IOST (IOST) Price Prediction 2022

The IOST Price was swinging from $0.022 resistance2 to $0.016 resistance1 subsequent to contacting the help level at $0.01. It switched from the help level of $0.01 and presently going sideways on the lookout and is supposed to be bullish before long.
In the meantime, our drawn-out IOST price prediction for 2022 is bullish since it can't break the current help level soon. We can expect that IOST should reach $0.05 in 2022.
> Validation checkmarks will now cost $20/month.

Has Twitter said so on the record? AFAIK the only reportage comes from unnamed sources in an article from The Verge.
There are solid technical reasons for systemd's binary logging.

The nice thing about its binary log format is that it's organised by fields which are indexed for quicker searching and filtering. It's much easier and faster to analyse these logs than the traditional text-based ones.

Also, having journald authenticate the process that is sending it log entries, and the log sealing capability, are two features that can help guard against log tampering.
I think we could already run them from simulators cockpits. So just throw in a few cameras and network and let the rules to be lose.
Happy to see this getting updated, although it is bittersweet to realize it has a minuscule user base and that the UX will likely never change (the three-button mouse UX simply isn’t a good fit for today’s laptops).
I think you mean “Cotard delusion”.
Those 100 alternatives, if they had settled on a protocol, that protocol could have become the standard and could have motivated Twitter and Facebook to join. Each alternative could have coexisted in that environment.

I would like to know why neither ActivityPub nor the Matrix protocol were adopted. Maybe https://atproto.com/ will gain the necessary momentum.
This is probably one of the biggest challenges ahead, likely more so than making hardware that still somehow scales despite Moore’s law slowing down and tapering out entirely. The increased scale of integration with advanced 3D packaging and chiplets is a nice way forward, but the heterogeneity of those solutions need innovation at the programming model as much as anything else: how do you make such a complex system accessible in a way that the programmer can actually use it efficiently?

As much as I like semiengineering and their articles, they are very hardware and process technology focused and tend to miss the software side of things.

Just read https://www.theverge.com/2022/10/31/23434002/twitter-layoffs-internal-messaging-uncertainty-elon-musk and Musk sounds like an insane at best and evil to the point of sadistic at worst kind of boss.

Teams trying to accomplish impossible projects under the threat of being fired?

Printing out code for review?

Being fired right before stocks are getting vested - and told that this is going to be a priority?!?

This leadership is clearly throwing everyone under the bus and repeatedly running over the bodies.

This is beyond horrible. How are employees not simply walking out?!

Is it time to unionize Twitter?

I am honestly shocked by so many people - some of the smartest, top experts in the world - taking such abuse without resistance.

> But which jurisdiction applies to the AGI?

This is pretty simple: AI needs to "touch the world" somewhere. Where it touches, there has jurisdiction. Even if you're floating a boat out in international waters or space, laws apply both there and in the place you touch.

There are obvious issues regarding extradition to render a case if the agent is not physically present to be apprehended, but the principle for doing so is well established and uncontroversial.

The crypto world is a reasonable illustration for how the question of "which jurisdiction applies" plays out in the real world. Turns out that ignoring laws is not the same as them not applying to you.

As soon as you touch the world you are subject to the system of control there.

> the platforms take care of commenting (account management, moderation), something that's more or less impossible for a DIY solution.

This could be a bug, not a feature if you look at it from indie-bloggers' perspective. The DIY types are not target audience for the solution you're proposing.

There is a space for both 1) Substack-like platforms 2) DIY indie blogs.

Some cool things about DIY blogs:

- Email them! You can make friends by just emailing people. Private conversations.

- No censorship, this is a complex topic but DIY'ers probably consider censorship a bug than a feature.

- Custom design and personality

They work there because:

1. They like the new vision/leader

2. They're waiting to get laid off and take a severance package

3. They're looking for a new job now but haven't found one

Elon has built two very successful companies and he has done it his way. He's bringing his way to Twitter. I think it'll be good for Twitter long-term because Twitter was falling into the category of where you'd go to work if you want a cushy retirement job.
I wonder if this is the prelude to unblockable government propaganda. Already get it on all the social media after all.

Calling it now, let's see in a couple of years how deep the state really is.
Yes. I have set up a minimal server that performs two daily checks of the modification date of an empty text file. If the last modification date is behind by a week, my loved ones get an email announcing another mail that will be sent a week later. This email includes descriptions to my KeePass containers and where to access them. In addition to a goodbye message for my close ones.

The one week buffer has saved my butt a couple of times already. And the callback is really simple. I created a Tasker task that touches the file in the morning once I unlocked my phone. So there is really not much work involved.

MikroTik LTE routers are another good candidate. Land a wireguard tunnel on one, log in, and read the sms that come in via syslog.

This is only considering part of the question, which makes it a false comparison.

Classic MacOS had pretty much the best UI on any mass-market computer ever made.

And that's the part that its users saw all day every day, and interacted with, and which made Macs desirable.

Not just the front-end of programs: this extended to how to install new programs, how to add drivers or other system components, how to add fonts; how to connect to printers; how to make or break drive connections to other machines; how to connect new drives, and how to remove them. All the daily tasks of running a computer.

But UNIX people, with their gods-awful UI, didn't care about this then and they don't care about it now. UNIX UIs are better than they were but they are still very poor.

The real problem is that all the visionary innovators got old and retired and their replacements don't have the overall vision and don't really understand how stuff works, so they randomly tweak things without understanding.

So Mac OS X's UI was never as good as Classic's, and it's been getting worse and worse for 10-15Y. Read John Siracusa's excellent in-depth reviews of Mac OS X on Ars Technica for details. The generally accepted high point was Snow Leopard, 10.6, and it's been downhill since.

Microsoft never had much of the plot, but what they had hit a high point around 1996-1996 and it's been downhill since. Now, as in the last decade, Windows is a
UI train wreck.

But still people bang on about largely irrelevant behind-the-scenes stuff, not understanding that it's the whole picture that matters, not just the UI but not just the backend either.

“Richest get richer” could describe any form of capital investment in a risk-on asset that appreciates over time: buying gold, stocks, real estate, art, VC. If you have capital to place at risk in an investment that gives you a return*, you are “rich and getting richer.”

Unlike stocks and other investments, you don’t need a large amount of capital to receive a PoS reward, and there are less significant economy of scale. All validators receive an equal % return no matter how much Eth they deposit. Those without 32ETH capital can use pools and decentralized staking platforms to receive the same % return minus a small fee to the service who has the capital at risk and is doing the work to validate.

Opposite to a pyramid scheme: if more people join Eth deposit pool, everybody including early investors earns collectively less % reward on their stake, and the equation for this is explicit and known! And the staking deposit of each new entrant does not funnel back up to early entrants.

* Note: a lot of these investors are down since last year, not just Eth but stocks and other investments have crashed.
It really was not.

You were kidding yourself then and you still are.

The year after that I bought an Acorn Archimedes A310. 8MHz ARM2. It was 4x faster in raw single-threaded integer computation than the top-end 80386DX 25MHz with L1 cache that IBM sold, and that was a $10,000 PC.

It was about 10x quicker than your 16MHz machine... and it cost £800.
And economists do not care about the problem. Often because they were not told so at college.
It's a bit of a stretch to lump all of that in with the term Viking, though. I think the actual settlement and conquest is a different phenomenon. Like, I wouldn't consider the Normans Vikings.

When people think of the Viking age, it's more of the phenomenon of groups of men going on expeditions from Scandinavia to make amphibious assaults on soft targets. Most of the men who did this did a couple big scores and returned to village life back home. This transformed into settlement, adoption of Christianity, and then the carving out of the niches you identified.

The Magyars had a similar arc. The Arabs, too, except that their raiding ended up steamrolling through the ailing Roman and Sassanian empires, leading to their own intercontinental empire and religion, rather than settling into existing systems.
This is a great idea. Can even automate it using home assistant for precise control if you're using android. Home assistant's android client reports battery life to your home assistant instance, so you can write an automation that switched on a smart switch connected to charger when the phone's battery <50% and turn off when it's >95% (or other values optimized for battery longevity.
Wait where are you getting programming books for $10?
GDP is super easy to fake. Just sell something on the black market. Just trade a service for a service instead of paying for it.

Or, to push it in the other direction: sell a service back and forth. I sell you a message for 1 billion and then you sell me one for 1 billion. Now we’ve increased gdp by 2 billion (although you need to live in a zero VAT and zero income tax country to do that as a private person and still have it count)
Having worked on enterprise systems, it's not that the developers are always incompetent, it's more that everything is top down designed by committee. Nothing can be harmonized as everyone wants their workflow in there, each one slightly different, there's political infighting, jobsworths, people scared to lose their jobs, all under a strict budget and deadlines to meet.

No one knows what they really want till the software starts getting written and someone finds out they can't do their job, then come change requests (made a lot of money off of them). You kind of just get numb to it all.
Not sure. I actually had an iphone with battery so swollen, the screen got popped out of the frame by itself. Maybe newer iphones is better at this stuff, but why risk your house burning down when you can take some precaution regardless the type of phone you use.

> We're heading toward smaller communities with 1000 max member forums, about narrow topics, hosted by regular people and not startups.

We had this, but those days are gone. Forums used to reign supreme but was killed by a small number of centralized players. Due to the power of the network effect, I don’t see us going back to stand-alone forums anymore, unfortunately. I am skeptical about a federated system of individually managed instances due to the fact that all it takes is some minor inactivity/inaction on the part of the operator to render the service down for the count.

I would love to be proved wrong on this.
You don't have to have the social networking site handle the privacy information. You could integrate eId as identity providers and for a site like Twitter only provide guarantee that this is a human and this identity is unique for this human on this service.

You wouldn't be anonymous but you could be anonymous towards everyone but the identity providers.

No, I use feeds so I own my aggregator (even if without much ML fancy) and annotate things via org-mode.

Respect of the past instead of just reading headlines, now turned too much into pure propaganda, I try to spot trend aggregating different PR news here and there. It's time consuming but as a sysadmin I have many "free time" still bound to a desktop so... when I'm on holidays, on a trip etc I just casually looks headlines and coming back skim a bit what's accumulated, generally dropping the excess. Not really a good balance but effective enough for my taste.

Unfortunately in the modern world a GOOD source who made daily press review does not exists anymore so...
> 2) A lot of times something like this is how you form some new regulations - it's truly one of those "You know, this was excellent but we can't do it again" situations.

I don't watch Nascar, but as from comments from other places, there is nothing new with it. It has been known and attempted by others now and then [1]. It is a high risk high reward move and this time it turned out good.

If it wasn't regulated so far, I don't think it will be.

Awesome app, thanks for sharing!
They probably got used until they were worn out, while this one's been safe in storage. They weren't designed and made to be museum pieces, but to be worn (not for everyday purposes so much as ceremonially as a symbol of power and respect).
I've used masterless salt for managing pet hosts, and the experience was pretty good (though I also already had experience using salt on a 30ish node cluster). However, these days it would be the only reason I would have Python installed on some of them. Avoiding that dependency management would definitely be a selling point.
> The way the Internet is built, it's very difficult (maybe impossible) to ever tell if a client app is being operated by a human or a bot.

Indeed, I'm leaning towards it's not possible:

- Even if you required government id, you'd get a market of people selling their unused accounts, or access to them.

- You can use end-to-end DRM, like iMessage, to rate limit and complicate access to accounts, but it prevents access to legitimate actors.

- Even if you magically solve it, it still prevents legitimate bot access, such as those that keep track of when Elon musks private jet is being used.

The older I get, the more I think we're all just holding it wrong. Like the war on drugs, you can't just hunt down the bad actors. Instead, social networks simply become what they incentivize. If you make "followers" and "influence" your inofficial currency, the spam and impersonation isn't exactly a mystery. In fact, I'm pretty sure that engagement optimization contributes to making spam much worse (think clickbait).

I don't think our current generation of social networks was designed with a solid understanding of game theory. Or perhaps it was, but the important findings were ignored because it tends to interfere with growth.
With the cost cap these days, I wish they would let up on so many of the 'this is to expensive to develop for everyone' regulations.

Give us back mass dampers, active suspension, flexi-wings, dual-axis steering, and similar things. None of these are driver aids, and they aren't inherently unsafe (flexi wings might be more fragile). They were banned because it would be too expensive for everyone to have to develop it.

But the cost cap solves the problem of 'too expensive for everyone to develop it'. Everyone gets the same choice, and if a properly tuned mass-damper takes 30 million to get right, and 10 million to sort-of-work. Then people get to pick where the best cost-benefit trade-off lies.
Then it is a very coherent simulation, with extremely deep and elegant rules that are always followed.

Apparently the tao never spent days as a kid running around the house putting pots under the ceiling when it rained, raised multiple kids with severe birth defects, being beaten at home and at school, kept getting shocked by the dryer, or had a wife whose meds cost $50K a year.

I'm dipping in an out of complete darkness and have been for a while. I rather like it! I find that news mostly serve to increase my stress levels, and most of the things I read about are stuff that I am completely helpless towards (like current war in Ukraine).

I find ignorance really is bliss, however there are drawbacks. I usually hear about big stuff from friends talking about them, so I have yet to miss an election for example, but I have on multiple occasions found myself on election day not knowing who is even running. I have on those occasions asked a trusted friend who to vote for as there simply wasn't enough time to read up on all the politicians running.

I guess I come across as a bit clueless at times, but it's usually when the topic of conversation is centered around either celebrities of some sort, or recent politics.

I find I'm not actually very interested in those topics anyway so I'm ok with being clueless there.

Whenever I do come out of complete darkness I usually stick to tech focused sites, like HN and arstechnica, as I find they usually have less stressful content than "regular" news sources.
