My takeaway of the old discussion:

* It's not clear that it's the "first ever".

* The part about "recalling life events" is only a wild speculation.
As a french, I would like to see a governmental institution at national or European level which aims to develop open-source software for administrations, police, public hospitals, defence... This would reassure me more about technological sovereignty and the use of taxpayers' money, I am even convinced that it would be much more interesting economically. It could even help to catch up with our technological delay in terms of cloud infrastructure...
but the problem is finding a chip that will pass through all the things you expect USB-C to handle over both ports.

Why bother when no other manufacturer does? Just give me two USB 2.0 ports for peripherals.

From the USG perspective, no good smart contracts exist, because good contracts are impossible to create on the existing Blockchain architecture. From USG perspective, a good blockchain requires all nodes to be registered banks with KYC. But that's not important because no one is really interested in those, because the purpose of Blockchain is to avoid regulation.
Just curious, do you really notice an input delay? Is there a way of measuring this? Because I tried to compare Supernotes to BBEdit and couldn’t tell the difference
Assuming crypto is or becomes a systemic risk to the world economy, anyone predict what happens in the event of a crash?

I suspect bailing crypto speculators out will be relatively unpalatable.
this why I don't trust platitude-ing about the environment that isn't back by economics. real solutions require thinking of the world as a complex, dynamic system, where influencing one variable can have unintended consequences on another.
Thank you, will take a look at it.

These laws don’t have the effect people think they will in tech given that “salary” is often a small part of someone’s overall compensation.

A role might say it has a $150,000 “salary” but if someone has say $300,000 in RSUs on top of that then they’re really making $450,000 with a $150,000 “salary”.

Eg in the US employers must publish the “salary” for certain visa applicants, but those numbers are often only a small fraction of total comp because they exclude equity-based compensation. Given that different companies give different cash/equity mix in their comp plans this leads to a lot of misleading data points about the pay of various companies. One company many look like it it’s more (because it does in cash salary) but actually the total pay relative to others is much less (eg because they give out less stock).

> I believe people still have the power to push for small/minor changes in government so long as those changes don't threaten the powerful. Anything else is pretty unlikely.

I use to think the same but apparently the anti corruption tech is getting every bit as draconian as everything else. Governments will eventually have to go full retard and be openly corrupt or they have to deal with oddities retroactively.

For example, many would love to award contracts directly without holding a proper bidding process but it gets increasingly unlikely to get away with it.

Not needing Anki itself is pretty much a requirement for me, because that's the way which makes sense in my worldview. Tools work independently and feed into each other—not get slapped onto each other, which kinda smells like a whiff of bad OOP.

I began a feeble attempt at a lib for my own purposes, but I had to take Anki db structs a little at a time just to keep my frustration in check.

There are in fact some libs for writing Anki data: https://github.com/kerrickstaley/genanki and maybe https://github.com/patarapolw/AnkiTools — but genanki, while looking quite good for one-time generation, doesn't seem to be able to update notes.

Afaik Anki itself does include Python libs for creating and manipulating db records, which can be used in third-party scripts—however dunno if they work without the full app running, and on top of that I personally keep trying to use Lua, since it runs circles around Python in terms of speed.

Agreed, however it's also an experience that almost everyone has had, and the straightforward solution (carry two cards from two different banks) _also_ tends to resolve the issue of your bank account being frozen.
For USDT, you could make the case that it is comparable to the assets banks hold from customers.

The creators of USDT claim that every holder can exchange it back to 1USD each.

Although legally this is very different from a bank, I would argue that economically, it’s similar.

Sounds like that creates two incentives, one the one hand to mention directly in the job posting whether salary will be a small part of someone's overall compensation, on the other hand this might also incentive companies to push the salary/stock ratio up to appear more competitive.
The government likes it's debt. If they had (only) crypto, first thing they'd do is borrow more of it, or, if that's impossible, create it using tax-funded supercomputers, which is even worse than printing it the old way.

You have to consider how you spend your time. Not reading on the happenings in your city, state, and country is a choice that you make every time you do something different. Is what you sacrifice by being up to date on the latest happenings more important? Then do that. You would be in the majority.

Surprise: for me, Anki seems to have lost some data when changing to the 2.1 scheduler—though thankfully I just laughed it off and restored the backup I made immediately before the migration. Will need to repeat the process and figure out what exactly changes, one day.

Of course, usually changing the schema shouldn't lose data, so there's no need to be afraid of it in general.

As far as I can see, Bitcoiners are especially hammering the messages about Austrian economics, the right of freedom to transact, self-custody, separating money from the state and so on. Their scripture material, rarely talk about "price" at all. The maxis will even make fun of you with 1 bitcoin = 1 bitcoin meme. I don't want to make an equally ridiculous claim about "why people buy Crypto" - but clearly not everyone buys Crypto to sell in a week and make more USD.

I guess Google is trying to give you the correct answer to your query (especially with the knowledge graph stuff, although it’s not always perfect) and that’s not really what you want as a conspiracy theorist/manipulator/liar etc.

Temporarily. Because they were expecting the consumers to return, which was in this case reasonable expectation. Do you really think they would continue to do so indefinitely?
I think the air is almost transparent to infrared.

The underfloor heating uses a low temperature; the floor is ~24 C. There is little air movement because there is a very small temp gradient. With a radiator or a stove, its temperature is much higher, prob > 60 C. So you will have a column of hot air that rises to the top of the room and stays there. And at the floor level it is much colder.
Specifically with insulation, have you had trouble with air exchange?

I keep hearing (to my naive/inexperienced/non-builder mind) contradictory advice about how insulated houses should be, and I've been trying to figure out how to square decreasing heating/cooling costs with keeping a house from feeling stuffy.

I guess for stuff like the triple glazing that's not really affecting air exchange in the first place, it's just preventing energy loss, since you're already not doing air exchange through your wall. And maybe getting better insulation in walls means you can crack open a window without it being as much of a problem?
I only found out that you don't have to be freezing your ass of for the entire winter (and a big part of fall and spring) when I went to a university and moved from my coastal home town to the colder continental city.

> The state could use public resources better by providing uniform education on cryptocurrencies. Most of the terms aren't standardized and even their use isn't.

I'm not sure that the USG defining standard terms of use would mean that those terms become adopted by the entire crypto ecosystem.

I'm also not sure how a USG regulated contract market would play in a space whose main attraction seems to be "no regulations"
Fully agree. I too dislike the protest, the methods, the cause, the goal. Yet I see the benefit in something that operates separate from the state.

To rewrite my common quote on this, using your phrase:

"Crypto is not about dismantling the state. It's about decoupling from the state".
There are not contradicting views. If you look at them with a lenses of preserving wealth they align quite neatly. I’d like to see a counter example.

Nazis are the very definition of preserving the wealth of a few. It’s just you have seen the words “National Socialism” and assumed that meant left. You’ll find the labels are high jacked quite often. But left and right remain more consistent.

Are you saying that trying to bring more benefit to wage earners is not good?

Could you give an example of right wing policy that wasn’t focused on preserving wealthy elites?
Regulation will happen.

Some Crypto people may believe that they are immune to the governments of the world but they really aren't.

Whoever can kick down your door has the ability to make some rules and especially after a significant economic crash rules will be demanded.

Since crypto doesn't do anything fundamentally new I predict that most of those rules will look like current financial laws "but on the blockchain".

That or the industry will just fizzle out once it turns out that you can't escape the society you are living in.
Countsort in Rust; Sort signed or unsigned types at O(n) time complexity
Given the wide availability of more complete data points on total comp packages from other sources (eg levels.fyi) it’s unlikely a “government mandated salary database” will add any net new information in many cases, and per above that government salary data will likely be misleading at best.

I do get that the optics look good though and it makes politicians feel like they’re doing something.
Yes, this is much better than a "normal vs. strict" directive in any conceivable way.

It also helps on slowly deprecating the older behavior, you just say "nginx2004 is now deprecated", and people understands what you mean.
The "inflation/deflation" argument is a red herring. The shape of mining curves is much more important than their upper limit. For all of the bluster that deflationary systems are better for the little guy because their wealth isn't eaten by inflation, the logarithmic mining curves are the biggest source of wealth consolidation seen perhaps in human history, shifting absolutely bonkers amounts of wealth from latecomers to early adopters.

And while individual coins can be designed not to inflate, the overall proliferation of new tokens, forks, and entire blockchains does mean that there are way more assets over time. This sucks some of the investment out of older systems like BTC, putting downward pressure on their price. This can function similar to inflation and, in the extreme, send a very large number of these systems back down to zero.
> French people are notorious for refusing to understand tiny errors in pronunciation by foreigners (while North African French speakers will accept anything you say so long as you get a letter or two right).

I think it's a mix of multiple reasons.

First, French is a language which not only has no word stress but actively blends words together when speacking in a sentence. Correct word pronunciation is key to understanding and what foreigners view as small errors sometimes do actually make their sentence unintelligible to a French speaker from France.

Then, language proficiency is a strong social marker in France. So, if you speak broken French, people will subconsciously view you as lower class/uneducated.
Why can't they just ban the crypto exchanges already? If Canada is willing to freeze the bank accounts of protesters, it's definitely possible.

I don't quite follow what problem this solves.

The way I see it, Markdown is great for outputting simple text and readily used for that reason in the Wordpress blog space. Once you start needing more complex styling and formatting then i'd go for either Latex or HTML, both feature rich markup languages.

I use markdown for my everyday notes right now, and love it. The syntax is simple, fast to type either on mobile or desktop and pretty easy to read. Looking over the tag based syntax of Textile i'm not sure i'd have as easy a time using it for fast output... and if i'm wanting more style and moving to tags, I might as well use HTML... so what's the use case?
Absolute bullshit. Bitcoin does not even use processors for mining, it uses massively specialised hardware that is absolutely useless for anything else. No advances in bitcoin mining will translate to gain in anything else.

It also massively increases emissions and does nothing to decrease them. The difficulty adjustment algorithm of bitcoin will ensure that you always have to keep wasting more resources to mine, and will cancel out any gains you ever make. By design. Bitcoin is explicitly built to waste resources.
