Intel Xeon funding and lots of ecosystem it uses came from other CPU's that cost less. So, I'd say POWER needs such benefits that come from lower-end if Xeon needed it to get where it is. POWER actually needs more since it's way the heck behind Xeon in balance of price, performance, and capabilities in SW.

I think a tragedy of the commons is a better description of the problem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tragedy_of_the_commons) than the Prisoner's dilemma (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prisoner%27s_dilemma). Individual home owners in the cities and towns dotting the Bay Area are still better off not coöperating with each other to increase housing supply.

Increasing the hash size doesn't fix the unhappy bucket, but it does reduce chance that packets will ever hit it. So yes, traversal of this bucket will be slow, but it will be hit less often.

It doesn't get talked about as much anymore, but the scroll wheel on the original iPods really was a fantastic interface... it turned something obnoxious (tapping arrows to move through a really long list) into something easy and comfortable. I'm very glad the idea is still being used.

You already have SF placing a maximum (not a minimum) amount on how much parking is built per new housing unit. Theoretically people are supposed to use mass transit more as a result, but the city government repeatedly cripples SFMTA, as I understand it.
Thanks for this, so much information here.
Most of these seem extremely simple. I would like to see some examples where a good database schema isn't so obvious.
So are things 'bound to star' checked somewhere else in the path? I don't understand why the hash table wouldn't just have entries for each of the receiving connections still.

Video is extremely overrated as a medium. It's not searchable, it's not quotable, and it takes forever to consume compared to reading. I read a dozen(s) or more articles in a day, and generally watch zero videos per week.
The folly with arguments blaming San Francisco for the problem is the fact that the entire Bay area is priced at an insane level.

Take another look at this [1] BART map with corresponding home prices for each stop. Yeah, it's cheaper to live outside of the city, but it's still crazy expensive. The median sale price for a house in Pittsburg is $430,000, with a 62 min commute into SF. If you live 62 minutes outside of say, Pittsburgh PA, you can certainly expect your median home will cost ~$120,000 or less [2].

It's been my experience that while square footage cost may go down outside the city, you really end up paying around the same rent for a larger space. So if you can't afford a $3000/mo rent in the city, you probably still can't afford the $2800/mo rent you'll pay in Daly City.

I expect what would really happen if SF just went all in building new housing, is that prices would drop in the city slightly, allowing people to move back into the city, thus increasing demand and increasing prices back to where they were. The places where rent would drop are the suburbs, where people were pushed out to initially.

A way to look at it would be that SF's sphere of rent influence would end up shrinking, but the magnitude of the epicenter remains unaffected.

If Oakland city leaders were more proactive, they might use their 90 day rent hike / eviction moratorium[1] to recruit modular builders and create zoning exceptions for this type of housing. $600/month would be a lifesaver as median rent in Oakland hits $2950 for a two-bedroom. (It would also probably be a cheaper way for SF to house the homeless than acquiring or building new SROs.)

On the other hand, what evidence supports the need to avoid "mildly spoiled food"? We could do with a bit of healthy skepticism over the seriousness of spoiling, expiration dates, defects, refrigeration, or molds and bacteria in our food. We'd probably save more food and maybe cut back on excessive sugar and salt intake(common preservatives) if we had a better understanding of what can and can't be eaten raw, rotten, and less than perfect.
The problem you run into is that housing (the land, really) is both a useful object and a rather solid investment. It's that dual functionality that makes it a different problem from disposable objects (iPhones and cars, as examples). Very few cars or phones are purchased as investments directly (meaning you see the value appreciate). Housing is almost exclusively an investment, both for finances (whether collecting rent or being able to leverage the value down the road) and for the land it sits on.

A world where most housing becomes disposable (i.e. it is not directly tied to the land it sits on) would be very different from the one we currently live in.
I'm glad you like it!

[Answer] Yep, Euler: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMS_Euler
The web could certainly use an alternative to the HTML / CSS / JS stack. The paradigm is just so awkward nowadays for how it's used that we invent new web frameworks almost daily to make working on the web less awkward. So there is certainly a need for an alternative, in my opinion, that can offer better performance, device access and most importantly a less awkward development cycle. Plus local storage sucks.

Having said that, like others mentioned security is a huge, huge, huge hurdle to getting this right. However I don't think that automatically means it wouldn't work. On the contrary many new technologies start out as being very insecure.

I think the real hurdle is adoption. In order to use your technology stack a user would have to install a new type of browser (messaging around this may prove difficult) and a developer would have to dedicate to writing something in your stack. Granted if you're looking at React Native then you're likely thinking JavaScript here so that makes it easier but it's yet another platform for a developer to learn. Most companies need to be present on the web, android, ios and sometimes beyond that onto windows, mac os x and maybe even into IoT devices. Adding your platform to that list is going to be tough.

No, there has been no evidence.

Yes, consuming high amounts of fructose on a daily basis has some serious side effects. Consuming the same amount of glucose doesn't.

This just means that the amount of fructose intake should be moderated.

Seems to be that the majority of this community believes there are concept such as healthy food, unhealthy food, superfood etc. These concepts are scientifically non-existent.

There's such a thing, scientifically, as an unhealthy diet and healthy diet.

Sugar can be a part of a healthy diet. So can hamburgers, so can everything else.

There's been bunch of evidence for UK and Australia (where fructose intake decreased over the years) but they still got fatter and fatter.

Sugar tax is idiotic.

> None of this information is particularly secret or sensitive.

You are intentionally being obtuse if you don't see how a fingerprint database is "sensitive". The argument doesn't take practicality into consideration, potential bad actors just jumped from:

1) The government

2) Anybody who would go through the trouble of very noisily pulling all the scattered public data together

To:

1) Anybody

While I am of the opinion that any data held by a third part (to include the government) should be considered insecure, that doesn't blind me to the practical impact of a massive data dump.

Wrong. I maintained ~1200 calorie life style for several extended periods after losing my initial weight in an effort to get rid of the last 10sh lbs of fat with no success. If its simply calories in vs out then I would have succeeded several times over. It's not simply in vs out in some cases which is what I'm trying to point out and what

"I guess moving is a lot easier - just find a rack in another location."

I disagree. Why would I want to keep my pod, crane it down, put it on a truck and ship it to a new rack? Presumably I'd need to box up all my things that would get shaken around and broken in transit. It'd be easier to just put all those boxes in a truck and then unpack them in my new apartment.

The construction cost isn't the factor driving up rents, it's the market, location and the zoning.

They're very pretty little units, but I'm not sure they do much to solve the underlying affordability problem.
Yes, that is more or less true, the problem you would run into is communication between cores. When you have lots of cores you run into problems if they all want to talk to the same memories. If they were could all run more or less independently there is no real issues. The reason I list LUT4s, is newer chips have ALMs which is definitely apples to oranges. Also there Cyclone IV chips with much more than 22K LUTs.
Props to you for organizing a discussion as a first step. And best of luck solving the problem. If I still lived in the Bay Area, I'd show up for support.
Thanks for writing the JOE editor. I've been using it for simple text editing tasks (commit messages, etc.) now that I've moved over to a Linux system. I appreciate its simplicity.
But then you get the counter argument from people like Dave McClure who speak pretty actively against this style for most investors, implying they should be investing in way more companies at earlier stages (also I highly suggest avoid calling it a "shotgun" approach unless you want to piss him off).

There's a reason 500 Startups [edited out "he" and replaced with firm name - although he is also a prolific individual angel] tops the league tables for most active early stage investments every year, because they believe a lot of VCs are wrong.

There is only one listener bound to star, instead of 16k listeners for every IP. Thus, the hash bucket mapping to port 53 has only one entry instead of 16k.

It works out the same for the application: 1 fd or 16k fds doesn't really matter if you're using epoll, and that single fd can accept connections to any of those 16k IP addresses.

Traffic is a big problem -- as is parking. Public transit investments do have to correspond with building housing, but too often the lack of one is used as an excuse not to expand the other. We have to start somewhere.

As I said in the post, public transit deserves it own analysis -- I was already in the thousands of words just on housing! -- maybe that will be next.

There is no evidence. This whole thread is filled with misinformation and anecdotal evidence. The article lays its foundation on Lustig claims while his Bitter Truth talk had outright wrong claims.

There have been studies pointing out fruits even help decrease symptoms of diabetes.

http://nutritionj.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1475-28...

The conclusion of the randomized study above was that the intake of fruit should not be restricted, despite the fear that sugar makes you die.

http://www.cabdirect.org/abstracts/19711408038.html;jsession...

This one has a mainly fruit diet for its participants. 2500kcal of fruits per day. No one had any serious side effects.

These "not man-made", paleo, keto, low-carb and other diets are all fads. All of them. They promote an unhealthy relationship with food. Not unhealthy as in philosophy but unhealthy scientifically (orthorexia + the humongous evidence that food is not poison).

It's a much higher chance that the American population is extremely orthorexic and that they avoid fruits and veggies thinking that pesticides and sugar will kill them. This unhealthy relationship results in overeating highly caloric foods like meat, dairy, eggs, drinks etc.

One thing that modern CS programs should give you is more insight into the engineering and craftsmanship side of programming. Also, I think most of techniques we use to build distributed systems today were built way after the 90s. Think of the all the stuff google invented, plus other significant systems paxos, etc. In the 70s they were trying to build scalable relational databases, now we can build things that scale much more, and it's not just hardware, it is the techniques to handle them.

All that stuff might not matter if you are most startups, because they don't need to build that huge shit usually, you can just use someone else's infrastructure.
I had associated it with survivors/metaphysical guilt. It's similar to the guilt that survivors feel when an accident happens and injures/kills others but not them. It's not that we did anything wrong to be ashamed of, but instead almost a guilt about being lucky or being who we are.

It's an interesting phenomenon and I've begun studying it more after moving out of Silicon Valley and suddenly realizing how very privileged I really am. A specific point is that generally you can't discharge the guilt just by doing good things. Donations and volunteer work don't seem to help because there's nothing to atone for.

Nice.

I remember that eight or ten years ago, there were a lot of blog posts dedicated to sharing nice tricks and hacks to work around the limitations of CSS and browser implementations. Some techniques even got catchy names[1] and some of their authors became quite popular.

I dreamed of coming with a clever technique myself that would buy me some 15 minutes of internet fame after being published in A List Apart or something. Unfortunately my poor english skills at the time crushed my dreams.

Since CSS3 became the norm and browsers got better I stopped
seeing such articles. I supposed we have CSS pretty much figured up. Anyway, all I wanted to say is that this post made me nostalgic and I actually learned something today.

That's too bad about the age limit. You could change to a program that you can complete by the time you're 22, but I'm sure you've considered that.

> I do not think i have another chance of getting 100K like that again.

I certainly am in no position to make recommendations (nobody is), so I'll add some general observations:

1) You'll have other chances at $100K (if you're someone who has the skills to build companies). It's a good opportunity, but $100K investments aren't once-in-a-lifetime for a moderately successful entrepreneur. In fact, I would guess that the social capital, the network, is worth far more (and will yield far more investment than $100K).

2) Life will not work out at all like you plan. That doesn't at all mean that you shouldn't pursue goals and dreams, but I wouldn't be too rigid about any particular opportunity or outcome as the only option, do-or-die. Most startups fail; many others end up doing things their founders never expected. And life is much more than startups and work. Enjoy the ride.

I hope whatever you choose turns out to be a fantastic experience.

Yeah. In Palo Alto my crappy 1 bedroom apartment that I was living in 3 years ago was in the middle of suburban jungle (no restaurants or shops for a few miles in any direction) and was $1650. I looked last week and it was $2500. That was a crappy place.

If you want to live by downtown PA (university Ave) its right around $2800-3000 for a 1 bedroom, for places with 20 year old appliances and no upgrades.

The peninsula is just as bad because of school preferences, etc.

New engineers getting hired in MV and PA literally can't afford to live by themselves in a 1 bedroom. That is fucked.
Though I agree with your sentiment 100%, from an advertising point of view, video is looked at as a 'holy grail' situation because it can attack two of our most vulnerable senses simultaneously - visual and sonic.

Audio ads are seen as highly effective, especially if the ad is a testimonial from a respected radio/podcast personality. Video can still do plenty well with the viewer planting their eyes firmly onto the screen, but when the viewer decides not to there's still the audio, hassling us to get our subscription to BarkBox or whatever.

> IntelliJ 15

That is not the most recent release of IntelliJ so it's at least one version behind. I should also note that IntelliJ has abandoned the version number name, the newest versions of the IntelliJ IDEs have the year now. The most recent IntelliJ IDEA is IntelliJ IDEA 2016.

That such a widely use fork of IntelliJ is behind a version is important for plugin developers who will be held back from adopting new features if they want to support Android Studio.

I think IntelliJ 15 shipped with its own JRE so it may be possible to write plugins in Java 8 instead of Java 6 for Android Studio though, so if that's true that's nice.
