Are you implying that it is inherently racist to call a Korean person by their name?
For context, OP is CTO of an NFT company. Doesn't determine which way intent goes in this post, but you've gotta believe this to take such a strong financial stake in the space.
I don't - yet - but I can see why it may not be worth it. In short its just not that big of an improvement to justify the cons. But that's just my impression; I'm interested in hearing others.
As a related aside:

The word “magi” is plural for “magus” which means “astrologer”. In the Bible, God condemned all forms of astrology or similar “fortune telling” (e.g. see Deuteronomy 18:10-12). Thus, these astrologers were not some sort of God-ordained “wise men” as many believe. The “star” the astrologers initially followed was for the purpose of leading them and the child to King Herod, who planned to kill the child. God eventually intervened though to foil what was initially an evil plan.
What are the proposed alternatives to individualism? Collectivism? No thanks. I've seen what that does to the human spirit.

I'd rather take an extremely individualist culture and then fill in the gaps with taxation and some level of wealth redistribution.

Have you heard of puns before?

I think it's manifest that they aren't implying that. They said directly that the pun is the part they found objectionable.
As a Linux user who has run a Mac daily for work before, I don't really feel this at all.

To me, the core of the Linux experience consists mostly of things that are not part of macOS:

- uniform, comprehensive, robust package management, including for the system software
- GNU coreutils and related utilities (sed, grep, find, etc.)
- good filesystems
- 'root is root'; no policy or other bullshit restricting what root can do by default
- lots of featureful, performant terminal emulators (to the point that the DE default is almost always fine)
- some choice w/r/t desktop experience
- popular apps don't just entirely stop working between OS releases
- pretty much everything is discoverable and configurable if you're determined

Those are given more or less in order of importance, or how essential they are to the Linux experience to me. They don't include any specific complaints about the macOS desktop on its own terms, or things that I miss from my favorite desktop environment (Plasma). But I have plenty of both of those as well.

Using Linux just feels good to me, and using macOS really doesn't, even after a year or more 'living in it' every day. Uniform, automated software management is at the heart of it for me. But regardless, using macOS doesn't really feel similar to using Linux to me, even with highly opinionated desktop environments which are not my favorites, like GNOME.
The way I think of it, risk of accident of the delivery truck, the risk of the farm getting their crops ruined, risk of insolvency or net x day term payments, risk of loans taken out to cover patented seeds, risk of expired food.

If nobody wanted to take the risk to plant each time given the potential ROI, you wouldn't get grocery items?

You completely ignored the "whole system performance" part of my statement. What percentage of your CPU time is spent running SIMD-optimized implementations of Quicksort? Now apply Amdahl's law.
The fact that the data is in available to the public does not mean that everyone can access it.

If identity is decentralized, individuals are free to create as many personas as they want. So you get privacy by creating one exclusive identity for each new relationship you have, and using that identity's "public key" to interact with the chain.

And if later on you'd like to present some type of "you" as a an aggregation of these identities, you can do it with a keybase-style system.

The very fact that pine64 exists at all is amazing. The amount of negativity regarding software support is just expecting too much from this company in its infancy. No it's not Apple. No it's not Samsung.

And while farming may seem like back-breaking labor to the Aeron chair set, it’s really not that bad. You are tied to the land, but in the scenario that’s under discussion a Disney cruise vacation isn’t in the cards anyhow. You’ll want to have draft animals though of course as tractor replacements.
Interesting results: I tried "a train entering a station" and "a train in the countryside". Both images showed a track with rails and some kind of distortion (somewhat reminiscent of speed, more so the first one), but no train, omitting the subject in favour of circumstances.

So, a touch of Rain, Speed and Steam?

So I tried "a train speeding in rain" and got a somewhat car-like out of the window view on a rainy landscape, with a hint of rails somewhat mangled into what looked more like a road for automobiles to me. — However, no Turner… ;-)

It also has the Byzantine problem where if you have enough wealth and your web is covetous enough, they can conspire to trick you into giving away financial information.

The birth of brand names was all about attaching enough status to a product line that if you ever broke that trust, that you harm yourself more than you did the customers. CAs are built on that idea. But then so is BP, 3M, and DuPont. So was Hooker Chemical Company (Love Canal), and Montrose Chemical Corp (DDT dumping off California). So I don't know what that really buys you.

I do think that trust in certificates needs to be incremental, especially when they change. And perhaps you need a way to ask your savvy friend to take a hard look at some and be able to veto them.
The problem isn't having multiple engines, it's Webkit specifically, I'm fine coding for Firefox and Chrome.

I read this recently and found it weird that it ends by saying Rust enables message-passing. It sort of seems like the opposite. Rust will fight you to the death to ensure you don't have concurrency bugs even in single threaded applications or applications in which threads only communicate by copying data into and out of queues. When you do copy the data, it will insist that you use its global allocator containing synchronization primitives instead of a per-thread allocator.
This is really the same argument as "let's legalize heroin, as long as you sign a form saying you know what you're doing."

Maybe that's not a problem for you.
Pure gasoline is good for about 6 months. E10 is good for about 3 because ethanol is so hydrophilic. Fuel stabilizer can stretch that to a couple years, but gas stations generally don’t use it.
Yeah, that's a nice restatement. Additionally, it's a lot easier to find liveness violations than safety violations. If your system deadlocks, it's obvious (not so much if it livelocks), and you can see which parts are deadlocked. If your system corrupts data, it's not always obvious, and even when it is obvious that there was corruption, it's not always obvious where it happened.
IMO the bigger scam here was not Anchor but Stablegains. They gave magnitudes more everyday people access to the Anchor scam who had no idea what they were getting in to.

For the people who actually went through the process of opening a Coinbase account, depositing USD, buying UST, transferring to an Ethereum wallet, bridging to a Terra wallet via shuttle bridge, and depositing in Anchor protocol… they knew full well the risks involved.

If you read any crypto forum, the people there know very well that their investment could go to zero.

The SEC’s “accredited investor” laws are often criticized as discriminatory, since they legally restrict some of the best investment opportunities to only the 1%. In the same vein, while the crypto space needs more regulation, I think it would be a mistake to ban all retail investors from buying crypto.

I think it's manifest that they are. This person doesn't find puns as a linguistic tool to be offensive. Their angle is that the use of a Korean name to address a Korean person with that name makes this pun racist.

If I made a pun about a guy named John is that racist? The only way that could be justified is if you somehow think it's shameful to be named John for some weird racial reason.

Found the same story published 3 years ago with better title: "Study finds racial bias in tweets flagged as hate speech"

https://as.cornell.edu/news/study-finds-racial-bias-tweets-f...

>“When we as researchers, or the people we pay online to do crowdsourced annotation, look at these tweets and have to decide, ‘Is this hateful or not hateful?’ we may see language written in what linguists consider African American English and be more likely to think that it’s something that is offensive due to our own internal biases,” Davidson said. “We want people annotating data to be aware of the nuances of online speech and to be very careful in what they’re considering hate speech.”

The actual paper says more:

https://arxiv.org/pdf/1905.12516.pdf

> many of the AAE tweets also use words like “n*gga” and “b*tch”, and are thus frequently associated with the hate speech and offensive classes
The original paper (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1905.12516.pdf) draws a different conclusion from what the article claims. Read Section 5 (Discussion) for details. Also, the analysis seems to be limited to looking at just two words, and to two groups (black and white), so I'm not sure how this generalizes. (the latter also makes the title of the post incorrect)

The OP post is also a right-wing-nonsense website that can't even get the affiliation of the authors correct ("University of Cornell").

Mods, please replace the link with a link to the paper, or to a more reputable academic source.

Your interpretation of the trail must have missed something. We know that all turning of a bike is via countersteering. You wouldn't be able to turn right on a bike whose steering is locked out from turning left. (See video upthread.)
Would love to dive in looking into the data, but I don't understand it. Could someone share how to "read" the data file both from non-technical and technical perspective. Right now not sure how to interpret the data and I also do not have a biology/gene background.
But that was my whole point, that in practice, successful companies seem to be run by the engineer, and not by some business type and a good CTO of some sort. I even forgot Mark Zuckerberg in my original post.

So it seems that at the top level, you need to understand the engineering part to be successful.

My guess is that the leader needs to have a vision for the product, market, but also the development. And if the last part is lacking, you cannot make up for it in the lower levels.

Or maybe it's because an engineer better understands what can and can't be build, and so has a more realistic vision for the product to build. A non-engineer always needs to backtrack with an engineer how possible something is.

Can you tell if that's all it does? I don't know what all geolocation covers in Android terms, but it would certainly be a superset of just scanning for BlueTooth.

I would be curious if it does any or all of:

- Fetching GPS coordinates, which are typically to many decimal places.
- Making API requests to external servers that you don't own.

A tool like MobSF (https://mobsf.github.io) might be very enlightening to understand what a given app does, or at least can do. I've tinkered a bit with an iOS app in it, but not Android so far.

Also, proxying your device through Burp Suite or ZAP could also be interesting to see what traffic occurs, especially if the developers weren't picky about valid TLS certificates.
Broadly classifying everything as a general partnership is not going to happen. Number one, there are already states such as Wyoming that have laws on the books allowing you to register a DAO as a DAO LLC. Number two, much of crypto is international and lawsuit will have no jurisdiction there.
Aiotense - Time Processing Tool
Let's diversify our hacker news with this publication about aiotense.

GitHub - https://github.com/Animatea/aiotense
Documentation - https://animatea.github.io/aiotense/

aiotense is a tool that converts a string like "1day1minute 20seconds" into number of seconds or timedelta objects.
- If you need case insensitivity, you can use resolvers.
- Custom parsing sequence - custom resolvers.
- Need to convert result to string? You can write your own converter by inheriting `aiotense.application.ports.converters.AbstractConverter`.
- Need to cache the result? Write your own parser by inheriting `aiotense.application.ports.parsers.AbstractParser`.

aiotense has been designed with maximum flexibility, practicality and user friendliness in mind. I hope our project helped you or you were just interested in seeing it.
whats wrong with it
There’s a perception that big tech pays longtime employees less than they’re willing to offer new candidates, making promotion or job hopping the best ways to earn the current market rate. And if you copy Google’s promo process, you get promo-driven development, because there aren’t enough projects that actually need that level of complexity.
M1 has meant shifting some dependencies, slower builds that need to build from source, updating databases out of band, and container crashes from poor x86 emulation.
It’s dated, and the subject has shifted to processor design, but

The Apple Product Cycle (https://misterbg.org/AppleProductCycle.html)

still sums it all up pretty well.
They have to be renominated every 4 year term.

He served out his 2nd term and was not renominated.

Not arguing that it wasn’t political, it clearly is even based on the Biden nomination.
Are you now or have you ever been an adherent of "Leave me the hell alone" libertarianism? I'm sympathetic to it presently and I have been in the past, but I must admit that I struggle mightily to view any segment of the past 40 years in meatspace as anything approaching a shrine to that philosophy. I'd actually find it much easier to say the exact opposite in fact, and I do believe that what's happening in crypto is in large part a backlash to that.

The entire point of it being in crypto of course is that the same people and forces that push back so hard against it in meatspace are relatively powerless to do so in the cyptosphere.

For better or worse, I can't see that changing any time soon. I was in a meeting at a very large crypto exchange recently and their branded coffee cups all had a very simple message; "freedom is here". That's basically at the core of everything happening in the space, and I don't think arguing against it is going to work in any way shape or form given the polarised attitude toward the philosophy on either side of the cyptosphere border.

Like it or not, it's not going away, and it's swinging more towards extreme individualism by the day, not less.
"Hamlet (the man) is dominated by an emotion which is inexpressible, because it is in excess of the facts as they appear."

That's exactly what I like about it!
I’m not interested in a factual dispute over what the GP claimed. I’m only pointing out that they clearly took issue with the pun, and not the name itself.
The solution might be to have HN allow editorializing of paper titles. Papers are generally less clickbaity but their titles are impossible.
The headline struck me as unusually crass for HN even before I saw the parent comment. I was a bit surprised it wasn’t rewritten. So, I guess I’m a second person.

Maybe it’s generational, but I was taught to avoid using names in puns. I definitely grew up with people who would make last name puns like this to put undue emphasis on race.

If folks doesn’t even see why that would be a problem these days, I’ll take it as a win for society - but I think the question was in good faith.

classical case of worse is better. I'd never use homebrew, but all my colleagues do, and I observe their daily struggles.
I believe it was Bruce Schneier who coined the term "movie-plot threat" for a kind of security threat that gets more attention, not because it's plausible and around the corner, but because it excites our imagination the most.

It seems that there's something similar here. For most of the world, it's just natural that your government provides you with identity proof. USA and maybe other anglo countries could be the exception, although other times the question was discussed, I was told that, even if there is no official id card, other means like SS numbers provide an equivalent mechanism.

The movie plot, in which you are framed for some heinous crime and you need to go full Jason Bourne, is what justifies having a handful of fake passports, of course guns and a sizeable reserve of cash in a hole in the woods. Now it would be your bitcoin wallet and some sovereign identity keys in USB drives.

We need a balance of the various ideologies, and not the extremism of any one ideology.

Actually I think that those extreme views are a reaction to one ideology adopted by all mainstream parties. You see that no matter what you vote, you're going to be screwed, so you turn to fringe options.
Some good points. I think a major problem is with the word "identity",
is that there are always (at least two) meanings that may or may not
intersect. We have self-regarding identities and other-regarding
identities. The set of things we define about ourselves that includes
beliefs, intentions, secrets and so on may be (for secrets must be)
disjoint from the set of things others attribute to us, reputation,
observed history, expectations and so on - though a mature, well
integrated, social person could be expected to have a high
intersection.

If we try to conflate those kinds of identity problems arise because
people who are young, vulnerable, transient, in crisis need to be able
to revise both kinds. Unless we are wanted criminals we have a right
to be forgotten. And we all have a right to change our minds about
things and re-invent ourselves.

I think we don't yet have a mature enough understanding of what
identity really means for human beings to get successful digital
mileage except in a few limited applications like payment systems or
session management. Perhaps that's why the concept of "identity
politics" is so prominently at play.

Thank you, decided on it.
I feel like the "Anonymity [is] central to the crypto world." ship sailed a long time ago. It was one of the original promises of Bitcoin but it is literally a public database.

It's also possible that a society with more transparency regarding financial transactions is the better option long-term, but surrendering the dream of anonymity is a tough one for proponents.
Yeap. This is the usual response when you criticize the US. "Then move to Canada, Europe, etc."
I was thinking collision due to a new commit causing a hash that equals an already existing hash. Just by chance, but in the course of normal use.
> But crypto is a technology and financial crime existed well before the advent of crypto and will continue to exist whether crypto keeps existing or not.

Sure. The difference is, crypto has no other useful use except crime.

> for the first time engineers can hack on finance without any permission, licenses, approvals, regulations, borders, etc.

Regulations exist for a reason. Even beyond regulations, one of the (many) appalling aspects of crypto is it's rediscovering rules that have been extremely well known and documented for decades, or centuries. Terra-Luna is a perfect example of a death spiral, for example.

> I want to see how this experiment turns out.

Isn't it clear already how this experiment is turning out? How many more time do we need?
