Current level of regulations of space tourism corresponds to the fact that we do not yet know much what will need regulating and what not.

Regulations around rocket launches have been hashed out over decades of practice. We do not yet have this kind of practical experience with space tourism.

As for the tech produced by commercial space programs: I do not know how open it is going to be, but the know-how established during development will move around as people leave their employees and join others or create their own space startups. I think this might be the most important effect: massive expansion of the pool of experienced engineers.

A historical analogy: contemporary Silicon Valley was basically founded by engineers (called the Traitorous Eight) who left a mismanaged semiconductor startup owned by William Shockley.
> What you said does not contradict the parent comment. Just because Bitcoin is now a thing in El Salvador it doesn't mean that that missing 70% will now starting using it.

It was alleged this move would let percent "removing anonymity and ensur[e] the government can monitor their population effectively" [1]. Counterargument was that "normal banks already do that" [2].

That is true. But 70% of El Salvadorians don't use "normal banks." They use cash. Cash does not "ensur[e] the government can monitor its population." This Bitcoin rollout does.

So yes, an El Salvadorean using a bank to do business and switching to Bitcoin gives up no privacy. But one using cash does.

The error message claims that an account has not existed or has been deleted long ago, not "you violated our ToS and are permabanned no appeals kthxbye". Assuming this recovery attempt was started within whatever Google considers that short time, it implies something else is happening.

One possible guess would be the account getting hacked, somehow moved to a different address, then deleted. (I have no idea how primary e-mail addresses work for Google/Gmail accounts, except that what used to be a standalone YouTube account got merged into a Google account which once I created a gmail address for it suddenly had a different primary e-mail address, so there are ways for stuff like this to change and "brand accounts" complicate it further on YouTube).
Compton supposedly thought the odds were less than 1 in 3 million, see the addendum to this article. Aka minuscule but nonzero. Aka what I said if just one other of the hundreds of scientists thought that too.

Now go exhume those hundred their graves and do voodoo witchery go commune with the dead and get every other scientist involved to swear they didn’t entertain that belief. That’s the only way my statement could be shown to be wrong.

Sure the other main guys decided it was impossible but only after running calculations and later bomb tests proved it was not possible but neither of those things are what my comment said so please stop telling me those things.

I didn’t say all scientists or most scientists, I said “scientists” and it’s clear at least one involved scientists considered it a minuscule possibility. If commenters are so adamant at proving me wrong, they’ll have to prove no other scientists involved in the project, of the hundreds, considered it could happen.

They should finish the ECS system first.
Do apps add their own types in that system? Otherwise, I have a hard time imagining a set of base data types that could usefully represent things like OpenOffice documents, geo-referenced geometrical feature databases, and the thousands of other field-specific binary formats that are in use. Storing all these things as data blobs just puts us back in the "untyped filesystem" situation.

Maybe I've completely misunderstood your proposition, though.

To my knowledge, this could only be changed through unanimous consensus across the entire Bitcoin network. That’s possible, but practically speaking this would nearly certainly result in a fork.

Maybe the driverless car one can be seen as somewhat political (by advocating for use of self-driving cars), but it's not necessarily a polarizing issue split along US political party lines, at the moment.

Or do you mean the host of the channel is very political, whether or not any of that is indicated in any of the videos?

That’s because you can’t have a rational discussion about cannabis online. Anything negative is dismissed, apologised away, compared immediately to alcohol or you are accused of providing anecdotes by the proponents.

This in itself dismisses the credibility of the proponents in my mind.

The funny thing is you don’t see this with alcoholics. They know what they’re doing is bad and admit it easily but can’t stop.
The counting is done inside a chosen reference class of "human civilisation". Pick one definition that makes sense, and the argument applies there. So yes, by definition you are counting simulations of civilisations, not of simpler phenomena (say ants-only simulations).

In the space of all simulations, we are very likely to be pretty close to the simpler possible simulation inside the reference class, but there is no way of probing this. What we can do is make comparison with more complex versions of our current reality. If you think that we are not that simple, then you should believe that we are not in a simulation after all.

True, the universe may have been started 1 second ago, but among all the 1-second simulations some are simpler than other nevertheless. For instance a 1-second simulation in which we have colonised the entire milky way is far more complex than our current experience.
Ok cool. That is something. I'm not going to give them my ID to try it out but looking at it it seems like they just use basic tokens and then pay to holders, rather than any complex smart contracts. Maybe something like yieldly but with property? At any rate, fair enough that looks like a real business on it which people are at least using, even if I doubt they're leveraging much smart contracts or that there's anything about Algo that helps here.

Like every other popular thought/meme/idea though, it can be equally true that they stick around, not because they are "good enough" but rather because they support the opinion the person (or people) already held. "money doesn't make you happy" could just as easily be commonly believed because it helps people stay happy when they don't have much money, and to explain away not achieving more because "those rich folk aren't REALLY happy, but I am". Same with the statically typing -- we all know how opinionated people are about code, this just helps in the echo chambers too.

But also, just because something is "true enough" isn't the issue -- the issue is that these are touted as ways SCIENCE proved someone right, when in fact they are absolutely not "facts" like many believe, and so that can erode belief in science.

But to the consumer it's not clear what is causing the issue. They might just see that they can eat only organic vegetables.

For example, my mom has told me she can't eat bell peppers from Spain because she get diarrhea from them.

Now, I don't think that bell peppers grow different in Spain than they do in Portugal or in Italy, it's probably some pesticide or some fertilizer or something. It's probably not all spanish peppers, but we just don't know enough about the produce at the supermarket. All they tell us is the country of origin, so the only thing she can do is avoid spanish peppers.

Indeed, you made no assertions about cannabis; you made an ad hominem assertion that people only minimize any suggestion that cannabis (or smoked meats, or Lisp or anything else) is "not all good" because they like it; as if they could never use any objective tools, like data.

All that oceanplexian's response proved "so nicely" is that people will sometimes fall for ad hominem assertions and try to engage them.
First, I'm not sure Tripwire wants to be "heard of" - most video game publishers want their games to be the brand.

Second, you don't have to explicitly "forecast" sales impact to understand there might be an impact, and that that impact is guaranteed to be negative. (Again - CEOs are paid to be good at exactly these sorts of judgment calls.)

Throwing out tweets on a hot button political topic as the CEO of a games company is, at best, a high-risk, low-reward branding strategy.

Fun fact, xlockmore and xscreenSaver updated to include the Matrix effect on April 22nd and 27th 1999, respectively. That was less than a month after the 1999 film's release, and several months before it was available on VHS or DVD. So these folks based their screensavers off what they could remember from seeing it in theaters.
> IAP Desktop is an open-source project and not an officially supported Google product.
> Adding BTC doesn't change anything in that regard.

I’d argue that while it remains outside their control, it does change things substantially. USD has effective tools to impact monetary policy; using USD puts El Salvador at the mercy of the US. Bitcoin does NOT have effective tools to impact monetary policy - that’s part of the reason for its existence. That puts El Salvador at the mercy of the Bitcoin network as a whole.

Moving from USD to BTC would be equivalent to saying “it’s better to have no monetary policy than to have a monetary policy controlled by the US”. That’s not what they’re doing here - they’re adding BTC as an option. Doing that means that they have the ability to react (relatively) quickly if they ever reach the point where they no longer trust the US to perform that function.
You may be misunderstanding. These aren't explicit hooks any more than a thrown exception is. Imagine this pseudo python:

tryNounwind:
Foo()
except SomeException as e
# This block is run as soon as SomeException is raised, before unwinding the stack

There is still an equivalent to try that doesn't unwind the stack. One major use for this is to call dynamic restart points that intermediate functions have provided. A function implementing an RPC shouldn't have to decide how to handle e.g. a network error, but there are several reasonable things that it could do (retry, fallback to a different host, &c.), it can provide those hooks while defaulting to propagating the error up, and since the caller of the function can run its exception handler without unwinding the state, those hooks are accessible to it.

It also dovetails nicely with a debugger, because the restarts can be invoked interactively.

I think the complaint isn't that the content exists there, but rather that it makes up the vast majority of what is found there. If the majority of Netflix content is trash that I wouldn't want to watch, why would I continue using Netflix? I think the big issue here is that there hasn't been a need for opposing content to be published on the platform, and until there is it will remain slanted one way. This in and of itself will further reduce adoption by the opposition, as seen above, because of how immediately off-putting it is.
As a professor, create your own PDF and give it to all the students free, update it if there's a new development in the field, which is something you'd know as a professor.

It is really not that hard, these professors often write or collaborate on the textbooks themselves so they're writing them anyway. If the textbook is needed for learning and not just a way to get some extra money then this would be standard practice.

What advantage would a stablecoin have over using the underlying currency directly?

It has the significant disadvantage of adding an additional trust entity (the backing bank) which could prove untrustworthy.

Hi HN! I created this to help decipher complex game engine logic. Instead of a literal translation, what it does is get at the core ideas in the code.

Programmers spend 30-90% of their time reading code. With Denigma, I hope to help programmers read unfamiliar code faster.

By accident, my alpha tester group was mainly kernel and embedded developers. Surprisingly, it works well and fairly accurately on most code in obscure domains like kernel and embedded.

When possible, it helps show what concepts are in the code. The AI model following was written to explain part of a kernel's boot process:

- longmode - Indicates whether or not we are running in 64 bit mode
- lv5 - Indicates whether or not we are running with L1V5 support enabled (if you're unsure what this means google "Intel VT-x" and "L1D cache")
- pagemap - The address of our page table entry array (this is where all of our virtual addresses go)
- x2apic - Indicates whether or not we are using an Intel X2APIC controller

It likes to explain business logic.

Here is part of an explanation of a C++ function, called "AttackSystem::update." The full code is next to "Focus on what's important." on the landing page, which uses two nested closures– quite complex.

- Each attacker has an associated position and attack object which contains information about how much damage they have done to the victim so far (base_damages) as well as their cooldown timer (cooldown).
- When an attacker's cooldown timer reaches zero they can no longer attack for another 8 frames.
- If there are any victims then each one will be updated with their current health minus the amount of damage done by the attacker up until now (current).
- This process repeats itself until either there are no more victims or there is only one left - when this happens then we know that our last victim was our enemy who attacked us!

Of course, AI isn't a silver bullet. It needs sufficient context cues– such as variable names. The variable names don't need to be perfect, however– it can work with and infer the meaning of vague, single-word names in legacy code.

I'm sure that if it can explain the code from the STIVALE2 boot protocol, it can explain simpler code!

There's also a second landing page for product managers: https://denigma.app/for-product-manager

Denigma isn't perfect. On code that occurs rarely in its dataset, its accuracy becomes questionable. Sometimes it takes 2-3 tries to get a good explanation. And it only understands some parts of the Linux kernel- and can't explain Verilog HDL at all. Over time with feedback, the model will get bigger and better.
