>Not when AMD is going to offer 8-10 core chips for less than half that price soon, with similar performance.

This has been touted every year since the initial Athlon 64 came out and knocked intel's teeth out until it came back with the pentium pro based Yona and Nehalem chips and buried netburst.

It's still yet to be determined of Zen has anywhere near the SCP IPC that Skylake/Haswell based CPU's do so far there was only one leaked benchmark of a game in which it scored anywhere from pretty low to close to what a Haswell-E CPU brings to the table.

The pricing on Zen, especially big Zen which was the only CPU that was close to Intel's Haswell-E lineup is also unlikely to be a <200-250$ card, it's likely to cost just under what the 6800K costs which might not make it very competitive.

Also it's yet to be seen what chipset we are getting, atm you shouldn't buy AMD not because the CPU's are utter garbage, but the chipset is utter trash.

No PCIE 3.0 support, no USB 3.0/3.1, no NVME, no M.2 no many other things.

Intel's chipsets are and always were the golden standard (ever since NVIDIA stopped making Nforce 2:)) and AMD really needs to not only be competitive but to match them or beat them as far as peripherals go.

AMD is in a disadvantage out of the bat for no Thunderbolt support but it needs to come strong with low latency PCIE, a lot of PCIE interconnects, 10 gig USB 3.1 and native displayport and many other things.

If that will be a standard and the performance are at least in the 90th percentile compared to Intel AMD stands a chance, anything below that people again would not even bother.

Has anybody found a way to fully disable the lockscreen? I don't wanna upgrade unless I can fully disable it. I've tested a couple of solutions on another PC, but it seems like it doesnt work on reboot or on the first boot.
Adding to your point; I don't think we can even consider ARM to be a RISC, as Chris Celio is quick to point out in that presentation. It has instructions which are very nearly as complex as x86s, and each year they come closer to having as many as x86 has as well.
> No organisation should have more than one regular-use repo (special-use repos, of course, are special). Multiple repos are a smell.

Mind elaborating on this?
Great, now we just need walkthroughs to turn off all the other hidden features. How do I disable the feature where it's recording my games all the time, invisibly, just in case I push a hotkey to save it? I've also heard that it sends screenshots back to MS every few seconds and at this point that doesn't even seem like a crazy conspiracy theory.
If you don't have the time to obtain the expertise one can still do good checks (only not in the details). For example if we are willing to accept the correctness (in some formalized sense) of a statistical test, we can still check whether it was applied correctly (or alternatively you can accept that it was applied correctly and try to understand the proof details behind the statistical methods).
This way you will surely not get a complete understanding, but neverthess can check parts of the chain of conclusions and falsification attempts.
I'm sure I could go back 5 years and see an almost identical complaint about Heroku.

IT seems to me a lot more enthusiast desktops are using xeon processors instead of cores, this being one of the reasons people are making the swap- you gain a lot of performance/$$ because loosing integrated graphics saves a fair amount of money. The average user still needs integrated graphics though, so I don't see the core ever going away. Who knows though, they might come out with some enthusiast grade core processors that don't have int graphics.

"Don't legislate my body" is completely irrelevant to people who think it's murder, and "stop killing babies" is nonsensical to people who think there aren't any babies involved.

I feel like you s/Math/<any scientific discipline>/g and this article would still hold. Yes, the sciences and engineering, and pretty much every academic pursuit has been historically restricted to white men in the western world, but that doesn't have much bearing on the modern world.

If anything, I feel mathematics is more open than many other STEM fields. I got my degree in mathematics, and I noticed the gender gap in classes was nonexistent. In the calculus and statistics and other classes which were required for engineers, the classroom distribution would definitely skew male. But in the pure math classes, like topology, abstract algebra, real analysis, etc that would only be taken by math majors, the gender distribution was 50-50. In several of my classes the women outnumbered the men. And this was also true of the faculty: 3/6 professors I took classes with were women.
> It was mostly because the monitoring and alerting were now split into many different pieces

Well, there's your problem - you need a monitoring microservice and an alerting microservice! Well, those may be too coarse by themselves, but once you break them down into 5 or 6 microservices each, you'll be ready for production.

tz libraries shipped a new version for the tzdata update, as they do more or less every time the database is updated (monthly or so). 9 months lead time is actually pretty good, consider: April 29th the Egyptian government announced they'd go on DST on July 7th, with no further information until June 27th when Parliament proposed to abolish DST and passed a (apparently non-binding) vote for that on June 28th, following which the Egyptian government announced they wouldn't go on DST after all on July 4th.
Don't be. Judging from all the apps I tested, making a good calendar must be a really hard problem (but I never built one myself). At least for my use case. I mean, how much money have MS spent on making the new Outlook web thing, and it doesn't even work? I even tried in another computer with a new account, to see if I was doing something wrong. That's how bad my experience was. And Google stuff isn't that much better either. The lock-in is real. The integration with Google Keep is the best thing I can say about it.

I just didn't got the confirmation e-mail. Tried several times the same day. Maybe it was a temporary problem since I tried again and was able to confirm my account.

Regarding the UI, it's just a matter of opinion. I use a lot of apps with bad UI and don't care but a calendar is something really personal and important for me that I just can't deal with something that doesn't feel natural. But my opinion shouldn't matter since I'm just an overly judgmental dev and not the 99% type of regular, business user.
As a budding programmer I like the ideas here, but I want to take it with a grain of salt and figure it's best to have a wide breadth of knowledge before going deep. Or rather, gain competence before striving for mastery.
I think what I'm doing is different to makerOS, but there's some similarity with manulith. I've tried to make the website as easy to use as possible for both the buyers and sellers. Makerloom also has the best rate for sellers/makers in this space. Most other companies take 30-45% of the sales price but we take 25%. I'm really hoping that people can see that. I'd appreciate it greatly if you took a closer look at it so that you can give me some more feedback.
Seems like a terrible idea if "different teams" actually means "random assortment of developers for this specific project." If it actually means "different teams," e.g. you rarely if ever would move from one team to another, I don't see the issue if one team uses tabs and one uses spaces, or you have different naming conventions or whatever.
So, a specific MD code may or may not work well with KNL -- we don't have data. KNL looks quite attractive for other chemistry, given all the vector units, large amount of fast memory, and ability to run realistically-sized examples without the network, or potentially the network-on-chip. We'll see how it pans out.

Well, you use the standard you like, and the other team can use the standard they like. Then you write a micro service to convert from one standard to the other.
> No organisation should have more than one regular-use repo (special-use repos, of course, are special). Multiple repos are a smell.

I would modify this slightly. Larger organizations with independent teams may want to run on per-team repos. Conway's law is an observation about code structure but it sometimes also makes good practice for code organization. And of course, sometimes the smell is "this company is organized pathologically".

Another problem is that large monolithic repositories can be difficult to manage with currently available software. Git is no panacea and Perforce isn't either.
A "fair" rate would be under 15% considering that is still a lot of money and taxes are just a fancy way of stealing. If the government is so hungry for money, it shouldn't be.
The smart companies already have more qualified applicants than slots, and often arbitrary hiring processes to boot. Not everyone has the luxury of working for one.
Context matters, though.

Being one of 14,000 employees let go because they chose to eliminate that entire half of the company doesn't necessarily mean anything. Being one of four engineers chosen to be let go from a team of 20 can say something about your skill level.
Yeah it is a straw man from what I can see.

"Math can be used to model just about everything, and so can make a meaningful contribution to almost every endeavour" is a completely different statement from "Everyone has access to learning math to do anything math-related they want".

The second argument is not one I have heard people making, and if they make it I doubt they would express it as "Math is Everywhere". I have heard people make the first argument as "Math is Everywhere".
Then there are 16 competing standards.
Right, exactly. The key question is whether the algorithm's resolution heuristic takes into account the intent of the edit, and I'm not sure the algorithm in the article makes an effort to do that. (Not saying it doesn't, I just don't understand how it does, if it does.)
Isolation is a strong argument. You don't want one process to starve another. You can get isolation via one-host-per-service or you can get it using cgroups. Docker sort of gives you both, without the waste of one-per-host and with a manageable set of tooling around cgroups.
The point I wanted to make is that in that market segment, you can choose between many small or a few large cores for the same price, not just buy a bigger CPU for more money.
> No organisation should have more than one regular-use repo

Flat out wrong for any organization with multiple products. Which, let's be honest, is most of them.
The second part of my comment was an edit, don't know if you saw.
Someone once suggested to me that 'big data' begins when it doesn't fit in RAM in a single rack any more.
"the most important thing is not the fact that it's conflict-free"

CRDT is actually an acronym for both "Conflict-free replicated data type"
and "Commutative replicated data type". Both properties are provided by a CRDT by definition. Both properties are equally important.

"(if it's operations based, rather than merge based)"

CRDTs are commutative by definition irrespective of whether they are operation based or state based.
> Wow, that's a really interesting case. I guess the same thing would happen whenever an offset was adjusted after you store a value in UTC intended for another timezone.

Yep, or if a DST change was added or rescinded (which can happen on surprisingly short orders, many governments love fucking up with DST, this year 2016 we got an infirmation of Egyptian DST with 3 days lead time).
Sorry, I didn't say it properly - by completly disabling I meant the fact that even with some of the tweaks the lockscreen kept appearing before the login screen(e.g. after reboot). But I wanna keep the login screen while disabling the lockscreen.
>Do you think that the efforts should be to reverse it.

Nothing stops you to use continuous integration with this workflow. For instance, Travis-CI and Codeship support branching (they can tell you if the new build will be fine or not).

I didn't mention that in the post because it's intended for beginners and adding that info there could maybe be a little too much :/
I think that this point of slow down in productivity is often completely forgotten when when discussing the AI/robot revolution/etc.

But what do you gain from distributing processes that mostly don't do much to more cores, at the cost of single-thread performance? (Which I'm going to assume to compare roughly equal power usage or costs. Or is that assumption horribly broken?)

Cortana is yet another feature, that you wouldn't turn on, if it was off by default.

I don't truly understand the goal of Cortana, other than "Apple has Siri". Some of the person assistant features seems handy, but do you really need to talk to your computer? The only place where it seems like something I'd need is when cooking and want to look up a recipe.

Microsoft efforts would have been better spend improving the built in search.
Well, I consider that by definition tightly coupled microservices should never be done. If it's not possible to decouple that function then it should not be in a micro service.
Regarding to JAR file size, you could use minimizeJar flag of maven-shade-plugin, add only needed aws sdk artifacts as dependency. You could also use https://github.com/lambadaframework/lambadaframework which is the JAVA-AWS Lambda framework I created.
Please share the data, particularly for the built-in interfaces on ~70 cores which are supposed to be available this year (given the blanket statement). Omni-path seems to be worrying Mellanox, judging by a recent visit.
Do you think the result could also be a dramatic improvement if you kept old system and do those other things except splitting into microservices?

I can't get my head around how people introduce changes to their system if they have to update 12 different microservices at once? It must be horrible.

Often you hear stories how people are converting monolithic app to microservices - but this is easy. Rewriting code is easy and it's fair to say it always yields better code (with or without splitting into microservices - it doesn't matter).

What I'd like to hear is something about companies doing active development in microservice world. How do they handle things like schema changes in postgres where 7 microservices are backed by the same db? What are the benefits compared to monolithic app in those cases?

It seems to me that microservices can easily violate DRY because they "materialise" communication interfaces and changes need to be propagated at every api "barrier", no?
Not at all sarcastic. I've seen endless wheel warring over spaces/tabs, level of indents. Mostly I ignore it.
I agree that expressing the problem can become more confusing in the presence of more levels of preemption, however it can be an effective way to organize large numbers of criteria. If your customers are mainly working with biobjective problems, I can see why you wouldn't be too interested in adding more levels!

That's being a bit ridiculous . I get it that the news/cable stations plaster every cop shooting of a "black" person all over TV anytime it happens but I think it's not as bad as you're acting. We're at multi-decade lows of crime. I think everyone is hyper-sensitive with the news cycle.

Absolutely, a package manager server should state in their license file that when you submit a package you consent to it being cached on said server.

You can make cache coherence scale to multiple cores with precise tracking and the overhead of precise tracking can be reduced by arranging your cores as clusters.

Exact tracking basically requires a bit field with one bit for each core. The problem is with the storage overhead since a 64 core cpu would need 64 bits per cache line. However if you had a 64 core CPU you could partition it into 8 clusters with 8 cores each which means you only need 8 bits per cache line for exact tracking.

> With multiple repos, they break your build, but don't know it. You don't know it either, until you update your copies of their repos — and now you have to figure out what they did, and why, and how to update your logic to handle their new control flow, and then you update again and get to do it again, until finally you ragequit and go live in a log cabin with neither electricity nor running water.

I don't see how this is a problem if you are pushing frequently and have a CI system. You know within minutes if the build is broken. If it broke, don't pull the project with the breaking changes.

My point is, I don't think one approach is inherently better than the other. Both require effort on the part of the teams to manage changes (or a CM team), and both require defined processes.
Yeah, they neutered a lot of stuff with KF5 (the elimination of KLocale honestly makes me want to go back to Windows), but KIO is still around.

> The tradeoffs between these two criteria can either be managed by some supervisory decision maker (the driver of the car in this example) or by merging the multiple criteria into some single criteria and phrasing the problem as a standard optimization problem.

I've been a professional developer for ten years myself, I've seen my part of hype. But I've seen way more people not even trying new things (and trying does not mean sticking with it on your main project), probably because they could not stand the idea that the experience they are so proud of could be invalidated in any way.
Cortana would have been far more often used if it was isolated to controlling the OS, which i find it cannot do (well?).
