What's the client interoperability story look like in practice for EVM? Ie how much work if any is required to start using an existing Eth wallet implementation with Kaelit (using the "compatibility ECC layer" I assume?) besides pointing an RPC URL with the right networkID? Are semantics and API for smart contracts similar enough that this would even make sense?
Good cable and connectors can set you back by several thousand dollars.

Another domain where that is true involves logic analyzers. A few years ago, on a bit of a lark, I bought a (used) fairly high-end Keysight logic analyzer. The kind of thing that cost like $20,000 or more when it was brand new. But I got a sweet deal on it, so I bought it. Only... it came with no test leads. And then I started shopping for the leads.

Yikes.

I forget the exact numbers now, but as best as I can recall, the leads came in 64pin sets, where the device supported up to 4 test lead sets, for 256 total channels. And just one of the 64pin test lead sets cost something like $1500. So a full set would cost another $6000 on top of the device itself. I think that was about what I paid for the analyzer itself in the first place!

Now I don't regret buying it and in truth I never needed to use 256 channels anyway, so I only bought 1 of the test lead sets so far. But yeah... test leads / cables /etc. for high bandwidth / low latency / high frequency applications get pretty damn expensive.

> It's not a regressive tax

It's a compulsory fee charged by the government not based on income/consumption. That's the most regressive tax. Even sales tax is less regressive than that.

> it primarily assists commuters and small businesses

Relative to any alternative that reduces congestion without charging fees, it doesn't. Even relative to doing nothing, the people being deterred are the ones paying the cost, and the people being deterred are the most price sensitive ones, i.e. the poor.
I understand, but I don't perceive them as tyrants in the "Russian" sense. That’s not to excuse anything, of course. There’s this strange tendency among Russians to almost embrace suffering—and to try to drag everyone else down with them. It’s as if it doesn’t matter that they live in poverty or that their country is ravaged by oligarchs and mafia. What matters is that Russia is big and strong. That seems to be their default mindset.

But back to my original point. A few days ago, I happened to come across some pro-Israel propaganda, and honestly, I was stunned. It was just an Instagram profile claiming to be part of a pro-Israel lobbying organization, but the content was deeply disturbing. They were pushing a heavily distorted narrative, even going so far as to post photos and names of students, accusing them of supporting terrorism. It was all incredibly manipulative. The presentation was slick and more polished than rusias work of course, but the whole thing strongly reminded me of their methods.
Rust's ecological niche, besides the affine types/lifetime stuff, is "borrow as much stuff as we can from Haskell/ML without dragging in a language runtime".

"Without dragging in a language runtime" happens to be a primary requirement for writing bare-metal code or writing GPU shaders.

So you have a language that does have a bunch of nice new features (ADTs, acceptably modern type system, etc.) and doesn't have any of the stuff that prevents you from compiling it to random bare-metal targets like GPUs or MMUless microcontrollers.
Of course, they upgraded from React v17 to v19!

Had not heard of Slang, thanks for sharing.

It's interesting that Slang looks more like Rust than WGSL does, despite WGSL kind of being de facto "owned by" the Rust community.
Definitely a little more ergonomic than type box, imo, but at the end of the day they’re very similar. I use typebox mostly because there is terrible zod support for Fastify. Both are great libs!

I found this article [1] and the one from November from Ben, very educational on understanding motivation. However, putting it in practice is a very different thing.

From [1]:

_That is because the structure of the world economy — choices made starting with Bretton Woods in particular, and cemented by the removal of tariffs over time — made them nonviable. Say what you will about the viability or wisdom of Trump’s tariffs, the motivation — to undo eighty years of structural changes — is pretty straightforward!_

The fixing offer is only valid in some locations, would require you to be without your phone for some time, and since Android still doesn't have anything that would be considered working backup and restore, I can't imagine many people being comfortable mailing their phone out for a replacement.

The $50 "cash" offer came with so many downsides that just ignoring it would be the smarter choice for anyone who values their time (someone already provided a link).

Newer employees often see this as incredibly unfair.
Except tarrifs rarely help any of that: there's already extensive regulations in place to require local sourcing for defence critical components, all the way down the supply chain.

And tarriffing imports doesn't make a difference in the case of something like shipbuilding where the real problem is the government hasn't got a consistent order-book to keep factories staffed, operating and training - nor a plan to allow that capacity to leverage into being self supporting.

Like a much better plan has always been defence exports: increase your customer base to spread risk and reduce per unit prices. The F-35 and it's adoption was a great idea in this regard...right up till the US started threatening NATO allies and cutting off avionics support to partner nations (Ukraine) in the middle of a war.

You don't get a defence manufacturing industry without actually paying for a defence manufacturing industry. The whole "bring manufacturing back" idea is almost wholly disconnected from it: a ton of factories extruding plastic childrens roys aren't suddenly going to start making anti-shipping missiles - in fact this is related to a secondary problem which is that it's not remotely clear that a peer/near-peer conflict would look anything like the long wars that WW2 represented due tot he delivery timelines on advanced weapons systems. You basically go to war with the military you have.

I manufacture a small open source product in China, I also warehouse there (because shipping is so much cheaper). About 1/3 of my customers live in the US, other customers live in countries that charge tariffs, they have to deal with local customs or post offices to pay what they owe, it's not something that's really an issue for me (except for occasionally helping people track down missing packages).

Currently shipping out of China seems disrupted, more because the shipping companies are leary about getting stuck with the tariffs, the US doesn't have the infrastructure to collect them, Post Offices don't have the bandwidth, people can't take time off work etc etc - that may change, but it's not something that can change overnight

Trump's exemption for computer stuff will likely mean that my packages will eventually sail through, but I'm about to do another build, China's reciprocal tariffs will affect my cost of parts and it's a bit unfair making my non-US customers pay for this silly pointless trade war, since the silliness changes every day I think I;m just going to wait this out for a month or two
> Well, if [...], then regular IP-based rate limits should work fine right?

I'm not sure. IP-based rate limits have a well-known issue with shared public IPs for example. Technically they are also more resource-intensive than cryptographic approaches too (but I don't think that's not a big issue in IPv4).

I've got a rack of equipment that sometimes requires a special calibration where I need to lug over a signal generator. Of course the only ones we have available that go to the necessary frequency weigh like 50lbs. I've recently been eyeing a little gadget that costs about 1/10 or 1/20 the cost of the Keysight units, interfaces using USB oe Ethernet, and is about the size of a deck of cards. The accuracy isn't perfect on its own but that's what a 10MHz ref clock is for. It's amazing how far tech has come and it's amazing how much we are still paying for these dinosaur pieces of test equipment.

I think a lot of the work is in new device bringup, and given that they can start from official Pixel trees, it shouldn't be too much work to adapt them for whatever GrapheneOS-specific build processes they have, and then I'm assuming the rest of the GrapheneOS customizations are framework side which should be device agnostic. I guess they could have kernel changes for hardening, but not sure how easy or hard porting those would be - is the Pixel 9 series on a newer kernel version than say the Pixel 8?

Personally, hunger shifts my attention away from “junk” food (like pizza and chips) and low-calorie “healthy” food (salads) to high-calorie “healthy” food, like nut butter and greek yogurt or fatty meat.

What I remember from my experiences with terminals and printers (the only display devices available at the time) from 1978-1980 was that the 0x7F <DEL> character rendered as a checkered box. This correlates with (0xFF) Figure 5 in the article. This was common among all printers I worked with, Teletype, Epson, Okidata, TI, Printronix, and even IBM. Also all the Lear Siegler, Televideo, DEC, Hazeltine, terminals I used did something similar. Even the character ROMs in my Ferguson Big Board II, and Kaypro II used the same checkered box pattern.
TL:DW - I did my research on looking for the "best" robot mower and found Mammotion's. The sad thing is the hardware is great but the firmware and app let the user down at literally EVERY step of the way. Here were the low points.

1. Not once over 3 months of use was the mower able to start, mow and complete a job. Often stopping for so reason but somtimes just hitting a tree or getting too close to an edge would make it pause until I came and got it.

2. You have to drive the robot along the perimiter of the lawn, it sounds easy and should be but after trying it 10-15 times NEVER was I able to get the full lawn outline. It would always have some random error or the app would just stop and reset. This was the WORST part of the app.

3. Customer servervise was nice and tried to help but there was nothing they could do but apligize when I called in and tell me to "wait for an app update" that has never come.

This idea is a tale for people who are stuck in stubborness.

It is to make one think that systems (of any kind) can be seen from more than one perspective. It's an attempt to foster empathy through an absurd (yet possible) idea.

There are many of those kinds of tales. Sometimes it does not work, the listener can't bring itself to be empathic to other point of view. Always worth a try though.

The way zod and arktype generally handle this is by providing treating the schema as the source of truth, rather than a type. They then provide a way to define the type in terms of the schema:

// zod 3 syntax
import { z } from 'zod'

const RGB = z.schema({
red: z.number(),
green: z.number(),
blue: z.number(),
})
type RGB = z.infer<typeof RGB>
// same thing as:
// type RGB = { red: number; green: number; blue: number };

For the initial migration, there are tools that can automatically convert types into the equivalent schema. A quick search turned up https://transform.tools/typesgcript-to-zodghl, but I've seen others too.

For what it's worth, I have come to prefer this deriving types from parsers approach to the other way around.

> This is Senator Chris Murphy explaining it’s not economic policy, it’s an attempt to blackmail corporations into submission by making a deal with him in return for sanctions relief.

Weirdly the same explanation works if you're being less uncharitable, i.e. Apple agreed to invest $500B in the US but everybody knows new factories aren't going to be built overnight, so they get a reprieve from the tariffs for now provided they continue to go through with the investment. Which in turn makes them immune from future tariffs once they're actually making iPhones in the US, while allowing the tariffs to be reinstituted against anyone who didn't do likewise.
