I am not a caddy developer but I notice the same plugin missing so I started my own. https://github.com/nicolasazrak/caddy-cache still needs a lot of work thought.
That's literally exactly what 20-30% of HN would love to see! Such a giant pain in the ass.
You're describing what ADD/ADHD+OCD feels like. I recently realized I had a problem and went to a psychiatrist. The meds they prescribed helped quite a bit.
Meh, I'll install it later.
NO. Even it it was Russia (I'm not convinced). No wars, cyber or physical. I'm fine, the economy is fine, your fine, we don't need any wars or escalating tensions.

The DNC is a private organization, that apparently knows nothing about security, but a "major retaliation" is dumb. Besides, we now know the DNC's "election" was faked anyway, so why prepare a giant cyberattack when the outcome was rigged anyway?

You know what's also hilarious about Obama is he taunted a massively transparent administration, but Edward Snowden proved that otherwise. Yet, I see people lauding his praises and talking about Michelle Obama as if they actually did something. Why is he allowed to distance himself from the abuses by the NSA 6 years into his presidency? Either he was a complete moron, or willfully ignorant of his predecessor, both which are inexcusable. So when he "recommends" Hillary, we should all be running the other way.... especially now that these massive scandals about Hillary have proven to have substance. CA/NY/IL, please don't reward these political families and organizations with your electoral votes.
The thing is, what if the universe our simulation exists in has completely different laws of physics? It's almost impossible to speculate on I think.
Can you explain how you think YC cutting off ties with Peter Thiel would decrease the likelihood (even infinitesimally) that Donald Trump becomes president? There are a number of tangible things an individual could do to help defeat Trump, but personally shunning a Trump supporter (even one as prominent as Thiel) seems more like a gesture designed to signal your own purity as opposed to doing anything concrete to prevent Trump from becoming president. If anything, it would probably be used as further evidence by the most conservative 30% of the country that Silicon Valley is their enemy.
The Mousepox Experience: On Dual-Use Research
To some extent, it doesn't have to stand up, that isn't the point of the arrest and prosecution (or in a civil context, suing).

The point is making news orgs spend scarce resources on legal defense, or more precisely for them to FEAR such expenses, and thereby self-censor (so, you rarely have to demonstrate your willingness to do so in order to cause a widespread chilling effect). Not to mention that while she's arrested or in court she conveniently can't cover the confrontation.

The civil lawsuit version of this is called a Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation, or SLAPP.

It is quite effective, especially in states that don't have anti-SLAPP legislation (and North Dakota doesn't).

In any case, the criminal version is usually called malicious prosecution, and the bar is set rather high (you have to prove that the prosecution wasn't just unjustified by the evidence, but caused actual damages beyond the ordinary costs of the defense such as lost wages, and reputational damage doesn't count), not to mention that prosecutors (and judges) are usually specifically immune to lawsuits alleging malicious prosecution in the first place.
The one in the video is a small test loop in a theme park in south Jakarta (TMII). Its still operational, very noisy. They open up the windows at both end to keep the passengers cool. If you get up early you can go for a jog on the track before it starts!

Various Jakarta monorail / light rail projects have failed in the meantime, however recently work has begun on an elevated light rail and it looks to be making good progress.
So see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bride_price which at least is practiced in some West African cultures that are otherwise very similar to dowry ones.

This leads me to beleive that the transaction direction is somewhat arbitrary, and the main purpose is the ritual of negotiating with the other family and then establishing s financial bond to match the matrimonial one.

Social Psycologists would argue that men are more expendable because their low marginal contribution to the reproductive capacity of a society. Indeed there is genetic evidence that the distribution of children was less equal, with many kings with harems on one hand and childless low-status on the other.

Colloquislly, we have memes of "<harmed> even women and children" and "women and children" getting on lifeboats. Male subcultures tend to emphasize competition and unequal outcomes rather than care and cooperation.

Many of the most dangerous jobs skew male, but that could do more with them requiring brute strength.
Writing Aws Lambdas in Scala
I thought that was what we wanted?
Part of that can also be that the helper functions are taking in whole objects (think js mvc style model objects) when they're really doing a date calculation on one field in the objects. It's not bad that the logic is encapsulated, it's that its encapsulated at the wrong layer. I've run across well written 50 line functions in Perl or c# but I would hesitate to call a function in js or other potentially more concise languages well written (discounting lines devoted to object/dict/hash definitions).

Couchbase Lite does all this, and is a mature, shipping product with many real-world deployments (including peer-to-peer as a primary use). It's a JSON document database, with full map/reduce indexing/query capabilities. It uses MVCC (similar to git) to handle offline first + conflict resolution.

Couchbase Lite can be used stand-alone, or as part of the Couchbase Mobile stack, which includes Sync Gateway and Couchbase Server. Everything is open source, too.

I'm happy to answer questions here, you can ping me on twitter, or through our forums, etc. Hod @ Couchbase
Let's stick to the facts. University employs a Nobel Award winning scientist. He spends the next 30 years doing very little. The University says "hey, that's not cool. We thought you were going to keep doing research. Everyone says they're being too demanding."

I didn't say Nobel Award winners AREN'T a good investment. I said this one WASN'T. The University clearly thought he was going to produce. He didn't, and they were unhappy... with the return on their investment in him.

Right. The equity of early employees is high. My example wasn't about compensation, clearly. It was how long you continue to keep an underperforming employee in a position just because they did good work in the past.

I'd feel far more comfortable with Chipotle if they could definitively say, "It appears uncooked cilantro in our rice was harboring E. coli; we've changed how we prepare that item and believe the problem is fixed." Instead, we now have a nebulous "central kitchens work for other companies, so now we're doing it" solution. As little as I cared about their feel-good "local food" drumbeat, it bothers me that they turned away from that stance.

At the same time, I've not seen a slowing of the constant level of decline in cleanliness at the stores near me. When they were opened, they were shiny a new. Now, though, they've begun to attract a noticeable level of crud in the corners and other hard-to-clean areas like the perforated wooden wall boards. The kitchen areas look to have received a good once-over, but the stores show the abuse they've suffered under high-volume visits.

What if people aren't sick from bacteria in the food, but from a nasty colony on the underside of a table or chair or even wall leaned against while waiting to order food that is often eaten in handheld form? Does the food safety program encompass those areas too? If so, why doesn't it clearly show?
Sure :)

Going a bit off the deep end here.

When you disagree but don't feel well informed, often the best thing to do is move on. There is little value in maintaining positions that don't directly bear on future actions you will personally take.

Sometimes it's not even about being well informed, it's about having another ten years of experience.

Respect is recognizing the gap between you and the one making the decision.

Respect doesn't just mean shutting up, it can mean changing your perspective or changing the weight you give to your own opinion.

Hod @ Couchbase here. Depending on what you mean, I have to disagree. Are you talking about Vanadium Core, or Vanadium and Syncbase? From what I'm reading, Couchbase does significantly more than Syncbase. It supports many of the security features of Vanadium, although it doesn't have ACLs with things like proximity built-in.
This is a great article, thank you very much for writing it.

I pretty much agree with all points, except number 9 could probably be "Not challenging the Status Quo" instead of "Following the Status Quo".

Breaking the status quo just for the sake of it would be a mistake, while healthy challenge of status quo with open mindedness to accept to not change anything is probably a better direction.

> Areas of code that don’t see commits for a long time are smells. We are expected to keep every part of the system churning.

Or it could be an indicator of mature features that were well designed and implemented to minimize future headache: they just work and have very few stable dependencies, if any.
Calling children 'life choices' (something that happens far too often here on HN) is... interesting, to say the least. That you believe that other people's 'life choices' (in this case, children) are 'holding them back' is also interesting.

I suggest you have some prejudices that you need to resolve.
There's nothing which would make me want to vote for him. But I don't presume to speak for everybody.
Agreed. I had my diagnosis little over a year and half ago, and I know all of these too well. In any case though, without a professional evaluation, one can never be sure.
I'd say that it is just as important to an organization to learn how to deal with people leaving. It's better to have someone leaving under good terms than bad, and if you're totally reliant upon a single person doing a single role, you're not displaying too much 'organizing' in your organization.
It took me way too long to realize the article was not referring to a computer virus.
There is quite some variation in the way the human hand works. I can move my middle and ring fingers completely independently, but when I stretch my left middle finger, my left pinky tries to extend, too. I can prevent this by pressing its tip against my palm.

Except for this difficulty, simultaneously moving multiple fingers is no problem for me. For binary counting you just need to flip a group of fingers inward and extend the next one. There are instruments that require more difficult movement patterns to play.

I just timed myself repeatedly counting to 32 as fast as possible on my left hand, and I averaged at 13 seconds. That seems entirely practical to me.
Wow, this is like Allaire (the late 90s company) all over again! Pick a cool technology that techies love and just grind out some great tools. It is really heartening to know that you can still build a real company around this, not just a volunteer open source project. Kudos to JJ.

Context: In the late 90s the cool technology was the web and ColdFusion was one of the first popular server-side markup languages (along with ASP and PHP). This time around it looks like the cool tech is big data analysis.

Do you ever find it ironic that you are trying to combat totalitarian fear-mongering with an argument that in part is literally "think of the children?"
> by determining the distribution of the process that the data was generated from.

Well, each random variable has a distribution. And there are a few distributions that are common so are taught. Then, presto, bingo, too many students conclude that an important first step is to find a distribution. However, commonly in practice, with just samples and without more in mathematical assumptions, finding a distribution is from not very promising to hopeless. Hopeless? Yes, consider a random variable that takes values in 50 dimensional Euclidean space.

But there is a lot of statistics that is distribution-free, where we make no assumptions on probability distributions. E.g., I published such a paper in Information Sciences. In addition with some meager assumptions, say, the random variables have expectations, the squares of the random variables have finite expectations, etc., can do more.

For model fitting, if can assume that the data has Gaussian distribution, is homoscedastic, have independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.), etc., then can get some more results, e.g., know that some of the results of the computations have Gaussian or F distribution, etc. Then can do a lot of classic hypothesis tests, confidence intervals, etc.

But, with just meager assumptions, commonly can still proceed and know that are still making a best L^2 approximation. Then can drag out the classic result that a sequence of (such) random variables that are Cauchy convergent in L^2 do converge in L^2, that L^2 is complete (i.e., a Hilbert space), and that some sub-sequence converges almost surely. That's a lot -- might be able to take that to the bank. And made no more than meager, general assumptions about distributions.

Really, often we get some of the well known distributions from some theorems, not analysis of empirical data. E.g., get a Gaussian assumption from the central limit theorem. Can get an exponential distribution from the Poisson process (e.g., E. Cinlar's text), and can get that from the very general, even astounding, renewal theorem (e.g., W. Feller's second volume).
Good to know, thanks.

That's a good stop-gap, but the tool itself should either pass through everything to the HTML or throw errors on anything that isn't going to get passed through. The silent failure mode is a UX bug.
It's actually very possible for Americans if they plan correctly. From what I've seen, only the salaries near London approach anything close to the typical six figure rates seen in the US.

It should be pretty easy for any developer in the US to sock away several hundred thousand dollars by mid 30s. I did it.

Simply continuing to live as I always have, regardless of raises, has made the most difference. Granted, children and marriage are two things that I'm very unlikely to do anytime soon, as I feel it is simply too risky in the US as a man.

But yes there is something in our culture that impedes travel and long vacations like this. I have visited many places off the beaten path, and one thing I've noticed is that Europeans (especially Germans) really seem to get around the world - they prioritize it, while in the US I've only recently taken my first vacation in many years where I did not bring my work alone with me. I think the lack of job stability really makes Americans feel anxious about employment. One can lose their job here and be out the door in 30 minutes, no warning. There is absolutely no safety net for males in US society, and one trip to the ER without health insurance can screw you over financially.

But like I said, salaries in the US seem really high, so it can certainly be done. In fact, I prefer this to the EU system as I am in full control of my life, and by saving more money that isn't taxed as much, it's possible to retire far earlier than engineers in the EU or elsewhere.
I didn't see anything in the article that referenced this, but why is the assumption being made that the virus acquired the genes from black widows and not the other way around?

Yishan vs. dehrmann (2014)
Do you believe that such a speech should have no consequences whatsoever?

Of course not. We should absolutely hold Trump responsible for what he says. The disagreement here is whether we should hold Trump supporters responsible for what Trump says.

(And I'm not sure if saying "all Jews should be gassed" is legal; in Canada it would probably fall under hate speech laws on the basis of inciting violence, but the USA has stronger protection of free speech rights. Per Brandenburg, it may be that "all Jews should be gassed" would be legal but "we should beat up the Jews" wouldn't, in that the latter advocates more imminent violence.)
It's actually much more simple. It's just urbanization vs rural. As urbanization increases, population density can increase. Until very recently Africa was mostly rural.
I'd be really interested to learn about companies that replace their entire codebase twice a year. That seems amazing.
I think it won't give you much in Dev but can give your more in production. We have the following work flow

1. Use Docker images for our applications where we can run them locally by mounting in a config file pointing to local db or dev cluster db etc

2. We then use CI to build new docker images and push them to our registry

3. Using Kubernetes deployment yaml files we then deploy the new versions to the cluster with rolling upgrades.
This can be combined with auto scaling
For config we have a Kubernetes ConfigMap in the cluster which then gets mounted into the docker containers when they start.

My suggestions would be for you to check out Googles Hosted Kubernetes which removes a lot of the headache of getting up and running.

I was uprooted from one country to the other as a kid.

Pro is that I can pass as a native both in the US and France.

Con is that I don't feel at home in either place; to my American friends I'm the French guy, and to my French friends I'm the American guy.

Overall I think it's mostly positive though. Certainly wouldn't have bad the breadth of experiences I've had otherwise.

There are also deeper questions, like whether I should raise my kids in the US, France, or someone else altogether- but this won't be an issue for another while.
Funny how most people decide after one attempt if a marketing approach works for them or not. What happened to really learning the stuff before making decisions? You can be sure that common sales channels will work if you know how to do them and if you have a product that fits the corresponding market you are targetting. Use one of the known common ones (SEO, ads, social marketing), learn all that it has to offer, experiment with your product and corresponding markets (i.e. if your market is not on HN, try a subreddit, or other forum). You will certainly make some financial success if you do that well enough. Only really start to decide that something works in a context or not, after you have attempted different channels with success a few times each, and base that decision not on whether or not that brings in money at all, but whether or not that is a likely efficient approach.
There are solutions to write and 'send' an email now for scheduled delivery. Gmail users for example can use Boomerang: http://www.boomeranggmail.com/
Also server push ignores the client's cache, so it's not actually a good optimization unless they're things you know aren't in the cache or they're small enough that youi can re-send them every time.

I didn't read it as a criticism of machine learning or intellectuals, but rather of the many bright minds that are trying to make money off of the stock market by writing software to make better trades. This kind of activity doesn't create value or even, to my knowledge, liquidity.

For one thing, it's a lot easier and more common for the transfer to go in that direction. If you think about the life cycles and what would have to happen in each case, one is just a lot more likely than the other.

While teaching entrepreneurship, I pointed out that since people don't try to make the world worse, many problems today started out as solutions.
