@futurebird Apollo 7 could be seen as a precursor to that (no explicit strike, but refusal to do things ground control wanted done).
The sense it seems to make is that it will work with an ~arbitrarily shitty Internet connection.
Czy można gdzieś przeczytać dokładniejszą formę tych założeń? (Jestem ciekaw np. dokładniejszej definicji osoby, o której pozyskuje się dane -- ciekaw jestem np. kto byłby takową osobą w przypadku gdy służby szukały właścicieli telefonów obecnych w jakichś dwu miejscach, lub obecnych w jednym a nie w drugim.)
I am very surprised by retention of case files of any kind that's shorter than the time the accused are imprisoned for.
@niconiconi Or 4 lines to write a function, 10 lines to explain its nonstandard calling convention (e.g. passing values via flags) which saves on code size.
I think this is similar to considering murder worse than an action that will on average increase the amount of early deaths by 1 (e.g. emitting some amount of dust).
My intuition in both situations is that the reason is that murder/genocide can be used for coercion in a great multitude of ways.
@PedroGonnet Or don't care?
@whitequark I wonder whether _this_ constitutes a crime.
@25kV Where does 200kV come from?
@25kV Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. I meant a car that provides electrical power but no traction, so that an electrical locomotive can provide traction.
But fair point re swaps being time-consuming, so this probably makes such an approach useless.
This made me wonder whether there are any diesel bimodal trains where the diesel engine is a separate car (i.e. there's a separate car that contains the diesel engine and generator but without traction motors), so that you can do swap them out and have unsynchronized maintenance windows on them. Do you know of any such?
@dunkelstern If there was a dm-throttle, it would also throttle everything the fs driver would be doing in its own name (and any kernel thread in general).
@dunkelstern Hm~ I thought that devicemapper had an interposer that does that, but now I can only find dm-delay which isn't helpful here.
@dunkelstern Can't you rate limit the block devices of disks instead?
@rq Ah, I'm being silly: there, a MAC is sufficient.
@rq Hm~ I would expect that short-input hash functions are useful for key derivation (not from low entropy something, but when you have key K and want to generate various keys from K that are "unrelated" to anyone who doesn't know K; there's a more specific name for it and a contract-and-expand construction that does that that has an rfc that i can't recall the name of right now).
@mjg59 if you can mount something above the water, ultrasonic distance meter will work (and this is actually a pretty common setup in reality)
I enjoy things around information theory (and data compression), complexity theory (and cryptography), read hard scifi, currently work on weird ML (we'll see how it goes), am somewhat literal minded and have approximate knowledge of random things. I like when statements have truth values, and when things can be described simply (which is not exactly the same as shortly) and yet have interesting properties.
I live in the largest city of Switzerland (and yet have cow and sheep pastures and a swimmable lake within a few hundred meters of my place :)). I speak Polish, English, German, and can understand simple Swiss German and French.
If in doubt, please err on the side of being direct with me. I very much appreciate when people tell me that I'm being inaccurate. I think that satisfying people's curiosity is the most important thing I could be doing (and usually enjoy doing it). I am normally terse in my writing and would appreciate requests to verbosify.
I appreciate it if my grammar or style is corrected (in any of the languages I use here).
