Would you not consider Babylon 5 to be science fiction simply because they never really explain how the jumpgates work, and the plot isn't specifically about the implications of the discovery of hyperspace and FTL travel on society?

The science in that case is necessary to bring the plot elements together and constrain the action under a set of known rules and behaviors regarding hyperspace and related technology, but little of it is explored in detail. It's just there for the same reason that boats have to be there for a story set in the Age of Sail.

>I am all for EVs, but we need them mandated as the norm, not luxury status symbols that cost as much as a house. When they are mandated and gas models aren't sold then manufacturers will make cheaper models to meet the market's demand.

That isn't how that works. You can't just make something cheaper by fiat. It takes time, demand and technological advancement. Banning new ICE vehicles unilaterally will make it so nobody can afford a new car.

> Out of curiosity, if 200,000+ deaths in the US doesn't constitute something serious and worthy of attention and efforts to mitigate/minimize the impact of COVID-19, how many deaths would make you change your mind?

Out of curiosity, how many deaths do you consider little enough to be ignored?
400,000? (Smoking)
35,000? (Traffic accidents)
5? (Amoeba infecting the brain)

If you say none, do you agree that the measure still needs to fit the threat? Stopping driving would eliminate that cause of death, but it would cause other problems.

I actually find it bizarre that it can be hard to build code for a particular platform on a different platform machine. Why does compiler logic have to depend on the machine it runs on?
> That kind of license would not be free or open source.

I agree. And I'm saying AGPL is de facto not free software, because ~100% of serious (even hobby) installations violate it, even if it's free software de jure.

And independent of this I also think AGPL violates freedom 0. E.g. the AGPL explicitly forbids you from running a service combined with proprietary software. You are NOT allowed to run a service by combining AGPL software with a binary blob you don't have source code to. How could this possibly be "The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose"?

If I'm not allowed to run X with Y, how is it "as you wish, for any purpose"?

Agreed! I really feel that it is time for our city centers to put restrictions on the type of vehicles that are allowed on the streets. I imagine this would be based on size, weight, and horsepower (or something similar). Exceptions would only be granted for verifiable business reasons.

If you want this truck for cruising in rural areas or on the highway, fine, but don't bring it to the city where there are pedestrians, cyclists, narrow roads, and limited parking.

There is something to extinguish: Apple. Microsoft had a significant problem that all the best (non-game) developers used macOS (and a few even linux), which severely damaged their ecosystem. They fixed that. Apple might be in for a rude awakening in turn when they realize the toys they enjoy selling for exorbitant profits had an ecosystem dependency on the professional products they more or less abandoned.
Uh?

They normally store the User Principal Name from the cert, and then use the public/private key as part of the connection. Specifically, the connection is negotiated after the client sends the public client certificate, and uses it as part of the key exchange.

It doesn't necessarily need to store the public key, but it does need to store which certificate goes with which account. And the certificate is validated by checking that it's been issued by a CA the server trusts.

Heart disease accounts for over 600,000 deaths per year in the US but most people are more likely to use their current health as a metric in determining their diet than the risk of dying from heart disease. For example I am more likely to weigh the fact that I can no longer fit into my pants as a reason to change my diet than the possibility of dying from heart disease.
Ingress Controllers in K8S can and should be simplified. For most cases you'll need a controller, but setting one up can be daunting with the various options and having most of them under constant change with varying documentation.

This is why things like K3s will bundle Traefik with it to save you the pain, but really this should be the standard. It should be swappable (like it is in K3s), but come with something already available.

Updated - Thanks for the reminder - it's ingress controller, not ingress.
Thanks for mentioning these. Ordering one now. Didn't realize I could do them from home without a doctor's visit. Last time I did one I had to go to the doctor to get it like 6 years ago.
I built HTPC using ShuttlePC with MythTV back then. I also integrated home automation to control the lights and audio distribution around the house using X-10. Back then, the phone were still analog and one of the X-10 light module would turns on when I get a call. I had a Sony projector with a 105 in screen and 5.1 surround sound. When the movie starts the lights would dim and the curtains would close. Getting a cable card was expensive back then. I had DirecTV so set up an IR relay with X-10 to control the channels.

Switzerland doesn't "work purely by plebiscites". It's also a representative government. But it is true that there is more direct democracy, through so-called "initiatives" and "referendums". Those involve the population a few times a year.

Note that California does something very similar, although the votes are less frequent.
I have often heard the anecdote of Argentinians flying to North America for shopping. But why is Chile not used for these purposes? Chile doesn’t have the import-substitution policies of Argentina, and in my visits to Chile I didn't feel that the country was not significantly more expensive than the USA.
> Converting a large gallons-to-the-mile ICE to an emissions-free electric drive train shows a willingness to cannibalize a previously successful marketing brand

The marketing brand for Hummers is girth and power, male sexual machismo in car form, and that isn't changing at all. Nobody evaluates their proxy phallus in terms of fuel consumption. They do it in terms of manly things like horsepower, towing capacity, and taking up a lot of space so that the whole world notices you. Electric vehicle marketing has been all over the "MOAR POWAR!" angle from the very beginning. There's zero reason for a car to accelerate to 60MPH in 3 seconds, but here we are with every electric tank advertising that it flies like a bullet.
This is always the same rebound/stacking problem with tech. Look at 5G, supposedly it uses less energy per byte than 4g, but we'll have 2 problems:

- rebound: faster bandwidth = people will consume more bytes = need more energy

- stack: 5G will be deployed on top of 4g which is deployed on top of 3g which is deployed on top of 2g which is still operational in many places.

It goes the same for transportation. If an electric car replaces a ICE car it's a net positive (or maybe not, you'd have to study the whole cycle from lithium mining to end of life disposal). If an electric car replaces a pedestrian or a bicycle it's a net negative no matter how you look at it.
I have a very hard time getting behind these complex configuration languages. To me what makes a configuration format good is the simplicity of reading the configuration of a program, and almost all of these languages are optimizing for feature complexity over readability. I think that all of the popular config formats (yaml, json, toml, etc) have issues, but none of the major issues with them have to do with being unable to represent a fibonacci sequence in their language.

To draw a direct comparison, when I look at the examples in the github repository, all I can think is "I would never want to have this be a source of truth in my codebase". While I get frustrated w/ whitespace in yaml and the difficulty of reading complex json configuration, if I need a way to programmatically load complex data I would almost always rather use those two as a base and write a 'config-loader' in the language that I am already using for my project (instead of introducing another syntax into the mix)
The server doesn't need to store the certificate, or even a mapping from certificate to identity. Just retrieving information encoded in the DN or SANs of a certificate presented by a client is enough to tie the connection originator/client to an identity. I mean, it's a design decision, whether you want to have a layer of indirection there - but keeping it without one allows TLS client certificates to be fully stateless, and be used across multiple backends that do not share any session/mapping store between them.

In addition, if I'm being picky, TLS 1.3 changes how client certificates are used, and they are now not part of the initial handshake.

Right, that's what I prefer as well. Minimize your magic, restrict it as much as possible, and build your world around the consequences of its existence.

But don't try to explain the inner workings of the magic by spouting nonsense. That just takes me out of the story. Take it for granted, aliens made it, something other than semi-randomly assembled sentences sprinkled with fashionable pop-sci terms.

> in NYC, we did "literally see the bodies piling up" in March and April

Was this because of the excess COVID deaths or just because some the services that normally handle deaths were deemed non-critical and so the chain of services that handle bodies just had glitches?

Or, to look at it scientifically, did the uptick in NYC deaths per week in March and April put the total deaths per week above, say, (average + 3 sigma) over the past couple of years. Honest question, I do not know this answer but knowing this would help put the numerical base behind an emotional statement.

For your second question, On your "how many" question: nobody I know says that 200k deaths do not constitute something worthy of attention. But on average, over 3 million people die per year in the US. 650k per year (according to CDC) just from heart disease, much of it preventable with better habits and good exercise.

If 200k deaths is enough to force major life restrictions on everyone (and spend over $5 trillion to limit economic fallout), should we bring the same machinery to focus on heart disease as well: force video taped gym sessions and cardio exercises? require wearable monitors? prohibit admittance to public transport without a gym validation stamp or a doctor note?

Those sound aggressive, sorry! That was not the intent; but just from a purely objective approach I do not see why the answer to those should be an automatic "no" if we accept COVID policies as automatic "yes". My 2c.

I think maybe I was thinking of 'the democracy' as a by-word for 'modern european state'. On second thought, this isn't all that reasonable. I think the modern european state is nationalist first, liberal second, and democratic (usually) as a distant third - that is, in order of how likely any characteristic is to break down under pressure.

It feels to me if you look at the trajectory from the start of the french revolution to the modern european state, even in periods of reaction, the arrow doesn't really turn much. Reactionaries usually see the advantages of nationalism, bourgeois the advantages of liberalism, and workers the advantages of democracy - and all of the three trends get reversed at points, but if you sum them, then it's a pretty steady gain. For instance, while the dissolution of the Frankfurt parliment was a blow against democracy, I think it probably pushed nationlism forward by putting so much power in Prussian hands.

So I'd credit the French Revolution with spawning and intensively testing the triad of political views that have ended up being totally dominant in Europe - you're right that this triad is not identical with democracy, but I think it is identical with what we generally call democracy in Europe today.
Great on paper, but have you seen this thing? It looks like a Cybertruck and a Jeep JK had a baby, then a 2021 Ford Bronco and a Delorean had a baby. Then the kids grew up and got married to each other and gave birth to this EV monstrosity.
They did recently (2017/2018) defend Milo Yiannopoulis' right to advertise his event in the DC metro, but after pushback related to that, they've softened their stance in a lot of ways, carving out exceptions, for example they have stated they would not defend the right of "hate groups" to march if they were armed, and stated in a memo[1] that they should no longer defend the right to speech against marginalized groups.

Since the AMD Navi Driver are in Linux distro wouldn't it be better try those cards first?
On a similar but unrelated note about load balancers, if I have a VM with multiple IPs, how can I bind a service to a single IP? It seems like a service using a NodePort listens on that port on all IPs, however, I haven't found a load balancer implementation that lets me do this either.
The Hummer EV gets about 58mpge if it has a 200kW battery. That's 571 Wh/mile or more than 2.25x less efficient than a 2019 Tesla model 3 SR+ which gets 240Wh/mile.

A lot of people in here are saying - oh I had to do this is Germany or Denmark or USA as well. Which is fair, but what irks me is that in India which has pretty high taxation in all departments (see Petrol/Gasoline) the tax you pay gives you ZERO benefit. No healthcare, education or unemployment benefits etc. Also on top of this, due to the corrupt system, if you need anything from any govt. agency you will need to pay a bribe anyways (e.g. registering an apartment, even getting a passport).

TBH, I am a big fan of taxes, I am happy to pay even 50-60% in taxes if that means my fellow human is not left hungry or without healthcare or without a roof on their head. In India this is not the case, high taxes, with no benefits to anyone (except the government and their friends).
Fist bump. In my first year screening, they still found some thyroid tissues in the thyroid bed that hasn't been fully destroyed by RAI. I have an ultrasound and blood work in another 3 months. My synthroid dosage was too high initially as per plan which caused a lot of anxiety, heart racing, GI issues etc. After they lowered it, it's more manageable. RAI is a pain due to the low iodine diet and quarantine but there's no other choice. In my case, it had spread to the lymph nodes so had to get RAI. Hopefully, you don't have to go through it. This is one of the good 'cancers' for sure but it's still life changing in a lot of ways.

It used to be just American car manufacturers that did that, but it happened to me when I went to a Honda dealership looking for a Fit, which they didn't have new because the factory washed out, but here we have 20 CR-Vs from the same factory on sale, why not take one of them?
