Earthquake is part of it. However culture is also part. Houses are built to last 20 years: even if you like where you live they still assume you will be rebuilding in 20 years. As such they can cut corners to save money - no problem so long as you rebuild every 20 years.
So, a cave in a basalt mountain then.

It's remarkable to turn on CNBC this morning and see nothing about Sony's new VR tech while just a few weeks ago they were breathlessly devoting so much coverage to Meta's shift to the "metaverse."

Sony is delivering version 2 of a well liked product platform that hosted a bunch of good games. This achievement is already well beyond so many other competitors that either only have vaporware hype or decent tech but with no compelling software.
> worthy of a G7 membership

What makes a country "worthy" of G7 membership? Does constant war-waging disqualifies a country from G7? Unfair treatment of a minority group, perhaps?

I'd argue that expecting countries/organisations to behave like virtuous individuals would be too naïve.

Also I feel Japanese honour is more about loyalty than ethics. Trying to shame them for tolerating crime syndicates probably won't make a difference.
> The first copy ... cannot be modified after manufacture

A second flash chip with a write disable line would also work, but that's not what you described. For one difference, it allows for evil maid attacks with an external flasher.

> But they try to sell people the "security processor" as a feature. It's important to make everyone aware of what it really is.

I agree, but it's not productive to just unilaterally define "security processor" the other way and talk past the problem. Either qualify it ("user representing security processor"), or otherwise make it clear that "security" doesn't always imply something good for the user (in fact in consumer marketing material it's more often harmful than good).

exactly, i recently mentioned my swaying-in-an-earthquake story[0], which was in a class A (steel+concrete) highrise office building. driving steel into the ground doesn't automatically mean it will rot and/or break in the first earthquake/windstorm that hits, even if that's a general possibility, given that engineers do think about that stuff when designing buildings. the gp comment is classic bullshit, plausible sounding but unconcerned with truth.

they promote "written in Rust" more than the product

Tangentially related: I’ve wondered what would happen if you purchased a domain name that had previously been owned by someone else and they had obtained a TLS certificate from a CA with an expiration date beyond when your ownership began. This seems like a good tool to find such a certificate, but if you found one what would you do? Would the holder of the certificate be able to MITM or otherwise impersonate you? Would there be a way to revoke the certificate (I’m guessing you could contact the CA that issued it?)? Do CAs automatically revoke certificates when domain ownership changes?
Sweden doesn't want fake news to influence their elections. That makes sense.

The government of Sweden is going to influence/control what news gets reported that affects elections in Sweden. That's... much scarier. It's creating a tool for tyrants. It may be done with the best of intentions, and current events may be showing the need, but... do you really trust the sitting government to control the news leading up to an election? If you do, do you trust the next one to do so?
Not every location does the same thing though. ASML has bought other companies that were key suppliers to them. Like Berliner Glas Group in 2020 which is located in Berlin and is where the accident happened. No other location of ASML will be able to compensate for production losses there.
That's great! I fell in love with Wireguard after using OpenVPN for years and donated a small amount. Sure they're drops in the bucket, but they add up if more people get out of the mindset that their contribution is negligible. What's more is the author can get some form of feedback.
Good idea! I’ll have to give this a spin, I like the idea of “nebula but wireguard”.
Thanks. Just checked and j/k are actually not implemented yet, so that explains that!
My considerable efforts to the contrary notwithstanding, it is clear to me that some people take the wrong message from my OneBag.com site. Usually they do so as a consequence of a superficial reading of the information to be found there. Arguably the most important advice there is to be found on the "Using a Packing List" page, which attempts to make the case that if you have nothing to measure, you have nothing to control. The section people tend to focus on is the "A Packing List" one, which lists examples of the items that are on MY packing list (note the title's use of the indefinite article); there is no stricture, however, that they should be on YOUR list, only that you should HAVE a list (see first point).

Would you be giving everyone in your network direct access to your management gui? If the clients are just running wireguard and their own copy of an interface, would you be fine? Your friends are interacting with your copy of wireguard not Netmaker. (This comment applies to their future roadmap moreso than their current offering.)
Very easily - for example it can just dump any sequences in memory that look like encryption keys and send them to the mothership.

This can be initiated through the actual "owners" of this chip or the next malware authors that exploit this undocumented black box that received zero scrutiny by the public security community.

My GR1 26L has been an ideal travel companion, I was on the road with that, a rolling bag, and a shoulder suit duffle, for the better part of three years.

On my third rolling bag and suit duffle, the GR1 is untouched. It has been hosed out a few times.

This thing is coming with me if I lit out, and no mistake.
Previous discussion (previous GitHub repository seems to have been deleted): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5340181

The title should probably contain a reference to the year since it has last been updated (2012).

I'd like to point out that the following statement from the cheat sheet is incorrect:

# Checksum a file (safer algorithm with no hash collisions):
sha1sum

Since there are only 2^160 possible SHA-1 checksums, but an infinite number of possible documents, there MUST be an infinite number of documents that map to the same SHA-1 checksum due to the pigeonhole principle.

Examples for such documents have been found since the original cheat sheet has been published: https://shattered.io/ It is now trivial to produce an arbitrary number of documents with hash collisions, although it is not trivial (yet?) to find a second document which has the same checksum as a specific document.
This is a feature. It means every process doesn't have its own copy of Chrome.

It might mean more testing for developers, but it's a benefit for users.
There's another bias here that available materials were very different 1000 years ago.

Designing with WW2 in mind is preparing for the next conflict based on the last one. Climate change will have implications, which tend to come out as fire and flooding. This will impact siting.
Taxis also charge by the minute in many cities (in the U.S.) to account for traffic delays. In L.A., it's $0.30 for every 37 seconds spent waiting in traffic. (There is no charge for time spent on the move, as that is folded into the distance-based charge.)

EDIT: If the guy had taken a taxi instead of an Uber, they would not have been able to levy additional charges what he paid (which raised his bill from $200 to $600). That's the downside to Uber and Lyft: the price you see in the app is not the final price. In a taxi, it is.
Yep, it was spooky. Between my house and the fire was nothing but an open expanse of tall grass prairie and route 128. Had a clear view of the fires, especially at night. We were under pre-evac orders in case the wind shifted. I had a few former colleagues who lost homes. I'm grateful that the loss of life was as low as it was.

Regarding public transit in Denver, I avoid it like the plague. If I'm by myself, I'm a lot more tolerant of it. But I can't take my kids to public places in downtown Denver anymore, including the transit. When my daughter was 4, I had her on my shoulders on Mother's Day while we walked the 16th Street Mall. As we approached the Capitol, a violent altercation occurred within 30 feet of between two chronic drug addicts. One of them had a hiking pole, and he started beating and stabbing the other one. My daughter was terrified. That's just one incident, there are far more like it.

It blows my mind how the current crop of homeless (unhoused, or whatever moronically Orweillian term has been created to signal pious, virtuous sensitivity to ingroup members) activists have pushed the utterly failed policies of San Francisco in other cities. They result is what you and I are complaining about: public spaces that are decidedly unwelcoming and unsafe to children, elderly, and women. The policies seem to do nothing but funnel money to the non-profits that employ the nutbag activists. They certainly don't accomplish anything else. It's the equivalent of the neighborhood cat lady who puts bowls of food out for strays claiming she's a wildlife rehabilitation specialist.
Ok, so just ad hominem then I guess. Lazy and a disservice to yourself and anyone suffering from this.

A right turn on red light could still run over a pedestrian quite easily. Texting while in a jam will just add delay when the jam unlocks. If you keep texting after, then it's a different story (and you are moving).

Oh sorry, I didn't mean to mislead! I don't own either model, I just am disucssing my experiences as a user. See my sister has both a puppy and a small child... Her and my brother-in-law have set up a combined SCaaS and PaaS called 'extended family'. As an early adopter (they call it "uncle" but whatever, silly naming has been a thing since "tweet"), I get more access than I can use to both small child and puppy. It's actually a great service if you're on the fence about getting your own, you can just send an SMS to 'extended family' and reserve some time. Most of the benefits of ownership, and when one of the defects littering this thread pops up, 'extended family' takes care of all the maintenance.

My best friend runs a similar service called "chosen family" and my early adopter title is "godfather" (i like that one, very mobster), but otherwise the service is basically the same.

If you're at all unsure about investing in small child or puppy, take a look around for a similar service to help with the decision!

The solution to cooking odors is to have adequate ventilation that exits the structure. It blows me away that this is not code in every kitchen and bathroom. I live in rules-heavy CA and my kitchen vent "exhausts" back into the kitchen.

Every time there are people gathering at someone's house, they tend to congregate in the kitchen as that's where the food action is all at. Give me one big open space with kitchen, dining space and a living room all in one. Open concept is highly desirable in modern housing.

> author has thought a lot about materials and buildings

> but not actually built anything.

That was my impression. As soon as they started talking about unenforced concrete pilings (drilled? monopile?) to bedrock and stressed steel framing I wasn't certain I would enjoy anymore or that it was a good use of my time.

I think costs at this stage are unrealistically low "probably in the neighborhood of $1000-2000 per square foot ... (8 to 16 times as much as conventional construction)". ~$250-400 sq ft is the cost of modern labour expediated and material optimized building. They're describing stainless steel framing with what would be (what?) 316 SS in S-beam with a custom end plate? A blob of rolled 1" x 6' 316 SS is $200.

There are the examples we could draw from:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_known_surviving...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%27Anse_aux_Meadows

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancestral_Puebloans

Material wise we'd look at clay, solid high-density rocks, non-ferrous metals (lead, aluminum, copper, tin), dense naturally mold resistant woods (cedar, redwood), high density with high oil content woods (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lignum_vitae), and easily replaceable sacrificial surfaces, dirt with live plant, cobble rock.

Building techniques aren't going to improve with technology, we already have examples that have lasted -- we're looking at building a heap temple with ancient style water and sewers. This is either a rock temple or a log-house with highly resistant woods.

Either we aim for a light-weight footprint or we find solid rock for building on. Solid rock is the most appropriate.

Our fasteners are all based on managing gravity. Rock with concave and convex connections under gravity. Wood pegs in non-load bearing configurations. Lead sheets with crimped folded seams. Solid copper sheet trays with crimped folded seams in rock trays.

The first thought should be "what happens if I drive a truck into the side of this building 10 times?" And the answer should be "not much, you move a few things around, but there is limited stressed coupling, and things rest on top of each other." If you do substantially damage the building, all you should be doing is reassembling the pile.

I called the author out for not having built anything, and in honesty, I haven't built using these ancient approaches, so, perhaps this is a self-destructing prophecy.
It's not the 'narrative' thats on the side of vaccines and actual useful therapeutics -- it's the vast majority of science.

You sound exactly like my elderly obese neighbor whose rationale for not getting vaccinated is "all those doctors who aren't getting it have to know something I don't". If 99% of scientists and doctors are on one side, and you need to resort to credentialism instead of actual research to prop up those who are on the other, you're not really standing on solid ground.

If ivermectin worked, it would have had signal in any of the dozens of trials we've run. If Malone had anything useful to say, he wouldn't be hanging out with Steve Bannon and Tucker Carlson and lying about "inventing MRNA and DNA vaccines" and whether vaccines are cytotoxic. These people are frauds and we'd all be better for saying that plainly.

While M1s definitely win in the efficiency category, the added efficiency is really not that useful for most people on a day to day basis.

Cellphones have moved away from replaceable batteries specifically because of fast charge. Most phones with 20 watt charging will reach ~50% battery in 30 mins, so even with battery degradation, you really don't notice the effect in day to day life.

Same thing with laptops, there really are very few situations where you don't have access to a charging port for ~6-8 hours.

Given that, Id personally rather take the hit on efficiency in return for way better compatibility, ability to run a full linux natively , and not deal with all the extra crap that Apple throws in the M1. And, If I really care about longevity, a second battery is easily an option for laptops like Frameworks.

The Peter Principle: "Every employee tends to rise to their level of incompetence"

In fact it's a consequence of individual interests trumping any collective/company interests. Selfishness trumping loyalty. Hey, it's the American way.

A clearer and less snappy interpretation:

"In companies/cultures with low cohesion, employees will tend to maximize their personal compensation at the expense of all other factors, including the aggregate performance of the company"
Yeah, that's another option, or clean the hotel by themselves like in the linked article. The risks of entrepreneurship.
I vaguely remember someone telling me, a long time ago, that Thomas Reps' PhD thesis

showed that it wasn't practical to build this kind of editor.
Perhaps that was not at all the point; it was a long time ago.

I wonder, though, can anyone explain 1) if Reps' thesis does bear on the Treefrog work 2) what it was in Reps' thesis that bears on the difficulty of making syntax-tree based code development tools?

True! I also find it fascinating that the first recipe in the linked article (Wroclaw Trencher Bread) includes beer as an ingredient, which has had a popular revival recently as a bread hack to add maltiness/flavor.

It's like an argument about vaccines between housewives - firstly neither side actually understands the areas being discussed - that evident from how discussion of nuclear technology shaped up.

Secondly the statement is poorly defined - you have different ideas about what counts as 'innovation'.

Third, it is quantitive, but none of the arguments/statements given by either side have any quantities attached.

I don't have a dog in the fight, but if your centered your argument around patents, or GDP growth, or research funding and papers, you would have a more productive discussion.

I was looking at linktree this week and considering similar - I feel it'll be good to have several different portals like this.

as far as clickit page goes - I see signup for free in top - and makes me think it's a trial and forced to pay at some point. Then I look for pricing info and find none - now I worry about the sustainability of it.

I see down on right "anyone to set up a webpage and display content catered to their audience." - does this mean literally anyone, like even 'my-tribes-evil-of-month', strumfrunts and similar?

seeing no terms or privacy policy - makes me think this is not a serious thing to spend any time at.
