To be clear, that attack (also the The DAO event that caused the ethereum fork) was a hack. It was a bug in the contract that got exploited. And that's a risk too.

But even if a DAO does everything right, technically, they're still subject to the problem of having to trust entities in the real world (e.g. "whoever on the Blender foundation gave them the address to pay") to behave the way they promise (e.g. "actually hand them an address under the control of the Blender Foundation"). It's trivially easy in this world to just cheat.

And in the real world, with real people on both sides of the transaction, that's addressed in the courts. And it works, and fraud as a proportion of our economy is quite small. But that protection doesn't extend to anonymous smart contracts.
This was SUPER interesting to see! I actually (for once) signed up for their next newsletter/scan. It asked me what they should scan next and I suggested cochlear implant processors. It'd be pretty cool to see!

The tech on those processors are pretty insane - and remember, Apple did partner up with Cochlear for the Nucleus 7 I believe for wireless streaming from the processor to an iPhone.
I think it depends much of expectations. It actually exceeded my expectations. I recently built a small and useless program in solidity and deployed it within few hours. It's definitely better than what we had available years ago (i.e. on bitcoin platform) and I see a future for it. I think it has chances to survive in this age of censorship and surveillance.

Something that really surprised me was the signing/metamask integration(a kind of webauthn). I would definitely use that to login into various websites instead of the invasive facebook/google login plugins we see all over the web. There is even something akin to oauth2 but without the requirement to have "developer keys".
yes, of which you expect more when you enter an employee-employer relationship than when you are independent
The conservative Toyota you're describing is the Toyota that exists today, not the one that developed the Toyota Production System in the first place. Maybe they weren't bleeding edge but their engines had fuel injection, variable valve timing, and were computer controlled. Meanwhile the American automakers' idea of "futuristic" was putting LCD screens in the dash and making the cars talk when you left the door open. Through the 1980s and 1990s Toyota was putting out cars like the original LS 400 which embarrassed the German luxury automakers, the supercharged MR2, the turbocharged Supra, and high revving Celica, all while making cheap but great econoboxes. Its really in the 2000s where Toyota switches to an "only conservative cars" business model when the Toyota developed sports cars disappear, engines start staying mostly the same, and generations get longer.
Working for free devalues the work of others and give them an excuse to not even offer pay next time.
If you set it up on Ethereum, then yes, it probably will be too expensive in your case. However, there are several other chains where you could set up a DAO with close to zero gas fees. For example Polygon or Fantom, among others. The major hurdle atm is "bridging" assets onto these newer chains. Most exchanges currently only support the big players, but as these grow and mature, adoption and UX/DX should improve as well.
That's pretty funny, that's basically identical to how standard corporations work, except instead of "signatories" you have "corporate officers" and instead of "off chain voting" you have (very thoroughly-regulated!) "shareholder proxy statements".

Yeah same with me in university. They eventually started rate-limiting each SSH connection to ~50kB/sec, so I ran a bunch of separate SSH connections, made them as upstreams on a tinyproxy - and then used proxychains to force apps to use that tinyproxy tunnel (a lot of apps back then didn't allow you to configure a proxy).

> The real problem is that Scrum is not agile at all: Scrum is a fat "process" that enforces "following a plan" (regular, rigid meeting structure), "creating comprehensive documentation" (user stories, specs, mocks, task board) and "contract negotiation" (estimation meetings, planning poker). In that way, it's the exact opposite of the original agile Manifesto:

None of those things are Scrum.

Scrum talks about defining bits of work to do on your product, but doesn’t mention User Stories. (But really, what’s the beef with User Stories? They’re short descriptions of what you hope to achieve! You gotta make some kind of plan sometime or you have no cohesion. If you don’t like the formality of User Stories, drop ‘em).

The meeting structures are not defined by Scrum. The intent and topics are defined, but the structure (apart from vague suggestions for rhythm and timing). They only exist on a cadence so you can predict some parts of the system (like ensuring the client turns up to see the work done). You can change most of the details.

Scrum doesn’t define any planning or estimation practice, it simply recommends you use some system so that the right people are in sync. You have to know if part A takes an order of magnitude longer to make than part B, so that they can hooked up properly.

Specs? Mocks? Task board? None of that is Scrum.

Scrum has two lists: the backlog, and the sprint backlog. The former grows as you learn what to make; the latter comes into being at the start of a sprint and disappears at the end. If you must put it in swim-lanes, that’s your loss. Don’t blame Scrum.
Growing up with a specific, media influenced vision of VR(Ghost in the shell, .hack, sword art online) where lots of of the current technical challenges to create something truly immersive are solved, I really want VR to succeed. I got to try the original Oculus Rift and later Quest and I would argue that visually we are maybe 5 or so years away from a pretty decent experience (like 4k by 4k per eye with decent latency, 120hz+, no screen door and maybe even proper foveated rendering). Sound-wise I don't even think there is much missing. Form-factor/comfort-wise
I also believe that we are not far off. And experiences which make use of "just" that are ok or fun even.

IMHO however, movement and tactile feedback are still lacking so far behind that I don't even know if they can be solved in a non-invasive, average user friendly manner. I mean sure, you can strap yourself to a treadmill contraption and use controllers or gloves to track your hands and maybe even wear some suit which vibrates here and there. But you won't feel real collisions, let alone texture, realistic force and acceleration.
And somehow when I tried VR I felt like this was missing so much that it limits my enjoyment big time.
>Rent goes up because of supply and demand.

And if people now earn more money they can pay more money to rent a house they want. This would force the people that are already renting there to also pay more, which they can afford because they now earn more money too.

It seems feasible to me that landlords could eat up most of that wage increase.

I am a traffic engineer that deals with crash reports quite often. One thing we include at the beginning of every crash analysis we do is a disclaimer that the contents of the crash report are subjective and solely the work of the responding officer. This means that junction/non-junction or crossing/non-crossing can vary a lot. The data are very messy with inaccuracies in location and direction of travel. (Side note, it is super frustrating when the road winds a lot and the eastbound direction is traveling westerly, for example.) The data that are reported to FHWA and NHTSA are even more generalized that those kept by the individual states.
Additionally, pedestrian and bicyclist crashes tend to be underreported unless there is a severe injury. This can greatly skew the data to look more rosey than reality.

I don't want to blame the victims, but I'll bet the number would be lower if it weren't for all the people who go ninja at night - dark clothing, and not a stitch of anything reflective.

I am not too familiar with this part of the wayland protocol, but I do think that the scale is available to a given window and it can make use of that — and my experience is that it does so with qt and gtk apps. Maybe you are using xwayland applications? Because in that case wayland has to fallback to rendering it at some integer multiply and scaling it down.

My previous comment was more on the lack of non-linearly scaling fonts used on e.g. windows that will stick to the pixel grid at all price (so half the requested size will likely be much larger than expected). I think it is called ClearType.

I do prefer PostgreSQL if I have a choice, but from the practicality standpoint that many people are hitting on, I'm okay with various design decisions (i.e. take a look at some of the flags for MySQL's `sql-mode` option over the years) being phased out via the normal (warn -> deprecate -> throw error -> remove) lifecycle that things like this often go through in software. Once a technology gets wide adoption, no matter how "flawed" or not earlier versions were, you start to prioritize stability and reliability over "correctness" at some point. This leads to the understandably practical approach to many bugs in many enterprise systems where the team supporting a tech stack learns to work around the rough edges, and might even depend on certain "weird" functionality because it's simply more practical in both the short and long term than not doing it.

None of the above means that I don't see MySQL as flawed in some ways. I'm in a group of developers that I suspect make up a sizable portion of the MySQL community who didn't choose MySQL, but must support it, if for no other reason than because we see ourselves as professionals, and that's what professional do: make the employer's application work reliably.

For applications that have already survived past the point of finding product/market fit, a wholesale conversion of DBMS is rarely worth it, and conversions of this type are costly/risky even if it is worth it. I do understand many of the benefits (real and theoretical) of PostgreSQL, and if I'm around at the moment when a project's DBMS is being selected I'm going to recommend _not_ MySQL, but at some level I'm also paid to make the application that my employer is running on top of their DBMS work reliably ... and the fact is even among people who get PostgreSQL - who prefer it, would choose it if they could - many of us are also pragmatic enough not to pull the rug out from under a running application for "reasons".
You have to separate the road from the stroad. Roads in Europe might be up to 60-70 kph even in a city center, but they also have calming intersections with roundabouts and to get on an off regularly or even ramps. Streets tend to be 30-40 kph depending on the place with lots of calming.

Those can work on areas with lower speed traffic, but they can be very dangerous on wide roads with faster vehicle traffic. Poorly designed refuge islands give pedestrians very little protection if a vehicle looses control at an intersection. Even if the pedestrian is paying attention, the only escape option is likely straight into traffic.
The BBC did a short series called "Victorian Pharmacy" where they attempted to use Victorian-era cures on modern people. Except they couldn't even try most of them because they were too dangerous - opium, arsenic, mercury, cocaine, etc. And the things they could try (excepting Lea & Perrins sauce) were basically torture devices like the Malvern Water Cure[2].

I worked on a product that used an in ear microphone to adjust the model used in noise cancellation on the fly. In a control theory sense, the system varies a lot so your poles can move around and need a different controller, even on the same head depending on fit. The product produced white noise to tune the model which greatly improved the noise cancellation accuracy.

It’s also not just the ear canals but the rest of your skull that effects how you hear. There are apps that use machine learning to fit a model/eq to the shape of your head from a photo. I would think that actually measuring in the ear would give a more accurate representation of this.

This is essentially the same problem seen with various antivirus software implementations: uBlock helps prevent malicious ads from running, but (by nature) has access to run on just about any site and itself has to handle potentially malicious code. So it's a tempting target for attack, just like AV software is a tempting target for attack.
This is a misunderstanding. Many DAOs have off-chain legal entities attached.

Exactly. Sure you can set up and accept money quite easily using any number of methods. The problem then comes in of how you are legally classified with each governmental jurisdiction that each donation happens to fall under, and now you're in a mountain of registrations, reports, audits, licenses, and other red tape.
> Retry logic is hidden for locks while in your face for CAS.

It's hidden in both cases (usually CAS instructions are hidden behind an `update` interface as in Java's Atomic* family rather than directly used in the same way that generally a lock is an interface for a TAS instruction/spin lock + upgrading to wait queue).

> For CAS if you need to CAS two dependent things you... I don't know it depends.

You use nested atomic references. Just like locks it's not a great way of doing things, and an analogous problem to ordering locks rears its head (by virtue of nesting you cannot mess up ordering in the strict sense, but you can accidentally "cross the boundaries" of two atomics in an update that goes against the nesting order), but it's doable in the same way as locks.

The usual CAS-like but better approach is STM (which is where immutability really shines).

I'm still not seeing how CAS is any harder than locks.
Right, of course
What comes to mind is speed up your program of work, ie spend your money as quickly as you responsibly can (easy to say I know, but the point is that speed and scaling should be a bigger part of your agenda if inflation is a concern). Anecdotally I feel like I have seen companies doing fundraising rounds very close together recently, inflation may be a reason. Investors will have the same concern and look for places that can deploy their cash fast.

Interestingly, I've talked to a few startup founders recently who were feeling good about having lots of money in the bank and not needing to fundraise for a while. This is probably still a common mentality, and may be more prudent. But if you can responsibly spend asap, you will get more bang for your buck

> When companies are allowed to become large enough that they have a significant effect on the ability for alternatives to compete in the marketplace, they assume an obligation to provide access to that marketplace to everyone.

I would disagree. "Past performance is no guarantee of future results." There is no obligation to keep doing things the same way they've "always" been done. Every interaction is decided on a case-by-case basis. One does not forfeit freedom of (dis)association through mere inertia; one retains the right to make exceptions or to change one's mind.

> Additionally, when you form a business relationship, even when that relationship consists of exchanging your product for their data, there is am entirely reasonable expectation that the relationship won't be severed without cause.

I might be willing to buy that, to a point. The usual rule is that the expectations need to have a reasonable basis in the contract and any liability is limited to the direct impact of having those reasonable expectations disappointed. However, even paid services routinely disappear on short notice, for various reasons. Assuming that a paid service will be maintained well after the current subscription term elapses is not reasonable. Neither is assuming long-term access to a free service.

> … it is to the benefit of a nation to enable those expectations where possible.

Then "the nation" can very well lead the way by offering its own services (on a voluntary, non-tax-supported basis, naturally) and not by, in effect, nationalizing a private service by imposing its own terms.
