For me as a student tinkering with whatever comes to hands (employment wasn't one of such things yet haha), I was pleased that it was very simple to make a web app work fully offline after initial load (including images and everything). You just go to the URL in your browser, without internet connection, and it loads. Not sure if the users are ready for this though
Yep, never seen a bounce with that amplitude and speed before, personally.

I love how crypto can have so many exchanges accessible simultaneously. Prices all over the place. Chart and price aggregators all over the place. Massive information asymmetries. Better to make your own pricing tools and have better information than others, the bar is quite low so its easy to get an advantage here than in tradfi.
>I hate the marketing from Tesla on this feature.

There's a pattern in software marketing you eventually learn to recognize. Almost all of what Tesla does is just repeating this pattern.
Luna crashed because people lost trust in it. The only reason people have trust in BTC is because other people have trust in it. If that ever changed, there is no actual use for a BTC, and they are thus intrinsically worthless.

Fiat currency has the backing of a government. The government demands certain payments of this currency in order to own land, and also for some extra rights like mineral extraction, fishing licenses etc. Thus, as long as the government is viable and can confiscate the land of those who don't pay, there will be demand for the currency, and it will be proportional to the value the government assigns to the property and the rate of tax.

Thus, the currency is stable, because you know at the end of the day, there will always be a buyer who needs to pay their taxes.
How to Create Modern Cards in Chakra UI and React (Free React Cards)
Some people I have talked to about the issue seem to think computer are fast and are better drivers becouse of that. And like, can calculate braking distances better.

Linode will continue to operate as usual for the time being and the company says that Akamai has “no intention of changing what has made us successful.”

Right. How many times have we heard some variation of this after an acquisition? And how many times has it actually panned out that way? I'm pretty sure the answer to that second question is, to a first approximation, "zero".

I had recently started migrating all of my stuff off of Linode to a cheaper alternative anyway, and this just makes me that much more glad. I really don't see things with Linode getting better as a result of this acquisition. Does anybody? Other than the marketing-gobbledygook writer at Akamai?

walmart and a few others did this with node back in the 0.10 days, except iirc it was them that was holding up node at that version. iirc when iojs forked off, they had a much faster release schedule, and then at some point rejoined the main node project which then proceeded at a much faster rate.

Was it also nike and paypal? I remember it being walmart and some others that were big champions of node in the beginning.
If it's taking 15 seconds to start, it's because the person is doing things with it that Gvim can't do. An empty config probably takes 1s to load.

It's like complaining that it takes 30s to boot your PC when Gvim opens up instantly. It's a silly comparison.

Luna's supply hyperinflated (from 100 million Luna to 6 trillion Luna) to try to save UST's backing, as designed. That's why its price got rammed irreversibly into the ground.

Cryptocurrencies in general, and shares of stocks, do not hyperinflate.
I know the question is probably sarcastic. But being serious: Simply by being good at their jobs of helping the people they manage and having those people want them to be part of the team.

I think it depends on how you define the demon. I first heard of it in the final, resolved version, so I see it as just impractical (because the solution is baked in).

The interaction between the demon and the particles is the key. The final version, at least as far as I'm concerned, comes from Landauer and Bennett [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell%27s_demon#Criticism_an...] -- the demon must accumulate information (which it can only do finitely) or erase it. Erasing information has a real physical cost, resolving the issue.

When the demon was first invented, information theory hadn't been developed yet. So the mystery to Maxwell was that it looked like it was violating energy conservation, but that's just because there's a sneaky place we can store entropy temporarily or finitely.

So, I think I was imprecise (or... wrong). A demon that does what we really want (generates free energy) is impossible. But it is impossible for weird reasons that Maxwell wouldn't have been aware of, and I don't think he explicitly explored them.
I believe you, I'm sure they exist, my argument is that they're not common enough for this level of pain. Personally, the way that org is sounds like it was by design.
At first i thought: meh, cute but not innovative...But then, i made my way to the makers of this site - which are Clover App (https://cloverapp.com - digital notebook app.)...and then really appreciated how they took their product and offered an alternative offering with some current nostalgia around the older (and fun, creative!) web...and now i seriously applaud them for this cleverness! Whether it succeeds or not, i really like this approach; kudos to the Clover app. folks! Seeing this angle, i will now look into the clover app for friends and family who don't have the tech chops for a website and/or who just want a GUI/WYSIWYG interface for web pages.

Oh, it absolutely did, it crashed down to 4 zeros, then bounced back up to 3, roughly a +300%-1000% price movement over the course of a day. Of course, liquidity may have been incredibly low, but there were reports of people turning $40 into $400 in the aftermath of all this.

Obviously, it crashed so much, the "bottom" was anyone's guess (well.. zero is the only one that makes sense now). But there are bounces all the way down. If you drop a bouncy ball down an infinite staircase it doesn't take a straight line down.
What made me mostly stop using it is that on a winding country road with no shoulder that I drive daily, it often STOPS for oncoming traffic in the opposite lane. These are standard width lanes, with plenty of room for 2-way traffic.

It also (on the same sort of road) applies the brakes gently very often, making me a bit sea-sick from the constant brake tapping.
> a week-10 day sprint

A week-10 day sprint on _one feature_? They haven't drunk the scrum kool-aid yet. Just wait until they do - then every feature will be a "story", and no individual story will be allowed to be assigned more than 8 "story points" (which for some reason means "one day"). If you think a "story" will take more than 8 "story points", you'll be asked to break it down into "subtasks" of no more than 8 "story points" each (you'll be asked to do this accurately in a few minutes in a standup meeting). Trust me, if you tell a higher-up non-programmer that there's anything wrong with the development model, they'll hear "we need to move to the 'scrum' everything-is-mandated-to-take-less-than-a-day development model".
I wonder how much can we call SQL a standard with so many differences between two different servers like this.

Certainly not. I am being dismissive because that's what I mostly have seen Discord being used for -- game coordination.

I don't dismiss there's some valuable data there, I am just very skeptical that most companies are even able to capitalize on it the way you say they might. That requires competence, and time, and budget resourcing, and most companies suck super badly in that.

No. It crashed because trillions of tokens were created rendering each token worthless.

We saw a similar behavior in the self driving car that hit the person crossing the road at night in Arizona. It first recognized the obstacle far enough away to safely avoid hitting the person but it effectively couldn't decide what was in front of it or indeed if something was in front of it at all.

Presumably because it spent a large portion of the time in what we would describe in a human being as a state of mild confusion it didn't slow down or react in such instances and it struck the person it had recognized from a substantial distance going 40mph and killed them. Same as this car would have killed its driver.

Regulators shouldn't allow a car on the public roads that might cross the center line and murder a family who didn't get a say in the other drivers choice of vehicle even if said car on average kills fewer people because if we demand better we'll get it. There is too much money to be made for the avenue to be ignored. It seems to me that superior instrumentation could tell the difference between a plastic bag in the wind. It should be required until they can prove they can do it like a human being on vision alone.

Solitude during practice is not the same as abandonment of a community. Monks don't live alone; even hermits have (admittedly small) communities.

> Afaict none of this is regulated in any regard so if that happened, would there be any impact what so ever?

Many laws and regulations that were written before cryptocurrency existed still apply to cryptocurrency.

People can't do an end-run around existing laws by wrapping crimes in cryptocurrencies and pretending laws don't apply to them.
It's a tool that enables someone who is too dumb to understand how dumb he is, to find the largest group of people on the planet, who are dumber than him. And exploit said group.

In the past you needed an army or huge amounts of corporate capital to find and exploit large groups of people. Twitter has shown you just need to pander.

Such a tool can't be "improved" or "fixed". It needs to be shutdown and banned.
This is an interesting point, though, respectfully, I do still think it's ad homenim. Internet arguments being what they are I don't much care, but I offer my reasoning here to better understand your point. OP did not engage with any of the points made, merely offering another term (without any sort of elaboration or definition), and said

> Notice how you had to put index in quotes.

as the thrust of the argument. In saying that, they imply that I, the arguer, 'A' in Bond's article, don't actually know what an index is (so how could I have a cogent argument about 'correct' indexing?). As this is the only argument of merit, it seems as though OP is actually trying to counter the point by suggesting (attacking) something of the arguer (myself).

Now, it may be that this ad homenim is justified -- if I truly don't know what an index is then yes, I probably should not be making claims about them -- but it's still an ad homenim (and, possibly, poor form).

Of course, this is ascribing a lot to 25 words of text with little other context. I would be interested to understand if you see things differently/think I have grossly erred in my analysis.
HN, the place where almost everyone makes at least 120k TC, with many of you hitting 300k.

> Why can't non-institutional actors achieve the same level of privacy?

Non-institutional actors are transacting over an immutable public ledger. Institutional actors are transacting via backchannels. In other words: the cryptocurrency transaction space is "schizophrenic": the traffic that supports high valuations is not settled on the chain itself, but via gentlemen's agreements. Non-institutional actors could do the same thing (and get the same privacy), but then it's just normal money laundering instead of "decentralized finance."

This made me remember a funny meme about dogs and cats.

It's a completely different ball game from UST.

UST didn't even claim to be fully backed, whereas Gemini's third-party auditing accounting firm attests to GUSD being fully backed, under the scrutiny of the New York State Department Of Financial Services.
Harvard Business Review: Why Build in Web3
Sure but in the Cold War period, as one data point, the Red Army had between 4 and 5 million soldiers [1].

A lot of people don't realize how much smaller the 21st century great power militaries are in pure manpower terms than the Cold War era, even for the US [2].

Additionally history is a huge factor here. Ukraine came under Soviet control as a consequence of the Russian Empire and this type of imperialism that had been rampant in human history up to this point largely died with World War Two and the onset of the nuclear age. European powers lost their remaining colonies (mostly) in the years following WWII.

The US has quite famously lost every war they've been in since 1945.

Ukraine as part of the USSR was really a vestige of a bygone era combined with a totalitarian government and a way stronger military than, say, exists now in Russia.

I keep saying this, but i feel so ripped off with FSD. Why?

1. If i sell, it does not transfer to the new owner. Edit: people disputed this - but i think this only happens if you also hand over the account. Either way, given this write up, it seems rather complex and imo, it shouldn't be if Tesla is trying to be genuinely honestly (https://www.findmyelectric.com/blog/does-full-self-driving-f...)

2. If i sell, I cannot keep it for my next car

3. The subscription option came out a month after we bought our car. Its about 10 years of FSD subscription payments

4. Saving the best for last - it doesn't work / exist

If i could get a refund I would. I cannot wait for the class action against Tesla for this, i'll be the first to signup.
My experience with Flatpak is that it sucks. Hard to work with, hard to get current versions of packages, hard to even use the CLI to inspect everything. Even the main flathub website was difficult to navigate and lacked detailed information about what versions of a package are available. Even installing a specific version is non-trivial and brought me back to Snap PTSD.

Every aspect of attempting to use a flatpak was terrible for me. This was two weeks ago.

The only thing worse than flatpak is that Ubuntu snap shit.

I hate to write these negative comments about these proposed future paths forward, but the reality of them is awful.

This is a really good point. Liberating migrations will change the behavior of migrants and hence the dynamics are completely different.

This is often talked about in the context of decriminalizing drugs. If you apply the current behavior to drug users to a world where access to drugs is less restricted, you can come up with all sorts of weird problems, which will simply not manifest because the nature of drug use is completely different when it is not a crime.

Similarly applying the current behavior of restricted migrants to a world where migration is free, is a little misguided.

Stock prices are back around where they were before the pandemic. It may have already been overvalued at that time, but perhaps it is a level of overvalue that people are comfortable with as we were already there before the system got flooded with money.
>> The funding bodies want us to detail all expenses and justify all the changes in the plan, because they don't want people to say that the public funds are mismanaged. This is just an example. We also write tons of useless papers, to justify that we are productive with this money.

That has always been the case. The alternative would be to disclaim the GPL and face straight copyright infringement, which in the US can be as high as $150K per copy. No company making wide use of GPL and infringing it would want to go the copyright route.

The GPL is not really dangerous except to someone with no legal clue who is deliberately ripping off free software.

You always need a backstop, otherwise you only have scarcity and not intrinsic value. Scarcity gives value in a bull market when people want in, but only a backstop gives real intrinsic value in a bear market when people want out.

It isn't like you can reverse the mining process and get back the electricity which was used to mint your BTC or something.

I have been working with Ruby for over a decade and IMO most metaprogramming is the worst part of Ruby code. It makes code very difficult to reason about outside of runtime and makes unclear traces when something does go wrong. Now I know it can be done right, but I think the Ruby community ran too much with DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) and "clean" minimal syntax at the cost of maintainability and readability.

It also makes it hard for tools to reason about what is being run as well when you have stuff running in `instance_eval` contexts and `method_missing` being abused. So now here we are trying to unravel that by trying to make the interpreter smarter with caching to improve performance but if I had to turn back time, I would reverse every instance where one tried to be clever with metaprogramming in the name of syntax.
I like the distributed ID stuff and think its good or at least has potential.

permissionless computing is also fine, but I think payments need to be somehow decoupled from this. endless ocean of tokens is stupid. we need some kind of distributed payment gateway built into the internet where you can use any currency on a list of supported currencies, and none should be supported that are "bad" ie planet killing POW.

tokenization I think is a dead end
It's funny that you should mention the MIT sense of the term. I was very influenced by this line from The New Hacker's Dictionary, which came out of the MIT hacking culture:

"[T]he ties many hackers have to AI research and SF literature may have helped them to develop an idea of personhood that is inclusive rather than exclusive — after all, if one's imagination readily grants full human rights to future AI programs, robots, dolphins, and extraterrestrial aliens, mere color and gender can't seem very important any more."

It has been a rather rude awakening to realize how much hacker culture is the opposite of that. They see the most powerful and intelligent people as looking like themselves, and see their exclusion of anybody else as proof that they were right about it. They believe in a "meritocracy", but define themselves what constitutes "merit", and it just happens to be the things that they're already doing.

I don't know what's actually going on in Cambridge, Mass, but Hacker News brings me every day evidence from their successors in Silicon Valley. I see so much intolerance here.
I appreciate that this web site produces a "bottom line up front". Searching google for something like "can a dog eat blueberries" usually turns up an SEO optimized article saying something along the lines of "your dog might be able to eat blueberries but it probably shouldn't".

Where is the answer coming from here? Is there a database of foods dogs are allowed to eat, or is it pulling the answer from other internet sources dynamically?
I’m sure it will come up if it’s backed by evidence and newsworthy, but don’t hold your breath.
