FWIW, I supervised in one of the safest industrial environments in the US, and also one with incredibly robust workman comp. The 18-25 year olds I supervised typically just found ever stupider ways to get themselves hurt or accumulate improper- or over-use injuries... Arguably we would just fire them before they got us in trouble, which we didn't, but neither do people in much riskier settings I've heard from ("get these stupid safety railings uninstalled once the inspector is gone, they just waste time and get in the way").

My suspicion is that the better analogy for these things is airbags rather than seatbelts. Because people don't use seatbelts (guards), install something expensive that can't be easily defeated, airbags (sawstops), which are touchy and known to brick the car (saw). Do sawstops, when not engaging, inhibit the function of the saw as badly as airbags inhibit visibility around A pillars?
It saddens me a bit it that there isn't a bigger community around third party Firefox UIs.

I run the ML team at a larger unicorn. I fully agree with this. We are multi & hybrid cloud with global SD Wan and everything on CI/CD. There is still a ton of maintenance, patches, deployments, and updates that require us to manually intervene in our otherwise automated systems.

If OP were to learn sys admin skills, CI/CD, and Terraform, he would be a key candidate for any ML team globally. They’re all going in that direction. We work closely with Google and they coached us in that direction. Sys Admin skills will always be in demand.

Product market fit is a real thing. I'm a typical low end table saw user. You can ignore me at your peril, but many people will have similar values.

I just finished a flooring project that made use of the table saw. My low end $350 saw was perfect for the rip cuts. There isn't another tool that would do it as well, but I might be tempted to try if a low end table saw starts at $500 (which is already way lower than the cheapest SawStop sold today). Do you have data on safety of alternate ways to solve a problem when the obvious solution has been priced out of reach?

As far as what manufacturers promise, I want to see the contract. We been promised "it will be so cheap you won't even notice" so many times that I just assume is marketing bluster from the get go. They will charge what the market will bear and they will exit if there isn't enough profit. Things they said in a committee room are meaningless. The only thing we know for sure is that what has worked so far is about to get banned.

Obviously I don't have time to do all the research you have done. I'm just a typical low end user who is looking at what it will cost me and what options are likely to disappear.
Transit has the same advantage as a back seat of private auto: a big non-windshield to crash into in the event of a crash. seatbelts are pretty great. the proliferation of airbags is the correct comparison.

This isn't a rebuttal, because it's good to want things, and DNSSEC would be better with binding transparency, but the reason you don't have DNSSEC CT isn't that nobody has designed it yet, but rather that Mozilla and Google forced CAs to adopt CTs and refuse to accept certificates without SCTs. No such pressure point exists for force DNS registrars --- which are generally controlled by state entities --- to adopt such a thing.

Form follows function in the best designs. There are two ideas poorly implemented in all browsers that I wish were fixed.

The first is restoring windows/tabs after a restart. This is not just janky when it refreshes all the pages when you focus a tab, but the browser doesn't even remember what workspace it was in and vomits all windows out onto the current workspace.

The second is bookmarks. If you think about it for a while it seems absurd that there is any apparent difference to the user between their history, bookmarks, and currently open tabs.

Both of these could be solved with some kind of hibernation state for a session. I don't want the pages to reload just because I restarted the machine or browser. I don't want to dig through history to find a window I just had open. I don't want to bookmark pages I frequently visit.

This is especially painful on a work machine since these should be very long sessions that can span a year or more. In the real world you have to restart the browser or machine every other week for updates.
This looks like a handy service for anyone evaluating enterprise software. Is there any normalization done on the pricing to account for things like contract duration, number of seats, feature tiers, etc? Or is it just the raw pricing data?

I will say, it’s a lot more than 26 Vietnams in India though, since most decent sized Cities have their own nested level of Chaos going on that likes to ignore the larger state infrastructure and is highly resistant to outside intervention. At least in most areas I’ve seen.

And that is also ignoring the Muslim/hindu/jain/sikh/etc. friction going on within each area too. And the occasional random bombings, mob ‘interactions’, etc.

Money does talk though.

I’ll also say, I’ve never been called an orientalist before - that’s cool. I guess?

This will be lost now in the conversation, but this video by woodworker Stumpy Nubs is worth watching for key context: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxKkuDduYLk

Yes SawStop sued Bosch for patent infringement and won. But they also then immediately offered to allow Bosch to have a license for free to continue distributing in the US. In the safety commission meeting,they also annouced they would not puruse any lawsuits for the key technology still under patent if the rule was passed.

Does this fully address the potential cost issues for beginning woodworkers? No but I very much think the video is worth a watch to make a more nuanced judgement.
Very cool. Back in ancient times, shortly after Kerberos for GSS-API came out I was tasked with achieving interoperability between Hewlett-Packard's GSS-API implementation (based on MIT's) with popular commercial ones (Cygnus? Microsoft?). It was my introduction to subtle art debugging crypto protocols, handy when SSL came along. Implementing to the spec doesn't necessarily mean they'll interoperate. This brings back some memories: https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-devel/doc/appdev/gssapi.ht...

You would be surprised by performance of modern .NET :)

Writing no-alloc is oftentimes done by reducing complexity and not doing "stupid" tricks that work against JIT and CoreLib features.

For databases specifically, .NET might actually be positioned very well with its low-level features (intrisics incl. SIMD, FFI, struct generics though not entirely low-level) and high-throughput GC.

Interesting example of this applied in practice is Garnet[0]/FASTER[1]. Keep in mind that its codebase still has many instances of un-idiomatic C# and you can do way better by further simplification, but it already does the job well enough.

>In most European countries, people will know a tiny bit of broken English at least, and most of the words you can figure out on packages/signs by their roots.

I mean, what do you expect? European languages are all related to each other, so of course it's easier to figure things out by roots. Japanese isn't even remotely related to English, except through borrow-words. That said, I'm usually able to figure a lot of things out by simply reading the katakana, since 95% of the time it's just a borrowed English word. Of course, this depends a lot on what you're looking at: western foods almost always use katakana borrow-words, Asian foods almost never.

Essentialism! That’s a word I never knew existed.

Perceiving old systems that grew up on essential dedicated roles based on biology as sexist is a modern day bias against old eras that needs its own verbiage: time-ism?

Not to go into debate, but my overall outlook is that certain relational contracts are embedded in the formation of relationships. Drifting from those contracts creates a rift. This isn’t essentialism. This is expectationism.
I’m not going to defend Musk. The sooner he is removed from his companies, the better.

However, the Tesla Cars made in China are excellent.

The Tesla model Y is the biggest selling EV in Australia for a reason.

Also, the Tesla Powerwalls are very good, and anecdotally based on discussions with owners of other home batteries, superior to other battery products.

And Starlink actually seems to be pretty decent!
Plenty of people in Australia love their StarLink!

I think bandsaws are much safer than table saws. The band saw naturally forces the work against the work surface instead of towards the user. You should give bandsaws another chance.

If I had a small hobbyist shop I think I would spend extra to get a big bandsaw and make do with a circular saw and a nice track. A circular saw and a router (for dados) can substitute for a table saw. You can't resaw without a bandsaw.

>and therefore not give credence to the claim that SawStop is intentionally designing a poor solution in order to sell more blades

This is the most asinine argument I’ve heard yet, and I am not a fan of this regulation.

Blades are typically cheap and the ones that aren’t are often repairable after an activation. Also, Sawstop barely sells any blades - I don’t know a single woodworker or cabinet shop that runs their blades.
Postal is not very well maintained, I don't think it's a wise choice to use it if alternatives exist.

You're the one making assumptions about my assumptions.

> The apprentice is totally incapable of evaluating the tools he uses.

Apprentices are by definition inexperienced, but for the sake of argument, let's say the apprentice full well knows that the circular saw can take his fingers off if he makes a mistake.

What choice does he have? Unemployment? Complain to the disinterested boss?

> That his boss is disinterested

Some might care deeply about the safety of their employees. Most don't do anything that isn't enforced by law.

Here every constructions site by law must have all staff wear high-vis vests, hearing protection, helmets, steel-toed boots, and so forth.

YouTube is filled with videos of workers in Pakistan using the "safety squint" when welding for eye protection, or using a moist rag as their lung protection.

This is the reality versus abstract bullshit arguments.

> Additional profits aren't used to pay his workers above what the other shops do.

Are you... kidding?

First of all, let's say in this hypothetical perfectly efficient job market, a junior apprentice receives an extra $100 compensation annually because his workplace saved $500 on a circular saw that year and have five employees.

Do you think $100 is a fair price for your fingers?

We can meet up. I'll give you $100 in cash. I get to remove the fingers from one of your hands. You get to choose which hand. Deal?

Alternatively: Before accepting a work placement, do you personally spend several days evaluating the safety of that workplace? Do you check the fire escape? The smoke alarms? The material used for the carpets? Do you then adjust the contract if you find that the work environment is not up to your standards?

No, seriously, have you ever done literally this? If not, why would you expect any young, junior, desperate-for-a-job kid to factor any of this into any decision?

> In most of these places, the "apprentice" owns his own tools

I've never heard of an apprentice bringing their own circular saw (a huge table!) to a workshop. Clearly you've never been anywhere near an industrial workshop yourself.

> They already have a more abstract set of rules that's more comprehensive and compliance is driven by worker complaints and fines.

That's hilarious.

"Sure, you lost your fingers, but you can fill this form out and submit a complaint."

> outlawed child labor once gasoline engines were well developed and prevalent

The movement to outlaw child labour started in the 1870s, but diesel engines weren't invented until 1898 and didn't become commonplace until the 1920s and 30s.

You're just making things up now.
That's research, never used in a real world attack. It's long since patched, and also that's not the WebHID API.
