What about Supreme? or Stone Island? or Common Projects? These brands have value because of the current culture. And they will not have much value once that culture shifts.

People will spend money on status symbols and will continue to for a long time. NFT's (or something else like them) in a world with metaverses will likely become status symbols. Doesn't mean any individual aesthetic NFT has value but the general concept could survive and mirror the trends seen in (expensive) clothing brands.

And the majority of people won't care and will think it's a complete waste of money.

The US military never forbade reporting on bodies returning home. My local paper regularly covered the returning of bodies and funerals of service members.

The military didn’t give the press inside access to the process of returning bodies, unless they agreed not to photograph.

The fact that the military wasn’t allowing members of the press access to events that members of the general public were forbidden from is not censorship.

Heck, the press actually were allowed special access, but only on the condition they not photograph.

Freedom of the press is not the same as privileged access for the press.

And the policy began in the first gulf war, but the second.
For ETL out of Postgres, it is very hard to beat psql. Something as simple as this will happily saturate all your available network, CPU, and disk write. Wrapping it in Python helps you batch it out cleanly.

Wow, this is great! I needed a device like this last week to connect remotely to an old PBX. Ended up setting up a Debian laptop and SSHing into it, then accessing the serial port using tio. I was thinking about getting some pi-adjacent device if I needed to do this long-term, but an ESP32 would be even better.
Sure, Stallman's preferred option is that you use free software and release yours as such accordingly, but I think he'd still prefer you to write your own and release that as proprietary than take free software and bundle it up in a way that takes away the user's freedoms.

> He claims that it protects users, but this leaves out the people who spend the time and effort to develop that software product.

Some things really aren't all positives for everyone. The free software movement prioritises users first. Sometimes this is a negative for the developer's goals. But clearly by the existence of a large amount of free software, there are enough developer's sympathetic to this goal to make it work, and by eliminating those restrictions, I don't see how that's preferable (or even different) to the all rights reserved world.
>The problem with making generalisations is that you're often wrong

Generalisations are like models. They're not necessarily 100% correct or applicable but they can still be useful.
> If builders built buildings the way programmers write programs, then the first woodpecker that came along would destroy civilization.

If builders built buildings the way programmers write programs, we’d have progressed from wattle-and-daub through wood and reinforced concrete to molecular nanotechnology construction in the first two generations of humans building occupied structures.

Bad analogy is bad because programs and buildings aren't remotely similar or comparable.
Even more important: it's value is `false` by default.
Might as well ask the Catholic church to conduct a study into whether God exists. (They are the experts, right?)
I think you demonstrated in your own post why this is such a big deal.

Extensions can certainly deliver this type of functionality in large part, but you have to [run an extension]. You need to ran an extension process (with its additional overhead). You need to make sure Google doesn't swoop-in with breaking changes between manifest versions. Then you have to make sure the extension is permitted in the Web Store, and not removed over something as silly as a detailed description.

By delivering this functionality natively, Brave offers a more reliable and efficient solution to the problem of AMP.
TCP is a bad example because it has become so hard to replace.

SCTP failed to replace TCP for various reasons, such as too many middleboxes filtering ULPs that aren't TCP or UDP, or SCTP being far to rich and complex, or just inertia.

But TCP has had a ton of problems, and while there has been a ton of research into those problems and the solution spaces for them, adopting even hacky solutions into TCP has been difficult. As a result, TCP has gotten complex and bloated over the years without at the same time solving all the problems that a new protocol could solve.

On the plus side, in spite of inhibiting innovation at the transport layer, TCP enabled innovation at the application layer by making the application layer possible at all.

Moving away is and always HAS been the response; the only reason Seattle is a hotbed of real estate activity is because of the huge influx of people over the last 30 years, escaping rising Californian prices. Currently Arizona and Texas are seeing influxes, and there are other areas, too.

Yup, this. I think a big part of this is that Eelco is really only interested in NixOS. Nix is a large community and there are plenty of people that do care about other platforms, so these things do tend to get sorted out. Still, the core devs will choose to avoid short-term, medium-painful transitions for NixOS even at the expense of killing all the other platforms.
Those are scenarios where the bidders are experts who participate in the market every day, which are very different from the home selling market where the average bidder will have participated never, once, or maybe twice in their lives (and be assisted by an agent who is paid for by the other party).
Considering "almost extinct" could mean a single family for multiple generations, that wouldn't be a lot of individuals. Depending on what burial rites they practice, or how their bones get chewed up by wild-life, they'd mostly vanish in the jungle (or even farmland). Even when they are found, they might not get recognized as such immediately or at all.
"Due diligence" - except you can't. Did people in the 1950s know that Submariner watches were going to be a big gain? No. People bought them to wear. Why did Rolex watches persist and gain value, while Bulova watches did not? We can come up with reasons -now-, but in the 1950s you wouldn't know.

Just like with the NFT of the first tweet, 'due diligence' for collectibles is just speculation because there is nothing to base it on. Most investments have cash flow of some sort you can evaluate. Not collectibles. The expected value of every collectible trends negative, since it's a physical thing subject to wear and tear, and most physical things depreciate.

NFTs are worse than collectibles in that the scarcity isn't even of the thing; it's just an artificially created scarcity around "ownership" of an infinite thing. Unprovable ownership, no less.

If you 'invest' in a Rolex, at the end of the day you have a nice watch. If you 'invest' in an NFT, at the end of the day you have a freely available graphic.

In terms of digital goods in video games...yeah; companies have been selling digital goods for their games without NFTs for years. Not sure what NFTs are bringing there.
Tax incentives and corporate subsidies like the ones given to Foxconn are a joke. Corporations usually face zero consequences for violating the terms of these agreements and taxpayers almost never get their money back or get the jobs they were promised. This was just really expensive PR for Foxconn, Scott Walker, and Trump.

This is nothing new, and it's been going on for decades. And the corporations that receive these benefits usually do not need them.
the US economy has been on a continual decline for the last few decades, it's jsut been cleverely masked.

that sounds quite reasonable to me, considering the vast decrease in material living standard in the US for the last several decades. there was an interview with someone who lived through the 70s that was saying a painter back then could afford to buy his own home, have a wife that didn't work and six kids! today, a single painter can barely afford to rent a single bedroom, let alone support a whole family and have a house.
There is nothing to resolve apparently. Someone claiming there is a license violation doesn't mean there is a license violation.

Even if it's true, it just seems to be mislabelled headers and code in tcc and that have been cleaned up in next versions of tcc so just updating the dependency resolve the problem.
This will inevitably happen at some point in the future. And it could be very very ugly, depending on what hardware is compromised.

There is no chance that we can count on IOT manufacturers to pin certificates or to have any motivation whatsoever to focus on security. That is up to the user. So we really need some sort of firewall / antivirus / etc. living on the user end to defend them from this.
I've not used Windows for a long time, but in .exe format it was possible to include additional data at the end of it and read it during program execution. I am relatively certain writing was not possible while the executable was running, but that I guess it could probably be bypassed by a secondary executable that does the writing and re-starts the original. Not as nice, but not sure if anything else can be done. Maybe nicer option would be to always copy the original executable, and spawn the secondary one while writing to the original. The running copy could be keeping data in memory anyway.
I don't know enough to debate the numbers, but if we're making external comparisons, my first question is whether the calculations for Argentina/Guyana have been altered to match the US shadowstat alterations.
It's wild how Western commenters say "we don't know for sure" when it was all public, they just didn't pay attention.

Intergenerational projects are worth pursuing. Those projects require intergenerational value.

Going back to the moon, going to mars, making cities more livable, building Cathedrals, healing cultural trauma, making healthy families, creating better ways of life, enhancing health and lifespan, teaching and learning how the world works, figuring out consciousness, determining the secret to a good life, eliminating pain and creating ideal adventures… that is all possible with enough dedication on a long enough timescale and with enough forward thinking and endurance/adjustment.

I get that ending deprivation in the now is important, but I can’t help but feeling we’ve been sacrificing the future to a decades long hedonic treadmill to satisfy base and immediate needs rather than future oriented striving.
Extensions are a massive security vulnerability. Any time you can accomplish something without opening yourself up to browser extensions is a huge win.

People won't want to hear your comment (myself included) but it's a fair and important point. I've been on the other side so it does resonate with me. I worked for Red Hat at the time when CentOS changed their model and it was amazing how many people were like f*k Red Hat and their greedy money grab[1], I'm switching to <replacement>. Without realizing that the distros that do very little except rebuild Red Hat are only possible because Red Hat makes it possible. They could absolutely kill the clone if they wanted to[2]. To be clear I have nothing against the clones (in fact I use them), I mainly get bothered by people thinking a quality linux distro happens by accident.

[1]: It was a little more complicated than just "money grab": https://freedomben.medium.com/centos-is-not-dead-please-stop...

[2]: Pre-empting the inevitable "but the GPL", Red Hat goes above and beyond the requirements of the GPL and could make it way harder to build. Also a huge important chunk of the distro is BSD/MIT/Apache/etc. Without that the GPL'ed only stuff would never be a feasible distro anyway
You mean the GME fiasco?
Thanks! and no worries. As you say, it was clear from your initial praise that you meant well.
Doesn't sound petty to me.
For the fundamentals, Gaffer on Games has a series referred to as "Networked Physics" that goes over deterministic lockstep simulation in a networked (aka Multiplayer) environment, and input handling[1]. There are also other articles/series on stuff like Reliable UDP instead of TCP which is important for keeping latency low, writing a game loop with variable timestep, and other gamedev fundamentals. Gaffer on Games is a terrific resource.

The series doesn't really get in to doing things like rollback and the like, which would be "beyond fundamentals", as noted by the fact that a lot of AAA games don't even have good rollback net code.

Blizzard folks gave a GDC talk on the Overwatch architecture and their rollback implementation that is good for a conceptual discussion[2]

Here's a Gist w/ some rollback net code pseudocode that got posted in a gamedev subreddit once that I bookmarked but didn't read myself[3]

> The advantages are clear; the speed of hypersonic missiles makes all current anti-missile systems (limited as they already are,) obsolete

But if two Neptune cruise missiles are all that was needed to destroy one of Russia's cruisers (with some of Russia's latest anti-missile CRAMs / anti-missile RADARs), why should the USA develop hypersonic missiles?

That's the thing. Ukraine just showed that regular ol' cruise missiles are still sufficient to destroy Russian warships. There's no point making an "unbeatable hypersonic missile" if the Russian equipment/training can't even beat a regular-ol cruise missile.

------

In contrast, Russia / China *MUST* create hypersonic missiles, because USA's CRAMs and USA's defense systems have proven to defeat subsonic and even supersonic missiles.

USA should have hypersonic missiles ready just in case Russia/China suddenly shows off world-class missile defense systems. But... under the current estimations, regular old cruise missiles / Tomahawks / Harpoons remain an efficient weapon, and aren't obsolete yet.

I'm sure that Russia / China will eventually develop adequate missile-defense systems. But this Moskva sinking event (especially a Flagship / cruiser) proves that the Russians don't have an adequate defense yet vs a cruise missile, let alone a cruise missile salvo.
Well you made me Google it Rolex was founded in 1905, that is quite a few culture shifts coming and going...we can safely call it durable.

Curiosity Depends on What You Already Know (2016)
That's actually not been a problem for me. I don't know whether I have a touch of ADHD or I'm a bit on the autism spectrum, but being able to seriously focus on things hasn't really been an issue for me. The real issue are distractions - including my wife who I love hanging out with. She's been traveling a lot, so I've had more time to spend hours practicing my guitar scales and fingerings, and watching a TON of youtube guitar videos.
Extraordinary claims need extraordinary evidence. Extant Hominids are somewhat more likely than real leprechauns...

The existence of those eyewitness accounts is not positive evidence, but rather constitutes a lack of negative evidence. If tens of thousands of people going through those forests all said "nothing there", then that would be negative evidence.
> That's because shadow stats is a joke. If you adjust US GDP using their inflation figures, you'd find that the US economy has been on a continual decline for the past few decades.

Today families need dual incomes just to purchase a modest home and carry health insurance. How is this not a decline in standard of living from a few decades ago?

Where's our new airports? New rail transit systems? New infrastructure? Everything in this country is old and getting older.
Not true. I don't have and have never owned an Insteon hub. I have no reliance on anything from Insteon in the sky. I have an ISY-994i which controls all of my Insteon gear.

My switches don't communicate with the outside world and as long as I have a functional PLM connected to the ISY, I'll be able to control them. There are probably ways to do that without a PLM too.

I will likely move to something else soonish though, likely Lutron. But I want to be clear that for those who have Insteon and have never relied on the Insteon hub, they can keep chugging along for now.
Your argument is weak in that it could have been invoked for several previous inventions: ATMs replacing cashiers, search engines replacing librarians and so on.

It's the opposite, worked like charm. Your main voting base, powerful people, developers, banks want price of properties to increase.

Big Myths Employers Are Using to Force “Return to Office”
Kudos to Brave - they're a sometimes weird actor, but some of their initiatives are commendable, and they often do what Mozilla should have, but didn't.

I rarely end up in AMP pages on my mobile, but when it happens I immediately feel like I stepped on a turd, and promptly backtrack / close the tab before it hijacks my back button, half the screen, standard controls (including doing something weird to scrolling) and other unpleasantries like banners whose "x" somehow overlaps my browser's bars, and are therefore out of reach (and said browser bars somehow do NOT autohide when scrolling, unlike on normal pages)

Getting AMP results from Google search has been one of the drivers leading me to switch to DDG, so congrats Google, one less customer.
This bothers me greatly too and is my biggest gripe. I understand it's hard to build something like amp without that, but I think it will have unfortunate reverberations for many years to come. Especially if at some point Google pulls the plug on Amp. Will all those amp links suddenly die?
Why does the title here omit the word "failure" from "heart failure patients"?

This is a very narrow clinical result, and not evidence pro or con in the general sodium debate.
But with even a small amount of leverage, you'd be completely wiped out. With 2x leverage and a 50% drop in the asset price, you're broke: there is no "just ride it out."

The stock market is one thing, but anyone with a mortgage is leveraged to the tits, which is why real estate is so cyclical and the downturns can be so devastating.
