Cool. Then yes, I don't view milk as fitting the definition above though I realize many do.
Hi! All tenants are completely isolated from each others but FlashDrive is a load balanced service so the IP is advertised is the one of the cluster you are in. Note that we recently switched to a segmentation inside a datacenter to mitigate that issue and tenants are placed randomly inside clusters located in a datacenter (with a different IP address by cluster).
Also: gravitomagnetism is taught in pretty much every textbook on GR. It'd be a bit surprising if the people who wrote those textbooks (e.g. Steve Weinberg) didn't notice that elementary topics in their own textbooks could solve major problems in their fields.
How well does this work compared to AirDrop?

AirDrop was hopeless when first released, then I didn't even try it for a few years. Two years ago it worked well a couple of times when I needed it, but last week it didn't work.

Hardly scientific, but the point is that AirDrop is one of those things I'm aware of as being available in my Apple-centric household. But experiences have turned "send it over AirDrop" into a go-to "talk to the hand" joke between myself and my SO.

The thing works by encrypting a file using a password derived key (if I understand correctly) which then gets uploaded to their infrastructure. You get the url, containing the password (used to derive the key). There's no point and no way tricking you into sending it to them, i.e. setting up a MITM attack.

The client could just leak the key, but as far as I can understand, it's open source so you can prevent it by building it yourself (and either trusting others or auditing the code yourself too).

As the password is in the URL and you'll send the url through another channel, there is no way to MITM it (decode and then recode for the recipient). And wouldn't make sense anyway, since there was no key exchange, the recipient does not provide the sender with a key to use.

So yeah, they can absolutely look into your files - if they steal your key. (They could do it on the receiving side too, BTW.) But you can't sidestep this with any encryption software: you have to trust at least the encoding and decoding app. (Also, I think you can self host this.)
> just CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE

How do you do that if you're not root?

And if you are building an executable with that capability, how do you enable your Makefile to set it?

I think we might need "CAP_SET_CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE" as well.

In fact, I might want to allow a user to bind to port 200 only.

So in this case "CAP_SET_CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE_PORT_200" is needed.

And here we see the inflexibility of the entire approach :)
> 'F6' means nothing to me. Where am I supposed to look that up? In a manual? I don't want these kind of context-switches.

Yes. Yes, you are meant to look up the keyboard shortcuts of software programs in their manual, or Google them, or otherwise RTFM. It's part of learning one's tools.

Speaking from personal experience, the critical importance of memorizing keyboard shortcuts was drilled into me by years of PC gaming as a kid and teen. (Imagine playing StarCraft with just the mouse... Ugh.) I wonder if people who grew up with computer games are more likely to embrace keyboard shortcuts later in life.
>LGBT people generally do not want to be cured (with a few exceptions, mostly religious people who believe their identity is "sinful"). The "solution" to discovering that one is LGBT is generally to accept that for what it is.

I don't claim LGBTQ to be an illness, nor do I presume to speak for everyone, but it's disingenuous to claim people don't want to be cured, when there's no realistically available "cure".

What if in a near future a new drug becomes available that would allow people to change their gender identity? If people get offered a voluntary choice to either take a medicine and alter their mind to fit their body, or undergo a physical surgery and alter their body to fit their mind, or do neither - can you claim to know which percentage of people would pick which option?

I don't, and I won't assign a label on any of the groups, or declare them traitors to some abstract cause just because their decision won't fit my own mindset, or currently prevalent liberal ideology.
Handling flammable metals fires by burying the fire load in sand is not uncommon. As other people have mentioned, there are special extinguishing agents out there that handle flammable metals (Class D) fires, but they're expensive, and not all fire departments have them. And many departments that don't specialize in industrial response may have a Class D extinguisher or two, but nowhere near enough extinguishing agent to handle a large fire.

OTOH, large industrial plants often have their on on-site fire brigades that have specialized equipment and training specifically around the unique hazards found at their facilities. Not sure what the situation was here at the Tesla plant. But I can say that if my old volunteer department in a mostly rural part of NC had ever encountered a large flammable metals fire (the most likely scenario would probably have involved something in transport, and a motor vehicle collision), we would almost certainly have started requesting dump truck loads of sand, and a front-end loader.

I'm wondering what process uses molten metal. Or if it was another process that ended up creating molten metal (like a battery fire of some sort).

Given the hydraulic fluid mention I was also speculating that a gigapress might be involved.

Like everyone commenting I am always amazed at exothermic events that can't be put out by water or CO2. The only one I've ever seen "in person" (other than the obligatory set some magnesium on fire in chemistry) was a halon dump on an IBM System 370 when the water coolant system burst a pipe and shorted the many bus bars. That one triggered a 15 second siren followed by a halon dump. I found it quite exciting, the plant manager, not so much.
I’m not sure I understand why people are struggling with how to interpret the post.

It reads very straightforward to me:

1. He went through bootstrapping several times, reached great profit at 2 hours a day of work and had a big exit, and achieved freedom to do whatever he wants for a bit.

2. He spent a lot of his newfound freedom filling the day with improving himself and keeping his options open to do anything he wants

3. Then he took a step back and thought about what it was he wanted in life, and that was spending time with family, stability, structure, and committing to a thing. So he went to work for a big corporation that would fill the part of his day that he had been spending on himself alone

4. And is now more fulfilled. The takeaway being that if what you know what you want to be fulfilled you don’t need to grind away at bootstrapping a startup to achieve “freedom” and that with all the freedom he has he ended up working in big tech because that fit his goals and still enabled all the things he wanted in life.
The mess is by design.

I agree.

It's a shame that the "public square" became privately owned. Google/Twitter/Facebook/etc all have advertisers to answer to and they'll pull the plug on someone not by any fair means of measure but how it affect their public image (and really their bottom line.

Honestly, I'd rather the "deplorables" do their thing in public rather than in their private channels. At least in public they'd have to defend their ideas against the general public and I do think their ideas would not hold muster.
about the same for me too.

I'm not disagreeing at all (I'm not familiar enough with the system to disagree), just curious about your reasoning on uniform pricing for all payers?

The reason I'm curious is because using your car analogy, if I was a barely competent mechanic then management would probably be fine letting me perform oil changes, but when a classic Rolls Royce comes in with all original parts, management isn't going to let me touch that, right? They'll need to call in the big guns, whose rates are definitely higher than my "oil change" rate. I know that doesn't directly map with how medical procedures play out. I guess my real question is when and how does that balance out?
Shareware and distribution of the game through the internet was a watershed moment that helped sell a lot of Wolfenstein and doom in 1992 and 1993. It is doubtful that a company like Nintendo would distribute a game like doom. PS was a few years after that. Are these statements correct, or hyperbole?
I'm curious as to what you use FULL OUTER JOINS for - I've so far never felt the need for them in my own work but I'd love to understand what I'm missing out on.

Yes, I think I read a little too much into your piece. I had on my mind at the time a certain prominent former Rust contributor's repeated bashing of M:N threading as well as the silly firestorm that erupted from that (admittedly not great) recent blog post critical of async Rust.

I used to record, in stereo, everyday life. i started with a 32MB smartmedia recorder, then to a cheap-ish compact flash recorder, to a minidisc "net" recorder - the audio i recorded with that netMD is still impressive to me, it feels like you're actually in the recording that i haven't ever replicated, even with the same microphone on other, more advanced devices like tascam dr-05 and the tascam quad channel, or even line in / mic on a computer, regardless of the sound card. I can go put a pair of headphones and a single AA battery into my MD device and be transported back to my college campus, a few of the industrial companies i worked at, the concerts/performances i was asked to record for friends, or even a small gathering/party/game night.

the only stuff i've heard that was recorded by amateurs that comes close (and possibly surpasses, depending on who's running the conversion / editing) is DAT recordings using the microphones shaped like a human head, for "perfect" stereo separation.

anecdotal, for sure, but the "compression" - ATRAC - was extremely good, especially at that time. I am aware that CDs have "no compression" on the data, so obviously DAT -> CD would sound better than MD -> CD, but this is my opinion.
I'm along this spectrum, but not nearly so far away.

I like chat programs used as email - that is, non-real-time. I have lowered my anxiety a lot by realizing that texts are not realtime in my life 98% of the time, and to treat them accordingly: Checked on upon occasion.

> then just mechanically kick it down (store up energy from the sun and then trigger a solenoid). the debris itself becomes your propulsion. you get a tiny boost up, perhaps towards your next target, and it gets a (admittedly!) tiny boost down

This doesn't actually work. If you push something down in orbit, you just make its orbit elliptical. After half an orbit it will be at the same altitude as you again, and after a full orbit it will hit you from the top. If you want to lower its orbit, you need to push it back.

Orbital mechanics is weird.
I'm not even sure I understand what you are asking, do you think that memory allocation is always bumping a pointer a uniform amount with no memory being freed, no variance in allocation size and no interlaced lifetimes?

You originally said that memory allocation was 'just a few instructions' when the reality is that it is complex and avoiding allocation is the first thing to do when optimizing software.

Saying that memory allocation is simple and fast based on a scenario that should never happen because it's useless is a little silly. No, that is not how allocators work.
Fair. But there is also some assumed knowledge of what futures and puts are, no?
Rust one you mention is multiple-producer single-consumer. And it is not nearly as feature rich as a channel in Go. By the time one deals with tokio, async/await, passing the (rx,tx) to the right thread with clone()/copy(), the developer would be tired. There is a huge difference in library implementations of channel vs native language support

Of course, if all your side ever does is "fighting for people to have these rights, without anybody else loosing anything", then you are the good guys.

Thanks for this; reading your explanation reminds me of the objections I had too.

It does mandate something to that effect: the user should not have to spend more effort to disagree than to agree.

"Cheap" was an overstatement, but in general, modern industrial methods lead to consistent quality and downward price trajectories.
Healthcare is such an asymmetric market that there will never be enough information for patients to price things accurately.

It's like if every road we drove on had a different toll every time we travelled on it, and we didn't quite know what the total would be (or what construction projects you might encounter along the way) at the end.

It's made worse by the high value people put on their health and their low knowledge of healthcare in general.

I worked in a hospital for 13 years, most of it on the billing and medical records systems. There was a single project I recall that tried to do price estimation for patients up front. It worked best for lab draws because a fixed number of vials were drawn for a finite number of predetermined tests. Anything beyond that involved human judgement at the time of service:

A doctor decides which X-ray views they want taken after seeing an injury, and may need to order more after the first results, and the radiology tech has some leeway in how they actually perform the imaging. A choice between X-ray, CT-scan, and MRI is pretty much an order of magnitude difference in costs between each, and determining whether an injury is bone, soft tissue, organs, etc. may require any or all of them.

Surgery is wildly unpriceable. The number of shots of anesthesia will differ for weight, metabolism, actual length of a procedure, and individual reactiveness to the medication, and the anesthesiologist may need additional medications to stabilize a patient's vitals. Each surgeon is making similar decisions as they go along; all of it has a cost and some tools/medicines are pretty expensive but no good surgeon will have price in mind during surgery; they'll use the best available method.

The article wants to blame insurance companies for price variation but that's a bit of a red herring. Every clinic and hospital does different numbers of various procedures and has different patient demographics so outcomes and severity will vary. ERs and cancer treatment are notorious cost-centers, whereas radiology services and outpatient procedures are the money makers.
Hospitals and clinics have no choice but to pick and choose a set of services each year to raise or drop the prices for even before negotiating with insurance companies on actual reimbursement. Medicare and Medicaid also reimburse at (even lower) fixed rates so hospitals are always balancing costs for the number of commercially insured patients against government insured patients. Hospitals can't refuse emergency service to anyone, so they're also forced to eat the costs if they don't play the pricing game to cover ER and subsequent treatment costs.

The whole thing is a terrible mess and socialized healthcare is the solution.
Threads and blocking calls is the programming model exposed by Go and the fact that it can do this efficiently is the few notable accomplishments of an otherwise unremarkable language. Many people find threads and blocking calls to be much easier to reason about than the async model of, for example, libuv.
The corruption is terrible and I'm glad he was caught and prosecuted but it's weird to me that the topline salary figure is so prominent. He oversaw a $500 million budget and made the equivalent of a Googler with 3 to 6 years experience? Or a Citadel Securities/Jane Street/Hudson River Trading engineer with 0-2 years of experience? That part is hardly salacious.
Car phone service in Chicago was launched in 1946 and reached capacity within the year.

>On October 2, 1946, Motorola communications equipment carried the first calls on Illinois Bell Telephone Company's new car radiotelephone service in Chicago.[2][3] Due to the small number of radio frequencies available, the service quickly reached capacity.

Widespread adoption of mobile phones was limited by availability (or distribution) of radio frequencies. Laptops were adopted between 1987 and 1991 as soon as the input device was figured out. The 3G smart phone was figured out between 2003 and 2006 (the time most markets took to adopt 3G data). The modern touchscreen smartphone was figured out between 2007 and 2010 (the rise of the iPod touch and Android).
Let's not confuse or conflate the bounds of in-person speech, with printed or online content. These differ slightly.

> Similarly, the fact that a hate speech law can be abused is not a good argument; plenty of laws can be abused, including, say, anti-terrorism laws.

False equivalency, red herring, and two wrongs don't make a right. Laws can be written across a continuum of vagueness and precision. Laws must be continually updated and oversight assured so that policy underpinning is implemented in good faith and appropriately. Crafting particular words for a law alone is insufficient to accomplish the presupposed objectives. The real world doesn't work like that.

> What makes you think the mentors will be any less susceptible to radicalization than the people they are mentoring?

Did your professor allow this kind of crap to fly?

> This is an argument for doing something

You proved my point for me. Tragedy of the Commons makes everyone's responsibility no one's responsibility. No one else is likely to do something just because you talk about it but don't walk the walk. "Be the change you seek" because waiting for Godot is a terrible idea. Take ownership yourself and do it.
