I am not sure in the apps where Go/Java languages are mostly targeted how many times people are implementing binary trees as their core/dominating business logic.
Almost everyone here suggest Object Storage which I too think is the best option for your case. Then you can modulate computing power or even technology (VPS, cloud instance, PaaS, or containers) as you will.

Some providers like us (I am CEO at Exoscale) bill the compute by the minute and allow to resize the direct attached disk even on small 5$/mo 512mb instances.

Are alpha-beta (or alpha) filters a subset of Kalman Filters?

I ask because I don't know enough about the Kalman Filter. But it seems that the parent post could also be accurate.

I imagine many implementations of the Kalman Filter take advantage of the local use case, and don't necessarily have to carry a fully generalised Kalman filter.
Right and wrong are not objective units of measure, please don't be insulting by trying to state "facts" regarding something being "right" or "wrong".

As far as "leaving them to suffer" goes, there are plenty of ways for people to get help with just about every health condition and disorder that's lifestyle related. They simply require that the individual actually take responsibility for their own existence and reach out.

Who makes the decision that someone is "not capable" of caring for themselves, and at what level? Do you force them into a special program? Do you take away all of their other individual rights at the same time? Who decides what aspects of personal responsibility apply to which people? That's a very slippery, dangerous slope to tread. Smarter people than you, or I, haven't been able to come up with "the right" answer.

I'll err on the side of personal agency, thanks.

Q2 VC Preview and Apple’s Long Shadow
That's because it's treating it as a 16-bit DOS executable (since it has the 'MZ' magic number but not the rest of the PE header that tells Windows that it's 32 or 64-bit). 64-bit Windows can't run 16-bit executables at all.

32-bit Windows should fail a little later in the execution process; it can run 16-bit software, but your text file is missing the rest of the MZ-format header.
At this point, emoji support is almost ubiquitous (at least in the US). I'd imagine that within the next couple of years emoji support will be within a rounding error of 100%.
I'm not sure that's "unpleasant design" so much as outright bad design. Aluminum is cheap and easy to extrude into rectangular tubes suitable for use as bench slats. Unfortunately aluminum is a pretty terrible material for this use. It's freezing cold in the winter, as you noted. It can also be hot enough to burn in the summer sun. And it's hard. And it's ugly (when used this way). I don't think any of this is intended to deter people from sleeping on it. It's just a cheap way to install a bench.
I think what he's saying is that you can't get directly to SSH, but have to go through the TLS web control panel.

This seems to make an assumption that the security is equal to these two (web I/F w/ TLS plus SSH) combined in a chain, when in fact I think it now introduces a possibly weaker link.

And now I'm the one making an assumption that: if you can break into KeyBox, then you have full control over the OpenSSH connection too. Ultimately it comes down to which you trust more: KeyBox or OpenSSH.

(Note that this is also partly true of things that just create user accounts and sudo roles like Userify, but Userify provides a much lower degree of direct control over the remote server as opposed to a channel straight into that server. Even if you broke Userify, you'd still need to gain access to SSH, which might not even be possible from your network, and certainly all of that would show up in your logs anyway, since it's pure SSH turtles all the way down...)

Agree, assuming that this data is being secretly stored by major tech companies against stated privacy policies is abit tinfoil-hatty. The coverup that would be needed makes it highly unlikely.

You can fabricate data nearly as easily as you can fabricate results. It is easier to detect fabricated results from raw data than it is from the final results, but fraud adapts to the methods used to detect it. If you create a new way to detect fraud, fraud will change to avoid that method. Detecting fraud is an arms race.

How to Make Business Communications More Effective
Consider it this way. The Camden Bench has a clear dictum - thou shalt only sit. It's pretty clear that this object has been placed by a rigid authority with strong opinions on the right and wrong way to use their bench.

A "standard" bench is more neutral - here is a bench. Do with it what you like. The user is invited to exercise their own preferences in how to use it. It acknowledges that the user may have their own valid ideas about how to use it. Consequently, the user feels more respected.

It's like using a locked-down phone vs one where the user is free to install their own firmware. The former may be adequate for many and more straightforward to use, but it may not serve all users and many would bristle just at the suggestion that they are being limited in what they can do.
Yeah, that is state of the art. No chance there...
To be clear, it still specifies "Edge" in it's UA string and can be specifically detected. And just about every browser now mentions Mozilla, Chrome, and Webkit in their UAs.
Look up the Azul Systems pgc. That is more or less the holy grail, but it is patented out the wazoo, and is a commercial implementation only.

Also, the jrockit jvm (which was from BEA and was purchased by Oracle) is actually quite a bit faster than hotspot and easier to introspect (lookup jrockit mission control) than hotspot. I suspect eventually they'll merge however.
wouldn't that just mean that Watson sucks at text to speech?
also since that's probably the case for most tts services (at least in my experience)

why not run the audio through all the tts engines you can find and compare results. keep what has the highest matches and see if you can get the other words using phonetics engines.

for words that are specific to your company train a tts engine on those words and weight your local engine higher than other services.

you can get a pretty decent translation back, but who would be so lazy as to work that hard..... ;)
In the Erlang world, we call that Virding's rule:

"Any sufficiently complicated concurrent program in another language contains an ad hoc informally-specified bug-ridden slow implementation of half of Erlang."

Edit: I'll add, though, that the Go people are pretty smart and seem like they're doing good things, so I wouldn't be too complacent in thinking Erlang is the only game in town. It still does get some things right that are hard to replicate in Go, though.

How I Built and Sold My Business for $16,100
http://prairiehome.org/shows/ has the archive, and it is kind of sucky to use their player when out on a road trip here on the prairie. I'm not on the same edge of the prairie as St. Paul, but the cellular network isn't exactly top notch on the roads I travel here in SE Indiana. So, I yank down the episodes that I miss the live broadcasts.

The APM player is open source.

https://github.com/APMG/APMPlayer

But no need to deep dive the source.

When you open a player page's source, you see a line like this:

var playables = [{"identifier":"apm_audio:\/phc\/2016\/07\/02\/phc_20160702_128.mp3"}];

Looks like the end of a URL, but what is the beginning? It isn't prairiehome.publicradio.org where the page is served from.

Opening the apmplayer-all.min.js, there is:

function(){var d={"apm-audio":{flash_server_url:"rtmp://ondemand-rtmp.stream.publicradio.org/music",flash_file_prefix:"mp3:ondemand",http_file_prefix:"http://ondemand-http.stream.publicradio.org",buffer_time:3,t...},"apm-live-audio"

You get the beginning of the URL for the file. Put two and two together, you get:

http://ondemand-http.stream.publicradio.org/phc/2016/07/02/p...

Now that we have the format and know that PHC is a weekly show, you could directly grab or make a bulk download script.

http://ondemand-http.stream.publicradio.org/phc/YYYY/MM/DD/p...

Note: the archive only has Sept 2012 onward - http://prairiehome.org/shows/2012/09/ Before that, episodes are Realplayer RAM files on the old archive page.

>That's why you don't do it often.

You need to do it when you become too fragmented (or suffer the same potentially poor allocation performance as Go), how often that happens largely depends on what the application is doing.

>including Go's, is lack of bump allocation in the nursery.

Yes, but as I recall this is in the future roadmap for consideration/attempt.

And again, as with everything it's not a silver bullet, as you sacrifice the high cost of promotion (again expensive moving of memory) in order to have very fast allocations while the nursery isn't fragmented or full.

>Go pays a heavy cost in allocation performance relative to HotSpot.

But not the cost of compaction/promoting, which are also heavy when they need to be performed.

That said, I personally believe a bump allocator with generational copying will be a 'net win' if implemented in Go's GC, but all things considered I'd rather see some cold hard numbers confirming it.

Spreadsheets still suck at leaving my data alone. At least Excel has that ridiculous import facility where you can instruct it to leave certain columns alone.

Google Sheets are surprisingly the worst in this department. It's pretty much impossible to prevent Google Sheets to convert 5/7 to a date and 0123 to a number (losing the leading 0 of course and rendering the data invalid). No, ' is not the answer.
I don't like the idea of an attribute affecting things that applies what is essentially a CSS property. Besides, any IE version before 11 doesn't seem to support it. Most can't use it yet.

Best case is that you don't have one class that applies block (or whatever) and another that applies none. You let the element display as its default state and then you have a class that hides it, possibly overriding the CSS of the element. You then remove/add the class as needed. The .show() and .hide() in jQuery caused problems like you described for years.

As for your third example, I would say the CSS structure should be considerd broken at that point and should be refactored because something went wrong along the way.

> [W]e need modern, digitally-native documents that are as rich as the information they contain.

It's best to separate interactive parts from the non interactive. When I read papers I always print them because I can take notes, underline, draw shapes, comment etc. all in-line with a pen that I'll buy from a closest little shop if I don't have one with me. It is more convenient that any software tool out there, because there is basically no limitation to how I'll use the pen on the (actual) paper.

But how will I be able to print a video, or a graphic that has some controls to be fiddled with?

But they can be provided separately, and if I have the mediums, I'll use also them.

> How the homelessness of all the homeless people can be blamed on the societal shortcomings?

It is because society (i.e. the legal bodies, but also the culture and the people on average) in the Western world aim for higher standard to all their citizen.

It is a similar issue as with Human Rights in general. Small violation in a Western country has almost people in the street, but harsh human violation in other countries is hardly worth a mention in the news. That's not double standard or obsessive political correctness or western guilt, it is because Western society has declared Human Rights to be its founding principles, and people living in those countries expect the government to enforce it.

In short you live in a society where shelter is a fundamental right, so failing to provide shelter, regardless of the circumstance is a societal failing by definition. If you disagree, that is fine, you need to either find a society inline with you own social vision, or, more realistically, vote for the representative that share your vision of society and endure until it shifts. ( and it shifts, US society is way less forgiving than European society in general for example )
When was that? Just curious, because I did see some bad reviews before deciding to go with Delimiter, but also kept hearing that things have improved in recent years.
Online.net (specifically their Scaleway brand) I've been happy with as well. Their support has a quick turnaround, but answers have been unrelated to what I've been asking.
There's also an increased number of optimized code-paths, like for instance some crypto code in the TLS stacks. The natural way to optimize Go code, for instance to benefit from advanced CPU instructions in modern architectures, is to fallback to assembly.
What's wrong with PDFs? PDFs are great because it's a downloadable format and when I create one I know that what I see is what other people will see. The same can not be said for a website format where people use different browsers, different devices, and different versions of different software.

I just don't see what's wrong with using PDFs. If I want to read one of the papers on your website on my phone when I don't have Internet, how do I do it? If I just keep the page open on my phone's browser it's just going to go away at some point as my phone's OS clears the browser's cache to make room for other apps that I'm actively using. With PDFs I can just open the pdf I've downloaded.

Comcast wants to own and control the interface with the customer. It makes them the powerful gatekeepers so they can extract as much rent as possible. It's like cell phone carriers before the iPhone. You had to go "kiss the ring" and beg for a chance to release a crappy Java applet. The carrier set the price ($15) and took most of the money. They also gave you non-optional feedback on all aspects of your app.

None of the cable/satellite providers are innovating. There is far more money in charging $$ for a set-top box and choice is so limited there is no pressure to improve. Again, it's like ATT and the phone network. You could rent one kind of phone and you'll like it. Breaking their stranglehold on the phone network (another government mandate, despite the billions ATT spent building their network) enabled an explosion in choice and enabled regular people to get on the internet with modems. We literally wouldn't be posting on HN right now without the government forcing ATT to open their network.

The FCC is trying to create a free market where none exists. The cable companies have been fighting against CableCard and these digital standards for over a decade, and very successfully too.

Edit: You can down vote if you want, I used to work at a CLEC and the ILEC's IT department purposefully made things obtuse and pretended to be incompetent so they could throw up their hands and say "It's impossible!". As soon as we signed a separate commercial agreement (so SBC/ATT could claim the market was open and no regulation was necessary) suddenly their IT people were able to get projects done and roadblocks magically disappeared. Funny how that works.
