More Aggressive and Less Ambitious: Cyber Command’s Evolving Approach
Busybox's syslog logs to RAM by default. And it can be built with runit requiring no systemd if the distribution was built for this. Also Alpine Linux runs out of RAM entirely by default. Too bad RAM is constrained on these devices and I haven't been able to make it load g_serial in Alpine for the USB gadget console on the OTG port. I used a Pi Zero W.
No I don't mean asm.js. You can write vanilla JS that avoids memory allocation beyond initialization as well as garbage collection, and runs certain algorithms faster than typical C due to differences such as JIT optimizations or the lack of a sentinel to terminate strings, etc.

My point was never to say that JS is in general as fast as C, only that a careful dev that is familiar with the VM's operation can get close for some tasks.
I just tried it with a freebie compact from a makeup store and a single piece of tape (definitely simpler than these tape/pencil/coin shenanigans), and it worked better than I've been able to get any CD to work while taking literally less than a minute to set up properly. Proof: https://i.imgur.com/OF29Ci3.jpg

I'm really struggling to see how the pencil/CD/coin solution is better. I wouldn't be surprised if more teachers have compacts readily available than CDs. I think the whole CD thing is going viral because it falls into the "clever lifehack" bucket, i.e. it is optimized for hackiness virality while not actually being the best/simplest solution to the problem. But a simple compact taped to a laptop screen isn't as interesting of a "hack", and thus doesn't go viral.

(Also -- conveniently -- the layer of glass/plastic on compacts is super thin, basically just barely enough to prevent the aluminum or whatever from oxidizing and from you getting the mirrored surface all fingerprinty, so it doesn't seem to cause noticeable internal reflection problems. And it's thinner than the layer of plastic on CDs, which are NOT first surface mirrors, which is easily provable by scratching the bottom of the CD and noting that you're scratching the plastic and not the reflective material directly.)

You're right in that most office workers take Monday to get going and wind down on Friday, but Jamie Dimon is the guy that lied in Congressional testimony multiple times, so that's equally likely.

I think where these Graviton instances will really shine is in the AWS managed services, like RDS, ElastiCache etc. where the architecture is entirely irrelevant to you as a customer. All that you care about is that it's both faster and cheaper, a no-brainer choice.
Being in an office would make me more distracted imho. Between wondering if the ventilation is giving me covid from careless co-workers, to being more separate from family and home should another disaster crop up.

Edit: careless not carless ... lol
The old guys want us back in the office as well. The party is over. It's a shame. I am getting so much more done at home. I can't believe I have to go back to that hell hole. There's no way I can replicate my home office setup. I think I am going to glue my headphones to my head claim it as an ADA accommodation...

We in general don't need great. Good is OK. We just need to avoid bad or terrible.

But we still knew when great showed up. I was one of the interviewers. I remember that the interview switched, from us asking questions to find out how much the candidate knew, to us asking questions so we could learn stuff.

Maybe someday all tech employers will be remote-first and pay will be the same everywhere. But if you don’t compete with Bay Area offers now, you filter out everyone who relocated to the Bay Area to benefit their career.
You can also netboot them, which adds a little latency but in terms of speed is likely even better than the SD card, now that the Pis have real Gbit.
All depends what you're doing, right? Is it a small stupid app with a short lifespan? Is it "just" a proof-of-concept? Is the company likely to survive long enough that technical debt matters?

Daaaaamn.
Well, I used to plan on this stuff. I mean, it was my career path for 20+ years. Then, after learning a lot more about the field, I came to the conclusion that these sorts of aggressive ideas are far beyond what we can reasonably contemplate, and it generates unrealistic expectations in the lay public when we suggest it's possible.

Genetic engineering for human treatments took a 20+ year hit because one guy died in a trial at UPenn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesse_Gelsinger

I’m inclined to believe he’s afraid of change and is abusing his power to push his feelings-based agenda.

To me, this goes one of two ways. One, he loses a huge swath of young workers that apply to different companies instead and his company folds. Two, he still loses a huge swath of young workers who don’t apply but his feelings turn out to be true and the company comes out stronger. Either way, we won’t know until many years down the line.
My ISP provides me with a CGNAT IPv4 address, so I can't hope to access externally. They delegated a /56 IPv6 subnet to me though. So I just setup Prefix Delegation on my router and allowed in TCP port 443 in the IPv6 firewall. I setup an NGINX reverse proxy. I set a static IPv6 address in my subnet on my servers. My mobile phone provider has IPv6 dual stack. In my public DNS I setup an AAAA record. So I can access all of my services over IPv6 natively on my phone which meets my needs (syncthing, airsonic, bitwarden). I like that I don't have to have any Split DNS, only one set of records. I dont have to hijack the zone for my internal network. It's like I automatically 'roam' when connected to WiFi, it gives me a higher priority route to my server through wifi rather than over mobile network. It works really, really well.

I often derive the most enjoyment through more niche social media spaces, such as HN or certain subreddits. I think the difficulty I have is that you get pigeonholed. I don't use Reddit as much because I like a few posts on /r/Funny and then my feed is taken over. I don't always want to go there to learn technical stuff, some days I just want memes. Other days I don't want any memes.

Content discovery is a difficult challenge but I think it is hard when incentives aren't aligned.

AI safety isn't an EA "preoccupation"; it's just weird enough and noticeable enough that it's easy to mistake existence and prevalence. It's also not even their weirdest position.

The first question on their list is about the 'problem' of wild animal suffering - and I've personally seen EAs argue that, because some animals are carnivorous, nature should be destroyed.

That's not even the weirdest position EAs take. Look up Brian Tomasik. Specifically, his paper about the possibility that electrons might suffer.

Concern about superhuman AI is one thing; bullet-biting utilitarianism is another entirely.

(This isn't the only place where their philosophical framework is stuck in the British Empire; they also tend to take a teleological view of history and moral development, and believe that their views are the self-evident progression of ethical development that every culture and civilization will come to eventually. They may not be as bad about this now as they used to be - there are questions about China now - but I don't think they're quite to the point of coming to terms with cultural contingency yet.)
Not just me then...
Younger employees probably have less space. Apartment/house shares, etc.

> [...] the worst that can happen is just jank, which people are used to, rather than visual artifacts.

This is an important point. There are many solutions out there (beyond compositing) that add incredible complexity along with other costs in order to solve a perceived problem by it's proponents... not uncommonly those same people pushing the solution are incapable of fairly judging the cost benefit - sometimes the solutions are just not worth the cost.

There is currently an issue in chromium compositing with checkerboarding (blanking whole regions of the screen with white) when scrolling due to an optimization released to reduce jank:

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=106266...

You will notice this in recent releases of chromium when you scroll any non trivial page fast enough... or a simple page very fast by yanking the scroll bar... unless you have an extremely fast computer and graphics card. When reading through that thread you will notice how defensive they are, it's a complex and no doubt incredible bit of coding they have done - unfortunately the side-effect is worse than the original problem that most users don't even notice.

In the long run I think time will prove this problem and it's solutions are purely transient... In the same way font anti-aliasing is becoming obsolete with DPIs higher than we can perceive, solving jank isn't necessary if you cannot perceive it (i.e using frame rates > 60 Hz)... and the original problem really isn't as bad as all the people attempting to solve it think it is anyway.

Every time I've interacted with someone from IBM

What percentage of IBM's 362,000 employees have you interacted with that is statistically meaningful?

Have you looked at their public facing offerings lately?

Only two of them. They were impressive. But you and I are looking at different offerings, probably in different market segments.

They're losing ground on pretty much everything that is a modern revenue driver

And yet, its income was up almost ten billion dollars last year. Seems like IBM knows very well how to drive revenue.

IBM has hundreds of products. I suggest you expand your view beyond the very few that are critiqued on HN.
There is a lot of certainty in the quotes this article shares given the complete lack of hard data.

> “The WFH lifestyle seems to have impacted younger employees, and overall productivity and ‘creative combustion’ has taken a hit,”

What exactly is "creative combustion" and how can one measure it?

> “Overall, Jamie thinks a shift back to the office will be good for the young employees and to foster creative ideas,” Kleinhanzl wrote.

This is yet another remote work hit piece. There are not metrics presented, perhaps none collected, and the immeasurable "creativity" is used in place of facts.

For any of these claims to have credibility the following need to presented at minimum.

1. What was measured.

2. How it was measured.

3. What the sample size was.

4. How long it was measured.

5. The delta in measurements alongside the raw data.

But I suspect Dimon and his cohort don't care about credibility. They just want to find a way to rationalize their decision.
Tailscale runs on WireGuard and therefore requires elevated permissions on each client device. That shouldn't be required for simply proxying a local port.

Does Tailscale offer domain registration and TLS certs?

Also, is there any way to allow public access to certain ports on certain machines, ie if you wanted to run your personal blog on your RPi?
I was talking about the field, not individuals. You do wonder: at what level of experience is a civil engineer senior? Maybe that explains why bridges do not routinely collapse while large software projects invariably end up being dumpster fires.
> Not to mention the Brits culturally aren't very good at marketing. Something the US is exceptionally good at.

Strange to hear this - I've always thought that the UK was particularly good at marketing, [English-speaking] world-leading, in fact. The creative aspect at least. Perhaps I'm conflating this with advertising.

What's Coda, by these analogies?
Also, just having a standardized way to do a lot of things.

One such example is menus. Just about all Mac apps — even ported stuff using third party UI toolkits — hook into the standard menubar APIs, which means that every menu item of every app can have a key shortcut assigned (or reassigned) in System Preferences, even when the app's dev never bothered to add such configurability. Similarly, accessibility and scripting APIs can reliably grab the menu items of any app, improving automation and interoperability. One could probably even write a full replacement for the macOS global menubar without much fuss.

Compare this to Windows and Linux where it's quasi-normal for apps to implement menus their own way or eschew them altogether — there is no single way to grab menu items, just a ton of different possible ways, and if an app dev has decided to do their own thing you're just SoL.
Everything except domain registration AFAIK. Unfortunately it's closed-source and the pricing is confusing. It's not clear to me whether it would be a good choice for exposing a Plex server to your family and friends, for example.

Each type of postal address is a separate column. New postal address "types" would get new columns. This works particularly well when addresses can have both PO boxes as well as street addresses. This is actually more flexible than tagged unions/sum types, at least for this particular case.

I think this argument is odd. You are literally arguing that every individual should have more self control than can be overcome by a team of experts whose job it is to defeat your control. I'm sorry, but we're just out matched.
That's my point. Your baseline should be bay area numbers. Don't change that number simply because the person you're hiring lives somewhere else.

It also leaves the company open to gaming. If I know I can make significantly more than my peers just by having an address on the bay area I could find a way to get an address while living somewhere else.

The reduced number of potential children is offset by the significantly higher net increase in emissions from moving from a poor country to a rich country, and participating in a more CO2-intensive economy.

Unskilled migrants and refugees move to the West for economic reasons. However, their labor can increasingly be replaced with robots. Additionally, in Welfare states, their existence is a cost on the rest of society, as well as increasing demand for finite land and transport infrastructure, thus worsening quality of life for existing citizens.

With all of that, it would be much more effective to provide free and universal education, contraception, and abortion for women, which will also address the underlying cause of mass migration and habitat destruction - regional human overpopulation.

> The Google numbers I list are not monthly rolling measures, they're for the entirety of 2018.

Fair enough, I was referring to the "average monthly infection rate" from the text you quoted.

However, I am having trouble reconciling Google's numbers with the numbers from other reports. For example, Kaspersky's mobile malware evolution report (https://securelist.com/mobile-malware-evolution-2019/96280/) says 13.89% of users in the United States were attacked by mobile malware in 2019. The number is as high as 60% for Iran.

> 200 million of 2.5 billion is a little less than 1 percent.

That's 8%. I don't understand how Google can say in the same report, that 199 million devices were infected by a single piece of malware, but only a maximum of 0.68% devices were affected? Something doesn't add up.

(I'll address your other points when I have more free time.)
