From some of the underwhelmed comments here, perhaps the significance of the Burgess Shale is not widely understood.

This book is an amazing read and will explain it, if you're interested: https://www.bookdepository.com/Wonderful-Life-Stephen-Jay-Go...

The Burgess Shale contains fossils from some of the earliest complex multi cellular life. Prior to this, for billions of years life was single cell or collections of single cell organisms. This is the time when complex life first appeared on earth, and the animals that evolved then were startlingly weird. And yes, most of them were very small.

What seems to have happened, is that "one day" (in geological terms) there was nothing but single cell organisms, and essentially "next day" (again, in geological time frames) there was an absolute explosion of complex life/animals.

Most interesting about life at this time is not just the diversity of life, but the diversity of fundamental types of animals. For some reason at this time evolution was free to come up with entirely new types of "animal designs", not just modifications of previously existing body types.

Today, all animals on earth are classified into a very small number of basic types of animal - (perhaps only 5?). but many of the fossils found in the Burgess Shale are so strange that it's not clear that they belong to any known family of animals. This implies that back then there might have been many, many fundamental types of animal, today we are left with only a handful of basics types.

There's even the suggestion that there are creatures that can't really be classified into plant or animal - it's not clear what they are at all.

Forgive me if I get the above wrong - I'm no expert, just an enthusiast. Maybe others can provide more information about the basic types of animal and how this relates to the Burgess Shale.

The Burgess Shale is a window into the absolutely most interesting time of earths history.

An animal the size of a dog might have been the largest animal on earth.
I appreciate this essay and I think your observation is true, broadly speaking. However one thing I find consistently lacking from the “digital minimalism” space is recognition of the things that social media has eliminated or made harder. The pandemic has compounded this problem. It’s not just that using social media for relationships is individually easier—it’s that the network effects eventually make it so that social infrastructure moves online and eliminates non-digital avenues for community. The logistics of IRL meetups are an enormous hurdle compared to instantaneous online communication, so people just…stop doing IRL events. My friends and family lead busy lives and rely on social media to maintain relationships because the alternative social infrastructure simply does not exist. It’s like car ownership—more cars makes city planning revolve around cars, undermines the critical mass for public transit, and makes everything that ISN’T car-based more difficult. It’s not just a matter of personal choice at that point, but of commons.
> One such scenario that I've seen is companies running multi-tenancy services where clients don't share the same databases

That's our situation soon. We're about to start migrating away from a desktop win32 application.

Any good deployment options for such a scenario?

We're talking 4-500 customers with their own db, less than 10k users. On-premise installation must be possible (though "give us a VM" is what we currently do, so that might not be to different).

The consumer primarily cares "what's my expected return, and what's the variance". Operational risk surely affects that, so what's the justification in ignoring it?

> The US government is generally regarded as the worlds most reliable debtor, and thus US government-backed securities (such as FDIC-guaranteed bank deposits), are seen as the lowest attainable risk and called "risk-free". Anyone offering higher interest rates must do something that incurs more risk to get the returns necessary to be able to pay that higher interest rate.

Look at your wording here: "generally regarded". This is the point I'm after: risk assessment is a thing done by individual actors. Yes, they'll outsource much of this to 3rd parties, but at the end of the day, it's a subjective thing. People with political ties with the US may be more likely to view US banking as a low-risk activity; the disenfranchised or the people with weaker US ties might view it as higher risk. It can be simultaneously true that Alice's risk-adjusted return through Lend is more than her risk-adjusted return through traditional banking, while Bob's risk-adjusted return through Lend is less than through traditional banking. That's not necessarily a contradiction.

I don't think it's plausible that the police will routinely rely on arrests to get social media information from random stops, for a bunch of reasons; part of it is that it's unlawful for them to do so, but the bigger part of it is that it's incredibly inefficient and painful for them to do that too.

If the argument is that the police will use this as a pretext to arrest people they want to arrest anyways, well, it's a dumb pretext. They have dozens of pretexts that aren't overtly unlawful; the idea that they're going to haul people in for an offense that they won't be able to articulate when they process you at the station (because it is not in fact a violation of any California statute) seems, to me, far-fetched.

It is problematic that they ask this question. I'm not lobbying for its inclusion. It's bad because people will, as has been pointed out all over the thread (including by my top comment) believe they have to answer. But the response to that problem should be to educate people not to answer the question, not to accept the victimizing framework of the article.

The police, by the way, cannot hold you for 48 hours while looking for something to charge you with. To arrest you, they need probable cause of a specific crime, which they'll need to provide when they book you. They can then charge you with other stuff they dream up while they hold you, but they need something to start with. Again: refusing to answer this question isn't "Obstruction of justice" (which isn't a California offense in the first place); the California "resisting" statutes generally require force or violence on your part, or your interference with their questioning of someone else.
To be fair it was from a self reported survey and they were asked if they ever used FB. If it were me I would probably answer no, even though that is not strictly true. I did use it once in 2010, but I didn't inhale. :)

"Where to get private health insurance?" Google it? I think pretty much every state has a BlueCross insurance company you can call up to ask. You'll probably spend between $500 and $1000/month, per person in your family, depending on state and age.

> However, I can't understand how California is passing this law when they also reduced penalties for knowingly exposing someone to HIV

Why?

Even if we treat California in 2021 and California in 2017 as a single unitary actor here, it is quite possible to think “stealthing” (not currently a felony, maybe arguably included in a misdemeanor but never prosecuted, and not clearly actionable under civil law) is underpunished and ought to at least be made clearly subject to civil liability, while also thinking that knowing exposure to HIV (prior to 2017 explicitly a felony) was overpunished, and ought only to be treated criminally as a misdemeanor, and only when there is intent to infect (the same as knowing exposure to other communicable diseases.)

This drove me nuts! There were a bunch of great series I was into that were simply not available in US even if I purchased a premium cable subscription to BBC America. Another show (programme?) I really enjoyed was Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares. The UK version was much better than the over the top version we got on FOX in the US. I ended up paying for a cheap VPC in the UK that I would SSH into and use it as a SOCKS proxy so I can watch the shows I wanted. I would have gladly given BBC/Channel 4 money if I could.

There may or may not be times when additional public safety measures must be taken: whether it’s for terrorism or illness. We can debate about the merits of taking off shoes at airports or wearing masks until the cows come home.

But one thing that’s clear is that these extraordinary measures, whatever is deemed important enough to exist, ought to be temporary and have an expiration date otherwise it likely will never end.

If it is up to the continuously wrong ruling class, they will never give up their powers.

the specific task that matrix was built for is super generic: syncing encrypted blobs of json in realtime across a decentralised network. you can build pretty much any comms system on top of that; the question is more whether you want to write your own thing from top to bottom or build on an existing protocol. If you want decentralisation or e2ee for free, then Matrix is a nice way to get it. It doesn’t stop you layering other features on top - you just have to know what you’re building on.

How dreadful would life be if Auntie went radio only?

I'm glad someone else has asked this! I spent some time earlier this year thinking about the responsibilities of the BBC and given the diversity of freely available video now, I think they could satisfy most of their cultural and journalistic obligations with radio/podcasts for a fraction of the budget. (BBC1 alone takes up 28% of the BBC budget. Their entire radio budget is less than their annual government grant.)

I say this as someone who loves BBC documentaries but is also trying to be realistic about resources and waning public appetite to pay the license fee.

I see the point I was making flew right over your head.

The point is that I am aware of exactly what the BBC schedules during the year, but none of it is attractive (i.e. either repeats and more repeats, or just generally unattractive content).

But you are posing a similar false dichotomy. k8s isn't some massive intractable beast that needs an army of consultants to run and maintain.
It can run small loads just fine as well.

Anyone can leann k8s basic principles in a day or 2. And managing a cluster is arguably easier than managing a typical bunch of EX2 instances+ALB etc that almost everyone uses.

k8s also has the advantage of ubiquity. If I had to manage a bunch of containers on a cluster with > 10 nodes, I'd pick k8s over swarm/nomad etc.

Your argument is 'k8s isn't a good choice for anyone except Google-scale' and I don't think thats true at all.

I've always wondered: why exactly is ITER so expensive, and slow? Is the engineering required at such a standard that it should takes decades of planning and construction and tens of billions of dollars? The timeline is so dilated (started in 1988, first plasma planned for 2025!) it feels like the kind of project that's expected to be cancelled from the start.

It just doesn't strike me as obvious that reducing the major radius by a few meters would have such a huge impact on cost/timelines.
I worked on a project a while back called Freeview play in the UK which I think works in a similar way to how you described. You can watch live TV over the air or scroll backwards in time along the EPG to stream recorded content over IP.

I think the BBCs childrens content is one of its strongest assets. I don't have any data for it, but I would say most families in the UK with small kids consume a lot of CBBC and CBeebies content. It's much better quality content than children's content on YouTube or Netflix.

Peoples viewing habits are more fragmented and from a wider variety of sources than 10 or 20 years ago and the BBC definitely doesn't have the same mindshare that it used to have when there was only X channels. But, I think when people are looking for some high quality curated content in the sea of 'please like and subscribe' then they will come back to iPlayer - I know I do.

Maybe it's just wishful thinking on my part?

As a developer, I hate k8s, but mostly because my management does not understand difference between developers and devops. They changed our job titles to devops engineers and fired sys admins. I understand k8s is complex for people who specialize in it, try imagining as a developer, you need to setup private vlan ingress. At least, on regular Linux, I know how to setup ip tables or look up 1000s of tutorial.

K8s and devops has destroyed us developers' productivity, confidence, and morale.
Ask HN: What open source projects are you working on and why?
In that case the calculation in the OP seems even more wrong?

>The difference between these two values is the “Implied Value per Share”

By subtracting the two values, you're getting the preferred shares premium, not the "implied value" of the options.

The proper name for "implied value" used in the OP is "intrinsic value"[1]. While it's possible for that to be present, it's probably negligible. At the very least, it's non-trivial to determine, and requires a lot of guesswork regarding the actual current value of the company. 409a valuations exist specifically to prevent giving employees compensation via the intrinsic value of an option (eg. apple issuing options with a strike price of $0.01). Most of the value of the option is in the time value, which is even harder to calculate.

I'd be curious what Netflix is going to cost in another ten years. They're intent on aggressively hiking the price of their plans. Their standard plan, which you need to get HD content, is close to $14 now (in both the US and the UK). Another ten years, I'd bet on $22-$25 or so.

Some of this value proposition question will depend on what the BBC is going to do on their pricing. We can be certain what Netflix is going to do.

>"trajectory of timeline slip is less than one week per week, and if that holds true, the two will eventually rendezvous."

Not mathematically certain. If the timeline slip is a sequence like [1-1/2^k]_{k=1...} = {1/2 week, 3/4 weeks, 7/8 weeks, 15/16 weeks...}, then it's possible the project timeline could diverge forever. (This is just a restatement of Zeno's paradox).
Great question! Search is (I believe) a second-order problem. Once permissionless publishing is solved, extensions can be built onto the core protocol.

In my opinion, indexing and ranking services work much better as ancillary services. The bundling of indexing and ranking with core protocol features is one of my main contentions with the Coinbase-backed "Research Hub" project/company (https://researchhub.org).

If you think about it, journals are important services, but they serve two functions right now:

1. Publication/information & data storage

2. Information indexing and ranking

Really, I think the whole contention about open/closed science is directed in the wrong place. Journals shouldn't be hosting information! They should be indexing and ranking information.

The information should be stored on an open, decentralized substrate where no one needs to go through authentication steps to view it. Then, journals can maintain their closed/open persuasions and offer bundled services and discovery and maintain their clout without really needing to change their core offering.

Also, the git repo link needs to be updated, and there's nothing there right now really, but https://github.com/scipubapp is the right link!
> How can a cop request information in fashion that isn't forceful?

They can explicitly inform you that you are under no obligation to accede to the request and will face no adverse consequences if you choose not to.

Except where explicitly legally mandated to do so, they do not tend to this, specifically because even if it is true, they wish people to perceive and act upon an implicit threat of violence for noncompliance.
Why shouldn't it? It's a complete and total fabrication used to smear a segment of the population.
