I've been using a pair of RayNeo Air 2 "XR" glasses for the past week. "Xtended Reality" is not really true VR, but instead, simply provides a huge 1080p screen in the middle of your field of vision. They're flawed in a handful of ways, especially with blur/visibility around the edges. I need to increase the font size to read with them. Despite those flaws, it's extremely liberating to be able to position myself in any way I want and still be able to see the main focus of my work. I think I'll just keep investing in glasses like these and never buy another monitor ever again.

This is a pretty pitiful comment. It fails (again) to actually make any salient points (what “propaganda platform” are you talking about? How did you reach that conclusion? Based on what?) and instead just does the “anti-interest negativity dance” that so many edgelords are into these days.

> Every item on that list is "boring" tech. Approximately everyone have used load balancers, test environments and monitoring since the 90s just fine. What is it that you think make Kubernetes especially suited for this compared to every other solution during the past three decades?

You could make the same argument against using cloud at all, or against using CI. The point of Kubernetes isn't to make those things possible, it's to make them easy and consistent.

And adding onto this it's not just cost, they also have the fastest turn around and the highest reliability.

It's vaguely analogous to the early automobile market where Ford was dominating by every single objective metric so competitors were left to compete on subjective metrics like styles. Incidentally this era is where planned obsolescence really took off.

Unfortunately for competitors I'm not sure coating a rocket in a chrome finish and running a sleek ad campaign is going to beat out price+speed+reliability.

Sounds like handlers of the “UPGRADE” verb SHOULD have taken the “WOCK” to Poland.
I think the initial setup complexity is less with ECS personally, and the ongoing maintenance cost is significantly worse on K8s when you run anything serious which leads to people taking shortcuts.

Every time you have a cluster upgrade with K8s there’s a risk something breaks. For any product at scale, you’re likely to be using things like Istio and Metricbeat. You have a whole level of complexity in adding auth to your cluster on top of your existing SSO for the cloud provider. We’ve had to spend quite some time changing the plugin for AKS/EntraID recently which has also meant a change in workflow for users. Upgrading clusters can break things since plenty of stuff (less these days) lives in beta namespaces, and there’s no LTS.

Again, it’s less bad than it was, but many core things live(d) in plugins for clusters which have a risk of breaking when you upgrade cluster.

My view was that the initial startup cost for ECS is lower and once it’s done, that’s kind of it - it’s stable and doesn’t change. With K8s it’s much more a moving target, and it requires someone to actively be maintaining it, which takes time.

In a small team I don’t think that cost and complexity is worth it - there are so many more concepts that you have to learn even on top of the cloud specific ones. It requires a real level of expertise so if you try and adopt it without someone who’s already worked with it for some time you can end up in a real mess
I didn't get that reading from it at all, just that it was the state of the world in the story and it had it's benefits and downsides like anything else. It wasn't so much a dystopia than a prediction of where our networking, compute and cryptography technology would take the international power structure. I think a part of the depiction was that power structures and hierarchies are emergent and are not symptoms of a dysfunctional social system, and that no matter what the structure of a society is, hierarchies form and injustice still occurs.

The reality I want for humanity is one where we aren't born partially enslaved, which almost all human beings are currently. A world of power structures, but where people can choose their tribe, where we aren't subject to the dictates of others as a consequence of the coordinates where we are born, would be a much more free world.
>This is quite ironic considering that the last 8 years 'Liberals on the left' have done nothing but react to whatever Trump was doing that day.

No thats literally his point? Trump doesn't provide good interesting politics. Trump makes liberals angry, thats the product. Most of his policy positions are there to generate liberals talking about how his policies are bullshit. If he was suddenly unable to engage with liberals he wouldnt be able to hold right wing interest at all.

The one shot copmala had was to run the most crazy batshit circus of a campaign possible. Free Ponies, Killer clowns, whatever. Keep trump out of the news, and you would break the cycle.

I sure hope not. The state of error handling in shell scripts alone is enough to disqualify them for serious production systems.

If you're extremely smart and disciplined it's theoretically possible to write a shell script that handles error states correctly. But there are better things to spend your discipline budget on.

Unfortunately they don't, and a great many "regular" countries today are in effect matured empires, rump versions of former empires, or local hegemonies / forced unions of other sorts. In effect, they're the successful ones.

The thing is, very few have quite as much of an obsession with their former status, and such a strong revanchist axe to grind (or to be as stuck in such an archaic form of "empire" mode generally) as Russia's current regime does/is.

The rise of the interest rates is not related to seizure of foreign assets.

It’s macroeconomic basics: government is spending a lot, domestic demand increases and doesn’t match the supply, which cannot be balanced by imports (which would require spending of foreign reserves). The economy is gradually overheating, inflation is rising, so the central bank attempts to control it, because its only target is the inflation. That’s as simple as that.

In my experience financial services have been notably not doing it.

> Load Balancers: lots of non-k8s options exist (software and hardware appliances).

The problem isn't running a load balancer with a given configuration at a given point in time. It's how you manage the required changes to load balancers and configuration as time goes on. It's very common for that to be a pile of perl scripts that add up to an ad-hoc informally specified bug-ridden implementation of half of kubernetes.

Richard Branson, ADHD Billionaire, on how to be productive
I’ve spent hours reading Richard Branson’s blog the billionaire behind Virgin Group, with over 400 companies. I got curious about how he manages, deals with his tasks, and stays productive with ADHD.

So here's my summary of his approach to being productive while managing his humongous work

Hope this is helpful :)
The subsidy could be independent from the carbon emissions (e.g. by subsidies on the produced goods) while the carbon tax isn't, effectively creating an incentive to produce in a less carbon intensive manner.
That's not "mistake", that's the reality. They don't exchange, and they're not the same. "Same or trivially derived" is just a completely false statement that solely exist to justify Han Unification, or maybe something that made sense in the 80s, it doesn't make literal sense.

Dunno if that’s maybe a typo?

Could be that the signal strength is really weak so they have to use a very directional antenna to transmit and receive signals. I would bet that receiving a signal from a cell phone is the hardest part. You can always omf up the transmit power, but to receive you really need to have a sensitive and directional antenna

Considering that latest data shows that China industrial robot density is only lower than SG and SK (surpassing Japan and German recently), then the west doesn't have the upper hand anymore.
> I trust my doctor and my doctor trusts their sibling, but I don't necessarily trust their sibling.

Isn’t that because that’s a different type of trust? For example, you trust your doctor to give you decent medical advice, and they trust their sibling for emotional support. That doesn’t mean their sibling will be supportive of you, or give you good medical advice.

We have a world run by cliques right now. Where we had guilds, now we have unions. Corporations, "the intelligence community", "healthcare workers", there are lots of different groups in society that often wild unique, real power and exercise it. What keeps the show going is the illusion of egalitarianism and individualism. When a healthcare company lobbies for laws that make them more money, the healthcare workers clique benefits, so they support it. There are a lot of perverse incentives when you combine cliques and a central lever of power that can be corrupted, not as many when where power resides and where people think it resides look like the same picture.

The normal distribution does indeed make some assumptions. Certain natural qualities tend to be notmally distributed like height, but other things like net worth are NOT normally distributed because of feedback loops. The choice of distribution either makes an assumption or validates some other prior assumptions.

Thr choice of using a normal distribution vs another mathematical distribution is not purely a mathematical device, the choice either reflects some assumptions (which one would quickly see if they're valid or not generally).

An interesting case in point for me is when a lot of mathematics assume bell curve distribution in stock market price distributions, like the black scholes option equation does, and it turns out to not really be the best fit. It sort off almost works, but systematically underprices extreme events.

This is what can happen when your assumed distribution turns out to be wrong.

So far though, I haven't heard of refutations that height or IQ (as measured on standardised tests and processed in prescribed ways) are indeed bell curve distributions.

It is called an enumerations of choices, 3 named ones, followed by a generalisation of whatever else might possible as option.

Well that's one way to take a stab at this problem.

>It's a matter of time before large corporations start preventing their employees from using non-approved platforms. They'll probably use cybersecurity safety as an excuse.

That's a good thing. The higher up the stack you go, the less value there is in standardizing, and more painful the costs (of being constrained in implementation).

Also: it is much simpler than IPSEC. Pretty much everybody can get WireGuard working in minutes. It's approximately as easy as setting up SSH. That's simply not true of IPSEC.

Anyways, I think the jury is in on this one.

Most databases I used have a Status column we could mark as active, inactive, or deleted. That way, you can see what records were marked as deleted and change them back in case of accidental deletion.

Keep record retention with the Date_Modified column so you can use SQL delete to remove those deleted records that are older than a year or so.

IMO it depends on what you see as the point of business and entrepreneurship. I don't see money as the goal, but rather on creating great things. So Buffet wouldn't even rank for me, while you would have omitted Musk's closest competitor - Thomas Edison.

Put another way, if in 30 years Musk has 10 trillion in wealth would seem, to me, to be much less relevant than if he succeeds in making humanity a permanently multi-planetary species.

Advancing humanity in so many different revolutionary fields all at once is something that had not been achieved in a very long time.
That's not going to happen.

Remember when the EU wanted to build it's own internet browser? Or it's own search engine? Or it's own sovereign cloud?

None of these initiatives panned out. This is just political posturing when they have literally zero plans on how to achieve that.
I can’t speak for Reason but the ReScript project and community is very alive and vibrant.

They are exploiting that Wifi didn't have 2fa, because they couldn't overcome 2fa. A company accross the street had a machine that both was accessible by ethernet and wifi and they used that as a bridge.

Conclusions:

1. Anything that doesn't have 2fa is leaking like a sieve.

2. The targeted company needs to implement 2fa for their Wifi as well.

Not mentioned, but I assume that their 2fa is using specialised hardware gadgets like Yubikey and not texts or totp, because else they could target the cell phones, and like everything else they are leaking, or they are attacking the cell phone base stations.

Final conclusion:

A network is as strong as the weakest link. In that case Wifi was not protected by strong 2fa and could be used to breach.

Almost had to get neck surgery from a BJJ injury + sitting on a computer all day. This was after BJJ training 3 times a week + lifting twice a week. Would wake up with numb pinkies and would experience shooting pains up and down my neck as I was sitting at my computer.

The thing that prevented a surgery for me was simply fixing my posture, by strengthening the upper back and neck muscles. The most effective exercise I've experienced to achieve this is cable face pulls, with a grip that externally rotates the shoulder. You can see an example here[0].

Non-gym related thing that also helps with posture is getting a standing desk. Its not even necessary to stand, but simply having the ability to change the height of your desk is a massive help for getting the correct sitting posture.

Not true. Unix itself is an API for your cluster too, like the original post implies.

Personally, as a "tech lead" I use NixOS. (Yes, I am that guy.)

The point is, k8s is a shitty API because it's built only for Google's "run a huge webapp built on shitty Python scripts" use case.

Most people don't need this, what they actually want is some way for dev to pass the buck to ops in some way that PM's can track on a Gantt chart.

Measure the round trip and divide by two for the approximate one way time. It'd be really neat to measure the time it takes for a packet to travel in one direction, but it's somewhere between hard and impossible[1]; a very short path has less room to be asymetric though.

[1] If the clocks are synchronized, you can measure send time on one end, and receive time on the other. But synchronizing clocks involves estimating the time it takes for signals to pass im each direction, typically assuming each direction takes half the round trip.
