> because Amazon has a poor grasp of what data it has, where it is stored and who has access to it.

I see this more and more in companies where microservices have become prevalent but data strategy hasn't kept pace. Data gets decentralized and services end up storing data from other services, leading to duplication and shadow data that is almost impossible to maintain and control. A coherent data strategy is very important but for many companies hasn't been considered until the problem is well established and painful to overcome.
Coincidentally my home server is also named Hydra, running Nomad on CoreOS/Flatcar. I've had this setup for years now running without issue (unless I managed to mess it up myself by, for example, changing the IP and not following proper procedures to restore the Raft cluster).

Recently I deployed K3s on the same node to add some new workloads, but now that I want to move those workloads to Nomad to get rid of the cpu and memory usage of K8s. I'm running into what is becoming my main problem with Nomad that I never thought I had.

With all it's complexities, getting something to run on K8s is as simple as adding a Helm chart name to a Terraform config file and running apply. Maybe I need to set a value or volume, but that's it. Everything below is pretty much standardised.

With Nomad however, it's benefit of doing only one thing very well also means that all the other things like ingress and networking need to be figured out yourself. And since there is no standard regarding these everyone invents their own, preventing something like k8s-at-home [0] to emerge. Also K8s is pretty agnostic in container backend where Nomad needs configurations for every driver.

I think writing your own Helm charts for everything would suck more than writing the Nomad configs. Though a lot could be automatically generated for both of them. But I'm missing a community repository of sorts for Nomad.

I don't think anyone would support that, but that's not what happens -- you can see the breakdown of gross/net salary & taxes on every payslip you receive from your employer, as well as on your annual P60 https://www.gov.uk/paye-forms-p45-p60-p11d/p60

People may claim to prepare for a once a century event but since it only happens once a century it’s hard to determine if it’s actually prepared for.

Half the houses don’t even have gas heat - because it’s never been needed. What we have here is asking to a earthquake hitting the Midwest - sure it’s known it could happen and there are plans for it - but they’ve never been tested.
This is a completely bogus analogy. Even if I accepted that bitcoin was analogous to gold (hint: it's not), the government secures Ft. Knox to whatever level of security it feels appropriate, and then it's done/maintained at that level.

It's not like Russia adds one more guard to their gold vault, the US has to keep pace or else if Russia has 51% more guards outside their vault, then by magic they can suddenly steal/double-spend gold.

Do bitcoin folks really not understand this, or are they all just pretending to be blind because they hope it will make them rich?
A common question. And I didn't watch, because I usually don't want to sit through an entire linear presentation.

Is there a tool somewhere that you can make your own transcripts from the audio? Bonus if it generates periodic snapshots from the video. Bonus if you can give it timestamps that you explicitly want snapshotted.

EDIT: Bonus if you can select a section of text that didn't come over well in transcription, and play that section of audio, or that section of AV.

If this doesn't exist, there has to be someone sitting here right now on a Saturday morning, thinking "Hell yeah, I can do that!"
If I'm reading this correctly it's only an encoding problem (which seems better than generating weak keys, etc.)? What are the security implications?
No They don't need flash to do DRM. Chrome has the widevine plugin that adds DRM to html5.

User brador made a blanket statement that one was worse than the other. I agree with you: it's impossible to discuss without specifics.
I’ve been thinking about ways to use simulation to teach young and old (particularly the young) about complexity and unintended consequences, things that are not easy for most people to grasp well, but are essential for our society to escape simplistic ideologies and simplistic solutions, for all of us to have a more intelligent discourse on how to make the world better.

Such concepts are better understood or taught through interactive simulation (where the interaction is the users tweaking the settings, coefficients, equations or rules) combined with easy to grasp graphic representation of both the simulation in progress and the results.

Some of the things I’ve thought of illustrating this way:

- Game Theory. For example have a population where individual sims engage in prisoner’s dilemma repeatedly with a random other sim each time (until it runs out of money). What are the results when different portions of the sim population use different strategies? Is there a way to setup the rewards/penalties in a way that encourages the best greater good even when individuals behave selfishly?

- complex systems, positive and negative feedback, chaos, emergence, evolution

- The Mathew Effect (e.g. rich get richer, poor get poorer). The general concept of vicious/virtuous cycles.

- the notion of the Tragedy of the Commons. And also the Tragedy of No Commons.

- market economics, supply and demand, the invisible hand. when does it work and when does it not. what happens when consumers have perfect knowledge, and what happens when they have different degrees of partial knowledge?

- Cooperation vs competition, in evolution/ecosystems, economies, politics.

“Quite flawed” is wild praise for this trash.

I don’t think it’s intentionally bad but it’s still bad. In the end it’s easier to make things worse … and chloroquine could, we don’t know. So I wouldn’t touch it.
The data from the Davies paper is not very convincing. The home made solutions offered significantly less protection and and had major problems with fit. Even their conclusions were — it’s better than nothing, but not a proper substitute.

> However, these masks would provide the wearers little protection from microorgan- isms from others persons who are infected with respiratory diseases. As a result, we would not recommend the use of homemade face masks as a method of reducing transmission of infection from aerosols.
> But your language semantic model does include redefining methods on a concurrent thread. So you need to handle that.

I don't need to handle that at all if I say that "you can only redefine methods during initial startup which is defined as importing all of the necessary modules". At which point I can run my static analysis tool and it will preserve semantics.

If you're doing meta-programming by redefining methods used in other threads in one thread, then you're clearly redefining the whole idea of your programming language.

> There's no need to be abusive.

People like you (Ph.D in Ruby) have spent too much time doing their doctorate. You went down the rabbit hole of specialisation and now you think you can generalise your knowledge to everything.

I am going to disappoint you:

a. Python doesn't (practically) do multithreading

b. I think you're doing something really wrong if you're trying to do monkey-patching of methods from one thread to another (I don't care which language you're programming in)

c. Plenty of people in this thread have given links to
actual tools resolving the problem you're saying is unsolvable

d. I have an impeccably clear picture of how I am going to solve the given problem - the only reason I have asked the question is because I simply wanted to see prior work on the subject.

Yet you're forcing your opinion. Opinion which is not based on a single quote/whitepaper or a URL.

So I am not being abusive.

>

But to be even more clear: I am not trying to resolve the problem in the general case (it's pretty obvious you can't). I am trying to resolve the problem which fits 99.9% of the scenarios I have to deal with on a daily basis. And sadly there are _no_ tools for that at all.
Is this some kind of specialist flour? 1 USD per pound seems high.
$9-10/lb for ground beef is 3x what I buy it for in SF.
For ultimate economy it is possible to filter whole grains you can find at a feed company and carefully grind it into flour with automatic means. You just gotta be careful not to ruin the grain mill. I've made bread using a waffle iron. Actually english muffins can be made with a grill. Quite good fresh!
Spaghetti is also good when cooked with butter. Instead of adding the usual tablespoon of olive oil to the boiling water try butter instead.

Cacio e Pepe is another easy enough recipe that one can make without needing an excess of ingredients, it’s in the name :)

A lot of things for sale can kill you. People need to take responsibility for decisions rather than live in a bubble of ignorance.

Simply drinking too much water can kill you. From drowning if I recall. The real issue is common sense is now uncommon.

As a doctor friend said to me years ago, everything can kill you given the wrong dose. Tonic water could have a warning if thats a real concern but honestly if you're drinking huge bottles of it you're likely trying to qualify for a Darwin award after some point. I've heard anecdotes of people drinking litres of the stuff. Multiple bottles.

Be aware that a lot of the coronavirus tests are questionable anyway due to them being faulty or worse don't work. Yet another vector for uncertainty.

Good luck with your journey.
I was reading a distinction between recognising parts of a string, and changing parts. Such that I can't remember the last time I modified a string. I can think of plenty of times I took one apart and used a piece of it. Usually well structured to avoid the corner cases. Or, again, forced into a madlibs style structure to present to the user.

But yeah, looking for palindromes is a thing I can't recall ever having done. A prefix tree for searches? Done, but that didn't need well formed text/strings for it to work.

Yes, a unedited quote would be useful. But I did find one corroboration that I think elevates this above "fake news" status. On the St Louis Fed's website, there's a list of James Bullard's media interviews. At the top is this article with the "30%" figure in the title:
https://www.stlouisfed.org/from-the-president/media-intervie.... While it's possible that was just an intern who scans the news and adds things, this certainly makes it seem like Bullard officially endorses the 30% number.
I started jogging recently for exactly this reason. (Usually, I just walk.)

Over 90% of public roads service drunk drivers, drug dealers and most known and unknown criminals.

All users of such roads should be searchable at any given moment.
Wise and mature tech person: "Here's what you can do to mitigate it." (Gives some helpful advice).
More US roads have shoulders, yes, but in much of America you just don’t have the dense network of quiet paved roads that covers most of Britain. Safe road cycling in Britain is very possible, it’s just that you need to put some thought into route-planning rather than just riding the same roads you’d drive.
I wonder if studying those books in such a short time only helped him to get through the interview process or actually helped him with his daily work at Facebook?
There's a notion being presented that having access to physical offices is somehow tantamount to having access to a SCIF. That is the misinformation/hyperbole/fake news part. If you post on Twitter and your tweet goes viral, it is now news.

Those networks will assuredly have to be rebuilt from the ground up. He's definitely right on a number of things but fueling speculation like this, especially when it's already been acknowledged the SCIFs were not breached, is equally dangerous.

This stuff is a matter of open record: https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/23/politics/what-is-a-scif/index...
It's not really Bye Bye whatsapp if you aren't using it now?

Actually, I'm exposing all the internal settings, precisely because color blindness is more of a spectrum disorder than something you either have or don't have.

It's fairly rare to find someone who the second image doesn't massively help, so it'd be really cool if you could play with the hard settings. Also, HueWindow is pretty much guaranteed to work if you can see at all.
Right at the top of:

https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&c...

you have:

"You may not use the PayPal service for activities that:"

"relate to sales of [...] (e) items that are considered obscene [...] (g) certain sexually oriented materials or services"

I work on (amongst other things) a gay online discussion group/social network. A lot of what's discussed on there would probably be considered obscene by the population at large, and is certainly sexually orientated in many cases.

I suspect your site is similar. Care to post a link to it?

eg, Someone saying "Gay phone sex is great!" is probably ok. Someone saying "I just had a gay phone sex call where they said they'd do [x] to my [y] while swinging from the [z]" may not be.
That's almost reason to get a smart phone just by itself.... but I'm going to wait for the DNA hack (http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/09/colortherapy/). I don't want to have to remember to point a phone at something to distinguish colors; I want to upgrade my damn retinas.
Ebay is the sole reason I still use paypal as a consumer. It seems very hard or impossible to buy things on ebay without having a paypal account.
What steps can one best take to get their domain portfolio out of reach of US authorities?

All my domains are at Godaddy (with private registration) right now. (Nothing involving sharing of IP products, but I fear this slippery slope won't end well.)
I was surprised that the article didn't comment on the wording of the slogan in the PayPal button. The words 'safer' and 'easier' are comparative adjectives; they create an implied recommendation for PayPal against other options, which are both less safe and less easy. The other buttons don't acknowledge other options -- rather, they merely emphasize speed: 'now' and 'fast'.

If you were a naive online shopper presented with multiple payment options at checkout, with no other information to guide you, you very well might choose the one that is labeled 'safer' and 'easier'.

(And it's worth pointing out that many people don't have a clear idea of what's going on when they click on any of the buttons. It's perfectly plausible that people will parse the PayPal slogan as a recommendation. Think of the infamous Facebook/ReadWriteWeb login incident.)
Really sad to see this idea, and even more to see it upvoted.

It's obvious the account wasn't shutdown due to 'gay rights'.

This is like an incompetent woman who was sacked suing for sexual discrimination.
I don't get this... I have a 90dpi monitor and subpixel antialiasing on Linux is beautiful.

I should also point out that antialiasing (and subpixel rendering in particular) is designed for low pixel densities. High pixel density monitors do not need antialiasing. (This is why printed font rasterizers such as Metafont do not perform antialiasing.)
To add to this, the AMD OpenGL windows drivers are notoriously bad, whereas the Linux OpenGL drivers perform closer to DirectX. Performance on that end is significantly ahead.
Sure I could but then you'd just point out exactly why that looks wrong to you, since that seems to be what you'd like to do, so what would be the point?

It only works when you're actually ready to listen. That's not my problem. You get ready to learn on your own time. If you're resisting there's no point trying to put it in front of you so you see, since you'll just pretend you don't see. Cherished mistaken assumptions protection and all. Okay?
I don't want to dismiss this out of hand, but what does it do that the Excel Solver doesn't? Excel, LibreOffice Calc etc. are very comprehensive tools, that include a lot of stuff beyond the basics everyone is familiar with.
> good practical reasons

The only reasoning I have seen on this subject so far has been "people are special" or "God made me". Sometimes the arguments are dressed up more. Do you have a good source that has a different type of reasoning?

Edit:

> You can only test for the appearance of subjective experience

Yes, and we solve this in people by assuming that if they sound, act and look like a person they are a person. I've never seen a compelling argument why it is somehow wrong to apply this principle to everything else, except of course the huge trouble philosophers go to to then argue what exactly needs to be looked at before we are satisfied. For some reason the Turing test is not adequate, but to my mind it's only not accurate if you believe that you are somehow special and that there is more to you than what can be observed.

I was going to say the same thing, only in the form of "Duh". Also in the news today, the sky is blue, grass is green, and fire is hot. How in 2019 would any developer believe that any social platform cares about privacy is beyond me. If a social platform is offering anything (the platform itself, SDKs, APIs, etc) for free, then they are going to make money from you some other way. What ever they are offering cost them money to develop, but they did not do that as a charity. This maybe a bit preaching to the choir, but that's how you get the choir to sing. Plus, maybe someone new reads this.
As I understand it (and I'm not a Go expert), but panic/recover is not idiomatic Go, and they much prefer the style of using a second return parameter for errors. defer is just a useful syntactic construct that becomes complicated when you add in exceptions (but no more so than calling the destructors in C++ stack unwinding).
Great Lakes has a lot of hype but I like Spacca Napoli personally.
The chart for the weekend specifically has just a few red points, which has shifted the range. Removing them would make the range better, but that's not really worth the time.

What do you mean by this? Are you normalizing before coloring? If so, don't. You said the colors were for <100, 100-200, 200< and I'm holding you to it.

As for the interpolation, I think you're sampling at least hourly, so why didn't you just store all times at each scrape and match the >60min ones with those?
Pretty much means unless something is instantly interesting to people it will fade into obscurity quickly. It's a tough balance, the main thing that gets missed a fair bit is ask hn posts where only a small amount of the community would be able to chime in on, if those people aren't around at the time they will never see it.
It may be beyond your level of interest to try, but I've often experienced that sites who put dumb validation rules in the browser will therefore omit the validation on the server. Thus, you're one well crafted curl request away from unsubscription bliss. Chrome will also give you some help in that its network request list in the developer tools has a "copy as curl" in the right-click menu.

Exactly.

A close friend of mine had horrible dental hygiene, rarely brushing, drank soda and beer as his water, and only went to the dentist after developing intolerable pain something like a decade into this mode.

Big tech is so desperate to score points with the new administration as soon as Trumpism is in its death throes (hopefully). As much as I hate the content on things like Parker, this makes me sick.
