I see your point, but in my case above the term usage is correct. By stating "minimum wage level understanding" I am equating the work they do to be equal to what a untrained minimum wage employee is expected to be able to accomplish. These "boot camp developers" are not engineers, and are barely developers at all. They are logical pattern repeaters, with an extremely short list of logical patterns they know how to use. Presented with the open ended work actual software developers are commonly tasked, they reach for an ungodly large number of supports and produce these modern code crap piles that are growing oversized data centers, duplicating all over the landscape. They're fantastic for selling more servers, and that is about all these boot camp developers are good for - we end up cleaning up their crap piles anyway.
It is always fascinating reading VC hit pieces like these to see just how many leaps of faith they must make and bags of salt they must eat to justify their investments the way they do.

A month+ is incredibly stale. OSM releases full dumps on a weekly basis for free, so cost is not a reasonable excuse. It is also not normal for updates to Google Maps from business owners to take that long. I have on multiple recent occasions seen businesses push update same day in my small city. It's a shame they went through the trouble of rebranding without addressing users' most common complaint, which is that data is oftentimes wrong. Keeping it up-to-date with OSM and pushing people to contribute would help significantly.

I finally put all my network gear/rack in the garage, where the cable and fiber are, then proceeded to run an outdoor ethernet cable to my office with a small ubiquity PoE switch.

Before that I was running a flat ethernet cable (like you suggested) and tucking it between the carpet and the wall making it invisible for the most part.

Wifi is good in the house, but the speeds I get on wired just blow it out of the water.
Because they declared bankruptcy - that's how bankruptcy works. You declare bankruptcy, the gov't puts someone in charge of managing the sale of your assets in order to reimburse your creditors.

A particular video essay comes to mind (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rStL7niR7gs). Since government must ultimately be held in place by use of force no matter how you structure it, it's unsurprising that the sub-organization responsible for exerting force is the ultimate decider of what's actually allowed.
This is sensible advice. They are very convenient.

However I will clarify that although you can get great speeds with a flat Ethernet cable (thanks to modern manufacturing?), you must not use these to carry power.

I want to make this clear because first cables tend to describe themselves as Cat6 or whatever. This may be close enough in terms of signal/speed, but these don't use a thick enough wire guage to do PoE (Power over Ethernet), let alone PoE+.

(I am reasonably sure real Cat6 cables must support at least PoE, but it is hard to be certain when standards are behind paywalls.)
> Are the government typically allowed to seize and sell your assets and possibly redistribute the proceeds before you’ve even been to court?

Yes, asset seizure is the norm for law enforcement in America.

> What if he needed those funds for his legal defence?

The money is in a limbo state, as it might be proceeds from crimes. The justice system doesn't want you using proceeds from crimes in any way, shape or form.
This has nothing to do with his criminal trial, this has to do with his company filing for bankruptcy. If he didn't want the gov't to auction of his companies assets in order to satisfy his creditors... then he shouldn't have declared bankruptcy, as that's exactly what happens in a bankruptcy proceeding.
If you pull new ethernet, make it cat 6 or better. Times change.

I'm not using ethernet beyond the switch room, I threw money at the problem and got a 3 pack of those wi-fi 6 Nest units which form a mesh network. Works fine, covers the house and front and back yards. Costco is selling a 4 pack of those for $450 which is even better. https://www.costco.com/google-nest-wifi-pro,-wi-fi-6e,-4-pac...

It'd be way cheaper to drill some holes and run ethernet in your situation though.
The Wavefunction Collapse Algorithm
Parents who do not want their children to be indoctrinated by "gender ideologues" were labelled as "domestic terrorists" by the Attorney General [1] so the term does not seem to mean what most people think it does.

Having said that Antifa comes to mind as do a number of similar groups, past and present. As to whether you call these "communist" or not does not really matter as political terminology is intentionally vague - anything to the right of a "progressive" soon becomes "extreme-right/fascist/nazi/...", anything to the left of a "hard-line conservative" soon becomes "communist/socialist/anarchist/...".

So yes, there is plenty of violence on the left side of the political spectrum, probably more than there is on the right side of the spectrum. Take e.g. the 2020 BLM riots as an example for what this looks like. The media tends to tone down their reporting when it comes to the former which lead to terms like "fiery bur mostly peaceful protests" [2,3] while exaggerating the latter but the facts speak for themselves.

Violence is violence no matter whether it comes from the right, the centre of the left. A rock thrown by a Muslim does as much damage as one thrown by an atheist or a flag-waving "patriot".

I have no problem with javascript. I think javascript can greatly add to the web experience.

"Add to" being the keyword there. Not "in lieu of".

You want to add javascript to enhance UI/UX outside the scope of what can be accomplished with plain html? Great!

You want to use javascript to add a feature that simply can't be done over plain html? Great!

You want to use javascript to hide a bunch of text on a public webpage, so those who have javascript disabled on their web browsers can't see the text, and will be forced to enable javascript, just to look at some text on a webpage? Unforgivably garbage design!

I will remind you that github used to work perfectly fine without requiring javascript merely a year ago. At least for basic perusal.

I think it is extremely silly design if I'm required to enable javascript, just to look at some text on a public webpage.

Again, nothing against javascript. But don't make it mandatory is what I'm saying, especially for casual browsing.

There really isn’t any reasonable defense for these examples or the lack of the speedy hearing.

But I’m not against civil forfeiture if practiced better with better safe guards.

Every year the government takes 30%+ of the money I make via taxation. Unelected administrative functionaries lay down laws that can massively change the value of your property.

I’m not going to cry if the government keeps money whose origin you can’t explain. By law, I have to file tax returns that explains my income. There isn’t a huge difference. These kind of seizures makes organized crime much easier to fight.

But again, a lot of these examples look more like straight theft.

Also, law enforcement shouldn’t get to keep the money it seizes. It’s a perverse incentive. Should just go into the general treasury.
Ask HN: How to Break into DevRel Roles
Hello HN,

If you knew the number of attempts, the outcome would say something of the probability.

So to your last paragraph, yes, we can say something about the odds of survival any given period, because we see many periods.

But we see only one instance of our survival, and we inherently need to be here to see it, so our survival in general for the whole period tells us nothing of how likely (few events reducing our chances) or unlikely (many such events) our survival was in the past, because no matter how unlikely we wouldn't be here to discuss the probability if we didn't survive, and unlikely things do happen.
The ethics argument is asinine. If you don’t like the rules, don’t use the product or start your own company. Just don’t be an insufferable whiner about it.
Governments are basically becoming organized crime syndicates who use their state monopoly on violence to enforce taxes on their subjects. Yes, they do some legitimate good at times, but even mafia gangs support their community and police it.

Doug was at times blunt, but he was fundamentally a kind and generous person, and he had a dedication to his vision and to the people who worked alongside him that has to be admired. He will be missed.

I worked at Cycorp (not directly with Doug very often, but it wasn't a big office) between 2016 and 2020

An anecdote: during our weekly all-hands lunch in the big conference room, he mentioned he was getting a new car (his old one was pretty old, but well-kept) and he asked if anybody could use the old car. One of the staff raised his hand sheepishly and said his daughter was about to start driving. Doug gifted him the car on the spot, without a second thought.

He also loved board games, and was in a D&D group with some others at the company. I was told he only ever played lawful good characters, he didn't know how to do otherwise :)

Capitalism is not a monolithic idea, and lots of capitalist scholars have challenged the validity of, variously:

- police writ large

- police monopolies

- any given police policy and its interaction with capital

Anyways, if police are supposed "to defend capital", then a policy of stealing capital from private individuals is exactly not capitalistic.

If you have multiple clusters of devices, I can see that.

Ideally, they'd be doing their job and screening these people before they paid for a domain and started hosting phishing sites or malware, but you know, assuming they were catching these issues proactively and basically as soon as the payment was processed I'd be okay with them taking the money before shutting the domain down. Sure, it'd still be a company profiting from stolen money, but if it can't be returned it might as well be wasted.

I think the issue is that as soon as scammers realized they were throwing their money away they'd stop buying up .US domains and find some other means to trick people. Probably just using other TLDs and/or registrars which means GoDaddy loses their income stream either way.
They do, I first came to know that from seeing ublock origin updates gets to other browsers first. The author then says that this is because it is Firefox recommended extension and have to go through the extensive review.
not in any particular order

- i have better things to do with my life than doing those tests

- i have now fiber and proper ethernet wiring, so i can't test even if i want

- moca and docsis usually operate at different frequencies. if it's not bottom shelf equipment - why should be there any interaction ? it's same like saying that because you have cable internet your tv will have problems with tv programming

- most of docsis modems top out at 1002mhz iirc. moca starts at 12xx

- moca doesn't just starts running. in the beginning iirc it figures out what frequency range is usable. you can also lock it to specific range i think

- i never saw xfinity provisioning channels even close to 1000mhz range

"Flat" increments "number" if and only if it has a separate post box. If you have several flats behind the same box in a common front door - a common set-up in the UK when a larger house has been converted into several flats - then as far as the postcode system is concerned, those flats don't exist; since people still write "Flat 3, 11 Wisteria Drive ..." on letters this creates various issues with denormalised addresses.
There's also voltage glitching which has been used with great success as well[1][2].

Canadian government just keeps taking Ls in this saga. Facebook and Google aren't going to give in to your extortion. Linking to websites is free, and always will be. Just kill the bill so everyone can move on.
Don’t be misled. This is not government trying to protect Canadian journalism. This is a few rich, mostly billionaire-owned telecom/media companies working as hard as they can to keep out competition.

It’s not Google’s fault that Canadian media oligopolists have no interest in paying for good journalism. Their only interest is in continuing to profit from lackluster offerings while holding down the pay of journalists by ensuring they have very few employment options in the country.

It might be okay if civil forfeiture were allowed as is but with the owner having an absolute entitlement to a jury case and treble damages against the police if they lose.

In theory it already is a constitutional right to Levy a civil trial against the police for forfeiture. And any civil trial with dollar value more than 20 is entitled to a jury.
