It's not a real money economy when you're asking your customers to first convert their money to crypto magic beans. Dealing with crypto exchanges has been shown to be a great way to put your money into scammers' pockets. Customers will blame you when that happens.

If you want to sell skins, why not let customers pay with real money via Stripe or another payment API? It's certainly a much easier integration task than reconciling your game database with the Ethereum state of those assets, and the end-user UX is lightyears better so you'll probably sell a lot more skins.

This Instagram NFT shutdown demonstrates again that the mainstream has no appetite for crypto despite the breathless claims of the past ten years.
Yeah.... but somehow changing the memcpy method improved the audio also of the commenters. Unless the commenters have all the same PC, it all smell like "bias".

I wonder what kind of data they had access to. It's usually much easier to reach AND dump, say, an invoicing system, than what I can only imagine is an extremely large set of user data.

Ok, if there are enough errors it would make the playback problematic, but it would be the same for any kind of data transmitted.

If I'm feeling charitable I could imagine they're perceiving interference differences because the DAC is internal integrated junk.

I've had thinkpads in the past that would output varying degrees of noise on the analog line+headphone outputs. It was highly dependent on what the CPU was doing, how much data it was moving around. It was kind of fun as a sort of audible system instrumentation while developing/testing software. The more optimal I'd get things, the higher pitched the noise became.

But no "audiophile" should be using such cheesy analog output from a computer... At least get some S/PDIF off to the fancy preamp.
> One thing Libertarians have right, is the idea that many government services are out of control with spending and not doing anything to actually help the people they supposedly serve.

How many of those services were purposely broken by libertarians, so that they could be targeted for privatization? I've worked in government, and have yet to see a service run more efficiently or cheaper after it's been privatized. The quality of the service is almost universally worse.

When something is privatized, it's usually given a monopoly via bid. Now you just have a different set of people, with less experience, running the same service, with a percentage of the cost of running the service being siphoned off. There's also an incentive to provide less of the service, or run the service at a worse quality to maximize profit. The government has the option of running the service at a loss, but a private entity does not, further reducing the service quality level, often at the times you need it the most.

When I worked in government, we had a software platform that was privatized. Every few years the contract to run the platform was put up for bid. To improve the likelihood of winning the bid, the vendor made the code purposely incomprehensible, wrote the minimum amount of documentation required, and kept most of the system maintenance manual. They most likely had in-house automation for most of the manual tasks, but that wasn't included with the contract. This also kept the bid price extremely high. When the contracts did switch hands, you'd end up with major operations issues after switchover, and numerous downtime events (this also made it harder for them to win the bid next time). Eventually it was considerably more expensive to contract out, but nothing is ever brought back from privatization.

That clearance may actually work, at least for one of them. The other one I could make work easily too. I’ll check the footprint.
The thing that gets me is they have to know it’ll need to be reproduced under some kind of controlled condition eventually. Unless they were planning on a Theranos style fake it until you make it strategy, I have to wonder if they aren’t sincere.

That’s not to say I think they’ve necessarily achieved their claim. If their procedure is as incredibly fiddly and measurements as subtle as I infer from the stuff I’ve read, that’s a lot of chances for mistakes and noise.
Yeah, I am old enough to have started back when ORM did not existed yet. World with actual tested ORM is way more maintennable, waaay more easy to deal with. You can write your own queries when you really need to ... but should do it only when you really really need to.

Well, good news! There is a newer breed of data-driven audiophiles who rely on hard data and solid engineering.

I don't see how any of this is better using NFT. You have had digital tokens for a very long time without Blockchain. If I make a game with skins I have 2 possibilities: the first one is to only use the in game money system (no real money) at which point there is no point using Blockchain, or use real money to buy skins, at which point I will also have to implement refunds, KYC, reverting transactions, because that is always needed in the real world, and there the convenience of an NFT just disappears.

NFT seems only useful if there is a zero trust situation and irreversibility is wanted, but I see nearly no situation where this is the case.
"why not let customers pay with real money via Stripe or another payment API"

Because stripe takes a massive cut?

"the end-user UX is lightyears better so you'll probably sell a lot more skins"

for now

"This Instagram NFT shutdown demonstrates again that the mainstream has no appetite for crypto despite the breathless claims of the past ten years."

Everybody in the community already knew this. Like you've said, the UX isn't there yet. That's obvious to anyone that is in the space. Nobody was sitting here applauding Meta for their obvious bandwagoning onto the latest thing. Maybe if they actually wanted people to adopt NFTs they should work on improving the UX or build some fucking infrastructure instead of just leeching off the community trying to make a buck. If you want people to display their art as NFTs on instagram, then create an Oculus App that's a virtual art gallery, allow people to display their instagram NFTs in that gallery. Interface with other technologies that already exist in the space. Use your billions and billions of dollars to make the experience better for everyone. They didn't even fucking attempt to build anything.
If you're in the cryptography business I'd just refer to it as digital security. ( Or cybersecurity if you prefer ).

It's the same concept but without the baggage of "crypto".
you don't own the scorpemon though. The second that original game shuts down or decides its not worth hosting that asset you have unique nft to nothing. It's up to the game maker to interpret whatever the hell your nft is worth hence it's not that different to ownership of a star. You can't just make up an imaginary decentralized world where people just make a scorpemon game and host it for free forever lmao. Someone is trying to make a profit.
So the only thing that nft solves is game designers not having to build their market. That does not solve anything for the player. If anything, it exposes the player to a complete loss of his asset, due to mistake or theft. No value in that at all.
I've said it before and I'll say it again:

- Companies should suffer massive fines / damages / criminal charges when they leak the personal data of millions of customers.

- I think EULAs are a ridiculous run-around the law. They should be non-enforceable. Its far from perfect, but case law is pretty clear that people and companies are liable for damages due to foreseeable harm that they cause. (Except EULAs dodge this.) (I am not a lawyer, this is not legal advice.)

Software engineers & security engineers can make just about anything secure. But we can only do so if we're given time and money to hire the expertise when needed. We need to make it incredibly expensive for companies to lose personal data like this. Management teams should be clamoring to hire the best security engineers. But they'll only do so if they're sufficiently motivated.

The risk of massive liability is the right incentive to convince companies to invest in getting information security right. The current status quo is ridiculous.

Carbon Emissions of Writing and Illustrating Are Lower for AI Than for Humans
You can actually use AI to validate some of these answers! For questions involving math, it’s easy to get the LLM to write a problem to solve the problem, then use that to double check the result. For example, with the following prompt to ChatGPT:
‘’’
Can a program that solves the following problem accurately be written, and if so, write it in Python:

{“Problem”: “Perform the following arithmetic operation."
"input": "(5+7)3”}
‘’’
I got the answer:
‘’’
Yes, a program can be written to perform the arithmetic operation given in the input. Here is a Python implementation:

input_str = "(5+7)3" # input string
result = eval(input_str) # using eval function to evaluate the expression
print(result) # output: 36
The eval() function in Python evaluates the expression given as a string and returns the result. In this case, the input string "(5+7)*3" is evaluated to 36. The program then prints the result using the print() function.
’’’
Sources are sketchy.

Those sources I've found report that Kazakhstani bailiffs put an arrest to Russian property (basically they can't move it out of the country) and forbade some manager to leave country as well. I'm not sure if English meaning of word seizure includes those actions, I thought that seizure is more like expropriation and that's not what happening here.

I think that's not serious. It's either some politics or just bureaucracy. While Kazakhstan is not fully supporting Russia, turning away from it seems like an economic suicide.
Yes, of course I mean that, and we've seen how flawed it is when it is either gamed by the left (during training and release control) or right (post release trolling).

I'm taking it as a given that we will have reasonably robust solutions to that by the time it is able to compete with Wikipedia - in which case, for the reasons given it will offer a positive distinguishing input, though I suspect it will be complementary for a time.

Perhaps we'll see a neutrality-bot at some point, automatically flagging some of the problematic behaviour that undermines Wikipedia...
The Electric Air system can provide a lot of dehumidification. For your specific situation dedicated dehumidifiers are probably the right solution, unless you need a fair amount of cooling in addition to the dehumidification. This is because for purely dehumidification you need some reheat after chilling the air to condenser water out. With a dedicated dehumidifier you get this for free from the condenser on the other side of your refrigeration cycle. In the Electric Air system the backup strip heaters provide the reheat in the air handler, but using them a lot is expensive.
I think the Stable Diffusion moment is very dependant on someone creating a commercially licensable version of this somehow. I think the prospect of never being able to put your creations in a product is too inhibitive for the hypergrowth stable diffusion saw.
I was thinking the same, especially as this is about optimizations.

Go back 10 years and many laptops had issues with cpu frequency scaling and sound quality. (Cheap components that would either start producing audible or em noise that would impact sound)

On paper you are 100% correct that it is strictly speaking legally easier to amend this law; but in reality, clearing the majority necessary to amend our Constitution is politically a lower bar than getting 7/8 of the legislature to amend this particular law. We really do amend it regularly and most voters I talk to don’t put a whole lot of thought into whether it’s a constitutional amendment or a statute. If they’re for whatever it is, they’re for it, and if they’re against it, they’re against it. The mechanics matter to a minority of us.

NFTs are probably best thought of as ownership records or certificates for items that could be either digital goods or physical goods. If you want NFTs to be useful as an ownership record for a physical good, then there will need to be some authority in the physical world that agrees to use the NFTs on a specific blockchain as the system of record for transactions of that good. (e.g. local municipalities using NFTs on Ethereum to represent property deeds)

Some benefits of NFTs in the property deed example would be:

- The elimination of the need for municipalities to maintain proprietary databases to hold property deeds
- 24/7 globally accessible property information. (No downtime)
- Standardized and globally interoperable property records across municipalities and potentially countries
- Easy to prove and verify ownership of properties, which could be used to grant access to third party services for homeowners. (e.g. HELOCs)
- Dapps could allow property owners to post the NFT deed as collateral and automate the loan application process to reduce processing costs.
Ad2: Every single real world java project I have seen used hibernate (ORM) with flyway. I never ever seen any project in production where some underlying tech would be deleting tables autonomously.

Ad1: People do debug ORMs, actually. Including queries effectivity.
I don't find it surprising. This happens in every project I run. It's almost a guarantee that when you ban someone they will come back with a new account and when you ban their IP they start using VPNs. It's such a common occurrence and they get more aggressive for every step where they consider it a victory when you manually take action against them. I often need to resort to banning whole IP ranges.

Don't tell us, tell your legislators. Ideally with some kind of narrative that ties to a financial incentive for the lawmaker and his or her constituents.

If the security industry got together and lobbied for this as both a jobs program (security companies offering services to tech companies) and as a means of protecting Americans/constituents, then it might get somewhere.
All of those things you mentioned can probably be solved with Account Abstraction and Application Specific Rollups. These technologies are still in the early stages but are moving along. Not trying to attack, but like a lot of people here, it seems that most people's understanding of Blockchains is stuck in like 2014. There are levels of trustlessness, and levels of irreversibility. None of the things I mentioned (when fully implemented) are going to be happening on the main Ethereum chain.

If you’re already on the cloud and operating at sufficiently large scale, moving to colo is REALLY hard.

It took Dropbox ~2.5 years.

There’s a LOT of room to cut costs by moving off the cloud—AWS has profit margins ~30% even with significant investments into R&D. But I’m not sure that moving off the cloud is the best move for a private equity firm looking to quickly extract returns. It’s a lot easier to tweak pricing / cut staff / etc
I don't disagree with anything you said, but my intuition tells me you're possibly under-estimating the proportion of voters who routinely vote against their self-interest without realizing it.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if that was >30% of voters. Assuming that number I just made up was correct, just for the sake of argument, the parent comment's question is very interesting: what does that say about voters' agency?
I heard it just a couple years ago, when I used a 2G phone. 3G and 4G don’t have that fault.
That shows how important it is to control for all variables. I understand it is difficult to match volume/loudness when AB testing speakers, amps or codecs and that might subtly influence someone’s judgement.

RLHF was not conceived by AI Alignment people. Using RL to train generative models was a thing even ten years ago. Now they finally made it work on scale. This has nothing to do with alignment.
Thanks for expanding on my point. Yes, LLMs or plain algorithms, the capability is here. It just won’t be used for this.
I also had a start when I read this but I can't find another source for this. Anyone have one?
It should not be bizarre. Everybody should adapt and act accordingly, save money and keep your axe sharp. No job is forever, no employer is your friend or family.
They measure duration risk on short term assets but not long term assets like SVBs bonds which are (for better or worse) classified under different rules that allow them to be held to maturity without needing to account for mark-to-market losses for capital assessment purposes.

As a result stress tests which measure various interest rate scenarios, deposit withdrawals and increased bad debt ratios aren't overly affected by these long duration bonds.

That is all good and well as long as these assets truly are held to maturity and forced selling doesn't take place.

Then again, maybe it's fine. These tests are meant to ensure the banks can handle changing economic conditions. They aren't meant to be able to protect banks against a bank run of this scale.
