Interesting that the author concludes his otherwise interesting observations by discussing the advanced processing power of the iPhone.

You already need multiple radar altimeters on ONE plane much closer physically and spectrum wise than 5G. In busy airports you already have multiple altimeters operating again closely physically.

>Take this as a learning experience: don't assume that you are at a startup where people will drop everything to handle a request from you right away. Instead, assume that people are dealing with a lot of other requests, from a lot of other people. Learn how the system works, and learn how to be effective within that system.

Somewhat ironically, I just left a FAANG where people constantly had this behavior of expecting me (or other members of my team) to drop whatever and prioritize their request.

I'll try to explain what I mean. Suppose you want an in game character to change the displayed weapon in their inventory.

Stateful way: your Inventory Manager component iterates through its private array of item entities to mark their model components as shown or hidden, then calls the dependency injected character's avatar component to update its animation state.

Stateless way: you flip an integer in character's struct, and the rendering function does something different.

No, for example, the datediff in years for New Year's Eve and New Year's Day should be 1 (because it spans a year boundary), but EXTRACT on the difference would give you 0:

Based on the description given in the OP, I don't think we have enough information to conclude whether the OP was given the right amount of resources to complete their task or not. While the "migrate to the new deploy infrastructure" might be the most important task from the OPs perspective, there's nothing there to indicate to me that it's a particularly important task from the broader businesses perspective. Indeed, I wouldn't be surprised if this expectation was already communicated to the engineer by their manager, which is why they're here posting about it.

Of course, it's entirely possible that you're right, and if this was a more important issue I definitely agree with you that it needs to have a dedicated resource assigned from the deploy team and it needs to be scheduled into their roadmap somehow. Ultimately we're just all speculating based on the small details the OP gave us.

However, I think my core point still stands—even if OP is right to feel that the deploy team is making the wrong decision in general about prioritization, they need to at least consider that the deploy team has other, competing priorities that they're juggling, and that the actual change might be more complicated in "at scale" (code review, QA, interaction with other options, documentation, long-term maintenance, etc) then OP is willing to believe.
Be very careful with those. It's *very* easy to end up on the wrong side of the ATF. I.e. on that one you posted, he's calling it a pistol, but it appears to have a stock to me.

I believe that makes it a rifle in ATF terms. Rifles have to have a 16" barrel, or they're short-barreled rifles that require a whole bunch of extra paperwork and some taxes. The class is called NFA Items, and includes fully automatic weapons. I.e. making that thing is the same as home-manufacturing a machine gun to the law.

I'm going to hope for his sake that he's got the appropriate FFL licenses to allow him to make such things. It seems like they're really into the space, so it wouldn't surprise me. I don't think those licenses are crazy hard to get, but I could be wrong.

There is a difference between making something "impossible" and making something "easier". Performing reverse DNS lookups, or otherwise trying to maintain a global table of 1:1 domain:IP mappings and perform lookups in real-time, is nowhere near as easy nor reliable as sniffing SNI. IME, it is neither easy nor reliable, nor worth the effort. SNI is the preferred method. SNI is easier. SNI is 100% reliable for detecting what hostname the user is trying to access.

What is the point of so-called "DNS privacy/Private DNS" if "anyone can tell which site you are visiting" simply by observing IP addresses, without any need to see domainnames.

If SNI (plaintext hostnames sent over the wire) is a non-issue, then why are people working on encrypted Client Hello in TLS1.3.

There was certainly much lamentation at the time that Apple didn’t purchase BeOS.

I’m also reminded of Sun’s near-acquisition of Apple (apparently multiple times), which McNealy(?) later acknowledged would never have worked out so well.

Jobs gets a lot of grief here and elsewhere for his personal failings and management style, but this was an epochal moment in the computer business. I remember roughly at the same time dreading what seemed like the inevitable Windows victory over all of personal computing.
Perhaps its because Universal Paperclips is an idle game about building a paperclip factory, so its in fact quite similar to Factorio in a storyline level.

In fact, the core gameplay loop is around mining (Factorio) or building wire (Universal Paperclips). Mines make ore, ore makes plates, plates make circuits, circuits make mining machines, mining machines make more ore.

Universal paperclips: wires make paperclips, paperclips are sold for money, money buys autoclippers + auto-wire. Auto-wire makes more wire, and autoclippers make more paperclips.

In both cases, you're building out your factory for explosive, super-linear growth. Good decisions and good management (including researching technology in both games) can lead to more and more inventions that allow for more efficient processing (Factorio), or faster autoclippers / megaclippers in Universal Paperclips.

I'm still mad about that change, and to this day I still take a couple failed attempts to find it.

This thought has a very narrow perspective. During the space program, a few million rows was very large. Today, you have better tools so a few million rows is small to you. But someone else who works on Fugaku has tools that you don't have and will find that your "large" amount of data is small to them -- they also get to use the electrical equivalent of 20,000 homes to process that data.

Most people today don't have the computing tools that you do. Yes, a consumer laptop running Numpy can process it quickly. But they have Excel, not Numpy...and Excel cannot process millions of rows. So in the context of the tools they have, it is a large table.

> If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite.

- William Blake

I don't know of any evidence he experimented with drugs, however he was influenced by the Swedenborgian and Moravian sects of London who espoused a spiritual sexuality, which Blake called "Beulah" in his mythology.

The "doors of perception" for Blake were rather his idea that the world exists as human imagination "Jerusalem", and for him the Fall was the fall from this state through the creation of the physical world, as referenced in the next part of the quote

> For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.

As now in our fallen state we can only perceive parts of the infinite through our senses.

Ask HN: How to formalise an ad-hoc maintenance arrangement
I wrote some software for a family member's joint business a couple of years ago that is used constantly and very much a critical part of the daily operations of their business. Roll on to now and the family member has decided to resign (though retaining their stake), leaving it in the hands of the remaining owner and the investors. There was never much thought given to maintenance in terms of formalising the arrangement, there was the occasional issue with a third party integration that I would resolve without charge (because it was family), but it has been very little hassle. He understands how the software works at a process level and its quirks, so staff would never need to approach me directly.

Now that he will be gone I will potentially have to deal with staff training, direct support if there's an issue, angry managers, etc, currently with nothing in return for myself. If the software or integration fails, then the business grinds to a halt. How should I go around approaching this issue given that they are used to paying nothing, or would it be better for them to approach me when they first need my assistance?

I would want to make sure that I am correctly compensated with a monthly retainer. I wouldn't be able to provide anything in the way of an SLA because I have other work commitments. Any advice would be appreciated.

3500-3600Mhz and 4800-4900Mhz are the closest used frequencies for 5G in China. Much farther away from the frequencies used by the altimeters than the frequencies causing the concern in the US. In Europe the closest frequency being used is 3800Mhz. Again much farther away from the frequencies used by the altimeters.
It's probably more about the safety culture than the technology. This is the same industry that grounded the 737 MAX worldwide for almost two years due to some rare issues that would have been tolerated in almost every other field.

Because radio altimeters have not been required to tolerate interference above a certain threshold within ~10% of their frequency band, the assumption is that they cannot tolerate it until there is something like a decade or two of production-scale experience without any serious issues. Or until all passenger planes have radio altimeters certified for the new stricter requirements. And because the latter costs money, the industry won't do it as long as other options remain.
"destination for rare and deadly disease"

I see someone shifting the goalposts here, first we were saying that US healthcare is not worse in any metric, then we started measuring it's success by medical tourism, now are down to some special rare diseases.

Doesn't look like that works correctly for smaller units. For example:

(1 row)

For a sum this should return 70 (since there are obviously 70 minutes in total). Instead, it gets normalized to 1 hour and 10 minutes, and returns the minute component only.

Yep. That's exactly why this function isn't trivial to write. Boundaries are not obvious and native pg functions (insofar as I'm aware of them) don't do these kinds of diffs.
