The system I setup would quickly detect p2p (and some worm/virus stuff) and put you in a quarantine vlan (for virus) or just drop 2-3% of your packets (p2p). That particular network didn't have infinite bandwidth...

As far as actually investigating / reporting file sharing stuff, we'd sometimes track down the students and let them know that they were suspected of doing things that were against the extremely lenient network access policies but we certainly never cooperated with the (non-LEO) agencies reporting.

The thing that was most irritating to me was that if they were reporting abuse, if we had enough information to do something about it we'd obviously also have the remote IP of the entity reporting the abuse yet they refused to offer it even when we'd send them "we have 3 potential people, with 3 remote IP addresses ; which is yours?" which would always just get the same vaguely threatening boiler plate...
The housing market in Japan is very different, for better or worse. As a consequence of the fact that houses aren't seen as investments, people...don't invest in their houses. They don't make necessary repairs, so the next owner would rather knock it over and rebuild than risk living in a rotting deathtrap [1]. From a macroscopic level, this is an enormous waste, because society is investing all these resources just to tread water, instead of accumulating wealth and resources over generations.

Everyone in Russia is familiar with Navalny, though. I mean, it's not like everyone in USA personally met Joe Rogan or Elon Musk (not sure if these are the best example, since I am not from the USA, but I'm guessing they must be good enough), but you probably are kind of familiar with them and vividly remember their voices. You don't have to be a CIA agent spying on them to recognize them over the phone.

That being said, as I already told, I think it is plausible. People often don't recognize other people by voice, despite being very much familiar with each other.

This comment is so self-contradictory I can't take it seriously.

Your own exactly correct observation of the super importance of a date format (in most situations) expresses exactly one of the things that validate the overall complaint.

This means, there is some other unstated reason you dismiss the complaint. Because your stated reason actually supports it.

I've got 3 in the bag that match your #2 experience. I would love to know how common this outcome is.

My overwhelming experience is that companies rarely "fail". A good idea just chugs along with an owner making well into the 6 figures. Somebody else (like me) built the infrastructure that allows the owner to outsource the maintenance development work.

This became my reason for doing CTO as a service type solutions. A lot of people were doing this 5 years ago or so, which makes me think your #2 is fairly common.

Just like Apple.

Fuck all of these companies. The DOJ needs to split them at the seams.

Edit: damn these downvotes. I typed out an essay as a response to someone asking about the Great Filter in another thread, and now HN is blocking me for posting due to getting so many downvotes.

I hate the Apple users censoring everyone that disagrees with them or points out negative things about their company. It's a huge problem.

The perfect analogy for Apple is the CCP. Developers have to behave exactly like Apple wants to distribute software, or they're toast. And Apple users rush to defend this. They're "protected" by big Papa Bear Apple. They don't see this as a reduction of freedoms or strong arming. They got what they wanted and they're fervent about it, and they don't see the bigger picture.

Apple isn't even protecting people. They're protecting their market lead. Apple users mean shit to them. They'd let us repair and install on our own if otherwise. The brand goes to people's heads just like other luxury brands (BMW, Dior, Gucci, etc.) - it's a lifestyle that needs to be signaled and defended.

Isn't it obvious that they're bad for the world?

Liberty or death. When did we forget that?

I really like Nintendo. I grew up with them. Zelda is the best thing ever. It's the Miyazaki of gaming. But you know what? They're fucking assholes to fans. They take down artistic endeavors that companies like Square Enix and Sega encourage. They're shutting down the vibrant Melee tournament scene. And for that, they've earned my scorn.

You can like something your favorite company makes but also hate their actions.

Apple isn't a loving mother. It's an enterprise and we're just users. They shouldn't have such power at their disposal. It's bad for all of us.

The computing sector shouldn't be Apple's own private fiefdom.

Exit since I still can't post responses:

I'm taking this up with Lucy McBath (D-GA) instead. I hope that everyone else that sees the incredible harm Apple is doing takes an hour to write their legislators as well.

Probably because Tesla hasn't had much success in terms of advancement of automated assembly. They went down the same rabbit hole that a few other automakers already explored and discovered what others already did—that high levels of factory automation simply doesn't work. (Yet.)

At best, Tesla factories are currently comparable to the state of the art in terms of car factory automation.

> Is your point then that food is cheap because it is socialized at a 100% rate as you want healthcare to be? Or that your references to socialism are all red herrings?

My point is food is cheap because the government intervenes, it's not a free market as you make it out to be, and yes food is provided to those in need. However, there aren't many in need in no small part because food is already the cheapest in the world in the US. That's not an exaggeration [3].

If medicine were the cheapest in the world in the US then nobody would be calling for its socialization. The current system is an abject failure. The food market, while I disagree with it, would likely be defined as a success.

I'm saying that in other countries with socialized medicine costs are controlled far better. Medicare controls costs far better than the private sector. Canada's system costs half as much, covers everyone and is ranked better along basically ever major axis. Life expectancy is declining in the US. Healthcare in the US is among the worst in the OECD and far more expensive. [4]

I'm saying that it's not as big a leap as you make it out to be, and that there's lots of precedent, domestically and abroad.

> You are not defining coercion properly. It means force or threats of force.

Coercion (/koʊˈɜːrʒən, -ʃən/) is the practice of forcing another party to act in an involuntary manner by use of threats or force. Threats or force. Pay up or get out and die is a threat, IMO, levvied by the system.

But even if you choose not to take that definition - it remains true (the only thing I've been arguing) that health care is not a voluntary contractual agreement but one taken out of necessity on an uneven playing field. This makes healthcare not a free market under most circumstances.

> Apparently you define all government spending as socialism, making the only other possible form of "govt" anarchy itself?

"In the theoretical works of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels and subsequent Marxist writers, socialization (or the socialization of production) is the process of transforming the act of producing and distributing goods and services from a solitary to a social relationship and collective endeavor." [1]

Socialization in a primarily capitalist economy is defined as taking a for-profit institution and transforming it into an institution collectively funded and carried out for the public benefit. If the government owns and operates a service for the public benefit it is a socialized service. It is socialism - well, democratic socialism/social democracy. It is not incompatible with freedom, or democracy, or private property rights.

Yes, these are all socialized services. Explicitly yes for Medicare, Medicaid and TRICARE. [2]

The alternative to socialized services are privately owned and operated businesses. Not anarchy, necessarily, but libertarianism.

You're looking at it from a very individualist perspective. In reality, genes don't belong to the individual, or a tribe or species for that matter. Genes belong to the ecosystem i.e. genes favor behavior which is good for the fitness of the ecosystem (you could say it's because of the other way around, but you get the idea), even at the expense of the individual itself or other lower level organisms or super-organisms.
It will be clear if you look at it from a different perspective. White blood cells kill bodies own cells all the time. If you think the reason might be to protect the larger organism, it makes more sense. But there's more.

Think of the "freeze" response that, say, deer have when they get caught by a leopard. It would be best for the deer (and its family i.e. those with similar genes) if it didn't have a freeze response. It would be much better for them if they had a "fight till death" response. That way, every time a leopard caught a deer, it would get most likely get injured and leopards would be able to hunt fewer deer.

The deer has a freeze response because it has nothing to do with what's good for the deer and everything to do with what is good for the ecosystem. It's best if it outruns the leopard... but if it gets caught, it's best if it freezes while the leopard kills it.

P.S. The mainstream explanation of the freeze response is that "it helps the deer deal with the pain". However, they fail to explain what the evolutionary benefit to not feeling pain as one is being eaten is.
Well, he did not say that building cars is harder than building rockets, but that "building the machine that builds the machine" is more difficult.

I don't think car-free cities are easily obtainable. I can't think of one that currently exists.

Even cities with world-class mass transit, e.g. Tokyo and London, are full of cars, and taxis are still a better option for some trips -- even though there are also surface trains, subways, and buses to choose from.

In those places, step 1 has already been solved: convince the population that mass transit is desirable and should be well funded. London even charges congestion fees for cars. But they still can't achieve car-free cities.

Pollan's advice is so simple, but like many simple things it can be really hard for people to follow in practice. Sometimes it seems like we are way too good at out-smarting ourselves rather than keeping it simple. Food is really the simplest thing in the world - humans survived on this earth for tens of thousands of years before anybody knew anything about gut bacteria, vitamins, macronutrients, etcetera. I think it's best not to overthink nutrition and just try to eat good, whole foods like our ancestors ate. It also so happens that those foods are the most delicious and satisfying. I like Pollan's other principle of, "If your grandma wouldn't recognize it, don't eat it!".
Exactly.

At most places I've been if there is something like Jenkins at all a single person sets up and troubleshoots the jobs. The average dev just looks at red/green, logs, and emails but only interacts with the code--maybe they manually run a job. So you're asking them to now author and modify things in Jenkins and I'm not even sure accounts and permissions were set up. So that's why the dev group isn't enthusiastic. Then you have sysadmins who otherwise have zero interest in Jenkins and aren't familiar with it at all.

Jenkins is a very capable app, but it's not "light" or approachable. Introducing it to new groups of people for an off-label purpose is a tough sell. If you're already heavily using Jenkins and that same group of people need it for periodic task scheduling it's an obvious choice.

Why not simply make education free (or almost free)? Most of Europe has highly subsidized higher education and they manage to do it without falling apart.
When they decide to implement a hardware control, it's usually done well. But their records is hit-and-miss in my opinion.

Good: iPod click wheel, iPhone side buttons/switches, old chiclet keyboards, trackpad.

Bad: Butterfly keyboards, AppleTV remote is awful (swipes and edge-clicks for all sorts of things), their mice have always been a pain to use (wanna right click? Better lift your left finger completely away from the mouse)

But they also aggressively remove physical interfaces where possible. One-button mice, removal of home button on iPhone, removal of function keys on MacBooks, etc.

I hope they don't do that with a car. There should be a dozen knobs and buttons that have dedicated features. Not just wipers and signals either. I'm talking about volume control, seat adjustments, windows, etc.

> ...microservices are a technical tool for solving a people and organizational problem

They're also available to solve technical problems. For instance, it's hard to run some python3.5 and some python3.9 in a python monolith. A monolith must choose one python version and cut over en masse at some point. Microservices allow more gradual adoption (in production, not just in test suites!) of low level technology changes.
What really surprises me are my friends.

I've known them for years, we shared the best and worst moments of our lives, they are all intelligent people, at least for my standards, but when they use my phone to browse a website they think my phone is broken because I use an ad blocker and they see white squares were ads were supposed to appear.

They think ads are normal and their absence means something is wrong with the software.

They've watched them on TV and do the same with YouTube, they've listened to them on the radio and are not bothered if they hear them on Spotify.

But most of all they actually click on them and buy stuff through them.

I think getting rids of personalized ads is an uphill battle.

At this point the charging infrastructure is the biggest differentiator for me. I don't particularly care for Elon Musk, and I don't think Tesla vehicles are made particularly well. However, is there any competitor that has even 25% of the charging network that Tesla has?

Also, Apple can't even convert my voicemails into text. They seem like 3-5 generations behind the competition in machine learning. People believe they'll have a self driving car in a little over three years? Mmmmmmkay.
This seems really powerful, but I can't shake my discomfort with just how much magic is going on (and I say this as someone who's fairly intimately familiar with the traditional, client-side React/JSX/Babel/Webpack story):

- Webpack and/or React must be very aware of what the other is doing here in order to drop the server-only JS from the bundle. Is it even possible to use alternate bundlers with this feature?

- The React server has to be deeply concerned with the application logic to know how to transparently pass state back and forth, presumably via some generated JSON endpoints. I guess maybe this was already the case for hybrid client/server apps.

- What's the lifetime of "persisted server-component state"? A component lifecycle? A page reload? A user session?

- The react-fetch package that "works as if it were synchronous so you don't have to wrap it in an effect or anything" is, from the outside, super weird. How did they make an asynchronous call synchronous? JS doesn't normally allow that outside of an async/await context. Did they wrap the JSON response object in some kind of lazy proxy or something?

Of course "magic" is relative, and can do wonders for productivity in the right environment. I just find myself in a place again where I have no idea how these abstractions are actually working, and I don't love that.
DJ is for criminal situations, and only for specific instances. For example:

If I am accused of killing a man, and I am proven innocent, I cannot be accused of killing THAT SPECIFIC MAN again. If I was to go and kill a man, I cannot claim "but I was already exonarated for killing a man". Because it is not the same crime. DJ is all about being prosecuted for _the same instance of a crime_ more than once. Not that once I broke a law, I cannot break it again in the future.

This can apply to civil cases if a judge dismisses the case with prejudice, which means that this specific case cannot be put to trial again. Sometimes a judge dismisses the case without prejudice which indicates that the judge felt there was a case, but not enough supporting evidence yet. If a case is not resolved, it goes up the chain of courts, eventually a court may reject the case, in which case a lower court's ruling takes hold. If a case is resolved I cannot go to trial for that same case again. Nor can I use the exact same evidence for a new case. Or rather... I can but it will get dismissed with prejudice.

There is technically nothing stopping me from filing cases against you which were already resolved to harass you. But after like 2 times my lawyer's license will be revoked and possibly I will have a case against me for obvious harassment forcing me to cover any legal expenses. Overall courts really really don't like it when you act in bad faith, even if not criminally.
