Your TSLA gains are nothing compared to what many people in here made on Ethereum.

Yet such people don't roam around screaming off the top of their lungs "Buterin is God!".

Ethereum, much like TSLA, much like betting on Trump back in 2016 are about calling an event and predicting what's gonna be the outcome of a socio-political movement.

Nobody is better prepared to predict such outcome than the guy who can keep his cool and openly admit that such social movement is really just BS and hot air, but that nonetheless it still has steam and room to grow among the populace for the time being.

What you don't want to be is a so called "true believer" as that would prevent you from jettisoning yourself once the movement runs out of steam, if you are a "true-true believer" you might find yourself storming the capitol...or in Musk's case the SEC building as that would be the aim of his rage when the socio-religious movement that he built runs out of steam as they eventually all do.
Is that even true? I don't think I've seen or read a direct apples-to-apples comparison of the two.

There could be all kinds of reasons why that is tho (if it is in fact the case).
I think you focus on the wrong thing. If your code is good, just send git diff to the mailing list and watch it being commited. Tools used is not some kind of magic pixie dust ...
lol. some of the smartest people i’ve worked with had twitter on their resume.
I didn't mean an actual economic duopoly, that was sarcasm. I meant a duopoly in the sense of two poles of the political spectrum that each seems to cater to exclusively.
> I was seeing line rate in linux and freebsd and somewhere around 3gbps in OpenBSD.

This is the only reason I don't still run OpenBSD firewalls - because the little appliance I use doesn't have the CPU to keep a gigabit NIC saturated and I have gigabit internet. Now that topton refreshed their offerings with 10th and 11th gen 2.5gbe firewalls [1] I plan to try again. Having said that, I tried drag racing PFsense, Fedora and OpenBSD in virtual machines on a DL360 G9 under vmware and OpenBSD wasn't able to keep up there either.

TSMC makes a lot more than iPhone CPUs. A lot more. And they do a lot more than cutting-edge process nodes -- they have active 180nm fabs. Microcontrollers, ADCs, DACs, ASICs... almost anything you can buy that contains electronics can have ICs manufactured by TSMC.

Now think about all the non-consumer equipment with embedded electronics -- trucks, trains, container ships, industrial equipment, medical equipment. Suddenly there are no spare parts available. It takes months to redesign and re-manufacture new electronics, and the supply of non-TSMC components will be unpredictable as everyone rushes to change all at once.

On top of that, other foundries in Taiwan (like UMC) would go down, we'd be cut off from all the fabs in China, and if the war expands China might target fabs in South Korea and Japan. It wouldn't be mass starvation in weeks, but it might only be a few steps removed from that.
Calling them "dad jokes" strongly implies that it's the men who aren't funny.

Monopolies have the option of using their excess profit to enrich a few people at the expense of the customer. But it is not a requirement and that is also a good way to have the monopoly destroyed. Another option is to use the market power paternalistically, giving people services they didn't know they needed, planning for the future, performing basic research and R&D outside their current scope. Arguably there was a time when AT&T and its subsidiaries Western Electric and Bell Labs were doing this sort of thing. But they were also charging people an arm and a leg to rent a durable but low-functionality handset and preventing third party devices from connecting directly to the lines.
I really like their Android and web clients. I don't use a lot of advanced features, but find it to be very responsive and handles everything I do very well. Prior to switching to Fastmail, I used to have my mail forwarded to Gmail but much prefer Fastmail's clients to Gmail now, which surprised me.
i like how you casually slipped liberty in there.

It's an impedance mismatch. You're moving files between a system that supports multiple streams per file (data fork + resource fork) to a system that has no concept of different streams (POSIX). The extra stream has to go somewhere, or you get data loss.

It's worth noting that almost all modern file systems support multiple streams. NTFS has alternate data streams, Ext4 has xattrs. Modern SMB and NFSv4 also both support this at the protocol level.

The problem arises when you're using Samba (without vfs_streams enabled), or you're writing to a legacy FAT filesystem, in which case you start getting the AppleDouble files - again, to prevent data loss.
I saw a chart today from someone who knows what he’s talking about of greenhouse gases emitted in the production and consumption of European fossil fuels. A couple of things stood out:

1) Coal was actually the best performer in this metric (which I found shocking but possibly this is as a consequence of emissions controls introduced for other reasons)
2) Gas used to perform much the same as oil but in the last couple of years has gone completely out of control.

Said person was arguing that trying to reduce emissions is attractive in the short term where there’s lot of easy wins, but in practice no-one’s shutting down the fossil fuel industry and it would be better to mandate they move to net zero/carbon sequestration.
Maybe a first step to discourage this would be to restrict the time the chancellor or any minister can be in office to two election periods (like the US president). Sixteen years of Kohl and Merkel governments, respectively, paralyzed the country and hindered progress especially in the digital sector.
I have a few Windows machines at home and BITS is so good that I’ve never really noticed it in action.

By comparison, macOS App Store downloads and updates can hog bandwidth horribly. It was just my wife and I on our at the time 25mb/s line, and Netflix dropped to like 240p and was still struggling while I was doing an XCode update.
what problems would it add? you haven't actually made a point yet.

the blockchain would provide a tamper-proof record of each vote. that is an improvement.

i don't understand what benefits hashing would add.
> Typical example for corrupt politicians of Kohl's CDU party.

Schröder is SPD and he seems to be shoulders deep in Nord Stream controversy and Gazprom money. So it kind of looks like a German political class issue rather than a CDU issue.

You already did that once, for your simulated annealing code.

Honestly, it feels like you're just bitter and stuck in your ways. Yeah, git works. Syncthing works. Syncthing also has non-obvious behaviors that can lead to you wiping your folder and losing all your data (source: I've done this accidentally). These things take a lot of effort to setup and keep working, and a lot of fiddling over time. There are plenty of people out there who just want something that works, that doesn't take up valuable time and mental bandwidth. Fig is great. Maybe not for you, but it seems to me like you're simply not the intended demographic.
I really don't appreciate people on HN posting wildly inaccurate links, I think that's something we need to be discouraged from doing. Second, are you unaware of solar panels?
This is how all mixers should be! I can't believe how audio is still basically analog. Even digital things are still linked by analog connections.

Digital wireless exists but is completely nonstandard. Digital audio over XLR exists but there are multiple standards and none are anywhere near as big as analog.

And mixers are all still analog despite the fact they could probably be cheaper if it was done in a DSP at sufficient qty, and there would be no concern about scratchy faders, ever.

it would have ended up dead fiber, like so many failed fiber rollouts from the era of "smart cable"

most people don't realize that there is dead fiber all over San Jose CA (it literally stubbed up out of the ground near the utility box of a house I used to own there, so its not up for debate)...part of a failed pilot project from the cable provider. probably severed or degraded in twenty different mystery places by now so no one will ever bother trying to do anything with it
It's amusing to see CNN circle the wagons by shutting down CNN+ in favor of one "big tent" streaming service from the parent company.

It's as if a cable channel is not supposed to develop a strong brand. I mean, MTV did, back when it played music videos, but as part of the Viacom stable the then 65 Sumner Redstone decided unilaterally that we wouldn't be able to watch music videos anymore.

The ratings went in the toilet but who cares, Viacom is entitled to a certain number of cents per sub whether or not you watch and there is no way to accept or refuse MTV except to subscribe or not subscribe to the whole bundle.

People might think you have a brand because you have a logo but there is no benefit for the company in making the consumer believe that you stand for something because the consumer doesn't have a disaggregated choice: once you subscribe it doesn't matter if you watch or not.

It drives me nuts that people think GAME PASS from Microsoft is a good idea but I see it as "someday parents are going to be wondering why their kids aren't interested in playing video games anymore"... The answer will be that games wouldn't have been fun for twenty years and the parents just remember what it was like back when video games were fun, back when video game makers made money when they made fun games people want to buy. Once they got paid regardless, there wasn't any reason to make games fun anymore.

Homebrew is the lowest common denominator of package managers. If you search Algolia for homebrew you'll find many, many stories of hard times. It seems to be the most popular package manager on macOS but it is dog slow. It is easily the slowest package manager I've ever used.

This is a place where Nix really shines. Known inputs produce known outputs. When you remove a package nothing is left behind. The package selection is immense. I use it on WSL and Arch (with a flake) and it works exactly the same everywhere with no gotchas.
Yea there are many examples of high level corruption in the german government (and most western governments actually, including the US). A recent example is the mask scandal with CDU/CSU (same party) https://www.dw.com/en/german-mask-scandal-unforgivable-viola...

You will not find much local corruption though, which is what most people think of when they hear corrupt countries. Local corruption is paying of a cop, judge, that kind of stuff. I’m sure it also happens in Germany, but that is very very rare.
I think so? PostgreSQL is very well written software AFACT.

I've run into version incompatibilities before, but it was my fault – they were expertly documented in the release notes and I just hadn't read them (or sufficiently tested the upgrade before the live performance of it).
A plethora of multiple local monopolies combines all of the internal service (accounting, legal, compliance) duplication and inefficient fixed-cost overheads of multi-seller markets with all of the seller-biased non-equilibrium pricing of giant monopolies. Somehow, we got the worst of all worlds.
I don't know about that, man. I think it's just men over 35 or so no matter what. I'm 41 with no kids and love dad jokes, not to try and rekindle the feeling of feedback from a 4 year-old since I haven't regularly interacted with 4 year-olds since I was a 4 year-old myself.

That's funny. Is there a gallery collecting these?
Sounds they plan to make quite a few more: "plan to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by more than doubling nuclear power capacity this decade"

China had ~50 GW of installed NPP capacity at the start of the decade (according to WP), so this would mean getting 50+ big new plants online this decade. They seem to plan for ~7 year construction times so these would need to be started by end of next year. Anyone know how many are currently under construction?

They started the decade at about 5% nuclear energy share of total production so if they make the target, they'll be probably somewhere between 5 and 10% depending how much the total electricity production capacity increases.
That would be against the current UEFI spec. I get that people are cynical and expect this to happen but I don't think it will.

Is really the makeup of TSLA shareholders a bunch of WallStreetBets dummies?

I really doubt that this is the case. I know that there's some real retail investor interest in the stock price movement and for a minority the fundamentals, but I'm sure there's some institutional investors and smart money who are in it for the long run and who analyze the company's financial statements, and evaluate and scrutinize the founder's every move and decision and this Dr. Evil's scheme of taking over Twitter and turn the platform as a tool of propaganda for Musk's financial interests and self-aggrandizement looks very concerning to put it mildly.

I can't think of better way to diminish one's own technical skills than to make a claim that twitter is '60 lines of perl'. Let's see, let's even take one tiny component of twitter, realtime push notifications across a distributed system, can you do that in 60 lines of perl?

Lack of investment in the actual technology, poor vision for what the product could be...they focused on extracting short term value at the expense of long term value. A key example is the interstitial page with the countdown timer whenever you want to download anything that forces you to sit there and watch an ad. Anytime you see something like that, run. Those kinds of decisions are made at the board level to generate revenue, generally because the investors don't have enough money to actually keep the company running and working on higher value, longer term bets. If not made at the board level, it's symptomatic of a dysfunctional and incompetent product organization that doesn't really care about the product, and views what they are doing as a job they'll be gone from in a few months or year anyway.
If flying aircraft carriers of this vintage interest you, "The War in the Air"—written by H.G. Wells in 1907 and published in 1908—is chock full of them.

I could not find it in this article but how do they know these acts were carried out because of their gender? The word "femicide" indicates that it is because of their gender and is generally done by a man, so they imply it but give no evidence for it.

Based on there own numbers in the article men are still far more likely to go missing then women. How do these numbers stack up against missing women in American and other LATAM countries? Also are these occurring in towns with more or less cartel activity, one would think the higher the cartel activity the higher the likelyhood of something like this happening.

All that being said I don't disagree that there is an issue in Mexican culture as it relates to violence against women. I grew up in Tucson, AZ and on at least 4 occasions witnessed women being dragged into cars by their hair by a group of armed Mexican men. So long story short this article makes me conflicted, I believe it based on personal anecdotal experiences but still wish to see these numbers in relation to other cities in Mexico as well as other countries.

Securitizing the Listerine royalty would require setting up a Special Purpose Vehicle (basically a legal entity whose sole purpose is to own the Listerine royalty rights). It would require bank accounts to be setup to process the royalty payment. It would be considered security and as such would need to registered and regulated by the SEC in order to be sold. All this would cost a several hundred thousand dollars in legal, administrative and banker fees. This would only make sense if several hundred million dollars worth of Listerine royalties were being securitized, and if there are investors who are willing to buy the hundreds of millions of dollars of resulting securities.

None of those securitization processes could be made more efficient, secure or cost effective with an NFT or any other blockchain technology. Introducing cryptocurrency into the securitization process would only be for the purposes of a marketing stunt that would make the process more costly, complex and risky.

You say you would love to buy 1/100th of an asset that has a list price of $2 million, so presumably you would be willing to invest $20,000. Well, I have news for you, multi-hundred million dollar securitizations are not done because someone says they would love to "interact" with a "smart contract" and have $20k to invest, they are done because multiple investors have promise to buy tens of millions of dollars of those securities. And those investors are interested in earning dollars, not "interacting" with "smart contracts" for fun and games.

So no, NFTs are not ideal for this kind of asset.
