It's a murder mystery if they do it right: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theguardian.com%2Fus...

... then help fix it. I'm just hearing a lot of complaints about a feature-rich image editor that a small number of people have put YEARS OF UNPAID WORK into, so that you can have a free alternative to the expensive commercial option. It's a long way from perfect. You can go and buy Photoshop if you prefer. But at least show a little gratitude.

Methinks Betteridge's Law of Headlines applies.

https://whythefuckwasibreached...

It's not the language that's the problem, it's the developers. You can write fast efficient code in Java, JavaScript or pretty much any language really.

Unfortunately though most working developers today think that being a good developer means being familiar all the esoteric features of abominably heavyweight frameworks such as Spring. They don't think about clock cycles, stack depth, the complexity of the object graphs they are creating, or any of the stuff that developers from the last century had to care about.

The death of Moore's law may be a good thing in the longer term. It means we will have to start caring about the kind of code we're writing again.

First Betteridge - ... Damn.

Do you know how many hours I've lost to that game?

It allows for the possibility of digital transactions in NZD between private citizens without any intermediary. (Such as a bank.) Right now that is only possible with physical cash.
You would probably lose the untraceability of cash transactions.
The open question is how useful that is to the private citizen.

I read the whitepaper. Most private money is simply your bank balance with a retail bank. But the definition of private money is any money that isn't central bank money. Central bank money is money issued by the Reserve Bank of NZ, otherwise known as cash. Stablecoins will also count as private money.

You would also be removing any speech.

I'm calling this a dupe. I know it's a different instance of this behaviour, but in all significant respects it's exactly the same.

... today.

I'm wondering if this is more of a technology hack than an attempt at legal protection. Putting copyrighted music into someone's video is going to cause algorithms on social media platforms to automatically suppress such uploads.

I don't know how this would work out if it ever went to court, but it adds technological friction to the publication of any such content.

I have a certain amount of sympathy for the cop here too, if Devermont actually was filming and publishing email addresses or phone numbers of one of his colleagues that might otherwise be expected to be kept private. I'm extrapolating a bit here - what exactly was, "work contact information?"
