> bunny-hopping is usually frame-perfect

If you mean the timing of the jump, that's not the case in Quake and its (spiritual and official) successors. You can press the jump key early and hold it until after you land.

(If you mean optimal bunnyhopping is frame-perfect, maybe so, but it's not the kind of mechanic you're expected to master in the sense of performing it optimally; it's more like aiming in FPS games, or most skills in real sports, in that top-level players still vary in their proficiency and even the best are imperfect.)

Most probably no. Instead of calculating the hash of whole file, IPFS chunks a file, calculates the hash of each chunk and turns them into a DAG of hashes (Merkle DAG). Also because there are multiple ways to construct the Merkle DAG, it's possible that same file can have different hashes.
What's the insecure phase to grow out of? Like CCP is insecure, as in like the connotation of a Napoleon complex driving a giant pickup truck?

So I guess this is a litmus test for cryptoanarchists: condemn the use of state coercion to mandate the use of Bitcoin or cheer the financial gains Bitcoin holders stand to make?
> I think the idea was to make it look "familiar" to engineers

I'm not so sure. I'm fairly certain that at least VHDL existed before FPGAs were invented. I think they are programming language-like so that they can be somewhat easily verified for syntax errors and undergo some static analysis.

You are 100% correct that these languages don't match up with the type of work you use these languages for. I find C# and Go (and other languages) to be pretty intuitive in a lot of ways, and HDLs are the exact opposite of intuitive, to me. I am sure it would be easier for me to learn to speak, write, and read Icelandic than it would be for me to learn VHDL or Verilog.
Interesting! I always thought it was related to the organization named RIPE, which doesn’t seem to be the case.

And so to I doin't think (or minimally hope) that the US and democratic coalitions would risk looking weak by backing down and letting CCP call a bluff and thus ending our hegemony.
Actually a lot of analysts had said that Elon’s bullish tweets were creating to much unsustainable upward momentum on the charts. It wasn’t welcome.

If you're going to censor someone's github profile, actually censor it. It took exactly 5 seconds to find the github profile in question, so you might as well either out them at this point or black out ALL the identifying information (there is exactly one google search result). I would have expected his user pic to be a stock photo used by a burner account or something, but it appears to be unique.

Anyway, very interesting research. I'm very curious why anyone would even see fit to make flashcards about this sort of thing, what makes it worth memorizing?
You don't consider there to be marked change between the last few years and the previous 20? in law, application of authoritarian power, and crackdown on speech and democracy movements?
I'm reminded of the "sailing downwind faster than the wind" fiasco. One guy had an intuition that said it could be done, but everyone pooh-poohed it on energy conservation grounds until he built a full-scale machine and actually did it.

Perpetual motion machines (and unethical behavior, another good example in this thread) really do need to be shot down fast, but they're rarer than they might appear, and sometimes an idea that looks like PMM-level fantasy can be brought to reality by modest changes in its assumptions. I like the idea of literally saying "what about energy conservation?" If you say that and actually have an open mind, maybe you can figure out how the energy budget really does add up, and even help figure it out.

You still need to be prepared to deliver a hard TWW when needed. When? No blog post can answer this. It's a judgment call. As usual, there are no shortcuts.

Been in the industry for 15 years. I never met any situation like the one described in the post.

People say “that won’t work because X”, and others reply “yes it might work because Y”

Usually things end up with “let’s give it a shot” or everybody agreeing that it won’t work.

In a few rare cases, people disagree and the discussion can heat up, but eventually the thing that’s decided will or will not work, and resolution will come from there.

Please don’t just box people in non-existing “that-won’t-work” persona .

Well, it this is really true and going to happen, I am glad.

In 2014 I was writing a book on Bitcoin, which I never finished. In the various interviews I did with influential people at the time (Yanis Varoufakis, Rick Falkvinge, Chris Dixon, etc), when offering my view, I used to say that the tipping point would have been a country adopting Bitcoin as currency, and guessing it was going to happen by 2020.

I was wrong, but not by much. And believing so in 2014 wasn't that common.
I'm not sure I agree with the the last 2 paragraphs. Maybe it could be abused by political types but I feel like making someone write out their idea forces them to think it through and sets up some filter for ideas. Honestly if you can't get your idea through something as simple as writing a proposal then how do you expect to it get through any other challenges that come up during implementation. Also, why aren't people following through on their great ideas? If they're actually so useful why are they sitting a graveyard of ideas?

Conclusion is that there's a risk with browser extensions, which is pretty much common knowledge at this stage. Don't use them. Bit disappointed in that conclusion, the intro was pitching for more.

I'm not sure the fact that it's been going on for years makes it any less serious. It's an act of intimidation that is designed to drain the defense budget of Taiwan ([1]) while desensitizing and normalizing these incursions into Taiwanese air space. The carrots that the CCP are offering aren't very appetizing, but the way that they are wielding this massive sledgehammer of a stick forces Taiwan to stay at the negotiation table. There is nothing like what is happening there anywhere else in the world right now. There is a reason that they have spent billions of dollars on air defenses, they are rightfully terrified. China has made their intentions clear, they own Taiwan and they will bring them back into the fold one way or another.

> It went poorly

Just the interview? Or anything language related?
I quite liked that blog post as well. Unfortunately, I discovered recently that it is, if not wrong, then at least misleading. For one thing, it misrepresents Clendinnen: when she states that the incoming tlatoani is called ‘our lord, our executioner and our enemy’, it is as part of a reminder that such a powerful leader must act benevolently towards his people. Indeed, the whole thing was meant to be a speech delivered to the incoming tlatoani, in much the same way that we might remind a president of their power over millions of people’s lives. (Also, Classical Nāhuatl rhetoric relies heavily on allusion and parallelism, and doesn’t translate to English very well.) Furthermore, the blog post treats Tezcatlipoca as very much an evil god; though this seems a sensible interpretation to us, my understanding is that the Aztecs certainly did not think this way. Given that it has this number of obvious mistakes, I wouldn’t really trust this blog post.

(Source: I linked to that post on another forum, and someone else with an interest in the Aztecs went through it and came to the conclusions above.)

I'm sorry if my post came off as gatekeeping. I'm not saying that academic programming is worthless. My argument is that there's a difference between using a language and creating one. Systems programmers, programming language theorists, and CS researchers are among the best suited people to creating a robust language for any domain. My quarrel is not that Julia is targeted towards academic programmers, but that overfocus on academic programming leaves sometimes leaves the developers myopic when it comes to language decisions.

As an aside, I don't see why Rust couldn't seep into "anything seriously academic". C++ is widely used, and I've seen a gradual uptick in the usage of RAII. Rust seems like the next step, especially with the effort put into the ecosystem and learning materials. Sure, it might come slower than in domains where safe memory management is critical, but I don't think the needs of academics are fundamentally different here.
Most insightful, same excuse for beigeboxing back in the day but with fiber/glass. Wow.
Well with AC power you get zero crossings anyways. If you can't survive a microsecond without power, don't use AC.

It'll be interesting to see how it plays out. I expect a catastrophe, but anything could happen. I suspect Bukele will have more influence on the outcome than Mallers or the users.
The sensible thing after a burnout seems to be more mindfulness. Paying attention when something is too much and then reducing it. I personally would not divide it between work and spare time. It makes sense to me, to reduce all sources of stress. Minimalism comes to mind. Overall less critical systems, which could drag you down.

You can reduce stressful problems by automating them away. So I would just start with your own problems, going step by step and focusing on low maintenance and immediate benefits. I would set very low expectations and always be aware of the risk you are taking for your health. Maybe you will get better in the future to push something to the next level. Worst case, your own life got easier.

No. I guess I read more ebooks, just because I read a vast variety of books and papers. But (at age 49) I know who my favourite writers are, and never stop rereading them—e.g. Emerson, Stevenson, Chesterton, Collingwood, Putnam, Hazlitt, Fulghum, W James. Just recently I ordered online some of the Collingwood, Chesterton and Hazlitt books I'd never owned physically. I got a tablet which is great for reading ebooks in the park, but actual books are far better for bath, toilet..and anywhere. And writing in the margins and marking passages is essential! e.g. I have just about every book of Nietzsche's heavily marked and argued with on almost every page. Also am halfway through reading aloud Jane Eyre to the SO. We've watched a lot of movies together. She, a fan of 'period dramas', was shocked to realize how little any movie version of Jane Eyre (or any great novel) would or could give you of the book—virtually nothing.
100% Agree on Indonesia for economic future. I've spent so much time in HK, PH and Indonesia and Indonesia has always impressed me with ease of business, infrastructure and somewhat "freedoms."

There is internet censorship in all three though, and most of SEA. Philippines Censorship is mostly about pornography and going after some people that talk bad about politicians. Indonesia is same, but they have a more compelling action to stop both and actively DNS hijack if you use default ISP dns configs. Indonesia also actively semi blocks reddit on some ISP's.

If you set the DNS A record correct then it works fine, so it's very trivial to bypass, but that is something to be aware off for the region.

The one thing though is the navy of both the Philippines and Indonesia are not armed, nor strong enough to defend against China. The island infrastructure is critical for their defense, but it will also hamper logistics greatly, still. Satellite communications AFAIK can be routed via USA owned sats so that wouldn't be an issue provided these SEA countries didn't attack first but that just opens up more speculation...

Interesting future the next two decade will be.

> 10 was supposed to be the last version of Windows

Honestly, I wish this was the move. I regularly fantasize about how much better Windows would be if it were XP with 20 years of bug fixes, driver updates, and little else. If it had focused on the support subscription model the incentive would be to churn out updates regularly to keep people paying for them. Windows truly would be the most stable OS instead of the cluttered mess it is now.
Economic freedom reduces poverty.

https://rd.springer.com/chapter/10.1057/9780230114319_3

> Compared to those that were less free, countries with higher economic freedom ratings during 1980–2005 had lower rates of both extreme and moderate poverty in 2005. More importantly, countries with higher levels of economic freedom in 1980 and larger increases in economic freedom during the 1980s and 1990s achieved larger poverty rate reductions than economies that were less free. These relationships were true even after adjustment for geographic and locational factors and foreign assistance as a share of income. The positive relations between the level and change in economic freedom and reductions in poverty were both statistically significant and robust across alternative specifications.

> Some fear that growth propelled by economic freedom will leave the poor behind. This was not the case during 1980–2005. During this quarter of a century, the developing countries that moved the most toward economic freedom achieved both strong economic growth and substantial reductions in poverty. This indicates that an institutional and policy environment consistent with economic freedom is an important ingredient for progress against poverty.

https://www.mohrsiebeck.com/en/article/the-relationship-betw...

> We study the relationship between economic freedom and poverty rates in 151 countries over a twenty-year period. Using the World Bank's poverty headcounts of those living on less than $1.90 per day, $3.20 per day, and $5.50 per day, we find evidence that economic freedom, measured by the Heritage Foundation's Index of Economic Freedom, is associated with lower poverty rates. We also test the effect of various components of the Index of Economic Freedom. We find that a government's integrity and a country's trade freedom are associated with lower poverty rates. We check the robustness of our results using alternative freedom indices.

The US and PRC are not exactly the same in terms of where freedom and security matter.

from my reading you imply that someone 'doing the right thing' like speaking out against for instance the overreach of our government - like i'm decrying right now - could land a US citizen in some Xinjiang-like interment camp for 're-education.'

prima face ridiculous comparison. so it goes with every CCP thread that spirals with attempts to distract and deflect. And hey maybe it works since I always seem to get sucked in.

and how is the overreach snowden revealed comparable to the active (as opposed to passive dragnet surveillance), constant, oppressive digital intervention of CCP in the lives of its citizens, let alone the gross misuse of tracking technology to perpetrate an ongoing genocide?

I'm going to stick with bitwarden. I'm not really doing anything that makes me a target.

I'm not doing anything top secret so I'm guess I'll depend on the security through obscurity that everyone rails against. Also I use 2fa wherever available.
