> purely digital world

The world doesn't need to be purely digital, and crypto doesn't need to be the entire worlds economy. In fact, my argument is that it's NOT. It's something seperate, and unique and new. It's not a replacement for the economy, it's an addition to it. Though i'm sure a plumber could find a useful digital service hosted in crypto... i'd argue crypto isn't for plumbers. Not their plumbing business at least.

Imagine a git + smart contract service (this doesn't really exist today, and it's my side project i'm trying to build) which is integrated with a hosting service like Akash (cosmos). You can build new digital services/games/worlds that are governed in a decentralized way. You could build a new Facebook for example. The difference here, are changes are voted on by the owners of the token. I'm not even sure the token would be worth a whole lot monetarily (depends how the owners). But as a user, how much is having control over the social media you use daily worth? To me, A lot.

Everything in crypto is open source, but unlike the open source world today, crypto provides a mechanism and culture to pay contributors. So a lot of crypto applications are designed to capture that value in a communial way to pay people (or bots) for their work. The value of the crypto is access to these services. It's no different from the value our digital economy today provides. Just governed differently. Instead of Zuck controlling the digital service, the users can control the digital service.
Yes, but it is totally different with a traditional IDE. It should not be compared with that.

It is designed for educational purposes. So it shows some basic concept like "class", "object" and VM.

You can create an object from a class, and run some method from the object. Which is very useful when you are teaching something to beginners.

But for programmers, just use a professional IDE.
I wouldn't call it lottery. In a lottery, you have to buy a ticket.
I remember a long time ago, reading about Semantic Web and intelligent agents and dreaming of a Natural Language interface for planning journeys…

“I want to travel from Seville to Berlin next October, avoiding weekends, for a two or three nights stay in a hotel by the river. Direct flights preferred.”
Is there a document on how cachegrand achieves this speed over redis?
If you are forced to use the internet to earn money, minimize the noise: get Firefox + ublock origin for starters. After that, get a raspberry pi and install pihole on it, and search for different lists for it to block various aspects of the internet on your network: on top of ads/trackers, you can block porn, social media, gambling sites. You can also view semi real time which domains are loading on your network and which device is using it, and blocking it right there and then. Using pihole will greatly improve your relationship with the internet and information in general. You can also set your router to disable wifi between say 23:00 and 05:00, if you have trouble disconnecting. Even better if you can trim it to 21:00 and 07:00, but make sure your family knows.

Try to prefer long form content over short ones, especially comments. Reading hundreds of comments a day is like having hundreds of conversations a day - it will exhaust you. By extension, do not do it before bed. Leave your phone in another room to charge. The bedroom's purpose should be rest and relaxation (sleep & sex & self care) only. Try to remove every other thing from it that gives it more functions (tv/desk/excercise equipment). Do not eat in bed.
Copyiright infringement is not and has never been theft.
Blocking ads is also not copyright infringement.
And copyright infringement is also not piracy.
Actual piracy is of course not ok since it generally involves depriving others of something, often their lives.
How do you define "quiet quitting"?

Doing the absolute minimum required not to get fired?

Or not meeting unreasonable expectations? Working unpaid overtime, responding to emails outside working hours, etc.
My experience was quite the opposite: We used this IDE in the first (maybe two) semesters of my Computer Science bachelor's programme (obviously not for all classes), and it was great. BlueJ allowed us to focus on the modeling and structure aspects of programs. For introduction into OOP it was a very nice tool.

Obviously after a couple of months, it's quite limiting – you don't want to write any proper programs in it, but for educational purposes and classes it's great.
Twitter really needs to sort out what it means to be "verified", when you're presented with this: https://imgur.com/a/HjOF0gS

It's so barely different to an actual twitter thread where the same person is saying all three parts.
All these are arguments in favour of PoS which I agree with.

More bullshit equating the human mind to an AI. Newsflash, boyo - humans are not NNs, there is no reason legal precedent should treat humans the same as NNs (and it won't).
Mempool, Dao, and Blockchain Explained – The Web3 Glossary
Finding best value product at lowest cost, what technique do I use?
Cost: 100,99

Read Speed: 545,550

Write Speed: 525,520

Warranty: 3,4

This means that there are 2 products that cost 100$ and 99$. Their read speed is 545 MB/s and 550 MB/s. Their write speed is 525 MB/s and 520 MB/s respectively. Their warranty is 3 years and 4 years respectively. Now, I need to choose the best product between the two.

What technique do I use to solve this? This is just a dummy problem because I want to learn the technique to solve these kinds of problems for bigger scales like 50 different products..
Vitalik has a book coming out at the end of this month which includes many of his blog posts and explains the narrative from Ethereum's creation to the work on the Merge: https://www.amazon.com/Proof-Stake-Ethereum-Philosophy-Block...
Thanks.

What prevents me from just signing my own QR code though? I could register a very similar domain, sign it, make it look all official and then siphon funds.

A third party could revoke my signature, but then we are dependent on that third party for everything, which isn't ideal either.
Anyone else stressed out how good ML approach is advancing in AI? I feel left behind...
> ...there is no soul, but free will does exist.

This is an interesting one, depending on whether you subscribe to the beliefs that the universe is deterministic or not. If determinism were to be truly possible, then technically with enough information you could predict what is going to happen next, what anyone is going to think, say, do etc.

In that case "free will" wouldn't be an entirely correct description. Then again, even if that were to be true, the amount of processing power to see how this "preordained" sequence of events would play out might be orders of magnitude more than laws of physics might permit, making it all a bit of a moot point.

That said, there was a cool science fiction story about the concept, "What's expected of us": https://www.nature.com/articles/436150a

Of course, I doubt whether "free will" being real or not would matter that much to people in actuality.

For example, my current understanding of the world makes me feel that once I eventually die, there will be nothing after that and I'll cease to exist. A moment in which my consciousness will exist and then another one in which it will no longer do so and will never do so, until the heat death of the universe (it won't matter to me then because there won't be a "me", but knowing that whilst being alive is the most horrible thought ever).

It's quite dreadful, yet somehow I still get up for menial programming work every morning. :')
They can use Apple's WeatherKit REST API which is the replacement for the Dark Sky API.

Garmin really doesn't seem to understand that in this day and age they are supposed to be a software company as much as they are a hardware company.
> It's the law that matters here.

So - keeping this argument purely in terms of IP law - can you explain what the case is for these images to have been illegally used?
That sounds like fearmongering to me. And also condescending fearmongering, as you assume I need 'hints'.

Going back to your argument about all other categories of energy usage, transport using ICE should be feared more, in particular the way huge ships not only pollute the atmosphere but also the oceans.

In fact, I believe you intended to mean only electricity in your comment, but the condescending got the best of you.
You are simply trolling. People working with Lisp today are not doing tinkering in a retrocomputing context in order to recreate past experiences --- though there will always be a few of those hobbyists too, to be sure.

It is not comparable to Amiga because you can deliver a solution in Lisp on the users' current platform, and they don't even know or care what you used. You can't put an Amiga solution into production such that the users don't know you're deploying Amigas (unless it's some emulated Amiga VM hidden under a hood or something and not actual hardware).
I can't "try it" because I am not an injured party, me not being an artist that has published any image ever. That being said, the existing "relationship" between google and news publishers in the context of EU court decisions is already convincing enough about the direction this is going to go down (and google's usage of news didn't even have to cost a single person their job, unlike how this will).
Quiet quitting is a dumb term.

It's just doing your job. And of course it works anywhere.
From your link: “ As a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the use of the term anti-vaxxer has both increased and broadened.”

It used to refer to parents which completely refused to vaccinate their children. It has transformed into a weapon, like racist, fascist, etc and is used to silence and manipulate discourse.
The posters on r/the_donald with disagree with you about the 2020 election being stolen too... a subreddit's fringe opinion doesn't move the needle on what is factual.

> could you recommend serious references like books?

we are writing history not books

beside jokes and comments. as any research field it's difficult to have books yet and catch-up with everything is hard, i feel your struggle. said that, as i can see from the comments, there are already some good resources where you can learn and catch-up.

fwiw, i followed this in the 2018, i learnt foundations with the book mastering in ethereum and then by articles starting from a specific domain. like you would do in academic research.

Normally I am a fan of what is published by Soaked but I feel some of these definitions are a bit over-simplified. For instance, the definition on bridges doesn't quite do justice to how vulnerable they can be to attack.
Oh, you meant the connector itself.

I guess because it is good enough? SCSI couldn't scale to higher throughputs afaict, while the RJ45 mostly doesn't impact speeds at all.

I think Rafale uses Martin-Baker seats. The only story I can find in the news is that time a retiree actidentally ejected himself by grabbing onto the ejection seat handle though.
All you have to do is look at a chart of excess deaths to disprove this.

It depends on which type of Q, I think.

Some companies, like Costco, are in their Q1 period right now.
They do mention the issue of osmosis in the video which factors into the 10% difference as well.

The floating bag gains outside air over time since it isn't really under pressure internally. This displaces the helium in the bag and therefore, it doesn't provide as much lift. There is no way to remove the air without just emptying the bag. Which they said they do yearly.

So, like a sushi restaurant, make sure you time your visit well.
'Tail handling' in general is an annoying aspect of simd. Masks are great, but no panacea--in particular, if you unroll, then you cannot take care of the tail with a single masked instruction. There are various solutions to this. I favour overlapping accesses, where that's feasible (following a great deal of evangelism from mateusz guzik); a colleague uses a variant of duff's device; you can also just generate multiple masks.

I would expect the linked code is just intended as a quick poc, so it does not bother to be optimal.
Really cool project!

Are there any downsides - for example performance or operational overhead - of using Constellation over vanilla K8s?
i can't understand Step 4:

I copy these bytes with the quotes and backslash characters.

can anybody explain what this means?
I guess one could say that actually complicated code makes up for less than 5-10% of any non trivial project. Beyond that I agree with the underlying point, getting stakeholders to clearly state their needs in a way that’s actionable is the hardest part.
First three shots are still offered for anyone who wants them. This is solely about a fourth BA.1 updated booster.
I don't think this analogy holds up.
Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. To me it seems much more like the increased demand has generated a lot of competition and that got prices way down from the levels just 5-10 years ago.
There is no reason PoW-incentivized energy development would have to be only used for PoW.

PoW means there can now be a buyer of last resort no matter when and where you are generating power. Newly developed renewable based electricity can be sold at "x" price when there is residential or commercial demand, and at "y" price (y < x) to a PoW miner otherwise.

In this scenario there may not have been enough demand at price "x" to finance the renewable development, but the PoW buyer of last resort makes it feasible.
> It's been fascinating for the last couple of years to see how these daily armchair epidemiologist threads have transitioned from largely in support of vaccines to now largely against them.

Yes, it has. Although the people haven't changed, the information has, and the most stubborn of people are still defending their initial thesis without any ability to re-examine their priors if they were wrong and actually doing very messed up things to their fellow citizens. They are dug in; because to do otherwise would be having to face guilt.
Fair point about Apple buying out the output of TSMC's 5nm line - but Nvidia used Samsung's 8nm process. One could argue some orders were displaced due to TSMC being booked out, thus crowding Samsung's capacity as a cascade effect, driving prices up, or that Nvidia would have used a different process or booked capacity on both factories if it was possible.... but on the other hand Apple likely financed the entire 5nm line (it's pretty much in line with their operational model and they did it in the past - although I'm writing with no evidence it took place in this specific occasion), so an argument could be made that such 5nm line wouldn't have even existed for a further year or 2 hadn't Apple basically paid for it.

I don't know precisely what's the net impact of all of the above, but I have reasonable suspicion it it pales compared to the miner-induced shortage (which enabled scalping - it would have hardly made sense otherwise).

And while I agree bitcoin hasn't used GPU mining in ages, you were replying to a graphics card related question, and the entire thread is about Ethereum PoW (GPU mined) being sunset with this merge.
Papers are great, but the fact that this is still a topic of discussion in the 21st century shows that there are no magic bullets, and putting too much stock in a techniques can feel as bad as the problem you are trying to solve if they don't work and you blame yourself.

Among any parenting peer group there will be some whose children fall asleep instantly with no intervention and some who spend hours doing bedtime and get woken up dozens of times a night, despite doing more or less the same thing.
"Not convicted" is not the gold standard of ethics, you know.

Best times to buy bitcoin was in 2011, 2015, 2019, 2022 ... roughly every 4 years. Exactly at the time HN thinks bitcoin is dead and burried.

And best times to sell (if you needed to sell) was in 2013, 2017, 2021 ... so I think the next time will be around 2025.

Every cycle swings less (in term of percentage change) so the next one will be just few hundred percent (troth to peak) and following ones even smaller till bitcoin will become yet another random walk asset like stocks.

No it's not. Our monetary systems depends on very few companies that restrict things that go way further than the law.

You cant use credit cards for thousands of things you never thought about, PayPal is banning even more, wire transfer isn't international and banks may still complicate things, not even talking about how long these can take internationally and how that doesn't work for realtime services.

There are dozens of things like perfect money, Payeer, Payoneer that could also be blamed because it is used for bad things. But reality is we need those to pay for things that visa doesn't want us to pay for.

Crypto is one solution to this obvious problem. It's easy to say it's all drug money and money laundering but only if you never happen to be in a position where you have to trust untrustworthy russian credit card gateways because it's nearly impossible to charge for a skin colored dildo.

In terms of ROI, the 3060 with 12GB of RAM seems to be the best one for cheap. The M40 has 24GB of RAM too but the core is super slow.

I'm personally holding out for prices on 3090s to crash. Also, NVIDIA is rumored to be launching their new GPU series in 2 weeks (there is a scheduled event already).

It's also a more likely type of crash to occur. Not many cases where one would square off the hit straight on, I'd imagine rather most cases at least one occupant is trying to avoid the crash by moving to the right.
not only is this provably wrong, but the entire point is also negated through the merge which this post is about.
I remember reading that IIII also made it easier to create the numbers in the first place. A watchmaker would mold VIIIIIX four times, the first would be cut as V, IIII, IX ; the second as VI, III, IX (the latter rotated to become XI) ; the third as VII, II, I, X ; the fourth as VIII, IIX (the latter rotated to become XII).
First - that's a big if. Only super bare and short, zero formatting plaintext, will fit inside NFT (as they exist today). I highly doubt people would want to work with such data, degrading their UX dramatically.

Second - do you realise that title contains private information which will be forever exposed on-chain?

Third - ok, even you admit that not everything will fit on-chain. Then who will store the rest of the data? Centralised entity? Which will have its internal security, bookkeeping, staff and so on?

Why do we need NFTs then, if all the work will be done by a centralised entity anyway?

Fourth - in the hypothetical case when we have titles and NFTs linked to them, there are several interesting questions - what happens when owner of the NFT forgets his private keys? What happen if the owner dies? What happens when the court judges declare that the ownership is incorrect? How are marriages handled, where today multiple people can own the same property?
ETC's block reward pays for a certain amount of mining to happen. If demand for ETC and its price stay about the same, then ETC's block reward won't change. Nearly all of the miners who quit mining ETH will find it not profitable to mine ETC. (If they all started mining ETC, then the reward would be split too many ways, it wouldn't be profitable for anyone, and people would exit until the reward was split less.)
And what's bullshit about that? Did you expect French politicians to be all-knowing robots who can never be wrong?

This sounds like a run-of-the-mill political debate that hopefully in the end was decided on the basis of an expert panel. (And no, of course, medical experts are also not infallible. I don't think we have investigated a disease and responded to it as fast as to this one ever before in the history of mankind, so there were bound to be made some wrong or misleading hypotheses.)
I first replied with the hot water comment, the reply to the GPU question wasn't my first comment here.
Why is it called "quiet quitting"? It is a very confusing term.

It is not quitting, you are still doing your job and you still get paid (unless you are fired). Is it different from regular work-to-rule (if you do that as a form of protest) or just doing your job (if you simply don't take unreasonable, out-of-contract requests)?

Another point is that crypto allows for easy transfer of money across borders. Say I want to hire a dev in Germany/Chile/Nigeria, I could go through the cumbersome and expensive process of wiring money, which incurs taxes on money being exchanged, broker fees in the form of a spread and so on, or I could use a cryptocurrency to just send the money and avoid all of that.

Crypto is also a very powerful tool for people in countries with spiraling inflation, such as Venezuela, Turkey and Argentina. Instead of being 100% exposed to local currency or USD, now you have options on how to perform transactions even inside your own country.

You are completely right. For example, the Tories in the UK now receive more donations from dead donors than living ones. How crazy is that?

Many of these structures, like trusts, take on a life of their own which is parasitic to the general public. Ergo they should not exist, or at least they should not be allowed to be political far into the future.
