SEC Chairman Says PoS Assets Could Be Securities
I missed this, thank you for your response! I'm entirely with you on this, and I wish I was someone who had the ability to offer generous book advances :)
The Mach-E will always be referred to by that term. I posit that any time you hear "Mustang" without a modifier for the next 10 years will refer to the sports car body, not the crossover.
And it's a fair point, but not exactly apples to oranges. It was "just" Zahi Hawass who made the formal request back in 2003. What if it was Sisi or Morsi or Mubarak who requested this at the nation state level. A request from a minister is not exactly equal to that of a head of state. I know this feels pedantic, but welcome to the world of policy, IR, and jurisprudence. The Kohinoor question is different from the Rosetta Stone as there is an additional Inter-Nation and Intra-National gray area that expands the complexity, which also expands the cost of litigation, which in turn is of questionable value when all the countries have higher priorities between each other, internally, and UK relations.

From an Egyptian viewpoint - a good example might be as follows:

What if an artifact was found in the Gaza Strip in 1955 and taken to the UK, who should the UK return it to? The Gaza Strip government, the West Bank government, the Israeli government, or the Egyptian government?

Edit: cannot reply below -

1. I'm pointing out a specific requirement in IR

2. The Gaza example above is an analogy for the Kohinoor example. I honestly don't care about the Egyptian case because I have no connection with that part of the world and I assume there are different considerations.
> “If you ask anybody what should happen to Jewish art stolen by the Nazis, everyone would say of course they’ve got to be given back to their owners,” Dalrymple says. “And yet we’ve come to not say the same thing about Indian loot taken hundreds of years earlier, also at the point of a gun. What is the moral distinction between stuff taken by force in colonial times?”

I'm not sure a state conquering another state and seizing the conquered artifacts is comparable to a state systematically imprisoning & murdering millions of civilians and seizing their valuable possessions.

After all, as others have pointed out, which state should it return to: Pakistan, Afghanistan or India? If the British "looted" it, should we also consider Afghanistan or Pakistan to have "looted" it first?
This has been very informative. My gratitude to everyone who has elaborated on how underwriting works with these providers.
We rely on USDC for our international business and depend on ETH.
Isn't this how competition works?

Big payoffs create massive incentives for people to create great products in the hope they will be bought out.

Adobe may have "destroyed" one great product, but think of the hundreds of new ones they have incentivized to be created.

People look at this all wrong and ignore the downstream effect.

This test of compositionality is utterly lame. (FtR: I am a cognitive scientist and AI researcher and my PhD was building computational models of how humans do compositionality - which neither I, nor anyone else can spell, and therefore I will hereinafter refer to simply as C! :-) Anyway, the kind of C that they are seeking is trivial compared to the breadth of the capabilities of human C. Here’s a better example:

You are engaged in a long conversation with someone, perhaps a friend of a friend who you met for lunch. At some point in the conversation they mention that they have a startup and are seeking someone like you. This revelation colors the whole conversation from that point onward. Indeed, each sentence colors the conversation from moment to moment.

But, you reasonably respond, we can’t test that sort of C, modern AIs don’t do even ELIZA-level dialog yet!

What’s the phrase??? “I rest my case?”

I actually had the same thought/idea just this morning.

At $dayjob I consult with various teams, some of them developing new web apps to deploy on the cloud. Some of these groups are scientists with minimal computer science experience, and no clue about cloud architecture, devops, or even basic software development best-practices.

In a mere hour of glancing at their code, I could provide them with valuable tips that cut days or even weeks off their development time, massively improved performance and security, etc...

There are many solo developers or small teams out there that could benefit from peer review of their code by someone much more experienced, but their org just doesn't have anyone available with that skill.

So "code review as a service" might be a pretty awesome thing. Grant the review SaaS access to your Git repo, approve access to some subset of the files, and it'll pick someone with the skills that match the contents. E.g.: for C# code it'll find an experienced C# dev.

The system could provide some safety nets such as automatically masking secrets. Similarly, it could perform a search & replace to hide product names or company names.

You mean decreasing?

From the article "In the hours following Ethereum long-awaited Merge on Thursday, over 40% of the network’s blocks were added by just two entities: Coinbase and Lido."

When it was PoW just 2 pools controlled over 45%. [1] (“Ethermine remained the largest ETH mining pool with 25.0% share, up 21.5% from September - followed by unknown miners (21.8%) and F2Pool (20.5%). The top 5 known pools now account for 65.4% of ETH blocks.”)

To be clear, Google Cloud always had a free $300 trial. The Spanner news is confusing at best, but most likely clickbait. If you really want Spanner in your default $300 free trial, you can just ask ops to enable / increase quota for it. The OP is a promotion advert disguised as a major service change and written as a PM. That goes to the core of the untrustworthy behavior that I've observed from GCloud reps over multiple contracts.

This is just composition again: If Imagen had compositionality, it would generate the four images you want from the prompt “A four panel webcomic: first, an astronaut riding a horse. Ok, now the same location where he arrives at a rocket. Now one where he dismounts. Now the horse runs away as the astronaut enters the rocket."
it still holds true today for the same top projects

inputmode does localization:

> Fractional numeric input keyboard containing the digits and decimal separator for the user's locale (typically . or ,)

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_att...

As for validation- you can get reasonably far with the `pattern` attribute, but many apps do validation with JavaScript anyway.

The benefit of inputmode is specifically that's it's less opinionated- it lets you give instruction to the system keyboard (which is a feature you can't otherwise provide yourself), but leaves it to you to handle everything else as you see fit.
Would be interesting to compare the two to Cloudflare’s new proxy [1] which they say will be open sourced soon. Their blog post suggests a significant boost in performance for connection reuse (not measured in this article) and resource utilization. On the other hand, Pingora seems much more specialized than Caddy or nginx.

Soooo.... a handbrake?

I'm confused about the novelty here - is it the new drift mode in the car, or is that the handbrake covers for an electronic system?
Yeah it is part of why I'm going to start with GDScript instead of jumping straight to dotnet 6 (which is what initially got me thinking about trying the new version).

I may still jump to c# but I wanna give GDScript a fair shake first. Plus the docs/tutorials tend to be more plentiful for GDScript.
I don't think I get your point. To me, any renewable power going into bitcoin mining, is contributing nothing except "securing the blockchain".

I don't even have a stake in this game, except living on the same planet as everyone else. And it's getting warmer. Any power spent on bitcoin is power not spent solving more practical problems elsewhere.
The Fate series which later spawned a massive franchise (multiple games, movies and books) started off as an eroge.
This isn't about protecting people's incomes, it's about bad customer service.

Just you saying that makes me say it's a bad idea because that framing in itself is emotionally charged which increases the odds that protest could turn into violence/physical intimidation. That's not terribly wise when there are alternative options for payment processors available.

Extreme clickbait article a la Vanity Fair or New York Post…not what I’d expect to see on HN.

@dang, are these submissions now acceptable?
No but you wrote the article, and you have a lot of people who could email hn@ycombinator.com to get the advert corrected. Again, this is more about repeatedly poor customer service than accuracy of this specific article.
Regarding Ford branding, I feel like they've done a similar thing with the Bronco Sport, which is basically a reskinned Escape as far as I can tell.

Feels like it dilutes the Bronco brand.
Oh man, are we swinging back the other way again? lol
But which state inherited Jammu Kashmir? That becomes the key question when the Kohinoor comes up, because Gulab Singh was the Wazir/PM of the Sikh Empire at the time, and Afghanistan doesn't recognize the Durrand Line, so arguably half of Afghanistan can be argued as still in play.
Your argument started well but veered off the tracks. The examples I would give of parallels between gambling and gaming are arcades, loot boxes, merchandiser machines, and free-to-play games with a virtual currency
Lots more where it is feasible. :) But sure, if you can’t use a big camera, or don’t want to, use your phone. It’s no skin off my back. Just wanted to point out that “phone” vs. “no camera at all because your big one is at home” is a false dichotomy.

This seems more expensive than a traditional cable-operated parking brake without any obvious benefit.

Typically, an electronic parking brake is advantageous because it requires less interior space - just a button instead of a big handle. Handbrake turns and drifting are not a priority for most drivers, so little utility is lost. Here, they've added the large handle back in.

I believe it's more along the lines of an open-source Apple TV or Roku box.
The British crown is the legal owner now, so bringing the law into it doesn't help you. It's not a legal matter it's a moral one, and OP made a very good point about why that's more difficult than you might think.

Most online games have some sort of digital assets they have to keep track of, and that's one of the trivial things to implement.
Yes, it might, but that should be settled by experiment rather than speculation.
Why don't they introduce a bill to stop deficit spending during inflation and make private companies bear the costs associated with space commercialization?

This is mere hand-wringing; Steve Jobs never cared to consider the aspects of our political system that leads to this, on the contrary, he positively exploited them for his own gain, e.g. patents and his app store tyranny. Steve Jobs is among the worst people to talk about this kind of neo-feudalism.

I've always loved Stripe's interactive documentation, wondered how they did it and hoped they'd open-source it. I totally missed the news that they did back in May.

Now, it seems that 99% of documentation tooling advertised is Markdown based; and e-v-e-r-y time I see this on HN I wonder why AsciiDoc[0] isn't more prevalent than Markdown.

AsciiDoc is older than Markdown and out of the box supports things that Markdown doesn't, which has led to a proliferation of Markdown flavors that remind me the web browser experience of the 2000s.

It is Stripe's documentation that led me a few years back to look into replicating their documentation, particularly the interactive part of it. While I wasn't able to find any tool out there that did this out the box, that's how I found about AsciiDoc in the first place, and then Antora.

This tool, Antora[1], is based on Asciidoc and allows you to create amazing documentation websites. A while back I experimented and wrote a PoC of a plugin for Antora that made my documentation interactive.

I also believe that AsciiDoc is what O'Reilly authors use to write books (edit: it is one of 3 languages they [2]use: AsciiDoc, HTMLBook, or DocBook XML)

I wish AsciiDoc was more commonly used.

It's ridiculous this is a street legal car.
For the record, a third of new cars are still sold with a manual handbrake.
It's not anti-competitive because there are plenty of other options available (and anyone can go and make their own if they're willing to invest the time).

Anti-competitive would assume that there's no other viable option or means for replacement.

FWIW, I think Adobe is a shit company but calling daddy government in to thump them for (presumably) taking away or breaking the favorite toy sets a terrible precedent. If anything, this is pro-competitive because it should light a fire under the ass of indie's to replace it (which is already underway by the looks of Penpot).
Do they at least make the left turn?
> Humans can learn to speak and recognize each other automatically, but AI systems have to be built specifically to do each task.

I think that is a very generous take on what we do "automatically". After all, we have millions of years of evolution to build out all the neural circuitry that helps us speech or vision -- it's not like you can throw a soup of genes on the ground and out comes intelligence. What is machine learning doing, if not selecting, out of many possible parametrizations, the ones that are suited to understand vision or speech?
I'm fine with getting the router human.
I realize this is pretty subjective, but there is not a single time that I have appreciated being in the fog on a bike ride or hike. It can be pretty to watch rolling in over the hills, but once I am in it, I always feel cold and miserable. I'd almost prefer that it just rain, because at least then I would have a valid excuse to stay home.
Cars don't have speed limiters because otherwise their drivers wouldn't be able to get up to 130 mph on LA streets: https://news.yahoo.com/nurse-reached-speeds-130mph-crash-141....

Won't share my opinion on crypto, but concretely: I believe IPFS only serves static contents (which is what CDNs did a couple of decades ago) and doesn't serve web traffic directly due to latency and throughput limitations without a "centralized" CDN, such a Cloudflare https://developers.cloudflare.com/web3/ipfs-gateway/referenc....
My bike doesn't have a speed limiter. Is it a motorcycle?
Another good reason to do a Live charge even for subscriptions (add a coupon code to make it like $1 if you really need to) but is to test the credit card expiring after the fact. I've done a lot of billing code an none of the sandboxes really let you test a card that works for N months, and then expires.

Honestly at this point I just went to the cell phone store and added a new line with a new sim card

Its like $5-20 dollars/mo, circumvents phone number based account barriers, circumvents voip and burner number discrimination

each iphone has 2 sim card slots, can give dates and strippers a phone number that doesn't have green bubbles when texted, amplifying my broad population legitimacy by an order of magnitude (its USA obviously it matters), while still keeping them segregated

I pay more for an uber, or a drink, or some stupid SaaS seat. just a social and internet freedom tax.

at this point just make it normal
Now ask it a question.
I have a hard time imagining how we get out of the gravity well of CLI programs handling their own parsing.

A tool I write has a use-case for understanding the syntax of at least ~common CLI tools well enough to pick out args that will be other executables (sudo cat, find blah -exec...), so I have been idly pondering whether there's a humane, declarative, descriptive grammar that can express nearly all CLI interfaces.

It's probably not worth the work for my case, but it might get to be more tractable if it was also an input for better completion, help, linting, etc. tools.

Ideally something that drives enough all-around value that projects would start up streaming the grammars (and maybe adopting an associated parser?)
It's ridiculous the same license in the US that allows you to drive a Corolla allows you to drive a race car on the street. With Biden fawning all over sports cars at the Detroit auto show I doubt anything with regards to car regulation will change in the US.
You can pair that with hefty fines. The US is in a good position to place them on international players too.

Want to work with USA companies? Great, pay your fines and you can.
As a life-long Mustang fan, that dash full of touch screens is really sad to see. We don't need drifting features, we need to go back to tactile controls. After all, no one should be fiddling with that dash in an off-road/racetrack scenario. While I was thinking of upgrading to a new Stang, but not if it's going to be this smartphone on wheels.
What does this get you over connecting up an old laptop to a TV screen and controlling it with a bluetooth keyboard?
It's a lame test, but I don't think most people were claiming that it proves general compositionality. What it does prove is that compositionality is possible with these models, and will likely improve rapidly, as everything else has that they've gotten a toehold into.

Ironically, the very fact that there is now a compositionality benchmark, as Gary points out, is all you really need to know that it's going to fall in the next decade, and probably sooner than that. I'm not aware of any major benchmark dataset upon which enormous progress has not been made in the last few years. And i'd be more than willing to bet anyone anything they'd like that a great deal of progress will be made on this one over the next few.
It's interesting how the HP OEM system didn't have SpeedShift working, which is absolutely critical to system responsiveness. I would like to see if OEMs have this sorted out on modern systems or if there's still brand-to-brand variation. Semi-related, but there can be a surprising amount of performance variation between motherboards that can be difficult to benchmark. DPC latency can vary between <50us to ~250us board-to-board: https://www.anandtech.com/show/16973/the-asrock-x570s-pg-rip...
I still got caught when I did that once. $1 worked just fine. The first real customer $249 charge failed. :-(

Test in production. Do real dollar value tests. If you can test with different cards with different security levels, try a Visa 3D Secure and a 2FA Amex charge. Personally I do them and then get reimbursed (or do them directly on a company credit card) rather than start out a production payment history with refunds, not sure if that matters but I figure if it does it's got to be a bad signal so I may as well avoid it.

Only on the soft keyboard, not with the value it self. So for users with hardware keyboards it will matter if they type 42.5 or 42,5 (i.e. the browser sees those as different values under different locales).

And this becomes an even bigger issue if you use pattern for validation (as you will have to sniff for the user’s locale conditionally adjust the pattern; good luck with that).

You also get this and validation error message localized with <input type=number>

EDIT: To clarify further. If I type 42,5 on my browser with an Icelandic locale, but your website uses inputmode=decimal, then my input will evaluate as NaN when you run `inputElement.valueAsNumber`. On the other hand you will get 42.5 if you properly set the type=number.
No, looks like it's just free for open-source projects
