I'm just curious if a direct interconnect from Morocco->UK is the best solution from an engineering perspective, or if a Morocco->EU->UK interconnect would work better without the politics.

Not to mention that plumber probably doesn't have health coverage. The people who love to talk about what a fine profession that would be (for other people's kids, of course, never their own kids) are the same people who fight tooth and nail against any kind of health care policy that might make a non-white collar career more viable.

It's funny that the article rather explicitly rejects such theories of malfeasance/corruption/etc. and, instead, points to cognitive effects interacting with the decision-making process as a plausible cause that is compatible with assumptions of good faith and competence.

So, arguably, the only person confident of being in possession of the truth is the one with the ready-made cynical quote.
If not wanting to live in an enclave as a nominally second-class citizen is racist, then I don't know what to say. Let's not deny reality here, that's really what you end up being if you try to interact with the main racial group in a rural area, or at least the vast majority of them. It doesn't matter what race this happens to be, it's how people work.

I know an Englishman who lives in an Indonesian village (not an enclave). He is constantly reminded that while his presence is cherished, he isn't, and never will be "one of them." He still loves it, though, so there's that.
Facebook is a straight-up fake news booster that has decided it is interests to spread Covid misinformation and videos casting doubt on the occurrence of actual war crimes and genocides. Doesn't seem to engage in much censorship at all, unfortunately.

But my point is that contemporary "conservatives" (I prefer not to call this bullshit conservatism) rail against "cancel culture" and pretend like they're defenders of free speech, but it's yet another context and instance in which they are hypocrites.

Friends of mine who make a combined way less than you bought new construction across the river in Vancouver, WA.

Even staying just in the State of Oregon finds places under $200k (perhaps not the most desirable of building types, but certainly above a mobile home). But that may really put you in the "sticks" - south middle of Oregon is some of the most unpopulated land in the USA.

Rent-control may end up trapping you in another way; fear to move because of your current deal. Had a friend stay in a three-bedroom apartment long after he should have moved up to a house for just this reason.
For me, the paranoid/anxious/fixated type of high can be a feature, not a bug. I try to meditate when it happens. Marijuana can be a tool to exaggerate the way you're feeling about mistakes, shortcomings, and flaws you perceive in yourself, and when you're not high, you can assess what to do about how you're feeling. It's helped me make peace with my self image, and forced me to confront negative habits and patterns in my life.

Drugs can be great to poke and prod your psyche and help with questions like "why do I think or feel like this?"

Identifying things in your environment that trigger anxiety or paranoia can also make your home a more comfortable and cozy place. When your perception is altered, it's an opportunity to learn new things. The new perspective can be a valuable tool for becoming a better version of yourself.
Your last point explains your former difficulty. There’s no retail willingness to pay, but a lot of willingness to inquire and waste someone’s time. Start with an in-country PCBA firm; they’re likely to have someone or know someone.

Alternatively, inquire on an enthusiast forum (eevblog) or talk to your local Ham radio club.

The same reason no one is advertising this skill to retail buyers of $200 electronics is the reason to not include a spurious $2-4 socket.
Hopefully - I might be being a bit harsh on IKEA specifically. There's certainly a lot of "IKEA-like furniture" PS foam packaging out there that I often see overflowing the recycling.
Not just in Africa. There was a huge ad campaign in the US a few decades ago implying that Enfamil and Similac were healthier options than breast feeding. This was pushed especially hard in economically depressed areas that could least afford it.

Not altogether unlike the ad campaigns convincing folks that (free) water with a meal was vaguely wrong. "By they way," they said, "we've got some special brown water with a fukton of added sugar and CO2 for sale instead!"
This reduces the impact of randomness, which is a good thing I think. It's too easy for choice of first word to dictate the result.
Sytems engineering, as a engineering discipline, is treating other things than Nietzsche did. Unless you go to philosophical meta questions about "systems", I have yet to encounter those in real life.
The story between Objective-C, Strongtalk, SELF, Tcl and Java is a bit more complicated than that.

> Serious question, is there a requirement for the nuclear family?

The answer depends on where you are. It's nowhere as strict as "if you have a child outside a nuclear family, you go to jail". But there may be all sorts of softer pressures in place.

Now, I don't think having such pressures is necessarily bad in all places. It becomes bad when it's a "one solution fits all" approach, and the pressure is applied even in situations where dissolving a traditional nuclear family would be in the participants' (especially the children's) best interests.

Putting myself in the shoes of black folks, I can certainly see how certain conservative initiatives cross that line.
This is supposedly where the idiom "bought the farm" comes from.
> Where do I find people who can do that?

Your local hackerspace/makerspace is likely to have people who can do it, though I don't know how you'd find people who do it professionally. It's a bit of a weird niche, though as the supply chains continue to crumble I expect it to become a more popular one in the years to come. But if you can't find anyone who does it, perhaps there's an opportunity for you to jump into!

I expect this sort of thing to take the form of people who buy "broken, parts only" equipment on eBay/Craigslist/etc and fix it at their own location, on their own time, and then resell it, though. It's less likely to be a customer facing activity.
If your perspective on housing is "just need a place to live", then paying off a mortgage for 20 years is hardly a problem. You are tied down, yes, but if you have friends and family in the area and like where you live, it's hardly a problem - it's just a life.

(Of course this is different if the intention is "buy a place, wait until it rises in value, flip it, and repeat")

That said, you need to want to put down roots, and you need to like where you're putting those down. I love Vancouver, I've been here 20 years, I left for 5, and came back. This is where I want to raise my kids. But this is a highly privileged perspective backed by having a good well-paying job that lets me afford to live here (in a 3-bedroom condo in east van).

Still, travelling the world for 5 years sounds like a fantastic plan to figure out what you want to do in life and scouting out parts of the world that you can imagine living. That could mean finding something more rural, or finding a city more off the beaten path that you identify with that doesn't have international prestige and ridiculous VHCOL.

As a counterpoint, I never even had a computer until sophomore year in college. I made it through CS and then about 20 years writing code. Now I’m more of a manager but still save a few things in the sprint for myself from time to time.

So I should save my outrage for juveniles acting like juveniles on a juvenile platform rather than a grown man playing psychologist and successfully clickbaiting a moderated adult platform?

One could argue I shouldn't be outraged at either, particularly given HN's track record of dealing with anything complex involving human beings rather than technology. But I haven't entirely given up on adults capable of engaging in extended discourse, for better or worse.
If you run into that situation, then just turn off hard mode and put PRIDE to eliminate some words.
Yeah, thanks for the correction. I totally misremembered the order of events (I thought they were still open as a business when they created the foundation) and amounts.
prediction: growing percentage of young Americans first "home" purchase will in fact be a car purchase. more and more will buy a vehicle they can live in

because home prices have boosted drastically, even rents are up, and with renting you throw cash away you could otherwise save towards buying a home

thus, a generation who expects and plans to live in cars

at least those not born with a silver spoon in their mouth or who otherwise can get high paying jobs. which describes the vast majority of American youth
Just this afternoon I was working on reversing a closed source library that wasn’t working on M1 under Rosetta, using Ghidra. If you get the chance, you should do a post on how you actually modified the program to get it to do what you want (as long as the fix isn’t trivial, like changing a constant).

My exercise today made me realize just how much more difficult the modification of the binary is than simply understanding it, as well as how much I hate the x86 architecture (and CISC in general).

Ayahuasca "cured" my depression. When I say "cured", I mean that it helped me experience my mind without depression. Because I was able to step out of depression for the first time since prepubescence, I realized it was possible for my mind to exist away from depression. That realization was profound and critical to regaining my mental health.

Psychedelics are very powerful. Ayahuasca in particular can and does induce psychotomimetic states, as described in the article. If you are not in ceremony with a trained plant medicine practitioner, this "pseudo psychosis" can become very overwhelming and even damaging.
Mindset is necessary but not sufficient. Some environments encourage learning, while others discourage it. That's the trick behind the "orders of magnitude" sleight of hand. Is not that you learn 100 times faster in some companies (whatever that even means), but that in some places you don't learn anything at all, and in others you pick up bad habits that could count as negative learning.

For example one of my previous companies was very top down, siloed and hierarchical. One time I went to talk with a PM from a different team about the prioritization of certain customer features, and my boss got really pissed off. He told me I should never talk directly with anyone and should always communicate via him. This was also the kind of place where new ideas were shut down and opposing the main point of view could get you in trouble.

What about the opposite, people who have the environment but not the mindset? Some might coast years in big tech actively refusing to learn, but it is rare. Most often they will be put in situations that make them uncomfortable and will choose to leave (reorgs are common). Other times their performance will simply suffer if they aren't able to keep up with the team.
MAME seems to have had "skeleton driver" (i.e.: very rough and unfinished) support for a number of 80s- and 90s-era synths, given that they're very similar to video game hardware from the same era. In my reverse engineering for this project, I realized that the MAME driver might now boot, but there's an extremely long way to go before audio comes out; the K2 series used custom ASICs for waveform generation that have no public documentation. I've heard that some folks much smarter than me know how to de-cap chips and reverse engineer them from the hardware, but I'll be extremely impressed if someone can make that happen and emulate those chips efficiently.

Reuse is good but it's also kinda hard in two ways I've found: you will accumulate too many "reusable" plastic items (one or two coke bottles you reuse is fine, but what are you going to do with twenty?), and also some are tricky to reuse (how do I reuse my candy bar wrapper or shrink wrap my item came packaged in?)
i've been on exactly same thought for a long time now

the effect you get by offering ownership is that existing personell will be more motivated to work harder and stay at your company for longer (so that the shares can vest)

The Rich, Black Soil That Fed a Growing China Is Washing Away
It barely works.

Google Drive deletes files randomly (whether due to programmatic/storage problems or the documented issue with the algo not liking things and silently deleting them).

Missing block level sync reinforces that it's a toy. What would you do with 100+gb they tout if not having big media files? 10,000 spreadsheets (that might still randomly get deleted)?

I would be afraid to rely on it for business
Ah, thanks for that.

> Basically, disregard everything you’ve learned about KMS from the world of Raspberry Pi. It’s only relevant to the quirkiness of the Raspberry Pi’s half-closed ecosystem.

It's funny, I just posted a comment about being afraid to dig into KMS code for fear a wizard would show up and tell me I'm looking in a wrong or irrelevant place. Luckily, your comment preempts that process.

And also luckily, I've only thrown flags at Chromium provided by other wizards so far. So my ignorance about KMS remains pure. :)

> The non-fake driver has been all sorts of problematic but it’s getting better.

So... are there like two different teams, one Pi-specific 'f', one general 'not f', racing to see whose module will become stable first?

Do both teams stream on Twitch? If not they should.

But presumably an interconnect from Morocco->Spain would free up export resources from France, which could then be exported to the UK via a shorter interconnect. Similarly, direct HVDC connections can be run overland rather than under the sea. I'm not saying these solutions are better. I'm asking how much of the current proposal is due to political constraints and how much is actually the best engineering solution given the resources available.
> While housing has indeed gotten more expensive you can't compare absolute prices.

Horseshit. Homes built in 1946 are selling for millions of dollars, even if they're going to be torn down and rebuilt for marginal cost. You're not buying a house, you're buying the land and taking responsibility for everything on it.

And even then, the lumber you get out of such an old house is quite valuable virgin oldgrowth, a better quality product than you can buy at a lumber yard today.

And, to pick a nit... comparing the median income to median house price is an examination of relative price, not absolute.
It might be subset of typosquatting, but it's distinct from what the term usual refers to because the typos that are statistically likely to result from user input (swapping neighboring keys, duplicating or omitting letters, etc) occur manually on the level of keys and characters, where as from those that result from bitflips ("adjacent" bit sequences) occur invisibly / without a manual mistake on the level of bit-/byte-streams, forming two mostly exclusive sets of domains that could be targeted. A determined attacker would likely target both.

I hope this person never has a kid. Enjoy your rent doubling to get enough space and either losing your partner's income or spending $3k a month on day care. Plus whatever crappy insurance you're getting for $400 a month is going to leave with $10k+ in bills for just birthing the kid.
Sharing a border isn't a claim. (France and Spain share a border - which one has a claim as a result?)

Every border is a result of "taken from them at gunpoint." (It's not hard to find folks who had large pieces of Spain taken from them at gunpoint.)

Dependency isn't a claim. It is, however, a tool for taking.
That's true actually, the rc.conf file is a little bit Nix-like. It's basically a single file for all your configuration. Never thought of it that way.

Many applications don't obey it though. Makes sense because they'd have to make code specifically for FreeBSD and its marketshare is tiny.
The first partner he had in the biz was frakkin' Woz. Woz is a titanic genius engineer, 99% of the people who've ever even viewed HN would naturally draft behind him (especially back then).

From there, SJ saw that he could have more impact driving engineers to achieve a vision than he ever could soldering or programming.
Sounds like you’re referring to a pretty specific brand of “the ancients” and I’m guessing it’s not the ones from Stargate. Unfortunately when someone refers to “the ancients” in this way, my brain automatically assumes they are into some wacky new age stuff.

A year or so ago I wrote a raytracer in swift (writing RTs is how I learn languages, and they’re not the super fancy advanced feature ones, think university assignment), and actually made a BVH for a change. It is amazing the perf difference you get from binned construction, it obviously makes sense when you actually think about it, but until you do think you don’t know just how much perf you’re losing.

It’s nice to see the surface area heuristic still hasn’t gone anywhere :)
Minor sidenote / hopefully welcome feedback:

When pasting HN link lists like this, it's extra considerate to include the dates and comment counts, since sometimes stories have little or no discussion.
Clicking through the links blindly wastes human time, especially for a longer list such as your post.
Another interesting project along these lines is a couple of hackers managed to reverse engineer the firmware for the Elektron Machinedrum (a classic early 00’s digital drum machine) and add a bunch of new functionality, such as new effects, a melodic mode and more.

You can download it from https://www.elektronauts.com/t/machinedrum-sps1-uw-x-06-rele.... They’ve unfortunately kept the details of how they did it somewhat private (I believe at the request of Elektron), though some notes on their initial reverse engineering can be found here: https://github.com/jmamma/MIDICtrl20_MegaCommand/issues/88

You should hire a 3rd world troll farm to stalk these people everywhere they go urging them to kill themselves.

Only way to repent for your sins.

Edit:

>> On the issue of empathy, I think this quote from Captain G. M. Gilbert at the Nuremberg trials sums it up;

"In my work with the defendants (at the Nuremberg Trails 1945-1949) I was searching for the nature of evil and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy. It’s the one characteristic that connects all the defendants, a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.”

So yes, the world is likely better off with them dead :)
Ok good to know that sort of makes this easier to respond to.

So they’re not “rebelling against work” and the article as a whole is just so reductionist. What most are doing is questioning 1) what we find acceptable in a work environment and 2) what we find acceptable to pay people for a day of their labor.

If you’re Gen Z, unlike middle to older millennials, chances are you weren’t raised with the “bootstraps” narrative quite as baked into things because their parents weren’t all able to pay for college with summer jobs or a house with an entry level job. They also are part of the first generation that is questioning if college is worth it. Left and right, up and down, all they see are closing doors and lack of financial mobility.

So what’s the logical response to seeing a system that doesn’t seem like they can work within it? A call for change. “No, I won’t work for $7.25. No, I don’t want six figure debt to get a degree and maybe have a job. No, I can’t do what I love for pay because no one respects it since it isn’t STEM.”

The list goes on.
