I wrote "building" a house, not buying the land. But if you need to know, I could recently have bought a 6000qm plot for about 100k€ about 1.5h by train from Berlin.

Also, again, your friends do not "get" anything. They pay way more than that for getting to work. They recover some of the financial burden of commuting, while you don't pay that in the first place and safe the time. Why should society help you in your insane quest to live in an ever denser environment, compete for square cm and minutes of time with literally hundreds of competitors while the countryside just rots away?

Your singular perspective about the big city life being the only true path is exactly what makes the city so expensive. If one day you cannot pay the rent anymore this has been partly because of this ideology. Don't complain when you have to move into some crappy apartment in nowhere when you retire and the young guns with 15times your income just pay ridiculous rents for your apartment.
Homomorphic encrypted cyphertext cannot be decrypted without the private key, but you can do math on it and get the encrypted result, which you still cannot decrypt. However, you can still do maths and make predictions. It's far more expensive, computationally speaking, but can be used for many things.

It's all about homologies, understand what that means to understand why this is possible while still having good security and doing encryption correctly.
- To be honest, not sure. I am not an SEO expert.

- Most of the end visitors, those that visit our creators websites, are actually mobile users and they have an average session duration of 50+ seconds and so far we have very high retention with our creators so I think there hasn't been to big of an issue with accessibility. I tested our website on a iPhone SE and it ran great on good wifi. All modern browsers support WebGL. Our fallback would probably be around bad wifi.

- We only use 3D web sites to run our funnels. I always tell people content is king at the end of the day so I guess you will have to just try it out and see how it goes. Right now, it is hard for us to share with you robust analytics via conversion rates and CTAs so I recommend using a service like BITLY and attaching bitly to the buttons so you can track clicks. Here is one of our funnels: https://www.muse.place/pandassaurus
The funnel was built completely with builder tools, so you have the same tools I do. So at the very least I can tell you that our growth/marketing strategy at Muse is 100% reliant on our own product if that helps.
Me too. Today I turned on my Windows 7 machine for the first time in months. I checked my old Facebook account. I deleted some unwanted friend requests. I shut the Windows machine down and went back to the Linux machines.
Hi @ibdf!

Glad that you liked. Thank you so much for trying it out. :)

That's right, resource utilization is generally once the WebRTC connections are initiated as you click on "Go Live". We will work on it in the upcoming releases.

Feel free to send a hi to founders@volcano.social and we will keep you posted as we make progress.

I think there is: Count the applications for the infrastructure projects that you actually do. I doubt most companies can do more than one at a time. So if you have five applicants you can maybe do 3 projects in parallel before the price raises absurdly.
There are other ways to leak data when you train ML on it for example. (many example inputs really :)
If you do try it out, please keep me updated on the results. Very curious what your stats are. Happy to compare more analytics over email.
CUPS provides an IPP service over those printers that aren't natively IPP.

Now printers integrate the IPP functionality.
In the first year we just told people, which was obviously very stupid in hindsight.

In the second year, we had a survey where devs could say what their preference was: (a) team/specific devs (b) topic (c) none

That worked pretty well.
SQL is a query language. Data normalization is a relational design methodology. They aren’t actually related except that relational databases often use SQL and benefit from normalization. You can normalize data models without SQL and you can use SQL to interact with denormalized data.
It looks okay on internet explorer with compatibility view on.
I'm trying to remember why we've always been told to not do hosting in Germany (adult sites) - something about laws there that are anti-free speech and they have to respond to requests .. something.. it's been a while. I would look towards having servers in several countries and germany would not be one of them.

I'd get off cloudflare too - but you are going to need a dns that can take DDos attacks, as well as attacks of the woke mob warriors -

so they are going to try to get your registrar to take you out too, your hosting, your hosting country / govs.. their def gonna get stripe to kick you quickly.

they are going to hack you, and try to release a DB with customer's doxx plus the donaters..

they will prob try to get visa/ms to ban you and maybe the us gov's int block list, whatever that stuff is called.

with all that being said - there is a need for this and lots of people will use it if the fees are less than the other options.

I've been kicking ideas similar around for a while now - I can see this being used in many forms. If you are pre-prepped for the mobs of haters, I'd like to see this succeed.

not sure if pornhub got a new processor that does the visa/mc - if so I'd chat with them. crypto is sadly the main need here.

I'd split the system up into like 5 different companies - running different jurisdictions - this will help deflect some of the hate and hopefully keep any one fail from taking the whole system down - this is just what I see as the future sadly.

Years ago I saw an interview with the guy who founded this website. It was at some ham meetup. I have looked around and can’t find that interview anymore. It was originally on YouTube… does anyone know the video I’m talking about? He specifically talks about learning that you can do anything you put your mind to after his MIT Phd.

Huh. So can one leverage/hack lp to serve as a generic service spooler? Has anyone done so (in a mildly documented way)?
That's only true if the machine builds walls at the same speed as a person and the person can only babysit one machine at a time. If the machine is 10 times faster, or the person can babysit 10 machines, then you've reduced your labor costs by 90% or your output by 1000%.
Postscript has commands for that, you can preprocess the file appropriately.

These are prefab houses. They are built in factory and then pieced together on site. What the poster was asking for was free/cheap plans to build a house, without support.

But then you have to deal with self-hosting emails and all the associated bullshit ( reputation, spam lists, dealing with spam on your side, etc.).

That was my first thought. The implications:

- The disease is likely to persist even if eradicated in humans.

- The disease will continue to mutate and evolve in this (and potentially other) animal populations.

- If North American wildlife are acquiring SARS-COV-2, then animal populations elsewhere are all but certainly doing so as well.

> Also just want to add that working in a physical job for 50 years is much better for your body than sitting at a desk for 50 years.

This is a pipe dream of white collar who never did any actual, real, physical job for a very prolonged time. It's not like going to the gym for free or doing just the right amount of sport. It's something that stresses your joints and your muscles day in day out. Obviously you will partly get used to it and be "more fit" than a white collar but you will also develop back pain and joints pain.

Its much more usable now that IDEs can shrink 10000 character base64 data for display and display image previews if you hover over them. Internet connections are no longer that you need to wait 30 seconds after text has loading for 50kb of images. Can't wait for the utopia without PDFs and MS Office formats, the relics of printer and projector era... and the mixed bag of wasm powered apps delivered as self contained html (download a tax calculator page, fill it and email it to a friend for checking, file it to the government).
Although with many clusters, compromising a single node is likely to lead to cluster compromise as it allows for all the service account tokens assigned to workloads running on the compromised node to be used by the attacker :)
More and more we saw in the latest Microsoft products (also other companys) really bad ui and features. Nobody want have these features exept some marketing people. Nobody use these features .. they are just anyoing as hell, like the actual save file dualog in office, the 3D directory in home etc .. For a time it might work, after a while your product is just a piece of broke shit.
Yep, that's the real issue. It optimizes one of the less expensive steps in the construction process; therefore the savings are not significant enough to matter much.
Microsoft really is trying hard to get Windows 11 to fail. They still haven't realized most people don't feel the urge to update unless its 100% painless or it's necessary. If you alienate or disgrunt the "techies", ie those who recommend people what to do with their tech, you are going to get people that remove 11 to install 10, or holdouts on older versions. That's the way it is. IT Departments won't maintain two separate versions of Windows, so expect 10 to remain the default everywhere until 2025.

This is a common misconception.

Columnar stores do indeed enable wide tables but they don’t replace the need for normalization or the benefits. Wide tables and normalization (or denormalization) solve different problems.

From the perspective of a database the difference between RAM and disk is latency. Normalization is still a factor in query performance.
This is quite a nice introduction to cryptography on it's own, there is not Bitcoin aspect to it at all.

It introduces what cryptography (very basic number shift cyphers) and then brings in hashing , symmetric / asymmetric encryption and the finally elliptic curves.
But that's what the article is about! The "far from", at 2% annual growth, isn't all that far at all!
Databases have no "host" they have "clients" which are heterogenous. So directing this critique at SQL is completely unfounded.

.NET added LINQ and now basic queries are integrated. It was not up to SQL, it was up to .NET

And calling it "very low-level" makes me question if you understand what SQL does and is. It's probably the only mainstream 4th generation language I can think of.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth-generation_programming_...
" I still hate to compose SQL in code, but there is no better way."

The one big problem with SQL is intermixing query language and query parameters. This requires escaping and is the source of many PHP vulnerabilities. Instead of

do_sql('SELECT * FROM tab WHERE name = "abc"')

there should have been a standard where you wrote

do_sql('SELECT * FROM tab where name = V1", "abc")

or something like that. So you don't do string operations on the query parameters.
So, I don't understand how this can be cheaper. I just saw a neighbor put together a house out of large bricks with six guys in two days. Doing the same using this method seems like it would have been more expensive. Is this an economies-of-scale thing or what?

Edit: Here's a second video [1] where they use concrete. It says that factory can makes enough for 60 houses per year. It also says, at the end, that it's not cheaper but faster and "easier on the nerves" for the builders.

You are right, regarding the wastefulness. Additionally, there are extra risks involved when data needs to be transferred between a storage and compute facility.

To a degree I get why architects these days like to separate everything into individual narrow and easier to manage/tuned services. But separating business logic from the data it runs on may equally be a fundamental mistake, when it comes to guarding integrity of both data and the logic acting on it.

There are good argument for advocating that actually ALL business logic should be implemented alongside the data it runs on, inside the database itself. Only the logic specific for presentation should exist separately, in whatever front-end is used. I've seen that done successfully, several times in fact. It does require some programming skills which I've not seen
in most programmers these days though. Even less among the young dogs.

Maybe the key question here is: does that say something about proper software design / architecture, or about the state of what programmers these days actually know about the fundamentals.

I believe it's easy to hate on something like SQL from a position of ignorance (to be clear: SQL does have serious shortcomings, without a doubt). Still, in nearly 30 years I've not seen anything come along that is fundamentally better (and gaining enough traction to succeed).

As for those who like to complain that stored procedures are too limited because you would have to implement everything in SQL (I've heard that one a few times too many), plenty of databases have extension to program stored procedures in different languages (e.g. python).
I think about that every time I see yet another article on 3d printing houses.

My parents added a bedroom to a stick framed house. The floor joists took a weekend. Nailing together and erecting walls took one weekend. Framing the roof, another weekend. That was my dad, mom, brother and I. And we used a skill saw, hammers and nails.

I think the issue is each task of itself is fairly optimized. Yet there are a large number of them to do. And a problem is automation generally requires tight tight tolerances or you're back to hand fitting everything. For instance with molding a skilled tradesman will just install it without any detailed plans. Working around any small variation won't slow him down at all.

Another issue I see is lot of focus on single family. Gut feeling is mass produced single family is a dying industry in the west.
Hi @djmips!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It's sad to hear that. :(

We wrote here the reasons behind the name Volcano: https://volcano.live/blog/volcano-begins/

Looking forward to make you happy with the product in future if not with the name. :)
Oh excel...

What a love hate relationship I have with it.

On the one hand, it is great for doing a quick and dirty analysis with data not in a DB, on the other, it mangles data and translates the keywords/function names.
Where have you looked? If you have domain specific experience with security it would really help but security is growing so rapidly I suspect they probably have trouble filling all of the data science/ML/AI roles without also hiring people who have focused on other areas.

I hear quite a bit about security companies/large companies with mature security programs trying to build services/products that utilize AI. FireEye/Mandiant, Rapid7, Palo Alto Networks, Microsoft, Apple, Google, Talos, would probably be good places to look.

Terrible idea on several levels.

Avoid jetdirect (9100) port like the plague. Partial files? Errors parsing the postscript? Outputting to the jetdirect port will result in printing every bit of that trash out, no questions asked. Walked up to a printer and found Nearly blank pages with one PCL or Postscript line telling you there's an error? That's jetdirect printing for you, and there's no good reason for it. LPD and IPP have actual protocols signaling start and end of jobs, so nothing comes out if something in the process fails, saving paper, toner and frustration. Yeah, you can't just use netcat, but you can easily use lp: lp -h 192.168.0.30 file.ps

Printing raw to a printer without drivers is also a terrible idea, it happens to work some of the time, but leaves you at the mercy of printer defaults. Printing a US Letter page on a printer which defaults to A4 (or vise versa)? Say goodbye to part of your print job. Now, yeah, you could program the correct command sequences into your postscript document, but why would you want to? Plenty of other things used in documents will cause errors if sent to a printer without being sanitized by CUPS (or filters to lpng, or whatnot).

CUPS isn't great. It makes printing so much harder than it needs to be. I absolutely hate having to remember the exact syntax to select B&W on my color printer: lp -o ColorMode=Monochrome
It's very difficult to track down how it's mangling your print jobs, when there's a problem and you need to do so. Having to do an old apache style allow,deny reverse polish notation logic to configure who you want to access the printer and admin interface is user-hostile to be sure. And more. But it certainly has made it much easier to go from nothing to up and printing quickly, it's certainly got every feature you could need, and it's certainly reliable. I've done it in the old days, and I certainly don't want to go back to configuring printcaps manually with inscrutable invocation of ghostscript and many other print filters.
Robert McNamara was secretary of defense for JFK and LBJ during the Vietnam War. Before that he was the president of Ford Motor Company. He's the one who introduced the charts that they used to show on TV with the number of enemy killed, clearly showing that the US was winning since the graphs always went up and to the right.
Unfortunately, in the world of emerging risks, it's not sufficient to base decisionmaking merely off of evidence, though that comes with some nuance.

If there is strong evidence that some phenomena cannot occur (e.g., that there's an inherent barrier to deer-to-deer or deer-to-human transmission), then any further human risk is slight. If however there's merely a lack of evidence of various forms of transmission, then we can't be assured that there is no such transmission. (This was the case with airborne-transmission of COVID-19, early in the pandemic, where "no evidence" was broadly interpreted as "not possible", incorrectly as it turned out.)

I'll also note that the lack of symptomatic illness among deer does not mean that the virus doesn't spread and propagate within and from the deer population.
Not really traits per se, but std::any::Any is implemented by most Rust types and is pretty dynamic.
The imagination then continues -- the users of this cryptocurrency-based break-away economy then establish a voluntary tax system, where each user sends crypto to the address/wallet belonging to the respective part of the government they want to see stronger/they agree with their direction -- e.g. firemen, army, roads. The address of an entity e.g. army could further be separated by policies e.g. defence vs foreign missions. It would also be customary to publicly advertise one's own tax contributions source address (which then can be easily expanded to all addresses this address has contributed to). In other words, for the first time in history, we'd have an actual democracy.
If you run Windows on your computer, it's not your computer, and you have to comply with whatever Microsoft says or does.

In this case, Windows 10 will continue to run on your computer perfectly fine. Microsoft are not changing anything about Windows 10, or the way people use Windows 10, or removing any Windows 10 'ownership' that people have right now.

The complaints are that Windows 11 has additional requirements (a modern CPU with a TMP 2.0 chip), and that older computers don't have that. Essentially people are sad that they can't upgrade because their computers don't meet the minimum spec. TMP (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_Platform_Module) is a bit controversial, but you can run Windows without it. Just not Windows 11.

> Maybe we figure out how to control simply and cheaply store CO2 in pellets at the bottom of the ocean. Climate changed solved.

Well… yes, maybe we’ll figure out. But I hope you understand that’s a risky bet ? Climate change CAN be stopped rapidly. But it can’t be reversed (on centuries scale). So each catastrophe frequency increase, each heat record, each impact of the acidification of oceans that happen year after years is here to stay for centuries, at least.

I sincerely hope your CO2 pellets are for today, because if they are not, we will need another plan. And the only working one we have as of today is to stop burning fossil fuels.
