They probably have some threshold for rolling the block up to the domain, and dreamwidth hit it.

Alternatively, it was a fat-finger.
Yes, any government when you account for overall reach. Just because some governments have censored more content to date, doesn’t mean they’re more powerful than the US tech monopolies.

If a link can’t be shared on Facebook, Google, or Twitter, it may as well not exist in most of the world.
Redundancy and Correlation Analysis in Data Science – Python Programming
While I do enjoy using my Pinebook Pro I usually grab the iPad or Thinkpad, but the pinebook does get a good amount of use.
The pinebook is faster than i figured, but it is slow although not annoying slow. Storage is slow and they have m.2 adapters if you are cool with more power usage.

The ultimate number one thing to do with this device is turn off tap to click. With that off the trackpad is okayish but still crap. i actually enjoy tap to click on Apple and Thinkpad trackpads. The keyboard is good enough and better than most laptops. not mechanical keyboard good but good in a 50g sponge-ish way. Display is a typical 1080p matte IPS screen (aka a minimum requirement for display specs for some but still within the range although at the low end.)

I will say it is valuable to have as a developer. I find it helpful to work off of a slow device sometimes to test how your widget will work as you might run into issues with timers or other weirdness, and aarch64 is somewhat becoming more common - so it might be good to test on that platform too.
It doesn't work for every use case, that doesn't make it worthless. I.e. if your homepage has (as here) 30TB traffic in a short time, that's not just a "frontpage of HN".

Remote work is not necessarily a good thing for the worker
I wholeheartedly agree! I think this is a stumbling block that all too many folks encounter and then give up on seeing the idea as a solution to climate change altogether, but there's a rather clever fellow named Klaus Lackner who frames the solution in precisely these terms. Air Capture is a waste removal problem with financially viable solutions today... It's really just about getting the right diffusion of cost.

I found out about him and his uplifting work through an appearance on the podcast Manifold [1]. But you can also learn about his research directly through ASU [2, 3].

Personally, it made me feel like the problem was far more tractable than I previously intuited.

You admit that there are possible cases where human rights were violated and yet you see no problem with that - that goes directly against our constitution and our natural rights as humans. So far there has been no accountability for the Feds.

"Typically, police fire the agent once or twice to clear crowds and encourage people to move away from an area, said Michelle Heisler, the medical director of Physicians for Human Rights. But in Portland, federal agents have been unleashing the chemicals repeatedly for hours. This sustained cascade makes it difficult for peaceful demonstrators to avoid being hit and runs the risk of ensnaring bystanders in the area, she said."

I find it sad that you hold the symbolism of a building over the lives and fair treatment of your countrymen.
Wikipedia> Soot forms during incomplete combustion from precursor molecules such as acetylene. It consists of agglomerated nanoparticles with diameters between 6 and 30 nm.

So yes, soot are nanoparticles, but that doesn't mean all nanoparticles are soot.

> The biggest gripe is that everything feels sluggish. Alt-tabbing between Firefox and a terminal takes one second, as does switching between Firefox tabs. As an extreme example switching between channels in Slack takes five to ten seconds. It is unbearably slow.

This is a hidden downside of writing code that's only just fast enough to work. It may feel fine for you, but anyone building a new computer will have to match your computer's performance, or everything will feel sluggish. We're raising the bar for new hardware way higher than it needs to be.
Anecdotally, it's at least partially the food. I was a little overweight when I moved to the US, and now I'm full blown fat. My lifestyle (aside for food), didn't change.

The main difference is availability and price, especially the latter. A decent lunch near my office in my home country was 20-30 bucks (converted in USD), and I made X/year. Now I make 3-4+ times X, and you can get more food than I can eat at shit like Panda Express for 6-8 bucks. So vs my income, it's almost 10 times cheaper.

If it wasn't for health concerns, it no longer made sense for me to cook. So I just had delivery/takeout almost every day after I moved (switching country is stressful, so I was happy to get all the time back I could get). Then the health issues cropped up. Now I'm trying to dial it back, but its tough.

I know a _lot_ of people who had similar things happened to them after they moved here, and anecdotally again, one of them moved back and started losing weight super fast, without really trying.

China has 1.4 billion people.

Facebook has over 3 billion users.

Gmail has over 2 billion active users. All their products combined probably have more than 3 billion.

US has 350 million people.

By those numbers alone, aren't tech companies more powerful arbitrators?

But that's a bad metric. We should talk about enforcement rather than raw numbers. Government's interest and design won't allow it to censor expressions in the same way that private companies [0] do. Private companies can filter anything and since tech companies are digital, the enforcement itself can scale a lot more than government. Government maintains some sort of appeal system while tech companies don't have to.

Algorithms responsible for gmail filter billions of mails daily probably. Obviously, not all of it can be called censorship as majority of it is spam but anything wrongfully filtered is censorship, no? That's going to be a huge number that can't scale offline in enforcement.

"The goal of this paper is to argue that the brain faces a similar challenge of overfitting, and that nightly dreams evolved to combat the brain's overfitting during its daily learning....Sleep loss, specifically dream loss, leads to an overfitted brain that can still memorize and learn but fails to generalize appropriately."

This is a beautiful idea. Will have to read the whole paper to understand how they support this claim.
I believe that thing does stuff like making sure Facebook can access the link and checking OpenGraph tags and so on, so you can see how Facebook will "preview" links to your site if people post them.

Amazon gets away with high bandwidth pricing because almost all their customers are businesses with high revenue per byte served. If you want to serve large assets economically you have to look elsewhere.

Bandwidth on Oracle Cloud is $0.0085/GB with the first 10TB free each month, so this would have cost only $170. Alternatively bandwidth on Backblaze B2 costs $0.01/GB, but is free out to Cloudflare, so this traffic would have been completely free.
The app is well worth downloading, and given how much time I've wasted just futzing around in it, I was more than happy to pay a few bucks to unlock the additional features. Really superb.
It’s insane.

You spelled "profitable" wrong.
It's a quite small sum in AWS terms, loosing a customer could easily cost them more in future revenue. And especially for bandwidth I'd assume their actual cost is way below the billed cost, so refunding it is cheap.

I once ordered an inner-tube for my roadbike, amazon sent me a box of 6, I opened an issue to get 5 returned and they just said "nah, keep em".

In addition to what I mentioned, the pbp is faster than a pi4, so there's that too.

What's more surprising is that he works at Redhat on Kubernetes it seems, rookie mistake.
That still doesn't make sense. They take it is a forgone conclusion that volume increases will _eventually_ result in cognitive benefits, but provide no evidence or sources to support that notion. Of course, it seems to intuitively make sense that "bigger brain means smarter", but in a science article I would imagine they would be more rigorous about substantiating things.

In my direct experience being in SV startups for over 10yrs, this is also true for all major tech companies. They all abuse their platform power to enter into a new market segment. Just a few days ago this journal was published: https://www.wsj.com/articles/amazon-tech-startup-echo-bezos-...
That strikes me as small, because CDNs are often used for software downloads and updates. Think Steam, Windows Update, OSX, Xbox Live, PSN, etc, etc. Those files are regularly larger than 5GB.

Obviously those customers have negotiated deals with the CDNs, but if there's a 5GB hard limit it sounds like Cloudflare doesn't want to compete there.

I'm not sure why I'm getting downvoted, I don't think my comment was inflammatory.

Getting 7,000 km of cabling on or below the moon’s surface and maintaining it (no storms or weather, but meteorites and radiation) may be the better choice, long-term, but I doubt it’s doable short-term.

Edit: it also won’t completely solve the power outage problem. The moon doesn’t receive direct sunlight at all during lunar eclipses, which can be over an hour.
Not on the scale of "we need to move the bulk of the energy from Texas to New York for 3 hours, then when the sun sets shift state-level power supply routing from the cornbelt to cover the drop."

Handling a plant going offline is totally different from the logistics of shuttling variable regions of production across the entire country.

If the companies don't have assets in the EU that can be affected by EU prosecution, then the GDPR is not enforceable. It might be possible to prosecute and trial management, but again this has only consequences if they enter EU jurisdiction or if they are extradited. Such issues and questions always arise with laws whose reach is extraterritorial. Keep in mind that the US has a fair number of these laws as well.

So 20k Rav4 primes vs 800k? Teslas made in 2021 (not sure exact date Texas will start producing)?

If the car is any good, 20k should mean you can't really get your hands on it without paying over MSRP. If the car is a dud.. well, you won't want it anyway

It is crazy. Not a house, but friend had a baby in SF/Bay Area. Neither the hospital, doctor or insurance would tell them how much the delivery would cost, not even an estimate. It took a whole year after their hospital visit to get the bill, it was $85k for a c-section and 3 days at the hospital. Fortunately their insurance took care of most of the bill. But can you imagine getting a surprise bill for $85k a year after the fact? Or not having insurance? Terrifying!
I think it is underestimated how complicated it is to deal with cloud services. You can do a lot with minimal training and doc reading. But these wholes in the formal understanding of how everything operates creates these kinds of vulnerabilities.

Everything can have side effects in the cloud. You can set up a cheap EC2 type T feet, and without managing your cpu usage, be charged a fair amount in unlimited burst credits (which is the default for terraform for instance).

You can quickly setup a WordPress instance with cloudfront and a invalidation Plug-in and be charged 6000 USD unadvertedly (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amazon-cloudfront-invali...)

You can set up lambda triggers and quickly do a proof of concept for an app, but forget to correctly dimension your mem usage and be charged more than you need.

Cloud requires careful policy and topology consideration. There are many simple blocks that forms a complex mesh with opaque observability of potential vulnerabilities in both access and billing. Cloud is nice but it requires time and care. And with the shared responsibility model, you are responsible for that.
I know there were some test engines, but none every flew to my knowledge. The problem is they spit out radioactive matter over everything they fly over and expose the occupants to a lot of radiation (since you can only contain the radiation so much when you have weight limits to make). They are badass though.

Your post is pretty fair and I don't have an issue with it but I do have an argument (albeit not a very convincing one) for why somebody might take issue with a word like irregardless. I'm sure we've all experienced the frustration in an argument where somebody will point to a less comprehensive dictionary that doesn't document your particular or explicit usage of a term and use that to say you're wrong, but the opposite is occasionally true where people will take popular usage or a dictionary entry of a term that might be incorrect or used in a way that is incorrect and use that to justify their continued usage of the term. The former is frustrating because both parties may understand and come to terms with each other but one is shirking their responsibilities in an argument, the latter can be frustrating because there may be a genuine difficulty in communication until the common usage or dictionary is brought out to clear up the confusion.

There's a strong case to be made that the purpose of a dictionary is to aid communication by describing the usage of words so I think it's clear that 'irregardless' deserves a mention although with a warning on usage, which seems to be the case here with Merriam-Webster describing it as non-standard and the OED going a step further and saying it's not correct. Language prescriptivists usually deserve the lectures on the usefulness of descriptive dictionaries that they get but I don't think that it's always useful to go to the extreme and celebrate confusing or commonly understood as incorrect usage of words despite some minor usage. The article brings up a good word that was changed over confusion which was inflammable becoming flammable as the 'in' suffix could be taken to meaning a negator and I don't think anybody really had an issue with this, although it does say that 'flammable' is malformed but I really don't see how.
The issue here, imo, is that CloudFlase deceptively hides these things in the TOS, and does not make it clear in the signup process, documentation, and other marketing about the limits of the service.

if you look at the marketing is appears to be with out limit, now "unlimited" anything when it comes to technology should always through a red flag but CloudFlare as used this position to corner the market for CDN and DDOS services.

I think it is deceptive to hide these limits of the service deep in the ToS which they know every few people actually read

I agree with both statements, it gets shit done but has its rough edges. Its improving though and I doubt there's a perfect programming language out there. At the end of the day what matters are results and how quickly you went from idea to production and PHP is one of the good ones for that matter.
I was a political philosophy major in college - it's interesting seeing how important being able to rigorously define what you're saying, and taking into account what your statements assume, is critically important for both engineering, and philosophy.

He made it to the HN front page. (Maybe after the refund, but still I guess he has some track record, blog, twitter, knowing people at AWS, whatever.) I seriously doubt whether AWS would refund everybody else making stupid mistakes. If they did they would advertise it as "no billing surprises".
I agree with one point and disagree with another. The point about taking a lot of time - people would be well served to really internalize that. Even in something like biotech you have a push for development and exists within a year of starting - a few years isn't that long a time to build something worthwhile and itll take you that long.

The point I don't agree with though is zero optionality. A simple counterexample is Warby Parker - the founders all had jobs lined up. A lot of founders I know consulted while getting their company off the ground. In general, founders need a high risk tolerance yes, but needless risk loving characteristics seem needlessly self destructive. Maybe this is too biotech specific a view, but you make progress by controlling risk and decreasing the amount of outstanding risk. You're able to handle the enormous risk at the start, but your job is making that number as small as you can over the following few years through building the venture. Creating optionality, creating new revenue sources to extend runway, decreasing reliance on outside capital, decreasing personal stress to allow you to focus on your work better, all these things work in your favor.
