I’m not racist, I’m just biased against people with dark skin?

That story was flagged, what a sad state of the industry. It’s no wonder we have terrible racist tools when we aren’t even able to acknowledge it.

30,000 plus people are killed on American roads every year. Drivers killed more people in September 2001 than terrorists. How many end up in jail?

> successful crewed space program in only 2003, and now on their trajectory to have a permanent space station in 2022 - only 19 years later Russia put a man in space in 1961, and Mir was 25 years later (following several Salyut stations)

I’m glad that was picked out. So subtle yet actually maybe exclaim out loud in this hotel lobby. I have a mask on and there are very few here so hopefully I haven’t endangered anyone, but something so sublime deserves an applause.

Us politics has major effects on world economies and power balance. No country is an island - even the ones that literally are, but the US especially so. Even the US civil war had long reaching effects on other countries - and were far more

Doing 130kph or even 150 on a motorway is fine. Those are safe roads. Dropping urban speed limits to 25kph makes sense. It might make short trips a few minutes longer, but long trips shorter.

I’ve got a Skoda Fabia, can’t get three car seats in the back, nor two and an adult, so assuming a kid every 2 years you need something bigger for most of a decade. An Octavia might do

Looking at 90%ile total income tax in UK it’s about the same as 90%ile in a typical US state, but you get comprehensive health care in UK

There was a comment a few weeks ago about someone saying how money doesn’t matter - his family doesn’t care if his networth aged 40 was $2m or $20m. Many people on HN, after a decade or so of amazon salaries, seem to have no concept of the

New Zealand often complain they are left off maps of the world (it happens more than you think). I do wonder if NZ maps leave off other countries (say the UK) in response.

20 years ago my student tv station had online videos, including live stuff. You use a platform, that’s on you. It’s never been cheaper or easier to run a website, make videos, and host them.

SSL externally points to 123.45.67.8 Your internal DNS responds on 10.20.30.40 SSL very works fine as it validates Mail.mycorp.com, not the IP This fails as DoH becomes more common and your dhcp server saying “use dns 10.1.1.1” is ignored,

A single district electing say 20 people via a single transferable vote would be far more representive. The problem isn’t district boundaries, it’s first past the post.

I use the end of my key to push buttons. A shoulder shove works for pushing doors. If I have to pull occasionally I use my T-shirt to get a grip. If it were a major problem I’d use a glove.

Even ignoring peering, I’m still trying to picture the non blocking network. An Arista 7368X4 isn’t cheap, but will cope with 12,000 customers with appropriate switches downstream (128x100G ports with each port breaking out to 96 customers.

Bandwidth to where? Do they really have 1gbit per customer peering with say level3? And with cogent, and telia? And a full non blocking internal network? And enough packet buffers to ensure that microbursts don’t saturate any link?
