I don’t disagree with your technical assessment per se but I would would not label any of this “pretty simple”, except for special purpose apps with technically competent users.

Academically it’s in a decent state, but tech- and UX wise I’d say it’s immature. It virtually penetrates all layers of a normal stack (including layer 8). For apps it’s at least possible but the web is very tricky as a platform for anything e2ee without absurd usage requirements.

The tech choices that remain after deciding on an e2ee model are severely limited and language dependent, and spans deeply across persistence layers, software updates, authn, authz, social graphs, moderation etc etc. And even so, there are many subtleties in terms of privacy and information leakage that are often necessary compromises for features that many apps take for granted today. Without any social aspects it’s significantly easier (eg PAKE is best suited for for interactive/online two-party operations).
Get the big iPad Pro. I got the iPad Air (10.86") for reading sheet music (piano and singing) and I love it, but after using it for a while I wish I had purchased the 12.9" Pro. Some people in my conservatory have it and it works great for them.

I'll probably end up upgrading soon just so reading sheet music is more comfortable. And it is much cheaper than $2000 (It reaches almost $2k with the 1TB + Apple Pencil, but starts at like $1.1k). No dual displays though.

I'm not sure if it qualifies as lightweight, but if you are referring to actual weight, it seems to weigh around half as the Yoga Book 9i and a bit more than double the Gvido sheet music reader...

The Air weighs 1 lb and it feels fine when holding it up during a performance, the 13" Pro weighs 1.5 lb.
I dont buy the anti theft angle either. People's phones still end up stolen, and they are still contacted by the thieves to remove the icloud account. ICloud is a good enough feature to prevent theft, and having authorized repair options in it is great. So, that notion is already pretty bad. If someone replaces the motherboard with a blank iPhone(no iCloud attached), then a check of parts that are serialized to an iCloud account should be implemented to prevent harvesting parts from a locked iPhone. There are better consumer friendly methods that Apple simply ignores.
No. They are special.

I'm being facetious. Take note all ye.
It's honestly just sad how complicated the engineering is to make a modern CRUD app that works on the various platforms users expect and behaves normally. It doesn't seem tenable long-term to have to build your app three or four times, or use weird glue projects like this. This seems like a decent solution, to be sure, but still.
Why is endless growth desirable? Why not quality over quantity, allowing for higher quality food supply instead of mass production of with unhealthy trade-offs?
The bridge had been collapsed for 9 years.

During that time, the authorities put up "Road Closed" barricades.

If a man drove off a collapsed bridge, he somehow got around those barricades, or they were removed.
THAT is where the lawsuit needs to start.

I miss the days when lawyers were sentient beings.
Yes, you can definitely lose a lawsuit for plagiarism if you write material too close to the original inspiration, e.g same universe and characters.
>and they're also "buy a new phone, n00b"

That's uncharitable wording. They're more like "Our main goal is providing a secure OS for your device. We can't promise that, if your device no longer receives firmware updates." GrapheneOS is quite principled in not compromising the device security, and I think it should be respected (maybe it's not the OS for you, but it's OK, because there are alternatives).
Ah ok, that makes sense. Thank you for the explanation.
It's land efficient. And only land efficient.

If we get a lot of cheap energy it might make sense if it would allow to basically free up the land for farming.

But as long as land is not "expensive", it's just too expensive in comparison.

Sun is free and land is cheap, tons of plastic, bulbs and infrastructure is not.

Truthfully, as someone who has done a lot small scale growing between over the last few years, using everything from soil to hydroponics, I find it hard to believe that natural techniques will ever come close to mechanization and artificial means. Pesticides and chemical fertilization are so extremely effective. You get hand over fist yield with them.

A world with shared food forests and locally grown food is probably a world with far fewer people.

I think high population and natural farming are mutually exclusive.
I think so too. Motorcycles are the closest thing we have to a very fast horse and according to [1] they are 35 times more likely to result in a fatal crash than a car.

Based on this site, I'm glad I started playing at Beta. My collection is worth like $50,000 according to this. About 1/2 of that value is my collection of multiple complete sets of mint multilands.

Now to just find where I put them all those years ago...
It's got some real potential, here's hoping they actually finish it as I've been burnt on Early Access before.
Transportation always got cheaper once the private sector got involved. Even space transportation(i.e spaceX).

Transporting several millions of people yearly and cheaply(these people don't pay for extra leg room) is not really rocket science.

Right now it's so expensive because the government is as always disconnected from reality. They are deporting each individual on case by case basis using. air flights. The gov is even allocating one or two officers for each immigrant. Now consider boarding all the illegal immigrants on a big livestock carrier. It may take a while to reach its destination(s) but it will be cheap and surely the immigrants(at least most of them) would not try again the adventure. One big immigration camp in a single trip.
My point is that labor saving efficiency may take a hit producing healthy food.

For example, if instead of fighting insects directly, everything is soaked in glyphosate, it might be too much of a compromise.

In fact there are lots of these compromises that end up killing fiber, or favoring starches or processing away nutrients that makes eating a faustian bargain.

I would think labor-saving solutions should try to get whole foods to the table quickly and cheaply, rather than say maximizing shelf life or storage convenience.

Yes that is the example for small molecules. One can generalize to other graphs as well.
That's not really what I meant by cultural assimilation.

Acceptance, Opportunity, Racism, Xenophobia.

East Asia is much more backwards than the West in this regard and the west isn't exactly heaven. In South Korea and Japan, all foreigners get the short end of the stick but black/brown people and Africans get the shorter end.

All the open policies in the world won't reverse public sentiment so easily.

Immigrant are human. And knowing you won't have to watch people scuttle away when you enter a bus means everything when you have options.

You can believe Japan would be full all you want but I assure you it won't be because of Africans.
I got to intern with the IAEA way back when. Nuclear power and nuclear weapons are honestly the least interesting parts of their work.

Life Lessons from an Ad Man
He appears crank, but he is a seasoned journalist who started running his own blog fulltime, so parts of the appearance might be rooted in that. I can only speculate that we have to account for age, funding and personality.

However what is less speculation is that he (and other critics of the German government) are receiving the full „Zersetzung“ Stasi-tactic treatment: Unwarranted unfounded police stops, especially at airports with well meaning officers even admitting there‘s some sort entry in the database, multiple banks cancelling his accounts, as well as all kinds of internet service providers kindly asking him to set up some shell entity to relief them from government pressure. All of this not only limited to him bit to family members as well (his 8-year old‘s daughter bank account „had to be“ suspended according to the bank)

If you are looking for resources on how to implement Apache Kafka in production, you may be interested in the Mastering Path to Production for Data Streaming Systems with Apache Kafka course, recently published on Confluent Developer:

https://cnfl.io/data-streaming-systems

This course is designed to cover everything you need to know about transitioning your real-time stream processing system from proof-of-concept to production. Covering topics, including how to:

- Gather data requirements to build data streaming apps that meet your needs

- Design the streaming platform with the right capabilities

- Plan for business continuity

- Automate all changes in production

- Operate your platform

- Productionize your streaming applications

I’ve also created two super interesting hands-on exercises, so try them out:

- Exercise 1: Build a staging and production data streaming platform with Terraform and a PR-based promotion mechanism.

- Exercise 2: Create a GitOps system to automate the deployment of Kafka streaming applications in Kubernetes with CNCF Flux

Last but not least, there’s also a cheat sheet PDF to check your readiness!

Check out the resources if you are interested and I look forward to hearing your feedback.
Happy coding!

I mean why not just use ForScore on an IPad? It's the best solution available by far. I get this is probably a desktop app, so the comparison is not relevant.
Or general aviation since they use engines derived from ancient automotive designs. Fuel injection isn't common.
there is maybe one more aspect here: i see "overpowering" as a metaphor not meant to be taken literally. i mean how would that even work? i see only one way to get rid of a competitive mindset: to teach children to be cooperative. the "overpowering" aspect would simply be that more people do that than people who teach their children to be competitive, and that women convince their husbands that teaching children to be competitive is not a good idea. unless we then start scoring who got more kids and husbands to stop being competitive, how is this "overpowering" competitive in itself? it's just strength in numbers.
Blockchains can be public or private (i.e. restricted access). In this case, the latter would be appropriate. There are also ways of signing records to establish that a known company produced them.

The idea behind using blockchain for tracking provenance is that you can check if a widget with unique serial number number X has been produced, who currently possesses it, and whether it has already been used. It would also be possible for each manufacturer to maintain their own record, so blockchain is not the only solution, but it is a fairly good fit to this particular problem. As with manufacturers maintaining ownership records, it cannot absolutely prevent a counterfeit part being used, but since the part would have to come from the company who was the last holder of record for a specific genuine part, and the record for that genuine part would be marked as "consumed", normally there would be no financial motive to supply a counterfeit. (Supply to Russia might be a an exception).

> A lot of these jobs make people miserable anyway

A lot of these jobs also make people happy, though. That is why the loss of manufacturing in particular was such a blow to Americans. People love manufacturing – to the point that having small-scale manufacturing facilities in one's garage so that one can keep on manufacturing things on the weekend is a dream of many.

The car has remote connectivity that I can use to set climate control to selected temperature and see detailed energy consumption stats but inside the car it's very analogue, there is a basic screen for the radio(operated with buttons, not a touchscreen) but that's literally it, even the driver cluster still uses analogue gauges.

> In capitalism we make food so cheap that even poor people can get fat.

That's entirely my point. You can get fat, then get prices out of the insulin you need to treat the diabetes you got from getting fat on a high-energy low-nutrition diet.

It turns out that being in poverty is always harmful, so why don't we just eliminate poverty? Because the USSR "tried" and failed 60 years ago? That's not a good enough reason. Like you said, it wasn't even an honest try to begin with.

I never heard of anyone using iMessage daily here in France, the platform is basically dead, maybe facetime managed to survive but that's about it. Everybody is using either Messenger or Whatsapp.

The fact that iMessage being marketed as an SMS app and SMS being dead certainly doesn't help.
Gotta love how people trot out this crap on Hacker News, a place they ostensibly self-selected into.
Sure but I don't think current subsidy structure is all that great.

It makes food cheap to everything. Not every person, everything. Including corporations making "bad" foods

It also subsidizes per area of crop, or volume of that crop which means any "sustainable" practices get by percentage less of them per kg.

I think it would be far better if the subsidies were just directly to the people - drop food tax completely (maybe aside "truly unhealthy food") and subsidize the poorest so still everyone can eat, instead of subsidizing essentially John Deeres and fertilizer manufacturers

That’s okay, because there is no way anyone could mistake Twitter or any noncorporeal, private, online, TOS-limited, private property, coherent speech product, that was not taking on any role traditionally the province of the government for a public square.

This is a bogus claim. It might have been 5 times slower on some pathological cases, it absolutely wasn't 5 times slower overall.
Sorry, I mean, long before the iron age.
Observability costs feel high when everything’s working fine. When something snaps and everything is down and you need to know why in a hurry… those observability premiums you’ve been paying all along can pay off fast.
You can be divorced with no financial support then which is really the crux of the issue.

I've been looking for a decent replacement for milk for a long time, I've tried them all. Oat Milk is what I've finally settled on. Specifically the brand Oatly (which I believe is broadly available) for me has solved the overly oaty taste with their Barista Edition milk. I will say that it is still notably worse than cows milk, but to a degree I can personally live with. But I'd recommend maybe ordering an oat milk latte one day when you're feeling particularly adventurous and just seeing if the downgrade in taste is tenable for you.

Cheese is a whole other kettle of fish, they're all awful.
But that's what I mean: lots of ISPs have supported IPv6 for 1-2 decades. Most hardware & software already supported it a decade ago, and nobody should be using anything that old without updates. The only reason for an ISP today to not provide it is incompetence.

Two decades ago I was a member of a ISP consumer group, and we discussed it with a couple ISPs back then. They all were working on a planning for it (one smaller ISP even already implemented it back then!). Apparently in other countries ISPs were allowed to behave irresponsibly.

Really, the only way to force such incompetent ISPs out is if governments get involved, or if all/most backbone providers and IX operators set a date where IPv4 will become very expensive, and then one where it will be switched off...

> there isn't anything magical about their authorization approach either

I 100% agree with this, and that's intentional. We don't want to do anything special here, we want our solutions to be as interoperable as possible with existing approaches
I acquired a generator from a family member, and unknown to me when I needed it to power the house the thing wouldn't run unless the choke was held closed with a wire tie. You can imagine how well that ran...

So, that sounds like a carb rebuild, right? Come to find out that for about $17 shipped a seller on eBay with something like 200K feedback will sell me a brand new carb. Fitted that, it starts on first pull. There's absolutely no reason to mess around with a rebuild on something like that.
That river has been running there for 0.5 million years? That's incredibly stable!
