In the grandparent example, it seems the new owner is a trust, which is also liable for paying the taxes (or there can be action taken against its property i.e. the house), but the person owning/controlling that trust is obscured.

Perhaps a relevant different example I've seen sometimes is that in some markets for tax reasons developers who build larger buildings (offices, apartments) will make a separate LLC for each building, so when they want to sell it, the title to the real estate doesn't change hands (it still belongs to the same company) but rather they sell the whole "company" instead with the building as its main/only asset.
A fair few of the features coming from functional languages are also available in OCaml though I feel like I haven't seen quite the same surge there. And in cases like Rust and F# MLs were the inspiration for how they built their functional feature sets as far as I know.
To me this makes so much sense. A file, the name of which only I know, encrypted on my local disk. Cut and paste from vim. No easy target. (Obscurity IS a security feature of certain system elements. But NOT encryption algorithms, obviously). Every hacker and his brother is pounding away at the on-line password systems. My one-off system on my personal laptop ... not a juicy target.
I'm not sure, it anecdotally appears to me that not-so-smart people tend to get angrier over political problems, for example, and just problems in general.
I see supabase as a missed opportunity to innovate in a space that desperately needs it. It could have been a product that fundamentaly reimagined the developer experience of working with a database. Instead they opted to mostly stick to the existing sql paradigm combined with some firebase-mimicking features. So what they end up with is a service that offers some marginal improvements over other, established database services but nothing truly game-changing.
This is why I have avoided Roth IRAs.

The deal with IRAs is "put in pre-tax money; we'll tax it when you take it out". The deal with Roth IRAs is "put in post-tax money; it won't be taxed when you take it out". My fear is that the deal will change by the time I'm ready to take it out - that Roth IRAs will in fact be taxed on withdrawal a decade or two from now.
Since the broker mixes up all the shares they buy anyhow, how would Tesla know it is you who has voting rights? How would they know whom to pay dividends?

Isn't it all an abstraction by your broker anyhow? They just show you pixels on your screen, that you have "received" dividends. But its not like Tesla sent them to you. Its just an illusion your broker creates on your screen.
From the latest documentation[1]:

StatefulSets are valuable for applications that require one or more of the following.

Stable, unique network identifiers.

Stable, persistent storage.

Ordered, graceful deployment and scaling.

Ordered, automated rolling updates.

To me it doesn't appear the hope is actually that we leave the world better off then before.

Otherwise the actions of the US Military and intelligence services would be much different, with longer term consequences thought through and impacts on peoples lives taken into broader consideration.

To me, it looks like the hope is actually maintaining financial control of the resources of other nations. Every action I see indicates that.

But the US is hardly alone in this respect either, just the most recent example.
As long as the operator is really well designed but it is rarely the case. I switched from helm to bare k8s manifest for the same reason, helm/operator can be helpful, but not when the maintainer introduces breaking change (that does not relate to the service by itself) that needs a delete/deploy of the k8s resources

> At least in the US, house purchases are by default anonymous. The only reason I know the sellers of my house is because they put in their trust name their full legal names.

But most homeowners don't have the house in a trust. That's mostly a rich-people thing. The default is that it's your personal name(s) on the documents, including in e.g. county tax records.
What I see is months of not needing to operate a mower.
Let's be clear - this isn't money laundering. Money laundering is taking illicit funds and making them look legitimately sourced. Tornado Cash does not do this, it is clear that the source is Tornado Cash, and it does nothing to legitimize funds. To spend crypto you still most likely need to convert it to fiat and that fiat money will still be under scrutiny for its source.

Could maths be used to prove the exact opposite, to show why the earth still has rings?

I know it doesn't, but I say you can use maths to prove whatever you like.

So, 'maths' as an answer, is not satisfactory to me.

AFAIK, all this discussion is in the realms of hypothesis.

> This was in addition to the $9.5 million in power credits awarded to them for not drawing power away from an already strained ERCOT power grid

And later:

> "By providing power back into the ERCOT grid during periods of peak demand, the Company estimates that power credits and other benefits from curtailment activities totaled an estimated $9.5 million, significantly outweighing the reduction in BTC mined

This seems to contradict the headline: the company was paid because it didn't draw power from ERCOT and instead fed power back into it during peak demand.
Full of good sense. They do try to control the terminal to do a secure boot:

> We want our devices to only run software that we wrote. This isn't like a personal computer where the user can install apps or save files – the only software we want to run on our devices is software that we've explicitly built, tested, and signed off on.

> The same concepts that go into secure boot on our satellites are also useful on the Starlink user terminals. Even though we know that an attacker with persistent and invasive physical access will eventually be able to defeat secure boot on their own device, the protections of secure boot are still valuable for protecting against remote attacks over the Internet (or over wifi). There is a big difference between being able to take your own device off your roof and
attack it, vs. someone else being able to compromise your device without you noticing.

But recognize that it's not foolproof:

> We expect attackers with invasive physical access to be able to take malicious actions on behalf of a single Starlink kit using its identity, so we rely on the design principle of "least privilege" to constrain the effects in the broader system. We treat Starlink user terminals as inherently untrusted and only expose the minimal necessary information and capabilities to each specific client.

The article talks about the researcher "exploring the Starlink network" as if there's a screen on the satellites that will suddenly display "Access Granted" with a blinking cursor now that he's achieved root on his own dish. Getting access to the dish is an important step if the former is to be achieved, but it's by far the easier of the two steps.
You just rephrased what GP said, in a more snarky manner.

The point is that countries have to keep their farms in working condition, whatever we make farmers do. And yes, biofuels are a way to achieve that, the alternative would be to farm too much mustard, which is not ideal either.

And yes, as a side effect, a bad harvest in Canada and and a war in Ukraine can cause a temporary shortage of a non-essential food item. It sucks, but worse things happened in the last 2-3 years, including shortages, and it wasn't about farming. And I say that as someone who is directly affected by the mustard shortage.
I would say more like the restoration company coming in to fix the cracks, tune the escalators, remove the grime from the murals, etc...

Still has dirty work involved, but it's important and meaningful.

Not that I'm implying a janitor sweeping the floors isn't also meaningful (just have them stop for a few weeks and see how many people suddenly notice) but I believe legacy code maintainers often have significantly more control and leeway in how they resolve issues than they might believe at first.
> If you're opening a connection to TCP/80 it's a safe assumption that you want the web server.

Yes, and if you're opening a connection to TCP/21, it's a safe assumption that you want the FTP server. But what if these two are different machines, possibly even in separate and distant networks?

There are detailed answers to all these questions if you care to study it.
How is the legal link between an NFT and "intellectual property" made? "IP" is one of those real world legal things that NFTs work around by convention. Does buying a Bored Ape NFT grant you the copyright, or is there some other legal instrument that needs to happen?
But often not where the resources are allocated. You want to be in the area of the company that’s raining money not the cost center. Code maintenance is more of a cost center

yes, compiled Wheels really are the way to go, but anything.py is going to be able to run custom code, that's the point. And like you said, the code will likely be run on the machine anyway. Minor rant, but I think it's much worse that NPM installs can run custom code, since many(most?) npm modules are only run in a browser, it actually does open up more of a security risk.

> Companies should focus on data minimization, not maximization.

Precisely
Which confuses me, frankly.

When do you not need automated rolling updates? Or stable network identifiers? I'm sure there are cases, but it seems like supporting them should be the default -- are statefulsets somehow expensive?
I don't know about others, but Google provides me relevant and useful results each and every time. I have no plans to switch to DDG or Bing or anything else anytime soon.
Persistent storage is its own API, you don't need to use it with a satefull set. All of the other properties are implied by stable task names.

And I would guess the doc is a bit of after the fact justification for a design choice already made.
IMO, polarizing for political decisions.

Distributed systems are harder to reason about, and so people have different feelings on the maintenance burden. Things get complicated around career goals and personal goals like resume driven development.

The odd gate-keeping duality is due to large super corporations dominating the public discussion, while smaller firms and developers fight back.

The truth is more nuanced though. Most places don't need or have high quality and highly available software, and can STILL make millions of dollars a year.
Banks, and critical infrastructure SHOULD have very scalable software in key places. I know for a fact many investment banks have tons of good scalable software, and tons of absolute shit software depending on where you look.
Quite a number of people have been assassinated by random people with mental health issues. Of course, it would be naïve to not suspect a relation to Islamic fundamentalism, but as a public person you're kind of always at risk, and you can never know the motivation.

It doesn't really matter if that's reported today or tomorrow, when we can operate on facts rather than assumptions (even if those assumptions are likely to be true). And taking back wrong reporting is basically impossible as many people will never see the correction.

It does work on m1, you might run into more issues compared to intel based Macs though. I wouldn't call nix painless. It might take some time to figure out the packages required, proper env variables to setup etc. But, once somebody in the team figures out the details, it will likely work for everyone in the team and others don't have to go through same pain. The whole setup is isolated to a single project and will not affect other projects. The setup for a old rails project pinned to a ruby version with few dependencies might look like below

I am not sure about the 40m cases. But the 10-15 years is true. The civil cases in the country can drag on for a generation or more. I have personally witnessed one such case where the plaintiff has died of old age.
>Since that hypothesis has been defended for decades as unquestionable truth by the vast majority of cosmological theorists, the new data is causing these theorists to panic.

Wrong. Nothing is presented as unquestionable truth in science. It is the predominent model. Just because some people might seem present it as TRUTH, doesn't mean that any scientist actually thinks that it is. Or, put another way, if shown a better model, scientists will instantly change their views to the newer better model.

The only place one can find TRUTH, never changing TRUTH, is in religion. You are never able to change someone's religious worldview with new facts. Shit, Jesus christ himself could come back to earth, and if he said that christians got it all wrong, the christians would hang him on the cross again - how dare Jesus fluck with their beliefs?

That allows for interference with someones privacy.

Basically, interference of privacy based on reason or system is allowed.

It does give you the right to not be subjected to interference of your privacy from random choice or personal whim is not.

According to the article, that right has not been broken.

Moreover, you do not have a right to privacy.

Rather, you have a the right to not have your privacy arbitrarily interfered with.

This is a pretty important distinction.
The last generation of CPUs and GPUs was released in a very hot market, all signs seem to point to the opposite for this generation.
The borrower puts up more than 100% the value in collateral to borrow stock and they are also insured.

The risk of stock lending is very low.

Anything you do with a securities broker, the risk of losing something due to the other side of the trade going bankrupt, etc is very very low.

Your broker has to have collateral to support closing your position, likewise for the other side of the transaction. A broker ends up holding the bag if something goes wrong and it’s their fault for allowing a customer to open a position they couldn’t close.
Intel legitimately will never be allowed to die, as an US company that owns fabs themselves that is fairly removed from foreign geopolitics.
Already Lotus 1-2-3 for MS-DOS had named ranges.

As Excel was made since the beginning as a replacement for Lotus 1-2-3, I believe it also must have had named ranges at least from its version for MS Windows 3.0.

IIRC, when I have first used Excel, which was the Windows 95 version, it had them.
You're right, but you don't make a string claim or cite evidence, thus the downvotes. Here's the facts:

On the question of "Asian Americans as a group are more loyal to their country of origin than to the United States", Democrats experienced a 60% increase year over year in agreement (22=>35), whereas Republicans experienced only a 36% increase (24=>33).

On the question of "Asian Americans as a group are at least partly responsible for COVID-19", Democrats experienced a 135% increase year over year in agreement (10=>24), whereas Republicans experienced only a 91% increase (13=>25).

Now for my take on these facts:

I don't find either particularly concerning. There certainly are some Asian Americans who are more loyal to their country of origin than to the United States, and that ground truth number may or may not be accurately represented by these surveys in one or both years. There's no way to know from the information we are provided, and there's no reason to make a value judgement either way. (Is it "wrong" for someone to be more loyal to their home country?)

Regarding COVID, in my opinion Asian Americans as a group are absolutely at least partly responsible for COVID-19... but so is every other group! To claim that any group holds absolutely no responsibility of our collective handling of the global pandemic is absurd. We're all in this together.

Seems like there are some underlying political issues around this clinic.
Technology advances by increasing the number of things a person can do without really thinking about them.

Any technology that fails to do this isn't a real "advancement" --- most likely just existing stuff being re-packaged and sold --- aka "snake oil".

OOP is mostly "snake oil". For every problem it potentially solves, it creates a new/different one. Which problem set to embrace is largely a matter of personal preference. For every case where OOP offers utility, there is another where it brings futility.

Those who really benefited the most from creating a new set of problems --- academics and trainers. Lots of time, energy and money has been spent/earned teaching others to hail the magic of OOP.
> adding features to and improving legacy systems, IMO, is just as valid of a skill

Except you are invested in languages and technologies that are falling into disuse and may not be used anywhere else.

And most of the legacy maintenance roles are staffed by legacy employees. I don't think there is much of a market for this particular skill.
Tesla knows because, even if the stock is held in street name, my broker still registers me as the beneficial owner.

The difference between receiving a dividend paid to the beneficial owner of stock and receiving a payment-in-lieu of a dividend is very much not illusory - there can be significant tax implications.
It’s unimportant because resources don’t really get allocated to that area and while it might be the companies core commodities the folks working then are largely overlook in the company hiarchy
This guy is a legend. He lives in the heads of half of the Islamic world rent-free since publishing a book 30 years ago that illustrated just how fragile can be one's perception of reality, opening up many avenues for political manipulation. He touched a sore spot there. And yet he is not the one mocking religion, the religious people are mocking it themselves by treating it and their God as a fragile thing subject to books and magazines written by foreigners thousands of miles away.

The change I want to see is broad recognition that Republican leaders are leveraging latent racism for political gain, so that moderate voters turn away from the party and it is forced to abandon that cynical strategy, which is actively dividing the country.
I was not highlighting the author's background to appeal to authority. I was pointing out that what OP dismissed as "coder philosophy drivel" (likely from skimming the title and nothing else) was written by someone who has nothing to do with that field.

In fact, by doing that, OP made an anti-appeal-to-authority. You seem to be interested in logical fallacies.. could you help me out and tell me if that one has a specific name?
Consider a job of N identical API servers. Your request can go to any of them. To update we could just add new tasks and take away old tasks. It's a gradual update, but not "rolling" is the sens that each task name has a single love instance at a time.
Sparse block storage is one of the cloud features I miss most. What I'd expect:

* You can create a volume, but pay only for in-use blocks.

* You create a volume bigger than what you'll ever need => no resizing required (At least 16 TiB, but possibly even something crazy like an exabyte)

* There is some kind of "trim" operation that marks a block as free

* Ideally it's possible to choose the maximum block index (size of block-volume) independently from the maximum number of in-use blocks (for cost control)
> Wrench attacking 10% of your population is impossible.

With digital goods/currencies, you just need to compromise their software. It's actually a lot easier, logistically, to confiscate bitcoin from 10% of your population than to confiscate cash from the same. How hard and for how long do you think Apple/Microsoft/Google could resist a legal mandate to block/confiscate bitcoin passing through the computer/phone OS that you use?
There's nothing stopping your routers from looking at the TCP port number to decide which network/host to route packets to. ;-)

This feels conspiratorial, but is actually also incorrect. Rushdie didn't actually receive much support in the media around the fatwa, the popular narrative in certain types of publications was that he had brought it on himself.
Nobody said it didn't protect privacy. Obviously, that is the technology's function.
