>YouTube is a huge technical achievement that would require billions of dollars to replicate.

YouTube achieved this in 15 years time with the help of Google's enormous resources. YouTube competitor would need to have some innovation that is hard for YouTube to replicate.

Funny enough TikTok was able to replicate YouTube in a few years time but only for short videos so it shows you don't need all that what you mentioned. Innovation is what you need.

Hell, if we assume one-hit-kills and no duds/misses, a mid-war German U-Boat probably qualifies for the same achievement, as far as sheer amount of ordnance carried. Not that WWII subs were any good at hunting other subs, but still. It's not really impressive or surprising that a sub would carry enough torpedoes to technically be able to sink all the nuclear subs of any non-US country.
Phoenix is on a much better performance level compared to the other two.

You can use Dutch bank's mortage calculators to see you can't buy a shed on a single income

I read on a Dutch news site this year that even for double earners, home ownership is not feasible in some cases

Banks won't give out mortages for say € 700 / month, forcing these individuals to rent on the private market at € 1000+ a month.

Love Django, yet the transition from local development to deployment, in my opinion, continues to be just plain ugly and painful.

I've written about this before. I think the stock Django dev configuration needs to change to something that is equivalent to a reasonable deployment on a common VPS, whatever that means. The development server is a nice trick, but the things you have to do to move to a real server are painful. Same with SQLite. Why not come up running PostgreSQL by default?

I am sure there are varied opinions on this. All I have to say is that, over the years, I developed a document to help with deployment on standard hosting platforms, like Linode. It is staggering when compared to the experience of deploying something like a Wordpress/PHP site on the same or similar platform.

This, from my perspective, is the weakness for Django, everything else I love and enjoy.

Thank you. Blocking IPC is a very interesting approach but you have to carefully plan ahead, even before writing the first lines of code.

I think the above article missed the "notifications" part. Without notifications, a blocking IPC wouldn't have sense in an RTOS: a task would not be able to process an interrupt because it's blocked while "sending".

I guess the existence of notifications is there to provide methods for an UART driver/task that blocks waiting for interrupts. When the interrupt arrives, the driver deals with it and instead of sending the data directly to a listener, it just "notifies" incoming data to another task (pretty much the "usual" way of doing things).

This makes "UART" to sit on its own task, setting the right priority for it, implement a circular buffer, etc. Complexity quickly escalates for a (for example) "sensor fusion" driver, which has to manage 3 other drivers (accelerometer, gyro and magnetometer drivers), each one on top of another drivers (SPI, I2C, etc.).

But I guess that's a price to pay.

> Users can't disable interrupts, they can only mask or unmask receiving notifications for said interrupts.

Sorry. I interpreted that drivers were also tasks (or they live in tasks?), so being able to interface the hardware I guess setting PRIMASK=1 could be an option too.

Perhaps battery-powered systems is not your application target, but I would be interested to see how __wfi() works within the Hubris context.

> From the perspective and of copyright specifically, it’s also a mistake to assume that all business can move at the pace of electronically distributed software

I think you are confusing copyrights with patents or trademarks. Copyright do not protect physical hardware or goods.

As far as I know, almost all copyrightable works can be transferred electronically. After all, we are talking about the right to copy (and distribute) a work (make more of them to sell it). Goods that cannot be copied are not copyrightable.
It is surprising that there isn't constant passive bathymetrics. The models exist, the hydrophones are already there, and the entire hardware/software stack needed to implement it is there. What's the hold up?
They are not the first. cheaper IPv6-only plans have been a thing with other providers for a while.
> but if you try a few different organized social events (board game meetups, hiking group, whatever) you will probably start talking to a few people.

In my experience, actually no. I took up rock climbing about a decade ago, which most people would say is a fairly social activity. I rarely talk to anyone and certainly wouldn't describe anyone I've met at the gym as a friend. You have failed to consider that maybe the reason people are entertaining themselves with solo activities at home is that they are predisposed towards not being very social even when among other people with similar interests.
This question is framed to preclude the answer.

The real competitor won't be a video hosting service, it will be a content monetization model competitive to advertising. Even content monetization is a weak way of thinking about it, because by abstracting it from the people who want a certain kind of content, you've pre-defined your solution as just another tech without a clear market (a non-product).

The question of "I have all these videos, how do I sell them?" is completely different from, "How do I sell videos?" or "What will these people really pay for and how does video distribution get it to them?"

The question isn't how to reinvent streaming, it's how to discover something someone will pay for. Youtube's product isn't content, their product is the distribution it provides to people who make it - and a combination of the data and channel it provides to advertisers. That's what they sell.

So, do you really want to make another product for advertisers? Even if you really like advertisers and did, investing in another video streaming platform seems like the least smart way to do that right now.

The next real competitor to youtube will look more like AppleTV than Rumble. Arguably, if I will pay $15.99 for a season of Ancient Aliens, I'll pay $7.99 for all of 3blue1brown. It's a different monetization model, and that's the real competition.

If I wanted to make a video streaming product, I would pop up a level and find a market then determine whether their need was more for produced content, or for distribution, and then solve for the economics of that desire. The quesiton isn't how do I monetize this landfill of content, the real question is, who is this customer and what do they want?

I've thought some of this through, and reach out via my profile if you are with a company that is serious about this.
In advance of reading the post, but what an intriguing idea! I doubt they could have sustained an occupation force, though, not with their resource problems, not in advance of expansion across much of the Pacific. You'd have a general on the end of a hell of a long and skinny string, but you'd potentially pin down the entire US Pacific Fleet trying to deal with it and protect the response force...honestly, it's not impossible you could lose the entire invasion force and still achieve the strategic objective, if they held out long enough. And if any army in human history could do it, it'd be the IJA circa 1941, right? What a thought!

The problem is that positive rights vary WILDLY in practicality. For example, China has the positive right to protest ("citizens of the People's Republic of China enjoy freedom of speech, of the press, of assembly, of association, of procession, and of demonstration") -- this means that you are allowed to attend official, government approved protests, of course, and not generally allowed to have protests otherwise. You still have the right to protest -- just not the right to choose what and when and where to protest. See how it gets twisted easily?

"The government shall not pass any law that restricts the ability of the people to protest" is a much stronger and safer precedent.

To be honest though, the real cool part of negative rights is that you can ALSO have positive rights on top of them. They are not mutually exclusive! Take the following phrasing:

* The government may not pass any law that infringes on the right of the people to encrypt their data (this is now a constitutional amendment and nobody can change it without a huge supermajority)

* Also, private companies may not prevent users from uploading, downloading, sending, or using encrypted data, subject to the following restrictions... (this is now law but we will keep updating this)

You have a negative right that says "the government can't abridge this right". THEN you also have a positive right that protects consumers against the actions of private companies. This is the ideal formulation for rights, I think. Negative rights are a constitutional baseline that are hard to get rid of. Positive rights need to change rapidly to address the quickly evolving world. Thus positive rights are best handled by lawmaking, while negative rights are best given strong constitutional protections.

You can only solve the problems you understand, and human knowledge and civilization have expanded to the point where people are not interchangeable.

I can't even be sure my advice on which legislation needs to pass or be repealed is right. It's all a semi-educated guess.

We are a giant parallel engine and insisting that we order all work crashes the capacity of the system to a rounding error.

Cynical/realist take: Take responsibility and then hope your bosses already love you, you can immediately both come with a way to prevent it from happening again, and convince them to give you the resources to implement it. Otherwise your responsibility is, unfortunately, just blood in the water for someone else to do all of that to protect the company against you and springboard their reputation on the descent of yours. There were already senior people scheming to take over your department from your bosses, now they have an excuse.
I actually think in this case it basically is. The court can say those bitcoin are his, but if he doesn't have the wallet he doesn't have the wallet. The only way to get the coins would be to introduce a hard fork that moves those bitcoins, but good luck trying to get a court to mandate every bitcoin miner across the entire world move to a specific peice of software, and then good luck enforcing it. Especially since unlocking those coins would represent about 5% of all the bitcoins ever made.

> Torpedos are not bullets, I don't think this is a good analogy.

The point of the analogy is that the enemy platoon / nuclear submarine force would need be to be located and behave in a way that allowed a single shooter to wipe them all out almost simultaneously. This is particularly unlikely for submarines, especially nuclear-armed ones.
Elastic Compute is not cheaper than co-location or self hosting if you run a service for 24 hours a day. It's arguable if it is "simpler", but probably is if spinning up a new server means buying a new server or talking to sales people at a hosting provider who will surely garble your order.

For some things serverless and cloud-native is crazy cost effective. I have a system that handles the annoying things about running email blasts such as double opt-in, bounce cleaning, etc. A system like that might go practically unused for a few months and then have a fierce burst of activity. I don't have to pay for a server to do nothing for long times and then have it run out of capacity when I need it.
Not in healthy organizations, they don't.
Thanks for the correction. So we're at a 45% increase. Typically life expectancy is reported as the "from birth number". That's gone from ~20 to 80.

The claim was that the bulk of the life expectancy number being driven by the mortality rate prior to adult hood was an "urban myth". Life expectancy in adult hood is a ~1.4x increase. Life expectancy from birth is a 4x increase. I'd say the bulk is driven by saving the lives of children and is not an urban myth.
I don't think engineers can believe in no-blame analysis if they know it'll harm career growth. I can't unilaterally promote John Doe, I have to convince other leaders that John would do well the next level up. And in those discussions, they could bring up "but John has caused 3 incidents this year", and honestly, maybe they'd be right.

The author seems to know about submarines, so let's give him (?) the benefit of the doubt... But without knowing the cause of the accident, the author is calling for a specific change. This seems problematic. Perhaps there is a very good reason that the computer system performs like this.

Also, if you have the computer checking everything, then those 5 people that are supposed to be redundantly computing the navigation plan are highly likely to be less diligent. Human nature and all. Isn't that likely to result in a worse outcome?
Netflix could square the circle by offering "YT for indie filmmakers."

More static content than YT. Better viewer:creator ratio. Fewer content headaches. Content moderation is lower volume and amounts to watching the film. And closer to their existing product fit.

It's actually kind of mind-boggling that Netflix hasn't pivoted into a turnkey solution (standard deal + optional financing support + broadcast platform) for mass-market film-making. Everyone's content starved, it's an obvious weakness that Amazon / Disney / ATT are blind to, and somehow Reed Hastings hasn't pushed in that direction. It's literally what Netflix is famous for doing (twice!): be the platform.
