Others here have already brought up the wear and tear running can have on the human body, but there's a psychological factor as well.

For many, walking is more enjoyable than most other exercise. Some people can do strenuous, repetitive exercise and not get bored or feel miserable, which is why a certain number of people can manage to go to the gym regularly and stare at a wall for an hour as they run on a treadmill and lift dumbbells. Others give up more easily in reaction to stimuli that isn't highly dopamine driven for them. For those people, if they can instead keep up walking on a regular basis, it makes more sense they stick with that rather than effectively punish themselves by running.

Doesn't that mean that you're simply following the market (with some lag) and buying when prices go up?
It’s a bit confusing and wildly misleading if that’s the case. The article uses the word “regenerate” quite freely, but the scientific language is “agenesis” I.e. it wasn’t there in the first place. And of course the title “lost teeth” facepalm.
> What does it cost to be reminded that you can buy more?

At a certain point in my life, one where I sought fewer material comforts (and had less media exposure), I used to claim that advertising won't convince me to buy anything but it may convince me not to. There is a very fine line between persuasion and overstepping ethical boundaries.

Well I've had it happen with toilet seats. In 40 years on this planet I've only ever needed to purchase that one. I'd imagine if I needed to get more than one that I would get them all at the same time.
Tangentially related, for the first time ever I saw Gmail losing its anti-spam game. We were doing some home-modeling and we went to Home Depot sometime early this month. And... some entity somehow discovered this. And then all of a sudden I started getting spam emails related to Home Depot's/home rebuilding. The spam emails successfully pass through gmail's filter because they seem to emanate from aol,gmail,hotmail,yahoo etc. email addresses.

Here's an image: https://i.imgur.com/KqIN6oB.png

This Hecatoncheires entity is getting ever-larger. It knows a lot. It knows me well. I have seen evidence that it knows about the medication I take, the insecurities I have, my half-baked aspirations and plans.

Said to see old project folding. Many people still use older hardware.
I must say it's a valid point. After all it's a hobby project, having fun is the first priority :D

However, one could also say "Well, it's a hobby project, so I'll just slap this framework on to save my time..." or "What? I have to manually deploy this hobby thing every time I made a change? I'll just put it on a CI and let Webpack pack the thing for me"...

My method is this: I will start the project with all new tech/frameworks/lib/"display: grid", then I publish the project, if it turns out to be a success, I'll maintain it (including upgrade the framework, bug fix etc); if it's not, I'll just put it aside and start another one. This way, I can touch/learn many new stuffs that might later benefit me in my day job without any risk.

So, I believe it eventually boils down to personal preference (based on objective information on hand, of course) :D
A thing to keep in mind in these situations is that making the system a bit more type safe may be more personally satisfying for the engineers. They may see that as a more worthy goal than fixing `n` additional bugs.

Same thing with premature, or otherwise unnecessary, optimization. Sometimes it's just fun!
> We forced the world after 9/11 to block anonymous Internet. You cannot get Internet anywhere without ID. You used to be able to get prepaid SIM cards in most countries till we put pressure on them.

In the UK at least a pre paid sim is 99p if you buy it from a shop, you can pay with cash and there's no registration procedure. I doubt we're the only country in the world that works like this.
That would be great empirical data to see. However from anecdotal data across almost two decades, is extremely obvious to my case study that naming is second only to application architecture in its impact on ease or difficulty and risk of updating the code base in the future.
Author here. I just tried disabling debug info (debug = 0) for the first time and it looks like my recompile times shave off another 500-1000ms which isn't bad!
I agree that they took a while to commercialize, but they were new technologies. Smartphones, streaming, etc. are not new technologies. They are extensions of old ones, or in the case of smartphones, a systems integration problem.

I think we're talking past each other a bit. I think there are technological leaps and sociological leaps. Most new tech is a sociological leap: it changes society but it does not make use of anything radically new.

I think the only real technological leaps in the past twenty years have been maybe crypto, and some things happening in biology. Notably absent is renewable energy, which was largely developed many decades ago but is now being commercialized due to process improvements.

Well, for a start, there have been loads of civilisations that didn't have wheels. Don't make the mistake of thinking our current civilisation is the only one that can exist because it exists right now. Those other civilisations existed in their time too.

There is a big difference between necessary and inevitable. Crime is inevitable. Is it necessary? I believe a civilisation could exist if the people decided to outlaw money. There are so many other ways to allocate resources: bartering, contracts (which get you asynchronicity), centralised allocation (which can be at a national level, e.g. communism or a local level, like a feudal system), gift economies. All of these have existed and worked for a time.

I’d say it’s not weird or religious - it’s a predictable outcome of the incentive structure of then currency.

A key criteria for a better alternative is that it doesn’t incentivize hagiographic thinking.
Honestly, it's a little of both. There are loud groups of people online that will be fine with this kind of logic. In fact there is a good number of those individuals right here on HN. Essentially I outlined what their talking points will be.

At the same time, I'm tired of arguing for rights. I'm partially willing to let people burn the system to the ground to prove how right they are with removing rights from those they think to be undesirable.

3D printed Pomodoro clock for time management
Compile times in rustc have been steadily improving with time, as shown here - https://arewefastyet.rs.

Every release doesn't make every workload faster, but over a long time horizon, the effect is clear. Rust 1.34 was released in April 2019 and since then many crates have become 33-50% faster to compile, depending on the hardware and the compiler mode (clean/incremental, check/debug/release).

Interestingly, the speedup mentioned in OP won't show up in these charts because that's a change on macOS and these benchmarks were recorded on Linux.

What is expected to be a gamechanger is the release of cranelift in 2021 or 2022. It's an alternate debug backend that promises much faster debug builds.
>"As an adult, I of course realized the Soviet Union was only interesting because I wasn't getting a full picture"

If you get "full picture" it is still interesting. They've done some horrible things, some meh thing and some absolutely amazing and beautiful things. Proportions of those of course depends on time period.

It is then up to the individual to realize what they see, how and what they can have from looking at it. If one wants to find crap they'll find it everywhere and the opposite.

>Worst case I get convicted in absentia and the next time I set foot on US soil I get in trouble at customs.

FWIW, you cannot simply be convicted in absentia in the USA. It would violate the 5th, 6th, and 14th Amendments and the due process rights they secure for a defendant. SCOTUS covered this in Hopt v. Utah in the late 1800s and there has been no revision since. If someone engages in voluntary behavior after a trial begins the trial may still proceed, like if they're there for the start of the trial and then voluntarily flee, or they're disruptive, given warning they could be ejected, and continues to be disruptive. But the trial can't start without them.

Granted here we're not talking criminal law at all. And most DMCA takedown claims are just mass sent on the cheap with zero intent to followup.
Could you link any research supporting your claim? I mean, the article refers to a statistics, which hints that there is no causal link between a race and violence. I didn't dig into statistics, how it was calculated, which data it uses, where that data came from... So I'm reluctant to take that claims as granted, but they seem to me as the author tried at least.

I'd be happy to learn about a research coming to the opposite conclusions.
It would be impossible for you to say this (circular) sentence and call something a “problem” if you didn’t think that there was some basis of right/wrong, which contradicts your top-level comment.

That’s a super-bad-faith argument. Did you personally write the legal contract for the last place you were a tenant of without any involvement from a lawyer? No. Your landlord might have hired a lawyer. Mine used an off-the-shelf legal contract.

For common situations like rent, open-source contracts are inevitable. This will give people who could never afford lawyers (think 3rd world) access to much of the results middle class Americans take for granted.

You don't notice all the times you talk about something and you don't see relevant advertisements. After talking about it you're primed to notice it more. Additionally this isn't isolated - you could be talking about it indirectly due to advertisments being out there (e.g. someone else sees an ad, posts / talks / youtubes about it, you talk about it and then see the ad).

Ads are getting more targeted and getting closer to the kind of things you would talk about based on your interests and data that networks have collected about you, but we are still pretty far from continuous ad surveillance.
It's possible - but this was in relation to a discussion she started, and why show those ads to me in the first place ?

The obvious passion for well-written, physical books made me smile. A nice read for a Sunday morning, so thanks.

Here in the US, we’re obsessed with copyright and stamping away physical books; and replacing them with more ephemeral digital “copies” (a huge f** you to Amazon).

As a side note: I remember reading that the Soviet Union and India enjoyed a good relationship back in the 1970s and onward. I always wondered what sort of impact it had on India.

Another tangent: Some of these books look amazing for someone trying to revive his passion for math, decades after college.
I mean the problem with China is you have no real control of your company and no real freedom (even if large market and a lot of money). See Jack Ma. Even if you make a huge company worth billions you are still owned by the Communist Party of China.

Then another option is to implement all 3. This gives you what you want most of the time, but also supports all customer use cases. The downside is the customer now needs a flow chart to understand how their DNS is resolving.

To start with, first implement (1).

Assuming .internal points to internal-only IPs, and you are reusing internal IPs (each customer VPC can have arbitrary private IPs), you can have ni-172-16-0-5.customer.internal.somedomain.io return A record to "172.16.0.5". (You don't have to add .customer, but you might gain some useful analytics)

A customer needing a hostname for 172.16.0.5 can resolve ni-172-16-0-5.customer.internal.somedomain.io. By default it'll use whatever DNS server/resolver they have configured (or yours with option (2)). The request goes through public DNS until it gets back to somedomain.io (your domain) and you return the result.

Upside: You're not hosting all the customer's DNS resolution. Downside: The customer will see a longer round-trip for .internal requests, and their VPC needs a NAT gateway.

Next implement (3).

Intercept all DNS traffic that matches ".internal.somedomain.io" and spoof responses. Write this tight enough that it will only return responses when you are sure they won't break clients, and pass the rest to the public DNS using option (1), which prevents from having to mess with TCP connections (they'll be slower though the public internet, but it's TCP, what did they expect?).

Upside: You are only returning results for .internal, everything else can use somebody else's DNS, and the customer doesn't need a NAT gateway. Downside: Requires custom engineering which is subtly complex, and is hidden magic the customer doesn't expect, so could cause troubleshooting headaches.

Next, implement (2) as an opt-in.

Have your VPC DHCP server return your internal dns server. You resolve .internal locally and handle the rest as a big hulking resolver. You can also slip this DNS server into their containers, but as a customer I'd want a giant red flag in the docs that advertises this.

Upside: Works in every customer scenario. Bonus: now you can return reverse records. Downside: Now you really are hosting the customer's DNS resolver.
Why do you require a central authority? What you require is this:

1. An incentive to evict someone. Money. Someone needs to get paid to actually do the eviction because they are taking on some risk - physical in this case. It doesn't matter how they get paid. A smart contract can do that.

2. "Social/Legal consensus" that performing the physical eviction is the right thing to do. The person performing the eviction should not get punished for it. If the state and breach of contract is transparent on the blockchain this consensus could be achieved.

3. A way to confirm the eviction to pay the evictor.

It doesn’t matter if credit card providers are paid 0%, 3% or 5% on each transaction. If the law (and/or customer blowback) allows a company to sell customer information, management will eventually give in to selling it because it’s a revenue source. When called on this they will give you a story about how it “lowers customer costs” and some people will accept this as a valid excuse, but none of this changes the reality.

PS: this is really a response to grandparent poster, not parent.
Sure, following some guidelines and standards is helpful. But never having to think about naming is almost like never having to think about logic. What you name things dictates how future developers think about them. Just this week we had a feature that could belong in an existing module or it could require a new module all depending on how we define the domain and therefore the name of the existing module.
The "stochastic probability stuff" falls apart once ISPs discover they can profitably influence the consensus outcome by messing with packet arrival times between nodes.

Societal Donatism, Bastian Rieck
https://bastian.rieck.me/blog/posts/2021/donatism/

Donatists were a group of Christians in the fourth century. Their core tenet was that priests need to be ‘faultless’ in order for their prayers and for their sacraments to be valid.

Societal Donatism & Its Implications

I believe that some recent trends can be seen as a form of Societal Donatism. By this, I refer to the unspoken requirement that any creator in our society needs to be (almost) faultless or (almost) morally impeccable in order for their work to be allowed to persist in the public sphere. If, retroactively, it transpires that a person committed a crime or behaved in an untoward manner, their work is immediately called into question. Are we still allowed to enjoy their music, their films, their lecture materials? Should their awards—if any—be revoked?

Network level fingerprinting has nothing to do with IPs. It works by using protocol artifacts.

But VPN do migrate the problem.
I'm curious, has anyone done any back of the envelope calculations on this?

Let's say the US Government started a side-chain starting at the very first transaction and has kept it within it's own firewall, and has been mining for years at optimal difficulty levels so that they have to put in the least amount of work. Which now that I think about it, would just be difficulty 1, and the only reason to go above difficulty 1 would be because you started after the original chain, and you would only up the difficulty right before you were going to release it to the public.

Could they at any moment open it up and everyone would move over to their chain since it is the longest, where suddenly the US Gov owns every single coin and there's never been a single transaction?
Tangentially related but I know of a surgery where a man lost his nose, they grew a secondary nose somewhere else on his face (so it already has blood vessels going towards it vs transplanting it from in vitro), and then they removed the damaged nose and replaced it with the new nose.

If this moves beyond animal tests, the potential is there even for people who got all their teeth.

This is a spectrum similar to taking out loans and performing liquidations. If the person you are giving a loan too is sketchy you may refuse the loan or charge higher interest.

The same principle applies here as physical eviction is fundamentally about risk. There is an "auction" on the eviction and potential evictors can decide how risky the eviction is. More risky evictions will require a larger payout.
