This paper acts like it's surprising that miners would cooperate and play by the rules:

> Although bitcoin was designed to rely on a decentralized, trustless network of anonymous agents, its early success rested instead on cooperation among a small group of altruistic founders.

But the Bitcoin whiteppaer says very clearly that it's designed to give miners and incentive to cooperate:

> The incentive may help encourage nodes to stay honest. If a greedy attacker is able to assemble more CPU power than all the honest nodes, he would have to choose between using it to defraud people by stealing back his payments, or using it to generate new coins. He ought to find it more profitable to play by the rules, such rules that favour him with more new coins than everyone else combined, than to undermine the system and the validity of his own wealth.

Public journaling it seems inevitably devolves into glorifying the highlights and seeking attention and acceptance, rather than honesty. Which expectedly the media platforms exploit for engagement metrics.
Unfortunately we don't have access to lower level communication on macOS. Kexts (Kernel Extensions) have been deprecated and now need System Integrity Protection (SIP) to be disabled. Even with that, you wouldn't have a way to send raw I2C signals to the monitor like ddcctl does on Linux.

I do discuss these challenges regularly on HN, it's very possible you have read one of my comments.

Lunar provides a Raspberry Pi solution for cases where DDC is really needed and doesn't work from the Mac: https://lunar.fyi/#displaylink-control

The guide leans toward DisplayLink but in fact it works on any monitor, and it was the only solution for DDC when the first M1 Macs appeared: https://alinpanaitiu.com/blog/journey-to-ddc-on-m1-macs/#the...

I have heard people say the unexamined life is one not as gratifying
That's scary that Airplay causes such a drag on network performance. Does it also do that if it's just in the status bar (at the top of the screen) instead of the keyboard touch bar?
I used to use this as well (with site-specific part in the middle, not as a suffix) but then switched to Bitwarden and random passwords as some suffixes were not unique and with 300+ services it started being annoying to type over and over again. Also a more sophisticated attacker could intercept two passwords and see the similarity, then bruteforce just the difference.
There are 3 major footguns with automatic semicolon insertion iirc (one involves having the return statement on its own line. As long as you know them all it's fine I guess, but not my taste.
Hmm, docker is very buggy for my team and myself on m1. Coming from a x220 where it was flawless, on m1 it quite often just ‘dies’. When you paste the message you get when you run any docker command after that into Google, you see that many people have this issue and the fix is; restart docker. This didn’t happen under Linux. I am not sure if it did happen on x86 Mac as I never used docker there.
Immigrated from Brazil to Germany.

Almost 8 years after, I don't have any intentions of going back. Sure, I miss family, friends and local food.

But living under the conditions I had to live back then was too harsh. I was born from a very poor family and it was terrible there, even as a software developer. I had to really work my ass off freelancing, making websites from when I was 10 and pay for my university. Things have improved for developers lately there, with many American companies offering very good compensation and now they can afford even to own a propriety. But the bigger problems are still there.

Money isn't everything. It sucks if you live well but there's poverty everywhere, anytime you could be killed. This is Brazil. I lost my uncle when I was 6 because he got shot in the head while working selling sandwiches... leaving behind his 8 year daughter... and it made me realize that nothing is more important than having money, which is to have some peace of mind, and this is what I get here, in Germany.

People here are rude, there are problems as well like xenophobia, being disrespected or not taken seriously by police as a foreigner, even being thought of selling illegal drugs(yet... I work in IT and I'm basically a nerd), eventually some nazi assholes giving me trouble, and of course, the people that don't have any sensibility for people who suffered hardships in their lives because they've got it easy... stuff that I truly dislike that even back home didn't used to happen. BUT it isn't anywhere as bad as it was back home.

Maybe if you are immigrating from a first world country with a nice family with money and so on it might look different. I see a lot of Americans that come here for an adventure and stay only a year or two and move back. Some of them even had their parents busting $200k in a Harvard degree for them. When you have that sort of life, I think it might be hard to appreciate how nice living here is, but if you came out of nowhere and see how there's a social system here and you can start living instead of feeling always in a "survival" state, it feels good.

I guess we all share this rare opportunity which is to be alive and live. But we are all given a very different hand of cards. Moving to Germany changed quite a few cards for me for the better.

No regrets. I can only recommend it.
The results are amusing but not particularly accurate; "cat" resulted in a recognisable but distorted cat, "dog" produced a barely recognisable nightmarish blob of fur and eyes, and "pig" output something with nothing more than the general texture of a pig.
They may feel snappy if you go 2G into swap. Not if you go 12G+. My normal stuff uses 20 G ram, and that's without any VMs on. No way that can run smooth on 8G physical ram.
I built myself a system that sends me an email every day, and all I have to do is respond to that email; the answers get stored in an SQLite database, which is backed up on Dropbox.

So, opposite to you, my system lets me revisit and read my previous thoughts, something I do enjoy. It's also a great tracking system that tells me when this or that event happened.

But, like you, it's not dependent on any specific tool. I can lose my phone and all my devices, as long as I can receive and send email, it'll work.
Some things can be cross-compiled, sure.

But a lot of projects have tests they want to run on their target platforms.

If you build your Linux release on Windows, you might accidentally release a .zip where your binaries aren't executable. If you set up cross-compiling to Mac 5 years ago and tested it then, perhaps in the meantime code signing has become mandatory. If you build and test on Linux and release to Windows, perhaps you'll get tripped up by filenames becoming case-insensitive.

Some projects are keen on testing on all target platforms to flush out issues like that.
One area where Go has quickly established a niche is in tooling, for example Terraform. Here the benefits of being able to run a single (non-containerised) binary vs having to fret about what version of Java your punters happen to have installed in compelling no?
>It's going from N5 to N5P, chosen by Apple over N4.

Any info as to why?
Why was this published? Bosch does not even make cars
Ah... thank you for all your work digging into that! Sorry it's such a pain :(

That Pi solution is really interesting. Does that mean monitors will generally accept DDC commands from inputs other than the active one? Like having the Pi connected to a second HDMI port lets you control brightness without switching inputs? That would be neat.

I wonder if there's some programmable dial type thing...
Both Kdenlive and Olive a2.0 have been about as stable for me as Premiere Pro on Windows, which is to say usable, but keep your autosave time short.
Kdenlive is far ahead in terms of functionality, but I'm 100% sold on Olive now that I've worked with the code a bit. It is so well-structured that I was able to jump in and make somw modifications and a custom node that I needed for a project in barely an hour, starting from zero - having never worked on a C++ project outside of embedded stuff.

Most people will quickly assemble in groups/tribes/families. People can realize danger, and even independents will know when it's time. Chaos will be transitory and most people will be unaffected; however, supply lines will be limited to neighboring friendly tribes/villages. As a result, shipping things from the other side of the world will be expensive and slow. Products will make their way slowly, so you'll always get the end product but inefficiently.
> Docker and Android development were particularly brutal to get going reliably IIRC.

Android? Android Studio has problems? That would be vital to me if i went Mx.
I've mostly stopped reading websites on mobile because of this. On desktop I have various plugins and scripts in place to get rid of most of the annoyances.

It's not only subscription popups these days, there are also the goddamn GDPR popups (which don't even apply to me), Intercom popups, and ads of sorts that pop up separately from the newsletter signup.

Very often within a few seconds these mobile websites have 80% of the content covered by sometimes 2 or 3 separate annoyances, at which point I generally think it's not worth dealing with them anymore and just quit.
I mostly agree, but one place people can escape to is Moscow, where Edward Snowden has relocated to. Of course, Russia has become less attractive recently.
You can also just use regular webcomponents and make re-usable components regardless of frontend or backend usage.
ΜΙΤ also did a similar research years ago for Monster waves which is exactly the same as rogue waves (i guess there is no spesific name about it) they are really important for maritime industry, they're in theory for now, but some will claim that can actually have a sensor like that, well they dont, but its funny to waste time with sales people.

You mean military grade drones that cost tens of thousands of dollars?
Everything is too long to read. This is mine personal problem.

All java code be lie `public static void SomeReallyLongNameDescribingEverthing42 implements SomeOtherEvenLongerName`

For me it's 10 times harder to follow than Go's `if err` blocks (which I actually do appreciate most of the time).
No apologies needed, it was indeed poorly worded and I noticed it myself before you had commented. By then it was past the edit window.

> Ideally, we should teach people that it's wrong to kill animals just because they're bothersome.

Amen.

> Where I live btw, dogs -strays and not, alike- tend to die not stoned but poisoned.

We had one such case and I have no idea whether that was intentional. I would like to believe that it was not. It was my first experience of seeing one dog grieve another for weeks and then die months after because it had stopped eating.
How many times do we have to keep trying to make cars happen, we have perfectly good horse-drawn carriages!

The constitution DAO was pretty successful application of the tech. Within a week, they went from idea to public fundraiser, raised more than they would have been allowed to on Kickstarter or GoFundMe, had immediate access to the funds, and paid 0% commission compared to what most corporate platforms would charge. When the bid failed, donors were able to seamlessly exchange their PEOPLE tokens for their initial deposit. The whole process was faster than Kickstarter’s 14 day settlement.

The fees could be mitigated by using a rollup.

They lost the auction because their maximum fixed bid was public knowledge, but another application of this tech could just activate the funds toward the goal such as putting it toward carbon removal.

Disclosure: I was one of the donors and I knew the risks and also the fees involved, and I was satisfied with the whole process. A low fee tech like this on a rollup would be great.
I started doing this, but for blogging
Meh, I'm OK with it. And to be frank a "kwon artist" is several levels nicer than what thousands of Korean "crypto investors" would be calling him right now.
A model is not required to get everything right. I found those deductions absolutely amazing honestly.
Fraud is criminal activity, I'm not talking about that. Corporate shield does not protect you from criminal law. Do Kwon probably should do jail time. The comment I was referring to had to do with a civil lawsuit.
Good to hear we are not the only ones!

We think self-hosted might be the right direction. We are going to be putting a ton of effort and energy into our self-hosted offering over the next 6-12 months. We want to support all the major databases. At present we only have MongoDB (not idea for large projects) and BigQuery, although Clickhouse is not too far off now.
Yeah, I'm not personally surprised by there not a massive jump in an 18 month span.

It looks as though Apple are gearing up for armv9 and smaller process node for the next round of chips which would be more of the "large jump" people are expecting. I think as long as Apple alternate the big jumps with the small jumps then they're not doing anything different from anyone else.

They needed to deliver M2 to show they're not resting on their laurels. If M3 is a similar kind of improvement then that's when to be worried.
I am struggling to get my arms round this

I mean, it's not actually about the browser, but let's ignore that.

Companies that sell phones choose to install a particular OS. Apple's choice is obvious, for others (99.9%) it's a version of Android. The vast majority of those choose to use Google's ecosystem with its Playstore.

Much as I can understand the sentiment, I can't see how it equates to a stranglehold. If others want to create a new OS and get manufacturers to install it they can.

Whether the UK has any clout compared to the EU is a different question.
There is some irony with this submission URL being redirected through Google, with who knows what amount of tracking. Probably because they ended up copy-pasting something that looks like a URL at first, but when you click on it, changes to be a redirect through Google (looking at you, Google search results).
The thing I really hate about not owning content is the access is so damn unreliable. One day I have an album in my playlist, the next day it's gone because licensing or whatever. Then I randomly have to log back in. Maybe on a device i dedicated for playing music that's a pain in the ass to interact with.

I could play Mp3s on a 20 year old computer. That 20 year old computer won't work with apple music lol.

Hell, I can play DVDs that I bought 6 months ago on my 17 year old PowerBook G4!
It only works in places where the institutions are functional, which is something that you are taking from granted.

But forget kickstarter. We are talking about identity. Tell me how you could implement, e.g, a twitter-like application where no single entity can kick you out. Assume that the data does not need to live in a blockchain, and each user's data is portable between different servers. The only thing a (willing) server needs to have is a way to authenticate your identity. How would you do that without blockchain?
If it exists, it's better for our enemies and public that it is not known. Being underestimated is an advantage in battle.
my work has banned exceptions in c++ and i kinda love it. i know exactly which functions can fail now and you're forced to handle all errors.
The commercial products run on Linux just fine, in particular Xilinx tools do for sure.
I wonder how we expect "new humanity" to deal with the fact that we burned all the easy coal, oil, gas deposits.

Also, the most important invention would be the printing press including typesets, ink and paper, as there is no way you can do everything in one generation.
The electromagnetic equations are linear, whereas the fluid dynamic ones are non-linear. This difference is crucial for this phenomenon.
The problem I have with blockchain enthusiasts, after talking with them about their philosophy, is that they seem to consider trust a bug, and believe that ideal world is achievable with straitjackets of technical solutions that eliminate trust.

Trust is a feature, not a bug. If trust is violated by rogue agents, it is because they exist[0], not because trust itself is a folly.

However, blockchain-adjacent initiatives seem to suggest a future where we implicitly label[1] every human as motivated to hurt another by making all aspects of their activities subject to verification checks.

In addition to strong dystopian vibes, won’t this act of labeling everyone as potential threat actually be instrumental in bringing this motivation to everyone, making it a self-fulfilling prophecy? Aren’t we sort of codifying malicious intent, instead of trying to remove it from the equation? Whom would this serve?

There is place for verification in the interim, such as maintaining security of your home, but if we are looking ahead (as blockchain enthusiasts do) we should strive for a future where humans are not motivated to hurt other humans. Not treating it as some sort of default is a good start.

[0] Their core motivation to benefit at others’ expense is to me indicative of mental health issues, possibly caused by insecurity and upbringing trauma.

Embarrassed! Though in mitigation I use the Guardian app so I wanted a clean link. Failed.
Why not? Not a lawyer but isn't it fairly normal in criminal law, for example, with a terrorist or criminal organization (and a fair amount of international cooperation there, too)? To be clear not saying DAOs etc. are in any way falling in that area (criminals aside), but why would the method of organization provide a shield unless created by law (such as an LLC)?
Or too old to know about Russian dolphins:

Its likely there will be mass violence in the beginning and pretty much everyone will be affected imo. Criminal types will flourish taking what they will. Most will die from starvation pretty soon though. Those who have some sort of food source will become huge targets very quickly. Your only real hope is to have some tucked away huge bit of land with water and food already growing. Even then that wont be enough.
Same in Norway. Here, banks are required to deny mortgages to people who they do not see as being able to handle much higher rates than on the date the mortgage was taken. Is that not the case in Sweden?

(I personally think they should test for even higher rates – I'm terrified to see how many people are in absolute shock that rates are rising rapidly, after being told that exactly that will happen for years)
"can" is doing all the work there. If it isn't please show me a SSI system that uses zksnarks in production.
Idk, I don't see much difference between Java and Go (and similar languages). But Go feel lighter and more concise.

My main problem with Java code is that it's too hard to read due to endless variables\classes etc names and such. It's almost like reading some Oracle's documentation rather than reading code.
Can you edit it?

If not, @dang, can you please edit it?
Time and again, techno-utopians tend to forget that, for most of humanity's existence, knowledge was passed on orally and was not "scientific", but it allowed us to survive and flourish. It is not solar concentrators what will allow us to survive, but knowledge of the earth, soil and awareness of the place that we occupy on the web of life. And that knowledge cannot always be registered, but has to be learned from practice. You don't need a guide to know how to grow potatoes, you need to learn it and teach it to the next generations.
Unfortunately, that's not as fancy as talking about solar energy or mathematics, or fantasizing about the great library at the end of the universe.
At this point, the EU regulatory bodies are probably inclined to agree with their former brethren. There seem to be very few national or supranational governments left that are going to bat for these companies.
Enough people need to adopt them, for it to truly be effective. At which point they just become the new Google.
Groth-Sahai Proofs Are Not That Scary
at least "accused a random guy of being a pedophile" is true, though "because he saved a dozen kids" part is not true

nevertheless, "accused a random guy of being a pedophile" is damming
I can really recommend the book “If you want to write” by B. Ueland.

It’s a lovely ode to writing and ofcourse goes into the subject of the title.
It would still be easy to have more tokens than people in this setup, you could choose which of your tokens to present, or pass some tokens around. So it is hard to guarantee there is a 1:1 correspondance. Which could be a good thing, but also doesn't work for some of the cases that want 1:1, like giving people a universal basic income where you don't want them to create fake people.
Honestly I'm surprised it's as low as 90%. What's the rest? The Samsung browser?

From my experience using Firefox on Android, very few websites care about compatibility with it.
This essay introduces Self-Sovereign Identity very nicely! Even deeper deep dive into this topic :

Sybil attacks are not solved with the "Soul" bound reputation approach. This was mathematically proven some years ago by Harvard University phd student Sven[0]. See his impossibility results on "weakly beneficial Sybil attacks" and "single report responsiveness property". The blockchain crowd has not yet discovered this, fake identities are an unsolved problem.

Startups be aware. European Commission now has an official "26 000 000.00 EUR" "estimated value" open offer for SSI wallet solutions [1]. Prior for basic service called "EBSI" was 35 million, won by IBM Hyperledger. That now works, Dev API [2]. Upcoming Europe directive states that by 2024 all citizens can apply for a digital identity, if they want one.

(self-promotion..) State-of-the-art: Delft University trustless SSI solution with running code and field-tested zero-knowledge proofs. Scientific publication "A Truly Self-Sovereign Identity System", published at IEEE LCN conference[3]. Disclaimer: we got the government contract for doing privacy-first digital identity. We integrated our own Tor-fork based on UDP for solid privacy with verifiable credential stack, see Github deep link [4].
