They’re not. The Mac Pro modular design has always been a lie. Yes, it’s modular, but there’s nothing you can put in there because there are no useful drivers.

If you like this project and are on Twitter, you might want to consider following @TubeTimeUS who besides this posts all manner of retrocomputing projects through all stages of the building, testing, and design tweaking process.
Who gets these funds? This is beginning to sound suspicious.
Current production methods use natural gas, specifically methane. Animal droppings will never supply enough methane to be a significant source of energy.

The goal is to eventually produce hydrogen from water, through electrolysis. We have tech for this, but it's very expensive compared to our methane methods. Current electrolyzers are used for industrial applications. Spain is currently planning a huge deployment of electrolyzers to make ammonia, mostly for fertilizer.

And honestly, electrolyzed hydrogen will mostly be used in industry, and maybe some long-haul transport, but almost certainly will never make sense for cars. We will probably see hydrogen converted to methanol or ammonia or something else that's easier to handle than hydrogen. Though I do hear that hydrogen could be used with current ocean freighters with only a 10% loss of capacity, so there's some potential there.
BSG?
Were you able to update to 8.0.34? We recently moved the deb and rpm repositories to prepare for this release. Installing the deb or rpm from https://1password.com/downloads/linux/ should setup the correct repo for future updates.

If you have 8.0.34, and still can't log-in you may be experiencing the issue yabones described. support@1password.com can provide you with more hands-on help.

Yes and no. If you spend 100BB to buy 51% and then take over the network, eth will have zero value and you loosed 100BB.
How Apple Stays on the Good Side of Chinese Authorities
I doubt bots can sleep..

That is, if Google have a bit for this at all. But I like your sense of humor if you say there is actual human in charge of this.
The OS appears to partition the processors, like linux cpuset stuff, with low priority threads getting given to the efficiency cores, so you basically keep the low priority background stuff off the performant cores.

How many is optimum is an interesting question, I would assume the apple peeps have a good idea and are on the money with this design.
I assumed they did.
> Large portions of New York, Chicago, Boston, and Philadelphia, if they burned down tomorrow, couldn’t be rebuilt, because according to modern zoning, their buildings don’t have “enough” parking.

As someone who lives in Philly, this is... disappointing. The most walkable parts of Philly are my favorite parts.
Perhaps. It wasn't obvious to me. I thought things like non-active browser tabs and various background daemons would easily occupy more than 4 efficiency cores. Though I suppose that has a lot to do with how they are implemented.
In order to be a validator in PoS (at least Ethereum's implementation) you need to lock up the funds, so not sure how an exchange would be particularly well-suited for that – they need to keep most of the coins on their books liquid so that the customers who actually own them can quickly trade them.
You don't double your money - at that point the network is compromised and nobody wants your coins. It's a guaranteed way to destroy Ethereum's value, but the only incentive to do it is to troll. Not too many entities globally looking to spend that much for a laugh, even if they could get the necessary funds in liquid form AND manage not to drive up price with their buy orders.
1.5 years in and Phoenix Liveview is perfect for internal webapps. Have personally seen development take half as much time with half as much people compared to traditional stacks. You don't need super rich interactions nor offline mode for internal apps, plus they might be harder to prio against customer-facing feature work. Elixir and LiveView are really powerful tools to have in your toolbelt. Even if you can't use Elixir, look at Hotwire or Livewire for a similar programming model. You won't get zero-setup fault tolerant components (nested LiveViews can crash and not take the entire page with it, and retry side effects automatically), but you'll still cut out the JS side of the development.

And we haven't even spoken about an app-aware repl that lets you manipulate/inspect your running app (even in prod). There are so many game-changing layers in this stack. It's hard to beat once you've explored it.

Very happy customer here.
In truth nobody knows. People hypothesize that recreating financial products on top of Ethereum (or Polkadot or Cordano) will result in competitive offerings.
But it is hard to predict what will actually happen.
That’s very authoritarian of you.
Presumably, if someone took that kind of control over Ethereum, its value would rapidly become zero.
Netflix paved their own way. They didn't just buy up some company
I have watched all of Naren Shankar's Expanse. It was revived by Amazon, and quite nicely. There are very few complaints among the fans, if any at all.
I kind of agree. The only thing that matters for me is a cost of ownership in $$$ over some period of time.

For the people who criticize as to why they've taken so long in shifting to a PoS model: consensus takes time, so does developing and testing something that definitively shouldn't go wrong.

Also, there's the inherent issue with Proof-of-Stake that Proof-of-Work doesn't have: the initial distribution of the coin has to be wide enough before it could feasibly self-maintain a PoS shift without being immediately vulnerable to consensus attacks. Ethereum is definitively mature enough by now, it wasn't a few years ago.
"The enemy of art is the absence of limitations" -Orson Welles
A 'transfer' means the party the rights were transferred from no longer has them, so from their point of view, it's not much different than a waiver. And there are numerous rights that cannot be transferred or waived. For example, California limits non-competes. For a closer example, there are moral rights to copyright, that in many jurisdictions cannot be sold:

I don't accept ETH due to removing the soft cap on EIP 669. Infinite inflation like doge coin.

I have a ton of Bitcoin transactions with friends. Originally through the blockchain, now we use coinbase email for free transfers.

I don't keep my stash on there, but I keep spending money in there.
Splitting water with electricity then recombining in the fuel cell back to electricity is extremely inefficient compared to just charging a battery with eletricity.
Governments don't typically own >50% of the current money supply.
You could say the decision to go to war is also ultimately under democratic control. Yes, it is, but it doesn't necessarily mean you should trust a politician or president when they want war.

Similarly, you shouldn't necessarily trust a central bank when they want to print money. (I'm not inherently opposed to it and think the pros probably outweigh the cons for some situations and intents; just saying accountability in cases like these isn't as simple as "it's the people's will".)
> It makes "Erlang" look superficially like Ruby and gets people who are ill-prepared to understand the Erlang mindset into the Erlang community.

I don't think it turned out to be true. For myself and many others, we wouldn't get into Beam without Elixir. As a Rubyist I don't understand what mindset I am missing?
There is actual, visible progress, plus a built-in self-destruct that will make continuing on the current chain basically impossible.
So, this is the second installment of Paul Graham's analysis of the various unwelcoming reactions to the MightyApp announcement a few weeks ago.

He is not completely wrong, but also visibly bitter.
I mean Mac Pros can easily be configured to $50,000+ machines from their base price of $6,000. They aren't aimed at the average joe. The majority of these things are being sold for business purposes in the first place with maybe a handful of sales to ultra rich enthusiasts.

The 40 core model is probably the replacement of the 28 core Xeon which is a $7,000 option.
It specifically calls out many the native integration features. What are you looking for in non electron apps that is missing in this version of app?
The USA has 50 states, none of which are nations (and thus not nation-states), but which together comprise the whole nation-state union. So the US government and US institutions tend to use "nation-state" more often than others do, because it's a useful disambiguation for them.
On paper, sure. In practice, having people overworked leads to compromises you never intend to make, simply due to exhaustion and burden clouding judgement values.
> Ummm... that's what I said. That's my point. It's become normalized for corporations to not take responsibility.

This is something completely different and unrelated...

1) All bank robbers wear clothes.

2) beckman466 wears clothes.

3) Therefore beckman466 is a bank robber.

But everyone wears clothes (i.e., not specifically bank robbers).

See! It's normalized to rob banks.

Designing for Failure
I've never had problems withdrawing cash, even in relatively repressive countries. Your credit card was probably blocked to prevent fraud because you didn't tell your bank you are planning to travel rather than your bank trying to censor your money.
PoW is a lot different, as burning real world resources (energy) brings sell-pressure to miners, whereas PoS only has cost of locking the funds. This means that regardless of the size of your "operation" cost scales very flat.

PoS also does not come with the property of innovation and disruption. In a PoW (especially ASIC-based) system you will find new ways to outperform your peers and disrupt old players.

PoW incentivices cheap energy in developing countries more than anything before. It is the fix for environmental problems.

Hi, thanks. I hadn't tried emacs 28 with native-comp but I just tried it now and I did encounter some problems. They looked like problems with (unreleased) emacs 28, not native comp issues specifically, right? Do feel free to open an issue or let me know what problems you encountered in case I can help.
The other actors in the network running validators.

Specifically you are punished for:

- Running the same validator twice (huge penalty, be careful!)

No. But the applications were all ideal cases, such as

* route/transform messages from one message queue to another

* process email bounces

* sign up/unsubscribe/verify email subscribers

It is can be a hassle to host that kind of service on an EC2 instance; try to lowball the size of your server and you might find the $5 a month server got overwhelmed, started swapping, and ran up your EBS bill by $200 a month.

Lambda functions are scalable down to very light workloads and also to very high workloads. That's important because large services often have obscure functions that run occasionally, or small services sometimes get a crazy high workload.

In those cases Lambda has your back.
If I ever move to Brazil, I look forward to welcoming all of Brazil to my family. I'm not sure how they get by alone.
Thank god this is the top comment. I came in here thinking, "that can't possibly be legal". I understand there's advantages to larger acquisitions but the past decades have been ridiculous. The fact that "AOL Time Warner" was ever allowed to exist is ridiculous.
Continuing to avoid the subject of the thread. excellent argument!

So your solution seems to be Unix tools on the desktop and cluttering your smartphone with 1000 apps. Both sets of software being incompatible with each other platform. Yeah, not quite what I was looking for.
Hey, sorry, missed this. Yes, it's LTE. One is T-Mobile's home internet product. The other is in a device I assembled myself, using an EM160G modem. ATT service.

My ping is high due to my location. I "hit the internet" in typically Dallas, TX, ~300 miles away. Sometimes it shows me in Colorado, Minnesota, Kansas, and Tennessee. It depends on what the LTE providers want to do with me!
Why aren't you doing it? It's still not clear that this can even be solved, so it's a risky venture to dedicate your life to.

No one would buy those from you, so at best you can burn money to burn other people's money at a premium.
Inherited a couple projects. Was interested at first, but now dislike it. At this point I think I'm just done with languages that don't have static typing. I hate having to remember or figure out things that my tools should just be able to tell me. Unproductive waste of time & effort.

We're not using it with Phoenix, but I'm also very, very done with RoR—after many years using it and getting sick of how dependably any long-lived RoR project I encountered turned into an onboarding-hell mess of "WTF does this do even? Which gem is this from? Is it from a gem?"—to which Elixir + Phoenix is often compared, so I don't think that would improve my experience.
Except, using the same kind of pooling that POW depends on, you can still get in at just about any price level. .01 Eth can be staked just as easily as 10,000 eth. And running a validator with 32 isn't nothing - you still have to keep a machine on and online 24/7 with an uncapped connection or pay someone to host that machine.
Bombing civilian buildings is not a way to decrease casualty numbers on both sides of a conflict. The more peaceful alternative to bombing civilian buildings is not sending leaflets and then bombing civilian buildings, it is declining to bomb civilian buildings.

Using slightly less violence than is available to you does not make you the good guy, especially when the violence you use is drastically higher than the violence that is even possible from the other side.
Systems Engineering Opportunities
It’s definitely not easy. In general it is very hard. Some applications have been optimized and for a few applications the fit is very natural (ie, where it is easy to avoid single threaded bottlenecks, or where you don’t need to pass data from core to core via the cache). But for general purpose workloads, it will take a lot of optimization.
I’ve been running into this sort of thing more and more and more. It’s crazy how many page rely on some kind of google tag manager event before they’ll load the real content or perform the main function of the page.

Don’t all developers have ad blockers (clearly not)? I understand managers not testing for this, but for my own work it’d never load for me as a Dev, even.
I don't know why this was downvoted. You see what you see. Maybe my experience with electron is tainted :D

I don't have any measurements, and I'm not really going to take any. It's just always felt slow. So I'll admit I should've perhaps been less prescriptive.
We can stop all ransomware by making it too expensive for reasonable people to do business by killing anyone we find creating the software anywhere in the world.
Ok I am on the wrong side of HN on this, but question - are drug laws more harmful because they exist or harmful because of the unequal and discriminatory enforcement?

If a law is used to systematically keep a section of society in its place (poverty, race, class whatever) then it kind of does not matter if the laws are repealed - the systemic abuse will continue some other way.

If those in society who are not systematically on the wrong side of the law, but are otherwise inconvenienced by access to drugs, then they see only upside.

If however we work to enforce the law equally, whatever the law is, we see all sorts of benefits. Kick down doors in penthouses in manhatten using ten SWAT officers and two helicopters, and we shall see re-evaluation of those tactics and those laws, but only if we apply the law equally.

It's interesting that "venture backing" is considered as something normal, a success even. Being approved by your rich overlords.
Workers have to pay huge tax, whereas corporations don't. So workers are less able to amass capital and because of that they are forced to share their business with VC.
If you were a rich VC owner, surely you would lobby politicians to ensure entrepreneurs are dependent on you.
I think this is sickening. Corporate feudalism?
How Joe Biden Decided to Run for President
Not OP, but I literally use Ethereum every day and have been for like 2 years now. I started using dapps in 2016, but in 2019 is when the network had a sufficient amount of things to do that I found myself using it daily.
A lot of this essay feels a lot like cold reading of tech workers. PG brings up the 8 richest people in America, but if you look at the top like 10-15, the VAST majority are tech CEOs. So that’s who we’re talking about here.

First, “independent-mindedness”. I’m guessing that if you survey people, approximately 95% of people would consider themselves “independent-minded”.

Then he talks about social awkwardness and intelligence. I would say about 90% of tech workers would consider themselves both of those things.

And competitiveness? Probably any CEO could be considered somewhat competitive. Just to succeed at that scale probably requires some competitiveness.

> While there are exclusives, one of the reasons Netflix, for example, doesn't have more content is that it has to balance the size of its catalog with the fact that consumers probably aren't mostly willing to pay $100/month.

I'm thinking more of the example of Disney changing the licensing terms on Netflix's former slate of Marvel based live action shows, before creating their own streaming service.

Streaming services want exclusives, even if it means buying the production company.

Netflix has been warning shareholders for several years of what it sees coming.

Could an informed reader briefly explain whether the current M1 chips are overly hard on their hard drives? I'm debating between 8GB and 16GB for an M1 Mac Mini. Between the two sizes my main concern is more about whether the swapping on the 8GB will kill the hard drive, rather than whether 8GB will be enough
Optimizing Hashmaps Even More
There reality of current equity valuations is such that, if sustained, there is some some pretty savage consolidation to come. The only limit is antitrust, or fear of.

$9bn is 0.5% of AMZN's current market cap, so $9bn represents a daily price fluctuation. They also have $45bn in cash reserves, so amazon could buy 5 MGMs without borrowing or issuing stock.

That's not even a lot! Apple, Google & FB have $200bn, $140bn & $65bn respectively. Dividends don't seem to be a thing, and it's basically impossible to invest this much cash internally. These companies don't have factories to build, or any kind of hard capital investments to make. Even an epic, blue sky cash sink like Waymo isn't capable of burning through their available capital, nevermind credit. Large capital investment at meaningful scale is not part these companies' culture, or competencies.

Acquisition is the only thing they can do, besides buying bitcoin and vanguard. Meanwhile, acquisitions bid up prices and exasperate the scenario further.

Morals and regulatory potential aside, does it not make sense for Tesla to buy and bury one or two major auto manufacturers? Ford is worth $50bn, GM is $80bn. Tesla is $600bn. Why bother competing?

^I'm purposely overstating, to make the provocative point... especially in regards to Tesla, who have no cash and other ways of doing capital investment anyway. Obviously, there is debt financing and other factors that complicate all of this.
I've always hoped hydrogen would have taken off. Since you can convert gas engines to run off of hydrogen it would be easier to move the market to hydrogen than electric. Allowing us to build out the infrastructure first, then transition vehicles over to fuel cell.

I like to be clear and differentiate between "dorks" and "nerds". Dorks are insufferable by definition. Nerds might sometimes act like dorks (ex: talking about bitcoin throughout a dinner), but nerds have, on balance, more redeeming qualities than the dork. There is a lot of overlap in the definition of the two[1][2]. I don't hear "dork" used much anymore -- it should be used more.
