> It's rock-solid.

Unfortunately, I cannot confirm. Sharing my experience:

I used tinc over multiple years on production servers and it would sometimes create netsplits that did not recover.
I also suspect that there's a race or bug in re-keying, which also causes disconnects.

On the netsplit issue, it was me posting alone on the relevant issue [1] over multiple years without response. (I don't expect to get any from free-time maintainers, especially on hard-to-reproduce issues, but it's still important to know that such unsolvable hurdles exist.)

When I switched to Nebula, it improved this situation.
But both Nebula and tinc max out at around 1 Gbit/s on my Hetzner servers, thus not using most of my 10 Gbit/s connectivity. This is because they cap out at 100% of 1 CPU. The Nebula issue about that was closed due to "inactivity" [2].

I also observed that when Nebula operates at 100% CPU usage, you get lots of package loss. This causes software that expects reasonable timings on ~0.2ms links to fail (e.g. consensus software like Consul, or Ceph). This in turn led to flakiness / intermittent outages.

I had to resolve to move the big data pushing softwares like Ceph outside of the VPN to get 10 Gbit/s speed for those, and to avoid downtimes due to the packet loss.

Such software like Ceph has its own encryption, but I don't trust it, and that mistrust was recently proven right again [3].

So I'm currently looking to move the Ceph into WireGuard.

Summary: For small-data use, tinc and Nebula are fine, but if you start to push real data, they break.

Two of the best cooks I have ever known have significant visual impairment, though neither is blind. One is blind in one eye and I've heard the other described by someone knowledgeable as one of "the sighted blind."

They both rely heavily on smell to determine doneness, which gets vastly superior results to my reliance on time as an indicator of doneness.
Right. Basically the deployment would have to happen in a secret tree: a directory with a hard to guess name (e.g. 256 bit random hex string) in a root-owned directory that is not readable to anyone but root. Only when the deployment is finalized (all chown and chmod operations have been done) is that tree then renamed to its deployment location.

Whenever root creates an object owned by root, which is then chown-ed to non-root, if an adversary can point a root process at that object, that could subvert safepath.

This probably has more to do with the fact that supermarket tomatoes are picked before they fully ripen on the vine (often green). I also enjoy growing my own (Brandywine is a favorite), and letting it ripen on-vine to the point where it's probably hours away from falling off or starting to rot results in a much better tasting tomato than jumping the gun.
You didn't get my point.

Megadosing B6 can lead to B6 toxicity/syndrome as a result of its longer half life and ability to accumulate in the system. Between multivitamins, energy drinks, preworkouts and food, it's very easy to go well above the recommended amount. I'm currently recovering from B6 induced peripheral neuropathy (tingling in my feet) caused by 20-50mg/day over several years.

> To be fair the Jewish people had been largely spread into the diaspora or killed by that point thanks to the Romans siege of Jerusalem in 70AD and the fallowing supression of rebellion revolts and sieges of other Jewish cities and settlements. Over a million Jews are said by concurrent historians to have been killed many of the remaining enslaved.

That same Wikipedia article says: "Josephus' death toll figures have been rejected as impossible by Seth Schwartz, who estimates that about a million people lived in all of Palestine at the time, about half of them Jews, and that sizable Jewish populations remained in the area after the war was over, even in the hard-hit region of Judea. Schwartz, however, believes that the captive number of 97,000 is more reliable"

The Judaean Jewish community was nowhere near wiped out by the 66–73 CE war, given the fact they were able to launch another sizeable rebellion against Roman rule (the Bar Kokhba revolt) in 132–136 CE.

And even after the Bar Kokhba revolt, significant Jewish communities survived in what is now Israel/Palestine – of particular note is Judah ha-Nasi, the redactor of the Mishnah, who was born during the Bar Kokhba war. The office of Nasi (leader of the Jewish community in Israel/Palestine) continued until the death of Gamaliel VI in c. 425. The Christian Roman Emperor Theodosius II refused to permit the appointment of a successor, which was arguably the decisive step in transferring the seat of leadership of the Jewish community from Galilee to Babylonia.

While it is clear that many Jews were driven into exile, killed or enslaved, it is also likely that a significant number succumbed to the temptation/pressure to convert to Christianity (and later Islam). How many is difficult to say; I wonder how many Palestinian Arabs have Jewish ancestors, it is possibly a quite substantial number.
Valve copies an approach of amazon that many (including, I believe, the USG) consider anticompetitive. Namely, requiring those who list on their store to not list for a lower price on other platforms. This prevents competition on price, an issue because valve charges a 30% fee, which many consumers might like to save on.
Many amateurs compete in Kaggle, most of them use whatever hardware they have to hand, and a lot of them will use CUDA directly or indirectly.

> as ancient Hebrews would sometimes write in Egyptian characters when enscribing was difficult (metal plates!) because the Egyptian script was more concise.

That’s almost complete nonsense. You give me a chisel and I’ll carve Hebrew in Aramaic square script or paleo-Hebrew much faster than hieroglyphs. A angular hieratic might be a draw, but that’d also be needlessly complicated. The small part that’s not nonsense: some early Semitic texts are written in a simplified form of hieroglyphs that would later evolve into the alphabets we use today, including the usual scripts used to write Hebrew. But those writings weren’t any more concise by using simplified hieroglyphs verses another script.

This Mormon Sunday-school myth is born out of a misunderstanding of how Egyptian hieroglyphs work that impeded their decipherment from late antiquity until the early 1800’s. Namely, that hieroglyphs were some deep allegorical language where a single symbol could be emblematic of entire sentences or more. Joseph Smith apparently believed this, as evidenced by his attempts to translate Egyptian funerary texts as “The Book of Abraham.” We have interlinear manuscripts showing him translating entire sentences and paragraphs from single symbols.

This misunderstanding is further reflected in 1 Nephi 1:2, “I make a record in the language of my father, which consists of the learning of the Jews and the language of the Egyptians.” There are ways to read that line that don’t implicate the widespread misunderstanding of how hieroglyphs work, but the misunderstanding is the one that was generally held at the time the Book of Mormon was published and continuing to today.

Ask HN: Sheaves as a CS focused branch of mathematics?
Is Sheaves a unifying theory for grouping CS related math constructs/methods/approaches under a common, distinct discipline?

Akin to what unifiying/categorizing math methods/approaches under the discipline of statics does, but for CS. aka more abstract math based cs applied theory take on applied cs data structures.

concepts of Basic Sheaves Stack (bss) theory as a distinct discipline of CS:

discrete math, weak logic, autonoma, calculus (epsion, lambda, process),

affines/matrixes as related to CS, category theory, topological theory, statistics (monte carlo / neural nets / queing theory)

I think endo/ecto are mechanisms and homeo/poikilo are results. They mostly match up (why spend all that energy generating body heat if you're not going to use it to maintain a constant maximally-biochemically-effective temperature?) but not 100%. An ectothermic-homeothermic animal would have to put more effort into using the environment to maintain a constant body temperature. Google says there are some lizards in that category.

Review my startup idea: Create content for LinkedIn, X via just an article link
Hey,

I run a STEM page on LinkedIn & X. I have to post something STEM-related daily on them for which I search Google News for an article, open it, copy its content, and then ask ChatGPT to write an engaging LinkedIn post or Tweet for me out of it.

I've been thinking of developing a tool that takes just the URL and generates LinkedIn posts, tweets, newsletter editions, instagram posts, etc in a single click.

Do you think people would be willing to pay ~$9/month for such a product?

Thanks for your time!

That's fair. But the root issue is that the US government (who at least should create at enforce the system) is beholden to $ and not constituents. Lobbiest only lobby because they can. If we legislated lobbying to be equivalent to bribery, it'd stop (or at least change form).

My statement 'don't hate the player, hate the game' is just as much about an individual's agency as it is their feelings. We as citizens have more power to change our government than to change Microsoft.

Hating something you can't change is a waste of energy. There's already too much hate in the world. I'd rather understand Microsoft than hate them.

I really like a lot of Tailscale, but I just finished implementing it for my company using headscale (I couldn't get the funding to buy from Tailscale). This is across ~200 machines.

I'll be honest: If I could do it again, I'd use Nebula. The primary issues I have are that Tailscale has a lot of magic which I can see some cases it being nice, but it does make some of the routing and firewalling I'm doing on machines, and in particular the thing where it sets up Tailscale routes to network routes as higher priority than local interfaces leads to problems in my environment.

The other thing is just Headscale itself, it works quite well but does have some rough edges. It's entirely too easy to kill your whole mesh by flubbing an ACL, and currently restarting headscale to pick up ACL changes is taking 3-5 minutes.

I do, however, really prefer the Tailscale ACLs over Nebula's.

One thing that led me to Tailscale was the ability for it to relay around network routing problems, and it looks like Nebula has added that since I started. Around the time I was evaluating Nebula vs. Tailscale we had a ~1 day network routing issue where some of my users were blackhole routed in Comcast, and Tailscale just worked around it.

> who wants to consume art purely generated by AI

Most people won't care one bit. Some artists care strongly, hence the bans on artist-focused sites. When it's about as good or better than humans, people will consume it.

As for why people are still on HN, TBH a lot of these comments could be easily written by ChatGPT. What makes it worth it is seeing comments from people in the know, which is something ChatGPT can't replicate.

For your other comment about pixiv, people don't hate AI art, they hate low-effort trash. Most people, if they saw art they liked, wouldn't care who or what created it.

I'd love to see it. I had a set of similar books I would pore through as a child like 'Future Cities'[1]. I think it might have been part of a series as well. There was also this big thick book from Readers Digest that had all kinds of things you could build Model boats and Planes (among other things). It's not the 'Crafts and Hobbies' one that's on the internet archive, but it was similar.

Please read the thread before commenting. The scenarios we're discussing are explicitly in the context of single storage device systems getting helped by the new healing replication feature. Huge numbers of systems do not have multiple drives nor even necessarily the ability to have multiple drives. Nobody is suggesting it's optimal. I've run ZFS for 12+ years now with hundreds of systems. You don't need to tell us the obvious.
I mean we know this but do you think the average consumer knows this? They’re still locking people in two two year plans by use of the whole “free phone” or “upgrade” offers.

That is just ridiculous. Even as an employee, I believe that the company should be allowed to fire whoever they want whenever they want without justification. The company is paying money, they should be allowed to stop paying that money whenever they want... Otherwise it's not really their money. I've been fired over things that were not my fault and I never complained.

The monetary system which creates anti-competitive tech monopolies which makes it hard for people to start companies and find jobs should be fixed yes but that is a separate issue.
The entire scandal went in one ear and then out the other.
I don’t want to completely throw parents under the proverbial bus here: an awful lot of things depend on smartphones now. My wife has had her high school students break the school’s “no phones” policy because they need to do MFA, watch instructional videos when the school Wi-Fi is down, get stuff out of email, etc. and many kids use apps like Uber to get to/from school or need to use the same phone for some kind of after school job. Yes, you can in theory lock things down but that’s non-trivial to do and it’s not hard to hit exceptions which are not easy to fit into existing parental controls (e.g. just try to limit YouTube to only what videos their teachers use).

I don’t really shed many tears for the commercial porn industry - they at least have some money to spend on compliance – but I do think smartphones will continue to lead kids to make mistakes which can’t be undone. Gross commercial porn can give kids unrealistic ideas but it probably isn’t as damaging as sending something to the wrong person and having it shared around the school, being bullied, etc. and those things don’t have as straightforward a solution as requiring identity checks.
I think for many people, there’s an increasing feeling of dread that comes from using “modern” tools. There’s a heaviness to them that is difficult to put into words. And I think anyone who shares this sentiment feels joy when a tool feels light and airy and totally under their control.
I learned to play guitar on a very crappy guitar. It was from a brand known for being cheap and poor quality, and I've bought it second hand. Still, I learned to play on it. Chords. Scales, arpeggios; you name it. Execution was really bad though, because the instrument was the limiting factor. So, I agree that, in some ways, the instrument was a limiting factor.

One day I got to play on a very good guitar. All the stuff I struggled to play on the cheap guitar came out almost flawless. It felt like before I was racing F1 with a scooter, and then I've finally gotten a proper F1 car.

So, all this is to say that yes, maybe if I had started with a good guitar I wouldn't have struggled as much but, I think the fact I had to put in twice the effort to learn the same things on the crap guitar actually helped me improve (faster? better?). Of course, at one point I had to upgrade the guitar because there were things I couldn't do and it was holding me back but, I think starting with the bad guitar was a good thing (for me personally).

A subtle way to insinuate that working from home is somehow not working. That the only way to work is in an office.
Yes, obviously, most of those chapters are concerned with what we type into the text file or REPL, which is often something that was not ever printed.

There are many examples of #< notation in the book, but, as far as I can see, no remarks are made about what that means, or even that the contents of #<...> are implementation-specific and may appear differently. I don't see any discussions of the concept of print-read consistency, and so on: that objects can sometimes be printed in a way that either cannot be read at all, or worse, that produces a different object, like the #: notation.

It would help the book to talk early about print-read consistency. What it is, when do we have it, when do we not have it, in what situations can we provide it for ourselves when we don't have it, etc.

Compiling Lisp isn't covered in the book; there is only a cursory mention of compile-file. The omission is a lost opportunity to discuss Lisp's "interactive approach" to compilation. In compilation there is the issue of literals: what kinds of objects are externalizable. That relates to printing because externalization is a kind of printing. Compile-file has to print the literal objects into some kind of bits in the file, which then recover a similar object.

The word "image" doesn't appear in the book; it doesn't look as if image saving is mentioned anywhere.
That's OK. The high sea will always be there.

> I consider someone looking at pictures from my local device without my consent to be an attack on my privacy, regardless of the content, or whether they send me to jail afterwards.

To be clear, this is only if you're using a cloud storage service like iCloud Photos, Google Drive etc. It's meant to be a strict improvement over the usual setup, which is that your data isn't hidden from the cloud provider at all and they can just look at whatever. It would certainly be had to have any scanning if you're not opting into a cloud service.
> I've been fired over things that where not my fault and I never complained.

That's stupid, why would you choose to be a punching bag?
So basically you're saying you're a pushover, and other people should also be obligated to just shut up and accept any abuse that comes from their employers? Because...?
