> Go wild and Tweet every 10 minutes until the FCC vote, change your job on LinkedIn to “Defending Net Neutrality” or say you’re “Married to the Open Internet” on Facebook. Do whatever you can to get everyone’s attention

Sigh. I don't know who made that page but if they thing tweeting every 10 minutes or changing your job desc on LinkedIn will get anyone's attention, yet more everyone's, it's not even wrong. It's just sad.

Moreover, everyone's attention would be completely useless, as everyone, especially everyone who reads random twitter feeds of people that have time for such shenanigans, have absolutely zero input to FCC decisions.

Of course, you can do all this and feel you contributed to a great struggle. Or you might spend this time doing something useful. That's always an option.
Cell phones were banned during my years in high school, and smartphones didn’t even exist until halfway through my final year.

In hindsight, I am thankful for the enforcement as it made for fewer addictive interruptions in attention that I currently deal with in my professional career and personal life at large. Texting under a desk or playing a 2d game on a flip phone was about all you could get away with.

I doubt that my sentiment is very unique here.
Everything is not that bad. Many people lose more than that on the regular stock market (using leverage).

Bitcoin's pretty broken at the moment due to some bad decisions by the development team. All other cryptocurrencies have very low fees.
The pedantic response:

- if 1 BTC were $100 trillion, then it's clearly passed the fundamentals of "being a unit of exchange between commercial entities", since it would be way more than what any form of exchange would ever require.

The truth behind the pedantic answer:

- if it's a store of value, then the "fundamental" value is the amount of fiat that's gone into the system so far. If all the exchanges have roughly $100 in USD deposits, the base value of their bitcoin deposits will be at least $100, roughly.

- If it's as a means of transactions, then the fundamentals are linked to how much transaction volume is going on. For example the flow of USD into BTC and vice-versa. BTC <-> BTC exchanges in that universe probably help to define things as well, as it would be used as an alternative to USD.

The dollars don't come from nowhere, so there's at least some base numbers you can think about. Thinking of it as "USD going into the ecosystem" and "USD going out" is a good proxy for now I think. Obviously very fluid, though.

Absolutely! When I switched from Angular1 to Angular2 (alpha) it was such a pain trying to figure all their new directives.

I just wanted to render a list components or conditionally render something.

When I made the move to React - following the painful Angular2 beta update - I was so relieved to just use Javascript again.

The cryptocurrency bubble is still attracting a lot of attention and people want to buy into something. Bitcoin's pretty broken right now so people are being told to buy litecoin instead.
PG&E also has discounts if you install a device that would turn off your AC in peak times. And of course it also has time-dependent rates (opt in). Yup, no electrical neutrality - electricity at 2am is not same price as electricity at 2pm. And of course prices are usage-dependent - if you're a heavy user, you pay more per kwh.
> Intrinsic value has a well-understood meaning in economics. Bitcoin, like any currency, has no intrinsic value, regardless of these neat features.

I don't think you understand the definition of intrinsic value -- it has nothing to do with being physical:

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/i/intrinsicvalue.asp

Key quote: "The intrinsic value is the actual value of a company or an asset based on an underlying perception of its true value including all aspects of the business, in terms of both tangible and intangible factors.
God your socialist are aweful, everytime that fails you guys point it to the random single event that made that whole thing fail and act as if that were some unqie exception. “... single bone headed reliance...”

I think you should actually use "; and" in place of &&. That said I still wish fish support && and ||, if only for the times when I copy and paste some one-liner off of stack overflow and have to rewrite it.
Supporting this, I don't think protobuf is a good format for storing history files. Backward compatibility is tricky with it - I don't think the history format is going to change all that much, but I think there were changes in history of fish shell like adding time field. If the choice would be on a binary format, I would much, much, much more prefer SQLite for that. Also, B-trees are perfectly fine choice for searching history, as they make prefix searches trivial.

TOML is definitely an interesting choice if a text format is deemed necessary however. Array of tables syntax should be a fine syntax choice for storing history.
No no, you guys, this time it's different, get it now before it's too late...Everyone else is getting rich from this, don't miss out.
Yet I don't think the author has a real takeaway: It's not 138KB.

Looking at DNS requests to those domains, I'm averaging about 30 bytes for the request and 70 bytes for the response.

Significantly larger and more complicated DNS requests returning a ton of DNSSEC records are coming around 4KB with eight separate UDP packets required for the response.

There is no way that 6 DNS queries for simple records and 1 NTP query comes in at 138 KB.

Edit: A dig on the 6 domains listed + a NTP query to one of them, for me, is sitting at less than 1KB total. Where are these numbers coming from?

Take a look at the response sizes in this CloudFlare post - https://blog.cloudflare.com/a-deep-dive-into-dns-packet-size... - they are talking about how they get DNSSEC responses under the 512 byte limit. The "unoptimized" ones are 4KB in response size. Even assuming that these domains turned on an unoptimized DNSSEC setup, that's still 24KB for those and less than 1KB for the NTP portion. The 138KB seems to be completely fabricated.

Edit2: Assuming the author meant 138 bytes as ktta pointed out, 86,400/5 = 17,280 sets of requests per day. That's 2,384,640 bytes, or ~2.3 megabytes a day. On a 31 day month, we're at ~71 megabytes. 1/10th of the amount the author is claiming.

Edit3: Though, 138 bytes seems low to me for 6 DNS queries and 1 NTP. Going by the numbers I get from a dig to the addresses it's closer to 600 bytes, which puts it at around ~309 megabytes per month. Without seeing what types of queries the repeaters are making it's hard for me to have any idea what the real numbers are, but it doesn't seem like the article's numbers add up regardless.
> SAML --- a godawful protocol, but one we did a from-scratch implementation of to avoid crazy deps.

Agree that SAML is godawful (to put it lightly) and also very curious about your from-scratch implementation. I assume that by "crazy deps" you're referring to xmlsec1 (which, disturbingly, nearly every non Java/.NET library uses) Did you implement XML-DSig yourself? (!)

I'd be very interested in comparing notes on test cases. I wrote a SAML testing tool [1][2] inspired by the "On Breaking SAML" paper [3] but the tool is incomplete and essentially abandoned because I hoped that people would stop implementing SAML.

Would you be open to comparing notes on test suites for SAML implementations?

I was in late night tram regularly in Germany and no one bothered me, no one talked to me inappropriately etc. There were no fights or other aggressive behavior. I have met some young groups apparently going from party a couple of times, but they mostly laughed noisily which hardly qualifies as some kind of horrible behavior. Overall, it was quite boring experience.

So maybe your local culture is somehow worst then the rest of Germany?

> It's my understanding that the ISPs want to rescind the 2015 NN rules so they can offer premium guaranteed/prioritized QoS for specific content types from premium partner providers (e.g. real-time applications such as medical/security devices, VoIP, video conferencing, and streaming audio/video). You can't do this with electrons.

This is actually allowed under current net neutrality rules. As an ISP I can use QoS to make VoIP more reliable, for example. What I can't do is make one specific VoIP provider more reliable than another. If that's the argument that large ISPs are making then they're not being truthful.

I have worked at small ISPs for the last 15 years or so and worked on systems that did these things. FWIW I strongly support net neutrality and I'm especially annoyed with any rhetoric that suggests net neutrality is bad for small ISPs. It's really not.
Consumers Don’t Care About Your Technology
It's still neutral. The reliability doesn't depend on the contents that you're transmitting. Cat pictures sent over a 5-9's SLA line are just as reliable as your video conference.
By "JWT" do you mean the the format? (RFC 7519) Or perhaps you meant OpenID Connect?

> bring back SROs

Not my field, but perhaps more than just SROs?[1] Flops (no bed), dorms (no walls), cages (partial walls), and assorted forms of SROs? And perhaps in a competitive market, so there could be a price/quality spread within each type? A continuum of housing options was apparently eliminated.

One of the effects of concentrating wealth and power, is governance priorities reflect that: "those parts of the economy on which you people depend... well, we disliked or didn't care about them, so they're gone now. shrug." Verizon might be 100k personnel, but opposition to network neutrality is perhaps 1k managers or 100 execs? "Sorry about your Internet, but, Wall Street and year-end bonuses, you understand." Or perhaps our own "sorry about your driving career, but aren't self-driving trucks neat?" :)

The statement "if humans didn't cause the warming, than obviously changing what humans do can't possibly stop it" is often behind the question. And on the flip side, scientists advocating that humans change their behavior wish to show that the suggested actions will make an actual difference.

Sea ice melt is a huge worry because it changes the albedo of the polar ocean. That means more heating from the sun, which means a warmer Arctic and a warmer planet. It's one of the positive reinforcement mechanisms that's a huge worry to the climate community.

Greenland melting is also huge, and sea ice melting will make it go faster.

> The world basically figured out that everyone can have their own currency, so now every little company starts to print their own money?

The so called "cryptocurrencies" aren't currencies at all. They are simply goods which exist for the sole purpose of being traded around in speculative markets. They are no more money than beans or trading cards. These companies know that and invest in the creation and promotion of a new set of trading cards to pump the value to dump them afterwards.
I am not involved with k, and things might have changed significantly, but around the 2003-2005 timeframe, Arthur had very conclusive benchmarks that showed I-cache residence makes a huge difference (IIRC I-cache was just 8KB those days ...).

There's a very nice library called ccxt that uses a code generator to produce python (async and standard), javascript, and PHP libraries that implement a standard interface for dozens (hundreds?) of crypto exchanges. I think a nice project would be an in-browser JS app that accessed each of the APIs in my exchanges (via logged in cookies or API keys or whatever) to pull trade history, deduct fees, and create a CPA-friendly tax form from all of my crypto exchanges.

Civil liberties and cell phone usage in school have nothing to do with each other. Emergencies are dealt with using emergency channels, cell phones are a distraction in school and push kids into the 'upgrade' cycle or they'll be considered not cool because they have old hardware. Clothing and shoes are bad enough.

I'm so glad I wasn't a child in the age of constant parental supervision and communications. And I'll definitely leave my kids free from that. School is there to learn and to socialize with our peers, it is not there to be an extension of parental control.
yes, you can get true failover if you get two lines from the same provider. This will rarely give you an improvement of service though. To visualize it, this is (simplified) how the network looks on the ISP site.

WAN County ---- WAN City ---- WAN Street ---- HOUSE
|--------- HOUSE

The problems are mostly on the WAN Street level, were both failover lanes would end. This isn't always the case! just most of the time. And if both Uplinks are connected to the faulty device, they'll both have the same problem and cant failover.

let me repeat: it is possible to get real failover from the same ISP. It will however be extremely costly, and just getting two lanes from the same Street Router only gives you marginal improvements in uptime
