You don't even need neighborhood datacenters; you could just access your desktop machine in the basement with your lightweight portable mobile terminal in the living room. Just the other night I used mpv on one laptop to stream a video file from the other laptop over Wi-Fi with python2 -m SimpleHTTPServer, and XPra can do the same thing in the same way for remotely accessed applications. (Of course, ssh -X can kind of do that too, but it's a lot less efficient and more insecure.)

In theory we could have much-lower-power wireless communication systems: maybe using lasers, with MEMS corner reflectors on the mobile station to transmit, and a simple photodiode with a dichroic filter over it to receive. Or maybe using submillimeter waves from a phased-array antenna, like the Starlink terminal. Or just time-domain UWB pulse radio in conventional microwave bands, but optimized for low power usage instead of super high data rates or precise ranging.

But, right now, evidently even Bluetooth Low Energy from the leading ultra-low-power silicon vendor costs 10 milliwatts when you have it on. And it's not clear if the technologies I described above will materialize. So the amount of dumb that it makes sense to put into a wireless networked mobile terminal is only about 10 milliwatts of dumb. And 10 milliwatts is not that dumb. Even with a conventional low-power CMOS Cortex-M (300 pJ per cycle, 2 DMIPS/MHz) that's about 30 MIPS or 60 DMIPS of dumb. That's dumb like a SPARC 10 workstation from the mid-90s, not dumb like a VT100 or an analog TV tuner. With subthreshold logic it's more like 600 DMIPS of dumb, dumb like a 450 MHz Pentium II (introduced 01998, mainstream around 02000).
In vscode, tab (the key above capslock) is implemented by
counting how many characters are on the current line
and adding 4floor(x/4+1)-x spaces to the current line.

This obviously doesn't work if there are non-ascii characters
that (have to) use a different font and hence having
different widths. Or if you prefer variable-width font,
then a purely ascii document will break tab.

The developers reply on github that this
(characters having different widths) is a frontend thing
and they don't have enough API that can fix this.
But of course since vscode is an open source project
you can always fork it and fix it yourself.

I don't know any other editor that cannot handle tab.
Read my comment history and then tell me my date of birth!
Of all the life we can see only one (or a few for the more generous of you) species has what humans commonly call intelligence.

Intelligence as we commonly refer to it is not a given in evolution. Evolution seeks forward propagation of genetic material, it doesn't seek an "intelligent" state.

It's reasonable to assume there is life elsewhere in the universe. It's quite a bit more of a stretch to assume there is _intelligent_ life elsewhere in the universe, aside from the problem of defining what intelligence is.
There was a rumour some years ago (based on a tweet from a member of staff there) that Panic were working on an email app for mobile devices.

Even now I still hope that rumour is true - a genuinely well designed email app made the usual high standard of polish synonymous with Panic software would be amazing.
If astrology "works" then it makes testable predictions.

Except it wasn't. Inflation was already high and going up by the time the first oil crisis hit. CPI was 5.5% in 1969, 5.8% in 1970, went down to 3.3% by 1972, and was 6.2% in 1973:

https://www.minneapolisfed.org/about-us/monetary-policy/infl...

The first oil crisis didn't hit until October 1973. Look at the month-by-month numbers for 1973:

https://www.inflation.eu/en/inflation-rates/united-states/hi...

The biggest jump was 1.81% in August, 2 months before the oil shock. (Note that this is roughly double the monthly numbers we see now.) There was consistent monthly inflation 0.68%+ from January -> June.

The real reason for the 1970s inflation was Nixon monetizing the debt incurred by our Vietnam hangover, but in true Nixonian fashion, he found an external event to blame it on.

> the Fed doesn't actually set interest rates

It's not clear cut as to what degree interest rates are exogenous inputs that central banks respond to, but the Fed absolutely does set interest rates, allowing some variability between upper and lower bounds.

Today, Fed adjusted interest on reserve balances (IORB, formerly IOER/IORR) to 40bps from 15bps. This rate determines how much interest banks are paid for reserves kept at the Fed. In theory, this rate acts as a floor for the effective fed funds rate. In practice, it's somewhat murkier.

The Fed also sets the discount rate (now 50bps), which is meant to act as a ceiling on rates. Banks are able to borrow money from the Fed's discount window if they need it; however, there's a stigma associated with utilizing this facility. The Fed now maintains standing repo and reverse repo facilities to help banks manage liquidity.

These policies all target the front end of the yield curve, which is where Fed has the most control. To manipulate the long end of the curve, Fed implemented QE. Other central banks (e.g. BoJ) have gone further, using yield curve control to explicitly impact the term structure.

> Instead they purchase and sell treasuries to member banks, such that those banks' balance sheets change in such a way as to make money more or less expensive to trade amongst themselves, which has knock-on effects for consumers.

Repo rates are determined by the market, but are bounded by the rates at Fed's repo facilities. A catch here is that not all market participants have direct access to these. While repo rates may impact behavior, the Fed's intended mechanism is IORB, which (ignoring steepness of the yield curve) influences how attractive banks find loaning money to clients.

> the mechanism that causes banks to have to borrow from each other (to meet the nightly reserve requirement, historically)

This market used to be the Fed Funds market, which consisted of uncollateralized loans between banks. The fed funds market is basically dead, replaced by the repo market, which is collateralized. IIRC, the remaining participants are GSEs like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which can't collect IORB. They sweep their cash to banks and split the interest (which is why IORB can act as a ceiling instead of a floor).
> They're learning how to set boundaries and not let crappy people bother them.

Abusive mindsets parse boundaries as an illness. So saying that someone "seems unwell" simply because they want reasonable boundaries is definitely telling on oneself.
That's exactly why I said "sometimes." It might have been more precise to mean occasionally, but the clear intended meaning was that it was a minority of the time.
The best definition of Congress I’ve ever seen was this:

Why not grow the maintainers group to multiple people? A trusted group of people that share the vision of the project. This way the project becomes a living thing that doesn’t depend on the goodwill of a single person. And that single person would not be overwhelmed.

People are not entitled for support but bringing something out as open source does come with some responsibilities. If not when others fork it the original author gets upset others stealing their project (assumption here).

It's all a matter of degrees. People love to bathe in sunshine, but when someone builds a mirror powerful enough to boil water, it would be wise to keep your head and limbs well out of the focus.
In theory if we were in a simulation I might expect there to be instructions and cheat codes. Maybe even Easter Eggs. Astrology could be instructions. Sorcery could be cheat codes. Now you just need to map them out in a way anyone can use them, thus enabling scientific method assuming the simulation does not circumvent a validation process if and when it recognizes it is being tested or monitored. i.e. the VW test.

There is one theory according to Douglas Adams that if one figures this out the universe will reset and recreate itself in a much more complex manor. There are other theories that this has already occurred.

No, it does not.
MMT doesn't prescribe spending to curb inflation; it prescribes taxes.
I have a personal theory that Astrology did actually work to a small degree in ancient times but it worked by coordinating people in a kind of mematic way that was replaced by the active coordination we do now via the internet etc. It didn't have any real supernatural power.
FWIW, the default behavior in Emacs is that tab indents the line to what its heuristics tell it the line should be at, no matter where your cursor is in the line. This is confusing at first, but as long as the heuristic is correct it's pretty nice (but it drives you crazy when the heuristic is wrong for whatever reason).
All value is explanatory, that is, even if it has "intrinsic value" like carbohydrates in ATP in a cell, it is still knowledge instantiated for a resilient purpose (eg to power a cell to replicate its knowledge).

As explanations change, value changes, so anything can be a currency at the level of the individual--in this way, at least for conscious minds, a public monopoly on money is, while possible, morally wrong. It's a form of Marxism.

There's already been a solution the problem of state monopoly on symbolic abstractions for value (money), that started with Bitcoin and has been growing a new global economy since 2009.

> Im pretty suspicious, why does an MIT AI researcher have a youtube channel?

Are you serious?
tbh maybe it should stay like that, it's only an anomaly if you start your timeline at the advent of central banking. Interest rates on deposits are a purely mathematical fiction, creating no new value. If people would like to see their old tired moneys sprout new baby moneys out of thin air, they should convert their savings into capital, and effectively invest in productive enterprise. Any capital gain then is by market consensus that new value has been created by your investment in that enterprise.
Or just bribe lawmakers at every level of government so you can keep increasing prices while worsening your product, using the funds from your captive audience to preemptively destroy every upstart challenger.

Y'all are talking about possibly three different things.

"Source available" does not mean anything about a license at all. It literally just means the source is available... to someone.

Open source generally means it must have a license that allows modifications and derived works. It is more than "source available" it means that a public license to use and redistribute the software is available. "source available" does not necessarily mean you have a free license to use or distribute the software, or modify it and distribute the modifications. "open source" does. The Open Source Institute has tried to standardize a definition. https://opensource.org/osd

"copyleft" is sometimes used to mean something more than some "open source". Richard Stallman has promoted these sense of "copyleft". Like GNU license as opposed to apache. Both are open source -- nobody says apache license isn't open source right? Open source licenses that aren't "copyleft" are sometimes called "permissive". Here's one description of it that will suffice:

> 3. Is the Apache considered copyleft?

> Copyleft licenses require the derivative works or modified versions of existing software to be released under the same license. The Apache License doesn’t have any such requirements. It’s a permissive license. It permits you to release the modified parts of the code under any license of your choice. However, you are required to release all the unmodified parts of the software under the same license (the Apache License).

--https://www.whitesourcesoftware.com/resources/blog/top-10-ap...

So, no, "source available" is definitely not the same thing as "open source" -- all open source may be "source available", but things described as just "source available" usually are not open source. The source might be available to you, but you might not be allowed to use it (at all, or in certain ways) without paying, and you might not be allowed to redistribute derived works.

And "copyleft" is usually used as a subset of "open source", for restrictive/"viral" licenses.

I have no idea what any of this has to do with where this discussion began -- but yes, anything that's open source, copyleft or not, gives you the right to make a variaton of the software, use that variation, and distribute it. I think that is part of the accepted definition of open source. "Source available" software may not give you this right.

I think the problem was/is a generation of inexperienced developers who were brought up on importing packages for padding a number. Thing that always struck me was how easy and free it was to publish.

Kinda fun to imagine a packaging system where you have to pay a very small crypto fee to publish. I'd bet less packages but more useful stuff on the whole.
On Linux you don't need Docker Desktop and and run docker natively without any VMs. FS is managed via overlayfs which provides near native performance.
The man is asking for the opportunity to prove his point. We should listen. Because throughout human history humanity has exiled people who had the crazy idea that the sun was the center of the solar system.

We've been wrong before, and we're likely going to be wrong again.

That the ultimate good desired is better reached by free trade and ideas.

In light of that knowledge that we may be wrong, the best course of action, the safest course of action, is to go ahead and listen to the ideas on the other side.

The best test of truth is the power of the thought to get itself verified by the scientific method.

Those are the ideas that we can safely act upon. Every year, if not every day, we have to wager our salvation upon some prophecy based on imperfect knowledge.

That, at any rate, is the theory of the US constitution itself. It is an experiment, as all life is an experiment.

This looks quite similar to nextdns.io, I am happy to see more offerings in the area of custom DoT/DoH.

Initial reaction: Not a fan of this UX, which seems to be more intent on me installing their app, and hiding information, rather than providing the configuration details up front, or making it easy to get to. The server/settings links only appear when hovering over the row in the table. I'd rather the information or links to it are presented up front.
One dentist bringing in $1.4 million per year, before he started the fraud/malpractise?

I like good website design and that "good design" evolves every year. But how many hours have been spent tweaking fonts in the English language by how many brilliant and creative people?

I wish we could all save each other the time, by agreeing to use a single font in a dozen iterations (e.g. "Universal Serif" vs "Universal Sans" vs. "Universal Fixed Width", like Noto or whatever)

It should be a social imposition to use a different font.

Like: yes, you can do it and people do, but keep in mind you're exercising your right to be creative at the expense of everybody's comfort/convenience, in the same way as a busker on the subway.

If you're very good at what you're doing then you might be brightening everybody's day. But if you're even average at it, you're only annoying people and they will tolerate that annoyance out of social obligation, not because they like it.

That would save everybody the hours, days, and sometimes weeks of picking a font, a keming, a line-spacing, etc, not to mention the annoyance of having to read awkward fonts.

> Concretely, our approach starts with collecting and steel-manning the key claims made for web3 through conscious, critical and open dialog with a diverse set of experts.

This is something that is desperately needed. More often than not I try to assess bold claims like "Blockchains will solve X". I try to follow the thought process of these claims and arrive at the solution: "Blockchains will most likely NOT solve X". The first comment to that is usually: "It was never supposed to solve X it is rather about Y which is loosely related to X".

There is no way to have a proper debate if one side if flip flopping about claims.

But doesn’t the Fed still pay on reserves held? Even if it’s not required, the Fed increasing the rate paid on reserves would put upward pressure on other rates, otherwise banks would just take the IORB rate.
