Redesigning New Year's Resolutions
OS containers will require more than just the application you want sandboxed. This is true for Solaris Zones, FreeBSD Jail, Linux OpenVZ or LXC (Linux Containers). And that's fine because the concept is akin to running a VM across a shared kernel rather than abstracting the hardware via a hypervisor. So you're effectively chrooting a sub-OS inside the host.

As for your comments regarding Solaris, I was using Solaris Zones about a decade ago and, inversely to your experience, I found the whole process really easy. In fact it was on Solaris where I first learned about OS containers and which really convinced me to adopt them to many other projects over the years since.

To be honest, it is really weird reading your comment as my experiences couldn't differ more. If your memory is up to the job, I'd be curious to read more detail about the issues you had.

Search for chromecast or apple tv.

Amazon isn't worried about you buying another stick, they are worried about you buying into a competitor's ecosystem.

Chromecast users are less like to use amazon video than prime stick customers

Apple TV users are more likely to use itunes for media than prime stick users.

Roku it at least agnostic about ecosystem, compared to apple tv and chromecast.

> 'The National Academy of Sciences’ report is the first attempt by a panel of experts to set a safe intake level for trans fat. The panel found that, like saturated fat, trans fat promotes heart disease. Furthermore, the panel concluded that the only safe intake of trans fat is ‘zero.’ However, because it would be impractical to eliminate all trans fat from the diet, the panel recommended that people consume as little trans fat as possible. Yet it is currently impossible for consumers to follow the panel’s advice because the Food and Drug Administration does not require trans fat to be listed on Nutrition Facts food labels.

Please, don't recommend people eat animal products for beneficial properties of trans fat. It's just scientifically untenable.
Yahoo has delivered some great tech APIs and products. YUI, Pipes, Grids, a lot of the big data projects now at Apache, etc.

I have such respect for the dev teams that put out these products. Similar to a lot of companies with great engineering, it's such a shame that all their great work wasn't able to be better leveraged due to the short-sighted MBA culture that can't see past next quarter's stock price and bonus.

> Generally i think companies leverage data to ratchet rates upwards, not offer unsolicited discounts. Why invest in infrastructure that will reduce profit?

Because it's a competitive market, and if they don't offer competitive rates, other insurers will take all their market share.

I'm really not seeing how this isn't obvious. If there's a clearly more efficient way of doing insurance rates, companies can either adopt it, or die at the hands of the ones who do.

First off, that prime age employment graph is a problem. The best way to lie with a graph is to fuck with the scale, so unless your intentionally misrepresenting data, your graphs should start at 0.

Secondly, his reasoning is, as he says,

"Back before 2008, I used to teach my students that during a disturbance in the business cycle, we'd be 40 percent of the way back to normal in a year."

Yet, this has never been the case after a major crash. Not in 2008, nor '99, '87, '78, etc. Compared to history, we are doing a bit better than previous recoveries.

Sounds like he's just pissed off that the US is the doing well despite not following his political beliefs regarding economic policy. It's like a preacher on the street corner talking about how we are all on the path to hell, despite all evidence to the contrary.

However, once you do accidentally have a child, the results are often not pretty, and I will feel bad watching as you deal with the consequences of your poorly thought out decision.

Regarding programming, I can't see the relationship you make at all.

If you write a good program, well good job. If you write a bad program, you are probably going to write a better one next time. (Ever look back at your old code?)

It takes practice to get good, and the more we work at it, the better we'll get. Just keep trying.
Many states (including Kansas, where I used to live) have enforceable minimums as well as maximums on major highways. All states can pull over and ticket vehicles for, in the judgment of an officer, traveling at a speed slow enough to be unsafe (witness the stories a little while back about self-driving cars getting into trouble for obstructing traffic by being too slow). In recent years there's been a big push to begin enforcing this on highways, largely because of the rise of road-raging self-appointed "enforcers" who try to force other traffic to obey their personal interpretations of traffic laws.

And in all 50 states it is now some type of infraction to be anywhere but the rightmost lane when travelling slower than other traffic, even if by "slower" you mean "exactly the posted limit". This year-old article has some notes on the left-lane stuff, including the fact that yes, you could be ticketed for doing 65 in a 65 if the passing traffic is doing 80 and your slower driving is interfering with that:

http://www.vox.com/2014/6/16/5804590/why-you-shouldnt-drive-...

And also points out what was already well-known to everyone except vigilante traffic rangers: that doing only the speed limit, when everyone else is faster, is demonstrably unsafe.
1) Build a network of experts you can rely on for evaluation

2) A lot of what makes a startup good or bad translates across different domains, so even if you can't evaluate the technology yourself, you can still evaluate other things (e.g. how well the founders communicate, how quickly they get things done, etc.)

Key point above for me.

The worst schools in America tend to almost always not hold students to any standard, with all bad behaviors excused via certain political talking-points that deflect blame onto everyone else (everyone but the student and the parent).
Threats to digital freedoms evolve over time, so advocacy needs to evolve as well. Right now one of the biggest threats is a propaganda/framing war to get people to associate anti-consumer technologies (bandwidth restrictions, opt-out defaults, snooping) with "good", and pro-consumer technologies (encryption, neutral customer-controlled packet prioritization) with "evil" or "selfishness".

The EFF seems to recognize this and is acting accordingly.
Just curious, what do you think any of this has to do with Solow? Brad Delong was mistaken about certain shocks within the framework of the 'Keynesian' model - the Solow model is about how investment, capital and productivity (enabled by technology) sets long-run output.

I'd like to see some energy spent on trying to get the hit rate higher. I'm sorry to see the 5% or 10% hit rate become conventional wisdom in venture land (outside of obvious moonshots). Companies going through YC have enormous resources and I think we should hope for a higher percentage of "hits". I know, easier said than done.
"Obsolete" is a very strong word for bcrypt. MD5 is an obsolete hash function and needs to be avoided because it's vulnerable to practical attacks. That's not the case with bcrypt; rather, in the 15+ years since Mazieres and Provos introduced bcrypt, people have refined the idea.

You can throw a dart to pick any of the password hashes, including PBKDF2 (the worst of them), and you'll be just fine.
While I am sure that Sony has code that they keep proprietary, its worth noting that thy have contributed quite a bit back to FreeBSD (AVX support comes to mind) as well as LLVM.
You are correct, but personally I see it as a good thing. Driving is by far the most dangerous thing an average person does on a regular basis. No other regular activity could easily get you or someone else killed if you stop paying close attention for a second or so, and tens of thousands of people (in the US) do die every year in traffic crashes. Therefore, market pressure towards safer driving is a good thing.
That's a 100-generation result and not expected to be that great, they do get better with more training.
If that had been the issue, they could have gotten the superfish certificate signed by anyone. You don't exactly need an inside man to get an SSL cert these days.
Nope, I don't think this is it. The problem with lxc, jails, zones, is that of shipping the state of the containers. Docker solves this with the registry. I think that they would each be as successful (or more-so as the tech is more baked in) if they had a better developer story.

Being able to docker pull/commit/push is what made docker so popular with developers. The "alternatives" all seem to lack this. I almost see it like I see dpkg vs apt-get. You can do what you need with a pile of deb files and dpkg -i, but why, when you can simply apt-get install? Same concept.
If the behavior is not predictively relate increased claims activity, then it wouldn't be penalized. They won't just say "driving 5 mph over the speed limit on the highways raises rates" for no reason. The reality is probably though, at some speed increase above the posted limits there is a relationship with claims activity. If that limit is 4 mph or 10 mph, I think it's fair to charge more.

And can car computers tell if blinkers are on? At some point, changing without signaling is likely to be trackable if it isn't already. Ultimately, clueless driving will leave trackable indicators. This is driving, it's behavior based, and the outcomes are observable.

At any rate, I hope this makes usage-based insurance more common. I currently use MetroMile as my car insurer, which charges per mile of car usage. I'm a city-driver, my miles are insanely low. I'm glad to be benefiting from smarter, behavior-based insurance even if it is in its infancy.
Same answer. It's all CPUs, bus width, and address space. Consumer devices are not special.
If someone's being rude to me I don't mind being a little condescending.
Well, sure, but how the compiler calls into libclang/LLVM isn't the difficult issue here. The more interesting issue is how, conceptually, the Swift or Rust compiler would use libclang to interoperate with C++ in a foreign environment. Once that's established, writing C bindings to whatever part of libclang is necessary should be straightforward.
At this point, I don't believe I would pick up another google service because sooner or later they're going to close it down.

Indeed. They had a lot of "new and put into practice" things - a new engine design, a new way to manufacture rockets, a new way to manufacture engines (were any other operational engines 3D printed before?). They improved on quite a lot of things. But "firsts"? Not many indeed.
So point out where the article is wrong.

There is real danger in aiming for that. The way to make the hit rate higher is to fund safer bets, which are usually not what generate the giant returns.

I'd like to the "slugging percentage" be higher, but I think the hit rate is perhaps already too high.

clang has a -Weverything flag that, unlike "-Wall", will enable all compiler warnings. This includes possibly contradictory warnings. :) For new C code, -Weverything is a good place to start.

Unlike gcc, clang does not have good documentation for its warning options. The best sources I've found are the clang code itself (https://github.com/llvm-mirror/clang/blob/master/include/cla...) and http://fuckingclangwarnings.com/.

FDR tried lots of thing that had the opposite of the intended effect.

Invoking the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917, Roosevelt declared that "all banking transactions shall be suspended." Banks were permitted to reopen only after case-by-case inspection and approval by the government, a procedure that dragged on for months. This action heightened the public's sense of crisis and allowed him to ignore traditional restraints on the power of the central government.

In their understanding of the Depression, Roosevelt and his economic advisers had cause and effect reversed. They did not recognize that prices had fallen because of the Depression. They believed that the Depression prevailed because prices had fallen. The obvious remedy, then, was to raise prices, which they decided to do by creating artificial shortages. Hence arose a collection of crackpot policies designed to cure the Depression by cutting back on production. The scheme was so patently self-defeating that it's hard to believe anyone seriously believed it would work.

-- snip --

Yet after all this, the grand promise of an end to the suffering was never fulfilled. As the state sector drained the private sector, controlling it in alarming detail, the economy continued to wallow in depression. The combined impact of Herbert Hoover's and Roosevelt's interventions meant that the market was never allowed to correct itself. Far from having gotten us out of the Depression, FDR prolonged and deepened it, and brought unnecessary suffering to millions.

What will be the ultimate result of the interventions you propose? How are we examining the long-term effects of government intervention in the economy and cutting back the government where it is harmful to prosperity?

What about the acute depression of 1920[2]? Are we learning any lessons from that?

A big reason is that governments have to be accountable to the public. We ourselves create quite a lot of pressure that creates the waste. That, and of course a lot of people inside and outside governments who try to steal something. See for example procurement and bids in public projects.

If "bro" is gender-neutral, I'm pretty confused about that whole "bros before hoes" thing.
I totally agree. As I mentioned in a sibling comment, maybe the right solution is for Swift and Rust to solve the problem together by using libclang in the same way.

To be concrete, I could envision some sort of bolt-on "inline C++" feature that libclang would expose to all LLVM-based languages. It wouldn't have to be principled interop any more than Objective-C++ is principled interop. It'd just need to get the job done.

>Interest in FreeBSD seems to be on the rise, with the advent of systemd.

I don't buy this, why would someone who complains about the consolidation and standardisation of core tools/services in Linux want to move to FreeBSD which does exactly the same as it is a full operating system and only supports what they ship, anything else you are on your own, just like what we get with standardising around systemd across distros.

The choice/flexibility which is potentially lost if the entire Linux ecosystem embraces systemd was never available on FreeBSD in the first place, what standardising around systemd is doing is moving Linux distros closer to one of the often touted advantages of choosing one of the BSD distros, which is a standard set of core tools/services which can be targeted (however in Linux's case it is across distros as opposed to the BSD's where it is per-OS).
