I wonder if people who express this sentiment will still be doing so when the pendulum swings so far the other way. Will you also be grateful for a massive register that exposes everyone who ever espoused views in favour of LGBT, multiculturalism, etc in a society that condemns and even prohibits such views?

Perhaps there's some Middle Eastern theocracy where this scenario exists already. Are you glad that Saudi Arabian trans activists will forever have a target on their backs?

MIT looked at this:

> they consider things like the possibility of using a central facility to produce high-performance concrete parts for the plant, as we have shifted to doing for projects like bridge construction. But this concrete is often more expensive than materials poured on site, meaning the higher efficiency of the off-site production would have to more than offset that difference. The material's performance in the environment of a nuclear plant hasn't been tested, so it's not clear whether it's even a solution.

I recently got an electric motorcycle, and it’s a similarly visceral experience. I can hear the tires digging into the dirt and have a much better feel for traction and speed because of it. The effortless (and extreme) torque, with just a small whir, is a riot as well.

People often complain about electric (particularly motorcycles) not being “loud enough”. However, that doesn’t mean there isn’t noise, or that there’s not anything to be in tune with.
Recent developments are often interesting, and that means the information comes from research articles.

You don't want to read research articles; they are long, difficult, and usually misleading. Books and surveys are easier. You can evaluate the quality of a book by checking the citations: "is this book citing recent articles?" For example, I read a chapter of "An Introduction to the Psychology of Hearing" and found it to be useful. I haven't seen a sufficient diversity of books to give an accurate recommendation, however. There may be better books. They'll generally look scientific and dry. For example, "This Is Your Brain on Music", a pop-sci book, will not be useful.

Surveys are where an active researcher talks about what everyone else is doing in the field, and what the important developments are perceived to be.

Experimentation: keep a global goal in mind, such as: "I want to classify all possible timbres and put them on a manifold", or "I want to understand the full mechanics of how a human turns tones into perception". Then you can try synthesizing sounds in pursuit of this goal. Right away, you will find all kinds of strange nonlinearities, and that simple models work poorly. For example, if you hold down sine tones at 400 Hz and 600 Hz, then play an 800 Hz tone, you'll note that sometimes the 800 Hz tone has an attack and sometimes doesn't; this will lead to learning about transients, place vs periodicity, FFR, ITD, and phase sensitivity of the ear. You'll also notice that there is a "click" at the beginning of each note, which will then lead you to discover gammatones, derivatives, and envelopes. This method works because whether your predictions succeed or fail, you are either learning something cool (a mistake in a model) or building something awesome (a great theory).

I learned the other day there are people who’s job is to troll antique shops and other related places looking for old furniture to turn into tone wood for the luthiers.
The neighbor has a catalog of audio recordings of conversations had on the porch 24/7.

Does this school have traffic 24/7 and do you broadcast everything from your front steps via a megaphone (and keep recordings)?

There are many comments here about video/audio recordings from public onto private property however there are various degrees of recording.

If there was a public park across the street from your house and someone setup surveillance-level equipment pointed at your front door, I'm not sure there is a rational judge who would consider this "oh well, they're on public land, nothing we can do here".
This entire article could have talked about only oxalic acid and it would be a better article. It’s basically what all plants have to make themselves largely inedible and it the most common toxin in plants. You can eat all of the above but oxalic acid is just not good for you even small quantities. We’ve managed to get oxalic acid out of everything we’ve domesticated.
And Marvel went bankrupt in the 1990s, which to your point, is all about IP management. Disney I would argue has absolutely done VC-enviable returns on its Marvel acquisition.

It spent $4 billion on the company in 2009. They’ve easily made $100b off of the films, TV shows, comics, merchandise, theme park rides, etc.

I wholly agree with your point re: content that it has the culture of 10 flops for every hit. But that studio model, which has always existed in Hollywood, is the same model and a VC fund. Instead of going public, you get sequels or branch into other IP.

Are the returns the same? Generally no. But a good acquisition, like Marvel and Star Wars for Disney and Harry Potter (and to a lesser but historically significant degree, DC Comics) for Warner Bros, can pay dividends the exact same way as investing in a future tech titan.

My parents took a more hands on approach of destroying my desktop that I paid for and built at 16, broke my bedroom door and subsequently splintered the frame so it couldn't be put back on, constantly disabling my phone service, taking my phone. I don't believe I am capable of making friends, my parents always chose my friends for me and we never had anything in common. The moment I moved out to university I built another machine and did nothing but play games resulting in failing multiple classes. While it was my fault, I did not learn moderation through constant repression. The only thing I got out of this experience is cPTSD, Prazosin, social isolation, panic attacks at footsteps, no identity since I never had the opportunity to understand myself or my emotions. I am however good at picking locks, manipulation, never showing emotion, weaponizing an arsenal of personalities, staying calm and diffusing stressful situations.

My relationship with my parents is fine, I am good at telling them exactly what they want to hear to avoid conflict. I have tried to be open to them numerous times, it only made things worse.

I've grown to enjoy being alone, no longer feel lonely most days. Sometimes I do try to make some semblance of a relationship through games or other activities outside of the computer, but my social skills are lacking not for lack of trying or improving. There are many things I try to change and improve about myself, many sleepless nights reading wikipedia and studies trying to figure out what exactly is wrong with me and what I can do to fix it. I've hit a dead end with BPD, I try not to let it discourage me. I have overcome self harming mostly but the urges are still there. I am very tired and am falling into misanthropy, though I try my best to be the change I would like to see.

I do not blame my parents, my decisions have been my own and I try to be informed. They are human and have made mistakes. It is unfortunate that those mistakes have caused extensive damage to my mental. The things I want most in life are simply unobtainable due to my broken perception of relationships and emotional dysregulation. It is unfair to burden another human with my existence, for what I need they could never hope to provide, though many have tried and walked away hurt, all my fault.

I doubt OP could possibly do worse than this, but the ramifications of such actions should not be taken without heavy consideration. I want to do my best for the next generation and hopefully die soon so no more could be asked of me.

I'm more describing debian repos. A non-mandatory trusted source for JS libraries. Perhaps the browser creators would like to fund it.

> walled-garden walls aren't for keeping you in, they're for keeping danger out.

Great, so lets have an optional trusted source, that's available as standard in browsers, but which can be opted out of with a few button presses and a warning. Just as a concession to "I don't want any old web page to be able to execute any old crap without oversight".
They really believe that it's on the vendor to make decisions like that, and that any decision they make is reasonable because the vendors are the experts.

These are the same folks who accidently leaked all of their confidential discipline records because of a "database flaw" that was automatically scraped.
By that logic, if customers would see how large interchange fees can be, they would choose different payment methods than the most expensive credit cards.

The opposite is the case: Merchants almost always prefer not losing the purchase over a few bips saved on interchange and cardholders continue using their high-fee cards because issuers pay them kickbacks from that interchange in the form of rewards.

The exact same thing could happen with a dominant Lightning wallet provider (supporting channels only to their own nodes in exchange for a better user experience, incentives etc.) and merchants accepting Lightning.

Monopolization almost seems impossible to prevent at a technical level in networks due to the network effect (quadratic utility) and customers being relatively slow to change providers and easy to sway with one-time incentives. Credit cards have just had a few decades of a headstart over Lightning in that regard.

People tend to cite convenience as the number 1 reason to use the cloud, costing more money in renting fees but less money on dev&ops staff man-hours. Is it really worth adding the complexity of multiarch on the staff to get some of that cloud money back?
Actually, I stand corrected. It used to be that Google would rank apps high on a Google search 5 years ago. It no longer does.

This was the typical user acquisition strategy - get people into the app, then have a site with deeplinking for sharing stuff to the public, like what Instagram and TikTok does. This is no longer valid today.
Should be ware of exposed, vulnerable open source automation CI & CD server like Jenkins or RunDeck.

One vulnerable open source CI & CD server leads to major cybersecurity flaws where attackers grasp hundreds of servers in their hands. Here is the article related to Scanning statistics of exposed open source automation server like Jenkins, RunDeck by OSINT threat intel.

It's hard to belive that there were so many exposed open source server(RunDeck, Jenkins) without any authentication process. It's serious security problem that could access just by open source intelligence. It is time to check the server authentication process once again.
Lol @that link, $350 for a power cord and it's only 14AWG w/ no UL/CE rating? I'm apparently in the wrong business.
I get the rebuttal and agree with your sentiment. The government acts as if it's above the law and outside of trust, why bother trying to engage with them?

Well I've seen the completely-hidden privacy pattern tried. People tried to cut out the government and at the end of the day, they will lie, cheat and steal because they know their rule is backed up with guns and in legal grey areas, the average tech bro is remarkably vulnerable to the system they live inside. Just look at what happened to Ladar Levison for just being an unknowing facilitator of Snowden, his stuff got nuked.

If you want something to be private, there has to be a mechanism to roll back government control and the only way to do that peacefully, is legally inside the system. The government keeps a whole lot of military R&D projects, warcrimes, space projects, ect, secret from us and only to be declassified X decades later. Why couldn't they be forced to keep transactions private for X decades?

This could be a whole new gov department that has a zero trust policy of it's employees like the intelligence agencies have and aimed at keeping pandora's box closed, rather than revealing everything.

Training people to keep the lid shut and keeping the unknown, unknown is very different to the CIA/NSA method of harvesting everything it can in the world. Then pretending the same employees that can harvest everything on the planet, won't leak the NSA's database too for their own profit or moral reasons.

I don't know, the easy answer is just to roll custom stuff and go private individually and blend in with the herd. For real privacy, there's big big problems that avoiding the gov won't help.

>>Having it as debt instead of in the bank sounds even better as inflation eats your debt away.

This is a crazy hack, in countries like India where a home/rent-income is a defacto investment, being in debt is cleverest way you can can have your investments subsidised by the economy(general public).

One of the biggest things you can learn as an adult is to be comfortable with manageable levels of debt.
With no sources, and only a second-hand anecdote, I’ve heard that fasting from anywhere between 3-7 days can have some crazy effects on sleep (apparently you have tons of energy at odd times, ketones, etc etc). Anyway, might be worth a shot in the dark if nothing else seems to work for you during those spats, maybe try a bit of a fast and see if it provides a helpful shock to the sleep system?
Founder = worked on biz for months or years without salary. (If founders did have salaries then that’s a different situation.) If you get to join an existing startup with a salary then you’re basically post-founder stage, as the company already raised capital. Of course, that doesn’t mean you couldn’t get the title but your equity is likely going to be lower regardless.

Founding engineer = first engineer but it’s not clear yet what the long term role should be (eg CTO vs VP Eng). Sometimes it means the person is very junior and it’s a wait and see type of situation. Sometimes it means it’s not clear to the involved sheet things will head in terms of your work.

At least that’s how I’ve been using them. If you joined my startup as a first engineer, then you can pick your title, but I would nudge you in the direction that makes sense. It often comes down to many CTO folks being architects and not active code writers. In an early startup that’s not always ideal of course, why it’s often better to start with a founding engineer title.

If you think you’re heading in the direction of being the future CTO, I think you should angle for 5%. My guess is they’re not seeing you as that (eg if you’re very junior), but your equity is def very strong for a non-CTO role IMHO.

P.S.: the company valuation and your market comp determine your %. For example, if your market value is considered $200k and the company can afford to pay only a $100k salary then you’d get $100k worth of equity.
> As long you have some channels open and I have some channels open, the network will route my payment to you.

Just like the internet. And just like on the internet, extortion by incumbents along that route can happen, and likely will once there is an encumbent Lightning wallet provider that is too large to ignore for merchants. (All assuming Lightning or something like it is successful in the first place, of course.)

> As sender, I am responsible for any potential routing fees. You as the payee are not.

In a typical online payment scenario, the customer is the sender. Of course large wallets could strike deals with merchants to let them cover fees for their users to make this less apparent...

> If we were to transact with each other often, it could be worth opening a dedicated channel to enhance privacy and avoid routing fees.

Sure – just like you could open a tab at your favorite bar, or you could get a store credit card at your favorite retailer.
What do you like better about the Bolt?
OP used the word "interrupt" so I was thinking about the INT 21h API into MS-DOS. I never did any coding under CP/M. What assembler coding I did under MS-DOS that touched the PSP was mostly concerned w/ pulling the command line out. I can't say that I ever noticed the stuff in there that's clearly for CP/M compatibility. I do remember exiting COM programs using "RET", which transferred control to CS:0000 where an INT 20h was always present. I'm reading that was for CP/M compatibility, too. Neat.
If it were this easy, why wouldn’t paramount have done this for the last century?
Not much! I've played around with the exploits / POC code posted on github.

Interesting suggestion. I thought I had tried everything, but never tried anything like that. Thx will keep in mind if it ever happens again (god I hope not).
Rarely does a show get killed halfway through a season unlike network tv where your favourite pilot only lasts 4 weeks.

The problem is rarely does a show last more than a few seasons and that is mostly because of how contracts are written where you pay low for an unknown actors for 2/3 seasons and when those contracts are up for renewal you move on.

On network tv after 4 seasons it can be sold for syndication so many shows get cancelled. For netflix the money spent on new seasons keeps existing customers but does nothing to attract new ones. This forces netflix to create new shows that hopefully attract new subs.
Nice. It would be good to have a way to reset to get back to the initial state after zooming/panning.
Musk responds to 'Grifter' Classification by Dogecoin Co-Creator
Went through 2 weeks of insomnia after living on a ship for a while, then back on land for 2 weeks, then back on ship for 6 months -- was normal after finally returning. Maximum 1 hour sleep for 2 weeks straight, most nights none.

The thing about those two weeks, was with no sleep there is no "refresh" between days. If I asked myself the question of what I had for breakfast this morning, it would have multiple answers. The past several days were "today" in memory. It was very disconcerting. It did have a cool upside of reading several books in 2 weeks time, but the downside was feeling like everything in the world was wrong.

Thankfully when I went back on ship, I was able to sleep again -- best sleep I ever had with the rocking and white noise.
I think it's more a matter of comparing minivans (cloud "DWH" engines) to sports cars (Clickhouse et al) here.

Snowflake's performance characteristics & ops paradigm have always been more consistent with managed Spark than anything else. Thus the competition with Databricks. They have only recently started pretending to be anything than a low-maintenance batch processor with a nice managed storage abstraction, and their pricing model reinforces this.

That being said, for now it's pretty hard currently to find something that gives you:
- Bottomless storage
- Always "OK" performance
- Complete consistency without surprises (synchronous updates, cross table transactions, snapshot isolation)
- The ability to happily chew through any size join and always return results
- Complete workload isolation

...all in one place, so people will probably be buying Snowflake credits for a few years yet.

I'm excited about the coming generation--c.f. StarRocks and the Clickhouse roadmap--but the workloads and query patterns for OLAP and DWH only overlap due to marketing and the "I have a hammer" effect.

I don't think the slight misuse of either type of engine is bad at small-to-medium scale, either. It's healthy to make "get it done" stacks with fewer query engines, fewer integration points, and already-known system limitations.

Yes, although I'm not sure if the hidden streams use bandwidth. Also, to the best of my knowledge, Teams handles individual streams usually, while meet usually muxes them to save bandwidth. Zoom is easily the most efficient of the big four and I think uses a whole bunch of compression tricks.

The feds are making arrests just months after the crimes are committed, not years, which shows they do apparently care. It uncommon to make arrests for financial crimes so quickly. In the past it would take year, now they do it in months.

People who write these articles are making generalizations without looking at the actual evidence. They are still stuck on Enron. They overlook the smaller cases. Also, its not like Enron employees escaped jail time either.

Also huge sentences too in federal prison and no parole.

Yeah, I've stepped down from the highest index I've used due to the aberrations. Material and grinding techniques have improved since then in general, but it was quite distracting - shift my head a degree or two and bam, rainbow, and further to the edges of the lens it'd be 3+ distinct colored images of every light source.

It was kinda neat to be a walking spectroscope, and see what different light sources produced. But the novelty wears off fast when it starts blurring and coloring text on the outer edges of computer monitors. I'm plenty happy paying another $100-200 every few years for lenses that don't do that.
