BitTorrent is a product firm for record capacity that was purchased in July 2018 by Tron organizer Justin Sun for $140 million. The local badge of BitTorrent is BTT which is utilized to pay for administration. BTT was sent off through the Binance Launchpad to bring assets up in 2019.
BitTorrent (BTT) Price Prediction 2022

By taking a gander at the everyday diagram of BTT/USDT, the BTT cost was swinging from $0.00000094 to $0.00000092 in the wake of contacting the help levels of $0.00000088 and $0.00000086. It turned around from the help level of $0.00000086 and presently going sideways on the lookout and is supposed to be bullish before very long.
In the interim, our drawn out BTT price prediction for 2022 is bullish since it can't break the current help level soon. We can anticipate that BTT should reach $0.000002 in 2022.
Get back to me after Discord will be 25+ years as IRC and let's compare which how was each "dead" at that stage.

I couldn't care less about my ephemeral IRC account getting used (not sure why you call it stolen, if it's just there for anyone to take) by someone else, it's for sure much less important to me than sharing my email AND phone with some corporation, especially considering email would be more than enough to verify the user.
Honestly, I don’t even know if we’ll need humanity for the final product. It’s like using a chess computer to get an idea of a good move… and then a human to approve it? Adjust it? Be inspired by it?

Any signals humans give (painting x is better than y) is another signal to encode. Take billions of such ratings and improve the AI’s taste to superhuman levels.

In short, anything that humans would add to artistically improve the outcome is just another signal to be encoded. It’s weird to write it, but artistic creativity is deciding what new pixels go where, which is a search problem (in a large search space) which AIs are apparently doing great at.

We have a bias: we’re humans, we must be important somehow! But it comes down to a bigger neural net eventually outperforming the one in our heads.
Indeed, what he did by stepping down peacefully was highly unusual for a politician in his circumstances. It was like a miracle. And now we're seeing a more typical behavior from the successor of his successor.

It is too bad that in his later years he kinda regretted it, and kept saying "I should have kept going until the end". Perhaps it is natural to regret past decisions wondering if an alternative decision might have led to a better outcome. Hope that before he died he realized that had he pursued that alternative path he'd end up like Putin.

In summary -- Mr. Gorbachev was one of the most decent politicians and upstanding people in general that ever lived.

I think the correct term is 'syphon'. In my country we had this famous startup raising tens of millions with a product that existed only on paper. Suddenly tons of people employed with salaries triple of what's reasonably expected, tons of marketing fluff and very little substance. It looked almost identical to what OP described. Fast forward a couple of years, they still seem to be doing something but I bet owners did extract a few cool millions out of it.

I go on cruises with my computer full of videos. I will relax on deck while watching a movie (usually something funny) and time and time have someone how I get should good internet streaming. Then I get weird looks because I say I have no internet access, too many people do not even know that they so not need the internet to use their machines.

Worse, my single most important use of the computer I take is the deck plans of the ship I am on, it is invincible the amount of details you can find if you download the right plans. I find all the places onboard that often many cruisers do not know are there.
no its more than that... there is no "atmosphere" to them. they're just clean images. Its hard to explain.

This has been an incredibly helpful tool today exploring Stable Diffusion.

I'm starting to realize Stable Diffusion doesn't understand many words, but it's hard to tell which words are causing it problems when engineering a prompt. Searching this dataset for a term is a great way to tell whether Stable Diffusion is likely to "understand" what I mean when I say that term; if there are few results, or if the results aren't really representative of what I mean, Stable Diffusion is likely to produce garbage outputs for those terms.

Organisations who don't give architecture work to juniors are terrible places to work for juniors. Zero career progression. You can only really learn good architecture through practicing and making a lot of bad design decisions.

I did architecture work when I was a junior. It's what made me a senior. I got asked if I wanted to do architecture work recently. I told them that's what we hire juniors for.

Architecture is piss easy. Any senior thinking juniors can't do it are full of themselves.

Those who use Hashicorp products for free mostly would never pay for them. But some of those people will work in larger companies which would pay, and it is important for Hashicorp (Microsoft, Google, etc) that those people, as technical experts, would suggest buying the tools they know and love.
> the risk you take working for other things (ideals, status, etc) is that, if you become disillusioned, you're left with nothing.
> This has happened to friends of mine in social work.

Yes. Worse, after that many years working (e.g. in social work) for ideals|status|etc., whatever other employable skills (e.g. coding) that you may have had has now atrophied.

Even if you kept up your skills in your own time, you still have this long employment "gap" to get over in your job hunt / resume / interviewing.

So if you become disillusioned, you're left with nothing, and might now be stuck continuing to work in that disillusionment (to put food on the table).

Try "a green field with sheep on it" versus "a green field with robots on it". From a human position that feels like it should be a simple juxtaposition of objects onto a background. Clearly not so for this model.
If unmanaged nature does run wild with one or a few species, at some point they overstay their welcome and get rebalanced.

The problem being that in the example I made, this balance is still man-made and not really natural. I.e. if you'd done the same 500 years ago, you'd get a balance with more than a few species. If you'd done the same like 5000 years ago (give or take), things would be even more different because there were still large flocks of wild grazers around.

After a few years, that "weed" stops growing and the soil nitrogen levels are more normal.

Except the deposition keeps on going, so depends on what 'normal' is the reference compared against.

You're probably confusing "cryptographic hash functions" with "perceptual hashing" (or other forms of "locality-sensitive hashing"). In the case of the latter, what you say is almost always not true (that's the point of using "perceptual hashing" after all: similar objects get mapped to similar/same hash).

>Current Russian laws mean little to define Russia de facto.

There is a huge difference between real totalitarian state and present day Russia. In present day, there are less than 100 people have been imprisoned for "political" reasons (for violating foreign agent law or for violating army fakes law). It's widely discussed and criticised in Russian national media.

In 1937 alone something like 700000 people were executed by Stalin's NKVD, and millions were imprisoned. If I wrote comment like this, it surely leads to my imprisonment. That was totalitarian state, state when you are afraid to speak freely with your own family. Current Russian regime is nothing like that.

There was a general rule banning drones from Sagamartha national park, but actually you just need a permit. However if you are going over Everest, you are crossing the border from Nepal to Tibet (China), so you would have more of a challenge getting approval there.

In general though drones qualify as ‘quite annoying’, in national parks - particularly in areas like peaks or base camps where others are present.
Putin is definitely trying to nullify Gorbachev's accomplishments, but I like to think that he'll actually end up strengthening them against his own will, in that the catastrophe he has created thru his anti-Gorbachev mentality will serve as a lesson of history for future generations and politicians.

For example, racism was kinda considered "normal" before Hitler, but after Hitler, even people like Putin don't want to be deemed racist. Right now dictatorship is kinda considered "normal" too b/c so many countries still have dictators, but perhaps after Putin, no politician will want to be deemed a dictator.

Gorbachev wanted Russia to be a part of the Europe, and many say he was also assured of the same by the west (this is obviously contested now). But obviously this is against US political interests, as a stronger Europe weakens its hold on world power. And the US might have been right that Russia in Europe may have tilted Europe against it in the future, and the cold war would have continued perhaps in a milder form.

Why "besides"?

I would say that the Wireguard issue is worse than the speculation that pre-production firmware on unreleased routers was backdooring as they actually shipped it.

Of the three links about Huawei, one is someone in India claiming IP theft, one where they made up a claim of backdooring which the original security researchers rejected that claim, and one where it appears that hardware may have been tampered at the manufacturing stage by Americans.

Not exactly smoking gun, Huawei are evil and want to steal your data. I don't trust them, but then I don't trust a lot of the networking providers to not be compromised by a state actor.

Otherwise, they are probably the best of the bunch, purely because of the stack being mostly BSD.
I fail to see how the brain isn't doing a very similar thing?
People are being people. Intentions, philosophy, morals, etc. are nice but ultimately people spend money on products they like. And the moralizing philosophers ultimately don't make or sell a lot of products that match their rhetoric that people actually want to buy. The products that wow people tend to be provided by companies that have their own values (e.g. shareholder value) that they worry about instead of some set of morals.

So, Apple creates a beautiful phone and of course it's a closed source thing that they control because that's how they became Apple. And people buy it because it works really nice (apparently, I use Android myself). It's that simple. Something like the Pine phone is kind of crude in comparison. The people buying those tend to be very passionate about the perceived freedoms and flexibility they get with it. But it's not competing that well against the iphone ultimately because there just aren't that many people like that. Most people just want a phone that works.

For the same reason, Linux is failing to dethrone Microsoft and Apple for almost three decades now. Don't get me wrong, I actually have a Linux laptop and love using it. But it's not for everyone. IMHO Linux is not very usable unless you know your way around on a command line. Which is a skill I happen to have. It just lacks a lot of the polish of other alternatives and when you encounter any problems (and you will), the solution just almost always involves some cli action. You can fix it; but only if you know how to. Most people buy products they believe they won't have to fix. Of course that's a promise that's easily broken as well.

People pining for the days when all computer users were expert users are missing the point that they are now a tiny minority. That's what computer consumerization has meant. It empowered masses of non experts to use computers as well. Turning everyone into experts was never a goal.
