Check your stock agreement. I worked somewhere it didn't just grant first right of refusal, but the company had to _approve any sale_. In practice, they approved almost no sales, so this was a ban on selling shares before IPO.
My experience has been essentially the opposite of the person you're replying to.

Health care where I am is great, I can see my primary care doctor mostly same day or next day and the odd tests I've needed have never been any kind of wait longer than 3 weeks (for non-urgent tests). Immediate care for actual emergencies, I've been seen right away. It's a triage system, so if you go to the emergency department at the hospital with the sniffles you could wait a bunch of hours.

Yes, there's a huge housing crisis and yes it's an area of concern. There's some issues here in that the real difference-makers are controlled by cities. There's a LOT of NIMBYism.

I haven't really seen evidence of Canada "crumbling"; just a lot of people pushing that narrative whenever they're despairing over their own fortunes. Could it be better? Absolutely.
Sanctions against countries are sanctions against populations. It doesn't work.

Or this could be an isolated incident where the developer is tied to oligarchs or the government. If you look at the sanctions list posted below there isn't anything that says "ban all developers".

Bit early to be jumping to conclusions either way.
> that involves other people

well if we're going this abstract then everything everywhere involves "other people".

Pragmatically mining, even through a pool does not show who you are or who you are associated with as no one can associate you with anyone if they can't associate your coins with you.

This idea that exchanges will stop handling coins from flagged addresses is nonsense - DEXes already solve that problem anyways, so an exchange will be willingly giving up business for legit customers who may have happened upon a coin with a less-than-legit history and they'll do nothing to prevent money with illicit history from making its way onto their platform.
I just switched to iCloud as well, but I want all my email forwarded to my private gmail account. One thing to be aware of with iCloud is that it doesn't do ARC, so your forwarded emails will fail on SPF. I instead use cloudflare's email forwarding for incoming email, which does support ARC, and then iCloud for outgoing. Works well so far.

Bit of a pain to find this information really - couldn't find a single news outlet with a list of who introduced the bill. Kinda seems like they don't want to be known.
This seems like it could have a significant upside if passed. That it would help promote federated and peer to peer free software systems with no centralized, commercial target to sue. Might even require some of the current giant social networks to pair back significantly to avoid liability.

I'm not saying I want it to pass, just think the unintended consequences might be interesting and even beneficial in some ways.
I love Zoho for what they offer for $12/year. I agree that UI is better on Gmail, which is why I redirect all email to my GMail Dashboard.
£49.84/mo is way too expensive already, even without the contract lock-in...
I have been running my own mail server for two years on my private ISP and have less problems than expected - even with the dynamic IP address (in practice, it changes once in 6-12 months) and no PTR. I also switched the ISP once. I have SPF, DKIM, DMARC.

Edit: The nice thing about running the mail server personally and without a relay (like mailgun) is that mail is to-my-end encrypted. If the other party is running its own mail server, it could even be E2E encrypted. Considering the vast amount of personal information that going through email, this makes me feel good in terms of privacy.

I have never heard of UCEPROTECT and fortunately, I never had to deal with it. The language on the webpage somehow reminds me of Kryptochef...

A small inconvenience is that I had to unblock the IP on Spamhaus PBL every month. By now, it feels as if they know me, because I now only have to do this once if I get a new IP...

Many mail servers are nice and provide the reason for the block even with hints how to unblock it. I successfully unblocked it on Abusix and Microsoft. Never had an issue with Google.

GMX on the other hand will never accept my email because they require a proper PTR record. They are the only company I have come across and I find that scandalous.
Oh wow, do you perhaps have more details on the current situation? The CEO’s response is from 4 years ago.

I also don’t fully understand the reasoning. Having an open SMTP server that doesn’t restrict senders is one thing, but attaching DKIM without further checks is another.
Does the government step in now that this is a national threat to their oil ports?

No they don’t. Nobody records the serial numbers of each bill they receive and pass and who they got it from and gave it to, in a publicly accessible ledger.

Well, the list of animals in whom covid-19 has been found, is getting quite long. Mink, hamsters, white tailed deer, and wide variety of zoo animals. My guess is that the actual list is "mammals".

One should, for sure, leave wild animals alone. But then, we may leave them alone, but that doesn't mean they leave us alone. Raccoons, rats, mice, possums, and a variety of other animals find their way into attics and basements and backyard sheds.

Perhaps the reason that scientists don't want to talk too much about animal reservoirs (with the public anyway), is that the likely result is a genocidal push to kill all mammals, like the mink in Denmark or the hamsters in Hong Kong.

Not MITM, but rather the application processor trusting the baseband processor, which is running who-knows-what network-facing code. Qualcomm claims to have recently implemented memory separation, but without actual public documentation and scrutiny of internals why would one believe them?

Installing F-droid does not remove Google's presence in other software. On a vanilla Android phone, that is all of the Google (Play) services and who knows what centralized-expedient hacks have been put into the OS itself.
You do know there are many more jobs in Canada than coding, right?
Not everyone can spend $500 on lawyer billable hours per SMTP destination multiplied by N number of destinations.

I also think that the likelihood of success in sending legal threats to somebody that demand they accept your SMTP traffic will not stand up in court, if you ever escalated it that far.

As somebody who runs postfix MX on the receiving side of things, I can guarantee you that the day I receive a legal threat from some unknown third party with which I don't have a pre-existing business/contract relationship, demanding that I accept their email, is the day that I blacklist their entire organization and tell them "okay, I'll await service of your statement of claim".

You actually think that the best answer to a network engineering problem is to make legal threats at third party ISPs? Companies with which you don't have a signed service order contract and/or master services agreement?

You say you're a mid sized company. I think you're running a huge legal risk of angering a Comcast or AT&T size entity that has much deeper pockets and legal resources than you. The day that one of those giants calls you out on your bluff is going to be very expensive.

On an ISP-to-ISP relationship level, this is not how you solve SMTP flow traffic problems. I can tell you that if I went to a NANOG conference representing my AS and proudly told other people "oh yeah, we've started sending threats from our lawyers to $OTHERISP1 and $OTHERISP2 because they won't take our mail traffic", that I would quickly be treated as a pariah.
The cryptocurrencies that "fix" this problem vary in the cryptographic tricks they use, but it all boils down to drafting everyone to act as fences as a condition of partaking in the system at all.

It's a technical solution to a social problem. It won't work. You can always move value in, but out is another matter. Trading your Monero (or whatever) for legal-economy assets or currency may be criminalized any day.
> Is it allowed to bike on roads without a bike lane?

Yes! You should probably educate yourself a bit about biking laws in your area if you don't know this. In the vast majority of the US, you have as much right to the road as any other vehicle -- though of course some car drivers don't respect that right.

I regularly bike 40 miles or more for day trips around my area to go to breweries, coffee shops, and parks. I also enjoy exploring new towns and cities by bike -- I've done 100 miles in a day before, just exploring a few towns with great bike infrastructure. Keep biking and that will become easy for you too!

> I respectfully disagree. Human language and characteristics around distributed data stores in the real world have inherent ambiguity implicit in them that Jepsen in my view pretends isn't the case.

We've been doing distributed systems for over 50 years now. There's nothing ambiguous in either the language Jepsen uses or the claims he is examining. The crypto shills chose to pretend the language is ambiguous and invent their own definitions on purpose.

Including the ridiculous "nah, everyone understands that when we speak in present tense it means we mean some unspecified point in a nebulous future".
I also thought that opacity was additive and clamped to 0,1 until right now.

Seem intuitive to me. Half + half = whole. When I make a chart in R and set the color to alpha 0.5, the result looks more or less like an opaque point if I plot 2 of them on top of each other.

Apparently that's wrong, but it's consistent with my not-very-precise observations, and I have never had a need or desire to learn more about how opacity works. One cannot be an expert in all things.

What intuition should a layperson have to suggest that obviously opacity/transmissivity is multiplicative? I don't see the value in deriding the incorrect intuition of uneducated people. In statistics at least we accept that statistics is hard specifically because it can be unintuitive.
Of course there is, but it should be done explicitly - i.e. treat as a string by default but use -n if it's a number rather than having a guess.

This is just vaccine misinformation. Anti vaxxers will already have some excuse for why "this" vaccine is different.
I didn't want to be misleading, sorry. My reasoning was to just benchmark identical programs.

I personally think Haskell's approach to parallelism is wrong, though, since it demands in-code annotations to work. The problem is that the decision on whether an expression should be parallelized doesn't depend on the code itself, but on where the expression is used. For example, if `fib(42)` is the topmost node of your program's normal form, you always want to parallelize its branches (`fib(41)` and `fib(40)`), but if it is called in a deeply nested list node, you don't. That information isn't available on the code of `fib`, so placing "spark" annotations seems conceptually wrong.

HVM parallelizes by distributing to-be-evaluated redexes of the normal form among available cores, prioritizing these close to root. Here is an animation: https://imgur.com/a/8NtnEa3. That always seems like the right choice to me. After all, it just returns the same result, faster. I could be wrong, though. In which case you think parallelism isn't the correct choice? Is it because you don't always want to use the entire CPU? Would love to hear your reasoning.

> Like I get that it helps a lot if you’re doing multiplication with Church numerals…

This isn't about multiplication with Church numerals. Don't you find it compelling to write binary addition as "increment N times" and have it be as efficient as the add-with-carry operation? Making mathematically elegant code fast matters, and HVM does that. See the overview [0] for instance. Also, this allows us to have all the "deforestation" optimizations that Haskell applies on List with hardcoded #rewrite pragmas, for any user-defined datatype, which is also quite useful. There are certainly many uses that I'm not creative enough to think of.

While this bill is strongly opposed by the Internet Society, ACLU, CDT, and EFF, the critiques I've read don't get much into the real "why" behind this legislation continuing to be pushed so forcefully. The pretext is, of course, "protect the children" and more generally law-and-order with a bonus side-helping of "stop those awful social media giants." While these justifications are (hopefully) obvious misdirection to most, I'd like to see more mainstream discussion about who this bill benefits and why. The legislation 'coincidentally' achieves exactly the agenda proposed by the "surveillance state" (ie CIA, NSA, FBI, DHS, law enforcement lobby, state prosecutors, etc). While it doesn't specifically prohibit public access to encryption, it seeks to create nearly the same effect by making it legally risky for large social media and platform companies to offer end-to-end encryption as a default to law-abiding citizens. It's no accident that almost every version of the bill creates this exposure to essentially bottomless legal liability for platforms offering secure communications.

Frankly, this scares the crap out of me. These people seem incapable of understanding the existential threat to free society and democracy posed by limiting everyone's ability to communicate private thoughts. While not explicitly outlawing untappable communications, it's much easier to identify who is choosing to use end-to-end encryption when it's not the typical default. This will ultimately put all of us who care about secure communications under default suspicion, whether our interest in private comms is a moral ideal, political principle or simply proper technical architecture and data hygiene. In today's multi-national environment of nation-state, criminal and privateer (NSO etc) threat actors, insecure communications over Internet infrastructure should only be seen as an ill-advised risky behavior or a technical bug.
It's called a career because you do it your whole life and you keep getting paid more money to do it. What are other job options for truckers? Fast food? Warehouse? It's not like you can just go get a SWE job.

Yes, but you agree to that mandate before getting the job. When you join the Army you know you're selling your body to the state.

Of course politicians are politicizing. But they're just riding the wave of something that people are already mad about--like higher taxes and abortion. Your comment makes it sound like people are mindless automatons whose opinions have no substance. They are opinions that differ from your own but that's OK. We need both sides of the discussion for a healthy democracy.
I am saying that if we condemn such behavior in all cases (even when neutrality is violated in our favour) we'll reduce the situations when that second strategy becomes profitable, and that will benefit everyone. We don't even need a very large percentage of people for this, even a relatively small group that always supports neutrality will be enough to keep the market neutral.
Isn't that the definition of fungibility? Every user of currency is implicitly a "fence" for every other user.

Its an optimal choice for business. Banks, financial institutes, pharm companies and other boring places already has a plethora of experienced and moderately motivated java developers.

It's hard to sell them new features/projects when their devs cannot decypher the language you used. (Eg. scala) You can't really put a finger on what you gain from using a new language apart from it's harder to find someone to work with it an he will ask for more money.

It's only Stadia which is struggling. The wider business of game-streaming seems to be growing, with offerings from nVidia, Amazon, Microsoft, and Sony.

As for control being taken from the user (even more than the norm with retroactive removal of content, locked-down consoles, widespread hostility to modding, etc), that's only an issue if games are available only by streaming. Otherwise, it's offering more options, rather than withdrawing any.

I believe Stadia has one or two exclusives, but that's all.
I would think that every GFM campaign is approved by default once the money starts flowing in. To change it after the fact should be seen as a criminal act.
It does look date, but damn, it is so functional. It just does what it needs to, which is beautiful.

Just like Calibre for book management. Looks super old, but does everything so well.

I would take functional over pretty any time of the day.

That said, great work by OP.

How did they arrive at such a correlation? What explains such a correlation? Why are they tracking these metrics? If companies are tracking these metrics and found an actionable correlation, what does it say knowing that these corporations are very gung-ho about promoting DEI?

I strongly disagree, UTXO model will be necessary to scale smart contract platforms in the future as the account model will never hold up with the necessarily expensive sync operations it performs.

UTXO model, or a derivative will win out when it comes to distributed blockchains that can scale way beyond current distributed blockchains capacity.
Yea, spin adds a new level of complications. You can distinguish between two otherwise–indistinguishable protons if they have opposite spin, but the spin of a proton can also change over time (usually due to interactions with other particles, such as stray radio waves passing through your experiment).

Going back to the experiment that I described, you can imagine that the particles are released at A and B with opposite spins, and then the detector at A’ only detects the spin that corresponds to the particle at A. This causes you to measure yet another probability, distinct from the other two, because there are now more possibilities and there are still multiple ways to cause the detector to find something. It could detect the proton from A, but the proton from A could also have its spin flipped and thus not be detected. The particle from B could arrive at A’ with the wrong spin and not be counted, or it could have its spin flipped along the way and be counted. You still cannot tell which proton you detected!

Similar complications occur with polarization of photons, which someone else mentioned in one of the comments. It’s worse though because polarization is a continuous quantity, and there are more ways to change it.
