But the increase in bitcoin's price does not come from the inflation relative to it. Even if bitcoin had been as inflationary as the dollar, its dollar value would've still increased by similar amounts.

The arguments surrounding deflation aren't necessarily wrong but it's hard to gauge the actual effects of it in practice at this stage where market forces are way more impactful.

A pruned node is a full node. A full node is any node that is fully validating. A pruned node is fully validating;

"Full nodes download every block and transaction and check them against Bitcoin's consensus rules." (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Full_node#Archival_Nodes)

Pruned nodes do just that.

The blockchain data structure means that once verified, you don't need to store old blocks. You only need the most recent blocks to verify new ones.

The nodes you're talking about, that store the entire blockchain, is called an archival node.

Anyway, encouraging people to install full nodes, pruned or not– which enforces the rules– improves Bitcoin's decentralization.[0]

No, in 2008 Yahoo was already seen as a failed company.

The biggest mistake they did in the late 90's is to stop being a tech company and be a "media company" instead.

So in 2008 they were still big but mostly running on momentum they built during the 90's and a couple acquisitions. They had Yahoo!Mail that was popular, their homepage was still popular because some people forgot to try something different, Flickr that they bought and was the most successful photo sharing website until the got overtaken by general purpose social networks, and Yahoo!Japan that was hugely popular but was a joint venture with Softbank. Maybe some other stuff I'm forgetting... But they didn't have anything that made people dream.

Right before 2008 they tried to join the social bandwagon with a horizontal social network across their properties, but it failed just like when Google tried to do the same a couple of years later with Google+.

However, as much as Yahoo was seen as a failed company, Microsoft didn't get their Nadella rebirth yet. It was still an old evil outdated company, run by Balmer, mocking the iPhone and claiming their Windows CE phones with their tiny start button and stylus were better.

So Microsoft didn't look super sexy either. It really looked like 2 losers trying to band together to fight the cool winner that Google was.
Is that true? What about GSuite?
I grew up watching Nick at Night, and I wish we still had shows like that today. They were idealized versions of Americana, but I think it was closer to what viewers wanted believed about America. I wish there were more shows today about rural communities, it might help us understand one another better.
Costco launching/selling products with own sales data is one thing.

To make it clear,
Here you should consider Amazon.com different entity than Amazon Seller Account. Now would you sell on amazon.com if amazon.com leaks your data to "amazon seller account" owner to boost his sales of a similar product, which you sell.

Moral thing is, Amazon seller division who deals with product directly sold by Amazon, should never have access to the data of other sellers.Fullstop.
Not anymore. Many ad networks have rolled out their 'CLS' solutions for the upcoming Google Web Vitals algo change, and ads don't jump about anymore on these networks.

Example ad networks that work well with delayed ads (that don't jump) include Mediavine and AdThrive.
Shareholders did sue, and the threat of the lawsuit meant the board had to devote a lot of energy towards the Microsoft acquisition offer, which was unfortunately why the offer was a win-win for Microsoft.

(Author here - sorry, just noticed this post got to HN a few days ago.)

True, I've considered describing that feature too, but in the end decided it would be too much deviation for the article that is already fairly large. That integration is very interesting on its own, but solves slightly different set of problems - that is, it can' t be used for bridging regular synchronous APIs like WASI in back-compat manner, but rather requires your entire stack to be built on top of async APIs.

If it is, that's indeed an even better solution, but most likely at least majority of your dependencies just use regular std:: APIs that are sync-only.

Describing those tradeoffs and doing meaningful comparison of two approaches feels like a whole separate blog post :)
And the common reasoning/criticism given is that Apple has good marketing and status but I think the real truth is that on average Apple’s products are executed well.

I have a Tile that I’ve used for a few years now and I’ve stopped relying on it because it simply doesn’t work. I could care less about the social network, just the super basic “tell it to make my keys make noise because they’re in a 20ft radius of me.”

I got an AirTag last week and it actually works. Every time. From the two furthest corners of my apartment and buried in my closet. It really is crazy how much of an advantage Apple has by designing their own hardware.
If you want to try it in SQLite (pros: no need to run a server or install anything since it's in the Python standard library, cons: not nearly as many advanced statistical analysis features as PostgreSQL) my sqlite-utils CLI tool may help here: it can import from CSV/TSV/JSON into a SQLite database: https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#inserti...
Thank you, I had never heard of ACID -- yeah, centralized vs. decentralized becomes fairly philosophical (eco vs. democratized arguments, etc).

To build on the discussion, I'm more amazed at blockchain's capabilities as a cooperation engine outside of the normal channels. To that end, I'm really surprised we haven't seen significant attrition in the current legal system to smart contract systems. I guess the lack of adoption more highlights just how 'customized' a 'standard' contract or dispute is in the real world.
Translators for the Dutch version of Windows 10 are definitely robots. For example, in the save webpage dialog of Edge, they translated “Webpage, complete” to “Webpagina, voltooid”. Voltooid means completed, as in a completed task. The correct translation would have been “Webpagina (volledig)”.

Similar errors are often found throughout programs new with Windows 10 and sentence structures are directly copied from English. I have never found a single error in Windows XP/7.
> First, this ignores the fact only one of the two founders of Clubhouse is white -- the other is a brown immigrant from a non-Western country. I doubt the author is unaware of this, and is simply reclassifying asians as "white" because it supports her narrative.

But the Rust type system cannot fully express a JSON Schema:

{
"type": "object",
"oneOf": [{
"required": ["kind", "foobar"],
"properties": {
"kind": {"enum": ["foo"]},
"foobar": {"type": "string"}
}
}, {
"required": ["kind", "barbaz"],
"properties": {
"kind": {"enum": ["bar"]},
"foobar": {"type": "number"},
"barbaz": {"type": "string"}
}
}]
}

Or am I wrong?
I think that was a deliberate choice by the author to consistently demonstrate CTEs.
When I use rust, I find compile times faster and more manageable than other languages due to the speed of iterative compiles. Compiling from scratch is very slow, but iterative compiles are faster than most of my golang compiles and faster than running a JS builder in most projects. To make it extra fast, I follow the instructions from the bevy game engine[1]. With that setup, the feedback loop is quick.

You need to consider whether there's a difference between physical mail and Email (esp. Gmail)? And whether Google's business model is monopolistic because its 'software' over the internet.
IMHO with YouTube niche content, it’s not so much the sort of “by external observation, that seemed to work out for them; so let’s cargo-cult it” that network television / movie studios do; but rather that content-creators within a niche are all part of the niche’s community — and the even-smaller community of “people who film themselves talking about that niche.” They might even all be personal friends. (Even if they’re not at first — someone who both shares your interests, and your videography side-hustle, is someone you’ll have a lot in common with! If you follow multiple channels on the same niche hobby, you’ll often find that they start to refer to one-another more and more, and then eventually there’s collabs, etc.)

As such, obviously, they talk with one-another a lot; and usually trust one-another enough to make each-other moderators/admins in their Twitch/Discord/etc. (I mean, often they attend one-anothers’ weddings. There’s a lot of trust there!) And so there’s a lot of “hey, this did work for me, and made me a lot of money! You should try it too!” advice going back and forth.

With the television networks / movie studios, the aping is the recipient’s idea. But with independent creators, it’s usually an external, unsolicited suggestion from another creator. The recipient of unsolicited advice will usually put a lot more thought into whether it really applies well to their situation, than they would if they came up with it themselves. (Unless they’re a channel whose whole “thing” is just copying what’s popular. But that doesn’t happen much in these niches, as you can’t really content-farm a niche.)

Mind you, within the “everyone in the niche is friends” paradigm, you do sometimes see newer creators seemingly aping others a lot — but what’s frequently happening there is that the creator has some experienced creators as patrons/producers for their videos, where the experienced creators have the goal of “bootstrapping” the channel quickly into success, and so are guiding the new creator into these cliche-but-popular video formats (and the new creator is going with it, because 1. they’re inexperienced and don’t know better; and 2. their channel doesn’t yet have a brand to tarnish — that’s something they can build after they have followers.)
Doesn't that produce toxic fumes?
What I meant is that elite universities like Harvard and Stanford are capturing something like 90% of those 3 sigma high school graduates, not that all Harvard and Stanford students are 3 sigma. That was not the case 100 years ago, and in the 1970s it was a rapidly increasing trend. Thank you for calling out this ambiguity.

It depends on what you mean by "Windows support". WSL is well-supported, I think: https://zaiste.net/os/nix/howtos/install-nix-windows-10/ .

In my experience, though, Windows 10 has proved really annoying. Over the past 8 weeks,

1) Windows 10 update has broken sound (I occasionally have to disable/enable the Realtek Audio device)

2) Windows 10 update has fixed sound (without seeming to have changed the Realtek Audio driver)

3) Has throttled the performance of my graphics card (hash rate on Autolykos V2 dropped by 10x after an update), without having had changed the graphics driver

4) Windows 10 Pro won't allow certain applications to be downloaded or installed (immediately quarantined) and Virus & Threat Protection isn't visible in the Control Panel. This is a common issue, apparently [1]

Generally, Windows 10 seems to take control of configuring the operating system away from the user while adding a bunch of "telemetry" and "application monitoring". Not too happy. I'm in the process of moving to NixOS as my primary system [2]. I'll boot from a flash drive with a live version of the OS including all applications and files I need for local development; the flash drive will mount the OS into RAM; I'll unplug the flash drive and continue my development from RAM; I'll shut down my machine at the end of the day and have a clean slate the next time I boot into the OS [3].

It sounds like tripping scrambled his brains a bit and he's having trouble reconciling this with the rational part of his brain.

There is no evidence that any of these spirits exist so I don't know why people seem to think that taking a hallucinogenic drug somehow connects them to another plane of existence or w/e.

As for why these spirits seem to have a history with humans, I can think of a number of possible explanations. Perhaps human brains are wired in such a way that we tend to hallucinate similar things? or perhaps the various religious symbols he was surrounded by somehow triggered specific thoughts? Or maybe the peruvian environment causes certain mental associations.

Either way, I feel like I've read and heard similar stories before. This seems like yet another story like "hey guys, so normally I'm a rational person, but I did some drugs and now I think higher-dimensional beings exist."

EDIT: Another interesting thought. It's been shown that AI tends to "compress" data into forms that seem weird and trippy when visualized. I wonder if the spirit Pachamama is really just how our brains tend to "compress" information about animals.
> Restated: it makes no sense to have private businesses running the entire electricity generation and delivery network. Yet here we are.

I suppose this was a restatement to point out a flaw in my previous point, but I do agree with the notion that critical national infrastructure should not involve private businesses.

Just because “here we are”, doesn’t mean it’s where we should be. There are different points of view on this so I don’t expect everyone to agree with this (market efficiencies, etc etc), but I just see it as a solution looking for a problem in many cases.

Downsizing the USPS, putting increasingly more onerous rules on it, then turning around and saying “well look, the private market is already doing so much, let’s just go with that”, seems shortsighted to me.
Fair. Also i just realized that cheques also use that format.

Colloquially though i dont see that format very much.
Other people still had the problem, even after you did that. Problem not solved?
That's a reasonable stance, but we're talking about FSD here. Your opinion about whether that's possible at all isn't particularly germane to whether or not Tesla or Waymo is closer.

And yes, I would say my bar is a little lower than yours seems to be, as hinted at in my first comment. As long as the system can respond with a solution that is equivalent or better than what a human driver would do the vast majority of the time, I see that as FSD.
What about privacy/security issue? Windows 10 we have no control with, but with Linux we do.
> The days of dedicated SQL programers are mostly gone.

I've never met a "dedicated SQL programmer" - all the C++ programmers I've worked with in the investment banking world were also expected to know, and did know, SQL pretty well - asking questions about it were normally part of the interview process.

See Reddit Wall Street Bets (WSB) for a sample of the culture, I think the most popular example would be the entire Game Stop debacle.

Lots of opinions on the matter but essentially, Wall Street players shorted the stock, “Main Street” day traders got wind of the play and pumped the stock (in one instance it would have resulted in loses in the billions of a single fund and probably bankrupted them), either that fund or a major investor of that fund is an investor in Robinhood which is an app used by a significant number of the main street option traders pumping game stop stock, Robinhood allegedly on the order of said investors/fund froze certain orders on game stop stock (and a few other meme stocks) for about 24-48 hours which sank the price of the stock and allowing Wall Street to minimize their losses and close their positions. Of course Robinhood has done what it could on their end to distance themself from the investor/fund and on more than one occasion made official statements why they stopped orders on the cherry picked stocks, basically falling on their own sword and more or less saying they were under funded and over leveraged.

You can sort of trace the recent crypto market pump to this event, as a result of Main Street throwing in the towel (right or wrong) because the collective acceptance market is rigged.
Technical debt is the concept that some features of your existing product can actually make it harder to deliver new features. When to address technical debt is quite literally the decision on when tech improvement will be more valuable than the next new feature.
Sorry was editing to address this point probably while you were typing your response. It's well taken, but we should be clear that it's not required.
Very true. So basically things that are good for the economy - labour mobility, flexibility in salaries, etc - are not good for friendship building. It's either or.
Pardon my ignorance, but wouldn't leaving rebar exposed like that lead to corrosion and a weaker structure? Seems like leaving rebar out in the open - literally the top of the building with no shielding - make the foundation for the new floors dangerous?
Thanks for responding to me... I went into a deep dive, since I didn't know that was a possibility. Unfortunately, there are no full-size split hot-swappable ergonomic boards.

I can deal with a separate numpad, and I can use shortcuts to replace media/brightness/volume keys, but you can take away my arrow keys when you can pry them out of my cold, dead hands ;-) I'm not ready to go the chording route of something like the ErgoDox.

I found the Cloud Nine C989M, not hot-swappable, but ANSI layout only, no ISO, so it's out of bounds.

The Keebio has the Quefrency, which I can kit out with a separate numpad and wrist rests, but that's not hot swappable, and 1.5 to 2x the Matias Ergo Pro.

I think for now, it'll have to be the Matias, and maybe later I'll decide it's worth the investment to go chorded, or invest 4x what I'm used to (as opposed to 2x)

As someone who has spent the past several months using Trailhead to learn Salesforce - even picking up some badges for things that seem practical this thread is making me reconsider my choices.

Have I wasted my time in learning Salesforce?

I know that there is what is effectively a cult following of Salesforce evangelists but I was hoping this would be valuable in the long term.
This article is so useful. It starts out with SQL basics but then quickly leaps into all kinds of PostgreSQL tricks that I didn't know about - binning, efficient sampling, calculating, even linear regression.
This just isn't really true. It depends on what type of product you're selling, but there are a huge number of independent ecommerce stores that do extremely well.

I sell dog treat mix (coopersdogtreats.com) - I do much better both in terms of margins and overall sales on my own website (with traffic coming primarily via paid FB ads) than on Amazon.

That's not even including other huge marketplaces like walmart.com, Chewy, Etsy, etc.

Amazon doesn't have a monopoly on small-seller logistics - I'm about to move all of my logistics over to a 3PL, and there are plenty that will cost-effectively work with startups (ShipBob, Shipmonk, etc. - just Google "ecommerce 3PL" and you'll see what I mean).

How much Amazon plays into your business obviously depends on the category, but the idea that it's impossible to compete in ecommerce unless you're on Amazon is an easily disproven myth.
You got two answers that skipped the reason: "To:" is a RFC822 header field. It's data in the message. Transport of a message to its destination is handled by a different layer (SMTP) which has its own addressing scheme that is stored outside of the the message[1]. It's entirely possible to omit the To: header, or include a value that doesn't match the actual recipient.

[1] And the reason for that is that message recipients in the era of UUCP had to store the "route" to the destination in-band and often needed to be munged per-site to be useful.
Flipping over to the "Talk" tab, I think it's clear that this isn't a good example of a Wikipedia article. Multiple comments about lack of neutral tone, and it's been flagged twice for removal (the first time, the decision was keep; the second, the decision was "no consensus.")

I don't know that this article has a long life ahead of it.
I don't see how this would be fundamentally different from what Facebook did with WhatsApp data ?
As a game developer I can confirm that not only is your description of what constitutes a glitch accurate, we use it that way in game development as well.

I'm a graphics programmer who previously used to work with UI and we often use the word glitch to refer to animation hiccups, graphics issues due to corrupted render buffers, etc.

In the Need For Speed games from Ghost, we had a visual effect of disturbances running across the screen which was shown when you were hit by an EMP or seriously damaged[0]. We sometimes referred to that visual effect internally as the "glitch shader".

edit: look at the UI elements: speedometer, mini map, etc.

Ya, I'm not really going to defend the current syntax past "function syntax is hard".

It's mixing up assigning a global variable, specifying that variables type, and destructuring an argument list into individual arguments, in one line. I've played at making my own language, and this is one part that I've never been satisfied with.

Personally I'd probably at least go with a `foo = <anonymous function>` syntax to split out the assigning part. But that's spending "strangeness budget" because that's not how C/Python/Java do it, and I can understand the decision to not spend that budget here...
