How do we know you're not 'controlled opposition'? If you want to make the argument that the people in question are establishment figures, then doesn't the same argument fly for you as well? How do we know you're not some agent of some other establishment pushing their own agenda other than 'trust me I'm a real person'?

This line of debate leads nowhere other than a dead end where each side is convinced that the other is a spy. And considering your post history, I don't know if there's a reason to lend you much credence at all.

> There's no such process for cryptocurrencies. It wouldn't make any sense for someone to acquire every instance of a coin. Coins don't pay dividends. They don't represent any kind of underlying assets. It's just weird to pretend that they have a market cap in the same sense as stocks.

Feel free to come back to these comments in 10-20 years, but one of the moonshot goals is to make blockchain networks base layers for all financial processes in the world and implement all the things you want from any asset class as applications on top of a globally distributed virtual computer.

Additionally, the same arguments can be made of any fiat currency. The US dollar doesn't represent anything except >faith in a system<. The relative value of any blockchain is the >faith in it as a system<.

> Not 100% of users will accept the new software so after this event called "The Merge" there will be 2 competing Ethereum networks (actually 3 because there's already "ethereum classic" from the last time Ethereum forked).

It's not actually that simple. After the merge, non-upgraded PoW nodes will automatically wind down and self-destruct according to the built-in difficulty bomb curve which is part of PoW.

For PoW Ethereum to continue running in a useful way to whoever wants to use it, a majority of PoW users would need to upgrade to a new PoW fork that changes the difficulty bomb curve. They have to coordinate and agree that fork, as different bomb curves are incompatible.

That would require a majority of PoW users to perform a coordinated softare upgrade, agreed with each other. There's no default PoW Ethereum that can keep working for a long time if people don't deliberately agree on and roll out a new fork.

> Bitcoin is very different.

Bitcoin has a difficulty bomb too (when coin issuing stops), so Bitcoin may eventually self-destruct too, if nobody steps up to coordinate a new fork of Bitcoin and a majority of users accept the new fork.
Cool, did not know that. Apparently the idea was less novel than I thought.
Not exactly - there's enough data that each infection accumulates damage. This is not the flu and you're not back to where you were before the COVID-19 episode.
I've updated the descriptions to make that more clear. thanks for the feedback!
I had a stroke just shy of a month ago. 38yo male, no risk factors, healthy BMI, 12+ hours of intense exercise per week. In the neurology ward of the hospital I was told they'd seen a massive uptick in otherwise-healthy adults experiencing strokes over the past few years.

My last COVID infection was about 11 months ago, that I know of.

All this is to say that I'm not surprised by your comment at all. We'll never really know if my stroke specifically was caused by COVID, but I think it's becoming more and more that there are a whole host of ongoing health concerns directly related to it.

I am going to guess you never took a minute to check the development a human brain undergoes.
It takes month until the human brain can form basic memories. Until then only things that they can actually see, exist.
Understanding that consequences exist take another couple of month. Using them to their advantage consciously is a mental stunt infants can for sure not do.
Seeing it as a correlation in these things is highly likely your human brain trying to rationalize the often irrational behavior of infants.

Similar thing was happening across all Volkswagen Group (VW, Audi, Škoda, Porsche) models some time ago. They had a bug in their enrollment code and it was possible to list all cars and then assign any (capable) car to your mobile app. It's fixed now but a lot of cars were stolen because of it - I personally know a guy who stole over 100 vehicles this way (his prison sentence has already ended), and I confirmed this story with a friend who works on 3rd line tech support for Škoda.

>The Chouinards then donated the other 98 percent of Patagonia, its common shares, to a newly established nonprofit organization called the Holdfast Collective, which will now be the recipient of all the company’s profits and use the funds to combat climate change. Because the Holdfast Collective is a 501(c)(4), which allows it to make unlimited political contributions, the family received no tax benefit for its donation.

>That differs from the choice made by Barre Seid, a Republican donor who recently gave 100 percent of his electronics manufacturing company to a nonprofit organization shortly before
the company was sold, reaping an enormous personal tax windfall and making a $1.6 billion gift to fund conservative fights over abortion rights, climate change and more.[1]

>Here is how it works: Marble Freedom Trust is registered under a section of the tax code — 501(c)4 — for organizations that focus primarily on what the Internal Revenue Service calls “social welfare” and as a result are exempt from paying taxes. Such groups are allowed to engage in political advocacy, but their supporters are not entitled to deduct donations from their income taxes. Supporters can, however, donate assets that a nonprofit can sell and avoid capital gains taxes on the sale.[2]

So when pro-environment people donate 98% of their money to a 501(c)(4) they get "no tax benefit", but when a conservative person donates 100% of his money to a 501(c)4 he gets "an enormous personal tax windfall"? That doesn't make sense. It seems to me as if NYT likes to portray liberally-leaning people as selfless and conservatives as greedy, even when they do essentially the same thing.

Buying Eth will be the same as before. What you could say, is staking Eth is what makes it an interest-bearing asset, not just buying Eth.
Just curious - if you say so many other people are forming their opinion based on emotion rather than facts / truth and don't realize that - why do you think you are immune to the same phenomena? I don't mean it as an insult, I probably also have a few beliefs like that, with no way to realize which ones. Certainly feels good to believe I am protected from a deadly disease and feels bad to wonder about side effects. So why listen to any critique of COVID-19 vaccines after I already got my shots?
Interesting how apart from US, Europe, India, China (east), and Japan, the rest of the world is mostly devoid of railways.
I've had a colicky baby who cried not because he wanted to nurse (he would stop wanting to nurse after a certain point) and not because he was hungry. There are a certain percentage of babies with colic, we don't know why they cry but they cry and carrying them, nursing them, feeding them breastmilk through a bottle doesn't really help.

Then for our son, it grew less and by the time he was 3 months old, he was a very happy baby.

Information and knowledge on the effectiveness and side effects of the vaccines has changed in a rather extreme fashion since the earlier phase of the pandemic.

Having a 6 year old refuse to sleep without a parent in bed because of "attachment parenting" tends to make one wonder if there's not some merit to having gone through some pain in the early stages

based on my experience i'd very much doubt that this sleep problem comes because of attachment parenting. there must have been some other experience that causes the child to have trouble sleeping alone.

the point of attachment parenting is exactly to help the children be more confident, so they need less attachment later. if that doesn't work then there must have been some other influence. elsewhere you mention a highly anxious mother. i don't know, i thought it would have to be something worse like divorce or death of a family member. but it's not surprising that the kids pick up the anxiousness of their mother.

but that doesn't mean attachment parenting is the wrong approach. it only means that it makes it more challenging, and while you could try letting kids cry it out, i believe that would only lead to a worse outcome. because while it works to let the kids sleep by themselves, it influences the relationship between the parents and the children.

(edited for clarification)
I don't understand this comment in relation to your previous one at all, then.

You said:

Redis can easily chew 200k GET RPS on an average low-core count VM, even if an application does 10 Redis queries per request in average it would still take 20k requests to saturate it... which is an HUGE amount if we think that this would require easily between 50 and 100 machines beefy machines!

Which says you estimate 50-100 machines to saturate one "low-core count VM" Redis. But now you say you meant 50-100 machines for Redis servers?

We run about 20 machines, perhaps the equivalent of 10 "beefy machines", to handle a ~50k/sec request load (with substantially higher peaks). We have less than 100 servers total, most of which are doing asynchronous data processing and not directly in the request pipeline. Our data storage architecture is not really comparable to redis in terms of request load as it's insert/upsert-dominated but the total size is 5-10TB.
I do have a kid and I'm pretty sure children aren't manipulative at all at 3-4 months old. They just operate on immediate needs and instinct. Manipulative behavior starts at around 1 year old, beliefs of small infants being manipulative are typically just projection (you feel angry because your baby wakes you up every 2 hours, so you think it's manipulating you, and that makes you feel better about being so angry).

Of course they are good at getting attention, but that's because they need attention. That's why nature gave them the ability to cry surprisingly loud from the moment they're born.
It's nowhere beyond, it's exactly privacy. My country still (since the 90s) has numbered shares - meaning not tied to a person. The fight is not over yet, even though the EU is really trying hard to destroy all privacy here. And it's not really that simple to abuse - someone has to show up with the shares in hand to do that.
I think it’s short for “dynamic” given the vintage of the names, like ”ola” was popular in the early decades of the 20th century, hence “Shinola” shoeshine or “Motorola” car radios.

Yes, there is more to it. "Soundness" is a specific term in computer science regarding a program being unable to end up in a invalid state. Usually used in type systems to describe a type system that makes your program unable to be "wrong".

themselves and their children vaccinated, claimed the CDC was premature
in advising teens to get a COVID booster shot on January 5, with Gandhi
saying, 'I am not giving my 12 and 14-year-old boys boosters.'

Or as she wrote for the SF Chronicle:

There should be no argument over whether vaccinating children against
COVID is necessary; instead, our focus should be on the best way to do it.

> "At best I've found chip reading to work about 60% of the time ... Making it totally useless for the (thankfully small) number of merchants whose POS systems won't let you fall back to mag-stripe"

Here in the UK, many (most?) new payment terminals don't have mag-stripe readers at all. And I expect banks will start issuing new cards without a magnetic strip in the near future, if they haven't done so already.

I agree that chip & pin isn't ideal, not just because of reliability issues but also because of the security risk of PIN disclosure. But thankfully contactless (incl. Apple Pay/Android Pay) has already replaced it for 99% of daily transactions.

But if your card's chip is broken, can't you just get your bank to send out a new one?
that discourse is already reflected in the consensus on who to vaccinate which is presented to you on that site as far as Denmark goes. Doctors don't just wing it, they go by those very same research results.

Doctors may disagree about individual cases of disease, they don't disagree at all about who to vaccinate, they follow guidelines.

Oh I'm sure I'm wrong and there are good reasons... but it's just hard to quantify them exactly.

The speed/"B52 is actually structurally designed to take enemy fire" points someone mentioned were immensely informative.

I'd never, ever thought of those. But it makes sense. The B52 carries a lot of bombs and has the structural design and other attributes for being in a combat zone.

Designing a NEW B52 is prohibitive because in reality, in a war with Russia/China, the B52 is non-viable against modern AA.

But for carpet bombing Afghanistan, the B52 is perfect.

It was co-founded by Henry Singleton.

After the Academy, Singleton elected to study electrical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and graduated in 1940, receiving both bachelor's (Sc.B.) and master's (Sc.M.) degrees in this field.
