Black holes are not active all the time, after cleaning out the surrounding space they can go through extended periods in which they are not aggregating more mass. I am not even sure if you should expect particles with high energy rushing in. Why not gas clouds with densities of a few atoms per cubic meter drifting into the black hole with modest velocity? If I remember correctly you can even be inside the event horizon before the black hole actually formed, I would definitely not expect high energy particles in such an scenario.
We mix tweets from professional journalists, bloggers and fans from both teams, then create a human curated twitter stream in real time. We usually have live analysis, photos, vines, instant fan reactions and a few jokes here and there.

A few months ago I read the "What Twitter Can Be" article from Chris Sacca (http://lowercasecapital.com/2015/06/03/what-twitter-can-be-2...), and the “live” section of it resonated a lot with me. I thought “Damn, how I wish something like that existed”, then I realized I could just make it as a side project.

We keep our schedules at the website, so you can see which are our upcoming events and check how our previous coverages turned out. If you want to get a feel for what we are doing here, you can check the stream for the season kickoff at http://maritaca.tv/livefeed.html?id=pit@ne&utm_source=hacker.... We will cover the Brows vs Jets (http://maritaca.tv/livefeed.html?id=cle@nyj&utm_source=hacke...) game at 1pm ET, and the SNF tonight, Giants vs Cowboys (http://maritaca.tv/livefeed.html?id=nyg@dal&utm_source=hacke...).

"no impact on the balance of power, ie.. not a real new threat"

The new impact was abandoning the Munroe Doctrine, or more accurately re-defining its limitations. OK so on paper we should roll the landing craft and tanks in, but you have nukes so you get a free pass, we'll harass the heck out of you but keep the weapons that directly impact us out of sight and we'll not fight back too hard. There is also some face saving going on that sure there are plenty of leftist orgs with weapons that suspiciously happen to be all from your factories but we can kind of plausibly deny based on plenty of western rifles and even local factory production. But it goes too far WRT saving face to take over and four years later emplace Russian missiles and nukes... we can turn a blind eye to generic infantry rifles but the missiles are a step too far.

Another way to look at it is confusion about the borders of the Munroe Doctrine. When it was written the US didn't have hundreds of military bases around the world full of troops and we just did two world wars and we're fighting brushfire conflicts all over the planet. Suddenly partitioning the globe by hemisphere into ours and theirs and never the two shall meet doesn't seem so fair or realistic. So newly negotiated result of the post crisis Munroe Doctrine is the Russians can do behind the scene and adviser stuff right up to our borders, but strategic weapons were a step too far at that time (although it would have been more fair to let them do in Cuba what we did in Turkey, that was just too big of a step at that time)

Now debating the sanity or wisdom or ethics of the Munroe Doctrine is a whole nother kettle of fish, but given it, there are some interpretations based on it that shouldn't be missed. Pre-crisis, this is our hemisphere, keep out, because we don't get involved in foreign entanglements. Post-crisis, well, yeah, we get into all kinds of foreign entanglements and the new line in the sand is no permanently emplaced strategic weapons in our hemisphere, fair or right or not, its the new line in the sand and the other guys agreed to it.

Actually, filter always returning an iterator was one of the benefits of python3 for me; you don't have to think about the return type or always import itertools, everything just returns an iterator.
LMAO! I love how Bloomberg (voice of the financial sector) stirs up shit and then suggests that taxation is the solution. This is great propaganda at work here, so study it well. They want desperately to steer the world away from financial sector reform (debt amnesty, bank regulation, prohibition of currency speculation, etc.) and blame it all on the government. Why? Because the US government is leading criminal proceedings against the leaders of the financial sector for their crimes during the collapse of the financial sector in 2008. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2014-11-03/jpmorgan-f...
yes...it could be as minimal of a need as just needing a file server/NAS. I teach at a middle school where even the simple task of turning in an assignment as a file and not a piece of paper is a huge chore with no institutional support.

Anyways, OP has given so little info it seems a bit of a waste that they have received so many long replies without even knowing what the problem is.

Given the choice between two functionally correct data structures with different performance profiles, you should pick the one more appropriate to the task at hand. A lot of performance issues can be proactively avoided with a bit of analytical thinking, but you do need to know how your data structures work and what their trade-offs are.

Profilers are wonderful tools, but in the 15 years I've been professionally writing software the number of people I know that have ever used one numbers in the low 10s. Of those, the number that can derive meaningful data from a profile is even smaller. And finally, those that can spot "death from a thousand cuts" situations (quite common) from the proverbial method that takes 20% of all CPU time is even smaller yet.

Profiling has a place, of course. But it's tricky to get right, incredibly time consuming without sampling, and often doesn't give you a complete picture. It's the performance equivalent of a debugger and really should be a fallback, not the only tool in your arsenal.

> USSR putting nuclear missles 90 miles off the coast of Florida had no impact on the balance of power, ie.. not a real new threat - which means Kennedy should not have opposed that, at the risk of inflaming tensions. I just don't find that a sensible argument.

The reason the Cuban missiles didn't change the balance of power was because the USSR could have attacked the USA anyway, using Russian-based long range missiles and (especially) submarine-launched missiles. The only difference between the Cuban missiles and the other two types were that the Cuban missiles were more visible, so they seemed more dangerous even though they were not.

> Such as filter keeping the type. In 3 it returns an iterator.

it was a special case for a few types, didn't (couldn't) work for all types e.g.

>>> filter(lambda x: x in 'ABC', set('ABC'))

> Also, I like print.

I like Python 3's print. It's kind-of a pain because my day-to-day uses Python 2 and the context switch is annoying, but 3's is way more flexible and readable:

print <<f, foo, bar # (or is it >>file? I can never remember)

versus

actually makes sense, no sigil soup

\/
print(foo, bar, file=f, flush=True)
/\
||
separate statement necessary in P2

and because it's an expression it can be used in more context than Python 2's print statement.

if you already know the library you're using inside and out and have built such a thing before, maybe you could whip it out in a couple hours

This is the key, I think. I was in the same boat as OP not so long ago in thinking that I was unreasonably slow. I'm not; I'm just a generalist.

People who specialize in one specific area of technology can bang out something in their wheelhouse in a few hours because that's all they do, all day, every day. It makes them seem like superheroes. If you're working on a team with all specialists, it can make you look even slower by comparison.

As for what to do about it, I'm stuck between either finding a specialty, going into management, selling my own software products (ie: work for myself) or finding a way of communicating my work in a way that makes me look like a superhero too.
Alright so you read the article. You read that the US put nuclear missiles next to Russia, missiles that were visible to the entire world including Russia, aboveground, missiles which are vulnerable and can be destroyed in a first-strike, missiles that are therefore useless as a deterrent, and only useful as a first-strike weapon. Combined with ridiculous levels of paranoia and threats against the USSR and Cuba, and the invasion of Cuba, assassination attacks and constant provocations, and that this fuelled the Soviet's interest in positioning something similar in Cuba, and Cuba's interest in having some kind of deterrence to the multiple acts of aggression including a full-scale invasion. You already read that the USSR suggested and agreed to a peaceful missile trade that eventually happened, and that this was a reasonable course of action from the get-go, without the necessity of a confrontation which was fuelled by JFK's actions in the first place. And you also read that instead they forced a confrontation regardless, a confrontation that put half the world on the brink of destruction. How can you still not think Kennedy caused the confrontation/crisis? Not only did he cause it, but he also made sure not to avoid such a risky confrontation when it wasn't strategically necessary.

As for 'Kennedy shouldn't have opposed that', the article touches on it when it quotes Kennedy as saying he shouldn't have said the soviets couldn't have those missiles a few weeks earlier, and infers he now has to stick with it for domestic consumption because he'd be flip-flopping, not good after already being humiliated on Cuba, after running a campaign partially driven by hawkish views on Cuba. So Kennedy agrees with you that it makes no sense, and the article touches on the fact the Soviet position made sense, and that the European position disagreed with Kennedy, and that his own staff told him the threat wasn't significant, and the article also touches on the fact the Kennedies wanted to keep this a secret because it was a political, not a strategic move, and so part of his staff was kept in the dark (even the VC), part of the white house lied to congress, they pressured the Soviets to keep it in the dark and even went so far as to retrieve a letter that would expose it all if it was ever leaked, that tells you a lot.
The network effect changes (very expensive) which limit adoption of proof of work also limit adoption of encryption. Assuming encryption is adopted, the vendor(s) involved could simultaneously demand using Hashcash or another email proof of work system.

If we can agree that low-level hardware such as CPUs are essentially physical software, then it would seem that there are many bug-free software pieces out there. Many operating systems these days seem to have perfect or near perfect memory and thread management. Kernel mode drivers in general require a high level of quality since bugs usually mean death. User mode is where things get sloppy, and front-end Web Development is where things often get extra sloppy.

Though there is an equivalent DFA for every NFA, the DFA can have an exponentially larger number of states than the NFA, though my understanding is that's not usually the case in practice. In any event the processing time of an NFA implementation can reflect this explosion since the actual implementation algorithm of a finite state machine on ordinary hardware has to be deterministic.
"Actual humans" does not imply that the data will be any better. In some cases, it makes the data worse.
I like the comparison to the current China situation at the end of the article. It's true, China's military power and aggression are always being hyped, but when you get down to it, when is the last time you heard about a Chinese cruiser in the Mediterranean, or a Chinese aircraft carrier off Greenland? And yet the States are moving their naval task forces across the world all the time.

Perhaps we really are experiencing a similar twisting of the public view of military politics as happened back then.
Enlightened Imagination for Citizens
The thing to remember is that space isn't flat. Gravity warps it, like a bowling ball warps a flat bed sheet, but in 3 (technically, 4) dimensions. A black hole is a warping where instead of a gradual dip in the sheet, there is a cone that plummets down seemingly infinitely. But the principle of relativity means we don't really know what's on the other side; just that anything that goes over the edge of the quasi-spheroid line (the event horizon) can't ever go fast enough to come back.
Who knows, if you can formulate a convincing enough narrative around it, "voltropy" might catch on. It has a nice ring to it, although that isn't a very scientific way to measure its quality of course.

This is how not to do customer support.

This article contains a lot of inaccuracies. To name a few, JS wasn't intended to be a competitor to Java. Java was new and exciting when JS was getting ready to go to market, so Netscape got permission from Sun to use "Java" in the name. It was cooperation, not competition.

Second, JS Harmony does have a module/import system, and you can use it in all browsers with Babel.

Third, the assertion that code reuse is the only reason to use JS on the backend is unfounded. Node was built from the ground up to be non-blocking. There are non-blocking libraries in most languages, but in JS they are all non blocking. That's a huge win for certain kinds of workload.

Those errors and unsupported opinions reported as fact are in the first few paragraphs. Maybe the article gets better, but I don't have the patience to read any more.

This is a key point: recovery of the information requires some knowledge of time. If you were handed a pile of ashes (assuming ideal combustion of every molecule) you have zero chance of recovering any information but if you watched it burn, you can theoretically recover the initial state.

Thats where the analogy breaks down with black holes: when a singularity absorbs a particle not only is any information about its identity lost, but also where it was in time.

If you were to mix a bunch of ashes after watching several different documents burn you could still recover the initial state of each one but because of the extreme conditions in a singularity, even this basic axiom of cause and effect is no longer valid.
I was hoping for a mini usage showcase / sample. Maybe I'm spoiled, but I was looking through man pages and it was a meaningless dump to me as a newcomer to the library. I then looked at the articles, but it was a long read I didn't want to do at first.
Netflix uses daemontools in their BaseAMI[1] for starting up core services such as Apache and Tomcat.

You mean startups, a type of company that exists to rapidly grow in a niche unregulated industry, should wait for the government to regulate their new business before it ever exists?

Official, full support, instead of a custom implementation where it can take weeks to add support for a new service that's already a part of the C++ lib. Also, there are some newer languages out there that don't have quality libraries for AWS, but do have C extension support. This will allow wrappers for to be created so these languages can be used with AWS as well. Just take a look at how the Java lib is used.

Check out this presentation on UDT protocol:

http://udt.sourceforge.net/doc/udt-2009.ppt

It details the problems of TCP, names most alternatives, and describes UDT work. I used to use UDT to eliminate TCP's problems. It's just bad design and the fact that changing it is usually a kernel modification. Hence, all these application-level alternatives with UDT being most general-purpose and one of best.

Be interesting to see if someone can adapt it to games. For now, probably best to use game-specific model as in article and comments. UDT for other stuff where you control how the app works on both ends. TCP where you control one side.

Being a "regular" software engineer is all about building a large internal collection of idioms that you can reach for to build what you need, not to methodically think through each step.

Are you sure about that? It seems backward to me. Each time you implement something, you should be improving yourself. This means not relying on just doing it the same way you've always done it. It means actively looking for a better solution this time around, which typically means methodically thinking through each step.

Then again, I know people who think personal improvement should happen outside of work hours. shrug
