> i don't know how the 23 microseconds you got there relate to this

1 / (60 Hz * 700) = 23.8 microseconds. (Yeah, should have rounded up to 24).

What worked for me in the past was just concatenating (well, memcpying) executable filter blocks of x86 code while ensuring parameters were in the right registers.

Loop start block -> filter 1 -> filter 2 -> filter 3 ... -> loop end block.

I made these blocks by processing specifically compiled (not at runtime, but ahead of time) functions, stripping prologues and epilogues. There's more to it, but it's been a while.

Crude, but effective and fast even when each filter step was pretty small on its own.

If you think anti-gun-rights advocates attributing gun ownership to "mental instability, sexual inadequacy, lack of a conscience, or what-have-you " is a strawman, you might like to read this link: http://blog.joehuffman.org/category/markley-s-law/ It's a blog category of hundreds of posts of Twitter users stating just that, usually in rather crude terms.

Or just read this thread.

For some reason, anti-gun-rights people seem to love to talk about how to take people's guns, and then call gun owners paranoid for thinking that people want to take their guns.
With an elitist attitude and terms like 'you people' you are sounding like someone who would fit that profile. There are 8 million+ ar15s in civilian hands and how many people have been killed by them?
But there is no guarantee all sites will use the same values or even give the values the same meaning: One might write "customer_email_address", another "e-mail-address-of-customer". A third one has separate input fields for the parts before and after the "@" and uses "email-address-name" and "email-address-host" respectively...

So in the end, if everyone followed the advice and used "semantic" values, this would likely lead to the same problems that HTML already had with semantic class names, rel values and meta tags. The discussions about them fill mailing list archives. I don't see why all this should be repeated, even more so as the problem of semantically annotating your elements is already solved.

But in this case it's even weirder as that was presented as a way to tell Chrome "please don't autocomplete". So if that's the real motivation, then sites are likely to just put some variant of "really-really-off", or just random strings in it without any regard to "semantics".

Agree. In fact, that's the main motivation behind this bot is to ensure that we don't use Slack for everything.

But, it goes beyond that. We also realized that Slack wasn't a productivity enhancer, it was a bonding catalyst. And realizing that helped us steer conversations away from Slack.

In other words, Slack for us is the equivalent of what would be considered water cooler talk.

I think the part that is transparent is that you're not going to build your career and retire at Netflix, you know it's a stint.

But anybody who has been paying attention has known that any job is "just a stint" since at least the 90's, if not the 80's. A big part of the Re-engineering[1] push of the 90's involved reducing costs, at least in part by reducing head-count. And before that, you had the 80's LBO[2] craze, which resulted in dramatic layoffs at many companies.

As a Gen-X'er who grew up in the 80's, I have never expected to have a life-long career at a single company, and I can't imagine many - if any - of my peers imagining that either. In this regard, there's nothing unique at Netflix. All jobs are essentially "temp" jobs in this day and age.

Check out "Designing Data-Intensive Applications" by Martin Kleppmann - http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920032175.do. It's still work-in-progress, but covers a big chunk of distributed systems material, is up to date and has good reviews. You can read the 10 out of 12 chapters via Safari Books Online.

The downside is that I pre-ordered the book in November, expecting it in April and it now shows November of this year as the release date on Amazon. I'd be surprised to get it this year at all. Haven't found other books of similar scope and recency though, so I guess I'll wait some more.

Are you surprised because it is risky to be illegal, or because it is unethical to be illegal?

The practical legality of marijuana in many states is now basically the same as the practical legality of, oh, unlicensed transportation providers. You could be in trouble if someone wants to crack down -- and as demonstrated in Austin, this is distinctly plausible. And you could ask the same question: if I contract with a driver, and they refuse to do unlicensed pickups, can I actually get any restitution in court?

(Yes, I know that YC itself hasn't invested in the major unlicensed-transportation-provider startups. But I really don't think that's because they found them too risky.)

I liked the article and have more of an appreciation for those that enjoy guns. For myself I never understood why people would need or want anything more than a small pistol, which this opened my eyes to the other side.

But serious question (and apologies if I missed it), what is wrong with making it harder to buy a gun? Is it true that I could go to a gun show and pretty much walk out with one that same day? What is wrong with just having a more stringent background check and/or classes before one can own a gun? (This may be the case in some states).
I can see why you might want to say that I proved your point, but I don't think I did. If mag capacity has no effect on round count (and hence body count), then enacting a ban on a commonly available accessory and legislating some elaborate (and as yet unspecified) set of design changes to a few million existing weapons seems like a pretty silly proposal.

You have to realize that banning AR-15 will be just a beginning. Next, they will ban all semi-automatic rifles that are capable of using high-capacity magazines. Then, they will ban all semi-automatic firearms, including pistols (which, incidentally, are easier to conceal), as well as any firearms with magazine capacity over 2 rounds. It is not hard to imagine where this will end. At the same time, in some European countries, where gun laws are rather liberal, the rate of crimes with the use of firearms is low.

What difficulty did you encounter? I've had a pool running since ~2009, originally as 4x750GB, then 4x3TB in 2013, and I recall that the transition was excellent. As oofabz said, the trick is to enable "autoexpand", which can be done even after creation. In fact, I recall that I had replaced each drive, initially seeing no increase in capacity, but after enabling autoexpand the new space was immediately available.

1) It would be ridiculously unfair to people that would benefit from AI most: 6 billion of poor people living lives that are unimaginably unpleasant to a western person.

2) Hype about "superintelligent AI coming soon" is pretty much unfounded, current deep learning approaches have a lot of limits, hardware progress stalled as well (moore's law is officially dead). AI technology is like a fragile flower on a life support, it is so weak you can easily kill it with regulation and FUD. Instead of questioning if we suddenly achieve "real AI" one could wonder if the tech will ever reach any level of moderate general AI, considering the death of moore's law.

3) Nobody will listen to scaremongering, people will just continue doing their thing anyway.
> Lethality of all of those other methods is significantly below that of a semi-automatic rifle.

That's just not true. In Somalia, U.S. Army soldiers actually complained about how the AR-15 round (5.56 NATO) wouldn't take down enemy combatants in a single shot.

Compare that to, say, the bombs used in the Boston Marathon. It's a night and day difference. If you're trapped in a crowded nightclub that's on fire, your odds of survival are abysmal.

People survive serious gunshots every day with proper medical attention. One of the big issues in the Orlando shooting was the 3 hour wait before any of the victims got medical attention.
No, no, no, no! This will just make it easier for Big Ag (Monsanto, ConAgra, ADM, et al.) to dominate the market. The plant itself will be "improved" with foreign DNA so it can be mass-cultivated using chemical enhancements. Next will be the intentional squeezing out of strains that are non-GMO. Then margins will decrease for producers and varieties will be strictly limited. Then comes all the people who care doing little crowd-funded projects to preserve genetic variety.

Don't think it could happen? Do a little research on corn or cotton or sunflowers or soybeans.

Whether you ingest the stuff or not (I don't), this kind of thing only helps pave the way for truly nefarious corporate actors.

You are correct. Nobody is getting gunned down by full auto here in the US. Now, some terrorist yahoo may yet change that before I'm done typing this reply, but as of now the number of people who've been killed by civilian full auto fire since the NFA ban is in the low single digits last I checked.

> you would not survive if 1 solar mass of energy were released in any other form (even neutrinos)

But it is close!

A supernova releases "few times 10^45 J of neutrino energy" [1], so let's say 5. 5e45 J is about 6e28 kg, while solar mass is 2e30 kg. And neutron radiation from a supernova would get fatal when closer than about 2.3 AU [2]. So we have a factor of 30 from the masses and a factor of 5 (1^2 AU vs. 2.3^2 AU) from the distance.

So about 1/150 of solar mass released in neutron radiation would be survivable at the distance of 1 AU.

You're looking at the wrong statistic - the number of guns Americans own has increased significantly, but today only about 32% of American households have guns present compared to close to 50% in the late 1970s[0].

Violent crime in the US among the sub-population with a culture comparable to The Netherlands supposedly occurs at the same (very low) rate as The Netherlands, despite massively more guns per capita in the US for that same sub-population.

It's almost as if the availability of guns doesn't cause violent crime, people do.
No, I'll stand by my point. If you're indispensable, you're partly responsible for an organizational failure. If management recognize the problem and have time and space to address it, they may work with you to fix it. But in a time of crisis, when headcount needs adjusting, smart management will see you as a liability and act accordingly. Bureaucracies have a lot of momentum and are more resilient to the loss of an individual than they may appear. Obviously this is big-company thinking, and it applies in proportion to how bureaucratic your organization is.
Thats easy to say if your business model fails (generally).

I think it depends on the product. Newall was 100% correct about video games, which is where steam makes most of its money.

The issue with TV shows is somewhat different because of their episodic nature and the fact that alot of what they have to offer is available for free over the air, or already paid for by the cable customer, or the Netflix customer. It's harder to justify buying something that you really only want to watch once, will likely be available at some point in the future for free, or where the producer just doesn't care enough about your part of the world to even bother releasing it in a reasonable timeframe.

I'm not saying price isn't a factor, or the desire to get tons of "free" stuff isn't a factor, but distribution is still a PITA for TV worldwide, and TV/Movie companies also have the same level of "greed" in terms of wanting to herd consumers towards DVD/Blueray that Record companies have with regards to CD sales and wanting to return to the huge paydays of the 90s.

I'll agree that perhaps systemd doesn't cover all use cases or wants. But calling it a shoddy copy of SMF with a windows twist is disingenuous.

It handles services wonderfully, it handles logs wonderfully, perhaps it's a bit bloated whatever you can always revert to what you want if you decide to spend the time to actually do it.
