If you don't feel like taking on that responsibility, don't do it.

But understand: the vast majority of human history is colored by a desire to grow a family in order to provide strength to their progeny knowing that they, in turn, will face an unkind future and can be protected, in some degree, by their kin.

Sounds like you're at the end of a multi-billion year winning streak. Your ancestors did well.

When he returns and begins pouring the fuel into the jetpack, only then does it register just how dicey this seems, and why jetpacks have been slow to be developed and adopted.

Yeah, no thanks.

I'm not sure what work's been done on interplanetary / space-based network security, but suspect it would have to be based on known secrets or keys, cached well ahead of time.

Certainly, any protocols based on handshakes would be a non-starter even at lunar distances (384,000 km, 1.28 light seconds), let alone interplanetary ones (20 minutes to Mars, up to 90 minutes to Jupiter).

At interstellar ranges, the problem becomes even more complex, with keys taking years to be received.

There are some preliminary discussions of space-based IP communications. I do suspect that UDP would be preferred over TCP, for obvious reasons.
They didn’t sell them later, they sold them immediately.

Roughly:
- borrow $1mln
- buy $1mln of coffee, regular price $10/kg
- sell immediately at $8/kg (lower price helps move the goods quickly)
- pay back $1mln loan

By the time you paid the loan back, $1mln no longer has the same value. And so the $1mln you paid back is really only worth way $500k.

Add to this lack of stability due to war and you may not even pay it back … perhaps you refused to pay, company went out of business, you borrowed from someone who is no longer around (alive, fled the country, etc), or any other number of related reasons. In that case it ends up being pure profit for you. Not so easy to enforce or later track down.
If I asked the people close to you what you do/think differently than others, what would they say?
LTO4 is limited to 800GB uncompressed data.
So if you're super-keen on food and trying to establish a career as a recipe creator or food photographer, it's dishonourable to: put in a lot of effort custom-writing supporting material and taking quality photos of the dish you're pitching to people? Sounds like these things traumatise you! :)

I'd agree that misleading made-for-AdSense sites that purport to, but then don't, answer a question, farm out writing to $5/page content squads and intersperse stock photos - that's shoddy. But all the recipe sites I find in my searches and have to scroll down for the content, they always seem like genuine, personal efforts. If I'm getting the content for free, scrolling a little bit as a price isn't too laborious and a stretch to think of it as dishonourable work IMO.
I don't know, is there a free two-shot regimen to help deal with obesity? Also, last time I checked, hospitals weren't running out of ICU beds thanks to obesity.

Think about malware that encrypts everything on every HDD+SSD storage within reach in the company. Assume it somehow got all admin passwords. Doesn't even want money for the decryption key. What now?

One method for business continuity would be LTO in a fire-proof safe to bootstrap the business back into life. Malware couldn't infect or encrypt the data on tape, because of the air gap and inherent "offline" nature.
> Fix is to loop searching the element with selector and check if the element fills the conditions. If not, retry from search again. We had nice helpers for those and had very stable selenium tests.

Thanks, I'll double check, but I think we do this now. In looking at the history of test failures, those failures are indeed less common, but still plenty of false positives of other types. Most persistent recent failures are the WebDriver timing out when loading a URL, which has never happened while manual testing or when being used by end users, so not sure what's going on there.

In any case, if the Playwright API encourages better idioms for writing tests that avoids these pitfalls, that would be cool because I deal with a lot of work term students that aren't adept at this kind of stuff so that would save a lot of headaches.

If avoiding obesity was as easy as a $20 needle prick with minimal side effects... absolutely. Without question, I would require that vaccine for everyone that didn't have a valid medical reason not to.
Oh yeah, sure. I think we're on the same page here. It's literally no different than an XSS vulnerability (done on purpose or otherwise), which basically boils down to: yeah, don't do that.

Hehe I like this! I don't even think it's nitpicky from your parent at all and your "progression" I would say works very well with how school should work.

At first kids just learn how many fence posts and fence is gonna be there in the end. I.e. how much do you need to buy ignoring some things. Like you ignore friction losses in physics in many cases, especially in school.

Extrapolation and Linear regression you learn later on to solve the same problem better! Love it!

Similar thing happens (or at least happened when I was in school) in chemistry. We learned the Bohr model and it could be used to explain everything that we learned about. Towards the end we learned that there are some things that model can't explain and that there's another model that can explain those things and so we learned about that and also that it's totally fine to keep using the Bohr model for a lot of stuff as it's easier. Like ignoring friction losses in physics and the predictions/calculations come close enough in most cases that it's still useful but much easier to comprehend and calculate than if you had to take them into account.
Interesting, what sort of studies should I look into if I wanted to look into this?
I didn’t write that properly. I meant I expect Apple to eventually get dethroned, just like IBM was. Not that it is currently on a downward trajectory.
Is it really driving at that point then, or is momentum just carrying it? "Apply brakes" seems like the only thing it can realistically do in that scenario.

I’m “the public” and you are “the public” so again, I ask you, how would it be decided what is harmful and who exactly would do the deciding?

If you mean that the public decide by making their own decisions on whether to read something or not then that sounds like a good system to me, as I’m happy to make my own decisions. I’m also an adult who respects the right for other adults to make their own decisions, especially about what they read.
Ugh, drivel. Even people in high-reputation positions can, and do, spout nonsense. There are many risks when bicycling, including motorists treating bicyclists even worse on average when they wear helmets. But when when the head hits the road, a helmet substantially reduces the likelihood of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Just like crumple zones in cars substantially reduce auto-accident-related injuries.

Been there, done that, got a crushed helmet and concussion rather than a life-altering TBI or death.
Yes blame Apple as they have the most money and thus the most responsibility to do better. 3 trillion dollars is worth how many human lives?
>They can have Rogan or Young.

That's an ultimatum with markedly authoritarian need for control over what others have access to on a platform. Thanks for proving my point.

>Note that the primary demand is to remove his music.

No it's absolutely not or he would not have ended with the ultimatum. IF what you're saying was true he wouldn't have needed to mention anything about Rogan, he can pull his music whenever he wants.

I'm not sure if you're just naive or you've haven't been properly taught reading comprehension and critical thinking but you're just dismissing half of what Young is saying. I guess the last option is that you're being malicious for some reason. Which is it? I'd have more respect for you if you just admitted you like his authoritarian attitude because you don't care for Rogan.
Is the data trivially stripped?
Ah, I see, that’s a fair question, especially if it’s only a link and nothing else. I don’t know if the top-of-thread comment was edited when you asked, but at least as of my response, the word “Previously” now sufficiently indicates it’s past discussions on a repost article.
Thank God!

Tell freemium users what is the acceptable rate for requests per second. Publish the allowable rate on the website. Ban freemium user IPs that exceed the allowable rate. This can be done using a proxy.
Not necessarily true. It devalues if you hold onto the money in local currency. It does not devalue if you exchange (usually gray/black market) to another currency. In ex-Yu, this would have usually meant Deutschmark.

It also does not devalue (in the same manner) if you use it to purchase real estate which you hold onto for a long time. Much of this money was used to purchase apartments, houses, buildings, businesses, etc.

Or you don’t care and are just looking for an increase in cash flow.
I’ve never caught obesity by sitting next to someone. Have you?
No, because you get it up front, you can convert it into something that doesn't devalue. A rapidly inflating currency is a medium of exchange, not a store of value.

LTFS (Linear Tape File System) shows each each "file" as often a pretty dumb "write-only" mechanism / append-only file system.

That is: if a file A is modified, LTFS "represents" this by marking fileA as dead, then copying most of the contents of A to the end of the tape... with the few modifications in the correct location.

Because tapes have so much capacity, this ends up working much better in practice than you'd expect. Especially if your backup-like software (or Apache-log files or whatever you're archiving) are largely append-only (ex: Wikipedia dumps or whatever huge data-storage requirements you're doing).

-----------

Allegedly anyway, I don't really use tapes myself, but I amuse myself by looking at their specs / usability every now and then. It seems like the details of LTFS depend on each manufacturer's system, but it seems like LTFS itself is somewhat cross-compatible.

Some LTFS-library docs suggest that different tapes are different folders. Others suggest that different tapes are mount/unmounted (which sends a sequence of commands to the little tape-robot to fetch the correct tape, which it does so by scanning barcodes or maybe going to correct slot)

-----------

Tapes are meant to be used in a "jukebox-style" application IMO. If you need just one tape, you're doing it wrong. If you need 80-tapes, then doing it manually is obviously wrong, you should pay a bit extra for that "jukebox / tape-library" robot to fetch the right tapes automatically.

> Does it already exist as open-source?

Red Hat claims LTFS support. But I imagine this is only "disk-level LTFS", and not "library / robot LTFS".

but i feel like: "The probability of picking a name that is also a racist anagram is about 1 in 750 billion"

needs some kind of explanation as to how this figure was arrived at. this seems to be quite a difficult value to calculate and seems to require a lot of assumptions that are not necessarily shared.

* what is racist anagram?
* what is a name?
* are names picked uniformly?

my prior is a lot of this nazi hunting is similar to numerology. people are just datamining for signals then are surprised when they find them.

I have some knowledge of machining and how to create precision from nothing, though this isn't very common.

Lack of precision means worse efficiency, crude steam engines with careful handfitting can work well enough. Though this adds times, and as the other replies note it isn't clear if the Greeks had the fuel to run a modern steam engine if you gave them one with a boiler.

The issue will be sending email as the custom domain. You will need to use another service besides to send email as the custom domain.

I have had a legacy Gsuite account for years but only used it to forward email to my regular Gmail account and to send email as my custom domain email address. Gsuite would take care of issues such as DKIM so my emails would pass spam filters.

Once the announcement was made I requested access to the Cloudflare email routing beta. It took about 24 hours to get access. Cloudflare now routes email for my custom domains to my normal Gmail account. I signed up for the $1 a month Zoho email service and use it purely to send emails from my custom domains. Zoho does all the needed DKIM signing. I signed up for the $1 account because I needed to be able to send from 2 domains. They have a free tier which should work if you have 1 domain.

Someone is going to ask why I don't just use the Zoho account to receive my email too. I actually like Gmail and I like the integration with other Google services I use.
Indeed. It’s tragic.
I... disagree with much of this.

Collapses of a paraglider are a normal operation and a normal occurrence, and can be recovered with much less than 50 ft of altitude loss. With a wing designed for fast recovery (rather than maximum performance), think closer to five feet under normal conditions.

I also fly sailplanes (and, for that matter, powered planes) and I find it hard to compare the safety directly. Paragliding definitely has a higher incident rate; but the incidents happen at so much lower energy due to the speed that you're dominantly concerned about things like twisted ankles. I will say that I feel much safer paragliding than downhill skiing due to the lower kinetic energy and higher allowable reaction time.

The people getting hit hardest by remote learning are the poor kids, who have few enough opportunities as it is. (I can tell you from experience, these remote learning systems are horrible on a low-end device, yet almost tolerable on a high-end one. Parents with both the time and knowledge to assist with school-work aren't distributed evenly. etc, etc.)

Universal education is supposed to be the great equaliser. I can't imagine the current state of remote learning achieves that, so I'm somewhat sympathetic to the people who push for schools to re-open in-person. I don't think it's worth people dying over, though, especially given that the qualifications are more important than the stuff you learn in school.

Except a backup NAS could accomplish the same thing. Or a backup to Backblaze / S3 storage or something.

Lots of ways for the "all data was destroyed" situation to come out. Tapes are kinda-sorta useful for this situation because capacity is so so so cheap, you can keep full copies of the important data in your tape library pretty easily.
You clearly don't know much about obesity or simply don't care. Either way, if you're truly invested in the public health implications/strategies for obesity, you're welcome to look into it. :)
Ask HN: How to start a lending fintech company in the US?
I have been trying to find an answer for this question, but for some reason a straight forward answer seems elusive.

Can anyone here provide a blueprint of the main things you need to get figured out.

I'm not talking about the tech. I think nowadays there's a lot of fintech infra services that make this easier. I'm mainly talking about the incorporation, regulatory and legal process to move from an idea to launch a service that can capture and lend money.

Where do people start? Do they go to a lawyer and how do you find the right one?

I would really appreciate any information that can shed some light on this topic.
If Looks Could Kill
Ok so now what?

We lock down society for a relatively benign virus whose more extreme outcomes are mostly ameliorated by vaccines and therapies?

I am all for you encouraging people to vaccinate but if they don’t then that is their choice. (Me: triple vaxxed and still got covid 2x)

There a millions of preventable deaths of many kinds every year. Why is this cause special (now today, not with our previous situation in 2020)

Also:
An endemic disease is a disease that is always present in a particular population/region.
Ex. Flu, malaria, HIV, syphilis, and… COVID

(When they do declare this an endemic next month do I get a prize?)

Additionally we have never eliminated a coronavirus before. This isn’t smallpox/polio.
Actually, it didn’t go well. Nowadays we’ve got a bunch of 6th graders still at a 4th grade education level. Remote learning for children is substantially less effective for many of them.

Think about it, what are the reasons making close supervision of school-aged children desirable? Their brains are still growing and developing! They often aren’t mature enough to be academically successful when they’re physically isolated and stuck on a shitty google hangout.

Just wanted to say thanks for Xcode. Bundling it with OS X was brilliant and made it so much easier to get started writing software. I even used it for Java! I have written more LoC in Xcode than in any other tool, and though its focus has shifted away from the software I write, I still consider it fondly.
When you need some pesos to go to the dermatologist, pay someone to fix the air conditioner, or take an Uber across town, tuna is harder to resell than dollars. But the optimal level of tuna in your portfolio is nonzero, in part because sometimes the supermarket runs out, or goes on vacation, or gets shut down by the police for a week, or closes because of the rioting, and having some food in the house is a good idea.

The frustrating thing to me is that as a user they don't give us any tools to help ourselves. I would gladly make it a "team" account and login individually if we could. I would gladly do a shared TOTP, or whitelist login locations, or anything like that. Or at least give us the option to accept the risk and disable whatever anomaly detection they are applying. But no, that's not how the software world works anymore. Extreme paternalism mode is the only option as a user.
