This is a real cute discussion, though I am outing thought control, for the greatest secret of our time is that we are not alone in our own minds.

A secret cult of power does control us and they are lawless extortionists. They are driving Americans insane from within.

Exactly, and it's not that them are actually an evil cabal in control.

I feel it's just that they act in concert to guard their own selfish desires.

And they could be any of us, there is very few humans that can remain selfless.

I feel it boils down to Prophets or Psychopaths, we get one or the other, unfortunately the latter is way more common.

Except if the research was done for political reasons, like producing a bio weapon. So how are they unrelated from politics? One of the stated political reasons Putin justified the Ukrainian invasion was the destruction of bioweapon facilities. So again how is this unrelated to politics?

China literally allowed unrestricted flights out of China, knowing the pandemic would spread to the World. While at the same testing passengers on domestic flights to prevent local spread. Not Politics?

Also how exactly would you know if the current set of politicians wasn't acting out some pseudo religious motive, like saving the world from environmental Armageddon.
Or why would you dismis the possibility of secret societies,
when there are plenty of examples at political leaders through out history being parts of cults, or making up their own pseudo religious belief systems.
At some point but remember it's not "after 65535 connections per IP" it's "after 65535 connections of the same type to the same IP per IP". That is to saythese NATs where 156.78.92.154 is a single public address on the NATing box:

156.78.92.154:6781<->8.8.8.8:53 UDP
156.78.92.154:6781<->8.8.8.8:53 TCP
156.78.92.154:6781<->8.8.4.4:53 TCP
156.78.92.154:6781<->8.8.4.4:53 UDP

Can all exist simultaneously even though only 1 port is in use and we haven't even started changing the destination IP or ports yet (e.g. 80 and 443 as the destination won't double count and thousands of web servers on different addresses can be accessed via the same source port).

With CG-NAT you can usually support somewhere around 30k customers on the free /24 you get from ARIN for having only IPv6 and needing space to translate in (for new orgs like new ISPs this is assigned immediately out of a reserved block, bypassing the waitlist for existing orgs trying to get free reclaimed space).
I am certainly less dangerous in my F250 than my Bolt (though I've never caused a wreck, so that's hypothetical). Why? Because the godforsaken F250 turns like an aircraft carrier and I drive it slowly and carefully as a result. The real design failure of modern cars, IMO, is the A-pillar width. It creates a huge blind spot, especially on the front left, that you have to very consciously mitigate.

Do they apologize for their own past doings or does one US faction throw another faction under the bus through a half-hearted apology?

It seems most of the US population considers an apology worthless at this point, atleast if it's not attached to financial compensation which is the case for the majority of mistakes or crimes. They are just considered political lip service.

I’m curious why you think it isn’t? On a long enough timescale all good things seem to be acquired by large megacorps for a fuckton of money.

Slack, Linode, Minecraft, the list goes on. Eventually they all make the thing less than it was before under the founders’ vision. At least from my perspective.

It won’t stop me from cheering them on, but I’m still very skeptical of them not being bought out in 10 years.
There is some irony, though, in being in one of the most portable sectors of the economy but complaining about having to live “where the jobs are.” I think a lot more of it has to do with FOMO and wanting to live a particular tech lifestyle rather than needing to live in Washington or California to work in tech.

Other jobs literally have to move to continue their work in a particular industry. When a factory relocates, line workers need to move too. Nurses often have to move, or learn a new job. Sure, you may not have a high status FAANG job, but there’s way more remote work in tech than probably any other industry. I think it’s more an issue of managing expectations and wanting it all, than lack of opportunity to find a job in an area with a decent quality of life

I'd agree they don't know those terms, but people do generally grasp the concepts.

People do present financials at all hands meetings. I've certainly discussed the revenue projections with people, because we all found them hopelessly optimistic. Flat line suddenly increases exponentially for no reason.

5%, mostly cut from Talent Acquisition, Program Management, and Research & Insights. Their initial goal was to grow to 25k in 2025, and they’re at 10k employees. They say they are rebalancing, so they will keep hiring in other sectors.

In the 2008 crisis, they prided themselves that they didn’t fire anyone (So no hiring that year amidst years of hiring dozens or hundreds). This time they played it a little differently.

Does that mean it’s going to be a tough crisis, or is it just Atlassian products which aren’t working in this market?

(Apparently, from one of HN’s favourites in 2010, Atlassian doesn’t even trigger views in 2020ies…)
Actually its not going to be that.

That's when you've got something small that works and the rewrite is a bloated mess of every feature you could dream of.

This is the case where you've got an accumulation of over a decade of technical debt and Chesterton's Fences and someone who has no idea why the code is the way that it is inherits it and decides to rewrite it, and not knowing which constraints are necessary and which aren't they throw away most of them and find out the hard way that the problem isn't actually that simple.

It is almost the inverse of the second system syndrome.

But it is abundantly clear that Elon doesn't even know how to have this conversation.
> 5. There are two proposed models: ad-supported and subscription.

For the record, there are many other possible models. (I realize you may be saying that in this thread there are 2 proposed models, but I want to say this because people here seem to think there are only ever 2 possibilities.)

Some other models include:

1. Patronage ala public radio/TV where you are asked to pay for it, but don't have to. If enough people do, everyone can use it for free. (Wikipedia, one of the top 10 sites on the internet by traffic, works this way.)

2. Donations (probably not viable for most businesses, but sometimes works out)

3. Partially or fully funded by some other business which benefits from people using it. For example, if Apple wanted to start their own search engine without ads, but that only worked with their devices, they could probably figure out a way to do that and they would make money from selling the devices, and not ads on the search engine. (Not that they wouldn't try to have ads, too these days. Ugh.)

4. Pay as you go - instead of a subscription that is recurring even if you don't use the product and that you eventually forget about, you just pay whenever you actually use it and pay for only as much as you use. Not sure it work with a search engine, but nobody's ever tried, so it's hard to say.

5. Government funded. I realize this would rub people the wrong way, but a government search engine funded by tax payer dollars that had no ads could be very useful if done correctly. You just wouldn't want to use it to look up illegal things. (And it doesn't necessarily have to be the Federal government. A state government might benefit from running it, as well.)

Edited to add: For the record, I pay for and use Kagi and love it.

One word: Terminals.

Computers are inherently old at this point, the technology harkens back at least the better part of a century.

The old guard in particular cannot and will not let go of CLIs and esoteric flags and arguments, and will berate anyone who would dare suggest anything concerning a GUI.

To them, the only human interfaces that exist are the keyboard and the monochrome monitor, computing is still grey-on-black (or green/orange-on-black) monospace text and running emacs or vim. The rest of the world disregards them as living relics of ancient history.
Stress, anxiety, excessive worrying, etc all have reasons and causes you could use to justify them. Mindfulness is really just a deeper state of awareness and introspection.

There's a scene in My Big Fat Greek Wedding where the father says that the etymology of all English words can be traced back to Greek[1]. When someone challenges him with the word "Kimono," he pauses for a second, and then concocts a semi-plausible sounding explanation about how the word evolved from a Greek word.

A comedy, but I think it does reflect how a lot of people can be so impressed by their own culture that they end up spinning fictional narratives about it. For example, I was surprised to find that a common myth among Germans was that the USA almost had German become its official language, and German only lost out by a single vote.

Pride in one's culture isn't a bad thing, but too much of it can definitely lead people to believe some very questionable claims.

>In IPv4 NAT is used to make sure your laptop isn't exposed to random script kiddies trying to scan for vulnerable services behind your router. A fun exercise is to plug a RaspberryPi up directly to a public facing IP address and log every packet it receives. Then give those scripts a few services to detect (HTTP server, SSH server, etc.) and look at how the traffic shifts from scanning for ports to scanning for vulnerabilities. Being connected directly to the public internet is a real eye opening experience.

That isn't really feasible with IPV6 though is it? The smallest IPV6 subnet is 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 addresses, so even if you setup a Pi fully open to the world with default passwords the chance of someone scanning it is basically zero. That type of scanning only works because the IPV4 range is so small (& you can efficiently ignore large parts of it like the US DOD space, private addresses, etc).
Cars kill way more people than small planes.
Well, here's an idea. Do you HAVE to have the file as a big json file? How did it end up like that?

When you source the data, can you instead output the overall doc as "part" files that are aligned along subdocument boundaries?

THen you don't have to solve that "find the subdocument terminator" on stream-back.

You are PROBABLY building the json doc via some DB dump, so just change the code that dumps the data.

If you need to reconstruct it as a single json doc for some reason, it is about as trivial as it gets to reconstruct the data as a single document.

Or programattically, a "file" object that just does the reconstruction on the fly from the source part files as it is read, that should be relatively trivial in lots of languages.

> It is a tremendous advantage to explore your organization fully.

No, generally speaking it's really not.

That takes time and effort away from the job you're actually getting evaluated on, and if your workplace is at all competitive (as most are), it's an incredibly easy way to waste your time and not get promoted.

Is it interesting? Sure. Is it to your advantage in that workplace? Almost never.

The main situation where it's a smart thing to do is when you intend to start your own company (or franchise in certain industries) and you're trying to learn as many best practices as possible. But then you're treating your employment as school, rather than looking for reward or promotion within.
Oh, great! Thank you! I must have missed that in the instructions.
I struggle with maintaining relationships, I sometimes feel like I'm not doing enough, or I'm doing too much. This applies to relationships with my friends and family. Especially my friends, we play this game sometimes, where it feels like they've reached out more often than I have, and it's my turn to reach out, or vice versa.

Do you have suggestions on how I can maintain relationships and feel good about it? Things that have worked for you? Can you share your story?
> 1) Not use the placebo, because even though it seems to work for you, it's been scientifically shown in trials to do nothing

This is the opposite of a placebo. A placebo is a treatment that has been scientifically shown in trials to do something even though it shouldn't. For example, taking a pill or drinking a cup of "medicine" might make your headache feel better even though the pill is just sugar and the medicine is just colored water, and just eating a spoonful of sugar or drinking the same amount of water doesn't have the same effect if you don't believe it's medicine.

We use placebos as the comparison in clinical trials precisely because placebos do something, and we want to show that taking the pill with the actual medicine does more than just taking a sugar pill does. Because of it doesn't--might as well just take the sugar pill.

Placebos do something, and if that something is beneficial then by all means take them. If I can take a sugar pill that makes me feel better I don't really care whether it's psychosomatic or pharmacological. The FDA cares, because they want to encourage real treatments and discourage quackery.
Here's a pretty good document about HDD life expectancy. Depending on the model HDDs can have a fail rate of up to 12% in 3 years.

Wow, Florida is the worst, I wonder why.
I had a teacher who was a ranger in yellowstone park. He would illustrate the danger of straying off the trail with this anecdote: Rangers are not allowed to wear polyester socks (or any socks made with synthetic fibers) because the geothermal activity in the park can change unexpectedly and yesterdays safe meadow could hide an unexpected layer of boiling mud without warning.

Unless you are one of the few people experienced with back-country trekking in active geothermal areas, stick to the roads and trails.

If you are unfortunate enough to be stranded in yellowstone, follow fresh game trails. They will be less likely to lead through boiling mud. On the other hand, the wildlife is unpredictable due to the massive population of stupid tourists.

Yellowstone is dangerous. Stay on the trails and roads unless you know what you are doing. And you probably don't know what you are doing.
IIRC, most of the models were predicated on, how can we sustain THIS small ecology in this spot with this type of fish so as to cause no change. But I'd argue that we change everything, and change isn't a bad thing by itself, and so if we go beyond the models - say, to the point of a cod fishery depletion - it becomes much like decrying an erosive path in a huge desert - fighting for stasis merely for the sake of stasis. The cod no longer congregate in this one area, but they're still out there in others and new species can easily swoop in (and will because the cods' energy sources are still there.)

We'll never be no-impact (at least until the asteroid hits.) But so long as we're not poisoning life away, we're just another niche species on the ocean.

I was fixing some traffic issues in a Cities: Skylines game and had to bulldoze some of the first housing I had laid down. I thought for a moment about the families who had lived there for years, and where they would move to, as I put in wider roads.

These games all represent resident happiness as some function of traffic, crime, garbage, pollution, but I don't think any of them have made an effort to zoom in on particular actions and how they effect the population. Or to represent long-term fulfillment. It would be a very different kind of game to highlight what actions an urban planner takes that have the biggest impact on residents.

Maybe the old newspaper function in Simcity games tried to capture this - or the outraged advisors a bit too, but it's never felt narratively driven to me.

You should not believe the CCP's self serving, feigned morality. If the UN and international norms were so important to the Chinese Communist Party, they would condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which they steadfastly refuse to do. All this despite endlessly lecturing everyone for decades about territorial integrity and internationally recognized borders. Where are those principles now? All of those high-minded thoughts are forgotten the moment it is convenient for the CCP to do so.
