Позавчера Еврокомиссия приняла закон, который обязывает все компании без исключения использовать USB Type-C, как основной стандарт для зарядного устройства. С осени 2024 года гаджеты в Европе должны уже полностью перейти на новую схему.
Есть косвенный побочный эффект: выпуск устаревших устройств с Micro USB в Европе будет невозможен. Я вот до сих пор (редко, но бывает) наталкиваюсь на новые устройства, которые можно купить в магазине прямо сейчас, и у которых почему-то Micro USB вместо Type-C. Видимо, какие-то очень древние складские залежи.
Но куда важнее воздействие на компанию Apple. Годами в айфонах упорно отказывались делать единый стандарт зарядки. Годами люди вынуждены были заряжать не-Apple устройства одним способом, а Apple другим. Более того: даже на новых iPad уже Type-C, но на iPhone до сих пор Lightning. Чем только это не оправдывалось: скоростью, безопасностью, экосистемой. Но на самом деле оправданий нет.
Цитата из одного старого поста @amima:
«Пол Грэм, инвестор и основатель самого авторитетного стартап-акселератора YCombinator, как-то писал: «Uber is so obviously a good thing that you can measure how corrupt cities are by how hard they try to suppress it». Есть явления, общественная польза которых настолько очевидна и проверена временем, что они сами по себе являются мерилом нормы.»
Одинаковый стандарт зарядки и порта передачи данных — одна из таких вещей. Начиная от уменьшения количества проводов в каждом доме, и заканчивая возможностью стрельнуть провод вообще у любого человека, у которого он есть с собой. Со стороны Apple было очень по-мудачески годами выдумывать оправдания вместо перехода на Type-C. Ну, теперь, если они хотят продолжать торговать в Европе, у них не останется выхода. Ждём на очередной конференции объявление об этом, как о революционном собственном решении.

EVAA Protocol: Temporary Suspension of stTON in Main Pool
#protocol#liquidity
EVAA has temporarily suspended the use of stTON as collateral in its Main Pool due to reduced market liquidity. Existing positions remain unaffected, but users must repay active loans before withdrawing stTON. The measure is temporary and will be lifted once liquidity conditions improve.

🚀 StarkWare Researcher Proposes Complex Bitcoin Transaction Scheme
StarkWare researcher Avihu Mordechai Levy has introduced a Bitcoin transaction scheme that aims to circumvent the need for a protocol change. According to NS3.AI, the proposed method involves solving a pre-broadcast puzzle, which would necessitate approximately 70 trillion attempts. Levy characterized this design as a last-resort solution due to its significant computational demands, large transaction size, and potential relay-policy challenges, all of which could hinder scalability.

Ethereum Rollback Not Feasible, Developer Warns
Ethereum developer Tim Beiko cautions against rolling back the Bybit attack, citing potential widespread disruptions and significant costs exceeding $1.5 billion. This attack does not breach Ethereum protocol rules unlike the 2016 TheDAO incident. Additionally, a Bybit address transferred $48 million to Galaxy Digital and FalconX, acquiring 34,800 ETH shortly before depositing it back into Bybit.

Geyser is a free tool that lets you play Minecraft across different versions by connecting Minecraft Java Edition servers. It works by translating data between the two game versions, enabling cross-platform play on devices like Windows, iOS, Android, and consoles. You can install it as a plugin or standalone, and it supports recent Minecraft versions. This means you can join Java servers even if you only have Bedrock Edition, expanding your multiplayer options without needing a separate Java account if you use the Floodgate plugin. It’s great for seamless crossplay but may have some minor limitations due to game differences[1][2][5].
