I had doubts about the second brain stuff as well, but I am seeing that with the connections I make to my notes using links/backlinks tags while hanging out in the graph view allows me to see connections between notes and helps me with idea generation, so I can see why people call it a second brain. It helps you think about writing in a different way. That has been my experience though.
If you wait to see people fleeing it's way too late to act. Just imaging how many DECADES would be needed to design and built a new "modern polis", adapted to our present and future needs, so renewables, flying logistic, much more rails for heavy packages, future flying "cars" and so far.

Of course this meanwhile the climate change push people a bit northern/southern BUT the need of renewables and low energy consumption do not push MUCH at north/south, so available land prices jumping crazy, new infra need to be built but there is no global agreement nor long consolidated infra in place to follow and so on.

Such change demand AT LEAST a century, so you need to start planning a century before and keep evolving at slow peace correcting anything going wrong on the road. It's not something that can be done like building a new gear in a factory.
> I disagree with your speculation as to what most cryptographers think. Are you basing this on any data you can share?

No, just conversations. I'll admit it's just speculation.

Maybe I should qualify: there's "cryptographic agility" in the protocol sense (a single version of a protocol can accept a wide range of primitives, with the idea being that users can upgrade their primitives as old ones become insecure), and there's "cryptographic agility" in a more abstract design sense: wire formats, etc. should be devolved from the primitives in such a way that the protocol can be switched to secure primitives without requiring unrelated changes, and in a way that doesn't surface any differences to the user.

To my understanding, the first sense of "cryptographic agility" is widely discouraged: we've yet to figure out a really reliable way to provide backwards compatibility without enabling malicious downgrades. The second sense is not something I've heard people use the phrase "cryptographic agility" for, but that's possibly just ignorance on my part. If that is indeed another form of agility, I believe that's widely considered to be good design (and this design is "agile" in that sense, since existing messages do not compromise the security of an upgraded scheme).

Right, but if Docker allows us to package much more complicated applications (as opposed to being forced to simplify) that gives the bugs more room to hide and increases the risk of unforeseen interactions resulting in security bugs in the application.

So what I'm trying to say is that making complicated applications easier to deploy doesn't seem like a win unless you also mitigate the increased security risk that comes with more complicated applications.
The phrasing of the original poster was just fine. You misrepresented what they said and now you're trying to backpedal.

L3Harris smart weapon release system to double Morocco’s F-16 firepower
The article says that governments began “encouraging” curvy streets and dead ends, but that’s understating things. The FDR administration effectively banned grids by requiring curvilinear streets for new developments to qualify for the new federally subsidized 30-year mortgages (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac), aka what we think of now as a “normal mortgage.” It’s hard to compete with a heavy government subsidy, so other forms of financing essentially vanished overnight, and thus no new development would use a grid again.

This is an ingenious idea, one that becomes obvious only in retrospect.

To me this feels like a merger of the ideas in projects like magic-wormhole, Wormhole.app, and the (defunct) Mozilla Send. But then it adds a kind of sharchive twist using the browser as a runtime.

The original paper I saw called it Password Authenticated Key Exchange.
https://www.cs.columbia.edu/~smb/papers/neke.pdf

But I think the general form is now called something like this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password-authenticated_key_agr...

Anyway I’m posting all this not to show my erudition (I’m really stupid about cryptography) but that there’s lots of precedent for this kind of tool and maybe with a few tweaks can even be made standards-compliant. (RFC 8188 seems to contemplate some ideas like this, but the file isn’t “self-expanding”.)

Some obvious issues: sitting on a thumb drive, the file is vulnerable to unlimited attacks. And since the decryptor is in “plaintext” it could be MITMed in a way, since the decryption code can be tampered with, and a browser environment with localhost access can be tricked into doing lots of things, including sending decrypted contents to the attacker. In a SaaS there’s no MITM given transport security, and you can notice you’re getting attacked, or expire links after a number of tries / some amount of time.

But so what; the whole point here is to provide really good security with a different channel.
As a response to the GP, You're making this much too hard. Google's results have become the crap they describes fairly recently - in the last two years, with a specific and noticeable change (and good stuff is even still there if one works hard and the crappiness might have receded a bit lately, even).

Sure, one also needs understanding to get something out of search. But Google when was in it's sweet-spot, it could get a researcher extra knowledge and insight. After all, a researcher needs both a holistic perspective and information they'd know at the start of an exploration.
Phishing is indeed the most glaring vulnerability of this.

While it's very real in theory, I am not concerned in practice.

Stop parroting this nonsense. Crypto isn't one of the best performing assets by any stretch of the imagination. You can't measure the return over an arbitrary period and call that the asset's performance. That's not how it works. An asset's performance needs to be considered in terms of expected return, i.e. the average return over a time period (typically, a day or week) and some measure of risk (such as the standard deviation of returns).

After some experimentation, I ended up doing pizza on a stone that sits atop a steel on my gas grill, with another stone suspended above to reflect heat back down. I find that the steel’s conductivity keeps the stone nice and hot while reducing thermal loss when I place the dough, while the stone provides “softer” more even heat to the pizza to prevent scorching.

> Or in some cases, maybe their egos have them believing it too.

If that's the case, then mission accomplished. It seems that OP's root goal is to avoid the crippling anxiety and stress. Convincing yourself that it's not a problem -- even if it is -- also accomplishes that. Maybe it's not the best, but you're going to get laid off (or not) regardless of whatever anxiety or stress you feel leading up to that point. Better to just not feel the stress in the first place.

Really, though, is it that hard for you to believe that no one could feel confident in their skills such that they believe that they'd still be able to find a job during an economic downturn? It seems a little nonsensical to take that position.
Thanks. The Serious Eats recipe for New York Pizza also does a test of the food processor vs. the stand mixer. The food processor beats the hell out of the mixer.

it's a shame substack continues to get more and more visually bloated. I remember when it first launched, thinking the site looked really clean and simple. i figured it was only a matter of time before the simplicity went away, and it became more like Medium.com (in a bad way). it seems like there is a very predictable model for how a site like this devolves:

- it starts ultra clean, posts have a title and body, maybe (reluctantly) a share link appears somewhere on the page .

- then "modern" looking custom web fonts are added, making elements on the page flicker/move around when the page opens.

- then the entire site adds a sticky header that animates as you scroll up and down.

- then the site is rewritten using some client-side rendering framework that requires javascript to run 'correctly'.

- then a popup modal is added to every single page asking you to subscribe or sign in.

(substack is currently here)

- then "reading time indicators" (e.g. "5 min read") are added to the top of every story

- then "related" stories are inter-spliced throughout the text of the story.

- then it becomes hard or impossible to even find the actual content of the story, as the entire site is engulfed in "related" content
Lots of interesting info here with regard to baking pizza (I'm a huge fan of the Baking Steel). However, if you aren't taking the time to make your dough ahead of time (1-3 days), it's all for naught.

Type inference is good for the writer, not the reader.

Relying on type inference isn’t some rule. Your can find many projects that use it selectively, being explicit where it makes sense. The point of writing code is to make it readable and maintainable. The explicit type isn’t redundant, it’s explicit in presentation, and can be functional, like my example.

I mean, just look at this example. You know the type without having to dig in, do you not? You don’t have to look at the function definition. You know immediately. That’s the point of being explicit, where it makes sense. No guessing, where it makes sense. This is why we have all these type hints now, in a dynamic language: because guessing sucks.

> Street numbers pivot on 5th Ave and increase in each direction from there, so if you know the street number, you know which two avenues it's between. For example, when I lived at 4xx W 45th St, that was between 9th and 10th, which can be deduced from the first number of the address added to 5 (5 + 4 = 9, so the address is West of 9th).

As a logic-minded person used to the Chicago system, this kind of thing drives me nuts. Why on earth would you have a numbered street that doesn't represent its own place in the address numbering scheme? 9th should be at 900 W, 10th at 1000 W, etc. The whole benefit of numbered streets is that you don't have to remember where they are in the grid and you throw half of that value away when the number doesn't match their position in the grid!

One way out of the landlord trap is shared housing.

Early relatively entry-level work is often more effort than challenge. It doesn't grow your skills, but saps your energy, so it's easy to stall. But you need the validation that you're reliable before you get jobs that matter more.

So it's best in early years to focus on personal development, and frankly living closely with strangers is a great way to learn how to deal with people. It's especially helpful when you don't really like each other, but you learn to live together with kindness and openness.

Whether you stay at home or live with strangers, absolutely positively do not accept your current situation. Learn to live with your doubts and get back to school. It only gets harder the longer you wait, and the burden of proving yourself after stalling only grows. Spend more time studying than you would in school, so school becomes a cakewalk when you get back to it. It's not a function of ability so much as diligence.
The axioms can contradict a particular view of reality. The "scientific" axioms assume that objective reality can be observed (they reject solipsism). Solipsistic axioms don't accept this, only the state of one's own mind can be directly observed so it's the only objective reality under these axioms. Religions accept the existence of one or more gods as axioms, usually with some extra axioms declaring the properties of such god(s).

There is one issue though - how many biologists are religious in any way? According to BioMed Central, biology has more atheists than any other field. So, either they are all convinced that religions are false - or they are hardly the most impartial deciders, and are great at making sure any newcomers don’t get different ideas.

Just that fact would make a religious person laugh their head off at taking their perspective. Even from an atheistic perspective, can we rule out the possibility of an echo chamber?

FastCGI reuses the same process for multiple requests. As I understand it wasmtime now supports very fast startup so you can use a new instance per request (avoiding the risk of inter-request bugs) with very low overhead (5 microseconds on their benchmark https://bytecodealliance.org/articles/wasmtime-10-performanc....)

With Firecracker I believe snapshot restore time is around 2-3ms. In my tests wasmtime ran about 50% the speed of native so depending on your workload it might still be faster for short running jobs where the startup time dominates. (Wasmer was maybe 80-90% of native speed but I don't know their startup times.)

* people like right or almost right angles for building construction, and that tends to be reflected in lot lines; acute angles are quite bad

Antenna type and design can make all the difference in the world with regards to performance. Even plain-old 2.4GHz or 5GHz WiFi can work great over large distances provided that you use a parabolic reflector, yagi, log-periodic, etc. Microwave linking is all the rage nowadays, with WISPs popping up all over the place and large commercial operators using microwave links as backhaul between internet-connected sites (usually cell tower sites). But LoRa is still really awesome for low-bandwidth data with minimal antenna considerations, and having it be such a convenient standalone package with some of the boards available is just icing on the cake.
