"What China offers beside electronic components? "

It is a magical place with a rich and old culture. When I lived there, I don't think anywhere people partied harder than there. Bars that were empty and filling up at 2pm and people dancing on the table. And I don't mean a Saturday night, I mean a Monday. Or Clubs that fill up at 8 or 9 AM. You could smell business opportunity in the air. Doors were open It was a place where things happened. It was a weird place. A crazy place. When there was no place left for me in this world. China welcomed me with open arms. Gave me food and shelter and access to health care.

"Is there unique a place that can't be found in a other city in your home country?"

There are many.

"Please don't tell me food is good in China. Food is good in any country."

Doubt it. There are only a few major cuisines in the world with China being one of them. Sure, you can get great food in NYC. You can eat in a Michelin Star restaurant. But this does not give America a great cuisine.

And Chinese women are outstanding.

This is often possible to work around by adding a UUID to the message, on the sender side. Then either handle dupes at the DB level by ignoring duplicate inserts, or using something like redis. In practice, even with other queue systems, you can wind up with dupes due to bugs, timeouts, retries, like duplicate sends when the first one actually went through but wasn't acknowledged. I worked on systems sending thousands of messages/second through rabbitmq, originating from various third parties, and dupes would happen often enough that we needed to work around it on the receiving "worker" side.
Your comment is unclear, but if you're trying to say that phone location is less precise when determined by a tower (or a set of them), you're correct unless the phone can reach three or more towers, and they do TOA triangulation (which they do).
The bad part was not steelmanning the OP even a tiny bit, when you're fully familiar with the idea and expectation.
> As for detecting gravitational waves, except for violent events like black hole mergers, we don't detect any; what few such gravitational waves there are are far too weak for us to detect.

I thought LIGO and VIRGO had been detecting gravitational waves for the last 4 years pretty regularly (i.e. once a week).
Chemistry in earth certainly started with the formation of earth.

Are you suggesting that abiogenesis didn’t start on earth, but self-replicating molecules started evolving in earths protoplanetary disc?

Serious question, haven’t encountered that theory before. It’s kinda panspermia-lite.
I don't believe that partially automated driving, as shown by Autopilot is fit for human use. People will rely on it as if it's fully automated and more accidents like this will happen.

We see this same problem with face recognition software that says an innocent man's face matches a criminal. The cops just accept what the computer says and arrest people because the computer says it's a match.

We can't have the machine do stuff for us unless it's superior to human judgment, or the stakes are much lower than ruining lives.

They do, although there are some organizational aspects to consider. Each nation has its own Red Cross/Red Crescent/Red Diamond committee and draws first from its own local roster. Other nations request specific expertise from sister committees from time to time, but it’s pretty rare. The American Red Cross, for example, deploys about 2 dozen individuals to support foreign disaster relief operations in a given year. As I recall that involves mainly people who are really good at setting up comms infrastructure, management experts, and GIS experts.

The ICRC, as I understand it, works more across international lines, but their “technical” experts tend to specialize in aspects of international humanitarian law rather than technology per se.

You certainly can, though, support domestic relief operations for the American Red Cross. Disaster Support Technologies roles tend to have more of a helpdesk flavor than the remote, wild-and-wooly jack-of-all-trades kind of experience that the OP describes. And there are also information and planning functions on large disaster relief operations, where your data analysis and GIS chops might be put to good use.

Those jobs sometimes unfold in austere conditions—think after a hurricane or a wildfire—but they’re extremely well-supported, by contrast to the OP’s missions: you’ll have a safe and dry place to sleep, plenty to eat, the national warehouses will get you the stuff you need (albeit maybe not today), and so forth. The training is thorough and the crowd is mission-oriented. You can even work I&P roles remotely.
> While this works, I find this method a bit tedious to use, at least compared to Ventoy [0].

No, I find ventoy more tedious, because you can't use it as a standalone on your hard drive with a sane partitioning scheme.

The only reason is because of how the ventoy detection hardcodes the partition boundaries in its checks, and it means Ventoy can only run with the partitions set in a way that may lead to alignment issues like write-amplification: I've detailed that in https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/issues/1342

It used to be a warning - now it's a stopping error, causing the boot to hang. I don't like the boot to hang if the partition boundaries are changed.

Ideally I'd have a 10G partition after the EFI (or it could even be the EFI itself) with a few ISOs for rescue purposes + a UEFI entry to avoid having to use a bootable USB: automatically booting the ISOs in case the normal UEFI entry has a problem is less tedious that having to find and plug a thumbdrive.

I could give Ventoy its own partition wherever, but that's not possible unless I accept Ventoy hardcoded choices of partition boundaries:

(pMBR->PartTbl[0].StartSectorId != 2048 ||
pMBR->PartTbl[1].SectorCount != 65536 ||
pMBR->PartTbl[1].StartSectorId != pMBR->PartTbl[0].StartSectorId + pMBR->PartTbl[0].SectorCount)

If you don't accept this, and want to boot of multiple ISO files by a grub2 bootloader, whether from a thumbdrive or a hard drive, also check the old https://github.com/a1ive/grub2-filemanager (now archived)

Just read this in Chip War (p. 333) by Chris Miller:

> Gelsinger has cut a deal with ASML to let Intel acquire the first next-generation EUV machine, which is expected to be ready in 2025. If Intel can learn how to use these new tools before rivals, it could provide a technological edge.

Is the book talking about the same tech or different? If the same, does it mean that Intel only gets a year or two of headstart?

If you can get up on a penny farthing, you're most of the way there, and the electric should be a bit easier for that. Fixie experience is good for figuring out how to stop the damn thing, but penny farthings go wrong in very different ways.
Some do. About 15 years ago I was doing a regular weekly commute and due to my size at the time, Southwest would ask me to purchase two seats. If the flight was not full they would refund one ticket. Since Southwest uses first come first serve seating, you would get preboard status and a little card to place in the second seat.

I was ok with that accommodation, it seemed reasonable and with a little research into the flights and how often they were truly full it was rare that i didn’t get a refund.

I would like the NHTSA to gather and publish robust data on:

• Crashes per mile on each manufacturer's "self-driving" systems

• Crashes per mile on each manufacturer's LKAS (lane keeping assistant) systems

• Crashes per mile on each manufacturer's TACC (traffic aware cruise control)

• Crashes per mile on each manufacturer's regular cruise control

• Crashes per mile under manual control

Break each out by highway, suburban, city, and car model year. Also include whether the crash resulted in injuries and deaths, and whether those deaths were occupants or not.

Then we can actually determine where the problem is, and the scope of it.

I use a UBPorts Pinephone as my daily driver. Sometimes I wonder about the security implications of that decision. I imagine there are WAY more vulnerabilities for a phone like mine, compared to iOS/Android. It's buggy enough from a user perspective, let alone a security one.

I would second this, if you really want to learn hardware then Arduino (etc) won’t help as much as jumping into something a bit lower level.

Sure, but it's not like the rest of the world is standing still. Iran and China are starting to pump out cheap ballistic antiship missiles, and they're also demonstrating combined low-cost EO/IR/Radar seekers to defeat EW. Russia has deployed semi-autonomous EO seekers on their low-cost Lancet drones (image recognition detects a target, the operator confirms it, and then the drone navigates itself), and China even has EO/Radar fusion in their latest generation of air-to-air missiles.

Also, SeaRAM only has 12 missiles worth of depth.

Increasingly, it just seems like large surface ships are not very survivable at close ranges.

It depends, on what you want to do. - Electronics is now huge, and have few extremely different parts, which could be all in one project.

As example, you mentioned 3d printers, they have digital part, power electronic part and some could have optic (vision) part.

To be honest, in University typical person learn few years, and become master in one part, and learn others by books or now by videos.

What I see from my experience, nearly all programmers absolutely don't understand chemistry, and it is really important for electronics, because you could damage expensive components with wrong chemistry.

Second thing, physics, probably astronomy good fit.

Electronics itself is not hard, if you know enough chemistry and physics, but without them, will be constant impostor syndrome.
Could you elaborate on that? I wasn't able to confirm that, but I'm massively out of the loop too.

SSH certificates aren't X.509; they're much simpler.

I suspect age correlates with vehicle choice and know it correlates with accident rates, so I'm not sure those figures would tell you what you think they're telling you.

Manslaughter is also a felony.

Even the language around automobiles is corrupted. Essentially all "accidents" aren't.

Owning and operating a multi-ton machine capable of travelling at high speed and rapidly accelerating is a huge responsibility. Being distracted isn't an accident, it's negligence. Not mechanically maintaining the vehicle is negligence. Not supervising your vehicle, even when you have some sort of digital aid enabled, is negligence. None of these are accidents.

Calling a system that is not fully self-driving "autopilot" while knowing exactly what the general public considers that term to mean is....something worse than negligence.

"Nigel gave me a drawing that said 2nm. Your understanding of pitch width and packaging technology is not my problem. I do what I'm told."
yes re table definition.

To answer your question, for indexing there's a couple of options:
- if you know which fields you want to index, use an expression index with a regular B-tree.
- if you don't know which fields you want to index, use a GIN index on the whole field.

Blogpost which covers both cases:
https://scalegrid.io/blog/using-jsonb-in-postgresql-how-to-e...

That said, I generally don't bother indexing the "raw" table, but instead create a parsed+summary table that breaks out the fields I want to index into 'real' sql columns and summarizes the data to reduce the number of records. In particular, I use a partitioned table for the raw data which keeps the data-per-table tiny enough to fit in RAM, and "real time" queries just hit the latest raw table(s). For big, real-time data, I sometimes use TABLESAMPLE queries to create estimates, or triggers to do exact counting (which is what NoSQL databases do, just without the nice structure of triggers).
This has been my experience with alpine as well. musl just ends up causing much more trouble than it is worth

Keep in mind 125 people are killed on the roads every single day in the US.
If all vehicles magically switched to this system overnight and the system only killed 100 people per day, that would be a huge win.

The fact some people will be killed by automated driving systems is not enough to ban them. If it was, we would ban all cars.

The only important statistic is if those systems kill less people than the current state of affairs.
Possible to detect an industrial civilization in geological record? (2018)
Just to head off the inevitable comments about how 2nm isn't really 2nm: yes, we know, it's just a convention in the industry to indicate relative performance. It's basically a marketing term, more than anything else.

The numbers VLSI engineers actually care about are things like millions of transistors per square millimeter (MTr/mm^2), power per bit in picojoules (pJ), transistor rise times in nanoseconds, etc...

In those metrics, steady gains have been made, it's just that the actual component sizes haven't matched up to the gains recently. Instead, new types of technologies like "gate-all-around" have been used to eke out more performance instead of simply shrinking everything proportionally.
Not really. It really designed to prevent anyone else having MongoDB DBaaS without having license from MongoDB, which it does rather successfully.
I think most people using crypto for illegal purposes will mainly be transacting with people that don't know their identity, so that is not a deanonymising risk.

Data from the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency recently found that ICE cars could be up to 20 times more likely to catch fire. https://www.msb.se/sv/aktuellt/nyheter/2023/maj/brander-i-el...

That's not to say that problems with the Bolt weren't serious but they are not representative of the EV market as a whole.
