>implicitly trying to use your nuclear deterrent to protect a conventional asset

That's the point and what US does already.

Flip situation around, PRC conventional and nuclear infra is deliberately entangled to deter conventional attacks, but US planning may still attempt to hit these targets anyway. There's enough think tank papers out there that presumes US will attack targets on PRC soil with the unspoken assumption that PRC will be a rational actor and not launch on warning to indomitable standoff attacks launched from US delivery vehicles indistinguishable from strategic platforms. So why wouldn't PRC launch on warning from these type of attacks (apart from alleged no first use)? Because US has overwhelming second strike capability and even if PRC can rationalize US strike as conventional, ultimately they don't know for sure and is resigned to wait for determination regardless. Maybe they'll have ABM to intercept or try to shoot a few AA or conduct ASW in the meantime in anticipation that attack was conventional, but those are the conventional actions the escalation ladder affords.

The point is precisely to calibrate costs and resign decision making to second strike anyway. Structure deterrence and nuclear doctrine weapons so launch on warning becomes unthinkable to create escalation environment that allows conventional ir/cbm use. Hence PRC no first strike policy, and nuclear build up for credible second strike, and rocket force doctrine that they _will_ use conventional ir/icbms in force on force scenarios. All developments to spell out that PRC will definitely be using these hypersonic platforms, so work that into the strategic game theory. Otherwise why have such conventional capabilities in the first place? They're not for show just like US conventional capabilities aren't.

Shift 3-5 up. I don't think the new WTC holds close to the same brand recognition as The Twins.

Personally I'd probably rank the Top-5 post 9/11 as:

1. Statue of Liberty

2. Empire State Building

3. Times Square

4. Rockefeller Center

5. Chrysler Building

There's probably some fair arguments that these other buildings could make the top-5. In particular I think you could possibly swap out one of Rockefeller Center or The Chrysler Building for any of the below.

1. Yankee Stadium (well pretend Old and New are similar enough)

2. The Gugenheim

3. Madison Square Garden (I might be stretching with this one)
Maybe once gigabit internet service becomes more widely available, but even for something like a consumer NAS you’re probably bottlenecked by something else no?

I'm not sure what value your harsh tone adds to your comment. Sharing experiences like this publicly benefits everyone. It obviously exposes blindspots in one's knowledge and it is expected that noone knows everything. That is the point of the. Comments functionality in HN. So that we can all share things that we know and absorb things we don't.

I personally enjoyed this article and learnt a few things from it. I learnt a few things from your comment too but it would have been better without all the harsh words.
EU should ban energy-intensive mode of crypto mining, regulator says
(Sorry for the FT paywall; can't find a second source)

Erik Thedéen, vice-chair of the European Securities and Markets Authority, told the Financial Times that bitcoin mining had become a “national issue” for his native country Sweden and warned that cryptocurrencies posed a risk to meeting climate change goals in the Paris agreement.

Thedéen said that European regulators should consider banning a mining method known as “proof of work” and instead nudge the industry towards the less energy-intensive “proof of stake” model to cut down on the sector’s vast power usage.
Yes, four 1MT explosions in a spaced square do more damage than a single 4MT in the centre of that square, plus if one of them is a dud or completely misses the target then the target is still effectively destroyed by the others. (Not the case if the single large weapon fails). Also, small weapons means more warheads per missile, some of which can be decoys - which increases the chances of defeating any anti-ballistic missile system.
It depends on the GNSS chipset in the phone, but usually it'll be all the GNSS satellites visible in the sky, from all major constellations. The current Android platform supports GPS, SBAS, GLONASS, QZSS, BEIDOU, GALILEO, and IRNSS[0].

Each satellite adds another constraint, which helps, and with more satellites to choose from, you can drop the weakest or worst measurements.

This reminds me of people in Soviet Union who chose to write “Russian” as their ethnicity in passport despite different ancestry (yes, there was such section in Soviet and later Russian passports until 1990s). Indigenous people of Siberia or Caucasus, Germans and Jews too familiar of ethnic prejudices were redefining their identity to open career opportunities. You could take either ethnicity of your father or your mother, being Russian was often considered the safest bet.
Ehhhh, there was a lot of incentive to botnet vulnerable machines.

I agree it's not only deterrance (cops cared just as little when my gps was stolen in a good neighborhood versus in a bad one). You still need to ability to compare risk versus reward sanely. People I've known who couldn't hold a job always had emotional/mental issues. They hated authority so much they'd rather be unemployeed than have a boss telling them what to do. If they did have a job they'd sabotoge it one way or another.

If you did lose your livelihood I suspect you would fare better due to the same impulse control and ability to delay gratification that led you to be temporarily wealthy in the first place.
> It was sickening. I enjoyed my job, and I didn't mind if criminals were caught and prosecuted, but the attitude that led to jokes like that didn't sit well with me.

Sounds more like dark humor. If one had a job like that for too long, watching people get off scott free much of the time, I’m sure more than a little bit of dark humor would develop.
What you'll find in a lot of workplaces you can't automate judgement of something like a book, because of the management's ever shifting definition of what they want.

Twilight is a big hit, and suddenly they want a bunch of teen paranormal romance, and it's even fine if it's poorly written by normal standards if it has the right themes. Your AI from before is largely useless.
IIRC the Linux support was there solely so that Sony could circumvent tariffs in the EU.

Gaming consoles had higher tariffs than "general purpose computers", so Sony added the ability to boot into Linux and argued - successfully - that it was a general purpose computing device and thus in the lower tariff category.

One of us does not understand how that works. According to me you need to acquire read/write locks in order to ensure consistency in presence of a writer. You can't do that by reading ranges of a static file with independent read requests.
Thanks for the pointer, those are difficult to find via search.
Cool! Were you involved in GPS/localization R&D back then?
Instagram used to be the perfect social network. You only saw what you followed and there were clear anti-addiction mechanisms: “you’re all finished” and then historical posts if you were at the end; stories being not lit up if you view them; stuff like that.

Now at the bottom of my feed is random high engagement stuff. Yeah, dude, I looove photos of space and shit. But I also scroll loop on them. That’s why I trusted Instagram.

Now I’ve noticed my behavior is so weird. I go on Instagram and I have a resistance to scroll down because I know there’s scroll bait down there.

Don’t even mind ads. Just scroll bait. I think we both know that was an intentional choice to add that at the end.
Many people got a very bad impression from Oculus DKs and the Vive. Vive basically was a half baked tech demo compared to the new hardware. Terrible lenses, very heavy and uncomfortable, possibly the worst controllers ever made. VR (Quest 2, Index) is actually good now, 5 years on from that - give it another shot.
I spent a weekend playing around with Remix, and it didn't fail to deliver. I don't think you have anything to worry about.
I can highly recommend the interview with Jason Gregory of Naughty Dog from Handmadecon 2016. He gives a lot of insight into the reality of working with the scheme-based format in recent-ish times.

https://guide.handmadehero.org/hmcon/2016/05/

My impression isn't that scheme is being passed out just because Sony doesn't like it, but also because the language has issues. On the other hand, it seems they're putting a lot of effort into getting the nice scheme features, like hot reloading, in their C++ environment.

Passthrough is available for all apps for a while now

https://youtu.be/Qd6cTbm_HDE

But I don't think that includes keyboard passthrough only. So it would be trivial to make a fully passtrhough app but not one where only the keyboard is visible. Unless you make that static and ensure that the keyboard does not move
Ultimately it is more useful and impactful for individuals that the economy and incomes grow per capita.

The economy may shrink overall with the decreasing population, but people may still become better off individually.
“Starting to become” implies that they haven’t already been like that for some time.

Look up the shenanigans with the LA County sheriffs department essentially stealing property owned by LADWP to build an illegal helicopter pad near the sheriff’s residence.

Or how the county sheriff just brazenly ignores court summons.

Or look at the crazy manhunt that left several citizens dead because the LA city police didn’t want a former-marine police trainee to spill the beans on how they routinely abused arrestees.
NAS with SSD can go way faster than the ~ 120 MB/s 1GbE can offer. For NAS with HDD, the benefit is not as big but still there.

Also, the main competition is WiFi which is significantly slower than 1GbE in most cases.

There's a story called "Memorial" by Theodore Sturgeon, from 1946, where humanity doesn't learn its lesson after the first nuclear war that is triggered by accident.

The ending (after the second war) referred to "half-stooping, naked things whose twisted heredity could have been traced to mankind." and said something about how, since they could be frightened, they were definitely not human any more.

I tried with the Samsung Odyssey+ a few times. I used the counterbalance and extra support kit (it is a bit heavy), and it's quite nice with those. Still some pressure on my nose bridge, so have a bit of adjustment to do. Touch typing takes a bit of getting used to, but it works well enough. I already am using a trackball 100% of the time (I know, I'm a monster), so I don't have to worry about knocking stuff over with my mouse.

The real problem is that since I have a WMR headset, none of the really good virtual desktop softwares people use are available. The ones that are, aren't that great, for various reasons.

Then there's the issue that my laptop is a surface book 2. Powerful enough to run VR smoothly, but while the system fan is blasting at full volume the whole time. Also it seems to slowly drain the battery. So it's really not an all day affair regardless of usability.

I don't want to use my gaming PC (which is more than up to the task), because then I have to basically let my company own it, in order to meet the security policy requirements. I'm concerned if I do that, that I'll never really get all the bits off again short of a reimage. I haven't ruled out buying a dedicated HDD to swap out (I have a hot swap bay).

As a user I like paged results when I sort by a key (maybe a timestamp) and want to look at the records around the one I found. However in a large dataset I always use a search filter.

As a developer without a specific requirement if the time is short (it always is) I create a paged navigation using the defaults of the framework I'm using. Then the customer might or might not ask for a search filter. If frameworks defaulted on search filters I'd give customers them first and paged navigation if requested.
So why nobody is doing it right then, still?

Everybody is prone to Unicode confusables attacks, and almost nobody checks for invalid chars. Almost nobody can search Unicode strings, almost nobody implemented identifiable identifiers.

A review by Bill Gates: https://www.gatesnotes.com/Books/Army-of-None
I wonder how good “public transport” could be if it matched the money inflows of private cars. Possibly amazing.

Think customisable bus routes, cheap subsidised taxis, a fast bus every small-n minutes and so on.

Clearly we won’t find out as it’s a massive sunk cost, but I think this alternative reality could be great.

Having lived in places with both amazing and terrible public transport, I understand the skeptics, but also know just how amazing public transport can be.
If you burn carbon, you can just decrease your air input to furnace. It is not done today because it causes lots of CO, which is very poisonous. If you don't care about CO like in this process, you an put O2 sensor (lambda sensor, used in all new cars to alter how much air is used) and almost eliminate oxygen from your output.

I came from the Soviet Union and these kinds of debates smell like 1937, like Lysenkoism, like Soviet doctors trials, etc etc. On one hand we have scientists that are probing the nature of reality and on the other we have politically opportune believers slash do-gooders, ready to paint the science on a political canvas, hurting the science, the scientists, and the progress itself.

> Why would they?

Because one idea is that they have to feed their children. It’s an urgent, desperate need. They are not doing it for fun, they don’t want to be criminals.

Well, it is easy to explain stealing a bag of beans to a judge, and most of all, to the starving children at home, than justifying waiting for a train, cutting the lock, getting the luxury Louis Vuitton sunglasses, bringing them home, putting them up for sale on Craigslist and waiting for offers, so then, they can finally go to the store and buy the bag of beans.

The story of feeding hungry kids doesn’t work as well in the later case.

In my own experience, the biggest hurdle to not work more in VR is headset ergonomics. When we will have lighter and more comfortable headsets, it will be a great experience. As you mentioned, screen resolution is already good enough and keyboard passthrough is pure magic.
Validates my decision to self-host and donate to Baby Buddy: https://github.com/babybuddy/babybuddy

I figured all those “free” (and possibly even the paid) baby apps were likely doing all sorts of shady things with that data. One thing for me to use a period/fertility tracker for myself - quite another to throw my child’s data up to god knows who for god knows what ends long before he could possibly consent.

If you don’t know why it matters how many diapers there have been in the last 24 hours and what kind of mess was in there, along with how often and how much milk was consumed, you’ve obviously not been the primary caretaker of an infant recently. If you don’t know why you’d want an app for that, ditto - “mommy brain” is real.

Pro-tip: set up and test your Baby Buddy instance well before your due date - including having your partner try using it on their device.
Again, I lived this experiment. I have never seen people so dehumanized and so insensitive to other's suffering like when their basic needs were "taken care of" by the state. I am talking orphanages full of children with deformed bones because they never saw the light of day. Prisons where abject torture was wide-spread and routine. Gulags.

Today's Western people, in comparison, are angels.

You know why communes failed? Because everyone was stealing - from workers to guardians, even those in charge were stealing. You know why they stole? Because they were starving. You know why they were starving? Because they couldn't buy the food they needed. Why? Because there was no profit motive for others to provide that food.

People don't work the way you think they do. Until you understand that, you'll spread suffering instead of reducing it.
Well fwiw software titles are bs. I really liked this article[1] where (among other things) they say:

> The primary skill of senior engineers is to train junior engineers. If you’re senior with no junior around, you’re not senior.

and

> Under that lens, the term “junior” just means “someone who has done less, and/or has less experience with, a specific task or tasks in a specific domain”, by contrast with “senior”. In other words, junior/senior is domain-dependent and team-dependent: we can be senior in one field (e.g. databases, containers), junior in another (e.g. frontend, machine learning). We can be senior relative to one team, and junior relative to another.

To suggest that you're not a senior developer because you take you're effected negatively by a lot of context switching is just blaming your manager's problems on you. Using a situational[2] senior position, you surely would meet the requirements. Note that neither of those deal with iteration speed or context switching, what a stupid metric.

Maybe you would do better in an actual senior role where you're doing more mentoring/overseeing rather than direct coding and bouncing around in tons of different code bases.
