Without commenting on this specific situation, you're very naive to think government/regulatory policies are not exploited in systematic ways by rings/gangs. Have a look at cum-ex dividend fraud in Germany, GST refunds on gold in Australia, carousel/missing trader VAT fraud in the EU, ETS carbon credit fraud in the EU, etc. All multi to tens of billion dollar frauds that were systematically exploited by rings/gangs.
Nobody wants to spend it anyway, just hoard or sell it to the next sucker willing to shell more $.

Most humans are not, sure. Some are: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF02000779

Your claim is falsified.

Not all humans reproduce. Yes, there are only two reproductive genders, these do not cover all humans.

There are several strategies to identify gender, as we both (I hope) know, each has its edge cases, none is sufficient.

A laser like focus on sex-as-gamete-production (SAG) is completely adrift from social reality.

Solana Trading Bot for Raydium Liquidity Pool V4
We have developed a Python script that detects newly issued pairs in the Raydium Liquidity Pool V4 (Solana) and performs automated token trading based on user-defined conditions. Here's how it works:

Detection of new pairs as they are listed.
Data collection including token name, symbol, and holder percentages using Python libraries.
Market data retrieval such as price, market cap, liquidity, and more from free APIs like Jupiter and Dexscreener.
Tradeability check based on user-defined conditions (e.g., MCAP over $1B, top 1-40 holders owning < 0.50%, etc.).
Automated trading execution: If the token meets the "tradable" criteria, the bot will automatically buy and then sell after a user-specified time interval, using optimized slippage.
Telegram notifications are sent upon each BUY and SELL, providing all relevant transaction details
Data logging: All trades (both tradable and non-tradable tokens) are recorded in a MySQL database for monitoring.
Tech & Usage
The script works with free APIs from Jupiter, DexScreener, and Helius. To start the bot, once strategies, investment amount (SOL), and Phantom wallet private key are configured, simply run a systemctl command from the terminal.

Source Code & Support
The source code is sold "as-is" along with a guide. Customization and integration support are available as a paid service, depending on the effort required.

Note: The code is written in pure Python with no graphical interface, so we recommend it for users with basic technical knowledge—though modifying parameters and running it is very straightforward.

Misleading.

Under the new rules, bitcoin is no longer considered "currency," though it remains "legal tender."

A contract in itself is not law (though it can be legally enforceable), so how is breaking a contract illegal?
There's nothing rational about any of this. Just political crusading and posturing. Probably to appease trump and musk. Who were probably heavily affected when the stock market shocked last week.

That's heavy editorializing:

El Salvador keeps buying the Bitcoin for its strategic reserve. Businesses and citizens can keep using it.

But for getting an IMF loan, IMF (which, to put it mildly, doesn't like Bitcoin) required the end to Bitcoin legal tender status.

Now the businesses are free to accept it or not instead of being required to accept it. That's all. The government plans to keep buying and using it.

Hmm, sounds more like an IMF requirement than something the government wanted to do. It's not news that the IMF is opposed to the use of Bitcoin as legal tender.

The Detroit Exodus quickened after the racial riots.

There was a police unit enforcing the racial oppression (STRESS).

It was disbanded after a certain event: Southern Airways Flight 49 hijacking.

3 individuals, intimidated by the local Detroit government decided to take matters in their own hands: hijacking a plane (which was common up to the ~70's, since people were allowed to bring their weapons on the plane, back then the reasoning was that its more cost effective to deal with zest-for-life hijackers in the air), but not just hijacking a plane, they threatened to crash it into an Oak Ridge nuclear reactor (or more plausibly the surface storage). After a few back and forths they got a few million, some bullet proof vests and some parachutes. At some point a gun was fired and one of the pilots got hit in the arm. They tried to land in Cuba but were sent back by Fidel Castro (accepting these highjackers was figuratively radioactive), after refuel and some more flying around they tried landing in Cuba again. This time they were allowed to land, but then immediately arrested and went to prison in Cuba for ~7 years, then extradited to the US, sat in prison for another ~7 years.

Shortly after this event: the STRESS police unit was disbanded, US airports finally installed metal detectors and X-ray scanners.

According to interviews the hijackers were willing to die and were serious about the threat to crash the plane and cause release of nuclear materials if their demands were not met.

Were they civil rights activists or violent terrorists?

That is a false dilemma, one can be both at the same time.
This would assume that Hawley knows the difference, or that the court will care after the carelessly written legislation passes. (It's unlikely to ever get close to passing, but as the changes to R&D expenditure rules and the TikTok ban demonstrate, having the legislation make sense and be something everyone agrees upon isn't a requirement for making it the law of the land.

> “Beyond just impacting people downloading models from China, the bill's penalties for the import to or export from China of AI technology and intellectual property could also potentially extend to anyone who publishes AI models or research papers on the open internet knowing they will be downloaded by people in China,” Bankston said. “Researchers are also threatened by the second half of the bill, which would directly outlaw American collaboration with researchers at basically any Chinese university or company—with a fine of up to 100 million dollars for any company that violates the prohibition, amongst other penalties.”
I'm a pessimist sometimes so I can't imagine any real uprising coming out of this. At the end of the day, people in the US have to pay the bills, people live beyond their means whether they know it or not, no one can afford to sacrifice any of their time to a real revolution save for a small minority.

In the 15 years since Bitcoin went viral, has someone proposed a reasonable social, legal and financial protocol for how a society can adopt a novel cryptocurrency without getting stuck in the phase where the cryptocurrency becomes a speculative asset rather than a common medium of exchange? By novel, I mean not using an existing cryptocurrency that is already stuck in the speculative asset phase.

Surely, if a government wants the people in the country to use a novel cryptocurrency, it has a lot of levers of control which some distributed libertarian minded community simply doesn't.

Imagine you have 6,050 bitcoins but they didn't work out for you the way that you hoped. The most reasonable thing to do is to still advertise a bullish position because otherwise you are devaluing your own asset.

There is a strong sentiment around bitcoin in El Salvador and it can make them money; but the experiment around it being a legal tender, well, failed.

When a business bets itself on a bold gamble, with enormous upside but also enormous downside, if the gamble doesn't pay off, the worst thing that happens is that the business goes bankrupt, investors lose some money, employees lose their jobs, and everyone involved eventually moves on.

When a country bets itself on a bold gamble, with enormous upside but also enormous downside, if the gamble doesn't pay off, the worst thing that happens is that the country fails, institutions break down, conflict and violence erupt everywhere, entire populations suffer, and no one has a way out.

Like it or not, the US is going to bet itself on a bold gamble. Bureaucrats, lawmakers, and the courts move too slowly to be able to do anything about it. Indeed, it's already happening. As someone quoted in the OP explains: "Before Congress and the courts can respond, Elon Musk will have rolled up the whole government."
Yes. I'm not a Bitcoin fan, but that title seems a bit misleading.
They haven't had time to do any form of investigation. If they have evidence, it's some existing report from the government already looking into it.

But remember he's saying he wants to shut everything down. He's not planning to look into it, because he just wants to stop all payments of any kind.

I don't think it's extremely debatable.

Obama didn't run on drone strikes, but everything Trump is doing has been a part of the Trumpist or Republican fringe platform for years. The Republicans have wanted to defund and destroy government ever since Grover Norquist said he wanted government to be small enough to drown in a bathtub. Purging academia of DEI and "woke," aggressive anti-immigration policies, tariffs, rule through executive order, none of it is new, all of it is established, boilerplate Trump-era Republican doctrine.

Trump ran on "draining the swamp." This is what "draining the swamp" means.

The only real exception to the norm seems to be Trump's sudden hard-on for invading Greenland and Canada.But even then you can look back at his infamous comments on not wanting immigration from "shithole countries" like Haiti versus places like Norway, or his comments on Mexico sending rapists over the border, and see how he might want to forcibly annex a few million white people to balance out the scales of white replacement or whatever racist paranoid shit goes on in his head.

I don't know. But let's please stop pretending no one who voted for Trump knew who he was or what he was about, or that what's happening now is not in effect what many Trump supporters wanted.

A lot of politics is purely performative. I’d wager over 50% of presidential candidates in any given election know full well they have no chance of securing the nomination but run anyway to build up their profile for a cabinet position or a future run.

Making a noise today about impeachment would be similar. It would play into a strategy for winning the midterms. It’d generate more headlines about the blatant illegality occurring under our noses, it’d be a stick to beat rivals with come election season. No, there would be no hope of it actually resulting in an impeachment, but that would be beside the point.

Instead of serializing data (to disk, not the network), it would be much faster if Rust allowed us to allocate datastructures directly in an mmapped file, and allowed us to read back the data (basically patching the pointers so they become valid if the base address changed).
While it is true that adoption remained relatively low, the reason why they abandoned it is that the IMF made it a condition for the Salvadorian government to be able to receive a 1.4B loan.
If I'm understanding this correctly it sounds functionally similar to the report generating project Standard released a few weeks ago [1].

Right and congrats on all of that. But I need to know the evals to know whether this actually makes sense versus alternatives.
Um these have always happened and will always happen.
I don't see what useful signals are supposed to come out of an interview. If referrals and recruiters aren't an option I'd probably try to skip the interview altogether and go with a long probation period (3-6 months). Or possibly have a short 20 minute free-form interview talking about their last day job and expectations of the new one with a very short list of major red flags ("doesn't want the job", "unable to form sentences") then block candidates who raise them.
Maybe you are, but that's not me, and that's not a ton of people in the comments here (I would say easily more than half) reacting negatively to what Musk and Trump are doing.

You can't, though. It's ossified too much. The constitution was always meant to be a living document, but now it's a sacred text for which new amendments are practically inconceivable.
You are of course conveniently leaving out all the people who were much older. Washington was 44, Jefferson 33, Adams 41, Hancock 39, Franklin 70, and many more. Those were just the top ones I could think of. And a quick click-through on the Wikipedia article shows that people under 30 were the exception, not the rule.

Your post is just a lie. A lie by omission.

That's probably why OP chose a highly editorialized "Tico Times" article as the source for this. What's even funnier is it's a Costa Rican newspaper. So one Central American country publishes an article smearing another Central American country, and then HN sees the bias-confirming headline and tries to glean some economic lesson from it. Classic.

We here in the US don't connect devices to the internet. Everything sits behind a NAT router to "hide" it from the internet. The main reason for this is that we don't have suitable operating systems fit for that purpose. They would have close to reliable as a light switch, something that works for decades without fail, and is easy to replace.

Show me a computer system that can withstand direct exposure to the internet, without maintenance (and without active management), for a year, and I'll be surprised, and reconsider.

So, to get out from behind NAT, an external server is required, which raises all of the security and reliability problems. Plus, someone has to pay to keep those servers up and secure. This requires a subscription fee to be sustainable.
Not really. In the US the apprenticeship programs are pretty guarded. You would be better off saving your money wisely.

I know a bunch of people that voted for Trump because they were worried government overreach had gone too far.
I think a lot of the time there's an implicit clash of classes there.

The people that lived it often can't buy the nicest gear and stuff, or if they did it's because it involved real sacrifice and dedication. Historically, they fucking made it themselves because it wasn't something you even COULD buy if you wanted to. So seeing some rich kid duplicate your drip overnight just because they can rubs people the wrong way. And I kind of get it: it's counterfeit. Its the same disdain people have for anything not made by a real artist but passed off like it is. They show up with all the nicest shit duplicating your real effort and struggle, but not having done the work.

A lot of those poor kids only have that thing in their life and the crowd dedicated to it because their homelife sucks.

Most the skaters I grew up with that were really good were that way because they suffered. They were out skating after-school because there was no family dinner and warm welcome waiting for them at home. We were our own family and support. When a friend of mine handed me down a box of old gear so I could put together a new-to-me board , that saved me months of struggling to come up with the cash to replace a board that got stolen.

And honestly the skaters kids were the most welcoming group I ever saw. They took in all the otherwise rejects of society. But no one likes a poser.
