The DMCA doesn't grant copyright protection. It's simply a streamlined mechanism for informing a host that they're infringing.

Anyone quoting the RIAA and agreeing with them is probably more concerned with rent-seeking than considering why copyrights exist in the first place and the public interest.

That’s still the truckasaurus ranger that the OP was talking about. If any American manufacturer was serious at capturing the small truck market, they would have imported some Australian utes by now.

Ford will be manufacturing the Maverick, which seems to be about the size of the older Ranger.
TP-Link has to be one of the worst when it comes to privacy and features, but they've been offering 3 triband AC2200 mesh routers at Costco for a while for anywhere between $159 and $199.

If I could get OpenWRT working on something like those I'd be so happy.
Both built-in interfaces of the RPI4 don't support MTU over 1500. That rules out many advanced usage scenarios, I think.
This. And the extra documentation is provided by tests, which are living code and evolve together with the production code.
That should be enough to understand the code.

The top of the file comment is good and well received. At the same time, you could have a wiki page with that info, where you can also have diagrams etc.
I can’t recommend the CM4 over anything with an actual switch built into it with network fabric providing CPU-free packet switching and forwarding. You also honestly don’t want something as important as your actual internet gateway to be some hacky thing that might or might not be supported in a few months or years, unless it's just for experimentation in which case knock yourself out.
Wow, I had no idea. Thanks for the heads up.
I find Google Sheets pretty hard to beat - you can get stock pricing data via the GOOGLEFINANCE function, and I have a simple script that does imap -> sheets for bank and credit card balances. I'm able to keep an up to date view of my net worth without resorting to Mint/Plaid et al. And you can generate whatever charts and graphs you like fairly easily - have access on your phone, etc.

For budgeting, I import csv from my bank/credit cards into google sheets and tag transactions with ~20 different categories - I do this every month or two and it doesn't take that long. It gives me a backwards view of my spending that I can use to influence future spending. I don't run a hard budget really.
The orthodox answer is the lower classes don't want to work. And need to be starved and threatened more.
Youre issues are mostly to do with your device manufacturers, you’re facing driver issues because the manufacturer never even once bothered to test it for linux.

I’ve never had any one of the problems you prescribed because luckily my system parts were all linux compatible.

Don’t blame linux for this, its your manufacturer who didn’t bother with the compatibility.
There’s a trend at the moment called design tokens which standardises all the design constraints for your website, e.g. spacing, colours, fonts, etc. Tailwind and I guess this allows for you to build super consistent websites based off of predefined tokens

This is downstream effects of housing crisis. Rents have finally hit a point where even slaving away at minimum wage is not enough. Why live and work in a place where even after full time you will only further go in debt. How about just move to cheaper area or do go in debt but might as well do something less stressful. Either way financial situation is gonna be same.
Sure, but insects get a pretty direct benefit from their roles in helping flowers reproduce. But when we collect or grow flowers for plants which don't also produce useful fruits (e.g. roses vs orange blossoms), we're enjoying a pretty indirect benefit of aesthetic value. How and why did we become fixated on flowers in the first place? Sure, they're sometimes brightly colored and can have complex forms -- but why do those appeal to us?

> reading programming books is a waste of time

Erm... How about no? Unless you read useless books.
I've happily been running OpenWRT on a $30 Wi-Fi access point (Netgear EX3700) for 3 years now, after I ultimately got tired of the unideal situation with OpenBSD's Wi-Fi support/performance. I run the access point in bridged mode as a wireless VLAN extension for the unmanaged Ethernet switch it's plugged into. Never gone quirky on me despite months of uptime, and has no problems saturating 100 Mbit/s.
Are the incentive structures wrong in the middle layer between supply and demand? Typically, the hiring process is a bureaucratic PITA. In an ideal world the process is like Tesla's. One page. Three detail entry fields to fill. Reply in three days.
Hi party people, this is Sir Dystic, author of the original 1998 Back Orifice. Great to hear all of you reminiscing about my software!

One thing that I did not predict when I released BO: The distribution ZIP contained three files, a readme.txt, the BO server and the BO client. In retrospect, the BO server should probably not have been distributed with the original .EXE extension as a LARGE portion of people apparently downloaded the ZIP, unzipped it and just double clicked on the BO server, immediately infecting themselves.

Keep disturbing shit please.

So let's use the article's figure of 140 TWh of power used per year. Let's compare that to domestic energy usage by country [1]. That's more than Argentina and about half of what the UK uses.

The whole "wasted energy" is just deflection. It almost always isn't. It's a bit like deflection about the energy use being mostly renewable. That really means hydro, because it's generally the cheapest.

But that power use means other capacity (including coal mines) needs to exist. It can mean extra transmission capacity needs to be built. In the case of towns in New York, for example, miners have raised the electricity prices of everyone as municipalities are forced to buy extra capacity on the open market.

Now all of this would be fine if Bitcoin actually provided value commensurate with that energy consumption. It just doesn't. It's not a currency. It'll never be a currency. It's an asset and any uses thus far have been to evade the laws in various countries.

> That’s for a network with 100+ million estimated users.

100 million HODLers. Very rarely do people use Bitcoins to make purchases. When they do, over 99% of them do it through a centralized authority. The centralized authority immediate converts the Bitcoin to fiat currency, which it pays to the seller, so you aren't even really avoiding any inflationary risk. If hyperinflation of the world's reserve currencies actually does occur, there is no guarantee that Bitcoin's valuation will match inflation.

All that we're left with is a vehicle of speculation, which at best provides zero sum utility. It's actually negative sum because losing money is worse than gaining the same amount of money. Christmas lights may also people a waste of electricity, but at least everyone who sets them up presumably enjoys them or at least is doing so for someone else's enjoyment.
> In many cases it’s that people got comfortable being paid a decent amount to not work

Americans got a paltry few thousand dollars. So you certainly agree that if a single payment amounts to more than their shit job then that shit job isn't paying enough.
Why is this on Hacker News?

The EFF is a liberal shell. They cheered when Trump's social media accounts were muffled. Now they are against the Texas abortion law.

I suppose this is why almost none of the news articles I found about the .com site being deplatformed actually mentioned its name or URL. I personally believe that kind of information control ("we're not going to tell you the site's name") is fine for any individual news organization, or any given hosting company or message board moderator to make. But when it seems to be a widely agreed-upon decision to censor something, I think it's corrosive to free speech and it lowers trust in journalism. I don't think "we" trying to keep the visibility of a site low is actually going to stop people who want to snitch on their neighbors from doing so; and most people going to that site are probably going as if to a freak show, to look at a donkey with two heads. It's worth noting that the .net site's ranking probably has a lot to do with the fact that no mainstream press is willing to link to the .com site. On principle, I think the press should treat adults as adults, not a mob to be managed and lied to; that's exactly why so many people now distrust basic public health information. They see the source as lying and suppressing information (and they're not entirely wrong). But given the idiocies that go viral these days I can see why editorial boards make the decisions they do.

Hopefully most people would recoil in horror at seeing a form to snitch on your friends and family. The .net and .com site should both be free to compete in the marketplace of ideas.
Adults would benefit from that also.

I thought a general rule was to use sans-serif fonts on electronic devices and serif fonts in print, because they are repsectively easier on the eye?

This site - and other similar "web typography" sites - seems to immediately fall foul of that by using serif fonts. In my opinion this makes them less comfortable to read.
this thread is relevant to my interests.
I personally strive for code that can be read as a sentence, especially in complicated sections of code.

This sometimes leads to weird intermediate variables which might look superfluous, e.g. intermediates like:

foo_has_at_least_1 = len(foo) >= 1

(not a great example, usually it’s a bit more semantics. than that) but later code using those intermediates reads as english,
which can reduce cognitive load when reading the code and obviate comments, and preconditions are more readily verified.

It’s literate programming and I prefer that to long comment blocks like those in some
of the examples. All that said, it can be hard to get coworkers into such a habit, especially those who feel brevity and abbreviation is a virtue.

Big orders require pre-payment. If no stock is available the customer should expect a wait. Even a pizza shop will require a credit card for 20 pizzas.

If someone is selling 1 million dollars worth of widgets and the buyer is unknown prepayment is required. If known and a valid purchase order is signed the customer usually has net30/60 to pay if they don't there might be a lawsuit or a black mark on their credit file with collectors calling.

Does it ever make sense to pay hundreds to win that 2 dollars back? Your employees waste more when meals don't turn out perfect. The cost of food to the restaurant includes the wasted food (usually from employee mistakes) and those are reflected in the prices.
I am also learning SPARK 2014, a subset of Ada, that is complex, but for me not too complicated. I find Rust complex and complicated, maybe others don't. I will probably stick with SPARK 2014 for my high integrity experiments with hardware and controls. I use C to do a lot of other prototyping and quick apps. My thought is that I will wait for Rust to mature more, but I think it is always going to be complicated and suit the applications it was created for, and I may never have a need for it, or to learn it sufficiently to be able to switch to it.

> The new platform has _explicit+ support for running other operating systems.

Technically, you are right, and I should have said "nearly fully locked down", instead of "completely". Not having a locked bootloader gives Apple enough deniability for PR to claim the M1 isn't a locked system, even though it only supports macOS (the only full featured desktop available for it) and is just one step away from becoming like iPhones / iPad.

If you are going to cite the reverse engineering effort of running Linux and *BSD on the M1, remember that they are crippled versions of their full featured desktop versions. And it will remain crippled for a long time - without the hardware reference literature or drivers for other OSes (closed or open source) from Apple, Apple has placed enough technical hurdles to ensure that only macOS will run on it for the for seeable future.

That is why I believe the M1 is as good as a locked down system and gravely compromises our computing freedom.
There are references around to "Inner Council Work", including a suggested exercise where you walk some path [in your mind] to a cabin, where at a table you sit with representations of you at different ages. In this exercise, you converse with whichever age seems to have something to say.

Not at all. Passing using the oncoming lane is difficult, but everything else is doable. Mail trucks in the US are right-hand drive so they can deliver to road-side boxes through the drivers window.
I'm in Australia right now, and they very much have NOT gotten rid of it. Delta has proven impossible to eradicate, and in fact the leaders of both NSW and Vic (where the two outbreaks are) have given up and said that Covid 0 is no longer possible. More than half the country is in severe lockdown, unable to go more than 5 km from their home.

NZ too are in the middle of another outbreak and using severe lockdowns isn't making it go away.

And even still, if Australia somehow did manage to keep a lid on it - anyone that wants to leave the country is surely going to go to a place that has much higher rates, and they'll likely get it. Then they want to come back into Australia - will there be the mandatory 2 week quarantine forever? (I paid $3k a few months ago).

It's simply not a viable long term future.

I think the message is true but misses a major point: yes, using existing hardware, we generally have some buffer though the simple fact of delaying replacement or new purchases. Equipment can recirculate (second-hand) and be maintained.

What is being missed are the larger societal needs for new hardware. If you build infrastructure (new public transport line, factory, power plant, communications network, etc) you need new components, lots of them.

The impact of shortages gets projects delayed or cancelled due to lack of availability of components or ballooning costs. It's also not just electronics, it's also shipping and raw materials costs that are impacted.

And "performance" here isn't some single digit percentage niggling either, it's something like a 4x difference. Enough to genuinely be a pretty big deal for any usage beyond minimal and occasional "get some data off this fs once" type of usage. Of course really the answer is that Microsoft should just adopt Lundman's efforts and add native OpenZFS support to Windows but in the mean time... ;).
I wonder, if DSA works correctly on all platforms in scenarios where MTU > 1500 is needed and/or encapsulations like Batman. Because both are problematic at least on ramips/mt7621 and RTL8380 for me. Better but still not not right with the current 5.10 testing kernel in master. Maybe related to the bug mentioned here: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/4493

I was hoping, that 21.02.0 would still include that one.

In any case, many thanks for all the hard work to everybody involved!

America really is a very strange place.
The interstate highway system is actually an interesting example, because US did have a bunch of private rail and trams, before the govt built the highways, subsidized suburbs and made it all much less relevant. Apparently building the cities around driving is now considered to have been the wrong choice. It's good that we know exactly what the right choice is /this/ time around, so we just need tons of taxpayer money to shove it thru ;) (for the record, I do not support either war or transit spending).
I would defend that claim, though agree that the ‘bullying’ is not helpful. Vaccines are the only solution so far that has been shown to substantially reduce individual risk, or show potential to solve the pandemic. Other measures are beneficial too, but I don’t believe any other solution has looked promising yet at getting to the end, only at dealing with the interim. Even herd immunity via infection is currently a worse (slower and more expensive) option. So every normal adult is personally benefited from vaccination. What’s weird about teaching people science?

The central part of the comment was this:

> It just means the buffer is somewhere other than where you assume it's necessary.

The rest was an example of one place you might see such a buffer. In practice, there are many such buffers, of varying capacity and time duration. For transportation, there’s the households who have 3 cars but could get by with only 2: they’ll sell their extra car once the price makes it worth their while. There’s the cyclist who’d like to have a car for out-of-city trips, but decides to hold off until inventory catches up (a demand-side buffer, if you will). Many more “buffers” could be imagined.

And, well, the market libertarian might feel really satisfied over the last year of commodity prices. Sure, supply constricted and prices rose, but at no point did we see any mass crises where people became stranded somewhere because they had no transportation option. For the vast majority of people, they just had to make convenience/cost tradeoffs that were a little bit different than before.
> The case of the missing girls:

One of the reasons they reason they were not as critical on this is because it is fucking stupid (plus racist) to think the Chinese were aborting and infanticideing females.

It's hard to kill a baby, even if you are Chinese.

It's expensive to sex a baby in a country where they are not even taking the right supplements worth ~$10 over a year to not fuck the kids IQ In Utero.

This is a old article and Freakonomics were pushing in the right direction according to new research.

Ideas around lesser medical care for females are partially true, medical care is sexed, this goes all the way to the first world (see breast cancer vs prostate cancer and taxes around female hygiene)

But solving poverty approximately equalises this, as China has done.

These ideas were old (again old article) and cutting edge at the time, breaking the conventional, probably racist theory. Infanticide is an easy word to say, spell it out, you think the Chinese mothers and fathers cut their baby's throats? Or going to abortion, technological whizzes that sexed their babies? Why so many down syndrome kids then? In the West where we abort Downers we considered China to be to low on these abortions until at least the 2010's

Freakonomics was cutting edge for it's time around this.

And for it's time I mean statistics has changed since then. Fuck me, try living in the 90's with statistics and the fucking bullshit then. Gen Z's and your avocado and statistics. Please stop being so weak minded.
