> TLS also does not support non-TCP transport protocols

eh?

TLS is a record based protocol and you can use it over bits of paper transported by pigeon if you like, can't you? I've looked into it extensively (though not for a few years I'll admit), and I've seen TLS implementations that don't include any transport mechanism - that bit it left to the application. I know that it must receive things in-order, and perhaps that does rule out UDP... but there's DTLS :)

That doesn't mean this isn't interesting, and I have no idea how 'offloadable' TLS or DTLS might be. This scheme seems to use derivable keys, so that packet sequence isn't important, but it looks also like we have a mac-then-encrypt scheme. I presume it's been analysed properly...

Definitely worth digging into.
Waiting for this feature for too long! Really good!
Every single one of them came out a better coder. They might have been dragged kicking and screaming to the multi-core but they would've had to get there in the end.
How good are you really?

Because if you are really and truly excellent, my advice is to not bother with caring about the rest of the room, and to just focus on the quality of your day to day life.

There's diminishing returns on 'success' and a diminishing supply of your time.

I burnt out on the cycle of "excited to finally be in the bigger pond," then "doing really well in this pond," to "wait, this is all this pond has to offer?" And repeat.

There's brilliant people out there. They will rarely be the person on the other end of the check. And even when they are, the person on the other end of THEIR check is certainly going to be a moron.

You'll see potential around every corner. You'll get excited about just what you and the other brilliant people you finally found will be able to accomplish. And then you'll watch what actually plays out and it will crush you.

If you have a nice life, and find fulfillment in what you have outside of work, don't sacrifice your work life balance to put more into work in the pursuit of finding fulfillment there.

Unfortunately society still just isn't quite at the point where it's realized the value in attracting the absolute best by offering them much less work.

If/when that changes and you can find yourself working one to two days a week making a living and networked with true peers - jump to that pond immediately.

Until then, beware of leaping from the pan to the fire.

> He went about it the wrong way

If you wouldn't mind, please explain the right way. He went to his superiors first, was told to shut up and go back to work. Even when he released the black and white evidence, James Clapper stood in front of Congress and lied about the programs under oath.

> ran like a coward and hid

Not before, but after you're in his shoes, where you have US intelligence trying to figure out how to rendition you to a CIA blacksite and have you unpersoned and murdered, you can judge his wish to stay alive.

If he was a coward, he would have ignored the crimes the government was paying him to participate in like all the other people he worked with at the NSA.

> it's most likely he did

I'd argue the opposite. If his goal was to ferret intelligence to foreign countries he wouldn't have released anything to the press, the two actions are completely at odds.

> I like my heroes to have an ounce of manhood and bravery

He risked his life, and gave up everything he had, to expose these crimes to try and help his countrymen. That's enough manhood and bravery for me.

> I do consider the ACLU more qualified to handle any potential US gov't abuses of Snowden

The government is abusing Snowden without help from the ACLU right this moment by seeking his prosecution. You seem to have a very mistaken impression of the power of the ACLU.

> He's just a traitor

He literally did nothing to justify that label. The only traitors in this story are the people working for the NSA participating in these crimes against the American people.

> Yet he trusts the Russian system. You can't make this stuff up. But here you are.

You have strong opinions yet are uninformed. Snowden is in Russia because that's where he was during a flight layover at the moment the US State Department canceled his passport making it impossible for him to leave the country. If you're so angry he's in Russia (why would you care?) you can thank the US State Department.
What? Cloudflare workers has far better javascript support than Compute@Edge, and you don't need to email them to sign up like you do with Fastly. You can try it yourself after creating an account.

They also just announced a couple of crazily useful features that Fastly does not have [1] [2]. In fact, you can bet that most new things Cloudflare releases are complete innovations. They are changing the landscape with nearly every new offering.

On top of that, Cloudflare workers are faster [3]. Not sure how many people need 200+GB downloads, maybe that's a niche Fastly does cover, though given their history of dubious claims I'd want to see that working before trusting their declarations.

Then, they are open sourcing the workers codebase [4], which is absolutely huge, along with forming a working group for standardizing this type of interface [5]. It's everything you could dream of because they're leading the way before you know you need it.

Seriously no idea what you are talking about with morals. Like, in regards to which websites they allow to be on their system? I'm really tired of this argument. We can't just close off core internet services to people with whom we disagree. That only increases tension in society. If anything, that speaks to Cloudflare's higher moral fiber.

The Chariots of Fire soundtrack, which won him an Oscar and topped the charts for weeks, was in part a tribute to his father, who had been an enthusiastic amateur runner. But Vangelis played down the popularity it received and said it was "just another song".

Really cool video. I love it when people teach concepts through using the concepts themselves (like how he shows himself in an accurate Gameboy display matrix and even "fades" the video of himself as he explains how fading worked).
How did you feel about 2000?
Sounds like you learned a lot and are a better programmer from it. Pretty much everything hasn't changed and you can either hope Moore's law bails you out somehow or you can take what you have learned and apply that to the reality of whatever hardware you happen to be optimizing, CPU or GPU. Sorry it's painful but to eke out max performance it's going to be hard at times.
So when you don't have to pay attention to speed and position of cars around you then you can spend more time predicting other motorists?

What are you basing your predictions on if you don't even know the distance to the one in front of you?

I used to think I was a 10x developer but then in grad school I spent an hour with a university post doc optimizing an embedded OS to decrease its power consumption. It took 1 month for me to understand what he did in that hour.

And then I took a graphics class with an undergrad in that same school and he created a ray tracing program in 30 minutes or so and it also ran the first time he did a run on visual studio. He then went out to do a dance practice with his friends. I sat there in the lab for the rest of the night trying to understand Ray tracing and what happened.

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." - Ben Franklin [1]

I don't need to rationalize technical reasons for believing this. Driving drunk is already illegal; the over-prevalence of it is an enforcement and sentencing issue. The same could be said for many several other driving and personal safety issues.

I will outright state that given the choice between my expected delta mortality rate due to driving in southern CA with vs. without a speed-governed, breathalyzer equipped, government regulated mandated vehicle law - I'd take the risk as is. 100%, every time. Giving the government or other large bureaucracy this level of control over anything has a much larger negative side. Yes! I am willing to die for liberty. Even more willing to have a tiny bit higher chance of getting killed on the road for liberty.

It's a non-issue. The US alone can produce enough to supply the world, but we pay farmers to let fields fallow to keep prices up. Africa is full of fertile land and could be feeding the world, if we weren't actively destabilizing countries. Canada produces millions of tons, and looks like they are also growing extra.

You could try working on a cross-functional project where maybe you're the only coder on the project, working alongside e.g. one 10x biologist, one 10x mechanical engineer, and one 10x optical engineer on something cross-disciplinary.
Does this identify with you at all?

- You’re checking out everyone else’s PRs and requesting changes for all the bugs you find. The few times you don’t a major outage occurs.

- Everyone’s asking you for help all the time. You actually find a way to “help” all of them but really you’re just solving their problems for them

- You say you love your job, but really it’s not like what it used to be. You’re no longer excited to be woken up at 2am to fix an outage.

- You never aimed to be here, doing this, working here. But here you are and this is now your baby.

Your baby has grown up. As long as you are here the stress will eat at you. But can I encourage you that a better life awaits you. Change will be hard, but what is waiting for you on the other side is so much better. But it takes humility, humility that “project x” will go on without you (definitely not as smoothly but others will step up to the plate). Humility to try something new where you are in the bottom 10% working your way up once again. It will feel like you’re giving up all the hard work you’ve put in, giving up what makes you king of the hill, but it’s worth it. It’s worth it because life isn’t about being king, but about the journey. Welcome to a life of freedom, of learning something new every day, of waking up each morning and diving into whatever is on your heart to discover.
Vegetables also have horrendous nutritional profiles. For the most part, the only parts of plants with anything approaching good nutritional qualities are fruits. Human resistance to various poisons also makes certain root vegetables like potatoes acceptable, but they are not great. I will continue extracting the preponderance of my nutrition from meat.

There is no gauge difference between Russia and Ukraine.

In fact, even some (small) parts of Polish railways use Russian gauge - remnant of the times when Soviet raw materials were delivered in bulk to Polish metallurgic plants.

Dude that's cool for the time, for assembly, now it's way lower than that. Under 1000 bits. But that's only possible on the GA144 cores, MISC (minimal instruction set instead of RISC reduced instruction set). So so terse. I think the size of a program is grows asymptotically slower than for other architectures, just thought of that now.
There's an interesting comment in the tweets that links to an article claiming high levels of uric acid in the blood of high achievers. The article is about the consequent prevalence of gout in that demographic.

Less well known is uric acid's effect on hypertension -- which would also perhaps (anecdotally) explain likely elevated levels of heart attack and stroke in that same demographic.

All terribly confounded, though. Hard to unravel chickens from eggs, lifestyle factors etc.
I’d encourage you to read Taber with a grain of salt. As someone with some on-the-ground experience with production agriculture, I find her takes sometimes distorted and one-sided. They do feed a narrative that clearly resonates with folks without that background, though.

When people label humans as narcissists or their behaviors as narcissistic (or socialist/fascist/sexist/etc), I mostly feel confused at what they mean and wish they would describe more specific behaviors, and ideally, how they themselves were feeling in response to those behaviors. I think we sometimes use such labels as shortcuts and assume others know what we mean, and yet by abstracting so much, we can create more distance and less understanding. I believe these terms can become buckets into which we throw all sorts of "they did something evil / that hurt me" actions that may or may not relate to the theory of narcissism.

In lieu of that, when I hear someone claim someone else is a narcissist, I mostly just assume the person claiming that feels very hurt or angry by something that other person did.
> Battery farms, which is purely fed on crops grown where humans could grow food

They are mostly fed on the byproducts of human food production. Human-edible material has higher margins than cattle feed, so cattle feed either comes from human ag byproducts (like soy meal) or from land that probably isn't good for much except hay.
Tires and brakes already do that. This would just do it more.

Typical compressive strengths in concrete mixes for construction applications is often around 3000psi, which is actually about the same as HDPE. “Flowable fill” might be closer to 800-1000psi, which is close to end-grain compressive strength of some common lumber products. Special concrete mixes can be used to get almost 20,000psi, which is a bit less than steel (which has much higher tensile strength).

The real value proposition of concrete is that it’s made out of very common materials and can be produced in enormous quantities in most places in the world at low cost.
The cardboard bowl from Whole Foods is likely water-proofed with PFAS.

People with PFAS in their blood tend to be overweight or underweight. The body eliminates PFAS very ver slowly. There was a recent study that showed that replacing a person's blood plasma was an effective way to remove PFAS. Keeping it out of the blood seems to be much harder.

PG was right about the idea of a search engine for coders. But this comes up short. I wonder how old your crawl might be? I did a search and came up with links to an old open source project which hasn't been active for 7-8 years and the source isn't even on GitHub anymore.

I'd encourage you to keep trying. The key is to curate the results with people using that language every day. When they keep a tab open to it all day then start promoting it to people using that language. If you could crawl all the language groups on Slack and include those in the results it would be awesome.

> Imo, Vangelis brought the synthesizer from an experimental novelty to an instrument for composition. The two sounds I associate with him are the long brassy triangle with a steep envelope that we know from both Blade Runner and the accompaniment to the piano in the Chariots of Fire theme, and his effective use of chimes.

One of the most memorable parts of the Blade Runner soundtrack is the brass synth that casually tools around the blues scale. It sounds like an homage to old detective films and grounds the entire movie.

I wonder-- did that influence the intro to Dire Straits' Money for Nothing? It begins with a nice little synth bass and some arpeggiator bleeps and blorps, but there's a similar synth that similarly cruises around a blues scale for a bit.

Digression-- after listening to it again, I noticed that pentatonic synth business in Money for Nothing ends on a C two octaves above middle C which then does a quick upward glissando about an octave and a fourth. Did the keyboardist map the midi wheel to a perfect 11th to do that glissando? If so it sounds incredibly smooth: great job DX7, and/or early MIDI, and/or Alan Clark!

There's a downside to hypersonic - they are NOT agile especially in terminal guidance so they are primarily/only good for stationary targets. Going so fast carries this cost.

The hypersonic weapon win is when you need a short OODA loop in an engagement - perfect for that and we've see that happen already in Ukraine with them: the attack on Yavoriv - it was over and targets dead before ATC/Air Defense even realized there were incoming. That's a short OODA loop.

A similar effect would occur with HGVs launched from SLBMs off the US coast - it's be over before anyone even raises the first alarm of incoming.
