So, you could collect NFTs of instagram posts? What a weird concept. Reddit avatars make more sense IMHO, they work as a form of status symbol. They are displayed on all your posts and comments, so you can show off your fancy avatar everywhere. I cannot see why anyone would care about a collection of posts.

A: As you know, under communism, the state will be abolished, together with its means of suppression. People will know how to arrest themselves.
> “What's interesting here is that it's not really affecting the perception of people who believe in web3.”

I think that’s the definition of belief: it’s not derived from facts so it can’t be shaken by evidence.
I can!

Okay so take the triangle made by taking the diagonal of the unit square. This has side lengths 1, 1, and c and has area 1/2.

Now, take four of these and arrange them in a square with the side length being c. It would be easier to draw this... basically you stick the right angles in the center. If this isn't clear I can draw a diagram.

Anyway, you just made a square with side length c but since its made of four of those original triangles we know that the area of it is 4 * (1/2) = c^2 so c^2 = 2.

EDIT: made an excalidraw to explain this construction - maybe helpful https://excalidraw.com/#room=2298a8fd232d5f58e8ca,HmUwSqOt6J...
Useless? These algorithms may be simple but they're not toys. This stuff has been used in production. You can certainly improve it but it's not "useless".
>As such this strategy raises a lot of criticism when they start to burn coal.

Except they didnt. Unlike Poland they reduced the amount of coal they used by rather a lot.

While US media is extremely critical of Germany for "not reducing its use of coal fast enough" it is apparently entirely unbothered by Poland not reducing it at all.

This is the American media feigning environmental concern because Germany was less obedient than Poland in following American foreign policy goals.

Well, speaking of a cult, we have NFT.NYC in a few days here in my city. It has many corporate industry sponsors, takes over the largest hotel in Times Square for three days, and many of the billboards. Cults don’t usually have that level of industry involvement. And many people from all over the world will be coming to have fun with NFTs and try out new things.

I guess Bitcoin can be considered a cult, too. HODL became a religion since 2013, after it became obvious Bitcoin wouldn’t be “an electronic peer-to-peer cash system” and the “store of value” aspect of money was the only one left.

> Every time I went into a shop looking for Lego, I no longer see many generic Lego sets

That sounds like an issue with the stores you go to. Even in big department stores I see generic Lego sets (City, Technic, Duplo, etc) next to licensed ones.
You would have to overcome the "barriers to entry", including large up front costs associated with a supermarket, before demonstrating profitability.
What is generally meant by SSG is that at runtime you send fully usable static pages and don't need to run any app logic. This radically expands your options for hosting (S3 + CDN, done). You can't have personalization unless you run app servers, you can provide some alternatives at build time (localization, AB tests) but nothing actually personalized. Whereas with SSR you run an app aware server, which means you can store client state and do everything with it sending to the browser final HTML, but it is more costly.

So to me and many others whether a framework can do SSR or SSG is a very important distinction, critical for infrastructure planning. I often see it being downplayed together with a promotion of various proprietary platforms offering edge computing but this stuff is just not necessary for many cases.

Edit: No idea what terminology is used at NextJS, above is what I think is generally understood by SSG (static site) and SSR (server-rendered site).
Palette cycling was hardware accelerated animation on those platforms, which is why it was used. You could change the palette registers and affect an entire screen much quicker than you could redraw a screen. This is what they meant by hardware accelerated.
From my understanding, medium sized particles are actually the most expensive to filter
Regarding Lego, as long as that IP stuff allows them to keep producing the excellent generic stuff (which is still easy to buy online, less so in stores, at least in Germany), more power to them!

I think the biggest threat to the generic lines is the fact that they have to compete against other generic stuff that's produced cheaper. So they need to differentiate. Amazon is filled to the brim with the no-name generic building blocks that are not as high quality as Lego, and apparently you can't differentiate purely base don the quality alone.

Even in clothing, there are less and less, not high-fashion but high quality for not totally unreasonable price brands.
I don't see how it is a criticism of a rainbow coalition that they are able to redirect people away from intolerance even if the only motivator is self interest.

This is in fact why the republic is structured as it is, should we pretend people are inherently good and switch to a simple democracy that can vote for its first genocide next week?
That isn't how it works.

The mature businesses dial up the greed when there is no competition and dial it down to crush threats. Once the threat is extinguished, up the dial goes again.

Along with all your startup costs, you will be competing against entrenched businesses willing to run at a temporary loss to bleed you dry. They can afford to do this because greed will pay after you are dead.

Capitalism does not create efficient competitive markets offering good value to consumers, government intervention does.
Aha. So it's not the politically-connected who manage to keep IRS at arms-length. No. It is 'something but not political connections' that manages to frustrate the unjust greed of the "plitically connected" to tax rightfully earned profits of these corporations. Must be the "hand of God" ..
Numbers like this are really confusing. Ok there is an year on year decline of 7%. But how does that compare to previous years? Did they grow dramatically and now they are losing some steam? Or has it been declining for the last few years?

One of the biggest losers is supposed to be healthcare(20%). Is that because they had a huge spurt because of the pandemic and now there is a reduction? I am not sure what the other industries are so I am not sure what to make of it.
I send a fair amount of mail to addresses very near where I drop the mail-- as in, in the same ZIP, if not almost the same mail route (but not at the actual post office). I'm constantly puzzled that a) it takes a few days to reach the addressee no matter how close you drop the letter to the destination address and b) when I check, local mail is being postmarked at a regional center fifteen miles away....
A considerable portion of the UK population lives outside London, and a lot of areas aren't necessarily the wealthiest in the world - meanwhile, with companies like Samsung and Google providing decent mid-range devices at much more affordable prices than most of Apple's lineup, they tend to do pretty well here.

I will, however, point out that from the statistics I've seen Apple has roughly half of the market share, with Samsung at about 30% - a pretty decent lead.
School is about social contact and social skills as much as anything else, and they are vital to learn. That needs to be recognised.
In addition to what other people said, they allowed you to resume downloads.

Even if you weren't on dial-up, sometimes downloads would just... pause. Like you'd get to 23% and just wouldn't get any more data from the server. With these programs you could make progress by restarting the download, and it would pick up largely where it left off.

Different strokes for different folks, I guess. And I mean that almost literally. ‘Carrying around a fountain pen’ is definitely a bit of…fetish signalling. Dont get me wrong. I totally understand feeling sad about something that you’re into sinking further into obscurity.

The article starts with the statement: "For more than a thousand years, the spicy ...".

Yea no. Been to Costa Rica many times and no one has AC. People aren’t dying on the streets. My brother in law lived there for 10 years with no AC and it’s hotter, for longer, than my home in the Deep South.

There was a spate of articles in the popular press in the last few years on the subject of "billionaire preppers," most notably this one (which was discussed here): https://www.theguardian.com/news/2022/sep/04/super-rich-prep...

Before, it was easy to dismiss this growth industry as the natural result of certain people having more money than they know what to do with (and perhaps also, depending on your perspective, being overly cautious, or overly paranoid). But now I wonder if they had forewarning, and were making plans to best position and protect themselves for the coming massively destabilizing, winner-take-all wave of AI.
Recently I went for a walk at night. It was a bit hazy in car headlights and such but foolishly I didn't think much of it. When I got home I happened to turn on a flashlight & I realized the air was full of ~1mm ash particles, I believe from a prescribed burn nearby.

The few days after that I had shortness of breath and trouble concentrating. It was pretty alarming. Not wearing a mask, which I had with me, was a big mistake.

I think your suggestion is excellent.
Don’t think there is some conspiracy here. Rich people like to cosplay just as much as your typical suburban family going to Costco. They just have enough money to really spec out their bunkers.

-edit-

But this does illustrate what is wrong with America today. Instead of building magnificent buildings, parks, libraries, and public works those with the means are instead building silly bunkers that won’t last longer than a lifetime. This turn inward and away from society is sad.

I don't think the article is suggesting one gender should dominate.

It is possible that on average one or the other gender will be better at a particular craft. For historic reasons we don't necessarily know where those natural abilities fall. And obviously the average is not a good predictor of how well a particular individuals will do.
English pronunciation is so irregular that using diaereses is pure snobbery.
This. There is no point in expecting capitalists to do anything different. This is a failure of regulators. If you want it to stop, you must: a) Break up monopolies, b) Go after collusion, c) Tax excess profits, d) Disallow mergers and industry consolidation. Unfortunately, in the U.S. the regulators have been sleeping for going on 50 years (with only a few exceptions), and now we have major media, broadband, electricity, gas, utilities, and many other industries consolidated to only a few corporations. Capitalism will always be a war of attrition between industrialists and regulators, and anyone expecting different needs to grow up. Further failure to act will allow a corporate state to coalesce with oligopolistic lock-in. We cannot expect Noblesse Oblige or anything like it: The 5-day 40-hour work week, vacation pay, child labor laws, pensions, were fought for and won by Unions and Labor. No greedy capitalist ever had a conscience, only their wives or children gave away money.
If they represent any meaningful profit margin, they get swallowed by capital unless a government prevents it.

There are no "mom and pop" grocery stores in my area. We have "Metro" or "Express" versions of the mega chains instead. You can stand outside one and see two others and there won't be a single independent until you get into a different area that the chains don't consider sufficiently profitable.

I agree that the privatisation of the USPS would be a very bad thing. However the language you’re using, esp, in the second point, is optimised to be alarmist at the expense of being accurate. You aren’t doing anybody any favours by being intellectually dishonest.

Is it a closed dataset, or are they selling it to other companies? Your language evokes privacy concerns. I’m sure you know that, and I’m sure that that’s intentional. Using someone’s handwriting as training data for OCR, as part of a training dataset significantly large enough to be used as training data in the first place, does not pose a material additional privacy concern.
Having a single payer healthcare system would increase taxes but could decrease overall costs by 50% (since US pays 2x what other equivalent countries pay).

Beyond that, we have an issue where corporations and high-net worth individuals aren’t paying taxes, which could prevent onerous taxes on the middle class. No nation really taxes the rich (cf. the Panama Papers).
That was my take at the time as well, but now with tech like GPT and Midjourney, I wonder.
"Dogfooding" means company employees are testing a new feature or service before making it available to the public. This suggests that Google is accidentally sending out cash to random users for "testing" Google Pay features instead of paying their employees who actually tested them.

As a follow-up, Google informed the affected users that they would try to reverse the payment, but if they are unable to, the cash is theirs to keep. Do you happen to be one of those lucky Pixel users?

Japan isnt really over it but theyve become increasingly focused on nuclear weapons potential after North Korea got nukes and started lobbing missiles over their heads. Their trust in the US nuclear umbrella isnt unlimited.

It's the same reason Iran, Sweden and South Korea maintain a nuclear industry despite it not being particularly economic for any of them. They all have geopolitical concerns that drive them to want to be able to manufacture a nuke at short notice.

Unlike with Sweden, South Korea and Japan we are told to believe that Iran is pursuing nuclear power as a means of being able to acquire weapons.
As someone embedded in the space and tending to be an apologist for the technology here: I'm really sorry for your friend.
