Doesn’t it highlight the insolvency of USDT because they don’t actually have the assets to exchange all their coins for $1 and won’t conduct a proper audit to confirm or deny?

It should be fairly easy to do a run on USDT, but not sure if anyone would make money from this.
Edinburgh's not so bad for rain. Not compared to Glasgow, at least.

The wind, however, is incessant from October to Easter, and somehow is always blowing into your face. When it does rain, it comes down sideways. Add wind chill to the already cool temperatures and it's absolutely bitter.

I love Edinburgh, lived there for a few years, but it's tough going.
Societies made of selfish people die out, and before dying out they impoverish themselves, because human interaction is not zero-sum. Narratives promoting altruism last because people can observe the misery selfishness causes. Cooperation, not rationality, is the fundamental advantage the humans have over other animals.

Historically altruism was the most important form of cooperation, and trade was secondary. Now we have additional modes of cooperation like science, law, employment, and free software; and trade has also improved its powers dramatically.

But they cannot substitute for altruism in all situations.

> Indeed, despite the growing popularity of synthetic meats such as Beyond and Impossible Burgers, along with a 2020 poll indicating that one in four Americans says they’re cutting back on meat consumption, domestic demand has increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. (According to a report by agricultural research firm CattleFax, U.S. per capita beef consumption in 2021 was the highest it’s been in 33 years.)

Eating beef means killing the planet faster. [https://ourworldindata.org/land-use-diets]

Synthetic meats are not the only way (or the best way) how to replace meat in your diet.

If you'll try plant-based diet (of course done correctly), after some time your gut bacteria will adjust and you won't even miss meat taste (and even maybe distaste meat smell).

If you're trying to eat healthy, you'll go to the source for the protein (and avoid highly processed food altogether). [https://html.duckduckgo.com/html?q=vegan%20replace%20meat]

I’ve thought a lot about that, and most “oppressive governments” only show their face if you are poor. Same for governments known as non-oppressive to be honest.

I was thinking about Monaco, small town, but the actions are a high surveillance state with rigid rules, a monarchy. There simply are no poor people, but if there were, it would be seem as an oppressive autocrat (they have a congress/parlaiment, just like other autocrats do these days). But there aren't poor people, and its more like a perpetual gala.
'most companies seem reluctant to hire a thirty-someting embedded senior to do junior web dev work usually done by a teen or twenty-something out of bootcamp.'

It's not about fundamental value. It is simply that it is usually a good bet that if something has existed for an amount of time it will continue existing for a similar amount of time. This mostly stays true even in the face of breakthroughs, disruptions or paradigm shifts. It takes time for the old paradigm to fade. Unless there is a clear sustained period after period decline, the thing will probably continue existing.

A lot of designers just prostitute themselves to making the art as requested - very few infuse it with their own ideas. But they would like to. It won't surprise me if corporations replace them all with AIs. But people will see through it. It won't score as well. A decade or two might pass where almost all communication art is done by AI. In the end, designers will be in high demand because - Marvel movies to the contrary - you can't replace ideas and substance by just visually manipulating stuff. Even if that form of legerdemain works in the short run, it wears off because humans are drawn toward novel, human ideas. This is the whole reason 70s disco collapsed and punk music sprang up. The idea that you can endlessly sell generation after generation complete rip-off garbage runs into a wall because you have to dumb down the population to such an extent that e.g. they're all hooked on fentanyl and can't actually buy anything if you do that. So you then have to retread and market to the people with brains left, but they won't accept recycled corporate trash, and they're the ones you need to keep your brand alive.

You can buy and shovel out all the Maroon 5 you want but you can't be cool unless you co-opt Rage or GnR or some band that's legitimately cool and meaningful to people and outside the reach of what everyone knows was already for sale. AI art is always gonna be corporate garbage regardless of how perfect it looks because the people who guide it will always be corporate douchebags.

I used to like Elon circa 2018 up until he started acting up (pedo guy, et al), but the main thing that soured my opinion of him lies in being -- don't know if this is the right word -- unhinged.

I just can never trust anything he says because he has a significant history of being indecisive and disorderly. This deal is a perfect demonstration of how I feel. What I can't really tell is if he was always like that or grew into it at one point.

Also, the guy is always going to extreme lengths to seek attention, just like one certain US politician...Something turns me off from these types of people.
I agree with everything you write, but the opposition to "too much cgo" has another reason too: what's the point of using a memory safe language if you tie it to a large body of code that is not memory safe? Rust applications using C libraries have this issue too, although the performance penalty of calling C from Rust is less than for Go.

Of course, there are still valid reasons for using cgo. But if you are building a library, you should ask yourself the "cgo or not cgo" question even more seriously, because you will be forcing everybody who uses your library to use cgo too...
You are the one who proposed that the majority should not follow the minority, but now you are also saying that the minority should not follow the majority either. If your point is that nobody should follow anybody because freedom is more important than standardization, that's fine, but then it would have been clearer to just say that in the first place.

In my opinion, when we are talking about a data interchange format like CSV, having a simple, common format would be far more practical and efficient than allowing each country to decide for itself its own standard. Having dealt with exactly this problem in a global SaaS product where a minority of clients submitted CSV files with commas for decimal separators, I can say it would have made the parsing code a lot simpler and more robust if our system (and countless others like it) did not need to build in exceptions for this minority use case.
It also makes it harder to debug or do performance profiling. Or to manage builds in CI/CD.. there is a lot of cost to CGO.

C++ linking would be very convenient for library users - when it works. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you are only guaranteed to be able to link to a C++ library if you are compiling with the exact same compiler (brand and version). In other cases it's hit and miss if the ABI would match, as everyone seems to have a slightly different version of C++ ABI.
It's a shame really, because my OOP brain doesn't much like making a C interface to what is essentially a bunch of C++ objects.

>[0][1][2]

It seems like these people do not understand what LUNA even is.

>[1][2]

These people should not have gone "all in" on a risky investment. Even without the hindsight we have currently algorithmic stablecoins are very risky. LUNA grows in value when demand for UST increases, but if people want to exit the ecosystem that is going to mean that the value for it is going to go down. If a lot of people want to exit at once it will be even worse.

>guaranteed 20% APY

Anchor is just one dapp in the terra ecosystem and at it doesn't offer a guaranteed 20% APY. Also if you are looking for high APY in defi with stablecoins, Anchor isn't the only place to find it. I can easily find ~30% APY in an different algostable right now. Algostables are risky to hold so they incentivize you to provide liquidity with good rates. I also see 50% APY for supplying liquidity between a BUSD and USDT trading pair which is fairly safe, but the rates for this one will drop soon once more people take advantage of this.

This is truly the heights of false equivalence no matter what you actually think of Elon Musk. The Great Leap under Mao took the lives of between 15 and 55 million people.

Microsoft's Use of Pluton Suggests It Sees PC Owners as the Enemy
There's another side effect: Whenever a site or community grows, it becomes a more and more attractive target for bad actors. The site finds a way to separate signal from noise, this attracts an audience, and that attracts bad actors who learn to mimic the signal in order to access the audience for their own gain. Unless the site finds a way to expand whatever it did in the first place to isolate signal from noise, to also isolate signal from mimicry, then the site will go into quality decline.

We've seen it on Amazon with fake reviews and a flood of cheap crap, we've seen it on Facebook with clickbait, bots and manufactured outrage being counted as "engagement", we've seen it on Etsy with cheap crap passed off as homemade crafts, we saw it with StackOverflow-copying SEO-spam on Google, and just blogspam and SEO-spam in general. Whenever there's a commonly-relied-upon signal, there's someone trying to mimic it, thus lowering the value of the signal.
Funnily enough, Elon Musk's tweet does not mention "monetizable".
A civil society would deal with this through the political process.

One guy on twitter said his net worth (or something) went from $2B to $100 in 5 days...
Did you mean "What happens when you don't know that you don't know what you don't know?" ?
There's a lot of talk about how Elon is weaseling out of this. That may be true but you should know something about acquisitions. Typically there is a termination or breakup fee that one side has to pay for walking away or if the deal falls through. AT&T paid billions for the failed takeover of T-Mobile [1], for example.

The Musk Twitter deal has a $1 billion termination fee [2] on both sides. Now it's unclear on what conditions would trigger this exactly. In Twitter's case, it at least includes accepting another offer. On Musk's end, it includes if financing falls through.

So here's the $1 billion question: what happens if (as Musk might argue) Twitter made material misrepresentations about their business, specifically to do with how many users they actually have? This might be an out for Musk or it might not.

Personally I've long thought there are a huge number of fake Twitter accounts and Twitter is actively disincentivized from ever finding out if that's true or not. Put another way: they like their big numbers for active accounts, DAU and MAU.

But if Twitter is found to be materially misrepresenting those numbers, they have way more serious problems than if the Musk deal falls through. They've then opened themselves up to litigation by the SEC and investors that they materially misled investors.

Things could actually get really ugly for Twitter here regardless of what happens with the Musk deal.

If you think about it, this could be a relatively cheap way of mortally wounding Twitter. Make a buyout offer, get access to the books, prove they're lying about DAU/MAU, walk away with no termination fee paid, watch the executive team get sued into oblivion and the company tanks.

I don't think you generally need much reasoning to argue that people should obey laws and that laws should be enforced. The only surface area I see for disagreement here at all, much less downvoting, is whether one thinks a legally mandated quarantine is a good law at all. My second comment even got flagged for stating that a single person evading a legally-mandated COVID quarantine could do an exponential amount of damage.

If that's not sufficient proof, like I said, I can provide more. I actually abandoned another account here because the downvotes and rate limiting of my account got too annoying to deal with. I can't prove for certain that many of them were downvoted for politically-motivated reasons, but there are many for which I can't see any other likely reason.
