It's partly a UX thing, uniswap can be expensive at certain times. This is beind worked on actively with rollups. But there is still more work to do.

It's partly also because you have to bridge from traditional finance to cryptocurrency somehow. Many of these centralized exchanges are allowing that bridging. Usually that would involve meeting strict banking and KYC regulations. FTX decided that was too much of a hassle and incorporated in Bahamas to avoid it.

Blockchain isn't resistant to their influence. Case in point: courts still exist. What's to stop me to get a court order showing I'm the rightful owner of something? How can blockchain prevent that?

Moreover, what if I actually am the rightful owner, and the original record was incorrect?
Never once as a retail investor have i needed any of those features. Blockchain a solution looking for a problem.

Yes indeed, but even more so: Forth is vastly more powerful than a mere macro assembler, because you have the full power of Forth to write arbitrary functions and mini-compilers to assemble code, no just simple macros! It comes with structured control flow constructs, and you can even write your own. Not only is the assembler itself written in Forth, but you can seamlessly extend and build on top of the it too, building high level interfaces and domain specific languages on top of low level assembly code and hardware.

Check out the amazingly powerful x86 assembler in OpenFirmware, which is deeply integrated with the hardware, operating system, bootstrapping, debugging, tracing, breakpointing, disassembling, cross assembling, meta compiling, and calling back and forth with C code:

An individual may feel fatigue, but when the general audiences start to feel the fatigue, that’s going to actually make a difference. If there was a superhero fatigue for years, Endgame couldn’t have made nearly grossed ~2.8B USD.

Considering that Marvel movies are not making “all of the money” and are instead making “most of the money” in the eyes of its investors, they may be thinking that the head winds are changing and might want to forestall such a thing.

Of course, there were other reasons that Chapel may have been sacked as well, such as the “Dont say Gay” bill fiasco, as well as having lost their tax free status in Florida,the Mulan controversy, the previously mentioned issues at Marvel, alienating creatives (including publicly fighting one of its biggest stars),underwhelming Star Wars and Disney movies and shows, (possibly) losing the streaming rights for the IPL in India (cause Hotstar in India had a decent chunk of the streaming market in India cause of it).

Don't forget money spent paying employees, executives, buildings, leases etc. Mining is just one of the costs of the whole crypto worlds. It's an amazing industry that keeps providing nothing of value (or you can argue it creates negative value) while finding creative ways to spend money on it.

> I claim that a brain is purely an information processing machine

You're not exactly wrong, James, but you don't realise how much you're already assuming what you're trying to argue for.

Information isn't merely some object in pure mathematics. In that -log(p(e)), you have already decided what outcomes to see as the same. There's no "pure information", it's always information over the space of events we care to distinguish as different.

When you've decided what differences in the universe are worth caring about, what further insight is there to be gained from declaring brains to be information processors? Given a sufficiently odd (and specific) choice of what differences to care about, you could probably truthfully declare damn near anything to be an information processor.

I want to believe it will be great but even when apple was x86, linux was barely functional on the modern systems (2018-).

Proprietary drivers for radio/sensors/audio were incredibly hard to get working and the blackbox security module they have made it nearly impossible to boot and use any peripherals. I was following somewhat closely for a long while and outside of hobby hacking, it was never a useable system from what I saw.

Do you know if it’s looking better in that regard for M1? I’ve been out of the loop.

Yes, I used Spike quite a bit in the beginning. I also compared with my own instruction logging with objdump -drl program | less.

These days I have a decent test suite. I verify Go and Zig hello worlds (both running through a surprising amount of code): https://github.com/fwsGonzo/libriscv/blob/master/tests/unit/...

And I generate a mandelbrot that I compare: https://github.com/fwsGonzo/libriscv/blob/master/tests/unit/...

While most tests produce RISC-V programs which are run to completion as part of the test, that still might not cover every edge case, though. I have tried to integrate with the riscv-tests repository, but it uses a lot of privileged instructions. After I have implemented more of the supervisor extension I will be able to run those tests.

> Our diagnosis is that individual developers do not pay for tools.

Quite simply developers are not decision makers. Often engineering managers aren't even decision makers. I fully believe if you want to dominate in that area you need to target decision makers who force it upon their developers. How many of us have been told we're using X database or we're using X project management tool or even X virtualisation system? Management makes these decisions which is why if you go an AWS conference you'll find majority of the people there aren't techies but management and lots of the talks are aimed at management understanding the tech.
> Could you point me to a couple videos of Czech JB devs talking at Czech conferences in Czech?

Do you have examples of them not talking Czech at Czech conferences? Not talking a particular local language at an international conference is not a significant metric IMO. A great many companies from all over the world send people out to speak English (or at least American!) at conferences. As a linguistically ignorant Englishman this is rather useful to me, but it doesn't make those companies not French, not German, not Indian, not Chinese, etc.

Heck, if (caveat: speculation, I've not looked into this at all) Russian is a common enough second language in the country (or at least amongst local+visiting delegates for conferences about these subjects) then some talks at a conference in the Czech Republic being in Russian would not be surprising, much like you see many talks in English/American countries where English is not an official language (and similar for other languages that are significantly more common if you count people with them as second+ languages as well as native speakers).

> used to listen to tech podcasts

The issue is more acute with podcasts than conferences: the audience is international, so they might not have the luxury of using their native language while serving a large enough target audience.

> Because I was a russian speaking … listen to tech podcasts and talks in russian all the time

I see much room for confirmation bias here. What reason would they have, beyond national pride which is valid of course, to make a point of explaining “we aren't Russian BTW” on a Russian language podcast? Especially give that could be seen as a bit of a down-play of the Russian audience if national pride works the other way against them.

CT doesn’t require anonymity: the trust in CT comes from the tamper-evident design creating a risk to your reputation if you cheat. Once you have third-party trust relationships you no longer benefit from the expensive blockchain mechanism designed to work without them.

Those are the easiest step for many with elders.

In HomeLab settings, I also do the following:

- Block all DNS, including all DoT/DoH servers by IP; set up own DNS server, auto download DNS black holes using family-friendly open DNS lists/servers.

- transparent HTTPS proxy; maintain various ICAP servers to protect (AV, PPI leakage prevention, HTTP block list)

- open a private WebDAV server for many internal use; ownCloud, netCloud, ...

- WireGuard variants; TrueScale, ZeroScale, ...

- MDM; get those phones under your control

The thing that always makes me cave and install brew is I want to try some tool and its default install assumes brew.

Now, I'll bet in close to 100% of cases I could get things to work with stuff from MacPorts instead, but I've accumulated thirty years worth of scars that incline me to want to stick as closely as possible to the defaults when trying something new.

So I end up going back to brew, even though I don't much like it.
For photo aspect ratio, it keeps insisting to show as little of the advertised guitar as possible. I would prefer to see as much of it as possible.

I think if a photo is essential content (which it is in this case), you should crop as little of it as possible. Though it also depends on whether there's a detail page where you can see the whole thing undistorted, but that's context this example doesn't provide.
NI was explicitly created as a hack to an all-Ireland independence referendum at the start of 20th century. It was a landslide victory for a one-Ireland state and the UK created this never-seen-before entity as a response.

I'm not even Irish and certainly have no skin in this game but what the UK did to Ireland over the centuries is disgraceful, and it clearly is struggling to come to terms with it.
On a related topic, I find programming or typing while wearing a watch leads relatively quickly to wrist pain due to the pressure constraints it puts on the muscles and tendons.

I have tried several different watches and experienced this problem. I know many tech industry people wear watches while they work, but I have never heard a discussion of this condition. I wonder if I am somehow unusual in this situation. I am otherwise not especially prone to repetitive stress injuries.

It has been bad enough I have thought of converting a wristwatch into a modern pocket watch, though I would lose any feature that depended on skin proximity.
> As I understand, DHT is vulnerable to sybil and eclipse attacks

So are blockchains. However, blockchains are much harder to secure, since they need to preserve the order of the ledger (for Bitcoin that's a total-order; there are some chains which only require partial-order). That forces all transactions to jump through hoops, like proof-of-X; even if they're not under attack.

> not really suited to the task of creating a tamper proof log

That's my point; why impose a log (and hence a total-order of events)?

> Users in the network may need to come to consensus about the ordering of events, such as if signed documents A and B are order dependent.

That's a heck of a hypothetical; and it's solvable without baking order-dependence into everything, e.g. we can embed the hash of one document inside another document; or we can provide hashes-of-hashes (Merkle trees), etc.
this is often called “audio to midi" or "Music Transcription".

In term of simplicity, Decoda [0] is supposed to give chords even for full songs. It is not precise though.

FYI, the best precision out there on polyphonic guitar audio seems to be with Jam Origin [1]. It aims to feed live guitar to midi synths, so you will have to fiddle around on a DAW with another plugin to analyze your midi as chords.

AI solved this recently to a higher accuracy, but there is no user friendly guitar audio in -> chords list out, app yet (to my knowledge)

A month ago, I would have said this is naive. That, for all his ego, 420 jokes, and poor estimation of project timelines, he's mostly run Tesla very well, with a coherent, long-term vision, and delivered quite substantially -- even if very behind schedule.

But seeing how eratically he's run Twitter in his first month it's clear he has no idea what he's doing. Whatever you may think about his "4d chess" plans in regards to the moves he's making, if they were good long term ideas he wouldn't be backpedalling on them constantly, it's as simple as that.

I don't know whether his success at Tesla is a facade and all attributable to other, smarter people keeping him inline - or if he's just good at running a car company and bad at running a social media company, or what. And I'm not even saying he can't turn this disaster around eventually. But as it stands now it's clear he's not thinking about his decisions at Twitter before he makes them.

It's kinda funny we ended up with the ultimate 'tweet before you think'-er owning and running Twitter.
Maybe you're trying to find a firm technical requirement for such tight timing, but they don't need one. In a sense the above comment is right, they (JR) just want it.

One of their goals is to strive for such efficiency and punctuality so that the service is better overall, and so in your original comment I guess the answer is both that things would fall apart if the timing got messed up, and also that it's part of the reputation and one of the goals of their service.

It's worth noting that JR is a series of privatized companies, which is notable because they're profitable as well. I imagine efficiency plays a pretty big role in that too.

You can replace DOS extenders to a certain extent. DPMI is standardized, so if an application is directly developed against the DPMI interface, it doesn't matter which DPMI server is present. I remember that some programs would run without any additional executable on Windows 98 (which provides its own DPMI server) but would require CWSDPMI.EXE when run from DOS.

I guess that other programs would directly communicate with DOS/4GW through a different interface and that's when you can't just replace it with a different extender, but there are other extenders that can fully replace DOS/4GW such as DOS/32.

> Civilization is basically an ever expanding cultural grey goo meat grinder

In some ways, it was, in some ways, it wasn't. Civilization allows some ideas and some ways of life that aren't/weren't possible otherwise. An example cited in this thread is that of an aboriginal group (Pintupi Nine) that became artists after contact with civilization. Surely being a dedicated artist would be much more difficult without civilization support. Many civilizations were respectful of regional differences and even local religions and other beliefs (even e.g. Alexander). I mean, modern civilization essentially respects regional differences and has understood rights w.r.t. cultures. If you look at the consensus from social sciences it seems by far in the side of non-uniformization as being healthier and preferable choice for societies (and hence for policymaking). And of course and some of the absurdities of 20th century were ideas of supremacy and forced uniformity.

And most important, civilization is not static (and not a physical law), it's a system, maybe almost like an operating system, and we continually are making choices on how to build it. And studying how our design choices contribute to better, more fulfilling, more interesting existences.

I assure you, those choices are being made right now, and more active participation, in-depth study and science are important to assure to good future. (you shouldn't use the first few OS designs as a rule that all OSes will need to follow forever)
