There’s a balance being positive for effort vs giving everyone participation trophies. Sometimes tough but fair feedback is appropriate and needed.

Let’s not pretend that the vectors for “effort” and “impact” should be orthogonal.

Of note, nuclear power makes up relatively little of the power generation at 11 %. And it never made up much more than this.

Renewables jumped from 40 % in 2021 to 46 % in the first half of 2022 (see second link). That’s quite remarkable.
How to create an ecosystem, I'm not sure (although discussions like this on HN would go a long way).

But how to identify common patterns of problems? I think we just need to make an effort to zoom out and consider the phases of software development and infrastructure management we do, then look for similarities.

For example on the web development side, we routinely build web application foundations which require authentication (and less often but also authorization), state storage (database backends), and presentation layers. And yet, unless you start with something like Wordpress, there is little out there which provides a fundamental foundation with modular extensibility.

From a terminal perspective, we manage processes - start/pause/kill, we check states - active network connections, running processes, resource consumption levels, and we do ad-hoc data processing (piped unix commands, but typically in service of one of the previous two categories of needs).

In my work, I commonly use tmux to keep sessions open for different constant needs like psql shell, tail -f of logs, and other routine system management tasks. Most of these could be modules enabled and configured within a management system. I'm sure plenty of other people here have built their own scripts to do exactly this, especially for text or tiled UI systems.
Using Wikipedia as a barometer doesn’t always works. In this case it probably wouldn’t work even if SBF was much bigger than he was with EA.

There’s a middle ground. He wasn’t a prophet but he wasn’t nobody either. He was a leading non-academic figure/celeb of EA that didn’t get too much pushback.
How can anybody be surprised ?

The 2 biggest players - Tether and Binance are much worse and still very well alive. Both are several times bigger (on paper) than FTX.

Binance is already banned in most countries and without headquarters. Do anybody believes they have a proper gouvernance ?

Tether was proved to lie about it réserves several times, recently started publishing attestations about reserves - attestations that are obviously false - the numbers don’t really add up.

For all we know, both could disappear tomorrow with all the money and nobody would be able to say where and how it’s gone !

Only the derisive talk like yours has an apparent agenda, negating a valid conversation which has spent decades fighting against this form of apparently intentional ignorance.
If you have something to contribute to the content, provide content - else, if you're against agendas, maybe practice not interjecting with yours in such conversations when the adults have them.
That's at least one strong reason - VCs look at the person as much as the business.

Crypto was filled with sleazy car-salesman "investor" types at the time Alameda Research was looking for funding. So when in came someone with a Jane Street background and not a single flashy Ferrari in their driveway, the dam broke on VCs finally being able to pour money into the crypto space on a decent looking founder.
What I don't understand is why the New York Times is saying that the guy who created and ran this scheme is a great guy. They wrote an extremely flattering article about him and are even hosting an event where he's a prestigious speaker.

He seems like a grifter and responsible for presiding over the loss of a boatload of money for investors.

IDK about pro-level and such, but for normies, it's been my experience that knowing levels really well is way more important than reflexes or any of that. Learning the right "flow" for movement through a level such that you are usually looking the right way to line up a quick shot on the next target, and that you're rarely blindsided, is the key to at least mid-level success, and can narrow the gap between fast, young players and older ones (though of course having faster and/or more precise reactions is still an advantage).
> before SBF could bring regulation to the exchange and insulate himself.

If that was his endgame he would've had better record keeping and books. Regulation and paperwork go hand in hand, he was not set up for existing in a regulatory environment.
It only takes a few seconds of googling to see all kinds of studies that cnn is consumed by Democrats more often than Republicans, and one does not have to be a Republican to understand that, contrary to what you seem to be implying.
The grammar and vocabulary tend to require more syllables and letters (it uses a similar alphabet to English). So a book's printing might require 50% - 75% more pages.

But its not a universally longer language. As an example, prepositions are typically optional ('sa' being the generic preposition). So, texting from dual speakers (most Filipinos in the Philippines speak a local language, Filipino, and quite often English) mixes all three to become exceptionally compact. This intermixing from multiple domains for complete, almost fractal, symbology translates to a lot of domains. I've used code switching for system architecture and mathematical proofs approaches several times over the decades.

> Overwatch and its successor/patch Overwatch 2 have had less toxicity compared to other FPSes I've played. And I've almost never encountered a cheater.

I've played OW off and on for years now, and have only seen two cheaters. One was using wallhacks (could see them tracking me back and forth behind a wall on the killcam) and one had incredibly blatant headsnapping (Genji with the worlds fastest sensitivity turning 180 degrees and landing a perfect headshot, repeatedly).

A pretty good track record. Unfortunately, the monetization in OW2 has put me off. Hopefully that gets fixed eventually.
The numbers are all over the place. Just an FYI, 10% in this context is APY or the return after letting it sit for a year. It's not 10% each transaction. I believe each cryptocurrency has their own fees & they're all very different. I think many are fixed fees, so the percentage varies depending on how large of a transaction you're doing.
> just making the point that the parent’s 160-170bpm is lower than what I’d expect his max to be

Just want to clarify, I mentioned 160-170 bpm as a regular workout I do where I do not feel anywhere near max (I have seen my heart rate get above 190 while running).

I was replying to this:

> For 80-85% of maximum pulse rate...

> If your lungs are burning and you're about to collapse after 30 seconds of activity the intensity is about right.

And saying that going at 160-170 (above 80-85% according to rule of thumb) for a prolonged period of time, I feel none of those symptoms.
I think we all need a bit of stabilitea in the modern world. Good thing it's iced tea though; as we all know, proper tea is theft.
I've learned more than once in my education and career to never underestimate how common (and weirdly useful sometimes) BCD is. Lots of random hardware still uses BCD for all sorts of strange timing tasks. The classic 7-segment display is easiest to program against in BCD as one bit of still somewhat ubiquitous types of hardware displays (though slowly disappearing as other screen formats have gotten cheaper).

There's a reason that BCD is in the middle of EBCDIC, IBM used BCD math so heavily in its decades of history that even their text encoding and punch cards were built around it. I've seen Enterprise software that still needs to read/write and sometimes even do math in BCD for compatibility with old Mainframe apps and software still written in COBOL.
I'm not sure if I should be in awe or feel sorry for going to that level of programming masochism in one's spare time. Probably both.
I fail to see how regulators made this worse. I see loud and clear how the absence of regulators made this worse, whatever SBF says.
That'd be a terrible place for them to try and build a business.

There's a limited number of games that have the audience to justify them going out and enabling that level of tight integration, and that audience tends to be too disjointed to make good customers.

Their current product targets the kind of audiences Discord seems to be angling for these days: niche groups outside of gaming looking for a digital meetup spot

In the primaries, to House candidates, many of whom lost their primaries to other Democrats. So there's a fair amount of bad blood between SBF and the Dems that actually made it to the election.

And on top of that, the GOP won the House. What sort of quid pro quo are you expecting him to get from the losing party, most of whom he pissed off?

SBF seems to have claimed that funds sent to Alameda were loans. Can he do that here too (even if accounting was sloppy)? If so how does that differ from what other financial institutions do, unless it is in the degree of leverage and risk they take on?

I don't trust any articles about how to play first-person shooters if they don't say "gibbed", "fragged", or "suck it down"
I don't know why it would feel like that. The EA community came out immediately and very forcefully in opposition to SBF and this perversion of EA philosophy since the FTX blow up [1] and they have been vocally opposed to shady practices in the service of EA since long before the last week.

FWIW, The Kalevala and Kalevipoeg, the national epic of Estonia, are linked in many ways (not surprising since we are neighboring countries, and the languages are extremely similar).

For example, Kalevipoeg swims to Finland over the gulf (50 miles) to find his kidnapped mother. He visits Ilmarine, the famous Finnish blacksmith -- also a character in Kalevala (Ilmarinen) --, wanting to buy a sword. A deal is made and followed by a feast -- during which, however, Kalevipoeg manages to fell the head of Ilmarine's son using that same sword. Ilmarine curses the special sword that took him 7 years to forge.

The opening strophe of Kalevipoeg also mentions Vanemuine, the god of music ("Lend me your zither, O Vanemuine!"), which is very probably derived from Väinamöinen. In Estonia, I suppose everybody knows this sentence; one may occasionally hear it paraphrased in spoken language. (So... If you come to Estonia to launch a startup, maybe greeting your companions with "Laena mulle kannelt, Vanemuine!" would break some ice... or, not.)

There's a great synopsis of Kalevipoeg on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalevipoeg

An English translation of Kalevipoeg (1895, by W.F. Kirby) is available on Sacred Texts as well. Not the actual 19,000+ verses, but an apparently very deep contextual explanation of the myths and surrounding culture. Great addition, even if you're actually interested in the Finnish Kalevala: https://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/hoe/index.htm

Really interesting to see something like this on the front page of HN!
I like Ivy's[0] approach by using keywords instead of symbols. I feel like something like APL should either be embedded in some host language, be given lots of functionality for I/O, or some static type system with rank polymorphism.

Yeah, I imagine having some sort of central authority (NHS) against which even private practitioners can compare themselves helps here. American healthcare is just chaos. I guess the closest thing here would be Medicaid/Medicare but even those are administered through private companies with variances in what is covered.

Also there's probably less resorting to suing in the UK since people whose doctors mess up can get the resulting problems treated. In the US, if a doctor fucks up and you need more treatment, it can bankrupt you and the only way to recoup the costs is to sue.

This is not wrong, physical wealth was indeed destroyed to make tokens of negligible* value to humans, but the meaning of OP's "wealth" is claims on real goods or services -- as in the houses bought by insiders a few weeks ago. Destroying the remainder of such claims is a real benefit to the world economy, reducing inflation of all legit currencies.

*negligible not zero, because some tiny slice of crypto transactions actually are done by useful workers in order to shield wages from kleptocratic regimes.
> An exchange can make money letting the customers trade different types of magic beans with each other.

An exchange that only does that won't have any customers, because they'll all be going to the ponzi-exchanges that pay out 8-12% APR if you buy and hold their shitcoin, or where the market makers piss away mountains of customer funds to tighten the spreads.

Now that I think of it, maybe the best way to reign all this madness in is to require that celebrity endorsers and sports arenas can only get paid a decade after they shill for an exchange/coin/etc.
"Poorly labeled account"? Like, he claims he forgot some liabilities existed? With about the same size as their customers' founds?

By itself, sure, but fidelity to x86 requires the PF calculation be made alongside a wide range of common instructions, which is a significant cost either for the microarchitecture or for an emulator.

The problem with theses is that this list was compiled from aggregated observations but individuals can go through any number or all in all different orders. Instead, it’s used as a prescriptive tool to help track where someone is in the grieving process, which is misguided.
What's the difference in practice between a JIT and an AOT compiler that supports optimizations based on runtime analysis (I forgot the technical term for that. Profile-guided optimization, maybe?)? I think the real issue is, the higher level the language, the harder it is to reason about what your code will actually get compiled down to. If you want predictable performance in Java, or any high-level language, in my experience you have to essentially write C code in that language, or at least get as close as possible. In Java, that usually means:

* sticking to primitives or arrays of primitives as much as possible. The language has no support for user-defined value types!

* Sticking to regular for loops, while loops, and other similar control structures.

* Using offheap memory via Unsafe or similar API when feasible.
You can see something somewhat similar here, though I don't think many people use high acceleration anymore.

For now i think only BTC and ETH will remain, and maybe some coin that is REALLY backed by actual USDs.

This is the first big clearout of the shitcoins and fraudcoins.

Crypto will never really die in my opinion, its just going through its infancy phase.

Real regulation is probably the thing that is the next on the horizon, in order to build up trust that was lost (or never there anyway).

Users must be sure that their coins can not all of a sudden be frozen by some shady exchange operating out of the Bahamas or wherever.

Crypto has to mature now.
> By absolute number, sure, but if you count "most" by weighting them with trading volume, then no.

That's crypto-speak for how to deny reality.

If the value of a USD dollar plummeted to $0.01, you don't pull out your wallet and say, "I have 100 of them, so no the value hasn't gone to almost nothing."
Factoid: the 8080 was used in the Space Invaders arcade game.
Prosper! That's the name of the place that took my poor money.

This reminds me, I think the exchanges also used that borrowed money to allow others to borrow against it to hedge or speculate on big moves. Those people were for sure paying much higher rates. They would of course pay those higher rates because they were assuming a big move in the price.

There are a lot of people willing to lend you money on the back of less-liquid-than-cash assets, though.

It may not be "real wealth" but it certainly is spending power and psychological cushion, which means different spending choices, which means inflationary pressure.

I thought that was sort of Paul's goal, to explore a bunch of new ideas and paradigms. I doubt he's under any illusions that this language, qua this language, is going to see wide adoption or need to have all of its features really ironed out with a fixed/stable API. But I could be wrong!

The things that most Java applications need to do to reduce the variance of runtime outcomes are sadly a little more basic: use a modern VM, set the compilation flags appropriately, and make sure the code caches are large enough to hold all your hot functions.
The Modern Warfare and later Call of Duty games, in particular, made some really frustrating design choices that amplify the difference between players. The powerful rewards you get for success can turn a close-enough-that-everyone's-still-having-fun match into a not-even-close misery-fest for the losing side. It's a hell of a dopamine hit when you're winning (which is why people like it) but it really messes with the balance of the games.
