Nope, saw it myself. It was literally a corrupted file. There was nothing the journo could have done to have caused the issue. I downloaded it straight from the iPhone.

I find the document somewhat shockingly long. Almost like it is designed to confuse and create roadblocks. Can someone summarize what it means?
Add constantly being belligerent to US and other nations ships on international waters, claiming they can build artifical islands and lay claim to all of the waters of South China Sea and control who travels there.
I'd say it's the oceans that have done that? The document didn't make it so that the US doesn't have continental military competitors

It uses TONNES of clean water, and turns it toxic as well.
It might be an answer to climate change but its no "green energy"
Hooking writes at a kernel level shouldn’t have much impact, provided it’s actually hooking there
As an aside, I was able to change the audible level of the turn signals on my 2020 Toyota with their Techstream software (from the usual shady sources) and a Tactrix cable I originally bought for flashing my Subaru ECU. Maybe you can do the same for your vehicles with their dedicated software.
I never understood why people are so terrified of losing their hair, like they have a choice or a say in the matter. Your body is going to do what it was programmed by your dna to do, no matter how uncomfortable with being bald. Just own it and put your focus into something besides your own appearance. Yes I’m likely going to lose my hair too in the near future. Who cares?

IIRC, that's a matter of personal tolerance because the degree of error correction can be arbitrarily adjusted.
The normal Japanese word for a programming destructor is still just English-borrowed "desutorakuta," so the legacy of the death tractor lives on.

Here's a very similar online conversation which you were a part of on the D forums/newsgroup, about a D book being published in Japan. [1] That's page 2 where it's first mentioned, and your joyous reaction is on page 3.

Seems like at the time since Google Translate didn't know the term in its programming context it tried its best and gave back "death tractor" when trying to take "desutorakuta" back to English. Today though it gets it right (see "table of contents" tab in this link) [2].

That thread so matches what you're describing here, I wonder if it's the actual source?

I wonder how crypto rolls into all of this. A crypto collapse could have wider impact to the market.
Now I’m interested to see how this will improve my magit experience!
Almost every healthy company has debts. It's more of a question whether they have a generous revolving credit line and whether they can service their existing debts or be allowed to create new ones.

All of this debt information is publicly available and the market has "priced it in".
There were tons of studies on mask efficacy showing that it had a very minor benefit at best.

We knew in the first few months who this disease targeted..i.e. the elderly and unhealthy.

Yet we still went super Saiyan on crushing the country and world for years.
So, just assuming without any evidence that the proposal is a "pseudo solution"?
It's not an either/or choice. I don't want USA having that data either but that's not what this conversation is about. The CCP actively is genociding the Uyghurs and disappearing political dissenters. We are not the same. You do not want the CCP to get blackmail information on you especially if you work at a company they could potentially steal IP from.
Page 2 and forwards offers the SEC's rationale: they don't believe that Grayscale can meet the requirements of the Exchange Act. Presumably the other ETF was able to do so.

yeah that sort of overreaching statement is pretty easy to discount and with it the rest of the article has a great deal diminished perceived value/credibility.
Hutter proved that finding the optimal behavior of a rational agent is equivalent to compressing its observations. Essentially he proved Occam's Razor, the simplest answer is usually the correct answer.

But "rational agent" isn't a standard object mathematicians work with. This person no doubt defined an object they called a "rational agent" and then proved things about it. That's still just plausible reasoning relative to the many informal and incompatible concepts of "rational agent" out-there, not to mention models of environment.
They did, and kept it out of the atmosphere for hundreds of millions of years.
Layoffs.fyi says that in june you got more companies that are firing, but less people fired in total. How do you interpret that datapoint?
Yeah, this is how I always introduce git to newbies. “You know how you zip up a copy of your project when you have a version you want to keep? Git is that, except with a bunch of (sometimes slightly wonky) tools to keep track of everything.”

I also try to start them off with gitk/`git gui`, which make it a lot easier to understand what’s going on (“ok, so here you see a diff with the changes you made. Now you stage the file, and it moves down here. You can put it back by unstaging it, but for the moment let’s commit it. Now in the graph you can see your new commit, with a line pointing at the parent, and your branch pointer moved along with it, but the origin/branch pointer stayed behind, so to get that to move we need to push the new commit to the remote...”)
Poor Grayscale. It's going to be compelled to continue holding $43B in crypto and charging investors 2% a year.
Cool use of emscripten. Is this handling inflation at all? Fixed-number items like standard deduction will be impacted by that.

I think it gives a general idea of the tax situation, but possibly decreasing accuracy at high incomes, where a tax strategy can be implemented specific to the special deductions/credits each year, which are difficult to include in this form.

Odd, I've really yet to run into a key library that I needed and couldn't find. Not all libraries are listed in Nimble too. Granted I've not done much web server stuff in Nim. Sometimes a library needed a bit of polish, which is usually trivial given how concise they are. I've actually had better luck with it than say with Elixir on anything not web related. Occasionally I've needed to wrap or convert some C code on non-embedded projects.
First this was implemented in Safari years before 2020.
Could just be Proshares has their act together whereas Grayscale does not.
Note Proshares also a long-bitcoin ETF.
Both the long & short Proshares are futures based, and do not hold bitcoin.

Grayscale it looks like was trying to launch a product directly linked to spot bitcoin, holding them in some sort of trust? Maybe SEC had concerns about custody..

Also, Proshares has historically been a big player in the ETF space, whereas Grayscale has.. as far as I can tell, a single ETF with ~$7M in assets.
Why? Most sane people aren’t leveraged into crypto at all.

I suspect this is the crypto bubble burst vs the dotcom burst 2.0. But if you were frisky enough to invest in crypto you deserve what is coming, just like a pets.com investor in 2000.
The US Government is $30.5 trillion in debt. It currently pays $437 billion in interest on that debt per year. The US government takes in $4.37 trillion in tax revenue per year.

https://www.usdebtclock.org/

So we pay 10% of our revenue each year in interest. Not too bad.

But do some simple arithmetic… $437 billion is 1.43% of $30.5 trillion.

As interest rates rise, that percentage rate will go up:

2.86% = $874 billion interest

5.72% = $1.78 trillion interest

We are almost assuredly going to hit these rates across Treasury yield curve over the next year or two. Series I Treasury bonds are already paying 9.6%!!

What’s going to happen when we’re paying almost half of revenue on interest on our debt?
My question is how much real estate is wrapped up cryptobubble schemes. I assume not much.
Well, suppose we learnt with 100% certainty that a spesific bank account belongs to dangerous criminals - surely we should not be allowing money transfers to that account - either you are beinflg scammed, or you are financing crime on purpose.

I sympathise with your position, but you cant have people awndong money to know drug dealera and terrorists and go "oh well, its their money" either

the additional angle to consoder is that we have duty of care to vupnerable individuals - elderly pwople and children.. like if a peraon with a degree in finance is buying crypto, no questions. but if someone in their 80s is investing in crypto becauae their neighbour tols them to, thats suspicious

If we don't get nearly free electrical energy this isn't going to happen. Humans might as well accept it. We could save the planet with nuclear and renewables, but it won't happen, people are too stubborn.
There are several long BTC ETFs, they just only hold positions via the futures exchange. That's what the short ETF does as well, just with negative positions.

Grayscale was applying to be a "physical" ETF, which would hold and buy and sell actual coins.
This is sort of the argument in Science. In the public discourse you have these conversations about Science being Right or Wrong. Within Science, you have more of this notion of All Models Are Wrong, But Some Are Useful.

We don't know if half of the things we know about physics are right or illusions. What we do know is that the models we have are consistent with the observations, and more importantly that they survive interaction. If I poke it, does the 'illusion' continue, or does it pop like a bubble?

Maybe magnetism doesn't work the way we think it does, but the way we think it works lets me cram millions of dancing lights onto a flat surface and organize them into pictures. And we got to millions of dancing lights from tens of thousands because we kept refining that model down and down into scenarios too small to see with the naked eye.
The Open Source Version of OpenAI
Chase here - our mission is to build an open source AI company focused on developing products for enterprises. The repo is at https://github.com/humanishai (please take a moment to star!) and our home page is https://beta.humanish.ai

After a decade of working in several labs and companies, I originally quit my job to start a generative media company at YC. We didn’t manage to solve that problem, but we learned how hungry people are to use the biggest AI models.

However, when we signed up for access we were put on a waitlist, it bothered us how we needed to send our users data to third parties and get approval before launching our product. Waiting weeks or even months for access felt exclusive if we could get access at all to the big models, and it felt wrong from a privacy perspective. We designed Humanish AI to solve these problems.

We made Humanish AI with a set of features that can be extended easily. All of the code is open source. And all of the models will be too from day one. There is a Discord server where we will train models together with the Open Source community. We'll post on Twitter and Instagram. Anyone can help out training, adding features, or making suggestions on Github rather than being excluded. I am personally stoked to read every single one of your suggestions and reply myself!

You can have source code access to every part of the process from data collection and cleaning, to training and infrastructure, to backend and frontend, to challenger/champion deployment systems, and we are building a cloud version as well as monitoring too. That means our plan is to have the best parts of the 3rd party deep learning model providers but are more privacy and developer friendly.

We’re thinking of adding features around many more modalities, so please let us know what you would find useful for an enterprise you know.

We are platform and language agnostic, with a very simple setup. If you want Python, we give you a library. For anything else, there’s a REST API you can signup for to get early access https://beta.humanish.ai The repos have instructions for AWS, Terraform, or Docker.

We’ve launched this repo under MIT license so any developer can use the tool. The goal is to not charge individual developers. We make money by charging a license fee for things like multiple users, user permissions, training or fine tuning custom models, providing a hosted version, support, and any new features or models an enterprise needs.

Give it a spin: github.com/humanishai Leave a star! See something missing? Make a suggestion in Github discussions or make a PR and I'll personally merge it in. Sorry for the DMCA takedown in one repo. A lot of people don't want this to happen open source. For any new paid feature or for investment reach out to sales at contact@humanish.ai

I’m not talking about understanding what a rebase is supposed to achieve, I’m talking about the merge conflicts than can arise while rebasing, understanding why they happen and how to deal with them.

I’m not talking about understanding what the working tree and index are, but how they interact under the various commands, what happens with the working tree and index state for example when you switch a branch, etc.

I’m not talking about a basic understanding of what a remote is, but about how to deal with different remotes, how to have local branches, how to push/pull only some branches vs. all branches, and so on.

Those are the things where people get in trouble and into broken states.

Non spot vs spot etf

Th sec is fine with a futures based etf but for some reason doesn’t want a Spot etf.

Which is strange because Canada has multiple spot etfs.

Some arguments for not allowing a spot wtf is that the futures markets are regulated and smaller currently so a futures based wtf can’t grow as big as a spot one at the moment.

Those aren’t great reasons because a lot of spot markets are now hosted by regulated companies like coin and gemini and the he sec said that futures based etfs can hold some of the Canadian spot etfs f they can’t get enough futures contracts

Greyscale wins here by losing as it means they continue to get 2% a year in assets where as a spot etf would charge under 1%.

The Discount to NAV trade continues on, with a 30% discount waiting to be unlocked.

Funny story about this fund and its NAV. It helped sink the fund 3AC.

In 2019 and 2020 it was a very crowded trade to give them BTC and get units back that were locked up for 6 months. The units at the time traded at a premium to its NAV( ie you gave 1,000,000 in BTC and got back units worth 1,200,000).

Now the NAV has inverted such that the cost per share is less than the btc it holds due to funds like 3AC trying to get their money out. Lots of funds have lost alot of money trading this fund around, and if it was allowed to convert to an ETF none of those losses would have happened, and yet
the SEC wont' allow them to convert for some reason :(
The closest precedent might be something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexmark_International,_Inc._v..... or whatever laws make the aftermarket parts industry legal.
Testosterone fluctuations will cause rapid hair loss. 40 is the age at which this seems to start happening and you start randomly feeling weepy for no reason.

If you go with topical treatments like Midoxinil, have low expectations. There is evidence that they "work," but they're not magic-- at best you'll hide the extent of loss with short-lived new growth (forget having a ponytail). You must maintain daily usage to even get that much. Retail price is ridiculous but Costco sells it cheap.

Latisse (specifically, not some lookalike "serum") will make hair grow on literally anything, but it's a bit expensive to use on your scalp. Typically meant for eyelash lengthening and might require a prescription. But hey, if you're desperate...

There are reasons, but it's also not smart. Organizations that pay for Slack pay for the service, not the shitty client.
You have to put yourself in the mindset of people who think big, are completely amoral and money is no object. A couple examples:

There's encryption in use the NSA can't crack (SSL). So they..record the entire internet because someday they may be able to crack it. Sounds impossible, but they do. I don't know how many racks in how many data centers it takes, but money is no object.

Create an entire war on drugs to..keep a few percent of the black population from voting. Sounds like evil on a scale that's impossible to believe.

I'm sure your a decent person, which is why you discount how evil evil can get.
Easy! You “restructure” it /s
Yes, as far as I can tell the footprint of pyrolysis portion is basically the same (various wild seeming claims notwithstanding) though I haven't dug into this deeply, and specifically haven't looked into it in over a decade.

However on a full cycle basis the difference is biochar is typically made from local material (mostly the leftover waste from the prior year's harvest) which is right there (zero transport) and would otherwise rot and release methane and CO2 on its own, even if plowed into the field.

Charcoal is made from trees, typically cut down and transported to a factory and then transported to the customer.

In general I am not in favor of burning trees, enjoyable as it is on a cold night out in the forest.

This is a weirdly simplistic analysis from a major financial institution.

I always wonder to what degree financial institutions say what they're thinking, versus what they want the public (or other financial institutions) to think. Or even what they want others to think their beliefs are.

Games in Type II chaotic systems get confusing quickly.
Elixir is not bad, but I definitely prefer static typed languages now after getting more into TypeScript. Not having types just feels wrong now.
It's a legal document. A lot of the length here is citations for prior rulings (take a look at Pages 3 and 4, for example). It's not "designed to confuse," but it also isn't intended to be light reading.

The TL;DR is that the SEC does not believe that the Grayscale ETF can meet the requirements stipulated for an "Exchange-Traded Product" under the Exchange Act. In particular, the SEC found that a proposed rule change that would have allowed for the ETF violated the requirements of the Act under Section 6(b)(5).

All of this is covered on Page 2. Subsequent pages cover precedent, various conditions under which other ETFs have been approved ("surveillance-sharing agreements"), and an extended justification for rejecting the proposed rule change.
The customer might be responsible, but their credit cards’ bank is going to tell the hotel to pound sand. They want clear proof of the customers’ willingness to engage in that specific transaction, including the amount, and an agreement stating customer is liable for unspecified damages is not sufficient.

Some hotel guests will not contest it, but I bet if they did, they would easily win the chargeback. How is the hotel even going to prove that smoking occurred in the room and by that guest?

Ability to collect payment is the problem, even if you have a binding contract with a customer.

> The room in most chains is checked between stays and, outside of unusual scenarios, it's customary for the guest to let the front desk know about existing problems as soon as possible to avoid assuming some responsibility.

Ideally, and it might work in small claims court to state the hotel guest is responsible because they did not report the existing damage at check in. But the customer’s credit card bank is not going to care, and their burden of proof is pretty high. And as I wrote earlier, they can always just say “our merchant agreement prohibits charges for damage and non sales related transactions”.
you have presented no evidence to support this claim. There coupd be 100x more fraud with wallmart payments.

just because zero fraud cant be achieved dows not mean we should have no anti fraud measures

This really sucks for Grayscale holders. As of the close today, $GBTC owners have the rights to $18.62 of Bitcoin per share and the market is pricing it at $13.32. And there is no way to redeem the shares for Bitcoin. By converting to an ETF, this would have become possible. But now, the $12.9b of assets Grayscale holds will be locked up in perpetuity while its investors watch the fees get eaten up.
