The battlefield isn't (only) economic. Whoever deploys more networking gear has visibility into more networks around the world via "accidental" backdoors.

Same goes for IoT devices. They're all just sleeper agents awaiting orders. Be it on price or features, the more commercial appeal the device has, the broader its deployment around the world. There's at least one foreign-produced, internet-connected listening device in every boardroom (and bedroom).

We can insist on pushing Cisco gear so the former exploits are available only to ourselves, but we don't have anything that competes with the latter since we don't actually make anything in this country-- no smart TVs, drones and IoT vibrators that we sell to Chinese consumers. iPhones are about it, and we outsource their production to...China. We make "intellectual property," which is easily stolen and replicated.

They're NIH-adherents so we can't push software on them either-- not only do they subvert ours (Equifax, Grindr almost), they onboard us to theirs (TikTok).

The language of their biggest competitor/adversary is taught in schools. The US curriculum is limited to introductory French or Spanish. Never in my life have I needed to communicate anything in either language that couldn't be conveyed in English. Mandarin or Russian would have been more useful.

They beat us at the spycraft game big-time, but we can't address that in public. So instead we're sowing confusion through vague trade sanctions to disrupt their deployment strategy. Since we never had a coherent plan to begin with, it won't achieve anything. The ultimate disruptor usually ends up being war.

As an individual contributor:

- Among the Slack channels I’ve joined (maybe 30% of the total amount?) I mute most of them, except the ones on which I actively participate.

- I don’t even try to understand/make a mental model of the thousands of pages of “documentation” we have in Confluence

- I usually mark most emails as read (mainly because my company communicates through Slack). I receive ton of automated emails

The trick is to know how to search for stuff. I extensively use Slack to search for past info (e.g., If I encounter an error while working on project X, I first check on Slack to see if someone has dealt with it before). I use Confluence search as well and GitLab search for snippets of code. Most of my colleagues don’t know how to search for stuff and get overwhelmed by the massive amount of docs/messages/notifications/repos we have.
A lot of it, sure. But there are a lot of header only types which do not dynamically allocate memory on their own. For instance <algorithm>, <atomic>, <bitset>, <limits>, <iterator>, <type_traits>, etc.

> Shareholders are generally not interested in furthering national geopolitics.

I don't think that's true. Look at all the corporate action about Ukraine for an example of interest in geopolitics - lots of donations, public statements, etc. And then there's companies actually in Ukraine, or next door - when politics gets unstable enough, contributing to the stability/security of the country over the short term of the company looks like the right move. Evaluating when that point is reached is probably about as contentious as any other decision in politics.

No, that's not the same thing at all. For every other example of currency besides the government's currency, there's a tangible thing backing that unit.

Crypto still doesn't have that, and that matters. To what degree is up for debate, but it does matter. Only governments apparently can get away with the unbacked currency, because they otherwise back it with enforced societal rules (a.k.a. laws).

One of the engineers I was working with on a project was from Transitive (the company that made QuickTransit which became Rosetta) found that their JIT based translator could not deliver significant performance increases for A->A outside of pathological cases, and it was very mature technology at the time.

I think it's a hypothetical. The Mill Computing lectures talk about a variant of this, which is sort of equivalent to an install-time specializer for intermediate code which might work, but that has many problems (for one thing, it breaks upgrades and is very, very problematic for VMs being run on different underlying hosts).

> USD, for example, is only viable because, at the deepest level, trust in it is enforced by US army.

That's a very deep level. At the practical level, USD is viable because court judgements in the US can be settled in dollars (e.g. if somebody is held responsible for killing your goats, you can't demand to be paid back in goats), and US taxes are owed in dollars.

At the deepest level, taxes and courts are maintained by the US government, which I suppose you can say is protected by the US military?

Saying that the high dollar is protected by the US military makes more sense. But the dollar itself is protected by the magnitude and reach of the entire US government, which is only partially maintained and extended by killing people.
> No one bases the value of the US Dollar on how much fees you can collect in exchanging it.

But that's precisely what currencies are largely valued on - the value of transactions conducted in that currency, and the speculative direction of those transactions.

Why do you think the US dollar is a stronger currency than, say, the Pakistani rupee? The US dollar is used to pay for more transactions AND speculators make a directional bet that the Pakistani economy won't be as robust as the US economy or that the US dollar's hegemony won't be threatened in the short-term.

If you have a speculative belief that Ethereum will power the digital economy, it is reasonable to value it at XX price.
I dont see the similar problem I saw before that got me to use use power_scheme=1 to prevent it from going to sleep, but the driver page itself suggests this setting for system noise, etc.

AFAIK most network cards accept that noise exists and use a watchdog, but (if that is even the problem) this one either doesn't or can't recover for some reason.

(With the workaround it still hangs occasionally but not almost every time its been suspended.)
It's comparing like for like. You think tanks are obsolete for reasons XYZ, that all apply to all AFVs.

Yes, the West has been slowly supplying vehicles[1], but most of the St. Javelin success was early during the assault on Kiev where TDF units crushed the Russian spearhead, riding in ATVs, trucks, whatever they could find. Since then they've been getting handmedowns from the West, which is glad to be rid of their MRAPPs due to high operating costs.

[1] The West has been terrible in general about supplying AFVs to Ukraine. Other than old M113 and ancient Soviet gear, they seem hesitant to supply anything remotely modern. Germany has even balked at supplying Leo 1s that have been outdated since the late 60's/early 70's.
For me the main reason to use Podman over Docker is rootless containers. Another one is also that Docker is really not pleasant to install on Linux.

what is this "purpose/ meaning/ calling/ value" thing?

Notably missing from understanding is that advocating for collective ownership of things for the benefit of the masses instead of the 1% is not the same as advocating for gulags and mass graves. It's as ridiculous as advocating for space exploration and people like you retorting "you want Challenger 10, you do, you want schoolteachers dying in agonising explosions".

Salvador Allende became President of Chile in 1970, he presided for 3 years before being taken down by a coup supported by the US government. In the time he was in power, he pushed a socialist program for Chile. Let's see some highlights of his "prisons, labor camps and starving", eh?

- nationalization of large-scale industries (notably copper mining and banking)

- a programme of free milk for children in the schools and in the shanty towns

- payment of pensions and grants was resumed

- increased construction of residential buildings, averaging 55,000/year

- all part-time workers granted rights to social security, and increased payments

- proposed electricity price-increase withdrawn

- bread prices fixed

- 55,000 volunteers sent to the south to teach literacy, and provide medical care

- obligatory minimum wage for workers of all ages was established

- free milk introduced for expectant and nursing mothers and [young] children

- free school-meals established

- rent reductions

- construction of Santiago subway rescheduled to serve working-class neighbourhoods first.

- state-sponsored distribution of free food to neediest citizens.

- minimum taxable income-level was raised

- middle-class Chileans benefited from elimination of taxes on modest incomes and property.

- Exemptions from capital taxes were extended, benefitted 330,000 small proprietors.

- According to one estimate, purchasing power went up by 28% between October 1970 and July 1971.[53]

- The rate of inflation fell from 36.1% in 1970 to 22.1% in 1971

- Average real wages rose by 22.3% during 1971.

- Minimum real wages for blue-collar workers were increased by 56% during the first quarter of 1971
- real minimum wages for white-collar workers were increased by 23%
- Although the acceleration of inflation in 1972 and 1973 eroded part of the initial increase in wages, they still rose (on average) in real terms during the 1971–73 period.

By contrast, the UK today has 27% of children living in poverty[1], and the UK government has voted against free school meals for children, and just tried to push through a tax cut for the rich, and electricity prices have gone up while energy companies are posting record profits, housing construction is down and prices are up so normal citizens are being priced out of the housing market.

I think the end of support for 32-bit applications in 2019 helped, slightly, with the run-up.

Assuming you weren’t already shipping 64-bit applications…which would be weird…updating the application probably required getting everything into a contemporary version of Xcode, cleaning out the cruft, and getting it compiling nice and cleanly. After that, the ARM transition was kind of a “it just works” scenario.

Now, I’m sure Adobe and other high-performance application developers had to do some architecture-specific tweaks, but, gotta think Apple clued them in ahead of time as to what was coming.
They are valuable - but some people with a well-informed opinion like myself, are interested in how valuable they are and how they're going to stay valuable as a core part of a division.

> Since you cannot predict the future I recommend not waiting “for prices to drop”.

This is questionable advice, and biased I guess.

It's quite easy to review historical sale data and see if a person is buying at a peak price. No it likely won't be the only or final peak, but it's a useful indicator.

> optimizing for price won’t make you happy.

On the other hand, not optimizing for price can make you significantly unhappy. Being immobilized due to an upside down mortgage, and stretching monthly finances can be really stressful.
That’s true. I’m very disappointed that crypto has misdirected decentralised systems in to becoming useless hype scams resulting in almost no progress in the last decade.

We have a bunch of hype tech like IPFS but I’m still yet to see a single website using it. Tor onion sites are still the most useful tool there is for censorship proof hosting.

Of course. They were one of the highest volume exchanges, taking a % of every transaction.

My attitude is it (meaning) is entirely sensory, not rationalized, and elicited through action. Bias, then, towards action. There's also no reason to believe that some obscure as-of-yet discovered vocation is the only thing that could grant meaning. Realistically, you could find all sorts of jobs meaningful. If you don't have a peculiar obsession, so be it. I dislike the term purpose.

Dull work with lots of lulls, or lots of passive consumption, or too little social contact won't usually equate to a sense of meaning. And real-world impact of your work won't really matter here, because that is just an abstraction. If you find "flow" in work, you'll feel what people peg as sense of meaning. You might also from receiving gratitude in-person for your help - it feels good. We're social beings. If you've ever tried the self-shaming route of rationalizing that you "ought" to be content with your lot, you'll know from experience that does not stick. That is not how our monkey brains work. If something feels bad, that's symptomatic.

How would you really blackbox a search ranking, though? A website owner can always just search for themselves, and see how their ranking changes.

While I think you're right in ordinary times, this doesn't work during a bubble. You could be totally blocked from moving if your home is worth a fraction what you owe on it, no matter how necessary the move is (job, school district, family).

There’s a Bloomberg article that goes over why this is a bit more nuanced than “gambling with customers funds”. In short, it’s either one or both of poor risk management ( margin traders can’t post collateral and the collateral they had was FTT which went to zero ) and black swan bank runs ( Binance CEO tweets about risky FTT causing bank run causing further drops ). In fact “gambling with customer funds” was by design. Coinbase, to their credit, lost business to the cexes and FTXs for not allowing derivative and defi lending / margin trading. So the customers should have known the fatalistic game they played.

Why does everything in the future-web have a price tag attached? If anything I want less business middlemen on the web period. I don't understand why funding through direct sales will give a better product than funding through advertising:

"And yes, the non-zero price point will mean you have to budget it with your other costs. But faster access to higher quality information will make you much more competitive globally, so you can decide if the investment will be worth it, like any other purchase you make. This will in turn incentivize these products to be even better, a positive feedback loop driven by entirely aligned incentives."

For businesses I think this effect is only driven by competition regardless of revenue model.

I don't know, I didn't play Doom back in the day, but I did play other '90s shooters and as a general rule none of them were resource management games. The difficulty usually arises from multitasking, reflexes, and precision. They're designed so that if you use your entire arsenal situationally you'll never run dry unless you have really poor aim. The resource you do have to manage, although indirectly, is your health, because in each level you can only recharge so much before death is inevitable. DUKE3D was an exception, where on most level it would let you recharge completely at the cost of standing in one place just holding down the use key continuously for one or two minutes.
I don't think LISPers are scratching their head about this. Lisp syntax is optimized towards meta-programming. Generating and processing code is built-in and supported with central mechanisms: READ, EVAL, PRINT, s-expressions, macros, ...

Python is optimized towards simple pseudo-code like imperative OOP. That's easier for most programmers.

You can exploit currency differences to get a discount.

For example, in Australia Apple locks the exchange rate at certain points in order to maintain a consistent price. When the rate moves against say the USD you can import phones at a cheaper price.
