Maybe I'm a crank but I think there are antipatterns in product names and one of them is -verse. I think it should be defined as "(1) something that has no place for you in it (2) Move on folks, nothing more to see here". See metaverse.

(ONE is also an antipattern in product names. Purina ONE was seen to be a premium product but why the hell does XBOX make their third console the ONE? What is the difference between a ONE, a ONE S, ONE X, SERIES ONE, SERIES ONE S, SERIES ONE X? Apple ONE makes about as much sense as Netflix getting into games.)
When Crypto was young it was this cool new technology that mostly interesting because of the underlying tech. But even back then it was mostly valuable for buying drugs online and other illegal stuff.

Now it's that and a way to scam people of their life savings. I do hope it dies out, it should have been heavily regulated from the get go. Way too many people saw these high production commercials with their favorite celebrities they trust telling them to invest in crypto and lost everything.

It never had a real use outside of scamming people and buying illegal shit, no matter how hard others pushed to normalize crypto it never happened. And why would it? Everyone was yelling at people to hold. Don't spend it, it will go to the moon!

And sure it keeps your money away from the spooky scary government. But I prefer my government insured bank account using a government managed currency and recourse for any scams/hacks that might happen to me.

But I don't think it will ever die. Just like MLMS, pyramid schemes and other crap like that.

Also don't even get me started on these centralized exchanges where you don't even own your key and have to verify your identity (Which is how most users interacted with crypto). It's completely counter to the point of crypto.

Or maybe "use the time off to set up a Kubernetes cluster"
No, There is no entity to bail out corrupted, centralized crypto exchanges. The philosophy is that what doesn't kill you makes you just stronger. So, Crypto will come back stronger than ever. Nothing is too big to fail in crypto, unlike cancerous financial institutions in the current system
You also need a system to manage books coming in, separating spam/viruses from real content. You either need a centralized source verifying books (zlib and usenet approach) or some kind of voting system like thepiratebay. If it's a centralized source, that'll be the weak point to take down, and voting systems won't work well for unpopular books.

Last I checked there were some pretty good usenet servers flying under the radar with even more books than z-lib, manually curated. So there might not be enough demand for your idea at the moment.
Psychology/psychiatry has a dark past and seems to change its mind on things very often (often because of political correctness). Borderline a pseudoscience.

Until there's a blood test or concrete psychological proof, its just simply not a disease. These articles were great reads on this phenomenon of self diagnosis:

I thought there was video of the incident. Why do we need to take anyones word for it?
Interesting! That’s something we will definitely adjust for in upcoming models, though practically speaking, the confidence is low enough that in mod systems they would be treated the same
The thing about git is that it's basically plumbing all the way down. In this case: switch abstracts over checkout, which abstracts over read-tree & checkout-index. The nesting doll just keeps going.

Because switch is built on top of checkout, there's no functional difference between the output of the two subcommands when used for the same purpose (assuming the presence of a skilled operator). It's strictly a matter of ergonomics and abstraction.

At the end of the day, as long as you don't fuck up, just do whatever best keeps you in your flow state.

Lol I got some medical bills when police dragged me to the hospital against my will (not psych related, insane warrantless attempt to search me "internally" for drugs, never consented to anything, was not intoxicated and doctors documented I was completely asymptomatic and non-altered mental status)

>People need to hit these profiteering practices right in the wallet.

Here in Arizona there is a hospital system that appears to be using false smuggling accusations as a racket in connection with CBP officers. "Patients" are forcibly taken in, rack up huge medical bills, and then when nothing is found they're dumped back on the street with the debt.

Keep getting the bills. Can't wait for them to actually sue so I can discovery them for any shred of evidence what they did was legal.
Yes and it should be the start of the complete downfall of Crypto.

So sick and tired of this absolute grift, it always 100% guaranteed ends in failure.
I can't picture this being much of a big deal. Sounds like we'd be talking about going from £0 yearly to £165. Electric cars already cost well into the tens of thousands. Very few people are going to balk at paying that little tax for a car that cost them 500x that. And what's the alternative? You buy a petrol/diesel, you'd pay the same.

For reference, see the tax band tables below:

There's a simply amazing amount of sophistry from one side on this post.

No, that's not about sugar. The body needs glucose to function. It is produced from carbs (and other sources) in your food.
Yes. That's why keto is used by some cancer patients.

Not all cancers are glucose-sensitive though.

That's an interesting take. Are sprints sustainable?
A general PSA for those finding this later on: Unless you expect to close a round of VC funding within 3-5 months (i.e. you already have investors lined up) you should generally save yourself the hassle and form a Delaware LLC instead.

The process of converting a DE LLC to a DE C Corp is far easier than the paperwork involved in properly running a DE C Corp when you're bootstrapping.

Remember that as a solo founder without investors, you are effectively being double taxed with a C-corp because it pays taxes on its income and then you pay taxes on your income.
Not necessarily. If you are rich, then there are many ways to get around that. For instance having another company in a tax haven charging licensing fees to your company in Netherlands or whenever and then loaning money to the individual, which in many countries still is tax free. Of course you don't have to repay the loan or pay just the small interest.
These taxes are designed to keep working class being working class and ensure they'll never jump the class ladder.
It's written in Rust. Rust is at the state of its life where people will try to do anything and everything with it because they can. Some will stick, while some is just silly.

If I interviewed somewhere that used Rust for web apis, I'd be very hesitant because this isn't really what Rust is good at (yet?), and someone chose it because they wanted to try it more than use the right tool for the job.
Um remember PRISM? Or the cloud act? I seriously don't understand how you can get so outraged at countries trying to hamper a foreign government from mass spying at their population. That sounds like

Also,i fail to see your point: small ad-supported businesses in the beginning of the internet did not rely on tracking and targeted ads, did they?
Yes, apologies! I'm so deep in the AMD/Intel/Nvidia rumor mill I forget how normal humans talk, sometimes.

Tech news people tend to use "AIBs" as shorthand for "second-party (add-in) board partners" -- that is, companies that sell graphics cards using AMD or Nvidia GPUs but with their own board and cooler designs. So in the case of Nvidia this would be EVGA, Gigabyte, MSI, Zotac, ASUS, etc. But crucially NOT including Nvidia themselves, even though Nvidia sell their own reference design they call the "Founder's Edition".
Where is the xenophobia? Come on, not every single minor comment you don't agree with is xenophobia.

You might disagree and think I'm wrong. Fine. But there's no need to cry wolf because I said US culture is quite insular. Geez.

If you need an accurate number, it should be measured manually. Some sports clinics can do this; measuring true VO2 Max, as well as actual max heart rate.
How are the extra notes entered? The keyboard looks regular, is there some note modification going on, or are the extra notes actually added as dedicated keys?
It seems pretty clear-cut to me. "Guessing right" cannot be espionage, because you didn't gather any new information, just discussed existing publicly available information. Similarly, "publicly discussing reality" cannot be espionage unless the "reality" you're discussing includes information you obtained illicitly (e.g. by flying drones near government facilities and taking pictures of them in a concerted effort to obtain said information), or as a result of you having a security clearance.
> FTX was the antithesis of cryptocurrency

No true scotsman. "The USSR wasn't real communism."

What cryptocurrency could be or should be in an ideal world is irrelevant. If cryptocurrency fails to live up to its ideals, it may be because these ideals are impossible to fulfill. That could be due to technological limitations, human nature, or something else. And in this case, we have no choice but to judge crypto for what it looks like in the world of today.

What matters is what cryptocurrency looks like in practice. And that is FTX, Mt Gox, Three Arrows, and others.

Crypto isn't sound enough to have mass adoption.

The USSR was real communism. And FTX is crypto principles at work.
If you're set on trying to uncover and release as much classified as you can glean, I'd say it's not surprising to end up getting an unpleasant visit. At the end of the day, if your passion involves actively degrading your country's competitive advantage by leaking every info you can to the wide world, I don't know.

One argument is that their discoveries set a floor for what a well equipped actual spy would be able to easily glean. The easy counter argument is that the actual spy should _also_ be investigated by the FBI in riot gear. Protecting classified information isn't just a defensive game of hoping no one will see and distribute the information. It also involves preventing people from doing so.
My understanding is that as long as they (the security forces) have already bought that equipment then they might as well use it. It doesn’t really matter if said equipment is best suited for the task at hand or not.
Ironic too since Galois was a devoted Republican while these folks are clearly in the Orleanist camp.

Well, true, but it doesn’t seem to be enough. Too little transparency to public for this amount of power.

Maybe you can say instead that executive branch is too powerful by inference, and special services are just their instrument projecting this power, but I think that’s not the whole picture. By design, such services become a semi-independent branch themselves, and iirc they are not really rotated, at least on low-to-middle levels.
Solar can be installed on roofs. Costs go up, but resiliency goes way up and less grid complexity and transport is needed, and it solves the "holy crap how will we charge all these consumer EVs".

The EV(s) can function as some of the battery backup, especially since most EVs will be about 80% overprovisioned for everyday driving. Tesla is already doing it in California.

Storage breakthrough: sodium ion goes into mass production at 140-160wh/kg by CATL next year. In addition to being usable for the 200-300 mile EV, that will mean cheap grid batteries.

But this obsession with dispatchability at scale shows that there is too much focus on grid-scale solar and storage and centralized control. Yes the upfront costs are cheaper, but grid solar should be hand in hand with a VERY aggressive home/business solar+storage subsidy.

It's dumb that a natural disaster knocks out power for the entire area because transmission lines go down. With distributed solar and storage, that wouldn't be nearly as bad. Old guard electric can't wrap their heads around a country where every roof has solar doing most / all / surplus power generation.

Pizzly (the fast and simple OAuth library) is back
Hello,

we are the new stewards of Pizzly and request your feedback for a 2.0

For those of you new to Pizzly:
Pizzly is an open-source library that makes building on APIs with OAuth fast & simple. It handles the OAuth 2 and 1.0a dance for you, gets you an access token, keeps it fresh and makes it fast and easy to do authenticated API calls. It is language agnostic and supports 50+ APIs out of the box.

We took over the project recently after the previous owners could no longer maintain it.

We want to bring it back to life and for this are looking for your input: We want to know what you love (and dislike) about Pizzly today, so we can build more of what works and fix the parts that are broken.

Please add your voice to this GitHub Issue and we look forward to reading your comments: https://github.com/NangoHQ/Pizzly/issues/263

Thanks & looking forward to hearing from you!

I think it's little a bit more complicated than that. Game devs don't actually update their old games very often, if at all. 32 -> 64 is not a trivial upgrade if you have external dependencies; you might even need to pay new license fees.
Wow. Imagine the Manhattan Projects you could make with ten trillion!
Is “bigger online presence and fame in the conspiracy sphere” beneficial to a person?
FWIW - my "um...so?" was a cynical quip: "Speaking up to say bad things about the big boss did not end well for the little people? That has been normal for the past 10...100...1000...10000 or so years, hasn't it?"
The problem is sometimes your organization does not reward these efforts at all.
> So does this mean cancer cells are so hungry for sugar that they can't survive even a short term dip in sugar availability?

It's not a short-term dip, according to the article:

> "Examining the cells of these organs, we found a rise in the number of glucose receptors during high-intensity aerobic activity - increasing glucose intake and turning the organs into effective energy-consumption machines, very much like the muscles. We assume that this happens because the organs must compete for sugar resources with the muscles, known to burn large quantities of glucose during physical exercise. Consequently, if cancer develops, the fierce competition over glucose reduces the availability of energy that is critical to metastasis."

> "Moreover," she offers, "when a person exercises regularly, this condition becomes permanent: the tissues of internal organs change and become similar to muscle tissue."

I.e. exercising lots appears to change the makeup of your organs, so they absorb sugar more aggressively _all the time_ and so cancer cells have to develop in a far more sugar-competitive environment.

Someone bought a domain I let expire (intentionally - I no longer wanted to run that site) and appears to have mirrored all the content on it with occasional ad links thrown in here and there.

It's weird.

I don't want to link to the site because I don't want to drive traffic to them.
I love the irrational optimism you have for this solution in search of a problem.
If Mick's account is to be believed then he has definitely been treated poorly and Marty sounds like the client from hell (and summoning an internet mob is awful behaviour). However, I couldn't help feel when reading it that he was consistently naive in not looking out for himself, which is surprising for someone with experience.

He had already worked with the same company, already experienced pay issues, already knew the planned deliverables were nonsensical, worked months without pay, took on additional project without a contract, then signed a contract without reviewing it with a professional, didn't escalate to higher powers sooner, etc. None of this is easy and can cause stress, but they're standard problems that all freelancers have to deal with. Part of being a freelancer is getting paid more to deal with these bad bits. It's not for everyone, including me.
To further clarify, if the newspapers has anything to do with the act of giving them classified documents, they are guilty of a crime. So if you walk into the NYT and say " I have these secret documents, want them" they are fine and can publish them and (depending on how you got them) you get to spend a long time in jail. If a reporter comes to you and says "hey, can you sneak out classified documents" and you do, you both go to jail.

It's worth noting that news agencies will often give the government a chance to explain why they should not publish the files in truly important cases. If that's likely to be "if you publish the plans for D-Day, many people will die. So please don't"
You have to look out for your own kid and do what's best, not my place to speak, but I think we can agree on different approaches to these problems. Not all have to be involved with diagnosis or medicine.

Yes but if the law was “Fuck You America Act: 5% of global revenue from US based companies goes to us because we can” then the US government might have opinions about that when it comes to trade negotiations.

The question is whether this law is closer to fuck you than it is reasonable regulation of bad behavior.
BFG Division and The Only Thing They Fear Is You are always on repeat for me. I'm not even a big metal fan, but Mick's music was love at first sound for me. It truly blows my mind how scummy big name video game companies are. Hope Marty Stratton never works in this industry again and Mick wins the good fight.
I'm a user of Bitcoin and I never used any exchange.

I agree with you, arguably interest rate raising above the minimum is what exposed a lot of these scams.
No, but Haskell does not need to explain monad for that either. All examples and docs for map/concatMap over a list are free from having to mention any type class at all.

On the other hand, if you have to explain how the for/yield in zio and why it works for so many different types, you have to basically explain Monad using another name.
Came here to say exactly this -- an APL-like notation + programming environment would seem to be a great way to program on a tablet + stylus. I'd love a notebook environment where I can mix equations, doodles, executable code, & their output.

This is good advice, but it shouldn't stop you from reaching out to people during and after a crisis. Sometimes you don't find out who your allies are until the road gets bumpy.
So in other words Elon is just like every other CEO in your estimation? Wasn't the whole point of the image Elon has been building that he's somehow different from everybody else? Then he reveals himself to just be the same old same old crap we've become accustomed to.
2_&{&/x!/:2_!x}'!R is very understandable to someone who knows K. (Or at least, the idea is, do you know what dialect it uses? Where's the code from?)

The (roughly) equivalent python is filter(lambda x:all(x%i>0 for i in range(2,x)),range(2,R)) - is this really that much better? (yes if you know python, no if you know k)
