Not actually, but swarm services with docker application bundle (dab) seems like a replacement for docker-compose and makes it redundant. All they had to do was promote compose from a cli tool to docker daemon itself and it would be great, not a major fundemental change. Now, I cannot even get the logs of a service because it is failing too fast and I can't catchup with it.

People being used to the Docker commands is a very weak reason rkt isn't a valid candidate. Let's not forget the most important aspect of rkt, and that is that it follows the container spec standard.
> Sure, you can read the news and comments posted on this (https://news.ycombinator.com/) webiste, but you most certainly CANNOT post comments without having an account.

Many sites allow anonymous posting. Even those that don't, you can create an "anonymous" throwaway account. That doesn't work for Facebook because an anonymous throwaway account would have no friends and no more access to anything than not logging in at all.

You don't need what Facebook is doing for access control. The alternative is to post encrypted content and only give the key to people you want to allow access to.

Probably what that really needs to be popular is support for encoding a decryption key into a URI which isn't passed to the webserver but rather used by the client's browser to decrypt content from the server.

Honestly since brexit I've been constantly amazed how little Brits and Americans understand continental Europe's opinion on the EU.

On the continent euro-sceptics operate on the extreme political fringe, they never got into any parliament in numbers and are considered toxic as coalition partners.

The EU won't blow apart, the EU is a fact of life and an economic necessity, Brexit was so shocking because it is indeed unbelievable that anyone would try to quit the EU.
While Docker is probably not the last word in containerization technology (which is a good thing), the idea behind it is quite powerful: Small, lightweight, self-contained objects that perform a given function and that we can plug together in many ways. I think the impact of having something like this will not be limited to traditional DevOps but will permeate many other areas as well, like data analysis and the delivery of end-user applications.
Super clickbait title for yet another enterprise single-sign-on product.
> Irish sentiment is and remains vastly more pro-EU than it ever was in the UK.

Then why on earth would Apple think Ireland will side with them rather than the EU? If anything, the EU holds all the cards here since Ireland will have to negotiate with the EU post-Brexit, and who knows if Apple taxes will be a bargaining chip?
The placebo effect is a real thing that actually has benefits. In this particular case, even if smiling is purely placebo, all is well because a smile is free (of charge and of adverse side effects).

But in the case of many medicines, just because magic-miracle-pill-x "works for you" doesn't really mean its a good idea if it actually only works due to placebo: maybe its really expensive (for something that may as well be just sugar) or maybe there is actual medication that is much more effective or maybe its safety hasn't been fully studied as is the case with much alternative medicine.

In any case, Hitchens's razor applies:

What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
My current company learned this a couple of years ago - on their first Node project after deciding to move away from .Net, it ended up a giant monolith, and so 4 years ago or so they decided to move towards microservices. The burden of trying to upgrade a monolith is colossal, and it is where microservices shine.

This is simply due to growing up in the country side though, isn't it? Nobody living in any at least semi-major western city in the late 60s would have had these experiences.
That's not consistent at all, since what companies need isn't consistent.
Factory automation today means almost nobody is needed to work factory jobs. And there is no longer a path from the factory floor to technical, engineering or management roles. Just minimum-wage standins for broken/missing equipment (moving a box from one conveyor to another during a rush).

34 million Americans resort to minimum-wage jobs because there's nothing else. This is not a fad or a downturn; its the new normal.

If wall-clock time is being affected by non-constant factors (as the article convincingly asserts), why on earth wouldn't you want to model those factors with big-O notation? Moreover, why do you think that people uninterested in wall-clock time wouldn't care about constant factors, but people interested in wall-clock time unilaterally would?
Last year, Apple had $72.5B in worldwide pre-tax profits and paid $19.1B in US corporate income taxes. That's an effective rate of ~26%, even thought > 60% of their revenue is from sales outside the US.

This is a great example of how intellectual property supports and hampers innovation. Board games can be protected by trademark, copyright and patents; patenting game used to be very common (I have a copy of Camelot from 1932 with the patent notice prominently displayed).

But these days board game publishers generally don't bother with patents. Dominion could certainly have patented its gameplay; but it wasn't, and so we have dozens and dozens of deckbuilding games pushing forward all kinds of innovations in game design.
I hope rkt, runc and similar get donated to the CNC Foundation and get a direction there
Yes, you can: the designated prisoner waits until the signal has been fipped n+k times where n is the number of prisoners and k is the number of times the guard can intervene. All other prisoners flip it to that state if it isn't already. See the other replies.

No, it is not. Before 2015 many companies (one prominent example being Amazon) declared their entire European income in Luxembourg and payed about 1 percent tax on that money. This tax loop hole has since been closed by the EU, Luxembourg lost about 10 percent of its budget because of this. Today when somebody from e.g. Germany buys a product from Amazon.de, Amazon pays tax in Germany for this product.
The idea of the "Opposite View" is so naive that I can't really believe anybody would imagine it can convince anyone of anything. Have they never had an argument in real life?

It also seems to ignore something even more fundamental: people plain and simple do not like engaging with the "opposite view". Cognitive dissonance is painful. People will always avoid it.

Am I advocating people stay in their "bubble"? Kind of.

In fact, it's become a fairly firm belief of mine that the social network to upend Facebook et al. (if any) will be based on a) creating bubbles around different groups based on "mood affiliation" or some other sort of behavioral likeness b) create a smart topology around those groups to minimize intra-group infighting while maximizing overall information serendipity (i.e. filter "opposing view" information to provide me with just the right information that I'm missing to complete my personal view, not the crap that's going to enrage me).

The underlying issue that never seems to be fully explained here, and the reason why I'm bullish on the "Balkans" model (nicely coined term, but hardly neutral) social networks is simple: bounded rationality. Unless we come up with brain augmentation devices that allow us to consume more and more information, we're limited in the amount of information we can consume, and filtering information intelligently is the only way for us to maximize the utility of this information. Ergo, halving your information consumption to see things from the other side only (assuming there's only 2 sides...) works if it provides more value than consuming more information from the same side. So far, I've never seen any compelling reason why it should (to echo a deleted comment, I can't see how reading an InfoWars article after reading a HuffPo editorial is going to do much for me). So there will always be a form of "observable information universe" with boundaries defined by our capacity to ingest information.

It seems to me many people have a huge blind spot/bias against "filter bubbles" because they refuse to even entertain the idea that they could be incredibly valuable. That's probably because most of the material written on the subject so far (e.g. the Eli Pariser book) are hopelessly simplistic and seem to ignore how people actually behave w.r.t to the information they consume (to summarize: analyse everything through the lens of "viewpoints" and "opposing viewpoints", politicize all information consumption, etc. What if I'm mostly reading math articles on the web? Do I need to read the ones that claim that 2+2 != 4?).

Now, although the "Opposite view" idea seems, frankly, dumb to me, there may be a way to make a lot more interesting: give me the "Nearest but slightly different view". That to me would be a far more serious contender to broaden people's view of a topic effectively.

And I have a hunch that such a thing likely won't be shared by someone with an "Opposite viewpoint". It will come from within the "filter bubble".
That's not why. Good for you on using Docker 1.12 with Swarm mode, if that's what works for you. Have fun in production.
Thank you. I always thought it was somehow only about a correlation between submission time and vote count.
The fact is that it was illegal. It didn't need a rule to decide its legality. I can only speculate that they didn't expect to be forced to pay all the tax back. Perhaps they expected a kind of warning given the local government was on their side. There were/are others doing this (i.e. Microsoft,Google etc) so they decided to stick with the herd.
I sure would like to dump all of my passwords. I had always been told that the biggest risk of having so many passwords is password reuse. ie If the password for an inconsequential service is stolen it can be used to access more important accounts.

In 2009 or so I had 4 I would use and I had two more that I used only for my Gmail and my bank.

Two or three years ago I got tired of it and now I use three, one for Gmail, one for the bank, and one for everything else. I know I'm probably not applying best practices, but I'm so tired of it.

For an article that mostly read as PR for Okta, I'm glad that they mentioned browser/OS keychains and OAuth.

If Mozilla Persona had a big push from a sales force behind it like it appears Okta has, I wonder if they couldn't have blown out this whole market a while ago.
The syntax abstraction of cloud formation alone is worth using terraform for me. The state file I delegate to tearing the infrastructure down. No more.

Use the AWS API and your config management API ( chef ) to manage the state of the systems.
I agree. I said the same thing on a Reddit post.
The article isn't bad but this part made me shake my head:

> Gottlieb writes, “physical bodies are . . . not quite what they seem, but are only appearances somehow thrown up by monads” seems less extravagant in the light of contemporary string theory, which holds that everything that exists is the product of vibrating one-dimensional objects

Poor string theory used to justify such nonsense..
We could have rockets and Moon bases etc as the norm, but when we got to the Moon early on we realized it really wasn't that interesting. Infinite cat videos in your pocket - that's what people really wanted.

It's not that moon isn't interesting, it's that we decided that the moon isn't interesting.

Now, we are on the verge of commercial reusable rocket and launch cadence is going to dramatically speed up in the next decade or so.
Docker Inc. is the poster child of the cathedral.
I find Russell's assumption that machines will learn good behavior from humans to be incredibly naive. History is a nightmare from which we cannot escape, as Joyce said. A robot exposed to news and general human behavior today would learn to lie and kill just as well as it ties knots. I hope he has a better plan than that.
That is a completely different strategy than "if we wait long enough, it's bound to work". Waiting is worthless, no matter how long you wait.
I am learning this as part of academics, but I belive Map reduce was introduced for handling google page rank and it seemed to handle it well, so SHOULD I SAY "USE HADOOP BUT IN A SENSIBLE WAY WHERE IT REALLY HELPS" or is it like never use it ?
> Insufficient training data causes variance, not bias

Key point.

If one were to compare the two high-interest groups, a small sample for one group would be reflected in a large confidence interval around its mean, a greater overlap in the CIs of both group means, and less confidence that a real difference exists.
They may have been available for sale but people probably did not know about them. That itself takes most of the time. People need to learn about the product and understand how it can be used.
Not all federal loans allow income-based repayment. For instance, parent PLUS loans aren't eligible, nor are other loans made to or through parents. Moreover, there are tons & tons of private loans (often with high interest rates) pushed at these places, and none of those need to offer income-based repayment.
No data except to postulate that if FICO scores had no correlation to default rates then the entire credit industry would fail.

What is inaccurate about your FICO score? Maybe it results in false negatives (meaning your score is low when it should be high), but if the opposite was true across the board (bad borrowers getting high scores) then the credit industry would collapse.
So what should cathedrals do? Rely on the unpredictive bazaar?

They're [Kubernetes, Mesos, etc] not so great for a small team [or individuals] who are just trying to deploy some software

The industry consists not only of small teams and individuals, we (by this I mean all IT) also use services provided by cathedrals (AWS) which have to have something stable to rely on
I was also born 40 years ago. People were routinely walking on the moon before we were born. Nobody has done so since. 50 years ago, NASA's baseline plan called for a permanent settlement on the moon by 1978, and a permanent settlement on Mars by 1986. That was the working assumption -- not of a few wild-eyed futurists, but of tens of thousands of ordinary bureaucrats -- during the ramp-up of the Apollo program.

So yes, that future has been very, very slow to arrive.

And yes, we're all carrying gigaflops computers around, which is massively cool but also, 40 years ago, somewhat expected.[1]

My feeling is that in the last 10 years -- and particularly in the last 5, as the AI winter has decisively ended and the private spaceflight reusability efforts have ramped up -- things have genuinely been accelerating. But prior to that, the 70s, 80s, and 90s were relatively stalled decades, compared to the much more fundamental breakthroughs of the three decades before.

Furthermore, ethics is way too cultural and subjective to be taught. Even if we could all agree on macro-rules, eg. hurting peoples is bad whatever hurt they infliged, the more specifics (and micro) we become, the more divergences will arise. And as everythng, our perception of what is "ethics" will evolve.
People on the bazaar who just want to deploy a CRUD web app you mentioned shouldn't be getting into the containers/orchestration in the first place. Just go for some PaaS or rent a server or two, write shell or python scripts to set them up and save yourself all the hassle.

I'm curious: is there a ready-to-use set of tests for a layout engine that checks conformance with the specs? Something that you could, without much effort, run against a toy layout engine you'd write?

I know Webkit/Blink have humongous test suites, but these probably aren't easy to adapt to a toy layout engine.

I'm not sure I see the value in this article's protracted digression into a bestiary of philosophers. There is, though, much truth in the statement that to conceive of ourselves as detached from history is to conceive of ourselves inaccurately.

Back when I did CS 101 this was our final project; the teacher made the HTML-parser, and we students did the renderer and UI.

The HTML-parser is probably the part it makes sense to do first.

What language and platform do you plan to use? I think a modern OO-language will be helpful.
You could have used std::list iterators instead of raw pointers to a node in the map to implement that.
Yep. In my experience, external factors such as smiling, laughing, joking and being active are completely disconnected from and have no bearing on someones internal emotional state when depressed.

That is, in my personal experience and in my experience knowing others who have suffered from depression, you can feel completely down and hopeless and emotionally distraught without this being visible to those around you, who simply see you being active, acting happy, smiling, joking and so on. These things do not mean that you aren't depressed. The thing that makes depression what it is, is the feeling of hopelessness and/or emptiness even when these other things are present and even when there's seemingly no reason for it.

Many depressed people get very good at bottling up and hiding their emotions.
They are saying the majority (95%) of the logistics and complexity occurs before the package arrives at the local distribution center (local Fed Ex, UPS, Post Office).

You are correct though, it is strange that they intertwine that in; it just makes it confusing. "These two unrelated things have similar percentages so lets make that point."
To my knowledge, more sophisticated lenders will let through loans that have poor model scores to fill in that data for training future models.

Well, here's where things get tricky, because it's difficult to get someone to understand something they don't notice.

This is typically what is meant by the term "white privilege". What is actually meant is that someone has a different set of experiences, so they are comparatively blind to experiences that are common to people of other races. This is a very common phenomenon. Most people when they are growing up think that their experiences are universal. That the way their family works is the way everyone else's works, and so on. It's only when they get older that they realize that maybe their experiences have been abnormal, and also that experiences different from one's own are possible, perhaps even commonplace (such as growing up with divorced parents, growing up poor vs. rich, etc.) This is extremely true when it comes to race, because until recently the experiences of people of color have often not been very well publicized. But they absolutely do. If you're black, or brown, or a muslim, your experiences in the developed world are going to be different from those of a white non-muslim. You're going to get stopped for "random" searches when flying more often. You're going to be stopped by the police while driving more often. Your interactions with police will be more tense and less cordial. And so on and so on.

These are just facts. In the US whites actually use illegal drugs at a slightly higher rate than blacks. But blacks are stopped more often on suspicion of drug activity, they are prosecuted more often, and they receive much harsher sentences. That's why despite the lower rate of drug use and the lower population, the number of blacks in prison for drug offenses is vastly higher than for whites. If you're white, drugs might as well be legal, as long as you're not transporting kilos of them around. If you're black, you are more than ten times as likely to be incarcerated for drug use than if you're white, much more. That's systemic racism and injustice, and that's just one tiny example.

There was a study where job applicants sent in resumes. The names on the resumes were changed, some had "black sounding" names, some had "white sounding" names. The resumes with the white names had a much higher rate of callbacks than those with the black names.

There are many, many more examples. To pull one from the headlines. Consider the examples of two different athletes: Ryan Lochte and Colin Kaepernick. Ryan Lochte committed a crime, and the general sentiment among many is "boys will be boys" (despite him being over 30). Kaepernick exercised his 1st amendment rights to make a statement against police brutality, and he has received a torrent of death threats and insults, including many using the n-word. If that doesn't tell you that racism is alive and well in the western world, then I don't know what to tell you.

Yes, we've made progress on racism. Yes, being an open, avowed racist often results in swift negative consequences. But that does not define the boundaries of the problem of racism, there is still a lot of very difficult work to be done, our world is far, far removed from one where racism is no longer an issue.
