How about AAVE and their Arc product specifically? https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/permissioned-defi-goes-live-...

You've got a fully compliant (in terms of anti money laundering), whitelisted counterparties only, decentralized lending and borrowing platform that completely eliminates the friction of a typical corporate treasury banking experience.

You deposit dollars, you earn yield in dollars. If you want exposure to eth or BTC, you can exchange dollars for either or borrow at transparent rates. The transaction settles in seconds and the fees are fractions of what it costs to wire funds.

My organization uses Wells Fargo for similar services (sans BTC and ETH) and pays considerably more for the pleasure of receiving less in return. Aave achieves it with virtually none of the back-office or legacy COBOL based software that these dinosaur, heavily entrenched, ethically challenged financial institutions require. It's like pre-acquisition WhatsApp compared to at&t efficiency comparison.

There's innovation and value creation happening in crypto, whether you choose to see it or not.

The hostility to crypto from a bunch of SV engineers who have scammed society out of billions (trillions?) of dollars pitching ineffective digital marketing is not without irony. Not to mention the societal and political fallout from the uncontrolled spread of misinformation, aided and abetted by the likes of Facebook, Twitter, and other SV darlings. Pushing ads to fuel consumerism and coming on here to complain about emissions from proof of work Blockchains. It's rich.

It's not easy to build software that actually solves large scale problems. Most of the companies/apps in crypto will fail, just like internet startups. What succeeds will likely disrupt the financial system.

We owe it to the universe to send out interstellar probes loaded with micro organisms to seed interesting planets.

The notion that we have to sterilize all the interplanetary probes just so we don't "infect" other dead planets is just silly. We should have dropped a bag of life into Saturn's atmosphere, instead of a sterile probe.

I mostly replied my thoughts on your other comment. But let me add that again, it isn't about French Canadians having their own content for themselves. That's again the view that's very consumer/provider capitalist driven. It is about them having a voice that reaches other Canadians, including non French Canadian ones.

So in this case, yes, I'm taking a societal view, it's showing respect, interest and that we're all listening to each other to make the best society, and giving everyone an outlet.

So you can easily say, ok, let 60% of all content be pure consumer/producer free market driven. But reserve a 40% to make sure Canadians of all circle of life and background have a voice that can reach other Canadians.

And that would also include having voices for Ontarians, yes even truckers, or anyone else who shows interest to broadcast content, they can go to the CRTC and ask for a spot, which they'd be granted proportionally, even if their content isn't a money maker that could survive the free market.

I'm not convinced that starlink is cheaper or better for than ground based cellular infrastructure - its closest technical analog.

It does however possess two chief advantages - the appearance of being novel and speed of construction. To build a cellular network to cover the areas that starlink does would take a decade - where it can be done at all. The aforementioned novel appearance also gets it largely free spectrum, which I believe starlink didn't have to go thru auction for.

To be clear - it's not novel, it's more or less a cellular network where the cell sites move about instead of the subscriber - which is something iridium did. I'm still not sure it can make money however.
If you want something like a pie chart, you can always go for a donut chart. It's still flawed as a communication tool if clarity is your main goal, but it's at least arguably prettier than a pie chart and easier to read the relative sizes accurately.
This is true. Any kid who is capable of naming themselves has also opted out of child safety. The two characteristics are irreversibly linked.

In addition, the existence of kids who are capable of naming themselves must mean that other kids should be bumper mush. This is the only way to preserve the American Way.

I’ve been on GCP since Google App Engine was their first major product (2008ish I want to say? Maybe 2009) and that would only give me 14 years experience on GCP. Plus Go wasn’t originally supported on App Engine until much later.
sorry. i'm trying to be eloquent here.

the gov or court was never a part of ATC union negotiation, until they decided that a legal(explicitly legal, defined, upheld in courts) strike was illegal.

what they did to a union who can protest the decision? they formally decertified it.

thats wrong in so many directions, not only in legal system favoring one side, not having a council between the parties, but also ill-defined sharp response, as well as showing that gov dont need any base to dissolve(formally - discertify) any union organization? and all this without formal involvement of the POTUS?

i thought i understood the values and boundaries of local legal system. turns out i'm lost.

Ha, I started with Windows CE "Pocket PC". An HP iPaq H1930 iirc and then a Dell Axim x50v.

These devices were really niche, to say the least. I’ve never seen another than the mines. Still, there was an astonishingly high number of available applications. Some developers from this era, especially game devs, are now great mobile devs.

Talking about games, there were some real gems on those devices. Hell, there was even an Age of Empires port. It’s sad that they are mostly lost.

This is the way. I had not considered this before reading your comment.

If this system results in syntactically identical code [1] it should not matter if it’s displaying for you differently [2] if it means you can read or write around or in it more comfortably it’s just a hairstyle.

I was asked to familiarize myself with Replit the other day and it seemed the editor defaulted to two spaces for Python. Two spaces?! I changed it to four.

A friend joined my session and began to code with me, their editor was in the default two space indentation. It was madness.

Mid 2000s here. It was a fight between The End and C89.5 for us.

Took a look at my zoom.app locally installed on just my user (thankfully), and found some interesting things in the plist...

EDIT: This formatting sucks, how does HN not have markdown fenced codeblocks? Anyway, here's less fail formatting:

https://pastebin.com/WiRpWs61

```
<key>SMPrivilegedExecutables</key>
<dict>
<key>us.zoom.ZoomDaemon</key>
<string>identifier &quot;us.zoom.ZoomDaemon&quot; and anchor apple generic and certificate leaf[subject.OU] = BJ4HAAB9B3 and certificate leaf[subject.CN] = &quot;Developer ID Application: Zoom Video Communications, Inc. (BJ4HAAB9B3)&quot;</string>

</dict>
</dict>
</plist>
```

That's `~/Applications/zoom.us.app/Contents/Resources/Zoom-Info.plist`, last few lines of the file.

Even though I didn't install it with admin permissions, it's at least trying to slip that shady shit in under the radar. No idea if it succeeded or not, need to do some deep analysis to find out, but probably the simplest/surest fix is to nuke the entire filesystem and rebuild my macos installation from scratch. Done it before many a time, easy enough, just a laborious pain.

Never again, Zoom. Never again.

(Same goes for Teams, and basically anything that isn't browser-based, by the way. Assumption of human rights violations is now the default.)

I don't care if this is just a "harmless bug" or an accident. Too many attempts at shady shit have been glossed over in the name of forgiving an honest mistake. Not anymore. I'm done.

Except signal doesn’t have conference room hardware and has low group size limits, so doesn’t solve the problems that zoom, webex, etc solve.

I’m also going to get that while bullshit (I trust signal’s crypto a hell of a lot more than more or less any other company) I would bet they don’t have some arbitrary set of certificates or whatever for doctors to be able to use them

Tell HN: Use some minimal OpenGraph meta on HN
I am sure there's a philosophy to keeping the html <head> as minimal as possible. Keep it simple, right. Suggesting to consider adding a tiny bit more metadata.

Just shared Zoom's newest privacy issue (with the microphone listening in when not in a meeting [0]). Not by HN's fault but LinkedIn doesn't use the <title> for some reason when generating a link preview. I think it is using <og:title> and lacking that it parsed the title as "Sunspark 4 hours ago | root | parent | next [-]". An OpenGraph title, description, and maybe an image is a nice to have.

You know the quote "wherever you go, there you are?" At some put point, I started putting the emphasis on you rather than there. Sure, you can go see Paris, and it's a lovely city, but you're still you. Some people travel to "find themselves," but never do. It's still you.

Thats a big caveat. Tons of startups dont have that and still consume billions in capital.
You should read my reply to the other commenter.

I'm taking a view that is about giving all Canadians the right to free speech and to be heard by other Canadians. Not one that is about the consumer and for them to have the most interesting and entertaining content at the cheapest price.

That means that if Canadians are looking to broadcast a message or values or some of their history and culture or any idea, either through a news report, an opinion piece, a talk show, a story told as music or a movie, etc. Well they should be able to do so without having to win the free market and outcompete everyone else even foreign broadcasters or content makers.

That means, reserve them a little bit of "air time" to give their message a chance to reach other Canadians. This is their right to free speech, to be heard and be considered as Canadians by other Canadians without intermediary controlling their narrative or financial and other interests playing into it.

You don't have to make all of it just that, 60% or 70% can still just be free for all free market pure consumer driven of what makes money versus what doesn't. But to reserve a fraction of that, like 30%, for Canadians looking to reach other Canadians through broadcast I think that's a great thing as a society and we need to make sure there are ways for them to do so that are protected by our institutions.

And that's also why sometimes some of those programs will even get grants, to help them produce the content. It's about preserving people's right to have a voice in our society, even the poors.
> It must be noted that the satellites were not directly damaged by the geomagnetic storm. The storm warmed the atmosphere which caused it to expand, leading to additional drag that prohibited the satellites from leaving their low "safe mode" orbit.

So they perished “with” geomagnetic storm, not “of” geomagnetic storm?
It's pretty cool in that commodity integrated hardware is capable of doing something practical at those frequencies. Not long ago it was a struggle to get the Pro Audio Spectrum ISA card working at all.

It's awful in that using the auditory domain is too much an intrusion into the human space. There is enough noise pollution. Interference patterns around the room may generate harmonics at audible frequencies. Young kids can hear high frequencies we forgot we ever could. I can still hear CRT flybacks. Sometimes I thought I heard something electronic in conference rooms but convinced myself it was nothing.

Someone else was complaining about it affecting their cochlear implant. That is horrifying.

It is not so farfetched that it has an adverse affect on health either. America is losing diplomats left and right to some mysterious ultrasonic weapon, or at least that is one of the leading theories.

It is awful that my CPU has to be constantly running a FFT to read this signal. I think Apple has an ASIC which does the Siri voice recognition.

It's awful that it triggers the orange light to be constantly on so you end up ignoring it. What if Zoom is simultaneously using the microphone stream for nefarious purposes.

This is what Bluetooth was made for. This is a worse idea than Wifi over lighting. Even the 9-digit Zoom dial codes are better.

This didn't affect satellites that were in their final LEO orbits; it affected part of a batch of newly launched satellites that were lower down, on their way up toward their final orbit, and therefore susceptible to the temporary thickening of the upper atmosphere. The effect on the lifespan of Starlink satellites is just to add slightly more "infant mortality" compared to a hypothetical world without geomagnetic storms -- 40 satellites is about 2% of the ones they've launched.
