> It looks like it just made the cut for Sierra

I honestly highly doubt that. As I indicated in my post, there's very little new instructions / capabilities in Haswell and newer cores outside TDP reductions for a general purpose OS. There's a couple new AVX instructions and some crypto instructions, but outside that, I can't think of much (admittedly I'm no expert though) that macOS would need that would warrant cutting support.
> You are trying to build Go in a way it wasn't designed for.

Yeah, I think his issue is with Go's choice to not search the current directory.

The go tools should let you use the current directory, and the "best practice" would have been vendoring to start, relative to the current directory. Then suddenly you see no GOPATH would be necessary at all! For example:

% mkdir $proj
% go get github.com/$dep1
% go get github.com/$dep2
% vim main.go
% find .
./main.go
./github.com
./github.com/$dep1
./github.com/$dep1/somepkg
./github.com/$dep2
...

See, then main can import github.com/$dep1/somepkg, and it would be properly versioned and vendored! It falls out in a bunch of other ways of being nicer too IMO.

The currently GOPATH design encourages untracked and complected dependencies, where we're at 1.8 of the toolchain and we're still changing packaging behavior of dependencies.
The issue was about clarifying what "first-class" meant more than about changing how we treat FreeBSD.
Usually they let DNS resolve normally (because intercepting at this level will break the website even after you've satisfied the captive portal) and intercept any HTTP connections, responding with a temporary redirect to a controlled domain. Doing this with a mere DNS server will only work if you don't visit the website you initially tried to access for a while after you connect. It's also super easy to bypass; just pick a public DNS server instead of the one the network tries to assign to you.

To do this properly either your router or switch/AP need to be configured to do the necessary rewriting as well as maintain a list of authenticated clients. Your best bet to do this with something in the consumer(ish) price range without a custom firmware like OpenWRT is something like a Uni-Fi access point which can handle the captive portal interception itself.

The real issue is why public education charges tuition at all. Education through high school is (for now) free. It used to be that a high school diploma was considered perfectly adequate to prepare a student to be a responsible citizen. Society benefited by funding that baseline.

Now the mantra is that "college is the new high school" -- if you don't have a postsecondary credential you're essentially unemployable. If that's the case, should't society's calculus extend to the public funding of a solid undergraduate education?

It's no different from public funding of preventative care (e.g. inoculations) and fixing the roads.
Operational complexity at scale and prior experience with it. It is one thing to run one instance system and completely different story to run a clustered setup for large amounts of data with performance consideration.

Uber wrote a very good article about their switch, for them it was more about performance, though a little bit controversial.
Apple’s statement on the Consumer Reports battery test
No one's questioning the claim that research shows there's a connection. You're being rejected because you claimed it was a 100%, if-and-only-if connection. Even if depression is frequently caused by brain inflammation, it is definitely not the case that current science shows depression is always (or always minus epsilon) caused by brain inflammation, so what you said is still wrong.

No one's trying to make you question the validity of your senses. You just need to make claims that are corroborated by reality, at least approximately. It's fine to say there's a connection. It's not fine to say that depression is always caused by brain inflammation, and if you try to do that you'll be downvoted and ignored unless you make an extremely compelling argument (which you didn't).

Based on the research I've perused from google / your references, if you matter-of-factly claimed that some depression is caused by inflammation (or causes brain inflammation? how to tell?) you'd be fine. But to claim depression as a whole -- all of it -- is caused by inflammation? that's still wildly unscientific.

Its not, it just happens to be good enough, which matters a lot for operational expertise/costs/etc.

Zoning controls single and multi unit housing, but the "apartment building" that consists of just rentals is an American thing unrelated to that. In fact, one can convert apartments to condos if one wants (assuming rent control is not an issue). The developers alternate between doing condo and apartment projects, I guess the distinction is important when projects are approved individually, but you can't set that bias in zoning!

The US is not alone in large developers doing large projects. There is nothing else in china, though almost all (if not all) projects are unit for sale (that can and are rented out by the buyer).

Individual units aren't really that common in Europe either, especially in cities (I lived in Lausanne for 2 years also). At best you might have (what the USA calls) duplexes in all but the ritziest of areas. Most of the buildings were fairly large multi unit housing that must have been done by a largish developer at some point; then it is only a matter to deal with the gerrance to do the rental.....

The US is weird in its fixation on detached housing, for sure.

As the article says, there are plenty of solutions for these problems, individually.

The predicament, as a whole, is that we cannot afford them.

Infrastructure quality is, like so many things, directly proportionate to investment. You can trade off future maintenance by spending more initially, or vice versa, but you can't magically reduce both at the same time while providing the same level of service.

This is precisely the same problem as Terry Pratchett talked about in the boots theory of economics: http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/72745-the-reason-that-the-ri...

The problem is that the level of economic productivity supported by (for example) a strip mall is so low that it cannot support the ongoing maintenance of the infrastructure that is required to allow it to exist. This is also true for many suburban homes and office buildings.

You must either extract more productive value from the same land area and population, reduce service quality, or invest massive quantities of capital in maintenance cost reduction, which has virtually the same effect as either of the previous.

Why not just ignore the money and work like anyone else (not being sarcastic, being serious). You'll have resources if it all causes problems, or to modulate around the edges (pay cash for your home, take slightly nicer vacations than you and your spouse might otherwise have done, have a full time nanny when the kids are small).

I've sold some companies here in the Valley and I've noticed that the most fun people to hang out with do the same old stuff as everyone else (scout troops, poker, skiing, writing code, etc). If you're biking with your buddies does it matter how much money any of you have? If you have kids they'll be easier to raise and will themselves have more fun if they're just like their classmates. Even at Paly (Palo Alto High School) there's a mix of kids whose families have little (yes, even some getting food stamps) and kids whose parents have private jets. Don't you want your kids to have the maximum set of possible friends? If you live it, they will too.

Yeah, and on analog platforms you have serious problems with accumulating. Good luck doing a 100x100 matrix times a 100x500 matrix on an analog system, which is the sort of thing you need for machine learning.

Automatic differentiation is usually very little overhead. Think "putting a second set of values through a compiled slightly differently function".

Although there are calculus-related issues like saturation, smoothness of transfer functions, etc. "solving calculus" is not the major problem with machine learning efficiency and throughput. Linear algebra is the main bottleneck.

With a captive portal, your first HTTP request will be redirected to the network's login page or whatever they have. Many large sites now use HTTPS and HSTS and if you visit them once, they will always (or until the max-age header expires) be loaded over HTTPS by your browser.

As a result, many people will be unable to see the network's login page. If you are in this situation, you can load neverssl.com once, log in to the network, then browse normally.
I program a UNISYS 2200 mainframe at work. It uses 1's complement.

Yes, there are two zeros. Not a problem in practice because all arithmetic operations normalize -0 to +0 at no extra cost in execution time, so -0 practially doesn't happen. IIRC from Assembler class, addition is implemented as subtraction of the negative operand. Just in case anyone ever needs it, e.g. for bitmaps, the SZ (store zero) assembler instruction is complemented by a SNZ.

Programming in a high level language, the representation of negative numbers is all but transparent to the programmer. When reading dumps, not having to perform an extra addition (subtraction?) when changing a number's sign is pretty sweet! Also, abs(-MAXINT) == (+MAXINT), reliably. The asymmetry of number ranges always bothered me on 2's complement machines.

What _is_ annoying about the UNISYS boxes is the 36 bit word format, though. Characters are stored in 9 bit quarterwords that map pretty awkwardly to bytes containing 8-bit ASCII. Binary data formats are essentially incompatible with anything.

Because of this, javascript has a +0 and a -0. They make a fun trivia question because there are very few ways to distinguish them since most of the ways of checking equality (even ===) will report that they are equal.

In fact, I only know two ways to distinguish them: divide something by them, and you get positive infinity for +0 and negative infinity for -0, or you can use Object.is(-0, 0) which will return false.

While two's complement is quite clever, it's not an obvious choice when you are building things out of tubes or relays.

One's complement has two very nice properties:

1) the range is symmetric

2) "end-around carry" makes all the bits look identical in terms of implementation

It is extremely useful for an onion address to just define a plain old TCP socket, rather than imply HTTP. An onion address is just that... an anonymous connection to some server, somewhere in the world. While you might be unaware of where the service is operated from, it could be the exact opposite: maybe you just started an ssh server on your desktop and would like to access it remotely where ssh might be monitored or blocked -- despite ssh itself being encrypted, making a connection and the lifespan of the connection tell quite a lot about your habits.
