I do actually agree that the privacy and anonymity aspects of IPFS are not well- conveyed. I think people get hooked on the "censorship-resistant" nature of decentralized systems, without understanding that even if you have multiple sources, for instance in a content-addressable network like IPFS, aggressive censorship systems have other strategies to dissuade dissemination or punish readers. You always have to be thinking a few steps ahead. Services like Tor and, I hope, the IPFS network both try to convey what threat models they are useful for, and which they are not, but it's really hard to stop overenthusiastic re-statements that give them super-powers they do not, in fact, possess.

That said, there's a bunch of careful thinking right now going on about how IPFS's privacy story could be improved: https://blog.ipfs.tech/ipfs-ping-2022-recap/ has a couple of sessions on this, and is a great summary of some other recent developments in the space.

One of those improvements is in the point about nodes being high CPU, RAM, etc. (I actually find this to be more of a challenge when running the full IPFS Go node locally on my desktop, rather than on a VPS; it requires some tweaking.)

The strategy right now is to encourage more implementations of IPFS to cover more use-cases; the original go-ipfs had to do everything, including maintaining some legacy decisions. Nowadays, there's a lot of effort on alternative IPFS implementations that can be slimmer, or optimised for particular scenarios, e.g. on an embedded device, serving a high-load web gateway, or providing millions of files. Protocol Labs recently renamed their canonical go-ipfs to kubo (https://github.com/ipfs/kubo ) to make it more of a peer with other implementations.

Of course, I love all these new generation implementations EQUALLY, but if you pushed me, I've enjoyed playing around with https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh , a modular rust implementation building off the increasingly robust rust libp2p etc libraries. There's some more to pick from here: https://docs.ipfs.tech/basics/ipfs-implementations/
Yep, we have built this database at Turquoise Health. I agree, the data is massive - and don't forget that it is all refreshed monthly!

USB-C is a mess. Sometimes everything works as intended, but most of the time it doesn’t. Sometimes power wont work, sometimes its the display, other times the USB.

> Americans overwhelmingly prefer single-family detached homes when given other options. How is choosing a higher-quality of life option “wasted”?

It's not. But it's wasteful in an urban core, where that lack of density forgoes real economic opportunity. It also creates an easily-identified cause for the lack of housing supply.
Eh? Mainframes are and always were general purpose computers, and run stufd like Linux just fine.

Nowadays they are mainly meant as machines with extreme reliability guarantees, from things like running multiple processors in lockstep to detect spontaneous processor errors, but they're still just computers.

While their cost makes them hugely impractical for .øst usecases, mainframes do have some really cool tech, including their new CPU designs with quite interesting cache layouts.
There's a lot of conflation and paternalism in this article.

I get the TikTok tics being socially motivated and reinforced. Expanding that to include social reinforcement of being Fair Ophelia... fine, that can be a subset.

The wide sweeps this article makes at people trying to deal with a chronic condition, especially ones where the symptoms are not immediately visible (pain, fatigue, nausea)... that's one of the reasons why women rarely get diagnosed as quickly and have worse health outcomes [0].

The core root here is sick people, mainly women and girls, being unable to get medical help that actually helps. This leads to seeking social support elsewhere, which then reinforces bad cycles.

Moving the blame to the sick people, instead of the medical system which can't help them, is not great.

Russia has a 500 year long uninterrupted track record of invading and occupying its neighbors. Now, you might say that this is an unfair comparison because hundreds of years ago everyone was doing that, and okay, yes! But the last time Russia bit off a piece of one of its neighbors was 2014! Russia acts like a 19th century imperialist in the year 2022! The last time Russia occupied a foreign territory and deported its inhabitants to Siberia was this year! And they’ve done it every place they’ve occupied in the 21st century! I mean, it’s actually incredible.

Saying that this particular instance of territorial expansion has a self-defense motivation is, I think, implausible given the history.
It kind of depends.

Opening a tech company in SF is very smooth sailing in the small (interaction with the government, registering, paying taxes, etc). Source: did it.

Where SF fucks tech companies extraordinarily hard is housing costs (insane), commute times / options (even more insane, shockingly incompetent), and the horrible provision of education, a major concern for parents.
> Ship an entire physical PC to the user pre-loaded with the application?

Maybe not that, but it’s becoming popular to run high-intensity programs on a remote server and stream video to the user’s machine, both for pretty sensible reasons (e.g. Stadia for games) and totally nonsensical ones (e.g. Mighty for Google Chrome). It’s mainframes all over again!

I agree. I'm not sure what they've got in store next. I imagine they might leverage the VC connections rather than the money to try and get a bigger foothold in the enterprise space, for one, but $100M is $100M and I've got no idea where that can go given the current state of things.
I was actually thinking it was like the Falklands.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Black_Buck

The British were able to fly bombers from tremendously far away, with a chain re-fuel strategy where the re-fuelling tanker planes are themselves re-fuelled by other tankers which then turn back. Later iterations were optimised by thinking more carefully about who should transfer fuel, to who, and when, as in this example.

Arguably Black Buck was pointless, it was certainly not pivotal in the outcome of the war, but the actual process was fascinating.

I’m a full-stack software engineer who loves working with a team and embracing challenges.

I am proficient with JavaScript, React, Ruby, and PostreSQL and am comfortable with Go, Docker and AWS. I recently built Kuri, an open-source Dead-Letter Queue-as-a-Service for distributed applications deployed on an AWS infrastructure. You can read more about it here: https://kuri-dlq.github.io/

I am looking for opportunities to work with a team of passionate people from around the world to create some truly great technology. I am an ambitious and driven individual who is willing to continuously learn, improve and help others around me.

If you have any positions available that you think I might be suitable for please don't hesitate to contact me.

The US is really a unique case even now - so many factors to consider. If I had to guess I would say that the US leads the entrepreneurial space for many reasons other than healthcare but that does not mean universal healthcare would make it even more entrepreneurial. More than anything, however, I think those social safety nets would encourage people to consider career changes more (like if they are very dissatisfied with their current one) and job movement between existing businesses.
Are we talking about slipping in the odd quote from the Bible? Let the atheist who has never quoted from John cast the first stone. My advice would be to just put up with it.

If they're actively proselytizing to you and making you miserable in the process, that's probably something you could pursue with your employer depending on your jurisdiction. in the USA, your employer has a duty to maintain a non-hostile work environment regarding protected grounds. Religious belief, or non-belief, is one of those grounds. A bunch of evangelicals busily preaching to the only Jew in the office (or whatever) is basically the textbook example of what not to do.
Then you went for a strawman because the discussion was about performance, not expressiveness.
How many pandemics in your lifetime?
I think the answer is because they simply support attacking and targeting human rights organizations, such as gay rights organizations, or ones that protect targeted minorities.

I tried to get them to talk about this issue, and they basically admitted that they support removing, for example, gay right organizations from the internet, via DDoS attacks.

Because apparently protecting gay rights organizations would infringe on their free speech to target and remove those organizations from the internet.

It seems to me KeepassXC is currently one of the most secure options for password management. The attack surface of offline password managers such as KeepassXC is much smaller than that of the online password managers.

You may sync it with your tool of choice, eg, Dropbox.

There are some places that your relative velocity with a propellant depot may be near zero already.

Natural staging points are not stationary, but they may be in fixed orbits, such as LEO (of a certain altitude, inclination), maybe a halo orbit of a Lagrange point (NASA’s Gateway is in NHRO, which is similar), or a highly Elliptical orbit near escape velocity. And you can do this for Mars as well.

By refilling at these staging points, you can chop up the rocket equation so you don’t get hit hard by the exponential. You have to get fuel there in the first place, and to do that you can use slower, more efficient trajectories or solar-electric propulsion (much higher Isp but slower) or in situ propellant production. You can also have better cooling at these staging points, taking a mass penalty off your crewed vehicle and offloaded to the depot in the case of cryogenic propellants that may boil off over time without an active chiller.

Propellant depots are a pretty powerful tool for expanding capability for space exploration. NASA picked SpaceX’s Starship as the lander for their Artemis lunar missions, and that will fuel up using a depot in Earth orbit.
I think it is, yes.

Of course, that's why you show value. When I dropped out of college, I knew I couldn't rely on a piece of paper to say I was smart. I was lucky, it's easy to show value in CS.

Its just wild that in the last decades of such abundance very little resources are put towards the practical aspects of getting people off fossil fuels - they really just preach from their podium and nothing more - and now in the early months leading into the absolute winter of hell for hundreds of millions in Europe they decide to use this kind of rhetoric at the podium (god help us if anyone or any government takes the rhetoric seriously)
It is unfortunate that the consumer grade GPUs cannot be shared in Proxmox/ESXi/UNRAID like you can with the "pro" level cards. One of the four major benefits of going with RTX A5000 cards over 3090's was that I can share one or more GPUs amongst several virtual machines, i.e. Shared Passthrough and Mutl-vGPU.
The PCIe versions of those cards are widely known to experience frequent microcode hangs (which can also hang your entire machine) depending on "some circumstances" (allegedly linked to 5 GHz 802.11n or something).

I agree that Ukraine was not going to join NATO in March 2022 ; however, it can completely be assumed that the window of "attacking Ukraine before it joins NATO" was only going to narrow.

And, given the importance of Russian oil and gas in the post-covid recovery period, the predictable reduction in nuclear capacity in France and Germany, the plausible lack of support from EU population and German industry for a cold winter, Putin's aging, etc... It might just be that the timing felt "as good as it will ever be".

Also, being on the "initiative" side gives your more positive outcomes. Best case was a flash invasion of Kiyv with public support. Next best case, a flash invasion without public support. That didn't pan out, but their next option is not terrible : grab as much territory as possible in Spring and Summer, then... Wait it out. General Winter will give Russia a pretty nice seat at the négociation table when EU citizens finally bail out.

Now, it's possible that we europeans stand the cold (or maybe, FSM willing, that winter is _not_ cold), that US weapons work, and that Putin contends with "I keep Crimea and some water, you join NATO, Dombass stays neutral." Sadly, that looks like the "best" plausible outcome to me - but who knows...
I mean, SF residential prices are still super high, it seems like it oughta pencil out.
> While Riff does its best to infer external dependencies from your project's crate dependencies

How does it do this? Just a list of known packages and their dependencies, or?

I'm using https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/ (rust bindings for pytorch's c++ api). Depending on the hardware I'm building for I either need to download a cpu build of pytorch, or a cuda build of pytorch. How would this work with riff?

Is there any hope of a good cross compiling story? If so, that would be awesome (currently I just don't even try if there are significant C dependencies)!

How thoroughly are dependencies cached? Backed to the pytorch example it's a fairly big (and thus slow) download, I don't want that happening too frequently.

---

In general this looks like something that could be really useful. Using projects with significant C dependencies currently sort of sucks, and this looks like it might actually fix the problem :)
Calendars are far more useful as web apps than other incarnations; you can open them anywhere and don't have to carry a specific artifact with you to do it.

That's a slippery slope. Lots of legal requirements exist to protect someone. Legal requirements for windows are pretty reasonable to ensure people have at least some bare minimum of access to natural light in their home, rather than just living in a box.

It makes sense if you think of the FSF as a religion, and consider the thesis of the Free Software movement as theological - free software is an ultimate moral good, proprietary software is an ultimate moral evil, and the FSF sees themselves as clergy spreading the gospel and purifying themselves from the corruption and degradation of modernity. Sacred rituals and texts tend not to change over time, after all, being sacred they don't need to change.

The requirements for residential units are primarily the International Building Code, which are the expensive ones. The city only manages planning, such as a residential use can go in a certain area. To actually build, you need a building permit which has to conform to City and State building codes [2], which right now is basically the International Building Code [1]. And yes, it would cost a fortune to convert office into residential use. However, if office buildings become truly deserted and can be bought at very low cost, then it can start making financial sense.

The building codes have evolved over time to protect life/safety of the occupants, so not something you would want to have the City bypass.

As cool as Brave is, I still think it has big issues running Chromium. Chromium still allows Google to dictate a lot of the internet. We should have more competition in the space and that will help us all. I honestly even wish there was more than Chromium (and the various colors), Safari, and Firefox. It really seems a lot of these decentralized services have become highly centralized and thus a lack or competition and growth.

I don't really think that's true - we write quite a lot of SQL in-house and we have no issues doing it safely. There are some tools we rely on to make our lives easier but these mostly revolve around making batch operations easier to express (like IN(:array) as opposed to having to glue some string joining logic relying on an array count into every individual query). SQL definitely isn't the cleanest thing ever and I have a number of improvements I'd personally really appreciate (changing statement order, trailing commas, better aggregate and window modifier definitions) but doing Serious SQL is definitely an accomplishable thing - even weird statistical bucketing and aggregation that produces a query that's... 291 lines long.
