When I saw your initial comment I figured this was the tome. It's outstanding. I got onto it after hearing an interview with Richard White. He's opinionated and some of the opinions are very insightful.

In the interview he said that there's no such thing as cycles in history (pace Spengler). Instead there are unresolved issues that keep bubbling up over generations. That completely describes America's problems with racism, starting with the original sin of slavery. States rights is another example. The gilded age illustrates many others.

I was sold on the book based on that 30 seconds of the interview alone.

The IDF is more specialized in counterterrorism than the US military, but that's because counterterrorism is 70-80% of the IDF's mission--the other 20-30% being defense against comparatively feeble Arab armies. The IDF also only has to defend itself.

The US military has much, much wider requirements--it has obligations to South Korea, Japan, NATO, and the entire Western hemisphere, which demand a strong conventional warfighting ability.

As with all things in life, there are tradeoffs.

1. Fire hazard can be higher, depending on cooling fluid.

2. OHS regulations to do with handling the cooling fluid.

3. Congratulations, you are now a plumber!

4. No more hot-swapping of components.

5. You may need exotic parts that don't break in the cooling fluid.

6. Custom equipment may be very expensive.

7. What happens if you can't get another batch of cooling fluid?

Liquid-cooled systems, including full immersion, are not new -- I believe the Cray-2 was the first system to do this and it was maintenance nightmare.

This looks interesting, but not sure it will do what I need - which is having Rails re-route requests to index.html or root_path based on if they are logged in or not...or am I missing something ?
Great article. Some off-topic nitpicking: is that obnoxious position:fixed bar at the bottom really necessary? I mean, doesn't the article start out with emphasizing the importance of user experience?

Nobody has really publicly talked about it, but there is now code in the Notchian and CraftBukkit servers to limit connections from single IPs to once every 5 seconds, and to disconnect slow logins by killing the thread after 30 seconds, effectively limiting the attack to 6 threads used per attacker. To actually bring down a server this way would then take 100 attackers or so.

This really is just a proof of concept, after all, and not a tool which can bring down entire servers single-handedly. (At least, not anymore.)
The thrust of my argument is merely that one thread for every connection is bad. (Minecraft happens to use two per connection, but that doesn't change the fundamental argument.)

You are correct that the problem is not directly due to thread resource usage, but to the additional resources attached to each thread. I was able to raise the heap size, but not able to get past around 600 connections on my 32-bit x86 machine.

NIO/MINA is the right answer on Java. If you are using Erlang, well, I would suppose you would not need a Java-based solution. :3
We help develop software for a few "traditional" industries that have mostly had installed thick client apps (or mainframe) stuff to date. These applications are now seeing benefits of becoming web applications beyond simpler collaboration suites-> light, mobile and distributed. The advent of development frameworks, agile & TDD driven processes have reduced costs that 5 years ago would have put custom enterprise apps in the several million dollar range. I used to work with a "player" in the "middleware" market which was thriving 5 yrs ago and now only belongs to a few of the big guns.

The extent of command & control experience has been limited, as there are more hesitations with security and less node-based infrastructure, but things have been continually shifting. This market does still command top dollar to the consulting companies, but the SaaS model is doing quite well for new entrants. OPOWER.com comes to mind with energy-savings modules and reporting for consumers and utilties.

Notably, with the advent of lightweight web-enabled control "kits" (arduino for example), we're seeing more and more of this especially in the last 24 months. I'm excited to be in this field and hope that we have a chance to pickup a project or two incorporating more control interfaces in our work.

I haven't looked very hard at the Google stuff (thanks for pointing it out because now it's on my radar) but if it's open source I'm hoping it's designed in such a way that one could make a login_google that works similarly to login_duo, which looks to me from the blog post to require authentication and then exec your login shell upon success.

This is a pretty interesting article [1]. Out of GitHub, SourceForge, CodePlex and the Apache Foundation, SourceForge is largely GPL but the rest largely are not.

According to Wikipedia, SourceForge hosts about 300,000 projects, and GitHub has 10 million as of December 2013.

I still have pretty strong confidence that the majority of open source projects are not GPL'd.

Pike is one of my favorite languages, but I've hardly used it. It's dear to me to me for purely sentimental reasons. As the article briefly mentions, Pike is the spiritual successor to LPC, a pretty unique language from the late 80s/early 90s used to extend LPMUDs and write areas, items, mobs, etc. I'd dabbled in programming before, but LPC was the first language I used to write real code shipped to production on a MUD called Aldebaran [1], with a user base in the hundreds (felt huge at the time :-)), circa 2001.

I remember very quickly losing interest in playing Aldebaran when I saw how the so-called "wizards" (programmers) could manipulate the world around them with code [2]. I decided almost right away that I would play exactly enough to fulfill the bare minimum requirements to apply to become a wizard and harass the administrators until they let me have a trial run. A few weeks later, the admins relented, and I haven't stopped coding since.

[1]: http://aldebaran.mud.de/

[2]: Looking back, Aldebaran to the wizard was an almost Emacs-like interactive environment. You could create and manipulate items on the fly by cloning a blueprint and, using a special wizard's staff, evaluate code directly on that item without changing any files. And like Emacs, the text editor it came with (an ed clone) was terrible :-)

In Montreal, the really really great people at Borealis [0] made it extremely easy. I sent them a 300 DPI file by email, and they printed negatives from those files in a few days. Each negative cost about $8 to print.

Finding a lab that did this online was pretty difficult at the time. If others have recommendations -- please chime in! Otherwise, I would strongly recommend considering Borealis (who I'm sure can ship the negatives by mail -- otherwise reach out and I can facilitate the mailing as I live here ha)

Since the early 2000's most cars have been using a drive-by-wire system for steering. They aren't exposed on OBD2 though, that's just for legacy emissions. Most are on a CAN bus but there isn't some big standard to control them all--it's very much a manufacturer by manufacturer thing right now.
I'm curious as to how this happens - are app comms not SSL ?

I never gave it much thought but I assumed that, like the adoption of SSL everywhere for websites, all apps spoke only SSL ... does the app store not enforce this ?

your job search is well above average from my point of view. you seem to be quite successful, and those numbers are great.
Your case isn't rested at all given most businesses in the United States aren't in a position to do business globally without heavily escalated logistical or infrastructural cost expansion due to physical goods or services (body in seat) as their product. Whereas Silicon Valley companies often only have to ensure that their information processing infrastructure expand to meet the capability to track/handle transactional load in order to have global consumer bases to pull from, thus allowing that several times higher wage financially. The digital expansion scales far easier than the physical.

Those wages therefore aren't some quirk of the unregulated free market. That was physics. More income sources = more income extraction = higher geographic pool to fuel competitive salary while earning a profit. Yet you still have to answer for wage suppressive collusion. Despite having everything going right for them, they still colluded.
The reviews of the book on Amazon are both more succinct and better, I think, than this long-winded article:

The configuration you're describing was never officially supported - I'm not arguing the changes in this support is a good or bad thing just addressing the concern Nvidia might be trying to sneak something super-important past people in release notes and thus the editorializing should perhaps get a pass.
Is that a freudian typo?
I don't think you know what the word "fiat" means. Crypto is fiat currency. It's backed by nothing but wasted electricity and a lucky guess. You can't trade it in for anything of value.
Anybody knows how to apply to one of those funds?
That's wrong then. The word "soviet" means "council".. To the extent that its etymology connects to "togetherness" it just refers to the group of people coming together to make decisions.

The "union" refers to the union of the socialist republics. You can easily have "soviets" without a union, and you can obviously have a union without soviets.

Wow, this is a question that is impossible to answer directly! But failure is a very good topic for discussion. Here are my thoughts: Failure is a precursor to learning. So generally speaking, the more you know, the more you have failed. Success is defined by goal achievement. Success is not directly dependent on knowledge, but it helps. Given this logic, success is only partially a function of failure, and therefore not directly related to the number of failures.
It's honestly too simple, more work has to be done to get it to be actually useful and scalable.
That's a good question. I'm not sure I have a patron but I'll have to think about it more.

Your second point could be true.

There was New Hive. That's one of our inspirations. I am not sure how many people have used that..
I believe founders/companies can and do "cause broad negative economic impacts for their own enrichment", but creating a lower-cost path to the same good/result is a good thing fundamentally. Yes, this can cause greater income/life-experience inequality, and we should adjust for that, but in ways that do not punish innovation. In short, we should optimize for human happiness by better sharing the wealth rather than by limiting it.
I wonder if there are any legal concerns with using the voices of well known characters/actors like this in a commercial context.
I don't recall how long it lasted. I don't remember it to be a problem though.

Also, I asked my mother to sew me a inner-pocket? in my jeans-jacket for it, so I could carry it around.

> Besides — vim really shouldn't be used on log files. It's editor, not viewer.

I think the two concerns I stated are probably legit, but this one is boring to me. Vim is nicer than less for reading files. I have more navigation commands. I can yank part of the file and save it somewhere else. I can pipe a range of lines through awk/etc. I can switch between files. I can split my screen. Etc. Some of these are probably available in less too (more than more(1) supported in 2001), but I doubt all, and I already know the commands in vim. I'm interested in not clobbering my logs and not crashing the server, but if you tell me vim is an editor not a viewer, I'll ask Why?

Btw re-reading my words I don't mean to sound combative. But the point of my original question was to understand. I've been cargo-culting "use less for logs" for 14 years already.
I think this is a great idea and have some folks that I am going to try this on.

I like the four stages of competence (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_stages_of_competence) which reads:

1. Unconscious incompetence
The individual does not understand or know how to do something and does not necessarily recognize the deficit. They may deny the usefulness of the skill. The individual must recognize their own incompetence, and the value of the new skill, before moving on to the next stage. The length of time an individual spends in this stage depends on the strength of the stimulus to learn.[5]

2. Conscious incompetence
Though the individual does not understand or know how to do something, they recognize the deficit, as well as the value of a new skill in addressing the deficit. The making of mistakes can be integral to the learning process at this stage.

3. Conscious competence
The individual understands or knows how to do something. However, demonstrating the skill or knowledge requires concentration. It may be broken down into steps, and there is heavy conscious involvement in executing the new skill.[5]

4. Unconscious competence
The individual has had so much practice with a skill that it has become "second nature" and can be performed easily. As a result, the skill can be performed while executing another task. The individual may be able to teach it to others, depending upon how and when it was learned.

The fact that so-called Arabic numerals are written left-to-right is perhaps evidence that the Arabic numerals were invented in India and are called Arabic in Europe only because Europeans learnt about them from the Arabs.

No OP, but most of Dell's current lineup no longer has support for any other modes in the firmware. So no, I can't disable it.
that's not the kind of option the article is talking about -- the long options are generally english words, and there is a limited set of them. Date uses two dashes for them -- like "--utc" and "--set". They won't work with +

Your example is a format string. date needed to tell if the positional argument is a format or a new date, and to make it easy, they decided to prefix the format with a special character. I am going to guess that this character should not be - (to avoid confusion with options), or numeric (to avoid confusion with new date), not have special meaning in common shells (to keep quoting simpler). They could have chosen : or ^ for example.

It annoys me to no end that boomers sent all of our manufacturing overseas to make a quick buck and then turned around and criticized the “globalism” of the economy that they created, so yes. I gladly would pay a little more for quality, domestically produced goods. Technology has progressed far enough that the costs would be minimal in most cases.
Do any of the ORY products provide a UI? From what I've seen of Kratos, you have to completely implement all HTML output yourself. Is that accurate? Is there some drop-in UI in the ORY ecosystem?
Consumer neurotech doesn't need to start with Neuralink. Products like Halo (https://www.haloneuro.com/) are stimulating your brain to improve muscle memory, Muse (https://choosemuse.com) is using neurofeedback to improve meditation (and they're getting into sleep tracking).

At SoundMind (https://SoundMind.co), we're building a headband which monitors your sleep state and uses sound (auditory stimulation) to improve your sleep.

Commercial tCDS is a real thing for treatment of depression. There are multiple consumer tCDS devices on the market as well, I won't link to them, because I haven't seen any that I don't believe are snake oil. But the commercial scale devices will get shrunk down to consumer usable size eventually.

This is just the beginning. Consumer neurotech shouldn't mean implanted, just as sight correction doesn't mean lasik (just wear glasses).

I think this skeptic is perhaps too focused on the technology, rather than the use case.

I'm not sure if we'll ever willingly get an neural implant, but let's not throw all of neurotech to mean that small segment of the market.
I’d argue that if you’re using an ncurses based UI, you no longer have a command line interface, and you’re not scriptable anymore. Which is fine of course, but what you really have at that point is a rather ugly and limited GUI...
