> Significance

> There is widespread belief across the social sciences in the ability of social interventions and social institutions to significantly influence rates of social mobility. In England, 1600 to 2022, we see considerable change in social institutions across time. Half the population was illiterate in 1,800, and not until 1,880 was compulsory primary education introduced. Progressively after this, educational provision and other social supports for poorer families expanded greatly. The paper shows, however, that these interventions did not change in any measurable way the strong familial persistence of social status across generations.

> Abstract

> A lineage of 422,374 English people (1600 to 2022) contains correlations in social outcomes among relatives as distant as 4th cousins. These correlations show striking patterns. The first is the strong persistence of social status across family trees. Correlations decline by a factor of only 0.79 across each generation. Even fourth cousins, with a common ancestor only five generations earlier, show significant status correlations. The second remarkable feature is that the decline in correlation with genetic distance in the lineage is unchanged from 1600 to 2022. Vast social changes in England between 1600 and 2022 would have been expected to increase social mobility. Yet people in 2022 remain correlated in outcomes with their lineage relatives in exactly the same way as in preindustrial England. The third surprising feature is that the correlations parallel those of a simple model of additive genetic determination of status, with a genetic correlation in marriage of 0.57.
Got any documentation on how a setup like this might be implemented? I'm curious how the interfaces float between nodes to keep the network up.

Does it make sense to use nix during the image build process to precisely define dependencies I want to have in the resulting container? Or perhaps in other words, can I use nix and docker together, to have a precisely defined environment I can share with others devs as a result?

Sorry to say this, but some developers tend to think about themselves as the center of the world.

“Cloud” is nothing but a bunch of virtualized resources (computer, network, storage, etc) that you can manage on demand through an API.

Many people stuck with MS-DOS and Windows 3.1 because they booted and ran faster than the modern Windows. Plus they rely on software that is 16 bit and cannot be converted and cannot run on 64 Bit Windows.

JRR Martin is one that still uses MS-DOS with WordStar because they are stable and saves his files on a LAN Manager share. He cannot tolerate a blue screen of death or Windows Update reboot fouling up his work. I think he may be better off using Headless Linux and eMacs with the WordStar key bindings emulation https://ftp.gnu.org/old-gnu/Manuals/emacs/html_node/emacs_46...
That’s a very bigoted way to define „philosopher“. Philosopher’s job is not to tell things that you want to hear. Philosopher’s job is to challenge you.

If you have Twitter and Reddit in mind then the first thing is to understand that both are largely irrelevant. At least Twitter has become the de facto platform for instant, short "press releases" but that's about it.

So what happens to them or their APIs is not important and they are not powerful in any real sense.

In comparison, Standard Oil was a real, powerful monopoly that controlled a key resource.

In the "tech world", I'd say Google is the one that matters because it has become the gatekeeper of the Web and Google ranking is critically important.
My education and work history are in the biological sciences (although I have admittedly recently made a career change).

To my mind, science (formerly known known as natural philosophy) is a subset of philosophy. However, it is a subset that has grown to dwarf the other subsets and is given separate, special attention. You do not learn much, if any, science in a philosophy degree because philosophy degrees now focus on philosophies that have not been spun off into separate degrees/fields.

Within the sciences, you do learn philosophy (or at least it factored highly in my undergraduate degree), but it's not about Aristotle or Nietzsche. It's about the assumptions and logic underpinning the scientific method, statistical analysis, etc.

My introductory classes, at least, covered a number of arguments and assumptions that (to my ear) are very much questions of philosophy. For example, scientific inquiry is dependent on the assumption that the laws of the universe are consistent across time, meaning that experiments performed now can nonetheless offer insight into past and future phenomena.
"Cloud" is just "datacenter" with special mark-up for the pointy haired boss.

From what I've seen of it, the UK doesn't have this problem. I doubt much of Europe has this problem.

The title:

>Happiness is a reward from our ancestors

Followed by the subtitle:

>Long-term happiness only comes to those who emulate their successful ancestors

Did anyone else get a severe case of mental whiplash from that? I pretty strongly agree with the title in many ways (the now is built on the shoulders of the past), but holy cow I do not agree with that subtitle at all.

The rest of this reads like a pile of Sapir-Whorf combined with "works on my machine means it's correct".
That's obviously a lot more work than having the OS do it for you.
How does it create a level playing field?

Everyone gets the same treatment. Everyone is delayed the same amount.
The Common Controls library actually became available with Windows 3.11. The Windows 3.11 SDK contains the commctrl.h header. The wfw31wh.hlp file explains how to use the controls. Windows 95 still provided a 16 bit commctrl.dll but omitted the CreateHeaderWindow function.
Yet another sincere effort to make the easy things easy.
This is not the case in SF. Developers want to build, but entrenched interests fight and delay, often using the rhetoric that doing so only makes developers richer and the only reason developers want to develop is so the developers themselves make money (as if this is some kind of purity test of intent).

Alternatively the Protectli’s https://protectli.com/vault-4-port/ . Protectli gets you support and coreboot, next day Amazon shipping but more expensive and older hardware.

These are great devices for running Opensense bare metal or virtualised in Proxmox. I use Proxmox on a protectli so can run unifi controller and ad guard home in lxc containers with Opensense in a VM. I’d buy a cwwk if buying again, I just didn’t know about them at the time.

The author links to a post of what personally worked for her [1].

> In order to cure my depression, I did the evolutionary psychology thing hard-core: I got married and had children. I dropped out of university. I moved to the countryside. I started to renovate and build houses and to grow food for my family.

What seems like the author's fundamental explanation is also written there:

> It is exactly the same with psychological pain. Ideally, psychological pain is information saying "stop doing what you are doing". The mechanism is not perfect and many people suffer from inexplicable psychological pain. But still, the purpose of psychological pain is telling people they are probably hurting their genes.

> One big problem is that our genes weren't invented yesterday. What was once good for our genes is not necessarily good for our genes today. So when we experience psychological pain, it is likely to be because we do something that was bad for our ancestors' genes.

She also notes that a lot of genes were selected for in the last 10k years, so some of our genetic instincts are for farming rather than hunting and gathering. [2]

Oh! I assumed your problem was with an Apple device; I haven't used Android in a long while, so I have no idea what the state of permissions is there.

But, like I said in my previous comment, I haven't seen this happen on my iPhone and I always deny location/bluetooth permissions unless there's a good reason for the app to have it.

Unless the foundations themselves are changing (that is, AWS bringing something different), I suspect it's going to make it worse. It just hides the ugly truth behind yet another layer of abstraction, hoping this layer will make things work.

I don't remember when building extra abstraction layer had ever helped runtime performance. Faster and simpler coding, less learning? Sure - and that's great. But I suspect it's going to be as bad as my first large Terraform project (and oh man it sucked so bad).

Or it could be decently fast, but it'll make a number of assumptions and $deity help you if you step in a wrong direction.

WASM? BEAM? JVM? Anything?

"Linux" is huge overkill for a cloud abstraction.

Cloud applications don't need 99% of all device drivers and the desired ones need to be tuned for cloud anyways. Cloud applications need a persistent store but not necessarily a filesystem. Cloud applications don't want to think about process scheduling they want to assume they have the CPU and memory they need. etc.

Manufacturing uses coal burning, why not go after them first? Picking on the Small Business Pizza places for wood and coal burning pizza ovens is going to hurt those small businesses and cause them to close. Brick oven pizzas taste better than electric oven pizza.

It is a bit nice to have a "full" operating system in your container, especially for debugging.

There doesn't seem to be a _huge_ drawback to running an Ubuntu image vs Alpine, aside from the image size.
How so, the last two generations of Xbox and PS consoles have been pretty much off-the-shelf hardware.

The Xbox and PS5 are literally using an AMD Zen2 CPU and an AMD GPU, nothing weirdly custom like the PS3's "emotion engine".

There's no reason they couldn't run a standard Linux or even Windows. They have HDMI ports, USB and everything just like a normal PC. Even the PS3 with it's super weird processing system had a _native_ Linux version provided by Sony[0].

Why aren't people up in arms insisting that Microsoft and Sony allow us to install Linux on "our hardware", but are so very pressed when they can't do that with a phone? Why is a console walled garden perfectly fine, but on a phone it's anathema? Are people still thinking of the NES when they hear "console"?

Sure you need fast tick updates for dynamic models right in front of you, but something ~100 virtual meters away? can at least halve it, 500m maybe even 1/10 will suffice.

Yes, you do. BEAM will not handle your CPU interrupts or manage your physical memory pages or your USB devices. (The 99 percent of an OS's job.)
Please don't compare web 2.0 and AI to "web3". The term "web3" was used because crypto bros wanted some legitimacy for all their scams.
I found that video incredibly unconvincing. It just feels like pseudoscience telling people what they want to hear, and the data was underwhelming (assuming it's not flawed to begin with).

I think a more plausible explanation is that people just lie to themselves to believe whatever they want. These people are only "happier" until they're forced to confront a reality that contradicts their beliefs. In other words it's willful ignorance masquerading as synthesized happiness.

There's also data backing up what I'm saying. There's a study that's regurgitated constantly saying people aren't happier after making a certain amount of money ($75k), but almost nobody bothered to actually read the study. I think this contradictory study is a lot more convincing.

This really isn't viable in somewhere like the UK.

At our current electricity prices, if that machine ran at 100W, you'd be spending the equivalent of what you paid for it EVERY month in electricity.

I've always seen Americans, who typically have more space and cheaper energy and fuel suggest people grab 1U servers for $40 etc, and respond just like you did when people ask them _not_ to.

My car also does 50mpg, and I still pay more pay mile for fuel.

In Europe, we need to spend more to buy efficient tech because the running costs require it.

Honestly I never understood why Docker stopped at where it's at.

Imagine a world where a "docker push aws.io production" leads to an automatically updated docker remote, and where the endpoint is automatically NATed, scaled and shutdown if not needed anymore.

Could have been so convenient. Instead there's this pile of networking glue code that's so custom for each platform that nobody wants to deal with load balancers.

In my opinion the biggest "innovation" in the cloud space was heroku back then, where code deployment was fully integrated to the dev workflow via git.
You might want to specify that on the title or in intro.
I don't have anything to share, other than wishing you smooth and painless procedure, and hoping you can resume a normal life pretty soon.

I have a relative who had a long and complex open heart surgery in her early teens (for something unrelated, no need for an artificial valve). Thankfully the procedure was very successful, and she was able to recover in a matter of weeks. And this was almost 20 years ago, when technology was a lot less advanced.
~50 employees? I'd love to hear what regular employees will see from this (if anything). Even if it's completely controlled by NDA, I think even confirming the existence of that NDA would be helpful.

So often we see these "success" stories and we don't hear exactly how the "regular joes" made out. And it can color our perception of the startup gamble, without real evidence.
Beyonh Watson buzzer doping, it's interesting but not as much as some people make it out to be. Since it isn't an autonomous package equivalent to a person. At the time, it was the size of a master bedroom. If we compared it to a room jull of smart people, does Watson still seem impressive in it's feat?

Similarly, getting a mechanical package that can traverse a course like a human using locomotion like a human, which would be much more impressive if it's not running of flat asphalt. But like you note, we can't do that even entirely abstracting away the AI portion, so the question of what will happen when an AI wins a 5k is mostly moot, there's many steps to get there that we haven't gotten close to, and even when we've solved all the aspects separately (a general AI, locomotion, power density) it will likely be a while after that (if ever) before they are solved together in a package that compete.

Im not saying humans are the epitome of these systems come together, but I doubt evolution has left us with a completely horrible design, especially if were talking about thinking and running, two things humans are known for being quite good at (to our own knowledge).
Elad here (the author). That's a very good point. If a developer decides to use `bucket.list().filter(x => x == myFile)` instead of `bucket.get(myFile)` the result will be fundamentally different both from a security perspective (e.g. `ListObjects` instead of `GetObject` on AWS), but also from a performance perspective (`list` is O(n) but `get` is O(1)).

If you think about this is primarily an issue of software engineering quality. The fact that today we are forcing the developer to go their devops team to request these permissions creates an organizational workflow that increases quality. That's why most of the teams I worked at requires code reviews.

I believe the right approach is to enable devops teams to put up boundaries and rules that will get enforced downstream (build => deployment => production). This will allow both developers and devops teams to be be more independent but still be in control.

Curious what people think about winglang's compiler plugin system as a way to help streamline these boundaries (https://www.winglang.io/docs/tools/compiler-plugins).

we are drop-in compatible with ccache, in the sense that you can plug ccache right in (as an HTTP backend), and gain features like authorization policies, analytics, and global caching backed by Cloudflare.

that's where we are beginning and then we're working to add spicier features on from there. but first and foremost, we want to serve the ccache/gradle cache crowd with a fantastic protocol-agnostic backend which "just works" and pays for itself in terms of time saved.

I also run one of these but the 6 port version.

The jest part about Protectli is the Coreboot and they provide instructions to compile your own, so it even feels open.

That said, fully configured with RAM and storage mine cost roughly £600.

Given electricity prices in the UK, and my requirement for an as-open-as-possible software stack, it was well worth it. If it outlasts the EdgeRouter it replaced (7yrs before power circuitry died) I'll be very happy.

That said, my main concern, as a reply to you pointed out, is that I'll want more than Gigabit in that time; my street is getting 10Gb/10Gb in the next couple of years.
