IRC is very low bandwidth & offers the minimal requirements for communication which can be accessible/acceptable for many projects. If something heavier is needed or wanted, XMPP MUCs & Matrix Spaces may be a good option since they are federated & decentralized (although Matrix has unfortunate defacto centralization around Matrix.org, because it requires quite a lot of resources to self-host in both the Python server as well as mirroring all content for all users for its take on federation). Mattermost & Zulip are fine, but require an account (I believe) to the central server but are FOSS & used enough places to be considered stable/trustworthy.

All options can by bridged to all other options (even the proprietary ones) in some manner, but if possible, the defacto server would be FOSS & owned/operated by the community so that that community can define their ToS and/or CoC. This way they are in control of the community rather than requiring users agree to someone else’s—especially a for-profit US corporation’s—terms in order to participate. Some users will want privacy, anonymity, control of personal data, or to get around a firewall/sanctions …and these desires should be considered acceptable. If not self-hosted (requires time/money), it’s still better to choose something using open protocols, like a space on Matrix.org, a big chatroom on XMPP’s Blabber/Conversations, Libera.Chat/OFTC, etc.

I had a skim of the book posted here, and it looks very interesting, and it goes into a lot of detail, for example there is a page on the ELF format and how the data is packaged. Are you saying you NEED to know all this to write useful code? I sort think you don't really, not at least since high level languages came out. That said this book looks very interesting to read for curiousity.

I ate what i think were wild blueberries on a hike last year (late August, Mt. Dickerman in Washington). They were smaller, wine colored, sweet, and tart. I liked them a lot more than store bought blueberries which I actually don’t like eating.

I think store bought are good in blended shakes but mostly because they add sweetness.
I wonder how hard it would be to create an interface querying GPS satellites for a given position every 5mn, and to trigger an alarm if there is a shift in the position with respect to a reference location.

iPhones have LIDAR, so you could already make that case. I doubt that all LIDAR is the same, though, and there are more expensive solutions for increased range and speed, reliability, durability.

Thank you for this. It feels like this article undermines the history of the region.

> That would invalidate all of commerce if true.

no it wouldn't.

It the deal was fair - aka, fair value - then both the buyer and seller feel they got a good exchange.

A good deal implies that the buyer got more value out of the exchange. This sometimes can happen, because the seller is valuing the sale for more than just purely cash in exchange (for example, wanting to free up inventory space).
It helps if you think about it in accounting terms where assets minus liabilities needs to add up to zero. When a bank makes a loan for $100 it adds $100 to the balance in your account - which is a $100 liability - and the $100 loan to its assets, balancing the books. Bank deposits aren't stores of physical cash, they're numbers in a ledger indicating what the bank owes you, and when you get a loan it means the bank owes you more money and not that it owes anybody else less money.

This Bank of England paper is by far the simplest and best explanation of the whole process, well worth a look even if just for the summary on the first page :)

After many many years of using Slackware, I still believe NetBSD was used as inspiration for the design of Slackware.

And NetBSD is really my favorite BSD, I only wish it worked without a minor hardware issue on the Laptop I have. I may end up putting in a PR for 10.0 BETA once I am sure of the issue.

Just use a ruler, set some offset to start at from your position, keep the offset the same for the >=dimensions+1 measurements, and show how you can recover both time (your ruler offset is your clock's offset from GPS time) and position just from the pseudoranges.

The equations are fairly easy:

(x - satellite[i].x)**2 + (y - satellite[i].y)**2 == (time_offset - satellite[i].pseudorange)**2

for your number of satellites, and it naturally extends to including a `z` for 3D, too.

I'm sure it's simply because almost everyone lives off unreported, cash income. Let's be honest: 60K per year is poverty, it's picking between living in a place without roaches vs eating out in a crappy place once per week. UK is not a poor country.

I know plenty of people earning around a median wage but no one who actually lives on that little. When you get median wage, or two, or three, you still need someone else to pay your bills.

My employees get 2-4x median wages and they do NOT live on that money alone (almost all of them moonlight elsewhere), and they are almost all struggling.

I am far in top 1% and when i saw what is the asking rent now i said to myself - "wow if i had to move now, that'll be a predicament". Ask any landlord if they are getting paid through the bank. Many won't even accept bank payment. They are paid in cash - and that cash hasn't been in the bank since many circulation loops ago. People are not poor. They are buying everything like crazy, economy is running so hot it can blow up any moment. They just don't report the money they make.

I feel like I've seen this article dozens of time before. Where are the new insights?

This is their thesis:

> The focus of this book is on the larger group between the 1% and the 10%. These are the managers and professionals of our media, business, the third sector, political parties and academia and are just as influential. However, many would not recognise themselves as high earners at all. In fact, earning around £60,000 a year in Britain places you in the top 10% of income earners. Maybe you’re surprised you fall into this category, or are not as far off as you thought. But despite this group’s relative advantage and comfort, these high earners don’t feel politically empowered. They worry about their income and are anxious about the future.

Uh, yes? Aren't these just trite observations? Professionals who earn somewhat higher than average salaries live in nicer houses and drive nicer cars and go on nicer holidays but they are still stuck working for a paycheck like almost everybody else.

I get the impression the authors badly wanted to write a book about about income inequality, a subject they feel strongly about, and then tried (and failed) to come up with something fresh to say.

The meta point here is that academia has become fiercely competitive and that's why you see books like these getting written. CV padding by people desperate for tenure. I sympathize, but also wonder if we need yet another book rehashing arguments about wealth and income inequality.
The relatively well off can't even keep a server online.

Silly article. It's basically claiming that since even the relatively well off are not doing so great nowadays due to inflation, etc. they may appreciate some wealth redistribution (to those even poorer) because they now understand inequality. (The article authors also imply inequality will lead to a revolt, aka. the stick).

Yeah, sure! You can bet the relatively well off which are feeling the economic heat will just love to pay more taxes and plunge even more rapidly on the economic ladder.

I'm not saying crypto is like a gold standard, I'm saying it behaves more as a commodity (like gold) than a currency. There's a couple of properties that make gold really useful as a form of money (rare but available, easily divisible, easy to transport) some of which are shared by crypto. The main difference is that gold also has some intrinsic value, but I reckon most of its value comes from its use a store of value. If not convincingly gold looking jewellery should have a similar price, and I don't think that's the case.

Not sure if a metal backed currency is harder to mismanage. Lowering the metal content in coins or simply lowering the corresponding amount of metal have both happened. I'm pretty sure the US simply reneged on their promise to exchange promissory notes for gold at some point.

Frankly I think that no matter the currency bankers are going to abstract it into something that they can work with eventually.

As a non-native speaker this shortcut has been driving me insane for the past half of a day. I forgot how absolutely useless Siri's speech recognition is for me.

When I talk to ChatGPT in the app (using Whisper) it understands 100%. But Siri transcribes pretty much every single query wrong. ChatGPT shows superhuman level of understanding the messed up queries to even respond with anything coherent.

Shame that the app doesn't read the completions back to you. There are probably alternative frontends that do that, I will look for them. It would be very useful when driving/cooking/etc.

Sorry for the rant :D

This stuff is obviously so hard to use that even the experts don't know wtf they are doing.

At a prev shop, they undersized the VPC had sporadic failures of burst compute like spot instances that got spun up by other AWS services (Batch) to work through job queues. Neither the cloud architect or CloudOps lead could resolve this for months, or even temporarily prevent the breaches, until a big VPC resize / reshuffle / migration over a weekend. Probably $1M/year TC between these two guys. Incredible stuff.

Felt like on-prem kind of stuff that I was reliably told the cloud solved.
I would have just measured the rice with a scale. Counting it out is certainly more TikTok votes, but I have a scale to 3 significant digits and counting this one at a time seems like a waste.

Hmmm but the fly must have some kind of incredible complexity compared to a pair of subatomic particles.

Reka is an odd choice as an example of an American blueberry. While it's increasingly common to grow here, it was actually developed in New Zealand. "Reka" is named for the Maori word for "sweet". Which is also a little ironic, since they are one of the more tart blueberries. I like them, though!

I could hardly disagree more, in light of all the goodness, the lives saved, the artifice that we have gained through hard work and choose to not throw away every day.

The worries that we have today are, to me, preferable and much less violent, bloody, or tragic than the worries of yesterday.

I think diversity of opinion can contribute useful perspective, but I'd encourage not calling most people brainwashed who disagree. Even if that were true, it's hardly conductive to changing anyone's mind.

Sometimes people have different values and cannot agree. Assuming good faith can help cross that bridge.

>> The Democrats launched FBI investigations against their political opponents without sufficient legal backing.

If you're referring to the Trump investigation (during his first run), then your claim is false. No court or legal investigation including that of the special counsel or general inspector's report, has reached such a conclusion.

The special counsel report did determine there was enough grounds to start an investigation but it said it should have been a preliminary investigation and not a full-blown investigation.

Also, the FBI was led by a Republican (James Comey) appointed by a Democrat (Obama) specifically because he was supposed to be independent-minded (as the Deputy AG under Bush, Comey refused to sign an extension of a warantless spying program because he felt it was illegal and the program lapsed; Comey then rushed to the hospital to make sure the AG who wasn't sick wasn't tricked into signing it)
