I actually heard it phrased in exactly same way! Optimal price/quality point for an outsourcing shop is where marginal litigation costs equals marginal profit made. Do better and you lose profit. Do worse and you pay more to lawyers.

You mostly aren't. But you're also foolish to not carry health insurance and homeowner's insurance (even aside of liability) in the US.
To be honest, I never figured out what the evidence could even look like.

Normally, you would try to falsify the existing theory, but, that is not an option, since it never existed - the proponents came with the claim that it had always been known and insisted relentlessly. It has subtle, nondescript symptoms, the only clear sign of the poisoning is its presence in the blood. There are some other measurable chamges, but that would only get stuck on me claiming that it proves its essentiality, vs you claiming that it proves the poisoning. All the evidence like the presence in bones, 250kyo neanderthal teeth, phosphates, coal and so on has supposedly been somehow proven irrelevant. The lack of improved health and intellect, rather the increasingly undeniable presence of the inverse is being ignored. It's essentially unfalsifiable.

Netflix Leverages AWS for Multi-Region Cache Replication: EVCache Architecture
Is it about wealth or about innate talent or their family’s culture? I’m genuinely asking. I’ve seen poor kids do well in schools when their family cares about grades or when they’re just plain smart. The amount of money they had I don’t think held them back.
you really ought to read this thread more carefully :)
My observation (from nearby, not inside) is that Google's cost structure is so high that pretty much everything is a material burden. It's not surprising to me that they shut things down. They had probably also converted whatever technology platform dejanews started with to Google's internal services, which are pretty much impossible to replicate outside of Google.

Wow, this is a long read but hits extremely close to home. I think anyone who has experienced this kind of burnout can relate - I can relate to so much of it, more than I'd like to write publicly.

I'm lucky to have a job where although my main value is tolerating a lot of disrespect and pointless abuse, I value my colleagues a lot and enjoy working with them, and my job/product/company is doing something meaningful, which offsets it quite a lot. I've also been in roles where that hasn't been true and the oppressiveness after a while is hard to put into words - particularly people like the unsympathetic bad-advice relative that thinks anyone that makes what you make shouldn't be miserable at all.

The first time I noticed I was burning out like this, at an old miserable job, was there was a part of my commute I'd been taking for 10+ years where a few weeks in February, the morning sunrise will shine in a particular way at an intersection I noticed. Then, one year, I noticed this again and in my head I was like "oh, it's February again" and kind of uneasily noted that it had only felt like a few months, not an entire year - and then the next year it happened, was even more unsettling - huge chunks of time I couldn't really piece together clearly in between the two years. The year after I got a little bit better of a job and had recovered from burnout, the "February sunlight" phenomenon stopped. It now feels like a full year in between noticing this, if I notice at all, and I'm grateful for that very small and weird win.
Capitalism is more than just free trade. Trade happens between two parties. Capitalism happens between three parties. The additional party is the capitalist who neither produces the traded goods nor consumes them, but is entitled to a share of control/profit due to some kind of abstraction (e.g. property rights).

It's pretty directly related lead poisoning because in the case of mere trade both parties are close enough to the lead to have incentives to avoid it. It's quite plausible that the dynamics change significantly when you add a third party at sufficient remove to feel safe from the hazard, yet who still has a controlling stake in the transaction.
I think a lot of these reasons are explicitly subjective preferences without even making an attempt to list objective criteria.

Windows 2000 was indeed much better than XP and I ran it myself, but it was designed to be a replacement for NT and not geared towards consumers. Win7 was the culmination and peak of what MS started with XP - moving consumers to a stable NT based OS.

W7 was also rock solid, didn't double the system requirements from Vista, and I would also argue had a 99% practically unified UI experience with Aero Glass. The defaults were mostly fine, not worse than W2000 IMO, as a bunch of services still had to be disabled, but it was nothing like what you have to do to restrict W10.

What arguments could you make, attempting to use objective criteria and technical merit only (i.e. excluding being first at something and just considering how well something worked) that 2000 was better than W7, when AFAIK W7 was a better culmination of Microsoft's goals with a better user experience, and much longer longevity. W7 had a longer lifetime than XP, and XP and 7 both had far longer lifetimes than 2000.
It was an era of optimism, I see.
Show HN: Upload a stock trading chart get professional stock analysis instantly
hi, I created stock analysis tool: Chart GPT AI.

Chart GPT AI allow you to upload any stock trading chart to get professional stock technical analysis from the most powerful AI models.

It'll automatically download all the supporting data to do all kinds of analysis:

* General Trend (direction and momentum analysis)
* Market Structure (Deep analysis of market behavior patterns)
* Liquidity Zones (Key areas of high trading activity)
* Order Blocks (Critical fair value gaps and order zones)
* Technical Levels (Support, resistance and indicator analysis)
* Future Trends (AI-powered market prediction)
* Trading Strategy (Actionable trading recommendations)
* Fundamentals (Comprehensive stock valuation and financial analysis)

I think what's helpful:

1. It's Unbiased
The tool uses powerful AI models to look at stock charts without any emotional bias, almost like having a super logical friend weigh in on your investments.

2. Simplifies the Complex Stuff of Technical analysis
Technical analysis can be tough to wrap your head around—I know I've read several books but still struggled with it. Chart GPT AI breaks things down, giving you easy access to key info like support and resistance levels, trends, and market sentiments. No need to memorize all the nitty-gritty details.

3. Get a Second Opinion
When you own some stocks, at some key moments, an extra opinion can be super helpful, especially one that's objective and clear-headed. This tool gives you that without the emotional noise.

4. Seamless Data Integration
One more thing that's really neat—it automatically pulls in all the supporting data you might need. We're talking market data, price history, fundamental data, and even relevant market news. It’s all gathered for you, so analytics can be as comprehensive as possible without any extra work on your part.

This does not really answer your question but there just isn't a good answer given most VPS providers can live-snapshot and live-migrate nodes despite not making that a service. If something is in memory it's under their control regardless of any magical memory encryption implementation providers claim to use.

Use something you control vs. something managed. In other words do not use a VPS and instead send small throw-away servers to low-end colocation sites. Seal the servers by filling them with black epoxy and pre-configure them to be low-power and thus low-heat and "plug-and-play" so that you can just ship them to the colo, they rack mount and it just turns on, gets DHCP information and "just works". Disable all logging and run everything in ram when it boots. Physically remove all solder from all ports except the one ethernet port you wish to DHCP from and sever the board traces. Use a custom BIOS that removes all JTAG debugging and out of band management. Have a DNS query in cron that makes an obscure request to an "all clear" zone. If that DNS entry vanishes the box assumes duress and zeros out ram and storage. When it fails tell them to trash it. Do not send them a replacement as they may have destroyed it trying to get your data. Just let that account fade away. Bonus if you can put the box on the internet without any accounts or business relationships.

None of this is my idea or a new idea. This is not too different than how Akamai CDN devices worked in shared datacenters minus the black epoxy. The black epoxy was used in an early satellite TV decoding box in the 1980's that people eventually learned to drill in the right spots to get free premium channels and porn before people obtained media from the internet. Many decoders were destroyed in this learning process. VideoCipher II has quite a history. Spies and prisoners hide servers in crawl spaces and manage to get them connected to the internet all the time.

What is the best hardware concurrency for running inference on CPU?
Okay, let's say I grant your two extremely optimistic assumptions. Then what? You can send a bunch of tiny sentient brains hurtling through the universe. They will have a very high chance of hitting interstellar dust and turning into a blob of plasma before they reach the target solar system. They also have no way at all to slow down once they reach the target system.

Interstellar travel requires not just being able to accelerate to incredible speeds, but also to carry enough energy and reaction mass to slow down again to (essentially) zero.
Unless you got absolutely fucked in the process, then you didn’t get years of experience in a few months.
> all 2019 scores were at least a little bit lower than they were in 2013.

Do we know the degree to which test scores were high around that time due to schools doing a generally good job vs. gaming the system? NCLB created incentives to do the latter.
Science is limited by what we can falsify, which follows from what we can observe. We should attribute no normative weight to whether something should or shouldn't be scientifically analyzable. So we should always improve our means of observation, as well as our culture towards the things that are difficult or downright impossible to scientifically analyze. Science is a part of philosophy, or a derivation of philosophy with feedback. We should develop all open avenues of philosophy in the course of living.

It varies by system. As the legendary (to some) Kelly Johnson of the Skunk Works had as one of his main rules:

> The inspection system as currently used by the Skunk Works, which has been approved by both the Air Force and the Navy, meets the intent of existing military requirements and should be used on new projects. Push more basic inspection responsibility back to the subcontractors and vendors. Don't duplicate so much inspection.

But this will be the only and last time Ubicloud does not burn in a new model, or even tranches of purchases (I also work there...and am a founder).
And they probably want /dev/zero, that actually produces a stream to overwrite the disk, which /dev/null doesn't.

Anyway, encrypting the drive and destroying the key would be easier.
I'm gonna call that sample bias. If you exclude all injuries that are ephemeral, (because they don't get reported, because they're ephemeral, and forgotten), you're left with the injuries that aren't ephemeral. I mean duh, obviously lol. But my point is still, yes injuries are bad, and as a society, we're pretty trash at healing them, but injuries are more impactful for the individual, than for society.

And bonus point; if we're talking about sociatial responsabilities, given injuries are unavoidable, shouldn't we be trying to fix our responses to them rather than trying to limit people from enjoying life? Mountain biking in fun, so are trampolines. Strictly speaking, the world where we've solved injuries (think any sci-fi pantopia) is better than the world where we didn't because we just outlawed getting injured.
Yes, it feels wasteful compared to my previous driving, in specific circumstances. I drove a manual transmission and made it a goal to not touch the brakes at all for red lights (given acceptable traffic conditions - sometimes people would just be annoyed or confused if I did it every time). I'd see the light from far back, understand its timing, and how many cars were stopped behind it and gauge when I should disengage the clutch and coast. It frequently worked out that I was arriving at the stopped car in front of me just as they were starting to move forward. It feels particularly satisfying not to lose all your momentum just to have to accelerate again from a dead stop.

Overall, however, regenerative braking probably is better given the conditions don't always allow for this game.
The way the US political system works is that the legislative passes laws, the executive enforces laws, and the judicial interprets laws and ensures the constitutionality/legality of it all. This is relevant because in this scenario each body plays a critical role, but they 'beat' each other in different ways, almost like a game of rock, paper, scissors. The executive beats the legislative by vetoing laws, the judicial beats the executive by blocking/halting orders/enforcements of laws, and the legislative can beat the judiciary by passing new laws or even changing the constitution (though there you'd also need the states' approval).

This simplifies some things (like the fact that congress can beat the executive by overriding a veto), but I think generally captures the essence of the system. And a key point here is that judicial beats executive. The executive can interpret a law however they want, but if the judiciary disagrees then the judiciary wins. So nothing needs to be "used" to disregard the judiciary's interpretation of laws - it simply doesn't matter what the executive's interpretation of a law - that's the role of the judiciary.

The reason for this law is simply to bring the various agencies under executive authority in line. Instead of each individual organization interpreting the law (generally around the limits of their powers) at their own discretion, those interpretations will now need to pass through the attorney general.
Remember when they rolled a car down hill because it couldn’t even drive?

> You don't have a network to maintain. If you have a server, it's already on a network.

Well, I'm sure the db server has an IP address? Is it IPV4 or IPV6? How do you receive the IP address? Can it change or not? How do you secure the connection between your web server and the database? Should the database only accept network traffic from your web server or from the wide internet? If the former, you have to keep that in mind when adding a new web server. If the latter, make damn sure the credentials don't leak!

Congratulations, you now maintain a network!
As someone who currently studies public policy I find the centrist declaration interesting because I used to consider myself a centrist until I started reading more on the actual positions of many politicians.

In my limited view Obama was very centrist, as was Hillary, and with some notable exceptions it looked like Kamala would continue the trend (while expediently skewing left and sometimes even slightly right when necessary).

I think if you were to pie chart policy even into Trumps first term you’d see presidential action being both majority in volume and majority in impact as centrist.

So while I agree that Kamala’s messaging failed to point this out during the election, and DEI rhetoric and action being a notable exception to my argument, Kamala was at the end of the day the centrist candidate IMO and thus the 2.0 correction would be more transparency to that reality.
You're lost here. Heritability is defined technically as h^2 = V_a / V_p, with V_a additive genetic variance and V_p phenotypical variance. Look at your hands. The number of fingers on it are extremely genetically determined; the Hox genes that define your body plan are very conserved. V_a is practically zero. But plenty of people have fewer than 5 fingers, and some are born that way (for instance, children exposed in utero to Thalidomide); V_p is nonzero. Evaluate the expression (0/nonzero).

If you read your own words carefully, you're trying to rebut the parent commenter with their own argument.
Well judging from consumer VR people will pick inside out tracking over beacons most of the time.

The headset needs the inside out tracking anyway to draw specially locked virtual objects.

To create a fresh spatial anchor at home on mobile hardware is maybe 1 second of compute time. But that doesn't really matter because the anchors would be shared across every user and computed offline beforehand.

As far as scaling the device itself can be used to crowdsource these anchors so it's not even close that the visual solution wins out.

That said beacons are probably better for supporting handset platforms. Powering up modern cell phone cameras to use AR is pretty slow and tedious for the user.
Fascism is a reaction to a capitalist crisis, Nazis weren't socialists by any definition except for using populist agendas like sharing of profits and welfare to rally their base.

Nazis never nationalised any industry and rather used corporatism to take hold of them while those were still private entities, same in Italy, industry and fascist regimes walked hand-in-hand.

Saying those are equivalent to socialism just due to populist rhetoric is misleading and historically wrong...

What are the consequences of power limiting? The article says it can cause hardware to degrade more quickly, why?

Hetzner's lack of response here (and UbiCloud's measurements) seems to suggest they are indeed limiting power, since if they weren't doing it, they'd say so, right?

I think you need to read that a bit more closely - they describe running and jogging as high-impact as opposed to walking, swimming, and cycling. These articles are almost always saying something fairly specific.

They specifically mention a combo of the two from one study: "A combination of RE and weight-bearing aerobic exercise (e.g., running, skipping, jumping, or high-impact aerobics) is recommended as RE training provides muscular loading while weight-bearing aerobic exercise provides additional mechanical loading to the bone above gravity."

And they still describe a need for end-to-end evidence for improved outcomes: "For determining the effect of RE on the reduction of fall and fracture risk, further large-scale studies are needed to be investigated."
Economists call this sort of labor "goon work". This include PR specialists, lawyers, police, private security, alarm system salesmen, etc.

Goon work produces nothing, so it is a net drag on the economy. The % of goon jobs increases as wealth inequality increases.

Some amount of goon work may be required due to bad actors stealing stuff, hard to tell what the optimal number is.

Rent seeking is a net drag on the economy as well and goons enable rent seeking.
I have experienced migraines since my teens, usually starting with annoying visual artifacts, facial numbness, difficulty speaking, and progressing to intense pain. The worst of them would also cause auditory discomfort.
In my 20s, I could reliably trigger a migraine by doing something intensely physical (like playing basketball with friends) and drinking lots of cold water or taking a cool shower.
Since then, it's been harder to determine a cause other than stress. About 15 years ago, work was really stressful and I had numerous migraines in a four-month period. Once I even got a demerol IM shot, which seemed like much ado about nothing -- I was hoping for great relief, but it didn't seem to do much.
Now in my 50s, I only get about one a year, and it's pretty mild.
Show HN: OpenAstra – Chat based open-source alternative to Postman
Hi HN,

I'm excited to finally launch this project. While existing tools like Postman excel at API discovery and testing, they often require us to navigate complex interfaces, manually construct requests, etc. That's why I created OpenAstra.

The core idea is to combine the visual richness of traditional API tools with the simplicity of a chat interface. Think of it as "Postman meets ChatGPT" - allowing us to interact with APIs through natural conversation while retaining core essential features of traditional API tools. If you want to test an endpoint or understand what it does? Just ask.

The project is still in its early stages, and there's much more to build. I'd love to hear what features you'd find most valuable, and of course, pull requests are always welcome!
