Abstract: The highly robust and consistent outcomes of embryogenesis and regeneration in standard model systems obscure an important property of life: plasticity under novel circumstances. In this talk we will briefly review some examples of morphogenesis adjusting to perturbations of environment and internal composition, which highlights novel aspects of emergent morphogenetic control and the evolution thereof. We will show how AI-driven reconfiguration of embryonically liberated biological tissue can lead to new organisms that exhibit collective behaviors previously unseen in nature, such as kinematic self-replication. We will conclude by showing how these behaviors do not respect the human-created distinctions between genotype and phenotype, brain and body, and tape and machine.

People crap on async Rust because it's not the most graceful to use, but I think it's kinda genius how they've managed to make it zero-overhead. To the point that even the stack size of green "threads" is known ahead of time.

The only issue I have is that it's tough not to use it. The big HTTP libraries let you opt out, but smaller libraries don't have the resources to do everything twice. I don't know what the solution is, but it would be nice to always be able to chose. It's pretty silly to use async networking in a cli app, for example, but sometimes you have to.
Still irrationally expensive. You need 4 years to break even and then you may make another 20k in 4 years. 8 years full of risk to make a profit of 20k while the platform is going to be 16 years old? Not worth it.
Oh, that's a really cool perspective, I can understand how that would be useful!

> …to be able to carefully reason through what's required for a technical project, and get stakeholders on board.

You don’t really have to do that anymore once you are a program director. There are people under you who do.

You need a lot of experience with how projects are managed and how work packages interact however and I don’t really see how you can get that if you didn’t do a job where you actually had to carefully reason through what’s required before.
Couldn’t disagree more.

In my org, half of the senior staff and executives weren’t even born in America. They were naturalized citizens or on work permits.

Not sure how those folks could be leveraging their social class in America.
Probably not too hard. The root.go file (in the root directory) does all the plumbing, so you should be able to either use OctoSQL as a CLI, or create your own based on that file.
This.

A lot of people, even economists, conflate the freedom of trade with the free movement of capital. They are not the same and not equivalent. I like to point people to this comic [1] that someone made when the TPP was hot news as it accurately describes this in a very accessible way.

Neoliberalism serves the interests of the capital-owning class.

This was true a decade ago but isn't any longer with the advent of .NET Core. Even legacy dinosaurs are figuring out that you can package a .NET Core app as an image and deploy it on OpenShift.
Their example was only a single person cutting salary, so practically meaningless. And I would also argue, in bad faith with the design of proving a point with bad data.

Sounds like someone needs to invent some sort of expansion joint. I assume its a hard engineering problem with significant trade offs.
Yeah, I’m not sure it will work but I like that it’s proactive and unlikely to have any negative effects other than opportunity cost.

If memory serves, he has an interview or a foreword to a book in which he mentions another reason: he didn't want Calvin and Hobbes to continue for years or decades after its natural life. He felt that he had seen this with other strips: they kept going long after they should have stopped, and the evidence was that they were consistently uninteresting. He didn't want Calvin and Hobbes to be like that.

+1 for NoVPN. It's short, sweet, and quickly conveys the benefit. It may also remind people of the frustrations they often face using VPN software, which is often flaky and has a poor UI, so eliminating it could be met with feelings of relief.

Nevertheless, it's always a little unsettling whenever some Internet rando confidently posits that a phrase conveys a certain meaning or emotional reaction to people without any evidence whatsoever. I mean, come on, do a little market research. Do your homework. (The same goes for me!)
Maybe a better comparison point would be Keycloak. I’d also like to know how it compares to it.
Have you tried offering $2,500 per hour? The market exists. There are babies that need babysitting, and people capable of babysitting.

What does not exist is an intersection of the supply and demand curves of people willing and able to pay what people capable of babysitting want to get paid for babysitting.
Assuming that your post is actually a valid indicator of a risk of self-harm and suicide, three years can hardly be described as "in a timely manner", even if it was appropriate to point you to those resources, it makes no sense to do so three years later.

This is a very common engineering challenge, but I don't have experience with the specifics of rails.

Roads (especially near bridges) have expansion joints so that the sections can expand and contract in hotter/colder weather. It looks like slab tracks just have more support and try to fight expansion. This will increase the load required to buckle the tracks, but it will put the entire system (slabs, rails) under more stress.

In other industries this can really affect the entire design of mechanisms. Motor mounts in cars look to allow thermal expansion between the hot engine components and the chassis without letting the whole thing shake apart by being too loose. You can make designs such that they are very close to being statically determinate, meaning there is only one restraint for each of the 6 degrees of freedom, so relative thermal expansion doesn't stress and fatigue adjacent structures. However, that means that adding redundancy in case a single support failure can be quite tricky...

One area where thermal expansion is very challenging is fasteners. I've seen some machines where the joint had to be different materials than the fasteners, and it had to survive a wide temperature range, so the torque on the fastener, including testing it and calibrating the tools, became extremely critical.
How have you made the inquiries?

HN might be able to provide useful feedback based on that information.
As a counterexample: I have good mental image capabilities, but have a terrible episodic memory.
Okay. It seems to me that you've provided a list of differences between tech and music and on this basis say it's a bad analogy. But analogies are by definition a partial resemblance. The point of an analogy is to make a comparison on a relevant dimension. The relevant dimension here is what my GP post tried to explain.

Phrases like "no guarantee" also seem beside the point. Nothing is a guarantee of anything in this context. We're talking about factors that influence things.
The majority of the auto factory jobs that were (e.g. automotive assembly line work) are considered unskilled work; not even semi-skilled; never mind high-skill.
Did you see they restored the 2 Olympic medals for the pentathlon and decathlon to Jim Thorpe just the other day. Long overdue.
The fact that you refuse to engage with, for example, an official report from the US state department DOCUMENTING genocide, does not make calling Russias crimes genocide hyperbole.

That said, I agree that further conversation is useless. At this point it should be obvious to anyone reading the thread that I try to source my facts, and report on what is true whether or not I like said facts. It should also be clear that you fail to engage with either facts or sources which do not agree with your world view. And your world view has been heavily shaped by Russian disinformation campaigns.

My final word is that I condemn you for believing and then wanting to appease a genocidal dictator. While refusing to engage with documented evidence of the many crimes that he is lying about.

Feel free to respond however you like. I'm done with this conversation.

This is exactly what happens, though. You don't stay truly rich without a decent chunk of political influence. So, yeah, police protect the private property of those who support that idea most.

Huh? That isn’t reasonable at all and I don’t think you’re arguing in good faith because of it.
Many manager types are good at faking it, others are genuine hypomaniacs or hyperthymics (see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperthymic_temperament ), and others still are systematically taking stimulants, prescribed or not. And then there are extroverts and introverts.

There is little doubt it is biological, it's just that this aspect of natural biological diversity is poorly studied.

Nature would lend itself to more mutability, if only people decided to drop the pretense that "attitude" is the only differentiator. It is not.

Your arguments make sense, so it appears that continuously-welded rails should be better than the traditional jointed rails.

Nevertheless, when I was young I traveled frequently by train. During some decades, I have never seen problems caused to the train traffic by too high temperatures, on traditional jointed rails.

On the other hand, in the last few years, whenever I happened to travel by train through Germany on continuously-welded rails and the weather was hot, there were train delays due to the rails.

So it seems that there is some disconnection between theory and practice. Maybe the new continuously-welded rails have been designed based on ancient recorded temperature ranges that are no longer valid due to climate changes, as already suggested in the parent article, but in any case something is wrong with the design of modern rails.

In the parent article it is mentioned that changing the stress-free temperature to a higher value is not good enough, because the strength of the rails could be exceeded during cold winters. So it is likely that the rails would have to also be thicker, increasing their cost.

It's you that has a fundamental misunderstanding of thermodynamics. The second law of thermodynamics says that entropy only increases, you cannot move heat without producing more. And it's not insignificant，a typical AC uses 1kWh to move 3kWh.
The way it works (and has always worked if the historical novels are at all accurate) is that you make the money, and then put your kids in the "good schools" and donate a building or two, and their kids (your grandkids) will then be upper class. Part of this is often having enough money so your kids can marry into "upper class but destitute" families, of which there is always a steady supply.
That’s fine, but you’re a using a bad faith interpretation. You just admitted as much.

The point isn’t that you’re wrong. It’s that they aren’t thinking what you’re projecting them to think.
That's what the complexity is.

Some data sources will be expensive and can't be filtered so you want to avoid looking up rows as much as possible (do the filtering using other predicates if possible, do the loopup only if required). Some data sources will support efficient filtering with pushed down predicates.

Ideally when "asking questions" I don't need to worry about it. The optimizer can use the info provided to do something sensible.
So, (precisely speaking) it is increasing the set of network endpoints that are trusted from a LAN to the entire internet.
You’d think they could make a robot to paint the rails but then again, the rails on the things that vehicles are supposed to be riding on!

Perhaps you could make a device that rides on one rail while painting the other one. Flip it around and do the other side when you’ve done the first pass.
Define "use the platform"

Do you know that almost every "share on Facebook" button on a random news article/blog post collects data from you, if you don't have strong privacy protection enabled? That means even if you have never registered a Facebook account, Facebook could gather your page view data and use that to show ads targeting you on another page.

Same thing here.
States where teacher's unions are allowed to collectively bargain have better teacher pay, less teacher shortages, and better average outcomes. To me this sounds like a lot of privilege from someone that doesn't understand how bad schools can get in areas with very little funding or oversight.
Yes. They actually talk about it in the article.

> Everyone pretends that racism in America is just that, when it's actually classism born of racist roots

I am very tired of non-Americans comments about America. We don’t “pretend” that racism is racism, racism is racism in America and attempts to skirt around it with the Marxism-lite “actually everything is classism” are unhelpful.

Yes, Black people have largely been kept in the lower classes from slavery to sharecropping to Jim Crow to now, but even those who managed to become “middle class” financially still found themselves unable to get mortgages, loans, or jobs at the same rate as white people. Just using a Black-sounding name on paper will lower your odds of all of these.

Even the very site we are on now has a less than proportionate (in America) Black audience because the software/computing industry has a less than proportionate Black makeup. This cannot be explained by simple “classism.”

An Ivy League educated, middle class Black man even became president and was still subject to attacks from all classes of white America, not because he was middle class, but because he was Black. This includes lower class white people too, who are some of the most discriminatory against other races in America.

Even the phrase you used “white trash” was originated by Black slaves against white servants, not upper class white people like you claim.

America is not Europe or Asia. The white colonizers to America that arrived, yes, were mostly lower classes in Europe but in the “New” World of Native Americans, that was not the biggest distinguishing factor any longer.
> are not getting paid US salaries

Sure, that was implied. All hardware and software used to build networks is imported though, and is bought for 'hard' currency (and a lot of it is needed to build networks in a country with an extreme climate and such low population density).

> Can you have a connection uptime of 6 months without interruptions

I've been using this provider since 2008 (and switched from ADSL to fiber-optics in 2013). It's been pretty great actually, I believe we had two service interruptions in all that time, roughly half-hour each. I don't remember the exact time since the last one happened some years ago.

No idea about 100% stability across many months of use since I don't host anything at home. This sounds like something you'd want if you were getting remotely operated on.

The router keeps the same IP for months, and I've never had the connection break from under me (besides two occasions mentioned above).

> Does the ISP have excellent global peering

Well, it's definitely not going to be as good as what you have in Europe. I mean, look at our geographical location, it's right in the middle of freaking nowhere. I guess it's pretty similar to what they have in NZ, only they are surrounded by water, and we by a thousand miles of steppe.

Last year, I looked at what they paid in Russia to get similar connection speeds. Prices were significantly lower in Moscow and SPb than in Siberia (roughly $5 for 1 Gbit/s versus $5 for 200 Mbit/s IIRC), which makes sense when you think of it. And we're way further down.

Both up and down speeds to US and EU datacenters are stable and close to 100% advertised.

Right now, ping to HN is at 220 ms. Going by the most direct route possible at the speed of light in vacuum, I get 100 ms to that same datacenter (us-west-2). So it's 2.2 times worse than the unreachable ideal. Don't know how much better it could be if we had direct cabling to the US since it's not going to happen for financial reasons.

We have a couple more providers (who seem to have been allowed to the market to make the main one look like less of a monopolist) that are not as popular. They definitely do oversell bandwidth. You'd be lucky to get 10% of what you had paid for, especially on weekends.

> Is the last mile cabling cost eaten by the ISP

You don't pay anything when signing up for the service.

So no, I think US customers are simply getting shafted for their money.

The point is that it is very flexible. For example I could compute a hash of an input string, run a virus scan on a file or whatever else I wanted.

It used to be that people lived life for the acts of life and a material things generally had a negative connotation. Now for a tremendous amount of people life is almost exclusively about material wealth and even many life experiences have a material quality because if you don't post pictures at certain landmarks did you really even go.
I have to agree that "zero trust" is terrible marketing (alongside "trustless computing" or variations of that). Generally, we think of "trust" as a positive term, and having zero of it seems bad. That's at least the brain-stem reaction I have to this term, and I think no amount of "but but but you see the problem is we trust the wrong things therefore we should have none of it" will fix the perception.

If I'm not mistaken, the point of the term is that you're not just punting to the firewall to protect your network: eggshells are not sufficient to protect eggs. Thus the proposal isn't "zero shell eggs", it's closer to "all shell no egg".

I don't have a good alternative to it, but maybe something like "Continuous Skepticism", "Always Verify", "Pervasive Vigilance", or "Verify Everything" might be terms that evolve in the right direction. I don't think any of these are winners, but at least none of these take a fairly universally positive term (like trust) and negate it without further explanation.

"Zero trust" really feels more like just an eye-popping bullet point in a consultant's slide deck that gets thrown in to make sure the client hasn't totally nodded off by the 10th slide...
