I would image that if another Boeing 737 Max crashes, especially if it crashed in the United States, that it would be the end of Boeing as an airliner manufacturer. I could see all the 737 Maxes ending up in an aircraft boneyard, and airlines looking at alternatives for other classes of aircraft too.

There's a huge fallacy where people believe that non-profits are supposed to be inherently more equitable and nicer than for-profit companies. And people who believe this fallacy get upset by executive pay at non-profits and turn to sites like Charity Navigator to find charities where 99 cents of their dollar goes to charity.

But the fact of the matter is that paying salaries to people who bring in more money than they make is a good strategy for everyone, that's why non-profits do it. Even if MegaCharity A only spends 60 cents of its income on charity but MiniCharity B spends 99 cents of its income on charity, MegaCharity A is still doing better for humanity if their annual income grows every year due to the strength of their marketing. MegaCharities can raise awareness exponentially and actually change the outcomes of some of the problems in our worlds because they have the power to raise enough money in one place with one cohesive plan to actually fight these things.

I grew up next to St. Jude Children's Hospital. Everyone has heard of them. They bring in billions every year. They have an entire marketing wing and a well-compensated C-Suite (compared to other non-profits). They have way way way more impact because of all these things than most other medical charities for children. No other non-profit in the world can offer completely free medical care to children from anywhere in the world and fly their families to live near them while they're cared for without spending the kind of money they do on marketing and executives.

Non-profits need executives, and people with the credentials to be executives have to choose between non-profit jobs that pay 1/8 of what for-profit jobs do. Sure they make more than a living salary while their employees struggle to make ends meet, but that's true of every type of organization. And in the end, they won't join non-profits at all if the money they sacrifice to do so is too high.

> Despite all this, I still don’t feel comfortable with Rust.

This was pretty much my entire experience with Rust. No matter how much I used it I didn't feel comfortable with it. I tried it out when it was still pretty young and it felt like a child of C++ and ML. It is just as feature rich as C++ and some people obviously like that. But I just couldn't keep up with it.
I love this! Keep it up!

Hackers news when at work is my goto for almost every moment I need a distraction from the current focus point to reset the mind that may have become bogged down. It lacks flashy content that is designed to suck you in, and if you do get stuck, it almost always a valuable gem of knowledge that you gain. When not working, it’s just a familiar and eclectic mix of news and stories that are presented in a realistic manner, and I love to scan the responses for alternatives of all kinds. I’ve almost given up on Reddit, it used to be my goto long agai, and Facebook is just a pain (with its see once and never see again system). Btw, I’m not even a computer scientist, I’m a geologist, but we do use a lot of tech surprisingly!

I believe Rust isn't exactly memory safe either: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24898579/why-does-the-ru... (and I think bounds checking can be turned off).

The borrow checker is a Big Deal™, but even outside unsafe blocks, Rust did not go all the way to perfect safety. Safety remains a spectrum, not a binary choice. The extreme end of that spectrum isn't Rust. It's using a proof assistant to mechanically check the correctness of your entire program.

Yup. It’s actually opposite of what he (the attorney) said. Gasoline (with a density of 0.72kg per liter) floats, and in fact it also evaporates. Which makes it partially self-cleaning (although there always seems to be some residue...). Not that gasoline vapors are great, but the local environmental problem could in principle be less than for an oil spill as oil is almost identical in density with water (light crude oil floats on water and heavy crude oil, like tar sands oil, sinks in water... although both tend to have both lighter and heavier components so both things happen).
That would be amazing. I get back my internet tomorrow and i can play with the dataset see how much we could optimize.
The problem with infosec,even during good times, is that it's a low paid job. I don't mean it's 10$/h or something, however taking into consideration what's at risk and usually the knowledge required, majority get paid peanuts. No surprise more lucrative deals of questionble sort pop up and attract the more talented ones.
This is a very morbid thought, but I wonder if the people who run LE ever travel via the same means. If somebody took them out all at once, would the web's security essentially crumble? This is the danger of centralized services, but moreso the crap design of web PKI.

All "usable" HTTPS depends on certs, right? And "usable" certs require a domain, right? And that cert for that domain needs to have been generated by a CA, right? But it's tied to a domain, and IP space. You have to prove to a CA that you both control a domain record and some IP space it points to. Nobody has designed anything to straightforwardly prove that in an unhackable way. We have shitty hacks, like "serve this unique file on this web server that this domain record is pointing to", or "answer an e-mail on one of 20 addresses at this domain", etc.

But none of those address what we actually want to do, which is just to prove that we own/control a domain record. That's the only meaningful thing in having a cert: proving that you actually own the domain record this cert is assigned to. And we have no actual way to do this. Literally the only way to prove definitively that you own a domain is to talk to the registrar, and the only way to prove that you control a domain record is to talk to the nameserver that the registrar is pointing to. The former we don't handle at all, and the latter is highly susceptible to various attacks.

You could remove the reliance on CAs entirely with a different model. You tie a private key to domain ownership, and a private key to a domain record. Then you only have to trust registrars' keys/certs, and you can walk backward along a cryptographically-signed web of trust. Your browser trusts the registrar's key X. The registrar signs your domain key Y. The domain key Y signs a domain record key Z. Your web server generates a cert using domain key Z.

For a client to verify the web server cert, they verify it was created by key Z, and verify that key Z was signed by key Y, and that key Y was signed by key X. Then any webserver can generate its own cert for any domain record, we don't need CAs to generate certs, and we have a solid web of trust that goes back to the actual owner of the domain, but also allows split trust via the domain owner assigning keys to domain records.
It should only be $10K, but remember it's not for the life of the car nor is it for the life of you. It is for the time you own that particular car and then you lose it even if they still haven't released FSD by then (which they probably won't)

I agree with you.

The challenge is that when companies are so focused on growing, they run out of ways to grow. For example, if they saturate their market, since they can't find new customers, the only way to grow is to get more money from each customer. So they seem to increase prices to those existing customers, create new products for those existing customers, or create new products for other customers (often advertisers).
If Quebec is running a profitable business, there's no argument in what I wrote?

The most I could say is that there may be unseen costs of nationalization. I.e. it could be cheaper still if privatized, but that is further afield from the discussion. In HN parlance I suppose I could demand that you provide evidence and sources proving the same power stations wouldn't operate more efficiently under private ownership, but I don't think that would be fair or friendly.
The Fukushima exclusion zone has a 30 km radius, where half of the circle is land area.

The Fukushima reactor meltdowns happened because active cooling failed, after both electric power and emergency generators failed becaused of the flooding from the tsunami.

These reactors were of a very old 1960s design that depended on active cooling to avoid melting down. This is not the case with newer reactors utilizing passive safety features, based on things such as gravity (to pull the fuel rods out in case of power failure).

Still: There were zero deaths caused by radiation during this incident: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima_Daiichi_nuclear_disa...

Yes, in fact the only reason most people (not all) use it because there is no real alternative. Sometimes it is the only tool on the table (the environment).
Correct. Although there is only one brand that has sold a Tweet NFT for $3mil.

The enforcement, interestingly, is more traditional; the owners of the "Valuables by CENT" trademark can use existing legal structures to prevent anyone else using that name.

Meanwhile the NFT is digitally linked to the Valuables by CENT smart contract on Ethereum, which will presumably have an 'author' property attached to it, set to the string "Valuables by CENT".
> but like the Wankel rotary engine no-one is willing to bear the cost of redoing the last 70 years of engineering optimisations

Mazda tried bringing this back with the RX-8. It was a failure, and while everybody loves the "spirit" of the wankel, outside of the infamous 787B I think people are always going to remember it for the theory instead of the application.

If we're going to talk about using modern engineering capabilities, perhaps we should be discussing the quasiturbine engine? At least in theory it solves many of the problems of the rotary engine, although I suspect it will be a nightmare of complexity that never becomes reliable.

If you expect that someone just wants to steal your money (and I am not saying such expectation is always wrong), perhaps you just shouldn't give them any.

On the other hand, if you trust that someone wants to do a good thing, they probably have more information about the topic than you do, so you should give them freedom to actually act on that information. Like, maybe you think "X is way more important than Y", but maybe the lack of Y is actually what prevents them from doing X efficiently, so your restriction to only use the money for X is not helpful, even from the X-maximizing perspective.

Like, sometimes your mission is to distribute food to starving kids in Africa, but you can't organize your volunteers until you buy a new computer, because the only one you had just broke. Then someone gives you a paycheck with big letters "only use to buy food, I don't want to see you wasting money on computers". Yeah, thanks a lot, dear condescending saint.

IMO he nails it on the head with the Buchwald anecdote.

> would you pay for better content?

Impossible to answer. I would absolutely pay for better content but (a) can't tell if it's really good before I pay and (b) I have no guarantee the creator's incentives won't shift and they will keep serving good content.

I don't care about $5. I don't care about $100 even. But I can't be guaranteed that I get value for my money. It's always the same problem.

Furthermore, even the mere fact of paying content creators already shifts their incentives so you're kinda spoiling the pool by entering it (another poster remarked that they could just make good content shortly before payday and then go idle).

Not sure what's the solution but I mostly side with the "get a real job!" side of the argument even if it's far from the perfect response in this situation.

> "Why are you both acting like this conversation is about 'low income people' who 'ride bicycles to work to make barely above minimum wage?'"

Because HBCUs are a gateway to the middle class for many low income people who come from generational poverty? It's an outlet for many first-time college students and those scraping toward the middle class.

And the 'ride bicycles to work to make barely above minimum wage' is from both personal experience and the fact that the generationally poor are largely dependant on forms of transportation other than personal vehicles.

> "It’s ignorant to turn every issue involving Black people into a discussion of inner city poverty. (And especially ignorant in the context of discussing HBCUs, as in this article, which are a pillar of the Black upper middle class.)"

HBCUs are a pillar of the Black upper middle class, but the majority of students are still lower-income. So it's relevant to talk about low-income students.[1][2][3]

Sort of: since 2017 the number of CVEs have basically gone up a steady 8% per year [1], but the fact that you only noticed it this year also suggests that this alone is not why you noticed.

The more likely reason you're noticing is that thanks to covid, and the accelerated death of real news services, combined with the echo chamber effect where we're all reminding each other of how bad things are, means you're getting more exposure to sensationalism, because that echos the best. And hacks certainly qualify as sensational, especially on slow news days, where news services desperately need clicks, and "X got hacked" gets those (even if it's a report on a hack that isn't actually one, like when someone walked into a data container with tens of servers, one of which happened to be rented by a password manager).

The real wtf is what happened in 2017, though.
