That is an interesting bit from the lined article:

"One of the biggest issues that the report cites is the use of geographic targeting orders as the U.S.’s primary tool to identify potential money laundering events. GTOs impose reporting requirements on real estate purchases, but only in narrowly targeted scenarios — large cash purchases by legal entities in specific geographic areas."

These two lines are worth looking at because they showcase why I am not really fond of Rust as much as people who would rewrite everything from the Linux kernel to the IMF in Rust if they could (which in itself is seriously off putting if my tone didn't tell you that):

type Vec2 = { x: number, y: number };

function avgLen(vecs: Vec2[]): number

versus:

struct Vec2 { x: f64, y: f64 }

fn avg_len(vecs: &[Vec2]) -> f64 {

There has been more than two decades between the release of Perl and Rust and you haven't learnt anything? Wow. Listen: code written in languages heavy with sigils and shorthand are hard to understand, read and most importantly: maintain. This adds a mental load which is -- as clearly visible from above -- is totally unnecessary. I have no idea why would anyone in 2010, several years after the famous "memory is the new disk, disk is the new tape" do this to save on characters in the source code. The teletype is a distant memory.

Thanks for letting me vent a little.

One tricky aspect of sequels of very successful art, be it books, plays, movies, or games, is that a successful work transforms the audience.

Second this, the article in Science is well worth a read: has an excellent overview of the issue and a clear technical discussion.
Yes, moved away from rackspace to IBM Cloud. Since then use several cloud providers for redundancy.

Every provider has severe downtime (when even phone lines are not operational) so we do failover across several providers. Saved a lot of uptime for us.

Also we do not use (almost) vendor-specific solutions. Almost everything your cloud provider sells up to you can be achieved without using the provider lock. Will save time later when provider quality goes into sh*t (eventually happens) and you have to migrate your infra somewhere.
I live in a duplex the middle of a big city with practically no zoning restrictions. I love it here. You're the one complaining self righteously.

I am quoting my original comment because it seems like you didn't read it:

> Not everyone wants to live in a megacity with traffic, air pollution, constant bustle, and restricted personal liberty.

> If financial gain is your only motive as a homeowner, you would actually WANT an increase in density. As you cram more people into a smaller space, the land underneath becomes more valuable. Increased density attracts amenities, restaurants, businesses, nightlife...etc, all of which raise the value of your property.

Do you have an actual response? Or do you just need to be outraged at something?

Hi, thanks for the offer, I caved and provided Dropbox support with a copy of my passport and that seemed to be enough to resolve the issue (I hope, I really really hope).

If you work at Dropbox I think it could still be useful to raise some of the concerns mentioned here with whoever is the product owner of this feature.
Yes, they must have been granted another license to copy the license. Presumably this asked them to also remove attribution to avoid confusion.
I use pihole configured with nextdns DoH as primary upstream server and cloudflare as backup. So all devices connected to the network end up using DoH. Works very well.

In addition, if you configure tailscale on your mobole devices, they can still use your pihole+nextdns/cloudflare even when roaming over 4g.
looks wonderful!

Really? It seems pretty obvious to me that we're in the middle of a huge bubble. The problem is the bubble may not pop for decades because propping up the bubble is government policy at every level from federal to state to local. And if they ever stop, tons of people will be totally screwed. Never mind that even more people are getting screwed by the bubble...

I have a Pihole set up as my DNS resolver on my home network. My understanding is that this blocks ads at the DNS level. So if I it anyone in my family enabled DoH this would defeat the Pihole services? Can someone confirm this?

Big computers are kind of like that - it’s just that the network is composed of ridiculously fast buses and pipes and other forms of pushing vast amounts of data.

The biggest issue you’ll hit as your computer gets bigger is latency, because even light has a speed limit. You can, however, cheat, by distributing your inputs and outputs in space so that, by the time information flows to the right places, that’s where it should be. That and adding more pipes for increased bandwidth.

I currently settle on Emacs (again) after three years of NeoVim. LSP is so much better integrated and works for my needs out of the box. I currently don't miss treesitter, expect for semantic selections at point.

But I realized I could get rid of a massive and ever changing NeoVim configuration mess. Using Emacs 29 though.
Don't use Reddit for Linux or BSD related questions
I had a Lenovo Thinkpad that was certified for RHEL and used Fedora.

- Battery life was terrible compared to Windows (usually 3-4 hours, compared to 8 on Windows).

- The trackpad/trackpoint would often not come back after resume.

- The fingerprint scanner usually worked 20% of the time (while it always worked on Windows) and when it failed, you had to wait for a long timeout, because there is an issue where when IIRC PAM is performing authentication with one module (fingerprint), it cannot support simultaneous authentication through another method (e.g. password authentication).

- I had a Lenovo USB-C Gen 2 Dock, which worked great on Windows. On Linux, the lanes were misconfigured and HBR3 was not enabled, so it was not possible to use an external 4k screen with 60Hz.

It was the full Linux laptop experience as I remembered it. I decided to buy a Thinkpad after using Macs on the desktop for ~14 years. I had really good experiences with Linux on my Ryzen workstation as a desktop, so I thought it might be time to switch on the laptop again. Now I am fully back in Mac territory and probably won't try Linux on a laptop for at least another 5-10 years.

I could have kept the laptop since Windows worked very well. But my brain is just wired for Unix, so no dice.
For someone who might be new to CS I don't think reading papers will be the optimum path towards gaining knowledge.

If the concepts are new and bleeding edge, the reading papers is the only way to become familiar to them. Otherwise, time is better spend reading books and courses, where the said concepts are explained in relation with the others, forming a bigger picture.
I actually love things that are made by the hardware hacker types, but as much as I love miniature things, the only question that I can ask is... Why? I guess it's just a project for the sake of doing a project and that's okay, but I really don't think that wearable computers in the form of glasses are anything but awkward especially when they block your field of vision such as this.
As someone who was a video game developer in a past life, you are right about spaghetti code. Video games past were move fast, break everything. Hacks on hacks.

And as soon as a game was out the door it was forgotten about. A build system would stay around only as long as it was needed to write any critical patches.

You'd be straight into another game, and you would go buy a whole new set of dev machines for the entire team because the ones you started the last game with are now horribly out of date. The old ones with all the source code on would get sold or given away to staff to reuse at home. And the central backup tape would eventually get lost or reused.

The fact that source code to 90s games like Wipeout sometimes appears out of nowhere is awesome. I think one of the only times you'll see that is if a developer burned off a copy of the source to keep for himself. I know I did that to use for personal projects and future resumes. But those discs are long gone.
that part says "this license document" and that refers to the very text in the document that is claimed to be the AGPLv3.

It does not mean it is not allowed to license a work under another license that makes references to the AGPLv3 and includes it, only that the included document should not be changed.

> A better current solution that likely has wide-spread support would be to limit the demand rather than throw more money into the demand side.

black markets spring up to serve demand when there's law and regulation that tries to prohibit such demand. I don't see how making the real estate market this way is gonna get it better.

The only way to make prices drop is to increase supply. trying to tax a fringe group, or to penalize investors etc, is not going to do well at all. And doing so will also dry up investment for growing supply.

> help alleviate some acute symptoms.

A short term symptom abatement, if it even does abate anything, is not going to make any difference tbh. Concentrate on solving the fundamental issue - lack of supply due to various interest groups resisting supply growth.
Thanks for sharing that. It really does help.

I have a theory that I feel most reassured when the people I look up to also share the experience (ie I'm not any less-than for it, and I still have potential despite it), like people on HN, including yourself! because you gave me awesome responses in my other Ask HN regarding my interest in many disciplines!

Section 10 seems to state that licensees cannot add further restrictions, without saying whether the original licensor may add further restrictions. Section 7 says licensees may remove further restrictions, and does not require licensees to determine the provenance of any further restrictions they encounter.
Why is low (or falling) revenue grounds for a low (or falling) valuation? The fundamental feature of modern Intarweb companies is VC's just shovel money into startups indefinitely. The goal isn't for the company to make money, but to serve as a vehicle for selling their stake in the next round to a greater fool.

Something fishy is going on here
Logically thinking, it seems like a survivability strategy built on flying at altitudes that can be detected via visual/acoustic techniques is not going to be sound. The Serbs downed a f117 because they had spies who saw it take off and they predicted its flight plans.
There is a lot of truth in that. Refusal to acknowledge failures and hard truth, ignoring the elephants in the room, default assuming success, hiding or keeping information secret... That's quite a risky combination.
There are various approaches to native compilation on .NET.

NGEN which was there since day one, but its main purpose was fast startup and only allows for dynamic linking.

Mono AOT one, used by Xamarin workloads for iOS and Android deployments.

The Sing# and System C# dialects used by Singularity and Midori respectively.

The MDIL used by Windows Phone 8 and 8.1, based on Singularity's Bartok compiler.

.NET Native introduced in Windows 10 for UWP workloads, replacing the MDIL based one, originally known as Project N.

The NativeAOT pointed by you, which started as a research project on how to bring .NET Native back into main .NET.

Finally some alternative ones like Unity's IL2CPP or CosmOS.
They’ve built their own large language model.
To greatly oversimplify the issues, there was plenty of wrong done it just wasn’t illegal. Don’t confuse good decision making nor morality with legality.

> If the experienced engineer worked at a startup that went anywhere, they have a lot of money and aren't coming to work for you.

This is a stupid view of motivation and competence.

First, it implies people are only motivated by money. At the first startup I worked at, one of the senior engineers had been through 4 successful exits and was in the business to build things.

Second, competence of the engineering org and individual engineers is orthogonal to successful exits. An engineer can successfully ship many iterations of a product that are just a bad market fit and the company will fail. I’d still take that engineer any day over the typical FAANG cog who’s big project was a 2 year tax billing database migration.

Yes. Configuring DoH in firefox will make it bypass the OS configured DNS (usually advertised by your router).

This is the whole point of DoH
Having the Linux kernel as part of the GPL/FSF brand is critical marketing for the FSF. Linux is the thing that is the GPL in most people's minds in business and tech. They know that and are willing to break their own rules to keep it.

I hear the only thing that makes the US a super-power is that commodities are priced in USD. If the main supplier starts selling in some other currency, then you no long have a super-power.

I wonder what the total compute power of earth is if you hooked all the cpus together into a cluster? It would be interesting if in times of extreme need you could harness the earth's compute and run a job parallelized across all nodes, like if an asteroid was imminent and some complex modelling had to be done with no time to wait for compute, or we contact intelligent life and have to upgrade our planet's technology as fast as possible to compete. It's also really a shame so many working cpus just go to the landfill instead of to some agency that could pull them out and throw them into this would be earth supercluster.

I have a small personal website where I write mostly about self-hosting and homelab stuff, kubernetes and have a couple small tutorial series. It's nothing impressive and I've neglected it in the last half a year or so due to university taking up almost all of my time. Also thinking of opening a tidbits section where it's small things I learn instead of waiting to finish something I'm doing and then writing about it.
It's probably more than one thing. I agree with with the points on supply, plus the fact that cities can only grow so much before transportation becomes impossible, and then there is a huge premium to be near the center (watch the traffic in the streets in old movies or documentary from the 1970s compared to now in cities like Paris or London).

But I think another big factor is that we are measuring inflation wrong. I think the various QE had the same effect than any other money printing in history, to drive prices up. But I think the way it was introduced (directly in the financial system, rather than paying people with it), meant that the inflation was localised into financial assets, and to the cost of anyone benefiting from higher financial assets (VC, asset and hedge fund managers, etc). So stock prices skyrocketed, as prime real estate prices, college tuitions, expensive restaurants, etc. But that's not captured by the various CPI indices.

Then came covid, with its new, massive rounds of QE. But this time the money printing was distributed to ordinary citizens through various furlough schemes, financed by deficits, pretty much directly financed by the central bank. And oh surprise, about a year later we see inflation jumping up massively.

So it may be that these inflation adjusted real estate prices charts aren't adjusted as they should.
The most important thing Paul Krugman has proven is that even geniuses can be consistently wrong.

This resonates. It feels like a cliche, but I genuinely feel like I've peaked in life. I excelled in HS. Top of class. Award winning marching band. Full ride to a decent state school. Helped run some student organizations, did great in classes. I took a total detour post-undergrad for a few years to do service work.

But now I'm in my 30's and 5 years into a "real career". I work long days in Operations at a tech marketplace. It's fun problems and I like working with data/product, but it hardly feels like I've living up to the potential I had thrown on me earlier in life. I'm far from the top 1% performer I was in High School / College.

I play a lot of video games and read a never-ending stream of miscellaneous articles. I go to the gym a few days a week and . Maybe once a month I pull out my guitar. I checked off my "adult" milestones -- Married and have a house. But seems like lots of days I just wake up, work, then stare at a TV. It's not all bad -- But reading this list and the failure to start, so many possibilities but I never do anything idea just rings true to me.
