I never stated RUA/RUF were required.

My intent was to state that the parent I was replying to implied "services" or "servers" were required to collect and/or process reporting. One can simply collect reporting and process offline or simply consume manually. I do this, personally, for a few low email volume domains I own. You can't get RUA/RUF any other way.
>it's not quite that simple.

It is.

>launched their invasion

You are reproducing Russian propaganda planted all over the English speaking internet. About Russia's desire to secure itself through buffer zones, when in reality it's just plain old imperialism.

Geographical buffer zones and natural borders like mountains are mostly irrelevant for modern air-superiority dominated warfare. It's not 1940s anymore. US expeditionary force is delivered by the sea. An attack could already be launched from the Baltic states, since about 2004. And Putin perfectly knows that nobody would attack a state that has the highest number nuclear warheads in the world.

Ascribing some level of care for Russian interests and security to someone like Putin is the height of naivete. Putin will leave Russia much much weaker and thus less secure after his death, than the 99 other timelines, where it isn't ruled by an egotistical wannabe tsar. He only cares about himself, his family and his friends, and that's it.

If he truly cared about Russian future he wouldn't have started the current conflict with Ukraine that's been going on since 2014, because the economic losses from that over 2-3 decades are tremendous. A difference in 2-3 percentage points of GDP growth results in several times the economy size of losses. And further escalation would cripple the economy even more.
Ah you’re completely right.
Nope, sane projects would have 1 TLD they have names under and clients opt-in to resolution. Handshake is awful because it pretends it has the right to control the root and adds TLDs in such a way that there's no way to tell if a given domain needs to be resolved with handshake. Also it allows for numerical names which could collide with IPs. Don't use Handshake. ENS is also bad (no SPV, you usually end up relying on Infura), "Unstoppable" domains has all the problems of ENS, plus too many TLDs, and names can only be registered through the official servers. NameCoin might be ok, haven't looked into it too much. EmerCoin promises too much which makes me suspicious. (Like blockchain VoIP? What?) If I missed any, please let me know.
It's certainly a bad technical measure, but then stacks of CDROMs could all be super sparsely populated, those human capillaries going around the world are stretchy, etc. I think it's a reasonable metric for huge quantities of data when communicating to the general public - you can specify the movie to narrow it too.

So "the LHC produces 90 Petabytes of data per year, that's the same amount of data as streaming Avengers Endgame in 4K high-definition 40 million times! Bet their ISP wishes they hadn't offered them the unlimited data package!!" yadda-yadda?

China is on the opposite, for example, there will be over 10 million college graduates in China in the coming summer.

However, Chinese graduates are in a similar situation as US college graduates.

It's hard to find a decent job with a college degree. The college degree was once the premium but now more like a baseline in many industrials. Now China wants to push more young men to go to the professional education track.

But the challenge is there are more issues in professional education than in college education here.
> People making their own remixes and becoming too powerful, rhythmically? No.

Yes, actually. It's not uncommon for remixes to be taken down.
> It's not a perfect correlation but it's certainly easier to find better candidates if you can offer them more

Ah, but that wasn't the claim - the claim was that people who get the $200k jobs are not good enough to get the $1m jobs. My counter-claim is that the people who are actually in the higher paying jobs are not always better.

You may be able to attract better people by offering more, but that's not necessarily relevant to the hiring processes that result in the people who have those $1m jobs getting to where they are. I've seen flat-out useless sycophants holding on to high paid roles because of basically office politics and industry connections.

What I am getting from you are a lot of defenses and very little substance. You can claim to have nuanced opinions and no interest in discussing them, but then why are you even talking to me? What is the point of declaring that go is bad, if you are unwilling to discuss it? Is that supposed to be persuasive? I'm here to have a discussion on a discussion board. Your position is inconsistent with your actions.

Also: I don’t believe you. You have provided no evidence that you actually have a nuanced opinion, you’ve simply insisted upon it it’s possibility. And I don’t think there’s any reason I should believe you.

> If you want to say that artificially inflated prices due to e.g. a monopoly

Perhaps you misread, but I am saying opposite of both. I am saying that both Apple's prices are not high, proven by number of people agreeing to pay them in a market where other options to distribute an app exist, and that Apple does not have a monopoly.

> What if Apple also decided that every transaction made through their browser had to give them a cut... but I think it's pretty clear that this would be anti-competitive.

It is not pretty clear? There are plenty other options on the market in terms of a browser.

> They might not have a monopoly on smartphones/devices, but they have such a large share that boycotting them isn't really an option.

At least we can agree that Apple does not have a monopoly. Everything else is market forces at play. My argument was that the price set by Apple for distribution is such that it is acceptable to majority of developers. If Apple set an unreasonable price instead, say 70% cut, I am sure that a lot of developers would simply not develop for iOS, nor would iOS achieve same reach it has. Thus we can only conclude that Apple carefully picked a price which is both acceptable by vast number of people and maximizes Apple's revenue at the same time. This is free market at its finest.
No they are just dishonest:

"...This is what Steve Jobs did about the fact of how he tricked his best friend into working all night long for several days and then cheating him out of his paycheck. This proved to be only the first offense in a long litany of his penchant for pettiness and pointless cruelty.

The friend that I am talking about is Steve Wozniak, him and Jobs were working at Atari, one of the first video game consoles which revolutionized the video game market. The owner of Atari at the time was its actual founder by the name of Nolan Bushnell.

The first game that came out was “Pong,” a classic which many people remember. Due to its high success, Bushnell thought of making a sequel that would be only a single-player and call it “Breakout” in 1975.

...For this project, Bushnell was thinking of tasking Steve Jobs to be in charge and take care of the project. Jobs was considered (at the time) a low-level Atari technician with huge potential. As this game was expected to be much better than its predecessor, Jobs recruited Steve Wozniak, who was known on the market as the better engineer. ..

Jobs and Wozniak had been friends for quite some time at that point. They both were working towards the Apple 1 which would follow to become the most iconic computer around the world for four long years so they got to spend a lot of time together.

The way that Atari worked was by offering a monetary bonus for every chip fewer than fifty that was used when building a game. Wozniak was ecstatic when Jobs asked him to help with this big project.

This is when Jobs started to lie to Wozniak in order to use him for his expertise. He told Wozniak that the deadline was four days and that he had to use as few chips as possible. The truth is that Jobs was given a whole month for this project, not four days.

Jobs never told Wozniak about the bonus for using fewer chips and the four-day deadline was self-imposed by Jobs, as he needed to get back to his commune farm to help bring in the apple harvest. It is imperative to mention (for those who are not aware) that Steve Jobs came from a very poor background.

Wozniak was working for Hewlett-Packard at the time as well, so he had to balance his main job as well as this project. So he would end up going to his job in the day time and spending most of the night working on “Breakout”. The only thing that Steve did was implementing the required chips, making sure that there were less than fifty chips. Their herculean efforts succeeded, as they finished the game in four days and only using forty-five chips.

When payday came, Steve Jobs only gave Wozniak half the pay, he kept the rest of his pay as well as the bonus for himself. Wozniak only found out about this ten years later..."

> I don't think they're sitting at a board room table saying "We cannot let them have freedom, we must control everything they do".

That's pretty much what they said. Not with those words but that's essentially their thought process.

They literally want to control how you view the videos. Maybe you think YouTube sucks and would rather use mpv with youtube-dl. According to these guys, you can't because reasons nobody really cares about. It's honestly offensive enough that they think they have any say in the matter.
That's interesting. I don't personally pirate music (I like collecting CDs), but I know there are much better ways to do so. Some streaming services are so laughably insecure that you can straight up download lossless FLAC from them if you know where to look.
Even at the 130M rows range, you should still be able to take advantage of indexes for fast queries beyond just the primary key. It's been a while since I used mysql, but around 2010 I was working on mysql 5.something and we had several >100M row tables that could still serve indexed queries very quickly (sub ms, or couple ms, iirc). If you are not able to do this, I suggest looking into mysql config and adding/tuning indexes.
But yes count(*) will be slow, I'm not aware of good workarounds for that other than caching or using table stats with postgres (if you don't need perfect accuracy) - not sure if mysql supports similar.
His interpretation of the vast literature he has read leads him to recommend a whole-food, plant-based diet. That's vegan, but so is beer and oreos, so there's a distinction.

I literally own my lastname as a Handshake TLD. I got it way back in September 2020, when they were still slowly releasing them. I love the idea of using first.lastname. It's great branding. However, my personal benchmark is can I hand a random person a business card and expect them to be able to visit my site. The answer to that right now is very clearly no and so it sits unused.

Adoption by default is a huge deal and you can't ignore it by saying that something "can" use it if you configure your router properly or this and that. The vast majority of people will never change it. Re. Firefox, I just tried switching it to NextDNS, but it seems like the default NextDNS resolver does not resolve Handshake domains.

Putting aside all the issues with DANE as a replacement to HTTPS, no browser supports it. This is why I don't use my handshake TLD for my personal/internal sites either.

Look, actual Handshake adoption would benefit me quite a bit, since I own a great TLD. I will keep an eye on adoption, but its very clearly a long road, and the project itself has a number of issues besides just adoption. It's cool, but you have to be realistic.
That seems like a lot of revisionist history. From what I've seen GTK never had good cross-platform development support. Programs like GIMP and Inkscape always looked and behaved very oddly to me on other platforms. The little support that's there is because interested parties contributed it. If this is what you want, it's self-defeating to refuse to contribute it.

If you do not want to use Rust, you can always use another language like Python or Javascript. I might be misunderstanding because the rest of your complaints are jumping around a lot, it would be easier to understand what you're talking about if you shared some code illustrating what the problem is.
I once compiled a load of data that I consistently close more tickets, close more story points, commit more lines of code, more number of commits, etc compared to my coworkers with the same or similar title.

Justices are specifically chosen for their liberal or conservative ideology and perceived loyalty in hopes of ruling in favor of the party in power's long term agenda. Republicans appoint conservative justices, Democrats appoint liberal judges. Both assume quid pro quo. Ignoring this fact is simply naive.

Spoken like an armchair designer, with a huge bias at that.

Game designers know that you have to splice in boring moments into their games so that the next dopamine shot has more impact. You can't do 100% fun all of the time. This is why god of war is peppered with puzzles to break the sequence.

The general consensus is that AS IS isn't enough to protect you against implied warranties, because - despite the language of the UCC - some courts are freaking idiots.

https://casetext.com/case/gaylord-v-lawler-mobile-homes-inc

Why did you choose not to disclaim the big four implied warranties that nearly all open source licenses disclaim?

Even BSD (the worst drafted license ever) explicitly disclaims two of the four (MIT and some forms of ISC get all three that realistically would apply to non-tangible property, and Apache 2.0 disclaims all four just to be safe). So it's a bit of a head-scratcher why you'd draft a license that incurs that legal risk.
I agree with what you said, except the part about stealing from "wall street". Most of that money is stolen from regular people's investments and pension funds.

Iced looks pretty cool but it's focused on being a cross-platform toolkit and will probably not ever be the best choice for making programs native to Linux, like a desktop environment. If you thought there were enough problems between GTK and Qt with skinning, fonts, keybindings, and all that stuff, adding another toolkit to the mix just makes it worse.
With WFH implemented in a lot of companies, maybe it's easier and more fruitful to get up early and use the morning hours to work on hobbies and learning.

Unless you are one of the lucky whose work involve a lot of brain juice spending, you probably feel tired because of something else. It could be office politics or endlessly pinging a colleague for permission to get real work rolled out. But neither of the situation involves a lot of brain juice and it's a total waste of energy. It is as if someone depreciate a battery not by connecting it to a circuit, but by slowly burning it on fire.

By switching hobbies and learning, which probably need more brain juice, to morning hours, we spend energy more meaningfully, while not impacting our jobs by much. It introduces additional bonus that we can actually sit down and watch TV or play with kids without burning with anxiety. It's the ideal model IMHO.
You can do that. And I like the idea. But for now, torrents are the go to method of sharing large pieces of data, and utilizing IPFS to move the centralized aspect of torrents to a decentralized space is a good idea.
Industrial infrastructure: factories, skilled workers, STEM graduates, specialised industrial knowledge.

90% or more of that has disappeared from the US since the late 1980s. Mostly that has come from the financialisation of US industry whereby (ferinstance) the aviation designers and engineers in Boeing's management have been displaced by MBAs and Accountants whose raison d'etre is to make big profits rather than excellent aircraft. Or else by outsourcing manufacturing from the US to other countries, just to increase profits due to lower manufacturing costs. Absolutely great for the financials of a particular company, absolutely bad for the US as a whole.

Then again, the skilled workers in the US have been replaced by skilled workers in China, Vietnam, et al because they didn't cost as much as US skilled workers did. The fact that there are now very few skilled workers in the US is because those skilled workers that used to exist have retired or died off long ago.

Trump reckoned he could get companies to return to the US from China. It didn't happen: no more skilled workers and no more factories for them to use anyway, if perchance there were any workers who remained in a particular field.

When it comes to getting new aviation engineers (for instance) the US doesn't produce enough STEM graduates to have a big enough reservoir to draw from.

Specialised industrial knowledge is a whole field of its own. The US periodically states that it is going back to the Moon. Fat chance. The specialised industrial knowledge has evaporated, such as working in specialised materials like titanium, solid-fuel propellants, liquid-oxygen high-speed pumps, or specialised software for on-board computers for astronaut pilots, or even Space-operations-oriented planners like Wernher von Braun or Gene Kranz, even down to the guys who could transport a loaded space craft from the assembly building to the launch-pad a mile or two away. Come to think of it, do those huge, slow transporter machines themselves exist any more?

By the way, the US still imports rocket motors from Russia. Rockets whose 40-50 year-old design is better and cheaper than the US can produce today, hence why they still get imported.
