I hope you do realise that while you are saving lets say half of your money from the incompetent government or whatever is the case there, at the same time your South American oligarchs are using the same token system to steal billions from yours country, and from you indirectly.

What you are proposing is eventually devolves to the social darwinism. You have a global aggressor - your government. You have a lot of citizens i nthe country, both rich and poor. All were hurt by aggressor (financially), rich less so, poor - a lot. Now you introduce a new system in the equation - tokens. It works like a private pipe from a shared pool. Now the individuals are are more proactive, smarter, and richer will utilise such pipes earlier and more thoroughly, funneling money to the offshores. And people not utilising such pipes/tokens are left "having fun staying poor". You personally is simply hoping to save your own money faster than aggressor takes them from you.

The problem is that you country will be in the worse position when such "money saving" system will be working at scale.
The problem is that people think money is wealth, it is merely a claim to wealth. Each dollar is backed by a dollar of debt. That makes sense but it doesn't mean having more dollars means more wealth, it just means more dollars are necessary to run the economy.

If anything, a worshipping of money as wealth results in the opposite problem. People think they are wealthier than they are and then get disappointed, which is why governments and economists insist on permanent growth as debt increases.

A lot of wealth is not in the form of a stock but in the form of a flow. The wealth is alive so to speak and you must keep it alive if you want to benefit.
Securing internal web apps at Figma

One of the comments there says:

> Heh, after an independent security review we are being forced to take this even further;
We lock people out for five minutes after three invalid login attempts. We are no longer allowed to tell users they have been locked out. So, even if they do remember their password (or even does a reset) we just have to tell them their uid/pwd is wrong when they try to log in. And for “forgot password”? Just tell the user “we have sent you an email – IF we recognised the email you put in”.

This sounds absolutely horrible, and now I'm wondering if I've been subject to this behaviour. Couldn't remember my password (for a trivial site where I use one of my reuse passwords and didn't put it in KeePass), started doubting if I had the correct email, eventually reset the whole thing, reset the password to the password that I thought it should have been, and got an error telling me the new password couldn't be the same as the old one.

>> German by percentage uses as much natural gas as France

False. France uses around 28% non-nuclear (2018 numbers).

Germany uses on average ~65% non-"green" (last I checked) of which the vast majority is gas (especially recently now that they shut down their nuclear). There's no way that France is using equal or more. Not in relative numbers nor in absolute numbers. Source please?

Just to be clear: we're not talking installed potential energy conversion capacity. We're talking actually produced electricity.

>> The reliability of nuclear is a myth, France had to shut down >60% of their nuclear power plants this summer.

So because France fails to do proper maintenance for decades, that suddenly means that nuclear in general is unreliable?

France has had serious nuclear conversion running non-stop for over 40 years and because a lot of that is down for a few months (due to dumb delayed maintenance), that means nuclear is suddenly "unreliable"?

>> If nuclear cost 3x as much as renewables why would I not buy 3 times the capacity in renewables.

Because even with 10.000x the required capacity in renewables you would still need something for base-load. And that something needs to be able to convert ~100% of your energy need for the entire country when your renewables are doing ~0% (exaggerating to make a point). Which is the root-cause of the EU energy crisis (German base load = mostly gas).

Another reason is that "renewables" are not actually renewable at all and have a limited operational life, economic life and huge recycling problems (most solar panels installed now cannot be recycled. At all. Just to give an example).

>> I seriously doubt it will be even within the same order of magnitude of current nuclear prices.

> name one native Linux port that works just fine on Fedora 37 when it was built for Ubuntu 16.04.

That really depends on what you mean by "built for Ubuntu 16.04". If you mean compiled on Ubuntu 16.04 with the default toolchain and just the resulting binary dumped on Steam then sure, that might not work today (but even then, the Steam runtime might be old enough). If you mean released when Ubuntu 16.04 but using best practices (bundle what you use except base system libs, statically link what you can including the C++ stdlib, don't export symbols you don't need) then I can go find many such games.

> For an example of this, read Mike Rose about the game Defenders. Linux was 0.8% of sales, but over 50% of technical complaints.

Complaints or bug reports? Because the culture about reporting bugs is very different between Linux and Windows. Personally I prefer people telling me about problems with my software. And if your problem is that this creates too much work to track the bugs then do what valve did: Create a public community-curated bug tracker.

> Whereas, if they dumped it for a Proton build, the onus is no longer on them for a working Linux build or for compatibility issues on Linux - its way easier to just say YMMV.

And if it does break then the Linux players are left without recourse unless the game is big enough that Valve makes it a priority. As a user I am going to keep rewarding those developers that at least pretend that they will give a shit if their update breaks the game for me.

> Blaming developers for the lack of native games is like the pot calling the kettle black. Until Linux becomes a decent platform to build for, developers aren't interested in rewriting major parts of their games every time the Linux community has a new idea.

There were many native ports during the Steam Machine gold rush. And many ports being done by a single person in not too much time. I remain unconvinced that the lack of ports is really about technical issues (even if I agree that there is room for improvement) but rather about lack of business interest due to the tiny market share. Don't tell me that you can squeeze your port into the limited hardware and arbitrary restrictions of a handheld console but can't manage to wrangle library dependencies. It's about incentives, not the size of the problems.
I have been in your shoes. Here is what I suggest:

Do not start if you don't have 6 months of your cash flow in the bank.
Do not start if you have outgoing monthly commitments like home loan, credit card outstanding, bank loans, medical expenses, etc. put together at 50% or more of your monthly earning.
Do not start if you don't see regaining your current monthly earning within 6 months.

Trust me this has worked for me and 100s of others whom I have mentored/coached since last 15 years.
That rule was softened, so there are a bunch of apps like Pyto, Pythonista, Python2IDE, Swift Playgrounds (doesn't quite count since it's by Apple) that let you run code on the device.

That is the compiler itself sortof creating "ad hoc" modules to cache parts of the source code, ideally even inside a single compilation unit, which especially helped with template heavy code. This way completely new code could be sped up, which with ccache would never get a cache hit.

However that project is based on an old version of clang and the changes were never upstreamed (initially it was a commercial product), so sadly this project is practically dead.
Fuck 'em :)

I'm no Bitcoin maxi or "crypto will kill traditional finance in 5 years" type, or even really a get rich quick chaser (it'd be nice, but I've lived in reality for too long to expect anything like that) but I'm smart enough and humble enough to recognise it's a brand new thing (even 13 years later) that will grow and evolve to find its own niche or niches and then they will grow and evolve and fragment as all things do.

Cryptocurrency isn't going away, and Bitcoin has the 'original' going for it, the Veblen good association unrelated to any other pro or con argument. Ethereum is the 'original' smart contract version of Bitcoin, already an evolution of function, and has an ecosystem of vast proportions that any other smart contract platforms are a long way away from reaching (although getting closer faster than Ethereum is moving away).

It's interesting to watch and there are a lot of smart developers working on difficult problems in the space.

I'll also admit that I'm not smart enough to understand the intricacies of things like ZK proofs, but I somewhat understand their applicability in the space and look forward with interest to seeing whats possible when such technologies are applied to cryptocurrencies in practise.

I'm rambling, but I want you to feel comfortable sharing here. I want to harvest the down votes on behalf of all those chilled.
> Other Instant Pot users: what am I missing? Is the main advantage supposed to be that you can prepare meals fast because it’s a pressure cooker? Or should I pull it out and give it another shot?

I don't like to use the pressure cooker for meat, for exactly the reasons you state. For one, higher heat of an oven produces different chemical changes, which generally taste better; for two, with pressure cooking, a lot of the fat seeps out of the meat and ends up in the broth, leaving it tough and tasteless. I feel the same way for potatoes and sweet potatoes -- I much prefer the flavor which the higher temperature of the oven brings.

That said, my wife actually prefers chicken / potatoes / sweet potatoes cooked in the pressure cooker; so when we buy a chicken, if I get to it first it's baked, and if she gets to it first it's pressure cooked. :-)

Where the pressure cooker shines is cooking grains and beans: quinoa, freekeh, chickpeas, black beans, kidney beans, lentils, etc. They all take a really long time to cook on the stovetop; but take quite a reasonable amount of time on the pressure cooker. (In fact, we bought our pressure cooker when we were experimenting with a "plant-based" diet.). But then you're not done: you still have to add fat and flavoring.

I guess that comparing it to the cost of setting up a super long power line and maintaining it (sabotages, fires, whatever), maybe it's interesting.
Some thoughts:

1. The blast radius appears to be very minimal, the affected github package has 0 stars, 2 contributers, 1 watcher and 4 issues total.

2. The issue was caught and resolved quickly (within a day?).

3. I haven't seen any explanation by the developer on whether there account was compromised?

It isn’t restricted to Steam keys. It’s anytime you sell the same game for a net cheaper price elsewhere on the internet.

This is the dominant reason that the Epic store isn’t taking off, because Steam is enforcing network effects. Devs can’t switch and so customers won’t switch.

I've been using Mozilla's extension[0] that contains everything Facebook-related automatically with Firefox containers and it's been working great.

This morning I looked for a similar extension for Google and I've found this fork[1] of Mozilla's extension. It's working as expected so far but I'd love for it to be officially maintained by Mozilla at some point. There is an open issue about it[2].

Well, I can't see the value of wasting so much energy for something looking for problems to solve.

The idea is nice, but has no applications, esp. in Finance. Also the idea of replacing monetary systems built since the beginning of written history in a decade with cryptocurrencies is a bit naive.

This is a fantastic example of motivated reasoning. This "change" (which apparently isn't even new) can have so many different reasons, some of which are less harmful and some of which are probably worse (privacy-wise) than the one mentioned here. There is no indication that re/mis-using permissions is specifically what they wanted to do here, there is also no example of them doing it right now. Don't get me wrong, there is also no evidence that this isn't the real reason and that they wouldn't do that in the future. But the blog post basically list a single symptom and jumps right to the one conclusion that fits what the author expects.
> from a zero-comprehension state is more likely to get you to a goal than an evolution from a state that has at least some correctness.

I get that starting from a point with "some correctness" makes sense if you want to use such information (e.g. a standard starting point). However, such information is a preconceived solution to the problem, which might not be that useful after all. The fact is that you indeed might not at all need such information to find an optimal solution to a given problem.

> by setting a goal and a context we have already applied constraints.

I might be missing your point here since the goal and constraints must come from the real world problem to solve which is independent from the method to solve the problem. Unless you're describing p-value hacking your wait out, which is a broader problem.

> Now these games won't even launch on a modern Mac because they are still 32-bit binaries that were never updated.

The cost of updating all games ever released and of maintaining a 32-bit compat layer is so incomparable that dropping that layer only makes sense because they expect other companies to bear that cost.

Same for Ubuntu or other Linux distros wanting to drop x86 - makes things slightly easier for them but an absolute insane move for the overall ecosystem.
If you think that you can catch criminals by setting criminals, then you're not going to have a good time in life.

If you truly think that Americans should have the moral authority to call out Russians for their war crimes, to the point that the nation is being prepared for war conditions against Russia in the immediate future, then Americans should not be committing war crimes every twenty minutes. They should be better than the Russians on this subject.

The trouble is, they are really not better. They are worse. America kills more innocent people, on a more regular basis - for the last twenty years - on the basis of lies and falsehoods, than Russia and China combined.

Americans, and indeed the willing Western coalition which supports the war crime-committing aparatus at the core of the US' economy, simply don't have the moral authority to challenge any other nation on this issue. It is the height of hypocricy, and will simply never work.

Want to do something effective about Russia or China? Set your own example. At the moment, the world is following America's lead in starting aggressive wars, it isn't following America's lead on peaceful activities.

You set the precedent by allowing the illegal invasion and subsequent murder of 5% of Iraq's population. Russia isn't doing in Ukraine anything that the USA and its criminal allies haven't already done in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Yemen, etc...

Clean that up and you might have a valid point about Russia and China. Ignore it all, and the world simply sees you as the pathetic nation of cowardly hypocrites that you are.
The good old golden handcuffs
Baking at least you can open the oven to take a quick look, and even use an oven thermometer to see how well done it is. (I've recently discovered that you can use an oven thermometer when baking bread, which has been amazing!)

With a pressure cooker, it takes several minutes to depressurize, and the required seal precludes using a wired oven thermometer. So you just have to kind of guess and hope, which often means things are slightly over-cooked (since that's safer than slightly under-cooking).
