Sorry - I can clarify a little. If it complies with regulations, Apple is definitely not at fault. I was just replying to the above comment which could read “a little noise from a single device isn’t a big deal.” It is definitely up to regu

There’s also a big difference between one charger emitting some noise, and a couple million in a big city raising the noise floor for the frequency.

What are the pros/cons of Ed448?

Seconded. For normal conversation, I started using PT/MT/CT/ET. I can’t ever remember if it’s daylight savings or not, and people generally understand what you mean.

My personal biggest fear is that I feel like my search history is full of curious things than can be misconstrued in court. I’ve always been fascinated by red-teaming things, and a very curious person in general. For example, I took some ad

I’m so torn on this. Your digital life is so much more than a letter. I feel like police need to be very specific with what they are allowed to access.

Thanks! This is what I was looking for.

Sure, but this was just a weird thing to hone in on.

The price of lumber also was astronomical during Covid. I think it’s somewhat logical to expect a return to a more “normal” price as economics bounce back from a somewhat unprecedented couple years of crazy economics.

They’re not even strongly sequential (is there a term for this?). The gaps between them can be arbitrarily large.

but UUIDv7 isn’t sequential (unless I’m getting it mixed up). There’s just a time-based component which can make sorting really nice & some random bits at the end. If you don’t let an attacker iterate your data, all they can tell is wh

They’re also incredibly cheap to create & don’t need knowledge of each other. I mostly see batching of IDs like this when a lock is involved to prevent collisions & maintain performance. With UUIDv7, you are reasonably sure that the

Why not? PGP has proven that it’s possible. You can certainly invent a better greenfield solution than email in 2023, but that’s not to say email doesn’t have room for improvement.

For people downvoting this comment: why?

I’m just saying is that it’s very unclear from the article.

I was just using that as an example. You are wrong about having “no known pollutants,” though. Pollutants need to be below some agreed-upon level, so they exist but in theory should be below harmful levels. There can be a perceived differen

Is there any mention of the type of wastewater? Hydrazine or human waste from starbase? There’s a big difference. It’s pretty standard to put treated wastewater back into bodies of water. I once talked to a water activist that made me reali

What about a space elevator for worms?

But in fairness they do have the option of plugging in, which is massively more efficient than gas-only. I know not everyone will do that, but lots of people will.

You’re not wrong, that’s why I prefaced it saying their services are lacking. I was just pleasantly surprised that EC2 supports it.

by pnpnp 3y ago
AWS has a way to go with their IPV6 services, but IPV6-only is very doable right now in EC2. I have a WireGuard server that was dual-stack. I turned off IPV4 to see what would happen, and it kept chugging along very nicely.

The iPad also has a lot more room for camera hardware than a MacBook. They’re a lot thicker.

I see this argument a lot, but it’s actually a pretty complex trade off. Screen size, target audience (1080p Zoom), cost, sensor size, and pixel size all come into play. You can pump numbers for the sake of it on paper, but the reality is t

For a lot of people, it’s a worthwhile risk. Starlink has historically replaced them for free if lightning strikes them (this was early in beta when I paid attention, so the policy may have changed).

I think they call that part of NATS “Jetstream” if I’m not mistaken. I haven’t used it, but I believe it has some form of message persistence. I have used it mostly for message-first services, and found subject-based messaging a breath of f

Just my 2c but for anyone unaware, you should check out NATS. It combines the best of both Kafka and RabbitMQ IMO.

I have successfully written entirely serverless APIs in Go. It’s not a great fit for everyone, but was for our use-case. Cold-starts became a non-issue compared to Java.

> ZGC, GraalVM, and Project Loom which essentially makes Java a better Go. GraalVM is still nowhere near as nice as Go when you need to compile quickly. Last time I checked, the compiler needed orders of magnitude more time and memory to

How long do they last, and how easily is a tolerance developed for steroids? I’m asking this as a chronically congested person who doesn’t like the side effects of extended release pseudoephedrine, but it works.

A hack I’ve seen people do is to mount Starlink to the top of a tall tree (and cut the very top off the tree). It has a built-in IMU, and can tolerate some ridiculous amount of sway since the phased array antenna can steer the beam so quick
