Banks and Megacorps?

Are we all going to just forget 2008 and the simple fact that this technology was created to counter the UK's baiput policy (it's written in the genesis block!) and subsequent inflation tht is due to the rampant increase in money creation PRIMARILY made to bail-out businesses who couldn't or didn't have any savings and were on the verge on bankruptcy at the onset of COVID? The people got crumbs by comparison (extended UI benefits and some never got them at all) and were allowed to enter a roaring hot stock market created by tis glut f Capital pumped into the system and busineses lookign for yield any where they can find it and the minority of this sector (home owners) benefited from the sky high real estate appreciation boom, but it's peak tech-bro to say it was the average person who was the benefactors of any of this (some Industries were completely obliterated and many died in order to return to work despite being deemed essential workers) when it's clear it's the parasitic banking and corporations who are the ones that benefit the most.

I agree that 'crytpo' has been a misused moniker to describe the entirety of cryptocurrencies, but if you have anything but cursory knowledge on any of it and can resist letting yourself be swayed by click bait-headlines you'll realize that it's Bitcoin separated from the rest of crypto.
Beef is different from pork and chicken and turkey. Why can't these new meats stop trying to be beef, and just be tasty? A different kind of tasty is ok.

A world without political control on the money supply is a vastly inferior one to either (1) no control; (2) automated control; or (3) control by gold miners.

(1) leads to great depressions (mass poverty, famine, etc.); (2) leads to feudalism; and (3) to colonialism, war and poverty.

Political control over the money supply is one of the most stabilising, peaceful and moral inventions of the 20th century.

For human history the poor have been destroyed by deflationary currency which was always better to bury than invest (see, for example, Jesus' story of the talents (coins) where he recommends burying rather than investing -- incomprehensible today, but sane with metal currency).

The trans-A slave trade was a more-or-less direct result of the massive inflation of the discovery of gold in the americas which made labour impossible to pay.

People discovering rocks in the ground is no basis on which to design a world-wide political system; and the origin of a vast amount of evil. Comparatively, central banks targeting 2% inflation is an unalloyed good.

I hate scammers with unbridled fury, but I will not transact with any bank that thinks it can impose what I do with my own money.

Do they remember this thing called asking? I will respect the opinion of bankers and investors if they ask me, or I ask them, but ultimately the decision should be mine.

Otherwise it is going to the banking equivalent of Google's customer service. Callous, automated, unreachable.

Yes, I understand that, but they are also probably not the kind of people who would like their identity hidden. Acting in public while staying anonymous is creating a power disbalance. It can be justified in some cases, like for activists or journalists facing a greater power disbalance, but I can't imagine a good reason for economic activity (other than purely personal consumption) to stay private.

Poll: Kubernetes or Bare Metal
I'm curious to know how many people here are advocates for Kubernetes or would prefer bare metal. I've seen some signs of a move to simpler architectures for self hosted software, often just running a bare metal server or a VM. I was a huge advocate for cluster based cloud platforms early on in the life of Kubernetes just because of exposure to Google and this love of scale, but now as an individual I'm leaning back in the direction of something simpler with less moving parts. Interested to hear what others think.
I watched the video. The idea is quite good. I would skip all the talk and just demo the product to see if people like it... show , not tell!

Does she defend the claim, that she really saw a snow leopard in the mountains in the full article / website text?

Randomness need not cause anxiety and/or confusion. Think of the sound of rain or waves reaching the beach. As always with the musical experience its an interplay between being familiar with a given sound scape and associating it with pleasurable feelings and the composed sound actually intentionally triggering such responses. My guess is that "aleatoric" composers simply have not struck the right random notes yet :-)
A great (sometimes) solution if you believe in Jesus, or whatever beliefs are tied to the religion you choose - but to many of us, whether happy or not with life, becoming religious just isn't a realistic option.

And given how often we find out that even religious leaders such as priests, yet alone general believers, are terrible people - whether white nationalists or sex offenders or terrorists or... well, pretty much any crime that humans sometimes commit, I'm not convinced that joining a group of religious people has a higher chance of success than joining any community group. If the Christians in your life are all lovely people then that's awesome, but there's plenty of awesome atheists / people who believe in other religions, and, as with religious people, plenty of nasty atheists too - I'm not suggesting religious people should be avoided or are more likely to be evil, just that I don't think religion is ever a good indicator for whether or not a local community is one you do or don't want to be a part of.

But sure, community groups in general do seem to be a positive thing for a huge number of people, religious or not, and if you do believe (or have a religious group that doesn't mind if you don't really believe and are happy with people who just want to be a good member of their community) then great.

I don't believe personally, but having read the bible and gone to a huge number of religious services (albeit always as a non-believer), I thing the world would be a better place if more people followed the guidance of Jesus in the bible. But I haven't seen evidence that people who believe in Jesus actually do follow his teachings more (nor less) than the average atheist.

> It's actually quite similar I'd say. The hypocrisy behind that one is strong too.

The City makes the rules, and it doesn't like competition in the only competitive sector they have left (finance), but you can rest assured they will get their cut while making it as difficult as possible for anyone to do so legally.

I really want people to see the inherit hypocrisy of this system, people get riled up about woke-based politics which is decisive and ultimately effective at letting these type of brazen injustices continue unabated.
> I'm pretty sure they could simply add to their terms of service "no refunds for crypto purchases" and that'd be understandable, legal, and enforceable.

It definitely wouldn't work. I'm sure they have similar conditions for "don't read your PIN out on the phone" but people still do and still often get refunded for it.
I dislike this style of journalism, they are creating a narrative that proposes a malicious intent to deceive by the photographer and artist, but provide zero evidence that that is the case. They bombard you with evidence of "something" and imply it means something else.

Here they are providing (compelling) evidence the photos are manipulated, but using that to imply that that manipulation was done to deceive. There is no evidence of that.

So she didn't explicitly say they were manipulated photos (initially), but she also didn't say they weren't.

The people at fault in this whole saga are the publications that published the photos without permission or checking their veracity and the author of this article who is suggesting malicious intent without evidence.

This article, while well researched and presented, just feels like gatekeeping by someone with a personal grudge.

As a society we really need to step back from the need to attack first.
> Actually no, they were not cherry picked. Except for generations which did not match the prompt at all

Second sentence describes process of selection. Is there difference in English between "filtered" / "selected" and "cherry picked"? Is "cherry picked" implying extreme filtering?
Definitely worth trying to learn!
As with most topics, it starts out seeming hard to grasp, and then you start naming things and recognizing them. What looks like jargon to an outsider is just a compressed way of communicating. The people in the community are smart and tend to compress their ideas really far which makes the jargon even more extreme.

Advanced gol is just getting past that first hurdle of understanding the densely compressed info behind the jargon. And it doesn't ever need to be done for all of the concepts. You can be versed in just one. I started out in a super specialized corner in self constructing spaceships. That said I'm a bit of a whiz in other areas so I can't be used as evidence that it works for everyone..
Black mark is exactly right. I wouldn’t hire someone who spent more than a couple of months at a crypto job — that’s enough time to realize what’s going on and get out. If they stayed longer, it invites the question of whether they’re gullible, incompetent, pathologically greedy, or too good at compartmentalizing.

Do you think “I was an accountant at Enron” is considered positive career experience in that field? Crypto is the equivalent in software engineering.

It's not just that I have high expectations of firefox, they claim to have high expectations of themselves. They heavily market themselves as being privacy friendly and often they have been, but they aren't always.

In this case, I agree that this is, largely, a "Good Thing" although not unqualified since some number of users who wouldn't have otherwise will end up repeatedly sending data to Google, probably without even being aware of it. The data they'd give up is (to me at least) small compared to the data they would have been surrendering to online translation services, but that's not really the point.

It just don't understand how they stared from "Protect your privacy from sites like translate.google.com by using this add-on to translate webpages locally!" and ended up at "Let's make firefox users connect to Google's servers every time they use this feature!" If you're creating a product designed for people concerned about their privacy, it should beyond obvious that making your users send data to Google is a problem.

It's not like they couldn't host those files themselves at mozilla.org or (as others have pointed out) just keep them locally and avoid making a bunch of unnecessary connections to a remote host entirely. If they'd done that it would also allow Firefox Translations to work when you aren't connected to the internet.

It's really not hate though. It's love and concern. I love Firefox, and I want it to do better!
> What is interesting is that amongst professional finance much of this has been apparent the whole time.

It is important to note, that even if from looking from far outside, finance looks like one thing, in reality there is a big divide within finance regarding how "value" is defined. On the other hand, there is a simple notion that value of a thing is whatever someone is willing to pay for it. And on the other hand, there is a bit more complex idea that if you somehow know the value of a cash flow, then if you are able to create the same cashflow in some other way, then the other cash flow must have same value.

The first one is the home of powerpoints, VC capital and crypto. (It's also easy to recognize these professional financiers once you start to discuss whether sweat equity should be valued similarly to cash equity. They are completely appalled with the idea, because reasons.)

The second is home of financial regulation, really fancy maths and modern banking risk management.

The failure modes are different here. The first one, typical failure model is scam. The second, well, you can google LTCM for that.

And what comes to crypto, there is a clear and obvious difference. The first ones see no reason why not investing into crypto, after all, someone is paying 60k for a BTC, its value is thus 60k, what more do you want? The second ones scratch their heads. They see no positive net cash flows anywhere, thus the value must be negative. And this is the reason (in addition to regulation) why banks and professional bankers for the most part keep clear from crypto and struggle seeing value, while VC money is/was pouring in.

So, We would love your thoughts or feedback on how much Data Import functionality costs you.

This seems like junk reporting. The 3rd-author when informed 7 years ago, immediately took steps to correct the issue including supplying new images to the publisher. Which the journal never published, presumably because it didn't change the findings in any meaningful way.

Now somebody wants to injure the 3rd-authors image, so brings this up again with breathless headlines.

No, I'm sure this is junk reporting.
Wow, this is incredible advice. OP, I hope this resonates with you :) As someone also approaching 30 and fed up feeling burnt out, I needed to hear this.
fotoforensics.com is not robust in detecting fakes. This still requires human judgement.

Naively looking at what you see there and taking it for gospel very likely leads to both false positives and negatives. I think the assumption that you can just take any image, upload it to fotoforensics.com and know whether it's fake is dangerous.
A couple other comments alluded to this, but the advice I would give (as someone who felt lost when I was way younger and joined the Army to fix it) is to get in great shape. Doesn't have to be some crazy fitness goal, maybe something simple like "I want to be able to do 80 pushups without stopping".

For your health, obviously, this is good. But it's also a gateway to meeting new friends. Your weight lifting buddy suddenly invites you out to grab a beer or go to a ballgame, and suddenly his/her friends are your friends and then that longing for Monday starts to dissipate a bit. It can be a real gateway.

My point is, what are we going to replace those with? Especially leather & co. They have real life applications, they're not just fads. Plus, will those replacement products be sustainable? Vegan leather is just rebranded plastic, for example.

I'm equally curious, but I don't know the numbers, if replacing plastic packaging with paper/cardboard is environmentally sound. I remember back in the day efforts to reduce paper consumption, I think our sustainable paper production capacity was near its limits.

"all of the images are taken by me" is a lie. This images were not taken, they are at most collages of images taken by them.

They are also lying by omission and selective description.

In https://kittiyapawlowski.com/snow-leopard-series there is no mention whatsoever that images are fake collages.

On https://kittiyapawlowski.com/news-publications/published-in-... and https://kittiyapawlowski.com/ there is

- no mention that these image files are not photographs

- "Kittiya Pawlowski is a photographer and artist that uses visual storytelling" may be technically true but is lying by omission

- there is no clear description of images as misleading collages
> Are you really lost if you can point out you're lost?

Probably yes? If you're lost in the middle of a desert with no idea where to go to find the nearest people, knowing that you don't know doesn't somehow mean you're not lost. And I'm not sure how metaphorically lost in life is different?
A friendly reminder that all the recent drama has zero to do with crypto, rather 100% to do with corruption at a human scale by 3rd party services which are not in any way crypto, they are traditional financial services peddling cryto wares.

I really don't understand what place your bank has telling you where you're allowed to send money. If I want to throw a small percentage of my net worth into a hugely speculative investment then fine, why are they stopping me? Are they stopping me from using my bank card down at the dog tracks or at a casino? Can I withdraw cash for Poker but not blackjack?

Having said that, it's weird because I definitely have sent money from one of the banks that aren't crypto-friendly to Binance in the past, so who knows how strong these bans really are.
