You have valid concerns but no need to hope for their failure.

Tech people are the minority. The market IS moving towards cloud. It's happened, it's happening, it will keep happening. Stadia may have failed now, but it IS conceptually the future of gaming. It's like you're arguing for blockbuster in a netflix world. We cannot stop this from happening, no matter how many choirs we preach to. All we can do is find ways to make this happen better.

I think it's more constructive (and technically difficult) to accept that the market is heading to full cloud and we as tech people need to find better ways of making this vibe with good privacy practices.

Personally, I would not use anything like this without knowing a lot more about their security. Even then, maybe we're still a few years out from a security perspective before I would feel comfortable storing my passwords and browsing data with a 3rd party server AND pay for it (wild). But, I could see myself doing this if my privacy was ensured.

I hope these guys really focus on innovating in that aspect, and then I hope they succeed big.
It's wild how people with different assumptions about the world can read the same thing, focus on the same part, and walk away with opposite conclusions.

I read that as them trying to control for other factors and get a clean signal to demonstrate their hypothesis as a testable, verifiable, and falsifiable phenomenon.

But some people apparently think that the process of isolation IS the confounding factor that produces the results.

This makes things difficult. If they don't do this people will accuse them of not controlling for everything but when they do do it then they say "well yeah, you're controlling for everything else, of course you'll get that".

The point from my reading was all things being equal except for the subtle verbal patterns of class, the verbal patterns are a real influencing factor in outcome

Hi HN community! I'd love to show you vcluster - a virtual cluster technology for Kubernetes.

vcluster allows you to create k3s-based virtual k8s clusters that run on top of full-blown Kubernetes clusters. vclusters are lightweight and run inside a single namespace of the underlying host cluster.

********

Why vclusters?

1 - Because vclusters save a ton of cost: You can share resources from the underlying host cluster, e.g. use shared ingress controller. Instead of creating x new clusters, create x vclusters that run on one single cluster.

2 - Because vclusters are a better solution for soft multi-tenancy than using namespaces: Allows your tenants to get cluster-wide access (inside the virtual cluster obviously), so they can test RBAC or install and manage their own CRDs etc.

3 - Because vclusters add another layer of isolation in clusters. Unlike namespaces, vclusters have their own control plane (mainly API server and data store), so that all higher level resources only live in the vcluster (Deployment, StatefulSets, CRDs, ...) and they never reach the underlying cluster, which means the underlying cluster can be really "dumb" and easier to manage

4 - Because vclusters turn clusters into cattle: Spin them up in seconds, destroy them by deleting the underlying namespaces where the vcluster runs in and you get a clean state again. vclusters are super lightweight and low-overhead.

********

How to get started?

No server-side install required. You can deploy a vcluster with kubectl apply or helm install but the easiest option is to download the CLI binary and run:

```

vcluster create vcluster-1 -n host-namespace-1

vcluster connect vcluster-1 -n host-namespace-1

export KUBECONFIG=./kubeconfig.yaml

kubectl ... # Have fun using your vcluster

```

********

What do you think?

What do you think about the idea of virtual Kubernetes clusters? Could this be useful for you? What would need to be added to make it work for your use cases?

Any feedback is highly appreciated.
The implicit part of the statement was "and make a decent living from it".
Everything's relative, sure, but pay close attention to your sense of well being the next time you're in a car with an air freshener, or someone sprays febreeze in a room. You'll probably start to feel uneasy and/or have dulled senses very quickly. Do that often enough, and the abuse adds up.

From another comment thread

> It's not just about life expectancy, but life quality. I think we'll one day be surprised just how many mental health and chronic illnesses are significantly attributable to air pollution, in all its forms.
This comment touches on a lot of topics that I’m interested in learning more about but don’t have the vocabulary to google or find resources about. Any chance you could point me at a somewhere that I could read about these patterns in more depth? Handling expensive computations and preventing re-computation on the backend is something I don’t know how to solve effectively because there are several different approaches I can think of (in memory cache on the backend, persist the result and return it the next time it’s asked for, cache the response in front of the service, etc)

Firm agree on mixing work/personal contexts.

However, in practice, using "Sign in with Google" by default dramatically increases resilience to most failure modes for almost everyone without a sophisticated threat model.

> To save what? An additional password?

The average person does not manage their passwords in a sophisticated way; if someone is signing up for many different services, they are probably using the same password everywhere, or some simple enumeration scheme. Then, when some random forum or web service gets compromised (as they inevitably are), their password to everything is compromised - including Google! On the opposite end of the spectrum, if Google is the only service with a password, and everything else is driven by Google-owned SSO, that person is essentially immune to compromise; whatever I think about the company, I do believe in Google's security team to keep passwords safe and block dictionary attacks more than any other service on the internet.

And while we can evangelize setting up password managers and using strong random passwords everywhere, the truth of the matter is that many people simply cannot accomplish this. "Sign in with {Google, Facebook, Microsoft}" gets them 95% of the benefit at much higher reliability.
I disagree. There's no sense of community in India. It's every person for himself and most people don't care about contributing to the community.

You're getting downvoted, but I upvoted you. That sounds pretty shitty, I'm sorry.

What you're describing is not acceptable, and frankly reeks of classism. Lack of education for large parts of the US is not a matter of choice, but a complete lack of access.

Eugenics was super popular amongst the liberal elite in the first half of the 20th century until Hitler took things too far.

I'm not going to pretend that I haven't done something similar amongst like-minded left-leaning friends. The conservative response to the pandemic has been absolutely horrifying. The anti-intellectualism and science denialism cannot be excused by the fear of livelihood loss. There are plenty of liberal small business owners too, and they're wearing masks.

But that's shooting the shit with close friends in a private space. This should not happen in a professional setting.

And, in the context of what we're talking about on this thread, it cannot be justified as discussion of politics. This is bullying behaviour.
It seems like a risk with Google too. It's common to be logged into Google/Gmail with multiple Google accounts. Even with separate Google accounts, Google can tell they are related and could potentially ban them too.

I'm pretty sure Samsung is leader in sales, maybe second when it comes to profit though.

In any case, issue with Tesla is that's it's priced to just not be the leader, but the whole car market and then some.

If there are already trends that other car manufacturers area outselling Tesla, clearly trajectory is not towards even market lead.
I'm not aware of any major business that publicizes this kind of information. Try going to your bank and ask them for details on how their anti-fraud system works.

The problem here is this imperfect click fraud ban can ricochet into your app getting banned too.
The fact that a web email client (gmail) can turn the fan on when it’s mostly text and runs in a VM written and published by the same company that wrote the email client just makes my head spin.

And the solution to this is to put the browser in the cloud? So what’s the desktop browser on your new $3,000 mbp now, like... a demo environment?

It boggles my mind that we’re not demanding the web bloat stop. Maybe figma just doesn’t really work as a web app! If I have to run my browser in a datacenter, I think it’s fair to say it doesn’t.

As a web dev I’m just embarrassed. How are we not saying “this is too much, stop making web apps that crash my computer it’s not worth it.”

That email popup is obnoxious UI. I really might never visit their site ever again. It's that bad.
Generally good thinking, but few "real world" notes

A) you first need to run the service to get any customers

B) this might take long

C) you maybe don't want / can't get VC money at this stage

D) you maybe are not the most advanced dev who can properly utilitize s3 from I/O perspective, getting you to higher costs than possible

E) there might be a time period between introducing the service and getting traction which yields enough feedback, so you can start adding more business features

F) when you are burning your own money, you are more senstive to the cost side - which is not ultimately wrong

Just my 2c
I don't mean a situation like that. What if you just disagree about the best way to achieve the ideal ecosystem? Surely not every customer has the same opinion.

Like for example, consider their restrictions on third-party browser engines, JITs, etc. Are you happy about all those choices too?

When the average subscription to just about any online service is 3.3 months, the 15% after 12 months is simply PR. Nothing more. Apple crunched their numbers and knows exactly what they are doing. What's more amazing is that everyone, including you, has fallen for it.
Status determined on origination. A dull life. Yet I am epic.
> Don’t even get me started on how entrenched “Sign In With [Company]” schemes have gained traction. Why deliberately have such a single point of failure? To save what? An additional password?

Well, no, it doesn't save a password. People use the same password across all their independent accounts.

Sign in with [Company] doesn't improve that, obviously, but there is the idea out there that [Company] might be doing a better job not leaking your password than the couple dozen sites that know it under the other system.

In other words, Sign in with [Company] is a way for a website to protect itself (from touching your password) at your expense. It's not there for you.
But that doesn't really have anything to do with the browser, which is what the op was asking.
That's pretty interesting. I wonder how an increase in domestic spending balances against all the printing we did during COVID. It decreases demand for foreign currencies (for foreign purchases) which would strengthen the dollar relatively. I guess it really depends on the magnitude of the trend on how much it will offset the increase in supply.
Any recommendations for an air purifiers and some devices to measure the air quality?
> I know I made some simplifications

At least one thing you say, to me, is not just a simplification, it's wrong. You are clearly working in an inertial frame throughout the post (which I agree with since it is simpler); but in an inertial frame, what you call "tangential velocity" (it would usually be called "centrifugal force"; you incorrectly use the term "centripetal force" at one point) is not a force. A spacecraft in a free-fall orbit (i.e., rocket engine not firing) has only one force acting on it: gravity. That's why it moves in an ellipse and not a straight line.

There’s a long-standing company rule that anyone named Bob has to eat lunch sitting on the floor. Some people named Bob started to complain, but some other employees liked the rule. It was causing a stir, so I as CEO decided to prohibit any discussion on the matter.

Then the Bobs told me that the discussion gag was unfair. I told them that it is, by definition, logically neutral, since no ideology is getting pushed — it applies across the board, to both them and the “pro Bob floor” group.

The Bobs are still eating lunch on the floor, but I don’t hear anyone complaining anymore, so I think we landed in the right place.

QED?
The stupidest thing about that whole phenomenon was that after the first person panic-bought a heaped trolley full, what everyone else was worried about wasn't a genuine shortage but was just other peoples' panic buying.
things like this always make me shake my head and his "statement" on twitter doesn't do anything to help his case, twitter mob be damned. so generic (imo).

he was in a high position of power and used that to set up situations that were dubious at best. if he even did like 25% of what was claimed he deserves whatever is coming. it's like the boss having questionable relationships w/ his employees then turning around and hiding behind the "it was consensual so that's that!" without understanding the fucking power dynamics.
I didn't say archeologists were dismissing the connection. I said the Chokia Park employees were, and they did so in a very scripted manner and refused to even discuss it.

As you said, both sides can follow the science and make different value judgements. Unfortunately that rarely seems to be the case.

For example, the pandemic, it seems most people agreed that shutdowns and masks were acceptable to save that many lives. However, politicians did not make the trade-off argument. They generally just challenged the science completely. First, that the pandemic was even real, then that it was deadly, then that shutdowns helped and that masks helped at all.

So yes, arguments of values can be made, but it seems rare that these frank discussions actually happen in politics. At least not in public.
The mass of the spacecraft, and how it changes as fuel is burned, can of course be ignored when computing gravitational forces, yes. But it can't be ignored when computing things like how much fuel is required for a particular burn to achieve a desired delta-v.
> But how is this specific to "credit" cards? Don't debit cards get the same protection?

No, they don't. It gets confusing because many banks do offer protections against debit card fraud, but that's entirely up to the bank and its terms of service (which of course they can change at any moment).

The credit card protections are by regulation, so you can count on them regardless of bank and the banks can't change them.

A debit card is a straight siphon into your bank account. The bank may or may not help in the case of fraud, depending how much they feel like retaining your business.

A credit card is a strong firewall between expenses and your money, both in implementation (it's a separate account after all) and regulation (you're not liable for fraudulent use).

So, in the USA always use credit cards. Avoid debit cards. I try to not have any debit cards (it can't be exploited if it doesn't exist) although lately it has been more difficult since banks insist on sending me debit cards I don't want. So I store them away, will never carry or use them.

The wrinkle in your question which sibling comments miss is this: it's difficult to reason about how a photon 'experiences' things under any circumstances.

No, not because they don't have sensory organs or the like, we can wave that aside, but because time doesn't pass for objects moving at the speed of light. It's so compressed that everything is instantaneous: a photon from another galaxy arrives in our eyeballs at the same moment it is emitted.

So you're asking a question about the duration experience around a black hole, of a particle which can't have duration experience.

It depends how hot you run them. If you idle them 99% of the time, then yeah, warranty is main issue. But if you burn your cpu all day, power usage becomes significant expense.

I guess you can get SB/HW from cloud vendors for few reasons:

1. Intel server CPU are usually generation behind customer ones, so they are little younger than one may think

2. They are used for workloads that require little of CPU power overall

3. They may have important customers that certified their software for those specific CPU, so they need to keep them in stock

I don’t work at Google/Amazon, so I’m just speculating.
