Ep 105: How can small businesses leverage integration marketing for growth?
> so it can't matter what happens to it

Even ignoring inheritance this is wrong, because you can sell it to someone who might outlive you, and spend the proceeds while you're still alive. The amount you can sell it for is going to be much less if there is substantial risk that the property goes away soon after the sale.
"So, what else are you going to store there?"

You can transfer BTC. What else can you do with a bank account?

"Ah yes. Insurance. With bitcoin's price fluctuating as much as 300% over the course of the year."

It's still early days. Fluctuation is better than devaluation to zero.

"There are 9 billion people in the world. How many "got canceled", for whatever the term "canceled" means to you. 10? 100? This will definitely make Bitcoin a global means of payment, surely."

At least a billion people in China, for starters. And you vastly underestimate the number of people who are being cancelled. You only hear about the famous cases. The number of people whose funds have been frozen by PayPal is legion. Also the people who are not cancelled yet may still be unhappy about constantly having to worry and having watch their steps to avoid being cancelled. It's not a good feeling. Sometimes stories even make it to Hacker News, maybe you missed them.

"People who don't have 25 dollars to open a checking account will surely flock to Bitcoin, where such a simple thing as a transaction can cost anywhere from 3 to 60 dollars per transaction over the course of the year."

Even those people will have banking needs, and the transaction costs are being tackled with things like Lightning. Fiat banking is not free, either.

"There are exactly two kinds of people who peddle bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies: scammers who know exactly what they are doing, and gullible fools with a very tenuous understanding of reality."

Or people who see the issues in our current system and try to create something better. People like you will probably be unable to understand the mindset of pioneers.
>once you prove you own the car.

Yeah, right. How would you do that? Have you ever bought a car?

When I had to get a new key for my friends car, I just quickly printed a sales contract and faked his signature.
You stated that nobody realized the sarcasm, but you didn't state how you know that. The GP is basically asking how you knew nobody got the sarcasm. The GP is implying it's possible that one or more people understood you, loved it, and didn't want to spoil the sarcasm fun by mentioning it, and instead feigned enthusiasm. The GP is implying it's possible someone added their own sarcasm on top of yours, but maybe you missed their sarcasm.

The GP wants more details about how you know this wasn't the case. Your post lacks sufficient detail to determine how you arrived at the conclusion that nobody noticed your sarcasm. Without reading their minds, you couldn't know for certain, and the GP wants more details about your reasoning process.
I mean, isn't this less about how good curl is and more about how HTTP/S is likely the most popular and most invested-in protocol in the history of the networked communication?
Your signup flow is repetitive.

I "signed up" with Apple Login and then it asks for all the info again.
The article title made it sound like it was intentional on their part, and not a design flaw.
The page looks cool, but I left immediately once the music started playing. There's a reason most websites stopped doing this.
How when we are not allowed to discuss scientific findings unless Fauci personally approves of it? Literally everything else is called disinfo and censored. It's more like the Inquisition than the scientific method.
I've often wondered why breeders don't do more cross-breeding across areas. Travel time aside, I think it would be a good investment into what is literally a business. e.g. If I'm a Border Collie breeder in Nevada, I could meet up with another Border Collie breeder in Arizona or Idaho and do an "exchange". While this does water down the lines, as each breed is probably generally in the top-tier form of whatever they've been bred for the past X00 years, I think a little genetic diversity would go a long way to help with these issues.

Perhaps I'm just naive and this is what happens already, but I feel like anytime that I've been on a dog breeder's website, it's just 5-10 males, 10-30 females, and their resulting litters.
The description omits the part why this seemingly convoluted game is needed in the first place.

When we, for example, learn about fractional numbers, we immediately visualize them as something between integers. We talk about the need to have something more than 2 but less than 3.

However here we look at a seemingly arbitrary game which somehow - after a convoluted process (intentional emphasis everywhere) divides numbers into having a property and not having it, without explanation why the property is there or not, or why it's important, and there is no "feeling" of the property.

I don't think this explanation is complete, even though it has good parts.
Lovely. Will use it for testing https://www.vitalfrog.com :D
I'm sure there's a critical flaw that was designed in, waiting to be discovered by the Rebel Forces.
I'm having a hard time understanding the details of hazard coefficients but I think people can probably get the gist of how they are coming to this conclusion from figure 1 of the paper. See plot A, daily primary infections have barely started to increase while daily reinfections are nearly at levels seen in wave 3. I think there must be some control going on to account for the fact that you can only get a primary infection once. At some point the primary infection plot is guaranteed to flatline. It seems like they could do some rough control for time since previous infection by excluding reinfections from more than 1 wave ago. If they see similar hazard ratios between waves then you could blame this on waning immunity rather than the genetic particulars of the virus. If they see only a slight decrease then it would be a combination of factors. If they see no decrease then this could be blamed purely on the bastard virus.
Not just yet but we built on React Native so it could be soon!
Laughs in Australian Shepherd. Idk how, but my Aussie manages to be simultaneously smart and dumb.
Lego still sells basic sets that can used to build everything.
It's a bad time to cut quality. Lego has never really had serious contenders in its decades of existence, but the Chinese knockoffs are getting pretty good from what I can tell. They are producing knockoff sets for 1/3 of the cost, and the quality is reaching lego-levels.

And this isn't low profit margin. Lego has gotten the Chinese to raid several of these guys (Lepin) and it didn't slow them at all.

The real gauntlet just got thrown down recently. Remember the UCS Millenium Falcon? Well a MOC builder made a UCS but with an interior model of the Falcon as well. Guess where you can buy that? Well, NOT Lego, and I think that's a problem in Lego management.

With the internet there should be FAR MORE Lego-provided sets. Sure, have the Harry Potters and Star Wars sets. But we are talking about a company that (granted to very good tolerances) is charging a LOT for very cheap plastic. They should be exploiting far more of the long tail.

Why can't I buy from Lego a complete set of old-school Classic Space? Or Castle? Why do sets go "out of print"?

They are leaving money on the table, and the Chinese/Malaysian/etc companies will happily fill the void.

From what I can tell, the fake Lego industry has already structured itself into a somewhat legal resistant form. The base legos are manufactured by one set of companies, which they can do 100% legally.

Those companies sell the blocks to the companies that produce the knockoff sets. If you raid those companies, well fine they lose some stock and they just setup somewhere else with the exact same sourcing.
Whatever route you choose for your SaaS funding, it’s going to require time and effort to secure. You’re likely to face a few rejections along the way, each one resulting in time-consuming edits of your funding pitch, but you should look at these as valuable lessons rather than failures.

Here we’ve compiled a checklist on how to get your SaaS funded: https://bit.ly/3jfVzR9

Hope it helps!

"Removed history to reduce repository size"
The joy and happiness is purely at the expense of unethical practices tho, that is my issue. These are living empathetic creatures, not designer fashion pieces (which is often what pure breeds are selected to emulate). There's no reason why you couldn't bread a healthy retriever dog, yes it may not look exactly like the current iteration of a golden retriever but it will live a life that is less likely to be purposely afflicted with pain or suffering.

I've only owned mixed dogs and they've all lived extremely health lives with zero joint, spine, breathing, or jaw issues.
Why talk about half-life and quarter-life here instead of full-life (which I guess is around 18-24 hours)? Having less than a quarter of caffein in your system does not impact your sleep?

Instagram Chatbot: The What, Why, and How
Those criminals and their potential victims (plus potential bots) "engage" with the platform. Until Google becomes liable for facilitating those scams, Google loses nothing and actually benefits from those scammers being there as they contribute to various engagement metrics. The same is true for any other engagement-driven company.
They also hire software engineers to integrate CUDA into open source projects. On the one hand, those projects can now take advantage of advances in hardware. On the other, users will have to buy NVIDIA to use it, so how open is it? Also NVIDIA will not provide any help with CI, so those costs are borne by the project – or the code isn't tested.
how does this criticism not apply to monitors or tablets, which boox already makes?
This feels like what you are describing is algorithmic or type abstraction. For your example, it's something like: Given some type Point which (I guess) interacts with some type Graph you should be able to run the Plot method. Or something. And in this case, yeah you can abstract, but it's not what I'm calling "data abstraction." [Maybe my name is just not quite right.]

Data abstraction would be getting some arbitrary Point object and then being able to look into the internals and do the right thing. Whether it's x and y or r and theta.

Now you might say, "that's just bad programming if you do that," but the point is that often times we don't have a choice in the matter because either of the constraints of the project OR because the "do the right thing" part interacts with non-code.

So for example, if you want to send your Point over the network, then you either 1) Need to know the internals, what they mean, and how they work or 2) have to send along code for the remote device to execute to handle your custom internals. Case 2 is generally not done (and presents some security issues regardless).

But this isn't just a technical issue. Names are notoriously difficult because data abstraction doesn't exist. How many first, middle, and last names does someone have? Is there a canonical ordering for the names? Does someone always have a name? What do the prefixes mean? What do the postfixes mean? These questions and more all have to do with what you're trying to use the name for AND what culture the name comes from. There is nothing you can do to abstract away the problem of names. And if you try you'll just end up with a lot of messy, complex code, that breaks all the time.
Elementary OS 6 Updates for November, 2021
It was one politician who blocked a full national health service back in the 70s despite bipartisan support for it - IIRC he used his position as ranking member on the Ways & Means committee to stonewall the whole thing. American political parties are probably some of the weakest in the world, they have almost zero ability to control what their members do or even who their members are.
Building the next generation of video players with Media Chrome – Mux blog
Great advice. You won't have to worry about the things the person you responded to until your 90's rather than your 70's. It's still worth thinking about.

My dad is in his 70's and is dealing with Lewy Body Dementia. It's terrible. If I start showing the symptoms, I'm definitely going to take control of my own death. Quality of life is far more important to me than quantity of life.
They may and I’ve heard they’ve tried before, but insurance is a highly different industry outside their core, and they will at least have to partner with an insurance carrier if they don’t want to write other mfgs for which they have zero data access. Otherwise Having 3 different insurance companies because one has different car brands would be an awful customer experience and pricing driver risk would get double billed
I work at Microsoft. Edge is doomed and unsustainable
Disclaimer: I work at Microsoft, but not on Windows or Edge. I am speaking anonymously.

If you aren't living under a rock, you may have heard about Microsoft Edge getting real annoying, whether the popups to set it as your "default" browser on Windows 10/11, the coupon code finder, or now the installment plan (does your browser *really* need that?).

Edge started out as a very lightweight Windows browser, but after the switchover to Chromium, it has become extremely bloated. Edge is just mindlessly adding features.

If you look at Opera (meaning the Chromium one), they have been mindlessly adding features hoping some feature would become a hit, while not really having real a differentiator versus Chrome. Why would I need a "free VPN" when Tor Browser is almost always a more secure option? And no wonder why Opera's marketshare is so small.

In comparison, Brave and Vivaldi have a clear goal on what they want in their browser. Brave wants to be the private, ad-blocking browser which helps the web move on from the advertising, Big Data, and AI-powered Internet we came to hate. Vivaldi has a smaller niche: the power user's customizable browser. On the flip side, Edge and Opera have no real goal on what they want to be while attempting to "compete" with Chrome.

Firefox isn't perfect either. Mozilla has certainly alienated users, but in the opposite direction of Edge. While Edge packs their browser with features, Firefox has been trimming out features hoping to become Chrome. I don't agree with the way Mozilla is going either, but not to the same extent, but I don't want Firefox to go all-in on Chromium.

But unlike Opera, Edge is trying to force people to use it by making Windows ignore a user's defaults. Want to set your default browser? Good luck setting HTM, HTML, HTTP, and HTTPS. Open a link in a Microsoft app or on Windows? It opens Edge regardless of what you set as your default.

Microsoft has gotten into trouble with antitrust with Internet Explorer in the past, but they don't remember it and are going back to the same tactics again with Edge. In the days when interest in antitrust is at a high, would Microsoft really want to try to force Edge if a lawmaker could retaliate and ban it (assuming they would do that), even if the said lawmaker was targeting the Apple App Store? I actually want lawmakers to encourage "competition" by banning Microsoft's tactics.

Edge is basically if Comcast or Oracle made your browser. It's gonna backfire very hard.

Even if Microsoft successfully makes people use Edge, they certainly won't be happy using it. They would use it not because they want to, but because they were forced to. It's like going back to the IE days along with the iOS App Store restrictions.
In a First, Alaska’s Arctic Waters Appear Poised for Dangerous Algal Blooms
What country do you live in that has a purely capitalist system? I’m curious how that would work out.

Even the USA has a lot of socialist policies that primarily benefit the wealthy(ie. Taxpayer funded mortgage deductions)
that'd be super cool. one or two days off every month! (in addition to weekends)!
I made no such claim, it's very hard to explain complex topics, much harder than 'just' understanding them. Certainly impossible in some cases.

But a shallower explanation is the essence of what encyclopedias are all about, IMO.
That depends on the background light in the room. In a dark room, light on black is the most readable.
Well, if you're adopting from a shelter, chances are the genetics are pretty varied.
Perhaps they updated it since, but this wasn't the case on focus two or three months ago. After a lot of googling, I could find other people mentionining the same issue but no solution.

Ultimately I rolled back my installation to a previous build, and have refused to update it since. I'll give the latest build a try on my backup phone.
For sure -- you should only get a working-breed dog (which tend to be the smarter ones as we view it) if you actively enjoy spending time on training with them.

If your ideal dog experience is sitting on the couch with them keeping you company, well, there's other breeds for that. :D

I have a pitbull/amstaff/boxer mutt, which is a pretty good balance on being smart enough to learn tricks quickly but still be kept happy with walks and toys. I'm staying well away from the border collies and Australian cattle dogs...
Outside of HN that would probably be phrased as 'become a burden on my family'.
It's popular because it doesn't ruffle any feathers.

I heard somewhere at some point that for organisational values to be useful, they need to provide guidance in making decisions. They need to be trade-offs. They need to reject something in favour of something else.

So, rephrasing your bullshit bingo:

"We are now pursuing a cultural shift: we will value good attitudes and difference of opinion over efficiency. We will start to ignore some of our personal goals and instead emphasise the goals we have in common."

This is actionable. It can be used to choose a path to proceed when efficiency is pitted against diversity. It actually says something.

And yeah, it's going to suck if you don't agree. Better that than meaningless drivel.
Millions of people have access to the kind of resources (or much more) a Jeff Bezos or Mark Zuckerberg had growing up, but very few have built successful companies. The article mentions that Warren Buffett's father was a congressman, which is true, but there are literally tens of thousands of children of federal representatives. None of them have done what Buffett has done.

I don't know why so many feel the need to reduce the effort, skill, and ingenuity of these founders and builders as if them building a Berkshire, Amazon, or Tesla was a given.

Postgres runs in a 1 GB VM all by itself with some optimizations to get the most that limited hardware

All other services are in a second 1 GB VM.

You can see a list of those services here https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/docker/dock...

The memory use per process can differs by use-case, so its important to leave a bit of headroom. For example, PostgREST's memory consumption can grow if the amount of data being returned from its queries is large.

By the time you include:

- supabase studio

- kong

- auth

- storage

- meta

if they each take only 100MB, its pretty snug on a 1 GB VM!
This happens. Mostly buying fresh blood from overseas in my (European) experience. Like Maine coons from Russia, bull terriers from Australia … It’s more rare in the same country (where they could just buy sperm). Sometimes they just use a fellow breeders (and friend I suppose) male for a few litters.
Coding with an AI Copilot: what is it like?
Right. How long before we consider as "impaired":

- Hasn't had their covid-19 vaccination/booster?

- Immigration visa expired?

Yeah, it's a slippery slope argument. But the track record of the government taking advantage of such openings is bad.
I read that as "frozen foods that are high in fat and salt".
It's an exponential decay, so full-life is not really a coherent concept. Detectable (but unnoticeable) levels will persist for quite some time and undetectable levels will persist for a bit after that.
Goddamn, this episode is dark. I should have vetted it more while generating.
> Our team leaked an API key in a Git commit during maintenance and was immediately alerted by GitGuardian. To revert that change and clean up the git history, Pierre decided to switch our repository from public to private until our team fixed it.

I hope they still invalidated that key and got a new one, because I don't think simply git reset and force pushing to overwrite a commit you already pushed to a public repository is sufficient to make sure someone didn't already capture it.
For Missouri's study to be valid, statistically and empirically, you'd have to measure the actual wearing of masks in areas with mandates, and control for other factors. Did the Missouri study measure actual mask use, and control for other factors?
One (redundant and costly) solution might be for building code to require two side-by-side sprinkler systems for garages, one that sprays water and another that sprays chemical fire retardants suitable to fighting battery fires and the like.
The challenge is, how do you teach it?

Like many writers, many coders think their code is readable and are resistant to feedback. They literally do not see the problem.

You can institute all the rules and guidelines you want, but they see it as friction and overhead and only do it because they are forced to.
>How often have you seen an algorithm expressed with such grace that it appears boringly obvious?

There is a perverse quality that I see in mostly junior engineers of not wanting the complicated thing to appear simple. I think it's probably a result of some ego and accomplishment and wanting others to know it was challenging. I'm not sure exactly but I've seen it a lot.
