I've been working on a BGP implementation in Rust over the last few years: https://github.com/net-control-plane/bgp/

It's still in a proof of concept stage and nowhere as complete as GoBGP though.
It makes intuitive sense to me that computers are physically constrained in all of the ways (and more) that the universe itself is physically constrained. I don't know why the inclination is to take these fundamental constraints and then say "the universe is in a computer" instead of saying "the computer is in a universe".
Stop with your wannabe attempt to put words in my mouth i never said.
It really is the case that some people cannot be happy while there are too many other people -- they need to live on enormous properties and drive huge gas-guzzling trucks at high speeds without ever meeting any traffic or parking contention. The presence of neighbors genuinely diminishes their well-being. From both a geometry and energy perspective, not too many people can have this life.

But it's also the case that a lot of people are happy living in Manhattan and taking the subway. Billions more people could have this life if we allowed it.

I think people whose preferences are incompatible with the vast majority of their fellow humans being alive, need to take one for the team here.
Appreciate it! I'm a huge fan of ReadMe!
Crude, poor delivery but you may be on to something.

I am curious if this is why you see generational differences in mental models and belief systems (there is data showing an inverse relationship between religiosity and intelligence [1] [2]), and why younger, healthier cohorts operate with different mental models.

Riffing, if younger cohorts are healthier, you’d expect their average/aggregate cognitive ability to be higher, leading to social stratification.

This idea of a fallen-from-grace character is a common motif when it comes to Miyazaki, but it's so effective every time and always adds a dimension to the games' lore. To this day, I think Gehrman in Bloodborne is my favourite boss fight because it's simultaneously a test of everything you've grown into over the course of the game yourself, and also the conclusion of this man's painful, long and tragic existence
I guess ~15 people bike to work, the rest uses cars or public transport. I don't think anyone walks to work.
Thank you. All very astute comments that resonate.

Regarding politics, I definitely don't get phased by it. I understand this is something to contend with in any large org, when faced with finite resources and subjective goals. My last few papers could have been the foundation for major first-of-a-kind features in my companies products. The sad reality I have recently accepted is that getting the feature into product is less about technical excellence or market appreciation, and more about where the innovation is coming from (i.e. specific product group). Out of 6 areas my research lab works on (I lead one), only 1 of the six has had a product impact (not the one I lead).

Interesting; was thinking about this myself recently - currently based in WA - but if we opt to moving to a new country altogether I believe we would always be liable for US fed tax which makes it a little less appealing (assuming we'd end up then being 'dual-taxed').
> I don't believe this is true at all. Heck, you can look at the patches put into the various games to see places where FromSoft agreed that they botched something. I don't think anybody thinks that Bed of Chaos is the good kind of hard.

The fact that they patch the experience of their hardmode helps my case, not yours. It shows that they care deeply about the experience of their hardmode players, since everyone is forced to play it they have to care about it. While other developers just say "if you find it too hard just play on easy", fromsoft has to actually fix their games when they mess it up.

> NG+ exists

NG+ isn't a higher difficulty, its just continuing the game with yoru current character. The monsters have higher stats than the first run, but so do you since your character is higher level.

> SL1 exists

Deliberately choosing to not use certain options in the game makes every game harder, yes, but that isn't a part of difficulty options and the game isn't designed around SL1 runs.
> "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

But when the "stupidity" always leans in one particular political direction, it's difficult not to attribut malice to it.

> But this and the video game footage are readily attributable to the shoddy state of ad-funded clickbait journalism today, which is a separate issue from intentional propaganda.

Not seeing how it is separate from intentional propaganda when it was done intentionally for propaganda purposes and it was spread all over news and social media for propaganda purposes.

You say obviously there is propaganda on both sides ( which I agree with ), but then you excuse this away...

I'm starting to like this aphorism better ...

"Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by malice".

/s the real crime here is the way so few people seem to think it is important to pay attention to their dependency tree....

But in all seriousness, that was one of the most jarring things I found when switching from a Java/Maven stack to JS/NPM. Both Maven and NPM offer similar features for managing dependencies, but anecdotally I found the folks managing Java projects to be a lot more obsessive about carefully managing their dependencies while in the NPM world, it seems almost to be a "best practice" to just use open ranges for your dependencies and automatically update them...
Any suggestions on doing taxes as a nomad? Like websites that'd simplify the process?

hi naiv, Ana have explained what is the additional value we offer. As for the pricing being high:

Redocly's basic plan starts at $69/month billed annually - $828 per year, professional $300/month billed annually, and enterprise not listed.

Readme's startup plan starts at $99 per month per project and enterprise is $2000 per month/project, etc.

Theneo's basic plan starts at $20 per month and enterprise plan is $100 per month.
There are obviously many other differences in these plans so feel free to go check them out yourself and compare pricing.

Here's what it says according to various researchers, per the article:

“This event is completely unprecedented and upended our expectations about the Antarctic climate system"

“Antarctic climatology has been rewritten,”

"Concordia -18.0 °C unthinkable value in mid-March "

And then for something less extreme:

“[W]e can’t tell whether this is going to be a new trend or is just an oddity that occurs occasionally on a most fascinating continent,”

Personally, I think it's important to pay attention when experts in the field say things like unprecedented and unthinkable on the record. Especially given scientists have a tendency to be more conservative. I think it's a pretty shallow dismissal to say that it really says nothing when experts are saying the opposite.
With the power of the M1 chip it's amazing how little it can do.
germany has made it a law that allows every employee to reduce their working hours to 20/week (with equivalent reduced pay), it's just a matter of people making use of it.

EDIT: apparently any kind of reduction is possible (even 2 hours per week) but the reduction needs to be sensible and the employer needs to agree. if they don't you can sue, and if the judges decide that your requested reduction is reasonable they must comply (i guess that means, you can ask for 2 hours a week and get it if the employer agrees, but if the employer doesn't agree you probably won't convince a judge either)

mothers wanting to send their children to kindergarten does not translate into needing to make it mandatory to do so. a better response would have been to make it a legal right (but not an obligation) combined with the necessary financial support or offer of government paid kindergarten spaces. the latter is lacking in germany for example.

Yet, it randomly works for me. I use a M1 air with a ethernet cable.. To get it started initially I had to turn on wifi (which drops my download speed from 20MB/s to 2MB/s in my office) and then, disabled wifi, and it still works. Cool! Then, after a while, it stops working...

Turn on wifi to see if there's some retard dependency on the physical layer and nada.. Still not working. Ach, whatever...

Then throughout the day, it just randomly works and doesn't on ethernet.

Da fuq. Ship working code or don't. What is this nonsense? It's, I imagine, a fucking service running on the iPad that receives a stream of events from my Mac like (moved a bit forward on the trackpad). How hard is it?
Various governments around the world in the past 100 years have claimed to be socialist, but they have generally been opposed by some capitalist countries through the means of external military conflict and internal subversion.

This has in turn caused many socialist countries (and, necessarily, the most long-lasting ones) to become externally militaristic and internally repressive (or at least find themselves in an uncomfortable alliance with such countries).

Capitalist countries would say that this militarism and repressiveness of these socialist countries is inherent to the ideology of socialism, and that capitalist countries are merely acting defensively or benevolently in response to it. History doesn't resolve into easy lines of cause and effect, though, so we have to untangle the complicated context of individual events, like the 1973 Chilean coup d'état:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1973_Chilean_coup_d'%C3%A9tat
Perhaps not bad, but certainly undesirable for many. Concentrating economic power into a governing class can address many of the ill effects of extreme wealth disparities. However, concentrating the economic power in one place makes a society very vulnerable to corruption and surprise catastrophes. While traditional capitalism also concentrates economic power, a healthy capitalist society usually has those with wealth competing with each other on various fronts. However, one could argue that while either perfect capitalism or perfect socialism could yield a happy and prosperous society, neither has achieved perfection in practice.

If the point of the alliance was to keep the US from invading alliance members, then I can see the US being unhappy, sure. What I can't see is the comparison to Cuba, where the issue was the presence of nuclear-capable missiles. That's... not defensive.

Right now, having children is a nightmare financially. Most of my friends simply can't afford it, and are wise enough not to.

If the government wants to avoid disaster, they need to make changes to fix this reality. Example: add a k% tax on everyone, and a x% tax reduction per child you are the legal guardian of, up to y children. Use the money raised to subsidize day cares, public schools, etc.

Make the idea of having a kid less awful and people will do it. (That wasn't meant to be a double-entendre but I'll take it).
Does anyone know how to disable the bright red color when you first start typing a word? I find it very distracting (specially on over-saturated wide gamut displays) and went back to zsh because of it.
Ya, same for FreeBSD. You can literally operate a system with nothing but the handbook in most cases - the documentation is much more systematic and developed than Linux. What you get isn't just a "how to use a GUI" tutorial or manpages, it's a comprehensive look at how you do routine sysadmin tasks. The kind of thing that Linux pushes off to web tutorials or stackoverflow.

Compare:

https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/ubuntu-help/index.html

https://docs.freebsd.org/doc/13.0-RELEASE/usr/local/share/do...

It of course helps that nothing ever changes in BSD-land. After 50 years of development, they are largely feature-complete and are not going to be doing massive changes just for the sake of massive changes. As such they get much lower levels of "documentation rot", things rust a lot slower when nothing ever changes and as such it's a lot easier (and more productive) to build comprehensive documentation.

But the amount of churn in linux is insane, Ubuntu has used three completely different init systems in the 15 years since I started using Linux seriously. For java development, I routinely see and use StackOverflow answers from like 2009 that are completely valid still, and yet answers from that era are completely useless for Linux, which has invalidated that acquired-knowledge twice since then. You can pretty much sysadmin FreeBSD out of the handbook, and if you need to search then an answer from 2009 is usually still valid.

It's absolutely a cathedral-vs-bazaar situation. Cathedral is presented as a negative in that metaphor, but the cathedral ensures enough stability that you can start Having Nice Things instead of just constantly scrambling to rewrite everything every time a vendor thinks they've built a better mousetrap.
Humans have an instinctive drive to optimize genetic survival. Without it, we would not exist. One of the control mechanisms for this is our instinct for reproduction. We constantly access future availability of resources, attractiveness to high quality mates, and probability of a new child surviving to bear children of their own with high quality mates. The industrial revolution, with its massive increase in productivity and technological advancement, dramatically altered the survival cost function that humans must now optimize. A measly 200 years has not been enough time for our instinctual optimization algorithm to adapt. As a result, I believe we are seeing over-compensation for higher resources and lower mortality, which is most apparent in countries with the highest per-capita GDP (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_fertility_rate#/media/Fi...) where parents are over-delaying childbirth because they perceive an opportunity to improve their economic standing, improve their mate selection, and take better care of a smaller number of children. We even see this happening with immigrants from low-GDP countries who move to high-GDP countries and converge towards the lower fertility rate of their new country. I expect we will eventually adapt, but it will likely require a conscious override of instinct if we want to avoid a massive population decline in the process.
The cost of living has increased proportionally, not exactly leaving a lot of room for additional retirement savings.

Plus, proper retirement saving is hard. Saving 10% in a method that negates inflation only nets you 4.5 years of income at retirement age. You’ll need to drop your living costs by over 3x to live to a median age, unless you don’t retire in the traditional sense.
Agree the post is low content, but we can still take it as a discussion prompt. The author mentions concurrency problems, and rightly attributed the problem to concurrent manipulation of shared state. While the author addresses this with a technique—locks—commonly used in other concurrent systems such as threads, there’s another solution just sitting there begging to be noticed: don’t share state, or if you must share state make atomic changes.

This solution is available in many forms (with significant conceptual overlap):

- Pure functional programming

- Immutable (sometimes persistent) data structures

- Reducers

- Reactive computation

- Software transactional memory

Plenty more I’m sure. This isn’t to say any or even all of them are a silver bullet, and each makes some trade offs (compute performance, memory overhead, ergonomics/DX) to some degree. But in quite a lot of cases, those trade offs are worth the benefit of not having to reason about shared state, race conditions, concurrent consistency at all. And they can also help you produce more maintainable and testable code.
I do wonder about two things, though:

Did those numbers decline meaningfully during the Trump presidency? His constituency and platform is very anti-immigrant.

Regardless of that, how many immigrants in the US feel secure in their status? I know a lot of people on H-1B visas who have been in the green card line for over a decade, and live with the constant stress of losing their job and having to leave the country nearly immediately. I also know some who are asylum seekers, and stats aren't awesome there, either; I think something like 40% of them are ultimately rejected, some after years of being in limbo. Even family-sponsored immigration can take years to work its way through the system.

So sure, we have a lot of immigrants here, but I do wonder how many of them actually feel welcome, and secure in their progress toward permanent residency or citizenship, if that's what they desire. And meanwhile, all these immigrants -- even those who have waited years and been granted green cards -- can't vote and meaningfully participate in how they are governed.
Germany, however, does not.

Remember France is just another state in the Eurozone sharing a common currency.

Like California and Nevada.

I do believe the 'typical' home router is insecure, but mine is rather typical and has had great security updates for 4 years now.[0] It's definitely nothing special, just a $100USD unit. Asus also has an autoupdate feature so their owners don't even have to do anything. I haven't used another brand in years, I had a Buffalo router before this, but I've been following the release notes on this one and security seems top notch for a low-end home router. I do run a 3rd party firmware on this, but its downstream from Asus's.

While acquiring the property takes more time in America, I can't help but notice once construction starts it also takes a ridiculously long time too. It really seems like the interests of the power brokers in various areas are far outstripping the interests of the utility to society in multiple areas in America.
No Nordic country describes itself as socialist. The Nordic welfare model is made possible by free markets and private enterprise: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_model

Yeah I'm also slightly confused by those comments. I tried reading it from start to end, and it wasn't that enjoyable. It was mostly lost listings of names about peoples grand grand parents... and things that didn't really fit what was say two sentences ago.

I've worked on the embedded software inside a major brand/model of gas pump, so this article will be interesting.

This is so good, I clearly remember in the early days of gamedev a lot of this was known very much by word of mouth(we used to call it NAT punch-through) and it was a right pain in the ass to get working(layer on dynamic host migration and you had one of the most fun/challenging problems in gamedev networking).

> Should we let a small number of people hold hostage over public projects?

I think by phrasing the holdouts as "hold hostage over public projects" is misguided if not disingenuous. This is a common propaganda used by authoritarian regimes to paint anyone they don't like in a bad light: surely they're not victims of government brutality if they're "enemies of the common good."

But if we accept we can discard one individual's (or a small group of individuals') rights, then it's not long before everyone's rights become disposable. That's how people like Putin and Xi justifies their aggression (surely I can kill millions of people in Taiwan if it stands in the way of "progress" of 1.3 billion mainlanders!)

P.S. As someone as pointed out, this is not a China/US or eastern/western issue. The U.S. has its own fair share of blatant violation of private rights too.

But my point is that it's wrong when U.S. does it, it's wrong when China does it, it's wrong when anyone does it and it shouldn't be something we aspire to.
