> To learn you’ve got to become excited by knowledge, obsessed with it, sometimes dangerously so, sometimes in ways that might border on compulsion, or even addiction.

You're taking the author at their word and criticizing this characterization of learning. But I think the author's claim is hyperbolic chest thumping and shouldn't be taken seriously. I doubt the author's thirst for knowledge genuinely borders on 'compulsion or even addiction'. That's ridiculous self-aggrandizement (which is normalized on TikTok, of course.)
Had to look them up. Among other stuff, they let you borrow cash using crypto as collateral. That sounds like risky business at this time. They seem to apply a 2x safety margin but that might not be enough.
Congress giving the EPA a mandate over emissions of pollutants and the EPA setting emissions targets for coal power plants seems to be a clear and objective function through an intelligible clause.

Addendum :

The CAA doesn't contain a list of pollutants. It contains a definition, which CO2 fits. This already went before the Supreme Court in Massachusetts vs. EPA and set the precedent that CO2 must be considered a pollutant under the CAA. This precedent was already challenged by a few states and was upheld, and the Supreme Court didn't overrule it today either, instead going for another line of argument.
was gonna post them but all of my comments are being flagged regarding this

really sad to see what crypto is doing and coinbase and others all had a part in this.

Wickard v Filburn has got to be one of the worst precedents ever. I sincerely hope the SC reverses it next.

By the same logic, I can never collect my own rain water as it would impact interstate commerce.

Similarly, I could never have a free school play for parents, because I would be taking money away from local theaters, and that would eventually resonate to interstate commerce.

The Constitution's interstate commerce clause has been purposely misinterpreted to mean regulation of commerce within a state if you can abstract nth order effects to another state. In actuality, all it is supposed to to is allow the regulation of commerce across state lines, meaning regulation on the transport of materials from one state to another.
I choose not to answer you because you're either a troll or ignorant. Hopefully it's just the latter, in which case feel free to use google to educate yourself.
That's a better degree than compsci anyway. If you know your shit, but you're attached to "rest of the country," starting your own consultancy is also an option. There's a ton of work to be done out there.

I started one 10 years ago. It's not google pay, but it's still very nice, and at this point in my life, they couldn't pay me enough to put up with all of the bean-counting & back-biting in corporate software development.

> answer to your next question since i'm rate-limited:

College is crucial for W2s--if only to get through the HR filter (why I asked in the first place)--but outside of that, people don't really care as long as you get the job done. Nobody (at least nobody with any sense) is going to ask John Carmack where he went to school and what he majored in. The work speaks for itself.

Place an ad, follow the leads, take care of business, and you'll have more work than you want to deal with. "Somewhere else" businesses don't have FAANG-tier problems. Someone with a decent GPA in physics can probably handle it.
So when, exactly, is "later"? Bitcoin is nearing it's 14th birthday which seems like plenty of time to make it "work".

Over the past few years I've noticed that HN has swung very far to the right. Any politically-adjacent topic tends to feature more than a few upvoted right-wing grievance posts. I still like HN for the articles but it's honestly insufferable to read the comments.

On this particular topic, it's infuriating to see the average HN bozo think of the constitution as a set of unit tests for justices to run through.
> Can you explain the connection between free trade, covid/russian agression, and the economy? It's not obvious to me

Negative externalities can happen such that access to your trading partners is severely reduced or eliminated.

In terms of COVID and China, the biggest trading center and very large (largest?) shipping port in China largely came to a grinding halt as the entire city was locked down for covid. Massive amounts of cargo ships were just stuck outside the port with nothing to do. This gummed up the entire inner workings of the international trade system and international shipping system, and this negatively impacted many economies due to lack of goods and increased cost of good that were available due to limited supply.

In terms of Russian aggression, the main issue has been restricted access to Russian oil. Energy drives economies. If energy prices go up and/or supply goes down, it slows the economy.
It sounds really bad.

I'd definitely comment that you need to move your mic from your clothes or something if I was on a call with you and had to suffer that cable noise.
The people walking to America are doing it because they are coming from extremely violent countries where they are in immediate danger. My family came from Romania, a place where they jailed or beat my family members on a regular basis during communism, then had horrible brain drain and 0 opportunities post communism. People aren't emigrating from countries like Germany the way they are from El Salvador. Being better than a place where your life is in immediate danger or where there is ZERO economic opportunity is not much of an accomplishment. Please use correct comparisons when you are making statements like this.

"The American people are also the most generous in the world, by donations to charity." Why can't we just setup government programs to fill the in the gaps that charities provide?
Nonsense. Inflation has been running at below 2% for decades, and everyone is free to invest their savings in shares, gold, other currencies, or even crypto. Comparing that to slavery is not only fundamentally wrong, but distasteful.
It works in Germany (and Nordic countries). Assembling washing machines is tedious, but not that hard, and it pays well enough to buy a flat or even a house after years on the job. Cutting and welding metal containers all day long pays even better.

But these are industries where you don't job hop every couple of years - you do it for decades and your wage rises accordingly.

It's hard work, but there's always people who can do it and want to do it.
Was it? I recall the kuro5hin analysis of the leaked Windows 2000 source code[0] that said:

>there is nothing really surprising in this leak. Microsoft does not steal open-source code. Their older code is flaky, their modern code excellent. Their programmers are skilled and enthusiastic. Problems are generally due to a trade-off of current quality against vast hardware, software and backward compatibility.

> That is silly hyperbolic overreaction.

Darn, my interpretation is shown to be naïve by someone who actually has the specific relevant experience!

Joking aside, thanks for your comment.
You should assume that developers, especially interns know nothing about any technology until they had a thorough introduction. And you should anticipate any confusion they may have in the process.

Once, I had to introduce most of the employees of a company to git and git hosting. They were trained from scratch to use git reasonably on the first day. Use of code hosts were taught only on the second day. They were taught hands-on on our internal host and on public server. None of them had any confusion over differences among git and different git hosts. While they did make some mistakes afterwards, none of those were based on total misconceptions.
Ask HN: Has your team migrated to Matrix?
If so, what has your experience been like? If not, what's holding you back?

We're in the process of de-Googling and the team enjoyed test-driving Matrix as an alternative to Google Chat over the last few weeks. The only thing that's currently holding us back is our beloved in-house chat bot that uses the Google Chat API.

That's my point-- how? Presumably you're just going to host your FOSS somewhere else that Microsoft can still get it.
I literally quoted the article that this entire page is about, and I'm also obviously referring to Neutrino seeing as how I directly quoted them. Please read the articles before telling people they need to share more.

Regardless, I don't trust Brian on this. This is the same guy who shit all over his own staff for being "whistle blowers", claiming that these things have to stay in house. Coinbase failed to do their due diligence, bought a company that made spyware, and then claimed that they fired some people but never clarified who. He also explicitly said he only fired some of the "hacking team" that was responsible for the issues, not the entire team itself.

At the end of the day there's absolutely no reason to take them at the word here, and plenty of reason not to.
I was making a point about the value creation bit rather than the details of how Newey works.

Spotting when that value goes away is something I'd be very worried about if I were business owner with older employees.

Most of Africa and central Asia cannot afford a terminal. Australian outback is too sparsely populated to matter, economically.

You seem to imagine Starlink will be motivated to behave better than other telecomm companies. I have no clue why you imagine this. I expect the more power they amass, the more they will use. On their own behalf, not yours.
The new platform itself could literally rate limit requests to download source code. For example: 100 repos per day.

Or, the platform could make it part of their terms of use that licenses must be respected even for machine learning. It could be enough of a barrier to dissuade them.

Would something like that stop Microsoft? Maybe, corporations tend to look for low hanging fruit for stuff like this.
Does this work because of the mass difference between electrons and protons?

If you separate an electron from an atom, charge is conserved, mass in conserved. Apply an electric field, then you shoot the ion one way and the electron the other. The heavy ion then acts like propellant. Mass still conserved, charge still conserved. At some point the electron is absorbed into some random ion elsewhere and the ion grabs an electron from elsewhere.

The argument is that the right to abortion follows from the 14th Amendment's guarantee that "liberty" is not deprived without due process. This is linked to other rights that were derived from the same clause, including contraception, cross-racial marriage, and same-sex intimacy and marriage. Some of the text you quoted also seems to hint at (but does not explicitly discuss) the other clauses of the 14th Amendment, the one about "privileges and immunities of citizens" and the one about "equal protection of the laws". Other parts you quoted are simply arguments for why abortion is part of "liberty".

Regarding your previous examples:

- Right to own property: In Kirchberg v. Feenstra, a law giving sole control of marital property to the husband was found unconstitutional under the Equal Protection Clause. So it's related to Roe v. Wade's Due Process argument, but not quite the same.

- Right to vote: This was explicitly granted by the 19th Amendment. Before that, the Supreme Court had ruled in Minor v. Happersett that the 14th Amendment's Privileges and Immunities Clause did not give women the right to vote, though one might imagine that the Roe court (or the Dobbs dissenters) would have disagreed (or would have found that right in a different part of the 14th Amendment).

- Right to divorce: I can't find any major Supreme Court cases trying to establish such a right. All fifty states allow for no-fault divorce, but that's grounded in state law and is only true as of 2010.
You are conflating "unclear" with "broad".
It's possible. I've been in a Fortune 100 company that did this. They explained the timeline too, with a deadline to accept a voluntary leave package, then a later date where those staying could be affected by layoffs.

Being a large company, they were able to plan it in such a way as to encourage those close to retirement to leave, those who wanted to jump to go ahead and leave, and minimize the brain drain. They weren't running on a razor thin runway where ever day was bleading cash.

Because one of the downsides of surprize layoff announcements, is that while many execs think they are just removing the lowest performing tier, what actually happens is the top performers who do have options see the writing on the wall and go ahead and jump elsewhere. Cost-cutting achieved but teams lobotomized and further decline ensues.

Yeah, the difference is that total_cmp can handle NaNs, whereas with partial_cmp you either had to add your own handling, or get panics on NaN if you blindly call partial_cmp.unwrap().

I think in most cases, splitting NaNs across the start and end of the list isn't desired behavior, so I'll probably keep using partial_cmp with my own handling.

> They are proudly proposing that we outsource government functions to them, promoting the proprietary tech they will use to that end.

Thales is one those supposedly private companies that is actually owned by the french state and french state apparatchiks. The biggest shareholder is the french state itself (26%), then other companies which, surprise, are also partially french state owned. It's all Dassault, Airbus, EADS etc.: they're all basically partially french state owned and own shares of each other. It's the military-industrial complex, french style.

I mean: it's basically the government proposing we outsource government functions to the government.

All that while pretending that Thales is a private company.
Brilliant idea! Bookmarked. Will use.

You hire a doctor for a few hours, plumbers/lawyers for hours or weeks depending on the task, everything goes fine

but somehow software engineers have to come on board, sit at a company desk, wear a company shirt drinking company coffee every day

It'd be great if coders were organized as individuals and small groups that just took on tasks for fixed bids, like the fantasy world from the book "Developer Hegemony."

I could really go for six months off right now, but I'd have to fight tooth and nail to get it from my job, and it would severely hinder my career. So instead I'm just stuck chugging along until I've got enough saved up to quit and start my own company (or take some time off, then jump through a bunch of hoops to take on another prolonged period of full time servitude)

(Bringing it back to the topic at hand: That doesn't make it morally right to lie to your employer(s) and do a half-assed job. The overemployed people on Reddit/TeamBlind sound like a bunch of lying dirtbags who just say everything is harder than it is to cover for themselves slacking off, and aim to just get fired after a couple of years.)
The US Code is already 185,000 pages long. If every regulation derived from those laws was included it would easily come to 20x that amount; so about 3.6+ million pages long. If every page of that had to be scrutinised by Congress then the legislative branch would grind to a halt.

Just like the fact that one person alone can't do everything in an organisation, Congress physically can't author, vote and oversee every regulation from every law. There just aren't enough hours in the day.

A software-only solution where private keys have the potential of leaving the device, be it an app or an USB-stick, is not really okay in this day and age.

So a proper fallback wouldn't be an USB-stick with some certificates laying around, you can instead just build the ID functionality using SIM-card applets. The keys are securely stored in hardware and you can use them on both smart and feature phones.

I'm not too familiar with Steam Networking, but at a glance here are some differences:

- Steam Networking seems mostly for peer-to-peer messaging, so it's closer to a STUN server (used by WebRTC for sending UDP datagrams). It's excellent for sending messages over high-quality links, but if you want to run server side logic, it doesn't seem like Steam Networking will help much.

- On the flip side Hathora is a server-authoritative framework, which can run arbitrary game code on our infrastructure. This is closer to a cloud provider. The difference between us and just using AWS or DO is that we're providing the "Steam Networking"-like edge network out of the box and tailoring our use case to the needs of game devs.

- Lastly, we can actually spin up compute infra at the edge if enough of your users are originating from a location far from the rest of your servers. Let's say your game starts to go popular in Asia today, our routing layer is smart enough to launch a server in Singapore instead of connecting users to far away game servers.

You're missing the point. You don't need to rollback past transactions that make unwanted changes to the contract state. If you have the ability to update a contract, you can add whatever functionality you need to undo a given state transition. You invoke the new function with a new transaction. The old transactions don't suddenly not happen. Your new transaction simply reverses the state changes, making it as if they hadn't affected the state at all.

It's likely that you aren't considering this possibility because, of course, the average token contract does not do this. It would be a significant trust violation if a contract controller circumnavigated the need for signature checking or allowance setting in order to perform arbitrary token transfers. That does *not* mean the possibility for it to be done does not exist.

At the end of the day, token balances are just key-values in the contract storage, and how those values are changed is enforced at the contract code level. That code can say whatever its controller wants it to say, and if they deploy with the ability to update, they can alter the code as necessary in the future. Token contracts are extremely simply, easy to audit, and so are seldom deployed to be updateable.

To summarize, "irrevocable outcome" is not a fundamental trait of a smart contract application. It is a choice at the code level, with tradeoffs, which can be adapted to suit the application.
