Summing up the diameters of all planets (except earth) is 380018 km, which is between the range for the lunar distance. The average lunar distance is 384399 km.

https://science.nasa.gov/resource/solar-system-sizes/

The lunar distance from the Wikipedia entry is from center of earth to center of moon, so if we want to be more precise we would need to subtract the radius of both earth (6371 km) and moon (1737 km), in order to find the distance between their surfaces.

So on average we have: distance from surface of earth to the moon = average lunar distance earth radius - lunar radius = 384399 - 6371 - 1737 = 376291 km

Which means that putting all the planets side by side, starting from the surface of the earth, we could fit them but not on an average day, we’d need the moon to be a bit above the average distance :-)

Why is this a big deal? Is it just the equivalence of copying eSIM via QR code or it can actually convert a physical SIM to eSIM in another phone?

Great writeup OP! And good luck on your hacking journey. Just in case you haven't come across this yet, when you find parentheses being filtered/encoded in a payload like alert(1), try alert`1` using backticks. Some great resources if you want to take your JavaScript injection to the next level: Brute Logic's XSS cheat sheet and Gareth Heyes's Javascript for Hackers. Some people roll their eyes at cross-site scripting but it's still very powerful and very widespread (and as plugin-baby pointed out, especially when session cookies aren't flagged as HttpOnly, eek.)
It is just adapting existing laws to esims. Won't be nearly that long.

In the meantime, don't buy esims. Nothing but drawbacks.

Just write a systemd unit. These commands are not any easier to support and are far worse from the purely technical point of view. You'll get:

- startup only when the network is up

- proper logging

- automatic restarts on failure

- optional protection for your ssh keys and other data if there's a breach (refer to `systemd-analyze security`)

Run:

$ systemctl --user edit --full --force rclone-ftp.service

I have only heard good things about EndeavourOS. So far. So do use it. But since I haven't used it at all, I can't recommend it. :)

Also, I was burned by Manjaro which I used for several years, I rather use the Arch Linux directly than EndeavourOS. EndeavourOS is an abstraction which adds possible bugs. But I do think if you're new to the way of Arch, EndeavourOS is a good playground.
Very good stuff. I didn't buy mine on Amazon for that exact reason (I don't like Amazon and I like dealing with the manufacturers directly) so our reasoning is opposite :) I don't trust Amazon reviews and I would not like dealing with Amazon in case of an issue with the machine. Manufacturers tend to have a support track for stuff they sell directly and they don't bother much with customers that bought through Amazon.

As for the enclosure, I'm going to do a whole separate section on enclosures this is more or less a placeholder, I'm still waiting on a sheet of 2C04 Acrylic to use as the window (the transparent piece in there right now is temporary).

Well, not sure what you mean by “totally worth the money”. Their report is quite damning:

https://assets.ctfassets.net/95kuvdv8zn1v/1mb55pLYkkXVn0nXxE...

Especially this quote from the ”Summary of Principal Findings and Conclusions”: “The reasons for Cruise’s failings in this instance are numerous: poor leadership, mistakes in judgment, lack of coordination, an “us versus them” mentality with regulators, and a fundamental misapprehension of Cruise’s obligations of accountability and transparency to the government and the public. Cruise must take decisive steps to address these issues in order to restore trust and credibility.”

Not exactly a warm endorsement.
Not everywhere. The typical practice was to offer steep discounts on phones (or even 'free' phones), where the phone was paid through a high subscription price. However, the high subscription price was maintained after the phone was long paid off. This was ruled illegal in The Netherlands (and many other EU countries I believe), first because it was a loan in disguise (so the providers were bound to do credit checks), secondly because they are not allowed to continue charging the high subscription prices when the phone is already paid off.

As a result, SIM locking does not have any benefit to the providers anymore and they stopped doing that.

That said, I have used eSIMs for years now and there is not much of a real benefit outside dual SIM in phones that only have one physical SIM slot (like iPhone). When first starting a subscription it's faster, because you don't have to wait until the SIM card comes through snail mail. But after that there is always the anxiety after switching to a new phone whether the eSIM transition goes well. With most providers you have to request the eSIM through their app on your new phone, you get a second factor code on your old phone (where the SIM is still active), then an eSIM is installed on the new phone, but only activated after you remove the eSIM from the old phone. Sometimes you get an error in the middle of the process and it's not clear whether the migration is complete or not.

Another issue is that if somehow the screen of your phone is destroyed, it's hard to move the eSIM to a replacement. While with a physical card you just pop it out and put it in your new phone.
Great project! I had to laugh at the very first question I got, though: "Who is the sponsor of the video?"

What do you think the answer is?
Here are the absolutely fundamental things I see many programmers missing.

* Organizational skills. This is like finances for programming. If you do not learn to get good at it then it will own you and limit you no differently than failed personal finances in the real world. Compensating and hoping tools and frameworks will just do it for you are like pay day loans.

* Data structures. Advanced navigation of data structures irrationally scares the shit out of many programmers more so than anything else I have observed.

* Ownership. Developers, and their leadership, must be zip tied to their successes and failures as publicly as their organization allows. This forces people to more carefully consider risks and appropriately apply solutions. It’s the arbiter of maturity. Just own it.
Can anyone actually cite a case of anti-lockin regulations being subverted because someone was using an esim instead of a physical sim? Not saying it doesn't happen but I'd be pretty surprised if a court suddenly said lockin is ok because they added an "e" to the SIM.
I wonder if 2 way satellite comms is just as effective as this old technique. The satellite sends mircowaves over a large area so isn't giving a location away. Tracking would be extremely hard.

> There is some valid reasoning for the law... because you don't want a farmer to purchase 100,000 bad seeds and have his whole yield fail on his farm

That for sure can't be the reason, insurance exists, and the market exists, next year nobody would buy those seeds. Also since there's so many types and farms it's not like whole country production would go to zero for that year.

> Part of the problem is that their safety driver was watching something on their phone and not actually watching out like they were supposed to. If they had actually been paying attention, that would've been avoidable

Safety drivers are a poor solution, it's too easily boring (try watching driving videos for more than 10 min straight), so it's completely Cruise fault.
This is done all the time - just look at the dollar. It used to represent the value of gold, but then the central banks started printing dollars like no tomorrow with no gold for them to represent.

Bitcoin's a publicly auditable (on an opt-in basis) bearer asset that can be digitally transferred orders of magnitudes faster and cheaper than anything like it before, a fundamental that is missed by the OP.
I love that you can breed them!

> Build a product that sells itself

This is such an insane naive take, that it's actually surprising to see it posted here.

We're on a VentureCapital backed message board dedicated to startup, company growth, obsessed with valuations and $$$MONEY$$$, and one of the users thinks this is remotely true.

Companies are not built on technical merit alone. The perfect product and perfect product market fit, with 0 sales or marketing message is going nowhere.

If you have no connection to your customers, your understanding of their pain points will be 0, your relationships with them will be 0, their trust in you as a group of people will be 0.

Are there examples of it? maybe a rapid consumer growth where your 'sales force' is word of mouth among customers, then maybe it can happen, don't bank on your company being able to do that though.

And in B2B it's an entirely different game, no amount of viral word of mouth is going to make decision makers jump to the competition, those switching/churns are won through hard pitches and a coherent product and sales strategy.

What do you mean with undersized?

My standard European bathtub is roughly 140x52 cm on the inside.

That is too short. So either the knees, or the upper body stick out of the water.

Not sure about the width though. What is the average width of an American?
Being wider than half a meter seems unusual.
That is not falsifiable unless you got the key, right?
"Spoofing might involve one country's military sending false Global Positioning System (GPS) signals to an enemy plane or drone to hinder its ability to function, which has a collateral effect on nearby airliners."

reading the comments here, it strikes me that somethings written down look like 'missions' i.e. a statement of the reason the company exists, and others describe a 'vision' i.e. a description of a future state. I wonder if one or the other is more important in your opinions, are both required at all?

To be honest as product manager a tool I have to promote my product before I have engineers build the thing, is a strong vivid vision statement. "in the future our customers will be able to do x [for the first time/faster/cheaper/easier/better]"
I love this!

I wanted to build a “yt-campus” with a curated list of educational youtube channels.

One thing you could consider: allow your community to discuss the video’s. I’ve always wanted to have higher quality discussions about the Engineering videos I watch, and the YouTube comments really disappoint. Would you consider adding that? How about keeping your own personal notes per video?

Many services, including banks, have their users second factor auth tied to phone.

Hopefully the whole esim and namely esim transfer initiative would end phone as second factor.

And yes, I know that options for 2FA are limited in general. But phone is not the best one.
> Moreover, Israel offered hamas a ceasefire if they release all the hostages and exile their top 6 leaders. That offer was rejected by hamas.

That wasn't a serious ceasefire offer, and you've left out the reasons why: it was a pause of 2 months, not a ceasefire offer at all! Furthermore, Israel wouldn't release the hostages they are holding. Why would anyone agree to release the hostages in exchange for nothing but a brief pause of genocide?

Netanyahu knew Hamas wouldn't agree to it; he only even made the offer because he'd turned down the Hamas offer first, and so needed a different story for the media to run with. Which worked just fine of course - MSM ran with "Hamas reject ceasefire" without even mentioning the Hamas offer.

> iOS is clearly competing with android, and the iPad is way closer to android than Windows or even ChromeOS.

Yes, I definitely agree with that. However, you could contrive an argument that ‘since the tablet market is way smaller, it’s less important to regulate it.’

Personally I’m in agreement that the regulation should apply to both markets, though.
I haven't figured out how to get unbound to do this. It's easy to configure dnsmasq to do it, though

I think they are not ordinary words that consume arguments directly from the stack. They also need to look ahead in the input stream of tokens. With support for quoted code, there seems to be no need for any other words operating at the token stream level, like conditionals and def. They just need to consume the stack. I am still digesting this so happy to be corrected.
Business and Management practices rarely evolve to optimise anything other than the rate of output. Vision/Mission/Values can potentially improve the sanity of those involved and at least it stands as a shared ambition and social contract to possibly give employees and public a valid route for criticism (other than share price). I'll celebrate and encourage practical optimisations for people over money alone.
My bet is probably 90% (99%?) of home charging is done at 7.2kW or less. 7.2 kW is in the higher end, not "awfully slow". Myself I often charge at 3.6 kW.
Wow, that was really well stated.

I can only add, that votes for Putin are similarly not simple votes. Centralization and consolidation of power, or product categories, encompassing a myriad of implications, into one, two or three entities, completely derail the meaning of seemingly normal expressions of preference.
Time for Android users to abandon SMS as their 2FA.

(Everyone should stop using SMS for that anyway, btw.)

Best 2FA is a hardware device like YubiKey. I have a handful of YubiKeys, that I use in important places. Tying multiple YubiKeys to an account rather than just one is preferable IMO, because it lessens the risk of being locked out of your account when you lose a YubiKey or it breaks.
Can you really have a noble mission as a defence company or are you effectively a soldier of sorts, paid to execute the aims of the governments you sell to. You are as moral or possible immoral, as those bosses and same for effectiveness. If your customer does something ineffective with your plane or whatever then it ain’t your mission. Your mission is really to provide great equipment to soldiers. Not to protect America. See the sister ship building comment. It is more like that than protecting democracy.
It's a really cool project, thank you for all the work. Is there a list of fabrics it can cut? I guess no synthetics?
The source for that is Gazan eye witnesses, Same one that argues that Israel killed 500 people bombing Al Ahli hospital, that was eventually found out to be from a failed Hamas rocket.

Even if what they claim is true, as you can see from multiple sources, al Shifa hospital still stands and operational.
The article has multiple inaccuracies. It glosses over the fact that many weapons were found inside the hospital (https://www.npr.org/2023/11/15/1213145028/israel-hamas-gaza-...),
It ignores the fact that there was armed Hamas forces fighting Israeli military on hospital grounds (https://edition.cnn.com/videos/world/2023/11/13/hospital-gaz...).
And just plain inaccuracy telling that the solar panels were the only source of electricity for the hospital, since the hospital was operating from the start of the war, up until today, with generators.
Setting aside the nonsense missions, I find it surprisingly useful from a self-determination perspective when working with a strongly motivated team:

- On one hand we say '100Xing investigations'. This is customer centric, focusing on the process they go through.

- Our team & history are deep tech - GPUs, program synthesis & language technology, graph AI, and large-scale visualization. This is not customer centric, but does give us differentiating ingredients for achieving that.

Why this matters is we try to have loose management with declarative assignments. It's one thing for folks to be senior on their craft and know the multiple paths to achieve something... and another for them to know how to make tricky trade-offs that align with the company. The technology investments show where spending a bit of extra time helps under-the-hood, and the customer problem focus is even better for that. Likewise, when someone veers off, it's a lot easier for a peer to gut check. Our early days were too tech-centric in mission, and that led some things astray.

There are other reasons too, such as helping team cultural assignment. Overall, having something good here does simplify a lot. If startups are a team of people navigating their way to a scalable business, getting the mission right is a natural aspect of figuring out what value you are bringing to what customers.
Finally, the mystery is solved. Whenever in your youth you saw a cartoon animal running without moving, this is what they were standing on.

On a more serious note, the tech looks interesting, but unfortunately the article doesn’t explain at all how it works. I think the discs are rotating so as to make you slide back onto the original position?

Found the patent. Will have a read later.
