You don't have a choice not to deliver in a smart contract. You cryptographically commit to the contract the maximum amount you may have to pay out, and you can't reneg or claw it back in any way. When the contract settles, the code determines the payout automatically without further input from the counter-parties. You can't withhold anything. There are no capital calls, margin calls, or anything like that. The smart contract is basically an escrow service.

There are two problems though:

1. For long-duration contracts, tying up that much capital is considered capital-inefficient by traditional financial system standards. It's tied up for a duration it could be making interest elsewhere, even if just the risk-free rate with T-bills or LIBOR. Conversely, it is very redundant and guarantees counterparty performance, there's no chance of a breach of contract.

2. Smart contracts that are settled by real-world data or events are subject to the oracle problem - you must trust both the data source, and its transmission onto the blockchain. If the oracle performing that function provides incorrect data, either accidentally or maliciously, it will cause the smart contract to settle incorrectly, and there's no recourse or claw back possible.

So smart contracts are not without their challenges, but they don't depend on real world law enforcement to guarantee settlement.

The article doesn’t claim that was the heart of the issue. It lists that as one of a multitude of issues.
But of course. There’s the small risk that they get finecombed but the risk/reward ratio is too good not to do it. The system seems to be designed for this.

SVB was technically insolvent last quarter and is now levered 185:1
It was a haul and I'm realizing now that I don't have it properly documented in my notes. But, that was a haul over the course of a couple years that had me experimenting with external USB network cards, virtual switches, and more.

It's gotten way easier now.

In your .wslconfig you'll want something like this:

[wsl2]
memory=48GB
localhostforwarding=true
networkingMode=bridged
vmSwitch=WSL_external

The key things are "networkingMode=bridged" and "vmSwitch=WSL_external".

Then, open up Hyper-V manager on Windows, go to "Virtual Switch Manager" and create a new virtual switch using your primary ethernet adapter (I could never get this to work with my USB ethernet adapter). Check the boxed for "External Network" and "Allow management operating system to share this network adapter" and finally call it "WSL_external". That should do it for you.

Incidentally, the port forwarding with WSL2 and Docker, has made this not entirely necessary, but I still like being able to SSH directly into my WSL2 host, not having to manage Windows' firewall rules, and being able to forward UDP for things like Mosh.
Loading times were bad enough from the internal drive, I shudder to think how bad they would be when streaming data in over usb.
> Sounds like eBay was saying they wouldn't

They will. I was defrauded for a few hundred bucks by credit card thieves acting as me on ebay. eBay has a legal department that will fight you to the end of the earth when you file a dispute against ebay. I would contest something and they would send 40+ file packets explaining why I was wrong. Even though it was lies it takes forever to painstakingly prove 40 pages of lies. Eventually the bank doesn't want to deal with it anymore, there's a committee that spends maybe 10 or 15 minutes on your case and it takes 400 pages of truth to disprove 40 pages of lies, and denies your dispute and you have to sue.

The best part is the pirates made the username 'piratearrgggghhhh@hotmail.com' or something to that effect as well as a tracking number for something shipped (to my city) an entire day before the purchase date and ebay included that in their discovery packet.... and ebay suspended the seller account for fraud .... I still lost lol.

What we found in a former org that worked well was to

- Front-end all emails with Proofpoint to modify all URL's to use their redirector which logged who clicked on what links and could also sanitize known malicious links or quarantine emails that were above a particular score. It would be wonderful if there were an open source alternative to this.

- Reward teams for reporting phishing emails as phishing, some of which were fake/test phishing and many were real. The security operations center would reach out to people that clicked dodgy links and sometimes even preemptively quarantine their laptop if it started to exhibit malicious behavior.
yeah good point. his account shouldn't be suspended as a buyer; it'd be the seller at fault. Really, it would be eBay's fault for letting a seller list a disallowed item.
ehhhhhhhhh. Maybe.
I was born in Roslagen so I may be biased, but that is likely where the name Rus comes from.

Roslagen comes from skeppslag, skepp as in ships, administrative regions which were required to each contribute one fully manned and equipped ship along with supplies.

A similar levy was taxed inland, called hundare (hundreds). There are three still remaining, the Chiltern Hundreds in Buckinghamshire.
In this case, it's mostly about headline writers coming up with new ways to be misleading.

Buried a few paragraphs in, it says "The energy wasn’t free; it had to be unlocked using knowledge purchased with energy in a far-off location." In other words, the opposite of the headline.

That doesn't mean it isn't nifty. It is, however, just what you said: "people doing calculations that hadn't been done before". People shove the equations around until they get a result that strikes their fancy, and then (ideally) goes off to perform an experiment that confirms it.

New discoveries are made every day, just by converting the equations into a form you haven't seen before. Most are boring. Some are interesting, and those make journal articles. Some are then exaggerated to make them seem more interesting than they really are, because what everybody wants is a once-in-a-century revolution to occur every week.
Most of them are typosquatting, which is really a problem that shouldn't be so hard to solve in a largely-automated way.

Here's my current list of routines: https://gist.github.com/surprisetalk/bc53ddd517c62ec7e98f2af...

On this list, you'll notice a lot of "never" routines. When I retire a routine, I change it to "never" so that it's easy to reenable it if I ever need it again. For example, I recently got laid off, so I'm allocating more time to personal projects than career stuff.

Training yourself to recognize things is difficult! Forcing yourself to look at something every hour or every day can force you to see the world differently within a matter of weeks.

Brains tend to tune things out, so nowify prints out randomized lists inline for many of these prompts. For instance, when I'm supposed to send memes to people, it prints 10 random memes and 3 random people to turn it into a little game.
> GP was saying that 27-42yo millenials are not likely to be able to afford to live near their boomer/Gen X parents

While you are right that perspective was taken from that of a millennial, the parents you speak of were the grandparents in the discussion. The kids are the children of the millennials. While it is true that some millennials do have adult children now, it is not common. Most millennials with children have children who are not yet adults and there is a general expectation that said children will live under the same roof as their parents.

And yes, that is most likely what the GP meant, despite the earlier discussion which already setup the context. Which is why we’re joking about it.

With an AWS config style 'credential_process' option that'd be ideal. My script pulls the value from Terraform, which of course I could just dumo into one of those files, but it does occasionally change; it's very convenient that it just keeps on working (especially as it's also used in CI, so nothing to change and commit for it to work with new values).

Thanks though, I didn't know about the latter, and I think I've only heard of pgpass from error messages and such, not actually looked into it before.
I agree with the point of diffuse benefits being under-appreciated.

I do think that some parts of the YIMBY side at its worst sometimes downplays the rights of the present land owners though, and I think your “enriches homeowners” comment plays into that. We need to respect and honor both sets of stakeholders. I think most homeowners are not money-grubbers as you suggest, they chose a particular neighborhood vibe because that is where they want to live, and they don’t want to lose that. That is valid! Moving house is incredibly disruptive, particularly considering school districts. (To be clear though, I do agree that YIMBY is directionally appropriate for most neighborhoods).

One angle I don’t see discussed often is “rate of change”. I think some people would like to preserve their neighborhoods character indefinitely, and that is unrealistic clinging. But I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect that if you buy a house in a quiet suburban neighborhood, that it’ll have that character for, say, a decade or maybe two while your kids grow up or whatever.

I think a lot of infill can happen without changing the character too much, and this middle ground is probably hurt by polarization.
Research also shows that any layoffs negatively effect the performance of the company over the long term.

They bill it as “dropping the low performers” but in my experience, that’s rarely what actually happens.

It's a tongue-in-cheek essay, I'm not sure the author intends to suggest an alternative.

The way I think a out the barter rules is that they are there to keep people from using barter terms to describe non-barter economic activity. In other words, if someone lives their entire life avoiding cash or instruments of cash, but trades units of work for goods to deliberately avoid income taxes, the rules allow the IRS to say nope, we see through you, you're putting in 32+ hours and getting what other people pay roughly $50k/year for, so what you really have is a full-time $50k job, and you owe taxes based on that.

A world without such rules might be a world in which many, many more people "barter" time for goods and services in just that way.
I was diagnosed with ADD as a kid, not ADHD (that was my brother). I assume I have it with how much I jump around mentally, but who cares?

This is who I am. It's not any kind of problem unless you're being forced into some kind of work where it IS a problem, but then that kind of work isn't for you.

To keep myself feeling good and busy, I work on a TON of creative stuff, sci-fi stories, film scripts etc, and can just put in a note or whatever as I think of it, then back to doing work. And I do tech work where I can have a lot of different tasks and different ways to approach them, which allows for 'jumping around' while still staying ultimately on task.

Software can help a lot as well. For example I started using TeXStudio to organize my ideas because of their navigation pane (most of my tex files just have sections and subsections and no other LaTeX).

All of that is to say instead of trying to force yourself to fit into some kind of mold, create a new mold that fits you perfectly. A mold should come from you, you shouldn't be trying to force into one.

One thing I notice in approaching this issue as an attorney vs the way I see others discuss it is that it's not sufficient to just characterize things a certain way on a facial level. It's not convincing to a court or the copyright office to just call it "AI tooling", an argument needs to made w/r/t the facts of the situation, how these models' outputs differ from existing machine-driven processes (like various photoshop tools). It's in this nuance that the answer lies, and it's not in surface-level equivocation or appeals to "creativity". Like, the issue for the copyright office isn't that artists are whining that it's not "art", it's that copyright law only protects human expressions.
A useful first step, since eBay is in California, is to exercise your California "right to know" right to obtain copies of all information eBay has on you.[1]

Things are not black and white.

There are certain things that can be more easily audited, verified or enforced on-chain. For example, payments could be automated (potentially based on verifiable data), or secured lending could happen programmatically.

At the end of the day, yes, you still want to have legal enforcement, i.e., if someone defrauds you on chain, that's still a crime and should be enforced, or if someone fails to deliver, you should still have a contract claim against them.
> Both Google and Amazon are barreling down the path of democratizing scale and infrastructure with their cloud offerings. It's never been easier to reach millions of users in a short amount of time with your product.

The second statement does not follow from the first.

What is true (partly because of the first statement) is that building is now easier than ever. Precisely because of that, however, rising above all the noise and reaching millions of users is now arguably harder than it was previously.

My M1 MBP hasn't been able to last over 4 hours since I got it... but for work I have to use Slack and Teams.

If I am on a video call with Teams I am lucky if I get 1.5 hours out of a 100% filled battery, as the Teams "helper" sits at 190% CPU usage during the entire call.

Electron applications are wasting so much CPU time and power.

My personal M1 MBP that I got when it was first released still lasts over 10 hours. I code in VimR with Rust analyzer and compile Rust projects for hours on end. No issues.

Just, no Electron applications and stuff sips battery.

If you returned it with a tracking number that showed it as delivered, it shouldn't have mattered if the seller denied receiving it. eBay basically always sides with the buyer in that case, that's their policy. And if they didn't, you should have been able to escalate by phone to get it fixed. (I've had to do that three times over many years, and ultimately got it fixed every time I showed the tracking number proof of delivery -- I'd had to phone because the scam seller had put a fake different tracking number.)

On the other hand, if you didn't use a service with a tracking number, or didn't put the tracking number into your return, then that was your mistake. Live and learn. :(

I spend most of my day in Xcode and the only time I see this is when there's a pane with a file open that has contents that makes SourceKit choke.

SwiftUI can also do it with more complex views, which is one of the reasons I've been sticking to UIKit.
