> Can the NFT be cryptographically verified to be authentic?

No. Authenticity of the data is not part of the concept.

What would that even mean in the context of non-physical contracts? You can buy an experience as an NFT (i.e. dinner with a C-list celeb) and the NFT serves as nothing more than a receipt saying you purchased that experience. Doesn't have to be unique (several people could by the same), doesn't include any specific metadata relating to the buyer.

What kind of "cryptographic authenticity" would even apply in such case?

It gets worse with digital assets if all you get is an IPFS URI. The actual data can be removed or altered at any point without the NFT itself being affected in way. Unless the asset itself is stored in the blockchain (which is practically impossible for anything beyond thumbnail-sized images) there's nothing to validate on the BC besides the token itself.

Those are End to End System latency. Your USB Input Devices and Monitor Refresh Rate, excluding anything in between, could easily had 20ms delay in the worst case scenario. A 60Hz monitor would have had 16.6ms of worst case latency alone.
Language is incredibly contextual. Database schemas are mostly rough approximations, generally driven by the principle “close enough to be useful” rather than “a one-to-one model of reality”.

That being said, I’ve gone though a similar caving-to-the-reality-of-database-schemas a few years ago, when I changed my music making artist name from a single word to a first name, last name schema.

There isn't a "proper" solution that handles everything because just when you have text nailed down, someone decides their name is a novel pictogram (Prince) or an odor (no one yet, but if the iSmell was still being manufactured...).

It is an instance of a general problem that policy can be anything, even stuff that is inconsistent. Closest I've ever got was in an object DB where I could define various subclasses of a Name class that were related to the Person instances (along with titles and whatnot). There were obvious efficiency and UI issues. Harder to do with relational.

But you ignore the fact that you likely don’t feel the need wait for long-term studies with information, technology, other medicine, etc.

That’s my point. There’s nothing wrong with your theory on paper. But in practice I’m willing to bet those that believe it selectively apply it. And that’s where my curiosity lies. In the absence of negative evidence how do you determine when to “wait for long-term data” and when do you “just go for it”?

Like using a cellphone. I’m sure many of those that want to “wait and see” on the vaccine readily use cellphones and didn’t feel the need to “wait and see”. What’s the difference? I’m genuinely curious. Is it the expected utility?
That was very informative pedantry; thanks!
Why does your software need to enforce icelandic law?
Consent during a sex act and consent to an image that you created continuing to exist after you knowingly release it into the wild are two different things. (Not including revenge porn or other nonconsensual recordings, obviously).

An actor who performs in an embarrassingly bad movie might wish they could refuse to let their work be used after the fact, but they already signed away their right to retract their work.

An OnlyFans model is also the creator of the content though, so they might have more leverage depending on OF's legal terms. If they still own the rights to all media they create and distribute through OF, then they could petition for removal based on DMCA or something (I'm not a lawyer but it sounds plausible).

Morally, I hope FB can help regretful adult models remove content of themselves if they don't want it to exist anymore. But practically, that will be very difficult to guarantee.
Indeed, there is no free lunch. Just look at Intel's missteps on their 10nm process. There's a company with decades of experience building semiconductors and $77 billion in revenue last year that took close to 4 years to recover from initial mistakes with their transition from their 14nm process to a 10nm class process. If Intel has that much difficulty, just imagine how many orders of magnitude harder it is for a small upstart without all of that institutional experience and resources to recreate that process step from scratch.

Do you have reason to believe MobileCoin scales any better than any other open blockchain protocol? I doubt it.

Also, payments with free floating crypto like MobileCoin and bitcoin really isn't practical in most of the western world, due to the requirements of capital gains tax reporting, not to mention the instability of the price.

MobileCoin is seriously behind the ball on this, even though it's a problem being actively solved on bitcoin's lightning network, https://seekingalpha.com/article/4459757-biggest-bitcoin-dev...

You are toxic and a perfect example of shilling for corporations. I bet you depend on that package and many others that you and your corporate overlords haven't paid a cent for. Deplorable at best. I donate to projects that I use as a percentage of revenue. Name more than one OSS project that your company has actually donated money to on a regular basis to ensure that it's original maintainer has some sort of compensation for the work they put in based on your usage? I bet you can't because you are more than happy to exploit things that you consider free. Defending freeloading dicks just puts you in that category.
As far as I know, almost all practical cases can be dealt with by storing family name (which must be optional), given name, and locale. Or just store a name as arbitrary Unicode text, if you don’t need to do anything fancy.

No, there are fairer ways to finance it. Also, government will only get in the way since they have to satisfy so many constituents so there will be a huge amount of bureaucracy to keep it going.

Right now there are billionaires that are directly benefiting from the advantages of open source. It's time that they create foundations that focus on maintaining open source software and making sure that the movement continues. Or users need to pay a minimum amount at a certain point after they adopt it in a for profit venture. It doesn't have to be a large amount but it needs to be enough to keep the software up to date and free of bugs.

The Linux foundation is a good model. The foundation pays Linus Torvalds to oversee the OS's development and make sure it continues to be kept up to date.

I agree that software needs to be libre but it can't be at no cost forever. It's not maintainable. Very few people can donate their time and know-how for very long before they run out of money. At the very least, the programmers behind the software need to eat and have a place to live.
near as i can tell, he used a stirn concealed vest camera.

round film plate. no cassette, just round emulsified glass. six-exposure 14cm or four-exposure 17cm depending on model. exposure is allegedly adjustable somehow, but i'm not sure of the mechanism. plate loads into an internal frame with masks, advanced by the center dial, not sure how masks align.

This is an interesting read:

In summary, Friedman’s fallacy is derived from two fundamental, yet counterintuitive, observations of economic history. One, when the economy is rapidly and robustly growing, and there are plenty of profitable investment opportunities, interest rates tend to increase, as both financial and non-financial institutions bid for funding/financing to take advantage of the differential between the current interest rates and the future returns on invested capital. Two, rather than differentiate between good or bad credit based only on price (via higher or lower interest rates), banks and institutional investors also differentiate between good or bad credit based on access, so that uncreditworthy businesses are altogether excluded from global debt markets, counterintuitively causing falling, rather than rising, interest rates as credit is contracting.
Thanks for the input - that is useful to know.
> So systems in these countries should just be built without any regard for foreign names?

I never said anything about "should" and I think this conflation of "what this person knows the world is" with "what this person thinks the world should be" is detrimental to discourse. I've seen it in multiple places, especially online, and it leads to arguments where both people actually agree on what should be, but one of them is talking about what is and the other person can't or won't tell the difference between the two.
Ew. So...the interviewee also has to be comfortable in front of a camera, too? And, probably should be familiar with lighting and audio, good with memorizing a script. Now they have to practically be an IG influencer to get a face to face?

Anyone who has been through civics 102 in the US knows that there's lots of ways to get your passport taken away, and without one you're not getting far. It looks like Canada's requiring either passports or fancy drivers licenses (only available from some states), and Mexico's at least as strict.
> The current situation is forcing states and hospitals to [...] and allow health providers to stay at work even if they themselves are positive for COVID-19 because there is no one available to take their place

I wonder if any scheduling systems or software can take that into account and try to arrange things so the health providers who have to work while they themselves have COVID are only dealing with patients that also have COVID, so that patients who do not have COVID aren't getting it from the doctors or nurses?
Yes, unfortunately, that seems to be the case. I've had some startup colleagues who were married with young kids, but it was rare, and often the case that their partner had a stable well-paying job. The risk simply becomes too much of a burden at a certain point in life, for most people.

One of the most interested/underrated side effects of the pandemic is that it has forced a lot of people to become somewhat knowledgeable on things like camera quality/positioning, lighting, and sound/noise cancellation.

> > Anyone who claims to have their identity figured out is either in denial or stopped digging into it for the time being. The rabbit hole truly never ends.

Like you stated, it's a bit of a leap to conflate self identity and one's name. It's just an identifier, not the full self.

And the false dichotomy seems a tad presumptuous.

Some folks truly do have a firm understanding of themselves and lack self-doubt.

Or for some their identity isn't the focus of their activities, and acts as a simple tool to achieve other things.

Or perhaps what they've figured out is to accept that their identity is fluid and will forever be hard to define.

I've never seen that before, it's hilarious. As to why, imagine you're from a country that uses a subpar date formatting like
MM DD YYYY, and while you're conscious enough to notice its badness and improve on it slightly by adding an "M", you're not conscious enough to search for a fundamentally different approach - a sane date format. A local maxima of sorts.

On the axiom that betraying such faith leads to æternal damnation in the afterlife, it seems a strategic choice to me.

4%.
4% is the number. Don’t count on anything over this.
First: take it easy, a couple of months is nothing, and your boss left, so you’re kind of in limbo, that happens.

Second: talk to people. There is nothing wrong telling your coworkers / senior people how you feel. Just pull someone who seems senior and nice apart and tell them straight up: “hey Can I talk to you too ne sec. - I am a bit at a loss here, since my boss left I am not exactly sure what I am supposed to do, who do you think I should talk to to sort this out?”
I think perhaps the wording might have confused you (and now reading again I can see why.) I was merely expressing sadness at the situation, that the man found himself left with no other possibilities. Particularly the quote: "It was either die or do this transplant. I want to live. I know it’s a shot in the dark, but it’s my last choice." By "things have come to" I didn't mean in society, I meant in his life.
Regarding the grandparent comment, they are definitely not poor. They have a lot of money.

One of the comments below linked to a couple of videos, one of which is this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DWWeOt4jWM

In this, Burka Dutt is interviewing a local pandit. He says he is not sure if these are all covid deaths. He gives 2 reasons for the increase in number of bodies:

1. fear of covid

2. increase in cremation costs due to increase in covid deaths.

So, those bodies are not necessarily all due to covid deaths.

The video shows a lot of bodies cremated on the river bank. Once the water level rises during rain, the pandit says they will all float into the river.

Also learned that some inter the bodies of infants and unmarried women directly into the river. This may explain the 2015 incident where they found more than 100 bodies, mostly of unmarried girls and children.
They would have done that ages ago I think. They could have made the „default“ Android messaging app similar to iMessage.

But couldn‘t because they needed to keep the OEMs (mostly Samsung) and regulators at bay. Android needed to be open in the beginning so Google could catch up and overtake iOS. But obviously there are drawbacks (from their perspective) if you don‘t control the whole ecosystem including hardware.

J&J is an adenovirus-vector vaccine. They're almost as new as mRNA - before the covid ones, it had only been approved once, in an Ebola vaccine, in 2019.

Novavax I don't think is available yet.
It’s completely normal for all medications and especially vaccines to be monitored very closely after they are first approved (also called "phase 4").

This is a completely normal part of the approval process, simply because (phase 3) studies with a couple thousand participants will miss very rare side effects (if they exist) because, you know, statistics.

Of course you can trust a vaccine much, much, much more if it has been administered to a couple billion people as opposed to a couple thousand people, with no serious side effects being observed (or the side effects that are observed accounted for and reacted to).

You implication that this is somehow newspeak is deeply weird and irrational.
I like Paul but stuff like this is blinkered:
