The submitter is promoting their site, so this shouldn’t have been vouched for. I agree with nkurz's assessment that the system is working as designed.

Also, after it was vouched for, the submitter posted or requested comments from sockpuppet accounts – just like they’ve done in the past. The fake accounts and comments probably justify banning the domain.

And to wanshao: this isn’t the place to try to promote your stuff, let alone with fake comments. Read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html . The platform manipulation that worked for you the last time will not work again.
Sure, but again the issue is not the behavior of the input systems. It would be near impossible to design a system as you describe. Overriding human behavior is especially difficult, especially a decision of when to allow accelerator input or not.
TFA describes trouble with the included GUI front-end, resorting to installing a different one after manually updating pacman in the terminal.

Where is the best place to stake BOME
Hi All

I created this website to gather and compare staking rates across exchanges but found only 2 for BOME (Book of MEME)

Do you have others I could list?

Thanks
Booting off USB sticks is still done all the time and it's (almost) literally the same thing. Doing it in combination with encrypted persistence support as available in Debian for example can be really nice.
> wouldn’t you have a good case with your exchange to get them kicked out?

Would you know who is doing the pinging? The cloud provider would know what account was pinging, but somebody doing this as a trading tactic would have the resources to churn through aws accounts as quickly as they are banned.
That reminded me of a case where an employee was recording their coworker sleeping through the night shift, and it was the employee recording that got into trouble because recording a video (or audio) is against the rules. Nothing happened to the employee sleeping through the night shift. Crazy. What to even do in such cases, really? The recording was just proof or evidence, otherwise it would have been one employee's words against the other.
Maybe referring to safety disadvantages was unfair then, thx.

I just had the Cybertruck Finger 'Guillotine' in mind.
And the cases of things slipping under the accelerator pedal, blocking it and causing safety issues.

Oh boy, this sent me down a memory lane. I remember arguing long and hard with my math teacher in elementary school that "two times as massive" and "two times more massive than" are not the same thing, but she did not agree. That's the point where I learned that the grownup world is weird and sometimes it's easier to just smile and nod.
Thank you for sharing this! It is sort of a vulnerable thing to write, because it reveals the shapes and bounds of my own ignorance, and the path I took to learning. I am really grateful to hear that you appreciated the approach.
This is likely a scheme to get users to spend more over time. The first payment is the hardest to get, with the highest barrier. Once they have that, they can start charging for all kinds of stuff and people will be less resistant to it.
I shouldn't even give you a comment. But I would just like to point out that the tradesmen working on the building are primarily danes, and if not every single one of them are europeans.
Largest "stellar" black hole in Milky Way. Not the "largest black hole" as some media are reporting it in their title.

The largest black hole in Milky Way is million times more massive than our sun. Falls in super massive category.
If you want to debate names, I like "fusion collectors" instead of solar.
That takes me back. I remember Shattered Horizon being a flagship DirectX 11 title, and looking at the graphics, it still holds up today.

Transform LLMs into real-world operations
Hi, i am Onur Ulusoy, a Python enthusiast whose experience spans over 5 years with a special focus on Python Serialization over the past 2 years.

In start we just working on fastest Deployment system in python (<1) but after a pivot in Upsonic is our attempt to the function hub for data teams and machine learning groups by leveraging auto-documentation and auto-dependency. We have designed it to incorporate embedded profiling and offer seamless on-premises installation using Docker.

In the course of its development, we recognized an opportunity to extend the functionalities of our function hub to an LLM agent tool hub. We engineered a custom interface release under the name, "Tiger: Neuralink for your AI agents." This interface, licensed under MIT and community focused.

Its transform the thinking of LLM to real world operations. Just like sending a messsage in WhatsApp or reading emails or writing and running python codes and reading documentation of langchain library. For now we have supports for crewAI, LangChain and AutoGen.
> Many people have a sense that they could perform much better, given the right opportunities, the right environment, etc.

Many people have a sense that they are as good as they appear to be, when what gave them the edge over others is just pure luck. And perhaps their persuasive capabilities to make others do the hard work.
Having had a bit of this experience with Gravity Rush, I think a weakness for me is that 6dof games can end up feeling a bit like just pointing at some target and hitting the forward button. Basically, without the constraints of “regular” flight mechanics like having to maintain velocity, avoid stall, etc, the whole thing devolves into endless pointing and 3D circle-strafing.

As an anglophone, I'd say the farmers (for people who are at least metaphorically your neighbours) are acting rather ... boorish.

(this explains the anti-immigration platforms: the farmers, deep in their hearts, know that if they keep on carrying on like this some dark-skinned individual will stuff them in a sack and take them by the slow boat to Spain)

This is exiting to hear. I got Sim Tower running not long ago and was unaware it had many subsequent and handheld versions.

Have you looked at the game Project Highrise? How do you think it compares.

Speaking of maxis, do you think we will ever see SimEarth open sourced?
I believe a vector CRT could be color just like a raster CRT can, using three phosphors and three electron beams (sure, technically that would’ve made the monitor a vector-raster hybrid). That would’ve raised the cost even higher, which I assume was the main reason the system was monochrome. Sure, you couldn’t easily render filled geometry with a vector display, but it wouldn’t have been anywhere near feasible with a raster monitor either given the puny hardware.

>That sure would explain the increase in blaring phones since they became popular with the idiocracy.

Oh, not at all. It's just that there's no in-app volume control, so they depend entirely on the phone's media volume. This is common in most mobile applications, I'd say. So all those people glued to their blaring phones are morons, to put it plainly.
It's a really interesting article!
Nowadays this is the walking simulator genre with hundreds of titles available, but certainly I agree that it took an extremely long time to truly become its own thing.
Neat project !
I completely agree that there should be a way to determine which device is which, and I know my Linux device is fairly reliable at that, even with dongles.

Apple decided that the correct way for them was to use the display unique identifier, which unfortunately for budget displays is not unique.

That is the fundamental problem here.

You are now arguing from the position of someone who is trying to make the system usable under more scenarios, while Apple doesn't care if your 3rd party equipment doesn't work. The child here is the monitor manufacturer, and you should have bought good equipment in the first place.

It's like complaining about their half arsed HiDpi scaling options. If you had bought a monitor that had the correct pixel count for the size of the screen then it wouldn't be an issue in the first place.
This project only supports the 'legacy' C/A variant of the NAVSTAR constellation's signals.

"Best Python Chart Examples" It's a little less accusatory and I think a nicer representation of what it is
Yeah, add me to the list of people who have used the "stop immediately when you're getting noticeably queasy" technique to train my stupid brain to realize that no, it's not actually being poisoned, so it should stop fucking thinking it is and grow the fuck up. ;)

There are still some sorts of games that will make me queasy (games that have a lot of uncontrollable-by-me jumping around (think "leaping ninja fighting games') for instance), but by and large, I've no trouble.

I also found Dramamine to be helpful during the intermediate period where I'd still otherwise get nauseous after a while. I find it continues to be helpful for things like those stupid "leaping ninja fighting games".

$10M in Gold Disguised as Machine Parts Seized from Cargo Plane
This is how the Taiwan exchange used to do matching, and I still think it's the best system I've seen.

I don't think the reason has anything to do with price discovery, it's just because exchanges want to maximise their trading fees. Continuous order book trading leads to more trades and hence more profit for the exchange.
Reaction time to events, be it news, securities movements, etc. If you’re early, you can open positions before large movement has taken place; you can also close those positions precisely when you want.

Sometimes this may be making pennies (x N shares), other times it may be quite substantial.
Wow, these actually impressed me. I've made a few matplotlib charts myself, but typically R/ggplot is significantly nicer and easier.

My takeaway is that matplotlib may be a good alternative for specific cases where you need much more control.
But they are kind of hypocrit, since feature creeps, complex or not, will break compilers via planned obsolescence on 5-10 years cycles.

From a reality point of view this 'backward compatibility' is actually a trojan horse for those feature creeps. This is this very toxic cycle which has to broken.

Compilers have already standard version switches, namely the migration path towards saner C syntax is to leverage such options: -std=c11 will allow syntax from "legacy C below c11", and for instance -std=c25 will start to enforce a simplified and saner C syntax. Adding feature creeps or fixing C syntax will have the same effect on real life code, but in the case of fixing C syntax, it is going to make compiler easier to write and real-life alternatives will spawns, which is is very good and sane thing.
I believe you are correct. My understanding is that the root P key is rotated daily, and needs to be manually uploaded to any military hardware that needs to use it.
Afaik the problem with HiDPI is that fractional scaling sucks, so you have to jump from 1x to 2x to have good quality. For 1080p, that means 4k. So you should end up with the same screen size as you have now, except with four times the pixels, and four times the electricity bill because your hardware needs to render all those extra pixels, and this for some marginal semblance of an improvement in image quality when you look closer at your monitor than you're recommended to if you want to keep your eyesight.
A delay could impact the price. Say you wanted it at $5.00 but it becomes $5.01 by the time your bid comes in you either miss out or pay more.

These traders do it at high frequency. Imagine $0.01 x millions at a time.
This is what I use, too. It's a bit manual as you have to fill out the forms yourself and read the instructions.

But I also like filling out forms.

It may not be for everyone.

Android has handled this fine since approximately forever. It focuses the element, but doesn't necessarily bring up the keyboard until you tap it.

>Putting aside the fact that the App Store is profitable.. why does it have to be?

Why does it have to be profitable? Because if it isn't it goes into debt and eventually shuts down.

>Companies are not required to nickel and dime consumers for every offering, and often time goodwill generates more revenue as a whole than squeezing every penny.

You are absolutely right. This is one of the reasons there are so many mergers; it allows companies to do this with little to no alternative. See cable companies, Ticketmaster, Facebook, Microsoft, etc. You want to squeeze your customer base without having to worry about them going to your competitor? Buy your competitor!

Thank you very much for your thoughtful offer! I won't be able to readily work on side projects after starting my new role next week, and am content to consider this project complete for the time being. However, what you've proposed does sound interesting and fun. I'm going to go ahead and shoot an email to the address listed in your profile.
In any market, a seller or buyer willing to close the transaction quicker is a benefit for the opposing seller or buyer.

Quicker can be on the scale of years to milliseconds, depending on what is being exchanged and amongst whom.
Why even care so much about how other people behave that you need to project your imagination? The Cybertruck has terrible QC, it has nothing to do with "techbros".
Hono still doesn’t support request cancellation well.

So if you’re streaming tokens from an LLM and you cancel the request from the client you’ll be wasting money.

> However, I recently visited Chesil beach in Dorset and there were loads of cuttlefish bones on the beach. Hopefully that means there are loads of cuttlefish living and dying out at sea and I'll tentatively take that as a positive sign.

I routinely walk along the beach at Hengistbury Head (approx 40 miles further east) and have seen cuttlefish bones there for several years running. So perhaps, yes, there is a healthy population off the coast here.

[Edit] Went down a rabbit hole and found [0]. In summary, in the UK, cuttlefish are classified as shellfish in terms of reporting fisheries catches. Catches of shellfish have increased in absolute terms over the last 80 years, from 32k tonnes to 116k tonnes in 2022, and relative to catches of other fish. This is partly due to diversification of the fishing industry, partly because there may be fewer restrictions on shellfish catches.

The Channel is one of the UK hotspots for shellfish catching.

The Marine Conservation Society [1] states that "There is not enough data about cuttlefish in the English channel, but there are indications that populations are too small and fishing pressure is too high. There are no appropriate management measures for this species, despite high landings and high market value. Most cuttlefish are caught by beam trawling in the English Channel. This has the potential to cause damage to the seabed. Trawls can also have high bycatch, potentially of vulnerable species."

Yes they are, and I'd you read the studies given as evidence of safety and efficacy they're almost entirely garbage.
This is an interesting read but I think it leaves outside what kind of trading is the one that would benefit from ULL.

ULL and currently HFT seems to be very useful for market making (buying the ask and selling the bid and profiting from the bid-ask spread making parts of a cent per transaction, done a few million times a day), but there are other uses for HFT. One of them would be to execute very big orders over time to instead of drastically rising the price of the security they can get a better cost basis by performing a set of trades, letting the market absorb the impact and continuing with the order.

The thought of having the market in a cloud provider like AWS scares me! Although I’m sure that AWS might have pitched the idea already. If the markets could be controlled by a private company that could schedule “maintenance” at convenient times for them, that sounds like a recipe for market manipulation bay trillion dollar company. Sounds like something the SEC wouldn’t stand for.
I wouldn't get nauseas when I played Overload in VR, but I definitely developed a cold sweat fast. 30 minute sessions were a push and I'd need to recover after. The developers did all the best practices, but there's something inherently mentally stressful about a 6DoF game in VR while you sit still in a chair.
ouch: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40039138
The HFT is wasteful but isn't bad for human traders, they tend to get better prices. It's bad (sometimes) for huge investors (VHNW individuals, hedge funds, pension funds which I guess represent regular people) that want to make large trades without moving the market but there are also winners here - e.g. if Johnny the day trader buys a stock that Texas Teachers Fund is selling huge batches of, he's better off if HFTs are causing price changes to propagate more quickly.
If you think about it you can never eliminate the advantage of being faster. If you do 5 seconds batches it just means the edges of the batches become the time-sensitive points.

If you want to kill HFT you can do it directly via very very small transaction fees. But guess how popular that is...
If a big exchange goes to the cloud it won’t look like a regular company setting up an aws account and getting a bunch of ec2 instances in us-east-1. They would at least have dedicated racks.

I suspect the provider would end up with a plan where traders can get servers that all have the same network distance from the exchange’s nics (down to the same length of fiber).

Bit different imo. If some scammer sends me my bro's penile pic, I'm gonna delete it and warn him. If the scammer sends me proof he was consuming illegal, immoral CSAM, I'm having a vastly different reaction.

You mean enabling arbitrary code execution from a third party when you can lose billions of people's money in half a second? Also if two people want to make the same trade, who gets it?

Exchanges do provide very limited special conditional execution instructions such as peg orders or stop orders, but it seems like a hard problem for them to support anything more sophisticated and general.
