(In the UK the equivalent manuals are classified, albeit at a low-level).

It's a bit like knowing the general rules of chess vs. having a specific gambit for use in a particular game. Some of the information in the manuals is common military knowledge, e.g. how convoys work, how to position forces making use of cover, etc. In effect the military laws-of-physics.

What usually remains classified are the detailed Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) associated with given weapon systems or specialist force elements. Also, plans for specific operations are usually 'born secret' and tend to remain classified as that would give away thinking.
If you don’t have AAAA records and you don’t have Interfaces listening to those addresses. You won’t “see” ANY “demand.” So since they don’t see ipv6 traffic, they think there’s no demand for it. It’s a self-fulfilling statistic.
I have the inability to focus and tolerate work that isn’t interesting and rewarding beyond the money, I haven’t figured out yet how to exchange money for reduced work-induced misery, and I’m not as fortunate as you in seeing all jobs as the same. In fact, I could easily accept a lower salary for a research ship conference paper job than a SWE ship software job, not that the former jobs are very easy to get these days at any salary.
> I'm a simple man.

You demand a lot more than I do (which is basically cheap and low maintenance. I dont care about cupholders, infotainment, beauty, acceleration or even finish really). Then there are plenty of options. Around here, Tesla is not a popular option for electric, so I guess I'm not alone.
> How come Tesla is worse than cheap cars then?

A primary point of complaint in the report are the breaks. In an electrical vehicle most of the time you break by using the engine as generator instead of using the breaking pads. Since they aren't used they corrode. In a cheap Dacia you don't have that luxury.

Yes but people can be forgiven for not seeing how Brexit would have affected how the US turned out. Something like that had not happened in this current generation's memory.

We like to think they are wildly different from each other. Turns out the two countries are still very similar in values and mentality.
Excellent perception that sometimes depression isn’t caused by some chemical imbalance or childhood trauma. Life is often just hard, and sometimes you’re going to act like an jerk to try to cope. I’m not perfect, I suspect you’re not either.

Getting something accomplished is key for me, code-wise that might mean I write a script in 10 minutes to pull weather data from an api, or an image from NASA. Keeping the task small lets me get a positive shot before I can burn out.

I have to break project sized work into smaller mini projects, or I get intimidated. I accept that I’m weak and easily distracted, I guess I’m treating myself like a child. Who cares as long as it works?

I also let people take advantage of my agreeableness. Only solution I’ve found is to change jobs every couple years.
> The new attempt is to help setup private sector managed entities.

I get that. But these projects cannot run on political will alone. Ministers change. And parties can lose in elections. The only constant is the bureaucracy. And I have very little trust in their competence.
I'm an engineering manager with only 4 years in the role, and I think it's more of a lot of things I hate with intense periods of excitement, joy and satisfaction. You might be able to get 20+ years of that, depending on the details. That's why the OP's original analogy of a far less dangerous, corporate version of military combat resonated with me.
Good point, and for those unaware, cargo doc also shows you all of the traits defined for a type including those from other modules. You can even quickly see the source code defining the trait implementation. Rust has some of the best documentation of any language (which to be fair it really needs due to all of its quirks).
That company literally worked on many major car projects for those 30 years. What do you think have they been doing? They were involved in the RAM truck overall that made it really popular for example.

Their costumers are literally car companies who want to know if competitors are using new technologies that they might be able to use.

If you want to see an example of what the produce, check out this report that they sold for 10$ (usually these cost many 100k$). This is a 23,793 pages report on every details and new technology in the i3.

I used to work in genomics. I think the quest to have a universal epigenetic measure of ageing will end up in a dead end.

Ageing is relative to a starting point and the variability between people in terms of phenotype is huge.

By way of analogy, would it be possible to come up with a universal measure of ageing for cars? Cars are a complex system made of thousands of components, each of which can age differently over time. Each car make and model will age in a different way. Some of the components even slightly improve in performance over time as they “break in”.

The best way to measure epigenetic ageing is relative to a starting point. There are few studies that follow the same people over time (longitudinal) because it’s difficult and expensive to pull off. We’ll eventually get there though.
I haven't looked but the latest 1.7.x is probably close to 2 years old. There have been quite a few improvements since 1.7 so you might see some improvements by upgrading to the latest 1.x.

Minor nit on "TSM (not TSI)" - TSM (.tsm files) are the data files and that format hasn't changed. TSI is the newer, although mature at this point, indexing option that spills onto disk and can therefore be larger than the original in-mem index. You're probably using in-mem indexing.

My son had a total of 6 days of in-person school for the '20-'21 school year. All after, in-person school activities were canceled the entire year. Almost all sports were canceled as well. The summer of 2020 all summer camps were canceled except for a handful of virtual camps. This past summer, there were a handful of camps available, fortunately.

School is in person this school year, although there have been about 10 virtual days so far for his school, all have been in 2022 because of Omicron making staffing really tough. There are a handful of after school activities, but many are canceled. Sports are largely back to normal.
The current model is 1:1 for patient:race, data entered by the patient. You are proposing a 1:n model with data entered by each practitioner. That is a different model.

And again, you haven't walked through the practical consequences of making this change and how it will improve fairness enough to be worth the cost of implementation. If you're serious about this, please do that. Otherwise it looks to me like you're just bikeshedding, and I don't have time for that today.

Are Model 3s not common in Germany? If not, then why they not mention Model 3 performance on TUV inspections as well? Is it just that they haven’t been around for 3 years yet?
Exactly. With IPv6 you are expected to have multiple addresses. Some to access the internet with that may change, some that don't change and aren't globally routable to access your own stuff with. Though you can also (if your router supports it) assign hostnames to your devices so you can access them via their non-static global addresses.
You and I seem to have a similar history and current practices. I’m curious, how do you track your active time on your computer?

I use Qbserve on MacOS and I like it, but I haven’t reviewed options in maybe 5 years. It “just works” so I haven’t felt the need to explore.
I didn't downvote you but I'll have a go.

The rabid activists who are pushing their agenda of mandated quotas for special interest groups do not like it when you or others like you suggest logic and rational things that don't support their agenda.

Hence, the downvote. More goodthink, citizen!
The thing is, once you start to do any complicated firewall setup where defaults can no longer be restrictive, you are bound to screw it up at some point.
I prefer the Rust/ES/Python etc. import syntax not because of ambiguity, but readability. Having everything traceable by quickly scanning the code, without IDE assistance, often speeds up my understanding of a file. And it becomes essential of you're reading code in an IDE-less environment, e.g. github gists. Worth the verbosity IMO.
yep, The self-assign for many managers should be boring spikes, documentation and execution tasks. You will need to get your tech fix somewhere other than your day-to-day.
Stephanie Chan, a spokesperson for Instagram parent company Meta, said the ads were pulled because the company doesn't allow "content that promotes misleading health claims" or attempts "to generate negative self-perception in order to promote health-related products. We remove ads that break these rules."

Arguably, public service ads which depict the negative consequences of drinking and smoking are "generating negative self-perception" in their intended audience. In fact, that is precisely the point.

That said - the distinction here coming in using "negative self-perception" to promote products (as opposed to advising them to seek help from a professional - who can actually advise them as to whether these products are in fact helpful or worth the money).

So that's why I don't think the (implicit) "wrongthink" analogy applies, and no, this isn't the slippery slope to a full-blown totalitarian apparatus (as is the undercurrent of most Reason articles).
because websites are sometimes interactive and allow the user to schedule things to happen at certain times.

And displaying time/date locally would leak that information anyway if you wanted to do it in a way that works in various contexts it would need to in a website (e.g. canvas based apps)

even if you just let the user stylize the font of the date (which you clearly would need to), you tell your magic date input to only show the current hour, then use a font that has a certain width for each number, allowing you to then based on the width of that element figure out the hour, same for other things, obviously. It's easy to imagine some thing like that without thinking about all the details, but it's not really feasible once you think about how this would be implemented and how it could be circumvented. And that's in addition to not working in contexts where you schedule a blog post, zoom meeting, or whatever else might require the server to account for user time zone
Just wanted to post and say I enjoyed reading through your website. Very succinct.
Yup. But it wasn't all hate. I worked for a company that I believed in, was a peer with some of the finest scientists and engineers in the world, ran a team of very high-performing engineers, and was proud to be a member of that brand.

I felt good about what I did, even though I didn't enjoy it.

> 27 years is a long time to stay in a job you hate.

This statement shows that we are in a privileged place, indeed. We get to have a career, where we can do work that we enjoy, and make a lot of money at it.

The great majority of people don't get that. Most of my friends don't like their jobs. Some, are very good at what they do, and make a lot of money.

The job was relatively easy. I liked the company I worked for, and my peers. I felt a great deal of Responsibility towards the company, my peers, and my employees. I made enough to live on, and save. I could have made a lot more money, elsewhere. Despite the obvious sneers and judging that I get, I'm actually no slouch.

Nowadays, I work for free, on software that helps others.

WFM. YMMV.

As a German I can't attest most of the stuff you wrote.

You go to TÜV directly when you know/think that your car won´t fail the inspection. Otherwise you bring it to the dealership or an independent garage beforehand (in case of the Tesla or if you want so save money). They will fix the stuff for you and then introduce it to inspection. No matter if you drive a BMW, Dacia or Tesla. And TÜV is not cheaper, they want more or less all the same amount of money.

These statistics of TÜV are not about broken cars, it's about road safety. Broken head lamps, failing breaks, rubbers at suspension is brittle, .... These kind of things. And yes, most(not all) German cars won't fail at these things in the first five or so years. And yes, there were cars with bad transmission (DSG), failing engines and so on, but these problems are not counted in the TÜV statistics.
There's a lot more groups of companies than that. There's companies which primarily select for people from the most prestigious school or for people with connections to people who already work there, or actively avoid the candidates the DEI people would prefer even if they're clearly the best option. Companies full of people who genuinely care only about skills and qualifications are very rare and generally don't stay that way for long. You only need one person in a position of power whose goal is to hire their friends for things to go wrong.

Physical/analog computers always suffer from noise limiting their usefulness. So I think it would be natural to apply this to a network architecture that includes noise as an integral Part such as GANs or VAEs.
> I couldn’t work on my own projects (because I was on paid work time)

The only problem here is an employer claiming ownership of a personal project, assuming the personal project isn’t interfering with employee product delivery and isn’t violating employer security policies.

My solution to this is dual employment. My secondary employer has trouble differentiating work time from personal time so they end up with the most liberal IP assignment policies I have ever seen. Everybody, corporate IP attorneys, know this.

So, unless it’s making money or an employer wants to lay down a provision patent they won’t fight you on it. They are fully aware the alternatives are moving to another company or to stop innovating. As a result most employers with silently bless the personal projects even on company time. They won’t bless these efforts directly because personal projects on company time or property are ethical violations that legally compel the employer to take ownership and shut it down. That is the last thing anybody wants.
> What's interesting is how much resistance there is to adding IPv6 which comes from entrenched IT. People who never learned (much) about IPv6 seem to be afraid of it

Right, you're only suggesting that they change out a fundamental part of the network for no benefit that they can see; why would they possibly object except out of fear and ignorance? After all, their fears are totally unfounded; most, probably all, of the random breakage and slowdowns that happened last time they tried to enable v6 have been fixed now.

I mean, yes, plenty of people don't want to learn new things for bad reasons, but plenty of people have insufficient time and have to make cost/benefit decisions - and you not liking their conclusion doesn't make them wrong - and there are a fair number of people who were all on board with upgrading a decade ago and got bitten by the then very real problems with IPv6 (which mostly boiled down to "not everything supports it properly, and lots of things fail ungracefully and create weird breakage").
And how do you explain that a belgian consumer group came to a similar conclusion?

Top speed on belgian highways is 120 km/h.
I agree, there is more policy based evidence making (or interpreting) than evidence based policy making.

But I'd also argue that this problem (policies are similar no matter what party rues) is not one of the trivial ones.

It's one of the hard ones, because it is sometimes true (especially in dual party systems like the US). And in other - very important - cases, it's suddenly not true.

In other words, the limits of politics are mostly very narrow, but sometimes frighteningly wide. Covid is a prime example.

We (society, citizens, politicians, scientists) need to do a better job understanding the state transitions from narrow to wide; but it's a hard question because there are so incredibly many factors and very small N (few observations, cannot easily transfer insights from one leader to another due to biography, for example).

Specifically, watch Bill Gates, Bezos, Branson, Thiel, and Musk. They're first in line with all the influence and resources needed, so if current life extension efforts pan out, we should see it happen.

latin not withstanding, most language learning classes are a waste of money.

You know whats cheaper than taking a college course on spanish? traveling down to Colombia with a small book on Spanish grammer and a duolingo membership while living here for 3 months.

I wouldn't say I'm fluent but I have picked up enough to navigate the city, ask for directions, flirt with the locals and make a few friends. And isn't connecting with people why we ultimatly want to learn a new language?
Mr. Nobody: The Bizarre Story of Sywald Skeid
Oh for sure. My first comment is pretty much me bagging on managers. But in their defense, it's a really hard job. So hard I've never taken it on because I'm positive I wouldn't be good at it. I think my experience of most managers not being as good as I'd like largely boils down to the job being extremely difficult.

I'm not surprised to hear a manager's work can go unnoticed. That's unfortunate :(
I tend to think of luck like a multiplier.

> I think I've mostly watched resin casting demonstrations by very experienced people, so I may have unreasonably positive expectations of what is possible, but I think it's fairly common for art students to get some successful resin casts in a single-semester sculpture course?

It is much easier to get good results with a bit of in-person guidance, and in a controlled environment. There are also optional materials (eg. mold release) and equipment (pressure pot, vacuum chamber, or vibration table, all of which help with both mold-making as well as casting) that make success easier which are harder to justify for a low volume or one-off project.

> Which I think implies a cost of first success well under US$10000?

Well, sure. But you aren't comparing like with like. If you outsource the production of a prototype to someone else using resin casting, it will also probably be cheaper than $10k for the first one (say, $1-5k, because resin casting more or less requires you to have built one with some other method before you can even make molds) but scaling up is going to be more expensive (dozens or hundreds of $ per unit), in part because silicone molds wear out quickly and have to be replaced after being used as little as 5-10 times.

Conversely, if you already have your own machine shop, you may be able to produce your own metal injection molds for much less than $10k and hand it to someone to do a small run.

The two methods trade off (access to) expensive equipment for expensive materials, and up front cost for per unit cost at scale, but if you really only want one neither is attractive.
> So it must not be that bad, right?

Not really. Could be the case that if you're in the 90ish percent that has no problems, you love your car, but if you're in the 10% bucket you're screwed.

Similar analogy: I love JetBlue, when there aren't any problems. Wider seat pitch, better entertainment system, good value. When there are problems though, it's a nightmare. Once my flight was cancelled due to "weather" (mind you it was a beautiful sunny day, and I counted one other cancelled flight on the entire airport departure board). JetBlue said they could get me on a flight 3 days later, and gave 0 assistance getting on another airline because they don't have any of the "peering" relationships other airlines have. All they did was refund my money the day of, and no compensation because it was for "weather".

This jives generally with what I've heard about Teslas: people fanatically love the cars, except when autopilot steers you into a truck or a concrete divider.
They failed to fix it with the first OTA update. As far as I'm aware we don't really know if the second OTA has fixed it entirely, if its just switching to the "motor slip" mode of heating sooner, or if we will see more failures in the future.

Either way I think the point stands that Munro's analysis didn't catch this possible failure mode.
They are not considered equally serious. Engine, transmission and drive system problems have more weight than something like broken trim.

I agree. I find it to be quite annoying having to worry about misplacing my Philips Sonicare charger, electric shaver charger. I've already had to replace some of them but I also find it to be particularly arduous packing them for extended trips and also having to worry about {100,110,240}V compatibility.
