That doesn't work, it's called fraud and can be dangerous in some cases... For example, restaurants do that a lot with fish too and sometimes they serve you an alternative that is much more likely to contain heavy metals.

Even in grocery stores you can't be sure what kind of fish you buy.

I have been using Vim for 20 years. I have tried other editors and even gave them a fair try (1+ months of use) but always end up back in vim.
New SI prefixes and their etymology
Indeed. Also "compliment" should be "complement" if one wanted to be really picky.
This topic should be way more mainstream, and the activity of the data broker market, and participation of companies and governments, much more visible than it currently is. The fact it requires research to gain knowledge into how it operates makes it clear that it's not much different from other black markets. Except in this one, data obtained by tracking users and consumers is traded by the world's most powerful organizations, whose income and power largely depends on this being kept in the dark. The biggest hypocrisy is that these same companies publicly declare how much they care about protecting their users' privacy, while doing the absolute opposite behind the scenes.

It's disheartening to see no discussion on this post, on a site visited by employees of the largest corporations involved in this market. Surely they have some moral standpoint, and could share some insider perspective about this.
The process needs to be modified slightly. Everyone should end up paying the same amount for the ticket in the end. Those who bought early should not be penalized. When the the last ticket is sold, everyone should pay the same price as the last ticket. So when you buy early, you are just indicating the Maximum price you are willing to pay.

There should also be an option to automatically place a bid once the price reaches a certain level.

That’s the most fair way to auction off a bunch of identical things.

Another modification I would add to this is that let’s say 20% of the tickets should be sold for very cheap using a lottery system. So that not only the richest people could go to the concert.
Very interesting, I will look into that. Thank you!
> So cat math likely wouldn't have integers as we know them, but would have some kind of size-based analogue.

Sorry, but no. Any species capable of actually creating some kind of math will have some mathematical structure isomorphic to the integers. If cats can't count, then that just says that cats are not capable of creating some kind of math.
I would argue that those aren't truths. They need some other term to describe them but truth doesn't really fit the bill. Conflating them with truth leads to weird outcomes in your reasoning.

A more accurate term might be stories rather than truth.
> The storage and grid infrastructure is already there for the few times in a day when there is no wind or sun.

Sorry, no. In Europe we are talking about months without sun and wind, usually December, January, February, when day is short (8 hours for central Europe) and night have 16 hours. Wind won't cut it at that time, so only power plants, which are usually running at that time are either coal, natural gas or nuclear ones.

Additionally there is also lack of water through winter, because surprisingly it is frozen in soil and does not move through rivers. So hydro is useless during winter as well.

With respect to the item they have chosen to create, I think there's a solid rationale. Oysters are considered a delicacy, not to mention their fame of being (supposedly) and aphrodesiac.

So the oyster is a good showpiece to replace, if you can do it successfully.

I still think the whole fake meat business is misguided, but I ranted about that in another comment.

This software is excellent for pseudo science. For example, young earth peddlers will be able to generate entire mambo jambo references and use them to indoctrinate more people.
" In terms of their behavior under particular circumstances" is very specific. "The maths is useful under particular circumstances" is not the same thing as "numbers are real"

Bricks are in the category of "made objects" not natural objects, which generally means that they are _designed_ to come off a production line as similar as humanly possible to the other products. "My iPhone is physically interchangeable to yours" is a statement about the huge efforts of industrial manufacturing to standardise matter, not about the natural world.

Bricks too have quality thresholds that they have to meet or exceed. That alone should tell you that treating them like integers is a convenient abstraction, nothing more. The sibling comment has it right: counting bricks is a great model, but confusing your model for reality is still an old error.
I’d use observable. Here is an example of a mortgage calculator https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/modeling-in-observabl... . And you can create a page to collect all your calculators (other observable pages).
There's also an older(?) thread talking about the frustration and possible decline of asshole bosses. Whether it's necessary to be an ass or whether too many people think Jobs or Patton or whomever was successful because they were an ass rather than in spite of it. Jobs had taste, Patton was steeped in military theory and explicitly not an ass to his peers.

You can get people to follow you, for a while, via coercion or threats. This is way harder if they can walk away. Better to get people wanting to participate in your adventure, making it their adventure as well.
Those warnings are more a protection for libel lawsuits than they are about warning that the contained fictional story is fictional.
No one is challenging that Bahamas is a country. The only holdings in the country was a shell holding nearly nothing of value. Antigua and Barbuda and Delaware were principle locations of the holdings. FTX Digital Markets was a shell for SBF to buy his way into the country - everyone knows that already. Do you not see a conflict of interest for a state regulator to be photographed with SBF at a ground breaking ceremony and then lie about ordering seizure and then only after being caught red handed back tracking and saying they ordered it? Shady business.

Even within the FT article it is clear: https://www.ft.com/content/ecc6f488-f17d-4e0d-ab38-984d3e3ef...

"FTX wrote in a court filing earlier this week that there was “credible evidence that the Bahamian government is responsible for directing unauthorised access to the debtors’ systems for the purpose of obtaining digital assets of the debtors — that took place after the commencement of these [bankruptcy] cases”."
Think of it exactly the same way as email. You have different servers with users on them, and they can all talk to each other using a common protocol called ActivityPub.

The really interesting part of all this is that different types of platforms can focus on different kinds of content while allowing users to talk across platforms. For example, Pixelfed is an Instagram clone, PeerTube aims to be a distributed YouTube, Lemmy is a federated Reddit clone, and so on.

Thanks to using a common protocol it's possible for users across these platforms to communicate with each other. It's possible to follow content, reshare it, leave comments, etc. So, instead of having a bunch of walled gardens you have an actual ecosystem of different platforms.

And I think that open source and non profit hosting is fundamental for this model to work. Commercial social media platforms have an incentive to prevent users from sharing content to other platforms because they're locked into a zero sum competition for users with them.

On the other hand, Fediverse is a positive sum game where more users on the network means more content for everybody. There is no incentive to keep users locked in on your particular platform.

This is a huge advantage from user perspective because you don't have to juggle a bunch of accounts on different social media sites just to follow content there.
I'm with you, I find meat substitutes off-putting.
I agree in the decentralization mantra (though cryptocurrencies have not been a good public representative of the concept thus far), but this is the exact opposite of what you want to do to attract people to your cause.

What exactly is biased in this reporting? It is presenting an event that actually happened (Facebook took down their new Galactica AI model), presenting the reasons why it seems to have happened (numerous researchers lambasting it), with first-hand sources, while also making sure to quote the official reason given, and also a less official comment on the event from the lead researcher that seems to support their previous thesis.

To me it seems like a decent example of what journalism should aspire to be for this kind of topic. Bad journalism would have just quoted the official Facebook tweet and stopped there, like so many journalists do with political declarations.
> Communication is too important and sensitive to be controlled by a few.

Wasn't it controlled by a few even before Musk decided to buy it? Where I live, the supreme court controls all the content and user accounts from all major social networks, Twitter included. It takes literally 5 minutes to a single judge to suspend or cancel any user account and its contents.

"What are the symptoms of illnesses that can result from eating contaminated raw oysters or clams?

The illnesses of most concern from eating raw or undercooked oysters or clams are Vibrio infection, norovirus infection, and hepatitis A. See fact sheets for those diseases for more details.

Symptoms can include vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, stomach pains, severe weakness. Vibrio infections can also cause skin rashes and blisters, shaking chills, and high fever. Hepatitis A can cause yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes. Some of the illnesses can be quite serious and require quick medical attention."

Conjecture. A mathematical universe is consistent with everything we know, in which case math is literally the study of reality.

The corporation have the decision making power over the emissions. Knowledge of emissions is abstracted away by this middle man, and the relevant decisions are already made by the time the product is available to the customer, leaving the customer with only the binary fake decision of buying-in to all hight emissions decisions of the corp, or going without.
Because the article we are commenting on seems to be the Bahamas gov taking credit for the minting. “477M” is more than the 300m moved so must involve the mint as well. But it makes little sense why they would mint.
There is this piece of hacker lore, where a person discovered that he could not log in into a machine when standing. As soon as he sat, the login worked. After checking whether he is not standing on the keyboard cable etc., he discovered that the keyboard had two keycaps swapped. When he was standing, he needed to look at the keyboard and wrote the password incorrectly. When sitting, the muscle memory was working, ignoring the wrong keycaps.

Steps to improve your writing (2020)
It seems Mastodon and NextCloud don't seem to understand is that the only people still using Twitter are people who want to be outraged, and people who want to be outraged but claim they only follow people tailored to their interests ("I only follow tech people!")
ActivityPub can in theory only federate with a whitelist of servers or remain entirely closed off. You don't need to make your account public, but I don't see the advantage of using ActivityPub if you're going to stay private.

Your activity would be posted under @username@nextcloudserver.com, yes. I believe Nextcloud has had ActivityPub features for collaboration for a while now, I suppose building in a social network interface is just the next step.
I think they're still separate issues in specific cases.

For example, if you made a motherboard with user-removable capacitors, that would not enable any significant upgradability, only repairability.

Another situation: If you have a $100 device and it has a major component that takes up most of the overall device cost (let's say, $80), making that $80 component modular/removable/replaceable doesn't aid repairability all that much. If that component fails, my entire device is "totaled."
Another vote for Brave. On the rare occasion that Brave doesn't get the result I want, I'll go back to Google and bypass DDG completely now.

My experience is that Brave is better than Google probably 50% of the time, equal probably 40% of the time and then inferior 10% of the time, typically when I need location specific info where Google Maps + Reviews can't be matched.
You get a better heat pump setup with old water pipe radiators really than electric radiators. A water-water heat pump with a drilled hole. But it is more expansive than air to air heat pumps.
Article has some good information but dragged out the start. Also there was too much pointed bashing of the fake truffle aroma. I actually think this would have read more honest if the opinions were left out, or at least not written in a declarative tone.
> Does it matter that two bricks are not "the same piece of matter" if our predictions work the same for both of them

No, because of a dense, interconnected web of other social truths (the rest of the arithmetic model), the relative error of this one truth/model is negligible.

However, confusing your model for reality is a fallacy perhaps older than time.

The original comment wasn't about assigning blame but allowing market forces to work to balance supply and demand.

The prices are how you, as an individual, gain knowledge about the energy market. Prices are high and demand out straps supply. Prices are low and supply is higher than demand.

Subsidies distort this information.

This isnt to say it's good that people can't heat their homes but it's the only way to balance these markets.

Any solution that focuses on the consumer side relief rather than improving supply will only exacerbate the situation.
By that logic we don't really have capitalism and there was never true fascism or national socialism. What a weird relativistic world view.
It's not nonsense, they are exactly right.

The world is a sea of particles and energy which behave according to certain patterns (both fundamental laws and emergent behavior). Some of these patterns are pertinent to us, so we name them, giving rise to a category. "Apple" is such a category.

The clump of molecules on the table we denote with the term "apple" doesn't care that our brains have deemed it similar enough to certain other clumps of molecules to be placed in the same category. If all humans cease to exist, the clump of molecules may still be on the table, but there's no one left to consider it part of any category.

If aliens then visit who can't eat the apple and aren't interested in botany, they may simply choose not to distinguish between apples and pears, or apples and any other fruit, or even apples and any other form of organic material. The same clump of molecules is there, but the categories it belongs to have changed.
I like Mastodon. Twitter is a black-hole of influencers and hot-stuff personalities trying to eke out a follower or advertising dime. Mastodon is more focused on enriching interaction (rather than infinite scrolling) and it achieves this with a chronological timeline by-default, with zero random 'recommended' content. It sucks all of the ego-driven nastiness out of the equation and lets you return to a comfortable feed.
As far as I know all the auction mechanisms are equal[1], in the sense that:
1. the items are assigned to the same bidders (paying the same)
2. the revenue of the auctioneer is the same

In that sense you could chose the system that fits you the most. I personally think that selling tickets via auction is indesirable for other reasons.

I’ve been adapting to using the address bar bookmark search in Firefox, and ...

Looking back, impact-wise:

- the patient privacy protection for a medical intake/assessment tool used for millions of patients would seem to have the most impact on individual lives, particularly in some high profile cases of catching medical record snooping, and have used privacy laws to prevent numerous public services from being used as mass surveillance tools.

- the original intrusion detection infrastructure for a large govt and what they call "cyber" now.

- a security protocol for mesh membership verification and updates for space based assets, and a strategic mission change.

I've done a lot of other very public and prestigious, but ultimately, net-low impact things. However in doing so, I have been an example to others where I've shown them what's possible and I can think of several people who, directly and not, my example gave them the confidence to attempt and achieve some really huge things on their own. As though my role has been, "See, I can do this and even make it look cool, and I'm a deeply and laughably flawed person, but when you challenge it, the bar to these things only looks that high when you percieve it that way."
We can pretend “mainstream media” in the UK doesn’t have things like The Sun in it if you like; no one asserts The Guardian was part of the Brexit full-court press.

You do these things with social media bots, trolls, misinformation, etc.

Brexit wasn’t brilliant. It was an empty slate people could project their worries on. That’s why actual implementation, where details mattered more than slogans, is where the difficulty lay.
I'm sorry but what compelled you to do that? Cutting into an empty propane tank with an angle grinder? You like being in close proximity to explosions or something?
Depends of the definition of "fair". To me, giving away infinite free tickets to interested people and then extract with a uniform distribution would be fair. Of course you need to provide some kind of ID and go at the concert with that. Comes the problem of fake ID, but that seems negligible.
Anything built on the adversarial model is zero-sum - courtrooms, parliaments. But the systems have utility.

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. I picked it up for the first time in the 7th grade and have reread it about a dozen times since. The book is deeply thought provoking about what constitutes knowledge and served as a light introduction to epistemology and metaphysics. I later went on to study philosophy and computer science in college, largely because of this book. The long discussions about the scientific method still resonate with me, and every time an experiment “goes wrong” I remember that one of the lessons in the book is that there really is no such thing as a failed experiment as long as you are open to what the world is telling you.

The book is also an easy read because the entire thing is told in the form of a father-son travelogue. The fact that the author pulled off a travelogue about the philosophy of science is an amazing feat of exposition. So another lesson is about the value of good communication.
I always had a negative view of this book with such a silly title until I read 'The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life' and learned that not only did Buffet read the book but also went to great lengths in applying it to his daily life.

So I figured it must be worth a try and learned a few valuable lessons, even though some of them seem kind of obvious - with the benefit of hindsight.
You are looking for WSUS (Windows Server Update Services). If you have Windows Server somewhere, you can add WSUS role to it and use group policies to point your clients to it for updates.

Then, in WSUS console, you set up approvals for updates and then the updates will be offered to clients only once you approve them. You can divide the clients into groups and manage the approvals for these groups individually, so you can have a separate testing group.

>this person HAD to be an insider, no question

Nah, that's doubtful. I've seen plenty of posts on HN and elsewhere that held the same sentiment. MANY people said that what they were trying to do was very difficult and they did not do anything to prove they had any technical advances to do it. The company was shady and overly secretive in a really strange way. The board was inappropriate for a biotech company.

Everyone with a background in biology or microfluidics said these things. It wasn't hard to find.

That's why I was so surprised when they partnered with Walgreens. I thought at the time that Walgreens must know something that the public didn't.
