Why haven't you been forthcoming about this?

If you're playing to the 'secure by default' crowd, they aren't going to just trust that you're on the case if you don't communicate. Platitudes are something people watch out for when security is on the line, and they'll chose another solution if they think you're full of shit.

You have to show, at all times and all things, how you're thinking about the problem. 15 months of dead air is a lot to atone for.
One possible reason is that GNU parallel is a perl script.
Great reply. Thanks. I think I'll create a working prototype and come back with my problems(or possibly solutions).
This is awesome!

One of the things I've been thinking about lately is what are the languages that lend themselves to "true" livecoding. Like what if you want to change the class hierachy while you're already in a game and the objects are moving around? What if you wanna move a door in the in game editor mid-level but merge this edit back at the start of the level?

Turns out livecoding and live property editing interfaces are an entry into thinking about the next question: what are the abstraction and logic storage models that allow for very radical live coding changes as your app is still running and help you explore?

So far I have liked the idea of prototype inheritance but with the objects stored in a reduxy immutable situation. It seems to get at both the functional and OO side of the "expression problem."
I don't know if this has been mentioned yet in the conversation, but it's very important to know that raid is _not_ a backup. You still need some kind of backup solution even with a RAID system.

if you want to learn more about this topic, come on over to www.reddit.com/r/datahoarder and read and ask about it. We're friendly.
I quite like it to be able to interop with Java and C. This allows the leveraging of existing libraries of those languages.
Both are very interesting reads. Thanks.
NSO Group claims not to launch attacks itself; rather it only sells tools to do so. So it might even be that the same government has targeted him with all three hacking tools.
I live in a newish area. New enough that the house has fiber instead of copper. However, it wasn't until recently that AT&T started offering 1gbps service at $70/mo.

Prior to that, AT&T offered 6mbps service implemented using DSL over fiber complete with a DSL modem. So I was stuck with Comcast.

I like to think Google Fiber saying they were coming helped push AT&T into doing something with the fiber. For that, I've benefited from Google Fiber.

To AT&T: WTF? You had nice fiber in the area for years and the best you could do was emulate POTS?! Better late than never I guess.

Then why not just use Clojure?
I think that is true. Where they seek to get that last bit of performance, they get creative and come up with new and better ways to do things. But I don't think C# is the language to do this, it lacks too many low level constructs.
Thought that might be the case - it's an Atom C2758 on a SuperMicro board.
Yes, that's the challenge. But with some assumptions (within an urban area, neighboring plots have about the same land value; when a plot is sold at two different times, the difference in the prices may reflect the rise in land value), one could get some reasonable estimates.
I wonder if there really is a big appeal for 1Gbps fiber for most people right now. I want fiber badly but i know that many more reasonable perople are perfectly fine with their 50-200Mbps cable/DSL connections and see no reason to upgrade.
Also when it comes to getting Fiber to the building and distributing costs, almost nobody is willing to pay that until they absolutely have to.
Hello, thank you for the rare nice words in this thread!

I got a bit hit by surprise by the submission of this article to HN (it’s like two weeks old now) so it caught me a bit off guard close before a new release and there’s some inconsistency between the GitHub README and the docs on RTD.

The version that’s on PyPI now <https://pypi.org/project/attrs/> has it as the first sentence after the first code sample anyone ever sees (and people still complained because the just don’t read :() and the new version <https://attrs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/> has a whole section around the example explaining attrs’ scope and ib/s: <https://attrs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/overview.html> (the new version also adds and promotes aliases that make more sense but that’s beyond the point).

I feel like I’ve really done my due here and I’ll have to accept that I can’t make everyone happy. :|

(setq foo (1 2 3))

So how does evaluation work here? Why isn't (1 2 3) evaluated? Or is it not evaluated because 1 is not a function? In which case, is it not possible to create a literal list where the first element is a function?
You're probably right about the logging being a bit too far, it was mainly my curiosity getting the best of me. One of my big assumptions was that all of these domains were just owned by one domain broker and this wasn't actually a systemic problem with the implemented importation methodology. I also thought it would be mild because if they had been deleted from an account they were likely no longer used (or so I had wrongfully assumed).

My thoughts exactly ...
If dont want to care for the OS, who do you expect to keep it in check? Someone has to worry about it: you can try and abstract it away and minimize it but its never gone.

I see this line of thought that somehow self-hosted "clouds"/clusters look after themselves, but thats usually not the case.

You'd come close by buying QNAP or Synology hardware, they provide software updates (including OS). Even buying software solutions like Unraid. I dont know how maintainable FreeNAS is for someone who doesnt want to worry about OS tho..
I'm familiar only with AWS, and it supports FreeBSD.
For an explanation on why that would kill your CRT: http://www.6502.org/users/andre/petindex/poke/index.html
To provide some weight the other way, we've been using Docker in production for about 3 years now, and have not had any big issues. Obviously, you guys probably have a bit more extreme use cases at AWS. Things that bug us are generally missing features, but those gradually get added in over the course of the years, though some get less love than others.

For example for some reason it's still not possible to ADD something and change its permissions/ownership in one layer, resulting basically in a doubling of the size of such layers.

I wouldn't go as far as saying it's in any kind of a 'sad' state though. It's a neat wrapper over some cool Linux kernel features, and it's been that way since before 1.0.

I'm curious how you even get performance issues from Docker, what feature did cause performance issues for you?

There's no "paradox". It seems the author noticed that climbing recently got added to the 2020 list of Olympic sports, and is trying to create controversy where there is none.

It's neat to see a "modern" web page and extensive documentation for such an incredibly old piece of software.

Random access just assumes you can instantly jump to a memory location. In any physical instantiation, you're still limited in how quickly you can access by the speed of light.

(It's true that you can pack the memory into a 3D volume and thus have a cubic improvement in access time, but you can do the same thing with a multi-dimensional TM.)

No one. This is why climbing making it into the 2020 Olympics is going to create a lot more trouble for the sport than good. Generally, climbing (be it alpine mountaineering or more approachable "rock climbing") is horrendously boring to watch, except for other climbers.

Climbing, done well, looks almost effortless. No one wants to watch someone _not_ struggle.

I don't know how it will be monetized. Probably just via gear endorsements, like all the other sports. :(
This may help. Think this way: the recruitment process of these companies is designed to acquire neurons, human thinking power in the same way they need electricity, disks or servers, not personas.

They use puzzles as benchmarks. Why do they should care about you as a person or your feelings?

The good traffic should be already permitted in the firewall. If you're still having issues the firewall rules are probably not being enforced. I've seen this happen like when an any any allow rule is left in from debugging ("just to get things working").
These offerings work well as a pure NAS - your data is backed up and available.

Where they fall down for me as a home user is in their inability to offer other services. For example, photo sharing. I have a fast home internet connection and all my photos are already on the NAS. But the photo sharing capabilities are very, very weak; so inevitably I have to use another service (ie Google Photos, Dropbox, Flickr) if I want to make those photos available to myself and others while away.

The same goes for other forms of media sharing, self-hosted email, etc.. The boxes offer these things - and the appeal is obvious to the end-user - but the potency is so weak as to be essentially unusable.
Sanitation work like Septic is far more important than any cute software start-up, that's for sure. I think my last honest job was cleaning out chicken-stalls on a farm when I was 12.
No, Medicare is specifically prohibited by law from negotiating drug prices. They can and do negotiate prices with hospitals and doctors, but not drug companies.
> It doesn't help that a lot of streets in Japan don't have names.

That's because Japan doesn't generally use street-based addressing, it's area-based from top to bottom, so street names are replaced by block numbers (I guess small villages could be blockless and jump directly from village to building as well).
Not quite, only one person can, so if you add first, it's yours. Typically they have you add the domain and then you switch the DNS and in that configuration you wouldn't be vulnerable at all.
Scrum, particularly the daily standup, burn down charts, and retros
Typically, it's the potential to choose that leads to improvement, across a wide range of goods. To claim that it's all different for schools, you'd need to demonstrate a general model of the dynamics.

And FWIW, the coding bootcamp I went to (for profit) did more for my career than my non-profit university.
It's pretty understandable actually. Most DNS providers do similar, it's really just the admins fault for not switching their DNS, likely because they were abandoned and unused.
I meant, what's special in terms of profits skewing incentives.
It's better to give a generous fixed vacation allotment - then everyone knows where they stand and what's expected of them. Maybe even combine it with conference allotment, if there are conferences your employees really want to go to, but not to staff your company's booth.

I get six weeks vacation per year, and therefore don't mind spending one of them helping out with a conference I love.

However, there are no rollover days, and my manager would catch hell from the works council if I hit November with four weeks still available for the year - unless I already had approval to take December off from earlier in the year.

Edited to add: I live in Germany, and my employer has a contract with IG Metall, the big metalworkers union, and six weeks vacation was part of that deal.
There are no real anti-oxygen climbers. The article is trying to create controversy where there is none.

It all comes down to style. More minimalistic of an approach usually equals more "style points" (which are worth exactly as much as you think they are.)

If you and I were to go try Everest, we'd be aiming for "completion", not "style points", and we'd probably use O2.

Ask HN: Can someone explain me the interface of Pinterest?
Is it me or Pinterest's UI is ugly? You can't really go back and forth between Pins without losing at some point the direction. It also takes a bit to load the related Pins and that also makes the interface go up and down. Am I doing something wrong or maybe they just want me to install their app?
How does making a domain that does not resolve suddenly resolve negatively impact a user, again? The domain could not have possibly been operational before the circumstances that brought about this scenario, and there is no legitimate traffic they could possibly be receiving. DigitalOcean could certainly improve authentication here but there are dozens of authoritative services that do not, and this is not a new problem (but is a valuable reminder). I can think of four free providers off the top of my head that this trick would work against.

Put another way, the domains were entirely unresolved and offline. Then they weren't. If anything, this is a nice lesson about keeping your zone and delegations clean, and I'm glad I read it. Nobody got hacked, nobody lost traffic, nobody was impacted. If there was sensitive traffic going to a non-resolving domain, I have more questions than answers. I agree adding the full set was probably a bit much, but you can make that point without misplaced concern for alleged harm.

I'm not impressed with signing up for HN to hit someone like this and your far worse and flagged followup, particularly since it really looks like astroturfing. I guess take solace that the OP pretty much guaranteed he won't get the zones again, since they're for research.

(Nice ninja edit and deletion.)
Except this isn't even a vulnerability, this is expected behavior given the design I think, to encounter an issue with it, you'd need to leave your domain with DO's nameservers, but delete it from your account. This would only happen if it's something you're not using anymore, or if you're a severely terrible admin.

I think they're doing just fine. https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/docker/funding-round...

> how self entitled the community around these projects are.

As a member of the "self entitled" community, I see a lot of ignorance in this comment. The developers of Docker are not just the >100 employees of Docker Inc, but also the over 1,000 members community who have contributed to the Docker project.

Frustration with Docker isn't about entitlement, it is about frustration with a governing body run by a for-profit company with $180 million of funding who has shown a pattern of favoring shiny new features over stability and left their own community to clean up the mess of bugs left in their wake.

So no, I don't think the community is self-entitled, I think the community just wants to see the project they've worked so hard to help build be competently maintained.

Exactly my point, when whatsapp was bought, they said all these things, that whatsapp doesn't sell out customer information, that whatsapp will never have calling facility because they want to focus on texting alone.

I think they should remove the "why we do not sell ads" too, there is no point in this two faced behaviour.

It would need to recurse because you want something you can encode in JSON, not a dictionary containing a list containing miscellaneous instances.

We have an example there of an 'attrs' instance, containing a list containing 'attrs' instances, and all of the instances turn into dictionaries.
The obvious case is architecture support. A lot of embedded devices are not targeted by gcc and LLVM.
An additional vector for this kind of attack is to create a zonefile for a subdomain off of a working, live domain administered by the same DNS server.

EG if foo.com is a working site on your DNS provider, try creating a zonefile for bar.foo.com and see if you can create an A record to point to your own server.

This used to be something shared web hosting services running CPanel/WHM were particularly susceptible to. Clearly, the risks here are both phishing/identity and cookie credential stealing.
The problem is that most doctors don't take treatment costs into account when writing prescriptions. They may not even know the cost themselves. And patients can't really be expected to keep up with the prescription drug industry enough to request cheaper alternatives.

There are competitors to the Epipen but they don't get prescribed as much. I would surmise that has something to do with marketing budgets. Maybe we should join the rest of the world and ban drug advertisements? Oh, and allow Medicare to negotiate a bulk rate for drugs rather than pay MSRP[1].
