6 or 7 paid subs sounds reasonable.

Even today there is a big push by the government for "checkpoints" to be reduced. The government pushed repair and overhaul contracts to FFP. The overhaul periods are going over schedule and they are trying to get ships out of the yards "on-time".

I see it every day. I do critical alignment work that involves very tight tolerances on the order of single digit arcseconds and single thousandths of an inch. Do you think when MARMC or SWRMC comes out to check the work item that they're verifying the alignment? That takes specialized equipment and knowledge.

If they reduce 25% of the checkpoints, but alert the shipyard of which checkpoints they are discarding don't you think that could cause some perverse incentives? They'd be better off sending out a list of checkpoints and then performing 50% of them without telling the shipyard.

Also of course the Navy doesn't repair all of it's own ships :) US Navy, including MSC, and the CG have the majority of their repair work done at General Dynamics, BAE Systems, Colanna's, and a whole slew of smaller shipyards around the country.
I just listen to the streams of the radio stations I love:

WWOZ - New Orleans gold mine, especially 2 week audio archive

KCRW - live + curated streams

Cultura Brasil - a curated, updated stream of Brazilian music

BR Heimat - odd, but I find corny alpine brass bands a great working soundtrack

WKHR - a high school radio station in Cleveland where old people play 78rpm records

Regular Tesla Autopilot driver here:

I just don't get this situation. With Autopilot, it takes a tiny amount of pressure on the steering wheel to take over. The pressure is so small that, when Autopilot jerks the wheel, you're more likely to turn it off.

So, assuming the driver was paying attention, with his hands on the wheel, this makes no sense. The only way the accident makes sense is if the driver fell asleep, wasn't paying attention, or accidentally turned off autopilot.

And falling asleep, or not paying attention, is a real risk in any car.

(Note: What I remember from older articles about this topic is that the car was nagging him for awhile to put his hands on the wheel.)

There's no alternative when you have multiple SANs, all of them have to be validated. But since they are free and easy to automate you can just issue a certificate for every domain.
I see sounds like a sustainable thing to do but getting customers for your product is hard
No, you only need an additional name server to serve one name, and it doesn't even have to be particularly reliable or fast or anything for most uses, as long as it's available at some point for a cert renewal before the old cert expires.

So, you can just put that nameserver on any machine that has a static IP address, or even a semi-static address, like, your home router or something.
I had a scary experience in a Model S on auto-pilot going over a bridge where the car swerved left and almost hit the concrete barrier. Not entirely sure what happened but since then, I've been hesitant to use auto-pilot 100% of the time.

We also use unit and integration tests heavily, although neither test suite has enforced type checks. Some parts of the code have enforced unit and integration tests for changes, but others are things that are very difficult to unit test because they interact with systems outside of our control that don't document their low level API responses or have bugs/behaviors that we only observe when running integration tests against the real thing (and subsequently have to report issues or contribute fixes for).

We also use flake8, shellcheck, yamllint and black in our automated tests, as well as a couple of custom scripts (e.g. one that makes sure if you change the documentation you also remembered to regenerate and commit an updated index)

We also still write our tests to assume no type checking in parts dealing with external data, because we can still get badly typed data at runtime. But we also use valdation code to assert those types at the edges of the system so internal modules can assume types are correct.
Platoons help, but there is only so much space on the roads. In short even allowed 5 times as many cars won't put New York subways out of business. Environmentalists will still want to put everybody on the bus (pick any mass transit technology) even in smaller cities.

Wildcards have use cases. An example:

You have a .example-usercontent.com wildcard certificate for domains like user-1234.example-usercontent.com and you have millions of users. A wildcard certificate is appropriate because:

* LetsEncrypt rate limits are a thing

* The domains exist to leverage origin sandboxing in browsers, but are served by the same infrastructure. It's not more secure (but it is more complicated) to have more certificates here.

Generally, the assumption that two subdomains are served by independent infrastructure is often wrong. Think of things like blogger.com/blogspot.com. So the concern about compromising keys doesn't really apply.
> Until you deal with the parking problem—which is done by building truly mixed-use places where people can meet their daily needs without hopping in the car—you haven’t created true urbanism.

Daily needs means jobs for both you and your spouse, which won’t be in some random subdivision in Florida. It means schools, which don’t appear to be there either. It means the kids’ after school activities, again, missing from this plan. And if you don’t have kids or a spouse, then you should just live in the city anyway. This is an alternative to the sprawling suburban subdivision, not a downtown block.

Developers create these “drive to urbanism” layouts (like Reston Town Center in Northern Virginia) because thats what’s workable given the planning constraints of the larger system. This happens in “real cities” too. When I lived in a newly-redeveloped area of downtown DC, we still ended up driving a lot. My work was on the other side of town. The grocery store across the street was an awful, over priced Safeway. My daughter’s school was over in Georgetown, a 30 minute drive away. Driving is unavoidable unless these communities are highly self contained.
Stuff that is really really really small behaves in weird and cool ways. We can sort of tell how it works, but it's really hard to do anything with it because it is so small. These smart people found a new way of working with really small stuff that could maybe one day be used to build a new type of computers.
One of the problems with merely fewer deaths than a human operated car is that technology tends to fail in 'silly' ways.

Also at the very least an self-driving car should reach the level of a good driver, having self-driving cars cause as many deaths as drunk or inattentive drivers do nowadays isn't defensible. Especially since there's usually no explanation and nobody to hold accountable.
Commune’s are unstable, but can work fine when separate from income streams. I am aware of one that lasted 30+ years slowly dissolving as no effort was made to add new members and people slowly left or died over time.

Monastery’s demonstrates what it takes for such communities to last over hundreds of years. Effectively they must recruit, be economically viable, and avoid any single point of failure like having a specific leader.

Also, game theory is a very limited model of human behavior. That you choose to invoke it, and you choose to believe that humans are simple rational game-theoretic "players" is not in any way proof that they actually are any of these. There is a lot of observable human behavior which contradicts rational and game-theoretic models - just look at some observations from behavioral economics.

There are also plenty of scenarios in which humans do behave according to game theoretic predictions.

This is such a tired argument that I can't believe I'm repeating it, but game theory is a bit like highly school physics ("assume the cow is a sphere and there is no friction") in that it's an oversimplified model of human behavior that you can still use to make testable predictions.

Also the deviations from expected utility maximization in behavioral economics can and are being incorporated into current game theory research. See for example "Repeated Games with Endogenous Discounting" by Kochov and Song.

The point of all this is to say that you can't dismiss an argument out of hand because it appeals to game theory, on the grounds that "game theory bad".
I think this is the idea behind culdesac (no private cars or parking in development, on light rail, carshare at periphery) but we'll see how that pans out.

This is a story of the women behind a successful man. But no. Gender doesn't matter. Look at some successful start-ups. You need a founder like Claude Shannon to come up with a successful idea and another founder like Betty to fill in all the gaps and implement it.

> 1. Working from the bedroom is hell. It's fun for the first few months but then you are likely to have severe eye strain and become very sleepy.

And in addition population density is higher in Europe than U.S., menajng that the density of FM radio (and modern attempts like DAB/DAB+ etc.) and mobile cell base stations is also higher, thus those provide more competition.

Humans and bikes need even less safety space than cars.

I don't think safety space is a good criterion for predicting how widespread a means of transportation will become.

A fast mode of transportation, with a large safety space requirement, may be more efficient than other modes and/or become popular.
Might want to read the article first.

The first two words after the title are "Adam Smith". Later text confirms that it's the same person, with "The man who arguably founded modern economic theory, the 18th-century Scottish philosopher Adam Smith, popularized the idea that barter was a precursor to money."
There's like fifty caveats that go along with this statement, but this is the internet so I'm just going to skip all that.

Something like half your human brain is devoted to visual processing.

There's a tendency to think that things like language is what makes the human brain special, or our ability to plan or think abstractly, and we talk about things like "eagle eyes", but the truth is humans are seeing machines with most everything else as an afterthought.

The reason your cat will attack paint spots on glass for hours and flips the hell out about laser pointers is because their visual systems are too simple to distinguish between those and the objects that actually interest them, like insects.

Vision is not the easy part of AI.

When people envision working from home, it seems that "wearing pajamas" is a common trope.

That is not a good idea.

The thing about clothes is that they're part of a routine. I.e. I wake up, make some tea, put some fresh clothes on, turn on my computer, and now I'm in work mode. Ideally. In practice it doesn't always work like that, but it's still far better than waking up and just sitting down in front of my computer. Having a routine is really important for not getting lost.

They don't have to be business clothes or whatever, but just something fresh for the day. I'm the sort of nerd that wears chinos and a button up shirt even though I work from home and don't have video calls.

In addition, blurring work and personal life isn't good. You ideally don't want to work in the same room that you sleep, but this can't be avoided sometimes.

Fundamentally, that’s why SLOC can be useful as an estimating metric, but terrible as a control metric. SLOC, FP and so on all have their limitations, but they demonstrate that most of the effort-time in a project doesn’t go into putting hands on keyboard. Conversely, trying to monitor developer productivity with SLOC simply reintroduces the conceptual error that the estimation effort attempts to prevent.

Florida is almost entirely a place where you need a car to do anything. It is so absurdly spread-out that even driving at high speed on their high speed roads is a remarkably slow way to get anywhere. If people cannot park there, they cannot get there. Even if you built a real urban walkable neighbourhood with housing, stores, schools, offices, churches - a place where people could truly walk to all of their daily needs - the people that lived there would still need multiple cars per family in order to access the outside world. It would be like living on an island. Attempting to leave on foot would be like trying to swim across the ocean. If you don't die of dehydration or exhaustion first, you will probably killed by a shark/car before you get anywhere. Ironically, about 1 in 4 Florida drivers are uninsured. One fake town centre is merely a tiny, amusing symptom of a giant chicken-and-egg problem.
ICANN is a natural monopoly because DNS was designed to have a single, central authority. Switching to a new DNS root without ICANN's cooperation would be a monumental task, and they know it.

But setting up a new CA, while expensive and time consuming, is very doable. If Let's Encrypt somehow became as corrupt as ICANN, there'd be incentive for some organization to create an alternative.
Isn't it that when you combine two extremely low prevalence phenomenons together, you can't really make any accurate predictions because the numbers are so low that the error margin is too high? I might be wrong, but I seem to remember something to that effect. Could it be what's at play here?

Thank You!
I feel like I'm in the minority of those who love SoundCloud. It's one the very few places for indie music makers and DJs to showcase their work that otherwise may not necessarily be published via the official publishing channels. That includes e.g. long running DJ mixes, not exactly the type of material for the official release bureaucracy and associated costs.

The only problem with SoundCloud is that instead of following the Spotify model, i.e. get listeners to pay for listening, they could have done it the other way around: get makers pay some nominal fee for hosting. Which they kind of did in the beginning but gradually drifted towards the listener-subscription model. As a paid music hosting service they'd at least provide an alternative for specific class of artists, i.e. those who make music for the love of it and want to be heard via unofficial channels.

SC failed to become one. They've had some back and forth and experimentation with pricing and subscription models over the years but never settled at anything targeted clearly and unambiguously. The current offerings are confusing and inconvenient for all classes of users. There's now an all-time upload limit for non-paying makers, and ads for non-paying users. What's the point of this? Getting both makers and listeners pay you? Sounds like a poor plan to me, that leads to nowehere.
OK, so my perception may be wrong indeed.

I'm really nitpicking the theoretical aspect here, I guess. Is Lithion-ion really different from a first principle perspective? Is any battery technology not based on electrolyte principles?

See, when I look at a vapor engine, and compare it with an electrical engine, I really do have two different first principles driving motion, two different conversions of energy. When I look at a regular / convection oven (heated resistors) and compare it with a microwave oven, again two fundamentally different ways of heating a solid. Magnetic induction compared with thermodynamic heat conduction. X-ray compared with MRI. All of these are breakthroughs, using different first principles to complete the task.

I fail to see how battery technology is not all based on one and the same fundamental principle. Quoting your second link:

> “Batteries are electrochemical devices that store electrical energy by directly converting it to a chemical form.”

I'm not sure we were talking about the same thing, because your I read comment and it seems to fit my view, actually substantiates it. Am I misunderstanding these concepts?

Edit: FWIW, I was heavy daily user of portable music devices in the 1990s, and while new battery tech gave you an extra hour or so every iteration, none of it was life changing, it was a slow increment, not orders of magnitudes — a sign that we're operating on the same principles, just with more efficiency. My point was that current battery life is fantastically aided by improvements on the consumption side, much more than on the source side. I'm not claiming there's none in the latter, not at all.

Edit 2: TL;DR: I believe there is no fundamentally new physics in "battery" (storing energy), it's been the same thing for centuries (and reportedly was invented but not used in Ancient times). Unlike many other technologies like engines, ovens, body imaging, etc. Please don't hesitate to teach me more.
