I've a Samsung washing machine, and it usually spends about 15 minutes dicking about, spinning slowly in random directions, before actually starting to wash clothes. If it can't balance the clothes, it complains loudly. I've rarely ever heard it knocking while spinning dry.

Granted, it seems European machines are smaller and faster compared to US so maybe they spend a little more effort here, becase they would explode if misbalanced and spinning at 1400 rpm.

I am also not aware of such websites since good OO design is difficult to measure and the major impact is on quality and non-functional aspects of the system (maintainability, reusability, testability etc).

In addition to the books mentioned in above link I'd like to wholeheartedly recommend Domain Driven Design by Eric Evans. I've found the described approach very helpful in design of enterprise applications on the Java platform.
Still seems much better to buy your own gtx 1080 for $700 which you would have spent in a month playing with parameters on these instances.

Even if buying was illegal, the United States have a much stronger "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine than many other countries.

Germany for example doesn't have that, at all, as our Federal Constitutional Court has rules in exactly such a case (tax evasion lists bought by a German state and used to search someone's home).

I wouldn't be surprised if Denmark did it the same way.

> The worst case was once used to attack Java based servers

The worst case was revealed able to efficiently DOS pretty much any hashtable-based stack back in 2011[0] (practical attacks on real-world implementations, not theoretical work), following which most stacks added hash randomisation during 2012.

No, they just had to worry about weird diseases, storms destroying their boat en-route, not having any clue where they'd land or what the territory would be like, and being attacked and killed by angry natives. Oh and they were doing it all with pretty basic "science".

My first thought: "I wonder what the economics are like, re: cryptocurrency mining?"

My second thought: "I wonder if Amazon use their 'idle' capacity to mine cryptocurrency?"

With respect to my second thought, at their scale, and at the cost they'd be paying for electricity, it could quite possibly be a good hedge.
Stuff like this has happened to me. I have been wrongly ticked for no registration sticker. Ticketed numerious times for parking illegailly. I have been pulled over for driving around 1:30 p.m. on a Friday night--at least 10 times over the years, and never got a DUI. (They were basically just looking for an easy DUI.)

When I was in college, in the eighties, I can honestly say the tickets I received, I deserved. I didn't deserve being pulled over for no reason, but that's another fight. A fight I've given up on. My father's advice, which he practiced, was just drive an inconspicuous vechicle. That was the 80's. A different decade.

In the 90's, and 2000's, I can honestly state I didn't do the things I was ticketed for. They were honest error on the part of law enforcement, or just made up violations. Or, I'm senile? I'm a bit excentric, but not senile. The violations I was tickets for I luckily got out of. The officer didn't show up, or I paid $10 to contest, and won.

I've given up on honest cops. They are basically revenue collectors in my county. If you don't look like you will fight back, you will get harassed, if you live here long enough.

My only wish is they would tie fines/fees to income levels.

A rich man gets a $500 red light right turn violation; he tells the wife over dinner. It's not a big deal. A poor man gets the same ticket; it could be the last straw.

I heard Switzerland ties driving/parking violations to income. I would like to see it done here. I'm a white guy. I can't imagine what minorites have gone through. This is not the America I was so proud of growing up. We need some systemic changes.
Yes. Accidentally (!) I have a Note 7 ;-)

On a sidenote:

I think physics always trumps "consumer regulations". I do not believe in the power of law above physics, e.g. IMHO a law that declares gravity illegal would not work.

A heavy thing rotating at 1600/min is potentially lethal, you can put as much engineering in it as you want. Yes you can make it safer, but it remains potentially lethal. It's the physics of a heavy thing that rotates at 1600/min.

just make sure your gpu supports accelerated h264 in all formats you are interested in (1080@60, 4K etc), otherwise Chrome will use its own internal SLOW AS CRAP unoptimized SINGLE THREADED software decoder which cant handle 1080@60 on 4GHz Haswell.

Ontario has hydro sources and Nuclear.

At least on the hydro front, it's a difficult comparison. Quebec even more so - they have a lot of hydro opportunity.

France generates 85% from Nuclear, so effectively 'emissions free', but of course that comes with other complications.

I believe that Nuclear will be the way forward. Renewables are just not getting 'good enough fast enough' in a pragmatic way ... if we spent as much researching Nuclear I'll bet we'd have much safer choices by now. And most 'new reactors' are very safe. In particular CANDU reactors designed by Canada - and even they are decades old.

The reason Nuclear reactors are 'so expensive' to build has more to do with liability than anything. 'Insurance' is the expense - plus - there are very few entities capable of doing it and they have a 'military industrial complex' type oligarchy on it (i.e. it doesn't matter what the next-gen US fighter jet does, it will cost zillions - because he economic structure is there to make sure it costs that much).

A 'truly progressive' country should be investing in this as an option, the upside is just too good: enough Uranium to last centuries, with effectively no CO2.

A lot of the statements made in the article are rather questionable.

Applying "digital learning" to saying schedules and saying that is a data culture? If the input is bad, improve the input of the data. What is stated regarding outdated schedules highly depends on the company. Some companies might be bad, but why try to improve bad data?

It seems more that they don't know about the different schedules you usually have. One is the proforma. It tells you that there should be a weekly call on some weekday at some time. But then for practical purposes you look at the estimated times the vessel arrives.

In the article they pretend that a vessel suddenly departed a day early without anyone knowing. That's really not how that works. Cargo needs to be delivered to the terminal. You're not going to silently advance such a vessel and not be able to fill it up with cargo. Cargo which then stands at the terminal for 6-7 days and causing problems for the next call (too much cargo).

Then this one:
> We’re still pretty much the only company that tries digitalization of an end to end shipment.

What about https://www.inttra.com/ ?

That the shipping industry as a whole is very inefficient is known. But it still seems like a lot of statements made in this article are rather questionable.
Am I the only one who doesn't seem to care about how much Google knows about my life? I am personally okay with the idea of giving away some information about my life in exchange for using some of their products (Search, Gmail, Chrome, etc) without paying anything.

Besides that, the more they know about me, the better their products get. I am personally thrilled when I open Google maps and it magically whos where I live, where I work, etc. It just makes my life easier.

I think this might be a cultural thing though, people from some third-world countries (like me) may not take privacy and freedom for granted.
> So, what DNS server do you use?

The chaos computer club runs their own, which happens to answer usually just as fast as Google’s DNS. (And which isn’t subject to censorship, Google’s DNS, like Comcast and most US ISPs, censor several domains of piracy websites, although the domains are still existing in the ICANN database, and are reachable through most other DNS servers)
Done :) Thanks
> Besides, most modern languages are written in C/C++ anyway so you have to trust the language implementors to write perfect memory unsafe code which of course they can't.

That happens to be more a factor of not wanting to rebuild everything from scratch than anything else.

Go reference implementation is fully bootstrapped in Go.

D guys a few months ago ported their frontend to D.

C#, VB.NET and F# compilers are botstrapped nowadays. With .NET Native, maybe some other parts could eventually be re-written.

The OpenJDK gets less C++ with each release and there is the plan that when AOT lands, they will slowly migrate other parts to Java as well.

Of course trying to write an optimizer from scratch that beats LLVM or GCC backends is an herculean task, hence why most projects happen to use them as backends.
Perhaps the solution to this might be to use a blue/green screen for anything important? Like they do in movies, and ideally with a fictional location or other decoy setting in the background.

Of course, that wouldn't work for people landing landscape photos, but it might work for say, someone posting an image confirming their identity or showing a document or item they're in possession of.
I simply don't understand how can someone like javascript (or anything derived from it) when there are so many much better languages around. Can someone state some advantages for web development for example compared to ruby, python, or clojure? All I see is a slow tangled mess of dependencies and broken libraries with a package manager which lets you change already released modules and a language which is even more poorly designed than PHP. Is it just because of node.js and the promise that you can use javascript from database to frontend?

Sure, that happens. If you can save millions of dollars a month and move your business from non-viable to viable, I think it's a good tradeoff. That's what I do for a living, so I see value in it. Not everyone should have to deal with it though.

Also, AWS is not problem free. When low level issues (like a firmware problem) strike, which they sometimes will, you often cannot identify or fix the issue yourself. AWS instances still run on that same shitty hardware, and while your odds are better that Amazon figured out most of the issues before you encountered them, your odds are also worse that they tested your particular special use case.

So you can wind up playing the 'debug by support ticket' game. Check everything on your end. Check your deployment times for correlations to the problem. Finally give up and reach out to AWS support. Insist that the issue isn't on your end. Find out that the issue can't be resolved until their deployment next week. It's all understandable given the scope of what Amazon is doing, but they will never be as incentivized as you are to solve your problem.
Goldman didn't help them make that happen. They sold them highly leveraged bets that the bank stocks would go up, not bank stocks. The two are very different things.
I would almost buy the food argument, but there aren't all that many American women lining up to marry Chinese men. I'm sure such people exist, but not in numbers sufficient to alleviate this particular issue. American men marry non-Americans, but for the most part American women do not.
Which is why often the best tradeoff can be in colocating in existing datacenters, and just putting a few dozen of your own racks in.

Or in renting dedicated servers.

I’ve done some checks for the same performance between colocating, dedicated, VPS, and stuff like container engine + cloud databases, and with each level of abstraction the cost per month usually goes up by an order of magnitude.
Interesting - we started launching GPU workloads recently without bumping into that. Might be limited to VPC-only?
I question the amount of people that would be buying these for research AND gaming.
In an ideal society we won't need the law at all. The society we have however isn't ideal, and so we have laws to keep it from decending into chaos and tyranny.

The people at the NSA who decided to build dragnet surveillance didn't sit down one day and said "hey, I'm feeling evil today, let's violate some laws for lulz", they said "omg terrorists, this is a case where we have to weigh both sides". When cops do illegal searches, they're convinced they're weighing both sides in the interests of getting a criminal of the street.

At the very least, you lose any credibility to criticise the government when they bend the law to catch some bad guys, if you're OK with them bending the law to catch other bad guys.

There are some things that are more important than catching some asshole tax cheats. Preservation of the rule of law is one such thing.

Every washing machine now has bearings as part of the drum, so if they fail you have to replace the entire washer (at least here in the UK). It's not a Samsung design peculiarity, it's just another example of the rise of planned obsolescence.
Cost, Scope, Time – Prioritising Crucial Elements of Software Development
I think the issue here is, as many other have pointed out, that the imbalanced/weight problem for washing machines has been a solved problem for nearly 50 years. It's fine that we're moving away from all mechanical detection methods and more energy/water efficient washers, but removing the previously solved operational safety functionality just seems silly. I completely agree it's an issue of operator error, but that's not the problem - the problem is that it was a _solved_ issue of operator error that is now a problem again because it seems like there were no safeguards put in place. It would seem to me that there has to be a grand number of chances to figure this out during the QA stage for these washers and determine a simple software solution, even if that solution is the washing session cancels, drains, and the LED errors with "Overloaded" or something. The owners may be annoyed, but at least the machine isn't ruined and it can train them to use the correct load size.

Honestly, I don't think it's too unreasonable for any given person not to be able to estimate the mass of a load of laundry. I assume the recommendations (4kg, as you suggested) are educated guesses at best as it's hard to tell how much water any given item will retain during the spin cycle. Since it's an imprecise calculation anyways, wouldn't it make more sense to instead just let the machine dictate its own limits so the user can adjust their washing habits subsequently?

edit: mistyped and forgot to write "...because it seems like there were no safeguards put in place."
I can perfectly tell the difference, you simply missed the point.
