Arguably, > 1G is outside the range of home equipment as most consumers have no need for it. You're asking a 2.5G router, a WiFi 6 AP, and a multi-gig switch all in one package. Most people who care about these also know better than to buy an all-in-one router since they are typically very limited in configuration options, especially if you need any sort of routing tables.

ASUS has some all-in-ones with 2x 10GbE ports but I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
The scenario I'm thinking about is the one that superkuh brings up above:

> The USA could be gone and bitcoin would still work.

An event that caused the USA to dissolve would likely signal a network disruption on such a level that satellite access or maintenance could not be guaranteed and that global Internet access might feasibly be partitioned or disrupted (or could fail completely given the amount of international cooperation involved in maintaining the Internet).

In addition to potentially breaking access to the network (or damaging the network to such a high degree that it ceased to be a global network), a disruption of that scale could also basically break mining given the amount of mining that is localized within the US. Or substitute China if you want. It's not clear to me that Blockstream's satellites or general satellite Internet would be sufficient for mining pools even if they were sufficient for signaling transactions to the Internet.

----

On a less catastrophic level, power also becomes a problem. I mentioned Gaza above, which currently has extremely limited access to electricity. It is hard to imagine maintaining a mining pool or securing transactions in that environment.

Satellite connections do obviously help with access in those limited situations, but people in those situations are relying on the majority of the mining pool and the network being centralized in stable locations with stable governments. In which case, I would question the currency's independence or reliability as a fallback currency during global financial collapse -- an event that would destabilize not just individual small pockets of users but the actual network itself.

----

It is definitely true that the scenario is unlikely, but if Bitcoin is being sold by people like superkuh as if it is a disaster-proof security that could survive global financial collapse or the elimination of the USA... I don't think it would survive that.

To be fair, that's not necessarily the thing that makes it a bad currency though, you're right to point that out. The reliance on connectivity does make it a bad currency but not because I'm worried about the Internet vanishing, more because the reliance on global consensus makes it slow and inconvenient to use for everyday transactions.

The disaster stuff is largely just an imagined scenario and there's no reason why a "good" currency needs to be disaster-proof in order to be useful. But if that imagined scenario is being used as a selling point for the coin (which I think superkuh was doing), that's when I start to take issue with it.

Ubiquiti lost me as an advocate when they stopped releasing Protect software as a software package and required running it on their hardware.

I was intrigued to run protect on a cloud server with a 5g failure wan connection. But they got greedy. And now this.

Businesses desire either money printing machines or money printing operators. Generic printer architects are rarely needed because they’re not specialized in printing money fast. Nevertheless postings say they’re looking for architects.

It is not compatible with UDM Pro wireguard server directly, so it’s basically a standalone solution.

Now that you mention it, the small PowerEdge is not that expensive and might be the best way to deploy as Intel Xeon has AES NI.
Depending on how the language works and what it allows you to do, your compiler's error messages can only be so helpful, though. I mean, imagine replacing "C and C++" in your message with "Brainfuck". Error messages would be guaranteed to be very low-level, so won't help you solve the actual higher-level problems.
Because "as a default" statement is missing?
You'll see a whole bandwagon of people saying things like, "supporting old hardware is BAD! It takes time and money that nobody has!", as though someone needs to be hired to sit around and do nothing but pore over code and constantly rewrite code for old hardware.

There's plenty of evidence to the contrary, but since when has evidence mattered when it comes to defending the right of big business / big distro to do whatever they want? ;)

Really, this is just laziness and sloppiness on the Linux distro makers' part. Any amount of testing would catch this. Thanks, Rachel!
I've hiked around there for decades and had no idea.

It would probably be helpful to know the output of the command “dpkg-architecture” and the contents of the file “/etc/os-release”. Otherwise it will be hard to make any useful comments.
Electronics separate form and function. The behavior can be anything we want with almost no extra cost. Plus, we can make module and reuse it in thousands of products with only code changes.

Electronics lets us pack in more complexity, giving us a place to compensate for imperfections elsewhere, such as users leaving babies behind in hot cars.

Plus without proprietary restrictions, nearly every vehicle and appliances in the world could probably use the same 5 modules or so for everything, making repairs rather easy.

You and everyone else has experimented with LLMs. It's not remarkable enough to put on your resume, IMO.
Globalization commingles the economies of different countries. You can no longer talk about the US's labor force and the Chinese labor force as different things. Also rentier capitalism raised labor costs via rents.

For me, seeing text in a dream is an immediate tell because it makes no sense and when you look away, and look again, the text is different. Our brains seem to cat /dev/random anytime we are dreaming and the dream requires, like seeing magazines at the checkout of a grocery store.

So...I'm skeptical.
While TP-Link offers simple routers and basic networking equipment (which I’ve found to be 100% reliable at home), they do also offer their Omada based products which seem to compete with Ubiquity’s products.

All their Omada products can communicate with a controller which can auto configure the devices and actively coordinate handover of clients between WiFi APs.

I’m running it in my house and I’m pretty happy. Through the controller web page UI you centrally define your VLANs and wireless networks and then it updates all your equipment configuration for you.

I don’t think I’d ever bother with their gateway product as pfSense seems to be way more capable.

It is not unusual for me to have a for-loop running for a few hours as it is processing thousands of small objects or just a few dozen of large ones. A debugger wouldn't necessarily help me in this case and this decorator would be a little easier to set up than a logger.
That’s fair enough it is a bit hard to articulate, I suppose.

I think there’s something about the medium of a document, a thing with a reader/viewer and an authoring tool, that you can send to people and they can send you ( fully specified rather than just a URL) that is distinct from what the web is.

It may seem so obvious that it is almost invisible, but there’s something very powerful about organizing a form of content of a medium into a document format. Shareable, distributable.

It may be an imprecise analogy or example from a non-expert but humans had writing for a long time before we really created documents like account books, printed books, legal contracts, all these genres of documents, somehow lifts whatever it is that writing is, into a new form and power by virtue of them being encapsulated in a document. In a similar way that the creation of video movie and song documents (cassette tapes records, VHS, film emulsion, etc.) lifted visual and audio information into a new, medium and power, because these documents became first class currencies of exchange of that.

I just think the same as possible to lift web writing, so Web technologies into a document format as well.

A small, but non-trivial part of this is that zipping a website and sending it it’s not really a hackable document in the same was DOCX is, and it won’t display in the same way as a regular website if you serve it from files.

Ask HN: How do you implement authorization in Django?
I have just joined a startup where we build a privacy-related muli-tenant SaaS offering. We are thinking of using Django for it. Django has lot of features and libraries for authentication , 2FA etc but I can't find much on Authorisation. What do you guys use?
We can't use any proprietary/closed-source solutions due to the nature of the product.

Any suggestions is appreciated?
One of my favorite math quotes -- definitions are neither true nor false, they're either useful or not useful.

So this misses it a bit. You can divide 0 by 0 for example and it's 1. In fact you've probably already done it without thinking about it because it's so intuitive.

f(x) = sum(x^n, n=0, 2)
= x^2 + x + 1
f(0) = 0^0 + 0^1 + 0^2 = 1

and 0^0 = 0/0. It's a definition that's useful. If you remember your calculus you probably also remember that inf * 0 is also indeterminate but in measure theory you just define it to be 0 and move on.

Also you can just straight up divide any number by 0 on the Riemann Sphere (the complex
numbers adjoin infinity) and such a construction turns out to be good for modeling real world things.

The floating point numbers adjoin infinity and make some definitions to make them work and it's good because again it's useful for the calculations people want to do.

I get that it's not satisfying but division by 0 is whatever we want it to be because the answer isn't prescribed by the ring axioms. But if you make it too weird it won't by good for anything and every theorem and formula will have to account for your special case.

> Everyone talks to their babies a lot

Most people talk to their babies at least sometimes, but observing families there are huge differences between how much people talk to their babies, how they talk to them, what subjects they talk about, how many different languages they use, etc.
Migrating an in-use TCP session from one host to another is far from easy.

I did it for a project and the number of corner cases is insane - both in the TCP protocol (what of the window has holes in? What if the connection is half closed?), but also in the OS's handling of the TCP state and interactions with userspace (will be correctly wake up a process poll()'ing a socket if we migrate the socket after a packet is received but before the kernel wakes the poll()ING process?)
I hope they solved the cooling.

> But if we have 2 * 0 = 0, the inverse of that would be 0 / 0 = 2, which is just not true.

This is complete non-sense. You defined a number (zero) and defined a relation (2 * 0 = 0). Then you concluded that 0 / 0 = 2 is not true? You could also equally say that 0 / 0 = 2 or any number or non-number really.
Americans don’t know how nice their comparative living standard is relative to the living standard in most of the world. Many examples of average European (depends on the country), and average Asian or average Gulf state families have a lot of asterisks when trying to find a similar standard of living, and access to opportunities. Not my opinion, here’s some data: https://www.worlddata.info/average-income.php

The misfortune of Americans is that influx of lower skilled immigrants requires nanny state policies to prevent humanitarian crises. Doubly unfortunate is that American colleges attract student populations from deeply flawed and suffering countries, leading to understandable feelings of their own country having experienced unfairness and injustice “by the West”, whatever that means (it’s just veiled racism and sour grapes in many instances). I don’t labor under any delusions that “Capitalism” is the reason why life is hard for the average human in the world (let alone the U.S.). Given any other system, human nature will set things up the same.

Generally, it doesn’t pay to be optimistic about the behavior of people, anyone who is not in a position of power shouldn’t be expected to behave any differently than those who currently are in power. In fact, history has shown, and it continues to do so, that losers in the past behave the same as their oppressors. In short, Americans don’t know how lucky they are and they should hope that their luck continues.
It's not explicitly stated but in her reproduction she is actually running it on the pi, and compilers very much do normally compile for the arch that they are running on by default.

A compiler which compiles for a different arch is called a cross-compiler. Unless you explicitly asked for a cross compile, it is indeed surprising for a compiler to emit a binary that won't run on the same machine.
It sounds like clang running on the RPi 1 generates code that doesn't run. Usually compilers default to targeting whatever ISA it's running on but that doesn't seem to be the case here.
I didn't see it addressed here or in the article: this is a bug, right?

Edit: oddly, after searching LLVM bugs, I found a bug that sounds pretty much exactly like this issue... but it's from 2012 and is closed (although the final couple of comments make it sound like maybe it wasn't actually fixed--note: I only skimmed the comments and I probably misunderstood):

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/13989

Edit again: I forgot about the comment at the end of the article that clarifies that explicitly passing the target results in a working program. In that case, it sounds like some sort of configuration bug--I would assume (but am not certain) that the default target would be the current processor, at least on Unix. That bug I linked was probably about producing incorrect code even when the target was set correctly which, thankfully, isn't happening today.
It can have to do with allergies. However, it might be something else if it has recently worsened or become more noticeable. Has it always been the same?

As someone studying education... you're right, but you're also kind of a prick.

Actually, let me rephrase. It's a bad situation all-round. I assume you didn't tell your friend's kid to go in and argue with her teacher. (If you did, then you are a prick. Otherwise, I rescind the above.) At that age, kids want to tell people when they learn fun or exciting things (well, that's not really restricted to that age), but they don't always think through the effects of saying them. Now, I definitely do know a number of elementary teachers who aren't great at math, but even if the teacher is good at math, imagine their perspective. Off the top of my head, I can only think of a small number of options: 1. agree, move on, and have a bunch of kids who are either confused or are going around telling everyone they know "1 + 1 = 10" without understanding why; 2. scrap whatever lesson they were supposed to do and go into a long, unplanned explanation of how different number bases work and interact with place value; 3. tell the girl she's wrong. Quite frankly, none of these are good options.

I can't really fault you for teaching her fun math, but for an elementary teacher that's a really rough spot to be put in.

And yes, letting everyone be argumentative all the time is how classroom management goes out the window.
Your view is a common one, but the flip side of that is cost.

Ask someone to make a flood, earthquake and fireproof building and they can price it up and decide if they want to proceed.

One maimed human from an accident/incident/event that could have been prevented, and the cost can dwarf the expense of building better.

The Pacific rim is somewhere that is fairly prone to natural disasters. Here in NZ, an earthquake in Christchurch [1] killed 185 people, 115 of them in a single building that didn’t meet the building code. If that building’s defects were known, and it had been classed a work of art, that makes the situation worse in my view.

As others have noted, you can make old buildings safer. Can’t they do that?

In case of refactoring / restructuring, that's exactly so.

But "drop support for this old hardware" is meant to be an intended decision with a clear deprecation warning, not accidentally.

I think we will always fill up the storage available as we crank up the fidelity of our recordings (simulations). Video is an approximation of reality, and we can always ramp up the resolution, ramp up the dimensions, always striving to simulate the universe at the same fidelity as the universe itself, to the point that the map becomes the territory itself. In other words, until it's no longer approximating, no longer compressing. There will never be enough storage to store our simulations of our reality as long as we're forced to use that same reality to construct the storage.

A Lot of Energy intensive Companies in Germany and probably other European Countries, are leaving and going to the USA or China. Because of the high energy prices, we have now.
> One last thing I want to leave you with is that anyone is free to do whatever they want with electricity they've paid for, be it computer gaming, drying clothes or lighting the outside of their house at Christmas (all of which use comparable amounts to bitcoin mining).

I'm happy to head off here, but quick note that Bitcoin mining also does use substantially more energy than all of these activities, it's not comparable.
I'm pretty sure in this case it's movement of factories from Europe, due to energy costs there.
