You have no idea what they do or don't understand because all you have to go on is a noisy model of their mind in yours.

You need to focus on facts, actions and consequences. They don't understand how it works (your explanation) THEREFORE they question things that you thought had been put to rest? Ask them what would their opinion be IF (factual thing they're mistaken on) was true. Sometimes people do not disagree with you on facts; but their emotions can't let them agree on courses of action. Often you can direct people (with questions) towards verbalizing exactly what you wanted to tell them in the first place.

They don't understand how it works (your explanation) THEREFORE they are saying falsehoods about it to others? Correct the facts one by one as they come by, their model will self-update eventually. That comes standard with the human being firmware.

They don't understand how it works (your explanation) THEREFORE they are making assumptions or having expectations of your own work that are wrong? Kindly redirect by asking what factually they think is wrong with this part of your work, and what they think can be done about it, and who they think is the right person to do it. (I am being vague because you don't specify if the person is your superior, but if not, you can be more forceful in wording)

There is a chance you are in fact misinterpreting their words, because of incompatible jargon, either of you sucking at communication, or irreconcilable difference of interests.

There are very few guns that aren't based on, derived from, or exactly the same as military weapons. Many of the most popular hunting rifles and shotguns around the world, even those very traditional in style, would qualify as this.

If your PiHole servers a DoH endpoint, you're probably back to exposing plaintext DNS to your ISP. The whole point of DoH is to tunnel DNS out of your untrusted ISP network to anywhere else in the world where it can be trusted more.

What is the case, however, is that you could set up a DoH endpoint on some other network and route your DNS there.
For use cases where this level of rigour is desired, it would be nice to have real separate metadata vs. convention. Doing this by convention is unreliable.

The above situation seems to happen at work, and it's unusual for people with personality disorders to simultaneously have major breaks with reality at work and be undiagnosed long-term. It's odd that it's the first interpretation you are choosing to address (by calling somebody else condescending to boot), although yes, the proper reaction to people with issues that severe is backing away slowly, so it's worth being said to cover all the bases.

Ya sorry, I get excited.
My residential electricity costs about $0.12/kWh, including delivery. I don’t think that’s a realistic price for solar. Current utility-scale solar is maybe $30-$45/MWh with some estimates of $15/MWh in 2022. Obviously that doesn’t include transmission, but presumably it would make sense to co-locate fuel synthesis near generation and reduce those costs. Seems like that would make a big difference to those estimates.
A big chunk of incidents would be known to adversaries just by their nature.
Indeed. I don't see how the solution to this problem isn't just to patch gdm.

How many throats are you willing to slit? :-)

(Note: Just kidding - I am not really suggesting said behavior.)
Your ISP, by virtue of supplying the pipe to the internet, can (and very likely does) still snoop on any old-fashioned plaintext DNS requests you make across it, even when you're not using their servers.
I think it's more of a thing where you talk to a bankruptcy lawyer. I'm sure some are willing to talk for free for 30 minutes or so. Maybe talk to one or two, then draw up a list of questions and pay one for a full consultation.

This is an interesting read from 2012.

He discusses how they can build in protections but the issue was the technology available in 2012 failed to kick in quickly enough. Is this still the case?
It's strange to just dismiss the significance population after saying it increased our emissions 8x. An 8x decrease is far more than what the Paris Agreements call for to keep global warming under 1.5°C. We wouldn't even be talking about climate change if we had 8x less emissions.

Let's further breakdown (Emissions per capita) into (Emissions per GDP) * (GDP per capita). We can see here[1] that emissions per GDP have been decreasing as far back as that data set goes (the past 25 years).

So it looks like the two main factors currently driving emissions higher are increased wealth and more population. No surprise that the US has more emissions per capita than India - the standard of living is much higher.

It is not off topic at all. Don't reinvent the wheel if you want fast, meaningful results. DRY. You should know better. Otherwise it's only useful for curiosity's sake, as stated.

Save yourself the pain and use Unity instead if your goal is to ship something.
Buried lines also have the opposite problem, that they're too insulated. I believe I once read that underground power lines generally have to be about 50% thicker to compensate for the higher temperatures (and resulting increased resistance) that they run at because underground wires can't get rid of excess heat as fast as they would in the open air.
Cumulus?
It is actually difficult to claim that this SE aligns with ANY one person's religious views. There is (or at least was) such a mix of denominations, creeds, and belief that it was actually quite a marvel that it lasted more than a couple months.

This mod actually had a post named "brothers we are not Christians" where he explained the plurality of the community. This SE certainly does not have any real unity in belief.

A good comparison would be pointing to Bernie Sanders and to Rand Paul and saying "your views likely align because you're both Americans."

> Actually everyone should prefer the other guy do it rather than host it themselves.

This isn't true. If you're hosting it, you can control it and you can make sure that it's always operational. The last thing you want is a 100 phone call of "my internet isn't working" and then trying to explain it's not your fault, but rather it's "some other guy".
William Gibson, Neuromancer, 1984: "Data transfer from Bockris Systems GmbH, Frankfurt, advises, under coded transmission, that content of shipment is Kuang Grade Mark Eleven penetration program."
To quote from chapter 1 of K&R C: "The only way to learn a new programming language is by writing programs in it. The first program to write is the same for all languages:"

Print the words
hello, world

The program to do that is literally the very first program shown in the very first chapter of K&R C.

99% of Python programs before Python3 was announced used the print statement.

Python3 broke 99% of existing programs.

And your rebuttal is there are---now---nontrivial programs that run in both languages? How many of those nontrivial programs existed before python3 was announced?

Zero. Zero programs like that existed.

This historical revisionism astonishes me. Just because it is now, after the fact possible to write programs that behave the same in both Python2 and Python3 doesn't mean that they are the same language.
There is a bunch of data in PDFs that may have previously been visible but is no longer. I know that there are also fun meta-data attributes embedded on a per-page and per document basis - and also that PDFs can be portfolio documents where such a document will often contain no longer referenced PDFs that became irrelevant to the PDF. The file format is pretty crazy.
Most electronic engineering component-related documentation is good. It has a long history tracing back through National Instruments.

Intel's 80386 documentation was superb.
>they treat FOB Asians like they are doctor's children

Diversity measures not withstanding, universities try to admit the students most likely to go on to have the most success in adult life and for Asians adolescent academic performance is a worse predictor of this than for Europeans.

...well, I don't, so there. Also, this is true if I'd _only_ use Chrome, and never used other software for networking.

Damn, I actually used to respect you. This is so disappointing.
"Going blind" is a term I've heard recently when talking with operators. Where as "going dark" referred to the DOJ/FBI's term for ubiquitous encipherment of the content, "going blind" refers to the metadata (DNS in this case).

My view is pretty basic: If I can see your DNS, I can pretty much guess on a very short list what kind of [browsing] behavior you are engaging in.

It's not an appeal to authority. The Supreme Court is literally the last word on the Constitution in the United States, therefore they are the authority on it.

Scalia's opinion is the law of the land, and the reasoning is sound. Unless you're a SCOTUS justice, your opinion on the matter isn't really relevant.
> Datasheets are law abiding documentation?

Ideally true, but in practice I’ve seen certain performance claims (such as battery cell capacity degradation in a battery data sheet) aren’t accurate or depend a lot on your application. If they are reputable, I assume they are trying to estimate an honest average.

Navigating the sites are challenging when I don’t already know which part I want, for sure. I wish there were better ways to explore sites for certain keywords in a data sheet.

Yes there are better ways but for a lot of small businesses those better ways simply do not get paid. It isn't how it should be and it will take a long time for things to change.
I think you're being a bit over generous, the days of "Do no evil" have come and gone.

Still, ISPs are definitely higher up on the evil-o-meter.
Well no, because my router is proxying DNS requests, and it's not to my ISP's DNS servers. (It's also serving a number of custom DNS records for internal/work stuff.)

I don't understand how trading one ISP for another (Cloudflare?) is an improvement long-run. The system itself needs to be resilient, not just depend on the kindness of the upstream gods.
I also don’t use chrome :p

Google has promoted its own DNS service over others in the past, including for non-chrome users, and presumably would do the same when DoH (in whatever form) is the norm.

I was simply saying we already know that ISPs misbehave, but presuming that Google wouldn’t is not necessarily a clear cut decision.
For people who are interested in doing this sort of thing, you can also fully mirror and self-host openstreetmap, with copies of all global tiles, a tile server, etc. If I recall right the full dataset is about 900GB in size.
Charlton Hesston marched with MLK Jr. when it wasn't popular to do so. He was president of the NRA for a number of years recently.

There are people who have been trying to sell a bill of goods about the NRA and gun owners in general for a long time. It simply isn't accurate.
I've been in the same position quite a lot recently, so I thought I'd add my 5c. There are a few conclusions I've come to that depend on the person doing this:

1. Gaslighting - definitely possible, though not the first assumption you should make.

2. The person very badly doesn't want it to be true. Usually this is because they're on a tight deadline and/or may not be accustomed to working in a team (who may not share their own deadline).

3. The person doesn't understand your area, and doesn't want to. Their existing (less complete) understanding says that it should work this way. You are therefore the incompetent one, not them.

(On #1, you could be justified in making that conclusion first if your experience resonates strongly with this - highly recommended reading - https://www.issendai.com/psychology/sick-systems.html)

(On #3 - working in an area your boss('s boss's boss, etc) has little or no respect for is hard. This is the basis for the "do you see engineering as a cost centre or value centre?" question when going for interviews.)

Coincidentally with a sibling comment, I'm reading How to Win Friends and Influence People at the moment, and I concur: you can't convince someone they're wrong. Arguing is almost never the best course of action (in any situation).

Some solutions I've found that work sometimes (to address the symptoms at least) -

- Ask them to try it for themselves. Let them use the app / make the request / build the component / create the logical argument / read the docs / read the bug reports / etc.
- Ask them for help to find the solution, or ask if you can leave it with them.
- Ask them to demonstrate it working as they believe it should.

Once you've done any or all of those things, go have lunch. (I'm assuming they won't want to pair on it there and then given the situation.)

Sometimes when you get back, magic will have happened, and they will have "discovered" it doesn't work - and they'll immediately ask you to do something different, often urgently. Note you won't usually get credit for raising the issue in the first place. At best you're still in the "doesn't understand the considerations at my level" basket in their mind. But nonetheless you'll be asked to do something differently to move past this block.

If that doesn't happen, document somewhere that you've hit this issue, reference the conversation, and any documentation (or write it yourself) and move to another piece of work. If #2 or #3 are in play, missing a deadline is likely not actually your responsibility.

Other times the problem is systemic (which ironically can be a euphemism for "personal"), in which case you may be better off just leaving (assuming you're in a position to do so). You do you, let them do them, without you.
