Aside from SPF, DMARC and DKIM, there's the concept of "pre-warming" an IP.

Where you gradually send more and more email throughout a few weeks until you have enough good reputation to send your entire volume. This is the part that's outside of normal configuration and takes more time.

In my particular case I was trying to move a system that sends about 5million legitimate emails per month (notifications for a lot of customers) - off of AWS onto a self hosted solution.

We spend about 2k per month just on sending emails and I thought if I spent a few days on it we could save that money.

Unless your IPs have built a reputation it's not going to work. I could gradually migrate volume, monitor the bounce rate, adjust, etc. But that was more work than I could afford to put into that project. I also couldn't risk getting emails sent to spam while I experimented.

I think T-Mobile trying to buy US cellular suggests they are approaching 5G home internet as a real growth opportunity. The infrastructure rollouts are just far more reasonable tha trying to run wires everywhere.
I got ICLs 16 years ago and my advice is I would think twice about it.

Right after the surgery and ever since I get very bad halos in high contrast environments. I haven't been able to drive at night ever since because the halos from street lamps and headlights obscure a significant portion of my vision making it very dangerous.

In addition I had an eye checkup several years ago and was told I had cataract and would need to keep an eye on it. I tracked down the surgeon who did my operation all those years ago and got a second opinion. He told me my eyes were actually fine, and wrote a letter to the first optometrist explaining what she was seeing and recommended me a different optometrist who he knew had experience with ICLs.

I recently needed glasses to drive again as my vision has gotten slightly worse over time as it does naturally.

On balance I have extremely mixed feelings about it.
So, the statement wasn’t racist? Sure thing bud.

This is a straw man. I obviously didn't mean that I thought you suggested that Google should explicitly tell people to use ad-blockers.

Now tell me how not doing anything to discourage people from blocking YouTube ads supports Google's long term interests. Or tell me how they could discourage people from blocking their ads without "[devaluing] brand and trust."

The release note brought my attention to ARI: https://letsencrypt.org/2023/03/23/improving-resliiency-and-...

Is it just me, or is this a monumentally bad idea? Which is more likely - LE having to revoke certificates, or hacker figures out how to trigger the revocation mechanism? Or Congress passes a bill outlawing encryption that doesn't use a backdoor key, and LE is ordered to revoke hundreds of millions of keys?

Contextual Position Encoding (Cope)
It's $13 million for the federal estate tax exemption, and the top rate for Washington's is 20% of the amount over $9 million (it starts being taxed at $1m). It's a meaningless exemption if your net worth is $1b.

> that’s the basis issue

Basis is the amount paid for the stock. The basis boost happens at death. It has nothing to do with margin debt.

Margin debt isn't free. There are limits to how much one can margin. Etrade margin rates are 12.2%, which is pretty high.

If your stocks drop precipitously, which happens every few years, you're subject to a margin call where the broker will sell your stock for you and you get to pay the tax as well. If there isn't enough stock to cover the debt, the broker will come after your other assets to pay it.

Do you also think it is a travesty to mortgage your house and spend it, too? Do you think you should be income taxed every year on the appreciation in value of your house?

> a deeply unfair system

Anyone can open a robinhood.com account on their phone, buy some AMZN for $100, and margin it. The stock trading system in the US is actually very fair and democratic. It's open to all with a phone and a credit card.

I encourage people with what I've learned about how to invest and improve their lives. A couple have listened and are now doing well, the rest continued making poor choices.

> I’m rich

Then I infer you're not that unhappy about society. The IRS takes donations. If it will make you happy, you can de-rich yourself at any moment by giving it to the IRS. If you look at history, however, confiscating the wealth of the wealthy has never done much of anything to elevate the poor.

Sure, the tiniest kids are on the show because it's funny and adorable but it doesn't really change the general point. I've lived in Tokyo and you see elementary school aged kids 6, 7 years old alone all the damn time. When I was in elementary school I was off on my bike every day. This is normal in much of the world. And there weren't any trackers. And that's actually important, because being on your own without the safety net is what builds confidence.
To be fair to the creators of “half baked” libraries, you’re comparing our work to frameworks with several years head start with the backing of trillion dollar organizations (excluding polars). To have convinced ANYBODY to successfully make the switch is, to me, both somewhat of a miracle and an indication that there is a legitimate market for this work. I think it also dispels the hobby claim

As for your issues with Explorer, perhaps it is not the library, but your knowledge of Elixir that was a little too half baked? ;)
It's pretty hard to beat an LLM for filling in common boilerplate or autocompleting relatively obvious lines of code that can be checked in a second or two, no matter how much experience you have.
The teams went the opposite direction for - a much worse result.
But then this is just parroting, using statistical inferencing, what they "might" have said in their publications (and paraphrasing by countless academic papers, or even worse - since this is probably more likely - random qualified-or-not discourses and ramblings in internet forums), versus any sort of logical thinking, isn't it?

If you have a multistage workflow with concurrent and possibly heterogenous requests that hit all the time you can very easily batch and distribute the workflow among compute resources in "the most natural way possible" easily, without having to resort to grace periods, etc. which introduce latency. I think that would be much harder to accomplish with java.
that’s nothing compared to the average package-lock.json!

is noone going to state the obvious and say that poaching an AI Safety guru is absolutely no technical advantage, I would actually say the opposite, safety slows down development.

Later in the game safety will be important for public perception but it'll be too late, the unimpeded corp with only technical people pushing to AGI will have already won, not saying its OpenAI, but certainly, Anthropic is not closer to AGI by hiring a slowing down force.

They will though be on the good side of the technical crowd that wants safety to be built into the thing.

I guess I should sign this: e/acc
Understanding existing code is in its wheelhouse (provided the infrastructure feeding the existing code to the prompt is working well), but I believe if you examine the totality of work a human programmer is involved in, an LLM is woefully behind in many areas (gathering proper requirements, potentially iterating/pushing back on requirements, architecting a solution on a macro level, other gaps an LLm cannot fill).

I was one of the first to doubt ARI and thoroughly grilled it on the IETF mailing list: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/acme/AeJ3zJKcBF-ZUhQXJ...

Now I'm warming up to it. But I still think I would have done it differently... ARI is essentially a "hint" to clients, but at the same time CAs can provide benefits (e.g. rate limit exemptions) if abiding by ARI windows. It feels weird to have scheduling split between the CA and the client. I would have liked a solution that either keeps the scheduling authority with the client, or transfers it to the CA, rather than straddling both. (I think my ideal scenario would be to have a single endpoint that returns a list of all certificates on the account that should be renewed presently. That way clients just have to poll it and renew any certs on that list. It would be much simpler than what I ended up implementing.)

I am not actually concerned too much with ARI with respect to revocation or hackers or government coercion. Mainly complexity.

Anyway... I could probably talk about the pros and cons of ARI for a while. It is a net good, I think, and it does solve a problem (mostly a problem CAs have, and it kind of puts the burden on clients). I just want the ACME/TLS ecosystem to settle down a little now. :)
It's hit or miss depending on the topic. Marc Andreesson recently made a video about the mental space of AI contains low quality sections, average sections and super-genius sections. Claude Opus seems very well trained on art criticism and psychology. But even if it's not well trained, sometimes putting two things together that way can yield suprising results. An AI like Claude Opus makes this kind of knowledge surfing pleasant and fluid which is what you want when thinking creatively. Even the mistakes can spark insights because you have to ask yourself why you know it's a mistake.

I'd call that reading poorly-supported enough to be incorrect. The report establishes that waypoint names are changed somewhat frequently for reasons that are largely left to mystery, but can include "a basketball player I like died." Additionally, "This is on fire right now" suggests some relevant context beyond "a single reporter sent us a nosy email." So while it may technically be true that the email preceded the name change in the chain of causality, its framing as the principal cause appears to be a narrative built of incomplete information. The linked NYT article also mentions pushback from pilots.

> I can only assume it didn't take the full night

I don't think I ever stated the download took all night. I said I left the computer connected to the Internet overnight, and it cost $$$ when you pay per hour.

During the day, yes it was taking hours. That does not mean it was downloading at some consistent rate for hours. I would start the download, then it would slow, then stall, and I would leave it and come back later to see it timed out. Rinse and repeat until I tried at night time. For some reason you all are trying to explain why this is impossible using math without considering any other factors (downloads can timeout, IE didn't resume downloads, picking up the phone would disconnect the connection, etc).

Did you all never download those 15-30 part warez versions on Photoshop, 3DS Max, etc. back in the day? I'm talking later, e.g. 28.8 modem days. It would take me several days, and in some cases a week, to download all of those parts. Sure, they were much larger. But the download would stop, timeout, pause for long periods. It wasn't simply a math equation: File size, modem capability = x minutes. I did not work on the infra side of Nintendo.com or any warez site as a pre-teen so I can't comment further on their scalability.
Oh I missed the part where they put that DB file on S3 too and sent a link. I thought they were attaching the DB to the email.

Still, I would more readily send people a link to a Gist or playground than a binary DB on S3.
Okay, and if American parents are too afraid to let their children do this, isn't a tracker watch a good thing, because it will open them up to the possibility of letting their kids go out without them?
Give your kid a hurricane whistle on a lanyard. You'll never not know where they are.
Boy scouts can afford to lose kids because there is a group of people who know the place very well and are trained to deal with such a situation. Which is I think not only common but expected.

A tracker can reproduce this experience without the help of an boy scout camp. It is just about how the tracker is used. It can be used for constant, intrusive monitoring, or it can be used for emergencies only. It is just a tool, it also doesn't have to be used 24/7.

Google campuses circa 2016 are the dream for many of them.
Sure.

Both Jamestown and Plymouth colonies started out with communal agriculture, and starved. The Plymouth colony switched to private farms after the first year, and then prospered. The Jamestown colony failed. The San Francisco Summer of Love lasted, well, one summer, and then collapsed. The Seattle CHAZ lasted 6 weeks. The Woodstock commune lasted 3 days, then left the fields completely covered in trash and poo for others to clean up.

Find a commune that has lasted more than a handful of years. The Israeli kibbutzen don't count because they feed themselves from a government subsidy.

But hey, you don't have to listen to me. Communes in the US are perfectly legal (20,000 of them have been tried). You're free to start one with your friends. Please keep us posted how it goes!
Consumer profiles FAQ
I think you touched on the real reason: we separate services now and they all have different databases. We shifted up to the application layer not because of technical reasons but social reasons.
I think it would decrease, but not as much as you'd think.

When most cars are "totaled," the car itself is sold for salvage. If it can be fixed relatively easily, the car will be purchased at a salvage auction, fixed, and resold.

If it can't be easily fixed, the parts that can be salvaged will be resold to other autobody shops.

While the consumer might be "throwing away" the car, the car itself isn't generally being thrown in a landfill until all of the functional parts are reused in some way.
Not sure what fair and square means wrt buying stolen property. In most cases you would lose possession of it, in some cases you’re actually criminally liable.
The talent and even many of the ideas came from NASA and old space, while SpaceX has both inspired and created a generation of it, there was always strong engineering talent in rocket science.

The primary issue for other companies is culture and institutional ability to foster innovation and take risk.

The old space organizations like ULA or Boeing et al and government funded are extremely risk averse and are also optimized for other priorities like having presence in as many states as possible or using old designs/ components to keep jobs funded and so on which limits them.

The new space companies do not have the resources to be as aggressive or fast although they are trying, they do not have free cash flow of SpaceX or extremely wealth and committed sponsor. Blue Origin+Amazon(Kuiper is theirs not BO) have resources but are not fast or aggressive and most likely chance to compete if they can get their culture sorted.

Private rocket companies were not successful businesses before SpaceX for a reason, its success has inspired capital inflows but problems are the same.

---

Astra, Rocket Labs, Relativity and Firefly are the only ones with some track record of orbital launching vehicles, Astra went private at 99% down round for just 11M in March-24 and are probably going to be either acquired or shutdown.

Firefly has no immediate reuse plans. Terran R and Neutron are the realistic contenders for reusable vehicles if successful(big IF) then will have Falcon 9 equivalent competitor commercially available by end of the decade (13 years after Falcon 9 landed regularly in 2017). Starship will be active well before 2030 and be a generation ahead again. SpaceX when Starship launches commercially say in 2025 are at least 20 years ahead of everyone else and currently 10 years ahead with Falcon 9.

The last time space industry had this kind of disparity were the few years after Sputnik and other soviet first launches, to catch up the federal government spent multiple % of GDP and made it the national priority and employed 400,000 people to do it. SpaceX is not Soviet Russia it is a domestic company NASA and Space Force benefits from and Trump/Biden are not Kennedy so that is not going to repeat.

Realistically next 40-50 years will be dominated by SpaceX in both satellites and rocket vehicles, even if they stop innovating soon.
