When people talk about companies using k8s too soon, they are talking about deploying it on your own, not using a hosted service like GCE. That’s a whole new ball game and takes 100x the effort.
The logic of it is that you could increase taxes to pay for it and above a certain income level, 100% (or more) of it would be clawed back in taxes.
Put your sensitive data on a microSD card and put the card in your mouth while in the checkpoint, the detector won’t be sensitive enough to pick it up (it doesn’t detect fillings and they are around the same size).

If you get in trouble, just swallow.
Neat idea. I would definitely use it, if you promise that that experts would NOT be from low cost countries like India, Romania etc (why? Because as a person from these countries, I want to learn parenting methods from advanced countries.)
>Automobiles

Automobiles were developed over hundreds of years. What was the skepticism there?

>Lightbulb

Edison "invented" the first commercial bulb in 1879. The first electric lights were created in the early 1800s.

>Printing press

People were trying to find ways to print books for centuries. Copying them was laborious. Some random monk claiming hand-writing to be morally superior doesn't change that.
Basically everyone publicly announced who's at Ethos is or used to be at ICANN or PIR in some capacity. You don't need that much due diligence when you already know exactly what's happening there because you were there a few months ago in a ruling capacity.
Salesforce "Enterprise" is $1800/user/year [0], and presumably large enterprises are negotiating better rates than the published ones. Every single employee would need to be using five and a half packages like this at full list price to hit $10k/year.
It's not terribly common anymore, but people used to pay for the Coldfusion programming language...well at least a compiler/interpreter for it. Outside of some third-party things like OpenBluedragon and Railo, if you wanted to deploy Coldfusion in any capacity, you had to pay Macromedia/Adobe for a license.

I don't know of any companies that are still using Coldfusion and I haven't had to touch it since 2012 (thank god), but it certainly was a common thing for awhile.
I am not pessimistic, I am a scientist that just read the literature. We have now extinction levels 1000-10000 higher than background, this more than previous mass extinctions and expected to go 10 fold worst in the next decades. Moreover we are just a few years to enter a truly non linear regime in the Earth climate dynamics. These are our life support systems on earth and they are about to fall. Swift global action on these points is therefore required for our short term survival.

These people propose solutions for the wealthy. They are BTW ruining my dream of seeing more stars than satellites in the sky. (I’m a material scientist, coatings won’t work)

Therefore I heavily disagree with you: short term survival requires protecting our life support systems here on earth, namely climate and biodiversity (the Earth-System).

I am also very disappointed that people use the word “colonisation” so often, a brief look at history support my doubts.

I don’t mind exploring the solar system when the above issues are fixed, but this has to be done in a scientific way, I.e. exploration, not for a blind colonialist purpose.
Because generally, older people have more experience than the young, which translates into knowledge about the things that really matter.

When your life is falling apart or you have to make a life-altering decision, you ask your parents or your grandparents, not some teenager. If have something that absolutely, positively must be done, you give it to a senior, not a green newbie.

That's reality. Ignore it at your peril.
I'm aware. But Kerckhoff's principle is just saying that your mechanism of encryption shouldn't be obscured. It doesn't change that I can't define 'obscure' in a way that doesn't make it a mechanism (in itself inobscure) of obscuring data.

Also, there are plenty of historical ciphers that fall foul of Kerckhoff, I don't think we can say retrospectively that they weren't done for security, and in many cases were probably totally adequate for some time, if not their lifespan.
A lot of decision making is made by staffers. They rely on staffers to due the heavy lifting, and then the elected public official goes through the motion of reading statements written by staffers, introducing legislation, etc. Parliamentarians are quite important to Congress' day-to-day functioning. Also, as a public official, your party's platform already outlines what sides of issues you are on.
>Nothing complicated about it.

If it was so easy, why are the companies in the article "fretting"? Because putting values on "good", "opportunity" and "makes sense" (not even counting the fact you have no control over the SaaS raising prices or going out of business in the future) is harder than we can spend $400/month or $50/month.
I also did not find org-roam super easy to set up, but after a second try I have it running and am enjoying it.

Edit: I tried it a month ago - before installation was more than just (load)'ing the file. Now there are nicely documented use-package instructions and a layer for spacemacs
That's like saying that CPUs will be run over by Linux.
They showed the flat logo as a badge on their new concept car, right when they announced it. Maybe they are backtracking now, but it seems pretty clear their original intent was to put it on the cars.
I like this idea as it seems a quicker way to get help. I live in Canada so I have access to good quality care. My wife and I are currently dealing with a 5 year old that has regressed in her potty training for some reason (and it's causing a lot of stress in our household). When I think about getting help, I suspect we will have to make an appointment with our family physician, who will then refer us to a child psychologist who will likely be booking a few weeks (months?) out. Getting on a chat with a trained expert would be a nice way to start and evalute the problem.

Because Greek y and u are the same, "cyber" is from the same word as "kube". "Cybernetics" was supposed to be the art of piloting, but it was very loosely defined and the term was deliberately overhyped.
Btw, I have shells, keyboards, mice, pens for my Android device and use all of them.

I think some of the X capability would be amazing on mobile.

We have hobbled mobile. Not completely as I know I can do really powerful things still, and when I do people gawk and point and usually ask a lot of questions.

I remain unconvinced this is all a good idea. We will see in a decade or two.

Maybe.
Agreed.

Just think of the “maintenance” problem. Equipments do fail eventually
"The right graphical client/server model is to have an extensible server. Application programs on remote machines can download their own special extension on demand and share libraries in the server. Downloaded code can draw windows, track input eents, provide fast interactive feedback, and minimize network traffic by communicating with the application using a dynamic, high-level protocol."

Huh, that's surprisingly prescient.

Applications on remote machines can download their own special JavaScript on demand and share code in the server. Downloaded code can draw windows, track input events, provide fast interactive feedback, and minimize network traffic by communicating with the application using HTTP.
There could be other factors involved too, like the short-termness of the study. One year isn't a lot of time, and it's definitely enough to coast on savings and take a break from a job you hated until you get bored and/or need to take on another one.

Also, more so than UBI (or perhaps as a compliment to one another), IMO reforms to labour policy are due. The 40 hour work-week has been standard for a long time, but if we have the productivity surplus to even consider UBI, why not consider a 4-day workweek, for example?
As an example... for my wife, her salary was depressed because her boss thought that I make good enough money that she doesn't really need it. I think a lot of women still receive extremely slanted peer reviews due to gender biases (she's really catty, while he tends to raise good arguments), relationship drama (I mean, she's a good worker, but she turned down a drink with me... I don't know how good her judgement is), straight up appearance judgements (Oh, don't give the raise to nancy, she'll have a cushy life with looks like that, barbara could use it more), and harassment (I don't know about that raise - hey what are you doing friday?).

I think that everyone feels like we've totally solved gender discrimination forever while it's still really deeply seated in our culture.
Valve and other flat organizations arguably qualify. Various tiny small startups may qualify depending on what people mean by managers.
Snap for sure! But that's more just for close friends, which I already know pretty well. Twitter isn't even close to TikTok in providing emotional connections to people you don't even know, imo.

All of our experts are in the United States partially because I have a firm understanding of the various licenses and credentialing they hold, which isn't consistent across countries. Our team of experts is truly amazing! I would love for you to check us out and let me know what you think.
I think first successful implementation of Client-Server OS (and wide adoption in the banking industry) was BTOS/CTOS that was developed by Burroughs Technologies (BTOS) and then continued by Convergent Technologies (CTOS). It was sweet to works with - with modular Hardware and built in debugger on the CLI!
I'm an author of child-development books and spend a lot of time keeping abreast of research-backed parenting advice, so this is really interesting to me.

It seems like you need to position this service very carefully, since there is likely not a bright line between some of the issues parents might come to you for, versus seeing a pediatrician, behavioral health provider, or other health care provider.

And indeed, traditionally that's where parents would go with some of these issues (sleep issues, tantrums, etc.).

But your FAQs emphasize that you're not a health care service -- yet I wouldn't be surprised if parents rely on you to at least bring up when a health care provider should be brought into the loop.

Just out of curiosity, what would you say this service is intended to replace? Are your prospective subscribers people who would otherwise be reading books, poring through Internet advice, consulting friends and pediatricians, etc., and this service just saves them time versus the DIY alternative? Or are you courting people who have no idea how to do that stuff and their alternative is just suffering through it as best they can?
>Imagine this:

>You’re an 18 year old with just a high school degree. You immigrate to a new country that speaks a different language, and start work with some of the brightest engineers in the world.

>Soon after, you’re thrust into management. Now, you’re leading teams of people who are 10 or 20 years older than you, working on one of the fastest growing internet companies of the last decade.

I can't bring myself to. It's too sweet a daydream, a fantasy that not a soul on this planet would have deigned to make reality for a black boy like myself, credentials be damned.
Most employees' salaries are not 100k.
Since C# 8.0 we have not only nullable value types (e.g. `int?` or `Nullable<int>`), but nullable reference types as well (e.g. `string?`). This means it's possible to have a maybe monad that does not require an extra generic type like `Maybe<T>`. Instead we can implement the monad purely via extension methods on `T?`.

Due to the C#'s awkward dichotomy between value and reference types this involves some busy work, so I created a small package for interested parties.
The people in Singapore, NY and SF usually represent a very small slice of a given industry.

NY for example has lots of high paying finance jobs, but without all the industries those bankers serve, those finance jobs wouldn’t exist.
Anyone interested in the development of the ARPANET and its transformation into the Internet we know today owes it to themselves to read Where Wizards Stay Up Late by Hafner and Lyon - it’s a great read and the audiobook isn’t bad either.
Not sure if you are being facetious, but that's in fact the law. The board is a fiduciary of shareholder (investor) money. Is that a great idea for society? Not sure, until it changes we live in the world we live in.

And on the productivity point, that makes a good theoretical case but it is just not demonstrated by historical data. In the US, in the past 50 years, it even has a name (the pay-productivity gap or the wage gap). You can look at productivity vs wages since 1970 and see how they have not correlated. Further, you can go into income and wealth inquality growth over the same time (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_inequality_in_the_Unite...) and see how the wealth generated by the productivity gains has been highly concentrated in the top 0.1% and 0.01% wealthiest. Some people will talk about real or nominal wages (adjustments with something called the Implicit Price Deflator) that show wages purchasing power increasing, but I think one can look at costs of home, college, and medical care and other critical things in social mobility that have increased in cost far exceeding inflation as complications to that idea.
Was just reading a long list of complaints about poor software quality from a variety of industries' vendors. Might be some good opportunities in there. https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/fdorvf/scum_of_th...
Trying to stop technological progress by legislative measures seems to be much harder.
So you're writing on HN instead of working more because you're lazy and less qualified? Or do you voluntarily choose to spend part of your life not working and doing other things that you find enjoyable?

TL;DR: go away troll.
They're not free to choose the method of fulfillment at all. They can't stop at 7-11 on the way, nor can they complete the route with a rickshaw, nor can they subcontract it. They can't pick up additional passengers except by Uber's explicit permission.

That freedom reduces to "they're free to optimize the route to get there quickly" which is a freedom you have at just about any job. I can decide how to code most efficiently, but does that really make me more contractor-like?
And that is why X is kind of amazing. They thought it all through.

Today, it is a game of which pieces make the most sense, and whether multi user graphical computing should be a thing.

We know it can. X did all that.

Should it?

Do they need to be 62 though? Without having looked, my ignorant guess is that it could be reduced by an order of magnitude, it's just that doing so would take time that no one has, so the simpler choice is just to shovel the complexity into K8 instead of dealing with the complexity of reducing the number of apps.
You could consider the flexible app engine
GitHub changes how authorship of sqush commits are attributed, breaks workflows
In case it's helpful: we're going to make a new HN API that will be much easier to use. The idea is that adding something like "json/" to any HN URL will return a JSON version of that page.

Curiously enough, we should also be able to eliminate the pagination of comments by then as well. Both changes are waiting on some software work that we expect to improve performance significantly. I don't know when this will all be done, but I hope it's this year.
As I pointed before, lifting any "secret" key of any chip is quite trivial to a semiconductor professional.

It's part of a job of an IC engineer to be able to tap arbitrary metal layer on the device with microprobes to "debug" it, and this is something quite routine in a process of a microchip development.

Any such measures can only deter people without access to an IC development lab.
Anecdotal too but the only car that has left me stranded ever was a bmw.

I love the older bmws for the driving experience but they require so much more maintenance than say a Lexus. The newer bmws meanwhile seem to be geared much more to the luxury market than driving enthusiasts (eg very few manual choices).
You threw out $1000 a month, any reason?

Different proposals use different amounts, $1k a month happens to be in the Yang proposal (Freedom Dividend) which was funded largely from a consumption tax: https://freedom-dividend.com/

A conservative proposal ($6.5k-$10k a year, Charles Murray) might be largely funded on cuts to existing programs: https://www.wsj.com/articles/a-guaranteed-income-for-every-a...
Split tasks from your knowledge base. Archive tasks/projects aggressively.
Wonder if the communication structure could be replicated for dealing with the numerous other serious existential threats our species faces.

I wish the Illuminati was real. That would mean someone was in control.
I’m confused as to how this works.. this is something you install to replace iOS (and if so, how.. a jailbreak like mechanism)? Or is this an OS inside of an app?
Parent of 3 under 5 here. My personal view –
This would only add more pressure to children and parents. Whatever happened to trusting your own instincts? Perhaps as children all grow and develop in such different ways and rates in the early years the best solution is not to try and 'fix' children via experts.

Many parents might be crying out for this kind of service, but I certainly would not be one of them. Hope that helps.
> Its clearly corruption.

You are going overboard and using hyperbole with a statement like that. (And clearly? Seriously...)

> I wonder if ethos would be so interested if the price caps still existed

Price caps do exist. It's called the market. And non-profits can pay an increase in price just like they do when they buy every other thing they use (even trash can liners from Amazon).

Plenty of costs go up year after year and even if competition are impractical to switch vendors or sources. Nothing about a non-profit makes it so super special that it should have some special status.

One very important last thing. Trivial now for a non-profit to lock in 10 years of registration at the existing rate and then worry later about what happens.

I love the way this is always being poised as 'poor non profits feel sorry for them they are on a good mission they get special treatment and some kind of pass'.

Take a look at the money pissed away (all on file publicly) and then come back and tell me how bad it would be if the domain was $15 instead of $10 etc.
Does that mean 5 out of 5 women are biased against other women, or only 4 out of 5?
Two Lovely Talks from POPL 2020 about Real-World Bugs
Work hours, business hours, and sleep hours in most locations will still be tied roughly to sunrise/noon/sunset.

People are still going to want uniform event times within an area--almost no one wants businesses to open 50 seconds later in Seattle than in Redmond, for example.

We will still end up with strips separated by longitude boundaries, with events synchronized within each strip. We'll probably still synchronize each strip so that events are one hour or one half hour later than the strip to their east.

To answer questions like "is it too late to call my friend in <X> now?" where X is someplace outside your strip, you need the offset of your strip from UTC and the offset of your friend's strip. From the difference of those, and the UTC time of normal bed time in your strip, you can figure out if it is probably past bedtime in your friend's strip.

These "strips" are pretty much the same as our current "time zones".
One of the major sources of bullshit jobs are self-annihilating professions, like lawyers or advertising. Monsanto sues Exxon for a billion dollars, Exxon countersues, they spend ten years in court and then settle for 10% of what they each spent on lawyers. Coke and Pepsi each spend a billion dollars on advertising to cancel each other out.

If people had more "disincentive to work" then getting people to work would require paying them more money. Jobs that self-cancel their own profession could then hire fewer people industry-wide and result in a net productivity boost, since whatever they do in the alternative can't be more useless than what they were doing.
If they like their current house they'll work hard to pay for it.
If they can't find a job or don't like their current home that much they can use their UBI to move and make room for a more productive citizen to move into the city. This makes the allocation of housing more efficient.
Yes you used to have to pay for your development tools (borland was a big player in the space). Even microsoft tools weren't free
Valve is the only one that I've heard of but without manager there need to be a lot of internal politics to get your work done.

Agreed. Less screen time is better and I am more thoughtful reading a physical medium.
At the minimum a lawyer and a technical audit. GDPR compliance is not free and for a local news station in Buffalo it's probably just not worth it.
@insomnie Nicely done! Are your hopes to really take this to the next level? It would be awesome to see.

Proper export is definitely hard to solve. It's one thing to export bits of color and positioning. But, really making an export that devs can use, and includes the stuff that mkchoi212 mentions, is a definite challenge.
The terminal can optionally catch some characters and convert them to signals. By default, ^C sends SIGINT, ^\ sends SIGQUIT, and ^Z sends SIGTSTP. Programs can disable that for their own purposes (stty -isig) and you can rebind them to other characters if you want (stty intr, stty quit, stty susp) but I don't know why anyone would these days.
Like the brilliant social engineer Jacque Fresco said, we should just give everyone what they need to live for free in what he called a Resource Based Economy. That is even better than giving them money. I highly recommend his book "The best that money can't buy".
Another of my favourites was the simple "Better Late than Never".
The examples specifically used above (garbage removal, plumbing) pay very well. I'd say they're valued appropriately for how little training they require.

Well cannabis and alcohol are two way different beasts. It is true that both reduce your reaction times, but cannabis doesn't really mess too much with your motor skills. Obviously this depends on dosage and other factors and you really shouldn't drive high or drunk but I'd rather have someone drive me somewhere high than drunk. Alcohol makes you think you're hot shit and invincible which is extremely dangerous behind the wheel.
The new guy can suggest a rebranding, but I'm sure the CEO and board will have something to say about it/final approval.
