I love nodejs, it's my go-to language for server side stuff.

Even with that bias though, I have to admit that it's awful for typical command line script stuff.

Dealing with async and streams and stuff for parsing csv files is miserable (I just wrote some stuff to parse and process hundreds of gigs of files in node, and it wasn't fun).

Python is the right tool for that job IMHO.

Also, weirdly, maybe golang? I just came across this [1] and it has one of my eyebrows cocked.

This is framed wrong: It isn't UK against "Big Tech" it's the UK government against privacy and, to some extent, basic logic. That is, the UK government demanded something that's impossible to deliver, and would have ruined the privacy rights of its own citizens had it been able to force companies to deliver the next closest thing which actually got the government its core demands of the police being able to snoop on everyone's messages.

The dialogue was original to the film, but in terms of plot and characters, Umberto Eco actually thought that Casablanca was full of clichés, and that this was the secret of his success: he titled his essay “Casablanca, or, The Clichés are Having a Ball” (1994), and wrote “Two cliches make us laugh. A hundred cliches move us.” https://biblioklept.org/2013/05/26/casablanca-or-the-cliches...
> I hate that the jq command is always some indecipherable string in the middle of the script

It might be worthwhile to just learn how jq works. At the end of the day, you need to learn some language to parse json. I hate DSLs too, but I cannot think of anything as useful and concise as jq.

> but that ends up being at least as nasty as the JQ script

That's exaxtly why jq is so nice. Nice alternatives just don't exist
Are you fundamentally dissatisfied with the current limitations of our understanding and believe they need improvement or do you believe they ought to be abandoned? Just so stories can certainly be unsatisfying as they are insufficient pictures we feel compelled to create even when we lack too much in fine details like assembling bits of bone into fanciful and sometimes wrong creations that never walked the earth but consider that logically the fidelity of such pictures ought to improve over time as those fine details are studied. Changes even revolutionary changes in our understanding of the fine details are apt go go unnoticed by most until such time as they fundamentally alter large scale pictures people outside the sciences are apt to want to attend to.

Consider the wing there is reason to believe that it may have been beneficial before it was useful for flight.

For TCP in Linux the only thing I know of is net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing=2 which is still slower than clamping at the edge. You can also run into weird slowdowns in cases with packet loss even after the initial discovery. If you don't have a way to clamp but absolutely need the interface to have jumbo enabled for local traffic performance it's probably the best fallback but even then I'm not sure it's worth the extra headache it causes.

I'm skeptical of the 'dopamine detox' idea. It sounds too good to be true. I'm not sure how to explain other than writing out what I think it boils down to: "Here's your problem in an easy-to-understand way, and here's a simple-sounding thing you can do to fix it". The over-simplifications and implied promise of happiness and self-improvement sets off the same doubt for me as a lot of advertising and dark patterns.

I find your idea that capture was impossible bizarre. It would certainly have been difficult, and it could also have been unlikely to succeed. But the fact that capture was not even attempted turned the operation into a show of weakness.

Many governments assassinate undesirable people around the world. It doesn't take that much effort. Capturing them alive and bringing them home is much more effective as a show of strength. And having them face a public trial can be an effective way of demonstrating that your actions were justified.
That's revisionist history. A king only has power insofar as a people exist to buy into the idea that he has power, hence why kings required armies from the start. As we know, kings did not exist prior to farms that needed protection. This is not a coincidence. Only from the circumstances of material preconditions could such divine rights even be imagined, whether it be kings or founders of PayPal.

I sat with the Flexport logistics teams for months on end. I watched them move hundreds of shipments. Maybe they concealed all the secret sauce for when I got up to the go the bathroom but nothing I saw was particularly notable. They had rules like "make sure the ISV is filed at least 3 days before expected arrival" and "if the origin agent hasn't picked up the can after more than 2 days, call Joe at the destination warehouse and tell him that it will be late."

Designing these rules are not something that computers can handle particularly well (though Generative AI might change even that), but applying them consistently is something that computers do way better than humans (for the reasons that I mentioned in my previous comment). Yes, there will be exceptions. That's okay, we can also build in logic to handle exceptions.

The fundamental process flow we're trying to automate here is not self-driving cars. It's not cognition, perception, or reasoning. It's not even really complex decision making. The inputs (while not perfect) are actually pretty well quantized. People love to handwave and say that it's so hard and that it's naive to try and reduce it down to a computer program, but I've never had anyone compellingly explain __why_.

For what it's worth, this is not a minimization of the work done by my former colleagues and similar professionals. My colleagues were smart, hardworking, mission driven and gritty. It's just that the work that they did could be more effectively done by computers. That's all.

For what it's worth, I don't have a computer science degree. I studied one of those useless underwater basketweaving majors. That must explain the overall sense of confusion.

Well I would still like my bank to support something other than fucking SMS for two-factor authentication.
the absurdity of “we’re being censored for our conservative views” is that the primary target of banning hasnt been a “conservative viewpoints”.

for example, if someone is banned for saying “death to non-whites”, theres a pretty good chance they’re being banned for advocating genocide, not because they’re conservative.

or if someone was banned for denying that covid was real, they weren’t banned for “conservative views”. whether we agree with the reasoning or not, they were banned for denying covid when the sites had made clear this topic would result in a ban.

i’ll repeat what i’ve said many times before. this idea that banning is somehow new, or is some creepy definition of censorship is nonsense. site owners and moderators have had rules for their online spaces since the beginnings. and just like real world spaces, people get removed constantly. it’s not new. it’s not weird. it’s not shocking.

That's why I put the live caveat. Granted, decryption of previously recorded conversations and decryption of new conversations are two different threat models.

Out of curiosity, can MITM of new connections be set up fairly easily with current protocols? (let's say TLS / web cert PKI and Telegram)

For the TLS case, they'd need to forge a cert for the other end and serve it to a targeted user. Anything broader would risk being picked up by cert transparency logs. Which limits the attack capability to targeted, small-scale and requires control of key internet routing infrastructure? Not ideal, but at least we're limiting mass continuous surveillance.

For Telegram, the initiation is via DH [0] and rekeyed every 100 messages or calendar week, whichever comes first, with interactive key visualization on the initial key exchange [1]. That seems a lot harder to break.

> In what world do you think the people who own everything don't also have all the power?

A world where "Realize capital has no market value without labor to work it" is true cannot see power reset in the hands of those with capital as it asserts that capital has no value without labour, which means that labour holds all the power.

I don't know what world that was meant to refer to. It did not specify, nor was it it written by me in order to specify now. You may have accidentally pressed the wrong reply button?

> You cannot decouple ownership from politics.

That may be true, but the concept of ownership doesn't come from capitalism. Socialism, for example, also describes ownership. You cannot couple ownership with capitalism.
Out of curiosity, in what context has IoT telemetry been meaningful to the consumer? In other words, what data has been gathered that can be sold or otherwise abused?

Except it doesn't work.

It's easy to coax BBR into converging on using 20% of a shared link instead of 50% (cohabiting with one other stream).

The inverse is true and it's easy to get BBR to hog 80% of a link instead of 50% (cohabiting with one other stream). If you're happy for other people to steal bandwidth from you with greedy CCAs then go ahead and ratelimit yourself. I'm not.

They are, but in practice there's little difference in the ends because you're getting the same feedback (did I pass the right type, yes or no). Like calling someone on a cell phone vs. a land line.

If the type of data you're passing around is erratic beyond development (where, just like TypeScript, a function-based approach illuminates incorrect data being passed around), you're writing bad code and TypeScript is nothing more than a crutch.

I expect most hardline TypeScript people to disagree, but type errors are the least of my concerns thanks to the above approach. It's not just an opinion; it's based on experience/evidence [1].

Mostly, but not only. There's also user support, and PinePhones are much cheaper to build.

> What's the difference between this and a nix-in-docker?

> If you run nix inside a container (e.g. nixos/nix or nixpkgs/nix-flake) then you are indeed fetching packages using the Nix store. However, each container will have its own Nix store instead of de-duplicating at the host level.

> nix-snapshotter is intended to live on the host system (sibling to containerd and/or kubelet) so that multiple containers running different images can share the underlying packages from the same Nix store.
I’m sure that’d be the defense they’d make but remember that laws and courts aren’t board games. If someone passes a law forbidding anyone from providing access to something or assisting with that access, you can’t rule out getting dragged into court because your DNS service helped someone get content their ISP’s servers blocked. Google or Cloudflare have the same risk but also orders of magnitude more lawyers than Wikipedia.

Thanks, it's a brittle hack as you acknowledge but at least there won't be false negatives. Funny how often I wind up crawling back to Perl.

The problem here is literally that someone hardcoded "IT'S ALWAYS LINEFEED" into an algorithm that could work equally well with any record separator character -- in fact probably with any record separator regex. I notice there's now `grep -z` which is one small step towards sanity... but the fully general problem is so easy and so useful to solve it's exasperating.

I guess I should stop complaining and submit a patch to grep to add a `--dont-use-linefeed-instead-use <arg>` option already.
Intrepid web developers reading this comment, please note that CORS is not, in fact, a protection mechanism. It's a way to relax the Same Origin Policy which is actually the protection relevant here. You don't need a CORS policy to protect a site from cross-site attacks, you need no CORS policy. Go ahead and make your little chat app, you're not at risk of having your messages stolen because of a lack of CORS headers.

The key thing to understand is an energy source includes both an amount and a quality.

For heat energy the quality is related to temperature. And is basically the percentage of it that can be converted to 'work'. For electricity the quality is near 100%.

So a heat pump moves low quality heat energy inside you house say at 65 degrees and dumps outside where it's say 90 degrees. The energy you move needs to increase in the amount of quality. The increase in energy comes from the electricity used to drive the pump.

This is called the Sonderweg theory . . . the idea that Germany somehow followed a unique historical path which none of the European powers did and which made Hitler's emergence more or less inevitable.

It's basically crap, as it blames the Germans for what happened even beyond the guilt which they should carry as the nation which elected Hitler into power. It denies the idea that such a dictator could dupe other nations into fascism, and that's both inaccurate and a dangerous assumption to make. It's basically a high-class academic version of "well, that could never happen HERE!"
