In context, n is the number of things in the hashmap. You need log2(n) bits per item to store n unique items. So the hash function is operating on an input of log2(n) bits. There's no way the hash function takes less than log2(n) time to work on log2(n) bits of input.

Sense is JSON aware (and autocomplete is nice) but it still expects you to write the Elasticsearch DSL.

Mirage provides an alternative interface (GUI based) to compose the Elasticsearch queries that it transpiles on the fly to the Elasticsearch JSON syntax (and you're free to work with the latter as well).
I am very surprised that you had that experience in metropolitan city like Delhi. What were the women wearing? I don't even know what kind of dress women will have to wear which covers theirs wrists and ankles.

Here's what you will find Indian women wearing in day to day life:

1. Educated, middle class: Salwaar Kameez, Jeans/Top, Skirt/Top.
2. Older or more conservative women: Sari. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sari Even Sari exposes a women's midriff and her hands.

You build a great product. Now what? How do you get users?

The next step is marketing. Unless your target market is so tiny you or your sales team can do a direct outreach.

Gaining users and customers is extremely difficult, often unpredictable and potentially expensive. While a bad product/technology/service can set you back there is no guarantee the best will get you success. Users can be unpredictable and the adoption curve for anything new is long.

Sometimes marketing is earlier in the market identification and product building stage so you know the market you are going after, gaps, segments and the value proposition to customers or users. This is product strategy. You can completely botch this step and expend effort on a product/service that is not clearly differentiated and has no market case.

B2C (business to consumer) marketing typically use large budgets to reach a wide potential customer base using traditional advertising channels, and now online and social channels. Even 'lucking' out with hype, viral marketing and rapid adoption requires someone or a team to fuel this hype.

B2B (business to business) marketing is more hands on and about building a predictable pipeline for your sales team to target and close. In some b2b business the sales cycle can be hugely long and expensive and the cost per lead and opportunity measured in thousands of dollars.

> Enterprise's AI data was backed up

Ultimately, I think this is where AI will differ from ML. An AI won't have data that isn't a part of the AI - i.e. you couldn't separate out information specific to Picard from the rest of the AI code. An AI might be able to "scribble" down some notes about interacting with Picard and pass them off to another ship's AI, but the second AI would never treat Picard quite the same way as the first, even with those notes.

This stems from my belief that how ML interprets data is different from how an AI would. If you were to copy all of the data used to build a ML model and apply it again, you'd end up with the same ML model. An AI, on the other hand, if built twice twice from the same data would end creating two separate AIs.

Certainly, these days, almost anything bad that can be associated with Islam is covered and is spun that way.

The work in the Qt camp is simply amazing. I just wish there were more stable bindings out there for it outside of the official C++ one and PyQt (commercial or GPL, PySide 2 is not stable last I checked).

There's a promising Qt binding for Go[1] which I'm looking forwards to, but again, if I had to write an application and not want to struggle with the bindings I'm forced into the previously mentioned options.

8000 BTU is about right. It's impressive that you actually got that water to evaporate from the roof in a decent amount of time in Atlanta though, since it's so humid. I'm not sure that it does much, since either your roof or your attic floor is insulated.
Yep, I agree with this. I wrote my first novel during my daily commute (40 minutes each way), and part of the trick was getting into the habit of opening my laptop as soon as I sat down. I also discovered a lot about writer's block. I wrote about the whole thing here: https://medium.com/@gabrielgambetta/how-i-wrote-my-first-nov... (the companion article about the open source pipeline to get it published was discussed in HN earlier: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12311200)
I don't agree. To take a microscopic view of just one of them, consider TIMESTAMP. It was identical to DATETIME, except that if you touch that row, the _first_ TIMESTAMP column gets automagically updated to the current time. This isn't the kind of thing that happens by accident, someone decided that this was desirable and went out of their way to write code to make it happen. The feature caused a great deal of confusion and probably a significant amount of data loss. It's more than merely non-standard or in some sense "less" than Postgres, it's actually inimical to the model of what's going on, in several senses: column "ordering," a data type with behavior. This kind of "here's a bucket of special-cases" sloppiness is thematic for both MySQL and Mongo.
I should add that when I said "overgrown startup," the implication wasn't that it's a small company. I'm saying that they've operated at a loss for all of their existence (like many SV startups) and never turned that around. Scaling while failing, and they hoped that another round of investment (IPO) would give them time to change that.
Excited to try it out and see how it goes.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know of some good mailing lists for this (SLAM/similar)? I don't always have time to scan HN for new releases, but I'd still like to stay on top of things.
Thanks to certain popular technologies like Hadoop, a lot of big companies have their legal teams looking at open source licenses as an alternatives to the big vendors like IBM. Using R and CRAN is getting easier because of this.

A lot of customers we worked with only provided outputs to external parties via reports, extracts, dashboards, etc. I don't recall a situation where an external person could run an R script (e.g. some of the companies I worked for provided their customers with BI reports). Don't ask me about the legality of that - even if I had an answer I wouldn't say it.

We used to run into all sorts of annoying issues with regards to licensing. For example, I worked at a customer where their scientists were blocked from downloading stuff from CRAN in an ad-hoc way (e.g. install.packages()). And nobody from out team was allowed to send them packages due to fear that they'd blame us for any issues with packages or package licensing.

The end result was a convoluted process for installing R, upgrading R, or anything to do with packages. During one project I was involved in a ridiculously long winded email chain discussing licensing on a particular library, with the lawyers acting like I had some sort of insight into the mind of the library author. That's the kind of resistance some organizations face when thinking about open-source tools.

I think his cynicism is warranted. This is a forum, and one that is subject to trends and favorites. Anytime RethinkDB pops up on HN (or stripe for that matter) it seems to be met with unchecked praise.

And yet here we are with a failed product. I think it's OK to ask why and consider its shortfallings. Obviously there was something, and I don't think it's fair to completely coast over the technology side of things and blame it on "marketing".
Again, you put words in my mouth (and thoughts in my head) and then argue with them. Those are your word and thoughts and I can't help you there.

>Twitter which has a product that isn't even in Disney's wheelhouse. I am confused why Disney is even in this conversation at this point.

One can view the Twitter business in multiple ways.

If one sees Twitter as a technology platform that builds on what IRC/XMPP did before, the Disney connection makes zero sense. (E.g. Disney is not a tech company and they wouldn't be the kind of company that would bring back a developer API.)

However, one can also see Twitter as a media entertainment business and the technology platform behind the scenes as an irrelevant detail. Disney does already own the ABC Broadcasting network and ESPN.

Looking at Twitter via the lense of "media outlet" isn't that strange if you look at the top-100 Twitter profiles:

http://twittercounter.com/pages/100

One will notice it's mostly entertainment celebrities including singers Katy Perry (93M), Justin Bieber (88M), Taylor Swift (81M), etc. The list also includes media channels such as Youtube, CNN, ESPN, BBC, etc.

Sure, many people have touted the social ideals of Twitter and its empowerment of user-driven bottom-up journalism. It's a "global consciousness" for news. However, it's interesting to note the relatively low number of followers for famous journalists compared to the entertainment celebrities: Christiane Amanpour (1.8M), Louis Theroux (1.5M), Glenn Greenwald (743k), Malcolm Gladwell (422k), Bob Woodward (15.9k), etc.

If you see Twitter as a media/broadcast business, an acquisition by Google/Apple doesn't make any sense.

If you see Twitter as a technology platform to sell more digital ads, an acquisition by Disney makes no sense.

All that said, we've seen one media company (Rupert Murdoch) buy a web company (MySpace) and that didn't turn out so well for a variety of reasons.

Comment your code.

Top level comments explain the purpose behind a function or type. It can explain nuances that can't be discovered from the name (does this function append a newline at the end? Does it ignore empty values? What happens if this value is null? etc).

Aside from trivially bad comments (i.e. "add 1 to n"), comments are almost always helpful to get into the head of the person that wrote the code (even if that person was you, a few weeks ago). Comments are great at explaining why. Why this code exists at all, why it's doing things the way it is, why the hell we're removing the last character of this string, etc.

Sure, you should write clear code... but there is no way that a function name can convey all the details of the function... otherwise the name would be as long as the comment you put above it:

IndentJsonWithTheGivenIndentStringAndReturnWithoutTrailingWhitespace

If your comments are getting out of step with the code - you need better code reviewers. Code review should be a part of any professional development organization. If you're just hacking on a side project on your own... then yes, it means you have to review your own code. This is a skill, it takes practice, but one of the things you should always be looking for is "do the comments match the code?"

I would be very VERY skeptical of any experienced developer that said they don't comment their code.

Don't you think that's part of the reason the West is averse to the hijab? Precisely because women have fought for years to be free from men micromanaging their bodies and behavior, the hijab stands out as a symbol of oppression. That's all that Iran is doing with its mandatory modesty laws: oppressing women. Yes, it happens in the West too, albeit to a much lesser degree, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't call it out when it happens elsewhere.

The problem with trying to quote you directly is that you actually aren't saying anything of substance. You're simply being an apologist who apparently can't muster up the courage to even take a stance on way or the other. You're just offering some good old PR hedging for an oppressive regime and trying to neuter the discussion with vague allusions to moral relativism.

I'll ask again, what exactly are you trying to say? As it stands now, you're bogging down an important conversation that needs to happen with half-baked apologism.

My mother was a HS teacher who worked nights/weekends in a RS store in sales, and also taught Basic. I can tell you that people did that kind of stuff in stores all the time, at least in suburban NJ.
Like I said, mostly upgrading packages outside of the distribution's package manager or running separate packages. This is especially problematic with internal tools that I (1) needed to write a script for and (2) were not necessarily well documented and (3) relied on other portions of the system. It was also problematic when trying to untangle someone else's solution to the problem (say a colleague or worse, a predecessor). So say I adopt a system that starts up some internal application as a subsystem. Being diligent I start to do my system upgrades and now my totally undocumented script has broken and I've got to piece it back together. Systemd takes much of the guesswork out of that process, because now I simply need to define that service and it's up to the vendor or package maintainer to ensure it starts. It's perhaps worse that this is not my full time job, I work in an organization that has pieced together systems from vendors, volunteers, outside organizations and so on.

It doesn't help that we are increasingly dependent on packages that most would argue are as opaque as systemd. For example, if my organization wants to adopt single sign on (and why not), I've got to install shibboleth: a massive, hulking beast of a system that I don't really understand but can tell you for sure does not obey Unix's "one tool, one function" philosophy and with an init script that I pieced together from parts. (Tangent: There are days when I miss Microsoft and it's suite of integrated tools, notable active directory).

So I would say that while systemd has plenty of bug reports, init simply substitutes endless form posts on fixing init for bugs. And frankly, after a rocky start on the switch over, I haven't seen many issues with systemd.

So perhaps it's just acknowledging that best practices don't always get followed and that others have a different set of problems. I expect systemd resolved a lot of issues for distribution maintainers that had to walk gingerly around init when planning their upgrades. Perhaps that's the wrong reason to switch, but at least it's a reason I understand.
I'm not saying the changes aren't profound, just that they might as well be made out of respect or out of a need for hiring people they can't find locally.
I still don't quite understand how these decentralized networks work.
So there's no "global" stream you can take a look at? Only from people you added? Because from a privacy standpoint I'd think that it would somehow be possible to get access to all available profiles on all instances and create a big platform where you gather all data and keep it forever.
Maybe those who write are fond of seeing themselves differently so they say that writers are different.
