The cost of egress traffic is a very good reason for many organizations to not fully migrate to a cloud provider anytime soon. And since, unlike with storage costs, there doesn't seem to be an actual reason (other than: it makes migrating to competitors cost-prohibitive in a subset of cases), that seems kind of... weird?

Small example: an actual company I do some work for is in the business of delivering creative assets to distributors. This results in an egress of around 180TB per month, which is, on average just, around 500Mb/s.

So, this company currently operates 2 racks in commercial data centers, linked via 10Gb/s Ethernet-over-DWDM, with 2x512Mb/s and 1x1Gb/s Internet uplinks per DC. Each rack has 2 generic-OEM servers with ~64 AMD Zen cores, 1/2TB RAM, ~8TB NVMe and ~100TB SAS RAID6 storage per node.

Just the cost-savings over egress on AWS is enough to justify that setup, including the cost of an engineer to keep it all up and running (even though the effort required for that turns out to be minimal).

So, are cloud providers ignoring a significant market here, or is the markup on their current customers lucrative enough?
Having experienced that, I can confirm that it is traumatic. And it does take a toll on your body.
I didn't downvote it but in-memory compute is crackpot and alternative memory tech is really crackpot. It's not going to happen and it's ridiculous to propose it on the same level as GPUs with more RAM.

It seems we agree on all the important facts. You have an issue with
van der Kolk, but I cannot comment on that, having never read "The
Body Keeps the Score".

Gabor Mate, who I have read, does mention numerous occurrences in his
career as MD where people had told him that making links between
trauma and, for example auto-immune diseases, was "career suicide".
Not sure what you make of that.
My point is that the popular vote is a poor measure of public opinion, because it measures nationwide voter turnout under a system of rules in which Trump has no incentive to maximize his nationwide voter turnout.

If you want evidence of the fact that the majority of people dislike Trump personally, you can just rely on opinion polls for that. Trump has never been above 50% on those polls.

But that’s not the point I’m making above, which is that—putting aside his flaws as a candidate—he is on the popular side of many of his signature issues. For example, he has been vindicated on immigration, with Democrats rushing to the right on immigration recently in response to public opinion.
You mean the heat strip? It likely was turning on, but I have no way to know.

When people ask me why I say that the linux command line is the best dev environment, Awk is one of the tools I often point to. When you know even basic awk, you can do a lot with a little. IDEs actually start to feel clunky.

If you're looking to get into Awk, and you learn well from a lecture style, I put together a talk for Linux Fest Northwest some years ago and recorded it for Youtube: https://youtu.be/E5aQxIdjT0M
I agree with you on all of this. fx is not doing much more for shutdown than what you describe (calling a handler pushed to a stack created during initialization). Instead of implementing this for every app, I just prefer to use a library with great documentation and tests.
I would note that friendship has never been defined by the casual and vapid interactions at the grocery store. My longest lasting friendships have been ones I formed on irc 30 years ago and still go on, despite only rarely speaking face to face.

People who don’t understand something that didn’t exist when they grew up assume it must not be possible. People assume that games crush creativity, that social interaction online is not actually social interaction. These same biases based on “the way we did it” show up in the RTO debate and other areas of society that are being changed with a new mode of interactions.

Human beings are remarkably adaptable, and I don’t think for one second that online interactions are necessarily worse. I do think we are going through a transient period where as a society we adjust, and transient periods are rough. But as we learn to exist with these new modes of living we, as a social whole, will simply adapt how we interact and live, create new social rules about how to best exist with these new tools.

As we did with language, written words, books, newspapers, telegraphs, radio, telephones, television, etc. Every one of these was greeted with fear and disdain, and social disruption as we settled through a period of transformation. This one is no different.

Hand wringing and bans and teeth gnashing will happen, won’t help, and won’t alter the course of a single thing. Better, IMO, to lean into learning how to live with these advances in a healthy way and teach your children that. Banning them from learning the complexities of a new social medium until they’re old enough to get into serious trouble will only hurt your kids.
The last thing my introverted-ass wants to experience is someone assuming that they're making my life better by randomly chatting with me on the street.

I spend all day at work talking with people, being in meetings and having said human contact. Outside of work I prefer to control that contact, hence why I walk around in public with big obvious headphones on.
a.k.a. [Amdahl's Law](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amdahl%27s_law)
Many jurisdictions in the US have safety regulations specifically around steering. In some jurisdictions it's illegal to drive a car on public roads with steering that has no mechanical connection to the steering wheel. Some areas have a minimum steering wheel diameter that's larger than the cybertruck steering wheel's minor diameter. Some areas have laws requiring a minimum (multiple...) number of turns lock-to-lock. Many areas require your steering to be operable in the event of power loss (I'd bet that everyone on or near a road would like that too). DMV's and police agencies sometimes regulate what they independently perceive as safety problems regardless of law, if someone with the means to declare internal policy gets the urge.

And that's for all cars operating on public roads, not just registered, in an area. It might be legal to drive a cybertruck where one lives, but not in a neighboring city or state. Moving fast and ignoring regulations on Tesla's part only works for their customers until regulatory agencies encounter a reason to pay attention.
Disclosure: I run https://webtoapp.design where I convert websites into mobile apps (and help publish them).

Basically, yes, wrap it in a WebView. I'd need to see your mobile website to judge it better, but if it looks like a website, Apple might reject it. Your website really needs to look like an app to have some certainty of getting it through if your app only consists of a WebView.

At webtoapp.design we usually include some native components in the apps. Although they might not add functionality (just replaces some website components), they help get the app published.

I guess you'll have to decide based on your hourly rate whether it's worth it to tinker with some self-built solution or if you are also open to going with a finished product. I don't want this to sound too much like an ad, just expanding on the time save (because often you don't think about all the things in advance):
- If your client decides he wants push notifications: A finished solution should already have support for that
- For Apple, you'll also need to set up your Xcode developer environment and manage all the certificates and provisioning profiles (personally, I found that complicated when I started out). With webtoapp.design we handle all of that automatically (we upload a finished build to your developer account) - not sure if some competitors do that too.
> My takeaway is, the rule was just bad defined

To reflect real life: there is a reason why rules aren't specific and allow for judgement calls. Your clearer rules for instance, allows for manned flying vehicles like helicopters.
I think you missed my point: In 1945, western Europe and Japan were largely in ruins, so they could rebuild with then-modern technology and not be held back by the curse of the installed base.

>How do you figure that?

You're a chief executive of a successful web technology and browser organization, while it looks as though Baker is being removed from the one you previously left.

I have no issue with the Rust facts, just that the context makes it look like you're being petty by further highlighting Baker's failure in a thread about what is effectively her removal, and I thought maybe you didn't realize that and would like to know. If you know and don't care, or disagree, then just disregard me.

>I’m not at Mozilla, not paying myself a seven figure salary, not ever engaging with the Davos set.

Mozilla's a dying organization kept on life support by Google and playing make-believe hero of the free web these days. Certainly tough to get much lower than that.
normal and abnormal are adjectives that attempt to quantify an ill defined distance from an ill defined center of what society considers acceptable.

They do shift a lot with geography and time.
Planes flying over your house are not trespassing because they are far enough up that they are considered to be on public highway. If you hover a helicopter over my house and hang via a rope outside my bedroom window, you are absolutely trespassing even if you have not touched the building or the ground at any point.

And going to logical extremes is always going to lead to absurdity. Let's go in the other direction. A hovercraft doesn't touch the ground, so would a reasonable person also consider that to not be on their property when it's powered on in their front yard?

Ah that's cleaner than my idea. Which was:

Install OBS, add a 'Scene', add a 'Window Capture' to the scene, then right click it (in sources) and transform / scale / crop the scene dimensions.
Then optionally in the 'controls' panel you can start a virtual webcam, then go to Chrome/Brave settings, go to Site & Shield settings, set the default Camera to your virtual one.

Not sure if OBS would solve your Mac issue.

Ourselves and the landlord are dealing with all the issues, bar a complete rewire, and a new bathroom is the next thing on the cards. There isn't enough money in the system to fund the operational costs of housing here. Inflation and regulations have pushed the costs of improvements into the sky - like some new reg coming in saying that ALL new roofs after 202X must have solar panels and gold plating and be made of Vibranium or something, and that means that roofs are simply going to be left to rot.

You say this, and yet there are plenty of people in the comments here defending the worker who died on the job, and the woman interviewed for the story.

Yes, there are a lot of heartless people here who seem to think that capitalism trumps all. And there are some who are so insulated by their privileged bubble that they can't understand the idea that quitting a job can mean financial ruin for a huge number of people.

But I don't see the overwhelming level of awfulness that you see.
Combinatorics are fun.

People who like reading this article would absolutely like Knuth's 4A volume of The Art of Computer Programming.

Which discusses Permutations, Combinations, Partitions, boolean tricks and more.

I'm think every so often someone asks if TAOCP is worth reading. Well, yes. It's like this article but denser and more mathematical.

I dont think TAOCP covers this superpermutaion problem. Maybe as an exercise though? I've only read the main section, not really dived into the exercise problems yet... Which are substantial and cover more obscure subjects.
I wouldn't judge any JS framework like SvelteKit or Next.js on its lacking in the backend. They have a server to handle frontend problems, not solve your backend problems.

Can an ambulance enter the park to save someone in a life threatening emergency?

If many trees fall in a natural disaster, can a tree removing vehicle enter the park?
1. "In the park" shall be construed as meaning below 400ft.

2. "A vehicle" shall include:

2.1 any conveyance with two or more wheels, suitable for transporting one or more adult humans

2.2 any powered flying object, whether or not it is capable of conveying people of whatever size

3. This rule does not apply to the following vehicles:

3.1 Emergency vehicles attending an emergency

3.2 Wheelchairs, when being used by a registered disabled person

I could go on ad nauseam; you simply can't cover all the cases. You have to accept that rules have to be interpreted; and once you accept that, it's clear that simpler rules are better. Ideally, The Golden Rule would be enough: treat others as you would expect to be treated yourself. But a lot of people treat that rule as the specimen example that proves that rules are made to be broken.
Texas levies property taxes now?

In a public park?

> So are cop cars allowed

No, but a thing about rules is that they generally only work if there’s someone who is able and willing to enforce them.
The top tax bracket is more like 50% all in. So I was not quoting the top one with 40%.
Before smart phones came along I walked around reading a book. I carried one in my pocket at all times, and any moment I wasn’t forced to speak to someone I whipped it out and read. With the palm pilot I started reading project Gutenberg books on a device. With the iPhone I switched to kindle books.

It feels a bit wrong to me that CERN needs to basically beg for this kind of investment while we see Elon Musk burn billions of dollars on his twitter acquisition (now known as X).

The mere rebranding probably costed the business billions of dollars.

Hetzner has a limited US presence for VM products but not baremetal/dedicated solutions.
Why is this flagged? You may not agree with Marcus, but this seems like a perfectly appropriate topic of discussion, and not obvious flamebait.
- no noise

Also you don't have to specify rules that are covered by general law. In most states it is illegal anyway, to fly low altitude with helicopters over populated areas for fun.
I wish the article was written in his script writing. And the comments here too.

You can have multiple worktrees per repo. Usually that's the best solution instead of local clones.
If demand drove prices down like that then we’d already have cheap cards available.

Demand puts upward pressure on prices.

Supply is already maxed out and growing as fast as possible.
Isn’t this what makes cloudflare’s R2 a great proposition? No egress costs with very competitive storage and operation pricing.

It’s not as mature as the others, I don’t believe you can use your own encryption key for example, but why would anyone starting out not choose R2? Hopefully they push the market in their direction.
Works for me too. I see a list with bolded links and descriptions and when I view source I see xml starting with an opml tag, instead of html.

But it's kind of the point that the well defined parts such as movement allowed per piece aren't really up for discussion.

Where the contention occurs is on human behaviors. Where the rules for chess are pretty simple (and yes, this does lead to difficult to compute and complex behavior), the motivations that humans follow both individually and as social structures are far more complex and contradictory.
I know but, for example, Google Cloud has a current advantage with their own hardware (TPUs). What is approximately the cost of training something like ChatGPT or Gemini? They have an advantage because they can rely in Azure and Google respectively without paying anything or with subsidised prices. Could a new player compete with them for training for other companies?
We’re talking about egress - traffic leaving the network. Due to traffic patterns and other reasons (Hotel California) ingress is always free, egress is charged.

There is some debate about the status of hosting video when using Cloudflare as a CDN.

These comparisons are for hosts/object store.

Cloudflare R2 has no restrictions on the type of content while not charging for egress.
This is why the tank example is the most interesting one. Because clearly by any standard it is a vehicle in the park, but clearly its function in the park is completely out of scope of what the rule is trying to achieve.
What I often do when I analyze logs is removing timestamps and changing unique identifiers to something more predictable and diff them to see when things started diverting from the norm, because it is often earlier than the usual error/crash. Is there anything that does something like it?
> But you can turn it off without consequence and Permutation City explores the disturbing implications of why thoroughly

Can you turn it off? The entire universe is 100% deterministic and the "stack" of universes in question is based on the same seed data. So if you decide to turn the n+1 simulation off, the same decision will be made in the n-1 universe. The simulation isn't running on some self-replicating automaton like in Permutation City. Of course the universe being 100% deterministic also poses the question if you can "decide" to do anything, since all decisions are already made.
OBS already has a virtual webcam mode, fyi
Remember that I was correcting someone who hyperbolically claimed California “taxes are the highest in the country and take almost 40% of your income” in a thread claiming that taxes were high enough to make California employee-unfriendly. Whether it’s the 2023 or 2024 rate, they were arguing triple the actual rate and very, very, very few employees in the state are paying even that top rate. Even the WSJ editorial board–hardly neutral–clearly state that this only applies to people making over $1M a year (the top 1% starts around $550k, so that’s pretty elite!).

If you want to accuse anyone of shifting goalposts, start with the people trying to portray the concerns of the top .1% as employee issues.
this really depends on where you go to college. I went to a small liberal arts college (not one of the "good" ones), and my profs loved teaching. It was their whole job, they did almost no research (the cs depts research was all "how to teach cs" type research). Seeing how other people experienced undergrad, I couldn't be happier.
R2 works great from my experience, no egress costs are a huge sell.
Hetzner has seen two known cases of people being evicted for bandwidth use, and they were saturating the link 24/7 for several months by syncing an endless amount of footage to archive.
> I disagree a lot on HTML here - it's a pretty fantastic way of describing a render and layout tree,

In the context of the discussion, that would imply that "a render and layout tree" is a good way to describe a UI. That too is subject to serious questions.
That may be true, but according to this: https://www.thecentersquare.com/new_york/article_d37b99d4-18...

NYC most definitely has far longer commute times than this area.

Even in rush hour traffic, 20 minutes implies driving from 1 side of this city to the other, some in NYC are reporting commute times of over an hour.
Yeah, I feel like any measure like this starts as a way to measure a proxy for IQ. But as it becomes a known thing, people train for it and it becomes a measure of conscientiousness (In the big five sense, aka diligent trainers rise to the top).
I got confused too at first.

But it makes sense because the counters get reset each month.

So if you consume "101TB" over a year, distributed as 90TB in January and then 1TB per month... You could get hit pretty hard in January and have free bandwidth for the rest of the year.
The AWS Enterprise Discount Program apparently requires $1M per year spend. 180TB is about $13k on AWS so presumably not enough to be interesting to them. Hopefully someone who works at AWS can share some info.
I don’t think 100% of the claims will hold up over time, but I would not call it crackpot or discredited, by a long shot. Simply acknowledging that childhood trauma has some consistent effects and being 60% right. would be doing better than the American Psychiatric Association, which still hasn’t even added CPTSD to the DSM. They seem intent on pathologizing just about every type of behavior imaginable, but they don’t seem to think childhood trauma is very relevant to mental health.

I'm not buying it. Svelte's template language also has different syntax/semantics from HTML as well - arguably just as much. The JSX parts are character for character the same as HTML as well, except for the class/className distinction (which if you have used Preact it does not have that issue).
