Ugh, regardless of what we say we wish to do on this post, what I'm sure many of us lack is external motivation to do it. One app to help solve that is called Spar, developed by a friend of a friend (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/spar!-get-better-at-stuff/id...). You set a goal with your friends, e.g. read a chapter every day, and put 20$ or so in the "pot". Whoever does the best at meeting the goal, gets the pot, and if you slack on your goal you lose the money.
No need to dig into the weeds or wax poetic on the term, people call it serverless because you, the user, don't have to manage any servers personally when you use the "serverless" application.

It sounds like the dislike comes from folks here who just want to be contrary is all.

I don't really agree (I'm one of the developers of ocid / cri-o). Even with a container-manager-as-init you still need to administer your control plane (updates, configuration, so on). Now, you could go the CoreOS way of creating an "administration 'container'" which bindmounts / to somewhere inside the container -- that works but I would still consider it to not be any different from ssh-ing into the machine as root (it removes the need for sshd and means that you can manage the server through the same tooling you manage containers with, but the purpose is the same -- give you a general purpose OS environment you can use to administer things).

Not to mention that your actual containers will still contain general purpose OS images.

Also, as an aside, cri-o would be a very bad choice for PID 1. It's specifically designed so that you don't need it to be a long-running daemon (which is something that Docker cannot do and is actually a very useful feature that we hope to keep). And you can't have your PID 1 just exit whenever it wants to.
Absolutely, could not agree more.

Yea, Hitler had strong opinions too. This can go either way, I guess.

I think having strong opinions based on a deep understanding is better. And generally a deep understanding means you'll discover both pros and cons to most situations.

This means you can make balanced and calculated efforts, instead of blindly starting a crusade and hope you turn out to actually be right.

While it's true you might want to email the author and all, having a PR is great for one thing: letting other people looking for the bug/feature find the fix before it's upstreamed.

This is what I usually do with my PRs. I first submit the PR so it's there for other people to grab if they need it, and then I'll look into the "proper" way of upstreaming the fix.

This avoids duplication of work and enhances discoverability.
Verifying the Substitution Cipher Folklore
When I started university in 2004, many of the international (non-EU) students aimed to graduate, then get a job in the USA.

By the time we were graduating, the USA had mostly closed the normal routes for immigration for these students. It was possible, but far more difficult than simply staying in the UK, so most decided to stay in the UK. Of course, living there for 3-4 years helped, but the simple process for a skilled graduate to get a visa was also attractive.

Nowadays, my impression is a similar group of students would be looking to Canada or Germany.

These were graduates of Imperial College, and I had friends at Cambridge with the same experience. When immigration policy doesn't make it straightforward even for the top 0.1% (or whatever) of graduates to stay, the policy is seriously broken.

I write in C++ and I do not care about the underlying 98% of the time anyway. That 2% of the time I might write something that needs a kernel call, but I will make a class or some other abstraction that represents it and put all my different implementations in there.

For code that cares about word size or something similarly pervasive but platform dependent there are templates and constepxr to have the compiler evaluate things. I won't be putting constants like 32 or 64 in my I will do things like "align_to(system_details::cache_line_size)" and let my compiler handle the details.

Why do you assume everyone fills it up ? Honest question.

While it's true github isn't the "best tool" for everything in the world (what is?), I find it mostly serves as a discovery tool. If I have a bug in a project, I'll first look at the issues/PRs for other people who might have fixed the damned thing. And it often turns out there are. The original author might have abandonned the project, or he might have a different way to handle contributions, but that doesn't matter to ME. I care about having my fix, upstreamed or not.

1. Canadian salaries are a joke. Senior software engineers make 85k in Vancouver and housing is as expensive as SF.
2. Canadians think their health care system is pretty good because they haven't experienced a good private system. My wife is from Vancouver and thought that until she tried the American system (assuming you're insured). Her friends have long waits for OBs and almost no family doctor is taking new patients. Further, my uncle had a 6 month wait for chemo and had to go to Detroit to get it (about 15 years ago, don't know if it's better now).

> Steps 5..41: have an angry and emotional discussion with the devs who refuse to accept your PR because broken binary compatibility / regression tests / coding style / your choice of variable names etc. Fix all these issues and resubmit the PR until it's accepted.

As a maintainer, I can completely see where you're coming from here and some of nits that I have against PRs probably seem quite trivial. However, if you have a fairly large project then as a maintainer the onus is on us to make sure that things don't break (and that the project remains manageable). Not to mention that the argument people use (that we should just make a follow-up commit that fixes the PR so it's actually acceptable) doesn't _really_ work if you're someone who has to do bisects often -- I'm not going to merge code that is clearly wrong in several places (unless the code is returning a "not implemented" error).

It's not a pride thing, as maintainers we have much less time than the contributors (there are fewer of us than there are of you) so we can't carry every PR that someone drops on our issue tracker.

Of course, for runC we have automated testing that verifies that things like golint and gofmt succeed (so we don't have to waste time going back-and-forth with contributors about it). Lots of smaller projects don't do this, which leads to nothing but annoyances for contributors.

Also, in general when reviewing a change I try to state whether or not the idea is sound. If I am commenting on your choice of variables or how you've structured your algorithm, that means that I like the idea (and is an implicit "I will merge this once you fix <these set of nits>"). Not all maintainers do this, but most learn to do this quite quickly.

I never actually assumed that. The scientific method applies to systems which have a set of observables. Social science is not a second class citizen to natural science, as both society and nature are systems which can be observed. Therefore, it seems more prudent to ask "why" (i.e. applying the scientific method, or some more general inquisitive process) Half A and Half B disagree rather than simply assuming one half is correct and moving on. In the latter case, there is no learning.
It's totally random but I read a paper in ML with the same kind of decomposition for the picture. Does someone know it by some chance? I think it was linked to group theory.

I'm both or rather I do things like this:

* Use modern tools to spin up a dev env
* Determine how to monitor and maintain dev and deploy
* Test dev env
* Determine, based on dev and a deep risk assessment how prod will look
* Create prod env
* Determine how to monitor and maintain prod env and deploy (based on your test)
* Test new prod env
* Open up prod env to end users

It's not bloody rocket science - it's Engineering and the steps above hide loads of steps and feedback loops such as a safe upgrade method eg snapshot/clone VM, test, release.

If your product is important to you then you take it seriously and treat it right!

Harvard researchers created solid metallic hydrogen in the lab
To be honest, typo fixes are fairly draining as a maintainer in large projects. Especially if it's a small (one-line) fix.

Yeah, I get that you want to contribute and that's awesome (one of the best things about free software is that everyone can contribute). But the relative benefit of the actual change versus the time-to-check-the-PR and time-to-reach-consensus-with-another-maintainer is quite low in most "typo fix" PRs.

If you're going to make a typo fix PR, please at least run a spell checker on the file that you're doing the typo fix on (and even better run it on the whole repo). Because at least then, your PR has a higher benefit ratio.

That being said, if you still make a typo fix PR I will merge it eventually. Just be aware that I sigh out loud each time I get a notification for typo fix PR, and I will almost certainly put other things higher on my priority list.
I haven't followed the whole Gawker/Thiel/Hogan spectacle very closely. As for Charles J. Harder representing Hogan, Ayyudurai, and Terrill, if there's an attorney that's known for a particular specialty, it would make sense to seek them out if you'd like to bring a similar case. So, while it may not be coincidence that he's representing all three, it doesn't necessarily mean that that two or more of them are being funded by Thiel. Doesn't rule it out, either.

Edit to add qualification: It isn't/wasn't my intent to turn this into a Thiel/Gawker thing like the many we've had on HN over the past weeks. It was only to float the idea that it isn't necessarily all that odd for the same lawyer to be involved in similar lawsuits. Nor to gaslight (a term that I've recently learned after reading enough comments here on HN). Like I said, I'm really ignorant about all of this and should have done more research to see what's actually been said. No more from me on this.
I really appreciate having your voice in this discussion, dang. I wouldn't want to see the OPs contribution downvoted to oblivion, but I was put off by the lack of contrary viewpoints. I was hoping there would be others bearing the flag of reason.

Regarding having the opinion expressed for all to see instead of hiding or downvoting it, I think having it available proves that racism is alive and well even among the more educated. Some people believe we are in a "post racial" society and that is clearly out of ignorance at the least.

A string type for query could look like its making a copy but just steal the pointers to the buffers the original had, then modify the query part of the underlying buffer. It would cost several more pointer copies than doing it the insecure way a smart compiler would probably optimize those away.

>This sort of vague analogy has been a common rhetorical device used by anti-immigrant populists trying to stir up nativist resentment for 150+ years, without any strong evidence that it’s true. I’m calling the specific sentence out for being usually, in my opinion, toxic nonsense.

Toxic nonsense is what happens when people misuse the idea of scientific proof to lend credence to their political beliefs. Again, I'm not talking to the kind of people who are swayed by that kind of thing. I'm discussing a flaw in the structure of your argument you refuse to acknowledge.

Look, nobody believes "scientific proof" in relation to the things where it's really important (global warming, vaccination) anymore because it's been dragged through the mud by people who want to wave the banner of science in defense of some cause which they think is noble but where the quality of evidence just isn't as strong. That's what I'm concerned about. This is Hacker News, there's nobody for me to scare here.

And, deny it or not, you're being personal, and selective in your responses, which makes me feel this has been a rather unproductive conversation.

I've lived in the US for a long time, as well as Canada, and Europe.

Canadian system is 'pretty good' for 95% of needs, and it covers everyone. It's also less than 1/2 the cost of the US system.

I understand that there are long waits for some things - and this is a drawback party of the system, but also just crappy service - and definitely not good.

And yes - you don't get a doctor anymore. It's a problem - but you can go to any clinic (and you can chose, some are better than others) and get service on the spot. You just don't get to see the same person over and over. I agree this is not good.

I don't like 'hard single payer' as we have here in Canada - but some of the advantages cannot be overlooked.

The moment you don't have coverage, or the coverage won't cover you for some things ... then you understand. Most people in the US know of a serious 'health care horror story', whereas in Canada, it's not so bad. You have to wait longer. But for things that require immediate attention, you usually get it.

Again - not saying it's better, just that there are some advantages.

I can't tell if you're trolling or not. Disagreement is the way a society grows. If everyone agreed on everything, we'd be stuck in the dark ages. It's very simple.

I interpret that as don't use X (in this case Docker) with your most essential services. Initially. Get your teeth cut, make some mistakes, establish routines, etc with your internal apps, your low traffic services, etc. Be patient, then once comfortable and confident your start to roll it out to your core, heavily integrated services in production.

Having just come off a year at large(very large) government department that have 100s of core services running in Docker in production, I think the tech is ready, but not sure if every company is ready.
