The (low) attachment size limit at Cloudant is about service quality and guiding folks to good uses of the service more than a technical issue.

As others have noted, the solution to storing attachments in FDB, where keys and values have an enforced maximum length, is to split the attachments over multiple key/values, which is exactly what the CouchDB-FDB code currently does.

The other limit in FDB is the five second transaction duration, which is a more fundamental constraint on how large attachments can be, as we are keen to complete a document update in a single transaction. The S3 approach of uploading multiple parts of a file and then joining them together in another request would also work for CouchDB-FDB. While it _could_ be done, there's no interest in the CouchDB project to support it.
If the conflict ended and the area accepted Israel in its current form, it wouldn't be that much different than being a minority in any other Western country.
You're being too vague. It's silly to opine on what btrfs should do without checking whether that's already the case. You should actually point out any specific default behaviors that are questionable rather than simply speculating ones that may or may not exist. The only specific thing you've mentioned so far is one that you could trivially have found out requires a non-standard mount option.

Requirements for seniors is technical leadership and communication. They’re good at understanding complicated problems and have encountered them before. They can identify key pieces of larger problems based on requirements, and can break them into smaller chunks of work.

With that they communicate succinctly to others via specs and rfcs.

If you’re in a specific domain like network protocols, operating systems, or performance engineering more domain experience will probably be required for the role.

Languages and platforms (AWS / GCP) don’t seem as important as they’re well documented and easier to pick up than the skills above.

They didn't lose their nuclear capability because they kept maintaining and building reactors instead of decommissioning them. US and to a degree most of Europe did not.

China in particular plans to build ~250 new reactors over the next few years, most like new HTG reactors based on the pebble bed technology Germany sold to them when they abandoned their next-gen nuclear plans.

Russia has reactor building capabilities that are still current but their domestic needs are stagnating so said capability could decay as they don't actually need to build modern reactors at this time.

Japan has a similar problem to Russia in that post-Fukishima there isn't domestic demand for nuclear reactors. However they are building reactors for other countries, in particular I think they are planning to build ~20 good sized reactors in India.
Apart from robust anti-download protections, I could do pretty much everything I needed using ffmpeg (compiled with a customized configuration), video.js running a handful of custom plugins and some other pieces of open source software.

Simple cryptography was possible, although I didn't use it.

The only thing I really needed to hire was a CDN.

That way I didn't step anywhere near of a vendor lock-in trap, had a high degree of control over my platform and could even develop some on-premises customizations that would be simply impossible had I relied on third-party, internet-only solutions.

So I don't know. Of course I wouldn't reach the scale of yt or vimeo (and I didn't intend that anyway at all), but I guess the things you are talking about are not as hard to do as you think.

I'm extremely critical of how governments have handled the pandemic, but I don't think underplaying the deadliness of Covid is the best position to make that case.

Utah barely locked down, has their kids in school, no mask requirements but has also one of the lowest death rates in the country.

A lot of southern states had the same policy, but have some of the highest death rates in the country. [1]

Utah is also one of the youngest and fittest states in the country while Mississippi (#1 for deaths per capita) is consistently ranked one of the most obese[2]. As far as I'm concerned, Covid should be encouraging the US to talk about their longest lasting health crisis - an obesity epidemic, but for some reason that hasn't materialized.

This is not an ev problem. Somehow vehicle connectivity came somewhat at the same time as electrification, and so, people see causation where it's just correlation; but by any means its not a downside of EVs, it's a problem of connectivity and corporate greed.

EVs existed before connectivity and none of the issues cited in the article were in those early versions. Similarly, connected non electric cars have the same problem. See BMW which built cars with heated seats but required you to give them extra money to activate them, all the examples with John Deer, connected range rovers that you could remote open, etc.

I'm not shocked by the fact that companies like Toyota and co. will try to leverage random small features like remote open or remote diagnostics that require connection to start charging you monthly. Subscription economy is the shitty way the world is moving to, and any industry that didn't pivot there yet is getting very jealous.
The Mearsheimer video is Russian apologism disguised as realpolitik. It has nothing to do with reality. One needs only read the ravings of Putin on the essential unity of Ukraine and Russia (the manic delusions of a spurned ex) to understand how dated Mearsheimer is.

> A couple of inconsequential states wanting in while the major players wanting to chart their own course in defence is telling you the direction it is headed in.

You'll need to point out specifically which major players are running away from NATO because NATO has never been stronger than now at the height of Russian predation. See Germany's revised defense budget or the increases of defense budgets across the board of all other NATO members in response to Putin's war.
You said "a lot of human behavior is explained by game theory". Why can't we say that all human behavior is explained by game theory? How do we differentiate between an instance of behavior that is explained by game theory and one that isn't?

It's useful and interesting to say "here's a theory that predicts ways in which people actually behave". It's begging the question to claim the theory actually explains human behavior, which remains opaque.
> On the contrary. Part of TFA’s point is that, like many other fields, outsiders usually have a much poorer idea than they think of the hows and whys of teaching.

So you're saying those attempting to restructure the classroom should not take into account this blog post? You seemed to fail to recognize the value of this blog post, or sharing knowledge in general: you give others an express pass to knowledge that you have gained through first hand experience. That is the meat of the article: common pitfalls new teachers trying new ideas fall into - if your goal is to change education you must experiment, and if you are going to experiment, this blog post is invaluable.

Forever more an experimenter attempting a classroom restructuring who read this post now has artificial first hand experience to draw from - to state that anyone attempting to do such a thing should ignore this piece and generate first hand experience is asking them now to retread mapped territory. Unless your prescription is that people shouldn't experiment - a notion which warrants no respect.

It is mere coincidence that you respect one country's due process and don't respect another country's due process.

I suspect in today's world of maximizing capital efficiency, and being able to contract in large numbers of people, the very expensive power plant won't be offline for long for maintenance.

They'll probably shut the plant down, and have 500 workers come in to replace everything that needs to be replaced, and then power it up again within a few days, and let it run for another 6 months or so.

Everything will be planned on workplans, and most won't require specialist knowledge... Eg. "Replace pump 205 in building C with this pump. Required skills people: 2x plumber, 2x electrician".

I can do it through a Swift transfer. It is costly, as there can be multiple banks in between and each bank applies their own "un advertised" fees. Also it can't be tracked. It's like throwing money to a worm hole. It can arrive at the destination in a few working days or not. No view into what happens in the worm hole. So swift transfers are unpredictable.

There is Revolut, which can do this free or low cost, but lately this service seems to be akin to swift transfers and can be fee deducted by interim banks. Our circle has been using Revolut for similar transfers up until some of us fee deducted by huge amounts.

So this leaves us with Transferwise. And Transferwise only does exchange transfers across borders.

This is not really something we are happy with because there are exchange taxes applied in Turkey to move it into the Euro account back.

I don't think you read the article? How did you get that out of what was written?
I'm no expert, but I can give you my perspective (Background: I'm Israeli, and consider myself fairly liberal politically).

> Honestly I'm really confused every time I try to understand Israel. Ordinary terms like citizenship, borders, immigration, and statehood are all in dispute

I'm not sure what you mean by in dispute here. Most of these are fairly well-defined when it comes to Israel. They're not even unique definitions - Sweden is the state of the Swedish ethnic group, Germany of Germans, Japan of the Japanese, etc. Israel in its conception is the land of the Jews.

There are complicating factors, which is that history you alluded to. While it certainly seems from the wiki article that the "historical Palestinian national identity" is something that is still argued about, I think the relevant part isn't so controversial.

Around the mid-19th century, the land that is now Israel (and was back then referred to as Palestine) had mostly Arab inhabitants, with a small Jewish population. Jews around the mid-19th century started a plan to go back to the lands they were removed from two thousand years prior - and many Jews started (legally) immigrating to Palestine and buying Palestinian lands. This caused there to be a fairly large Jewish population by the time 1948 came around.

Between 1900-1948, that land changed hands several times, eventually ending up under the rule of the UN, which made a plan to divide the land into a Jewish country and a Palestinian country. The Palestinians refused, and fled the land, as several Arab countries decided to attack Israel. Here there is some disagreement - were the Palestinians encouraged to flee by their leaders? Were they pushed out of Israel? Those are more disputed facts (I think for sure, some of both things happened.)

Israel won that war, effectively cementing most of modern day Israel, minus some (fairly large) territories. The Palestinians that stayed in Israel and didn't flee, became Israeli citizens. The hundreds of thousands of Palestinians that did flee became refugees in other countries.

Then the Six Day war happened. (Israelis generally consider the war to be started by others, though this is certainly disputed.) During this war, Israel took a bunch of extra territories, and with it, the Palestinian refugees. However, Israel didn't officially annex the regions or give the refugees citizenship, rather, kept them (and still to some extent keeps them) as refugees.

I think that's the majority of the story, from a (definitionally) Israeli perspectiev.

You don't want to have the NYC taxi issue of drivers refusing to drive to the Bronx, so I'd do things like

- Have a "end my shift soon" button that can be used once every 24 hours that will only connect you with riders that get you closer to your home

- Allow drivers to define ~1-hour radius "work zones" where fares have to pay for the return trip, a la EWR to NYC taxis. This surcharge is fed into driver selection ranking.

- Pay for miles + time. I'm not sure how to structure it because Uber wants to show the fee to riders up-front and commit to it, pay the actual cost to drivers, but keep the contractor relationship. Maybe structure it as "fare insurance?" The idea is for both riders and drivers to get the price they expected, and for Uber, with its massive ride volume, to provide a good p95 experience on both sides.

Another explanation I’m predisposed to, due to personal involvement: I was on the Shop[1] team when it was transitioning from Arrive to Shop, and shifting from a package tracking application to a shopping cart. If you gave the app access to read your emails, we’d scan for tracking #s but also parse through emails from Amazon to pull data about what you ordered straight into the app, so you could track everything from one place. Shortly after Shop started gaining major traction in late 2019/early 2020, Amazon started pulling more and more details from their order confirmation emails, and we were less and less able to provide actionable info on your Amazon orders until they finally put the entire order behind a login, and all we could tell you in the Shop app was you had placed an order at Amazon.

Even if it's swamped it's still cheaper than building an island from scratch, like China's been doing in the South China Sea - but Belize is a little less strategically important... Still, I could imagine some kind of storm-hardened resort on stilts or something. Otherwise they'd need to try and capitalize on extralegal things that having a pseudo-nation could provide: tax haven, smuggling, etc., hard to get traditional investors excited for that, though I am sure there would be takers somewhere.
Yes, I didn't really expect an answer as nobody has those numbers. It was just rhetorical.
> moving the goalposts is so pathetic.

But that’s all that you’ve done. You’ve just moved them somewhere that’s convenience for you.

That’s what I’m demonstrating here. If you don’t pick something objective like CO2 emissions and tax that directly, this is just a big pointless fucking culture war that does nothing to help climate change.

There is no shared sacrifice here, it’s just “fuck the person that buys this truck”. Nothing to do with emissions or anything like that.
It was shipped with 12 years delay, and has caused billion in loss to the builder Areva/Orano. They are building a similar one in France which will have at least 11 years delay, and also billions of costs overrun.

Areva/Orano being a french state owned (mostly) company, this is probably largely paid for by the French tax payer.
By that metric, most people are worthless.

Probably large fixed costs (engineers, builders learning how to do the thing) amortized over building a large number of plants.

China has been constructing a lot of new nuclear power plants over the last 15 years -- estimated at ~12 GW in 2013, but now closer to 50 GW as of 2021. Wikipedia says 50 plants as of 2021: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_power_in_China.

Anecdotally I've heard that temporary pollution control measures during the 2008 olympics gave the populace and decision makers a taste of reduced air pollution, and gave increased political willpower to invest in solar, wind, and nuclear power generation.
> everyone in the administrative region gets covered for everything

That leads to rampant abuses. For example in certain East Asian city states with "universal" healthcare people would use ambulances as taxis because they were free. You need copays to prevent this kind of abuse.

And you also forget that the US has a big illegal immigration problem. By and large illegal immigrants make minimum wage or lower, generally under the table (i.e. not paying taxes on it). By covering healthcare for them you are automatically subsidizing illegal immigrants at the cost of citizens and permanent residents. Is that fair?

If you think these aren't legitimate outcomes of allowing everyone to have free healthcare then you're naive.
Oh, fair, I hadn't thought about it from that perspective. I think the challenge is that you still have to know the VAT nuance (and categories) for every country you operate in, and failure to do so correctly will result in you getting a tax bill, regardless. I don't think it's actually any less burdensome than the US' system, but I'm also not an expert on either system (just adjacent exposure working around it).

What betters options would you have in mind? Asking from curiosity, I don't follow this space closely.
By population that's one reactor of this scale per million people. To replace all other sources of electricity, 8 thousand such reactors would feed the current world's population. We'd need just shy of 500 more to keep up with population growth by 2030 - or at least 500 new reactors globally per decade.

(edit - assuming everyone uses the same amount of power globally as the average person in Finland which - why shouldn't they be able to - and - obviously they don't)
