It might be that your ASUS is combining two things into one UI for convenience. Mapping one IPv6 prefix on the WAN to another on the LAN is one thing. Allowing traffic to a particular IP:port to cross from WAN to LAN is another. They're independent, though of course both are needed for the overall high-level task of "allow my LAN server to be reachable to the internet", so it makes sense to have a UI that does both things under the hood.
I'm surprised anyone actually gives a crap about robots.txt.

Both GCP and AWS provide super fast and cheap, but fallible local storage. If running an HA database, the solution is to mitigate disk failures by clustering at the database level. I've never operated scylladb before, but it claims to support high-availability and various consistency levels so the normal way to deal with this problem is to use 3 servers with fast local storage and replace an entire server when the disk fails.
You just need the right AI generated image.
Finally, a software fad that I actually want to support! About time I get one!

SQLite is more than good enough for an awful lot of things. Most of the time that I do see software using MariaDB etc, I think to myself "they didn't need a server model for this, SQLite would have been fine".

The protobuf you linked does not support your claim that Signal uploads your contact lists. You'll note that AccountRecord does not contain a list of ContactRecords other than those pinned (4 max). Indeed the application UX does not either.

I've asked for evidence twice and you have supplied none.

Not that you can't use it. Intro ML books (like courses) are in any case generally too verbose and mathematically unsophisticated to cater to their audience.
The /128 is what your router gets. After that your router would request a delegated prefix to serve to the LAN, which would be a /64 or bigger. Casual internet search says Spectrum supports delegating /56's.
It certainly has some good use cases and is not a toy, but there are some critical SQL features (like say: `last_at < NOW() - INTERVAL '10 minutes'`) that are not easily compatible with SQLite and are with postgres, that would require a lot of code rewrite in case you need to scale upwards. Testing against multiple databases is hard, so migrating to postgres wouldn't be trivial either. Hosting small postgres databases on things like GCP are ~$8 a month... why not just save yourself from future pain?
Ah yes, the "It's still in Beta" defense.

Hehe, I forgot about the pipeline function. I had originally written that for something else and then repurposed it here. It always felt like something that ought to be built in to python.

And I guess I'm kind of grading "easy" on a curve here, because the first build tool I tried for bioinformatics was GNU Make, and it was not up to the task, even when I exploited all the special GNU features to the hilt.
AppImage is basically a fancy zip file. It's still completely up to you to make sure the thing you put in the zip file will actually run on other people's system.

When a local disk fails in an instance, you end up with an empty disk upon live migration. The disk won't disappear, but you'll get IO errors, and then the IO errors will go away once the migration completes but your disk will be empty.
Imo the hardest part is timing - meeting like minded people who are ready and available to start building now.

So if he’s building on past successes and learning from mistakes, more hype, more money. He’s a billionaire after that fiasco.

Will he climb higher after the next one? Andreessen seems to think so. Data collection would make sense, for internal purposes and/or external buyers. But that presumes the need for more than raw hype to make a billion or two.

On the other hand, models said that Japan could never experience an earthquake as bad as the 2011 earthquake right up until 2011 proved them wrong (https://physicstoday.scitation.org/doi/10.1063/PT.3.1361)
And degree matters.
Except that I have to check defaults and configure my home router once and I'm done (for a while at least). If every single device on my network had it's own firewall, each with their own settings, capabilities, and defaults, I'd have to configure and check the defaults for every device on my network.

You could argue that having one edge device running a checked and configured firewall means that you don't have to worry about the firewalls installed on every other device on the network, but anyone who has networking experience will know better. Problems are bound to come up on the internal network if nothing else and troubleshooting issues becomes a lot more complicated!

Also, if we're counting on every IoT product to come with its own embedded firewall you can be sure many of those are going to be so poorly thrown together that they introduce more security problems than they solve. This is a class of products that has earned a horrible reputation in terms of security.
I don't understand how that's moving the goal post. Urbit developed a novel way to phonetically encode larger amounts of entropy than people are used to dealing with in order to build a network where your cryptographic identifier is your namespace and prime identity. You can spin up an urbit ship/planet and securely message anybody on the network using that short identifier. You suggested just using part of somebody's public key as an identifier directly. Urbit basically does that and a whole lot more.

I suspect it would be rather trivial to cut out the phone parts of Signal and have a UI where you paste in the first 8 characters of pubkeys and it matches those. Why not try building it?
That's totally OK... Apple doesn't need to hire you to thrive.
This is a very bad idea which I have also done and am currently in the long process of undoing. I have >800 email addresses on my own domain. What happens if I do not renew the domain name - either by accidentally missing the renewal date or in the extreme example, if I die? At that point anyone can register the domain and can receive (and send) email for all my accounts, very likely leading to the accounts being compromised. Even if I'm dead I still don't want my mortgage or bank accounts being hacked, I want them in the hands of my heirs. So yeah... very bad idea or at the very least, not worth the minor reduction in spam for the risk.

I’ll put this out there as a point that’s serious and I’ve come across a few times as both a founder and freelancer.

No body wants to build your idea for free. For those that are reading this and thinking that finding a cofounder is actually just finding a set of hands you can work with, be buds and create your idea and you can split it 50-50 or whatever. Just stop.

These people don’t exist in the random hallways of the internet. You’re asking for someone to get on your amusement park ride of horror for a multi year commitment, risk it all at great cost on every metric imaginable.

Sorry to be a downer but anyone worth their salt won’t be willing to do that.
Most companies just lease office space. You would think that they would be eager to get out of having to lease these sorts of spaces if their employees are willing to foot the bill of maintaining an office themselves through working from home. Emotion is beating logic here I think. It should come as no surprise that the only people pushing for return to office are the managers against the wishes of many employees. They are the ones who felt slighted and made obsolete when the world showed it could do the same computer work at a desk at home versus one in an office that you are probably burning CO2 to get to. What a disaster for the planet. Visibility was like 50 miles early in the pandemic from the mountaintops in LA county with no one driving and generating dust from their tires. No longer.
It depends if a company’s desire for butts in seats exceeds its money-saving on utilities and rental. That doesn’t apply to Apple, probably because they’re just paying the loans for their new campus, but small companies, or companies that have satellite offices might be saving a bundle by letting their employees wfh. They just have to wade though all the middle-management that loses a lot of its value when there’s no one to lord over.
> we can imagine a black ball could be "a ML model running on a laptop that can tell you how to produce an undetectable ultra-transmissible deadly virus from easily purchased items

I think we’re already past the point where we could have done something about this. In fact, we’ve probably been past that point since humanity was born.

I think it’s probably more valuable if we think about how we’ll deal with it if we do draw something that could be/is a black ball.

That said, so far all evidence points to extreme destruction just being really hard, which leads me to believe that truly black ball technologies may not exist.
OP asked "What are some unpopular opinions here that should not be?"

OP didn't ask for explanations, long or brief.

If you want those, that's what we have scripture for. "Which scripture?!" you may ask. I prefer the New Testament. Nearly any scripture is preferable to the modern materialist quantity-cult--even ones outside of the Abrahamic fold.
It's not perfect, but those factors are largely controlled for because the authors are comparing descriptions of different stars from the same source relative to each other.

That is, Betelgeuse was described in terms that were dissimilar to "red" stars and similar to "yellowish" stars of similar brightness, and those groupings were relatively consistent across multiple different sources.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen put to words the question that runs through everyone’s minds at least once for any HN thread, but you’ve done it.
Today I opened up the Windows Resource Monitor to see why my elderly neighbor's AOL Desktop Gold app was loading so slowly. The problem turned out to be network related, but I was intrigued to see in it's disk activity many reads and writes to a .sqlite file.

I wonder how long AOL's desktop app has been using SQLite - since the early 2000s maybe? If anyone has one of those original AOL disks lying around, it may be interesting to see if the installer unpacks a SQLite DB of some kind.
The disks are physically attached to the host. The VM running on that host moves from one host to another. GCP live-migrates every single VM running on GCP roughly once per week, so live migration is definitely seamless. Standard OSS hypervisors support live migration.

When hardware fails, the instance is migrated to another machine and behaves like the power cord was ripped out. It's possible they go down this path for failed disks too, but it's feasible that it is implemented as the disk magically starting to work again but being empty.

You can read more about GCP live migrations here: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/live-migrati...
Does SQLite still not support remote connections? Without that, it's hard for me to take it seriously for most RDBMS use cases.
If it’s like « any « in TS then it’s very nice to have in very specific situations that warrant a comment and a call out in code review.
Yes! You can use any Identity Provider (IdP) that supports OpenID Connect (OIDC).

I've documented this in https://yolinks.app/docs/getting-started/configuring-an-orga... (scroll down to "Single Sign-On (SSO)"; I'm still trying to figure out a good way for React + React Router and header anchors to play nice together, so apologies for making you scroll). I haven't documented the set up within IdPs like Okta. I've noticed many software vendors have IdP-specific instructions as well, so I may follow suit eventually.

I don't support SAML, but it should be relatively straightforward given that I use Google Identity Provider. I'd be very curious to know if SAML is important to folks.
To be fair, Apple tells you what not to do on social media when you join. They are extremely no none-sense about it too, by the way she said she is an Apple engineer on her TikTok I can only assume she knew this.

Ouch! My SSD from a decade ago is larger than that, and probably, more performant.
Look pal, I've given you all the information you need. It's really all right there. I can lead you to data, but I can't make you think.

If you want to go on believing that someone at Signal has found a way to backup your contacts so that you can recover them when you use a new device that does not in any way involve Signal collecting your contacts and storing that data to push back down to you later be my guest. You believe in magic, and I'll continue to believe their own statements, code, and documentation.
Its emotional thinking to prefer the status quo that you know, not rational thinking imo. Rational logic would suggest not signing any more office leases and letting your employees foot that bill through their own homes, saving the company money with no change in work output.
Are you sure? I’ve been seeing numerous headlines suggesting that you don’t actually feel that way - in fact no one does, and everyone really wants to go back to the office.

Additionally, fabric of society, progress, puppy dogs, and America. Think of the children (during your commute.)

We’re in this cubicle together. (Management thought it would cut costs.)
This is the obvious conclusion to draw. I think it's a very real question whether what they get from going deep on ads will make up for the hit to their feel-good "we care about your privacy" reputation they've spent so much time cultivating (and, honestly, the renewed focus on whether they really do have too much market power).
Yes, I did. I absolutely went to the assumptions a VC would make, about sector specific investing. Overtly. I am sure there are black entrepreneurs doing market wide stuff, and if they're missing VC money because of systemic racism thats a huge bummer. And the standout example I could think of was media/entertainment because that was where a specific cohort of black entrepreneurs made a huge leap.

It's actually very common in smaller business ventures for this kind of 'I leverage my community' to be a thing. They don't talk about the "pink dollar" for nothing.

Quite a large problem with white male product is in fact, that it doesn't have general appeal. Or that it's mal-targeted. Classic examples? Every google product of significance is released in the US market first, despite the market size in India being 5x by order of magnitude. You can do a bunch of "oh, but they understand the US legals better" but no: It's lazy investing.

The best investing is colourblind, unless there's a specific drive, which goes to 'leverage my community' btw.
I’m willing to bet that it won’t fix the productivity crisis. The trouble (at least with Google and Facebook) is a matter of aimlessness. They don’t know what to do, and they thought throwing engineers at the problem would solve it.
SQLite is an embedded database so you wouldn’t really want that. Postgres is fine for database servers, SQLite is for program-embedded local databases.

He wanted to know if there is actual data about people choosing one device over another based on keyboard effects. I admit I am curious as well, distracting or not is subjective after all, and based on the flashing RGB keyboards out there I am not doubting that you will have some interested users.

There have been a number of conferences I've missed this year because they returned to in person. Sorry, I'm in it for a few talks, I'm not uprooting my week to fly to Portland and hunt for accommodations. A big slap in the face when they don't even offer recorded sessions online. Like, if the conference is about sharing knowledge with the world, don't you want to let the world access that knowledge?
Last time I went to work in the office I was inundated with chatter, interruption, and distraction. People walked by and said hi and then messaged me from their desks anyway. I had to leave early because there were actually things things that needed to be done. Maybe Apple has this problem sorted (and strangely I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that they have a no unapproved talking rule implemented) but the simple fact is that efficient and productive work will win in the end, and that isn’t necessarily defined by commuting to a building and being trapped there between certain hours.
SQLite is an embedded database, so there's no "still". It's a completely different kind of system from a traditional networked database.

It's like asking if Python still doesn't support running without a garbage collector.
They need to put more work into the client instead of wasting engineering hours on the backend. Literally the biggest bottleneck that makes the computer feel like it was from decades ago is the nonsensical piece of crap that is the client. Build an actual UI that doesn’t misuse web technologies in the first place rather than talk about supercharging anything.
Apple also offer financing on their laptops as well?

Phone's are not heavily discounted with 2 year contracts, definitely not here in Australia anyway. Carriers are going down the route of customers paying the standard device repayment per month (equalling the RRP). The days of device subsidies by taking a plan are fading.

Plans from mobile carriers are becoming suped up pre-paid plans with a device payment tacked on.

A laptop camera angled on the whiteboard or whatever scrap of paper the person has on hand? Thats what we've used and its fine for showing drawings in zoom meetings. Making people commute to watch someone draw on a whiteboard seems wasteful.
Not really, a phone isn't assigned a random number from a pool every time you turn it on or reconnect to a tower, then given to other users ad hoc.

A static IP maybe, except the IP is portable to a new AS if/when you want to move to a new provider. It's even susceptible to a false BGP route =)

E-Bikes. The EV that almost nobody talks about yet brings multitude of benefits (virtually no congestion, less infrastructure/energy/environmental footprint compared to cars, health benefits, etc., all while being able to meet the majority of daily transport needs) if cities make way for them. The one especially absent from the discussion are cargo bikes.
