I think you are being unfair towards GoF. GoF came out when Object Orientation was the rage and it provided a useful compendium of solution archetypes that can be used in response to (solved, recurring) problems. That is not to cast aspersions on your personal experience. It sounds like you had an encounter with an Architecture Astronaut and ended up in a bad place, but the fact that you are writing about it is a good thing, isn't it?

I also agree that "changed my x" is a bit of a stretch; perhaps it's hyperbole and should be taken as such. There are very few "things" that change one's life. Perhaps being in a war, or a natural disaster or some such, having an encounter with death but averting it or some such event could singlehandedly change one's life, but I doubt that reading a book or a set of books is one of them.
Oh ok so they apparently do give them some kind of a little play vote at their yearly "shareholder" fanfest at lambeau field once a year.

This thing is like buying a Packers jacket and trying to say you own some of the team...

The timeline referred in the title is a little off. Krause house was started a couple months ago and has been active for a bit, while ConstitutionDAO was spun up and closed down in less than two weeks
Correct me if I'm not understanding this DAO "revolution" correctly:

- A group of people pool some money together.

- The money is used to buy assets/fund projects.

- Members vote on spending, governance etc., with their vote being proportional to their investment.

- They can raise money by issuing more "tokens" for new investors.

- Existing members can sell their tokens to someone else.

Like, congrats crypto community, you just invented a...public company?
Thanks for the kind words. One of the things I have always loved about EVE is how open it is (relative to other MMOs) with information like this as well as providing APIs [1] and game data dumps [2]. The data isn't always perfect, and the APIs don't always cover everything the playerbase wants, but I'm just happy any of it exists in the first place! I used the data dump in conjunction with this log parsing to get an automatic "distance from my current location" of enemy players. It isn't anything too special—other developers have made much better tools—but it has been a very fun project.

It's amusing that this happened and embarrassing for the journal, the author and reviewers. I don't see that there are grounds for retraction, though. Retraction should be reserved for articles which are incorrect, based on fake data, plagiarized, etc.

>trolls

I hate their usage of 'troll' too. To me, 'troll' means a guy who argues about 0.9 bar not equaling 1 in a math forum. I have no idea what the hell these people mean when they say 'troll'.
Huh. I have to begrudgingly agree that you're right. I have a few nitpicks and quibbles, but you're mostly right.

My counter-arguments which are mostly commentary:

- Speed doesn't go up to 3x+ (internal users can go up to 20x speed, see the source code)

- Focus issues mean left/right/up/down/home/end might change the volume, playback position or page scroll, and there is no indication of what will happen; I typically middle-click the video to focus it before using the keyboard, or sometimes try hitting 'k' twice to see if the video reacts

- There's no way to say "my connection is being stupid, please buffer this to the end"

- The speed detection often gets confused on my (objectively terrible) ADSL2+ and drops me down to 360p or 240p; I'm often manually switching back to 720p (the max my connection can reasonably sustain)

Everything else in your list though... I have to admit that yeah, those features do work :)

Position restoration would probably be my favorite.

I'm well aware of what this is and your description of it is quite overblown.

Nb. He's just using the N = 2 DFT to solve a quadratic equation. This approach is well-understand in the context of Galois theory, eg. the N = 3 DFT reduces the general cubic to a set of at most quadratic equations, and in general, you can DFT your way down a Galois Group's composition series whenever it's solvable.
It slots nicely with Blender and Krita in what might be the perfect indie developer production pipeline.
this sounds to me like the same logic cults run on. If the world doesn't end with the Maya calendar, that's only stronger reason to believe it'll end the next year.

I'm honestly not sure if the fact that every week there's some other harebrained MLM type crypto scheme going up in flames is somehow suggesting that there's some massive success around the corner
They’re going for a minority stake, along with a few other intermediate milestones
Really? Do you have any evidence to support this claim?
Colon isn't a type of pause; at least, I only ever use it to introduce lists. I don't use it for timing or tonality.

This discussion makes it painfully clear to me that I over-punctuate. I mean, I knew I leant more towards elaborate sentence-construction than is fashionable; I've never liked txt-speak, and my thumbs are too fat and flabby for operating miniature virtual keyboards.

I try to write literate emails. That is also unfashionable, apparently, but I think it's considerate to the reader to use the expressive power of the language. In fact emails now seem to mostly be an alternative channel for sending txts. I think this is because of mobile apps that present the same UI for txts and emails.

So I send a carefully-considered email, with paragraphs and all that, and I get back a reply of the form "Yes! <emoticon> <emoticon>".

On semi-colons, I use them to append a clause with sentence structure (roughly subject, main verb, object) to the main part of a sentence, while keeping the two clauses together as a single "thought".
This episode [1] of Darknet Diaries tells the story of someone with an early Twitter/Instagram account, and how it was targeted by scammers. Pretty scary.

>Are there pedophiles abusing children in your country? Then go arrest them. They won't be posting anything on the internet while they're in prison.

And how do you stop the spread of the child porn already on the internet? Just leave it up since you can arrest people who make it or consume it?

There are other things the government should probably stop as well. C&C servers for malware. What is your solution when the people involved in malware are in another country and that country isn't taking care of the problem?
Genuinely unreadable. This could have the secrets to living forever and I'd probably give up on the principle that this guy has created the most elaborate system ever for explaining a fairly simple topic. Why do you even use a microblogging site if you're going to do the opposite of microblogging?

Right but it’s like a meta company. Like, a company of anything, not just traditional businesses. Plus the whole process is totally streamlined and, outside of rug pulls, super transparent. Ownership and transfer of ownership is in front of everyone’s eyes.

It’s like what Amazon did. People could buy stuff before, but now they could buy stuff with much more ease (search, order, return etc).
Same, I also have a three letter nick. Constant reset attempts, spam, fake offers of thousands of USD to transfer it.
i am afraid that what they mean by troll is code for anyone who disagrees with their narrative
Don't do it when you're trying to fall asleep, do it when you're bored and have nothing else to do. I think I'm really good at visualizing because I spent most recesses by myself imagining I had friends.
and what did they mean? delete your facebook and instagram? I guess the focus is on the "content" and not the "people" but I didn't really know they were distinct categories until now
Same way shareholders manage their ownership stake now? They elect a board of directors that oversees the senior management?
This is good advice for something like finance. But many software companies are out to "disrupt" very broad areas, and unless you intend to stick in one such area, I doubt there is a whole lot of benefit to doing that.

For example, if you are developing software at Uber, there is no "domain" to speak of. Ditto for a search engine at Google. The company pioneered information retrieval in the internet age, so what's the relevant "domain" there?

Of course, if you are writing MCAS software for Boeing, having a good understanding of Control Systems, or Aeronautics (which you can gain by attending nontraditional programs in colleges or universities) will be very helpful. Same thing for something like trading firms (where it's practically formalized and there are programs that turn out quants), accounting firms (e.g., Intuit) etc.
I'm sure that's the closest description of what I observe. For me it works in this way: I'm bad at recalling past moments and if they form, they are vague vanishing grey photographs, but I can create and transform 3D models, all of that is done entirely in my head without any visual effects coming from eyes. Just like you I also have really good auditory memory, in fact I can sense Giant Steps playing at the moment and I'd say only the drums are hard to remember.
I assume none of the existing regulations or laws that involve public companies apply to DAOs? Like can you pool the money and then do nothing or go against what was agreed upon?
Of course laws already exist and the laws give the government the power to remove servers and other things like that. This means the current laws prevent the web from being the wild west.

Just to be clear, I am against this law, but trying to say we should have the wild west seems like a bad idea.
I can’t tell if you mean they included `.DS_Store` in their ignore file or left it out, but including it is just good practice.
We call it freedom...
Speak for yourself buddy. I am 50+ and sharper than ever. Having a lot of deep experience makes it easy for experienced developers to do in a day what it takes younger unexperienced developers months to do. It’s especially fun when young self-important arrogant developers ignore advise from experienced people and end up in a cluster f** hell hole of their own choosing. While being too stubborn to admit defeat and ask for help. The “I told you so” feeling is most enjoyable :)
i am really starting to hate this timeline
Pretty decent support for mono and C# in Godot 3.x. It’s not perfect, but most things are well supported. There is a proposal to move everything to .NET 6, but it has been delayed until after the big Godot 4.0 release (4.1 next year at the earliest.)

https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/issues/2333

A big challenge is that the current architecture requires a custom build of the engine that builds the whole executable as a .NET app that just happens to execute all the C++ engine code rather than a regular executable that integrates other languages as a plug-in. In theory, this is fine, and maybe ideal for modern .NET, but I don’t think there is much institutional support within the project for making special exceptions for C#. I believe they also no longer have the source of external funding (maybe MS?) that funded the original mono integration.

So, from my perspective, C# development has languished and might not make the leap to Godot 4. It appears to suffer from a chicken/egg problem where a majority of current users simply prefer GDScript. I think it would be a loss to drop C#, however, as I’m sure there are developers out there (myself included) who would prefer a modern .NET integration over mono and are holding out to see what the future holds.
I did not, but only because in my case the monetary damage was not sufficient to pursue it. I would have liked to have seen those responsible be prosecuted for it, though.

If the monetary damage was high enough vis-a-vis the ability of the public system to deliver me restitution for my losses, I'd very quickly be hiring private detectives yes.
Their website [0] seems to disagree with you. They’re currently selling stocks for $300 each and have sold a total of 5,000,000 in the past, suggesting a total raised on $1.5 billion overall. Obviously that’d be in today-dollars, but the current sale has already raised $41 million in the last week or so [1], so the number seems in the right order of magnitude. Certainly having raised “hundreds of millions of dollars” sounds right though I haven’t been able to find reliable sources for the previous stock offerings to confirm.

The official stock website [2] also says the following about the voting rights.

“Q: How many votes will I receive for purchasing Common Stock?

A: You will have one vote for each share of Common Stock you purchase.”

I’m not sure what those votes actually count for, but they at least exist.

But 0.9 bar isn't equal to 1. Oh! I see what you did there!

I think they are using it to mean something closer to "cyberbully", maybe.
That's no different than any other common stock you can buy
It always baffled me browsers even try to download an image (or a page or whatever) I asked them to save despite fact they have already downloaded and displayed it. What I would want them to do instead is just dump it from the memory.

And this sounds particularly important in case it's about a web page which has been altered in runtime by JavaScript - I want the actual DOM dumped so I can then loaded it to display exactly what I see now.
Considering that most cases of theft don't end up in public courts? Yes I'd be happy to go to mandatory arbitration.
While you’re mostly right on the stock structure, you’re both (a) overstating the capital raised in the offerings by a significant amount and (b) overstating that the team “has no owner”. The team has an owner. It’s Green Bay Packers, Inc., represented by an elected president. The ownership structure is tolerated by the NFL because they’re quite old school but it will never be repeated.

If you work with the SEC on the governance of Green Bay Packers securities, it’s alarming how loose you are with facts. I suspect “work with the SEC” boils down to got coffee for your lawyer while you were in the room, because you’re saying some plainly false things that even Wikipedia, that bastion of truth, quickly proves wrong.

>What's next is that your brain is going to be slowly deteriorating

No, it isn't. Your eyesight is going to drop, you'll need reading glasses. When you hit 50 or so, your vitreous humor will detach from your retina (if you're nearsighted like me), so you'll deal with floaters forever. So, bigger screens, with less text in a given area than you now enjoy.

Your physical health will slowly go, but that shouldn't stop you from programming for a very long time. Your ability to switch tasks and handle interruptions, will drop... flow takes time to achieve. Email is asynchronous for a damned good reason, answer it once you're done programming.

Mostly, you'll get grumpy when poked, but the computing resources should keep getting better for another decade or so before leveling off, so there's that.
Writing individual programs is often quite simple, but developing software products is often not. It's a combination of taste, hard-won experience, a feel for the organizational dynamics at play, and of course, raw programming ability. Note that the things on the list, other than programming, are often pretty complicated!
The most important part of this post doesn't even have anything to do with cryptocurrency:

> If the broad masses of people disagree with the platform landlord, their opinion will be altered to conform with the rules, or else they will no longer have a voice.

We really need to fix that problem.
Exactly. Also from the article:

> the group of some 2,000 members raised the equivalent of $4 million U.S. in the cryptocurrency Ethereum in six days.

Even after the ConstitutionDAO situation, using the same cryptocurrency which is bringing in the same problems.

The supporters of this hopelessly utopian endeavor seem to never learn and will end up bag-holding for years.

Spending more money for less than nothing.
> Dodge city cowboys are a myth based on thin facts and nothing about the wild west is good regarding internet governance

Nothing about the real wild west as you describe it has anything to do with the internet. Where are the analogous internet cows or commercial exploitation of internet prairies, or sweeps westward? This is all nonsensical. The literal reality of the wild west has nothing to do with regulating "trolls" (criticism of politicians) online.
the links are the media, and the comments are also media.

newspapers are media, right?

so are digital newspapers also media?

what about just a collection of headlines?
Hmm, I've read it a bunch of times now but am still unsure: they ARE sending every bit of data - position, scale, rotation etc - about every cube/model/asset for a scene ("Since the scene is marked for replication [...your quote]")... and then after that they are syncing selected properties of that data ("player_name", "positions") every 16ms. Is that right? If you have a Fortnite-style map, every time you joined a game you would get all the map/model pos/rot/scale data sent to you?

And for messaging, I wrote "Why is integrating state synchronization with messaging a useful thing?" but I guess it would have been clearer if I asked "Why is integrating state synchronization with RPC a useful thing?"... what are some examples of what that's used for?
Not saying we are there, but if inflation is due to worker shortages and logistics problems that are long term (say due to long covid), then at what point do you stop calling it just inflation and start calling it some kind of shortage crisis? Maybe when rationing starts? Is there a threshold of unaffordability or something, some technical measure that tells us this is more than the usual kind of trouble? Would inflation due to shortages cause a recession or depression? I'm not sure, everyone might be employed, earning reasonable wages, and many things might function as they always have so it doesn't seem like it would be a recession or depression, yet if workers/goods are scarce life might become more difficult for everyone. Is there even a name for this in economics? It's similar to a World War, where a large percentage of the young were missing so there were fewer workers (although in a war lots of resources were also destroyed, which is not the case now). Just curious if there has been any formal economic analysis of this kind of thing in the past.
Isn't Facebook already censored and guarded strictly? And you won't have wild free parts for grownups if you let the government legislate against "trolls" and "bigots" on the internet. Today they'll just force Facebook into removing "harmful" content but you are incredibly naive if you think they'll stop there.
I think about this approach every two weeks, when I hear that somewhere in the world there's a new initiative to treat the internet like a kindergarten. Sure why not, but I would like to sign up for the wild west, the easily offended and gullible can live happily on the safe side, thanks.
You went from calling everything I said “completely false” and going off on how there are no voting rights, to admitting you are fully aware of the Packers Public Offering Document but that my description is “overblown”.

The public offering document speaks for itself and I quoted it, so what’s overblown about the description? If you think it’s fraudulent launch your complaint with the SEC instead of arguing on HN about it and prove your intellectual superiority.
No. I understand the value of Docusign. But OP asked for a free solution, and that solution is email. If OP asked for an open source alternative to Dropbox, rsync would be an appropriate answer AFAIk

I'm not saying he isn't unambiguously bad, at least in terms of events contemporaneous. I'm saying that the main characters in Bebop exhibit moral ambiguity, even (and especially!) if they eventually do the morally right thing from the viewer's perspective. Their journey towards the right thing is, after all, what makes them interesting to us; Bebop would be a lot less interesting if the characters didn't struggle with their histories, impulses, &c.

(Another example of moral ambiguity I just remembered: Spike's personality and design are an explicit reference to Lupin III, the platonic anime anti-hero.)

> Most of the people with bounties are actually doing bad things, and bounty hunting itself isn't illegal in the setting.

Illegal is one thing, and morally ambiguous is another: being a bounty hunter is perfectly legal in the US, but I think most people would consider it a morally ambiguous job.

2- Leapmotor T03

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkOqIEUAlw4

There was a recent Sandy Munro video, where he basically stated that because the Chinese started on the EV bandwagon much earlier (due to executive fiat) They simply have more options...not because they are any more genius, but simply because they had the time and the drive to actually work on the damn thing.

He was called to consult on various cars, and by seeing the progress of their operations, he can see that the Chinese have strengthened their supply lines, removed a lot of the kinks and ramped up production and are getting good with design and fit/finish quality.

If you want cheap EV, look to China
No, you don’t. A van or station wagon could easily do the same.

Apologies on the title. It is a bit misleading in that it it is a different DAO (Krause House).

Just following the HN guideline: "please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize." from https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html with a minor change to the original title to fit length restrictions.

Not sure if the NPR headline writers understood the DAO difference or just wanted to generate more interest in the story.
It's more like a co-op. The difference is that every participant has a voice. With the traditional public company - with few exceptions - decisions are made only by the board and the execs.
I'm pretty sure there are crypto projects where you could, in fact, short it. Check out Beta Finance for instance.
I'm pretty sure that the Green Bay Packers are in fact a publicly-owned non-profit corporation. A share in the Packers is not the same as a share of common (or preferred) stock, but it is a share in ownership that actually matters. It's very easy to prove this: the Packers have remained in the smallest market in all of North American major professional sports for over a century. They stay there because all those "little play votes" matter.
