Liquidity is so low that a whale can easily manipulate it. IE. Suppose someone is shorting FTT. A whale can pump up the price to liquidate the short.

Do not try to short FTT even though it's effectively a dead token.

The only thing that I claim is that hartator wrote about the future holding more data than the present and past and it’s unclear what that would mean in a deterministic universe represented by a pure quantum state under unitary evolution.

What is data? How do you establish -given a wave function- the amount of data that it holds? What are you claiming exactly?
I don't know whether it was a news piece or a documentary, but it was on the life of Spotify founder. In that piece it was mentioned that Spotify did use their own already available music collection to populate the service with content. Once the service got little traction, they started making deals with indies and labels. The market was ripe for this because the music industry saw what was coming down the road after the Napster shock.

Yes an no. When there was no electronic means of transactions, what banks lent out was indeed mostly customers' deposit plus their own assets.

Things became interesting when electronic transactions came into play. Banks virtually no longer have to payout any cash when they issue a loan to a client as they now only need to change two numbers: credit their asset account, and debit loan customer's cash account. So unless there were transactions paying out to another bank, there were no cash movements. So the minimum cash the bank should keep in their operation accounts is just the difference of the transactions paying out and those receiving in.

But does that mean customers' deposits are not significant to the banks? Nope. Banks actually lend out much more than their customers' deposits. How much can they lend out is basicly the deposit amount divided by the reserve rate, e.g. 20%.
I agree, and IDK why it is so hard to talk clearly about finance. Here is how I understand what's been said (not an expert):

When a bank pays a loan out to its lender, it must have capital (valuable assets actually owned by the bank) to back it up. But these "assets" are not always easy or possible to liquidate, or turn into cash. This is where the other person's deposit comes it. They use the deposits for "cash" instead of liquidating the assets they own in order to pay out the loan. This is what is meant by providing liquidity.

Technically, the bank's own assets can be considered to be backing the loan, but the long-and-short of it is that YES, bank's do use the cash from their deposits to make loans, and that is why there is no money available when the bank run happens.

Disclaimer: this is my interpretation of what others on this thread are saying. I don't actually know if this is right or wrong
Oh, oh dear. Um, that was sarcasm. I clearly don't think people should be looking for get rich schemes, on yt or otherwise. It was aimed at the people that think day trading, lottery tickets, or otherwise longshots are a logical response to a hostile market.

Its hard to think of any scam that isn't portrayed as "working out (for the (would be) rich)". Again, a good reason to be wary of such things.

I'm totally in favor of helping struggling folks, taking care of basic needs, etc (though I'm not sure laundered money is the culprit I'd offer). But lord maybe some reasoning skills would also do some wonders. Also, Christ, it pains me how often I think "if only I could sleep with myself stealing money from fools". Because I do know you're right, that's the psychology of why get rich schemes work...

For a while I reread William Langwiesche's 2003 article in The Atlantic* about Columbia's last flight[1] every year or so. I find it very easy to empathize with the insiders who actually understand all of the minutiae and imagine the frustration of dealing with outsiders who didn't understand any of the details or all the decision processes you and your team had already been through.

The point was that I didn't want to make the same mistakes, and I wanted to remind myself to be wary of "inside scoop" types of opinions, or placing too much weight on "reports from the frontlines", because I recognized that I was overly biased in this direction. Outsiders views, or fresh perspectives, as well as insights from a big picture also have value.

Every long gone institution or industry that now seems absurd with hindsight, also necessarily had some internal logic if it ever existed for decades.

Get tested for ADHD, even if you believe you might not have it.

I'm in my mid-30s and been somewhat successful at work but my pattern has always been that I could hyperfocus on some projects for days on end and suddenly I would be bored out of my mind and not able to focus for more than 20 minutes at a time.

I've blamed and shamed myself for years, thinking I was being lazy, that my work ethic sometimes was poor/lacking, that I could just force myself into not being in that state.

Now in my mid-30s after some years of therapy my therapist and I are uncovering that I very likely have ADHD. I don't want to be medicated, I know some terrible stories from close friends who have been medicated for more than a decade and even though it helped them somewhat the side-effects were no joke after so long. Even without medicine it's really helpful to understand why I behave like this, why I can't seem to muster the willpower that my peers and friends sometimes can to be focused for hours (with breaks).

I'm only learning now, after 30+ years of life why I'm like this, I don't wish on anyone to live this long shaming and blaming yourself for supposed failures because you don't fit the mold...

Even if you don't have ADHD try some therapy, you might uncover other reasons on why you might not be able to focus for long, there might be issues with perfectionism, fears, etc. that you are not completely aware of.

Hope you find some peace, I'm slowly getting it and it's awesome to lift this burden, even if slowly.

I like this, especially the first point. I would just like to point out that the "fired." part doesn't have to be a real threat, a perceived (or even subconscious) threat is sufficient to generate the effect.
I've done a similar thing myself when trying to test operations on a hierarchical database for my internal product.

Biggest difficulty for me was that some combinations of operations were illegal and I had to think about all the edge cases and filter them out, and this took a long time.

My SO works in hardware, and she says they always use a constraint solver to generate test cases / test vectors, and she never understood why this wasn't popular in software. I googled it a bit and found lots of academic papers but no concrete implementation.

I've also thought about generating test vectors using a generator based on Markov chains, I wrote about that here [0], based on this [1] submission.

I'm not familiar enough with either using constraint solvers to generate test cases, or Markov chains, to know if I'm talking nonsense here or is it just something that nobody thought to develop properly.

The charm of markdown is there are different flavours, you pick your favourite, and it can evolve independently of the web itself. Making browsers render markdown means markdown needs a single standard, or a standard of specifying standards and some kind of document type declaration, agreement by WHATWG and so on! For what? There are a lot of web publishing platforms for non technical authors. Free and paid. There are also simple programs to turn markdown into HTML. Uploading, hosting, DNS are much bigger barriers than HTML syntax anyway.

Twitter “blue check” scams: an incomplete dump of the first 48h
Bank runs are a problem in the sense that the bank has a short term liability but they have long term assets. This is called a maturity transformation.

If a bank does a transfer to another bank it will have to send its reserves which means it might have to borrow reserves from another bank or sell its long term assets to get enough reserves and that long term asset might worth a lot or worth very little depending on the difference between it's locked in interest rate and the current interest rate.

This is why banks sell their treasuries to the Fed, they have a long duration asset and a short term liability, so they give it to the Fed to get a short term asset.

I don't know what SBF is doing but maturity transformation is probably the riskiest thing you can do as a bank and it is very likely to break down eventually unless you have a central bank that spreads around the risk. From a purists perspective banks should only use certificates of deposits to ensure that their liability duration is longer than their asset duration. Of course that is difficult in practice because nobody is buying CDs nowadays.

The difference between a bank run on the licensed banking system and a crypto exchange is that the licensed banking system has a lot of experience with these types of problems meanwhile in the cryptospace you ask your neighbor and hope he doesn't shrug.
Exact same experience here to the point where I wasn’t sure if we worked together haha
AdBlue shortage threatens EU supply chains
There is at least some pathogen->asthma correlation.

One of the things that doctors did was compare asthma rates between people who were already working from home to asthma rates of people who suddenly got thrown home due to Covid.

Asmtha went down more than expected in the people who suddenly got thrown home than in the folks who were already working from home. Since both groups faced roughly the same kind of environmental conditions (ie. pollution going down due to less driving), the excess decrease is posited to be purely due to pathogens.

Apparently, a not insignifcant chunk of asthma attacks are due to basically swimming around in continuous, low levels of pathogenic exposure.

It seems to me you're making the same terminology mistake, only shifted one layer back! You're expressing yourself as if the "too narrow metrics" were the goal in and of themselves. I would argue the metrics are never the goal -- the fuzzy intention they're proxying for is always the goal.

You’re not sincerely thinking that what _you_ see on google is indicative of the results _I_ (from another country and with obviously a very diverse search history) see, right?

If I google HCI and computing, the first “result” is one of those frames with info collected by Google, and a link to the Wikipedia page on… Human-Computer Interaction. The first actual page is “What is Human Computer Interaction?”.

HCI has been a thing way longer than whatever the thing your Google returns, and while it’s not a particularly unique acronym and could have been defined, I’d imagine is still more well-known to the average HN user than the other HCI (probably for good reason, since it’s more relatable).

Do you need to updated the parser though? I kind of thought SVG elements were implicitly namespaced. For example we have the two <a> tags. One HTMLElement <a> and another Element <a> with the namespace "http://www.w3.org/2000/svg". I don’t know of any meaningful difference between those two elements, except if you try to insert the former into an SVG DOM tree, then weird things might happen (though I haven’t tested it).
The title is a little bit click-baity, but also understandable when you've done (or rather: had to do) that sort of work on your own; the dirty practical side is that you're both a child and adult at the same time, and all the conflicts and discrepancies that stem from this fact are yours to suffer from and resolve.

There's both the need to tend to the needs of a 36-year-old person that physically and mentally exists, but there's also the need to tend to all the emotional needs of the person who was stunted and prevented from proper emotional growth.

This can make for some really big discrepancies in practice, as described in the article, and results in additional trobule when you need to explain the matter to other people who have not encountered that sort of developmental issues in their lives. Which, I assume, this article attempts at, and for that, as someone who travelled that path on his own, I'm deeply glad.

RFC 7763 does not define Markdown in any way. It acknowledges both the popularity and messiness of the Markdown family of syntaxes, registers a so-broad-as-to-be-nearly-useless media type for the family, and establishes a registry of variants (https://www.iana.org/assignments/markdown-variants/markdown-...).

Critically here, it does not recognise Markdown as a usable markup format in its own right. Only as a family of often ill-defined syntaxes that may be tolerably readable in raw form, and with the correct, unspecified tools may be converted to a formal markup language like HTML.

“Markdown” is utterly unsuitable as a publishing format. It’s designed as a writing format.
I second that, and wholeheartedly recommend the official documentation. It might not be the best entry point, but it is a good reference throughout.

In particular, understanding the repo tool, manifests, etc. is also quite necessary to get started.

Obviously, there is a lot more to working on custom ROMs than that. I've seen a few resources mentioned in other threads that seem great for that.
It seems that the problem is shaming oneself. What utility does shaming oneself gives to those who don't have ADHD?
> I mean, does somebody really compose text in html?!

Yes.

I use HTML the way people use markdown: as an open, easy to read, easy to write, plain text format for taking notes, writing articles, etc.

I find this quite intuitive and easy – partly because I’m an old-school web-developer from days of yore and I have HTML deeply internalised; partly because I use the abbreviated version of HTML noted above; and partly because I use a VIM plugin called Emmet which allows you to construct complex HTML fragments with a basic shorthand.

The reason why I use HTML instead of markdown is threefold.

* The first is that simple HTML, written with a little care, is readable as-is, and requires no transformation to see it looking pretty (just open in a browser). Markdown requires pandoc to turn it into something else.

* The second is that it is a semantically rich language, full of useful tags for expressing document structure and context for words and sentences. I find Markdown really confining.

* The third reason is that, if I take the care to fill in the basic author/keyword/desc meta-tags I can run scripts over my directories looking for and indexing things. Who cares Search Engines don’t use some of those tags anymore. I do.

Possibly they’re not entirely compelling reasons for anyone else to adopt HTML over markdown, but they work for me.
I thought yours is automated too. How do you do it manually? Go through various airline websites daily to see what they've got to offer?
I agree that we should have some diversity in our rich text terminal systems, however I think that markdown is significantly close to the tree(html) that it does not matter much, my candidate is postscript. this is only half a joke, What I would really like to see is diversity in our client side scripting system.

The elevator proposal goes something like this. restructure the browser to expose a virtual machine, then let us do things like (script lang="https://gcc.org/gcc8")...(/script) or (script lang="https://rust-lang.org/165/wvm") or lang="https://python.org/11/wvm", etc, etc. The way we are stuck on javascript is kind of sad.
