> actually, inverter limited - if I added some 48VDC loads

I know it’s only lighting as a load, but I’ve heard standard LED light bulbs will happily run as low as 36VDC, as they chop the voltage down to that level anyway.

It makes me wonder how many “120VAC” devices with switch mode power supplies could be plugged into 48VDC without any thought at all. And not just electronics like a laptop or non-plasma flatscreen, but everything is moving in this direction:

Like… what’s my Variable Frequency Drive “inverter” refrigerator motor voltage really running at? In theory it should happily run off 120VDC at least. Don’t do that, but somewhere under 110VDC should work fine. And it’s inherently soft start and easier on one’s low voltage wiring than an on/off duty cycle fridge.

Of course I recommend none of this officially.

Objecting to unapproved grafitti is not about "is it art". it's about property destruction. If you disagree then I'll be happy to come over to your house and paint whatever "I want" on your house, your car, and TV, your computer, your sofa. If you'd be upset that I painted your stuff then you agree with the people who see it as property destruction. If you'd be upset for your own stuff but not when that stuff belongs to someone else then you're just being hypocritical.
If I receive a dividend and don't use it to buy more shares, now I'm less invested in that stock. And I've got to pay tax.

If the company buys other people's shares, now I own (very marginally) more of the company.

I agree with your management incentives, although RSUs and options contracts can adjust for dividends.

There is also mailcow.

I've been using mailinabox for years now, and it is really good in the sense that it gets out of my way.

I've included it in my ansible setup, so the basis, distro, os updates, firewalls, backups are cositent with my other servers.

That took some effort: mailinabox is opnionated (and that is good. It is the main reason it works well and is secure), which can be a bit confronting if your opninions are very different.
There are so many different reasons prices can change. Changes in availability of natural resources, changes in consumer demand, changes in the means of production, changes in technology.

We know the market is complex and with cyclical components and resonances at various frequencies. We know of the feedback loops caused by expectations driving self-fulfilling prophecies. We know of its fractal and stochastic nature. We know it's almost never a simple cause-and-effect relationship -- rarely is a market participant strong enough to wrestle on even terms with everyone else.

Every time I see things like this it makes me so grateful that we have a state scholarship (HOPE). I pay like $200 a semester on tuition, then around $1000 on other school fees.

If I don't have to relocate for job opportunities (currently in Atlanta), I plan to stay here and encourage any future children to stay in-state. That's of course assuming that the state doesn't kill off HOPE by then.
I like this article, and I also like the Girardian theory/terminology, but I wish I could send this to my younger brother without him having to muck through the context of RG and mimetic theory.

I know it would sort've just become a self-help article at that point. There's been a deluge of those lately, most of which are of s** quality and usually preaching the sort of "hustle hard bro" message Luke decries, but I just think this sort of stuff would _actually_ do well on TikTok with a smidge of substitution for the more core-RG terminology.
Ah, okay. It is about web cache poisoning, but there are many web caches that would use urllib.parse without a proxy being involved. Like an app directly counting on urllib.parse to generate a key for a redis cache. And the base problem happens to have broader implications than just cache poisoning. It could cause, for example, plain old data corruption for url parameter values.
If you are willing to accept lookup tables or approximations, then yeah, arbitrary distributions are trivial. However for certain domains, you may want a more closed form solution for mapping uniform to your distribution, which may not be obvious. E.g. I would say generating pink noise is not "trivial" because there is no closed form solution (c.f. generating gaussian distribution via Box-Muller, that is trivial), so you need to pick a method which may have tradeoffs.

Certainly, at one place I worked, the higher-ups were very clear that any work on cost reduction was wasted and devs and ops should always work on increasing net income, not decreasing costs. It was consistently claimed that cost reduction can only get you small percentage decreases, whereas increases in income are larger and compound better.
Infrastructure. A train isn't just a vehicle but thousands of miles of track that must be maintained. The higher the speed, the greater the cost to build and maintain that track. Airplanes need runways, but those are a pittance to maintain compared to rail lines. Land is also 2d finite resource that must be dedicated to rail travel. Airspace is 3d.

And for anyone reading this who is wondering if that sounds familiar - a certain type of ADHD does tend to manifest as the ‘stays up for days working on the cool problem until they are so exhausted they pass out’, which looks remarkably like stimulant abuse for someone with ‘normal’ (quotes because it’s not like we fully understand what that means either) brain chemistry. And it happens without any external drugs or chemicals.

Medication (with stimulants) often allows the person to stop or control it when it isn’t helpful or desirable, and actually sleep. Which is quite unintuitive at first.

Inattentive type is also a thing, and often looks like someone who is always daydreaming/off in their own world. That tends to show up more in women, but that’s only a rough categorization. Some folks cycle back and forth.

Overall as pointed out elsewhere, it’s the difficulty in regulating and directing attention that is the problem, and when it causes distress and difficulty living a normal life is when it gets categorized as a disorder.

There's an important distinction between prohibiting speech or commerce you dislike and refusing to consume or participate in what you dislike.

If the equivalent augmented reality technology were developed, I'm unsure of what grounds objections would stand on. If someone wants to go about with video goggles which replace billboards with waterfalls or wildflowers, go for it. Develop the technology and release it.
I agree with you, and I hope this attitude becomes more widely held.
Waiving a bill for a thousand dollars isn't really costing them a thousand dollars because their underlying cost is much lower than that.

Do the math on how much the S3 bill would be if a million bots each with a 100Mbps cable connection would DDoS you for a month. A thousand dollars is too low by how many orders of magnitude?

You might get them to waive that, maybe, or maybe not. Even at their cost they'd never make it back from you. Do you have any guarantee that they will? What happens if they don't? What happens if they do it once, but the attack hasn't ended?

Mimetic frenzy is the engine behind accusatory networks (as we see with cancel culture) and revolutionary movements that result in incredible amounts of bloodshed and destruction when left unchecked. Refusing to accuse in one’s personal life and instead focusing on measured reaction as a counter-mimetic approach to these movements is the way to remain human in the midst of it all.
I loved living in NL (am Dutch), and would love to move back there, but financially it just doesn’t make sense.

Found it really hard to explain to my wife that:

Salary will decrease, cost of living will go up, income taxes will go up, VAT will also go up, QOL will stay roughly the same.

The only thing that I think is significantly better (and cheaper!) is the education.

>The missing piece here is that your skills are in such high demand that you don't need to act like a servant to your clients.

I think you said it all here.

I'm talking in a broad sense, that can be applied to any service with high or low demand, in terms of providing good customer service when you're starting out.

You're talking about power imbalances that allow you to provide - arguably - subpar customer service just because they don't have much choice due to high demand.

If demand increases they'll jump ship.

I'm saying this because you reminded me of some friends that do consulting for some big accounting systems, bragging that they lock clients under their contracts and software, only to leave them with crap customer support because the cost to change provider is too high - those clients are hostages basically.
Earlier this year I got a ReSpeaker mic for video conferencing, and it's been working great! I did have to upload the latest firmware once I got it. I then combined it with NoiseTorch for a basically perfect video chatting experience.

NoiseTorch detects speech and mutes the mic when you aren't speaking. I had tried Hushboard, which mutes the mic when you are typing, but sometimes I talk when I type. ReSpeaker is a microphone array, and it has a speaker output and can do noise cancelling on the mic from what is sent to the speaker. It was about $60.

They can even do A-B testing on the ads. Even if they lose some customers in line they can know they make more sales to compensate. Also they only really care about the 10% of customers who are totally addicted to the product and buy 90% of it. Those ones aren't leaving the line.

From his post back in Feb ‘21:

“A few weeks ago, my account on Hacker News, a Reddit like aggregation site for technology links, was banned. My five-year old account received zero warnings before I got a comment from a moderator. Recently, I also discovered from a friend that this website, BattlePenguin.com, has been shadow banned on Hacker News. To any user submitting one of my posts, the submission will look as if it’s successful and appear on the new page. However, if one switches to a private browser, they’ll find that the submission does not appear.”
Bitcoin is neither your wallet nor your bank account. Some people want to treat it like a wallet, others like a bank account, others like their account on a stock exchange, others as an investment vehicle, others as a hedge against the dollar, and I'm sure there are other comparisons that make sense to people. Ultimately, Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, which has both it's own unique benefits and it's own unique foibles.

... and I hope you realize that your bank account CAN be completely drained without the money being recoverable. If you're trying to say it can't, then might I suggest to watch some scam-baiting videos to see how those scammers operate, and how they try to do exactly that to the elderly and the unaware. You can call it a bug all you want, but it's quite possible to have your bank account drained; and, despite what others in this thread have said, an attacker can do that from thousands of miles away.
Seriously? I actually think gmail's spam filtering is brilliant - I probably average less than a single spam email a year that it doesn't catch.

Contrast that with every corporate email spam filter I've ever been subject to, which vary from "shit" to "OK", and Gmail is completely in another league.

> I would invest in learning Rails 7 and Hotwire

I'd definitely agree with Rails. IMHO it has been defining Web development for a long time. Even today patterns from Rails like are copied outside of the Rails context. Service Objects seem to be a recent example.

Hotwire seems definitely cool tech but after having been exposed to Ruby on Rails it's possible to go into various directions. (Classical server-side rendering, Hotwire or e.g. React-based SPAs)
I'm a solo coder in my private time and work at a big Enterprise full-time.

Keep it simple for your own. Use git, but you don't need CI. ( VS has an awesome publish option for example)

Know the tools you know and use them required. Sometimes there are frameworks that help you speedup coding *5 ( eg. A screenshot from a web page is much easier through node), but i know c# the best. So 85% of my projects are in. Net.

If you don't know a backend framework. Consider RoR because of it's scaffolding. Do you work on Windows, give Visual Studio community a try. Pick a framework that is batteries included ( registration, login ) without jwt in the beginning.

For my projects after work, using asp.net MVC with EF and using scaffolding is a 500% quicker turnaround ( easy) than using any SPA framework.

Don't do cloud, it's expensive and for enterprise. Self-Host with a cheap VPS. Maintenance isn't as much as many claim. Implement some security measures! ( Private key ssh, firewall ( is always free)... )

What's your goal? Create your projects as cheap as possible and as fast as possible, if it doesn't gain traction. Then you could take above into consideration and use boring technology ( http://boringtechnology.club/ )

Is it purely to learn? Do some certifications about the cloud and spend halve a year learning non transferable skills with vendor lock in ( AWS, Azure, GKE, ...)
Welcome to the illogical world of logic.

If the number 6 was both prime and even it would disprove the implication

X prime and X != 2 -> X odd

But so long as the left hand side is false, the facts are compatible with the implication so it is ‘true’.

I am fascinated with all of the ways logic breaks down as you try to use it as a tool for decision making. Conventional programming languages assume that events happen in some specific sequence, but in the case of logic you can work forwards or backwards. A practical system needs to be restrained from trying to infer true but irrelevant facts. Kurt Godel’s work indicates just one kind of trouble logic can get you into but the problems of reasoning with uncertainty are an absolute bear unless you impose a causal structure of some kind.

So I am on the side of McCoy vs Spock and think ‘rationalists’ just call themselves that so they can accuse everyone else at being irrational. Logic will probably disappoint you like it disappointed Whitehead and Russel.
Putting a vaccine out quickly, part 3
>and a very very small number of them have had negative outcomes.

There's no method to report adverse event, unless you go to VAERS and report it. Since coverage of negative effects will reduce the effectiveness of the propaganda being pushed, there's little coverage of adverse events, enabling the narrative to continue.

The CDC also doesn't consider people as fully vaccinated until 14 days after the 2nd injection, enabling them to skirt attribution of hospitalization or deaths that occur after the Jab.

Look at the VAERS charts of adverse events & vaccine deaths reported in 2021 VEARS compared to all other vaccines, as a starting point...

MacPorts has active support. Join macports-users@lists.macports.org and report your issue, you get instruction from members of the listserv within minutes. Report a bug, and it is routed and assigned within the hour, usually solved within days. Sometimes bugs take a little longer to solve, but generally they always are. In regards to Homebrew support, what are you referring to? I can't find any active Homebrew support, just the FAQ which details what isn't supported and gives lame reasons why.
As long as you have people unemployed, there will be no labor shortage, everything else is just an excuse.

If workers need training, why don't companies train them? The majority of workers can't afford training, they barely afford home and food.

Why companies don't train workers? Because they don't want to pay, so they blame workers for not having enough training thus shifting the labor shortage cause to workers, not to themselves.
