Ah. That doesn't solve it for non-music videos, I assume? Anyway, from some of the many updates in the original article, it seems they want to bring it back after fixing some technical issues, and presumably for prioritization reasons, are encouraging people who care about this to submit feedback. Not as bad as we feared.
Do you have some advice for when someone has a severe panic attack? Where should that be "pipelined"? Not expecting an answer.
Why bother with proof of work or proof of stake mechanisms if you want political regulation? In that case, you might as well empower a state's central bank to develop a payment mechanism, and task them with ensuring fairness and enforcing laws around taxes, illegal activity, etc.
They don’t even need this. If they brought back whatever algorithm magic they were doing in 2015 they’d pick up a massive boost in engagement. They won’t though since they’re too busy making the world safe for democracy.

I have reproduced your results. It looks like Android made the move to using Arimo for Arial to using Roboto fairly recently; the Arial trick worked with my older 2017/2018 Android smart phone. Unfortunate too; there is no longer any universal font stack which preserves metrics. The only option now to preserve metrics is to have users download a fairly large .woff/.woff2 font.

Large is relative; the 116,472 bytes my font stack needs has five fonts: Roman, bold, italic, sans serif bold, and sans serif bold small caps. Mind you, this only supports English and Spanish, but it does have smart quotes, an em dash, and other typographic characters: “”‘’— etc.

Then again, 116,472 bytes is a drop in the bucket in an era when people by and large consume video content online.
Trump (or someone Trump was smart enough to listen to) realized that the same strategies that work for celebrity PR also work for political PR. Dogma in political circles had long been that you want to try to piss off as few people as possible and be palatable to as wide an audience as possible. But in hollywood gossip you want to be constantly involved in some scandal or feud - it doesn't matter what absurd position you take, people will still join your side. It's the exact same mental pathway that makes people very invested in their local sports team - sure you've never met these people and victory has no practical value to you whatsoever, but they are your team, your tribe, so you care. Trump spent years using these tactics to maintain his standing as a C-tier celebrity and eventually applied them to politics where they worked spectacularly.

He plays the part of a buffoon, but if you pay attention to his oratory there are numerous clever strategies employed - he always focusses on one opponent at a time; he always gives his opponents simple, diminutive monikers that always use the first name which make him come off as simultaneously informal and superior; technical questions are met with machismo. In general all of his efforts work towards painting himself as an extremely confident individual who is stronger and more virile than his opponents and his policy positions are irrelevant. This might seem like a dumb strategy, but if you consider how a gorilla becomes leader of its troop, it does not make a well reasoned argument that it has the best policies and will improve the economy, it makes itself appear too formidable for any other contender to challenge. Our ape brains have evolved to join the side of the strongest and most virile alpha male. Trump's strategy exploits this pathway. That is not to say that he deliberately developed a strategy based on how apes compete for dominance, but rather he happened to adopt a strategy that just happened to be effective, and he executed it well.

Trump's apparent lack of intelligence also served him well as the political establishment not only did not understand how to counter his strategy, but didn't even recognize the strategy until it was too late. They played right into his hands, frequently lampooning his positions and thus inadvertently giving him a far bigger audience. They tried to paint him as divisive and brash, not realizing that's exactly what people wanted. They debated him with traditional political rhetoric which came off as impotent and disingenuous. They pounced on every scandal which desensitized people to outrage.

While I personally believe that Corey Lewandowski was the real brains behind the operation and as stated the other contenders made serious blunders, the fact that in a few years a man with the catchphrase "You're fired!" could completely submit half the country's political spectrum to his will and retain that influence after two impeachment attempts and a lost election indicates an exceptional ability to play the game.
there are tons, but here's one:

It's similar to the situation with credit cards. There is a whole industry related to working around the problem of constantly disclosing the secrets, such as refunding stolen funds.

Likewise we have had to rely on banks to control digital money since we did not have a good alternative. And now there are many regulations and compliance officers etc. dedicated to preventing people from cheating, stealing, or irresponsibly using customer funds.

But at the core level the problem is that these the bank ledgers are secret, difficult to verify or connect together for tracing purposes. Cryptocurrency means using math and computer science to solve these types of problems in a holistic way.

Like everything else, people have abused this technology (such as using it to sell services that are antithetical to the core concept). But that doesn't mean they aren't important advances.
I still remember this article, and so many more:

Thank you for sharing this. I’ve been looking for useful dosing data for years and haven’t found any.

Do you have any references for the dosing data that you’ve mentioned?
There was one French artist that made a comic with 2 characters once, saying:

- computers are amazing, they can calculate 20 millions operation every second, with only one mistake every 10 million of operations

- 2 mistakes a second, you call that progress?

Today, the fun part is, the human unreliability is now a small part of a big automated chain that have large, numerous and instant results. So if the excel file is not opened, and the calculations updated but the human, the rest of the system will work with stale values. And who knows what it will do to the cascade of events handling the billions of euros?

In fact, my client has a failsafe for that: a designated chain of people that are supposed to take over if one cannot do their task, for each critical task.
In my 20-30s, I was a long distance cyclist which required a high carb diet and I had persistent belly fat. Now I primarily lift weights and eat a high protein diet and I have lost all the belly fat and as an added bonus, my posture is no longer perma-hunched.
> it's not like regulation saved them from being able to become insolvent.

It may have, in a way.

It's too early to tell, but it's possible that FTX's USA-based corporation ("FTX US") is still solvent. I believe it's the Bahamas-based entity that's in bankruptcy - the one that's in an offshore haven not subject to US regulations.

Edit: Looks like FTX US is bankrupt too, but still it may or may not be solvent.
Yeah, pretty sure both sides did those things to people, too...
Another question is, what takes the smartest mind?

Software engineers?

Medical doctors?

HFT?

Someone like Zuckerberg?

Some senator anywhere in the world?

Very hard to compare unless you have worked with all of them.

I frankly do not know, but I have severe doubts that its politicians.

Trump ran the worlds superpower and its still standing. His casinos did not all survive.

Makes me think.
I feel perfectly fine having my crypto stored on Coinbase’s end. As far as I know their business model makes perfect sense and they don’t take the weirdly big risks all of these falling dominoes have.

Also, if Coinbase goes bankrupt and takes everyone’s crypto with them I feel everything will crash to essentially 0.
It isn't that simple. Imagine if someone was so afraid of heights they won't walk on a sidewalk or climb a step stool. What if they tried to overcome it and couldn't? What if it affects their daily lives in a significantly negative way. What if they want to kill themselves?

Now replace "fear of heights" with any emotion. You're right, it's normal to be anxious(or angry, sad, etc) every so often but what if it's all the time?

In my opinion people like you aren't really ignorant, you know there are people who struggle intensely with emotions, you just don't have empathy. Since you don't suffer from constant anxiety you think others must not either, that's it's the same level as yours and they should overcome it.
How is it not a side effect? Side effects don't have to be negative.
"not requiring trust in any middle man"

And yet, we have these middlemen like Coinbase and what not. IN theory, decentralized currency is awesome. In practice, almost impossible. Novel idea for sure but it is time we admit that it cannot be implemented without middlemen.
There are companies that deliberately aim to serve as efficiently as possible. A lot of thought goes into communicating and delivering on that promise in everything these companies say and do. Letting people get what they want efficiently isn't that easy to do.

Bad branding is when there's a gap between what a brand promises and what you actually get. A store that promises efficient shopping but just puts stuff on shelves in wrapped packs of twelve, isn't really helping you efficiently get what you want. There are indeed a lot of examples of this (in all industries). But that's because these companies don't put any thought into what they want to be seen as and how they can (continuously) deliver on their promise.

So the promise itself (e.g. "no-frills supermarket" or "amazing shopping experience") is irrelevant, as long as the promise is fulfilled.

Whether there is a market for a promise is another thing altogether, but we're discussing whether positioning your store as the most efficient place to get what you want is detrimental to the brand, which it isn't, as long as you deliver on that promise.
The problem isn't novices stubbing their toes in their own homes. The problem is professional programmers beneath your skill level who are making those same old mistakes in government offices and major corporations.
In that case it is the strength of the imagined product.

It's also living dangerously: if the realized product comes close to what's imagined that's a very good play. If it doesn't it can be a ticket to the courtroom.

Also it's not an unusual situation for a first sale (particularly in consulting services) to be not at all reproducible and for there to be a long road to go from that to a playbook that works consistently.
I have seen Belka and Strelka. They are stuffed and on display in the Cosmonautics museum in Moscow.

I think we have already waited long enough with Twitter to conclude that the emperor, in this case, has no clothes.

Twitter isn't like SpaceX or Tesla: there aren't enormous government contracts, subsidies, or climate credits to prop up its finances. There is no plausible replacement for the advertising revenue his style of leadership is actively alienating, and there is a real risk that his strategy is exposing Twitter to enormous FTC sanctions given that they are already under a consent decree.

It is much more likely that he's deeply in over his head and floundering than it is that he has a master plan he can only execute by taking a blowtorch to Twitter's current business structure. How much worse does it have to get before that theory is validated?
Sorry to hijack the thread, CBD has been studied as potential adjuvant for cancer (here's one lab that did multiple studies https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=McAllister+SD&cauthor_...) allegedly due to inhibition of some genes that caused metastasis.

Yet some scientists have data on negative effects on chemotherapy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hG6lvLB0kQ

At best it would mean, antitumoral benefits can be gained before and after chemo, but I'm not sure. If anybody is knowledgeable on this topic, hit me up.
> As far as I know, it’s only one German court which once considered that an IP address was PII in a specific case. There is nothing in the law that explicitly says that IP addresses are PII.

CJEU ruled back in 2016 that IP address is personal data if provider has legal means to identify the person. This includes, as example that was given in the case, laws that give means for service provider to identify the users in the case of cyber attack by requesting help from other authorities.

This ruling is from before GDPR and relates to the older Data Protection Directive, but the relevant chapters are largely same (GDPR mostly increased the explicit scope).

Ruling: https://curia.europa.eu/juris/document/document.jsf?docid=18...

The "tl;dr" parts are 30 (the question) & 47-49.

Yeah that's the same thing and is probably how you'd actually implement it, but conceptually you can think of there being an undo and redo stack.
I just got my feet wet with an s7-1200 and I could not have imagined how horrible the programming of a PLC is. I spent a day just to get the plc send out UDP packets at 25Hz.

Apparently going above 10Hz is not really supported so you have to do silly tricks. I ended up running the send command on every tick, and running a time triggered cycle that toggles a bit at 50Hz and then using the rising edge of that bit to actually start the secretly async task of sending 20 bytes on the wire.

Son far I have learnt that async tasks are hidden, memory is measured in Kb, there is no guarantee for cycle time whatsoever, the programming model is really awkward, lots of config cannot be stored as code, version control is a bolted on nightmare, etc, etc.

Really makes me wonder what a PLC can do that an arduino/esp32/rp2040 can not. I'm really struggling to see the value other than that the hardware is reliable and "industrial".
> it's also the simplest explanation

Care to address all the reasons why I described this is unlikely?

> What's your explanation, then?

The simplest explanation is their official one that they want to protect smaller creators from brigading. The simplest cynical explanation is that they noticed from A/B tests that hiding dislikes increases user retention, which is more profitable for them. It's likely a mix of both.
For context, North America's current "standard" is CCS1, which is not the same as Europe, which uses CCS2. So North America already has its own weird plug. The Tesla plug is definitely better from a usability perspective. Very curious to see if there is a major technical advantage for one or the other.
> Long division makes my head hurt!

Well, I suspect it has something to do with writing out the process of 5772 / 37 as

156
______
37 | 5772
37
---
207
185
----

because it a) reverses the order of dividend and divisor for no good reason; b) the result goes up instead of to the right or down. Why not write it like this

5772 | 37
37 +----
--- 156
207

instead? In fact, I think we could replace the corner with just normal slash, "/", write = to the right of the divisor and spell out the digits of the result to the right of it; the substraction chain will still go down the page.
I have real trouble believing these are connected.
I don't think anyone is taking CBD to "escape painful emotions". A lot of people have CBD and don't even feel any difference. It's like saying your cup of coffee is some kind of desperate, drug-fueled escape. It's technically psychoactive but that kind of language is a huge stretch.
I'm not sure how much trouble having parents at stanford gets you out of. Maybe he can get a good lawyer but losing 10B of client funds is going to have a lot of wealthy people quite upset with him. I'd imagine anyway.
It is okay to do business with people you don't trust, but the crux is that pow/pos doesn't actually solve most of the substantive trust problems.

Eg: all of the weird supply chain nonsense around blockchain. You can keep a ledger and so on, but if there's corruption/theft in the physical warehouse then the ledger is worth only and exactly the disk space to which it's written. No amount of distributed consensus will change anything about the fact that Joe's cousin's friend heard about the shipment and stole 10% of the bulk good and replaced it with dirt to make the weights match.

The problem of doing business with people who you don't completely trust is very real. However, blockchain offers no solution (except and unless the thing you are trading is something that literally be placed on a blockchain, ie nothing physical and nothing that depends on a legal system to enforce).
It's good to hear stories of real-world systems. If you only look at blog posts you get the idea that everyone is doing everything perfectly, but of course it's not really like that at all...
Because they were pumping projects like XRP and XLM. They got rich dangling CBDC while knowing they never needed crypto to facilitate CBDC. Go look how many former fed and us govt adjacent ppl are in those institutions. The Crypto era was basically scammers from all areas of life finding their grift and attaching it to the bandwagon.
Crypto is incompatible with regulation and institutions because it was designed to be, and is consistently a part of the ethos espoused by pretty much all crypto players?

Literally, the first sentence in the Bitcoin whitepaper (which arguably kicked off 'crypto' as a thing) is "A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution".

I mean, seriously?
Do Tesla Superchargers even have this connector outside the US? Here all Teslas have CCS ports.
Bitcoin is neither banking or investing. It's a decentralized ledger.

I for one am not very excited to continue using the legacy systems with countless of middle men and entrenched rent seekers to extract the maximum they can out of the completely legal trades I do with other consenting individuals.
This idea of auctioning off someone's wife seemed (seems) unlikely to me in a medieval European context (since divorce was hard to come by).

What I found was actually weirder:

> In medieval Italy and southern France, it was common for the cedens to stand nude but for his shirt and strike a stone with his posterior ('vituperii lapis') while declaring 'cedo bonis'." The patent purpose of this ceremony was as much to satisfy the anger and frustration of creditors as to publicize the debtor's bankruptcy.

"Black people can't get IDs" is a racist trope promoted by the Democrats, famously exposed as ridiculous in this "on the street" video: https://youtube.com/watch?v=yW2LpFkVfYk
I believe superchargers are also being upgraded to add CCS1 in North America. Not widely rolled out yet, but I think there are at least some operational. I think some have two cables, but they have some kind of design called "magic dock" that allows a single cable to use either plug.

(Superchargers elsewhere use the relevant local standard.)
In this particular instance of fraud it's impossible to feel any sort of sympathy for the "victims". They absolutely deserve their losses.
By default people riding bicycles present an enormously lower risk profile and negligible externalities. I would not call the Idaho stop "special" treatment so much as I would call it an appropriate treatment for the type of vehicle that a bicycle is. And for the same reason I think it's nonsensical to hold people in bicycles to a higher standard on anything.

No noise pollution. No air pollution. Requires only a fraction of the amount of public space cars do for mobility and storage. Massively improved visibility of surroundings w/r/t cars. Smaller hitbox with lower weights and lower speeds, translating into a massively reduced momentum differential in a collision, plus way more runway and maneuverability for avoiding the collision to start with.

The Idaho Stop improves safety for cyclists because maintaining speed and visibility through a junction while slowing down cars mitigates the risk of a right hook. Telling everyone that they should categorically expect this behavior and that it is legal improves safety for everyone. I as a pedestrian and cyclist in DC expect Idaho stops from other bicycle users and act accordingly, the same way I expect pedestrians to jaywalk anywhere and anytime they want and act accordingly, and it's all quite safe.
yeah, i'm curious about this too. i've spoken to many high level folks in MSR (microsoft research) and they're all massive proponents of open-source software and unix and are as excited as i am about being able to open a 'native-ish' *nix terminal and do work.

in fact, i've got my win10 box set up for dev, and it's nearly identical to my mac! it wasn't 100% straightforward, and to get windowed emacs working from the cli took a little twiddling, but overall in less than a few hours i had everything running flawlessly. :)
They also have the stupid "Posts" section where content creators are supposed to post little blurbs and tweet like things. Totally superfluous but right there on your home page. Oh that's okay, there's an X to get rid of it.

"Hid for 30 days" Fucking excuse me? No, I told you I don't want this and you IGNORE ME? The insane level of arrogance and hubris to just IGNORE a direct user action like that....

Jazz bassist here. If I take my time from the band, everything slows down. I have to follow my own internal time clock in order to maintain a steady tempo. Or, the rhythm section has to do so as a unit.
I'm not privy to CCS design process, however several possibilities spring to mind:

- Backward compatibility: CCS is backward-compatible extension of J plug, and can't share AC and DC lines due to that.

- Higher safety margins in CCS

- CCS design by committee

- Better engineers at Tesla
Maybe that's Nim (or Nim2)?
I don't see anything new here (other than the name).

For those who don't know there are two charging connecters used for new electric cars in the US: Tesla (now called NACS and only used on Teslas) and CCS (used by everyone else). There's nothing here to indicate that that's changing and it feels like a move by Tesla to try turning around the momentum in a format war they're losing, even if they have a wider installed base today
Someone who isn't me occasionally found it funny to add a microdose of amphetamine to an energy drink at lunch. But, yeah, long-term side effects can easily overweight any additional focus. Plus I'd say that what you gain in focus you can easily lose in creativity (possibly more a side effect of sleep deprivation than substances). On the other hand, microdosing psychodelics can sometimes generate a lot of creative energy (some of it even remains long-term) at the price of being slightly distracted for a while on the days when you dose. Also, getting stoned after work but way before going to sleep can work well for getting enough rest and getting your mind of the need to be focused. In general, I'd recommend the last part plus good dinner to everyone and also be more chill, work is not the whole of your life, go kiss girls or something.
