It's really just a question of definition and Perspective. From the perspective of the JIT or Assembly, there's no such thing as FP. So you got to make abstractions.

And a very helpful abstractions is to say that the context that you are saying is impure is just another parameter and another part of the return value. Because that's how React is treating context, and that's why you can treat React components as functionally pure if you respect the rules of hooks.

FP doesn't demand the parameters stay the same. It also allows for outputs of a function to get put back in as a parameter in a subsequent invocation, which is what happens to the context. If you insist on seeing it another way, I can't stop you, it's just more complicated and I don't see how that's helping.

i didn't say open source is not open, i said that other things that are not open-source can also be called open. OpenAI is not called OpensourceAI because that's not the extent of what they meant.

I didn't say open standards are better than open source, I said open standards are also open.

Ask HN: Is there any common thread tying FTX, SVB and Big Tech Layoffs?
Is there anything common between the cryptocurrency exchange FTX's downfall, the bank Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), and recent technology industry layoffs? Something that is structurally and systematically broken? Are these leading indicators for something bigger?

"prod realtime apps shouldn't run on gcp."

YES! Everyone should read this. Google Cloud will shutdown your servers for the slightest stupid reason. NEVER EVER run any production apps with Google Cloud.

"gaslighting that the customer is wrong, gcp had no issues"

YES this is my experience except in my case they didn't gaslight me and instead avoid giving a resolution.
-

I run a business that hundreds of paying customers (ecom stores) relies on and I'm a 4 yrs customer with Google Cloud.

They shutdown all my servers last Friday for the slightest stupid reason and don't give a fuck to rectify things fast. 3 days now and they still haven't gave me a resolution.

On paper, my servers were shutdown for at least more than 72 hrs and it's still ongoing.

Not mentioned in the video is that Philips Ventures is effectively buying up MedTech companies with proven tech, and hovering up the IP into their portfolio as an 'innovation' strategy.

Effectively it's a zero risk venture for big corp companies that depend on innovation, they don't have to sink money in research projects in their own R&D labs. Just find someone with something interesting which has already been de-risked, with proven feasibility, buy them out and develop for manufacturing.

For clarity all big MedTech companies are doing this not just Philips.

I believe that would be the FDIC, which is funded by banks (its deposit insurance), right?
If you are new to vim/nvim in general give https://www.lunarvim.org/ a try. Most things should just work / are easy to set up.

That's because the goal of the whining is the whining - people feel emotionally slighted because someone didn't keep maintaining a free product just for them. This explains why paid alternatives didn't take off - people wanted FREE and they wanted GOOGLE to GIVE them FREE. It's modern developer entitlement at its best - it comes from the same place as all of the abusive attacks on opensource developers when they don't cater to the audience.
Are there any "conservatives" who aren't just corporatists? Not that the other side is much better...
The Fed will accept treasuries as collateral for face value loans to banks for 1 year as part of the announcement. The losers here will be bank shareholders (of underwater banks) because they will need to dilute themselves to make up the difference when the loan gets called unless they can find other ways to make money in the meantime.
i'm pretty sure you're wrong about that, but not invested enough to check.

but if you're right, it seems a little silly, why impose that "diversification" on bank customers? if 100 millionaires live in a city, why should they all have accounts at all the different banks, as if that's somehow safer for the FDIC than have the same funds spread around in the same quantities across the same banks, just under different names.
It's the Fed. It literally prints money and loans it out. And it's doing this to replace money erased during a bank run, so no inflation implications.
On reading up about Pye, I found an interesting story about the valve EF50:

I'd argue that the renter and would-be buyers base has a much louder voice in mainstream media in San Francisco.
Interesting. So a bailout is when the rules are changed so that some people get to keep money that they otherwise would have lost (or would not have gotten). I'm onboard with that.

But then the PPP and pandemic payments were bailouts, too - a bailout isn't necessarily a "bad" thing, right?

Like, we judge the bailout by who benefits, right?

We should just bail out families, small businesses with payroll needs, etc., and VC firms should take a haircut? Or rich people shouldn't be bailed out - cap FDIC guaranteed deposits at 1m?

Or should Signature have gotten the full deposit bailout (not tained with VC funny-money), while SVB should not?

Serious question: what is the rule / policy / threshold that solves the problem better than "everyone affected by the problem gets the same full deposit insurance"? It's a decision full of tradeoffs, being made in a limited time and information situation. I don't think the Fed+FDIC+Yellen are making calls based on trying to "save" nor "punish" certain groups - they can't possibly have the time or resources to figure out an optimal solution.
This was precisely my experience as well. It was magnified by the burden of having to rewrite various zsh scripts and parts of my config that I've cultivated over a decade. I thought Nushell was _neat_, but not neat or useful enough spend time migrating my stuff.
I think you are referring to the $250k limit. It's not very practical for companies to diversify according to that limit. Apple has 50 billion in reserves, do you think they can find 200 thousand banks to spread that around?
> Where did the Treasury find this $25 billion?

They used this obscure keyboard shortcut: Ctrl + P
Is that true? I think of C# and Java as compiled languages and they run on the CLR/JVM which are both virtual machines.
Wasn't SVB UK fine and unaffected by events in US?

In the sea of information about this, other than 'all is good', I didn't know UK branch was being taken over and sold as well.
European countries used to have fairly high taxes on power and / or displacement, which was why 60s and 70s european cars tended to have such small engines compared to American ones.

It also affected engine designs as e.g. the english RAC horsepower was based on bore, hence the high frequency of undersquare 4s and 6s in english cars even upscale (e.g. Jaguar’s XK I6) as opposed to the oversquare V8s of american cars.
You are better off because the government is helping, and so are all of the people in the country who need to work for a living and need companies to work for. You can't let the banking system collapse and expect it will only hurt the people you don't like.

> If these statements are true, can someone explain how it's possible that despositors are fully protected, far beyond what FDIC insures, without the taxpayer bearing any of the burden?

"The FDIC is not supported by public funds; member banks' insurance dues are its primary source of funding. When dues and the proceeds of bank liquidations are insufficient, it can borrow from the federal government, or issue debt through the Federal Financing Bank on terms that the bank decides."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Deposit_Insurance_Corp...

On top of that, SVB has the money to pay back almost all of the depositors. They just don't have it liquid right now because it's in bonds that won't mature for a while and would need to be sold for a loss. So the obvious and sensible thing to do is have the government lend money to cover the time until the bonds mature, in addition to using the FDIC's money which did not come from public funds.

> And please inform him the recourse he has should he disagree with sharing your loss.

You can vote for people who are dumb enough to let the entire banking system collapse because they want to hurt rich people. But of course that would probably put "peasants" out of work while the rich get slightly less rich.
And you could use XMPP.
Rational beings typically act according to the incentives they are provided, so if coders don't want to work on Reader for this reason, and management don't want to keep it around, it does point to the incentive structure being part of the problem. But it therefore follows that many of Google's bad decisions could be partly traced back to how the company is organised - probably the interlinked combination of the incentive structure, and success metrics.

What's interesting is that even the most biased insider must see that Google really sucks in some domains - and recognising (and/or generating) user value seems to be one of them. Several times, they've either spent big on products which just missed the mark from day one (Plus/Currents, Stadia, multiple text/chat apps), or killed products which already had major engagement (Reader, Inbox, Orkut).

What's interesting is that if they made user engagement the only major metric that mattered and incentivised accordingly, it would likely drive interesting behaviour - a real focus on user needs, iteration to optimise engagement in the longer term, improvements in customer service, etc.
They don't need to do extra due diligence. Just buy insurance for the excess amount above the FDIC limit. After all, they do benefit from the upside like cheaper mortgages for execs.
This is how we do it too. Never heard of the problem of not knowing whether it was dirt or not.
So what will happen with same appeasement in Ukraine? After few years of "peace" war will continue again. So you lost with appeasement and you got war again.

Based on context, I assume "investors" should in fact read "depositors" in the article?

It doesn't seem like the author is disputing the traditional order of repayment (depositors, bondholders, stockholders)
Again, no. Functional components are not defined by just their "javascript function" but rather by the contract with the rest of the rendering system.

And that's why the context manipulated by hooks looks like a sideeffect, and it often does describe sideeffects, but it doesn't. That context is both an input and an output, only the rendering logic in React decides what to do with that output. Without the rendering logic deciding to execute those sideeffect, the context isn't actually changed at all. Which is why you usually don't need to care about when or how often the component is executed.
Often there is a data leak prevention software installed that won’t let you upload local files to external sites and flag your manager if you do. You can’t block all the sites, so this is a better way.

Counterpoint: it’s miles worse than FIDO/WebAuthn, which most hard keys and modern OSes support. Asking users to install a browser plugin is a disaster waiting to happen for most users. Phishing of cryptocurrency hardware wallets happens all the time, but it is impossible to phish a Passkey. The reason a browser plugin is required is because these devices are made to transact on a blockchain, rather than open APIs intended for domain authentication.

Cryptocurrency wallets are horrible for normal security features that do not involve blockchains.
Don't use any of them.

Ok I think I get it now. The UK regulator seized the bank and the accounts and sold both to HSBC. The US regulator just seized the accounts, which have now been backstopped fully, and the SVB bank itself is just operating for a while longer as they find a buyer for the carcass?
Ah, I believe I see what's happening there.

I recently watched a documentary from the late 70s and was shocked at how thin members of the public in the background footage were compared to people in the same community today.
A insurance tax should be setup for banks that are to big to fail. If it‘s clear that it needs a public bailout, the state acts as an insurer and needs to pe paid accordingly.

I'm not a routine VS Code user but agree it's good. Those guys know what they're doing. A slightly different case from a standalone terminal really.
Short-term bonds have low risk. Long-term bonds are volatile and can go up or down opposite interest rates. SVB made a huge bet on interest rates not going up, and lost. In an alternate world where interest rates went back to zero, they could have made a sweet profit. Banks should have limits on how much they can gamble like this.
A ten year wait till maturity is not a short term funding shortfal... lol

Whatever the form of a demonstration, if potential fraud is a concern then you want somebody with expertise in fraud in that domain. So for a demonstration that is statistical, a hotshot statistician is needed. For a physical demonstration you want a hotshot manipulator of the physical world, such as a practical magician. Somebody who already knows a long list of techniques and trade secrets for appearing to defy known.
A private party's debts are getting paid with public funds. That is a bailout.
Every depositor is getting $250k back immediately, surely that's enough to make payroll a few times over, factoring in other revenue they must have if their payroll is that large.

For the rest of it, they might take a 20% haircut at most. Even if they had no revenue, and that was say 10 months runway, then it's down to 8 months. It's not like people aren't going to get paid, there's plenty of notice there.
No SVB has been shut down too. SVB UK is an independent company as of fairly recently. Banks have different regulatory environments than normal companies and no control if things go wrong.
Will they acquire stanchart next? IIUC their market cap is half of their assets-liabilities (please correct me if wrong). It’s like buying a (red-tape encrusted) dollar bill for 50c. (Not a banker, take with grain of salt, just parroting the finance press here)

Well, I boycotted it but I suspect that made little difference.

Problem is that if an institution (like the BBC) boycotted the Qatar World Cup, they'd almost certainly be in breach of contracts and banned from future world cups (and depending how vindictive FIFA wanted to be, UEFA and Premier League coverage too.)

Way to go.
"seem to lose drive and direction", thats what happen to the company I work (until they close our factory by the end of 2023). For several years, there had been many ideas what to do and to change. But really just ideas, nobody did really decide and said "ok, let's do it". For years I used to say we have no idea where we like to go with our company. Now I know, our factory get closed be the end of 2023.
if the FED prints monney, it creates inflation. If it does not, it does not save SVB depositors.
>SpaceX is able to put them up faster than Russia could shoot them down

This doesnt seem correct to me. Building, launching, and positioning replacement satellites to fill gaps in service seems like it would take much more effort and cost than a takedown.

Can you further expand on why you think your claim is accurate?
Also, holding all of your fiat in a single bank or financial instrument is usually not a great idea. Diversification is important to any relatively stable financial position.

E.g: Fiat over $500k in a single institution is likely not earning as much as it could and runs the risk of loss of access to funds for X amount of time if the bank fails, until reimbursement happens. But $100k each in 2 different banks leaves you with $300k to invest however you see fit and still have enough liquidity to move quickly on opportunities.

I use vim daily and have been for years. I find those initiatives really interesting and especially I see things like org mode for vim which, although it is only a subset of org mode for emacs, could help me with some usecases.

However I also find those things overwhelming. Just looking at the readme I feel like I'll need a few nights of learning and weeks of practice to figure out a workflow, plus it won't be available soon on my few computers and ever on my many servers. What I like in vim is also it's ubiquity and simplicity. I know my vim config by heart (it's just 6 lines) and just type it in when I login and I don't like the installed config.

How would you or anyone recommend approaching a transition to those kind of framework or frontends or whatever it's called ?
Yes.

Sudden zero interest rates, then sudden high interest rates.
Imagine being this much of a snowflake.
You mean besides the fact that FDIC just took them over?
>Who will loan the government tens or hundreds of billions of dollars besides the banks? The [Fed/Treasury/FDIC] has no incentive to prevent banks from loaning customer deposits, because the Treasury needs banks to purchase government bonds

War bonds were bought by people directly. I see no reason why we can't have the same today. God knows the US needs a WWII sized investment in repairing infrastructure.

You seem to be conflating the bankers with the bank owners here. The former have done well, the latter have lost everything (total SVB dividends are less than the value of the bank).
I would be completely unsurprised if there were more than a few chaste clerics on these dating apps, and they were fully (secretly) authorized to use the clandestine social networks to provide compassionate ministry to LGBTQ and HIV-positive individuals, and "outing" them completely destroys their ability to serve where they are most needed.
Like it or not, the West generally is in a state of decline.

"In 2000, Europe had 41 of the biggest 100 companies. Now it only has 15. A 63% decline in just two decades. The Economist says the "most striking" reason is the lack of successful startups.

63% declines are something you can't repeat too many times without creating the kind of situation historians give names to. Two more such periods, and Europe only has 2 of the top 100 companies."
