It is going to bite most of the families. Chip shortage impacts new car deliveries which in turn is driving up used car prices. It is a very bad time to upgrade your car if don't want to invest in a brand new car.
Whether or not your business was operated responsibly does not affect your current best marginal decision. Assuming you want your business to survive, this may be to take the author's advice.
You use UDP (as opposed to TCP) when you want to send data but don't need to wait for any response. A good example is streaming metrics when you can afford to miss some by the metrics aggregator or sending out player location data in a multiplayer game - if you miss the player location update in packet N, you'll just get the update in the N+1 packet or later and update their position at that time. This is totally different than TCP where you want the other server to acknowledge they got the packet else you send it again.

So the joke is a play on words. "You may not get it, the udp packet" (because that is how UDP works by design) and "you may not get it, the joke" (due to being unfamiliar with UDP).
Have worked as a PM at a (now defunct) medtech company. A few lessons:

- The distinction between a user and a customer is a big one here. Customer pays
for your stuff. User uses it. These two are usually light years apart in terms of what they want

- Fine balance to build for the user but also keep the customer happy

- Doctors care about their work and don't want to change too many things since it there's a cognitive cost

- Any language that hints at making doctors redundant is an obvious no-no (Here's looking at you , AI)

- Long sales cycles. Be prepared for cash burn

- I'll type more tomorrow when I wake up :)
It depends. My car was manufactured in 2005. It still works perfectly well, and for how I use it (mostly in the country, but I live in the city), it actually gets better mileage than my dad's 2021 Toyota hybrid.

Even if I could afford to buy the 2022 model year of my car, it would still be quite a significant expense and I honestly doubt it would be better for the environment, since I don't drive every day.
He's been writing his weblog since before Twitter existed:

He doesn't need (to use) Twitter to promote anything. If he was willing to sell out, cheaply or not, he would have kept his AWS job.
It's fantastic to read about experiences like this. What a tremendous level of accomplishment and satisfaction they must have felt! The closest thing that I've done to this was in taking 'Nand to Tetris' which is brilliant (https://www.nand2tetris.org).

Yup, Linode does that too, but unless they changed things it still ships with root login + password auth enabled by default.

I honestly only got a couple of those notifications before disabling them.

I was more trying to find an example of how curating a filter bubble can be healthy, but one that wasn't anything to do with Twitter since it's too politically charged for people to think clearly about.
Where in Sweden have you ever heard someone pronounce 'katt' anywhere close to 'cut'? Maybe you misheard someone say 'kut' (baby seal)?
It's not about finding what they "want". It's about figuring out what's the core problem they're facing.
His Cayenne is compliant unless it’s a very old one and doesn’t comply with Euro 4 standard.

Any petrol car that is compliant with Euro 4 and any diesel car that is compliant with Euro 6 is ULEZ compliant.

The big impact would be on diesel vehicles since due to the NOx emissions cap they need Euro 6 which isn’t only stricter but newer so older diesel cars aren’t compliant whilst pretty much every petrol car from 2007 or so would be.

So tradesmen vans and other work vehicles would likely to be severely impacted by this which will increase the prices to the end consumer since they’ll just roll over the daily ULEZ charge.

Your plumber isn’t going to buy a new van especially since the enlargement of ULEZ is going to crash its value they will however pass the ~£20 charge onto you the next time you call them like they already do with the inner London ULEZ.
> I want a small car with an interior comparable with that of the S-class

Yes, building a small car with a large interior remains a challenge...
Don't waste your time like I did. This person does not have a clue.
The government used our taxes to build all the roads. Now they are using our taxes to get drivers off them. What wheeze will they come up with next?
I hear you.

I've been having similar thoughts about my software engineering career. A lot of people who are not in the field might think that it's great being able to work from home, having freedom during the day etc.

In my view though, there's a huge cost to having a job like this. Software engineering jobs tend to be quite alienating, boring to the engineer and uninteresting to other people. My partner (who's in a creative industry) would always have something to say after a day at work. Me? It was pretty much always 'well I was programming most of the day, nothing happened really and I hardly even spoke to anyone'.

I think I'm close to the point of saying fuck it. What I do besides work doesn't change the fact that a day job should be about more than this. It's also quite striking to me that you mentioned careers with impact (climate etc.) as I've been thinking about creating a business around those topics. It's either that or maybe change careers entirely, but I'm sure I won't be a software engineer working like this for much longer.
That interior adds mass and you need a bigger engine to lug it around. That's exactly what needs to go away.
The interior size isn't the problem, it's the interior quality. A Toyota corolla has way more than enough interior space if you remove the rear seats.
This is just an expansion of the existing ULEZ which has had a fairly positive effect since it was introduced in 2016: https://www.london.gov.uk/sites/default/files/air_quality_in...

Doesn't sound like something I've seen in Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions [0]

> As a driver, will you understand what you have to do if you drive past that sign without lots of local knowledge?

The actual criteria would not be useful on a sign. It's not "made before 2006". It's "ULEZ compliant", or "Euro 4 (NOx)". https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/driving/ultra-low-emission-zone/car...

And you can just check your vehicle by license plate: https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/driving/check-your-vehicle/

Shouldn't be a massive challenge without a rear seat wasting space.

But no, I was talking about the quality of the interior and not leg or head room.

It already applies inside the north/south circular, and most people do not own 15 year old cars.
Fwiw I've seen plenty of tradesmen on cargo bikes in my city lately. Also makes it easier to get their tools in, can park right outside the door instead of wasting 15 minutes looking for parking for every customer. Not all tradesmen need a full car of tools for every project.
SSH certificates don’t have an equivalent in Wireguard. They are a much more scalable way of provisioning authentication.

Defense-in-depth is a good idea, but has its limits. I don’t think there’s too much value to layering SSH over Wireguard.

Agreed on SSHGuard type things not being necessary (for authentication protocol). SSH is not special. People can attempt to bruteforce Wireguard too. In fact, the only difference seems to be SSH making the logs (more easily) accessible.

The main downside to SSH is that it allows in default configuration to use insecure passwords for authentication (but this can be disabled). Wireguard is strictly better since passwords are never an option.

Protocol negotiation is another downside, but I think it’s a smaller one. The SSH devs are fairly good about removing insecure schemes from the defaults.
And yet, Ben Collins is not banned. It's almost as if a bunch of trolls can mass report people, and the company will handle the reports according to policy.

The world is probably better off for you not driving there, so doesn't sound like a bad side effect.
Cache invalidation really sounds to me like a math problem. Instead of a Processor, let's say it is a jewel store with limited display space at the front of the store and a lot of inventory in the back, instead of cache misses you have window shoppers and walk-ins that won't engage with sales staff or have limited time so you have lost sales/customer and a catch hit is the opposite of that. At what point so you invalidate a jewel displayed at the front to rotate it with an inventory item? Let's also assume customers buy multiple jewels if the same type and will not buy in less quantities than they desire or wait for staff to get more at the back because you have a competing store across the street.

Is that about right the way I described the problem? If so, this really might be a math problem like the travelling sales man, not exclusive to compsci.

Or a design pattern to make you consider if you actually need to drive all those instances?
The whole point of dealing with climate change and pollution is that we all have to make some compromises. If yours needs to be either paying more to drive in London, or driving a more eco-car, or not driving there at all - that sounds pretty good to me.
ah, too bad that article only has basically one example, and everything else accessible via a few Google searches is complete trash on the subject :(

it seems the standard seems to be somewhere around "ordinary care" and reasonably expecting trespassers

so - to my layman eyes - it seems simple, that if someone slips while crossing my field/forest and it's in its natural state, then I contributed nothing :)

built environment is different (and usually well demarcated), and the problem is probably with backyards and front lawns and other gardens, where people leave out stuff, let's say a saw.
> My point is a very simple one: the DoD is as large as it is because the US has a cultural aversion to accepting welfare.

What do you base this idea on? Wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_social_we... puts per-capita and per-GDP welfare spending high into the list of developed countries,

> We can't make it obvious that we want to build a large, well-educated, and financially stable middle class by dumping money onto it,

More than is already dumped in by the vast welfare programs? Isn't government welfare expenditure greater than the entire defense budget?

> so we build it up by dumping money into the DoD instead and ensuring that just about every (genuinely innovative!) facet of American industry gets a piece of the pie.

> When the DoD is built into the lifeblood of your middle class like this, it is culturally impossible to audit it, because auditing it would reveal the truth so many Americans find embarrassing or politically repugnant: that their livelihoods come from government-driven funding intended to give them decent lives, not the invisible hand of the market.

How so? What kind of thing could an audit say that would cause the population to act in a way the ruling class or the DoD would consider undesirable? And what kind of action are you imagining?

Aren't you just pushing down the caching from HTML and App layers to DB layers, OS layers, Disk layers and CPU caches layers?

Something needs to be cached always, so the DB and Disk need at least cache blocks.
Just checked it. You're right. It is compliant! Colour me surprised. I still stand by my point about wanting something not being enough. He's single and drives a 4.8L vehicle to shopping and golf and back and that's about it. That's the hallmark of conspicuous consumption and I dislike that entirely. There is no outward responsibility at all.

I don't mind costs being passed down. My plumber has an electric van and his rates are far more reasonable than most in the area. Delivery vehicles in this part of London are moving over to electric as well.
Jesus. Don't you think that you're creating a perverse incentive for your friends to hook you up with just about anybody with no regard for whether they're a good fit/decent human being?

It does not matter at a high level but I think the distinction is that there should be only one black box in the proof, which is precisely the thing being reduced. Every other instruction/call used n the algorithm must be known to be computable (in this case, addition).

You may think it's good news, but do you think any petrol or diesel car will be exempt in the long run - even your modest 1l? Do you think electric cars are clean - their manufacture or energy?

What is really occurring is geofencing. In Oxford, you will not be able to travel from one zone to another... Its just a trial... right?

I'm the name of saving the world you are cheering on constraints on movement - we are moving into a virtual existence where the physical becomes an open prison.

Of course, China continue to open coal power stations etc, while in the west we kill our old yet functional power stations and increase the electricity butted we need. The West is committing hari kari. And call it 'good'! Its insanity.

How anyone can cheers these anti-human changes on, and even ask for more, beggars belief. You must be coding the dystopia, work in government, or some such, I think.

I understand that it seems strange to hike on other peoples property. It's not that I have to go looking for privately owned property, it's that I can't imagine ever having to keep track of land ownership when I am out hiking, camping, skiing or picking berries or mushrooms.
All of the TFL ones can be paid at any point up to three days after driving into the zone. That's plenty of time. Others are probably the same.
This article is a worth a read from anyone who is currently operating a VC-funded technology business.

Most people running such businesses in the last few years have been applying lessons and processes well-suited to a much rosier economic environment. Many companies have not yet transitioned their attitudes and processes to suit the current economic environment.

You may feel that this article is absurd, but it legitimately tells you how deep a cut you can make to survive as a company. And the shapes this cut can take.

But a ring roller produces curves of constant radius, and for the railway application it would have to be absolutely enormous.

Interesting, I only ever heard of "speed reading".

No I certainly do not expect any car to be exempt.

I'm cheering this on because they are constraining the future. This is putting pressure on society to adapt slowly and not pushing it out until we fall off a cliff (war). Electric cars are merely another crutch to carry on our bad behaviour as a species. Especially luxury ones.

We need to start reshaping society around less transport. The fossil fuel glut and geopolitical situation around where we get it from is already causing us serious problems and this will only get worse. We need to drive efficiency and renewable energy and energy self sufficiency first.

What you are talking about is not really cache invalidation but a cache algorithm/policy.

Invalidation means to remove a potentially inconsistent element from the cache, like after the original or a part of the inputs of the function were changed. Both problems are important with huge effects, but different.
I imagine car ownership is lower amongst poorer groups in London, but there are still many poor Londoners who drive. Some need it for work (cleaners, carers), others for special requirements, such as those with reduced mobility.

This really is a huge deal.

For gamers: Unreal 5.0 removed the awkward transitions between low and high poly assets, but removing the need for low and high poly assets (called Levels of Detail or 'LOD' s) at all. The engine just works out how many polys are necessary.

But 5.0 didn't do this for foliage - so trees and shrubs and forests look crappy when you zoom out.

5.1 does this for foliage.

So you can now...

I'm not advocating anything. I was discussing NEVs and cars.
Oh I don't care about paying to drive in London, I'd be celebrating if they raised the congestion charge tenfold.

I'm just pointing out that the current vehicle market forces anyone seeking a comfortable, low-NVH car to get something quite large.

EDIT: HN ratelimits prevent me from replying below, so here you go:

> You can drive whatever car you like in London, but you'd have to pay both congestion charge and ULEZ charge

I know! I very happily pay these charges and want them to be vastly higher.

> Alternatively, you might need to be less fussy about what you call "comfortable"

No, why? I didn't work this much to be less fussy about comfort.

I just think it'd be nicer for everyone if there were cars on the market that filled my needs without wasting absurd amounts of space on a rear seat that gets used a couple of times a year.

Regulators should address this by imposing taxes on vehicle size.
My experience is similar - Poznan, Poland - building your own CPU architecture is part of curriculum, most students hate it (and struggle to pass or don’t pass because of it). For people who like it and get it, it’s a perfect experience.
Berkeley which was a major area for co-ops have almost none left. My family was part of a co-op. Challenges:

Often very political - seen as a good thing but can add conflict (ie divesting/not stocking/opposing apartheid Israel while some members are Jewish). No x because y etc - repeat for many topics.

Decision making - both hard and strong feelings internally- can lead to claims around “violent” communication, micro aggression, privilege, disrespect etc etc when there are disagreements. Coops will say a good thing, but I think can wear people out sometimes.

Accountability/performance mgmt. not always, but sometimes difficult to take action in this area - maybe a good thing - goal is to work together.

One interesting variant are employee owned businesses that do not run as co-ops. ESOPS etc. I’m not an expert at all, but I think there are a number of really industrial scale businesses that have this structure successfully.
