Caveat that you probably already know but others reading may not: 'zfs send' while absolutely awesome when used for things it's designed for will stream the file system byte for byte so if there's corruption brewing you will absolutely transfer the corruption along with everything else.

(taking a snapshot, mounting the snapshot, and then backing up from -that- via something 'cp -a' like is probably the safest option, IMO, though it's always possible I've missed something here in which case I hope somebody will reply correcting me)
> I've had it bluntly explained to me by a federal prosecutor that they do it specifically so you cannot mount a legal defense due to your inability to hire a quality attorney.

And that's exactly the problem, where is the right to a fair trial if you cannot hire a quality attorney? I guess it levels the playing field somewhat in preventing people with money from defending themselves the same way poor citizens are screwed over by the judicial system and not being able to get adequate representation...

I've fond memories of hanging out in my friend's room, listening to punk while expanding our extensive Clarion MS DOS database, and then reprinting it to admire it.
We have very strong property rights in fixed physical property. We have very weak property rights in everything else. We used to have strong property rights in everything else, but not now. This is not a good recipe for a good society.
Is that an issue with Arduino? This PR [0] suggests a R/W compile is around 13k (or R/O for 5k) on an M0. I don't know if there'd be a big difference compiling for AVR though.

I agree on the apples to oranges, but LXC does not directly compare to a container runtime IMHO.. It is a proper engine to be fair, even if it provides much less functionalities as the Docker engine.
I switched to running FreeBSD on a commodity OnLogic/Logic Supply fanless PC from Ebay and I love it. I use Mikrotik for L2 stuff but doing L3 on your own is quite nice.
What an insightful point. I was thinking the worst, but this gives me some hope.
That is kind of the basic ugly fact of the US system. If you want rights, you need to support others that you don't like having those same rights.

There have been several times where they ACLU has stepped in on behalf of the KKK to garuntee their rights to protest/rally. Its ugly, but taking the rights away from one group because you disagree with them is a very slippery slope.

If you had tried to get two that close in production, I think you’d have struggled. I didn’t bother and got drives off the stack and bought both, and they are a long way apart.
Three hard resets yesterday because Chrome shat itself and Windows 11 (fresh unused installation) would not allow me to just kill it, and eventually froze itself too. Retarded and pathetic. Too bad I need to use this garbage from time to time...
Well, they're taking shots at players like Plaid (who use majority direct oAuth integrations) while doing the exact same kind of skirting around companies that don't play nice and share permissioned user data.

Aggregators aren't scraping because they enjoy using headless browsers, the US doesn't let end users own their data and this is the industry workaround. I don't expect new players to change the system so much as I expect them to accurately represents it to those outside of fintech
A bit of realpolitik on my part, I'm afraid. I think even my suggestion would be a challenge to get passed in any state, let alone federally.
>I dunno, getting inspired and copying all the ideas, deciding that they can do a good enough job internally instead of hiring Keivan doesn’t sound like a bad thing in and of itself.

It just completely kills the motivation to make any kind of system tools like this. If your tool fails, you have wasted your time. If it succeeds, the OS vendor will kill it overnight with a free knock-off, so you have also wasted your time.

OS/platform vendors should know it better if they want to maintain a thriving ecosystem of contributors, but nobody seems to care anymore. Shops knocking off most successful products with store brands, Apple doing the same with some popular apps, Amazon Basics, this. And then we wonder why so many people are depressed and don't see a future for themselves anymore.
How the Rust Tragedy Happened
Please take this as constructive criticism because I am trying to help. But I will be brutally honest. You are 21. You don't know anything yet. You honestly sound like someone who doesn't want to put the hard work/grind yet but wants "meaningful and purposeful" handed to you. Life doesn't work that way.

You need to work hard first. Whether that is through full time employment or your own business, doesn't matter. Forget investors. No one will give you money. You are nobody right now.

Full time job for even 2-3 years is not a bad thing. I run my own business and wouldn't trade it for anything but I worked in the corporate world for 10 years and gained a lot of valuable experience. Not saying you should do the same path but you need to start somewhere.

"My biggest fear is mediocracy"

Working at a full time job doesn't make you mediocre. Not everyone is a Zuckerberg. In fact, it will teach you real world skills, you will meet smarter co-workers and people in the real world, learn lot of skills like conflict resolution, negotiating etc.

"biggest wish is to contribute to something meaningful and useful to others"

Yea, the problem is that you have no experience in anything so you wouldn't know what is meaningful and useful to others. Get a job. Get some experience. Work with a few people for at least 2-3 years and then figure out a path for yourself.

"Otherwise my existence makes no sense"

Lol at this but I understand that at 21, this seems normal. Your existence makes plenty of sense. But go grind first. Get a job. Learn a trade. Whatever. These thoughts will be meaningless once you have more maturity.
We need Dang as a Guido style BDFL[1]. At least until the community has grown to fully take on and continue the culture. (Which I am assuming why Guido felt he could step down)

Hope they are taking great care of you at YC!

I am an American who has worked in Europe for many years at multiple companies, so I feel at least somewhat qualified to give some insight.

Europeans are just as talented technically as Americans, that has never been the issue. As a broad generalization, European business culture is consistently poor at leveraging that talent to generate value, often treating it like factory work. Because American business culture is so efficient and effective at converting engineering talent into revenue, often on the scale of $1M revenue per engineer, they can easily afford to pay the higher wages while still making a fine profit. This has the side effect of making the market for engineering talent extremely competitive.

In short, European technical talent as a resource is often being wasted by poor business practices, which means there is much less money to go around. There is no reason in principle that European engineers could not earn much more in Europe but changing business culture is slow, though some companies are trying.

What's the difference between frozen and seized? Frozen would have to be a request to a bank, and the same "warrant" is used as it is to seize them, essentially. If they find your money under your mattress, then it isn't going to get "frozen" at all.
The level of effort to mislead seems to go deeper every time a new article comes out about it. Didn't I see a stat that said that 80%+ of people on Facebook who joined a hate group did so by suggestion of Facebook's own algorithms? Sheesh.
I’ve said that repeatedly; the contents is good but it’s needlessly repeated throughout the videos. I feel most of Steves review could be presented in half the time without loosing much. And to be frank, most of the time there is just too much details.

Thank you for the feedback.
It's a tired joke... but sometimes I can't help but grab that low-hanging fruit.
Exactly. Some "simple solution" might just be the end result of months or years of different iterations. Sometimes you can't know the best method until you've slowly and methodically tried all the worse ones.
The problem with >1GB/s is the energy you need to saturate it.

10GB/s needs a 10+W router and you'll need atleast 50W of compute behind that.

On lead-acid if you want long battery life and a good uptime you'll need atleast 4x 50Ah batteries.

25GB/s does not scale without waste unless you are ok with having 10x lead-acid batteries in the room where you live/sleep because that energy is heating.

Dunno about the hydrogen problem. Lithium only fixes the space problem in exchange of fire hazards, a hefty price increase and short battery life.
> Does anyone have an opinion of open salaries?

There's no such thing as a secret. Anyone, CEO included, that thinks they have a secret tier of comp... we know. We all talk about you and what a sweet deal you got and we make jokes about how your one or two good attributes are worth at least $$$ and we roll out eyes and chuckle. I love gossiping about salary information in the open

"But, the thing about rumors..." Dude, we know what you make. We show each other screenshots. We could get fired for it and we still do it
The differentiating case in this matter seems to be this.

>The story begins around 2017. Amazon Web Services was opening new data centers in Northern Virginia at a rapid clip to handle the growing needs of its customers, including the *Central Intelligence Agency* and other branches of the U.S. government.

Having had a TS and dealing with government, my intuition is that there is something more involved here concerning the 3 letter agencies. Generally, things like this are usually settled as a lawsuit.

The act of receiving a patent doesn't make one a dick on it's own. You could file for the patent, but freely license it and not be a dick. You could even license it at a very modest fee and still not be a dick. There are ways of doing things without being a dick, just most chose to be a dick. It's not the patent's fault.
The article seems to indicate that, counterintuitively, your Total Energy Expenditure (TEE) wouldn't have changed much after you stopped the regular cycling (see the section about how hunter gatherers walking 8-14 km a day had the same TEE as average US), so your weight gain may have been from second-order effects of coming back to your diet.

Do you remember whether your diet changed at this time as well?

Some other anecdotes shared here seem to share a similar theme, that exercise helps in losing weight on a more meta-level by shifting yourself into a generally healthier mindset which, in turn, seems to help you eat "healthier" foods, which is probably a proxy for "low-calorie foods" like fruit and vegetables. Maybe when you're sedentary it's easier to reach for the bag of potato chips?
Any gpon is cheaper than any docsis. HFC not only requires laying cables, the equipment is also expensive and it needs more power, so you have to pay for that too.

Reminds me of (now defunct?) flockport.com

They had some interesting demos up on YouTube, showcasing what looked like a sandstorm.io esque setup.
It's really hard to tell based on an article like this. The ANS creator is quoted as saying, "I don't know what to do with it - [Microsoft's patent] looks like just the description of the standard algorithm." However, who knows how much experience he has with patents? It may be that Duda invented the shoelace, and Microsoft invented the plastic sleeve at the tip of the shoelace.

As Timothy Lee says in the article, the problem with this type of patent is that it boxes in how you can use the original technology: you can freely tie your shoes with this shoelace, but if you use a double knot, now you infringe a patent.

In some ways, this mirrors the difference between copyleft and permissive copright licenses. By failing to patent the original invention, Duda made ANS useful and widely available, but he now has no leverage against Microsoft.
For me, it's a pleasant syntax to work with. The code structures make a lot of sense to me. I like the approach of using Result return types instead of exceptions really works well (especially with crates like anyhow and thiserror to abstract away the messiness of how errors are created/propagated) (writing JVM code for my day job, I find myself often wishing for Rust features).

Yup. My whole house has Cat5E and it all works at 10gbps; though I chose to run 5gbps just to have some margin.

Most hard drives will keep up with a full gigabit pipe, too, on a sequential write. I think the poster is exaggerating a bit.
The thing is that I do not agree with you that the ends justify the means. You seem to think that people seeing fewer pages in the wrong encoding in the long run justifies making the problem worse when it does happen. I do not.

And again, I will reiterate that this does not solve that problem anyway because vast swaths of the web are static content that was put there and never touched again, so no one will fix it. Unless we want everything to live on content farms, it is essential to be able to access content like this. You are viewing the web as something that is actively maintained, similar to a software project. That is true for a certain category of website, such as the one that we are on right now. It is not true for the kind of website which is most likely to have borked text encoding.
I'm speaking about devices with built-in cables, for example my Kensington Expert trackball, USB sound card, external webcam, etc.

Obviously I get by, but when using my Linux machine which has 3 USB ports, it's just simpler. I would never buy a mac in 2022, but work requires us to use one.
There's an old story about Keith Richards being asked the reason they decided to license "start me up" to Microsoft for their Windows95 campaign. He said (paraphrase) "well I was completely against it and then they showed me the check and I was like - well it's just a song."
That makes for some nice at-home data center posibilities.
There is also FlashDB which is more lightweight and can operate directly on flash

If devs universally react negatively to a practice, sure. If some devs don't like a practice, but it's more effective, that's an argument to ensure that you're filtering for it in hiring.

Reverse-engineering the Emporia Vue 2
Sorry to raise an irrelevant point to the question asked, but if you are a United-States American, could you please either not use two-letter state abbreviations, or spell them out on first use.

A lot of people who use this site are located outside of the USA, and for these people, the abbreviations are not commonly known.

This can genuinely cause confusion - in this case I thought `CO` might be the abbreviation for an senior position which is unknown to me (i.e. like CEO, CTO, etc.).
I'd just start up-ending them if I had to deal with these on a daily basis. Might even start carrying a sledgehammer for self-protection.
They're awesome when people don't half-ass them. They're awesome when they don't cause piles of problems that any half-competent social scientist could've highlighted immediately but no engineer ever seems willing to consider. They're awesome when they show actual engineering prowess, and not just slapping the cheapest shit on the cheapest other shit, outsourcing maintenance and operation to the cheapest available labor, and then leaving the broken carcass behind to pollute the public roads because it's cheaper that way. They're awesome when they're not thinly veiled ways of concentrating capital put into a world in which people can't afford insulin because that would cause some concentrated capital to be dispersed. They're awesome when we're creating an awesome world, not when we're sprinting towards dystopia.

If you're considering moving to Boulder, it'd probably be better to work with a company based there. For one, Colorado companies get the mountain vibe of taking off for bluebird days to go ski, and two it has a really good local network to get plugged into.

Alas, doing it gradually doesn't make the cost/benefit any better. It might slightly reduce the short-term risk of the product dying, but it would also increase the medium-term cost of the rewrite.

The boundary between C++ and Rust code is often a lot trickier than one might think, because one has to reconcile conflicts between C++ paradigms and Rust paradigms... when one considers all of the temporary code that reconciles those conflicts, we see that the cost just went up.

And then moving that boundary is tricky to do in a healthy way, especially when using proper A/B testing practices which require us to have both the old and the new code alive in the same binary.

Rewriting often sounds like the solution to things, but in practice it's a very risky and costly thing to do. See also: https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2000/04/06/things-you-should-...
Nothing that has hit the mainstream like Rust. To my knowledge, Rust's lifetimes take influence from a language called Cyclone.
Keep going with freelancing - do your projects on the side. If anything, delve deeper into corporate freelancing to learn the businesses around you and the people, and build a network of future clients while self-educating on what your local corporations need, how they work, and who they are. Then you can build up a career that lets you pay the bills with corporate consulting, see gaps where new products might be welcomed, and still work on your own projects on the side.

You also might want to consider your definition of mediocrity. I showed a few people that statement and we all had the same reaction - "Isn't their life already mediocre?" I mean, if it wasn't, would you be asking these questions? That isn't said to put you down... it is said to tell you not to fear where you already are. Instead of fearing mediocrity, step forward and move beyond it.
Here's a nice video[1] of somebody adopting a supermarket lobster and nurturing it back to health. clear demonstration to me that they are sentient and have personalities and mood (of a sort). after watching that, the grocery store lobsters are kinda heartbreaking, but i'm also a long time vegetarian so already predisposed to that.

i think aquarium keepers can be especially attuned to the personality types of marine animals. i've only been keeping freshwater fish and snails for under a year but they are super personable!

I haven’t, one of these things knocked me out unconscious while I was waiting for green light to cross the road.

It came from the side, hit me, I landed in the middle of the street. Happened right in front of the central station in Antwerpen.

Just imagine how confused you are waking up laying in the middle of the road while a paramedic smacks you in the face and asks you if you know what your name is. I’m going to spare the details for how long the grit I landed with my face on was coming out of my nose and the chin.

I don’t understand how it’s okay for these scooters to be legal. They are so quiet and so fast. They can come from any direction and you’ll not hear a thing. Apparently that’s what is so appealing about them.

I mean, with a car there are at least some clearly defined rules. Barring mental people, everyone drives on the roads, within clearly defined lanes while we walk on the sidewalk. These scooters are everywhere!
The helpfulness will, I hope, be remembered, and work in our favour when these robots have a greater stranglehold over general economic activities and we become further dependent and subservient to them. Sadly I've not heard of any kind of central database of robot assisting samaritans.
This caused a big splash at the time.

A patent is license to be a dick. If you’re not going to be a dick, you don’t bother with the license in the first place.
It's true but it's charming.
You're defining end-states and goals, e.g. - 'focus on coming to a shared understanding of why it's a problem' and 'building a relationship where they can have some faith that you might be able to see a danger where they don't', etc.

While that is great, I think the problem parents have is with the steps/process to get there. What works for one child won't work for the other, etc. Like I said, the problem isn't that parents don't know these things, the problem is stuff they're trying isn't working.
The Mac OSX UI is at least as bad as Windows. FFS Finder, guys!
