I think UBI is definitely interesting, but it can't wholesale replace benefits. For example, a major illness like cancer now can wipe out your income, your savings, and a UBI quite easily. I think UBI might be better than a range of some lower end benefits - but the also exists a variation of needs where we should commit to helping people with, that is going to exceed almost any general UBI threshhold in many cases, and still needs to be covered as benefits.

Won't this break the use case of using Wireguard as a gateway to a private subnet, in the typical many-clients-one-server VPN setup?

For example, suppose I have a private physical subnet 10.12.0.0/24 (perhaps in an AWS VPC).

I want to allow clients to access to these private hosts using a Wireguard VPN, so I set up a VPN with all clients having IPs from the 10.34.0.0/24. Because I want these clients to have access to the private physical subnet, so each client's config has

AllowedIPs = 10.34.0.0/24, 10.12.0.0/24

Which adds both subnets to each client's routing table.

I add a new route for the VPC to send all packets destined for 10.34.0.0/24 to the central Wireguard "server", thus the Wireguard server acts as a gateway between the virtual 10.34.0.0 subnet and the physical 10.12.0.0 network.

The packets originating from the 10.12.0.0/24 hosts are not local, but I definitely want to route them onto the virtual 10.34.0.0/24 network.
Many people survive cancer today. Probably more will survive tomorrow. I don't see cancer even being 0% fatal, but people will be able to cure more and more.
As a consultant I like to flip this situation around, and let the internal staff who are already advocating for the direction I feel is best to be my biggest cheerleaders. Engage them early, let them know you're there to help them personally, and they'll help you do a better job when presenting your shared ideas to the brass.
Is there any analytics kind of product that just pulls information from web server access logs?

There are lots of cases I can think of where I wouldn't be all that interested in gathering Google Analytics level data and would be fine with being able to do a bit of analysis about unique users and usage patterns. (beyond doing it myself with a log aggregator and creating my own dashboards)
This is reading more and more like you're begging the question. One of the sibling replies that predates this comment by a quarter of an hour already addresses your specific missing connecting dot here. Not to mention the article itself, which is also well cited.

It's good. I suggest you read it. Interrogating my two sentence oversimplification of the forest is not a useful way to learn about this.
This is because Apple is silently building a survailance network for lost devices, the UWB chip in the iPhone 11 is also in the Airpods Pro and will be on all future Apple things. Say I leave my Airpods pro in the conference room of an office I was at earlier for a job interview... with Apple's UWB magic, any iPhone 11 can be used to find my airpods, not just mine... This is for locational discovery of all future apple devices, this mesh network allows someone to use your device as the exit to apples location servers.
> even though driving is a privileged and not a right

I would like to agree but in reality the vast majority of the population get a driver's license (and drive on the regular) and you have to fuck up really badly to lose it.

For better or for worse, most of our built environment is absolutely dependent on driving so society as a whole is way too lenient on drivers and their statistical externalities.

Driving is treated as a revocable right, not as a privilege.

By overallocating. In Europe, most homes can do well with 10kwh daily electric energy. Make that 20 to be on the safe side. To fill that reliably you might need something between 10 and 50kwp solar energy. Everything can be bought once.
Haha dw I'm more than happy to be proven wrong.

One of my favorite secrets about C# is that query syntax is actually a form of do notation. You can create your own interfaces that conform to the monad laws, and the compiler will happily let you apply query syntax to them the same way you can to IEnumerable.

That said, it's not something to actually make use of if you're trying to make your code readable, since the keywords are so tightly coupled to the LINQ use case.
Is “browsers that support the technology” interchangeable with “Google chrome”?
>The flip side is that it is also bad for morale for someone to be recommending a solution for some time, the recommendation is ignored, a consultant is hired, the consultant recommends the same solution, and then the recommendation is implemented.

Speaking as a consultant, my experience has been the opposite. I have walked into many organizations, said <obviously good thing>, and been hailed as a hero by the handful of folks who had been saying <obviously good thing> all along because FINALLY someone gets it! These are people who have been killing themselves in the trenches fighting this fight forever. When you finally show up and resolve it it's like the Army of the Dead in Return of the King. Fight's over, you can go bask in your "told you so" afterglow now.

It also turns out that most of the time, those people may have been smart enough to get <obviously good thing>, but were pretty bad at communicating the value of <obviously good thing> to anyone who mattered or at making a plan for how to get from <bad thing> to <obviously good thing>.

All of this is not to credit McKinsey or any of big consulting. They mostly provide a "signature method" to launder your your obvious observations into a glitzy powerpoint presentation to make it look like you applied rigorous testing and experience to what was really a cursory observation your entry level analyst made. All the people with actual experience are too busy killing themselves at business development and facilitating this "observation laundering" process to apply their brain power to developing actual insights.
Probably most of us here on Hacker News already have it. I certainly do.

No, not every job provides this. Also, not every job provides health coverage and unlimited snacks.
Potentially more decentralized or at least time-smoothed electric grids. More batteries can mean greater independence between production means and consumption time. (The obvious case is better time shifting of things like wind or solar power.)
>True Energy independence could turn world politics upside down.

We have true energy independence in the US. And it has turned world politics upside down. Fracking and LNG has made the US a net energy exporter over the last 10 years.
people are still gonna end up broke and need food, but now there won’t be food stamps specifically set aside for food, or Medicaid funding specifically set aside for healthcare? Terrible choice. People need $1,000 a month on top of what they have, not a check and slashing all their present support.
You have my condolences :)

One person I knew gave up on word when it suddenly lost half a dozen figures they no longer had the originals for. Never did figure out what the mechanism was, but you bet they became more disciplined about backups.

I'm sure it's much more reliable today, but once you had a long document with a bunch of figures, tables, and equations in it, Word started doing odd things. Including just refusing input for a couple of minutes with no message, then crashing. Good times.
Oh, that's right, this is iPhone 11 only. :/
Indeed. I posted it too soon! haha
> The reason Google has penalties for page weight and loading time is that they have extensive user research on customer behavior related to loading time. If a flat page studded with a few dozen giant PNG’s takes a minute to load, most people are going to click the back button.

Why is then basically every single page created by Google is a bloated monstrosity with multi-megabyte Pangs routinely embedded in them and loading megabytes of shitty JS?
English is studied in primary school, which wasn't the case 20 years ago...

That's tricky. Years ago primary extended from 1st to 8th grades (6 to 14 y.o. aprox.) so English, that started in 6th was primary. Now 6th to 8th have been moved to ESO.

Anyway I just checked with my son and he started in Infantil, so it's really soon.

The real issue is qualification. To really understand and speak English you need to learn pronuntiation properly. And that's the weakest link in our system. Most teachers have no idea how English is really pronounced and wouldn't be able to understand a native speaker to save their lives. It's impossible to learn English from someone that can't understand or speak it.

I believe it was Aguirre that proposed a plan to invite thousands of native speakers to teach English in Madrid. Of course everybody attacked her as usual whatever she says... I don't like her either, but that was a good idea for once.
Normal people know how to use Firefox which has it built-in.
The surprisingly positive aspect of this is that a piece of system software which is checking for location, which there is no toggle for in System Services, which nobody even new existed at all...

...still makes the the Location Services icon flash! The Location Services icon really does flash when anything uses Location Services, apparently.

This is no trivial thing to be thankful for, and hardly something I'm confident will be universally true forever.
That is an unreasonable comparison to make, considering EVs are competing with ICE vehicles, not trains or busses.
As a rule of thumb, a 10x increase in production of something halves the price. Purely through economies of scale. Much of what's been seen in lithium-ion batteries is just that.

Has Tesla got their act together with their US "Gigafactory" in Nevada yet? They had a lot of problems, most of them in plant management related to starting up a big plant in an isolated area.[1] Plus feuding with Panasonic.[2]

Eventually somebody will get this right, and there will be automated plants with very few employees. This is the ideal situation for automation - making huge numbers of identical products. It just takes a long time to get the automation working.

A big problem in the US is that few people go into manufacturing engineering. It's a big thing in China, but not in the US. Average pay for manufacturing engineers is about $78K, according to Glassdoor. Senior level, maybe $82K. This is for a job which today requires understanding real-time computer control, electronics, mechanical engineering, and organizational behavior.

Maybe the UK and the rest of Europe wouldn't be so bad at building businesses if they stopped taxing revenue and focused on profits instead. I'm not complaining as an American since it keeps them dependant on our services but it seems silly. It's like they hate the idea of succeeding.

Could be stay the same or even go down. Producer still have to compete with each other and they even might lower their price to entice buyer to spend their UBI.
Presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg has been relatively outspoken about his time working at McKinsey (although he can't discuss specifics due to an NDA), which may have sparked a wave of 'what does McKinsey actually do'

Yeup, this. I worked at a former company who paid 7 figures for a re-org (lay-offs), and it was run mostly by 25 year olds, with the occasionally pre-recorded video by a big-co partner. Was really interesting dynamic that felt more like "Up in the Air". But it was obvious they did it for liability reasons and so they wouldn't have to take the blame for the lay-offs since it was the consultants who told them findings.
Japan's high-speed trains are very impressive, departing some stations on a 12-minute interval, going 275 km/h and stopping only occasionally. Kyoto to Tokyo is what, 3 hours and there are 4 stops iirc.

But the trains go in all directions and are back-stopped by many local trains including express trains with inter-city service as well.

By contrast, a single dual-track system with only cars or nothing as a back-stop is not going to be reliable enough. What happens when a few days of repairs are needed on tunnels or bridges?

The other issue is political: does anyone think that Washington State is going to spend $50 billion on a transportation system in Boeing's back yard that is not made of airplanes?
Chesapeake suffers from decades of mismanagement. Granted there are other oil companies that are also suffering (Lynn, Continental, Williams, Devon, OXY, etc.)

I have done PCI passthroughs and USB passthroughs. One of my PCI passthroughs is a MegaRaid card. Not sure how you are physically connecting the pool, but if the pool is running on dedicated hardware, there's a good chance you could passthrough the hardware...very good if PCI or USB based.

Proxmox's hosts controller does not require being on ZFS itself...you can have multiple drives and filesystems. If it were available to Proxmox and not passed through, it could be allocated only to a particular VM. In case that was your only end goal..
This is when I deny access to their equipment and their workers in my home.

Corporate speak: 'leverage' when 'use' is perfectly functional, and less of a mouthful.

Only occasionally is it used in a sense when a magnifying effect is implied.
Funny enough, Urchin was exactly this.
Sorry to hear that. Hope things worked out.
Disseminating vulnerabilities like these to less savvy people should be a critical imparitive for the next century. I imagine a team of animators at a non-profit or foundation that illustrate how these attacks work at different levels of technical backgrounds.
Good luck. Building a sustainable business at $2 / month will be hard but we wish you the best :)
The second and third order effects are a bit hard to predict. Electric fork lifts ?! Cheaper Plastics .. Oil moving from transportation to Chemical sector .. collapse of petro-states .. its going to be interesting.
Based on being an occasional technical mentor to a friend with ADHD, I might suggest:

I would experiment with plenty of exercise during the work week to try to find a mellow yet energetic state.

I would look for ways to do something you find fascinating as a way to engage with the work. As an example, experiments with debuggers can give you a different way to engage with code.

Don't be afraid to go back and forth between more and less code centric jobs. You may have a significant advantage context switching for presales engineering and roles that deal with more unexpected runtime problems, etc.
It's also an accident that Linux won the mantle of "most popular Unix clone". It could just as easily have been a BSD, and frankly, many wish it actually was
Provisioning cloud stuff ends up being about the relationships between all the things. Plus a bunch of dirty domain knowledge about retries and resource schemas.

It's very difficult to delete infra in AWS without a resource graph once you have enough things that refer to each other.

You can only get so far with a bunch of isolated yaml manifests for single resources.

So the MVP of anything that can solve the general case basically ends up doing the exact same things as terraform... and might as well actually be terraform.

Hello, gregablr, who works for AMP and forgets to disclose it.

No, it's not Facebook's, or the browser's, or the user's fault. It's strictly and only Google's fault. You (as in "You, Google" and "You, personally, as a member of the AMP team") broke the most basic functionality of the web and go out of your way to justify this behavior.
That's lax as hell. You kill someone with a car, you better not ever be able to use a car again. Mandatory to sell your car, license revoked, ankle monitor or something if needed to keep you out of your car. Don't play with people's lives.
This will hit a lot of people on the web today that have given up on a blanket block on JS (because a lot of pure text content simply fails to render without JS, yaaaaay) but do have a blanket blacklist on JS assets and whitelist requests on a need basis.
Who cares about unintended consequences if you're the first person to study them? China gets to deal with a novel problem and will get novel rewards eventually because the west let itself get soft.

EDIT: To all the people making Nazi comparisons, we stole the atom bomb from the Nazis. Their science across multiple disciplines was on par or superior. We're smarter than them now because we /destroyed/ them. It's easy to surpass someone who's standing still. My point is that we need real strategies and plans if we don't want certain science domains to become irrelavent due to the restrictions we place on ourselves. "We beat the Nazis" isn't a real counter argument.
To play devil's advocate: Scar tissue doesn't get passed to offspring or propagated throughout the population though.

This does not really work, at least for the pathological procrastinators. I know because I’ve lived most of my life like that. It made me pretty good at side activities that will do little for my wellbeing or my financial and social success. Using the author’s example: if you read a lot but you only get paid to write, sooner or later real life will show you the bill. Yes, all that reading might come useful here or there, but the value/time ratio will be abysmally low - and at the back of your mind, the negative feeling of having wasted time will reinforce a downward spiral of negativity and self-hatred.

I think I turned a corner on this issue recently, but I don’t want to preach and everyone is different. I just want to say: if your procrastination is at chronic levels, you have to accept you’re powerless, seek professional help, and sincerely commit to the solutions they suggest. It can take very little to fix, but it’s often impossible to do if you don’t admit to yourself that you’ve lost control.
The articles don't really say much about the data. I think this is the same data from his talk in 2018. I read somewhere that one baby is a heterozygous CCR5+/- knockout and the other is a mosaic. His clinical plan was to test to infect the babies blood a few months after birth, probably someone has done that already. Pity that we have to play hide and seek with this study.

That also happens in Spain. A bad joke that requires a little work if you can't speak Spanish:

Italian is mostly an invention. The language itself has changed very little in 700 years because it was born as an hybrid of a few Italian "dialects" (as we call them, but they really are proper languages). For a very long time the language was only used by a very small minority of elites and litterates. It only became a widely spoken language after the second word war through a explicit governmental effort and through the television.

And the language is explicitly standardized by the Accademia della Crusca.

Still you are not wrong, now that it is widely spoken, it is likely that the language will mutate quickly (and signs are already visible).
Ah, I have never tried to use ed interactively (I've worked with sed and I mostly edit in vi or its relatives but even the oldest machine I own has a video terminal so I don't need ed) but that makes sense as the source of the '?' error.

I'm aware that the story isn't about security, maybe that didn't come through in my post, it's just that the story always comes to mind when talking about how verbose to make error messages. As you illustrate, there are real trade offs, just today's trade-offs are different than in Ken's PDP programming days.
