This is an "operating system" only in a marketing hype sense.

In technical reality, it seems to be a Google Apps alternative that you can self-host.

Still very cool (frankly even MORE cool than yet another hobby OS!)... but "platform" would be a less groan-worthy phrase than "operating system".
Sorry that was a typo. I meant HHVM and Hack http://hhvm.com/
So how would you go about packaging this m-cli tool into a sandboxed app?
Unlike Sandstorm though, Cloudron hosting is limited to managed by them or Amazon's cloud.

Being able to control your self hosted app environment is a big part of why you'd do it.
People have been waiting for these pages to be declassified for years. They may not own the current news cycle, but journalists and pundits have definitely taken notice and we'll be hearing more about this in the coming days I'm sure.
and the US supposedly keeps nukes on Turkish soil at the Incirlik air base, as part of its NATO role.

it seems incredibly unwise to me, given its a Muslim country bordering ISIS, Syria, Iraq. and its a Muslim country with a known history of coups. a messy/failed coup attempt could degrade into a civil war, or, continuing anarchy. in such a situation, I can picture scenarios where the US nukes at Incirlik fall into the hands of... people who may wish us harm. For example, ISIS or another terror group.

I think the US gov does lots of dangerously irresponsible things, this is just the latest example of one of them being brought into sharp focus.
16 Open Source Deep Learning Models Running as Microservices
A better solution would probably be to buy a well-shielded USB cable for the drive, then.
To be clear: The container shuts down, but the storage stays. Since the data set is small, apps start back up quickly on-demand. Moreover, the storage for app assets (code, binaries, images, etc.) is shared read-only among all instances, so the marginal storage usage of each grain is only the per-grain data, which is usually very small.
Operating system was always a vague term.

Yes it's not Windows but it's a system that host user applications, seems valid to me.
Yeah, I think that is correct. BTW, I just searched and agolia now and found https://urbit.org/
Fair enough. I agree on both points.

But my point was not that one system is 'better' or 'worse' but that religious head-wear should not be seen as some inalienable right that we have to accommodate to remain a free society. Even if many young Iranian women may feel 'naked' without it, it only took the religious dictators there one generation to make them forget how it used to be.
Sure, if you have well-aerated soil with an automated irrigation system, your plants will grow just as well. But, you won't get fish. Also, your irrigation system must be fine-tuned to deliver just enough water to the plants you are growing, so it doesn't drain to other plants that you did not have any intention of watering. This is where the aquaponics
advantage comes in: the water returns to the fish tank to be used again.

In any case, this is a moot point, because most gardeners do not have irrigation systems. And if you're just starting out, there is no guarantee you will have good soil. Our backyard has 1-2 inches of sod, then solid clay underneath. We had to do a lot of work (or pay a lot of money) to amend that soil to the point where it produced a good harvest.
just looked myself up through that link, and apparently, me too!
Euro-English by the European Commission
Thank you for the kind words. My main hurdle is educating the market on the concept.
Personally I use the TUI, but I completely get where your coming from - the TUI is really pretty lame for all that it does compared to all that it could do.

That said, the debugging I do is all from the command-line anyway, so all I really want is a way to quickly view the assembly and registers when I break, which the TUI does quite well.

As a note - I think the person in the audience was trying to get at the fact that gdb (like tons of cli programs) uses readline() for input. readline() can be configured to use emacs or vi keybindings, with emacs the default - hence why ctrl-p and ctrl-n work. I personally use vi keybindings, so in gdb I can use ESC, and then jk to go up and down the command history.
It's not that it's bad to wear religious clothing or have political opinions -- it's just that a school should be a place of learning, not propaganda.

As an American, I think of nothing when people wear hijab or whatever, and trust me, I am an atheist who think religion is irrational and that humanity would be better off without it.

Maybe the French would be better off thinking nothing of it when someone wears religious clothing, just as we are starting to think nothing of it when people are gay or transgender or whatever.
These terrorists tend to be well educated, with degrees in some cases, and have good understanding of the scriptures. Is not an education issue.

Nor it's a wealth issue. Attacks happen all over the world, rich or poor. These guys are not desperate because they lack money.

Nor they are, in most cases, insane (although we tend to think so).

It's an indoctrination issue. They've been told who the enemy was, since they were little. They were told liberal values are despicable, the end of "society". And they've been told any means necessary to end with these values is valid.

You need to end the indoctrination, right from where it starts: the neighborhood mosque.
I live in Cary -- would you be willing to show me your setup in person, and have a chat?
> Operating system was always a vague term.

Unless you're Richard Stallman, it really isn't.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system

Do you have a kernel, and manage hardware? Then you're an OS. Otherwise, you're a container, or app server, or some other type of "platform".

Tomcat and Jetty host user applications. They're not operating systems.
>> Microservices are seemingly designed to match the developer’s mental model of their system. Often, services are literally divided by the team who maintains them.

> Good Lord, I sure hope that's not true. Maybe if the non-technical manager designed the system.

Of course it is. It isn't even a terrible way to do it - making a team responsible for their own data end to end does decouple their development velocity from other teams.

It does have problems too of course!
> "I find wearing religious clothing in a public institution such as a school incredibly obnoxious and pushy -- it's akin to your professor suddenly starting to push his/her political views onto you in an unrelated lecture"

But prohibiting the wearing of religious clothing IS pushing political views.
That's a more thoughtful response, so well done.
What I never liked about gdb was that I could not really figure out a way for it to show me what has changed when stepping over an instruction or a call, a feature that I often find very useful in other debuggers (especially in x64dbg and edb if you do not have the source).

The debuggers I have encountered seem a bit limited when regarding the debugger as a means of querying a subset of program executions (out of all possible executions), but they are usually helpful in picturing system dynamics. It has always been very helpful for me to allocate a portion of fixed screen real estate to memory, variables and registers that I am watching and see the changes as I step through, allowing me to observe the dynamics of the system.

Too bad I could not figure out a way for gdb to help with that, the closest I got was examining the memory I was interested in ('x' variants) before and after, but no highlighting. To be fair, it is good at other things though :)...
This is not the LifeCycle event you are looking for
> I find your equivalence of those two men to Hitler to be naive or intentionally inflammatory.

>> Why did people support Hitler? Why do people support Trump? Why do people support Putin?

This structure doesn't imply that the men are equivalent. It implies that the three questions share one answer. If I tell you that the reason we fine people for speeding is the same reason that mothers in Jonestown fed poison to their babies, I hope you won't think I'm equating the acts.
They should tie in a plot line about how our consumption culture has obliterated our attention spans and made us dependent on constant stimuli.
Actually, I agree. We originally used the term "platform". But, we found that people understood more easily when we switched to "operating system" -- and it's not too far off the mark, honestly. Sandstorm is an OS in the sense that Android is an OS. Both use the Linux kernel, but largely control the userspace. (Sandstorm can run along-side your existing Linux distro without interfering with anything, but it doesn't really use any of your distro's infrastructure so this is somewhat of a technicality.)

The problem with "platform", which surprised me, is that a lot of people now think "platform" is somehow synonymous with "cloud service". For example, if you watch HBO's Silicon Valley, you may remember the whole "platform vs. box" debate from this season. It's a frustrating perversion of the word, but it is what it is.
That sounds really nice, thank you for taking the time to write all this. I do use Emacs for editing, and I miss all the features SLIME offered for Common Lisp. Unfortunately, I'm using Julia now, and while the language is really getting there, tooling support is minimal outside of Jupyter and Atom, so I wouldn't bet on Babel.

I should learn org-mode though. I've heard so much praise for it!
Absolutely! I'm about 15-25 minutes away (depending on where you're located in Cary). Email me (andrew@automicrofarm.com) and we can set up a time to meet.
Not at all. We don't have a seperate head of state.

The closest thing we have is the supreme power of the Supreme Court.
It's important to remember that those "security fears" were in reference to Bastille Day.
> These are extremely different places, but I'm pointing this out because while race matters, waaaay too much emphasis is placed on it compared to the structural factors that impact people independent of ethnicity.

I think that is one of the big impediments to actually solving many of the current problems that involve race.

For instance, take the issue of people getting shot by police. It is a fact that blacks are shot at a higher rate than whites in the United States. It is also a fact that blacks commit violent crimes at a higher rate than whites. Most people get hung up on one of those two facts and won't go farther.

The liberal side (I'm going to be doing some broad generalizations from here on...) gets hung up on blacks getting shot at a higher rate and attributes it to obvious racism on the part of police. They don't want to consider that the police may be shooting blacks at a higher rate for non-racist reasons.

The conservative side points to the higher crime rate among blacks, takes that as a satisfactory explanation for the police shooting data (and they are probably reasonably right, at least for the proximate cause of police shootings), and then gets hung up on that. They don't want to consider that there may be some factors that are disproportionately pushing blacks into conditions that tend to foster higher crime rates among people in those conditions regardless of race.

In particular, there is a pretty solid correlation between race and wealth in the US. Black people are disproportionately in poorer cites and states, where schools are worse, prospects are dimmer, and there is high population density. Those kind of areas tend to produce higher crime rates regardless of the race or ethnicity of the people that live in them.

(Well, to be accurate, that should be "higher crime rates for the kind of crimes that often gets you shot by police". White collar crime tends to be a lot safer during the arrest, because those arrests tend to come at the end of a long investigation and the arresting officers know your movements and can put a lot of planning into your apprehension. When you get arrested for robbing a liquor store or shooting a rival gang member, the arrest tends to be a more hastily organized affair, with a lot more improvising).

I've seen dozens of articles in newspapers and magazines that have looked at the police shooting data, and heard numerous stories about it on my local public radio station, but none that I've seen/heard have looked at how this relates to wealth levels. I realize that would be harder to do because that's generally not something that is directly in the data. But without that analysis being done, we are just going to be stuck at the "police are racists"/"blacks commit too much crime" level, which is not productive.
Almost all modern systems of separation of power are modelled to various extent on the principles set out by Montesquieu.

Montesquieu formalised the tripartite system in The Spirit of the Laws published in 1748, describing a model of separation of powers into a judiciary, executive and legislative based on the Roman Republic and the British constitution [1]. He also formulated the principle of checks and balances.

In the context of the US, Montesquieu was a strong direct influence particularly on Madison.

In the context of Turkey Ataturk was very inspired by aspects of established European Democracies, and the Turkish constitution included a very strong formulation of a tripartite system from the 1924 constitution onwards.

What is peculiar with Turkey is that the military sees itself as having a particular strong duty to protect the constitution that if necessary requires direct intervention, and have interceded unusually often, and have been unusual in each time handing power back to elected governments in a relatively orderly manner. Couple this with a constitution that was very radical in pushing secularism onto a very religious population where there are substantial portions of the population that wants religion to play a greater role, and you get the complicated nature of Turkish politics.

(Incidentally the secularism of Turkey was explicitly modelled after France)

[1] Yes, the UK has a constitution; it is just not codified in a single document, but consists of a set of laws and conventions and court decisions that are well documented. Yes, it's a messy system.
It's also been a complaint forever that people's parents, friends, children, and selves keep dying. And yet somehow that hasn't translated into enough market pressure to make them all immortal.

Of course in reality the market pressure for protection from death is much greater than the market pressure for improved battery life while seeing weaker results in the market. Your battery life is not a market pressure issue.
Sorry, missed that second to the last one. No guidelines on downvoting, though???
>If push came to shove, the armed forces swear their allegiance to the British monarch,

I really find it difficult to believe its a desirable state of affairs that the army in a 'democracy' swears allegiance to a hereditary monarch, and that its good, if as you say, people in the army take that seriously.

What if the interests of the monarch conflicted with the interests of the people? In some sense that meant 'push was coming to shove'?

The monarch is just another citizen - another random human - who just happened to be born into a particular family, who some time in the past probably did some game-of-thrones nasty things to come out on top. No one seriously believes they have a divine right to rule any more, so why should their interests be privileged over the interests of the population at large?

Whatever about an elected head of state with symbolic power, the people can at least remove, really, the hereditary monarch argument just seems like an argument from the 18th century.

I'm from the Republic of Ireland, which is culturally very similar to the UK, but wow, what a difference in perspective on this issue!
> Once you have children, you have a foot in the future.

I appreciate the sentiment, but you risk alienating a lot of childless people with this rhetoric. I don't have children, but I like to think I care about the future of my continent, as well.
Great UX, I love software that is simple, and just works!
That's pretty nominal.

Good luck to the governor trying to muster the national guard to confront federal troops.

On which OS?
volatile doesn't offer atomicity, but sig_atomic_t does. You can use sig_atomic_t between threads, but in most cases you need the volatile qualifier as a kind of memory barrier. The guarantees that "volatile sig_atomic_t" provide are very weak and not something you'd normally depend on (especially when you have access to POSIX, C11, or other native atomics), but can be useful on occasion.

I've used it a few times when a library needs to initialize some [very simple] global state, but where I didn't want to require the application to always link in libpthread. Even on Linux that can be an issue for dlopen'd modules. glibc has bugs when late binding libpthread, and some BSDs don't even pretend it works (it just fails loading outright).
Reporting from Ankara, capital. Ongoing sonic booms followed by bombings. Scary as hell. My niece is 8mo, in each jet and helicopter pass we take cover on her and we baricated home with tables. No one knows what is going on, and media claims control is in place.
In the coming months, Google+ will become a Google Apps core service
News flash: Those in power and relying on laws, rules and democracy think it's a good idea it remains.

Well it's completely obvious they would have this stance. I don't think they've really anything to add. Hopefully things stabilise one way or another over there, innocent people getting shot helps nobody.

What's interesting though is whether this instability will affect Turkey's chances for a seat in the EU. I would really like to see a Muslim Country in the EU but at this rate their chances seem to be lessening.
Yes, but in those other systems, the government rules with enough support from parliament to form a majority, even if their party doesn't have a majority on its own. The Nazis just pointed guns at everyone and said, "give us unlimited power."
Wait, are you saying that hyperterm is a criticism of or commentary on hyperterminal?
but it is not even necessary for the unorganized militia to topple whatever entity takes power. The unorganized militia just needs to be omnipresent and unorganized. Not really a staff, but rather millions of pegs supporting the table of society.
Well sure, but I mean hypothetically as a selfish jerk, there's no reason not to do it that way.
If you read the links, it becomes pretty obvious:

Russia + Iran (Shiite) + Syria's Assad (Shiite)
VS
US (and Europe) + Saudi Arabia (Sunni) + ISIS (Sunni)

How are these connections not simple and obvious? Did you also believe that Iraq had something to do with 9/11? How does everyone forget so easily how big the lies are that are told by the US government in order to prosecute war?
For most Muslim immigrants, their facial features and skin color are probably as much an indicator of their background as a head dress, not to mention things like accent that will ultimately give someone away. I really don't buy any argument for these policies. Being realistic, it was definitely a move to antagonize the Muslim population in France.
According to who? I don't think that's a very good analogy. I think it's better to say type theory is just another language in a 'family of assembly languages'. Its superiority is very debatable and not commonly accepted as a foundation.
Presumably, multiple tabs in this browser based terminal would only use one chrome process
I generally much prefer GUI tools to command line tools. I've been working as a software developer for 20 years, so it isn't that I don't know the command line.

I find GUIs generally allow for better discoverablity and I much prefer switching browser tabs to switching tmux/screen terminals.

Perhaps it is possible that different people work in different ways? Maybe the things you are thinking of 'wrong' actually just don't work for you, but really do for others?

For example I know how to use a debugger. I've written my own custom debugging clients, and attached IDEs to live production webservers and debugger code live, so I really do know what I'm doing. But sometimes I prefer outputting data into an Excel spreadsheet because it gives me better context. Sometimes that really is the right tool for the job.

Also, get more, bigger screens. It's made a huge difference for me.
Before Hitler was Hitler he was just another demagogue.

That said, Hitler is about as close to the personification of pure evil as you get in secular society. So it's an inept analogy.
it is 5:12 AM right now in Turkey. Have you been up all night or did you just wake up?
Mapping an alignment gets farmed out to C via rsubread, samtools, etc. as far as annotation, anyone who doesn't use GRanges (or vcfanno, bed tools, etc) is insane. (You shouldn't be aligning locally anyways, it's a waste of resources in most cases. The broad migrated their workflow to Google last I heard; we do a lot in BaseSpace.). I actually don't see the point of alignment at all for RNA.

Your data almost certainly has batch effects, you know. At least with arrays the prep was fully standardized. Outside of a few big shops (UBC, the Broad, etc) it's the goddamned Wild West in terms of prep for lots of what we used to do with microarrays, especially RNAseq.

And of course since single cell techniques are newish, nutty ideas like designed experiments are only just beginning to dawn on people. Fisher would be apoplectic.
The reluctance to move VS to 64-bit is for a different reason. It's doable, but very costly, because of how much old native code is in that thing even today.

On the other hand, as far as UI frameworks go, VS offers a lot of flexibility - it's already a mashup, with some parts using native Win32 controls directly, some parts using WinForms, some parts using WPF, and some parts using HTML5. Basically, as new and better frameworks appeared, new parts of VS adopted them (and occasionally old parts would, as they got rewritten).

But there are no parts of VS that use WinRT (outside maybe of some stuff that relates to WinRT development). For a very obvious reason - there are too many users still on Win7.

BTW, did you know that VC++ guys still have to support the standard library on XP, because the users demand it? I don't mean old versions of it, but even the most recent releases...
> It's illegal for a women to go topless in France (but not a man)

Is it? there are tons of topless women on French beaches. I don't know about specific laws but nobody goes topless or naked while walking in a city (in France or elsewhere). I don't see this as a great restriction on my freedom. Actually, more worrying IMHO is that if a woman were to go topless in the street, she'd get more trouble from some (religious and macho) guys than the police.

> I can't imagine anything less welcoming than being a recent refugee or immgrant

Sorry, but I don't find it scandalous to ask refugee or immigrants to make minor adjustments to their lifestyle. Every society has some common value that it wants to preserve, and as a French, I want as little intrusion of religion in public life. In particular, religion has no place in public school in my opinion, and i really hope it stays this way.
You probably believed Bush's absurd conspiracy theory that Iraq had something to do with 9/11. And you are probably ignoring the news in the (mainstream, non-conspiratorial) press that Saudi Arabia actually supported 9/11 and is supporting ISIS. And you probably ignore the obvious alignment of interests between Russian, Iran (shiite), and Syria's Assad (shiite), and the alignment of their enemies, the US, Saudi Arabia (sunni), and ISIS (sunni). The US isn't even being that secretive about their support of "rebels" in Syria, but most people just read headlines.

But no, it's another nut job conspiracy theory, just like all those nuts who thought Bush lying.
This is International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) not to be confused of International Mathematics Competition (IMC) which is a college level math contest (http://www.imc-math.org.uk/)
