Also, the volcanic geology of Hawaii means you want to have a very reliable seal on the bottom of that reservoir or you will be leaking tons of salt water into the local groundwater system. Possible, as modern landfills are sealed this way, but much more expensive than a fresh water lake. Not sure it has ever been done, actually.

As for damning off a bay; that does not work so well as you would want a decent elevation drop for energy storage.

Edit: Reading over the Ludington pumped station wikipedia page, it does have a sealed bottom. It is on another naturally porous geologic setting, sand dunes, and is above the water table. Thus the need for a sealed reservoir.

I think you're misreading the parent. They are not claiming that the Commons Clause is open source in any way. They're claiming that the portions being moved to the Commons Clause are not "Redis" but rather, some "enterprise modules".

> 1/ No, Redis isn't proprietary. It's only some enterprise modules. The Commons Clause is mostly used to temporarily transition enterprise offering counterparts of OSS projects to source-available.

Redis itself remains under BSD. From the article:

> The Redis core is, and always will remain, an open source BSD license. Certain modules, however, are now licensed as “Apache 2.0 modified with Commons Clause.”

I think the parent agrees with you, explicitly referring to those modules as "proprietary" and "source available".
OK, now I think I see your point.

Either you're agreeing that you could stick proof of work into a more conventional database (not sure if that's what you mean by "You can impose a similar set of rules in any alternative solution, blockchain or not"), or you don't think the self-validating nature of a proof-of-work blockchain is interesting.

The alternative solution you describe in your first paragraph still has the flaw that a nation-state could delete all known copies of the real national database, publish a new one, and say "Here's the national git log. Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia." Someone finds a backup copy of the original and publishes it. Now, determining which one is right is basically a question of whoever shouts louder. There's nothing inherently better or worse about the fake log compared to the real one, since both follow the rules; it's a question of who you believe.

In a blockchain solution, on the other hand, the nation-state would have to say "here's the real blockchain," but either the amount of work required to produce the fake one was more than the work required to produce the real one (in which case congratulations, they win), or else it's self-disproving. Nobody has to argue whether the real one's real, because the real one by definition has the most work put into it. Unless I'm misunderstanding you, your example alternative solution doesn't have that important feature.

Myanmar obliterated all traces of the Rohingya, razing their villages, rebuilding entirely different structures on those locations, and then claiming that the Rohingya burned down their own homes and voluntarily left the country (listen to https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/14/podcasts/the-daily/myanma... for more). It's completely within the threat model of this situation that a nation-state might want to rewrite its identity database and deny that it ever happened.

Sorry if I'm still somehow talking past you.

Which constant folding will reduce to just %x.
What is wrong with purchasing a VPN that is made to provide this functionality on the cheap? i don't get why everybody has to try do it themselves. If you're worrying about tainted IPs, pay a little more for a VPN that logs. All good VPNs support connecting via openVPN at this point.
Redis Lab neither created, popularized, or own the copyright to redis. Antirez and the open source community that embraced it are responsible for it becoming a household name it is in the IT community.

And now that the open source community has done all the hard work of making libraries available in every language, fighting to get it adopted within our organizations, recommending it to our friends & peers, writing blog posts & tutorials, evangelizing it to our clients, and creating so much demand that AWS & GC both offer it, suddenly this company with ZERO responsibility for its success now wants to try and profit from an ecosystem it had no hand it creating.

I'm more than happy to pay for good commercial software that helps me run my business and have happily spent many tens of millions over the years doing so. But I'm not going to tolerate this bait-and-switch bullshit from a company that's trying to pretend it invented redis just because it employs antirez.

You can have both. Mirimir reaches the Internet using a nested chain of three VPN services. The last being IVPN, given that I work for them. But then I use private VPNs on VPS when I need to pretend that I'm not using a VPN.
> Not is God lying to you. If I "save state" in a game, and then load the state later - is that state a lie? No, it's simply how the current conditions are initialized.

The fundamental question is not "did God create man". Any religious person would believe that God created Man. Period.

The fundamental question is HOW did God create us. Current science suggests that we humans evolved from a species (the Homo Erectus). An animal that very much looked like us, but is slightly different.

We have evidence of Homo Erectus societies, tool use, fire use, and other human-like behavior.

--------

The two schools of thought are NOT Atheism vs Christianity. But between Creationism and plain-ol' Science. God can exist with science.

It is far more likely that God created us, and molded us through the Homo Erectus stage some 3-million years ago. Why would God falsely create Homo Erectus bones (anti-benevolence), when it is far more likely (ie: theologically consistent with the belief in a Benevolent God) for God to want us to believe and grow in biological science and understanding of our own bodies?

Homo Erectus existed. And modern Humans were born from them. Period. That doesn't change my opinion on God (or really, anyone's opnion)

I used to blog about my thoughts on the subject. Those posts sometimes did okay here, though I recently took that blog offline.

I think a very large piece of it is that when hetero men are sociable to further their careers ("networking"), everyone is clear what the purpose is. When a man and a woman try to build those same bonds, it rapidly becomes problematic.

I think in a nutshell, most men are hesitant to talk overly much with a woman they aren't looking to sleep with because they don't want her, their wife or other people to get the wrong idea.

I find that most men don't really want to engage me in discussion unless they are hitting on me. When I try to engage them, they frequently misinterpret it as romantic interest.

I don't think most men are intentionally trying to exclude women, though some surely do. I think most men are just trying to avoid scandal of a sort that could ruin their own careers.

I don't have a ready solution.
Redis core plans to remain BSD. I honestly think this whole thread is missing this and it's incredibly crucial.

From the article:

> The Redis core is, and always will remain, an open source BSD license. Certain modules, however, are now licensed as “Apache 2.0 modified with Commons Clause.” These modules can be freely used in any application, but selling a product whose value derives, entirely or substantially, from their functionality is prohibited.

It's a nail in the coffin for maybe a few niche modules?
I have read Four Steps. Although it is meant for early-stage founders, I believe an experienced founder would learn more from it because it is experiential and exhaustive.

There are many alternatives to it for him, such as Hard Things about Hard Things by Ben Horrowitz. I am writing this to know your purpose of reading it every year.
I listen to the show a fair amount. It tends toward the "human interest" side rather than "expert interview" side. In other words, the format doesn't seem to me to have a lot of in-built preference for subject matter experts who might tend to be men for reasons beyond the show's control.

You might be surprised by the official catholic position on evolution. There take on evolution for instance is:

> Concerning biological evolution, the Church does not have an official position on whether various life forms developed over the course of time. However, it says that, if they did develop, then they did so under the impetus and guidance of God, and their ultimate creation must be ascribed to him.

That isn't evolution via natural selection, that's evolution via gods hex editor altering the genome, they explicitly reject natural evolution:

> While the Church permits belief in either special creation or developmental creation on certain questions, it in no circumstances permits belief in atheistic evolution.

They also believe in a literal Adam and Eve:

> The story of the creation and fall of man is a true one, even if not written entirely according to modern literary techniques. The Catechism states, "The account of the fall in Genesis 3 uses figurative language, but affirms a primeval event, a deed that took place at the beginning of the history of man. Revelation gives us the certainty of faith that the whole of human history is marked by the original fault freely committed by our first parents"

Catholics are creationists, just not of they young earth variety.

> You'll excuse me but your comment come off as if you don't trust the government and any regulation to achieve its goal. It's almost a satirical US view.

Although it's true that I'm generally skeptical of this form of regulation, primarily because there's plenty of evidence of its ineffectiveness, in addition to plenty of undesirable unintended consequences, I'm not categorically against [1] regulation.

More importantly, I fear you've missed some nuance, in your haste to apply that uncharitable characterization.

Even if the regulation is successful in its goal, that goal still differs from my own.

In this situation, I want neither what (I think) the regulation purports to achieve, nor what it actually achieves.

> The regulations works fine here.

I'm sure you think that, because that's what you're accustomed to, if I may paraphrase your earlier comment.

> It's simple and it's much better than not having any inspections or inspections run by the repair shops.

You say this, but you don't back it up with credible evidence or even reasoning.

I'm not, of course, suggesting that prohibiting any inspection would be better, merely not requiring the "simple", mandated process you've described. I've explained why it's worse than buyer-chosen inspection.

You certainly haven't explained why inspections run by repair shops would be worse, other than alluding to a conflict of interest. As I mentioned, I only saw such a conflict with the seller, not me, the buyer.

> It ensures that problems can be detected and acted upon.

This is an example of a goal that I don't have. An arbitrary definition of "problem" on someone else's car I, at best, don't care about.

> The seller should provide the history with the cars, although there is no legal requirement for it.

If it's not included/mandated, then it's safe to assume it's not going to happen (often enough that it cannot be relied upon). "Should" doesn't enter into it. It means that the forced repair prior to certification is tantamount to a cover-up. This is an example of, at best, an unintended consequence, and certainly a goal I don't want.

> The few expensive tasks like the belt are definitely things to watch out for both parties.

That was neither a particularly expensive example, nor is it particularly rare. Clutches and suspensions can easily be more expensive and have the same OOM of wear-out time, for example. Their remaining life is also generally unknowable from inspection, so proxies that are visible, like the timing belt, are critical to me.

As I said, the repair-before-certification part of the inspection process can make it impossible for me, the buyer, to "watch out".

[1] Trust is an entirely different matter. It has to be earned. Better yet, don't resort to trust in the first place or "trust but verify". We can measure outcomes of regulation. There's no excuse for me (considering myself intelligent, informed, and scientifically-minded) blindly accepting "trust us! we know what's good for you!" from any group of humans, be it politicians, civil servants, corporations, or individuals.
I use mobile a lot. Voice to text very frequently.

Having conversations here, elsewhere, is not worth the same level of investment as other writing can be.

In casual conversation, content, the ideas, intent are primary. Those have very high value. Minor gaffes, grammar and other bits?

Near zero.

Not everyone can roll that way.

Oh well. I won't tell anyone what to do, but will suggest the idea of taking conversational writing differently than formal writing will yield dividends.

Has for me.

In this case, a greater cost is now present in the form of a meta discussion that does not add any real value otherwise.

Inefficient, and can be offputting.

I advise you to take care, and take it easy where you can. Bet your ass I am.

It's an interesting experience listening to '90s hits now that they are oldies. I certainly enjoy them a lot more now than then, and looking inside my soul I can guess at three reasons:

1. Pure nostalgia.

2. The selection effect.

3. I've grown more tolerant. I now happily (though not ecstatically) bop along to songs which I hated back in their heyday. Ice, ice, baby...

Probably (3) is actually partly nostalgia as well. But it is also that I am not as caught up in the petty jealousies and genre-fan-feuds that I had been as a lad.
It’s worth mentioning that it is not, nor does TrailOfBits pretend, that the goal of this project is privacy; it is security. Algo doesn’t and couldn’t care less about your privacy once you reach the endpoint, only about securing the tunnel.

You shouldn’t use Algo if you are concerned about surveillance from corporations/governments, you should use Algo if you are concerned about surveillance/attacks from your local network or ISP.
There has been an ever increasing creep of undefined behaviour, which has broken existing code - type punning through unions was literally the “correct” mechanism for type coercion, which then became invalid when they established new, questionable, type aliasing rules that rendered it UB. The new type aliasing rules also mean that you can’t implement memcpy/memmove/bzero/memset without hitting UB. That requires hacks in the spec treatment of type aliasing to work around. Hell, even Malloc/free technically is UB due to type aliasing.

Obviously there is signed integer overflow, which has resulted in numerous security flaws for questionable performance gains.

Then there are other fun things, like technically it is UB for bzero to skip padding bytes in a struct (because that is UB), which means bzero(&somestruct, siseof(somestruct)) is not technically guaranteed to clear all of the struct, so I hope there’s not any secrets in left over memory.
> calories in -> calories out is the only factor in weight gain/loss aside from uncommon hormonal issues.

This is not the case. A helthy person could eat a diet of same energy content and, and end up more or less fat, dependent of what the food was.

Also, it's worth noting, that insulin resistance is in fact a hormonal issue, though a common one. Insulin regulates fat metabolism.

But the main flaw in the "calories in, calories out" meme isn't correctness - the main flaw is that it focuses on the wrong thing. Our food consumption is driven by our feeling of satiety and other hunger regulating hormones. It's possible to eat less than your body wants to by exerting willpower, but it's not sustainable for the vast majority of people.
I've been using VPN services for over a decade. In my opinion, the most privacy friendly are AirVPN, Insorg, IVPN, Mullvad, Private Internet Access and Riseup. To my knowledge, HideMyAss, EarthVPN, IPVanish, PureVPN and WANSecurity have violated their users' privacy. For the most part, by sharing logs with investigators. Prudent providers make damn sure not to have any logs that could be seized.
True. I wonder if now, six years later, more older music, not just the biggest hits, has been digitized as well, so that the sample does not skew so heavily.
