sorry but this opinion is ridiculous on its face. Blaming china because of population is a complete joke. China (by a large margin), Russia, and poorly configured proxies are 95% of all malicious traffic targeting US-based businesses. It's not even a question.

If you run a small-medium sized business in the US blocking all of countries you can't do business with anyway will save a ton of trouble.
Thanks for these insights! I think retaining the actor example while postponing the content on model checking and linearizability might be the way to go. More details on related Rust concepts could be helpful too, given that this may be the first encounter w/ the language for many readers. With that in mind, I’m inclined to break the first chapter into 3:

1. A high level overview of distributed systems and the actor model. Perhaps no code.
2. A Rust intro via an implementation of the Actor trait (which is where the `on_msg`/etc methods can be explained). The chapter would include the same Actor implementation but would omit verification.
3. An intro to system properties, nondeterminism, and verification via model checking. Here the book could postpone a discussion of linearizability and instead indicate a simpler property for the actor system. Linearizability could then be introduced when discussing replication later in the book.

> It seems to me that about half of our “new deal activity” right now is happening outside of the US. And very little of it is in western Europe where most of our non-US investing has been for the last decade.

I always thought the problem with European startups was lack of a VC critical mass and risk taking ethos. So I thought the globalization of VC would help, but this sounds like it’s bleaker than ever.

Is it the absurd bureaucracies? Taxes? Red tape? Europeans are a super-smart bunch but their devs make far less and they lack any superstar tech giants. Makes no sense.
That’s actually what it did though!
You'll really understand this business once you get to the point where you can't wait to give up the "grown up baby" to some junior who will be stuck with it for some time to come. Of course only internally, showing such attitude makes getting rid of an overexploited project harder.
> Look at the silence about the Uyghurs.

Uyghurs is an internal affair and they brought Beijing pressure on themselves by making terrorism acts. Fishing in other nations' waters, bullying Taiwan, leaking virus are international acts that are serious enough for retaliation from the international community, if they wanted to do something about it.

I think what they mean is that the manpage you link is just synopsis of command line options and not anything that help understand what happens with QEMU and how to fix it when something goes wrong.
Yes from the point of view of observers. From the Nature article abstract:
"in practice, this means that a light pulse propagating through the atomic vapour cell appears at the exit side so much earlier than if it had propagated the same distance in a vacuum that the peak of the pulse appears to leave the cell before entering it. "
I can also add a supplementary chapter explaining how it works under the hood. You’re correct about `ActorModel`: its a reusable model of actor system semantics parameterized by an `Actor` implementation. Its “dual” is the `spawn` function that lets you run that same `Actor` implementation on a real network.
That was a fight over land the UK considered theirs. This would be China going to war over their right to commit theft.

Just my anecdotal experience but we've had the kiosks in Australia for a while now, and I've seen queues for a kiosk while there was a person waiting at the register with nothing to do...
...and I stood in the queue instead of going to the register...
This wouldn't be a navy issue. This is illegal fishing, a matter for a coast guard (law enforcement) rather than a navy. The navy guards the sea against other navies. A coast guard arrests criminals.
"We start our back of the house cooks at $17 hour and up. For full time employees we also offer health insurance."

That's clearly not enough, especially during a pandemic before there was a vaccine.

"For those of you who think you can just pay more and raise prices by a nickel, you are out of touch. As a point of reference, in 2020 the minimum wage increased from $12 hour to $13.50. The increase in costs to my business based on 2019 hours was over $65,000 which is most of my profit. Then covid hit."

If the only way some businesses are going to stay afloat is by paying low wages then maybe they shouldn't be in business.
Basically everything we do see is a hallucination. It just happens that the hallucinations usually match the source. To see what's really there takes a lot longer and careful unbiased analysis.
> Are younger lawyers less likely to take cases of clients they deem detestable

If only that. The younger lawyers would attack (sometimes physically, like with Molotov cocktails, as in the case of Urooj Rahman and Colinford Mattis) those they find detestable, and anybody in the law profession that dares to provide them with any service. Which once was considered a basic human right, but not anymore - now, if you defend the deplorables, you become unperson yourself.
This is where the *BSD trees including the kernel and the distribution also helps - they can keep the “user interface” the same while still updating everything.

Linux seems to have to create a new way of doing something because there’s no guarantee they can get the distributions to update the tooling.
Interesting, I haven't encountered either of these issues, but I serve about 1 request a month (to myself) and have Certbot running automatically.
I speak for myself. OpenBSD and FreeBSD are a joy to use. Haven't checked on NetBSD but that's what I would use if I had a m68k system lying around.

> Every single employer that crawls out from under their rock and howls some version of "nobody wants to work anymore" is saying "I pay crap wages for my crap job, and expected to do so forever".

Even worse, they also expected to make obscene profit off the backs of those workers being paid crap wages.

McDonald's, as one example, makes $10B in profit every single year. [1]. Their profit went up during the pandemic, 13% YoY.

How anyone thinks they shouldn't increase wages and be content with only a few billion in profit is insanity.

15+ or so years ago I worked in the NOC of the 3rd or so largest ISP in the US and a random network engineer did this one evening. We got a big influx of customers complaining about email not working to their family, etc, until I finally figured it out.

That network guy (classic long hair "security" guy) was a lazy asshole for doing it then and the internet needs to have the technology to deal with bad actors beyond AS/geo-level blocking now.

Don't feel bad. I've used FreeBSD for a long time but still find it kinda confusing when the "same" command has different effects depending on system state. Heck even I got it wrong since I forgot it's actually three steps — install the new kernel and reboot into it, install the new userland and reboot into that, reinstall packages, and then remove the old userland: https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.0R/installation/#upgrade

On the plus side it's super-easy to recover since even if your `pkg` is broken there's a `pkg-static`: https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pkg-static&sektion...

A `pkg-static bootstrap -f && pkg upgrade -f` would probably sort that system out if you ever end up in that state again :)
The best example of this is pair programming with someone for any length of time. No one has a proper subset of knowledge it is is immediately apparent and both sides value the exchanges.

And often the interactions themselves are the teachers. My mind was blown when a particularly bright child asked me what's the difference between a dream and reality. The best I could come up with is that this 'reality' has a larger continuity and is the one that people in this large continuation agree to call 'real'. I don't know what I could have said if he mentioned a recurring dream with a continuing state. I did say that boils down to a label assignment in case it that should ever come up.
To put it rather mildly, I don't really think they care.
I just went through an ADA compliance audit and we got dinged pretty hard for semantic markup inconsistency. It's certainly become more common in production apps, much like making things SEO optimized before. Keep doing real HTML, it's still important!
It doesn’t that a rocket scientist to figure out what happened. Those that were working in a restaurant, that got closed because of covid. Either claimed unemployment as long as they could. Or found work elsewhere in another field. For example depending on their education could’ve went into manufacturing. Around my area a lot of factories have decent health care and retirement plans. Plus paid vacations. So it could be tempting to someone with a family.
Why not simply not be like this?
Precisely. I'n quite excited to see if google will make chromeOS functional for development in the sense of a meaningful, non-scrapped together existence. Bringing real Linux programs out of beta is a start.

I think recognizing that security is just one of the many engineering challenges in building software is important. It must always be prioritized and budgeted like any technical debt. It can’t be ignored, but it is rarely the supreme concern for most software. We do a lot of turn key security engineering for our customers and it’s always about prioritizing the right concerns, both from an implementation perspective and from an organizational perspective. Another thing a lot of folks struggle with is knowing where your product is and where the security fights should be at a given product and organization scale.

Risk assessment and threat modeling are huge for creating such a prioritization. Whether it’s formal and in depth or informal depends again on where things are.

Beyond these concepts, well engineered software simply has less security defects, so focusing on quality and managing technical debt often means less security debt as well.

It’s down to being an immature practitioner to think security concerns are always the primary ones. I think it’s a hard skill to master though, so I am not saying that with great judgement, someone should be a champion for security at most organizations and advocate for it. I think using empathy and curiosity goes a long way to maturing as a practitioner, but it took me many years of practice.

Is there a famous case about duplication of a codon in an insertion?

Looking at the paper that is linked in the article, the double codon is in Figure 1B. I really don't understand why that is a good alignment, the rest of the sequence looks very different. Is that usual or I'm missing something important?

> U.S. Navy Arrest and Sink 300 Chinese Fishing Ships Off South America Coast

The video is fake. It's based on real events but congrats, you just fell for fake news and then helped spread it. I can't find any info that the US sunk Chinese fishing boats. That would be headline news if it actually happened.
It's not ACLU's identity crisis, it's the Left's identity crisis. Civil rights are checks on government and institutional powers. When the left gained a massive institutional power and a lot of governmental power, it turned out it doesn't really like this power to be checked and challenged. It's one thing to fight for the free speech of people who are maybe abhorrent, but ultimately their speech won't change much, it's another thing when the speech is by your political rival, the fate of the power distribution in the nation depends on it, and you have all the tools to shut it down. It is hard to resist the temptation, and the Left didn't even try to resist it for long - in fact, they embraced it. Turns out, the hard question question wasn't "can you defend the Nazi's free speech", but "can you defend the Republican's free speech, if it could cost your favorite candidate the election?". Looks like the major part of the Left decided the right answer is "no", and winning is more important that preserving the liberties. After all, if the good guys are in power, who needs their powers to be checked? Only the bad guys.
McDonald's has been reducing their number of workers and franchising as per their 2016-2017 plan. So most of the people that work at McD are not even their employees (since McD the brand is now just a real estate/leasing business).
Yes but for all practical purposes it's not the same organization anymore.
Making better decisions with the Brier score
My experiences with the kiosk at McD's have trained me to make the order there and then walk up to the counter to pay, because it would never let me pay at the kiosk. I like using it to order because it doesn't mishear me like the cashier usually does, so I also make bigger, more complex orders. But they do not have the full transaction worked out, last time I was there.

OTOH, I use the Starbucks online ordering all the time to have my order ready the moment I walk in. It let me feel like I was "getting out" during 2020 with minimal risk.
It helps me to have my understandings challenged, I could have been wrong, and going through trying to explain myself helps with me better understanding things too, so cheers to you as well!
Although I agree with this, I'd point out that the final line has significant implications for American life in general.

The entire restaurant business is fundamentally predicated on paying most of its workers below-living wage rates. If restaurants paid its workers reasonable rates, the cost of eating out would rise (not by the same amount as wages, but a significant proportion thereof). This would have dramatic impact on the frequency and social breadth of dining out.

I'm not arguing that this is good or bad, just pointing out that it's about a bit more than just some specific businesses.
Look, in most corps you can shelter for a really long time at the lowest non up-or-out position. In fact to some degree that's the safest level to stay at, though the worst paid one. It's totally fine with everyone.
I doubt it was to mock.
Former east block countries had supply issues with meat.

My experience is from Poland where the Party was not only glad that Catholics don't eat meat on Fridays (and you are allowed to eat Fish, but if you don't have it you won't eat it) but also tried to introduce No Meat Monday.

BTW. In 80ties (don't remember exactly when) each family was receiving paper slips that allowed to buy meat (you had to give also money beside the sleep) and some other high value merchandise. If you had children you were given more such slips for meat (and probably other items).

Hi, do you have any recommended resources to have good foundationss on these?
I agree. Most of the comments are disappointingly poor and as a result there's little actual critical discussion.

I was really hoping to chime into a fruitful discussion about positive vs negative protection of the first amendment rights. 1A says "... Congress shall make no law ..." but California's Constitution (for example) goes farther to say "Every person may freely speak, write and publish his or her sentiments on all subjects, being responsible for the abuse of this right". This lead to the fascinating Pruneyard Shopping Center v. Robins Supreme Court case[0] which surfaced the careful distinction between the two senses of Free Speech and the government's obligation to protect it. Where does an org like ACLU stand on what precisely defines Free Speech, and, the responsibilities of each State, Federal Govt and NGO like itself to protect it?

IANAL, just someone who hoped we'd discuss things a bit more carefully on HN.

Yes it is, and of course it's not - it's artificial.

If it were intelligent we'd be calling it "synthetic".
My favorite, albeit not that interesting crow story...

Southwestern Indiana has some ecosystems that are unusual for the state, including a bald cypress swamp remnant. I visited Hovey Lake near that swamp two consecutive early mornings, and both days I heard an unusual (to me) bird call right at sunrise that I was able to identify as a fish crow.

We don't have typically have fish crows elsewhere in the state, not even sure they're common at Hovey Lake, so I have no idea whether this sunrise behavior is common, but I did find a similar story from much further south.

Recovering from Religion
Besides home schooling children are already being "trained" by professionals while the parents both work full time. I don't see where the benefit of fully separating children from their parents would come from.

Human animal relationships I can't see being approved, for one how could you ensure consent from a dog or other animal. Robots definitely, it's already happening. Robot brothels/sex dolls are already here.

I can't see the last happening unless we become some sort of Handmaid's Tale religious dystopia which I think is very unlikely with the growing trend to secularism.

Indeed. I just want MS to merge the control panel & $ettings in a fluent UI, for the love of god. do that and update a few UI formats away from the half-assed reimplementation of W7 & 8(which it is) and frankly Windows is in a great position at that rate.
You've described the legit way of doing it.

And on the other end of the spectrum you can run it as a cash only side gig and make a nice little slush fund for yourself.
The reused lesson plans still often need to be updated, either in light of curriculum changes or just because something “didn’t work” (too hard, too easy, messes up a dependency, want to emphasize something else, etc).

As for why there aren’t off-the-shelf plans:

You might want to adapt the curriculum to the current class of students or the broader community. The College Board does distribute a syllabus for AP US History classes, but it’s deliberately sparse so that teachers can plug in people and events that are “locally valued” (their words, not mine). A class in Alaska might spend more time on Native events and statehood; one in Boston might up the emphasis on the Revolutionary War events that happened nearby; Texas is going to go crazy with the Alamo. This is true for other subjects too. A science class might spend more time on local ecosystems that they can visit. A few of my literature class read a play and then went to see a production of it; that part presumably had to change every year, based on what was being performed nearby.

The other reason is that the teachers need to review the lesson plan anyway: no one can remember a thousand hours of material! While doing so, it makes sense to “refactor” them into something that matches your own mental model of the content. Teaching off someone else’s materials feels weird and often goes a little more poorly.
Great advice! Now...
