Ethereum is powering Wall Street's future. The crypto scene at Cannes shows how far it's come
Ethereum’s institutional adoption is accelerating, with BlackRock, Deutsche Bank, Coinbase, and Kraken all building directly on its rails.

Anybody who's thinking right now whether :ruby: #ruby or #rails might be a good fit:

Riding the rails

I just had to buy a load of T-rails. Those are steel - yes, steel as in "tariff on". Fortunately I seem to have obtained a price that has not yet been raised.
(I recently needed to buy a replacement car and got clobbered by FFOTUS's initial mad-tariff announcement; I am figuring that I ended up paying between $10K and $20k more than I would have pre-FFOTUS going off his meds.)

A project we kicked off in March, have worked on pretty much non-stop and have done loads of interesting new work on, all started to come together today.
Learnt loads; fully containerised dev & prod environment, brand new #rails 8 app, Avo dashboards, headless CMS, AstroJS website, new analytics platform, “novel” Google Docs to CMS ETL process, 3-stage production/staging/trunk AWS acco…

On this day in 1842 Thomas Hufflepink stoked the firebox of his narrow gauge railroad engine and opened the valves to the #gravy pot he intended to power the engine with. The superheated #gravy raced through the engine causing the wheels to spin on the rails.

Can One Safety Loop Guard Them All? Agentic Guard Rails for Federated Computing
We propose Guardian-FC, a novel two-layer framework for privacy preserving federated computing that unifies safety enforcement across diverse privacy preserving mechanisms, including cryptographic back-ends like fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) and multiparty computation (MPC), as well as statistical techniques such as differential privacy (DP). Guardian-FC decouples guard-rails from privacy mechanisms by executing plug-ins (modular computation units), written in a backend-neutral, domain-spe…

I think a tram is coming from behind.

Everything's going completely off the rails now, right?

some chinese folk religion planchette writings say new hells (like with punishments for sins involving reckless driving) or existing hells (such as the "hand-searing hell" (烙手指小地獄) initially used clothes irons to sear sinners' hands, but now modernized their punishment by searing the sinners' hands on iron rails tied with springs) are created as the world changes

First round PI workup on the switch line card is done.
All of the other rails are fine, the only one with any significant issues of concern is 1V0 which I am suspecting might be a nothingburger (test point too close to the DC-DC so the local bypass caps dont have much of an impact).
Gonna solder a probe on to get a measurement at the actual BGA vias and see how noisy the rail is there, then probably put some diff probes on the QSGMII while I've got the thing decabled.

I've repaired the sawmill motor, and now it is once again running perfectly.

@… Makes sense, I’m glad to hear it’s more stable now.
I use the Docker image because I am lazy and because Rails is a bag of cats, which definitely makes upgrades easier, as it’s just swapping out a version number.

So @… announced an upgrade for #ActionText with "No #Trix".

Jorge Manrubia
A huge editor upgrade is in the works for Action Text. No Trix, no House, no Tiptap, no ProseMirror. A drop-in replacement that will take rich text editing to the next level in Rails, and lay a foundation far better than anything we ever had with Trix. We will start using it internally in the new product this week. We’ll test, we’ll polish, and we’ll ship. (Yes, I’m shamelessly teasing here. And yes, I am VERY excited about this one)

Elastic displacements and viscous flows in wedge-shaped geometries with a straight edge: Green's functions for perpendicular forces
Edges are abundant when elastic solids glide in guiding rails or fluids are contained in vessels. We here address induced displacements in elastic solids or small-scale flows in viscous fluids in the vicinity of one such edge. For this purpose, we solve the governing elasticity equations for linearly elastic, potentially compressible solids, as well as the low-Reynolds-number flow equations for incompressible fluids. Technically speaking, we derive the associated Green's functions under confine…
