OK those POAP are on a decentralised blockchain but it seems to be a useless constraint to depend on a specific contract and their creator for this use case. It's like doing centralization on top of decentralization.

Event organisers could provide attendance proof with their own contract/address and you'd still have a proof of attendance as long as the organization is verifiably linked to the contract/transaction issuer.

You then only need a database (easily shareable) of verified event organizers to be able to verify anyone event attendance history.

All the fluff on top of the attendance verification mechanism provided by this company doesn't depend on the blockchain at all.
Wasn’t there also some kind of watchlist where they track up to 7000 mutations in a given timeframe? Probably just minor mutations, but still.
‘Battery arms race’: how China has monopolised the electric vehicle industry

Your description of PRISM is wrong. The FBI issued court orders for the content (not metadata) of specific accounts to US Internet companies. The Internet companies reviewed the court orders and set up forwarding of some of those accounts' data. PRISM then ingested a subset of the data from the FBI DITU's systems (those collected from foreign accounts) into the NSA's databases. The slides Snowden released are very clear about this.
> The ledger itself does not know about the deal we made but we both know we made a deal and according to that deal you still owe me 1700 sats. Now with a traditional bank what happens if you claim you sent it and the bank says you didn't. How can I verify that the transaction took place? I can't. I have to trust what you or the bank tell me and I don't know who is telling the truth. Maybe the transaction got lost. Maybe you didn't send it. There is no way to discover the reality of the situation without having to make an uninformed choice about who I trust.

Because the bank is acting as the (government approved) escrow service! Basically - The bank is arbitrating the dispute to resolve it (whether you like how the bank resolves that dispute is mostly irrelevant here).

Let me ask you to follow up, given what you've said:

> If you say you are going to send me a 1700 sats to post a postcard to you and I deliver as promised but in reality you don't perform your part of the deal the ledger is still correct. You still owe me 1700 sats according the deal we made and I can confirm this by checking the ledger. The ledger itself does not know about the deal we made but we both know we made a deal and according to that deal you still owe me 1700 sats.

Now what? Fill me in on how we resolve this situation in your mind, once we've reached this point.
Re #15 I watched a show about a boy who got infected with ecoli. The defence was plasma transfusion (I think) which was experimental at the time. He survived … barely. The bacteria tore through his body, made a hole in his stomach. The point is out sophisticated defence goes beyond the immune system into the knowledge, technology, science. Imagine what covid would be like without technology, governments, money, coordination. May have spread more slowly at the global level of course without technology but would be way more deadly.
Going to assume you meant this seriously; but just to enumerate the things you aren't certain about:

- IF the cardiac arrest risk indeed rises 5x

- AND that is not related to study effects (perhaps the risk of those athletes using performance enhancing drugs which you presumably aren't using was many time higher than 5x)

- AND the chance of of 5x higher cardiac arrest risk is higher than the increased risk you run of dying from COVID

- AND the risk of booster shots increasing cardiac arrest risks (which has not been proven yet) is indeed exponential, which seems quite unlikely at first glance (since the dose of boosters is only increasing linearly over time)

And several other factors I can't think of off the top of my head. It looks like you are assigning a very high risk to booster shots and assigning a very low risk to dying of COVID. Given the amount of people who have died of COVID vs the amount of people who have died from booster shots this seems like a misassignment of risk.
An LTS distribution based on Fedora (and NOT RHEL) is something I've been wanting for a long time, but I don't think this is really gonna be for the non-cloud general use case?

Welp, better luck next time.
I second this, we use it to manage a bigger fleet with a few hundred machines. One thing to keep in mind though is that it will not apply kernel updates (as those require a reboot) so you still need to account for it.
Lets get to the point, really. The only way magnetic confinement will ever achieve confinement times conducive to technologically useful power output will come from electromagnetic field strengths beyond what we are capable of doing at the present time with bitter superconductor magnets. And should we discover the secret to making this superlative magnetic field, we will need structures capable holding it together without smashing itself to bits. Stronger magnets mean tighter and tighter gyroradii. Every atomic collision pushes the plasma to the edges and there is no magic to stopping it. There is really no such thing as magnetic confinement. The magnetic fields only slow the progression to the walls. It can work if the progression is slow enough. 17 telsa magnets is only a fraction of the strength needed for anything practical. Go for 100 teslas or come back and say it will be another 30 years.

Whoever figures out the hypermagnet will be just one step away from producing net fusion that is useful. I'd say divert all attention to that instead of new tokamaks. We know tokamak will work (economically too), if it only had the secret ingredient of unbelievably powerful magnets.

the color scheme is not "crucial information". It is just meta-data. It could be contained in the file, or in the filename, or outside the file in a separate metadata file.
Both of those are about the phone metadata program I mentioned. That doesn't affect Apple.
Yes I was surprised Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas did not make it to this list. But then most people have a very narrow view of what sci-fi is, boiling it down to cyborgs and space.
I found it quite striking, that while infections here are balanced through age groups, fatalities are only 60+ and mostly 80+.

e.g. seen on the "Dashboard" on rki.de, chart "COVID-19 cases by age group and sex".

Stats indicate old people die. Duh. A tragedy in each case, but that's what will happen eventually, right?

And a mutated virus mostly is more contagious but less fatal, isn't it? A virus optimises for spreading, not killing it's taxi. Was like that with delta.
You dont have to speculate with maybe's. You need to look at the facts

All the big IT outsourcing companies are publicly listed, you can go to their website and check their annual reports to see how their revenue is going up for. You can see the number of employees keeps going up, the number of clients keeps going up. All these figures are available for 20 years now.
Here in Brazil this year I saw a bunch of Black November. Yes, in english, in a country where people normally don't know english.

Even weirder, is today a cosmetics company said that "Black Friday" (in english like that!) is a racist name and they are comitted to changing it.

Most people here don't even know what "Black" means. (or "Friday", for that matter).

The amount of USA culture "invading" our culture is really disturbing me. (alongside some other stuff like Coca-Cola in fur coat red santa, in the middle of our super hot summers, or people trying to plant conifer trees in sunny wetlands and then covering them with artificial snow, or the dish "Rosquinha", that got renamed "Donut" after Dunkin Donuts came here).

EDIT: remembered that some years ago the government made illegal for stores to write only in english on their storefronts, after there was a huge mania for writing "xxx% off on randomproduct" and this was causing confusion among consumers that had no idea what that means.
Medical professionals routinely work under influenza vaccine mandates. The antivaxxers among them have just always been afforded an escape hatch.

Unless there’s also a corresponding increase in somnambulism, “sudden collapse” doesn’t sound like it’s related to sleep.

The increase is over the last year. I don’t follow soccer so for all I know there has been an increase in PED year over year too. Or it could be any number of other confounding factors.

As for the cause, I feign no hypotheses. I just think that if and only if this increase is real it merits further research by persons with far greater subject matter expertise than myself. If the science ends up showing it is vaccine related than we should accept that, just as we should if it shows it isn’t. Fortunately, for the sake of the science, we’re going to continue gathering a great deal of data.

The locations of the spread of this variant might inform whether / when I choose to get a booster (third dose). If it starts spreading in the US, I might get a third dose to be safe. Until then, I'll avoid doing so as I do not want to contribute to domestic vaccine demand (which induces the US to stockpile more doses and export fewer doses to the rest of the world where they're more urgently needed).
With a proper type system you can't.

What a useless thing to say. The ap is talking about a tight feedback loop and you decide to make a condescending comment about type systems. Go back to twitter.
Huawei and Xiaomi phones have IR blasters as well. I always try to buy phones that have those, because A) "i lost the remote" and B) "shut off every TV at the store" is hilarious.

The first device i had that had this was a Palm, and it wasn't like "here's a remote control" it was "this 1 button will cycle every known TV IR code for the power button." Someone eventually released an actual IR blaster app for Palms, though.
Hadn't heard of fnm before, thanks. Seems worth checking out.
As far as I know, pure vanilla emacs from GNU comes with multiple vi emulations. I’ve been using viper for 20 years. It’s the only reason I use emacs at all. I had a co-worker many years ago who swore by emacs, but I found the key bindings completely counterintuitive having learned vi while getting my degree. Having made that discovery I was off to the races with emacs, and have never looked back.
When working on PHP only I didn’t care at all for the quirks or missing features. When going back and forth with other languages, PHP getting better becomes a huge quality of life improvement, the mental load we need to keep gets much lower.

PHP has always been a powerful language where the burden of making it work properly 250% relies on the dev. Stuff like enums should significantly reduce that ratio, it’s a big deal I think.

On the debugging part, I found something like ruby’s pry to be the easiest and fastest option. I wish PHP had something similar.
Considering how popular Drupal is with large government applications, PHP is going to be around a long time.

PHP has become better and better over the years!

Dead ends of information technology
SA is very undervaccinated (less than 25% per the link) so it's probably too early to say either way.
The reason why it has spread is American retailers, particularly Amazon, entering international markets.

In the US, Black Friday is the busiest shopping day of the year so American retailers discounted on that day. As they went into other countries, they began offering sales on that day too. In the UK, Boxing Day was traditionally the busiest shopping day of the year but most shops close on this day now. Wikipedia tells me that Boxing Day used to be the busiest shopping day in Canada.

I think the reason the practice is spreading into the rest of the month is because of the higher level of competition online. One retailer does Black Friday, then another retailer tries to jump earlier, then another. In the UK, we have had companies trying weekly and monthly sales.

The sales aren't bad, I think some retailers (Amazon, particularly) don't offer great value...ironic given they started Black Friday here in the UK...but if you hunt about, you can usually find some decent deals.
Isn’t it distracting to have to look and visually think about the keyboard in the midst of working? Genuinely asking. I literally can’t imagine having to look at the keyboard. And how much of a commitment is it really?

> Surely you must realize that you're protesting this because it has this reputation, though?

I've never heard anyone make this accusation until I read it here on HN today. The reputation doesn't seem to be widespread.

> Programmers work really really hard on learnability and understandability. This is a big deal to us. That's why we can't understand why it's not a big deal to you.

How to better teach math is like one of the most studied topics in education since it is so extremely important for so many outcomes. People learn programming faster since programming is simply easier, not because more effort has been done to make programming easy. There hasn't, way more effort has been put into making math easy and the math we have is the results of all that work.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematics_education_...

> Given the way you guys push back on being asked to write simple reference material?

Nobody pushes back on writing simple reference manuals. There are tons of simple reference manuals for math everywhere on the internet, in most math papers, in most math books, everywhere! Yet still people fail to understand it. Many billions has been put trying to improve math education, trying to find shortcuts, trying to do anything at all. You are simply ignorant thinking that there are some quick fix super easy to implement things that would magically make people understand math. There isn't. It is possible that math education could get improved, but it wont be a simple thing.
> Suppose someone found a way to passively and remotely read people's minds

Can a trained chimp do that now? No.

Can a trained chimp recognise a face. Yes.

Computer facial recognition is simply digitising human workflow, like converting a speech to text. I assume people also have a similar problem with electronic transcription or 'word recognition technology'.

Scanning peoples brains and reading their thoughts is literal mind reading science fiction.
Zsh does this too...but you have to configure zsh-autosuggestions.

The difference is that fish does this of the box with no configuration.
I'm also a recent Emacs enthusiast. Many many years ago, I never felt productive with the navigation and keys.

Then, recently, I _really_ wanted to try org and thought "I'll force myself to use it". I started with Evil mode and Doom. I was blown away tbh. What I thought to be an "old" tool that would slow me down, is actually a massive booster (and fun!). My personal experience, of course.
One also must control for physical fitness and age. Those are by far the most powerful factors correlating to severe covid morbidity or mortality.

The comparative disease vs vaccine risk assuredly differs between fit young FIFA players and obese geriatric persons. It may well be that even in the former case the vaccine reduces overall risk, but surely the effect is smaller than in the latter group.
Where this all becomes problematic is either government or corporate entities using it to manipulate and punish individuals for being individuals but not harmful to others. Controlling whether you can even get water food and shelter and imprisonment for not promoting or for demoting their own world view.

Wouldn't a land value tax hit the older poorer seniors the hardest? Those without an income and by not fault of their own they are forced to sell because the value of their house raised?

Taxing capital gains on principle residences means people are less likely to move up to a better home which creates a problem for first time home owners trying to enter the market as no supply exists.

Wealth tax requires you to know everyone's wealth. How are you going to get that information / verify on a yearly basis.
I think responses should be local, instead of countries essentially waiting and coordinating themselves in a cascade. If possible new variants should be contained at least until it is clear if they are more dangerous or not. So far china has been able to basically be covid-free by using local strategies, something we havent seen in the west
I think delta is also considered to be more deadly and has a much higher viral load than the original strain.

When was this written? Ctrl+f in the browser beats and pagination I’ve seen. By now everyone is well trained to scroll through endless feeds.

From UX perspective I hate pagination and I think in 2021 it’s an anti pattern.

From database and server load perspective, I understand it.

That's why the 'loss' of the UK is important: it has increased Germany's dominance over the EU.

France is not well managed enough economically and is also still shackled to the post-war policy of not disagreeing with Germany on anything.
Fully agree with your second paragraph but your first paragraph is nonsense.

We have evidence that Delta has a much larger viral load and that it has outcompeted the Alpha variant everywhere in the world. You have to be in total denial to pretend the Delta variant might have been no more transmissible than Alpha.
I'm curious. Why did you mention what it's currently worth?

Pretty neat utility concept. I'm currently working with this service to add interactivity with other NFTs.

I did have a poor experience setting up test events, but I think this is on their middle layer and hopefully can get cleaned up. Also annoying that the token points back to their API for full metadata.

This "company" might not be the winner, but the idea of POAP is promising both IRL & metaverse.

I personally have more faith in utility NFT than "art".
Everything is in the elevation.
I'm rather fit, used to be in the army nearly ten years ago. These days I hike now and then. Last weekend I went on a wee tip, 25 km and 1400 m elevation; it took me 9 hours, not including my lunch break. Only carrying water for the day, the said lunch, dry clothes and a bit of gear ; probably a 10 kg pack. Mild weather and decent track. On flat ground, I would have halved that time.

Was it worth it?
But Vince from YouTube was of course completely wrong there. At the time they recorded that video, there was overwhelming evidence that the Alpha variant was more transmissive. It was astronomically unlikely that it could have been explained by a founder effect or individual super-spreader events. Unsurprisingly, the evidence was correct while the uninformed pattern-matching from a non-epidemiologist was wrong.

For this new variant it could still plausibly be a founder effect. But that's because the circumstances are different this time (the variant became dominant while cases were surging from almost nothing, not when the cases were already at a high level). Not because that checklist is actually correct.
To add to this: yes, full blown IDEs have shortcuts but they are hard to explore, counter-intuitive and hard to extend.

Somehow, Microsoft managed to invent LSP for VSCode and then abandon some parts of it just a couple of years later -- e.g. python language server is dead, pylance is there instead, closed source, VSCode-specific and with prohibitive license. Most language plugins in VSCode don't use LSP anymore IIRC.
I know this quote. It was said once and the official statement was neither a confirmation or a denial. Which makes sense because why would Microsoft want to commit themselves either way?
