I tend to agree. Microsoft needed to be punished by authorities and they do better now as a result, all while behaving better.
I've used both mesosphere and Kube now (in production) and I feel I can safely comment on this.

Kube is winning for the same reason React/Redux (and now Mobx) is winning and why Rails was winning at the time. Community.

The community for Kube is awesome and the work people are doing in the field is being noticed all over the place.

I've seen people (myself included) that moved production clusters from mesos to Kube just because the activity of the development and how secure they feel with the community and the project going forward.

React and Rails (at the time) had the same sort of pull towards the community and why a lot of people on-boarded.

Golang is most likely a factor here too. I feel most people find Golang friendlier than Scala/Java. That's why Kube has many more contributors, the hurdle for contributing is easier to jump

Innovation is what makes this industry so exciting to be a part of. I joined the tech world, via Holberton School[1] just a mere nine months ago, and already so much has changed. It makes it challenging to keep up, but that's the fun part.

The future of technology is held in the hands of open source projects.

First of all, the story doesn't mention anything about the size of the deal.

Second of all, the company is selling after ~2 years. The average employee has probably been there for less than 1 year. Excluding the common stock of the founders (since they are the ones who made the decision to sell), employee common stock grants and common stock options are all about ensuring employees get a share of blockbuster company results, like IPOs or 8/9 figure acquisitions.

In the case of smaller acquisitions (of which this might have been or might not have been), stock options are probably not worth very much because the company hasn't grown that much. Nobody is at fault, nobody got screwed, its just how stock works. That is why employees are paid salaries. This is why employees often get generous retention offers from the acquiring company. Nobody is being "wiped out" because that assumes there was inherent value to begin with, which there isn't.

"The locals" is an odd term. I lived in New Mexico, where some of people who are raised in Spanish speaking households trace their local ancestry back to before the founding of the US.

The Hispanics of Puerto Rico were there before the US took it over as part of the Spanish–American War.

These Hispanics are more local than the new-comer English-speaking people, no?
The focus on our current economic climate frequently seems to be on the experimental dovish policies of central banks and its implications on bubbling asset prices, yet nobody seems to be talking about how eerily close this is predicted by the Austrian Business Cycle Theory[0]. I'm confounded by why the theory is considered by mainstream economists as controversial when in instances such as the dot com and housing bubbles popping in the US it was preceeded by the Federal Reserve contracting the money supply after prolonged periods of money printing. I fully expect the next fatal economic downturn to follow the eventual raising of interest rates, if runaway inflation doesn't occur first[1].

Displays can always be used for other purposes, as well. And, with 4K only being marginally better at certain viewing distances for its price point[0], there is plenty of time where this display can be reused. Most other components can also be reused. I bought a 24" display to set up a RPI gaming rig and now that I don't have time to play with it anymore, I may reuse this display as an "RPI Home Digital Assistant" (future project which I'll probably never get around to implementing).

My only concern is power expenditure - I have minimal knowledge of kWh price of using such a display.

But all in all, some people really like these DIY projects - and others don't. Nothing wrong with that!

I don't disagree with your general point, which from what I understand is that the US has had, and still has, some nasty problems with racism.

But I have to take issue with this statement:

>racism germinated and produced toxic effects in the US to a greater degree than it did in other countries.

The two countries that you mentioned, Belgium and Japan, have absolutely horrific history of violent occupation/repression of other ethnic/racial groups, anchored in no small part by racist ideology. I'll throw in Germany as well, but I think just about any country/culture with much of a history will have some examples of the abysmal treatment of some minority group.

I dispute your view, if I understand it, that the US has a worse history or track record with racism. I'd say by in large, human history has a pretty poor track record in this respect.
Hey, I remember WAP!

Fortunately their service is now a commodity (as Jobs told them when they demoed for him, they are simply a feature). I have always preferred Drobox just because it seemed the simplest (and they supported Linux). But switching just takes a short time to copy my files to one of their competitors.

I wonder why they chose to gratuitously be assholes?

Here's what Guido wrote about some of the issues that have been raised here:

"""

I've been asked about this. Here's my opinion on the letter of the law in 3.6:

- keyword args are ordered

- the namespace passed to a metaclass is ordered by definition order

- ditto for the class __dict__

A compliant implementation may ensure the above three requirements
either by making all dicts ordered, or by providing a custom dict
subclass (e.g. OrderedDict) in those three cases.

I'd like to handwave on the ordering of all other dicts. Yes, in
CPython 3.6 and in PyPy they are all ordered, but it's an
implementation detail. I don't want to force all other
implementations to follow suit. I also don't want too many people
start depending on this, since their code will break in 3.5. (Code
that needs to depend on the ordering of keyword args or class
attributes should be relatively uncommon; but people will start to
depend on the ordering of all dicts all too easily. I want to remind
them that they are taking a risk, and their code won't be backwards
compatible.)

Which does not directly affect current discourse, being removed by multiple generations from those alive today.

> * talk about racist policies against the Irish and sentiments against Catholics throughout the country even just prior to JFK's election in 1960

Sure, but then you're bringing religion into the mix. That seems unwise when trying to make a specific point that to that point has not included religion. It will just muddy the waters.

> * talk about racist views and policies towards interracial marriage in the South and Southwest

Also applicable, but less well known.

The point isn't to correctly spread the blame for bad behavior around equally, it was to explain why Americans have thin skin regarding race issues. The South is a valid example of this,and is the common example because it is so well known and recent. That may strike you as unfair, but fairness wasn't the point, communication was.

At least regarding the Columbia and its tributaries, British Columbia is much further upstream away from the ocean, so the salmon impacts of building dams there are less. At least that's my understanding. Also, I expect their dams were built later and thus with fish ladders. (Grand Coulee has no fish ladders whatsoever, being built mostly in the 1930's.)

It's not just about the salmon, although I believe they're worth considering in and of themselves. It's also about the cultures and practices, the foods, etc., that have diminished since the dams interfered with the salmon run. Fish ladders are vastly better than nothing, but even then the rates of passage are significantly less than on an undammed river.

As far as generating mix, it really depends where you live. East of the Cascades there's plenty of wind, plus the Columbia and Snake rivers for hydroelectric. Not to mention a bit of nuclear. Pretty cool map here: http://www.eia.gov/state/?sid=WA#tabs-1

Increasing density will increase congestion and overburden infrastructure? That is what you get when you build a place on the premise that everyone owns a private car and should drive everywhere. Density will achieve the opposite in the long-term. In dense, mixed-use places people have the option to go places without driving. The congestion may never leave, but for the people happily walking to their destinations, it won't matter. Picture New York or Tokyo - horrible places to drive, but for most people it doesn't matter because they aren't driving. Walking as a mode of transportation requires practically nothing in the way of infrastructure spending compared to that required for driving. Furthermore, the per-taxpayer-served cost of a street decreases as density increases. If the current residents want to park for free on the street next to their large home, and drive everywhere, and have free parking at all of their destinations, that's great for them, but many people would place more importance on ensuring everyone has access to affordable housing.
I believe either VISA or MasterCard - likely both - have rules against charging any additional fees when paying with their cards as a merchant, with the implicit threat of them pulling their services and leaving you unable to process cards if you don't follow said rules.

The typical workaround, which isn't against their rules, is to offer a discount for paying in cash - I can't recall the last gas station I saw that didn't do this (for gas at least), and a number of restaurants also offer cash discounts.

I wouldn't mind using my debit card more often if it had the same type of insurance against fraud as my credit cards.

It all depends on the underlying technology. Yes, an indirection costs more. But in the same time, the first level array can be much smaller and it even can be that both arrays together are smaller than the old array before, because it had to had gaps. The new compact array does not need to have gaps.

It of course depends on many factors, like how is the filling factor.

But, preserving memory can potentially also preserve transfers between processor and main memory. In old processors, pure clock cycles and the complexity of the opcodes where the main factor when it came to speed. Today, the complexity of opcodes (for example indirection) are less and less interesting. The amount of cache misses and how much memory must be transferred between processor and memory chips are deciding.

It's cool how it's presented so openly, like a scientific project.
My thinking:

1) If they were doing well and got a $30m buyout offer, they'd probably have gone out to raise more money for a much higher valuation. Money is cheap, and if they have an offer in that range, a VC would probably cut them a check within an hour.

2) Buyouts generally benefit founders & investors, and common stock holders don't get much. They'll get a retention bonus or something depending on how important they are deemed, but other than that, unlikely that they'll walk away with what their on-paper ownership seemed to be worth.

I'm fairly jaded on this mostly from having watched friends get giddy about their company being acquired, then getting their paperwork and realizing that their stock is now worth $0, and if they want their $100k bonus, it's distributed in a back-loaded earn-out over 4 years (sometimes with conditions that they hit certain targets that aren't realistic). I've seen it happen (again, to friends/acquaintances) in most price points (~$5m, ~$50m and ~$100m), unfortunately.

Granted it's anecdotal, so I could be very wrong! But in general I think common shareholders are wiped out.

Yeah, this is not a dict that has ordered keys. It's a dict that has that side effect.

I can't think of any reason why a set's members, or a dict's keys (which are just set members with associated values, conceptually) should be unordered. Yes, set membership is traditionally unordered, but we have ordered sets and dicts, so they must be desirable, and they're certainly coherent.

I just hope that if sets and dicts become ordered by spec, that some day someone doesn't feel compelled to implement unordered versions.
You provide a good counterpoint, but I think slavery was nowhere near an asset that the CIA is and has been to the United States (whether this has been a good thing for humanity and human rights as a whole is another question).

The CIA has overthrown and installed numerous governments. It has forced ideologies and laws upon people all across the world. It has turned many countries into mere puppets for decades at a time. [1]

Again, the CIA is by no means a humanitarian organization. It has overlooked countless basic human rights to achieve its goals. It has unarguably shaped the course of the history since at least the 1950s, and continues to do so. But we're not going to have a civil war over the CIA.

As far as I know, DropBox is the only service that does delta block uploads correctly and switches to LAN transfer when two synced computers are in the same network.

I know it's CS 101, but neither Google Drive, iCloud, or OneDrive do this.

Not to mention the other services have bizarre naming limits (e.g., dotfiles are forbidden on OneDrive).

Also, DropBox supports Linux officially.
>I've seen people (myself included) that moved production clusters from mesos to Kube

Sorry I am new to this. I saw a presentation where someone was running Kubernetes on DC/OS . Why are people doing that if they can just run pure kubernetes.
I've used Dropbox for quite some years because they were (one of) the first and rock-solid. Especially the latter is very important for a service like this.

Oh, and they always supported the big three OSes.

These last two features makes them stand out against the myriad of alternatives. (Especially the offerings from Apple, Google and Microsoft are laughably bad.)

Dropbox is more expensive but not that more expensive given that it just works.

That said, I switched a couple of months ago to Seafile (the German branch) and it has worked almost as good as Dropbox.

The reasons for switching were: not based in the US, supports more OSes, Rice, cheaper.

Some features like selective syncing do not work as well but others like multiple libraries are a solid addition.

I have run into a Git repo issue on Seafile that I never had on Dropbox and the client on Windows could not sync some files due to the filenames (luckily those could be renamed).
