Wait, who is dumber, the person who steals the Tesla, or the person who buys a stolen Tesla? It's a tracking device on wheels with hardly any valuable moving parts. It doesn't make any sense.
This doesn't really make sense. A general purpose computer isn't expensive. It's just a special purpose computer without the locks added on top.
I guess Matrix third Party bridges come closest to that today. Relatively speaking, it is just probably significantly less popular in use
Those same people from the Left were probably saying "it's a private company they can do what they want" when conservatives were getting banned en masse. Of course it was only a matter of time before they got purged after their usefulness had ended.

A few people will do it once or twice, sure. Doubt that's a sustainable market unless you can get the cost way down.
>There is a world of difference in free time between "having a 9-5 job" and "being in high school", though.

Funny how this works. In high school I had a ton of free time. In college, not a lot of free time and very stressed. Entering the workforce, again a lot of free time and very stress free. I expect free time will disappear if children ever come into play
Echoing the sister comment to add more color, I think when it comes to this scale of money, it becomes too easy to conflate public and private capability. The ISS cost $150 billion. That is a kind of cost that even the tech behemoths of the world today would not be able to stomach. Some efforts really require country-coffer levels of money to be realized.

That means the US government directly controls which projects live and die, simply because they control the purse. Most space endeavors don't require this scale of money, and even a small token of innovation incentives can often result in outsized societal benefits. Even for SpaceX to just think about the Starship program, they literally had to corner the global orbital launch market for nearly a decade to come.

While I do agree that Boeing is a money-pit due to their involvement with SLS, I still wouldn't put Virgin or Blue Origin in anywhere close to that bucket. While these two might not be as incredibly innovative and capital efficient as SpaceX, they're still orders of magnitude better than anything like the SLS, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and others that are considered "old space".

China is pouring an absurd amount of its own money through thinly guised military development arms, and they're excelling at it. It's truly a shame that the US cut them off from the ISS, and its even more detrimental that the rest of the world has not paid close enough attention to their efforts. They're about the only player that's even close to competing with anything like SpaceX.

I wouldn't put India in the same club as China either. India has done extremely well at making cheap reliable orbital class launch vehicles by cost cutting and incremental improvements. Once SpaceX comes to the scene, they will be obsolete. They do not have the public appetite to invest the scale of money required to build programs the likes of US & China can build.

Russia meanwhile seems obsessed with trampolines.
It's not top of mind at the moment
In my mind, following through on their threat is the worst thing Google could do. If they leave and Australia’s business and government suffer, other countries are going to make laws to ensure this doesn’t happen to them.
Seems sad to be them but this has always been the case with open source. There has been countless successful businesses established that run with on source software (think Linux, glibc, etc) and almost none of them payed back open source developers or contributed anything.

To say that developers/authors of open-source believe that if their projects get picked up by some big company they would also be payed seems silly and childish. This has never been the case, why would they even believe that? It was rare when a company payed open source devs for their work (and it made the news, like when RedHat gifted Torvalds a lot of stock before going public and it's not like Torvalds was the only kernel dev at that time).
Is it me or I see intel going down the PowerPC route now. I never imagined a niche micro-computer like acorn computers do something so revolutionary.
That's special purpose for the general public, the opposite of general purpose.
Is that the star fury sim? I played that for a little bit when it came out, I thought it was very cool.

There is a “Newtonian physics” button for Elite Dangerous where you can do star fury whip around moves if you want, but it’s not really an effective way to fly.

Apparently they hunt and kill deer and reindeer in Finland.[1] I would have thought the same but seeing your comment prompted me to do a search. Found a handful of YouTube vids claiming the featured Lynx killed the deer they were recording, but none of the first 5 I checked featured a Lynx performing the kill, only the eating.

Just rolled my own auth...yet again. Next time, I’m using this. Been following Userbase since it was first announced and it is now at a point where I’m comfortable using it on a project. Nice work!
ah, that's good to know. well, i'll say this, i bought one that only has 80 miles of range anyway since it's pretty much just used for short trips. most of my trips are pretty short so it fits my current needs.

based on my experience, i'd still feel comfortable recommending the used leafs for those who don't need 100+ miles of range per day.

That sounds like a positive thing to be honest.

Thank you for that assesment.

However i disagree with your conclusion.

Palantir has some magical data summoning activities.here is why

Circa 1990, if you said there was a way you could get any answer you wanted in 10 seconds or less,you would have been called a charlatan.

Then google happened. Google is not worth billions because it just has a simple UI and is accesible. No. They have figured out how to make the web searchable.

Palantir is the same. Just because search is not romantic anymore, doesnt mean they dont have magic to them. If aggregating intelligence data was such a no brainer , google or many of the others may have taken a stab at the problem.

Here lies what i believe is a contradiction. If palantir does not have "magic", then why do you mention one of the most valuable companies on earth to describe palantir's function?

In short, just because the u2 has wings and turbines, it doesn't mean it was just another plane when it came out.
I've found that for exams, mixing it up is the best way to stay attentive. Depending on the length (especially if it's a really long multiple choice–think SAT or something along those lines), I like to do a few problems then flip to the back of the book and work problems from there. When I feel my focus lapsing, I go back to the beginning and pick up where I left off.

I've found that this strategy works elsewhere as well. Simply mixing up my environment (working in a coffee shop vs a library vs my room vs etc) tends to make me focus better as I adapt really well to new situations but grow complacent in routines.

As for the social side, I've found that forcibly inserting myself into situations I might find uncomfortable is the way to go. I tended to group up with people who are trying a similar thing and we ended up forming a close bond, because I (and others like me) prefer fewer, closer relationships.

For example, I joined a Discord server someone made for my dorm. On the first day, someone offered to play cards with people and I went even though I would maybe normally stay in. About half the people there are in my friend group now.

Hopefully this rambling helps you :)

Not true. Many protocols were open (even one of the AOL protocols), and also security basically didn't exist back then, almost everything was based on trust and obscurity.

Suits can bring material

You claim:

> Human beings didn't evolve to be rational creatures - we're not Vulcans. We're born with good-enough rules for making sense of the environment around us and maintaining harmony with the people around us. It's a mistake to believe otherwise.

You also state:

> But I do believe those formal proofs are only really applicable to the mathematical and the abstract.

Do you not see the contradiction in these two terms? The creation of formal proofs implies rationality. The comprehension of formal proofs implies rationality. If people are only born with good-enough rules for making sense of the environment and keeping harmony who wrote the formal proofs?
No, not just current government. Both major parties fully supported metadata retention and the encryption ban. This is not a partisan problem.
Convince me otherwise! :)
Whoever controls the Internet accumulates enormous power. This is evident in things such as the enormous salaries of software engineers, social media's influence on public opinion, and Trump being able to stir his devotees to attack the US Capitol. I like the optimism of this piece - decentralized tech can revolutionize the Internet's cloud-based economy - but I would caution falling into the same hubris that technologists felt in the early 2000s about Big Tech. FAANG does not want to give up its immense power on the Internet, and there will always be somebody looking for ways to co-opt it if we move into a decentralized Internet economy.

It is entirely possible that there is actually no significantly better way for us to go about this. The assumption that life can be good and happy for all is just fundamentally flawed in the face of the human condition and physical reality.

In the absence of infinite and exploitable energy it's hard to see how you wont have a society that is going to directly or indirectly impose limits upon the individuals life and well being.

And given the differences in the human psyche it seems inheritently impossible to please all of the people all of the time.
By mitigation I don’t mean “after the fact cleanup” I mean to reduce the amount of climate change that happens. (Saying “stopping” or “averting” climate change seems wrong in this context since we’re definitely going to hit 1.5 or probably 2C).

Shutting down the economy is not better than business as usual. Business as usual is worse than cost-effective mitigations. Scientists estimate those could cost up to $1 trillion per year, worldwide, by 2030. That’s under 2% of GDP. Damage from climate change in an RCP 8.5 scenario will be many times that, 7-15% in the US by 2100. But it still won’t be nearly as bad as the COVID shutdowns, which wacked 30% off GDP while they were in effect.

That's because the average chess player would rather pay a $9.99/month subscription than pay $0.10/game. Even if they played less than 100 games a month this would be true.

The post said "is this materials decomposing or degrading".

While I may have not been precise about "degrading" part, we can assume the metal is definitely not "decomposing".
That sounds fair to me.

Perhaps the issue is that Elastic is getting so little from the Amazon product that they resent, essentially, adding features to the Amazon product for little or no return. Elastic noted that, in their experience, some unspecified number of Amazon customers believed the Amazon product was somehow associated with Elastic. Elastic implied this was a result of Amazon's use of their trademark but all of this is hard to verify or quantify.

RedisLabs fought a similar battle with Amazon, they also ended up making changes to their license. I really do think the issue here is the scale of AWS and the very large pool of customers tied to Amazon's offering: there are so many existing and potential customer using AWS that companies like Elastic or RedisLabs feel they can't write those potential customers off. It seems to me that if Amazon was interested in the well being of those customers, they would figure out a way to continue to receive improvements from these projects instead of forking their own versions.
I'm not sure I agree with that math for a number of reasons. For starters if you want to go strictly by averages, the average household has two cars, so your 9.2kW goes to 18.4kW out of the gate. Additionally that average includes teenagers which drives the mileage down, but households with teens tend to have more cars, so that means either they come out of the average or the 18.4 jumps to 27.6kW/day.

The average household uses <1200kWh per month. Adding another 18kW per day increases power usage by almost 50%, which goes back to: the national power grid doesn't have anywhere near 50% spare capacity.

And your driving behaviour is free data for training the auto pilot. The tech fetishism is actually clear indication of how badly informed people live without critical thinking. And prevailing argument is that there is no alternative future with privacy and regulations on big tech. What a dystopian dream.
10/10, I am mildy disturbed with myself that I know by sight with seemingly equal weight both language creators and serial killers.
In DDflow, you could also use the `Product` timestamp combinator, and track both the time that event came from, as well as the time you ingested it.
You can then make use of the data as soon as the frontier says it's current for the relevant ingestion timestamp, and occasionally advance the frontier for the origin timestamp at the input, so that arrangements can compact historic data. An affected example would be a query that counts "distinct within some time window". It only has to keep that window's `distinct on` values around as long as you can still feed events with timestamps in that window.
If you are no longer able to, the values of the `distinct on` become irrelevant for this operator, and only the count for that window needs to be retained.
> E.g., early versions of the programming language Fortran did not offer dynamic storage allocation, but some programmers would implement their own, say, in a Fortran array. Then for pointers to the allocated storage, just use a subscript on the array name.

Even today people do the same thing in languages like Java and Rust as workarounds for performance or semantic constraints of the environment while still nominally obeying language semantics. I assume the same phenomenon is true in the C# universe.

When you bring this up many users of those languages are quick to explain why array indices are safer than managing raw memory addresses from outside the language's object model, but let's not go there ;)

My first programming job used Objective C to make an iOS app. Back in 2013 XCode was pretty fast. My naive youthful self enjoyed using Objective C's Categories and Associated Objects to share some UI code across 2 UIViewControllers.

Did I get it to work? yep. Did it make senior programmers a bit nervous? yep. I wrote a blog post about it.

Later, I got to use Java for some Android apps, and after that we got Swift. XCode seemed to get slower with swift and Java(android) was more a limited language. No complaints, but it was just not as fun and easy as using Objective C. (in my naive beginner opinion)

Things were a lot simpler back then. I'll never forget my joy learning Objective C at my first ever programming job. RIP Brad Cox

Not in the US, but in Europe, delivery by car was fairly stressful (did that for a few months). Constantly risking getting a parking ticket wiping out days' worth of income.

So by “cost effective mitigation” I presume you mean something akin to: Investing in green infrastructure, international agreements, and carbon tax, right?
I don't think it's a bluff. Amazon threatened to shutdown in France entirely if they were forced to pull off sale restrictions in an impossible amount of time and their French warehouses went offline entirely, as promised.

The ISS exists to give Russia cover to keep the ex Soviet rocket scientists employed and thus not tempted to work for some evil dictatorship.
Objective C loses to C++ for performance if you really start exploiting OOP a lot. The fact the you can swizzle methods in ObjC says a lot about the "weight" of the underlying implementation ("it's all messages") compared to C++.
What does that have to do with anything I said? The point was that something previous claimed not possible was actually technically feasible. Completely unrelated to its morals, use cases, or value proposition. Do you now understand my point?
I the 1990s, when I started out as a working computer programmer it used to be said that 90% of software projects failed.

I have no idea what the figure is now, and now I have more experience, seen abject failure defined as tremendous success I would not be surprised if it si worse in fact and better in annual reports.

So, you've heard (from the right) that this is widespread opinion on the left, but when you looked at what the left says, you only found fairly minor voices expounding a somewhat weaker version of that claim? That sounds exactly like the 'weak man' thing we're discussing, doesn't it?
Exactly, Low T / Hypogonadism can be caused by either primary (testicles not producing enough because of some idiopathic reason or injury or even mumps) or secondary reasons (pituitary gland which is located in the brain not releasing hormones that would in turn signal the testicles to produce T). When trying to figure out whether its primary or secondary one has to measure FSH and LH levels, low meaning brain doesnt produce enough, high meaning brain produces a lot but testicles dont work as good. Mine was average so that was kinda weird, you gotta measure LH and FSH multiple times to get the clear picture. Brain contrast MRI didnt show up anything. If there was a pituitary tumor, thats the easy part actually since around 3-5% of the population has it but it is super undiagnosed since a lot of people dont have any symptoms, its very benign. Basically you take this pill called cabergoline for a few months, boom tumor gone and your T will spike up again. But otherwise you would have to do TRT, and add HCG to it if you want to preserve your fertility. But you have to watch out and get a really good doc or two, and research yourself on the subreddit and ask questions. Recently my coffee habits skyrocketed which plummeted my SHBG which literally destroyed my T again even though I am on TRT. If I didnt educate myself enough on this matter I wouldve probably given up and thought it doesnt work. You gotta watch out of SHBG and E2 while on it. Once you get everything right literally its a gamechanger, I mean anything is achieveable not kidding. There was also a guest on Joe Rogans podcast that started a nonprofit after he had uncurable depression and he was on the verge of killing himself and some doc found out he had hypogonadism and within a month the depression was gone, and since then he staretd a nonprofit for it and saved around 200 lives that way. If there was a Testosterone ETF I will go long on that with all my money...
"bad people might behave better to we can't ban them easily" is a pretty poor argument. Zuckerberg has $50,000,000,000; he can afford to hire some people to do the job.

The market has solved the problem of food: it is plentiful, cheap and varied. That has decreased the need to hunt to the point that most[1] of those who do so are making a lifestyle choice that is not strictly economical but does in some way provide a respectable and different experience or quality of life they enjoy.

Most land in Scotland is owned by large estate owners (think castles and thousands of acres).

We have extremely strict gun control and hunting is usually limited to employees of the estates or visitors who have paid a hefty fee to hunt on the estate.
Hunting here is much more controlled and limited than it is in North America or elsewhere.
