Not at all to try giving any lesson on the matter, but using membrane is a modern (and cheap) way to solve an issue that the Romans some 2000 years ago had solved in a much "cleaner" way.

In Italian it is called "scannafosso", this is the "modern" (and cheap and "wrong") way:

https://www.coffeenews.it/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/scannaf...

and this is how it was done traditionally (as said since Romans times) and "right":

https://www.coffeenews.it/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/scannaf...

The idea is that the walls must be permeable and areated, the membrane keeps the outside rain/water/humidity outside BUT it also keeps the internal humidity/vapour inside which is a good start for moulds and similar, and in any case it is definitely not healthy.

BTW the effect is not entirely dissimilar to what happens (hopely happened as nowadays it is more rare that new houses are built without appropriate ventilation) in modern houses built along "energy efficient" rules, any house in an energy class better than D (C, B, A and A+) without a mechanical air ventilation system is simply and plainly unhealthy for its occupants.
At least in the gamedev area, there's infinite number of games to build (the same way there's infinite amount of novels to write and songs to compose).
What isn't really helping adoption of IPv6 support now is attitude of some ISPs.

There are ISPs that use migration to IPv6 as a way to tighten their reign over users. They will give you DS-lite only (ok...), but with /64 (no /56, no /48). They will force their router on you, where in past with IPv4 they would provide an option for bridge. Their router cannot do PD (if it had more than /64, so maybe that's the reason why they do not provide that), so if you want a virtual net with VMs on your machine, you are going to waste your time playing around with IPv6 NAT, which doesn't work correctly anywhere. You can't control RA/DHCPv6 on the router, you cannot really control firewall rules. Suddenly, the ISPs has ony free reign over your network, but also over policies on your network.

So for undemanding users that's fine, it will work with Facebook and Netflix. For a power user, the IPv6 offer is unacceptable, not because of IPv6 properties, but due to limiting implementation that the ISPs force.
Great advice. I also think it will work in every situation - from leaders and to leadership.
Careful about loaded words like "artificial". Arguably, in an hypothetical free-market, I would be able to sue every ICE car owner for the crap they push into my body and property. Let's see how popular they would be without that artificial legal protection.

That aside, why are the costs less-bad? It's not like they'll stop making cars, it's just a different drivetrain. I'm sure there will be costs to the transition, but how do you figure they are worse than the external costs?
Of course I expect to see the call tree, and to flip between that and a flat view, to flip between different metrics in the views, and to see them across processes/threads. I'm talking about graphical tools (perhaps coupled with external reduction of the data) like CUBE [1], Paraprof [2], and those in toolsets like Open|Speedshop [3] and HPCToolkit [4] with which I'm less familiar.

Banning non-electric cars (except for public transport, police, ambulances, etc) in biggest cities is hardly going to have societal costs. You can argue personal cars should be banned there altogether. There are many cities where private transport is already restricted in city centers.

Public transport is cheaper, more ecological, saves time for everybody in traffic jams. What's the cost? That you have to drive to work or school with other people in same vehicle? You will get used to it. I have to die earlier because of all the shit that's in the air and car industry doesn't care.

And that's just the first step, then you can tax internal combustion engines increasingly.

As for the car industry - who cares? It's not like we cared about horse industry when cars appeared. Let them adapt or die. Government should protect citizens, not corporations.
Well, they sure missed the dis* prefix
> Tunnels are garbage. You should either switch ISPs, or complain and wait.

While the HE tunnel is somewhat limited (does it peak at 50 Mbps?), I find it's implementation way better than some ISPs that provide native IPv6.

HEnet at least provides more than single /64, and does not force a specific, limited router on you.

NAT, including CG-NAT really provides no security benefits. Too many comments, blogs, etc, have been written on this topic for me to reiterate the specifics here.

NAT, including CG-NAT, provides near zero privacy benefits. Nobody is tracking by IP address - there are far, far, far, more accurate ways, again, I won't reiterate all the ways this happens, Google it (or is the TLS session resumption one still on the front page as one example?)

NAT, and CG-NAT provide real drawbacks. Drawbacks most people won't understand, and that's OKAY. Not everyone
needs to understand them, but when you don't understand something, please don't advocate for it with specifics like "happy with CG-NAT because of the security and privacy benefits", instead, just leave it as, "happy with CG-NAT, I don't see any drawbacks".

He's saying "We don't give a fuck about Dwayne Johnson, we only care about government regulations."

It is true that according to IARC, glyphosate may cause cancer. So does coffee. In Johnson's trial, the plaintiff originally alleged that the glyphosate in Roundup caused the cancer. When the defense demolished that claim using actual scientific studies, the plaintiff moved the goal posts. Maybe it's not the glyphosate, maybe it's the solvent, or the surfactant. Or it's actually a synergystic effect of all three.

Yeah, right. That's, like, a totally proven link.

How to Block Someone on EBay
I've never tried it myself, but I don't think it sounds impossible. Realistically, the greatest single stimulus for traders is the curve itself. So it would stand to reason that there would be patterns to its movement, since people and machines expect there to be patterns.
It looks nice. What I like about procedural generation is the great freedom in design. It's a great opportunity to tackle the problem of managing complexity in a visually rewarding way.

There is the top down approach where you start laying out the road networks, it defines neighborhoods, which you split up into individual houses. It can be made as nice as the programmatic time you are willing to invest, ultimately it's realistic, but quite repetitive and boring.

There is the scoring based approach where you get points when certain type of building are near other type of buildings. Then you optimize more or less. Quite often it's not as repetitive and boring, but not very realistic, so you can add some statistic matching penalties to make it more realistic (eventually using neural networks like GAN).

There is the more ambitious and computer-intensive bottom-up approach, where you start defining the rules of the game (like a sim-city generator) and have your city evolved by playing the game eventually from the point of view of the various agents in the game. The city will have a more organic feel and look. By defining the right rules, you can even witness some emergent behavior. You have less control but it'll give you a world deeper than it looks.

Infinitely and beyond
This highlights how far the US is lagging behind in terms of Internet access and cost. Paying 60$/month or more for mediocre speeds is common even in major urban areas, due to the lack of competition. I live in the heart of Boston and only have one ISP I can buy service from. And there is no mobile alternative that offers (truly) unlimited, fast, and affordable data.
I actually find IPv6 simpler than IPv4. It is extra address space plus some warts fixed.

However, at home I'm using IPv4 + henet tunnel, because the native IPv6 offer from the ISP is unacceptable. At work, we are using IPv4 only, and no plans to switch, because it would be extra work with zero benefits.
>> They do not account for unusable IPv4 addresses due to subnet structures, of which there are probably some within the theoretical IPv4 space available to a provider

Trader A makes $10m in year 1 and gets a $1m bonus. She loses $10m in year 2, and gets no bonus so the firm is down her $1m bonus.

Trader B makes $1m in years 1 and 2. That’s too low to trigger a bonus, but his firm is up $2m.

The system doesn’t reward trader B so he has to choose: do what’s right for the firm, or take big risks in the hope of a bonus

India is quite well known for its price sensitive consumers. Jio has recognized and tackled that exceptionally well. Only today, on its 2nd anniversary, it announced even more free offers for its subscribers.

Yes, he is the game changer when it comes to bringing fast and cheap internet in India (along with unlimited calls, data, 'national roaming' etc.). Unlike some countries like US, national roaming wasn't really free in India until Jio happened. So much that it forced every other telecom company in India to have similar plans (at least close to that) even if that meant huge downfall in their profit. Such is the power of Mukesh Ambani.

But, if someone is thinking the reason behind it is his philanthropy or something, forget about it. He's the biggest businessman in India, and just wants to capture all the market and all of its 'data'. Ambani wants his company to become India's Google.

That being said, thanks to him, literally (almost) everyone in India is on the internet these days.
I think democracy isn't really an engineering project - it's a communications medium. So while it seems slow and full of bikeshedding, that's because if you don't work out everything procedurally, people turn to other channels.

The chinese are really conscious of this - it's why they are investing so heavily in reducing corruption, which is the archetypal sign of people 'working around' the system.

It's possible that with new technology, they'll succeed - but traditionally, non-democratic projects don't work out because the official channels are useless, and the center doesn't know what the periphery is doing.

People will behave as long as the economy is growing, but as soon as it contracts, everybody will start turning to crime or politics.
A straw man comparison. OP is saying that they can intuitively pick up (sometimes) on unreasonable downtrends (when they occur). These happen because of historical events and market reaction to those events. The probabilities are based on dependent events in the case of the market, and on independent events in the case of a coin flip, which is a critical distinction (but does not mean that OP can predict results 100% in either case).

When it is relevant to my work and I can clearly identify a sensible benefit of going, then yes.

If I do not have meetings scheduled or opportunity to schedule ones which would otherwise be difficult to attain, I evaluate the networking value of the event.

Talks are generally always recorded these days. So if none of the above gives a clear indication that I should go, but interesting sessions are given, I just buy access to their recordings.

When at an event I tend to only go to sessions if I need to talk to the speakers or network with other attendees interested in the given topic.

I was really expecting the slice WATs to carry on to talk about what I consider a real WAT: you have to perform robust checks on your input slice's capacity and length if you use append in a function, because append makes its own choice whether the array of a slice is reused or copied.

Here's a basic demonstration:

https://play.golang.org/p/8zMmPwtjcxG

In particular, note how this behavior can easily be forgotten when the semantics are hidden through variadic arguments that are passed an existing slice (instead of the automatically created one when you pass in actual variadic arguments).

I do all my document-making in emacs with org-mode and evil (vim-mode). Seriously, it's amazing. When you are done, you are one command away from having it in markdown/pdf/latex/html/word or any other format you can imagine.

I'd love if I could have the same power for managing my todos, tasks, projects, taking notes, README writing, overall agenda with vim, but I can't, so I find it's easily worth it just to use emacs and org.

Here is an example of what you are able to do with emacs and org: https://imgur.com/a/3rTNVYE

And if you need it in markdown, you just manually export it, or set up a hook that does it for you every time the document changes.

And no, the result of the code-blocks in the screenshot is not something I manually inserted into the notes. Org runs the code and inserts the result for me automatically.
About 5 months or so ago, one of my cousins called me ( video call on whatsapp ) from one of the snow covered mountains in the himalayan range. I know its not the top of mount everest and the place does see a decent tourist traffic, but still I was surprised by the fact that he could do a clear video call from that location. THIS, compared to me, sitting on a train ( not underground! ) just 10 miles away from London and no internet ( or network ) feels very very strange.

That is when I really understood how gamechanging Jio is to India. There is nothing even closely comparable to it anywhere in UK atleast and I believe the same is true for most developed countries.

Ok, good advice, but what if someone is just not good enough? Firing someone, stopping a project, it is not the fault of the employee (not always at least). But I'm currently in a situation where I (for my first time) have to tell someone they work too slow and seem to never finish stuff properly. The guy is just not good enough and it start to annoy me because he is not taking steps to improve. I find it very difficult, it concerns an otherwise nice guy that I have coffee or beers with from time to time.

I know it's best to just say: Hey this isn't working. But I want to find a job better suited to him, I don't want him wasting my time anymore when I ask him how he did something and it seems he never put it in our git repo.
> they are investing so heavily in reducing corruption

I am extremely sceptical about such claims. Claiming to fight corruption is usually more of PR stunt. To really fight corruption you have to do institutionalized changes, such as increasing transparency, which is painful for most of regimes on Earth. Fighting corruption without changing the system is busy work and reality show.
This whole comment is two-faced.

People know what a URL is. But this issue demonstrates misunderstandings of URLs, as "www.x.y" is not necessarily an official "x.y" page.

"www" == "web address", or "m. is ridiculous" which are annoying fashions (agreed there!), but that has literally zero impact on the security characteristics, implying yet again that people do not understand URLs.

No. This comment is a perfect example of why this is not safe to do. It's throwing open the door to abuse.
