My city (NYC) alone spends $31.5 BN per year for preK-12 education [1]. NYC's population is 8.15 million, or less than 2.5% the population of the entire country.

For $30 BN/year the entire country gets 5th generation gets that are by far the best in the world, and for $31.5 BN a single city gets to fund its public education with results that are (maybe) average for the OECD countries.

HN should be a place where bitcoin improvement protocols are routinely discussed

There should have been taproot and schnorr discussions on the frontpage for years

What people are building as betas, there should be ordinals and inscription discussions about their technical implementation

But instead we get these surface level discussions about bitcoin or crypto for over a decade now. People completely missing that there are others who had the exact same information and said “okay this is how I can improve it to more closely fulfill that vision” instead of “harumph! that will never work and I dont like it so there’s that!
I just purchased a mint N64 with a new-in-box OEM Nintendo controller (it is TIGHT). Console came with Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Mario, Kart, Smash Bros. A few hundred $$$ investment, for: 3 N64s; 9 Controllers; ExPak; dozen top-shelf games, few crap; HDMI output on one; bunch of Pokemon +x-fer pack [gave to friend for cheap].

A local pawnshop had good copies of Ocarina+Mask; a friend wanted an N64 so I found one with expansion pak (which came bundled with Donkey Kong + Pokemon, which I also sold to friend)... Conkers and Rocket are on my wishlist [they are one hundred$/each].

I'm about to replace all the internal batteries for another few decades of cartridge savestates. So much time. So many memories.

All to say: the N64 Controller is a thing of beauty, and I cannot wait to dual-wield with dual controllers and 8MB RAM. I'm just under forty. Christmas came early.
> If your goal is to effect change, hurting people's self esteem is a negative effect that is entirely unnecessary to change.

Yes, your self esteem will likely be harmed if you do something bad and it gets found out.

This is one of my few favorited comments on HN. It's a great rubric on how to regularly give your company a "performance review", and how to decide if the company has failed and it's time to leave.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20609978

Of course everyone's ability to leave might differ, depending on personal circumstances and job market. But at least it's good to know what you do and don't like about your job, and what you want to try to improve, if leadership is amenable.
This comment gives me the impression that you're one of those people who disparages cryptocurrency.
>Why are they building coal plants if they are not going to increase their coal fired output?

Because 30% of their GDP comes from construction - building coal plants creates jobs. And as a marginal benefit, they even get a spare coal plant at the end. They've been building all sorts of infrastructure projects that don't make sense to build, coal isn't special here.
> How is it possible for God to not be the cause of all things since he's is the creator of all things? If god did not cause something then that means there is something that god did not create and came from somewhere else.

> Revelation 21:6 - I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.

Indeed, he created all things at least at their Base level and maybe a little bit of customization over generations to intervene in things for specific reasons. But one fo the things he made was life and that includes human beings and he imbued them with free will, which is what we were discussing. So the free will animates or allows these organisms to behave randomly at times mostly to enjoy unique traits and characteristics and preferences, but also to learn how to be like God and to love too. But this requires that it be a choice, to the extent of someone's knowledge of who God is.

> So god did not create sin? This seems in contradiction with him creating all things.

He did not, except to the extent that he allows choice in matters of love or no love and the ultimate consequence of this to be reflected on a temporary physical world. Sin is more like evil - it is the absence of something.

> Genesis 3:16 - To the woman He said, “I will greatly multiply Your pain in childbirth, In pain you will bring forth children; Yet your desire will be for your husband, And he will rule over you.

> Sound like blame and punishment to me that all women get to share for ones choice long ago to eat from the tree of knowledge, pure idiocy.

Yeah, it kinda does suck. But just like sin entered the world through their choices, eternal life and heaven became available to everyone because of what Jesus did. That's what the rest of the book says, in a nutshell. So it's a fair trade. But for them, it was still a pleasant world if you think about it. They were the only ones and they pretty much just got booted out of the Garden of Eden and had to live in their own settlement and stop making so much noise around God's guarden for a while. They were so dependent on God for everything, even some clothing, that God had to install some automation to block the entrance back into the house so that they could finally become self-reliant and dominate everything and have adventures and love. And yes, unfortunately sometimes face evil.
I wouldn't fully disagree, but I would point out that they had a ton of press at the time for virtue of who they were. Indeed, a large part of why we still talk of them doing this contest, is because of who they were and are.

More directly, though, if you were to plot subscriptions to Netflix over time across an unlabeled chart, would you be able to see this contest?
Wasm shouldn't have any more capabilities than Javascript, it's theoretically the same sandbox with all the same underlying system access (or lack thereof). However, that doesn't mean I can vouch for the implementations.
Are they accepting new subscriptions again? I signed up for the waiting list but have not received any news.
At the 80-90's all was returnable glass (In Europe at least).

You bought the drinks, which were distributed in glass bottles (with stickers of the brand and everything. Like the actual plastic bottles), latter you returned the glass bottles to the store and they gave you money for it.

One day started to be promoted Tetra Brik, whose interior is made of plastic. This coincided with a proliferation of large supermarkets, that burst in selling products cheaper than local neighborhood stores (the place were was returned the glass bottles). It was marketed at TV as super ecologic, better than the glass, and that it could be thrown in the bin.

Plastic bottles for drinks were introduced immediately afterwards.

The local neighborhood stores didn't survived the large supermarkets dumping, but at that time the plastic bottles was already introduced.

EDIT: I have no clear when was introduced the aluminum cans, whose interior is plastic also.
Your source is not reliable for any information regarding any topic, but is especially unreliable for topics involving Jews or Israel.
But, you can get API access for GTP 4.x and use it in your own workflows. And those workflows may contain tooling and info which you can't provide at ChatGPT. Maybe it's still worth paying $20 / month for, but I also haven't used ChatGPT for months.
> But if the code is openly public and autonomous, and there's no outright deceit, I don't think gambling is really gambling.

But there's plenty of outright deceit. Many (most?) memecoins are some form of pump & dump. It doesn't really matter whether the code is openly public if the winners are chosen ahead of time by pre-allocating tokens.

Edit: Also actual gambling meets your criteria here. While the source code of slot machines is not public, it is typically audited to ensure it offers the odds that are advertised.
Yes, the number of unfilled tech positions has stopped growing but the absolute number is still in the hundreds of thousands in the US alone. There is no shortage of jobs. Maybe there will be, but there isn’t and hasn’t been.

I didn't ask what GPT or 3 random people said. why can't you articulate your own position?
I think a big component is definitely the bitterness that comes from tech savvy people being aware of when it was just getting started and watching it go from pennies to tens of thousands without buying any. I remember when it was on Slashdot all the time in the late 2000s, the hivemind agreed that it would never lead anywhere, and so I dismissed it as well. There were even Bitcoin Faucet sites where you could go and just get 5 BTC for free, no questions asked.

I still don't own any and don't want to, but there is the demon at the back of my head telling me that I could've just mined some or clicked the button on the faucet. After all we all knew about it. I know that most people wouldn't have held onto it for 14 years, but it's not a rational feeling.
I see more and more DVD collections on TikTok lately. I’m not sure how widespread it is but I think DVDs are coming back. It can be hard to find specific movie or shows streaming anymore even when willing to buy a digital copy and hope if doesn’t get taken away when you cancel prime or whatever.

It’s got to be different depending on your goals. Do you want to join a local jazz band? Go the singer / songwriter route and hit up open mic nights? Set up a bedroom studio and put out breakcore tracks? Write classical choir pieces? Just keep in mind your goals when you’re studying, so you don’t end up, like, stubbornly slogging through counterpoint for four months and hating every moment of it, only for you to forget it all because you want to write rock songs.

Like the other commenter pointed out, it was quite routine during jim crow in the US for white people to assert that black people were not oppressed in any way. I'm not as close to the oral history of south africa but I'd be surprised if it had been different there. Quite simply I do not trust your motive and judgement on this.
This is extremely well known and the tooling has been in place and optimized for years.

>No one can simply state "I am not interested in Bitcoin" in a discussion without triggering some "response". Regardless of the merits of Bitcoin, or absence of them, that is fscked up. Red flag.

If the topic is some positive news about a technology (Bitcoin or otherwise), and your only contribution is "I am not interested in this" then you'll probably trigger a response. Might also be time to revisit the commenting guidelines.

Because that isn't private? Instead of Netflix tracking what you watch, it's some other site.

Sites which usually come with awful ads and tracking to pay for the gargantuan amount of bandwidth a streaming platform needs.

When I say private, it means that absolutely no one except me and my computer needs to know that I'm watching Xena for the hundredth time.
If there were a technological civilization there we'd have heard their radio broadcasts. [sad-face] - because I wish we had. It'd be nice to have neighbours.
Appreciate the insight, very disappointing! Sadly, TF2 is in a practically unmaintained and unplayable state right now and it's a game that is still beloved by its fans all these years later. Any efforts to inject life back into the fanbase seem to be met with indifference from Valve at best and outright callous opposition at worst.
The nightmare situation is them using it and claiming it works with the 'correct interpretation' and that being admissible in court whether or not it does work.

We dodged a bullet with the 'polygraph' but times have changed and I could see something like that being accepted.

We already have 'fire forensics/arson investigation' which is complete bullshit and just so pseudoscience as well as a lot of other bullshit science around forensics and DNA and questionable 'experts'.

That coupled with the unreliability of witness statements, the bullshit around sniffer dogs and it's a wonder there are any guilty people in prison at all.
Ads are pretty much the deal breaker for me. I still enjoy streaming because:

1. I can watch it pretty much anywhere, anytime, in whatever order I want.
2. I can choose to pay a higher price for no ads.

Those alone make it better than when we had Dish. Without those, might as well set sail.
Chrome sound wasn't working for me on Linux, but after going into "Site Settings" (from the menu to the left of the URL) and explicitly changing "Sound" from "Automatic (default)" to "Allow", it seems to work perfectly.
And yet if you were to visit Iran and attempt to access that wealth you'd quickly discover how little of that wealth is actually yours.

It's not just that it's in the cloud, it's the only form of wealth you can keep digitally AND only you have access and control over it.

Maybe that's fine because you're a good citizen who follows the rules, but some people are born into places where they don't get the privilege of a fair financial system, or the system changes on them.
I wonder what happens when an unregulated market that can be easily manipulated is connected to a 'normal' stock exchange through instruments like Bitcoin ETF.

Yeah... up until now, we've had the privilege of trusting that everyone "on the wire" speaking "our protocol" is a conscious being, deserving (at least in theory) of our time and respect in return for their own.

Again, your argument boils down into “everyone’s xenophobic so we might as well all get used to it.”

It assumes that there’s something inherently and inextricably culturally prejudiced and that’s just flat wrong and has been proven over and over.

Even if it weren’t wrong, it’s not any kind of world to live in and everyone should be doing all they can to try to fix it.

You should compare your arguments with Richard Lynn and see how close they are. Perhaps that will give you pause:

If they want to learn how it's going to fuck over society (even if they want to avoid that) it makes some weird sort of sense to be the ones applying the breaking pressure. Assuming good faith, this is where they'd best learn how to avoid the pitfalls.

ChatGPT is absolutely a symptom here of the underlying problem. Frankly I think it's possible that OP is being too solicitous with these requests. Why does this other team think OP needs a constant input of new ideas? Why do they feel comfortable repeatedly second guessing OP in OP's are of expertise? It sounds like the planning process is totally out of whack. If they were clipping ideas out of a magazine and asking OP to do them it could be just as bad.
I'm guessing that they were poor immigrant enclaves in the past. My understanding is that people have also sometimes differentiated between Western Europe versus Eastern Europe with Western Europe being considered more similar to American culture and perhaps by extension "less backwards".

This is completely irrelevant because the protocol is designed to scale difficulty with the hashrate. The only benefit of improving J/Ghash is to get a leg up on other bitcoin miners.

They are not making their own, it's a function of the controller of the USB-C PD port they use.
Mattresses are highly subjective, especially because a decent chunk of the population doesn't have particular requirements for one (i.e. no back or neck problems and general health make it easy to sleep on a rock).

However, there is a discrete consistency to picking a durable mattress that has advantageous qualities such as support and whatnot, and none of those mattresses are made of quality, durable materials that will provide lasting benefits for sensitive people.
I tested it myself, like `ssh git@rando.github.com` and that didn't work.

That was my interpretation of the original comment. (reading it again, it seems like it was indeed saying what I typed below)

It seems like the reply was saying instead you can do in your .ssh/config file

Host work.github.com
HostName github.com
Host me.github.com
HostName github.com

(or just leave out the .github.com in the Host part)

So `ssh git@me.github.com` now works...

And then key the github config off of that? But I didn't try that part. So I could be wrong there.
Ah, based on the sibling comment sounds like I was mistaken.

I’d say that it requires good arm design for that to work. This might seem obvious, but I have a watch that I like as an accessory because the “arms” make cool hatch patterns, but the minute and hour hand are not distinct enough to be read at a glance. Now, I purposefully bought the watch as a fashion piece so I’m satisfied, since I always have my phone, but it turned out to be a lot less legible than I thought!
