The bottleneck is growing the wood, not cutting it. Modern forestry equipment is insanely fast.

Most agricultural crops have a very short seasonal window in which they can be harvested, but corn is not expensive because we only get one harvest per year, lumber is an anomaly in that respect.
I prefer to use patina to refer to acceptable or even desirable wear, and in that sense, LVP doesn't patina at all, but rather gouges, as you say.

> Europe won't allow you to become an immigrant there, because they're hyper xenophobic and or extremely racist. [...] They usually call it protecting their culture, it's really just plain old xenophobia and racism.

> Just ask Sweden how their next 30 or so years are starting to look. France has entirely failed for decades at integrating their immigration populations, despite their vaunted welfare state.

You seem to be contradicting yourself. The way you put it, European countries are simultaneously closed to immigration and irrationally racist for being this way, and at the same time they're on doomed trajectories due to immigration. If the latter is true, that would be a non-racist justification for anti-immigration policies, but if they were as anti-immigration as you claim those faltering social conditions due to immigration wouldn't exist in the first place.

Compare immigration to France and Japan. It's clear which of these countries is actually hostile to immigrants.
If you're referring to column mounted prndl stalks, they don't turn with the wheel. Examples: Mercedes, older Model S, and lots of pickup trucks.

If you're referring to paddle shifters, ironically Ferrari (of wheel-mounted indicator buttons fame) mounts them on the column instead (again, not turning with the wheel). IMHO both are fine for street and track usage because manual shifting is most likely triggered when the car is (almost) straight. However this assumption does not apply to turning indicator controls, which by definition are used when you are, uh, turning or about to turn!
I, personally, consider the "Glory to our martyrs" banners to be pretty squarely pro-Hamas. Love the whataboutism though.
"Same" would be a low-effort comment; I think this was the path a lot of us have taken.

Today's Reddit is a mire of ephemeral pop commentary, censorship, and automated flagging. It's like the leadership cares about engagement, not discussion, and they're willing to let people talk into the ether to drive the numbers up. The audience quality bar has substantially dropped in all but the most niche topical subreddits as well.

Twitter and the spinoffs are all too high drama for me to engage in regularly. Everyone is playing morality sports or trying to game for traction.

I miss being able to hold a no-stakes, high quality discussion amongst peers. I feel like we need anonymous P2P social networking. I don't like other parties being the arbiters of information flows, and I also don't like bad agents seeking to tear down those that go against their personal brand of ideology.

If you have a bug in how a lambda function is run on AWS, do you find yourself looking for the bug in firecracker? It is open source, so you technically could, but I just don't see many customers doing that. Same can be said about KNative on GCP.

Their choice in foundation OS (for lack of a better term) really should not matter to any customer.
> Life actually seemed way better for millions of working class folks during COVID, when the economy was tanking and government simply propped it up, and suddenly workers everywhere had a lot more respect and negotiation power, and unions grew for the first time in decades. It was the first time in my life I saw our society come together to work together, instead of trying to massively exploit the poor.

This is delusional. Aside from government enforced job loss, firings of people with differing views, and forcing low status occupations to continue working crazy hours and burn out, I guess labor won? Maybe? Needing unions to fight for higher wages caused by stupid economic policy is hardly a win

I think it would be sense that the browser should never send cookies if the certificate changed unless the user specifies that the new certificate is valid for the existing cookies (or manually copies them if necessary, e.g. due to a different domain name or a different computer). This way, it willl be secure. HSTS is no good, but cookies being secure-only can help (although I dislike that cookie flag and think instead, it should be if the connection that sent the cookies to you is secure instead).

I also think that, to save energy (and to work-around compatibility issues), you should be allowed to configure it to use insecure proxies for secure connections (usually these insecure proxies would run on your computer, or LAN, but this is not strictly required).
I wonder if it lets us simulate the baggage handlers; X-ray the bags.. find the wall-mounted sexessories.. open the bag / misplace luggage, etc.

Crazy feature request: It would be awesome if MS Flight Simulator let players fly to player controlled airports - maybe players can reclaim an abandoned airport. Or even go to airports where players must communicate with each other to coordinate landing / take-off.
While the game should not have been released in this state (or at least with defaults set to broken graphics settings, such as motion blur and depth of field), CO released a patch today and users are saying that it has dramatically increased performance.

This is just a hunch, but maybe as as way to keep "weird" stuff as something outside the mind of the less savy

If there is a dedicated easy to press "change something" button it WILL get pressed, "really long press(es)" are hidden enough that they might not be (Even if clearly labeled, people still think "techwiz" even if all you do is read the print and see that the button had another function)
Hm. Yeah I agree. I guess everyone really has given up and begrudgingly accepts it.
Define "desensitized". I watched plenty of movies that are violent, the only ones that get me are the ones about torture (makes me angry). However if I see some blood or my wife cuts with a knife, I have to lay down a few minutes to avoid fainting.

To me, clearly there is a huge difference between tv and in person. I've never even seen a dead person (except in movies).
I just made basically the same comment, I'm pessimistic, but open minded. Hoping someone can drop some insight on this thread
Anyone using Next.js in production? Can you speak to the resources needed or optimizations to reduce said resources? I'm worried with how much lifting the server does that, it could rack up a pretty hefty AWS bill if I'm not careful.

That's the list price. You don't pay the list price if you purchase at high volume. Bare metal and VPS providers are surely very high volume customers.

This is perhaps an argument against pure DIY colo, but most small scale colo isn't connected "naked" to the Internet but gets racked in a data center that offers a bandwidth package and does peering for you. The only people who peer directly tend to be clouds, bare metal hosts, CDNs, and ISPs. Even if you have your own IP space and an ASN you are usually behind someone who is bulk purchasing transit and handling peering.

To be fair very large customers can negotiate costs down at cloud providers too, but you have to be spending tens of thousands a month to even have a chance at getting their attention for any kind of special deal.
> physical buttons would be pretty cumbersome and would always feel like a poor hack.

Except for typing text, of course, for which touch screens are worse. I no longer write email on my phone, because typing anything longer than a couple of sentences on glass is too frustrating. In that way touchscreen phones have regressed from the experience I used to have with a BlackBerry.

Personally, I love front end work. I love the crazy challenges and weird constraints. I love seeing a UI — something that a human interacts with — at the end of the process. Server side work can be interesting for a little while, but if I don’t see the results in the UI, it feels hollow.

Strangely, even though I’ve been doing this for twenty five years and I’ve never been better at it, in today’s bullshit interviewing environment, I can’t get a job because I can’t solve algorithms or do system designs in forty five minutes. And so I’m sitting on the sidelines right now. It’s the most bizarre experience of my career.
The EU standardizes a lot of laws that a lot of countries should have had already. I'm sure there must be bad examples but I've really only seen improvements in action. Countries have to part with their idiotic version or give up on their idiotic proposals. NL for example had some issues wanting forced labor for unemployed people with social support but that would be called a job and require minimum wage.

> It's not like Nvidia completely rebuilt the GPU between revisions

NVidia absolutely changes the assembly language rather dramatically between iterations. That's why the code is in NVidia PTX (or HLSL / Microsoft's DXIL, DirectX Intermediate Language), and then recompiled to actual GPU assembly each time you install a game or run the code on a different system.
Looks like it only checks for authorization: redaction in the headers which is great, but continues to leak the authorization header in batched http calls for Google APIs

Dumb question: How is Oxide different than AWS Outposts or Azure Stack HCI?

https://azure.microsoft.com/mediahandler/files/resourcefiles...
I could have worded it better. Basically, we've been inundated with a bunch of pre-release players saying the game was basically unplayable on any GPU.

Post-launch, it's perfectly playable for a lot of people. Even on older cards. Performance is by no means good, but it's not a slideshow like everyone was worried it would be pre-release.

(fwiw I also tested this on a 2070. It wasn't great at 1440p but was performing just as well as my 4090 on 1080p)
Read the article I linked. This is happening in other non-border cities as well.
Imagine a Beowolf cluster of those!
I did an enormous amount of research when replacing my deck this summer and BL was top of my list. My experience trying to source it here in Eastern PA was, to put it mildly, off-putting, as everyone I spoke to wanted to, unprompted, spend the first 30 minutes of the conversation telling me how shady their competitors were, especially when it came to claims of domestic sourcing.

I ended up doing a kind of 180 and installing Accoya wood, which, geographically and species-wise is about the furthest thing from BL available, but felt to me like a good investment in longevity and thus embodied carbon, even when accounting for the long boat trip(s) to my place.

Yes, I was addressing the broader discourse more generally, specifically Reddit. But you're right that the article did directly address this though I would say the tone and title of the article are incongruous with the simple fact that they were able to get the game to run well with minor tweaks.

I take issue with "only got 50fps". This is not Counter Strike or a game that demands 300fps. 50fps (if your 1% lows are within reason) is completely playable.
50fps is okay. 50fps on a $1600 GPU is definitely not okay.
Depends, in Portugal outside IT that usually means one isn't good enough keeping their job in first place, or is only working across low paying jobs.

I was sad to see i2p's maintainer zzz quit the project after he got some pushback about politics I think. Reminded me to be thankful for all the unpaid hard work open source maintainers put in.
Yeah, I guess in the reality the perfect hardware is "an Nvidia GPU with sufficient VRAM" because its everywhere and already works by default.
Its a huge deal. I'm biased though because my own takes on how things should evolve were very similar. I was however completely unsuccessful in getting those ideas into production! And that, that is a huge deal. Through out my career it has been interesting to meet people with great ideas and then they are unable to get them into production, and when the idea does come into production everyone feels like "Wow, this is so obvious why didn't we do it sooner?" and some folks are banging their head against the wall :-).

One of the more interesting discussions I had during my tenure at Google was about the "size" of the unit of clusters. If you toured Google you got the whole "millions of cheap replaceable computers" mantra. Sitting in Building 42 was a "rack" which had cheap PC motherboards on "pizza dishes" without all that superfluous sheet metal. Bunches of these in a rack and a festoon of network cables. What are the "first class" elements of these machines? Compute? Networking? Storage? Did you replace components? Or a whole "pizza slice" (which Google called an 'index' at the time). Really a great systems analysis problem.

FWIW I'm more of a "chunk" guy (which is the direction 0xide went) and less of a "cluster" guy (which is the way Google organized their infrastructure). A lot of people associated with 0xide are folks I worked with at Sun in the early days and during that period the first hints of "beowulf" clusters vs "super computers", was memory one thing (UMA) or did it vary from place to place (NUMA). I have a paper I wrote from that time about "compute viscosity" where the effective compute rate (which at the time largely focused on transactional databases) scaled up with resource (more memory more transactions/sec for example) and scaled down with viscosity (higher latencies to get to state meant fewer transactions/sec) Sun was invested heavily in the TPC-C benchmarks at the time but they were just one load pattern one could optimize for.

These guys have capitalized on all that history and it is fucking amazing! I just hope they don't get killed by acquisition[1].

[1] KbA is a technique where people who are invested in the status quo and have resources available use those resources to force the investors in a disruptive technology to sell to them and then they quietly bury the disruptive technology.
Agreed. It's hard to believe that marketing pages, after decades of evolution and testing, haven't landed on what users actually want, rather than what they say they want.

Scrolling is such a natural behavior for internet natives. Being able to leverage a large screen to visually compare things has its place, but the article uses a horrible example:

> Our condensed product page prototype took the same information from the original dispersed page and arranged it in a 2x2 grid that allowed users to compare multiple services simultaneously, without having to remember the details of each service.

What's to compare? They're disparate services.

I do like the example of the product specifications. But that was more of an objective usability issue: requiring more clicks for more information.

look no further than healthcare for all by every study[0], showing it would SAVE money. Hey idiots, turns out hiring a bunch of people to decide who is allowed to get a checkup costs more than the checkup.

I mean very different robots from the rovers we've sent to date. Maybe not even more complex robots but definitely bigger (and smaller too) robots.

Their task not to survey with minimal disruption, but to actively disrupt. To build, to transform materials (lab), to create the base buildings and infrastructure of civilization. So there's somewhere with resources to better support humans.
Totally agree. I was not pitching for large audience, the dryness creates a specific exclusivity in itself. HN subculture is focused on conrete subjects with world class subject experts occasionally pitching in.
I hated these options as well and thus did a bunch of research into thermally-modified and acetylated timber. I'd recommend investigating those options if you don't want plastic or PT.
MFA for my Synology failed recently because (I suspect) I let the drive go unused for a while and it lost sync with the time server. So all one time passwords my password manager generated were "wrong". Off in time by some unknown amount. No way to fix it, since I would need MFA to log in and fix it anyway.

I had to reset the administrative UI and lose my user settings/admin preferences, but it did hang on to the data on the drives, luckily.
That one works, thanks!

> most Western European countries are much more restrictive than the liberal American states.

Um... The most liberal European places are more restrictive than conservative states. Florida tried a fifteen week ban and that was controversial.

Meanwhile abortion is illegal, unconstitutional in fact, in Germany and only decriminalized before fifteen weeks. After that, it's only decriminalized for certain cases.
The outgoing Nixon administration had to cover their tracks for some reason.
I believe that lots of the pushback on the game are due to poor defaults. Lots of unnecessary graphics settings are enabled, leading to bad first time experiences. After disabling elements that most users won't care about (motion blur, volumetric clouds, global illumination) and following some tips from people online, I find no issue enjoying the game >60fps without my GPU fans screaming. (to be fair, using 7900x / 3090)

Yes the graphics need optimization, but they could have rolled out the release with good defaults and just admitted that high end graphics needed more time... but you can enjoy the game in the meantime! Instead, their steam reviews will remain marred.
Maybe. They say "... tick must be attached for 36 to 48 hours or more before the Lyme disease bacterium can be transmitted. If you remove a tick quickly (within 24 hours), you can greatly reduce your chances of getting Lyme disease."

https://www.cdc.gov/lyme/transmission/index.html

The article that you reference says that rash takes 3 days to develop, she feels discomfort from the bite almost immediately and the site gets visibly inflamed in less than 3 hours. So I think it is a reaction to the saliva of the tick. We would almost certainly remove it in less than 12. We probably have had that bacterium at some point but we haven't had any of the other symptoms, the characteristic "bullseye" rash, etc. If we ran to the doctor every time we got bit by a tick we'd be on antibiotics for 4 months of the year and certainly suffering from intestinal dysbiosis all the time.

We know a lot of people who've gotten it and are very aware. The thing about Lyme is that it has certain characteristics that make it very compelling to hypochondriacs and about 20 years before the real Lyme epidemic there was an epidemic of people who thought they had Lyme disease so it is a real mess.

The trend that I have found to be truly aggravating is restaurants recognizing that sometimes I just want to look at the menu. I don't want to place an order. Don't make me tell you when I want to pick up my order or where I want it delivered. I just want to browse and make a decision later.
With sim games it's not purely about clock speed or TDP. The previous generation 5800X3D outperformed the newest chips in simulation games for a while thanks to it's very large cache.
