Whether it's currency or non-currency property, the question is whether you received digital assets.

If you received a digital balance in a bank account, you've received digital assets. They are not issued by a central bank nor are they fiat. So by your definition you gave, they are in fact digital assets, and you have to check the checkmark! That's my point.

You can try to argue that digital bank balances in a database are not digital assets, but I wouldn't risk it.

ZK-IMG: Attested Images to Fight Disinformation
I can't see how this is simpler or more effective than having 5 state fields, each with a timestamp. I guess it would make writing the query slightly easier, but you can put your clause for any given state into a builder function anyway.

What's the motivation for having an enum then holding in some other system a history of when that enum changed?
You are either being deliberately obtuse or truly ignorant, given how you have missed the main points of the argument and engaged in strawman fallacies. It is probably the latter, since you have implied (by 'go-to response') that people are commonly asking you to re-read what they said. A strong hint that you are the problem.

Besides the original comment, you can also read the multiple comments elsewhere in this thread making similar points. I am not too hopeful it will help, since your reading comprehension is obviously lacking.

Clearly, the all-too-common combination of stupidity and arrogance is alive and present in you. It is embarrassing how someone who have lost the plot then turns around and says that it is the other party that has lost the argument. Too stupid to understand and arrogant enough to inflict your ignorance on others. Thankfully, many of the users here easily recognized your hubris. No, it is you who are done. How humiliating.
They say that they don't see much evidence of wash trading on regulated exchanges so it seems regulation is good enough to solve a lot of these problems.
Yeah, I feel like we're living in a shadow disaster, where everything is screwed up but nobody's talking about it. Health care centers are still completely overwhelmed with 3-8 hour waits (in small cities, not even huge cities). Call centers can't take calls. Getting into supermarkets in large cities means walking around literal piles of human feces. It just goes on and on.
If a non-exhaustive list leaves something off, that doesn't automatically mean it isn't reflected in the more general category. By definition, it's not exhaustive, so if you get the pattern wrong, too bad. Or maybe there is no "right" answer and they make it up as they go along.

Here is a non-exhaustive list of Tasty Foods: Fruits, Vegetables, Meat. If you had a Tasty Food, you have to report it. You had fish. Should you report it?
This is my street. 2 lanes each way with a turn lane, goes to 3 (no parking) during rush hour. The right lane is usually pretty empty so people go fast to get to the light. Left turners will be turning through 2 stopped lanes of traffic and not see the cars flying down the right lane. At least once a month there is an accident. Tried calling a few city departments to report it but couldn't find the right one.

There are some things that Lazarus/Free Pascal does right:

- It has the most sane strings you'll ever see, you don't have to allocate them, and they can hold gigabytes of text.

- You'll never confuse equality tests = with assignment :=

- It's case insensitive

- It doesn't do macros

- It is one of the fastest compilers available

- It is one of the best GUI builders available

Things it doesn't do right

- Begin/End seems verbose to some people

- Other "standard" pascal systems gave it a bad name

- Historically, Borland et al, priced people out of their products and killed off a loyal use base.

Thanks for the great write up!
Because they first have to form a whitelist (licensing scheme) before they can put pressure. If no drone manufacturers need to register, for instance, then they can produce drones that can fly anywhere. But once they get all of them to register, then whatever unregistered drone manufacturers still make drones can be excluded from the wider ecosystem.

Thus, for example, they can't just tell browser makers to "ban websites we don't like". But if they make everyone register an https certificate, and every browser maker to register their browser, and every operating system maker to register their operating system, and every computer manufacturer to register their computer, then they can make it hard for a computer manufacturer to obtain parts for their computer, or a license to install the operating system, or vice versa, by leaning on the other registered entities.

> If you were to attempt an actual definition of “cancel”, you’d be forced to admit that nothing really bad comes of it (unless you can bring up more examples, but you seem to only cite the one).

What's happening here is I and others are demonstrating that the concept of "woke mobs cancelling people" is essentially a totally fabricated non-issue that is being used as reactionary fear-mongering to oppose progressivism. It's a way to maintain inequitable hierarchies and disparities, through various rhetorical strategies, such as claiming the very act of trying to dismantle said hierarchies is creating them ("cancelling" conservative viewpoints, accusations of thought-crime, etc).

What you're blatantly failing to do is demonstrate that our accusation that this is all made-up fear mongering is incorrect. You simply can't defend "cancelled," you can't point to more examples, to use your terminology, you've well "lost" this conversation. I don't like that framing though because I'm not here to "win arguments," I do that in my head in the shower every day lol, I'm here to hone my own values and viewpoints against people that genuinely disagree with me.

I actually did want you to provide a real definition of cancel and what you're concerned about because to be honest I'm not going to go out of my way to research the potential negative side effects on rich successful white men of not being allowed to be openly misogynistic or racist or supportive of unjust power structures, and so if there actually are unexpected outcomes, I want to know, and see how these things that are my values (lifting up minorities etc) can be improved. Normally that means talking with people who want to throw my values out with the bathwater, but that's fine and expected. What's frustrating is when they throw their own values out with the bathwater. At least with you, quite happily, that hasn't ended in an anti-semitic or racist rant, which is how it usually goes.

This is a fascinating use case. You’re describing something closer to “redact” than mute, it seems, and this seems like a great function to give people control over what they see. Something that doesn’t totally erase someone’s existence from your view, but it does obfuscate it. Like Discord’s “spoiler” tag that requires a click to see, but at the user level.

> In their defense, gdb is a pain in the ass to use if your editor doesn't come with integrated support. The debugger that comes with CLion/Visual Studio is perfectly adequate.

I meant, they do not know what a debugger is. As stated, they use "cout << "At line 26, after call to xx" as debugging tool. For gdb there are plenty of python extensions, and GUIs, even web front-end, that are not bad... but it may be difficult for some people, I understand that.

> Ada is useful for automotive. Lisp and Forth, not so much (especially since Lisp isn't usually used in hard real-time applications). This isn't the 1980s, MCUs aren't that memory constrained.

Well, first, they do not have the foggiest idea what Ada is. That is my problem. Once somebody suggested we should look into it, for L4 autonomous driving. He was laugh at, and it was said "it is a dead language from the 60, like Cobol or Fortran, nobody has used it in 50 years, there are no compilers for it!!!". I've seen forth being used in some 8-bit uC in the automotive industry still. Now is 99% gone, but was very much used. Lisp, can be used in hard real-time. BTW another thing always hanging around is the "hard real-time" for automotive. It is interesting, because other than for airbags, ignition and injection, you are talking about 100ms response times, which can be achieved very easily.

> Knowledge of obscure programming languages doesn't necessarily make you a better software engineer.

I'm not taking proficiency in the languages, I'm talking knowing it exist, having an idea of what is possible. I mean, I know no good C programmer that is not at least aware or the existence or Rust. And no, 90% of the programmers writing safety critical SW have no idea that a language called rust is available.

> I want my automotive embedded engineer to have a solid grasp of computer architecture, real-time safety protocols, and defensive programming.

Well, again, another example, with a chief software architect, in an ECU, so embedded: I ask "do we have some kind of stack monitoring?" Reply: "What?! we have no stack, stack is a data structure, ..." goes on with a long explanation of what stack, queue and tree are, and when are used... My personal opinion is, if you search for people that "know" only C++, and have no idea of asm, that is what you get. That is my experience at least.

> I don't see a problem with a Korean/Japanese car manufacturer having their documentation in a non-English language. As long as they do everything in-house and don't outsource to India like Boeing I have no problem with it.

I'm talking in-code comments, not documentation. But anyway, honesty, thinking you can do everything in-house today, and you will be able to maintain that in that way for the next 10 or 20 years when you have to maintain the code, sounds optimistic to me, at least.
But again, I'm talking code I had to read, and maintain... so... yes... I'm talking a case, where it was BAD to have not english comments.

You're confused. We shouldn't spending "100 trillion to maybe reduce temperature by a tiny tiny amount". We should spend that to not raise the temperate indefinitely.

Clearly we can't just raise the temperate 50 degrees. Everyone dies then. But the no-climate-action idea will in fact end up there. It will just take centuries. So we have to put a line in the sand at some point. We literally can't go on pumping CO2 into the atmosphere and de-terraform Earth.

We know roughly what is safe, and we're shooting way past it.

> If you perform a sexual show in front of children you’re a pedophile.

You're creating a dangerous precedent here. You should know that various cultures have various things that are considered sexual. I really hope you won't wander into a culture that doesn't sexualize women's breasts and start accusing shirtless women of pedophilia.

I also really hope you won't do the same of women showing their ankles in the USA! Please remember that whatever you find gross, icky, and sexual about a drag show, people genuinely felt the same about regarding women showing ankles, cleavage, etc. In some cultures, people feel the same about women showing their hair!

Given this massive fluctuation in what we all find sexual, perhaps you should err on the side of caution, and save the accusations of pedophilia for the actual pedophiles, you know, the ones that are actually interested in sexually harming children. A pretty easy cross-cultural definition that spares us from disarming a word that should only be used for a crime anybody could relatively safely describe as "the worst we can imagine."

> So far in this thread I’ve seen you be intolerant of the tolerant and call for violence against those who tolerate your intolerance.

Regarding your first paragraph, rarely are the gate agents telling the public the entire story. The truth is typically more complex and basically not of concern to the average passenger.

As for your conclusion, it's just not accurate. Systems _are_ used for scheduling and allocation of equipment and crew resources. You just have to realize that getting you, as an individual, to your destination on time on any given day isn't the number one priority of the company. There are a lot more concerns they are considering.
If the airline industry is really as dysfunctional as you think, with such shortcomings in areas as important as equipment and crew scheduling and allocation, you should drop whatever you're doing and start an airline. You'll soon be filthy rich and do the world a great service.
OMG, I'm Greek the word sounded awfully lot ancient Greek to me and I heard it a couple of times, even misattributed to Ancient Greek scholars etc.

It is a portmanteau of "πέτρα (petra)" meaning "rock" and "ιχώρ (ichor)" which is the mythological golden substance in the blood of the Ancient Greek Gods. So this sounds all pretty Greek to me with all the quirky mythological stuff that come with the Ancient Greek but here the thing.

I'm curious about where "they all failed" comes from. Presumably that means there are none currently in existence?

The first thing I did when I got my first smartphone this year was remove all of the pre-installed social media apps and turn off notifications for anything other than alarms, phone calls and texts.

I can access the web and email, but I usually don't.

It would drive me insane having random interruptions every few minutes from my phone. I don't see how anyone could live that way.

When I do use social media, I use my desktop computer, with a screen big enough for my failing vision, and I can usually scroll the days feed in less than 5 minutes each for email, twitter, fb, discord.

HN on the other hand, is a bit of an obsession.

I have always been taught that 37C is the upper limit, actually bordering on fever. So 36.5C or even a bit lower was always considered healthy and fine.
I just wanted to say that I love your style of writing.
Good luck as a man without pedigree or means to get your research noticed, much less published, translated, and promoted by leading scientists.
>The accuracy is implied in the number of digits usually.
>So 37 is +-1C

Yeah, but this doesn't work for human bodies when you round 36.5 either up to 37 or down to 36.

* 38C is surely fever, 37 is mild fever for most people;

* 36C is below-normal for most people, and 35C is surely hypothermia.

36.5 - 37C is the normal temperature range.

Hah! I have the same experience. When my children manage to sleep I'm too tired to do anything, so I program and think in computer problems as I fall asleep.

> Second, I think people will start to put a premium on accounts being "verified" as genuinely human.

IMO this is long overdue. And I think people should/will eventually even pay for this feature.

> Powerful nation states will be more than eager to assist them in this regard.

I agree - world governments could consider even subsidizing this in some way in order to foster fewer anonymous botnets sowing discord. The web of trust could be useful to help bolster this - if only in providing the process by which new social networks could eliminate anonymity.

I hear a lot about SSI [1] from a family member who works on this stuff. I'll be honest - I don't know whether it's promising or dystopian. Maybe a little bit of each. But I optimistically think it could be a way to help mitigate some of the problems created by anonymity.

The loss of anonymity won't be a panacea -- for example: people with legitimate accounts bound to their identity today accept bribes to create positive reviews of goods. And the loss of anonymity comes with significant drawbacks: criticizing government and powerful people becomes more difficult.

Having a digital reputation that you can taint could put people on their best behavior. But then again it's a bit dystopian [2, 3].
