It totally is. I even have a Xiamo robot toy that uses the USB-C shape connector over a completely proprietary connection (non of the voltage or protocol match)

The difference is it's one less issue to deal with: we don't have to fret about the connector shape anymore.

There's also a fighting chance to have "all around" cables that match 90% of what you expect to be using it for.
And, notably in this context, Rust's traits are auto-implemented in a chain, so if From<Foo> for Bar, then Into<Bar> for Foo, and thus TryFrom<Foo> for Bar, and thus in turn TryInto<Bar> for Foo.

This means that if first_thing used to have a non-overlapping value space so that converting it to other_thing might fail, so you wrote

other_thing = first_thing.try_into().blahblahblah;

... if you later refactor and now first_thing is a subset of other_thing so that the conversion can never fail, the previous code still works fine, the try_into() call just never fails. In fact, the compiler even knows it can't fail, because its error type is now Infallible, a sum type with nothing in it, so the compiler can see this never happens, and optimise accordingly.
because you're not being paid on your input, markets don't run on the labour theory of value. You're being paid for the lowest amount that you, or someone else, is willing to do your job, and that amount happens to be lower in a place with lower cost of living.

people earn more in San Francisco because the rent is a gazillion dollars and if they got paid Indian wages nobody would show up at the office.

I gave up self-hosting ages ago. For a while I even used the old Google for Families grandfathred in setup. That also went the way of the dodo a few years ago for me.

I signed up for ImprovMX, setup my domains there, and just route my emails to whatever service I want. I use a random gmail account that I use for my login and Google services, but the email itself is never exposed anywhere, I only give out the custom domain one.

ImproveMX handles routing for my whole family. My mom uses Outlook, and it routes there for her. If google, microsoft, or whatever give me trouble or ban me, I just quickly switch the email and nothing lost.

If you pay for their service, since they have a super generous free tier, you also get SMTP servers to use as outbound, which lets me send emails through them and not have the `on behalf of` email thing. Also they do all the work to make sure their IPs aren't blocked and in good standing with MS, Google, etc.

But:

1. I don't live near the sea.

2. I won't be alive in the year 2100.

3. RCP8.5 is a ridiculous scenario that assumes, amongst other things, that all renewable power is demolished and coal usage increases 500%. Even the BBC has debunked this one, reporting that researchers no long consider this scenario plausible:

https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-51281986

The fact that you're citing it indicates you aren't really that well informed about this stuff.

4. Even if that did happen, a 1m or even 3m rise that happens over the course of more than 100 years isn't going to cause anyone to suddenly have to evacuate their home whilst grabbing tin cans. That's pure Hollywood. People would simply build sea defenses.

5. The whole point of climategate was that it showed scientists were exaggerating their predictions, so quoting those same predictions as an argument against the emails is nonsensical and circular.

"At worst you could claim there were a few cases where scientists were applying techniques to paint their research results in a more favourable light than it might otherwise appear."

That's distinctly underplaying the seriousness of what was going on (and probably still is).

> responsibility for spam (and other kinds of abuse) can be delegated via simple reputation scoring for netblocks, sender authentication and a proper feedback mechanism along the chain.

Are there any real-world examples of this? I know other decentralized networks like Tor and BitTorrent have some sort of reputation and feedback system. What type of "spam" do they deal with and how well do they deal with it? Are there any systems more similar to mail with mechanisms to prevent spam?

Spam is a serious issue, not just in email, not just in decentralized systems - it's one of the main issues in technology today. If there's a solution, even a proof-of-concept in a smaller system would be great
That's a pretty strong claim there. Yes you are right that alcohol has a role a social lubricant. But to claim not having leads to being lonely at home is extreme.
Yes. No doubt the much vaunted algorithm will make their way to competitors, through digital fencers.
That's my guess too. These GC data structures need to be accessed from multiple threads, if I understood TFA, which means they won't compile normally in Rust. That is exactly Rust doing its job and preventing bugs, but it means that the developer then needs to use unsafe (or find a workaround with runtime checks, at the cost of overhead).
The point is they _were_ in charge.

People, even in the US, often forget that the US has European style healthcare coverage it is just restricted to those above the age of 65. People over the age of 65 also make up the largest voting block, and politicians in the US often hurt younger demographics to benefit the retirees as a direct result.
Unless your registry messes up and forgets to renew your domain. It’s happened to me before (don’t use them anymore though).
It would be impossible to say because it depends on the hypothetical Rust implementation. A kernel needs a huge amount of unsafe, all of which is surface area for these types of bugs.

Just did some quick research and it looks like you can serve pre-compressed static resources in Brotil. See the precompressed option of the file_server directive[1].

Is it? With live coding how long do your compiles take?

TBH Unreal C++ is faster to compile than Unity C#. It is slower than an interpreted language. But I’ve also worked pipelines that chain Python executions which compound into ~5 second boot time.

Faster is always better of course. But I often think people overstate compile times. The upside is it means people work hard to improve things from good to great!
What’s baseload? If you mean minimum demand from the grid, in Western Australia where I am it’s around 5% of peak demand,
In South Australia it’s zero.

In Western Australia coal will be gone by the end of the decade. In South Australia it’s gone already and generation from gas is on a strong downward trend too.

Australia’s conservative electricity system planning is expecting the country to hit 80% renewables. That’s going to end up being the lower bound.

It's 100% correct that's simply a negotiation, and this is another variable. But if you came at me and told me I had to pay you what I pay my US employees, my first response would be "alright, but you have to work US hours and speak perfect American English." Honestly, that's a good part of why we try to hire in one general area, in this case the US. There is a real cost to foreign developers who only speak passable English and who work on a schedule that has little or no overlap with US time zones.

Hey there, Let me know if you still need help. Have been doing flutter work for 3 years now.
I am not a Google employee, but I do work with email anti-spam at scale. There's a lot to critique here but it boils down to three points:

1. Spam filter behavior has changed because spam has increased in volume and sophistication, not because ISPs want to save money, or to eliminate competition. Some techniques that worked well 5 years ago aren't as effective anymore. One of the consequences of this has been a reduction in the value of IP reputation, from a spam signal perspective, particularly for low-volume IPs.

2. IP range reputation does matter. The increase in the value of IP range reputation, as a spam signal, has paralleled the decline in value of low-volume IP reputation. In practice, this means you need to either send enough volume to outweigh the reputation of your IP range (exact quantity varies based on a lot of variables, but as a very rough approximation, 1000 messages a day), or find an IP range with good reputation.

IP range reputation is not easy to assess, sometimes even for email professionals. So you can either gamble with a residential ISP IP, or a VPS IP, or you can find a provider that spends time, effort, and expertise on managing IP range reputation. The practical solution for most senders is the latter. Many of these offer a free tier, and many options are available among providers of all sizes.

3. The filtering behavior reported here is either misunderstood or misrepresented.
First, no, no major ISP (Gmail, Yahoo, Microsoft/Outlook, icloud) is going to permanently block an IP range; filters are designed to be dynamic. In severe, ongoing, high-volume spam scenarios, you could see a 2-week block, maybe occasionally 30 days. But never "one strike".

Mail deletion without a bounce also cam happen, particularly at Microsoft, but again it's almost never seen for legitimate mail - that response is reserved for long-term, severe spam scenarios, where anyone reasonable would agree that a block is warranted. And, again, this is dynamic.

So it looks like OP is either exaggerating, or has been trying to send from IP ranges with unusually bad spam problems.

>BTW, did you know the smtp protocol works without DNS? //

I did but assume no-one uses that as it's not practical because most IP addresses serve more than one domain? Or does SMTP handle that, like some extra "really-to:" header to encode the user@domain if you use IPvX for delivery?

How much was it? Just curious.
What is a safe workplace? Is it one in which we expect a workplace accident every year, decade, century, or millennium? The costs in terms of time, labor, and budget are not linear - that is money and man years that would be better spent elsewhere. The thing is that I think me mostly agree here as a society but most of these decisions are never actually decided in the first place.
Thanks!

because it's not the only factor in hiring? competency and likelihood to succeed in the role does still play a role
Hi! Beeminder cofounder here! I'm pretty excited to see all the positive comments but of course I've homed in on this negative one first. I think Beeminder is incentivized to make you fail at your goals the same way eBay sellers are incentivized to not actually send you your stuff after you pay them.

Anyway, we have a whole elaborate essay on why there's very much the opposite of a conflict of interest: https://blog.beeminder.com/defail/ (about how Beeminder revenue is proportional to induced user awesomeness)

There's a key faulty assumption that may make it seem like our incentives are more perverse than they are. Namely, it's not the case that Beeminder goals are binary things that you either succeed or fail at. They're things you make long-term graphs of, like averaging 10k steps per day or working 40 hours per week. You pay Beeminder because your overall progress is much greater with Beeminder than without it, even though the specific moments you pay are kicks in the pants when you've deviated from your commitment.

I'm definitely interested to hear if any of this is persuasive. We hear the perverse incentives thing a lot so we need to figure out how to convey our apologia much more concisely in our intro material! (And thank you for voicing it!)

> Welcome to the world (plane?) of zero-sum games and adversarial strategies! Appealing to fairness doesn't help in this world - because the values and corresponding strategies of your management and yourself are fundamentally adversarial to each other - that is, your delta of profit is their delta of loss. People like to argue sophisticated game theoretical takes that serve to obfuscate this simple truth.

If I am hiring outside the US, I'm doing it to save money. I'm willing to accept the downsides -- schedule differences, language barriers, etc, in order to save money. Otherwise I would just hire someone in the US. So if a foreign dev were to tell me I had to pay the US rates, I'd pass.

I think you should negotiate for as much as you can, but it is unrealistic to benchmark yourself against US employees of a US company based strictly on your skillset without any appreciation for other perfectly valid factors.
Docks aside, most people don't actually face that many issues. I use a bunch of random USB-C cables for everything, charging the mouse, headphones, connecting a keyboard, charging my MBP, connecting a microphone, camera, audio gear.

It just works for almost everything, the only two more finicky devices I have are a Divoom speaker, and the Nintendo Switch which only like their own charger.
Most of the US uses split units for central air (split meaning the condenser and evaporator are in separate units).

What you’re calling a “split” is more precisely called a “ductless (mini-)split” as even an evaporator in the mechanical room and linesets carrying refrigerant to an outdoor condenser is still a (conventional) split setup.
A trouble with 5G that nobody has mentioned in the comments is that we'll be redeploying hundred of millions of new devices, which has a significant cost on the environment for very little benefits.
Talent is scarse. People are hiring outside of the US because there is no one else to hire from at current payrange in those locations. You could start a biding war and pouch from other companies but that may not be financially viable for your business.
> even though we do the same work

This is dubious. I see a lot of "I'm doing the same as him/her/that level but only getting paid x" and it's often not true. Either in terms of responsibility or expectations (for example nobody really thinks an offshore / outsource provider will deliver the same as in-house) you are probably doing less. The solution is to get the job you are comparing yours to.

Edit: this comment posted at the same time as mine is saying exactly the same from an employer's perspective: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32718612
I said "two weeks" on Quora, and some Europeans (Dutch, I think) corrected me and said that 3 months was standard there.
Sending via a VPS is not the same as sending through the VPS provider's email servers. Providers usually have their own outgoing SMTP servers for their clients with people who make sure that deliverability is always working, so sending through those is much more likely to work than sending directly from a VPS.
I'd add "compilers", but that would spoil the Hawking joke.

I wouldn’t expect sending email to be the problem. But I’d be surprised if it’s delivered.

Even the lowest of those seems like an astronomical amount to me. I'm not sure I have 14 drinks per year. If increasing my drinking by 52x would on-average lose 6 months of life, seems like I probably shouldn't worry.
No way. No company in the world is just hiring anywhere and paying whatever the living wage happens to be at that location.
to me, the root cause of this is just money. a LOT of people have zero scruples when it comes to money, so they consider sending email to every email address they can find, in order to hopefully make a sale, to be a perfectly valid tradeoff.

these people deny that they are causing a problem, or that they ever caused a problem, because admitting that would mean they are a bad person, and they're not a bad person! they're "just trying to feed [their] kids, man."

making decisions based on money alone is always a bad idea. ALWAYS. I do not care if it is one person and one decision, or if it is a business making a decision on behalf of their stock holders, or anything else.

if money alone is your decision-making criteria, you are making a bad decision, or you are making a decision on bad criteria.

someone always pays for everyone's scramble for money. someone always pays, and it is always an unjust payment.

in this case, spammers have cost us our ability to self-host email, which is a very significant problem, as described by the author of the linked article, with rather severe consequences if you hope to have any freedom on the internet.

so, if you work for a company that will, over time, do just about anything to get people to click on ads, you are slowly destroying the internet as it was intended to be, and was, for 2-4 decades, depending on how you define that.
