I found this sentence a pithy summary of the whole article:

"Jats own roughly three-fourths or four-fifths of all agricultural land in Haryana and eastern Punjab, respectively. Nearly all medium- and large-scale farmers in both states are reputed to belong to the Jat community. The farm protesters’ claim to have mobilized 200,000 tractors for their Republic Day rally on Jan. 26 confirms the prevalence of relatively large-scale farmers among the protesters, given that few Indian farmers own enough land to practice mechanized agriculture. Even today, the typical Indian farmer is still 10 times more likely to own a bullock than a tractor.
"

This is a protest by a community of 1-2 million rich farmers afraid that their monopolization of government supports will be questioned by the other 300-400 million poor farmers who subsist without state support on meager holdings.
"The Roman Empire never fell, DEBATE ME"

Though seriously, thanks for writing this up. This is a great explanation of how periodization says more about the "periodizer" than it represents some sort of objective truth about history, magically divorced from the political reality of successive historical writers. Debunking bad history is important... in this field (CS) I've definitely met my share of so-called "STEMacists" whose mental model of history sometimes seems to be derived from Deus Vult memes... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Think again. You have been brainwashed. You buy a car so that you can go to work. You know that the car produces more value than 2% deflation. You don't buy the car if you don't have a job.

What happens to economy if people buy only things that last a very long time or things that increase their productivity? What happens to economy when companies are forced to produce those things?

Inflationary economy is a total disaster. We produce things that don't last to consume things that don't last. Insane amount of human work output is wasted.

If you measure economic growth by amount of pointlessly running in circles, then yeah inflation is good for economy.
That’s fine. I think it’s a great project. But I want someone else to worry about what happens during each firmware update. It’s not trivial.

....8000 years from now, as part of the normal interglacial cycle, which is exactly what I said. And given that civilization is less than 10000 years old, just returning to the previous ice age would technically fulfill the quote you tried so hard to pull out of context. Did you actually even read the entire abstract?
You don’t need to have been to China to know that Tibet and Hong Kong share a similar fate.

Hong Kong will fall because China can’t allow it the freedom it needs to operate. The intellectual and financial capital that hasn’t already departed will exfiltrate and all that will remain are CCP party faithful who never had the skills or motivation to succeed the way the original companies did.

The outside world will see the same Hong Kong names but those will be preserved hides over an eaten-out corpse.
The example I always think of is from Lincoln's Second Inaugural:

"Both parties deprecated war; but one of them would make war rather than let the nation survive, and the other would accept war rather than let it perish. And the war came."
That fact that calling a function on a type does not inherently dereference the pointer seems...nuts.

Fun fact - a lot of Ubiquiti's engineering is located in that same "east EU country". In fact, if you look at the open positions - https://careers.ui.com/positions - it appears most of the development appears to happen in Central/Eastern/Northern Europe.
Good luck! If you think of it, post a reply back here letting me know how it goes.
>Unionization is a correction of the market if anything,

Nope. Injecting money into lower end income levels, through things like raising the minimum wage to $10-11, or social welfare programs, causes every company paying minimum wage to slightly bump up their salaries - thats a market correction.

Unionization is economically equivalent to rent control, which is not a market correction.

The reason why rent control doesn't work is you basically people who cannot otherwise afford to live in an area, and artificially increase their net worth. Of course they want to stay in the area, which decreases availalbe housing supply, prevents building of new housing supply, e.t.c and so on with cascading effects.

With unions is the same thing. People who are not worth $15 an hour because are slow are artificially inflated, and now they get put into a job that is hard to fire from, which then in turn leads to companies less likely to hire people, which decreases labor supply, and has other cascading effects.

>It's an interesting admission when you basically say that Amazon's worker productivity depends on coercion.

As is the case for any non-protected unskilled labor position, of which there are plenty. Amazon perhaps does more metric collection and expects a higher throughput, but they also pay accordingly. And people don't have to work at Amazon if they don't want to.

Its interesting though that people chose to focus on Amazon when talking about this, instead of all the companies that share similar working conditions. Kinda shows you where your priorities are, which is not in discussion of things that could benefit the lower income class.

Linux distributions like suse or redhat actually bootstrap autotools during build, to.enforce consistency. at least they did 10y ago.

you will sometimes run into subtle forward porting issues doing this.

that's why not doing this and using the generated Makefile and ./configure is a good idea (tm) for most consumers of packages.

Yes. Mouth bacteria and viruses in human mouths are the factors. Not something I'd be super worried about in general. (That being said, I was bitten by a psycho when I was 8 and didn't die so that's cool.)

It doesn’t seem like they actually “collect” this information with any identifier and only use it for limited strict purposes. This is unlike google who can pop up a map of everywhere you’ve been minute by minute over the last 5 years. I guess that’s only when you’re logged in to your google account, but that’s 99% of Android phones.
Yeah, if you get bitten by a homeless individual (or any individual), you need to be rushed to the ER to ensure you don’t get dangerous bacteria in your bloodstream running free.

Edit: there appears to be debate over my wording but just please don’t miss the lesson here: seek medical attention if bitten.
It also has a timed lock, which I have seen applied as a group policy.
Strange comment. I have to imagine that the part you find "good" is the lowered viewership? Or what is the "good" part to which you're referring?
Yea, you are correct in your understanding, but such code is super rare in my experience. In fact, until recently I didn't even know such behavior exists at all. Answering your question, checking if a pointer is `nil` isn't that common among gophers. A more common idiom is to return both a pointer and an error, and then check if error is not `nil`:

user, err := users.FindByID(id)
if err != nil {
return nil, err
}

If the return value is just a pointer, in my books a nil value should be avoided. I guess what's not cool here is that there are no guarantees. If I'm using a library in which a function returns just a pointer, I sometimes jump in the function's body to check if it ever returns nil so that I don't have to pollute my code with `if` statements. Like, you almost never check for `nil` when dealing with simple factories, eg foo := NewFoo(). However, when it comes to a more complex method calls, it might be safer to add a quick `nil` check and forget about it.
Why, they also have no evidence now!

But wasn't the cycling top 10 basically decimated by the PED scandal? I think only 1 (or a couple of) cyclist(s) remained unscathed in the top 10 rankings. I'm going on memory, but they really gave the appearance of cleaning house, to an outsider like me. Had regulators gone after 4 or 5 manufacturers, including home-team companies, it would have been much better, and would appear less like Americans piling onto out a German manufacturing bellwether.
For what it's worth, we've been running about 15 TP-Link EAP225 in a warehouse without any hiccups so far. Most importantly they don't randomly die or lose the controller pairing like some low end Ubiquiti units tried in the past. The only quirk is that on Windows Server you have to configure the service manually, but it's no big deal. [0]

I'll look up the names and articles you've mentioned, thanks for that. I've seen some information about the effects of porn consumption, but it's difficult to relate the results of a study on typical porn consumers with the effects of media depicting child sexual abuse on those with a mental illness compelling them to sexualize children. That's an enormous sticking point that also differentiates the typical consumer of fiction with the consumer of depictions of child sexual abuse. We can't expect someone consuming specific types of media pathologically to react the same way as a typical person consuming media that does not aggravate an illness of theirs.

Ask HN: What data store would you use for an instant messaging application?
As a side project, I have an idea for a particular instant messaging mobile app.

Each message will be tightly coupled to a specific geographic location, fwiw. And messages will be ephemeral, they'll be deleted completely from the server after a few hours (or maybe a week).

So I'm thinking that there'll be a backend API that the mobile apps will use to send/receive messages.

My question is: what kind of technology would you use for such an application? Where would you store those messages?
That's amazing. Even better than the Dubstep Nokia tone.
Look at this guy, only a ton in high school. If only we could all be so luck...
>Yes, and if you are somewhat tech savvy OR "grew up" on the internet (say 40 and younger) you understand this.

I really don't think that's the case. The issue isn't knowing how to use a computer or not, it's being able to vet sources. That is taught at few schools and actually applied by fewer still.

Digital natives are even more susceptible to internet propaganda imo, since listening to obscure internet voices (with no real credibility beyond the size of their flock of sheep of subscribers/followers) has become so normalized over listening to actual domain experts. A lot of people like to get their current events from some talking head on youtube who selectively explains these topics in a biased way, rather than reading primary sources and developing their own interpretation themselves.It's not geriatrics and baby boomers buying this dropshipped junk from all these influencers, after all. Plus look at all the millenials who stormed the capitol a few months ago based on some conspiracy theory. No, being able to use gmail and microsoft office do not make you tech savvy or immune to propaganda.

I'm NAT'd, though with an external IP, so the IP my router sees is not the same as what the world sees--while my ISP did provide me this information in an email, it's much faster for me to ask Google or whatnot than to dig the email up.
It depends. How do you manage said AP? The leaked credentials issue here is specifically in SSO Cloud authentication to Controllers, which are used to administer all the actual hardware devices. However, the devices themselves aren't affected. So depending on how, or for that matter if, you manage them you may be unaffected as well which has always been a major touted advantage of UniFi and has indeed proved true right with this very incident.

Your post seems to imply you have just that AP and that's it? If you set it up initially (putting the controller on one of your own computers temporarily maybe), and then just left it standalone from there on out you're fine. There is no need to have an active Controller for all the hardware to work as configured, a Controller is just needed to change configuration, collect real time statistics/send notifications, and do necessarily active things like run a guest portal.

If you are running a Controller, but you're doing entirely standalone on your own hardware (or your own cloud service for that matter), and haven't enabled Ubiquiti SSO cloud access, you're unaffected. That's how I've always run since I don't trust 3rd party cloud stuff for something like this, ever.

It's """only""" an issue for their cloud service, and apparently their "Cloud Keys" and "Dream Machines" as well since they pushed it on people some recent firmware. Which granted covers a lot of surface area, and Ubiquiti has pushed very, very hard (see advertising outrage from just a few days ago). But it's thankfully still not everything.
On these platforms, minting a work is the same effect as posting an image to your deviantart, for example. The only difference is that the table that links user id to content id is a blockchain.
Decent IPC increase, but really good liquid cooling is required in order to get it. Prebuilts like Dell will likely use tiny coolers that will limit the performance of these parts.

Apple's M1 illustrates how far behind Intel is in everything, and AMD's upcoming Zen 4 is supposed to have a staggering 20% increase in IPC.

It is a good thing Intel has massive market inertia, because the next few years are going to be rough for them from a tech standpoint.

Not really. The vulnerabilities of using a vendor hosted cloud controller have been demonstrate, but having one yourself next to your networking decides is just as secure as it always was.

It's nice of you to accept Apple's calling it "radio" but UWB is radar technology. Newer iPhones have radar built into them to make their location tracking more precise. Most people don't understand (or can't understand) the details, which is why the semantic load of calling UWB "radar" instead of "radio" is important for conveying its intended purpose.
I agree with you completely—and I'm not saying that as just an obsequious response but because I know the issues you've raised are so important. Yet nowadays they are so often overlooked or paid scant attention thereto—which I'd suggest is even more so than in the past because training now has to cover a much more diverse range of subject matter than in the past. Leaving specialist courses aside, today, general courses on electrical engineering and electronics pay less emphasis on low noise/low-level analogue techniques and more on digital technology. For instance, I recall a good but inexperienced engineer coming to me with a board he'd constructed that was full of digital ICs but which he couldn't get working. A quick glance and I saw that he had left off all the bypass capacitors across the ICs' power rails—not by accident but by not realising their importance.

There's not the time or space to address your points in sufficient detail except to say that years ago, I used to work for a well-known electronics company that made radio and television broadcasting equipment and I was employed in its prototype laboratory. My work covered a diverse range of technologies including audio, VHF and microwave. All those points you've mentioned were day-to-day bread and butter and we had to address them in detail as the equipment had to pass/comply with broadcast standards. For example, we had to design audio equipment so that the 600Ω balanced lines joining them had to reach a specified common mode rejection ratio, this involved multiple techniques, shielding, good earthing, using 'technical' earths and testing EMR leakage to and from interconnecting cables (for instance, Belden Beldfoil cables)—all of which were especially important in very low distortion designs that didn't rely on transformers to achieve balanced inputs and outputs.

Similar issues were relevant in RF and microwave equipment, minimizing stray capacitance and inductance in chassis/component layouts, etc. Rather than give you an example I refer you to one of my treasured books on the subject, Microwave Receivers edited by S.N. Van Voorhis, 1948, specifically pages 261-266, Section 10.6 (although other nearby sections are also relevant). This book is ancient but the theory and rules still apply. It's part (vol 23) of the 28 volume Rad Lab† series produced after WWII and this set is still one of the greatest tomes ever written on any subject in engineering. It can be downloaded from the Internet Archive from here: https://archive.org/details/MITRadiationLaboratorySeries23Mi.... (Incidentally, I still have my softcover Dover edition from when I was a teenager, it's not the kind of book you throw out.)
