> Civil disobedience is non violently disobeying unjust laws.

It's worth noting that in the United States, a lot of civil disobedience that has happened, and is happening now, is built on legal reasoning that the unjust laws in question are also unconstitutional, since our constitution explicitly grants many rights to US citizens.

This also affords a way to commit civil disobedience in good conscience for those whose religion or personal convictions forbid disobedience to civil authority.
That's a reasonable postulate.
I would suggest you go ahead and try jumbo frames[0] as that will significantly decrease the CPU load and overhead.

I would also suggest using taskset[1] on each iperf server process to bind them each to a different cpu core.

Finally, I would suggest UDP on iperf and let the sending Pi's just completely saturate the link.

If you do all that, I think you have a good chance at achieving 3.5Gbps over just the Intel card.

Ask HN: Tell Professionals What to Do
It's a commonly-voiced concern that jobs are bullshit. The community could take specific needs and connect them to specific bullshit jobs, telling fellow professionals what they should be doing instead. Why do we not do this?
Hi Kelsey! I hope my comment didn't offend or in any way take away from this excellent exposure.
The US median person is not rich. Even the US average person is not particularly rich, especially in PPP.

The very few rich multi-billionaires skew the figures so much that it looks like the US is rich.

A country with 50 million people on food stamps (and that was before the Covid era) is not rich.
Then why bother pretending to calculate a posterior distribution when you can do a MLE estimator with regularization or something?
The captions feature of Google Hangouts is great if you can't hear well, although sometimes it is akin to watching a "bad lip reading" video on You Tube which I'm sure nobody else notices because I'm the only one with them turned on.

The TDD service hasn't changed since the '90s (1890? 1990? debatable) so I avoid it. It might have been amazing in the '60s but it is a punishment to use today compared to chat, messaging, e-mail, almost everything else.

Most banks don't seem to get this and it is precious few that offer secure messaging as an option - First National Bank of Omaha is the best I've found. Citibank has excellent support via chat but all of their financial products are absolutely the worst and their fee structure should be considered usury. CapitalOne has amazing financial products but no provisions for the hard of hearing - if you send them a letter they will send you one right back saying "Call our 800 number" unless you explicitly write that you are writing them because you can't use the phone. Thanks, CapitalOne, really helpful.

The absolute worst is Amalgamated Bank, as soon as they found out I couldn't hear they closed my account and sent me my funds via cashiers check - two months days later.
oh wow. Yep, that's it:

I find the criticism had a lot of value because they pointed out all the proper arxiv resources related to the article. I think it should be a top rated comment directly under the article posting.
YC is always doing a good job in educating people on startup things, and they truly inspire a whole generation of founders, including myself.

But still, most advices we could find online are too high level, too abstract, too philosophical. Yeah there’s a need for this type of things. But as a person who is thinking to quit his/her job to start a company, they may need more actionable advices and data points, e.g., how to buy healthy insurance, what corporate credit card to use, where to find design/engineering help, what specific tools to use for specific things & the cost... I wish there were such “trivia” advices when I started out 4 years ago. Of course, we can’t expect someone like pg or sam Altman to tell us what specific saas or api or health insurance to buy :) this kind of things can only come from people who fight in the frontline , while the memory / experience is still fresh.

Maybe I should write an ebook for these unglamorous advices , especially for people who don’t want to go the venture scale route :)

- [edit 1] I had an old blog post on the tools / tech I used for my company: https://www.listennotes.com/blog/the-boring-technology-behin... it’s of course not the most optimal set of tools & tech; but they get things done :)

- [edit 2] when people make it and become successful entrepreneurs/VCs, they are teaching in startup graduate schools with their deep knowledge. But Where is the startup kindergarten/primary school to teach those things that college/graduate schools assume you already know?
> There's no way that's true, is it? What circumstances would a four way stop sign allow for more traffic flow than a roundabout?

Heavy traffic. In most situations a roundabout will do better, but when completely saturated, the 4-way has a slight advantage. This is probably due to how 4-way stops with dense traffic develop an predictable alternation pattern that eliminates ambiguity and reduces the clearance requirements.

I played and still love many of the LucasArts adventure games: Sam & Max Hit the Road, Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Grim Fandango. But the game which still holds the biggest emotional resonance for me all these years later is Gabriel Knight II: The Beast Within. Maybe there's just something about the full motion video format that allowed me to identify more with the characters or something, but I still find myself replaying scenes from it in my head every now and then. Robert Holmes's score added so much to it (and even the non-FMV predecessor) as well.

The X-Wing series were definitely hands down the best arcade flight sims though.
Fine, my example is outdated. That's irrelevant. I could probably find 3 more examples in the current default config for MySQL that would be as bad or worse.

As for the rest of your comment, sensible defaults most certainly are a valid reason to choose one piece of software over another. Bad default configs are equivalent to what the Dungeons & Dragons community calls "newbie traps." They're things that either don't look important, or don't look like they'll hurt you, but really are important, or can hurt you, if you're not extremely careful. What's more, some of these options are probably not going to be backward compatible with your code. So, you get into this situation where MySQL is doing shitty things you don't want it to do, and, when you find out later that it's doing those things, you either can't do much about it, or doing something about it involves major surgery to your application. That's bad.

So, yes, you can configure MySQL to have better than default behavior. That's no surprise; that's literally the point of having configuration options, after all. The problem is that some of these options don't look too bad. There is something to be said for having a permissive configuration. But, for the reasons I spelled out in the previous paragraph, that shouldn't be the default configuration. It's not too much to ask that you should be able to install and configure a database and not have it lose or corrupt your data.
Well you can instantly tell its an async func, and it reads like english when reading it. Why do you think this would be a mistake? I'm just looking for a decent reasoning.
California Property Taxes Mapped
It's not clear-cut, no, and I am not a lawyer, but mandatory authority (vs. persuasive authority) in California basically means that the plaintiff's lawyers could actually file all the cases at the same time. And then get a judge to view that as a favorable move, not asshole at all.

(To be honest, I think any hostile move such as a lawsuit is an asshole move, so I think I'm agreeing with you?)

They wouldn't need to claim the cases were grouped together, just that the inevitable appeal would be more likely to be found binding if the cases were all still being adjudicated.

Or something like that. No court case is a slam-dunk.
Good news for the climate and the environment!
It seems like every few weeks there are these huge, complicated and profound discoveries in physics. I feel like i missed the boat on this, as if I chose the wrong profession or am missing out on something. I should have pursued math further but I probably would not have been smart enough anyway. Wikipedia has no mention of the page curve, so this is pretty cutting-edge and theoretical even by the standards of theoretical physics.

Yikes. Swift is becoming horribly complex and opaque. Yet another set of @shoehornedKeywords... Colored functions...

Let me ramble a bit here.

Apple’s platforms had always put users before developers, that’s why they were so successful. They’ve built the best user experience by far using nothing but a simple Smalltalk-esque language from the 80s. Look at their frameworks: CoreAudio, CoreAnimation, UIKit... Tremendously powerful, and the best in their league - in terms of possibilities, not necessarily developer experience! Others were shoving garbage-collected virtual machines in their devices, piling abstraction over abstraction, “fluent APIs” (remember those?); meanwhile Apple built an empire with this quirky dynamic language (plus some C++ under the hood), where you had to do manual reference counting as late as 2012! Developers were livid. “How am I supposed to program in this weird language?” “AutoLayout? Why can’t it be just like CSS or something??”
But Apple didn’t give a shit, they knew their platform, their frameworks were the best, period. And whiny devs had to adapt to gain access to the richest cohort of users in the computing landscape.

With Swift and SwiftUI we seem to be heading towards a different future, and I’m yet to be convinced that it’s the right one.
I will agree, Backus' ideas have panned out in many ways. Not having read his lecture in quite a while I can't comment on whether or not, in 1977, he was overselling the idea at the time, especially as I'm not familiar with the state of the art in research at the time (having been born 5 years later, and CS concepts not being taught in chronological order).

Regardless, your original comment made two absurd claims:

1. Dijkstra attacked the paper that inspired Haskell and everything else that currently exists in FP. He tried to destroy it. [emphasis added]

Which is what my quote of Dijkstra's actual statements was meant to rebut. He did not try to destroy it. He criticized it, and some of his criticism may have been wrong then, and I'd say is wrong now (with greater understanding of the ideas Backus was presenting), but he did not try to destroy it.

2. He should be a footnote in history.

Another absurd position. Because of one response (and if you wanted to you can probably find a number of others) exaggerated beyond reason ("He tried to destroy it."), you want to dismiss some 50 years of work.

It works quite well, IME. Each service publishes its protobuf files to a repository or registry during the build step, and if you want to call it from another service you just import the protobuf file and get a defined and documented interface with little to no boilerplate required to use. Protobuf has clear rules on how to evolve the interface in a backwards compatible way, so services can usually stay on the old definition until you need some new functionality, at which point you import the newest definitions.

https://github.com/uber-archive/idl defines a good workflow for this, though the tool is sadly unmaintained. Done right it really reduces the pain of crossing repository boundaries.
Because at the time he wrote it there wasn't a good standard or sufficiently common one that had the properties he wanted to use for exploring algorithms. See MMIX for something closer to a modern architecture than the original MIX.
I’m dealing with chronic pain that’s bringing my current career to its end. I’m still unsure how active I’ll be able to be in the future due to it.

In my case it’s autoimmune; my body has decided it’s going to destroy itself from the inside out. Arthritis, psoriasis, GI issues. It’s getting worse fast enough that I’m being transferred to a hospital for care (Military, stationed overseas) and preparation for retirement.

I had a bad day yesterday; out taking care of errands to leave and everything flared. Sometimes there’s no discernible reason. It damned near floored me, but since I don’t have a vehicle I had to walk the couple kilometers back. It’s hard to describe how much ongoing pain changes who you are. It’s a constant struggle to not be an asshole because DAMNIT JUST LEAVE ME ALONE. It’s overwhelming and demoralizing. That’s before we get to the questions of what can you still do to make ends meet.
The others are already over budget and behind schedule, the private companies meant to be heading them are dropping like flies. This won't end well...

I was feeling the same! I came away from this article even more confused as to what's been going on.

I used to be a maintainer on Xfce (though it's been a decade since I was active), and I've been worried (as a user) about the "upgrade path". Porting (if you can call it that) from X11 desktop environment to Wayland compositor (etc.) is a huge step to take, it seems, and Xfce's current core team doesn't seem interested in going in that direction (I don't blame them).

As a user, I want to just keep using Xfce until the heat death of the universe. As someone who might get involved in Xfce development again, I worry that any work I'd be doing on the X11-based things might be wasted time in the long run.
Did you test without main Ethernet connection?
What's more confusing is that Software Engineering, Computer Engineering and Computer science overlap quite a bit, but are distinct fields.

Furthermore, there really is two kinds of CS departments: the ones that were spun out of a Math department and those that emerged out of an Electrical Engineering one.
Well-deserved success, and very inspirational!
It's interesting that both the Denisovans and the Neanderthals were named after religious individuals. The Denisovan remains were found in the Denisova cave, Denis being a Russian Orthodox hermit who lived there. The word Neanderthal comes from the Neander valley, which was called after a German minister who enjoyed walking the area and writing hymns.

This is one of the worst UI decisions around driving in the US, in my opinion. Even if the "all-way" addendum was displayed below every stop sign without fail, the semantics of those two stop signs are so different as to warrant a different color and shape; if you mistake a "stop[just you]" for a "stop[all way]" then it's a really dangerous situation. It's easy to fail to spot the difference with a quick glance.

I'd be interested to see statistics on how many people die at these intersections, I suspect this is one of the needlessly dangerous aspects of driving in cities.

Great question. We basically set every article as a draft, and because they can write in WYSIWIG writer now (no markdown) and the netlifycms admin dashboard allows them to see a fully-rendered preview that gets us 80% of the way.

At that point (once we've checked the links and typos, etc) we flip the draft boolean to false and check the article looks as expected on production.

Not perfect – we'd probably have a staging server if we were bigger – but we're still small :)
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia ~15 years ago. Since then, having started an immunosuppressive for something else and it seemed to help with the pain- now the doctors think it is psoriatic arthritis.

I am in constant, mild pain. Some days it is nearly, but not quite debilitating. Some people think I am making it up, exaggerating, or that it is all in my head.

There is no certain test for either condition- in particular, fibromyalgia is basically a bucket you get tossed into if nothing else makes sense.

I am definitely sympathetic to people with chronic pain, because i know first-hand the extent to which it changes your personality, stress and anxiety tolerance, cognitive ability and focus.

You are not alone. It sucks, big time, but you are not alone.

When I first played around compiling the linux kernel, I found that most of it is like a suburban garage, with a kayak and a brake bleeder and a hoe and golf clubs.

Except the kernel puts the suburban garage to shame.

My kernel config shows:

CONFIG_HAMRADIO=y
CONFIG_BAYCOM_SER_FDX=m (from AX.25 network device drivers)
CONFIG_CAN_SJA1000=m (from CAN device drivers)
CONFIG_NFC_MRVL=m (from Near Field Communication (NFC) devices)

after a while I just scroll faster and faster zooming past:

CONFIG_VMWARE_BALLOON=m
CONFIG_HABANA_AI=m
CONFIG_MACINTOSH_DRIVERS=y
CONFIG_HAPPYMEAL=m

...and loadable module support for 4 heart rate monitors, 18 inertial measurement units and 18 magnetometer sensors. Even 2 VME bridge drivers.

There are 11,018 lines of this.

So when he talked about compile time optimization, this is what I thought of.
