>we'll need to revert back to pans seasoned the old fashioned way (less convenient, careful washing).

There are plenty of non-nonstick (stick?) options besides cast iron. Most of my cookware is stainless steel (with a thick disk of copper under the pan for thermal inertia) and I've never felt it's an inconvenience or difficult to clean - in fact, its durable nature allows for the use of coarse scrubbers or acid-based cleaning products that would quickly ruin a non-stick pan.
Right, as long as you don’t try to visit less-developed areas outside the city.
You’re proposing eating different foods with different recipes and flavors when you suggest that steaming, grilling, etc are alternatives. If I want to prepare similar food to what I can make in a stainless steel or cast iron pan, but with less fat, a nonstick pan is the best tool. Also since you listed frying in a seasoned cast iron pan in your list of alternatives - that requires use of additional fat. Yes, even if it is fully properly seasoned.

RO has some very easy to maintain, and user install options, which I've done.

( https://www.geappliances.com/ge/water-filtration-systems.htm )

However RO is not water efficient, in the sense that only a fraction of water run over the RO membrane system is filtered, and otherwise inbound water goes on into the drain. You can hear this happening, and it's documented by GE, for example, as how the systems work. That makes me wonder if there are other systems with the characteristic that a higher % of ingested water ends up filtered as well as RO can.

> If I used IPv6 everywhere in my server room outsiders could see the topology of my internal Network. NAT isn't an annoyance on the server side, it's a requirement for security.

You can NAT IPv6, but it really sounds like you're doing security-by-obscurity, which is less than rigorous. If your servers are properly secured you should be able to publish a complete list of your servers and their IPs on your website and not impact your security at all.

Absolutely yes people are. I'm active in weight loss communities to support my own weight loss, and yes we are careful about our fat consumption.

The health difference is large for someone trying to lose weight. A tablespoon of butter isn't that filling, but contains about 150 calories. That's equivalent to a whole pot of non-fat yogurt or two eggs, both of which are more filling and give you more protein.

When making eggs, I try to use about a teaspoon of butter, which still gives some butter flavor, but lets me save more calories for eggs.

It's definitely possible! You could self-host WordPress, then use the Jetpack plugin, which can support premium content options (https://jetpack.com/support/newsletter/paid-newsletters/). You could also do this with WordPress.com (https://wordpress.com/blog/2020/06/04/premium-content-and-pa...)

I'm sure there are even more solutions, or you could roll your own -- WordPress is extremely flexible.

Disclaimer: I work for Automattic. I haven't set up a premium blog before, but it's definitely possible to self-host something very similar to substack.
That's because people are trained into the system.

Genuine question—how are ip4 local networks any easier to administrate with ip4 than ip6? Ip6 seems like it has the same capabilities but without the misery of a constrictive address space and its solution, NAT. Hell, if I could DISABLE ip4 locally on my router it'd only make my life easier.

(The only answer that makes sense here is supporting legacy devices, which will probably be a problem we'll have to deal with for the rest of our lives. Thankfully I don't appear to have any such devices on my network!)
> I have yet to meet an infrastructure engineer or even hear of one who switched to IPv6 on purpose because they thought it was better.

Around 10 years ago the company I worked for used ipv6 to successfully deal with huge number of ephemeral VMs. It was a great solution.

I saw Fly.io using similar approach for their internal networking so I assume they did it bc they thought it was better as well.

So now you have.

This doesn’t make any sense. 5.25-inch floppy disks and no hard disks was not “cutting edge technology” in 1998. It arguably wasn’t even “cutting edge technology” in 1988
This makes exactly zero sense. So my home network appliances have public IPv6 addreases, but everything sent to these addresses is null routed? How does that work? At least with NAT there is a known set of rules regarding how masquerading works, that I can reason about.

WAN will not sent such malformed packets in the first place, unless we are talking of mom and pop ISP.

> I don't want to run a border firewall on my home network

If you're running a NAT, you're already running something much more complex than that.

It's not rocket science for CPE manufacturers to make "outbound connections only" the default. My home router does just that.
How is the sample `calculateETag()` function generating a weak ETag? It looks like it will generate a different hash due to any JSON formatting changes.

It seems like generating a weak ETag would take more effort since you'd need to either ensure consistent ordering and formatting of the JSON, or generate the Etag on the content before converting it to a JSON string.
> I don't want to run a border firewall on my home network, because I am not devops,

Well... too bad? Do you want security or not?

> neither is my mother, who also has a home network, etc.

If your hypothetical non-technical mother just buys a normal off-the-shelf router (+AP+switch+...) then it'll already have a firewall by default. It's not like end-users are expected to design/implement these things themselves.

> are people out there really optimizing their diets at the level of a drizzle/spray of oil or butter

Lots of people do this, and it’s not because they’re somehow ignorant and against all fats. It’s more that people trying to be healthy make small tweaks they can live with that add up. It’s not about being an extremist but just moderating things where you are willing to. Everyone’s metabolism, dietary preferences, and lifestyle is different. If you live an active lifestyle with enough exercise or just have a higher metabolism, then it might make no difference to optimize at that level. But for lots of people it can make a big difference without making them feel like they can’t eat what they want.

Three meals a day prepared without added fat means savings of around 3-500 calories a day depending on how much fat you’re using and your portion sizes. Keep in mind as well that not all calories are equal and calories from protein sources tend to be more filling (compare eating 3 tablespoons of butter versus a chicken breast).

I think you are agreeing with me.

Regarding the expensive part. The actual word in the book ([1], p 174) was "difficult", not expensive, I misremembered.

> The United States Corps of Engineers at the secret Los Alamos Laboratory, consisting of 1,500 scientists, engineering specialists, and precision machinists, solved the problem of spherical shock-wave propagation in 1945 in the Manhattan Project. It was the most difficult task in the entire project, in which highly abstract theoretical physics was turned into a weaponized device. It took twenty thousand test explosions to perfect the technique, and for every test explosion there were probably twenty experimental configurations that were found to be not worth testing.

I am not disputing that implosion is much more efficient than the gun type. Even the Nagasaki bomb had a much higher efficiency than the Hiroshima bomb. In the Hiroshima bomb only 1.4% of the uranium underwent fission. In the Nagasaki bomb, 17% of the plutonium did that, plus an astounding 4% of the unenriched uranium temper.

However, imagine von Neumann did not get involved in the project. There's a good chance it would have taken the team a few more months to solve the implosion puzzle. If such had been the case, Groves and Oppenheimer would have pulled the plug, and focused fully on the uranium design.

Now, fast forward a few more months until the end of WW2, when Oppenheimer and the vast majority of the scientists and engineers at Los Alamos had gone home. Norris Bradburry is the new boss. The US Navy comes and tells him they want to set up Operation Crossroads in the Pacific, in mid 1946, and he needs to provide 3 atomic bombs for that, and maybe a spare or two. What would he do? Tell them that he needs some extra time to work on some potential great alternative design, or reply "Yes, Sir" and go ahead and make, with whatever handful of scientists and engineers he had left, a few replicas of the Little Boy? My guess is that he would have chosen the second option.

In such a scenario, when the Soviets build their own atomic bomb, it is also a gun-type, because that's the working design they steal.

It is perfectly reasonable that the US sees implosion as a game changer (as it was) and perfect the design after the war, but the urgency is down by a factor of 10, as is the scientific manpower. A large number of scientists refused to work on atomic weapons after the end of WW2, now aware of their monstrous effects.

And here we both agree that it's quite plausible that the arms race would between the US and the Soviet Union would have been less intense. It would have taken a few extra years to get to the Ivy King level of technology, and by that point the ICBM precision would have been high enough that radiation implosion thermonuclear weapons would not have been really needed.

Related question: I asked my ISP for IPv6 and they gave me a static assignment like this:

WAN: A:B:C:D::1/126
LAN: A:B:110::/48

I tried to read up on this but am still confused. Why are they giving me WAN and LAN addresses? I thought the whole point of IPv6 is that you give your devices publicly routable IP addresses. If an address is publicly routable, what's "LAN" about it? I haven't been able to find a working configuration for Unifi, though their IPv6 support is like 20% implemented at best.

And no, the LAN subnet isn't in the ULA or link-local space.
