It's offtopic

Bitcoin isn't typically mined with graphics cards. Ethereum was, but is no more. I don't think the price of graphics cards is high due to cryptocurrency anymore

Open hearth

Yup I got a pm2.5 & AQI monitor a couple years ago and was so excited to have a fireplace in my new house, but trying it with the monitor showed me I really shouldn't. I am considering an enclosed fireplace to still be able to use it. I am now wondering if just emitting it into the air (out of the chimney) is acceptable.

EDIT: also it's been shocking to check on it while cooking, our vent hood is mediocre to bad so we end up keeping a door open most of the time we are cooking

So this could potentially be activated by opening up a WhatsApp or RCSChat that received a payload right? I'm turning off auto download for now

> But why are they then legal to sell?

Things are legal until there is a law or ruling that makes them illegal

I agree this points to a somewhat similar level of reach, but you can't actually compare views to viewership

Just in terms of viewership do you have a specific source for saying his audience is comparable?

I am having trouble finding something reasonable. e.g.

6.58M youtube subscribers 80 million television households as subscribers for CNN

Although these numbers are not really comparable

~700k daily watchers for CNN: https://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/here-are-cable-news-ratings-... 800k video views for Russel: https://socialblade.com/youtube/user/russellbrand

Although of course video views != daily watchers (one person can watch multiple ones & that number can be juiced)

It's not running but Fred Becky was known to eat whatever is cheap, frequently fast food.

Really odd to recognize we have a hard problem, but one that's very well specified & maps cleanly onto solvers (e.g. minizinc) and instead say this should be solved with a laundry list of sklearn.

This is one of the magical spaces where there is always a solution, the board space isn't that big & shrinks as you go

Do ISPs block spam? Spam is clearly legal speech

Let's take India as an example:

1) They clearly are able to tolerate being locked out of the internet at least in limited fashion, this is regularly being used to control domestic protests.: https://internetshutdowns.in/

2) If an external party imposes a constraint on a nationalistic government the govt can use this external attack to help bind their country together.

Blocking a country due to scam call centers is kind of horrifying collective punishment.

The argument in the article is suggesting that blocking something so bad they will not defend it nor do they even want to look like they are defending it should not be done because of the slippery slope, meanwhile you've leapt straight to partitioning the internet cutting off billions of people.

That's an extremely charitable description of what KiwiFarms is.

What's your list of things to block that are higher up the list?

> AVs will make public transit work a lot better and reduce traffic

Or will reduce use of public transit & make traffic worse because the negative effects of traffic will be less felt & the cost of private transit via an AV will be lower

> Don't think I'll want to try Space Exploration if it's even worse than SeaBlock.

I would really recommend SE above SeaBlock, IMO SeaBlock feels like it throws away almost all of the recipies you know & doesn't give you much new to reward you, I felt like it was more like some random fanfic. Where as SE felt like it was a poorly edited directors cut of the original movie. There's way too much & it's audience is really the people that wanted a 4h movie with 6 different subplots. Also lacking the polish of the original, but still very much in the spirit.

Angel+Bob & SeaBlock just seem masochistic to me. I have had the most fun with SE + K2.

I haven't tried pyanodon because it doesn't seem like it was made to be played as a game but rather shown off as a testimate to how far you can take things

Yes, but we need to change the rules to get that. IMO a wealth tax would be difficult to avoid.

So what mechanism do you think will make them change?

> On February 13, Musk expressed concern over the fact that his tweet about Super Bowl LVII had garnered fewer impressions than U.S. President Joe Biden's. Summoning another meeting with engineers, Musk ordered an 80-person team to address the perceived issue, under penalty of being fired. As a result, engineers altered Twitter's algorithm to boost Musk's tweets by a factor of 1000

> By December 17, Twitter was blocking some links to Mastodon as being "potentially harmful" or "malware".

Other top contenders

After using vim for more than a decade and slowly acquiring my personal config I switched to lazyvim. No regrets.

Also for simple chores like mass converting your config from vimscript to lua I'd really recommend bing chat, an LLM with the docs loaded works wonders on it, getting all my stuff ported and lazyvim set up took less than an hour IIRC

> and not other "news" sources

I mean I really enjoyed this piece too, but it's not really news. HN really shouldn't be relied upon as a singular news source. There's plenty of things you should know that aren't the intellect candy that HN promotes

Initial release was 2001

What jurisdiction are you talking about?

> Even if your sending end is regulated, at the other end, there has to be a regulated bank.

Are you referring to some specific regulation here?

> Hearing "no legitimate use case" arguments is awfully annoying when you get objective use from the thing being criticized.

What part of the article or Molly White's coverage are you referring to?

I really don't see any reason why someone working in cryptocurrency, but clear eyed about the possibility of down sides would "cross swords with Molly". She is an incredible source, as far as I can tell the *best* at finding and highlighting what's going wrong. That's incredibly valuable.

rekt.news is also quite good, but skewed towards less reporting but more in depth.

IMO Molly should be getting public good funding from the ETH ecosystem for being such a good & reliable source, regardless of if there's a difference in belief of whether crypto is eventually worth it, if you want to build for the long term you must know what is going wrong.

The only case where I don't use vim is jvm based languages, so many of which coevolved with ides I think they're pretty painful to use without.

> what, to you, would qualify as being sufficiently new that it doesn’t have?

I don't understand the question, like what's a game play mechanic that it doesn't have?

I don't think it had any new mechanics or concepts, but it def felt new. Do you feel like there were new mechanics or concepts?
