He meant I think that the ticket controllers were often Turkish and Arabic punks. Which bit of that did you not understand?

“All we have to do is ban gunpowder and our castles will protect us”

You cannot be that naive

AI actually is even simpler than these technologies - the math is already out, the GPUs powering every video game.

That train left the station somewhere around Data is all you need.

You are clinging to the illusion that humans can ban technology that is power relevant.
The ESP32 didn't launch until we were already in market.

Still, I would politely suggest that you're underestimating the part where we needed low level access to a camera module that came with the RPi.

Even if the ESP32 had been out, we didn't have anyone handy to spend six months reverse engineering CMOS registers.

Everything is super easy a) in hindsight and b) when you're commenting on Hacker News and not actually doing it.
What is 'american cousine'? Did they ask if people like MC Donald's or how can I imagine that?
That's actually intentional, and one of the reasons why our site exists. Every company has different nomenclature for their leveling that doesn't necessarily align with other companies. So we developed a standard as a normalization for all the leveling which you can view here: https://levels.fyi/standard

As a part of this standard, ICB 6 falls under the 'Staff Engineer' standard level (you'll also notice it maps closer to Google and Facebook's Staff levels as well: https://www.levels.fyi/t/software-engineer?compare=Broadcom%...)
Have you seen Fox News?
I fundamentally have issues with Raspberry Pi brand. It markets itself as a “open source” company but it is anything but. Sure you can get pcb files, but the real stuff is the binary blobs for qualcomm processors. None of that stuff is open source. You can’t get a datasheet for it.

So you’ve got a company that is taking advantage of OSS ecosystem’s reputation but returning nothing back.

Treat it like any other company and I’m fine with it. Happy to buy their computers. Just like I’m fine with OpenAI admitting they’re anything but “Open”. Just be honest ffs.
It's actually only a challenge in shallow water that doesn't move, which if you think about it isn't that surprising. If you pump it out a bit further, you quite literally have a whole ocean to dilute the salt in. Off the coast of California, for example, which is a state that should have no water shortage as it has abundant access to clean solar and wind energy and the entire pacific to desalinate, ocean depths drop quickly even just a few miles out. You would not be able to affect salinity levels of ocean waters there in any measurable way even if you wanted to.

So, the solution is pipes and pumps. Those add cost of course but it's a completely solvable problem otherwise. Exhausting natural sources of ground water and aquifers also has an impact. Desalination done right might give some of those stressed ecosystems a chance to recover.
In the UK we built postwar "new towns" and they are largely brutalist nightmares.
For the Pi5 you could use the m2 hat and an m2. Which seems to come in at a total cost of, guessing, maybe $25 or something.

If that works well (which it should?) that is an absolute nobrainer and game-changer for reability alone.
I think that's what the Compute Module is for. Put it on a breakout board with just the I/O you need, and away you go.

> I'd add network jacks to everything and remove the power plugs if the option was presented.

You could always use PLC to use your eletrical network as a data network. I use that for IP cameras. Unfortunately, I still haven't found a PCL adapter providing PoE power.
All very true. Price-conscious customers are not worth catering to. Non-price-conscious customers, well, don't care about price (to a (large) extent). Price is very rarely an issue.
> Yes RPi foundation, please also spit in my mouth,

Ridiculous take. Seems like a perfectly good balance, prioritising limited stock to supporters of the Raspberry Pi, beyond simply selling to the highest bidder every time.

What's with the patching? It sounds like pretty much spot on for what NTP was designed for.

Each clock is monotonically increasing, with its individual drift. NTP will pretty soon find out exactly what the right polling interval is. Even if you run it in broadcast mode (why would you though, with only 70 devices).

Questioning the consensus is how things evolve and hopefully progress.

CDDL means ZFS can't be incorporated into the Linux kernel as opposed to a distribution. That does have impacts as in when the kernel makes breaking changes in the internal vfs structures used by ZoL. Oracle could change that at the stoke of a pen, but chose not to, for whatever reason.

I don't think fear of Oracle is the issue, more likely just an irrational rejection of everything Sun and Solaris. After all btrfs also originated in Oracle (what's worse, despicable Oracle itself, not via the Sun acquisition).

Perhaps Oracle's unwillingness to relicense is simply that Oracle knows how inferior btrfs and thus doesn't mind giving it away by licensing it GPLv2, but ZFS is much more valuable and they want to keep the rights to it as potential competitive advantage. If Sun hadn't licensed ZFS CDDL before the acquisition, I'm pretty sure Oracle would be happy to keep it closed-source.

I hope bcachefs makes it into the kernel quickly, that distros drop btrfs and that its infiltrators are turfed out of kernel-land, but that's probably too much to hope for. In the meantime, I am happy to keep running ZFS for all my critical data on Illumos, Alpine and Ubuntu.
Open source or not makes no different. It can run in China or Russia, or vietnam or any other nation that doesn’t ban it because it understands the economic power and you pay them on Fiver.

It’s already true for almost anything. You need a deepfake, you can get it for a dollar on a VN web forum. Banning it won’t change a thing. Software piracy is “banned”. Sharing mp3s is “banned”. It makes no difference.

The Fake News and Misinformation on Facebook to influence the US election was legal - AI or not.

To make it illegal you’d need to change the very power consensus of the US, so it won’t happen. People understand that well enough to instead scream at Technology because with that they retain an illusion that it can save them.

The only way to enforce it would be to force everyone to give up general purpose compute and submit to constant client scanning.

If you are afraid enough of AI to not see how that’s a bad idea, you’re ripe for a fascist takeover.

Imagine you lived through the adaptation of gunpowder. That’s where we are. And if you live in the US and see the failure to even ban guns which are physical - how can you have illusions about AI
Maybe that's not what they ate, but what kills them if ingested.

I actually though it was the other way around. Having the PI powers other devices like IP cameras.

My Pi4 (8GB ram) runs:

1. Mox mail server at home (PTR record set up with ISP) - https://github.com/mjl-/mox.

2. Web server (no external hosting hurray); TLS set up via LetsEncrypt.

3. Navidrome for streaming my music collection to my phone/computers. I ripped my thousands of CDs to MP3. I use subtracks on my phone for listening to it, and sonixd on my computers (Mac/PC). https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome

4. mpd for driving some speakers via a USB audio interface so I can use some speakers plugged into the Pi for listening to music in the same room as the Pi (practicing guitar). I control this via the Supersonic app on my phone.

5. Wireguard VPN so I can connect home.

6. PiHole for my network at home. Combined with Wireguard, it means my phone is permanently connected to my home network and gets ad-blocking and stops apps dialing home. I use DroidHole on my phone to see what's going on.

7. xrdp server running, so a usable desktop is always available.

8. miniDLNA running connected to a NAS box so that I can watch all my DVDs easily on my TV downstairs (I spent weeks ripping them).

9. Tuya IoT API for turning some smart plugs in the house on/off via cronjob; I do this instead of using the timer in their app because it means my phone can be off the network/abroad and these plugs/lights still turn on/off.

10. linx-server (https://github.com/andreimarcu/linx-server) for sharing files so that I don't have to use Google Drive and share with people that way.

11. Peer Calls (https://github.com/peer-calls/peer-calls) so I can video conference in decent quality without having to use Google Meet / Teams etc. I also host a STUN and TURN server on the Pi so that Peer Calls works behind NAT.

12. Runs CUPS so that my very cheap Samsung wireless laser printer actually shows up as an AirPrint printer for my wife's iPad/iPhone and shows up in Android printing. (The printer does not natively have AirPrint capability but CUPS means I can provide it to users on the network).

It fetches time over NTP on a cron job. It also blocks various ASNs and IPs by country on a cron job to stop annoying remote pests and cloud providers. It also runs Monitorix so I can see system load, and goaccess on a cron job so that I can see who's hitting my website without having to resort to analytics nonsense.

It boots from USB3 (it has a NVMe in an IcyBox caddy).

Incredibly useful device.

The pyramid I described flows upward. Every close friend we have began as an acquaintance, and with time and repeated interactions they became progressively bigger influences, stronger supports, deeper connections.

Many adults stop forming friendships, because they (or their culture) insert mechanisms that maintain distance between acquaintances. I don't do that – my whole strategy is to not do that.

What is the threshold at which point someone becomes a friend? There's no clear line – it's defined by amorphous things like trust, vulnerability, shared enthusiasm. The way we conduct ourselves can make us more or less capable of experiencing trust/vulnerability/shared-enthusiasm/etc. While the person I run into for the third time is not yet a friend, I conduct myself knowing that we can probably get along quite well, if we're both present and open.

You might underestimate the power of curiosity and an open mind. Remember when you were 5 or 10 years old, how suddenly you connected with your best friends? It happened in a matter of days, or in some cases hours. It's not just a phase of life thing (although it is relevant), open-mindedness and curiosity have the same effect in adulthood.

(Finally, I guarantee a large portion of the people I interact with each day would help me move, if I were to ask. Many of them are literally catching me while I fall rock climbing, and vice-versa!)
The difference is whether you are appealing to the listener's logical faculties. Reasoning with someone feels somehow more respectful and authentic than pulling linguistic tricks to bypass their psychological barriers.

Yes this seems racist, but the ticket controllers with an aggressive, violent bully attitude in berlin are a real thing. These are mostly kids of Turkish and Arabic immigrant workers. Nobody in their right mind is arguing that this is a genetic predisposition. The discrimination and lack of opportunities in our country play a major part that these kids wanna be gangsters. But we also cannot ignore the fucked up patriarchal culture they grew up in. On that note you also have to realize that the people migrating from these countries back in the day were mostly workers, not intellectuals. Then of course there is also the idiotic local traffic authority, that put these delinquents in a position of power. In the end I think this is mostly a homemade problem, but we also shouldn't bullshit ourselves out of fear of seeming racist.
> “Consider a future device ... in which an individual stores all his books, records, and communications, and which is mechanized so that it may be consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility. It is an enlarged intimate supplement to his memory.”

Incredibly prescient until the last sentence. In aggregate, we have foregone the supplementary nature of technology to humans, as it is now humans that supplement technology.

It's been eight years, but if memory serves, the primary need was to force it to broadcast as frequently as possible.

Everything you said is totally legit unless you're addressing devices with software clocks that are running at speeds dictated by subtly shifting voltage.

Remember, according to the Pi itself, it's 100% in sync. No problem hereeeeeeee (robot voice as voltage dips to 4.9887 volts).

Things are even worse for other nannies. I know many who have been convicted to 8, 12 or even 15 years of jail, after 30 ou 40 years of perfect careers with no problem whatsoever. Some have appealed and were eventually acquitted, others are languishing in prison.

We still have a lot of work to do to raise awareness among nannies about the legal risks of caring very young infants. It can happen to anyone: about 1/3000 babies are affected, and the risk is much higher with babies combining multiple risk factors (male sex, prematurity, low birth weight, high head circumference, respiratory problems, frequent infections, etc.).
Looks interesting.

Have you thought about implementing marks, so that you can select some files for further operations?
RaspberryPis are a physical good, those have production limitations. They are also quite cheap, sell well, and have kept prices.

It’s quite different from a lootbox that has no production restriction (replication is instant and almost free)

I don’t believe that the low supply of RPIs is an attempt to extract huge profits, logistics are not easy. This magazine move seems more of an honest way to prioritizing people that have been showing interest. They are not demanding new subscriptions, they are prioritizing who has on.

An entusiastic hobbyists, that has been accompanying the project and supporting via these, would be happy that we got his pi before some random guy clicking buy on impulse

Hmm. I'm disappointed honestly, I was looking forward to USB-C with display port and "normal" USB-C power.

Is there any reasonable option with software support that comes even close to what RPI offers? I don't want an SBC where I have to use some strange back ported, super old, kernel with little to no chance of getting updates.

Maybe I should just go for an X86 board? Lattepanda Delta, or Khadas Mind whenever that's released. Not even that more expensive.
I liked that the Pi lacked features that were taken for granted. Made you think about things in a different way. Now it's just the same as everything else and much less about learning and education.
You are observing the Peter principle in action: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_principle
Programming is also applied physics. But understanding the kinetic forces behind typing is no guide to improved programming.

To say that learning a field is useful is to say that knowing these abstractions is useful.

Much of Haskell's "category theory" is a reuse of terms. Replace Monoid by Appendable, Monad by Composable, Functor by Runnable, etc. and most programming languages are "category theory".

This says little about whether knowing the field of category theory will be useful to programming. Indeed, I think there's a good argument to say Haskell programming is much harmed by it.

If its authors hadnt used their knowledge of category theory, but rather named the abstractions in more ordinary terms, the language would be more useful to more people.
