I was keen to try out 100% pure plain text emails and ran into this problem too. The reading experience on mobile wasn't good, and that's increasingly where people are. Very spartan, minimal HTML resolves all the problems, but then you're back to HTML.
True, but I'd argue you should treat those probable boxing situations and definitely boxing and remove them.
> looked at possible candidates for Apple’s NBT (Next Big Thing), a product category that could launch an iPhone-like growth wave

Is this what drove Facebook, a slowing but otherwise perfectly healthy cash cow into the disaster that is Metaverse?

If Apple is going to do the same, my popcorn is ready.
You hit it on the head: this is a War on Privacy being presented as a war on money-laundering. The biggest money laundering schemes involve commercial banks and real estate (*ahem* TRUMP! *ahem*....) and not online cryptocurrency schemes. It's not like the North Koreans have no other way to mask the trail on what they steal, and I suspect those saying they are certain the North Koreans are bad guys here will insist they cannot divulge how they know this (under the aegis of National Security or some other excuse).
So say you, and yet my claim is self-evident, while yours needs hordes of robe&badge clad bureaucrats, and the promise of violence, to enforce.

The ACM Turing Award is for computer science, not building software. The ACM Software System award is more relevant here.

https://awards.acm.org/software-system/award-winners

For example, Richard Stallman (GNU) and Chris Lattner (LLVM) have both won the software system award, but it seems unlikely for them to be considered for a Turing award.
I think it'd be wonderful if any project with a social presence would consider mastodon. Even when it's just a bot that parrots what the twitter account says it is nice to not have to use twitter.
> HTML emails are mainly used for marketing - that is, emails you probably don't want to see in the first place. The few advantages they offer for end-users, such as links, inline images, and bold or italic text, aren't worth the trade-off.

Inline images are a huge, huge advantage, especially for internal business communications where an email may be the only real documentation of a problem and its solution. (Or at least the only documentation that can stand on its own -- the alternative is usually a PowerPoint deck with missing information that was only given in a one-time presentation.) Being able to add a graph or a table or a schematic or a photo is important for anyone who works with non-text data. I suspect some programmers may be unaware of how unusual it is to work entirely in text.
It definitely wasn't needed, but it goes against what I think makes SerenityOS so special.

That being that everything in SerenityOS and its several related projects is made from scratch.
Met brilliant minds no doubt. But between working on Indian Standard Time vs N. American time zones (for me) and the average Indian company exploiting their employees at multiple clients and with an impressive layer of account manager invincibility against individual accountabilities, I'm not feeling too threatened... yet.
Hey! A fellow optimist. There aren't many of us around as far as I can tell, except I think there a lot of closet optimists who don't speak up because the dominant paradigm is to shout "we're all going to die!" to wake people up so they will some action. This wears off when repeated too often, so I think it has the opposite effect. For those from other cultures who aren't very familiar with Western parables, there are two about this: "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" and "Chicken Little"

haa, that's a fun idea! setting aside efficiency, though, neural networks aren't usually Turing-complete, so arbitrary JS isn't going to work. but, I could imagine building a very strict, minimalist browser engine (think XHTML and Scheme rather than HTML and JS), and learning a transformation between the two.

and for perf to be attainable, rather than an NN you could learn a bunch of syntax transformation rules between the two.
Nope. People with options leave first. Who has options? The best people. It's called the deadsea effect - look it up.

It's the Canadian monarchy just as much as it's the English monarchy.
> England (and later the UK) has not had anything resembling a revolution since 1688

England, I'll give you. We can ignore Peterloo. But everyone always forgets Ireland successfully leaving the UK through a combination of armed struggle and political action. Not so much the stabilizing influence of the monarchy as the willingness to shell Dublin or fire randomly into protests in Northern Ireland. And quite a lot of the Twitter anti-monarchism at the moment has been from Kenyans.
Moderation is generally not required under US law.

For example, Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act provide safe harbor provisions: 'No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider'.

It doesn't matter if I run a site with 10 users or 100 million users: the law's provisions and protections are the same.

You are right that regulators generally strike when there is a critical mass. However, my 2c is that this is not backed by statue, and US Treasury does not have the right to sanction software code. They can certainly sanction users who use TC for money laundering, but code itself?

That's like sanctioning PGP or end-to-end encryption...

> "It does not represent any form of disrespect to the monarch. This is not an act of hostility, or any difference between Antigua and Barbuda and the monarchy," he added. "It is a final step to complete the circle of independence to become a truly sovereign nation."

Seems sensible to me.
It's a very bad analogy, because CEO's operate within a charter. CEOs isn't even the top position at all companies, typically it's the chairman of the board... that can literally tell the CEO to can it. In fact almost all CEOs can be vetoed by the board of directors and even at certain times - individual shareholders.

Your analogy is, again, rooted in lack of knowledge(aka ignorance) of corporate structures.

The CEO of my startup right now, where she literally owns 51%, still must go to the board for any impactful decision. And any C level exec can call the board.

LLCs are generally autocratic, but that isn't "any corporation".
Slashes have the problem of being notation used for the IPA. So if you dabble in linguistics like I do. That might be a problem.
I have found that there is very little difference between a senior, junior and even intern engineer. The responsabilities are the same, but a senior generally completes tasks faster and is paid more. The same JIRA tickets.

It is not until you get to a lead/architect level that the responsabilities change. The system building comes into focus.
Oh so these folks were impacted by casino laws? That's what the Treasury said?
Any UK monarchy news gets attention... Anything "may" happen, specially when it has been announced in the recent past. Like you say: there was always a plan for the ref, so this is non-news.

Also, why is this in HN frontpage. I get the curiosity of Republicanism v. Monarchy. This does NOT seem to be a good article to be having this discussion.
I’ll tell you how, because I had a client in this exact situation. The business just sees fluctuations in sales. They don’t see error rates. In traditional businesses SW engineering keeps the dynatrace logs close to the vest.

I convinced a dev to walk me through their dynatrace console. I dug in and took screenshots then gave them to h to the business. The business demanded access to dynatrace and then was able to correlate error rates with revenue fluctuations (down to the hour of the day, people are habitual). They came up with a cost factor and figured out how much they’re losing. This led to budget being allocated for a project to solve these problems. I bid on the work but was denied. The VP of IT at this point hated me.
Also, TC took zero fees, had immutable smart contracts with no privileged roles or admin keys, etc, is open source.

It is code.
Not necessarily. You could choose them by lot and limit their terms.

That would make for a fun night of TV.... Who will be Canada's next monarch? Find out tonight on CBC.
Now I understand what you were referring to.

I should attempt to convince you that negative messages ("STOP X") are not as effective for changing behaviour than actual helpful advice; for instance in personal training you are educated to always refer to the positive. IE; instead of saying "stop raising your heels" you would say, "do you see your feet move? We should try to keep them flat"- a subtle but important difference.

W.R.T. comments like yours, I would advise you to instead focusing on the "don't improve your appearance, it is superficial" to instead focus on other things that men can do to meaningfully improve themselves.

The majority of Feminists and the majority of Misogynists alike, agree (unfortunately) that some features of men are desirable and those typically correspond to conventional attractiveness and wealth.

> Stop listening to Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, etc. They told you which KPIs will get you women. They won't.

It's not really Joe Rogan or Jordan Peterson saying that though, it's society. IIRC Jordan Petersons whole schtick was suggesting that self-improvement is necessary and that you should start small (like cleaning your room); then he goes off the rails talking about equality and equity going too far or something- but the core of the beginning is good. I haven't ever watched Joe Rogan; Andrew Tate is as much as Misandrist as a Misogynist[0]

If you want to convince me otherwise I would advise (again) to inform us of what Men should actually work on to improve themselves in the eyes of Women.

Why would you ask this question and not bump into God?

That concept of a living inside a computer simulation, asking if we can know the unknowable, even bumping into Marduk... is answerable by the divine.

Though the parable about the ten ox was kind of cool.

Hackernews loves to revisit the zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance in many different forms, yet the answer is always the same. The 'No thing' in the ten ox parable, in zen and the art, in this articles pondering about what is unknowable, is god...

The reality is Treasury does not have the political capital to outlaw Ethereum. It's a $200 billion asset that one in ten Americans and many of the largest pensions, hedge funds, and Biden's largest donors are invested in.
Commute time is just one of many very large inefficiencies in modern work life. I spend much more time each day in useless meetings, filling out useless forms, digging through HR docs pages trying to find convoluted policies so I can get reimbursed for some obvious work-related expense.

The challenge to getting more remote is that commuting is NOT the most wasteful aspect of most companies (even if companies bore the full cost of it).
True, but soooo minor. The element has no impact on the document outline, and many sites use it decoratively today.

If we're really being pedantic, all uses of <hr> elements on that page are contrary to the spec's desires.

> The hr element represents a paragraph-level thematic break, e.g. a scene change in a story

> There is no need for an hr element between the sections themselves, since the `section` elements and the `h1` elements imply thematic changes themselves

If it isn't clear, I find it a bit silly :)
The imaginary unit shows up in both quantum mechanics and EE as a way to embed i*i = -1 in the equations. Any differential equation that involves it can be written without it by separating real and imaginary parts into different variables. Furthermore, if you let "one" be represented by the 2x2 identity matrix, the matrix [[0,1],[-1,0]] can act like i in every respect, because that matrix squares to -1 times the identity. In fact, even -i can stand in for i. The "nouns" of math might be real, but whether they are is a metaphysical question; all we observe in science are what you might call the verbs of math.

FWIW, the "crossing out the imaginary part" works like this: if the system of equations is linear and doesn't have complex coefficients, every solution has a counterpart solution that is its complex conjugate, and you can add the conjugate (remember, it's linear) to get another, real-valued, solution. You can do that with time-invariant (definite-energy) solutions to the Schrodinger equation as well, because the energy eigenvalue equation doesn't have complex coefficients.
That sounds both familiar and weird, like some strange lazy collection that performs an I/O operation to hydrate every time it creates iterator.

Whatever it is, it's certainly not something that would justify a modification of standard API to cover this use case.
"HTML emails are mainly used for marketing - that is, emails you probably don't want to see in the first place."

Stops reading.
I read a ton of KJ Parker books last year, they were all really good. His most popular series is the one that starts with Sixteen Ways to Defend a Walled City. The premise is that a city is under siege by an army that has made it clear they're not going to spare anybody if they win. The protagonist is the highest-ranking surviving officer in the city, a lowly military engineer, who is suddenly in charge. Think The Martian meets The Siege of Gondor (or Constantinople). It's fantasy, but there's no magic.
Just like on most low end embedded systems. Bare metal rules there.
In Ireland we have an elected President whose duties are largely ceremonial (laying wreaths, giving speeches, meeting dignitaries incl newly appointed diplomats etc) but include one v important constitutional duty: to sign legislation into law. It has happened that a President refused to sign without first referring controversial legislation to the Supreme Court.

In the UK the Crown has nominally comparable authority but is in fact nothing but a glove puppet, or at least that has been the case to date. See e.g., the Queen's acquiescence to the illegal prorogation of parliament. She did was she was told to do in her own name. Her son may not be so accommodating and this may lead to a constitutional crisis.

Some check on an overweening executive is always good.

Don't make any modifications to the land until you are ready to build. I don't know what the full definition of "unimproved lot" would be, but clearing land for construction site, adding roads, etc definitely sound to me as improvements. Those improvements will have a not friendly affect on your taxes. If your plot is big enough, add the minimum number of head of some sort of animal to possibly qualify for ag exemptions.

Lots of games to be played that you might be unaware of to keep from slowing the growth of that nest egg.
> You're confusing a particular (naive, original) implementation of cryptocurrency with the general concept of cryptocurrency.

If that is the case they why does the floor value of bitcoin track to the cost of the energy it takes to mint? Value above the floor is 100% speculative as it is value assigned by investors who buy into it.

> You seem like a reasonable person and if you take the time to understand what is taking place then you would see this as the transitional period that it is, understand the problems being solved, and know how to spot the bullshit from the real.

I would rather give up all technology, sell all my worldly possessions and donate it to charity, and then become a luddite and move to an Amish community before I live in a world dominated by the current iterations of digital currency.
And are you not upset because of psychopathic tendencies? You certainly seem to be disdainful when someone expresses empathy. I’m upset about climate change because it personally affects me, but I’m also upset about armed agents of the state murdering Black citizens without repercussion. I’m white. Do you find my response to be “overly-emotional”?
You're almost getting it. We still allow hot dog stands to exists, even though you could launder money via them. Instead, we let police investigate cases where money laundering is happening, and if it happens to be via one hot dog stand, take down that specific one. Rather than banning hot dog stands in general.

Same goes for Tornado Cash. It was not designed for money laundering, although you could use it for that. If the US government finds cases of money laundering happening, take down the entities doing the money laundering instead of attacking a tool.

If you think Tornado Cash was designed for money laundering, please point us to the documents where this is mentioned. I've personally followed the development of the project, but never saw any mentions of money laundering at all, anywhere.
> buying up the chips at a premium (i.e. above the washing machine cost).

Industries often act illogically in cases like this. You see it with many types of goods ordered a long time in advance.

If there is a sudden shortage, the people who have ordered their raw materials a long time in advance (who have effectively purchased a future for that commodity) think they made a good move and see it as a business advantage that they can continue production while their competitors who failed to plan cannot.

However, they often fail to see that it is an even better business move to still shut down production and sell those raw materials onwards to someone else who will pay handsomely for them.

Basically, the futures market should never determine if a factory is operating or not. If it does, then someone has made an irrational decision.
The sanctioned entity here is a piece of code that uses zk-SNARK cryptography, in a permissionless and immutable way. There are no admin keys, there is no ownership, it is code.

It's not an organization. This is more like the FBI banning GPG because terrorists use it.

FTA:

> They contend that the Treasury Department lacks the authority to restrict access to a software program.

This is the point. No one would have batted an eye if OFAC sanctioned addresses that used TC to launder money. Nobody would have batted an eye if the FBI prosecuted criminals for using GPG to plot a crime.

But what happened here is akin to the FBI, using powers that it hasn't been granted in law, to ban GPG.

I've been surprised in general at prices for used flatware. We have a set that we really like; it originally wasn't expensive relatively speaking, but we love the size and style. It's very simple and functional, and has lasted really well. Over time, we started worrying about losing pieces, so decided to augment what we had by buying whatever we could when we found it.

In the process I learned that most of what we were looking at was not actually cheaper than a brand new set, per item. Many of the complete sets were still not that inexpensive.

It seems like there's some combination of people doing what we were doing, filling out place settings and whatnot. Also, good flatware doesn't really degrade, and over time it becomes a sort of collector's item.

> Not having a President is reason #1 to keep a constitutional monarch.

There are lots of republics in which the president has only a ceremonial role. Germany and Italy, for example. There are absolute monarchs as well. The title does not indicate the effective power of the role.

> A prime minister is always aware of the limits of the role.

So is the president, if you have an appropriate constitution. This is the key, not the fancy title you give to your head of state.

A monarchy has the downside that who gets to be the monarch is fundamentally undemocratic.
