Except that’s not “what being a broker is”, because not all brokers offer that, and not to all clients. And if you can remember back to your original comment, you were calling exchanges sleazy for not having insta-withdrawal (which they can’t in the regulated markets because of settlement time), and now you recognize this is a service provided by brokers as an abstraction on top of the actual exchange, not what said (non-shady) exchange actually offers.

Furthermore, the broker is taking a risk by extending that credit. If it were riskless, there wouldn’t be the 2 day settlement period or the requirement to post collateral (whose necessity everyone accepts with an eyeroll at those who don’t get it on the Robinhood/GME threads).
Your country's solution to keeping people at home is to pay them so bad they can't afford to leave? Sorry but that really doesn't sound good.
I've been using ESPHome for 2 years now and once you get it set up, it's definitely the most "just works" product in IoT.
Very true. I am a bit behind the author of the article in age, and in my first real adventure trip, and I can tell you it is not the same at all now. You can be on a mountaintop calling home from half way around the world. We are so tethered to smartphones, ATMs, and others to guide our treks now, or at least most people are, and we lose the ability to truly wander without interference. Solitude, not loneliness. I used to buy one-way tickets to places, go with very little cash to exchange at a bank, and make my way working here and there to make just enough to drip feed my trips.

I grew up in the late 60s/early 70s in Brooklyn. I didn't make my first trip abroad until I was 18 to England and the Netherlands. Not too exotic. Then some of the islands like Jamiaca, the DR, etc. But then I went to live in Spain in the Northern region of Huesca after touring all over Spain. What a blast. I called my Mom and Dad after being out of communication for three months. My brother, who I had not really seen a lot while in the U.S. started writing me every three or more weeks where I was living in the mountains near the French border. Then Portugal, and other European cities. Costa Rica (before Ecotourism took off), was my first foray into rainforests, jungle camping, rafting in waters with different fauna, and their ilk. I later went on to a few more places, but longer stays than 8 months or a year. I lived in Macau for six years, Indonesia for a year in a rice-farming village with dirt floors in most of the houses, and traveled to Thailand, the Philippines, and Vietnam (honeymooned there). As smartphones and the internet popped up everywhere, the experience became diluted. Yes, I climbed volcanoes, dove great reefs, camped out in cool jungles, but the individual time alone with myself and no distractions was noticeably missing. I realized this when I was able to make a Skype call almost everywhere I went, sometimes with better internet than I had in the U.S. I think the current way to get some of this back is to turn off your smartphone, or risk leaving it somewhere, and enter a less-visited place. I am old, and biased, but the gaggles of digital nomads in cafes, hammocks, and on beaches with their notebooks and tablets propped open almost makes me wish for a "Transcendence" event (the movie, not the movement, but some will argue it's the same thing), or dare I say a post-apocalyptic existence (just a daydream, not a wish!). This article warmed me over with nostalgia for this same experience. I guess there is still the ocean and the deserts, but they probably have 5G by now!
What happen if they never go public at this stage?
Fairly heavy user of ESPhome here (I have about 15 or so devices automating several parts of my home).

What would be a better option than YAML? The main advantages are ease of in-lining C++, and it's ubiquitous.

Having to use k8s at work also makes it not much of a context switch to use for me, and the secrets management is great using the `!include`s.

But yeah the killer feature here is the inlining of C++, and the use of platformio. You really can do anything without much work (maybe at most one or two external C++ header files for really custom stuff) inside ESPhome, and it's easy to see where your snippets go when you inspect the generated C++ code.

ESPHome just automates all the super tedious parts of working with esp32s (stuff like connecting to wifi, MQTT, OTA upgrades, logging to mqtt, etc), without sacrificing any power.

My only complaint is that because it uses arduino (I think?) you can't really do powersaving really well, but I don't think many people use battery powered esp32, but this basically eliminates that possibility, at least in my research.

Adobe Flash.

I don't care how many issues it has. It was the last tool that made creative web and game design possible without needing to be a full stack JS developer.

Part of the reason the web looks like a wasteland of responsive templates from 2012 is because the death of Flash changed how we wasted time on the Internet. Gone are the games and artistic experiences. In its place came content mills churning out GIF-laden quizzes, listicles and newsletters with a ton of ads littering every page. Buzzfeed is now a publicly traded company on the basis of how well it flattened Internet culture into it's one-size fits-all world.

I understand you don't mean that literally, but (to minimize disinformation among others): There is absolutely some number of lives saved which would compensate for that.

You don’t grok “the enterprise”. Any CTO of a large company would feel much better about having VMWare behind them and their ecosystem than your proposed solution.

“No one ever got fired for buying IBM” applies equally to big enterprise SaaS providers and companies like Oracle, Microsoft, VMWare, Salesforce, etc.

Yes - countries with capital controls and/or corruption problems make life harder in many ways. But I'm not sure I understand why stablecoins make that any less of a problem when compared with holding USD in a US based account - unless the point is to avoid AML/KYC requirements.

Same for larger amounts and sending money internationally - I've done both quite frequently, and it's much cheaper to do than using crypto would be.
Wow! Thanks for sharing not heard of this, nice it’s designed for bare metal
Have you ever donated 10s of thousands to a political campaign? For anything congressional-level or lower, this gets you calls from the politician, face-to-face access, emails, meetings, and up-to-date info. You will soon be fielding calls from people you haven't donated to, who think you may donate, and they will also listen to you.

And this is for congressional-level. For state senate, state house, local gov, etc. I imagine this could go even further. City councils and mayors have lots of impact but little donations.
The changes Germany made heavily made me think of the "well armed and regulated militia" mentioned in the US' 2nd amendment.

One cannot say something is regulated without admitting fault and adjusting when needed until the issue appears less and less.
Neat! Does it have any compelling features over e.g. geogebra, or inkscape? It looks very minimalistic.

Proton is not perfect, but nothing is.

If you are looking for a mechanism for why a healthy vascular system protects against alzheimers there's a pretty good candidate here.

My TL;DW is:

* Most neurodegenerative diseases are associated with a buildup of proteins.

* The brain does not have the lymphatic system which cleans waste proteins out of other organs.

* Instead it has cerebro-spinal fluid, which may have some of the same function.

* There's no "CSF-heart" that pumps CSF around the brain.

* Instead the pulse in the arteries has an indirect pumping effect because the arteries in the brain are embedded in CSF.

* Therefore having a healthy pulse/blood circulation serves to
help clean the brain.

* But only when you sleep, so don't skimp on the sleep time HN-readers!
It used to. But this emulation worked by doing set_fs() so that the internal (outdated) read/write implementation could follow a pointer into kernel memory, and that facility is gone now.
What do you mean with that?

From what I understand, there are legitimate issues around Protonmail and its affiliation with government agencies [1]. It’s not as if it’s impossible to find a different provider that does better in this regard.

Don't like the lecturing tone of this article.

This seems entirely successful to me and retired crappy and insecure behavior.

The idea that you can never break anything means that some historical mistakes can never get fixed.

The someone complains about how the language / operating system is a bolted on mess of nonsense and people go chasing after the next hot thing which has the benefit of just being newer and being able to get away with breaking changes because people on the bleeding edge put up with it.

The linux kernel is probably striking the right balance here, and I doubt that this one breakage is a sign of the decay and downfall of the Empire.

It isn't a 1:1 alternative, but I've always thought that ESPhome would be much more accessible for the non-devs if they introduced a GUI similar to Home Assistant's automation GUI.

I've heard that that's very lucrative. So much so that I've read accounts by more than one who finds creating such art (and the customers) disgusting, but can't stop because of the huge market demand.
Maybe there’s a trick with Euclidean geometry and gravitational lensing where you fly one direction, turn ninety degrees and scan a supermassive black hole for signals.
I strongly second this; their guides and advice have helped me focus my career and delve into potentially high impact pathways. They do skew a bit longtermist (think AI safety), but they have guides and jobs for all sorts of high impact roles.
There have been liquidity events before, which allowed old enough employees to sell shares. You will find that many a former employee has managed to leave while being able to exercise their options and have a partial cash out with a lot of money to spare. So it’s not been an exercise of keeping employees tied down. A visibility one is Will Larson: You bet that he didn’t leave without being able to sell shares to cover AMT, and getting some immediate payout.

As for why stay private, what John C has said publicly is that they still see a lot of growth to go, and that not having to provide detailed financian statements to the general public, which would include competitors, is a competitive advantage. It seems believable to me.
Probably a reaction to the ever growing complexity of software systems.

Heh, as someone who maintains another exotic debugger[1] my experience has been that the kernel development process is kind of a pain. We've had good experiences with people fixing regressions once they're discovered but getting new features into the kernel has been difficult. I think it took 10 revisions for me to get cpuid faulting into the kernel, including multiple review cycles where I was first told "change X to Y" and then in a subsequent cycle told "change Y to X".

Each crypto market crash has only been a temporary set back. Market cap could drop 75% and still bounce back within the year.

The hyper-competitive and trustless nature of crypto rewards the most elite projects staffed by +4 SD minds. It’s like how Quant funds are a darwinian bloodbath.

The only way crypto is going away for good is replacement by vastly better technology or assets.

Hm. If someone in their 20s is able to make a major discovery for a problem they only heard of when they were 18, that is maximum 12 years of that line of research, which could certainly be replicated by someone older.

you also see people in their 20s make big contributions to many disparate fields, like Tao.

You will have to farm a bit in late game if you want to try out different equipment. Because due to yet another stupid leveling system, any gear that isn’t upgraded is worse than the shittiest club with upgrades. So if you want to try anything else in the end game you need to go farm runes to buy stones to upgrade your weapons. Not terribly slow, but annoying and it could have been avoided entirely.
> This exists since 2013.

Good to know, but maybe it’s not my fault that I assumed an official post by the Perl Steering Committee on perl.org would show the best solution.

> Exists. Wouldn't be Perl if one hadn't the choice between multiple solutions.

That’s great, but you might notice that you’ve given me, who is new to these approaches in Perl, exactly no information on where to start.

> It is evident.

Yes, I was very transparent about the extent and recency of my experience. Luckily, that combative attitude to a mostly interested/positive comment isn’t representative of the Perl community as a whole, or there really wouldn’t be any users left.
Also TechCongress, Presidential Innovation Fellowship, and a few others that have popped up with similar missions/goals. OpenPhilanthropy may do a tech policy fellowship again, if you're in the UK I believe there's a No10 fellowship
+1 on this. Previously worked in the developer tools division that builds VS, and whenever someone got assigned to work on a performance or crash bug you'd almost always wind up hearing them mutter "it's f*cking ReSharper again". The VS team has had a huge push in the last few years to improve code analysis, introspection, and refactoring (with Roslyn) specifically to try to replace / kill ReSharper. The company has no animus with JetBrains, and the team has nothing but respect for the value it's added to the ecosystem, but it's by far the biggest source of perf and crash issues in VS.

I know people feel like they just can't possibly live without it, but the refactoring tools in VS nowadays are much better, so I encourage folks to test drive by going a couple weeks without installing ReSharper. If you still really miss it and are willing to pay the performance penalty to have it after that, go for it. But give VS a fair shake without it.

We've recovered air trapped in ice cores up to 2 million years old.

Odds are if there had been an advanced ancient civilization of any size (and an advanced one is going to tend to be large) and for any length of time, they'd have done quite a bit of lead smelting (lead's really useful and super-easy to smelt... shame it's poisonous), and we'd see it in the ice core record.

Let alone something like fossil fuel use. Plus probably dozens of other markers of iron-age industry or later, that I don't know about.

I very much doubt any very-ancient humans/hominids got past Bronze Age tech, at best. If I had to place a bet on it, I'd bet against them having gotten past stone-age tech at all. I think we'd see evidence of it.
I mean, they are legally obligated to. At least they are not selling my data to advertisers or arbitrarily locking me out of my account like google. Hell, i'd pay for their premium service if wasn't so expensive and they accepted anonymous payments through monero or something.

To me the crucial thing to point out is that 1/3 != 1/6, even if in the example it’s the same “one” (person). Otherwise 1/n would be the same for any n — just add more people. Admittedly it’s hard to wrap one’s head around that, given the presentation, if one is new to fractions.
A simple policy that both set_fs() calls need to happen within the same function body with corresponding CI test based on AST/DWARF inspection would have also prevented it. Do you really want to rely on stack unwinding/destructors for security sensitive code when stack is usually the first thing that gets controlled by the attacker? Exception handling (SEH) on Windows is an exploitation vector of it's own.
Hah, auditors get paid by their clients. There's a real conflict of interest there. Fines are usually a fraction of what the audit fees over years are as well. Good luck finding fraud with that kind of system.

After Columbine, the standard police doctrin for a school shooting is to interfere with the shooter as quickly and as much as possible. If an officer is armed, they should engage the shooter as quickly as possible to draw fire away from the kids and to pin them in place.

Considering how well armed and trained the police force was in this town [1], it was a complete failure of police response. The police had the means (they had ar-15 in their cars and on their persons) and the training, yet chose to do nothing should be a lesson to all the “armed citizen” wannabes.

It's been discussed several times... Many people are "trapped" into cryptos and can not get out (for example because their bank will close their account and kick them out if they do anything crypto related). So in several countries it's only when you sell for a currency that is legal tender that it's a taxable event. It's the case in France and, if I'm not mistaken, it's been clarified that it's now also the case in Germany.

It makes sense in a world where people are taking a very big risk by selling for a "stable" coin. For the last thing you'd want is people selling BTC for Luna / UST, and then owing the state, say, 100 K EUR, only to then see Luna going to zero. Some of these people would have their lives ruined if the taxable event happens before they're able to cash out to a currency that is "real".

If anything the Luna / UST fiasco as shown to many that it makes sense to only tax when something is sold for a real currency and not for monopoly money.
