I think the books would take you to a basic knowledge of JS rather than expert level. This is the problem - the amount you need to know to be an effevtive programmer is growing out of control, as we attempt to make more ambitious applications than 10 years ago, for a decreasing (in real terms, unless you are in SV) salary. That means more weekends studying (working for free) to keep your place in this industry.
> some of them (but not all) buy the second dibs (what the supermarkets and their other obligations don't buy) as well as more irregular fruit and produce.

On top of that, the wholesalers know that these buyers will never pay a premium price, so they may get better deals on 1st tier items than mainstream supermarkets when the wholesaler really wants to sell.
Thanks. Just watched. What a great presentation.

I really like the hack of a block pointers being a data structure and containing the birth time (tx id I guess) and how that avoids needing managing bitmaps.

The advantage of doing send/receive vs rsync was also a nice explanation.

It is not often that you see a technology and think "Oh, this is great stuff", this is like that with ZFS. Haven't played much with it. But get that idea just from learning about it so far.

Both Jeff and Bill are great at communicating and explaining the technology. Like how they tag team, with minor funny bits here and there.

Regarding the main issue here, checksums -- yeah I don't see how Apple engineers could have watched this and said "Meh, don't need data checksums". Maybe they do have a secret vault with magic new holographic storage, immune to cosmic rays and other vagaries of physics, who knows.

I'm hoping it's his dry sense of humor. He's also pointing out how the replicants have a problem with red-eye: "it's unfortunate that the producers couldn't find a way to work around such a simple photographic bugbear." In fact the filmmakers took great pains to add this golden glow to the replicants. It's no accident at all. In the Final Cut DVD, they talk about how they did it. I'm sure that Dave Addey watched this bonus feature, as analytical as he is. He mentions Harrison Ford's eyes catch this glow at one point, saying, "How strange! I'm sure it won't turn out to be significant." This must be more dry humor, because there's also the fan theory that Deckard is a replicant after all.

Using an ORM is for advanced users, and I think it's a bad default for beginners. A good one certainly saves time when you know how to use it, but it also adds complexity and narrows the perception of what a database can do.

Narrowing the perspective is especially bad for beginners, because some options will simply never occur to them and the ORM will prevent learning by osmosis.

Let's say you need reliable, efficient cache invalidation (say, to re-render a static page when the data changes). Triggers and LISTEN/NOTIFY in postgres might save a huge amount of time (and even more in maintenance costs) over a custom solution that probably isn't right anyway.

Or maybe you need to prevent schedule conflicts. Postgres offers range types and exclusion constraints, which aren't supported in all ORMs.

Or to keep a remote system reliably in sync (even if it's a very different kind of system), logical decoding is a very powerful feature.

But how would you encounter any of these potential solutions if you are always behind an ORM?

6 Tricks to Win Every Hackathon
Look, this is just wrong. All the best-performing research databases use stored procedures because they perform much better than other approaches. Your bottleneck when it comes to validating your data is, generally speaking, your database, so you're not going to scale better by moving the logic farther away from it (and introducing a bunch of round-trip latency) and this is empirically confirmed in benchmarks of stuff like TPC-C. It's a really tired argument, especially when virtually every aspect of stored procedures but their performance is irritating.

As a software engineer, I started a food marketplace startup in Brazil (http://liderfood.com.br/en) and the black market was much larger than we could ever imagine.

It's not just stolen food. There are entire industries for:

1) Acquiring and "reprocessing" expired food.

2) Smuggled food from overseas. Mainly for avoiding taxes.

3) Buying uncertified or unregulated goods (e.g. directly from farmers or uncertified factory)

It ends up being a painstaking process to make sure all our partners comply with regulations and quality standards.
How do you know USG people aren't infiltrators from Tor/etc?
When it comes to data validation, none of what you just said applies, because you need to perform your work inside a transaction. You can validate the data outside your database and then confirm that nothing's changed (optimistic concurrency control) but you can do that just as easily inside the database, with lower latency and greater throughput (and in situations with lots of contention this can lead to many more aborts than other concurrency control mechanisms, so be careful!) because many databases have OCC built in. If you can afford to relax consistency due to aspects of your data model, you can use a database with a relaxed consistency model and--again--get far better performance than an ad-hoc solution in your application.

It's hugely unclear to me why you think you skirting transactional requirements by performing work in your application is less complex than using a NoSQL database (or using a database that utilizes MVCC or can otherwise provide long-lived read snapshots).

Frankly, I also disagree that for most websites the bottleneck is the database. For many websites, database latency / throughput constraints don't ever become the dominant factor in end-to-end requests because of all the layers they have to get through in order to get to the database in the first place, combined with a relatively low number of requests per second (commodity relational databases on commodity hardware can easily handle many thousands per second, and IIRC Google Search only had to handle 40k rps from real clients in a recent press release) and inefficient code elsewhere in the stack.

The stupid part about this is that this ruling will only affect stuff hosted on German servers, so only dewiki will be affected. Even then, someone will likely go in and sneak a few pictures that are "good enough" for Wikipedia purposes. All they've accomplished here is further restricting the public domain in Germany while not stopping Wikipedia from using their images. (We call that "cutting off the nose to spite the face") Now Germans will need intimate physical access to a work in the public domain to be able to get their own copyright to share it. Very disappointing for a museum, especially one which takes pride in receiving public funds. (Though of course the court shares more blame for making such a decision)

Appreciated your review!

At one time the farmers markets in PDX were superb, great produce at modest prices. Over the years they've become "fancy", kind of resembling Saturday Market, and prices are high. There are bargains to be found, though it takes some effort.

Asian markets, like out on 82nd, offer some interesting (and to us non-Asians, rather exotic) options. Unlike the Chinese vendors described in the article, produce is generally in good shape and prices reasonable. Also they're good places to buy cooking hardware, like an authentic cast-iron wok, for way less than what they charge at upscale kitchen stores.

No argument about Zupans for fresh fish, better than other grocers in PDX. They usually have good produce, but it is expensive and often available elsewhere for less.

Whole foods is OK, but I don't find it's particularly superior. New Seasons can be good, if selections somewhat quirky.

Freddy's is probably best for staples, partly because they're a Kroger's subsidiary which is a huge national chain. Hardly ever go to Safeway as nothing special there and further away.

I'd add that local, seasonal produce isn't hard to find in PDX, many grocers do feature regionally sourced fruits and vegetables, along with the "factory made" stuff. There's always the option of "U-Pick" on Sauvie's Island, an adventure in itself.
Do you have any good source to point people at when they say btrfs is unstable and corrupts data? (and I mean, either positive or negative data, I don't want to be biased either way) I'm kind of tired of people posting comments like that, which are based on "google is full of people saying this", or "I know one person who lost data" (but no idea which kernel was it - could well be from 2014).

If I look at btrfs patches on lkml, on one hand side I can see some fixes for data loss, but on the other they're usually close to "if you change the superblock while log is zeroed and new superblock is already committed and there's a power loss exactly at the point, you'll get corruption" - which are just really obscure edge cases people are unlikely to ever hit.

So what can I look at to get a realistic picture of what's going on? (what would SUSE point me at)

(for the negative results, I know of the recent filesystem fuzzing presentation where btrfs comes out worst, but honestly I don't consider it interesting for real world usage - car analogy, I'm interested how the car behaves on a typical road, not which fizzy drinks added to the gas tank will break it)

> There are no consitutional blocks to rejoining

Getting 27 nations to agree to let you back into the club when you've already told them to fuck off? That's not a trivial task. Having the UK disintegrate into its constituent countries and then trying to reform it if you don't like the outcome? That's not a trivial task. The Leave vote is a significant change to the status quo, and was won by a pretty slim majority in real terms.

Similarly, when one leader of Leave is not happy about the win, and another leader admits a primary promise of the campaign was a lie less than half a day after the victory, doesn't that strike you as an unstable result that should be double-checked?

Checking the Leave argument in a few years can be done again and again. Checking the Remain argument can only be done once - then the UK is gone, the EU has to act harshly, and England is left having burnt all it's goodwill and political capital... and the one world-class industry England does have flees the country due to the instability (I am told that the finance industry provides 34% of the UK's GDP - that's not an applecart that you want to particularly upset, even if you hate those arses in the City)

But modern physicists now say, I have done this experiment n times and can claim with 6 sigmas of certainty this is how the universe works. We are able to quantify noise in our signals, and sure, the end result is that nothing is 100% certain, but we still tease out causalities from the patterns in our noisy world. Uncertainty in measurement doesn't prevent us from observing causality.

Vulnerable to traffic analysis, I'm sure certain organizations wouldn't mind seeing that vulnerability include cleartext.

> ...plus implementing it in the safest way possible.

I've never seen an Underhanded Ada Contest, but I'm pretty confident that a bad actor could still introduce vulnerabilities that would pass a reasonable code review and be deniable. It would be an improvement for sure, but you'd still have a trust requirement. I think a good half measure would be: fully spec'd pure functions don't need human code review - just feed patches to the theorem prover and regression tester, all the trusted human labor can then focus on things that touch global state. At the risk of incentivizing spaghetti code, you'd incentivize the production of code that really lends itself to static analysis.

> ...memory- or interface-level attacks that make up 80-90% of vulnerabilities.

I look forward to us getting past the memory vulnerabilities, but the next battle will be one hell of a fight - timing attacks. Thought getting people to trade C performance was tough? Try getting them to intentionally delay all comparison operations... in the entire software stack :)

Well I did it a month ago, on a reasonably-updated system, at least.

The main point is that upgrading "in-place" does not require any of the metadata to be in the same place between old and new filesystem. With a mildly flexible destination filesystem, the old filesystem can stay there until you're completely sure the conversion is a success. You end up with two read-only filesystems sharing a partition, and you choose which one to go forward with. Cancelling at any point is trivial, even if the conversion process crashes.
While obviously better than just the FPGA, it is still very inefficient compared to a real ASIC. Altera and Xilinx both stopped offering their programs in this area due to the fact that it as it is not really cost effective to have the same transistor level mask set and then have to buy all new masks on top once you get to sub 28nm processes.

As for primetime, we use Synopsys Synplify Pro for FPGA synthesis, and while it does a better job than Altera/Xilinx's tools, it does no where near as well (and works very differently) compared ot physical aware synthesis from Design Compiler or RC/Genus.

I too wish more people in the PHP world would use parameters, but alas, your second paragraph sums up the common mentality. If its still going to make money, why go to the effort? Personally I love sending a query with an object and just let the engine do the work.

I've tried to convince him of the benefits of parameter based queries, but believes that it would be a performance hit (performance for him maybe, he'd have to struggle to learn something new).

You think executives of a private-sector corporation can't vote to give themselves high salaries or huge bonuses? Most of the time they don't even have to -- it's so ingrained in the culture now that it's just considered a cost of doing business to be robbed blind by the executive team.

And if you think a private corporation can't deploy violence, you probably have never in your life read anything about why we had a rise of labor unions in this country; companies used to be able to call on not only the government's army but also their own private armies to put down, via deadly force, anyone perceived as a threat to the company's profits.

> Attestation would be performed with intel's key (so you know it's not an emulator) but also indicate which keypair could be used to break the enclave (so you know who has access to the backdoor).
> By default that could be an invalid (unusuable) key. If you want to debug enclaves, e.g. because you suspect they run malware, you would add your own.

This wouldn't solve the malware problem. The problematic kind of malware will use attestation, because otherwise you would simply emulate it from start to finish. If the malware author is paying any attention, then their malware will simply refuse to run (C&C won't provision it with a payload) if a backdoor key is installed, just as it would refuse to run if emulated.

You would gain the ability to use SGX for your own internal purposes with a form of escrow, but I think you could achieve this even on existing SGX by writing an enclave that emulates other enclaves and tweaking the key derivation process a bit. Admittedly it would be awkward.

That isn't true. You need to use ntfs-3g, which is a free software implementation of NTFS (that allows both reading and writing). It's been stable for 10 years. Using NTFS doesn't require anything from windows and doesn't require proprietary software.

One of the problems with learning a web framework is that there are a lot of them, and the effort it takes to find out which one best serves your needs can seem to be on par with rolling your own, without the assurance that you'll actually get your needs met. And I suppose the ORM issue faces the same decision-making problem.

Hand-rolled crap is at least crap that was rolled to suit the problem you're facing, and you'll do it using tools you understand. You're not learning "any" framework, you're learning a bit of them all and hoping that's enough to point you in the right direction. Sometimes it's not, and then you're stuck with a hammer for screws and someone else's code that you don't understand.
Makes no sense considering there is very little effort which is needed, and no creativity whatsoever. So why even allow for copyright on something so trivial.
