It doesn't actually require extra physical printed money? Have you heard of "petrodollar recycling?"

The money can come from a shift in the debt/savings profile, in the reallocation of business investment, or a shift in the demand for speculative assets. It's not really a coincidence that as the fuel price has gone up the gold price has gone down not up: https://goldprice.org/gold-price-history.html

There's a big spike around 2020 for inflation fears, but the gold price doesn't track the price level numbers in ways that hard money fans want it to.

We all rely on the internet as a reference library. In those cases when you do not have access to the internet, it's pretty difficult to access the information you need.

Let me show you my implementation of the Free and Open Source project Kiwix.

This +100. Having Security Officers on buses costs an incredible amount of money. Over time, just one semi-regular "problem passenger" can drive away hundreds of regular transit users.

Video/audio certainly can be done wrong, and won't magically fix the problem - but put yourself in the shoes of a transit system manager who's got both a tight budget and a problem passenger problem. You gotta DO SOMETHING to fix this! Full video & audio sure feel like they'd help get the police to do something, or a judge to sign a Protection Order, or the Prosecutor to press charges, or the jury to convict.

Two peculiar side notes here:

1) The first three and only moves of this game at Julius Bär Generation Cup with Niemann as white is the same opening as the first controversial game (2022-09-05) at the Sinquefield Cup but with flipped sides (Magnus white).

2) Chess.com, the organization that decided to ban Niemann [1] sometime between these two games based on his online play behaviour on that platform, just bought Play Magnus (a competitor to chess.com that Magnus formed) less than a month ago and is in the state of merging. [2]

- [2] https://www.chess.com/news/view/chesscom-playmagnus
If it becomes known that Magnus was having mental health issues (wouldn't be the first chess genius to have such things), then sure, my opinion may change. He most certainly did talk to the organizers. Why he has not made a public statement is beyond me, but I wouldn't be surprised if commercial interests and law suits are involved.

In principle I support this, but I can't help but think it's going to backfire.

Users buying LibreOffice on the Mac App Store are not going to be doing so because they care about free software – if they did they probably wouldn't be on a Mac and would probably download from official channels, perhaps donating directly if they want to contribute so that Apple don't take 30%.

This means that those users buying it are users who would otherwise buy/use iWork, Microsoft Office, or Google Docs, and I'm pretty sure they're going to be in for a bit of a shock. LibreOffice is usable, but it's not the same in terms of usability.

So, they're about to get a bunch of users who stumble onto their software, pay for it, have a bad experience, and then expect and are essentially entitled to customer support. Customer support through the App Store is hard at the best of times, so good luck. I somehow doubt the Document Foundation has factored this in to their pricing, or that they even have a customer support team.
Theory: For men in heteronormative relationships (which I don't hold up as an ideal but do believe are prevalent enough to heavily influence the stats): Married men are more loyal to a company while the company is paying them. If you fire a single man, you just punish them. If you fire a married man, you punish their family. Therefore they are more trusted in senior positions where they might have to make calls on the organisation's behalf which might conflict with the individual's ethics (as they are made secondary to the primary motivation of breadwinning), and these positions tend to come with higher salaries.
> "It's easier for a big corporation to break rules, so the playing field will be leveled by reducing the rules"

You're tackling tax-evasion by closing loopholes and increasing consequences for tax-evasion.

Decreasing taxes has no meaningful impact on the practice of tax-evasion, it doesn't "level" any playing field.
Honestly, I think the behaviour of the ethereum devs have led them to an inevitable head on fight with basically every large jurisdiction. You can't build a system that is explicitly designed to process transactions from sanctioned countries and expect that the no one is going to step in. It would be one thing if the devs could answer the simple question of "Who, other than Iran and North Korea need this?", but literally that is the only problem they're solving. The best case scenario is that Ethereum is going to end up as a fragmented cluster fuck where the biggest entities are compliant with US and EU law whilst a small cohort of entities are still helping the North Koreans launder money, or Ethereum caves and the core of their PoS algorithms are changed. And it's not unlikely that along the road to them caving there will be prison sentences.

The US government is not going to go "Ah, I see you've found a grey area, let us carefully consider this". It's going to go "Iran. Terrorism. Shut it down."

IOW, it's a nice thing to have, but what makes you think that it comes from a humanities degree?

> At this point the consensus can go whichever the government likes because those operating the nodes would want to be participating in the current legal chain.

I think this is an unwarranted assumption on your part. Capital would flee the US-controlled fork, causing the price of US-ETH tokens to plummet and staking to centralize. At that point there'd be absolutely no reason for US-ETH to exist: you could operate the same system more efficiently without a blockchain, and by isolating the system you would have lost the main, if not only advantage that blockchain systems have today: low-friction international transactions. Corporate entities which stick with the US-ETH split would find their revenues dry up very fast. I guarantee you that those which survive would be looking for ways to go multinational in their corporate structure so they can continue supporting ETH for non-US participants, and focus all of their efforts there. All this would do is isolate and exclude the US from participating in blockchain innovation.
People have done copious analyses of his game with Carlsen and found no evidence of cheating. And analyses of his tournament play the last two years have also not turned up anything suspicious, suggesting his meteoric rise in rating has been genuine.

How were the contracts "appropriately negotiated"? Did you have a fixed number of paid hours upfront where you created detailed requirements together with the customer that you all agreed to? And then you estimated every requirement based on solid experience doing similar work, multiplied by 3.14, got a "let's go" from the customer, sat down and implemented according to requirements and then delivered to customer within budget/in time? And when the customer found out that they wanted a certain feature to work another way. Then you put in a couple of hours to work out the new requirement and set up a new contract, properly estimated and delivered in time/within budget?

A web server (nginx) that can proxy your request to the other domain, but your browser sends everything to one domain, thus avoiding CORS.

Example: you have http://ui.localhost and you have http://api.localhost

UI speaking to API = CORS

But, instead of doing fetch('http://api.localhost/resource'), you do fetch('http://ui.localhost/api/resource')

In the nginx config for ui.localhost domain, you create a rule that says "everything that starts with /api, intercept it, remove /api at the start of the path and send the rest to http://api.localhost, ending up with http://api.localhost/resource"

I do frontend and backend development and I have this setup with docker-compose, the config for nginx is really trivial and widely available in many tutorials.
> What? Just because of reputation? What are you even talking about...

Is this a troll or some kind of rhetorical question? OP explained exactly his reasoning and clearly they said it was because of reputation.

It is not a court and Hans is not being tried on criminal charges, so what does that have to do with anything? Legal systems also have other standards for evidence such as balance of probability.

> The burden of proof is on the accuser. We should be shown evidence, or Carlsen should apologize.

What exact accusation did Carlsen make? A verbatim quote with complete context will be sufficient.

Do you have any tricks/hacks to make the switch easier?

Your brain will stay confused until it learns language “instincts” to the level when you just know how to write in it and don’t have to think about it, like riding a bike. This only comes with experience, ime. I’d advise you to isolate your time more, e.g. a week in go, another week in ts, to allow experience to sink in and form two distinct “wells”, but not sure if that’s actually required or feasible.

I also like a comment about having different IDEs. I’m using a similar technique for ssh and rdp, where critical servers have a distinct background or prompt, so I don’t fool around when it screams production A or production B.

I still can see specific colors when thinking about C (08), BASIC (18) and Pascal (1E).

To be fair they wanted to keep everything representable with 16 bits and that wasn't going to happen without the Han-unification. The mess when everything still had to move to a 32 bit representation has been far reaching, many programming languages went from exposing code points atomically as "char" to some half encoded nonsense value that just happens to also be a valid standalone value in UTF-16 most of the time and a source of bugs when you least expect it.
Imagine a book, a ballet choreography, a movie entirely conceived and produced by an AI, which we collectively regard it as "art". Also imagine that, barring evidence of how the work was done, it is impossible for humans to distinguish if the work of art was produced by a human or an AI.

Why should we, as "appreciators/consumers" of this art, care about how it was done? Do we think that a drawing made with the help with a computer "less artistic" than one drawn on paper?

Also imagine that this AI is friendly and superhuman, and it is established that its works are aligned with our interests. All "art" produced by this AI inspires us to be better version of ourselves and enlighten us to help us solve our conflicts. In this scenario, why should we care about the work of one particular human vs another?

The point that I am trying to make is that chess is already a reduced version of this hypothetical. Those that care about chess as a game will have little to learn by looking at humans. Those that want to improve their own game will do it by playing against/studying/interacting with the advancements in computers. There is very little left room for humans by themselves to show any new development in the game. As such, it seems to me that the ones interested in events related to human players are those who worry more about measuring humans against each other than in the game itself.
It can though. Kids can be young and make stupid mistakes.

I'm not saying that is what happened here - I really don't follow chess enough to have an informed opinion on this specific case.

However I object to the blanket opinion that there aren't people who cheated once and absolutely regretted it and never did it again, especially kids, especially online.

He's lost to weaker players before. He's lost to younger players before, and praised them. He's lost longer streaks. He's lost with white in such situations too.

He's even lost to Hans before, with white, in the game where Hans infamously said "The chess speaks for itself".

And he didn't immediately withdraw from Sinquefield. Hans' postgame comments, where he made an odd claim about preparation, came in between and may have been a factor.

Remember, Chess is a LOT about preparation these days, and Carlsen was also at one point #1 fantasy football player in the world. He probably knows a thing or two about applied statistics. Even overlooking the specifics, he wouldn't get as far as he has if he wasn't pretty good at keeping his frustration at losing from influencing his judgments.

"Innocent until proven guilty" is generally used in when talking about the state and punitive decision making, not a social norm. If my three best friends accused someone of trying to rob them, I'd be comfortable believing them even if they didn't get the altercation on camera. Would the police? Depends on the country, because as you said, the robber would be (and should be) considered innocent until the state can explicitly prove their guilt.

I don't think we should live in a society where people can be imprisoned by relying on accusations alone, of course hard evidence should be required, but I don't mind living in a society where people are free to use the shared knowledge of their own community to reach epistemological conclusions. If the chess community decides to trust Magnus and his credentials without any proof, that's their prerogative, the concept of criminal innocence doesn't come into play at all here.
Clearly different people have different needs.

Having two distinct "products" could help here. There could be a "bare rust" that is minimal and unopinionated, and used by those that need a small footprint, for example. A "battery included rust" could have common solutions to common problems that are hard to solve with "bare rust", at the expense of making choices that are best avoided for "bare rust".

My current outsider's perspective is that there's some kind of ever-shifting, never quite established consensus on which batteries to include, which tends to make it harder than necessary to switch project, interoperate between libraries etc.

"you start to respect the culture of minorities"

That's quite a leap from questioning why the federal government websites aren't translated into local languages. Care to share examples of such disrespect?

"Good examples of treatment of minorities are Finland with their treatment of the Swedish minorities there"

How would you rate pre-war treatment of language minorities in the Ukraine?

"In April 2019, the Ukrainian parliament voted a new law, the Law of Ukraine "to ensure the functioning of the Ukrainian language as the State language". On 16 June 2019, the law entered into force. The law made the use of Ukrainian compulsory (totally or within certain quotas) in the work of some public authorities, in the electoral procedures and political campaigning, in pre-school, school and university education, in scientific, cultural and sporting activities, in book publishing and book distribution, in printed mass media, television and radio broadcasting, in economic and social life (commercial advertising, public events), in hospitals and nursing homes, and in the activities of political parties and other legal entities (e.g. non-governmental organizations) registered in Ukraine."
