How do I get new features added to the roadmap? I’ve been asking for an “eat vegetables” interface without the “offer dessert in exchange” workaround for over a year, no response, yet in the same time frame I’ve seen things like “climb top-heavy bookshelf” and “unfurl entire toilet paper roll” deployed… who is asking for these features??
I've been involved in investment due diligence investigations. You don't just take people's word for that sort of stuff. You literally pry through everything and confirm it for sure.
Grew up outside of DC. Snow absolutely happened then, and it was a standing joke that the Russians were investing in weather control so they could cause an inch of snow to shut down the city.

I still remember Feb 1979, when we got 2 feet of snow overnight and school was closed for a week.

> Here in city (Seattle) most people drive because transit tends to be spotty and slow for most people.

I don't drive and I live in Ballard. Driving has always sucked in Seattle since I can remember from the late 1970s. My dad, who lived in Seattle after coming back from Vietnam said the same thing.

The example was clearly intended to include the motorist in question, being allowed to be on the road. As long as the motorist got to use the road, it wouldn't matter to said motorist how large the capacity of the road was, if they weren't able to clear through it quickly without traffic. It wouldn't matter if the road in question was servicing large amounts of people, it's only visible impact to the motorists time on the road that matters.

Taking a trip is a cost, not a benefit. It's evidence that the cost of the trip is considered worth taking and that there's some advantage being gained, but more trips in and of itself is a terrible metric.
The author does not suggest how to get stuff done, for that reason I think the title is clickbait. The issues the author has with Scrum are relatable, on top of that there is also rituals, someone recently switch teams and they were happy that we had 1 ritual and on average ~2h of meetings a week, compared to 8h of meetings a week on the other team: planning, retro, daily stand up, pre-planning, grooming, scoping, etc.

I’ve never heard of exhaust pipes getting clogged with snow, the gas coming out is hot. I’d be surprised if this has ever happened unintentionally.

If what you mean is that the exhaust can linger too long or be redirected in ways that aren’t ideal then yea.
Transportation is directly related to how much your local cities are doing.

When you order goods from Amazon, that gets delivered to you. It might be a road, sea, rail, or plane, but its transportation. The more of packages ordered / delivered, the more things are happening in the city.

The more jobs being created, the more people will need to transport to-and-from work. The more homes built, the more transportation is needed. Etc. etc.

Its a crude measurement with flaws, but generally speaking, the more transportation that's happening, the bigger and better the city is functioning. People wouldn't travel unless they needed to (travel always sucks: traffic accidents, getting stuck, dealing with others on planes/trains/busses, etc. etc.). But we deal with it because without transit, we couldn't do our daily business.

Be it a meeting for work, going to school, delivering goods or other such need.

-------

Mass transit options, like Rail, get more things done with far less money. But there's a latency issue: rail can be slower for the individual... but its cheaper and more-bandwidth for the city.

This conflicts with individual options like roads: it costs a gross amount of money for an individual to buy a car / use it on the highways (plus the cost of highways themselves: rubber tires wear out faster than steel wheels on trains. Asphalt roads need replacing more often than steel rail lines. Gasoline costs much more than the electricity used to move a train). But the individual latency is such an advantage, that the individual will typically prefer car travel.

Promising tin based perovskite are being developed. This addresses the disposal issue. Also chemical stability is being addressed in many ways, some of which more promising than others. Single crystal perovskites are extremely promising because they lack the defects present in polycrystalline and these defects are usually the origin of chemical instability. Also 2D perovskites are another way to address chemical instability and currently have been steadily increasing in overall efficiency.

> It's questionable that more than one maybe two blockchains will be supported

You don't really need a blockchain unless you need to keep data on a blockchain. To login and identify a user you can simply sign a message. I consider the address as the user "identity". Any blockchain data related to that address is mean to be public (some people register <some-name>.eth on the ENS for example)

It's way more like the driving folks have absolutely ruined transit in almost every single city in the country.

Isn't the NFT selling the premise that the owner of the NFT owns the art being pointed to? Maybe it isn't theft but it does seem to be fraud? Or if the argument is that NFTs don't convey some sort of ownership over the thing it points to, what's even the point of NFTs?
The Persona team approached the company I was working for, asking us to add Persona login alongside our other login options. Mozilla came to us because we had a huge web presence at the time (about the size of Wordpress, let's say). We discussed it internally and ultimately rejected their request. We were going through a re-org and just didn't have anyone to spare. We were also rewriting the component where the login would live, and this would have been out of scope.

Looking back, I now see that not volunteering myself for the challenge was one of the biggest mistakes I've made in my career. It was one of those rare opportunities to make a difference.

I also wonder why nobody has tried it since. It's a simple approach, but you'd need a good security team backed by a trusted organization to make an implementation credible.
For Lost, there was a rumor online around the second or third season that someone had either figured out or leaked the entire remaining planned plot, so they started changing it in random ways just so they could keep claiming no one had figured it out.
There should be more studies on micro-dosing as well. Many of the modern drugs that one can buy from the pharmacy would have serious bad effects if you take 10-20 pills at the same time. Yet, you take take a small dose from a package, and you are OK. i.e. micro-dosing (1/20 => 1/10 of a "regular dose") could give one all the benefits of Psilocybin without any detrimental effects - at all.

p.s. most probably you won't be "converted" into a hippie (as some people are worried about it) if you are micro-dosing.
> Sure, Zion was mentioned in the first movie. As a side-bar, almost a throwaway thing.

A throwaway thing? What?

This is where humanity lives outside the Matrix. This is the dialogue:

NEO
Zion?

TANK
If this war ended tomorrow, Zion
is where the party would be.

NEO
It's a city?

TANK
The last human city. The only
place we got left.

NEO
Where is it?

TANK
Deep underground. Near the
earth's core, where it's still
warm. You live long enough, you
might even see it.

Further on Zion is mentioned in connection with the warning and later in the even more important topic of the access codes and coming from Tanks mouth:

TANK
We can't let that happen, Trinity.
Zion is more important than me.
Or you, or even Morpheus

Or Agent Smiths:

AGENT SMITH
Once Zion is destroyed, there is
no need for me to be here. Do you
understand? I need the codes. I
have to get inside Zion. You have
to tell me how.

I mean seriously. I have the feeling you did not pay attention which is the feeling I get from most of the people who are an the hate train. It seems like those people live off the hype for the fight scenes and visual impact of the first movie which none of the others could deliver because the revolution has happened already. But all movies after Matrix had that problem too and it doesn't say anything about the progression of the story of Matrix.

> But the meat of the story is about the drive to free all of humanity from the Marix. In Matrix 2/3 that element entirely disappears and the "resolution" is some sort of truce between the humans and the machines... that doesn't jibe at all with the "destroy the Matrix" idea, IMO.

It doesn't disappear. It is the main part of the story of those movies. The decisions need to do are just about that. This is what is important and the result is a consequence of what happened along the way.

You should really consider watching those movies again because I think you've missed a lot there.

Sure if we pretend really hard.

The thing is, NFT folks can't have it both ways. The advocates say it's not a URL - it's the art you're buying, that it's going to support artists, that everyone can share in the rewards.

As soon as something goes wrong, well it's actually a URL so take it up with Google, a centralized service, and file a DMCA take-down.

No matter what these grifters are taking advantage of the artist and the buyer.

I like the "social wallet" idea, though no blockchain is needed for that. But there's a real danger that if enough of your friends get compromised, you can get compromised as well, and that can snowball. And most people would not be secure enough. So you'd want to have someone more secure as part of your "social set" - a large organization that actually does serious security. But then you're again depending on some large organization. You could require at least one of several large organizations, but that in turn reduces security.
In some sense I understand what you're saying, but that mode of argument has limitations. Like, you certainly wouldn't say "I don't understand how increasing medical costs doesn't count as success, that means people want to spend their money on medical care, doesn't it?"

I've been on 25-30 mile day hikes. I did fine, got home, and slept really well. I'm in shape, but certainly not an athlete. I was sore the next day, but day after that I might be able to work out.

Could you upgrade that to make a 2D picture? Would you need motors to step it around the sky?
Even with containerized workloads, you still have an ingress, or SPOF (or multiple, when using multicast), and the seamless restart is meant for exactly those processes. Nginx is often used (https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/), or when you use AWS, GCS etc they provide such a service for you.

Not sure how the cloud providers do it though, maybe combination of low DNS TTL and rolling restart since they often have huge fleets of servers which handle ingress?

It's important to use precise language when talking about addiction. It sounds like you're interpreting "addiction" as "habit forming", whereas I believe GP means "physical dependency". I see a lot of people talking past each other in this thread.
I agree completely and did not mean to imply otherwise (hence my phrasing of "it can help with" rather than "it can cure"). Yes, that research involved combination treatment of psilocybin alongside psychotherapy.

That said, the anecdotal effects I listed are just from personal use without psychotherapy. But of course they're anecdotal :)
I assume that, like in this article, control groups also get therapy
I've seen the argument made that the major factor was slavery. In general, they had a cheap source of unskilled labor. Major advances in industrialization were often driven, in no small part, by high labor costs.
Focusing too much on the distinction can lead to false conclusions like “I can use cannabis without any concerns about addiction.

Ignoring the distinction can falsely equate the severity of dependence with harder drugs.

I think it’s important to leave room for both: 1) Yes, there’s a difference between physical/psychological addiction and 2) Sometimes the end result is still addiction, with all of the negatives that come with it.
That's not how ICOs, securities, and the SEC work.

Yeah so hypothetically, if you were depressed and no other treatments worked, your current self would have to decide if the "negative" side effect of altered traits is worth a shot at making your life worth living again. Perhaps some of those traits are even implicated in the depression and they need to be changed for it to lift.

I do agree that patients should be briefed about trait changes, but again, perhaps that's exactly what they need.
Art can't be stolen by NFTs, it can be stolen (for a slightly loose definition of steal, including copyright infringement and wire fraud) by people selling NFTs though.

Openseas looks to be serving up the images, and according to that thread they aren't respecting DMCA requests ("apparently the only way to get them removed is by writing individual emails for each listing"), that's illegal, intentionally doing that is criminal. The people uploading the art without a license are breaking the law regardless of whether or not the site respects the DMCA. The people fraudulently representing themselves as the original artist when they aren't are breaking the law.
Forget OpenSea. If Wikipedia willfully displays unlicensed images taken from Getty Images, Getty Images could get them taken down using existing legal tools.

> Which is smaller than its poor neighbours to the north
Canada.

Indeed Canada does possess more territory — and yet the population remains concentrated almost entirely within 100 miles of the US Border(s). I find it drives home how much more thoroughly the US saturates the territory compared to countries of similar geographical size (which isn’t exactly the measure I was getting at — I was aiming for population density and sprawl — but does seem to be where other comment’s focus lies).

> If we go ahead and exclude the massive Alaska, the 48

Again, I can certainly understand needing to impose random limits to reduce the scale and thereby assist with comprehension — but I’m not sure why we’d pursue that particular hypothetical. If we go ahead and exclude London, the UK becomes an island of farmers without means of export — but London exists, and so does Alaska, so it’s rather a moot point.

Not an accident. Energy. Rome as a meta-organism was limited by available energy- trees weren't enough, and denudation of forests was already a limiting factor. Meanwhile, Britain had plentiful coal in easily-accessible abundance. No point in developing steam and a theory of thermodynamics when you can't use the results.
I don’t think I’ve ever reviewed code from a new hire that didn’t have multiple problems or style issues that needed to be addressed. That’s also actually true for code from most experienced devs too. And it’s rare for my code to get through code review with no issues found. So bottom line, I just don’t think this would work for most teams and developers.
Sounds like this is the only comment in this thread to actually examine the content of the tests that these measures rely upon.

It’s wash trading to be exact, but that’s not really the point.
