From the article:

"In Richland, everyone is encouraged from a young age to imagine that they might
one day – perhaps by 33 – be the richest person in the country – if they work
hard. Posters of rich and famous people adorn the walls of primary schools. The
national anthem is called ‘I can do it!’ – an ecstatic rendition of human
possibility."
Rand never indicates the American masses (your word, not hers) are stupid parasites, nothing even remotely of the sort in fact. She describes the masses as being devoured and harmed by the parasites, which are feeding off of them. This is true in Atlas Shrugged, Anthem, We The Living, and in her ~60 years of non-fiction writings. If you've read her books, it's impossible to have missed this, she's extraordinarily clear about it and goes to great lengths to spell it out for the reader step by step, both in terms of ideology and in real world effects.
The article is wrong (at least partially!) - the module they used (the ESP-01) only has a limited number of pins brought out, but the chip itself has a 10 bit ADC on board and there are plenty of modules that bring out the pins. I've been using lots of ESP-12 modules and they're great

Probably a corporate environment very much matches a caste system, hence Indians are the most suitable for running such an environment.

While I'd err on the side of caution toward the benefits of homeschooling, I can also see how homeschooling might have some downsides. Perhaps a big difference for me is that my homeschooling was of the Third Culture Kid (TCK) variety, where quite likely the negatives of homeschooling were balanced out by (often) rather extreme interaction with wildly different people and cultures.

That said, you've been all over this thread arguing this point. And it seems reasonable in a common-sense sort of way. However, the counter-points also make sense to me (and are closer to my personal experience).

Could you point me to research, or better explain why you seem to feel so strongly about this point? It seems to be more than a hunch or a common-sense thing for you from the way you're arguing the point, and I'd really like to know what the basis is for that.

EDIT: Let me add that I have no strong opinion about this particular argument. I consider the damage done by public schooling to vastly outweigh the negatives, social or otherwise, so even if the negatives are significant, I'd probably homeschool my kids if I had to choose.
There's https://github.com/codekitchen/dinghy if you want to mount the Mac host volumes inside boot2docker via NFS. We have a Vagrantfile that does this, but dinghy packages it all up nicely.

At the end of the day though, Docker as a development environment is really bad on OS X until a VM vendor fixes file share performance. I really wish Docker would make it a priority to have decent Mac support.

I don't agree with civilian's post, but I think that he is onto something. Once you get past Noah Webster and Benjamin Spock, the shaping effect is hard for me to see.

The Education of Henry Adams includes some interesting chapters, though it is not nearly Adams's best work: yet what in America has it shaped other than the occasional class reading list? Similarly there are fine and complex works of literature that few have read. Take a poll at the bus stop or the coffee shop and see how many people can quote you five lines out of North of Boston, Spring and All or Howl. (I can do maybe one from Howl and almost certainly the number in it is wrong" "America, when will you become worthy of your two million Trotskyites?") Moby Disk is a fine novel, but how many have read it through; no doubt The Sound and the Fury is also, but it defeated me at an age when I read a lot of Faulkner, and I haven't been back.
That's just silly though, if you see a bad trend, make adjustments to buck it? Just because you're "still making a profit" doesn't mean you're doing well or even that you aren't on the road to disaster. And unfortunately when you are a public company, your responsibility on this front is to your shareholders, not to your employees.

If it were a private company I'd agree to a certain extent, assuming that they could see an alternative way to stop this downward trend. However as a public company, constant growth is a must.

It has this mechanic click where the full touchpad lowers down, and while it is doing this the mouse moves slightly.

Both modules, the basin and the electronics, sit secure in an aluminium frame."
You're misunderstanding what Docker does.

The most important function of Docker is dependency management (allowing you to pack your own runtime with your apps with consummate ease), followed by standardising image distribution and deployment across environments.

A Docker image is not a VM image - it doesn't have a kernel, for starters, and is not designed to be booted in the usual sense (i.e., kernel+init+scripts) - it just has a Linux userland (often quite restricted) and will run _a single process_ by design[1].

Also, AWS and Google Cloud already allow you to run Docker images (on EC2 Container Service and Kubernetes).

Cloud providers won't accept existing VM images in the sense that large-scale hypervisor platforms usually use different formats and they don't need the hassle involved in building and supporting VM conversion services.

It's pointless to have those as a service when anyone can grab Packer or a similar tool and convert a .vbox/.vmdk to an AWS AMI or an Azure Hyper-V image - and support the resulting images themselves (which is another reason why providers make a clear distinction between certified/tested images and third-party ones).

[1]: of course you can launch supervisord and a bunch of stuff underneath it, but if you're doing that, you're doing it wrong.

"Based on earlier studies showing that some of the eye movements of REM sleep corresponded to the reported direction of the dreamer's gaze (e.g., Roffwarg et al. 1962), we asked subjects to carry out distinctive patterns of voluntary eye movements when they realized they were dreaming. The prearranged eye movement signals appeared on the polygraph records during REM, proving that the subjects had indeed been lucid during uninterrupted REM sleep (LaBerge 1990; LaBerge et al. 1981)" (from http://www.lucidity.com/slbbs/)

Why is that obvious? I can think of several other frameworks that this would apply to. Drupal for instance, Yii is another and there are quite a few more.

What's happening with EC2 Spot GPU instance price?
This is brilliant .. a wonderful piece of artwork and technological whimsy in a way that playfully pushes the edge of display as an art-laden tool, and of course makes me wonder the difficulties of emulating it in software, so that everyone can have one and so that the ferro-fluid part isn't necessary (runs out of magnet-juice, requires containment, is icky in real life, etc.)
Ok, this is starting to clear things up for me.

When you say that it runs a single process by design, does it mean that if my application creates a fork(), the image will be unable to handle scheduling of the additional process?

Let's say I have an application that talks to MySQL. What is the right way in docker? Should I have two separate docker images, one running the application and the other running MySQL, with them talking to each other across the host OS? Or can they be configured in a single docker image?

Yes having to make a profit limits your business model options.
Because both Ember and Angular are front-end frameworks AND competitors.

The issues with Yii and Drupal are a bit different. Yii is a serverside framework. And Drupal a CMS. I'd say the case with Drupal is way more problematic than Yii's though.
If it's not sleep, it could well be stress. I notice I make silly mistakes more often when I've been in a stressful situation for a while.

Meditation's very good for stress. So is therapy, in (almost) any of its varying forms, if you can afford it.

It's also possible that you're not making silly mistakes as often as you think you are. Are you an overachiever, prone to anxiety, or otherwise worried about your performance? All of those could be contributing to making these mistakes prey on your mind.

Finally, if these mistakes are seriously concerning you, have you tried tracking them via a medium that isn't your brain? For any sporadic problem like this, tracking it on paper or a spreadsheet, ideally with other relevant data (sleep, exercise, nutrition, stressors, off the top of my head) can often be extremely useful in pinning down what's going on. The only issue there is that sometimes tracking it can cause you to get more anxious about it - try to do so without judgement and with the expectation that you'll be able to solve the problem.

But you don't have an OS in your docker image really. There's no kernel, no init or system services running if you don't do that yourself. A running docker container is just a process on the host OS with it's own environment.

ECS abstracts this away, and from your perspective, containers are running on their virtualization platform.

I don't think its correct that "capitalism" has its own bible. What happened with the Objectivists, and their big-business, greed-derived purpose, is one thing; capitalism is another. I think what happened is things got absolutely feudal, and as with all forks of human culture, Objectivism took off because it gave people what they wanted, if not what is needed. Cult systems work, which is the reason they persist in the first place, and the Rand'ists had all the ingredients for the cultural revolution they so desired: power, wealth, influence.

Capitalism - the positive form of it, which results in prosperity - has been under attack through countless generations for a long time, but it is still the one '-ism' which provides impetus to deliver value, rather than attempts to defeat it. I've seen very little of value in Rand'ian thought - but I can certainly understand the position of anyone who wants to 'get into it', for their own reasons, and get some value from it. Reading such stuff is mental capitalism, after all ..

I link this in every discussion about how we will never get fusion power:

http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/12/04/11/0435231/mit-fusi...

See the nice funding graph in question three.

If we were to decide that fusion is the way to go and would fund it appropriately, we could get commercial reactors much faster.

However, note that building power plants takes a lot of time. Building a new nuclear power plant for example takes 6-8 years just for the actual construction. Planning and bureaucracy have to be added to this. So even if we speed up fusion power development so that we can start building commercial fusion power plants in say twenty years, that's still mostly too late if we want to limit warming to two degrees.

At current CO2 production rates we have time until 2039 for that.

Many software engineers do. Considering how much value they create with their work, they are massively underpaid.

You could ask why? I'd argue it's anchoring to the magical 150k. For some reason SEs think that's peak engineering pay. It's not, and if you're doing meaningful work that adds top tier value you should be paid a lot more, or at a minimum given equity.
There was a guy who joined the Knockout or Angular team (I forget which) since they had similar ideas for the future of their frameworks. Not too long later, he left them and restarted his project as their vision began to diverge.

I don't know why anyone would want One True JS framework. Many of them provide different things. Angular has the kitchen-sink approach handling everything from templating, model-binding, routing and ajax requests and on the other end of the spectrum there are small libraries that do one thing well and encourage their users to adopt other libraries to do other stuff. Choice is a good thing.
It's easy to come up with a better idea - getting that idea implemented on a significant % of working devices not so much.
