The thing about "unknown unknowns" is that they are unknown. It's like asking "what could possibly be outside the edge of the map, surely it's more of the same".

This isn't a matter of water flowing downhill through a pipe or a piston moving through a cylinder. Although we have a good understanding of the process, we don't have decades of extensive engineering experience to give us empiric reassurance that there are no gotchas. We didn't put a billion people into airplanes nine months after the first commercial airliner was developed.

Sure, hopefully our current understanding is good enough and there are no long-term side effects. But it's naïve to assume a likelihood of 100%.

Although the elderly and sick have a high likelihood of a serious covid case, young and healthy people are exceedingly likely to have a mild disease. These probabilities are what you have to judge the confidence of long-term vaccine safety against.
I’ve spent most of my life as a member of an extracurricular organization that has “helping others” as a Principal plank in its platform.

Most folks that need help aren’t “pinkie-extended Earl Grey drinkers.” Can be a rough lot.

But I have an amazing bevy of really deep friendships and relationships with folks that I would never had met, otherwise.

Totally worth it.

All fourteen Pis, even v4s (which are significantly hungrier), would be lower power (as in electrical draw) than even a feeble (as in compute power) traditional machine.

If you can distribute your workload (or it's not intensive anyway), i.e. having no single machine with a faster processor, then I think it's a good choice, cheaper to run.

Edit: I'm happy to be corrected if down-voters would like to reply... A Pi 4 draws 6-7W at full load. A former desktop PC turned server likely idles over 100W.

They're different beasts, so I'm not saying 'a Pi is better than a PC', I'm saying 'if your load could also be handled by a (bunch of) Pi(s), then all else being equal that might be better than the PC'. Of course all else is never equal, ymmv, you may already have the old PC, you may need very many Pis, so even if pennies cheaper to run it might take years and years to break even on the Pi acquisition cost.

It is refutable in the sense that you can perfom experiments showing situations where known laws and explanations fail. That is science.

Please check out https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falsifiability

> In the philosophy of science, falsifiability or refutability is the capacity for a statement, theory or hypothesis to be contradicted by evidence. For example, the statement "All swans are white" is falsifiable because one can observe that black swans exist.

> The observation of a black swan falsifies the hypothesis "All swans are white".

> (...) Popper argued for falsifiability and opposed this to the intuitively similar concept of verifiability. Whereas verifying the claim "All swans are white" would require assessment of all swans, which is not possible, the single observation of a black swan is sufficient to falsify it.
Basic healthy food, shelter and education isn't as costly as society wants you to believe. I think that is the point being made when people talk about abolishing work and offering all the basics for free. I believe its a correct premise aswell. We are not talking about luxury.

> Access to those things are provided conditionally upon their satisfactory performance. What conditions are you proposing that governments require to be met?

As soon as we hire people we provide them with all these basic perks, they are not conditional, because we believe if we are sending soldiers to fight we better provide them with the best chances of succeeding. Its the same idea society-wide. If you mean you fire the employees that don't perform you'd be right, but governments could create brackets. The point is, in this day and age there's no reason why we couldn't provide every citizen of a developed society all these basic things. You could argue shelter is the most expensive but there are examples like Singapore solving the issue society-wide.

Exactly. Unnamed public officials with power to abuse or kill have to be at least “name-able” and identifiable for accountability purposes.

Scalability is just one reason for using serverless. There are many others. Most of which have to do with being able to focus on the part of your code that actually does something instead of on infrastructure and integration. For example, not having to configure and maintain VMs, containers, or Kubernetes, off-loading a part of security onto the cloud provider, and built-in integration with supporting services like logging and metrics.

Serverless, like every design decision, comes with its own set of trade-offs. Whether those trade-offs make sense for your environment is something you have to determine. At my company we have seen a productivity increase and shorter development times using serverless. Of course, that was after the learning curve which is certainly not trivial.
You raise valid points that I agree with. Perhaps to better rephrase, assuming an adequate level of teaching ability, in person teaching or well constructed digital sessions where the social aspect is not removed, is likely more effective than simply listening to the best teachers but in a less social manner.

Our goal should be to increase the baseline level of quality for teachers and not just concentrate teaching to a select few orators who broadcast to large groups.

> Who's going to want to play the garbageman game?

I'm sorry, but that's exactly the kind of "work" which needs sharing and gamification. Look up "plogging" for example. Also, in 3rd-world, signs like "Whoever litters here, thou shalt become an impotent or infertile" (and all the varieties) are quite popular. In more developed countries, gamification is "put each kind of garbage in its own can" (in half of that world, those cans are still emptied to the same trash truck).

Thanks for the deserved downvotes.

But in terms for actual cost and performance; how does this compare in terms of peak performance, power consumption and actual total cost to mass produced quality hardware like the Apple Mac Mini?

I don't the actual numbers but I have the feeling it won't fare that well.
I've been hosting Nextcloud since version 13 and have upgraded 7 times in total, to version 20 now. Never had a single issue upgrading. I'm hosting via Docker, so upgrading is as simple as pulling and starting a new image. Nextcloud takes care of upgrading tables etc itself and has never failed on me.

Here are things I found that worked well for supporting family/friends that are not OS specific (of course, if feasible, I advocate for installing GNU/Linux):

- make sure that auto-update is on. Recent OSs are pretty good about this. GNU/Linux / MacOS are also pretty good about updating 3rd party apps (since they come through the package manage / app store), Windows needs a little help (there was Secunia PSI which is now deprecated)

- run the user as a "restricted user" (ie. not superuser / admin). Again, this is mostly given with recent OSs. This also mostly blocks them from accidentally installing software (I generally set up machines with all needed software - like browsers, office suites, media codecs, etc and tell them that they don't need anything else and if something/somebody tells them they need to install something else, they should treat it with extreme suspicion and call me first)

- the big one: ad blocking. I usually combine hosts file based, DNS based and browser plugin based blocking (like uBlock Origin). Seems like lots of scams / malware are going through advertisement and since starting to blocking advertisement over a decade ago, the problems my family / friends are seeing with their devices went down dramatically.
There are a lot of religious followers of the one true AWS way of thinking. I dared bitch too loudly about SES delivery policy once and said to look elsewhere and earned the ire of the architectural elite.

Yep - from this I take it to be a more unique model that doesn’t sacrifice as much of the social aspects of learning, as the inverted classroom would where there is a feeling of detachment during the viewing of the recordings.

That's not the point, what's important is that it would diminish the good experiences for advertisers; remember who their customers are.

At least in contemporary Europe, feminist line of thought is typically associated with the Green political movement.

Right-wing female politicians that break the glass ceiling or at least achieve considerable electoral successes (Margaret Thatcher, Theresa May, Virginia Raggi, Marine Le Pen, Giorgia Meloni) are definitely NOT presented as role models for future generations of girls in feminist literature.

Edit: It is funny to see this comment oscillating between -2 and +2, even though it is rather factual.

As for association of feminist thought with the Green movement, it is enough to pick up electoral programs of various parties and comb them for the jargon; the peak is usually with the Greens. And no, Thatcher or Meloni are very definitely not in vogue with feminist writers and thinkers.
Just a small education platform that'll likely never see the light of day. AssemblyScript is a simple enough language that non-programmers should be able to use and understand it, and it compiles to WASM (which runs sandboxed) so it's reasonably safe to throw around. I'm using it to describe the educational resources (basically, interactive / generalised flashcards).

This looks like a solid product. Kudos! 1% feels very fair for the service you're providing.

However, you mention 2.9% in processing fees from Stripe. This is accurate for non-EU cards. The fee on cards issued in the EU is only 1.5%. Would those savings be passed along to a seller on your site?

In addition to credit cards, Stripe offers a number of other payment options as well, such as direct debit and many national schemes. Are there plans down the line to add support for those as well?
I don't think that's the point they were trying to make. I think they were saying that just because the OS has RAM compression doesn't mean it's like doubling the RAM on other operating systems, and that's even before you consider that those other operating systems have RAM compression too. Saying something is like having 16 GB of RAM when you can't actually use it as 16 GB of RAM deserves to be called out.

> apparently being really rich meant showing of how many spices you could afford on your food. Pretty interesting and funny read/listen.

So was being overweight (look at the art/self portraits and busts) for most of Human existence, the irony being that obesity (and heart disease) is now one of the pretty big indicators of poverty--an attribute of a poor diet, insulin resistance and inflammation from even worse eating habits coupled with limited/no physical activity.

I heard Mat Taibii's guest on a podcast mention this being as common as it in the 21st Century an how its a significant anomaly/reversal for most of History. Hell, I mean even in growing up in the 90s it wasn't as common as it is now there was usually just one 'fat kid' in a group of friends, now its hard to see there being less than 3 in any group of people.

It's tragic how pervasive this is on most of Western Society, the level of dietary ignorance is astonishing, but made worse yet by how addictive they make the processed foods, which in theory if you had some sort daily physical activity to burn those calories would be fine but most don't.

During my apprenticeship when I farmed I used to eat 5000+ calories throughout the day and still managed to be caloric deficient and often lost weight until Sunday (our only day off) when I could eat the same amount of food and properly hydrate with only 1/2 days instead of the 12+ hours of intense manual labour.
That’s true, however it does reduce spread, even for people who would have been asymptomatic, since their bodies will start fighting it much sooner.

Judging by the occasional post on HN, even a lot of experienced software engineers (the "experienced" being my take) seem to have no good handle on what a single thread and a single machine should be capable of handling, what the latency should look like and what it should cost as a result. The posts that I mean are about "look how we handled the load for a moderately active web-app which is 90% cacheable with only five nodes in our k8s cluster".

I really don't know why that is, my guess would be that few people have really built something beginning to end with the most boring tech possible (start out with PHP+MySQL like everyone did 15 years ago). Or they always operate at levels of abstraction where everything is slow, so they have simply gotten used to it, like their text-editor not running smooth unless it's on an i9, because the text-editor now is a pile of abstractions running on top of Electron when vim was able to run smooth decades ago. It's sad and both an opportunity at the same time, because you can be the one with the correct gut feeling of "This should really be doable with a single machine, if not we're doing something fundamentally wrong".
> I found no reason to assume that girls and boys wouldn’t pursue the same things and do exactly the same things (equal outcomes).

My take on feminism is slightly different. It's that boys and girls (and NB individuals) should all pursue what they want to. Regardless of what people of their gender usually pursue (or don't).
Coming from India, the dominant flavour of Europe is some sort of white, Christian group, possibly with a dash of Islamic influence, but mostly monotheistic branches of the same family. There is some variety in languages, and food depending on the climate.

The US doesn't have all that much diversity comparitively. There is more diversity in skin colour, but the major cultural groups are far closer to each other than European ones.

You don't see how homogenous the culture is because you are so close to it.

> Basic healthy food, shelter and education isn't as costly as society wants you to believe.

Still, someone has to provide them. What are they getting in return? Don't say "food, shelter, and education" because in your scenario, they already get those. What are we doing to incentivize these people to provide food, shelter, and education for everyone else?

> I think that is the point being made when people talk about abolishing work and offering all the basics for free. I believe its a correct premise aswell. We are not talking about luxury.

I'm not talking about luxury either. I'm asking where the food, shelter, and education for everyone is supposed to come from.

> As soon as we hire people we provide them with all these basic perks, they are not conditional, because we believe if we are sending soldiers to fight we better provide them with the best chances of succeeding.

They are conditional upon satisfactory performance of the duties they were hired to perform.

> Its the same idea society-wide. If you mean you fire the employees that don't perform you'd be right, but governments could create brackets.

You want governments to provide better food and shelter for certain people? Who gets the best food? The people in charge, or what?

> The point is, in this day and age there's no reason why we couldn't provide every citizen of a developed society all these basic things.

For a few months, maybe. Who is supposed to work to replenish the food once it is eaten?

> You could argue shelter is the most expensive but there are examples like Singapore solving the issue society-wide.

Actually I think shelter is the easiest, food and energy are the ones that are going to be consumed until they are gone and would need to be rationed/allocated.

Because all the shiny new things make promises. From larger talent pools in node.js, to cheaper scaling with kubernetes. They all talk to business leaders in terms they understand.

Also, this is a fundamental property of innovation, innovation usually is made possible by the new and shiny things. I run the software side of a hardware startup, and I wouldn't have been able to run such a complex software system with such a small team if it wasn't for all the shiny stuff. Yes a lot of it is wobbly, but we're also comfortably a year ahead of the established players.
