I was like this too, actually! Decided to learn to touch type (home row, pinky fingers and all that) last month, and I’m almost back up to my normal speed now. I’d say it’s worth it, significantly more comfortable with the potential to be much faster than I was, but it does kinda highlight how the usual QWERTY layout is, uh, really poorly optimized for touch typing
USDC, GUSD, BUSD, or DAI are the main 4 (in that order).

TUSD, PAX, and UST also exist.

It depends on what’s offered on your exchange but I think most people trust those first 4. Tether has a big target on it’s back with a lot of other stable-coins vying for it’s position.

You can in theory but not in practice. The person you're responding to was talking about practice, not theory. Practice is what matters in this case.
> If you're the best at mining, you get the most coins

Exactly, so I'm demonstrating that Bitcoins are printed out of thin air by doing some arithmetic. The fact that a concept of "counterfeit" doesn't even exist demonstrates that ALL of them are printed out of thin air. You don't need to pan for gold, you don't need to save a kitten, nothing. All you need is to punch some numbers into a GPU or ASIC and voila you have thin air printed Bitcoin.

As opposed to USD, where the person who has the most coins isn't the one who can print a physical dollar bill most efficiently. There is a notion of counterfeit, there is centralized governance, and thin air printing is not allowed at the threat of arrest by that governance.

First of all, shame on me for missing this, and thank you for pointing this out.

Unfortunately, this still does not solve the issue in question - we cannot figure out which rule was triggered. But it is definitely better than nothing, at least knowing what's blocked we can try creating something resembling a debugging tool.

> Thankfully, many unblock rules can be merged into the corresponding block rules in the form of "unless-domain" specifier.

Some of them can be handled this way, some of them cannot. Trying to handle all possible issues automatically right on the device is not at all as trivial as simply converting EasyList. And we need to do it that way (real-time, on device) because our goal is not to just convert a few lists, but also to provide maintainers with a tool they can use to develop their lists and test&fix them for Safari.

> Due to their design, content blocker extensions can guarantee privacy, unlike the ones that can run JS code.

Content blockers that can run JS code can guarantee privacy better by doing their work better than the others.

Anyways, let's not go further on this, we won't change each others view on this and we've already stated our positions.

My point was that we want to extend the declarative API, it has nothing to do with running JS.
Also relevant is that while they might be able to fight it that would involve substantial personal outlay of lawyer money by volunteers (all so they could continue to volunteer) and as unpaid volunteers the first thing attacked would likely be questions of standing.

I'm not sure whether that makes sense or not. I guess it's worth doing for revenge reasons, but if there are people willing to pay $1.1 for a $1 IOU, that seems like the perfect opportunity to decrease your deficit.

> Sure. But my point was that, in the aggregate, they weren't. Maybe by the early 2000s, there were more jobs there, their parents lived there, their friends were starting to be there, etc. So, yes, at some point especially college-educated young professionals started to pay an urban premium for the lifestyle. We'll see to what degree that continues.

I actually agree with `astrange that by the early 2000s, if not a tad earlier[0], millennials were moving in-town (though not because their parents lived there! the opposite, if anything!), but I completely disagree on the "why" - their claim was that it was because it was cheaper because suburbs had zoning that caused them to get too expensive. My claim is that it was a lifestyle thing, not a "forced out" thing.

[0] I can't speak firsthand to earlier, but there were a lot of new or newly-redone apartment buildings by the early 2000s, suggesting that the trend had been going for several years already.
You're moving the goalposts. Again.

Nobody said "common sense assessment of all of its aspects"; just that the idea of "taxation" appears "just" to the "common sense":

>>>Just as our common sense, which favors functional societies, sees taxation as just.

>>Our commen sense has nothing to do with support for income taxation.

Your goalpost-moving started with inserting "income" here.

Doesn't obesity preceding the HAES movement prove that HAES couldn't have caused the obesity epidemic?

If you found a 50% increase in lung cancer next to major highways, would your solution be to use peer pressure to encourage everyone to take shallower breaths and then berate people for not succumbing to peer pressure? Of course not because it's obvious to us that the cause is environmental and the correct approach is regulation to reduce the cause of the disease.

Treating obesity as a public health problem rather than a willpower problem is a) obviously a more sane approach and b) contrary to business interests.

You don't have to keep that much state in memory at all, actually. I'm not sure why you think that you do.

Most of the state resolution (eg. the auth chain) involves calculations of which you can cache the result without needing to care about the inputs beyond that - at least, unless you need to recalculate them once later if delayed events come in.

Ultimately, the performance problems that Synapse has are problems with Synapse's implementation choices (especially around the database schema), not with the protocol nor with the state resolution algorithm.

Yes, one example that is not widely known of what happens when the Lions of the Left have the power to do what they really want is public middle school algebra in SF. ("The Lion of the Left" was the self-given nickname of one of SF's most-loved talk show hosts back in the 90s.)

SF grandees noticed that some races tended to take geometry (the class after algebra I) more than others. The number one goal of public education, they claimed, was to "close the achievement gap", so they eliminated geometry from middle school. If no one took it, no one who didn't take it would be behind, so no gap.

But then they noticed that some races still took algebra I more often than other races. So they eliminated that, too. [1] No one, no matter how well prepared, would be allowed to take algebra in any public middle school. The best students would be required to take the same classes as the worst, for great justice. Achievement gap closed.

Except that better students still had four years in high school to try to catch up to where they would have been if not held back, and not all races were equally likely to do this.

So, for more justice, all public schools in SF were required to keep their best math students in the same classes with the worst all the way from K-10. They are now only allowed to be different individuals the final two years of HS. Anyone who wants to take calculus in a SF high school now has to scramble to cram two years (algebra II/trig & pre-calc) into 11th grade to (poorly) prepare for calculus in 12th--until that miscarriage of justice can be eliminated, too.

Those who can afford it go to work at tech companies where they use various means to silence the "haters" who resist, while sending their own children to private schools that don't have these policies.

Many of those who can't afford it have been moving out of the city to suburbs that have begun the process (lots of districts have now eliminated middle school geometry and advanced placement classes) but are still lagging behind SF in implementing full justice. (Big Tech is working on it, but pockets of resistance remain.)

Many of these are absent in New York, including very visible homeless encampments, so no, these are not in “just about every big city”; many of these are specific to West Coast cities due to a failure in public policy.

I've been using PayPal for 20 years for apps users pay a yearly fee for and never had a problem with them. The prices of the apps range from $30 to $50 a year so they're not a big ticket item and if a user requests a refund I issue it right away, even if they pass the "30 Day Refund" period I offer.

Most all the complaints I've seen about PayPal have to do with someone selling a pricey item and the buyer claims it did not meet their expectations. In those cases PayPal seems to side with the buyer and refunds their money, and that makes sense. They shouldn't be expected to arbitrate those issues because they are not in that business and have no legal authority to do so (as far as I know).

I honestly don't know what PayPal's legal obligations are in cases like that but it's clear they don't want to be in the business of enabling the defrauding of people.

In my case, PayPal has never been a problem for me.

No they aren't, that is the point made when: the deprecation is announced, preprocessor flags are added to cordon off the code and throw compilation warnings, finally - the code is deleted. The burden is then shifted onto the hardware producer to maintain their now disconnected code, and adapt to breaking changes blindly made by anyone not accounting for the situation (basically everyone). This obviously doesn't happen, because maintaining code for hardware they no longer sell isn't profitable. At most, the manufacturers will offer a few pre-compiled blobs for the most popular system configurations - which really sucks for anyone who actually subscribes to the ideals originally espoused by free software proponents.

Hmm, was writing a longer answer to you, but ended up agreeing without expecting to.

Bitfinex could either issue some USDT, convert it to USD and hand that to the influencer, or issue some USDT and hand that to the influencer. Can't really see the difference here, except if they hand over USDT that will hype the market a bit as well? As long as the conversion works they two are functionally the same.

If you're asking why Silicon Valley is in California at all, the answer is that the state bans all non-compete agreements and won't enforce ones made in other states. This is probably why it's not in Cambridge, though it doesn't explain anything more specific than that.

Companies generally preferred to be located in the suburbs because it was generally cheaper. But employees (notably including execs) also preferred to live there. Manufacturing facilities had absolutely been in cities in the past. Teradyne was in Boston. Gillette was in Boston. There are big pharma facilities in Kendall Square today. So it was at least in part access to workers that moved companies out of cities.

Well if you are much, much better at mining you can just fork it and take all the bitcoin? A side effect of this is you only need to be much better at mining for a short time.
Depends entirely on the velocity of money. Remember also that central banks can remove money by raising interest rates.

Tether is a ponzi just as other shitcoins are ponzi feeding bitcoin and now eth. This is what we learned in 2018. And now you have even more elaborate schemes. Bitcoin by itself cannot survive because you need constant flow of transactions to make it appear “active”. Similar to how people create shell companies across multiple borders to launder or hide money, you can do the same with crypto. Added bonus for crypto is that you can simultaneously pump prices while you’re laundering money.
If I were that influencer I would cash the check and then provide services.

Same with USDT. Cash it for Bitcoin and then provide services.
Everyone cashing out of the stock market now is also being paid by the people cashing in now. That's not what a Ponzi scheme is. The defining feature of a Ponzi scheme is that it claims to offer interest on deposits in excess of what the person running the scheme can actually earn, such that the only way to pay out that interest is by stealing from other people's deposits. It's this key feature that means that Ponzi schemes inevitably fail - those interest payments mean that the amount of money the scammer tells people they have in their accounts grows larger than the actual cash available at an exponential rate, and the only way to keep the scheme going is to find an exponentially increasing amount of new cash. Tether doesn't have this issue. They don't pay interest at all, so in theory there's absolutely no reason they can't structure the thing to be fully backed at all times (whilst probably also making money from interest themselves on the cash-like instruments they use to back it).

Don't overthink it. The companies you mentioned have websites that list job openings. Start applying.

Meanwhile, read up on their interview process and start preparing. Don't expect to just wing it and land a FAANG job. Also, keep your expectations realistic. It's fine to apply for managerial jobs at FAANG, of course, but those are some of the most competitive jobs in the world. Unless you have a an absolutely stunning track record in those 6 years of experience, your best bet is likely to be applying for IC roles and moving up later. Getting your foot in the door should be the focus, not getting the exact dream job you had in mind on day 1.

Tech didn't out price the people, nimby politics did. Average home owners in San Francisco have been owners for about 14 years. [1] Any new development basically hits a brick wall unless it's on a radioactive dump or ultra expensive downtown. You all remember the famous laundromat saga, those were not tech workers preventing new housing, the locals were. [2]

Anti gentrification policies almost always end up displacing the populations they are meant to protect. You don't want new apartments in a specific area because it may bring in newer crowds? Well guess what, those crowds will come any way, and now they can out price the people who live there.

Rent control is another problem, because long time residents won't move. And with no new inventory, the prices for pretty much any apartment that enters the market goes sky high. It's not the tech workers who displace the locals, they are anyway hunting for apartments in a different price range from the locals. It's the locals now just budgeting higher portions of their income towards rent and displacing other locals. This is exactly what happened in Berlin. [3]

And last but not the least, I think despite the nostalgia and how we remember SF differently from what it is now, yes there were quirky businesses all around. But there were only specific parts of the city that had them and quite frankly a lot of them just used to be replaced by newer businesses every couple of years. But what happened at some point was too much bureaucracy, red tape and politics crept into the cost of starting a business that now you have to sink almost a quarter of a million dollars before you can even start an ice cream shop. [4] It was partly the "locals" who created these problems.
