Japan's constitution bans war and sets a percentage of GDP limit on their military, but it doesn't force them to forego having a military altogether.

Japan is also a very rich nation, still 3rd in the world by GDP I believe and were only relatively recently overtaken by the PRC in that regard as they were 2nd in the world for a very long time. So even with a limit of 1% of national GDP, that is a pretty large budget and they still rank among the big spenders in terms of absolute dollars spent on their military every year.

Given they live under the American nuclear umbrella, and American treaty obligations state that the US will come to Japan's aid should it be attacked, the Japanese have focused their defense dollars around a Self Defense Force, less blue water and more green water for their navy for example. Helicopter carriers rather than large aircraft carriers because their focus is on anti-submarine warfare, not force projection.

If their focus had been on force projection and the restrictions in their constitution didn't exist, then the PRC would most likely have been stymied long ago trying to project power out into the South China Sea.

> It seems impossible to implement true decentralized routing, so it's likely they're using some sort of hack to prioritize "masternodes" as the backbone routers instead of actual peer to peer routing.

What do you mean "impossible to implement true decentralized routing"? Many examples of decentralized distance vector and link state algorithms exist. I'm not sure what they are doing but routing isn't some mystical thing that requires a master node.

Here's a thing I did a while ago: https://github.com/jtremback/reactive-payment-routing
Sorry but you are really on the wrong track on every point. Attack surface (the drivers are the GPU OS, though hardware bugs do play a part too), GPU memory sensitivity, WebGL history (it's been much worse, not DoS only etc).

(And re the MMU features upthread, it's just a building block. Just like CPU having a MMU doesn't make your OS magically secure)
While it might improve the system, one of the things I think is broken is the lack of real political party diversity. People can feel like they must choose between Scylla and Charybdis.

At rare times we have successful third party representation in government. Take John Eder as an example. He was the in the Maine House of Representatives, and a member of the Green Party.

As https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Eder#Redistricting_and_se... points out:

> In 2003 Eder was voted Portland's Best Politician in a readers poll conducted by that city's alternative weekly newspaper, the Portland Phoenix, just as redistricting in Maine was threatening to unseat Eder by separating him from his base of support in Portland's West End. The redistricting was seen by many as a deliberate effort by legislative Democrats to oust Eder.

This proposed redistricting fix would not prevent similar politically motivated efforts.
Real-life implementation

On 28 April 2001, IPoAC was actually implemented by the Bergen Linux user group, under the name CPIP (for "Carrier Pigeon Internet Protocol").

[4] They sent nine packets over a distance of approximately five kilometers (three miles), each carried by an individual pigeon and containing one ping (ICMP Echo Request), and received four responses.
i don't know how truly random a crc function is, but they're really cheap to implement in an fpga. especially if you're just pulling the bit off the end for a bitstream, and you can just feed the output or some polynomial into the input instead of an input stream. but that's where my thoughts end.

stays in (quote) "sane C files". So please keep that in mind as we drive
this further."

> As you usually cannot extend the timeout on those servers, you simply move to a different set of 10 servers during each refresh.

Think about that from a technical perspective and you’ll realize the flaw. :)

You can’t cycle to a new set unless the authoritative server is still responding with the key. If the authoritative server still has it, what difference does the fact a caching name server has it? Furthermore, there’s zero guarantees a caching resolver will cache for the length of the specified TTL, so you literally have a land mine that’ll explode randomly and cause you to lose your data.

> As the GP hints

Read it again. GP’s Github link doesn’t allude to what you imply it does. Storing arbitrary data in DNS is of course possible and others will cache it for you, but implying anything like what you described as feasible just doesn’t hold merit.

> but calling it "factually not correct" is unfair.

This entire theory you posted originally doesn’t hold up to even basic technical review. It’s nothing against you personally, the idea simply doesn’t provide any actual benefit and very fairly is factually incorrect.

I see, and this was your original point.

I guess the only threat there (that I can see) is that the install script can be malicious, but your point was that you’re trusting the owners of the website anyway by downloading their binary and executing their code locally.
It can be argued that it’s probably easier to ship malicious code outside the main repository (e.g. in an install script) but I do not have a good counter besides this weak argument.

The checksum is indeed usually on the same page and does make it useless in my hypothetical MITM.
Is there any definition of "capital" which (a) is justified by some principle other than pure historical usage; and (b) doesn't include land?

I can sort of see where labor would be different, but to me it looks like land is squarely in the middle of the "capital" concept.
I mean you're just describing make but with hashes instead of file modification times. It's probably the most common criticism of make that its database is the filesystem. If file modification times aren't meaningful to your workflow then of course make won't meet your needs. But saying the solution is 'make with a different back-end' seems a little silly, not because it's not useful, but because they're not really that different.

GNU make handles multiple outputs alright but I will admit they if you want something portable it's pretty hairy.

> Is it also a failure (moral or otherwise) for the State to not tell citizens of this particular duty?

Yes - but realistically, what do you think State education is _for_?

Primarily, it's to ensure a citizenry that obeys and supports laws. Staying informed is a very distant second, and participation is actively quashed from the get-go. (What proportion of your local school board consists of children?)

As for how to stay informed - learn the basics of the technologies involved, and follow the news feeds of folks with a deep interest in the field. In this case, the EFF is a good start.

But realistically, there's too much for one person to cover. Tech? Sure, perhaps. But then there's medicine, finance, real estate, construction ...

So really, what you're left with is electing representatives who will provide responsible oversight. But realistically, almost all of them are in the pockets of lobbyists at this point.

TBH I'm not sure what the solution is, here.

So perhaps it _isn't_ a moral failure any more, because the scope has grown to the point where most people say "fuck it" and give up.

My point is that if those needs are met, then happiness becomes a question of what personally makes you happy and not just what you need to not be homeless.
The change occurred ages ago so I might be forgetting details, but what I think was removed was a more curated way of matching stations with the activity, with descriptions for each. Now it is just a ton of radio stations that often seem unrelated, and no upfront description of what it is unless you click through. Just more giant thumbnails I don't need.
Usually you just compare the target value with a random number sequence to generate the bitstream, and use a counter to sum everything up and convert it back. Most recent work takes advantage of deterministic number sequences like Halton, Sobol, or LFSR sequences. It might seem counter intuitive to be using deterministic number sequences but you really only care about the correlation between the generated bitstreams at the end of the day since this affects the accuracy.

The vision is to let anyone check out any repository and just run one command that works irrespective of the actual build tool to compile those sources in the right environment and get you binaries in the end.

It's amazingly difficult to find examples of businesses considered "successful" that aren't somewhat pyramid-shaped.

And as soon as I find one, it turns out it relies on a larger ecosystem that itself is pyramid-shaped.

None of these enterprises can survive for the long run, but since in the long run we're all dead, maybe it only matters if you can ride the wave in the short run??
You're right. Many have raised this concern, and we'll be sure to improve its design. Thanks for taking time to share the feedback!

If police harass minorities, it generates the most data in the places they harass them. Then they feed this data into the computer and algorithmically generate "unbiased" results that prove they should be harassing minorities.... that is unless this tendency was explicitly corrected for somehow. Was it? If it was, that's its own can of worms, but is at least debatable as to whether there's an acceptable way to do so.

Importantly, these algorithms should not be secret. These are the kinds of choices a democratic society should make.

Computer Science isn’t necessarily about writing code.
For me, the problem with all make replacements is that they don't just solve makefile's issues in knowledge-compatible way, but reinvent their own cryptic syntax and structure from scratch. Minor issues that you know about (and know how to avoid) are never worth fixing in this way, since most people don't have time to learn infinite variations of superior tool #1 that has its own flaws. They are fine with #2 that works for them.

When someone says "there are numerous alternatives", I just look out the window and smile.

Almost all issues mentioned itt can be solved in barely-compatible, but easily transition-able way. If this tool exists, its name is welcome.

Yep basically. BTC is tied up in channels and when you want to take it out of the lightning network you write a transaction to the actual block chain. Though with the way lightning routing works you can keep your money in the network for months or even years making hundreds of transactions. It's kind of like having a debit account (bitcoin lightning) and a savings account (bitcoin stored in cold storage) with your bank.

Consider that maybe happiness isn't about "personal happiness". If all that one needs to be happy is to not have stress, why question that and desire more? By questioning it, you're undermining the happiness. The goal shouldn't be to raise the happiness bar, it should be to lower it so that more people can experience happiness. Why should only those with significant means beyond the bare necessities have access to happiness?

If you're always questioning if you're happy enough, you'll never truly reach happiness.

So one obtains shelter, and healthcare, and an education, and all those things you listed. And they're still not happy? If cake is the baseline, is more icing going to make that much better?
