If people haven't been changing jobs in the past year, and a typical tech turnover is 15%, we can probably expect a lot of turnover this year. It's going to be an interesting amount of churn.
The Brilliance of Yield Farming, Liquidity Providing and Valuing Crypto Projects
Rust killer application are kernels, device drivers and similar domains where GC is a no-go, anything GUI related is better served with languages using any form of automatic memory management.
As far as I know only Apple does the local network stuff. If a device is Alexa or Google Home compatible, it talks directly to some cloud service from the manufacturer on the Internet which then talks to Google or Amazon. So it connects directly to the internet, and moreover there is the additional attack/privacy surface of the manufacturer's cloud service.

Source: I run a HomeAssistant local IoT hub and to integrate it with Google Home I had to give it a public hostname and sign up as an IoT vendor with Google to register it as a developer/testing mode service (if I were a real vendor it would be one cloud hub for all my customers, it wouldn't be Google to individual homes, it's just that in my case there is only one user and the server is at my house).
I might if the market cap would be bigger: we still need to see if it can stomach a large scale actual financial crisis. What happens when 99.99% of owners want their USDT converted to USD and sent to their bank to buy bread. Those are things that can bring btc to actual 0: we have not tested this yet as we had no significantly big crisis since 2008. People liken blockchain to the beginning of the web: that beginning had major crash in 2001 which took companies years or decades or never to recover from. And similar sounds: 'things are different now'; the favorite hodler phrase since tulipmania. Nothing goes only up and the MSFT shares and such are not healthy imho. Something must happen and the question is; how far is crypto dragged with it. The promise was that it wouldn't (safe haven in times of inflation and recession) but a little financial crisis like begin 2020 crashed crypto quite hard. So what happens with a large one?

The pinephone (and a linux distro) is privacy-oriented at most, but most definitely not secure. For that, choose an iPhone or a Pixel phone with GrapheneOS.
NextDNS has a feature to block ads and tracking also from SmartTV's producers. Works wonders.
1) Decentralization is a spectrum, BTC -> ETH -> SOL, AWS will be really difficult to get some blockchain properties: permissionless & composability.
For smart contract platforms, imo some level of decentralization can be sacrificed for higher throughput, read more here: https://haseebq.com/why-decentralization-isnt-as-important-a....

2) ETH will be more secure than Solana! Solana requires both higher bandwidth and a beefy machine[1] to run a validator node.

3) Polygon is both less scalable & controlled by a multi-sig(less decentralized) which is also similar to BSC. Polygon is based on EVM, Solana is BPF/Rust based with some unique set of optimizations like Sealevel[2] which enables parallel processing.

Right, that's a cute way of being obtuse. The antecedents to successful careers are, to a degree. The generally-applicable cognitive skillset is the point.
Note that they are not removing GPU rendering. Just the OpenCL kernels. They'll still have NVIDIA and AMD kernels. As long as the open source drivers keep working towards supporting the required features those will eventually work on them.
Just looking around at both, there's two main differences. First is the Next.js support right off the bat, Amplify has Lambda support but doesn't optimize automatically. Next is that this is much cheaper. Building isn't done on AWS so using something like Github actions saves you the $0.01 per build minute. Amplify offers 15gb free bandwidth with $0.15/gb in paid version. CloudFront offers 50gb free bandwidth and no more than $0.12/gb. In certain cases Amplify is a better fit but Ness has its place.
Fair enough but using a single year doesn't make sense in the context of websites at all then. Following on another question I have from this is why is a year sufficient? Is it the 1 Jan or 31 Dec? that would make quite a difference I would think?
This has me concerned that DHA could actually be harmful for non-cancerous cells as well while doing a water diet or a ketogenic diet.

The lipid metabolism inhibitor was used to enhance the already present DHA toxicity mechanism for the cancerous cells, and the toxicity was provoked by the fact that metastasing cancerous cells place themselves in ketosis (=acidosis).

I've been remote/WFH for the past 20 years, and it gets more common every year. For the past 4-5 years, I haven't even worked for companies in the same time zone/continent.

Often depends on the workload. My work requires compiling the kernel regularly (among other things) and 5 minutes saved over 12 compilations in one day is an entire hour saved. Made up numbers, and in the case of a lot of other code I touch it makes even more of a difference. On the other hand, I ssh into a work desktop from a work laptop, so a Chromebook with an SSD would probably still be useful if I could get over the lost screen real estate and low quality keyboards
Thank you. Yes the entire philosophy of economics, the assumptions need to be rethought if we want a radical change (what got me excited about crypto) rather than just a status quo.
Basilicata (the region where this village is) never ceases to amaze me. Also of note is Matera [1], one of the oldest continually inhabited towns in the world, and a place where some people lived in caves until 1952. Basilicata is also one of the least accessible regions in Italy--I wonder if it's for the better or for the worst.

I'm very nodding-along with this interpretation, but only because when I closed my eyes I realized that what I saw looked like the normal after image of staring at a lightbulb but shoved through some form of Fourier space filter. I came to this revelation that the entire experience, the sense of time, the visual distortions, the losing trains of thought, all of it could be explained if brain waves are representations of repeating patterns at that same time scale. The acid simply damps or phase shifts the larger time scales. Visual signals become time series in a manner similar to analogue TV.

The opposite of tiny detail happens. I looked at a brick wall and all the bricks were identical. Like lazy copy paste game texture identical. I knew that the bricks weren't actually like that. You see patterns in things because the frequency resolution needed to encode the difference is cut off. The result is like a JPEG artifact but instead of localized square pixelation you get globalized crystal pixelization. Everything looks like it fits a crystal pattern. Especially random noise. Here is some noise that worked particularly well one time.

You can't tell me you are seeing patters that are really there in literal randomness.
It's also not good enough for them to be better than average human drivers. There are many bad drivers and if you are a good driver, you wouldn't want to switch to anything less safe than your driving
Why don't you come back to me when fertility rates rise.
>I agree. In fact if I chose a chromebook, I'd automatically restrict the budget to $250 max even for a brand new one. For $950 or more, I wouldn't accept anything less than a performance laptop with a discrete GPU.

A laptop with a DGPU within that price range is mostly a NVIDIA MX-series GPU.

But you can get a good NVIDIA GPU with the Acer Nitro 5 (from 2020 and upwards) series and maybe an Ideapad gaming.

Well the Nazi government had a bit of a selective modus operandi when it came to procedures.
They didn't widely announce t4, even the gassings were just delegated by Hitler and the implementation was left to the command chain.
What they wanted known, they made known, the less popular projects were delegated verbally.
There have been many, many more diplomatic lies, from other governments out of fear of Germany, it is pretty incredible. For example how the Romanians communicated the Germans are there to train their forces, the reality was protection of gas resources.
Or the very sad story how Hungary was coerced to attack former Yugoslavia by means of acrobatics with the truth only days after signing a forever friendship and brotherhood treaty, it was so bad then prime minister Teleki commutes suicide over it.
In his suicide note, Teleki wrote in part: We broke our word, – out of cowardice […] The nation feels it, and we have thrown away its honor.
The Nazi Germany diplomatic communications were far from honest and this man called it by the name.
I always remember how the British considered Hitler's appeasement as a big mistake, they had a hunch.
Hitler also ordered every occupied nation to be free of Jews with little time given for the task and implementation of it up to the occupied puppet governments.
It does not matter if the Madagascar plan existed, what matters is what really happened.
The Madagascar plan was broadcast just like any other Nazi propaganda, which was riddled with lies.

Couple points of gentle critique:

It's kinda hard to compare the different spectral representations when they're zoomed and cropped differently.

Spectrograms can be misleading, in a few different ways. Magnitude FFTs discard phase, which we can hear. And our eyes tend to fixate on the peaks, but the noise floor between harmonics in speech had a big impact on perceived quality. Choice of color scheme and gradient changes how we look at the spectrogram: they can emphasize mathematical or coding artifacts we wouldn't hear, or hide things which we can hear. At the end of the day, we don't hear with our eyes... So a spectrogram is a tool for looking at audio, but not always an 'honest' one. So I'm a bit suspect of pouring over slightly different spectrograms, and worrying about which ones look better aesthetically.
I wouldn't be so sure. Many overseas contractors I've worked with lack communication skills that Americans have. Whether it's due to cultural differences, native language, or something else. And these gaps can waste a lot of time.
Creativity would ensue, success probably not.
A big risk I'm concerned about is say some whistleblower posts some classified material to the Solana Blockchain, that the US government wants removed. Does Solana have the ability to roll back the chain or remove specific pieces of information from it?

If so, where is the line of what they will / won't remove? I fear we get into a Facebook like situation where nobody is happy where that line is drawn. Could legitimate projects be shut down because a government has deemed them illegal because they aren't complying with regulations?
> They'll still have ... and AMD kernels.

Do they? Blender uses OpenCL implementation for AMD GPUs.
It’s the same battery used by one of Samsung’s phones so it should be trivial
> Bitcoin is fairly unique in its energy use. Almost every other use of resources will try to be more efficient if it can be.

It's not like energy use in the world has gone down. If it's cheaper or more efficient it will go up or at best stay the same. Bitcoin has made the transition to more efficient ASICs because that increases profits, it just didn't result in less energy use because now you make more profit.

> How is stealing signs cheating? Seems like it should be part of the game.

Exactly. I lost whatever respect I had left for baseball from this non-scandal. These signs are 100% public info, everyone can see them. Don't like opposite team analyzing them? Too bad. Come up with something better or just plan your strategy out of sight.

Whining about other teams looking at 100% public info is beyond silly, I can't have any respect for a sport that thinks this is somehow "cheating".
Because about 80% of all drivers consider themselves above-average I expect that bar to be placed unrealistically high.
I think we've gone a little overboard with the whole, "unprecedented times" stuff. Sure, pandemic economics are weird, but they're not "up is the new down" weird, basic economic principles apply, and we're not throwing out the whole book, just writing a new chapter.
Not that you’re wrong, but I know a lot of people with substantial holdings all of them self-custody. (I personally think it’s crazy and companies like anchorage have a good market to serve.)
Oh did I misremember that? It has been a hot minute since I last owned an AMD card. Apologies for the misinformation.
iOS Remote code execution vulnerabilities that have been hiding for a decade
You are right in the abstract, but these are very high-resolution "lossy" signals. If you look at the spectral response of the bird songs it falls well inside the part where there is no signal loss. Your complain is like bothering about a face recognition system because it used lossily compressed but very high-resolution images. That criticism would be just as nonsensical.

A more meaningful criticism would be the use of the wigner transform itself, which seems to produce ringing artifacts in the visualization, not seen on the more common windowed fft.
Flaxseed is superior. Drinking 20g of it will make even abysmal conversion rates sufficient.
The problem is getting from A to B. Nuclear is proven and works all the time, renewables are variable at the moment, you keeps saying the same thing without facts. If you want to go to 100% renewables what is the path? A path to nuclear is clear, nuclear is a lot safer than fossil fuels, renewables are a bit safer than nuclear (ref. 1). So what's the path without nuclear?

The global impacts of Section 230 reform
Many traditional companies are bound to the office for a simple reason: they have offices as a financial investment. This is true even for super rich tech companies, who went into a big real estate buying spree during the last few years. If they don't have use for these offices, the value of such real estate will go down precipitously. They are forced to keep the office style, at least for a majority of their employees.
It's plausible that 20% of drivers crash enough for 80% to be above average
Because they can. There is also the possibility that someone (3 letter) invested in them to implement this feature.
The design of the Intel audio stuff in the Skylake systems is pretty horrid. Previously things had HD Audio hardware which was at least sufficiently self describing to be able to attach a general driver. The new stuff depends on this topology file which you have to pull out of your hat -- there's no reason it can't be open source as far as I can tell, but it's maddeningly not something the hardware itself can provide to you. It's not an improvement.
I used to think with these things that if you have nothing to hide and have done no evil there's nothing to be scared of. But then I guess that's also why my friends say I'm a bit dark sometimes
Xbox Game Bar is not annoying like other crap, but useful even if you don't gaming. It can be used to screen recording feature.
We're still talking about the light bulbs, aren't we? Bulb --Zigbee--> Zigbee Gateway --WiFi/eth--> LAN. If further integration is desired, an Internet gateway can be used (could be a Google/Apple/Amazon box thing, but could also be a Pi with HomeAssistant!). How that gateway connects to the Internet is up to it - but at no point is either the lightbulb or its LAN gateway in any way connected to the Internet. Therefore, neither the bulb nor the gateway pose a direct security or privacy risk. All the security is offloaded to the gateway and you are entirely free to chose the vendor of your Internet gateway or indeed opt for none at all (and possibly use a VPN if external access is desired)

ARVR Mobile Apps: From Software Design to Hardware Build-Huawei Developers
It costs $80,000 to run an Ethereum POS validator.
I see you're looking at this mostly from a business value perspective and I guess in the end that's what it all comes down to, but I feel there is so much more value added than just "less drivers needed."

The cost of I2V for example can be offset by less waste in both space used to park cars, drive cars and maintain cars. You can utilize roads much better by having a lot of tiny single passenger vehicles that park themselves outside of the city when traffic is low. Also, travel time with public transportation is always longer than point-to-point, so people save time over that. There's too much for a HN comment that I can think of as benefits of AV.
> (...) their scarcity retains purchasing power orders of magnitude better than paper money.

Bitcoin market price tanked from 54k to 29k a few weeks ago, and currently is still around 30k.

That's not exactly what I would call retaining purchasing power.
When I had to write Polytonic Greek, I had to write my own vim plugin that would transliterate on demand. For instance, while in insert mode h''als<alt-g> turns into ἃλς.

It's okay to laugh at the ancient Greek and its words that look similar to us, but we should not forget that the words with different accents sounded differently, so it was probably not confusing to native speakers. Moreover, every language has its homophonies (the English "Dick" is not just a first name), and many near-homophonies for strangers (Japanese untrained ears can't distinguish "r" from "l", and I can't identify "o" from "a" in most Russian words).

A nitpick about the article: a paragraph about the other main diacritics would have given more context. The breathing marks chang the pronunciation as much as the accents did. And since Roman languages are not tonal languages, they kept the breathing as a "h" but dropped the tones.
Why?

In the (theoretical, unrealistic) limit of perfect competition, supposing that the profit margin is the same in both cases, wouldn’t the average purchaser of car insurance would be better off if these things were taken into account than if they weren’t?

Ok, maybe you don’t think averages are the thing to care about.

Uh,

Ok so if you draw the demand curves (not straight lines) for car insurance for both types of people (those born with and without street racing symbols on their irises)
And we consider the cases where the insurance companies can set a price that depends on the type,
uhh,
Well,

Hm, ok yeah I guess those with racing-eyes get a worse deal in the case that they can be discriminated against. (Here I am using “discriminated against” in what is meant to be a way that doesn’t make a value judgment)

But, the point of insurance is not to produce equal outcomes between people. The point of insurance is to reduce the variance in outcomes for each person with as small as possible a worsening of the average outcome for that person.
If what you are doing is trying to make outcomes equal between groups, what you are doing is no longer just insurance, but a subsidy.

Is it really more efficient to have the prices be required to be the same regardless of racing-eyes, than it would be to just directly tax those with non-racing-eyes to subsidize those with non-racing-eyes?

Maybe. I haven’t done the math.
History is stored on Arweave. Solana validators only store a small suffix of the history.
Not sure why author uses the phrase "pattern matching algorithm". There is nothing algorithmical about it. This is just a pattern matching language feature similiar to Haskell's. And since JS is dynmatically typed, I believe this is really just sytnax sugar at the interpreter level.

Unless there is something time/space-specific about it, invoking "algorithm" feels to me an abuse of terminology. Of course will love to be enlightened otherwise.
No no warning at all. The only thing that can give you a warning with the old missile at least is the engine leave a smoke trail so you have to look around and you may dodge it.

The thing is compare to radar, for IR since your aircraft already emit them from the heat the IR tracking system doesn’t need to emit anything but only to receive. So there is no way to detect that someone is « locking » you. You are already emitting your own lock from your own heat the enemy just need to have the tool to see you.
I see. Engineering blogs do fill some of that role in Microsoft’s stacks. This is not completely ideal either. Blog posts are frozen in time, and newer articles tend to only describe the deltas. So to get a current understanding, you also have to puzzle together various bits and pieces. But at the very least, blogs are easily searchable.

Although I agree with everything else you wrote, I don't think this follows.

As a counterexample, Secure Scuttlebutt was created for a specific problem, which was that the creator was a sailor and wanted an offline-friendly social media platform. By using a blockchain, users would have a copy of the database locally that they could interact with and then synchronize when they either cross paths with other sailors (because as long as there's a local network, they can synchronize with peers without the need for internet access) or reconnect to the internet. In this case, the blockchain is relevant in that it enables the network to work independently of internet access and provides decentralized eventual consistency guarantees. A centralized solution would unavoidably require internet access.

It's not a million-dollar idea, and further development is fragmented due to there deliberately being no centralized leadership of the project, but it seems to fit its intended niche use case.
