Man, you've made my day. I've always imagined the first PR about transient AI as "Dr. has applied for a patent for Y" or "How can Siri answer this, although she only knows that". But the idea of a system becoming transient and Google employees not knowing where it is stored inside their datacenters would be plausible. Assuming AI is possible.

Hopefully the first thing this AI will declare is whether it stores data on its EU server.

Very interesting to see a "pen first" interface which I hope works much better than that shitty "touch first" interface in Windows 8. I don't care what the fanbois say, windows 8 sux! Windows 10 is a major improvement in usability compared to 8, so I hope MS is back on track to making productive systems. If the new surface book works as good as it looks, MS is back on track to being relevant in the computing landscape.

This is our concern, as a small business using a very small but non-zero set of US services, all of which were previously covered by Safe Harbor provisions.

This ruling is something we have always been concerned about from a business point of view, because ever since it became untenable to claim US companies could actually protect any personal data at all the basic legal premise on which Safe Harbor was built has been shaky. We don't know now whether it will still be sufficient to merely disclose our commercial partners in our privacy policy (which we do, by name and with an indication of what we use them for) or whether we need some sort of more active consent.

I haven't had chance to speak to our lawyer yet, but I'm expecting him to tell us something along the lines of: the law now requires us to add yet another prominent notice at the conclusion of a sale. On top of all the consumer protection rubbish from the recent EU changes there -- which again were well-intentioned but actually impose silly things that help neither us nor our customers -- the number of such notices we need by law is making our sales pages almost comical now. I can't believe all these notices really help to protect anyone from much of anything in practice, and anyone reading this on HN probably knows what effect compliance has on conversions.

The second to worst possible outcome is probably that we are now required to seek active consent from our existing customers before continuing to use things like US-based payment services. The worst is that it actually becomes illegal to use those services at all, though I don't think that is going to happen.

It's sad, because from a personal point of view this mess is long overdue for being cleaned up. But the authorities are so clumsy about handling these issues that a lot of the time they just hurt small businesses and legitimate international trade.

I took martial arts as a kid, taekwondo, hapkido, karate. I loved knowing my limits thats what martial arts teaches you, your physical limits and it lets you stay out of fights unless absolutely necessary.

More over I loved the discipline, and a strong sense of inner confidence. The stress release. I find martial arts is more about meditation and practicing control over yourself.

As for practicality, you are better off learning something that special forces developed for hand to hand combat.

Out of all martial arts I'd say taekwondo if mastered is the most lethal because the leg is the most powerful muscle, perfect for women as they have much more lethal leg muscle than men.

My instructor practiced it since he was a kid and went to a special university where they practice TKD day and night. His control over space and footwork was WTF grade. Even when a group of black belts tried to spar him, the non stop array of fakes and quick turn kicks knocked somebody out.

Well. HN is probably not the best place for this, so I'm not going to make this too long, but there are a couple of point.

Few movements will survive its more prominent members being beaten and arrested, which is what happens when there's no power balance. Even fewer movement will survive going out and doing the same thing all over again. No seasoned movement can ever guarantee that a protest won't turn violent if the police start arresting people. I'm not saying you should go out and do militant things, but you can't make is easy for the authorities to stop you from protesting. If the choice is between your movement being silenced and trying to defend yourself then maybe that's not really a choice as such.

Of course the US is so far beyond any reasonable protest culture that you might as well not protest at all.

I share the same sentiment. I am so glad to see it finally formally launched. Now, to dig in to Perl 6!
There is nothing stopping a resurgence of Perl, if it's an order of magnitude better than competitors. If the combination of modern Perl techniques and the language make it a good enough fit for a new interesting framework or tool, then we might all be writing Perl again in a few years.
Giant disclaimer: I work at StackStorm...but I also have an extensive Ops background.

This is really the next step in runbook automation. It gives users a way to express procedures and operational patterns in code (the workflow definitions are in yaml). With any sort of automated remediation there is always the concern of "painting over the mold" but at the same time you don't want to get stuck doing a large number of manual steps when you could be focusing your energy on tracking down the root cause of the issue and resolving that. The more important aspect to me personally is the easy of version controlling these ops patterns. Store the workflow definitions in source control and it is easy to diff the changes in your procedure.

I'm not saying you're incorrect (I think the Surface Book indeed appears innovative and useful), I just wanted to share the history of at least one product class -- Panda Project's Archistrat workstations and servers - that separates CPU, memory, and I/O into allegedly independent and upgradable subsystems connected by a passive backplane.

BYTE wrote about it, and the Internet Archive luckily saved the interesting preview:

https://web.archive.org/web/20080907024539/http://www.byte.c...

As I searched for this article, I happened across Panda Project's patent for their backplane, published almost 17 years to the day:

http://www.freepatentsonline.com/5822551.html

It's probably just coincidence (I'm guessing MS wasn't waiting for this patent to expire before releasing the Surface Book), but it was a fun find.

If we're talking about a general purpose event provider/consumer API that takes into account that some event sources will be voluble, while others will be almost always silent/blocked, then that's a real upgrade. It could bring a real event-oriented capability to generators. You see bits and pieces of that now--attempts to use generators with greenlets and coroutines, say. But until the 3.4 asyncio work, GvR hasn't seemed sufficiently interested/invested to make a big step forward on event processing idioms. Now he is.

> maybe because you wasted your time studying UML

Seems a bit misleading, UML is consistently the best way I've seen to communicate ideas to other devs (especially in an OO environment, but some diagrams could be useful from a functional viewpoint). The worst is spending an hour trying to work together with someone to figure out what they mean because they use their own invented notation or some pidgin-UML.
Disclaimer: I am an employee at StackStorm

Tools like Puppet and Chef are great at managing the state of a single node. However, with any piece of infrastructure that expands beyond a single node, things can get complex pretty quickly. In times where the state of the systems change, there often are a multitude of steps that need to occur to ensure that the intended state is met. However, because tools like Puppet and Chef are node-centric, you often find yourself waiting a long time for eventual convergence as a code is executed for a node, updated state data transferred to some upstream data server (Chef server, PuppetDB), and then other nodes converge with updated data. Depending on the task, this convergence time can be killer.

In contrast, StackStorm is an event-driven automation framework that will help perform the incremental tasks across many systems necessary to properly move from one state to another. Common examples include ensuring that Load Balancers are up before advertising network services, ensuring SQL standby servers are alive before enabling replication, and so forth. Each of these steps is going to require an imperative set of steps to transition between states. With StackStorm, we plug into a multitude of tools (including Puppet and Chef!) that provide event updates as actions take place, intercept these triggers, and execute workflows. In many cases, we have clients that heavily use a configuration management tool like Puppet or Chef, but rely on StackStorm to orchestrate the various runs of these tools on different nodes as checkpoints are reached. In this way, decrease the feedback loop as you have StackStorm listening for "run finished" notifications from these CM tools, and then we can go and figure out what is next by kicking off actions or workflows as necessary.

There is absolutely a ton more about StackStorm beyond this immediate answer. In addition, we include things like Role Based Access Control, ChatOps support, full audit trails, and more. I encourage you to check it out and provide feedback. We'd absolutely love to help!

>What would you build in Perl today that you wouldn't build in another language instead?

You could turn it around too: what could you build in another language that you couldn't build in Perl? Well, nothing really. It's a matter of taste, and I think what continues to set Perl apart is its syntax, which could be really good and readable when you don't try to do code golf.
Or, you know, just have people scan the QR code of routes they finish.

Perl was the first high-level language I learned and I've used it many times during interviews. I still think I can solve most non language-specific interview questions extremely efficiently with Perl. Go Perl!
Congrats to the perl community. We should keep an open mind and learn from what they have accomplished.

If perl 6 turns out to be useful for the larger software engineering community (and is more widely adopted), this is wonderful. If not, then we still have another interesting language in the great river of interesting tech things.

Either way, the perl community will continue to do what it does best!

I'm not sure what you mean. Evidence, by its very nature, can only be gathered for events that have occurred. There is plenty of discussions about evidence.

The real consequences, however, are in the future, and for those there can be nothing more than predictions. In that context, "consensus" means "within a very wide range of models and predictions, this is what will happen". It doesn't mean that it will happen, but it does mean that a bunch of people, using different methods and different data, agree on the conclusions. How does that weaken the argument?

Thinkpad W520. Core i7, like a Macbook. 16GB of RAM, like a Macbook. Spinning hard drive, worse than a Macbook. Has a desktop video card that is required in order to use video out, but you have to reboot and enable the video card, then it won't sleep until you reboot and disable the card... unlike a Macbook. Because Nvidia won't make Linux drivers for Optimus. No, it's not in the same class as a Macbook, that's half my point. It doesn't do anything a Macbook won't do, and it's less than a year old. It has all the downsides of being a Thinkpad with none of the upsides of... being a Thinkpad. Modern Thinkpads are not as durable or reliable as people make them out to be.

My company is switching everyone from Thinkpads to Macbooks, and this is a company that was built on Thinkpads. That's how awful modern Thinkpads are compared to basically anything else.
Here's something that's normally not too fun to deal with in Python and Ruby: asynchronous operations. Perl 6 has promises, C#-style async/await, Go-style channels, and Reactive Extensions-style Supplies built in as first-class ways to deal with asynchrony, concurrency, and parallelism. It can also take advantage of as many threads as you'll give it. Since I deal with web services a lot, this is a huge boon for me.

But I don't really want to give a laundry list of features, because that alone is not a compelling enough reason to pick a language (P6 obviously needs to develop an ecosystem). As someone who appreciates both OO and FP, both static and dynamic typing, P6 really hits a sweet spot. I encourage you to look at Perl 6 as a new language with the feel of Perl but which solves many modern problems.

Apple has done well. They have made great products and when my daughter needed a phone I bought her an iPhone.

But today is not a moment in time where the conversation is about Apple being better. In fact, people seem genuinely enthused with what Microsoft has created today.

Microsoft has been around a long time and so has Apple. The company that can continue to adapt will continue to stay in business. Microsoft has shown a capacity to do this and today reflects this well.

uh, yeah? duh? In a language like ruby where there is frequent changes, its necessary to know where things are coming from and where they're going. The community itself is learning about what is and what is not a good idea, and its of course wise to learn that knowledge as well.

Now, is it important to know the nitty gritty details of who created the language and in who's garage? I think that is more trivia. But how the language itself has evolved is important to understand.
Agreed. But from what I see through my social media, a large majority love the shallow content. Instagram is filled with highly-followed users that just repost curated reddit content (fuckjerry, thefatjewish, etc), it's obviously filling a large niche.

The other people have already answered this, but I just wanted to clarify that this is why people talk about the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets in this context, because those rest on land.

The Arctic ice is important for albedo reasons, it reflects a lot of sunlight that would otherwise go into warming the water, but as you correctly point out, the melting of that particular ice won't contribute to sea level rise directly.
