In my setup I combine one machine with ZFS with another running btrsfs, therefore using rsync/restic. And Apple devices uses APFS. I'd rather use ZFS solely (or in future: bcachefs) but unfortunately Apple went w/their native next-gen CoW filesystem and I don't think ZFS is available for Synology DSM. Though perhaps I should simply replace DSM with something more my liking (Debian-based, Proxmox).
>This is certainly not an argument for abandoning the state's commitments to the California model [of setting aggressive green energy goals], but it suggests paying close attention to the choices that are made in the energy transition to avoid backlash and major economic losses

The problem isn't the energy transition, the problem is that environmental reviews have been weaponized by NIMBYs. Whenever anyone tries to build anything in California, NIMBYs sue them to delay the project for years with environmental review laws. This is far more disruptive than, say, needing to get bureaucratic approvals for environmental impacts, because these lawsuits happen after planning has finished and shovels are already in the ground.

The only infrastructure that can get built in California is, naturally, the kind that spews carbon in the face of the poor. In fact, I have a bit of a conspiracy theory: California isn't nearly as blue as we think it is. A lot of nominally liberal Californians are actually extremely conservative, because they use bullshit lawsuits, local city councils, and other measures of vetocracy to stop progress. They disguise this with wokewashing - bathing their blatant conservatism[0] in the language of social justice so that liberals don't notice it right away.

Green energy would be already attainable for a good chunk of California residents but for the NIMBYism. California actually has to build a lot of their wind farms in Wyoming - yes, the deep-red state whose low taxes are subsidized by the coal industry - purely because the residents can't enact the fallacy of relative privation and sue a wind farm for not being green enough. California wants green energy, sure, but they want it "over there" where they don't have to even know that it exists.

> There may be programs which can beat anyone at chess, but they will not be exclusively chess players. They will be programs of general intelligence, and they will be just as temperamental as people. "Do you want to play chess?" "No, I'm bored with chess. Let's talk about poetry." That may be the kind of dialogue you could have with a program that could beat everyone. That is because real intelligence inevitably depends on a total overview capacity-that is, a programmed ability to 'jump out of the system", so to speak-at least roughly to the extent that we have that ability. Once that is present, you can't contain the program; it's gone beyond that certain critical point, and you just have to face the facts of what you've wrought.

The thing is, any human group, company, academia, etc...are influenced by politics, and those who do it well get the attention and the resources. It doesn't matter if they are technically brilliant or not.

Unless you need that burstable capacity. Company I worked for got a 90 minutes heads up that our client bought a Super Bowl ad. We needed to spin up as many instances as possible.

Great question. Each new table is given a __row_id column which ScratchDB populates and that is the default primary key.

Then, as data is added, I look at the cardinality of each column and set an ORDER BY appropriately. The goal (implementation in progress, not launched yet) is for ScratchDB to do this automatically - we should be able to automatically look at both the data in your table and queries and analytically come up with an appropriate sorting key.

There’s always pressure towards a shared language for commerce/law (and this varies with political winds) but everyday communication is just negotiated among the people you encounter regularly.

Humans are way too clever and adaptable to receive and reify one language and will always be tuning in to accidental quirks and personal optimizations. There will always be many languages, some old and some new, because people will always live within the practical little social bubbles that get them from today to tomorrow.
The cheapest way to prevent an outage is to catch it early in its lifecycle. Software bugs are like real bugs. First is the egg, that's the idea of the change. Then there's the nymph, when it hatches; first POC. By the time it hits production, it's an adult.

Wait - isn't there a stage before adulthood? Yes! Your app should have several stages of maturity before it reaches adulthood. It's far cheaper to find that bug before it becomes fully grown (and starts laying its own eggs!)

If you can't do canaries and rollbacks are problematic, add more testing before the production deploy. Linters, unit tests, end to end tests, profilers, synthetic monitors, read-only copies of production, performance tests, etc. Use as many ways as you can to find the bug early.

Feature flags, backwards compatibility, and other methods are also useful. But nothing beats Shift Left.

This is to some extent true of Open Philanthropy, although the effect looks larger than it is because they're consciously committed to not throwing all of their resources behind whatever they think is the best option. I'm not a fan in principle, but it's not insane. See https://www.openphilanthropy.org/research/worldview-diversif... for their take.

GiveWell remains firmly on the global health side, and I don't see that changing. Here's the first my-screen-worth of organizations they've funded in the last year, with approximate numbers:

- 77 million to Hellen Keller International (Vitamin A supplementation)

- 42 million to New Incentives (infant vaccination)

- 17 million to Sightsavers (parasitic worms)

- 8 million to PATH (malaria)

- 6 million to Nutrition International (Vitamin A)

- 5 million to IRD Global (healthcare infrastructure)

- 5 million to Miracle Feet (clubfoot)

- 7 million to Deworm the World (parasitic worms)

- 2 million to RICE (postnatal care)

Technically no, you'd need to also deploy a NFT smart contract that creates a new token for each file. But theoretically any media type could be represented by an NFT so it's sort of an arbitrary restriction by NFT.storage. Probably not super enforceable on their part. I imagine the promo will end at some point though. Filecoin just happens to have an excess of available storage right now, which is why they can afford to offer it for free.
Once it became easier to measure longitude and latitude in land surveying it became way easier to define state borders as straight lines instead of following a river's course or other arbitrary lines. Even in the depths of the madness of the NE you have lines that are "straight from this point until you reach another state line or the border".
My living situation and life circumstances are broadly similar to yours, and I'm also in California but not anywhere near downtown Metro. Instead I'm about an equal distance from the center of La and the center of San Diego, and the beach cities of orange county- each roughly an hour drive in their various directions (modulo traffic). Daycare here, at a fairly premium facility connected to the UC system, is 1700 a month for a toddler and would probably be about $2,200 for an infant (full day/5 days a week).

Rent is probably not a consideration in a move someone like yourself or ourselves might make, but if it had to be, an entire three bedroom house with a swimming pool can be had month-to-month at about $3,500-4500. median home value is somewhere around 750 to 850 depending on what side of what street you live on.

This doesn't really remedy the tax situation but it does look like a completely different universe in contrast to what you're going to deal with in the middle of San Francisco or LA, or even (to a much lesser extent) San Diego.

The downside is that you had better really, really, really like the company of fake-aggressive midlife crisis bros in humongous lifted pickup trucks, because that's who you're largely going to be surrounded by.

Clustering filesystems are old. RedHat at some point took over the company behind GFS perhaps worth looking into. I've also seen people in edge computing space go for Longhorn instead of Ceph. But I don't know anything about it apart that Ceph is available in Proxmox.

If you can be good at front and back end and keep up with both of them simultaneously, that's great, but:

- you spend more time to keep up with both of those sectors compared to dedicated front or back end positions

- you context switch more often than dedicated positions

- you spent more time getting good at both of those things

- you removed some amount of communication overhead if there were two positions

You are definitely not being compensated for that extra work and benefit to the business given that full stack salaries are close to front end and back end position salaries.
Interesting take. I’ve de-giogled my life so I didn’t think about chrome. Fair enough
The Clinton scandal at the time of the bombing of Serbia was about a consensual relationship (his two-year extramarital affair with Monica Lewinsky). While Clinton did have other sex scandals, those came well before 1999. Your writing about a “little raping scandal” suggests you do not have a good knowledge of this history and your posts on the subject cannot be taken seriously.
> I'm sure the Ryan in front of the camera is different than the Ryan I'd meet at the bar

I draw the opposite conclusion: I think talking to him at the bar about tanks and war would sound virtually the same as him on youtube. I would only expect him to check his facts and make a mental model of what he intends to say on cam instead of free-handing it (I think this is what Ward Carroll does because he has a different style).

Regarding "what is authenticity", what it makes me think of is everyone whining and moaning on Twitter about having to pay a few bucks for membership. If you were authentic enough to truly believe in what you say, then paying $8/mo is a great investment to get your message out and have a more official platform. However, if you want to enter a proverbial playground and play king of the hill (the game) and shove people around with your views and snide remarks and tribalism, then of course you're not going to pay to use the playground! It's for fun and recreation pretending to follow trends and ideologies.
If you build a spite fence next to my property in order to enrage me, we will have largely the same problem that your grandfather and my grandfather would have had: you will chortle with glee and I will grind my teeth.

It seems like the suggestion in this thread is that if I don’t like it, I should have moved or prevented you from building. This seems like a somewhat Neolithic solution to me, and I’m glad we have solved these problems.
OpenBSD developers are making a serious effort to kill off indirect syscalls, the base system is completely clean, take a look at the work Andrew Fresh did to adapt Perl. He wrote a complete syscall "dispatcher" or emulator for the Perl syscall function so that it calls the libc stubs.

TEL is incredibly bad stuff*, but it's rarely used in commercial flight operations as they predominantly use jet aircraft. Leaded avgas is completely unnecessary as non-TEL fuel formulations have been created and certified. The problem is they're not available anywhere, while leaded avgas is everywhere in GA. Municipalities should do like they did for leaded automotive gasoline: supersede commercial interests with public health regulatory ones and ban it. (The EPA only banned leaded automotive gasoline nationwide in 1996 after allowing 25 years for the phaseout.)

But you may be depriving someone of something.

E.g., if I had pirated Photoshop I would not have been depriving Adobe of anything, because there was no way I would pay the several hundred dollars they were charging for it at the time.

But Adobe is not the only company selling image editing software. Rather than pirate Photoshop I bought the much less expensive Pixelmator. They would not have gotten that sale if I had chosen to pirate Photoshop.

Tires don't control access to knowledge on an ongoing basis. I also own the tires in perpetuity. Arguably in the grand scheme of things tires are just not that important compared to something like a search engine. Tires are a commodity. Search isn't and so they need to be treated differently.

I don't think I'd entertain putting them at the same level and so the analogy falls apart.

>But the interesting thing is that there's still nothing that makes it fundamentally impossible to start a relatively small forum nowadays.

I would disagree. There are a few things that make it exceedingly difficult (though not impossible)

1. Other platforms breathing up all the air in the room. No one's going to be giving your attention if they are being rage baited on twatter all day.

2. DDOS, and attack tools make it easy to blast your site totally off the internet the first time a troll gets pissed at you for one reason or another. You'll end up having to be behind CloudFlare or paying for some service to even exist.

3. If your site does gain the smallest amount of popularity the spammers and the bots will come, and you will spend a lot of time and effort to get rid of it. Eventually you are a worn out husk of a human being as you spend more and more time, money, and effort figuring out what is and isn't authentic on your forum.
