IMO it applies to anything/everything "crypto" - it's all just unregistered securities lying/pretending to be commodities. It's all just scams.

Bitcoin, however, truly is a commodity and is decentralized.
Bitcoin does not have Turing-complete scripting. It's impossible to build complex applications on top of Bitcoin, and no, sidechains don't count (they don't inherit Bitcoin's security). It's great that there's 21M supply cap. Fantastic for a gold-like digital asset. But absolutely useless for software engineers to build financial primitives on top of.

The law doesn't spell out that you have a key to the unit, only access to it. For all the law cares you might have a passcode, retina scan, or button or other non-key device to gain access. But if you agree in your rental agreement that the access requires you to ask a front desk employee then it's solid as far as the law is concerned.
D3, B9, Omega3s, CQ10, zinc, ALA, melatonin, catechin reduce cardiovascular risk
> A total of 884 randomized controlled intervention trials evaluating 27 types of micronutrients among 883,627 participants (4,895,544 person-years) were identified. Supplementation with n-3 fatty acid, n-6 fatty acid, l-arginine, l-citrulline, folic acid, vitamin D, magnesium, zinc, α-lipoic acid, coenzyme Q10, melatonin, catechin, curcumin, flavanol, genistein, and quercetin showed moderate- to high-quality evidence for reducing CVD risk factors.

> n-3 fatty acid supplementation decreased CVD mortality (relative risk [RR]: 0.93; 95% CI: 0.88-0.97), myocardial infarction (RR: 0.85; 95% CI: 0.78-0.92), and coronary heart disease events (RR: 0.86; 95% CI: 0.80-0.93).

> Folic acid supplementation decreased stroke risk (RR: 0.84; 95% CI: 0.72-0.97)

> coenzyme Q10 supplementation decreased all-cause mortality events (RR: 0.68; 95% CI: 0.49-0.94)

> Vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, and selenium showed no effect on CVD or type 2 diabetes risk

I would say the only merit to that is one plan for Ethereum mainnet’s roadmap is to introduce pruning, deleting old data for real, specifically smart contract states and held variables

This seems like it would break many smart contracts sometime later this decade, this isn't currently fleshed out

That aside, no other EVM is planning to do that, all code is compatible on all of them, and it doesn’t matter what Ethereum’s blockchain does

I would argue that this might also have been due to Neuralink recently announcing their updates where a monkey was shown to be operating a Neuralink device. Remember, Elon Musk has been politically controversial wayy before he got hold of Twitter. Since 2020 when he flouted Covid policy, he has been controversial politically. So since that time, there is a possibility that any regulatory action against him would have been considered politically expedient. Hence, one can argue instead that it is politically expedient to claim any action against him to be policially motivated.

There was a theory back in the early days that smoking provided nitric oxide, which had beneficial effects re: covid. The Vitamin D comment here also tied nitric oxide to vitamin d and uva/uvb.

Shutting down is used infrequently, so there is some logic in putting it farther away.

Now let's look at a few things that never made it into Windows :)

The desktop was special. If you move a folder or a file there, it would remember the original location of it. Later you could select things on the desktop and choose "Put Away" from the menu to move them back into their original locations. The idea was that you could do that to organize the work the way you do it traditionally: bring the current work on the desk, work on it, then file away.

If this sounds like it would break file references, no, it wouldn't. On Mac applications normally remembered files by their internal ID, so you could rename a file or even move it into a different folder and still find it via the 'recent' files in your app.

Files and folders were "things"; this is why there was always one window for a folder. If you open a file or a folder, the icon of it changed into an outline to show that it is currenly open and there is a full-scale window for it somewhere. If you clicked the icon, it would trace the way to that window.

The window of a folder remembered its settings, including the manual arrangement of icons inside. Together with color labels they made it very easy to organize small sets of files. (I do realize this won't scale to today's millions of files, but I indeed miss it for smaller projects.)
> unregistered securities lying/pretending to be commodities

Let's assume you're correct. Tell me why having globally distributed securities be registered with the United States Securities Exchange Commission is 1) practical for people outside the U.S. or even desirable for the other 95% of the world population and 2) beneficial to people within the U.S. who do not have access to $1M in capital to be considered "accredited investors".
Brown University becomes first Ivy League school to add official caste protectio
Wow, so that's what did it. That's absurd. You know, sometimes I regret looking too deeply into the firmware and hardware side of development. Makes me wonder if I'm not also sitting atop a ticking time bomb I haven't prepared for because the failure mode is so orthogonal to the otherwise entirely reasonable model of the hardware that I can also actually fit inside my head in a reasonable amount of time. Not a very comfortable feeling.
I do believe it is a language model, and not a repository of pure fact, but it remembers context, because it is designed for conversation. It is augmented to remember things that you have talked about, thus, your current talking points/interests.

For example: you talk about philosophers. Then you refer to them as "they". From then on, it will remember the context whenever you refer to philosophers as "they". When pressed, it will repeat your mantra of "I am just a language model, I can't possibly remember context" while it clearly does, either by design or emergence.
IMO the toughest hurdle is problem specification. Here are two levels of toughness:

1. Advent of Code. Extremely well spec'd problems that require solid intelligence on many levels to solve.

2. Typical tasks on the job. These are spec'd abysmally compared to AoC.

I just saw that estimate for atoms in an average human body is on the order of 10^27. I didn’t expect that the whole body is 100,000x atoms compared to the eye.

By weight (68kg/28g) the body is only about 2500x the size of an eye.
Because people did a bunch of small, poor-quality studies that seeded to show improvement. But when we did larger scale, properly controlled, randomized studies, where we gave people vitamin D, it didn't show much of an effect.

And yet people persist in different theories why it is so. I don't know the mechanism, but randomized, placebo-controlled studies currently are gold standard in medicine. Their results are much more trustable than many observations studies. Sometimes we cannot do randomized studies and observational studies is all we can do but if if we can and research report only observational studies, I take with a big dose of salt.

> You can’t help everyone

So what? Do we do nothing at all in life, because it cannot be done perfectly? And I'm not sure you are correct; we probably could help at least the vast majority. Why aren't we? Why stand around debating it. Let's act!

> it’s unfair to expect those living normal lives to suffer because drug addicts exist.

It's life, it's the world you are born into - none other ever has existed. Let's raise ourselves up, and especially abandon the absurd trend - is there a more vicious and dangerous one? - of lacking empathy. I understand disruption; it's a tool; what are we trying to accomplish by eliminating empathy?

You and I need empathy too; we give it, in great volume, and maybe in life we get a little back. We live in the real world, not on an island, and this is very much part of the world. We're expected to do these things - it's necessary, basic life and responsibility, along with being humane and responsible. You weren't born into a pain-free, suffering-free world. Civilization, society, your community runs on these efforts, whether you realize it or not - if not, you are sitting back while others do the hard work. And you cause your share too (including trying to take away others' freedom and dignity) and so do I. These are vulnerable people; they need help and support; they might not be nice, and God knows who is deserving. I'm not throwing any stones.

As the owner of a couple parrots, I can concur. Even parrots, who are supposed to be relatively tame still get into all sorts of trouble, are quite loud and will bite for no apparent reason (sometimes to hurt, other times to just show affection).

I love my birds, but they're definitely not the pet for everyone. I'd encourage anyone thinking of adopting one to volunteer at a rescue first to get a better idea of whether they're the right pet for your lifestyle.

> Bitcoin does not have Turing-complete scripting

Feature not a bug. Base layer that will serve as foundation for entire global economy should be as simple as possible to make it as reliable as possible. Like all complex systems, functionality is added in layers. Things like lightning network and fedimints are examples of such layers.

> It's great that there's 21M supply cap.

Fixed supply is an essential requirement for the entire system to have any merit whatsoever. If supply can change at direction of core group of insiders it's just the same thing as the existing fiat banking system and the real value of the tokens will be diluted in perpetuity.

> But absolutely useless for software engineers to build financial primitives on top of.

No. See comment above about layers.

Bitcoin is a commodity, ETH & all of crypto is just (unregistered) securities lying/pretending to be commodities.
I keep being shocked at how expensive PCBA is in the US. Even setting aside the low-volume prototyping stuff. I just priced out a board on macrofab, and without adding any parts (so no parts cost added) they're quoting me $10/board once I reach the max volume discount of 400 boards. Meanwhile JLCPCB has me down in the $4/board zone at 50 boards, and by 400 boards it's nearing $2/board (with a BOM around $1/board).

I knew US manufacturing was going to be more expensive, but every place i've priced it out has has me stunned at how cheap people like JLC and PCBway have been able to get things.

For the price US places charge, I could buy my own pick and place machine.

Can you name one practical product built on top of ChatGPT? I don't even want to knock the tech, I think they're both fantastic, but blockchain has far more product-market fit than chatbots do. Not only that, but in a world of ever increasing and convincing AI deep fakes, a ledger with built-in cryptographic identity primitives will become increasingly useful for identifying, timestamping, and hashing authentic content in a plausibly neutral way.
Having a roadmap is no merit. A roadmap means the system is centralized because a core group of people can change the rules. If it's centralized it's not censorship resistant and the supply can't be guaranteed to not increase and dilute holders therefore it's garbage.
Thank you for this hazily remembered summary of the most recent "Money Stuff" newsletter
That's remarkable. I wonder if there could be a market for a device actually built with doing this in mind? Or at least a "recycling" service provided by a manufacturer that buys back the drive to put the old wine into a new bottle, so to speak, and create a new market for these "used" drives? Surely Google or Amazon would appreciate the profits that could come from getting more from their hardware investment like this.
The buttons that made windows bigger/smaller are not quite that. The button toggles between the natural (smallest) size of a window that is sufficient to display all the contents and the last size other than minimal. It was very convenient for document windows. E.g. you have a spreadsheet with a few rows and columns and lots of white space: click that button and the window shrinks to display only the contents, leaving the empty cells hidden. It's also good for Finder windows that have only a few icons.

If you hold down the Option/Alt key, it will try to resize to the largest possible size, similar to maximize.
The majority of the work in games is making assets and delivering code. Neither of these have fun as a KPI.

Further, defining fun as a KPI presents challenges of sociology, psychology, and philosophy: People are happy to exclaim "this is fun!" And then quit playing within a few minutes. Absent a very, very careful understanding of the belief structures that drive the combination of purchase and interest that makes someone a "fan", the metric degrades to raw "engagement", which leads to meetings where it is determined that the engagement metric should be boosted through the introduction of gambling-style addictive loops.

In other words: lots of people like playing good games. Almost nobody knows precisely why they like a game, and therefore they do not know how to make a game equivalent to what they like. What the industry does instead is to clone whatever worked last time and try to give it a twist or add a little more scope. Whatever formula worked for another game, everyone is going to try adding to theirs, whether or not it's sensible. Specific game teams manage to see farther and make exceptional work by dint of being able to frame the discussion appropriately, so that it brings in everyone's perspective. Without that, every meeting is just a discussion of deliverables. But in many, many cases, the team has to make the game twice to be able to sink their teeth into the problem. Hence the common thing of game sequels being much better than the first entry.

I've worked on games, huge productions, which ended up receiving really low ( and well-deserved) review scores.

Everyone knew it was about to happen, but this was a multi-year product where everyone had been pointing out the issues more than early enough but management simply wouldn't hear it. Concerns about unrealistic scope, poor design, etc. were met with demands that we believe in the game and put our backs into it.

Even then, I did find myself enjoying the game and every now and then lost track of what I was supposed to be testing (as a software engineer testing my changes, not QA) and simply lose track of time playing the game.
This is a distinction I also grew up with, I think it's a regional thing.

Pretty sure it grew as something like, "apartment" != "apartment building", where the second is read as "(adjective) (noun)" instead of as a compound noun, and just describes the physical layout of the whole building, while just "apartment" is describing the individual units and has an implied rent-not-buy.
Definitely. That's why this is basically the only context where it makes sense to say something like "give or take an order of magnitude" lol
Ignore all the other answers and skip straight to this one. Math Academy is amazing. It's got everything you could want (mastery based learning, knowledge graph dependencies, assessment tests, a hint of gamification to encourage you to learn more, even spaced repetition reviews) and its coverage and depth of the material is _excellent_.

For specific example, I've literally studied linear algebra probably close to a dozen times in my life, including full courses from two different universities whose names end with "institute of technology", and I'm currently using math academy to review the subject again. I've already encountered several things that are straight up new to me, and the presentation/practice and spaced repetition review of the things I just never managed to lock into my long term memory is already helping me finally own them.
Saying 'workflow' misses the point and seems to almost intentionally miss the point by turning the criticism into a criticismmof something trivial or a mere preference instead of the fundamental wrong that it is.

The internet and the cloud are great and super convenient. But that is a seperate issue from companies steering everyone into actually requiring good internet speed and lots of bandwidth cap, and the consumption of subscription storage space, or worse free storage space where ypu are the product, not because ypu choose to but because no other option is even presented.

The critique was not about some preferred sequence of buttons to click no different from any other sequence. I decline to believe you didn't understand that when you said "workflow".
The Digital Antiquarian agrees with you:

> But, rather amazingly, Cryo’s Dune defies any knee-jerk prejudices that might be engendered by knowledge of Philippe Ulrich’s earlier or later output. While it’s every bit as unique a design concept as you might expect given its place of origin, in this case the concept works. For all that they spent the better part of three years at one another’s throats more often than not, Dune nevertheless wound up being a true meeting in the middle between the passionate digital artistes of Cryo and the more practical craftsmen in Virgin’s Anglosphere offices. For once, an exemplar of the French Touch has a depth worthy of its striking surface. Dune plays like a dispatch from an alternate reality in which Cryo cared as much about making good games in a design sense as they did about making beautiful and meaningful ones in an aesthetic and thematic sense — thus proving, should anyone have doubted it, that these things need not be mutually exclusive.
