...and this is why I will never start a successful business.

The initial approach was shipping raw video over a WebSocket. I could not imagine putting something like that together and selling it. When your first computer came with 64KB in your entire machine, some of which you can't use at all and some you can't use without bank switching tricks, it's really really hard to even conceive of that architecture as a possibility. It's a testament to the power of today's hardware that it worked at all.

And yet, it did work, and it served as the basis for a successful product. They presumably made money from it. The inefficiency sounds like it didn't get in the way of developing and iterating on the rest of the product.

I can't do it. Premature optimization may be the root of all evil, but I can't work without having some sense for how much data is involved and how much moving or copying is happening to it. That sense would make me immediately reject that approach. I'd go off over-architecting something else before launching, and somebody would get impatient and want their money back.

So we can't call a rapist a rapist because it upsets conservatives too much?

We can't call a failed businessman what he is? Or correctly point out that he idolizes dictators and Hitler specifically? Or that he is so fucking stupid he said he wanted Hitler's generals even though they were 1) Not very good 2) several tried to assassinate him and 3) fought like middle school girls?

Why do we have to abandon reality? Why do we have to treat conservatives with kid gloves?

No, it's the failure to do anything about it.

Americans got robbed of something between 20-40% of the purchasing power of their dollar depending on what they're buying. People aren't stupid, they know they're getting hoodwinked when someone focuses on the fact that the rate of robbery is slowing down rather then the fact that they didn't stop the robbery in the first place.
Pulumi is very neat with straight AWS, too. I suspect this is the primary use case.
Red States are the biggest leaches off the federal government. Out of the top-10 states that take in more subsidies than they pay out in taxes, only 2 are blue states, 8 are red states! The Red States never learn because the social welfare programs from the Democrats coddle them ...

Oh, and the speech by Scholz was just taken from a drawer, so it has been written for quite some time. So overall this is just shady: Lidner wanted structured new elections but now Scholz forced this to be some shit show.
Also the 4 points mentioned by Scholz are mostly shit:

1. Subventions for VW/other car manufactures: good to secure jobs, but eventually against strengthen of the German economy because we keep failed shot living for some time that is also doomed to fail

2. Energy price, how will he do it without screwing over private households?

3. Pensions: Yeah, the proposed pension packet would screw over newer generations tremendously, just to secure some votes from old people

4. More money for the Ukraine. Use that money to invest in to European Level defense
I suppose a democracy could elect a leader that promises to destroy it (hypothetically). The voters have no obligation to protect it.
See this is the kind of thing that's not helpful.

It's just an outlandish overly optimistic mishmash of different concepts.

Let's start with your analogy:

> Imagine if a round-trip flight from the US to Europe didn’t cost $500, but only $5, unbelievable, right?

If you mean to use this to explain that what today costs X will in the future cost 0.01X, you're probably right.

But a more accurate analogy is "Imagine if a round-trip flight from the US to Europe didn't cost $50,000,000, but only $500,000, unbelievable, right?"

Same ratios, but deeply different implications.

Today, the idea of setting up a continuously settled Mars colony - hell even a Moon colony - is unfeasibly expensive. It's ACHIEVABLE - we have the technology and the money - but it would cost an intolerable percentage of the GDP of the world to accomplish.

A 100x reduction in costs means that it becomes a fundable endeavour that countries like the US could still justify.

We're still talking about generations - maybe a century - away from someone being able to just pop over to Mars for a summer vacation, the way that a college student could to do today with an intercontinental flight.

> Many things we see in sci-fi, like lunar and Martian cities or orbital cruise ships, could soon become reality.

For a very generous definition of soon and for a highly implausible definition of what a "cruise ship" is - it'll never be as accessible to the average person as earth cruise ships. Not as long as you keep using rockets.

Regardless of reusability, there are realities of fixed FOSSIL FUEL costs associated with getting into gravity. They're not cheap, and they're not frivolous. If you want to be able get things into orbit as cheap as you're suggesting, you need to start investing in a space elevator, which noone is right now.

> Personally, I can’t wait to see a massive, kilometer-wide telescope in space

Cool, yeah, that's true, that becomes more available.

> or nestled in a crater on the Moon.

..why?

> We might finally figure out dark matter, dark energy, anti-gravity.

And the final cherry on the cake. Humanity becoming inter-planetary is important on a macro scale. And trying to go further and further into space will INCENTIVISE research into these concepts.

But in no way does getting to orbit cheaper make it easier to figure out any of these concepts. There's nothing we can do from Mars or on the way to Mars in terms of this science that we can't do from Earth.
He would need to change the US constitution to do that.
What did he say that was wrong?
> But Saturn V's purpose was not getting things to orbit.

The way rocket staging works - each stage delivers the next stage to a predefined orbit / trajectory or energy level. It is not Saturn V that went to the moon, it just lofted a payload (final stage) into orbit that could perform a TLI.

This was the final stage of the Saturn V rocket for TLI (123,000 kg):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-IVB

In orbit refuelling with StarShip is a major innovation, meaning that we don't need to separate payloads into parts and assemble them on orbit. Instead we can refuel a reusable boost stage.
I've looked into Kamal but it feels so "It's as complex as Kubernetes but isn't so support is going to be nightmarish."

Why is this better then Ansible + Docker Compose?
As a german imo the real problem is that we replaced reasoning with ideology.

There are sometimes complex connections between cause and effect. It is not enough to just have the right intention.
For some reason this just sounds depressing.

Imagine bonding over gruel, because everyone else is eating it and you can’t connect with them unless you are able to discuss the consistency and mouthfeel of the gruel.
Another thing to keep in mind is that having AI/ML surrogates which can evaluate expensive functions faster can also be integrated as an information source in model predictive control algorithms.
Highly educated ≠ intelligent.

You can be quite highly educated and still sit inside an ideological bubble and have no clue that anything is wrong... until it is.

"Heavily blue" is definitely an ideological bubble, because, as it turns out, and this may shock you (!!!), no political party has a monopoly on truths. There are bad things about Kamala and good things about Trump that you would literally never encounter if you only read "blue media". If you only read blue media, you will also consume a lot of BS (good things that are untrue about Kamala and bad things that are untrue about Trump). Same is true about red media, except with the poles reversed.

And echo chambers just reinforce all this BS.

Intelligent people question the sacred cows, and the most intelligent question the most sacred cows. James Damore was intelligent, wrote an intelligent paper, and instead of engaging with him and his ideas, he got eviscerated. And that was at Google, a supposedly "highly educated" place.

If you just can't say certain things, you are in an oppressive society, or sub-society, end of story.

I got eviscerated on Facebook 2 days ago merely for saying "so I investigated this claim that Trump is fascist, found the attributes of fascism, tried to rate him along those attributes, and he got a C (where F is Fascist)" (for comparison, Kamala got a B somehow, Putin an F, H__ler an F of course). Were there actual counterarguments to it? Nope. Someone asked for evidence, and I cited 3 links with a total of 20+ experts in them who on average said "no, not fascist enough to be labeled it". Then they attacked me for using ChatGPT to help put it all together (genetic fallacy). They kept attacking me and not my analysis. One was a fairly smart individual, but in this case he did not use it.

Since they were mainly attacking ChatGPT at that point, I asked ChatGPT to eviscerate every one of their arguments, defending us both and speaking as itself, which it did, with aplomb, and was amazing.

Didn’t Apple famously refuse the FBI’s request to unlock the San Bernardino’s attacker’s iPhone. FBI ended up hiring an Australian company which used a Mozilla bug that allows unlimited password guesses without the phone wiping.

They're very funny indeed. I doubt they are AI-generated, they would the best AI images I've ever seen. If they are, there must be a lot of post-processing.

Oh very interesting, as for me it is the complete opposite: I grew up only knowing real truffle and am now in a position where the fake stuff is just too intense for me, which is kinda sad as some "higher class" restaurants happily combine the two, to get you the look (eg by grating in front of you) and the taste (via some oil in the sauce)

I'd be very grateful if they started labelling it accordingly as they do it with other synthetic flavours (eg strawberry, GER)
There are real, significant between Weimar, Italy 10 years before and the USA today.

However the explanation for the rise of Hitler you allude to is woefully incomplete. Hitler and his party didn't get into power by winning the majory popular vote. Instead the Hitler and the Nazis formed a coalition with the monarchists and convinced Hindenburg that they would help restore the Monarchy if Hindenburg helped them take power and granted them new powers.

I'm not going to claim we are necessarily in the same situation today, but I do think it is worth being aware of how this kind of thing can happen.

We should be extremely wary about giving a charismatic leader extraordinary powers, even if that leader promises that power will only be used to accomplish your goals.

Yes, I'm Hungarian, and I'm not even mad (pun intended) about "mad" matching "madzag". I find that we ourselves sometimes conflate characters and letters, so many people's first thought would be that "madzag" is six letters. I think most other digraphs e.g. "sz" or "gy" are considered more tightly bound, so one would be unlikely to say that "szám" (=number) is four letters rather than three.
I think it's just rare for a lot of people to be handling raw video. Most people interact with highly efficient (lossy) codecs on the web.
I think he is probably right, if you think of Starship has a government-paid program to produce a moon lander. The Starship program has blown though the NASA money to produce the basic version (but not yet the additional money agreed for a more advanced design), but has yet to deliver on any of their contracted goals.

So by its own contract, it is just about to be over-budget, behind schedule, and thus a failed project. You can argue about the pandemic blowing their timing, but the fact remain.

But SpaceX is not treating the Starship as solely a moon landing project. They are using NASA's money presumably alongside other SpaceX and Starlink monies to produce a workhorse for a number of projects alongside the moon lander part. In the closer-term it will become the launch vehicle for Starlink (the next-gen of which is too big to be launched on other vehicles), and in the (very) long-term as a vehicle to Mars.

So SpaceX probably sees the Starship project as behind schedule (par for the course, both for space projects, and for Elon Musk), but not out-of-budget. Whether their customer, NASA, agrees with this outlook is something you would have to ask them.

So I think that the video's points are true, but lack some context.

> Earth is boring, Mars is exciting. Why solve the immediately available, mundane and sometimes hard issues we have on earth

Why must they be mutually exclusive?

The space race that started seven decades ago brought immense benefits to humanity as a whole. Any progress made in the pursuit of colonizing Mars would undoubtedly have positive repercussions for us Earthlings.
I believe the Dem plan contributed to the massive apathy or large cohorts voting for the GOP candidate. People that have houses, school age kids and aren't planning on starting businesses see nothing valuable with those plans.

The Democrats are ignorant that their open arms (accepting everyone, working for everyone) policies and rhetoric will sway minorities when culturally there are strong christian and catholic populations amongst demographic minorities that have firm beliefs that are conservative.
The same way you know whether it's ok to talk about someone's family life, or politics, or anything else; you get to know them.
>We can look forward to more war

Do you really believe the Dems would do less war? They are literally siding with Dick Cheney. They were always very pro-war (eg. Hilary Clinton) but now they don't even hide it and they are embracing the whole "security through strength" and "escalation to de-escalate" in the middle east.

If you look back at the past few presidency (incl. Obama), Trump was far more peaceful. He was the first president in a very long time to not invade a new country. I don't think he does it out of love or empathy, I suspect he just thinks it's a waste of money, but the end result is the same.
It is a double u in English. Naming it differently would be wrong.

I think it's a double v in German. Since French doesn't really use it, they could import any of the names. Portuguese is on the same boat. It imported the double u name, but still has plenty of words where it's a double v... you can't make it all correct.
For sure. I am asking who could they have picked after Biden's performance at the debates? E.g. after the damage was done. Kamala was probably the most prominent of all democrats at the time. The alternative would have been some no name senator or Hillary.
Probably true, honestly. High inflation impacts everyone, where high unemployment probably affects fewer people directly.

Yes. In Scotland where we have devolution from the UK government, there is a party that wants to dissolve the parliament that campaigns to be elected to that parliament. Just democracy.
Interesting, and that's a shame. When I lived in Seoul as an American 10 years ago[1], I loved it. Everything there seemed nicer, more functional, and safer than in any city that I've ever experienced in America. It had an attractive mix of shiny new stuff and ancient stuff. There was natural beauty even just outside of the city, easily accessible by public transit. I'd like to see them open up to immigration because my wife and I would actually consider moving our family there permanently one day if it were an option.

> If the NSA had that info, why go through the trouble?

To defend the optics of a backdoor that they actively rely on?

If Apple and the NSA are in kahoots, it's not hard to imagine them anticipating this kind of event and leveraging it for plausible deniability. I'm not saying this is necessarily what happened, but we'd need more evidence than just the first-party admission of two parties that stand to gain from privacy theater.
When it comes to deciding between a Bullmastiff Doberman mix and a Pomeranian American Eskimo mix, there is no clear-cut winner.
Both breeds bring a lot of value to the table, and both can make excellent pets. Ultimately, the decision comes down to personal preference and lifestyle.
The Bullmastiff Doberman mix is a loyal, intelligent, and tenacious breed.
They are strong and confident, making them a great guard dog.
They are also incredibly loyal and protective of their family.
This breed requires a lot of physical and mental exercise, so it is best for an active family.
On the other hand, the Pomeranian American Eskimo mix is a playful, affectionate, and intelligent breed.
They are small and gentle, making them great for families with children.
They are also low-maintenance and require minimal exercise, making them a great choice for those with a busy lifestyle.
Ultimately, the decision between the Bullmastiff Doberman mix and the Pomeranian American Eskimo mix comes down to lifestyle and personal preference.
Here are three reasons why the Bullmastiff Doberman mix may be the best choice:
They are loyal and protective of their family.
They require a lot of physical and mental exercise.
They make excellent guard dogs.
Closing border, halting illegal immigration, mass deportations - these are massively net positive for US citizens who are uneducated and poor. Migrates are competing with them for jobs, housing, social services, all resources.

Lowering taxes especially payroll and corporate and overtime taxes has a massive benefit to them. Lower income tax rates are actually very high once it’s understood that any tax or regulatory cost that is a head tax is a tax on them - “employer taxes” is a fairy tale economically, all taxes are on the employees if they aren’t paid if you are fired, if they are still paid then they are on investors/shareholders/capital and those are also negative for growth and employment.

Ending forever wars will allow shifting of budget priorities. A reduction of just 10-15% of defense and intelligence budgets and cutting funding to Israel and Ukraine can pay for childcare for every child in the US easily.

The list goes on …

Better question is what policies did Harris propose that help the uneducated and poor?
Legal immigrants overwhelmingly voted red. "They" are minorities, white people, men and women, young and old.
> Still refusing to listen to us plebeians. I can't afford groceries. I'm not looking for a scholar-bureaucrat reframe of my problem. I'm looking for a solution.

Every piece of evidence revealed so far points towards Imane Khelif being male. Two blood tests from independent labs showing an XY karyotype, a member of Khelif's coaching team describing problems with chromosomes and hormones while also mentioning that Khelif has been on medication to adjust testosterone levels to bring this closer to the female range, and most recently, a leaked medical report showing that Khelif has a male-specific disorder of sexual development: 5-alpha reductase deficiency (5-ARD).

We can ascertain from all this that Khelif went through male puberty and has the male physical advantage in sport that is caused by male sexual development.

Interestingly this is the same DSD that Caster Semenya has. Semenya is another male athlete who competed in a women's category at the Olympics, for the 800 metres track event, and who also won gold.

Individuals with this condition are sometimes mistaken for female at birth due to internal testes and an underdeveloped penis. And are then issued identity documents erroneously stating that they are female. This is what happened with Semenya and almost certainly is the case with Khelif too.
