> Unconfigured/not activated firewalls usually fail reachable

Local firewalls on devices, maybe, but network firewalls generally are default-deny on untrusted interfaces, and between 0 and 1 interfaces are trusted by default.

Back in 2007 Apple's Airport Extreme Base Station shipped with a firmware that defaulted to allowing all IPv6 traffic, which was quickly pointed out in the tech media and fixed in a patch a few months later. A few of the garbage pile combo modem/router devices distributed by ISPs have had similar issues over the years as well. That's not normal behavior though, when it's observed it's rightfully considered a security flaw and tends to get the kind of attention vendors don't want.

If you know of a mainstream device that would "fail reachable" as you claim here, name and shame please.

> without explicit port forwarding or exposed hosts, NATs fail unreachable.

I work in VoIP and can say from plenty of direct experience this is not true. In the modern work from home era I've had to deal with a lot of the aforementioned garbage pile consumer devices and a recurring issue with some of our clients who had older phones is that their users' home routers did the laziest NAT possible and literally just opened a two way hole on port 5060 (SIP) so as long as the phone was communicating with our server and keeping the pinhole open *ANY* other traffic that hit port 5060 was also sent to the phone, which meant they got all kinds of "phantom calls" from bots looking for unprotected SIP relays.

Newer phones generally have an option to only accept SIP messages from trusted servers, but older ones sometimes don't so when combined with badly implemented NAT that happens.

And yea, obviously that's a consequence of a particularly bad NAT implementation, but your complaint is about an issue that would only occur in a particularly bad IPv6 implementation.
The math at the top seems suspect. In all three cases Alice should have "spent" the same amount of money after 18 years. In the cases of renting you pay more each year and get no equity back, so you should be less able to save and you get none of your money back at the end.

I guess the only difference is whether that 20% downpayment on the loan better spent sitting in a house or in bonds/ETFs.
Some parts??? I can't even access the main page or the Twitter information center.
Thanks! I primarily post on Twitter as @kenshirriff but also post on Mastodon.
Still, an asset that long term tracks average salaries is not bad.
Author here - That's awesome. I admire your grit. Realizing you needed to change and focus more on marketing is a big step in the right direction. We all start out doing the wrong things and making mistakes. The key is learning from them, which it seems, you are willing to do. Best of luck!

Does simplicity equal time? In my mind it doesn't. As for your example I'm a software person and bringing external dependencies feels like adding layers of complexity. Simplicity is minimalist, if I need an external dependency I generally try to extract the actual part I need and understand it and have it my own code to streamline what I need. From my view external dependencies are the epitome of complexity.
Despite the interest, insurance, taxes, and maintenance when paying a mortgage the majority or at least a big part of your payment goes to pay off the house - so after 15 or 20 or 30 years you own a very expensive house. When renting all the money you pay goes down the drain and in 30 years you own nothing.
Thank you for noticing! I'll investigate this error and fix it accordingly ;)
"SimCity should step outside the single-player bubble and embrace the fad of the moment—multiplayer"

Found the problem!
Elon, you can do worse than that. We trust you.
the Chinese examples are legit. Though the example on the far right (冲浪) is a word comprises of two characters, which means surfing only when the word is read as a whole.

Also noted that that is simplified Chinese, used by mainland China, that is, well, simpler than traditional Chinese used in Taiwan and maybe Hong Kong. For instance, 冲浪 is written as 衝浪 in traditional Chinese, which is more complicated and I'm wondering how they handle it.
Most hybrid implementations have managers decide on the 3 days everyone on the team shows up. Team 1 does monday-wednesday, team 2 picks a different 3 days and so on.

> The reality is there is no general “high performance”.

I've heard that claim times and times again.

Often it's from companies believing in "Best Cost IT talent" or whatever the current buzzword is on LinkedIn. Chances are, they never even worked with an SV caliber dev.

We've all seen engineers that are simply running around in circles around others. Just think of John Carmack. If any of these organizations managed to luck out by hiring someone from, let's say Apple or Google, it would most likely change their beliefs that there's no "high performance".

Online SQL fiddle with ChatGPT powered AI assistance
So I guess Twitter _does_ need talented people to stop things from breaking after all
ChatGPT helps to fix errors in SQL code
ChatGPT is limited, will these 6 technological advancements change that?
Interestingly, within a few hours of this post, they seem to have deployed or changed something that has broken most of the site for most users.

This used to happen a long time ago, once in a while with pre-musk twitter, but I don't recall it happening in the past few years.
I'm not saying it's completely impossible, I'm just saying it is, contra OP, more likely that if you are in an office and take a conference room every morning at 10 for 15 minutes that you will be caught, versus working two jobs from home.
I don't think it's "they will work half as hard" but "working a tech desk job is easier". The two thoughts are separate as I read it.
Ah that's fair, I was being too hyperbolic. I suppose what I mean is "a nontrivial contingent [of seniors]."

Also it's worth noting that while your whole network might be at IBM still, I've found leveraging "I know X, who knows Y, who works at / worked at [target company i want to apply to]". They'll usually only be able to give you a "someone I know but haven't worked with" referral (some places call them just a "candidate lead"), but often it's still miles better than putting your resume in the website intake form. Going 2 degrees out in your network graph is almost always a shockingly large number of people / places.
As someone that I think the previous twit sphere would accuse of being right wing adjacent, I’m shocked at the dumpster fire that twitter has become from a content standpoint.

Like.. wokeness was annoying but the trash heap of craziness it is today is 5 steps backward. My feed is nothing but conspiratorial nonsense.

If twitter was “tilted left” before, today it seems to have capsized rightward.
Here we have 220V and we only had to install a new cable and sockets that can handle 20A instead of the usual 10A. Luckily it was a few meters away and the total installation cost was like US$100 (in Argentina). Perhaps they need a 220V line instead of the standard 110V line?

Anyway, our electric installation was quite new, but I've seen some old house that still have a few very old wires.

This is an absurd statement.

Median rent in Seattle for a 1 bedroom is $2k. Using the 40x rule someone who makes $80k could easily afford this, which is a low bar for someone with a moderately decent job.

Locking in a low rate alone has nothing to do with whether owning is more affordable than renting. The rate could be 0% but with a sales price high ala 2021-2022 buying mania and then adding property taxes, insurance, maintenance, and HOA the vast majority of "high" cost metros have and will continue to be much more expensive to buy in than rent in whether rates go up or down.
I tried performance patches for both FO3/FNV and couldn’t fix it for either. I believe it’s because every prefab that Bethesda renders requires a memory access on every frame. So areas with a ton of prefabs like Mr. House’s penthouse or rivet city market are extremely slow.

It checks out given the articles coverage of just how poor the memory latency is once you exceed the tiny 4MB cache.

There are ways to “fix” it but they tend to suck. You can crank the draw distance of objects to the minimum but if it’s not done dynamically then every other scene becomes terribly ugly/broken. You can also install mods that remove some of the clutter but how do you know which clutter to remove? Some of it is aesthetically important and the tone of the scene can change dramatically by randomly removing stuff.
I know people who made good investments in the stock market/crypto that sold at the right time. They are set for life. I also know people who are founders of startups and they grind day in day out but haven't gotten traction (yet?).

Luck. Choices. Right time, right place. Such is life.
> coming out with products that are faster, more private, more decentralized, more this, more that.

This isn't just another Howl-like lament. Quite the opposite!

https://quoteinvestigator.com/2017/06/12/click/

> But in no clear way do these products actually improve on what’s existing in a significant enough way that users may consider a shift

This article is apparently shaming engineers for making products that are being sold, but aren't selling well enough. Don't improve products. Don't be concerned with privacy if consumers are not. Just do whatever is going to sell.

This kind of thinking would have prevented the seat belt. Seat belts weren't going to sell more cars, they were going to raise costs. And why? Only to save human lives! Waste!
I feel similar cognitive dissonance every time I compare myself to people I know outside of tech. Pretty much without exception, they work harder jobs than me or my colleagues with worse hours and for a fraction of the income. I don't think my observation is tied to the housing market, other than it being a vehicle to expedite the wealth gap.

Everyone trying to convince you to be ok with this but no, you have seen it correctly and it is wrong. People can work themselves to death doing jobs that benefit us, and what they receive for it is misery and precarity. Trust your own judgement and don't accept this as a natural, inevitable, or just state.
> Maybe you're trying to do something more advanced than me, or are using a less reliable platform somehow, but generally I find all the "Twitter is so dead" talk being confirmation bias from folks that really want it to fail in light of recent changes.

In my ideal world, Twitter - or something similar - succeeds. I don't care much about the politics of the ownership because that's generally going to be an iffy subject with anything coming from the valley.

But to regularly use it and not see things breaking here and there every day (not even including the times when the API is borked or it's only recommending Elon Tweets in your feed or a person's timeline won't load no matter what, not being able to send a tweet, etc.) ... I have to imagine you're very lucky. There was about 11 hours when people had exceeded their daily tweet quota by trying to send a single tweet. You don't remember stuff like that? It happens multiple times a week in the last few months.

I'm certainly not doing anything advanced. I'm mostly a casual user.
This is one of the reasons a good ERP tech is often someone who started in business and shifted into consultant role.

Areas where domain specific knowledge outweighs the technical aspects, you need to be cross functional.

And overall - the biggest take away for me is that Computer Science is probably not the right degree for most people. Understanding object notation or algorithms, in my experience is interesting but much less useful than understanding business terms or learning use cases.
> and the fact that most people who can leave Tokyo to raise children do (even if it means commuting 2hrs each way every day on a train).

Is that why the population is 14M - 34M in the metro? Bigger than every American city and about the size of all of Canada combined? They just can't get out to where it should by all accounts be cheaper? Is there a fence or something?
Why do you need me to prove this to you?

Here’s my view: https://ibb.co/W2kvvmz

You can “clearly see” that this musk comment is third.
It's hard to beat SimdJSON + io_uring. Other implementations should provide a port of the former or equivalent/faster implementation and too rely on io_uring, with epoll being a viable competitor in limited set of scenarios. I would expect Python being also a bottleneck here with other compiled languages (besides C/C++) that have good interop and ability to write vectorized code having an upper hand like Rust, C# or Go.

I used to dig ditches in places where excavators couldn't go for a living, and I'm familiar with the contract rate differences for that type of labor and equipment.

My point is that the disparity is such a chasm that my brain can't reconcile it. We aren't talking about ditch digging, we are talking about serving food to the people of Seattle. All the software engineers in Seattle, in my experience, love to frequent dining establishments. Their quality of life is dependent on the labor of people serving them. There's no way I can accept the disparity as "just the way it is." My gut can't take it.
Muskops!
This looks quite promising, just what is needed after Kusk paused development a few weeks ago.

Moving from numeric ID to UUID in existing app
That’s normal. I bought my first house in the early 1990s. Saving the down payment was tough. I lived in a real shithole apartment, anything nice and the rent ate up too much of my cash flow. And I I had to pay PMI, but the monthly payment was still cheaper than rent.

This post makes a good point, in particular that one generation’s house price appreciation (really, land rent and price appreciation) is the next generation’s shelter price inflation. And the obvious solution is higher land taxes and more incentives to construct new housing.

However, I would add nuance that using the word “investment” as synonymous with price appreciation is only partly true because any investment’s value comes from capital gains or dividends. And I dispute his claim that if buying is a good investment, then prices need to increase faster than inflation (although expected rent growth due to supply restrictions may be priced in in the example of Littleton, CO). A house can be both affordable to all generations and a good investment, just as a laptop or a pickup truck or any capital good can be both broadly available and a good investment. You buy a car instead of leasing it because it is a good investment even though it depreciates and even though there is a healthy market of auto leases. Kevin Erdmann has a clear-eyed series on the role of landlords even in a healthy housing market, which is much like the role of lessors of any capital good https://www.mercatus.org/economic-insights/expert-commentary...

The key variable that he is forgetting in the nytimes rent calculator is rent inflation. In almost any market, there will be rental investors, and that’s a good thing; otherwise you would not be able to rent a house. What really matters for the long-term health of the country is making sure that rents don’t increase (YIMBYism) and turning inevitable central city rents into public goods (Georgism).
First let me say that rent and real estate should go way down and Seattle should make it easier for people like your friend to live there.

Second, there is no direct connection between work done, value added + money earned. The connection is a loose correlation at best.

As an example, you can do back-breaking labour painstakingly paving roads with one cobblestone at a time, 16 hours a day, for decades. Or you can write a dozen lines of code that speeds up a critical business process. One is super hard and makes little difference in the world, and thus pays almost nothing. The other is easy if you know how and adds enough value that there's scope for lots of money to be involved.

Easily fixed with a tax system:

1) first home tax-free - the address you submit your yearly taxes on. Incentivize people to own at least one home.

2) second property you pay taxes for both homes now - no more tax free benefit since you are able to afford more than one place.

3) more than 2 properties you pay taxes for all of them times some factor 0.05*N houses. Fudge around with the factor to allow more supply for all the first home buyers since now it it is more expensive to hold multiple properties.

Not sure if this falls under Georgism.
I don't "consume content". I read, watch, and listen to a wide variety of things, though, and highly recommend that practice.

My apologies. "Consume content" has become a pet peeve of mine. It's a dehumanizing and overly reductionist phrase, and isn't even technically correct (the best kind of correct).
> It's a complete non-issue that nobody really cares about.

Huh. IMHO it's the single most desirable feature, and the only reason I care about it at all.

If you're approaching this from the home networking point of view, than I suppose I agree: even the most complex home network is just too simple for anything like this to matter much.

As the network gets bigger, that sweet sweet global routability starts to make
a lot of things a lot simpler... I'm lucky to have worked on an enormous deployment of V6-only servers, and it's downright magical in comparison to anything of comparable scale I've seen before or since.

But yes, my home network is three NAT'd /24's because I'm too lazy to figure out how to make prefix delegation work...
A walkable city, then.
This ascribes morality to an amoral thing like population growth and markets. Buying anything is an investment. That’s what investment means - you take resources and invest them. The growth in value of an investment in a market is an artifact of supply and demand. Not all homes rise in value, some decline, and many are fairly stable over time. Likewise rent doesn’t rise steadily everywhere.

The absurdity of the story here is reflected in the person with the rent vs buy calculator trying to see which decision makes the most sense, then feeling a moral outrage that in order to make money the price of the house has to go up. This is like being morally outraged that X-Y is only positive if X is greater than Y. You certainly can be, but what’s the point and why on earth would you talk about that publicly?

By the way, home prices are most easily thought of as a proxy for rent utility. If you can buy a house on debt and rent it for more than the principal risk and debt cost then you’ve got an arbitrage opportunity and prices will go up. Likewise if you can’t and you’ll lose money prices will go down because prices are too high. So complaining about house prices and rent as orthogonal ignores that they’re intertwined.

Mark Twain gave the advice to invest in real estate, they’re not making any more of it. Ignoring that you should never take investing advice from Mark Twain, there’s truth to it. Lack of affordability has to do with scarcity - if everyone is moving to San Francisco and expecting to be able to buy a beautiful Victorian in the Castro, expect the prices and rents to be sky high as there’s only so many and there will never be more than there was effectively 50 years ago. There’s nothing immoral about this. It might feel unfair in some “the universe owes me a beautiful life” way, but it’s actually not unfair. It might feel unfair that someone working for the city who moved into the Castro in 1970 got a great deal on a beautiful house while you live in a SRO in the Tendergroin with 15 roommates working as a senior principal engineer at google, but it’s actually not. It’s just the way things are. If you don’t like it, it’s not the city workers fault for being a nimby that you can’t afford their house, or that the city they live in attracted so many wealthy people and the value of their house exploded.

There simply no morality at play here. There’s no way not make ownership of property not an investment. There’s no entitlement to affordable housing. We can work to make more house available so more people can afford it, but we also probably can’t ensure everyone on earth can move to San Francisco and have a nice house in Noe Valley.
Many (most?) retirement plans involve downsizing from the large home in a (sub)urban area where they raised children and worked for most of their life to a lower-cost area in a lower-cost house. If my SFH is worth $1,000,000 and my retirement plan involves selling and moving to a $500,000 condo, that's $500,000 of money in my retirement account. If politicians implemented a policy that slashed housing prices in half, suddenly I'm going from $500k->$250k, which means I only have $250k from the downsizing. This is a significant impact to my retirement plan.
This is a technical solution to a political problem. The cost of building housing isn't the problem. As the article complains, the problem is housing is an investment and as other commenters have pointed out, our government has pretty much protected this asset class and all of America has the expectation that pricing will continue to go up.

If you flood the market with competitive homes you will destroy housing at an asset class; people understand this so they will block any technological improvement that would make housing cheaper.
Didn't money printing of 2019-2022 show that UBI will cause price inflation, lower velocity of money, and thus cause all prices to inflate across the board?

UBI sounds great, but once fully in play across a population - market forces cause base prices to increase to meet UBI for a near net zero benefit.
Is design and UI the thing you're trying to differentiate your work on?

If not, don't worry about it, just pick a solid option (and honestly, even Bootstrap is still just fine), learn it well, including its limitations, and move forward.

When a replacement comes along that is so compelling you just have to switch, you'll know.

If design and UI is your differentiator, well, you're going to have to live with a lot more experimentation and testing, because the world of design is much more fad and fashion driven.
I know some of the former Twitter engineers, and they were great engineers. I'm sure they built a fairly resilient system.

But at the scale and complexity, eventually you hit an unforeseen error that requires some institutional knowledge to fix, and it's doubtful they still have that, unless the ex-engineers loved the product so much they are willing to take phone calls from the people that are left and point them in the right direction.

I don't think we landed on a time frame. I'm actually surprised it stayed up this long.
