Nostr does not use a blockchain, nor NFTs, nor tokens, etc.

The fact that someone is offering to pay a bounty in BTC for the creation of a Github alternative using the Nostr protocol does not make Nostr, nor this Github alternative, a crypto token.
The DEA has to justify its existence somehow...
What makes things worse now?
Unlike most other birds, owls have no crop. They do regurgitate undigestible remains (hair, bones, keratinous pieces) of the prey they consume, because they have a gagging fetish.
It's relative. I believe that you shouldn't tell someone depressed that they haven't reached the bottom yet. Try to show them one direction: up.
It definitely does calculate it otherwise it would diverge significantly at lower digits from the Gauss Legendre and Chudnovsky algorithm that I compared it to. It just defers calculation to MPFR, the C library Julia binds to for BigFloat calculations.
I used to dream a lot as a kid. Somewhere along the way that basically stopped happening. It’s come back somewhat in mid life but not with the intensity and sticking power that dreams in youth had.
What makes this game so good ?

The graphics are pixel perfect, no silly 3D and leaves room for imagination. The fantasy universe is unique, mixing all mythomogies into one coherent world. The music is first class epic.

Similar game for me is Master Of Orion 2 (MoO II)
My understanding is that message features are embedded in the messages themselves. So, it’s more a question of client support rather than relay/server support.
The entire world would have detected the meteor that large and been warned
I do this on occasion, too. Don't be ashamed!
I mean, sure, I personally wouldn't care for this feature, but that's because I'm a bloke and don't derive much joy from shopping. My girlfriend though absolutely loves window shopping. I think this sort of feature would be far more appealing to her than me.

For better or worse we can't know how popular this sort of thing would be, because their project failed for tech reasons before even getting to the point of doing market research or usability testing. That's the higher level issue here, I think. If they'd gone the desktop route they could have at least tried it and seen what people thought, then later looked for ways to shrink it down to fit inside the browser. By starting with that requirement as axiomatic they never even got as far as running a usability testing day.
A thruppny bit (three-penny piece) was my favourite coin. It was a brassy colour, different from every other coin - not coppery, and not silvery. It was quite heavy - it felt like wealth. It had twelve sides - the only sterling coin that had sides, until the introduction of the 50p bit, with decimalisation.

The other thing I liked about it was that three is such a crazy denomination for a currency token, like a three-dollar bill; three old pennies were heavier and bigger, but the old pennies were ridiculously large and heavy.

I also liked florins and half-crowns. A florin was a two-shilling piece, and a half-crown was two-and-a-half shillings. These were coins that actually contained silver.

A crown was five shillings, but not generally used as currency, it was issued as a memorial, like a medal. At one time I owned a Churchill Crown, issued to commemorate Churchill's death. They were big, heavy coins. That's why a half-crown was two-and-a-half shillings.
'They can find their way home, or drive your car etc, without you having to think about driving or where to go, you just zone out and before you realize it you are home.'

Every weekend I do a 12 mile walk, mostly rural roadside with little traffic.

At one crossing point, a week ago, a couple in a vehicle stopped me and asked if I realized that I had just wandered across the road without looking and they had almost run me other.

I explained that I was totally oblivious, had not heard their vehicle approaching and thanked them for them their concern.

Today, halfway across the road, I just realized that I was doing the exact same thing at more or less the exact same point.

I wonder now if my subconscious is trying to kill me?
isn’t the change over time amps? or volts for that matter.
Bob is also now another word for pounds. That might be a northern thing though.
I don't particularly agree with that article, but I find it more interesting than many others that landed up on the top page. The hacker community is defined, amongst others, by its very diverse field of interests.
Yes, Julia has wrappers for many other languages, so there are options if you really need some specific chunk of C/C++, Fortran, Python, Octave or R etc.

Yet a polyglot project is bad design, and tends to become an abomination in time. This is one reason many Go programmers rewrote libraries rather than saturate their code with cgo/C and SWIG/C++ wrappers. Similarly, people are writing scalable versions of libraries in Julia to improve transparent parallel performance for problems too big for a single machine to feasibly handle.

Things are still undergoing change, but of course the commercial nvidia binary blobs will haunt everyone for awhile. =)
TIL, that's an intriguing difference. Like I say, CPIH adjusts for this somewhat. It is a problem here because our 2% inflation target doesn't include housing. It also doesn't include the stock market etc, so we push inflation into these areas.

Maybe I'm being too British in saying this, but it is a rare occasion when I see the US being more sensible than the UK. This is definitely one of those moments.
@ianai: The POSTER is talking about being under-prepared for integrating their emotions into their lives, and NOT in the "life goal" sense.

"[I am a] broken pile of glass" != "[I need to hear about the] job market" kind of situation.

As I read their posting, it's more of a "help me develop my emotional intelligence."
In fact, probably soldiers are not that useful, bombing with drones or drones with firearms seem more efficient
A breakup two weeks ago is massive. So soon after I wouldn’t expect you to feel better than this, it’s good you don’t feel worse! Many people would.

And when you’re ready I’d suggest thinking again on what your therapist is saying because they have a point. After a breakup you have an opportunity to do things 100% for you with no one else to please. As basic as choosing dinner and Netflix/streaming/torrent title or as elaborate as major world travel (visit some of those international friends - and before you mention cost remember traveling young and alone is the cheapest, you have flexibility in dates and accommodation you won’t have later with kids, spouse, tired bones that need soft mattress).

I know it’s hard to see the opportunities in your situation but they exist. Small indulgences and bigger ways (eventually when you’re ready) of leveraging the advantages of being alone are the route to eventually becoming happier and stronger and healthier than you were even before the breakup. And from that strength comes better answers about your future.
> I'm also in the last year of my PhD in a sub-field I have never envisioned myself in

I can only help in a tiny little way, but I hope it helps.

My go to intro question for profs when I was in school, was asking the topic of their PHD thesis. They spent years working on it, and I always thought it odd no one else ever asked them.

It seems like almost no one I've ever met ended up working in their PHD field. This includes liberal arts, not just STEM.

So if you don't envision yourself being in your subfield, well, that's good because it seems almost no one stays in the same subfield. Maybe you'll be the outlier, but what are the odds?
Man, I remember the time when we had to pass a constitutional amendment to make a substance illegal. Now a government agency can just declare substances illegal without needing to justify it to anybody.
It would have been nice if a comparison to plain old JPEG was included so we had an idea of how much space JXL saves for the same quality.
This is pretty funny. Maybe actually read my original reply. It's in there.
Try studying a subject in real depth for six month, that caused me resume dreaming
Relays today are rather "dumb". Clients are "smart". So, for your examples, each client would have to implement a marketplace or photo gallery. Relays can store that data without having to really do anything.

I don't really agree, because I see people who use both the word "Retard" and "Autist" as a slur. It's only the left wing who will exclusively use the word "Autist" as a slur because it flies under the radar and can be wrapped up in woke dressing, but the words aren't totally interchangable.

The word "Autist" has become popular simply because more people are called "Autists". This justifies parents getting more government assistance's, schools being able to rationalise away their standardised test scores slipping as being the students fault, doctors getting fat insurance payouts, TikTok celebrities getting attention, everybody gets their piece. It's a label of scapegoating problems people have with an individual justified by the subjective observation of their behaviour and the inference their brains must be "disordered", "disturbed", "disregulated", and "dysfunctional" without any requirement to look deeper into societal or physiological problems. No wonder prevalence has increased more than a hundredfold since it first started being diagnosed, it's so convenient to so many people, and the diagnostic criteria is relativistic and thus pliable.

The rise of autism's popularity was to justify (POSITIVELY!) discriminatory treatment in schools, social groups, and work which were always wrapped up in this faux-sympathetic concern over defective brains which totally justifies differential treatment. People who just think that "Autism" is a funny way to make fun of somebody without any further motivation aren't even the problem, they merely reveal the reality of what over-socialised people have always thought when they call people "Autistic", and that look in the mirror revolts people.

Way I see it, this thing called autism being treated as a "mental disorder" is no different than transgenderism being called a "mental disorder". A difference in behaviour being belittled as a mental defect without non-inferential evidence or thought about if this framing actually helps people. That is how I see it more than I see it as a PC replacement for the word "Retard".
Conversely, I'm on a Gen 8 X1, and on Silverblue with tlp replacing power-profiles-daemon, I routinely get 8-9 hours. Anecdata and whatnot, but I'm pretty happy with modern linux + modern hardware. That's not to say I wouldn't love to get my hands on an M1 macbook to see the difference though...
Yes, and one of the responses was to ask "But why?".

I'm answering why we should (within reason) splurge on these kinds of fun, seemingly pointless side tracks.
This is a damn cover-up. Octal’s still around - working a gig for the POSIX crew as an enforcer, controlling access to files down in the directory system. Sure, he wears a mask that disguises his bits as r, w and x, but it’s definitely him.

Just to clarify, A Scanner Darkly was not one of his earlier works, it was one of his last. It was written in 1973 (double checked, publication date was 1977, though) which was 21 years after he was first published and 9 years before his death. He only wrote 5 more novels after it.
“This too, shall pass”

I went through a similar experience early in my college career. I wish I could tell you about one simple trick that changed everything and saved me years of pain and struggle.

The truth is that I dug in, finished my work, and eventually over time … everything worked out.

It taught me that in life sometimes you will find yourself in a season of immense struggle. Ride the waves, do what you can to improve your situation, but above all have faith that this too, will pass.
"Some of Twitter’s debt carries an annual interest rate of almost 15%."

Yeah you are both correct, had completely forgotten those aspects of them.

+1, I've been to 5 or 6 therapists and 80% of the progress came from the first or second session. The remaining sessions were almost always repetitive and useless to me.
Someone working towards a phd in the final year of work shouldn’t be personally taking upon the baser weight and long term sustainability of society. That’s too much for any one person - Jimmy Carter clearly “settled for less” and still managed a lot more than the rest of us could hope in our lifetimes.

OP is perfectly fine to just focus on the degree and know the world will continue on while OP works.

Your framing this as something more than it is is abhorrent.
Being a victim is a mindset, sure you can come from a shitty place but that doesn't determine where you go next.

Thinking you are a victim is also highly addictive because it shifts responsibilities from you to something that is not-you (parents, boss, partner, society, your gender, racists, ...)

While not all circumstances are your choice, at a fundamental level remaining a victim is a choice.

There's always somebody worse off than you.
The dead-on imitation of hard-boiled detective prose gets me every time. "I always leave when the talk gets philosophical," indeed!
Don’t want to be rude or dismissive. You’re obviously going through some tough times. But you’re pretty far from rock bottom. I’ve been a lot lower and there was no bottom there either.

I hope all goes well: You finish your PhD and put this breakup behind you. Therapy helps and you feel better about yourself.

But if it does take a turn for the worse here is my short advice: First of all, get good sleep. Second, limit or cut ties with people who want to see you fall, or talk to / about you as if you already have, regardless of who they are (even parents). Also remember that healing / rebuilding yourself takes time, but as soon as the derivative is positive time is on your side.
You can modify REST endpoints to support selects and filters.
Cockney rhyming slang. The custom is that you take a two-word phrase whose second word rhymes with the target word, and then you just use the first word.

So "Plates of meat" == "feet", but you just say "me plates are cold". Scousers don't do that.

[Edit] There was a cafe off Haymarket in London, called "My Old China". That was another kind of plate; a "china" is a "china plate", which rhymes with "mate". So it's "my old mate".

Don't let the truth stand in the way of a good headline.
And yet the developed world is in turmoil, perhaps because we have abandoned the social contract involving marriage and the nuclear family for the good of our society.

I don't know the answer to this massively complex problem, but I don't think it's easy to reduce things to "marriage = dumb", especially with the world so divided and angry.
Very true. I can see that Edge of Tomorrow, Limitless, and Source Code are all PG-13, so he might want to start with those.

Edit: At the same time I feel like these suggestions (including the R-rated ones) are all wonderfully simple, understandable, yet though-provoking and constantly entertaining. Perfect for anyone that finds 2001 to be a slow and tedious movie. I would really want to trust that it's safe for anyone to watch these as long as they have an adult next to them, and someone they can talk about the movie with after.
That's basically how California marijuana licenses were handed out before it was legalized.
> Wouldn't super scientists, engineers, businessmen, salesmen or politicians be more useful to a state than a super soldier?

Soldiers are by social role, servants of government. Super scientists, engineers, salesman, and politicians all present different threats and competition to government. Useful to a civilization yes, but government isn't a civilization, it's people who are clinging onto a bucking-bronco for power and safety.

I don't think this is not how evolution works. Octopuses are most likely as dumb (or, by maritime standards, clever) as they were millions of years ago.
No, many mains connected clocks still use the power frequency for timing. As recently as four years ago we had the same problem: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/european-...
"hidden consciousness" and similar implies that these computations are conscious, that is an assumption we don't have to make here. All that is required is that the process has some reason to invoke the consciousness to get back some data about some scenario. The fact that the process is smart doesn't mean that it has to be conscious, that is just something you made up here, it is a much weaker statement than what I made.
No, we use the algorithm described in the paper.
At least this paper cites Hinton et al. (1995). The wake-sleep algorithm for unsupervised neural networks which conjectures just the same roles for dreaming.
But as far as I can see there is absolutely nothing new provided here about experiments on brain or psyche.

You'd think 28 years is a bit long a delay to try to claim a pilfered engineering theory as your own before the medical community?
Friston was at least more timely.
most components are LGPL not GPL. also after I think it was Qt 5.6, they switched to LGPLv3 instead of v2, so the anti-tivoization clause applies.
Well, what is it supposed to do? How are you supposed to tell if it makes a difference?
I am pretty scared to see what happens to cars from the last 10 years as they age. The amount of computers im them is unbelievably high. Most of the chips will have been end of lifed, and whats to keep the car manufacturer making parts? Historically there was a lot of room for third parties tonmake repplacement parts, but it feels unapproachable.

Hopefully these thousands of microcontrollers all kust keep running for many decades & this is a non-issue.
The title is stated as fact, not a theory. You have to get all the way to the last sentence in the abstract before they say it's a hypothesis.

Misleading title at best. I would say disingenuous.

So, it sounds like they cloaked the search in terms of a "medical procedure". That surprises me, but I guess by now it shouldn't. They do this kind of thing, when they know they can get away with it.
Docker escapes exist and if this was released by spooks then including sandbox escapes is par. Unlikely for sure but your confidence is naïve.

My point is that if you have nuclear plants that can dispatch power on demand based on demand, there is far less need grid scale store.

And if you build on electric trains and trams, rather then EV you can likely reduce the amount of lithium a society needs by 80%.
Re-reading OPs post I now see I misread it. Parsed it as Matrix having been shown due to the adult themes.
Thanks for proving my point: There's no value in pursuing people who aren't your customers, who aren't providing you value.

If we as end-users want URLs to not rot away, we need to put value on working URLs that convinces webmasters to put in the effort to maintain working URLs.

"Marriage is an unnecessary burden and construct in modern times."

Too early to say. It is possible (though by no means certain) that by 2200, the Earth will be inhabited by a mix of the Amish, the Haredim and various Salafist creeds which, while distinctly non-modern, never stopped reproducing themselves, while all the modernized groups did.

Edit: interesting that this comment attracted two downvotes but no rebuttal. I would say that the process is at the very least visible in Israel, at its conception in 1948 a very secular state whose demographics has since then changed a lot due to high TFR of the Haredim. And the Israeli politics seems to be following its demography.
This seems to be par for the course for the "new" Ohio. Because there are/were some MAGA people in high office, I would not be surprise if the penalties for protesters are sever.

Also being the new Ohio, maybe the State Gov has no issues ignoring EPA regs :(
telegram doesn't come by default on my phone. getting a teenager to download telegram or duo or <insert other platform here> is hard. The power of facetime is any kid with an iphone has the ability to immediately video call any other kid with an iphone.

I'm not saying its a good thing. I despise that its practically impossible to have a social life without an iphone in a lot of urban american schools. Just know that by not budging and not getting your kid an iphone, you are causing them frustration and potentialy making them lose out on a significant part of their childhood.
The name doesn't matter, but it is a fact that there are processes that we don't control that are very intelligent in our brain.

Let me point that "we don't control" and "in your brain" is a contradiction somehow. If it's in your brain, it's you. I'd simply say "you are your brain" and call it a day. A programmer metaphor: you start a thread that acts more or less on its own and never really dumps result to the main thread or registers its course in the memory, but it doesn't mean that it's "another you" in the brain.

Sometimes you wake up at night and then never remember that moment, it doesn't settle in the memory, unless something happens that keeps you awaken, the you do remember the moment. My point is that what surfaces and gets recalled it's not you and then there's "another intelligent system" with different rules, just a subsystem that most of the time is unattended.

I guess I need to experiment with this. I'm fairly conservative when it comes to experimenting with files since I find it always ends up triggering .swp file recoveries, which is not just annoying[1], but has also resulted in me accidently losing work before.

Wow. Thank you for posting this. I think it's the best thing I've ever seen on THN. Seriously, thanks again. What a masterpiece.
As someone else said, the trick is that you can use a slower source to line up the rotation of a faster source to high accuracy. The idea is similar to that of the Vernier scale.
