There are solutions which allow to redirect transit TCP connections into SOCKS proxy transparently: https://github.com/cybozu-go/transocks

So, yes, VM/router solution will work for TCP connections.

Also there are wrappers which can intercept connect calls to libc from applications on Linux (which is useful if you need to redirect only one application which doesn't support SOCKS proxies): https://linux.die.net/man/8/tsocks
If I can self host it expect no ads (ie when I see that interface on an url that says 192.168...). If I pay a subscription for a service I expect no ads there.

If I buy a gadget and use the manufacturers’ cloud service “for free” (apart from the hardware purchase) then I expect anything.

I wouldn’t want to use a cloud service to access what’s on my own hardware. Apart from ease of configuration, what’s the point of it? Why wouldn’t I rather go to my own server?
> Lambda uses containers vs. cloudflare workers use v8 isolates. v8 Isolates are much much faster and more secure for serverless functions.

You're right that v8 Isolates are blazing fast, but Lambda runs functions in a microvm spawn by Firecracker [0], which is likely to be more, not less, secure than Isolates [1].

From understanding this is not supposed to add anything to existing workflows. The idea seems to be that the presenter can "live-code" the mathematical expressions during presentation, much like mathematics is taught at universities.
The most fundamental reason for that is that it's just not amenable to human mind. We are quite primitive actually, being able to hold only a handful of "things" in our mind at any one time and relying on abstraction to think of more complex things. However, you can't abstract much in biology; there is no locality or separation of concerns, everything affects everything.

Take that piece of RNA. An intuitive mental model is that it's some form of "instruction" or a bunch of instruction, isn't it? It's also wrong, because it just encodes a protein that acts the way it does only because of its shape (that is, one of its potential energy local minimums) and the shape of other proteins around it. That shape is only weakly local, it can be affected by far-away sections of peptide sequence. So it's almost impossible to systematically break it down, you have to consider and model things as a whole , which is insanely complex both computationally and cognitively.

If you want a good mental model of how it works, imagine you assemble a thing from metal balls and springs. You take a few thousands balls and connect most of them with springs of different strengths. You then take this thing and throw it on the floor; it will assume a shape that is implicitly encoded in spring strengths, its environment, and the way you've assembled it. You can even make it change shape if you poke on it the right way. That's how biology works in a nutshell; it's a nightmare to design anything for systems like that. Again, you can't simplify and break down and encapsulate and abstract like you do in programming.

Yes, Mikrotik allows tweaking everything, but if home user is not interested in that, there's Quick Set for configuring the common scenarios.

Opposite way is much harder, as we can see with Ubiquiti: they hide and remove options, that are needed. With USG devices, I could have config.gateway.json configuration for some of those hidden options (like having site-to-site VPN using hostnames instead of IP addresses... well, Unifi UI cannot do that, but strongswan doing the IPSec on Unifi has no problem doint that). With UnifiOS devices, they are not addressing the issues, they are taking away the workarounds instead.

So they can advertise as much as they want, until they make devices fit for the purpose, there's no point in purchasing them. I don't see the situation improving anytime soon, they don't listen on their own community forums.
They kind of were, weren't? As far as I understand, you'd get 1.5% minimum and you can raise it to 4% or 7% by bringing new people on board.
Is anything with future value being build by European companies?

AI, Crypto, VR, Robots ... not a single market leader is located in the EU.

I find it amazing that after missing the internet there is no discussion in Europe on how to avoid the same fate with artificial intelligence. There is only one European website in top 100 websites. And that is an Hungarian porn site.

> component per-file React app

Nothing in React requires to have one component per file. And you can do the same with jQuery or vanilla JS.

> equally arbitrary CSS file

Something makes programmers, who are usually very opinionated about their code architecture & patterns, to just throw it all away and just pile on shitty css code. It's almost as if they don't actually put any thought into it. Could it be that their Java code patterns just cargo-culting and they don't truly understand it? That can't be it, something else?

> React is readable with HTML, JS, and CSS all right next to each other

React has JSX, not HTML. And nothing requires CSS to be in the same component or file. It's still just an organizational issue.

From a distance I think Deno has a lot of promising features going for it. Expressing modules as URLs seems like a small difference but I believe it has big ramifications. With clever use of DNS resolving and caching I wonder how fast new instances will be able to spin up. I'm guessing it'll be fast!

My only gripe with the Deno company is that taking investor funding is a double-edged sword. Yes, they'll get to hire very skilled developers. However naturally the investors want a tidy exit, and I wonder if that would be to be bought out by Amazon, Microsoft or Google.

Edit: Just realized that there's a key difference in that Deno does not have something like NPM to be bought and sold because dependencies are URLs and thus decentralized. Also, Deno itself is open-source.

I think it's a (confusing) two-layer pun.

When read phonetically as letter names, the name "ic" sounds like "I see".

"ic" also is an initialism for "ice cream".

Everyone loves ice cream, and so another low-meaning cutesy-poo pun-ishment of a name was born.

I think. Pure speculation here.

> I think for most people the 'ceiling' is probably something like 25Mbps.

That's one 4K stream and no slack. Fine for a single person, maybe. But even for just the two of us, if I'm watching a UHD stream on netflix/amazon and she's upstairs playing a game and watching twitch, that's not enough. A family with kids is going to struggle to enjoy modern services on that, and that's before we get into larger downloads.

That's really not enough for a household in 2021, and I see no virtue in trying to 'make do' here.

> the emphasis should be on ensuring everyone has access to at least 25Mbps

I would be surprised if (here in the UK) there were many places you couldn't already.

According to figures I can find from 2019, we were at 53% having access to 300Mbps+, 42% with access to 30-300, 4.5% with only 10-30 and 0.5% under that, which is pretty good going. That lowest 5% are clearly lagging and in need of modernising, but I don't think it's wrong to say we can improve it for the 42% as well, especially as the network we roll out now is the network that forms usage patterns over the next several years. It's not just about right now.

Workers is now a much capable platform. It supports eventual KV storage, caching large files, longer runtimes (30m+), WebSockets, WASM-executables, and distributed mail-boxes àla Erlang.

I was idly wondering about this the other day (maybe php prompted it). Making release tarballs should become a reproducible process too [1]. That avoids the "hack the releaser's dev machine" attack if you verify elsewhere, or avoids the "hack the CI pipeline" if you verify on your dev machine.

My personal approach is to read the line by line diff against the last (gpg signed) release, useful too just to be reminded of everything that has changed. Not perfect, but will catch some things.

Wow when did they add that to TestComments?

I really disagree though. The native testing framework is overly clunky and verbose. It also makes things harder to debug when they fail. Just look at the example it gives! You don't even know why the test failed, it combines 4 different tests in one line. Are you supposed to inspect the entire object that gets printed out to figure it out? How terrible.

I think you missed a subtlety there, the point is not even the Chinese (people) want to be Chinese (citizens).

That is entirely separate from hatred/fear/negativity toward Chinese people and/or their culture.

I've always been in awe of what plate tectonics, or the lack thereof means for other planets in the solar system - Venus' lack of magnetic field could be due to a lack of plate tectonics trapping heat in the mantle, thus preventing the convection currents found in Earth's core that lead to magnetism.

And likewise, what would Mars' atmosphere be like if all the oxygen in its rocks was periodically liberated by cycling through the mantle?

And above all, I wonder why Venus and Mars don't have tectonics, but we do.

This is the context in which Liz Warren is making her comments. It's literally her job to know what Amazon's doing with labor laws and work conditions as they relate to being an American citizen.

When she talks about snotty tweets (quickly spun by enemies into a claim that the ONLY thing she observes or cares about is the sass) what she's decrying is the observation that they will abuse workers, rig the whole system to destroy worker protections of any sort, AND then sass you for objecting in any way to it, even when it is literally your job to be the framework of rules and laws that contextualizes their behavior.

Amazon's scorched-earth strategy is consistent with what they inherently are, but that's also their big weakness. Warren is right that they expect to dismantle all laws and rules that stop them treating Americans like enslaved workers in obscure Asian countries, and THEN they expect to sass you about it on Twitter if you don't like that.

They expect to act as Gods, because they can afford to be. I get how Bezos gets that impression, but he's mistaken that it is in any way a good thing.

While being very pro-market, I don't mind strong government action and strong government action is needed here an can work (see Airbus). But I am skeptical the EU has the will and is willing to spend the amount of money needed to pull this off.

Anyone outside the top echelons of the PLA/CCP who claims to predict when the invasion of Taiwan will happen is a soothsayer. That it will happen is a certainty, which means there's always a ready market of people willing to say it'll happen in the near future.

But one thing is certain - it's a question of when, not if. Taking control of Taiwan is too important to the founding myth of the CCP. Every reminder that Taiwan exists is a challenge to their power. Their desire for Taiwan has never wavered in the last 72 years, nor do I think it will ever. Meanwhile Taiwan's main defender (America) has no permanent allies, only permanent interests. Once the semiconductor supply chain is replicated successfully in the US, they might find that they're no longer willing to sacrifice American lives to protect the sovereignty of Taiwan. At some point in the next 10-40 years, Taiwan will be a bargaining chip America will trade away for something else they value more.
