When I hear things like this, I'm reminded of the Dr. Seuss story, "Yertle the Turtle".

The whole system is built on the lowest rung holding the most stress without so much as a burp. When that burp inevitably comes, the whole thing could come crashing down.
I'm just a bit more "generally" curious. Is `git` being the _only_ DVCS a good thing? Not to say that `hg` or `darcs` don't exist, just that the hub on top of git has pushed us in a singular direction.

I would like to see, at least academically, something more.
I use Revolut with a disposable virtual card for sites I don't trust. So I can immediately delete the card.
Any confluence like tool (wiki/sharepoint) is only as good as the people who populate, edit, and curate it. The tool itself (confluence) is generally not a problem, the problem is that documents go stale and/or are badly organized. You can't really automate yourself out of that problem. Just because any given document hasn't been touched in months or years doesn't mean it's actually out of date.

I remember for about 5 seconds in late 90s early naughts there was talk of this role of 'information architect', a sort of a digital corporate librarian. I imagine such a role should still exist, but who has the headcount?
Joining the bandwagon of happy remarkable users. It's the only device I own that respect my attention and focus. I use it mainly to take notes of (paper) books I read and to send web articles to it via its awesome browser extension.
I strongly recommend the essay of carribean posthumanist (avant la lettre) Sylvia Wynter "the cerrmony must be found" if you are interested in some of the consequences in philosophy (or rather theory since there is a tendency to universalisation as put forward in the article here) in the cybernetic episteme.

This must be what they will be doing once they are farther along with the Dojo supercomputer. 100%
Yep! I use that with my personal 1password. And honestly, that's probably the way we'll go eventually, but right now we're a super tiny startup - setting up a team 1password and getting every new engineer onboarded seems like a hassle. Even if it's only a few hours of work, tfa.one seems like it's a few minutes of work. For non-sensitive accounts (which is the main pain point I have at the moment), a 1-step tool is awesome. :)
That's because you construe competition purely in terms of dominance or something like that. But friendly competition can also be a means of bringing out your best. In other words, two friends can engage in friendly competition for mutual benefit.
The poor, in democracy, will vote for their interests. So, unless you abandon democracy, you won't get the poor to vote carbon taxes.

How about we start by putting a $1000/flight tax? Seems only fair that the rich, mobile class start reducing their emissions. After all, it's actually the upper classes that consume (by far) energy in gross terms.
I always love summaries that are publicly posted (like this one, no matter how detailed), and I only dislike the (relatively rare) ones that are repackaged as "new" books on Amazon and then resold at a profit (it feels bad in general, but especially since I already work pretty hard to make my books as short as possible).

My feeling has always been that if a book can be sufficiently summarized in a blog post, then it should be a blog post ;). And if someone reads the summary and fully "gets it," they probably would have been frustrated by the full book, since they probably already had a lot of the foundational knowledge in place. So it's better if they don't buy it in the first place. And different people will read the summary, want the extra detail, and grab the full book, which is great too.

Even with piracy of the full book (which is currently #1 on google for various fairly guessable searches), I still feel that it ends up coming back to me via word of mouth. Piracy probably hurts "bad" books that are propped up by PR, but it definitely helps books that people find useful, since they end up recommending it to other folks who may pay.
Is the mempool logged? Is it possible to tell if it was a mistake or if they skipped the mempool?
For what it's worth, I've never done it but I also reacted "er, surely the bag's going to dissolve".
I read the slides you posted - they seem quite reasonable in intent.

why though do you take a jab at declaration as being a worse model - it seems like a valid implementation of the general operator idea.
Well, if the gas doesn't exist and can't be produced in the first place then it hardly matters whether Nord Stream 2 is up and running does it? The only reason the non-operation of Nord Stream 2 would matter is if Russia had gas available but was constrained in getting it to Europe by pipeline capacity, which they're not - there's an unusual amount of capacity just going unused. Yet they've been dropping not-so-subtle hints that the problem would just go away if Europe approved Nord Stream 2. The only way for that to work is if Russia could sell Europe gas but intentionally chose not to for geopolitical leverage reasons.
>I think what's happened here is that you don't understand the difference between TLS, a network protocol, and the Web PKI, a Public Key Infrastructure and so you've sort of muddled both together, which is revealing on its own.

I understand the difference, and the condescending snark is not appreciated. I don't think the difference is very important in this case.

It's also revealing, perhaps, that you don't understand that the "Web PKI" is used far and wide in domains outside of the web.

>Moxie's strategy works and yours didn't, and you're here telling everybody you don't agree but reality doesn't care whether you agree with it or not.

Oh, bugger off. The only group who has even made a serious attempt to do it properly is Matrix and one "meh" implementation does not damn an entire design.
Yes there would have been a window for that, if you could spin up insane hash power in minutes. However ethereum blocks happen on average every 13.5 seconds and this TX is now 1,558 blocks in the past, it's not likely now.
I'd say a single neuron should be understandable given that the network effects DO NOT have sufficient impact.

Given that "sufficient impact", then the "system understanding itself" issue arises.

However, if you believe the neuron is the same as the neuron in the worm, then the concept of how it works should (by my best guess and nothing else) be adequately simple for human understanding.

There's a fair bit that is well understood, specifically the chemical processes that drive the signals (and that are present in many other types of cells), and there are mathematical models that have been tested in-vivo and reasonably replicate some dynamics (for example the Hodgkin-Huxley model). But neurons are indeed complicated, and there are a lot of them...
I absolutely think the term gets overused and I think the term “soft-bricked” is even more peculiar.

But given the extent of the required work to recover the device here (actual hardware work, non-trivial and not for a layperson) then I think it’s appropriate.

Not a hill I’m going to die on but it does kind of bother me when someone describes their device as bricked and all they need to do is plug it in and run some kind of simple restore utility or otherwise.
thank you for the additional information
That makes no sense to me. I would think you'd impose a carbon tax or something and let the consumer prices sort themselves out.
It is generally true, but yes; automatic line ending conversion is an exception. You can turn it off with `git config --global core.autocrlf false`, though be aware that can cause issues if you have developers on different operating systems creating and committing files with different line endings.
How hard is it to make consistent search? I can accept no partial matching, even if I preferred to have one. But at the same time there is some fuzzy logic matching words with entirely different meanings, when in tech I often need want to search for very specific word. Not some mangled version of it... Who is these products made for again exactly?
Society will adjust but it won’t be an easy adjustment. People will need to accept each other and practice more tolerance and love. Cancel culture and it’s practitioners must be cancelled to get there.
You obviously have some patience for it because you spent the time to make some pretty good arguments as to why you can unbrick something. I think you have me convinced.
> I remember an episode of Cosmos mentioned how we used to have gods for every little thing like rivers and trees, then as they were unserstood the remaining gods grew fewer and more abstract.

That's a very convenient, attractive model, but not really even remotely accurate as a description of the evolution of religious belief.

What actually happened in a lot of the world is that people who called the “gods of every little thing” something else (“guardian angels”, “patron saints”) imposed their religious language on other people by force (or just exterminated them outright).
if (x)
{
SomeMethod(paramater1,
paramater2,

}

You simply should not write this code. It's unclear, and performs nonsense indentation. You could do:

if (x)
{
SomeMethod(
paramater1,
paramater2,
parameter3
);
}

If you need your function to use line breaks.
Just get lucky with the timing :) Like a QTE but without the prompt, that was the main problem. But as programming was done in parts (firmware, PPM (like Win32 resources), content (FAT32 image of storage) it depended on which part was corrupted.

Edit: some people had success on 50th attempt[1], talk about perseverance ;)

I wonder how does that prevent NSA and CIA level intercepting and tampering? NSA and CIA can't work with Apple to get their hardware to be signed as well? I don't believe it.

How well does text conversion work for you? Including the search function? It works poorly for my colleagues.

Does it have the option to straighten lines? Say that I draw a box, will it make it square or a circle round?

I haven't done it yet myself, but I've read it's fairly easy to install KOReader on the Remarkable 2 to provide a better ereader experience. Though when using this software, you wouldn't be able to mark up the text or add notes in the 'remarkable' way.
Well...that's still just a type. I never found any reason to name it specially myself, even when I was thinking of similar things that are being described in the article (though not about Ruby, but rather about Lisp-y languages). Maybe I'm a bit influenced by the fact that there isn't such thing as "a type that you cannot express in the domain language" if you have SATISFIES (http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/t_sati...), but still - a compiler can certainly synthesize "ad-hoc", unnamed types and perform reasoning with them.
The "chat with agent" option worked for me when I unsubscribed from nytimes a few months ago. They kept asking me questions and I kept responding "unsubscribe please" over and over again until they did it. It took maybe 5 minutes.

Not a good experience.
Cassandra, and by extension Scylla, are commonly used for workloads you probably wouldn't use MongoDB for at any scale. The primary strength is the ability to reliably scale-out the landing of live data. It supports writing more complex data models than logging systems but is slower and more limited for querying complex data models than e.g. an RDBMS.

Cassandra is commonly used as a sink for complex service telemetry e.g. mobile data from the carrier perspective.
Pinball Dreams and Pinball Fantasies were my favourite pinballs games on Amiga (and then Psycho Pinball on PC). I know that nowadays e.g. Pinball FX3 provides so many bells and whistles and boards... but I often find all these boards to be kind of overloaded and so busy with animations, sounds and flashing lights... Maybe it is like with football games - I understand that FIFA or PES are much more complete games but the arcade charm of Sensible Soccer makes it a winner for me.

This or just a nostalgia factor...
Could you elaborate a bit more on your objections?
Two use-cases come to mind:

a) Short series' of shell commands in package.json

b) Longform content

I disagree that JSON is rarely hand-authored. You could argue it isn't the best medium for these usecases, but it definitely gets used for them either way

The worlds poorest use far less energy than the worlds wealthiest. If we want a world where the worlds poorest can rise, energy policy needs to be softer on the poor, and the richest will have to pay more of the cost. The rich countries rose to the top on the back of historically cheap energy, to some extent.

I hate that diagram. It looks like gibberish to anyone who hasn’t gone through a training to understand it, and even this it still looks like gibberish.

SAFe is about addressing the communication problems that happen as an organization grows. You’re looking at the diagram for everything that would be applied to a very large organization.

SAFe itself has a goal of using 50-150 person “release trains” that are essentially independent units. That’s the core of what’s going on.

Everything outside of that is about managing communication between other “trains”. In the diagram that you’re looking at, the bottom 2 sections where the CD Pipeline sits is where most developers will experience SAFe and you’ll find that it simply advocates for DevOps best practices.

I completely understand how everything else looks like a mess. It’s a lot to digest.

You are 100% correct that if a position is ever reached where everything has returned to the initial position, white must have the move.

But note that I asked if white has the move any time a position occurs where everything is in its initial position, and so we must also consider the initial position before any move has made.

When the pieces are in their initial positions before the first move has made, does white have the move? You would think so, but actually that is not the case. Nor does black have the move.

The FIDE Laws of Chess define having the move thusly:

> The game of chess is played between two opponents who move their pieces alternately on a square board called a ‘chessboard’. The player with the white pieces commences the game. A player is said to ‘have the move’, when his opponent’s move has been ‘made’.

Nobody has the move until while makes the first move, then black has the move.

This stupid way FIDE defines having the move can show up in another situation. Consider this game:

1. Nf3 Nf6
2. Ng1 Ng8
3. Nf3 Nf6
4. Ng1 Ng8

The initial position has now occurred 3 times (at the start, after move 2, and after move 4). Can white claim a draw by threefold repetition? Could black have claimed a draw before making 4. ...Ng8 by writing it on their scoresheet and informing the arbiter?

With the way FIDE defines having the move, the answer should be no. This is not yet threefold repetition. Part of FIDE's definition of a repeated position is that the same player has the move in both, and so the positions after move 2 and move 4 are not repetitions of the position at the start because white has the move in the later two but no one had the move in the former.
I’ve seen some people keep the tank only partially full because it improves performance (the car will be more efficient if it is lighter and might eg handle better too, especially if it is a small car) though I don’t really buy that argument.

But if you supposed that everyone drove normally until their tank was 1/8 full then refuelled to the top, the average tank would be 7/16 full so if lots of people refuel all at once that is 9/16 times a lot of fuel tanks.
This seems out of order to me. Shouldn't the federal government first legalize Cannabis and then provide guidance on taxation?

What answers do you want? The "assisting people with cybercrimes" shit you brought up was already covered in Manning's trial. Manning asked Assange to crack a generic Windows account so she could theoretically access data she already had access to more secretly.

Assange said he'd try. The only answer unknown is whether he did try, and I doubt the US has any evidence showing that he did. That's it.

The trurth to all his charges is basically already out there.

Just got a call from the IRS, apparently they have outsourced their enforcement to call centers in India, they asked me to purchase Apple gift cards in order to pay what they claimed was a fine I owed.

I thought it a little odd...

The IRS also accepts Google Play cards.

There is an enormous amount of Internet fraud in India, and coming out of India. Until the country learns to police itself, I have no sympathy for those who claim SaaS subscription collections otherwise is a "problem."

As a parent, I'd just like to say that having children is easy. Being a decent parent, however, is very difficult!

Having babies alone doesn't make a tremendous difference. Raising children well, however, does.
Yeah, I think you are right. I am convinced. I would probably draw the line at physical work, meaning if it requires physically opening the device and changing/fixing/bypassing wiring it can count as bricked.
One word - Sweden.
I bricked the reMarkable 2 within a day or two of receiving the device. And since then it's been laying in the cupboard. I'm grateful for the recovery write up by ddvk, but I'd really wish Remarkable would make it a bit easier. I understand it's not their problem, but looking through the physical recovery flow is sadly utterly confusing if one isn't already a seasoned geek. They really should provide the SSH password printed and an easier way to reset the device.

I'd love to give it a try soon.
Unfortunately couldn't source the required parts from any European online shop. Can anyone help here or is AliExpress the only viable option?
I believe Cloudflare usage of PostgreSQL is "write heavy" and is a RDBMS that scaled out very well for them.

They are using CitusDB but it's still RDBMS and support most PostgreSQL SQL query without the need to rewrite your query or change your schema.
Thanks! By "fundamental," I was curious about the nature of the problem's difficulty, moreso than the progress on solutions. And computational intractability due to system properties makes sense!
Every node operator can log their node's mempool, but the protocol does not ensure that mempools are consistent across nodes.

That said, logging this might violate GDPR :)
> They're trying to be secret, that's true. But expectations of privacy are for personal matters, this is posting hostile things and then hoping nobody finds out it's you. I don't think the author necessarily has a reasonable expectation of privacy.

I disagree with this. I think they did have a reasonable expectation of anonymity, they just didn't do a great job at protecting it. Per the article it seems like Epik accept fake names and cryptocurrency; they could have done that and avoided this mess.

I'd expect my registrar to protect my personal address, for example, despite the website being my full name. And for my other domains I absolutely would expect them to protect my identity because I paid for WHOIS protection. And none of them are even remotely controversial.

> The Holocaust was a thing that happened. Pretending it didn't isn't expressing an opinion.

Also disagree. It's an opinion, but a wrong one that they should face social opprobrium for.
$12 a year is misleading. Paying users are much more valuable ad targets than free users once you start segmenting them.

So now you need to charge significantly more than $12 to make up for that. The higher price makes the paid users even more valuable to advertisers.
Eventually the service slips in a few ads because it’s just too much money to leave on the table.

Cable TV started as an ad free subscription service. I’m not saying it can’t work, but historically most subscription services don’t stay ad free forever.

Maybe you don't, but I would expect the people designing the sites know the half life of the materials they are storing. Plutonium-239 for example has a halflife of 24,000 years which is not that much in geological terms..

Fair enough. I have changed my mind on unbricking being a thing.
