> If a math wiz can ace their math class without studying I'd question why they're not taking a harder math class. Alternately if the math wiz want to focus more on literature (or whatever else) this semester wouldn't it more efficient to skip the math class entirely? ... I can't fathom why anyone would waste so much of their own time and money on a class that isn't going to teach them anything.

I agree, but unfortunately you can't just test out of required classes much of the time.
Obviously the paying to watch a movie concept is outdated.
I always wondered who pays for a streaming service when you can't watch the movies or series once your subscription expires.
I have a new personal policy:

I don't read anything that refers to "blockchain" the way Apple refers to "iPhone". I don't know what the term for it is but they always do it. "With iPhone, you can enjoy being smug and superior in 8K!"

Anyways as soon as I see that sort of corporate newspeak I immediately close the tab.

It makes me a lot happier.

You repeat yourself sir
One could make the same argument of any computer system where the security wasn't as tight as one could hope.

"But judge, they never patched their $software to the latest version, so technically the software allowed me to dump the contents of the IMAP server"

Intents matter. If you commit a crime ("Stealing" is a crime), it doesn't matter if you did so via software, contracts, smart contracts, blockchain or else. A crime is a crime is a crime.
Batman, Turkey
The FCRA was designed to prevent this kind of thing. I wonder how they get around it?
In the US, we have a history of what happens when citizens were wronged and there are no laws or enforcement of laws to help them: Vigilantism. And lemme say right off the bat, it's a pretty bad system. Look up "3-7-77" sometime.

I, personally, would prefer minor political abuse instead of citizen enforcement of "rights" in the absence of laws or enforcement of those laws. Because the latter quickly gives lie to the "governments have a monopoly on force" catechism.
One of the benefits of PHP is the single page idea, where the file system directly matches the URL structure.

For quick and dirty projects I’ve always wondered what a Python version would look like.

Maybe Jinja2 pages, a place to define extra code to be run or a custom ninja tag for longer sections of Python, and a binary to launch the whole thing as a server?
Next.js et all really lit a fire under React in this area. Glad to see React moving in that direction.
They think that government is tyranny, therefore lack of government is freedom. Yes, they are dumb as hell.
Don't forget we now have to "price in" occasional years long eviction moratoriums.
One meaning, per my earlier comment, but that doesn't imply exactly one permutation for the folding and storage of a lawn mower. Anyway, this is not a very interesting topic, so I'll see myself out.
With all due respect, you're wrong. If Caddy is serving any files, the user explicitly enabled that functionality. And when enabled, it only serves files within the root directory specified by the user, or the current working directory, and the docs are very clear about this: https://caddyserver.com/docs/modules/http.handlers.file_serv...
That would, depending on implementation, either have limited impact (if it only applied in the context of a commercial relationship), or destroy FOSS (if it didn't).
Subscriptions and ads have gone together like peanut butter and jelly since the print age.

If you subscribe to The New York Times or Cosmopolitan you have qualified yourself as being interested in the subject, attached to the brand, and not hopelessly penurious. An advertiser would rather pay to get a message in front of a paid subscriber rather than anyone else.
> with most computations it would have to carry out the whole thing in one go

Is there a way to allow models to say "let me think about this some more"? With language models like GPT-3 you emit one token per inference iteration, with its previous output fed back in as input/state. Can models opt out of providing a token, but still update state? That would allow it to break up the computation into discrete steps.
“Someone needs to do something about the legal-industrial complex.”

That’s where diversity would help a lot. Congress should be more diverse in terms of background. Laws should be made by people with backgrounds in a variety of professions and not just lawyers and businesspeople as it’s in congress right now. It’s no surprise that they crank out laws that appeal to people with their backgrounds.
> a unscrupulous teacher could punish or reward a student by 'making up' any grade they feel like and the student has no recourse if they disagree with the grade

Surely the second assessor would catch that though? Or the external examiner's spot-checking?
Genuine question: How stoppable is "Web3?" Which may be to say -- what is more likely: All the big money idiots come to their senses, or "Web3" definitely happens in some form that has some, but not all, of the stupid weeded out of it?

This is probably a million dollar question, no?
Aren't there methods of rolling back transactions in the traditional banking system though? And additional validations on larger volume transactions?
Unlike traditional banks with their burdensome regulations and gate-keepers, the permissionless, decentralized nature of the blockchain means that they can't get the money back.
I found this 1960s US Army training film to be hilarious (and helpful): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2X81RQtErqg

Its very little to do with Morse Code itself, and more to do with "morse code mindset". Maybe something to watch before you begin your studies.

There's enough simple examples in the film that it "shows you how to learn". Like, how the "ear" thing and "rhythm" is actually really easy for your brain to work with.
Mutilate your thirst
Yup. The value from people being able to make and find feature requests and vote on them far outweigh the value of a "secret roadmap".

We've definitely guided large chunks of our development effort from this issues list.
LiquiFi (YC W22 – Carta for Web3) is hiring engineers
It would be much different outcome that would probably lead to recovering the money.
It's not actually a quantum theory, just a quantum approach. We use simplifying computational models for both black holes and large (or high energy, or just weird) quantum systems, and these researchers think they found success porting over some of those techniques. We really, really want spacetime to behave like quantum fields do, but in general it just behaves completely differently. In this particular instance though, those differences don't matter enough to make the tools of QFT totally useless. Quantum physicists spend a lot of time integrating lots and lots of tiny effects that may or may not interact with each other in strange ways, which is handy experience for working with colliding black holes. Or rather, solving a subproblem coming from certain simplifying techniques.
YC has funded a company building supersonic passenger jets (https://boomsupersonic.com/) and underwater mining robots (https://impossiblemining.com/), I don't think “too ambitious” is a problem for them if you can convince them that you're capable of delivering.
No amount of concurrency on a single core can equal the performance of multiple cores.
I am blaming the developers.

Perhaps this is not a popular view, but this "blameless" culture is fine and good when it's a random service going down for 15 minutes and you're trying to collaborate and prevent it from happening again.

There must be limits though. If you're handling that amount of money in a bank and you fuck it up like this, your ass is on the line, together with the ones who incentivized you to move fast and break things. This should be no different.
Just because you can, doesn't mean that you should. For some things it's just better to use a rules-based engine that is always correct, rather than a heuristics based algorithm that gives answers that are merely close.
Anyone who knows anything about human systems knows that that's the end point: We'll be right back to banking as it is today, except with less efficiency and a ton of wasted time and technology that could have been spent making the current systems better.
The real fix is to require a warrant without these loopholes. Judges can be available on a moment's notice for these sorts of issues.
Not true in the EU, we got scammed into making a bank transfer from Germany to Belgium for a bicycle that never arrived. We contacted the police and bank with all the details, and had to pay our bank about 40 euros to ask the scammer if they would refund the money, they said no and that was it. EU banking laws protected them. On the plus side the website appears to be gone now.
Or you just keep it in monero indefinitely :)

It is possible to run `NetSurf` in BoxedWine, but BoxedWine doesn't currently have network support. Also v86 has network support via a WebSocket proxy, so you might be able to get a browser going in there.

I get your frustration: this piece is a bit "corporate gonzo", to say the least, and I got pretty bored because I prefer hard information and a higher density of it as well. Moreover, if I want gonzo, there are people who do it a whole lot better and more entertainingly[0].

Anyway, beyond the fact that it's a cheap and incoherent attempt to capitalise on the Web3 hype train, I'm also vaguely irked that they confuse Web3, with Web 3.0 - the latter being Tim Berners-Lee's vision of the next iteration of the web (worth searching for if you're interested).

I don't know that I'd say Terminusdb should fire the author, but they should probably take the post down because, honestly, it's not useful and is just contributing to the already deafening noise about Web3.

[0] Actually, now that I think about it, it's incoherent enough that I wonder if it was perhaps generated by GPT-3 or a similar AI, which would possibly mean the whole thing is intended as some sort of joke. Obviously just a hypothesis.
That is far from universal though. The apartments I've lived in have been essentially soundproof, and it isn't just a function of age -- one built in 1910 and the other built in 2020. I never hear my neighbors, even when they are being loud.

How much space constitutes "cramped" in your view? My current apartment isn't that much smaller than the suburban house I used to live in, and that house had rooms that were almost never used.

I don't understand your point. Most people including me don't engage in daily ongoing interventions to avoid COVID-19. Everyone can expect to get infected with SARS-CoV-2 (probably multiple times) but only a subset of those infections will cause clinically significant COVID-19 symptoms.

Good lifestyle choices can usually prevent type-2 diabetes, but prevention is different from curing an existing condition. That's just medical reality and changing terminology wouldn't impact that.

The zinc deficiency hypothesis is interesting but remains unproven, and can't possibly explain large increases in diabetes. This would be a good area for further research.
In the '90s, there was a joke: What's the difference between Windows and viruses? Viruses do something.
Yeah I tend to separate empathy (being able to put yourself in another's shoes and feel what they're feeling) and "other-oriented-ness". Having empathy means you understand what the driver behind you at the fast food restaurant is feeling emotionally if you take too long at the window. Being other-oriented is feeling stressed and wanting to move forward before you've completely checked your order, because you don't want the driver behind you to feel upset by your taking too long.

AI for Medicine Is Overhyped
In high school in Italy (at least where I was from) your final grade was basically decided based on the teacher’s belief of how well you mastered the class.

For example:

In Latin class (chronologically) I had a 6, a bunch of 5s, and a couple of 4s. Finally I put a bunch of effort and got a couple of 7s in an oral and a written exam.

Pass was a 6, and the teacher gave me a 6. A 6 was really where I stood in the class (I had learned the subject by the time I got the 7s). My average, though, was a 5 something - a fail.

The system is open for abuse, but I always thought it made more sense than “earning” points towards an A. For starters the material can be made much more difficult since the kids wont blow their final grade in the first few months. I always liked classes with weighty exams.
So, if someone could explain this to me, I don't understand all the particulars.

From the article -

The attacker used hacked private keys in order to forge fake withdrawals.

The validator key scheme is set up to be decentralized so that it limits an attack vector, similar to this one, but the attacker found a backdoor through our gas-free RPC node, which they abused to get the signature for the Axie DAO validator.

Can someone explain what happened here? How were they storing the keys in such a way that they were accessible from the internet? Namely, is this a problem with how crypto is designed itself, did they mishandle their architecture (so presumably if they organized their containers in another way then a hacker wouldn't have access), or did they just put the keys in a file that said KEYS.pem with open access?

Does this have implications for blockchain as a whole or was this company just dumb? Ideally, you shouldn't hold 650 million in one wallet, but if the promise of crypto is supposed to be secure then it shouldn't matter.

PS:

If anyone would loan me 650 million dollars I promise not to lose it and would take only a small percentage of the total to pay rent and continue to exist.
I'm not against these types of documents in theory... I can see the use. But anecdotally, the two coworkers who've provided me with 'How to Work with Me' docs have been the most difficult, overly detailed micromanagers that I've interacted with. And on the other hand, all of the great colleagues I've worked with have just been personable, talented people who didn't come with an operating manual.
That’s not dedicated.
Yes, but it's an open question how successfully and how frequently they catch the bad guys.
How to Get Your Audience’s Attention on Social Media
Why do you think Lisp never gained significant popularity?

I think I understand why certain people really like Lisp -- I have enough experience with enough programming languages to understand the appeal. But I also believe it's unappealing to the majority and I don't think that's a controversial stance. It's not a simple matter of syntax -- I don't think it can be fundamentally still be Lisp and be broadly appealing.
That stinks. I used to work for a major public utility, and it was the complete opposite. Mandatory drills for all sorts of contingencies, fully stocked disaster cabinets on every floor, influenza vaccines offered onsite for free, heck they even had a pandemic ops center where they could lock in a bunch of healthy people to keep the lights on while everyone else has the plague. We made videos on how to lift things without getting hurt — and this was the infosec group! The company even did stuff like give out small free flashlights,

At the time it was a little tiresome, but after the fact I appreciate the time and resources spent on it.

If they're not required to directly list that information, is there some indirect way to acquire it?

Okay hear me out:

Ycombinator was an unfair advantage back in the day 10ish years ago:

- Incredible mentorship

- Incredible network of angels / alumni

- Incredible location to start a company - almost like a requirement

Today:

- Ok mentorship but most content can be found online

- You literally can connect with anyone through LinkedIn and everyone's email/social is super simple to find - also people are way more eager to meet you than 5-10 years ago

- Literally not a requirement anymore to work from SV to launch something successful!

Is Ycombinator still an unfair advantage in 2022?
That actually sounds like the Diablo 2 skill tree. And that sounds awesome.
Imagine having direct experience with these things, genuinely sharing your hard-earned experience of what works for you in the language you have available to you, and then some third-party who doesn't know anything about you misrepresents your statement and then tells you to "shut the fuck up about mental health problems you don't have."
What would it take to rebalance the allocation ? more than 50% is for economic/finance sector. healthcare, climate is tiny. Is it a lack of ideas ? or problems too hard to solve ?
How do you get around supplying content without ads or some other metric to pay for network usage?

It would be nice if everything was free, but right now everything has a cost associated with it. Whether that's your attention, your data, or outright paying for the service.

To me the better question in regards to Web3, is it necessary to have so many middlemen? That's my issue with it.

Anyone with any part in designing user interfaces seriously needs to commit their section on color to heart:
https://designsystem.digital.gov/design-tokens/color/overvie...

Especially the contrast/magic number discussion. It's crazy how many user interfaces these days blur design elements to where you can't tell were controls are. The recent trend to eliminate window title bars is particularly infuriating, but buttons that don't look like buttons because they blend into the background are another pet peeve - or have light gray on dark gray. Ugh! Contrast serves a purpose!
Suspect an inside job. Axie Infinity is a Ponzi scheme in the collapse stage. Looks like they found an exit strategy so they can blame someone else.

> Electric cars are sort of like gas cars with new motors… but actually, in many ways, much better. They have amazing pickup, the heater comes on instantly, many have extra storage (the “frunk”), there’s no exhaust to stink up your garage.

Hmm. Sorry, but I'm not impressed. Faster acceleration is fun but it doesn't improve the trip from point a to point b. If anything, it could make the ride less comfortable and safe.

The heater coming on instantly is nice, but it's at the cost of mileage whereas in an ICE the heat is free (in that it is otherwise wasted). If you're using the heater it's because you're in cold weather and you will lose significant range because of the battery's lower performance in the cold (to the tune of up to 40%!) or the battery's heaters keeping it in a performant temperature range. I'd call this a trade-off rather than an improvement.

Storage space in some models makes sense. Same with exhaust in garages, if you have a garage and want to idle the car inside it.

However, talking about all this without mentioning the biggest step backwards with electric cars seems pretty disingenuous; this step backwards being the shorter distance electric cars are capable of traveling in the same period of time as ICE vehicles due to their significantly longer refueling times and decreased range in cold weather.
> All of the AXS, RON, and SLP on Ronin are safe right now.

Of course they are. They're worthless.
Because there are people in the world who can wake up and have lost all money they had deposited in a bank. There are people who have to pay 20% transfer fees to move money overseas. There are people who don't have the ability to open a bank account. There are people who can lose all their banked money if their government doesn't like them.

The first world doesn't have these problems.

>That's unnecessarily combative. Are you arguing that refusing to brush your teeth is a reasonable position?

If all you did was explain to them the importance of healthy teeth, then denton-scratch is justified, all you're saying is that the kid cannot be reasoned with because they didn't listen to your explanation. Show them a root canal. Let them talk to the local crackhead. If your kid doesn't already have trauma and they aren't listening, most likely you aren't trying hard enough or aren't creative enough in your approach.
