I have just read about it and the WMF (WMI Management Foundation) docs, whitepapers, and framework. I have not played much.

GPO, and GPP (the preferences), are a nightmare.

- The gpresult utility and rsop.msc tell you changes, but that does not mean much, because

- GPO is async and requires sometimes a shutdown, not just a reboot (fom 5+ years of experience), so good luck dropping this crap on a dime; God help you

- The Registry.pol files are not easily auditable or usable outside gpresult and rsop.msc

- If you hit slow links, processing will be disabled; this is not slow all the time, but when 2% of the computers booting at 6:54AM on Tuesday it does not get applied

- A whole bunch of other stuff I forget in this rant

But I totally agree with you, such a pain. I have not had a lot of time for Salt, Puppet, and Chef. Whether it is in parallel or thanks to DSC (I saw some Powershell in one repo ... Ansible?) those tools are also a reality.

I use an expensive SCCM alternative, but I am seriously considering proposing moving to one of the Chef/Puppet/Anisble/Salt stacks with SSH becoming a reality on Windows.

All I can say is thank God.
Submitting and completing a 4k I/O using SPDK is about 7 times more CPU efficient than the equivalent operation with libaio, which is opening a raw block device with O_DIRECT.

Said another way, on a recent Xeon CPU you can expect to drive somewhere around 3 million 4k I/O per second with SPDK per core. With libaio, you can do about 450,000 per core off the top of my head.

SPDK has no locks or cross core communication required, so it scales linearly with additional CPU cores. Blk-mq in the kernel also helped the kernel scaling problem significantly, but I'm not sure if it is perfectly linear yet.

Most applications need something like a filesystem to function - there is no denying that. Using SPDK requires applications to implement at least the minimal set of features in the filesystem that their application needs. Many databases and storage services already bypass the filesystem or use the filesystem as a block allocator only, so it is not a big leap from there to SPDK.
This is an excellent example of fud created by security pundits wanting to say "actually, that's not secure". If you read that link carefully you will find that the problems discussed are not unique to digital redaction (size/length of the redaction, height of the redaction, etc). The accepted answer also clearly stated that if you use pixel-replacement (this is what DoD calls it) you're fine. Further, there have been plenty of times I've seen a redaction-by-marker break down when the underlying ink bleeds through in photocopy.

NSA published guidelines in 2005 for how to safely redact PDF (as well as word) documents. The corresponding physical redaction guidance begins by suggesting that the inspector physically remove the information to be redacted with an xacto knife. They redact and release thousands of documents, if nobody has reversed their redaction process yet then it's good enough.

I am new grad in CS and want to start a career abroad. I have been freelancing since 2010 mostly working on web apps. I made a Twitter tool when I was 17 and it's a hit with 200k+ users to this day (http://www.tweriod.com). I did an internship at a Berlin startup last summer. I'm good with JavaScript, both in front-end and back-end. Willing to learn new tech and move further down the stack.

I am open for new grad/junior/internship positions, in that order.
I remember when I lived in Phoenix, 80° was a popular setting. Man, did that ever feel great coming in from 110°! Now that I live in Oregon where 82° outside feels too hot, I'll set my indoor thermostat to 74°.
Has it? I had not heard of Monero.

You got stuff I can read? I am curious about the I2P culture, if you are in the know.
I think on top of immigration polices, there is also a natural selective process imposed on Asian immigration just through sheer logistics. For example, through having the financial means to go to a different country. The average income in China is about 7 000 USD - which means that the average Chinese individual would have to save up roughly half their yearly income to come to the states.

Then on top of that, a person with money needs to have the entrepreneurial and pioneer spirit to leave their home country and go somewhere totally new. That isn't normal. Perhaps that isn't so much the case today, but in the mid 80s around the time my parents came here no one in their family were here and it was very rare to see someone from our racial background. Something about just leaving your home and taking a huge gamble in flying across the ocean in search of a better life, that seems to show the ability to dream of a better life and sacrifice in search of it, which is by no means common.

My dad told me that in leaving Sri Lanka, he took the student visa route which involved writing some exam (probably the GRE but I never got the specifics). Anyways, did terribly on the exam a few times and then kept paying to take it over. He also spent hundreds on application fees to foreign universities. He told me that during this time, a bunch of people from his village in Sri Lanka would be sitting around laughing at him for all his failures and wasted effort. I think what the shows is that the desire to emigrate was no only difficult but at the time was by no means normal. It wasn't everyone who was putting in the gargantuan effort to escape Sri Lanka (of course this was before the civil war got really bad so the situation likely changed as the 80s wore on.)

I think these factors also contribute to economic sucess.

The pragmatics are all against rewriting the network stack, as you have thoroughly explained. Though I have a feeling of unease. The network stack implementations are lacking diversity. They improve slower than they could otherwise do. They have plenty of undocumented obscure corner cases. Developing an implementation of a [de-facto] standard requires a solid open test suite. The Web platform has one, https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests. Is there an equivalent suite for TCP/IP?

Because one person is a good sample size. Also, Italy has a lot of bigger and fancier clothing brands, so your example doesn't really prove much.
I agree with you on this. "30% of my current salary" is much clearer for me than "70% less". I always see a floating "0.3x" when reading this stuff, and it happens way faster if it is just given in that form.
Makes sense, I was describing my experience as employee and just trying to explain why comparing gross salaries doesn't make much sense.
If companies all of the sudden didn't have to paid those 20% would I see that reflected on my paycheck? I bet you I wouldn't nor anyone else.

I've heard that falacy time and time again: "Oh, if I didn't have to pay so much taxes for each worker I could pay higher salaries."

>I don't understand why this is still a thing. How have we, as a group, not gotten such a horrible law overturned.

It's not that loads of people think 60 hours/week is ok. It's that lots of people seem to think there's something immoral and mafia-esque about collective bargaining and organized labor. Labor rights don't get improved because people walk away from bad jobs (there will always be someone sufficiently desperate as to undercut everyone else, even if the employers have to change a bunch of laws to make it happen), and they don't get improved because the government sees just how lovely and moral it would be to improve labor rights.

They get improved because workers unite and fight for our collective interests. To my mind, people who don't admit this have a strangely romanticized conception of how business works.

This result is interesting not because tetraquark states were not previously expected to exist, but because it allows us to verify whether theoretical predictions about them coincide with the experimental results. I don't think there was an expectation of hadrons being limited to two and three quarks only.

Why would I want to take my perfectly nice VMs and run them on a windows server?
That sounds fine, if it means that "routing around" regulation involves actually creating the amount of redundancy necessary to survive a crash or downturn. No, not everything should be leveraged to the damn hilt. Prices are supposed to be signals about expected utilities, right? Well, those expectations can be wrong, and the system should be made to factor in the known fact that those expectations are wrong with certain known frequencies.

Great tech companies not only have great engineering culture
We've seen similar savings at our company. We have deployed Kube on a 6-node cluster of CoreOS nodes with 512GB each. These are dedicated servers hosted at Rackspace. We're about 30-40% utilized on RAM and maybe 15-20% on CPU. To host a similar set of services on our older Openstack environment would require at least 2-3x the number of servers. The cost savings isn't even the best part. Kubernetes has allowed us to build a completely self-service pipeline for our devs and has taken the ops team out of day-to-day app management. The nodes update themselves with the latest OS and Kube shifts the workload around as they do. This infrastructure is faster, more nimble, more cost-effective and so much easier to run.

This is the best infrastructure I've ever used in twenty years of doing ops and leading ops teams.
First I'd like to thank you for your work. I've learned a lot from you and your teachings.

When it comes to "foo bar" examples, as a learner, I think it causes MORE cognitive load not less.

I think this is because, it's hard to make connections between meaningless words like foo, bar and baz

Conversely, most of the "aha" moments come from your ELI5-like explanations of concepts

The concept of a "promise" made sense to me when you used buying a hamburger at a fast food store in your workshop on asynchronous javascript.

>Wouldn't it be more important to fight absolute poverty than inequality?

Well that too, but the tension comes directly from the inequality. e.g. Being hungry sucks, but it sucks more if you see fellow citizens live like kings.
love this site for getting back into the groove before technical phone screens, can anyone recommend another site with similar problems?
My take based on aging parents:

+ Physical accommodations are practical and available via the accessibility features of most modern desktop and mobile operating systems.

+ Cognitively, there's not much that can be done because the impediments are largely recent conventions [e.g. the hamburger menu] and a lifetime of habits [e.g. using the telephone to contact customer support].

+ Culturally, healthcare, legal services, banking, etc. are not converging on a single set of standards. This means systems are unfamiliar and older people recognize their high probability for mistakes using them. So they stick to what the know is likely to reduce risk. E.g. paying bills by physical checks in envelopes.

All of that is ok as far as I'm concerned.

Good luck.
IBM enforced a dress code as part of the company image of quality. Quality wasn't just a word, it was a culture. IBM's management had to go to "manager's school" and were sought after because everyone knew IBM invested time and money to train their managers and their employees. IBM's reputation for quality was so good people USED to say "Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM".

IBM "enforced" a lot of things beyond dress code. I got called on the carpet for answering a question at a conference because I was not an IBM official spokesperson. Everything (including dress) about the company mattered.

If you want a company image then dress code matters. FedEx people who drive trucks still wear uniforms. Airline pilots wear uniforms. Losing the company image loses a reason to work for the company. IBM today is run by people who forgot that. It seems to me that IBM will go out of business shortly based on that loss of "cachet".

IBM repair people wearing suits sent the message that IBM CARED about business, about perception, about quality. It showed they pay attention to their front-line workforce. It transmits the idea that this person is well-trained, not picked out of a lineup. IBM invested in that training (something most companies don't do anymore).

IBM people never complained that they felt like robots. They were universally proud to work for the company. IBM didn't fire, they retrained. (Not anymore, though. And you can see it on the IBM postings.) IBM people cared about quality. If something was wrong they worked to make it right and they were backed by management, even if it really wasn't IBM's fault. Robots, no. Workers who were proud of and cared for the company, yes.

Few companies seem to train employees, seem to care about quality, seem to care about a dress code as a corporate image. Starbucks seems to be "the new IBM" on those terms. They only recently allowed "visible tattoos".

I have "skills". The only thing that will make me want to move is a more "interesting" problem. If you show up with an interesting problem I'll wear Saran Wrap or anything else you want to work, dress code be damned.
> If you're interested in limiting your market, there's a whole embedded and high performance space where this is critical.

Well, it's a preference, not a hard requirement. I'll hold my nose and work on such a codebase if there are other reasons, like the project itself being very interesting.

> Considering LLVM takes the same stance

IMHO, that's a mistake. But LLVM is an example of a project that's compelling enough to work on despite what I consider a set of poor language choices.
With only a handful of exceptions (ie the Los Angeles Dodgers show about 10 games a year on an OTA station), every team has exclusive deals with cable tv stations for local broadcasts. Even Fox has taken to putting many of their weekend national broadcasts on FS1, a cable channel. ESPN also has a Sunday night game on cable only.

So the short answer is: no.

Red Herring.

Fixing the funding model is an independent problem.

I'm not saying that advertising and software development aren't prresently linked through funding. But the process is _fundamentally_ unbundled, through the vehicle of Free Software development and licensing.

The costs for advertising are approximately $500 per year per capita in the developed world (~1 billion persons), plus all the associated privacy, surveillance, security, and chilling-effects risks.

A shift of that basis from advertising to a syndicated content-and-development support tax would cut the cord between both advertising and content, and advertising and software development. Treating both writing of content (fiction, nonfiction, journalism, research) and software development as public goods could achieve some very strong social benefits (or at least present a different set of problems for us to jaw over on HN, though the concept of a technology startup incubator might also see some ground shifts).

Bust out of that box a bit, Nick.

Do you know why? Is this a surface area vs volume case, except in reverse e.g. the environment is pumping heat into small creatures faster than big creatures?
One reason to write a user space stack or, at least, a custom kernel module is to avoid the plethora of copying that can occur. Routing VXLAN interfaces to some kind of layer 2 encryption bridge? The kernel is going to copy that shit like 3 times before it hits user space. Writing your own stack can often save you all that copying around between bridges and interfaces.

Edit:

I'm going to plug my own zero-copy lib for Linux in golang. It has general purpose tcp/ip suppport (though no logic for handling tcp communication itself). It's lock-free and thread safe: https://github.com/nathanjsweet/zsocket

Thanks. However, J was conceived in 1980-s, uses ASCII for ease of communications, not as the best set of symbols. In this sense APL was somewhat less constrained - symbols were new, even though some of them were typed on teletypes with some tricks.

Looks like in case of J a lot of consideration was given to what's relatively easy to do in terms of chosen set of symbols. The question is, if ASCII wouldn't be a requirement, what would be a modern set of primitives, efficient as the tool for thought. APL at the time was trying to extend - and improve - mathematical notation, no less...
I agree with this, foo/bar/baz stuff is abstract and means nothing. This means the learner need stop associate something they don't know with nothing which is really hard. An analogy of something the learner knows is way easier to grasp..
