Not sure how it all works, but I assume it's broken down for a purchase on something like Coinbase card - eg. they bundle a load of card transactions into a ETH to fiat conversion for Visa

Strictly this problem is fairly local to the US - other countries manage to not have an engineered shortage of medically trained folks, and provide general, non-bankrupting, insurance schemes to pay them for their expertise.

さ is sometimes written with the parts joined, as an inverted ち: https://i1.sndcdn.com/avatars-000217370013-jmqo19-t240x240.j...

ゆ sometimes has the last stroke forming a loop: https://yu-yu1126.net/wp-content/themes/twentyseventeen-chil...

い is written with the parts joined, as an mirrowed "N": https://livedoor.blogimg.jp/benirabou/imgs/2/b/2b8291ac.jpg

こ I join the upper and lower parts, making it similar to 乙. The same for た and に. You can see it printed in the image above too.

し sometimes has no pronounced 'hook', becoming almost a vertical line. https://thumb.ac-illust.com/17/17111801d47c32db49b2d7fb94471...
There's also a variation that has a small 'beak' in the upper parte, as ら does. https://t.pimg.jp/032/836/278/1/32836278.jpg
I did no find a image with printed text of these variations quickly though.

I've travelled extensively, and actually found it quite common to be unable to withdraw funds from the ATMs of some banks.

In practice it has never been more that a nuisance, as I've just gone to a different bank's ATM and it's been fine.

Correct. For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using pass on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP account could be accessed through built-in software.
It is a system where you have skin in the game, the more skin in the game you have, the more power you have. Think it like a democracy where you are voting with your wallet.

The main difference with the fiat world is that with Ethereum you have transparency, and there is no corruption. You can't just bribe a politician to enact a rule you want. Everything that happens in the network is recorded permanently, and rules are not a suggestion, but a practical reality that can't be circumvented.
> ETH is competing against USD, not against BTC. Bitcoin is competing against gold.

If true, this means that every argument comparing BTC to fiat is bullshit.

Given that most arguments I see in favor of BTC compare it to fiat, this doesn’t speak well to the understanding of those who hold it.

Given that BTC’s value is predicated purely on the beliefs of those who hold it, a systematic misunderstanding like this suggests problems in store.
> For what it's worth a company that is valued at between 1.5 and 2 trillion usd has to come with evidence of how it isn't a monopoly/abusing its monopoly position,

There is no good evidence I'm aware of which suggests that Amazon is a monopoly or anything like one in any market I'm aware of: certainly not in retail to consumers, nor in AWS (to pick a frequent target of criticism that I see on this site). If you have evidence which suggests Amazon is a monopolist in some market it competes in, please cite it.

Amazon is large because it is successful. It is successful because it generally offers products cheaply and delivers them quickly. Period.

That is exactly the case that you do not want antitrust law to punish. Antitrust should preserve competition while not punishing successful firms.

It is indeed true that one way to become valuable is to acquire a monopoly position in a market. That is not the only way. And it is not the way that Amazon has become such a valuable company.
Ethereum has already proven that there's no way to prevent social forks, correct? The DAO incident comes to mind as a very controversial instance, but there are others. Ultimately, it's up to the individual nodes to decide what code they want to run and what rules they want to use to decide what the chain is. I'm not sure I understand how PoS makes this worse (although maybe there's something I'm missing)
PoS is more equitable than endgame PoW. With PoS anyone with any amount of capital can secure the network. Even $10 can via decentralized stake pools.

With endgame PoW only the rich can acquire mining ASICs and locate them in cheap/free (stolen) electricity zones. The vast majority of the world is entirely excluded from PoW mining BTC because the cost of electricity in their region makes mining unprofitable.
True enough. Memory is also often a major constraint.

True, but batteries are the less-well-solved half of the equation, to which the other half is renewable energy such as wind and solar.

The headline is using "batteries" as a shortcut for that whole system, effectively treating the energy-generation step as a solved problem. It's not, but it's on its way at a rate which shifts a lot of focus to the storage part.

The renewables have effectively made coal obsolete, though it still relies on existing systems (mostly natural gas, but also nuclear and hydro) to provide base load. Each of those has some environmental concern that batteries + renewables can mostly obviate.
To disambiguate: I don't mean formal verification like seL4, I mean it hasn't been thoroughly audited to show it is reasonably secure. Docker security of images and running containers is pretty shit as I brought up on GH in the beginning. Developers just shrugged it off and focused on whiz-bang features.

The conflation of what amounts to fancy Linux cgroups trickery with hypervisors is a depressing misunderstanding of isolation.
Music has some compulsory licensing, it's limited in pretty significant ways though.

That's why Taylor Swift was able to force her music off of Spotify and they couldn't do anything about it (such as just ignore her and pay a default fee). Obviously if Spotify could have done so at the time they'd have just paid a default compulsory rate and kept her popular albums on their network.

Perhaps it's a generational thing, but a lot of people never get over high school.

Fortunately for my generation, we didn't scrimmage or skate with helmets so we don't remember who wronged us. IDK how later generations manage.
What stops chain forks to begin with? This isn't a flaw that's limited to PoS.
> If a person thinks that fiat payments work well, he hasn't really travelled yet to different cultures.

Count me among the people who have travelled and never encountered problems. I always bring two cards in case something weird happens, but I’ve never had to use the backup.

If established banking cards aren’t working in a country, it seems unlikely that relatively recent cryptocurrency would be working any better at their banking institutions. If their banks can’t take your bank card in exchange for cash, I doubt they’re going to be set up to take your Bitcoin.
This is a big deal for IoT, and ubiquitous sensing. It's not there yet, but you can see that a few years down the road we might be able to power very simple sensors via existing wireless networks (for free). That will allow us to put sensors on everything.

By the time you can build the infra, we'll have replaced all the ICE cars to EV. And the cost to build the infra far exceeds the cost to replace all ICE to EV and install electric chargers everywhere, too.
Even worse than simply leaking, hydrogen can diffuse into the crystal structure of metals and cause havoc with the material properties. It's definitely not as friendly as hydraulic oil.

The parental control app that rewards your children's behavior and expert advice
ETH wont, and shouldn't migrate to PoS. PoS is a scam -- a trick, a reinvention of existing corrupt economic models.
It throws out the greatest part of decentralized cryptocurrencies -- trustless, independently verifiable, auto-adjusting to external conditions, hard to fake proof of work. It replaces it with shell games and chicanery.
I am very pro proof of work. The energy usage is a good thing. We can deal with the emissions from generation out of band, it is not the protocols problem.

Two primary concerns, technical feasibility and political strife:

I have my extreme doubts that you can move a chain like this without causing it to collapse. As yet all we have seen out of the eth camp is more broken proof of concepts -- not a viable model for a potentially trillion dollar economy. How to you replace a jet engine mid flight? (You don't. Unless you like not safely landing).

PoS coin is worthless coin. If you want to have your expensive-to-mine gas coin be worth something, you have to make it hard to acquire. My second concern is that if they do manage to 'migrate', enough folks will ignore this and keep mining. This is a problem today with more contentious PoW hard forks.

Ultimately this behavior will lead to more chain forks, which unlike in the ETC days actually is a big deal today. Whos USDT USDC etc is the real coin? The eth1 PoW 'legacy' network, or the eth2 'pos' chain, or what about the eth1-a/eth1-b fork when the first political staking challenges come up (see all world religion schisms).
PoW solves this problem. One truth, enforced by universal energy usage. Not power players arguing over interpretations of religious text.
4K+ video production workflows will happily eat that many cores anytime.

Or you could run up to 5 Electron apps simultaneously!
There will be a new PoW chain and a new PoS chain. The old chain will technically exist but mining on it will be impractical. There is no longer enough interest from miners to make the new PoW chain the majority, so the winners of this hard fork will be recognized as "Ethereum" and the other miners will be relegated to a less influential chain. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26441399
Is it possible/likely that exchanges are going to abuse their position and secretly use everyone else's ETH for proof of stake while they're holding it?
my read on the two has always been:

nerd: intellectually inclined

geek: unusually interested in some hobby

And of course being one, or both, or none, and liking math, or liking star wars, or both, or disliking math, or disliking star wars, etc. are all valid combinations.
Hydrogen production is not well suited to be run depending on the power supply in the grid due to the high prices of the production facilities. If you keep electric cars plugged in, they are far better suited to absorb high supply situations at a much higher efficiency.
The courts are the ultimate source of legitimacy.

Every time an executive defies the courts they erode the basis of their own power, and their public image as a legitimate executive.

Look at what actually happens to executives who defy the courts. The level and types of protest people feel are legitimate increases dramatically. Once the court said that "well technically the emergency order only lasts for 30 days" the anti-mask brigade was much more vocal and flagrant about it.

I’d take PG more seriously if he actually had to work to maintain his flock. Folks who struck it rich in the lottery talk about how suddenly everyone wanted to be their friend.

I’ve been rummaging around the human experience for 41 years, applying technology to problems at public uni and big corp, building houses, growing food, hunting, earned degrees in electrical engineering and math.

To me that’s all there is, to go do directly.

All this feels like is someone who is riding off that lottery ticket.

That is, I’m not seeing an information advantage. Just a political capital advantage.

I thought we did away with allegiance to unelected political agents?
That is correct, to run an on-chain transaction is fairly expensive. There is a lot of ongoing work to address this: Layer 2 solutions like optimistic rollup, arbitrum, etc. EIP-1559 itself will address this problem on layer 1. But the ecosystem is not mature yet. If/when the scaling problem is finally solved, the legacy financial system will change rapidly.
You can DDoS normal, non-validating nodes, and if they go offline, they can be unsure which chain is the true chain, because they were not around.. This means your laptop can never sleep, unlike in Bitcoin, where full nodes may go offline and catch up later.

People who control stake can refuse to include (censor) transactions, as there is no market competition for transaction inclusion like in PoW. In PoW, if 51% of network power is censoring transactions, then censored transactions can attach a higher fee, which competing miners will use to buy more equipment and mine the censored transactions.

These are the ones I know about, that I learned in an evening of research.
> It feels good to tax a corporation, but it's much more practical, efficient, and transparent to keep taxes at the personal and consumer level.

It's also worth pointing out that a business is subject to a number of taxes: property tax, income tax, various fees for operating a business, infrastructure upgrades (to support the tonnage of Amazon trucks), and more. I would like to think that the complete re-build of a highway interchange and re-placement of a normal asphalt street to a heavy-duty concrete road meant for hauling tons of freight, the installation of water and power connections, and everything else a company would need for a large installation would be paid for by them. But we all know these are seen as infrastructure investments that will (hopefully) lure more companies to the area (companies that WON'T be given all of the breaks) now that an anchor tenant is there and justifying a long-term investment.
Apologies if this comes off rude, but GTK has increasingly becoming Gnome Toolkit, and notion of it on other platforms/DEs gets hand waived away.

It may suit some people's taste, it is more open than Qt in some aspects and it has better language integration by virtue of being written in C.

But, as a Plasma/i3 user, I avoid GTK apps as much as possible. Thankfully At/KDE apps are plenty and fully functional.
This does look amazing. Reading the announcement show a level of deep integration not just for Linux, but for individual distributions and UI’s.
Well, perhaps it does take some getting used to, but as soon as you appreciate its simplicity, you'll most likely love it. Former REBOL addict speaking. Have a look at this QuickSort implementation -> https://arturo-lang.io/playground?example=sorting%20algorith...

I would call this rather sweet.
Not sure that holds up to scrutiny, as often when people are tired and overworked their output can dip negative.

It's fine for a few days, but after that it's a false economy.
Almost anyone reading this would think "oh wow, he's talking about me!" Like you point out, his criteria and statements are vague enough that anyone would think it applies to them. Such only need to follow PG's advice - be "fierce", ie, be an asshole to people to get ahead.

> I forgot everyone owns and is willing to own a Mac.

You didn't specify a platform, you just asked if something is possible in the future. I said its possible now.

If your chosen platform vendor doesn't want to support that use-case, that's their and your issue, not mine.
Hydrogen makes much more sense for container ships, where electric batteries can't be made practical, but hydrogen storage can be scaled easily.
Agreed. I use chalk in the gym as well, and I'd like to see a picture of it to see how it's different from what people use currently.

As an aside, I was caught without chalk the other day and bought some liquid chalk from a climbing shop. I quite liked it as thicker than usual - more like a moisturiser than a pourable liquid.
Ethereum proof of work made it so the owners of the coins could be independent from the owners of the mining operations, even if in practice many miners end up keeping most of the block rewards themselves and only reinvesting what they need in new infrastructure and to maintain what they already have. Proof of stake makes it so the miners and holders are now the same (you stake the coins that you have, or you pool them up with others), however the cost to wreck the chain is much greater than it would have been 3-4 years ago.

The whole idea is that Ether is so spread out now, it'd be unfeasible for someone to snatch up enough of it for an attack, in a similar way to how an ever-increasing difficulty makes it harder for a hostile actor to coordinate enough of it to make such attack.
Idk, I am no expert but I tend to believe that a design that is shipped to millions of customers and only a handful report problems is probably designed better than what the average youtuber or forum commenter can assess. Apple is known to remove elements from their design in order to optimize. That big and heavy heat pipe seems like a perfect element to remove.

And maybe it is a mistake. That happened before and they iterated over it and turned the design into an advantage most of the times.

Judging and say "does nothing" is very naive in my opinion and I am pretty confident that everything in that designed is planned pretty accurately.
Overtime != overwork. You've probably programmed something, at some point, where you were excited to work on it from morning to night? Where you lose track of hours, forget to eat meals and completely in the zone? That could easily be the case with these engineers, working on such a historical project and consequential update.
There are no economies of scale in PoW. At least for longer term. Cost of energy rises locally the more you use it. Cheap energy is somewhat equally distributed around the globe, which ensures geographical decentralization.
Either Google doesn't care < this one IMO

Caring removes money from them, at least in add case, so better to shift the bullshit to their "users", who are really the product being sold to advertisers, so who cares. Customer is always right, its just we are not the customer.
I hope this means i will be able to buy a graphics card soon.
How do you deal with deployments and not losing things you could otherwise persist in Redis or Memcached? Of is your application stateless in that way?
Perhaps state actors who can print free money would be interested in performing these attacks. Say if a coin was owned predominantly by citizens of one country or if the countries' infrastructure was running on ETH technologies.

Like suppose the banking system was running on ETH. Or if Colonial Pipelines used ETH.

Honestly you can build quite a list if we are not constrained with dev tools only.
The issue is that we call pure web apps "apps" too now, so it can be hard to differentiate. We just released desktop clients (electron) for our platform, and native was a term I didn't want to use but it is quite helpful to distinguish the two.
Right. But surely that's someone abusing the system. It's not the system itself.
>It feels good to tax a corporation, but it's much more practical, efficient, and transparent to keep taxes at the personal and consumer level.

That is a very, very bold claim. Please provide bold evidence or reasoning.

>The right answer is to take such tools out of politician's hands by ending the taxes in the first place.

So there is a corrupt system, and the only solution is to just destroy it? I don't get it.
Thanks! It means a lot to me.

Please, let me know in case you have any issues or questions. I'm all ears! :)
Amazon and FAMGAN in general's take is far, far more than is recognized.

Example: datacenters that cost more than $xxx million to build received special tax breaks, which means that only the largest, big tech companies received them.

https://www.crn.com/news/data-center/sweeping-data-center-ta...

No sales taxes.... but you must spend a minimum of 50 million a year for 5 years.

Company that wants to build a mid size, 30 million dollar datacenter? No tax breaks. This is a barrier to entry for smaller would-be competitors and those that would prefer to have their own machines.
