This is fascinating, I live in a region where there are patches of competitive ISP area, and as a consequence, I have never seen an ISP advertise a price outside of a targeted mailing or phone call.

I had assumed that most of the rest of the country was like this, and you only got prices after you gave an address.

Even a medium size ISP that was running a "price for life" deal, didn't even advertise with the price was, and you got better deals if you were in a competitive area. (Based on comparing mailed advertisements).

Prices appear on physical mail advertisements I get for internet service, I get quite a lot of them, but billboards, television ads, and everything else simply lacks a price and touts product quality and speed.
you can also drop the Arduino bit and use FreeRTOS. Also many of my ESP32 projects end up on a solderable breadboard with a level shifter to deal with 3.3v. But most of what I work with today is 3.3v.
Quips are not a good basis for decision-making. Immutability is valuable but there is no conflict between immutability and types; you should use both. As for "bugs found in the field", having switched to Scala I pretty much don't encounter them.

The answer to "is x fast?" is always "compared to what?"

Having been a long-time user of Figma's somewhat-trailing (at this point) competitor, Sketch, speed is surprisingly one of Figma's most immediately-apparent advantages despite being web-based rather than MacOS-native.

At a previous job, we had a Sketch file that contained more or less an entire B2B app, and at hundreds of megabytes, it took tens of seconds to load (not asynchronously, either, blocking the UI until the whole thing was in memory). A similar everything-file at a more recent job where we used Figma was like night and day: something like three seconds until the file was usable, and perhaps a few more seconds for any big images to load.

Then there's Figma's upstart competitor, Penpot. In my initial explorations, it felt about as responsive as Figma, but when I loaded one of their tutorial files – not even a mega-B2B-app file – everything slowed considerably. The load time wasn't bad, but the frame rate for simply scrolling around the artboards dropped like a rock. While I'm bullish on Penpot, they have a long optimization road ahead of them.
There are plenty of oss solutions that talk "s3", like swift, ceph and seaweedfs.

Why object storage? Its easier to backup, version and to scale horizontally. Most solutions will also provide encryption capabilities that can be commanded either via external key management systems or from the client application. Also, custom access policies are great for private documents and file uploads.

Using static files is a good solution in some cases, nothing against it. But in many scenarios, there are huge benefits on using object storage instead, even if it is quite slower.

Before the computers and the internet, some people kept diaries. (A diary is like a blogging with pen and paper).

So yes, I know that on August 30, 1823 great^n grampa spent the day haying. Because he wrote it down on paper. Maybe -- if your blog survives 200 years -- your great^n grandchildren will look back and know that you spent August 30, 2023 docking a grunt file or whatever. And will probably be very confused.
The silently changing commandments was what I was referring to.
> 18 U.S. Code § 1703 - Delay or destruction of mail or newspapers (a) Whoever, being a Postal Service officer or employee, unlawfully secretes, destroys, detains, delays, or opens any letter, postal card, package, bag, or mail entrusted to him or which shall come into his possession, and which was intended to be conveyed by mail, or carried or delivered by any carrier or other employee of the Postal Service, or forwarded through or delivered from any post office or station thereof established by authority of the Postmaster General or the Postal Service, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

This sets the basic expectation that mail will be delivered, and intentionally not delivering mail is a crime, although it allows for lawful exceptions, and therefore, if you wish to assert that the postal service has discretion to purposefully not deliver mail, you have the burden to cite the law or regulation allowing them to do so.

I've looked at several laws recognizing particular items as unmailable, but I don't see anything that fits your assertion that they have to deliver mail they know is harmful to the recipient or someone else who isn't the sender or the recipient.

18 U.S. Code § 1716 - Injurious articles as nonmailable [1] has a list of items that are injurious and so can't be mailed, but these are things like poisonous animals, long bladed knifes and such, not harassment or suggestions to harass others with contact details.

18 U.S. Code § 1717 - Letters and writings as nonmailable [2] has a list of things you can't mail letters in relation to, which are mostly about forging government papers, defense secrecy stuff, but also 18 U.S. Code § 956 - Conspiracy to kill, kidnap, maim, or injure persons or damage property in a foreign country [3]. But it seems that letters regarding a conspiracy to injure persons within the united states are mailable.

There's also some very limited restrictions on mailing sexually oriented advertisements.

Attacking another user like this will get you banned here, regardless of how wrong they are or you feel they are. You've been breaking the site guidelines so frequently that you're already over the line at which we'd normally ban an account, but I'd prefer to ask you to follow them first.

If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting here, we'd appreciate it.
That'd be an extremely complicated fix though. Are sterile people automatically excluded from old age benefits? What about someone who suffered from assault and finds reproduction traumatic? What about someone who simply finds reproduction repulsive? What about conscientious objectors who think that over population is a serious issue and refuse on moral grounds? What about people with disorders or genetic aberrations that they don't wish to pass on? What about women with physical defects that make pregnancy extremely dangerous? (some heart conditions for instance)

That road is extremely grey and has a lot of really difficult edge cases you'll need to sort out.

Also - if we just need a next generation in the workforce immigration is an excellent option for the time being.
Again, this is spurious. They can create the bill; they can label the charges on the bill. That's inarguable.
You get all sides. For me, with a lot of experience in this area, I find juries almost borderline random. Completely unpredictable. One jury to the next will have a completely different attitude.

I've seen juries several times acquit people who, based on the presented evidence, were so totally and completely guilty it defies rational sense. I would love to have been in the jury room for those ones.
This is just great. Thanks for the idea.

That's a good way to address the noise on VMs! We do something different but in a similar spirit: when we compare to the main branch, we calculate the baseline based on 1-2 weeks worth of historical data on main (we identify the latest step change with a simple linear regression). This way we approximate the baseline based on ~100 data points which also helps to address the variance.

Of course re-running the code from main and the PR on the same VM side by side would be the best, and it would cost a lot more money (especially once you factor in GPUs). We considered it but opted to the strategy I outlined above, it's mainly a trade-off between accuracy vs costs
I'm mainly worried about a permanent record of a profile of a range of my online activities. A realistic first step is to break that up a little.

With the Google Maps mention I was suggesting it's ok not to go hard core privacy, because that really takes a lot of time an energy. I use google Maps maybe 4 times a month on my PC, in a browser dedicated to it with a Google account just for that activity. I use a VPN. On the road, I use Organic Maps on CalyxOS.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say or how it's relevant to the question.

I work for Teamshares, and while not everything about the company is public, what we do is buy small local companies when their owners retire, and transition the companies to an employee-owned model. Everyone gets to keep their jobs, workers get a share of the profits, and local communities benefit from business continuity. It seems to work very well, and there's no catch.
I'm with the FCC on this one.

It's silly ISPs are fighting this, because if they can charge you a specific fee, it's obvious they can provide an CSV or Excel file with all the fees. I don't see anything too hard about it. It's literally a SELECT and maybe a JOIN with it.

Hell, I don't even understand what's so hard about it. Literally, Twilio gives you a nice CSV file with all the fees and tiers applicable to you and you can use it to ask for discounts. If Twilio can do it, you standard AT&T for sure can.

It's ironic how in The Land of the Free, ISPs are fighting to be opaque. If your corporate strategy is based on obscurity, maybe it's time for some serious consumer protection regulation?

That is not exactly defense of medical system. If it keeps workers sleep deprived they will make mistakes. This just means system itself sux.
I'm not sure why this is at the bottom. There's sarcasm and exaggeration, but it's a very legitimate point. [edit: ok, no longer gray and at the bottom.]

Read through the wikipedia page[0] on how it's not recognized by most medical associations.

> a specialist in investigating deaths in custody, describes excited delirium as "a boutique kind of diagnosis created, unfortunately, by many of my forensic pathology colleagues specifically for persons dying when being restrained by law enforcement."

Or a deeper Reuters investigation[1] on how closely the diagnosis and acceptance of the "condition" is tied to police and taser manufacturers, Axon specifically. Cmd+F'ing "Mash" will jump you to the parts where they're paying the medical examiner who also happens to diagnose these deaths as exited delirium.

Except for the fact that I'm not going to commit to working in an office. COVID showed what kind of life is actually possible. Eliminating the commute alone means 10 more hours I get to spend with my family each week. I don't care how nice their campus is or what kinds of espresso machine they have. I'm not going back into an office, ever. Period.
Why is it unknowable? Just because we do not know yet doesn't seem to me to be conclusive evidence that it is unknowable.

I also think some would argue that being omniscient god has the "bandwidth" to care about everything and everyone. So in one sense everyone is special, which of course means no one is special but does not mean that our actions would be inconsequential.

That is absolutely true, but there is a reason for it. When society releases someone from prison they generally have so little support to get them back to being a productive member of society that they end up in situations where they reoffend.

From what you wrote, it seems like you were fundamentally misunderstanding Stoicism. Not unusual for a young person just learning about philosophy, but still, and important distinction.

The core idea of Stoicism is identifying what is actually under your power and control, and focusing your energy on that. It is in some sense, virtually the opposite of it's popular perception (e.g. "little s" stoicism) of just accepting things as they are and suffering quietly.

I think the book Thoughts of a Philosophical Fighter Pilot by Jim Stockdale is a good example of how effective stoicism is in actual "cold weather" so to speak.
Yep, that's Paramount Ranch for those interested. There's not much left of it after the last fire that went through there though (Woolsey fire I think it was).
On the other extreme, if you ever want to see the actual (charming) city where Brazilian tv and cinema productions portraying the colonial period (16th-19th cent) are filmed, it’s called Tiradentes, in Minas Gerais. Definitely worth a trip if you are in Rio or Sao Paulo.

The second comment feels closer to the mark. While post-hoc justifications could be made as to why a rule at least in spirit seemingly about patient privacy ignores an obvious and glaring privacy flaw, if the parties involved could be so honest, the real-world answer why it’s allowed would probably be

Sprinkle on a little bureaucrat-ese and post-hoc justification and you get the “clarified guidance” the primary comment calls out

> just a trading zone

I did not use the word "just".

It is also a FTA. And unlike most (all?) other FTAs, it has democratic elections. All the funky stuff it can do is tied into that democratic process, because that is what the member states wanted.

> into a single country ("ever closer union")

The former is not the latter.

> which unfortunately would be the death of democracy in Europe

Bothering with elections and MPs is a bizarro mirror-world way of doing that.

That aside: Turning the EU into a country would require a massive treaty change; there's no way at all to forecast what this might look like given it's not even on the horizon yet.

They weren't even able to give UK citizens in the EU a way to claim EU citizenship despite several politicians wanting to make it available, because "EU citizen" is really just a shorthand for "citizen of an EU member state" rather than a coherent thing in its own right.

> because the EU is a totalitarian system

I work near to Checkpoint Charlie, I've been to the DDR and Stasi museums; if you think the EU is "totalitarian" you don't know what those words mean.

The way you're using the word, I think 100% of all treaties would fail, given they are not (generally? Ever?) negotiated directly by parliaments.
Good high-resolution specialized video-codec based (H.264 / H.265) digital FPV video systems like Walksnail or DJI hover at around 30ms of latency glass-to-glass.

Analog systems used in racing are at around 15ms glass-to-glass, with most latency coming from the camera's image processing, but would be a bit non-standard to train or build a system around without transforming back into the framebuffer/pixel-value domain, which would introduce some slight degree of extra latency.

There's a rather unique uncompressed transmission system called HDZero which roughly matches analog latency.

Purpose-built low latency uplinks add 5-10ms to get data turned around and back into the flight controller, albeit at fairly low bitrates as they're mostly serial based.

So, for realtime control (kinematics), which runs at the multi-kHz rate on racing drones, onboard control is pretty much a must, but for both short-term and long-term planning, offboard control becomes more practical.

Most non-FPV drones are already architected this way, with gyro-to-motor PID control performed on a microcontroller running an RTOS, short-term planning information coming in asynchronously from a larger SoC running Linux and ML-type stuff, and long-term control information coming down over the air.
Exactly. I was once called 2 hours after I had checked-in in a new town and informed that I must pay extra to stay due to some booking confusion between them and the travel agency. It was a huge hassle to find a new place that night and check out of the greedy hotel asap. You can be sure I left honest reviews of my experience in a few places.

A lot of these cases are overcharged, with a more serious but unsustainable charge added on, to try to make sure the defendant enters a plea deal rather than attempt trial. This defendant got lucky by going to trial and having a jury that did the right thing.

I would prefer you to understand that, in the absence of any objective measure, my sources are as good as yours, or, equivalently, yours are as bad as mine. But, based on what you wrote above, I doubt you can (understand).

Your above point itself proves what I said: "dueling literature"! Heh.
It's definitely a core issue in all those discussions; such a notion, and others like "first cause", "good/bad", "free will", etc. are subtle and rarely come without more or less hidden assumptions.

Furthermore, our perception is fantastically limited, and this isn't hidden to us: we're certainly aware, or should be, that what we know of reality is negligible, in comparison to what's actually happening out there right now / what has happened in the past.

It reminds me of a story of a family acquaintance, who was in Algeria a few decades ago (I think this was during the Algerian War[0]): she was in a bus and realized she forgot to take something (guess this generally qualifies as a "bad" thing); while she was outside of the bus, it exploded, killing its passengers ("good" thing for her, but hardly feels like a "good" thing overall).

> this is literally unknowable

This, I disagree: for example, direct experience (really direct, not sign interpretation) could very well be one may to know for sure. The problem is, even if we agree that such cases exist, and are genuine (why not), it seems that sharing the certainty of such experiences with others is indeed impossible, unless perhaps to others hit by the same storm.
