>> Rabbit can do everything Kafka does - and much more - in a more configurable manner.
Sure, if you're doing like 10's of MB/s. RMQ is fast compared to AK if you're not adding durability, persistence, etc. Try to run gigabytes per second through it though, or stretch across regions, or meet RTO when the broker gets overloaded and crashes.. Get your shovel ready! ;)

Kafka itself is dumb but scalable and resilient, it's the client ecosystem that's massive compared to RabbitMQ. Count 10 stream processing, connectivity, ingestion or log harvesting platforms that use RMQ as it's backend, then name 10 languages that have supported libraries for RMQ.. then compare that to Kafka.
I get that, and I've been in the camp warning people of that many times, but I think it's an interesting situation where so much essentially public data is on a private platform. What happens if YouTube shuts down tomorrow? A, would society accept it and B, would they be bailed out? For the latter, what happens next?
Honestly, I would not be against one of these massive services failing spectacularly to 'teach us a lesson' about trusting all our important things to private corps.
I don't think it is common. But probably the best option in this case.

The next best alternative is introducing a new construct for this version. But then you either risk people still using the old one or you need to break lots of fine code by removing the old construct. So in this case the "in place" upgrade made the most sense.

Tying it to the declared compiler version is much like Rust's edition system or Perl's versioning, except tacked into an existing identifier rather than a separate variable. (The downside being that you are forced to make this upgrade at some point if you want to raise your minimum toolchains version. )
Questions left unanswered:

- When are go multi-module workspaces best used?

- What should you use for the module-path argument to `go mod init` if you don't ever intend to share the repo or you don't yet know where you will be sharing it?
Seeing billboards and print ads consume brain cycles. Walking into a store takes energy, even stealing some prepaid cards consumes calories. That they require you do some effort doesn't mean it's ethical to consume their resources without exchanging a bit more.
In terms of the detection model, I trained it on a dataset of fairly clear satellite imagery, so it should work even on aircraft at their normal cruising altitudes. For off-the-shelf-drone altitudes, a slightly different dataset may have to be used (I'm thinking normal photographs of aircraft types might do the trick).

All the other stuff, like the onboard deployment of MinIO and an onboard inference server should work regardless of the altitude -- it becomes a question of the hardware involved at that point.
As someone involved in both the crypto and the VR space, why were the first testers crypto people rather than VR people?

It would have been a much easier pitch to those of us who already understand the caveats of this technology at present state, and we're already believers in the idea. Many VR people are using their current generation HMD's for productivity already despite the downsides.

It seems like it would have been a more obvious route to the type of people who are most likely to be your early adopters, and additionally avoids associating your operation with crypto which still carries a stigma.

I have a lot of respect for Vitalik, but I'd much rather hear the opinion of someone like Thrillseeker for a device like this.

Russell Brand was not banned or kicked off the internet, Google, or even YouTube. His videos got demonetized because YouTube had ethical and contractual obligations to their advertisers and users. Focus on the penalties Brand has actually suffered -- demonetization of his videos, cancellations of some tour dates, book publisher getting squeamish -- rather than extrapolating the incident into an imaginary global soul-crushing dystopia.

It may turn out that Brand got wrongfully accused, though I doubt it, given that multiple women who don't know each other doing that seems unlikely, especially given Brand's self-admitted promiscuity and sex addiction, and cringe behavior towards women you can easily find. But if he's not guilty then he'll get his YouTube monetization back, and thanks to the UK's libel laws he would make a small fortune suing the TV channel and newspapers and the accusers.

I don’t think so. Email is low barrier to entry, and a constitutionally protected email account would protect people’s ability to communicate electronically, especially if the government is going to communicate via email with you.

USPS can handle it all. SMS 2FA should also be replaced with something that is legally protected no matter what, so it doesn’t matter if you get blocked by Google/Apple/ATT/Verizon/etc, you can still live your life.

Same for an electronic money account.

Well, no, not python's fault -- clearly the distros', and they probably should be blamed. But a PEP saying python2 and python3 should invoke the correct interpreter would help motivate the distributions.

(This is isomorphic to the usual victim-blaming discussion. Fault and blame vs some ability to make a difference; it's a shame that correctly pointing out a better strategy is both used to attack victims and attacked for attacking victims in the cases when that wasn't intended.)
An important part of journaling is the composition process. I have to explicitly structure a thought for it to make any sense in a written form. This is a slow, intentional process. I've had one-page journal entries take over an hour to compose and write, though I usually average 20 minutes per page.

In the limited number of attempts I've tried with audio journaling, it always comes across as stream-of-consciousness. I like to think out loud already, so I end up removing my anchor -- the written document -- and just chase one thought after another after another. I don't see how I'd be able to maintain the quality of my journal (or other written works) if I didn't have my easily re-referenced existing document.

Have you had success with audio/video journals? Any tips?

Our old exchange student from Turkmenistan insisted that there was an Apple store in a couple of malls in Ashgabat, but I showed her that Apple doesn't officially sell anything in TM. She sent me some pictures and it was a complete clone of the official Apple store. Down to outfits, displays, the whole thing. Selling brand new, smuggled in, iPhones/iPads/etc. It was wild.

Its also been odd that these tech-jobs offer some SaaS and their customer is some faceless person on the other side of the internet, and who strictly communicate over the internet with folks, but yet need to require folks be in the office to get work done. your clients are online, your workers are online; your workers can work anywhere, just as your clients will also be anywhere.

I'd like you to honestly think deeply about this a few times. Has this really been the same as it was a few decades ago? Why do some countries or areas feel far more comfortable with leaving children around with men, while it seems the US in particular has trouble even imagining a dad wants to spend time with his kids? And why is it primarily the men, when it's become more and more obvious women are just a much perpetrators?

Yes, false accusations and ruining people's lives over them has been a thing since we exist. You ever wonder why so many people freak out the moment they are accused, despite being innocent? But as a society, we can fight and be critical about this. Just like we got rid of witch hunts, so too can we think twice about companies facing next to zero repercussions by hiding in the crowd despite their disproportional power.

All I'm saying is, if you're the coward throwing others under the bus over your own gain, don't be surprised if a rebel fed up with your cowardice decides to do the same. Turnabout's fair play, after all.

And for real: it's just an apology. I'm not telling these companies to pay damages or get dragged to court. It's just a 5 minute effort to say "Oh we were too quick in our judgment, sorry about that". It isn't enough, but it's the bare minimum they can do without having to drag them to court to force it or threatening to take away their position of power. The fact they can't even do that speaks volumes.
Sure. But the attacker needs to actually get in, which is considerably harder than getting into a hotel room. But more relevantly, the kinds of countermeasures that get you from level 1 to a higher level don’t seem likely to help at all — if some evil-maids or otherwise fully compromises a machine hosting a FIPS 140-2 level 4 HSM, they likely get the unrestricted ability to perform cryptographic operations using keys protected by that HSM, but they get this by using the HSM’s normal API. If they can convince the HSM to export its keys to another HSM (oops) or to otherwise leak the key material, they get the key material. But this doesn’t seem like it has much to do with physical attacks against the HSM.

Now if someone evil-maid attacks the HSM itself, that’s a different story. Any good HSM should resist this, especially one found in a portable device. And this is because you can steal an entire important corporate laptop or other portable device without necessarily raising an quick alarm, whereas I have trouble imagining someone walking off with the HSM out of an IBM mainframe or with an AWS HSM without the loss being noticed immediately.

(To be fair, in the mainframe case, some crusty corporations seem to have a remarkable ability to fail to notice obvious crypto problems like their public facing certificates expiring. But a loss of an entire HSM from a secure large cloud datacenter will, at the very least, immediately trigger “elevated failure rates” or whatever they like to call it…)
"Trust the science" is dumb, but "trust that the single-most reviewed medical studies of the past decade with 30k+ participants aren't outright bullshit" is enough for me. The risk for those studies is probably closer to what happened with Astrazeneca, where a very rare side effect got missed because 30k people weren't enough to detect it.

I think skepticism is healthy to a degree, but ironically, the more adversarial the general public is to an area of study the more rigorous it usually is.
We need buildings to live in, but not the ones we have. To create places where people can walk or ride to everything they need in their daily life, many existing structures will need to be re-purposed. And it turns out that it's very hard to turn commercial into residential.

https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/office-space/

And that's just the building part. You also have to deal with the fact that cities are already overstressed, creating ecological disasters as soon as you go outside of the privileged core. Don't look at walkable Manhattan or Brooklyn without also looking at uber-ugly Bronx or Newark, which have to exist to serve those central cores. Or the dumps all over New York state. Or the toxic plumes in the air and water. The transit system, the water and sewage, trash removal, etc. would all creak under the strain of even more population, not to mention the problem of increased demand making housing even more unaffordable for all but the most privileged. Repeat for LA, Houston, Chicago, etc. No, "everyone move to the mega-city" is not the solution some think it is. The fact is that big cities aren't free of these problems; they just export them elsewhere.

It actually turns out that it would be a lot easier to convert residential in commercial than the other way around, in suburbs and small towns where they are. There's still lots of complexity, of course. You have to fix zoning. You have to make that "good infrastructure" work in many places instead of a few. You have to convince people to pay for it, and yes, there will still be a lot of tearing down and rebuilding with all of the environmental costs that entails. As GP mentioned. It's not easy by any means, but creating less car-centric environments this way is more feasible than mass migration to cities and more sustainable too. Some day cars will not be necessary for the majority of the population, I really do hope we get there in my lifetime, but that day is not today and getting there will take orders of magnitude more effort than the "abolish cars now" crowd seems capable of imagining.

Magic-wand thinking doesn't get us anywhere. Practical, incremental improvements do. And reducing particulates from tires is one of those.
YouTube is not a court and Brand has not been found guilty of anything.

YouTube is enforcing its ToS, which Brand freely agreed to when he chose to begin using their platform to post his conspiracy theories.

> And it pads the pockets of shareholders

YouTube runs adverts on videos which are not part of the partnership program, but it is unclear (as far as I can see from this thread) whether they run adverts on de-monetised videos. Do you have a source either way?

In any case, YouTube did $29.9 billion of revenue in FY2022. The Guardian estimated that Brand's YouTube videos, of which there are five per week, likely gross him (pre-tax) in the order of $5,000. That's around $1.3m a year.

So yes, if YouTube is still running ads against Brand's YouTube videos then "the shareholders" are benefitting from an additional $1.3m per year which would otherwise have been paid out to Brand, but now that you know the aggregate benefit to YouTube constitutes 0.000044% of the service's annual revenue, I'm curious as to whether you think this had any bearing whatsoever on the decision to demonetise him, in line with their Terms of Service?
So many AI predictions rely on a complete suspension of everything we know about how markets behave.

Could AI usher in a new era of wealth where nobody has to work? Sure, if you ignore the fact that the most likely scenario is that the value is captured by the current owning class, which is already well underway.

On the flip side of possible scenarios, could AI start improving itself and lead to an upward spiral of improvement? I can entertain that idea, but I think we'll find that most types of AI innovation won't engineer themselves outside the box that is market need and product-market fit. History has proven over and over again that innovation for innovations' sake gets a few moments in the sun before being quickly forgotten if it doesn't have actual utility.
Nah the EDNS Client Subnet is explicitly optional and the RFC makes it very clear you're not required to implement it. They are very open that they, archive.is, are violating the spec. They maybe could justify a SERVFAIL but instead they just lie in the response.

It's actually funny from time to time archive.is works just fine via cloudflare I'm assume when whatever IP list archive.is is using happens to be missing some of cloudflares addresses. You can tell they use a specific cloudflare targeting list because issuing a DIG from you local computer without the EDNS Client Subnet works perfectly fine.

There is a big problem with creating actually free assets:

* If everything will look completely different from original game majority of fans not gonna like it even if quality gonna be really high. As you can guess fans of old games are really opinionated and hard to pleasure.

* If they looks too similar to original game then Ubisoft can righfully claim copyright infrigement so it will be impossible to distribute assets in Debian, Google Play and other stores.

Actually same problem is valid for any open source game reimplementations except simulators where you can claim that you copying some original and not someone else commercial game.

It's very much possible to just take VCMI and HoMM3 mechanics and create completely different game on top of it. Engine was intentionally designed for modding after all, but again it's unlikely that many fans will play it.

I personally had my eyes opened during the run up to the Iraq war in 2022. Pretty much every single news org with national recognition seemed completely incapable of the smallest amount of critical thought. They would basically parrot the whitehouse/etc press releases, and never question a single thing in them.

So, the behavior you point out is enabled by politicians who show such bad judgment in such a critical area, and yet few if any lost their positions over their votes. I personalty have been wondering for the past few years how many of our leaders are actually there of their own accord, rather than put there by various backroom cabals of business leaders and intelligence (foreign and domestic) agencies that want to put their thumbs on the scale with a representative or dozen. How would you ever know, except by their behavior.

I suppose if the payor disputed the payment the bank could ask you to show proof to support their investigation. Otherwise the bank is left trying to determine what happened with no evidence. Even if you have a paper check the other party could deny writing it or signing it. Banks have procedures for resolving disputes like that -- those happen much more often with credit cards than with paper checks.

Mobile deposit probably feels strange and risky to a lot of people older than 40 or 50, so telling them to hang onto that paper check gives some comfort. Back in the '70s and '80s banks would mail your canceled checks to you with your statement, people my age got used to that. Then banks stopped doing that, and they stopped needing the paper at all. I suppose some people my age or older find that disorienting having grown up with paper checks filed in shoeboxes.
