"A man with a why can endure any how."

You can't force something to be your "why", it has to be natural, so if you haven't found it yet just keep exploring and enjoying the journey.

The older I get the more I find acceptance plays a role in all of this. At some point you may have make the choice to accept what you have and what you don't, embrace it, and let yourself be happy putting your all into that little universe. This doesn't have to conflict with having goals/dreams either!

Introspection through meditation can be helpful for this sort of stuff too.

And when the mom-and-pop bookstore down the road can no longer exchange their crypto for fiat (needed to pay their taxes), do you think they’ll keep accepting your crypto?
I could get into an even longer discussion on this, but basically when I brought up UI automation teams my advice was:

Use granular element-oriented functions (i.e. loginButton.click() or fillForm(name, pw) type stuff for the very small part of the very few tests that were specifically exercising that portion of the UI.

Those you probably define traditionally for POM, as methods of the page (or functions in the page module depending on the language).

Use result-oriented functions (logIn(), registerNewUser()) whenever it's "travel" i.e. things you do to get to the start of your scenario, or a setup/cleanup task.

Those you do not keep with your pages, they live in modules organized by task or result. Plus they have to work from anywhere. They can leave you somewhere, if that's their defined result, but they should be callable from any UI state. By the same token, tests shouldn't assume how they used the UI to get there, again, unless that was defined as their result.

In other words, they're functions: black boxes. The biggest point there was "you can't change this function without preserving that contract, and you can't assume anything but that contract."

The advantage is that if you could wave a magic wand for setup, travel, or cleanup and get the result, the test would still work and be valid. IOW, you can select the most robust and direct way to accomplish those things, even going completely around the UI with cookie injection or whatever.

What most other teams I've had visibility into tend to do differently than I advised is they'll use the granular element-oriented POM functions everywhere except fixture setup/cleanup. They don't have the "travel" concept of things you have to do on the way to your scenario start, and they include that in the test scenario itself with granular element calls.

And travel is really all setup. But some reason when it's "set up yourself via login, option selection, loading a file, etc" people's thought process goes out the window and they think that all needs to be strung together in UI like a user would do it. But intelligently separating out the very small bit of "specific UI manipulation that causes a state change + verification of that change" that is the test from everything else in the scenario that is setup/travel/cleanup gives you much more maintainable tests.

Or even when they do separate them out, they're not really "result-oriented" functions. Instead they're "flow-oriented" macros that you couldn't replace with a magic wand, because the meat of the test assumes intermediate UI flows they performed rather than just end state, and they're written to be strung together in some coupled (and usually undocumented) way.

Then you have the systems that try to use the same functions for setup/cleanup and testing, caught in between the need for granularity and robustness. Those tend to get extra "doItThisWay" flags on their functions and stuff really goes to hell.

Gotta keep 'em separated!

TL;DR I agree with you, and even a few steps further.
If you think the value is > 0, you (or someone) should be able to estimate what that number is. Because the number should be based on... something. Otherwise, = 0 seems correct.
The past year has demonstrated pretty clearly that BTC is not an inflation hedge.
I've been using this for a week since reading this post and I'm enjoying it.

The quick capture is the killer feature for me, although it'd be even better if there was a shortcut which automatically captures context too (e.g. URL, email)- maybe there is and I'm missing it.

Mobile capture is a bit of a nuisance but sure you're aware of this. I think a WhatsApp bot would be the best way to give reliable offline or online capture without an app but I haven't seen anybody executing on that so perhaps there are issues with the idea.

Agree with the other comments about the calendly-lite features being unecessary for me, and add complexity to a fairly busy UI.
A quick google shows that the US government has given $16.8bn in aid to Ukraine. It seems like the centralised system is doing significantly better.
> IMO it seems more likely that the interests of this class, and others similar -- the lawyers, doctors, engineers -- will align more with the elite than the serfs.

It often feels like this in the US. We (educated, well paid, middle class people) do have a closer cultural experience with the true elite. But despite the similar cultural experience the economic underpinnings are very different. Paying your bills from the wages of your job is categorically different from getting yield on an investment.

This economic difference becomes apparent in how the system evolves - when jobs shift offshore, you might see the well paid jobs disappear while owners* continue to make profit from the offshored business.

In other words, it turns out that well paid wage earners like me are actually in the same fundemental economic situation as "the serfs" even if our day to day lives look like the elite, for now.

* Many working people do have stock, especially when you count retirement (thanks to the 401k). This does them owners in one sense - the do literally own part of corps and get some of their profit. But while that's still just a supplement to wages as the main income, it doesn't really matter. If you lose your job or it becomes low-paying, your ownership will dry up rapidly. It hasn't changed your position in the system.
Only necessity commodities are a good asset to own in a recession. And in practice due to retail patterns volatility in bad times nothing is a "good" thing to own. (If you know a vertically integrated food producer that produces their own water and fertilizer, do let me know though.)

Also note we have a global currency war, where U.S. is forcing policy/pick your side to countries and also "exports" inflation.

This is done in part by the rate of increase of interests rate -- a derivative other countries can not simply follow up. In big part in the way energy gets exported.

So as DXY goes up everything else free-falls, and causes extra strain -- as the fixed costs to pay debt increase rapidly due to the rates too -- things break. And when things break, people sell everything they can to save the boat.

So you are looking at a table full of fireworks randomly popping trying to guess what is going to stay there. I wouldn't say there is a good asset thus.

Note this is simply unsustainable.

My number one feature request for Thunberbird is the automatic display of all conversations from a contact, when I'm reading an email message from them. Lack of this feature is the primary reason I've switched to an alternative email tool. I suspect it would be quite a lot of work to implement, though. Wish I knew even the basics of the Thunderbird codebase, but it is very far outside of my basic hacking ability.

We don't know for sure what is the level of Chinese influence on Putin and if they against or they are pro-nuke.
How is that particularly relevant? Data isn't knowledge. Just because some assets have public records doesn't really tell you anything about liabilities or underlying ownership.

Exchanges could practice provable solvency ( https://eprint.iacr.org/2015/1008.pdf ), but they aggressively do not-- in part because they don't want to bring customers attention to the potential issue (and they rightfully reason that once customers are concerned no amount of technical solution will likely satisfy them).

But FTX wasn't really an exchange-- it was a scamcoin casino primarily trading in highly leveraged proxy assets ("perpetuals") as a bucketshop.

Genuine question. What makes you feel that -a is an ugly flag?
Past performance is not indicative of future performance. It's very realistic that one of these crashes is the last one. If we could be sure it wasn't, it never would have crashed to begin with. It's just a long game of pass the bomb where everyone bets on which year it really does explode.
Scarcity is a major part of gold's value. Gold's value comes from being scarce and easily divisible. It means I can pay for something in an exact small bit of gold.

It doesn't have to be useful or pretty to do either of those things. That's the case for bitcoin being digital gold.

The problem with bitcoin is that it isn't significantly better than gold at doing either of those things, and obviously isn't any better than any other random unit in another distributed crypto ledger. You can create new crypto tokens so fast that people went from trading particular to issuing single instances of new tokens with NFTs.

Being useful and pretty just provides a baseline value; gold is never going to fall to zero. But the important part is that nobody is about to invent a new gold to compete with the old gold on the merits of scarcity and divisibility. Even though bitcoin when considered alone is a nice try, every other cryptocoin destroys its scarcity.

For audio/video setup signaling then streaming, I wonder what are the simplest open protocols out there, but good enough to do the job.
You're not getting it. Vendors almost all immediately convert Crypto to USD or their local currency. When the exchanges collapse that will no longer be possible. Poof, your ability to use Crypto also ceases at that very moment.

You are incredibly exposed to the same risk that these exchanges have.
The KERNAL already supplied with the Commodore 64 had enough basic functionality to be considered an operating system and not just a "monitor":

- Devices were addressed by a primary address (0-31) and secondary address (meaning=device specific)

- You had basic I/O calls: OPEN, LOAD/SAVE (read/write a block of memory), CHRIN/CHROUT (read/write a character), READST (get I/O status), and CLOSE.

- You had the default input and output device and those could be redirected to a file (CHKIN/CHKOUT)

- It was totally possible to open the keyboard for input (device 0) and screen for output (device 3) and get basic buffered terminal-like I/O.

Now if you want to talk about windowed event-driven GUI, now that was crazy for 1982. But Commodore 64 users were lucky to get the above, as Commodore was all about cost cutting, time to market, and underpricing the competition with the 64. Developing a GUI-like environment would have been seen as an unnecessary cost - after all Commodore 64 was stuck with BASIC 2.0 which was primitive even for the time (other Commodores had higher BASICs). That's why an external entity like GEOS really had to come along and do it, because Commodore just wanted to sell as many as possible, and they did that spectacularly well.
>In the future, instead of everyone sharing the same search engine, you’ll have your completely individual, personalized Mike or Julia or Jarvis - the AI. Instead of being scared to share information with it, you will volunteer your data, knowing its incentives align with yours. The more you tell your assistant, the better it can help you, so when you ask it to recommend a good restaurant nearby, it’ll provide options based on what you like to eat and how far you want to drive. Ask it for a good coffee maker, and it’ll recommend choices within your budget from your favorite brands with only your best interests in mind. The search will be personal and contextual and excitingly so!

This is exactly what Google is trying to do....unsuccessfully. I doubt you will have the scale to outperform Google if you try to replicate Google's AI model and replace ad based search with subscription based search. My point is don't do what Google is doing, think differently.
Certainly an interesting contribution to the world.
Imagine FB can report that its ads are driving 60% of sales at a lower ROI than other channels. That’s a great incentive for companies to spend more on FB.

Due to the iOS privacy consent form, FB can’t provide these kinds of reports anymore. There hasn’t been a decent replacement which drives companies to spend money with Facebook. That’s why revenues are down.

This is also why VR is such an important investment. If Meta will own the VR platform, other companies such as Google and Apple wont be able to block Meta’s attribution.

America has been an oligarchy for a long time but it's becoming super apparent because of the pandemic. Also, things like cancel culture, the two party duopoly, and weaponized social justice are not helping anything and leading to a form of progressive fascism that is killing the country by killing productive debates.

Super good quotation from the article:

“The thought was, if you platform me, it’s a dangerous thing,” Bhattacharya said.

“You know what’s dangerous? Is to not platform me. If you have a legitimate scientific view, a legitimate policy view, then not speak of it, then essentially what it does is it sends a message that we do not care about the truth.”
Genuine answer: I'm holding my crypto assets until I can exchange them for the goods and services I need. I never exchange any crypto back to fiat.

I don't "invest" to make money. It's a currency. I buy it to use it. I might have to hold it for 5 years, maybe 10, maybe 30, or maybe I'll die and crypto will never be successful (a sad thought but possible).

But in the meantime I'll do what I can to improve adoption. That includes working on core protocols, improving UX for non-technical users, or writing software that helps vendors with payment integration. I also make an effort to approach business and show that there is demand for crypto payments.

This is literally the only way to make crypto successful. All this price action non-sense, and people wanting to get fiat-rich is just unproductive noise to me.
In the tweet, the waveform image on the left is Mick’s original “BFG Division” track from the Doom 2016 OST.

In the same tweet, the waveform image on the right is Chad’s edited version of Mick’s track for the Doom Eternal OST, entitled “BFG Division 2020.”

The comparison is valid, because it is Mick’s music, and it also serves to demonstrate the audio engineering expertise on the Doom 2016 OST, which was hailed as a masterwork soundtrack in the genre.

However, Mick did not mix this particular track for the Doom Eternal OST, and this is the critical point of this specific waveform comparison; that is, as Mick expresses in the article (and the waveform comparison demonstrates), the Doom Eternal OST is not entirely representative of his actual work, or the full depth of his audio engineering expertise.

This is due to decisions and modifications that were made without his input (e.g., the aforementioned editing).

Your purpose is something that can shift over time.

Some are lucky to find it quickly, others it takes awhile.

For me it has shifted as I’ve grown.

In my past I’ve been:
A Christian preacher
A Navy submarine sailor
A wedding DJ
A cyber security guy for the feds
A software engineer

I’ve been lucky to find fulfillment in my work, my mission. Other ways I’ve found is to give back in some way. For example I use my technical talents to help secure police and 911 systems for my state as a volunteer, others help at shelters or with disaster relief. Others still are big brothers and big sisters. Some find it in religion.

It’s hard to feel unfulfilled when you’re making the world a better place. It’s a good place to start.

Take the scenic route through life, give freely of yourself to others, in this you will find peace.
Well I misremembered it seems. You can use forward declared enum class or enum : <type> in C++ as per standard:

enum class A; // defaults to int
enum B :int;
enum C;
fooA(A);
FooB(B);
FooC(C);

fooA((A)0);
fooB((B)0);
fooC((C)0); // error

but indeed GCC refuses plain enum. Forward declaring enums in C is an old GCC extension that still deosn't allow to pass them when incomplete;

Enums in GCC do always default to int or unsigned int, unless -fshot-enums is used which is ABI breaking.

Probably I was misremembering this combination of the int ABI and the forward declaring extension.

Honest question, why do you need FTX to exist to short? E.g. if you borrow 1 BTC from someone and then sell it for dollars, later when you need to return this BTC you need to buy it on the mark. The difference in price is either your gain or loss.
All exchanges suffer the same fate. There is just no reason for exchanges to be solvent. The industry is unregulated and there is too much money to be made. Binace will go. Coinbase will go.

I believe "crypto" will always be around. It's an MLM for the digital age. It will always be nonsense.

Bitcoin, however, I do believe is different.

A really bad asset to own in a recession. Its totally speculative and backed by nothing, it has no real use/value per se. Even gold's value is derived by the work taken to extract and mine it - it has uses in computing, jewelry etc. Bitcoin is just bits of data floating through the air. And don't even get me started on NFTs! During a recession people will withdraw their crypto and sell leading it to drop in value(more out in the wild) as they need money. I wonder if all of the tech layoffs this/last week triggered a huge sell volume(tech employees trying to cash out risky assets). The timing does seem suspicious.
I agree that it's volatile, but that doesn't necessarily recommend it as an an investment vehicle, nor is it the case that we have a lot of assurance that the bottom has been reached.

The main downside of bitcoin is that because it has no cashflow, no one knows how to price it. I agree that in some sense, this democratizes investment in bitcoin, but resistance to any rational investment thesis sure seems a lot like gambling.

I just hope everything is able to be persisted in files that are committed to the repo.
You can buy put options or outright short the mining companies. I don't recommend it unless you really know what you're doing and what the risks are, but it's worked out well for me.
