I suspected something like that. I assumed there was a reason there was "only" 65GB of storage up there, when I can get a half terabyte microSD card for under $70 on PrimeDay. Lots of Moore's Law has happened in the last 10 years...

As a RaspberryPi enthusiast, I'm under no illusions about the reliability of microSD cards, but I wonder whether if they were building that data recorder today, that a huge raid 1 with perhaps 20 or 50 mirrors stored on 512GB SD cards might be able to compete on reliability and cost (including launch weight)?
By this logic we're not supposed to defend anything because one day some people can (and I agree will) destroy it? Your argument argues for the opposite, it makes more sense to defend this now when there is political capacity to defend it. And later when we won't, it'll be banned. But at least there will be political and legal precedent to this so that makes (1) harder for next person to destroy it (2) easier for the next next person to re-create it. Your strategy is by definition doomed to fail.

EDIT: Also RvW was legally dependent on Americans' constitutional right to privacy as per the Fourteenth Amendment. So this issue is already organically tied to the issue of abortion, whether you like it or not (at least with the framework current SCOTUS is attempting to destroy (it cannot be said they already destroyed it fully given many of the precendents Thomas listed still are the law of the land)).

This is underappreciated. Much lamentation has been made of the fact that JWST's current mission length is only ten years (maybe twenty or thirty at best, but hard-limited by on-board coolant), but with the speed of its observations that ten years will be as productive as a century of Hubble time.

> Because people still need to be able to transact with something, which is not a function well-served by cryptocurrencies, most of which have the bulk of trade in them carried on off-chain or via stablecoins that track a fiat currency.

That’s a bit like saying the dollar isn’t a suitable currency because most transactions don’t happen directly through the Federal Reserve. Most people would transact through “layer 2” systems like Lightning, or even paper currency issued by one or more countries but backed by cryptocurrency reserves.

The cryptocurrency bit is to allow mutually distrusting countries to standardize on a single currency, if that’s something that might be valuable.
You need to mellow out.
That's right, REST concepts are largely wasted on modern SPA applications, which are fundamentally RPC-style clients.

Instead, REST should be used in its original context: hypermedia clients (browsers) exchanging hypermedia (HTML) with the server. I have written an alternative front end library that takes this exact approach:

1860-1900 most certainly was not "pretty good" for people living then. Read some. The Long Depression [1] saw nearly 20,000 businesses fail, ten states went bankrupt, unemployment soared, some places saw 25 percent unemployed. Multiple panics destroyed significant assets. The period was so bad that it directly led to creating the Fed because the people wanted the uncertainty and suffering to stop.

> Countries chose inflation because it's less obvious way to tax people

I think you're missing significant understanding about money and inflation.

Explain carefully how inflation taxes people to the benefit of the govt. Your explanation should carefully distinguish between the Fed and the Treasury, the three methods the Fed used to influence the rate, the laws and accounting both use.

I'm pretty sure you have no idea, and are simply making up ghost stories to cover misunderstandings.

So, explain the process. Because I do know in detail how these pieces fit, and nothing like your beliefs occur. So you explain it.

Oh, and by the way, inflation helps nearly anyone with debt such a college loans, car loans, or mortgages, because it lowers effective payments. Given most people have more debt than cash as savings, inflation helps borrowers and costs lenders.

Think about that a bit

This attempt to counter-chastize rings hollow to me.

We all have phones we can use to film things. Yes. They do an ok 1080p, many technically can do 4k but look close at the capture & you'll see it's largely mush. To record, people have to pull put their phones & aim that at things: a specific & noticable event. One that typically comes at very significant battery usage costs.

Now by compare here's a vehicle with multiple sensor devices that cost multiple thousands of dollars a piece. You can jolly well bet these are predominntly always on devices. There's no indicator for when these devices might send the data back to the mothership or not- a true panoptician design; the threat of recordings being sent up is perpetually implied, it's medium-term buffers likely to get uploaded if anything happens or sampled anyways just because. These high end sensor platforms are actively roaming, are driving about, working together to gain a vast top down composite view of the world, something again a couple random instagram feeds provides only the faintest most distant glimmer of.

The power control & hierarchy here is clear as day to me. Fearing uncoordinated masses with low res handheld phones feels ridiculous by compare.

I don't think that's the right mindset to have. One should just learn to appreciate diversity. One shouldn't approach any language with the view that one is about to discover a language that rules them all. Just learn with a view to discover the strengths and weaknesses of whatever language you are dealing with at that moment, as every language must have those.

Back in my first job we had a CD drive but somehow only one music CD, so me and the other guy in that office just kept listening to that one all day.

Now despite access to all the music in the world, I still have per-project playlists. So I might listen to the same ten songs again and again for weeks on end, as starting the soundtrack quickly puts me in the mood to resume work where I last left off.

I've also adopted a mild superstition that it's bad to listen to the soundtrack for a project that failed.

Carbon itself was a concession, if you look at the earlier Rhapsody and OS X Server releases, it was pretty clear that they were planning on using the "Yellow Box" environment (Basically OpenStep) as the primary system, with the "Blue Box" emulation layer as the only way to run Classic software. Then a revolt from developers (apparently especially Adobe and Microsoft) and the reality of how much a Display PostScript license would cost relative to a PC set in, and OS X happened with it's in-house windowing system and Carbon for easy porting of well-behaved Classic software. See http://www.roughlydrafted.com/RD/RDM.Tech.Q1.07/4B800F78-0F7...

Also, early versions of OS X (IIRC though 10.4) were perfectly happy to install and work on UFS, the installer would even help you do so.

From the user end, the problem with running OSX on UFS was that... a bunch of sloppy software broke on case-sensitive volumes. Famously, Adobe's entire suite wouldn't even install on case-sensitive volumes (see https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-case-sensiti... I think it's still unfixed to this day). This is probably also the reason why despite Apple finally getting a modern file system... APFS has and defaults to a case-insensitive mode in opposition to essentially every other modern FS.

Only heads of state are targets of black hat hackers?

I've had mice, squirrels and raccoons in the house. The raccoon had made a little nest in an attic space and gave birth to three kits. It was cold, so I didn't want to evict them, so I let them stay and I put up a camera recording on slo-mo on a VCR. I learned a lot about raccoons. The mother raccoon is a very very caring and devoted mother. She also keeps the nest completely clean. She always left and went outside to do her business. She removed all her kits wastes as well. Eventually, when it got much warmer and she started to chew the batten boards, I did evict her humanely. She had done very little damage to the house and no mess. I was probably lucky to get a good one.

I had a squirrel fall down the fireplace chimney and roam the house while we were on vacation. My friend checking on the house discovered her after she'd been trapped inside for a couple of days. Squirrels poop everywhere they go, so I could tell everywhere she went. She explored the whole house, but spent the most time looking out the ground floor windows. The fireplace ashes on her hands revealed things she touched. There were black marks all over the window cranks, but few marks on the window sashes. It looked like she had tried to operate the window cranks. I appeared she understood that if she could move them the right way, she could open a window and get out, but she had been unable to move them. She found a bit of peanut butter to eat, and she shredded our curtains. Apart from that she did very little damage and the mess was limited. The poops are pretty dry, and she only peed in a couple of specific locations, not everywhere. I did a cleanup before my wife returned home, and as I cleaned up, the things I observed caused me to develop a lot of empathy for the trapped and frustrated creature, who didn't want to be there. As for the mouse, that was an experience I doubt most of you would believe.
Safari has tail-call optimisation.

We don’t have it elsewhere mostly because Google:

1. Agreed to implement it [it’s in ES6]

2. Implemented and shipped it behind a flag

3. Unshipped it.

4. Proposed something else [ https://github.com/tc39/proposal-ptc-syntax ]

Prior to that, Firefox had proposed a carve out for cross-realm calls, but then they didn’t bother implementing anything.

While apple is against Syntactic tail calls, they’re mainly just opposed to versions of it that would remove/unrequire the tail-call optimisation they already do: https://github.com/tc39/ecma262/issues/535

For the version of it that is backwards compatible, they wouldn’t need to do anything other than ignore the syntax. Their main concern is that it "could add confusion with very little benefit."
Virtues are morals live not in the brain - they are not derived by reason - so we're in agreement.

They have simply run out of credit.

That's all well and good - but, again, the spec will be around for decades. Compromises made today to ship things faster means a lot of pain in those years ahead. I pity all the compiler writers who will have to implement relooper again and again.

But instead we'll probably do things like asm.js - that is, bless certain wasm patterns such that advanced VMs would be guaranteed to optimize them. And so everything will be way more complicated than it needs to be. Just like the JS stack today.

> Can't abide hearing the same stuff repeatedly.

It depends.

Sometimes I'm doing "critical listening" and I'll repeat the same song many times carefully examining the interplay between instruments, vocals, effects, rhythms, whatever - and intentionally re listening to it over and over so I can concentrate on one specific interplay each time through.

Sometimes I'm just drowning out next doors power tools of vacuum cleaner, and one song on repeat is just as good as a playlist.

But I grew up in the golden era of albums, and I love to listen to a whole album in the order the artist carefully curated them into. I _can't_ listen to a single song off Dark Side Of The Moon, I need to hear the entire album end to end. (And I will stab anyone who plays the songs out of order - let that be a warning to any Spotify engineers or product managers I ever meet...)
> How likely is it that the depth of the JSON structure would exceed the maximum depth of the stack?

Not that unlikely i'd say, at lest if the stack size is unreasonably small.

For example, on nodejs, JSON.stringify() chokes with a nested array of 10K depth:

> N=10_000; JSON.stringify(JSON.parse("[".repeat(N) + "]".repeat(N)))
Uncaught RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded
at JSON.stringify (<anonymous>)

Curiously, JSON.parse() is OK with arrays of 10M depth (and probably more). A difference of over 3 orders of magnitude between functions that seem pretty symmetrical at first glance.

Imagine that you build some software that lets users nest things —e.g., a circuit designer, a visual programming language, a UI builder, etc— and you wanna save these nested structures as JSON, or process them recursively. Pretty natural fit i'd say. Now, as a user, i'd be pretty upset if my magnum opus of a very complex circuit, or giant visual program, or very busy beast of UI art, starts creashing the program when exceeding a mere 10K elements. My computer has gigabytes of memory! And, presumably, there's a lot still available. But nope, a meager stack can ruin all the fun.

I personally think this is a pretty silly limitation to have on software, especially given today's memory sizes.

In Minnesota there is a vibrant history of adult baseball leagues, but the problem is that if you didn't play in college (or at least high school or American Legion ball) you will probably not be able to compete.
