Shouting is a horrible analogy since shouting is forcing itself on others wether they want to listen or not. "Being available to be spoken/listened to" is more accurate.

You also need to remember that the places we're talking about are de facto public spaces due to their practical monopolies on speech. They are private spaces legally and the companies who own them can be as discriminatory as they want in regards to who they allow to speak from a legal standpoint, but they shouldn't abuse their power to do so.

If they do discriminate too much, they should be regulated to be neutral places for speech, considering their excessive clout. A future where a select group of companies control what people hear, discuss and think is scary.

The Origin of Synthetic Papers
I thought about a similar system but based on cryptography.

The telecoms regulators for each country would act as a CA and have their root key capable of signing anything for that particular country code, and phones would have all of them in their trust store (it could be all managed by the GSMA or something).

They would in turn issue certificates to any telecoms company that has number ranges allocated - those certs allow signing of calls for any of the number ranges the cert is for, as well as signing further certs. The telecoms company will in turn issue certificates for their customers for their assigned number only. It could be placed on the SIM card or distributed by email (perfect security isn’t needed here - “good enough” is all that’s required).

When a phone places a call it signs it with its certificate and the current date & time (to avoid replay attacks), and any equipment in the call path can verify the chain of trust all the way back to a trusted CA before relaying the call.

As the user still holds the end certificate, legitimate caller ID spoofing is still possible by them, but not anyone else.

Do you really consider (D) and (R) to be a choice? Would you like Coke or Pepsi?
Platform businesses aren't public commons, they're businesses, which means they're free to pick-and-choose winners and losers arbitrarily, if they so desire.

OTOH if controversial content creators want the freedom to publish, fundraise and engage audiences, it behooves them to prefer audience-funded, almost-anything-goes platforms that will cater to all forms of legally-protected speech. Otherwise, they're asking for trouble in the form of arbitrary silencing.

Cultural fascism, whereby people are censored because their legal speech is unpopular, is a path towards totalitarianism and civil war.
You're just going to ignore the remaining 2/3 of the post where I said the following?

>You could buy used equipment for a family of 5 for under $1000. Check out craigslist in some mountain towns, you can find higher end equipment that's a only a few years old for dirt cheap.
As I understand it, a big part of the challenge that is mitigated by technological advancement is nutrition. It is incredibly difficult to carry enough calories with you to support the journey. Colin's food supply was largely custom made by a nutrition company named Standard Process.

I agree with the author's premise, and would go even go further and say that nothing should ever be able to steal focus from a user's active application. Ever. In any OS.

if yoi try to tie low latency or algorithmic strategies to volatility, you need to be able to explain multiple years of really low volatility despite all those strategies going on.
I know what you mean but it wasn't funny when I was recording my kid at his first birthday party and got interrupted by a robocall just seconds before he cut the cake. From that day, I've learned to put the phone on DND mode before recording anything memorable.
Most people don't live in SF, the rent is ridiculous. I doubt they contribute to much to the so called culture, nor the engineers have time to enjoy much of the existing culture anyway.
This is a start but will be useless unless how these published prices are arrived at are regulated so they can’t be gamed behind discounts, copays, deductions, insurer discounts, tacked on items, etc. It’ll be like buying a mattress and trying to do price shopping.

The published prices will need to have a readily useful and predictable meaning and interpretation.

The opposite is the case. New components are typically written in Go on the backend, Rust in the sync engine and the respective native toolchains on mobile platforms.
Seattle has the 1/3rd largest homeless population and the city wanted a $500 per employee tax from amazon. Amazon said they’d move their business and also haulted construction on new building. 40k employees, that’s 20million a year. They then lobbied and got it repealed after city lowered to $250/employee.

He than turns and donates millions/billions ONCE, but that’s specks of sand compared to what would be generated over time yearly and consistently.

So... no faith in that city either and no faith in tech in general. Super sad.
Privacy and hacking, but also mental and social health, road safety, and potentially radiation danger. Mobile devices are sort of a Faustian bargain.
Depends on the carrier. Proper equipment should be like “WTF? This is obviously spoofed” and reject the call but then again the entire telco industry is fucked up.
People who exercise recover from depression, definitely.

For these reasons and more:

- If you get outside consistently you will start facing reality from a different perspective. (being at a desk or closed office constantly sucks and contributes to mental and emotional atrophy)

- You start getting free endorphins that will make you feel better instantly.

- Also you relieve stress and pressure by burning energy.

If you mix that with travel, example running in a different place, town, country, it makes wonders.
Yeah, fair point. I didn't even think to challenge him on that. Technically it's not undisputed given that DeepMind hasn't made it available for any kind of "fair fight" organized outside of its own office. I'm guessing AlphaZero would still win, assuming DeepMind isn't literally faking data, but the only way to be sure is a match between A0 and SF 10.

FYI, Leela Chess Zero is the open-source project inspired by AlphaZero, and they recently did a match against SF 10, details here: https://lichess.org/blog/XA7juREAAC4AxZsR/deathmatch-leela-v...
Maybe if you turn that url into a hash, than just use the hash to check if the package has a local copy already, it wont be so bad. But you will need to add the package version in the URL so that you know you will always have the package you really want in your local cache.
I liked that medium post, because I'm also one of those people who said goodbye to a number of friends who had moved away - until I decided I've had it with this town, too, and it's time to move away as well.

But the post throws a bunch of softballs. It mentions rising costs, hipster drinks, etc. And yes, the _relentless_ costs are a huge factor. But it's not just the costs that changed, it's the entire tenor of the place. The focus on money, valuations, investments... it's like working for Wall Street, with all the nonsense and none of the benefits of being in NYC. And a lot of people are looking at themselves and asking: is this what I want to do with my life? (Except for those who did...)

But on the plus side, moving away is not such a bad thing. Unlike what the post author suggests, the transplants will not "ruin" other cities. At least not the large ones: Pittsburgh, Chicago, Boston, NYC, there are great cities out there with a fun tech culture, much more housing (so it's cheaper), and they've been absorbing newcomers for a hundred years without any danger to their existing culture. (I'll leave Austin and Portland out of it - they might be too small to survive a mass migration of Californians. ;) )
The lack of ability to do anything about it is probably why you don't hear much about it, but a lot of the people who were affected by it are still salty. One thing that you didn't mention though, is that the info included a ton of info about non government people. The background investigation forms include names, addresses, contact information, etc., for the families, friends, co-workers, and neighbors, of people who worked for the government. The hack was a trove of information that could be used in social engineering attacks against anyone who was within 1-2 degrees of separation of anybody that worked with or for the government.
The horror. The horror.

With SIP enabled you are still free to load arbitrary “signed with an Apple-approved signature” kernel extensions, so I don’t see why your technique wouldn’t be possible. You’re natively executing most of the code and intercepting syscalls either way, so I doubt there would be much of a difference in performance. I haven’t done anything serious with noah but it’s been relatively performant.
I think there is fairly large difference between learning and being able to write production ready code. It's hard to imagine a person for whom Rust is hard to learn and who can write safe threaded code in C++ for example.
I'm amazed that Boeing isn't the focus of more - much, much more - criticism. It seems clear to me they are vastly more culpable than the pilots or airline.
The future of Kubernetes (for some interesting use cases), is virtual machines. For the rest of us the virtual kubelet project represents a bridge between Kubernetes and Serverless.

I'd much rather pay my cloud provider to run my k8s workloads (billed by pod requests/limits) than pay for a control plane and three nodes just to run my workloads.

amen. At first i figured containers were a good way to run code with difficult dependencies and weird operating environments, but that still doesnt make sense.

- systemd and uwsgi for example play well when run as a single user per wsgi application under a single nginx/lb.

- php-fpm already handles a ton of overhead from php apps.

- ansible deployments called from gitlab-ci can roll out apps just as well as deploying from the registry.

then i figured maybe they were on to something with the autoscaling thing...but that seems like a meaningless feature. Every good project already has metrics and forecasting...it would be absurd to think a final product like imgur.com or twitter does not know (down to the byte) how much storage theyll need in 4 months and the potential drivers.

auto-scaling infrastructure just betrays the fact that most developers throw resources at load problems instead of waiting for ops to figure out the actual issue.
Interesting. I wasn't aware of either GGP or the fact that there was work at Stanford on this topic. Thanks for sharing!
Yogi Bera said it best. "Nobody goes there anymore, it's too crowded."
That’s just not true — consequences for not having their children vaccinated are legislated lots of places; the arguments against anti-vaxers are often appeals to the same authorities that happily over-prescribed opiates and based around shaming them; etc.

>With that being said, I drove across the US two years ago and if you keep your eyes open you realize it is all over - Portland and Seattle are no better, just less talked about.

It's not that it's not talked about, it's that other cities manage to not have it right in the middle of the city.
Out of legal necessity; see this comment from HN user bitcrazed, who worked on WSL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13697918
Yeah, maybe. But I also think it’s cool to see humans push the boundaries on physical and mental limitations in these types of ways.
I don't understand the concern here. We're not saying Colin didn't cross Antarctica, are we?

So it seems like a hypothetical: "If someone takes Ted's Shortcut in the future, will that still count as crossing Antarctica?"

Maybe it will count, maybe it won't. But I'm happy to let those future people decide.

One thing we do know... If they take the shortcut, they won't get a photo like this:

There's a lot of research into this. If you're curious you can Google around for transfer learning and one shot learning.
For starters, I think newcomers should look at the core languages more. It's a great way to develop a (shared) mental model, rather than do so independently, reinventing the wheel and then maybe finding that yours disagrees with others'.

But even discounting that, I think it's still meaningful. Sugar is easier to deprecate; The desugaring can be used to remove deprecated sugar in the wild too. Core language complexity is a lot harder to eradicate.
It seems perfectly legitimate for Amazon to question how much the extra $10 million would actually help. If homelessness could be solved just by throwing money at the problem, SF and its $40k per homeless person would be clean as a whistle.
You can switch apps while in a call.
Ask HN: How do you do yearly review and planning?
I'm glad you're interested. We really should write progress report blog posts or something, similar to Dolphin emulator or RPCS3. Yes, the Xcode command line tools should work for the most part when running in Darling. If you try to use Darling for development please create issues on our GitHub if an individual tool crashes or otherwise fails to work.

Unfortunately, git doesn't work at the moment, however this can be worked around by using Linux git since Darling works in your Linux home folder.

One cool thing that works is lldb, which for the most part fully works.

Darling also supports mounting disk images and installing .pkgs, which is really helpful.

In short, we support most of what you can do from Terminal already.

Homebrew and MacPorts currently don't but once we get them working they should make it easier to install packages in a Darling prefix.

We also have binary compatibility with standard Mach-Os from macOS.

Unfortunately, the other project members (around four of us) and me are often busy with our lives and don't always have the time needed to advance Darling, so we are exploring how we can improve outreach to attract more developers.

While we are similar to the WINE project in goal, at the moment we have nowhere near the resources they do, so it is difficult to accomplish our goals.
How would someone without an Appke device or AppleID get in touch with you realtime? If all friends and family are already part of the Apple ecosystem, then okay for now, but you also would basically be filtering your communications to only people that fit that description in the future, as well.
Oh, Flying Spaghetti Monster for all his pasta goodness, I wish we could stop this trope.

San Franciscans, Californians in general, and "transplants" writ large did not cause this problem. We did it to ourselves with quite a few different inputs.

Ultimately what people who live here--in Seattle, I mean--is that we cannot stop new arrivals from, well, arriving. Freedom of movement is a right in the United States so they're coming, whether we like it or not. And that means we have to scoot over a bit, make a little room, and say hi to our new neighbors. That we've not done that is a huge reason why our arts, our humanities, and our not-white-collar-professional jobs are all decamping to the next cheap place.

However, it's not just housing. Seattle is a city having to go it almost alone trying to fix all of the region's ills, from traffic to mental health to substance abuse to tents on WSDOT's medians. It's not something Seattle can do alone and it's not a burden Seattle taxpayers should bear all by ourselves.

But it's also not the fault of the new arrival from San Francisco. She has a reasons to suspect we'd have our act together, and we've failed her just as much as we've failed the person who winds up in a tent next to the onramp to highway 520.
I feel like this is a common sentiment: San Francisco is beautiful in the abstract, but disgusting in detail. I feel like this is a pretty common trope for most "grade A" cities—someone will always hate it, people who love it will always explain it away.

- NYC is expensive and has failing transportation, but people love the unparalleled cultural diversity and gritty tenacity of the city

- Paris is dirty and unfriendly, but the city's romance and character make it a great place to live

- London is expensive and out of touch, but its job opportunities and multiculturalism make it a better place to live

...and so on and so forth.

Someone's always going to dislike SF for a valid reason and someone's always going to hit you back with a valid reason why it's a good place. They're probably both correct.
Im sure it has a useful function if it's operating on good data, but when it has bad data it can kill 189 people.

I don't really know just how unstable the aircraft is without this automation, but it seems like it would be better to warn the pilots they need to manually manage their trim, then send them crashing into the ocean.
How many minutes would it take to make 1 copy?

How much would a person be compensated for producing that 1 copy?
It doesn’t work. Only honest callers would follow this. In addition, looking up a number in there is paid which is less than ideal. The service itself is already an inconvenience to its “target market” (aka telemarketers or robocallers) so at least you should make it as easy as possible to use it.

I actually worked on a lawful telemarketing operation a few years back (don’t ask - desperate times called for desperate measures) and paying for TPS lookups was both a surprise and a huge problem.

The only reason it seems like it works is because the US is a much juicier market for the scammers so most don’t bother with the UK, but I still see people occasionally getting tech support scams or similar so clearly there’s nothing actually preventing them from spamming the UK - for now it’s just that the US is a bigger fish.
For vanilla references (&), Rust will prevent you from having multiple mutable references. Beyond that, there are several types in the stdlib[0] that progressively increase flexibility, but always safely.

I think it's bad advice because you need to know what is potentially dangerous. That alienates newcomers to systems programming (which is why one of Rust's goals is to be able to "hack without fear"). There are also some designs that I'd never try to build without safety checks, because they're notoriously hard to get right. Even knowing the fundamentals of memory safety, without a way of enforcing lifetimes and mutability, writing zero-allocation implementations that share immutably can be daunting.

It's a very interesting hypothesis, but I hope that either the journalist misinterpreted the study, or I misinterpreted the journalist with

> In fact, he found that the more cherubic a black CEO’s face, the higher his salary—and even his company’s revenues.

I hope the study controlled for firm revenues when evaluating the effect of facial features on salary. It's difficult to both simultaneously control for revenues and also attribute causation on revenues. I can imagine several plausible mechanisms (maybe a teddy bear face reduces power struggles within the C-suite) by which the face affects revenue and this in turn drives salary. I have no doubt that the salary differences remain after controlling for revenues, and there's some bidirectional causality, but the journalist's phrasing suggests to me a direction of causality that may not be warranted.

TLDR;

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s constituency includes the whaling port of Shimonoseki, and he has also come under pressure from lawmakers in his Liberal Democratic Party whose electoral districts include whaling or dolphin-hunting communities.

As a move from environment loving developed nation, this is quite repulsive.
While the use of namespaces seemed a bit discounted in the article, I think part of the problem is that it's an underutilized and poorly conveyed feature, but maybe that's just me? I'd like to see a better out-of-the-box vanilla K8S user management interface in the dashboard. Maybe the default UX on cluster creation is a user/service account that isn't cluster admin that is limited to 1 or more namespaces. There should be a better dashboard to configure and create users that is front and center when you first create a cluster. You have to work a bit to get something you can use to authenticate as cluster admin like role. This should help direct people towards creating more users and isolated namespaces.
I don't think these problems are related to tech. Metro areas that engage in these policies--tech or no--have had the same problems. NYC in the 70s to 80s was the same boat and had dramatic turnarounds during the Giuliani tenure.

An article I read recently (https://www.city-journal.org/seattle-homelessness)

> According to the Puget Sound Business Journal, the Seattle metro area spends more than $1 billion fighting homelessness every year. That’s nearly $100,000 for every homeless man, woman, and child in King County, yet the crisis seems only to have deepened, with more addiction, more crime, and more tent encampments in residential neighborhoods.

That statistic should shock people who think that the problem is insufficient government spending or a type of rabid, rich eating the poor Dickensian dystopia.

That article also mentions "pathological altruism", which roughly translates into paying $ for guilt in a way that harms the people who are supposed to be helped. It's sad too, because most tech workers I know would not advocate behaviors/policies for themselves that they advocate for the homeless. Any tech startup that basically was content with no standards, endless spending, and no accountability in the corporate or personal sphere would be bankrupt.

"To the angry locals of Portland, Seattle, Denver, New Orleans, Kansas City, Phoenix, Austin, and elsewhere, please hear this defense: The Californians who are coming in and “ruining” your cities are not snobs. They don’t have trust funds. They aren’t entitled. They are the opposite."

That may be true, but I've met too many people who sold a one-bedroom garden shed in California for $1.2B and moved to a shiney new 11,000 square foot mcmansion in Hyde Park. They're just passing the ruin along.
How about people in your contact list get to call and text you for free and everyone else has to pay 10 cents? Telecoms definitely have the tech to do such billing. They could even take a cut. 9 cents for me and 1 cent for the telecom. This would solve almost all spam immediately and would be a long term solution.
