The almost hilarious situation in Austria is that people usually have (truly) unlimited or high volume contracts. You can pull terra-bytes if data a month, even with tethering. As a result the main way in which contracts differ are speeds.

The fastest 5G contract these days is 500Mbit. Most people are fine with paying for the much cheaper 100Mbit contracts.

So even if 5G has speed benefits, usually I wont notice.

> I think there is a proper use for the verb "utilize": it means "to render useful".

I've never heard of that usage for utilize in my life. In a cursory search, I see that the definition of utilize is "to make use of", which to me sounds the same as "use".
I think part of the problem is that people who are wildly enthusiastic about microservices haven't experienced DLL Hell and don't understand the problems that can happen.

TURN + NAT is always going to be a pain. If IPv6 isn't available to you or all of your friends, going for a VPS seems like the best choice to me. Just don't go for the extremely expensive server providers (i.e. Amazon) if you care about affordability.

This will cost a few dollars per month but it makes hosting UDP services becomes a lot easier.
Residents also enjoy the same safety net. German social benefits do no distinguish on status. The only exception is if your residence permit is tied to your employment, in which case it’s a little more complicated, but only due to the horribly slow immigration office.
> Headers and C style macros are probably the most unfortunate aspects of C (and by extension, C++).

Headers only became a massive problem in C++ because of templates and the unfortunate introduction of the inline keyword (which then unfortunately also slipped into C99, truly the biggest blunder of the C committee next to VLAs).

Typical C headers (including the C stdlib headers) are at most a few hundred lines of function prototypes and struct declarations.

Typical C++ headers on the other hand (include the C++ stdlib headers) contain a mix of declarations and implementation code in template and inline functions and will pull in tens of thousands of lines of code into each compilation unit.

This is also the reason why typical C projects compile orders of magnitude faster than typical C++ projects with a comparable line count and number of source files.

Summary of the article by ChatGPT:

There are a lot of smart people who do research and write papers about what they discover. But sometimes, these papers are not easily available for everyone to read. They might be behind a paywall or take a long time to become available. Well, now the European Union (EU) wants to change that. They want all research papers that are paid for with public money to be available right away for everyone to read, without any fees. They also want to support ways of publishing these papers that don't cost money. This could be a big change for how research papers are shared with the world!

This post conflates a lot of errors. But specifically, I remember the uk chief medical officer being fairly open that the effect of vaccines was stochastic and would only reduce spread on the average, and this was uncertain. The emphasis at the time was very much that vaccines would prevent serious disease and death. Specifically, they wanted to keep people out of hospitals to avoid them being overwhelmed. There was much better evidence for that, and in retrospect vaccination was successful in that.

Like the OP, I was also abused as a child. Both of my parents would verbally and physically abuse me. My mother would constantly yell at me and occasionally hit me. My father would verbally abuse me, beat me with a rolling pan, and sometimes my mother/sister when they stepped in between. We have plenty of broken bones and scarring between us. The beatings only stopped when I was old enough to physically fight back.

Video games and reading were my only solace, so I didn't exactly turn out normal. I'm a male who spends all day indoors, has trust issues, and never really embraced gender norms.

This experience builds a thick layer of skin, but it's still pretty shocking to see how easily parents are persuaded to obtain prescription medication and gender affirming surgery for their teenage kids. Sure, many of them may benefit from the medication/procedure. But for those who make a mistake with their gender transition, they will end up carrying more baggage than me.

Kuznet’s Curve
People love to take this story apart. I always took the message as “stop when you have enough”. It’s a lesson about contentment.

I have enough, and I turned my entrepreneurial spirit towards public good instead of revenue. I take days off when it’s sunny, and reintroduced play into my work. I am back to Paul Graham’s “do things that don’t scale”.

I am dismayed by the amount of greed among people far wealthier than me. Their quest to grow a number beyond rational purposes causes them and a lot of people around them immense grief. We would all benefit if they worked on other goals.

When I worked on femtocells many years ago it was Apple who did their own thing with the signal strength bars, it was a source of massive frustration. They were also the ones least receptive to reports of radio layer issues.

I have to mention the elephant in the room : many carriers push customers to replace their home wired connection with 4G/5G modems.

> surprised that nintendo has not attempted to get dolphin shutdown

My guess is that they care about Switch emulation because it's their current console. A Switch emulator actively harms sales of new units and games - and keep in mind, in comparison to Sony and MS, Nintendo is small. They live and die by their IPs and by selling consoles and games.

Dolphin emulates old hardware, that is not produced anymore. They also don't seem that worried about NDS and 3DS emulation and jailbreaking for that matter.

1. There is no demo site with any reasonable content. hq.git.ht is blank, and has an invalid RSS feed. The videos show vlad.git.ht, which does seem to have some test post on /latest, but…

2. The (strangely written IMO) website copy claims there are comments, but I can’t see them on https://vlad.git.ht/2bbf002723aeec77713a8692db2198d3 . Do I need to click through onto GitHub somehow?

3. How do I publish multiple posts? How can I get an index of posts (in a web browser, not in a RSS reader)? I can see multiple posts in the RSS feed https://vlad.git.ht/feed/rss , but those are not discoverable by humans. The single post page has no link (<link> nor <a>) to the RSS feed.

4. The RSS feeds seem to contain raw HTML from the Gist embedding service, including an advertisement for GitHub and some SVG embedded in EVERY post.

4. Going to https://vlad.git.ht/ gets you a very confusing “Are you vlad? | Then you know what to do | Login →” page. Why is this page targeted at vlad but not vlad’s readers? What should vlad’s readers do when they remove the commit hash from the URL and get to the main page?

5. Why would I pay $4/month for this if I can do it for free with any static site generator and GitHub Pages, and it would have much better quality than this?
Who pays for the Red and Blue teams? Is their salary set by the amount (or lack) saved? What if the difference isn’t great? What hiring bar do you set for them (again, aligned with budget)?

While touring the house we eventually bought, my wife spied a Nest on the wall and said, "Oh, that's one thing bitwize is gonna want to rip out." Hooking your home up to the cloud and depending on cloud services for its operation just strikes me as the king of dumb ideas. You've got private, intimate data flowing to who knows where, cloud malfunctions affecting regular home operations (this has already happened at least once with the Nest), and what's discussed here: here-today, gone-tomorrow support with no recourse once the vendor decides to turn support off.

It's not about "productivity" but paperwork compliance, those old school companies live and die by the certifications and Microsoft has tons of rubber stamping of anything you would want which makes them happy.

Because you are a risk on their network.

Using their equipment they can ensure you are on isolated network if you have no updates applied and can push those updates to you. They can push security configurations, like restricting what office apps can or cannot do. Ensuring AV is configured to their liking. Configure logging so if you ever get owned, they can trace it back from where it came and what it did. They can ensure you are on some proxy server. They can alert you if your host accesses known bad site. They can run background penetration tests if necessary.

And so on.

MS world has the tools to do that. Supporting Linux in that kind of enterprise would need significant additional investment.
I generally find my viewpoint aligned with Mike on most issues, however this is where my opinion starts to diverge:

> “Right, boss, apparently because you keep talking about freedom, a large group of people are taking it to mean they have ‘freedom’ to harass people with slurs and all sorts of abuse. People are leaving the site because of it, and advertisers are pulling ads.”

> That seems bad. Quick, have someone write up some rules against hate speech.

People who use slurs are absolute buffoons, and I have no interest in exposing myself to that sort of garbage (so I choose not to go to spaces where it's prevalent), however once there is a precedent for acceptable/unacceptable speech, and a mechanism where that can be enforced, it's inevitable that the definitions expand over time to things that cause advertisers to get squeamish. The paragraph references that very example.

The end result is that anything that could be an idea exchange becomes part of a monoculture of corporate controlled platforms with fairly consistent bounds on acceptable speech. This gives a small group of organisations outsized influence over public discourse, and the consequences of that are significant enough that it's worth exploring it in depth.

I want to be able to access diverse viewpoints, and to engage or ignore as I see fit. I'm suspicious of anyone who would want to make those decisions for me.

There is also a phenomenon where speech outside these bounds prompts people to themselves call for controls and limits to be put in place. I find that very concerning on a societal scale. It works in the interests of those who want to control speech.

Having outlets for fringe thoughts is a pressure release valve for the global conversation, and I worry that sanitising the whole thing will radicalise the people who are collecting in what few low touch spaces there are left.

Then feel free to pretend that one definition of comprise is "to be made" rather than "to be made of".
Strongly consistent FoundationDB = Likely similar write performance to CockroachDB or TiDB when you avoid secondary indexes.

Secondary indexes in "distributed strongly consistent" systems is what ruins performance: because each index is +1 write to another "index table" (... +1 raft quorum check!).

I don't think FoundationDB has "secondary indexes" to begin with, so one may never run into the +1 write per index issue.. it's just a layer on top of TiKV (equivalent to RocksDB in CockroachDB).
So it is the same as every other addiction, not a surprise.

>but you may be stuck somewhere when a train breaks down or has a collision;

A) This problem does exist in cars. Highways crawl to a standstill when there's an accident.

B) there's no such thing as "train collisions". Its not like cars. They don't get into "accidents". It would be unacceptable for public safety if they did. There are other error modes which cause delays, but its not the same thing as tacitly accepting the deadly consequences of the flow of vehicles being loosely regulated and fully decentralized.

C) I think you're severely undervaluing just how much of a "you problem" it is when your car breaks down vs just how fleeting a problem it is when a train is delayed. The inherent statistical risk of the universe is averaged over everyone. You won't ever be randomly on the hook for 3 digit sums of money at random intervals.

The agency argument really underplays the great freedom of not owning a car. Not owning a car means not being tied to where you are. I can get on a plane and move anywhere on a whim. There's nothing to sell off. I can chase any opportunity I want. I'd rather have two wings than 4 wheels. Hows that for personal agency!
Sure, but is anyone (who has an actual choice) actually choosing to do this? From what I can tell, carriers seem to run a lot of really stupid ads and keep the marketing money faucet flowing for a long time before they finally give up.

I have no idea what Discord is up to. They made a big decision in a weird meeting.
My guess is that they look at application analytics what features are used and how often and see that in 40% of cases the send friend request form is not being submitted and just closed.

I was amazed - in a bad way - when we were looking into getting solar for our home and almost all of the systems relied on some kind of mobile app for their UI, often via a cloud service. These are systems that should have a working life of decades! What mobile or cloud platform today will even still be here and fully compatible in ten years? Want to bet tens of thousands on that?! (Plus of course all the usual "smart" home concerns.)
Data leaks in those companies are not about the security of the data itself but about who can cover themselves in case of a leak.

If you can demonstrate all the compliance, that's an insurance when something happens, regardless of the actual security value it provides which is rarely evaluated anyways.

Companies working this way really aren't tech companies and they don't behave as such.
Have you looked into the glycemic index of what you eat?

The glycemic index (GI) relates to the effect food has on the glucose levels after consumption: high is more severe than low. Vegetables have a low index and sugary foods a high one. Surprisingly white bread and cornflakes also have a high index, and other foods we would not describe as sugary.

Maybe the 'bad food' turns out to have a high index.
Investing? To me it implies stocks. You are not investing in anything, you are consuming goods and services.
