I don't know if you've worked in a large corporation, but during my time in one we would constantly get senior management talking about how we were doing really well and going to do great things and we were making history.... whilst goals and deadlines were missed constantly and everyone knew we had no chance of meeting them. We had a product delayed by 4 years and when it finally shipped the head of software sent out an email congratulating everyone on their hardwork on that final push to get it out before the EOY deadline (the original deadline was EOY 4 years earlier). It's just what senior management does, don't read into it.
I think this is a great example of hampering technical manufacturing growth in the US.

A repost of my comment from few months ago:

When it comes to trade war topic these days, most Western commentators completely miss that a trade war is what China was preparing for the last three decades. They well expected somebody like Trump eventually coming, as well as economic pressure on a scale even bigger than what the West puts on North Korea and banana republics. They totally understood that the West will not play nice with them forever, nor that the unprecedentedly long period of good weather in the global economy will last forever.

There is zero questions about China's economic policy being very strategic, and deliberate. Chinese state conglomerates may look to just littering around the world with money, but analyze it more, and you see a pattern, one that is very much like a game of Go - victory by limiting enemy moves.

They buy ally countries, strategically - they buy resource supplying countries, often with major holds on markets of vital commodities.

Their tech purchases - mostly underappreciated market leaders with industry wide influence. Kuka - the only company you can say to be Tier 1 in robotics, all other competitors combined will not be an equivalent for it. I has almost complete dominance over major heavy industries. Lattice Semi - the one and only FPGA company that can threaten the Xilinx-Altera duopoly. And so on and on and on.

Their domestic tech development - even more so. People talk about China dominating consumer goods manufacturing without realisation that it has even bigger hold of manufacturing machinery industry - manufacturing can't really leave China with Chinese made manufacturing equipment being locked down.

The whole industry you can call "Manufacturing machinery 2.0" is a domestic Chinese development. Biotech - China quietly ate the market for genetic engineering reagents, as well as much for complex organic chemistry. There are megatons of biotech startups in the West, but they all feel that they will eventually have to move to China to have any chance to scale - effectively they are already a Chinese property.

Military allies - well, there things are even more obvious.

Major trade agreements - same. Their idea is to bind any major developing market niche to Chinese economy before the West even realizes its emergence.

Their idea - to make it so that if somebody wants to do anything any much big being impossible without involving a Chinese company or state institution at some part of the process - to make it "You can't do that without China"

It does. I use i3 everywhere, and once you've logged in, there's absolutely no difference across any Linux distro or BSD I've tried. Debian, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Alpine linux... short of actually running `uname`, it's not really possible to tell what the underlying system is.

Not just userspace - OSX adopted large pieces of FreeBSD kernel, including the syscall layer and the network stack. Also, Mach isn't technically a microkernel - the whole kernel runs in Ring 0.

But yeah, OSX kernel is vastly different from FreeBSD - first, there were huge differences to start with, only some pieces of kernel were adopted, and finally there were thousands of man-hours put into each system afterwards, diverging them even more.
They worked hard to get born to rich parents.
Agree. It was my point. `true 0== 1` resolves to true, but shouldn't so `true == 1 === true` should be false but is true, which could at the very least be called ambiguous to people not familiar with the language. It may reflect somewhat badly on Brendan since they felt compelled to introduce === to rectify this. Personally I think it made the language richer, with more options to chose from depending on circumstance, and it was more like an adaption to the new uses for js.

/me looks at Wikipedia page of Kevin Systrom

I think I'd be okay with being Kevin Systrom. (Especially considering that Systrom is mostly unknown in the general public, whereas Zuck has a large amount of people who personally hate him.)
I'd argue neither side is "good". It's good that we have both opposing sides. Both can be exploited for bad, but each time it happens there is an opportunity for the other side to gain something. And a smart investor certainly keeps open eyes for both directions.
> There is no need to be going into a trade war against not only traditionally our rivals but also our allies now too.

And yet other countries never seem to entertain the idea of both sides getting rid of all their tariffs, which is something Trump suggested at that G7 summit.

Everyone goes nuts when the US suggests implementing tariffs against countries that already have tariffs against us. You gotta admit, the message seems to be that other countries are allowed to protect their domestic industry via tariffs and the US is just supposed to deal with it, don’t wanna start a trade war!
When I was first learning Linux (almost 20 years ago [yikes]), I installed it by hand using the Linux From Scratch guide. It was invaluable for learning a ton about how Linux works at a deep level. While a lot has changed since then (mainly due to UEFI), that knowledge is still valuable for understanding how a system functions.

Which would then be roughly why this happened and is coming out now.
I don't. I consider this to be educational effort, to discuss these arguments with people and to change their mind on that, so that next time they won't bring them up and they'd educate their peers on the matters.
I love the elegance of this, unfortunately I can imagine an attempt to use it devolving into the "more than two genders" argument.
> A /64 can't be subnetted any more (one host, NO VMs!).

Why not directly bind all VMs to laptop's NIC? This way, they can get IP from the same /64 subnet. On firewall, only enable public access to those VMs that are needed.

I do have a home lab, but every VM is directly bridged to NIC and gets its IP from home router. So a single /64 is sufficient for me.

Workaholism is praised by our culture. In fact, it's probably necessary for capitalism to function at all. Without that societal impetus I imagine everything would crumble.

I know a few "problematic" kids, from slackers to convicted violent robbers, and none of them deny the existence of consequences. What I see is overconfidence in their ability to predict them, or a fatalism about their lack of real options.

I can see chess helping with some aspects of their mental health (training calm logical thinking, coping with losing), but I don't think it actually teaches anything about consequences.
Also the really bad stuff sometimes dies under its own weight. Natural selection occasionally works.

Is that true for open source software that is not making any money? I would be very surprised if a big company went after someone maintaining an open source project.

That would be some pretty terrible PR:

“Billion dollar company X sues open source developer because the shade of blue used in their logo is too similar.

A spokesperson for X said that ‘Although they are releasing this software for free to help the community, we can’t have people being confused about the shade of blue they used.’”

It almost sounds like an Onion article to me.

Sometimes it's fine to do that, other times it isn't. If you plan to test network topology, firewalls, you can't do that. If you plan to run untrusted VMs, you also can't do that.
I don't know anything about economy, so this is a question not.. a counter, but:

> In a functioning market, local suppliers are likely to raise prices in response to the tariffs, as they face less competition.

Is that entirely bad? The whole "US Made!" tagline of old stopped becoming possible because we couldn't charge wages low enough to compete with foreign dollars or foreign slave wages. Raising the cost of X item so that it is actually able to be produced locally would seem to, conceptually, bring that type of job "back".

With that said, there's the obvious opposite of now every item US made is meaningfully more expensive. Seeing as so much of what we buy is made offshore, this seems to effectively raise the cost of living.

So, I don't really have any answers.. but hey, I don't work in economics :)
I don't think anybody is fighting against helping their fellow man. What they are angry about is having the big guns of government pointed at their heads while the rewards of their labor are siphoned away under the guise of charity. Once you help someone at another person's expense, you've crossed the border between charity and extortion.
Hopefully you realize that eliminating all tariffs was never a US negotiating position, it was a random stupid thing the president said.
These kinds of consent forms are often designed by advertising companies using the IAB consent framework. The idea is that once a user has opted in on one site, their consent will carry over to every other site using the same framework. Naturally it's in their best interests not to allow you to mass opt out.

This kind of behavior may be going against the spirit of the GDPR, which states consent must be "freely given". Presenting hundreds of check boxes to click may be considered coercing the user into consenting. Will be interesting to see the first rulings about these kinds of popups and the even riskier "consent-walls".
Doesn't Dragonfly (freebsd fork as of 2003) have even lower latency?
For Starcraft specifically, I've probably played 2k hours of SC:BW and maybe 3-4k of SC2, so I'd agree it is no joke and practicing is quite important. I managed to reach the top 2% of MMR by grinding out numerous games (as Zerg, FWIW), averaging 2.5 h/daily at my peak. I would practice economy/production (macro) and build orders outside of my matches, then bring those in to the competitive 1v1 ladder and figure out all the weird rush builds that needed to be scouted for/prevented.

I actually am trying to cut out games, however, since I find the stress on the wrists/hands that comes with coding + piano + gaming to be too much. So, when push comes to shove, I just end up watching some SC pro matches these days, as opposed to putting my wrist health in jeopardy.
This made me wonder, what fucked up shit is being hidden from me?
haha. Its really sad and funny
tl;dr : Replacements in mostly uncontested deployments, with a focus on a relatively inexpensive and easy to maintain aircraft, with additional roles as recon and trainer aircraft. NOT an all-out fleet replacement for the Warthog.
Nice. I think it would be better if there are some categories as well.
"I'm not a libertarian but The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith states that all country will have certain expertise they are just good at. Whether it is because the geography that enable them to be better than other or other things, because they're good at certain thing, countries should play to their strength and trade for what they need."

And I am not against free trade (well, with reservations), but I think this idea has been proven wrong historically. I think countries that try to do a bit of everything, be self-sufficient, and perhaps specialize only in some very specific areas are generally more successful.

Just look at the U.S. as an example - if they followed Smith's advice, they would still continue to trade cotton. This advice will never let countries to build up an industrial base. (Or funny you mentioned LG - they were originally a textile corporation but the government forced them into electric industry.)

In my view, a country should have as many diverse industries as much it can keep all the specialists busy (the same is true for companies, by the way). That means to try to produce locally everything that is sufficiently consumed locally.

The reason why is that there are strong network effects in diversification. It's great if you e.g. produce agricultural machinery and you can talk directly to the farmer, who is going to use it. If you sell this machinery to people on the other side of the planet, with a cultural barrier, this gets much trickier.
On the one hand creating GPS-enabled autodispatching minicabs did allow for a difference in scale that makes it a genuinely different service from what was there previously.

But when all these services end up doubling in price, as they're going to inevitably have to do (and the autonomous vehicle cavalry isn't going to charge in to save the day), it will be interesting to see what happens. My own experiences suggest there are a lot of people who don't want to get sweaty walking 3 blocks or to mingle with the masses on mass transit.

What tends to happen in reality, after the code gets 7-8 years or more long and it's always been piecemeal and spaghetti code then each change is exponentially more difficult to make.

There is the story by Robert C Martin about the company that made a really good C debugger back in the day. Then C++ came out and the company promised to make a version for it. Well months came and went and eventually they went out of business. Because the first version of the debugger they wrote was awful code it made changes really hard to mark and so they couldn't adapt to the changing market.
There was no need to "well actually" that, as it is the same point the parent was making: that money (and UB abuse) is why the tuned compilers now exist.
> Hard to distinguish between fraud, delusion, and currently impossible that will get done.

I agree that it's hard for the VCs to distinguish. I've also seen plenty of situations where the VCs out of their technical depth and make preventable bad calls in both directions (investing in bad tech and passing on very feasible tech). I'm just saying that it would be good for the VCs and the entire ecosystem for them to put more resources into much better vetting of technology.

> This environment is either a virtuous circle that'll lift all boats (to mix metaphors), or the opposite

I'm not saying that it's an absolute with all vectors pointing in the same direction. Even strongly positive or negative environments will contain outliers, counter-trend examples, etc. Even on the massive crashing days on the stock exchange, there are always a few stocks that make good gains.

What I'm pointing to (perhaps badly) is the feedback loops between on one side, predominantly sound investment, growing startups bringing good new tech to market, and solid returns, and on the other side, delusional investment, scarcity of good new tech, and poor returns. The former will bring in more startup founders and investors, and the latter will become a dying ecosystem.

A major problem with our industry is that in addition to the visionaries, dreamers, and hard workers, there is a lot of money which is also a magnet for scammers and a variety of toxic personalities. The better we sort the latter from the former, the better off we will all be.
I’d be interested to see its effectiveness vs any other activity involving high quality time with intelligent, motivated, caring adults.

He also investigated "sabotage" when a SpaceX rocket exploded in 2016.

>or a competing manufacturer, or an oil / gas company finally picking things up after a terrible oil price collapse

This is borderline ridiculous. Are you really convinced that Tesla is on the verge of upending the entire energy world? That any minute now they are going to put Big Oil out of business? Companies like Exxon and BP are doing far more R&D into renewables than Tesla is. They aren't even thinking about Tesla. Other auto manufacturers are spending more on R&D and working hard to get cars out. They are behind, but they are succeeding.

Outside of the coastal elites or tech junkies, Tesla is practically unknown and is a rounding error to competitors. The data shows they aren't "growing like gangbusters". Model S/X are stagnating, SolarCity is installing far less per quarter (and essentially laid everyone off recently). Read the financials.

There are tons of competitors in both renewables and cars, but they all decided to pick on Tesla, did they?

>but when you're working at this level as CEO I feel like you have to at least consider the possibility.

So you say it in an email and leak it to the press before any investigation is done?

I called this a long time ago, on these forums: if/when Tesla blows up, everyone is going to point to some conspiracy, rather than lack of execution. Silicon Valley has completely lost touch with reality.
(Apple user, so mentioning apps for this ecosystem)

While listening to podcasts or get an idea while walking around, I record using the iPhone Voice Memos.

I then reprocess those recordings from time to time and put the gist into written words.

When I'm doing some brain dump on random ideas I use MindNode Pro.

It's a stretch to say the Soviets stole the atomic bomb plans, if what they got was a rough blueprint of one of the original designs which was not used to produce the size of bomb needed to be useful. The spys may have accelerated the development by a few years at most. Also I believe a lot of the intelligence came a lot from Russia's spy network in the UK, but semantics.

It's generally assumed, by Oppenheimer very vocally, that once an atomic bomb would eventually be produced, the physics weren't that complicated, this is coming from him, not me. This was accelerated by the U.S. showing that it could be done, but would not have prevented the development of a bomb. The U.S. couldn't keep researches from publishing fully, eventually the dots would be connected.

You state that this is what escalated the Cold war and almost brought us WWIII, well, the cold war was scary and developed lots of proxy wars, but it led to a 60 year time period where two of the largest powers never engaged in direct conflict. It's argued routinely that the only reason for this is both sides have nuclear weapons and the mutual assured destruction idea. If neither side had developed nuclear weapons then there would have certainly been another war between U.S. and Russia.
> it disallows an English speaker to refer to a person in a gender unspecified way

it's really not that hard to use singular "they". we already do it naturally in instances like "someone left their coat here. i hope they don't need it today." it only gets confusing when you try to talk about a gender unspecified member of a group and the group at the same time.

you can certainly debate whether you should have to adjust the way you speak, but it's not like what people are requesting with pronouns is actually hard.

Sure but who admins the git server? At work it's actually me (and my team) - we have backend access to the git repos as a necessary result of that.

Since it's an academic project, I doubt that they published the code. You could try asking the first author [1], but don't expect too much.
