Level comparison across companies is useless. People who were first-level managers at Microsoft didn't even have manager in their title (it was lead, but that's changed recently). Then at a second-level manager, you would get manager in your title. Most other companies will have manager in your title when you're first-level managers. The job was the same, the just called it different things. I've talked to many people who worked both at Amazon and Microsoft and we've learned how to calibrate to say what level at Microsoft = what level at Amazon, but it's not a clean split.

Also, some smaller tech companies will inflate titles to try to compete for talent. Like I met someone who's a VP of engineering, they have a total team size of 2. That's not the same as a VP at Facebook. If that guy got an offer for one level lower, that would be a huge step up.
I'll rephrase, it's way better accomplished with UDP without sacrificing security in the ways I list.

BQ is getting awesome and is a legit option for many many workloads that wouldn't have made sense for the cloud a year ago. For example, if I was contemplating a Netezza or Teradata environment for an EDW, I'd slap myself [hopefully before writing the check].
There are basically three tiers of startup infrastructure needs, dependent business model. Your decision process should be driven by which one you are operating in.

(1) Consumer ad-supported. Pinterest, Instagram, Buzzfeed, etc.

Your CPM is going to be pretty low, so you probably want to run your own infra -- it's all gonna come down to the margins. Dropbox notably transitioned to running their own infra after years on AWS.

(2) Freemium software with heavy data ingestion needs, eg enterprise messaging or CRM. Slack, Streak, etc.

You have pretty high value per customer, but you still have a ton of data streaming in to your system all the time. Probably use a public cloud provider, but monitor your bill somewhat carefully lest it get out of control.

(3) Typical B2B workflow SaaS, or very high CPM consumer site. Airbnb, Zenefits, Gusto, etc.

You store a relatively low amount of data, on the order of megabytes per customer if not less. Use public cloud infra and make it widely available. Eliminate "how much will this increase our AWS bill" from discussions about eg event sourcing, proposed ML experiments, etc.

It's a proof of concept, not to be used in real life for anything. It would be too expensive. Also, it's not a refined product, just an attempt to see if neural networks can do better compression.

Try it on mobile. Doubly worse on an iPhone 4s screen when you have the top and bottom fifths covered with an ad.

I also agree the warnings were apt but the accompanying advice didn't really address the issue well. I deal with other people's infrastructure issues every day, startup and old business alike, and rapid adoption isn't the problem the article makes it out to be. My experience is that you can barely get most people to apply a simple critical update to a storage device much less major infrastructure changes without the person getting an official guarantee from every vendor in their infrastructure that the change won't disrupt their workflow.

And the advice on cloud jail just seems premature for most start ups. It's talking about the owners answering to boards when it seems unlikely to me that most people needing this advice would even be so far along as to have a board to answer to. The advice of "don't put all your eggs in one basket" is great, but that second basket costs money. If anything, I'd imagine a board concerned about costs would want to consolidate costs not spend more. Boards tend to make irrationally fiscally conservative choices.
I use a safety razor regularly.

First, they are not TSA friendly. You cannot put them in carryon luggage.

Second, I get the best results when using an associated shaving brush and shaving soap. Shaving gels and foam don't really do it for me anymore.

However, if you do want to get a few more shaves out of a 10 cent razor, you can always strop them on an old pair of jeans.

If Google buys it, they'll probably just buy it to squat it, rather than use it. They're probably butthurt they lost out on the .blog gTLD. Google wanted to make it a completely walled garden TLD only for Blogger users. And Google cost us the option of having a .dev gTLD, that's for Google's use only.

"Let's not forget, the Californian goliath had tried to bag .blog, which it intended to pair with its Blogger service so that the only way to get a .blog domain would be to use Blogger."

One good point this article makes is that despite popular opinion, just because someone is suing a bank doesn't mean that the bank actually did anything wrong.

Any party that's suing a bank will act the part of the unsophisticated victim, even if they knew exactly what they were getting into.

If a salesman offers you a bet that Citi shares will go up, and you take the bet, and Citi shares go up, and you don't get any money, and you ask him what happened, and he shrugs and says "derivatives are complicated, man" -- you should probably sue him. But if a salesman offers you a bet that Citi shares will go up, and you take the bet, and Citi shares lose 96 percent of their value, it looks a little funny to go to court and say "well we didn't understand the structural nuances of the bet." The nuances are not your problem.

Crane v1.0.5 release
https://github.com/Dataman-Cloud/crane/releases/tag/v1.0.5

README： https://github.com/Dataman-Cloud/crane/blob/master/release/v1.0.5/README.md

closed issue list：https://github.com/Dataman-Cloud/crane/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed

Crane, maintained by dataman-cloud, is a docker control panel based on latest docker release. Besides swarm features, Crane implements some badly needed functionalities by enterprise user, such as private registries authentation, ACL and application DAB(distributed application bundle) sharing. The smart fuzzy search function give user quickly access to the desired page. Crane can help storing registry auth pair, from where you can choose a predefined registry auth pair when deploying a DAB, without the need to docker login when access private image. Crane can also help sharing your private images with your coworkers easily.
To expand on this, there would be three advantages, but none have to do with CA trust:
(1) Clients implementations may be slightly simpler, since they have to handle one less protocol.
(2) The initial DNS would be removed altogether as a possible source of error, rather than a detectable possible source of error.
(3) Some marginal additional privacy. But reverse DNS means not really.

The problem with this is you don't know if your business will be popular or not. If it isn't and you spend money on well thought out infrastructure well you wasted time and money. If your product is successful then you can buy infrastructure later. Also from a business perspective you don't want PP&E on your balance sheet. That is why you will see so many creative leasing schemes which fsba cracked down on.
> If `function2` needs to log something, then it should have a type signature which reflects that.

Yes if you value referential transparency.

No if you value encapsulation.

The fact that `function2` is logging stuff is an implementation detail that callers shouldn't care about. They should certainly not be forced to pass that function a logger.

What if that function decides that on top of logging, it wants to store stuff in a database. Should all callers suddenly find some kind of database to pass to that function too?

I am mostly replying to your initial comment of

>Or is that too un-sensational an explanation for modern physics?

which has the frankly pretentious air of "I see an easy explanation you don't, why didn't you see it?"

This is a common phenomenon where someone reads a pop sci article and decides they know better than experts in the field. So I asked a couple basic questions to see whether you have any real idea what you're commenting on, or whether you're stringing together concepts you have no real understanding of and then being snide.

What is an insulator, and what is a conductor? What are the quantum mechanical properties of a material the determine whether it is one or the other, or potentially some sort of mixture? How would or could a magnetic field influence conductance of a material?

How does a material transition from a conductor to an insulator, and how does on recognize that transition?

For that matter, what are the known laws of magnetic interaction that one would have in mind when trying to model such an interaction?

Or have your comments had no real content?

Expecting 2 years of research by around 20 of the best DNN researchers on the planet to be compressed into a StackOverflow answer before it has been done seems a fairly large amount to expect.

Not a huge fan of the negativity on StackOverflow, but until August 2016 (when the paper this was based on was published - or maybe 2015, with DRAW[2]) people actively working in this area didn't think it was possible.

Also, the single answer there certainly didn't say anything like it was a stupid idea. I don't think the author of that answer knew much about autoencoders.

Also^2, your question isn't really anything like what this addresses. Your question concentrates on the idea of compressing a large set of images, and sharing some kind of representation.

That certainly is possible without using a ML approach. And yes, autoencoders have been around for a long time.

But hoverboards are a great idea, too.

Developer Interviews Are Broken, and You Can't Fix It
Based on my research, prompted by finding the machine filled with mold/fungus, yes. It's a container filled with moisture, locked behind a water tight seal, with layers of soap; more or less the perfect conditions for mold. It's a prevalent enough problem that there were rumblings of a class action; though it's America, so take that with a grain of salt.

I'm not sure if there's another variable that would lead to different experiences. Like you say perhaps it's dependent on water. Water in my area is very hard. Perhaps it depends on soap. Some detergents contain borax which is particularly good at killing mold in this situation. Maybe some machines are better at draining and/or airing out when not in-use. Frequent use of bleach may help.

The previous owners of the machines were not ... the best of tenants. Perhaps they did something else to compound the issue. Excessive soap is an additional culprit.

Codefresh Announces $7M Funding – Codefresh
I'd bet lots of money that this is exactly the sort of PR puff piece Paul Graham describes [0], where a PR firm writes a pseudo-advice column that drops Kentik's and Avi Freedman's names a lot. Bland, generic infrastructure advice phrased in an insidery tone that leaves lots of Google trail for the company that paid for this sponsored advertising. Don't waste your time, it's nothing you can't figure out on your own.

Which is why... (paraphrased) Freedman advises startups to watch the following indicators as a measure of whether they may be approaching the danger zone:

- When always-on / constantly-growing workloads cross the $100,000/mo. mark, you may hit the danger zone sooner than you think.

- Keep # of lockin services in check.

- Monitor for performance and look for cases where someone else's cloud starts to cause issues.

This definitely matches infrastructure progression I've seen too!

Good points.

On the cloud lock-in, it is important to keep in mind that the companies offering that want to lock you in. The article mentions but I think it needs to be emphasized. They are not passive agents but more like really sophisticad drug dealers who study addiction and know how to profit from it. "Hey, psst look you get a 6 month free trial, just give this a try it costs nothing...".

But cloud providers started to compete with each other harder. As part of that many are lowering costs and open sourcing cloud orchestration tools which 10 years ago was the super secret sauce. Article covers this a bit as well and I noticed it too. Running your own cloud on bare metal is becoming more viable. AWS might be good today, but Google wants your business as well, and Kubernetes and some bare metal provider might save serious money in the future.

As for HN driven development, yeah I have seen a couple projects ruined switching from Python to Go (during last few years there was a story like that every week on HN). It wasn't that Go was bad, it is just that it destabilized an existing product without delivering enough benefits.

> One key emerging type of tool Freedman advises looking into implementing is a ‘distributed tracing’ system, often modeled after Google’s “Dapper” system.

The secret sauce for me is using Erlang (Elixir works as well). Sometimes it feels like cheating as in "this shouldn't be that easy": distributed tracing, hotpatching to add a log statement while everything is up running, or restarting small parts of the service. Imagine say C++ being able to confidently run gdb on a process, kill a thread, reload new code, let the thread restart without fear of causing some memory corrupt or leaving a lock acquired. Like the article said, you can do that with many tools, but having it be solid, and built it is a huge advantage. Money-wise it just means having less people and less ops pain. Because if there is one thing that's right up there with infrastructure costs, it's people's time.
I often watch "Cops" and shows like that. What always gets me is when they pull over cars coming from a "known drug house", then arrest the passengers.

If they know it's a drug house, then why not shut it down instead of arresting an endless stream of customers?

It just feeds my inner (morbidly obese) cynic. I have a sneaking suspicion that these drug laws are about more than preventing harm.
That first statement is hard to agree with because it takes an all-or-nothing stance in a broad manner (must + little use). Most people will disagree because there is probably a "I don't 100% agree" reaction to it. You'd probably get the same reaction going in the opposite direction.

In our society everyone must work together to succeed. It is of little use to try and effect change alone as one person cannot make a difference in politics or work.

Meanwhile, the other two statements are much more direct on the stance being questioned. The examples are the only open ended part as interpretations can differ between people, but they are still clear enough to get the intended meaning across.

Not all cultures are the same. The article assumes a universal culture and values of "buyer beware" in which personal assurances, friendship, and honor, all mean nothing at all whatsoever.

This is not how most of the world sees things.

In the eyes of those who were assured of sure things, the brutal dismemberment and evisceration of the scammers, their families, and their pets, is justified, reasonable, and pretty certain to happen at some point, to protect one's honor.

If one wishes to do business in other cultures one should understand those cultures.

Yes. And in theory, k-nearest-neighbors is also a universal approximator. (Being a universal approximator doesn't tell you much since so many ML algos are).
Those examples seem super consequential compared to all the medical advancements that we got... I would gladly keep the medical advancements in exchange for turning off fans inside, eating more carrots, and avoiding red around bulls (or just avoiding bulls altogether; they stink).

Thankfully, humans like to try new things and then apply cause-and-effect reasoning to create good, new hypothesis (based by early citizen science evidence). I suspect that trait has massive benefits in our evolution. I hope people don't get put off by calls for "rigorous science" and keep experimenting on their own... and that the scientific establishment latches on to good ideas to do more rigorous studies!

Mozilla plans to ban the Chinese CA WoSign due to trust violations
Right, but what will be the catalyst that stops jobs growing? And would it necessarily be uniform to all geographic areas?

The housing crisis was unique in that it impacted people across the nation. Likewise with the dotcom bust since that was all about the public markets.

What would have a similar effect today? If tech jobs are killing other jobs/industries, wouldn't that lead to a situation where the tech market is still really strong with jobs, but other areas decline (and thus housing prices may stay the same in say, the Bay Area, but decline in another impacted area)?

Just trying to extrapolate things out. Yes obviously if jobs stopped growing everywhere at once, things would crash. But what would cause that? It seems more likely that they would stop growing at different rates, and some may even grow more as a result. As such, we might see more weird fluctuations in the markets, but that isn't a popping event per se.

I found one easy way is to just ask the person using the technology why they are using it. As long as they understand the trade-off and understand how it works, that's fine. If they say because they've seen stories on HN or at latest meetup someone mentioned, or it's "async so therefore faster", then be worried.

Salesforce Calls Microsoft LinkedIn Acquisition Anticompetitive
Very little until the SolarCity facility comes online, and the battery storage at the Port Allen solar array has been disappointing and expensive, with batteries that died unexpectedly early.

Also, Hawaii gets its electricity from oil and gas shipped in by tanker and residents pay $.30/kWh; the utility there managed to negotiate $.15/kWh from SolarCity, which is almost certainly below their cost of production right now; they couldn't meet the utility's original tender and reapplied several times. I'm guessing that SolarCity is betting that over the life of their 20 year (!!!) contract they can bring their costs down and eventually turn a profit. I wonder about that bet, though, given that SolarCity isn't in great financial shape.

Anyways, I'm very much in favor of subsidized and incentivized solar power; what grates on me are people who assume that there's a great deal of unrealized value in clean technologies ("new industrial revolution!"). Converting to clean technologies will destroy value because oil and gas, especially when untaxed, are cheaper and easier to exploit. But of course we must convert because, well, 400ppm.
