That's funny. Founder. Like if I were a woman I would treat that like, "What? You're in a band?" Like OK lead singer of a known band, then you're not in a band, you're in that band. But it's just nah.

So the view from the inside, like what a VC sees, is that everybody is piling up and it's so so easy to say "I've got hot shit" and you have to be like "yeah maybe." A lot of the time "don't pitch me bro." And set it up like a nightclub, realistically none of the founders will have real tech without getting it from real researchers, so they have to impress you with how well they work the club. Now that I say that I'm figuring out my own strat too, treat it like a club.

So the second secret, don't tell anybody, don't link to this comment, close the doors, unplug the ethernet, turn on the wifi jammers, put your smartphones in the faraday cage, the secret is: everybody wants you to lose. Everybody wants you to lose. Just like in a club. When you accept that, it's so much easier! The entire club wants you to prove you're a lesser man, like sit next to the bar waste your money on drinks (never on a hotel), parade in circles concentrically around the women dancing with their clique of girlfriends in the middle, asking like once or twice and feeling bad for months about being rejected, that's what the club wants the men to do. And there is violence at the club, it's not like "the worst that can happen is she says no" that's a load of shit, it depends on a lot of things.

So it's the same adversarial environment, everything going against you. Realize that, and it's suddenly much easier.
The EU is constantly pushing to backdoor encryption and allow them unfettered access to communication in flight. Local CSAM is just a stepping stone.
My Programming Principles
I think it was mostly because we were used to the voice actors they had been using. The new ones just didn't fit the characters as well. I'm not sure it was an American vs British thing, I think it was more likely 1) you like what you were introduced to, and 2) they hired less qualified voice actors and re-writers to do the cheap dubbing than they originally did when they cast the show.

>Preventing genocide next door is defense

The problem here is that when you give a defensive alliance a mandate to defend entities that are not covered by it's mandate it becomes a de-facto offensive alliance.
Corollary #1 - Marketing /sales is hard. Relative to tech / code it's at least 10x more difficult. Code / tech v human behaviour?? Which is easier to predict and sort out.

Corollary #2 - Nobody cares. You might love your baby (i.e., idea / product / startup) but nobody cares. At all. See Corollary #1 for more details.
> >Translation: During the spring, there has been an important discussion about Finland's possible NATO membership

> This is a very generous description of what happened.

> There has been air of forced consensus in the "discussion" between media, politicians and people on social media.

I think it's pretty much exactly the other way around: For the last three decades, since the fall of Communism and the end of "Finlandization", there has been air of forced consensus in the "discussion" between media, politicians and people on social media around the holy cow of "Neutrality", perhaps (at least to begin with) out of lingering deference to the memory of Kekkonen. In reality, Finland has always been a "Western" country; the invasion of Ukraine was just the impetus to finally realise it / admit it to themselves / openly admit it.

> People have been branded as "putinist" or "playing into Putin's hand" for merely suggesting that the decision shouldn't be rushed, and that there needs to be thorough analysis before making a decision.

Everybody has been thinking about it for thirty years (in Sweden, for seventy); you wanna take another thirty years, or what? If they aren't done thinking now, they never will be.

Robert Murray-Smith #1036 – Flux Switching and Possible over Unity
The ship has sailed for Russia already. USA will not tolerate obstruction by Germany, France or Hungary. Recent meeting about Ukraine support was hold in Ramstein and this place was chosen intentionally - to show who is the master of the show and who should sit and listen.

By attacking Ukraine Russia wanted to "push" NATO away from its borders, but it all went backwards - now they will have a new, 1300 km long border with NATO member countries.

Russian fleet in Petersburg can be decommissioned now, as there is no merit to maintain it while Gulf of Finland can be easily blocked and is under traditional artillery control from Estonia and Finland side (it is just 80-100 km wide).

In fact in case of military conflict Petersburg is lost, can be attacked from the West and the North by land and covered by long range rocket artillery like Himmars (it is just 200 km away from Finnish and Estonian borders).

Same story with Murmansk harbor, it will be very difficult for Russia to defend it against attack from Norway and Finland given the very long and fragile supply line - a single E105 route, 1000 km long or train connection that goes along that route. Imagine famous Kiev 60 km convoy multiplied by 10 and attacked not by post-soviet era weapon that Ukraine had but by state of the art equipment.

Russia will have to put a lot of forces over there to be able to protect new attack line that they have opened by themselves. Build hell a lot of new infrastructure, provide logistic support, etc. The costs will be exorbitant.

When countries like Poland, Romania or Baltic countries became NATO members it was clear that they will need to be protected by western armies (although Poland is quickly catching up with its military potential, other countries is developing too). Right now situation is different: two very strong, well equipped, well trained armies are joining the Pact.

Another 300 modern tanks, Sweden by itself has more than 400 modern combat aircrafts of various types, Finland has just contracted 60 F-35 (with loyal wingman option that doubles the potential in future), plus artillery and other best of class equipment.

Indeed, Putin, Gerasimov and Shoygu are master strategists.
I'm a bit in a similar boat: My wife's department (university) asked me for a 'little' favor, which I programmed in Java to get back into programming after ~4 years of being a stay-at-home dad. After finishing the prototype in 2019, we made the life-changing decision to focus on making it a program that we want to sell. Decided to go C++ and Electron, but with the corona virus and me taking forever to learn all the skills, I still haven't released it as of now. :(

However, I'm still working on it and hope to release it in time for a conference that I signed up for, so this will be a 'make or break' year for me.
If you focus only on the non-jewish civilian population of Poland, then I guess you could argue Soviet was worse... But in any larger context, Nazi-Germany were much, much worse.

> Ok, I will say out loud, it is correct thing to say.

It may be a "correct thing to say" (aka: popular), but this is distinctly different from correct from en epistemology perspective.

> But it was part I 100% agree with.

You are welcome to agree, but I am discussing what is true (and indirectly, the nature of human consciousness, which renders the customized/unique "reality" that each person on this forum experiences, and tends to mistake for reality itself).
Do you plan to opensource the implementation some time?
Quantum Physics and General Relativity make different predictions in specific circumstances which are beyond our ability to test to figure out which one is wrong. They can't both be perfectly correct. But in every test we can make, both seem to model reality really well.

The best place to look for new data where we might find reality disagreeing with either model is in the extreme parts of the universe, like black holes. If there was even a hint in this photo that General Relativity wasn't perfectly accurate, we might be able to take the discrepancy and build a new model that solves the disagreement.

Whoever does that gets a Nobel Prize and has their name as immortalized as "Einstein".
Yes it depends on context, but you should be able to lean on the existing context to shorten local names. E.g. a lambda param dealing with a collection of xxx_yyy_zzz_items can just be called item or xyz_item (if there are other item-like things nearby). Only lengthen the method body or take up vertical space with long names if it adds more than it detracts from reading and understanding the whole.

> It certainly feels, as if they are trying to do that.

Putin's been there for 22 years, Kim is there by rights of birth, in my country the PM has been there for 18 months and it looks like he's not going to last till the natural end of the legislature, in 2023.

His career as dictator 4 life looks pretty bleak from my POV.
> can you really blame people for investing?

Not if it was investing. But they are not investing. Investing requires restraint, calculated risk-taking, and understanding of what it is exactly that you're buying.

"yolo all in on Terra" is not investing. It's gambling.

Would you feel sorry for someone who put his entire monthly salary on a single spin of a slot machine? I certainly wouldn't.
Going to guess some things are exempt. But yes, you are right. Our nda’s do not allow this either.

Everything, including Heroku, feels a bit immature compared to GAE. Just the stackdriver logging alone is worth the price. I couldn't live without cloud tasks. And of course the autoscaling...

DOAP has some minor issues and a very minimal feature list but it's significantly less expensive than GAE. I use it to run a memory-hungry image processing service that would otherwise hurt too much. We still log remotely to stackdriver.
Basically they're bored/want mysteries to solve.

This is how censorship started in Turkey. They said that they are not going to censor opposing view but now 99% of censorships are to silence anything that speaks against the current president.
This had me laughing loudly, and sadly.

Really super good article, give it a read if you haven't shipped because of reasons
Yeah, but it sold just fine with the original title in all other markets. If I were from the US I'd be offended that the publishers decided to dumb it down. That's literally an insult to the society.

And the EU would be open to that if the CIS countries (especially Russia) were democratic, had rule of law, and respected human and civil rights. 20 years ago there was even talk of Russia possibly joining NATO, until Putin made it clear that he wanted special treatment.

It's dictatorships and countries governed by corruption instead of rule of law that will always make the EU jump into bed with the US. If Russia and China want to weaken the relationship between the EU and US, they should embrace democracy, freedom of speech, freedom of information (no censorship) and respect human rights. Once that happens, the EU can afford to be critical of the US' many, many flaws.
Thank you for the awesome list! Yes, audiobooks are awesome. One habbit that kind of faded away in my life is biking and listening to them. Will strive to restart it.

I've read 12 rules in the past (perhaps in the year it came out?), and yes, even though I don't agree with a lot of Petereson's opinions politically, it is just a good helpfull book to help one center his routine and life goals around. I wonder if the sequel is as good!

Again, thank you!
I know we must see this very differently, but to casually suggest this even as the ‘direction’ you want to go in seems very … unconstrained and authoritarian.

When signing up for marketing/SaaS specialized blog/aggregator article submissions, don't use an email address you want to keep using, because you will end up on thousands of marketing lists.

Also, just don't do that anyway. It was a total waste of time, focus on legitimate grass roots sales activities. I thought I might as well give it a go, as they said they'd get the app on ProductHunt and so on. I was skeptical of that, but no harm if it doesn't work. It didn't work and it was a generally scummy experience, and some of the submissions they made on my behalf were very embarrassing for me. Wrong place, wrong tone, wrong words, that kind of thing.
Seeing as how things are going in China/Russia/N. Korea we should all learn to fight for our rights to freedom and privacy and not turn them over to the government. Western democracy is currently losing the cultural war and people aren't taking notice. US democracy was almost subverted by a phony bologna real estate scheister. I'm not sure why people think governments and rights can't change overnight unless we're diligent to push back against surveillance and other gross governmental overreach.
tbf, there is already a mystery to solve. This just means we have no new information to help us solve it.

The plan makes sense. A likely issue for folks currently preparing papers in LaTeX
is that they will be put off by the extra work of having to port/write another copy of their document in Nota, but maybe this is intended. You shouldn't just be dumping your paper to the web.

Re documents that would be useful, you could dogfood Nota with 242 to show how powerful it could be to teach students PL theory. A course like 15-312 would be much less intimidating for students if materials were encoded both informally/formally in Nota. You could imagine porting one chapter from PFPL as a small example.

I'm teaching a new course on algorithms in the spring and I plan to try it out to develop some online course materials. Will get in touch with you with any questions / to share what we prototype. You might also want to share this with Umut who has been developing (what I believe is) a KaTeX-based system called Diderot that a lot of CMU courses are using now.
I think what you’re looking for is Bot fight mode, which is a product we have that lets you block bots and customize how you react to them. There’s a free tier and capabilities get more powerful as you price things out [1]. I would imagine that when we add support for public buckets, we’ll be thinking about how that integrates with Bot fight mode (e.g. enabling the free tier automatically).

Putting cache in front of public buckets is also something you’ll be able to do.

Rate limiting is very similar to spending limits and, at the scale you’re talking about, they’re just expressing the same concept from different perspectives. R2 is currently naturally rate limited anyway because we can’t go faster but that will obviously evolve as we improve the system. Additionally, you can’t currently have public buckets (at least not without exposing it through a Worker you write). The main use for rate limiting and spending limits is more about being OK choosing to have an outage because of a spike in load (e.g. your project going viral unexpectedly on HN before you’ve cost-optimized it for that kind of scale).

From a motivation/incentives perspective, Cloudflare is a SaaS company focusing on security and trust. We’re never incentivized to have unhappy customers, no matter how big of a bill we can deliver for any given month. Doubly so when that comes because you’re under attack vs you’re having success.

So TLDR:

1. Bot fight mode is probably useful as a DOS mitigation tool when hosting a public bucket.

2. When we add virtual pathing, buckets are hosted under your account domain. Unlike with other providers, people can’t scrape public records to find what buckets you’ve exposed (intentionally or otherwise) to the public.

3. The product is currently naturally rate limited.

4. Rate limiting isn’t a viable solution here because an outage is not meaningfully better from us charging you insane amounts of month for that month. If you get an unexpectedly large bill, please reach out to Cloudflare support.

5. Public buckets don’t actually exist yet.

6. Cloudflare is in the business of security and trust and we’re incentivized to do our best to engender that trust.

Does that speak to your concerns?
Yes, apart from everyone's views on crypto itself.

As a programmer or system designer I urge everyone (who hasn't already) look at the "system design" of bitcoin ! It's beautiful and elegant, like a self-correcting organism ! Ja sure it's not perfect, but dammit it's a hell of a lot better than what I could have come up with :)

I'm of course ONLY talking about the system-design components here: (difficulty, mining, minting rate, consensus, ledger etc)

YMMV
I just noticed that. Opening the Settings menu shows a spinner! Are they downloading the list of settings items from the internet?!!
They just change it slightly every time until it passes. But it won’t be very potent in the end; I cannot imagine blanket encryption backdoors etc will be voted in. But if it does I am gone, out of principle. As tech person I cannot stand the stupidity of this all. I hope I am dead before I run out of countries to go to.
