Exactly this. Current ham regs in the digital modes really, really limits what you can do, and keeps it in the dark ages compared to what goes on in 900mhz and 2.4ghz with unlicensed devices. We need to get back to where having a ham license means you can do cutting edge things!
> find a cryptography expert that agrees with you

Do you think they'd be biased to answer in a certain way?

Additionally every cryptography expert know the system is only as good as the keys not being found, and that can come from other means not just breaking the algorithm or brute force... it can be how the key was created and what tool was used.

With time all encryption will be broken, we may be gone by then but maybe something comes along that changes the game. History is filled with leaps that were not expected. The early keys will get weaker and weaker over time, that is fact.

In any case, you are focusing on the wrong thing. I was talking about this concerned about the contentration in currency as the problem, not necessarily the encryption/key.
I've done both strongly typed & "less typed" languages over the last couple of decades, and I do not find the current situation a problem in Elixir. We're using Dialyzer on my main project, without too much interest I must say. I am following the discussions on that topic (improving types in Elixir) with interest, but it's not an issue for me at the moment (and large refactorings occur without much troubles either).

I think the fact that most functions are "pure" / "static" is really helping with refactorings.
This has very little to do with nomads and everything with tourism.

15 years ago Lisbon was in terrible shape, mostly collapsing due to rent controls.

And this is still the case to a degree. You have an enormous number of houses where the (older than, I think, 55) tenants pay 50 Euros per month that cannot be increased and the landlords pay more than that just in taxes and basic fees. So no renovation is done, everything is falling apart.
Cloudflare workers support wasm via JavaScript. At least I believe that if you write a worker in rust what happens is that CF wraps your wasm in the correct js to provide environment bindings.

In practice it make little to no difference, but CF workers are indeed js first

> If you can make a fixture that is substantially smaller on the outside, you can just check it into version control instead of having to fiddle with generating them or storing them in some external store, where they tend to rot.

You _can_ check fairly large files into version control without any real issues, especially if you're aware of the limitations.

For example, in git, if you have a 20GB file that never (or rarely) changes, it'll work great. The only real reason to avoid that would be if most people who clone the repo won't need that file, or if your repo host (eg github) gets mad.

There's certainly times you'd want to avoid it and find other solutions, but it should be a tool in the box when needed IMO, and a lot of people just don't even consider it.
If you are at low risk of dying, such as a possible broken bone, you should first consider going to an urgent care center https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urgent_care_center . They are more affordable and targeted towards injuries like that. Leave the ER for the gunshots and heart attacks.

It‘s not misleading. You take home 9600 in my opinion.

What you call the marginal rate is applied to the full salary as far as I know. And the social security is also applied to the full amount unless the person is employed by a Portuguese company that would pay half.

Even the most optimistic tax accountants say around 70% minimum is to be paid with various options applied. That would leave 24.000. Portugal has many loopholes of course, but the idea of the article or OP was that these loopholes are not needed or unfair. While I‘m saying they are needed or otherwise nobody would go there.

Now let me add that many nomads also have to pay into various things from their home countries. While there are double taxation agreements the story on health insurance and retirement funds and social security is much more complicated.

Unless you cut all ties to home you can come out with even less.

> it’s how arbitration agreements work [...] It’s not a blanket covering of all dealings with a company by default.

Again, I agree that's how things ought to be, but in practice it seems like the "wrong" outcomes are still happening anyway.

For example [0] a company allegedly sold a customers products contaminated with bedbugs--a physical, tangible good with a harmful defect--and one guy started a class-action lawsuit over it. However the company managed to get a judge to cancel the lawsuit and force everything back into arbitration, based on the website ToS.

If you read the details [1] you'll see the consumer made all the sensible arguments just like the ones you're saying would easily prevail against McDonalds... but they didn't work.

This is very exciting, and hopefully can be a big aspect in getting off-the-shelf 100W radios capable of doing I/Q out over USB instead of the stupid audio interfaces we're stuck with today.
> You miss the point, it is not about communication as in having a conversation.

Yes, but, running a "yep, I can hear that" test is a lot less interesting and motivating, for most people, than being able to actually do something quasi-practical with the radio link.
Worth noting that nearly everything that claims to run from 24 Vac also runs from 5Vdc. Nearly everything modern has a little circuit board which just detects 'voltage' or 'no voltage'.

The exception is 'dumb' solenoids, valves, pumps etc, which are actually powered by the 24Vac.
Kids in school see cameras watching them everywhere except inside the washrooms and changerooms. In the school my partner works at, there are so many cameras, you are on more than one at any given time, and the cafeteria is crazy loaded with them. So surveillance to them is a nothingburger.

Unfortunately it'll be really hard to explain to them as they get older why government surveillance is a bad thing.
> This will make the problem worse as the Portuguese will complain that the foreigners own the beautiful modern buildings.

I don't agree. We already have expensive housing in every country that those who aren't wealthy might covet. Also, new construction can be done in a way where you set aside, say, 20% of the units for locals in the same way that cities like NYC try to (but, you know, better).

> Additionally it‘s important to keep in mind that this is not feasible for EU countries with the four freedoms.

That's not strictly true [1] eg Malta.

Where it isn't possible, restricting non-EU citizens would still have a positive impact.

Also, where you can't actually restrict people, you can effectively do it with taxation, like having high property taxes for non-residents. This would be perfectly legal. US states do this too (eg a non-Indiana resident pays higher property taxes than an Indiana resident).

You can also discourage rampant property speculation with high transfer taxes, again targeted at foreign buyers.

> A baud is a raw bit in a digital data stream, it can either be data or part of the channel protocol.

If we wanna be pedantic, a baud is not a bit, it's a symbol. It may be equivalent in some modulation schemes but in things like quadrature amplitude modulation, 1 baud > 1 bit. It goes up to 32768-QAM at 15 bits per symbol.

It's not? I think you're right after having read the law [1][2] it outlaws any expression of support.

In the case of a government organization like Hamas that's pretty absurd.

I don't agree with most of what they're doing, but I'd think that e.g. expressing support for their efforts to provide clean drinking water to their constituents wouldn't be illegal, but the text of the law seems to clearly state that it would be.

lol @ filtering "politically biased content". If you apply this filter you're not neutralizing biases, just adding a bias towards the status quo. The status quo being by definition not progressive, that unfortunately means you've given yourself a conservative bias.

You've also offloaded the decision about what is political material to an AI - which has a biased view of what is politically biased based on its training data.

Sorry what? It's strictly the opposite: more character to type equals more risks to make a mistake.

In fact, in the general case, namespace increase the risk of supply chain attacks, because it makes packages names even less discernable.
Mortgage Bankers bonuses were loans and now they’re being clawed back
Something I often "draw" to other developers when showing Elixir is the difference in terms of "boundaries".

It is common to have:

frontend <-JSON-> backend <-db/queue-> background jobs

Each boundary introduces complexity (marshalling / impedance mismatch / but also different HR/recruiting needs).

In Elixir you can more or less do:

front/back/background

with no boundaries or reduced boundaries (e.g. using LiveView & OBAN in the same process, even if going through Postgres as a queue).

Someone coined the term "deepstack engineer" as well recently I think, which I could draw as:

frontend <-> backend <-> background <-> machine learning

Now with Elixir you can do everything in the same process (but with isolation as required):

front/back/background/ml

And this is something I find really interesting about this stack.

When it comes to the authenticity of a signed document, the cryptographic proofs generated by our solution and digital traces are no different than those generated by DocuSign.

A lot irked me about the bankers in this post but what was interesting is that, at least in this industry, bonuses were structured as loans forgiven after 2 years?

Elixir has features called guards which allow you to check for a condition to be true before a function is called(and will match another version of the same function if it is false). This is used as a crude form of type checking.
On x86 the cache is implicit when you touch memory, and there are many ISA ops (push, call, ...) that implicitly update stack memory.

But if you never call those, it is possible to access the cache explicitly. Coreboot have a custom in-tree compiler, ROMCC [1] that compiles C to a subset of x86 that never emits memory operations.

They use this to treat cache as RAM [2] for a brief period during early boot before the RAM itself gets initialized.

Anyone else have reliability issues with the ESP32?

I have a few of them connected to various wifi networks, and after a couple of years they always seem to disconnect and need a power cycle before they'll reconnect.

I understand they might lose the wifi connection, or their DHCP lease, or there might be interference, or something blasts too many packets at them, or a TCP connection hangs or gets RST... But after any of those, I expect them to recover, reconnect, and continue working. However, even a hello world web server on ESP32 seems unable to do that.

However, it's really hard to track down bugs that only happen once a year when I only have ~10 of these devices.
To provide some balance to this article. Two weeks ago my wife took our kid to another child’s birthday party. The family had rented a bounce house so they invited neighbors and their kids over to have fun as well. Food was done as a potluck. One neighbor decided to bring a crock of THC infused chili to this kids party and decided not to tell anyone. My wife and about 8 others were dosed without their knowledge when they ate the chili. Luckily none of the kids at the party had any. This did impact us as my wife was breastfeeding our newborn and had to stop for a while in order to prevent any thing from passing to the baby. So, of course this article is satire and no one is maliciously sticking fentanyl in candy. However, people can do strange things for strange reasons. My wife had a large enough helping of chili that she felt the effects into the next day.
Can’t speak for innovation, but on efficiency; in terms of percentage of GDP spend (which is also significantly greater per capita on the US side); the US spends greater than 65% more of GDP than Portugal on healthcare but has among the worst overall outcomes of the ”developed” world.

It is the most expensive healthcare system in the world that provides excellent healthcare for the richest people in the world (perhaps in the top 3 for this category of “customer”), but in terms of efficiency, outcomes, and statistics that matter for the general population, it is barely in the top 30.

You can put a program with 50 lines and 10 bugs in production. :)

To me "production" also means "runs reliably over long periods of time, does not fall over under load, and has no unexpected panics". Well, and also "makes full use of the available computing resources and prevents lag as much as possible".

"Toy" is basically "I am such a huge fan of LISP, I am convinced that the world absolutely needs one more interpreter!".

>It's a hobbyist set of bands, and encrypting traffic is against the hobbyist spirit of it.

No, it is not. Hobbyist web masters practically all use encryption. It should be possible to use modern protocols like HTTPS. Encryption is the default of modern network protocols. On the internet trasitioning from a hobby website to a commercial one is seamless.
