> It's technically impossible to invent a protocol that can query thousands of home-based nodes to return a result that's as fast as a centralized system such as Youtube.

Yeah, but it's possible to crawl and cache all metadata, everything except the actual video and audio, centrally, and search it from there. Sure, that means you can't find a video 5 seconds after it was uploaded, but for practical purposes, it's not hard to imagine a bunch of solutions that would be good enough, especially considering search isn't that great on YT to begin with.

Why can't I search among subscribed channels and filter and order by 20 criteria? Because search on YouTube isn't that good, it's not even trying to be, just like on Facebook for example. Being quick at doing something crummy is still kinda crummy.
Python for the code, Postgres for the backend, Markdown for the frontend. Because I am too lazy to reinvent the wheel, and most of that is good enough.

I would have much preferred to use Perl, R, dotnet, or just about anything else, but there was an already made library in Python that was good enough for 90% of my needs, and 100% with some elbow grease, so my lazyness made me learn Python instead!

But wait- it gets dirtier than this! The code is done is Vi, with no care in the world about version control (rsync does most of what I need: backups), and deployed to servers by manual SCP, with no automatic tests, no care about CD or automatization - yet: as I need more and more servers, I realize I have to spend time learning say ansible to provision them faster than a copy paste of bash (I have low standards but I won't do curl|bash, just... no) but I am delaying that as much as possible to concentate on implementation.

The servers are on Debian VMs on Azure, just because they gave me free credits and do not perform as bad as AWS. When the free credits run out, I will move to DO. Then I will see what else I can use, and that will be the right time to care about ansible or whatever.

Understood.

Your comment suggests we disagree, but I don't think we actually disagree on both the possible impact and lack of ability to control for psychological factors.
> Yet Google just like everyone around have extremely easy sign up process that all criminals are happy about, but can blow you in a face at any time. So they first create a problem to make marketing easier and then try to compensate for it by increasing risk of fault for thrir legit customers.

That's a good point. What's interesting is that Google's capabilities mean that they are able to allocate you the resources you ask for post-signup pretty much instantly, whereas AWS doesn't (they actually are just unable to allocate resources so quickly). This turns out to be a nice property if that n day spinup time window is enough to detect some bad guys and take them down in the interim, before they've caused massive damage to your infra / cost to your org. It's an O(1) improvement though. Bad guys will still just wait you out and then cause damage, so it's not like you're actually less likely to have your account frozen at AWS/Azure vs Google.

Oh, it's huge. These new "tech" suits are big and you now see them in competitions for young kids. Some states have banned them for the under-10 groups, other have not.

It's doubly difficult because you have to be right twice. If you're lucky enough to have called the top, you have to get lucky again and know when the bottom is. If you buy back in on a dead cat bounce, you're still going to lose a bunch of money.
> It will be to split the "MacOS" ecosystem in 2 and maintain two branches for x86 and ARM. And while they also have a team of pretty good software engineers with x86 and ARM experience they are already having major quality control problems lately. Having to maintain a dual ISA MacOS will be a challenge. Then they have to provide the legacy compatibility in order to convince people to buy into something with little to no support for most of what's out there today.

They've done that twice before (68k -> PPC, PPC -> Intel), and IIRC, seem to be preparing to do it again (Bitcode).

I think the biggest risk for Apple is that they may not be able to keep up with x86 on the desktop performance front. They have a much smaller market to amortize the R&D over than Intel does.

They don't use the video data in the simulations, they use the processed "Where everything is" stream. That makes it more robust to sensor tech upgrades, but less to errors to do with bad sensing or sensor failure.

Instead of taxing the CPU with running their benchmarking app they resort to compile it. This reminds me of this [0] interview they gave on XDA-developers:

"One of the things we’ve done in four is we’ve started pausing in between the workloads. Mostly because of thermally constrained devices like these fanless laptops, smartphones, and all that sort of thing."

If we have a CPU benchmark that tries to treat CPUs nicely and avoids any throttling, then what is the purpose of this CPU benchmark?

But didn't Einstein write the following in his own book?

“I believe in intuition and inspiration. … At times I feel certain I am right while not knowing the reason. When the eclipse of 1919 confirmed my intuition, I was not in the least surprised. In fact I would have been astonished that it turned out otherwise. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.”

We seem to take it very much case by case. Running efficiency augments are controversial. Drugs are verboten. But better bicycles are OK, and football players can wear eyeblack and grip-enhancing gloves.

The closer a sport is to pure human performance, though, the more sensitive we seem to be about it. Perhaps out of a sense of continuity through the ages. Yeah, we train better than Athenian athletes. But we still run the same way with the same air and the same gravity.

I'm not terribly worried about stunting development of augments; it's practically the DoD's charter to develop and productize unfair advantages.
@394549, I don't doubt that they can do it, as I was also saying a couple of comments above this one. But at what price? The difference is that now they have big QA issues before having to maintain the 2 branches. Their software (and possibly the software team) a decade and a half ago when they were moving to Intel was in a lot better shape. Unless I'm looking at this through nostalgia goggles. :)

I also feel like we're in a bubble. There's so much capital around that even fairly weak startups are getting amply funded, and we have bubbles within bubbles (everything cryptocurrency) as investors race to get any sort of return.

But I don't trust myself to time the market at all, so most of my liquidity is in investments right now. My employment though is different. While I'd love to work at a small startup... the risk involved (not to mention the pay cut) is definitely a factor.

Speaking of, the hiring market is crazy right now. Good time to scout out a new job, if you want one.

I know a guy that abuses credit cards in a similar manner. One "feature" that many issuers in the UK offer when you take out a card is a balance transfer for a nominal fee and 0% interest. You can transfer any balance up to the credit limit from any number of source accounts to the new card - and the 0% interest period is usually ridiculous at 18+ months.

So this guy repeatedly applies for cards and rotates his balance transfers such that about £30k of his mortgage debt is carried on multiple credit cards. With a typical 2.5% APR mortgage, the interest saving is ~£750 a year which is nothing to sneeze at.

Unlucky for him, card issuers in the UK have begun winding in balance transfer terms for new customers - I'll wait to see if he starts complaining about having to pay off this enormous balance...

Source code available, or even under an open source license, does not change whether it is proprietary.

Not sure this is the best place to discuss the nuances of these terms. Essentially, they retain the IP, have shown a willingness to go after those doing things like re-implementing it, and in general should give people pause about using tech owned by them.

It's certainly not an interpretation I'd punish a CA for, the language in section 3.2.2.8 is rather ambiguous.

Let's Encrypt is running a fail-close setup for DNSSEC, so I wouldn't quite say it's too unreliable in this particular context. Still, it's quite clear that DNSSEC's complexity is getting in the way of things here. A solution just for this specific use-case would be much simpler overall, and I'm not buying into any of the other benefits DNSSEC claims to bring, so I'd rather just see it die.

There's a reasonable argument to be made that ICANN should not have sold an extremely desirable TLD like .dev to a company intending to use it internally rather than permitting open sale.

Not to mention that it was well-known to be commonly used for internal domains at other organizations, and they then intentionally acted to break everyone's internal workflows on a global scale. It'd be kind of like if ICANN went and sold .local (which Windows servers default to as internal domains.) The other correct option for ICANN was just to refuse to sell .dev and mark it as an internal use only TLD.

It all comes down if you believe in timing the market.

I know that the best advice is to not time the market, and simply invest in the long term, riding through the market depressions.

That being said, a couple of my friends managed to successfully time the market for 2000 and 2008. Basically, they remove their money more or less 8-10 years after the end of the last depression, and add it back in as soon as it looks like it is going to go up again.

I believe it is more luck than skills though.

Hiring freeze? If only we were so lucky. Imagine half the tech companies around you straight up folding, and the other half laying off half their workforce. Now imagine you're part of this huge sea of newly shit canned developers and there are NO jobs available anywhere. That was pretty much 2001 for me.

It was to the point where I honestly thought this whole internet fad had come to an end and I picked the wrong career path. A very large amount of people I know left the field altogether because they couldn't find work in tech.

So he wouldn't dig it out during the day. Only at night. Helicopters would roam around at night specifically to find diggers at night with their lanterns and lamps looking for gold.

I fought for a refund from Valve for about a week. Couldn't get one. I'm still a bit salty about it.

I forget how many tens of hours I'd spent expecting to arrive at anything resembling what was alluded to in the trailers or demos. It was probably 20+ hours until I realized that the problem wasn't related to progression-locked content. I'd been swindled. No. More than that. I'd been robbed.

I was mad. Sure. But I was more hurt and disappointed than anything. I can no longer trust Hello Games or Valve. Hello lied to consumers and Valve, from my perspective, backed them up while allowing a select few to actually recieve refunds for the sake of PR.

I understand the desire to protect Developers from unrealistic backlash. You've got to draw a line somewhere which, after crossing, makes one ineligible for the normal refund process. I do think the placement of that line should vary by game (or at least genre) instead of the two hour hard cutoff Valve uses.

For a game like No Man's Sky? At the two hour mark I was still taking in some of the visuals and geeking out about what I thought was coming. I definitely hadn't gotten into any of the completely broken mechanics, lack of depth of characters/worlds, or any other out of a plethora of disappointments and outright lies Hello had baked into the game and its marketing.

So now, for most things, I refuse to pre-order. I might miss a few neat things that I would have gotten otherwise, however; I won't get robbed again.
I wasn't aware of that, thank you!
