I often like to bring up a thought-experiment involving a drug (or brain-parasite) where one dose makes the person willing to commit any crime or violence in order to secure another hit, even selling their kids into slavery and cutting off their own leg. Also multiple doses kills the person, and it has no medical value whatsoever.

IMO this helps highlight the spectrum we're dealing with, where one point is "taking that is a bad choice but I support your freedom of choice and autonomy", and another might be "holy shit this doom-substance so irredeemably anti-freedom that banning it is obviously the best practical choice."

Even if you look at such a drug as a roundabout form of suicide, it's one where the person must be blocked from harming others on their way out.

Some of us are just old. We have seen countless hype cycles. Many hyped up things do not pan out. So we all have a “show me” kind of attitude now.

Also for things that do pan out, they sometimes comes with unforeseen negative consequences.*

As a result, it’s hard to get excited about ”great new thing” these days.

In an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation a redshirt used a tricorder to check the weather and said they would have to beam up soon because a storm was approaching.

At the time I thought to myself: “Bah, that’s never happening, it’s pure fantasy!”

A few years later I told some friends we’d have to pack up our picnic because according to the weather radar app on my phone we had about 7 minutes until we got drenched… no wait… 6 minutes.

5m:30s later we were standing under shelter watching the storm front rolling in, and I remembered that Star Trek scene.

By easier they probably mean “it’s easier to do the same thing” - eg centering a div.

It’s also become deeper at the same time though - so it might be easier to do the same thing and harder to know it all.
Valid point. Ironically the main benefit of semantic markup is now an abstraction to help the human developers effect styling and control.

SEEKING WORK | Europe / Estonia | Remote preferred, Onsite possible

Hi, my name is Till.

I always like to help people, so if you need help with anything, let me know! :)

I usually work remotely, but I'm open to traveling to visit you. I can help get things running, especially when you're a young startup or launching a new project.

For example, maybe you have written a web app and need it deployed to the cloud. Or maybe you want to scale your product to meet the demand. Or maybe you want to launch your app in a new market, requiring a translation system and a new cloud deployment strategy. I can help make these things possible!

I most often write back-end services or cloud deployments.

Buzzwords: C#, F#, .Net, JavaScript/Typescript, Rust, Elm, C/C++, AWS (Cloudformation, CDK, S3, CloudFront, ECS, Lambda, RDS...), CI/CD, Rust, and Terraform

I've also worked with hiring and product planning. You can also reach out if you just want feedback on your app or code.

> The USA and a few other cultures have unfortunately devalued shame to the point where it holds nearly no cultural power.

It sounds like you are advocating for the virtues of oppression and the subjugation of anyone or anything that does not fit your norm.

> (...) many people unfortunately need an authority figure (...)

Let me stop you right there, and make it quite clear to you how profoundly idiotic and prejudicial your personal opinion is.

As you seem to advocate that people unfortunately need an authority figure, I'm sure you will acknowledge your need to be put in your place when you step out of line with this blend of nonsense, and simply succumb to the shame you should be rightfully feeling for your regrettable opinion.

If not, perhaps you can start to understand why your opinion makes absolutely no sense.

InScope | Full-Time | Founding Engineer | San Francisco Bay Area, ONSITE

I'm Avy, CTO and co-founder at [InScope](https://inscopehq.com), where we're automating financial statements and audits. My co-founders, Mary and Kelsey, suffered many audits first-hand as finance and accounting leaders at high-growth tech companies like Flexport, Miro, Yelp, and Dropbox.

Investors and other stakeholders require audited financials from every private company that hits certain growth milestones, ensuring the health of the company before they can receive funding or raise debt. Today, finance teams prepare for their audits using Word, Excel, and a whole lot of human effort. We're seeking to change that with software.

We are participating in Better Tomorrow Ventures' fintech accelerator and are looking for a senior founding engineer. The role will be fast-paced: You will set up systems from scratch, solve a mix of full stack product engineering problems, and build AI-infused data workflows. Our early prototypes are built with Python, React, dbt, and DuckDB, but you'll help us choose our production stack.

We believe in distributed teams and will be flexible about remote work, but early-on we expect you to be based in San Francisco to allow for fast collaboration cycles.

Send me a note at avy@<the-domain-listed-above>, or you can find more info here:

This is the dark secret to USD: pretty much everyone is relying on the same massive C++ project!

Generally it never makes sense to use interchange formats for a runtime use.

Take the predominant game development format: FBX. It’s used strictly for interchange not runtime.

The use of USD is exactly the same. You’d compile it into a runtime friendly format that benefits your specific runtime.

> "Did you read the article?"

Yes. It's about compulsive behavior.

Marijuana is not begging to be smoked. It is not punishing users with cannabis-specific withdrawal symptoms. If you eat ice cream every day, that's a behavior problem, not an "ice cream addiction".

The help you receive should be about improving life balance, making better choices and moderating the desire to kick back in a haze of relaxation.

> "I don't know what point you're trying to make here. That everyone who uses it does so because they want to?"

Obviously those who smoke weed, want to smoke weed. I thought my point was pretty clear.

Any "struggle" is with themselves and other factors in their life and routine. The noise and sharp edges of sober life in this modern world, is not everyone's cup of tea. Combine that with compulsion and impatience to "fix" (mask) that problem with a quick smoke, and you have substance abuse.

"Marijuana" or "ice cream" plays little part in a person's root issue in wanting to escape reality full time/delight their taste buds full time instead of the more commonly moderated occasional use.
Japan and South Korea are allies of the US. They are also much too small in population and resources to reach a level of economic power that would allow them to do anything on their own.

The Chinese Communist party has the resources, people and determination to follow a different course. It might underperform relative to its size, and the one-child policy is going to cause a disastrous demographic situation, but even if you consider just coastal, urban China, that's getting pretty close to US in terms of people and economic power. The communist party is developing its military capabilities at a fast clip, and fusing its military and civilian economies to accelerate its technical development. Where almost every other government has been unable to wrestle control of Internet information, the Chinese Communist party has successfully turned its version of the Internet into an effective tool of govt propaganda and social control.

In other words, there are lots and lots of very concrete reasons to believe that the post-development trajectory of China can be very different from Japan's or South Korea's.

So excluding crypto/web3 for the above reasons, does anyone have recommendations for non stripe mostly us friendly solutions?
That is for sure a reasonable basis for a fundamental theory of value for gold - that there is demand other than from investors, but that’s not revenue[1]. Revenue is income generated by an activity or company. As an investor, you don’t get to benefit from cash arising from the demand for jewellery and industrial uses of gold without selling. The mark to market on your position should benefit but you don’t get cash.

So for that reason it is still a negative carry asset (ie it costs money to hold on an ongoing basis).

Do you actuality have a particular issue to raise though? Why was your account shut down?

> when you make a decent amount of sales they will shut down your account

I mean they do give you some explanation, right? It might not be super clear (it sometimes can't due to laws) but it's not "you are now processing much volume, goodbye". That's just not in Stripe's interest at all and assuming that high volume alone is the reason is not helpful.

What happens is likely that only after a certain amount of volume review processes get kicked off. So it's perceived as some form of injustice when often the issue is fundamentally with the business or failure to comply with requirements, and other PSPs might not even let you use them in the first place.

Personally I think there should maybe be earlier vetting to avoid this (as it's bad UX for those users) but it does come at the cost of having bad initial get-started UX for the vast majority of users that can be supported.

Those won't go and complain anywhere. So really, just stating "Stripe shut down our account, bad Stripe" isn't helping anyone and it isn't helping you either because nobody will be able to give you advice.

Their support getting worse I understand. I do think there are cases that could be turned around without having to resort to social media.
That’s like finding green patches after a wildfire and pointing out that wildfires aren’t all bad.
My impression is that the lack of knowledge of what/why is kinda the point: it's the server's job to make the intent clear (via hypermedia), and it's the client's job to faithfully represent that intent to the user. The use-case is therefore related to that of the "semantic web": provide as much expressivity for that intent as possible, and make it as easy as possible for the client to faithfully convey it.

I hate zippers but when I have to use them I'll look for YKK as I've had the least trouble with that brand.

Zippers are my nemesis, of all inanimate objects that I come across in my life they consistently cause me the most trouble.

It doesn't matter if they're on my sleeping bags, jackets or the fly on my pants, they jam, the teeth pull out, the limit/stop staples at the ends fall out rendering the zipper useless. Fabric gets clogged in the zipping mechanism and it's often impossible to extract it without it tearing—sleeping bags are a disaster in this regard with their super long zippers.

The more expensive a jacket is the more likely the zipper will fail, then there's the problem of aligning jacket zippers, the two parts never properly engage or they jam. And on two-part zippers where there's effectively two zippers in one, aligning the bits can be a major undertaking. They never align when one's in a hurry.

As a male, I've had pants fly zippers draw blood—a painful experience to say the least. Also it's highly embarrassing when one's fly zip breaks and one comes apart at the seams, also fly zippers have habit of just undoing themselves and often one isn't aware of the fact until someone embarrassingly points to one's unzipped state.

Then there's the problem of replacing or fixing zippers. Often, I've had to sew cotton at the end of a zipper when the end staple falls out, and after the repair meshing the teeth together again where the staple used to be is a pain—I think I've fixed it only for the zip to completely fall apart after zipping up. And it's nigh on impossible to replace a lost tooth midway down a zipper (it quickly falls out again and the zipper unfurls in an instant).

Replacing a pants fly zipper is a major undertaking and it's best they're sent out for repair—on the other hand even I can sew back a button in moments, it's a trivial exercise. Moreover, if one loses a single fly button it's much less embarrassing than the gaping gap left by a failed zipper.

The only thing I hate on clothes more than zippers is Velcro, those who inflict us with that awful product ought to be put in the stocks for days on end. Velcro is damn useless after several washes, it collects lint and or otherwise stops sticking.

Give me reliable buttons any day.

I would be able to do my job somewhat high, but not drunk.
Smoking a joint the day before work has minimal impact on my performance, I would argue it increases it because of a good nights sleep. Drinking alcohol on the other hand…

Disagree. I remember the early days of it - I paid what it says I'd pay and the hosts were real people renting out their space and it worked just fine, and was an excellent solution for places where hotel prices were insane or no hotels were around where I needed to be at all. Then it got big, and became investment vehicle, and all kinds of weird fees started and now it's much easier to just book a hotel.

When the news had first made the rounds several days ago, the overwhelming sentiment that I felt was "meh, this seems so unprofessional. Probably just another fabrication, like all the previous ones. I guess we might as well check just to be sure". Kind of an exaggeration, but this is what I took away then.

Now that any data from third parties starts slowly dripping in, the perception seems to be changing to very cautious curiosity. No experts are putting their reputation on the line for what little information we have, but interest in this topic is definitely rising. Hence why I said they were 'iffy'.
> As the other comment said, you’re also discussing “being shamed” whereas the original comment is about “feeling shame”. Similar but far from identical.

No, not really. OP clearly advocates for "the need of an authority figure" to force his personal views onto others he feels are lacking in the way of morals. OP's puerile take on "shame" is just a thinly veilled desire to oppress everyone and anyone around them that does not comply with his personal views.

The underlying assumption being that the only alternatives are prison and crime.

Suppose nonviolent criminals get sentenced to restitution and community service and only go to prison if they fail to complete their community service. Now you want to go out stealing catalytic converters and you're going to find that doing a bunch of free labor while giving half the wages from your paid labor to your victims is a lot less profitable than just doing honest work.

And surely you can recognise that others can have a very different view of what's shameful, that's at odds with your own rosey view of it as a tool against self destructive behaviour?

Various religions and political groups have used and continue to use shame against the lgbt community, using monikers like sinful or perverse to shame them for who they are by grading them against some flawed ideal that they themselves often fail to attain.

I mostly consider myself a back-end person at this point and I'd prefer it to remain this way. I think it's more interesting to think about the system as a whole than to fiddle with some search option button design because back-end didn't add any Swagger docs or something.
My preferred stack is Clojure and I'd be very happy to work with it.

I don't like Golang's approach when code is generated from plaintext comments in code. Don't offer me jobs that prefer that the code will have to remain this way. Additionally Java's annotation-driven and Python's class decorator approaches also aren't too good and for this reason I didn't do a lot of Spring development.

I also have Master's in Vilnius University and I worked in NLP company in the past. I didn't do any research there. I'd consider jobs in companies that use the models or ChatGPT/LLM.

No, you've added a word, and left out a different word. They claim to have "identified a novel attack vector".

An "attack vector" is not necessarily a TTP used by threat actors, it is a way in. Whether it is used or unused, an attack vector is an attack vector.

Yes, they've documented threat actors actively using it. And SSPR used against several other services before this one. But the claim is in the lede sentence: "novel attack vector".
