Are you aware that ros service calls are RPCs (not based on pub/sub like actions)? Furthermore, if you use nodelets (http://wiki.ros.org/nodelet) you get zero copy communication between your algorithms. So I actually think that ROS has the facilities to address the needs you describe.

I'd be interested, though, in your suggestions on what a real architecture for robotics looks like in your mind? I still remember the time before ROS, 20 years ago, when each robotics team had to designate a sub-team just for building and maintaining the middleware. That was a waste of time and effort. But you seem to suggest that we go back to that? ROS might not be perfect but it's so much better than anything else that exists. It's also open source and we can all work together to make it better rather than reinventing the wheel each time.
The idea that any of these would normally worry an average young teen is hilarious to me. I grew up during cold war, USSR collapse, multiple wars in the region. At no point was I (or any of my peers to my knowledge) gravely concerned for our future. Because none of us yet had any idea what our normal future is supposed to look like.

The only way these mild horrors get into children heads is, again, through social media.

Now can you also list the ways things are better than in 1980?

Perspective, and context are relevant. People in countries that have always been worse off than the US is today are not as depressed.[1]

> And you say that it's been 18 years and PGP is behind best practices, but you don't describe how those best practices would better solve the package verification challenge that PyPi faces. So in the absence of an actual alternative system why not keep using PGP? Perfect is the enemy of good (IMO!).

This may or may not be satisfying to you, but there is discussion around this, both in this thread, other threads on the internet, and PyPI's own issue tracker. The current plan is to integrate Sigstore[1] into PyPI as a more complete and modern codesigning solution. That work is progressing, and is not in a state that's meant to "replace" PGP. But that's intentional because, as the post states, nobody (to a first approximation) was using these PGP signatures anyways.

Perfect is indeed the enemy of the good; the other enemy of the good is bad things. PGP is bad; the reason I titled the original post "worse than useless" is because it takes a useless security feature (signatures that nobody verifies) and makes them actively dangerous by providing cryptographic margins that weren't even safe 25 years ago.

> But again, I'm not even really feeling strongly that PyPi should use PGP or not. I mostly posted just to say that they should be honest about why they are leaving it, and these seem like bad/misleading stats that for some reason they are hiding behind

Two things should be separated here: there's the PyPI blog post, which is written by the PyPI admins, and there's the "worse than useless" blog post, which was written by me. I am not an admin of PyPI, and it's my independent technical opinion that PGP is bad. I stand by the stats that I've included in my own post, but I do welcome specific critiques of how they're bad or misleading.

The PyPI admins can provide their own rationale, but this is my best understanding: they have known for years that PGP is bad, and have more or less tolerated it as a legacy feature because removing it was a low priority. The post I wrote two days ago was just a "final nudge" towards removing it, since the post's statistics (particularly large numbers of expired keys) refute one of the last defenses for PGP on PyPI.

I'd have thought it was a more modern issue, but let's agree. And that seems in any case perfectly fine for most, or at least for many people. Incidentally, playing with customer money was what FTX has been doing, albeit it was amateur, no official oversight, ...
It's kind of a pain to set up a port for docker compose to talk to.

I'm not convinced it would be all that hard to make it better than docker compose, either.
The request was not valid in a much to obvious way. It is a browser on their platform, a request to delete it should be treated like any request to delete a browser from Android.

It has nothing to do with copyrights. How can you pretend it does? Maybe Curl should be removed, hell why not get rid of the console entirely? Perhaps delete the internet? Maybe we should ban computers? It all starts with electricity?

All those connectors on the TV set, those could be used to access web browsers.

You've made this up. Nothing relevant happened in the years you listed. In fact, for a hundred of years.
>It’s really interesting how the US has managed to get a health system that’s extremely expensive, doesn’t cover everybody, is highly bureaucratic and complex, delivers below average outcomes and has overworked hospital staff.

Well, most of Europe' social welfare systems were wiped out by the end of 1945 and were then rebooted with forethought and precedent of what not to do. The US is an archaic hodgepodge of systems over a 100 years old and were created with no precedent to model from.

People defend this system because their lives and livelihood are tied to it. It is dumb, but without a thing like a world war to wipe the slate clean it is what we have to work with.
You are projecting, again. You view women’s appearance as sexualizing the workplace. And everyone else views it as them… showing up to work. The problem is in your perspective and your assessment of your female colleagues, which so far you’ve only described as being capable of focusing on their tits, their asses, and other sexual displays in the work place. It speaks to your focus and not reality. I work with women all the time and don’t have literally ANY of the problems you describe (and, not coincidentally, I also do not have your troubled view as to what women actually spend their time thinking about and doing)..

I’m not acting like women are soulless blobs. You have determined what you think is an appropriate way for women to dress (weird) and then get angry when women don’t comply with it! Not sure what that has to do with me at all, let alone my view of women, to be perfectly honest.
Medicaid expansion was a key Obamacare pillar, one a number of red states opted out of.

https://www.kff.org/health-costs/issue-brief/rural-hospitals...

> Among rural hospitals in non-expansion states, median operating margins were 2.1 percent during the July 2021-June 2022 period and were -0.7 percent when excluding documented relief funds. In Medicaid expansion states, median operating margins dropped, but remained positive even after excluding documented relief funds.
Sometimes it's fun to use your eyes
Here's a different take on this perspective. It seems to be demonstrably fine that most people occasionally drink some alcohol. But obviously, if everyone was drunk all the time, society would collapse.

Similarly, we could instead say that yeah, maybe TV had some negative effects, but there's no TV outside, at work, at school, at least not usually. And at least for TV, you turn on a channel and watch it. Also there's some pretty good stuff on TV. How many scientists were inspired watching Star Trek as a kid? But I'm sure there were kids who did watch too much TV, and it really did have a negative impact on them. It's just that eventually norms were established yadda yadda that mitigated the severity of it on a societal scale.

With smart phones and social media, maybe we're scaling up the sorts of negative effects that people were worried about with TV, to where it really can have some disturbing effects even on a societal scale. And maybe we really should be worried that we're effectively conditioning children to have shorter attention spans due to the emergent properties of a smartphone with multiple different social media apps firing off notifications with very short form content. And the rate of adoption has been so huge, that if it is the case, we might already be fucked pretty soon.
How much do we want to subsidize people who choose to live in less populated areas?

This will probably come up with roads and utilities at some point, also. Did we build a lot of infrastructure in less dense areas during boom times, similar to how China was recently building, with little regard for the long term sustainability costs? One day some of those currently paved roads in the country may need to be allowed to revert to dirt. If only a few people live on a long road they obviously can't pay for it themselves.

The article does mention things like farming and mining that take place in rural areas, where workers may want nearby health care. Perhaps the companies profiting from these activities should pay these costs?

There's also the idea of subsidizing elderly people who choose to live in the middle of nowhere. I'm not sure how many people would be in favor of that. It's been over a hundred years since we lived in a small town farming economy. These places have been emptying out for a long time.
> Notably, PGP is incapable of providing either of these: you only get key IDs, which are neither strong human identities nor a strong binding to a service. Key IDs might correspond to keys with email (or other identities) in them, but that's (1) not guaranteed, and (2) not a strong proof of identity (since anybody can claim any identity in a PGP key).

Depends. If the distributor maintains a repository of trusted public keys (for example as repositories of Linux distributions do) it gives you a guarantee. As it's said, most of the time you just want to know that the key used to sign a package is not changed. That is the same level of security that SSH offers (first time you connect to a server saves the public key, then give an error if that public key is changed). That is really enough for a package in PyPy, or sign git commits and similar.

We should ask ourself if the complexity of PGP is needed. Probably not, as it's not needed the complexity of x509 certificates, since a simple RSA signature of the package with a public key hosted on a server would be sufficient. But PGP is practical, you have a good tooling built around it, is pretty universal, so why not?
That's not what `go mod tidy` does ...

Ask HN: Open-source event / badge printing software?
I can get a Zebra printer (ZD621), I can get badge blanks. But I can't find an open source (or even paid but not SaaS) software suite that will allow checkin and badge printing at an event.

The ideal workflow would be an app for iPad or even a computer app that you could import an CSV of names and companies into, and then people can search, find their name, and print a badge. The only ones I've found either print to a standard printer (quite clunky and low-quality cut by hand badges) or require massive yearly subscriptions.

If there's nothing out there at all, I may have to try to make one myself.
I have so many rural family members that are like this. And so much of it is because they just actively and brazenly do not want to help anyone. Their individualistic ideology runs so deep that they view people homeless, struggling, or unable to afford healthcare as a moral failing.

To them, the system is working as intended. They're cleaning out the moochers and welfare queens. But by the time they notice they need those services as they get older, it's already too late to do anything about it. Everyone they know then ostracizes them and they end up being the new moral failure of the community.

Both, sorta. There’s a serialization format, and the wire message format with QoS on top of UDP. The message format seems similar to MQTT semantics, but with a few extras.

I think the wire format is fixed, but it’s pretty simple. The serialization layer (CDR) is swappable, but mostly all the same, though one of the most popular implementations uses a slightly non-standard FastCDR. Though from my testing it produces the same bytes and the CDR spec was updated. Maybe they match now.

I wish there was a better implementers guide. DDS might be a decent alternative to MQTT for more generic embedded if so.
It doesn't work very well for people going through VA.

Source: MIL is a former nurse, former-VA claims processor. She found both the level of coverage, and the rules she had to follow to deny it, and the hoops her patients had to jump through to get treatment were utterly insane.

Everyone here likes starting wars. We're very good at starting wars. Starting wars, and support-the-troops pins are cheap. We really don't like paying for the cost of war, though. That's expensive.
Yeah it is a difficult place for YouTube as they would need to enforce rules that say the video maker cannot have sponsored content/ads within the video and I can't see that going down well as I highly doubt YouTube would be in the position to pay similar to cover the ad placement loss.

Most of the major airports in France have train stations built-in. For example, you can fly to Paris airport then take a train directly to Lyon; no need to go into the center of Paris first. It’s really not much different from changing flights.

Exactly what I mentioned above: source formatting is just one of the things you can do with braces and not significant whitespace. [1]

Also, forget a brace in your program, just one, and the compiler can tell.

Forget one indentation? No dice.

And while braces can break things too, editor settings can make it much easier to break things with significant whitespace. [2] [3]

Also, refactoring. [4]

Editor stuff. [5]

This isn't even remotely surprising.

I'm a current PhD student in a coveted top-3 program. We have one of the better stipends in the country, and I've been fully funded by fellowships. My advisor thinks highly of me and isn't abusive. I have a perfect GPA (not that that matters), some publications, and pretty broad technical skills in "hot" area(s). Nevertheless, graduation feels hopelessly out of reach, and I'm getting closer and closer to dropping out.

Academia is full of cronyism, perverse incentives, idea theft. Never mind work-life balance, there is no distinction whatsoever between work and life. There's no "out" if you're in a bad situation; you can't just change jobs like in the real world; your advisor is your "third parent". The incentive structures make it nearly impossible to meaningfully collaborate without some petty authorship conflict arising. It's isolating and seemingly designed to create unhappy, atomized, paranoid, jealous, mean-competitive people. At the end, there is ultimately no reward, materially speaking: all but the very tippy-top academic job tracks are no better.

Academia's clerical heritage is not its only monastic quality. I'm on the wrong side of my 20s and still living in a tiny, crappy apartment with a roommate. At this point I implicitly believe I will never get close to owning a home. That a family is out of the question. That the future is always worse than the present. I've gradually turned into a learned-helplessness "sorry I exist" person, without ever noticing.

Suddenly I see how pathetic that is. I'm ready to change back. I'm ready to be optimistic and ambitious and self-confident again. I'm ready to live a life of improvement, not stagnation. I'm ready to build something meaningful. Not to mention, my eyes are finally opening to how much I could be making in industry if only I hadn't been so proud/idealistic/willfully ignorant... And how much better that kind of salary can make your life.

For the right offer, I am so ready to break free (DMs open (just kidding (but actually though))).
>Combine this with a large influx of uninsured, undocumented migrant workers in rural areas

I'm sorry to be that guy, but extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. Claiming that the failure of rural hospitals is due to illegal immigration, even in part, is an extraordinary claim.

This is "too big to fail" logic applied to hospitals. How do our basic life services always become captured by huge organizations that are poorly run and require bailouts by the government?

Or is "too big to fail" just a ploy by those organizations to entrench themselves even further in our lives?
Government payer reimbursements must go up, but cost controls are necessary as well to drive out a profit motive. Yes, I'm aware that the limited quota on residency slots is also a problem that needs solving for.

Yeah, Medicaid payments aren't great but wouldn't it be better to be reimbursed for at least those pennies instead of no reimbursement at all?

It's not like it's Medicaid that caused those people to appear. Not expanding the coverage isn't reducing the rate of people needing care it's just reducing what will be paid for.

>Sure, there are a few parents who are totally absentee or abusive (say, giving kids drugs) and it can be related to kids with drugs and alcohol problems.

You seem to be arguing for the same thing as I did. The status quo regarding social media is for parents to be "totally absentee" as you put it, while the usual approach to alcohol is "don't let me catch you". It's very rare for parents to take a permissive approach regarding teen alcohol use, especially considering it's illegal to do that.

>But the vast majority of kids with drugs and alcohol problems indeed "have to hide it and jump through hoops to get it".

The vast majority of kids have to jump through hoops to get alcohol, period.

>I am pretty sure plenty of research backs up that an effective way to reduce teen drug use is _not_ to have parents just try to be really strict and punitive about it.

Are you?

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S030646030...

"Results indicate that parental permissibility of alcohol use is a consistent predictor of teen drinking behaviors, which was strongly associated with experienced negative consequences."

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S037687161...

"harsh parental discipline was positively associated with alcohol use in the lower-use group only."

(But if children are in the lower-use group we have already avoided most of the physiological problems!)

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00048674.2010.50...

"Reduced levels of later drinking by adolescents were predicted by: parental modelling, limiting availability of alcohol to the child, disapproval of adolescent drinking, general discipline, parental monitoring, parent–child relationship quality, parental support and general communication."

Of course, the more important factor is not discipline of the child by the parent, but discipline of the parent by the parent. Parental use is the strongest predictor of children's use. So we should also consider that parents who use social media too much may influence their children to do so as well.

The problem with live validation and what to do instead
* sharks and bat rays in the SF bay were dying of a brain fungus that resulted from decreased salinity from the excessive rain we got a couple months ago

* the size and severity of algal blooms are increasing across the world

* this year's crab season was delayed (initially predicted to be nonexistent) because the ocean currents and especially the depth of cold waters changed so drastically from last year

etc., etc. These examples are only from this year. We could also point to starfish dissolving, coral bleaching, etc. which have been going on longer.

Temperature is only an indicator, but there are many other nth-order effects which result from the changes to the climate that also severely disrupt life processes. We can be sure that the ocean won't "die", but if biodiversity continues to tank the way it has been, we will see an accelerating rate of decline in the health of the oceans and consequently the people whose lives and livelihoods depend on the ocean (somewhere around 1 billion people). Knock-on effects are hard to conceptualize but well worth fully exploring.
