I'm not going to argue that public EV charging is always convenient. It certainly sounds like it isnt where you are.

As the speaker in question here, I wish to reply.

I am formally apologizing for minimizing the question. It was not my intention to be derogatory.

But to formally address your question:

The same issues that affect any FujiNet device, are the exact same which affect any IoT device. The problem sets are one and the same, and are addressed by a combination of disciplined test driven development (which we are now doing), and auditing (which we need people to help with.), as well as leveraging fixes from the upstream vendor framework (ESP-IDF).

Since this issue is very close to your heart, would you like to help address this issue directly? All of the issues that the FujiNet team addresses are a direct result of champions who drive them forward.

Thank you for your time,
Thomas Cherryhomes, Firmware Engineer, The FujiNet Team.
Yes I'm as strong a critic as you'll find but GP's points are some fox news nonsense. The money was siphoned out and given mostly to corporations and homeowners.

Property construction has effectively halted, health services are catastrophically underfunded (search UHL crowding), public transport is less effective than horses and there's a collapse in recruiting for teachers and police because they can make 2-3x in Australia so they do.

As a result of lack of policing, anti-social behaviour is in full swing.

The OP is asking why negativity dominates in more open communities. Um, because you're admitting more diversity? When you don't limit yourself to socializing in a self-selected chatroom or friends group, you hear about the things that matter from a range of people. It's not exactly a secret that there's turmoil.

Does this really have to be so academic? I'm sure there is something scientific to be said about it. But on the other hand, maybe you shouldn't insulate yourself in a world of rainbows and sunshine?
Well, uh, HDHomeRun's gear has been providing easy to use, affordable DVRs for ATSC 3.0 broadcast TV for quite some time. Compact little boxes, apps available for most Smart TVs (and devices), picks up 80 (!) channels at my place, good stuff.

https://www.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/

I love having one of these in my attic where I get the absolute best broadcast TV signal, and it just sends the recordings down to my Debian server. (You can get them with internal hard drives like a normal person might use.) Cost me $200 back during the miserable pandemic days in 2020, $35/year for listings services.

I am deeply skeptical that Roxi or anyone else is going to pull this off better than HDHomeRun has without some sort of unified local storage standard or (ugh) sending broadcast TV up to a cloud service in real time over your Internet connection. "No additional hardware" here can't possibly actually mean "no additional hardware". (ATSC 3.0 does not provide its own return path for interactivity.)

I agree with you on your point on siphoned off funds.

Property development hasn't ground to halt but is insufficient for the ever increasing demand, developers are focusing on improved margins over volumes. A symptoms of their market first approach more than anything else.

Definitely need more investment in housing, public transport and healthcare, some ambition there would be very useful.

More policing won't do anything for social issues, solve the underlying issues, social disengagement, lack of opportunities, nip any new toxic laissez-faire/not my problem culture in the bud.

Neither do the cops, in their defense. And at least the not-cops in this situation aren't paid a salary and empowered by the state to do violence to people in the course of enforcing that law.

As someone who works in emergency services, frankly, "so what?". If you can't tune that out as background noise, you're not going to be able to do your job effectively. Otherwise, what, you have police who can only do their job in ideal circumstances.

Like when I teach EMTs and paramedics, and we cover things like extricating patients from vehicles. "This is great. The vehicle is level, you're in an apparatus bay at a fire station, you have great lighting, no noise, it's not pouring rain..."

More often than not, I see police escalating situations with people of interest and bystanders, rather than the other way around.

I still remember the circus around HQ2 and how so many politicians (most prominently AOC) were dragged in the media and online forums for not bowing down to Amazon and being "anti jobs". Since then Amazon has leased a ton of office space in NYC (including a large chunk of Hudson Yards, which is the priciest new development) and is expanding its presence in the city, all without the $6B+ in subsidies that Virginia and other states/cities across the country promised them. Funny how that works.

That's a really clean implementation. And the shares are used to resolve authorization here [1], right?

Two things that we're solving for at Oso is: making it easier for multiple teams to collaborate on permissions (which we solve by having a declarative language), and solving the list filtering problem (as talked about in the post).

If you don't need either of those two things and are happy with a DIY approach, what you've shared would work great IMO. If you packaged that up as a standalone solution, I could see a lot of people getting value from it!

There are not enough people sharing authz implementations out there, a blog post on this shares approach would be super cool.

I expected this question - the answer as it stands is hell no. And who can blame us for being skeptical.

But as a taxpayer, I’d be very open to those salaries IF government IT was overhauled and run like a competent and agile tech startup, unencumbered by politics and red tape - at least to bootstrap some initital momentum.

Longer term, we need something like a “Tech Corps”, akin to a branch of the military, where new recruits are trained in tech bootcamps, and then deployed to one of the thousands of government departments that require resources for their projects/processes. Ideally, these roles should be viewed as an honorable monastic vocation, not a bureaucratic or political career.
I mean, you could also write "of course whoever has servers closer to the exchange can do HFT better". "Of course companies that invested a lot in having servers closer will reap the advantages."

No, expertise is not the difference. If you're a private person with 100 years experience in trading, you still can't do HFT. You need to be an instutition, have lots of capital to invest in servers, software development maintainance etc. As a private person I think you don't even get access to the API.

"Of course whoever has more capital has advantages in the market"? Of course they do, but I don't think "of course they should".

For this discussion, that funds don't beat the market average over a long term is irrelevant. Why not say "who cares you get more latency than the other bank, if you want money just invest in S&P500 and long term you'll beat them". But you don't apply that to banks against banks, only to banks against Joe. Why?

I noticed that too... the effects didn't look nearly as dramatic from the visuals as the text would make me believe.

The exception was health, that was a much more dramatic correlation than income/etc. It reminds me of a study recently of homelessness in California, and people made a big deal about housing availability and affordability as the prime factor, but seemed to ignore the very notable health correlation in that study.

> I can't see any judge siding with a cop

Then simply you've never hung around a single judge.

I come from a family that had more than its fair share of members that work in law enforcement and first responders. I've hung out with judges at barbecues at their house. The people at these private events are mostly other elected officials and other law enforcement officers. These people are their friends, they've known them for years or decades, hell, quite often grew up together. And yea, while a judge can attempt to be unbiased as possible, human nature always leads people to bias toward those they know and against those they do not.
Also, the visualization doesn't update well when scrolling back and forth; and the grouping is bad -- "bullied" is listed as an adverse condition, but is also shown as a separate grouping; and the way it's displayed for "Seen someone shot with a gun" is backwards, implying that the vast majority have seen that. Too bad, because it otherwise seems like an interesting study.

I ... can actually sympathize with that, even as I don't try to scam people (at least, I don't think I do). It can be infuriating to see others get what they want in a way that's "what??? Why does that work?" It can feel like the real rules are being deliberately concealed from you, and you are just fighting back by using the hacks that you think everyone else is.

I remember having this feeling hit me hard when I read the part of the Richard Feynman book when he calls a woman a selfish wh--- and that results in her adamantly wanting to sleep with him.[1]

If you can shuck the siren's call of the mob, you can sympathize with the incel and MGTOW crowd who felt they weren't taught the right model.

I've kind of taken it on as a life motto: "No cheat codes." If there's something that magically works, it deserves to be exposed so everyone can use it, and also learn why it works. That is, everyone deserves the same hack. Yes, even when it costs my information monopoly.

The problem isn't that women have too high standards for how men treat them. Those standards aren't high enough. The problem is women's standards for everything else are too high: looks, height, money, etc. And women are lowering their other standards for those men.

Women tend to want the single best man they can find. Many men seem to enjoy pursing as many women as they can get and are willing to have casual relationships with women that are less attractive and who they would never commit to. Combine that with online dating where women get to choose from a huge number of men. All the women are pursuing the few most attractive men. Those men have lots of options. Many women are sharing the same top men.

I was almost 30 when I decided to put all my money-flow on paper and discovered that all the savings and spending, compound interested or not, having car problems and being broken for a while, everything up to almost that time meant absolutely nothing for my financial future.

I guess most people just get the signal empirically, so they discover it in real time.

Now, after that time savings started to matter. But must people are completely unable to relate to people that aren't an exact copy of themselves. Even when they once experienced the same thing. And yeah, people tend to get worse on this when they age.

I'm using #4 as an example of the opposite end of the spectrum from day trading in Robinhood - traditionally safe investments with little long term risk as a form of building wealth.

The point that I was trying to get across is that across the people I personally know around my age, I can find examples that run the gamut of financial risk - everything from "leave it in a savings account" to "YOLO on options." Because of this, I don't think it's particularly useful to draw conclusions about what the general population is doing based on anecdata alone.

Not entirely. A hypertable is a postgres table chunked over time. There is the assumption that most data and queries are time-relevant, but also that older data is less relevant than new data.

Indexes are per chunk. So if the query analyzer understands you only touch 2023 it can omit looking at any chunk that is from other years and keep those out of memory. Same with the indexes.
