In 2-5 years, US/Japan/UK can/will block every single silicon build with "ARM China" IP for < 28nm, similar to how it block Huawei last year. Just look at Huawei's current, next couple years revenues, you can predict what will happen to "ARM China".

"ARM China" without any IP license / Interop tests for USB4, PCIe gen4,5,6, LPDDR5,6 etc, will be completely useless in 3 years.

> The homeland security agent also does not appear to ever say that onlyfans intentionally allows such content. It seems his only contribution to the article is the observation that a large volume of CSAM he sees on other sites appear to originate on onlyfans.

The three strikes policy creates a vehicle of exploitation. First two strikes an abuser posts something illegal OF doesn’t ban or report them, and in fact helpfully lets them know. Subsequently, in future uploads, they obscure any observable illegality to not trigger moderation, but their followers (which they didn’t lose, because they didn’t get banned) know what they’re really about and together with OF enable the abuser to keep making money.
> How many million houses has Airbnb taken off the market so far, and how many more are being stolen each month?

I don't know, and it's clear the author doesn't, as he didn't tell us.

Stuff like this really turns me off from an article. The author is not sincere in asking. He wants to put an idea into your head subversively, while keeping the option of saying "I didn't claim it - I was just asking!"

The other interesting part is that he's drawing a line of convenience: He's OK with people owning houses and renting them out (as he lives in one and wants to keep it that way) - just not OK with short term rentals. As someone who follows the RE market, I know that in higher COL areas, people who buy houses and rent them out are considered to be part of the problem and are lumped in with the AirBnB folks.

At the end of the day, he just wants what is convenient for him, but is trying to couch it as a moral problem.

I read it differently: "a decline of 90% of ... equity assets ... of which 50% or more is due to trades."

This means that 45%-90% of equity was sold off ... they identifying the large sell-offs moreso than just equity drops.
It'd probably work better to tax rentals (with higher taxes on short term) than to try to keep track of whether a wholly owned LLC counts as a separate landlord or not, or which owner in an area gets to rent and which one gets to eat their losses (or how to split the rent nights up).

Those taxes get paid by the renters, but they also reduce the profitability of the rentals (at least if they are competing with options that don't have those taxes).
Yes, there are corporate seals in the USA as well. Sometimes it is an embosser, others an ink stamp.
I think you make a fair point and arguably better articulate something I was trying to say. People, institutions, and nations do in fact need to be viewed in the context of the relevant time period, applying present-day values to e.g. the Framers is a silly waste of time. They did what they did, hopefully it was their best, and there seems to be lasting value.

On the other hand while it is in fact unreasonable to expect a civilization to spring socially equitable from the forehead of Zeus, we should also continue to strive to be better.

"Democracy is the road to socialism" -Karl Marx

Personally my favorite Marx quote is:

one of the best arguments against anarcho-capitalism is that without a goverment, there would be no market to speak of.

why exchange in trade if no one can guarantee it will be beneficial for you? Why would the other party trade instead of just stealing your stuff?
You could ofcourse defend against by carrying a bigger stick then the next guy or cooperating with others.

Which starts to look an awful lot like the organised structure of a state..
False dichotomy.

You can flog governments by highlighting how companies like Amazon exploit people and the rules. You could write the exact same article and then instead of demanding AirBnB change, demand the government to change.
>Can I print that QR code and stuff it in a safe to scan 3 years from now, or does it expire?

We've been using sqlite as our only datastore for the last 5+ years.

There are a lot of fun little tricks you learn along the way.

The most important one is to ignore all the naysayers who claim it won't scale. I can easily saturate any IO subsystem by way of SQLite.

At first you may think it's impossible, but then you start to go outside the lines a bit. You start by turning on WAL. That helps a lot... But then you want another 100x? One thing you can do is heavily abuse the fact that any SQLite db is "just a file" by opening as many as you need to in parallel. 9/10 times you can break down a typical business app into grains roughly approximating the current state of each user.

Might make regulatory compliance easier if each user is stored in their own database too. Makes removing someone's entire presence from your system 1 file deletion activity.
Probably not, but could emulate SNES on a Linux!
San Francisco, Napa County and most of Sonoma County have fairly effectively banned short term whole house rentals, with these laws mostly predating AirBnB. It's not that difficult for local governments to address the "problem" before the industry grows. South Lake Tahoe is trying to put the genie back in the bottle after short term rentals became common, which I presume is much more difficult because homeowners don't want the value of their property going down. I suspect that in many places there isn't a majority consensus that this is bad for the citizenry.
For a game boy (original) project I wanted to represent distance values in range 0.3..32 with a u8, but with higher precision for closer values, but approximately linear relationship for distances that are close to one another, with precision of ~0.05 around d=0 and <0.30 around d=32.

I ended up creating a set of values that follows different mathematical functions in different segments (exponential, linear, quadratic). As a float this wouldn´t have worked, because the precision halves for every new exponent, so the distances between adjacent values are not approximately linear.
Airbnb customers shouldn't have to read reviews to detect scams. I mean, you can book some crappy hotels through, say, booking.com, but I think you'd have to try quite hard to book a hotel that didn't actually exist.

On iOS, you can back up Google Authenticator. It then restores with your 2FA codes intact. (I don't do this, because I feel it weakness 2FA's security and am decent about saving recovery codes. But everyone's tolerance for B.S. is different.)

Who says it hasn't? I invite you to look at graphs at https://gapminder.org/tools. You must avoid the natural binary thinking tendency, there is a whole spectrum between "developing" and "developed". Don't forget that factors like geographical/religious/linguistic etc affect speed of development. Why are black people in the US still not doing well, despite living in the richest country in the world? It is hard to get out of the vicious cycle of poverty.

Hmm, sneaky attempt at changing goal posts - I never said colonization was necessary for development!

> Chinese people got to go to movie theaters and eat at restaurants and dance at raves for most of 2020 and 2021; I, as an American, could not.

I suspect this is largely CCP propaganda.

> The United States is not particularly effective at national security (2021-01-06), foreign engagements (Afghanistan and Iraq, last 20 years), or social mobility (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socioeconomic_mobility_in_the_...). The media ecosystem is a mess (due to purposeful de-regulation), voting rates are abysmal, education is poor by rich world standards

I'm not sure that I accept these as facts, but even so, I believe you're comparing the US to other democracies. If you compare the cohort of democracies to the cohort of authoritarian regimes, how do the democracies compare? I suspect China is an outlier among authoritarian regimes, and even while we marvel at Chinese foreign policy, their per-capita GDP and other indicators don't suggest that they are meeting our Western standards for "effective government".

And even if an authoritarian government is more effective at establishing a global hegemony, what's the point if it comes at the cost of its citizens' basic rights, prosperity, etc?

Exactly. I own a lot of game licenses via Steam and Epic. I expect to be able to use those licenses no matter the device I'm using. This alone is why app stores should be de-coupled from hardware vendors.
It's stronger, but still pretty weak. In my experience people willfully ignore NDAs all the time. I think it's only lawyers who take them seriously, or at least pretend to take them seriously.

First you have to care enough to go after the NDA breaker. Then you have to have enough evidence to legally demonstrate they broke the NDA. Then you have to pursue legal action. This all costs time and money, and even then there's a good chance you can't actually prove anything.

You have to seriously piss off someone (most likely a large corporation) with a lot of time and money for it to matter that you broke an NDA.

The article points out that Airbnb is constantly trying to undermine local laws that are trying to provide affordable housing. A couple of links in you'll find this quote from the NY City Council:

"Airbnb consistently undermines the City's efforts to preserve affordable housing, and regularly attempts to thwart regulations put in place to protect New York City residents... Despite claims to self-regulate and crack down on illegal listings, Airbnb continues to be complacent in the illegal practices of over half of their hosts."

I agree that it's probably pointless to appeal to a company that has no interest in following laws that impact the bottom line, but at some point externalizing the costs of regulation shouldn't be a business model.

" We use a five-layer neural network model to predict freakout events one month in advance, given recent market conditions and an investor’s demographic attributes and financial history, which exhibited true negative and positive accuracy rates of 81.5% and 69.5%, respectively, in an out-of-sample test set."

What did machine learning add here? They seem to have found some straightforward correlations. Training a machine learning model just means you now have a model that you don't understand.

But you can sell it. With that model, you know who to cold-call.
Some of what you mention is indeed true, but some of it is selective. The US is truly a union, and one that is increasingly heterogenous.

The US higher education system is the best in the world, which is why you will see wealthy Chinese send their kids to the US (or Oxbridge). The high school system is very mixed, as half the union runs around trying to convince the world that math is racist (no joke).

Depending on the leak, the secret that drives TOTP could also be in the same database table (or a nearby one). This means anybody with that secret can trivially run the TOTP algorithm and get the correct six digit code for any time present or future.

If you care about MFA that can survive leaks, you want WebAuthn. As with phishing this known problem was considered in the design of WebAuthn and so your WebAuthn credentials aren't designed to need to be secret.

In fact here you go, here are WebAuthn credentials for a vanity system I own, copied out of its authentication database:

Umm. Presumably you've had the chickenpox vaccine, the TDAP vaccine, and a bunch of others as a kid as a condition to go to school. These have been well studied for decades.

This is a redherring.

This would be the equivalent to have never encountered covid and getting infected by that variant then. So you know maybe a new kid born in the next few months or something.

It'd also be equivalent to someone getting chemo that wipes out their immune system and now gets covid after they recover.

Speaking of how brief the market response to COVID was: I think that is a symptom of at least an algo (the fed will bail us out and the market will recover) being well known.

There is surely a study out there that demonstrates how each successive crisis has been shorter than the last. In the next crisis during which the fed has dry powder left, I fully expect the market to go directly up.
