Correct. Finex may have started out on shaky ground, but now passed a NYAG lawsuit and is working to become more legit. Even the CEO is out in public now doing podcasts and he never used to be. The only way USDT fails now is a concerted attack, likely by a government, thru some mix of disinformation, lawsuits and new laws.
If starlink continues to focus mostly on the 55 degree latitude market and below, it's been possible oneweb will be complete and usable before there's full coverage of polar orbit starlink.

With China eyeing Taiwan, I doubt the major players will start buying Yuans at the moment and the Ruble is out of the picture. What else is there? CHF? GBP? Can't see those replacing the USD as a world reserve currency -- those days are (most likely) over.

There is the Euro, but it's not like there aren't several EU countries with severe financial issues. COVID hit the Eurozone pretty hard, and with high inflation, the war in Ukraine and the prospect of very high food and energy prices the next six months I wouldn't be too sure. Interest rates are finally going up aswell. EURIBOR just went above 0% for the first time in many years and there's a lot of people in overvalued homes currently fearing the bubble will burst.

I'm not an expert in this area, but from what I understand, I don't think that's actually true. I believe the advantage was that they had very high performance at low pressures, which reduced the demands of the mechanical design. This was obviously advantageous when material science, compressors etc. weren't as advanced, but is not as much a deal anymore.

Weirdly, when I'm evaluating open source libraries having their own domain name rather than a site on GitHub pages or ReadTheDocs is a very slight mark against them in my book - because of exactly this.

If a project has its own domain name, it has better be VERY confident that it will be renewing that domain for decades to come. If it's a relatively concise library I would much rather it use a trustworthy service to host its documentation as opposed to some custom domain that's likely to expire and break links in the future.

(My own open source projects now mostly hang off my https://datasette.io/ domain, but I was a few years into that project before I committed to a domain name that I plan to renew for the rest of my life.)
> being that taste seems largely generational

Some things have a bathtub curve of desirability: they go out of fashion but many decades later the good stuff becomes stylish again — retro or antique. Think ugly 50s Formica kitchen table and chairs, 70s cookware and fondue sets, or 80s children’s toys.

There is a public database[1] of registered car models by year in the UK going back decades: if you look at the data for say a super crappy Vauxhall Chevette station wagon, numbers drop sharply followed by a longer slow decline, and finally a ducktail uptick when they become collectable by mental enthusiasts e.g. one acquaintance I know with an original hatchback[2] “I would rather drive my Chevette into the sea - I will never sell it”, gotta agree . . .

The separate lump sum life insurance is brilliant. Assuming all goes well, it will be a nice initial boost to handle one off 'start of new setup' expenses and ensure a buffer of savings beyond the monthly stipend. Worst case, it can be stretched and used for critical things instead of safety and comfort.

DaPonte Quartet fired by its board
My grandmother was an incessant collector. She collected anything in the shape of a chicken or with a chicken on it, and her house was lined with shelves of chicken nick-nacks. But she also had an impressive wind-up toy collection, a collection of cherubs, a collection of supposedly collectable porcelain dolls from QVC. Probably a few others that I've forgotten.

In the last few years of her life, she became very concerned with the work her children and grandchildren would have to undertake to clean out her house. She went through and added a note on a sticker on the backs of things for who she though should get them.

But in the end it was easy. My grandmother created an order of magnitude more grief for herself worrying about cleaning up after her than actually existed. And I wish that she hadn't had that burden on her.

Most of her children and grandchildren didn't have any sentimental connection to all of the things, and those of us that did went through and grabbed what we wanted. Once that was done, we called Goodwill and they came and cleaned out the rest.
The iPhone 1 was pretty much the start of this whole revolution of mobile computing - cut it some slack. We have seen huge improvements in camera, CPU and battery performance since, so I wouldn’t be surprised if an iPhone X would work just fine a decade after, especially that there is hardly any conceivable difference between it running ios vs the newest device and also due to the whole field slowing down in improvements as we are now in the diminishing returns territory.

“Bias for action” is a nice catch phrase and not bad to get people out of paralysis.

The other successful thing to add onto it, is to tell people what you’re going to do (ex, a high level 3 step plan, not more than 5), then do it. If there are objections, ask [what can be done] to mitigate the issue instead of arguing the points.

Don’t “bias for action” and do something w/o setting expectations first.

In a very small number of cases, regional storage of data becomes regional restrictions. You see that already in how it's unlikely you will be able to access your consumer account from both Russia and the US at the same time unless you have a travel history to one or both countries. Similarly, an app storing data for EU citizens might indeed say, no, we can't share this data outside the EU, we're not allowed. How it figures out if you're outside a region is, of course, problematic.

But that's rare. Generally the data lives on a regional server and gets accessed by a CDN in a region near where the data will be delivered. If you're allowed to sign in from that region, then you're likely authorizing transfer of data (for the duration of that session) to that same region.

As for multi-region replication, it's often the case there are multiple regions in the same country - for example, us-east-1 and us-central-1. No jurisdictional problems to host the data in two regions in the same country, after all.

As to how you look up what region the user's data is stored in, well, you can keep a list of users and regions. Worst case, force the user to remember their region, and use separate copies of the website (and DNS) to pick a region to sign in on. For example, the same app/website, but at different country domains.

This is what I think .NET's generics are like. Type information including all parameters are available, and JIT does as you say. The approach has some advantages (binary size, less memory instantiations when required) but a slight cost when method is first JIT'ed. This only works for VM languages though.

I have a genuine question about this. How are we supposed to isolate user data stored in, say Postgres, by region, and still do multi-region replication, and restoring correctly? And how is the application supposed to find which region a user's record is stored?

When we had to clear out the apartment of MiL, she had a sizable collection of books, and a bunch of clothes and shoes that had only been worn once. We tried the library and a few different charity shops, but for most things they said no. The books went in the trash and the clothes went in a clothing recycling bin - which I guess means they also ended up in the trash.
Today's services are indeed much more sophisticated, but not necessarily better. This is because better and cheaper hardware made people sloppy, not because we have much better services.

On Linux, you can "lie" to the process by running it with the LD_PRELOAD environment variable set to a library that hijacks ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, ...) to return 0. If the process is smart enough to check for LD_PRELOAD as well, you might be able to use something like seccomp to hijack the return value at the OS level.

When you've got a Metasploit module for overflowing buffers in trusted enclaves by executing code that drops processor voltage, that's an interesting timeline to live in.

Maybe to make study process more pleasant for a young folks? When I remember my literature and history classes, they were so boring (teachers were excellent) that it provoked all kinds of bulling. Same to physical culture (sport) and labor culture (working with hands) and basics of safety and pre-conspriction training for young men (in these cases my teachers were... not motivated to make a good job). All of that classes I used to truant and you know what? If all that what happened to me happened in USA where it is not easy to truant, I would do maybe not shooting (no easy to access firearms) but definitely kind of massacre to my bullies and bully-sympathisers.

What tech ppl can do with that? Hm... probably go to teaching. And teachers please stop insist on studying boring classes and especially stop claiming History is not boring. Please, teach (give) Liberal Arts and nothing else and I believe most of that massacres will be gone.

How do you know?

Tether has seen over 10B in withdrawals over the last couple weeks. The total circulating supply is 73B so that was something like a 12% withdrawal over a very short time window.

Consider that banks are only required to maintain a 5% leverage ratio. 12% is a pretty extreme test, it's enough to cause most banks to fail. It also does not make sense for Tether to take on additional risk. They can make a nice yield by investing the 70B+ in very safe highly liquid short-term US treasuries.

A key driver of Go design was compiler performance. Generics make the compiler more complex, use more memory, etc. and presumably require a less performant compiler.

I don't know what the implications are for Go with generic types. Either they've convinced themselves that a fast generic capable compiler is possible or the the compiler performance goal is no longer the high priority it once was.

You wouldn't go to the gym and pump iron for 8+ hours straight and do it every single day of the month. Consider that 20% of our glucose is consumed by our brain, so obviously it is working hard. It's just not obvious as for a more labor oriented profession.

My personal solutions include:

Going to the gym or playing a game of tennis at least once or twice a week. Yes, during the working day. I prefer to code at night anyway.

Taking an hour off for lunch, during which I go for a brisk walk and pay attention to my surroundings, etc. Not stew over the latest problem.

When I catch myself spinning my wheels over some problem. I get up, walk to another desk which has no screen, keyboard etc. Take a sheet of paper, write down what the problem is. Close my eyes and let my more relaxed brain come up with a solution. Write down the solution and then go back to the desk with the computers.

Obviously YMMV, but it is helpful to recognize that when mentally fatigued, you are working sub-optimally, so why beat yourself up. Just take a break and let your brain actually rest. BTW, sleep is natures way of forcing your brain to have time out.
We seldom choose our names, ourselves. The name was chosen early on to pay due respect to the two main sources of inspiration: the TeX system and the Emacs editor. TeXmacs takes the good features of both, but just because I have the same name as your parents it does not mean I'm the same kind of person. A family is not a clone hierarchy. One can argue that Javascript also has the wrong name, there are reason for this, but usually this does not stop people to appreciate the good sides.

No it isn't; screw them? And can't they rehabilitate themselves without me?

Black is not a choice, like assaulting someone, and not some stain on your character.

We've come to the conclusion that this kind of characteristic of a person falls into a protected class, and discriminating on its basis is illegal.

From that it doesn't follow that any attribute of a person whatsoever is the marker of a protected class.
