Exclusive municipal franchise agreements have been prohibited since the Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992.

Your city cannot unreasonably refuse to grant a franchise to another operator, in the unlikely event another operator would like to provide a similar service. These things used to be a government-granted monopoly, but IMHO, the continuing lack of competition stems from market realities.

Building a new network in a city that's already covered adequately is hard to justify economically, because switching is a pain, and most of the market can't really tell the difference between providers; and even if you do start to attract customers, the competitor's network likely gets better as you relieve their bottlenecks.

Targeting only the areas of the city that aren't well served is likely to not be economically viable either. For one thing, the franchise agreement might have a minimum coverage percent. For another, there are probably reasons the other network doesn't cover those areas; some of which may still apply.

And there's the elephant in the room, the incumbent presumably has enough revenue from other areas that they can cross-subsidize network updates and build out to compete where you are. In some ways, this was Google Fiber's market strategy: Google Fiber's corporate goal was to get more people connected at high speeds so that they could load higher quality ads on YouTube and other Google properties. Building out fiber in the Kansas Cities was a way to meet that goal in those cities, but it was a lot of work. By announcing planned cities in early 2014 [1], Google was able to induce incumbents to improve their networks in those cities, reaching their goal before any Google Fiber permits were approved in those cities; then they could wrap it up and end all expansion works. :P

How can you both think AI will do a soulless garbage job and that it will displace all the creative people who put their blood sweat and tears into doing art.

If you think it can be 20 times easier to make a movie, then it seems to me that it would be 20 times less impactful to make a creative work, since the market should quickly react to creative success by making a ton of cheap knockoffs of your work until the dead horse is so thoroughly beaten that it's no longer even worth paying an AI to spit out cheap knock-offs
There's plenty of ISPs that offer over 5gig for an affordable price. You just need to live in a datacenter near an internet exchange. :)
It would be a net win if it could normalize sending prompts instead of normal communication, which is not far in terms of useless waste of energy and space to LLM output that emulates it.
it's a good point you raise, you are definitely paying attentiong, but no, that's literally not the right interpretation of what it says.

it says you should own both Coke and Pepsi instead of either one exclusively; you actually want Coke, Pepsi, and 7up and Polar and Canada Dry and/or Dr. Pepper and/or whatever else is an independent company. In what proportions should you own them? weighted by their market caps.

but you also want to own every other company as well, weighted by their market cap.

Wilshire 5000 >> S&P 500

The reason to avoid the S&P is not because it contains competitors, it's because it does not include 4500 other companies. But that aspect of investing is CAPM.

Portfolio theory refers to your own portfolio. Never think "I made a great investment in Company X earlier this year." why? because what was the rest of your money in, you didn't put it all in X, did you? And what was your money in when it wasn't in X? You must always look at your entire portfolio, and you must always look all the time. Nobody cares if you won a hand of poker, the question is, how do you do on average and over time.
brilliant, thank you
EKS is priced at $876 / yr / cluster at current rates.

Negligible for me personally, it's much less than either our EC2 or RDS costs.
Nah the difference between managing k8 and the system it was based on is VASTLY different. K8 is much harder than it needs to be because there wasn't tooling for a long time to manage it well. Going from google internal to K8 is incredibly painful.
Yes, those examples you gave are also disgusting, but do not make politically motivated actions against Elon Musk right.

This is nothing new. The British banned skilled textile workers from immigration to US.

Edit: The British also banned export of advanced textile machines during the industrial revolution to US. It's very similar to the US/Europe banning ASML machines from being sold to China.
You can, but a lot of these pattern analyses work out because people get sloppy and overconfident over time, and don't use these measures even if their lives are on the line.
I don't know what to say except that the overwhelming majority of HF spaces are made as Gradio demos and that gradio's whole design makes it far easier to do async things unrelated to reloading the webpage - which is a huge thing for ML/AI demos.

I don't claim you're wrong, but I claim that gradio is far more effectively profitable to know than streamlit is - i.e. Gradio demos are used far more for a top AI paper demo (i.e. NeurIPS system demos) than Streamlit is.
I've been in two situations like this where I eventually "WON". You don't simply heal. You don't accept that that just wasn't the place for you and move on. What you do is have your perspective on other humans permanently and irrevocably changed. If you are a certain kind of person who values truth and personal responsibility, you come to understand that the world is fundamentally incompatible with you, and are faced with the choice of living a meaningful life where you are constantly preyed upon and abused, or living a meaningless existence in which you betray everything you ever valued about yourself.
I’m surprised Cloud Run doesn’t let you do this. You can put an AWS lambda in a VPC no problem.
I think that's correct. She was first flagged with standardized tests.
> In other words, there is simply no more land for us to begin farming; we are using as much land as is possible to produce food for humans.

Problem is, I doubt many people overcome this hurdle - that "juvenile trick" is pretty much the defining quality of articles and books we consume.
That goes for both store bought and homemade.
So stupid. I realize artists are panicking but this angle just makes them look like Luddite villains.
I'm not sure if your explanation is comforting or disconcerting.
You can only query by key (and key ranges). To work with the fact that FoundationDB just exposes keys as raw bytes, the FDB team developed a rather clever 'tuple' serialization protocol and standardized its presence in the different client bindings. This encoding lets developers turn a tuple of values into byte string that sort correctly, making them useful for creating indexes and other higher level layers such as directories. This library appears to be a nice CLI interface to working with those facilities.

Unless you were using these tools (tuples and directories) on top of another KV store, this query language probably wouldn't help much elsewhere. However, the tuple encoding scheme is rather straightforward and for doesn't depend on anything specific to FDB (aside from versionstamps but you just wouldn't implement those for another DB).
Wait, you can't shard on session ID?

And this is an ephemeral key-value store here, which is basically a best-case scenario from a performance standpoint. It's basically the last thing you're going to need to think about sharding, which is why session stores traditionally cohabitate(d) with web servers.

No, session storage doesn't get expensive fast. It's extraordinarily cheap unless you screw up the configuration very badly indeed (Apparently PHP still defaults to writing session data to disk?!)
I think they actually did manage to fuck up even the small unmanaged switches. I have three unmanaged switches at home, one on the ground floor and two in the first floor. Ground floor is an 8 port netgear, first floor are one to link and one d link.

Every couple of weeks, the entire wired network goes down. Not even pinging adresses works. The d links ports leds are all flashing (perfectly in sync!) until I power cycle it. Then everything goes back to normal.

I have no idea what happens, and I should probably replace the d link soon.
AC3D: Analyzing and Improving 3D Camera Control in Video Diffusion Transformers
Thanks for the recommendation. There's considerable latitude in implementation of the rulings. Even within the law itself, there are strong/weak positions, dispensations for some circumstances etc. Among schools of thought, there are differences in opinions which might, to a non specialist, seem very trivial but they have huge consequences when implemented at scale. Music and it's role in the Ottoman sultanate is one example that comes to mind.

And outside of that, there are cultural, economic and human factors that also have their effect on the practice (and sometimes even the theory) of religion.

Generally speaking, Islamic canon law keeps evolving over time while trying to stay faithful to first principles. It's a specialist field and requires a lot of time and study to formulate rulings. It's the reason why, I mentioned in another comment that studying the basics from a derived text is sufficient for "most Muslims". People often turn to the primary texts for general guidance and succor but for details about a narrow situation, they refer to the other books or speak to a scholar.
The 200,000 unit cap was part of federal legislation, not state legislation. That was repealed as part of the Inflation Reduction Act under the Biden administration, and replaced with a new system where you qualify for the credit based on the sourcing of your battery materials and other factors.

Here, Newsom is proposing an entirely new incentive that he has designed specifically to exclude Tesla.
I think it may have something to do with the launch of Windsurf, which uses Sonnet 3.5. Within days of launch, I noticed lots of problems with Anthropic - not only with Sonnet but also with Haiku. I use it for coding assistance and the quality of the code went way down. I was also constantly getting rate limited. Also keep in mind that Copilot has also added Sonnet as an available model, causing more problems with overhead.

So basically...yeah, probably growing pains.
Probably blown away by what was possible so they panicked.
It's probably both? These kind of incentives were in place when the only player was Tesla.
The Katyń forest massacres (to the extent that about a third of the victims were targeted for being members of the intelligentsia) come to mind as a reasonably similar instance of the kind of "lynching" you're referring to. Within the USSR itself we have the purges of leading intellectuals in Ukraine -- the number of victims is more difficult to quantify, but was likely far beyond the few hundred known by name:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executed_Renaissance

The June 1941 (and later) deportations in the Baltics (involving inevitably a very high mortality rate) seem to have at least partially targeted the intelligentsia as such in those Republics (in addition to the other usual suspects).
> This causes all kinds of issues with different workloads with different performance characteristics and requirements.

Most of these issues can be fixed by setting resource requests equal to limits and using integer CPU values to guarantee QoS. You should also have an interface with developers explaining which nodes in your datacenter have which characteristics, using node labels and taints, and force developers to pick specific node groups as such by specifying node affinity and tolerations, by not bringing online nodes without taints.

> They also share ingress and egress nodes so impact on those has a large blast radius.

This is true regardless of whether or not you use Kubernetes.
Wow yeah. The pixelation makes it hard but chopstick pens, pages moving, cars crossing over eachother.

Demo's gonna demo.
I just use a single k3s install on a single bare metal from Hetzner or OVH, works like charm, very clean deployments, much more stable than docker-compose and 1/10 of the cost of AWS or similar.

If you're making an application, there's really nothing special about the DOM.

You might as well control your drawing. That way you don't need to figure out cross browser incompatibilities all day.

That doesn't seem right.

I suspect they mean that it is protection against it "going missing", as in there's a record of the money being brought in.

I don't think it protects against anything just to declare to customs.
I wish the slop era would just get up to speed already so it can be seen for what it is.
I came to a realization that such communities could only exist because one had to try to be a part of it, look for it, and actively participate to create a unique atmosphere. When things are too easy (look up and online event, buy a ticket, and just go), it doesn't signal commitment to the group you're a part of and culture doesn't stick around. Obviously there are billions of exceptions, but it might be hard to revive an environment like that nowadays.

It's the whole sense of nostalgic feelings that I've never lived through that bothers me while reading through the article, as I genuinely wish I could experience that in person...
How did you make a cross platform native UI like that? I keep trying to start writing native apps but give up because of the GUI

Controlling the URL makes a lot of sense if you're publishing HTML that a browser can directly render but ATProto/Bluesky doesn't really work that way. The underlying data is CBOR/JSON that needs to be interpreted by an AppView and client. So you need to control the URL of your data and also control the AppView and client.
The accusation of ageism jumped out immediately.
You can use SQLite as a queue it is better suited to the task than redis.

SQLite supports atomic operations - the key requirement of a message queue.
In some ways that's worse because it means you can be blocked at the DID layer.
Yeah, for all the talk of Sora building an internal “world model” that could be a building block for AGI… this seems to suffer from all the same glitches as the Will Smith spaghetti video, just with much, much more polish.

I don’t think it’s that much worse than what OpenAI showed off earlier in the year when you consider that those examples were very cherry-picked, though. These new videos don’t make it seem like a bad model, they’re just a bit more realistically mediocre.
There's the third case: they care. In which you wouldn't be able to tell whether the card is "genuine" or AI written; the two things aren't even meaningfully different in this scenario.
That's incredibly petty and I like it. Half of America has only contempt for anyone who tries to play nice, get played, and cries that it's not fair. If you want to win, you have to play to win. If you want people to stop listening to Elon Musk, you have to make him a loser.

It's time Democrats took the lesson.

Startups need product-market fit before they need scale. It’s incredibly hard to come by and most won’t get it. Their number one priority should be to run as many customer acquisition experiments as possible for as little as possible. Every hour they spend on scale before they need it is an hour less of runway.
Meta: Why does HN allow pay-walled submissions? What percentage of HN users have a 404media account? Why even allow a post that the vast, vast, majority of HN users can't even read?

I feel like you'd also get more uninformed comments from people that could only read the headline and first paragraph or two, but are missing all the additional context from the rest of the article.
Even as a K8s hater, this is a pretty salient point.

If you are serious about minimizing ops work, you can make sure people are deploying things in very simple ways, and in that world you are looking at _very easy_ deployment strategies relative to having to wire up VMs over and over again.

Just feels like lots of devs will take whatever random configs they find online and throw them over the fence, so now you just have a big tangled mess for your CRUD app.
Facebook requires users to be at least 13 (or 14) years old while signing up. So, Australia is just extending that ceiling by a couple years. No big deal!
When they pulled apart all those kubernetes clusters they probably found a single fat computer would run their entire workload.

“Hey, look under all that DevOps cloud infrastructure! There’s some business logic! It’s been squashed flat by the weight of all the containers and orchestration and serverless functions and observability and IAM.”
Can you think what would happen if your enemies applied this logic to you and your friends?
Huh, there is a following feed...
Appreciate the clarification.

That said, I'd be curious to know why you seem to implicitly accept the Russian regime's currently stated (or reasonably inferable) terms as the only "workable" terms.

Is it because you think it has that much of an upper hand in the situation (to get its way no matter what the West does in the coming months) -- or because the Trump administration will likely simply cave in to pretty much whatever it asks for?

Given the latter's proudly and loudly stated "We don't give a fuck about Ukraine" stance, and all.
Not clear why HTML rendering needed to be infected with async. None of the example code has a clear need for async - even the `is_admin()` method would be a prefetched property in any reasonable database model.
Everyone who knows hotkeys does this.
I’ve come to the conclusion that I hate “cloud shit”, and a small part of me is convinced that literally no one actually likes it, and everyone is playing a joke on me.

I have set up about a dozen rack mount servers in my life, installing basically every flavor of Unix and Linux and message busses under the sun in the process, but I still get confused by all the Kubectl commands and GCP integration with it.

I might just be stupid, but it feels like all I ever do with Kubernetes is update and break YAML files, and then spend a day fixing them by copy-pasting increasingly-convoluted things on stackexchange. I cannot imagine how anyone goes to work and actually enjoys working in Kubernetes, though I guess someone must in terms of “law of large numbers”.

If I ever start a company, I am going to work my damndest to avoid “cloud integration crap” as possible. Just have a VM or a physical server and let me install everything myself. If I get to tens of millions of users, maybe I’ll worry about it then.

Yes, but Sevastopol is a better port, and any naval position in the Black Sea is less secure, when you don't control Crimea yourself.

(Russia got into more trouble than it was worth it, even by their own standards, I'd say. And that's not even getting into the moral dimensions.)
Probably backfired, with people from other economies filling the hole, and opportunities for bilateral trade affected. Ironic given the majority of the pre industrial revolution silk weavers in London were Hugenot migrants, settled in Stepney.

Please look over my comments on HN about Flutter and pure-canvas and such. There are big problems. There is plenty special about the DOM that you lose and cannot gain back if you go pure-canvas. Links. Scrolling. Text handling. Composition. And various more.

Use DOM. Please use DOM.

Use canvas for an actual drawing canvas, but for the UI and anything else that’s largely text, use DOM.
Actually a great side hustle for similarly situated employees who don’t mind fucking over other humans. I wonder how common it is? Big enough where people with these jobs discuss it in a forum on the net somewhere?
Half measure because Australia is afraid to outright ban Tiktok?
The Russia Empire and the Soviet Union ran concerted efforts to Russianise the population of Crimea by various means, like moving in ethnic Russians, removing the locals (to put it mildly) etc.
> Just feels like lots of devs will take whatever random configs they find online

Well it usually isn't a mystery. Requiring a developer team to learn k8s likely with no resources, time, or help is not a recipe for success. You might have minimised someone else's ops work, but at what cost?
Janet for Mortals (2023)
Even the soldier persona is consistent though. The trouble with opsec like this is (1) you always have to win and (2) almost everything - even total randomness tends to create a pattern (since you the negative space of trying not to stand out itself tends to make you stand out).
It sort of does to me - disks made up of concentric orbits are have no intersections, and so collisions are less likely. In a ball, debris would have different directional vectors that would eventually collide with one another. The disk is the stable evolution of that state.

I also need a mouse way too much (and I have shakey hands so trackballs/nipple mice are not viable)
I can relate. When I wanted to become a Linux sysadmin, every entry level position required 3-5 years experience. What field are you trying to break into? What skills do you have? How much experience? Do you have a portfolio / code repos / blog with tips / other thing to show off?
I have same thoughts.

the only form of kubernetes I would be willing to try is the one with kata-containers for having all the security of virual machines.
I forget exactly what the DEA agent was saying, I think I recall him saying that he wasn’t detaining the citizen, who was free to leave, but the bag was detained. Seemed like bullshit from a 95 IQ glorified cop.
No, no, at the time Turkey had actually done all the hard work of getting their currency (mostly) in order. They (or at least the technocrats running the central bank) knew perfectly well that they can't "directly legislate more value into existence".

The extra zeros were just a bit of an embarrassing hangover from wilder times in the past.

Alas, the quality of Turkey's monetary policy has since dropped again.
Or the pinsa that was created in 2001 - however you can see many pinsa offerings claiming that it was already eaten by the Romans. That was quite the successful marketing move by that guy Corrado Di Marco. Seems do be a European thing, though, as there's no English Wikipedia page?

Cloud Run and K8S are not in the same space. One is to make the infra generic, Cloud Run ONLY works on GCP.
