Government can track all money and its flows better. Can give directly to citizens without needing banks as middlemen. Can give money that “expires” - must be spent quickly to goose the economy and disappears if someone tries to save it. Can completely lock a person out of the economic system if the government doesn’t like them.

This is where Github Pages comes in handy. I have a few static sites that I rarely update, if ever. I have them hooked up to Cloudflare for the sole reason of having HTTPS/TLS since I can't figure out a way to HTTPS-ify domains hosted with Github (without using Cloudflare). If you know a way of doing this without using Cloudflare, let me know!

I mean compliance IMHO is their selling point: If you are working internationally you make sure that you correctly handle taxation/reporting or whatever to the standards. Other even trust you because you run SAP (which must be correct by definition). And because SAP is so big I think a lot of regulation/reporting requirements will be even done a way that it can be done with SAP. We are a university/research center hybrid and use SAP. As a state entity or funds are limited. Being in a 'nieche' with tons of strange accounting requirements, a very heterogeneous IT and without the money to get the reports/etc fixed quickly I can tell you how much hell SAP is on the other hand.

I think it is more of an indicator of overall prosperity, which may, in fact cause civilizational decline. I'm reminded of the mouse utopia[0], and my own family.

There was a much more intersting version of this on the strangely awesome game show Solitary ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solitary_%28TV_series%29?wprov... ) where they had people get in a "coffin like" box and try to come out after exactly one hour, closest one won.

I wonder if this is in any way a useful skill.

I found it at my local Meny here in Oslo. I see they have it in their web shop, direct link broken but search for "Country Ketchup", so good chance you'd get it up there in Trondheim. If they don't have it I'd ask. It's expensive but very flavorful so I find it lasts a good while.

How about the tracking pixel ? Is this also dissapearing ?
I think the answer is in your question: All forms of money you currently use online (bank-transfer, Zelle, credit card, etc.) are owned and operated by private entities. None of them are public money like cash is, backed by the central bank.

CBDC is intended to be a digital equivalent of cash, so that people have a public money option for digital purchases. It could mean anything from everyone having an account at the central bank to a card holding value that you can get from someone and tap to your phone to order an Uber.
I can't find a source with the full paper at all. And I'm guessing that's why there is no comment here.
> and in my experience they are wrong - with the exception of accounting

> I don't work with SAP ..

Yeah.. that's just it. Your experience doesn't matter. Adjusting your business to fit SAP nearly as much as an unspoken requirement. It's not just a smart bit of wisdom people throw around. It's literally what you have to do if you want to have any hope of implementing SAP successfully, because it is such a colossal, messy charlie-foxtrot that there is no hope otherwise. Not even SAP's own people understand their own mess.
Out of curiosity, how is this paper any different from the multitude of already known catastrophic outcomes from exceeding the 1.5deg temperature target?
Both.

Seriously. I'm not going to be reading Go code and all the sudden forget what error handling looks like.
Lots of legit projects encourage this practice. Especially with quotes, it's a reasonable expectation that you're getting a literal. Conversely, it's unreasonable to expect that everyone can parse shell escape strings in their brains.

Now this example wasn't exactly well camouflaged, but I'd not be surprised if you can make it much more innocent looking.
Compute Canada (now the Digital Research Alliance of Canada, http://alliancecan.ca/) has been using CVMFS in production for nearly 7 years now. We use it to distribute all of the software environment used by our researchers on all of our national clusters, as well as to make it available for researchers themselves and university owned computers, and virtual machines or virtual clusters in the cloud. Documentation on using it on any Linux computer here: https://docs.alliancecan.ca/wiki/Accessing_CVMFS.

CVMFS has been essential in making a uniform user-facing software environment available throughout our distributed infrastructure (we have 5 different clusters located across the country, totalizing over 250k cores, close to 2k GPUs, and something like 200PB of disk storage).

It is a proven geo-distributed redundant and high performance (through local caching) filesystem which enables a install-once-available-everywhere strategy. Our software stack currently hosts over 1150 different scientific software packages in over 2800 versions, and built optimized for multiple CPU architectures, totalizing nearly 10k different builds. This is in addition to nearly 10k python packages which we make available in the form of python wheels.

Our software stack now is close to 8TB in size, and contains tens of millions of files.

Wow. This is really great work!
fully agree, think what you're saying is a misread of my comment. GP said "literally everyone says this thing is bad." My comment was "Well, clearly there were people not telling them [or else they'd probably have stopped short of $500,000,000 in expenditures]".

Your comment is a mechanistic explanation of the failure mode, which again, I quite agree with. I worked at PwC for a couple of years; quite corrupt incentive structures and quite a dysfunctional organization because of it.
I think this was a good and balanced take on the situation. Patreon giving their entire security team the axe without any notice should make anyone step back and rethink using their service.

Unless some major creators that use Patreon begin a very public exodus from the site, I'm not sure too many regular users are going to be leaving though. The blackmail risk of having your subscription history leaked won't even register for a lot of users.
One goal of e-CNY is to be an alternative to USD payment systems like SWIFT which the Western governments hve used to enforced sanctions.

China has a problem with the regular currency has a lot of restrictions on it. People can't just trade CNY for USD or something else because there are controls to prevent this. China wants e-CNY to be a platform for Chinese trade also third parties outside the USD umbrella, eg Brazil with Nigeria or Venezuela trading with Iran. I dont honestly know how that is possible to do both CNY with restrictions and e-CNY which is open, but its definitely important to China and much of the world. https://www.scmp.com/economy/global-economy/article/3191393/...

This is the biggest part of life that people just don't get and has always bothered me.

I can't stand people that are always-positive and nice all the time. I know they are lying and holding stuff back --- but what? I'd rather be friends with someone honest than nice. At least I know what they are thinking, and thus actually know them. Some people would rather just go through life in a mask and insist everyone else wear one too -- something I generally refuse to do.

If you work on a healthy team, public comments are better from my POV.

I can remember many times, specially on new teams that I just joined, that by reading PRs, specially following https://conventionalcomments.org/, I get much faster the motto and the spirit of the team.

You have the context and the focused discussions on the same place. You can also check how much time it took to deliver and even connect easier to the outcomes of the deliverables.

If the discussion gets too subjective, use the team private chat, with threaded comms, then a direct call.

I know it depends on the urgency as well, but we should strive for general efficiency, not efficiency only during rush / at the end of sprint.

That's why also I prefer to open WIP PRs with incomplete code. Open discussions beforehand.

Also, repeated questions and similar problems can be retrieved from the chat / comments history.

Now, for early designs, spikes, initial research on an epic/hard tasks, needs some sync comms, followed by some asynchronous comments and questions.

Even things like "yesterday we discussed during a call x, y and z, and we agreed on w. it still holds up? In this case, I will use the strategy N to develop the solution, please comment back if you changed your mind".

It helps me a lot, and the people that I asked about this kind of message are heavily positive on it, because it's neutral enough and consolidates the agreement.

Then after a few weeks working close to someone (same team, for instance), I can make that phrase shorter, because we established a protocol.

Now that said, under my new contract, the entire team is almost silent on chat and everything is a direct call with 4 people on avg. I'm wrecked today because of 5 consecutive 30min~1h meetings to sync information yesterday.
Same. I wonder what causes it.
Jeez, don't mention Gartner. If I see another $%&" "magic quadrant" in my life it'll be too soon.
Introducting our best feature yet: the paywall detector
At Notnow.email we believe reading is one of the best way to open up to the best our world has to offer. And when it comes to that there should be nothing that stands in your way.

That’s why we would like to introduce our new feature: the paywall detector.

Within each daily digest, our paywall detector searches for websites reported as using a paywall to redirect you to a readable version, as always with the design our users know and love.

Now, with each new feature, nothing is perfect and there still is room for improvement. For now we listed over 170 websites using paywalls, from over 20 countries, such as Wired, Le Parisien and El Mundo, but the Internet is always evolving and it’s hard to keep up so if you find a website that uses a paywall we don’t detect feel free to report it at https://github.com/notnow-email/notnow.email/issues/3 so we can add it to our list as soon as possible.

Your feedback is really important to us and you can always write us at feedback@notnow.email about bugs, improvements or to share your experience about our beloved service.

Thanks for using Notnow.email, it really means a lot to us.

> The influencer+scam industry, in an economically constrained period, can lead to an evolution of our belief system, from the liberal 'i get what i deserve, mostly' to the fascist 'if I'm not as (good/well of/...) as I can be, it's because of this outgroup, and particularly him'. Both are fondamental attribution error fallacy, but one is really, really more violent than the other.

A heckler's veto, even a potentially fatal one, isn't an acceptable reason to curtail rights. In justifying such bad reasoning on the grounds of the violence that may ensue, you're arguing that one must preemptively surrender to terrorism.

You're also making an error of you're own: a slippery slope. By what method would this liberal society you speak of descend into fascism? And why a fascist state? Why not an monarchial empire? Mass violence isn't particularly limited to any one kind of government.

So when the fed reserve decides inflation is too high because they printed too much money and kept interest rates low- instead of trying to "soften the labor market"/drive unemployment up and more people into poverty - with a digital currency, they can simply zap your money away. No need for financial "austerity" for the poor's to endure. What could go wrong?

This doesn't get to the social credit scores we see in use in China, and how a solely digital currency lends power to that system. We are already doing it to the market with ESG scores, wait til you have an ESG score for your personal life.

But I'm just a guy that thinks that the federal reserve just needs to be abolished. It's just a clever mechanism to ensure that monetary system doesn't let the wealth spread out too much. It's all done through cycles of recessions and booms, where they take wealth from the pockets of poor people and hand it to the ultra wealthy to consolidate more assets.

Just anecdata, but I have been running with non-pro AirPods for years with no problems like one you describe. I tend to sweat a lot, so by the end of the run they are pretty wet. No shorting or other electrical issues.

The only problem I've had was ear wax buildup (yeah, gross, I know) with the first/second AirPods generation (the ones with the long stem). I was able to use alcohol & hydrogen peroxide to clean them up a bit, but eventually the sound is muffled pretty bad.

I have recently switched to a pair of the latest version, AirPods 3 (with the shorter stems) and they seem to be made better in general. No sound problems and they seem to stay cleaner with minimal regular cleaning. I use a toothpick to gently remove any buildup as needed. The fit of the 3s is significantly different that the older version and did require some getting used to. They are a bit larger in the ear.
What percentage of searches require something this complex? I’ve been using Google for 20 years now and I’d be hard-pressed to remember a single time when I pined for a more complex interface.

The vast majority of my searches are simple, so I just do my first search and then (in order of frequency) find what I was looking for, do a second search that is either more or less complex than the first, or forget why I was searching in the first place.

Since the results from my first search are often enough, why would I want the interface to do that search to be more complex when the complexity is rarely needed?
Recent research argued that the loss of the Greenland ice sheet is now inevitable: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/aug/29/major-se...

Given the lag in the climate, isn’t 1.5C warming more or less unavoidable now? We would need extremely steep emissions reductions that aren’t happening.

I enjoyed ‘Under a Green Sky’, which combines a brief history of palaeontology (and amusing academic point settling) with the prediction that warming will eventually cause huge releases of hydrogen sulphide.

We are perhaps entering a negative feedback loop where disruption makes countries less keen to work together on emissions reductions as metaphorical bridges get pulled up (is Russia going to bother even pretending to care any more?).
