This seems like a really long-winded, single perspective (and perhaps even revisionist) way of justifying one possible use-case, in which the author has an oblivious conflict of interest. Maybe he's got some ideas of what a possible future could look like, but it's hard to square this with it conveniently running through the technologies where he's invested, and there's no explanation of how the NFT exchange he was earlier trumpeting is critical to this future. I've read his posts for years and they've evolved into Andreessen Horowitz-style PR masquerading as deep & critical thought pieces.

I haven't looked at Oxide in depth. Hubris seems to be about reducing the Attack Surface of a server by

* decreasing the active codebase by at least three orders of magnitude

* using no C-Code (Rust only?)

* most code is kernel independent and not privileged (e.g. drivers, task management, crash recovery)

Also: Administration is mostly done by rebooting components.

What's more important: Taste or packaging (photos/reviews/atmosphere)?
I need to figure this out to optimize UX and journey to conversions on my app.
In my case, it's about choosing a restaurant. Current apps tend to put first packaging or cuisine type, while food specific taste can be a decisive criteria on the journey to choose a place to eat.

There are a couple studies about the importance of packaging on perceived taste, but none seems to look for a ratio of importance between perceived future taste (packaging, reviews, photos) and known taste (ingredient, dish name, referring to taste memory) when the buy decision has to be made.

I locked my bike at th eoffice and lost the key. Went to security, they gave me a bolt cutter.

That was the first (and only) time in my life I used a bolt cutter and it took me maybe 30 seconds to cut the cable. Now it would have been 10 seconds because I know where to cut.

I would not say that thi sis security theater, it is to avoid the passer-by who would steal your bike on a whim. I have no idea what percentage of thiefs this is .

This also applies to you if you're a business owner. Just replace the word "coworker" with "employee" or "customer" (or "partner")

I think the point the person you replied to was trying to make is that you should treat yourself as your own business. Your employer-employee relationship is the same as any other business-business relationship. You're basically selling your time and you should continue to do so for as long as it is beneficial for you.
> no C code in the system. This removes, by construction, a lot of the attack surface normally present in similar systems.

Not to be too pedantic here, but it's important to note that the absence of C code, while arguably a benefit overall, doesn't by itself guarantee anything with regards to safety/security...I suppose there's going to necessarily be at least some "unsafe" Rust and/or raw assembly instructions sprinkled throughout, but I can't yet see that myself (as of the time of writing this comment, the GitHub links are responding with 404). Nonetheless, it's always refreshing to see some good documentation and source code being provided for these kinds of things. Many companies in this space, even these days, sadly continue to live by some outdated values of hiding behind "security through obscurity", which is somehow championed (though using different words) as a benefit even to their own customers, so it's refreshing that others (Oxide among them) are really starting to take a different approach and making their software/firmware publicly available for inspection by anyone inclined to do so.
> All that is needed is to be the least stealable bicycle in the rack.

So true. Many people seem to imagine bike locks as an arms race between owners and thieves, but it's an arms race between owners and other owners. The role of thieves in that arms race is more like that of a judge than like that of a participant. Well, unless they refuse acting in that role and just pick up the entire rack...

Yes, the developer copy is nice. It's a shame you can't get that with other AWS services, although LocalStack (not personally tried) does look nice.

I am tempted to use DynamoDB from time to time but I've won a few jobs with our ability to deploy to a customer environment, even if they don't always end up doing that. Most of our competitors won't even entertain the idea, so it's a great box to be able to tick.

Note: My experience is in B2B. This isn't such a concern for B2C at least not today. Nonetheless, I would still not want to tie myself to AWS too tightly for a B2C app. Amazon is great today. Tomorrow, who knows? After all, I remember the days when nobody got fired for choosing IBM. I'm not so sure that's true now.

I think the names are very clever.

The OS is named Hubris. Building a new Operating System does take a lot of confidence.

The debugger is named Humility. It can be humbling to know your program is not working correctly and use a tool to discover how it is broken.

Impatience would be a great name for the task scheduler. (Because you want your task to run NOW!)

Laziness would be a great name for a hardware-based watchdog timer. (Because you keep on putting it off / resetting it until later.)

Web3 is not Decentralisation

We had handymen spraying silicone spray all over our (wooden) floor and furniture, because "it helps sliding in the rubber seal" on the doors and windows... "it might be a little slippery, but it will go away in the next days - and don't worry, we take care that nothing spills".

It was everywhere after my MIL wiped the whole house down. That spray was strictly not approved for indoor use, and it did not go away ever. My mother finally found a cleaning product that seemed to help, but this was a huge PITA for months and we were so mad. We thought about redoing all wooden floors for ~7k € (in a rented place after all).

I was also angry at me, because I know that several larger production facilities have strictly banned silicone based products from their premises, because it will contaminate everything it touches (and everything that thing touches) for the further production steps, e.g. painting. You will never ever get that product off these surfaces again, and it will continue to contaminate until you throw everything in the bin.

All the professionals we talked to were convinced that they know no way to get rid of silicone on surfaces (especially indoors in living quarters with small kids present), and sanding the floor down would probably just spread it - cross-contaminating the surfaces again.

There are uses for silicone spray (bicycle maintenance, outdoors, cars, etc.), and I would have one at home for these cases - but that whole product line is strictly forbidden at our home forever.

> International organizations (like WTO, WIPO [even if we think the copyright is too long, and most of patents are dumb, etc] various UN projects), free trade agreements and such are supposed to keep that "power centralization" in check (eg. with things like ISDS and so on).

Unfortunately, almost all historic international organizations (no matter if the UN, EU, NATO or anything else - hell, even the WHO!) operate on a fundamental requirement of trust and the assumption that there are no obstructionist forces and everyone largely plays by the established rules.

This fundamental assumption has been dismantled, starting in the early 90s with the collapse of the USSR... now we have the US and Israel blocking every investigation into war crimes (I do understand the reason though, given anti-Zionist resentments across the world), China not willing anyone to investigate what happened at Tiananmen Square or in the Uyghur concentration camps or with Covid, the Russians protecting the criminal Assad regime, Turkey fighting with Greece, Hungary and Poland blocking anything that could help refugees or hold their regimes accountable for corruption and a boatload of other bullshit.

I'd say don't blame the tool for what sounds like an architectural mess.

TFA points out using nix as a reproducible build environment - which it is excellent at. Create a shell.nix in your repo, and every dev uses the same exact tools within the comfort of their own machine/shell. Docker is much more painful for this kind of local dev workflow.
Anti-patterns when building container images
I didn't say thousands actually (also specifically said it wasn't normal). It's just that I own a fairly mid-high end road bike (that I bought 10 years ago) that cost more than €1000. I used to ride a road bike that cost around €800 as my commuter bike until it got stolen. The quality at this price point is definitely worth it, with diminishing returns above it. I would strongly recommend upgrading to a road or town bike at this price point as it's such a huge improvement and will last you decades.
For the first time in my life, this year I have been listening to a lot of music with autotune all over the vocals (K-pop).

Now when I listen to songs with non-autotuned vocals, even very small pitch variations really jump out for me in a really wonderful way. What's interesting is (assuming it's music I like) I have that wonderful reaction regardless of whether the singer is using pitch variations in a very precise expressive way, or whether, to the contrary, they just don't have good control of pitch.

But I do really enjoy both. There's a Rick Beato video where he complains about the harmony vocals in Lenny Kravitz' Fly Away being autotuned - but I love that sound, it's great!

The precise bluesy inflections in Labelle's Lady Marmalade, versus the autotuned perfection of Shinee's Lucifer (a song which reminds me of the former), versus the wonderfully out-of-tune vocal performance on Motley Crue's Live Wire --- it's all great.

I would just worry about future singers growing up only listening to and copying and internalising the sound of autotuned vocals. But is that going to be the case, with such easy access to music from all eras?

More like developer Towers of Babel waiting to collapse on every build attempt. Docker is fine if it's used correctly but it does add a layer of complexity, it doesn't abstract it away..

The way I see it rampantly (ab)used is as a shortcut to get some software up and running by leveraging a public image and passing tech debt for some component of one's system onto the maintainer of the Docker image, then cobbling together multistage builds from those and microservice architectures to try and support this tech debt model. Sometimes it works, many times it breaks, often it turns into complete and utter nightmares to deal with.

"Amazing Andy got this fantastically complex system up and running in a week all by their self way under time and budget and it works.

I re-read the article after this comment, and I would have to disagree. The article does never attempt to explain "what" recent sourcing means to them, so it's hard to know for sure.

You bring a relevant dimension, often overlooked, to the discussion, I.e. the evolution of the manufacturing model and of mechanics of scale economies. Also, to add to that, what we witness with Covid is the disruption of logistics that makes that transition even more relevant. And the social pressure from societies that, whether right or wrong, now associate isolation with better local opportunities and bearable impacts from limited trade. China is understanding the loss it faces in global market trends. That’s why it focuses introspectively on fairness of distribution of wealth. Because fairness will enable a decentralised supply and innovation model targeted on internal consumption of increasingly sophisticated consumers. A tough balance in the context of socialist principles but China has demonstrated impressive ability to weather conceptual stresses on ideological boundaries on the supply end, now they will focus on demand. I am actually optimistic that, for a while at least, benefits will be felt across all economies. It’s the mechanics of the next crisis that will draw the fields of the next conflict.

> Are you making a profound point about capitalism? “It’s not profound! It’s very simple! I do believe that the overall global economic order is unequal and that around 90% of the people believe that it’s unfair. During the pandemic, poorer countries can’t get their people vaccinated. They’re contracting viruses on the streets and even dying. So I did try to convey a message about modern capitalism. As I said, it’s not profound.”
