you know what’s weird? In Europe and America we consider animated films “cartoons”, say they are for kids, and generally don’t see them as a serious storytelling medium. But in Japan, an animated film is not seen in this manner. In fact, animated films enabled movie directors in Japan to depict scenes that were simply impossible or prohibitively expensive to create with cameras and actors. So back when movie cameras were just starting to capture a decent frame rate and resolution, there were already excellent stories being told via hand-drawn animations and voice. The Japanese animators really embraced the creative freedoms that animation enables and you can see it in the wonderful storytelling value of their animated works.

TLDR; in Japan an animated movie is a real movie.
There were billions spent on ads, so the effect is pretty questionable given how small a piece of that they were and the overall tactics have been in use for at least a decade now.

That said, there's plenty to be mad about, but it's more in how Facebook was sharing everything for you (part of the reason I never made an account there) and less with the wranglings over what a ToS violation means on top of that.
> and if that means waiting a full generation for the data to come in, so be it

I think we're pretty close to having a full generation's worth of data, considering it was approved by the FDA in 1981.
This, of course requires tracking of owners. If you're on the JVM, that's not so cheap. If you're already tracking pointers or can do compiler-aided RAII like python, or c++ then it's relatively simple unless you also need recursive data structures which "own" themselves.

It's kind of a ridiculous statement. If I put out a commercial targeting certain areas that's what we'd call 'affecting the vote' just as well.
That's a major assertion without much back it up. I have no data either, but anecdotally I'd say you're probably wrong. I grew up in small town america, you don't get exposed to different view points, and if you do the common action is to just deal with the friends you have; there's not much else (this is why the bubbling on social media happens so readily; it's what people are already doing). Also I hesitate to assign people "unfriending" as a negative feedback loop. You get no notification you've been unfriended, and there's no mechanism to indicate why the action took place. If anything it might be reaffirming?

I'd also posit you're underestimating the value of a network of weak connections. This is especially true under the idea that most people will work some place different than where they grew up; reconnecting with friends that drift toward the same hub is a powerful tool.

According to a Kickstarter update from Nightdive, EDMS was the physics system, written by Seamus Blackley. It stands for 'Emetic Dynamics Modeling System'... Possibly a reference to the way discarded items would go flying out the center of the viewport :)

Edit: EDMS/SOLITON.CC confirms above is correct (speculation about origin of the name is still speculation, however)
Yeah, experiencing a lot of "little deaths" makes it easier. These can be the death of a relative, a near-death experience, or a serious trauma that means you will never realize your previous dreams (e.g. a football player losing his legs). Your ego starts to dissolve, and you become less caught up in your ambitions. You accept that what feels like unending potential does in fact end.
A million times this.

Cleaning up bad data after the fact can actually be impossible. When it is possible, it can be annoying, tedious, and easy to fuck up.

All of this can be avoided by an astonishingly small amount of forward thinking. What columns should not be nullable? What are the maximum sizes needed for strings, numbers, and binary data? Which columns or sets of columns should only ever be inserted once? What columns point to other rows, should they be required, and what should happen if one side or the other has deletion attempted?

Constraints should cover basic data consistency guarantees. Validations are fine for business logic and business requirements, since those might change more frequently.
Besides being much newer (and lighter components are now available), the electronics for a Free Space Optical system are much lighter than the electronics for an RF system.

The concept 'Size, Weight, and Power' (SWaP) is commonly used when comparing FSO vs. RF systems. Incidentally, FSO systems have lower SWaP than RF systems. They're smaller and lighter payloads, and the system requires less poweR.

It depends on the population density of the area. This will be very good for rural and semi-rural areas, but in Australia at least for any metropolitan/suburban area our current LTE is probably almost already higher capacity than a connection using this satellite constellation will be.

People are a little over-excited about the possibilities of this network - even with the huge number of satellites they have, if you’re in a densely populated area you could still be sharing a spot beam with 100k to many hundreds of thousands of people. Now, even if they had a ridiculously good 1Tbps per spot beam (currently there are satellites that can do that much throughout for the whole thing but in reality you’d probably be both power- and RF spextrum-constrained).

So at 100k subscribers you’re down to about 15Mbps per subscriber (being really generous), so you’re talking about on average, best case in suburban areas having a 50-60Mbps service. In metro probably more like 10 theoretically (and potentially an order of magnitude less in reality with decent take up rate)...

This kind of speed is already fairly common in Australia in metro/suburban areas (I have 100/40Mbps) and LTE is generally is even faster but the quotas really small (I have 12Gbps a month on LTE but 1Tb on my cable).

The main problem for this kind of internet in Australia is that we have some of the highest urbanisation in the world (which actually makes it easy to run fixed line services like FTTH to 80% or so of our population - our problems have been almost entirely a failed Government privatisation of our monopoly telco (which turned them into a single, huge, anticompetitive private monopoly) and then a change of Government watering down a Government-run last mile network that was in early construction that private retailers would sell services over on an open-access basis (changing to obsolete technology like FTTN from FTTH on ideological grounds to cripple it)).

So we don’t have as much as the market in the semi-rural kind of density which is where Spacex’s idea would really shine.

Another vote for Arduino, especially if you're coming from the world of software.

Your first project will be to make an LED blink, but to do that properly you need to use Ohm's Law (or else you'll forget the resistor and burn something up).

Then you'll make the LED change state based on a button press, which will teach you about pull-up resistors.

Eventually you'll add a modern version of a 7400 IC or two. You'll try powering too many components (likely more LEDs), and you'll discover why decoupling capacitors matter. You might even mess with a MOSFET.

By this point you're a competent novice in digital electronics, and you're likely ready to start learning some of the fundamentals of analog electronics. But along the way it felt like you were just doing a bit more with software, so it was a really easy learning curve.

my community college electronics professor was probably the best professor i had. Some of the text books were actually good too (unlike the ones the university used).

Not everyone agrees that “destroyer” and “scourge”, etc, are any less emotive of words. In fact, they end up being suggestive in unnecessary ways.
Yeah, it's unfortunately not the easiest thing in the world. I suggest cloning a working Raspbian installation to your server, pointing tftp at /boot (with the "--secure" option set so as to allow relative paths). You can then set up a rw NFS share on / for the Pi to boot off of (and lock it down with your firewall).

You also need to point the Pi to the server via DHCP, which you can do in dnsmasq like so:

dhcp-option=43,Raspberry Pi Boot

dhcp-option=66,$SERVERIP

I wrote up a more complete guide here a while back: https://adamfontenot.com/post/how_to_netboot_a_raspberry_pi_...

The other really cool thing you can do with this is install qemu emulation support for arm on the server and then use systemd-nspawn to chroot into your Raspbian installation. Then for any commands that don't need access to the Pi's ports, you can run them directly on the server. It's really nice to do updates this way, much faster than looping them through the Pi and its slow processor.

Love following your projects, by the way.

>Secondly an ISP charges you a subscription and that is their revenue model. They are not incentivised to build an elaborate profile on your in order to deliver advertisement.

Please, everyone, stop saying things like this. Just because you pay a company money for a service does not mean you magically have a perfectly balanced relationship with them. They are in a position of extreme power and will not stop caring about aggregating what you do in a machine readable format in fine detail, all the while doing so behind a veil of legalese opt-out style tactics.

Beyond the lobbying for more relaxed data collection / monetization laws, ISPs have been fined in the past for injecting tracking cookies to keep better record of your browsing habits. They’ve been caught selling IP identification api’s. No, they don’t care about delivering advertising to you, they just want to broker your data to companies who will.

Impressive, but will it run Linux without being a pain in the ass? In all seriousness, I feel like the Thinkpads almost, but not completely, manage to be the standard Linux laptop.

Especially for pro laptops, I don’t understand where there can be benefit in producing anything other than a platinum level supported linux machine. Assuming mostly Windows users, what does Linux compatibility really cost manufacturers?
> let's also realize that most of these organizations use proprietary software (untrustworthy by default)

This is completely incorrect. The only example of a data breach you gave was a result of open source software (Apache Struts for Equifax). Open source software has contributed to plenty of data breaches, and I seriously doubt you've ever audited the millions of open source packages and dependencies you're using.

This is bad corporate security, by believing this type of nonsense. Then you'd inadequately assign risk, and fail to protect against real threats, instead focusing on 1990's "M$" risk.

> How proprietary software works is a secret

I don't need to know how exactly software works to make calculated decisions about risk. We sign vendor service agreements with other companies, that give us assurances about their data handling practices, their audit/compliance history, etc. I can look at how vendors manage their PSA process, how transparent they are with security disclosures, things like that.

It's my understanding that the EU right to be forgotten legislation places the onus on the search engines to do the delinking. It's the search engines that have forms to submit requests to, not BBC, CNN and so on. It's the search that provides the visibility.

I've no idea if they considered barrier to entry or relative size when drafting the law or built in any limitations. Of course until an engine reaches some level of popularity it's unlikely to receive many or any removal requests, so should remain manageable for them. If it were the individual sites every site would need a policy and takedown request, just like most have now added something for DMCA requests. Doesn't that just put the barrier to entry up for everyone publishing a site?

Huh? The Orange Line has one stop in Medford. I live near it. Before that is an expensive shopping area in Somerville, and after that is Malden Center.

>However, BART runs on time, as does Caltrain. To the minute, unless somebody kills themselves on the tracks. You know exactly when the next BART train will arrive, and when it will get to its destination. By contrast, when I took the Red Line to work I would frequently find myself sitting stopped outside Alewife or Harvard Square for about 20 minutes for track maintenance, or because they lost the third rail, or because there was another train in the station whose doors were jammed, or any number of other reasons that a well-maintained public transportation system shouldn't have.

Boston also sucks at supplying radial transit between the spoke-shaped lines running out of the hubs of North Station, Park Street, State Street, Downtown Crossing, and South Station.

Honest question here- why is it that rage is always directed at the CEO? I mean, there's usually a CTO and / or a COO, plus a director and some other levels of management who actually make the decisions that lead to these scenarios.
Answering that question may be the purpose of this request - since no one knows the state of discourse prior to or after any identified propaganda/ads, it's rather hard to assign any impact.

> In English, most vowel letters end up being diphthongs, and speakers have trouble pronouncing vowels without putting a diphthong-like "curve" to the end of the vowel.

This is overstated. I'll repeat that same sentence with diphthongs replaced by underscores:

In English, m_st v_wel letters end up being diphthongs, and speakers have trouble pron__ncing v_wels with__t putting a diphthong-l_ke "curve" to the end of the v_wel.

And "pronouncing" and "without" use digraphs for the diphthong. But even counting them, or double-counting them, or counting the "e" in like as also "being a diphthong", that doesn't look like "most vowel letters" to me.

You start to miss constraints when you use a database system which has none.

I used Postgres to store various sensor data (some Raspberry, ESP and other "mini" stuff). Then tried InfluxDB, mainly because Grafana supported it, while Postgres did not (it does now!).

Now there are sensor malfunctions, due to old age, no proper connection, bugs or whatever. A Temperature sensor which shows 85 °C while only being capable of 50 °C? You could capture that in the application, but this is cumbersome. Just do it in the database, constraint "temperature < 50" and you are done.

To top it off, deleting wrong data in InfluxDB is a real pain.

To maximize information content (entropy), we must try to use all symbols with equal likelihood - which this rule assists, employing capital symbols with closer to equal likelihood than their usual rarity.

Furthermore, said symbols must convey previously unknown information - which this rule does not, as the nouns have the same meaning whether capitalized as not, and the "information" conveyed is redundant.
