I don't quite understand how we're 10 years into crypto and people still aren't sure the value that a trillion dollar industry generates, I wonder why there's so much confusion around this?

It seems like there's a small niche of people who like finance and tech who get it, but if you're not in that group you will (for example) use hCaptcha without even realising it's on Ethereum and will never see the value even when it's right in front of you.

Maybe people like using it for cross border payments or getting money out of extremely unstable currencies, or anything to playing a game of godsunchained.com or any of immutable.com's properties (including those damn NFT's), maybe you can get a better interest rate lending a stablecoin on app.aave.com instead of in a trad finance savings account, watch some theta.tv, or just like the whole crypto ecosystem in general? the communities, the telegram group chats, the chart watching, the idea of WAGMI, the idea of directly having a say in a project and talking to the CEO via telegram instead of via an online form where you put in your preferences and then a share holder meeting happens months later etcetc

There are a lot of people who see it as a get rich quick scheme in the same way WallStreetBets users use the stock market to try and get rich quick, but ultimately the continued improvements in Ethereum and Bitcoin which push for a faster, cheaper, better digital currency systems are moving it forward and bring something of value to the table, because in reality if it brought nothing no one would be talking about Crypto, it'd just be worthless Disney Dollars like I was told Bitcoin was back when I first looked into it 10 years ago.
Most graphics cards implement a hardware mouse cursor where the video card reads the current pointer location from memory and overlays the cursor on the screen. So I guess if the driver for the mouse and the video driver are both still running (the kernel hasn’t stopped completely) that will still work even if Winlogin is screwed to the point where it can’t show the CTRL-ALT-DEL screen.

Happy to be corrected by someone who knows more about the windows kernel. :)
This is the great thing about wider exploration of these technologies, the calibration data (modulo the individual per chip variability) can be crowdsourced across the combinations of samples and detectors by the entire user base.
That's exactly what I expected a water battery to be.

I don't think it's clickbait to call something storing energy mechanically a battery.

I think the scare quotes are even there to stop you thinking it's a chemical battery that's somehow water based.
Not sure I buy the argument.

By that logic, Apple should only allow phone calls from callers they consider trusted, because any call originating from a non-trusted phone number may be a scam phone call, and someone may fall for it.

Do scam phone call exists? Yes. Do people fall for it? Yes. Does apple block all untrusted phone calls, with no opt-out, as a result of this? (AFAIK) No.

(I could also make the same or similar arguments for web pages, music, podcasts, books, movies, or even apps on their other OS and so on... but phone calls seemed the simplest one to present succinctly.)
1) For work if I want to appear in a location.

2) Security if in public eifi environments.

3) Occasionally to obfuscate information if I want to download a movie or look at information, nothing interesting/nefarious but maybe you want to look at health stuff and not feel some insurance company is going to target you for ads or assume you have the condition type thing.

4) Using phone for international travel. If you use a server in your home county, turn on wifi calling and use the phone as normal for calls/text. This is how it should be.

> I'm sure Google can send a cease-and-desist to all sorts of other stores instead of just Apple.

Google may dislike those applications and refuse to host them on Google Play, but they aren't doing anything illegal, so they cannot do anything about programs like https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.schabi.newpipe/ on other stores.

I don't think it is breaking the sandbox, it could be implemented using NEAppProxyProvider, however this particular API is not available for App Store applications.

there's actually a lot of evidence that cruciate surgery improves return to function, but you're right- a lot of vets unfortunately recommend surgery for the wrong reasons (unwittingly or not).

Surgery only really makes a difference in moderate to severe tears or those with meniscal injury. There's 4+ different ways to fix a cruciate. Half of them are useless (and evidence shows no difference c.f. conservative treatment) and if a surgeon recommend them I would see it as a red flag.

Interestingly a lot of pet owners could not go to surgery because of the recent COVID lockdowns, and it was found that a lot of those animals healed well with just some rest anyway.

It’s bit of both. The newer companies (startups mostly) are quite like US/EU companies—if not better in some cases. Excellent pay, great benefits etc.

The older, more established “MNCs” (think Adobe, AMD, Intel, Goldman Sachs) are slightly more rigid but not too bad.

The worst offenders are the services companies—Accenture, Infosys, TCS, the likes. They’re the sweatshops: terrible working hours, terrible culture (or lack thereof), shit pay.

But yes, as another commenter says, there are exceptions to everything.
“They certainly have the money to keep pace with Chrome”

This point has been made before. But Chrome is a moving target. I actually am skeptical that Apple can spend more money on WebKit than Google can on Blink.

The way Chrome rose to prominence was by implement brand-new web standards faster than anyone else. If the question is only, “what engine supports the most websites,” I suspect Chrome will increase their development pace in order to try to extend their lead.

> Funny that actors in their 20s, especially early 20s isn't the obvious solution when bodily change has slowed but age can still easily pass for HS aged.

They are. Sure, there are some that are wildly out of that range, but since someone else raised BtVS let's look at how old the main cast was in 1997, when they were playing sophomores in high school:

- Sarah Michelle Gellar was 20

- Alyson Hannigan was 23

- Charisma Carpenter was 27

- Nicholas Brendan was 27
I think your terminology is a bit mixed up: OpenVPN and WireGuard are technologies that can be used for any of those three purposes. For example, Mullvad/PIA/etc are hosted vpns that you can use OpenVPN or WireGuard to connect to.

It's funny.

Speed Racer was absolutely bizarre to me as a kid. It still is, really. The art style, the voices. It feels like some kind of postmodern absurdist art. I like it in a way but, man, wow.

Star Blazers always just felt normal to me. The designs and dialog were more grounded in reality. I realize "reality" is a relative term here, since we're talking about a space opera starring a WWII battleship (lol) but it definitely aspired to some sort of a "hard sci fi" aesthetic. Like a Robert Heinlein novel or something.

If you look at isolated cels or something they're pretty close, and of course they share aesthetics like "big anime eyes". But man, they hit me completely differently.

The English dub voice acting for the first two seasons of Star Blazers was actually pretty admirable in places. They hired non-union, off-Broadway actors as opposed to hiring the typical kids' cartoon actors such as the Speed Racer dub gang. Both as a money-saving move and because they wanted people that would try and take the roles seriously.

The first few eps are tough but once the actors settle into their roles, there are some really credible moments. The overall result is highly uneven but I think it was revolutionary in its own way.

Hilariously, for the third season of Star Blazers, the original cast had scattered to the wind so they hired the Speed Racer cast lol. The results are a farce.
They're also not staying in the sun for long or going to tanning salons. If you stay under the sun, skin will suffer and age more then if you stay out of it.

Some of these actors may have tanned, like Stallone, but many others were careful to not do that.
Ironically this is the most inflammatory response I've seen thus far - not like being emotional makes something more likely to be incorrect anyways...

Yes, I believe women have been prosecuted for self-inducing abortions using an abortifacient even prior to the current court ruling. For example:

https://newrepublic.com/article/111368/the-rise-diy-abortion...

https://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-abortion-murder-2015061...

https://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/22/magazine/a-mother-in-jail...

There are more examples. The point is that those who received an abortion have been prosecuted even prior to Roe being overturned. It stands to reason that they will be prosecuted now.

Aha, I see. The new article is the old one, augmented.
If most of the Foo table has Bar=42, an index on Bar works, or you may have to rewrite the query as (Bar < 42 or Bar > 42) on some DBs. If Bar=42 is just a few rows then yeah it's best to do a table scan.

For the second query, an index on (y, x) is very good most of the time. You would use the natural sort order of the index, and prune x <= 42 rows from the result set by only using the index. If almost all of the table is x <= 42 it's better to index on x, have it sort everything and throw away beyond the limit. Although if you are specifying a limit just for pagination, then it's decent to get e.g. the Nth element from the y sort order, and then only query where (y > ? and y <= ? and x > 42), possibly with a different limit and some other clauses if y is not unique.

I feel like these types of queries are basically non-existent in OLTP though. If you are going to block expensive queries, knowing the queries ahead of time makes it a lot easier.
yes, thinking about that. Actually, an API bug report should be:

1/ secured, the credentials should not be exposed.

2/ enough information, e.g. the response must be snapshot, general parameters should be transparent.

3/ easy to re-produce and confirm resolved.

All marketing online now is done through anonymous suggestions because if the way labeled promotional content became overbearing, so much subtle marketing is even embedded in popular YouTube, Other Social, and TV content now that it's insane, really not sure how to counter the deceptive trend because it only gets worse every time people try to call it out.

there's not many specialised glucose monitor for animals. it's not feasible for manufacturers to release products just for one species or test for every breed of dogs.

we use continuous blood glucose monitors (made for humans) which can take wireless readings through a skin implant. they do well in animals (once you shave the fur). there are papers that confirm human glucometer readings correlate with an animal's blood glucose- so many clinics use human glucometers.
Hyperinflation of the old currency would erase all debt denominated in it as we shift to a global deflationary economic system.

Once in the deflationary environment, the cost of borrowing would be higher, and there would be less reason to work, consume and invest. Hence, there would be less incentive to take on debt.

It is an urban legend that all consoles are sold at a loss.

Some manufacturers, in creating an appealing multi-year technology platform, might temporarily sell at a loss. The PS 5 for example was reported to sell at a loss for the first three months.

Secondly, a reporting that a console is sold 'at a loss' initially may be talking console development, initial tooling, and partner contracts for custom parts in account. They may not be speaking of raw manufacturing costs for individual unit parts and labor.
> When ISA detects the car is over the limit, it may induce visual and audible warnings, as well as haptic feedback through the steering wheel or throttle pedal, or it may begin accelerating the vehicle if no action is taken.

There is absolutely no reason any road car should be able to (consistently) drive faster than ~150km/h
You can generate and encode permutations in a manner that is simple, fast, and compact using shorthand universal cycles.

A shorthand universal cycle a cyclic string containing every possible permutation of a given size N, where each sliding window of N-1 contains all of the information you need to generate a permutation of size N (since the final missing piece is implicit [whichever symbol is not present in the N-1 shorthand sliding window is the last symbol in the N-length permutation].

These require only N! space to encode all of the permutations of size N, and they can be generated recursively from a short-hand universal cycle the size below.

Ruskey and Williams have a series of fantastic papers on these, including generating permutations with pattern masks (preventing some of the permutations that match a pattern from being included in the resulting cycle).
As far as I know, NIST endorsed a weak random number generator, and they withdrew it after the flaws were found.

TL;DR the industry is risk averse, and like the music scene, A&R people and lawyers and finance now prefer machine backed algo models, which say "stick to known star vehicles, and franchises, and add one starlet for an upside risk of a breakout you can capitalise next swing round"

VPN stands for video pirating network, most of the time.

Either "legit" piracy so you can watch content you pay for from another country, or less legitimate piracy.
Amazon investing in the LOTR world (with an established fan base) I would think it's less risky than Netflix's strategy of burning hundreds of millions on famous producers without any criteria than just to produce something good- more often than not being misses rather than hits.
Ah, I got some ideal here. So, you mean:

1/ We should have an API tracing system, hosted in a server for example, which capture all requests, including the params, headers, response. with some secure rule, e.g. hide Secret-Token header.

2/ Each request will have a header, its value is the request-id for example

3/ Whenever a bug come, we just need use request-id from 2/ and search the information in 1/

Right ?

I think Accelerating is technically correct. The vector can be positive or negative
Negative acceleration is still acceleration.
But have you considered how much fun breaking the speed limit is?
So all cars will be susceptible to "phantom braking" due to a bug or worse? I really dislike this, and living in the third world I can already imagine fake road signs being used to decelerate and rob cars.
Acceleration is just a change in speed as per the laws of motion [1]

You seem to have attempted to respond to my criticism of a HN comment by speaking for the author of a website piece who didn't write the HN comment I was talking about

.

> Science exists to find flaws in a hypothesis, not find evidence to support it.

Not really, no. Most science proceeds without a hypothesis. Also, believing this makes me wonder why you're speaking up.

Standing my ground: people who don't have a formal degree in science shouldn't sit on the web announcing what science is for, because they genuinely do not know, themselves.

There is an actual "science exists to," and people who are scientists know what it is.

I understand that you're going to tell me I'm wrong if I don't teach you the scientist secret handshake, and that anything you say is truthful unless another internet person invests significant effort in taking you apart, or that I must provide reference regarding your claims. I'm okay with that.

I believe that my point stands.

The post makes a wildly long list of testable claims, and doesn't test them. A five minute look through the literature shows that almost every claim they made has been tested and come back "no, of course not."

If you find yourself attempting to speak for science as if it's a person, please consider not doing that, unless a college or university has degreed you in a science field.

Anyone who can discuss the type 1a/1b/2b split without the help of the internet can also tell you why science does not, in fact, exist to find the flaws in a hypothesis. None of those are hypotheses. Ample similar situations are hanging from the tree in literally every branch of science. That one's just common enough that I expect a typical internet user to know what I mean.

Thanks for understanding.

Dear journal: today, I saw someone attempt to correct me on that science is little interested in evidence. Also, I had some lovely tacos in the mission.
How well does this work in areas where almost every car is speeding? Especially since there would be a mix of older cars without the tech sharing the road.

If you have a sum type `< a : A | b : B | c : C >.a`, then A, B, and C need to be unfolded. If A itself is of type `< j : J | k : K | l : L >`, and J is also a sum type, etc., then unfolding everything can result in exponential memory usage and exhaust the amount of available memory. Of course there are ridiculously high-memory systems available, but then it's no longer economical.
I predict that the politicians will, after much grumbling by the public, have the speed limits raised to reflect the speeds people actually want to drive. And then we'll have to endure a bunch of breathless hand wringing and concern feigning about how "it will be a bloodbath" from the usual suspects.
The original comment said that prosecuting a mother for the death of a fetus was not a thing. I shared an article with multiple examples of that showing he was misinformed. That was my whole point. I don’t know what point you think I was making that was refuted, and I really don’t want to derail the conversation and get into the weeds of whether this particular case of stillbirth was a miscarriage or an abortion or manslaughter or murder.
