In case you're wondering, I've recently compared Go desktop GUI options[1], and there is also a new contender with new bindings to IUP[2]. The bottomline of my post is that Giu and Gio are good for small applications, Fyne is only okay for mobile platforms, and otherwise you should use either IUP (lightweight) or Gtk4 or Qt for full desktop apps.

The main obstacle to starting a university? It's expensive, has massive administrative overhead, has a cold start / reputational problem, and they are academics not business people or administrators.

The annual operating budget for the University of Toronto is $3B. Certainly you can start smaller, but the cost of starting a competitive university from scratch would be astronomical. Coursera has raised $450M in capital, just to build an online university (unaccredited I believe). Tyler Cower is not a billionaire, as far as I know (he's a college professor).

But let's say you do that, and you build lecture halls and labs. And you get whatever accreditation is needed to be a "real" degree granting program and do top tier research. Then what? You need to go get students. With your brand new university nobody has heard of. And students want to go to university that looks good on their resume, mostly. So how do you build that reputation?

Finally, what are you really doing differently? When you say you let them do research "unobstructedly", research appears to rely on grants. Student tuition covers ~65% of the University of Toronto's operating budget (this is a very well regarded university with a lot of foreign students they are able to extract exorbitant tuitions from). So you still need to fund the research. You need to pay the professors and their lab assistants and post docs or whatever. Since you can't cover it with tuition (your school is worse than existing schools cause it's new) you have to get grants, so you're back to the same problem as before. Does this university have a new business model for funding research and operations besides tuition and donations / grants?

I'm not trying to be a downer, but there's a reason all these top universities are like, 100 years old. The entrenchment is real.

Ask HN: Why is PayPal not offering Bitcoin in Europe?
Offering Bitcoin seems such an easy model to make money for Paypal.

Why don't they expand this service to Europe?

Is the reason that it is that hard (or even impossible?) to do this legally in Europe?
i absolutely agree with the sentiment, but this issue is much wider than police departments.

the people are supposed to have privacy while power (of all sorts) gives transparency.

in front of our eyes this is being flipped on its head: power is asserting all privacy while demanding that we—the public plebes—give up ours.

much of this community have been fighting against losing this privacy for years.

the piece that hasn’t been getting as much voice is how power is becoming far less transparent and refusing to answer anything. (and yes, flooding a topic with noise making it impossible to find signal on an issue is the opposite of transparency.)

and for you partisan hacks, this is both parties, and yes, this includes your favorite cult figure.

it’s being flipped on its head. the countless recent police incidents is just one of many many many incidents.
Yes, they're very very local around here; with strong differences over a ~10 mile range around Bury, Bolton, Manchester.
Your argument looks like a weird straw-man argument. Are those organisations you mention explicitly supporting groomers and padeophiles ? All the folks involved have been fired and/or convicted when crimes have been discovered and publicised. The same is now expected of Google.
So this looks like an insider trading scam run by the exchange.

But crypto is "trustless"--- right? How is this sort of thing even possible? Surely this is illegal --- right?

Well I most of the time either split the screen into two halves, which is really nice if one needs to work with more than one application, searching some info on the right, pasting/writing it on the left) or for shells often use tmux and vim split views so that I can look at multiple files/source code lines and still have a ready to use terminal at hand.

For example, I most of the time use the following layout at work:

Workspace #1: Split into two stacked sides:
- on the left there's firefox open (sometimes two windows to
group tabs)
- on the right there's my mailer (thunderbird but I dabbled
with neomutt/notmuch too)
- either side holds an occasional shell for some local or remote
maintenance, quick calculation or doing something else

Example screenshot https://tlmp.it/d/scrot/sway-layout-workspace1.png

(note I recently switched workstation and while at it I tried to switch from i3 to sway, so the top bar config is really plain due to me having yet to find some time to port over my old i3bar one to waybar or the like)

Workspace #2: A single big tabbed assembly of terminal windows.
Each connects to a development VM (different projects and or major
releases, using Proxmox VE makes managing those VMs quite easy)
via SSH, in there I'm running tmux with a small screen part for a
shell on the left side and the remaining part for vim with split
panes on the right side

Example screenshot https://tlmp.it/d/scrot/sway-layout-workspace2.png

Further workspaces are then for ssh windows for more complex real tests on some servers.

I use a lot of short-lived windows for terminal, browser, pdf-reader, ... and there the tiling window manager really shines, as I can effortless open those in some tens of milliseconds (MOD+Enter for terminals, MOD+D for my general window launcher), check what I need, maybe copy some text to the primary buffer by simply selecting it and then close it again With CTRL+D (EOF) for terminals or MOD+SHIFT+Q for any window.

I am a long-term cryptocurrency bull. I love the ideals of cryptocurrencies. To be fair, I am also very cynical about the current price of bitcoin.

With that said, given the glut of cryptocurrency articles on HN that have a very similar nature, I wish I could downvote this submission back to 1 point.

Lower than 20k? Alright, that’s not interesting from a technical perspective. It’s also not interesting from an economic perspective because it’s very hard to have an analysis about it that we haven’t heard in recent months. And if there is such an analysis, the chances that it comes from Coindesk is very low.

That is all to say: I find that this submission is flirting with going against the guidelines of this site. I don’t see how this is intellectually stimulating or interesting for anyone on HN. Also, realize that the real cryptocurrency fans (me) either: hear this through friends or check themselves. So this is not news to cryptocurrency fans either. All this is news to is to cryptocurrency neutral people and people that dislike cryptocurrencies

Yea this is a big gap. It is planned but the task is huge. Once we have sufficient sponsorship or financial support in place you can be assured it will come.
I wasn't talking about optimization! I was talking about non-pessimization, which includes not prematurely abstracting/generalizing your code.

I've seen people making poor decisions at the outset, and having code philosophies that actively make new code 100x slower without any clear gain. Over-generalization, 100 classes and subclasses, everything is an overriden virtual method, dogmatic TDD (luckily, nobody followed that.)

The dogma was to make things more complicated and illegible, 'because SOLID'.
I love the ideals of crypto.

These BASIC goto statements are pretty tame. Some basic interpreters did not require the line number in the statement to be constant. You could do things like a switch:

switch n{case 1: case 2: case 3:}

would become e.g.

goto n*100+1000

with lines 1100,1200,1300 handling the cases.

And then there was the hidden advanced troubleshooting console:

input N: GOTO N

Alright, but HN isn't strictly about the technical perspective of things... you will find politics (sometimes!), philosophy, culture and variety of other topics that are welcomed by the community.
Someone said similar in another thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/devops/comments/ve9jge/how_do_you_c...

My answer is yes, the on-call compensation is more about keeping healthy dynamics of on-call than it is about materially impacting your total comp.

I've worked in places where on-call pay was material before, and while it's nice, it comes with disadvantages too. As an example, you try hard to keep shifts balanced because if someone covers you and you don't do a shift that month, you notice it in your paycheck.

That's not always a good thing, if you want to encourage people to switch shifts to prioritise their health and reliable on-call cover.

I don't know how to say this without sounding snide but I am genuinely curious: you need to back every single part of that sentence up with some serious citations.

Specifically can you challenge my perception that you're advocating for option B of the following:
Option A: find someone to trade <thing you have> for <thing you want>, haggle, transact.
Option B: trust some tentacled bio-monstrosity to perform sophisticated transaction chains with a ton of misaligned incentives at each layer.
And I hope it continues this way until crypto evolves beyond the ponzi model. People can lose real money on these alpha-stage experiments.

....I wonder if engagement with dissenters in this case would be harmful or productive. I tend to favor the notion that systems which attempt to maintain unity by casting out those who offer dissenting public voices tend to become monocultures and echo chambers. I don't discount the value of monocultures and echo chambers, they can be extremely valuable, but I don't see how SpaceX benefits by building one.

Harmful.

First, Any dissent around company product choices is acceptable but comes with a risk depending on the level of expression. Smart companies learn to cultivate this kind of dissent and provided it doesn't detract from the mission itself, its probably the right decision.

Second, the company should fire on the spot any dissent that is not directly work related. It detracts from the mission.

The petition in question violated both precepts of allowable dissent.

For #1 let's say for the sake of argument that the dissent was honest, and strictly trained at the company's tactics in marketing (i fundamentally disagree, see #2) . If the marketing tactics are a failure, that is the board's prerogative to change CEO. However, the petition is violating the allowable levels of expression by usurping power from the Board itself. That is a level of expression many levels above the petitioner's role or level in the org, extremely noisy (affects all employees), and public. The petition literally violated all norms around tolerable dissent, and should be fireable on the spot.

For #2, the petition asked silence CEO speech which is not 100% product related. The hint of this is that the petition is loaded with complaints about "public behavior" and "embarrassment" which are clues into the intent is for this to be a political decision to intervene, not a product one. Words like embarrassment when targeting an individuals are meant to discuss individuals, not products. More importantly, when the petition targets speech which includes a number of opinions that are personal, and not product, this becomes political.

Let's take examples of each:

For #1, would people would get fired on the spot if employees circulated a petition saying they wanted the CPO to be "reined in" for refusing to carry Elise chassis in models subsequent to the Roadster ? The answer is yes.

For #2 This used to be very rare in the past, so it was never tested until recently.. I believe the most high-profile firing has been the firing of the Red Bull - US CEO and US Head of HR by the German board. They were engaged in activism not work related, and both got the boot.
I know that, I tried to point that out in my comment as well, apparently I wasn’t clear enough about that. I love all kinds of topics. With that said, how is this interesting from those perspectives?

So the advantage of using crypto is that it is good for those that use crypto? Your argument is circular.

goto makes sense in C for cleanup of local resources. Passing a bunch of pointers to pointers to another function for cleanup makes code far less readable (jumping around in a source file instead of just reading code linearly and freeing local resources in the scope in which they were allocated). Basically, forcing structured programming over using goto is the anti-lambda — requiring a lot of jumping around in the SOURCE file (not necessarily the binary) instead of linearly scanning through the code.

Dijkstra was wrong with his “goto” paper. It’s fine to admit that. He was right about most other things.
It's also worth pointing out that Bitcoin was created after the last major crash in 2008, there's no precedent for its behaviour in the current one.

Ironically it was also made as a hedge against the existing financial systems, but eventually became just an extension of them. Became "the very thing it swore to destroy".

A few different people have done tests to verify whether GPUs used for eth mining took any damage from doing so, and haven't managed to find any evidence that it damages the card more than regular use. Running cards under severe load nonstop for years could potentially shorten their lifespan by a tiny bit due to electromigration or wear out the fans, but that's about it.

Of course, any used GPU could be defective, so you need to be careful buying one no matter what.

> It removes the perpetrators sense of invincibility and empowers victims to speak up.

That wasn't an angle I'd thought of (making the rich and powerful in general seem like they are accusable) and it makes things a lot of people have said in the last make more sense, so I thank you for suggesting it and have an upvote.

That said, the pattern of what the media publishes about celebrities in general, and Musk in particular doesn't fit. I am also skeptical it actually accomplishes this goal or that the benefits outweigh the costs.

> It's clear from the comments you're shilling for Elon. The thing I don't understand is why.

Taking this in the most charitable light of "what is motivating you to make all these somewhat pro-Elon posts over the last day?" I did some introspection.

Unfortunately, the answer is very long and complex and I couldn't figure out any way to condense it without being misleading and giving you the wrong impression (seriously, I tried! Unless you have a similar memeplex every shortening pattern matches to something I don't believe!).

I can say a bit about what the reasons aren't: I gain nothing tangible for this (I hold no stock in any Musk companies and am not employed in anything relevant). I have no person connection to Elon and he may indeed be an arsehole, I don't know. Colonizing mars is a fools dream. TSLA is overvalued by at least 2x.
