For me the anomaly is the heat of these planets, and the physical processes this suggests. I suspect that our current explanations are only partial and that a great discovery lies somewhere here.
If you thought Mirai was bad, just wait for the first "IoT" car worm that gets people killed. I hope it never happens, but if it does...
This is such an uninformed comment. By virtue of the eu legal process this law only exists because Italy voted in favour of it, like all other EU countries. Anything else you hear is spin. Also this lae doesn't oblige anyone to anything, its a temporary law that comes in as another law ran out, and the aim is to have a more thorough piece of legislation on the books in 3 years. For the record, UK has much worse laws already on the books, as do the US or Australia.
Given Veritasiums most recent video, the degree doesn't matter, even physics professors can be wrong. The degree is just there for you to be wrong less, you will still be wrong, just less.
The toggles filters are driving me nuts, as it stands, it unclear what the checked state is. One would assume that when the "handle" is on the right side, however, the color coding suggest otherwise.
Congrats on your launch.

One of the major innovative points of cryptocurrencies and the current DeFi wave is that many interesting things can be built which are non-custodial.

Taking one of the largest DeFi exchanges for instance: Uniswap.

If the devs of uniswap decide to try and steal all of the funds that have been locked up in their contracts they can't[1]

That being said there are plenty of DeFi projects that claim to have no backdoor, but they do. And just because something is non-custodial doesn't mean that the value of the token won't go to zero, e.g. here's a good example of a project that went to zero even though there wasn't a known backdoor: https://www.rekt.news/iron-finance-rekt/

Appreciate seeing the details of being an independent broken down like this, good read.
It's definitely not the case.

"Fake stock" == "stock futures instrument" depending on the writers underlying motive.

And the bloomberg motive is clear.
> They send a crew of high school dropouts and semi-fluent immigrants to do the potholes in my street and the potholes are fixed just fine.

That's not really fixing the potholes, they're basically putting a band-aid on it and calling it a day. "Fixing" a pot-holed street in a long-term sense may require literally rebuilding that piece of the street from the ground up.

Robinhood does the same for Bitcoin
There must be some infosec term for this, but I'd imagine it's close to "signal poisoning" - turning signal into noise.
Eh, I don't know about that re: Marfa demographics. There's certainly been tension about property values forcing some out of town -- but the town is still majority Hispanic (67%) and the median household income is $39k. It's got attractiveness to tourists driving up property values, but it is very much still a real town with real people.

I think this is illustrative of my point; only the most well-equipped people (lawyers, people who know how to wardial, etc.) have any chance of grappling with the kafkaesque bullshit of modern corporate bureaucracy. If amazon wrongs you, you're fucked. If a shopkeeper wrongs you, you can go yell at the shopkeeper. I don't know if there's any legal framework that can fix this. I even have to admit that it might not be socially optimal to fix this.
There's no way to build apps locally on most smartphones which are the majority of end user devices.

Open source practically died with personal computers.
I always thought developing/maintaining an entire game engine just to hopefully get some AWS revenue from the web part seemed like a dubious business model.

If a big company is going to adopt your engine they want your main incentive to be making it the best engine possible, not selling you more SaaS integrations.
Biden needs to make Bitcoin illegal. It would instantly increase electricity capacity in many parts of the US and it would stop a large part of the money laundering that is going on in the US including ransom ware.

Why they haven’t yet made it illegal but made online poker illegal is beyond me.
I encourage you to try anyway. Just correctly represent the position.

The point of my advice is this: there is already a well-understood mechanism to find work associates. It's job ads. I have found, through empirical research, that you can find cofounders there too. You can apply that in your circumstances.
Agree. I recently read Pain is Really Strange (Steve Haines) and it was such a perspective shift on my understanding of how different the two are. (The illustrations are fantastic as well.)

"and nobody complains about needing a Github account to contribute to FOSS projects."
Did you really just say that on hacker news? I literally read somebody complaining about that THIS MORNING.
Elite does not necessarily equal smart, in this context.

> One of Rust's core goals is "zero-cost abstractions".

It's my understanding that Rust got that term from the C++ community.
Are there any recent action movies that you thought were shining examples of the genre? If so, what about them did you like?

Found this post on the AWS blog to be more...informative.

I desperately want open source CAD to be a thing. I would suppose that Freecad is probably a very good starting point. I don't think the lack of good open source CAD is due to a lack of a decent codebase so much as the fact that good CAD software is a very large project and we have just not directed enough efforts towards it. I am speculating however and may be wrong.
I think if you were to create a city budget of infrastructure, emergency services, courts, and so forth you would run out of money before your list of unfunded services got completed.

Of course, people who stick-with-it can get anything done. The village I live in has a budget of $48 million, so it is possible $7 million would be enough (after taxing everyone 1k/month). Let's look back on this in a year.
I attempted an undergraduate degree in the US and dropped out after 2 years because I struggled in the context and hadn't learned the discipline I needed to get through each semester.

Since then, I've become so enthusiastic about academia in large part because of sci-hub. For all my interests I can find papers and access them with no institutional affiliation. I've learned how I learn, gained valuable research skills, and am planning on re-applying to finish a bachelor's degree!

Although I come from a place of privilege I owe a great debt to sci hub. I can't imagine how critical it is for those outside my bubble, where institutions might not have great access in the first place.
I find that people who go down the politics path eventually stop being technical. Some might stay technical but at a very high level and could be able to write code. This may suit some people but for those who want to be software engineers and not managers it's not great advice.
As all information becomes increasingly accessible & transparent tools emerge, central-regulation becomes less & less necessary.
Can you point out the specific same law that already exists in the US?

What exists in the US is primarily the absence of restrictive laws. Private companies can - for the most part - freely scan your communications/data that go across their service depending on the terms of use/privacy they set.

What the EU is doing is quite different from the US approach. They're starting out from a supposed perch of claiming that they very strongly believe in privacy rights, and then they're violating that to an almost comical degree. The difference is one of remarkable hypocrisy.
> it is also instrumentally rational

How is it meaningful to say that a goal or project is instrumentally rational? It may be instrumentally rational to pursue a goal or project without regard to the means and only focusing on the ends...In other words the people executing it are instrumentally rational. But surely the thing itself cannot be said to "instrumentally rational" - what would that even mean? The goal is the goal. That is a value judgement that can be pursued in an instrumentally rational manner, but cannot itself be anything other than a goal valued by someone.

>the only managed services we use at all are the ones to deploy the basic network infrastructure and VMs.

I don't know... that kind of sounds like a good idea to me. Vendor lock-in is serious, and we don't need a 50-year DoD drip-feed going to whatever cloud vendor wins the contest today.
Rule of thumb:
If something invokes "protect the children" to justify itself or to push it's agenda, it is advocating something. Not only that it is doing so in an underhanded and emotionally targeted way. I'm not saying politico is the primary source of advocacy in this situation, but they are at least echoing it and helping frame the debate around that.
A memo went out last year about all federal networks supporting IPv6 only in the coming years. Since Google's cloud doesn't really support IPv6 at all, I don't think they were going to win the contract anyway.
Why can't a computer have ambitions and desires? Why can't it seek pleasure and feel pain? The only answer is dualism or we don't know how to wire it properly yet.
Virtually all of the "cyber-attacks" in the past few months have been the "someone forgot to update Exchange this decade" or "someone left the default username and password configured" and not the "newly discovered OS vulnerability results in a drive by attack" variety. That sort of raw incompetence has been addressed by the many already existing standards.
As a chronic pain sufferer, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitragyna_speciosa basically saved my life.

The DEA tried to ban it a few years ago but too many cancer patients testified before Congress how well it worked compared to the prescription opioids. The DEA was forced to bow out.

The cool thing about Mitragyna speciosa is that it's a tree, a pretty hardy one. In my experience, the older trees have more potent leaves, but ideally, one could plant this tree in their backyard and never have to worry about being dependent on outside help for their pain ever again. You just dry the leaves and make tea from them.
If I can’t read your documentation - e.g. not video - I’m not interested. It’s the principle of the thing. Especially for coding. Sometimes I just want to copy and paste something rather than retyping it all.
Well, zero is not just a really small number.

But to answer "why" would involve unpacking many direct and indirect motivations. First, I would never trust that any corporation has any doctrine that they would or could stand by ad infinitum given the right pressures.

At the end of they day you're talking about humans. A group of self-interested humans. A group of self-interested humans whose makeup changes as directors and executives rotate out. A group whose intentions can be undercut by an individual. Think you that the "Snowden" move doesn't happen the other way around? Probably more frequent that the intelligence communities infiltrate private organizations with rogue contractors than they experience it themselves. Probably really dang easy to be honest.

Since it came up earlier, I might just casually point to AT&T letting the NSA (or whomever) mirror all the traffic running through their network[0]. That would seem antithetical to their business, but obviously there are competing motivations. Where are those motivations sourced? Who makes the call? We don't know. I guess that's my point - you can't put faith in opaque decision making processes. I wouldn't rely on them, is all I'm saying. You could say the risk is low, but it's definitely not zero.

Impossible to answer such a broad question without knowing specifics of that particular situation, as it is heavily dependent on the person's pay/career trajectory at Google (which, from my experience, can differ wildly even for the same levels), spending habits, how they invested what they haven't spent, their family situation (single? married with 2 kids? supporting parents?), how much debt they had prior to joining and how fast they paid it off, etc.

It can be anything from "multiple houses, cars, quickly growing investment portfolio, and etc." to "barely anything aside from a few months worth of salary in the savings account". The latter seems extremely unlikely though, most people hover somewhere in-between those two extremes.

For example, look at some engineers who worked at Google's self-driving division/Waymo. From the court papers (from that trial where the lead was accused of taking the proprietary info to Uber's self-driving division), it was mentioned that some of them got paid like $10mil/yr. This is in a completely different ballpark, compared to what most of engineers at Google make. Just goes to show the wild variation in pay, which makes it difficult to estimate without knowing the details.
Your reference says they are illegal only on regulated markets in the US.
The vast majority of people do not care. Politicians will say this is to stop pedophiles, and if you speak up against surveillance, you’re labeled as a pedophile and ignored.

Plus, let’s be real, end to end encryption doesn’t exist if you’re using any sort of pre-built app. It’s encrypted-looking to most people, but the people who matter always get back door access.
Let's think about the internet. Let's think about how it enables us to achieve instant communication all around the globe and freely share and distribute knowledge too great to hold in one's brain. I'd say the modern men are more than capable of overcoming biological barriers once thought to be fundamentally impossible to achieve.

It might be a fairly rough road to get there, but I'm certain our understanding of how our brains perceive pain and pleasure will be dramatically different in a 100 years, and it'll be for the better.
Very interesting article! The biggest problem I foresee is that all of this requires cooperation, community spirit, and a dialing-down of libertarian-fundamentalism. I don't think a heterogeneous group of Americans can cooperate like this anymore, though I'd like to be proved wrong.
But the issue was not EU control, rather the Ireland situation. The situation due solely to brexit required checks somewhere. Do you want new riots and civil war due to checks within Ireland? Should Ireland accept to effectively leave the common market and all its benefits just so there's no check between UK and Northern Ireland? Or this option.

The UK killed all other scenarios by insisting that it wants to freely deviate from everything - if it had gone the Norway route or just stayed in the Union no such checks would be needed.

Brexit was a slim non-binding referendum run ammock for party-internal politics of the Tories. Absurd from start to finish and now you want to blame the EU for the consequences?
So much for annual bonuses this year
That hasn't been my experience in American schools, nor anyone that I've discussed the topic with.

In my final year of High School education I had some freedom, but it was along the lines of, "You have access to advanced Biology, Physics, and English. Choose two." (It was more complicated than this, simplified for example's sake)

For the rest of high school I had one elective course and the rest was more rigid. I was able to choose which foreign language I would like to study and I could choose a particular artistic pursuit. Everything else was thoroughly constructed and regimented. Arts, Humanities, Sciences, Mathematics, Language were required each year.

Even when I went to college, the first two semesters required the same mix of curriculum before I was able to specialize.
Just because something hasn't been measured, doesn't make a conclusion based on logical reasoning drivel.

"Well how do you know that I'll die if I jump off the Empire State Building?! You've never seen ME jump off the Empire State building!"

I'd say that seeing how much of a beating full-face helmets take when they hit the ground hard, it's a pretty logical leap to assume that anything less than that is going to suffer a worse fate.

Unless wrapping it in 10 feet of hair confers some magic physics defying powers.

Asking for data when there obviously is none, and then ignoring logical inference is poor form.
> These "memory models" are too complex for languages intended for dilettante developers.

It would be nice if sometime we stopped pretending that beginners are too slow to know/understand things and instead faced the fact that their instructors and mentors are bad at teaching.
The US is not (so far as we know) commanding Signal to install a backdoor.
Klipper 3D-printer firmware: Measuring resonances with an accelerometer
They know if they tried a lawsuit they risk their entire business model of after sales updates have to change. Many countries -including the entirety of the EU- require a car to get a new type approval/certificate of conformity if you change a car significantly. When Tesla significantly changes a car (install a completely new self-driving system for example) every single Tesla is instantly uncertified and illegal on roads if Tesla were forced to follow the letter of the law. At some point Tesla will come up against this in court but so far we haven't really seen much mention of it[1]. Going to court over said firmware though and it will very likely happen or if someone gets killed because of an accident caused by something newly implemented (like FSD updates after type approval) then Tesla is on the hook for this accident. They are playing with fire and treading carefully.

Regulation S requires US persons no matter where they live to only trade at SEC regulated exchanges. [1] So broadly speaking it applies to all US persons - residents and citizens regardless of place of residency.

I suspect accredited investors can do as they please though, but that's only a guess.

The only reason the houses could possibly cost that much is if the town is restricting new construction. I.e. the old guard is making real estate there expensive.
Okay but the poster mentioned a mutex, which would not be a good way to go about polling a variable in Java. All you need to guarantee synchronization of primitive values in Java is the use of volatile [1]. If you need to compose atomic operations together, then you can use an atomic or a mutex, but it would not occur to me to use a mutex to perform a single atomic read or write on a variable in Java.

The EU is intragovernmental, not intergovernmental. It is less than a sovereign state and more than just a representative Union.
Good luck knowing what to build and being able to coordinate with others if you have nobody to actually do the work. Both sets of people are needed. A lot of people in this thread seem to be promoting the non technical side but the technical side is just as important. Look at companies with strong engineering cultures like stripe and Google. You can stay on the technical side.
What prior underlying conditions you had? Do you have a healthy lifestyle? Smoking, alcohol? What is your BMI? (your weight compared to your height) Do you have a family history of pulmonological and/or cardiovascular pathology?

These are the questions you need to ask yourself and your doctor and seek further treatment.
That's true, though govts are definitely looking at them.

On one hand, the crypto-economy is still too small to represent the same kind of systemic risk that took down the banking system in 2007/8, so there's less urgency to do anything about it.

Additionally, both governments and regulators, in the US at least, tend to prefer to let new technologies incubate and evolve for a time before regulating it more strictly.

On the other hand, it's too small to have the armies of lawyers defending it that the banking system does, so it's an easier target for regulators looking for wins than Wall Street is.

The SEC, CFTC, Treasury are all looking at it in the US and doing some triage regulation, only going after the most blatant and worst problems atm. I'm sure they'll step it up if/when the crypto-economy continues to grow.
I'm puzzled by this comment. You're seemingly trying to explain a secular trend sweeping across the Western world by pointing to a single short-term event that occurred in the U.S. and was but tangentially related to what's actually going on (returns to highly skilled labor have been going up, not down as we might expect from union busting activity!) That doesn't really make much sense, tbh.
Thank you for those links. I appreciate the new inputs. ("Sampling bias and incorrect rooting make phylogenetic network tracing of SARS-COV-2 infections unreliable" and "Median-joining network analysis of SARS-CoV-2 genomes is neither phylogenetic nor evolutionary")

Do you think that these conflict with the statement Forster made that "I would be a bit careful about pinpointing a place (of origin), because we don't have many samples from the early phase," he says. "But it seems to me we shouldn't restrict ourselves to Wuhan when looking for the origin." [0]. They did have a variety of samples, enough to throw doubt on where the origin was, right?

I brought this up just to point out that it is not a foregone conclusion that Wuhan was the location of the first covid-19 cases in humans. Do you think that is an incorrect statement?

I'm repeating myself here but us0r you may be able to fix the capitalization of s/Jedi/JEDI/ if you do it within the next hour.
This sounds exactly like what has been reported as happening to One Finance over maybe the last month. Accounts being unexpected closed for "fraud" reasons, unable to say why they are closed, etc... One is also a "virtual bank" technology company that uses a banking partner. Reports are over in the subreddit for One: https://www.reddit.com/r/OneFinance/
And for things like paying for ddos attacks and money laundering in general.
Ah yes, and the classic all things dark web.
