People don't always make the decision they know to be in their best interest. If they don't actually know what's in their best interest, then I'd say it's less an issue of stupidity and more about ignorance.

You should have kept reading, because the essay has some good points.

I think there is overlap: a data model is a kind of data, but not all the data. Other kinds of data often get neglected.
Seems like data mesh assumes a culture of good will and acting in good faith,
The power required to plane in a boat looks a bit like a normal curve -- Power consumption scales upwards exponentially with speed until you either 1) Get going fast enough to hydroplane and reach a high efficiency regime 2) Hit the peak power of the drivetrain and fail to accelerate further

A capacitor bank wouldn't really help here, since that power has to come from somewhere. The issue isn't that the batteries aren't capable of outputting that peak power -- Even small battery systems are more than capable of outputting the 50kw+ it might take to get on plane. The real issue is that doing that repeatedly requires you to scale up your battery capacity and weight, which is a positive feedback loop.

Boats are not just getting on/off plane once on a tank of gas, they're doing it 10-20 times depending on driving conditions, surroundings, no wake zones. This might happen 100s of times for watersports like wakeboarding. So a big part of the equation is finding a way to save weight elsewhere that can then be used to insert more batteries.
It might be, but those boats are not in the same class as the Arc Boat.
No, but I think it’s important to do that by relying on reason and evidence. Anyone known to repeat lies is unlikely to be right about deep secrets, just as the Snowden leak didn’t validate the people convinced that the government was reading your emails on behalf of the Trilateral Commission and aliens in Area 51.

More like, we train a huge amount of aerospace engineers every year but there's actually not a lot of aerospace work relative to the volume of graduates, so they have to go find other things to do. And seeing as there are many similarities with a mechanical engineering degree, what they can do is quite broad.

Also my understanding is that there are very people in the US who are naval architects.
You have three ways to vote:

1. With your ballot: very small chance of changing policies (1 vote)

2. With your wallet: small chance of changing policies (n votes through political donations)

3. With your feet: guaranteed chance of changing policies

The internet facilities 100% democracy as it simplifies voting with your feet (remote work, social networks), allowing likeminded individuals to congregate and influence policy. Blockchain furthers this, unlocking the ability to have a referendum on every issue, which maximises consent.
Wrong again, bc you're leaving out intent. People aren't taking the vaccine bc they don't want to inadvertantly put themselves in harm's way, not bc they want to infect other people.

Or maybe they're like me, and have already been infected with mild symptoms. Have you noticed that no one talks about natural immunity anymore, btw?

Again, anyone who has seen the VAERS data, and doesn't think twice about getting the vaccine, is just plain reckless.
Lots of recreational boats (probably most small ones, aside from fishing boats with a trolling motor) used on lakes have no backup motor. If things break, you hopefully find someone to tow you.
Doesn't this tie into a lot what's going on currently such as the work from home controversy?

At my previous employer, the definition of a successful employee was someone who did anything anyone asked of him enthusiastically. This included but was not limited to, massive overtime, answering e-mails, texts and phone calls day or night. Being available on weekends and Holidays. Agreeing to arbitrary deadlines, always being on slack. etc.

Once, the VP sent me an email at 4:30am. at 7:30am he called my direct boss to ask why I hadn't answered him. My bosses response, "I assume he is sleeping, like I was."

I also once managed a team in India, it was awful. I would wake up to an inbox full of questions, so I'd start answering their questions, head into work, and do any legwork needed, write them extensive instructions, then start my own work for the day. Just about the time I'd get home, they'd be waking up and stumbling into the office asking for clarification on my first e-mails. I actually physically became sick due to the lack of sleep, stress, etc. Meetings with them were either in the middle of the night for them or myself.

It's only the engineers sometimes myopic viewpoint which assumes everyone is seeking efficiency. I want the efficiency which is most meaningful to me-- to spend the least amount of time at work and produce the most, so I can have a predictable life and spend time doing things that are more meaningful to me.

I think the real answer is that managers in many environments don't actually care about efficiency. I think they view it almost in the opposite way. The more they put on you, the more you may accomplish, the better "value" they're getting from you.

Yes, I looked at TipTap for a while recently and the API looks like a really nice layer on top of ProseMirror.

Draft.js was another far out experience for me. I built the first attempt at my app with it, only to discover that Draft.js didn't work on Android. It was buggy on iOS, but on Android just didn't work. If you've been using Draft.js you probably remember Android support landing with the huge PR from Fabio M. Costa at GoDaddy[0], but by then I had already decided I needed to find something else. That PR actually led me to ProseMirror:

> This approach is the one used by Prosemirror (see https://github.com/ProseMirror/prosemirror-view/blob/master/...), which is the only Rich Text Editor I've tried that works well on Android. [1]

When I looked at ProseMirror, I was spooked by the apparent complexity. Tried Quill, Trix (worked great, but uncustomizable) and then went with Slate, only to have the above-mentioned experience. Remembered that comment on the PR, and redid my editor in ProseMirror, which finally was something that worked. Thank you Marijn and the ProseMirror community. It's been a journey with these editors.

That makes it $2.5k/ft! For a recreational, non-competition, Class I boat, that's absolutely incredible to me.
I agree. I don't think our government is qualified to make these sorts of decisions. I don't know who is. I am not advocating for nationalization of these services.

I am only saying that these people never signed up to have to make decisions about such impactful matters. They are not political philosophers, and they are stuck making decisions of that gravity. I can be mad when they do it wrong, but I can also recognize how tragically outmatched they are. At least governments have judiciaries and cabinets and checks and balances and constitutions and stuff. These guys were just trying to make money on the internet, and suddenly human rights in China became their problem. Nobody seriously expects Twitter to have a full blown judiciary and legislature for processing bans. Nobody expects them to write a constitution which becomes a treasure of a historical document, on how to properly govern the flow of the world's conversation. But at this point, those things would actually be appropriate. It's not surprising they're struggling trying to solve the problem with algorithms. I don't think anyone could succeed at that, and they don't even realize they have the responsibility and opportunity -- they're just trying to do their best to be socially responsible and then get back to making money on the internet.

The best suggestion I have for them is to hold out their hands to humanity and say -- "Look, we have a tremendous opportunity here, and it's bigger than just us. How should we use it?"
Exactly, I don't see how this can compete with a nautique for wakeboarding or riva for cruising, and it's definitley not a fishing boat.

This seems like a boat designed by people who don't get boating, for an audience that doesn't really care about boats.
AFAIK you must hold down both power and volume button on IOS for this to work. On Android there’s a Lockdown mode option which others have mentioned.
So "Stop" signs should say "Stop because there might be another car coming from another direction and you'll be able to avoid it if you stop and see it coming".

I'm not sure that type of explanatory thing would work with most signs. Instead, we need:

1) people we trust to determine what the signs should say so that we are willing to listen to the signs.

2) Easy access to more details explanations of why/what the sign means.

3) An easy method of questioning the sign makers and and getting them changed or removed when they when either the sign maker was wrong or it's simply no longer needed.

#1 is probably the hardest.

Having played with the Firebase Python client, outstanding writes within a transaction are "kind of" exposed because you fetch the document, and make alterations to it before saving it (within a "transaction"). That object, when you make alterations to it, bubbles up the changes -- AFAICT, this is a bit of client side hack, but it's ergonomically wonderful.

> A Data Mesh is additional business logic to make data easier to understand, at the cost of implementing that business logic.

It's logic that must be written nonetheless (in fact, logic that is currently written at any company with massive data and disparate sources of it), but instead of a centralized team of data engineers becoming the bottleneck -- and possibly misunderstanding the data -- the writing of said logic becomes the responsibility of the team who owns that particular domain, removing both the bottleneck and the hurdles of working with data you don't fully understand.

> The fact that "Data Mesh" is pushed by a consulting company has me suspicious as well.

That is a fair concern. Much of the software industry is busy selling snake oil and fads. It's our job to find the actual content and practices that work, and ditch the snake oil.
The 1st days volume was huge. I suspect that Robinhood's choice to let its own customers buy shares might have been the problem. I bet many of them were quick to sell once the IPO did not meet their desire for it to explode upwards and that always leads to a down day.

Too bad since the debut will become an example of what not to do for an IPO. It will Lock-out the small investors in the future since no company will want to be another example of a bad IPO debut.
I think you need to clean up your vocabulary. For instance Citadel doesn’t settle Robinhood trades. Further during this instance Robinhood cleared for themselves.

Providing payment for order flow neither means you are the settler or the clearer.

Effectively every entity that trades securities in the US has to be either a client of a member or a member of DTCC.
Appreciate the response. Regarding side effects, I picked those 3 because at least in my own family ~25% had those shortly after the 2nd dose, and are still ongoing. Their doctors think it’s coincidence, but it makes me skeptical how rare the side effects actually are. Open to any hard data though. If we could treat covid and stop it via natural immunity as well as vaccination, I think it could work better than ongoing boosters and mandates.
Well, sure. They actually exist.

We know what the long term consequences of vaccination are: reduction of risk of the long term consequences of COVID. These include breathing difficulties, fatigue and cognitive impairment. The objectively proven benefits of vaccination are so starkly and concretely conclusive that it is functionally impossible for anyone's imagined fantastical, hypothetical concerns to outweigh them.

A vaccine isn't even really medicine, it's science. It is a method of giving your immune system a heads up about a pathogen without exposing you to the actual pathogen. The vaccine doesn't hang around in your body for the "long term". The vaccine material is quickly disposed of by your body. After a few weeks, the only things left inside you is your own immune system, better educated.
This depends how you interact with the site though. "fake news" warnings will appear on links even if you navigate directly to the page of the person who posted it. Even worse, Twitter has blocked certain stories from being sent via direct message in the past. The algorithmic feeds may make up a much larger portion of the practical problem, but I think regardless of where you stand on that issue some of these sites have already overreached with how they moderate personal pages and private messages.
Is this done in an incremental way? Changing the org from the central-data-team-as-bottleneck to this is a huge step. Just thinking of all the buy-in you need makes me dizzy. Everyone seems to want direct access to the data, but are they willing to do the effort of taking responsibility for it as well?

I'd love to see how a smooth transition to this goes :)

This title shouldn't be "AWS [admin panels and documentation] Support for Internet Explorer 11 is Ending" or something like that?

The title can create a confusion and read as "Services hosted on AWS will not support IE11" and create some freak outs.

The things of AWS that will not support AWS are:

> AWS Management Console, web-based services such as Amazon Chime or Amazon Honeycode, or other parts of the AWS web site (AWS Documentation, AWS Marketing, AWS Marketplace, or AWS Support).

Where did you get the "low" figure from? I wouldn't call it low at all. I would call it insanely high.

> But apparently, if 2% of Muslims become suicide bombers, all Muslims are bad,

You're saying a lot of very ridiculous things. If an institution condones sexual abuse, it is fair to point it out.

> Good luck applying that to society at large (which, by the way, is IMPROVING along with the military).

I guess it all depends on how you look at it (meaning, if you choose to throw your hands up and say "it's going great!" without actually paying attention).

> Making approval depend on perfection (instead of consistent improvement) is the enemy of good, once again

Who brought up perfection? I'm saying it's an absolute shitshow, for which there is data to corroborate. You're saying "no it's improving", based on legitimately 0 data at all.

Ask HN: Googler/YTer Able to Help with CIDRAP's Dr Osterholm's YT Strike?
Dr. Michael Osterholm's podcast and associated YouTube channel, The Osterholm Update: COVID-19, earned a YouTube strike against his YouTube channel for COVID-19 disinformation. I believe this strike was against episode 61: Divided by Delta, which was removed from the YouTube platform. His team challenged the strike and failed to remove the strike and his channel is at risk of being deplatformed for disinformation. In episode 62, he described his attempt at countering misinformation in episode 61 as the reason for having an algorithm capturing his post as disinformation. He's caught in the position of being unable to talk about the disinformation and countering said disinformation, because mentioning banned words could trigger the automated strike. Anybody from Google / YouTube able to reach out to UofM's legal team to sort out his channel? Osterholm said that he had asked his university's legal group for assistance. It would be awesome if his channel could gain verified status to provide a rational voice against all the COVID-19 misinformation out there.

This is Osterholm's wiki bio, notably he is the head of CIDRAP he was named as an advisor by Biden during his transition : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Osterholm

How do you distinguish correlation and causation? People who are concerned about something are naturally going to search online and engage with content that confirms their biases. Do you have a robust evidence that vaccine hesitant go on Facebook and change their minds based on pro-vaccine content that is heavily promoted these days?
Given that most application developers started with something like a postgresql, or a MySQL that has pessimistic locking, and thus transactions rarely end in read / write conflicts (aborts), how have people (and potentially programming languages) adapted to optimistic concurrency control?

Also, when you say:

What do you mean? What are server-side transactions?
