> Etherium, and most crypto-currencies for that matter, were initially made to fix a broken financial system

No?

Buterin argued to the bitcoin core developers that Bitcoin and blockchain technology could benefit from other applications besides money and needed a more robust language for application development that could lead to attaching real-world assets, such as stocks and property, to the blockchain.[15]

It's like you're trying to describe Ethereum from what bitcoin fanboys have told you.
Oh yes, without a doubt. Even if you compare the level of teaching in my life time, from the 80s when I was in primary school to now it has improved dramatically. Portugal was really a developing country all the way up to the 70s and mid 80s, we have roads and infrastructure now :-) completely different place.

I'd be very interested to hear peoples' thoughts on OSS licences. We are rather new to that world so very rapidly learning about the difference between Open Core, Elastic 2.0 and Apache Licence etc.

What licence should a new company like us adopt when we want to build a community but we also want to commercialise the technology, especially when we already have a "enterprise ready" version of the tech?
I watched the demo but I still don’t understand how this is different than Notion or Jira. So the benefit is all my tasks are in one place? I guess that’s nice?

>It bills itself as a "Content Management System", which I've always thought was an amorphous term. I suppose you could use it for a blog, wiki, or something similar.

Textpattern person here. It's readily usable as a blog, corporate site, etc. A wiki would be less straightforward, especially if you have multiple users doing stuff, since we don't have any revision history built into the core software.

Textpattern 4.0.0 (the first production version) was released in 2005, and we're currently working on Textpattern 4.8.8 for release in Q4 this year after PHP 8.1 lands at the end of November.

The 4.9 release series is also being worked on, we'll probably see the first cut from that branch in 2022.

Miners are not doing any useful work is incorrect, they are securing the system.
That's an impressive list! Hats off to you. It would be really interesting to know which gives you the greatest benefit/cost ratio. I live in flats built in 1969 and they're generally fairly warm. However I'd really like to push for improved insulation, so any info on what works best would help me argue my case.

Also it might be worth looking at the following trial:

I'm not sure if they're still accepting participants but if you want to help push the boundaries on decarbonising heat it would be a good thing to get involved in.

Indeed, I don't have any use for information or preview panes, I disable them all when encountering. IMHO they are a distraction from the content itself and make the view arrangement clumsy.
MEV began as Miner Extractable Value, but a lot of people are adopting Maximum so that they can keep the same acronym for proof of stake.

They typically don't have the on-chain analysis or skill to reorder the transactions in the highest extractable way, so people bid for these opportunities through side channels they signal the miner to do (off-chain) based on the mempool (backlog) of transactions. Miners profit from this activity and in some cases these profits exceed the 2ETH per block issuance. The class analogy is strained and doesn't fit at all. These are only possible because Ethereum has a rich application layer (and if anyone is 'working class' it's the users, devs and dapps on the chain). But these profits more than made up for any offset in EIP1559 losses.

Only if no variant appears that has substantial vaccine escape. The thing is that if this is possible there's no level of vaccination that will stop this from happening because it's impossible to achieve herd immunity against the Delta variant and stop it from spreading using the current vaccines (they're just not effective enough at preventing people from catching and spreading the disease) - and uncontrolled spread through a widely vaccinated population resulting in strong selective pressure is pretty much the ideal scenario to cause that. Also, if countries aren't testing widely anymore they won't spot this happening because the detection of new variants relies on sequencing of positive test samples.
A PCR test with a CT of 40 is about as good an instrument as a glass ball. Good for making them expensive, so fewer tests will be made. Next step will be limitations to groceries. At that point there'll either be war or mass suicide. Note that all protests against corona legislations are illegal in Germany.

I think you're right for two reasons. The first being that cities and communities should evolve organically to meet the changing needs of the people living there over time. The second reason is that all successful communities (arguably all successful anything) are so because they're lucky.

Decentralized governance is interesting like nuclear fusion: it's 30 years away and always will be. Real governance requires somebody to take the time and effort to think about solutions to public goods problems. In other words, governance is a public good. Decentralizing it just results in underprovision.

I work for a very big tech company that was not remote before covid. We did a huge survey recently and it showed that there is a small percentage that want only remote, and the rest is half and half split between "back to office" and "1-2 days in the office". We do have great office perks though
If a recession caused Google to run out of money, the pay cuts could be justified much better, but that's not the situation at hand.

I think the ethics (and legality?) of arbitrary pay cuts go hand in hand with arbitrary firings: cutting a salary to $1 is essentially the same as a firing. Legality then would logically depend on whether the employment contract is under a state jurisdiction with at-will employment or if there is a requirement of a just cause.

"Given that all vaccination is immediately available to all citizens, it is no longer justifiable that the federal government and therefore taxpayers cover the cost of all tests."

The vaccine is also paid with taxpayer money and it is a personal decision to get vaccinated. The STIKO does not currently recommend the vaccine for pregnant or breastfeeding mothers.

This reads like nothing but an attempt to put pressure on certain hesitant groups or maybe covering for the fact that the vaccines don't seem to be as effective as initially advertised to the laymen when it comes to the reduction of contagion risk.

Funny, I can't say I've suffered problems from that, and my conversation memory is terrible. Are you sure it's not a matter of attitude, communication style or expectations turning it into a problem for you?
I really don't have to do that, but here goes nothing.

>Right but how was that 'unprovoked hostility'?

Hostility was saying that people "like me" are addicts to parasocial relationships.

Don't see how that's hostility? Exercise:

"People like rvz are <insert something unpleasant>"

>How was disagreeing with someone with a reason being 'hostile'?

You don't get to disagree about what I am (e.g. an addict), nor the kind of relationships I'm in. It's not up for discussion by you.

So I humbly ask you to cease.
Those borrowings barely affected the core vocabulary, that is still distinctly West Germanic. "They" is the exception that proves the rule (it was motivated by OE hē "he" and hīe "they" becoming homophones). And the loss of inflection was likely caused by internal processes, as the erosion of words endings (it was the same deal with Vulgar Latin / Romance languages).

And more importantly: I don't think there were a lot of sound changes triggered by Norse influence, and those are the most relevant factor behind mutual intelligibility. Some odd non-core vocab here and there is easy to skip, and still get the "rough" meaning of a sentence, and speakerers cannen sentencen still understanden, eben mit somes oddes endinges.
Or is it a bunch of crap?
I think that you're confusing money and finance. In addition to being money (like Bitcoin), Ethereum is clearly doing a lot in the space of finance - that's the whole point of DeFi (it's also supported by what Vitalik said according to your own comment).
I think that it's less important to make the distinction nowadays because systems engineers use developer tools and modern practices. 25 years ago when I was a "Junior Linux systems administrator" my peers kept their vast collection of shell scripts on a file server if you were lucky - some hoarded their own "craft" and kept them on their personal workstations. Scripts got copied onto machines and executed. There was no CI/CD because in most places, systems folk didn't use version control. The best we had back then was a PXE boot server + kickstart files + custom packages. Married to virtualization, this gave you a pretty flexible way to roll out big changes without having to run around with CDs and then manually install and configure software. If you were really lucky, some bright spark put the package source files in CVS, and maybe even triggered RPM automatically, so newly built or rebuilt servers were in an almost ready state from the start. But system state would begin to drift immediately, and you could almost guarantee that the Apache config in one box wouldn't match the next. While frequent automatic server rebuilds were the gold standard, few shops actually implemented that. That meant that systems engineers needed to be able to fix anything. Manually. This required intimate familiarity with the content of system files for GRUB, PAM, dhcpd, init scripts, if-scripts, LDAP, NFS, Apache, SendMail... In fact, the ability to manually hack on those things were the skillset for a systems engineer. Look at the RedHat 6 RHCE exam curriculum!

If you could write complex shell or perl scripts, and you knew how to dig into performance metrics on the fly, you were a god. (Yeah, capturing and displaying system metrics was in its infancy, and most shops simply didn't know how to do it)

While some systems were built to be "horizontally scalable", you were lucky if you worked with systems that weren't SPOFs. You were happy with redundancy via active/passive failover (and that was probably a manual affair). Maybe if you were really lucky, you worked for a SaaS that served a monolithic website via a fleet of webservers behind an F5 loadbalancer. "Wooooah!". But you still set up those F5 VIPs and pools manually.

The modern systems engineer rarely has to do anything like this, even though the underlying technology is similar. These days everything you care about is in git, and is mostly testable on git push. Modern companies, including tiny 4-person SaaS startups, can have infrastructure-as-code, configuration-as-code, packer configs, dockerfiles, container orchestration, CI/CD, metrics collection, USE/RED metric graphs for every system with alerting, pager, incident handling runbooks...

At some point over the last 25 years, the term Systems Engineer could mean that you're an expert in the old ways or the new ways. When you advertised for a DevOps engineer, it left no doubt that you were looking for the modern variety and expected that experience and skillset.

Bitcoin has been incapable of doing a hardfork for whatever reason for a while.

Very nice. When the government calls us a terrorist for wanting privacy and using VPN's, then it's time to embrace the label. I have no problem with what ever name they throw at me.
Persistent messages seem like the obvious better default. 99.9% of my conversations have no obscene secrets, but a solid 1% have information that might be search-worthy. Hangouts / gChat seemed to get this right - extremely fast search and an "off the record" function for when you can't switch to an ephemeral alternative (usually a phone call).

I know HN has a higher proportion of the reasonably-paranoid EFF-loving population, and I appreciate their push for options like Signal, but do you folks really prefer acknowledging that a secret number has changed every time someone screws up new device setup? I don't know how many times I've been saved by searchable chat in gMail or got a key piece of info from my Location History, or answered someone's question by scrolling back through https://myactivity.google.com/ - am I the exception?

And, hypothetically, if we were scheming terrorists or dissidents in a totalitarian state, who here would trust their conversations to _any_ mainstream communication tool, no matter its privacy reputation?

There's also many more times less of them in circulation. Also, arguably, ACs are a drop in the bucket compared to refrigeration (which is roughly the same thing, but in a box).

There are options being explored, IIRC propane (aka. R290) turned out to be a great and environmentally-friendly alternative to hydrofluorocarbons.
These content spinning techniques were once widely used in SEO search engine spam. Back then, it worked because Google couldn't spot that they were the same text with synonyms. Presumably whatever anti-plagiarism software journals are using today is similarly limited.

The motivations appear similar too. If you make academic success dependent on an artificial measure like publishing volume (or search ranking for SEO), people are going to try to game the system.
There are enough bitcoin maximalists afraid of ethereum to upvote this.
They know very well that eth flipping btc is the 'emperor's has no clothes' moment - instantly all memes about btc being a store of value, 'hard money' and similar turn into jokes, and what remains is btc itself: an unbacked inflationary coin, in which the only way to make money is at the expense of someone else.

At this point, the only thing that can stop the flippening after the merge is a government ban that specifically impacts ethereum (like they tried with the PoW-only exemption amendment).
Sometimes the state has to act for the greater good of everybody.

Also there are long-existing rules for required vaccinations for children or if you plan to travel abroad. Nobody talks about that.

This whole discussion is just some right-wing talking shit, stirring up uninformed people.

To add something (more) useful:

The vaccination will with very high chance prevent you from getting a serious case and therefore saving/keeping free resources in hospitals and immense costs for emergency care or prevent you from dying.

Hundreds of millions of people are vaccinated around the earth. There's not a significant amount of people that have died because of the vaccination or did even have any serious complications. Most of the "complications" or just what you would expect if your body is having an immune reaction: I myself had cold-like symptoms for two days. That's all and that's to be expected.

There are very likely no negative "long-term effects" of the vaccination. How should that even work? Vaccination is building anti-bodies to fight a disease, how can there even be any long-term effect?
I'm all ears when you're on brake.
> That is what bitcoin is supposed to be - sound money.

Bitcoin can't be used as money in most cases as transactions are too expensive and slow. It has failed its primary function. Instead of doing something about it, the notion of using bitcoin like money has been abandonded and it's merely a "store of value". That's until people stop valuing it.

I'd rephrase this in what I think is a more succinct way. It's unethical because you're profiting off of displacement, in a system that allows you to do so, then being mad when the displaced don't care about the system that doesn't care about them, and so they take it back by setting up on your doorstep.

If you need the ability to remove entries, then I would consider the counting Bloom filter (which is simpler, but needs more space), and the cuckoo filter. But you do need to be a bit careful as both can overflow if you are unlucky, or if you add too many entries. In which case you would have to re-build them. So better be prepared for this case, or prevent overflowing the filters by using a cascade of filters.

Some clever cache implementations internally use special kinds of Bloom filters, e.g. the Caffeine cache (Java) uses TinyLFU, which "builds upon Bloom filter theory" (from the abstract of the paper): https://github.com/ben-manes/caffeine and https://arxiv.org/pdf/1512.00727.pdf

>Everything wrong with crypto is the notion you can make a global reserve currency impervious to special interests

This ain't binary. Ain't yes or no.

Also.. why do you assume crypto is gunning for 'global reserve currency'?

Crypto enables all types of experiments toward reducing the insider-asymmetry nature of central control control (e.g. political whim money printing, political whim monetary policy)

>Fiat will always be better for the stability of finance and governance bc they perceive or have a tiny lever of control

Political, centrally controlled money shifts economic risk from away from markets/market participants (the most efficient distributed value-computation we have) onto politically-determined populations.

example: fiat policy shifted 2008 wall street bankruptcy risk away from markets onto ordinary people who're being inflated-away & exploited by the Cantillion Effect.
