Sometimes it's slightly simpler to show rather than tell.

The CIDR Report is a publicly accessible compendium of BGP routing announcements. Mind that this isn't the entire Internet, or even entirely current, though it's a very large and generally current version of it. One of the complications is that you're only seeing the routes the CIDR Report itself is aware of (there may be others, though generally those will be small/obscure).

But if you want to know what "the Internet" is, this is pretty much it: a bunch of rules for routing data.

As for BGP, Border Gateway Protocol:

The routes advertised by the AS (autonomous system) in question, AS39523:

http://www.cidr-report.org/cgi-bin/as-report?as=AS39523&view...

(There are a maximum of 2^16 == 65,536 autonomous systems possible under BGP, at least until those counters are extended. What happens under IPv6 may be a bit of a mess....)

Edit: There's 4 billion and change as ASNs are now 32 bit, see: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15915417
It'd be kind of neat if the phones had a mode similar to the "car mode" on Apple phones, where it goes into a DnD mode and becomes inconvenient to unlock and use when at a certain location. So a kid can use the phone, but texting or other features are harder to access in a non-obvious manner and notifications are muted. Almost like being in Airplane mode by default except during in between class breaks.

They are useful tools, but even outside of school they constantly suck away our attention, and apps are designed for this, the constant distraction needs to be curbed, not their use as a pocket computer.

> I appreciate the e-stalk, but that is really regardless of the point. What does this have to do with constitutional rights and a modern electrical grid?

Good question. In point of fact, the reading of your comment history (or e-stalking) was to see if there were examples of you using services most consider the government obligated to provide or support, without a specific Constitutional right explicitly naming them.

> Keep reading the history - I openly admit that I am the same account.

I don't think that's particularly ingenuous, though. "Keep reading my history and after several pages you may find an admission that they're both my accounts... if you're paying attention... if you even notice something odd in the first place..." when you're actively treating the two accounts as individuals 99% of the time (otherwise, why say "hey, user googlrys said something like that before", rather than "I said something like that before on my other account googlrys"?) and interacting between them in a manner that with very few exceptions doesn't say "we are one".

At its core, the current cryptocurrency craze is simply an unprecedented wealth transfer to China from the rest of the world.

Until the end of 2013, Bitcoin was predominantly traded for US dollars. However, after the crash of 2013, miners consolidated in China and Bitcoin mostly traded for Chinese yuan[1]. At the start of 2017, regulators in China cracked down on digital currency exchanges[2] and trading quickly moved to Japanese yen and, more recently, South Korean won[3].

All of the early buyers are selling. This won't end well.

https://www.cdc.gov/foodsafety/rawmilk/rawmilk-outbreaks.htm...

> From 2007 through 2012, 26 states reported 81 outbreaks linked to raw milk. The outbreaks caused 979 illnesses and 73 hospitalizations.

> From 2007 through 2009, 30 outbreaks were linked to raw milk. This increased to 51 outbreaks from 2010 through 2012.
Among outbreaks in which the food or drink linked to the outbreak was identified, the percentage associated with raw milk increased from 2% from 2007 through 2009 to 5% from 2010 through 2012.

[...]

> Probably no more than 1% of the milk consumed in the United States is raw, yet more outbreaks were linked to raw milk than by pasteurized milk.

> If you consider the number of outbreaks associated with raw milk in light of the very small amount of milk that is consumed raw, the risk of outbreaks linked to raw milk is at least 150 times greater than the risk of outbreaks linked to pasteurized milk. [...] E. coli O157:H7, which can cause kidney failure and death, was a common cause of outbreaks linked to raw milk. Relatively mild viral infections and toxins were common causes of outbreaks linked to pasteurized milk.

This seems pretty high relative to the number of people regularly consuming raw milk.

Good justification for a lockout triggering mechanism built into a protocol:

Automatic Rifle. The major difference between an automatic rifle and a machine gun is the latter is designed for sustained automatic fire. Machine guns will typically be quite a bit heavier since that helps with sustained fire.

Submachine guns are automatic pistols, which is to say they fire lower power pistol ammunition, and, like pistols, usually have shorter barrels than rifles. Typically also have accuracy comparable to pistols rather than rifles.
This kind of stupidity happens to NTP frequently. The ironic thing is NTP is so lightweight that sometimes it's better to just answer the query than try to block the traffic. The DNS traffic is more expensive than the time query!

I wanted to ignore this since I don't enjoy subjective arguments, but since you seem to be virtue signalling about disclosures, I'd like to point out that your own page with Amazon affiliate links [http://evilrouters.net/bookshelf/] does not disclose your affiliation to Amazon (which is itself a violation of section 5 of the Amazon affiliate program agreement), nor does your DISCLOSURE page (whose link is also at the very bottom right of your page).

Presumably they are talking about a VPN service hosted somewhere outside of your ISP's network, so your ISP could only throttle traffic between you and your VPN service but not between the VPN service and the content provider.

The VPN's ISP or the content provider's ISP or any transit provider in the middle could throttle between the VPN service and the content provider, but there is far, far more competition among ISP's suitable for server farms and transit providers than there is among residential ISP's so they are much less likely to be able to get away unreasonable throttling.
There are some tasks that haven't been solved well by machine learning algorithms yet. Like visual question answering. However I'm not sure how easy it would be to get them into the form of a CAPTCHA without making it easy for a bot to just guess and get it right a lot of the time. And even though they haven't been solved well, it's probably good enough to get past a CAPTCHA a lot of the time.

I expect these sort of systems will move to 'social proofs' - do you have a long-standing account etc.

This is such a luddite view and frankly almost a power tripping view. Have you thought that they are "addicted" to being social with their friends like normal teenagers are? It already is against policy in most places to have smart phones during class, why ban them during breaks?

It's during freaking breaks. How about let kids be kids for once and stop trying to grope into their personal lives! Why do you need to police their breaks too? How is this not a civil rights issue?

As millenials and gen xers age, they are forgetting they were kids once and are quickly becoming twice the son of hell authoritarians their parents were.

As a no longer suffering user of X10 now enjoying ZWave, the issue is usually crossing the out of phase 110 legs (every other full size breaker in the panel is on a different leg).

To cross the phases, the signal has to go to the power pole where the phases originate. X10 has a repeater you can install and sometimes people just install a passive one (a capacitor if I recall.)

In a smaller house, signalling to the panel and back out to circuits on the same leg is more likely to work than crossing the phases.

"There is half a terabyte of DDR4 RAM on each machine."

The core i5 system only has 16GB of RAM. I love to see what that number would looks like if it also has 512GB or more of DDR4 with NVME drive.

Also one can also try increase to data size from 1.1 B -> 1000B and see how it scale on Minsky cluster.

Inaction Inertia Effect: Do you still regret missing a Black Friday deal?
Allow me to clarify. I 100% agree with requiring accredited investors for ICO participation (or IPO or CryptoKitty speculation, etc). My blue collar parents could hardly be expected to spend the full time effort required to do due diligence on an ICO while they were working 2 jobs to make ends meet. In fact they did quite well investing in mutual funds and receiving a pension from a stable employer.

As an aside, I disagree that the current accreditation is a good measure of being "qualified" - anyone who inherited $1M can be accredited - but it's what we got; at least one bad investment decision won't bankrupt a foolish heir.

Investing in an ICO has essentially the same risks as investing as an angel or VC. I have both invested and received investment and the due diligence process varies greatly from firm to firm, angel to angel. The good ones make good decisions, largely based on lots of hard work. Anyone interested in investing in an ICO could do the same. I have looked at many ICOs and have probably spent over 100 hours of hard work doing due diligence on the few ICOs that looked legit. I pulled the trigger on one, and passed on many more.

To me what ICOs represent are a fundamental shift in the marketplace from a closed door, network based, "clubby" process to a transparent, data rich, open process. Not that they cannot be gamed, especially when early investors get different coin prices, etc. Due diligence is definitely required.

The pain this is trying to solve is to allow companies who need access to capital to get it without having to visit Sand Hill Road or apply to incubators. It's not a silver bullet, it's just a different way.

The SEC shutting down scams is a good thing. The SEC chilling all ICOs is a bad thing and protects the status quo and limits innovation. A legit business - even if just an idea - should be able to put its idea and data out there and the founder's experience and expertise, and let the market (of professional investors) decide.

I think the SEC should have a version of some of the Excel sheets you find on Google to check whether an ICO is legit or not. It should not require lawyers. It should be based on Yes or No questions. If a founder can pass that test, the SEC should back off and let the market decide.

But yes, ICO participation should be limited to professional investors. But if there is innovation allowed, maybe there could be a retail-focused ETF for ICOs, for example.

> you can imagine their opinion of French police isn't too dissimilar of yours about US police.

I was talking about the soldiers though, and how they are actually harmless to civilians.

Police is of course a different matter, even though they still are far less lethal than in the US. As far as I know, in the US soldiers don't patrol the streets and their role is taken by the police force however, so that's why I compared them. My wife is not from Europe and I live in the "Arab district" of my city, so I have a reasonably good understanding of how our police force works.
