What would happen if a publicly traded company reported finding a thumb drive purportedly containing a billion dollars of bitcoin that had been mined from 2010 or whatever by an employee but forgotten. But said Bitcoin does not exist. How long would it take for the ruse to be uncovered; would the company be forced to show the SEC that they control the wallet of the bitcoin? Could the subsequent rise in the share price be used to buy the bitcoin, filling the original promise?
Not entirely true. Yes, they were elected in 2007 but they have not allowed the Fatah after that. The last election may have been 2012. So considering the amount of time elapsed I wouldn’t consider them legitimately elected.

I don't think it's really a loophole. For example, the Nazis could not possibly claim that the people they killed in death camps were merely collateral damage.

From a narrow, legalistic perspective Iraq was in material breach of UN Security Council Resolution 1441 in 2003 and so the invasion was justified on that basis. I am not arguing that the invasion was right (or even remotely a good idea), just that it was never firmly established as illegal under any treaty in force at the time. By contrast, there was never even a fig leaf of a legal justification for Russia's invasions of Ukraine in 2014 and 2022.

I guess you missed I was pointing to that they put in a whole bunch of meat in the article about the apparent study and they boil it down to a very simple conclusion of "climate change"?

That's not banal? (im not being flippant - I just thought the conclusion was weak, and didnt feel like I learned much.
Sounds wonderful :)

To extend your analogy, though, investing is a very different competitive game from Chess, because the rewards of "winning" your regional/hyperlocal competition (i.e. small caps) are financially equivalent to "winning" the biggest competitions in the world (betting on interest rate fluctuations, the earnings of any S&P500 company, etc.).

It's much easier to "double" your money in one of those local games, because the competition is weaker, their attention is divided, and their holding periods are brief.

Until you're playing with 10s or 100s of millions USD or have super short holding periods, there's no need to play against 1800 elo players – the pie of "the market" is absolutely massive. The 1800+ players exclusively play in big markets, on the payroll of people with billions and tens of billions of capital to deploy – but if you're not throwing billions around, why bother playing that game?

You might need 10k hours to bet competently on highly-competitive, complicated financial instruments. But I reckon you'd only need ~100-1000 hours of education to do a surprising amount of damage in simpler markets. YMMV.
> the number of concepts to keep in mind while working on your code.

And most importantly, the amount of fragile ad-hoc, potentially abandonned "concepts". I have a very different feeling when I grind hard to learn about physics or maths compared to IT solutions. The latter almost always feel empty and very temporary, which causes fatigue to rise way faster.

Why spend $$ on a high performance air-superiority fighter when you can have one flying truck (F-35) controlling 20 cheap air to air drones? Even if a drone is just a disposable way to draw fire it's still a deal compared to a manned F-22.

This is untrue. You generally can’t if you’re working for a broker dealer but you absolutely can trade for your own account working for a hedge fund. The fund might consider it a conflict of interest but the SEC won’t care.
> I know this sounds crazy, but if spammy results weren't drawing real numbers, they wouldn't be a viable business model in first place.

I would agree... in a competitive marketplace open to new entrants. I don't think we've had that after ~2010.

Defaults or pushed adoption on dominant platforms are powerful.

Look at Chrome adoption once Google started using the homepage to push it.

So nowadays, I would say we can be stuck in a local optimum by virtue of marketing dollars and platform defaults/controls.

Or to put it another way -- if Google delivered half as quality (by some objective metric) search results as a free version of Kagi -- do you honestly think search share (including mobile) would shift? And how long would that take?

For all the redundancies that exist, "cloud" isn't reliable and therefore can't replace the mainframe. Then again, most things don't need mainframe level reliability, which is why Microsoft Teams (and other Microsoft services) is problematic today.
It frustrates me that you think this is a genuine talking point.

If we're talking about powering cars, then even if your power comes from 100% coal, it's still cleaner to drive the EV than gasoline, simply because the coal power plant benefits from the economy of scale. It merely takes longer for the trade-off of the higher carbon footprint of manufacturing an EV to happen. But it does eventually happen.

If we're talking about powering an energy grid, nobody expects them to be charged via consumables. That's just silly. But battery storage is how you make wind/solar energy work without requiring burning consumables as a backup.
Which BSD has its own desktop environment? Which BSD has centralized, discoverable settings? (discoverable meaning I don't have to dig into man pages to figure out what to do). BSD is better but still doesn't go far enough IMO.

FWIW, I have never needed to dig into Windows' help system or Google to figure out how to use Windows Settings or the old Control Panel.

> I was talking about this article specifically, which has zero mentions of third party browser engines.

I mean this article itself doesn't talk about non-webkit browsers but just yesterday Apple said they were allowing them in the same post they talked about how they were going to presenting this screen. These things go almost hand-in-hand. Anyone who said something to the effect of "Yes, they still won't allow non-webkit browsers" would be 100% wrong, even if this article didn't cover it.

> Upon reading the article, did I get it correctly that this is talking solely about the default browser choice?

The answer to this is "Yes" but your next bit:

> I.e., if I understood it right, it still won’t allow non-webkit browsers with their own browser engines.

This part is why I said "No, ..."
even more. there is no difference in the process (as far as how the process works, not time spent waiting) between EB1, EB2, EB3.

Also, calling it a visa is misleading. The Green Card gives you the right to reside here permanently and you don't need any visa once you have it. So it's not a visa, and even if it was a visa it would be the Green Card that would be called out, not the bucket through which you get it.
I had a Palm PDA and have kept using smartphones for productivity apps, calendring, musical, photos as of the beter part of a decade. The fact that it van place and receiver calls really doesnt matter to me, but PDAs dont exist anymore, and so, why not installatie a basic sim?

My 'phone' has been really useful to me so I take it basically always with me, unless I specifically know I don't need it (such as going for a swim). I don't take calls if I don't feel like it, but very few people call me.

Funny, I just got that matchup. I preferred GPT4-Turbo.
It's a haphazard half-baked re-implementation of a lot of mainframe ideas with an extra helping of YAML and more rent extraction schemes. Plus it lets a whole generation think they invented these things (virtualization, containers, orchestration, containerized deployment, dynamic block storage, ingress/egress controllers, terminal aggregators, ...).

Now that people are getting sick of cloud I'm sure we are going to re-invent personal computing now with entirely new terminology and re-implementation of all the original ideas. Just please no YAML.
This was my experience. Teams was slow and functioning badly this morning, but it wasn't until someone else said they were also not seeing images that I realized it wasn't just typical jank. Teams is just not good to use in the first place so it doesn't occur to me to think I should check for outages whenever I have a problem.

Like the parent says, these have all been widely reported on. I think we have to come into this conversation with a base level of the events that are going on before commenting.
China believes in soft power. So I doubt they'd come in guns blazing to rescue Gaza.

However, they have nothing to lose and everything to gain by brokering some kind of peace using their supply chain supremacy.

Meanwhile US looks more and more like a paper tiger because they can't stop Yemen from blockading Israeli shipments and also refusing to do the one thing that would resolve the shipping issues: force Israel to the table for a ceasefire.
Unless every home is completely off the grid, you’re going to need to pay for most or the majority of that transmission and distribution anyway. Peak winter and summer I also would imagine many or most residential deployments aren’t going to cover their own need, unless they’re incredibly over built with massive batteries. In any case, I should check out your Christopher Clack reference.
I think its extremely unlikely that china will go to war with israel. That would be an extremely bloody conflict for almost no benefit to china.

Additionally china's military currently has big corruption problems (e.g. the missle fuel water controversy). I doubt china really wants to put their reputation on the line until they sort that out, especially given what happened to russia in ukraine.

That doesn't strike me as a tradeoff based on a realistic assessment of the likely outcomes. For example, VW issued updates for the 2012 GTI only until 2018. Meanwhile, even if Google or Apple were to stop operating their maps services, you could switch from one to the other, or you could switch to OSM or whoever steps in.

New Facts Point Up Horror of Nazi Siege of Leningrad (1994)
Not exactly. They sent the guy who controls the local judiciary because not doing so would be impossible due to his immense political power. The Israeli judiciary is unique in nominating itself and having given itself the power to cancel any law or demand any changes to laws/policy on any arbitrary basis; since this state of affairs is backed up by a sufficient number of powerful institutions, it is effectively impossible to challenge.

Barak ruling to resupply the enemy (it is widely documented that "humanitarian aid" goes first and foremost to Hamas) in an international court is entirely consistent with his lifelong tendency to gradually reduce Israeli independence and voters' impact on policy and to increase Israeli compliance to the policy of outside parties, first and foremost the US. (Resupplying the enemy was required by the US from the start. It is interesting to see other examples where civilians are prevented by the international community to leave the area of hostilities and instead they are supposed to be provided with resources in this area where the monopoly on the use of force belongs to one of the sides in the conflict.)

While the exact requirements placed on Israel by larger powers are somewhat unique, having highly influential people in the country effectively work in the interest of larger powers is a common condition for smaller powers. In this Barak is similar to many other high-profile people and organizations in many other countries enjoying limited sovereignty at best.
Not enough to make a difference.

There’s a reason Japanese beef is the most expensive in the world.
True if you are cogenerating, but few people do that. Only a miniscule fraction of waste heat from a car engine is required to heat a car.

Tangent but: I've always wondered why home cogeneration never took off. Too bad we don't have gas water heaters and gas furnaces that generate electricity and dump the excess onto the grid and heat with the waste heat.

Even a low-efficiency thermoelectric generator would recover some useful energy that is otherwise kind of wasted.
I concede that an individual's response should also be within some amount of reason in a given context. If your team isn't responding to anything in a reasonable amount of time, that's a serious problem. To me, ticket status and Teams channel questions are way more important than the vast majority of emails or standups. However, in your situation, there's some benefit (mainly to you) to standups.

You're in a tough position, it sounds. You're a lead, yet likely restricted to leading technology and not so much people. I don't know what your leadership style is, but I've noticed some people are treated like bosses for merely acting the part, so that's something to consider.

Also, what I meant to say was that a person should skip standup if it actually benefits their productivity. They should show up to some standups, perhaps most. Hypothetically, standups could be done well, but I don't usually experience this. I don't think people should never show up to team rituals.
Are you allowed to recognize revenue for features that are coming soon?
Source? I see a lot of complaints about issues on the F35 that were fixed years ago. No question its a way over budget project that had a problematic start, but from at least some sources I've seen the program seems to be much better now that its got more operational experience.

This made me chuckle :-) "Let's dip our toes into solving international conflicts with an easy one, like the Israeli / Palestine conflict!"
The level of almost-relavence of this comment is beautiful given the context.
By truth are you referring to scientific articles? I'm not disputing how true or not true scientific articles are. I'm just unclear about what kind of information you were referring to.
I'd venture to say that this locker function being delayed is a good thing. It'll force people to learn how to drive their truck off-road instead of hitting the Locker button, getting themselves stuck even worse, and then blaming Tesla.

yeah i think my favorite books, besides vampire the masquerade, were those old star wars magazines that would have campaigns and short stories and other things in them. What I think a lot of people think I am saying is that I dislike the rules and that isn't really true. I quite enjoy doing things within the rules to push them to their limit. Minmaxing is probably the reason I became so interested in machine learning at some point (see this jupyter notebook I made for 3.5e to max out your critical hit probabilities: https://github.com/mnky9800n/data-analysis-tools/blob/master...). I dunno. I just feel sometimes like I have done all there is to do in dungeons and dragons and other roleplaying games.

Partially correct because Linux is running under a sandbox and all applications within Linux are in that sandbox.

My comment about "school systems and corporations" did sort of imply "managed"; there's not a public school system in the world that would give their students unmanaged Chromebooks. Some private schools might, but the private schools are also more likely to have it tightly controlled and install spyware because of the "threat of cyber-cheating" (I wish I were kidding: https://www.eff.org/wp/school-issued-devices-and-student-pri...).

My apologies on the snark — it’s too late to edit it, but I read your "iDevices" as snark itself, since most of this discussion has been populated by people who have reflexive anti-Apple stances with exactly no nuance on their stances, so I let my frustration get the better of me. Mea maxima culpa.
Then ditch the local connection and go with off-grid solar. These days, a totally off-grid solution is sometimes the cheaper option. Panels are cheap. Batteries are cheap. Interest rates are cheap. And no monthly minimums.

I'm sitting in a house right now, streaming top gear on a 50-inch tv, completely off-grid.
The court didn't even order them to reduce civilian deaths.

They do have to submit a report on their implementation of the orders, but reducing civilian deaths wasn't on the list of things they had to report on.
Show HN: Anki/Duolingo-like app using educational YouTube videos
Hi HN,

I watch A LOT of educational YouTube videos but wasn't forgetting a good chunk of the details because I was only really passively watching. So I made a tool that generates quiz questions/flashcards from YouTube videos, and uses spaced repetition like Anki or Duolingo to keep it in memory.

Let me know if you find it cool/useful (or terrible ) or if you want to know a bit about the details!

Batteries are a required part of the transition to pure renewables. When demand for EVs drops low enough you can bet grid operators will be in line to soak up the cheap batteries.

Further, V2G/H is more than likely to be a thing in the near future further putting the EV batteries to work stabilizing the grid.
Those customers had almost no option. Now the platform still needs to be tested in combat. Bombing runs on terrorist camps do not count.

In which case, I would extend what I wrote to say that providing a written version of your standup in Slack (or whatever) can be a reasonable alternative, as long as actual standup isn't skipped too frequently.
A few:

1. Custom domains per tenant (if relevant). For example, if you are building a platform like shopify where each tenant gets their own domain, this is an interesting challenge. Services like cloudflare for SAAS cost an arm and a leg and they restrict apex domains unless Enterprise plan (read six figure per year). You could build your own using something like Caddy with TLS Termination and auto certificate issuance but it's tricky to build for scale (I played around with a prototype for this so I have some learnings from it)

2. Initial Tenant Provisioning specifically their data. Do you have db per tenant or 1 single db for all tenants ? If SIngle DB for all tenants combined, how will you do data isolation and ensure that one tenant doesn't accidently see/process another tenant's data ? If you use multiple DBs, how do you ensure that a request from a tenant connects to that tenant's db without losing performance ? DB Pooling etc etc.

3. Tenant data management after provisioning. Let's say you have DB per tenant. How will you apply a migration across 100s of DBs effectively, accurately and with speed ? Can you customize one specific tenant if they are like enterprise ? How do you handle their migration now ?

There are some of the most challenging aspects. There are many others of course.
The historical situation was that the file system/file cabinet/library classification was that you had some sort of hierarchy in which the physical object was in one and only one location. And you had to locate it within its unique position in that hierarchy.

Object store on AWS, say, sort of looks like that in that AWS essentially presents it as a filesystem structure by default but that's mostly hiding the actual structure.
