Because it sounds like anti-socialist pull-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps propaganda. It's not wholesome because it's not how things work for most people. The commenter could be very lucky or (more likely) very blind to real privileges they benefited from in their story. But their story fits a narrative that allows people to feel comfortable with their wealth while poverty is rampant around them, so such people find it "wholesome".

Probably due to the strong political and moral statement in the middle. "in Europe, the socialism makes people dead on the inside" definitely requires some justification. Without that digression it's a great comment about the potential upside that exists in America.

> If only people had free mobility...maybe everybody could just love in a place that works for them

It would be nice to have free mobility + something like a low-level UBI, for people who really need to be helped and not fall through the cracks. A rather low UBI that focused on just ensuring the basic necessities of life would most likely be quite affordable (e.g. in terms of overall tax burden, or fraction of GDP), and probably wouldn't even be perceived as "socialism". Then we'd probably see places like Europe lose a lot of their former attractiveness as they'd be left trying to manage their unwieldly, dinosaur-socialist states, as anyone with even the tiniest shred of ambition and initiative left would immediately flee for the more open parts of the world.
What an odd reaction. There;s no need to force everyone into a rabbit hutch as though we all live in Hong Kong. Most places have little or no need to build several floors up, outside of city centres.

A small house is, for most, a better and far more efficient solution for a couple than the typical property available. As the kids move on we've no need of multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. Yet most of what gets built tries to squeeze more rooms and more bathrooms and toilets than people into the same square footage.

To me, that's what needs a rethink. You'll never get us into another apartment block though.

For the elderly they also seem like they could be an ideal solution where we once built sheltered flats. Cluster a group together with small garden space, and add a warden and panic alarms. More appealing than rattling around in the old family 4 bed home.
Session ID in URL is a terrible idea because guess what, people share links with each other. Example: A school enrollment system in Finland logs you on with another person's account if they give you the link to a page they are viewing (which they often do), because the session is in the query string.
If I’m the worst member of the team because I’m not providing free labor, most definitely not a business I want to be at or a team I want to be on. Agree with your second point.

My concern are the employees who feel obligated to provide free work to keep their jobs. That’s what unions used to be for, to keep poor management practices in check, instead of a culture of fear and silent suffering.

The thing of it is I wonder if we, really, have a distinction.[b]

As this[1] article puts it: 'And it also illustrated how much people tend to anthropomorphize AI, believing that it has deep-seated beliefs rather than seeing it as a statistical machine.'

But, really, have we proved there is anything to such romantic or spiritual notions about human beings, or are we just 'statistical machines'?

Anyway, my test for an AI-generated comment: determine a measure for 'sensicalness', the higher the score (aka, more sensical) the higher the probability of non-human origin.

[1]https://www.technologyreview.com/s/610634/microsofts-neo-naz...

[b] Really, I think our definition of human comes not from the mind but from the body. That's always the definition we deploy, whether it's for or against racism or abortion or...anything else, really. Even a brain in a jar is still defined in terms of being a brain in a jar. This is probably why the internet, as was known before, will go away, will cede to the 'video-sphere', when we invented writing, (such as this message) we divorced the content from human embodiment, so we could never be sure, even all the way back then, if we were looking at something composed by man or gods or...anything.

> What about local development, where tools like tcpdump and wireshark are really handy?

You can tell browsers to dump the session keys, which then can be read by wireshark [1].

> What about devices that are power constrained?

That's thinking from 10 years ago. 10 years ago, there were no native AES extensions in power constrained devices. But now there are, so encryption is really power efficient.

> I am just spooked by tying a a text transfer protocol to a TCP system.

I guess instead of "TCP system" you meant transport layer protocol. I can actually understand your view: stuff is getting more complicated. I can fire up netcat, connecting to wikipedia, typing out a HTTP/1.0 request manually. With 1.1 this is hard and with 2.0 it's impossible due to TLS requirements. But there are reasons for this added complexity: you want to be able to re-use connections, or use something better than TCP. As long as there is a spec, and there are several implementations lying around, I think it's okay to add complexity if there is a performance reward for it. Most people care about the performance, who wants to fire up netcat to do a HTTP request.

Totally agree, cargo makes it easy. Honestly it’s just that the level of laziness is so high when I’m programming on something personal after work that even having to switch to chrome to check a version number on crates.io will be avoided.
It's worth asking why your wife doesn't switch to your job, to make 3x the salary. Either

a) she couldn't do it, in which case by extension it boils down to supply and demand, or

b) she doesn't want to do it, because she gets a whole bunch of joy from the job which is invisibly priced into compensation (and which indirectly goes back to supply and demand.)

I don't see the discrepancy as any kind of market failure.

You probably don't want to have debug tools around in prod. It's easier to install tcpdump and start looking at packets, IMO.
You are going to be using tools like tcpdump and wireshark for debugging, but can't figure out how to install a root certificate on your local machine?
Yes however the demographic diversity in the US makes it less likely for people to want to "spread it" around.

If your entire country is the population of one large US metro and everyone is the same ethnicity and culture, there are fewer cognitive impediments to being empathetic at scale.
I've always promised a refund to any customers asking in good faith. I run a podcast hosting company, and not every solution out there is right for everyone.

Most users requesting a refund made a mistake. I'm happy to refund them or offer credit, and the reputation I've built for customer support is well worth the cost. It comes out to tens of dollars a month in exchange for priceless unsolicited recommendations on social media (even from former customers and folks who haven't used the service).

There have been a few bad actors. One user demanded a refund for six months of service (we bill monthly) after finding that the service did not meet his needs. He did not receive the refund that he demanded. Of the hundred or so refunds that I issue each year, maybe one or two are not what the customer asked for.
- HTTP/1 is "1 HTTP stream over 1 TCP-ish L4 connection" (TLS-over-TCP is a TCP-ish L4 connection)

- HTTP/2 is "multiple HTTP streams multiplexed over 1 TCP-ish L4 connection"

- HTTP/3 is "HTTP over QUIC"

HTTP/3 is meant to replace HTTP/1 or HTTP/2 only to the degree that QUIC replaces TCP. In your air-gapped system, or for local development, QUIC-instead-of-TCP is less compelling.
So much negativity in this thread.

Personally I am _very_ excited by HTTP/3 (and QUIC), it feels like the building block for Internet 2.0, with connection migration over different IPs, mandatory encryption, bidirectional streams and it being a user-space library – sure, more bloat, but from now on we won't have to wait for your kernel to support feature X, or even worse, your ISP-provided router or decade old middleware router on the Internet.

I haven't had the chance to read the actual spec yet, but it's obvious that while the current tech (HTTP2) is an improvement over what we had before, HTTP/3 is a good base to make the web even faster and more secure.

HTTP/3 won't be IPv6: it only requires support from the two parties that benefit from it the most: browser vendors and web server vendors. We won't have to wait on the whole internet to upgrade their hardware.
Not unlikely, which is why I wrote somewhat vaguely. Ironically I don't have time to read your resources at the moment. My point is that there just isn't that much room for other things these days. So many things, from a $5 coffee to housing, is based on the idea that everyone is working all the time. You can of course quit working, pay the same rent and lock yourself in a room trying to forget the outside world until you can't. But I am not sure that is a road to happiness either. I mean, many people can barely achieve "weekend glory" these days.
I'm also in the UK. It was the case in those I've rented. That included one fancy river front expensive one that work rented while I was working in Docklands. In short, never again.

Maybe newer ones are better as that was back in the 90s.
What about them? Don't use HTTP/3 if you don't want encryption.

The whole point of HTTP/3 is that it doesn't treat TLS as a separate layer, that it tightly binds parts of the two protocols to allow more efficient use of time and data. It's not just an option, the protocol doesn't make sense without it. If doing encrypted HTTP isn't what you're after, then this protocol isn't for you.

> People live busy lives and trying to force someone into watching a 10 hour course RIGHT NOW otherwise they can't get a refund later on feels dirty.

Absolutely. This is something I think companies get wrong so often.

As an example, Country Road (a clothing store in Australia) offers loyalty discounts based on your purchases - $10 reward voucher per $100-249 spend, or $35 per $250+ spend. Except, those vouchers expire after 30 days.

If I've just spent $250 on clothing, I'm unlikely to make additional purchases in the next 30 days. Their reward system doesn't encourage me to buy more clothes (there is only so much I can buy in a short period of time), and it does the opposite of encouraging my loyalty - it just makes me 'bitter' that I'm missing out on rewards.
Or other countries in SEA, for that matter. The way to cross the road, as a pedestrian, in Cambodia is this: Close your eyes and, with one hand raised, walk across the road at a steady speed. Traffic will flow smoothly around you. Any attempt to avoid traffic by walking faster/slower will confuse everyone and lead to accidents.
It’s just a technique. Don’t allow for nuance but take everything to the extreme and the discussion is closed.

Most police are happy to confiscate and personally use or make use of contraband as an alternative currency.

Freelance developer, based in Europe. In my 30s, two kids and working from home.

I do work 4 days a week (+ 1 or 2 days a week working on my farm). Working from 8:30 till 4pm and having 1.5 hours break to cook for my familly and we eat together.

I guess my business hours looks short, but it consist of focused time only: no browsing web, no facebook, twitter or other social network, no calls and definitely no meetings.

Rest of my time is generaly spent with my family. I dont really do any exercise but I still manage to walk 10 a 15 kms a day + manual work on my farm.

You can register as “unaffiliated”, but depending on your state what options you have for voting in primaries depends on your affiliation.

Some states only allow you to vote in the primary for your affiliated party, others let you pick one or the other regardless, some will only let you vote in one parties if you are affiliated but the other has no such restriction. The system is a giant clusterfuck of rules, but everyone just kind of works with it for now.

Your affiliation is part of your voter registration, so it’s held by your Secretary of State’s office.
Recently in our parking garage they marked two parking lots on the corner for compact cars. I usually park quite close to these spots and I have yet to see a truly compact car parked there. I have even seen pickup trucks parked there! I once showed it to the parking lot attendant and he just shrugged and said it looked compact to him :)

How is being poor the natural state of humans? Without private property, there can be no rent consuming excess productivity. Abundance is the result of the products of labor being misappropriated by employers from their employees.

Humans have never made a single new thing, at least as far as I know. Everything created was done so out of labor being applied to land. The purchasing of people for labor has long been out of style, soon the wage slavery of owning land will go out of style as well. With the same amount of re compensation the landowners that slaveowners got after the civil war.

The core of it is a decision tree tied to a pretty in-depth database that either knows everything about the city or seeks to learn everything about the city. The system reads an event on the calendar that says "Van Halen is playing at American Brew Pub on February 12th at 7pm" and starts running running through the decision tree pulling information out of the database to fill in the blanks on the phrases it's picked.

Then it strings them all together to write something that looks something like:

>Do you have plans on Tuesday? Well now you do! Van Halen is playing at American Brewpub at 7pm! Van Halen is a local rock band that we love. They have been to our city before, but they played at Next Door Music Venue (link to the previous article for Van Halen at Next Door). This time they're playing at our favorite brewery, so you can watch the show while drinking Local IPA! Tickets are required, and you can purchase them here (link to tickets). We'll see you there!

People love these articles but they're not super fun to write every day (sometimes twice a day for the two cities), it's just routine stuff.

Basically, to make a film 'faster' you capture phonons from a larger area. Or the other way around, film that can resolve very fine details needs a lot of light.

Film has a built-in low pass filter. Typically 'sampling' in film is random enough that you can capture very fine detail if the contrast is high enough. It behaves quite differently from digital sampling techiques.

For this reason, you want to scan film at a very high resolution. But that doesn't mean that the image actually contains a huge of informaion.

Yes. The real issue is that the resentment is between givers and givers. Middle class and working poor are all being screwed over. But the wealthy takers have convinced many of the middle class that their perceived austerity is due to the lazy welfare-takers. And that the "job-givers" (i.e. wealth takers) should be lauded for the part they play.

We have a small gym at the office where I do strength training and I walk a couple miles at lunch each day.

@beamatronic- the median SFH in Reno is now over $380,000, and median household income is $58k. According to a quick housing affordability calculator, $58k will get you to a $280,000 house if you really stretch it under normal conditions.

Android Security Monthly Recap #1
If you want to see what the “lock-in” actually looks like check out:

https://github.com/nzoschke/gofaas

It’s a boilerplate Go, Lambda, API gateway, dynamo, SNS, x-ray etc app.

Personally I embrace the “lock-in”. This architecture faster, cheaper and more reliable than anything I’ve seen in my 15 years of web development.

Most importantly it is less code. Most time is spent writing Go functions. A little time goes into configuring the infra but the patterns are simple. No time goes into building infra or a web framework.

I think Go is the antidote to true lock-in.

I have a ‘Notify’ function that uses SNS that I recently replaced with a Slack implementation. With well defined interfaces you can swap out DynamoDB for Mongo if you have to move.

It is also easy to turn a function into a HTTP handler. There is a smooth path from function to container to server if the cost or performance of lambda doesn’t work. It’s hard or impossible to go the other way.

I suspect its actually older properties that are more robustly constructed - the flats we had in central Edinburgh had 1m+ thick sandstone walls and we never heard anything from neighbours.
