I can read the text without distractions.

Sadly, I'm still waiting on Mozilla to reopen all addons back to me. I know I can use the nightly version of the browser and a custom addon collection to force the installation of the addon, but I don't want the instability that comes with it. I'm already running the beta so I can have my about:config with all the stability issues that come with it.

The problem I saw most of the time was devs simply see value differently or ignore it completely.

In the best case they think about solving a user problem as directly as possible.

I the worst case they just want to apply a technology or paradigm as correctly as possible, and everyone has their own opinion on how this is done.

But successful software is a non-trivial function of solving a users problem and extracting the most money with that solution from the market.

That and privacy, security, performance, usability, etc. pp.

Nobody cares how your solution is a perfect application for K8s.

If they can't find it because of non-existing marketing, it won't work.

If you can't make money to support it's maintenance, it won't work.
(Also, the only time multiple branches cause issues is if the two branches have different dependencies, and again, only on the first compile. Both the source and the compiled artifacts don't live in source control, and so swapping branches doesn't trigger a re-build of them.)
You are right, I should have quoted the top so it was clearer what I was answering to.
Yep it's annoying. Always have to go through the clipboard so that I can remove the parameter manually.
I completely agree with this, but I additionally advocate for function/method names to be formed verb-object. Plus IMHO active, descriptive verbs are best, instead of 'do', 'handle', or 'manage'. As others have mentioned, handle click might be appropriate as a shim/landing point for satisfying an interface. Logic is best when focused without unnecessary dependencies/side effects.
The best naming comes along with a strong design and architecture, when all the pieces can justify their existence and boil down to the essence of what the system is trying to accomplish.
You literally start your comment by acting like what I described is useless then follow with

Thats is why I said this is about negligent parents because it is! That child on the top of the treadmill could have easily grasped the nice tactile looking knob on the side of the machine.

They would have been instantly catapulted off the machine at full speed and no guard would have helped.

These machines will launch a grown man off them at just 5 mph, at 8mph he's being chucked clear across into whatever happens to be at the other side of the machine: https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/great-scott-dad-rides-laundr...

Like a Tread has a safety key clipped to you, your "reaction time" would literally be turning your body.

But even that is a red herring: if you're letting your kids near the machine while you're using it and unable to react to them even getting near you, let alone on it, again you're being negligent and no mitigation will change that.

That's not saying there should be no safety features before someone starts misconstruing this comment to say that...but the machine by it's nature exposes its most dangerous surface. It's like if your cheap gardening tool required holding it by the blade to use it, the treadmill belt has to be exposed in large swaths for the thing to work and presents an immediate danger to children.

Like seriously, think of a treadmill as a chainsaw you run on because it's not that far off in terms of power or how many people get hurt by them every single year.

Again treadmills injured over 20 thousand people in one year. 20 thiusand ER visits... if it was as easy to make a treadmill "99.9% safe" as you're handwaving it away to be with grandiose psuedo-political pandering... I'm sure someone would have thought of it.
Yes my example was if updateDate literally just updates the date - I take this a step further too, Eg if the function has some extra checks, I’ll name it maybeDoX(), which is a somewhat uncommon practice in common programming languages
I don't know - I've worked for a startup (in the size/age sense, not in the unicorn scaling sense) where they focused on one market segment (small customers) then got the opportunity to onboard a huge franchise. This required a huge change but would basically make their buisiness stable for X years and allow them to grow into a different market. But they had specific dates that needed to be met because existing provider contract was expiring, etc. etc.

So the product wasn't built for their scale, it took a bunch of invasive changes, dirty hacks, and accepting client specific workflow initially. You can look at that and say "we're lockign ourselves into their workflow" and "we're making client specific features" - but this client literally 3x their revenue year one and increased it a couple times more for extra features developed. And once you have one big client and solve their problems - you can try to generalise and sell to their competition as well.
You could certainly test this, just have a conversation every day about something random. Pick a snack food, something with a heavy advertising budget, and near your phone start saying things "man I really want some (snack food) right now."

If it's listening, you'll start getting ads specific to that snack food, best to try it with a bunch of different products to try and find a pattern.
Guess I'll share my own story: close to seven years ago now I was nudging up against 270 pounds and had a 44 inch waist. I decided to make some changes and started walking 2 miles a night. This is less than half the distance spoken of in the OP, but in compensation the route involved several decent hills and I walked it briskly. I also did a couple of other things that I think were important: I stopped adding sugar to coffee and I stopped drinking soda and having desert every night after dinner. Over a period of around a year I dropped from 265-ish to 215-ish and shrank my waist to 36 inches. I'm still walking the two miles every night, seven nights a week. Coming out of the covid-19 year of sloth I've put about 15 pounds back on, so I am considering adding another mile or two to the routine and perhaps doing a few other exercises, but just walking those two miles a night worked wonders for me.
