> exactly the same security level as NAT.

> There's a very small argument for privacy

You can't say it has the "same security", while also saying there is a "small" difference. Privacy is an integral part of security, especially for natural persons.

> we have privacy addresses

AFAIK "privacy extensions" merely pick a random host address rather than naively using the ethernet MAC (!!). This still allows identifying discrete hosts.

The NAT scheme I described is strictly better than this. So yes, I can envision an IPv6 future where we have convenient global addresses for incoming traffic, but outgoing traffic gets NATted to a single address (single probability distribution, really). It's just not going to be a return to the trustful 1970's air-out-your-genitals simplicity that is widely envisioned.

> behind NAT many of your devices are probably already identifiable in many other fingerprinted ways that obscuring the address for this sake would be pointless

Those other ways are also security vulnerabilities. We shouldn't excuse vulnerabilities because other vulnerabilities exist, especially in the direction of the foundation. While it is appropriate for a higher protocol to simply accept a weakness of a lower layer that it is built on, going the other way is unjustifiably throwing in the towel.
> What is the point in memorising a dictionary

This isn't too different from quiz shows, I guess, although information from those tend to be more applicable.

It's also probably a bit of an oversimplification to call it memorizing a dictionary, some of the learning strategy involves understanding the rules of multiple languages, their root words, word etymologies, etc.
Regarding the mysterious biennial periodicity, I dug around for naturally occurring biennial events that have a synced timing. Didn’t find much, but I did find this article specifically about biennial periodicity in measles.

“Periodicity, synchronization and persistence in pre-vaccination measles”

You hit the water at terminal velocity. Since water is effectively uncompressible, this is much like hitting concrete, I've read. You are either instantly killed or knocked out, in which case you slip underwater and drown.

I suppose hypothetically your best bet over water would be vertical entry, as opposed to the spread-eagle recommended for a land impact, but at the speeds you'll be going I imagine you're pretty much doomed regardless - even if the impact doesn't shatter you, I believe water rushes into your internal organs through your anus and causes massive damage. I've seen that referenced as a risk for bridge jumps and this is, obviously, as bad a water jump as you can make. I also imagine you'd go deep enough that you couldn't possibly float back up to the surface before drowning, and I imagine the impact and pressure of increasing depth would force all the air from your lungs anyway.

Disclaimer: I am not an expert in any relevant field. I may well have some facts wrong. Just speculating based on what little I know.
don't take this the wrong way. I believe a man would also face significant hurdles to try and get hired after not being in the field for two decades.

This has been folk knowledge in Japan for thousands of years. Rice paddies are traditionally planted in places with a propensity to lightning storms, a fact so well known that it reduces land values in suburbs built on old paddy land (there are other downsides to that land, but this is one).

Also, the word for "thunder" (雷) is written as "rain" (雨) over a "rice paddy" (田), and the word for "lightning" (稲妻) is "rice plant's (稲) wife (妻)".

Basically, what skybrian has, in a rather short way, said. As far as I have been able to find out over the years, quantum entanglement "does" operate at speeds greatly exceeding that of the speed of light, but, because of the weird properties of quantum mechanics, no "operation" that could ever be used to transfer data between two sets of particles is possible.

So while they "are" entangled, they are apparently not entangled enough in a stable way such that a change to atom A would be picked up as a new change to atom B (thus, having successfully transferred some sort of information), because the quantum state breaks down somehow.
> There, meaning working absurd extra hours in order to deliver to the client as reneging would mean I have to own up to the client the fact that I totally fucked up the scoping (usually it's scope creep or changing requirements, but you can't really blame them even if it's their fault).

The client for which I did the four 20 hour days had a project manager that committed to a milestone delivery with their client and did not run it past the dev team. So I did everything possible in order to deliver for the client.

Federer was ripping his backhand to Rafa's forehand - this is not what Federer usually does, and it unsettled Rafa. On grass, a ripped single handed backhand zips through the court and is hard to deal with.

Rafa usually runs round anything to his backhand so he can hit up the line to Fed's backhand (Fed's "weakness"). Yesterday this wasn't working due to the quality of Federer's backhand.

In all Federer was just playing too well yesterday - great game plan, executed very well. Rafa couldn't play his normal game against Federer's variety.

But great match overall. Can't believe they play like this at their age.

using these labels has to be done with care foe the desired effect. if a child thinks they are dumb, then calling them smart, and showing them hat makes them smart may be helpful to raise their self-esteem. but otherwise it may backfire.

same goes for beauty. it can have a positive effect, but it can also make the child care more about outward appearances.

I need no convincing that it is a crisis, but the crisis is probably more linked to government monetary policy than housing. The huge amount of money being created [0] hasn't appeared in the consumer inflation statistics/wage growth [1] so it must be going in to inflating asset prices.

"Just admit" what? That applying volatile to an object and casting that away like with the flag_ example is UB? Yeah, I that's UB. It also wasn't the point of the article, and the use of volatile required for the technique the article is what actually matters, which isn't UB.

Can we step back for a second?

Go back to my top comment. Why did I even post this article in the first place? The point was that "volatile-correctness" is (basically) awesome, and it's hard to get something like it in other languages. This article is where the idea originated from, so I linked to it. i.e.: "There's something called volatile-correctness, which you can learn about by reading this article." The point was not "read this article and blindly sprinkle volatile across your codebase in exactly the same manner and you'll magically get thread safety".

What were you supposed to take away from the article? The idea of volatile-correctness, the idea that you can use a locking pointer to regulate multithreaded access to a class's methods. The idea that volatile acts as a helpful type annotation in this regard, independently of its well-known effects on primitive objects. You can apply it easily without ever marking objects as volatile, like I just showed you in that example. Yet somehow instead of actually extracting the fundamental concepts and ideas from the article, you and everyone else here are trashing it by insisting that the only possible way anyone can read that article is a naive verbatim copy-paste of its text from 2001 to 2019...? Why?

> If you can agree with that, then maybe you can present a related technique, different to the one in the article, which uses volatile in a useful way.

But omitting a couple volatiles doesn't make it a different technique! You just skip the incorrect uses of volatile. The technique is the same..

I think it's less about the act and more about the competitors. You never really see spelling bees among 30+ or even 20+ contestants - because at that age nobody cares. But for teenagers or elementary schoolers, being able to demonstrate an above-excellent level of English comprehension is impressive precisely because of their lack of experience.

I actually went to my state bee in the early 90s and was in a position to do well and advance but realized up on stage I had no desire to go on to Nationals or be like my fellow competitors so deliberately flubbed a word or two I knew
Yes, but I didn't imagine it very deeply; NAT is rather like a PBX, which rather necessarily provides only a subset of mappings to the Internet. (I suppose it is a math exercise what the perfect NAT would be, if the Internet were exactly two NATted networks facing each other).

When I said invent, I was supposing we do invent one little extra bit to IPv4, wherein we default to this IPv4 Internet, but we could somehow specify another "universe" and simply have another entire IPv4 network, ad nauseum. Some proprietary routing topography would presumably exist as an inner layer, providing decades of new complexities, masking the implementation for naive ipv4 stacks that couldn't be updated. Those, could continue to exist unawares and perhaps very disjoint between "universes".

Anyways, I am not an Internet architect, and this idea is entirely foolhardy since we have a perfectly good IPv6 universe to move into, one that barely has unpacked the moving boxes from the previous. I suppose all I meant, is that we might invest some more energy in IPv4 before we're really done with it.

I live in Northern Virginia, where 4 of the top 5 richest counties in the US are located (with the 5th being just across DC into Maryland).

The problem is not so much that my income doesn't cover my rent. The problem is that my income doesn't cover the rent for the people who fulfill the services I need to live here.

Just as an example, we pay almost as much as our rent for daycare for our two small children. And our daycare providers have to commute from quite a distance to be able to afford anywhere to live. Or they still live with large, extended families. We really like our daycare, and the folk who work there are wonderful. I would personally feel better paying them more, but that's just where we are, the market we are in has settled on this being the "top end" of the childcare market.

We're not doing gangbusters, but we're also not doing bad. A few of our friends are doing better than us and they have private nannies for their kids. We can't do that. Most of our friends aren't doing as well as us and I almost want to quit my job just to get their kids out of the places they can afford. There is a big gap between "the best" daycare center and "the middle". We were briefly in "one of the better" daycares while we were wait-listed for our first choice and it was hell.

I don't need a place more affordable for me to live. I need a place more affordable for my mechanic to live. For my grocer and my barber. I want to know that the guy teaching my kid to swim is not about to fall asleep from working three jobs.

Beyond that, I want to know that the people fixing my roads can live here, too (hell, at this point, I'd like just anyone to fix the roads. I don't understand how we can be so "rich" on paper and yet I need to take my car in every 6 months for a pothole-related repair). I want the folks taking care of the homeless to not be a missed paycheck away from being on the streets themselves. I want my city counsel positions to be accessible to anyone other than folks with their own private law practices.

Median rent vs. median income isn't enough. It has to be accessible for everyone who needs to work in the local economy. And that's the problem. We really only have rents that fit the paychecks of the richest people here. There aren't many options for affordable housing.
As Jim Morrison of the doors once sang, “they got the guns but we have the numbers”.

before we had children my dream was to work part time so i could spend a lot of time with my children. when we had children, i got that opportunity, because my wife got a good paying job and i was a struggling freelancer.

and i hated it. it was boring, unfulfilling, and i didn't feel that i got enough time to work (which was where i'd seek that fulfillment)

when working, my wife often talks about how she'd like to stay home to take care of the kids, but since i work from home i know that she also feels unfulfilled if she is not at work.

we are fortunate that we live in a country where having a nanny is common and socially acceptable (means, it's not considered a rich peoples privilege), (most often it's a relative like the kids grandparents).

i eventually developed a theory that men are really privileged to live in a society where it is acceptable for them to leave this work to their partner.

Hey, thanks for sharing!

A lot of people argue that hiring remote employees allows you to find more talented candidates (i.e., compared to in-house). Personally, I don't think that hiring remote implies higher or lower quality workers. My sentiment is: Going remote grants you access to a larger pool of equally-talented candidates for cheaper. And that in itself is a HUGE advantage.

SubuculumCode4,

the way I think of this is that the price of any stock is related to the value of its expected future earnings. For value stocks, the bulk of that value is in the near term earnings. For growth, the value is in the long term earnings.

The reason that value stocks outperforms growth stocks in the long term is that people think the distress on value is worse than it is, and overestimate how good it will be for a growth stock.

The reason this is different for now, and in 1926-41, is that the growth stocks executed their business model. And value stocks didn’t revert back from distress.

Hope this helps,
Chris
That sounds like you want to rebuild the whole paradigm of how 99% of software world treats numbers (which may be, at the end, a right thing to do but unlikely to happen at least in the near term) and you are laying the fault of it not happening at Excel's door. That would be very misplaced blame.
