So what is this data for? Because the ads I get are still nearly completely irrelevant. Last week youtube showed me ads in Spanish which I have zero knowledge of and ads for a company in an entirely different state. If they can't use all this data to know that I don't understand Spanish or what state I live in then what good is all this data?

> natural numbers are infinite but do not contain negative integers

While Z is not a subset of N, N maps 1-1, onto to Z (i.e., they have the same cardinality). That means every element of one set has a corresponding element in the other and vice versa.

Similarly, ismorphisms, homeomorphisms, diffeomorphisms are formalizations of the idea of "different but equivalent in the relevant structures".

I do not have a deeper point to make, but I think your intro argument is not as solid as you might imagine. Plus, things get weird when you go beyond discrete infinities and into the continuum and beyond.
It's also worth noting that projected value is not the same as sale value, so the two aren't that helpful to compare.

This line of reasoning is often used to defend individually wrapped cucumbers, etc.

I watched a documentary recently that compared frozen food to internationally shipped food and found significant nutritional loss in the shipped "fresh" food. As such, I think plastic preserved apparently fresh food could be an explanation for part of the obesity rise. One potentially consumes more calories to get the other nutritional factors that have broken down compared to eating food that can only be delivered actually fresh.

(Given that improved shipping life also turns the market for a vegetable global, I also think more people are priced out of buying produce that once had to be sold locally than are helped by less produce waste in the richest market the produce can now reach.)

Well, well, well! I knew Ian Channell at university in the late 1960s, he was a lecturer in sociology although I wasn't studying the subject.

That was the time of the anti-Vietnam War demonstrations across the world and one of the consequences was heightened political action by students - the like of which has never been seen since, it was then that Channell started a students' movement called Alf - Action for Love and Freedom. Students met in one of the Students' Union buildings after lectures but that's a separate story (and quite an interesting one at that).

I caught up with him again by sheer accident in the 1980s when on a skiing trip in New Zealand when I managed to catch sight of him doing his wizard performance in the square just outside Christchurch's cathedral (since badly damaged in the 2011 earthquake). Afterwards, a skiing friend and I joined him for afternoon tea in a local coffee shop where we reminisced and chewed the cud for several hours.

For that to be true you would need chemically inert pipes, I can't really think of a material in common use that meets that specification. Opening the inquiry a bit to the less common materials:

Synthetic Quartz

Diamond

Although these materials are poor choices for many reasons, they would be very unlikely to leach anything into the water more harmful than carbon or silicon atoms.

> to establish a residency for tax purposes. Otherwise, you can get dinged for taxes from multiple states.

These are all significant factors in a tax residency analysis but not the only ones.

If you find yourself facing a question over tax residency, factors like where you spent your time, where you have residences, where your job is located, where your service providers (doctors, lawyers, etc.) are all

For example, if you rent an apartment, have a driver's license and are registered to vote in Nevada, but you own a large house in California, spend most of the year there, and your most substantial professional and personal dealings are in California, good luck defending your Nevada tax residency claim if the FTB comes knocking.
Nomad vs kubernetes is like comparing apples with pears.
They actually say it in their docs, that kubernetes is a complex solution whereas nomad isn't. For example when building a frontend, you don't go with react or building everything yourself, you use a framework that brings plenty of things at once that play well in an eco system. What's the matter of bringing a ton of hashicorp tools together manually? You can just use kubernetes. I'd say setting up kubernetes is just as complex as putting together a bunch of hashicorp solutions. And ultimately people (the majority) simply love all-in-one solutions

I wonder what it would sound like if they went to a higher blood count on the props. For some reason they don’t seem to have garnered much attention yet, but eight blade props are extremely quiet relative to the smaller prop counts.

Here’s example comparing a typical 2 (or 3) blade 5” prop to an 8 blade on a drone. The 8 blade is smaller, 3” i believe, with similar performance but a major difference in sound.

I've been using Blender for, ooo, I'd say about 15 years now?

I've got almost every hotkey down to a reflex, explored the software extensively, even written my own plugins for Blender. I've watched it grow over the years and man, has it come SO far.

And let me tell you... I can honestly say 15 years... I still feel like I'm barely scratching the surface.

Blender is just an infinite well of potential power and productivity. The more you put in to it, the more it will give you back.

And every few months the Blender devs put out a new update, making it even better than before. Absolutely amazing tool, would be easily worth thousands a year to me for my professional work and yet it's free. It's a 'must have' for any graphic designer/3D artist/etc in my opinion.
As someone who doesn’t know any lisp well, it’s odd to hear you highlighting significant differences in syntax between them. I thought the character of a lisp is that it doesn’t have much syntax. I’d be interested in an example.
I guess it depends what you consider as "hacking", exactly. To me "hacking" implies "customizing, but not as the makers had intended".
Physics is a rule set that never changes, hence engineering standards can be built around it.

Qualitative systems like programming languages have an immeasurable amount of variation and complexity and are extremely difficult to monitor and enforce standards around.

What’s required is a better stack that is less error prone. If programmers can’t make the mistakes in the first place, they won’t happen.
Since time is part of the universe, I'm not sure whether it is meaningful to talk about something that happened before it existed.

This one will not fall out of the sky like a brick if the electrical failure will occur

I myself researched how to detect quadcopter failure, and land them in a less catastrophic way. The easiest way to survive a single motor failure, is to spiral your way down at full motor torque, but it will not save you from an electrical failure in the main DC-DC — where they most often occur.
> Kubernetes also has better support for organization-wide multi-tenant clusters than Nomad seems to have

That one's a little weird, I suppose you're right, but all the clients our Kubernetes team works with all want separate clusters or testing, staging and preproduction. They certainly don't want a multi-tenant cluster and share resources with other clients.
The social acceptance of many autonomous applications hinge on accepting that someone was hurt or killed in a way that was trivial to prevent for a human in control.

The other side of this is that a machine may prevent other accidents that a human cannot prevent. As long as our machines aren't truly superhuman we will have to find an optimal middle-ground (between human and machine control).

It's a false claim often made by marketing people that marketing is synonymous with persuasion and the propagation of ideas. That without marketing everything is doomed to obscurity and irrelevance. Well, that may be true for an increasing number of areas of life in the world that marketing has built but it isn't generally. You've heard of Quantum Mechanics, right? Do you think it says something valid about the world? Did anyone ever market it to you?

Marketing is a fundamentally shallow form of communication. It's the forcing of awareness of something onto people without their choosing to be aware of it. The payload is necessarily low in information content, the interaction is brief and the message is dressed up to be maximally attention-grabbing. These things have negative results, and those negative results become worse the more pervasive marketing gets. The fact that people have always done it doesn't make it good, or make it desirable to allow an unlimited amount of it into our society.

It's worse in modern times for a couple of reasons. One is that our society consumes more information than ever before, and we've made a Faustian bargain with marketing to fund the generation of that information. Another is that marketing drags everything down to its level - the presence of these shallow, maximally distracting signals forces others to do the same in order to be heard. The transformation of politics into marketing (marketed as "inevitable" or "the way it's always been" by marketers) is a case in point. It's cancerous, and I'm glad people are finally waking up to it.
Yeah but the old "just this once because it's a unique situation and surely nobody would care and and everybody would agree it's for the best anyway and I can't even see how it's a problem in the first place" is how a lot of corruption happens.

Based on the assertiveness and authority of your comment, it's probably safe to assume you're a parent too. As a parent, your comment has made me very curious.

You're also on a tech-heavy forum, indicating two other things. You probably work in a stressful and demanding field/industry/company and you also have time to browse and comment online when work or the partner aren't a-callin'.

And yet based on your comment you're always able to give you kids your complete and undivided attention?

I'd love to hear how you are able to accomplish of this?

It's not an attack on your or a declaration of doubt, but as a parent that struggles with the urge of turning on Word Party for hour so that you can get some time to collect yourself after a long and challenging day, I'd really love to hear some advice or recommendations on how to be so attentive and devoted to your kids.
You're probably being underpaid even for Latvia. The first thing you should change in your analysis is that you should compare your salary to other software developers, not the general national average for all people. I would hope that the Central Statistic Bureau of Latvia provides this data, but you'd have to search for it yourself.

I'm from Estonia (immediate neighbor of Latvia with a similar history) and the statistics here [1] paint a healthier picture. The median software developer salary in Estonia for Q2 2021 was 3300€/month (39600€/year), with the average being even higher (3460€/41520€). These are national level statistics, so the numbers are even higher if you work for one of the local unicorns or Microsoft.

You should probably start demanding more money. Not US levels of compensation, but at least figure out the local Latvian median for software developers and aim for that to start with.

> But one of the reasons I don't like talking about religion on HN is that I've found a computer science centric way of thinking about some sub branches of philosophy and theology is a dead end. We're used to dealing with such pedantry and strict logic that I find we over use them in places where they're not nearly as useful as they seem.

Fair enough. I like discussing religion in circles like this one, because I'm convinced there is a lot of value to be found in religious traditions, but I find it hard to connect to the typical religious crowd.
So far the only answer I've seen people give to the question is "what problem? There's no problem". Basically, there are many people who don't (or also have convinced themselves that they don't) perceive an incongruity between their personal subjective experience and the idea that consciousness is just an emergent phenomena of a physical system. I haven't found a good way to explain it, I just know that there's something wrong or missing.

So basically it seems there's three camps:

Those that feel the incongruity and don't know a solution.

Those that feel the incongruity and have found their own solution (which is usually what people will call "religion").

Those that do not feel the incongruity.

I don't personally see a way to justify it if someone doesn't feel the problem in their bones.

I've been running a production-grade Nomad cluster on Hetzner for the past 1 1/2 years and it's fantastic. It was amazingly easy to set up compared to Kubernetes (which I also did), the UI is awesome, updates haven't broken anything yet (as long as you follow the changelog) and it's stable. I really like the separation of concerns the HashiStack offers. You can start out just using Consul for your service meshing, and then add Nomad + Vault to get a similar experience to Kubernetes.

Yes, it doesn't cover as many features as Kubernetes, but it should be good enough for most software and you can still make the switch later. I would never go back.
