This scares me, I don't want to be having these dreams in my 60s, do you know if there any kind of therapy? this is a bit like a mini PTSD

Well, I grew up in the 80s and I do like Celeste quite a bit.

This blew my mind.

Your emacs' site has been very helpful. Thanks.

Nope and nope. On the contrary.

That is a bit too fast for me. I am surprised your brain can process at such high speed. I guess it is a matter of practice.

Great insight, it is monotonous but it really helps to be in the flow for a few hours of productive work.

Seriously, this reminds me of a question I have always being afraid to ask due to morality reasons. Was there any chance for the 911 jumpers to survive in any way, no matter how minimal?

Getty Images is the same old crony capitalism at its worse. Sad day for the Internet. RIP.

I am amazed by the level's of stupidity crypto has gotten to. Time for the regulators to crash the party.

That assumes that someone is willing to accept Bitcoins as a payment.

Viscose is impressive, but emacs is a lisp machine.

Having been educated 'continentally', I am surprised that Rand is taken seriously as a filosopher.

An NFT opportunity for the scammers out there?

I see a parallel with the way covid was initially publicized: as a chinese virus.

Coming from Python, I always wondered why this was not the default behavior.

It is bullshit all the way down to such details.

Great idea, but very difficult implementation. A few random points:

- Latin America countries share the same language, mostly the same problems, but their banking systems operate in completely different ways; the only thing they have in common is that they are all financial oligopolies. You have to manage money through them in their local currencies, that is, somehow you need their blessing to operate.

- The formal sector probably doesn't need these services, they probably have traditional systems in place. However, the informal sector (which is up to 75% of all the Small Businesses in some countries) surely are in need of such services. But then you may be operating in a gray area between legality and illegality since in a way you are facilitating financial operations to non-registered businesses. You may need to consult lawyers in each country, again, each country has different financial rules and laws.-

- Corruption. Many crooks in key political positions don't want the status quo to be altered. Do not underestimate their power.

- Most Small Businesses perform their daily operations with cash, and they feel safer using cash instead of plastic. You need to gain their trust in order to move them toward a digital economy.

Multiple forms, unlike most of asia these are multicultural societies, The Losers are distributed across these multiple cultural spheres and they will react in different ways.

Whenever I see this kind of news pulling the attention of a significant number of smart people I ask what terrible reality we don't want to see or try to escape by injecting us UFO heroin.

This is why I like GPL.

I have a similar setup. It all works perfectly until the disk starts filling up. At 95% performance goes down the cliff. You have to clean the disk and defrag. Running 4yo version, I would guess things might have improved since.

Excelente point. What is Russia nowadays? And how can we compare those 40 years with these 40 years unfolding.

Thank you.

Hey Chris, thanks for the great talks on math and ML with Julia. I highly recommend them to anyone interested in learning how to spell mathematical model in julia or, in general, in any language.

if you really did, then you didn't understand it.

Great analogy.

I have used it to visualize dependency trees for several thousand nodes and show my team loops and broken deps. For this kind of situations, a picture is better than a thousand lines of code.

- Hegel. I haven't found any resource that can explain it clearly.
