If someone had the technology to make a drone able to dive 3.7km to the bottom of the ocean, had enough strength to bring back a rock and then propel itself 40m above the surface and keep that small, your scenario would be the least of my worry.

Anyway, if you are in position to bring something close to a carrier from underwater, an heavy torpedo will do the job for a lot less money that your swarm.

Years ago I saw a nice talk by a leading engineer doing MEMS chips. He compellingly spoke of brownian motion... with visceral hate - "Brownian motion is the devil. The Devil." I wondered if teaching science might someday use such clips - for every phenomena, find someone who deeply cares about it, positive or negatively.

> What practices would lead to tools for thought as transformative as Hindu-Arabic numerals? [...] To be successful, you need an insight-through-making loop to be operating at full throttle, combining the best of deep research culture with the best of Silicon Valley product culture.

Wouldn't that be nice. It regrettably seems something we are culturally and institutionally incapable of.

> [memory as educational bottleneck]

Consider an educator from a system with an emphasis on memorize-and-regurgitate call-and-response "learning", even greater than our own, who suggests memory is a bottleneck to transformative outcomes. One might push back by saying "students memorizing this dreck isn't the problem". Now consider our own system, with chemistry education research characterizing chem ed content using adjectives like "incoherent", physics education so narrowly focused and yet still struggling with outcomes, and biology education struggling even less successfully. One might suggest memorization isn't where this system is bottlenecked.
My web server path has been Apache -> (Varnish) -> Nginx -> Caddy. This outside programming language specific servers like Waitress or Express.js.

I love the fact that Caddy is a single binary I can run for simple use cases without configuration file. Plus the built-in Let’s Encrypt support. Nginx is definitely on defence here unless you need “web scale” servers.

The Ethernet expansion card uses a Realtek 2.5Gb/s controller with a USB-C connection to the laptop.

This is a fairly new controller that may not have a FreeBSD driver yet.
Still not in line with what is required. An aging population which is also living longer couple with poor staff retention and management has left it in a much worse state that 12 years ago.
A right from one perspective is a constraint from another.

Land value tax means you don’t pay any extra tax for developing your property, but you do pay extra tax if the neighborhoods get more expensive. Ergo, incentive for investment and disincentive for speculation.

Suppose you do a “buy and hold” strategy on a neighborhood that is gentrifying. The increased taxes you pay each your will eat into your profits. If you sell, the buyer will have have to pay those taxes too, so the value will be lower.
I think it's better to come up with replacements for those Google services and apps instead of rewriting the entire operating system. You need to solve the same problems on a linux smartphone as well, so Android gave you a lot of time savings, and I doubt the app sandboxing is even remotely as good on those non-Android linuxes. For Google Play for example there is F-droid, for push messages/FCM there is UnifiedPush, for Google Maps there is Osmand.
There are dozens of burbs just like Frisco, and that’s just DFW alone.
I was always taught growing up that asking that is rude! I still make a conscious effort not to do it straight off. It's a bit of a lazy conversation opener and with a bit more imagination (e.g. based on something interesting/strange that is happening in the moment) I often get better conversations. Or maybe people just think I'm weird
> The killer with high property taxes is that you have to keep earning more as your property increases in value, or there is a real risk of you falling behind

That's a feature, not a bug. The entire reason California's real estate market is so dysfunctional is that people are disincentivized from selling due to Prop 13, so you have people living in oversized houses paying a tiny fraction of the property tax their neighbors are.

You "falling behind" means someone else gets a fair shot at living in the area without being disadvantaged by a 10x higher property tax.

Ideally the property would never increase in value in the first place, because we'd build enough housing to prevent that.
Here is a reasonable starting point: https://ifcomp.org/about/if
The weirdest thing is that several languages have formatters and linters that constantly convert text into tokens and then back into text. Just do it one time and convert what text the user enters into a token then process that token like you say into a visual block that guides the developer better than plain text with completions.
You're correct that the game is to make a lot of money but the key to making that work is ensuring transactions are beneficial to all parties.

It doesn't matter how you structure things you end up with some way to climb the hierarchy. The problem with pure communist systems is they try to prevent all hierarchies. Human nature attempts to circumvent this, the only way to do so is via corruption and political power. Corruption and political power exist in abundance in free markets as well, but there is another outlet for personal ambition. People can get rich. The hope is that you can build a system that incentivizes people to get rich by providing value for everyone. You can have private for-profit healthcare but you have to make sure that people get a good deal out of that. Normally we rely on competition to ensure customers always get a good deal. I don't think that works in this setting. Healthcare is tricky, I don't think we've found a good way to setup incentives for heath systems to have the best outcomes. We will need strong government regulation no matter what we do. Competition will not provide sufficiently good outcomes.

In the US you have great hospitals but at astronomical costs, the entire system is distorted by insurance companies and massive bureaucracies. Here in NZ the hospitals are terrible underfunded socialist messes. We can't hold on to staff because we don't pay enough. Emergency waits are hours. My friends wife just spent 3 days before getting emergency surgery to reattach nerves and tendons in her hand. She had to travel 3 hours to another city to get that care. The last two times I required emergency care the wait was over 8 hours. I can't pay for better service and there is no private emergency option.
Why? They treat eachother like partners, not like vassal states, and the rest of the world is not treating India like a pariah, despite its relationship with Russia.

It's a win-win for India.
I live in Oxford, which was definitely mostly designed pre-car. People with kids pretty much still need cars, unless they want to buy a £1m+ house located in the perfect spot.
Thank you thats very interesting!

Why does India have such a large adoption rate? Because the got newer hardware to start with I guess?
In every image I've seen of a FreeBSD developer conference, the vast majority of the developers are running FreeBSD in a virtual machine on a Macbook. I guess they aren't considering real hardware support as a priority.
It's definitely designed for that scenario.
Also, if you need further evidence of this, look at the MARA diagram. It basically spells it out. There's 2 products in that stack that are branded: nginx and Kubernetes, the rest is noise, with nginx positioned as the only component for traffic ingress. Also if that napkin scribbling constitutes an "architecture"...
Wow yeah, you nailed it! Government debt is directly related to programs like this, and this was probably the lion's share of the expenditure!

DMSO is one of those substances. You can dissolve other substances in it and if you apply it on the skin it would go through. It leaves skin very dry and it tingles a lot. You would need to apply water or hydration cream to stop the tingling. But napkin would need to be drenched in it and it would probably evaporate quickly too if left for too long.
You are aware he is polling ahead of Desantis, right?
Agreed...the biggest failure of "Obamacare" was not separating out a basic level of care as a minimum that all citizens get and requiring those kinds of plans be made available in every state.

Where I live I can only buy plans that include things like Chiropractic and Acupuncture and all kinds of other non-basic or catastrophic services. If I want a low-cost basic care + emergencies plan, I'm SOL.
It's hard not to see this as victim blaming.

No amount of work Abe did with the church justifies his murder.

These articles strike me more as an attempt to curtail the sympathy votes that Abe's party is getting as a result of the assassination.

It's the worst kind of political sleaze.

Babysitting? These are patients deemed medically unfit enough to bring in. Who's looking after them after they're turfed out the ambulance? Every bed in every bay in A&E is occupied, each with an allocated nursing provision.

Oh we just double the number of nurses? Yeah, but no. They don't grow on trees. The current ones don't stretch (we asked). You can't just absorb 20-40 patients into your acute departments without space and staff. The paramedics are acting as those staff, their ambulances the space. Yes it's far from optimal.

Charging over hdmi is better anyway.
I can promise you that the many smart people working in hospitals have considered this issue.

If someone is walking-wounded, they WILL be unloaded to sit and wait for 6 hours in a corridor.

The people who the ambulances are holding for long periods are those who are too sick to be left without attention. The paramedic staff continue to monitor them in order to escalate further if their condition deteriorates, and depending on the situation, medical staff from the hospital will be involved in this.

The ambulance staff obviously have a moral and legal duty of care, and can't just leave a seriously unwell patient on the floor outside the hospital entrance to get to the next call, which would likely be a patient no more ill than the one they just abandoned.
How much of a majority?

My favourite was when one promised 'fiscal restraint' and no deficits, so they sold off a 99y lease on a tolled highway to plug their deficit. They promised prices wouldn't go up more than 30% in 15 years, but they went up 200%.

Agreed. We can't ignore that in many cases, students are in competition with each other for grades. If there's a reasonable assumption that the others have an unfair advantage, you're really not left with an alternative other than to cheat yourself. I think it's fair to compare it to the prevalence of adderall at universities.

I took some graduate courses in an online environment back when that was a relatively new concept in the late 2000s. Everything up until the midterm and final exam were online, and I had to physically go to a designated test area for those. I felt reasonably assured that everyone else was being held to the same standard.

5% annual return on an investment will take 20 years to break even regardless of the underlying instrument (or ~15 years if compounding).

With bonds or equities you will either be paid the face value of that bond or still own shares that hopefully continue to appreciate.

An “investment” into a solar panel doesn’t make sense to me because while you may profit off the electricity being sold the panel itself will be worthless in the future.

As an American from a non-immigrant family, I think stamping visas is easier than fixing a broken education system, so that’s what corporate leaders would rather do to fill seats. We have over 330 million Americans in this country, many seeking good jobs and salaries like those found in tech, yet we struggle to produce enough qualified STEM grads and resort to importing other countries’ elites. The programming and computer science education in most US high schools is near zero. It’s a national embarrassment. And frankly, the more US companies are helmed by new arrivals who retain strong ties to the mother country, the less they feel a kinship to the majority of Americans and the less likely they are to invest in those Americans’ futures. I’ve seen this preference play out firsthand inside Google and other places.

I expect disagreement from many who’d flip viewpoints if the shoe changed feet.

It's interesting to play armchair city planner and think what kind of tax structure to encourage more equitable housing. I imagine you'd want something like:

Owner occupier < owner landlord < owner vacation home < owner investor(vacant)

But I think you should also encourage density, like if you have a 5000 sqft house for two people, that should come with a sort of extra property tax than a 5000 sqft house for a large extended family or multifamily building.
No implication to promote the commitment of fraud, simply stating a fact to correct the previous comment.

Not stuck, but hardly a runaway success. That graph shows adoption at 40% and increasing, roughly linearly, at maybe 5% a year. At this rate, it's going to be 2040-2050 before we are in any realistic position for an IPv4 switchoff.

So: IPv4 space already pushing $50/address, ~$1bn of unused-but-potentially-routable IPv4 space (240/4) just sitting there, and 25 years to go before it becomes worthless. Any guesses what happens next?
I think you’re ignoring that those 40 hours of corporate speak don’t allow you to live the other 128 on your own terms:

- they’re how we ended up with technology panopticon, authoritarianism, etc

- they’re how we ended up with Wall St looting the nation, executives committing open crimes, etc

- they’re how we ended up with ever worsening products, nutrient depleted foods, etc

CorpSpeak is the emotional balm to never consider you’re creating hell on Earth for yourself, your peers, and your children — to emotionally disconnect yourself as the cause of your own suffering.

That emotionally numb 25% of your life is why the other 75% sucks and is on a downward trend.
I've always thought that trying to optimize life is the ultimate denial. In golf we have these people who spend hours on the range optimizing their swing but they seldom play a round because of course their score is never as "optimized" and that make them feel bad. They can max out point data but never in a way that changes the aggregate, which based on the invested effort turned into a feeling of defeat.

Life is mostly out of your control, if you think that the solution is to try and assert more control you're the reason the myth of Sisyphus is popular.
It guarantees that you can be forced to move at a whim. Twice I've had to move, once during the school year, because the landlord died. And they'll steal from your security deposit. Good landlords are young great people. Corporations are scum.

Let’s say you have a leasable asset, your choices are to maximize its net present value or to price the lease under the market in order to benefit someone else. The best thing you can do for someone else is to give them all of your assets and attempt to live in a manner that does not compete for resources with others (live in some kind of zero energy homeostasis until reaching an old age for example).

Obviously, these represent two extremes of selfishness and selflessness. So, what is a rule of thumb for an asset owner to not be considered greedy? Price 10% below market for example or allow 3 missed payments per year?

Greed is an easy label to assign until until you have to get concrete about it.

This isn't caused by investors, they simply see the value in owning and renting to those that aren't interested or capable of outright ownership.

The price increases seen in the market are driven by the rising cost of energy, materials, and the lowering value of the dollar through inflation.

If governments, state and local, were receptive to construction, you'd see the market compensate for higher prices with increased supply. With building heavily regulated in many areas you've got government driving prices up through their limits on supply.
I believe there is a specific subsidy, but in the "other direction" - that's why you can deduct the mortgage interest on your vacation home despite not being a human and not a business.

I'm aware that interest is generally deductible for businesses, and I'm suggesting that houses should be an exception to that. We subsidize most business borrowing because we want businesses to borrow and invest in stuff, and we should have exceptions for things we want to discourage investment in. Sure, it's difficult to imagine how to keep a giant corporation from finding a way around this, but we have difficulty getting giant corporations to pay taxes generally. It would still make sense to narrow or end the subsidy to discourage individuals and small businesses from investing in RE so heavily, and consider other approaches to discouraging larger corps.
Absolutely! UML gets a lot of discussion, but a more reflective model of a written program is something I long for. I love the feedback that I get from, say, writing a Tupfile and running `tup graph` to see an actual graph of all my recipes, complete with their commands, inputs, outputs, and interdependencies as understood by the build system. I haven't used Unity, but it looks like it has blender-like node-based programming that gives me the same feel, where each box ia just code but the connections between them are illustrated. Lastly, Emacs allows you to instrument function definitions with edebug, and stepping through the code or even just letting it run in a loop and observing the movement of the point-of-execution has given me a lot insight into packages that I've worked on. None of this is really "the thing", but each example gives me the same vibes, of showing how existing code or control flows are structured.
