I'm not a fan of Google - I think they have the best search technology but it's horribly corrupted by their ad and data theft focus, but search fills a very different use case than a chatbot. Google can be a question answerer, but that's certainly not what it's best at or what it's most useful for.

Google is an "intelligent portal". In 1998 when the internet wasnt really mapped, search engines actually were used largely for discovery. Now almost everybody knows a double digit number of main go-to sites for things, with a very long tail (say government sites) and google is mostly a portal into these. It doubles as a way to look up random facts, and as long as context isn't required I can see a chatbot doing the same.
Exercise is not solely about living longer, though an additional four years on average isn't exactly trivial.

The anecdotes abound about the positive impacts. Dismiss them in favor of scientific studies at your own peril.

My own anecdote: I lost 90 lbs and started lifting and it's done wonders for various aspects of my life. I recognize that my experience may not apply to everyone but it also seems reasonable given our evolutionary history that regular movement would have benefits.

> Debt is money from the future.

By the same token, money is debt from the past.

The origins of debt are ultimately material. Alice has a bushel of apples today, but Bob won't have a bushel of oranges until next month. The function of money is to decouple the general function of debt from its material details. In other words, you can have debt without money, but you cannot have money without an underlying debt.
Thanks for the raw data. That's a very wide range.

When I started digging into the specs for ActivityPub, it uses something called JSON-LD. Despite its name, it is essentially RDF encoded in JSON.

Wouldn’t that make ActivityPub a successor technology for RSS?

I would love to see details of iBoot. How they built a memory safe bootloader with just "a modified C toolchain" is a pretty important detail. Did add they another language to the toolchain or add a special --memory-safe flag to a forked C compiler?
Early mainframes read data on punch cards or tape files which were character-based (or possibly, binary-coded decimal). Two digits were used for the year to save memory.

My limitation for domains is SRS, I need to be able to redirect email to my inbox without paying for an additional service and without emails arriving as spam because of DMARC. Because of this I ended up at Google, which I don't really like because of their nonexistent support.

What's the new hotness if SRS is a requirement?

That's what happens when you decide to write your smart contract language in what is basically javascript and your smart contracts are interpreted in a stack based VM. Doubly so when your contract execution is entirely determined by the order in which Tx happen to get accepted.

It's actually sane when your contract is written in a non-turing-complete language with strong typing and the smart contract system has deterministic execution (i.e. you know the result when you submit the Tx and if the result would be different, the tx fails, preferably without charging you).

I'm convinced that one of the main issues with most smart contracts is that they have such weak guarantees and the guarantees they do have are brittle and hidden behind complex, opaque proofs & constraint systems.

What strings does this regex matches? (a|b)
regepxal is showing infinite matches and shows "baaaaaaa" as a match. Doesn't (a|b) means a or b?
* means match 0 or more times. So, it should be matching aa,aaa,bb,bbb, , etc?
I'm not getting how baaaa is a match. Can anyone clarify please?

You should not employ the same cynicism and skepticism towards random doomsayers as towards actual experts.

I feel like this is such an obvious thing to say. And if you’re seeing “donate here!”, then you’re not listening to someone who is into the science of it. (You may be listening to a well meaning and trustworthy charity, though; but it could also be grifters)

I’m pretty positive you’re retconning your past life. Because I remember the shit I was told 20 years ago and it’s on track: Summers of 40 degrees in France. Cold snaps in winter more frequent. Heat waves that are deadlier and more frequent. Swim gear in October. Stuff that wouldn’t have made sense back then.

So, either you’re lying to yourself about your past life, or, you listened to the wrong people; in both paths you became a denier (sorry, skeptic). I listened to the right people, I ended up trusting the system. Sounds to me like, while this is overall a systemic problem, you carry some amount of personal, introspective responsibility.

At least ITER has a plausible, in a sci-fi story sense, way of creating a sustainable fusion reaction to which more fuel could be given. The fact the neutrons produced, if it did reach the high Q ratios, would irradiate and break down everything involved, is probably 2070's scientists and engineers problems to solve.
I wasn't acquainted with them until roughly 6 months ago, but from what I've seen Coindesk has actually been an excellent publication.

I don't think the movement cares about centralized trust? Instead it's a movement of get rich quick schemes

There's some separate movement that cares about decentralization, but they're only tangentially affected because they didn't use FTX, and they don't value their crypto in terms of stuff it can buy, but how it makes them feel

The domain in question redirects to an entirely different domain. It doesn't actually seem to be used in any way other than for a quirky name.

Given that the domain has been registered for long enough to need renewal, I think this is just another domainer complaining that their scalper business model isn't working out. He got lucky Google messed up the conversion rate because of runaway inflation of the lira and he got a discount, had he paid in dollars this stunt would've cost him even more.

This isn't really what you said, you said "right-leaning and Republican" aren't synonyms, not that people don't fall neatly into the left/right dichotomy. The Republican party is objectively the right-leaning party of the US. If you're a journalist that mostly publishes articles aligning with Republicans talking points today, then it is fine to characterize that journalist as right-wing.

What facts did the OP provide to support the claim that YC was allowing YC startups to post job ads without salary ranges, allegedly in violation of NYC law? Go back to the original post and point out the supporting facts. That's how I can say it.

I have no stake in this. I pointed out that OP leveled an accusation against YC and some "YC startups" claiming that their job postings did not include salary ranges "when law requires it." With not a single referenced job posting or example that just stands as an unfounded accusation.

Again, no need to try to infer my motives or emotional state. Either the OP made an unsupported accusation or they did not. Easy enough to determine that from the post without projecting or speculating about my emotional state.
That sounds awfully like a call to violence.
> Note, at this time, these CVEs are not public

I'm not sure what the lag is, but from what I've seen all Apple CVE's are made public at some point. The last one I got before this bunch (from security-annouce@lists.apple.com) was a month ago (relating to iOS and iPadOS 16.1.1 addressing a libxml2 integer overflow - CVE-2022-40303). If you look up that CVE at mitre.org, it's no longer marked as "RESERVED".

Does anyone have examples of "good" OKRs for a developer / individual contributor worth sharing? Typical guidance I've seen is either generic to the point of uselessness or else involves numbers that are just completely outside the control of anyone in my role. The alternatives amount to one for one copies of Jira epics, which are too susceptible to the whims of product management or else personal growth stuff which is the first thing dropped when crunch time comes knocking. The obligation to write individual OKRs feels like providing a list of reasons to deny promotions when plans inevitably change over the course of an evaluation period. It's as if it were all smoke and mirrors for management to justify whatever it is they already wanted to do with you.
It's evidently some security researcher trying to cash in the Elon Musk hate for some street cred. Hoping some big news site links the post.

ChatGPT can answer this:

> Fission is currently the most common method of generating nuclear power, and it has been used in power plants for many years. It is a relatively well-understood technology and it can provide a large amount of energy with relatively little fuel. However, fission produces radioactive waste and the risk of accidents, such as the one that occurred at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan in 2011.

> In contrast, fusion has the potential to provide even more energy than fission and it produces very little radioactive waste. It is considered a safer and more sustainable source of energy than fission.
Because when the Y2K problem was created, computers had only recently been invented, every byte counted, and there was no history of software best practices.

Even by 1980, which was 5 years before any recorded mention of the Y2K problem, an IBM mainframe, of the kind a university might have, had only e.g. 4 MB of main memory, which had to support many concurrent users.

Such computers would have been unable to load even a single typical binary produced by a modern language like Go or Rust into its memory - yet they supported dozens of concurrent users and processes, doing everything from running accounting batch jobs, compiling and running programs in Assembler, COBOL, FORTRAN, PL/I, or APL, and running interactive sessions in languages like LISP or BASIC. Part of how they achieved all that was not wasting any bytes they didn’t absolutely have to.
Really poor argument, "oh biased source". Invading a country and colonizing their people. Can really destroy a local population. Ask Native Americans. Ask Kenyans. Ask the Phillipines. Britiain truly commited some upseakable horrors to the countries they invaded, and really push their idea of caucasian supremacy. Deny the truth all you want, the unmarked graves of native american children remain. The evil of the british empire is something we should condemn, but we conveniently ignore.

IME, it depends on your chain of command. I've literally been reprimanded in my career for asking questions. My boss at that time was crap. I didn't choose him. Asking questions can very likely get you fired.

Also got reprimanded for disobeying an order at once; my boss — same one as above — would not take "no, we are in a regulated industry, and I cannot do that" for an answer. I ended up going behind his back, getting the approvals he should have gotten himself, and once I'd secured those, granted him the access he wanted. I also tried to escalate to his boss (my grand-boss) … but he didn't respond until it was all moot.

But there is a lot of stress when you're fearing for your job, even though you're just trying to do things by the book. I'm inclined to side with engineers, to a degree: the chain of command's responsibility is to never put eng in that position. (Although here, the eng in question seems far higher up than I am. I'm just a bottom rung eng…)

> Developers presumably know how to think and have a vague idea of what the business does to know that a ask to futz with internal financials programmatically is fucking wierd.

They should but IME they often don't, and even if they do, people are lazy. It's a struggle to get people to do the things they should do some days.
Surely it is a vulnerability?

The behaviour everyone likely expects, in twitter & android, is that if you send a video to one person directly, then only that one specific person be able to access it.

It's not just crypto. The entire fintech space has an ideology that lines up far better with Silicon Valley than with Wall Street. The Wall Street mentality would dictate a very different course of action than the Silicon Valley mentality in many of the situations described in the cases brought by the DoJ and the SEC, and yet the Silicon Valley mentality seems to have been the guideline used by SBF/FTX -- perhaps because of a lack of experience dealing with customer funds, or perhaps due to ignorance of the seriousness of consequences.

Edge cases matter a lot more to Wall Street than to Silicon Valley. Wall Street is a world where the new hire on the desk gets a talking-to by the managing director for making an error that could have led to a big loss, and where people are regularly reminded not to put anything in writing that they wouldn't want to see on the cover of the New York Times. Silicon Valley is a world where "move fast and break things" is a central mantra, and sometimes those things that get broken are the rules.

none of what anyone said is about a self-sustaining reaction.

this is about more power leaving the reaction chamber than what entered it. that's all the announcement is about.

this is NOT about how much energy it takes to ready the lasers. this is NOT about the electricity consumed by lighting, computers, cooling, or measurement or anything else-- none of that counts when you are measuring the efficiency of the reaction itself.

this is about more energy leaving the reaction chamber than went in.

understanding that is key to understanding the significance of the announcement, and this is significant.

and I maintain that the poster I originally called arrogant is arrogant, because they indicated in their comment that they knew how to calculate reaction efficiency better than the physicists doing the work. I called it arrogant because it is --objectively-- an arrogant position to take.

if that makes me arrogant, then so be it. my arrogance is independent of theirs and has no bearing on comments made before my own, and my comment did not influence theirs. (they were being arrogant before I pointed it out.)
Geometric algebra (GA) is a structure you add on top of a regular vector space. It was repopularized by David Hestenes in the 60s and 70s as a different method for describing spacetime (for physics).

The basic observation of GA is this: in R^3 we've got scalars and vectors — but a vector is really a 1D subspace of R^3; so, the question is: why aren't there 0-, 2-, and 3- dimensional subspaces of the "usual" R^3 vector space 'in the algebra'? The answer to that question is a new thing called a Clifford algebra (the basis of GA), which we write like "CL(R^3)".

David Hestenes noticed that CL(R^3) has a lot of physically-useful properties (although, he used CL(R^3;3,1) — the "3,1" describe the underlying metric/inner-product of the space; and sometimes, a conformal 5D space, instead).

The basic object of GA is a "multivector": it is a "polynomial" of different subspaces: `A + BV + CV^V + DV^V^V ... ZV^...^V`. GA defines a special "multiplication" of the "polynomials" which is called the geometric product. The geometric product has a bunch of useful properties.

However, as opposed to what the a sibling comment implies, the dimensionality of Clifford algebras is 2^N for an N-dimensional carrier. Thus, CL(R^3) is eight dimensional. The "nice" 5D conformal Clifford algebra is 32 dimensional. The inner-product is a square matrix with sides equal to the dimensionality of the Clifford algebra. Thus, what you might call a "dot product" in R^3 is an 8x8 matrix multiply in CL(R^3); for physically interesting algebras, it is a 32x32 matrix multiply.
My hope is that some programmer dictator will instate a form of the discordian calender:

- All 5 seasons are the same length
- The days of the year always fall on the same week day, as the week is 5 days long
- the year always starts with the first day of the week.
- the leap day is not assigned a day

Things I would change though:
- start the year at winter solstice.
- put the leap day at the end of the year.

Of course there are tradeoffs between MCF and ICF. They involve different sets of challenges to achieve viable fusion energy production. Neither has been demonstrated to have commercial viability to date. The consensus view that MCF is more viable is rooted in the much better understanding of how to comercialize a MCF reactor.

Right!?

I always thought it meant something like "enough money to tell literally anybody to go fuck themselves without fear of the economic consequences". But I did a little googling and apparently "fuck you money" is one of those things that doesn't really have a clear-cut definition. Which is weird.

In theory there is some specific dollar that you earn which puts you over the line into "fuck you" money. If you're a dollar away from financial independence, are you worried about saying "fuck you" to your boss? Hell no! Which must mean that you're already safely in "fuck you" territory.

So that the magical greenback--the one with the serial number ending in "FU"--must come way earlier. Maybe it's the buck that puts your bank account into five figures for the first time. Or the one that tops off your 6-month emergency fund. Hell, if the dollar that puts you in the dos commas club doesn't send a surge of "fuck you" power running through your veins... you might just not be the "fuck you" type.

>A bad actor can steal the voting tokens, and decide the vote. Even without that, I can't assume that the voters are aligned to my interests

Right, but all those attacks are harder to pull off and more visible than what the parent implied (ie. someone can unilaterally make changes without anyone finding out). Like I said in my previous comment, there are many issues with smart contracts, but the objection raised by OP is just really badly conceived.

>Even without that, I can't assume that the voters are aligned to my interests

This seems like an impossible demand to me. What type of system (democratic/non-democratic, crypto/non-crypto) ensures that the decision made will always align with everyone's interests?
