What exactly do you mean by "synchronous"? Do you have a particular system in mind?

If you mean "block waiting for all replicas to respond", then the failure mode is quite different from Paxos. I don't know of one such system that can tolerate two simultaneous failures or network partitions, unlike Paxos.

It's not type erasure per se, but it's somewhat functionally equivalent. When you pass a function pointer (or pointer to member function) to bind(), it has to store that pointer in a member variable and perform an indirect call in operator(). In theory this is something that a compiler should be able to optimize away, but in practice they very rarely actually do, so using bind() as the argument for a STL algorithm typically does not result in the whole thing getting inlined out of existence. Lambdas, OTOH, are super easy to inline out of existence and compilers actually do so most of the time.
Thanks for answering! Other providers for OS X solutions are super dodgy / shutdown / involve time sharing (no imaging, you store everything into a personal Dropbox).

I ask about OS X support as the requirement for OS X to run Xcode kills a lot of iOS development workshops as the cost is to high / device availability is low.

Thanks again for taking the time to answer.
Exactly, that's an excellent summary. :)
FPGA programming and C++ aren't exactly mutually exclusive, right?

I would say yes: you can't really run C++ on an FPGA. There are all sorts of tools which promise this (SystemC etc), but it requires you to stick to a careful subset of language constructs. You don't have a heap, for example.
Part 2 of the argument is that they must be destroyed.
If this is under the MIT license, doesn't every project that uses it for initial scaffolding have to keep its license around?

No, it's just fast algorithmic trading, aka latency arbitrage. It's still quite risky and you don't have any special information anyone else doesn't have.
It wasn't CPS that took their kids away. It was the police who took them away and handed them to CPS.
You don't call anyone out. You just wait one to two generations. Once the community is mixed, physically, social mixing and diversity will occur. By keeping them physically separated you impede social integration.
G2 – The Grammar of Graphics
I think if (more likely, when) we get to the point where people can have an alibi in this way, it will quickly turn sour. When you're accused of a crime and you can't be located during that time, it'll be used to make you look guilty—not just neutral.
coincidentally, that's what I was doing in march, and... surprisingly, it sort of worked.

client had JAWS, and the JAWS installer read itself to me while it was installing - I was rather impressed. Had to reboot, and it never came up after that - assuming it was related, but never figured it out.

The NVDA screen reader did work, as well as the windows voice assistant thing itself. both would generate audio in the workspace, and I was hearing it over my el capitan local setup.
It's been done - see Gary Bernhardt's "The Birth and Death of Javascript".
> I would mention lawyers and lawsuits a lot more during the visit in this hospital and definitely sue them with a 500 pages long claim.

That would be idiotic, nonsensical and a very good way to make current and future interactions even worse. Hospitals are mandatory reporters, if they don't report suspicious situations (such as a pregnant mother failing a drug test) they're on the hook for it, and they must prepare for a possible NAS case which is anything but fun, or a walk in the park.

And despite the completely one-sided report, it looks like much of the antipathy came from her insisting on her "experience" and on e.g. breastfeeding the child.
"You neglect something I think is very important: You do not normally know up front what code will live and not."

It's actually mentioned in my post and the whole point.

"If you carefully (over-)engineer everything you will perhaps not get time"

This is true. You can spend vast amounts of over-engineering instead of hacking something together that's "perfect up front." This is a false dilemma, though, as simply taking a little more time to think about or improve some code can work wonders. Better instead of perfect. You will still output less code but you'll have more useful and correct code.
> As an example, replacing boost::bind with lambdas allowed the compiler to inline functor calls and avoided virtual function calls in a large code base I've been working with, improving performance.

And not just runtime performance; IME replacing bind() with lambdas typically significantly improves build time performance significantly. C++03 with C++11 features emulated via library trickery has terrible compile times compared to having the same features built in to the compiler.

Just review privacy settings, check for tags from friends, simple stuff.
"FPGA programming and C++ aren't exactly mutually exclusive, right?"

Currently they are exclusive. You can theoretically 'compile' some subset of C++ to an FPGA, but you very likely do not want to.

Of course C++ makes it a decent language to talk with a custom circuit in FPGA, but that's orthogonal.

edit: clarify
When Big Data just doesn't add up
Theoretically can't Facebook can create a similar app with about 99% accuracy?

On a tangential note, privacy is going to have interesting connotations as we build wearables and work to forget different ways of socially connecting them.
Well if it's pure black or white or sth like that, it's within the reach of brute-forcing.

Ideally it should be private and contain some amount of entropy.
The problem with modern C++ is that it wants to be everything. Now this behemoth is crushing under its own weight.

People who are not forced to use C++ should consider other languages which are way cleaner and even more performant. Code written in Ada and Nim for instance is much easier to maintain.
If I were the one "creating" this, why would I be "tired" of it? All I'd have to do to stop it would be to just... stop it. But it's not me.

Perhaps you're simply not as sensitized to it as me, since it is becoming rather a raw spot with me. Go back and read the article again, carefully. Note how all the explanations of difference are assumed to be essentially moral failings of westerners, to eat "properly" [1] or exercise. Note the ingrained assumption that if there's a difference between the isolated primitive and the Westerner, the Westerner is automatically in the wrong, be it in behaviors or gut biomes, which they actually have to remind themselves may not be true, though they don't actually come up with any other possible explanations.

Mind you, I don't disagree that there are dietary issues in the Western diet or that there are exercise issues, but it's still bad science to presume in advance those are the only explanations to be considered, be it explicitly assumed or implicitly assumed. There's a world of variables out there and we've barely begun to shine a light.

[1]: Can't resist scare quoting since a lot of the people telling us what is "proper" in the past 40-50 years have also been dead wrong and quite possibly the dominant reason we're eating wrong in the first place; if not the dominant reason then certainly a huge one.

The want for a traditional burial of some form isn't for the departed - as you say they have no need of it, it's so the family can grieve and have some form of closure and often a place to go and visit.

This is going to entirely depend on the family and is a very personal thing and not rational, but the widespread of emotional response to loss is anything but rational.

Myself I don't care what happens to my cadaver when I'm gone, but my family can deal with it as they please to bring whatever peace they need.
That's like telling someone upset about a cold meal not to blame the waiter because it could be the cook's fault. Who's at fault is not at issue. What's at issue is that the customer can only get problems solved when the company's reputation is at stake, which is a failure of integrity.
Swarm and the skeleton of Web 3.0
All I'm saying is, sure, privacy is comfortable and we are fond of it and we all have our insecurities, BUT... it's going away, whether we like that or not. And really, it never actually did exist. But that's okay because we should still be able to get along just fine without it (to the extent that any people on Earth ever did get along...) Moreover, I feel that we would actually be better off and able to move forward faster by giving up on concepts like privacy and security.

On what grounds? She failed a drug test and the hospital are mandatory reporters, I'd see the case instantly thrown out, and we only got her own side of the story.
I've built a small project using v2 and it really helped me get up to speed and learn some of the best practices for React front-end development.

I know someone who has done this when they were in high-school. Your first option is to have someone you know in common to introduce you.

If that is not possible, just write an email and suggest you can talk further on the phone or in person. Just ask and if they say no, go to the next.
Meanwhile, Bragi's wireless headphones have a microphone for pass-thru audio, and bluetooth connectivity. Coupled with a smartphone, I'm curious why an app for this doesn't already exist?
the issue isn't the mandatory reporting. The issue was the way they treated here AFTER the two known-to-be-spurious tests, neither of which were blood draws which are vastly more accurate.

So, yes, a lawsuit would be in order (IMO). I wouldn't ask for a huge payday, but at the very least that they clean up their testing procedures and follow protocols.
Whites in the south interact with African Americans all the time tho.
Sorry to be negative, but I'm not sure I understand what I should be outraged about. She tested positive for meth. The hospital advised her on all the things they probably advise to everyone else in that situation, they tested the baby for meth (came back negative), and they did an additional, more thorough test later (came back negative), and finally mom and dad are off to be parents. CPS was never even involved. I guess the article is about how a few nurses were mean and made her feel sad, because not much else seemed to happen.

If you really want to feel injustice and helplessness, why not try getting arrested for something you didn't do. Spend a few nights in jail, and deal with police, lawyers, judges, lose your job and friends because of it, find yourself on a bunch of lists you've never been on before, etc. That's what "being crushed by a system" is like.
That HN comment you linked to is _still_ just a nightmare scenario.

If you read the article, you would see that they are lying about what happened. Even your question, based on incorrect information, is implying a slippery slope.
>She wasn't "treated like a criminal" because she tested positive to a preliminary test. She was treated like a criminal because she insisted on breastfeeding her baby despite several positive test results.

She was treated like a criminal before giving birth, though.

How exactly do you get exposed to meth?

You're reading an awful lot into her desire to breastfeed her child.

Diode avalanche current has the same fundamental randomness (predicted by QM), and does not require radioactive elements.

Seems like only a year ago Docker changed how it used Virtualbox to boot VMs using machine (and caused me endless amounts of suffering trying to figure out how to fix it). Now it would seem they are getting rid of Virtualbox entirely with their own VM...which needs contributions.

I remember reading about micropayments as the future of the internet in the days before Google. It made sense when I was paying a penny a minute for internet access at 9600 baud [and using it mostly for gophering and email and usenet].

It appears that the protocol uses routing determined by the sender. If so, how big will my "hosts" file have to be. It also appears that each hop requires a tool. If so how do I route around "highway robbers".

More importantly, is there an implementation?
Where did I say that? You were listing good things to fight for. I was adding another one, not moving the goal post. You might exercising some charity and tone down your reactions.

If she did not breastfeed for the first 2 weeks it's unlikely she'd be able to start suddenly, her milk might simply have dried up. My wife wasn't able to breastfeed 1 of our 5 children and this alone caused her a degree of post-natal depression through feeling guility (no depression with the other 4).

I suspect you're male and don't have children, talk to mothers about the importance of breast feeding to them, you'll find this isn't a subject to be logical over.
Possibly its not his code. For a good time go to github and look for blowfish implementations in C and try to figure out which are original and which are cut and paste of Schneier. Schneier of course offers a blowfish written by him in C with no license or patent so if its cut and pasted into a licensed larger project you got problems. Or you can reimplement and put your reimplementation under your own choice of license, possibly not as well as Schneier.

Another good reason for no license is a very nice and polite "go away". This is just to show I use social media to get a checkmark on some hiring list and get a job and has no purpose beyond that.
This is almost the exact VM spec I use in VMware Fusion.

You can basically do anything at all with it, including include it in a more restrictive licensing setup. The only constraint is that you must include the original license/copyright notices.

I agree with the author; I still long for the not-overly-complicated C++ back in the 00s I could write super-fast 3D rendering engine without much bloat. I find it very appalling when C++ went from a poster child of imperative programming to implementing monads in its libraries (mind you, monads are used to "simulate" imperative programming in functional programming). Something went wrong there...

Not to beat a dead horse but this boilerplate issue is one of the biggest values of ember-cli, and the main reason I advocate for it over most of the other frameworks.

I don't want to spend days figuring out my asset pipeline, build scripts, and implementation of flux/gulp/grunt/webpack/broccoli blah blah.

It's good those choices exist, but I don't care about the differences enough anymore, I just want to build my app. Plus, you lose the sense of common solutions when there's this much variance.

angular has adopted ember-cli into angular-cli – any plans by the react community to do this?

Neuroners: The awakening
I've yet to read "Seveneves", but I felt the prologue to Alastair Reynolds' "Blue Remembered Earth" was very moving too. It involves our protagonists coming across a left-over AI tank, long buried. A sort of futuristic take on land-mines disguised as toys.

There's also some rather nightmarish scenarios in Richard Morgan's series about Takeshi Kovacs (I enjoyed beginning in the middle, with "Woken Furies") involving weaponized nano technology.

Neither are world-ending, but touches IMHO on some of the same things.
A short novel on mind transplantation
Jibbigo was doing decent voice-to-voice translation entirely locally back in the iPhone 3GS days. You still had all the usual pitfalls of voice recognition and machine translation, but it was good enough to be useful.

Your FAQ link isn't loading for me (hugged to death?) but I watched the video on the page HN links to here and I see nothing in it that's infeasible. As with any voice recognition and machine translation product, you'll probably need to be patient and tolerant of many errors, and I wouldn't be surprised if they gloss over that, but it could still be useful.

Edit: the FAQ finally loaded. I don't see anything particularly remarkable in there. There are no promises for battery life, speed, or accuracy. The basic premise of offline voice-to-voice translation is totally doable and has been done.

Sorry to hear about your mother. Do you have a relationship with her now?
> ... when we, as engineers, design systems, we have to remember edge cases like these, we need to remember the person.

Well said.

I'll only add that this concern needs to extend all the way back to the initial decision to start designing a system. Technology can have a large impact on people simply by existing; it's worth taking the time to consider what that impact will be and how it will affect people, even the edge cases.

This is becoming increasingly important as the effects of technology start to reverberate through the foundations of society. This makes the popular attitude of only considering the technology increasingly irresponsible; there is "No Neutral Ground in a Burning World"[1].

You don't merge from the boilerplate. Once you've started, that's it.

Boilerplates exist because, quite honestly, modern web/JS development is a hot mess. First, setting up a new project is the definition of analysis paralysis -- too many options and microdecisions. Second, there's a new library or a new, breaking update to your existing framework every other week. When you're busy actually working on a project, it's hard (and useless) to keep up with all the changes. So if you work on something for, say, 2 months, the next time you need to start something new, it's likely you'll have to spend some time updating your own project base and making sure dependencies work the way they're supposed to. Things will probably have changed in unclear ways.

Unless you're reusing a stack that might be out of date/not maintained anymore, the time from "start project" to "start actually coding" when starting a new web project is terrible.

Having a boilerplate to start from relieves you of all that stress, since you know it's more or less maintained and guaranteed to work out of the box.

A few years ago I'd never have started from boilerplates. I'd look up examples for certain patterns, but always start from scratch, many times reusing some of my own stuff. Nowadays, my approach is the opposite: I take a boilerplate with the combination of things I need, and change it a bit, adding or removing things here and there.
The adoption of the approach ember-cli took over a year ago by both React & Angular (angular-cli) is to me the strongest validation of the relative architectural maturity of Ember over its competitors.

Ember has demonstrated singular organisational maturity - stable and consistent release process, standardised build tools, high quality documentation, excellent deprecation warnings & clear upgrade paths. It allows teams to focus on delivering value without prevaricating about build pipelines and trust that the whims of the maintainers won't result in months of rewriting at arbitrary intervals.

Equally it's been pressure and progress from React on render speed that's helped push along Ember's Glimmer engine, long may the ecosystem and healthy competition drive innovation!
