BSD has jails which are roughly equivalent to Docker and are older and more stable tech. I am also a big proponent of not needing Docker nearly as much as most people seem to think it's needed. Sure, if your stack revolves around a custom-compiled nginx version downloaded off some guy's FTP site then Docker is nice, but also why does your stack revolve around a custom-compiled nginx version downloaded off some guy's FTP site?

The rest will run as well or better. FreeBSD is a more cohesive unit and by some claims is more performant than Linux.

tl;dr: no it won't be a seamless move because the only seamless move would be from Ubuntu to Ubuntu. But if you are willing to explore tech that isn't the current in-vogue stack you will find some really cool stuff in BSD-land. And their rc.conf is a pleasure to work with compared to to the million config files you need to use on Ubuntu/systemd.
But dietary cholesterol itself only comes from animal products, which is probably why the Dr. said to cut out all animal products.
Irresponsible disclosure is releasing products and services with flaws like these onto the open market - the rest is corporate doublespeak.
This is exactly it. Earlier this year there was a hyped up paper [0] going around claiming that they could derive physics with AI. On inspection I found that what they actually did was this:

1. Take one simple physics equation, such as F = ma

2. Generate 10^6 tuples exactly satisfying this equation (F = 6, m = 2, a = 3), with absolutely no redundant, erroneous, or extraneous information

3. Feed these to a primitive "AI" system which brute-force tries the simplest relations that could relate the three provided variables (m = Fa, a = Fm, F = ma, ...)

4. Recover F = ma, declare physicists obsolete

It's such a poor imitation of the real process of discovery in science that it's frankly insulting. When people hear AI is involved with something they turn their brains off.

I think the article covers why simply announcing trigger warnings is not helpful but more importantly why it is not a steady state system.

As I see it this is basically recreating the weaker sex etiquette argument with bias based on experiences instead of gender. All the outrage.of speaking in front of the wrong people, special new requirements, plenty of signalling that you are better than others because they manage the necessary risks to do their job.
So let me get this straight, a person who supposedly got a platform to manipulate many others at once (and thats dangerous, according to you) is saying that manipulators shouldn't get a platform to manipulate many others at once, and you find that... also bad?

Worst case it might be hypocritical, but the claim is certainly inconsistent. The question is, how do we handle dangerous manipulators on social media? Are they not a problem at all?
It’s definitely a problem. You should never have any destructive or modifying actions of any sort done from a GET request. In addition to browser prefetching, users might share a link without the receiving user realizing they are taking an action as soon as they click the link, which can be a source of security issues.

That being said, I too have seen things like this on the Internet. I would assume Google has some sort of heuristic to determine whether or not they can safely prefetch a link, but who really knows? You should absolutely avoid making this mistake in your own code.
Post office boxes exist for this reason.
What I'm saying is that, if ubiquitous surveillance is inevitable (as I believe), then it behooves us to address the antagonistic relationship (to the degree that it exists) between our governments and ourselves.

- - - -

As for specific ways the idea applies to surveillance, I can only speculate. The essence would be that everyone is equally under the microscope including law enforcement officers and administration.
If I would have to port a code base from 2 to 3 today, I think the first thing I would do is add type annotations to to the code base via typing/mypy and go from there. A fully typed Python 2 code base shouldn't be too difficult to port with the help of mypy and proper editor support.
Onions. You need layers and defense in depth. Because even the best humans make mistakes and it is inhuman to assume perfectionism. Never rely on just one engineering feature.

Which service?
Left off my post is the now frequently mentioned problem of bright light from the ipad at night. The light is bad for going to sleep and solutions like F.lux don't work on the ipad. Turning down the brightness helps a little, but as I mention in the post, the real problem is that the blue light is not filtered out. Currently, I just stop myself from using the iPad at night, which is so unfortunate--especially since I like it as an e-reader.

Will someone please provide a solution to this problem...I, for one, would be willing to pay for it.
If you have a rails app, use heroku and rds.

How long has the app been growing? If you grow too fast FB will delete it without warning.
Shortest game I ever played was less than 3 minutes.
On my first turn I bought St. Charles Place.
On the other player's first turn he bought on of the light blue properties.
On my second turn I bought Virginia.
On the other player's second turn he bought States Ave.
I mortgaged my 2 properties and traded him them for his one property and all his cash.
On his next turn he landed on Community Chest and couldn't pay the school fees.
But in one thousand years from now, when we're all teleporting, no one will have cars anymore, but I'll bet you will be able to find painted rocks. :-)
I had this same problem and it really didn't get fixed until I got a regular job. I have no self-discipline :-)

The light thing does work though. There are studies backing it and I've tried it and it definitely works.

One funny thing about one of those studies. They somehow found "evidence" that light on the inside of elbow (I think its called the cubital tunnel area) had the same effect on circadian rhythms, but I think this was later disproven.
Responding to you first two sentences, I don't think that's actually a bad thing. It's very far from being the best food ever but it has a consistent quality - you can walk into any McDonald's restaurant anywhere in the world and you will know exactly what you will get. Sometimes (especially when you travel) you don't have that many options when it comes to food and you know that at least you won't get food poisoning at McDonald's.
beautiful, thanks!
Do you know python? What about AppEngine? It has zero administration.

Also, I'd go with http://www.linode.com, seems to be a cheaper, easier to admin, alternative to EC2.
The first open standard for multi-dimensional cube analysis is SQL.

For those interested, the link to Dr. Dobb's is shockingly poor. Check out the official site:

Where is competition in your analysis?

Yes, there are many possible software products that can be done cheaply with outsourced labor. The problem is, because they can be done cheaply, they are done. Why should anyone use your Groupon clone when they could just use, well, Groupon.

You can go through a whole lot of MVPs and find out that all of them aren't really viable.

And then if it is viable, why should the developer work for you instead of competing with you? If you're throwing away the initial outsourced prototype and starting from scratch, what advantage do you have over him? While you're scrambling to find a technical cofounder to replace your cheap outsourced team, he could just reimplement the thing, plus all the improvements that actual usage has suggested, and keep 100% of the equity. You're just asking to get Winklevossed.

There's a reason why Paul Graham advises people to take a look at their alternatives and then do whatever's hardest. Business is about competition, about having a durable competitive advantage that other people can't easily replicate. If everybody can do it, nobody makes any money off it.
It just depends. When I see that it's a real-time chat room built on top of node.js, it doesn't really interest me. A chat room is basically the Hello World of node.js/socket.io, and I think I built my first one in a matter of hours. But, other things usually entice me to click the link. I think I click just about every Show HN link that I see, though. :P
Right, but the receipt does very little to fix this. Two of the largest categories of spending are completely obfuscated by it.
I wasn't aware anyone had their life threatened because they didn't pay for NPR.
I'm very interested in this, but even just to auto track funnel metrics. If you can show me other startups in my space, that's just icing on the cake.
Whatever, dude! I concur with everything you've said. Especially the bit about not using the timeline. The web is for interactive content, people, not timeline-based animation. Flash shifted focus to the former long, long ago.

I want to clarify why I mentioned Papervision. Papervision will achieve a similar effect to WebGL (you get textured polygons in your browser), and it won't require installing anything that 90% of users don't already have.

For developers and creative types (of the sort called out in response to my initial post), we need solutions that work today. There's no sense in getting us excited about tech we can't use; it's just showing-off that your particular platform has more bling. Tech demos are impressive when the technology is available to everyone. What we're seeing with these demos is as indicative of what can be done on the internet, now or in the near future, as a pre-rendered cinematic is indicative of the graphics in a video game. They're boastful and deceptive.
You nailed it. I think Joel as a business owner likes to have all his staff eat lunch together, because it helps "build team" and lets him evaluate all of them further in an alternate setting. It's beneficial for him. But it's not necessarily the best thing for each individual employee.
Sometimes when entering a search term in the address bar the "instant search" goes a little crazy and loses half of the text I typed in. Not a big deal, but happens once in a while.
I used to do this with bluetooth way back when, so far I'm really enjoying this implementation.
nothing to replace it? See SpaceX and Virgin Galactic.
I feel like those of us blessed to work in very positive environments forget that many people do not, and when those people hear that "the team always eats together" immediately assume it is a management enforced policy, and not a spontaneous event.
Agreed. I'm glad that he sees foreign companies as competitors... I'm not itching to get in a fight with China or Russia, but they're frenemies. We shouldn't be giving them any more than we have to.
>Is Lisbon a dystopia we should fear becoming?

For Portuguese people, perhaps it is. Who really wants to feel like a foreigner in their own country (esp. when that country is as small as Portugal)?

I know I'd be really irritated if I tried going to local restaurants around me and all the servers there only spoke Spanish. How would you feel about that?

>Returning to the first point, we've had a lot of non-english-speaking immigrants over the years and no plausible threat to the primacy of English in the US.

Yes, but that's because most of them either learned the dominant local language (English), or were not present in sufficient numbers to cause a situation like above. Sure, some formed little enclaves here and there, but that's a little different from what the OP described. And their kids grew up speaking English and fit into the new society. Finally, America is a really huge country, much larger than Portugal, and has historically accepted immigrants from many different places, so English (already being in place as the dominant language) was naturally the language everyone would learn so they could survive here. Given how huge English is now as a worldwide "lingua franca", I don't think you can compare America's history with what other non-English-speaking countries are experiencing today.
The PRC's total population and working age population will peak in the next five years or so and begin a steady decline from there. 33% of the population will be over 65 by 2050 according to projections.

There was a recent study from Peking University which hypothesized that the population actually peaked in 2018 and is already shrinking. (government numbers are unreliable)
Masayoshi Son (founder & CEO of SoftBank) has been infamous in Japan since the 1990s for rattling the very conservative Japanese business environment. He has been considered a maverick, an outlier there since the beginning. Both in his thinking and his actions; his willingness - almost eagerness - to pursue higher risk endeavors that few business people in Japan would similarly consider.
ethereum is based on Proof of Work, so can not be as efficient as consensus algorithms designed to not require PoW (like Algorand, which has the clearest mathematical / algoritmic underpinning / proof under a very strong attack model, if you know of others, I would certainly be interested)
Ugh, I missed that. But there is still nothing preventing a malicious (nvidia) driver from re-adding the pages back. In fact, since they are missing from the direct map, it points anything malicious right at the interesting physical addresses..

Well, you can if you reload the page from the backend for each of those operations. Like we did in the 00s.
Except for the last two, the rest are cheap items. I feel like this is a canned response that is valid for some types of self help articles, but this is a personal blog, and the "article" is just a list of some cool stuff the author likes. Maybe the title is over the top for someone with a sonos setup, but again, it's a personal blog.
Products from Japan are sold in many countries and usually have a good reputation. The country has many trade relations and foreign investments all over the planet. They are solidly in the top 5 of trading countries.

Certainly the geo-strategic position was favorable, but I think this is quite the exaggeration.
Some would say that the debate is whether raising minimum wage even has a net beneficial effect for those at the bottom of society.

The fact that we still have no clarity after looking at this closely for decades suggests that it's probably close to a wash, randomly benefiting some of the poor at the expense of others.
The "slippery slope" principle applies here though: N+1 enables N+2, which enables N+3 and so on.
Some key rules I've found are to avoid the challenges you're describing are to evaluate quality (use the software + check their docs + talk to customers) and portability (actually make sure the exports work the way you need them to) before considering using or recommending any new piece of saas

Working on a search/review/ratings engine (https://tooltip.com), that currently operates as a consulting service, because I've found that parsing through all the muck is a waste of human time and anxiety (also, ppl often end up on the WRONG solution because they didn't have enough time or the right resources to search)

Edit: More immediate practical strategies are to use a spreadsheet that aggregates up from the dept level to the company level to keep track of all users/accounts, or buy a piece of SAAS to manage dedicated procurement / billing (there are a few alternatives out there on this front nowadays)
And on top of all that, don't forget, the force (lobbying power) is strong with the Realtors. Kinda in the same way the dealership associations are with manufactures selling direct(tesla).

And yeah, many properties never hit the MLS, so a solution would be more of a networking solution, rather than just something to replace the MLS, because that would not change much. Many times it's not even a issue with information being available, it's kept off the MLS because they want to get their contacts in on it first. It's a I'll help you, you help me type thing.
It completely defeats the whole point of a garbage collector if you have to resort to hacks like this. I understand why it is done. A lot easier to use the work around then to fix the root problem.

Unfortunatelly these types of bugs have a nasty way of showing up in other places where it can be even harder to debug. Long term these bugs need to be fixed otherwise your code will just be a ticking bomb. The worst part is when they combine with other bugs and they become even harder to debug.
I've tried to create new circuits, changing IP addresses, and they are all blocked.
Only if other people at the company can maintain F#, though - interoperability is importnnt, yes, but experienced managers will want to plan for the time after you are gone.
I would love a job writing Haskell but any of the jobs I’ve seen would involve a 6 figure pay cut. Haskell is such a joy to work with.
"All week in New York, the myriad token-gated parties and meetups applied social filters based on digital ownership. Tickets to these events could only be purchased once you connected your crypto wallet and proved that you held the correct NFTs. At any given party, the coolest people in the room were always the “whales,” semi-mythical figures who own over 1000 ETH ($3 million at the time of writing) in digital assets. Rumors of exclusive “whale dinners” trickled down through the ranks of attendees, who jockeyed in anonymous group chats for passwords to invite-only events."

This honestly makes me physically cringe. It's not even the worst aspects of new money, it's people LARPing as the nouveau riche. Imagine sitting in a room full of adults with status anxiety who compare their 20 dollar deviantart ape drawings they bought with their entire savings.

I never grew out of that, lol
There are 4 hypotheses that are all nearly 50-70 yrs (and some conjectured ~200 years ago).

1) either the Earth was accreted from pieces with H2O (in hydrated minerals) and was able to retain the gaseous envelope during subsequent collisions + internal other heating 2) H2O was delivered at later stage (after accretion) by secondary collisions (via asteroids) 3) H2O was delivered (later) mainly by icy bodies from outer solar system (of that time) [comets]. 4)Any combination of the above.

So far, as the article also indicates, we are not really closer to know with much certainty which process dominated. I doubt we will ever be able to solve this immensely non-linear multi-parameter inverse problem (though the path is more important than the goal, so we should keep walking ..).
There is also the Cardano ecosystem which is mainly built on Haskell and runs one of the biggest and most active blockchains ever.
It is important with or without brexit.
It's "just be yourself" all over again. What if my unmasked self is an aloof prick? It's just stupid. "Just be yourself... no not like that... wait not like that!"
I think you have a point, but the situation you describe is largely because things are in flux - that is certainly the case for web pages.

When consensus is reached, things settle down - so most new languages give you associative arrays out of the box. On the other hand, there was a time when exceptions seemed to be the consensus on runtime error handling, but there has been some rethinking on that...

Then there is APL, which seems to exemplify what you are asking for. It is very well-regarded by those who get it, but it seems to have been just too difficult (or alien) for most of the engineers whose purpose it addresses.

Haskell may not be the best example to make a case from, as it is still, to a large extent, an experimental language. Spreadsheets are also something of an outlier, as they are a system of data manipulation already developed before it was practical to computerize them.
I think the exact opposite: the only good judges of syntax are people who understand the semantics deeply enough to understand whether the syntax accurately reflects them.

It's all well and good to say that people should be able to bounce around between languages within a paradigm. A Rubyist should be able to read Python, Perl, and PHP, sure. A Java programmer should be able to read C++ and C#. Claiming that people should be able to read any programming language, though, means that languages aren't allowed to explore significantly different semantics. A JavaScript programmer isn't going to be able to pick up something written in Prolog or Forth and quickly understand exactly what's going on, and that's as it should be. The whole point of having multiple paradigms is that they can express different ideas and ways of approaching problems.

So, I agree that an SML or OCaml programmer should be able to "get into the groove" with Haskell quickly. In my experience, this is usually the case.
If I have to throw typesafety onto the sacrificial bonfire to avoid queue.h, then I do it with a light heart. I really don't see any value in it. You have two possible situations:

1) The list contains only items of one type - in this case you already know what the type of all objects in the list is - it's a list of widgets, so all items are of type Widget. Whilst queue.h will give you a compiler warning if ever you try to put a File into your widget list, is that every really likely to happen in real life???

2) You have a list of mixed-type objects. In that case you need code to identify at runtime what the type of the object was anyhow, so type safety gets you nothing in that case either.

So, considering how little you get back for the decidely annoying problems of macros and polluted data structures, I really have no hesitation in counselling the avoidance of queue.h.

In answer to your question, no, I don't have a nice typesafe library. But I do have a nice non-typesafe library.

Constructive criticism:

It might be easier to use if it was a browser extension. This would allow me to type a sentence into the password field, right-click the password field, select base64/hex/whatever, and not have to worry about alt-tabbing between programs or pasting the password.

(Can browser extensions read the contents of password fields? I don't know.)
Although I'm a gamejs committer, i disagree :)

Take for example doodlejs: it doesn't have any of the things you mention, BUT its scene graph is superior to all other engines.

Not everyone wants the same things in his framework. E.g. sprite animation makes no sense (not a lot) if your lib is vector & tween centric.

See my list of favorites in a comment higher up.
Trolling?
Either you compare HTML5 (which runs more than one platform and is open standard) vs Flash, or particular tools and then your "using a number of free development environments" does not apply.
If not talking about particular tool: well, you know, you can write html and js in many many editors…
