Bellovin's Governments and Cryptography: The Crypto Wars is the most grand & sweeping review of governments & encryption across time that I've seen! https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-farrell

So weird & wild. Do we have guesses what the motives are here?

Uhhh I feel like rocket makers are obsessed with efficiency. A modest half a percent makes a huge difference in fuel fraction & lift capabilities. Rockets may be broadly inefficient but they are as efficient as we can make them.

Really hoping we start to see 100Gbit/25Gbit start getting more available/affordable on ebay, for the servethehome crowd in particular.

For sake of argument let's say the US military is a fine institution & let's say corporations making a profit supporting it is fine. But my god, the inefficiency & fleecing being done by corporations is ghastly. It's

It's also notable that Intel keeps getting faster. The other folks have been tuning their drivers for decades & Intel, with a brand new chip, has been making their current two cards significantly faster since launch.

> If power and efficiency issues are resolved, My gut feel is that this is a pretty grossly inefficient system by nature. Inducing current in seawater just to give magnetic traction something to push off against seems semi absurd.

Very interesting stuff with on-switch processing already. Super smart.

Not enough, but there were so many sad grim outlooks yesterday in the Greenland iceloss melt submission. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36057052 This is some real & significant counter-balance. You can't have

I agree there is a really sad anti-hobbyist bias. The FAA are criminal in holding back anything other than incredibly big industry, but I still tend to think it's mostly negligence & scale, that they have real concerns at scale to

The grandstanding on being a poor oppressed victim, being treated as bad as the worst political prisoners in history, is really something. And the judge telling him to wrap it up!

Shout out to @floydnoel for citing this yesterday in the F-35 Malpractice submission. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36056584 Very apt then, & what a crazy topic! How the government has payed a ton of money to d

Great great article. We have all kinds of rituals/meetings to do this. Work had a fairly good Friday end of day demo day with optional beers in hand that was OK. But we kept doing it pandemic & it's been dreadful. No one wants

Have any of the other implementations gotten traction? Last I checked in Synapse or whatever seemed like it had been backburnered.

It's weird to me what a splash this had at the time. I'm kind of forgetting what the essential adds are versus existing ring buffer systems? Iirc mainly it's that rather than there being a producer/consumer role, there c

Asus might not have a better chance but I feel like Steam has the best chance of all. What would Sony'd competitive advantage be, creating their own non-PC system?

This is a willldddd take, that deeply mischaracterizes the EFF. There's a ton of places where EFF & Big Tech don't line up. Glomming them together & saying they all are trying to wreck content creators is a severe misdeed.

Bunch of interesting loosenings ups on logical replication. Allowing standbys to also have subscribers; great for fan out! Bunch of perf improvements (honestly a bunch of it is removing rather onerous limitations I didn't know about!)

Seems like a good way to select. The dating pool may be small but it'd be epic. One of the Project Eddystone things I wanted to build was a dating profile. Literally showing up as a notification on people's phones. More as a demon

The Brilliant Pebbles work supposedly was going to need at least 400 missile satellites to work. That alone seems like a significant coordination problem, especially for the time. And it relied on very early detection & interception.
