I think that's the major point for anyone: time.

For the sake of a few dollars my time is more valuable or at least better spent doing something else.

I think that is also a reason for many thing such as my region where people hire a guys with a snowblowers to clean out their driveways. Pay $200 for four months and you don't break your back it's worth it.

Right, but ESSA is less than a year old; NCLB and its AYP-based incentives spent nearly a decade and a half shaping American school outcomes (and many of the state and local laws and policies established in order to meet NCLB requirements and the incentives of the AYP system haven't been revised.)

ESSA, OTOH, maintains the basic structure of NCLB, including the same kind of accountability system, but leaves detailed setting of standards and interventions to the states. It may weaken, but seems unlikely to eliminate, the pressures against advanced promotion (particularly in grades 3-8, where it continues the requirement for annual testing) created by NCLB and its AYP-based interventions.
What are you building that needs to be split up in such a way? And how many people access the system?

Are there shared PHP hosts that bill by the request? TFA indicates that is a key difference of serverless, and why it's not shared hosting. The billing model matters to some users as much as the implementation.

Serverless is just shared hosting like S3 is just FTP.

Even in the 90s it seems odd to design a system trivially vulnerable to birthday attacks (with maybe a simplification, but that's how primitives are evaluated: if it fails in a slightly simplified version or environment, it's unfit for service). Now birthday attacks are not exactly applicable to the "how to forge a key with the same short id as that exact person", but with an high number of keys available there may be other ways to ease your attempts to generate collisions, even if that means relaxing your target requirements somehow. Even if there are not, you must be extremely paranoid when designing anything security related: here barely doubling the size of the short id would have mitigated today's problem, but we see that now 64 bits is not even enough. So there has been a fuck-up (with, I agree, a (lack of) security climate in the 90s that might have contributed a lot to that fuck-up), it has enormous consequences right now (given some distro still default their gpg packages to an obsolete version, it seems). We must take what happened and happens right now into account, and learn our lesson: trivial conveniences decreasing security against abstract hole shall be considered an absolute no-go, and something to fix ASAP with absolute priority.

Sadly I do not expect the security approach to change before at least one more people generation, and then to be honest I'm not even sure it will ever change at all if we consider the mean global situation: the approach of far too many people is still "we don't give a fuck, we don't know anything about that, actually we don't even know that we should know something about that, this will just not happen to us, this is only a cost we can skip". Unless they are personally fucked, I don't expect half of that kind of people changing their mind. And then there are now so much software everywhere that I expect that the vast majority are so full of holes this is not even funny, and I expect that the ratio of insecure software will actually increase unless some kind of regulation are put in place -- but then I don't expect regulation to actually be sane and mandate for real security, given that politics want back doors at least every 4 years.

To optimistic people, please consider the following: even in a mainstream IT field, on one of the most used kind of device today, handling personal data all the day, the market leader designed an ecosystem where the OS that most people are actually using is most of the time not patched during most of the lifetime of said devices. If Google can get away with having such insane and shameful approach, why would you expect a random car vendor to have any real security in its embedded software? Obviously it is even worse for gadgets that VC currently think should/will be installed everywhere.

We are heading to security nightmare unless each of you who think security is important wake up and push the hardest they can to improve the situation. Relentlessly.

Erm, in the United States we have HIPAA which directly makes "a third-party cloud service" "legally obliged to respect the privacy of their patients and the confidentiality of medical data". Besides, using AI doesn't have to mean using centralized cloud architecture.
Mongo's problem isn't really the lack of schema or joins or anything. It's the mountain of false assumptions people make around its behavior. If you understand the limitations of the libraries and systems you use, you can solve most problems. The issue is that most people don't understand those limitations. Mongo gets an especially bad rap because it actively pushed misleading information as part of its sales pitch.

> I found it heartening that people didn't immediately form the sort of murderous, paranoid, isolationist mobs that film and tv would have you believe.

I wonder how much of that was due to ignorance about how the disease spread. Knowing what we do about pandemics these days, I could see modern people being far more reclusive and distrustful of outsiders than people were back then.
If you're giving away so many billion, you might as well oversee yourself how they are going to be spent. What sketchiness do you see here? It was already his money.
That's a bit different, you have a different technology (although it still contains a key as a backup) and call it a key.

Anyway the serverless is essentially (as someone here pointed out) the same idea as shared hosting which is very popular with php. It just uses a different name.

> But, don't you think we need clear definition of problem before we go about finding solutions for it ? Is that too much to ask for? Just feels a little odd to talk about overly elaborate solutions for a poorly defined problem.

Not really. In practice it's fairly common for doctors to try treatments without being sure what the cause of the symptom is. I don't think it makes sense to say "well, we're not going to try to do anything to help those with clinical depression until we understand the underlying mechanism" because in the meantime you have people who need help and are not going to get it.
Yep, it's not about technology, more about concentration of power and its effects on society. Technological advancements are massive opportunities for power grabs.

> Your examples require a lot of external resources and material goods to achieve, and the services of others.

I find it interesting that you think this about becoming an Olympian, but not about being mentally stable and happy. Are you sure you are not simply labeling the thing you are unable to do as something requiring a lot of external resources, and then labeling the thing you are able to do as something not requiring such?

Because I would certainly argue that becoming purposefully happy seems sufficiently out of reach for most people that it probably requires some external resources. Like a good social influence, for starters. Someone at least needs to be there to even tell you about such things.

> What we're talking about is possibly altering your food intake, maybe a supplement or two, and other than that it's just your own self discipline.

That's quite a caveat. Self-discipline is a fairly nebulous thing, how are you going to evaluate it? What is it chemically? Why do some seem to have less and some more? At what point would you stop saying: "Just get more self-discipline" towards a problem?

Why is self-discipline not recommended for people with depression, anxiety, etc., if what you're saying is true?

> Because everyone has a brain and a will and those are in the vast majority of cases all you need to do it.

This looks like a claim, but I'm not sure what you're supporting it with. Some people have very poor brains, where does that fit in in your hypothesis? Should this have been prefixed with "healthy, standard brain"? Because that cuts out a pretty big chunk of people.

> I've made radical changes to how I think in the last few years and in so doing have greatly improved the quality of my life, and the first step on that journey was realizing that I was just a regular guy, I would never be a celebrity, never be very wealthy, never be famous and never be some massive achiever, and that there was nothing wrong with that.

I think the main problem with this thinking is that it's very unlikely that you're an average guy, and I'm curious as to when was the last time you've seen a truly average person. Or how about below average person. Chances are, that by all standard metrics - intelligence, social skills, income, health, etc., you're not average. You're not a celebrity, either, but I don't know why you're so concerned with the top 1% when there's 49% in between you could be in.

The core question here is this: if it is all so available, and so straightforward, and open to everyone, and requires one to simply be human with a brain and nothing else, why is it, then, that nobody does it? Why do people choose to be unhappy, why do they choose to be fat?

Given real estate costs in the Bay Area, I'm not surprised that the economics favor in-home nannies (where the day care facility is the home of the family receiving service) over day care centers, compared to areas with more affordable real estate.
This, and, in shared hosting you're paying for an instance and if you overload your traffic or utilization you're done.

In 'serverless' (awful, awful marketing name for function-calls-as-a-service), your computation will be executed on one among a pool of executor units from which you are abstracted away from; therefore in theory your throughput scales to accommodate demand (impacts on your wallet notwithstanding).

But this is there the name comes from -- there's no 'server' as in, a box you can ssh or sftp into and muck around with files or configurations.
There is no way I can get by with only two bottles of water. I live in Southern California and I primarily do long climbs. The biggest climbs right near me are only (Strava) Cat 2, but I like to head out for climbs on Cat HCs. No stores on mountain climbs.

When I tackle Mt. Wilson, I carry a disposable bottle of water in one of my jersey pockets. I will drink this bottle until I arrive at the actual base (but there still is plenty of climbing until that point). I will then throw the bottle away and use my two bottles on my bike to get to the first range station, where I can get more water. Hydration is key. 100k with only two bottles?

Are you trolling?

I guess you don't know how much dedication and effort it takes to earn a good PhD. A PhD in STEM teaches you how to be a good scientist, how to think about problems and how to conduct research. These skills are very useful in pretty much every discipline imaginable.

Not to mention the fact that a PhD in chemistry warrants a very heavy mathematical/physics background. If you honestly think that Thunderf00t has the same credibility as some average Joe on the street about Hyperloop/physics/engineering, you must have a very religious background.
> In the 20th and 21th century we had this women's liberation thing, where both mates should be able to provide for their children, instead of picking the mate that will provide for you.

The things they are talking about are proxies for being able to provide for one's children. Women need to survive child birth and raise a healthy baby (which required breastfeeding until very recently) hence so much emphasis placed on specific physical characteristics.

Women need men to provide for the family while they take care of the children, hence the emphasis on resource accrual.

Yes there are other options now, but they go against our evolution to date. They are also arguably not child-rearing focused and more along the lines of "providing for you".

"[The next computing platform] - I think that's going to be virtual reality and augmented reality."

You have to listen to Zuckerberg on this, because he's good at understanding what people will put up with. I never expected that a sizable portion of the population would walk around looking at smartphones, totally losing situational awareness. Even when not playing Pokemon Go. But that became socially acceptable.

The failure of Google Glassholes seemed to indicate that artificial reality was going to be socially unacceptable. But Zuckerberg might be able to sell it to society. Microsoft talks about it as an office tool (see their "HoloLens" stuff) but that may be the wrong vision.

The right vision may be "Hyperreality".[1] This is a must-see for anybody thinking about artificial reality. These people are much closer to a realistic vision than Microsoft is. (Watch at 1080p if possible.)

> If you are only trying to evaluate the product based on what the seller tells you, you'll be duped. Even if it's 100% true in itself.

I never advised that, but nice strawman. I advised to evaluate the arguments on their own ground. This AC is efficient and will save you money -- that is something you can independently verify, if it's important to you to do so. And if you're buying an AC and you care about efficiency, that seems like the type of thing you should care to do.

That doesn't mean that you should automatically distrust a salesman. It also doesn't mean you should trust them, though apparently that's a dichotomy that exists for you. It's a null input -- there's zero actionable information if what you care about is buying an efficient AC.

> Sometimes, judging the person making the argument, and their motives, is even more important (and insightful) than judging the argument.

That's fine... If your goal is to gain insight into a person and their motives. If your goal is to judge their argument, then it's absolute and complete fallacy.
Well, about 40 years after which isn't that soon. Given that DeFoe was 5 when the plague struck it is probably mostly based on the stories his Uncle told him.
I think societal unrest doesn't necessarily come from lack of education, but from the perceived feeling that parts of society are disenfranchised, a feeling of powerlessness, of being against a "corrupt system" that does not have their best interest at heart. It's the lack of social mobility, or perceived lack of social mobility that causes unrest.

Assuming the 'drive for survival' is a root cause misses the point. There isn't a point.

You exist because your ancestors reproduced. That's it. The traits that they had happened to result in reproduction given their life experiences. A "drive for survival" happens to be one of these traits that shows up often and for easy-enough to understand reasons, but it just happens to be one of the traits that exists in the population.

The environment shapes what reproduces, but it's messy and prone to random circumstance.

Good to hear you like it. Server is written to be lightweight and keeping things simple helped a lot. NodeJS totally sucked memory, Golang helped a lot in that perspective.
I have seen people argue that we wasted a lot of money on the space effort, and if we had not allocated so many resources there we could have had smart phones 10 years sooner. Of course you can never know, but it is something to consider. Those semiconductor breakthroughs probably would have happened sooner - the moon mission was happy with vacuum tubes on the ground and the transistors of the day: their big problems of engineering were not in the electronics area.

Or to put it a different way, if we put similar effort into genetic engineering we could have fire breathing dragons instead. Nobody has been to the moon in my lifetime (and I'm getting old!), and I have no hope of going (though probably someone will go in the next 10 years it won't be me). At least the circus could show me a dragon.

>Maybe, but what effect, and is it "harm"?

Indeed, that's the question! One thing is certain -- that whole quality-ease of access apogee I was going on about earlier is making it a lot harder to study the subject wrt "effects", because finding non-pornwatching WEIRD [0] controls is basically impossible [1].

On the other hand, most studies do seem to indicate that watching porn is good for your views about gender equality. And the chance of prostate cancer later in life is decreased via, er, vigorous masturbation in one's young adult life. Which is great! I just can't help but draw parallels to the other ways in which modern society tricks some otherwise reasonable element of the human machine (like putting refined sugar in things, or the blue in our screens making our suprachiasmatic nuclei think the sun's still up at 1am).

[0] Western, educated, industrialized, rich and democratic. People who hail from societies like these are overwhelmingly the subjects of psychological research (and further selection-bias-y still, they're usually university students), to the exclusion of the other 88% of humanity. http://www.apa.org/monitor/2010/05/weird.aspx

[1] eg, http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2009-12/uom-ate120109... While this didn't actually coalesce into a study, there's actually a lot more examples of this. New media loves reporting on it.
I am also very curious and will hope for a response from someone far more knowledgeable.

However, from my own research and experience I actually think there is no real answer someone else can give you. All of our bodies are different. Beyond that, the dietary advice we all choose to follow is even more different. I have a friend who basically fasts yet works out twice a day. I myself do something reminiscent of intermittent fasting with a touch of keto macros and do fairly well. Others follow a more "typical" diet and do just fine in their own ways.

My point is, get some basics and then just see what works for you.
