or you're just gullible enough to think crypto.com and Inter fan are "the crypto space".

pretty clutch on crypto.com's cringy part, to name themselves crypto dot com. its like they looked at all the people confusing any random bitcoin servicing company for "bitcoin" and was like "you know what would be better than arguing on hackernews about reality? just helping keep confusing them for fun and profit!"

one exchange, a highly lucrative one, bought a bunch of sports sponsorships, due to the fact that they already made a bunch of money, and then advertises itself, like every other company with vertically integrated ad space does.

I can confirm from talking to people who know him, and watching him speak about it at length in a small group, private setting, Ashton cares deeply about fighting child exploitation. His life outside of acting and family seems to basically consist of helping run his VC fund and working at Thorn, his company that works with governments to fight child exploitation online. He got emotional talking about Thorn and the work they've done. It's some of the most serious shit imaginable to fight against and deal with. I also wouldn't be surprised if he's had technical experts explain to him at least some of the problems with government oversight like this, and probably figures it's a valid tradeoff if it helps reduce child exploitation to any meaningful degree. He's honestly not a dumb guy at all.

I'll give a casual read that became one of my favorite books:

Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan

It's got some tech aspects to it since the main character is starting to get into using programming to investigate a mystery and that bit definitely feels motivating. We all have a bunch of problems that we deal with in every day life that we just need a little push to start solving. But it also is just a solid mystery book that's somewhat rooted in history with some great characters (although I think the main character and his love interest are kind of the blandest of the bunch). I don't want to say anymore since I'll get into spoiling it but I'll leave you with this:

Agreed. (Posted from my 2017 iPhone X with its original battery, 4.5 years and counting - still very usable, dare I say responsive, and I have no plans to change it this year)
Seconded. Great book

The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking by him is also good.
Something along these lines:

The Netherlands government has quite deep ties with the WEF, so expect The Netherlands to be at the forefront of pushing the WEF agenda. You can decide for yourself if that’s a good thing, but I’ve made my choice and am happy not living there anymore.

But I should add I left a couple of years before I even heard of the WEF. Me leaving The Netherlands was for other reasons.
Nobody is denying that. That's literally what I said when I said the approval ratings spiked to 92% (which you cut out from the quote). Consent can be manufactured, and the result is that people genuinely consent to the narratives given by the media.
Interesting article. I feel this is more a problem in the US. I live in Switzerland and you often see kids walking alone or in pairs going to and from school all by themselves - and yet no kids seem to be kidnapped or exposed to inappropriate behavior.
This demonstrates my biggest issue with the crypto ecosystem in general. We've combined financial complexity, technical complexity and a lack of regulation and created a fruitful environment for scammers and con-artists to run amok. 99%+ of crypto investors have little idea how the system works on a financial or technical level and it's one of the reasons I've personally avoided it.

I probably have reddit comments from years ago pinning Tether as a major risk to the entire bitcoin ecosystem. If you can't reliably move bitcoin to and from USD then Bitcoin's utility starts to rapidly approach 0.
Checking against callibration measurements isn't the only way to do things. With M87's SMBH for instance, they had a simulated image of what they ought to see given general relativity and what they knew about M87. The extracted data matches that fairly closely, thus lending credibility to the result for obtaining parity with physics without actually applying those physics to the data.

No concrete plans at this time, especially since there are many competing implementations.

If we open-sourced we’d need to do it right (proper governance, triage, support, etc) vs just putting into a public repo and calling it a day.
> Banks have to have assets backing 100% of deposits, or else they’re insolvent!

Yeah, by asset you mean "loan to other person", and that person will often deposit their loaned money in the same bank, where it will be loaned out again.
Companies that can't invoice promptly and correctly are in trouble.
It's ambiguous, and not that clear-cut.

Expressions like "A 20% increase in sales" are almost never used to describe an 20% increase in the sales department's headcount or budget. Most people would interpret that as a 20% increase in revenue from sales.

"Cost of Sales (COS)" in finance refers to the cost of making a sale, including all the costs required to produce the good or service sold, not just the compensation and other expenses associated with a sales department.

"Sales" as a noun does often refer to teh sales department, but there are times when it absolutely unambiguously means that, times when it almost never is interpreted as that, and times when it could go either way and a word like "revenue" would be clearer, but that doesn't make using the word" sales" to refer to revenue wrong.

Ok but without crypto would black market rates rise? I gather that was the point.
Same story here. MAPS from frequent pull-ups. TheraBand has kept it at bay. Also switched to gymnastics rings. I also modified my programming to alternate between pullups and seal rows for 6 week training blocks, so I'm also doing half the volume of pullups as I was previously when the pain was very bad. But the elbow pain is practically gone now.
ICE fires are mild compared to EV fires.
It's rather the opposite. Using querystring is the correct (intended) way, fragments are a hack. A fragment is a way to jump to a named anchor within the document, which by convention has been "misused" by developers to do client-side routing and URL state changes.

This workaround was needed when history push state did not yet exist or work across browsers. The hash hack is no longer needed, but still popular.

Does it matter at this point, for client-side state?

I think real query strings "look better", which is subjective but a more real world advantage is as follow. When you start out with a fully client-side web app (server sends empty body/div only) and use proper query strings in the client, you then later have the flexibility to add better server side rendering without any URL migration needed. Because the server can read the querystring, unlike hashes.
Yes. I was just commenting on how Americans see things. As a people we are extremely ignorant of international matters and don’t take into account that our over sized military does pay dividends. I don’t agree that those dividends are worthwhile anymore though. We are a nation with a first class military, first class level of cultural influence, first class level of soft and hard power that has second rate social programs. I would like that to be reversed.
Statement on the war in Ukraine and on the situation in Russia
Funny you should use 15:39 as your example.

I find the translation I have to do from 15:39 to 3:39 pm to have much more friction than reading a digital or analog clock in the first place, both of which I can do with equal ease.

The problem of course is that I'm not used to 24-hour times, so I don't equate 15 with any particular time of day. Similar to how I have to translate C to F to make sense of C temperatures.

Now, a 24-hour analog clock with an embedded digital temperature read-out in C, that would really hurt.

Apparently 24-hour analog clocks are thing:

Annoyingly, I've also seen e-paper used to refer to memory LCDs. Pebble, for example, called the screens on their smartwatches "e-paper".
> and it would be fairly simple for an expert to dump out the list of things being looked for.

I think the Apple design used some fancy tricks to run the comparisons without ever decrypting the reference data and even if that wasn't possible almost every new device comes with some kind of "trusted" platform module that only "trusted" actors can access.
But what would be a point of doing that?
We're kind of at a dead end between both leading theories. A counterexample to either of them would mean that we got it wrong somewhere, and might help us figure out where, potentially unlocking more later.

You wouldn't be surprised if your door opened just as usual when you put your key in the lock. The day it starts jamming however, you get very interested.

Writer’s essay on why she plagiarized her book removed for plagiarism
I wonder if there are a certain variety of plants that use more CO2 from air to grow, we could farm them industrially and at a point when they are not suing as much CO2 from air, we cut them down to bur them deep underground(as carbon storage).

Sure, this trades fresh water, usable land, and labor for capturing CO2, but at times of dire need, could it be an alternative to Direct Air Capture systems?
Isn't Dai crypto-backed? That would give it a risk profile, but also not make it risk-free: Counterparty risk (Tether) vs. exchange rate risk of the backing assets (Dai).
The irony of this is that by 1992 large numbers of Americans had already listened to the radio series, read the novels, watched the BBC show, etc., with all of their UK references and language in place. Why would anyone have thought the US audience wouldn't accept it? THey already had.
Does anyone know whether one can get more naive than that?
That is why 'custodial' crypto is not better than a bank account, it's worse by the prevailing FDIC insurance coverage.

On the other hand, retail customers can't be trusted with their wallet keys..
Just like 2017, of course they are getting hurt in 2022.

That's why schemes like ICOs that were popular years ago (Thanks to Ethereum /s) were made illegal in the US. [0] Many countries like the UK, Canada, etc to follow.

It is inevitable that regulations will be put in place and cryptocurrencies that are compliant will still be around.

I like how Cloudflare is taking a serious run at AWS.

And you can't even subscribe a program to a SNS topic and Cloudflare is giving us pub/sub.
I'm Finnish, neutrality part is true for Swedish people but not for Finns. In Finland politicians have kept saying we are aligned towards EU. Practically none has said we are neutral. Secondly politicians have for decades used wording "NATO-option" (even if NATO support was negligible before the war), that it's an option we can take if we want. It's even listed in government's program.

Sweden has history of neutrality and partly it's in their identity. That is why NATO membership is significantly more difficult for Swedish. It's evident in their media, and leading Social Democratic party is somewhat split there.

It might be that Sweden sends the NATO application without vote in the parliament with just vote in defense committee. Which means that Sweden might end up sending application earlier since in Finland the process must go through parliament.
> If you can't reliably move bitcoin to and from USD then Bitcoin's utility starts to rapidly approach 0.

But you can whether Tether exists or implodes or goes rogue or not. Take 5 minutes to understand why and come back with a better understanding of the crypto ecosystem? You're one of the 99%+ that you're referring to, that's just not trading.
What was your experience when you tried out the OP-1?
True.

OTOH, consider the potential downsides to living in a galaxy where the central black hole was far bigger, brighter, and cooler-looking...
I get that Ashton is trying to do the right thing here. The problem is the solutions are just so short sighted. I dug through his website and came across a blog post [1] they made blasting Facebook for implementing E2E on Facebook/IG Messenger.

On the one hand yes they are technically correct, but at the same time the argument is so incredibly short sighted. Yes if we ban E2E then it will solve the problem of CSAM, but at the same time it will open the door to a host of other consequences.

Honestly the argument sounds alot like the fictitious argument we make here: "cars kill X number of kids per year, let's ban cars!".

>AMD and Intel both have open source GPU drivers and they are still in business. Are you claiming that their business would be much bigger if not for those open source drivers?

AMD and Intel are underdogs, and benefit from open standards. Nvidia has an outright majority, and as a result their incompatible "standards" benefit them, because it forces everyone to choose between supporting Nvidia (and therefore the majority of their userbase), or "open standards" (a minority).
So I think both of you are 'right', but you're choosing to interpret, and argue, the statement from different perspectives.

Sales are important. However, as you note, sales now should not come at the expense of sales later (or lead to returns later, or etc). And debugging low sales is non-trivial.
It seems that this guy is looking for a way to make a lot of money with the blessing of governments. There is no evidence that he cares more about kids than money. It could have been anything else IMHO.

Short of Turkey committing some highly-publicised genocide its NATO membership is secured, the country's geo-strategic position is too important to just let it go to "the enemy's side".

M87, according to the original link is 1000x the mass of Sag A, which has a diameter 17x that of our sun. It is mind (and space) bending.
Yeah I'm fully expecting it to be something like a project management app. There are tons of ideas which you think are unique, but many, many others have them as well, because they run into all the same problems as you in their day to day life.

That's how it was in the US until fairly recently. It changed in the last decade or two. I'm not sure why. Crime hasn't gotten any worse, as far as I know.
That's not how NATO works. This will not affect US taxpayers
> Regardless, if debating in good faith you should respond to what people clearly mean, not to what you feel the words they’re using should mean in “correct” English.

you're wrong: I never said I was using the correct English, I said that in the English that I have studied it is called a government.

It's called government here too

You have definitely not had 67 different governments since 1946
Well I guess that’s where the idea of the “deep state” or “shadow Government” comes from. Obviously I don’t think it’s true to anywhere near the extent that many conspiratorially minded people do, but I think there could be some truth to it, in that there are bureaucrats (especially in intelligence) in many countries who probably do have too much power and too little scrutiny and accountability over what they do, who manage to keep their positions for long periods of time and abuse their positions for various ends and reasons.

As mentioned in the article, people don't care about facts. Kidnapping is at an all time low in the US. The only instances are family members during a nasty divorce or things like that.

"Think of the children" is the main weapon politics have to push regulations and more control. It is important that everybody thinks that kids are in danger at all time otherwise it would stop working.
Can I get an ELI5 on this? At time of writing 2018 points but I have no clue what the significance is.
Every country I'm aware of people also use government as a loose reference to the whole monster of state, branches (judiciary, executive, etc), constitution, laws, etc etc.

Didn't know it wasn't used like that in Italy.

There is vanishingly small likelihood of Sgr A* becoming active (in the sense of developing highly luminous structures nearby it). There is little in the central parsec to feed it, and it is low in mass for a central black hole. There is a lot of astronomical hunting to be done to find the weak polar jet from Sgr A*.

We only look down on its north pole approximately. Extending the spin axis of Sgr A* could miss our solar system by thousands of light years. A polar jet, moreover, can be slightly unaligned from the extended spin axis, and over a 27 kilolightyear distance, that can be even more significant. Finally, we don't know whether the spin axis of the black hole will keep pointing roughly towards us, or whether it sweeps through (up or down) or around the midplane of the galaxy (or on what time scale such "precession", if any, occurs: for all we know, in a few years we might have an image that evidences an Earth-based view almost perpendicular to the spin axis).

IIUC, it's quite easy in Argentina to convert pesos to dollars and store them in an Argentine bank with a US correspondent bank - ditto for Euros and Yen.

There are many downsides to Tether. Why is it worth the risk in comparison?

Additionally, there's simply not enough money in Tether compared to the $80B to talk about. It's a distraction.
The de-totalitarianization of the people will have to be all the more thorough.
Increasing it up to the state level maybe any smaller and you'll still have room for gerrymandering. Could even have districts still for people to have a person to directly go to but who represents which district is down to the statewide percentages. I'd love to see something like that combined with a ranked choice system. First past the post really heavily incentivizes a 2 party system.
My kids (ages 6 and 3) LOVE Bluey. We are American and (sadly) English-only speakers. The fact that the show is full of Australian accents has not impacted their ability to understand or enjoy the show in any way at all.

>there are people who genuinely are trying to solve the problem of child trafficking and this would actually help them do that.

No, it would not help.

You could compile Python using the --without-threads configure option, before Python 3.7 [1] or thereabouts.

[1] 3.7.0 is the first major release following the removal of the config option in https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/75551 .. there's also a 2021 comment about "This has unfortunately turned out to be a blocker on getting WASI support as there's not direct threading support in WebAssembly."
Nailed it.

Focusing on sales to solve internal problems is like focusing on work to solve internal problems.

It can work to an extent, but sometimes you need to solve the internal problem before you can get the results you need.

So it's a feedback loop that leads to circular thinking. The problem is when we try to blame the external side of the feedback loop, to avoid seeing that our internal side is the problem.
Not getting wowed here.
I think the two of you are using two different but legitimate definitions. GP is not trying to make it mean something it doesn't.

1. Existing independent of or external to the mind;

2. actual or real. Based on observable phenomena; empirical.

3. Uninfluenced by emotions or personal prejudices: synonym: fair.

For an example, I write an algorithm to use different seeds and distance functions for the Voronoi diagram to find the one that benefits Republicans the most. It would be deterministic and maybe objective in definition 1 and 2 but it would not fit definition 3. I would say it is heavily influenced by personal prejudice, just one step removed because it is the coders prejudice not the algorithms.
Come on guys, do some research, Tether now publishes audited reserve reports as part of the settlement with the US Department of Justice. ~70% of tether in circulation are backed by Treasury Bills and cash deposits, so immediately redeemable. The other ~30% in short term commercial paper can pose a bit of risk but unless they did something really stupid (and they are all but stupid) nothing to put the backing at risk.
Tether is here to stay and if you feel giddy at the idea of it going down ask yourself why you are rooting for someone to fail...
