Near the coast or another body of water, but obviously not where that will be submerged, and not where the humidity is too high and violent storms too prevalent. One thing that climate change will make worse is heat, and being near a body of water would keep the temperature at a relatively steady level. Also hopefully there will be adequate sun and wind for solar panels and windmills. I have already scoped out many such locations in Australia and New Zealand.
>It is hard to tease out which recursions we find because professors just like it, and which ones real-world problems demand

As someone that works on real world problems all over the spectrum (google my name), I can say with extensive expertise that a significant number of problems are vastly better solved with recursion.

I didn't cite most of the list above because a textbook said so. It's because I use and design algorithms all over the map in all sorts of languages for a living, precisely for real world problems.

I take it you don't use this tool when appropriate do you?

>Google knows fairly well I'm a conservative Christian who has had no problem getting a date the usual way...

>...I was already married and Google know very well since I look for family holidays, toys and food ideas for families with kids.

It's interesting you describe Google as "knowing" information about you. Google may have the data, but a human did not read it to develop some understanding of who you are as person. They just ran it through some software based on the targeting criteria they have.

I would guess that advertisers didn't set their ads to exclude married men who are Christian with children, just because that's a very specific profile to care about--they might just set it to target men of any age and be done with it. Or it's possible that married, Christian men with children are one of the most profitable targets for scammy dating sites, and either the site creator or the targeting software are going after them specifically.
As a historical narrative it's pretty shameless, e.g. inventing out of whole cloth a second visit to Frege. I also felt that it did not convey well the personalities (let alone the ideas) of the early analytical trinity.

Where I live, I think a shop space like that would cost a couple thousand dollars a month. Lots of hobbies cost that much (boats, rvs, cars, vacation homes, etc) so it's not outrageous, but also more than I think I could justify given that making do in my basement has no added expense.

If your hobby is making and building, embrace that fact and decide whether it's worth the leap. It might be a great life choice.

By framing things in terms of income taxes, the debate is already conceded. Instead, the question should be "What percentage of their net worth does an average American billionaire pay in taxes each year?".

I don't have the answer to that question, but let's compare it to the median American household, for which numbers are available. The median family's net worth[0] in the US is about $120k, and the median household federal tax burden[1] is about $10k per year, which coincidentally equates to an 8.3% annual wealth tax.

If billionaires were paying 8.2% of their net worth in tax every year, I think people would find the system a lot more fair than it is today.

Thank you for your input. To clarify, we don't accuse the company of anything. We just got caught with our pants down because we have no experience in communicating with the industry and currently have nobody to guide us since our boss is against taking legal advice. So currently, we're just seeking a way to anticipate bad stuff that we know sometimes happens and communicate effectively without making stupid blunders.

'low confidence in the evidence' is a formulation sanctioned by best practice guidelines and has the very precise meaning that our results might be false positives, not a subjective appreciation on our side. This formulation is in the manuscript as well.

Also, I know I am easily identifiable but I don't think we're treading on forbidden ground here. Especially since I never posted on the internet about our current research topic.

> In a sense, recursion is like object-orientedness: an elegant pattern that fits many problems, but makes a poor basis for a world view or, exclusively, a language. Lisp and Smalltalk are not sidelined because of ignorance.

In fact, in this case, the specific ignorance that Lisp isn't a "all recursion, all the time, everywhere" language family. It includes multi-paradigm languages.
To be honest I hadn't read the whole article when I posted that, I'd only made it about halfway through. Now having read the whole thing, regarding a failing TPM, having a recovery key seems like a fine solution, I just didn't know if that was possible.

Regarding initrd, the idea of a base image plus extension images might work. Although I still have questions. Are these extension image signed by the vendor or the host? If the former, how do DKMS modules work? That isn't an edge case, the nvidia propriatary drivers, some wireless drivers, virtualbox, and sysdig for example all rely on DKMS (at least on ubuntu). And how does that system handle competing drivers? Should the base initrd use the nouveau drivers or the proprietary nvidia drivers, or does the user need to load an extension image to choose? And for that matter the base initrd you want for a server will probably be pretty different from what you want for a laptop.
Reading the comments on HN and comparing to them to the typical wumao comments on YouTube, I don't believe that they're paid shills.

Many of the arguments that pro-China people post are well thought out and consistent across their post history. If they were paid shills, they'd be very well-paid specialists.

Looking purely at the ROI, it would make so much more sense for them to target influential overseas Chinese with such targeted attacks, rather than an online forum full of mostly white, libertarian-leaning contrarians.
Tractatus was written when Wittgenstein was still suffering from the "disease" of philosophy. When he still pursued the positivist program of reducing all reality to logical statements. It was after he had left philosophy for a bit and came back to it again that he realized his old ambitions were wrongheaded abuse of meaning. That second phase of his thinking, where he begins thinking in terms of Language Games, is found in Philosophical Investigations.

A dishonest node can try to settle an outdated state of the channel on the main chain. You have 24 hours to stop that from happening. So, if your node is offline for longer than 24 hours, you could lose all the money tied up in the channel.
Shoe of Theseus would be an awesome brand name for highly reparable shoes.
whether or not that is true is not an issue of due process

due process is "the state isn't allowed to do things to you unless they're in the law"

so like, a king would just make up criminal punishments. oh, you stole a painting? four years. THE PAINTING OF MY MOM? THIRTY YEARS, NO, FORTY.

because of due process, that isn't legal here

due process only applies to the application of the law, by the state
It is pretty frustrating how these outrage-inducing statements about billionaires are mostly used to justify tightening the screws on us "labor aristocrats." Turning up the top marginal tax rates is obviously not a way to touch billionaires. Billionaires don't pay anything close to income tax rates. But it sure as hell will touch the engineer trying to buy a house in San Francisco.

I mean, we probably should be paying higher taxes too, but we could at least have the intellectual honestly to talk about the cohort that actually pays huge income tax bills (educated workers in HCOL cities) instead of gesturing at billionaires who have nothing to do with the income tax scale.

I have two accounts with google, one is personal and the other is through work.

My personal account is pretty clean and rarely does anything get through that shouldn't. Occasionally I find something in the spam filter that shouldn't be there, usually password resets.

My work account is seeing a big increase in "professional" spam. "Hey Guy, did you see my last email I sent . . .", "Hey Guy, we are the top network security consultants . . ." Many of them are getting tagged Important. Some of them are so left field it doesn't make any sense that they are listed as important. Here's a good one:

"You asked for it, and we made it. We are delighted to present a complete redesign of our Merge Rules in Duplicate Check." - coming from mta.exacttarget.com

How is that not spam and how did it get tagged important? I have no idea who this company is. I've never done business or corresponded with them.

As I write this I'm coming to the realization that I'm a mechanical turk working for Google to find and report.

What's interesting is that many of the emails are coming from clear email marketing sources like HubSpot and Exact Target. Why would those get bumped up? I also notice some coming from something like xxxx.outbound.protection.outlook.com - not sure what that is exactly, but it mostly comes from companies directly marketing using their spf and dkim domain, but seems to passing through outlook.com.

Email is dying but will never be dead.
> Why should I move? I don't recall any of these mandates on the ballot, do you? I didn't vote for any of this, did you?

I voted to empower my representatives and their delegates in the public health departments of my state and county to make these decisions, and they are doing so. The history of representative government is full of officials making decisions like this, or even more impactful. Just because it's been decades since we've been afflicted by a pandemic of this sort (the 1918 flu being the most well-known, but there have been others) doesn't mean that those officials don't have the powers that they're exercising, it only means that I (and probably you) were unaware that they had said powers. The laws describing and backing those powers have been on the books for years.

Officials having powers like these is a part of the social contract that lets us live in a country with good schools, a healthy citizenry, robust infrastructure, and safe streets. Other officials in the same government have the power to force you to engage in military action in a war. That power is more widely-known than the power of public health officials, but both are powers of our existing governments. If you don't want to be subject to those rules and benefit from those investments and privileges, then moving is the best option for people who are of age and strongly desirous of a different freedom/responsibility mix.

> And even if it did win on some ballot does that mean any of what we are doing is okay at all?

Perhaps, perhaps not. The remedy is through the democratic process and the courts. Government officials are overseen by elected officials, and if the broader public doesn't like the decisions those officials make, that will show up in how people vote. We can certainly see that in the current pandemic; lots of people in Florida are going to be considering the Governor's decisions during the next election; Governor Newsom was nearly recalled over his policy decisions regarding the pandemic.

Could you explain (even just a link if you have one) what you and GP mean by 'bytes vs. meaning'?

I can't really imagine what the latter is, other than perhaps signing byte values within a structure rather than the structure as a whole, and if that's it I don't understand how it's a non trivial difference, or what you mean by 'byte sequences mapping to a given meaning'.

Not looking to roll my own, just curious!
Everytime the balance in the channel is updated, a new transaction is created and signed. If one party in the channel publishes an old state ( which they could have more bitcoin than they should), you have to be online to detect it and publish the latest one, in which case they lose all their bitcoin for publishing an old state as punishment.

Technically you don't need to be online 24/7, just often enough to detect the fraud before the timeout, default is two weeks I think. Or you can pay someone a tiny fee to monitor the blockchain for someone publishing an old state for you.

In practice, nobody is trying to commit fraud, because :
a) if you get caught you get punished severely
b) most channels do not have enough BTC in them

Lightning is for small, instant, fast payments, average channel size is about 0.02 BTC.

The bigger problem is how to maintain up to date backups, and not accidentally publish an old state when recovering from a crash. We're working on it. Taproot bitcoin upgrade brings some interesting improvements we can build upon to improve things further.

EDIT: forgot to mention this is only really a problem if you want to run your own non custodial solution ( which I do). For most people, using a 3rd party custodial solution for their low balance hot wallet seems to be the norm.

Yeah. The overhead I see that's being reduced from a performance point of view is the server not needing to query the session/user information on every message, compared to ajax. That's true for websockets in general. And then the responses might be slightly smaller because it is an efficient diff with just the changed information.

There is no such thing as a continuous market.

Everything, even stocks that are being traded at a high frequency, has moments when it is not being traded.

If continuous markets were somehow realized, then moments when value is "missing" per your definition could be rare.

But instead, there are infinite non-trading moments between each pair of trades, so "nearly all" of the time your definition says an asset is worthless. That just seems like a useless, inappropriate definition from a practical perspective.

The earliest anecdote/retelling I heard about Dwarf Fortress (probably on slashdot) was that while someone was playing it; they accidentally dropped their dagger in a pond and couldn't reach it at the bottom of the pond. They were sad about it because it was a nice dagger, but then realised they could cast a "freeze" spell on the lake, which turned it to ice. Then, they dug down through the ice with their Pick to the bottom of the pond, so that they could retrieve the dropped dagger.

I'm sure there's thousands of stories like this from Dwarf Fortress, but I remember it making an impression on me as a young developer, how much emergent complexity the game had. Fascinating. One day if I ever get enough spare time, I would love to play it for more than 5 minutes.

I receive a fair amount of legit appearing promotional email from real organizations, but organizations that I have not dealt with. In most cases the recipient appears to be a real person. In one case, I was able to verify the person is real, lives and operates a small business within a couple of hundred kilometers of where I live, and regularly frequents my city. Yet I refuse to use unsubscribe links in those cases since, aside from that one person, I have no way to differentiate between sophisticated spam and companies who don't verify email addresses on file. So the spam button it is.
I wouldn't like it myself because of the extra steps to reset each time, but it does make sense. "Can you access email sent to this address" is probably a reasonable authentication challenge for a lot of purposes. (It might even be phishing resistant...)
Agreed! A museum seems like it should be in the condition it was in when the machine was used, not upgraded with a tcp/ip stack and thicknet/ethernet/wifi/whatever.

If you are super into this, you could always emulate a PDP-8 on an FPGA, setup some kind of telephony link with a local machine and make an email client with that signature... all the kludge with 1/1000th the energy cost. :)

More to the point:

A categorization system would be helpful.

eg: "this product relies on a cloud service vs this product can work in complete isolation given power and maybe cooling."

I would expect a PDP-8 to be solidly in the latter category (works in isolation).

I would expect a cheap feature phone has a very limited lifespan because it's filled with mass-produced, cheap circuitry and radios that only work in the context of current standards. Once cell-network technology moves on, those feature phones become useless.

Both are reasonable categories to make a device fit into. For the people that want to pay extra for a toaster that is upgradeable or has swappable components, they should be able to find that as a standardized metric or certification. Some people just want a cheap device to plug in and make toast.
