You don’t just drop dead of cancer. There is an extensive treatment process involved which is rather expensive and not guaranteed to work. So this argument doesn’t really hold.
A centralized exchange provides too much control over how fiat currency becomes cryptocurrency: a single agent has control, can set policies, and the main criticisms of Professor Holloway apply. The problems with Mt. Gox illustrate the problems and dangers of a poorly run centralized exchange. You are right about the dangers of decentralization. The open question for me is will the decentralized technology mature to the point that exploits are handled as part of the DAO instead of requiring a fork. If a fork is always required, then you are right, decentralization will always require some level of centralized governance. If a fork is no longer required to handle exploits, then it may be possible for a service to be truly self-run. The jury is still out and so far, as you point out and Galloway calls out, it is not looking good.

I think that depends what is baked in...using an algorithm to seek things one actually explicitly ask for/configs for, versus something that gets more oblique and "predictive" or makes decisions FOR you...let's give the code a look and decide after we actually scrutinize it, rather than just assume it's reimplementing the same problems again.

Ultimately, Vitess is good so any argument that concludes that it must be bad is not using evidence.
According to the article, that isn't the main problem that people have:

"Overall, 23 million people said that using cash made them feel more in control of their finances. Two-thirds were concerned about fraud when making payments and 57pc were concerned about privacy."

The rest of the article, if I'm reading it right, makes it clear that "in control" is meant in the sense of "to be on top of it", rather than a distrust of banks or the government.
> how deluded must one be to think court cases, census categories, and obscure writings by sociology professors, are better determinants of ethnicity than genetically measurable kinship?

Cause asimilation is a thing. And in fact you or your kids can become other ethnicity. German family who moved and became French. Czechs who moved and their kids became Hungarians. Hungarians who moved and became German. In all those case, no one knows or cares about origin. None of that is rare. Whole areas were assimilated into larger groups, their ethnicity changing over time (yes, pretty often it happened by force).

The latter is literally what Putin is trying to achieve in Ukraine - make it Russia and suppress existence of that Ukrainian ethnicity.

Ethnicity is not just or purely blood. That is why the sociology professors are better determinants if they actually studied that thing. Cause at least they know it is more complicated then just "genetical origin". When you go by genetic only, it is more of race then ethnicity.
I believe, by "Design everything you can to be declarative" runjake is talking about is above creating good abstractions that satisfy a particular use case, abstracting the user from the implementation details.

Wikipedia defines Declaration programming as "In computer science, declarative programming is a programming paradigm—a style of building the structure and elements of computer programs—that expresses the logic of a computation without describing its control flow." [1]

By decoupling a user from the low level imperative understanding of the system and focusing on the high level abstractions, if the interface is well designed, it enables the user to think at a higher level of abstraction and expands their boundaries in expressing what they want to achieve using the higher level constructs.

One of the most famous declarative interface is "React.JS" which allows to think at the level of the "components" [2], while in acuity, it's abstracting the DOM from the user as a virtual DOM [3] level and performing reconciliation[4] internally for rendering to the actual DOM. But, as an end use, they don't really have to think about these implementation details and can just work with the "components" abstraction.

Most user interfaces I have seen are abstracted in a declarative / markup language. The most famous declarative interface is SQL.

In relation, I would also recommend reading this wonderful article about leaky abstractions by Joel Spolsky to understand the flipside of abstractions, in general: https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2002/11/11/the-law-of-leaky-a...

"I said nothing about Romanian immigrants"

Your comment was a non-sequitur: the person you were replying to mentioned Romanian beggars in the context of cash in the UK, but you were so pleased to have a chance to be insulted on the behalf of other people, you started talking about homeless people in Australia: something that has nothing to do with the point being made.

The comment doesn't mention metro.co.uk at all, so I don't know where you got that from, but if you think an article is poor you need to explain why.

Dylan16707 has already explained why you're just wrong about this case. The guy whose comment is now flagged and dead is correct about what's happened in the UK, and this is well known there so the fact that you think you know the country well may be wrong: many beggars on the street aren't "normal" beggars who are there for the reasons you'd expect. As he says, the overwhelming majority are not homeless.

The HN community struggles very badly when people post non-progressive facts, this is clearly one of them. If you're someone who flagged and killed the above comment about Romanian beggars, shame on you.
EU regulation states that digitally purchased subscriptions must be able to be cancelled digitally.

There is also nothing in the law that prevents developers from asking a higher price for Apple's payment system if that's what you prefer. If you want to pay the additional 25% for your convenience, then you're free to do so. Apple is the one taking they freedom away from you in this draft, adding a rule that developers can no longer use Apple Pay if they choose for an alternative payment provider.

Apple is free to not handle payments for an app if they don't want to, but if you're mad as a user, be mad at Apple. I think everyone agrees that there's a real benefit to Apple Pay, and if you're willing to pay for that benefit you definitely should.
Merely having a bank account can in some instance trigger FATCA report, depending on where you open it. This opens up further intrusions to your privacy. I do not know if any foreign nations have an analogue of this.

I'm in my 30's and am in the same boat. A lot of my older colleagues and mentors are over 50 and won't use this service because half their network is excluded.

The most toxic people on Nextdoor and Facebook are over 60, are just a little bit racist as old people are, and haven't learned the social norms of internet use.

What counts as “remote access”? Another device authenticated to Wi-Fi? Another device anywhere on the internet, with knowledge of the device ID? Another device anywhere on the internet with knowledge of email address?

These are vastly different criticality levels.

All the talk of IOCtl and assembly/bytes in the in the ButDefender report implies “another device on the Wi-Fi”, but I know wyze cams can be viewed over-the-Internet, ostensibly proxied via Wyze’s own servers, so maybe not?

Various eye conditions can cause binocular vision issues. People can be unaware of a mild condition. They can have 20/20 vision. Have you taken any binocular vision tests? Eg https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worth_4_dot_test

It’s why I can’t see stereograms. In normal vision my brain gives up. I only see through my left eye. The neurological strain of convergence is over a threshold and my brain decides to just use one eye. If I cover my left eye, then I see through my right eye. It’s particularly annoying as my left eye has worse vision, with two other later developed conditions.

A small grace is that I believe it improves my photography. People say I have a “good eye”. Ironic. You may have noticed people often squint, close an eye, or tilt their head when framing. This is to disturb depth perception and better predict a 2D rendering. It’s just how I see.

I’m also very clumsy. Maybe that’s why. It’s hard to evaluate causation.

Get your eyes tested for this …
Over here in Germany, when you ask for a decongestant, you usually get Xylometazolin as a spray. As I understand, that's both more effective and has fewer side effects (due to being local). You can also get pseudoephedrine, but I don't think it's as commonly used as these nasal sprays.

Is that not an option in the US?
I remember meeting Sasha at a lecture he gave at UC San Diego. He was around 78 and looked like Santa Claus with the big white beard.

Anne was there, too. I talked with her afterwards and she was so kind, sharing stories about their last weekend in Barcelona and the power of a mushroom trip combined with Gaudi’s architectural works and sculptures.

Your screen likely has gotten better in ways that necessarily use more memory: more pixels, more bit depth means larger pictures, larger font caches (because of larger characters and anti-aliasing), etc.

The pages you look at also have gotten ‘better’ in ways that necessarily use more memory. I don’t think you regularly loaded megabytes of JavaScript.

Finally, your browser usage likely has gotten ‘better’ in ways that necessarily use more memory. I guess you have more tabs open than you ever had in that 64 MiB.
Pair programming for me works best on complex issues I, or others, have already failed at. Usually its a short term endevour (minutes), ive only done (hours) of pairing in extreme circumstances either during PoCs or prod issues.

Re data privacy, as of last summer in the UK we had to opt out of data sharing of our NHS records with third parties. I am conflicted about this because as you suggested, large amounts of data could be beneficial for things like statistical analysis and machine learning to help medical research.

Umm. Actually, as far as I know, that's completely false. What you're describing is a bad way to train your body. If you're failing reps, you're training your body to fail. I.e. "one more rep" culture is misguided. You don't want stress or exhaustion hormones in your system. If your goal is enhancing your body, that is. Looking at my notes, my source is Pavel Tsatsouline #1399 episode on Joe Rogan's podcast. If you can get a hold of that podcast, it's very informative.

China's “New IP” proposal to replace TCP/IP has a “shut up command” (2020)
First, because `[R io.Reader]` is an awful way to spell "force devirtualization". It's not explicit about what it means, and it's not derivable from first principles like Go's other odd spellings, e.g. `interface{}` or `var _ Reader = T{}`, are.

Second, it doesn't really promise to devirtualize it. If what I have is a variable of type `io.ReadCloser` - not just implementing it, but already boxed - it's not going to be able to unbox it for me.

Third, if that was all or even primarily what we wanted out of generics it would've been much better to spend the past two years hacking on the inliner and other parts of the compiler to improve devirtualization.

I don't think it would be awful to fix the unncessary pointer indirection (which looks like it's already happened), but I don't want 10x or even 2x longer compile times just because someone is trying to get the compiler to avoid boxing. It's a tradeoff, vs. e.g. spending that time simplifying methods to get the inliner to approve of them, which is win/win.

I fell in the Magic Eye rabbit hole when I was 6-7, and spent so much time on it that I can now make the images pop in ~2-3 seconds, even 20 years later. I could also stare at them for hours without significant fatigue, as once you find the correct alignment, your brain will "lock" into the new perspective and you can totally relax your eyes.

One side effect I've noticed is that I have a really hard time looking at/focusing on geometric repetitive patterns. I will have the same effect as with Stereograms, namely that if my focus on the object is not close to perfect, the double image I see will have a tendency to really easily "lock" into the next alignment, rendering depth perception close to useless (even tho it's kinda fun/trippy to look at).
In the US it will be more of an "economic"-oriented change. I already encounter businesses once in a while that don't take cash, and rely entirely on a payment processor like Stripe or even Venmo.
