Yes, and it should also be tied to their spouse's income, their sex, gender, age, and skin color, to keep things fair. Perhaps their sibling's/ancestor's income too. Make sure you account for all these factors to keep things equal.

But if you're not able to account for all these factors, why not determine what an employee at a given level is worth to the company, and pay that amount to anybody who can successfully communicate & do the work, regardless of their circumstances or physical attributes?
When I did pentesting for a consulting firm the daily rate was £2000-2500 (depending if we had to pay reverse VAT for non UK/SM clients, and some other factors) we worked with financial firms and software companies primarily, there for remote on-site would be the same + expenses.

More bespoke services like proper red teaming, DDoS simulation IOT/connected cars/hardware were about double that.

£800 a day is the very bottom of the price scale in the UK for general SME public sector companies.
It's rare to find a large national or international business that doesn't price differently based on location. This sometimes is due to taxation difference but mostly due to regulatory differences that effect the cost to deliver. Even companies that have flat list prices, what you'll find is that discounts are offered based on a number of factors with economic location being one.

If location was the only factor that changed then I would a agree that the companies monetary exchange for work value should be the same. It's very rare that when making a move like this that location will be the only factor that changed.

100%.

Ultimately cost of labor alone isn't going to be the deciding factor, and when I say "plenty of cheap labor in Latin America" I'm not suggesting that we can save money in the short term by moving our factories there. I'm suggesting an affordable alternative, geographically closer to home, in a set of countries that (when compared to China) are smaller, more defensible, and culturally more similar to us. We have seen evidence that China's manufacturing sector includes slave labor. You can't compete with slave labor! This is why the "it's just business, save a penny where you can" mentality totally misses the point.

We have to spend some money to get out of this mess. For a major corporation, this would mean spending less on buybacks in order to build new manufacturing facilities elsewhere. For our government, this would mean coordinating with our companies and foreign ally governments to manage a concerted effort at creating new manufacturing ecosystems in mutually-agreed-upon regions that offer logistical and tax advantages.

With respect to your point about efficient, short and well integrated supply chains: large corporations have to be the first movers. They are the only ones who can begin to cultivate the seedlings of regional manufacturing ecosystems developed around the production of a particular type of product.

There are large negative externalities to cross-pacific shipping, and these externalities have to be considered when we answer the question, "how much money do we save by getting our stuff from China?". One such externality is the cost of US-taxpayer-subsidized shipping from China.

Another is that both sides suffer from invasive species that affect billions of dollars of revenue in tangential industries. The spotted lanternfly was introduced to Berks County, Pennsylvania, in a shipment of stone from China a few years ago. It now threatens billions of dollars of economic productivity from the hardwood, fruit, hops, and wine industries in that state alone. This is but one example of a greater phenomenon. If you source closer to home, some of the invasive species risk gets mitigated.

That's like saying that the House of Representatives would be far more effective if it took away the right to vote from Representatives you don't agree with.

That would simply be the end of the UN. Countries are sovereign and if they lose their voice in the UN they would just leave it and ignore it.
I remember spending ages on various ways to implement "the golden layout" or whatever it was called. Edit: Holy Grail. One header on top, then three columns, and then a footer. And the middle of the three columns should scale with screen width and screen height, such that the rightmost column was at the edge, and the footer was at the bottom of the screen if content was less than screen height.

And then a-list-aparts "faux columns" to make the columns seem to have the same height.

the cost varies widely.

$8k - $12k for a "platform" that hires 100% outsourced pentesters of highly variable skill and quality, and takes no liability themselves, and whose pentesters are located in developing countries and good luck getting damages out of them, ever, regardless of their platform "reputation" pretend points. also communication tends to be difficult as the norm is ESL.

$25k for a US-based boutique firm with in-house pentesters of vetted high quality, who accept liability and against whom you can actually expect to enforce an NDA and/or extract other damages. source code and design audit starts at about this price.

then, you can run your own program on top of the bounty platforms, however scope and focused work is not going to happen (a lot of the work is boring), and it will cost you a lot of your own time. the money you save DIY is not worth your own time investment.

if you actually want a good pentest, go with a boutique, quality firm. if you want something to give to an auditor or to meet a VSA, go with cheap.

There hasn’t been a nuclear war since the Cleveland Rams last NFL championship. The correlation is just as apt.

As far as preventing war in general, the Korean War, Vietnam, Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, the Falklands, two gulf wars, Russian invasion of Ukraine, etc, etc. UN mediation is no more effective than any other major power mediation efforts in history, in fact it can be argued the UN has been less effective.

The key method to avoiding war is to spread democracy, which is why the UN is such a failure, and it’s charter is the prime reason.

That seems backwards. I think GP's point that the critics on HN are themselves being uncharitable towards the site (or maybe just missed the explanation) by acting like it's a nefarious bait and switch, rather than considering the possibility that the author of the site is just trying to save on computing costs.

He or she's not lecturing anyone about economics. In fact, if we want to talk about charity, I think that accusation is about the least charitable thing I've seen so far on this thread!

I think it's important to figure out why you found some piece of work fulfilling. I think a lot of people don't have a good understanding of why they like doing the things they do.

I know a lot of people who say, "I do this job that I hate, and I have this other hobby that I truly love, but if I were to make my hobby my job, I think I'd learn to hate my hobby." I used to say it about a number of things. I love to cook, or I love to paint, or whatever, but I work as a programmer because it's what I can stand to do for work.

And then one day I had gotten so sick of working for terrible companies that I thought I couldn't be a programmer anymore. Then I spent about a year kicking around a bunch of bullshit ideas, trying to find work that wasn't programming, that was "more fulfilling". And ultimately ended up doing a lot of programming in that time, because I had falsely concluded that my terrible work experiences were just "the nature" of working as a programmer.

I didn't hate programming. I hated working for consulting companies ran by MBAs. What I eventually realized was that I love programming. If I had been a graphic designer in those same situations, it would have made life even worse. Programming itself was the thing that I was enjoying that mollified my discontent with my employment situation. Any other job would not have been as satisfying as programming, which is where the concept that I'd "learn to hate" photography or music or teaching or whatever.

Some people I know do the work because they love solving problems for their users. Some people do it because they love learning new things all the time. But I don't think they really know that about themselves. I think they have a surface understanding that, somewhere around this area of this job that I'm doing, there is something here that I like. But they don't have their thumb on what part, exactly, that they like.

I think it's very important to pin it down because I also think it's very important to be able to recognize if it is no longer the thing you love. It's perfectly valid to change your mind about what you love. You might start out on your career loving the intellectual challenge of programming, and you might learn over time that you love interfacing with users even more. But if you haven't taken the time to deeply introspect on what particular aspect of the work it is that you are enjoying, you'll lump it all together as "I love software development", and then wonder why things have gotten bad when you're still a software developer but are now working on database schemas rather than requirements gathering.

You can't know how to fix a thing if you don't know how it's broken. And you can't know it's broken if you don't know what it should look like when its fixed.
I love immutability and Datomic as much as the next Clojure programmer. But this sounds quite a lot like post-hoc reasoning.

For example, there's quite a few situations where you require mutability in bank data (e.g. with government requirements, or when you want to rollback fraudulent trading). Sure, both are solvable with Datomic, but they don't scream "huge advantage with an immutable datastore".

And there are plenty of highly competitive industries where code quality matters, but they're not flocking to functional programming.

Don't get me wrong, I think functional programming is an absolutely great way to structure and think about programming (and have coded professionally in Clojure for the last 5 years or so). But I suspect the prevalence of FP in some industries is as much chance/social reasons than it is for some inherit superiority in the approach.

> If you plan to migrate your customers to IPv6 then you are a lunatic.

Well...

Comcast made IPv6 on-by-default to all residential customers some time ago (IIRC) and available (not sure if on-by-default) to all business customers. [1] Verizon requires all LTE devices to support v6 [2] and achieved >70% penetration in 2016 [3] (I'm too lazy to find a more recent statistic.) T-Mobile launched v6only in 2014 [4] and hit >90% in 2018. [5]

> Eventually, of course, the dam is going to break and IPv6 will become ubiquitous. ISPs will decide that buying blocks of IPv4 addresses costs more than providing new customers with IPv6 plus some kind of carrier-grade NAT for legacy IPv4 addresses. More website hosting companies will support IPv6 in response, and suddenly IPv4 will be so last-decade.

In short, that happened.

>Cool project, but what about power management? What happens if the PC being controlled crashes and does not let you reboot it using keyboard shortcut?

Yeah, that's one of the limitations. TinyPilot can't control power for the target computer.

I don't know of any way to manage power without connecting the Pi to the target machine's motherboard, but that increases complexity significantly. I'm using this for a homelab, so it's easy for me to walk over and cycle power if that ever comes up, but for this to support more remote scenarios, I'd need to address this.
I switched from a KVM to a USB switch a few years back, and haven't had any real issues with it. I don't think it was expensive either, just a standard USB 3 switch with only 2 ports. Occasionally it takes more than a few seconds after pressing the button for the switch to happen, but that's about it.

I wonder what would be the advantages of using an FPGA to test a CPU design - compared to relying on a (presumably more accurate) computer-based simulation. (I understand the reasons one might want to implement a CPU in an FPGA.)
As I mentioned, I don't think any single prompt can demonstrate the presence of true reasoning. If the prompt isn't shown to broadly generalize, it might just be doing a text match to something that was said before on the depths of the internet. You can see this in the next section; Kevin Lacker gets GPT-3 to demonstrate it knows some basic trivia questions, but it "knows" any prompt with the same textual structure as a basic trivia question, even if the prompt is nonsense. This strongly suggests that it's parsing out key words and doing a lookup on them rather than accessing a consistent internal model.

How to Start a Robot Revolution
The problem with this will be the overhead of transferring data to/from the FPGA, which once accounted for often causes doing the computation on the CPU to make more sense. It's obviously not a show-stopper, since GPUs have the same problem, but are still useful, but it's hard to find a workload that maps well to this solution.
But that number is nonsensical in determining what actions we should take - it only has some questionable value if we look at it after the whole thing is over and the virus is long gone. Not everyone in America has been exposed to this virus, and many of those who have been exposed haven't run the full course of the disease. It's as useful as saying that in August of last year no one was infected and so it clearly would never kill anyone.

You can look at our equivalent, the UK Government Digital Service which hires a lot of tech people. You could probably learn the relevant stuff on the job.

Cybersec I have zero qualifications in, but it seems also like a lot of practical jobs (e.g. pen testing, white-hat stuff) are also more experience focused. Presumably it does help to have some background on the theory, which you might get asked in interviews. But presumably there's a large spectrum of work here, from very theoretical audit/provably secure-type stuff, to more practical work where you try and identify obvious holes in software.
