That sounds a bit like "former Enron staffers launch Ethical Business Institute". I mean I'm sure some nice people worked for Enron too, but...

Also I can't point at the exact place but it definitely has a whiff of "how we get DNC/government to control all major information platforms without them explicitly controlling all major information platforms". I mean, I have nothing against banning troll farms and such, but when I read about platforms' "integrity teams" banning people that are definitely not troll farms but somebody who dares to say something contradicting the Currently Approved Truth (TM) - and it's not one or two cases, but dozens going into hundreds - I start doubting "integrity" has anything to do with it.
What happens when that database fails? Are you OK losing some data, or do you want the data to be synchronously replicated off the machine and be available somewhere else after failure? Distribution isn't only about scale, it's also about availability.

What happens when that database loses some data? Do you want an up-to-the second backup, or point-in-time recovery? Or are you OK restoring last night's backup? Distribution isn't only about scale, it's also about durability.

What happens when you need to run an expensive business process ad-hoc? Do you want it to be easy to scale out reads, or to export that data to an analytics system? Or are you OK building something else to handle that case? Distribution isn't only about scale, it's also about flexibility.

What happens when you want to serve customers in one market, and make sure that their data stays local for regulatory compliance reasons or latency? Are you OK with having separate databases? Distribution isn't only about scale, it's also about locality.
Just Monike.
Latency and performance, if you have to wait for the server every time you move or fire. It's a tradeoff which things are client and which are server.
Government Alphabet agencies (see what I did there) don't just outsource, they run shell companies and real companies. They also invest in startups. Along with the revolving doors of regulation and regulated industries, nepotism, insider dealing one wonders if the labels such as Government and Corporate are just a distraction? The extent of this is probably unknowable but sometimes I wonder how much we all know for certain, because it is so obvious, is not actually so.
This also is revealing - maybe it is time to create a blog after all.

Many people do give up on computer problems if they take longer than a few minutes to solve, or do not want to spend time piecing together fragments together, domain, hosting, dns, email, etc.
It's highly unlikely you want to run your own BGP presence on the internet. If you just want to play with anycast services locally to get a feel or testing in before deploying it on someone else's reliable and secured routing infrastructure and worldwide presence then rather than going through the trouble of getting an ASN and peering with the actual internet you can just use a few linux VMs locally and something simple like OSPF (or even static routes depending how you simulate the failures). Or even the same guide without bothering to peer with the internet (if you can trust the packets don't care the address is actually publicly reachable).

OTOH if you do actually want to run your own anycast netowrk on the public internet I recommend reading a lot more than the manual on quagga or BIRD, particularly some resources like "Protecting the Integrity of Internet Routing: Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Route Origin Validation". It's a bit like an email server, easy to set up but hard to set up properly.
Well it's certainly fragile and easily lost.

Are you implying some deeper understanding in GPT3?
Eighteen yesterday. So 1.5 dozen. Maybe "dozens" is too much of an exaggeration?
I think the point is that this slush pile needs to be automated as well before the hype around GPT-3 is realized.
>>This is not true. When you compare the CouchDB replication with other replication protocols, it is slow.

That may be true but when a single user is working with an offline-first app connected to a CouchDB installed on their desktop pc that happens entirely in the background so they don't experience any lag.

And while I've not done benchmark studies with CouchDB I have monitored the logs to watch those syncs and we're not talking painfully "slow" in real world use. It is reliable though. I've been using it for about 5 years now and it's been solid. And so has the work they've done to improve it.

And I was not aware of RxDB, which is certainly interesting, so thank you for sharing that!

Fortunately, in Bitcoin whale ownership does not imply control over the network. Fortunately, Bitcoin is PoW and not PoS.
Or even just that the chip was designed to fuse these blocks off for the low price options. It's not uncommon for those license agreements to allow disabled blocks without the licensing fees.
There was a lot of new vocabulary in that for me, whats a good starting point for learning about modern transistors?
Yeah, infosec has its limits. But if you’re gonna challenge the state, it does help keep things quiet until you are numerous and armed.
"But most of the time the media is not misleading"

This I disagree with, almost every story I have had in-depth knowledge of has been very misleading. This is partially laziness, but mostly due to wanting to present a coherent and engaging narrative.
And you want utmost security for your body, which is why you go to the doctor instead of self threat. And also doctors go to other doctors when they are ill.

The sad reality is that things are complex and you probably get suboptimal results trying to do everything yourself, what other spend their lives trying to accomplish the same.

WhatsApp scaled to 1B users with only 50 engineers, but there were 50 people working full time to provide what people think they can provide in their spare time?

Also as the other end of any communication is quite scaring thinking I am communicating securely with someone, but then finding out that their server is compromised because of an out of date library or service.
The article doesn't seem to discuss post-grad education at all, including law school, med school, etc.

I mostly disagree, I would like ECE to offer both a career for those that pursue it and a certain level of professionalism that I would not expect out of essentially a babysitter.

But, what's more important here is that, as it is currently, many fast food restaurants both require less and pay significantly more than ECE. The idea that this is simply a licensing problem is just incorrect.
population growth is starting to recede. Most 1st world countries are growing through immigration, with a birth rate that is too low to support our population.

We are trending towards having a smaller population in 100 years.

US Birth rate is 1.7 kids per female.
Now that you mention it I tend to get the occasional buffering issue too. My main usecase for plex is sharing my library with my friends, does jellyfin have an easy way of doing that?
Looks like I was wrong on this - at least in the latest version of the PD2 standard it's not allowed to advertise any combination that exceeds the PDP. It's only in PD3 that devices are allowed to limit power in particular configurations due to thermal constraints even if they can technically deliver the same power in another configuration, but even that is limited only to >100W configs. So you're right about this - my example is definitely incorrect.
Is this really a problem? It's not like it runs in the background. How is this different to adding, say, a new tab in the Settings app or a new screenshot tool (which they did a while back)?
And indeed FB did eat their lunch in social.
Yes, I've wondered the same thing. Anti-sexual harassment training, and more broadly the discouraging of socialization between men and women, has also reduced the opportunity for men and women to marry. The flip side of the male executive no longer being able to chase his secretary around a desk to try to pinch her on the butt is another executive not being able to politely court the secretary he is in love with (and vice versa).

I don't have a good answer for how to get the one without the other, but both are consequences of modern sensibilities.
Looks like it's stuck at July 2020.
AFAIK it comes down to some degree to a tradeoff between the projected density and power efficiency gains of newer gear vs the cost savings of keeping older gear around and in the racks. Some datacenters simply can't support higher density due to power constraints and if the newer gear isn't offsetting the capital costs by pulling in more revenue then you might as well keep the old gear around longer.

Yeah, one sentence or so in an entire article almost entirely about money.

That's nothing but an alibi or some sort of decorative item, meant as distraction from the rest of the perversion.
Out of curiousity, what do you feel Rust would need to reach maturity?
For several comments you made the point that the idea of inertial scrolling (dragging something and letting it "slide") was not obvious:

> I'm speaking of the inertial scrolling [...] That physics combination with drag and drop interaction was not obvious

Now you pivoted to the point that the implementation is what makes it not obvious:

> You have to think of and implement the idea.

Despite the tone of disapproval you just landed in agreement with what I said in the very first comment:

> The "what" is obvious [...] The technical "how" of the implementation is not really obvious

Will it be a novel invention to implement the inertial scrolling of a map using an exceptionally overly-complicated and completely impractical method that nobody has used before? No. Will the idea of inertial scrolling be obvious despite my completely non-obvious implementation? Very much so.
How do you ensure that "integrity" does not morph into "ban everything our groupthink says is wrong"? How do you ensure you're not coopted into an ideological or partisan propaganda/speech control efforts - a trap that so many "fact checkers" gladly fallen into?

We have two 350' wells for loops at our house in Maryland. Tripled square footage in the new house and energy costs stayed the same. Moved from natural gas for heat, but still have it fir backup (which in a decade has never been needed).
One way to lower your risk of ticks is to manage the parts of your yard you use most. Mowing paths into your yard instead of mowing the entire yard can help and allow the other parts of your yard to grow, planting patches of yard with native plants and allowing plants to grow instead of turf.

If you can find a way to attract Opossum they are net tick destroyers. Keeping out deer will only help so well, as small mammals(chipmunks, mice, etc) are primarily the sustainers of tick populations.
This is a great question! I'm still trying to find a top-down definition instead of a "I know it when I see it" one.

To me it's probably something like this: we can think about an information ecosystem or social platform as a system. "Normal" hacking of the system happens through finding loopholes code. (That's cybersecurity). "Integrity-related" hacking of the system happens through finding loopholes in design and rules.

For some easy examples, that covers things like realizing you can post to 1000 groups in an hour. Or using sockpuppets to give artificial boosts to posts. The attackers aren't hacking code, but are hacking a system of rules, norms, and defaults on that system. (And often, finding the holes between where one part of the system was soldered onto the other).

That's the technical part. Integrity also has a sort of ethical component. I think that's meaningful too.
Whose exactly is "their" assets? Assets belong to people, and they're also not broadly stored at banks.

If only we spent more time having fun as opposed to pretending to.

My biggest gripe recently is the fact that Zuck and Co take bites out of my food and drink long before I can. Heck, when I am on vacation, they enjoy the view before I can. What gives? If I could only count the number of times where a hungry me waiting on my food was told to wait because "we need pictures of this awesome food".

When did folks start living for the likes as opposed to just liking their living?

No hurt intended here, but Zuck & co can shove their metaverse somewhere the sun don't shine for all I care.
If I understand correctly not applicable here (patent expired after max duration of 20 years), but one facet of this is that in some cases you can buy a patent that is expired because the owner decided it wasn't worth to continue pay the extension fees and un-expire it by paying the fees retroactively.
Sure it does, if they own all the money they can just buy all the miners. PoS just elides the step of wasting all the world's resources.
> The top 50% of earners already pay 97% of all the income taxes.

Personal income taxes are about 58% of taxes on personal income. The other 42% are the much more regressively-distributed payroll taxes, where the middle and upper classes pay less-to-none while the working class pays heavily.

> The US has one of the most progressive tax systems in the world.

[citation needed], but even if so then it more than makes up for it with the distribution in spending; considering taxes and spending together, the US has consistently been near the bottom at policy progressivity (measured by post- vs. pre- transfer change in Gini coefficient.)

> How much more progressive of a system do you want?

At a minimum, not giving preferential tax treatment to a form of income received predominantly by the super-rich (long-term capital gains); while there is an argument that income earned over multiple years but realized all at once should get taxed in a way that reflects that in a progressive system, a step reduction for long-term capital gains is not a sensible way to do that, as it both reduces tax on income for which that doesn't make sense and misses much where it does. Allowing options time-shift income for tax purposes (free advance recognition and limited deferral) does that better, handles thing like artistic projects that are developed over years and then realize income over a shorter period later as well as long term capital gains, but doesn't give tax cut for long terms gains that wouldn't change tax brackets even if spread out over the full term the asset was owned. It is much more fair as well as more progressive.

> Unrealized capital gains are imaginary

If that's really true, the LTCG are just windfall income that should be fully taxed in the year received. It’s not, though.

All of that is true, and remains true if they're using a bridge service as well. The bridge service is strictly reducing the security of messages.

Look, I'm not up in arms or anything, I just can immediately see a drawback to bridging Signal specifically. There exist many other services (Telegram, Slack, Discord, the list goes on) that can be bridged to Matrix without compromising the security posture in any terrificly meaningful way, IMO. So the idea is great in principle.
Most people in the US who have contracted COVID-19 don't have proof of it. Vaccinating everyone is cheaper and more consistent than trying to build out mass testing infrastructure. Plus if you can convince people to show up for a test, it's better to just vaccinate them. Tests can come back negative, or give false positives, in which case those people still won't have immunity, but the benefits of the vaccine are pretty well understood. AFAIK it's more of an issue of ensuring public safety and efficiency than whether your immune system produced good enough antibodies from an infection.
>Tesla loses money on every car it sells and cooks the books by charging for imaginary options.

This is false lol.
Probably because intel chips feel like they have stagnated somewhat performance-wise while they milked the market IMHO.

Why upgrade to the latest intel CPU when you get a paltry 100Mhz clock increase for the bother? May as well wait another year if 3 year old CPUs are pretty much the same performance as current models (give it take a few %)
I was taught to use a semicolon when both fragments can stand alone as discrete sentences.
Picking a GP is a crap-shoot: you'll have to try until you're tired of searching and settle on one you're comfortable with. Friends' recommendations will usually prove to not be a fit. There's no FaceBook or Apple app that can match you well with a GP (or specialist). This is largely the doctors' doing - they don't want their data public. Someday it'll happen and we'll be able to do some matching, but that is not yet a reality.

So for now its a personal relationship: what works for one person won't necessarily work for another. Unless you have a twin or clone who can recommend a GP, you simply must do the search.
At the same time Facebook tried and failed to take on Gmail.
Also, to run your own service you must specialize in security AND devops. The two thing overlaps a bit, but not 100%. And you must hope that every contact you are talking to has the same knowledge.
You do realize more and more people are finding it too difficult to live in big cities like Toronto and are forced into much smaller cities/towns/hamlets where these are issues. Paying $2,000 a month rent is difficult for the average person making minimum wage. The affordability paradox is forcing young people and young couples into rural off the grid properties because few will ever afford a home in Toronto. Part of the solution is to encourage more rural density. This is an issue that you should support.
I will say, requiring 12 year olds to have a vaccine passport to enter public places (as is the case in much of Western Europe) is as cyberpunk-dystopian as things get, given the hospitalization numbers. A clear result of lobbying.
Because they worked more hours, or because they chose to build something less stupid?
>but it is so heavily regulated in certain ways that it is probably leaning more towards a Marxist creation

I find it interesting that you don't mention those ways, or why they might make the US healthcare system "Marxist". Marxism is a form of socioeconomic analysis, not an economic system, nor a scheme of healthcare regulation. I have absolutely no idea what you're trying to convey.
I don't know anything about this, can someone provide context on why this post is getting so downvoted, the sources they are providing look very reliable
I doubt AMD lacks the engineering talent to knock out a spectacular ARM chip but we also have to consider that a few years ago they were running on fumes, near bankruptcy. Didn't they also have to sell their HQ and then rent the building out?

With that pressure they cannot sit around and take a risk on a long term unknown that did not guarantee returns. Maybe today they can pursue this path(I bet they are experimenting internally). I recall some quote by Lisa Su that they are open to other arch long term.
> The way capital calls have been described to me is that limited partners just say they have a certain amount of capital available, and at any time the VC PE fund just requests/demands it from your bank account? Which seems a little odd and inconvenient to me.

This is essentially how it works. The alternative is the following:

Let's say you raise a $1B fund and everyone gives you cash up front. That $1B is effectively going down in the value if it just sits there in cash.
It's not about public health. It's about control.

Don't know exactly who you mean, but while sawyer x has stepped down recently, the dev team seems to be in good shape-- they've adopted the steering committee idea, and are using an informal RFC process to make decisions about new features.

> If you have some deep burning need to be a woodsman, more power to you, but that's your decision and your money.

One could say the same if you choose to be a car-less urban dweller who relies on transit and high-density infrastructure.

You can stereotype and caricature people both ways, neither helps the discussion.
Manufacturing solar panels and giant wind turbines, then generating a bunch of power, and then wasting it isn't green. It's greenwashing.

However, that wasn't really the question at issue.
The spammers don't actually keep tabs on things like this, nor share them among competing spammers as you've suggested. That adds cost that they don't need to worry about since everything is automated anyway, and their calls are essentially free to them. You might piss off the "operator" you eventually got to speak to, but the best way they have to get back at you for it, is to just let you keep getting their calls.

They call random numbers for certain areas, just as they use random semi-localized numbers for the recipient to see.

You probably have an area or prefix that isn't all pumped up with spammers at the moment. But it's not because you're being clever with them (although that can indeed be fun).
Wasn't there an article here on HN last week about Lambda School (?) students having problems? Something more than the usual inflation of hiring rates at the end of the program (https://www.theverge.com/2020/2/11/21131848/lambda-school-co...)?
