But you can't have freedom of speech with unchecked capitalism either as extreme wealth individuals/companies then can easily manipulate/undermine it.

This is especially true for countries without a constitutional right for free speech or such which made the mistake to only protect free speech from the government but not extremely powerful non-government entities.

Furthermore putting checks on capitalism doesn't mean the government is not directly controlling the money (I mean it's not the same as e.g. communist style planed economy).

To make thinks worse as long as a government still has any power they still can undermine freedom of speech even in mostly unchecked capitalism as they can subtle motivate the extremely money-rich entities such a system will produce to use there money to undermine free speech. Now some would bring here the argument that the markets self regulation will fix that, but I think it should be obvious this doesn't really work for many various reasons (like e.g. DRM, or just the simple fact that everything is extremely complex where it's close to impossible for a consumer to e.g. reliable not buy a direct or indirect nestle owned, to just name some examples.).
Not exactly. US Jelly is more like UK Jelly (US Jello), but less viscous, yet spread like jam.

I would call US Jelly "fruit flavoured", with a high water content, no fruit solids, and occasionally even artificial fruit flavours; whereas jam is typically around 2/3 real fruit (before boiling), 1/3 sugar, with no added water, so has a denser and more "lumpy" texture.

Jelly also often comes in flavours not associated with Jam, like grape for example. (See also KoolAid, which is the US equivalent of Squash, but powdered, and also "watery" when made to manufactures instructions).
I’ve been reading this recently to get up to speed with Notcurses, it’s fantastic. Funny, engaging, and a surprisingly good general overview of how terminals work.

One thing to note: it was written for an older version of Notcurses. So some of the details aren’t 100% up to date, but it covers the fundamentals.
Ah, I missed that you have a liquid cooled model. Thanks!
Just another day for Bitcoin exchanges. The sad thing is the technology exists for fully decentralized exchanges (and has for a while.) There are actually multiple 'smart contracts' that allow money to move directly between peers without the need for centralized deposits. E.g:

- micropayment channels -- send money a piece at a time

- cross chain contracts -- bind simultaneous release of funds to a shared secret

- lightning channels -- cross-blockchain stateful commitments

- reputation -- not great but can still work

The order book is another part that can be decentralized. It's a little harder to do this due to the need for high speed communication but I believe its possible. Newer blockchains like Solana have different consensus algorithms that allow for a 'global clock' to be created with minimal bottlenecks. It wouldn't be as fast as everything sitting on a server but its performance would be adequate for traders, IMO.

Bonus section: dark pools could be created with SGX or MPC protocols. There are some popular decentralized exchanges at the moment. But IMO they will need more features that traders are familiar with to be competitive (there's more than just currency pairs and limit orders tbh.)

This is definitely the institutional culture within the US Army. Technical work is seen as being beneath an officer. I'm an officer in a specialized IT career field (BA and MS in CS, starting a PhD program next year) and we constantly struggle against this culture. The Army wants us to have graduate degrees in engineering or scientific disciplines so that we can almost exclusively fill management positions overseeing enlisted troops, warrant officers, contractors, and low-level federal civilians with high school diplomas doing the technical work.

Those of us who get hands-on to be in touch with reality, add value, and sharpen our skillset do so at risk to our careers. We are only rewarded for what we do as leaders, especially expanding our scope of responsibility (mission, people, budget, etc.).

When I was an officer in the aviation branch, it was the same problem. The rewards for briefing PowerPoint slides were greater than the rewards for competently flying helicopters.
There was PBS Frontline episode about a man who after being diagnosed with ALS traveled to Switzerland to die. They follow him until the very end.

Very powerful episode, I still remember it vividly.

You've just described how to diagnose and repair an Atari 2600 joystick from the early 80's.
Hmm curious to hear more about this, do you have any examples?

I suspect I’m generally aligned with you on the topic, but I agree that “choosing suicide for grandma to preserve a family inheritance” is perfectly valid if grandma is choosing it, but acknowledge that it’s terribly problematic if the kids or grandkids are behind it. Being in the middle part of my life, I’ve seen the pressures that arise here, the concerns over finances and quality of life, and the diminishment of mental capacity of many elderly folks.

I had a close family member express repeatedly and regularly that “they were done” and “are looking forward to finally dying”. That’s what makes me strongly support individual choice here, but I’m not blind to the possibility of abuse here (and near certainty that it will happen in some cases).
More importantly....should the layer of PB be thin like Marmite, or should it be 1/4" thick? (I am definitely in the thick layer camp)
She really got lucky here. Imagine how much worse it would be if she went for a tiddlywink test and found covid.
Many universities (like MIT) have courses on Supply Chain Management, and logistics is a subset of that.

Or you can join the military, it looks like they might have some educational program.
This is a bit off topic, but this is the first time I've actually used sourcehut and I've got to say I love it. Nearly instant account creation and sometimes I don't notice a page is already loaded because I blinked when I clicked.

“Minecraft Java Edition” springs to mind :P

Otherwise I mostly only see this when it’s “for developers by developers”
They cost $30 and still not support 240W. It would be an easier advice to consumer if they were $19.
> cloudflare's egress pricing online AT ALL.

Cloudflare charges $0 for egress for the main service as long as it's for serving a website (eg. serving binaries or random other files isn't allowed if it's disproportionate to regular website visitors). for anything else, the pricing pages are usually close by - The Workers[0] site has pricing at the bottom, and R2 will also have $0 in egress pricing[1].

Yes, that was the main difference between a "workstation" and a PC.
Left unstated in the article is that COVID infection is linked to the ACE2 receptor, which is activated at puberty.

Kids under 14 can get COVID, but it is extremely rare that they get a serious case or pass it on to adults.
Which is why public-private partnerships are a thing. This would end up essentially contracting one or more logistics companies to do the fulfillment for the public facing government service.
That is an extremely strange and suspicious link that I would immediately class as a phishing attempt if it had not been posted by an established HN account. Hopefully just an honest mistake.

The actual URL for the title service is https://monitor.firefox.com/ - maybe change it?
Dude the post office would squander that money. I have no idea why people think these public entities can execute like Amazon does. Its the same with SpaceX and NASA, very clear at this point that NASA was a huge waste of money and completely incompetent.
> What would be awesome is if instead of this we gave a fuck ton of money to the post office and tried to solve this problem for everyone and also eroded amazon's competitive advantage.

Why hasn't this happened already? What makes you think it would actually happen?
Portmanteau's are absobloddylutely fun. Though a bit cruel upon those learning the language.
I’m sorry that you’re incapable of understanding the text you just pasted. It confirms everything I’ve said.

> Apple preview is not sufficient in itself and needs additional evidence to support the reliability of it.

The situation is not meaningfully different than with a wet signature on paper.

It doesn’t matter if you sign the contract with a pen or using the preview tool, in the Netherlands you are equally bound by both. If you dispute the authenticity of the signature, the situation will not be any different between the two.

And bro, work on your attitude.
This guys butt hurt because he’s a bank retail employee with no ability to see where the world is heading next. You’re an idiot!
Ok another one. In the UK we have a Financial services ombudsman https://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/ which can mediate in any dispute a customer has with a bank.

So if a bank takes funds or won't release funds, there's a route you can use to get that back. One look at the sub-reddits for most crypto exchanges will show quite a few posts from people who can't get withdrawals and the exchanges are just stonewalling them.
I was using quotes to indicate a sentence that I was referring to[1] as an example of a particular position, not to attempt to indicate that you'd said those exact words. I apologize that that was unclear - and I'm particularly sensitive to being misquoted, so I also apologize for giving the impression that that was what I'd done.

That said, I still don't see the functional distinction between the example position I described, and your statement. Are you saying that there is an effective difference between those two, or simply calling out (correctly) that what I wrote was not a direct quotation of what you wrote? What is a situation that would be described by one but not by the other?

I guess most people use exchanges for the possibility to interface with non-crypto currencies, right? I don't think you can set up a dollars-Bitcoin exchange without centralized exchanges.
A service to make big (1mx2m or bigger) dense (1cm pitch) mazes. It would generate them pseudorandomly from seed, so you could re-order the same one if you wished and there would be also small a4 cheat sheet with path marked. You could order customized ones which from afar would have some image visible. I've even made one in local print shop, but just didn't even have time to test it with other people before I had too much work at other jobs.

The use of the cliche "Sucide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" demonstrates binary thinking, as though there is only one temporary problem and no compounding factors.

It's also a pretty shitty thing to say. It's designed to make people who may want to die feel worse about themselves by calling their feelings merely "temporary".
Wouldn’t the desire to die be proof that the desire to live is not axiomatic?
ACH is reversible for 30 days IIRC, though technically forever through court orders. Checks are essentially giving everyday people ACH access.

You’re right and I’ve said it before, the only place crypto is going is going to be boring and indistinguishable besides minor details from traditional services.
It is Non-Desktop Web Browser interfaces that are the problem.

Mobile Site, Mobile Apps, Alexa, etc make it very hard to see who the vendor it, I do not have this problem on the Traditional Full Size Browser Amazon.com site
Mods combining posts and choosing the wrong winner sounds most plausible. Just email them and they'll make the correction because they do a dang good job.
Some governments actually govern decently well, certainly way better than the US. I assume you haven't actually read much of said documented history.
It would have been better to rot13 that.
Unless the Post office has some strong incentive to compete, such as a private company, there’s no reason to believe the Post office would be even half as effective as Amazon.

Amazons incentive, whether you agree with it or not, is to grow their company and show value to stakeholders. It’s quantitative numbers. They can certainly lie, but at the end of the day the market will punish them.

The USPS is driven by what incentives? Politics? Future pension obligations?

In reality, government ends up being a bloated mess, waste of tax payer dollar. Don’t believe me?

How many campaigns have we seen just in our own lifetimes of candidates promising “change”, “making America great”, fixing healthcare, infrastructure, reforming education. One of the two parties does win every election. Fundamentally, what has changed?

Regulating private companies might be the answer. But government has proven itself to NOT be the answer.
Thanks for sharing this. I've subscribed to the newsletter
in UK politics it's called "sleaze" but that's a fair bit better than "lobbyism" in the US.
I don’t know how my bank implements their backend. Based on the parts I can see that I mentioned, I’m not very impressed with their interpretation of best practices.

That’s a good question. I don’t know how often banks get robbed of cash due to digital intrusions. I have gotten credit card info stolen before and that happens with many people, so maybe errors in the banking system more commonly take the form of lots of small fraud rather than a few big events.
It cannot be done so easily.

Your body has a thousand instincts inside trying to preserve itself.

Many of these people who try asphyxiating themselves end up ripping the bag even after they go unconscious. And if you fail, you risk long-term brain damage.

Trying to kill yourself is like trying to kick a the corner of a concrete wall with your shin as hard as possible. You have to override a lot of self-preservation instincts. It's not like you suddenly become immune to pain, loss, and fear.

Well you find DeFi laughable. Ok. You know what was called laughable in the nineties? Ordering Pizza over the Internet. It didn’t go over night but today almost everybody is ordering pizza over the internet. Maybe Defi will take over finance in 20 years from now. Maybe it won’t. But I would be careful to dismiss any young and promising technology w/o throughly understanding it.
The comments defending crypto seem to all anchor on the argument on what crypto "can" be.
Anything "can" be anything. Maybe it is what it is and it has to be something totally different to be different.
Edit: vertical obviously.
True but eink pixels are not delineated by a grid and aren't exactly square so the effect presents itself as a kind of natural anti aliasing. I haven't seen this display but I think it will look similar to the iPad in question.

Also you'll probably view it at a bit higher distance than a 6" Kindle meant for reading only. Because this one is meant to write on.
The question is whether any of the cryptocurrency companies are actually able to deliver that. Traditional MLMs always claimed to be doing something noble like being healthier or democratizing real-estate, too, and the cryptocurrency pitches notably revolve around people selling things which they know cannot solve the stated problem but promise that they’ll figure out how to built a viable system after you buy in and make them rich first.
Be a robot. And do what robots do - use a plugin to farm out capcha to a 3rd part service. Super cheap like 20c for 1000 or something
That's a great example, thanks! I don't think I've ever done so (usually I'm buying games late-enough that they're being sold as a single bundle), hence why I didn't think of it - but that totally makes sense, thank you!
This is what I gather with some research, though I’m no expert and would appreciate more information if anyone has it.

If Tunisia is “in the region” (depends on the region being discussed), then Tunisia is starting to make the claim that Israel is the only strong democracy in the region false. That being said, Tunisia’s situation isn’t doing much to change the claim that Israel is the most democratic country in the region, and was the only one for many decades.

Lebanon is one of the most democratic countries in the region. It has regular elections - though I can’t tell how free and fair they are. It seems they are but there are accusations of bribes and corruption in Lebanon in general so likely that would spill into elections (see https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/28/magazine/corruption-leban...). Lebanon has relatively diverse political parties, citizens have entrenched rights, general freedom of speech. Anti-government protests seem somewhat allowed (with some accusations of suppression and some violent response).

That being said, it’s not just animosity between Israel and Hezbollah that lead people to considering it less of a democracy or somewhere less than flawed democracy on the spectrum of democracy into something (though that could play a role). It’s presumably also paramilitary organizations like Hezbollah not being subject to civilian rule. Also that not anyone can be president, or prime minister or president of parliament, due to agreements between groups in Lebanon that help with stability.

America cooperates daily with non-democracies. Did anyone claim that America can only cooperate with countries that are democracies? I could imagine someone arguing convincingly that all else being equal, America would prefer close ties and cooperation with democracies (for various reasons). In practice, all else is rarely equal. You don't always get to partner with those who you feel have the same values (real or aspirational), or are generally looked on favorably by the world. There is lots of realpolitik in geopolitics.
Anyone know how they did their own streaming or what provider they used?
That must be traded off against a “prolonged suffering rate of X%” as the overwhelmingly likely alternative.

We chose to euthanize our dog this summer. No matter how obvious her medical condition was, I still questioned whether we did it too early, too late, or just right. (Upon reflection, I think very slightly too late [by days or maybe a week].) I also couldn’t help but compare that experience to that of people. In many ways, I think we treat our family pets with more compassion.
Why doesn’t NASA get any credit for creating and funding the Commercial Cargo and Commercial Crew programs?

SpaceX looks like a very savvy, competent investment made by NASA to me.
Yeah looking at elements.rs, it appears that they have the translation layer I alluded to:

https://github.com/ethereum/fe/blob/bfeffe82b4f8623330c1ebb1...

It's not obvious to me though and I couldn't find documentation for ABI compatibility. For example, does delegatecall to solidity work? That requires that Fe also use the same "binary" layout for storage in which slot index is used to generate the storage hash:

I think it depends a bit on technique and choice of firearm. Some people foolishly put a gun in their mouth and assume it will definitely kill. But it's entirely possible to miss the brainstem and just blow off the side of your face instead. Now you are alive but mangled.

Something like a shotgun is probably a bit harder to screw up.

But personally I'm far too chickenshit to use a firearm. I'd probably try to find someone who'd sell me fentanyl, were I interested in terminating my own existence. At the moment, however, I'm far more likely to suffer an existential crisis and so I've zero desire to answer life's greatest question any sooner than strictly necessary.
I make international payments pretty often and have never been presented with a leaky abstraction, suffered from "censorship" or anything like that. "Permissioned" is simply a consequence of that fact that most countries establish barriers to the free movement of people, goods and capitals in and out of their territory. You're not going to solve that with technology, because it's not a technological problem. It's not even clear that it's a problem.
I wish I had realized that my grades in college basically didn’t matter as long as I passed. I crucified myself trying to get straight As, and I don’t think it mattered much at all. Relatedly, I would have gone to a cheaper and less stressful college where I could have done well with less effort (a state school rather than private). I gather from the other responses here that this is a common sentiment.
I specifically called out Above & Beyond because it isn't a "kitchen sink" pack thrown together over a weekend with a dozen different game crashing interactions between mods, or 4 ways to create dupe item cycle. Or a hell inducing grindfest like the Gregtech focused packs are.

It's a pack with one goal (build rocket, goto moon), that puts you in the SANDBOX that is the core of minecraft and says, "here are the tools, here's a bit of guidance on what you should automate to progress, but figure it out from tools at hand and have fun in your own way".

The mods are from different authors, but all the recipes have been tweaked and tuned to integrate with each other and provide a cohesive progression curve. Even the textures have been tweaked to make the pack visually cohesive.
I just missed the obvious context -- finite time writing <<what>> exactly. The exceptions can be written in finite time using integers and a specific set of operations, whereas the question I posed looked at decimal representations.
Yes very interesting. Gold was originally formed within supernovae, which is a sure sign that our planet is formed from molecules that have been through at least one or two supernovae already. Another fund gold fact, the reason gold appears in "veins" is that it's actually big blobs, but over time water runs through the blob, dragging along little bits of dust with it down the same channel. Those little bits of dust build up and become veins of gold.
