I get your point though. The real hardcore stuff still has to be done close to the metal. But it's pretty amazing how far you can get with just JavaScript today, with everything from server, browser, native and even hardware. Abstractions are powerful.

Glad and scare that this project reached the 1st page of HN.
This project is at a very early stage but I had to release it at some stage. I wrote some explanation in the Readme [1] and in a blog post [2].

TL;DR: Pome aim to be very simple to deploy, opinionated and battery included tool to have a look at the health of your PG db. It's maybe not the case of anybody here but in my career, I have seen many PG db for which no health status were track (or because people think that RDS is magic). I assumed that if a very simple tool existed then it gives less reason to not track their health status.

At this stage, I don't think that Pome offers enough to be very useful but I hope that you will like the direction taken and where it's going.

Pome isn't aiming to be a tool for humongous Postgres instances which are already in the hands of a DBA who can have the time to setup more advanced monitoring tools. Pome won't be an alternative to a more configurable tool like collectd.

This isn't true though, the problem is there are generally more then 2 possible explanations. For instance let's imagine both of us are using an experimental telescope to observe if some event occurs. We are then looking at four possible scenarios. The telescope could work/not work correctly and the event could happen/not happen. You are confident that the telescope works correctly and also confident that the event will not occur so you give high prior probability to the first and a low to the second. I on the other hand think the telescope is rubbish and the event will almost certainly occur and do the opposite.
We sit down and wait and do not observe the event. You then come to the conclusion that the event did not occur and the telescope works correctly, while I come to the reverse conclusion.

I am always gone before or at 5. I am always here before 8. I am never late, I don't take lunch breaks, and I never stay late.

I've never had an employer complain about this. I've had some bosses who regularly work past 5, but they understand that I am in the office before they are each morning and that although I am flexible when big projects are due, there is a limit to what I will tolerate before I start looking for work elsewhere. I learned the hard way that you have to draw those lines yourself, otherwise someone will draw them for you.
Did you account for the possibility you're dreaming, or in a simulation? Or in a simulation of a simulation and so on? Yes, that's the curse of real numbers. In practice you set a limit of precision required, and a threshold of evidence you need to tell you that the precision should be more precise. You can get quite far with Newtonian physics without considering the corrections of general relativity, you can get quite far in engineering by assuming linearity by only expanding the Taylor transform of a non-linear expression by a bit instead of infinitely, and you can do a lot by assuming probabilistic independence of your card counting from what's going on on Pluto right now.

> Make $100k as a developer? $8k please!

If my career was based on a bunch of lies I would expect a lot worse. That's kind of my whole point. If I sold a website to somebody based on claims that it would do something it doesn't do, I would expect them to sue me for 100% of their money back plus damages, not just 8%.

And keep in mind with Lumosity, $24 mil is the revenue for 2013 that I could find, who knows what they actually made in 2014 and 2015. If we assume it was just flat that's $72 mil, which makes the $2 mil fine 2.7%.
Kindof related - one famus writer had a habit of always ending his work day mid-paragraph and mid-semtence.

That way he had an easy start next day.

Perhaps it's also a good method to work as a programmer? Don't fight to close that ticket before the end of the day?

Difficult question to answer. There was a complete lack of "technical" evidence against me (e.g .bash_history files, wiretaps).

The only evidence the prosecution had against me were a list of compromised sites and several coldfusion 0days I had in my possession.

They could never prove that I generated the list of compromised sites, but the judges felt that the possession of said list was enough evidence to convict me.

We would've appealed but there was no point as the sentence was essentially nothing.

JavaScript is not particularly abstract and not that high level, so it's not surprising you can stuff it into some relatively low level environments.

But yet, you can go even further down with something like Lua or even Python, which are not nearly as bad as JavaScript.

Sure, Unicode itself should be invisible, because Unicode is the solution to the problem. The problem itself is having tons of incompatible encodings in use, and people do have to understand what an encoding is if they're from a place where "legacy" encodings (i.e. ones that aren't Unicode encodings) are still in use. My mind usually leaps to Japan's continued adherence to SJIS, but I'm sure there are others as well.
Damascus Steel is probably the coolest kind of sword from the past. Carbon nanotubes have been found in ancient Damascus steel swords, proving that the advanced metallurgy strengthened Damascus Steel above and beyond all other steel of that era.

And while Japanese metallurgy exists today... the secret of Damascus steel has been lost in time. No one knows how to make it anymore.

---------------

With regards to Katanas vs Longswords...

Katanas are almost equivalent to Long Swords. The martial arts between the two styles are relatively similar. Sometimes Katanas were dual-wielded with wakizashi, while Long Swords would sometimes be dual-wielded with a dagger.

Sometimes Katanas are wielded with two hands, but sometimes you switch to one-hand for extra reach. Ditto with Long Swords (being used with "Bastard Sword" style)

------------

In all cases, the fetish with swords is universal across cultures. Polearms were the king of the battlefield in both the West and in the East... and the favored weapons of soldiers, and yet the stories all glorify sword-wielders. Swords were expensive in all cultures, and are therefore associated with the respective nobility class.

"1. Bond posits Yudkowski thinks that racism is mostly due to genetic difference, and not about the deliberate, mostly political disenfranchisement of minorities."

You don't need to take the author's word for it. Look at the article itself.

The article is not about the question of whether race affects intelligence. It's saying that that question is much less important than the fact that individuals have different IQ levels regardless of race. At least in the context of this article, which is asking whether "God is fair".

To make it crystal clear - Yudkowsky is saying:

1. Forget race. There are clear, obvious, and gigantic genetic differences in individuals which cause differences in intelligence.

2. This is "unjust".

3. We should be upset about this, and try to fix it.

That's all he's saying in that article - it is not at all racist.

If you think otherwise, please - quote the relevant part of the article and explain yourself.

I don't disagree with left parties policies - I am a Democrat, and would most likely for left-wing parties in most of Europe (or whoever is less xenophobic). I am against tyranny on the left or on the right. I don't like people who support the denigration / dehumanization / oppression of those who they disagree with and marginalize an entire group of people. I can cite you dozens of statements made by the likes of Jean-Paul Sartre, Arthur Scargill, Jan Myrdal, Doris Lessing, Andre Gide, Bertold Brecht, and other lesser known political leaders intellectuals in Western Europe (that is, the part not invaded by Soviets thanks to US intervention), that is supportive of Stalin / supportive of USSR. I am stating a fact, not using slurs.

I am also critical of the right (or anyone, really) that support dictatorial/oppressive governments in Latin America and the Middle East. I am pro individual freedom, liberty, and dignity. I am against people being enslaved either by their own state, or by an exploitative economy through the invisible chains of debt.

Well, there's "stripping out identifiers" and then there's "FBI-proof OPSEC" -- no one is going to run your word corpus through stylometric analysis, removing obvious links should be enough.

Makes me wonder if you could implement the exporting of a "review" version in LaTeX, similar to a debug mode -- set a flag, and any content with an {ID} wrapper around it gets left out or is substituted for something anonymous.
I totally agree with you. I actually think that's what Twitter was originally intended for. But I can't help but think about how a huge portion of Twitter has just devolved into a community of angry, underinformed, unqualified pseudo-activists releasing their rage into the abyss. It's amazing how a completely absurd and incorrect statement can be liked and retweeted thousands of times just because it makes for a good soundbyte. Anywhere else, that behavior would be shut down quick. But not on Twitter. It's almost as if the way the platform is designed encourages the behavior. There is no room for actual discussion, discourse, and statement validation. Just one absurd, oversimplified statement that's subsequently dismissed by an equally absurd and oversimplified reply from another user. Over and over again.

I don't think that Twitter was originally designed for real discussion and discourse, but it's become the Social Activist Platform™, and as such, discourse and discussion are almost necessities. In it's current state, however, it's 140 character format unfortunately aids and promotes ignorant and uninformed statements rooted in mob mentality, killing the possibility of any meaningful discussion or discourse, which could benefit many of the conversations that are occurring on the platform.

Twitter wasn't meant for discussion and discourse, but it's community seems to be demanding that it be exactly that.

That's just my (admittedly biased) take.

Compared to DBs browser code bases are lax and buggy beyond belief. Want to take a second and a gig of RAM opening a page? Go right ahead. Browser crashes? We're "sorry", wait for next release 2 weeks from now. No multitenancy. No having to deal with data of arbitrary size. No transactions. No writing anything complicated to disk. Etc, etc. You're comparing things that really require completely different levels of rigor, sophistication and engineering skill. Last I checked, BTW, all currently shipping browsers are written in C++.

I've been developing research software for +10 years and I experience this all the time.

As one example, over a decade ago I wrote a biological simulation program called CompuCell3D it was the successor to CompuCell, a 2D simulator of cells as cellular automata. Since then many papers have been written based on research utilising this software. Not only have I not been credited in any of these publications but my name has been removed from the software, the website never mentions my original contribution and the current maintainers of said software are not responding to my emails.

Granted this code has changed a lot over the years but there are still large parts of the code which are still verbatim from my original software. The researchers in this project see it as totally irrelevant that I wrote the original code because they value code creation MUCH less than their research.

This particular case is especially egregious but it is a good anecdotal example of the problem. Sometimes code is not as significant or as breakthrough as raw research. It really matters what kind of coding you are talking about. You don't necessarily credit the construction crew when dedicating a new building but you do credit the architect. Coders are under valued in today's research environment.

I think the argument of the urbanists is that land use pattern is designed to accommodate cars. Once that is no longer required (because people no longer need to own cars), there be no reason for the parking lots and driveways and all that, much of the suburbs become wasted space. Not sure if that will be considered an asset, rather, it will be a liability.

Unless you can live in one of the rich suburbs, there's very little "countryside" in the suburbs I know. Traffic yes, noise yes, plus houses are generally not even that far away from each other so all there isn't much privacy. If anything, you're on display more than anything. You arrive at home, and everybody has heard it, and seen it.

But certainly, you might be right. Suppose telecommuting and flex time gets adopted more, absolutely, it's possible the SDC saves the suburb. But the car has ruined city life for more reasons than just creating crappy commutes. The appeal of the suburbs is precisely because city streets being are so wretched due to being giving over to the car. Hence the appeal of a quiet cul-de-sac. Once the city is no longer lined by sewers for high-speed noisy, stinky, dangerous cars, the appeal of the city increases, and the appeal for the suburb correspondingly decreases, that's my bet (and many others' whose view I only parrot here, basically any new urbanist, traditionalist, most under 40 planners)
That's why everyone works seven days a week.
You're pretty much right here, but it's important to be clear that the article does not suggest restricting working hours, it suggests changing the norm in an unspecified way. Granted, in Britain this has always been done with restrictive laws. The norm used to be for 9 year olds to work in factories for 15 hours a day. This was changed progressively to reduce to a norm of 40 hours a week for adult males only, and then has included adult females and slowly been rising since.

There are ways other than just saying that people can't work more than 35 hours a week. You can require overtime loading, you can change bargaining laws, you can change the employment conditions of people employed directly by the government. This doesn't impinge on anyones freedom more than current laws (i.e minimum wage, health and safetly, child labour, non-discrimination)

It's also important to remember that the having "some tactical discretion", and "being aligned with their job’s goals" in your job is rare. Most people dislike their jobs and most jobs are pretty pointless. There's an equality issue here that isn't the one you're thinking about: more access to meaningful work? If there's only so many hours of meaningful paid work to be done, wouldn't it be better to sacrifice a bit of efficiency to have as many people as possible doing a smaller amount of this work?

It is really important to not confuse individual with collective reasoning. It's pretty clear from the article that it doesn't apply to all cases. (And from what I've heard, you're a famously extreme outlier here) Yes, there will be negative consequences to any change, but you don't make society wide changes by looking at outliers.

Sorry to reply to my own post. It bothered me that I literally knew no good substitute in English for "literally". Did some research, and the best that I found is the phrase "without exaggeration", which actually seems usable to me and might be more likely to be understood than "literally" is today.

"I got literally hundreds of bug reports today" may not be appreciated correctly (a listener who doesn't know me might think that I got 12 and I'm just whining), but "Speaking without exaggeration, I got hundreds of bug reports today" seems airtight.

Or maybe it's time to import >>wörtlich<< into English.
> The community would be forced to develop tools and documentation to judge new papers based on actual content and aggregated opinions

I think you've got it backwards. First make the good tools, then stop using the bad ones. You don't force people to develop good Bayesian spam filters by banning whitelists. Rather, the Bayesian spam filters get invented, then people are happy to stop using whitelists.

Likewise, scientists would love nothing more than to have the tools that enable a transparent frictionless utopia free to barriers to entry. They'd get access to a few new ideas caught in the spam filter! But we don't get there by anonymizing papers. That would just lead (almost instantly!) to good scientists whispering in the ears of their colleagues about which papers they just published, or to take a look at that new paper by so-and-so, etc. (And then the only people who could access the metadata would be those who are already at good institutions!)

Re 2: I'm not sure if you're trolling here. It's a fantastically complicated question and the economics has barely scratched the service. Strong proponents either side here, but there is certainly a lot of research linking inequality to poor social outcomes (higher crime, poor health) which in turn we tend to think negatively impact growth.
