I wrote a terminal emulator in Forth on my Apple ][ that had different sounding key clicks for different classes of keys. Upper and lower case letters had different tones, and the sequence of digits had rising tones, and certain control characters like return and backspace and escape and punctuation and space all had their own unique sounds, so you could hear what you were typing and know that you typed the right keys when you were typing ahead quickly on a slow 300 baud ARPA TIP connection.

Also each time it beeped the bell it would start at a higher and higher tone rising to a fixed pitch, each starting higher and lasting less time than the last, so a lot of bells in a row would ramp up in tone and shorten out to a high buzz, so they weren't so annoying. Then it would decay back down after you didn't receive any bells for a few seconds. It was inspired by the way of an excited guinea pig squeals for lettuce.

Also, the underline cursor floated up and down and up and down in the character cell, so it was very easy to see where it was, and it drew a wavy line in the phosphor as it moved across the screen!

I think the idea that subscription based monetization would turn out better is wishful thinking. What will prevent people from making channels of this horrible videos and get paying customers? Or what makes you think people will pay for educational videos more?

People subscribe to reality TV channels and plenty of guilty pleasures. OnlyFans is booming and so forth.

You may be correct, but I would love to see anything besides our wishful thinking that this would necessarily breed better content.

Not true. Vaccinated and previously infected people are much less likely to be reinfected than unvaccinated previously infected. Here is a recent study:

https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2021/s0806-vaccination-pr...

Reinfection was twice as likely among unvaccinated previously infected. The more recent data includes the effects of the delta variant. So, the risk of Covid is much higher and the risk of adverse effects are approximately zero for getting the vaccine.

Note that I am not commenting on vaccine prioritization and allocation, just the assertion of the post that vaccination has no benefit to previously infected people.
> I'm having trouble thinking of when it's not clear.

I phrased that badly.

Past costs are always sunk. What's often not clear is whether the costs have yielded a positive return or a loss.

If you bought bitcoin at $50K, and the price today is $30K, your investment has yielded a loss.

If you bought Tesla at $100 and the price today is $700, your investment has yielded a profit.

If you've trained 7 years for the 100m freestyle, and today you're ranked fifth in the world, your training investment has gotten you to fifth in the world. Beyond that, it's difficult to assess the value.

What are your aims? What are your prospects?

Let's say your aim is to win an Olympic medal.

Should you train for another year in your quest to win an Olympic medal?

If you train for another year, will you win an Olympic medal?

The only certainty is that if you stop training, you won't win anything, and your investment has been in vain. Your costs are sunk with no return.

It's that certainty of failure by quitting, vs the uncertain but non-zero prospects of winning if you carry on and invest more, that nudges you towards the possibility of sunken costs fallacy i.e. throwing good money or time after bad, even past the point of no return.

> Does Helm have access to my emails?

> The architecture of the system has been designed so that it's not possible for Helm to access your emails. Email senders now support sending emails over an encrypted SSL/TLS channel where the email is only decrypted once it reaches your personal email server. Helm is not able to decode these emails because we don't have access to the encryption key. In the limited situations where the sender's email server doesn't send the email to you over SSL/TLS, Helm does not log or store these messages and therefore we are still not able to access them.

SSL/TLS is transport security, and email is inherently multi-hop, so this reads as bogus to me: each hop might use SSL/TLS but that doesn't mean the message content or metadata is end-to-end encrypted until it gets to my Helm server.

Do the customers have the right to republish the source? Under the GPL (I checked GPLv3) I don't think they do, but this section (my emphasis) is unclear to me:

> You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these ways...

Is "under the terms of this License" a clarifying clause that narrows down exactly which "Corresponding Source" we are talking about? That doesn't seem necessary given that "Corresponding Source" is already well defined. Alternatively, does it mean that you must convey the Corresponding Source and grant a GPLv3 license to the conveyees for that source? If so, it could be written more clearly.

If my second interpretation is correct, surely it doesn't matter much that the company has a slightly user-unfriendly policy to providing their source code - someone will just mirror the code on Github anyway.
Compared with the vast proliferation of “not vaxxed? hope you die” posts on major social media, and a propaganda[0] machine pushing “get vax or you’re bad”, and governments pushing “get vaxxed or get blocked from society” legislation, seems a couple threads with a few dozen “hey, there’s other inoculation too” isn’t a balance.

It can be considered irrational thinking given the scientifically documented rarity of adverse reactions to the vaccines thus far.

It is lottery-ticket thinking but with a negative outcome imagined in place of a positive one.

Just like with lottery tickets, you have to be in to win. But it is overwhelmingly unlikely that you will win, and it is overwhelmingly unlikely you will have an adverse reaction to the vaccine.

It's weird to see someone argue that this is "not irrational thinking" on numerically literate HN.
OK, thanks for your reply. JFYI It's not what you think that will make or break your business; it's what your potential customers think, that matters.

>risk of Covid is much higher and the risk of adverse effects are approximately zero for getting the vaccine.

Where is your data for this?

What is the risk of a naturally immune person catching Covid, and being either a)symptomatic, b)hospitalized, or c)killed?

How does this risk compare to the risk of a serious adverse event or long-term consequence such as autoimmune disease from the vaccine in a healthy young man?

Perhaps, as is a common argument from the vaccine-hesitant, we should wait for more scientific data before concluding that previous infection provides more protection than the vaccine? :)

All the features you mention are already addressed in the original post as planned future developments. Knowing that they are planned makes me put my trust more in Ente than in Mega (which I use as an alternative to Dropbox and am very satisfied with). Not that there’s anything wrong with confirming interest in their planned features; I’m just pointing Ente’s plans out for anyone who scrolls right to the comments.

I just don't know that people really understand that his view of finance is biblical based rather than empirical based and advice is extremely one sized fits all.

At the same time it is the kick in the ass that already well-to-do-people with too many Lexusus who are deep in debt probably need. People who don't have much income? Not sure what they are going to get from Ramsey other than shame. These people have a cash flow problem, they don't need to called a moron.

For me, the best thing I ever did in my life was take out loans to live while in college so that I could devote 100% of my time to my studies. It's the only way I would be able to graduate, and I'm glad I didn't worship the altar of Dave Ramsey at the time (or even know who he was) because I really didn't need extra stress or guilt, I put enough on myself. Dave just thinks people like me don't exist - people who take out debt reluctantly after cost-benefit analysis, pay it back ASAP, and who are better off for it.

Of course, God says debt is bad, so Ramsey doesn't care if I exist.
The commenter stated that the vaccine had no benefit to previously infected. That is not true. From the article you reference:

"The researchers also found that people who had SARS-CoV-2 previously and received one dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine were more highly protected against reinfection than those who once had the virus and were still unvaccinated."
It's a factor, not a major factor.

Further on in the document, it states:

> Experts maintain that, in the case of males, being sexually abused in childhood is an important risk factor for committing sexual assault later on in life, but that it is not the only risk factor that plays a role in the perpetration of sexual assault.
> how effective is The Agile Manifesto in practice?

That's the rub. I feel as if it works extremely well, in my own work, but I currently work mostly alone (I am part of a loosely-coupled team, but I completely "own" my own part of the project).

Getting it to work for a team, is not so easy.

Organizations run on Process (note the capital "P"). I feel as if true Agile is something that we need to personally inculcate into our own lives, as Practice, Habit and Understanding. We need to be constantly working within our methodology, which, in my case, is equal parts Habit, and Experience. I don't think it's something that can be taught. It needs to be learned. The reason that I separate these two words that seem to mean the same thing, is that "teaching," is an outward-facing practice, while "learning" is an inward-facing one. I feel that we must -each and every one of us- make the effort to learn how to code as a craft. It starts within each of us, and that's not something that can be foisted upon anyone, or dictated with process. We also need to completely understand our craft, and the work we do. It should not be simple rote. Habit and rote are two different things.

There's no "buzzwordy" or consultant-ready answer to that.

TL;DR: It's complicated.
Obscurity is NOT security. The strongest encryption algorithms are open sourced and transparent. This is known in InfoSec. It's the math that makes something secure, by proving the search space is unfeasible.

> AIPs are a big competitor to replace diesel submarines

AIP is a supplementary system used by diesel submarines, not a replacement for them. They don't have sufficient power for anything but slow quiet cruising. AIP equipped subs will retain diesel generators for faster sprints, and greater endurance while transiting on the surface or via snorkel.

The two basic technologies for AIP are fuel cells and sterling engines. Both are deployed successfully at the moment. The video above is a neat summary of a 2nd generation fuel cell system that uses an onboard reformer to generate H2 from diesel, avoiding the downsides of H2 storage.
what would true agency actually look like? would the team "owning" the system get to capture the bulk of revenue or value the system produces -- so they could decide if they wanted to stack on another feature that might improve revenue by blah percent versus spend the quarter trying to stabilise the system to reduce the number of false-positive alerts or avoidable outages.

Fowler's article that made the most impact on me is the one about Monolith First, and how you shouldn't start with a complex distributed architecture, even if you're confident you'll need it in the future.

https://martinfowler.com/bliki/MonolithFirst.html

Fowler shares ideas of architecture, but in a nuanced way, and clearly states when it might be appropriate, and what are the costs and complexities involved.

The problem in your case seems to be more of "Architecture Astronauts".

As field support engineer for a large company I can relate to what the author is exposing... I work with LED screen installations and most of the times I can detect a bad installation issue way ahead of any failure because this screens have some High Voltage capacitors that may produce sound if there is something wrong with the power quality, once I detected harmonics way ahead of the initial test, because of that we saved like 2 o 3 days of installation
The anti-vax crowd is currently taking horse deworming paste rather than get vaccinated. Saying that they won’t listen rational arguments about vaccine safety isn’t a huge leap. At this point it’s basically self evident.

> For some people, it’s not so much the known risks that have them worried as the unknown. They ask, What if the mRNA vaccines alter our DNA, threatening our health far in the future? Will they affect our bodies in other, as yet undiscovered, ways? After all, some say, this is brand-new technology, and the F.D.A. has only fully approved the Pfizer vaccine.

> As it turns out, though, mRNA technology isn’t especially new. Scientists have been developing it since the nineteen-nineties.

A lot of the anti-vaxxer claims about mRNA vaccines are incredulous, but this common approach to dismissing concerns about them is a bit disingenuous and not very convincing.

Yes, mRNA technology has been in development for decades. So what? We went from having 0 mRNA vaccines in use to injecting hundreds of millions of people around the world with them all at once.

The sales pitch: if enough people get vaccinated, we'll stop the spread of the virus and life can return to normal.

The reality: people fully vaccinated less than a year ago are becoming infected, with the data showing clearly in the case of Delta that vaccinated people have similar viral loads to unvaccinated people and can spread the virus to others too. Now we're being told that we'll have to have booster shots, perhaps as soon as every 5-6 months, something that we don't do for any other disease.

I'm fully vaccinated with Pfizer and not particularly concerned about the risk of undiscovered long-term side effects, but to pretend that what we're doing really isn't novel is far from convincing and I think arguments along these lines are having the opposite of the intended effect.
Would that mean that, hypothetically, a bad actor could convince the manufacturer to place sensitive data about you in inaccessible parts of the disk? So short of destroying it completely, a computer (especially one where permanent storage is soldered in) could be assumed to contain anything that was stored on it even once?

Well when the government will become very interested in hoarding old electronics and registering every facility able to destroy them, we should become suspicious.

I would be very relieved to be proven paranoid.
Depends on the discarding method.

I format them, and gift to some people around here who could make a good use of them (friends, neighbors). Usually, I replace disks because I need more storage, the old ones have quite a few years of life still left. These people know me, getting good hardware for free, and I'm reasonably confident they won't sell them to digital forensic experts on e-bay.
Either way, it would be very useful for inferring the properties of extrasolar planets in that size range.
