point taken. I have had xfs_check run out of memory because $reasons. This has reminded me of that. But then we also had lustre, so you know, by comparison XFS is a paragon of stability (We also had clustered XFS....)

But, mostly it happens because the fileservers dont have UPS's (The pipeline tools are almost exclusively COW, and backups are tested many times a week.)

I think we paid for support on XFS from either redhat or SGI, but I can't remember, I left that place a year or so ago.

I've never had the balls to run ZFS on large(100tb+) arrays. Last time I tried the way slab handling was translated from solaris cause many problems (but that was more than 4 years ago. ) Plus the support is a bit odd, you either go with oracle(fuck that), or one of the openZFS lot.

To get the best performance/stability you ideally need to let ZFS do everything, instead of letting the enclosure do the raid 6 (4 * 14 disk raid 6 with 4 spares). This of course is a break from the norm and to be treated with utmost suspicion.

Have you seen the GPFS raid replacement? thats quite sexy.

I run ZFS at home, because it works, and has bitrot checking.
As for many others, this does not work for me, yet I'm eager to try this.
The examples you previously gave are different from what you're saying now, but like I said the article clearly said that they will limit the number of actions per minute which means: no gimmicky/weird micro tricks.

Any other advantage you mentioned (computers having a larger memory and faster reaction time than humans) shouldn't be removed, as that doesn't make any sense: machines will be machines. You're building an AI on such a complex game because you want to be able to model hard problems with incomplete information, and to do so you do need to use a lot of memory and the computer's fast processing... even if that means being faster than a human. That is "fair".
These would be killer features. Filter by themes:

- that don't have any stupid JS/CSS animations

- that don't use web fonts or at least make me configure them easily

- that have a combined max size of all assets minus content, e. g. "JS+CSS+Icons+Images+Fonts < 200KB"

- that have a combined max amount of requests for all assets, e. g. "max 5 HTTP requests to fetch CSS, JS, Icons, Fonts"

Because I'm tired of animations, bloat and low page speed.

I know, it's impossible, but let me dream on ;)
Developers Read 1 Star Reviews
Okay, here's my argument. Argumentum ad popularum does not excuse abhorrent opinions, and your support of this makes you supportive of racism and mysoginy. This does not stop existing because people support it, it just makes them racist and mysoginsitic by extension. Like you.
Opera 12 had, which doesn't really exist anymore. It's Blink based now and I don't recall the feature being restored (yet).

Even bad UML diagrams are hard to write for a human that is more into typing than drawing. I was even forced to create text-to-UML tool when I was a young dev. Saved a lot of time.

No.

This is a "hack" in the true sense of the word. Fun!
Yes, interesting initiatives do exist! Still, "making a living" contributing to them is hard. But there are also coops exploring how to build non-alienating organizations... (I can thing of Igalia, I don't work for them but I keep it as inspiration for when/if I want to start a coop: http://igalia.com/)

There are some sparks of hope. And I am very thankful to all those that light them up.

But when most people do the other way around and it is sometimes hard not to indulge into a bit of self-doubt and think: am I maybe the crazy one?
Isn't Travis already running on Docker? So.. this is Docker within Docker? Is there a reason you wouldn't just use different docker images at the Travis level for this?
I'm kinda surprised that they don't just build a service on top of generic netlink. For those of you who don't know, Netlink has been a generic API for Kernel<->Client communication for some time. The kernel added the ability for modules to register their own generic netlink families that can add another route of kinds for modules to communicate with.

Does anyone know why?
Reading the bullet points with actual gun shot sound in our minds makes it so amazing! Try it
"Manipulate", that's what I meant by "transformations by higher order functions". The point is acknowledged, but I feel in practice it's not always beneficial. There are typically not many more points of use than different transformations. Doing the stuff inline (with catch blocks) is often better since there's less conceptual overhead.

"Bubbling up", that's exactly what the monad instance gives you. How EitherT is supposed to be used. That's why I said there's not much difference from a practical standpoint. So no, EitherT does not force any better style than checked exceptions (but it makes it really inconvenient to traverse regions of code with differing sets of exceptions).

I still feel that the C-style way of handling error codes is superior in most situations, from a writeability and readability perspective. The big problem is it doesn't enforce error handling. Another problem is it's totally unsuited for quick and dirty scripts like I can write with Python "unchecked" exceptions: Just do it, and tell me if there were errors (I might or might know which ones are possible) only at runtime.

I don't speak German but I love that word already. Craftmanship however doesn't exist in consumerism and capatilism where the goal is maximize profit and minimize cost. Whatever quick crap that I can sell to you to make better gain for myself is the way to go. Product development lines (not only in tech but in other fields such as construction) are dozens of levels of deep with each link adding a layer of indifference and workers who just don't give a f*k and nobody takes overall responsibility for any of the services/products rendered.

Eventually this our communal fault for having a strong bias towards price.

Personally I'd love to buy better quality products even if that means the price is higher. I'd love to replace quantity with quality. But sadly that doesn't exist in many fields / product categories and going for the "Premium" product still gives you that same "made in china" experience unless you can really afford to buy those luxury items such as have a single carpenter build you your dining table by hand. (Which is something I'd love to do but the cost is prohibitive)
Yes, that would make a slightly better syntax. However, using the .set() method has an advantage of letting you pass all attributes in a single hash, and re-rendering only once at the end. It's a trade off, I think.

I see this as part of the point of the episode. It's about control: the cycling is supposed to be pointless, many of the riders may even be aware of this, but speaking out against it just gets you... well... [spoilers]
As I understand it, Speed Queen bought a Whirlpool factor making old fashioned, electrical-mechanical controlled washers (and dryers, I guess) for the consumer market, and they have a great reputation in the field.

Unless one has a major fault, which is of course especially likely before it gets to you due to shipping damage or a mistake in the factory. In that case, they effectively refuse to service your machine, because they pay their 3rd party repair crew per incident, not accounting for the work required for one. So if one of those electro-mechanical control units fails, as they were eventually prone to do in the bad old days, you're all set, but ... well, after finding this out, I ended up paying > $200 for a major repair to my 2007 GE washer, and plan to continue doing that as long as possible, it was designed and manufactured before these machines went completely to shit.

Note also that in the US the Federal government pays companies to make their washers steadily do a poorer job in the name of energy efficiency (there are limits to other appliances, e.g. no one would accept a fridge which won't keep food in the safe zone, but not for washers). Whirlpool, which is essentially a pure play in appliances, didn't pay any taxes for a couple of years or so because of these credits they received from the Feds.
Chrome Apps are being killed on everywhere but Chrome OS though, so you won't be able to do this in a few years.
Because before the computer you wrote this comment on existed, at some point in early history the original hardware hackers were figuring out how to hack mother nature and their environment to first keep themselves alive, and then to thrive enough to allow them to build up to where we are now.

The evolution of technology is relevant to all of us here. It is utterly humbling and fascinating to try and imagine a time when this was bleeding edge technology that was saving lives from hunger. But some random cave person somewhere came up with this with a much smaller brain than yours.

What he is doing is not entirely different from building a computer from first principles... He's just doing it for "primitive technology" and honoring the real original neck beard (literally) who was nerdy enough to come up with this concept.
Building a Time Capsule – Guidelines for Preserving Materials (2007) [pdf]
You don't need the Masters degree to be a chartered engineer as far as I know.

If you graduate and gain enough experience on the job (probably more cost effective than being at uni for another year) to be considered to have an equivalent standard of education I believe you can become a CEng with a presentation.
It's odd to see this sort of philosophy/theology posted on here, but since the subject was broached, from the article:

> Virtually all the world’s major religions teach that diligent work in the service of others is our highest nature and thus lies at the center of a happy life.

Actually, Ecclesiastes (great read for all philosophy geeks) is a long discourse of happiness, the point of life, etc. Its final conclusion was:

> Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.

The core of Judeo-Christian theology is the supremacy of God and trust that following His instructions is the best way to live the best possible life. Of course there is a lot of teaching about how to care for others, and there's a lot of teaching against selfishness, but that is the result of following a good God, not the point in itself.

Ecclesiastes actually brings up charity as wise, but falls far short of saying it's the point of life. It points out that there's limits to human knowledge. In my wording, help people, because that could be you tomorrow, but the person you save from a fire today could drown tomorrow. You'd need to be able to see the future to utterly help someone, and only God has that kind of foresight. So if you trust that God exists and is good, you should obey His teachings.

> Indeed, what unites the two of us in friendship and collaboration is not shared politics or the same religion. It is something simpler: a shared belief in compassion, in human dignity, in the intrinsic usefulness of every person to contribute positively for a better and more meaningful world.

I'm eager to collaborate productively with everyone. But if you're interested in being my friend, you need to understand where I come from. I value human life because mankind was made in the image of God (imagao dei). My eagerness to give human compassion, dignity, and usefulness another shot grows out of my trust in God and his teachings that say to do just that. But I do that in spite of the track record of humanity, not because I have faith in what humans will do in the future. Who knows the future?

There's a bit of an "all religions are the same" meme out there, and it's important to correct it, especially when respectable people repeat it.
I would strongly encourage you to go against your preconceived idea of what StarCraft is (a game where people compete on who's the fastest to bash their keys) and see a professional game and all the strategy it entails, such as in the semi-finals and grand final that will be on today.
Pro players do have valid reasons for having such a high APM (even if a portion of it, maybe 30%, is just "spamming" to keep theirselves active and ready), but you can be an excellent player with rather low APM (~120 maybe?). Why would you need to do 2 action per second? A lot of it is simply building units periodically (e.g pressing 1 then "S" every 10 seconds) but then APM really gets high when there is a battle and you need to give actions to multiple sets of units to get a good engagement.

DeepMind always published papers about their research (the AlphaGo paper goes into a lot of details on how everything works). Not sure why you're doubting the openness of this initiative when they are pushing an open API for everybody to do research on, not just DeepMind.

For the vast majority of players it's probably irrelevant whether the AI cheats or not. The goal is not to play fair and beat the human usually, but to put up a good fight and make things challenging and, most importantly, fun for the human. Of course, competitive and professional players have different expectations or requirements in that regard.

Still, AI in games is mostly a trade-off. It usually can't take too much resources (because it usually has to run on the same machine the human is playing on), it has to be believable and fun to play against. This usually rules out too fancy algorithms and approaches with dubious returns.

Funny you'd say that. I also dislike the latest trend of what we joke as *Wordpress Themes: The New Operating Systems of the Web". So bloated and so slow.

One of those boring days I actually tried that. Since we parse every page we know what's inside, how many connections they make, and the load times before and after DOM load. basically as you listed. You could then actually filter based on that, but you know, it is a very power user feature. Maybe we do it like an "advanced filters" section that does not confuse normal users, you know, for fun.
Building a Joomla Component with Haxe
I imagine kids in the 90s thought of the internet as a magic tool that would revolutionize society, 'defeat' all the big businesses and industries, and other such naive notions. Now Google/Facebook = big businesses, and society has gotten better overall but no magical revolution.

I think the same thing would probably come of the 'AI singularity-never have to work again' hype - mainly businesses utilizing AI for better ads, with a marginal increase in quality of life.
The problem (not having a condensed matter background, so my answer might not be entirely right) is that we can't solve the Schrödinger equation exactly for many-atom systems.

So we need to approximate our solutions to be able to get a good idea of what properties a material will have. Our approximations are pretty good and we have a decent idea of when some things superconductor. But our theories of superconduction aren't yet perfect, and sometimes the approximations can fail//generate behavior unexpected by our theories.
It seems the feature here is server-less discovery (mdns). Because otherwise intranet communication between apps is already possible via WebRTC.

Along that track, it would be nice to see native DHT support in the browser, for global server-less discovery.

Unfortunately, just using WebRTC is not a great fit for a DHT, because of connection costs. Also it makes more sense to have DHT persist between app sessions.

I wonder if the problem is more that Google has got terrible support for it's free offerings - maybe for justifiable business reasons. However the damage to their brand when they want to sell business critical services is an unintended consequence. (Similarly I think killing Reader was justifiable from their perspective but the damage to their reputation amongst a vociferous and possibly influential demographic has probably outweighed the cost of keeping it going... They can't launch a service without someone popping up to remind us about Reader)

to be fair, the SSDs in the new MBPs and also in the last 2 generations have been among the best of their class when released. They went with PCIE really early and the new MBPs SSDs reach insane (sequential speeds). Also i believe the RAM is limited to 16GB by Intel for some reason (maybe chipset or CPUs), not by Apple.
I wonder how much of what we're discussing here is "future shock"; we've lived in a time of extremely rapid change and a high-speed cycle of hype and disillusionment.

They have their work cut out for them, but not in the way you think.

Remember that it's easy for an SC2 AI to beat a human if there are no constraints such as APM. So if and when the AI wins, the humans are going to complain that the constraints weren't set tightly enough.

So the contest is going to devolve into a war over the constraints to use, just like the endless bickering between Protoss Terran and Zerg about balancing the units.

The best thing DeepMind will be able to say is that they were able to beat Flash (or whoeever) with only 150 APM. But Flash will complain that it wasnt fair because DeepMind was able to be so efficient with those 150 APM so that really it should be limited to 100.

I suppose once the APM cap is well below what humans do, then the humans will have to admit a sort of defeat.

Hopefully there will be a ladder running where humans can play against the AIs under development and get a feeling for how they play. Will be really fun & interesting!

hell with rocket fuel, if the stuff isn't horribly expensive to produce it could be a good portable source period
I’ve been feeling this. Still not quite sure why. But I think a good reason is I’m starting to see newer technologies come out as veiled hypotheses on how to extract the most time or money out of the user, not so much as things that actually provide real, long-term value to people.

I’m not actively trying to be a luddite or think I need to stick it to “the man”. But I can’t shake the feeling that many technologies coming out simply don’t care enough about humans to warrant actually being used. That’s not to disregard side projects and such. Most of the time the creation out of those projects is out of pure intentions. A lot of those same intentions get thrown out the window when money and company survival and thrown in.

How do you avoid mold and mildew issues when leaving damp clothes in there that long?
I'm fascinated by the topic of English Prime: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-Prime

It introduced me to the idea that 'is' should be treated very carefully. Any assertion outside of strict formal languages that use it are half-truths at best. It also introduces heightens the emotional tone of a discussion. If you say "John is foo" you tend to create the impression that John will always and has always been foo. Foo-ness is a taint on his soul. Contrast that with reformulations that make it explicit that John's foo-ness is a fleeting association related to both his present situation, your current perception of it and the current socially accepted meaning of foo along with all it's implied baggage.

I realise I might be rather off-topic :-)
