> It's completely different to cRypTo though.

Really? Explain how. And please, use the actual definition of cryptocurrency instead of your subjective shill one.

> That deserves some distinction.

It wouldn't deserve to be un-classified as a cryptocurrency if it was the E-gold whitepaper republished by Hal Finney himself. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, besides being popular there is almost nothing unique about the blockchain itself.

1. In the beginning, it's very slow. But just iterate and make your project better and better.

2. Use your README to grab the attention of the user. I have a list of features, videos, etc. at the top.

3. I regularly post on various subreddits, Hacker News, etc. trying to support new Nix users. Sometimes I link to my project as an example of code that may help them. I've done this over a couple of years, so there's now a collection of posts people are finding and driving traffic.

4. My experience was that in the beginning, I had to grind out each star one by one. The project never went "viral". But after a certain growth point, Github will pick it up and start recommending it to others.

5. Reddit and Github are now my biggest sources of traffic.

Hope this helps!
Social media in the late 2000s was basically this. It was before they really figured out how to super-charge the addictiveness. I remember it and it was a lot less toxic.
Pretty much all of the cheeses were invented long before pH meters were. The pH scale itself was invented only in the early 1900’s.

Technology is great for making a large amount of cheese that’s very similar. You don’t need it to make any specific type of cheese that’s over 100 yrs old though, and that’s nearly all of them.
...not only I am being downvoted for asking a simple factual question ("is this how this works, and do I understand the consequences correctly?"), I am also getting obviously incorrect answers.

So, let's consider two scenarios:

1) You make a file retrieval request for a 10 GiB file, the front server resends the request to the a single storage server, the single storage server spends 100 ms to locate the file, starts streaming it to the front server, and it takes 10 minutes to transfer it completely; meanwhile, the front server retranslates the data. So you see a 100 ms delay before the file starts streaming, which takes another 10 minutes to complete.

2) You make a file retrieval request for a 10 GiB file, the front server chunks the request and sends them 10 storage servers, each storage server spends 100 ms to locate their chunk of file, then they start streaming it to the front server, and it takes 1 minutes to transfer each chunk completely; meanwhile, the front server waits for all chunks to arrive, which takes 1 minute 100 ms, then sends their concatenation to you, which takes 10 minutes. So you see a 1 minute 100 ms delay before the file starts streaming, which then takes another 10 minutes to complete.

Obviously, the latency in the second scenario is worse. Or do I miss some important thing which obvious to everyone else in the sibling comments?

But that's a lot like saying that my recipe for muffins isn't reproducible because it doesn't say exactly which batch of which field my flour comes from. I mean, of course you won't get the same muffins, but if your muffins taste just as good it's still a win.

This is like trying to dismiss cigarette/cancer links by pointing out that we have also built more power plants and have more cars and our lifestyles have changed and that must be why we have more lung cancer.

> It depends… Body isn’t in the same “mood” every time. And I space out sessions.

I have to say that physiological randomness of this kind is one of the main "use cases" for structured routines.

Before I lived such a structured life, I also felt like I would enter various activities with a roulette wheel of emotions. Which I found to be a big problem! But these days, and due to my structure, a) my mood is highly stable and predictable and b) on the rare occasions when my mood deviates, I usually have a very good idea of why, e.g. deviations in sleep.

for many autox runs, look for a test & tune day, not a competition event
They had an integrated AD system with centralized control through command centers connected via fiber optical cables. The French had helped them design this system. Their AD was quite extensive with French supplied ROLAND, as well as contemporary Soviet equipment. Their air force had MiG-29, MiG-25, Mirage F-1, all in large numbers. This was not a pushover military by any means, but they were simply outclassed by a USAF operating at its peak.

And when the US was fighting in Vietnam, the Vietnamese arguably had one of the best AD systems that was highly effective. The Soviets spared no expense in supplying (and often manning) their IAD.
The difference is it went better after 2001.

This time, not so much. Now not just engineering jobs, but the whole economy isn't going to do very well for the average Joes (as in, below multi-millionaire level) for a very long time.
A speedometer is accurate to sub-mph. If you are just below the limit, it is helpful to know if you are still creeping up etc. A purely numerical display is either too course or changes too frequently to read.
Many cars already have a slower changing numerical MPH readout inside the meter, so hopeful we can both be happy.

Does anybody have a recommendation for a router which is supported by OpenWrt and has a functioning VDSL2 modem? I know I could get a standalone VDSL2 terminator or use another proprietary VDSL2 router in bridge mode in front of the OpenWrt based one, but that just means that the abandoned / buggy / vulnerable firmware lives one box further in my network.
With the caveat that I haven't done any sessions run by SpeedSF, the description for their AutoX events at Sonoma usually says something like "Show up and drive, we have dedicated course workers, you can expect to have 20-30 runs in a day".

For something run by a group like TrackMasters or GGLC or PCA, then you're definitely correct, you'll have somewhere between five and ten runs depending on how smoothly it goes, you'll work the course for a while, and you should view it as a fun day of hanging out with people who like cars and you'll get to drive a bit.

You're also definitely correct that autocross is a lot of fun and anybody who is interested in driving their car for the joy of it should try it out.
I didn’t say they can’t be recorded. I said pilots concerns should be heard and addressed. Your immediate, inaccurate, and adversarial response is exactly the kind of behavior that undermines trust. Blameless culture is critical to aviation safety so undermining trust undermines safety.

> I would venture to say that most workplaces have security cameras, many with sound recording, that can be accessed at any time by management or building security

In the presence of surveillance equipment you should behave as if this is the case but is it? Can management freely access audio and video recordings of employees? I’d be very surprised if that is the case in a corporate setting and I have never seen anything to suggest that it is. I would absolutely like to have a voice in how recordings of me are used by management. Pilots were smart enough to organize and demand that voice.

Every organization I have ever worked for had strict data retention policies to protect the organization in case of a lawsuit. If there were audio or visual recordings of the workplace they were retained only as long as required by law. I have never seen those recordings myself or heard of them being used in any analysis. Already in this comment section the suggestion has been made to mine these recordings with “AI”. This is the kind of ill conceived problem seeking pilots are right to be afraid of.

For the recordings to be useful pilots need to communicate freely. That means they need to feel safe from retaliation. Without these protections pilots will not communicate freely and the situation may actually be less safe.

What's worse is that people do genuinely advertise products they like, so it's hard to tell if a conversation is astroturfing. I've done the same thing. I see it particularly for video games and software.

Ahhh Backend As A Service. I guess that makes sense. Not something I could see myself ever using, but I suppose I can see how somebody might use it if they don't know how to write and run their own backends or don't have authority to spin one up.

Guess I'm a little lucky in that I can spin up personal backend services just for kicks, and even though DayJob is pretty corporate and locked down, I can still spin up a new backend on my own with not much oversight as long as it doesn't touch certain sensitive things.

Thanks for a brief and clear description - it's surprising how few people can't seem to write one, and how many official corporate sites bury what their service actually does behind 10 pages of marketing fluff and stock photos.

> Pilots trying to hide evidence are free to find another job that isn't as safety critical.

This is an uncharitable and dangerous take. If you are unwilling to listen to their concerns how can you so confidently dismiss them?

Pilots care about safety. They’re on the same planes as the passengers. They have a personal interest in improving safety. Their concerns should be heard and given consideration.

If pilots don’t feel safe communicating they wont, which undermines safety for everyone involved. Creating a disincentive to communicate is dangerous.

I agree we should have more data for the purpose of investigating incidents but the blameless culture must be maintained. If pilots have doubts or concerns about that they need to be addressed.

I don't know anything about power dishwashers, but I despise the long cycle times of modern clothes washers. I recently stayed in an AirBnB with a new washer & dryer, and the washer had a "speed mode" that provided a 30m cycle. I've never seen that on a modern washer and I was blown away that I could clean my clothes in 30 minutes, rather than the 60-90 minutes that my home washer requires on its shortest cycles.
15 years ago, we would somewhat choose whom to be “always online with”. It was more of a selected in-group of people, having similar interests and ideas.

Is this technically permitted behavior under CANSPAM? Seems like a company could just create a new "newsletter / list" for every new marketing email they send.
Social media is nothing like books. It's also nothing like eBooks, Wikipedia, regular discussion forums, telephones, etc. Modern social media has some completely novel characteristics that are responsible for its damaging effects on mental health.

- It's optimized to "maximize engagement," which is code for making it addictive. When anyone says engagement in our industry it's usually a euphemism for addiction.

- It does this by sorting content to present "engaging" content first, which due to how humans' brains are wired tends to be content that is emotionally triggering in some way.

- It's primarily consumed on a device that people carry with you and that has an interface that makes infinite scrolling easy, replicating the basic design of a slot machine.

There were dumb panics about books, but citing those to dismiss concerns over social media is intellectually lazy. They are very, very different things. Books don't watch you while you read them and fine-tune their content in real time to maximize the amount of time you spend reading them.

The war in Ukraine is showing that the West is woefully unprepared for a major conflict. We saw signs of this with NATO air forces running short of PGMs during the Libya intervention.

Shells won't be a problem in a year or so, and worldwide there's enough production to move enough to Ukraine if the political will is there. But Western defense contractors have been starved for so many years that expanding production won't occur rapidly. Look at the backlog for F-16s.

This mindset is more useful in a competitive environment where you want to cycle new information in a faster loop than your opponent.

> I’m curious, what if there is something inherently wrong with having too many superficial connections? What if it’s replacing all deep connections, and part of the reason people are feeling unfulfilled?

Or maybe there's also a problem with social media removing friction. E.g. I want to find out what my old high-school buddy is up to, but instead of meeting up of having a phone call, his updates are pushed to my feed, removing the impetus for real social contact.

Software engineers can be weird people (e.g. hyper-introverted) who are averse to thinking through the impacts of the technology they're building. Then there are entrepreneurs whose search for successful products effectively turns them into psychopaths. These are the people who are architecting our society.
