That document has been going around for ages and is based on the same fundamental misunderstanding that one somehow can extend IPv4 in a way somehow, but remain compatible with IPv4-only clients.
This is just not possible.

Most of the other criticism is not relevant anymore, since we now have a lot of transition technologies that allow IPv6 clients to interoperate with IPv4 servers (this way around is possible since IPv6 is a superset of IPv4).
Overall we are now much further into the IPv6 migration than djb ever envisioned.
That's nonsense unless your the kind of person who says a cup of instant is indistinguishable from a freshly ground brew (and post covid there probably are many more people who can't).

The size and consistency of the ground coffee makes a huge difference in extraction of coffee and therefor the taste, so a grinder that can make a consistent, repeatable grind will be noticeable (perhaps not as noticable as purchased ground vs freshly ground), but for some the difference between instant, and fresh ground with a $50, $500, or $3000 isn't worth the price.

Your phone never needs (nor gets) a public IP either.

Pretty much every cell network gives the phone an IP on the subnet, and then uses NAT, or CG-NAT[1] to share the same public IPs for multiple mobile devices.

> EEPROMS, I assume, you can build your own programmer pretty easily?

Programming a EEPROM by bitbanging it from a microcontroller is a basic programming exercise. First, send a special unlock sequence according to the datasheet (usually with a lot of 0x55 0xAA). Next, put all the address bits on the address lines, strobe that in via a control line. Finally, put all the data bits on the data lines, strobe that in via a control line. You only need around 100 lines of code to create a basic programmer (although making a universal one capable of programming all existing models on the market would be non-trivial, as it requires a massive look-up table similar to the one in "flashrom").
It's great that AT&T offers static IPs, but I should charge them about $600 for my time because it took me 3.5 hours of playing games with the automated support line and explaining to their tech support what static IP addresses are, and that it doesn't matter "what version of Windows my servers are running."

Be careful with the satellite SOS feature. I accidentally left my 14 pro on the roof of my car when way outside of cell reception in rural Utah; it fell off and triggered the crash-triggered SOS feature. Wasted a bunch of emergency responder's time, which I felt awful about. Manually triggered SOS is great but I think enabling the crash triggered one is irresponsible.
> can't imagine what a "victim of harrasment" for such a thing would look like

Well, Drew's article gives a concrete example of a victim. But beyond this specific article, it is not difficult to find examples of people who were harassed when trying to be involved in an open source community. This is pretty much the reason why so many open source projects are adopting codes of conduct.
I like that. Maybe you could say the package collection forms a lattice, where there is only one state for any subset of packages no matter how you got there.
I'm one year in and hell yes. I wonder if Red Hat realize what they have here. Not just in silverblue but in Fedora.

I read a quora answer that estimated the Windows OS development budget at around 18 billion dollars, based on salaries. Imagine if Red Hat invested 2bn into Fedora to make it the Firefox of the desktop OS world. Just a 10% share is very significant against Microsoft.

They've come so far with so little, on the back of thousands of open source packages. That money could be used to keep those projects alive, and to sponsor them while they're being developed. Red Hat employees are already involved in a lot of them.

They said “once a major industrial war starts - the only end is mutual exhaustion”

I said I don’t see anything mutual about it. World War One was almost like that, but even then, the USA still was relatively fresh in November 1918, and, if fighting had gone on, the collapse of the western front would likely have raised morale for Britain and France.
It's not the comparison, it's that it's one of the things cryptocoins are actually useful for: You have people all over the world with GPUs, some of them want to pay the others for use of them, but their countries use different payment networks or the developers want to be able to automate it without forcing the users to all sign up with the same mercurial payment processor who could screw over any of the users at random.

Unfortunately it seems that "be excellent to each other" is not specific enough to be understood by everyone.

It's a trade-off. I'll probably have the feature on when I'm in the small plane (although the chance of it getting a signal post-incident is nearly zero, I imagine), but yeah, I don't think it's the appropriate trade-off for me on regularly-trafficked roads.

It sounds like the emergency features enable two-way communication, which is great, but I wonder if the procedures around that lead to more false positives. If they get an emergency signal and no further response, I suppose the appropriate assumption is to assume the worst, and send out responders. The PLB is unidirectional, so the procedures involve using the (regularly updated) contact info to see what the heck is likely going on. That'll get them to my cell phone (wouldn't have worked for you) and, failing that, to my emergency contacts -- and my parents (in my case) can reasonably say "try calling so-and-so, he should be with them", etc. Still takes responder time, but at least not a physical response until all other avenues are exhausted.
I'm the opposite. They're too slippery without a case. Also helps get rid of the camera bumps.

Interesting. The article doesn't say why the pilot ejected. If the jet were able to continue flying for hours in autopilot, maybe the pilot ejected a bit prematurely, no? Though it it continued flying I would expect it to be on ADS-B.
It's not that rare and a winning lottery ticket is definitely NOT a solid analogy. Over a decade, roughly one quarter of households move up an income quintile. Table 1 is good for a quick overview of the numbers: https://www.clevelandfed.org/publications/economic-commentar...

Now income mobility in the US has unfortunately been declining, the American Gini coefficient has been rising and this is a problem. But let's not sensationalize it.

As for hard work, grit, perseverance etc. - I had a teacher in elementary school who always drilled the saying "Work smarter, not harder" into our brains. It's simple advice but she got the priority right. Skills pay the bills. A software engineer or a plumber gets paid a lot more for an hour of their time than a day laborer. The day laborer comes out behind no matter how hard they work. It will always be this way, and anyone would be a fool to ignore it.

So you have to build skills from day one and never stop. That is something which is under your control.

I followed the "work smarter, not harder" creed for many years and it served me well. However, in middle age I came to realize that it's not the whole story. Ultimately if you want to do well in life, there are factors that are outside of your control, and factors that are within it. You are a fool if you don't influence everything you can - so while working smart may be more important than working hard, and the zip code you're born in may be more important than both, you still have to work hard.

You have to do everything and there are no excuses. If you don't someone will eat your lunch sooner or later.
Redis has a few features outside of k/v, like a good pub-sub implementation, that make it very useful in addition to a good DX and mature libraries.

Memcache on the other habd is just solid and mature. It also has some inertia as being a solid k/v cache. For example: NextCloud supports afaik both Redis and Memcache as caching engines but doesn't have FDB support.
I see a lot of misconceptions about using ML for compilers. You don't ask the model what instructions to emit. Instead, you prepare a set of passes which are guaranteed to preserve correctness (we already have hundreds of them). Then you ask the model - what passes should I apply and in what order.

Writing code to unroll a loop is trivial. The limitations of compilers are that almost all currently existing languages are too low level for optimization. ML has the potential to extract back this lost information. Basically the opposite of lowering an IR.
> Can you expand on this for me? Is this really a problem?

Sure, happy to: the issue here is that the user’s root might present multiple prospective validation paths, none of which have to agree on the total constructed set of permitted/denied name constraint subtrees. Path validation also doesn’t impose an order, meaning that two clients can (correctly!) disagree on the set of names that a validation path can issue.

Is it really a problem? Maybe: the various Web/Internet PKI standards aren’t clear about how to handle situations like this, and things that change the Web PKI to rely more heavily on correct extension handling have historically revealed lots of fragile/noncomplying clients.

> Would a cert be valid if the iCA cert that issued it is expired?

Nope, I made a mistake here: this wouldn’t be an issue, for the reason you’ve said.

(Having an ICA that expires every 90 days would impose other logistical challenges, however: you’d either need to include it in the server response along with the leaf, or lean heavily on an extension like AIA to retrieve the current ICA certificate.)

> If you're securing your internal network with bad algos but it never touches the wider internet, does it make a sound? Would this be better or worse than installing self-signed root CAs everywhere?

Probably no worse for the private network scenario, although I think the proposed solution here ends up confounding the public and private cases: the certs issued under a NC’d ICA would also be valid on the public Internet, and may end up intentionally or unintentionally depending on this behavior.

If I had to TL;DR my opinion here, I think it would be: “all of these things are solvable or addressable at the policy level, but the Web PKI has historically been brittle to assumptions that currently standardized things are correctly respected by the client ecosystem” :-)
It's harder to jam Starlink than GPS because the signals are directional, but if a government doesn't want you using it, they can just make the dishes illegal and throw you in prison for having one.
I predict that the real market that's going to get absolutely decimated is the gig economy. The quality of AI may not be top notch but it's an easy drop-in replacement for one-offs that people previously would have farmed out to places like Fiverr (voice overs, logo, clip art design, copy editing, etc).
This is a shame. I am going to have to migrate to an Android-based handset for the first time in 15 years because of this change.
This is quite under-appreciated. I've lost count of how many times NPM or PIP broke because of "2000 lines of error dumps". The only occasion is happens with Rust has to do with TLS, and I learned to handle that one quick. Otherwise, "cargo install" is the best package manager out there.
Not in my case. I never ever used a case since iPhone 4. Then I dropped my slippery XS Max two months in, cracked the back glass, and “repair” cost like 70% of a new phone. So it’s been living in the silicone case since, it’s no longer slippery and I don’t see the crack.

Because monopolies aren't illegal.
So, What's So Special About the Mill Scala Build Tool?
Most of the work in this space is not focused on neural compilation (having a ML model perform the transformation/entire compilation), but on replacing heuristics or phase ordering, where the issue of correctness falls back onto the compiler. For pretty much exactly the reasons you mentioned, neural compilation isn't really tractable.

This specific paper focuses on phase ordering, which should guarantee correctness, assuming the underlying transformations are correct. They do train the model to perform compilation, but as an auxiliary task.
Just try it out. The programming language of your choice sure offers information and tools.
> immutability is a lie, many parts of the systems are mutable, although I don't know how to describe this family with a different word (transactional something?).

In the case of Nix, it sounds like it's more focused on reproduce-ability? It sounds like I should be able to take the Nix configuration file, plop it on another computer, and get the same system (except, perhaps, for /home).

Some of the others sound more like existing tools that provide snapshot/rollback capability, just with different implementations.
Can you give more background? Why?
Sometimes you don’t want to solve problems in the abstract, you just want to know what a ten year million dollar loan is worth at eight percent interest or something natural language like that. I type it into Google and it usually unrolls it and calculates it pretty well or finds a site for the problem. I hope this calculator has a good natural language vocabulary.
> Wayland works completely fine.

Agreed. What's the missing feature? Screen sharing? Remote sessions? Overlapping displays (doesn't work in Android BTW)? We've had all of these for years.

Even fractional scaling on hiDPI monitors has been good enough for me to not care for at least 5 years.

It's like systemd; the people bitching either want to sound contrarian or actually know enough to roll their own down to the low level. At which point I must say; show me the code. Open a PR or give it a rest
How could this possibly be the deciding factor? I know this is Hacker News but that seems like the smallest possible thing to care about.

> Bug reports or questions generally do not require mentioning your race, ethnicity, nationality or identity preferences.

There are people whose reply to that statement would be "Help! I'm being oppressed!" . The sort of people who say being race-neutral is white supremacy.

There's a lot of bored people who just want to feel like social activists because they've been taught it's noble (no matter how cringe it is to normal people). And there's no lower-effort way of doing this than causing drama in tech communities where no one cares about your race or gender. It's a perfect place to turn into a battleground, and then if they reject you, you run to social media to virtue signal about toxicity.
I guess that's the joke. Nobody cares about phone rotational inertia, the fact that someone would measure it is funny as is.
What these sort of introductions to immutable always fail to consider is the other side of the coin, image-based. I'm working on https://universal-blue.org/ along with many people much more skilled than me. We build OCI container images on top of vanilla Fedora Silverblue & many other editions with different desktops. Those images can then be booted to (or rather rebased to) using rpm-ostree. This is a more robust way of extending the system than layering, and the same changes can be easily benefited or inherited from by anyone. You can even make your own image really easily!

I think that VanillaOS and SUSE are working on similar things, but we're not an OS project, just a downstream from Fedora. Fedora's full support is underway but with what's already working perfectly our methods are already IME some of the most robust and easy ways of delivering Nvidia drivers for example.
On the server-side, there's Bottlerocket OS [1] (Amazon). They use A/B partitions for upgrades, and the idea is that you just run containers for anything non-base. Boot containers are used to do custom configuration at boot, and host-container (or DaemonSet, if you run K8S) is used for long-running services.

Probably Godot. That seems to be the most popular open-source alternative.
Turkey is the biggest provider of bigger UAVs, but not toy sized ones. For that China takes the lead supplying both sides.
It's a combination of two things, open source packages have matured to a very stable level. Fedora uses very recent packages and it just works somehow because they've all become very good. So to keep a stable desktop system there is no more reason to use "sta(b)le" packages.

The other reason is snapshots, because no system is perfect. An operating system should in fact be designed around the fact that something will go wrong. Windows has had this for years, and some linux users have done it with btrfs.

But Fedora Silverblue does it seamlessly with ostree and grub, so if something does go wrong in a newly applied update, you simply choose the last working one in the grub menu and go on with your day until you have time to resolve it.

This for me to use Fedora as my daily driver is crucial.
You're conflating development budgets and marketing budgets.

Redhat could invest 200bn into Fedora or any other project, and still people won't switch to it because even if it's "better" by some arbitrary metric, it's not what people are used to.

It's definitely possible, but it looks like Linux is more likely to gain popularity via WSL than via Fedora or similar.
None of the countries you mention have ages old strong own culture to preserve really (except first nations but for various reasons their culture is not US or Canada culture).

So Japan's policy is not unreasonable. You can become a proper Japanese if you want to (are willing to culturally integrate), it's just that not many people do. Without it you'd be trading off death of country for death of culture. Contrast to China or Thailand where AFAIK you are always second class citizen legally if you are "wrong" ethnicity.
