Just one simple example of many: think of all the software services that Tesla needs to do the fancy stuff that they are doing.

There are many car companies right now trying to catch up, building scalable and resilient services, doing analytics, navigation, M2M stuff, emergency services, car rental, lots of stuff.

As someone who's been there, it all depends how hard it was. You can recover from light burnouts quickly (by traveling, taking sports), however, hard burnouts change you for life - you'll be lucky to not end up as alcoholic or drug addict.

For me, it took couple of years and few failed jobs until I got on track. Today, I'm more than happy to be my own boss as freelancer.
Sounds like you are looking for something like FHIR.[1] If you built your app aroun FHIR, you could plug and play with any EHR that implements it.

I think what made ES particularly attractive in the beginning was

- Easier (linux-pks) install and setup a small cluster

- "Just throw some data at it"

- JSON and pure REST

While ES is still more compact and faster/easier to install, Solr has of course grown up with robust SolrCloud scaling, start scripts, schemaless mode and all the config APIs.

And I think the change of mindset from files to APIs is crucial. Your search engine should be like a DB, just install it and then start using it from a client. Your schema stays close to your data in your app where it belongs.

A few next important steps for Solr which are being worked on are

- New set of APIs /v2/ that gives a more unified experience

- More analyzers/tokenfilters/components configurable via
APIs

- Easier getting-started with basic auth and SSL, add LDAP and more

- Mature the streaming/SQL stuff

All in all, the competition drives both products to new hights every year!

> You're some random on HN.

> I think you need to stop talking and start listening

That's not really an appropriate way to approach a conversation on HN. I'm surprised this comment hasn't been flagged.

Personally, I think you would benefit from incorporating non-violent communication strategies. It's fine that you respect someone's work. It's not okay to open with "You're some random on HN" and then tell them to shut up, just because they were questioning the person you admire. Especially since I wasn't telling them they were wrong, but rather that the disagreement was one of scope and context, not one side being right while the other being wrong.

http://qz.com/838321/nonviolent-communication-the-scientific...

By dismissing people's entire existence and expertise right out of the gate, you destroy any possibility of a constructive conversation that could follow.

If you'll notice: Until now, I mostly asked people questions. Regardless of whatever background I may have with cryptography, my interest in these discussions is to learn. Probably not the ideal target to call a nobody and to shut up if you're interested in the strength of a community.

Just some food for thought.

Congratulations! You have discovered network programming that was described

Yes, the problem is ARM.

How do you want to boot your kernel? There is no BIOS or UEFI or other standardized firmware, that would initialize at least one CPU, RAM, storage and load your kernel from there. Every ARM implementation boots in different way.

After you boot up, how do you enumerate devices that your kernel can use? There is no PCIE or other plug and play bus, that can enumerate attached devices. Your OS has to know what is available. Poke a wrong port and your board freezes. This is the reason, why Device Tree is a thing.

Linux kernel does not require all drivers baked in - kernel modules existed for decades already. Monolithic does not mean that everything is one big blob. NT is also monolithic, for example.
Someone is threatening to sue me – Please help
I started a tech startup with a close friend, and 2 older friends of my father.

The idea was that my friend and I would build the project and provide the financing (100K). They would provide the sales network and the business savvy - and for that they'd get 50%.

Over the next few months I built version 1.0 of the product (cloud SaaS). I'd never built a website before so there was a huge learning curve.

At this point the product was "on the market" - though I was simultaneously adding new features and improving it. They soon started to ask for me to sign the share holders agreement and fork up the 100K. I was getting cold feet due to lack of any sales whatsoever.

We hit our first cross-roads, I threatened to walk away with my code. They said the code also belonged to them and that they'd sue me if I tried. I accepted that even though we hadn't formally signed anything - there was certainly an informal agreement made. Thus I relented and we agreed that they would finance the first 25K if I surrendered some of my equity.

I'm now well below 50% - continuing to build the project. By about 1 year in, we'd had only 2 sales (probably about 4-5K total profit). There were constant promises of massive leads/sales just around the corner - but they never seemed to materialise.

My friend and I were getting fed up with the situation. I had a previously very high paying job - and I was doing this for free for a year. My friend was fresh out of uni and also not getting paid.

The snapping point was when they suggested appointing a "head of sales" - who would need 20% equity - obviously causing a further dilution.

It was at this point that my friend and I decided that we wanted out. Our equity was already low (pre any sorted of serious funding), we were getting no salary and the business wasn't making any money.

Of course not. But the math is pretty simple. More and bigger waves, more and bigger storms on the coasts. The sea level will rise slowly, but surely. It will take 100+ years, but it'll rise by at least 10 meters, of course if we don't do something against it. And it's not impossible to build dikes and levees, but they'd look like huge hills on the shore. Not so bad, we have plenty of time to move a lot of dirt, but maybe a few people would spend that on preventing sea level rise instead.
I think there is no point, but if someone uses only web interface this might be valuable.

True. I've never thought of a work spouse as something intentionally chosen either, though. And the term isn't used by everyone in the room to describe everyone else. We sometimes say "work coworker" as a joke to describe aloof/standoffish peers.

When you say its hard to pull people away, I think its because they have their belief/bias tuned to that source, not only toward the facts in the article.
Then you are dealing with a conflicting thought that goes against the cumulative statements that have been asserted by that source and agreed/verified by the listener. Thus further strengthening the belief/bias of the listener to that source.

Again, I'm speaking personally, I'm aware other people have different experiences and different opinions. That said:

Work is not the most important thing in my life. A friend is a person who is meaningful to me outside of work. A work friend is someone who is meaningful to me only at work. I can be friends with someone from work, but that is quite a shift that I haven't made with many people.

A work spouse is someone I'm quite a bit closer to than a work friend, but that person still isn't a friend in the meaning I ascribe to the term.

I talk to work friends about what movies we've seen, which browser we prefer, who has the most annoying laugh in the office, whatever. But we don't generally talk about how we expect our reviews to go, what teams we'd like to manage, etc.

Conversely, I do talk about that stuff with my work wife. If I'm not sure about how best to convey that I think an assignment is a waste of time, I talk it over with her, not with the guy on the fifth floor I exchange TV show reviews with.

I like my work wife quite a bit, and I value her opinions and trust her with mine, but we've never been to each other's home. We don't make plans for weekend outings. We've never seen each other drunk. She's not a friend. If she leaves the company, I probably won't keep in touch. Part of the point of a work spouse is the shared experience of the place of employment. That's why it's "work" spouse and not "professional" spouse.

I could see a work spouse becoming a close friend, sure. But one doesn't imply the other.

I think it's of interest now because you have a direct cause-and-effect scenario in place (e.g. fake news having some effect on the outcome of a US election). Beforehand, most people would have assumed that the fake news industry simply pandered to the conspiratorial crowd without any repercussions. It was harmless...not to be taken seriously. However, now we can see real consequences, which makes for a worthy story IMO.
We should look at this as it really is: Russia is super paranoid, and increasingly isolationist. Putin is also realizing that all of his technology comes from western companies, and they are trying to build their own, so that they aren't so reliant on Cisco routers, Intel CPUs, and Apple smartphones.

This will be a russian OS, designed to allow russian companies to buy routers, switches, and firewalls that are not made by western companies.

It has to scare the shit out of russia to think that if they did have a war with the west, they would lose their access to the technology needed to run their businesses. This is a first step towards trying to build some type of technological independence from the west.

>There has to be proven documentation that the software functions correctly and does not endanger people or data.

Regulators are not sitting behind your engineers making sure every line of code is tested though. Documentation in this area would basically be QA documenting testing with pass/fail which is going to be similar in other enterprise projects with a QA department. You get functionality testing with, for example, prescription of controlled substances, but they are not reviewing the code for vulnerabilities or any sort of proof.

In more than one instance, I've seen updates from EMR vendors have needed hotfixes after they find some critical bug. This is pushed to production the next day so even if regulators were reviewing code, they couldn't review it that fast.

>Most hospitals and open source enthusiasts do not have the time, money and expertise to do these things.

The trouble for open source contributors is knowing what the demands of doctors/nurses are. Most EMRs have common functionality but workflows are incredibly varied between hospitals. This is not an industry where the software controls or teaches the workflow. Providers can and often ask for custom stuff built to handle their particular needs at the expense of the code base.

However, once you know these workflows, the code behind them is not that difficult technically for today's tools and methods.

The technical challenges facing certain EMRs today (that I have experience with) are really scaling issues. Most of the enterprise EMRs started a long time ago, so they are running into issues with bad design that needs patchwork fixes. Plus not blocking the UI thread for most operations.
The origin story of Google Analytics
> what if the hardware is much-much smaller (IoT) and task to perform is well defined?

Anything IoT needs a full network stack at least, and usually a set of radio drivers for WiFi, 6lowpan, Zigbee, Bluetooth or whatever. That usually amounts to quite a lot of software, which in the case of the radio stuff is often proprietary and patent-encumbered.

Asking the hardware vendors is a dead end. You might as well ask for a pony while you're at it, you're not going to get it either.

"Verified libraries" would necessarily be written against a particular OS interface and its guarantees. I'm not even sure how this process would work in terms of formal verification; even sel4 is forced to make assumptions about hardware.

The reason why you get bad Linux ports with no source and universal default passwords is simply cost. Customers do not incorporate security into their purchasing decisions - or they wouldn't buy these things - so this is what we get.

> it looks like it's just using Keccak as a stream cipher of sorts (but seeding it from /dev/urandom). That's pretty ok, and if we don't trust stream ciphers to produce pseudorandom numbers we have much bigger issues.

Don't "seed a userspace RNG from urandom". Just use urandom.

The level of involvement you have with a work spouse is something you choose to create. No one is dictating the terms of the relationship. Management can assign you to a team and give you teammates, but they can't say that this person or that person is your work spouse. You decide whom to confide in.
