>71. Now you see this at work with mistakes. You can make mistakes in the work you do and not suffer any consequences. For instance, I could negotiate a contract that might have a phrase that would trigger considerable harm to the company in the event of the occurrence of some set of circumstances. The chances are that no one would ever know. But if something did happen and the company got into trouble, and I had moved on from that job to another, it would never be traced to me. The problem would be that of the guy who presently has responsibility. And it would be his headache. There’s no tracking system in the corporation. Some managers argue that outrunning mistakes is the real meaning of “being on the fast track,” the real key to managerial success. The same lawyer continues: In fact, one way of looking at success patterns in the corporation is that the people who are in high positions have never been in one place long enough for their problems to catch up with them. They outrun their mistakes. That’s why to be successful in a business organization, you have to move quickly. (Location 2013)

It depends on the audience.

First off, it helps I've been 15+ years as an engineer, 5 as an engineering manager, and throughout have the community contributions in the field on my resume. I instantly spotted the problems when I was given an architecture diagram on day 1 and discussed what I would do differently. All that gives credibility.

If it's internal audience, I am brutally honest. The organization needs to know this wasn't happenstance and bad luck that put us where we are now. It was a deliberate series of bad decisions based on a poor engineering and product culture. Now, for better or for worse, we are tasked with paying the debt.

There's a certain class of customers that are sister companies under the same parent. I'm honest with them, too, but go on the offensive. They have abused my team and our company in the past, and unfortunately, we have let them. I am more than happy to fire back and go toe to toe with bad behavior, and at the same time working to fix critical support issues.

For external customers, I've had remarkably good response in listening to their complaints. I am honest in discussing, in deep engineering detail, how the new product will address their problems, where issues might still be, and development timeline. I like to think the credibility portion comes into play here. In the past, customers were just told, "We'll look at it" and "We'll fix it" but nothing was ever planned.
Sure… but Seattle is valuable and desirable because it is Seattle. The only thing you could do to make it like you wish is to make Seattle undesirable.

Think about it like this. What do you think of when you think about Indianapolis, or Kansas City, or Charlotte, etc.? Do those cities seem very desirable to you? Places you want to go and uproot your life to move to?

Probably not. Flat. Boring. Dog shit weather. Car-only infrastructure. (I know I live in a similar city for family/friends reasons)

You can’t solve this problem with less home equity - that’s a contradiction. The great things you enjoy are tied 1-1 inseparably from your home equity. The only way for your home equity to not be as valuable in ten years as it otherwise would be is to get rid of the very things that you enjoy!

Lots router have UPNP disabled or blocked, and thing still work. UPNP isn't great.

First The firewalls are stateful. Client inside your network attempts to connect to some system outside. The firewall adds an entry to the state table with client ip, destination ip, protocol, ports, and so on. If an incoming packet is received by the firewall, the state table is checked. If there is an matching entry for the ips, proto, ports, etc, then the packet is forwarded. If there is no match the packet is dropped or rejected depending on your config. So it is easy to permit packets based on the interface it was received or transmitted on.

Ports can be opened for some incoming traffic pretty much the same with as IPv4 using STUN, TURN, and so on.

Past that, you can do manual port forwards the same way you do with IPv4.
What needs to be regulated in this context? The game is available via Steam and not the Mac App Store. One distributor decided hosting it was worth the reputation, the other did not. Win-win for consumers in that there is more choice than otherwise.
Exactly right.

We're complaining about a problem that was no different in the heyday of IRC.

Ultimately, publicly searchable information is a voluntary act.
I've read the article and frankly I don't have the expertise on LLMs to discuss whether it lands on something worth investigating further. What I do notice in the comments here though, are:

1) People nitpicking about the use of mathematical ideas in a loose manner as if every person trying to understand some phenomenon must only open their mouth if they have a watertight theory or shut their mouth otherwise.

2) Getting hung up on the use of the luigi metaphors rather than using it as the basis for a constructive criticism that actually adds to the conversation in an interesting manner.

3) A general snarky attitude towards people exploring ideas on their own. I get it, you might have some expertise that others lack but you're forgetting that you've already made the thousands of mistakes to get to where you are. Do others the courtesy of not judging when they attempt the same.
Current Bosch dishwashers are packed full of something that absorbs water as it cools. So, that’s solved. As a bonus, there are no heating coils above the top rack to melt plastic stuff.

There is a second side of that coin. Great quote from 1930s Germany:

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Why should old things always die if there is a demand and they are working fine for intended purposes? Let there be a cottage industry selling a single new floppy disk to upgrade flight software for $999, beats buying a new airplane. If we lost ability to make previously commonplace objects in limited quantity when needed, that's not good for our economy, environment or preserving entire cultural legacy of our civilization. Resurgence of vinyl is a great example of what can be accomplished in consumer space. Making floppies available as long as expensive machine need these could do same for enterprise.
I took a few pills of "ORIVeDA Lion's Mane Extract Combination Fruiting Body and Mycelium 2-Pack" every day for a few weeks. According to Reddit it's a well reputed brand and supposed to be high quality. It was expensive. Anyway, I noticed zero effects, positive or otherwise.
Yep, Xbox supports IPv6.

Maybe it's a ricer thing, but I definitely see a difference and I compared my ISP's router (which didn't display CPU load), an openwrt router without hw flow offloading support (horrible), and an UDM SE.

(I don't have an Xbox, I just see posts on my local ISP's forum)
You lost me at GitHub : sure, the public part of it is being crawled, but it's still a platform (and a Microsoft-owned one to boot !), so if you care about the Web or libre software, you should stay the hell out of it, regardless of the sub-feature you use.
imho that story should have ended like:

Nice try cordyceps, not falling for that one. No pancakes for breakfast today!
I noticed this on a music video. Upscaling has done something odd to the faces, which just makes everything look uncanny.

I agree, most of the time it's fine. I agree, people should get the choice of the original vs the upscaled.
> Why would I want any of my devices on my network to have a publicly route-able address?

So that your addressing works normally, and you don't have to deal with the same machine having two different addresses depending where you are (e.g. my photo server's address is the same whether I'm travelling or at home). Even if you only ever access your home network from outside via a VPN (which may well be a good idea), having globally unique addresses eliminates a whole bunch of possible issues - no more weirdness because the coffee shop you're in picked the same private subnet as you did.

> How is IPv6 itself not "gratuitously complicated".

IPv6 is needed for the public internet, there are just too many hosts for anything else. So you either learn IPv6 or IPv6 + another similar, but somewhat different thing.
I found it ironic that OP started complaining about the author’s writing style by urging us to bare it all!
But even Chicago is only bad because they let crime seemingly get out of control and the weather sucks and it is still expensive in the areas you’d want to live in.

I definitely think people should try I just think that the expectations need to be set better. Making $100,000/year and living on Capitol Hill in a 2+ bedroom home is just not going to be realistic without giving up something.

One thing Seattle and similar cities can do to help alleviate this though is to continue to or start to dramatically end the usage of personal auto travel and transit. For example I-90, I-5, and I-405 should all be shut down as they traverse through the area. Probably also tearing down and revitalizing areas where there are more than a couple of lanes in each direction. That’ll give more space throughout the greater Seattle area for people to live and fewer cars means more local shops and more money to spend on them too.
$29 is the sale price, not the BOM price. The entire point of "smart" home devices is to reduce consumer friction around revenue-driving actions; it would be surprising if Amazon were to prioritize making a profit on a $29 device rather than the sales and subscriptions it facilitates.
> You can't blame modern day particle physicists for being born late for the Unicorn chasing party...

1950s, 1950, 1970s, particle physics was a fast-moving field, theory and experiment moved hand in hand. Guided by the intuition of what is mathematically elegant, you propose an extension of current theories, and soon someone in experimental physics with particle colliders publishes results that confirm your theory. Or the other way round: Experimental physicists publish new collider results, and theorists rush in to explain them with new theories.

But you had to be fast, and greedy (in a good way). If you didn't work out and publish the new mathematical expansion of current theories, someone else surely did.

It was also a good time to be a scientist in academia: Population was growing (15% per decade in USA, 10% per decade in Europe), economy was growing, and graduates from a previous (smaller) generation found jobs and careers in the expanding university system, to teach the next (larger) generation of students.

The standard model was competed in the 1970s. Theoretical particle physics was a well-oiled, battle tested fast spinning machine. Ready to continue the mad gold rush of past 30 years. Follow your intuition of mathematical elegance, propose new theories, wait for experiments to confirm them.

But experiments stopped finding traces of new particles. The standard model of particle physics was complete, and apparently all its particles were already discovered. Well, you had to wait a bit longer for: Top quark 1995, tau neutrino 2000, Higgs boson 2012.

The fast machine of theoretical physics kept rotating and spinning out mathematical structures and theories. But experiments were no longer confirming, or even guiding, the development of theory. The mode of work that had worked beautifully up to mid-1970s didn't work anymore. Supersymmetry made predictions, but all turned out to be wrong. String theory was such a complicated mathematical construction, that we don't even know if it makes predictions (in the Popperian sense) at all.

So yes, we can blame particle physics. What first worked for 30 years, hasn't been working anymore for 40 years. You should try something different.
But not if you don't. Large servers tend to have information spread across many different channels and if you want to find out about something that may be in different channels, you have to search individually in each of them and that gets unwieldy fast.
> There is no logic there. firewall configuration is much harder to secure than NAT configuration.

Disagree. Just the XML parsing logic required for uPnP alone is more complex than a basic firewall implementation.
It helps with the "wash in the morning" strategy. Right now I manually wash big pans because they don't fit in the dishwasher when there are also dishes. But I need those pans tomorrow morning as well. If the dishwasher finishes before I need to go to sleep then I can just put those pans in the dishwasher.

The "wash in the afternoon" strategy also becomes more viable. That way I don't have to turn on the dishwasher before 13.00 in order to have it finish before people start cooking. Relatives often visit unannounced, or maybe they change their minds around 16.00 and decide to join for dinner anyway, so I can't always plan for this.

A fast dishesher lets me "batch dishes" (maximize efficiency, save resources) without worry.

Cooking with the dishwasher running is a huge pain. Most of the utensils and chopping boards are in the dishwasher right when you need them for preparing a meal. And when you're done eating, the dishwasher still isn't done so your kitchen and dinner table are left dirty for an hour or two.

Propaganda, eh?

Without fail, whenever this topic arises, there are always people who come to vehemently defend the Christian/European university tradition as the only “true” university. Everything else, and especially institutions older than Bologna, are nitpicked to oblivion.
I assumed it was common because I've run into different Germans who brought up the myth to me, and were surprised I didn't know about it (treating it as common knowledge). But it's certainly possible the people I've known aren't a great representation of the general population.
But who said more or less of what on HackerNews, and in what years, bears no relevance to what is pure functional language. Lisp had mutable everything from the earliest beginning, and that has been maintained in the descendant dialects.

We literally cannot go back to a time in which Lisp was the model of what is purely functional; though it may have been used as an instrument (in restricted ways) for conveying or practically making use of the ideas.

There is something called "pure Lisp". Even such backwaters as the Webster Dictionary of Computing seem to know what this is:

http://www.webster-dictionary.org/definition/Pure+Lisp

"A purely functional language derived from Lisp by excluding any feature which causes side-effects."

I think you will rarely see an entire program written in nothing but pure Lisp. Functions or modules can be designated as being in pure Lisp. If the documentation says that a certain module is pure Lisp, that instantly sets certain expectations about what it will be like to interact with.
You can run whisper.cpp (a very solid TTS) on a Raspberry Pi (https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/discussions/166), so I'm pretty sure with a modest CPU upgrade an Echo would be more than capable of running it locally.
What we need is a pure 4 network to be able to talk to a 6 network - that's what it means to be interoperable. Going 6 to 4 is obviously required or otherwise 6 would be a useless protocol to begin with. Anycast routing plus tunnelling is one way to achieve 4 to 6. But the "ngtrans" team didn't accept this a transition plan, nor did they provide an official transition plan for migrating 4 to 6. Basically 6 has been a disaster since the days of IPng and misstep is ignored because they wanted a "clean slate" architecture with a large IP space that nobody really needs.

I'm holding out for a new protocol/architecture to come along and supplant IP by recognising that it needs to be fully interoperable with 4 before it can supersede it.
Hah I did something similar. Took an old Kindle and jailbroke it. It runs a script that will wake it up and refresh every half hour. It pulls down images of my google calendar from a small app I wrote that runs in my k8s cluster. I use shot-scraper, though. Allows me to inject some JS and CSS to prettify it.

Works well. About 1-2mo of battery life. I 3D printed a frame for it with some magnets so I can affix it to the fridge.
Slack, IRC, Matrix are all like this too. All the services really need a "Make public searchable archive" option.
I was trying to find some info about an issue I was seeing on ESLINT the other day... and they told me to join their discord, I couldn't believe it. No, I'm not going to join the discord for a javascript linter.
> I am not trusting them, behind a ipv4 nat inbound connections are by default inaccessible

No they're not. They're by default obscured, but anyone can guess your internal IP and send a packet for it, and the router will happily forward it on unless its firewalling tells it not to. And that's without even even getting into all the extra attack surface opened up by legitimate and not-so-legitimate workarounds for the issues NAT causes.
you're right, its a few scrolls down. It used to be right at the top, so it became a learned behaviour for me to go their site and quickly check the cost of a transfer versus what my bank offers me.
I liked the old floppies. They were great for backing up personal data. They were easy to write on and store in special trays.

I still haven’t discovered a convenient way to handle flash drives. They are to small to write on, and so I have a pile of them tossed in a box, and I have to search through them to find the right one.

Anyone have a good way?
If only I were a mouse. With all the research papers I've seen on HN over the years, I'm pretty sure I could live to be 200.
I'm actually looking for something like this. Discourse pricing seems to be around $100 per month minimum for a group of 500? It's a huge leap from the forums where minimum cost is about $8/month.

> and it has been disquieting to learn what “inherited” is a euphemism for

To be blunt: Islamic invaders to the Indian subcontinent were by and large iconoclastic, at best intolerant and at worst genocidal (by forced conversions, marriages, outright murder, etc) of the native Dharmic (read: Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain) population, and burned down, looted, and deconstructed Hindu and Buddhist places of worship to construct their own mosques on top of said ruins.

The India-Pakistan debacle today is an extension of a nearly millennium-long Hindu-Muslim feud.

The burning of Nalanda University (whether or not it is a 'university' is an orthogonal matter) is another facet in this feud. The decline of Buddhism in the late classical era in the Indian subcontinent—already on a somewhat downhill slope, due to Hinduism co-opting much Buddhist thought, and in general being more popular and accessible than the ascetic demands of monastic Buddhism—was drastically accelerated by the Islamic incursions into the Indian subcontinent.

The Ayodhya mosque-temple riots are another facet of this clash. Western commentators glibly say 'Hindus are anti-Muslim'. The issue in India is so much more nuanced than that; there is bad blood on both sides going back a thousand years. Islam cannot escape from these charges: the religion is fundamentally intolerant of non-Abrahamic ones, especially ones with liberal iconography (like Hinduism and Buddhism).

There is a reason why (most of) the oldest and largest Hindu temples are in South India, which mostly escaped from the period of Muslim rule relatively unscathed. There are (possibly apocryphal) stories about how the idols at several temples (such as the one in Srirangam, Trichy) were relocated to mountain redoubts to prevent them being stolen and melted down by 'the invaders'.

The destruction of Buddhist iconography by Islam (or its followers) continues to this day: the Bamyan Buddhas in Afghanistan were blown up by the Taliban in 2001.

> the conspiracy theory is that all of these leaders across all of these businesses across the country are either incapable of measuring productivity, or they measured it and see that people are more productive when WFH and yet for reasons unknown want to bring them back into the office

I would argue that the real conspiracy theory is that those leaders have a conflict of interest - they have a stake in the real estate game either: by directly holding interest in real estate that will plummet in value if it goes unused, or by receiving kickbacks or other incentives for leasing certain office space.
Oh, I'm doing both - I've left the US for Canada and will actually be doing some remote work in Spain shortly with any luck. I'm immensely excited! But... I'm a software developer and I have the financial freedom to jetset about - most people do not and the people unwalkable cities hurt the most are the working poor which Florida and Texas have a whole bunch of.
THIS. YES.
That sounds like a typical problem of unnecessary complexity to me. I wonder how many over engineered (web) applications could run as a single, efficient process on a single machine.
