That is an interesting point.

I suppose a client could act more like a monitor and download chunks of the log at a time, thereby hiding which site in the chunk they were interested in. That wouldn't be hugely efficient though.

Being a pessimist about school, as it wasn't fun for me or fit my learning style, I found myself thinking that we were going to only make AI as stupid as we are with this method.

On the real side, however, I think anyway in which we can keep people and their information safe in the face of progress are paths we should absolutely take.

Yes. Space radiation doesn't kill 1% of gopros, it kills 99% of them (both numbers made up, but you get the point). Then there's the power budget. A watt is cheap here, not so cheap on Mars, so even what counts as "low power" on the surface of earth isn't cheap on Mars. And of course, n-item arrays need correspondingly more power than single items.

(I realise it's not your main point, but broadcasting 60fps video across the solar system sounds like it might need a LOT of power, no matter of sensitive the receiver is.)

It was our moral obligation to go to war with Saddam, ask for an outline of details as I and as I recall Steve saw them if you want, but the moral case starts with "you broke it, you fix it" ... and come to think of it we followed the same pattern with Vietnam, except for our unprovoked breaking of that country vs. our responding to Saddam's invasion of Kuwait. And that war was very successful and improved things in general, if for no other reasons than removing Saddam from power and blowing open the Khan nuclear production network (for which we rewarded Qaddafi with death...).

It was also our moral obligation to properly handle the aftermath, after we'd finished completely breaking the country, and that's where the horrible failures started, with e.g. the appointment of the clueless proconsul Paul Bremer (although killing zillions of jihadists on ground of our choosing was one good result).

For what it is worth - apart from road signs and speeds - I've not really seen imperial measurements used for much any more in the UK.

I would be amazed (and saddened) if someone had started a new, large-scale, serious, rigorous, engineering project in the past couple of decades (i.e. since the 90s) and used imperial units (I am sure there are lots of small-scale/personal/etc stuff done in imperial though - I dont count interplanetary space flight as small-scale!)

Imperial is pretty much dead in the UK (or maybe just London?) apart from roads and conversational/casual usage where its often easier to say the imperial equivalent than the metric (e.g. "pint of beer" is easier than saying "568 millilitres of beer", "about a foot" is easier than saying "about 30 centimetres" just because of fewer syllables if nothing else).

Electronics to be used in space must be hardened against:

- radiation: electrons, protons, heavy ions (MOSFETs are very vulnerable)

- cold temperatures (up to -235 degree celsius)

- high temperatures (up to +250 celsius, and there's no air-cooling in space)

The performance of electronics vary greatly depending on radiation amount and type, and temperature. You can absolutely not throw consumer electronics (GoPro) in deep space and expect it to function.
Introduction of Aerospace and Aeronautical Engineering Universities
somewhat arbitrarily choosing your comment to reply to, I noticed you're picking on the idea of buying a house being an investment, rather than a simple alternative to rent.

For me, the motivation for owning a house isn't so much an investment as it is that renting and owning cost virtually the same, given that one has the means to get on the ladder.

I bought my first house (I'm 30) in north Germany about 18 months ago, we paid 515k and it was recently valued at 700k due to large improvements to the area, and the renovation of an old hospital site which is now luxury flats and houses, the mortgage (2.5% fixed-for-25-years) costs us about the same as renting a flat (100sqm) in the city, and we now have 200sqm of living space and 250 of garden to ourselves, we also now own, rather than rent a parking space (which always annoyed me more than it perhaps should have)

The capital gains tax is an interesting point, given the rent we were previously paying at 1800/month (warm == includes some bills) we'd have been over 20k/year out of pocket just by maintaining the renting status-quo. My wife and I discussed whether it was the perfect house for us, whether we wanted to take a risk on living 20min north (metro) of the city, rather than 5 minutes to the west, and whether waiting 2/3 years was justifiable, we poured about 70k of our savings into legal fees, ground-tax and the deposit for the property, we figured that sitting on our hands for 2-3 years could cost us essentially the same.

Naturally one can't write-off the convenience of renting and being able to terminate a contract and simply move, but I have almost the same freedom to rent out my house should I choose not to live there anymore, although the rental market for houses ~20 min north of the city will make it tricky to cover the cost, then keeping the house turns into a question of eating the capital gains tax, or paying out of pocket a few hundred euros per month to make the difference. I also don't have to pay €4k for a "Markler" to help me find a flat, and fax me a contract, a rather shameful act that persists in Germany, even if you do all the work yourself, the Marker can still get their commission, legally speaking, they often do deals to prevent you pushing the issue to the courts.

Given the duration of my mortgage, the low (fixed) rate, I can look forward to the last 15 years of my useful working career being rent and mortgage free, which might be a bit too late to build a nest-egg, but it's certainly better than being at the mercy of ever-increasing rental rates in an ever-expanding city. (in my opinion)

I think it might be fair to close by saying that Germans are typically fiscally risk-averse, and huge debt, variable rate mortgages, and the uncertainness about maintenance and insurance might be as big a driver as anything else. There's also the cultural shift away from generational houses (think "Home Alone") where many generations live together longer term, I think this is significant.

My last project was $150/hr, the one before that was $90/hr - both remote.

I don't like this at all. The only value left in WoSign root certificates is in issuing backdated certificates that wouldn't be widely distributed. So basically the only way to extract any money out of their current root keys is to sell rogue certificates for targeted attacks.

> the reason git beat out the competition isn't git's excellent UI or large marketing budget

I'm most inclined to believe that it certainly was git's large marketing budget that got it to where it is today. Not a monetary budget, but its reputational budget: "Written by Linus" so it must be good.
Local food prices are also dependant on the UK being in the EU since the EU provides huge farm subsidies.

UK food prices are already fairly high even tho they are already being subsidised to match cost, many items like milk are subsidised because the supermarkets are paying below cost prices to the farmers.

That said the EU losing the UK as a trading partner won't go well either, Germany will have to find another country to sell stuff too to cover the $50 bln. loss in trade deficit if the UK implodes.
< I grew up watching my parents and grandparents work guaranteed employment in companies that would keep them on for life, treat them well, offer promotions and actually come good with retirement on time and the amount promised. What a world we had in the 70s 80s and 90s.

If you watched that, you enjoyed a phenomenal amount of privilege. That is much more of a marketing pitch about the past than anything that actually existed. In fact, in macro terms (even adjusting for statistical differences) the 2000s were much better for employees than the 70s, 80s and early 90s.

I remember my grandparents being laid off a lot, and the plant moving right before they retired while raiding the pension fund on the way out. I remember the company declaring bankruptcy and not paying their disability obligations so the tax payer had to.

That was during the supposed good years you mention. The coming years are going to yield dramatic changes to what jobs even mean, and at least in the US, we've spent the last 30 years making our society more dependent on people working for a big company not less.

In light of that, it seems prudent to me at least, to give some thought to how we transition whole industries to not need workers.

I don't know these guys. I just want to say kudos for launching a VC fund the way they did:

-Announced in public and on VC website.

-Who you are

-What you look for

-What you offer ($ size and intangibles from partners)

-What track record/prior vintages look like

-How to reach you

Too many VC funds are too opaque or they ask founders to go hunt down a random mutual connection, bother that 3rd person and then circle back to get introduced to the VC.

I like Initialized approach here and wish you a lot of success.

P.S. If nitpicking the website isn't exactly the most impressive looking. Doesn't bother me one bit. KISS. Hope founders look past that too.
My middle school band director told us that the hum of the lights was B-flat, but that would make A=453, which is rather high. My Yamaha flute is A=442, which is pretty common. You can always pull a headjoint out (lowers pitch), but there's a limit to how far in you can push it in.
I don't think that really shows progress.

Patients who'd like to undertake euthanasia and can't would get a DNR order. Medicare isn't spending massive billions on folks with DNRs - it's the folks that won't accept a terminal cancer diagnosis and put grandma through intensive chemo instead of prioritizing quality of life that costs.

>The real question is when will they work on their own kernel not based on linux?

Why would they? They have everything to lose (compatibility) and nothing to gain from leaving the Linux kernel. Look at an arguably even more successful Linux project that tries to reinvent everything: Android. They're still based on Linux, even if they don't want to admit it that much. macOS is still based on BSD Unix. It takes a lot of time and money to write a modern kernel, there's no reason to not just use one of the pre-existing kernels.
Arguably the job market forces people to move.

Lived for a few months within yards of the approach for Pease AFB, New Hampshire... KC-130Qs and F-111s. (Yep, that long ago.) The F-111s were cool sounding, almost a metallic screech of those long thin supersonic engines.

The KCs used water-augmentation (I think) on takeoff with a full fuselage of fuel, and honestly sounded like the sky was made of 100 layers of cotton and someone was tearing them apart with their hands. 2 solid minutes of "hey, they're ripping the sky again" and the water would run out and they'd sound like a normal heavily loaded Boeing chassis again.

That seems exceedingly unlikely. No-one in Europe would even consider using anything other than metric units even for buying their groceries, let alone a critical engineering task.

That said, _if_ there were any US companies involved then perhaps there might have been complications. Many years ago I worked on guidance software for tunnelling machines and we had a US client who insisted that we reprogrammed the entire system for them to work in "centifeet", i.e. 100th of a foot or approx 3mm.

I well remember the chaos and arguments caused by adopting such a ridiculous chimera of a unit, and was struck by how resistant some people are to adopting something as universal and transferrable as SI units.
