To give you an idea, Hubble Space Telescope observation proposals look like this <https://www.stsci.edu/hst/phase2-public/16642.pdf> and <https://www.stsci.edu/hst/phase2-public/16701.pdf> (chosen because these two are what the HST has been doing in the couple of hours before I typed this). The ABSTRACT sections are probably the parts most of interest to you.

How could this possibly go wrong? Let me count the ways:

- You pay the hacker to hack you, the hacker takes the payment and disappears.

- The hacker hacks you, steals all the money for themselves and disappears.

- The hacker turns you in and collects a reward from the government, because the hacker has a moral conscience | is actually a Fed | decides getting a small amount of reward money legitimately from the government or potential victims has a better risk/reward tradeoff than conspiring with a stranger to steal a huge amount of money.

- The hacker hacks you, but keeps records of messages showing your complicity and blackmails you with them.

Basically it boils down to:

- No honor among thieves (you can't just trust the hacker to keep his word if he has a lot of incentives to break it)

- The courts won't help (generally if you say in court "I paid this guy to commit a crime and he took the money but didn't commit the crime," not only will the court refuse to enforce the contract and order the hacker to pay you, but you've now confessed -- under oath, no less! -- to being involved in a crime, which makes it quite likely you'll be arrested on the spot and prosecuted for your actions)

- Physical violence doesn't work well on the Internet. (Traditional organized crime enforces its "contracts" by threatening or carrying out physical violence against contract breakers or their family. This would only work if you knew your hacker's real name and location, and presumably the sort of people who sell illegal hacking services to anonymous strangers are quite, um, shy about giving their clients any information about their identity or location, for exactly the reason they don't want a crazed client to show up and physically attack them.)
IT security in the healthcare and financial sectors is now generally pretty good. After a few high profile incidents, everyone is scared and systems are a lot more locked down on average. Although you can still find problems on occasion, mostly in smaller organizations.

But why should we even worry about security on social media sites? I really have zero sympathy for people who upload private data to those companies and then complain when it gets hacked. What the hell did they expect? Twitter was never under any legal or contractual requirement to provide good security for user data.

The C172 (most common small airplane) has a Lycoming 4-cylinder engine of various sizes throughout the years. A representative engine, the O-320, is around 89% as efficient as traditional (non-hybrid, non-Atkinson) ICE automobile at turning gasoline into productive work.

I don’t view an 11% spread as “horribly inefficient” given the need for many redundant systems, air-cooling, high diameter pistons, and relatively low RPM.

That is drawing short side conclusions from limited data drawn from a world that has per-selected against nuclear.

If you look at the energy need of the whole world, and from first principle try to figure out what is the best way to generate enough power for the whole world to live a first world live-style, nuclear is by far the winner.

And the result will be system far more reliable and robust compared to one built with solar/wind/storage and long distance transportation.
That's one of the few F1 races I remember. (it wasn't Alonso, though, it was Barrichello). That was dramatic. If I remember correctly, Schumacher gave the trophy to Barrichello at the podium as a gesture to show that he was the one who deserved it and Barrichello couldn't hold back the tears.

Banks have excellent security. But often the restrictions are so onerous that productivity suffers.

One of the banks I recently worked at flipped the model from heavily restricting what users and systems can do to allowing them to do anything (including admin access for developers) and aggressively monitoring them.

In comparison my current bank needed 4 weeks and manager approvals to get a mouse driver installed.
ok you are SUPER misinformed about the motivation for the driver architecture change.

drivers live in the kernel, and prior to Windows Vista, they had the same rights as the kernel. pre-Windows Vista, a driver could easily be malicious and exfiltrate anything it wanted to anywhere it wanted. the driver architecture change fixed this gaping security hole, while still allowing drivers to exist.

drivers needed to be rewritten to accommodate LARGE changes to how they needed to do their work, and the result of that is that drivers which interacted with hardware directly no longer could, they had to ask the kernel to do stuff, and the kernel could say “no.” imagine being a driver maintainer and needing to react to this change.

this change often required a complete rewrite of the driver. this is why drivers of the era were so feature-limited.

this architecture change allowed kernel-level DRM drivers to become a thing, but DRM would have happened with or without any changes to driver arch, i assure you.

everyone suddenly needing to rewrite their drivers is what caused drivers to appear limited in the new paradigm. it simply took time to reimplement everything that existed in the old driver model, and people wanted working drivers before everything was implemented in the new drivers.

Thanks, so after reading over the post, one thing I noticed was how to take a specific category, for example, configurability — and build it out based on real customer demand. While might not be what you meant, one example would be reporting systems that basically let an end user build a report for anything. If you’re asking customers if they want it, frequently they well say yes, but regardless of if they know how to use it, frequently only build fix set of reports and never make adhoc reports. So, not expecting you to answer, but the question is, how do you identify if XYZ request is real, validate it, onboarding for customer success is appropriate, and kill it off correctly if users don’t use it to avoid pilling on tech debt.

Next, actually remember seeing customer feature request trackers and found a few, though have tried to find someone actively managing these in the open:

> Go on, tell me you would not totally freak out if you saw a dead body come back to life.

Well I guess this is a case of imprecise language. When you wrote “dead body” I was not imagining someone was believed to only have just died and being actively treated or resuscitated through modern medical treatments.

And of course, there is still debate in the medical world regarding what death actually is and when someone has “died” for the very reasons you stated.

So when I read “dead body” I’m picturing someone who’s beyond the realm of possible resuscitation. Of course, what’s that means exactly has changed as medical techniques advance, and our understanding of what death is will change with it. And I’m sure it will continue to change. It also poses the interesting question of what exactly would a useful definition of “death” be?

That said, I’m sure that window was much smaller 2,000 years ago when death was much more easily defined.

Yes but that's all or nothing then. And you lose out on some functionality.

There is no way for me to put my own configuration in the system and still have it persist. For example I change things in sshd_config (to turn off password auth), and PAM.

This is not OK, there should be a way for me to sign files so they are marked as valid.

I don't think the read-only OS partition or the SIP is a bad idea. The bad part is that Apple is the only one who controls it.

Please don't let facts get in the way. Of course the raw materials are cheaper, especially if purchased with some care and not at some fancy, organic market.

My feeling, though, is that the people making these arguments want to hide their moralism. So they talk about things like "cheap calories" and "food deserts" even those these ideas don't stand up to scrutiny. They don't want to blame the people making decisions they don't like so they want to imagine that it's because of external forces.

But the fact remains that if you're smart about it, you can live well on very little. This article from 2010 describes how a hipster foodie was shocked how well he could live on food stamps, all by being a bit careful and cooking for himself.

I only meant performance in context of the SQL execution, not the ORM. Agreed that is by far the most important. If one does use a query builder/ORM though it is also important to understand how that query builder/orm dsl maps to actual sql (even if it is a straightforward transformation).

I love query builders! Especially type safe ones. But if you have a complex domain doing updates can get messy. You are going to write a lot of code mapping domain objects to SQL updates. It's not insurmountable, but you are basically re-inventing an ORM. Maybe find a lightweight ORM for this purpose (The command side of CQRS).

But yeah if you don't need one that's great! I wasn't trying to convince anyone to use one, just that they can be worthwhile to learn.

Personally I like using either direct SQL or query builder style interface for reads/queries. Then I like using an ORM with domain objects for commands/updates. But I deal with a lot of complex domains in finance, supply chain optimization, production planning, etc...

It can go both ways, I know perfectly fine, ordinary looking women who don't get many likes either and will more actively message people the way men do. I think part of the issue is the 'average' man not being realistic. These apps make it easy to think "why should I message this person if there's someone better a few swipes away", when they would be stoked to get that person's number in real life. The reason not to do this is that you barely have any time to demonstrate value on these apps over the more conventionally attractive people you're competing with, and you will end up wasting a lot of time.

Sure some guys take the scattergun approach, but I think also a lot of men are being too picky and swiping past good matches.
Yeah that's not great
As you noted, the greater prevalence of right-wing violence, hate speech, and disinformation/misinformation causes the appearance of a moderation bias against conservatives. However, there has been an actual measured bias in favor of conservative voices (circa late 2021, the home timeline algorithm may have changed since then).

In other words, conservatives do more stuff to run afoul of the terms of service, and they also receive better treatment. GP is wrong/misinformed.

someone who’s died alone, it just improves a process that was
bound to take place in any event. Working with Infinite Space,
you can even use the inventory as a checklist, value all assets

you can give to movers, telling them what you want sent where.

I mean, by that logic, waiting for people to choose to vote in such a manner that changes the system (from the goodness of their hearts, no less) is a losing battle also. Remember, changing the system (whatever that means) involves the same democratic buy-in as loosening zoning regulations.

Ultimately, the only way to change to change things under a democratic process is to win hearts and minds, and in either approach, people will have to make hard decisions. Either it's forgoing short-term profit by loosening zoning regulations or forgoing even long term profit by enacting whatever large scale systemic change one envisions will solve the problem (strict price controls, rationing, expropriation, etc).
See: LMAX Disruptor and friends. The magic spell that serializes many threads of events into one without relying on hard contention. You can even skip the hot busy waiting if you aren't trying to arbitrage the stock market.

The way I would do it is a MPSC setup wherein the single consumer holds an exclusive connection to the SQLite database and writes out transactions in terms of the batch size. Basically: BEGIN -> iterate & process event batch -> END. This is very very fast due to how the CPU works at hardware level. It's also a good place to insert stuff like [a]synchronous replication logic.

Completion is handled with busy/yield waiting on a status flag attached to the original event instance. You'd typically do a thing where all flags are acknowledged at the batch grain (i.e. after you committed the txn). This has some overhead, but the throughput & latency figures are really hard to argue with. It also has very compelling characteristics at the extremes in terms of system load. The harder you push, the faster it goes.

Only because the engines themselves haven't evolved to handle higher manifold pressures. Lots of advancements in internal combustion engines, like combustion chamber and piston shapes that help manage the flame front, direct injection, wideband O2 sensors, are entirely unknown in certificated aircraft and still on the periphery even in experimental aviation.

Like, Mazda is running 14:1 compression ratios in gasoline engines, but 7:1 is considered normal for a naturally aspirated Lycoming and it'll often dip into the 6's for turbocharged versions.

I couldn’t agree more with the author. It’s my exact experience.

I’m in the market to get a car for my 16 year old daughter. Found a car she wanted online, made an appointment (after they confirmed the inventory with the dealership) - we drove 2 hours only to be told the car we wanted just got moved to sister dealership a few miles away… asked them if we could go see or buy it only to be told it sold (after a minute of “checking”) and by the way all cars are marked $10k above MSRP in the name of market adjustment!

I guess technically it’s not false advertising since the advertised car we wanted “sold”. What infuriated me is not even time wasted - with confirmation I started financing process!! Now I have an inquiry on my credit report for nothing.

It’s such an outdated sales model based on trickery and I hope dealerships go by way of malls in my lifetime!

none of those things gets rid of the root causes: too much financialization and speculation

alot of these things used to be regulated, discouraged or prohibited, but with deregulation of much of finance more and more wealth is generated from speculation, rents and leverage... if people can make money passively from doing nothing but owning something (real or virtual) there is less motivation for "real productive work" and squeezes out the rest of the economy.

this compounds over time and get the results you see today: high land costs, rents, inflation etc.

blocking immigration or adding tariffs etc will do nothing to stop any that....
