for the last 3 years I've been reading of these breakthroughs. They are not just 2x Lithium Ion, they are usually 10X!! or in this case 60X creating an "EV Range Breakthrough" to quote the title exactly.

You have a 60x EV Range breakthrough - and you are still a small company not snapped up by some monster. How in the HELL is that possible. 60x range is 20,000 miles for the tesla Model 3. How is this amount of energy even carried safely?

I've become jaded to these announcements. Glad someone is coming out with a checkbox for them.

Note that for EV's COST has become a key driver - 315 miles range is "good enough" if you get to leave your house every morning with a full charge. Hopefully the 60X improvement creating this "range breakthrough" translates into a 60x cost reduction given you can use a much smaller battery for the 315 miles.
I've synthesized an open-source implementation of the I-Ching, an ancient Chinese Divination ritual, which many call a predictive system for reality. You can read a bit more information on the blog post introducing it: https://paretolearn.substack.com/p/the-yi-jing-meets-open-so...
I welcome pull-requests, and collaboration on this project moving forward. You can learn more about the basics of the I-Ching from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Ching
For those with experience migrating (preferably your whole family) from a 3rd world country to 1st world, please help answer:

1. How old is too old? (E.g. "Don't bother migrating if you're 30+, you're too old for the job.")

2. How "recognized" is your experience and your previous role (e.g. can a Senior IT Manager in Myanmar be a Senior IT Manager in UK?)

3. How's the salary adjustment going to be? "Current salary +30%" won't cut it as the living costs will be very different.
When I was doing anti-cheat stuff for a game company I was able to leverage their attempts at avoiding being hacked by a third party who kept stealing their cheats and reselling them. Even criminals have criminals trying to steal from them.
> but I hope people aren't learning Rust as a status symbol.

Of course they do. Lots of learning today seems to be based around "what looks nice to put on my resume?" which is effectively a status symbol, rather than choosing tooling that is actually the best for the job.

Same applies for a ton of stuff as well, not just Rust.
I can’t decide if it’s worse to imply that Russians can’t learn English or to think that the anglosphere only exists in North America.
Some of this has to be tied to the evolution of ads in SERPs. They've gone from being on the right rail in a different format and different colors to being in the results, with with a perpetually lightning yellow background so you know it's sponsored. Currently, I the only meaningful difference is it says "Ad."

I used to work for a comparison shopping engine. The traffic was a mix of paid and organic search. We thought about using paid traffic to test page titles and descriptions for organic pages because it's not like users could tell the difference.
How to define Open Graph / Twitter image alt text (and why it might not matter)
yes, and while it might have helped at the margin, it's frankly naive to think that we'd have largely avoided this pandemic had we just had better indoor air circulation. it's an analytical solution (so irresistable to engineers, mathematicians, and physicists!) to a complicated and stochastic set of behavioral patterns, that people want to be close to each other indoors for highly complex and very substantive social reasons (not to mention the intricate contraints the virus faces to transmit). transmission happens closely face-to-face indoors, and in light of that, folks aren't going to want to sit together for very long in an airstream strong enough and comprehensive enough to deflect and capture potential virus particles everywhere just to chat and enjoy each other's company for a bit.

while most mask usage in practice has been completely useless (like double-masking or wearing them outside), the one place where masks make real sense is between two faces close to each other emitting exhaust indoors. if we had just relentlessly kept to this one crucial scenario in our mask messaging (and simply distancing everywhere else inside), we'd have had much better and more targeted mitigation, with dramatically fewer downsides to our social and economic lives. and to boot, that avoids trying to make extraordinarily costly upgrades to every hvac system in the world for marginal benefit.
Why are you being down voted? Every major war and international crisis in my lifetime has been directly or indirectly related to US prioritizing oil above pretty much all else. From the Iranian revolution to the Gulf wars, to the terrorism our involvement in the middle east has caused, to the climate crisis and our lack of efforts to reduce consumption.

Whoever called this an insult isn't paying attention.

I think you're spot-on here - the ransom is seen as a "cost of doing business", and until recently security was seen as "a problem that happens to other people".

Sadly my experience is that organisations like this will take their $5m ransom (or other remediation cost), assume it's a one-off, then divide it by their number of ransom-free years, and proclaim it was better value for money than hiring 2 or 3 senior security gurus on $300k /yr with 60 vacation days, and letting them bring in a team to deliver meaningful security.

Beyond taking security out of the hands of bean-counters though, I'm not sure how you address this. Pursuing organisations that pay ransoms and prosecuting senior CEO/CFO-type executives for conspiracy to commit money laundering (and pushing for criminal convictions) could discourage paying ransoms. If it's left to businesses as something they can write down as a "cost", I don't see it getting better - there has to be a risk to the liberty of the CEO/CFO before they'll take security seriously in my experience. 90 days in federal prison would certainly sharpen their focus in future.
Quoting the second tweet:

>That's a choice Paul made. He CHOSE to stand behind a guy who signed his name to an entire book that dehumanizes his colleagues as a means of posturing.

>He didn't need to do it. So why?

>Paul wants impunity for guys like him, not shared dignity and decency for those in his field

Paul could have easily done nothing, so it's worth thinking about why he chose to take action. I'm not saying the author is necessarily correct, but it's absolutely worth thinking about. This mode of analysis is useful in similar situations, always think about who benefits from a choice or endorsement.
Look for software lead gen agencies.
Ok that makes sense - I think the best solution in that case is to try to think of a word that you may have used around that time and search for that - then if you get the right year you can at least scroll from there.

Even so, I think WhatsApp's scroll is pretty fast especially compared to Teams. Teams only seems to be able to store 1 page worth of content in memory at any one time which makes scrolling for anything even an hour back excruciating.
The odds of me finding an unlinked file on a random server is lower than me ending up physically being there to open your drawer.

But even then, the information leaks without the document itself. "I heard he is going to resign" is all it takes.
What was his work title in Apple? Was he in the management or in some high visibility position?

I don't see any problem Apple firing management for whatever reason. Apple is build around the brand. In brand companies you need to project an image.

For low level positions, most HR actions should be done bases on actions people take in the work. Even misogynistic pieces of shit should be able to work as a part of a team if they control themselves in the workplace. People are defective in multiple ways.

In the last team I worked we would have fired 2/3 of the Indian programmers based on their private beliefs of gender relations using the same criteria. They never bought it into workplace and we never asked. It just came out in private discussions.
Apple sells privacy, so there's a market for it and it's expanding into the public conscience. Apple isn't a bank though, and they aren't beholden to the same paternalistic/sinister interests. So what's really needed is reducing the size and scope of what paternalistic/sinister interests manage. Design principles such as separation of concerns come to mind.

Tauri distributables are still 10 times smaller than Ultralight. Regarding performance will have to do some reviews.
Wat? How is the recent trajectory disastrous?
This article is intriguing to me, because I live near an H Mart... had never been in it, and had no idea what it was. I assumed it was just like... a generic off brand grocery store.

I learned something new today!
The more appropriate analogy would be murder vs forcible sterilization or otherwise preventing/outlawing someone else from having children. No one is asking Omicron to move to Mars. Just asking him (and others) not to prevent others from doing so using threat of law.
You can get accepted to a music degree for some majors such as composition without prior proven knowledge but you'd need to do a summer class or similar to learn music theory. It would be rough if you think to learn in a couple of months what most musicians take years, but a friend of mine managed and 2 decades later he's head of the school.
Masks have not in any way contributed to the problems you cite. Suicide numbers are nowhere close to the total number of Covid dead. There has been economic hardship caused by social distancing and mental health problems too have been caused by social distancing. Masks contributed virtually zero to this. Far more people would have died had we not implemented the policies that were enacted. In no way is social distancing an atrocity even if one assumes your distorted view of the severity of the negative effects of social distancing is correct.
This seems like its more of a hacker vs non-hacker mindset. Those of us that grew up with messing with computers and such daily, if we didn't know what the script did, would probably really appreciate someone giving an in depth explanation of the script line by line. People that want to just be hand held, and are not interested in how things actually work, wouldn't appreciate that. Sounds like the pair programmer was the latter.

Assuming this has filters, you can do "show me anyone who is interested in snowboarding around my age in Santiago" and be able to connect with people before you even land there.

Sure, it's Chatroulette, but it seems like it has a lot more potential. It's interesting that it is a South Korean company but they have clearly focused on a global concept (most of the users are not in Korea).
Ahahaha! You said company. ;) It was just me, a teenage kid, selling to people who came through the store I worked at selling computers (the store sold the Atari line).

I called it DEdit, because every programmer wants to grab a single letter title.
There is at least $625,000[1] on the table already. Not to mention how many blockchain analytics companies and other actors would pay millions to have such a capability.

Well the spanish flu happened and they did not have HVACs back then and all the windows leaked.
I think this roughly answers a question that I've been wondering about: Why don't cyber criminals hack into the energy grid, water, or other utilities? Surely their cyber security is outdated right?

Well, their cyber security may not be the most advanced, but traditional security (i.e. military strength) likely dissuades criminals from choosing those targets that are likely to put them on the short list.
Is there a paper describing how this breach was carried out so we can learn from it.
Oil does require infrastructure. What you put in your car is several steps removed from what is pumped out of the ground.
> To take the analogy a step further, a gym subscription is optional. Paying taxes is not.

You're pushing the analogy too far. You're not an autarky, there's plenty of stuff you have to pay for that isn't optional (e.g. food, shelter, etc.).
> I think the question is, how come an attack on a hospital does not have the optics of an attack on infrastructure?

An attack on a hospital affects someone if they work there or are using that hospital. A pipeline attack affects people who drive cars places and need gas. The latter group is much larger than the former.
"They resigned" is rumors and hearsay if the truth is "They are considering resigning".
For serverless, the move to much lighter runtimes like cloudflare workers or deno deploy seems like an obvious improvement. If you build your entire app on the Cloudflare "Stack" that could mean serious lock in, but it could also go in an open standard direction. I think to "replace" k8s it needs to be something that many people can run in different places. Would love to see an open serverless application runtime based on v8 workers. I think a future based on a whole lot more JS and WASM is not unlikely.

But maybe monoliths are the way, as many commenters are hoping for, because sure, distributed systems are hard, no matter how nice the abstraction.
Hmm? interesting. Here's the offending tweet:

FACT: #COVID19 is NOT airborne.

The #coronavirus is mainly transmitted through droplets
generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes or
speaks.

To protect yourself:
-keep 1m distance from others
-disinfect surfaces frequently
-wash/rub your hands
-avoid touching your Eyes Nose Mouth

The WHO gave a lot of bad advice. Some say that it was intentionally misleading. Promoting ventilation as a reasonable treatment for the initial stages of covid-19 was the worst possible advice to give front-line medical practitioners who didn't know what they were dealing with.

We now know that the fecal-aerosol route of transmission is very important. Forbes has a recent piece about the fecal-oral/aerosol route: https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamhaseltine/2021/03/22/pre... Another tweet by ... someone was about how the masks effectively aerosolize droplets.

Keeping bathrooms open but requiring face coverings was an exercise in futility.

In the case of COVID-19, the WHO seems to have implemented #PrasadsLaw [0]. "Prasad’s Law: Medical goods and services that concentrate wealth can be paid for; medical goods and services that disperse wealth are “unaffordable.”"

I think it will be a mix of serverless, k8s, vms and unikernels. I personally am very interested in last one but not sure if it will ever become mainstream.
That's not really reasonable - what about replacing hacking with murder? It's illegal for a reason - and not because it's too costly to do.

I didnt mean quantum interpretations (which are boring to me). I mean: transisitor theory is quantum theory and we wouldn't have developed the transistor to the point we have if QM wasn't a great model for solid state physics.

I'd be fine with 4 days / week for 80% salary.

I don't expect too many employers would be happy with 100% of the overheads (health insurance, office space, administration) for 80% of the productivity.
I consider this somewhat different because people who smoke knowingly do it onto themselves. If people think the benefits outweigh the risks, I don't see that as a "failure" in any way.

Passive smoking is the main cause of harm to _other_ people and is unsurprisingly also the thing that's the most regulated. (Smoking in bars etc.)

I had some emacs pinky and for a while had a script setup to make the spacebar plus a key act as control (releasing spacebar without a key pressed would just be a space). Eventually I recovered and learned to be more gentle with my pinky.
You might be interested in taking a look at and potentially participating in the "Async Vision Document"[1] which is an exercise the team is going through to collect feedback about the current state of the ecosystem and what the pain points are, as well as a way to lay doing what the desired future state of async Rust should be[2]. The process is happening, as you would expect, in the open and there's still time to influence it[3] if your concerns aren't yet addressed or even mentioned[4].

People who declare (or don't declare) $0 income and high income tax payers are disproportionally likely to be audited. And if you make $10mm+ for a number of year, you're almost certainly going to be audited and anecdotally, that has been what I've seen.

This is mostly nonsense. The only legal duty of lawyer is to defend his client. No lawyer has the burden to be "beholden to the interests of the people" whatever double speak that means.
A Canadian friend who spent 3 months on a work assignment in London felt similarly. He said that compared to Toronto, British people were far more open to striking up conversation. In Toronto, if you walk into a bar by yourself, you can forget about trying to make small talk with somebody else unless they too are sitting alone.

Not to mention, there are numerous instances of people getting harassed on the train platform, or inside the train car, and no one steps up to help. They film the incident, but they don't intervene.
I don't see any reason why an individual couldn't purchase their own whole genome sequence in France if only DTC is illegal.
Using a hole saw and cutting into metal, I'm pretty sure I could spend 8 minutes per hole. Of course I prefer to use the drill press for this, but some projects can't fit and must be done with a hand drill.

Then there's the grit wheel or flap disc, which might have me axially loading the drill for 30 minutes at a time (such as for stripping paint or sanding rust off an iron engine block).

I think they must be including a lot of people who buy or receive a drill as a gift and never use it at all, to get to 8 minutes average. I do find it believable that the cheaper ones might have a design life of 8 minutes, but that's a sad state of affairs.
I think you're right - as I said on a sibling comment, if beans are all you count, and bean-counters rule the roost, you can write this off as a one-off, and point out you had 30 years without a ransomware, and therefore we don't need to do anything...

Aka, SMB's now have access to the same tools the tech monopolies do.

GDPR-like policies will continue to flood as governments partition their Internets and data making it harder and harder to run international Internet businesses.

I'm not particularly happy about things either (especially crawling access), but it will be a net positive whenever you can level the playing field with competition.

When the biggest infringers of data are driving the creation of government policies that only they can circumvent and navigate -- that's a serious, serious problem.
We use SELinux at work. It's really a lot of work to check all requests whether they're legitimate or not.
Until the attacks get more expensive. Some companies never settle law suits even when it is obvious they will lose in court. As a result they only have to deal with courts in cases where it is obvious they will lose since no lawyer will bother a with a case that isn't obvious. (the end result is about the same lost overall - when they lose they tend to be punished in court for not settling)
You can pay hashicorp (a lot) and they manage things for you

One company I worked with went managed, another one didn't.
I think hashicorp stuff is too barebone in general. I noticed way less headaches with the managed solution and I would just host it with them.

In contrast, I feel comfortable running a k8s cluster for a smaller business of mine.
One (of many) ways: Monero -> bitcoin -> localbitcoins with stolen identity.

Each localbitcoins account can trade up to $200k a year without any kind of in-person verification.

Also a lot of exchanges let you cash out via western union so... you could theorically send yourself say 10k or 20k a a month with that, there's no need to just withdraw it all at once.

It’s The Verge, which is part of Vox Media - they aren’t exactly objective, and are one of the most left biased publications out there. In recent times there’s been an ecosystem of hate coming from the left (in news, social media) towards Elon Musk for his quirks, success, and libertarian comments. In my mind it explains these cheap articles trying to diminish efforts like Starlink.
And strace and tcpdump (and now perf and friends) can still fix almost any problem with access to the source and enough thought.
It always seemed to me that a better analogy to programming, at least programming for money (is there any other kind?), is writing for and producing a magazine.
I broadly agree with having courses to teach the topics listed, but:

> Understand shells such as sh, csh, ksh, tcsh, bash, zsh.

I was taught csh as an undergrad. A complete waste of time, in my opinion, akin to teaching BCPL rather than C. Just teach bash, and perhaps sh. To my knowledge, just about nobody writes scripts in csh, ksh, tcsh, or zsh. You use bash for portability across Unix systems, sh for even better portability across Unix systems, or you use a modern scripting language like Python3.

Students may benefit from learning zsh for interactive use, but I don't think there's enough benefit there to justify spending time teaching it.
