The focus on automation, and it being called DevOps, is simply an evolution of the work of sysadmins.

I believe you have this exactly backwards.

The problem is that we keep silo'ing everything and inventing new buzzwords and half-assed tech. We can split things into smaller pieces quicker than we could ever staff up.

Nothing has changed since the 80s. The only thing that's different now is that instead of programming in one little pond of a language, now everything you do is programmable. That doesn't mean you need 47 specialists. It means you need to get really good at managing and limiting complexity.

We don't want to split off and evolve roles into newer and even more specialized roles. This is the thing that made deployment and updating so whacked to begin with.

Ha...that makes sense. Ignore everything I said. Though I should say that I definitely have heard that kind of apologia for a terrible environment before.
It's a wider problem with open source in general. Starting a project to build your career is great, but a lot of projects end up with the creator "not having the time to maintain it anymore".

Sure, in the open source world nobody owes anybody anything. And it is the responsibility of the user to choose carefully the libraries he is going to use.

But when asked, creators often refuse to delegate, add contributors with merge rights ... so the project is abandoned and of course the issues accumulate on Github. Or someone forks the project and make it his own then the cycle continue.

That's personally why I stopped using Coffee-script for instance. "J is busy" was often used as an excuse to let things rot for 2 years... except it's a fn programming language people depend on... so busy J needs to delegate or give stewardship of the project to someone who has the time ...

It's obvious to me that a corporation backed or foundation backed opensource project is always preferable to one lead by a single person that will sooner or later abandon the whole thing.
HaskellBook.com will teach you quite a number of them. :)

The Reddits for the different functional programming languages are a good place to hangout (and a frequent source of blogs and videos on these topics), and for FP in non-FP languages, there are good Github communities (e.g. http://github.com/fantasyland/, no association with FIOL).

I'd also humbly suggest that LambdaConf 2017 (May 25-27) is a great place to learn more about functional programming. There will be a special two-day LambdaConf workshop prior to the conference that introduces the basics of functional programming (no background knowledge), another that is aimed at a slightly more experience audience, and then at the subsequent conference, plenty of workshops and sessions to learn many of these topics (and others).

It's a journey, but everyone can get there if they have the interest. Most of the resources out there (blogs, videos, even e-books) are free, and the remainder are low-cost if you are already working in tech.

Good luck and please just let any of us lurker functional programmers know if you need a hand. :)
>>I get what your saying but humans are humans, journalists are busy and security is a pain for most people (until they need it).

...until they see they need it.

Sad, as most people may not even know that they need to go to these kind of depths. For them, TBB seems more than enough.
The issues this group has chosen to focus on--global warming and the release of endocrine disruptors into the environment--are ones where the damage is exceedingly difficult to undo once done. In contrast, a current lack of investment in GMOs does nothing to prevent GMO development in the future. (How often do you hear someone describe decreased development of GMOs as a "crisis"?) So there are perfectly defensible reasons for them to prioritize global warming and endocrine disruption over GMOs, and no basis in this document for an accusation that this group is acting from purely political motives (for which you cite no evidence beyond the absence of GMOs from their agenda).
You can have multiple routers. Sure, if your edge router is getting DDOS'd, you can't get to the internet, but your intranet services will still work.
> Is this why Silicon Valley is allergic to the phrase 'systems administrator'

There is no need for 'systems administrator' in the Silicon Valley.

The systems administrators are the guys who buy the desktop computers, setup windows, and kinda manage the active directory.

DevOps/SRE names exist because the tech scene had to stop the confusion between the hardcore linux admins who can code and the dude who can setup your desktop computer. The first is needed in dev companies mostly located in the tech hubs, the second is needed in most companies all around the world. The two have very little in common.
This sounds like a cool idea! I think it's a shame it's not scalable on the iPhone. :(

Hey no worries....a few things.

-Umbrella on iOS is coming in 2nd quarter of next year! Whoohoo (We get asked about this all the time).

-The main reason that we and a number of other open-source projects built on Android first is that because is by far the dominant smartphone platform. Especially in developing areas with significant human rights problems like China, Russia, parts of Africa and Asia. Mainly because the cost of Android phones is low.

-On the security specific question. I think the Android vs iOS debate has evolved. A few years ago it was felt that the open-source(ish) and customisation aspects of the Android platform meant that it was the more obvious choice for a secure phone.

I think that what we have seen recently, with tens of millions of Android phones not getting updates etc - has probably challenged that[1]. Especially when iOS now has encryption as standard and other security features. Of course there are Android options like Copperhead/F-Droid/Guardian Project which are examples of how you can retake control to a certain extent, but I think for the average person's threat model iOS is probably pulling ahead on the security side of things.

Yes, the process trade offs are not so good if you want embedded flash. You need a process that can withstand the high voltages for flash erase, which means thick oxides and slow transistors.

At 320Mhz, you should have icache and paged code. A process that can clock this high should have no problem with RAM densities to offer more than 16kB. Better to mirror what the entire industry does: low clock speed and embedded flash, or better process with faster clocks, more RAM and external flash.

Quad SPI NOR is still SPI, which requires serial timings. You need to serialize address and data with each transaction. Parallel NOR has parallel address and data, and an order of magnitude improved throughput and latency.

There is really no point to 320Mhz with such slow code memory.
Well, it's all about risk assessment. Curl has had RCE security bugs before[1]. That doesn't mean curl is "downright dangerous" it just means that "it's safe because it doesn't pipe to sh" is also not a correct thing to say.

For large animals, I'd believe that it's very rare to have non-fatal injuries that are large enough where regeneration would make a big difference to future life.

According to evolution (which hasn't yet noticed medicine), if something rips off your foot, that's not an injury, you simply bleed to death or die of infection even if you win the fight - unlike, say, various small regenerating lizards. What selective pressure could there be to regenerate feet if there were almost no (alive) people with missing feet until the last few hundred years?

However, risk of cancer is serious selective pressure even with short lives - e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil_facial_tumour_disease. Cancer tends to be the "last thing that kills you" exactly because so much of our biology is tuned to resist cancer. Also, all kinds of mechanisms causing our aging problems seem to be simply evolutionary adaptations to resist cancer by limiting cell division.
The interesting studies are all in zebrafish and salamanders, not worms.

One of the more intriguing of the recent ones is this from last year, strongly reinforcing the theory that most species lost proficient regeneration due to evolutionary battles between cancer and aging. The greater question is perhaps why there are any proficient regenerators among the vertebrates rather than why we can't do it.

https://www.ucsf.edu/news/2015/11/251746/human-gene-prevents...

"Whether the regenerative powers of zebrafish and salamanders represent ancient abilities that mammals have lost, perhaps in exchange for advanced tumor-suppression systems remains an open question for biologists. Most tumor suppressor genes, being extremely useful for preventing cancer and for forming tissues during development, are broadly distributed and conserved across many different species. Recent studies, however, suggest that one, the ARF gene, arose more recently in the avian and mammalian lineage, and has no equivalent in the genomes of highly regenerative animals. To explore whether this gene might play a role in preventing tissue regeneration in humans, the researchers added human ARF to the zebrafish genome and assessed how it affected the fishes' normal ability to regrow damaged fins after injury. They found that human ARF had no effect on the fishes' normal development or response to superficial injury, but when the researchers trimmed off the tip of a fish's tail fin, the gene became strongly activated and almost completely prevented fin regrowth by activating a conserved tumor-blocking pathway."

I've never understood the Tails threat model, and this comment does not really help. You say that it will prevent the attackers from learning any information, except the real IP address of the user. But hiding the IP address of the user is the whole point of Tor.

If you give that up, then what's even the point? The state can simply drive a black van to your house and get the rest of your information at their leisure.
The ability to regenerate body parts and cancer are not inextricably linked. Take the axolotl. It has the ability to regenerate entire limbs. It's also estimated to be a couple orders of magnitude more resistant to cancer than humans.

Not just that, no. Its programming language is godawful, but the tight integration with the Windows API makes it powerful in a way that shell scripts and the like cannot easily match.

By publishing it as an open letter, we get to see the emotion and it brings pressure on the CEO and the company to respond. She doesn't need to share the details of what specifically happened, and indeed she probably should not. Company outsiders aren't in a position to judge what happened anyway.
Has nobody tried putting Gopher and Tor together? Would probably yield slightly better results given how minimalist Gopher is, mostly text based. It might not work as well if you try to have a "community" on Tor, but it would be interesting to know how Gopher works out in Tor if at all?
Clearly you're being downvoted by Teodolfo's sockpuppets.
It says something slightly worrisome about the functional paradigm that "profile, debug, and optimize purely functional code with minimal sacrifice" is considered an expert-level skill.
Cancer is probably selected against to a degree.

At least for most normal healthy males, not dying prematurely of cancer means you've got probably 50 or so years to pass on your genes. If a cancer causing mutation kills you at 30, you may still have the chance to pass on your genes, but you're still being outcompeted in the larger gene pool by those who don't die early and have more children than you. And if not you, then your children who die prematurely may not procreate. Evolution doesn't really have much noticeable effect at the scale of single generations anyways.
It's more than just worms that regenerate body parts. Some salamanders can regenerate whole limbs.

I have a similar experience with AutoCAD where "mash esc repeatedly" means "get out of whatever I was doing," and I do it all the time. But AutoCAD's UI isn't designed to keep your fingers on the home row; it's a weird half-and-half mix of CLI and GUI where your hands will have to move no matter what you do. The inconsistency of whacking the corner with what I know of the rest of vi(m)'s design is what I find weird.

But like I said, not a vim user, so I'm grasping at straws here.

Hah!
Then why isn't Walmart funding it ? doesn't sound like a Walmart project. Of course plenty of OS projects backed by corporations are abandoned. My point is a project backed by a corp has higher chances being maintained in the long run. So that aspect matters to me when I decide to use something or not.
I'd be willing to activate that feature if I was about to die.

You know that the cost of a JD/Kubota/New Holland has to do more with the abuse they can take than the electronics right?

Kubota basically targets that market(Compact Utility Tractor) and geared ones still cost more than a new car before you factor in maintence.
As long as enterprises can will understand that they can get support options for Grafana(on-prem, SaaS, etc.) it just comes down to choosing the most economic option. I see benefit in symmetry for enterprise who has hybrid or still mostly in their datacenter.
Response time guarantees are hard to fulfill even by the big guys. I remember being in a coloc years ago where a power problem took out a row of racks filled mostly with Sun equipment owned by various customers (my small company included). It also caused some impressive damage to a transformer outside.

Even with a Gold support plan with 2 hour guaranteed on-site response, it took nearly 2 days to get our servers replaced and running, but the bigger guys were back up within few hours of the outage. Sun simply didn't have the staff or immediate spares available to move any faster -- their response was still impressive - they brought in an 18 wheeler full of spares the next day.

They ended up giving us some months of free support or something like that to make up for the delayed response.
Me too. I always thought it would have been better if humans' processing cycles (thoughts) were utilised to supplement, validate and expand the Matrix. A sort of automatic, involuntary, unaware Mechanical Turk.
I feel like its easier to get hired for a remote job if you've already worked remotely previously. See if you can whip up a few non-trivial projects of your own and build up a small portfolio, if you haven't already. Then the first step might be taking on a manageable project like building an MVP for someone.

Even taking a project that you worked on in a tutorial, extending it and being able to speak intelligently about your design decisions will help you get a foot in the door on many small projects.
"Its members spread coded hate speech" yeah had to stop nice bias
Forbid procreation for those who chosen immortality. If you decided to spawn children, then free space for them - die. (Or go cryopreservation and be kept in a small box occupying little space. In this case you and your decedents can live in turns: they live for one century while you sleep frozen; next century other way around).
Maybe that's the ticket? The cancer resistance is something that allows the axolotl to also keep regrowing limbs around in the genome?
In the Ethereum ecosystem, we're experimenting with a model for building decentralized foundations to fund open source software. When the Red Cross asks for your money to help disaster victims, your money doesn't actually go to that disaster. It goes to the next one. Similarly, we can build organizations that use the volunteer work they're already doing as fundraising campaigns so they can spend it to fund contract work once they've collected enough.

Most work gets done within organizations because we know how to use them to build economic power. If we want to get things done outside of formal organizations, we need to figure out how to build economic power from scratch. That's what Benefactory is about.

Perhaps it could be turned on and off as needed: lose a finger in an accident, and take a drug to turn regeneration on. Grow your finger back in a week, and then take another drug (or stop taking the first drug) to go back to normal.

The Internet Archive wants to copy its collection in Canada because of Trump
Thanks! That's mostly what I suspected. Android does have massive market share outside of North America, but here it is much closer to 50/50. Obviously our security/privacy concerns are drastically different than those in other parts of the world so it makes sense to secure android first.

It's hard to recommend alternative distributions of android to most people. I feel like it's similar to linux 15 years ago, it CAN be more secure, but it can also be incredibly insecure if setup improperly. And if you are just going to go install playstore and google apps, was anything really accomplished?
I'm no Trump supporter but this piece is brutal in its implicit bias. Essentially, "free speech should not be enjoyed by those that hold the wrong opinion!"
