Well I went through some of the same stuff as Rob, but with fewer side projects, and there are several issues, and QNX was one possible route, as you point out dying. I would look at eg Genode for something to work on in that kind of model instead, open source L4 based.

The big problem is GNU, that turned Linux into a bloated userspace, with often broken development processes which are only gradually being fixed. The whole busybox is, apart from the multicall binary thing, just about writing smaller tools. The hard solution is to rewrite userspace, which got us uClibc and later the far superior Musl libc. The easy solution is to use the BSDs, which basically just provide the core system without insane bloat, and with cross compiling and the core userspace already built in.

>This is the same reason Uber is facing a lot of flak right now from governments around the world.

It isn't though. Governments are in conflict with Uber because of things like Uber drivers not being insured. The German government wants Uber to ensure that their drivers are insured. Uber refused to do that. That is why Uber was 'banned'.

Uninsured drivers is a cost spread across society, but the gains are concentrated with Uber. Exactly the kind of situation where government should be stepping in. People can hand-wave all they like about 'new technology' and 'disruption' but at the end of the day the vasty majority of people in society think drivers should have valid insurance and there is no sign of that opinion shifting. There is no need for a 'fix' to government in this case. It is working as it should.

The fact that Silicon Valley gurus are backing Uber so strongly in their quest to fill our roads with uninsured drivers just makes the rest of the world view them as greedy sociopaths looking to make society more dangerous for their own personal gain. Sadly the rest of the technology sector then gets tainted by this asshole behaviour.
I think a lot of the anger is also related to the consistent and blatant lies given by August Germar. The AMA on reddit[1] was a disaster - August was repeatedly called out on various statements, and repeatedly made obviously debunked replies.

But this really comes down to voting. Why does a better funded candidate win? Because a TV ad convinced some idiot to vote for that candidate? I see informercials and "work from home and make millions" scams all the time. But I don't buy the product whatever it might be. Yet voters seemingly are completely ignorant. So candidates who are well funded by special interests end up winning. But often these anti-competitive practices are in primarily Democrat controlled areas. Uber is a great example: Austin, DC city councils for example are entirely Democrat and thus beholder to "labor" and anti-competitive practices. This isn't exclusively a democrat practice, however much of the time it is. The NY and San Francisco war against AirBnB for example is about collecting more taxes. The anti-competitive closed-shop system is entirely democrat supported. The endless taxes and regulation of business is a democrat obsession. Certain national democrats sometimes go against the trend, especially the tech-oriented. But the boots on the ground Democrats are especially prone to anti-competitive tendencies. Protectionism is a hallmark of the AFL-CIO and they completely support (and significantly fund) the Democrat party. I'm not saying "Republicans are good," there are plenty of shit Republicans, however philosophically, Democrats are anti-competitive by nature because the concept of the free market goes against their core values of so-called 'economic justice.' Honestly ask yourself, if this Tesla decision were in the hands of Rand Paul or John Conyers, who would be more likely to support the free market in this situation? Would Ronald Reagan be more likely to support Tesla that Obama? Almost certainly, based on their records. Obama for instance through his supporters on the NLRB have opposed companies such as Boeing to build non-Union factories -- which is in-effect the same thing we have with Tesla -- an attempt to maintain a type of monopoly and artificially constrain the free market in order to serve a specific narrow group of voters and interests. That's what's happening here: the auto dealers, just like the AFL-CIO did with Boeing, are attempting to artificially protect their monopoly position, to the detriment of the population as a whole. I know this comment won't win me many friends here, but I hope that everyone at least researches guys like Rand Paul -- not the propaganda (in either direction) but what he actually says and stands for. If we can get more politicians like him, then perhaps we can start to realize that we can have freer markets, more personal freedoms and perhaps a government that knows when to get out of the way (and knows when to get in the way.) If anyone has the time or the inclination, read the book 'Economics in One Lesson.'

Uber drivers are insured. It's a requirement to drive a car. The opposition to Uber is because te cities lose out on the punitively expensive tax medallion revenue.

Let's count the ways this could have been done better. For starters, Let's not spend most of the time lying to people (apart from the straight up amaturish parts of their project), second, start the project by including the costs of security based milestones in the price of admission.

This results in higher costs because people are being altruistic... so let's make the cost $80 starters...
$40 for Hardware (There are better mini routers out there for the price).
$10 for Shipping.
$10 for Software.
$10 for Security Audit.
$10 for TOR donation, because you're exploiting them for profit (higher pledges to TOR = TOR merch).

The more you sell, the better bulk hardware (increases in RAM/decreases in cost) order you can manage... but for 10,000~ units you'll need somebody with feet on the ground in China to deal with the local team. plus QA and taxes and lawyers and.. ARGGHHHHH

plus, should have an open and detailed platform with a threat model and design documentation before you even start.

Which OS/disto?, which packages/why these packages?, GCsecurity? firewall? administration UX? Update path? Stretch goals?! Feature set? Less is more in this kind of thing...
It seems like the routes would have to be a lot more static for that to work, negating the big advantage of the internet over traditional circuit switching. Right now each end-to-end link negotiates its own window size and can accept that many packets before acking, and it doesn't matter whether half of those packets go by one route and half of them by another, they just have to all arrive at the end.
No such thing as European model. It's German model.

Standard insurance policies have restrictions that exclude driving other people for money. As soon as you do that, your insurance policy is invalid and you're driving uninsured. (Also, I believe Germany has specific minimum insurance requirements in law for taxi drivers and equivalents.)
Thanks for a good article on list building
I'm talking about the case in Germany. Why are you linking to articles that start with the words "In The US"?

This is the kind of blind defence of Uber that gives the entire tech sector a bad name.
I remember some years back Nokia made software SIM but it disappeared from the radar probably due Telcos pressure. Glad we get something to that direction finally.
As stated before, Rungis is absolutely not secretive at all. Every average citizen knows about it.
It was initially within Paris (now Chatelet-Les Halles station) and was moved in the suburb to expand.
Not only top-chef buy their food there, but the large majority of french restaurant, not only within Paris but from the rest of France.

I wonder about the doubts raised by the article on the future of Rungis. Rungis is almost a religion. I don't see it declining. In fact it has no competitors at his scale.

Can you provide a reliable source that German Uber driver carry commercial insurance?

While you're right that in order to drive a car you need insurance such insurance is personal and never pays for damage, which results from commercial transactions.

Note also that there's a difference in third party liability insurance between the US and Europe. While In the US the person usually carries insurance, which is also valid when she, say, rents a car, this is not the case in Europe. The insurance is bound to the vehicle and not the person.

I for one, would be very, very vary to take an Uber anywhere in Europe unless the company can prove beyond a doubt that they, or the driver carries adequate insurance to cover any damages to me, or my property.
The only use I can think of is Media Production, and I'd buy one in an instant. 5K means you can have a 4k preview with stuff on the side (mixer, bin) or a 8k RED source that you crop with more than enough real estate to have a proper view of the end result. Sounds a lot better than working with a 8K stream on 2.5K. The sound guys are going to happy too: more plugins in view, and more faders in Pro Tools. Who said Apple isn't targeted at the Pro's anymore?
It's more complicated than that, insurance was a big issue in Germany. There is a mandatory minimum of 7.5 million EUR for damages to persons in Germany, the insurance offered by Uber was lower than that according to the news a while back.

There were also other issues in Germany like the mandatory health check for taxi drivers and the shorter intervals for the mandatory car maintenance for taxis.

I know people involved in the design and programming of the control software.

Specifically for the people who are asking: the control software task is custom-built and brand-new, which is a pretty distinguished feature. The testing facilities were made from scratch; the assembly system, according to the necessary standards for geosynchronous satellites which operate outside of the Earths's magnetic field which protect LEO satellites from radiation, was also new. The components, while outsourced to the few entities on the planet with the necessary know-how, were built according to the INVAP's (the agency responsible for the project) own specs.

Integrating these systems, which are not built as turn-key solutions, is still an extremely complex affair and requires a high degree of knowledge and understanding of aerospace technology. This is some very talented and skilled staff working under the guidance of domain experts.

From this link: http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2014/10/arsat-1-argentina-com...

"The desire to develop the capabilities went so far that, while the computer module was supplied by Astrium, the whole software was written from scratch by local contractors. Or, in the case of the AOCS system, the main computer, and both ACE (the Attitude Control Electronics) and TCE (Thruster Control Electronics), as well as the whole attitude control system and algorithms were developed at INVAP.

The distinction between the supplier of the off the shelf parts – and the specification, validation and integration of components and software development into a whole system – is very important. As a result, it can be considered a 100 percent INVAP product."

There's also experiments of the energy agency's custom-built solar panel technology, used for LEO satellites and now being experimented on this orbit. The plan is that this tech will continue to be developed and used for future stuff.

An interesting fact is that the reinsurance policy for the satellite is the cheapest ever for one on a geosynched orbit, which implies that the testing protocol made for this has been extremely sound, and thus the quality of the engineering.

The city of Bariloche, where much of this work was based, is also known for having the state's nuclear research and manufacturing industry, which has built and exported several commercial nuclear reactors.
If patio11 was a Scientologist, would you say the same thing? We all draw a line somewhere. If you would react to Scientology differently, remember that the Catholic church has caused (and is causing) much more harm than the Church of Scientology.

Note: I respect patio11 immensely and wish him nothing but happiness. I simply want to ensure your views are consistent.

It would be a huge feat to actually develop from scratch a reliable satellite of this scale domestically. Developing a satellite or satellites would be doable - there's a number of startups which have developed smaller satellites from scratch (although generally the people involved have experience working for the big western contractors) - but you'd need to start small and work up.

It is true that this appears to be mostly an assembly of other people's technology, but then that's true of almost every large scale system. Most aircraft makers only actually build the shell and assemble it all, the rest of the sub-systems coming from numerous suppliers.

In this case Thales Alenia Space and Airbus Defence and Space (both European companies) appear to have provided most of the satellite systems, with the system engineering level design done by INVAP. I'm not sure where it was assembled - possibly also Argentina? It's worth noting that the Systems Engineering component is no easy feat, and if they have done it then they do deserve significant credit. Ultimately no company anywhere in the world is completely vertically integrated - there will always be suppliers.
Well, my mistake then. Where is your evidence that Uber drivers in Germany are uninsured? That seems implausible.
Don't believe everything you see on TV. I don't think any of those points are true.

Social media use is definitely not forbidden at work as a rule. Not sure if there are companies that forbid it, and if that would be legal. But it is certainly not the norm.

Don't know about the bonuses.

Mortgages: many Germany buy houses, but perhaps fewer than in the UK. Renting for life is certainly common.

Childcare: what does "heavy taxation" have to do with it? Taxes are the same for everyone. There is a huge push to get mothers to work earlier by providing more childcare and so on (personally I think it's a stupid idea, but it's the sentiment the common media outlets want us to have).

Kindergarden: nature kindergardens exist, but they are rare. Most kindergardens have their own playground.

Depends on what exactly it is you want to map. From a purely genetic perspective you're right, but being a parent is certainly more than just contributing sperm/eggs. And besides - it's very hard to know if someone is indeed the biological father of a child, without resorting to dna testing. Who's the mother tends to be a bit more accurate, although that's also something that could be faked.
