How is your home network not a production system ? If your router crashes, won't the other inhabitants of your home be annoyed they can't use the internet or watch TV ?

re "strange to choose 3g": as some operators even phase out 3G completely, we can expect 3G base stations to be available cheaper than ever. That's only one of the reasons: Osmocom started out from the security analysis perspective; having 3G openly available is a benefit to the general public as well as small business in various ways.

(The opening lines of https://osmocom.org/news/30: "3G is dead, you may think. From the perspective of large scale operators, that may well be the case, but this is precisely the reason why Open Source support for 3G is becoming increasingly interesting: when the focus for earning money shifts towards LTE infrastructure, the threshold for setting up 3G networks is becoming easier to surpass for everyone else.")

What I'm saying is that we _waste_ those resources on trivial tasks very casually. Besides, the article talks about building a "router", not a "home server" or a "multipurpose hack box with routing capabilities". It's like taking $10 mil to make a bicycle "to commute".

The results page would be much improved if instead of presenting a single point in each scale labelled "You" it gave an indication of how much uncertainty there is in its measurements (answer: a whole lot).

It also seems to conflate some things that, in my brain at least, aren't at all the same. E.g., it looks as if it combines "prefer to kill criminals rather than non-criminals" and "prefer to kill people who are crossing where the light is red over people who have legal right of way", which are quite different. And it lumps a bunch of things together under "social value preference", which I suspect makes assumptions about how users view "executives" that may not be reliable in every case.

I find it interesting how many of the comments here take it that the goal is to promote the idea that (e.g.) athletes matter more than fat people, or that rich people matter more than poor people. Rather, the point seems to be to investigate what preferences people actually express.
Any single person's preferences are measured incredibly unreliably, as many people have remarked on in their own cases. But in the aggregate I think they're getting some useful information.
Sufficient is well enough, though.

Ha, indeed. Just thought of another - even lower tech - a printed list of all stops, visible to passengers on the bus, then clear signage for each stop. If the bus stops every stop by default, then this is simpler, if not then the passenger needs to be able to see this on the approach, with another time to signal that they want to get off. Can this get even lower tech?
By that definition, there are almost no production systems in real life. Because what you really, really need is air, warmth and water. Anything else is disposable, a convenience. So what if the internet access breaks - just plug in an old router that's been gathering dust as a temporary measure while you fix the "project" one.

Exascale – A Race to the Future of HPC
Seriously?!

The wifi my partner and childs kit is connected to = VLANd off, goes straight out through a DMZ via its own interface.

The stuff i'm testing doesn't touch this and I can do what I like through those interfaces without affecting their stuff. Unlike the ISP supplied router if something crashes, I can restart the service rather than pull the power. It doesn't crash anyway, unlike the ISP kit which is temperamental at best.

ISP routers already have wifi. Shouldn't the wifi be separate, as rebooting the router will bring it down otherwise? Where do you draw the line?

> I get the feeling that most math-involving Wikipedia pages are simply compound regurgitations of various textbooks.

You are absolutely right, because writing quality original work takes effort, and writing quality original maths work takes 100x more effort.

> This is kind of a cop-out

Call it whatever you want, but the fact remains that some subjects are more complex than others. Complex matters take more effort to write about, and there's fewer people qualified to write about them. When these two factors come together, you see regurgitated stuff. If you think that everything is equally simple if you explain it the right way, you're sorely mistaken about the nature of reality.

All this reminds me that I shouldn't be spending my own effort on HN :D

Comparing gzip, brotli and zstd
The article explicitly addresses this question and presents very compelling evidence that the video cameras affect police behavior more so than civilian behavior.

Against all expectations, there was no significant difference in complaints between officers wearing cameras that week and those going without.

Strange, right? It seems logical to expect that when the camera was actually present, it would act, as intended, as an impartial witness, cooling heads on both sides of an encounter. But complaints dropped even when officers weren’t using the cameras.

“It may be that, by repeated exposure to the surveillance of the cameras, officers changed their reactive behaviour on the streets — changes that proved more effective and so stuck,” explained the study’s lead author, Barak Ariel, in a Cambridge news release. “With a complaints reduction of nearly 100 percent across the board, we find it difficult to consider alternatives, to be honest.”

The researchers dub this effect “contagious accountability” — learning to do the right thing even when no one is watching.

I think the main issue here is not so much in choosing between including every prerequisite in every page or not, but in adding a meta-level of information that allows people to consume the prerequisites more easily.

When you open a Wikipedia article about a complex subject, it's expected that you're going to do a lot of background reading.

The problem is that you start surfing Wikipedia with a BFS/DFS approach, when it would be a lot more efficient if the articles were organized more systematically to lead to a gradual understanding of the subject.

There was a recent The Moth: Radio Hour [1] where an emergency room physician talked about dealing with death in the ER. I was struck by the deliberate decision to be blunt about what had happened. She specifically says that she cannot mince words and say that the patient "departed" or "moved on" because inevitably the concerned family and friends will assume that their loved one has been moved to another hospital or something.

This is not to argue your point of preference. It's just something that changed my perspective recently, and it may be interesting.

I've worked on several projects that had <insert framework> for no real reason other than the dev wanted to learn it. There is a threshold where it makes sense to use React or similar - but that threshold is being set way, way too low.

"Because they are human beings" is a naive answer.

My parents have worked 45 years as teachers in Romania, and now they get the equivalent of 300$ monthly combined in pension money. Romania is also not such a cheap country as you'd think.

Now, seeing as how even non-refugee migrants from typical holiday countries in North Africa get lots more money than that per month in the German welfare system, we have two options for thinking about the situation:

1) Conclude that my parents are not human beings, so it is right that they should receive less money than the migrants in richer countries

2) My parents should also be entitled to the same money, and Europe should feel responsible for them, too

Which one do you pick?

I laugh when people doing web work say native is the horror show, the last bit of "churn" I had to deal with was figuring out if JavaFx would be the new Swing, and that pretty much sorted itself out...

After a few years with a framework, for all it's worts, you know it inside and out, limitations and all, and you can work around them. For web stuff it feels like everyone excuses having a million and one solutions by shrugging it off and saying "figure out your problem then find what works for those problems". The issue being there are N frameworks for my problem and I only know N/2 of them well enough to even start evaluating if they solve it, and if there are limitations a new feature comes up against, I'm back to square one in searching for another little tool for this new requirement.

There's something freeing about only having a few solid tools at your disposal, vs a million smaller ones with divided mindshare, even if it can be limiting.

I have known Pieter since around 2002. We didn't meet or talk that often, but usually we would have a fun few hours every FOSDEM. On one of those occasions we defined "our" religion, stallmanism.com Pieter transferred the site and domain to me a few days ago.

In the past few months I have been almost obsessed with consuming everything he wrote and published. It is exactly my way of thinking. Of questioning reality and turning it upside down so it works even better.

I will miss him. And I will continue to learn from him. We all knew this was going to happen, he was most transparent in keeping us informed about it. So I am sad, yes. But I am also immensely grateful and positive.

Pieter, it was an honour and a privilege to have shared time with you. Peace for you.
If I were going to die, I'd feel very sad but not because of me nor because of my wife or friends. They are adults and they must deal with this.

True and the German government was very "wise" to auction every last arfcn of their spectrum so no one will attempt to do teaching or R&D in Germany.

But not every country tried that hard, e.g. in the Netherlands one can broadcast with low power (e.g. have your own indoor/campus wide network) or in the US spectrum can be licensed for smaller regions.

Functioning can mean a lot of things. A security researcher trying to downgrade a device from 4G to 3G and then to 2G will be quite happy with a single eNodeB/nodeB/BTS set-up and is glad about low output power. A company to provide coverage on their campus can be quite happy too.
