I spent some time in Australia a few years ago. My sense of time and direction got totally confused, because the sun went the "wrong" direction in the sky. It was surprisingly disconcerting to me, I did not realize how much I oriented myself by the sun.

It was only made worse by the Australians driving on the "wrong" side of the road :-) I was one disoriented man.
at what environmental cost though? Say what you will about the US, it does a decent enough job at protecting the environment from business. If we poison the planet in the process of bringing millions out of poverty I think that's a net loss.

Back in the day of payphones and expensive long-distance calls, hitchhikers had a protocol for calling their parents/friends for free: they ring them up but don't say anything. The callee reads a list of expected answers (like the towns where the caller would stay), and the caller hangs up on the right answer, then dials again.

Not sure how payment worked and why you could listen for free—I'm only familiar with the method from written accounts.

I think that it can be a productive ecosystem if you have experienced technical leadership that's proactive in keeping things up to date. If you spend a bit of time every month or two keeping your dependencies up to date it's not too painless, but if you neglect it for years, then it's an absolute pain to update.

I've discovering this the hard way as I slowly upgrade our front end from AngularJS 1.4, no transpiler, gulp, and bower. Almost much nothing has been upgraded in 5 years, which is like 50 javascript years.

JS is not a great language to use if you're an independent beginner, you either have to follow a tutorial blindly to get a boilerplate setup and hope that in the 6 months since it was written nothing has changed in the libraries used and the tutorial is out of date, or you can spend hours learning how to structure a JS app.

I feel like I'm being harsh on JS. Ruby/Rails is an incredibly productive ecosystem for a beginner, but has the same problems with maintainability and upgrading if you neglect it too.

Any framework isn't productive when you're in greater technical debt than the Weimar Republic, and it's easy to write bad code in any language if you're lacking experience. Upgrading dependencies in any ecosystem is difficult if you don't touch your gemfile or package.json in half a decade. I've had the same problems upgrading our Rails app as our AngularJS app, I'm just much more qualified to handle them.

There were also no experienced Ruby/Rails or JS/AngularJS developers at my work until I joined (and there's still no experienced JS devs), and we've always been pushed to ship features, not improve performance or keep our dependencies up to date, so I've had limited opportunities to work on fixing technical debt. Not entirely sure why you'd create a product with two frameworks none of your employees have any experience in. On the plus side, with all this spare time I've had during lockdown, I've managed to make good headway in resolving a lot of that debt, beats spending my days watching Netflix or playing video games.

A bit tangential, but turings proof only works with some very strict assumptions.

- Clasical logic as the foundation for math.

- Proofs by contradiction work.

- That the church turing thesis holds.

I guess these are kinda two sides of the same coin. But still worth noting.
I live in Germany where the actual lockdown was way less severe than most other EU countries, especially in my region (which on the other hand had a very small of cases).

I did get some extra time because one of the few things that were actually closed down was my Aikido dojo. But mostly I exploited the fact that friends in Italy and Belgium could not go out at all and... I started an online RPG campaign using Discord as a platform and Mini-six for the rules.

We are having a blast - I hope that the players will like enough to keep playing even after they get back to a more normal schedule in their life (me, as the GM, I have done some up-front investment in preparing lots of content and so I think I will be able to run it even when I go back to 3/week practice).
Think about this for a moment. There are people out there who are willing to give out their full name, home address and their phone number just so they can buy a brand name sandwich. If we are willing to trade our freedoms for convenience, perhaps an Orwellian future cannot be avoided after all.
This definitely seems like one of those situations where following what the industry has been doing with regards to system behaviors is the best way to go.

Garage door manufacturers have probably seen it all at this point, and I imagine just about every behavior has a tragic story (and probably a big lawsuit) behind its being implemented.

I have one of those newer intercoms, where you first select who to call, and then it calls the correct flat. So your system wouldn't work.

But you just gave me an idea for something I'll probably never implement: an audio key. The intercom auto-responds and if the audio matches the key (hello 90s modem sounds), then it lets you in. You could add more automation on top and provide temporary keys for guests, etc. Just play the audio you received on whatsapp, it will open the door. Please someone implement this and get rich doing it so that I can just buy it. It needs to take into account when you're at home and you still want to answer the mailman.
I work for a US Stock Exchange, and some of the technologies that we rely on are not permitted in the cloud. The performance metrics we need are usually only achievable on highly tuned bare metal deployments as well so cloud is usually not an option. I guess it really depends on your workload, but I think there is a very healthy amount of production being deployed and worked on businesses own datacenter/private clouds.

Cool project! I set out to do something similar as well, but with a slight different scope. I wanted a web gallery that I can use to access all my (substantial) collection of pictures, that does not need any maintenance/work to get started. It lists directories and generates thumbnails on the fly, no database needed.

No JS would have been nice, but ended up making the content draw and re-flow in JS as I wanted to keep the aspect ratio of the thumbnails instead of showing a bunch of squares, for which a simple flexbox would have been enough.

I still have to write a decent README

Sure it is, you just need imagination. Say that you are a stalker, you (or someone delegated by you) passed near your target and got h(daykey, time), your target happens to go to the hospital for covid a while after, so you have the daykey of your target for multiple days and all of their h(day, time). You detect that it was your target that went into the hospital because one of their h(daykey, time) matches with the one that you have stored, in addition you know if your target passed nearby you/one of your friends/one of the locations where you have put some cheap bluetooth phones and the exact day and time that this happened. Intentionally infecting the target will covid will help this whole thing but it is not necessary.
I was once curious about if in a line of propellors, having the propellors rotating in the same direction (line wheels on a shared belt) or counter rotating (like interlocking gears) would produce any difference in thrust.

Sure, I guess by first step I was referring to the first thing when I sit down to start coding.

There's all the stuff that comes before actually doing that, generally, though not always, the feature is driven by some front-end requirement and may have accompanying product specification and possibly even UX designs. But I try to take those and think about what the domain concept being addressed is, rather than the shape of the data the front-end requires. Almost always the front-end and requirements will change through iteration so I find that purely mapping the FE concepts directly to the data-structure is less robust than taking a step back and thinking about the actual data without consideration for the proposed front-end design. Though the front-end can still inform aspects of the database at this stage it should only provide minor optimizations to the schema through indexes or normalization choices.

I suppose in part it's taking a domain-driven design approach and making the first step encoding the domain in the database. It has been my experience that many headaches in applications I encounter could have been avoided if the constraints had been enforced against the data at the persistence level rather than assuming the application level code will handle it correctly.

That's it exactly. Looking through the website of Ingka group they are all malls with an IKEA as the anchor store. Which makes perfect sense for IKEA group... In a normal mall the anchor store gets the best lease deals, so may as well operate both and get the extra revenue from the other leases...
How is the French revolution an example for this? That went from a somewhat absolutist monarchy (maybe we could call that "tyranny"? but the king never had sole power) to something that looked like it could have been a constitutional monarchy to mob rule relatively quickly, and then back to tyranny (and then back to monarchy, then to democracy, then to tyranny, then to democracy, then to occupation, then to democracy).

I mean obviously it is somewhat easier for a monarchy or a democracy to change in character (monarchy->tyranny) than in essence (monarchy->democracy), but a) that model doesn't account for changes in essence at all (especially not in the context of revolutions), b) there have been countless examples of monarchs that had to cede power instead of gaining it, c) I can't think of that many historic examples of actual mob rule that remained stable over a longer period.

More fundamentally, it's even questionable that we can come up with clear criteria to distinguish, say, monarchy from tyranny.

I agree with 1. and 3., but not 2.: It's basically like a password where ports are your alphabet.

Assuming you use most of the 2^16 ports, and a typical text password is based on an alphabet of ~70 characters, each knocking step is roughly equivalent to log_70(2^16) ≃ 2.61 traditional password characters.

For example, 5 steps of knocking already entail (2^16)^5 ≃ 1.2*10^24 steps to check. With 1000 attempts per second, that still means trying > 10^13 years until all combinations have been tried.
Government is not a monopoly. There are many governments. Besides sovereign countries there are regional and local divisions. Often also branches with separate powers. While not quite the same competition as companies there is certainly competition and checks and balances such that typical monopoly analysis is not really suitable.
The social sciences don't work like the hard sciences though. And the primary reason for this is because humans, unlike say, atoms or molecules, are not independent objects. They are subjects with agency and can react and change their behaviour in response to what your models predict about them. Essentially predictions can become self-fulfilling prophecies.

Another aspect of Russia taking crimea is that the people living there to a large extent welcomed it.

There are some that are pro-unification in Taiwan, but it's a minority. Most people are pro status quo, and the number that are for declaring independence is growing. The ruling party is very pro-independence (ideologically speaking, in practice they have to move slowly and maintain status quo to some degree), meaning releasing their claim over mainland China, changing name from "Republic of China" or "China" to Taiwan, seeking UN membership etc.

The other big difference is that Taiwan is quite capable of defending itself to some extent. China will win eventually, but not without devastating the island. This will affect everyone economically. China and the world. If TSMCs factories in Taiwan are destroyed, it'd have an enormous impact on world economy. The production of high-tech electronics would be stunted for years. Russia annexing crimea had absolutely no practical effect on the world.

The fact is that everyone, China included, is relatively happy with the status quo. The CCP has to make a scene now and then to appease the fragile ego of a large portion of the mainland chinese. But I really don't think they actually care that much about invading Taiwan.
