>> cheaper to have multiple launches and assembly on orbit

This has only been done a handful of times outside of Kerbal. Apollo was one of the very few times that two spacecraft launched separately and then continued onto another orbit (as opposed to space stations that are built and stay where they are). Connecting two objects and then blasting them into a transfer orbit ... even Apollo didn't do that. I don't think it has ever been done. It would mean strong docking hardware and deep structural analysis to handle flexing while under even moderate thrust, something far more than aligning a couple docking ports.

Getting a delicate craft to escape velocity would require multiple burns over multiple orbits, necessitating engines that could relight many times. Electric drives could work, but they lack the thrust for a final definitive escape towards an L point.

1. It sounds like you were passing an identity file to --recipients-file. We do support using identity files with --encrypt, but you need to pass it to --identity. We can make the error message more helpful when we notice this is happening.

That is a nice to see after reading several past issues and a closed unmerged PR where innumerable users and (presumably) instance hosts made good faith arguments as to why a hard coded Regex was not only untenable , but antithetical to the ideals of the fediverse — which fell on deaf ears of the developers.

I dunno. I work on OS development. I do that level of programming fairly frequently. It's not hard, even on modern computers. You just have to realize the consumer UI is just a thick layer of icing made from high-fructose corn syrup and high-ratio shortening but underneath that is just regular old computer programming, just like the Vic20. APIs usually exist at the OS level to control all the hardware (on Unix, it's ioctl() and devctl() and similar, and in the kernel itself it's called 'device driver' programming.

If you're interested, you may find it easier than you think to program computers instead of scripting UIs or server farms. A hobby or career in OS development can be satisfying and rewarding.
I hate meetings, unless its an active discussion with all participants. Something like how do we solve problem X and the people invited are the ones responsible for a solution. Brainstorming, looking at code, those are fun meetings.

Here's some anti-meeting ideas:

* If the meetings are via video, audio record them and see if there is a transcription service. Even if the transcription is not great - you already know context of the meeting so its likely you can fill in the gaps. Worst case you can listen at 1.5-2x speed.

* Petition for much shorter meetings.

* Start a culture where saying "Sorry, I missed that" is accepted.

* Ask them to document attendee roles (aka tell my why you invited me): decision maker, consulted, informed. If you are in the "informed" category of attendees you can probably zone out or do other work.

* One of my pet peeves is people reading to me like I'm in kindergarten. Ask them to send their stuff ahead of time if they intend to bore you with a slide deck.

That is not going to change between different machines as far as I know, I might be wrong about this. I made some bad choices (in hindsight) when making this pool for my uses, but it's still going strong many years later. [1]

This current pool (which is now old, 50k+ power on hours on these disk) has survived a motherboard dying randomly and one or two SSD failures with the OS on.

Always just installed a OS on a new SSD and it's been picked up just fine.

[1] I went with RAID-Z2 for 6x3TB WD Reds where I probably should have made mirrored pools or something like it to gain more space? It's been a while since I looked at it. Can't really expand this pool or add more storage without replacing each disk one by one with something bigger.

I could make another pool with new disks but I'd lose another 20% to parity.
GCP increased that recently.
Depends, sure it's not the main quality of a software. But it can also hint at some potential features of the language (unless proven wrong) : Speed, safety, potential interest for longer term. You can have ultra lean software written in Java, ultra fast written in Python or simple to understand / develop to written in Rust or C, modern written in C++98, but it's generally the other way around. So, it's not the first thing to mention when speaking about a program, but interesting nonetheless, an element of context.

I think the idea of the response you got was that such features might ostensibly aid in discoverability.
When it all started in February 2020 that's exactly what Australia was doing, but a minority could not be trusted and broke quarantine and consequently COVID started spreading. At that point the model changed to mandatory quarantine in a government facility. There was broad community support for that change. In an ideal world people would have liked to have stuck with the voluntary approach, but most were realistic enough to see that an untrustworthy minority were wrecking it for everyone.
When the alternative is invasive, Orwellian monitoring and inhumane enforcement by an authoritarian state, I'll take 40% compliance every time.

> The latter conveniently not only handles the separator character, but gives us a way to handle the escape character and newlines for free. CSV, on the other hand, encloses the entire field in double quotes if it contains the separator. If the field contains double quotes, it must also be enclosed in double quotes, and the individual double quotes in the field must themselves be repeated twice to indicate that they don't end the field.

I KNOW how CSV works, for the most part. And my brain still started tuning out/stopped building up the mental model.

I spent 3 years writing the software in my spare time, and launched it on the $20k I had in savings... personally bankrolling the games. When I began the alpha phase, you could still get an "information processing" license to run a casino in Costa Rica that would allow you to host gambling and which the credit card companies tacitly accepted and would do business with. (Those gambling payments to shady jurisdictions are how Paypal got big, and how Elon Musk made his first nine figures). But by 2010/11, all payment processors had abandoned Costa Rica, and there was nowhere in the world offering a license I could come close to affording.

I looked for investment, put together thick books of plans every few months, built 24 games... No one would get behind it, and I couldn't just shelf it, so this was how I launched it without breaking any laws.

A few months in, one existing online casino network offered me $100k to just hand it over to them and then come work for them, but I considered the offer extremely insulting.

When Will All the Workers Return? The question that everyone is asking
I am using pebble time round and garmin fenix,
both have their controls limited to buttons, which in my opinion is superior to a 'touch' interface.

the pebble has a transcription service for replying to messages by talking to the watch, converting the message to text to the receiver. Unfortunately the app development has declined since the hardware support seized. The software is maintained enough to keep usability for my usage.[i]

garmin fenix is obviously a choice for the exercise enthusiasts. however some features are very neat, like support for openstreetmaps[ii] and TOTP support [iii]
The only thing I am worried about with garmin, is that I have a sense that the look their app is turning more and more 'toy-ish' and 'share-friendly' and less functionality focused. I guess this move can make new users feel comfortable, but If I just want to use the watch as a tool, I worry certain features will get more convoluted to use.

Thank you for your reply and clarification. This is quite an interesting topic for me as I've tested and implemented similar setups.

> Does image processing, runs our analytics, [...]

Fair enough, I was strictly going by the diagrams.
From my experience with a somewhat similar setup (HA Loki, HA Prom + Thanos with a MinIO storage backend using Terraform + Ansible and docker) I have to say that the most complex and frustrating part was configuring Loki (this was way before they expanded their documentation, which still isn't great). I'd imagine this would be even more challenging under k8s at least if you stray from the vanilla deployment and/or charts. I agree with your statement regarding Ceph, we use it extensively in production (probably on a much bigger scale). However, I think Ceph, unlike MinIO, just adds unnecessary complexity to your setup.

> Well yes and no, the number of metrics isn't relevant per se, but its cardinality is very relevant [...]

Cardinality is something you should avoid when using Prometheus - for exactly that reason. There are, in my opinion, very few good reasons for dynamic labels (ignoring the baked-in cardinality from a setup like k8s). On first impulse I'd say you're doing metrics wrong but then again, I do not know enough about your use case. Maxing out a single Instance of Prometheus is no easy feat however, especially if your infra isn't that complex and/or big.
I've used Thanos for so long now, how does the Cortex compactor handle range queries? Does it also compact and create additional 5m & 1h resolution metrics? These might help with your larger range queries.

Just out of curiosity, have you had any look at alternatives like Victoriametrics?

> 7k logs per second [...] are nothing

My remark was just regarding the added complexity as this depends solely on the size of your log messages. If you don't need or use the (awesome!) capabilities of Loki + Grafana and just need a place for long-term storage of your logs, a 'simple' rsyslog server will do just fine.

> we collect prometheus metrics for MySQL, PHP-FPM, Varnish [...]

Many (if not all) of these can be handled by Telegraf or Fluentd plus InfluxDB (not that I'd used that myself, I absolutely love Prometheus and its Eco-system). My tongue-in-cheek comment was mostly about the Prometheus instance you deploy on every server just to scrape metrics locally and remote-write them into Cortex. Why not the more usual setup of (one or more) Prometheus instances scraping their targets and writing to Cortex?
You are presenting a false choice though.

FWIW, the actual title is the wordy "Global Fund Results Report Reveals COVID-19 Devastating Impact on HIV, TB and Malaria Programs".

a0-prw? How did you come up with this title summary? I can't find anything in the report which supports it.

> While the global TB burden estimate for 2020 was not available at the time of publishing, the impact of COVID-19 on TB cases and deaths can be potentially devastating over the coming years.

but even this doesn't say that the overall response might have lead to more deaths.

It might be possible to look at the estimated decrease in TB treatments due to COVID, combined with some (unstated) estimate of how many of those would lead to fatalities, and compare that to the number of COVID deaths - not official deaths, but using the same models used to estimate TB deaths.

I couldn't find that analysis in this report.

I did see where the COVID response might have helped in the long-term:

> COVID-19 has catalyzed a multitude of innovations across all three diseases .... Many of these innovations will outlast the crisis and strengthen our fight against HIV, TB and malaria.

so it's not clear that even long-term (multi-decade) numbers will be worse.
Good luck, Max & Co!

This comment is better than the OP article.
I read "do you need a webserver" like "do you need one yourself" and freeloading off someone elses server like with GL pages counts as not having a webserver. Otherwise how else would you serve content?
That's quite informative. Thank you. What is still confusing though, as an end user if I can participate anywhere from any server, I'm not sure what things to consider before picking a server. It doesn't seem to really matter, does it?
And it worked! Reading this and reading HN comments I realize I don't want the SEC involved in this. Crypto is more & more bringing to the front of the conversation about how protection should be the default but having the ability to opt out is the choice individuals should have.

FDIC is a perfect example! There are accounts I know and would expect that but there are times I'm willing to waive that for compensation. Welcome to the land of crypto where nothing is FDIC and the government isn't going to protect anything.

Public opinion matters because it can be the very conversation that gets politicians to challenge the existing laws to be changed.
Nah I'm talking about the US unit of volume being related to itself by powers of 2. 16oz to a pint, 8 pints to a gallon. Everything is just halves and doubles. I feel like that's legitimate and convenient. Can't say the same for the rest of the US system.

I think the US pint is something like 476ml (checked; it's 473), and the UK pint is 20 /slightly/ smaller than US oz instead of 16.
The opposite is true. Hubble is a stripped down version of a Keyhole spy satellite that was already in production. One of the major repairs (replace solar panels) was required because of long duration exposures used in astronomy that are not used in spying.

Remember that Hubble was essentially useless until heroically repaired the first time by Story Musgrave. Many subsequent repairs were required to get the best pictures from it - like the deep field, long duration picture.

>Which is more "democratized": a large language model which can be downloaded, and accessed as a library, [...] or an API, where every invocation is a call that flows through Cohere's servers?

I do understand the point you're trying to make: local autonomy is superior to cloud access mediated by a private commercial entity.

However at this time, we may have a counterintuitive situation where API access is more "democratic" than downloading a huge model.

Based on various reports[1], the GPT-3 model was trained on ~45 terabytes of text corpus (Wikipedia + Web Common Crawl + book texts, etc) and the final runtime model (175 billion parameters) requires ~350 gigabytes of RAM. In that case, the model size is ~1% of the training set.

So "democractize" depends on how ambitious the user is. If you want to use a very large 350GB RAM model, the cloud model with API will be more accessible by the masses than running on local hardware. Last time I looked, an Intel Xeon motherboard has max ram of 128GB so scaling up to 350GB RAM is not going to be cheap or trivial to build.

Let's further extrapolate to a future hypothetical GPT-4 using ~10x multiplier: train on 450 terabytes of text with a model requiring 3.5 terabytes of RAM. How do we make that future huge model accessible to the masses? Probably via a cloud API. Unfortunately, there's an unavoidable hardware capital expense barrier there.

I'm finding all the bellyaching about people saying X was written in rust a lot more annoying than what's being complained about.

But then this comment is 3rd-order bellyaching so feel free to downvote it.
This comment is revealing and truthful. It's almost been 2 years and most people have suffered. They blame and identify a minority for their suffering.

It's one way that if you look at history minorities have also been identified.

Scapegoat behaviour from the crowd is a response to senseless suffering and pain. It actually makes those who scapegoat others feel better and people want to feel better. Why would anyone volunteer to feel worse? Most people don't have empathy for those who scapegoat others but the pandemic is a great way to see this happening at various stages in real time across the world. Some countries don't have any, others more, some loads, some vary according to lockdown severity, others don't.

How can one blame an invisible virus or an abstract political decision when humans traditionally blame each other?

What's the end result if you buy into scapegoating as a personal psychological tactic? We will find out.
> I can't remember the last time I created a website in a professional setting that would work without JS.

A website which does not work without JavaScript is by definition unprofessional. That doesn't apply to web applications, which of course use JavaScript heavily, and need to (at least until WebAssembly is ready for prime time — and even then JavaScript is required as a shim).

The Web is a web of hyper-linked pages, documents. It does not require JavaScript, although of course many pages are improved with the dynamic behaviour enabled by JavaScript.
