You can price based on eng time saved, but the rejoinder will be that the devs use test time to answer emails, respond in slack/jira, etc. And to some extent that's probably true.

I do have some very strong advice on how not to charge: (1) do not charge based on your costs (customers won't care), and (2) do not charge based on fine-grained usage. The latter is important because if a VPE signs a contract for $3k/mo, he/she doesn't want to sit there worrying that devs run a couple extra tests or add a few tests, etc, and boom: all of a sudden the VPE is going to the cfo to explain $10k in overage charges.

So: price in broad tiers, and price based on value. If you save hundreds of eng hours/mo, charge for the first 20 hours saved. At $150 per, that's $3k/mo. Multiply by 5 to have a functional company (you can't do sales for under $10k; every successful sale -- which will be 20% if you're very good and lucky -- must pay for all failed sales, all marketing, all dev, etc. Oh, and you're doing sales.) So $15k/mo. That's within the approval authority for a vpe with 50 reports.

And accept that bigger companies don't worry about $2k-$3k/mo. So maybe your target should also be smaller shops that can't accept the infra overhead to build this out, but will buy a cheap solution that saves their 1-4 devs a ton of time. Dunno.

While I believe this is the most safe option right now - some candidate dumping grounds have failed spectacularly (the Asse), this of course only works as long we are vigilant and also pay the upkeep for storage locations for many millenia. Both from environmental and safety concerns.
It's pretty much the Big Bang but not quite. The Big Bang theory claims more than that: it claims that our universe started from nothing or from a single point.
It needs some fancy new physics to explain our current universe from that: e.g. hyper inflation.

There are some alternatives to the Big Bang theory, e.g. the Big Bounce. This also claims the existence of a thick hot early state, but a bit more than a single point.
This theory also explains cosmic background radiation.
It'd not fully solve your issue, but have you ever seen https://github.com/py2many/py2many ?
From Washington Post,

Scientists have speculated that factors beyond deliberate dumping could be at play. The mercury could have settled in the river’s sediment because of past pollution, before being stirred up by recent dredging. Europe’s historic heat wave this summer could also be to blame. The continent is facing what is potentially its worst drought in 500 years; low water levels and high temperatures could be choking off oxygen supplies to the river’s aquatic life and worsening existing pollution.

100/day is not reasonable.

If I'm understanding OP correctly then at that level this tool would be saving the customer's engineers 14 minutes of disruptive downtime 100 times per day. If that's correct then $100/day may indeed be unreasonable, but because it's way too low.

I doubt the useful target market for a tool like this is in the $20/month or even $100/month category. What does a series A/B company that runs 100 slow rounds of integration testing per day spend on its cloud hosting every month? That's obviously going to be a much bigger number than they'd pay for a service like this alone but it will give you some idea of the magnitude of numbers that are reasonable to discuss. How much does running those tests slowly cost them not only in direct developer salary but also in lost productivity because of the slow feedback, reduced developer satisfaction leading to people being demotivated or even leaving if it gets too frustrating, etc? What is the extra risk to them of not having new projects ready fast enough to add serious value before the next funding round?

Their math is suspect.

HDDs fail far more often. They probably have half the lifespan of ssds or worse (depending on configuration and workload). I’ve deployed ssds to replace thousands of hdds (in a high throughput production fleet) and I can assure you I swapped (and crushed) hundreds of failed hdds but only a small handful of ssds.
They need to multiply the HDD environmental impact by at least two.
Absolutely, but the research to determine these things is slow and expensive. We still don't have a clear picture around fertility after decades of study, and that's just one example. Banning things until we have conclusive evidence they're 100% safe isn't feasible, that's my only point.

And just to be clear I'm not the least bit in the laissez-faire camp of "allow anything and let the market decide what's safe" either. Regulation is critical, but it has limits and we (as in taxpayer-funded research facilities etc.) should be regularly reexamining whether the benefits outweigh the downsides for all industrially produced chemical substances.

> What’s stopping a hedge fund from buying up a /12 block and renting it out?

These marketplaces are open to all and operate with the knowledge and blessing of the RIR's. However, the recipient does still need to justify the allocation they are buying just like when RIR's were handing out addresses directly.

While anyone with existing IP allocations are allowed to lease them out to anyone, even customers you are not directly providing connectivity to, IP's leased out to non-connected customers do not count towards justification for new allocations/transfers. This is different from Amazon or an ISP leasing IP's to their directly connected customers, which do qualify as justification towards further allocation/transfer justifications.

So a transfer would be denied by the RIR unless the recipient claimed they were going to directly use the /12 to provide internet service to themselves or customers. If they lied on the RIR application that would constitute fraud, which is one of the very few reasons RIR's will actively go and revoke a registration for. RIR's are aware that businesses and use cases can change over time and they explicitly do not revoke for simply not needing addresses anymore, to encourage a liquid and efficient resale market. So the question comes down to whether the application was in good faith at the time it was made. RIR's know what's up and it would be very unlikely for a hedge fund to pull this off without actually investing significant capital and effort to deploy an operational network that would justify a /12.

There have been proposals in ARIN to explicitly allow the leasing use case to count towards future justifications, or even for original allocations/transfers but these proposals have not gone anywhere.

> 100% fine seems a bit premature.

I don't necessarily agree with the "corporate death penalty" (for the
same reasons I don't sanction individual death penalty - that
organisations like individuals are not necessarily coherent and
unified systems with clear intent and culpability) It's potentially a
vast destruction of wealth unrelated to the crime.

BUT: It's a good example of radical action that's needed right
now, so that's why I put it out there. The one thing that I
vehemently disagree with you about is that it's in any way
"premature". We are in the last seconds before midnight, and we ought
to have the will put anything remotely effective on the table,
before the crazies do, because they will soon have the will, the
means, and the moral justification to go way beyond mere "corporate
death penalties".

I agree it's a bit smug, but I can see an argument why something like that (not familiar with Objective-S itself in anyway) might be considered more general purpose—though it's a bit of a stretch still imo:

To start, I think DSLs for algorithms is a bit off; it's more like DSLs for manual memory management. But I think the significant thing is that those languages are closer to a natural way of speaking about the "execution environment" of a computer vs that of human thought, which is essentially the gap or spectrum which programming languages attempt to span.

And it makes a certain kind of sense to talk about generality of languages in terms of the set of human thoughts which they are effectively applicable to realizing. But this is very much against intuition when speaking of the generality of abstract structures since there are common, specific meanings in connection within them, and in computing that's typically what's meant. But, if you do look at it in the other sense, something higher level is going to have higher generality than something lower level.

Just playing devil's advocate 'cause I was curious where they might be coming from with it (because it sounds like such nonsense at first).
Tock is probably closer to a true RTOS in the sense that tasks have stacks. Maybe also hubris. RTIC, embassy, and probably a few others do ISR preemptive task scheduling and synchronization. This is super cool and probably enough for most people. Until you need time slicing probably. Threads have pros and cons like anything else, the biggest cons tend to be…

Stack sizing is hard.
Stack swapping kills caches.
Stack overflows can be very infrequent and hard to debug.
Thread priority doesnt always do what you think.
Even with threads not every RTOS does time slicing.

So right is there a complete network/usb/ble stack in rust today? Not that I’ve seen. So I can understand needing those and thinking maybe it’s not quite there. I do think though that some really interesting and cool ideas on scheduling, device Hal’s, and state machinery has been pretty well explored at this point. It’s still young but evolving and maturing quickly.
They have more "freedom" than renters, right? They can pack up and head somewhere else whenever they want (as they're not bound by a lease), and they have absolutely zero responsibilities to anyone other than to obey the law.

Interesting point you bring up on the "disorder" label. I usually tell people that are newly diagnosed and freaked out about it that the label in itself is insignificant. It's only a "disorder" if it's disrupting your life in a negative way.

I have delusions, "magical thoughts", the occasional paranoia, and I prefer being alone. 95% of the time though those things don't cause any disruptions to my otherwise normal life. I have a wife, kids, and work at a FAANG without issue. I've had this "disorder" for over 20 years now and I only took anti-psychotics for maybe 3 months in the beginning. I'm on low-dose (100mg) Welbutrin to manage ADHD and minor depression, that's it. All that said, I've had a pretty successful and fairly normal life, so fixating on the "disorder" part of things is pretty much pointless. Saying I'm schizotypal is more about explaining to people that I think differently and observe my environment differently.
Yes and no, depending on what you are learning.

I'm 50, and finding it easier than ever to learn. (Mostly.) For most new topics, and in particular new tech skills, there is some similarity to something I've learned before. I just need to adapt my perspective and learn some new details.

Sometimes I end up wanting to learn something truly new that does not match any prior knowledge. That can be hard. And I can sometimes feel like I don't want to bother. But such a scenario is the exception.
Is it that shocking that I would hold consistent views over time? I have some experience in this area that would be very difficult to dislodge.

I have lived off the power, sewage, phone, and internet grid for 20 years. I have built cheap homesteads and expensive ones. I have spent days foraging pinion nuts and weeks bowhunting deer.

I like to think I have some sense of the luxuries afforded by modern living, and what it is like to go without them.

>Really the point I'm making isn't specific to the New World, it was common all over the world for people to build their own houses. In economic terms it wasn't very expensive to build a new dwelling.

My specific point is that it still isn't, if you are willing to put up with the quality of lodgings non-industrialized people and settlers had. You can buy a wooded plot of land and build a log cabin for free. You can buy a steel shed that Native Peoples would have marveled at for a ~$1k.

>A lot of places won't let you build and live in an igloo or adobe building today.

Not in down town SF or most urban centers. If you leave these behind, nobody is going hunt you down and arrest you for living off-grid in a backcountry hovel. People actually do this!

>I promise I'm not fantasizing about magic elves. :) However, it's clear that Native American lifestyles were preferable to European-American lifestyles

I think you are fantasizing about elves. There is a lot positive to be said about native lifestyles, and negative to be said about industrialized lifestyles. However, I think most of them boil down to cultural issues and materialism, not the fact that Indians had somehow a superior material wellbeing.

Even the homeless have many superior luxuries to natives. What they lack is in a different category entirely.
Yes, but that is unrelated to the argument that is being made; that Germany's dependence on Russian gas is because they are quitting nuclear. France who went largely "all-in" on nuclear is using the same percentage of gas, they just get it from somewhere else. You can't make an argument pro or contra nuclear from this, this is the politics of where to get the gas from (and I agree getting it from Russia was a mistake). Note also, Germany gets about 32% of its gas from Russia (Norway is second with 20%), so it's not _that_ different to France (essentially the two main suppliers are reversed between the two countries).

The perspective presented re: schizophrenia is awful too.

The author appears to be very ignorant of the last 20? 30? years of research in both schizophrenia and DID. I can tell just at a glance both by having professional experience in those areas, and by having to deal with both disorders of them every day (my life partner has both DID and schizophrenia).

Making this sort of publications without actually acquainting with the state of the art is dangerous, reckless, and frankly just plain insulting.

On top of that it is not completely unrelated either, as it is imo globally the second most prominent example of government miscalculation/cover up, the lack of accountability which followed it, etc.

Cast iron's real strength is the huge amount thermal mass and the relatively low rate of heat transmission. You preheat it, throw whatever you're cooking in it and the residual heat alone will brown it perfectly, even a huge slab of meat. It holds tons of energy and releases it relatively slowly. Steel pans will sometimes have all the heat sucked out of them before you're done searing (lower thermal mass, higher transmission) and it doesn't come out right, especially if you have a low output stovetop because it can't keep up with the cooking and maintain proper temperature.

Cast iron is kind of the opposite of a wok, which is made so you get about as close as you can to cooking with the flame and no residual heat from the cooking vessel. Note that woks are designed to be cooked on crazy output stoves that you don't really see in Western homes. This allows you to sear with much more control of the thermal transmission at the cost of a blazing hot kitchen and a hefty gas bill.

What makes you think, Germany doesn't have enough electricity? Actually quite the contrary, we produced an additonal 20 TWh to fill in for the gaps left by the French nuclear plants not delivering. (And a lot of other plants in Europe are not running on full power due to lack of cooling water)

P.S. parent was right in doubting the claim, as a parallel connection from a client on a regular desktop refreshes at 30 HZ regardless of the size of the update.

The explanation is that I take end-to-end network measurements (from request of update to a full buffer of pixel bytes). That delay might be due to the slow processor on device, or an inefficiency in the networking code in my application.
> Pointing out the deficiencies of intermittent sources isn't ignoring the externalities of fossil fuels.

Oh, but it is. It is such a common trope, always trotted out as a reason to keep using coal or natural gas. Often it is paired with appeals to nuclear power which isn't being built, leaving us with fossil fuel energy while we wait for something to not happen.

> So just skip the intermittent sources.

Let's say we spend $100B on new power generation over the next 10 years: $50B for nuclear and $50B for wind+storage. Which do you think will produce more watt-hours during this 10 year period? Which will reduce dependence on fossil fuels more? We both know the answer to this so consider it rhetorical.

Arguments against renewables are arguments for the status quo, which includes some imagined ideal that won't happen.
Probably not but it's speculation at the moment. Maybe support for open source firmware versions allowing the user to switch should they need to. In terms of drivers these could be opened but that'd require a huge amount of change from chip manufacturers.
