A skeptic (i.e. someone who cares to verify) not being able to trust media because it might be fake is only a minor problem as long as you have at least one trusted channel.

The president, say, can just release the statement on that channel and it can be verified there (including cryptographically, say by signing the file or even using HTTPS).

If you lose that channel, then you're pretty much screwed because you'll never know which one is the real president. But there are physical access controls on some channels, say the Emergency Alert System, which can be used to bootstrap a trust chain.

What will be much more possible is that someone who will not check the veracity of the message will take it at face value without bothering to validate it. This is your news-via-Facebook crowd.

At that point, it's less a technical issue than simply people don't want to know the truth. No amount of fact-checking and secure tamper-proofing of information chains of custody will help that.

I like the idea of a power tool for collecting, organizing, and surfacing things I would like to keep up on. I may actually pay for this.
Outlook will only send GET requests, which are idempotent unless you're ignoring the spec. A message saying "this code has already been used" after sending a GET request is a bug.

I don't see the problem here, all services need to do is add a page that's says "welcome back, $Username, click here to log in!" that sends a POST request to do any serious confirmation without breaking any specifications.

Microsoft claims the visiting not is BingBot but it's probably just SmartScreen system checking for malicious links/downloads/etc. like many cloud integrated security products do these days.

I can set my browser to pretend I'm BingBot, you can't derive anything meaningful from the user agent. Unless you find your secret URLs in Bing's search results, your secret links aren't actually being monitored by a search engine.

Thank you. I discovered I have an adrenal nodule via another medical investigation. No one has ever suggested it might be linked to my high blood pressure.
Hi, small fix:

$ hdparm -tT /dev/sdN - partition reading & writing benchmark

It will just benchmark reading, not writing, perfectly safe to run it on a disk with data.
Who said it was a crash? We haven't even started yet.

I'm expecting it to go even lower, below $10K to $8K.

Good rules.

>2. Pay a cloud vendor to supply a working, managed Kubernetes cluster.

If one is at that level already, I don't think there's anything better than AWS ECS out there. It just works. Just works. Yes sure, it does not offer stateless workloads for example among other things but it works for 90% of the cases.

> 3. Don't get clever with Kubernetes networking. In fact, touch it as little as possible and hope really hard it continues to work.

Pretty much... Each CNI generates the SDN its own way slightly differing then the others. It is like you can write the program to print a chessboard on terminal in ten different ways.

Unfortunately, these implementation details aren't written or documented anywhere and they of course would keep changing from release to release anyway. Your only way out if you have production workloads that you can't afford going down without missing revenue? Just pay for the support for respective CNI as only they would know what the voodoo magic is under the hood.

Sure you can see the source code and all of them are open source but that's not your main business or the main day job and of course, the solutions aren't 100 line trivial implementations either.
Lee Kuan Yew, the founding father of Singapore, considered AC to be key to its success:

From interview with him:

Question: Anything else besides multicultural tolerance that enabled Singapore's success?

Answer: Air conditioning. Air conditioning was a most important invention for us, perhaps one of the signal inventions of history. It changed the nature of civilization by making development possible in the tropics.

Without air conditioning you can work only in the cool early-morning hours or at dusk. The first thing I did upon becoming prime minister was to install air conditioners in buildings where the civil service worked. This was key to public efficiency.

Man, I use Firefox for Christ sake. You don't have to be anti open web to know letting anti-competitive behaviour run rampant is even worse than having the open web that we have today.

Your perspective is as insane to me as mine is to you. Don't let a corporation make decisions about your computing freedom for you.

Anti-competitive behaviour from both sides is why we're in this situation (Apple/Safari/Chrome) to begin with.

Some people don't trust the namespacing in Kubernetes, or have contractual obligations to keep environments separate. I've rarely seen clusters with more than 10 nodes, but I have seen single customers run 5 tiny different clusters, for different environment.

Solutions to TikTok's American Credibility Problem
Is a labor union not a cartel for labor?
Not to be harsh, but as you are asking for feedback I will be critical for you in the hope it is helpful and honest.

You come off a too strong. its off putting. This is general advice for selling a project, not just for crypto.

Your link clicks through to a post describing web4.0 - i get that you want to be seen as different but again its off putting and egotistical. I know what web3.0 is, now i need to know about something else? It sounds like "we've done it, we are better than the rest, we deserve to talk to people and they should care" and before we even know who you are or what youve done im already tired and feel like im being talked down to. Then i go to your home page and its talking about web5? I feel like im being trolled.

I guess thats probably out of frustration from your perspective of feeling like you have a product but want more momentum, but think of it as UI/UX problem and rethink how you are promoting your work. The language makes me feel sceptical and it isn't attracting me to come work with you and talk to you.

This is a problem many organisations (and individuals) have, and this is why companies hire people for PR and outreach and comms and excellent designers.

Make us care, not by telling us we should care, but by demonstrating how good your solution is. Not by listing all your repositories (and i simply dont believe one organisation is working on NFTs/Community-currencies/Voting/their own chain?... its too much. Tell me the one thing you do better than everyone else, focus your energy).

Dont add a link to a forum post with two responses. Link me to a well designed product that is working (think about the uniswap website which was a massive step up for crypto design and lots of crypto places should learn from it. simple and effective).
On a team of 12 on your homepage you have 5 managers and 1 designer? for all these projects, really?

edit: and then think of Vitalik getting a thousand requests a day, hes probably thinking "why do they need to talk to me so bad". and is that really where your energy and focus needs to go?
...mostly yes, at least initially. I use uMatrix and NoScript and its a matter of configuring/'training' them over such that most browsing over a few days/weeks becomes quite fantastic.

That said, one has to get used to making those configs every time a new site is browsed (or a previous site changes significantly what it does), but really, for some of us, the experience after the fact is well worth the investment, as browsing and reading become sane again.
A Japanese woman explained to me that they blast the AC really hard in the summer and she keeps a blanket in her office because it gets so cold. Japanese summers are hot and humid but men still wear suits to the office. I heard about some campaigns to change this behavior while I was studying Japanese, it does seem kind of wasteful when you think about having to toss on a jacket to stay warm during the hottest part of the summer.
> As of Friday, Voyager said it had approximately $137 million in U.S. dollars and owned crypto assets.

> Last week, Alameda (FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s quantitative trading firm) committed $500 million in financing to Voyager Digital, a crypto brokerage. Voyager has already pulled $75 million from that line of credit.

Am I misunderstanding something, or: what kind of mismanagement could possibly lead to loans being given out to a single entity representing, like, over 70% of the entire value of your organization (pre-default)? Its excellent that FTX/Alameda stepped in to keep them solvent and not allow this to spiral further, but at the same time, its incomprehensible to me that Voyager allowed this to happen; so incomprehensible that it feels like I'm misunderstanding something.
Good. You need to see where journalists are taking cover.
Well, for my American context, it's the best way to grow up

Once you have to pay your own rent, you quickly understand how the world works. When it comes to dating, I've never had a good experience with someone who was past 25 and wasn't independent.

I got my first apartment when I was 19, and for the most part, I've been on my own ever since.

The typical person I've met who's 30 or whatever and lives with their parents, has a massive entitlement problem. They're simply owed things. Their mom's being mean because their mom wants them to get a job.

I think raising kids is meaningful work. Having raised 3 kids I can tell you I rarely had 2 hours of free time for myself, let alone having that kind of time every day! It's just not going to happen.

Now that I've become an empty nester I have more time to myself than I probably ever had in my entire life! And I have great kids who've turned into awesome people that I can visit and enjoy doing things with.

I would argue you reap what you sow. Put the time and work in now and enjoy the fruits later in life. Don't worry about silly things such as "free time."
It's now impossible in Japan. Outside is now sometimes at 38C and humidity is always high.

That doesn't mean it wasn't violent. It's also only true if you squint at it pretty hard.

> Coup? Really?

> By sensationalizing it you're kind of fanning the flames.

I'm not sensationalizing. Donald Trump and his associates planned and implemented a coordinated strategy to discard the results of a legally-run election in order to maintain power. That's a coup. The fact that they barely failed does not excuse it.
People have been eating soft shell and snapping turtles in the SE US since... always? I grew up in the Everglades in South Florida and caught and ate many soft shell turtles. Fried up, tastes like... chicken? It's pretty good. The bullfrogs we gigged then were quite good too, the farmed ones I've tried in recent decades, not so much.

At no point was there any reference to particular inherent qualities of turtle meat, that I recall.
Yeah I'm a bit jaded too. Would I get into this business today? Probably not.

Mostly because of the potential employers, who they hire and why, and how success is 'measured' these days. I've been contract only for 17 years and I'll never go back to employment. I guess I'm lucky to have the option, but if I didn't I'd find another non-employment way to earn a living.

As you say the problem is that individual contributor quality isn't valued as it should be -- it's not prioritized above say compliance with 'all the current things.'

Engineering culture is mostly absent everywhere nowadays and in it's place a culture of entitlement and groupthink -- the hallmarks of failing institutions.
It doesn't matter if WebKit is open source or not (in the context of the topic) because only Apple can make modifications to the WebView on iOS. Adding or removing functionality, fixing bugs is entirely under Apple's control.

On iOS third party browsers:
● Can't pick their own browser engine
● Can't pick which version of Webkit they wish to us
● Can't turn browser engine features on or off using flags
● Can't add entirely new browser engine features
● Can't edit browser engine features
● Can't entirely remove browser engine features
● Don't even get all the features of Webkit that iOS provides Safari
● Get a more restricted version of Webkit than the one iOS provides Safari Safari and the WebView that browsers use do not get the same level of access)
● Use a version of Webkit provided that is tied to iOS system updates as opposed to packaged with the third party browser

On Android third party browsers:
● Can use their own browser engine
● Can pick which version of Blink they wish to use (if they are using Blink at all)
● Can turn browser engine features on/off using flags
● Can add entirely new features to Blink
● Can edit existing features in Blink
● Can completely remove features from Blink
● Don’t have to use Blink at all
If by extending you mean that you want to have a type that includes ALL the functionality of another type, without needing to fill in each method, that's already supported.

In your new struct definition, include the desired base type as a member - without giving it a name. That embeds the unnamed member directly, and your new type automatically gets all the interfaces and their underlying implementations. As a python-person I always found this a somewhat odd mechanism, but from a functionality perspective it satisfies what I have wanted to do.

Guess that's what people mean by composability.
FWIW, that's a 5.7% grade. If anyone thinks that's not a steep mile, they should try running up it and see if they change their mind.
> Displaced Gamers is great.

Seconded, their videos are informative and lean.

If anyone has a passing interest in NES architecture or just how NES games work I'd recommend checking out the creators other videos.
By the same logic, it is there in the name that the Criminal Division of the FBI represents criminals.
Always sad to see, but these people actively perpetuated falsehoods about things like regulation. Go look at a celsius thread on reddit when NY said it must cease operations in NY.
> This is equivalent of a person going to bank to pay off their debt and bank refusing to take money so said person must declare bankrupcy.

Yeah, I'm no fan of the Russian government or what it's doing, but this is always going to be "Russia defaults* on Foreign Debt" (with an asterisk). There are too many external factors that were deliberately trying to force this outcome through unusual means for it to be an unqualified default.
It's odd then that states and countries most invested in green energy have brownouts when it's hottest.

Legitimate question. What things have gone right in Crypto? I'm excluding individuals getting rich as that can happen due to gambling, etc.
Not ancient. The apostles are still alive.
> If the approach is so inherently flawed that this result is an inevitability, maybe it deserves to die and be replaced by something else.

These are all systems and projects created and run by human minds. Nothing is "inevitable" and nothing "deserves" to die. These are just outcomes of choices by users, vendors, and regulators. I think many people here are advocating for choices that would keep some kind of competition to Chrome alive. You seem to be advocating for the opposite. That's not necessarily wrong or bad, but Chrome becoming a total monopoly is not "inevitable" either.
The title made me expect this would talk about places that did have enough toilets. This has been my experience visiting Beijing. I'm not expert, but my understanding is that a conscious government effort was made to reverse a status quo of there being absolutely no toilets, including in many homes, that resulted in a sanitation issue. It seemed like now there was a whole government office administering not-terrible bathrooms across the city. Of course cheap labour may make the attendant more feasible.

Of course as a westerner I rarely left tourist areas, so my experience likely isn't representative.
Declining cost of solar basically means that we need to focus on it, not nuclear.

It's the difference between $36/MWh and $110/MWh.
On the other hand, this denies me from using an actual Mozilla Firefox web browser on iOS.

Imposing an artificial limit on iOS isn't how the web will move forward.

> Whatever you think of their decisions, Apple is the only thing stopping a 90%+ Chrome web.

I don't see Apple making any effort to diversify the browser ecosystem by making their browser available on other operating systems, so their inaction on other fronts isn't going to reverse the trend either.
There are plenty of ad blockers for Safari, not sure what nerfed experience you're referring to.
Perhaps, silence would be a good choice on this issue?

To my view, coding is as much art as science, and it is limitlessly fascinating to me how different people find different ways of expressing ideas and solutions.

Also, the code review process is fraught with opportunities for insult, misunderstanding and unfortunate power dynamics. It is inherently difficult regardless of the actual content being reviewed.

On the other hand, if there is a significant issue here "I am having trouble following your thinking here. Perhaps dividing this up into smaller functions would help?" Might be a good review comment?

The style wars are very tempting to engage in, but they virtually never drive greater productivity, real quality improvements, or positive team dynamics.

If there are real reasons that this wants to be broken out into a separate function (reusability for instance), then make that clear in your suggestion.
A fool and their money are soon parted. The real problem is that swindlers have made a huge amount of money and can use that money to corrupt politicians so it affects the rest of us. It’s not just the extra tax of having to care for the newly impoverished.

My former local community went all in on a bitcoin scam, they made commissions on new entrants so I never heard the end of it. I only talked about it when asked but my warnings not only fell on deaf ears I was effectively ostracized as people were worried that I would talk new entrants out of it. “Don’t talk to that guy, he’s a no-coiner who doesn’t want you to be rich, he’s ngmi”. It was worse than Amway. Even after the crash many of them still avoided me, I guess now out of embarrassment, or worry that I would shove it in their faces like they did to me. I would never. It destroyed the community and many local businesses.

Edit: just found out which one it was, it was USI Tech. It failed 4 years ago so it’s not even part of the latest crop. Just sad that it keeps happening.
I’m fairly certain they are. My links ended up indexed in Bing search results. The only place they were ever rendered was in private emails to users. Bing should not be indexing that.
>Software engineering projects aren't run like a civil engineering project where you have precise blueprints done before you set construction timelines.

Ironically, the civil engineering projects are one of the best examples of missed budgets and schedules. Almost every civil project at large scale becomes rife with change orders because coordinating different domains is complex, even if those domains have "precise" blueprints. Those blueprints always change, which is why the industry has "design" documents and "as-built" documents.

So what do you think it is? Why do they have an inability to coordinate large complex pieces of a project? Optimism bias? Can we really call someone a high-performer when they display those shortcomings? Or do we just normalize them so they aren't considered a problem?
What do you tell people when they ask how the startup is going?
I'm currently working on a startup with no revenue and very little traction. I'm running out of money and will likely have to stop soon and go back to work.

I'm scrambling trying to figure out how to save the company in it's last days but I mostly just have no idea what I'm doing and will probably just have to get a job and try again later.

Most of my days are filled with stress and dread.

In spite of that I still love working on it and if I can find any way to continue that's what I plan to do.

My question is, for people who have been in this situation, what do you tell friends and family when they ask "how the startup is going?"

Sometimes this question feels passive agressive but more often people are just genuinely curious. It's really a pretty reasonable question.

But I don't have reasonable answers. It's both great and terrible in ways that are hard to get across in a short conversation. I don't have the time to fully explain it. Do you go with a broad "it has it's ups and downs" or something like that? Or try to explain some specific part? I find this tends to bore people.
For a second I thought this was an article about George Hotz and the comma body
