Cap and trade is a fine solution. It's basically equivalent to carbon pricing.

You can mess up carbon taxes by setting the wrong price, not increasing it predictably over time or exempting certain sectors, mismeasuring or whatever. That's basically the same things you can mess up with Cap and Trade.

Cross border effects have impacts too, but there's no fundamental reason why carbon pricing or cap and trade wouldn't be a good solution to weaning Germany off Russian gas.
A smartphone that fails to run a banking app that worked literally "yesterday" is not the same as 32bit deaktop apps no longer working on 64bit systems.

Either way, I expect my PC to be capable of running old software including 32 bit apps. My 64bit Windoze machine does that.

You don't write tech books for the royalties, you write them for the consulting opportunities they lead to.
Replies to my comment are questioning whether that was really a third or third-and-a-halfth option, but my point was that previously mainstream languages offered either memory managed by a run-time with an overhead (this includes ARC), or depended on diligence of the programmer to work correctly (Rust has copied C++ move semantics, but made moves automatic and checked).

Rust's ownership + borrowing instead of being somewhere on the axis of performance vs correctness trade-off, has traded off generality/flexibility instead (infamous for being unfit for doubly-linked lists). Unlike ARC, it works without a run-time, and on bare allocations and stack objects too. Unlike C++, it has zero-cost slices/substrings without a risk of dangling pointers.

Savarkar was not the founder of the RSS. He ridiculed cow worship, ate beef and encouraged the consumption of meat and eggs. He did not exert any significant pull on the RSS and never got along with Golwalkar. I think it would be helpful if you read actual history.
Ask HN: Is it smart to change jobs considering the possible recession? (EU)
I got a offer from a company, which among other things, consists of a medium pay raise in comparison to my present job and more exciting projects. The company is mid sized and honored as one of the best employers although I would be working for a branch located in a lower cost of living country.

In my current company I'm valued as a good employee and if it comes to cutting costs I highly doubt it I would be first or second in line.

Considering the upcoming recession, is it wise to job hop for not such a huge pay rise or should I stick to my current, mildly boring but safe job instead?
Meanwhile in Italy basically nobody (except Sky and Iliad) offers any support for IPv6.

TIM had a very poorly functioning technical trial of native IPv6 12 years ago, and while it still exists (and sucks) it only works on ADSL (not VDSL, 20Mbps ADSL).

I guess that carriers have just too many IPv4 to throw around, mobile connections are all NATted with no sign of any future roll-out of IPv6 in sight.
>As to stand-by generation, no need to grasp for non-free-market solutions. You just bid on stand-by generation capacity on the open market, problem solved.

Funny, here in Spain I don't even get an IPv6 address from my fibre provider (which is a sub-brand of Orange).

Changing existing infrastructure is obviously quite expensive. But relying less on infrastructure is not. Reducing energy expenditure, consuming fewer goods, immigrating people instead of outsourcing manufacturing, reducing military footprint (some first world militaries create as much carbon footprint as entire countries altogether), are all very reasonable sacrifices we can make to make the climate war more equitable across the human race.

> Are we supposed to believe that there is no separation between us and a bunch of rocks nearby?

No, but our consciousness is an illusion. What separates us from other animals is how hyper-developed our prefrontal cortex is, and the sense of "future" and cause-and-effect.

I like to think that consciousness is just a side-effect of this advanced survival system. A bug, if you will. Consciousness is just a weird artefact of a biological system that has gone self-aware.

Here's a philosophical nerd snipe: we're aware of our physical limitations (i.e. our eyes can only see a limited range of wavelengths, we have a blind spot, etc.). What are the limitations of our consciousness? Our self-awareness blind spots?

> some reference books handy

Looking at a random list [1] of O'Reilly books, I can see 3 categories:

- The ones for beginners, like "Learning Python" or "JavaScript: The Definitive Guide",

- The ones that will be outdated even before reaching the shelves of a library, such as "Kubernetes in Action" or "Hands-On Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn, Keras, and TensorFlow",

- The ones that are more about concepts such as "Clean Code".

I can't see any of those being used as a reference book. The Internet and official documentations is the reference book.

There’s plenty of blame to go around, diesel filters aren’t checked for at MOT and (as an example) it’s quite easy to buy a passing result as the garages responsible for servicing your car are the same one carrying out the test (and offer guaranteed pass packages so they would also bear the cost of putting anything right that failed - so they’re strongly incentivised to ignore problems).

That all said, testing wasn’t mandatory for most of Covid and emissions aren’t really tested properly even though they were supposed to be years ago (emissions tests won’t detect removed particulate filters if you don’t accelerate during the test, so the garage that just took a bribe to remove your filter can choose not to do that and wave you on through).
CGNAT is pretty expensive compared to rolling out IPv6 and tunneling IPv4 on it using stuff like MAP-E. I guess they still have no need to NAT everyone ATM because they have plenty of IPv4s to distribute to their subscribers.

Muscular flexibility is underrated. Why?
I work at a decent-sized ISP in Sweden, and we've been trying to get IPv6 to customers for over 10 years. It's hard. The way the Internet is built (many municipal broadband networks[0]) means there's middle networks that might not support IPv6 (the reason used to be "no interest" and "it's not a priority").

PTS is starting to show some interest[1], we'll see what leads to.

POSIX requires that aliases be observed in the context of a shell script, but there is a trap here.

When bash is called as /bin/sh, it will be in POSIX mode, and will honor those aliases.

When called as anything else or when otherwise not in POSIX mode, those aliases will fail.

Bash was around for a decade before the POSIX shell standard was defined, so there is legacy baggage.
I lived for a few years in a converted meat packing factory in west Chicago. The apartments were really nice, except for the giant house centipedes that would occasionally migrate inside when it rained and would drop from the ceilings. It was essentially a long warehouse type building, so they put apartments/windows on each side with walking corridors down the middle and multiple floors, and a parking garage in the basement.

It is not one study, it is a meta-analysis.

I wonder if this would be a good data stucture to use to approximately find the most common substrings for inputs where doing so exhaustively would lead to too large memory overhead. For example to "train" a dictionary for compression. I was thinking something like:

1. pick a substring length L to look for
2. pick a number M for how many "most common substrings
of length L" we wish to find
3. initiate a count-min sketch for approximate counting
of substrings, and an array of size M for keeping
track of the top M substrings
4. do a linear scan over the input (length N) to count
each substring of length L (so ideally we'd be using
rolling hashes for the count-min sketch)

We probably would have some false positives, and partialy overlapping substrings (I expect the latter is a difficult problem to solve elegantly, unless scanning over the text in steps of L works better than I think it would), but it might be an efficient heuristic.

The exhaustive search would be almost the same but use a prefix tree (aka trie) instead of a CMS, which has good average case overhead because tree, but if we're dealing with a "every substring is as unique as possible" worst case scenarios memory overhead could blow up to [input size times fairly big constant].

Said worst case scenario is quite easy to construct btw, just start with https://oeis.org/A142150 using 8 bit numbers, then modify to exhaust all remaining three-number combinations after exhausting all unique pair combinations, and so on.

If you're talking about the RIPE region, then;
- Can I request a /48 or larger IPv6 prefix from my sponsor LIR -> Yes. Something bigger than a /48 might be hard, but /48 shouldn't be any problems.
- Can such IPv6 prefix be further distributed to customers? -> No. A IPv6 PI assignment can only be used by yourself and your own infrastructure and not assigned to customers[0].

Other RIRs will have the information on their website, or your sponsoring LIR will be able to answer any questions :)

In one sentence: Everybody already knows how to use SSH, only the infra department knows how to use kubectl.

Don’t underestimate how much pushback and struggle even such a small tool addition can add to developers with already too many other things on their mind.

This enables the whole dev org to use ephemeral workflow from k8s, without having to understanding k8s.

SSH also comes with a lot of tooling integration that is not as readily available as for k8s. Tunneling through anything, IDE integration or sshfs to name a few.

Granularly locking down a k8s cluster can also be a challenge. It’s easier to just block your k8s api server from anyone who is not admin.

Otherwise in principle you are right, kubectl should on paper be equally or even more capable.

This sentence shows you don't understand the history of how we got here. When Einstein published the theory of relativity he added a constant term to an equation to enable the theory to describe a static state universe. This goes totally counter to your "conspiracy theory". In fact he missed a shot at predicting the big bang theory!

Yes, but why should we pay the price when it is our natural resources being sent abroad? Why is it not allowed (due to EU/EEC-regulation) to have a competitive advantage on energy prices when it is allowed to have an advantage on for example lower wages.

Plus, transport of electricity is not efficient. You lose a lot in the cables. It would be better to transport the factories that need it to where the electricity is generated.

And, the backlash is because of what is perceieved as poor energy politics from the central european powers. Making oneself dependent on fossil energy Russia while decommisioning nuclear is madness when trying to reduce carbon emissions.

Northern europe is also much more based on the use of electricity for heating than the rest of europe, so it hits them a lot harder when prices skyrocket. The result is much more use of wood for heating, which in turn increases air pollution.
