There is an assumption embedded in the Fermi paradox which is that life might originate within an environment already colonized by life. This is not the case in our experience on earth. As far as we know, all life is related which means that all life descends from a common ancestor.

If intelligent life relatively rapidly (say within 1M years) gains the ability to travel at near the speed of light and consume interstellar resources, then new life would never know. There is no case where you could look up and see a galactic empire because if you could see it then it would have been expanding long enough to reach you, and you wouldn’t exist.

So it was operating for four years already when the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami hit Fukushima? That adds some color to the story that I haven’t seen reported.

Context matters. I don't think it's a good idea to treat advice as if it's given as a statement of absolute truth.
Just an speculation; for an x.509/web of trust related vulnerability, I expect the CAs to be a prominent target. There are hundreds of them, and I'm pretty sure there are at least a few of them that use OpenSSL somewhere in their certificate issuing process. Just to avoid DigiNotar-like fiascos revoking certificates en-masse, it probably makes sense to give a head-start to CAs.

As mentioned in another comment, these all sound like product issues, not technology issues. The only one which might cross into a CTO's responsibilities might be the DM lag, depending on the reason.

A sell order has to match a buy order. Apparently, on the 27th, a huge number of people wanted to sell 232,316,600 shares when it was 129. There weren't that many buyers at that price, so they got out somewhere between 129 and 97.

That an interesting technology, and indeed we do have the power to exert some control over the Earth's heat budget, I'm not disputing that. However, it seems plain to me that our capacity for spending the Earth's heat budget will, if left unchecked, always naturally outstrip our capacity to raise the Earth's heat budget (the latter requires long-term thinking, whereas the former only requires greedy short-term thinking). If you have two terms that trend to infinity, as long as one term increases faster than the other, it will dominate the other infinite term.

This is confusing the record for the pattern: the temperature was the lowest in 70 years, but Texas saw very similar storms (and worsening crises, through deregulation) in 1989 and 2011.

It was not built for chromium AFAIK

To quote: https://boringssl.googlesource.com/boringssl/

BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.

Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
As usual, follow the money: I suspect this is a wedge issue because it has been manufactured/amplified as one with the encouragement of the fossil fuel lobby.
Slightly off topic but salutations to a fellow mini split owner, I have a Senville unit in my garage (which has been converted to an office/gym/also still a garage).

I really love the thing and installing it was my first big DIY project in many ways. I did all the work myself and the results have been awesome. It can make my garage absolutely frigid (although it's not quite as good at heating, I've got some work to do around shoring up the existing insulation).
They have two dying products and nothing in the pipeline. Basically it’s over.
Correct, sorry. It's "enforced" by people selling the stock, or, if they're really rich, trying to buy the company and force changes.
Note that the ring maintainer has long since stopped yanking releases.

More importantly, it seems ring has recently hit a long dry spell of getting no new commits at all. There has been some light maintenance work recently, but outside contributions haven't had a credible path into the main branch for a long while now.

TLDR:USGS has built a system that can warn you of earthquakes and Google sent a notification from it to Android phones in the area seconds before the quake struck them.

Does anyone know if any of these next generation filesystems can do raid6 with more flexibility than normal linux software raid?

Say you do a 6x4TB raid 6 array in Linux and get a 16TB virtual drive. Now if you update 4 of the drives to 8TB will still get 16TB with 4x4TB of fully unused space. But 4x4TB is itself enough to do 8TB of raid6 that would get you a total of 24TB usable space where any two drives can fail. Does any of these filesystems just do that automatically and continuously upgrade the capacity as you phase in new disks?
I doubt Miami would slip gracefully into the sea. In reality it would, like other cities in the world below sea level, become suddenly very dependent on pumps, drainage and seawalls. I suspect that may not be quite enough to trigger the drastic action that you suggest.

To be blunt I never thought of this. We can invest in US equities but US government bonds, I never thought of this.

We can buy eurobonds of Turkish Republic if we don't care about liquidity in short to mid term.

However usd is another battle. The government utilizes strange tactics (ranging from making it mandatory to convert export proceeds into TL, offering government backed USD adjusted savings accounts in TL, bringing cash from "unknown" sources (it gets listed as "net faults and misses" under Central Banks balance sheet.) So there is inflation but usd doesn't keep up with it always. There are news that the government is highly active in narcotics trade for personal gain of ministers, so I presume we get some black money there as well. The government also gives away any asset the country has in exchange for dollars to foreigners. Most of our national reserves (around 130 billion USD) was sold covertly to unknown purchasers at an unknown price during erdogan regime, so I guess some of that quasi-stolen reserves is also making a comeback. With all that said, they manage to keep usd exchange rate flat for now. So TIPS would only benefit us if we invest for a long term. Look at usd/try to see how crazy it is. Nothing is predictable now. When you lose the rule of law and your democracy, anything is possible.

We can easily invest in Us and European stock markets through funds.

As long as we pay income tax, we can invest in whatever we want, there are no country restrictions.

The libssl3.so shared object from NSS just has a similar name. This is very confusing, but NSS has been around for a long time, before OpenSSL became the de-facto standard (sort-of), and certainly long before OpenSSL 3, so now we're "stuck" with this confusion.
The only open-source AAC-LC encoder I'm aware of is ffmpeg's, which is pretty awful for quality and featureset. LAME beats the quality of ffmpeg's AAC-LLC encoder at similar bitrates, from what I've tried. That's a condemnation of ffmpeg and not AAC-LC, of course, but why care when libopus is right there and beats AAC-LC in a good percentage of cases.

H.265/HEVC has barely gotten off the ground in adoption due to the double patent pool situation, and VVC seems unlikely to continue. VVC is a fine spec but it's too expensive to ship products with right now.

JPEG-XL was never a good spec, tbh, having looked at the drafts. I don't have a copy of the ISO spec, but the draft I looked at lacked the rigor I would expect out of a modern compression system & file format -- some parts had Pi and trigonometric functions in the equations without precision bounds. It felt academic to me.

You’d need to build a network of consultants who subcontract to you as a fixer.

They sell solutions to customers and when they determine it’s a software fix needed, they call you in.

You will need to bill this out at rates that at first seem absolutely insane - $3k a day perhaps - but when you’re called they’ll gladly pay and you won’t be called all the time.

When not active, do bug hunting in open source or soemthign.
Is this comparable to BEAM for erlang/elixir but for rusticians?

With similar weather patterns? Where are you thinking specifically?

> I would argue that when your power bill can skyrocket suddenly due to poor governance and mismanagement of the grid and you pay 1000s you do not have “cheap” power.

You feel that Texas' regulatory state is making it too difficult to extract natural gas? Because the article seems to me to be saying they need more nat gas. I disagree with subsidising nat gas for unrelated reasons, but I suppose if Texas has regulated to stop gas extraction I agree with you that they should change that.

> People shouldnt be dead because power companies want to make more money.

I'm saying that too, you might have detected.

If you get a big dividend check from Meta for your shares (and by "big" I mean "Bobby Axelrod big") you invest it in your leading opportunity.
Except Texas doesn’t have cheap power. Rather than paying money for peaking power plants that sit idle to handle unusual demand or unexpected failures, regulators instead decided to let power plants charge whatever the market will pay in extreme situations. Net results ends up with occasional brownouts without actual saving anything.

The state with the cheapest electricity is actually Washington where residential customers are paying 8.53¢/kWh. Those dam democrats happen to have a lot of dam cheap green power from all those dams.
These always ignore the possibility that a large % of OSS development happens during working hours at an existing employer. Very few projects are led by devs who decided to do OSS full time without an existing income source.

Some real numbers on this would be nice to have too. If you've seen any research in this area please share.
When I worked in power renewables were a way to add volatility to the grid which you could make a _lot_ of money from. Price swings per MWh are in the tens of thousands. Compared to coal/nuclear/gas you would never see anything like that.

This is another one of John Gruber made up lies that continue to this day.
I had an awesome math instructor while in college named Gamal. I was in a linear algebra class with literally three other students, and at first it was a traditional lecture style class. Soon though Gamal tired of this and said "Look guys, you're going to take turns teaching these lessons". One day it was my turn to teach the lesson. I opened the textbook, started reading out of it and working an example problem on the board.

Gamal raised his hand and started asking questions about the example. I, not understanding the concepts very well, answered by reading out of the book. Gamal said "Daniel, to hell with that book. Don't tell me what the book says. Tell me what YOU know. How can we explain this with only the things we understand?"

Use what you know to figure out what you don't know. Use your own understanding instead of trying to borrow someone else's.

That is a very thoughtful reply pxc, thank you.

Perhaps I am wrong but reading your reply I got the impression you thought I was talking about my son in my original reply? I just wanted to clarify that is not the case, I was talking about an adult family member not my son :)

As for my son it is quite clear he has ADHD and I indeed support him in every way I can. Currently that is not via medication however not because I object to it but because he only has one kidney and all of the doctors we have seen agree that we should try to avoid medication for now. Especially as he does not present hyperactivity. I am sure it is something he will try when older but for now we are trying to help develop tools (both mental and physical) to provide a supportive environment for him and it seems to be working quite well.

Regarding you point on anxiety and ADHD, this is very relevant to my son as he has developed some anxiety over the past few years (moving to a country where he had to learn a new language and of course the pandemic). We certainly notice[d] an increase with inattention when he is anxious. For example when my wife had to travel for work recently his anxiety was much higher. As you mentioned I ensure I do not use dismissive terms when he talks to me about how he is feeling. We have built a good, open way of communicating so when he feels anxious or overwhelmed he knows he can talk to us without issue.

I have to admit I have huge anxieties of my own as to whether I am doing a good job in supporting him but I am trying to do everything I can. Again I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and knowledge.

The title seems inaccurate. The system reports only once an earthquake has begun, it is not predicting an earthquake before it happens. Since the earthquake takes time to propagate, this can give warning ahead of time for those sufficiently far away. However if you were right at the epicenter you would not have advanced notice.

Where I think it's a feature is that instead of them taking from open source and expecting to be able to do that without having to do anything from their side (except demand fixes / updates / features)... AGPL forces them to invest some time and money into sharing any changes they've made and contributing back.

It prevents corps running their own version without sharing those changes back, and it forces corps to think carefully about whether they are willing to invest (their time and effort) in the OSS projects that they consume.

I doubt it would mean that they have to OSS their SaaS offerings. Most likely things are all implemented as little services and the boundary of what they'd have to OSS at most is one of those. More it forces them to be a better and more mindful consumer of OSS.
