I would imagine the complexities of building and rolling out such a system would not be technical. Imagine trying to get 200+ countries to agree and implement a standard to store healthcare records, blockchain or no blockchain.
I struggle to understand their endurance on their live coding sessions, for example https://youtu.be/VYAT6NZUQUE I want to watch them carefully and slowly from the start, it's so good to see the development workflow, testing, etc, initially the music was a bit difficult for me but seeing such progress and knowledge is amazing, just amazing
Yeah. The titanic has hit the iceberg, water is flooding the lower decks, people are fighting to get on the lifeboats, PG tweets "A person I have known for more than ten years, who I consider trustworthy, is convinced the titanic isn't all that seaworthy. I don’t know anything concrete, but if I were exposed, I would be concerned."

Also, anyone who thinks they aren't exposed is significantly underestimating the potential for contagion in the wider economy. As crypto-exposed funds have to make margin calls and take losses, they will need to liquidate assets in the normal economy, driving asset prices down across the board. It's not going to be as big an impact of 2008 but the economy is in a worse position to withstand shocks right now, with inflation high and years of QE overhang still to unwind.
I'm in Cape Town area but I think you get more value for your buck in JHB and Pretoria, and also the weather is much better there.
Now every time it fails people will hate “Google” :)
Air bases don't move at all. From a tactical standpoint they're much less useful than a carrier that can stay out of the range of all but the most expensive missiles.

Yea. I mean mvp

Can airtable be used for apps as well. Like. Can I use airtable to release an app?

Any other no code options?
I've been using Sublime Text for as long as I can remember and being good at exiting the popup is pretty accurate, I feel as if I don't even recognize it being there anymore.
Would it be comfortable to run it on 8gb ram 2013 MBPr only for the sake of zstd compression as additional partition in internal SSD ? There is something about ARC and RAM usage.
Garbage in, garbage out. Tracking shipments only works if you have proof that the shipment wasn't tampered with. Tracking shipments is only as reliable as the carrier not mucking with it, and we already have tamper-proof tape for solving that one. It doesn't prove anything, though. It's merely a tool in our arsenal of confirming trust, that makes it easier to tell where the problem lies if someone along the chain is lying. If someone along the chain is lying, their blockchain record is no more meaningful than any other document they'd produce.

Registry records and title deeds and stock assets are already solved problems, and there's an important problem that blockchain is trying to solve: It is possible for the centralized services to transfer ownership without the owner's permission. This is an important feature. It is used in things like bankruptcy proceedings [1] and other law enforcement action all the time. The people trying to create the "feature" of not having that feature are called anarchists, and decent societies lock them up, shortly before or after their crimes cause actual damage.

All of these are reasons for actual cryptography - Signatures and Merkel Trees. Blockchains have no advantages in any of them.

[1] https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/18/investing/ftx-bahamas-seizure - Whether the governments doing the seizure are trustworthy is an entirely different problem with an entirely different scope of solutions, but the places that have actual anarchy going on are not typically nice places to live[2] and other governments typically do their best to insulate their population from them.

Yes. In particular, "certification" refers to the fact that the proof is computationally difficult to create, but once it's created, it's easy for a third-party to check its correctness (insert your P/NP reference here).

Thanks so much for this link. Super helpful. Went through them and found commenters who had hbp. guanfacine was a recommendation to try. I'll see if I can get a hold of some... not sure.
Can you give us at least one example ?

> Just curious how the dominoes will fall but it does seem like the people that invested in cryptocurrencies underestimated the risks of corruption. It looks like programmable money and clever financial engineering makes embezzling money a lot easier.

There is nothing of these failures that involves the programmable money part. DCG and Grayscale live in the traditional finance world, they are asset managers in traditional finance. Their accounting books are not a public, decentralized, cryptographically verifiable ledger . When you buy a stock of their fund, this is not settled on-chain in any way. If they are fraudulent, it's again the traditional finance controls that are failing.
I do think this is the best option. Disneyland is cramped but it appears they will be given land to expand soon.

I think they are worried a third US park would eat into the brand - but have always been a bit surprised they haven't tried to do one in Texas. There is a lot of land there that is cheap and geographically could serve different audience.
Edited to decentralized.

No, he uses them as examples of how quality storytelling on a budget outcompetes the opposite. The problem with the “MBA thinking” is that it can’t quantify that quality beforehand, and makes the safer but more expensive bet on incremental development.
While we always are part of a generalized belief system, some are open ended and some are closed ended. That is to say, if you are willing to postpone your “truth statements” in order to promote your own critical thinking and inquisitive behavior, you are probably open ended. If someone attacks your insert belief statement , and if you do not feel threatened, you are willing to entertain beliefs other than your own, without surrendering your individual capacity for critical thinking and curiosity, that is probably open ended belief.

There are many things we probably belief that we want to belief rather than are true. That does not have to be a problem. Problems usually arise when we make future statements that entail a salvation aspect. “Do this and everything will be better” , “follow me because I know better.” The more exclusionary the tone of this salvation message, the more cultish it will score.

Some good resources :

> It is absolutely still inconsiderate but as far as I know there is little evidence that second hand weed smoke inhalation is much of a threat to anyone.

There is no reason to believe that weed smoke is any better or worse than cigarette smoke. Burnt plant matter is burnt plant matter and contains lots of garbage--most of which isn't good for anybody.

The only difference nowadays is that a lot of people consume both nicotine and THC using vaping and concentrated liquid. This is probably less damaging in terms of secondhand smoke as the temperature is lower and the goal is vaporization rather than oxidation.
I served both role as PM and engineer. Having high level metrics is great when things are going smooth. You will need to drill down, zoom in into user journey when things don't work as expected. E.g. increased drop-off, 404s, 400s. Another aspect is causality, given a result, what caused it? Is it because a deployment, is it because a marketing campaign, or is it just seasonality. As a product person, they should want the ability to zoom in into data. Right now the only option is through communication.

As pointed out by sister comment, developer need to know how their code is impacting their business. I would even argue developers are inherently a product person. You are always building for someone, be it another developer, internal users of you company, or general public. You have to know how people are using your tool. Hence as a developer you should want to be able to zoom out from whatever observability platform is currently offering.

Guess what, developer thinks product managers are stupid because all they know is either looking at data and measuring the wrong thing, or chasing for status update. Product managers thinks developer are nerds that only know punching on keyboard and not talking to the users. They are both right and wrong. But we create the chasm ourselves. There are alternative ways of building things.
Not an expert here either, but shouldn’t a weapon be considered in the context of a broader weapon system? And isn’t that entire system the result of the intended strategy and tactical reality?

Like, my understanding is that this thing is intended for asymmetrical, clandestine cold-war type of use. Not for WW2 scale confrontation with territorial gain objectives.
When the big systemic shock comes it's going to be USDT being revealed to be a fraud. Absolutely noone at all[1] saw that coming.

[1] By which I mean actually pretty much everyone. But it will still have a significant impact when it actually implodes.
I presume its a reference to tether, that'd be a big systemic risk that has looked shaky.
Healthcare records frequently need to be modified (e.g. a test was done incorrectly and needs to be voided). Sure, you can stick another entry in there saying "modify this other entry", but then any operations involve canonicalizing the state by scanning the entire subsequent chain. All the caching/indexing optimizations I can think of to make this not a complete nightmare also break all the data privacy and RTBF protections patients have.

There's also a lot of healthcare data. Is there any blockchain that scales to literally petabytes of data a year per facility/organization?
It just seems like these complains have a "Its too crowded no one goes there anymore" vibe. I feel like maybe the nickel and diming is not worth it - but fundamentally it seems like they need to lower the daily attendance and probably the easiest way to do that will keeping income stable is to raise ticket prices.
There are lots of p2p distributed data store designs around that fit this better.
OpenRA is the only thing that really works for an ad hoc LAN party on whatever laptops we have with us when we get together with the old crew.

We join over public servers, so we skip the classic LAN curse (spending an entire day getting it all connected properly, then only having time left for maybe 1 or 2 rounds of actual play).
Everything you said about journalists, you can say about product designers or software developers. Yet products continue to be designed and software continues to be written. It's almost as if learning doesn't end at the terminal endpoint of a college education.

The five-nines was a commonly used marketing claim used by companies about the product/service/system they were selling, it wasn't and isn't being applied to a general context.
I think the point being made there is not that all the computers/software used to be better/perfect but that the fact that such claims were used and became so prevalent shows that reliability was a feature and even an expectation.
Great post (also length-wise). Mediating forces between the organisation and the team is a major function of management which many managers lack, especially project managers. It requires foresight and planning and as the article states "a shock absorber pushes back--in both directions".

It feels like there would be a way to construct the tree in a manner that would drop the likelihood a negative balance was detected to an acceptably small number.
I think this limits the impact of a loose bicycle on a train to the point where it is just luggage again.

Where I live we can take bicycles on trains, and you can really only get two or three cyclists into a carriage before it becomes messy chaos. For our trains, cyclists can use the spot reserved for wheelchairs if there isn't one on board. If you need to get off and your bike is underneath other peoples it is a mess. Most people just stand with their bikes, and again if you got on in the wrong order it's a real pain to get a bike through the crowd. Bikes fall over all the time, and we take up a large amount of room.

The shinkansen lines are different in that you book a seat, so I suppose they could have dedicated cycle storeage near the exit of the shinkansen, that you have to book with your ticket.
You develop an AI to automate the process and expanding on this process eventually the company is essentially a bunch of code running in the cloud that generates a film on demand that fits the needs of each customer perfectly. (Obviously you separate out the real world business like Theme Parks).
That's what the term "formally equivalent" means here.

You can do whatever you can do with one of them, with the other one.

I agree but the sentence could be read either way. It’s early morning here and I was confused about the point that GP was making.
Moana is also rebellious however?

Turning Red isn’t about rebelling. It’s about finding out who you are. In the film she only really rebels against her mom about one thing, which is the same number of times Moana defies her dad. The rest of the movie is about her desire to venerate her ancestors while still being true to herself. In many ways it’s similar to Moana.

I’m unsure how any of these are “woke” so much as messages you disagree with. Which is fine, but I would encourage reflecting on it further.

Disney has had tons of rebellious characters over the decades. Ariel is rebellious. Simba is rebellious. Belle is rebellious. Mulan is rebellious. Lilo is rebellious. Aladdin is rebellious. Tony Stark is rebellious. Peter Parker is rebellious.

Interesting characters tend to be rebellious. Luke is literally a rebel who doesn’t listen to his father after all.
I started reading "Altered Carbon" after watching the netflix adaptation ( which was good ). Turns out the book is far better, more immersive and lets you wander off with subtle gaps that your imagination fills in and makes it an "interactive" experience in my opinion.

For anyone interested -> https://www.amazon.com/Altered-Carbon-Richard-K-Morgan/dp/07... (there is also the takeshi kovacs novel which i found that it isnt different )

From the blog post:

> They presented some of the systems they’d built and yep, we were impressed. Then, with the startup CTO in the room, one of my fellow engineers asked the key question: “All these systems, are there any that wouldn’t work without blockchain?” The guy didn’t even hesitate: “No, not really.”

> And that was about that.

Based on how my brother and his gf got sucked into it, a majority of my cousins, and a ton of friends of my brother and cousins, I agree there may be a correction that is needed and felt. Hell, I even managed to lose $1200 to a pig butchering crypto romance scam. Despite that, the day I stop getting interview requests for web3 companies and seeing them in the headlines every day is the day I will breathe a sigh of relief.
Sorry I'm struggling, but when you say they, you mean the junior?

Anyhow as you say, performance was not there and the other team quitted as well. There's that.

I imagine the rich, corrupt land lords in India would be able to steal your land even easier on the blokchain by sending a gang of armed bandits to your farm, torture you until you transfer everything to their wallet... and when you go to the police to denounce the harassment, you get arrested because the police is on the land lord's pocket. The blockchain cannot and will not stop violence in the real world from working around all the cryptography in the world, and it's shocking to me that anyone actually believes that to be somehow the case.
More than that, it shows that people care in a positive way. The people crying about wokeness are the loud minority.

Coco , Black Panther, Turning Red, Soul all did phenomenally well.

If you look at media embracing diversity, they’re largely doing pretty well when compared to projects of equivalent quality, because they’re bringing in new demographics AND giving something new to existing fans.
I've built a few coal forges. My insulating material tends to be a mixture of 2:3 plaster of paris to fine quartz sand. I bought the sand from a pool/aquarium supply store.

It holds up well to the heat, but not so much the rain. I tend to remake it every 1-2 years. When it's time I crush up the old bits into a new mix so it doesn't take much more material.
You can tell this was written by a human. If an Algo wrote it, it would be better.
>Iger has said Disney has built enough capacity to generate more entertainment than the world has cash to consume.

In other words, they have distorted the market because over-capacity should let prices fall.

But even if they keep their prices, cash doesn't have to be the limiting factor. The available cash is not fixed. If they spend their income instantly, 'new' cash is available to the market, and Disney can sell more entertainment.

>So the question is, once your corporate mega machine has become this efficient what do you even do next?

Expand to other markets. They know everything about human perception. They can leverage that to make more games or VR applications. They can build better education platforms or even create new cities. They could even try to convince Apple, Amazon and Google to open up the declining personal assistant market [1].

However, stable diffusion threatens their position. Who needs Disney's capacities if other algorithms can do it better? Disney will have to enter the AI race and spend all their money on developers and researchers. Unfortunately for them, they haven't used the last 20 years to create something like an online Cinderella university to globally identify young geniuses and funnel them into their company.

Yeah because we feel threatened.
Isn't this the same problem though, nobody wants to manage their coins -> platforms manage coins for users -> centralization.
What common or high profile applications do you think actively target Vulkan? Outside of games very few do in my experience but I’d love to see some examples outside what I know of.
> Users want to use Coinbase for convenience as much as for any other reason.

> Saying “we’ll make it easier to host your own coins” is a bit like saying “we’ll solve the #1 problem with mass crypto adoption”.

That's the point: Coinbase & CEXes have it easy because they can centralize - Their development efforts can be honed in more effectively.

The ultimate long-term goal is to remove the need for such entities in the first place, and make it easier/safer/cheaper with the use of rollups, on-chain insurances, social recovery wallets, DEXes, & integrated crowdsourced filter/allow lists.

Sometimes I agree with them, and sometimes I don't. But it's lazy to label them hypocrites.
> The shock absorber simply acts as a router

Force absorption requires space and resources to manoeuvre, a condition of austerity is a lack of space and resources, so I agree to that extent with your comment. The author talks about "leaders" though - leadership (giving direction, inspiration, solving big problems) is complementary to management (administration, communication, task allocation). Especially in tough times it's leaders who make the difference. The author says that "shock absorbers push back in both directions" - a leader will find new opportunities of optimising work by involving both the team and the organisation.
When you say "blockchain", are you referring to something like bitcoin? In other words, a proof of work blockchain? If we put all the world's data on a POW blockchain, we will cook the planet very quickly, and we won't have any energy for anything else.
No. Blockchain was invented to solve one particular problem: distributed consensus on a sequence of transactions, where the choice of which transaction to include from a set of conflicting transactions is irrelevant.

The latter property here is key to understanding where blockchain is useful. It was created to solve the "double spend problem", ie. two transitions that spend the same coin but send it to different recipients (and so they conflict and cannot both be included in the canonical list of transactions). A double spend is the result of the sender either (a) making a mistake, or (b) attempting fraud. In both cases the important property is that as long as only a single of these conflicting transactions is included, the systems works.

For all the applications you list above, this property is not present. If I create a transaction in your "shipping blockchain" that says "shipment A moved to location X" and another, conflicting transaction that says "shipment A moved to location Y", then it's obviously important which transaction we include, since it must reflect the actual, physical location of "shipment A".
