I suppose we're now entering the era where Nvidia is so big and wealthy that they will join the other kings (e.g. FAANG+) in being acquisition machines. The contemporary regulatory environment may make this an interesting thing to watch. I suspect that they'll (by that I mean most tech companies) have to get these acquisitions done earlier while the companies are even smaller if they are to get past regulators.
The first part of your comment is an extremely vague theoretical that pretty much applies to any piece of software, not Windows in particular. It is not based on any actual evidence that such a thing will happen. You might as well bring up the possibility of a massive solar flare completely wipes out all computers preventing people from running Windows indefinitely, it is also a possibility preventing users from running Windows 10 forever.

The second part isn't based in reality at all. Windows 10 can be installed entirely offline.

Fair enough - I get how with your use case these are issues.

I usually have a lot of files but most of them are single to tens of megs at most, so it works for me and I've never had the sync issues and upload failures you describe despite using it for years.

But my experience with other providers means I don't question your own experience here at all, and maybe others thinking of trying them out should consider which of our use cases more closely matches theirs and proceed with appropriate caution.
Socialism is a big tent, by definition that's only one possible manifestation. Incidentally co-ops are not mutually exclusive with Capitalism (private property + market economy), for the same reason mixed-market economy (as practiced by most liberal democracies) represents not purely one thing or another. Co-ops are nothing new.

People don't want to live like the Amish.

The right to private property + market economy.

I use an ultrasonic sensor and ESPHome to monitor the water level in my sump pit. Depending on what you want out of your septic tank monitoring, this may be a useful option.
I think the best way to compare is trying NuttX and others RTOSes on some supported board (raspberry pi pico, esp32-devkit, stm32f4discovery etc). As rzr said NuttX is easier for people with Linux background, because it is Linux-like. So the way you mount a MMC/SDCard is the same, the way you search for devices using i2ctool is the same, etc.

Almost everyone carries at least one microphone and two cameras on their person at all times, along with a WiFi system that researchers have demonstrated can be used as a wall-penetrating radar capable of pose estimation, heart-rate sensing, and breath sensing.

Monitoring with all these things can be done at low-quality in real-time using the compute attached to those sensors, anything that might be interesting can be automatically passed on to a higher level system.

Smart dust was discussed quite widely until very recently, and as all the parts of that are now basically ready, I think the stuff has actually been made and is currently being actively (but quietly, under NDA) investigated by intelligence agencies both for potential uses and potential countermeasures.

A few years ago, I did a Fermi calculation and my conclusion was that a laser microphone pointing at every window in Greater London would cost about the same as the annual budget of the Met Police.

At 128 kbit/s (e.g. for decent compressed audio), recording all 8 billion humans on Earth for a year (24 hours a day so even while asleep) would require about 4 ZB of storage; current storage prices were around $14/TB in 2022, which would thus cost $56 billion compared to $73.4 billion the US Director of National Intelligence requested for the Fiscal Year 2025 National Intelligence Program.

We don't talk about the information explosion "problem" because there isn't actually a problem: all the data on the internet has to be processed anyway just for people to be able to see it in the first place, and for quite some time now all the data we care about is on the internet anyway.

Just saying "I've got this many CPUs and this much RAM" means nothing if the processor just doesn't support some feature deemed important.

I've got multi-socket, multi-core, many-gig-of-RAM boxes that can't run modern Linux kernels (and thus most modern Linux distros) due to lacking CPU features required these days.
As proven by D, OCaml, F#, Delphi, Ada, C++23 (with modules, VC++/clang 18), it is a matter of toolchain.

What we need is a Rust interpreter, or having something like Cranelift properly integrated, to only depend on LLVM when doing release builds on the CI/CD.

That's really a stretch to equate cancelling products to product EOL. I don't think I need to explain it -- anyone who ever looked at the release cycle of Python, Ubuntu, Django, Node.js etc understands why it is common and makes sense to have a well-defined support timeline.
I do love when rhetorical questions actually have a simple answer. I'll admit I had a similar thought as GP (though I wouldn't have posted that thought as a comment without at least taking a look to verify my assumptions).

Tiny10 and Tiny11 were debloated stand-alone ISO's by a developer who chose some of the most despised default features & apps, and removed them in advance from the install media. Based on media from recent years these are still available, but appear to have been surpassed by the more versatile "Builder" approach where you can do more of a personal selection of extraneous features to retain or eliminate.

So now it's "Tiny11 Builder" which is like a template script you select your features from, and you have to supply your own Windows ISO which you download from Microsoft:

https://github.com/ntdevlabs/tiny11builder

After the process is complete you end up with your own custom Tiny11 ISO, debloated according to the Powershell builder script.

Using your Tiny11 ISO no differently than the original ISO from Microsoft, you can then clean-install that same debloated version on target PC's instead.

Once installed, it does have a smaller resource footprint, but this is Windows 11 so it's never going to be exactly "tiny".

Alternatively, Ameliorated seems to have taken a similar path to Tiny11, also for Windows 10 as well:

> I also don't see what is insulting about making a sincere attempt to help, whether it ends up being helpful or not.

It's the equivalent of people wanting to escort you across a road without getting run over. They don't think you're capable of understanding the risks of crossing a road.

Or giving someone in a wheelchair tips on how to walk normally.

Or your completely tech illiterate grandparent telling you how to write code. (Yes, this has happened to me.)

A lot of people I've dealt with have no interest understanding the problem. They just want to do the easy thing that feels good to them. When what they expect doesn't happen, they feel bad and expect me to make them feel better.

Similarly, this pattern always happens around food. It's not uncommon I can't eat any of the food at a social event. I'm used to that and I'm not bothered by it. But everyone else feels bad for me and decides to tell me so. No matter how much I say I'm fine, they keep apologizing because they feel guilty. Of course, I can't tell them to stop making their feelings my problem.

> How long should hardware be supported? Indefinitely? Should Microsoft still target 286's? Pentium III's?

One obvious cut-off point is support for 64-bit software (the AMD64 ISA). Another is a minimum speed and memory capacity.

People are complaining because, in many cases, these "no longer supported" CPU models are faster than the allowed CPU models, and they accept more than enough RAM.
Repair and modularity tend to go together, especially in the face of bad actors. Otherwise you get this scenario where companies work to intentionally create hardware that is likely to be damaged during repair/replacement efforts. The hardware equivalent of Microsoft intentionally trying to 'integrate' Internet Explorer into Windows.

As for government trust, I think it can almost entirely be explained as a result of the government behaving in an ever more opaque fashion, and constantly lying on top of that. Fool me once, and all that. In the Kennedy era, and all the way up to his assassination it remained extremely high - well above 70%. Since then it's been spiraling downward, to its now pitiful levels where we're at today - about to enter the single digits. [1] It's practically an achievement in itself to be that distrusted. I mean can you imagine a time when somebody could say non-ironically, "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."? Anyhow, I digress. It's just a topic I feel strongly on.

The current trend in psychedelic folk knowledge is away from the good trip/bad trip dichotomy and towards "challenges" or "challenging experiences." IE trips that force you to reckon with some particular fear, past experience, core part of your worldview etc but provide (or demand) an opportunity for growth or fuller self-knowledge through it.

I've found this valuable in that it encourages full & nonjudgmental engagement with the "bad" experiences, focused on gaining something meaningful from them. Though it risks dismissing the potentially harmful effects of these experience. Or even worse, considering people who do have bad trips to be merely too weak or unenlightened to have chosen to avoid the experience.

But anyway I suspect the author is aware of this view, having used the phrase "challenging trips" in almost exactly the same sense.
Partnership can have employees who are not partners.
I have been wondering if you could make it work in Silicon Valley for a small firm. Take 2-10 people that could be founders and give them the alternative of being the Nth partner. They’d need to bring in 1/N of the profit to earn their keep. I think it’s doable.
> Behind every Israeli tech company is a small cadre of unit 8200 grads.

This is of course greatly exaggerated. I know plenty of Israeli startups that never had 8200 grads in them, mine included. I actually think that the role of a specific army unit in creating the environment that fosters these startups is really hyped. It's much more of a cultural thing than some random army unit.
> co-op customers are treated better and receive better service

I’d argue this is because a co-op can attract higher-quality workers for less than a purely profit-minded shareholder-owned business. (Similar to companies with a unique culture.) Generalise the model and you’ll get the co-op equivalent of the 70s-era UAW running roughshod where they can.
I'm sure there are but they can be hard to find. Most of them will be smaller companies with really stellar hiring.

> It was immigrants or the children of immigrants like Oppenheimer, Lawrence, Fermi, von Neumann, etc that ushered the Atomic and Information Age, and it was immigrants like Hinton, le Cunn, Bengio, etc that ushered in the current ML revolution.

You’re not wrong, but America won’t accept it. The middle class has been gutted, and everyone is scrambling over the ruins of it to try to land in the upper class instead of the lower.

People perceive those immigrants as “taking a spot” in the upper class, as if there were a deity determining how many rich people we can have at some inflexible level.

I think people pervasively underestimate the value of education, in literal dollar terms. The US spends a crazy amount just getting someone through high school, much less college and a PhD. I would be pretty okay with a visa process for anyone that has a PhD from a reputable institution (where reputable only means “not a degree farm”).

Having someone with a PhD immigrate here is like their government donating a half million dollars to the US in the form of paying for the immigrants education instead of us. Their home country bears the costs, we reap the benefits. I don’t even really care if they speak English; they’ll learn, or use a translate app, or marry someone that can translate or whatever. They got a PhD, I’m sure they’ll figure it out.

The only real risk is crashing wages, but in a globalized labor market I don’t know if immigration is even relevant. Even if wages did crash, that might be a good thing if the crash wasn’t permanent. Cheap research sounds like the kind of thing that might drive us into new technologies.
How does that interpretation make sense given the other items on that list of apps? It seems more like the motivation is to prevent Startallback breaking than to discourage its use.
> How long should hardware be supported?

IMHO, until there's a good reason to depend on a feature they don't have. For cpus, that's usually an instruction that makes things possible or much more efficient.

286s were obsoleted by the 386's 32-bit and virtual modes.

Pentium III was obsoleted by 64-bit mode, if not some version of SSE.

It looks like the 24H2 release of Windows 11 is going to require SSE 4.2, POPCNT is nice, and I guess they want to depend on it. Seems ok for an instruction that's been in processors for over a decade.

Personally, I don't find the TPM requirement essential, especially since windows seems to work fine without a tpm; whereas I'd bet the builds that rely on POPCNT won't work without it. One could hook the bad instruction exception and backfill with a software implementation to count bits, but I think it's ok to skip.
It's the other way around dude, many of these "digital purchases" were high quality, but pirating doesn't always have this quality.
I do think it has a lot to do with the framework you enter with and how you understand what's happening, which I think is what OP was getting at. My most profound experience was a full depersonalization, which I never even began to consider was a bad thing at all, but maybe for someone else would be filled with panic and anxiety. So it's all dependent on your view, which is probably why Buddhism puts 'right view' (samyak-drishti) as the first of the eight-fold path (although I don't think the ordering really matters, it's just convention).
Perhaps they should switch to first party cookies?
The app-based model is really baked into Django. As we've seen from a bunch of examples, especially recently, it's not too hard to build out a single-file project that serves a simple home page with a brief message. As soon as you want to support a full actual page, and a set of pages, you really have to figure out a well-thought-out plan for how people will expand the project.

If you're still interested in this work, I suggest checking out nanodjango, which was mentioned earlier in this thread. That project is new, but there's a plan from the outset for how people can transition from the single-file based version to a standard Django project. You might also want to check out Andrew Godwin's django-singlefile project. It's meant to support small flask-like projects, where you don't have any intention of expanding out into a standard Django project.

Both of these projects have their own code that takes what's included in the small file and tells Django how to make sense of it. That's much different than the projects that are only trying to make use of what's included in Django itself.

(I'm the author of the Django from first principles series that was submitted here, but I didn't see it on HN until this morning.)

Or in this case, the other way around: how open ISA may affect geopolitics.

RISC-V being free-for-all is a given at this point. But politicians-being-stupid also is. So who knows what they come up with.

Export stops on specific high-perf implementations won't do anything. China would just license from elsewhere, or make their own (which they are perfectly capable of doing).

Not to mention it works both ways: what China contributes to the RISC-V ecosystem, also benefits US interests. Frustrating that with export bans, just creates a lot of hostility for near-0 gain. Read: pointless.

This touches on some potentially sensitive topics but at least some of the success is explained by having a population with, on average, the second highest IQs.
