There is a great fear of Multicast from many network engineers I talk to. This comes from at its core, it being too easy to create cycles. At the internet scale the potential for cycles would be even higher, b/c the TTL needed would have to be on the order of ~20-30 hops, and many engineers will just set this number too high.

Now I don't have experience with Source-specific Multicast, which is supposed to resolve the cycle problem, but I think there remains a lot of fear of Multicast in the industry.

Can anyone else comment on cycle issues?

Also, in terms of scaling, Multicast requires of copy of the packet on the router to every port which is registered as a listener to a Multicast address, this will increase load on the larger routers.

This is hardly novel. Plenty of secondary activities are also crimes. In most places in the US, possession of burglar's tools is illegal. Contributory copyright infringement is when somebody "with knowledge of the infringing activity, induces, causes, or materially contributes". Conspiracy to commit a crime is just speech, but it is still a crime.

Gaming is something that a) a lot of people care about, and b) is big business. People manufacturing and distributing cheating tools harms that. The whole purpose of the law is to prevent societal harm, and a great deal of law is about eliminating parasitic activity to keep systems healthy. E.g., with the adoption of electronic communication, we had to invent wire fraud laws to keep up.

When it was just us coding in our basements, we could pretend that software was harmless. But as software eats the world, our work becomes just as important and meaningful as people working with atoms. We want the world to take software seriously, but that doesn't happen half way. We can take credit for serious benefits, but we also have to take responsibility for the serious harm.
>> I do have a problem with people portraying a totally fake and unrealistic life as a reality.

Knowing the real nature of life and your fellow human beings may have some undesired side effects. It may need a greatness of mind for not stopping to love them. Be careful what you wish for.

Sometimes it is better letting people to show a fake and unrealistic picture and acting the fool letting they think you belive what you see.

I like to think of OSM as striving be as complete and as accurate as possible. So I believe every correct piece of data should be added.
Windows phones already do this, less development tools. Its cool because e.g. Word mobile has the desktop and phone UI in the same package and presents itself appropriately.

I would be surprised if, with more competitive Intel chips or x86 on ARM emulation (the latter of this is in the works afaik), this didn't happen sooner or later.
Hey now, at least the naming hierarchy makes sense. My favorite example is finance, where VP is such a meaningless title that Goldman Sachs argued in court that it doesn't carry any weight.

Learning to Generate Images of Outdoor Scenes
Sounds like a "Tech Lead" that is a skilled mediator that gets the whole team onboard the right decision and at the same time a skilled coach that can explain the relevant part of the bigger picture to the juniors and how it relates to the decision at hand.

My takeaway from the article is that these two roles in a well functioning team can be two people and also different people depending on the problem.

SEEKING WORK

Location: Rotterdam, The Netherlands

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: No

Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rolanddeboo

The last 3 years I have worked for startups. This means I've worn all kind of hats, being team lead, backend engineer, frontend developer, architect, sysadmin, release manager, etc etc. :)
I prefer to work on the backend but can work on the full stack. I'll learn anything if necessary to get the job done.
I have build platforms for IoT solutions, analyzing sensor data in real time.
I also like to work on security aspects of a system; I've done a lot of that recently.

Looking for interesting projects, preferably related to sensor networks / machine learning.

Language: Java (well familiar with the ecosystem; Jersey, Jackson, Joda, Guava, Dropwizard, Mvn, etc)

Databases: MySQL, Redis, Cassandra.

Sysadmin: Linux, bash, configuration management with Ansible, clouds (AWS, Digital Ocean, Google)

CI: Jenkins

Frontend: Javascript, HTML, Angular (1)

Other: nginx, rabbitmq, messaging in general.
InfernoJS – A JavaScript library for building powerful user interfaces
To me the pipeline is not about "women entering the field". It's about fixing the whole pipeline from the beginning — getting a more diverse group started with tech and computers early, say elementary school, and then seeing (hopefully a high percentage of) those groups go on to eventually enter the field professionally. And just like an accelerator reaching successful exits, this whole process takes a long amount of time and we are only right in the middle of it.
A programming language and toolset that could transpile to human readable code for just about every popular/mainstream language out there. The closest I've seen is Haxe. This would be great for sharing business logic between different platforms. Right now it's a fragmented mess of tools of various quality, many using regexes to get you only 90% there. For example pretty much everything can transpile very well to Javascript, so no problem there. But what if I want to write common code for iOS, Android, and the web? I've never figured out a good solution here besides contortions with C/C++ or Javascript that introduced more problems than it was worth. Either that or you have to go all-in with a big framework like Xamarin.

I think part of the problem is that there isn't a demand, and, if I may rant a little, the reason there isn't a demand is that most developers do not separate business logic and platform-specific stuff (rendering, I/O, etc.) in the first place, whether from lack of skill/experience (which everyone including me is guilty of early in their careers), or the fact that the framework/platform you're working in "discourages" it.
There will always be smaller price fluctuations than the long-term trend. I'm not sure why you think a log scale is a better comparison either. Note I wasn't just comparing the shape of the curves, the actual descriptions of the hype cycle match the bitcoin story fairly well. Anyway it was just a curiosity, eyeballing price charts and thinking you see meaning is a time-tested method for being wrong...
I don't understand. If you already are planning on using it with 3 monitors, what is the advantage of making it so portable? Why not just leave a slightly larger device where the monitors are and use the small device as storage / boot disk?
I've used to program using a vm in the past, I chose to use hyper-v because it's already available for installation in windows 10 so I thought it could give me a little more on performance side comparing to virtualbox. Although hyper-v is more difficult to setup, it works.

My friend is a good Ayurvedic doctor. As per Ayurvedic diagnosis and treatment - root cause of most disorders point to improper digestion and accumulation of 'ama' (no English translation although some people say toxins for lack of better word). Practically all Ayurvedic treatments have diet guidelines to be followed with treatment.

I've seen some remarkable healing and recovery in people. But diagnosis and treatment is a specialized skill. Many modern Ayurvedic doctors also use allopathic diagnosis and reports in conjunction with pulse and other Ayurvedic diagnosis.
Been doing it for a while now. I mostly use the terminal, vim and a lightweight window manager i3 in VirtualBox on a desktop machine. I never do file sharing. Tried Samba and others. Was problematic.

Another option if you use mostly the terminal is to ssh (PuTTy) into a VPS box for development using vim + tmux. That's my fallback when I'm not on my desktop or traveling.
With the exception of the one block stretch between Pine and Liberty, Nassau street doesn't have parking on both sides of the street. In fact when you get to Pine there's a security barrier and there no parking or cars allowed - all the way past the stock exchange.

For those who don't know how ridiculously narrow the streets are down there this a typical stretch of Nassau Street:

https://www.nybits.com/images/photo/nassau_street_01.jpg

So how do deliveries work to businesses on Nassau Street when you eliminate parking? They don't matter? What happens to the price of goods when their delivery becomes much more expensive? The block that does have parking on both sides of the street on Nassau is used extensively for deliveries. In fact if you do a Google Street view of it you will see a Fed Ex truck parked there. Arguably an important thing in an area that is largely financial companies and law offices.
So if you do take steps to prevent the bottle from uncrushing would it work then? Some sort of a simple vice, perhaps?
It's great. I do it every day: Headless ubuntu image that I then use Cygwin's X server to SSH into and run xfce4-terminal.

Only disappointment has been my laptop's decreasing stability at the windows level... but I can't blame that on linux or running a VM :D

Edit: I applaud the downvoter of this comment.
Well that's the point that Matthew has been making all these years. The problem is that Canonical say "you must remove and replace the Trademarks and will need to recompile the source code to create your own binaries", no matter whether the use of the trademark is infringing (neither Matthew nor I have an argument with that, they need to protect their trademarks) or not (this is where they use copyright law to require removal of the trademark, even if trademark law wouldn't require it).

Nobody's arguing that you should be allowed to take an Ubuntu image, mess it up, and distribute the result under the name Ubuntu. That would clearly infringe on Canonical's trademarks.
As a Tech Lead on my current project I see my role as that of the mediator many times. But something interesting I've found in my current role is that I have to extract opinions from my team. They are great developers but they are quiet so I have to pull them aside and get their feedback. I have to let them know why we are doing what we are doing.

I'd argue that a great Tech Lead (which I am not) encourages his team to work together better all while guiding them around common project pitfalls so that they don't make massive mistakes in direction. He also needs to be able to make every voice on his team heard. This has been really hard for me, and every time someone expresses an opinion contrary to mine I end up having to stop my knee jerk reaction to shoot them down. Because my team needs differing opinions.

I think my biggest personal win has been getting one of our quiet developers who doesn't have the best grasp of English to speak more and feel respected (I hope).

To be fully up front my team is 100% contract developers other than me, so I also have to let them know that I personally do not see them as contractors. They have just as much buy in to this project. If they don't like the design, I'll listen and we can discuss it as a team as long as there is a proposed alternative.
I think if i was going to life indefinitely i would want to ensure the society around me is strong ,stable , healthy and happy to protect myself.
Well yes :D I really like aggregators as for me great part of the experience is the community, reading the comments, so I wanted a place where I can do this for the different aggregators
Obviously not every HN user has the same perspective, but there are broad tendencies. HN is not a random sampling of mankind.

If product A is praised for doing something while product B is unanimously condemned for doing the exact same thing in another country, it is reasonable to point that out.

Plenty of people were eager to point out that Facebook censoring fake news wouldn't really be censorship, because it is not being done by the government but by a private company. Of course, that's exactly how it works in China. So where are all of those people on this story, pointing out that what Wechat does isn't really censorship and that this really isn't really a free speech issue?

Longform has a particularly attractive feature that restores your spot in a page when iOS terminates the app. Longform and Panda and Redef are all incredibly useful without customizing them.

If what you say is true (that at least some members of the royal family are moderates who would change things for the better if they could), then it seems to me we should be broadcasting harsh criticism of the current policies to sway more voices rather than talk about how they're not all bad and what not.
I guess.

I just like the idea that, if I am contracting in a couple of different places, have one of these setups in each one, rock up with my phone and boom!
So, you want Ubuntu convergence?
I think it would simplify things. All you need to remember is:

/ = normal division

_/ = division then round down

Then the compiler enforces all the hard-to-remember rules, i.e. that you can't to normal division on integers. Floats would support both.
Until you need to track down a pointer misuse on an UNIX variant that doesn't have something like AddressSanitizer available, and the customer is already pissed off it has taken more than one week to track it down and they keep loosing sales every time the system crashes.

Cheating in an every day game does not benefit you financially or cause harm to other human beings. If this law was limited to eSport tournaments then I can see it being effective.

You also have to accept that not every gamer in Korea is a professional.
I don't think a change like that would happen without people thinking of consequences though.
Yeah I'm with you on this. If someone assumes by one word you mean another word, and by using the other word, you're wrong, well, I think their logic is flawed.
I wish that webcams on laptops had open-source hardware and also a hardware switch, which connects and disconnects the webcam from the laptop (and thanks to open source hardware you can be sure, that the switch has no "back-door"). Turining that switch off and on would be much easier than putting the duct tape off and on all the time.

Similar hardware switch would be useful for cameras and microphones in smartphones. You can never be sure, what your iOS, or Windows Phone, or some modified Android OS is actualy doing.

Part of the problem is a lack of alleys, so delivery trucks have to park in the street and block traffic. If zoning required an off-street loading dock area for all buildings it would start to help as new buildings are built. I'm not sure if that's a rule or not.
But we don't even have insider trading laws. Insider trading is something the courts came up with based on an expanded meaning of fraud.

Anecdotally, that exact graph has been posted on the bitcoin subreddits frequently since 2011, each time fitting the price chart rather well.

On that basis, it's not crazy to imagine that today's long term trend will become tomorrow's fluctuation once more.
If you join BEFORE seed money, and do a bunch of work for free, you can be a cofounder.

If you join AFTER seed money, and get something like a market salary, you are an engineer.

The gray area is the in-between places. If you join before seed money, but only work 1 hour a week (say to help out a buddy), are you a cofounder? I would likely vote no.

Or if you join AFTER seed money, but work for 75% of market rate. Or 50%. At what pay do you appear to be a cofounder vs engineer?

Quoting the article: If someone claims that something is Ubuntu when it isn't, that's probably an infringement of the trademark and it's entirely reasonable for the trademark owner to take action to protect the value associated with their trademark. But Canonical's IP policy goes much further than that - it can be interpreted as meaning[1] that you can't distribute works based on Ubuntu without paying Canonical for the privilege, even if you call it something other than Ubuntu.
I only have an i5 and 6 GB of Ram, so running directly in the VM isn't that good on performance. I just run a linux server as a VM, not a full desktop. It works well for me.

> A well functioning team makes all decisions by consensus, so there are no deadlocks.

no, a well-functioning team empowers and trusts each member to make good decisions independently. those teams also foster psychological safety so that team members don't feel timid for fear of making a mistake. often there is an orchestrator who guides the team by making the more strategic decisions.

a good basketball team exemplifies this. on the san antonio spurs, tony parker, their point guard, makes strategic decisions but every player makes many independent decisions that help the team win together. you can tell they trust each others' decisions and they support esch other through mistakes.
The "free" phone conference service work in a somewhat similar way. There's a fee charged for long distance call even in the US/Canada. The fee is low enough that most people now get free long distance.

The free phone conference services are terminated at tiny little telcos that charge a much higher than normal fee for a north american long distance and the fee is split between the conference service operator and the telco (which may or may not be the same.)

Some of these services cannot be dialed via some VOIP providers (like Google Talk) for that reason.

> Floating point does not behave in a mathematical way

It approximately does. The only common way that newbies would get tripped up is something like (3 * 1/3) != 3. Maybe that is a case for not allowing == operator to operate on floats (use a function/keyword instead), but I think that may be a step too far.
haskell on rails. the amazing static typing, binary compilation, etc of haskell, with a large ecosystem and monolith framework (like rails) behind it. haskell's community's focus on challenging, technical, scientific or mathematical problems has left normal web developers plainly not using it. but as our rails codebase has grown, it's hard to identify refactoring issues outside of obessive and overlapping unit tests.

i think Java actually comes closest to what I want here but unfortunately it's pretty hard to get past all the cruft the ecosystem has accrued over the years, plus it's java and marketing that as a company/developer sucks. also java is missing some expressiveness of haskells TS
