There are times when a conversation that’s important to some participants spontaneously starts in chat and it’s too disruptive to ask less interested (but important) participants to “move it to email.” Suggesting that might cause the conversation to fizzle out which the more interested parties can’t afford.

Apple has fooled you. iMessage is not end-to-end encrypted as advertised. If you use iCloud backups then all your messages can be read by Apple and by extension law enforcement. If you decide not to use the only allowed cloud backup option for iPhones, then your messages can still be read by Apple on the other end when your friends have iCloud backups enabled. Apple has not end-to-end encrypted iCloud backups of iMessage at the explicit request of the FBI. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-apple-fbi-icloud-exclusiv...

I'm saying something much stronger than that! Most people, at some point within the past one year, had total savings of zero or less. Most people do not have more than a year of savings, because they haven't spent more than a year saving.

There's a problem with your reasoning though, the Moskva was built/used as a seaborne S-300 plattform. Air denial is a big part of Soviet/russian doctrine and that role fits very well within the Russian strategy (limiting NATO from what they consider "their" territory i.e the Black sea and the Baltics)

This case is not a PR stunt. This is a test case that was purposely picked to test the law. This is quite common to find boundaries of any law and see if there is an opening for a commercial success.

This is a landmark case that will be referenced for quite some time and have significant impact on future cases around production with the aid of tools.

I like your analogy on the digital camera, but this is really not limited to this one case. For instance the case of monkey's selfie [0] is quite well known and touches on similar questions. This is obviously not a tool, nor object but it's also not a human.

We will have to find out where the boundaries lie between the tool is an aid and the tool is the source of creativity.

I went round about a lot. Started with windows phone back when it had the honeycomb ui. Stuck with it until I moved to Singapore where Microsoft announced a new phone and didn’t release it anywhere except a few countries.

From there I went to iPhone 4 and had so many issues. So I went to the Note 4 and initially I loved it. But android got slower and slower so after 6 months I reset the phone and didn’t install anything. It got slower and slower and all I used was phone text and browser.

But I refused to go back to Apple.

I did a few hours of work for a friend fixing something and was complaining about my phone being slow so he bought me an iPhone 6 max as payment.

I was annoyed at first but it was so fast… and I’ve stuck with iPhone since and don’t regret it. Best thing ever moving over to iPhone.
I don't think salt is bad for you.
Does participation in a smart contract imply any kind of legal agreement? You're essentially interacting with an api/bot that's being hosted by whatever blockchain community at large. Anybody can publish anything, and any unrelated parties can interact with it.

Here's a thought experiment for you.

If I were to publish a public webpage where you entered a routing number into a textbox and money was immediately transferred from my account to the specified account for the purpose of sending money to a friend of mine, but somebody else found the website and entered their routing number and drained my account. Would I have legal recourse?

This is essentially the Parity wallet exploit. The API was only slightly more complicated than the example above, initWallet().

It's an interesting paradigm shift. If contracts are automatically enforced, what features of the existing legal system are obsolete? If monetary/financial contracts are completely logically unambiguous in their execution and there is no need to appeal to a designated wielder of physical force to ensure their execution...

I think that notion, which sounds unrealistic to me, is what appeals to lot of crypto absolutists. It fails in a lot of the ways that smart contracts currently struggle, how to computationally, and in an unbiased way, relate crypto to the world outside of the blockchain. A good example of this is oracles, which are so flimsy in so many situations.

As you said we don't exist on the blockchain, the physical world doesn't exist on the blockchain, so how can we do away with our existing systems for mediating disputes, determining intent etc?
"Well I was more imagining light infantry operations"

People need fuel within 24 hours at a minimum. LI need more than most because they need to move fast. I was a once a Devon and Dorset Light Infantryman (cadet). The DnDs used to have a mad pace - 180 per minute. We could get there as required and then get cut down by a single machine gun. That's old school stuff and the world has moved on.
You might be interested in an AI psychotherapy session.

The old Eliza programs attempted to recreate Rogerian psychotherapy. I can imagine it sorta kinda being useful, but it was old tech and not all that great. There were a lot of obvious flaws, but some people really liked it.

But now we have AGP which is considerably better, and can emulate speaking/writing styles much more accurately and conversationally. So Eliza done that way might be quite good.

There are a few examples, but this one you might find interesting in that vein: https://join.kokocares.org/koko-referral?source=website
> You are confusing the past for what the future is going to be

Musk sued to gain control of Tesla in 2002.

He's been talking and rambling about the future™ for 20 years now. 20 years, all while pocketing billions of government money.

Now you are saying 2040, next year you'll say 2050, the year after that 2060.

In the meantime he's getting paid hundreds of billions of dollars right now, not in the future™. It's typical of cults to extract money from believers right now in order to compensate the cult leader for work that he will complete 30 or 40 years into the future™.

It's a scam. Amazon was built in 20 years and it also needed to deal with building factories in the real world, unions, logistics etc. Did so without govt. money and without constant pumps and equity raises. It's there selling 400B dollars worth of products every year.

The guy who built it stepped down and the company is still there because its so solid that it can stand alone now. You know as well as I that if Musk OD's on one of his drugs of choice the whole scheme would collapse because the cult only has a reason to exist as long as the cult leader is there to show the way forward ....into the future™
> there are self-interpretations that seem pretty self-destructive

That's the counter argument to your previous assertion. A self-interpretation is wrong if it destroys the self. By destroying the interpreter (the self), the interpretation becomes an unfalsifiable claim.
Well, we have laws for that over here, so ours are gonna respect it.
The stock doesn't need to trade on market share. Look at profits. Real $$ and growth of those real $$.

$17B in Q1. With 80% YoY growth, and new factories able to supply the growing demand, it is within reason to expect $30B profit in Q4 (or Q1 2022 if you'd prefer). They are trading at 10x multiple on annual PROFIT.

Toyota's profit last quarter was $6.8B with a market cap of $280B, and not growing. So they have annual profit of $28B, also trading at 10x multiple on annual profit.

Makes tesla look like a good buy to me.
No kidding. I still kick myself for a few things I bought with these types of apps (they become unusable). Ugh, you really need to buy from major vendors. Ie, a dash cam with a partial app from 6 years ago never update, lots of bugs. IoT is horrible as well. HVAC I got luckyish so far by going with Samsung (app works OK in my view).
There ought to be penaltues for negligebce causing damage to you
I watched GamersNexus' 5800X3D review a few days ago, and the thing that stood out to me was their direct measurement of power draw on the 12V rail; it included a 120W result for the 5950X, and 240W (!) for the 12900KS. These parts are pretty comparable for the workloads I care about (compilation, mostly) but Intel's best part does the same job in roughly the same amount of time, for more money and twice the power draw. Is there something I'm missing, before I just buy the AMD for an upgrade?
Frankly, I'm a bit tired of these proposals transmit power by microwaves back to earth, especially so when frequencies such as 10GHz are either proposed or are used as test frequencies.

Do these people actually realize the likelihood of interference to RF and Microwave bands from potential intermodulation products that they'd cause? It would be an environmental disaster much worse than Musk's light-radiating satellites. I'd reckon that huge swathes of radio spectrum users includibg radio astronomers would be up in arms at such an outrageous proposal.

I've nothing in principle against such a proposal but it needs to be done in a part of the spectrum that will not cause interference to communications - and that will take considerable research and planning. For instance in the infrared or THz spectrum but even then we'd need to take great care for many reasons. (Recently, I've heard of experiments to detect neutrinos in the THz spectrum so that may also be ruled out).

I've strong thoughts about the inappropriate funding of this research in the 10GHz spectrum but I'll refrain from further comment for the moment.

Just let's say I've insufficient adjectives in my magazine to ensure a knockout.
I'm sorry, but this is not an evidence of "incinerating bodies". I certainly believe that they are committing atrocities, but there is no proof that they are using mobile crematoriums for incinerating bodies.

It's fallacious when dealing with logical entities. Humans aren't logical entities.
I'm also not convinced that they're even out of Far-field. That looks like a roughly 5m dish, which at 10GHz is still in the radiating near field at 1km. I wouldn't be surprised if the main lobe is entirely incident on receiving aperture. That's a neat demo but it does not demonstrate truly radiating power between two distant points. They've essentially built a fancy a wireless cellphone charger.

60% is also almost certainly not total system. A portable antenna like that by itself, with no path loss or other losses, would likely have an aperture efficiency of about 60%. A planar patch antenna like the one used to receive would be similar.

I generally floss after most meals and scrape the tongue along with the brushing (but do it after brushing). I use the mouthwash randomly (once a day), mostly when I have to meet people, and don't really consider it a part of my regular oral hygiene routine. Your recommendation sounds good but I don't like the idea of not rinsing my mouth immediately after brushing with the toothpaste - that will take some time to get used to! Thanks for sharing this.
Not parent, but nowadays the smartphone is the way to get decent information on the screen of your car. The built-in car infotainment/nav systems are all horrible. Voice recognition is terrible. Plug the phone in, and to a first approximation everything works. With wireless Car Play, you don't even need to plug in.

Soviet (Russians) don't fully test systems in few programs, including first Moon automatic flights and R-7 rocket.

BUT! Because of this, R-7 made first successful flight from 7 or 8 try, and the same was with first soft landing - 6 ships crashed before success.

Other programs, like Buran or Lunokhod, was tested on small analogues or on bench.
Examples:
for Lunoknod created web wheels for Russian all-road truck, and it made thousands off-road kilometers;
for Buran was created few ships analogue, program named "Bor";
for rockets, usually created prototype from parts of previous generations rockets, looking Frankenstein.

When create analogues was impossible, created very simple designs, just like programmers create micro-kernel systems.

And in nearly all Soviet human programs, except "Voskhod" (sunrise, their success I think just luck), used rule, that ship should make 3 fully automatic flights without strict remarks, before carry human.

And yes, Soviet space program was more automated then American. - Soviet ships was capable to make all things without human on board. And they even made automatic flight around Moon without humans, but all flights had big problems. But Leonov said, if human was accepted, he would be fight for survival and made success (he was really brave).
Agriculture consumes something like 3 of every 4 units of water in Arizona. But 'consumers of desert lettuce are on a short leash' doesn't make quite as good of a headline.
Anything that continuously reminds you consciously of your spatial orientation should help in training you to use your innate sense.

> We have no strong, independent reason for preferring the Real World Hypothesis over the BIV Hypothesis.

Except that drugs and blunt trauma have direct impact on our experience. So a BIV would need some additional poking and prodding to mimic what would happen to the simulated brain. What happened to BIV's who got simulated lobotomies, for example?

And if we posit that the simulation adjusts the actual brain in the vat accordingly then it becomes the general full-simulation argument, not BIV.
> First, Low Earth Orbit is at least 160km above the Earth. You could do it at 100km but now you have to fight atmospheric drag on top of everything else and constantly need to readjust your orbit to avoid burning up.

I am just thinking out loud but what if we went out further and added an array of satellites in the geostationary orbits, not to power anything on earth but rather to power each other. I was thinking if we had enough of these satellites and they were in line of sight between each other, could they kind of send power to each other in case one of them was in the dark? Just thinking out loud.
I use Ubuntu because no free packages are built into core repos, meaning I don’t need to add dubious repo sources. I don’t like nonfree software, but need it to use my nvidia backed laptop (the oss driver is useless). Sure the fedora community repo is probably okay, but they have no public statements on assurance or security, so who knows.

It depends which signal they retransmit. If they amplified and retransmitted the raw 2 GHz signal, you are correct that it would be the same as a reflection, but stronger. Unfortunately, if the spacecraft is transmitting and receiving on the same frequency at the same time, the outgoing signal will overwhelm the signal you're trying to receive and you'll get feedback on the spacecraft. Kind of like getting feedback from a microphone and speaker. And it's also going to be very hard to detect the signal on the ground, as you mention.

Alternatively, they could extract the pseudo-random signal from the carrier and retransmit it at a different, fixed frequency. In this case, the problem is that the ground station doesn't have the spacecraft's transmission frequency for comparison, so it's hard to extract the Doppler shift. You could put an extremely precise frequency reference on the spacecraft and a matching frequency reference on the ground, but that's a lot harder than shifting the frequency in the transponder. Also, this approach only gives half the Doppler shift of the transponder approach, since you lose the Doppler shift in the upward direction.
So glGoogke results went to shit because the ciffee became terrible?
No one is debating that trade can increase price and personal utility. The point of contention is that trade cannot create surplus value. Beyond the labour of transportation, it is only realising the use value of the good. Nothing is being produced, and indeed an economy where very little trade beyond transportatio is necessary is a better one, because it is simply and inefficiency.

Those were problems for the Ptolemaic system, but were not a problem for Tychonic system. Tychonic cosmology had a stationary Earth with the Sun and Moon orbiting Earth, and the other planets orbiting the Sun.

In Galileo's time there really wasn't good evidence to pick between Copernicus and Tycho. The new evidence only knocked out Ptolemy. The debate between fans of Copernicus and fans of Tycho was still largely philosophical and religious.
> Every energy source does require some sort of energy to make it possible to harvest it. And nuclear is no exception

Indeed, and neither are solar, wind, hydro or any other - they all have environmental impact for producing the panels, turbines, dams, etc. So there are actually no exceptions at all, anywhere, which makes the classification completely useless. Could we get back to the topic now?

I find it kind of weird how many people were offended by our use of the term, supercomputing. The actual specs were on the front page of the kickstarter from day one.

> "cold is gods way of telling us we need to burn more protestants".

What? Christian Dominianists typically are Protestants, last I checked.

(Yes, American Catholics do contain a faction that's been shifting right, and there's a whole Wikipedia article about "Integralism", but this is not the kind of thing you usually find from them...)

But yeah, there are strains of Christianity that really like the "Romans fed us to the lions" stories.

As far as I can tell, most tribes do this in one way or another. Not all, but a good fraction. That they defend those stories to the end, and that their opponents try to deny that same victimhood status, I think speaks volumes. Everybody wants to be owed.

PoW is needed for the "trustless" qualifier. Other schemes like PoS can be very low trust but not fully trustless. They also tend towards ever increasing centralization.
