I was wondering whether they paid attention to that. There's definitely different behaviour depending on the ghosts (red always follows you)
Got a source for that? According to Wikipedia, 340F is not far from the melting point for solder. Depending on the solder used, it may have melted, or just gotten soft enough to heal any gaps or cracks.

Personally and professionally, I have had a great experience with Datadog (https://www.datadoghq.com/) - plenty of integrations with various services, providers and a useable interface.

Prior to DD, I used ServerDensity (https://www.serverdensity.com/) - also a very mature tool and the technical blog written by their founder (https://blog.serverdensity.com/) has interesting tidbits from time to time.

I'm sure someone else will mention New Relic, too - great tool, but more expensive than the other two (though well worth it, if you need it)
Who is this guy? I was under the impression this was the author of dtrace due to the domain name. That seems wrong, he's not listed as a dtrace author on wikipedia.
he's just rage quitting on his last day of work. see the next post on that site, where pike is called a "world-class jackass" and Plan 9 "a colossal failure".

referring to anything Plan 9 as "colossal" is a new one, i admit :)

Hey HN mods: seems the dupe detector is treating http and https as different links.
If your overactive immune system results in worsening Crohn's symptoms, then fasting would improve your symptoms (by reducing the immune system temporarily + the benefit of no irritants in the digestive system). When the immune system returns to a "normal" (or normal-for-you) state afterwards, you also have irritants back in your digestive system, making it impossible to separate.

The question is: do your Crohn's symptoms improve concurrently with the duration of the fast, extend beyond it, or track as expected with the presence of food in your digestive system?

I guess where I'm going is that there may be two variables at play that can't be easily separated in the case of Crohn's.
You are just one data point.

I've always though that heavy metals mean stuff like uranium and lead...
I read that before I posted the quote. I think it's worth reading, so I'm glad you posted it.

I'm not trying to prove Krugman is bad with the quote; I simply added it because I find it amusing.

His excuse says: "I was writing in print about something I'm not an expert in, and I wasn't being serious anyway." Fine. That is how I would interpret things even without the excuse. It still says something about Krugman, but no, the quote is not overly damning by itself. (Krugman's entire body of non-academic work, on the other hand....)
The owners are obliged to leave a path open so the public can access the beach.

Can you be held liable in Brazil for things that happen on your property? For example, if somebody hurts themselves on the path, can they then sue you?
good PR?

Not everything has to be directly linked to selling ads, Google is a group of people. Some companies plant trees, Google has this, I guess.
ok what is a lyft line? is that some other type of lyft?
I really enjoyed this article. The grass is always greener, and I get that, but man that sounds like a great way to spend your day! Personally, my daily grind is aimed at one day having a daily grind like this.

I loved the emphasis on family and balance. Timely article for me, I guess.
Our internet ticket/support site is built in CF. We can never get enhancements or bugs fixed. We're just told that we don't have any cold fusion devs any longer, etc... Instead of getting some things fixed up, unfortunately we're moving to a salesforce system.
If a private individual wanted to produce and experiment (let's say on pet animals) with that extension-RNA, what would be required?
Some of the more exciting ideas I've seen recently:

http://arxiv.org/abs/1310.3314 - Understanding the core difficulty in answering relational queries and examples of problems for which current query optimisers always produce plans which are asymptotically suboptimal

http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.0703 - The first theoretical analysis which can relate the choice of indexes to worst-case bounds. Presents a single join algorithm which is asymptotically optimal on every problem without even using cardinality estimates.

http://arxiv.org/abs/1210.0481 - A join algorithm that meets some of the bounds of the above paper and is also fast in practice and can be incrementally maintained.

https://infosys.uni-saarland.de/projects/octopusdb.php - Treating index creation, query optimising, view materialisation, incremental maintenance etc as one large optimisation problem.

http://www.vldb.org/pvldb/vol4/p539-neumann.pdf - Compiling query plans to LLVM because the query plans / indexes are good enough to make the plan cpu-bound instead of memory-bound

http://hyper-db.de/HyperTechReport.pdf - Running OLAP and OLTP workloads on the same database without interference

It seems possible that in the future, far from having a Cambrian explosion of specialised databases, we will be able to store everything in a single db and treat questions of data layout, partitioning, indexing etc as a direct optimisation problem.
Sorry I didn't see that one. Thanks for posting!
Do the founders get the equity in the meantime before the future "stripes" are granted? e.g, let's say after two rounds of 10% employee equity, the company gets acquired, leaving 30% that had been set aside for future rounds of employee equity, but never granted. I'm assuming the founders would split the remaining 30%? Curious if anyone had insight into why this would not be the case.
And small businesses will continue to do well. Small businesses have the advantage of agility - they can react to market changes quicker, they have more freedom to experiment, and they can tailor the experience of whatever they're offering to local markets.

Small businesses are also important for job creation: http://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/061.nsf/eng/02806.html

Well, at the very minimum, the recent firings/resignations certainly seem... correlated to him.
Thanks for the kind words :)

I'm not really sure what to work on next. I was focussed on arms control for cyberweapons for a while, and I made some real progress, but I want to work on something new now. Maybe finding a way to scale up good things like trust or good will? I want to find something where I'm making the world a better place but also working on something that makes me smile. Trying to fight weapon dispersion is exhausting and discouraging and, ultimately, as I learned, futile.
Thanks, I flagged it, as it mislead me.

I still haven't seen any improvement in AI ethics, even if the article tries to suggest it: we're getting much better models without any guarantees that they won't be misused to gain control of the world. Finding model bias is the easy part, as data is always biased.
Similarly dissapointed but looking at Signal's past choices (barely open source server, no plans to federate, aggression against modified clients, extensive use and lack of criticism for SGX) monero wasn't even on the table.
There's the GAO. They don't get much publicity or power.
Well, and the COBOL is also likely running in an ecosystem with similar skill shortages. AS/400, or z/OS, MPE, etc.
Things like file transfer, message queues, backups, batch jobs, os specific file formats,and so on won't be in COBOL. They will be in various different proprietary setups.
And a look at Urban Dictionary seems like a pretty recent piece of slang. Honestly I t’s not like -oard is extra lengthy syllables or there’s an industry that uses this term. It’s very cringe-y web-2.0-like name but maybe that’s hip?

Why would it be “keeb” and not “keyb”. Is it pronounced liked “jeeb”?
I don't know what the university courses entailed. I'm basing "genius" on my knowledge of the current Computer Science curriculum. If you were doing CS courses at age 11 I do think you must have genius level intelligence.

If it was more practically-orientated, then I agree with you :).

look at my previous post; this is actually a good bit more expensive than 32gib ram/8 core opteron pizza boxes.

People keep telling me that margins are low in this industry. I mean, my prices are dramatically lower than others, and I imagine my my internal processes are rather a lot less efficient than the competition (we provision by hand, for example) also, we're not nearly at scale; I mean, we have 4 full racks and maybe 15Kw of power capacity total- I'm not making a lot of money, but I'm afloat on 1/2 the revenue and higher internal costs.

I mean, if you'll pay my bills, I'll pretty much do it for fun, so I'd expect my margins to be lower than most, but considering the price differences, some people must be making some serious coin.
> Is that supposed to be better?

I don't have an opinion about whether it's better. I just know it's accurate, unlike the parent's comment.
It's great that you know that, but unfortunately most of the world does not.
Why would such a mechanism of control incentivize those that feel sick to report their symptoms? Why would one submit to control at this level?

This sound similar to ankle-bracelet-level Parole / house arrest structures. In fact, I'd prefer that because it would only be providing a single source of sensor data to the government instead of possibly making my entire phone and location history accessible.
True, I should have said that differently, something more like "introduced to humanity from a lab sample". Important distinction, not least because way more likely to be possible given current technology. Valid point.
You may be interested in this: "In almost every instance, senators appear to be considerably more responsive to the opinions of affluent constituents than to the opinions of middle-class constituents, while the opinions of constituents in the bottom third of the income distribution have no apparent statistical effect on their senators’ roll call votes. Disparities in representation are especially pronounced for Republican senators, who were more than twice as responsive as Democratic senators to the ideological views of affluent constituents."

There is much more to HTTPS than just ciphers and HSTS, i would personally use the following rating.

1 None - No HTTPS Support/Invalid certificate/Broken or vulnerable cipher or protocols (POODLE, SSLv2 etc'.) Cookies not set as 'SECURE'.

2 Poor - Valid certificate, weak or anonymous cipher suits, none standard ciphers. Site serves mixed content. Any certificate issues like SHA1/MD5 signatures, low rated CA's, lack of revocation lists etc.

3 Good - Fully validated cert and chain, including revocation lists, supports only secure cipher suits with forward secrecy. HTTP-HTTPS redirection or HSTS, all cookies are set as 'SECURE'. No mixed content.
I sometimes deliberately write really slow, stupid C code when dealing with time or other things that are both extremely important and (if I'm honest with myself) unlikely to be tested exhaustively.

Apple has really awesome developers who don't need to do stuff like this, and that's probably why iPhone alarms fail to go off every other leap year and reliably sound at 2 AM on January 32nd of years ending in '3'. Time-related code is like rolling your own encryption, in a sense. It's a trap for amateurs and pros alike.
For me, understanding Rust's type system has been far more complicated than understanding the ownership model. But that's likely because I have zero C, C++ or Haskell experience.
It's like the difference between filling your house with african sculpture because you've been to africa once, versus having deep roots and understanding of the culture. There's no objective way to judge these issue but they still exist
Yes, I thought Google was an obvious one but didn't want to bias the question.
Which is why it helps to have a company name so you can do some investigation beyond the job posting to see if there is something that remotely interests you about the company. At the least you could find a webpage that has some marketing speak about what it is they do or hope to do or you may be able to ping your network to find someone who can give you the inside scoop.

I'm curious to know what do you think is a reasonable wage in SF for a "full-stack" developer. Feel free to break it down by years of experience.

And by full-stack CEO, you mean someone who understands all the aspects of the business and isn't a pandering, disconnected, figure-head? In a lot of companies they'd be called the operating CEO, or in more cases, the COO/president.
It's a very nice gesture. But surely a better way to pay it on would be to find some poor student(s) and set up a one-off bursary/scholarship. Rather than the money being used who knows where exactly.

Anyone seeing weird search results?

I searched for "dog"

and it yielded these two rows:

Perkins Leblanc	Boyd	Utah	Brunei

Alyce Chavez	Bendon	Iowa	Portugal

I am pretty sure "dog" isn't in either of those rows? What am I missing?
the beauracratic machine just destroys so much wealth

In theory I sympathize with the sentiment, but 1) the dole is not wealth 2) the administration costs of the dole don't make money disappear, its just routed into income for the admin workers, 3) the administration costs of the dole do not necessarily decrease with UBI and might increase given a larger population to administer.

I generally do not support UBI since the key problem isn't cash in people's pockets, it is lack of engagement with society in ways that add value. UBI papers over the core problem.
> Lots of folks would love Scala codebases that only use 10% of the available language features and none of the complex frameworks. But, like you mentioned, it's a hard language to use responsibly.

Does this have the same problem in large languages such as C++ though? Where everyone thinks there's an optimal subset of the language, but no one agrees on what that optimal subset is?
As someone who doesn't meditate and would like to get a better idea of what you're offering the first thing I looked for is a video of what it would be like and couldn't find one.
That sounds in a way the best case scenario, not to need anything from school. (Although not the one which schools should be designed around.) Or do you think that a better-designed school could have pushed you further, perhaps?
I find it more approachable to use the question/answer format compared to reading all of the instructions on detail, determining if that particular section applies to me, and wondering if I found every form to cover every situation from the last year.

An example is figuring out whether I would owe taxes on the gain from the sale of a primary residence I owned for less than 2 years. Figuring that out manually took some googling, finding an IRS guide, reading multiple pages of regulations along with exceptions and determining where I stood.

Another is determining HSA contribution limits when my wife and I were in individual HDHP plans part of the year, and a family plan the remainder.
There is a counter-argument, though I'll leave it's plausibility up to the reader.

There are a lot of deductions a taxpayer can use that the IRS doesn't know about. Charity donations are probably the most common, but also business expenses and medical expenses. Teachers who spend their own money to buy class supplies could and should be able to submit those receipts and get a deduction.

That can't be easily simplified. The IRS could eliminate those deductions which would make a lot of people unhappy, or there could be some kind of complete retail overhaul where a teacher would be able to tag items as 'deductions' at the time of purchase, and the vendor would send all those tags to the IRS.

The IRS could just send out bills assuming no deductions, and teachers could then add supplemental information on business expense, but ( the argument goes ) teachers might not know they can, or they might not feel it's worth their effort, and so the end result is that a lot of taxpayers overpay.

Disclaimer - I have worked on tax software, but I wouldn't shed any tears if the industry went down. I'm relaying opinions I've gotten from coworkers at the time.
I've said this in other responses but it's worth repeating. He was the medical director of the Covid vaccination program for the county. If there was no plan for left over vaccines that's his fault.

Nobody expects him to come up with a perfectly fair queueing system on the spot. He should have done that sometime in the 6 months he had to prepare for the rollout. Even if we overlook that, using your position of public trust for personal benefit or for the benefit of your friends is a bright line you are not supposed to cross. And it is a bright line that is there for good reason and should be enforced.
No, he's saying that people will storm capitol buildings when they think elections are stolen.

For disregarding court orders, it's the same problem as trying to charge trump. The governor's in charge of enforcement. Punishment comes in the form of losing elections or impeachments, not law enforcement.

I'm not sure you can argue they're bad actors when the clear and obvious reasoning for those measures across the country are to limit the spread of a deadly pandemic.

It seems to me like the poll watcher is the person with standing? They could bring the exact same case a second time, that they were not able to watch. that comes against another legal doctrine now that the elections have been certified -- it's a moot point

The lack of standing is pretty obvious for the supreme Court isn't it? Texas has no say in how Pennsylvania votes. There's other things that are ridiculous about that case, like wanting throw out unrelated Texan votes.

I find it strange that that they weren't also suing to Wisconsin for the same thing and want to throw out Texan republican votes equal to the number of Wisconsin votes counted in this manner they don't like?
counter-point: I started seeing more and more developers carrying (personal) Macs in London in 2005 in pubs and at events and by 2007 99% of those I knew were using a Mac.

By 2007 many had a Mac laptop provided by their empoyers (myself included).

Of course, agree it wasn't the absolute majority (it;'s not the absolute majority today either) but far from rare depending on your circles

This seems very similar to Fluxxor, but solves some of the pain points.

Stores need to be extendable, and the Mixin concept (as used in React Elements) are a very useful way to do it. In this way, one can easily implement Marty's "State Sources" concept. I released a fork of Fluxxor a while ago with Mixin support [1] but it is unlikely to make it until 2.0.

The other nice parts to my eyes are:

State Mixins - sort of a hybrid between Fluxxor's StoreWatchMixin and Fluxxor-autobind [2]

Constants - This is a new one, I like it. Will have to play with it to see if it truly solves any problems; I've found that when I need to know what actions are available, I scan my actions files, simple as that.

Marty seems a little more "batteries included" than the other Flux implementations on the scene. This is a good thing, so long as it is easy to extend. Unfortunately I still don't see Mixins in Marty Stores either. In my opinion they are required for non-trivial apps.

You should avoid getting into direct conflict with the thief.

I suggest putting up signs offering a $200 cash no questions asked reward if the laptop is returned to the hotel front desk. Perhaps hotel management can knock on doors for you announcing the reward.

If you want to then take the laptop to the police and have it dusted for fingerprints that is your decision.

Most petty thieves just want cash and if the laptop isn't already sold it will probably be sold in the next day or two for $200 or less in cash.
Interesting. I'm able to make instant transfers within the UK (also on weekends) and I believe throughout Europe. There is still the issue of other currencies but I believe the original discussion was about sending money to other people within the same country (the US) so our system surpasses the criteria as it works between around 30 different countries.
We use OCaml at work, which has similar syntax (although no significant indentation). We explicitly don't intend after the let. Like

let a = 3 in
f a

That seems alright to me, but I wonder why my intuition prefers it.
Most banks in Europe can't refuse to open a basic account by law. They aren't obliges to offer any credit (or even debit) services, but a basic bank account is supplied (in some cases, only way to get money from/to the government is to use a bank transfer)

I'm a real newbie in terms of web server deployment, but for my first web app I went with an EC2 VPS because I had no idea what sort of traffic to expect and how I would handle spikes. Despite having a pretty decent VPS from Inception hosting (whom I recommend, no affiliation), I wouldn't know what to do to scale up.

EC2 seems to handle all that nicely by letting you just upgrade instance types as you need them, and providing burst performance for spikes in traffic. It seems like a pretty fire-and-forget solution and I've not paid them any money yet (10 days, 30,000 hits)... So far I'm happy but really I've no idea what I'm doing.
> The only time I’ve seen anyone assign a piece with the intent that it be explicitly negative was at a Rupert Murdoch-owned tabloid, and it was a tiny celebrity gossip item.

Wow, that is a much better article. Thanks for sharing!
