The issue is that the entire concept and sector is all scams and gambling. Every part of it, every nook and cranny.

There are literally no exceptions to this rule and no core kernel of something important and enduring that will remain when this all blows over.

Maybe some visible remnants will be visible here and there, in the sense that there’s still people that enjoy planting tulips now and then.

But really there’s nothing under it all, there’s no productive enterprise that has ever been created by the entire sector.

This isn’t just a rant it’s a direct answer to your question. The reason nobody cares about Tether, specifically, is because it’s not really notably distinguishable from any other part of the crypto “industry” in any meaningful way.

Nobody wants to believe it but it’s happening at a pretty predictable pace and by now the inflection point has clearly passed. It’s all going to zero and many key players are going to jail.

Some people who were savvy like the Coinbase guys will walk away permanently rich. Every dollar involved in making people rich from crypto, of course, will have come from those who lost money to this ultimately fraudulent craze, as at no time has anything of enduring value been created.

Every single one.

I can understand this argument. However, at the same time, S-expressions do allow for rather expressive function names not usually available in other languages. various arrows, question and other punctuation makes, etc. can make for some nice function names.

I do agree with the sentiment to some degree though that it all looks the same. In an aesthetic sense, there is something I do like about it though.

Being a fan of both ML and Scheme, I have actually been experimenting with a syntax that is a hybrid of the two. I’m still in the experimentation phase, but it’s an interesting exercise.

This article simultaneously demands that we need to NOT abandon the old system of large scale clinical trials, and not go towards faster means of approving drugs, while at the same time lamenting that CAR-T remains unapproved for certain cancers large scale trials have shown it to not be sufficiently effective. It says that we need to "make trials better" while not proposing any means to do that. What a waste of time.
1. I'm not sure why you're talking about fraud in markets, when that's not what happened here. This isn't a case of market participant A ripping market participant B off, it's some insider abusing his trust to enrich himself.

2. You talk about markets "can afford to compensate people [...] for small crime", but I see no reason why that would be applicable to exchanges. Given that both sides of a trade has to put up money before they can make the trade, the risk that either side can commit any sort of fraud/crime is virtually zero. You can still get hacked/scammed by the exchange itself, I'm not aware of any crypto privacy advocates who think that centralized exchanges should have the right to be anonymous.

3. You talk as if the "utopian future" is vaporware or something, but it does exist in the form of decentralized exchanges. Sure, they're not as good as centralized exchanges when it comes to fees/spreads/execution time, but they do exist and allow you to transact anonymously.
Sure, we're on the same page, I'm just saying that the actual heist here could, from a technical point of view, been executed at Bank of America as well. (Although sneaking a backdoor in there and getting money out would be orders of magnitude harder.)

In Silicon Valley, work often determines much of your social life and most of your social status, and you also depend on the company for health insurance.

So losing your job isn't just losing your livelihood - it affects social life, social standing, and even health.

When people ask "what do you do?" they are also asking for your professional affiliation and social status.

It's considered shameful to lose your job or be unemployed, which can certainly affect your mental and emotional health as well as social relationships.
First of all, it's not just the voltage that is dangerous. Though, higher voltage means the arc is more probable, of course. A foam cover is a poor insulator, but at least it helps keeping the minimal distance from the conductive microphone grill. In this case we're talking mostly about avoiding unpleasant shocks, not some life-endangering situations.

That might turn out to be the case, but we just don't know. Notably, there are some industrial processes that use fossil fuels directly and can't be trivially swapped out for grid power. Those processes might not be possible after a certain point. However, we've had fossil fuels for the entire history of industrial production, so there hasn't been pressure to invent other techniques.

> Then after the final interview (which seemed to have gone very well), I got an email saying "The role has been filled."

I would guess that one of the many people you interviewed with decided they didn't like you. That would shut down the whole process and give you no meaningful explanation. I think it's an example of how hiring is really quite bad, hard and bears little relationship to performance.

And anyway you can search for users by substring and then follow them and harass them.

I think the restriction is on searching for posts by substring of content.
Maybe my mistake was trying to cook them into the stew. But you have to eat quite a bit to get a significant amount of protein — about six tablespoons for 20 grams. So if you just put a spoonful into a salad I'm sure it's fine, but it's not functioning as a source of macronutrients. For comparison, poppyseeds are, in principle, a great source of calcium, but you can't use them that way.

Pressurization has gotten better over the years. Modern planes generally pressurize (or depressurize, more accurately. Sooner and slower. Like, imagine starting to transistion to the target pressure - usually equivalent to 6-8000ft, over time, starting as soon as the door is closed for pushback, instead of only adjusting during the climb.
The goal is not necessarily to minimize number of drug users, it is to prevent people dying from overdoses (or other secondary issues like diseases), either because they have to hide their drug use or because there is no access to "safe" drugs (the drug your expecting, consumed in a sanitary way). Also, decriminalization can remove organized crime, violence, and other criminal activity from the equation, and make it less complicated to address drug abuse. The idea that it's just about reducing "addicts" is flawed. Decriminalization doesn't mean society thinks drug use is good, it's just the least bad option.
Are you joking? Just visit nearest building market (supermarket) and ask, how large pressure could withstand their tubes, furniture, etc.

You can do (2) if you can tolerate false positives. For example, if a symbol isn't referenced literally elsewhere in the binary, consider it unused, but add a configuration option to keep it in case it is referenced dynamically. The JVM world has been doing this for years with ProGuard.

Oh, it's way more interesting than that. Each dimension is linear. Any two dimensions form a grid. There are infinitely many orthogonal directions along which you can go an arbitrary distance.

In the complete graph, any two points are equidistant. It's rather boring.

Also, (and you probably couldn't pay a physicist to care about this, but) you can have an infinite complete graph, with countably infinite nodes and edges. The infinite dimensional grid, on the other hand, has uncountably infinite nodes and edges even if the dimensions are countably infinite.

Rimworld is a very nice base building game, which gained a enormous amount of popularity from the get go due to the similarities to another quite popular game (Dwarf Fortress) and excellent game design (to make the game somewhat challenging every game you play is supervised by a AI director which more or less does the same thing as the one in L4D). The game as also expanded tremendously as of now due to three DLC packages which add a lot of fun gameplay:

- Nobility (Royalty)

- Belief systems (Ideology)

- Pregnancy, biotech and genetic modification (Biotech)

The game also has a pretty big modding community.

If you like sims you def are going to love it.

Medicine has problems that aren't even spelled right theoretically. EHR portability is just a symptom of that issue.

Clever solutions like MYCIN, a decision tree mapping symptoms and conditions to possible diagnoses, are largely ignored because it is more profitable to maintain a facade and saddle increasingly siloed clinicians with debt.
Skeletal animation is supported in the renderer, and there is a (very basic) implementation of an animation player available, but more complex animation (blending, state machines, masking, IK, etc.) is currently still in the design phase right now.

Terrain and collision detection are currently reliant on a third party ecosystem integration with rapier via bevy_rapier. It may be a while before Bevy has a native physics system.

Text rendering is fully supported, and IMO is significantly better looking than anything Unity currently offers by default, though that might not be a particularly high bar, haha.

Prebuilt UI elements are in the works but not upstreamed in any way right now. The UI system has a lot of flexbox-esque primitives that currently lack a way to bind it to gameplay elements. This is a very active area of development though, given that the goal is to dogfood these UI elements for the engine's editor.
Perhaps b/c they are usually neglected just like kids from broken families not b/c they are born from an artificial woomb.
I am not on the market as a software developer anymore.

I completely shifted my mindset since closing off my own company and stared working as an UX designer.

Since I am considered “old” (hello, ageism) in the UX design profession, I don't expect someone to judge me by my proven experience and accomplishments of the past.

I don't give my honest opinion on the given issue. I ask more follow-up questions and let others give the direction of the solution.

Furthermore, I consider my self a facilitator of processes, my focus is on a communication and documentation part of the work. The other stuff (actual design work) is somewhat automatic.

The tricky part is how one navigates the landscape of responsibility, but adaptation to a political point of view is a must.

Actually, I found out that my employers are not paying me to deliver good UX for their users.

They are paying me to visualize and validate their own biases and let them freely contradict themselves.

In short, I UX'ed the hell out of the employment process.
And when the users (company, PM, teams) are happy everything is fine.:)

What’s the SML equivalent of the JVM?
> expressive function names

Yes, but those are effectively library conventions, not fixed properties of the language. Maybe more importantly, names aren’t a structural construct, like a for loop or a class definition. And, arguably, you can have similar syntax in other languages, like e.g. `!` in Rust or the type sigils ($, @) in Perl, except that here you can be sure of their semantics.

> I worked for an investment company that lost a lot of money once

Losing money is not SBF’s problem.

Stealing customer assets to cover for it, and then losing those, too, is.

And tweeting through it, providing confessions to that that will greatly complicate any defense.
Additionally, for let specifically, it’s much nicer of a diff to explicitly annotate types vs having them inferred.

int x = 5;
auto x = 5;

vs

let x: i32 = 5;
let x = 5;

(This is one part the practical impact of a lot of your comment is about, of course, just also adding this little bit to make it concrete.)
Congrats on the new release!

In the near future I want to begin work on a server-side renderer (3D scene -> video) and a web-based scene editor. Would Bevy deployed as WASM be a reasonable choice for this?

> You owe the bank $1M it's your problem, you owe the bank $100M it's their problem and if the bank owes everyone $400B it's the government's problem. Certainly not fair, but pragmatic.

Yes, except that the government has the powers (and had them in 2008) to handle the situation.

> btw, based on your reply I think our positions are probably much closer together than they are far apart.

Agreed.

> I want Glass-Steagall back.

Glass-Steagall was explicitly repealed to allow the merger of Citicorp and Travelers Group which created Citigroup.

Robert Rubin, Clinton's treasury secretary, who promoted for the repeal, joined Citi immediately after leaving government and served as chairmen. He made around $140 million until he had to resign because of the financial crisis.

Citi was too big, too connected, and too corrupt. As long as it so large, it will not be effectively regulated, and it will be bailed out again and again.

If there is no effective regulation, and no legal sanctions, management has a strong financial incentives to take actions that are likely to bankrupt the bank.

There's a great paper about it by two winners of the Nobel Memory Prize in Economic Science. It is based on the lessons of the Savings & Loan crisis.

I’m working on this, but for 3D.

The essential pieces you may be interested in:

- put all UI in shadow dom under the root, so inspector is exactly the html being edited

- use the file system access api to allow local writeback to file system while editing

- when on the web, connect to GitHub or via WebDAV to write back to origin while editing

- collaborate via crdts over webrtc. I wrote a cheap/free serverless signaling system for this: https://github.com/gfodor/p2pcf - you can use y.js to sync the document DOM

DM me on Twitter if you want to Collab - this particular thread is something I’m going to be pushing hard on but not for 2D HTML, but 3D HTML. Spatial 3D documents in HTML is likely going to be a major thing with the arrival of WebXR and spatial computing.

I Think the reason older folks resist climate change is 3-fold:

- It’s scary

- It requires a substantial change in lifestyle

- It has become attached to politics, (particularly liberal, progressive politics) which makes it a representation of the “other”.

That aside, there is something to be said about seeing the predictions of your youth fizzle out. On the other hand, we have a tendency to romanticize the party and reframe ourselves relative to it. We remember things differently than they were.
All this "may"ing and "might"ing is creating noise in an already noisy news cycle.

We've been using words like, "may" and "might" in reporting scientific trends for a while now. There ought to be a tracker that does backtesting of such reports and re-reports the findings as, "yup, definitely happening".

It’s always humorous how HN hates a proposition which was basically a conservative backlash to big government growth.

wiki: 71% of Republicans, 55% of Democrats, and 61% of independents; 54% of people age 18 to 34, 52% of people age 35 to 54, and 66% of people 55 and older; 65% of homeowners and 50% of renters.

Everyone in utopia TX would vote for this prop today.
At least in the USA, neither of the two big political parties are interested in solving the climate issue. It's way too good for getting votes to ever be solved.

Same reason Congress never passed a law explicitly legalizing abortion. It was too good a wedge issue.
I do not own an Air Quality Egg or an Aranet so I cannot really comment on both.

In general most of the low cost monitors use similar sensor modules, e.g. Plantower for PM, Sensirion for TVOCs etc. What is important to ensure that the CO2 sensor is an NDIR or photo accoustic and not using estimated CO2 via a TVOC sensor that is very inaccurate.

I would start measuring PM, CO2 and TVOCs in the house to first understand more about how well the HVAC system works. Then optimize it for low CO2 and PM. This should then flush out most of the internal pollution sources as well.
Can anyone explain how an “NFT domain” compares to Namecoin?

I’m very interested in decentralised and censorship resistant hosting but it really feels like very little progress has been made here. It still seems like the best setup is a tor hidden service. It’s not decentralised but it’s a whole lot more practical and private from what I can see.

I assume IPFS is using some kind of torrent like DHT where it’s trivial to see what files people are accessing.

From my perspective, completely decentralised hosting is not actually very important. A website typically has a central owner who adds content and maintains it, they can often also host some software on a computer somewhere. The hard part is the transport between the owner and the user.

As we have seen, networking infrastructure is widely weaponised for censorship. Tor services avoid this but the accessibility massively drops so you won’t have much of a user base if you rely on tor.
Software is never finished... keep moving it forward when you can!
