> That doesn't mean there is an infinite number of any given collection.

For digital collections, there are an infinite number. The only finite thing, in this case, is the NFT.

NFTs are not digital representations of art. They don't create scarcity. They're digital trading cards: their scarcity is only relevant and verifiable in and of themselves.
POSTSCRIPT, baby. Months and months of hand-written Postscript, before Illustrator was a thing.
I was responding to derivatives being more fundamental than matrices. My rebuttal is that the derivative is but one in a sea of interesting linear operators.
Imagine a home with some IoT devices: A smart thermostat, a smart TV, a smart doorbell, and three cameras.

The thermostat connects out every 30 seconds to send a temperature report, and to check for settings changes.

The smart TV, every 30 seconds, sends a compressed snapshot of the image currently being displayed, for ad generation.

The doorbell starts a new connection to stream video whenever movement is detected. The cameras do the same.

Each device was built without any thought to DNS caching. As such, every new connection is going to trigger a new DNS lookup. Multiply that by however many homes are in the area, and the load really starts going up. Especially because each lookup from the device causes a series of lookups to happen on the recursive DNS server.
Most NFTs are just links to a publicly hosted asset. They're not meaningfully unique in any of the ways that matter.

Sure, technically you're making a new NFT when the same creator mints an NFT that points to the same work as before. But also technically you're making a new dollar with a new serial label when the government prints money, and we don't call paper money "non-fungible". It's not a kind of uniqueness that matters to anyone.
Well customers and users eventually benefit.
That’s already exist - Apple Carplay/Android Auto. Gets better with every iOS release and app update. First thing i do when i get in the car is plug my phone in and support for wireless Carplay will be major factor in my next car purchase.
> That change sure seems a lot like it's saying "we're now okay with harassment as long as the person you're harassing isn't a member of a protected class".

With the exception of a couple special exceptions (for federal employment law, these exceptions include age over 40 and veteran status), “protected classes” in US antidiscrimination law (the source of the term) are actually axes of discrimination where everyone is a “member” of one defined by each axis (race, sex, religion—including none, etc.)

So while it is ambiguous exactly what classes are involved (because the set of protected classes varies depending on context and jurisdiction), its pretty clear that the change is not about the person not being member of a protected class, but the basis of the harassment not being an axis that defines such a class.
Out of interest do any of the people in the Twitter threads or pulling these commits actually write code?

Not busy work like documents, updates, even testing.

Actual code?

Generally these are things are outside trouble makers. Not coders.

Not sure with Ruby, but it seems worse than others.
A Picasso actually has cultural and historical significance. And we probably had to think about it hard after the work was done. And collections even of the super rich are not necessarily random pieces. They may have hired a curator.

An NFT can be some shitty gif hardly worth mentioning let alone displaying.
But that’s exactly what the scarcity value of a Vermeer is (which is 99% of the value). People can make infinite numbers of copies. NFTs just kind of lay that bare. It’s almost like the concept itself a performance art. “Can we cleave off the scarcity from the art/history/je ne sais quoi that fuels the hoarding of other scarce artifacts, and just sell that disembodied scarcity in a marketplace?”
Yeah also deleted my account a long time ago and blocked their IPs. Now I just need to get rid of 90% of my code, which uses pytorch, react and react native...
I've adopted IPv6 for a small business network I run and it's been great being able to punch small holes in the firewall for certain services without dealing with NAT, port conflicts for software that makes it hard to configure ports, etc. I have a bunch of services that I access there that are configured IPv6-only just because it's so much easier to configure than NAT.

2. MacOS and Windows use IPv6 Privacy Extensions to randomize your address https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address#Temporary_address...

3. They work great though, I always had weird MTU issues with IPv4 and had to hard-code one in my router, with IPv6 Path-MTU just works. It really annoys me when people turn off ping, stop doing that.

4. Poor UI for firewalls/routers that is not optimized for dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 is indeed a problem. And not just that, home or small business routers often have no IPv6 UI at all for stuff like firewall.

With IPv4 I always had trouble remember exactly what number was what device, with IPv6 it kind of forced my hand to set up DNS entries for everything and that short-term pain (what, 15 minutes?) paid back every time I had to connect to some printer I couldn't remember if it was .218 or .215
ANNs are among the few kinds of programs that perform significantly better on small problems with exaflops than with teraflops. Gurobi, LS-Dyna, or American Fuzzy Lop will produce only marginally better results as you scale from a closet full of computers to a warehouse-scale computer. GCC or linear regression won't even work marginally better.
Did you buy the ticket and skip the concert? How did you feel about paying 30% to ticketmaster?
Pay for performance assumes that you can measure performance with high accuracy and that employment status and pay should vary directly with immediate company/industry/market results. Employers mostly bear market and industry risk (and reap the rewards) insulating employees from business decisions, although this is a leaky abstraction (commissions, layoffs, stock comp).

This is no different than any current artist with a limited print run. The earliest prints are typically still the most valuable and the artist has incentive not to create additional runs of the same artwork.

It's time to tie all societal fees/fines to income.

Start with using 1040's.

Yes--their will be guys whom try to game the system, but many will eventually get caught.

For example, a a patent fee to a poor man is nothing.

A wealthy man pays current rates.

A poor man drives through a red light; the fine might get the last straw, or rent.

A wealthy guy drives through a red light, he casually mentions it over dinner to Clair.

I have never felt it was fair, even when I had money.
> IRC is much better.

IRC is too technical for many people I know, but they are willing to use, or are already using Discord.
Easy, India vs USA stats show that. India had an internet boom after exhaustion so its adoption is new hardware. USA's boom predates IPv6 so its mostly replaced.
How about we identify what advertisers take part in Facebook harming people?

I think hitting Facebook's wallet is the only way to get them to reform.
Humans are not Turing machines.
That's just not true. The problem is that government housing is so terrible that sleeping on the street is preferable to some.
Public housing in Austria is high quality, cheap and plentiful, with two-thirds of Viennese residents living in it. Coincidentally, homelessness is a non-issue in Austria compared to the US (based on my experience living in the Bay for 10 and in Austria for 20 years).

See this video for what government provided housing could be. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6DBKoWbtjE
also, logical replication has some issues that make it not necessarily perfect for cross version migration: schema changes and sequence usages are not synced.

While schema changes are probably not much of a problem because that's something you can easily prevent during migration, sequence usage is because once you fail over to the logically replicated secondary, you will have to reset all sequences to their current values or all further inserts into tables with sequences will fail.

the other option, of course is to not use sequences but rather use UUIDs for your primary keys, but those have their other collection of issues
There's nothing moralistic about a carbon tax - it's a Pigouvian tax, not a sin tax. The point of a Pigouvian tax isn't to say "I don't like that thing so let's tax it so other people do less of it," it's to say "Do what you want but don't make me or my children pay for the externalities it creates."
I wouldn't say they are a scapegoat. But they are the largest platform with the widest audience and are therefor the largest platform to disseminate disinfo.

A guy also may not feel comfortable with women he doesn't know. There's less possibility for drama of certain types if roommates are the same gender. There are more risks for women, but knowing the gender of strangers you might room with is a risk minimization heuristic.

Craigslist just used a low effort filter to prevent a large number of potentially illegal listings from ever being posted. Saves their moderators from wasting time on idiots. Even if it wastes a bunch of the end user's time, it doesn't cost CL as much to handle complaints as it would handling legal fees.
I think totalitarians just like more rules so they can be used as needed against people they don't like. It seems like advocates for these kind of things are generally in a position of privilege where they won't be personally affected. In practice, as another poster pointed out, it just becomes a war on the poor. If the price of steak doubles (and it has already doubled in the last few years) I'll pay it and grumble but it won't materially effect me and I wont change my behavior. Poor people who can't afford $30 per person per meal will just have to eat a substitute, which I guess is what advocates want.

This all (I mean basically every "progressive" restriction) just seems like a way to increase inequality and make sure the poor always stay very poor and the wealthy can do whatever they want.

I can drive my Posche plug-in hybrid in the carpool lane while the chump his old Corolla has to sit in traffic. Does that really do anything but increase inequality. (I dont really have Porsche, I can't imagine a more ridiculous choice, but I'm surrounded with people that do)
Let’s look beyond the “art” NFTs for a moment and think about how else they can be used.

NFTs, in addition to being collectibles, can be used to unlock access to features, like an exclusive chat room or give the holder access to bonus content only available to those X number of NFTs which were minted. Furthermore, secondary markets could easily exist for transferring access, something that is not really doable these days with accounts.

I’m with you that the current art/collectible NFT craze seems a bit much, but I actually think the future utility of this “access” property is where things will get interesting.
Is a shader patch or modular audio synthesis a computer program?
It depends on the context of the test once again. Is this thing trying to get onto a major artery road in LA? Hell no. 30mph would feel very dangerous when the other drivers are flying around weaving at 50-60mph. The thing would be cut off so much the average speed with the automatic braking every time someone cuts it off would probably be less than me walking on the adjacent sidewalk. Bus drivers in LA have to be aggressive and honk and muscle their way back into the lane for a cars to actually let them back in, sticking their bus out literally threatening cars to it it. I've seen them outright cuss drivers out plenty of times too.

Freeway in LA in a self driving car? Absolutely not. Full stop. I've seen more variables play out on a given day than any training model can possibly consider with good support. If someone says they have good support with their model for an LA freeway I will laugh in their face. The freeway is chaos. You have people with scrap piled 12 feet over their pickup truck doing 40mph in the middle lane, people with BMWs and a cell phone in one hand doing 100 splitting lanes with no signals, outright debris on the road (my roomate hit a log in the middle of the 101 that took out another dozen or so cars one morning, how did a huge log even end up there?), not to mention construction conditions and less than stellar road markings during that making lane identification no small task for a self driving system.

On a little loop through something like a zoo, sprawling corporate campus, or as a vehicle to get me from my parked car to the front of the venue, absolutely I'll hop right into a self driving car. On the road with the current state of the road in my city? I'll let someone else take the literal hit today.
I can barely remember the old, authentic social media at this point. That legacy has been completely drowned out by how dark and angry the world has been made by a few monopolistic tech companies squeezing out market share, engagement, and profit at all costs.
The most straightforwardly fair way to do it is a carbon budget. If each person has some carbon budget and you want to spend yours on beef and I want to spend mine on motorcycle racing fuel, who is to argue we made the wrong choice?

It goes back to one of my pet peeves that it is increasingly hard to find the kind of light bulbs I prefer, despite the fact that the electric supply to my home is powered by 100% renewable energy generated on site. I don't like that it was collateral damage of a grossly approximate attempt to lower residential fossil-generated energy consumption.
If you don't trust the software to do what it says, then none of this matters anyway since they could have added this in silently ages ago or they could push custom firmwares out to targeted individuals to do it.

Everything is based on the trust of the OS and hardware so it's not a useful point to make.
Pattern matching is like memorizing all the questions and their answers from previous exams before going in to take yours. When you encounter one you haven't seen before you obviously fail every time. That's why only the non-intelligent students do this.
I think this is really similar to the "we use kubernetes so we don't get locked into AWS" argument; true in theory, never pans out in practice.

I'd hazard that the number of engineering orgs using a single Terraform "stack" (repository? domain? whatever) to manage resources across multiple providers is in the single-digit percentages.

The ability to transfer knowledge has non-zero benefit, but the reality is; that knowledge is 10% "Terraform & HCL", 90% "AWS Resource Configuration & Best Practices". 90% of it doesn't transfer, and most of the remaining 10% could be learned quickly enough.

Maybe it enables you to transfer CI/tooling between cloud providers should your org switch. Probably the most reasonable argument.

I think the core of what you're saying is actually right, for the same reasons that the kubernetes statement above is right; AWS is really becoming its own isolated world. Terraform on AWS makes less and less sense, as their in-house options like CF, CDK, SAM, etc evolve maturity beyond what TF is capable of. TF (and Pulumi) (like Kubernetes) is for everything else.
That is a circular argument. That is the same argument as print vs original -- NFT owners are paying for the original to support the art regardless of how accurate a print may be.

It's much more impressive to those people to have paid to support the original rather than having a knockoff... This has been true as long as goods have been produced.
I'm pretty sure you can have nice AND real people. But yes, nice people are typically a pleasure to be around.
This is pretty much what Google+ had/ failed due to.

If only relevant content is shared within a 'circle', people appreciate it, sometimes ignore it, and move on. Consistent controversy and drama is avoided, which just so happens to be a key driver of social media engagement.

I feel unsafe any time cars are involved, whether I'm outside, a passenger, or driving. Cars are much more dangerous than a lot of things people worry about. I'm very happy to see computers making them much safer.

Home routers (and even small business routers from companies you'd expect better from like Ubiquiti) are often completely missing the UI for stuff like IPv6 firewall and it's a real tragedy and definitely something that is holding back adoption.

Hm, this seems to be missing the point that plant monocrops destroy the soil and are not nearly as efficient a source of food for the human body as fresh animal meat. Regenerative agriculture, which ideally requires both animal and plant cultivation, would be a better path forward if it could scale.

1. No one assumes that they have perfect information. No one says this is perfect just better than the other ways to handle these situations!

2. Who do you think will consistently have better information than someone whose sole goal is to sell these tickets?

3. If they are consistently losing money scalping and not selling tickets they won't be a scalper much longer.

4. This is a dynamic process which can account for changing variables regarding supply and demand quickly as opposed to rules and regulations which do not.

5. If they only sell half the tickets at 4x then they could sell the last half at an extreme discount and make even more than double their investment! Do you think they would rather make more money or less?
What are its main points?
Most of the comments assume that with NFTs you are buying just a piece of digital image with no utility whatsoever. And yes, it is the case with most of the things we see on https://opensea.io/.

But on the other hand, there are a bunch of interesting projects out there where you can do some cool things with your NFTs, like the "card game" Axie Infinity and other ripoff projects - with a very few original ones - inspired by it.

NFTs for collectible card games is promising and maybe this can lead to some other interesting use cases in the future.

Anyway, I recommend searching for "utility nft projects". Most of them seem just like something to steal money from other people, but again... there are some interesting things coming out from it.

If they're your auditors, they're not just in their office; they're in your office.
