Yup, that is also why there are laws against Receiving Stolen Property [1] in the US. This is defined as:

>>According to general receiving stolen property laws, it is a crime to accept or purchase any property which you believe or have actual knowledge that it was obtained through illegal means, such as theft. However, receiving stolen property is its own separate crime and thus should not be confused with the similar criminal acts of theft, robbery, or extortion.

No, crypto does not 'theoretically' hold out better than USD or other things.

An asset - no matter what it is - is only going to have value in the future depending on how others are going to a value it.

This means does it survive war? National collapse? etc..

USD is a currency, not a store of value, it's designed to be slightly inflationary. That's policy and public information. Don't hold them for 'long term' but it will at least have some value.

Gold and Real Estate (to the extent you can control that real estate, which depends on rational social organization etc.) - will probably hold their value. As will some other things.

Crypto would be the last choice among many as a store of value, as they could all be wiped out in a second, forget the issues of what financial fashions might come into place in the future.

Crypto is still 100% experimental, and every dollar traded in crypto, is at least today, purely speculative, no different than trading Baseball Cards. But without at least the Baseball Cards. That's where it is today and while something might come along, nothing is quite on the horizon just yet.

How can they know the intent? UK government is increasingly becoming a nightmare dystopia. I doubt many "antivaxers" are knowingly spreading false information. What the government/establishment/authority-de-jure says is the truth is rarely the whole truth.
this is how i feel too. i want FSD to succeed and i dont want it to destroy itself during the beta. But the videos ive seen are how you put it, people say "whoa that was close" and then re-engage autopilot and have 3-4 more incidents in the same session

This is how I feel. I'm all for encouraging potential victims to take reasonable precautions, but especially when the system could be fixed if a few people tried, it eventually gets tiresome. I've been given free "credit monitoring" a few times because of data breaches at places that should have done a better job of protecting my data. But there is so much noise impacting my credit score that I just don't even bother looking at it anymore. I would hope this property system does better, at least. The annual "no activity" email would at least be nice occasional dose of peace-of-mind.

Apparently all news reports must be based solely on trends from statistically valid publications. Ignore the fact that most news is of the "man bites dog" variety and not the "dog bites man trend decreases 3% year-over-year" variety.
Yes, yes it is a low effort comment. And it is exactly what I was trying to preempt. It adds exactly zero to the conversation to say "but the law" or "but drivers ed" or "but some proverbial rule of thumb".

For better or worse neither your fantasy of how people ought to act nor the letter of the law is reflective of how the overwhelming majority of the human population operators motor vehicles or expects others to. Is it ideal? Probably not. But it's a decent balance between being somewhat prepared for the expected traffic oddities, leaving margin for some subset of the unexpected and efficient use of road space.

I'm sure this will be an unpopular comment because there is no shortage of people here who think humans adhere to laws the way a network switch adheres to its configuration but the reality is that there is not perfect alignment between how reasonable traffic participants behave and the letter of the law.
Is there stories of people getting their property stolen this way?

My guess is that in France, if such a story as the article happended, the buyer would be kicked out of the house (and probably lose their money stolen by the fraudsters) but maybe I'm completely wrong.
So what's untrue is whatever the establishment and captured-incompetent institutions decide is untrue? E.g. posting that Ivermectin shows 50%+ reduction in mortality (citing the studies) would have high probability to be deemed "spreading false information" - based on current behaviour regarding even mentioning Ivermectin?
The brain is wired with language. Our inner monologues are most commonly speaking to ourselves using words. Reading is similar to meditation in that it's about YOU controlling your thoughts, putting focus into what you're reading. Additionally, the content is the result of a process: some form of author qualification, editing, formatting, publication took place. It's also intimate: just the author and you (although, this is not necessarily true). But on the whole I suspect there's more integrity on the printed page, less "big money" certainly. In summary, there are lots of reasons why reading deserves a privileged place.

However, if you want to learn something, you gotta go at it from every direction: maybe first of all just try head on, try & fail. Then read books if available, of course, but search online, look for YouTube videos, seek out mentors, and so on. Just like everything else you can only read effectively for so many hours per day.

In the end I can only really speak for myself: reading books feels TO ME like one of the best possible uses of time. You would have to pry the books out of my cold dead hands, etc. So just out of fellow feeling I try to encourage others to read more. But whatever works for you!
Why can’t it supplement public transport? I have to walk 15 minutes to take a 20 minute bus to a transit station. I could drive there in 10 minutes.

Self-driving cars seem ideal for last mile transit.
When it comes to shoplifting the problem is the law, not the cops. In many places there is, in effect, no legal penalty for shoplifting even if "caught". Here in New York shoplifters are not prosecuted. Even if "arrested" they are issued a desk appearance ticket and are back at the same store in hours to shoplift some more.
There's a great passage about this in Genome by Matt Ridley, which is a great book for anyone interested. In mammals both the male and female gametes imprint their DNA in their sex cells to repress certain genes, if you combine two generic sequences from two males (with no modification) the zygote forms with no brain and too much placenta and dies soon after. If you do the reverse with females, you wind up with a oversized head and no placenta. The working theory is embryonic development is a competitive environment, where males want the best for their offspring at the expense of the female host, and the females 'fight' back by limiting the amount of resources the child has. it's only been recently we've had the technology to remove the epigenetic markers from DNA sequences to allow combinations of same sex strands.
The problem is that NTSB has a bizarro prioritization scheme. They have spent huge efforts investigating things like hot air balloon crashes, and even Harrison Ford's crash landing a vintage airplane into a golf course. The crazier the incident, the more likely they investigate -- which is completely opposite of how they should be prioritizing. The result is that the common, everyday rear-end car crashes are just written off.
As a rule, foodborne pathogens are invisible. And odourless.

Binary search tree is more difficult than a binary tree. A BST is a BT but a BT is not a BST. So making a normal BT is just pointing nodes.
But what if I'm not the owner anymore? Specifically, I buy a house and purchase title insurance on it. Later, I sell the house to you. You trust me completely, so figure you don't need to buy title insurance. Later, unexpected to all of us, it turns out that my original purchase was somehow flawed, and someone else actually owns the house. You now ask me to now invoke my title insurance, and (since I'm such a nice guy) reimburse you. So I call up my title insurance company, and explain that while I no longer even think I own the house, something was amiss in my original purchase, and I want them to reimburse me. The title insurance company agrees that there was a problem at the time of my purchase. Will they then say "Yes, you're right, the check is in the mail" or "No, be that as it may, once you 'sold' the house we're off the hook; tell the guy who 'bought' it from you to contact their title insurance company"?

To help run our business, we operate an in-house Ruby on Rails (6.0) application to aggregate data, manage reporting, payroll, and lots of other internal functions.

It's not that difficult to imagine "what" decides something is true or false. Evidence. People that have issue with this, are usually those that think that someone's "opinion" is "truth".

It should be straightforward to chop something up in Observable. OpenSecrets has an API https://www.opensecrets.org/open-data/api/
Yes, but you likely live in a first-world country with generous options for banking. Bitcoin can serve anyone anywhere, regardless if they live in a privileged country or not. Try using your USD bank to send/receive money as a citizen of Iran or Libya or Nigeria. There are over 1 billion unbanked in the world today. They cannot use the US dollar easily online.
The courts, presumably. They already decide if information is true or false for legal purposes so this is not going to be new to them

It's also a problem that the camera could have degraded vision that's inadequate for self driving yet report no problem at all and continue driving as if everything's fine.

I'm pretty sure your situation isn't the only way the vision can be obstructed, maybe liquids, or even bird poop can also degrade vision.

The only real point of stable coins seems to be tax/sanctions evasion. Given that, no respectable institution (tier 1 banks etc) will run one. Given that, all stable coins are only stable till the disreputable nature of the operator catches up with them...
You are electing your government I get why people jump to censorship conclusions and what not but in the end if we all look a bit more to whom we are electing we might just get this right instead of building the dystopian future everyone seems to look forward to.
Never heard about the poll, neither did anyone I know. So I wouldn't count that as evidence of anything
My guess it's a process: 1) you post something "untrue", 2) the captured-incompetent establishment/government tells you it's untrue, 3) you post it again, 4) they arrest you because "you knew it was untrue because we told you it was."
"Of course this is a trivial problem to solve with smart contracts, "

No, it doesn't. The 'contract' was never the issue really. We need a judicicial and regulatory system in which the contract is valid, the means to redress issues, undo transactions.

Now, $300 is probably too much to move money and speaks to the incumbency of financial actors ... but a good chunk of that cost is actually the reality of the fact that it takes a lot of very smart, very conscientious and super 'small-c' conservative running financial infrastructure.

I think regular fintech startups will beat down that $300 cost faster than crypto will.
Are you spreading misinformation on social media (assuming HN qualifies)?

Look at the poll yourself, linked at the bottom of the article.
Facebook 36% positive, 33% negative.

Of course their public image has not been improving, as there is high frequency campaign from newspapers and TV news to attack their competition. CNN in particularly has wanted to deflect blame to Facebook for all of the free airtime CNN gave Trump in 2016. However, it seems to be quite a stretch to extrapolate from 2019 survey that listed 33% negatives for Facebook.

My complaint with them is the whole thing with mobilecoin. They hid that integration for a year, by not pushing server updates and when the news hit, they promised to do an AMA explaining it all. Its been months since that has happened and the AMA never happened.

Moxies involvement is very muddy and never clarified, it was a pump n dump at best.https://amycastor.com/2021/04/07/signal-adopts-mobilecoin-a-...

That incident, they lost a lot of respect for me.

I don't know why you think that. Insurance companies working together is an iterated game with no clear end point. It makes all the insurance companies more money if they just settle all claims as quickly as possible, as long as the total money changing hands among all claims is correct to within the margin of how much much they save from not investigating.
I'd like to see people actually spending it day to day items, rather than hoarding it or spending it on blackmarket/illegal goods. There's a claim that people send money home to families in other countries, but I don't see how that could be trillions? And when pressed, enthusiasts hide behind "third world" claims.

No one is buying groceries with it. No one is buying commodities with it. People are buying it to get rich. Even in El Salvador, it failed immediately because the transaction fees were too high and the stipend given to citizens swung in value too radically.

I will be convinced when people are buying groceries with it and not trying to become crypto mill/billionaires overnight.
For years every years flagship phone camera comparison reviews have varied largely by reviewer preference over whose post processing they prefer, which they often even note. Favourites varying from brand to brand year to year. For photos.

I have never seen anyone suggest that another phone camera touches the iPhone in terms of video quality. In fact in these days of casual user content creation, this wave you say apple missed, video remains a minor element of camera write ups and I can’t help but think it’s because “if you care about shooting video with your phone at all and have the money, get an iPhone” is all that can be said on the matter.

Phone camera tech isn’t stagnant. It’s one of the(just the?) most important factors people value in their phones. Apple is making an intentional choice to prioritise video quality. I hardly think that’s them missing user generated content. They’re just cashing in at the device purchase level rather than diving in to the algorithm driven ad feed engagement game.
I agree, but let's not forget GPUs have improved considerably in the past decade.
