The problem with with this approach is that you're only considering time to first byte, which is part of the equation especially in the case of smaller files like scripts, but in case of larger files like video segments, throughput is more important. If you only wait for 1kB to download, then you essentially measure time to first byte.

Then the instruction to stop the download is not instantaneous, so by the time you realize you have downloaded 1kB on the client side, the server might already have sent the whole video segment on the other side, so this is not the way to go in order to optimize congestion
It's a framework of ideas, so the "exactly" is hard to pin down if you're asking about how to do it. At the core, the idea that Privacy (like security and many other concerns) should be considered from the first steps of a product instead of being retrofitted after the design process. The latter leads to questions like "How can we make practice X more secure/more private?", when the better answer might be "X isn't a good idea, how can we achieve the same goal differently"

I don't remember the actual source, so it might just be a funny anecdote.

But I remember reading that after WW2 a lot of US companies were expanding and looking for new headquarters. They'd commission huge research teams to find the best location for the new headquarters, spend a lot of time and effort to find a good place.

A book written about 10 or 15 years after many of these companies found that almost invariably the result of the research placed the best location within a short distance of where the CEO was from/currently lived.

So what you're saying doesn't really surprise me :)
The article is WWI but here is a relevant anecdote.

I have an elderly neighbor who served in WWII.

He was on a battleship when the news came from the radio room that Germany surrendered.

In the midst of the celebrations onboard, the sea broke, and they found that they had been followed and semi surrounded by U-boats.

The submarines were also listening for news, and their commander had said not to torpedo the ship until they know if the war continues.

It hard to imagine the feeling of victory and relief combined with the feeling that one was almost sunk, and only for the goodness of the German commandeer that wasn't looking to kill indiscriminately..

He told me this emotionally, so I take his word for this, but am open to hearing from those more knowlegable about the facts if his story makes sense.
A big part is you don't know who can learn to code and enjoy it. Not everyone is cut out for it.
I sincerely wished that Rust had the simplicity of Go, but its syntax just makes me dyslexic.

The nice system programming point would be (imho) clear syntax and safety check mechanics, like the borrow checker.
And that’s why rememberance is so critical, the severity of WW1 is all too often forgotten.

Silicon Valley's Radical New Idea: Treat Employees Well
What does this built in failure recovery mean, functionally?

I mean consider e.g. some code in a standard Rails monolith raises an Exception. The exception bubbles up and is caught by a middleware that displays a status 500 page. Isn't that basically failure recovery too?
Or for the same Rails monolith, one worker process hits bad code that eats memory until it is killed by an OOM-killer. Unicorn/puma notices that the worker process is missing and restarts it. Is that more analogous? In either case the request is failed but the server pretty much "recovers", ready to accept new requests.

So what is unique about the supervised processes with built-in failure recovery approach? Or am I viewing this at the wrong level of resolution or something?

Maybe read up on countries with proper healthcare systems. The problem you describe is very much a US problem. I'm very happy with the healthcare system of my over regulated and bureaucratic country (the Netherlands): everyone pays insurance starting from less than a $100 a month (but if you don't have enough income the Government will give you the money to pay for it) and as such everyone receives healthcare without crazy bills (assuming you take medication for a medical condition).

Open Hardware devices for cheap SDR receivers
Good day! For a while, I worked on creating completely open hardware solutions (such as Antenna Mini-Whip, HF Upconverter, and etc.) used to expand capabilities and work with low-cost SDR receivers (RTL2832U). At the moment, all devices publicly available on GitHub. You can get acquainted with it and maybe find something interesting for yourself :)

In this project, I focused on the simplicity of self-assembly devices, which you can make at home. In the repository, you can find detailed assembly instructions, a list of necessary components for assembly, and Gerber files. I try to actively support the project, correct the errors found and add something new.

I disagree, strongly. Spanking can be child abuse. But it isn't always.

And yes, I was spanked. By my parents, and at least once by a babysitter. The only one I really remember was the babysitter, not because the pain was so bad, but because she not only pulled my pants down to do it (no padding to help me), but also eventually made me leave them down because I was going to get another spanking pretty soon anyway. You might regard that as abuse, but I remember it because it was unusual, not because it was so horrible. (And yes, I was being a snot to her...)

My kid is doing a presentation today about his relative who died in the Great War.

We did some research for him, and the guy had fought at Ypres twice, been part of the first gas attack, and got shipped off to Mesopotamia.

A week before the war ended, negotiations were underway but the generals decided they had to kill a bunch of Ottomans before it was too late. So our guy got sent to his death to win a war that was already won.

I just think of the waste of life. Wilfred Owen, the poet who wrote about the war, also died at the very end of the war. His stuff has done much to affect the mood surrounding WWI.
My answer is as many transactions as needed in order to never have to wait more than 24 min to have a transaction on the blockchain (without paying a fee). That means the network (in the current setup) should be at around 7tps sustained for 24 min (with mostly fee paying transactions) for your transaction to not get through.If you want to have your transaction included and confirmed quickly then you should pay a higher fee.

At its heart Apple is a hardware company and everything they do is to drive sales of hardware. An iOS developer is forced to have Apple hardware.

Telstra's major asset is a large copper telecommunications network. The government, as a matter of policy, is tearing that network up and replacing it with a publicly owned fiber network. This is not a great situation for Telstra, to say the least.

This has been going on for a while, but a hazy memory suggests there have been shenanigans afoot regarding cash compensation for the damage done - that could cause all sorts of gyrations in the share price. At any rate, the market has become so political I wouldn't read too much in to Telstra's share price without having a detailed understanding of the situation. The board is not in control of the political process.

I wouldn't say it is impossible, but it strikes me as unlikely (Though do keep in mind that I am nothing but a guy with an above average interest in history; I'm mostly throwing out my thoughts here to have them vetted by those more knowledgeable than I!)

a) To listen to the radio, the German sub would've needed to keep an aerial above water; this would create a wake which could've been observed, with obvious consequences for the sub. I doubt a commander would have taken that risk.

b) I also doubt he'd risk surfacing near a foe armed to the teeth so shortly after cessation of hostilities - what if the battleship hadn't been notified yet? Or, just as bad - if they had, but assumed the sub hadn't been, and acted accordingly, just to be safe?

c) Further, in the last days of the war, Dönitz (head of the Kriegsmarine) ordered all vessels scuttled, rather than having them fall in enemy hands. I have no idea how many submarines were still operational and on patrol come V-E Day, but presumably most would have been scuttled or headed for South America by then.

So, while I find it unlikely, I wouldn't rule it out, and would love to know more about the incident.

Yes and no. You've undermined the public expression of the status move. But pride is all over the place, from things that look like pride, to "I'm not proud like those people, I'm down to earth" - and proud of it, to (another turn of the screw) "I don't do false humility like those people".

It's the human condition to find someone to look down on to feel better about yourself. You can perhaps make people stop expressing it publicly, but you aren't likely to change hearts very much. (And when you do, you'll most likely make someone realize that having pride in that is stupid, so they'll change to having pride in something else.)
Similar case in the rates world is LIBOR fixing. It's an outdated scheme that managed to escape regulatory attention for a very long time.

I'm not sure if that ever happened.

Just a matter of time before it's reverse engineered. It's not secure by any means.

Your assessment isn't correct at all.

Telstra sold the copper network to NBN in 2014. And NBN isn't replacing that network at all. They are still using it for FTTC, FTTN and FTTB which will make up the large bulk of the NBN rollout along with HFC which they acquired from Optus.

And it's widely known in the industry that Telstra is positioning itself to potentially buy back the NBN given they recently split the company into two: Retail and Operations.

If you want to learn Morse Code I can recommend using these Anki decks:

- Pretty good but hard to start with https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/3645353967

- There are a few more Decks: https://ankiweb.net/shared/decks/morse%20code
It's been an issue long before the NBN. Even after the dot-com bust, through the ADSL roll-out era where their wholesale arm had a stranglehold on the network, plus the high speed cable network from Foxtel, they've consistently mismanaged themselves and failed to deliver for shareholders despite their incredible advantages relative to other players.

For example, the T2 float in 1999 was done at about $7.50. It took until about 2014 for the dividend yields to stack up enough that when combined with the share price, T2 shareholders could break even in nominal (not real) terms.

Telstra's management, given its position of advantage in the Aussie telco industry, has been a shambles for a lot longer than the NBN.

Trying to interest them in a Swiss Army Knife is a waste of time. If they're shopping for skill x, they'll look for the best specialist. Hirers who are metaphorically stocking up for an expedition in the unknown, or who will admit to themselves that they are already lost in the wilderness, are going to be interested in generalists.
