> If housing affordability is a problem, live somewhere else.

There are a few problems with that statement.

Less expensive homes tend to be in regions that lack jobs. Most of these regions also lack adequate infrastructure for remote work. Many of these regions also lack the resources for people to meaningfully live off the land, never mind the resources and infrastructure to generate income off the land.

This isn't really an example of capitalism. It is extraordinarily rare for people to be compelled to surrender their property to facilitate development. It is far more common for property owners to be denied the right to develop their own property in the manner they wish due to restrictions imposed by the government.

Quite often this isn't even an example of democracy. A group going to city council to lobby against a development is not necessarily representative of the community as a whole. Zoning laws developed fifty years ago don't necessarily represent the interests of people today. Then you have complicating factors. Democratically elected representatives at the provincial and federal level may be pushing for more housing because the population as a whole is pushing for more housing, while city counsellors are opposing development since the people who voted for them oppose development. Who's voice is more important? When everyone is saying: we need more housing, but not in my neighbourhood, how do we decide where housing gets built?

Finally: while some housing is luxury housing, housing is not a luxury item. People should not be denied access to housing due to income. People should not be denied access to housing in a reasonable location due to income. By reasonable location I mean things like reasonable physical access to employment, education, transportation, and material necessities (e.g. food). The environment should also be safe. In other words, that penthouse suite on the waterfront is a luxury item. An apartment within thirty minutes of the shipyards, in a community with a grocer, a school, a low crime rate, and isn't a former toxic waste dump is not luxury housing.
Napster was a little before my time, though I fondly remember torrenting when I was a kid and oddly enough, it was a small time scam that got me into it.

I remember when I was a kid (maybe 13 or 14) I really (and I mean really) wanted to play Grand Theft Auto. My dad picked up a copy of GTA San Andreas for me about a year prior but after seeing the violence and language he forced me to take it back, that put the taste into my mouth and I wanted more.

So I searched for "free video game downloads" and I remember I went to this site that claimed that for just $30, you could "download unlimited video games for free". I begged my parents to let me sign up and pay the $30 until they finally relented and bought it for me.

What it turned out to be was just a tutorial on how to use uTorrent (and they also had an "addon" for unlimited MP3's which taught you how to use Limewire).

I realized pretty quickly I got scammed and I think to date this is the only scam that I've ever fallen for. Kinda worked out though because I learned how to torrent and after a few years I had a basic gaming PC with a hard drive full of games that I had torrented (everything from Crysis to GTA games to every Call of Duty game).

I was also pretty deep into torrenting music right up until Spotify came to the USA (I still remember all the "workarounds" to get Spotify to work in the US before they officially released here, though I didn't try any myself)

Since then Spotify has remained my longest kept subscription and for all it's faults I think Spotify got the solution to music piracy right. With Spotify it was just more convenient to pay them every month then to bother pirating music and uploading it to my iPhone.

> "we have to hold him accountable"

This is the kind of general, anodyne political statement every candidate ever makes. Seriously, if this is the basis we use to overturn cases as evidence of bias, then it would mean every Republican is immune from prosecution from every Democratic DA, and vice versa.

> Notice he said "Trump administration" - that was political opposition, he was suing to oppose Trump's policies. Even in his previous position, he was a political opponent of Trump, and used his office to pursue political goals.

And with this statement you've made the definition of political operative to include everyone in a state government opposed to the policies of the federal government controlled by the opposing party.

So now that you've made everything politics, nothing is politics, and we can get back to the facts at hand.

> Because legal changes should not be retroactive.

There was no legal change, the law was applied as written as it has been to many other individuals.

> If something is currently illegal, it doesn't require a "novel legal theory" to prosecute.

The novelty here is applying new facts to an existing law in a way that hasn't been applied before. That's what people mean when they mean "novel". They don't mean the law is being twisted to fit the facts. They don't mean the law is somehow new or different this time. It's the same as it's always been.

The novelty comes from it being unknown whether or not the facts actually fit the law by virtue of the "theory" being untested in court. This novelty is not unfair to the defendant. It doesn't mean they are being singled out or unfairly targeted for prosecution. It just means the specific facts of the case haven't been tried in this way before, and why should they have been? The facts are unprecedented.

> Novel legal theory is just a way of saying "let's change the way the law is interpreted or enforced". And that's fine, as long as it's only enforced after the change is made public.

No, that's a terrible system. All that means is you can get away with crimes if you are creative enough. You would just have to point to the novelty of the theory, the fact that the law hasn't been applied that way before, and then you'd be free. Then that specific crime would be open season until the bug was patched by legislation, which we all know takes forever. It's like discovering a zero day exploit, advertising it, and then hoping an unspecified patch will fix things at some point in the future. Uh, no that's a recipe for an pwned system, sorry. Novel crimes call for novel applications of the law. Criminals have an asymmetric advantage as it is with the presumption of innocence, there's no reason to give them more of an advantage.
That's a great observation. The very tendon we named after him is just hanging out there.
Kids thrive best in stable environments; I don’t think moving them around a lot in an RV would be healthy or stable. It would be hard for them to form friendships, and be involved in the community.
Started typing almost exactly this comment before checking to see if anyone else had. Absolutely. I guarantee that for any "old hardware" need there's a geek expert selling recovery/compatibility/adaptation hardware. These problems have all been solved, albeit not at a level of "take it into a repair shop" convenience.

Just as a point of general archival best practices: old spinning media are extremely fragile. Your goal should be to image the drive exactly once, before doing anything else. Once that completes, everything amounts to a pure software problem you can solve at your convenience. But insisting on booting that drive repeatedly trying to "recover" it is a good way to break it forever.

Also:

> The internal hard drive uses SCSI with an unusual connector. Adapting it didn't seem straightforward, and we weren't confident the old file system (HFS) would be easy to read from a modern system.

Yeah, that's silly. You can literally mount that drive image on a vanilla linux box.

Nginx is a reverse proxy, it can work as the load balancer, the static asset server, a response caching server, an authorization server, HLS streaming server, etc.

Nginx has a lot of usecases in one package, most larger companies and more technical workplaces, use Nginx or similar alternatives.

Nginx Unit typically is meant for unifying the entire application space of multiple programming languages served by 1 Server (which also acts as a static server)

So serving golang, python, php code and application all under 1 single wsgi/asgi application server called nginx unit and be able to dynamically change its routes with api calls too.

This allows you to have 1 root process in a docker container to control your python fastapi or golang api processes, without needing 1 container for nginx and 1 container for Python/Golang process or a supervisord like init system controlling 2 or more processes inside 1 container

Everything is under nginx unit and nginx unit is being triggered as the main process inside the container.

Moreover it is also much much much more faster in terms of response time than most language dependent application servers like gunicorn/unicorn for python3, etc [1]

> You seem to be confusing being able to reach IPv6 with native IPv6.

I mean, on the one hand, I'm taking AWS at their word. If they wrote subtle lies into their docs, one can hardly be blamed for failing to understand the truth of the situation.

But on the other hand, if

* My VM has its globally-reachable IPv6 address assigned to it

* Can transmit packets to globally-reachable IPv6 hosts using that address

* Can receive unsolicited packets from globally-reachable IPv6 hosts on that address

whatever hairs you're splitting seem to be a distinction without a difference? Based on my professional experience, "wacky SDN stuff" is par for the course in the Public Clown.

Or, to put it another way, the customer of an ISP couldn't care less about how exactly that ISP delivers them globally-reachable IPv6 service, just so long as it behaves exactly like you'd expect globally-reachable IPv6 service to behave. Maybe between the customer's edge router and the Internet the ISP has some wacky tunnel that runs only over IPv4, and breaks IPv6 service if you turn it off... the customer doesn't give any shits, just so long as the IPv6 service works correctly and reliably.

> As of right now 88% of AWS services are IPv4 only...

This to me is an entirely irrelevant statistic. My expectation is that end-user systems aren't going to be IPv6-only for a very, very long time, but are going to nearly all have globally-reachable IPv6 addresses relatively soon.

So, one should (for the foreseeable future) expect global bidirectional reachability for end-user systems on IPv6, and typical NAT "initiated by end-user request" reachability for end-user systems on IPv4.
Some big claims, but I wonder if there are some published repeatable benchmarks

RV life in urban locations has a stigma these days of freeloaders and drug addicts. It works as a hack, but it’s a quick race to the bottom. Well maintained stealth van campers are a much more socially viable way to save on housing costs (and even then they achieve that by being super discreet).

1 bps on a 60 kHz carrier? That is certainly not the maximum possible data rate.

There are AM stations broadcasting at only two or three times that frequency that broadcast voice and music.

Perhaps they meant that it is the most practical for small receivers like watches.

BBC R4 Longwave is at 198 kHz (formerly 200 kHz). The transmitter at Droitwich has been broadcasting voice and music since 1934.

Loss of nearly a full decade of information from early days of Chinese internet
At the beginning of learning to code in 2017 I was living in the Caribbean. I had to get Xcode command line tools installed, <1gb of download. Something trivial to get done in the US. It took me several days of hunting down an internet connection that was fast and stable enough to handle it since most internet in the country was cell based. The solution was a friendly computer repair shop with a decent hardwired connection that let me leave the computer for a few hours to download.

In a place like that there are some sites that just don’t work sometimes because it is clear that the devs have never thought about what happens when a significant portion of your requests fail.

"Think Alert Sound" I see in the dialog box -- is that the "I'm trying to think but nothing happens!" error message alert sound popular on Macs of that era? (We had that sound in the office, and many more.)

> Also, crucially (and I don't know why this is continually glossed over) he did not even bring the case to begin with -- it was brought by Cy Vance. Bragg actually received great flak from Democrats for not acting with more alacrity, which is what you would have expected if he were out to "get" Trump. By the time Bragg was elected it was already before a grad jury. So this whole demonization of Bragg misses the mark entirely.

That's "glossed over" because it's not true. Bragg was elected Manhattan DA in 2021. This case was brought before the grand jury on Jan 30, 2023 and the indictment was approved on March 30, 2023.

As for the rest, this discussion is clearly going nowhere. Bragg declared his intention to fight Trump during the campaign and spent several years trying to find a way. If you don't think that's political bias, I can't convince you.

Edit: Stop wasting my time. You claimed Vance brought the case, then quoted a source proving that was false: "Vance did not seek an indictment". To avoid admitting your mistake, you changed your claim from "brought the case" to "the first grand jury". I don't think you're discussing this in good faith.

"get control" is not accurate.. there is a code execution model on the CPU based on an operating system; the GPU is a different story.

Don’t make the mistake of believing the default settings of WP come from any kind of informed wisdom instead of historical accident. WP was never designed, it was grown, it predates composer and every sensible modern PHP practice, and is still distributed the same way for compatibility reasons. For all its faults tho, WP does let you rearrange its half-dozen or so directories, and is designed to do so.

Bedrock’s layout isn’t radically different from what many multi-user WP setups adopt. WP itself uses constants everywhere to refer to its directories, and as long as you set them, WP will work fine. Plugins that hardwire paths have to be fixed of course, but even the dumbest plugins still tend to use the constants, or are easily edited to do so. (BTW, I recommend cweagans/composer-patches for those plugins you do need to tweak by hand: much more maintainable than forking the plugin locally)
