There is a weird dynamic in the US where many rural areas have garbage level internet access ... and some pockets have insanely high levels of service.

Somehow some random telcos have found a way (presumably government subsidies (I don't think that is bad)) to provide some amazing service, while others wallow in absolute trashy telco service.

I know folks with consistently low latency 1Gb service that is just amazing, and folks where the local telco literally left lines lying across their lawn providing terrible service claiming they'd get back to it and never did.

I worked with one rural telco provider who had datacenter grade switches running 1G sfps (they could have run 10G sfps on all of the ports if they chose to do so) ... one port per household. I talked to the guy running the show there for a while and he said they just had this massive budget so "why not?". He noted almost none of the houses used their service to its fullest extent with the exception of some local teens ;)

I like the app, but I am a bit confused by the data usage.

* As a starter: The source code is only a JS snippet. No HTML in there.

* Right away I "fullstory.com" appear in the JS. So I have reason to believe that all user interactions (mouse, keyboard, etc.) are uploaded to fullstory.com. Not sure this is actually the case. Certainly not in favour of it.

* In the network tab, I see requests to heapanalytics.io.

Setting aside the question if such data use is necessary, appropriate, or done elsewhere.
I wonder if this is actually legal.

At the polling place they have a list of registered voters and mark them off when they vote.

If people were voting under other people's names in significant numbers, it'd be obvious when the real voters came in and found out they were already marked. That very seldom happens.

The reason people don't do it is probably that an extra vote or two is unlikely to make any difference, so the risk/reward is poor. It's hard enough getting people to take the time to vote in the first place, much less risk a felony conviction to vote more than once.
I'm not an expert in economy but it just shows that there's a monopoly in the internet industry in Germany

It doesn't make any sense that a country so developed will have a slow internet.

If Speedtests come close, what are you downloading? You could be limited by the servers. Try a few torrents maybe? But then the modem they provide might not be able to handle that many connections. I can only get full speed with my own router running Openwrt.

> I'd say that if malloc (or equivalent) returns NULL then the system really is out of memory.

That's very much not true when 32-bit processes are involved. You can easily be out of (non-fragmented) address space in a 32-bit process (whether it's all resident or not) while the overall system is nowhere close to being out of memory.

Even in a 64-bit process you can exhaust the address space without being out of memory if you try hard enough; you just have to try much harder.

That said, even on Linux allocators will return NULL when they're just out of address space; there's no overcommit going on there.
I brought this tech up precisely because of S&W's experience supporting it in NJ; you reminded me of the state and company that took the heat and backed off - thank you

As you're here on HN I'd be disappointed if you found the engineering points insoluble. Although I take your point that you're purchasing for the long haul, perhaps are a hobbyist, and that's cool, engineered solutions gong forward needn't ruin the shooting utility for collectors and hobbyists. Yet there'll always be a market for the old stuff. Firearms are not the only area where the old stuff is collectible and sometimes superior (tube audio amps, LPs come to mind) The social disagreements aren't as easily susceptible to fixing as the engineering problems. The questioner raised the question as if the social factors were subsidiary when in fact they are primary and trump all other considerations.
Good for you. Our 5 and 7 year olds get "banned" from youtube every now and then when we detect the slightest bit of "mania", which they do get.

In Sweden no screen time is recommended until the age of two, and I would easily say that until 3 or 4 years of age, screen time is really not necessary and possible harmful.

You don't have to talk about integrating higher degree polynomials, because a polynomial is just a sum of monomials, and you just end up integrating monomials over and over again. If you can integrate a single monomial, you can integrate all polynomials.

That makes your objection seem weak, as though you don't know how to integrate, and you're just imagining that it is hard. That undermines your point because there are actually things in math that are hard, but you'd be woefully unprepared to understand them if you don't see the value in memorizing the absolutely trivial stuff.

It's like a child saying "I don't want to be forced to memorize the shapes of the letters, because that's not what makes a good writer." Does a good writer sit around looking up letter shapes in a diagram all day because they can't be bothered to remember them?

Either way, the optimal solution is the same: do the task over and over again until you are so familiar with it that you can recall it from memory. Memorization is a necessary part of learning.

I track all my time for the week in 15 minute intervals on a piece of paper, spending ~15 minutes planning my week on Sunday evening or Monday morning.

Don't most servers throttle how much bandwidth outbound traffic gets? I never expect to get full speed downloading a random file. Even a super popular torrent might not have enough peers to reach full potential before it's done downloading.
This sounds like it's about accountability of your time, not understanding where your time goes. People already know they aren't doing what they want to be doing, so they have reminders to keep them accountable to themselves.
Many banks use a CDN, primarily for DDOS protection. This includes the actual online banking endpoints. E.g. Lloyds and Barclays (major UK banks) both use Akamai, as does American Express.
That sounds a lot like a Battle Royale... which is also very popular now. If you ignore the "rankings" that is, and play each game in isolation which I tend to do.

Check out the Amazon FreePlay system. I got a "kids edition" kindle for my 2 year old, it came with a year of freeplay and I've kept it going since it's such a good value.
Basically, they get access to all the kids apps, books, and videos in the kindle store. You can limit the age appropriate level.

My biggest complaint is how tedious it is to remove apps, since the kids eventually fill up the kindle.

The US accounts for just under the 19% of Chinese exports. That is not trivial, but the domestic (and non-US international) market is growing fast enough that it can absorb that hit faster than it would take other countries to develop capacity to make those goods at the standard that American buyers demand.

Sure, it would mean lost economical potential for China, but by no means would it leave China with no place to send its manufactured goods.

Is this true for LEO projects such as Starlink and OneWeb? I thought the latency characteristics were much more reasonable there. Or is this speaking about bandwidth? The wording is a bit vague.
They’re still worse.
UK Has good coverage except in rural areas, and in some rural areas they've done their own FTTP (B4RN for example).

There's a big "full fibre" push from various different providers (Hyperoptic (FTTB), GigaClear, CityFibre, BT OpenReach).

Most densely populated areas have the choice of FTTC (the infrastructure is ALL BT OpenReach, however you have a choice of providers who piggy back on this), and in bigger cities/towns Virgin Cable up to 380Mbps down 37Mbps up.

Pricing is very competitive, because even with areas that are all BT FTTC lots of providers use their infrastructure and OfCom regulates how much OpenReach are allowed to charge.

I have a truly unlimited cable package for £50 a month, 384 down 37 up.
About your collaborations, did you come up with anything interesting?

The system I’ve settled on is to just keep a steno notebook on my desk, and write a couple words in one column, and hours in the other.

Something like:

Timers got too confusing because of multiple tasks, and any system involving typing on a computer or using my phone had too high an activation cost and ended up needing supplementing.
I've been tracking all my productive hours since November 2018. I can highly recommend it. I also know some others that do the same. nateliason.com comes to mind.

The article is fairly careful not to call phone farming of inctivized add apps "fraud" directly (except for the first line).

I'm not sure I would include the behavior discussed in the article under "Ad Fraud". Usually "Ad Fraud" refers schemes where someone hosts an Ad and then fraudulently delivers fake traffic/clicks to that Ad to get paid.

My guess is that the real money and real players in this space are not running incentivized ad apps, but being paid to generate traffic for REAL Ad Fraud.

It's not the only option. The other option is to implement move semantics on the containing type. Properly implemented move semantics gives you assurance about ownership and that you don't use the tread interface inappropriately.
Interestingly, if you remove "rund" it changes from "only 50 yards" to "just 50 meters".
It's not about stuff, it's about having other people. Some ( apparently a whole lot more than I thought) people find the lack of social interaction in American towns and cities depressing and alienating. Moreover you may have a lot things to keep you entertained in your home, but I doubt that yours is reflective of the average American home. Most people (I'm guessing now) probably just watch T.V and argue online...
Rome should not be on that list IMO. Its public transport is terrible, at least in the centre. Still preferable to having to drive there though, that's for sure. I'm sure it's not true of every part of the city, but I was unpleasantly surprised by inadequate rush hour bus service. Haven't seen buses that packed since my childhood in 1990s Ukraine.
The trouble is gamers are susceptible to it. They're running running all kinds of untrusted code (javascript, custom game levels created by other users) as well as receiving untrusted game data from other users in multiplayer games which commonly then goes through a data parser optimized for performance over security.

As kasey_junk implied, this sort of over-protectiveness is not universal in the USA. For example, NYC provides all students that live further than 1/2 mile from their school with a discounted public transit card (soon to be free). While very young kids are rare, tween and teen students can often be seen unaccompanied on mass transit. And even more often walking alone or in groups without parents. No one bats an eye except possibly to complain a bit about the groups of boisterous kids blocking the sidewalk :-)
"almost"??
It would be interesting to overlay a map of high service levels on top of railroads and universities. Naturally, the backbone of the Internet has to travel through rural areas to reach urban centers, but universities (especially research universities) were also among the earliest sites connected and they tend not to be in urban centers. Railroad right of ways are great for long-distance cables, so they would likely be heavily used early in the construction of the Internet.

Millions of Books Are Secretly in the Public Domain
Spreadsheet Programming in Excel and with VBA
MS Excel and its marriage to VBA with the macro recorder (in the developer tab) introduced me into a way to harness the vast power of MS Excel for scientific, engineering and experiemntal applications.
One of the key reasons I did NOT start using the VBA feature of MS Excel is the gobbledygook language put forth as ways to 'understand' VBA. It is a backwards way to introduce an experienced programmer to this gateway of power. All the common structures and concepts needed for powerful programming are already present and available. Subroutines, variable maneuvers, etc. are all there and it's simply a matter of case by case navigating the seemingly peculiar syntax.

The technique that works great for learning and a lot of jobs is 1. set up the spreadsheet and as possible define the relationships of the desired variables in cell contents right on the spreadsheet 2. Exercise the logic right there. Next, use the macro recorder to copy the keystroke maneuvers needed to accomplish the task (or a simplified version of the task). Experiment with the macro, first to understand the VBA syntax, (2) Associate the subroutine (aka macro) with a command button. (3) Add macro's of each step in the desired overall process, and associate each with a command button. Debug each baby step macro, and then assemble the macro's into a larger structure as appropriate. We have developed a complete instrument and device interface using this approach (see DAQ2GO.COM

Ask HN: Increasing Real-World Relevance of Technical Interviews?
Judging a software devleopment candidate's coding ability is traditionally done with coding puzzles that are not necessarily relevant to the work the candidate would be expected to do on the job (the most stereotypical of which are FizzBuzz, reverse a string, etc.)

Given that, what techniques or questions you use to evaluate candidates in a way that is actually relevant to the work they'd be expected to do?

One obvious answer would be "have the candidate work on a real bug or feature in your codebase", but that is not always feasible given time or domain knowledge constraints. Another answer that I like from this line of thinking is "give the candidate a real pull request from your codebase to review", but then the candidate may not necessarily write any code themselves.

What do you do to make your technical interviews more relevant to the job?
I have done it before, there are tools that you can install that will capture the title of your active window and then graph it.

I can see if I spend 2 hours in Terminal or 1 hour in Vscode or 5 hours in Firefox. I can even see the title of sites I spent most time in the browser, etc.

That's the best approach I have found. One example I can think of is https://wakatime.com/ I personally use a python script I found a long time ago that does the same while keeping all my data locally. But it has less integrations and is not as nice.
I wouldn't like to tell someone else how to parent, especially since as mentioned earlier all children are different. But, a small story.

I had a friend back in university who's parents did the same. Completely locked down with no internet access unless it was explicitly with her parents observation well into her late-teens. She found freedom when she went away to university, and with that freedom she didn't know how to regulate it. She'd be up all hours of the night scrolling everything shes missed in years past. Games, pop culture references, ancient memes, hours and hours of YouTube playlists, etc. It affected her schooling to the point where she almost withdrew because she'd be so wrapped up in the internet, she wouldn't know how to time-manage for completing assignments or even getting to class. Needless to say her inability to impulse control caused quite a few GPA scares and a lot of money spent on off-term sessions. I remember we agreed as an apartment to put a parental control pin on the communal Xbox because she'd sit for hours and skip class to play.

I can't quite say all this is related to her parents essentially banning her from technology, but it certainly changed my view on how I'd introduce my child to the internet. We're coming to view internet addition similar to drug or alcohol abuse; and I think any sort of responsible moderation that can be learned as a child continues as skills into adulthood.
'body odor' was popularised in thee early 20th century as a way to sell deodorant.

As a regular gym goer, what smells is /bacteria/. Fresh sweat doesn't smell bad, old sweat does. Same thing goes for urine.
