He more or less admitted that that was all bullshitting for PR purposes.
My dorm in 2006 didn't have any wired network (nor wifi).

So what we did is we wired one ourselves through the walls of every room, running ethernet cables from one balcony to the other. Every 6 room, we'd install a cheap fast-ethernet switch.

Eventually, we managed to connect almost all 300 rooms together in a giant single VLAN.

You can still see part of that mess in the history of Google Street View: https://goo.gl/maps/AQriNEJViMELQw8MA

That dorm ended up being a giant eternal LAN party. People would play games all the time, either from their own individual rooms, either after moving their PC using stolen supermarket shopping carts to other rooms for more conviviality.

You'd turn on your PC, and some custom scripts would tell you which games were currently being played, and the only thing left for you was to join the game of your friends, or the game of the total strangers from two floors down.

Fun times!
So many sci-fi books come across as basically the same, I like Forge of God precisely because it is so dark and uncompromising and is like works like Gateway and Worlds or Ballard’s works that read more as literature than genre sci-fi.

Also from the view point of SETI there is the awful truth that we really shouldn’t be trying to communicate w/ other life because the most practical meaningful form of interstellar communication is bombing with relativistic or sub-relativistic projectiles. See The Killing Star where aliens watched Star Trek: The Original Series and thought we might be dangerous, then saw Star Trek: The Next Generation and realized they could take us.

Any Brexit impact on UK inflation would be due to weakened pound more than anything. But whatever economic impact Brexit will have is mostly yet to be seen, it’s still hidden by the pandemic and the war (especially supply driven inflation).
It’s amusing how some people treat the collapse of one fraudulent CEX as the end of crypto. If there was an event that could’ve killed crypto then that would’ve been the collapse of Mt. Gox. Systemically speaking, the collapse of FTX is orders of magnitude less of an issue now than the collapse of Gox was then. I’m not saying crypto can’t be killed. It probably can be. But this is not it, not even close.
Is it not voted upon?
Indeed. That would ease making other tools, e.g. a super-optimizer, which generate or modify assembly code.
> If you stay on the same position, and the party you're talking to moves far to the left, you automatically become far right without doing anything.

That’s not how that works in general any more than Hawaii getting hotter means Alaska gets colder, and it’s not an accurate description of what’s happened in the GOP ideological purges since the turn of the century. In the 90s, Republican leaders were vocally against torture, in favor of immigration, supportive of gun control, and when David Duke tried to run for Senate he was condemned and prominent Republicans steered votes to the Democratic candidate rather than risk a white supremacist getting elected. Those fringe right groups showed no signs of believing that the Republican establishment welcomed them, unlike now.

That’s not to say that there weren’t problems but after watching moderate, and especially small-d democratic, voices be purged from the party for being insufficiently right-wing it’s really hard to support the claim that the GOP hasn’t moved much further to the right.

Well, if you rent a 2-3 bedroom apartment at 75% of hotel rates, you can make a lot of $$ in the extended summer season for vacationers = shop local, cook in kitchen. For the dead season you can rent to tech educators, week/month by week/month at 50% of hotel rates. This things were bought with corporate loans at 1.5% = they make a lot. A bit less now as rates floated up. Local managers runs the show, clean etc, you even charge a cleaning fee as they depart. Hotels are screaming - how does the city find them, the cities hate them? They would need an army of inspectors with repeated visits etc. The B&B and corporate types make sure they do not rent to party groups.
These stealth rentals have locked up 10-15% or rentals are are one of the major driving factors in the housing shortage.
Business taxes and hotel taxes are one way. Hotels pay both of these in addition to realty taxes.
And? Those retirees are "forced" to pay for roads they may not be able to drive on, research of all kinds they may not benefit from, education systems for children and grandchildren they may not have had, and all sorts of other things. All of those (BBC/news included) are very good things and it is insane to complain about them. Especially when the alternative is things like Fox News and Murdochs other trash propaganda companies.
The message I took from Jenny's book seemed more about rebuilding

because I see technology as complementing and facilitating human

What better way to debate ideas than to be where discussion takes place with people of an opposite ideology? Staying in echo chambers is not good for anything.

How do people expect to learn if they aren't willing to challenge their preconceived ideas? For instance, I love to read Jacobin and Catalyst Journal precisely because the quality of writing and scholarship is unmatched on an ideology I don't ascribe to.
Why is "WEB" capitalized there

I'm not really a fan of having my life savings just a hack away from being stolen. I am infinitely more confident in my retirement savings being managed by Schwab or Fidelity than any possible way of crypto, online, offline, or whatever.

> Something of the sort must happen eventually, as the current system, with its layers upon layers of intermediaries, is antiquated and prone to crashing—the global financial crisis of 2008 was just the latest in a long line of failures that occurred because banks didn’t actually know what was on their balance sheets. Crypto is money that can audit itself, no accountant or bookkeeper needed, and thus a financial system with the blockchain built in can, in theory, cut out most of the financial middlemen, to the advantage of all. Of course, that’s the pitch of every crypto company out there. The FTX competitive advantage? Ethical behavior. SBF is a Peter Singer–inspired utilitarian in a sea of Robert Nozick–inspired libertarians. He’s an ethical maximalist in an industry that’s overwhelmingly populated with ethical minimalists. I’m a Nozick man myself, but I know who I’d rather trust my money with: SBF, hands-down. And if he does end up saving the world as a side effect of being my banker, all the better.

> Those of you who are against air travel for climate reasons, can you share a source that has convinced you that it is a real problem?

1. As others have said: Many things contribute some non-trivial percentage to climate change. And anything that is above 1% on a global scale is non-trivial.

2. Personal carbon budgets are very quickly exhausted by flying

3. You have to start somewhere to avoid emissions. Some things are harder to avoid than others. I am convinced that 99% of flights are not needed to maintain a good standard of living. It is a low-hanging fruit that we need to pick. The same thing applies to cruise ships.
The sentiment is understandable but I think the hands-off approach has pretty clearly failed: ordinary retail investors are in fact plowing funds into crypto as investments (I went to grade school with several of them, who post constantly about this stuff on Facebook). In the status quo, nothing keeps a company like FTX from plastering Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen all over Chicago, positioning itself as a real alternative to Fidelity or Schwab.

Regulation doesn't have to mean legitimation. It can mean the opposite thing: ban public promotion of crypto assets, the same way we do with hedge funds and other qualified investments. Forbid FDIC-regulated institutions from accepting crypto as collateral. The contagion seems easy to stop.
I moved from the UK to the US.

Increased risk, increased reward. And if I'm fired, laid off, or deported, worst case I just go back to the UK having already earned hundreds of thousands of dollars more than I would have in the UK.
Every single generation knows very well what financial risk means. We tend to forget though in cycle times of 10-15 years.
How many “new” partners did the F-35 win over? There are lots of countries using the F-16/18 etc. I think there were even times the US had a conflict where the adversary had US fighters.
> If the web had stoped innovating and improving at this level of design it wouldn't have the GDP it does now.

But maybe not everyone's priority is maximising the GDP of the web? (I'm not even sure what the 'D' there means, but I'm trying to take the comment in the spirit in which it must have been meant rather than excessively literally.)
There's no need to "make the case" for the F-35 in 2022...the US DoD has already introduced hundreds into service, hundreds more to come, and it is quickly becoming the de-facto choice for NATO and other allies who are in the market for a new fighter (quick rundown: UK, Germany, Israel, and now even Canada is going to buy them, among many others)

The F-35 is set to take the title for "most produced" fighter over the F-16.

Elon may have not changed significantly, but his power has. With that power has come a change in how much influence he has , and what he can do with his power.

This doesn't make any sense. There is legal clarity and regulation inside the US. Crypto largely is deliberately attempting to create ambiguity. All the financial instruments created by crypto have real world regulated equivalents, whether that's ICOs or currencies of commodities. They already exist. What was FTX doing that CME, or a big hedge fund aren't? Well for one, FTX is a mix of those two businesses - why doesn't that exist in normal finance? Because of the dead obvious conflict of interests that we have seen resulted in exactly what happened at FTX.

So what do you want? FTX to operate under the same regulations as traditional financial institutions? Ok. That's fine, but we already have those regulations, it's the crypto organisations that are pretending that they don't exist - for the exact reason they don't want to follow them.

He's wearing shorts and an open shirt (see pic), starts off at 21C/70F and the temp drops to 10C/50F. It's no surprise his body and blood flow reacts to maintain core body temp.

(Edit: my own experience mirrors the article experiment.)

I never heat my house in San Francisco, and it frequently gets down to/below 10C/50F in the winter, and below 13C/55F at other times of the year. If I'm not moving around, just standing at my (standing) desk, then yeah I get cold, so I put on extra layers, a knit cap, and/or fingerless knit wool gloves. Often I'll already have wool socks on.

Btw a knit wool cap gets very hot especially if you have a full head of hair. Someone taught me that you can roll up the edges of the cap to dial down the heat. My partner smirks at me when I do this - she says I'm wearing a yamaka - but it works great, and you can fine-tune your temperature very well this way.
Love the work? No, not at all. Love one aspect, part, degree, radian, whatever of it. Just one thing. Don’t go for full on love. Cause you fall out of love and then what? Love a part of it and then you can keep it going for longer.
There are very few details about the charges yet, but from what's been said so far, this case looks disturbingly similar to recent cases in the US, in which innocent scientists were accused of espionage.

The most prominent person targeted in the US was the head of MIT's mechanical engineering program, Gang Chen. As you can imagine, the head of MIT MechEng is very highly respected in his field, so the FBI's case against him was a shock to people in the field. Unusually for such cases, MIT stuck up for Gang Chen, and the FBI eventually had to drop the case. There was simply nothing there in the end. The whole case was built out of thin air and implausible misreadings of harmless emails.

But before the FBI dropped the case, they made Gang Chen's life hell for a year. They carried out an early morning armed raid on his house, and arrested him at gunpoint in front of his family, as if he were some sort of terrorist or drug lord. They gave a big press conference in which they labeled him a Chinese spy. He wasn't allowed to continue his work, so he had to let his lab go. At the end of the whole ordeal, he said it reminded him of the Cultural Revolution in China, which he had personally experienced.
The whole thing is uninvestable.

None of it (including Bitcoin) generates any value. Nothing is created that benefits the human race. It's speculation all the way down - the only value that a bitcoin has is the likelihood of someone else paying more for it than you paid for it. It's not a turning point for human civilisation; it's a slot machine in a digital casino.

Not that the derivatives of "tradfi" are any better. But underneath all that speculation at least there is actual stocks in actual companies that are actually making real human value.

>"Dynamic array" refers to block of memory allocated via malloc() which you just happen to use as array.<

No. A dynamic array is an array which can be expanded or shrinked during its runtime life. The fact that C/C++ uses malloc for that (and btw, it's not the only way to do it) it's her problem. In other languages you have dynamic arrays that can be expanded/shrinked without using an extra line - main reason why nowadays Rust is a replacement for C/C++

>[0]<
From you own wiki reference: "the flexible array member must be last"

LMAO, really? Well, that indeed is a bigger C quirk. In Pascal, as an example, I can have it anywhere inside the record (struct equivalent of C), and it can be just as "flexible".
I had the fortunate opportunity to work with a really good, and relatively small group of developers to build the in-store point-of-sale system for Starbucks, used by over 12,000 US-based Starbucks and many internationally including in China.

While the F-15C does have more range than the F-35, the F-35 has more payload. The F-15E does have more payload, but that's a twin seat fighter-bomber that leans more towards the "bomber" part and isn't directly comparable

The A-10 is, frankly, a terrible close air support platform. Its only advantages are lower cost per hour and the fact that by being low and slow it's more visible to grunts on the ground. However, it's slower to respond to CAS requests; more vulnerable to MANPADs which the F-35 can simply fly over and radar-guided SAMs that the F-35 can avoid with stealth; and lacks modern electronics like the F-35's electro-optical sensor suite (aka cameras) making it more likely to cause friendly fire incidents. The gun has been too small to destroy tanks since the T-72, and too big be efficient killing BMPs and trucks, and also requires the plane to come in low and slow in the optimum flight path for getting shot down by MANPADs

For the close air support mission, you're either doing it in contested airspace in which the A-10 is too vulnerable compared to the F-35, or in uncontested airspace where a drone can do the dame job just as well if not better for cheaper
The missing piece is having CBDCs that your bank accepts on something like Uniswap. Until that happens on/off-ramps are needed, and these can only be centralised by definition.

I’m not sure having ubiquitous CBDCs with all that may entail would be better than having a few trusted centralised exchanges for fiat on/off-ramp though.
As we age, maybe prior experience coalescing as 'wisdom' begins to play a more active role in our day to day decision making? That wisdom manifesting in more of a consciously aware way...

Whereas maybe we once used to (passively or actively) make important judgement calls about a persons broader character based on certain physical attributes such as the uniqueness of their face, our wisdom says it just doesn't matter in quite the way we maybe once thought. One of the biggest lessons I learned early on when starting in the tech industry is absolutely never assume anything about anyone based on appearance. We've all fallen for that before!

This is industry dependent because for example, if we're talking about the fashion industry then things are different. I digress...

Regarding the body language and signaling by extension of appearance in American culture it can be used as an measure of certain aspects of someone's personality - not necessarily bad in the lack-of-eye-contact scenario, but we know it's a lot harder for someone to maintain the impression of engagement throughout inattentive interactions. Eye to eye is engaging, anything else is less.

However, since it's about establishing trust and respect when it comes to a new business relationship, at least in America, there's a sense of 'can I trust this person', that's rooted in fear. So if we're talking about something important presumably with potentially painful financial or reputational ramifications - then you tell me if it matters that this person is unwilling, or unable to look into your eyes? Does the inability to match ones gaze lead itself to more or less inherent trustworthiness?

Wars are won by convincing the opposing government and its citizens that they have been defeated and must surrender.

When there are a dozen F-35s flying patterns over your capital city, everyone has to admit defeat. Drones or missiles wouldn't have the same effect. For the desired effect, fighter jets must be big, loud, and expensive.

The only use case I have for crypto is as an alternative payment method. I take payments by credit card, give or take 70%, and PayPal the next 25%. The rest are check and crypto, which I have started in the last year. So I have been mostly off crypto until it became easier integrating a payment system - which I used coin base for. For myself , it has to be centralized - integrating into my billing system and tracking payments is something I didn’t want to do. Now, payments are increasing and I’d love to get crypto as a third payment option and a much higher number. It doesn’t need to be first but having most payments through a merchant account that will raise fees regularly , or PayPal which has higher fees and is not known for good support is a risk on its own. Crypto has helped with payments from countries like Nigeria who have currency limits on payments of $20.
One might be against crypto, I get it. But this whole article looks like as if it's written by a compulsive teenager who hates crypto because they've lost money in it.

This was a big part of paralysis and stagnation for me.

like you said, dont be all talk, but dont be afraid to take a position, communicate a desire, and try things. This is necessary to make progress in an uncertain world.

Just be upfront with yourself and others if you change your position. You dont need to be consistent, it is more important to be honest.
