Good question... Why should we care?

It's like "okay, here we have a bunch of genetically gifted people who spend their whole lives training for that. Why should we care whether someone can run 100m in less than 10s or not? What difference does it make to any of us if Usain Bolt is the fastest man to run the 200m on a very controlled environment?"

This is not to say that running as an activity is useless, or that we should give up on exercising. I don't know if that is the point from OP, but I myself do question why we collectively think that is so important to devote so much time and resources in trying to optimize for these crazy, arbitrarily-constrained scenarios that we call "sports".

> If you're caught or admit to cheating even once in a professional competitive career that's it - You should be out for good

Yeah, justice!

If you steal something once in your life, straight to jail, for good. If you have a speeding ticket, no more driver license for the rest of your life.

After all, people don't change, any mistake in life should be fatal and destroy your entire future.

When you open an bank account anywhere in Europe you need to specifically sign that your money is not from the US or go through many extra hoops and maybe get a no. I wonder if that is also affected from this.
There are these things called chess engines - current best is called Stockfish - which calculate the best possible move in any given situation.

To cheat in chess you input the current state of the game and you get the best possible move out.
And then, after you're done hand-rolling queries with Postman, immediately start planning actual, safe, tools to do this kind of thing when the need crops up.

Someone on Niemann's team could have been feeding him info which "coincidentally" happens to be very useful, without Niemann suspecting where the info came from. (A bug in Carlsen's hotel room?)

Someone on Carlsen's team could be encouraging him to focus on lines which they've discovered (through a bug in the hotel room) that Niemann's team is preparing counters for.

In both of these cases, the corrupt team member could be motivated by the possibility of winning a large bet on the outcome of the chess match, without either player being in on it.

(I admit that the idea of Stockfish giving deliberately bad information only to Carlsen, to weaken his prep, is not very plausible, but we don't know how rational Carlsen is being here).
I'm wondering if anybody uses it on Mac at all. If you don't need lots of features iWork is provided for free (and can handle lots of Office documents). If you need to have Microsoft Office you can buy it.

It's not like it's any different for C. Rust gives you a choice of five operating systems? A given C library gives you a choice of one, on a good day. And if you've got your favorite C library already then binding to it is a breeze. I don't understand the mindset that because Rust and its entire ecosystem is less than perfect it should be junked for C which never even cracked a quarter of the distance.

> As more evidence comes out, it seems that Hans has cheated a lot more than he admitted, and potentially over the board as well (for example, this analysis [1] shows that he's playing at superhuman levels in some games.)

This is being overstated. There's not any hard evidence suggesting he's been cheating over the board, and for such a potentially career-ruining allegation you'd want some pretty strong evidence.

In my experience, people who do do deceitful stuff - steal, lie and cheat - act quite predictably when confronted with their allegations:

1. I didn't cheat!

2. Ok yeah I cheated those times but I never did it again

3. GOTO 1

It seems we've gone through this cycle once already - where Niemann has admitted that he was caught cheating on two occasions in the past. And now chess.com are saying actually he has cheated more times than that, so we're seemingly going through this cycle at least once more: https://twitter.com/chesscom/status/1568010971616100352

This is very feelings-based but as an outsider who doesn't really play Chess and can't evaluate what happened on the board, it certainly doesn't look good. He's at very least been quite dishonest
When you have no connections, no resources, no work history in the field

Sounds like you took a job at roughly the market rate (for what you're offering), not below market rate.

Just because some developers earn a lot, doesn't mean all developers should immediately earn that much or otherwise consider themselves underpaid.

Having connections, resources, experience, education etc. makes you more valuable and therefore increases the value of what you're offering.

In other words, don't compare apples and oranges just because they're both fruit.
But not remembering helps that. I have a good sense of what exists and what can be done and the general outline of many things. Keeping the details in your head makes it harder to be creative and think expansively.

I don't follow chess. I've heard of Carlsen in passing but that's about it.

As far as I can make up from this story, Niemann admitted to cheating online as a child (not exactly uncommon) but as of yet there's not an ounce of proof that he cheated against Carlsen.

What I don't understand is that people just take Carlsen's side without any proof. Some guy beat Carlsen so he must be cheating? What kind of reasoning is that? Surely the hyper-analytical chess community can provide some kind of statistic to prove that he cheated in the match against Carlsen? A comparison with Stockfish and friends in various combinations, perhaps? _Something_ more than "he beat the best of the best that one time therefore he's a cheating liar".

Until Carlsen and his friends can provide proof of cheating, I can only conclude that Niemann is now the superior chess player. He has now beaten Carlsen twice; once for real, once by Carlsen's resignation.

Right - but nothing is stopping them from making that law. Countries aren't simply going to adhere to a digital currencies protocol or allow it to avoid regulation because otherwise it goes against the "community spirit".

Here we are talking about the hypothetical situation of the U.S claiming complete jurisdiction of Ethereum. The U.S could make whatever laws it likes around the usage of Ethereum, legislate that all nodes have to adhere to these laws and job is done. The rest of the world can say "lolbye" and continue using it like nothing has happened, but in the U.S they would likely have to fork and create a new chain, and those who want to use it legally in the U.S would also have to use this new U.S-regulated chain. From there they can then implement processes to reverse transactions, introduce identification requirements etc.

Nothing happens in a vaccum, other parties tend to depend on your deliveries whatever they are. And those things are interconnected, if now everybody "focuses on quality" and delays things nothing gets done at all and not just late.
This means that you have array accesses that cause index out of bounds fatal errors instead of invalid pointer dereferencing that causes fatal segmentation failure errors. Detecting this kind of bugs reliably is a very good thing, but preventing such errors (and optimizing away bounds checking if possible) would be better.

Magnus Carlsen has basically been a model champion for close to a decade now. He's not known for controversy and the odd situations where he dealt with less-than-classy opponents, he's taken it on the chin and moved on, usually with nothing more than brief statement. And he has been very positive about other younger GM's. So him coming out and "accusing" Niemann is akin to a nobel prize winning scientist accusing a graduate student of plagiarism... even if chess cheating isn't very provable, I have to take Magnus seriously and give him a giant benefit of the doubt, he's earned it.
It is true, trends are immense social forces but also very much absurd and chaotic. It works until it doesn't and there's another wave.

The one thing I hate more than that, is articles such as this one that waffle on for eternity using pseudo-science.

For example, what do all the pretty graphs and paragraphs of waffle about coin tosses have to do with the price of eggs ? Its basically space padding that doesn't add anything to the argument they are trying to make.

> Regarding Russia/Ukraine conflict there's even more. There's no separate Ukrainian nation. It's not genes, it's not anything else

You seem to think that because Ukrainians and Russians have some shared heritage (cultural, linguistic and biological), they cannot be separate nations. But many other pairs of nations also share a significant degree of these things – Germany and Austria (and German-speaking Switzerland too), France and Belgium (Wallonia), Belgium and the Netherlands (Flanders), the US and Canada, the UK and Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. Do you apply the same standards to any of them?

> Republic of Ukraine was created by Lenin and later was supported by Stalin who promoted "ukrainization" of eastern regions of Russia.

Neither Lenin nor Stalin invented the Ukrainian nationalist movement. There were already people within Ukraine who viewed themselves as belonging to a distinct nation from Russia; Lenin and Stalin just decided to ally themselves with some of these people and grant them some of their policy wishes.

> We do not yet fully understand why they did it

Marxism was originally an anti-nationalist movement–hence, it was very natural for the Bolsheviks to oppose Russian nationalism and support the demands of ethnic minorities for autonomy. Then, in the 1930s, Stalin gradually changed his mind about the topic – he began to see ethnic autonomy movements as a potential threat to his rule, and started promoting Russian nationalism and Russification in response.
The mind set of working without planning and deadlines, caused by an inability of organisations to do so, is really troublesome. Using Agile as excuse is even worth.

> I call those “deadlines” time boxes. I believe that the industry would greatly benefit from distinguishing the two.

Interesting, I've not heard time box used in that context. I've seen it used to limit the amount of time you spent on something. So if there is some tricky bug, you would timebox it to 3 days one week. Regardless of if you fix the bug or not, you stop working on it after 3 days even if you don't deliver a fix.

In what I was talking about, you still delivered _something_, it might just be less than what was (initially) agreed upon. Normally it's polish/ux niceties that don't make the cut and then come in a later version.

I suspect 1000 years of hatred vs 100 years makes no difference. It probably is enough to brainwash some generations (so the living majority would be affected) to have them hate even harder than if that would have been real history.

State-level hatred propaganda (what took place in Russia during the recent years is an example but it's a more or less common practice worldwide - there are many rival countries teaching their peoples to hate each other) should be made a number-2 international crime on the UN level, straight after using biological weapons.

So if you know that on the ground the temperature is 10C and you know the mountain is 600 meters then on top of that mountain the temperature would be around 4C. But maybe this rule of thumb doesn't apply everywhere and everytime.

Well you read about them in the Great Depression, the workers who lead the rest to strike would in fact end up on blacklists. Get blackballed, never get a job anywhere no matter how small a wage they were willing to work for (before minimum wage, well irrelevant), they were known by face (photographs, happened to me) but in the employment situation in America today, it's not to that point of there being blacklists, and besides strikes and unions are not the answer they were then.

For sure, everything can have positive and negative consequences, it's rarely clear-cut.

It's also not about taxing a specific company, taxes are used to discourage/incentivize certain movement in a market.

If you (an individual) pay higher tax for using fossil fuels than renewable energy, you are incentivized to use renewable energy.,

In a just system, a FINE is ordered for breaking rules. I doubt that fining a company for i.e. anti-competitive behavior makes it "less rewarding" for small companies in the same space to grow. Moreover, those small companies were likely affected by those anti-competitive behaviors, as they were competitors.

One's lived experience may be that all languages are roughly the same, but that's only because one tends to only sink time into languages roughly the same as the ones they're familiar with. Something like 70% of languages have been derivatives of Java since Java was invented, but if you cannot imagine how programming could change meaningfully from Java then you are not trying hard enough. (In particular nobody who has learned a functional language, especially Haskell, would express this opinion.) Rust is a meaningfully different language, fundamentally requiring a different approach to design while offering much more power.

The state of next-generation geothermal energy – Eli Dourado
It’s a non-zero cost to develop the game. I sympathize with your desire to build an mmorpg that will pass the test of time without relying on servers, but you will definitely need a lot of money to make this come true. Crypto or otherwise.

Block times are complete state updates. The transactions that rely on the state of another transaction in the chain are 100% optimistic, and will roll back all dependent transactions. Now, that’s fine if you’re willing to roll back say…3000ms of your game state. But that’s all client side stuff, and that code is 1000% exposed, and you can’t upgrade it in the normal fashion. You also need validators for chain transactions, and your game can just be forked at any time by validators, splitting the player base. Kind of cool, but kind of defeats the balance and minimum population required to keep a game running. Also…the validators still need to run. Recovering a forked chain can only happen is someone has the state somewhere and is willing to seed new validators.

Sometimes, things need to end for another thing to begin. Sometimes it’s just best to move on.
At the bottom of things, the homelessness is just a symptom, while the root cause is mental illness or people living self-destructive lives (addicts, people who just don't care what happens to them and have no care for the future etc.). It's no longer 1930s, where "normal" people could genuinely be homeless because of economic difficulties. Sure, it occasionally happens now as well, but such people generally disappear from the streets within months (as they get a job and get back on their feet), not spend their entire lives on them.

In general, people care about homelessness, because it affects and offends them - so their solutions are to give some place to live to the homeless. It doesn't solve the problem though, as the homeless will still either be mentally ill or will engage in self-destructive behaviour - so they're quite likely to demolish the place, set it on fire, turn it into a crack den etc. But, the society does not ultimately care about that that much, but mostly wants to not have their moods ruined by seeing homeless on the streets - so warehousing them somewhere is seen as a good solution.
