SSPL is marketed as copyleft, but it really isn't. AGPL is. SSPL requires not only that you open source modifications to the software, but also that you open source "management software, user interfaces, application program interfaces, automation software, monitoring software, backup software, storage software and hosting software" that you use to operate the licensed software.

If you want to offer ElasticSearch as a service, you have to open-source your entire hosting stack including UI. God help you if you pay for any proprietary software — you literally can't satisfy these terms. Notably, Elastic itself doesn't have to do this for its own hosting service, because of course it can't satisfy the terms: no hosting company I know of can.

The point of the license isn't to get contributions back. The point is to prevent competition to Elastic's hosting business. Elastic's new version of ElasticSearch is source-available software, not open-source, by pretty much any reasonable definition.

In addition to what others have said - most of the work you do with a therapist is emotional. It's okay for the therapist to have a skin color, perceived sex, perceived age, manner of dressing, accent, etc. - as long as those things just are. The therapist's job is to stay neutral, to have no particular emotional attachment to any of these qualities. That way, when there is a moment of strong emotion in the session, it's almost certainly introduced by the client, and then can be explored by them.

There's ironically a good example of this in the blog post:

"For you, the day [I burned] your village was the most important day of your life. For me, it was Tuesday."

Therapists can have race, gender, and age in the same way that it can be Tuesday. They just can't have race in the sense of having their village burned.

(And FWIW, it's very difficult to have an effective blog devoid of emotional content. I tried once and got accused of being a Markov Chain.)

This reminds of now node was forked into iojs. Somehow they found middleground and joined back.

Elastic seems to have shaken the AWS beast and they forked (which is legal).

Great insights in this article
Almost definitely U.2 drives that slot into the front of the server. Here's a cartoony view of what that looks like (on a P5800X Optane SSD): https://www.servethehome.com/new-intel-optane-p5800x-100-dwp...
>If they blocked POTUS and where owned by China then what?

then the president should, like all other presidents before continue to communicate through the channels available to her, including the white house press corps that follows her around.

Presidents conducting government business through private platforms should be banned to begin with because 1. it's insecure, 2. it creates a conflict of interest between a private account and a public office. Officials could start using their official accounts and followers to peddle private business interests. (in fact President Trump already did that when he started to advertise beans)
I don’t understand why there aren’t ghost groceries, similar to ghost kitchens or warehouses. Delivery is now large enough that having someone walk around a large store optimized for display, one order at a time, is super inefficient.

Just have warehouses/stores optimized for delivery and batch the orders. Boost productivity and start paying people decent already.
I think nothing makes this point better that their current business model (cloud hosting) is based on an acquisition. They had to acquire a business model...

I have a lot of empathy for Elastic here, it really sucks to see something you build being eaten by the 800 lb ruthless Amazon gorilla. But you can't have a company that starts with a bunch of OSS devs saying "open source lols" and somehow VCs throw money at it.
Electric motors have maximum torque from 0 RPM, which removes most of the need for a transmission. Think of it as a transmission being a patch for a limitation in a combustion engine. If you were switching from electric to ICE, you’d need to invent this patch.

Back in the XP days it was a veneer on GIANT AntiSpyware which as I recall was viewed as a separate component to anti-virus back then. As things evolved you saw combined firewall/anti-spyware/virus/adware from companies like Norton/Symantec and as you note MSE was really MS's anti-virus entry in Vista & 7.

Nowadays 'anti-virus' subsumes all those products into one unified thing.

I cannot call those backstabbing. They are more of the results of market competition.
As the scenario likelihood decreases, the probability of correctly identifying the associated recovery procedure probably also tends to decrease -- particularly for cases where recovery is not super clear and for cases where the scenario itself is memory intensive to describe or baroque -- "a occurred before b instead of b before a as normally expected and sensor d has condition c..."

I wonder if simulated error scenarios ever occur during flight -- could be a good way to expose pilots to rarely used recovery procedures within realistic day to day contexts ...
that is an option, but that is not how things operate now. this introduces other difficulties. We do not have space for 30 different charging stations which each has a different plug for bottom of 30 different cars. This will not scale.
I own two very different motorcycles, a Ducati Monster900 (a 900cc twin four stroke) and a Cagiva Mito (a 125cc single cylinder 2 stroke).

The Mito, you can let go of the throttle, have it snap back to zero, and you barely slow down at all no matter what gear it's in. There's practically no engine braking at all. If you want to slow down you have to grab the brakes.

The Monster, in lower gears, will skid the back wheel if you chop the throttle from 75+% of peak rpm. You can pretty much get that bike down to walking pace in a fairly short distance without touching the brakes at all. (Thats a game I sometimes play on it, see if I can get home from work without touching the brakes, just slowing down using the throttle and gears.)
Single threaded performance isn't keeping pace unfortunately.

One advantage of QM is that from outside the universe you still have some degrees of freedom : you can modify the phases without impacting the observable of the world.

You can make a pretty strong local change like flipping a coin, at any point in space-time without impacting the rest of the phases elsewhere too much, because the farther away in time and space from your modification, the more decoherent the phases would be and therefore their impact would be minimum.

And because the QM equations are time-reversible, you can propagate them backwards through time up to the origin of time. And you now have a new almost identical initial configuration, which when simulated forward will give rise to a universe that behave the same way until the time of the modification but then bifurcate.

The guy who interviewed me, who was to be my manager, said he shouldn't be telling this but I can ask twice as much.

I think you are conflating multiple groups. There is a group of people tired of woke culture invading their workspace. There is another group of people who are in a Pro-Trump bubble and believe that the election was stolen. There is another group of "libertarian / free speech" ideologues. There is another group who are surprised that a US President who had just received 74 million votes was "silenced" by big tech.

My guess is that most of the concern you see on HN is from people in the last group that are afraid of what it means for society if a President can be cancelled. Personally, I think that their concern is overblown because Trump wasn't silenced he is just too lazy to take the time to come up with another messaging plan. I assume he is still on Twitter under a fake name hurling insults out at everyone.
Really nice looking site. Also, you seem be hitting is problem we builder-founders typically dislike (and push off until it becomes a problem). Even though it is incredibly important for a successful business, I much rather be building that financial modeling.
"Scott Alexander" is who's famous, not whatever his vastly less-known real name is. His real name adds nothing to the story.

The fact that he slipped up at least once in the past doesn't mean the NYT should go and print it against his wishes, for zero journalistic value. They can of course, it's a free country, but it's a dick move.
Fun story about shared passwords in Bitwarden... I recently had to undo that process because I’m going through divorce. We aren’t at the point of severing everything yet but my ex took the liberty of using the shared Bitwarden passwords to sign into each of the utility (gas, electric, etc) accounts and change the passwords. Thus locking me out.

I had resisted doing anything with the shared passwords prior to this because the process to unshare an account is to delete it from the organization and make a new entry on your personal vault.

Ultimately the blame is on me but the process for unsharing is broken. I guess the moral is to just be careful about sharing accounts in a BW org if you ever expect you might have to undo all of them. It was about 15 accounts in all because we had also shared everything related to financial institutions and health care. I did take the time to change each of them as well since there was no way of knowing what may have been copied.
Yup, it's merely with assumption the electric PS network is solidly built guaranteeing availability in most places

It's easily doable if you increase the voltage. 600kw is easy if you're using 10kv, only 60 amps
This is Toyota. I doubt they'll target 100KWh batteries to start (though that's probably table stakes for when this will actually debut beyond prototypes).

If we reduce to something small but prototype ready (20KWh) and walk back their 10m to be "10m to 80% SOC" then the numbers are surely doable with our current tech.
It became clear to me with the recent layoffs.

Their strategy to grow their user share seemed twofold: better tech (through Servo/Rust) and dev-oriented features (their market share among devs was much higher than among the general population).

They cut deeply into both of these.
Google threatens to withdraw search engine from Australia
Some of us are systems/infra people for whom foundational stuff is where the interest lies. Some of us are product people who thrive on more direct user-facing value. It’s a lot easier for the latter group to find interest in integrating preexisting open-source building blocks, while the former wish they could be making the building blocks themselves.
I understand what you're saying, in that platforms need to hone their algorithms to serve actually relevant and useful content to it's users but there is also the other side, where the consumers of content need to understand what they're ultimately consuming. I can't help but bring up the countless studies that violent video games do not make kids more violent. Can the same be said for content consumed on social media? At what point is content "extreme" and at what point is it just content? Whose to draw that distinction? There are very obvious examples of extreme content but there are, I'm assuming, many more subtle ones that are possibly impossible to police.
That’s not a private sector problem
I don’t know, if I had the money to buy one as a show off car I don’t think I personally would, I would probably go for a classic Porsche thats more my taste.

But there is clearly a market for them and if people are willing to pay north of $500,000 for this https://www.cyanracing.com/volvo-p1800-cyan which in all honesty I like much more than the DeLorian there is clearly quite a bit of money to be made here.

I don’t think a DeLorian body kit for a Model 3 would be a particularly complicated engineering venture, and unlike the new Roadster you don’t have to design essentially an electric super car to make it appealing.

The Model 3 performance and range is quite attractive charge $450,000 extra for the nostalgia factor and if you make it a limited edition say 1000 units I can guarantee that they’ll be gone in a minute, heck at that price they might be able to even sell more than that.
I plan to test Scylla (and Postgres with TimescaleDB) out soon after done with basic Linux tests :)
Perhaps one problem with that is the modularity with various processors, which would have to know when they are configured with memory to which certain operations can be farmed out, and when they are configured with traditional memory that cannot manage those in-place operations.
The number was measured by giving a placebo to X number of people and the vaccine to X number of people. Then you find out that Y number of people with the placebo got COVID, and Z number of people with the vaccine got COVID. Compare Y and Z to get the effectiveness. I think X was like 10,000 or more.
That's just a valuation, based on expectations, hype, and chicken entrail readings, and not really all that useful. It's not like they have anywhere near $15 billion lying around. They made a net loss of $75 million last year.
Oh come on Google, surely you can think of a better way to make it screamingly clear to the entire planet that you hold a monopoly that badly needs breaking up ?
That's because CRUD people can do work that is far more leveraged than a hardware engineer, from the business' perspective. So the CRUD people produce more economic value.

One dev can spend 2 weeks automating some process or building a prototype web app that goes on to generate tens of millions for the company with no overhead.

Your hypothetical EE can spend 2 years designing a chip. The chip will then require 100s of millions of dollars to be spent on testing, manufacturing, and sales in order to be economically useful to the company (note that none of those functions involve the EE who designed the chip).

Sad? I dunno, maybe. True, yep. Nonsensical? Definitely not, there's clear logic to why certain kinds of work pay what they do.
So this post is actually extremely misleading. I just found another article that mentions her other remarks today:

https://www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Dr%20Janet%20Ye...

In those comments today she also said:

"Bitcoin and other digital and cryptocurrencies are providing financial transactions around the globe. Like many technological developments, this offers potential benefits for the U.S. and our allies."

So she said multiple things and does have at least an idea about the potential benefits. If I hadn't been mislead by this arstechnica.com article then I would not have made the other comment.

Good! We need to stop manufacturing so much disposable shit.

Yes, the economy will take a hit. We need new ways of defining progress than "money spent" and "shit manufactured". There are other ways to define and provide value in a post-modern society.
“A few cents” was the amortized cost of those transactions, if the lightning channel is indeed used for everyday activities.

It did work for them, didn't it?

The flip side of story is that ES or mongodb probably wouldn't have grown popular if they weren't open source.

Presumably the folks behind this would know that he was being transferred to Germany. I wonder why they would not have prevented it through some bureaucracy?

After getting my degree in Philosophy everyone would always ask me about Plato and Socrates... but, at the time, I had not read anything about either of them - my studies were focussed on logic and philosophy of the mind and cognition. At the time I felt silly admitting that, but I have since read a lot of antique philosophy and the majority if it is the same - a bunch of babbling with a few sprinklings of ingenious ideas. If you want to comprehend the immense ideas from great historical philosophers you are much better off reading primers or summaries with the high-points than reading the entire original texts.
What happens if you move to, say, 2kV? Higher differences in potential create bigger risks of arcing, and need thicker insulation. Can this be mitigated in connector design? Or is this just considered too risky to be anywhere near people?

I realize this doesn't address the heat shedding of the converter or battery.
That's exactly me, you described there!
So standardize the plug. Any electric car capable of high capacity and fast charging will have similar requirements.

The fine print involves no direct timeline for a commercially available vehicle: "Nissan Motor plans to develop its own solid-state battery which will power a non-simulation vehicle by 2028."

"The production site, located at a research and development center in Saitama Prefecture, will be able to produce dozens of tons of solid electrolyte annually staring next year, enough to fulfill orders for prototypes."

"Toyota plans to be the first company to sell an electric vehicle equipped with a solid-state battery in the early 2020s. The world's largest automaker will unveil a prototype next year."

Solid state batteries will be great, but we might not see them in vehicles on the street for many years.

Modern car styling is about as exciting as a mud pie. Go to any parking lot and try to find a sedan built after 2000 that doesn’t look like the same boring bar of soap with wheels. Sure they may have different grilles or headlight clusters, but these days I can’t tell most models apart until I get clise enough to see the badge.

I’d buy an electric delorian just for the unique style. I love the cybertruck’s look too, and although I wouldn’t buy one because I have no use for a pickup truck right now, I’d like to see more of them on the road and fewer white, gray, and black soap bars.
then insulation cracks + rain become a problem, as does arcing
