Do you live in Europe? Car trips and plane trips are not interchangeable over here. If people ditch their cars, they won't be taking the plane instead, they would only take planes for long distances. If they have those means, it's most likely they're already taking the plane for it.

Furthermore, short haul flights are being banned in Europe.
That’s Reddit. On HN I sometimes find people with niche interests and expertise in all kinds of fields, which I like. It’s also relatively civilized. You don’t need to be a 4-chan edgelord to be not-normie.

'Our investors can't get out' is an absolutely terrible justification for doing ultra high risk investments.

'We have a long-term horizon', which in this context can easily translate into 'by the time this blows up everyone responsible will have long left the company / vested their bonuses' is hardly better.

The only good justification for doing high risk investments is 'our investors know, they understand the risks and they want us to do this'.
Difference here is I don't think the government is going to step in and regulate them so they're safer. I think the government is going to treat this all as fraud eventually

In the absence of an explicit regulatory framework, legality can probably only be determined after negative outcomes, unfortunately.

It also seems like without catastrophic retail investment losses, politically there isn‘t much to gain with implementing such a regulation, and potentially much to lose. Reacting too late to prevent harm seems to be the logical outcome.
A very large percentage of VC funds are funded by large assets managers, such as pension funds, state investment and sovereign wealth funds.

When you manage hundreds of billions you need to diversify your investments across asset classes and risk profiles. Putting 1% into high risk VC funds makes a lot of sense.
You have only that much of momentum from ground in comparison to something already in the air and just falling down.

We currently have a billion cars on the road. Of course we have plenty of accidents.

But that's not a valid comparison.

And perhaps we should also get rid of carsnow your argument is totally invalid
I assume he meant drops to 3k - 4k in 2018
That's true, but the short-term choice is mainly between 70MM ICE cars vs 70MM EVs, because car-dependent urban sprawl has already been built, and people living there are very strongly opposed to even smallest changes in urbanization.
Also how does this tiny company get access to 5nm manufacturing capability?
Bitcoin is at 24k now, down 20% in a few days... at 21K the Microstrategy margin call kicks in. That may cause 130000 bitcoin to be dumped onto the market.

This is what I call a significant bear case.

And heavy industry also depends on natural gas.
You can check the numbers yourself on https://climobil.connecting-project.lu, comparing the ICE and BEV version of the same car (e.g. Volkswagen e-up offers both) and choosing the country where you would charge the vehicle. Poland seems the only country where the ICE comes out ahead I think. Note that this also includes the emissions for the battery production.

As stated in the document, the audit firm is required by law "to obtain evidence about Management Assertion".

well, if people decided to trust them even without the audit, then what's to say that it should be illegal? Investments have always been caveat emptor.

Being independent? US, China and Russia project this image of great power but they can hardly project it, as evidenced most recently in Ukraine.
This isn't a normal asset, the value of which can fluctuate over time without harm, once tether dips below $0.999 on the open market it becomes profitable to buy on the open market and redeem them directly from Tether. Given that Tether's reserves clearly do not match the totality of all Tethers issued, that means that right now it is profitable to force Tether to burn through their currency reserves, bringing it closer to collapse.

Possibly a more accurate title would be Right now it is profitable to help put Tether out of business.

The evidence for an attestation is getting a look at bank balances.

An audit would determine where the money came from, who has claims on it, etc.

> So far you have not provided any evidence about Gemini lying, just whataboutism about Tether.

Calling an attestation an audit is a lie. Tether provides a concrete example of why attestations are not sufficient; an audit would've revealed the shenanigans with transfers in and out, and that's likely why they never completed one despite promising regular audits on their home page for years.
Do these line up with major markets downtowns? Fwiw, all major markets are down like 3% (so far) today. Crypto behaves more like a stock and typically when there are market downturns the more volatile stocks are impacted much more.
Assuming you can easily get parts.
It could be that was the original intention for just that? But some large 'it must run' program depended on that behavior?

I ended up in something similar with a prog I was working on. I had used some pre-release APIs. By the time they shipped win95 those APIs no longer existed, docs removed and the items purged from the headers. I did not have the luxury of calling someone in MS and saying 'fix that'.

The win16 way was to dig and bend it, mangle, until it worked. The win32 way was a bit lest flexible.
no, I didn't - although admittedly I left that data point out to achieve a more shocking progression, if I'm being honest LOL

but the point is still very self evident even with that data point.
How many championships are there? The video mentions another certification (?) class ("tournament") that's presumably no less official than the "championship" one, just less exclusive. And there you have the answer: exclusivity.

Keeping an artificially scarce class of artisanal playpieces around to fill the upper market niche that is still focused on clean line functionality and standards seems like a very clever way to keep the higher priced market segment from losing itself even more than it already does in fancy novelty designs.

Strategies that good rarely get invented, usually they are chance discoveries. They should absolutely keep this up, it's good for the game.
You can get a dollar for a dollar, it's just not worthwhile to do so yet for arbitrageurs due to the tiny magnitude of the drift. Tether actually depegging happens when someone tries to redeem with them and they can't do it, the market price is misleading.

An analogous money market fund example would be if I can't redeem until tomorrow noon yet need to urgently meet some financing need today, I could sell to someone for a tiny discount and they can redeem tomorrow.

It seems very likely that the market cap for high-end wooden sets is not large enough for automation. It makes sense that for this particular niche, they'd be hand made. To fill in some other bits:

The pieces need to be rather precisely formed, because the players' pattern matching can be greatly bothered by anomalies in their shapes. I can only speak of the lower ranks of competitive chess, but you'd generally get tons of practice with good quality plastic sets, which are extremely uniform. If you are not used to playing on a variety of different types of sets, the quality of your play could easily be impacted. I recall looking for a new set many years ago with my brother, and having reviewed dozens of hand made sets with a variety of irritating issues, we ended up specifically hunting for a set that wasn't hand made, for this very reason.

Another good question is why they need to be made out of wood for high-end competitions. I am guessing it's just a fashion / elitist statement.
Don't worry this is a liveline - not a deadline. It will be postponed to 2045 and then 2055, etc
I mean that it turns out the value of BTC is at least half backed by the original system, just skipping over the standard guarantees. And every other drop in stablecoins affects BTC further. That means for all the tech behind it, the value actually relies on good old fat funds that we hope are legit (but have no way to check)

Most transfers still happen off-network, so it's back to the double entry. Not that BTC is triple entry in any way - there's still two parties on each spend entry.
And you think that having the same amount of air taxies in the air that. SUVs on the street would still make the SUVs look bad?

Again at least with streets I know that an SUV will only crash close to streets with an air taxi it could crash everywhere.

Can we protect a kindergarden from an accidental SUV acceleration? Of course we can. Easy.

I firmly believe crypto is useless. Unlike gold (with metallic and useful properties) or other floated currencies that map back to an economy. Crypto essentially represents spent energy.

If crypto, esp BTC was able to be back converted into the energy used to produce it, that'd be great. But it can't so it's just a net negative IMO.
There's no depeg, the market it's just stressed and probably some people are just selling it bellow price while panicking.

Past data pretty much never predict sudden big jumps in value of financial products. Those are fat tailed and one may need literally trillions of data points to infer their probability distribution.
Can you fight fire with fire? Can't you spam trustpilot with 5 stars reviews for your own business? Can they delete all of the spams? If you don't pay them to get 'verified' then drown out any bad reviews with good ones. Looking at how garbage their spam filters are it's not impossible.
That's fine. The biggest problem right now is getting people actually review their dependencies. If cargo-vet can make that easier by removing hassle of signatures and WoT, it's still a huge benefit to the community. It's possible to make cargo-vet <> cargo-crev export tools.
Biking is not convenient/practical enough therefore not enough people will do it to justify large investment. This is why billions for a subway station make sense while parking spots and bike lanes would be way better utilized as restaurant patios in dense cities.
All of crypto is collapsing, because people have finally caught on that they're all scams and schemes. There's nothing of any value there and never was. When that happens, it's impossible to get the "to the moon" (bigger fool scams) BS rolling.

Tried to follow this link on my phone and the browser blew up, so I'll look when I'm home. Doubtless in both cases (Rust and C++) people who are much smarter than me have reasoned that it's correct and perhaps if I read the link I'll agree. But if you just asked me off the cuff my guess would have been this wasn't safe and so they should be Acquire-Release.
Seems bullshit, it's obviously impossible to beat both state of the art CPUs, GPUs and even TPUs (lol) with a single architecture.

They can maybe do that if the architecture is configurable and they are using different configurations for their CPU, GPU and TPU competitors, but then it's still highly implausible that they can deliver more than 2x improvement over competitors, unless perhaps if it also costs proportionally more (but even then, you get decreasing yields for larger chips and inefficiencies if you make an SMP system).
It's not even worse. MakerDAO (creators of DAI) is a solid protocol. DAI is backed by collateralized debt position with automated liquidations. if the value of a CDP holders assets drop below a threshold, they get liquidated automatically. DAI was born in 2017 when ETH was $1450 and survived the drawdown to $80.

If you put in $3K of ETH and borrow $1500, then your ETH collateral falls to 150% of your loan ($2275), you will get liquidated, and your collateral will be sold immediately to pay your debt. These mechanics are fully on-chain and fully automated by keepers (a liquidation can be triggered by anyone and they earn penalty fees for doing so).

The system is not without risks, but those are well known to all.
I guess because it seems so entirely content-free. It's riffing entirely on the title of the post — the words "explain" and "mystery" — and not on the actual subject, which is glass. All the other (human, presumably) commentators responded to the subject, and talked about glass.

It's as if I said to you "Guess what? I just landed the job of my dreams!" and you replied "Guessing is an interesting pastime, people have been doing that for thousands of years."

To an AI it might seem like your comment followed mine, but a human would walk away from you.

Current backups are in close relatives. They'll take a sample of feces from a relative, liquify it and remove solids, and seed your rear end with the results.

Nothing is 100% safe, but >150% overcollateralization is a rather decent buffer, even after accounting for crypto volatility. As a comparison, banks usually operate with less than 5% equity, and that's based on rather optimistic book values, as indicated by often significantly lower market capitalizations.

> Hydration in the current sense is re-running most of what the server already did, to recreate the runtime state it already had.

It’s interesting that the problems with hydration is in some sense caused by the insistence on one-way data binding (deriving the view from the state). I imagine that with two-way data binding then you’d just need to attach event handlers and then the state would be derived from the view on the next interaction. Maybe.
I live in Chile. In practice you would lock up (and even set up your lights with an endemic light timer so it looks like you're home) and the alternative is homelessness. Actual homelessness, not eviction. You still pay rent, only there's no roof over your head. You'd be homeless, not evicted. The ruins of your former house are a better home than the street. Shit in the corner, rebuild, that sort of thing. In practice you would not leave for vacations and for sure exercise right to bear arms, that's what's up. The police will ALWAYS tell you you're in safe hands with them don't get a gun in urban areas. They'll say it'll be used against you. I guess it could if you're a wimp. Yeah I'm such a wimp, the thug will walk right up while I do nothing but hold the gun, suck the bullets out of the barrel with his powerful lungs, and spit them out back at me!
I was surprised by the "TrustPilot doesn't own the reviews" section.

It seems like the important word in the legalese you posted above is "non-exclusive."

Say a user wrote a review on TrustPilot, and copy/pasted it to an email to the business. Then the business posted the review from the email on their website. Are they now violating TrustPilot's TOS?
You're not going to take the car when you can take a plane either.
I've no doubt they are doing that right now, they would be insane not to. It is presumably what they did to restore confidence during last month's price dip. The problem arises if (my guess is when) they no longer have the funds to do so.
They even go as far to say that it can affect the game. But they don't really articulate why or how. They sort of imply that it's less likely a player will make a mistake mixing up the pieces - but I find that incredibly hard to believe for this level of players.
Any comparison that ignores the fact that banks have the FDIC backing up their depositors is a poor one.

What is your reason for skepticism of lithium batteries? The Australian megapack that caught fire during debugging? Hoverboards on airplanes?

I ask because I have a powerwall under the floor where i'm sitting right now and zero hesitation about it.

Indeed, with my ~6.5kw nominal solar, I am essentially net neutral.

The car in my driveway has a lithium battery 5x the size and hits 50 degrees during this heat wave. It also charges at about 3x the rate.

So the relatively cool crawlspace seems like a totally normal place to discharge at 5kw?

If you go with another chemistry, I think you'll find that cycling from 100% to 0-20% daily will not last for many years..
Yeah. I wonder if its a classic VLIW or if the pipeline is exposed and/or skewed.

exposed: The results of operations that take more than one clock cycle don't necessarily appear at their destination the cycle after the instruction is executed. Think branch delay slots but potentially for multiplies and loads too.

skewed: Loads, processing, and stores can happen on subsequent clock ticks so simple loops don't necessarily need prologues and epilogues.

A compiler can handle either of these for a particular CPU pretty easily but they tend to eliminate binary compatibility. Code morphing as in the Transmeta lineage like to use both of these. Other VLIWs with barrel multithreading, like the Hexagons DSPs in Snapdragon SOICs, don't need them.

EDIT: The Mill guys have a video on how this works on their system. They've got their own names for things for some reason but they do a good job of explaining how this all works: https://millcomputing.com/docs/execution/
General sluggishness, really really slow library scans, choppyness etc. I run Emby in the same VM and it works flawlessly.
