My wife and I work on software projects. They become fairly advanced because she codes and I PM / test. Every time she implements a new feature or fixes a bug, I'm happy because the bus is moving forward, and she's happy because she's made me happy. I also update her on happy user stories, and make it obvious they make me happy because once again, it makes her happy. Anyway, that's just one way. I'm sure there's others.

(ETA I'm a woman, I realized this could read badly otherwise :)

Another time, I wrote a novel, and she read each chapter when I was done. I realized that if I didn't finish the novel, I would leave her hanging, and I didn't want to do that, so I finished it, even when I got 'mired in the middle'.

I guess my point is, try to involve someone you care about to hold you accountable, make a commitment to them to finish it.
China is a whole different league to fight against than some backwater former colony and current dictatorship that struggles to feed its army.

It's no big deal to bomb someone like Ghaddafi's Libya to hell and back... China will fuck over your entire economy if you dare to establish relations with Taiwan, such as Lithuania currently experiences.

Yup, while societies do have momentous occasions of revolution, they are rather rare. It's more so people of a generation dying off allowing newer blood to come in. I have no doubt that societies would eventually stagnate if such anti-aging mechanisms become widely available enough. And they will only be available to the rich and in-power at first, mind you.

If it actually does do that, then spell out why that's the case (e.g. what's the penalty for hiring someone for a salary outside the posted range)?

The OP makes it sound like this is only to address certain information asymmetries in salary negotiation:

> Currently, New York City employers are allowed to withhold pay information until the end of the hiring process.

> Advocates of the bill argue that this forces applications into unequal negotiations throughout the hiring process without the critical piece of knowledge around salary.

> “Lack of salary transparency is discriminatory and anti-worker,” said Rosenthal. “Every New Yorker should have the right to determine whether they will be able to support themselves and their family when they apply for a job. It is time to level the playing field, and restore some dignity to New Yorkers seeking employment.”

> ...Job postings without salary range information can be reported to the city’s Commission on Human Rights.

Based on the article, I see no reason why someone would be prevented from consenting to pay below the position's current minimum, so long as they have full knowledge that is what they are in fact doing.
Correct. I think my high water mark was about 30 calls in one day. I would receive a call while messing with another, so I would sometimes conference them together for hilarity to ensue.
Most people don't retire with any meaningful amount of savings. Presuming the government doesn't give you social security benefits if you're actually able bodied, you would just keep working and stay poor. The larger concern is compounding wealth inequality by the mega rich who never die and just continue to accumulate ownership of everything. And of course immortal dictators.

Check out Freenet

They drop stuff that has the least amount of accessing, so if you want to keep something online you have to pay someone to keep accessing it. Makes sense, but I'd argue that it should be a market, meaning the price should go up as more people try to access stuff, but anyone can start to seed popular content and collect revenues also for hosting it (this is better than wasting electricity on accessing stuff or doing proof of work).

But isn't FileCoin exactly that for IPFS?

MaidSAFE goes a step further and has nodes rebalance autonomously and earn the most safecoin, as something gets more popular it gets seeded more.

>Now, you can certainly argue that the old system was broken by insecurity and thereby had to die. But that just means the entire concept of onion services was some temporary art project

An insecure Tor is less than worthless.

Tor is not trying to be a community or be the next geocities. It is an evolving security and privacy project, adapting to the landscape as it needs to, in an effort to anonymize and protect it's users.

>a platform on which people could build the kind of ecosystem we have on the "normal" world wide web

This was never the goal of Tor, and may be the source of your frustrations. Tor has one fundamental mission: deploying free and open source anonymity and privacy technologies.

It is a shame that links will be broken, and it sucks that you feel like something you built up is being torn down. But arguing that it should be kept insecure because of the friends you've made along the way is exactly the opposite of Tor's mission statement.

I hope this reaches mass internet consciousness, and people start consolidating their time and effort into projects that won't make them 1000x, but will bring society more efficiency and durability, instead of wasting times memeing shit coins in and out of existence.

Also, data like this gives educators a good opportunity to discuss the importance of trading volume and float. I keep having a hard time getting this concept into people's heads, the price of the stock doesn't matter at all if the float and volume are tiny.

Their entire point about defi not being decentralized is almost entirely false.

Uniswap the company is entirely disconnected from the uniswap router which is what defi really is. The uniswap router is what completes transactions on the blockchain. Not the uniswap website. The uniswap website simply provides a front end for interacting with the uniswap protocol.

You can easily, like less than 100 lines of code, write your own implementation of the uniswap swap functionality. This is why it truly is decentralized. Uniswap the company has no way of preventing you from doing that in their v1, v2, or v3 router.

Further they themselves are not running the router. Anyone who is running an eth node, or miner is running the router. So yes, uniswap has a financial interest in making a commercially successful product. But that product is uniswap.org/app

It is not the smart contract. The smart contract is what makes it decentralized.

Their only argument besides the financial interests of the companies who created the first defi products is claiming that blockchain rewards lead to concentration. Which is the same argument that has been made since bitcoin was first launched, but every single day the likelyhood of any sort of attack related to concentration becomes less likely. As more people start their own mining operations and start hosting their own node.

If someone wanted to centralize the chain they missed their opportunity. Because it is simply not feasible for it to occur at this point.

Like usual, old school economists desire to control crypto markets. But they know they aren't able to and won't ever be able to so they write ill informed articles filled with factually incorrect claims in order to misled policy makers to implement laws to attempt to regulate the industry. Which will also fail.
Most people aren’t pilots, most people have never flown an aircraft, most people have no idea how actual autopilot works. I bet most people think that autopilot is something you turn on while in air and makes the airplane fly on course without further inputs from the pilot. I bet for most people autopilot means computer does driving.

Your imagination has veered into the entirely wrong direction.

If such a thing were legal, human test subjects would be the lowest classes, who would accept a pittance to support their family, or worse, who would sell their children for drug testing to score another hit. The vast majority of early drug trials cause extreme harm, so in essence any such contract would be a game of Russian roulette, except bullets to the head are a quick death. The extremely powerful incentive for companies would be to misrepresentat the risks and pay a pittance for the earliest trials, since these are the least likely to lead to profitable new medications.

Not to mention, if we were to replace mouse models with human subjects, the cost to develop new drugs would skyrocket, as even the least pittance afforded to some slave laborer in the this world would be more expensive than a mouse.

33 Thomas Street (formerly the AT&T Long Lines Building) is a 550-foot-tall (170 m) windowless skyscraper in Tribeca, Lower Manhattan, New York City. It stands on the east side of Church Street, between Thomas Street and Worth Street. The building is an example of the Brutalist architectural style. It is a telephone exchange or wire center building which contained three major 4ESS switches used for interexchange (long distance) telephony, as well as a number of other switches used for competitive local exchange carrier services. However, it is not used for incumbent local exchange carrier services, and is not a central office. The CLLI code for this facility is NYCMNYBW. The building has also been described as the likely location of a National Security Agency (NSA) mass surveillance hub codenamed TITANPOINTE.

>India has announced $10 billion package for semiconductor/display, which is lot of money. There will definitely companies investing, big or small.

Unless India only wants to attract low end, mature node Foundry capacity. $10B is absolutely peanuts for anything that is mainstream or leading edge. Especially for India when they have very little infrastructure and Foundry Ecosystem.

And this is something I notice with India. They dont seems to have a long term strategic plan with anything. It would be much better if it was $50B over 10 years.
It has been tried. There are still ongoing trials. The evidence so far points to ivermectin being beneficial for people with parasites suppressing their immune systems. Studies in areas without common parasitic infections tend to show no effect.

Basically we have better treatments both in-hospital (remdesivir), and out (monoclonal antibodies, new Pfizer pill soon). Nevermind prevention of serious symptoms with vaccine is our best tool.
The cost of at-home tests (and availability issues; they're pretty much universally sold out here at the moment) in the US means basically no one here would dream of testing "every day when you want to go out" as is possible in, say, the UK.

> This was probably career ending at your company, I expect you have been added to a layoff shortlist somewhere for the next round of downsizing.

O man! I believe OP has a lot of insight into corporate dynamics. It exactly happened to a friend of mine. Those corporate seasonal managers does not like to be questioned or give any input. A friend of mine did something similar, and guess what - he was laid off after few weeks; very shortly after starting at a mega corp $
The issue is that the guy who runs the company and controls everything doesn't know what he doesn't know. He made the uninformed decision years ago to go all-in on camera technology because he thought that he would be able to throw a bunch of money and engineers at the problem, and solve Full Self Driving in essentially 5 years. That was more than 5 years ago and the technology seems to have plateaued at a place where it runs frequently into parked or stationary objects.

They have since taken untold sums of cash from people (millions? tens of millions?) who they promised would get access to "Full Self Driving" with the hardware on board. Now they're in the situation where they cannot admit that the problem requires more hardware. The hardware is a fixed property here, a design requirement; they have to achieve actual full self driving with the hardware in place, or they're going to face refunds and lawsuits.

So now it's a delay game. I think it's clear now that short of AGI, Tesla will never get to "full" self driving with the sensor suit they have. Nonetheless they can't switch to a new sensor suit because that will admit defeat. Instead, they have to show continual improvement of the current sensor suite, while promising that "Full" self driving is just around the corner so they can continue the charade.
It sounds pretty standard, and it doesn't sound like the OP has put a lot of work into considering why it works the way it does.

Know that annoying executive who likes to come to the development team and ask them for work? That's what the OP is doing. And how he then loudly laments that he will have to follow some process to have his request added to a backlog, before, at some opportune time in the future, it can be considered and possibly scheduled for being implemented? Yup, OP again.

We hate it when process hits us, but you'd hate it even more if there was none.

The idea is more interesting when you think about scrapers. Take any ecommerce website, there are several scrapers that download all pages every hours, it would be more efficient if a provider had a live copy of the website and then serve the requests to the scrapers or could even send webhook.

A website could handle tons of scrappers without having high bandwidth, only the provider will need high bandwidth.

The issue is that scrapers often play with cookies and dynamic websites and such solution wouldn't work on these cases

Cool resource, thank you.
Thanks for the reply.

As many other comments suggest, I think it would be great to provide clear documentation to users that they can:

1. Run the entire app themselves, with their own chain/storage nodes etc - its the only way to really guarantee/prove the software is decentralized.

2. Access your data from both any centralized providers (such as yourself) or a local instance, ideally its so transparent you can literally select a different gateway in the app and keep working all within 5 seconds.

This is the bare minimum I would personally require before adopting a "decentralized" software tool.

Looks like you all are taking an incremental approach and not quite there, its a tough problem to solve but I wish you luck!
No worries. Solana is so decentralized, they will be easily able to revert the steal transactions.

I think the interesting question is for what alternative purpose you could use that water for in Texas or Arizona. While processing a wafer might require quite a bit of water, it is also the case that the economic value of that finished wafer is very substantial. How comparable are other industries in the region when it comes to dollars generated per cubic meter of water consumed?
Hahaha, hilarious indeed!
There are examples where using an Oxford comma makes a sentence ambiguous and there are examples where not using an Oxford comma makes a sentence ambiguous.

In all the examples I've seen where using an Oxford comma makes a sentence ambiguous that sentence contains an appositive phrase that is set off with commas and that is what creates the ambiguity.

Commas are the most common way to set off an appositive phrase, but it is generally considered acceptable to use em dashes or parenthesis instead. Switch to using one of those instead of commas for your appositives, always use the Oxford comma, and I think that clears up all the ambiguous cases.

So many problems here.

They admit that they don't like coding as a data analyst, and they haven't worked on their resume. If they can't muster enthusiasm for the basics no wonder they aren't interviewing well.

It would be easy to reach out to friends, their University or even publically online for help in that time.

And they have applied to 1.2 jobs a day for the first two years. That is basically nothing. They should set a goal to apply for 10-30 jobs a day. If you're job hunting, that is your job.

Once I was unemployed for 4 months and in the first two I was applying for a couple of jobs a day and getting nowhere. Ramping it up to 30 worked really well, and this was in 2015 in the DevOps market, in Melbourne Australia. It just takes the tiniest bit of hustle.
I flew to Spain (from elsewhere in the EU) in September, my wife was not vaccinated so had to do all the extra paperwork and antigen tests both ways. We registered online with the Spanish health ministry before flying and were provided with a QR code, you have to say whether you are vaccinated, and if not are told you need to show a private negative test result on arrival.

On the way we were asked if we had a negative test at the airport, we showed it but they didn't look at it. On arrival they just asked to see the QR codes, not the test result.

The actual private antigen test results could very easily be altered with Preview.app. Most that we've done so far have a QR code that goes to a hosted version of the certificate, but nobody has ever scanned it. I wonder what would happen if you change it to a URL that returns a 404 - or even just remove it, one I took recently didn't even have that.

Security theatre for sure. Whenever I've travelled, I've been more worried that I might not have the right paperwork than catching COVID.

100km/h for how many kilometers? How many satellite hand-offs occurred? Packet loss / Jitter? Can this test be run again for a long distance and measure packet loss, jitter, latency? How many TCP resets? They talk about a 30km coverage, but was this a continuous test for that distance and were they doing 100km/h the whole time?

I would prefer people not use Twitter for this. A write-up on a website with graphs or stats would be much easier to infer how the tests were performed. Data from nuttcp or iperf3 + nstat would be useful in addition to number of satellite hand-offs that occurred. nstat can show the number of restransmits, lost packets, some congestion stats, etc...
