Yes, and it has always had horrible perf, especially when it came to memory. Standard techniques to reduce memory pressure included never ever instantiating your classes. So basically everything is a static method, and the only data types you can use are primitives, since Java doesn't have structs (exactly the problem that this thread pointed out at the beginning). So people would instead preallocate global arrays of primitives, and referenced their elements by index, if they needed to pass something like a record or an object around.

I use Helm to deploy containers to various environments and clusters in k8s using its gotepl/sprig template system. The last thing that I want to do with my containers is to lock my environment variables inside of them, then I'm going to need multiple sets of containers per microservice (prod, staging, yaddayadda) and have to go through the process of docker commit, push, etc.

Beyond that there are also a lot of Kubernetes specific variables that you want to be able to define before you launch pods. You often need to set namespaces, resource limits, labels, persistentDisks, etc, things that would not be defined in any docker container at all. I also use Helm to template that out.

With Helm you can package the network config (load balancers, services), volumes, secrets, etc very easily. These are things that have nothing to do with the actual docker container lifecycle. There are a lot of kubernetes objects that need to be configured for an actual deployment.
Your point is that because we don't have 11 day traffic jams, means we should be content? We're being unreasonable to want to hours of our lives every week?

True, but it's good to at least have someone deeply technical on the discussion too, just for the ability to come up with generalizations and - after presenting them to the customer - to confirm whether they're sound, or whether the customer has a completely different model in their head.

It's easier to do that with the customer than with the spec - specifications can't talk back to you.

There is no such thing as a modern passenger car with an engine more powerful than the brakes. All cases of "unintentional acceleration" where the driver "could not stop" are cases of driver error: the driver refused to use the brake pedal, or was pressing the gas pedal instead.

The other thing these dummies are forgetting to do, in their panic, is to simply turn off the engine.

To be clear, i don't think my ideas are better - this is merely a discussion.

I do like Camlistore's approach to generic data storage though - ie, there is no organizing files/etc. Of course you can always go back and add metadata, but i treat it like a database dump - which is quite nice.

I think what i need is to find the simplest solution to export/expose the data within camlistore. Then i can encrypt like you are, and be sure that family can get data back out. Hmm, much to think on.

Appreciate the discussion :)
Sure, it's always going to require extra thought, but why create problems when you don't need to? There's this entire train of reasoning that seems to be that a rich interface is one that places as many demands as possible on the human body. That thinking will inevitably lead to problems of this type. If grip isn't necessary, why make it necessary? I could have made a number of objections of this type to the article, but this seems the most obvious and understandable one.

I didn't bother replying to your second reply again because you're completely refusing to even consider that you are missing the point. There's no better way to display that than go full godwin in the middle of a discussion about polarization. Well done.

You're being downvoted because, like I said, you are doing exactly what the article is calling out. And now you're doing more of that bullshit, calling people whose point you don't understand "white angry males".

Normally I'd just think of your nonsense as a waste of time, but in this case it's actually extremely interesting to have you teach us by example.
Only thing I dislike about Lubuntu is losing Mac keyboard shortcuts and hardware, a lot of them I managed to replicate and even found a (slightly unstable) Alfred alternative called Albert [1]. My Magic Mouse 2 could only work like a dumb mouse.

I turned off the tray at the bottom, the window borders and set apps to start full screen, switching between full screen apps was much nicer than what remains after Apple closed off whatever Total Spaces was using. It ended up being a really productive way to work due to the lack of distraction like crap software from Apple, Adobe, 1Password, iTerm etc endlessly begging for 5 minutes so you can watch their updates download. Or all the other notifications that mostly don't need to be read or exist.

Was on a vacation in North Carolina on Ocean Isle Beach. It has been suffering from erosion for years. The North end a very strange place. During high tide people who still haven't left their homes can fish from the porch. The beach further north has chunks of asphalt from where a road used to be.

Some people were paying contractors to pump sand to fill bags and stack them up to potentially save their vacation home for a few more years. Most were vacation homes, so most people wouldn't be left homeless when the water gets to their property, but we did meet and older local woman who lived there permanently. I didn't dare ask what she's planning to do, but I imagine she hoped she would go before the ocean gets her house.

This is hard to read. I volunteer at a crisis center, and just reading the description of how the phone volunteer handled the call made me cringe. In my experience, you don't call the cops just because they call the suicide hotline and have guns - I've experienced instances where callers call and aren't suicidal. I'd need a clear sense of intent before going out of my way to do that. I really hope this was just a one-off thing, and not at all how volunteers (if they are volunteers at all) treat callers on the suicide hotline.

Right on. Can we cut the bullshit about how a wage worker is supposed to care about the customer, the business, or any of that? Does the person working in the drive through at McDonalds care about the customer? Of course not.

Now, if I was a partner in a business with some equity stake, then I would mop the floors if that's what I felt would increase the value of my stake. But as a wage worker, when you tell me to mop the floor, I tell you "that's not my fucking job".

People act in their own self interest. Why is this so god damn difficult to understand? Fuck!

IMO, Fox News is clearly the leading source of ideology, and the WSJ's editorial page, if not their news (though it's owned by the same people as Fox News), is the same ideology repackaged for the 'elite'.

And this is precisely why chickens should be traded on an exchange. It becomes much harder for a person or small group (as in this case) to corner a market and raise prices.

However, here's a good article about why there is no trading in chickens: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2014/01/10/the-c...

Looks like the market has been generally fairly stable and dominated by big players, so there hasn't been a need for producers and consumers to hedge their prices, and therefore a futures market was never formed.

This depends on the particular church. I know that Serbian Orthodox and Russian still officially use the Julian calendar. AFAIK the most of other Orthodox churches like Greek, Romanian, etc. have switched to the Gregorian calendar, e.g. they celebrate Christmas on Dec the 25th, not January the 7th, like Serbs and Russians do (Julian calendar is 13 days behind the Gregorian at the moment).

I recently tried to use Linux (Ubuntu 16.10) as my primary desktop and failed again. I tried yearly since year 2000. But again in late 2016 I switched back to Windows (10) and MacOs. Driver support is getting better but so are my expectations and Linux (well Ubuntu) doesn't seem to catch up fast enough.
For instance I failed having my dual graphic cards be used in extended mode with the my native laptop screen and an external HDMI screen monitor. My bluetooth headset has a hard time being recognized by the OS I have to retry many times. And I cannot have sound through on my monitor connected to HDMI output of my Nvidia graphical card. Maybe I used the wrong distro, but all these issues are non-existent when I switch to Windows 10. Linux desktop is getting better but is still a painful experience when used with non common setup.

Do you have a link to the "VPN has been defeated" documents? Didn't Snowden say exactly, that the only thing to trust is strong encryption?

> ISPs and police will use every mechanism including DNS, HTTP, IP addresses

Surely VPN will protect you from all of that?

My main concern is police/isp's logging all VPN traffic, and then when they want to use some of it, they subpoena your VPN provider for the keys. Though, maybe forward security fixes this?
They could also secretly force every provider to log everything at all time? But surely there are enough providers that some would have leaked it?
As someone involved with Cloud Foundry and really liking the platform (we're adopting it in our own hosting solution) I really wonder what keeps it from going mainstream. Kubernetes for example is doing great but is so much more difficult for developers to work with.

Basically, science is incapable of introspection, at least at this moment in time. But a good scientist will make good science out of any social subject.

Academic scientific activity is still mostly a social activity because it is done through the communities and the social interaction between scientists and institutions. Specific problems may be solved by specific brains or groups of brains, but the output and the collaboration is all social. The rewards and incentives are all social systems. And at the end of the day, any time we write a blog or post a comment, it's all social. This is social.

But the disdain for social sciences by non-social scientists is discrimination only warranted to the extent they can avoid social and professional interactions with them, and feel immune from any criticism for their bigotry. The moment a scientist wishes to study the social aspects of science itself, they have no choice but to accept social science as a science.

But this is okay because reputation has no consequence in problem solving, because reputation is a social device, and not a solvent. The track record of a field, a department of an institution, the history of publications, or the publications of an individual social scientist are all largely irrelevant when faced with your own research targets. The only thing relevant is the available data and the premises chosen for any model. There is no need to criticize the scientific integrity of the work of others if you can do better. Do it yourself if you have to.
Yeah... I learnt this the hard way a couple of weeks back... Sigh...
Honestly, no, I haven't look at it in the last 7 years. (It's being that great! Thanks for lighting-up my day.)

Also honestly, I don't think I should look now. The PHP applications I see around are still the ones getting serious vulnerabilities found every week, the same ones that other communities found ways to pack the solutions into tools and conventions that are easier to use than not to. I also don't see anybody claiming PHP has any new template system to replace the dated original one.

I've seen some progress on the language, but not nearly enough to make it compelling. I have plenty of stuff already on my ToTry list, PHP would have to say something better than "I'm not a complete mess anymore" to enter it.

I came to post this. There is another important detail: Galileo did not contradict scripture (religion), rather he contradicted Aristotle (science). The Catholic church was actually rather interested in science at the time, and were far from the anti-intellectuals that the common narrative makes them seem.
I believe this new gTLD registries will manage it to finally sink their own boat. They are behaving so greedy that this new gTLD will never become popular. But then it wont take long until the first registries will close shop and this will be the end of this whole ngTLD scam. Because nobody will invest money to market a domain which might not exist anymore in a few years.

There are some proposed safeguards built into the rules to prevent this meltdown caused by failing registries. But looking at how the industry currently behaves I don't think the will to stand to the rules and grab as much money as they can and leave the sinking ship asap.

The problem is, that legislation does not actually protect citizen data. All code is still controlled by LinkedIn, and Russian goverment still have no idea what it does. If FBI (or CIA or any other agency) comes to LinkedIn with an order, then does it matter if the technician serving the request pulls the data from Russian, European or US database? The data will be delivered anyway.

Moreover, the law does not actually prevent the companies from storing data somewhere else -- Article 12 mentions many allowed reasons to send the data to other countries.

What this law, however, allows is for government to apply pressure on the company by treating to seize their servers (such as this case:
https://torrentfreak.com/police-shut-down-russian-rapidshare... ). I see no other reason for the law.
