The key point is attack scalability, not that either voting system is inherently superior in terms of anonymity and transparency.

In Brazil, each voting machine is sealed off, air gapped. The only attack vector is in transit, when the votes for each machine are being transmitted to the regional electoral center, which then announces its results for the region. So it is possible to scale an attack if you somehow had the actor had access to the data in transit and was able to decode, tamper and sign the results again before reaching the regions servers. This for each region.

So yeah, while it is possible, I don't think this scales as well as people would think. No election in Brazil had any proof of tampering up to this day. Take that as you may, you can attack me personally, you can question the government's data, you can put in check how we even audit the system, but in decades of the system there isn't any hard evidence of large scale compromise of the electoral system.

Having said all that, I think all this talk serves more as a smoke screen for more pressing issues of large scale social manipulation through social media and fake news. My question then is why would anyone in their right mind attempt to compromise the electoral system itself if it is so much more effective to just manipulate public opinion by jeopardising traditional media trust, flooding message systems with fake news sources, use prominent political figures to spread anti-democratic ideas and leverage social media algorithms to radicalize voters?

The source of a config doesn't necessarily need to be from a config file. Config loading is abstracted. So it requires input, and signals provide no way to pass arguments, so it's not workable. See https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/3967

>mainstream but equally supernatural religion.

Scientology is verifiably and comprehensively different from most other non-cult religions by virtue of how it treats it's members and encourages them to act. Only one other religion of note has such "High control group" style features as discouraging psychiatry, discouraging interaction with non-Scientology family members, forcing through threat of blackmail members to do things, threatening the IRS and getting away with it, and generally treating members as resources.
I think you missed the point. For a petrolhead, a lithium fire is like a nuclear fire for a Green Part voter in Germany.
No, it's not enough to know when samples from different SDRs were taken, they must all be taken within a very small interval (tens of picoseconds in OP's example). What the SDRs really need is an electrical signal called a "trigger" that tells them to read their sensors at that exact moment which is what GP meant by plugging them in. You can use a second GPS enable device to generate that trigger but synchronizing those triggers using time of flight is very hard.
As others mentioned this is a libertarian/crypto site so it's going to gloss over the loss of labor union influence that really sped up in the 70s (we can argue later about why this happened).

> As someone with an econ degree, people advocating for a return to the gold standard are so weird to me. I totally understand people having objections to how central banks manage the money supply and the impacts that has on the economy, but that doesn't mean we should give up control of it completely.

I think you're probably thinking about it wrong. It's not a conventional policy proposal. I think the main factor is just naked mistrust of people like you (people with an econ degree, etc), leading people to seek out simple solutions you have no control over.

Another factor is people just getting high on pure ideology, and losing interest in solving actual problems in the pursuit of that ideology.

> you have to be 100% perfect in guessing when the cache file must be rebuilt

Or, you make reasonable assumptions that are correct in most cases, and rely on the user to provide hints as to when the cache should be invalidated.

Assuming your code, environment variables, and `args` are all factored into invalidating the cache, there are few situations in typical builds where using the cache is a bad idea. The biggest ones I can think of are if your build system is going out and fetching data itself to decide what to do, e.g. if you're downloading source code (e.g. a shared library) from an external source which may have updated it.

That said, if you're just arbitrarily pulling down whatever the latest build of libcurl is or something, you're going to have a bad time eventually anyway, so you should either put a static version into an arg or just put the download into a separate step; at which point the cache will correctly invalidate when it's changed.

Maybe if a build is only valid for 90 days from the build date or something (e.g. a preview build) and that's built into the binary at compile time, but in that case you can pass that in as an arg anyway and then your cache is going to be invalid every morning regardless.

I'm not going to say it's never an issue, but the same code with the same environment and the same arguments, built on the same platform with the same versions of the same dependencies, using the same versions of the same tooling to run the same commands and copy the same artifacts to the same locations should very nearly never produce a valid output now which is not an equally valid output in the future unless it is fetching and acting on external information (which can be easily parameterized).
I did the calculation manually from memory: 3.6 km/h = 1 m/s. 1 g = 9.8 m/s^2.

So, 100 km/h = 27.8 m/s. 36 m/s in 0.956 s is an average acceleration of 29.1 m/s^2. Divide that by 9.8 m/s^2 to get 2.96 g.

hello,

idk what "deploying" means in your case.

but in general: try to keep the old deployment online as long as possible and switch to the new one after validating it ...

eg.

1. deploy to a new lets call it "location" - which could be a new directory, a new set of container-images, versioned packages for your linux distro (service managed by systemd) etc...

2. run & validate the newly deployed service-version

3. switch - by certain means, heavily depended on your setup

this should keep the downtime within fractions of a second - if this is feasible for your application.

but in the end a viable solution depends on your actual deployment-process :)

This seems like the most interesting thing to happen to pop music in quite some time.

There's a famous story that's a good example here, I think: George Dantzig solved two open problems in statistical theory, which he had mistaken for homework after arriving late to a lecture at university.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Dantzig

> In 1939, a misunderstanding brought about surprising results. Near the beginning of a class, Professor Neyman wrote two problems on the blackboard. Dantzig arrived late and assumed that they were a homework assignment. According to Dantzig, they "seemed to be a little harder than usual", but a few days later he handed in completed solutions for both problems, still believing that they were an assignment that was overdue. Six weeks later, an excited Neyman eagerly told him that the "homework" problems he had solved were two of the most famous unsolved problems in statistics. He had prepared one of Dantzig's solutions for publication in a mathematical journal. This story began to spread and was used as a motivational lesson demonstrating the power of positive thinking. Over time, some facts were altered, but the basic story persisted in the form of an urban legend and as an introductory scene in the movie Good Will Hunting.

In general this segment is dying off, chasis are being reused for 10+ years in the market, tons and tons of special edition and reissues. most of the new work is being done in the Hypercar segment which is almost just a nonsensical money-fight space.

Alternative platforms are a great way to sharpen ones chops, and as well be an early newcomer to a potentially engaging, large-scale platform of new users who are tired of the mainstream, of which there are plenty.

For the same reason that one might learn Lua to write a quick crank app for the play.date machine .. or write a synth plugin for Zynthian.

Alternative platforms are, for a passionate hacker/coder/software person, an extraordinary playground for creative development, both personal and product-wise.

All I'm saying is, sometimes it is great to shed the cruft of modern platform development, and have a look at how things could be done - alternatively - in a way that is nevertheless future-useful.

The constraints of developing an algorithm at great length in the Amiga environment, may then result in a value increase when you port the right bits elsewhere .. many a bit of C has led such a slippery life, you know...

Unity has built a very impressive engine and runtime.

With that being said, I have never had the desire to use it (or any other engine). Perhaps I'm a minority here, but I dislike engines and I dislike the idea of "building my own engine."

I think you should set out to make the game. You begin by creating a window. Then you draw some pixels or render a texture. You add events and controls. You make the game logic and states. Then you have a game. It can take as little as a hundred lines of code to have a basic game up and running.

From there, you make the thing you want to create. No more, no less.

I'm confused why you think fast CI/CD doesn't matter. In an ideal world, every commit you make goes through the full pipeline and ideally it's so fast that you get immediate feedback.

The only reason that you're delaying code going through the pipeline is that it's slow.
It lacks a whole slew of things you would expect in a GP language, or requires you to jump through massive hoops to achieve the same results.

The reason is due to the oil shocks.

As stated in a comment below:
> The post-war growth in America was largely driven by cheap and abundant domestic oil... The oil crises of 1973 and beyond were the proximate result. But our economy as a whole never really recovered;

While lots of things contributed, this is almost certainly the case. Energy is an input into everything. Our current standard of living exists mainly due to energy and figuring out productive/efficient ways to consume energy.

For example if we retained all of our knowledge, all of our productive know how, but were banned from using fossil fuels and electricity we'd be essentially back to pre-industrial standards of living. When you think about it, it's self-evident, but we can't do anything modern without consuming enormous amounts of energy. Transportation, shipping, computing, agriculture, communication, heating manufacturing all of these are essentially energy consumption endeavors.

More expensive energy means all of these factors because significantly more expensive. The cost of your food goes up if every input is now paying more for energy. If maintaining a standard of living is now more expensive then cost of labor goes up without any improvement in standard of living. This drives inflation. Increasing the price of energy probably is likely a more broad economic driver of inflation than lowering interest rates. Lowering interest rates drives asset price increases heavily, but much less so on commodity and day to day price increases. Eventually those asset price increases work their way back to housing and then drive labor, but it's not very direct. Increasing the cost of energy drives up the price of everything. The only thing that tops it is direct giving of money to people.

The 1970s oil shocks cost us an enormous amount in our standard of living and drove pure inflation. Just like the oil price increases of the past few years (along with supply/labor shortages) drove our recent bout of inflation. Oil dropped in early 2020 and so did inflation. Oil peaked in mid 2022 and so did inflation. Energy prices drive your economy - anything that notably increases the cost of energy will have ripple effects on the rest your economy.

All of these things are true and it's clear you know the problem space well! We avoid the primary "go brrrrr" performance issue with IPFS by using small private IPFS networks and never touching the noisy, CPU-intensive global network.

You didn't even mention the biggest time drain, which is getting everything to work well on Android and iOS! This is on track to dwarf all other time drains by 10x or more.

However, the amazing thing is, as full-of-warts as the stack we've chosen is, it isn't a clearly worse choice than the alternatives, from GUN, to Hypercore, to the Automerge space, to Braid, to Holochain, P2Ppanda, and so on. All the other attempts to build a general purpose stack have a few things they do well and a bunch of things they don't do well, or at all, or they have similar questionable longevity to something like OrbitDB.

But if you believe what we both believe (i.e. that users shouldn't have to depend on someone else's server or run their own just to gather online) what is to be done? It seems like you decided to roll up your sleeves and try. Maybe the necessary ingredient is PG's "Schlep Blindness" [1] where you have to be pretty naive or masochistic to get started but if you keep pushing you can make something really new and valuable.

I think the reason why the field is in this place is simply that a general purpose p2p stack for user-facing apps needs to do the impossible: it needs to build complex solutions to an actually very long list of heterogeneous problems, without clear knowledge of what those problems are and what form they take in production, because there aren't any successful, desktop + mobile peer-to-peer apps yet to provide that reality-tested information, unless you count WebRTC video calls, which only covers a small piece of the picture.

So we just have to push through. And it's fun! Also, please do DM or email me! I'd love to compare notes more deeply than would be possible here (same offer goes for others who are interested in these questions!): h [at] quiet.chat

> Yes. But that idea got lost in the fray.

I don't think so. One of the very first things that people learn when onboarding into microservices is the microservices tax, whose corollary is don't onboard onto microservices if there isn't a clear significant win that justifies all the tradeoffs.

Moreover, the main selling point of microservices is organizational. That's also right in the first lesson on microservices. If you're not working in a large team who owns a large project and wants to lower managerial overhead by splitting up the team, you need to try very hard to find a justification to peel off specific responsibilities from a service into an independent microservice. That's microservices 101.

Those who jump onto the microservicss bandwagon without having a concrete justification have only themselves to blame, and not any particular architectural style. They are making the piss poor decisions and blaming abstract concepts for their own mistakes.
yet they still support it all.
also, you dont want them to stick to some old tech. you want them to evolve and take the best from industry. imho, they are doing just that and they are very good at it.

> that is not culture, it's ignorant cruelty

Being ignorant and cruel does not make something separate from culture. Many things in culture are ignorant and cruel. Being demonstrably unhealthy and without benefit is also tangential to being part of culture. Even science is not separate from culture: science has a culture, with its own biases, as has been shown many times.

> Truth is the realm of science alone.

That's interesting. Mathematicians might say truth is the realm of mathematics alone. Philosophers might say they claim it, or nobody does. I think you just have to define what you mean by truth (is it eternal and unchanging?), and once you do that, you open the doors to a lot of other reasonable claimants. This is not an argument for relativism, this is me saying there are different kinds of truth, not that there is no such thing as truth, or that there is no such thing as falsity.
