Zrepl – ZFS replication
If you can read German, I have come to really appreciate Stiftung Warentest, see test.de. [1]

They conduct rigorous product reviews and try to simulate wear and tear usage of the products. To this end, some reviews take them months. They also come up with their own test suites that are tailored to the product that they are testing.

Even though it is quite costly (sometimes I pay 5€ for a review), I have started to rely on their ratings more and more, as they are completely independent and usually not far off with the end result.

As it stands, currently, their review quality beats internet reviews.

> Our current financial system has issues, but the best system for 99%+ of people.

I have to violently disagree with that statement.

For a good chunk of people (> 10%), the current system is a vampire on the efforts of people, draining them via transfer fees, account fees, overdraft fees & whatever new fee they can come up with today. Their failures are bailed out because "tHeY'rE tOo BiG tO fAiL", influencing politicians into using the funds of the State to give themselves a pillow to land on. They deem themselves to be above the effects of "the hand of the market" that everyone else has to go through. Screw that: They must be able to fail like the rest of us, with no soft landing given to them when they do so.

Dual-use, post quantum drop in replacement for digital signatures in test
Founder here, to start, this is absolutely prototype technology and it is not ready to be sold or used for anything beyond test. This started as a regular digital ledger, turned into some moderate contributions to the academic theory, but not much in terms practical innovation.

From there we achieve a pretty remarkable result. To compare this to non superconductor LK99, we've made it the professors and other experts achieving similar results and improving our crude process. That doesn't mean it works, that means it shows promise as is worth sharing that we've made it this far.

The innovation in question is a quantum resilient EU-CMA digital signature algorithm that's a little bit smaller than RSA in communication cost. [This is where everyone usually reacts, please, take a moment if you need].

Now. Yes, it's a drop in replacement for RSA with compute and memory cost that is 'good enough' without full optimization.

While I was aware that novel cryptography is covered under the EAR as dual use, I was a bit surprised when we were upgraded to ITAR, but it happened. Category 13(b) on the USML, and not really any way around it. As it was privately developed we ARE allowed to talk about it, but NOT transfer it without an export license.

The plan is go through the academic buff and polish, the full standardization process and certification, and then apply to for export licenses domestically and abroad. This is exactly why we're happy to announce we added former Army General Patrick Huston to our Board of advisors. His legal expertise is a great help.

Unless you teach cryptography, please wait for the expert results before coming to a definitive conclusion. The point of this post is to provide a little hope for people, especially those working on constrained networks. Somebody seems to have found a solution to this massive problem, hopefully.

PS The information on the website is out of date, won't provide you much usable information... because that would be a transfer. If you really want to disprove me, and have the capability, something can certainly be arranged.

I am surprised at all of this myself, but, that's the timeline we're on.

Based on your description a surgeon would also be an engineer.

The real meaning for engineer is someone who builds complex stuff that require years of learning and practice for the majority of the population.

Having a set of defined rules to follow is not engineering, is safety based on previous experience, most car drivers also do that and they are not engineers.

I start by opening a few tabs with various search queries, some of which are usually scoped to Reddit or HN. That usually kicks open a few more tabs, and maybe some dedicated forums or Shopify stores.

Then the hyperfocus takes me, and I stray out of thought and time, and I wander far through hundreds of tabs. I become an expert on the multi-decade rivalries between vacuum cleaner manufacturers, the nuanced multi-dimensional calculus of coffee grinders, and the intricate supply chain dynamics of family-owned towel-makers.

And then I throw down my credit card, the stars wheel overhead, and every day feels as long as a life age of the Earth... until the UPS driver arrives. At last, I have my hard-earned morsel of capitalism.

I noticed on your home page near the bottom under the "Getting the Latest in Privacy" subheading your list of scrollables begins to duplicate entries if you keep clicking the right arrow after the "Brave Talk X Skiff" panel. From that point on, most of the entries are twinned until you reach the end of the list.

> If you do not want to use one 4-bit ALU or adder, but you want to use only one single-bit adder for serial additions, that does not reduce the number of TTL circuits, but it increases them.

The linked project implements an "1-bit ALU + sequencing + microcode" in a single PROM and just 3 TTL logic ICs (it's absolutely fair to use a PROM, because the 2900 designs all used PROMs too)

Sure, it also used serial memory ICs that didn't exist in the 70s, but it wouldn't take that much TTL logic to implement the three address registers (program counter, write pointer, read pointer) and other memory support logic. Your 2900 family design also needs memory support logic too, and at least one address register.

I just don't think you can beat that chip count with a microcoded AMD 2900 family design, and it's going to be significantly cheaper. In many ways it's an extremely simplified version of the exact same design, with the key parts of the ALU and Sequencer rolled into the microcode PROM chip, and every other feature discarded.

Sure, the microcoded 2900 based design might result in a more capable design for not that many extra chips, but the goal here is absolute lowest IC count.

----------------------------------------

Now, if you are willing to think outside of the proposed designs in AMDs 2900 family design handbook, then maybe you improve on things by misusing chips.

For example. 2910 is meant to be a 12 bit microcode sequencer, but I think it could be abused in the above design to implement the program counter plus read/write address registers in a single chip. If we also used a second one for its intended purpose, we should be able to the three TTL logic chips used for sequencing.

I haven't fully thought though the design, but I think this makes it possible to do a 1bit CPU in just five chips. 8K word 16bit PROM, two AMD 2910 sequencers, one TLL chip for clock generation, and a 4K 1 bit wide SRAM chip for program/data storage.

The ALU is just lookup tables in the PROM, so it should be possible to implement a two bit or three bit wide ALU by moving to a larger PROM chip and wider SRAM. Four bits might be a stretch as I want to use part of the microcode address as ALU input registers, but you could always add more PROMs and 2910s to make the whole design wider.

AFAICT, the entire "Gen Z finds thumbs up passive aggressive" is fake news; it got started somewhere, and then copy/pasted across news sites with nobody doing an ounce of journalistic fact checking. E.g., this chain [1] → [2] → [3] chains back to the Reddit post ([3]) which has a grand total of … 26 upvotes (on the day the Today article is written)? … and AFAICT, the reddit post is what kicks off the news copypastafest. That's not a reliable source to then label an entire generation. "Journalists" getting their "facts" from r/Adulting … sigh. (Note that your NYPost article falls, chronologically, between [1] and [2], and note the dates on them all. There's a few other citations in the Today post … like an employee at Today, tweets, (it must have been a rather slow week) … and a (different) NYPost article whose citation is … the same Reddit post! The closet we get is then a jump to a Yahoo article which claims an unsourced survey for its data.)

(AFAICT talking to people, everyone I've seen who thinks this is a thing appears to think such because they've encountered these news posts / reposts of this, not because they genuinely hold the belief themselves. Self-fulfilling prophecy, at this point. Though now that I've invoked a weird form of Cunningham's Law, I'm sure someone will tell me they're the one, and that there are dozens of them out there. Tell me why you can't just read :+1: in an "assume best intent" light and treat it as the literal "ack/agree/yes" that it's probably meant as, and what, you want me to spam everyone with reply notifications instead of just a reaction…?)

(There is also an episode of Dr. Phil out there that goes into how a bunch of emoji are supposedly poisoned one way or another, again with nary a citation to most of it, or they're saying "X emoji is ruined" where, no, it's only ruined if you use it in a particular context where the meaning of the emoji isn't the original meaning, but rather the context puns it to something else. Cf. the eggplant emoji.)

I've had a lot more luck with hard disks these days than I did 20 years ago. Remember 20 years ago was the era of the infamous IBM Deathstar drives where the magnetic coating would literally start sprinkling off the platters. Also the era of terrible terrible Maxtor drives that died in 1-2 years, which Seagate then bought and made their drives also unstable for a while. I ran a server with around 8 drives and had to keep replacing disks at the rate of about one per year.

Meanwhile today I'm helping admin a ZFS server with 20+ drives and drives have about a 4-5 year lifespan.

> but they definitely outlived the usefulness of the computer that they were bought with

Computers were also much more quickly obsoleted back then. When today a 6 year old computer is totally useable, back then you really felt it if your machine was just 3 years old.

I'm not sure what your definition of terrorism is. It sounds like it's defined as stealing resources from someone else?

The definition of terrorism is not very defined, but I would think it generally means to cause fear in the general public for political gains. Maybe the general public can be replaced by an ad network theft induces fear, but then I think we're on vague territory.

I think for me the main point is just that harm can be justified for good and bad reasons, so we have to discuss how it's harmful and why it's justified or vice versa, rather than just saying it's harmful therefore bad.

In general I'm for "harming" businesses that I believe are actively harming society. I would be more on the side of trying to target their incentives rather than any individual person though. Sanctions, penalties and tax disincentives supposedly do this.

(Disclaimer: I worked in retinal imagery AI for a few years)

I understand why this seems like pseudoscience, but I'd like to explain the assumption better.
As the article states,

> a scan of the retina is the only non-intrusive way to view layers of cells below the skin’s surface.

As an extension, you could also make the case for being able to view the nervous system via such imagery. As stated in [1],

> Despite its peripheral location, the retina or neural portion of the eye, is actually part of the central nervous system.

The theory is that such a non-invasive of visualizing crucial parts of the inner body opens up a "window" into noticing such biomarkers well before the common-but-late-stage symptoms are noticeable.

As for your gripe about:

> let’s dump medical records and retina images into a neural network and see what correlates

, I agree that this requires more careful analysis, but I assume that will happen as part of clinical trials of any such technology. The first foray, which is more experimental than anything concrete, is what this article seems to suggest.

I haven’t used faster-whisper so I can’t compare performance, but whisper.cpp does support cuda via CUBLAS, and it’s noticeably faster than the cpu version. I used it earlier this year to generate subtitles for 6 seasons of an old tv show I backed up from dvd that didn’t include subtitles on the disc.
I sort of agree with this. But I will say, mentally I've always distinguished between an engineer and a programmer.

A software engineer builds/architects complex systems in an efficient manner that utilizes a set of standards to do so. Software engineers actually use data structures, complex algorithms and engineering paradigms in their solutions.

A programmer does rote/formulaic (sometimes simplistic) work. Installs and customizes Wordpress sites with basic PHP monkeypatching. Cobbles together UIs with UI libraries and prebaked components. Builds COBOL and FORTRAN applications. Etc.

It's an arbitrary distinction and slightly biased; but one that I think fits. Both are needed and have places in the careerscape, but their utility is different. Much like a civil engineer and a safety inspector are both necessary, despite only one utilizing "engineering principals".
> Sql is one of the coolest languages ever developed and I hate the resistance to it.

I agree, but the resistance, I feel, is due to really poor tooling.

No compilation step (so, how do you know you have an error? You run it). Run your query on test which has mostly live data, everything works, run it on production and suddenly that one query has abysmal performance and it's hard to determine that it's because of some missing index. The query explainer or describer is often understood by devs because they spend so little time with SQL itself, due to using ORMs.

There's no debugger. Hell, sometimes even the printf-equivalent is a poor substitute. You cannot step through a large SP, you cannot put in breakpoints, you cannot add watches, etc.

Unfortunately, the "tooling" for most devs are ORMs, which makes SQL even more opaque and more hard to debug, and reduces the pressure for popular DBMSs to develop decent debuggers.

I feel that if teams/projects insisted on "Only parameterized SQL queries in the program is allowed", SQL would actually get less maligned as people got more familiar with it.
