In theory users could pay a transaction fee denominated in a commodity. Once mined the miner can convert to another asset type. But say you're saving in terms of kegs of beer and can't pay a fraction of a keg - you could keep an energy fund so you can pay a highly granular transaction fee. Now, if the miner doesn't think the certificate is valid or reputable it won't be included.

I wish for something like a closed loop cycle: Solar energy into electrolysis to fuel a sabatier process and feed the resulting methane into a syngas-to-gasoline process should be the standard for fuel production in the future. It's energetically expensive, but we'll never run out of water and carbon dioxide.
Cool. Thanks. Containers seem overkill, but compute engine seems like it would work.

FWIW "Compute Engine" makes it seem like some API for machine learning or big data processing. I would not have guessed it was Google's version of EC2.
I would use caution throwing around ultimatums. I'm sure pocket-sized digital supercomputers or a global near-instant communications network didn't seem likely within the lifetime of people born in the Great Depression, but here we are.

Games can be really complex 'hard-tech', but compare Elite Dangerous's small+ iterative to Star Citizen's big+all-at-once approaches.

LOL - of course many of you just seem to want to rebuke me. Makes sense, given today's culture. But, you're just adding to the problem.

Most current problems in our society stem from people getting more satisfaction out of pushing web buttons than doing real things out in the real world.

I imagine if every item in the heap is a queue itself, you could use peek mut to get an item off the current max queue. After the modification, the former max element is sifted down to account for it's (probably) changed key.

Introducing G Suite
I don't use VIM a lot, mostly when committing stuff in git, so I'm quite naive about it.

How would you get out of insert mode by writing jk? Or, how would you write jk in insert mode without exiting?
FWIW hosting your own mirror is possible today. It just requires a bit of work to match the crates.io format and specify it via .cargo/config (http://doc.crates.io/config.html). You can specify the index url as a "file://" and point it anywhere you like.

Definitely like this new approach though.
I think so. It's pretty unrealistic for one billion people to use GCP directly.
Sort of. I run the bloated Web, movies, IDE's, servers, and VM's on a Core Duo with 2 cores under 2GHz done on 65nm. I'd loose some single-threaded performance probably with an OpenSPARC T2 but otherwise it should handle my modern workload. Doesn't quite feel ancient. ;)

The cool thing about open-source CPU's is one can always improve on them to, say, have an extra dozen cores on more recent nodes. Like Oracle does but probably less impressive with less money.

I read it as that too. However, it's not irrelevant, it's orthogonal. If someone at home did something nasty, they should be held accountable. That said, Russia engaging in the act of hacking and leaking the data is a major problem in its own right. I agree that we shouldn't let that excuse the actions of Americans, at the same time.
Exactly what I came to comment, thanks.
"OMG there is a Dragonair! Do you see it?" "Na, I'm not on your server.."

Blizzard scaled using appropriate technologies for its time. i.e. sharding basted on "Realm" and enforcing active player limits. This scaling mechanism was used by every MMO I knew about until EVE.

EVE pioneered the modern MMO. It is no longer acceptable for an MMO to be sharded by server. Even WoW has been aggressively trying to scale its architecture and infra such that it can re-connect these shards into more cohesive worlds. With the most credit to them, they have a lot of technical debt in this regard, but the fact that some servers are labeled "full" with wait queues to join, implies that they still don't have the technology to scale let alone connect all their servers[0].

[0] Note, there are also other reasons (i.e. in-game economical and political reasons) why they are not aggressively connecting more shards.
> Frankly I'm not sure it is any better than regular products.

Care to elaborate?

True, but this does not explain or validate your previous statement. You are saying: "A has these pros and this con, B has the same con but none of the pros, hence A and B are the same". This sounds like a poor argument to me.

I believe that you are being downvoted because your last two comments are poorly articulated.
But why not just write JS/HTML5 code which inherently works on web, and use something like Electron to make it work on desktop too?

That would mean that employers need to hire those who understand JS / HTML to build applications.

Stating that some language is better than another isn't really a good argument, most of it has to do with domain specific knowledge being leveraged to enter another market.
Not exactly a closed loop - about 30-50% of the carbon dioxide we release is absorbed into the ocean[1]. So this process might actually decrease atmospheric CO2 levels, but ocean acidification will continue to increase.

It's like the DJIA hitting 10000 or 15000 or whatever. Wooooo we did it people!!!

I wish it was something like a CO₂ meter version of the Y2K bug.

There are interesting side effects, like how as we burn more fossil fuels, we push the frontier where radiocarbon dating is accurate further into the past. But yeah, you're educated, you should know what the effects of increased CO₂ are.

C#/XAML probably works much better on the desktop than Electron. Each has it's pros and cons.
Also, C# is a much better language than js.
> Neural networks are good at adaptation, but useless at forming concepts about how the data is structured. For example: in video we do motion compensation, because we know video captures motion since objects move in physical reality. A neural network would have to do the same in order to get the same compression levels.

Neural networks know that objects move. See for example https://arxiv.org/abs/1511.05440 http://web.mit.edu/vondrick/tinyvideo/
I don't think it makes sense to say that ringing is (necessarily) an effect of high-pass, low-pass, or band-pass filters. Any second-order system (that is undamped) could exhibit ringing. If I concatenate a low-pass filter with one of these ringing filters, I could get a ringing and low-pass filter
I've just read about this and there are a lot of people saying they had significant downtime during upgrades ([1] one such story, but there were quite a few on stackoverflow etc).

I'm going to run some tests myself to see how well it works on my existing data (only 30GB at the moment, but it was only 20GB a month ago and is growing fairly rapidly).

I'm not so sure we do disagree :)

At the risk of splitting hairs... there are costs associated with finding developers who have this education and/or fostering a company culture where security best practices are important.

If software companies were seriously punished for compromising PII, then I imagine we'd see a change.
Plants are able to remove about 10ppm per year. If we stopped emitting, and starting burying plants in the ground it could be done without a huge problem.

i.e. the hard part is not removing the CO2, the hard part is not adding to it.

One other thing. Just because I own fewer resources than someone else, doesn't mean that I "lose". I mean, you can arbitrarily define it that way, but in practice, I only need enough resources to sustain a certain quality of life. So, while universe may be finite wrt resources in theory, the actual number is so big that it may well be treated as infinite for all practical purposes, provided that we don't have unbounded population growth.
I think there is already a patch for Postgres 10 that runs the vacuum on insert only tables. While not completely solving the problem, that will be helpful.

> I don't see ever going away from using vacuum to maintain the visibility map

I don't think that's that unlikely to change. There's two major avenues: Write it during hot-pruning (which is done on page accesses), and perform a "lower impact" vacuum on insert-only tables more regularly

> but hopefully the changes in 9.6 will make it a non-issue on large tables.

You mean the freeze map? That doesn't really change the picture for regular vacuums, it changes how bad anti-wraparound vacuums are. The impact of the table vacuum itself is most of the time not that bad these days (due to the visibility map), what's annoying is usually the corresponding index scans. They have to scan the whole index, which is quite expensive.

That sounds like an interesting experiment. My parents provided neither money, nor knowledge on social structures.

Personally, I'd take the money. I can learn social structures, I can't "learn" a giant pile of bootstrap money.
It seems especially geared towards projects that have existing Silverlight codebases to convert to HTML5 applications.

I could also see a case made that XAML has an arguably much cleaner layout system and styling system than HTML, so some developers may prefer it to HTML.

They don't mention the number of arrests or lives of casual marijuana smokers destroyed for no reason before and after the law was passed -- if it saved a single person from having a criminal record, being locked in a cage, or having their life destroyed then I'd say it's a pretty huge win.

The Cato report just shows that we don't have to give anything up in order to get that big win -- it's free with no downside.
Thanks for the suggestions, I didn't think about flipping the text for that half of the chart but that's a good idea. I'm not sure about the blank label but I'll look into that.
Yes, this is obviously a problem. I think holding it during a trial could be reasonable, but the burden of guilt should not be "guilty until proven innocent"
trees sound plenty viable. maybe it should be called tree planting instead.
Sure, i'd agree it's unjust in some of the current implementation (there are something like 800+ federal statutes that have some form of asset forfeiture, so you'd need to be more specific which you think are unjust)

While i think, policy wise, it's as dumb as the next guy, I'm just pointing out this is being painted with too broad a brush from a constitutional standpoint
I don't know why this is not on the agenda.

People are instead wasting money on crazy stuff like compressing CO2 into projectile like cans and dumping them into the ocean. Or my favourite, stopping the sheep from NZ from farting!!
Will it, though? I feel like we're in the part of history right now where - when it comes to computers anyway - we're going with what's cool rather than what works. I'd say in general touchscreens have continued to be an utter failure as a general-purpose input device, and that's why we only see it on toy devices. Anything where what you type matters still uses some kind of mechanical feedback.

Maybe with haptic feedback that'll change, but for now any attempt to move mechanical keys to touch-screens are, for me, a net negative just because of the basic facts of reality.
I wish there getting started showed a little code sample instead of a giant horrible screenshot with text everywhere.

The terrestrial biosphere makes a terrible place to store carbon, as you really can't store that much of it, and eventually it has a tendency to burn and release it all back. If you wanted to grow a bunch of forests/crops, and then bury them and grow new stuff I guess that might work. But not as well as pumping new CO₂ underground or into the deep ocean (below the carbon compensation depth, where it will dissolve existing carbonates and buffer the ocean).

Also forests make the Earth's surface darker, thus decreasing albedo and potentially increasing global warming.
So if you rob a bunch of banks, but launder the money somehow.. it should be untouchable? Serial numbers don't match up with the robbed ones, and they weren't caught while robbing.. so good to go?
I edited my comment to say title and post. After reading a bit more thoroughly I realized he doesn't blindly use the graph data. But that title on the post is sure misleading!

Is not about doing it right or wrong. Is about the automation that is reused cross-project and the fact that a lot of things that used to require a sysadmin now we automated its job away. If developers implement it correctly or poorly is a different issue.

It is also not about hype (or not). I do agree that the name is posterior to the beginning of the practice, but it is the name that we have.
This of course depends on the time frame one wants to achieve, but assuming we want to remove carbon dioxide as quickly as we added it, that means we would need some operation comparable in size to the global coal, oil and gas industry extracting carbon dioxide from the atmosphere around the clock. And while I agree with you, exponential growth is in some sense hard to predict, I don't really see us starting such a gigantic endeavor unless we are absolutely forced to by the consequences of climate change.
Lobsters is another technical-oriented HN-like site.

But that is a common feature to Ada, Modula-3, Oberon derivatives, even Frama-C.

On one hand we need to still be able to do low-level stuff on "as needed" basis, but on the other hand it needs to be hard and explicit so that route is only taken as least resort and very easy to track down, even without help from tools.
I've lived in Loudoun county, VA. Your characterization of middle class in that place is totally inaccurate. There are probably less than 50 square miles on earth (if that) where a net worth of $24MM places you in the middle class.

>>Unfortunately, the prevailing social zeitgeist in the US is that not everyone deserves to be saved- you have to earn the right to be deemed worthy enough to be saved, and really if you find yourself in a position where you need to be saved then it's probably your own fault and you should bootstrap your way out of it. The puritanical mindset is very, very strong and all-prevailing in the US.

I wasn't sure how to parse this exactly but I was curious if you are actually correct here so I had a look at the General Social Survey[0]. The closest thing I could find to your post was the question of "EVERYONE SHOULD LOOK OUT FOR SELF"[1] and it looks like 67.7 percent of Americans disagree with that statement. In light of that fact, how do you defend your contrary position?
