Ah, my mistake. The intent behind my comment was that in aggregate there are infinitely better ways of spending $11k of government money, whether that went to a worthy social cause or what should be the FAA's primary mission: improving aviation safety. Arbitrary renaming of waypoints for emotional reasons is ridiculous.

A similar situation in Seattle a few years ago, they renamed the "Red Line" branch of their new metro system because people said it was racist. True story. The effort to reprint maps, repaint the trains, etc. cost much, much more than $11k. The system is behind schedule and grossly over budget to the tune of ~$0.5B.

They do something which is "common" in Apple-land (Dash for MacOS does this, a Twitter client did this as well, over and over): They get the same app, add some features, call it v2, launch as a new app and remove v1 from the store.

They don't "give" you the new version. They take away the app you paid "once", and provide you with a version with an expire date. So you have no choice. You either pay them, again, or lose access to the v2 (subscription based) app.

I don't mind paying for good software, I even think Hallide is worth $60. But I won't make the same mistake again. So best of luck Lux! I really wish you all the success. If you treat your customers right this time.
Caddy does (some of) that too actually. It has a live config API and support for clusters and synchronized configs and TLS cert management. It can also get the proxy upstreams dynamically at request-time through various modules. Some of the biggest deployments program/automate Caddy configs using APIs and multi-region infrastructure.

But where Envoy shines, it really shines.
As someone who lives more on the artistic side than the technical, but appreciates both, that’s honestly reassuring to hear.

And for what it’s worth: I think 24fps is partially why people of frankly similar talent and beauty look untouchable on film, but just like some dude on social media. My personal back-filled theory is that it’s something to do with the fact that 24fps creates more gaps for your imagination to fill in with whatever burns inside your personal subconscious — those “missing” frames let you “see” in Russell Crowe or whomever just a little bit more of yourself than is possible in gapless, real-time reality. Sort of like how old photos with lower resolution feel comforting and organic, because they’re cloudy like dreams, unlike the stark reality that can be achieved by modern lenses.

It would also somewhat explain why high FPS works better for things like sports (where most of the awe is that you’re watching real people do these amazing things) and video games (where the awe comes from actually embodying the figure on screen and existing in their full framerate surroundings).

> You have purchase property to construct something on. So high property values works against your own argument.

The basis of construction is that you're converting fewer units into more, on the same piece of property. If a single-family home is a million dollars then you can buy one for a million dollars, build a 50-unit condo tower on the lot at a cost of $180,000/unit, apportion the original million dollars across 50 new units so the cost per unit is $20,000, and you're creating new units at a cost of $200,000/unit while selling into a market where a unit goes for a million dollars.

> I however, only need to entertain how that possibly could be.

But that's only interesting if it's something that might plausibly happen in practice. You can make anything possibly happen given an arbitrary set of unrealistic constraints.

> I don't understand the point of your response to my first comment. Nothing is making sense after that.

You're right, my initial comment wasn't detailed enough to make the point I was trying to make. Let me try again; and just to be certain we're all on the same page, and not to patronise you - MITM here stands for 'Man In The Middle'.

Per your original comment:

> You have to mitm in order to evesdrop on an encrypted channel.

This is correct. The reason for this is important - the evesdropper has to decrypt the traffic, and the only way they can do that (assuming TLS or equivalent) is to get involved in the initial key exchange. If Alice and Bob are trying to communicate, and Eve wants to listen in, Eve has to spoof both Alice- and Bob's connections so that they (unwittingly) each negotiate an encrypted connection with Eve, instead of with each other. Then, Eve is 'in the middle' of the connection - all traffic explicitly travels through an endpoint controlled by Eve. The communication looks like Alice <-> Eve <-> Bob. Alice and Bob think they are communicating with each other, and as you point out, indirectly they are, but there is a Man (or Woman) In The Middle of the channel - Eve. Eve can do whatever she likes with the data - just store it, or modify it in some way. No matter what Eve chooses to do, the topology of the attack is, by definition, a MITM attack.

> If you do nothing but evesdrop, isn't it still mitm?

It depends on the topology of the connection. In the scenario above, then yes. However if Eve is just sniffing unencrypted wifi packets then no, because, again by definition, there is no third party in the middle of the communication channel. Wifi traffic is broadcast and therefore can be logged by anyone nearby without affecting the connection - just as you and I can both listen to the same radio station using different handsets (that's why busy wifi networks suffer congestion and have to use all kinds of tricks to deal with that - if every device is talking at once then the router can't easily pick them apart; they have to find ways to take turns).

In this situation it's more like Alice and Bob shouting at each other across a room, while Eve hides behind a curtain and listens in. Eve doesn't have to do anything to make this happen, apart from showing up - she is not involved in the communication channel in any way.

> If mere evesdropping is still mitm, then as far as I'm concerned any other evesdropping is also mitm.

Hopefully this is clearer now, but no, that's not true. The mechanism by which the evesdropping occurs defines whether or not the attack is a MITM attack. As an aside:

> Then again, I guess a keylogger is evesdropping and not called mitm.

Yes, a keylogger works as a kind of MITM - all communication between the keyboard and the applications travels through a third party of sorts.

Hopefully that's more useful?

No there haven't been. There have been intelligence leaks from military bases where extremely young people are granted access to highly classified materials, and then just take copies of it home with themselves, and then share it wherever they fancy. The idea of preventing leaks is not to then try to surveil every single possible location people could share things - that would also entail, for instance, surveilling all communications of every single journalist. The idea is to prevent people from accessing, copying, and removing information without authorization, in the first place! Once you've failed there, your job is essentially over because you cannot and should not surveil the world. And if somebody did actually want to share things in a secret fashion, end to end encryption is there.

i totally get that position. I used to be in that camp, but in my last 3 jobs at companies of >10mil users, we had to get rid of FKs for other reasons (perf, dist system stuff). I kind of expected bad data corruption issues.... but they just never happened ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Not sure if that was strong cultures of automated testing, or what. So now i no longer think they're worth the tradeoffs.

YMMV with this one, i could see how it might pan out differently in other environments
Your versioning system honestly doesn't sound that bad. If you took the major version out of the picture, you could consider the minor and patch versions to line up with the major and minor versioning scheme of Compatible Versioning (ComVer) [1]. I think if you were to explain your versioning system around ComVer, including the inconveniences which currently come from major version updates of Go modules, it would be quite clear. If Go were to improve upon the major version inconveniences down the road, you could then migrate your major / minor ComVer versions from the minor / patch SemVer versions to the major / minor SemVer versions. Great work, by the way.

I had the same problem. After years of long work hours and debilitating stress as the CTO of a health tech company, I abruptly quit my job and traveled/decompressed for a year - it didn’t solve the problem. I was even more distracted and felt like I had lost my edge.

Through a serendipitous situation, I discovered Vipassana meditation. The 10 days of silence - no phone, no eye contact, no books/distractions - along with the surprisingly simple technique, yielded incredible results for me. Some of the other people meditating with me for 10 days were also tech executives. The tremendous power of mindfulness is something for each individual to experience for themselves.

The 10 day course is free, entirely funded by past students. (Dhamma.org)

I personally recommend staying away from ADHD medications if you don’t have severe attention deficit issues (e.g. inability to have even short conversations).

EDIT: To be a bit more productive about this, I referenced Guerra et al. [1] which shows that cycle commuting seems to be negatively correlated to income in the US and sharply negatively correlated with single vehicle ownership and positively correlated with being male. But this is just commuting and we know that there's more to transportation than just commuting and commuters tend to be more male as a whole anyway.

This is a bit tangential... I recently noticed that a module that is split into packages that have distinct subsets of dependencies will only add transitives to your own go.mod based on the packages that you actually use.

This tripped me up trying to minimize dependencies for a library by splitting it into a separate repo from the rest of the application, but this is totally unnecessary (and annoying to manage).

Go modules are pretty good.

That was equally bad in a different way.
> Sometimes it's justified as keeping the database vanilla, so that it can be swapped out.

I understand if it's a prototype, I have seen developers of even mature products follow this mentality that they want the DB to be portable. It's insane. The reality is that rarely happens and when it does its mostly cause your business is growing. But not knowing (or caring to know) the features your DB offers you and not exploiting it is just laziness.

I lost him on a ski slope

The HN crowd won’t be sympathetic but I most certainly am. It’s not until you get lost skiing that you realize how difficult it might be to meet back up, particularly if you forgot where you parked in the sea of cars. A kid might not know to go wait at the front desk too (which one’s the front desk anyway?) and then you have to worry about exposure.
Well, there are problems with both approaches, with intelligence, cost, and sensing fidelity being major unsolved problems with humanoids. We still don’t know how to make good fingers for example with sensitive skin.

Considering how much the industry has struggled with automation in cars, I just don’t actually think humanoids will work in the home any time soon. A fantasy humanoid that works well would be more useful than a robotic dishwashing appliance, but one of those is something I believe can actually be built in the next decade.

Yet the governments that you love so much supports Gain of Function Research. Which literally caused Covid among other pandemics. And is suspiciously linked to AIDS.

I remember running a lemonaide stand as a kid back in the late 90s with my friend, we were 11-12ish small town in the PNW. We were at the end of his driveway along the main road that went out of town. Noone got abducted or molested; we were just fine and didn't have cellphones. The obsession with not letting kids play or be in the real world is going to come back to bite society hard in 10-20yrs when generation alpha will need to navigate the real world.

Having kids inside gaming and not going outside is going to do more physical damage (childhood diabetes/obesity/metabolic syndrome) when compared to the very unlikely event of a child obduction.

“Tracking” is a scare word. The ability to see where my spouse is, when needed, without having to call or send a text, is a convenience.

Neither of us “cares” one bit where the other is, but it’s frequently useful to know.
