Nice project, lots of edges to it.

- multi sensor (lidar, mag, video, multi-spectral (with calibrations(?))

- auto docking + recharging (?)

- 3D environment mapping (?), collision avoidance (?)

I spent a decade or so writing | field running geophysical mapping software.

Currently I'm mucking about 'teaching' high school kids (W.Australia) to swarm drone clouds about tractors and such things.
I've been on international flights booked by my comoany, where I cannot change or upgrade anything - except my meal selection to say I need a special meal.
So is it a sintax for n-ary trees? Nice!

I agree with almost all of your comment.

But I do think Chinese culture has greatly valued education (and standardized testing) for about 20 times as long as the gaokao has existed; in that sense, too, the school system is a reflection of the surrounding society, not only vice versa. It's true that the "education" in question has often been more a matter of convincingly repeating established doctrines than of repudiating them, and often valued because it was a gateway to material gain, by way of standardized testing.

On the other hand, I never see the kind of anti-intellectualism that got Trump elected in the US (and Hitler in Germany) in the families of my Chinese friends. I know it can exist in Chinese culture — the Cultural Revolution had plenty of it — but it doesn't seem to be a dominant thread the way it is in the US. And this is true of families from Taiwan, too; it's not just a Mainland Chinese reaction to the CR. They just don't seem to have the nerd/egghead stereotype.

(And I still don't understand why that other person thinks Chinese people don't spend enough on schooling or why they would consume more if they did.)
That unmoderated hellscape sounds bad, but I see no reason to think all social media being shut down would be such a terrible outcome.
Not great. Because I disagree with you. You learned something. But established nothing. You are no closer to proving your hypothesis.
Register of speak I suppose ? Formal, vulgar, technical, casual...
I might be wrong English is not my first language. But that would fits nicely. I understand that as going from casual to formal, for instance.

Alas, the market has repeatedly shown that people will choose the cheapest ticket above all other considerations. Unless somebody else is paying the bill, and those business travelers are also the ones most likely to fork out $20/flight for Internet connectivity.
To get an international job I made a crawler that printed to the command line.

I decided now to put an interface on it and make it a website.

https://jsniffer.com/

It's a personal project, but completely free and without ads, (in the future I want to open source parts of it!).

The idea is to solve the problem that boards have out there that just puts everything as "worldwide" and in the end, it's not available for me as a Brazilian.

The time spent researching job boards it was easier to make a crawler. In the end I got a job.

Right now just want to focus on it being complete as possible, so there are a few bugs and some listing that slips.
So it's not just me. I went from a 5 to a 6 to a 12 mini. My typing is horrible on the 6 or the 12. IDK if it's the screen size or what. It's not about getting used to it; it's been years for me. When I occasionally pick up the old 5, it's instantly easy for me to type again. So it's definitely the phone's fault, not mine. I'm 26 years old. However, the cursor was always impossible to control, no change there.

Also, it's stupid that the new phones don't have headphone jacks, the gestures they used to replace the home button are wack, and the 5 was the perfect size. The sole reason I stopped using it was AT&T dropped support. Usability was more important than CPU/camera/whatever strength.
An open source website with digital skills lessons.

I'm a IT teacher in special education and got frustrated with the available materials and with my students having to log in everywhere to practice.

I'm a pretty bad coder, but this is a lot of fun.
It was not organic, there were fierce fights against the cars in the 70s[0] but unlike in the US where the car aided white people fleeing desegregation, they won. Not so in the US.

I don't think you'll see an organic shift except in some city areas unless there's an intentional change in policy.

Have been working at ntfy.sh for about a year now, and it's a ton of fun: https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy

It's a a simple HTTP-based pub-sub notification service. It allows you to send notifications to your phone or desktop via scripts from any computer, entirely without signup or cost. It's also open source if you want to run your own.

You can use it like this (more in the docs: https://ntfy.sh/docs/):

curl -d "hi from HN" ntfy.sh/mytopic

It's 100% not-for-profit and always-just-for-fun.
Only if you consider the weapons Western governments purchased to either supply to Ukraine or to replace stocks donated to Ukraine to also be extortion on behalf of the MIC.

It's reasonable for SpaceX to want to be paid for providing an essential service for a conflict that seems likely to be a lot more prolonged than initially expected. All this "extortion" thing has done is ensure that the next time someone asks for emergency aid from SpaceX or Tesla, they'll be a lot more conservative in their aid lest they get burned again. No good deed goes unpunished after all.
Interesting. I was testing this with a 4K USB-C monitor connected to MacBook Pro M1. Charging was not working due to "insufficient power".

I am trying to keep up with these spec details for a cable that is often marketed as just USB-C... it feels like an unnecessary cognitive load.

Is it the same Alaska Air which just 20 years ago tried to sell in-flight voice calls on their in-plane phones for few bucks a minute, as any other airline did? Remember handsets in the backrest of the seat in front of you with the credit card slot on the side?
I'd be tempted to try and get as simple a solution as possible. Have you looked at Rumble?

They have a $100 per month option that should more than cover your needs. While they have a 4TB transfer limit I think they have options to extend that. But if your are only just hitting the 2TB limit this might work for a while?

You can always go free if you don't mind some ads but it sounds like that is not an option.

Linus Media Group also has a service https://www.floatplane.com/

Well, and ViaSat is actually available now.

"Available in 2023". We'll see. I mean FSD has been "coming this year" since 2016. And I regularly see people here complaining that they're still waitlisted for their terrestrial Starlink service.

Who knows what ViaSat will have by whenever Starlink actually makes this happen (you know, with the mobile RV service that's "coming soon", and the maritime service, also "coming soon", and now this...).
Try disabling slide to type. I don't use it, so if it's on, it introduces inaccuracies.
I always advise everyone that the first thing they should do on any on-screen-display keyboards is to disable autocorrect and suggestions. This makes it easier to type, avoid the irritation of sub-par corrections and best of all turns of keylogging (when all these "extra" features are enabled (as then their ToS allows them an excuse to store everything you type in their cloud, to "improve their service").
Diaper change and sleepless night with a new born are probably among the easiest things in parenting.

I don't know how you manage to have hobbies or activities on weekends, unless your can engage them in your hobbies. Mine are too young for that.
wait. I really, really don't care about my phone so I never looked that up.

But my 2016 Iphone SE "learned" french. I text in French and English on a 40/60 split.
Auto-correct will feed me results in both language. I assumed that every time I was correcting autocorrect to be able to type a french words, that was going to a small DB somewhere on the phone.

It's not the case? Like.. then where are those french autocorrected words coming from?

And to your original point : why the hell is not name not memorized by now?
> But then who has "really" been an ally since whenever?

All I'm pointing out is that the relationship between US and SA is souring. Simple stuff. Who has "really" bla bla bla I don't know dude, I can't be bothered to fight over semantics.
Thanks for posting this. All this while, I have thought it's my age making me do this.

You might be interested in Snowmed CT, a way to describe medical concepts. It does something rather similar.
For aviation, they'll get connectivity most of the time; it will just flake out occasionally.

The real question is, what are the prices of the services they're competing against? I'll bet those prices are higher.

> What is httm? I like this script as a proof of concept.

See: https://github.com/kimono-koans/httm

> But i still can imagine failure modes, eg. inotify might start acting weird when ZFS remounts the watched directory, OOM killer terminates it without anyone noticing, bash loop go haywire when package manager updates that script (bash is running directly from the file and when it changes during execution, it might just continue running from the same byt offset in completely different script).

I mean, sure, scripts gonna script. You're gonna have to make the POC work for you. But, for instance, I'm not sure half of your issues are problems with a systemd service. I'm not sure one is a problem with a well designed script, which accounts for your particular issues, and a systemd service.

> All these things actualy happened to me in the past. Not to say that if you have multiple datasets in ZFS you cannot inotify wait on all of them at once, so you will have to manage one bash process per dataset. And performance of bash and sudo might not be that awesome.

Yes, you can?

Just re this POC, you can inotifywait a single directory, which contains multiple datasets, and httm will correctly determine and snapshot the correct one upon command. Your real bottleneck here is not sudo or bash. It's the zfs command waiting for a transaction group sync, or arranging for the trans group (or even something else, but its definitely zfs?), to snap.

You can also use `httm -m` to simply identify the dataset and use a channel program and/or a separate script to sync. sudo and bash may not have the performance for your use case, hell, they are composable with everything else?

> So for real reliability you would probably want this to actualy run in ZFS/kernel context...

Yeesh, I'm not sure? Maybe for your/a few specific use cases? Note, inotify (a kernel facility) is your other bottleneck. You're never going to want to watch more than a few/10s of thousand files. The overhead is just going to be too great.

But for most use cases (your documents folder)? Give httm and inotifywait a shot.
There are so many different types of devices that support Netflix, how could they possibly support them all with a controller?

I think that's why he was so hesitant to answer.
The bigger issue was how Egypt unilaterally seized the Suez Canal Company (jointly owned by the British and the French). Egypt then banned Israel from using the Straits of Tiran for shipping, effectively imposing a blockade. Attempting regime change was likely unwise, but all three countries were quite thoroughly provoked by Nasser.
As a Catholic who was studying to be a priest a long time ago (but that didn't end up happening), I've learned that in most tech circles, just mentioning anything even tangential to religion is a quick way to get shunned, or at minimum turn a conversation pretty awkward.

Therefore unless explicitly asked or warranted, it rarely is mentioned.
The US government is paying for services, so is the Ukrainian. As is USAID.

Ukraine wants a $500/month service. Musk/Starlink wants them to be on the $4,500/month service and is complaining that they're "losing money" because they're not.

Oh, and they want to continue being paid for services for terminals that have been destroyed (because, y'know, war).
This is well written, but unfortunately only feels like half an article. I would love to see the author explore a few potential solutions to the problem they talk about (Gopher or Gemini, perhaps?). They also say that this article is the first in a series, so hopefully they do this in future.

Other replies here seem to be from folks who have only ever interviewed for non-senior positions. Signing an NDA for an interview is completely and utterly normal, routine, and banal. It is to be expected any time a candidate is supposed to be senior enough to express informed opinions about non-public projects they may be working on. If I did an interview loop today and didn't sign an NDA at some point then it's more likely than not that I'd decline any offer based on not having got a look at projects I might be working on, which would indicate extreme non-seriousness from the company.

Here are some rules for what to expect, based on every interview NDA I've ever signed: It shouldn't cover anything but non-public info you get during the interview, and it should be stated so simply that you don't need legal review.[0] You should only be asked to sign one before you go into an interview in which you're going to get non-public info - so, probably not before tech screens or behavioral screens. Don't expect to learn the 12 secret ingredients just because you've signed an NDA; it's more to protect any info to which you may be accidentally exposed. And... nope, I can't think of anything else actually. It's that simple.

[0] Admittedly I'd be wary of signing even a simple NDA in an unfamiliar jurisdiction, but that may just be an issue you'd have to absorb when doing cross-jurisdictional job seeking. You might in theory seek out legal advice on what a simple interview NDA should look like and any pitfalls to watch out for that differ from your own familiar jurisdiction. Definitely don't sign anything in a language in which you aren't completely fluent.
$25,000/mo for 350 Mbps and no download limits is extremely cheap compared to Viasat. In the short term Airlines could probably save money setting this up alongside existing services. Though Viasat isn’t going to be able to survive this kind of competition for long.
You can't scroll back and forth through the video to compare different points where he's talking about related themes, you can't text-search to find where or whether he mentioned a particular theme, and when you're reading the transcript, it pauses automatically when you stop to think, so thinking is the default. With the video pausing requires effort, so the default is to not think.

There are things that work better in some sort of video. GUI demos, mechanical movements, some kinds of data visualizations, and facial expressions, for example.
From my experience they learn from the older kids as soon as they start school. At least in my culture. My daughter came home saying "shit what the fuck" (in English, despite English not being the native tongue of the locality) one day. And now she will curse like a pirate when she hurts herself. But she already knows they are words that people attach special meaning to: she avoids them when "not needed", for example. Except when she wants a reaction, which she never gets from me at least.

We don't use many such strong words ourselves, but like with many things she learned on her own in the cultural melting pot that is public school.

I was wondering the same thing. I suspect that Apple has a strong top-down culture that's been set by Steve Jobs, so you likely have a "single-threaded owner" model, regardless of how the org chart really looks. Companies that rely on more distributed models where you have peers that have final say over their product decisions end up with splintering and features that don't align well.

That's not even remotely true, plenty of civilizations and societies have all those things without active/overwhelming religion.

Religion is a means of controlling the masses, the original method. When the promise of a "better afterlife" is not enough, then they invent the warnings of punishment like "hell". Then they invent ways for the wealthy to buy their way in by giving money to the religion. Like anyone knows the "rules" or how anything works, especially if invented before microscopes, telescopes or even glasses.

For instance I fed so much French vocabulary to autocorrect, at this point it's convenient. But some other person in this thread was reporting failing to have autocorrect memorise his/her foreign name.

Ah yeah, for text handling and some item selection stories 3D Touch was the best. For the rest it never really caught on as it was like a right-click, with nothing self-evident and overlapping with the 'hold' interaction.
I guess they just took it out because of the added cost to the panel, but I don't really miss it now.

This advice is great on paper, but hard to impossible to practise. I see some of my older friends can do it with their kids who are 8-12 years old, but there seems to be a very short period of time between being able to actually do something with them until they have their own interests and hobbies.
It's not just you. I'm in my early 20's and I've noticed typing has gotten considerably worse over time. Me and my friends used to be able to text each other without looking at our phones while holding a conversation, but now it's a lot harder. I've had to rely on slide-to-type more and more instead.
Unless you need to go above 60W, a cable does not have any way to influence negotiated charging profile at all.
This is an all negative perspective. There are many that succeed too (Caveat: No, I'm not a forest expert but I do travel). I have seen at least 3 examples of Miyawaki forests that have succeeded close to where I live. I've seen some fairly large and successful afforestation efforts too.

While yes, an extremely unbalanced perspective helps us focus on a rather important issue, I do wish the article were a mite more balanced.
I'd settle for software that could reasonably save and restore its own state. Half the time when I close the laptop lid I have no idea what will happen when I open it again. More often than not some application and its state just disappears into the computational ether.

One of Alan Kay's slogans is "The computer revolution hasn't happened yet" and he's mostly right. What we have are glorified calculators and media players instead of programmable devices that can augment intelligence and it's because the main runtimes/operating systems on these devices are not dynamic enough. Great deal of effort is required to extend and modify them to fit personal use cases. If you're not a programmer then you might as well just give up because the technical barrier is too high. So it's not surprising that most people have a negative view of personal computers and would rather let Apple and friends manage things for them even if that means giving up a great deal of control and privacy to a 3rd party which is mostly interested in making as much money as possible.

The larger implications of all this is that a great deal of potentially innovative use cases are not feasible because the required effort is too high. Every innovative application has to essentially re-invent its own dynamic runtime and shoehorn it into the existing non-dynamic setup.
This fixed it for me. Wow. Been having the exact same thoughts as OP. Thank you.

Weird. I was an engineer for about 13 years, and I was good at it by the accounts of others. I’ve now been a PM for 6 years and most of the engineers I looked up to along the way have either become PMs, EMs, or Architects. All of us are well above average IQ. We didn’t lose any IQ points by changing job roles.

I would suggest that if the basis of your world view is that other people are less intelligent than you due to their job role that you may wish to rethink it. You are placing way too much emphasis on the wrong thing and prejudging your (current and future) work colleagues based on an inaccurate stereotype.
