Thank you for sharing this link. Here is a related HN discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7513388

My problem with accessing the low-bandwidth Google tools with archaic browsers (http://dplus-browser.sourceforge.net/, etc.) is that Google still requires the high-bandwith login.

Are you aware of any alternative login URLs or authentication mechanisms?
I don't think they could build their own infrastructure cheaper than Google or Amazon. Both companies have very large scale and have been doing this for quite a time, have custom hardware etc.

For deals of this size, it might make sense for both Google and Amazon to put their margins quite low - as they know the alternative is that Snapchat just builds their own infra. For Google there could be also the PR factor involved.
I was surprised at how well it was implemented. It's a very comprehensive system, and their roadmap for the future is promising too.
I find it odd that this needs to be either a post or something the community talks about. It'd be like an article titled "Local gas station provides gas to Nazis"

Why of course they do. A secular, open society means you can have whatever opinion you like, as long as it is peaceful, and you can participate just like anyone else. How else would you want it?

Modern activists seem quite odd to me. In the states, at least, you have the right for free and open political support to seek redress for your grievances. That is, something's not right about society or the government, so you use persuasion to argue your case to the rest of us.

But that's not what's happening. Instead it looks a lot more like economic warfare. Person A, B, and C are wrong. They must be punished. There's not the usual outreach of persuading others that we've traditionally had. It's much more about being in the right club.
I am very curious why they didn't azure as their cloud partner ? What was wrong about it ? (I am geninunely asking, I am really curious about technical capability of azure vs aws vs gcp vs oracle)
Very thorough research as many breeders will hide genetic inbreeding through confusing naming of sires and bitches.

Source: My father breeds GSDs for maximum diversity. Very few of his dogs suffer hip dysplasia or congenital heart defects.
After the mess up, I don't really like seeing these posts about Gitlab. Maybe this is their problem after all.
Why not use "jk" or "jj"?
I hope I will.

That's not happening, breeders are breeding dogs that uave all sorts of problems and people are buying them in droves.

That's the issue!
It's also easy to remember "F5 ssl ticket vuln" and that conveys more important information. Like the fact only F5 devices are affected so relatively few have to worry about it.
How to make a chatbot intelligent?
Because it's a purely semantic argument (in the literal sense of being an argument about the definition of words). There is no fundamental universal truth underlying whether it's OK to refer to piracy informally as "stealing".
We call that 'marketing to your audience.'
The story of their reaction to the iPhone is a bit more nuanced. It's fleshed out in more detail in the book "Losing the Signal" which is a look at RIMM from it's inception in the 1980s up to around 2013 when their market share had collapsed.

Basically, both Lazaridis and Balsillie agreed that they should downplay the innovation in the iPhone when in public. Internally however, they were scrambling to build a competitor because Verizon told them to. RIMM's business was very heavily tied into US and international carriers and serving enterprise clientele, and none of them had asked for anything like the iPhone, so they just never bothered.
Advertising vs. Subscription
I was just going to ask this.

Silicon valley would be better served (and better serve others) when they stop giving hand service to the same schools they they went to and the people who think and act exactly like them.
Sun is a beautiful case study in what happens when you're a little too aggressive about the "openness" mantra. They bet the farm on SPARC and lost. If they had kept pieces of Solaris closer to chest, who knows what would've happened, but they would've at least had one more potentially-viable commercial offering.

I assume that Microsoft is not going to be naive enough to do the same.

IMO Microsoft's interest in openness revolves around remaining a viable option in the cloud era. They need to protect their investment in the .NET ecosystem and MS-centric development workflow, which means making it easy for people to run .NET programs on *nix-based VPSes and containers.
> They aren't going to just dump it all because you and a few others find the priviledge model inconvenient.

> But, no, it won't allow unchecked IPC...

And I'm not asking for either.

How about just giving the user a simple permission like they have for allowing UWP apps to access your Microphone, Camera, Bluetooth, etc?

Seems a little silly that my UWP app can access everything on my network except for my own darn computer via localhost, doesn't it?
I have a lot of accurately placed anger.

Linux is great for experts, and I really respect it for that. It has been very empowering to people like us.

The web is a peasantizing TV replacement and a trash fire. Linux is great on its own merits, not because it enabled this "web" abomination.

(Talking about webapps here, not web sites. Your personal static site is awesome. The fact that many people's experience with computers is remotely delivered JS storing data places they don't control is not.)
Who knows what's really going on behind the scenes. Considering the vast amount of information present in images and videos, they can extract all kinds of valuable data from it. Reconstruct user activities, brand preferences etc.. or improve algorithms for object recognition, spatial reconstruction or improvements of camera quality to make them cheaper, etc.

There is a lot you can do with it - if you have the computing power.
Being a Nazi is a priori violent. They have declared an intent to commit genocide by subscribing to that ideology. They ought to be excluded from society at every turn, because their goal is the destruction of our society and the mass murder of our peers.
On the gas station example - I recently recall wedding stores being unwilling to sell items to LGBT couples.

You're right, thanks for your correction. My main point was a location of the Control key. I guess with IBM XT keyboard CTRL-[ become a most reasonable option https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_PC_keyboard#/media/File:IB...
This is great news! Thanks for posting! I will definately keep an eye on this.
Specific selection? Not with that knowledge in mind admittedly but some groups of people continue to inbreed regardless of the clear dangers of this for offspring. There is a country where 70 percent of all marriages are between first cousins. The results are dire.
This isn't a modern phenomenon. Boycotts go back at least a century. It's a form of free speech like anything else.
One of the dogs I have right now is a pug and it is by far the best dog I have ever had. I wish I could reliably get pug personality and behavior in a mutt. For me, one of the benefits of getting a dog of a specific breed is that it's a known quantity.
Paul, you're actually going a little too far. No court case has ever shown that a "museum's assertions of license are invalid," and these are case-by-case issues. So Bridgeman may or may not apply in any given case. It could be cited as precedent for sure. But e.g. I'm pretty sure it specifically limited itself to 2D representations of 2D works.

When, in the past, good-hearted souls have scraped museum websites to construct larger images (e.g., from the old-fashioned zooming tools that only showed part of the image at a time), the museums in question stopped short of pursuing it in court for fear of just what you say. So it has not been tested (even though most thoughtful people agree with you about what would likely happen).

The Met has had (most of; maybe almost all) these images online since 2011. The licensing was unclear then--there was a hard to read, existing T&C that was more or less NC-BY-SA. Or maybe it was "no derivatives," I'm not sure. But getting the images out (hard but straightforward) without dealing with changing the license (hard and complicated) served basically 100% of the people without putting the Met at any risk.

This is now the third time in six years the Met has gotten a lot of news out of the "release" of these images. One could argue that this is not a big step, but if, in going CC0 it means they can release more images, that's a good thing. I haven't seen any report that the number of images has changed, actually. However, it does sound like they're not claiming copyright on 2D representations of 3D works in the public domain, which they certainly could do.
What about the other 99% of talented students that couldn't afford these schools?

This is great (and practical) advice. I hope the Octave BDFL reads it. Continuum Analytics might be another good fit, given a decent amount of ML work coming out of academia is in the form of a matlab file.

I'm not sure if by 'partner' they mean 'people we give money/people who give us money', but it costs nothing to ask: https://www.continuum.io/partners
If you are accustomed to seeing prints and photos and computer scans, it's easy to overlook how oil paint is like a sculpture. Watercolor, not so much.
Lady Gaga also had a bunch of white gay men in blackface for a faux slave auction. She is hardly a paragon of queer values or the voice of any movement. She represents a pop commodity that is sold to as large of a market as possible, nothing more and nothing less.
After using vim for many years with a basic .vimrc, I pulled in spf13, and wow, how little I knew!

I know many suggest learning vim from the ground up, but I'd say there's benefit to learning from the top down as well. Stripping spf13 down to the bits I'm interested in was an incredible learning experience.

For servers I still roll with pretty minimal configurations, but for local dev quite happy with an spf13 based .vimrc
Totally agree that schemas are lifejackets. Carfully modelled data can outlive the application it was originally written for.

Poorly structured data, on the other hand, where the schema and consistency is enforced in code is much harder to migrate.

Maybe our problem is that we write systems with a disposable point of view? We don't even think the system will be around long enough to require migration.
We try to mix it up. Here's where we went last winter: https://blog.ycombinator.com/winter-2016-college-tour/. And last fall: https://blog.ycombinator.com/yc-office-hours-in-11-countries...
...and now you are trolling. You edited out your original post, calling the people replying to you "Arch fanboys" (even though I stated my own disdain for Arch), reposted it with an addendum to make it appear you were talking about Upstart all along when you were initially only talking about systemd, and now you're paraphrasing me in a way that makes it look like I agree with you. Consequently, I have now flagged all of the above mentioned posts by you (the edited original, the "new" post, and this one I'm replying to) since it's obvious what you are doing. I still choose not to flag the one post you accused me of flagging, as others have already taken care of that.

Please consider how your actions in this thread make you appear, and have a good day.
Now you can buy black ink made from your car's exhaust
Categorization is important. Those who wish to use such categorization as a means to discriminate are not important, and should not be given any services until they change their ways. If society went back to this simple structure, (plus our educational system would recognize this instead of co-opting it) then this would change. But we're now in a more complex age. Good luck with that.
subscription form works without issues my end. yeah that button is messed up. looking at you launchrock....
She does no such thing. Whether Christ was actually divine, or even existed, has nothing to do with the evolution of the church and its doctrines a hundred or more years later. If you think the Bible as we know it isn't the product of human politics more than anything else, you need to educate yourself.
No, from what I can tell it is them asking not to be sued to for providing the service they signed up for. That is, looking at your social media profiles to verify your identity across profiles.

Even if it did mean that, it would be of 0 use to them because they are fully end-to-end encrypted
Yeah, happens a lot if I go to sleep without enough down time after coding.
My dreams have me going over code that is needed to perform some kind of dream action, like sitting, walking, or whatever else. I'll often get stuck in a loop and go over it again and again, trying to get the logic right all night long. My wife thinks it's hilarious because sometimes I'll talk in my sleep about it.
The buildpacks only define the content of the container, and what processes within that containter it can run.

On deploy, the containers are all being replaced.
One could argue that the original title as misleading. As it does not say what the bill actually does. In this case a plain English description of the results seems reasonable.
> That's part of your cost.

Except, I get to share one person across several systems.

Simplified example:

$100k/year for a Linux engineer

That same person can upgrade 10 Linux servers (on-premise company) or 1000 linux servers (cloud provider). It may take the 1000 linux servers slightly longer, but the cost to service is still significantly lower.

There's also a lot less variability in skills of the Linux engineer.

I don't think people quite understand that cloud computing is a consolidation and elimination of backend computing jobs, not the increase. The only reason there is an increase in the market, is because the overall pie is growing.
The Chinese communist party (CCP) tortured its own citizens for 40 years. Then it stopped beating them and then rented them out to foreign corporations for pennies on the dollar, for hard, back-breaking labor. Then the CCP members left China with billions and escaped.

You seem to have a warped sense of morality
I don't mean profitability - I just think it's funny to compare a company that makes an utterly unnecessary toy to a company trying to turn us into a multi-planetary species. And the fact that they spend so much more money is even more amusing.
I use Vim 8 (via MacVim) every day, but I'm definitely not at an advanced level!

I'd say the most advanced stuff I do is gqap, and performing substitutions via regex, either with a range or in visual mode.

I'd appreciate suggestions as to the best path to take, to move to a more advanced level of Vim 8.
(Note I mention Vim 8 explicitly. Also, if extending my existing vimrc becomes a thing to do, I'd want to do it myself, learning what each not does!)

Firstly, are you qualified to know if your dog was not in "some" degree of respiratory distress?

And again, your dog might have been ok. Hell, you might have got a classical pug with a longer snout and few issues.

The problem is that there are vast numbers being bred and sold that do suffer from these problems, and no amount of exercise is going to help them.

This is a solvable problem, if people stop selecting for dogs with collapsed faces.
<There's nothing stimulating or fulfilling about these jobs

I object. I can't tell what someone else feels is satisfying and I believe you can't either.

Have experiences and relationships with all types of people and jobs. I have and agree with Mike Rowe. The happiest group of people he ever worked with were those he filmed and performed dirty jobs with.

After freeing myself from the stigma of a professional job I gained more happiness with much less responsibility and much more free time. Like those jobs you mentioned. If I had known that when I was on call awaiting for the next system to crash only to get interrupted time and time again I would have intentionally changed careers faster.
very cool!! Go MSFT!!
"Are there limits to what you would host?"

"Instead of imposing our own morality on the platform, we defer to the law. All products must be legal in the jurisdiction of the business."

Compare that to the terms of service:

"We may, but have no obligation to, remove Store Content and Accounts containing content that we determine in our sole discretion are unlawful, offensive, threatening, libelous, defamatory, pornographic, obscene or otherwise objectionable or violates any party’s intellectual property or these Terms of Service."

If their entire policy is to defer to the law, why do they reserve the right to remove content for all these other reasons? Maybe they've changed their mind and haven't gotten around to codifying the new policy?

I took a look around their store to see if the objection was purely based on their views, or if there were offensive products. I came across a t-shirt which puts "E Pluribus Unum" inside an eagle insignia that is clearly the Nazi parteiadler minus the swastika part. I think it would be reasonable to say that this is offensive and possibly threatening, although no doubt perfectly legal in most places.

(This is not my first experience with surprise parteiadlers. I once got a free pair of sunglasses with a contact lens exam which turned out to be from BOY London, whose logo is the parteiadler minus the swastika. I exchanged them and suggested to that store that they might want to stop carrying merchandise with Nazi symbols on them. They were rather shocked to discover it. Until then, I didn't know that I had to check for Nazi symbols on stuff!)

Beyond that, I dislike this idea that picking and choosing with whom you do business is "censorship." This isn't speech, it's commerce. You're helping to fund these guys. Breitbart absolutely has the right to free speech, but they have no right to sell their wares through whatever platform they choose. If Shopify chose not to send money to these crypto-Nazis, it would not be an act of censorship. Their words would still be available to anyone who chooses to obtain them, Shopify just wouldn't be helping anymore.
>> 2:41 – GitLab values boring solutions: our product should be exceptional

Exceptional products have exceptional UX. Gitlab IMHO has the worst UX of all git based products out there, I much rather take BitBucket over Gitlab. I tried using Gitlab, but no, I would much rather pay the 7$ to GH for my private repos.

I sincerely hope they make an exceptional product. And 'should' better be 'must'!
NC State is more qualified than you give credit. US News ranks NC State's Engineering program higher than Duke's. Duke / NC State / UNC are three strong universities.

Can I ask you where I can find their roadmap about it? Very interested recently
Yes, seems a little tone-deaf to publish a puff piece about GitLab at the moment.
I'd recommend setting the `:migration_source` in your Ecto repository configuration and picking a different table name than Rails. But be careful, having two different sources changing the same database can be a disaster waiting to happen.
We do office hours in cities that anyone is welcome to sign up for. We're also going to be opening up signups for the MOOC shortly that anyone anywhere is welcome to participate in.
Sure, the benchmark and the application under test are public: http://benchmark.baqend.com/

We also do have some benchmarks comparing real-time performance, which are under submission at a scientific conference, so we cannot share them yet.

Unfortunately, testing against Firebase using established benchmarks such as YCSB is not very useful, as it's unclear which limits are enforced on purpose and which limits are inherent to the database design. Would you be open to providing a Firebase setup for heavy load testing w.r.t. to throughput, latency and consistency?
and mutts, by their very nature, are far more genetically healthy than pure breeds.
Wrong - many pugs and other breeds are anatomically disastrous, and will suffer throughout their lives regardless of their owners.

That's the whole point of the article.
There isn't a label for "these people" but their agenda is called "identity politics" and it often operates on the same scientific level as creationism.
These are neo-nazis buying products from a neo-nazi publication that happens to use Shopify for their online store. They're not going to opt-in to an ACLU donation. What the GGP is proposing is that Shopify take their cut of the transaction and donate it to the ACLU.
Our society is doomed
I began building one a year and a half ago, starting with a 5930k, 1x980ti, 32GB. This put me in a position to incrementally upgrade it starting at ~$2.5k. That being said, at this point the smallest AWS p2 instances are equivalent to my current setup, and it would take 150 days worth of running my hardware to make it cost-effective vs. AWS.
"First you need to stop seeing it as a binary (being gay isn't a bit that gets 'flipped,'"

Are you as gay as I am? I had NO disposition towards men until I hit about 17 years of age. Suddenly, I couldn't stop dominating them in bed.

Something sure as hell 'flipped' in me to suddenly make me go from banging tons of girls in high school to dominating men almost exclusively.

And I've done modeling. I can pull whatever I want any day. Why did I suddenly prefer men? I still can't answer that.
$3B over the next five years. Rackspace was worth around $4.6B in August with assets of around $1.6B. Assuming that Snap would require as big an infrastructure as Rackspace, then purchasing Rackspace for $4.6B was surely a better deal, because that's the amount their GC + AWS + Raw Hardware bill would cost, if they decide to build their own infra. Given how much AWS was earning a year back while still being massively profitable, these services cost a few hundred million a year to run at worst.

I have a strong feeling that this has a lot to do with available human capital to build and sustain these services. It even took Rackspace years to have a "Cloud" offering and it was essentially Slicehost with blings.

Come to think of it, it is around $4 per user, per year. With the way the landscape is with everything shifting to (live) videos, it probably is not that much an expenditure. Especially given that Snap will have several times the users in next 5 years, so the cost will look even less. That, and inflation.
I'm a big fan. Have invested in over 100 companies through FundersClub/Wefunder/Angel.co over the last 4 yrs. Most of them YC companies. Startup investing is a long game, don't really expect meaningful returns until the 7 to 10 yr timeframe. Have backed off a bit recently with a need for more liquidity (kids entering college in the next few years).
