Yep. It pulls the actual config from a Redis database.

A 16-digit (64-bit) network ID consists of two parts: the 40-bit ZeroTier address of the node responsible for serving network configuration to members, and an arbitrary 24-bit network ID. When you join a network it just queries the netconf master for the network configuration. It's pretty simple. That's why all the network IDs you create at zerotier.com right now begin with the same 10-digit hexadecimal number. That's the ID of the node responsible for them and there's only one right now (though it's set up to fail over to another server, so it is fault tolerant).

BTW... network configuration servers can go down and networks will keep working. You just can't change their configuration. So it's also fault tolerant in that way.

yes, i wasn't really commenting on the study (the conclusions of which are not surprising) so much as trying to extend the discussion since folks may not discern the subtle underlying mechanisms at work.

it's like staring at pages of math trying to find that off-by-one error. it's much easier to see when it's pointed out.
I worry more about subcultures having their normal criminalized e.g. the drugs those people do need to be punished severely.

This goes back to prohibition and the Ku Klux Klan supporting it to antagonise Irish Catholics.
Not that exact source but the same theme. Kind of sobering. A friend of mine is an Alcor member and totally ready to be frozen if he can't upload his mind into the Internet first.
Ah yes, I had forgotten about that. I seem to recall that older ones had modem functionality, I certainly recall having a fax feature at some point.
I use News/YC on my iPhone. Commenting is broken so I couldn't even if I wanted to :) The story is a little different on my laptop (as you can see) but usually I only let myself comment if what I'm going to say will add value to the discussion: a new perspective, a yet-undiscussed piece of information, some well-reasoned advice (and this only if I've been in similar situations), etc. Also, if I see a subthread between two people that is clearly going nowhere, I avoid it.
Appreciate the kind words. I am very interested in relocating just wanted to go out a bit prepared before I jump into a new city.

There are so many assumptions here it might as well be religion:

- that death does not alter the structure irrepairably

- that the structure and information contained therein will not degrade over time

- that the freezing process itself won't damage the information

- that the information will be recoverable

- that we will be able to make sense of such information

- that the information after successful restoration can be transplanted into some other medium

- that this other medium will be able to 'execute' using that information

- that the electrical component of brain activity once lost can be restored

- and that all of the above will result in a restoration of consciousness

- and that this consciousness will somehow be given the status of person (that's more of a social issue)

All of these together to me are equivalent to or maybe even greater than believing in God.
Sorry, what problem does this solve?

Things are not as easy on other cloud providers where a host cannot get an entire subnet to itself. Rudder aims to solve this problem by creating an overlay mesh network that provisions a subnet to each server. ... is unclear.

What host for virtualized infrastructure needs an entire, fake, non-internet-routable subnet that it cannot provision itself?

I believe there's a broken one size fits all network architectural assumption or provisioning methodology at the root of all this.

(Edit as reply to child as rate-limited: Sounds like I was right, and it's docker's fault. How is this not better solved with the standard approach of applying network namespaces and/or unique interfaces to containers?)
I mean that those who have been living in the city for decades but didn't buy there may now find themselves pushed out. They could have bought twenty years ago for much less but they didn't. If they'd bought property they would have instead made a huge profit. That's one of the risks you take when you rent rather than buy -- that values may go up significantly and push you out.

I would prefer the lockdown to not. The incident (since revealed as a hoax) was about three miles away. Best if the kids are inside in a controlled environment, away from police and escaping bad guys.

No one knew it was a hoax until much later.

Also my kid's school had a fatal shooting last year. On balance I, as a parent (and I'm nowhere near a helicopter parent), think the best option out of no good options is to be safe, controlled and cautious. They were released from lockdown (actually, just everyone inside and otherwise normal school ops and schedule) after about an hour.

I think there are some valid concerns. But I think there is also a certain amount of reaction, in some circles, against the idea that we should be able to hack our way out of global warming without actually reducing our carbon emissions.

I'm all for reducing carbon emissions as fast as we reasonably can, but it takes time. I don't think we should reject geoengineering out of hand, at least as a stopgap. Whether it becomes something that we wind up doing hundreds of years into the future, and what the costs of that will be if we do, remain to be seen.

I'm actually surprised we haven't started experimenting with adding sulfur to jet fuel. Nature puts sulfur in the stratosphere itself on occasion, so we have a pretty good idea that it works. The half-life is on the order of a few months, so if we overdo it a bit, all we have to do is stop. I saw a long list of objections to the use of sulfur aerosols, and the only one that seemed strong to me was that it doesn't help at all with ocean acidification. Well, okay; but iron fertilization would work for that.

Maybe using these (and possibly other) techniques in concert would mitigate the downside that each would have if you tried to solve the whole problem with it.

> Wouldn't it make more sense for individual agencies to re-jigger their IT policies

How do you get bureaucracies to do that though?

Not by fiat from the top. The system simply doesn't work that way, the career bureaucrats have usually made a career out of subverting the orders that come from politicians which they don't like. Read Robert Gates's book about him running the DoD to see what he had to do to get some progress on some things at DoD, and then realize that most agencies are not lead by people as capable as Gates.

That's why they are hiring some people near the top. The USDS will serve as the White House's eyes and ears for agency management of IT, and the bureaucrats within the agencies can either get on board (and get performance evals listing how they helped supported "Presidential efforts") or try to get in the way (and get caught by staff at the USDS who can actually call them out on their bullshit and teach agency heads how to spot bullshit).

> The existence of a problem is virtually undisputed

This thread includes people's opinions that this is not a real effect, and is instead the result of poor methodology, sampling bias, and whatnot.

It is really not fair to say that the problem's existence is undisputed. There are plenty of people who dispute it, and that's also a problem.
Yes. The compiler kept track of which source locations were impacted by which types of "method upgrades". Was something inlined? Dead code eliminated? Converted to a direct call to an internal entry point (avoiding dispatch)? Converted to a direct slot accessor? All of those could be colored differently.

I'm thinking of writing a blog post along the lines of "So, you thought that was a function call, eh?" as Dylan treats everything as a function call at the syntax level, but can go and optimize it into something better. That'll be a pretty complicated post though with a lot of Dylan + generated code examples and I know that I lost some people today by showing C in the type system overview post.

Why is it tragic?
According to ISO, Wales is a Country[1], not a "Principality".

Your logic is unsound. There is a huge difference between seeing that something is possible in principle and "a solid case", one that merits spending vast sums of money on. That difference is known in religious studies as "a leap of faith".

If you need that leap of faith spelled out, then these are the steps that must be true in order for cryonic preservation to be real and desirable (i.e. "worth it"): the scientific feat you describe needs to be really possible and not just in principle; humans are able to achieve this technology; the preservation process used today must be correct; technology must progress long enough for humans to achieve this technology; future society must be motivated to resurrect our dead; the kind of life offered in the future is one the preserved would desire; the resurrected would be able to adapt to future society; the resurrected would have the means to live a meaningful life in future society.
Just off the top of my head, hard drive encryption is an OS-level security feature that's reasonably "free" in terms of convenience.

But even if all previous efforts have failed, which I really don't think is the case, trying to improve security is surely a laudable goal. And even if you would consider sandboxing to be inconvenient, there are plenty of people who'd love to have something like that.

Right now, if I open up an application, I have no idea what directories it's accessing or servers its communicating with. Forcing an app to tell me whenever it wants to access something new would be fantastic, and as a side effect, it would put pressure on application programmers to reduce the number of privileges they ask for.
This does make the compiler work much harder though! Having to optimize dispatch everywhere makes it quite a different thing from how a good optimizing Scheme or CL compiler works.

I explicitly advocate crippling tools and making them more complex if it results in them being easier to learn.

The cost of a barrier to entry is multiplied by everyone it keeps out who could have been productive / creative / or found their passion.

The cost of a limited set of tool features is, arguably, that people will exhaust the tool and be limited. However I have never found this argument convincing given what was achieved with 64kb of memory, or even paper and pencil.

The typewriter, the polaroid camera, the word processor, email. All are increases in complexity and massive decreases in effort to learn and they all resulted in massive increases in the production of culture and exchange of ideas. Some inventions are both easier to learn and less complex (Feynman diagrams) but if I had to pick one, I pick easy to learn, every single time.
As complete populations, girls aren't any smarter than boys on average, but in those programs the girls are always among the top students -- because it's only the most exceptional girls who overcome the social factors which keep most of their peers out of those subjects.

Social factors like the assumption that women who consistently outrank their peers are 'significantly more aggressive'? I'm sure you mean well but your post here seems like a classic example of circular reasoning. You assume that because the total population of women entering such programs is not any smarter on average, those who consistently perform well rather than quitting must therefore be of only average intelligence, and are making up for it by being more aggressive and competitive (than, I assume, the average man). It's equally possible that women of average or median intelligence deicde they're unlikely to succeed in that field and drop out, leaving only the best female students.

My wife is an EE and there were only 2 women in her graduating class out of a total of 30 or 35. She's had to put up her share of colleagues complaining about her being 'abrasive' and so on. It seems to me that this only exists relative to the complainant's prior expectations of women, eg her emails tend to be short and to the point rather than chatty or friendly. The horror.

I don't think it has to be violent, but I think the way things are going it will be.

Tens of millions of people are without healthcare, getting their homes taken away and are unable to provide for their families.

To put it bluntly, they're desperate.

Also, America has a history of violence, an armed populace and a "I'll take what's mine" foundational attitude.

Combine desperate people with a history of violence, and you get Ferguson, New Orleans, etc. etc.
At what point is there enough evidence to convince some people that there IS a problem

I'm not disputing the fact that there is a problem. I'm sure there are lots of problems, in fact.

What I'm saying is that it's facile to observe that women in tech are more often described as being aggressive and to assume that this is a problem with how people are described; it would be equally consistent with the evidence to conclude that the problem is one of non-aggressive women never getting hired into this field.
Fortunately, brains don't work like RAM chips and there is apparently evidence that important data is saved in molecular structure, not in electric charges.

Google removes authorship from search results
The main issue with them is that they require that the object be ==, not just =. But given that almost every use that I know of for them in the core libraries is for integers or symbols, this isn't a big issue at all.

This is a case of the 'higher order bit'. Housing costs have increased to the point where other costs are negligible by comparison. The ratio of <cost-of-non-housing-good> to rent will of course be low.

I wonder how long until a cryopreservation startup goes bankrupt and all its customers are 'killed'. Being famous provides some insurance against this I suppose.
Most of the comments (all of them that I've seen) say that the effect is real, but the source isn't necessarily a bias in the reviews, because of how the study was conducted (eg, there could be a hiring bias).

Bringing up a different cause to explain an effect is not dismissing the effect as existing in the data, merely calling in to question the source of it.
Build a website that reflects the latest work you have to show. If you're embracing UI/UX, read up on the latest and incorporate those ideals:

Most importantly, think different.
It's a bet against future technology. How it differs from religion is that a/ we know that required technology is possible, b/ we are pretty confident that current cryopreservation methods are good enough for the required technology to be able to reverse the process, and c/ we make a bet that humanity will reach the point a/. Note that we are sure it can be done, we only don't know if it will be.

What you described is an explanation for WHY they are rated different. It doesn't discredit the study methodology.

Right, and I'm not objecting to the conclusion "women in tech are described as being more aggressive than men in tech". What I'm objecting to is the logical jump from there to assuming that the difference is due to a bias in the "described" part rather than a bias in which people enter the tech field.

My read of this is that tel (mis)interpreted andralex as saying that all types must support equality and hashing, not that types must support equality and hashing to be hashable. It would be tragic because there can be types with no meaningful way to produce a hash or test for equality.

If that's not the case, then I don't understand either.
Cryonics is the opposite of religious faith in an afterlife, actually. It only makes sense with strict physicalism. If your self is neural state (structural and chemical but not electrical), and the state is preserved, then your life is on pause. That's almost a truism.

> one that merits spending vast sums of money on.

It's not a lot of money actually, it's just life insurance, a portion of which is allocated to Alcor in case cyropreservation is possible after death. Maybe $20 a month or something depending on your age when you got the policy, plus an annual fee that is mostly deductible as a charitable donation. I consider this fee donating to science, since Alcor actually does good science and publishes research papers. So $20 and a dream and maybe you get to try again.

It's not a risk free investment by any means, but it doesn't require heaps of denial involving topics of science like evolution, intolerance of others, or any dogma. If you want to think cryopreservation is like a religion by all means do, but you're not convincing me.
Attanasio's Solis also covers this topic without optimism; the protagonist's brain is used in a mining machine IIRC.
Your logic is inconsistent. This author is applying real data to an assertion. That assertion is backed up not only by my own experiences, but to the dozens if not hundreds or thousands of women sharing this all over social media with something akin to "see, this happens to all of us."

The author makes no such blanket statement as you suggest--rather she shows the results of her own study. What's facile is not her conclusions but rather the non data backed assertions you claim. You are the one asserting she extends her findings beyond her own sphere. to quote the author:

"I only have the data I have. I don’t know whether women were simply more willing to submit reviews that include critical language, or whether men removed language from their review documents before submitting. But the directional indication is striking and calls for further investigation by managers and HR departments. At most mid-size or large tech companies, HR leaders supervise review scores to uncover and correct patterns of systematic bias. This is a call to action to bring the same rigor to the review language itself."
