I've been in the business for over 50 years. I have always had, and still have an intense, driving curiosity about many things, mostly in the computer field. I've programed in lots of languages professionally, been a developer, wrote technical documentation, broke other people's software, built security teams. At the bottom of it is not so much ambition, but curiosity.
Sure, miners as holders of BTC can affect prices.

But it seems that the cost of electricity can drive down prices, not only up.

You said that price of electricity 'backstops' prices, and that miner spending $10K on electricity will need to sell that much BTC. Seems more like an inverse relationship. They need to sell $10K whether the price is $100/BTC or $100K/BTC, so lower BTC value makes more selling. Similarly, higher elec costs increase ready supply of BTC on sale, more supply lower prices.

On the other side, lower elec costs, mean more hoarding by miners, reducing sell-side pressure/supply

This would seem to make elec costs inversely related to BTC dollar value, not supporting it - so an effect, but in the other direction?

> And why focus on the Constitution over the Declaration

Because the Constitution — in initial form, the second adopted plan of government — represents more than the freestanding propaganda of the DoI, but real experience-based thinking about how to balance principles in tension with each other in practical government.

Let's have oil companies, banking and credit card companies, insurance, etc. stay out of politics too. Their involvement is nothing new. They all suck and so does big tech, so why treat tech as special?
The quote, "All models are wrong, but some are useful" comes to mind. The OSI model is useful but far from perfect. But you'd be doing students a disservice if you don't teach them about it at a minimum because the OSI model is part of the networking vernacular.
My favorite Rust resource takes exactly this approach!

> It should be noted that the authentic Rust learning experience involves writing code, having the compiler scream at you, and trying to figure out what the heck that means. I will be carefully ensuring that this occurs as frequently as possible. Learning to read and understand Rust's generally excellent compiler errors and documentation is incredibly important to being a productive Rust programmer.
I've had similar a few times. The most illogical was had a sales person (female) telling me (male) about how girls cant get ahead in the company, naturally in context to themselves.

I asked them what their boss was (female) and their bosses boss (female) and til a few months before, their bosses bosses boss (was female and recently changed to male). Was not a happy look I received.

And 100% there is sexism/racism in workplaces but in my small bubble of the world it feels a reasonable proportion of people put these kind of excuses on their lack of progression over looking inward, but I've tended to work in more progressive environments so maybe I've missed what the wider world is like.

I remember Matt Levine talking about how regulators would often find emails along the line of "Let's sell this crap to those idiots" and use that as leverage to force settlements rather than showing actual violation of regulations.

The reason being that it's hard to show intent to defraud, and much easier to threaten bad press.

Why doesn't Amazon show total price on order list?
When trying to reconcile budgets, I need to know what was bought for how much. On the order list page, Amazon does not show the total price paid, but makes you click into each item to see the total. Seems like a dark pattern.
As far as I heared (from youtube ,,conspiracy theorists'') the companies hired outside advisors whose whole role was to see if the movies / series were politically correct, or needed some change. When the pandemic hit, it was a loss quarter for Disney: both the films flopped, and Disney-land had to be closed at the same time. There's a story that the leads got together on a video conference call and decided that it's time to kick out the advisor, and I saw Netflix's stance change at the same time.

I was really sorry about Mulan for example, because it's one of my favourite cartoons, and I was really really looking for the movie remake. They made it politically correct for the US and cut out all the sex scenes and humor because of the Chinese government. I think it's one of the worst remakes of all time at this point.
The document itself that they used was probably at best a recreation, the content of the document was not invalid and verified by several that such a document did exist at least at one point and time and said exactly what it said.

I think it is a good example of how people hyper-focus on one thing to discredit someone or some thing and throw out the underlying truth because of it.

Edit: what I specifically posted was that you just can't say I don't believe that source... but that's a great example of how "I don't believe that source" usurped the original point for sure.
I mean just because this particular situation isn't racist or sexist, doesn't mean that racism and sexism don't exist in our industry.

You are painting an entire gender (or the majority) with really broad generalities, all under the premise that gender based discrimination is overrated and exaggerated?

But even presuming that you are right, it still means it's on all of us to stamp out whatever discrimination exists from our industry, especially those of us that are straight cis het white males. So that each of us can be treated on our merits, including those of us who risk being accused of discrimination rather than facing it.

Each of us should absolutely be able to give completely unfiltered constructive feedback to our female and minority peers, and if anyone has any questions or doubts about whether they can do so without concerns of impropriety, that is not is not the fault of the woke or feminists, but that of our privileged arrogant predecessors who have created this status quo in the first place.

The fact that I, as a straight white male have to be careful with feedback is a FAR smaller cost than ACTUALLY having to face discrimination I never have to imagine seeing.

Keep in mind, cartoonish levels of either are no longer present. What remains is frequent and constant micro aggressions driven by unconscious bias that the offenders may not even be aware of. Each individual example is easy to dismiss and explain in other ways. But in the aggregate, this adds up to, and drives people all the way out of the industry.

I disagree about it not being a useful model for teaching stuff. In particular as a facilities based ISP, you have to care about what the OSI layer 1 is, because ultimately an ISP is built out of real world physical things.

The article seems to skip over concerns about layer 1. But if you have no understanding of how things are engineered at layer 1, or of the possible failure modes, all sorts of bad things can happen. Or you'll end up buying the wrong thing, or getting bamboozled by equipment vendors once they realize you're not paying attention to the layer 1.

People not understanding layer 1 are how things happen like an ISP sending out somebody to try to install a 10GbE 1310nm/LX circuit to a piece of equipment that was shipped with a multimode SFP+ in it.

Engineering of large complex backbone systems encompasses the overlap between layers 1 and 2. For instance all of the optical engineering that goes into a inter-city DWDM system is "layer 1" - but those same DWDM chassis have 10/100GbE short reach layer 2 transport circuits hanging off of them, to connect to your own ISP's or customers' ISPs' network equipment. Then the controller card in your DWDM system is likely running some form of embedded Linux and has a 100BaseTX/1000BaseT interface in it with an IP address in a management network, it can have an snmpd on it that exposes a set of OIDs to poll by network monitoring gear, it runs an sshd on it it, etc. So you've got layer 3 and layer 4/5 stuff going on in that same 10RU DWDM box which needs to be taken into account in your network design. Maybe you have a system somewhere which periodically retrieves a text dump of the entire configuration of the DWDM box, whatever its equivalent of a 'show run' is, and stores it in git? That's all layers 4-7.

In the modern all-ethernet world, tons of possible configuration parameters for exactly how the 10 or 100GbE handoffs are set up on each side. And various configuration parameters. Ever encountered somebody who mistakenly ordered a 10GbE WANPHY circuit when it should have been LANPHY, or vice versa? That's an example of why an understanding of the underlying layers of what you're working on is important.

Only once you have a good solid grasp of layers 1 and 2 can you begin to properly architect your network at layer 3.

One thing that I do try to repeat as often as possible, if helping to train NOC and junior neteng people, is that things get very blurry between how software is set up at layers 4-7. The same piece of software that might be doing things at what the OSI model would call layer 4 may also have a end user GUI/presentation/operator interface that would be defined as layer 7. I do not think that mentally imagining rigid definitions between layers 4-7 is very useful these days.

I personally think that as a method of understanding network architecture, the first level of layers 1-3, and 4, are much more useful than the blurry "4-7" model.

I always feel like watching walking tour videos is my kind of meditation, feel-good video or AMSR kind of activity.

on a lazy day, a lazy weekend afternoon evening that you just want to chill out, I think nothing is more comfort than watching walking tour videos. you can just lay down, sit back, have a snack and travel with your eyes, you can "visit" places you had never been before. Wouldn't that feel great?

The core issue here is that getting cancelled may be a low risk, but it's 1: substantially higher than it used to be; and 2: An existential / Severe setback tier event.

The fact that the wolves would be out regardless of the veracity of the claims, and that there is no viable avenue for recourse here aggravates this.

Wrapping this up as "sexism" is the same kind of logic that gets you the removal of women-only sports as "sexism".

An interesting thing about CLIP is that when it doesn't know what something looks like, it instead generates pictures with the search text in them. That's why it confuses "an iPod" with "a piece of paper with iPod written on it".
We've tried many times and in many ways, but text is still the main interface for programers (and even for a lot of end user tasks as well).

As long as this interface remains undisputed, "everything is text" is a feature, not a bug. Arguably, one of Unix's greatest.

It is an argument for wrong reasons. Should female co-advisors get designated to talk to female founders?

My vtclean project [1] cleans terminal escape sequences. It handles the full ECMA-48 spec, and every behavior described by all of the vt100 documentation I could find, and observed behavior of many command line programs and terminals.

It has good test coverage, fails safe (if it doesn't understand a sequence, it still strips the escape character), and can preserve colors in cleaned up text. It is directly and indirectly used by quite a few projects. It receives extremely few bug reports, because I took the time to do it right.

If you want a good way to do this, probably start here. It's three short regular expressions and a simple state machine (to clean up single-line edits).

My only complaint about the code at this point is it operates on string instead of []byte, but I don't want to break the API and nobody has complained.

As someone who is thinking to release some dev tool I came up with a fresh (silly?) idea I want your opinion on: make a dev tool free for individual devs, i.e. MIT or similar permissive license, but oblige non-tiny companies i.e. 10+ total employees, to donate annually an arbitrary sum of money. Even 1 cent or dollar will do, the idea is that if they go through a hassle of asking their accounting to do a money transfer they will probably pay a little more especially if their devs praised the tool. One question I cannot answer is how to put it in words and especially in legal words. Other is will it really work or am I just day dreaming. If they stick to minimal pay of 1 cent/year it still is sort of great because I have an official customer and can list it on the "used by" page for extra advertising bit.

"If they did, the number of people of different ethnicities imprisoned would roughly match the distribution of ethnicities in US society. They do not."

> Look at some of the photos of the front of it. Look at how far out of the water it is sitting.

I'm curious how much of this is hightide vs low. If the photo is taken at low tide you have about 1.7m drop on the stern which is going to make it look far more stuck. While if the photo is at high tide, wow.

> And what happens when that causes you to rip a hole into the hull of the ship?

I cant see sand friction ripping a hole in the steel unless there are rocks in the mix. I think the bigger risk is cracking the hull if there is too much weight at the front vs displacing this across the entire hull.

> I don't think you realize the infrastructure required to unload a ship.

To this, while absolutely it huge infrastructure Im assuming they only intends to reduce weight, not unload. So some crane choppers or whatever can make a big difference taking off 5% of containers type thing. I even wonder if they want to keep the back loaded to effectively life the front... but that might exacerbate the risk of hull breakage?
