Perun is joke among military analysts, who are mostly impressed by how much money he has managed to grift from uninformed, but convincingly spun, waffle.
Also GWT apps were pretty slow to load and start, and were very "app"-like as opposed to web-page like at a time when that was not as familiar as it is today. That's how I remember it anyway. And pretty heavy, developer wise, at a time when "update a file on the FTP" was still normal.
> 1. AFAIK no government, even authoritarian ones, coerced a CA to misissue a certificate.

As far as you and i know. Those things are not public. Helps with espionage (see Crypto AG).
Switchblade 300 definitely underperformed and disappointed, many many reports from Ukraine frontline, they preferred using normal Mavic 3 drones instead.

Switchblade 600 is a bit better but still overpriced what civilian market can deliver at a fraction of a cost, in vast numbers, not blocked by various political negotiations etc.
> People say they want that, but when they actually do, it completely flops.

That feature isn't yet exposed to end-users, although the plumbing is in place. So far only on Pixel devices.

There's potential for phones docking to desktops via USB-c, running both Android and Linux/ChromeOS VMs.

This is only worth paying attention to if developers are your final audience. So the products he mentions - Auth0, Twillio, Docker, great, this strategy is applicable. But if it’s something that the API is available but isn’t the product then spending lots of time on DevRel is wasted.

In the medium term, I expect developer focused startups to become less and less funded. Higher interest rates mean the landscape is very different and profitability is much more important much earlier.
I think the most important ingredient for me is a combination of solitude and queuing up some good albums.

isn't firm growth just a symptom of the issue? which i guess the article is describing.

sometimes i feel like the best short-term path forward for a poor country is just to have some kind of heavy handed gov't (like a "benevolent" dictator, hear me out lol) dictate policy and brutally subsidize and consolidate industries. of course you have to magically do this this with minimal fallout from corruption and then somehow make the transition to more of a democratic model.

debatable if this nets out positive in the long run for the average citizen, but it will make your country "rich" (looking at you south korea). US is unique in this regard in that we have these huge firms and can also foster an environment for small/med to make that transition, although it's changing as well.

What do you think litigators do? Their whole job is figuring out how to elicit, marshal, introduce and connect the facts that will prove their case. That’s just what being a trial lawyer is.

The facts are not just out there and whoever happens to have the better facts on their side wins. Litigators have to be able to identify and interrogate relevant facts, prepare witnesses and documents to introduce them, then shape them in a convincing enough way that they can argue the facts and law are on their side.

Hell, even appellate lawyering is really all about the facts in the end. We have legal doctrines and lines of authority for this or that legal proposition, but the letter of the law only receives its full shape in light of the various fact patterns they’ve been tested by. (This, by the way, is where the modern Supreme Court tends to show its cracks. Arguments before the Supreme Court are almost inevitably a step or two removed from the facts of the actual case that the Court is supposed to be adjudicating. Yes, appellate courts and the Supreme Court have to take into account that whatever they rule is going to have precedential effect and other courts will look to their decisions to guide their own work. But it’s striking how often like 7/9 Supremes deflect argument away from the particular facts of the case they agreed to review and focus on hypotheticals and “first principles” (which they don’t even agree on amongst themselves) and so on. Yet they always trumpet that Article III jurisdiction requires there to be a live case or controversy. Which they promptly themselves ignore. Can’t let, you know, actual judging get in the way of one’s shaping of the law!)
I had a similar thought years ago. Recently I built a CNC machine and it was a great blend of hands on, practical building work and software work. The software domain being a new challenge was fun too. It felt great to excercise existing skills in a new domain, to reach a new totally novel goal for me.

Now I barely use it, which does suggest that building it is what I really wanted to do all along and that kind of validates that robotics is probably a hobby I'd enjoy.
Odd that communism pulled that off the moment that it adopted the market reforms documented and explored by western academics (and eastern ones too, to be clear -- just not doctrinaire Marxist and Maoist academics)
the united states stopped investing in them because they're more of a near-peer type weapon.

They are absolutely devastating to columns of tanks. And they help control the "z-axis" the the united states military is dependent on.

Helicopters give you the ability to have air "presence" and keep situations in check with low-peer adversaries. When you start bringing in MANPADS or stingers the game changes.

Oddly enough things like the US Javelin anti tank system and the british NLAW are making tanks relatively obsolete as well.

I suspect attack helicopters with some sort of very small automated phalanx system (directed energy weapon? net launcher?) to destroy drones would be incredibly effective still.

The Apache is still an effective platform for delivering a shit ton of ordnance down range from out of no where and then skidaddling.
Would you prefer to walk without shoes?

Btw, having a garden with growing vegetables and fruits is perfect for reduce resource consumption.
Partitioning is defined so that all, or at least arbitrarily many, of the communication links may be down.

In practice you're absolutely right and one approach to distributed systems is to make partition tolerance less important by having lots of redundant links instead.
Odd that the USSR grew faster in the 1980s than the EU did in the 10s and 20s.
The security flaws in these products were government mandated. I think the negligence case would be quite difficult here and distract from the real responsibility.

Sounds like Singapore.. without the transition to a more democratic model. Living standards there indicate it's been net positive for quite a long time.
Quite good support for the caffeine/theanine interaction in the literature -- I was mainly trying to see if it could improve sleep which is why I didn't take it with caffeine. Would be interesting to do some blinded cognitive test at some point though to get some estimate on how much congitive performance is increased. I need to think about ways to measure that, aside from flashcards. I actually have the website connected to a chess API so that might be a nice test.
If we could limit us to only PostgreSQL we could perhaps do that for new modules. Sadly we have some customers which want to use their own MSSQL database.

Though we'll see what the future holds. PostgreSQL is interesting due to cost and features, and many of the large customers are shifting their POV on how they want to run things, almost doing 180's in some cases.
Yes, but it is cool to hate M$.

Four decades of studies by experienced engineers and a very decent budget to figure out how to store US nuclear waste has resulted in 0 solutions so far. I think we can safely assume that dumping it at sea is not an option.
Kindof softof related - I also "discovered" L-tyrosine effectively cured my Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS). The tl;dr version of that story is I used to take electrolytes for it and switched from the Heed brand regular version to the "extreme" version which didn't do anything for RLS, compared the ingredients and L-Tyrosine was the key. For going on 15 years now I take it daily before bedtime and it is effective 98% of the time. Bottom line is these amino acids deserve more attention and research.
It's not just about deaths. Hundreds of billions in cleanup is a disaster too. Environmental releases too.
The Erdös Number Project
So ... a lighter with a little solar panel, and a battery, which generates sparks like a tiny taser when the lidar detects a suitably proximate cigarette or cigar. But not a finger or hot dog.

No button pushing. No lighter fluid refilling ... ever. The world waited a long time for this.

And obviously it needs a chip to run the lidar, and generate the simultaneous brilliant LED flash and fade, haptic jolt, and accompanying sound effects.

(Can some demo freak please create this? And make it look like a little revolver? But for finger and hot dog safety, you are going to have to harden the virtual memory controller...)
China switched to a market economy 20 years ago, and abandoned the communist economy.
Pretty much exactly why I stopped contributing.

Even as a contributor the API is unusable due to limits.
Specifically, the US considers anyone who is male and "of fighting age" not a civilian - and the "male" part is often optional.

This does somehow still result in a lower ratio of dead civilians than when applying the same definitions to Russia or Israel. This shouldn't be seen as a way to excuse the behavior of the US but rather as a way to recontextualize the actions of the latter two, whether you support or oppose their military operations.
That's the opposite of "natural selection". Invasive species ruin ecosystems.
> Only as much as what I was responding to was an argument.

What you said could be the start of a counterargument to someone that says renderer==browser.

But they never said that. Their argument only depends on replacing the renderer being a sometimes-necessary component of installing your own browser. Talking about replacing the renderer but not the UI is a thought experiment that doesn't counter that.

> Except that is literally not true if a rendering engine is available to you to use.

Only if everyone agrees with your personal definition of browser. Many people don't.

> “Removed” would imply there was ever another rendering engine in use on Chrome for iPhones.

No, it just implies their starting point for making their iOS browser included the chrome codebase.
I implied "low tech" insofar as that ICBMs are not really "autonomous" or a dynamic device.

They're launched, they fly, but at some point close to reaching terminal phase, all they do is fall along a pre-calculated trajectory.

Case in point with regards to Iran, a combination of factors played a role in Israel's response:

They knew the launch locations, times and most likely targets.

Hence were able to move out any valuable assets of targeted bases well ahead of time and, had they wanted to, could have even pre-emptively striked the launchers.

The latter again, requiring combined arms and from what I've seen about military ops, there are so many factors to pay attention to with sometimes such little time windows calculated by mission planners, that I don't see all that going full on autonomously for still some time to come.

Check out this video on the 2017/18 US/ coalition response to the Syrian regime perpetrating gas attacks against civilians: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vnbkmi3Iieo

The nominal number of assets involved, the number of types of naval and aerial assets involved, the highly detailed operation plan with a short window for payload launch resulting in a 2 minute window of said payloads reaching their targets simultaneously: That is such a dynamic and complex situation that the reliability required by each component in such a calculation is high.

That's why all of the humans operating these assets receive years of training.

Autonomous vehicles will have support roles or be optimized for high risk or standard, low-complexity scenarios, but I don't see them making huge strides to replace people in a big way in high-complexity, high-impact ops.
Some Erdös Stories
Right. A remote object. But the point of local first software is the objects are local.

If I edit a note using Apple Notes, I’m not editing a remote object. I’m editing something local - authoritatively local - to my device. The server doesn’t know more than my phone does, and the server doesn’t get to tell my phone that I don’t have permission to edit my own, local stuff.

That’s different from interacting with a remote object as a client. Hence, I don’t see turning a remotely controllable light on and off to be local first software because way more like interacting with a server than it is like Apple notes. The server just happens to be harder to route packets to sometimes.
That's going to happen anyway. We're already locked in. No amount of nuclear we can build can reverse that in time.

We're just adding more risks to the mix. And externalising more issues to the future which is how we got into this crisis to begin with.
I mean, why?
Odd for you to cherry pick two different time periods and regions to compare against. At least comparing china pre/post market liberalization you're not comparing between two countries.
I wondered about how the majority of people belonging to those two groups felt about it.

I am quite surprised that "Indian" is still acceptable in a country as sensitive about vocabulary as the US - its very much a colonial term. Then again "America" is, if named after Vespucci, is named after a slave owner and trader which does not seem to bother anyone (which is odd in an age when other things are being renamed).

I prefer "Native American" because, as British Sri Lankan (lived in both countries) Indian just has a different meaning to me.

> It’s an outsider combining in and saying “no, people can’t call you black” [or “Indian”] that is weirdly controlling and oppressive.

Yes, and we have that problem in the UK too. I find it very amusing that South Asians (particularly those actually in South Asia who are not much subject to western influence) will use phrases about themselves (e.g. "coloured") that would shock westerners.

We are also getting a lot more policing of language in the UK. It is actually quite oppressive, and disadvantages recent immigrants (and people from the wrong background) who do not know the right vocabulary.
I specifically mentioned Microsoft and pointed out that it's mostly gonna be Spring unless in an MS shop. C# wasn't mentioned explicitly because I thought it was clear what was meant.

I don't see why climate change needs "solving" per se, or how it can be "solved." To take your example, there have always been hurricanes. It's not correct to infer there's a human-induced tendency toward destruction that can be reversed by humans, or that yet another hurricane is actually a change to the climate in the first place.
You're behind the times. Write a web app using a framework like Micronaut, Spring Native or Quarkus and you'll get a native Linux EXE out of the build system that starts faster than a C program would (due to pre-initialization).

Not that installing Java is all that hard. apt-get install openjdk is sufficient.

Last week I've seen russian military coming from 'official' TG channels boasting how they dropped grenades on civilians, Donetsk IIRC. Literally civilians driving in their cars or walking on pedestrian crossing with shopping bags, having grenades dropped on them, killing many including women. Sarajevo tactics all over again, just not serbs anymore (although both societies share a lot in common).

Also during beginning of the war there were videos of russian soldiers setting up machine gun posts next to bigger roads and literally gunning every single unsuspecting civilian car that came along... not much better behavior than hamas attack last year. Bucha, civilian mass graves with people having hands tied behind their back with wire and headshot found on territories won back from them.

Shows how depraved that society is that this doesn't even cause any upheaval, instead is something to boast about back home and to whole world. Now do a simple projection for next decades.

I know China is #1 topic for US right now, but China views US rather as a competitor. Russia views whole west and US specifically as existential threat to actively fight against (and it did in asymetric subversion warfare for past 2 decades). Not whole russian population, they don't give a fuck whether whole world burns as long as they can drink vodka into desperate oblivion, but all their rulers and that's all that matters there. Now how to tackle and survive that due to all the resources required from that land I don't know but future in that regard looks bleak.
Oh yea, 100% “unhackable backdoor hacked, no one surprised”

You have no idea about conditions on the ground in the USSR in the 1980s. No meat, no consumer goods, people queued up for everything. The only thing that the regime could produce, besides weapons, were throughly false impressive statistics. Relying on Moscow for its growth figures is like relying on Charles Ponzi to multiply your savings.

There is enough Eastern Europeans here on this forum that this kind of pro-Soviet misinformation won't fly here. We know precisely how things were.
Nope you are wrong. Cats are brought by humans everywhere where they are not native. Humans already destroyed ecosystem by many ways. This was just trying to reducing that harm.
Too bad that European history is filled with former autocrats/dictators who had gotten into power especially on the back of disgruntled small/medium business owners, the Nazis themselves had in their programme at some point the dismantling of big (and Jewish-owned) general stores so that the small store owners could have a chance (that didn't happen once they got into power, they just took over ownership from the Jewish).

One thing that I've always wondered about: Is the CAP theorem really making a non-trivial claim?

If a distributed system is consistent and available, it must return the last written value, and successfully do this all the time. How can it do this if the system is partitioned, and the node receiving the last write was unable to propagate this to other nodes?

The proof described in this website appears to confirm this. Am I missing something?
