It can be programmed using its filesystem (9p) interface, and extended by adding plumber(4) rules.

This line of reasoning always seems to envision a government that is oppressive, but in a very casual way. They're oppressive enough to outlaw certain types of transactions, but lazy enough to allow free access to crypto networks within their country and to not use the public ledger to track down those engaged in illegal activity.

No real world government that I'm aware of, even the liberal democracies, would pass a law that is circumventable by crypto and then ignore it when crypto becomes widely used to bypass that law. They'll restrict access in such a way that they can identify who is who (KYC) or ban the network altogether. This is what we already see happening.

The only way this works to bypass the government is if it remains a relatively uncommon tool. And if it's an uncommon tool, it's not a useful currency.
In the Australian design there’s generally an arrow indicating which direction it goes. It’s embossed to for vision impaired people to be able to feel it too (it also is designed to resonate so if you touch it, you can feel the audio signals so if there are two directions, a vision impaired person knows which direction the sound is saying is safe to cross without needing to see the light signals).

Assuming Google uses gRPC and protobufs extensively, I can only imagine a chaotic polyglot environment where buffers are copied and transformed very often.

I work at a fairly large Python shop using libraries in C. Cost of FFI is non-trivial, memory management and moving data is the usual culprit.

It is true that better systems will make rare but terrible incidents less likely, but in this case, better IoT which is easier to secure and remain self-sovereign over actually expands what people are willing to use IoT for. I imagine there are a swath of compelling avenues ready to be developed if not for the warranted hesitancy of anyone managing the security of these systems. Sure, the security now isn't terrible or problematic if used right, but when the security is robust, simple and dead-easy then the innovation up top gets uncapped.

The "soap opera" effect is mainly a perceptual response to the high frame rate itself, even if there are no interpolation artifacts. That's why it has its name: soap operas are typically filmed at 60fps, with cameras that cameras one full frame every 1/60th of a second.

Unfortunately nobody has figured out how to deploy enough storage to make intermittent sources viable. Hence why plans for a renewable grid assume that compressed air, heated sand, or giant flywheels will deliver storage at orders of magnitude better than the existing battery and pumped hydro systems. Australia is not a big success story: Fossil fuels still comprise over 60% of electricity sources for Australia - it's no better than the USA. They are not using renewables for chemical and metallurgy industries. And this is despite Australia having some of the best weather and geography for solar power.

Sweden is the country making the most progress into green hydrogen, but it's still experimental at this point. Sweden also gets 40% of it's electricity from nuclear and 40% from hydropower, too. It's hardly a poster child for the success of wind and solar over nuclear power. Intermittent sources need to be backed by a dispatchable source. For countries that don't have widespread hydroelectric potential like Sweden, intermittent sources are not viable except as a supplement to fossil fuels.

Came here to comment precisely on this: this is a US-made term, and many Latinos and Latinas do not identify themselves with it.
I was going to say that Larry Niven wrote a novel (A World out of Time?) in which the cryogenically frozen were resurrected to perform menial or otherwise undesirable jobs, as a form of indentured servitude. IIRC, trust funds set up by the deceased to pay for their preservation and resurrection had been dissolved on the grounds that they were strangling the economy.

If Bide-a-Wee was not from this novel, a reference would be much appreciated, as my cursory search has not found it.
> Land isn't really a big driver of housing costs

That is completely and totally wrong.

The land cost is BY FAR the biggest driver of housing cost in the California coastal cities.

The proof of this is that buying a house, completely demolishing it, and building a completely new house is not uncommon in California.

That demonstrates that everything except the land has a negative value.
Implicit in your assumption is that nobody in the future will ever have the means and eccentric interest to want to revive these people.

If we could revive an iceman today, we absolutely would have, if not for science than for profit.

On that note, I'm disappointed by how often the future is assumed to have progressed no farther than today's form of capitalism.

That and TFA both speak to the same problem: the unimaginative belief that now is what was, is, and ever shall be.

Because cops are (mostly) above the law.
Sure but the ultimate perpetrator of the violence in these cases is the police. We can solve the swatting problem and other serious problems simultaneously by stopping the police from bursting in to peoples homes with guns blazing and other unnecessary behaviors.

Specifically police need to learn about time, distance, and cover. Arrive on the scene and take cover a safe distance away from the perceived threat. Take time to identify the perceived threat and confirm they are really a danger. Only then should they attempt to deal with the threat if it actually proves to be one. This would have saved the life of Tamir Rice, a harmless child who was shot by a police officer who had not even finished stopping his car when he shot and killed the unarmed 12 year old. This would have saved the life of 22 year old John Crawford III who was shot by a police officer at WalMart. Crawford had picked up an un-packaged BB gun and then continued shopping. Someone misunderstood the situation and called the police. When officers arrived they ignored the lack of distress among other customers which should have been present, and fired shots at Crawford almost immediately upon entering the store.

There are many accounts like this. Police behavior leads to many unnecessary deaths and swatting is only a threat because of police failing to assess a situation firsthand.
This was a really interesting read, thanks! Is it correct that this doesn't take into account any relative motion of the stars, and instead assumes they are fixed points? I assume the relative velocities are not significant since they're pretty close together, but I'm curious if you investigated that.

Surprisingly, OpenBSD does not have a library (neither a public API nor even just routines which are copied project-to-project as is common with OpenBSD utilities and daemons) to handle arithmetic overflow. The closest might be malloc/realloc extensions, like reallocarray, that handle common scenarios where arithmetic overflow is seen.

Valve is paying open source developers to keep Steam Deck playable
I mostly don't agree. Environment variables and the 12 factor app are still the common way to do things, and there is a lot of guidance out there on making it secure. Kubernetes lets you use a secret for the value of an environment variable, and it limits the scope to within the container and those who can access them like Kubernetes admins.

The post strongly recommends storing the secret in a file instead of an environment variable, but it doesn't say anything about unmounting the secrets after initialization. Usually if you have access to one you also have access to the other. It also doesn't mention that you might not have any subprocess, or that if you do have a subprocess the subprocess might need the secrets.

If you're using containers to maintain the principle of least privilege, it's important to carefully examine everything that has access to the container, but having different levels of access within the container beyond what the programming language provides is a niche use case.

The programming language helps you know what the inputs, outputs, and side effects are - so you can be confident a module doesn't actually have access to things it doesn't need, even if writing some code would do it. Things like WebAssembly, vm2, and Deno are helping with that, and all are guarded against environment variable leakage.

Edit: For WebAssembly I looked into WASI and there are some explicit and implicit ways of providing environment variables. Gotta be careful with the implicit ones. There's this that can be used to give a WASM module access only to specific environment variables or none - don't call inherit_env https://docs.rs/wasmtime-wasi/0.21.0/wasmtime_wasi/struct.Wa... There is this that provides a convenience function for creating a WasiCtx that has access to all environment variables though: https://docs.rs/wasmtime-wasi/0.21.0/wasmtime_wasi/struct.Wa...

There is a middle ground between, for example the shooting of Tamir Rice, where the officer shot and killed this innocent 12 year old boy before his police car had even come to a stop, and Uvalde where police stood around for an hour. Police should take time to observe the situation (this could be 30 seconds), take cover a safe distance away (this was not done with Tamir Rice), confirm the threat is real, attempt to de-escalate, and shoot only if necessary. We see in many cases police burst on to the scene and shoot almost immediately, and this leads to unnecessary death.

In places where there are strong gun laws, like Queensland, you have offences relating to the weapon, separate laws for damaging the building and circumstances of aggravation if you do some real damage with risk of loss of life

WEAPONS ACT 1990 - SECT 78 Weapons not to be discharged or operated - a fine- but also usually, a range of offences related to use, possession, storage of the weapon and ammunition

CRIMINAL CODE 1899 - SECT 69
Going armed so as to cause fear
(1) Any person who goes armed in public without lawful occasion in such a manner as to cause fear to any person is guilty of a misdemeanour, and is liable to imprisonment for 2 years.

469 Wilful damage
(1) Any person who wilfully and unlawfully destroys or damages any property is guilty of an offence which, unless otherwise stated, is a misdemeanour, and the person is liable, if no other punishment is provided, to imprisonment for 5 years.

Punishment in special cases
1 Destroying or damaging premises by explosion
If—
(a) the property in question is premises; and
(b) the destruction or damage is caused by an explosion; and
(c) either—
(i) anyone is in or on the premises when the explosion happens; or
(ii) the destruction or damage actually endangers anyone’s life;
the offender commits a crime.
Penalty—
Maximum penalty—life imprisonment.

but what you will find is that this sort of activity rarely happens randomly- usually there is a relationship between the victim and the attacker- so something related to stalking, extortion (demanding money with menaces) etc. And those all carry heavy possible penalties. (5 years, 7 years etc)

The point is that it's not a shortage of land. It's not that California as a whole isn't big enough to accommodate it's population. It's that specific desirable places to live are getting more expensive. You concede that this is true when you narrow your statement with "in the California coastal cities."

The problem is that people want to live in the desirable costal cities. The only way that's going to happen is if the city gets more dense. Cities that allow for easy construction are better able to convert low density housing in desirable areas to high density housing to accommodate the growing demand.
