Even PHI is monetized, btw. You know those HIPAA forms you sign? They tend to authorize sharing of your info with insurers and their partners, and often the sponsors of the plan if it is through an employer indirectly through metrics and reporting. If enough attention is paid, and data correlated carefully enough, one can deanonymize on that alone if one cared to.

Someone surely need to maintain these machines, but the application doesn’t have to.

The point is that these networks can be run by anyone, without the org(uniswap labs/EF) or dapps needing infra of their own if they redesigned to rely on zkp, oracles or chain data. And as long that number of random validates/miners doesn’t stoop too low - it means there exists enough incentives for these random players to continue doing so.

I think you've lost sight of the initial concern that was raised. There's still a common-mode failure of loss of control power.

Control power is different from actuation power, the latter of which is what you're addressing. And it's not "gross damage" because it's a common-mode failure, so you can't just ignore it like that.
Not everything! While it has rail lines, and abandoned rail lines, and surface light rail (streetcar/tram/trolley) lines, it is missing abandoned streetcar/trolley lines. (They existed in a lot of North American cities until the 40s-50s ish)

Despite that minor absence, the map you linked is clearly superior
Not really. You can't 'fix' an error that you've reported to the cops. That's kind of on a criminal record at that point. This man could have been suspended by the government, and he would have had to clarify the situation to a judge. Granted, the judge would be infinitely more receptive to arguments than Google, but it shouldn't have to come to that.
Perfect rebuttal, imo. Everyone has something to hide. It doesn’t mean you’re actively committing crimes… those who say they don’t care the NSA are reading everything they write lack imagination, imo.
Depends on the language.

Python has been stuff like Pi hats with sensors, or using Pandas to analyze VAERS or Kaggle data. I assume this is similar for other scripting or backend languages/projects.

UI could be something like using Angular to build a simple site, or Android to build a simple app.

Basically find something that's simple and functionally similar to what you think you want to achieve with the language. At least for me, I want to learn a language to use it on a project, not just learn it for the sake of learning it.
> NO, its not my money. Its the banks money.

It’s not even the bank’s money but the bank’s debt to you. When you give a bank money you are accepting an IOU with pages of conditions because they lend out most of it and do not keep enough money to pay everyone back. Banks don’t want withdrawals because that limits their ability to lend and make profits off the interest etc plus capital control laws are common to prevent bank runs etc, so they erect barriers to withdrawal and can prevent it entirely. When you’re prevented from withdrawing your money that is a sign the loan you gave the bank went bad.
That's very helpful, close to what I was envisioning. Thank you.

Having no power would be hard as the brake system can easily generate power to operate itself if the vehicle is moving (and if its not moving that is what the parking brake is for). This is more of a scenario that occurs when there is a catastrophic failure in the braking system, such as the motor control electronics getting damaged.
Six Lyrics That Show Why ‘Hamilton’ Is Tough to Translate
The B-52 design proposal was done in a hotel room over one weekend, the actual engineering took at least 3 years, including "670 days in the wind tunnel". That is not to say the weekend hotel proposal was not an impressive accomplishment in itself, it was. But there's a difference between laying out a software architecture and writing code.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_B-52_Stratofortress#Des...

> On Thursday, 21 October 1948, Boeing engineers George S. Schairer, Art Carlsen, and Vaughn Blumenthal presented the design of a four-engine turboprop bomber to the chief of bomber development, Colonel Pete Warden. Warden was disappointed by the projected aircraft and asked if the Boeing team could come up with a proposal for a four-engine turbojet bomber [...] By late Friday night, they had laid out what was essentially a new airplane.

> [...] On Monday, Schairer presented Colonel Warden with a neatly bound 33-page proposal and a 14-inch (36 cm) scale model. The aircraft was projected to exceed all design specifications.

> [...] During ground testing on 29 November 1951, the XB-52's pneumatic system failed during a full-pressure test; the resulting explosion severely damaged the trailing edge of the wing, necessitating considerable repairs. [...] The XB-52 followed on 2 October 1952. The thorough development, including 670 days in the wind tunnel and 130 days of aerodynamic and aeroelastic testing, paid off with smooth flight testing. Encouraged, the USAF increased its order to 282 B-52s.
That's frankly a fascinating response.

I have certs because my boss asked me to get them, as they play a part in his business' ability to obtain partner status with the various cloud vendors.

It is confusing to me that this chain of events would lead you to dismiss me out of hand, or make value judgements about what type of person I am.
Yes, I started out by using genrule before going down the custom rule path. I was able to properly trigger bazel to generate the interface bindings but then lost the thread when trying to properly configure the output files to act as proper dependencies to other code (ie. generate C++ headers and libraries that could then be properly listed as dependencies by client code.)

I think part of the issue was that the generated code from the 3rd party tool did not align with the Bazel expectations about code layout (ie. paths relative to WORKSPACE). Likely solvable but not in the amount of time I had available to dedicate to the effort.
I knew it wasn’t. I’ve seen the engineering plat drawings.

Surely was not overnight but a cumulative effort of many engineers of many disciplines over many decades.

Most notably the airframe framework which makes its longevity more than possible.

Will not stoop to a simplistic clickbait.
>1. You can store cash, if you choose to. Way way way easier than Crypto.

No.

1. Cash is bulky and if you need to store a non-trivial amount it quickly gets expensive (eg. installing safes). Crypto can be stored on a piece of paper, or in your head.

2. cash is treated unfavorably in various legal systems, from civil forfeiture (aka carrying a suspiciously large amount of cash) to outright bans on cash transactions over a certain size

3. crypto can be stored redundantly (ie. 2 of 3 multisig), cash can not.

>2. Can average citizen safely and reliably store crypto on their own anywhere nearly as easily and safely as cash?

If we compare like for like (ie. stuffing it under your mattress doesn't count), then I find the effort to train someone to use a 2 of 3 multisig software to be comparable to installing some sort of floor bolted safe.
This seems like a pretty comprehensive strategy to take wasm security and correctness seriously. It pretty much covers everything I would want to see if I were relying on this system, including auditing, fuzzing, formal correctness, spectre, and even a clear-eyed organizational stance toward reported security vulnerabilities.

The post mentions using `cargo vet` to organize audits of third party crates, discussed here a few months ago [0]. I'm more familiar with cargo-crev which does something similar, how do these auditing tools compare? The audit format [1] seems somewhat reasonable, but it doesn't include the review date and there's no mechanism to validate the authenticity of the auditors.

I try to write a guest book.

This way I can see how to input data, display it and how I can operate with the database.

It's simple.

Sadly for Rust and MongoDB I tried that 5 times and never got to the point that it compiles. It just wasn't intuitive and the error messages didn't make sense.
For Rust also I went through the tutorial, because I really wanted to like it and switch to it, but compared to Go it was just too complicated. I didn't understand the game, boxes ownership move unpack... it all didn't make sense . I digress but yeah, a guestbook is usually my 1st application.

The amount of magic flags needed to get JavaFX working is ridiculous. I'm working on a Kotlin application with a JavaFX UI and I have to rely on Gradle to get it all working. Even then, when I wanted to get some wodgets from controlsfx working I had to add 14 new commandline options (various --add-opens options), none of which was properly documented anyhere.
I would say the skills are largely transferrable as the product offerings are analogous in many cases.
Just to expand on this as I think this is a fairly common misconception about how tax brackets work:

Say you have two tax brackets:

$0 - $100: 10%

$101 - $200: 15%

If you make $150, the entire $150 is not taxed at 15%. The first $100 is taxed at 10%, and the remaining $50 is taxed at 15%.

This is why being in a higher tax bracket is never (edit: usually not) a bad thing - you can't net less than you would have in the lower bracket.

Yeah indeed, I was the one to bring feature branches up - my original comment said that learning Git better won't help you with feature branches in case such as ours, and that what's actually needed is a workflow change - as a reply to a comment claiming that any issues could be solved by just learning the tool better, as if there was a magic command argument that'd resolve the merge conflicts resulting from this workflow, or something.

In our case we stopped using the `git branch` and `git checkout` commands whereas previously it was an integral part of our workflow, hence "not branching out" - again, sorry for not saying explicitly in that one comment that of course we worked with the local copy of the main branch which is a branch too, since that's how Git works I thought that's a given, this is a professional forum and I didn't think I need to call out everything so explicitly as if I was talking to a junior dev.

I never said that branches are hard to use nor that we didn't use them - it's only your strawman where you (since I explained what I meant so many times, it must be) intentionally misinterpret what I said about feature branches. You even sent a link to Git docs when I asked you about workflow strategy and in reply to articles talking about workflow... :-D

Feature branches are a very common workflow at many companies big and small, one could reasonably say it's the standard, practically every single team where I worked has done it this way and any change to this workflow was much discussed and temporary - and I've seen that happen only 2 times ever in my 12 years of SWE consulting career. I'm really surprised you are acting as if this was the first time you heard the term.

And - we got it already, you're a Git ninja. You can stop trying to show us your superiority now. The discussion would be much more pleasant - and I'm not saying this because you know more about Git than me, I'd be happy to learn. ;-)
Yes it's volatile, but in many countries around the world, inflation is worse. (Including Lebanon.)
This is spot on. Although I disagree with the removal of AML/KYC regulation, this is indeed the reason why it's so complicated. HSBC was fined heavily and only came out of judiciaral control recently because they didn't care enough about money laundering. All the banks are scared to shit to be pinned by the regulator now, so that's what you get.

When I'm talking about "lookalike domains", I mean domain names that look exactly the same. It is simply not possible with 7-bit ASCII.

A self-signed certificate can also be used to make sure that the connection is private. Sometimes the private key may have leaked and then the certificate can be "trusted" without being private - though it's easier to just register a lookalike domain and a certificate for it than have a leaked private key.

As to why, Patreon was ALSO the organization most apt to sniff the size of that market. Those were their current customers! If OnlyFans managed to glimpse to potential revenue and build their platform, Patreon would have been aware.

They had the platform, they had a known brand, they had relations with some of the clients, they knew how many people they were kicking out. This was such a huge advantage over anybody else.
But this time it's opt-in, so that does change things, right?

Not to mention that you need to have the ability to switch anyway in case there is some other problem with VMWare. Anytime you have a single supplier that you depend on you should have some mitigation plan ready to go should that supplier fail you. The mitigation plan may be a lot more expensive than the supplier you are using, the goal isn't to use them it is just to ensure you have an option.

For a rebuttal to the critiques of excess found here, I recommend Mandeville's The Fable of the Bees (which Keynes references in the General Theory).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fable_of_the_Bees

I do think it's worth contextualizing such debates about vice and virtue in the politics of the time. Court-favorites like the Duke of Marlborough (whom Mandeville defends here) using war to enrich themselves. Naturally this irked wealthy gentry who loathed the associated taxes and had rival commercial interests.
While I agree with that, I would welcome a recommendation for a better tool.
I think it can only help. Employability aside, you might even enjoy doing them! The AWS certs aren't to be sniffed at, even if your experience after completing it is only theoretical (better than nothing).
This is from the "Software Engineering at Google" book, https://abseil.io/resources/swe-book

Goals-Signals-Metrics seems like a nice way to organize thinking about performance. Predictive signals or metrics are the grail - lagging signals or metrics don't tell us much about what to do to improve.

Maybe it is interesting to compare metrics in the context of engineering centered processes (this) vs product development or product investment processes. The latter is more business focussed, and looks not our efficacy (SWE) but our business impact relative to business expenditure. Maybe that's a question of whether Product Management is sitting in Engineering or not. Are we getting things done well (SWE) or are we building the right things (product). The product POV never not has an impact on dev quality of life.
My strategy is:

- buy a textbook with exercises (usually extra thin book)

- buy flashcards with basic vocabulary

- buy a more than decent grammar reference for the language

- Randomly flip between doing exercises and flashcards and checking the grammar book when something comes up.

- Subscribe to news in that language and browse them on my ipad.

Still, before covid I used to take classes (of Polish, in German) at the Volkshochschule (community college). IMO in person classes give some good motivation to do the exercises and not want to be ridiculed.
There are efforts to give reviewers credit for their work, like Publons.
The kicker is that the entertainment per dollar figure is only part of the story. The inherent quality and worth of some games make them memorable experiences that aren't found in other mediums, and the market is mature enough that quality games abound even taking into account Sturgeon's law.

There is a dark side however, in that gamers can sometimes completely lose interest in the act of gaming in and of itself. This is a complex range of emotions related to the sensation of aging and the restrictions that come with responsibilities. But when it comes, it can alter the value of what people get from games to devastating effect.

I usually pick one of the ideas on my low-stakes "side quest" list that I maintain. Something that I won't mind if it never gets finished, or if I have to trash it and start over because of what I learned while building it the first time, now that I know the language better. I'm currently working on a RISC-V cycle-level simulator in Rust.

While I'm picking up Rust, I really like the "rustlings" project that lets you exercise various parts of the language locally, instead of in a browser, so I can use the tools that I like. https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings

There's a difference between harming US (international) tech firms for the sake of harming the US, and harming antitrust-law-violating, privacy-violating, human-rights-violating tech firms that happen to originate in the US.

That might look like a personal vendetta against Google, but it's not personal at all. It's much like the way the head of the US FTC has a bone to pick with Amazon, not because she has anything personal with Amazon, but because she's charged with protecting consumers and believes Amazon to be harming them.

Just because they're able to get away with it here due to the corruption in American campaign finance doesn't mean they can get away with it everywhere.
Wikipedia says:
