“Civilization in the Middle Ages” by Norman Cantor is a great place to start.
Don't forget CapRover. I'm just trying it on a new VPS and it just works as expected. I would have tried piku first if I knew about it, because it's even more minimal.
The provided examples don't hold a candle to the termite-gnawing power of the armies of government bureaucrats and lawyers that are the real source of the cost explosion.
Password authentication is still entirely necessary. I don't want to have to setup keys just to ssh into a VM I just setup, as one very minor example.
First time I read about piku. I have no idea why, but the feeling of `git push` to initiate a deployment like piku does always felt magical to me. There's nothing simpler than that.

This is timely for me as well as I just open sourced (yesterday!) a project that is in the same space, but for Kubernetes (https://github.com/pier-oliviert/sequencer).

All of this to say, congrats! It looks great.
You forgot vets and dentists!
Because, while you always _should_ implement the proper escaping, that takes work. Not a large amount of work, but more than zero. In many cases your data doesn't contain commas or tabs, so you can do it the super simple way and get back that time. There are more cases where data is tabless than commaless, so using TSV affords you more opportunities to get this quick and dirty timesave when you need a fast solution.
Tell that to am emu or ostrich, or don't, their claws aren't vestigial.

I would opt for smaller tweaks like an extra rhodopsin folding with longer features so I could see near (like tv remotes) ir. re-enable hibernation. Things some mammals already have would be good starts.
Nope. You know that erectile tissue? Well, it's not just in the penis, it's also in the nose as well. Hence the stuffy nose. It's not allergies, it's the same sort of tissue having the same response.

That "pump" in your nose you may feel just prior to a good sneeze? That's those tissues swelling with blood.
Use on what, that's exactly what I was asking about in my original and subsequent question.
yes, limited to those that work 100%!
This seems like a vague comment that doesn't map to mine in any real way. Could you elaborate a little more on your point?
If we continue to increase carbon emissions, we will destabilize the Earth climate system that human civilization relies upon, and it will come to an end. At that point I suspect that living standards will be quite low indeed. I wouldn't worry though - I suspect your side has already "won" and we are on an unstoppable path of doom as is.
Even just putting an LLM in front of the existing Siri would be a massive improvement but I hope they go even further.

Apple has an advantage with the Siri intents and shortcut integration with apps and they can also just “read” the screen of an app to expose functionality.

I’m not getting my hopes up too much but I’m excited to see what WWDC holds.
Yes I 100% agree and that's why I dont understand why using a software CPU Energy meter makes sense.
I think one of the key ideas here is not just having a personal library – it's about doing focussed research to help conduct whatever military campaign you're going on, and having a librarian to help you do that.

So there, all of your assigned papers in college that had you do research were teaching you the whole time to build the French Empire!
A democracy is not the answer. Democracy is tyranny of the masses and nothing more. Democracy gave us Jim Crow laws.

The answer is tighter regulation and laws, and less kowtowing to corporations and 'evil' countries.
I learned to drive in Seattle, where it's 100% allowed, and then moved east and almost got ticketed my first day in my new city.
Fantastic! I resorted to coloring in the light parts with a permanent marker once another library written in python stopped working to turn the damn things off. Will give this a go.

Note the link to the examples folder is broken. There appears to be no examples folder on the github.
I hear this a lot whenever antitrust is brought up. Do you have concrete examples of how, say, the DMV or Kansas Board of Consumer Welfare costs society more that, say, UnitedHealth's price gouging, Microsoft's SaaS, or Google and Apple's backdoor deals with Apple or Amazon's practices?
It would be interesting to create a version of this that would show how different displacement hull shapes would float.
I was about to post something similar. But you nailed it before I could swing my own hammer, to use a figure of speech.
You can't have a good functional democracy without an educated and rational population, and there are better solutions in the meantime than waiting for that to manifest.
Why don’t we have over-ocean cables to ferry cargo/cargo ships?
Exactly. There's a visibility problem. I've just setup a new VPS with CapRover and never found any mention of piku in the hour I've spent checking for comparisons between "Heroku-style self-hosted PaaS" dokku, CapRover, coolify, and dokploy.

Effect of rake makes it such that only about 5% of players show profit in the long run.
Wasted time compared to what? Not getting the news/posts/whatever? Having someone/something else that do the selection of what "should" be relevant to you and send you from the links to the full text?

HN does a good enough filtering, if you have it on your feed list. Some other aggregators can do the same. And the individual blog owners don't make a lot of posts daily. And more important than that, depending on your feed reader, you may get at most a headline, and then decide to read a bit more, or the full article. And of course, decide what feeds to follow based on their quality or your load/required time to go through it.

All of that is miles away from going to each site, see the already read content, ads, images/js. And we already know the dangers of letting something to do the selection of what we should read instead of us.
> and in insurance? how often does the house lose?

That’s why the house has actuaries and analysts to tell them that their bets in Florida are too highly correlated to each other, and they have risk of bankruptcy. So they leave the state. Similarly, I imagine we’ll see tests of insurance companies’ risk analysis when California has a significant earthquake.
It’s possible to recommend another approach without being rude.
Passwords are not the issue you think they are. Someone compromising a strong password with something like fail2ban isn't more likely than someone finding a 0day that can exploit an sshd setup to only accept keys.
So it works as well for the big head as it does for the little head. Interesting, but somehow I feel I should have figured this was the case.
You are conflating asking a single question to ChatGPT versus AI agents which typically need to interact with an LLM multiple times.

And the 5-10% is on average and gets significantly worse as you expand the context length which is also something you want for an agent.
Also, I forgot to ask specifically which army of government bureaucrats and lawyers? The ones who try to go after the private entities who profit from harming health and environment but outsource costs too greater society?
The edge they have is providing more utility for you dollar, as OP said.

That kind of edge is just having a good or service someone would pay for.
Well look at that! I had searched Google and arm.com for that number. This was definitely it.

I was fascinated by this movement some years ago. They did a great job of understanding what makes "belief" in general so damn interesting. I'm afraid that we'll keep seeing these things pop up (real conspiracy theories) as long as we haven't unmasked the biggest conspiracy theories there are: religions.
Streatham High Road still seems like a grey area that should be considered a high street.

It probably was a road (connecting 2 towns with no houses) when it was first named, but is more of a street (with housing either side) now, and is definitely the primary commercial street in Streatham.

Speaking a different language than your great great great grandfather ("a few generations ago") is not always very impactful, though even this means you can no longer read letters or poetry or novels that they may have written or just loved. You can no longer understand laws that they might have obeyed, understand speeches that influenced them, and so many other things that keep a culture going beyond generations.

However, that pales in comparison to what the transition means, not speaking the same language as your grandparents. You get a huge gulf of distance from relatives who, for the majority of humanity, are some of their most beloved and close relationships.
I once uploaded a giant image to chatGPT, asking to transcribe it, but the request failed, and in the error message there was a reference to some python script related to tesseract stuff. Since then I'm 100% tesserract is used there in some aspect for text recognition.
I very much agree with the premise that economists unduly focus on a few metrics of dubious quality - labor force participation, personal consumption expenditures, market capitalization, wage growth, etc - and overfit them to construct a coherent narrative about the "strength" of the economy and what the experience of living in that economy must be like.

There's a story right now being peddled by all the talking heads that the economy is "great", but consumers keep reporting feeling terrible, so consumers must not understand something.

I think this goes the other way around. Our method for understanding the economy is flawed and is not properly capturing what all consumers know intuitively, things kind of suck, even when you have a job and even when you're still buying things.

We need to start thinking about what information needs to be captured and how it needs to be reported to start making better sense of what's broken and how to fix it.
Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but how does sequencer use git to do deploys, if it's similar to Heroku/dokku/piku? Seems like you're dealing with kubernetes templates and kubectl rather than `git push` to deploy, which would put the project is a completely difference space.
Sounds like an Elton John video.

Most male bodybuilders wear loose shorts (or e.g., track pants) for workouts, the tight trunks being worn on the contest stage.
Me too. Even xkcd helped spread missinformation about the topic ..

I believe that generally speaking, shipping costs typically are considered a relatively small portion of overall costs for any given product - just going off discussions in Box by Levinson, in which he asserts that one of the paradigm shifts enabled by containerization which allows for globalization to emerge as a phenomenon is that container-based shipping drops the cost of shipping to a negligible fraction of the product being shipped.

Another thing to consider is that the cost to the shipping company goes down, which might just mean they get more margin to keep for themselves, if all the companies do that and don’t undercut each other.
Hi Mike- I am very interested in this and doing some work - please email
You scared me for a moment, as I've just setup a new VPS with CapRover and migrated all my projects from heroku. Doesn't look too shady for me, there's a oneliner to disable analytics, it seems enough for me.
Cool! Could it work with WebHID instead?
Insurance spreads unavoidable risks to a larger group so that the brunt can be more easily borne. Gambling creates new risks.

> Abseil, Boost and Folly all provide types which lose some performance to get this back if it's all you need to be "drop-in".

Indeed, Google's initial migration from std::unordered_map to swisstables moved everyone to absl::node_hash_map since it was safer, even though flat_hash_map generally offers better performance.

> after adding fake users Alice, Bob and Carol to your user hash table, when asked for the users back in no particular order you get exactly: Carol, Alice, Bob.

Ow :(

This reminded me of Matt Kulukundis at cppcon talking about migrating away from std::unordered_map, wherein he brought up this point exactly: https://youtu.be/JZE3_0qvrMg?t=740

Matt then goes on to describe how Abseil adds a nondeterministic iteration offset to each hash table to prevent anyone from relying on this moving forward.

It’s more of a testament to a potential beneficial side effect of an already widely used drug for something entirely different.

I (in America) actually exercise 5-6 days a week with regular sauna use afterwards averaging about 2-2.5 hours per total session (20 minutes from sauna). I coincidentally even happen to take long hot baths frequently (3-4 times a week for an hour) as a form of stress relief, relaxation, and it further helps with muscle recovery.

Absolutely none of that helps me to a notable degree with what the specific pill in question does which I also use regularly. In addition, viagra adds an additional say 4 hours per day per pill to my normal weekly routine of increased blood flow that may help reduce risk of dementia when I’m older. That’s a big win in my book if it’s true as it’s something I already do and is additive.
They're addicted to metrics instead of observation. Anything that isn't easily measured is considered to not exist, including how people feel about it.

Now that I think about it, that's literal selection pressure for psychopathy.
Let's not even start on healthcare and PE...
Informal gambling between low tier non gangster class people outside a joint is common amongst the lower class most everywhere and the whole scenario was about minimizing liquid wealth and dealing with cash intensive problems in places where cash is risky.

In the Philippines they even have a pooling system 'paluwagan' like this to make it possible for people to buy big things without a bank account or having to store large sums for large period of time which can be risky there.
I'm willing to use Occam's Razor when it comes to xitter/reddit/tumblr nobodies spouting schizo shit, but media outlets have editors and senior editors, who dictate the agenda of the publication, approve/disapprove what gets published, and most importantly - report directly to the owners.

there is no 'conspiracy' because it is publicly known and easily verifiable that over 50% of mass media is owned by a handful of multinational corporations and oligarchs.

the tunes they all sing are so remarkably similar, it's impossible not to recognize the persistent patterns after you listen for a while.
It's like how the Inuit have 35 words for "snow", or the Swedish have 51 words for "tax evasion". Some cultures have a need for nuances that necessarily gets reflected into the local language, nuances which will be lost when bluntly translating into the one category-level word in English.
It doesn't really work like that, some people have access to more than one high streets and some aren't in walking distance from any high street.

You could probably pull records like alcohol licensing or food hygiene certificates to identify all streets with a certain number of shops, then use Google Street View to refine the criteria. Eg if a street is mostly residential on the ground floor, adding some shops doesn't make it a high street imo.
10.x.x.x has over 24 million addresses. Nobody has that many IoT devices.
Eventually consistent means just that, I guess. But I’m sure their reasoning was a lot more sophisticated or impacted by scale than most. Cool problem.
You can queue with people you already know, and some games do have a 'stay as a team in the next queue' option, but there's no real opportunity to actually get familiar with anyone, let alone a community, and play with them more in the same way that you get with community servers

Mostly the same as today, if that was the only difference?

Same language is a result of cultural similarity much more so than a cause for it. If there is no political or cultural pressure to speak the same language, they relatively quickly diverge.
And HN famously took this approach from Reddit, who do the same thing.
It's hard to even tell what you think you're commenting on here, so I'll be generous and assume you're comparing the libc qsort to the STL's sort algorithm.

The libc qsort is type erased and only works on arrays. So to sort Widgets we note down how big a Widget is and how many there are, then we forget these are Widgets and we provide qsort with just a type erased pointer to the array [of Widgets], the size and count, and we provide a function pointer (we'll need to ensure it's suited for specifically sorting Widgets) to a custom function we wrote which receives a pair of type erased pointers [to Widgets] to decide which comes before the other.

A lot of performance optimisations are left on the table when we do this, and of course because it's type erased it also loses type safety. We can't reliably apply our algorithm to any other collection, and we can't easily re-use the comparison functions either.

The STL's generics mean you preserve type safety and you can use this for any (conforming) collection type, and you can re-use comparisons because those are generic too. Along the way you pick up the performance optimisations that were lost with type erasure.

Better still, all of this is optional. You can perform the type erasure explicitly if, for example, you have a thousand different types and want to emit code to sort them all even if it's a little slower, rather than emit a thousand different sort implementations, if the code size is crucial for example.
> insurance is a service worth paying for as long as the fee is lower than utility you gain from it

Critically, the variable that makes gambling rational is the hedonistic pleasure one derives from it.

Insurance versus gambling seems like a penetrating question, but as you describe, it really is not. The more-germane one is gambling versus drinking or theme parks or mindless television.

Well, if we look at the Statscan economic region that consistently posts the lowest unemployment rate (and where the news regularly reports on the exceptionally high number of job vacancies), only 2,140 immigrants arrived there from 2016-2021 (latest census data). Whereas 1,328,240 immigrants arrived in Canada over the same period.

Is it possible that only 0.16% of immigrants are educated? Well, maybe, but if that's the case it is insignificant enough that it is basically meaningless. Said economic region is home to 0.8% of the population, so immigrants are disproportionately not going there despite the data showing the greater economic need.

Education does not remove the human experience. I expect it is plain hard to be one of almost no immigrants to show up somewhere, even if you come with awareness. You aren't likely to find a familiar culture, or other people going through the same experience, so it can easily become isolating. Immigrant communities beget immigrants because they offer something to immigrants. Life isn't just about work it turns out.

There already are games with anti-cheat on Linux, they're just using (arguably) less effective versions of them.

Valve are financially incentivized to get as many games working as possible, I don't think it makes sense for them to do nothing at all about this. They have a head start now due to the general crappiness of Windows on a handheld but Microsoft's mobile offerings could catch up and given that would have Call of Duty among a lot of other heavy hitters available while Deck wouldn't, that is a problem that Valve would need to solve in order to not get stomped.

I don't know how this could be true. Events are things - nouns which can be backed-up, replicated, stored, queried, rendered, indexed and searched over.
