Oddly enough, if you don't care about cross platform and pixel perfect placement, Winforms are probably the sanest choice. It's been ported to .NET 5 and they fixed some of the high DPI issues of the past (more coming in .NET 6).
I think as I understand it, your question is whether we can't just put a distributed layer on top of basic embedded databases.

This is really interesting and is something I came across while writing this. It turns out that concurrency is actually quite difficult because either you have global locks, which means only one process can write to the database/indicies at once and slows things down considerably, or you have to do a lot of clever things to avoid those locks.
> if you concentrate ownership of supply you drastically reduce the number of votes it gets

Unfortunately most of the influencing of politics isn't accomplished by voting, it's done by lobbying.

So it's sadly the opposite. The more you concentrate ownership, the larger those mega-landlord-corporations become and the more clout they have with the politicians.
The langauge could lack recursion but still be powerful enough to express what recursion is (just like English doesnt have pitch accent, but you can discuss pitch accent in Emglish).

Alternatively, someone who speaks Piraha natively could learn English and discuss about this concept in English.
You said high cash flow due to transaction fees but it's planned a reduction in transaction fees. So in next 6 years the cash flow will be lower, right?
It's not for salaries, more for living costs for the founders. Most founding teams are expected to be able to build a prototype and get some sales on their own. Once they have product-market fit, they raise money to scale, which is where salaries come in. The deals are low for good reason. If they have too much too early, they'll start scaling before they have the right thing to scale.
I'm not sure how to respond other that it's interesting how people switched from accusing everyone of being ignorant to demanding from them to be ignorant. Or was it always some kind of doublespeak? Not sure.
The presentation contained a funny mission impossible video where Tim Cook stole a M1 from a Macbook Air and put it in an iPad pro. I think it could be a hint to having MacOS on top of the iPad pro. WWDC is coming and they have been preparing for the same apps to run both on iOS and Mac OSX.
I'm very sceptical of the author's advice to use social media like Facebook and Twitter for dating.

Especially Twitter, were women are routinely harrassed by estranged men and will publicly shame them in return.

If I am not mistaken, Wikipedia says that more than half of current supply of ETH was distributed among initial investors. That’s also another part of supply formula to consider.

While I agree on the gist of what you're saying, and I've found the same agreement among "normal women" - that is regular people IRL outside the Twitter echo chamber - there is a politicised left v right tone to your post which irks me the wrong way and is absolutely unnecessary.

> Think how much money can be saved by just... not allowing anyone to drive there

Completely agree that it's a dumb idea, but I think the point is that converting 3 lanes + a hard shoulder to just 4 lanes is far cheaper and logistically easier than adding a whole extra lane.

I'm not sure if Highways England have any right to the land either side of a motorway, but if not I imagine spilling over into other people's land would be a huge sink of time and money.
Radiation exposure aside, I don’t see how you can establish a causal relationship. It might as well be that people who choose a travel-heavy job already have unhealthy lifestyles. As usual, association doesn’t mean causation.
They castigated land value tax as "the garden tax" too.
Smart roads contribute to some deaths but stop others:

"Overall, what the evidence shows is that in most ways, smart motorways are as safe as, or safer than, the conventional ones. But not in every way. The statistics suggest that fatal casualty rates are lower while injury rates are slightly higher."

> Smart Motorways were a Tory government idea

Not so. The first smart motorway was introduced in 2006 under the Blair government. They were expanded under Ruth Kelly, Labour Secretary of State for Transport in 2007 when Brown was PM. They were further extended when the coalition came to power in 2010, but smart motorways were not originally a “Tory idea”.
It also depends on the number of languages you already know and use, and way more important, if you are forced to use it or not.

We've started reverse engineering Dune a bit for a ScummVM engine and I think it would pose a severe challenge to cicoparser.

All the areas where you currently need to manually change cicoparser, Dune does everywhere. It jumps based on flags, makes indirect jumps and calls (Dune dynamically loads in video, pcm audio and midi drivers), it jumps wildly around, into, and out of the middle of other procedures, and so on. I'd love to see you try, though.

Secondly, I don't really see a great advantage of cicoparser over emulating the CPU. You've converted the disassembled code to assembler-in-C, but you haven't reverse engineered the application. If I've successfully converted an application with cicoparser, yes, I can run it, but I haven't learned much about how the original application works. It can be a good starting point for reverse engineering though.

We had an engine in ScummVM that was created with a similar process. The application was organized well enough (with clear function boundaries, etc.) that the engine could gradually be transitioned to proper C.
Yep. Part of the reason I put it in quotes is because I felt a little gross saying it myself :)

A sample size of 83 (open relationships) and 58 (gay/lesbian people) seems awfully low to draw any serious conclusions. It also does not break down sexuality by sex as far as I can see, so even if we take the data at face value it could say only that queer women are more likely to use a term other than "lesbian" than queer men are to use one other than "gay" (an effect that's also been noted on other studies). With that sample size I would also have expected at least a couple non-binary responses.

I've lived in large shared house with large land lot just 20 minutes away from Auckland. We made tons of parties, had many areas to lounge, herded sheep and cows, could lug boats, cars and all sort of other shit.

Big downside was lack of lack of pedestrian paths which my partner didn't like. For me having to move to a smaller house, further from metro really hit me hard. My partner can go on a walk now tho.

Personally, I think the Patreon model works great... except content creators charge too much for each tier. When you're subscribed to a hundred or more channels and want to compensate them for blocking their ads, $2 to $5 for each subscription adds up quick. In my case, I just overrode the Patreon subscription tier and limited each one to at most $1. I don't need exclusive Discord access and all that crap, it doesn't add too much value IMO.

So if content providers had monthly contribution systems (or better integration with third-party ones) to make it easier for viewers to donate), and if content creators were more sensible about what they charge (say, start at $0.25 a month) I could see this getting better traction.

High density cities are not the only way to have that. Another one is small villages where everything is grouped together. I easily walk to multiples of every category of place you listed even though I live in a very small town.

I don't believe Ether is a great store of value as OP claims because it has uncertain scarcity. OP neglected to mention that supply of Ether is unlimited and tends to change readily with scaling updates and is hence unpredictable.

Currently, the argument for scarcity looks good with EIP1559 where the gas fee will consist of a burned base fee and a tip to the miner resulting in overall lower fees causing a potentially deflationary supply. But Ethereum's scarcity is to a larger extends a moving target than say Bitcoin or Monero.

The other reasons for investing OP mentioned were enough for me to go deep a year ago: cash flow, network effects and developer tooling/adoption like no other L1 chain. I looked at other smart contract chain's developer resources for dapp dev and no other's come close to Ethereum. I have been learning Solidity dapp development in my free time since and can recommend the experience.

I don't think scarcity is a realistic point in the investment thesis.
Thank you. Regarding size, from an embedded perspective, do you think all these enums, in a very deep call stack can, ultimately, overflow my stack? Because for every function call there should be 8, or 16 or 24 or N bytes of stack-allocated space to hold these enums. Is this something embedded Rust developers keep in mind? Or perhaps worry about the extra copies it has to make when functions return?

Regarding code: because of the "to determine at runtime" of your parent comment, I thought there could be some runtime checks (extra code) for handling enums.
> so people in a control centre can stop the traffic in a lane if the need arises

This is what the public were led to believe. In practice one of the things revealed by the inquest into one of those deaths was that no one is actually responsible for monitoring those cameras, so marking the lane out of action is on a kind of best efforts basis.
Most people still use desktop software for large projects ? Adobe stuff, music software, basically any advanced authoring software - the performance of the web platform is just not there for projects measured in dozens of gigabytes of media, hundreds of AVX2-optimized plug-ins, etc (and it's a field with a large tradition of benchmarking software between each other to find the most efficient, see e.g. dawbench)

Counterfactual: I like spending time with people. If someone winds up around me, integrates into my social life, notices little things about my work habits and preferences, I will favor them. It’s not a dick waiving contest as much as a priority one.
I'm looking at doing something similar (in Scotland) and am investigating the possibility of a small, on-site bio-char reactor.

Without a huge amount of research so far my high level plan is to convert waste bio-mass into biochar to sequester the carbon and then use the biochar as a fertiliser; for drainage etc. As long as it doesn't get burned then it should also work as a carbon sink.
What mostly excites me about Ethereum ist the very vibrant ecosystem of developers and builders around it. You can think of NFTs and DeFi whatever you want, the sheer amount of new applications and innovative ideas on the ethereum blockchain has been mind-boggling.

My personal favorite is Sorare, which combines NFT collectibles with fantasy soccer. And sure, right now everything suffers from high gas prices but it looks like that might be solved over the next 12 months
The article mentions a promising first-year progress report (with reduced fatality rate). A related wikipedia article [1] also mentions fewer accidents in the pilot 2006 program:

> This has proved very successful, with journey times decreasing by 26% northbound and 9% southbound. Drivers can also better predict their journey times as the variability decreased by 27%. The average accident rate dropped from 5.2 to 1.5 per month.

It would be interesting to know what caused the project to start showing worse results.

To be fair, I don't think you can really compare many others to Monero, which is the only major cryto with the property of fungibility. Personally I consider that property so important that if a crypto doesn't consider it a first class citizen, I don't buy much or any of the crypto.
It will be interesting to see if interest rates in government controlled currencies and crypto currencies will stay diverged in the long run.

Without the distorting action of governments printing money, interest rates might be set by market forces in "crypto land".

This might lead to a long term situation where artificially low interest rates are paid in government controlled currencies, but market prices are paid in crypto currencies.

Or will cheap interest rates in government controlled currencies somehow bring down the interest rates in crypto currencies?

The 10 year yield of bonds in Europe is at 0%. While US bonds are currently at 1.5%. This might be an indicator, that rates in one currency will not completely control rates in other currencies.

The fact that something is scarce doesn't make it a store of value. Scarce simply means is in short supply, but prices aren't determined by supply alone, they are determined by supply and demand. Moreover, if an asset is in fixed supply, then its price is determined entirely by the demand. This means such an asset will only be a store of value if the demand for the asset remains strong over a long period of time, which is something the asset issuer/producer has zero influence on.

I just finished reading this very interesting article about Pirahã which seems nearly impossible for non-native speakers to learn.

Lots, I suspect. If you've ever worked for a large corporation, or even a SME whose growth in process has outstripped revenue and innovation growth, you've probably seen plenty of examples where the proof of work is as important - or more important - than the work itself.

I could cite a number of examples from my own career but, without naming names, one in particular stands out: a company that, at least for a time, developed an absolute obsession with Toyota-style whiteboards and A3 reports where - again, at least for a time - it became more important to deliver a good whiteboard presentation and A3 report than to deliver real value by doing the real work.

Every Wednesday there would be this monstrous and disruptive jamboree where the CEO and a dozen or two hangers-on would tour the office for half a day reviewing whiteboards for various parts of the business in rotation. It was a colossal waste of time for all involved and led to some of the least helpful and relevant examples of drive-by management I've ever seen, even years later.

Bear in mind the company was ~250 employees at the time and you'll form an idea of how wasteful this all was, especially when preparation time is taken into account. The irony of this all being based on Toyota's "lean" manufacturing processes shouldn't be lost on anyone.

This was many years ago though, and I believe they've moved past it. This story isn't particularly intended as a criticism of them either: I've certainly disappeared down my own share of pointless rabbit holes at times, hopefully learning from the experience along the way.

Finally, as a counterpoint, I wouldn't say there's nothing of value in the Toyota approach. Far from it. Nowadays - different company, obviously - I deliver a PDCA style report to the board on a weekly basis but my target is that it should take me no longer than 15 minutes to complete, and I certainly don't drag my whole team into any kind of regular dog and pony show. It is however a quick, easy way of letting people know how things are going, and ensuring that any problems (and solutions) are surfaced.
Monsters aren't turned off, it's the lowest difficulty. Going through the first door (use key is U) starts off with two grunts.
Finnish and Polish are relatively easy if you know Estonian or Czech. Arabic is probably easier if you know another Semitic language such as Hebrew, or at least another language written in the Arabic alphabet, such as Farsi or Urdu.

Also "hard" is difficult to quantify. Humans are odd and quirky, and so are the languages they create (with perhaps the exception of conlangs like Esperanto or computer languages, but even those inherit the idiosyncrasies of their creators - Perl is a good example). Every language has its weird and difficult aspects, some more than others.

Japanese is "hard" because it has a complex writing system, but (for an English speaker) the pronunciation and grammar aren't particularly difficult: in fact I'd argue that Japanese is probably easier to learn to pronounce for an Anglophone than, say, French, and the verbs are considerably easier too. And a Japanese speaker would have an advantage in understanding Chinese characters, even though the languages have no kinship. Having once taught English, I'd say it's no cakewalk either, even for speakers of other Germanic languages: the spelling system barely deserves the name "system" and English verbal phrases are downright weird (put up with == "tolerate"? How?).
Taking the outside lane out of use would reduce capacity proportionately.
There are generic distributed consensus algorithms out there. The most famous are Paxos and Raft. In theory, you can jam those on top of any system you like, as long as it has well-defined state transitions.

Making it fast - or usable at all in the presence of heavy contention - is another story. Distributing a write-heavy workload over a cluster is useless if the cluster ends up rejecting most updates because they get preempted by some other write. Solving that problem usually means analyzing the underlying system to figure out which parts need to be truly atomic and which you can get away with doing in parallel. That job is a) really complex and b) filled with opportunities to make significant performance gains in exchange for weaker safety guarantees, like losing committed writes in a crash, or allowing individual nodes to reorder independent writes.
