FLOC is being introduced now in advance of privacy features coming in chrome (removal of third party cookie and privacy budget) which apparently will hurt ad revenue. FLOC is supposed to help targeting without exposing user data.

They claim they'll use it in the following: https://www.stellar.org/foundation/mandate?locale=en (and they are a nonprofit so I assume they can't just sell it all).
I can't believe anyone seriously thinks this.
It's bad if you're in a position of power and you hit on someone under your influence - doesn't matter if they would reciprocate or not.
Here's a current visualization of how many participants there are: https://stellarbeat.io/
It is also insanely cheap (like $1... and even that is just "held" in the account and can be released later) to "mint" a new coin and thus is practically perfect for NFTs.
It's seen as sort of a joke in the crypto world by those who are only trying to make a buck (price of XLM, used for paying transaction fees, is relatively stable compared to others) but I think it's one of the few cryptos out there that has a chance of making a real difference in the world long term.
The grants start out small (I think the first one was $3k) -- but then once you spend 75% of them you can apply for the next round, which for me they gave me $17k out of a possible $30k based on previous usage. After I spent around $15k for that over the next year I applied again and got $100k.
Just one note though that I already had an MVP that I was running on GCP at the time I applied (but I was within the $300 free credits that I started with so I didn't pay out of pocket).
It's going to be hard to position yourself as the Peloton for Rowing when Peloton actually has a Peloton for Rowing.

And probably a dozen other ID solutions out there that require you to be logged in and thus have some first party data to match you with.
Honestly I'm not sure what the value proposition is for the user if it's not required to log in, so who knows what the uptake will be.
Similar to a TODO comment... it just never got done.
But you said that the media was misrepresenting cases of this as peaceful protests and I said I haven't seen anything like that.
The links you posted are mostly them being called rioters (and one super-cut of something that's not a protest or a riot).
Could you show me some instances of this? I've heard this repeated but I haven't actually seen it myself.
You protect against someone else abusing it on other users.
I don't know the _eventual_ direction of Kubeflow/TFX -- but in our TFX pipelines you still get to choose where it runs. From the docs:
> Apache Beam is an open source, unified model for defining both batch and streaming data-parallel processing pipelines. TFX uses Apache Beam to implement data-parallel pipelines. The pipeline is then executed by one of Beam's supported distributed processing back-ends, which include Apache Flink, Apache Spark, Google Cloud Dataflow, and others.
You can also choose to run it on Kubeflow itself.
And where did you get that TFX has been replaced by this? You can run Kubeflow pipelines (including those created by TFX) on this.
I believe you'd use Workers (WebWorkers?) https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Workers to actually do it off the main thread entirely inside JS.
The powers that be at my work decided that “sprint predictability” is the most important metric here. This means that if we pull in stuff near the end of the sprint but don’t finish, predictability goes down. Thus, we are encouraged to not take on extra work if we don’t expect to finish. What this means in reality is that we start working on it without pulling it into the sprint and then get a head start for next sprint.
What’s your take on that?
