Here's some different resources that might help you tap into the entrepreneurial space community as well as help get you bootstrap, seed funding for your space business:

- The New Space Conference (https://spacefrontier.org/newspace2019/), which alternates between being based in the Bay Area and Seattle. This conference is a great, accessible way to find out what is going on with startup companies attempting to do interesting things in space.

- The NASA Ames Space Portal (https://www.nasa.gov/ames/partnerships/spaceportal) - A group based at NASA Ames field center in Mountain View that pursues public/private partnerships between NASA and the private sector.

- NASA Frontier Development Lab (FDL) (https://frontierdevelopmentlab.org/) - A two month "research sprint" that takes place in the summer time in Mountain View, bridging machine learning and space science & exploration, as well as the public and private sectors.

- NASA SBIR grants (https://sbir.nasa.gov/) - a great program that helps seed small businesses and solo inventors with seed grants for promising entrepreneurial programs that might help NASA and the general space economy

- NASA NSPIRES (https://nspires.nasaprs.com/external/) - NASA portal page to find out calls for contributors, that also have funding, that can help you get plugged into the space community and also get seed funding.

- NASA Centennial Challenges (https://www.nasa.gov/open/centennial-challenges.html) - X-Prize like competitions that will pay out if you meet their guidelines and win in a particular area, like the Regolith Excavation Challenge which has been held several times, where the team who can best move simulated lunar soil in an automated way wins. The last winning team got 500k, for example, which is a nice purse to help bootstrap a space venture.

- NASA Advanced Innovative Concepts (NIAC) (https://www.nasa.gov/directorates/spacetech/niac/index.html) - Award program that funds very far-reaching, innovative space programs. These are always incredibly cool programs; here's the awarded NIAC grants for 2019 for example (https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-invests-in-18-potent...)

- Luxembourg Space Agency (https://space-agency.public.lu/en.html) - Luxembourg is a leader in private, mining oriented operations in space, and acts as an angel and seed investor in many, small early entrepreneurial space startups

My biggest concern is that the key's software is updatable. I would have preferred to have an efuse I could blow to make the keys completely read-only.
> Anyway, I don't see how your criteria can be falsified. If the data were to show 16% 1st dose efficiency, it can be claimed the vaccinated are taking 4-5x risk. But how can you separate that from the 1st dose being 4-5x less efficient than in the trials?

It can't be. This is why you can't really trust case control trials, especially when the participants are likely to behave differently between the groups. This is why, if you have a choice between a CCT and a RCT, you take the RCT data.

And we have a RCT, so...

And the difference between the RCT and CCT is in the direction we'd expect... and the magnitude isn't crazy high, so...

edit: and now you're editing under me. ;)
Besides, you still can pay with real money in most places, you just have to choose the right line at the exit. Not all of them take cash. For us that has no problems, card is so much easier to use but there are a lot of people that can't handle the tech and they should be able to buy things too.

All this is marketed as better for crime prevention, less bank/store robbery. Ofcourse this only pushes the cost on the individual in the end though. If you can't rob the store, you can still find valuables in private houses with much lower security. Or just stop any youth on the street. Chances are they have an expensive phone if nothing else.
Absolutely, however the EU's politicians are playing dumb and claim that they couldn't foresee that mass production could be a problem.

The EU ordered too late and simply not enough. Now they are trying to blame everyone else for their failure.

This is the frustrating circular logic here...someone HAS to pick the potatoes! They don’t just show up magically, and you can’t just extrapolate and say that robots will handle all production of basic resources for an entire massive populace.

Normally, socialist economies get around this problem by some combination of slavery, extremely high taxation, forced labor (I.e. not enough farmers - so I’m going to force you to farm regardless of your desired occupation) and/or starvation. Clearly none of those are ideal.
I totally think we should be teaching logical fallacies and such in schools. Along with basic ethics (as in the various competing schools of thought).

But in fairness to the average person, scammers have to play big numbers games to find suckers and pick weaker targets like elderly because the average person isn't that incapable of critical thinking.
There is an open question into whether the flex in the bottom bracket is recovered microseconds later into forward motion. Not much of the energy that goes into flexing a stiff spring is lost as heat. And could it even be beneficial because it works more naturally with the body of the rider? Sean Kelly rode some of the early "noodly" aluminium frames and if anyone could flex a frame, he could. Didn't seem to slow him down.
Hehe, I, for one, moved to Spain (Costa del Sol) from a high paying location. Working remotely for a US company through a Spanish outsourcing company and getting payed peanuts compared to what I earned back at home, not to speak of US salaries (though my pay here is still 2x average local salary). Heck, although I'm basically living paycheck to paycheck right now, I could not be happier with my decision, life is good here. I'm sure I will be able to find new sources of income over time to compensate for the initial losses. But I could never have found the great climate, nature and relaxed people in many other top paying spots. Can't have everything right away, have patience.
> I'm a recovering terminal junkie. I had a problem.

Maybe you went too far, but I think there's also a widespread problem with people not going far enough. I know smart people who have been working in the industry for over a decade who don't bother learning basic text manipulation tools because they look down on the shell and assume they're going to have to switch text editors every few years anyway. Sublime Text, BBEdit, Atom, VSCode -- you only get two or three years with each one, so there's no point learning more than delete, copy, paste, search/replace in file, jump to file, jump to symbol, and if you're really fancy, search/replace in multiple files.

But you can't get past how much of everything we work on is text, no matter how lofty the abstractions it encodes. Munging text takes an inordinate amount of our time. I have seen senior engineers spend an hour writing and debugging scripts to make changes in a big file that they could have made in minutes by using regex-replace or recording a keyboard macro in their editor. Same with basic sed and awk usage. If they can do it by hand in under ten minutes they'll do it that way; otherwise they'll file a ticket and write a script.

I have seen senior engineers painstaking picking through multi-kB json blobs adding line breaks in strategic places to make them readable. ("I used to use this one web site that reformatted JSON for you, but then it shut down, and I always felt nervous about posting internal data to random web sites anyway.") That's an extreme case, but I've seen it more than once, and it's tragic.

I agree it's hard to know ahead of time where to invest your time. One of the best engineers I ever worked with once told me, "The best thing that ever happened to me was that in undergrad I was working for a professor who had all these crazy awk scripts. I spent a whole semester using awk basically every day, even though I hated it." That impressed me —- this was a guy of very impressive theoretical background and incredible ability to design complex systems that worked in simple, reliable ways, and he was talking to me about awk? But it didn't impress me enough, because it was another five years before it sunk in that over the course of my career I had scrolled past an awful lot of simple one or two line awk solutions (on, e.g., Stack Overflow) to get to the solutions I could comprehend -- which were always much more complicated.

When considering how to spend your time, I don't think you should worry about the pits you might fall into. I think you should look at the positive possibilities, the positive possibilities, and try to achieve them. It's possible to be very productive in the terminal and in your editor or IDE without going down too many rabbit holes.
Thanks for that list, going to buy some of them for my daughter now.
I liked the comment: "I’m a big advocate of remote work culture even if nobody works remote."

That really works: respect people's time even if you are in the shared, no-cube, open office world.
Note that only SHA-1 and RSA must be supported by conforming DNSSEC implementations; see RFC 4034. That's probably why support for other ciphers or hash algorithms is inconsistent at best.
Interesting. It had quite the lean, And close to zero vertical velocity. Then it looks like it accelerated at the last second in an attempt to move sideways back the center of the barge.

I wonder if the top of the rocket was at or very near the center?

Also you can clearly see the landing legs deployed, jeez they look tiny.

I'm surprised they even need to clarify that it is ok to play video games without a license (why on earth would it not be ;p).

I'm also surprised that they require a license for viewing any live internet stream produced by any (even foreign) producer, without having a UK license -even if the actual producer wants to make it freely available!

Paying a third, totally irrelevant entity in order to enjoy the online streaming of a foreign TV channel that doesn't require one, just doesn't make sense.

I happily pay for a TV license because I am happy with the quality of BBC, however if I wasn't watching on-line TV streams from parties that actually benefit from the licensing fees, I would blatantly ignore that law and troll them.
I am a native English speaker and Siri constantly misunderstands me. Siri has become a punchline and certainly does not have the usual Apple Cool Factor.
Agreed.

I'm surprised by the focus on large psychedelic trip doses and placebos in this thread. It's basically two opposing extremes.

I too have observed incredible effects of taking small below-threshold doses of psilocybin, with absolutely no negative effect whatsoever. It's tempting to incorporate half a stem into my regular morning routine like a vitamin.
Sure, it’s the four fired workers that are conspiring with media to defame the just Google, and not the obscenely wealthy tech company with its armies of lawyers, consultants, and paid influence campaigns shaping the narrative. Seems plausible.
Wow, I can picture a commercial for a Dove "beauty bar" and then at the end a white pigeon comes out your butt.

The Public Domain Review (http://publicdomainreview.org/) is probably perfect for you. Covers a wide range of archive.org and Gutenberg books and it's well tagged so you can focus on particular interests.

Reasonable . . . hrm. Hard to say. The surface area of duties and rights associated with an airline ticket in particular and airline travel in general are so vast that some level of clickwrap is unavoidable, not to mention the various laws that cover the industry.

Comparatively, the duties and rights regarding a physical good like a sandwich are fairly simple -- it behaves like most simple physical goods. You buy it, then you can do what you want with it. Airline tickets are unlike this in a variety of ways. Hidden city routing being prohibited would not, I feel, be qualitatively different than many of these other restrictions.

To bring this full circle, is anyone aware of a software oscilloscope for Windows / iOS that you could 'play' the wave file into to render his Quake demo via software?
I have friends and family who are Chinese. Although it is not a universal ttuth, the fact is that many Chinese see the west only as something to be exploited, and do not wish to play by the same rules. This applies to individuals who have come here to work, not just the government or Chinese businessmen. The sentiment is that China was exploited inygr past, and now it is time for payback. One deals with China and Chinese without this backgroud at one's peril.
> There are no boundaries to our "rights".

I propose you test this claim by one of the methods the grandparent suggested. The protest-by-occupying-a-random-person's-house idea seems like a good one to pick.
And this is why self regulation rarely works in for-profit industries.
> It's pretty easy to follow the evidence in most situations, actually.

I'm a physicist who has done work on data analysis in cancer genomics. The depth and complexity of cancer biology is enormous, and "following the evidence" is the work of years.

It's easy to follow superficial arguments about specific experiments. It is very, very difficult to get hold of the ambiguous morass that is the true leading edge, which is so far away from the layperson's event horizon they aren't even aware it exists, and so end up believing that it's not that hard to follow the evidence in most situations.

> rather than examples of him not being an authoritarian

Well can you give me a way to find examples of him "not being" an authoritarian? That very question shows how weak your argument is. That you have to clutch at straws to prove he is an autocrat.

Now let me ask you this: Is Putin an autocrat? You can give countless examples of why he is. Is Xi an autocrat? You can give countless examples of why he is. Is Kim Jong-un an autocrat? You can give countless examples of why he is. From targeted assassinations of opposition leaders to detention/containment/concentration/re-education camps you have every single reason to label them autocratic. Can you give examples of Trump being an autocrat? The literal definition of "autocrat" is "someone who has absolute power". Trump doesn't have absolute power. So how does it make him an autocrat?

There are literally many autocrats in this World you can compare against. Trump is definitely a loud mouth. No doubt about it. And he is crass in the way he speaks. He doesn't have a likeable personality. He is a narcissist.

His entire tenure was literally crying about how media treats him, how many in his own party don't support him (RINOs) and how investigations against him vis-a-vis Russian collusion was based on a hoax. Can you name one autocrat who cried about how powerless he is? Have you seen Putin talk this way? Xi talk this way? What about Hitler? Name one autocrat who comes to your mind who has exhibited this behaviour. You can't. This in no way sounds like an autocrat. An autocrat is never this weak and defeatist.

The first thing an autocrat would do is muscle the media. Media thrived under the Trump regime. Constantly berating and attacking him. If this had happened in China or Russia that media house would be non-existent the very next second with all journalists mysteriously missing. If Jack Ma isn't safe you think journalists would be? No ways. This is autocracy for you.

Heck, Trump ran his entire 2016 campaign on the slogan of "Lock her up". Did he do it? On the contrary, the entire scandal was hushed up and the investigative agencies instead focused on Trump's supposed collusion with Russia and Ukraine. I can bet my right limb no investigative agency will investigate Biden on his ties with Ukraine. Why? Because things are back to how it always was. Trump was just an aberration. History will be kinder to him because right now emotions are high and no one wants to see things without filters.
there’s no guarantee in linux when or if your code will execute. it works well for consumer apps but you can’t use linux eg to pilot an airplane or for life support
I'm surprised there was no mention of the Librarian and the Metaverse, from Snow Crash.
Interesting thought! However, I think in the case of the super rich of earlier times, the amassing of 'stuff' was a sign of material wealth. Hoarding fine linens, brilliant jewels, and the like would've served a different purpose.

I think a parallel between the "middle class" (in quotes as I am unsure that term makes much sense depending on the period) of a time gone by and our era makes more sense. For them, I'd say the issue of stockpiling stuff would've been less problematic. Perhaps a large supply of tools or other utilitarian objects, but beyond that nothing of excess. They didn't have Billy Mays back then to sell them "As Seen On TV" goods.
9. Probably since methane is one of the gases they are attempting to extract.

> Also, regarding DevOps, the tooling around Nix makes it a little brittle for anything event based--rapidly changing configurations on the fly due to network conditions (Consul, Ansible, etc). This is where configuration management is heading, and due to the static nature of Nix, delegating dynamic changes is hard/anti pattern.

Channable uses Consul, Vault, etc. for dynamic configuration and it works with Nix just fine.

You don't have to use static configuration files with Nix. Either fetch dynamic stuff using the Consul, Vault, etc. APIs at runtime or use a tool like vaultenv [1] or similar if you don't want this logic in your application code.

Put those tools in your systemd service before launching your app, and you're good to go.

(NB: I was DevOps teamlead at Channable while a part of this work was being done. Sad that I haven't seen the final picture. I imagine it's lovely compared to what we had before)

Would any of you say it's definitely worth watching, to someone debating whether to spend the 90 min?

Some of the reviews are pretty mixed, saying that the film's message is confused by conspiratorial threads and off-putting journalistic style.

Or, if you're already aware of the problems with industrial fishing, is it a pass/not much of an eye opener and not mandatory watching?

Watching episodes of David Attenborough's Blue Planet might have done more for me already to appreciate the value of sea life than what I imagine is lots of footage of industrial fish markets, processing facilities, etc. But maybe knowing the ugly side is important.
The interesting thing (to me) about the first Dirk Gently book is that it was largely a repurposed Dr Who script - in which version Reg was a retired time lord. Such a fun angle on the story!

I wonder if this is somehow similar to Reformers.
Well, systems programming and apps programming are the domains in question, SP is about implementing the platform and infrastructure. There is no single defining characteristic since languages are used cross purposes, it's a term meant to characterise existing engineering practice. But if you really wanted an example of the least likely SP language, I'd say MATLAB or Prolog could be nominated.

Lisp and Java have been used in SP roles even though people often think of them as apps languages.

Probably most useful is to observe what usage languages see. Eg Go is used for many databases, K8s, gVisor, Docker etc.
You could write something that stashes human tasks in an SQS queue. I guess you could set the visibility timeout to a few hours and have the human work when the item is 'owned'.

To frameworkize it my big concern is that people may want to run many different kinds of tasks. Some of those are true/false or multiple choices that can no-coded but there is something nice about an old-school html server where you can just upload a new file to the server to make a new task that has the UI and all and I don't have to make a new release of a JS front end so users can see the new task.
I've actually contemplated this very idea and think it has merit. What I've found in many applications is that there is a stark distinction between GUI and TUI/CLI that isn't completely necessary... I speculate that there's more room for grey between the two. To be clear many GUIs can be used via keyboard alone, but often times that ability feels bolted on in that you only get things like shortcuts for a button presses whereas many text oriented interfaces offer more actions which are composites or which might not make sense in a visual presentation of the functionality.

Having said that, I think that the inertia of "good enough" is a real danger to the concept. The new user that uses the less efficient GUI aspects of the interface to learn quickly may not have much incentive to go the next step and work the keyboard oriented workflow into their muscle memory. Also, if you realize that issue, there's also the problem that if the keyboard interface were less used, there would be less incentive to fix issues or add features to it as the application changed. Rightfully, it could become less useful because of less attention. I can tell you that in practice I find it fairly uncommon to see staff using the keyboard capabilities insofar as it's already supported by their GUI applications.
If you need a VPN, you'll know it. My advice if you don't need a VPN now is to leave a few smallish subnets in your VPC for NAT'ing if you need to setup a VPN in the future. Then, just white-list the IP's that have access to your bounce boxes. Create a Temp security group and add your home/hotel IP on demand, blow all the rules away regularly. You have essentially have a multi-factor protected white-list for your bounce boxes at this point.

The logic here being you'll only need certain things on the VPN, and you can put them or give access to them through the small subnets. You can simply use NAT to translate a /28, /29, or whatever to an available block in your corp network. This won't work for everyone, but I think for a lot of cases you don't need full access to the VPC via VPN and you'll know pretty early on if this will work for you or not.
