Oh God. What a joy you must be to be around. You can care about whatever you want. I wonder if the people around you all the time have a running tally of what you turn political. Is it everything in your life? I bet it is.
No, because with ECH/ESNI the hostname in both layers (the TLS connection and the HTTP Host header) still matches. The only difference is that the hostname on the both layers is no longer visible on the wire, while without ECH/ESNI the hostname on one layer (the HTTP Host header) is hidden but the hostname in the other layer (the TLS connection) is visible. And you could still do domain fronting even with ECH/ESNI (making the hostname on each layer differ), though it would be kind of pointless.
Why would it kill people?
Question for folks with knowledge of the process. Government is also arguing for Holmes to pay $800 million in restitution. Obviously she doesn't have that kind of money (neither even does her heir husband), so people she defrauded are never going to see that.

But what happens to her in that case? If the court does sign off on a restitution penalty, is it the equivalent of a creditor's judgment against her? I believe acts of fraud can't be discharged in bankruptcy, so is this judgment something that would hang over her forever? Could the defrauded parties garnish her wages?

Just curious as to how the logistics of "unpayable restitution penalties" play out in the real world.
> The Danube and the Rhine were the two major rivers that could be navigated by Romans and they were the borders of the empire for that reason: they were the only way to supply border garrisons efficiently

I don’t see why the southern shore of the river would be easier to keep supplied from those rivers than the northern one. So, if the empire ended there because of supply issues, wouldn’t it end a short distance north of the river?

Also, wouldn’t those rivers only help supply from other border areas, not from the much larger inner parts of the empire?

I would think those rivers just are natural boundaries because they provide some protection against invading enemies.

My guess is its a way to communicate a message via txn data.
Do Twitter employees have employment agreements?
Yes. I agree about finding a good gym. Also be especially careful when sparring with other beginners who usually rely more on strength than technique. I have been injured twice while sparring with beginners(myself being a beginner as well). A knee fracture and a broken rib. Nowadays I take it easier since I’m in my mid 40s and recovery is slower. But I’m definitely not the oldest guy in the gym.

I also do judo once a week, and that’s lots of fun but a bit scary compared to bjj. I probably won’t continue doing that when I get old, not sparring at least.
It's probably OK if a percentage of them are damaged by the O2. If I take 4 to 8 trillion each time it just means I would have to do it more often.

The only alternative I know is the usual and incorrect in my opinion way people consume probiotics which is significantly worse. Most are destroyed by the hydrochloride acid, digestive enzymes and bile. Worse, some of them survive and have to pass through the small intestine which is absolutely the wrong place for bacteria to exist, especially if there is even the slightest amount of inflammation of the junctions and especially if some remain in the mucus layer and grow in numbers potentially leading to SIBO.

With my current method they go straight into a container of short chained fatty acids which I understand they can feed off of for a while. The SCFA are also beneficial for the large intestine.

It's not a novel problem, but nearly all cryptocurrencies exacerbate it by concentrating the majority of emission on the first few years. Non-pow coins even start with the creators holding 100% of supply.

When they could instead minimize the problem (or limit it to the pre-existing fiat inequality) with a pure linear emission, i.e. fixed block subsidy.

The resulting high supply inflation rate (1/n after n years) would have the side benefit of deterring speculation, and keeping prices (and hence environmental impact) low.
disproportionate amount of engineers want to work in the top 10 tech companies

Could it be because the top 10 tech companies pay well?

I know I could easily find jobs which pay 150k. But why should I do that if I can put in some effort and get a 250k job?
They're largely ERC-20 tokens, which can be swapped for ETH on DEXes. Monero is a whole separate blockchain, and cross-chain swaps are still in their infancy and don't have markets to convert ERC-20 tokens to Monero, or definitely not with any sort of volume.

The ETH will probably eventually be laundered and some of the cleaned coins sent places they could eventually be traded for XMR and eventually cashed out, but there's no way to do that quickly, and this needs to be done quickly.
The regulatory approval is a world first - they are happening all over the world already though
I think with cryptocurrencies we need to consider the sheer speed at which mass transactions can occur, and 24/7 to boot.
I have a situation at work where someone keeps reporting CVEs to me and I don’t think they get that our docker base image gets automatically rebuilt every so many days and picks up all the fixed from Alpine. If we do nothing that window will close itself in a few days. So do you think we need to drop everything and work on this or just wait?

Sounds like Mastodon is missing some engineering discipline and maybe this is a good time for some to show up. Fixing some of this stuff before Twitter gets even worse would be a good thing.

I highly, highly recommend you read up on electrical theory. When you're done go de-energize a system, disconnect the ground on a GFCI outlet, then connect the live of that GFCI to whatever piece of random material you have. Or lay it on the ground directly. When you re-energize the system, the GFCI will trip or it is bad.

If a GFCI was dependent on a device being grounded it'd be no better than a regular 3 prong outlet. We'd also have to ban 2-prong devices, which are probably most devices in a US home at this point.
Wouldn't an easier way to do this be to control diet? For one thing, it slows the process of change down which would ease any shock-related side-effects. Of course, it takes a lot of work from the patient to adhere, but if they are at the point that they are considering fecal transplant, they're probably ready.

This also gives the biome a chance to adapt to anything particular about the individual, if possible (certain pharmaceuticals may not be able to be worked around.)

Also, I would think if you did the transplant and never changed your diet, you'd often just go back to the old biome after a time, but I could be wrong about that.

Being able to do stuff like this was the point of the semantic web. That was supposed to be Web 3.0.

To be fair, according to a write up by a guy deep in the semantic web, there were several choices made that lead to the collapse of the first attempt.

There's a lot of literature on various kinds of cardio (esp HIIT and 'zone 2') and lactate production -> BDNF which is loosely understood to be very important for your brain.

Some more recent stuff on myokine release (from strength or cardio training) and warding off cognitive decline. Similar with training your balance (a parameter in exercise that is often forgotten).

More speculatively: crosswords and sudoku seem fine, but what about something much more cognitively demanding like doing serious mathematics?

I worked briefly with Mark-Jason Dominus in 2000. He added instrumentation to the Perl regex engine so that we could develop a regex debugger for the forthcoming Komodo editor. Each time the engine advanced to process the next step, we would get a callback that included vital information such as the location in the regex string and the target string.

Today, there are numerous excellent tools like this on the web. Back in 2000, it was dark magic and so much fun to work on.
Drain the funds before the creditors get to them.
Yes, exactly. The liabilities number includes all on-exchange customer deposits and funds, which it should be theoretically possible to redeem in full at any time.
Fractional reserves exist in finance and are held in various assets that can be hedged and also redeemed. Based on the liabilities that FTX revealed like funding Alameda for their investments in un-hegable bets like “Donald Trump losing” is not normal where they could never get those funds back if there was a bank run.

Paperview
I dream of owning two homes: one on the central coast of California somewhere between Santa Cruz and Santa Barbara, and one in Japan, ideally in either one of the western districts of Tokyo (like the Meguro or Setagaya wards) or in the Kanagawa Prefecture. As a US citizen my primary residence would be in California, but I’d go to Japan regularly. For contrast, I love the California Central Coast for its tranquility and its relative lack of drama, but at the same time I love Tokyo’s vitality and sheer convenience.

I’d like to be able to work as a computer scientist doing research based on my interests. I’d also like to be able to work on open source projects. I also want to occasionally teach part-time at a university, teaching courses in programming languages, AI, and operating systems. I’d like to do these things in such a way where there are no “publish-or-perish” pressures.

Right now I’m figuring out how to make this happen before I get too old to enjoy it; I’m in my early 30s.
There isn't zero regulation. An online businesses is subject to the laws of its customers' countries. And the laws may not be up to date enough for some new scams, but they aren't completely naive. For example ponzi schemes are illegal. If they were doing that the govt will go after them (sooner or later...). A quick google search will net you plenty of stories about prosecutions.
There is some hurry. Miners and nodes could theoretically update and refuse transactions that come from these wallets.

There would have to be enough of them doing this to prevent the transactions from getting through, which is far from guaranteed, but this is of the sort of scale that it could gain the required support.
"Currently, all U.S. banks are subject to a balance sheet leverage ratio, which requires them to maintain a ratio of tier 1 capital to balance sheet assets at a minimum level of 4%. In order to be well-capitalized, banks must achieve a 5% minimum leverage ratio"

So FTX had an 11% leverage ratio, pretty good.
The one thing I can see (as a SWE) is if you want to be able to fully box-off your work-life balance.

For my first few years of WFH, my office was my bedroom, so I just threw a KVM between my home PC and the work laptop and shared monitors and input devices. I eventually set up a standalone office.
> Tailwind and CSS in JS libraries that pre-compile to Atomic CSS solve the problems of bloated CSS files full of duplicated rules.

> With Atomic CSS, the growth of CSS is tied to the number of unique styles used, not the amount of features developers are shipping.

> For example, it’s common to reuse certain properties like flex everywhere. Rather than have these duplicated in stylesheets under different class names, we only pay that cost once. This is true for each property/value combination.

This is true in theory and when you stick to the very basic stateless utility classes. Check the CSS of any larger site using Tailwind and search for a CSS rule, you will see things like

.opacity-100 {
opacity:1
}
.hover\:opacity-100:hover {
opacity:1
}
.group\:focus-within .group-focus-within\:opacity-100 {
opacity:1
}

and that's not counting media queries, dark mode, etc. In practice, the global CSS file that you load for every single page does grow for every feature you ship, since you use more of Tailwind.
Setting aside arguments about whether it actually fixes the moral hazard issues with fractional reserve banking, banks also have FDIC deposit insurance and there is an understanding of the possibility of loss of funds which exceed the insurance limit.
Oh it had nothing to do with principle. My manager, the CTO was the best manager I ever had. He was new to the company when I was hired in 2018 and they were bringing development in house from a contracting shop and he tapped me to lead cloud initiatives even though he knew I didn’t know anything about cloud.

I would have left anyway over the next year. By the time the paycut came, I had already basically purposely “put myself out of job”. I trained other coworkers. Put processes in place and I had nothing left to do but normal CRUD development.

They were pivoting to selling various microservices to large health care providers and he wanted to move away from VMs to Fargate (serverless Docker) and Lambda along with some other projects.

He was a great mentor and he was very straightforward and unapologetically blunt (after we got to know each other).

3 months after I left, they gave everyone additional equity to make up for the paycut and they restored everything a month later.

When they got bought out six months later for 10x, everyone made a decent amount of money from $50K - $200K (we aren’t talking a tech hub), the founders gave everyone bonuses and they reached out to someone who had been there for years and who had left and gave them an extra “thank you” bonus.

I would have stayed, but a recruiter from Amazon Retail reached out to me about an SDE position. I didn’t want to be an SWE at any large company, I didn’t want to relocate, and I wasn’t about to spend months “grinding LeetCode”.

We kept talking and she suggested I apply for a fully remote position at AWS ProServe as a consultant specializing in enterprise app dev + “devOps”.

It was too good of opportunity to pass up.

The rest of the story with the startup. Soon after it got acquired, the CTO left and most of the best employees went with him to a new startup in the same space.

If I were working anywhere else and he could afford me, I would definitely work with him again. I still give him free advice from time to time when he calls and we meet for lunch every now and then.

Well, he did mention he had tried a few different languages, so maybe they're actually looking for a some of these suggestions?
There are a lot of dialects because its core is one of the easiest programming languages to understand and implement, and once implemented, it's one of the easiest languages to extend. That's all there is to it, pretty much.

Anyone who is interested in the design of programming languages will find it easy to make their own Lisp and try out any ideas that seem congenial to them. The natural and obvious consequence is a lot of Lisps.

> by road

Roman roads were high tech for the era and those were still pretty bumpy. A modern road is much more efficient. Bouncing over uneven terrain not only damages the products and veg it also causes wear and tear on the cart, the animals, and the driver.

Also doubling isn’t a bad thing for the first couple of multiples. Each doubling increases the supply by a factor of four on open terrain. It’s no accident that big cities are at the confluence of trade routes. Up in the mountains creates a funnel that raises the average cost and lowers the reliability of everything too much. It’s like you’ve blockaded yourself.
> Carmack explains how if would be possible to have tear free, framerate level updates "if only" people would upgrade to 8MB of video ram and 100MB/sec busses.

With 1280x1024x8@75Hz and a single blit per frame. For 32-bit colour like you have virtually everywhere these days, multiply that bandwidth by four; for a 2560x1600 screen like the one I’m writing this on, multiply further by three and a bit; (admittedly,) for 60Hz instead of 75Hz, multiply by 4/5.

All in all, this laptop I’m sitting before needs a gigabyte per second to just barely sustain one blit per frame. And it needs a full framebuffer of video RAM (15M bytes) for the pretty security-message crossfade, probably at least a couple framebuffers per tab for the tiled renderer in the browser, something in that ballpark so that I can smoothly scroll through a PDF I’m reading and not wait for it to rasterize... If I open a Chinese webpage, how much video RAM for the subpixel-positioned glyph cache, I wonder? And remember, none of that OpenGL floating-point-colour nonsense, that would multiply both memory and bandwidth by three again.

Carmack could have probably squeezed a smooth UI into a 8M main + 8M (16M?) video RAM, 100 MB/s machine at 800x600, if the UI you wanted was the one from 1995. And that would honestly be grand, I’d be happy to see that on a 2005-specced machine, even. But let’s not kid ourselves—we do in fact demand much more from our computers now than we did then.
If 10-15% of employees are "low performers" for their roles, you'd expect 10-15% of CEOs to themselves be low-performers for the CEO role. And so, in 10-15% of these layoffs you'd expect to see the CEO get replaced.
hahaha I like it :D
I am not totally ignorant of this subject, but I'd be concerned about the unknowns involved in messing around with the very long term coevolution of gut biomes with particular diets, groups of people, and factors we might not know about yet. For one example, I don't believe that that gut viromes, the ecosystem of viruses that infect the gut biome bacteria, are very well understood.

There is real wisdom in "do no harm" as a principle. It would be a lot better for most people to lose weight, eat more fruits and vegetables, spend more time outdoors, and sleep more before they consider a prophylactic fecal transplant.
Well this is the problem, USENET, like Activity pub was a PROTOCOL not a platform.

Eternal September lead the the collapse of USENET largely because no company could control it, thus it got harder and harder to manage / control in a way the normies wanted, and governments wanted.

USENET today is primary binary transfers, i.e the high seas of the internet.

It is not largely a communications system anymore.

We are already seeing that as people leaving Twitter, the nice left censored authoritarian bubble and find out that the wider internet is not left censored authoritarian so they are demanding every growing block lists of servers attempting to make a little walled garden for Activity Pub, which undermines the entire purpose of federated/ distributed protocols
