The most innovation is happening in financial products. There's no way for a developer or entrepreneur to experiment building in traditional finance without the support from large financial institutions. But in DeFi, there are financial applications built by teams in India, Africa, SE Asia, etc.

If you want an example of one innovation, look at flash loans. Flash loans provide the ability to atomicly borrow infinite money for the duration of a transaction, with no collateral or credit. This money can be used for arbitraging or just to provide working capital for a complex operation. If the loan isn't repaid by the end of the transaction, the whole transaction is cancelled.

-More likely, rules will toughen up.

The prime purpose of NATO is deterrence; no-one wants to be forced into a shooting war - hence I expect NATO to be very wary of accepting a member which may invoke article 5 pretty much the moment the accession ceremony is over.

The Ukraine would have a much easier time getting into NATO if relations with Russia were cordial; however, as the mere act of exercising their sovereignty to join an alliance of their choosing is sufficient to prevent cordial relations with Russia...

The problem, obviously, being that Russia is not content to be secure within its borders, but also desires to have a say in the affairs of neighbouring countries (Which, incidentally, makes these countries feel much less secure, hence making them more eager to join alliances to improve their lot, precisely the scenario Russia wishes to avoid.)

Sigh.

And for not using SSH for tunneling, well you could try openvpn for example which offers TCP- and UDP-based transports and if you're stuck with TCP then it merely nests TCP-in-TLS-in-TCP which is only 2 layers of flow control rather than TCP-in-SSH-in-TCP which is 3 layers of flow control.

Note that this is not universal network tuning advise. It's meant for bursty or bulk traffic in TCP tunnels over wired connections with low packet loss.
Disclaimer - i work at Netdata Cloud on ML.

This is one of the things i am focusing on most - how to package and then surface up "anomaly events" to the user that the user can then quickly digest and decide if they are or are not something that could represent an "incident". So human in the loop sort of ML to help assist and lower the cognitive load of all the charts.

We have a first step on this ladder via the python based anomalies collector that you could play around with to see if any use: https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/collectors/python.d.p...

That will give two summary aggregation type charts based on anomaly scores built off all the system.* charts by default (but can be configured however you want) - so, at each second, an anomaly probability for each chart and an anomaly flag if the model thinks that chart looked anomalous at that time.

We are also working on some other related projects to build on this capability out more and do it at the edge, in C++ or Go as opposed to Python, (or via a parent node) as cheap as possible so minimal, ideally negligible, impact on the agent itself. We should have some more features related to this in coming months as we are just trying to dogfood them internally a little first.

Anyone interested i'd love to hear some more feedback here or in this community megathread here: https://community.netdata.cloud/t/anomalies-collector-feedba... or just email me at analytics-ml-team@netdata.cloud
I do not necessarily disagree with you regarding what a server admin / ops personnel needs, however;

I recall seeing that claim made ~2 years ago, with data to back it up. I think many people forget that it is shipped (or statically compiled into an application that is shipped) on every android device (handset, TVs, etc), every Linux installation, every Windows installation and every OSX installation.

I do not know of any other library that has that penetration.

It sometimes looks like that in the lab, but in real life it doesn't work. Here are two of the MANY situations that result in incredibly misleading voltage readouts:

My battery is 80% charged, and then I go outside where it is 10 degC colder. Suddenly my battery voltage drops by 200mV and my battery looks 20% charged

My battery is 80% charged and then I start playing a video. The increased load drops the battery voltage and suddenly my battery looks 20% charged.

> More flights (its' virtue another discussion), more cars produced, more parties planned, food made, services rendered.

That would only be possible if we had previously been using the labour and capital to produce those things at less than 100% efficiency. That's not what happens. Businesses will always have been trying to operate as efficiently as possible. When demand increases they either have to increase prices or increase supply. Increasing prices will mean that someone else doesn't get the good or service. Increasing supply will mean employing extra labour or capital that would otherwise have been used elsewhere. Either way, spending money doesn't cause total productivity to increase.

(Unless of course the Fed screwed up and put us in a deflationary recession. In which case, yeah, extra spending would help. But that's only if they screwed up. Normally, they have already optimised the variable you're trying to adjust. Adjusting it away from the optimum will just cause them to push it back.)
From their explanation:

(3). We send the incorrect minor patches to the Linux community through email to seek their feedback.

(4). Once any maintainer of the community responds to the email, indicating “looks good”, we
immediately point out the introduced bug and request them to not go ahead to apply the patch. At the
same time, we point out the correct fixing of the bug and provide our proper patch. In all the three cases,
maintainers explicitly acknowledged and confirmed to not move forward with the incorrect patches. This
way, we ensure that the incorrect patches will not be adopted or committed into the Git tree of Linux.

Reminds me of a billboard I saw in the London tube once, with the big bold title "BEAT THE CROWDS" over a photo of lots of people crowded uncomfortably together on the platform. I wasn't sure if it was encouraging people to get up early and commute to their jobs, or to get a job with the police hitting lots of people with billy clubs. Either way, it was about crowd control.

Exactly, Ethereum is a better Store of Value than Bitcoin, not only because it is scarce, but because it provides utility, which creates demand.

People need ETH for:

* Paying transaction fees to use the network. For example, Visa is now settling payments with card issuers using USDC on Ethereum, so Visa needs to pay these fees with ETH.

* Collateral in financial applications: Over 11 million ETH (over $24 billion) have been locked as collateral in various financial protocols

* Staking & validating: In the same way that Bitcoin miners must purchase mining hardware to earn money, Eth2 validators must purchase ETH to earn staking rewards
Yikes, and what are they hoping to accomplish with this "research"?
(I came back and edited this answer completely.)

The difference is that when you give money to your children, you're not getting any goods or services in exchange. The transaction is making them richer, but you poorer by the same amount.

(Also, later when the children pay a mechanic the amount of total tax paid will be the same.)
As an European I find "how important the INSTITUTION of football is to Europeans" to be hyperbole.

Football is a very popular sport (and yes, entertainment) but equally most people are not fans and don't feel that strongly.

I feel that there is also a social class divide on this, especially in the UK (perhaps in other countries as well), and that Johnson's reaction was simply a cynical political calculation, not least taking into account the recent Conservative push in Northern working class areas. Politicians 'care' about football because it's a vote-winner within a certain demographics.
Of course. And the US had Trump leading it through the pandemic and a huge portion of the population who view mask wearing as a violation of fundamental rights. My point is that a country's status as "developing" doesn't seem to be the determining factor in how well they'll deal with it. Other factors are more important.
And still a big number of people that remember Yugoslavia will tell you they lived better, it was less crime, better education, less poverty, less inequality, more actual freedom.

Btw, the war and genocides are a result of "the west" messing up there. If "the west" wasn't so eager to destroy Yugoslavia none of the war and genocides would happen.
There is absolutely no problem with that. If you want to host it then do it yourself, nothing is stopping you with commercially permissive licenses.

If they removed their dictator from office, then it may be very likely that Russia will use the situation to do a land grab or finance instability.

This is of course unsustainable. So what are their options?

You have things backwards. It was an economic decline that helped to motivate the collapse of Yugoslavia. If things in Yugoslavia had stayed as nice as in the 1960s and early 1970s -- the era of the vikendica and middle-class holidays in Bali, -- nationalist grievances might not have gained ground.

I know most of us technical people here dismiss Ethereum as being just another new fangled pyramid scheme like Bitcoin and the others, but you've got to hand it to them, it is very well-disguised with plausible deniability (DApps, DeFi, etc.), and they keep on coming up with new ways to make it self-sustaining (ICOs, NFTs, etc.).
I just saw (5 mins ago) a CloudFormation stack lose resources - it happens all the time if one is not careful to prevent all modification outside of the tool (the same as other infrastructure provisioning tools). DELETE_FAILED is not a fun state to be in, nor is it one that can easily be reasoned about.

That said, I don’t think that “generates CloudFormation JSON” is a bad attribute of CDK, but it is a major difference between Pulumi and CDK. In particular it means arbitrary values cannot be used for control flow at run time with CDK, since the template has a static generation step. However, it also does not require an additional tool at runtime, which has value in some cases.
that's a bad-faith argument, it should instead be:

Do you really want to allow systematic killing of the opposition by current un-elected criminals holding on to power. Putin's intervention is not some kind of "hypothetical future danger or milestone in theoretic escalation" but has been fact since 1998.

Yeah, it's also included in VS classic, if you want to get super fancy. Does it get the same level of support as C#? Hardly. Do bugs get fixed as fast? Maybe.

I think there was a Microsoft article that summed it up nicely: there are millions of C# developers (ergo the focus), tens of thousands if not low hundreds of thousands of VB.Net developers (ergo the life support) and maybe hundreds or low thousands of F# developers (ergo the fact that Microsoft offers some integration points but expects the already small community to develop and polish the actual implementation).

It took F# several years to fully get supported on .NET Core (type providers and such). I know, because I was watching the Github issue for it for at least 2 years).

>I sincerely hope that thanks to SpaceX the cost of launching telescopes to space will become small enough to allow multiple space-based telescopes (and radio telescopes).

I think people have unreasonable expectations as to what SpaceX can do. I'm sure there are efficiencies to squeeze out of the business, but it's largely from the ops, and infrastructure around the rocket, not the rocket design itself ... design that has not changed significantly in 50 years.

Rockets themselves are as simple as you can get. It's fuel and exhaust and cargo . That's it. Reusability is fraught with issues and no guarantees it's cost effective (maintenance is expensive, reliability suffers, and decreased cargo/revenue due to needing to carry extra fuel for return). But even if reusability pans out, you're not going to get one (or more) orders of magnitude reduction in launch costs from where we are today. You'll get a few percentage points, maybe a few tens of percentage points and that's it.

One factor that people often overlooked is that it's not physically possible to widen some of the most congested sections of the motorway network in the UK. They are often over extended elevated sections, bridges, and tunnels.

When it is physically possible, the cost is prohibitive.

On balance, "Smart Motorways" can be safe - but poor driver behaviour is impossible to mitigate against. The automatic stopped vehicle detection should help things.

The government has said that it will scrap the older "Dynamic Hard Shoulder" sections of motorway (where the hard shoulder is brought into use as a traffic lane during busy times only - which some drivers clearly don't understand), and replace them all with "All Lanes Running" systems, where there is simply no hard shoulder.

That consistency should make it easier for drivers to know what to do in all cases, and help remove some of the accident risks.

Stopping on the hard shoulder (where there is one) is very dangerous by itself - again, due to poor driver behaviour. The presence of a hard shoulder does not eliminate accidents.
Best way is to apply on their website directly for a full-time position that meets your interest and skill level. They will then reach out to you if you have what they are looking for.

Okay, so looking at the first two tests - "Retrieve all documents" and "Get 1000 documents by ID" ...

If you switch the order around, does it make a difference to the benchmark? Because I suspect that the first test preloads all records into RAM, and the second test simply searches RAM, which is not what we usually do with SQLite. We don't cache all records before searching.

Switch those first two tests around, and lets see if it makes a difference.
