Depends what your problem scope entails, but in general it comes down to a few key design choices and trade-offs.
1. Application layer load-balancing which allows for high-latency out-of-band idempotent transaction state consolidation between peers (rabbitMQ or Kafka often used to handle backlogs). This is hard to do, as other teams will break what they don't understand.
2. A non-polyglot solution like Erlang/Elixir which has “peer-state-awareness” and channels (functionally act like microservices) baked into the distributed OTP. i.e. the state is shared among peers through a simple abstraction, and only the assigned roles differ in non-persistent “edge” instances.
3. If you think in terms of classic data-center AWS partitions or sequentially indexed databases... you are likely approaching this wrong... just give up an go with Hyperledger Fabric.

YMMV, I just discovered my favorite game on my phone was intended for cats. ;-)

Auto dealerships are a good example. They are run by some local guy who gets a little bit of support from corporate and probably has a low cost marketing agency.

> a theoretical crypto crash won’t throw the market into turmoil

I don't think it will affect markets much. There are only a few companies involved. Most of the money is from the retail investors, and that money is already gone. The crypto exchange balances going to zero won't change things much as those are mostly imaginary numbers anyway.
Cryptocurrencies are a tiny and insignificant part of the financial landscape. Maybe (formerly) a bit larger than VC but even less influential.

I think realistically having a high “global minimum” is all we can really achieve that’s sustainable in the long term.

I’ve thought about it quite a bit, and though there’s a certain sense of satisfaction in wanting to bring down the elite / establishment, it doesn’t actually solve anything from the perspective of helping the average person.
It would be quite nice to see Debian adopt a longer term release model. In a lot of environments that was the deciding factor for RHEL/CentOS. A stable OS with security support for a decade.

The current Debian release cycle is closer to 2 years which means a big increase in testing and OS upgrade cycles.

I don't work directly with law, but El Salvador is becoming an an increasingly complicated jurisdiction to work in.

There have been more than a handful contradictions between written law, tweets, and government official declarations.

Doing business, in a country with conflicting interpretations of law is complicated, wether plain old business or crypto.

Laws changing on Sunday evenings, optimized for social media engagement instead of business hours. Or laws coming onto force before they are officially published.

Tweets or government official declarations used as an official 'interpretation' of law. Sometimes the interpretation being close to the opposite of what the law states. Who to believe? The interview, the tweet, the written law, the supreme court?

This confusion permeates everything. From complex stuff:

Like for the past months, a big pension reform has been announced. No drafts available of course. Will the individual pension accounts be nationalized? (Equivalent to the US IRA/401k/Employer contributions) There's no public info about that.

To the day to day stuff:

If the police detains someone and posts their picture on and convicts you for 20 years in prison in twitter. Is the tweet a valid conviction or not? I don't know. Judgement via social media?

Can police stop someone and check their phone? Yes

Have people been sent to prison for not carrying a phone? Yes

Have people been sent to prison for a 20 second TikTok video using the 'wrong' background song? Yes.

Can a business be taken over by the government? Yes, it happened at least once. It didn't even follow a normal law process and was a very confusing procedure with conflicting official declarations.

Can the police force the door open while a couple is in a 'love hotel' with your gf/bf and post their picture in social media, in underwear, your car, license plate, or your ID card? It has happened before too. Security checks.

Will having the wrong local rap song in the Spotify history send someone to prison? Probably.
Quadriga CX was a Canadian cryptocurrency exchange that went under a few years ago (early 2018? unsure exactly when) .

Basically the founder lived the high life with his partner, multiple houses, a yacht, etc etc, and it looked like a stunningly successful and honest exchange. He died in India when he was there apparently building orphanages.

It turns out that he ran the entire thing from his laptop and nobody else could get in as he didn't share the passwords to anything. It further turns out that when people started investigating properly, the whole enterprise was insolvent, because he had viewed the customer funds and company funds as personal funds, 'normal' money and cryptocurrency alike, and he had gambled most of the cryptocurrency away in bad trades on other exchanges, and most/all of the 'fiat' was gone too. He also turns out to have had a history of involvement in scammy 'hyper-growth investment!' stuff.

His death looks very convenient, and IIRC his widow won't allow the body to be exhumed and checked to make sure it's really him (it probably is, I have no idea). The funds were gone.

No, there's no reason for NVIDIA to react to that. Anyone working in the industry even glancing at a leak from the competitor would become a toxic legal liability. It's been a problem for reactos with windows leaks, and it would be orders of magnitude worse for NVIDIA/AMD.

Maybe I misread things, but this chart of market share is not declining in any real sense, its 1 percentage point variance in 43% share. So its 2% variance of their market share.

Did I misread?
At first I was impressed. Now I wonder if this was another "influencer" stunt. Sad that such a view even comes to the fore.

> The father, James Riley, alleged in a lawsuit that Tesla was negligent for removing a speed-limiting device from the car after his wife had asked for it to be installed. The after-market device was designed to cap the car’s speed at 85 mph.

> The family also argued that Barrett could have survived the impact of the crash but lost his life because of the intense fire, which the suit attributes to a defective design in the battery.

> “We very much look forward to proceeding to trial in this important case against Tesla,” said Curtis Miner, an attorney representing the Rileys. Tesla’s attorney, Wendy Lumish, didn’t respond to requests for comment.

> In its defense, the company said the speed limiter was removed on Barrett Riley’s instructions when he came to the Tesla shop where the car was being serviced.

> Tesla also argued that fires aren’t uncommon when cars crash and that the Rileys haven’t offered proof that a defect was to blame for their car catching fire.

Tesla takes responsibility for nothing. Typical and unsurprising, but that doesn't make it right.

The parents even tried to put a limiter but technicians removed it at the teenager's request. Sounds quite negligent to me.

Regarding the fires, did $TSLA design the batteries to explode in the event of an accident? If not, it sounds pretty defective and unsafe to me, especially relative to ICE cars which never have fires comparable to electric cars.

I know my ebike battery has a design where the batteries are all epoxied inside an enclosure with thick, structural walls. Even with tremendous impact, nothing in the batter pack will move. Why aren't the big boy e-car manufactures taking similar precautions?

Solid analysis. If I might add some factors about my particular market that might be similar to other people's markets that I believe confound the issues:

-- Builders are not building the kind of properties that buyers want. In my market these are suburban tract housing generally at a sub-$500K price point with low-end construction materials and finishes. Thus, buyers say "there's nothing to buy" because they aren't the kind of houses they want. They end up buying them anyway because it's all they can afford and/or other factors like proximity to work or family. But, looking at days on market, etc, relative to other properties, it's pretty clear buyers of these homes are acting more out of desperation.

-- Obsolescence. We have a lot of (older) houses in our area that are simply not conducive to modern living and until someone is able to do major overhauls, they will always be less desirable. Think tiny parlor rooms, bedrooms that barely fit a double bed, kitchens closed off from the rest of the house, single bathrooms, etc.

-- Non-turn key properties. My market is such that many local buyers live paycheck to paycheck and will not be able to afford renovations of any kind. Thus, the people buying non-turnkey properties are our out of area newcomers (of which there are many) but these buyers are such that they tend to want more amenities than our existing housing stock can provide. So basically anything not turnkey is sitting longer even in a competitive market.

So my point in all of the above is to say that in some markets, I believe there is more inventory than believed, but because it is not in line with market expectations you end up with the general public believing there are limited opportunities.
They forced it down to people's throats without listening to anyone's reactions or objections.

I have tried to learn how to use it and have lost counting how many times they changed how it works as a whole.

You have no idea how excruciatingly painful is for me to use it that I have 22 years of professional experience with computers; imagine how non-tech savvy users feel when they try to use it!

Not all people are computer literate or are interested in technology in general, what they don't understand?!

Users want a tool to do their job and they want it to be stable, safe, and robust; don't change this concept or you will lose them on the spot, PERIOD!

Instead of letting Gutenberg as a plugin it originally were (well, technically it still is offered as a plugin, but that's another story) - so people can choose whether to use it or not - they forced it to the community and on top of that they are working non-stop on implementing new mechanisms or ideas that cancel previous features, thus leading to a mad chaos.
That is fascinating. As someone who has writing a technical book as a life goal, I'd love to ask--do you have any insights you'd be willing to share regarding how to get started?
Reminds me of the time the authorities forgot to sign my passport application at my citizenship ceremony. They sent me an email (!) saying I had to refill the form and pay the fee again and send it to some random office address. I went to the local govt office where this had to be notarised and forwarded and they told me perhaps 10 times that this was not normal procedure and that they took no responsibility for the outcome. I replied the same number of times that I had received these instructions (which I showed them) and if I didn't follow them I wouldn't get a passport.

It was stupid and aggravating. You could see on their faces that they thought if they told me just one more time that I'd come to my senses and do it the "approved" way. They never did accept that I had no choice in the matter but eventually accepted my application and I got my passport a while later.
It seems to be (I hope so anyway) quite inbred as well... for the most part, only those in the crypto space should be affected. with little repercussions in the wider world
Just had my first graphics stack issue since 2013 upgrading to Fedora 36 and was caught flat-footed. I've got multiple GPUs, so now I've got to figure out if it's Wayland, amdgpu, nouveau (since unblacklisting), or dkms. "Just working" has made me lazy.
> Can you use `unsafe` to mark off entire scopes to avoid having to redeclare it?

Yes, but, you should avoid labelling large blocks of code "unsafe" when really only a small amount is unsafe or there are disconnected unsafe bits scattered through a function.

Also, though the compiler can't tell, stylistically it's proper in Rust to justify each unsafe block, and larger blocks mean the justification is often too vague ("Access the data" thanks, but why is this OK?) or falls out of date.

The idea is: Unsafe does not mean "I expect this is wrong but I want to do it anyway" rather "I am sure this is right but the compiler doesn't understand why" and the justification explains to other humans, maintainers, reviewers, and your future self, why you believe it's right.
> You cannot have both, unless you're willing to have a legislature that has something like 5,000 people in it, which is not practical.

Worked for Athens.

"Estimates of the population of ancient Athens vary. During the 4th century BC, there might well have been some 250,000–300,000 people in Attica.[4] Citizen families could have amounted to 100,000 people and out of these some 30,000 would have been the adult male citizens entitled to vote in the assembly."

"There were three political bodies where citizens gathered in numbers running into the hundreds or thousands. These are the assembly (in some cases with a quorum of 6,000), the council of 500 (boule), and the courts (a minimum of 200 people, on some occasions up to 6,000)."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athenian_democracy

Athenian eligible voters to boule ratio: 60-to-1

US eligible voters (233M) to 5000 representatives ratio: 46,600-to-1

US eligible voters to House + Senate (435+100) ratio: 435,514-to-1

Let's not discount the possibility.

It is shrinking because they have decided to pivot to Gutenberg. What they don't realise is that there is a major cottage industry of people developing custom themes for their clients, who use things like WooCommerce for selling. These people know how Wordpress works through the old, classic system of themes but couldn't care less about block themes.
Pedantically, a lack of "work-life balance" can be due to "lack of work" (as opposed to the much more common "lack of life").

Agree that the title could be better worded though.
I probably shouldn't dignify this with a response, but yeah, you don't know what you're talking about. The kernel XNU is OSS. The BSD userland is OSS. This means that technically, the operating system is open source. If you go by file count, there is far more OSS in macOS than not. But if you want to go by file sizes, then the only closed source parts of macOS, again, are the GUI, the Quartz Compositor, and a lot of Apple's installed applications, which are bound to have large file sizes. So it is deceptive and frankly false to claim speciously there are, plural, "orders of magnitude more closed source than open in macOS."

But every release Apple releases more open source software.[1] No other proprietary operating system vendor releases more open source than Apple.

So, yeah, you're just wrong.

From [this page](https://www.bitprime.co.nz/how-it-works/#fees ):

> Our fee structure is different to that of a brokerage or exchange. As a retailer, our expenses are generally higher than a sole crypto trader’s.

So apparently not an "exchange platform", but rather a "retailer".

Presumably they're trying to cater to less-technical folks who'd pay extra for the convenience/ease.

> What you see is what you get! Our advertised rates include ALL fees, and the price agreed upon at the time of purchase is fixed regardless of what happens in the market. Our fees appear slightly higher than exchanges because we have done all the hard work for you – with education and support to help get you started, and no need for you to deal with multiple exchanges or currency conversions.
> Also, like I said in the other comment, most of grid energy is already too expensive for Bitcoin, so mining really makes sense just for any extra capacity which wouldn't have a buyer anyway.

That's only partially true. And your first paragraph explains exactly why.

Compare: most cows are raised for meat, and the leather is just a by-product. However, the extra income from the leather makes raising cows a bit more profitable, thus giving us more cows on the margin.

Similarly, bitcoin mining soaking up excess capacity makes electricity generation slightly more profitable.

Eg instead of running a coal baseload plant and a natural gas peaker, you could run two coal baseload plants and outside of peak periods, you mint bitcoins. (Numbers are just for illustration. You get the point.)

About your first paragraph: yes, supply is elastic in the long run. But opportunity costs still need to be paid. Yes, in the long run you might not be trading off one Joule for another Joule, but you are trading off uses for capital.

(Also keep in mind that even with elastic supply, we still have decreasing marginal returns. There's only so many good sites for hydro-electric generators; all the windiest spots will be full of wind turbines at some point, etc.)
I agree; 2016-17 was about the turning point. I bought a Fury X around then, and it was flawless back then. In contrast, my old nvidia cards had become unusable.

On the AMD, FreeSync and HDMI audio didn't work at first. (For any card; the driver documentation said those features were a work in progress.)

Anyway, I unplugged it for a year or so, and recently plugged it back in. One apt get upgrade later FreeSync and HDMI audio just work.

It's gotten to the point where I'd opt for an ARM laptop over one without AMD or intel graphics. From what I can tell suspend resume doesn't work on intel CPUs (on windows or linux), so it's basically AMD GPU or no x86 at from a compatibility perspective. (Did AMD also eliminate S3 suspend, and not replace it with a working alternative?)
