It may have been somewhat more easy to regulate nitrogen oxide emissions in the US, but it isn't primarily a protectionist move and VW was also cheating in the EU.

Underlying U.S. and EU emission standards

The Volkswagen and Audi cars identified as violators had been certified to meet either the US EPA Tier 2 / Bin 5 emissions standard or the California LEV-II ULEV standard. Either standard requires that nitrogen oxide emissions not exceed 0.043 grams per kilometre (0.07 g/mi) for engines at full useful life which is defined as either 190,000 kilometres (120,000 mi) or 240,000 kilometres (150,000 mi) depending on the vehicle and optional certification choices.

This standard for nitrogen oxide emissions is among the most stringent in the world. For comparison, the contemporary European standards known as Euro 5 (2008 "EU5 compliant", 2009[5]–2014 models) and Euro 6 (2015 models) only limit nitrogen oxide emissions to 0.18 grams per kilometre (0.29 g/mi) and 0.08 grams per kilometre (0.13 g/mi) respectively. Defeat devices are forbidden in the EU. The use of a defeat device is subject to a penalty.

A little more, yes. Of course, ideally, I'd love a BSD mobile operating system that runs TUI applications I made myself. But it's a world of compromise, so I compromise.

From my phone (in Minecraft), I run an IPFS node, I communicate over distributed encrypted channels, I share files over BitTorrent, I probe networks, I zap people on nostr, I do all sorts of things the big powers would rather me not be doing, even though they aren't necessarily illegal. I can run literally any sort of software that I like, period, with nobody's permission or even knowledge of the fact. In computing, I take into consideration absolutely nothing that these corporations would prefer that I do. That's pretty cypherpunk, even if I do it all without google explicitly giving me an AMOLED black theme in their operating system. I use one of those too anyway.

A vasectomy is a cheap one time procedure. These drugs are expected to be taken forever. The total cost is tremendously different. Also note that while most private insurers will cover a vasectomy it isn't covered by Medicare.

There has been a lot of consolidation among medical insurance companies, but they don't usually make the ultimate decisions on what to cover. Most large employers (group buyers) are self insured now and so the "insurance" companies no longer actually sell much insurance; mostly they just manage provider networks and administer claims (I am over simplifying a bit).

Employers make coverage decisions based on costs, and the need to attract and retain good employees. Issues like fault or blame don't enter into it; you can't quantify fault or blame in a financial optimization spreadsheet.

The extra costs of morbid obesity are heavily loaded towards older age groups. By that point many of the most expensive patients are no longer even in the labor force, let alone working for the same employer. So, it's tough for employers to justify covering many preventative treatments when the savings only show up many years later.
I wouldn't want to own a company that did that. Or be forced into a relationship or moved out.

I'm not saying Boeing is a bad company. Lots of workers have put their lives into that company and believe in what they build.

I'm just saying putting ownership into the hands of possible victims seems to put more work and responsibility into their laps, not less.

I've been in abusive situations, and hearing philosophies like that worries me.

And the ATRs tend to operate from small airports with short runways and low ILS categories (if at all!) I guess that's a bit more dangerous.

I flew at an airport myself where ATRs operated as well, nothing bigger. ILS was only a low category and only available in one direction. It seems a lot tougher than landing a 737 at a high-facility big airport with runways that can accommodate even widebodies.
How could that be possible if it predates systemd?
BT headphones are certainly less reliable at auto-switching, but that process you're going through isn't the norm for me. I just click on the output menu and select my Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones if I want to use them instead of my airpods. I don't have to pair them every time.

The implementation detail with the infinite document size is surprising! I remember the HTML chatrooms from that era on other sites, and IIRC a lot of them worked via a meta tag that just told the browser to refresh the page every so often.

Everything is defined in language. As a system is able to learn from the corpus of texts, it also builds reasoning to a large extent. For example, GPT4 can guide you through solving a problem like building a flying and crawling drone for inspecting an attic. Or, watering plants. So this goes beyond language, unless I missed your point.
The rumour is that lots of big instance admins are being courted to sign up to work with them, so it seems they're very much still trying to protect their walled garden.
The judge's reasoning brings up an interesting fact about extradition.

1. SBF agreed (voluntarily!) to be extradited from the Bahamas to face ~X charges in the US.

2. After being extradited, he was charged with X + Y charges.

3. He claims that international extradition agreements make this illegal.

4. The judge ruled that, <citing precedent>, international extradition agreements allow the Bahamas to raise a complaint about this - but does not allow SBF to do so [1].

5. US prosecutors have expressed that they are willing to drop the Y charges if the Bahamas raises a complaint in a timely fashion.

6. The Bahamas are incredibly unlikely to raise a complaint on this point.

tl;dr - Expensive lawyers can force government prosecutors to dot all their is and cross their ts, but if they have you dead to rights, you're still screwed. SBF seems really, really screwed.

[1] These parts of extradition treaties are generally very explicitly about the rights of countries, not the rights of individuals.
Additional? Implying I make at least 500k a year already? I wish, maybe I’m in the minority here. I’d be pretty stoked if I made only 500k a year, never mind the additional.

Or honest both to others and yourself.
It's a broad strokes kind of thing, not a universal thing. To be honest I think it has more to do with attitudes towards the language and compiler that tend to be more prevalent in C and C++ circles.

That is, a lot of people expect that the compiler is a tool that must do what they say, not a collaborative partner. Back in the IRC days, people used to join, and be like "Rust won't let me do X. X is obviously okay. How do I get the compiler to shut up and do X?" and the reply would be something like "what if there was another thread? that's what Rust is saving you from" or "Rust's pointer rules are different than the language you're used to."

Whereas folks from scripty backgrounds don't have preconceived notions of "I should be able to do this in this way," and so tend to trust the compiler more. Heck, that's why a lot of them are learning Rust instead of C; they know the compiler can help them out, and C's compilers cannot to the same degree.

Now, that doesn't mean that scripty people don't struggle, or that C and C++ developers don't have their own advantages in learning. Just that I don't think it's straightforward to say who has the overall easier time. It's more of a "having learned something like C or C++ does not universally advantage you."

I have had great luck running ESP32 apps with the Arduino framework. Everything I have tried works. Admittedly I am only using GPIO, SPI bus displays, I2C sensors and displays, WIFI web servers serving REACT apps, WIFI posting to other web services, and ESP-NOW layer 2 direct WIFI connectivity. But this stuff has been flawless.

p.s. the ESP32 dev modules suck and brownout randomly with WIFI usage. I use my own PCB and put fat tantalum caps feeding the modules.
In that case you might enjoy On Moral Fiction by John Gardner. Anna Karenina is his favorite example of a good novel, and he disparages the things you are meh about in Ulysses.

I general I agree with you, but to me Anna Karenina was sooo boring. Maybe I just wasn't ready for it. David Copperfield or anything by Dostoevsky are more for me.

Because when you're a DER (Designated Engineering Representative), you're still getting your paycheck from Boeing, and being a fussy DER is not a fast track to success. I can't lay down too much more specifics, but anecdotally, that's how things go, and not just at Boeing either. Seen it at a lot of suppliers too. You're a "good" DER, or you're on the short list next round of layoffs[1].

DERs have been getting more and more sign off authority on increasingly critical core airworthiness systems, stuff no one would have dreamed of delegating to a DER twenty years ago.

The actual full time agency people, well, depends on how much they're fishing for a corner office. But by and large, they were hardasses, thank God. All three of them. Particularly the EUROCAE Dutch guys. Whew!

But none of this is important as the Boeing culture, which . . ehhhhhhyyyyuuuuuchhh . . could use some improvements. To phrase it one way.

[1] There's always layoffs, good times and bad, because everything is funded contract to contract, week to week. I had a goddamn amazing analog engineer get pink slipped, packed his stuff, and then - after all that - he got called back before he got his boxes in the car. "Whoops! We didn't mean it! Turns out no one else in the universe knows how to do this!". Luckily, he was a canny old gent, and responded with a well-deserved, "Sure. I'll come back in. But it's gonna cost ya".

Love the idea, but I'm wondering if the backend could leverage one of the fediverse technologies?

For example when someone comments or upvotes a page, a post for that page is automatically created on a Lemmy instance, and that will be used to manage the comments and upvotes.

That way you don't need a server backend and you take advantage of a decentralised architecture

One nice thing HN has taught me is that I should be wary of anti-Apple claims like this. Inevitably someone comes along to add context or explain what's actually going on, and 9 times out of 10 it turns out that Apple's solution wasn't unreasonable at all.

Which isn't to say that things like the 30% app store cut is entirely defensible, though you can certainly make some halfway plausible claims in that direction (based mostly on how retail works, especially at the time iPhones were invented). Or sideloading. There are legitimate gripes. But a lot of crap spewed regularly on HN turns out to be exactly that, crap.
I wouldn't say it's on purpose. Ford has always been a marginal (financially) automaker, and while the US gov is providing substantial support (>$10B) via battery and vehicle subsidies, it will be a painful transition based on the financials and balance sheet. Too much financial and institutional debt considering the swiftness at which they must transform. Tesla has a lot of room in their margin (and also generous subsidies due to US component content) to eat price reductions due to rising interest rates, Ford does not while also trying to retool their entire manufacturing supply chain.

TLDR Efficient, nimble innovators can kick the can, laggard incumbents cannot.
That sounds like an argument FOR having prefab homes from a company like Sears that's trying to build a long-lasting brand. Maybe there is opportunity for a different kind of Apple Homepod.
If home materials prices tracked inflation - you should be able to buy the same kit for less $60k today.

The model 115 would be ~$33k.

You can hardly get a plastic shed for that price.

Looking at this list I'm struck by the separation between narrowbody jets which generally make shorter flights (Embraer, 737, A318-A321) and widebody jets which generally make longer flights (A330, 767, 777).

The exceptions of course are 737 MAX (we all know why) and ATRs (which I'm not familiar with -- anyone know why they have a high fatal crash rate?)

> 1. SBF agreed to be extradited from the Bahamas to face ~X charges in the US.

Would it be more accurate to say that the Bahamas agreed to extradite SBF? If not, then it doesn't make sense why the Bahamas would need to complain about the additional charges instead of SBF if they weren't involved in the agreement.

Although FWIW SBF is the last person who should be complaining about having the rug pulled from under them.

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.

Protocols should encode "legal preambles" in their handshakes that forbid unilateral extensions, eg.

> SYN
< SYN ACK

or

> GET /
< HTTP/2 200

could become,

> PROTOCOL/v1 HELLO
< PROTOCOL/v1 ACK
> I-AGREE-TO-TERMS https://open-protocols-or-something.org/protocol-name/v1
< I-AGREE-TO-TERMS https://open-protocols-or-something.org/protocol-name/v2

Breaking the rules could hold the company liable, and not including the contract in the protocol preamble or handshake renders talking impossible.
LINQ is a query builder and the .Net runtime creates expression trees. Entity Framework translates the expression tree to SQL and maps data back to objects.
I'd say he was wrong here, and his assumption was incorrect.

RFC2181 specifically says 'Where TC is set, the partial RRSet that would not completely fit may be left in the response'

'may be' being the key words. This would mean that it's up to the implementation to decide whether to include any records at all, and many do not.
> Why are acquisitions legal?

It'd take at least semester of public policy, a semester of economics, a semester of history, and a semester of legal studies to adequately answer that.

The shorter answer is that nonnatutal persons and natural persons have the same rights to do what they want with their property, barring very specific exemptions. One of those exemptions is monopolies, but (and add this to the list of shit Ronald fucking Reagan and the university of chicago screwed up, too) in the 1980s US anti-monopoly enforcement switched from focusing on ensuring a competitive marketplace to focusing on ensuring economic efficiency and consumer welfare, so it became much much much easier to merge and acquire competitors.
And that also happens with SQL - which is also an abstraction.

1. You can have multiple hardware keys or devices bound to an account as a backup of for ease of use.

2. Passkeys allow you to pick a backup solution of your choosing. Could be your own nextcloud server in the corner. This is no different than giving someone a choice of cloud-synced password manager

Both solutions avoid phishing, password re-use, keylogging, or people picking weak passwords.

There is no excuse for anyone even supporting passwords at this point. Sysadmins have not commonly used passwords for ssh in 20 years, favoring private keys on either hardware or encrypted disks. Keys better than passwords-over-the-wire in every way.
Centralizing logs can be a HUGE help... You just have to use a tool that doesn't cost what Splunk charges. At the risk of over-selling, log-store.com caps charges at $4k/month! That's still a lot of money, but way less than what Splunk and other SaaS providers charge!
