Over/under nutrition is locally controllable.

Micro plastics is like CO2. Spread out everywhere, can't be sequestered or reversed.

Rather than saying it's not a problem now — it's worth saying what's the threshold beyond which health complications begin (that number can't be infinity), and based on current growth levels how far we're off from it. If that's like at current rate of growth we still have 5000 years, then yeah I would agree with you and ignore the news. But just saying retrogressively that there is no conclusive evidence based on what we're eating so far – unfortunately sounds only politically correct, without considering the spirit of doing science (exploring the horizons / where the limits are).
Right, at this point, exposure to bitcoin is easy . this is not 2012 anymore.

Actually, many car companies source all sorts of parts from elsewhere. Not just tyres, though you'd be pretty pissed if your new Ford could only use Ford tyres. It's also under the hood (literally (literally)); Bosch is pretty big in that space, for example.

How in the world are they going to make money on this? Perhaps the hardware is cheap to manufacture, but with no subscription I feel like they are going to get taken to the cleaner on LLM API fees. Even if they're running the LLM themselves, it's not cheap. Could they really be getting enough margin on the device to pay their staff _and_ all of that infra?

Or maybe this is another VC-backed sale price :)
Maybe we're just splitting hairs on what it means to be "a webpage", but I feel like people are _not_ writing webpages in WebAssembly. Instead, you get video games, interactive animations, photo editing apps, ... Basically, desktop-app like things, but generally without a DOM, without CSS. The look and feel diverges quite strongly, a user kind of intuits they're no longer in a regular web-app.

To my frustration, WebAssembly is not replacing JS/TS and it's abominable toolchains, it ends up delivering a new suite of experiences, by adding another layer of abominable toolchains.

There's also low level "helper"-libraries getting developed in WASM, e.g. a database implementation, but wondering if that ever takes off, managing bindings is rough and library size/bootstrapping can end up bloated. And it certainly does't get us out of JS/TS-dev land.
Hilariously bad defense.

Accessibility APIs are another way to do it. You can't break them because you have a bunch of angry blind people at your doorstep, but accessibility and automation are very closely related. If you expose your UI to a screen reader, you also expose it to whatever other apps want access.
Take a look at the current gen flippy phones (Galaxy Flip 5, Moto Razr+). I've had the latter for a few months, purchased basically because the outer screen is actually usable. With the phone folded shut, it's pretty much a small phone. I can easily reach every corner of that outer screen with my thumb.

I am not a fan of crypto, but I don't think tweet affecting something like that is an indicator of anything.

My elderly parents were my idea too, and the fact that I can manage the integration from my computer is actually a plus here. It's not like you have to do it all the time.

It has to be able to make phone calls and text on WhatsApp/Signal too, though.
> Imagine your bank balance is suddenly worth half as much because someone wrote a tweet.

That's just as possible with regular stocks, which Twitter's owner has (unrelatedly) demonstrated multiple times in the past with both Tesla and Twitter... or, a bit slower, in the early covid months.

Stock markets are insanely sensitive to "insider" information and breaking news in general, which is why the regulations around them are so strict.
How is Twitter still taken seriously?
He clearly learnt how to use Facebook, no small feat there...

Honestly though someone asked me about developing a website, I pointed them at a local provider and they had a custom domain + email + a template driven website up in literally 5 minutes... They needed to know how to use a credit card and a web browser.

Pretty sure there are similar experiences all over, I can't really speak for other countries to be fair and I am not those places target market. I pay for a VPS and deploy whatever I want on it vs the guy that asked me for a website who doesn't even know what a domain name is.

There are products for both of us.

> You could buy a lot of storage for the difference.

Theoretically yes, but is it actually available?
That's the thing though: the energy is stored in natural gas or oil but I still need to extract it. I can't heat my room by pumping it full of natural gas or filling it with oil.

To raise the temperature of my 300 square feet room by one degree I need the same amount of energy, no matter the source. But the ways of delivering that energy aren't the same.

If I have a simple gas burner, I need to know how much gas do I have to burn to heat my room. It will keep me warm, but it's not a good idea. Burning gas with a flame makes other gases that I don't want inside. I need to vent them, but I will lose some heat through that.

I can also get a gas furnace that condenses those byproduct gasses in a second heat exchanger for extra efficiency. Maybe seal it up better too. It needs a little electric power for ignition, so I need to take that into account. But overall, it would be more efficient. I would need less gas to heat my room.

Even though I'm using gas in both examples, the efficiency is different. It depends on how I convert that gas into heat.

I can also burn that gas in a generator to produce electric power. Then I can use that electric power for a resistive heater. Not a great idea, but it's an option.

I don't have to burn the gas myself. I can delegate generating power to a gas-fired power plant and buy power from them. And I can use a heat pump instead of a resistive heater. My heat pump will use less power than a resistive heater, so that's good, I suppose.

The question remains: how much gas do I (or a power plant) have to burn to heat my room. The answer depends on what do I use the gas for and how. That's the efficiency.
There's also the stigma of being a web only platform in the view of the younger users.
“Half as much” is unnecessary exaggeration. All assets with a high reading volume can be manipulated with a tweet. News of a Bitcoin ETF is no different than positive news for any other asset. I think your bias is making you ignorant to general market mechanics.
How about graying out the button, but adding a tooltip on hover that tells the user why they can't click
It’s not irrational: an ETF would make it a lot easier to buy Bitcoin, which would increase demand. It’s funny though, because if Bitcoin would work as well as advertised, a traditional exchange shouldn’t offer this kind of advantage.
Clicking on any blue check mark shows "this account is verified". But that isn't supposed to mean verified?

OpenAI says it's "impossible" to create AI models without copyrighted material
Agree. I would not touch it. Poor risk to reward ratio compared to stocks or other alternatives, too much risk.
It's worse than a "solution in search of a problem." It's a problem in and of itself. Networked appliances almost always need some remote back-end to talk to. But companies don't have much incentive to maintain those back-ends for the 10-year+ life of a washing machine, coffee maker, refrigerator, etc.

So you end up in at least one of two situations: Either you lose functionality over time as companies deprecate those back-ends even though the hardware is still good (i.e., forced obsolescence leading to e-waste), and/or your outdated device ends up being a target for botnets to propagate themselves.

IoT is such a damn scam in the long-term.

Glad to see that it's been watered down to "just as bad as" arguments.
The more interesting (and far less ethically challenging) use would be to understand why it is they're doing this.

Explanations like "it thinks it's building a nest" (mentioned in related [1]) on the one hand or "play" on the other (my own) do seem very unsatisfying. Do they really not realize there is no resultant nest, and have they been observed using it as a nest subsequently?

Cool product but I agree with others that their site does not really demonstrate the value proposition of the device in a clear way. You shouldn't have to watch the keynote to understand what it is.

I also have a hard time believing it will work as well as they say it does gen-1 at a $200 price point. I'm very skeptical.

The teenage engineering design is nice though, looks like something out of the movie Her.

$199 with no subscription? You must have to bring your own data sim card. Or can it get its connection from your phone? And is the AI stuff running locally on the device? Impressive if so. Suspicious if not; there's no way the service remains free forever.

Pretty compelling price, and I'm certain the vision of AI agents that can use any existing app or website to take actions on your behalf is the future of computing. But there's no room in my pocket for a second device. I don't see how a device is going to succeed when an equivalent app for existing phones seems around the corner.

This is quite literally not a pump and dump by the SEC.

A pump and dump would require the same entity to be doing the buying, pumping up, and then dumping the asset.

The SEC didn’t buy, nor did it sell, nor did it pump up the price (someone pretending to be the SEC pumped up the price).

Even assuming that the “largest pump and dump” claim is correct, at most, the SEC was used for that purpose and isn’t “responsible” for it.

By default any code loaded into something like SBCL gets AOT compiled.

In Common Lisp not anything can change at any moment. Especially not in implementations where one uses AOT compilation like SBCL, ECL, LispWorks, Allegro CL, ... and so on. They have optimizing compilers which gradually can remove dynamic runtime behavior, upto supporting almost no dynamic runtime behavior.

Stuff which is supported: type specific code, inlining, block compilation, removal of development tools, ...

JIT implementations are rare in the Common Lisp world. They are mostly only used in implementations which use a byte-code virtual machine (CLISP, ABCL, ...). Common Lisp implementations mostly compile either directly to native code or via C compilers. The effect is that native AOT compiled code is much faster.
I'd expect some upward pressure on price because the ETFs will own bitcoin.

But to your larger, exaggerated ("everyone"), question: It'll make it easier to include bitcoin as a part of larger trades when it can be bought and sold and used as collateral like a regular stock. It'll be another tool used by professional traders. I don't think it'll be a world-changing event, and like you said, it's probably not going to increase aggregate demand as trading desks will shift out of complicated ownership structures to use the ETF instead.
Being able to buy it in a run-of-the-mill tax advantaged account would be a very big deal.

It's possible to do it now, but not easy.
The main thing I think is that if there is an ETF then this could be the green light for big MMs to open/re-open crypto MM activities, on its own term and as part of being APs for the ETFs. Wintermute/Portofino/etc are good but if the big guys come in liquidity/order book depth will probably get way better.

ETF's are so pervasive because they're so easy. VIX futures can be held, but people still buy VIXY and similar products. You can buy literal physical gold, but people still buy GLD et al.

And it hardly matters that wrapping it in an ETF makes it potentially really weird (like how GLD and other gold ETFs are only barely nominally like holding gold, and VIX ETFs often hold cash-settled futures based on the value of a formula that is based on another formula that takes in various parameters of the prices and durations of options which themselves are priced based on the price movements of various equity securities and .........). The depths of weirdness have already been pretty well-explored by existing weird ETFs. A bitcoin ETF wouldn't even be particularly notable levels of weird, imo.

So, just the fact that it makes it really easy is typically a big boon to people getting exposure to whatever financial force the ETF holds.

It was a different time. Microsoft had a different strategy towards languages not developed by Microsoft. Similar to how there also used to be JScript, but now Node.js is basically a Microsoft's pet project.

>Of course people holding BTC will like that.

Given that the original Whitepaper is titled: "A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" and a news article describing the 2009 bank bailout is literally baked into the very first block people celebrating slow morphing of Bitcoin into a traditional finance product is at least a little bit funny. Instead of a hedge crypto is now just effectively a correlate of the financial markets.

What kind of legislation? There's a whole lot of existing law that applies in that domain (both statute and Constitutional case law), but if you think we need different laws, it probably helps to at least present the general shape of the law you want rather than just that it should in some way touch impact government using private platforms for announcements.
