I never said the people should have their property seized like in comunism and that the government should redistribute it. But i can't endorse the current system either. Surely a better system can be designed if we put smart people up to it, no?

What's your solution? All you did was call me and everyone who thinks the current system is wrong, a commie.

>A large factor in current conditions is the constriction of supply by regulation.

Yes, which is why we're in this mess. It's a rigged system masquerading as the free market. Those who own property have vested interest in increasing the value of what they own and use it as leverage to buy more, at the expense of those who don't own and wish to buy in.
This seems like a hit piece. No, not every idea of Elon Musk is worth considering, but in this case he is absolutely right about mass transit and hyperloops.

We need a combination of underground hyperloop systems and overhead maglevs for inter and intra city transportation.

We can get rid of cars and public parking spaces. The roads can still be used by personal vehicles for a small annual use fee. And we just saved a shit ton of taxes that is mostly used for care and feeding of govt employees and their bloated pension funds until forever.

At some point, we have to start living efficiently. If it means less govt jobs..so be it. UBI would still be cheaper.

If EM wasn’t dumb as rocks to listen to his sycophant friends, his reputation wouldn’t be in shreds and he could have built 2-3 truly sustainable cities with the stupid money he was going to use to buy Twitter..and could have be the emperor of his own domain.

I really do not think this is true, and is what the parent is getting at. Yes, the videos shown are a reflection of _past videos_ shown to you, and your reactions to them.

That does not mean that they are a _direct_ reflection on you, or an acknowledgement of the truth. The first videos shown to you, or a random stray video with off-content, whether you like them or not, can have a strong biasing effect.

It might really be worth going oldskool:

Make a website. HTTPS. Put something like PHProxy on it. If you really want to, stick on some messaging, like a BBS. Then you can upload stuff. It's not going to be quite as quick as snapping a pic on WhatsApp or Twitter, but it's not bad.

Then put a plausible front on the website. Like, if you're in the grains business, put some public data about grain prices, trade broker services, weather, that sort of thing.

I agree and that's why vite-plugin-ssr sponsorship https://github.com/sponsors/brillout plays a central role here: eventually, there will be enough sponsors to make vite-plugin-ssr a self-sustainable project a la Vue. It's a virtuous cycle and you can expect the number of sponsors to increase.

A more conservative answer is that vite-plugin-ssr is actually already fairly stable: only minor adaptations are required upon new Vite major releases. Do-one-thing-do-it-well tools stabilize quickly, that's one fundamental architectural advantage. Now the DX status quo is continuously evolving/improving and vite-plugin-ssr has to keep up (when not leading the way e.g. with Route Functions :-)). But, in the worst case scenario, you'll be stuck with non-modern DX while you'll be able to upgrade React/Vue/... independently of vite-plugin-ssr until you migrate away.

A more personal answer is that I love doing it, so expect me around ;-).

That jumped out to me too. The point of use after free is that your program has a logic error. The logic error doesn't go away just because it doesn't crash.

There's a lot of wisdom in this post, but that made me wince. It's a bit like saying "Our system doesn't crash when we dereference a null pointer." Well, cool. What could possibly go wrong.

Still, I think it's best to just ignore that line and read the rest of the post. It's an unfortunate distraction to the core idea (which does have real value). For example:

> here is how we calculate the amount of memory needed to store messages for TigerBeetle’s consensus protocol: <snip>

> And if we get the calculation wrong? Well, since we enforce static allocation, we can check these calculations with assertions (i.e. that a free message is always available). If we then get the static allocation calculation wrong, this can be surfaced sooner through fuzzing, rather than having no limits and eventual resource exhaustion (and cascading failure!) in production. When combined with assertions, static allocation is a force multiplier for fuzzing!

Being able to put a hard upper bound on the amount of memory your system can use is generally a sign of good design. The alternatives are somewhat messy but still work. (The HN clone I maintain https://www.laarc.io/ runs via a while-loop bash script, because it dies via OOM every couple weeks. But it works great, since every time it dies it just restarts.)

That’s a good question and it helps me think my way through how Bonfire (at least it’s website) makes me feel.

I have long divorced myself from the consumption of film, games and music; so when it’s understood that without the presentation of an emotional experience the appeal of these three things would effectively be neutralized, I’m fine with that.

My observations are less targeted at software as an art form. I think it’s more about how it’s being marketed and what the effectiveness of a software’s marketing suggests about its targeted audience.

I would be more interested in Bonfire if they had a plain web page that just said for example, “Bonfire is a social networking service that can communicate with the ActivityPub protocol and does X, Y, Z and we are working on W. We named it Bonfire because bonfires are like quaint parties but with a raging flame in the middle of it.”

To summarize, maybe I prefer certain software that advertises itself plainly by its merits than…I guess more “psycho-social” sort of attributes?

This will almost certainly echo what others are suggesting, but here's my recommendations:

1. Have a public portfolio of your projects. It's better to have code examples available, even if they're embarrassing. It's important that a remote job can know what they're getting when they hire you. If you have old vs new projects, mark which ones are newer so a remote hiring team can get a sense of your progress.

2. Be open about your experience level, both in personal projects and professionally. Don't try and puff yourself up, it will make for a very bad experience. That doesn't mean don't make yourself look good, but it means do it as honestly as possible. Remote work can mean you are more on your own with less support, so a company needs to know how much support hiring you actually means.

3. Less about being hired, and more about if you get hired: If possible, have an isolated place in your home where you can work, and only use it for work. When you are there, you are working, and if you're not there, you are not working. It's incredibly important to have a separation between your personal life and work life when you work from home. If you don't have this, your employer, whether intentional or not, will take advantage of you and your time.

4. Ask in your interview what a day at work looks like. Do you have standups? Who do you ask for help? Do you need to work with people in different timezones? How many people will you directly work with? Who is the person that tells you what you should work on?

This is about to get much more prevalent and less DJI specific.

Right now, AeroScope is pretty much the only widely used tracking product on the market, because it can decode the proprietary identifiers contained in several generations of specialized DJI radio link (the hardware is hilarious - it's basically a gigantic mainboard with every generation of DJI chipset stuffed onto it).

However, with the new FAA requirement for standardized remote ID, anyone will be able to track drones which transmit using ASTM F3411 approved ID methods, using even a normal Android phone and software like https://github.com/opendroneid/receiver-android .

So, it's only a matter of time before an "ADS-B aggregator site but for drones" appears, at which point this type of tracking data will be always on and always available. I suspect that within a few years, it won't be able to fly a compliant drone in the US without having your flight appear online.

This is one advantage of tariffs. Increase the costs. For some applications there are easy substitutes, for others it is harder which incentivizes the creation of alternatives.

Of course the downside of tariffs are also well-known. Retaliation tariffs that damage your own industry. Increased costs being passed own downstream in the economy resulting in less value creation. The overall deadweight loss of not utilizing comparative advantage.

It still might be worth it, but you don't get that "force" for free.

Joplin stores files as separate markdown files, and the database is just an index for search and metadata.

I'm not a huge fan of Joplin's UX, but not having to pay for sync (and being able to choose the backend for sync) is important enough to me that it is a differentiator greater than the overall UX. I can point all of my Joplin installs to the same S3 bucket and boom done.

I'm hearing that with Obsidian you can use OneDrive/iCloud/Dropbox/etc for sync but that is all based on the sync provider. To me that brings ambiguity about how concurrency and conflict resolution are dealt with, since the app kinda capitulates that to the external storage engine right?

If you're in the kind of megacorp where you have no choice to implement this crap because of your size then good luck staring into the void but the actual realistic advice for everyone else is.

1. Specify your infrastructure as code, doesn't matter what tool; can be bash for all it matters. But no manual changes to your AWS account(s).

2. Monorepo your company's app(s) and the IaC together. Obviously allow them to be deployed independently but make it so it's not a huge PITA to make a code change with a corresponding infra change in a single PR.

3. Require reviews from someone with infra experience to check MRs that change infra and use that as an opportunity to narrow permissions.

If there are so many infra changes that your ops team is overwhelmed reviewing PRs then your permissions are too narrow.
The OS doesn’t actually map/allocate the pages to you until you touch them, so if you preallocate 30 GB and only use one row, you’d only be using 4 KB (or whatever your page size is). This is the same as if you’d individually malloc’d the single row, since deep down malloc just calls mmap.
I only meant port of a curses based lib as in “This is an updated version of gui.cs that Miguel wrote for mono-curses in 2007”

so it would be natural that it’s still a normal keyboard-first terminal ui lib because gui.cs was. Would be pretty strange if this took a whole different direction or scope and became a WinForms-in-the-terminal. Can’t see anything in the video, source or history that suggests that it’s anything but a terminal ui only adapted for more targets other than curses.

Actually the CPI is weighted. You can find the weights here [1].

Note that the weight for housing is much, much higher than the weights for food and energy costs. That plus historically high levels of inflation in housing means that housing is a big driver of inflation.

> You can’t argue about a zero social distancing world based on data from countries that implemented social distancing.

You can very easily argue that the mitigations we put in place were based on the theory that Covid only had a droplet based spread, like the flu. The problem is that Covid is fully airborne, like measles, so the mitigations we put into place were ineffective.

Social distancing is a good example:

A person infected with a virus that has a droplet based spread will spray out droplets when they cough or sneeze and those droplets will fall to the ground within six feet of their emission.

An airborne virus is emitted by people even when they are just breathing normally, and can stay suspended in the air for hours. An airborne virus will spread throughout an enclosed space.
