The vast majority of my spam comes from the bad old days of desktop pc viruses and people using outlook express (say 15+ years ago).

Back then, my college required us to forward our university email to a personal account. That's fine as our personal addresses were hidden and not public.

What was not fine was one day the IT department changed everyone's public email address to their private address. They also changed mailing lists from BCC to CC so that you got to see everyone's email who received the email.

A few hours later after these changes, the spam started rolling in. At first it was a moderate amount of spam, a few messages a day, but it quickly increased. At one point it was up to 200-300 spam messages a day and stayed that way for several years. In any given month my gmail spam count sat between 3,000 to 6,000.

Over the past 10 years, as botnets have been taken down, those numbers have come down an order of magnitude. I still get between 20 - 30 spam messages a day on that account.
It's sickening. These people don't care about improving people's living conditions. They care about extracting more and more and more money by exploiting a crisis that they have had a hand in creating.
So would using Neon negate the need for something like Citus for scaling out a postgres database?
> less portable

Makefiles being portable is an illusion. Make itself has multiple flavors. Running standard POSIX utilities like `find` or `sed` will have different outputs depending on if you're on macOS, or regular Linux. There are so many implicit dependencies that aren't codified.

It's true that Makefiles are often portable. I'm always very happy when a GitHub repo has a Makefile and I can do something like `make install` to have a binary on my system. This is because my system happens to have the required compilers and libraries, but there have also been plenty of times where I needed to install something without it being clear.
I'd probably suggest any book I like in which case I wouldn't be as eager to get rid of it. I think you might have me mixed up with another user because I don't have a large library and didn't suggest I did.
You can use ZFS as a root file system, and it actually has such a switch (called "utf8only").
Cost disease is real, and residential solar is an ideal place for it to fester.

> Salesmen are over-paid, and the more they inflate the price the more they are paid.

> The companies that over-charge the most have the most ability to grow and advertise.

> Google Search will put whoever pays the most for the ad (which will probably be who is over-charging the most) at the top of the search results.

> Approximately no homeowners understand the cost structure of solar, once again making it easier to over-charge.
The members of the anti-nuclear movement didn't intend to advocate for fossil fuels, but in practice that's exactly what they did. When the choice is between a nuclear plant and a coal plant, being anti nuclear is being pro coal. That's why many organizations opposing nuclear power received substantial donations from the fossil fuel industry - because they wanted their opponents to fight amongst themselves.
Everyone wants the lights and heat to stay on. If that isn't coming from nuclear, it has to come from somewhere, and for the first several decades, it couldn't come from solar and wind.

Coal was the inevitable base load power source given a lack of alternatives. If you focus on limiting nuclear with far greater zeal than coal, this is the result.

See: perfect is the enemy of good.
Power at the source has never been as cheap as solar, and has always consumed extra operating expense to generate. Solar does not cost more each day it produces; you put up more panels and you get more power, day after day.
That's because a lot of native English speakers (not all though) do not know how to pronounce rolling R's. You won't solve that on a paper through textbook. "red" is the best the textbook can do, I'd think.
Yes, this effort started years ago and was ramped up significantly in recent months.
I grew up in this area too and have noticed that both the Flint and the Hooch have both developed a smell over time. Each having their own distinctive smell, but both not smelling like what I knew to be a healthy river bed from growing up.

This despite the conservation efforts on particularly the Hooch by high society Atlanta money. You don't have to go very far - Chattahoochee Hills will do - just to look at the river and see and smell how terrible it is. The Chattahoochee National Recreation Center is very nice, but it's far enough upstream before it goes through the industrial areas of south Cobb/Fulton so it hasn't developed "that smell".

The Flint is no better. By the time you get to Albany it's almost putrid. The local riverfront society there has Turtle Grove Park, which in the small handful of times I've been was largely abandoned and taken over by homeless and junkies. Not sure which situation caused which, but the locals don't go there. Most of it comes from ag pollutants - pesticides, fertilizers, etc. There used to be a time where you could stand on the Broad Street bridge, drop a hook into the water with a chicken liver on it and pull up a mudcat that would feed an entire family. There's no way I'd eat anything out of that river - not any more.

I would consider that well worth the price for not having to deal with human waste transport issues! And that's because I have actually done that work myself a few times.

But yes, I know not all plumbing issues are waste related.
Apparently his history of self-dealing and messianic-hyperbole is valuable to them.
Isn't it better to leave them exposed and make it easier for security researchers who genuinely want to test the chip? Someone interested in and capable of developing and using/selling an exploit won't be deterred by needing a special cable to get a UART console, whereas a security researcher might appreciate the simpler access.

So long as it doesn't weaken the actual security model, companies should make their products as easy to analyze as possible imo.
That's what he said also
Probably true, but as a balance for this there are about 100 billion galaxies in the visible universe each with about a hundred billion stars, each with a chance to build up the right conditions for live.

That's 10^22 opportunities to get it right. We can't possibly be alone.
> But that would be in fact trivially simple: Just rewrite the world in some new kind of data-flow language (which needs to get invented first, of course).

I hope that was sarcasm. But if not: No, rewriting the world is not trivially simple. Not remotely.
It's a different approach, planetscale and Citus are sharding that is intended to be mostly transparent. It's not 100% transparent, but both get pretty close.

Neon is more of an aurora approach detaching storage from the compute, you could scale up to more replicas and it could enable other functionality, though Postgres already can handle a pretty high replica count so you can scale out reads that way.
OTOH, worker shortage means that employees have greater leverage. Better have someone work part-time for you than for a different employer.
Employers don't need CYA as much, they can afford lawyers and write the internal policies.
Lot of people dunking on Neumann here. But the space is very interesting and certainly there is a market need.

No one seems to understand that Neumann built a massively successful company, because they watch the documentaries and think he’s a scumbag for failing to deliver an IPO.

It clearly understands at least basic Spanish. Not sure how it'd handle more complex phrases or other, more obscure languages.
> My impression was that constant growth is the normal state of nature, not a malady

I did not write that.

"In nature, unimpeded, continual growth is typically a malady. Ecosystems, species, and even individual biological units at most experience a growth spurt to bring the system to a viable state for steady-state continuity."

I wrote that.
It's definitely not part time, if anything I'm seeing people work more and more and more.

Its nice to have your own panels, but at a high level its more efficient for a utility to have a solar farm connected to the grid and you just buy spot rates.
Or, we could hire children to pedal stationary bicycles attached to generators.

John Maynard Keynes predicted in the 30s that the combination of extension of industrial production, healthcare, and education/family planning would result in cutting work hours in half and dramatically expanding leisure.

This isn't the fall of society, it's indicative of society advancing. People not working a job doesn't mean they're not working, it means they're putting energies towards things that don't earn them a wage. If you put your time into gardening that's still work, it's just on your own initiative instead of an employers'.
I spoke to a Freedom Solar rep in the US and they shared solar install costs were going down and now they can be as expensive as your current bill (bill swap). Bummer, what should be a continued downtrend cost curve is going up due to install costs increasing because the alternative is increasing regardless.
Very useful, informative and timely! I'm moving into a different house soon, and this has given me the motivation and opportunity to update my outdated consumer modem/router/wifi hardware. I'm still living in the past with 802.11n! At my old home, I personally ran ethernet to each room, but I'm older now and the thought of crawling around in a dusty crawlspace drilling holes and running cords no longer appeals to me like it used to. I'm almost ready to swallow my pride and accept the heresy that WiFi might be good enough, now that we are in the world of 802.11ax. I also like OP's choice to separate their router/switching hardware from their AP hardware. Might go down that route too.
One of my kids is a nuclear physicist and finds the German situation funny.

There's work and work. I don't like being idle. Many people enjoy sitting around sipping drinks. I'd rather climb hills, create stuff and fix houses. My problem with work is the toxic ingredients:

- bad management

- no leadership

- stupid sociopolitical games

- therefore too much fakeness (toxic diplomacy)

- not enough perfectionism

- side effects of obligations (being paid means you are responsible, means you have to make something happen even if you have no clue what or how)
Isn't the problem here the wireless/laser delivery? How much could you transfer?

Also your design sounds suspiciously like a GDI Ion Canon from Command and Conquer[0]. Imagine having dual-use concerns like we do with nuclear power.

Another way to look at it is that BT is such a successful technology that it lowered the barrier to entry for a lot of devices that would simply not exist was it not for BT. It means that with any technology we would have the same problems, lots of cheaply made devices with half ass implementation.
Honest question: why are there so may Airbnbs? What's the advantage over traditional hotels / hostels? Are the prices significantly lower?
I have been doing the same thing, for about the same amount of time.

The only "actual" spam I ever get are for email addresses where the marketplace has shared my email address with the seller. Ebay, especially. I have to rotate my ebay email address periodically and block the old one in order to keep the spam down to a reasonable level.

However, I still use custom email addresses when signing up with various companies/services because the trend over the last five years has been for every company (large and small) to automatically subscribe you to their asinine daily newsletters and other marketing crap even when you specifically opted-out on signup. Yes, the emails themselves _usually_ have unsubscribe links, but those only have a 50% success rate in my experience. And this is from otherwise reputable companies. Easiest to just block the whole email address and move on with my day.
Are you sure the problem is Apple and not the device on the other side?
I don't run a tinpot site but I am the sole developer managing a couple web servers and services for my company. Our db failure works much like you described. Maybe a .5ms added latency if that regardless of physical location more like .1ms from our metrics.

Every quarter we test it, and without fail, it has worked. So I added maybe a couple hours of research and two minutes of additional configurations during set up for reliably fast failover. Seems pretty no brainer to me.

When we moved to a managed instance with our cloud provider it took even less time to set up failover, maybe 30 seconds.

With the numerous options for cloud offerings these days I see no reason to not have a failover set up whether you are a massive corporation or a small business.
A decent portion of my work is fixing what those bad contractors do. It can be frustrating sometimes.
I think there has always been "lonely, single" men (and women) just that social media, the internet, dating apps - amplifies everything.

I think this article is itself evidence of this. Of course DM know exactly what they're doing.

Thanks, I inserted two spaces before the text but it didn’t format all the code, just the first line, maybe because I’m on mobile?
I support medically assisted death, but there are legitimate issues that should be discussed and it really doesn't get much attention in Canada. For example, beginning in 2023, those suffering from mental illness alone will be eligible for medically assisted death. I think this raises serious issues of equity in Canada for the physically and mentally disabled. Making no meaningful changes to the health care system to better support these people, but instead offering medically assisted death, does not seem very compassionate at all.
Not sure how valid my case is, but in March Namecheap gave me (and thousands other Russian-based clients) a week to migrate before they ban me. The fact that I relocated to another country did not matter.

It's been discussed here at HN too:

Even if I was affected, I'm not sure I'd want to continue relationship with them. Anyway, user of name.com now, so far so good.

(P.S. Might need to say that I support Ukraine in this horrible conflict, I just happen to hold a Russian passport)
Maybe dependent on locale, but country clubs never really went anywhere. They tend to be more of an invaluable networking tool with more traditional professions vs tech, but my lawyer friends consider country club memberships to be more or less an essential part of doing business.
I have a limited experience using NodeJs. My first interaction with Node was unpleasant. The whole npm world seemed very insecure and very wide wide west like, thinking back I can't remember why I felt that now.
I know the article said some would like to get away from the npm. For those who still would like to use npm with Deno, I would love to know why. (I'm genuinely curious, not looking to start a flame war)
The population of the US has nearly tripled since then and the GDP has grown almost 2000%; more than 1500% if looking at real GDP [1]. There should be far more wealth equality now but there isn’t.

What’s your plan for all of the books?

After a relative died, I was in their house while it was being cleaned up. They had a huge library of books, but a lot of them were unreadable because of mold/mildew and other issues (not just the typical lovely old book smell). It was such a pity.
Same with USB consortium. Gotta pay like $10k to get a USB vendor ID. What the fuck were these people thinking to rally up behind this draconian standard? There is a limit to how many vendors they can have, iirc 10k.

But for all the issues with it, usb seems to work on devices without Bluetooth-like issues.

Standards should be open and free for common public and only have to pay once you reach certain company size. Things like ISO standards aren’t free.
To me, the biggest problem with the sentence is "lock, stock, and barrel," which won't be understandable to a number of non-native speakers.

I don't know who the target audience is, but not having non-native speakers in mind seems like a pretty big oversight to me.

Mainland Asia is, of course, pretty bad as well.
I think this is a natural tendency to get a large bill and want it to be somebody else’s fault. The two cost drivers mentioned are S3 access logs and VPC flow logs. S3 access logs are required by most security standards and are the only way to get that feature: if you need it, you’re going to be setting those up in whatever cloud security tool you pick or build. This is also odd with the request to only monitor some buckets - not enabling logging is exactly how you’re intended to do that.

VPC flow logs are odd, too: you actually don’t need to enable them for Guard Duty - one of its selling points is that you can globally enable it without the possibility of one of your organization’s accounts having it disabled due to accident or malice – but again, if your security policy requires this there’s no shortcut for any tool: you can get figures quickly before you run through the free tier and use those for your budgets.

The DNS logging points are handled by separate products: if you want those features, check out the Route 53 resolver logging and firewall docs:

You know, I think if you look in the home automation space you'll see a lot of interesting protocols in the works. Zigbee, Z-Wave, Thread, and Matter. I think people are working on this problem for the IOT space. Bluetooth is really a strong easy to support protocol and BLE is also an amazing feat when it comes to battery life. Terribly boring to reverse engineer though. I think you also see it more because phones support it by default.

I think a lot of the time it can be devices that implement the protocols poorly because I share your pain with my airpods max. However, I have a pair of a bluetooth headphones that have been amazing for 5 years.

Asia::NA HVAC is kind of apples::oranges, right? Labor costs are different, home-use devices are different, etc.

On the other hand, how much of the purchase experience is driven by the consumer rather than the producer? HVAC is high capital and labor, low distribution volume. Why would a department store (if people still go to such things) devote space to it? Unlike various appliances (see discussion yesterday about decreases in quality driving increased purchase volume [0]), an HVAC is like roofing. Except for the thermostat and port covers everything is hidden and not part of a consumer aesthetic/emotional experience.

Serious question, what would be your hourly rate to do the work yourself?
I mean, the systems described in the TAotMOP, and CLOS, are early implementations of multiple dispatch, which is the core paradigm of the Julia language.

Julia doesn't go quite as far as implementing a MOP. It doesn't allow for the arbitrary modification of the semantics of evaluation in the language itself, but I'll bet it'd be pretty easy to write a MOP on top of the base language.

I think the ideas in the MOP are exactly those that you've identified in the first sentence. You can draw lines that allow you compare the object implementations of particular programming languages. This isn't so useful when you're just working in a single language, but in something like CL or Scheme (or Racket more specifically) where a major design strategy is to design a DSL that suits your problem, having a MOP really lets you tailor that DSL to the problem in ways you might have a hard time doing otherwise.

For example, I once wrote a library for a computing in particular area of mathematics, but I also wanted to see some symbolic equations. I just changed the basic evaluation semantics of my numeric operators to operate on symbols as well as numbers and to run some simplification logic and boom. I had a rough view of the equations that were actually being used to compute that I could use to debug or tidy up and write down.
