> Please remain civil, don't send hate mail and death threats (I've already gotten some myself). Last I checked this is a fan community where official people sometimes post, and none of the mod team were involved directly in the issue at hand (aside from the noted post removal)

Holy hell even the Reddit mods now get death threats.

That's what happens when abusive, toxic people aren't kicked out of online communities the first time they spread abuse around - they learn that their behavior has no consequences and, as a result, escalate.

I track 31 API Security vendors (not including the big guys like Imperva and Vericode.) This approach is going to disrupt a space that has taken in just over a billion dollars in funding in the last two years. Well done!

Any security tool that helps devs has to go to market through opensource in my opinion.

As far as everyone knew FTX was doing fine until a few days ago. Binance is inevitably going to follow a similar path. If you're using a currency/holding as leverage that can go to $0 overnight, you're far from in a good position.
Crypto companies tend to be very unhealthy.

Depends if Alameda goes down. They have billions of debt and we don't know who provided the capital. It could be traditional finance or it could be VTX. We just don't know yet.

> gcc and clang at least have options so you can optimize for specific CPUs. I'm not sure how good they are

They are not very good at it, and can't be. You can look inside them and see the models are pretty simple; the best you can do is optimize for the first step (decoder) of the CPU and avoid instructions called out in the optimization manual as being especially slow. But on an OoO CPU there's not much else you can do ahead of time, since branches and memory accesses are unpredictable and much slower than in-CPU resource stalls.

Pop can be configured either way, but what I wonder: doesn't this presume you only ever use one client? For me that would not work at all. Unless you sync mail between your clients another way, then I am all ears.
You can, 99.9% of the time, emulate linear history with first parent history, which is a post-hoc tooling choice that doesn't remove context.

Developers shouldn't try to merge branches with wip/wip/wip/wip histories either, that's just garbage. Commit messages are documentation, fix your documentation before you publish.
Also highly recommend the writings and statements by Michael Kofman, director of the Russia Studies Program at CNA (the Center for Naval Analyses). Particularly his regular updates on the state of the war at the War on the Rocks podcast.
Not if the liabilities taken on would cause financial stress on FTX with FTX itself is not doing as hot due to the collapse in crypto assets.
It was direct corroboration of:

> Apple users not being able to use the same hardware peripherals or same software as other people is not a problem, it's a feature. There's no doubt the M1/M2 chips are fast. It's just a problem that they're only available in crappy computers that can't run a large amount of software or hardware.
> I'm not going to waste my time arguing with you. You seem to have a firm belief. It's not objective and factually incorrect.

Yet here you are, arguing with me, making more baseless vapid claims which you can't be bothered to back up with any evidence whatsoever.

>I'm not going to say Israel is innocent, far from it, but it's not a terrorist state. It's also not an apartheid state. Words have meaning and you're not using those words according to their meaning.

Wrong. Israel is both a terrorist state and an apartheid state, the evidence for which is overwhelming and we have given you evidence[0][1][2] for it too, while you provided 0 evidence for your false claims.

I was thinking more along the lines of "My 300 car lot just became 4x 75 car lots!"

But I get it, it's a matter critical national economic security. I cannot think of an easier way for the government to massively ramp up energy resources without comparable ramp up in (government) budget. Offsetting a big chunk of power demand, even if that power isn't always when and where you need it, moves the needle big time.

If you have a large parking lot, you probably have a nearby large power demand, therefore you must throw some panels up ASAP. I would love to see this approach in a smaller format for the US. X sf of taxable retail space requires Y kWs of on-site solar capacity by end of 2023 to avoid an Alternate Energy Resource Fee. Start low, targeting 2% coverage of a typical suburban retail parking lot.

That doesn't mean Apple goes outs of its way to break syscalls (unlike microsoft), but there is no support for direct syscalls. That is why, again, you can't statically link libSystem.

I agree with your overall point, that Facebook employees have been very well taken care of, but:

Is this a Sourcegraph killer or does SG have other features that still keep it competitive?
I am interested in this line of logic, but I'm not sure I would go so far.

I feel engaging in commerce in any way at all is impossible without being "evil" under this definition.

Aren't advertisements at their core unconsented psychological manipulation? What about retail store design? Is providing customer service altogether just manipulation?

I think I take issue with the word "evil." It seems to imply a certain malice or intent to harm, which just isn't logical, given the context.
> At the start of Covid, the world rapidly moved online and the surge of e-commerce led to outsized revenue growth. Many people predicted this would be a permanent acceleration that would continue even after the pandemic ended. I did too, so I made the decision to significantly increase our investments. Unfortunately, this did not play out the way I expected.

There was similar wording to this in the recent Shopify announcement. I must admit, I was frustrated by it then, and I'm frustrated by it now.

"Many people predicted this would be a permanent acceleration?" Yeah, sure, many people who don't understand the concept of regression to the mean predicted a permanent acceleration. But here's the thing: if you thought that after months of being cooped up most people were just going to carry on sitting round their houses playing Runescape and jacking off, or never visit the shops again, you are an idiot. Now, I will grant you, there were some silver linings to the pandemic, and some people did kind of enjoy it, but there were also a lot of people crawling the walls who couldn't wait to be let off the leash again. Just look at what's happened with the travel industry and holiday chaos this past summer, at least here in the UK.

I saw Mark Zuckerberg on Joe Rogan recently. I've got quite a lot of hostility for Meta, due to the societal damage, and personal cost to individuals, for which it's responsible, but Mark Zuckerberg is an intelligent and interesting guy. Definitely worth listening to, not least of which because he actually comes across as a human being in this podcast episode rather than some sort of odd robot.

I'm incredibly disappointed that he got taken in by this idea of a permanent off trend shift to online and beyond him - and beyond Shopify - this kind of, "hurr durr, we got it wrong, wut you gunna do <<shrugs>>," justification for layoffs is going to get really old really quickly.

There's something really wrong with corporate governance that can look at an unprecedented situation like COVID and then jump to the conclusion that it's going to permanently change human behaviour in the round, disregarding all previous trends: humans are, after all, still human.

I guess my trouble is understanding the mindset of people that can't separate the resource they provide to a company from their self worth and personal identity.

It just seems fragile and delusional when the basis of the relationship is objective in nature.

I love my spouse and wouldn't want them to objectify me. I don't pretend my employer pays me because of a deep appreciation of my individual character.
I'd say you have it backwards, and are trying to follow outdated "norms" yourself in a world that's chiefly discarded them. That's the definition of social conservatism, by the way.

People do not really discard easily - you must actually do or say something that is actively harmful, especially to them, and has been repeatedly shown to do so to be actually excluded.
There is often a reason things are not said or done, and it is not something to be discarded offhand without looking into it. "But free speech" is never an excuse to be harmful.

People often do things without reflection. You already said you're a republican, branding yourself an ideologue or team sports player rather than someone one would want to discuss with. After all, how many ideologues does one need to talk with to know all their points in detail, especially as simple as US brand of neoliberal social conservatism?

> As far as GDP, Ethereum spawned an entire new industry with tons of companies paying actual salaries to people (in fiat, if I might add), all of whom bought lattes and cars and houses, and some, I'm sure, also bought Peloton bikes.

This is like the Broken Window Fallacy.

All that money that was spent building Ethereum could have been spent on activities that were far more useful to society.
Surely next step is having bots argue with each other so that we do not have to waste time doing it ourselves.
Is is an issue for airborne drones. And signal jamming isn't the only concern. Long-range drones mostly rely on communications satellite relays for remote piloting. In a major conflict with a near-peer adversary, those satellites will be the first casualties.

That's one of the main reasons why the US military continues to spend heavily on manned tactical aircraft. The Air Force is actually decommissioning some MQ-9 and MQ-4 drones in order to free up funds for purchasing more 5th and 6th generation manned fighters. Airborne drones will continue to play a role, but until we make some major leaps in AI they will only be able to handle very limited missions.

I'm just going to take a second to recognize the fact we're talking about "investing" in a currency and expecting 10x returns is nuts.

The best thing for crypto as a currency is for Etherium to be worth in 10-20 years exactly what it is now factoring in inflation. The fact that this is horrible for "Crypto" because this means eth won't be giving the 10-100x returns, is exactly what's wrong with the whole thing.

Outside of the outright scams and meme coins, the speculative value of most cryptocurrencies stems from the same belief that if (or once) the revenue levers are turned on, they will generate a lot of usage and revenue.

Ethereum is valued at $x,xxx per token because of the belief that more and more dApps will launch on it and everyone who uses them will have to buy Ethereum.

Uniswap's UNI is valued at $x per token because of the belief that once there is regulatory clarity, UNI holders will get a % of the revenue generated by Uniswap (currently over $100M/year).

These are basically startups with tokens. Some of them will go bust. Some of them will take years to monetize. Some will be profitable within a year.
I feel like a lot of modern products could benefit from that ancient lesson.
MANY CANADIANS AVOID sperm banks altogether, says Cohen, often because they can’t find a match through ReproMed or other banks. But this approach—when it involves strangers—comes with hefty risks.

Tanisha Lepine of Oshawa, who is white, was searching for a Black donor because she wants her children to look like her wife, who is Black. “I never want anyone to question my wife,” says Lepine, “or think she’s the nanny.”

Lepine and her wife wanted to use imported US sperm but found it too expensive. It was going to cost roughly $6,000 for three vials from a Black donor in the US, in addition to fertility-clinic fees. “I don’t have almost ten grand sitting around waiting when I’m trying to start a family,” she says.

Lepine found a free Canadian donor through a Facebook community and was able to inseminate herself at home using a disposable, needleless syringe—known colloquially as the turkey baster method.

Conducting “psychological” experiments without “consent” is the only way to do science. Perhaps in this instance the knowledge gained is used in the ad industry and not benefiting society, but the nature of the research is to be admired and replicated.
I think the biggest thing is composition over inheritance, and try to put your state into a container like CDI (Using Scoped beans).

If those design paradigms don't work, we've actually had a bit of luck using BPMN and executing it via Drools. This is not "easy" per say but our processes and decision tree were not simple either.

Wishing there was a simpler and modern BPMN like language that supported CDI directly.

Crypto.com are not long for this world but I don't think this is their demise, rather, this is specifically the Solana blockchain, which is... well, it's not a traditional blockchain. More a reflection on Solana (and it's vulnerability to the demise of FTX) than Crypto.com.

Can I ask a real question here:

> all private communication on the internet should be E2E encrypted by default, unless there is a good reason not to.

Why? Why do you think this. What value do you imagine this is bringing you beyond simple TLS?

Because to me, this is like saying "All conversations should be whispered by default, unless there is a good reason not to." except that's obviously not reasonable, because there are many reasons not to whisper all the time. In the same way that there are many reasons wrapping all your communication into a black box is a bad idea (discoverability and search being the most obvious two, although data loss is right on up there).

There was also an FX!32 for Linux. But I think it may have only included the interpreter part and left out the transpiler part. My memory is vague on the details.

I do remember that I tried to use it to run the x86 Netscape binary for Linux on a surplus Alpha with RedHat Linux. It worked, but so slowly that a contemporary Python-based web browser had similar performance. In practice, I settled on running Netscape from a headless 486 based PC and displaying remotely on the Alpha's desktop over ethernet. That was much more usable.
I agree for the simple reason that the JVM community pays a lot of attention to backwards compatibility. This alone means if you're working on an investment thats going to be around for more than 2-3 years, it's a solid choice. Contrast that with the NPM/Node community, where they regularly break backwards compatibility every couple of months because it needed to be redesigned.
> This could be important if there is any litigation made against Mick for this post if they attempt to destroy him financially by going to court.

The problem is, every lawsuit - even if the facts are on your side - still has a chance of going belly-up at least partially and making you responsible for even a part of the opposing party's lawyer costs as judges have quite a bit of leeway in many jurisdictions on distributing cost between parties. Big companies routinely abuse this threat scenario because they know 99% of people can't afford paying big lawyer companies that earn five digits an hour.

Declarative stuff gets converted to imperative at execution time. A significant difference is that a declarative system is not dependent on a particular state.

Telling a site to get you from X to Y is declarative, because X can be anything and it works. The printed out instructions are imperative, and only work for a fixed X or somewhere already on the path.

Maps is more declarative because it continually generates imperative instructions to get to Y regardless of where you currently are.
Idgi, the Solana network functions normal, and SOL is not intimately tied to FTX. They only reason they would do this imo, is if Crypto.com itself has problems (they want to slow withdrawals?). What am I missing here?
Failing at reasoning makes the above paragraph even more funny.
Our human application of reason is never perfect. Even mathematical and logical truths are as useful as matter to which we apply them.
There is no need for intent in anything either. Even reasoning can be done unintentionally.
