Ah, caught one of my unspoken assumptions when talking about suppliers - I try to avoid operations that are very custom / very different from their normal operations.

In this case, yes, any local machine shop could theoretically get or make the gear cutters, get a piece of the stock the correct diameter (/turn down from larger), mount it in a mill with the stock in a rotary fixture of some sort, then cut the teeth. Again, Clickspring has a bunch of videos on the process, including different ways to make the cutter. All that being said, you'd have to be on very good terms with your local machine shop folks, or be willing to pay for all of that new tooling and setup stuff, to get any random shop to make the part.

Going with someone like SDPSI might be better for this specific part, as it's in the realm of what they do.

Could also look at starting with "timing pulley stock" - it's basically the part that was shown elsewhere, but without the internal keyway cut. https://www.torontogear.com/bar-stock/ - starting with _that_ - yes, any local machine shop should be able to cut it to length, mount it in a mill and mill out the slot (with a small enough endmill).

One more recommendation here, based on what Uncle said about buying stock - and this is a part of design for manufacture in general - is to design around standard parts. Look at SDPSI/Toronto Gear for common gear specs (IIRC "module" is the main property defining a gear and how they will mesh with other gears - so stick with one module size), pick one and change your design to use those off the shelf parts.
I was asking about why specifically it's surprising that humans are good at such problems. I think that to be surprising there must be some prior expectation about how good humans should be and then evidence that they're actually better than that. Both sides of that are interesting and I'd like to know more about it: What is the prior expectation of human capabilities here (and why), and how does it compare to actual observed capabilities.

I'm not sure sudoku is a good example since the problem size there is so small that I don't have any intuitive sense that it should be something humans can't do.
If it results in in a better predictor of outcomes than the unadjusted SAT, it would be hard to justify the latter but not the former. I have no idea whether this is actually the case.
You're right, and indeed that's another big reason to be against any more countries getting nuclear weapons.

I think the other commenter was hoping for some compelling reasons why you prefer OpenHAB over HA. On the surface both system seem very similar, I can't really figure out where they differ from looking at both homepages.

Then when I clicked again it loaded.

Then I clicked the one for D3 and it said the same. And I clicked it again and it still said the same.

Is this some kind of weird manifestation of a DB conn error or something?

> To be really pedantic, a $20,000 drone out of Yemen is 0.1% of Yemen GDP.

Yemen's GDP is $21B, not $21M.
Sustainability Advantages of LinuxONE [pdf]
As an engineer, saying that $20k, the price of a cheap car, is 1/1000th of a GDP of a whole country does not pass the smell test. Google says that Yemen's GDP is $21.61b, so a drone is 0.0000925% of the GDP. In other words it's about a million drones per year for Yemen, and about 7.7 million interceptors per year for the US.
Are there any advantages to CGI talking to another process (IPC I guess?), or is it just serving traffic with a long-lived process, but with extra steps?

> How on earth are we supposed to manage three or more platforms (browser, Android, iOS)?

Are you sure you need three or more platforms? In my experience, when I ask small companies what they need, they say "everything". If I listen to them, they even need to run on a Gameboy. Then most startups fail, so apparently the problem was not the number of platforms.

It feels like many times, selecting the platforms may be fine.
This will cause a lag in the world logistics causing supply issues again in the next couple of months I think.
This is a clear and crisp way of differentiating delta based vs state based CRDTs.

But I don't think it's accurate enough. For example, the article claims delta based CRDTs don't use vector clocks. But even to decide if a set of events are concurrent it's necessary to attach vector stamps to every event. Maybe the author meant something else when he says vector clocks are not needed for op based CRDTs.

Also as mentioned in article it's true evergrowing event log is not such a bad idea with compression techniques and cheaper disks. But the problem with evergrowing datastructures is not just disk space. This data has to be loaded onto main memory to do anything useful with it. This data has to be transmitted across network to power SaaS apps. So stating that disks are cheaper hence evergrowing datastructures are fine - is an oversimplification.
In this case the decompression blew away the reinforced cockpit door and the rushing air took away their checklist (and almost a headset) so they had to use the reference handbook (and/or do stuff from memory) so it would be interesting to hear how exactly it went. Also their communications were a bit confusing (no mayday?!) perhaps it was discussed in the cockpit.

Well, that was not at all an expected reply, but it's well-received. Thank you for the thoughtful linguistic advice; I'll keep it in mind.
Not if these have been found and removed.
It is likely that there will be no choice between Super and non-Super.

At least 4070 Ti and 4080 have become completely obsolete when their Super variants are much better, and in the case of 4080 Super, even cheaper too.

I suppose that they have stopped producing the non-Super variants, as nobody would want those where the Super cards are available.

I am still using a 2060 Super from 2019, and the same has happened in that year when the RTX 2000 Super series has replaced the previous RTX 2000 series.
Laser / water / plasma / EDM cutting the bottom sounds quite reasonable.

I'm trying to figure out what the application is here. It looks like you want to attach something to a shaft, and trying to use a collet with a set screw. Why not put the set screw in your bottom part? Or perhaps use a shaft key? What kind of forces and what kind of load is this thing taking?

But if I had to answer your direct question: spec some screw holes, welding has downsides for what I think the application is (cost, axis alignment).
How Well Does Apple's Directly Responsible Individual (DRI) Model Work? (2012)

A high profile lawsuit raises questions about the stability of the service.

If changing your processes to include OpenAI is expensive then that’s a big concern.

Wouldn’t surprise me if their sales people are getting questioned on if the lawsuit is an existential threat and this is an attempt at giving them something.
People who weren't there don't understand, but the world before "Ask Your Developer" was completely different than the world we live in today where developers are at the heart of how decisions are made, products are built and how the world itself is changing.

I joined Twilio in 2012 and I saw first hand how pivotal Jeff was in supporting the idea that in order for a platform to be successful it needed to treat developers like first class citizens, and not simply the recipient of a "directive to integrate" from the CTO.

This idea wasn't simply a fist bump to devs for cool points, it was a recognition that developers themselves held the key to innovation and creating radically new things. This culture led to entirely new ways of building API docs, designing developer dashboards, creating developer events, and so on.

So many of these things have become mainstream and the new baseline for platform companies that people forget how unlikely it was in the beginning and how hard Jeff had to fight to keep the company from treating developers as a means, and not as an end. And I think all developers who are happily hacking away on a free tier of a cool API with excellent docs and a vibrant developer community should tip their hat to a person who helped make this normal and influenced a generation of leaders to do the same.
This has almost nothing to do with Java and there is nothing revealing in this blog post. Block device operations on Linux always went through layers of indirection. That's why things like page cache or writeback exist. You can always go O_DIRECT if you need the write to be truly synchronous.

If anything the author just discovered how IO works on Linux.
Sent them a quote request this morning, it'd be interesting to see what they say.
You need to write an AppArmor profile to limit your software. It’s an opt-in system.

The workflow is you put a test system to “complain” mode and use your software as intended, and add the required permissions to the profile by looking at the logs to see what your app is doing. Then you put AppArmor to enforcing mode, add the profile to production system and your application is sandboxed. Iteratively refine as necessary.

Debian desktop comes with AppArmor enabled. Nothing has been broken so far.
People will downvote you but I see nothing wrong with your comment.
Chick'n or other meat alternatives are a way to alternate your fish or meat consumption to reduce it (notice I didn't even say eliminate completely).
Why not replace a few meals with alternatives. People's blood will boil when you tell them their beloved fish will not be an option one day. At this rate factory farmed fish will be your only option and we all know how ethical this process is. Oh I keep forgetting how most people don't care how they produce it as long as they can go out for Sushi.
Every airplane type is a bit different, but typically, if the aircraft is powered then the CVR is recording. Even if it’s at the gate with nobody onboard— the CVR does not know nor care.

The only way to stop the CVR from recording is to depower the airplane (which is one of the steps you take prior to an emergency evacuation) or to pull the circuit breaker if the airplane needs to stay powered.

A pilot would never pull the circuit breaker without confirmation from management or safety to do so. It’s just not done routinely. Depending on the airline, it may not even be the pilot’s responsibility to do so. Every airline has a binder (likely, several binders) full of procedures to follow after a NTSB-reportable accident. No one person is expected to do the job of many.
Huh. I have got the wrong impression, then, from various blogs/articles which suggest never relying on SemVer because it's regarded as as-good-as-useless. Thanks for setting me straight!

We already looked at policing. Police unions have a similar stance about body-cams? They are more invasive because they follow officers to the bathroom, and I am sure they're are safety/effectivenes stats that argue those are unnecessary.

Most civilians don't seem to have much sympathy.
> Only having to develop something once that serves all users is great, though.

Cross-platform usually sucks in some way. If the app is not worse, the development is: "write once, debug everywhere".

Web is solving that by forcing everybody to use the same (Google-controlled) renderer, so that there is no need for cross-platform anymore: just use the Google thing. I don't want that.
Then you lack imagination. Perpetual recording has a chilling effect on communication.
How slow is “dog slow”? And for some purposes “dog slow” is acceptable.

People are going to leave traces on the Moon, this way or another. I see very little difference between landers, rovers, human ashes, and garbage piles astronauts are going to leave near a surface habitat. This isn't something that should be either stopped or encouraged, unless it's something like nuclear waste. Potential biological contamination is another question, and it's been given plenty of thought already.

There are no land property rights on the Moon or any other celestial body, according to the current treaty. It's going to stay that way until the world powers will have something to gain from it. The exploitation of potential water resources already caused some talk on that matter.
So, I have this game (https://zaranova.xyz/) where the AI tries to guess who is a human and you as a player must pretend to be an AI.

Now, most of the conversations are between the AIs and the hallucinate stuff based on the very small background lore I gave as a prompt. I've been thinking of having a background process that takes all of these conversations through many different games and start building a coherent game lore wiki, automatically.

Basically, letting these interactions build the game lore.

It is quite different from using a repo because code is 1) relatively structured, 2) coherent, 3) and refers to a single instance. In contrast, the corpus of conversations may have conflicting narratives of the game lore which need to be reconciled and there is close to no structure!

Anyway, happy to chat if you think this is an interesting topic for auto-wikis.
I'm dealing with this daily as I build Applin.

Example from Friday: I spend about an hour figuring out why my iOS app was not showing an error response when the server refused an upload. The iOS standard library URLRequest class was not sending the "Expect:100-Continue" HTTP header. I found nothing about this in the docs. I found the answer on Stack Overflow: add the header to the request and the class will automatically use it and wait for the "100 Continue" response before sending the body.

Last week, I spent multiple hours getting UIPickerView to work. The docs omit critical info like how to update the widget. Also, the API design is confusing: one must implement UIPickerViewDataSource but that isn't actually used as the source of the data, only the count of components. To make the picker work, one has to implement UIPickerViewDelegate which provides the actual data. It's a very confusing widget.

Earlier in this project, I wasted multiple weeks struggling, unsuccessfully, to get UITableView and UIStackView to work for my use-case. This took so long because the docs are missing lots of important info.

Shameless plug: Backend engineers can use Applin to build iOS apps, without writing any frontend code and without struggling to understand Apple's poorly-documented buggy APIs. https://www.applin.dev
I was tasked with taking over some of jeffiel’s code bases around the time period we are discussing here. He perfectly skirted the line of telling me what he was thinking while writing stuff and simultaneously staying out of it and letting the people he hired take the reins. He spent most of his time interacting with Cxx and Director level people to set the tone and direction of the company, while still taking the time to know what ICs were doing so that he could usefully answer questions and use our products.
Darwin is not Mac OS X and vice-versa.
I’m not sure there’s necessarily going to be a satisfying general answer to find here though. I can invent an NP-complete problem with very easy instances by combining a linear time problem with an NP-complete problem, e.g. “Does this list of cities have a complete route shorter than X OR is one of the cities New York?”

All of the “yes New York” solutions are easy, but there’s no deep, satisfying reason for that. It’s just a hard problem glued onto an easy problem. For all we know, a lot of NP-hard problems could be like that, and the structure of the easy instances could be essentially unrelated between problems.
Thats straight out of the Henry Kissinger handbook.
The stocks are not sufficient to buy time to get the flows. There are only around 500 SM-6 missiles (long range, suitable to protect large numbers of vessels at various distances, 5mm$ each), and there is only capacity to produce a few hundred for the short to medium term.

The older SM-2s may have more plentiful stocks, but most of them have been deemed too dangerous to use after causing serious damage in test firings, and there are only around 180 modernized versions available, and the missile itself is no longer produced.

Defending against a saturation attack means that the value experiences a step function. Either you have enough missiles to stop most low-tech enemy missiles, and you're going to be largely fine, or you don't, and your entire fleet might sink. It's not something you can afford to. The US Navy is never going to allow stocks to go under what is necessary to stop at least a long-range Chinese attack, and that means at least 600 missiles, which is a serious chunk of what remains.

Boosting production to counter the Houthis is surely something the US will do. It will take 2-3 years to bear fruit. In the meantime, stocks are not sufficient to tank Iran's capability to produce these kinds of missiles.

I think that the most likely outcome is either more shipping companies negotiating terms to transit unharmed, like China's COSCO has all but admitted to have done, or these detours to continue.

I think I can answer for Docker. The first prototype was written in Python, the company was a Python shop. The main reason for a rewrite in Go was to ride the popularity of Go that was growing at the time (2012).

The issue is, that we talk about a potential placebo/nocebo effect, which means you need to make sure to get rid of all ambigiousities.

There is simply no way around hitting Iran. Hard. Take out it's airfields and factories, if it's power player are hit as well, like Soleimani was, it could give the young population a chance to get rid of the old mullahs and regain their freedom. This will benefit in both conflicts and give a very clear sign to China that Taiwan isn't that interesting after all...

It looks like my writing while a pretentious 14 year old that didn't realize how transparent it was I was trying to prove I was smarter than everyone.
Also, how does it "know" which parts are the important parts? Example, from the React repo, we have this:

The key components of React's implementation include:

The reconciler, implemented in …/react-reconciler, which contains the ReactFiberReconciler class and algorithms for recursively diffing virtual DOM trees and scheduling rendering work. The beginWork and completeWork phases drive the reconciliation process.

But the reconciler seems to be an experimental, not core, recent package, not a key one.
U.S. News Makes Money from Some of Its Biggest Critics: Colleges
