It is a legitimate question, because ECC is very uncommon in desktops and laptops.

Companies I worked for used those only on the servers where we run critical stuff, not a single developer laptop had ECC.

Real estate is one of the few ways to make substantial wealth gains with little starting wealth (because of the large leverage that is possible and the norm on the transaction). That's why you hear so many stories of middle class people making $500K+ on their house over a decade.

That doesn't necessarily make it one of the best ways overall, but it is a very good way if you're starting with little because it's basically your only option. Trying to scale that up (into real estate beyond your personal residence, rental properties, etc) is pretty close to buying yourself another job. If you work at that job diligently, you will do better in rental property than in your own residence, but it's work.

For those with some capital (say 1+ million USD) and a full-time job, real estate as a second job is not a particularly good fit IMO. The un-levered returns you can get in the stock market are better and the time commitment is largely optional and can be at a time of your choosing.
doesn't that require an enterprise license?

It is a bit more nuanced than that. Buying a house is a highly leveraged (if you have a mortgage), undiversified and relatively illiquid investment.

House prices have indeed gone up, but there is no guarantee that they will continue to climb. There is a limit to how high they can climb relative to income. You also picked one of the hottest real estates markets as a point of reference. The returns in many other places are much lower. As a comparison, the S&P 500 with dividends reinvested over that same period (january 1996 to january 2017) has returned 440%.

When buying a house, timing is crucial for the return. Renting and monthly investing in the stock market has the advantage that your investment is spread out in time.

For most people, the biggest advantage of buying a house with a mortgage is that it imposes a discipline: you have to pay off the monthly instalment. If you rent you might be tempted to spend the rest of your income instead of investing it.

> Why would it be "wasteful" to prioritize quality of life for residents over investors' profits?

Fair enough but are you willing to compensate the investors/landlords for the lost income from foregoing these opportunities or asking the govt to have the tax payers foot the bill to help tenants stay in their properties at artificially lower than market rates?

I say let supply and demand sort this out and just focus our efforts on exposing anti-competitive violations like price collusion among landlords etc etc.

Usually landlords/investors who are attracted to this "trade" are lured by the prospects of short-term profits and if that doesn't materialize for any reason, they'd seek more stable income by entering into long-term arrangements at more economic rates with permanent tenants.

The key thing here is the separation of memory protection from memory addressing. Virtual memory addressing is a required abstraction to deal with stuff like paging. Memory protection does not need to be tied to addressing, and once you do that you can basically get this buffer abstraction that you are describing.

The buffers are just chunks of the global address space that this process has been allowed to access. Processes already deal with a similar abstraction, what does mmap return but a buffer of memory? The only difference from the point of view of writing software is that pointers in shared memory start to work better.
Thanks for feedback. Not sure if I clarified my question. I already was a contractor (in reasonable rates bracket). I no longer want to work for other business nor gaining employment.

I've always been pleased to see Joel succeed, as he's a great guy, but I have to admit some of the posts they came out with have ultimately proved to be utter b%!!$hit. I remember calling them out on a post about how the UK was a bad place to startup, I've seen a couple of $100+ million buyouts of startups here since then just in Nottingham. Then they claimed bootstrapping was best, then raised. Claimed a flat structure was best, then go a traditional management structure, etc., etc.

Soo, what you're saying is, when you publicly write about what your ideas and opinions are about how to run your company, you can't change your mind anymore.

Land value taxes will end up being paid by the tenant. The landlord will only handle the money.

The tenant, as the one "consuming" the land for that term is the one who ought to pay the tax for the value of the land. It's only when the land is unoccupied that the owner/landlord will pay (which is also perfectly fair).

Buying something for a dollar and selling it for two is the second oldest business model in the world. Most businesses boil down to one or the other.

Rental property is buy an asset, break it into manageable and consumable chunks (nights, months, or a year of tenancy) and sell those chunks for more than you paid for them.

Airlines buy (or lease) entire airplanes and sell individual seat-routes. They're somewhat less successful at turning a profit than real estate, though.

A hobby microprocessor based computer. I'm finally moving from design to prototyping this month.

A programming language that I've been designing for about two years now. I'm in the initial bootstrap phase, and about to rewrite the compiler in itself. The goal is to use it as an experimental test bed, as an example, the compiler should use a tracing inference model I wrote a thesis on, for automatic type inference, and function overloading. The overly-ambitious goal is "As easy as Python, as safe as Rust".
assuming you buy the home outright, the returns can be boosted by renting it-or-on the money you saved by not renting. If you put all your $ in stocks, you still need somewhere to live.
My rule of thumb is "keep it as simple as possible", and I say this as somebody who maintains a complex, containerized project using both Amazon's ECS and Kubernetes. For example:

1. If you can use a simple deployment system based on 'git push' (such as Heroku), you should just go ahead and do that until you outgrow it. This is easy to test, deploy and maintain.

2. If your project is tricky to build, go ahead and set up a Dockerfile with a correctly configured environment. You can still deploy this using Heroku, Google Container Engine, Amazon ECS or many other cloud providers. Choose something simple. This is harder than something like Heroku, but it's mostly a one-time learning cost.

3. If you need multiple containers, then set up a continuous integration system that automatically builds and tests your containers on every 'git push', and which allows you to deploy a service with a single click. You'll also want a separate staging environment. At this point, you're probably going to need to devote at least 10 hours/week of engineering time to keeping everything working. System-wide integration testing will get more complex.

Again, you can stay on a managed cloud provider like Amazon's ECS or Google Container Engine for a long time before you need to set up and manage your own Kubernetes cluster. But if you find that you're writing lots of scripts to manage the containers on your clusters, it's probably time to look at a standard solution like Kubernetes.

TL;dr: Stay with the easiest deployment solutions, and only add complexity when you need it.
I am not clear on one important detail: Is the code being pushed to a public or private GitHub repository?

In any case, there are 2 issues:

1. Your employer (the consulting company) does not want to pay you for the work that you have done.

2. Your current assignment involves supposedly illegal activities (putting the customer's (i.e. bank's) code to GitHub) in which you do not want to participate.

In order to resolve issue #1, get a lawyer, analyze your contract and if its terms were indeed broken, sue the company.

In order to resolve issue #2, simply do not do it. Quit the job. If the matter bothers you and you want to stop the supposedly illegal practices from occurring again, talk to the customer (i.e. the bank, not your employer). They must have some means of internal whistleblowing. Find out what it is and how to raise a concern. It should be possible to do it anonymously. As soon as you do it, your part is done. From that point on, it is their responsibility to take the matter further, should they wish to do so.

I think the 7$/month option is only for managed service providers to resell to their customers, you can't get a single instance of it directly from MS.

>Intel's response has always been the same. They cut their profit margins and start selling chips cheaper. They undercut AMD with volume and price and suddenly AMD is in the doghouse again struggling. AMD's best efforts can cut into Intel's profits, but Intel's response is to remove all profits from AMD until it's left behind.

The last time Intel did that it was through illegal tactics - unlikely they'll get away with it a second time.

I live in Belgium, which is also a high tax country (but not as much as Scandinavian countries). The way it seems to me in Belgium is that the average person is barely getting by, which in part has to do with the high tax rate. As a resident, you do get back a lot, but I'm unsure whether it compensates for the lack of additional net income.
Thanks. Right, I just let Google do the conversion (per my footnotes) and didn't think about the bit/byte thing - ooops.

Do you run a web server on yours? Can you check locally what your actual latency is for curl-ing (or wgeting) a page? I mean the actual timestamp difference from your local machine, such as your laptop or desktop. I don't intend to have a lot of traffic but I really, really hate latency. thanks for all this info btw.
OK, but aren't real calculations done on servers (those usually have ECC). During my PhD days we were only testing on local desktops and scheduling calculations on remote server that had a lot of RAM and CPU power.
Ever needed to browse through your log files to get something out of it but got lost in the ocean of raw data?

You do realize that taxes don't just disappear, right? Tax revenue pays for things like child care, health care, universities etc. That means the average consumer can spend more on frivolous things even if they are more expensive. So yeah us Scandinavians are living a pretty sweet life :)

I'd propose as an amendment that you're on to something that its cultural, but probably much less controversial in that its merely a simple sorting system.

Does it never expire? Looseleaf tea, sugar, honey, spices, salt ... that goes in cabinet.

Does it expire/rot eventually no matter if its hours or months? Simple, all that stuff goes in fridge.

No need to ponder or remember or search two places. If its eternal its stored over there, if its not eternal, it is not.

This has obvious cultural side effect with my people have large fridge and only really use maybe two kitchen cabinets unlike recent trends in American kitchen remodeling where the average kitchen has a relatively modest (stainless steel, of course) fridge with about thirty kitchen cabinets presumably full of butter and eggs and milk or something.

There are even more cultural issues... I've met people who claim to hate the taste of walnut oil because they've been conditioned to believe the only walnut oil that exists is rancid bitter and gross so people like that who none the less for some weird reason like bitter rancid oil will naturally store their oil on the shelf to maximized its awfulness, although I store mine in the fridge and its delicious even though I have to warm it each time I cook with it (ditto butter). Perhaps there are people acclimated to rotten eggs such that they would actively dislike fresh eggs. Kinda like how beer gets skunky after a couple days exposure to sunlight in a closed bottle, there are probably people who actively like skunky beer.

The first thing I do when I look at kubernetes tutorials is look at ingress or load-balancing... and usually I find it absent.

It is not the fault of the author (and I commend them for taking the trouble), but Kubernetes is super complex for getting traffic inside the cluster. But here's a genuine appeal from someone who has suffered this before.

In kubernetes, you have multiple types of ingresses - and you invariably need to have a combination of them to get anything done correctly. For example nginx-ingress will lose source-ip info and will not do L4 proxying very well. Which is why the unsaid point of all kubernetes deployments is "use ELB or GLB with proxy protocol and call it a day".

I get why - K8s is trying to solve the most complex problems first and trickling it down. Which means for the time being, ingress is a very hard problem to solve in k8s.

The second place where every one will get stuck is calico vs weave vs flannel vs whatever. Most tutorials say "use any one of them and let's move on". Unfortunately, that is not the case - choose your network plugins wisely.

After spending a lot of time in k8s, I setup a Docker Swarm cluster in about 3 hours. It does not have some of the more complex usecases supported but it does three things super well - networking, ingress and secrets ... and for most beginners, that's all they need.

P.S. i have the exact same stack running on kubernetes and docker swarm

Docker Compose yml form 3.1 is brilliant - other than my docker files, i need a 30 line yml file to deploy my whole stack across 3 machines. Kubernetes on the other hand needs atleast 12 yml files ("deployments" and "services"). I'm not counting another 4 yml files for statefulsets and persistentvolumeclaim since there is nothing equivalent in docker swarm
I guess you never argued with Trumpers on the Internet at election time. The Fake news were widely distributed and very frustrating to argue against! The template is practically a hack of human laziness and selective bias. Example:

http://archive.is/9CXYO

This archive of a disreputable website has an article that claims Clinton bribed prominent Republicans (which were at that time Trumps opponents in the primary). It even links Wikileaks and gives an id for the email. Only ... the ID simply doesn't exist. It even made it into an Interview of Hannity with Assange:

https://www.reddit.com/r/WhereIsAssange/comments/5ion2c/full...

> Hannity: Let me ask you about Wikileaks. I think this could shake up the political world. Is it true that an email sent in July of this year that you have, that describes how funds could be diverted from the Clinton campaign to the super PACs of Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina, and John Kasick. Specifically document number 1078645.
Assange: I don't have that in front of me. We have published nearly 100,000 documents so. I mean I have seen references to things like that. I don't recall seeing an 'eyes only' phrase.

Assange didn't recall it because there is no email. The whole story was made up as clickbait for conservatives. But even Assange guards his statement, because it is normal that one doesn't recall everything, right?

Another example was a story about Supreme Court justice Ginsberg. Another clickbait website made up a quote of her and linked as proof an interview of Ginsburg in the NYTimes. And the NYT is reputable, right? Only the quote is fictional it never was in the NYT article. In a time were many people just read the headline and skim the rest (if at all) and sharing via social media is one click away, this is disappointingly effective.

Copenhagen is definitely colder than Seattle, with lows below freezing all through the winter.

It's definitely harder to ride a bike in cold winter weather— but the same is true of walking and driving. One mostly needs cleared roads/paths (as drivers and pedestrians do) and warm, windproof gear (as a pedestrian and skier does). The right bike for city cycling year-round isn't a road bike designed for warm weather high-speed recreation, either.

I wear normal clothes and just add a nice wool 'Buff' scarf for face/neck coverage and good gloves for cycling around NYC in winter weather. I also use snow tires for safety, just because the city doesn't do a great job clearing snow from all the bike lanes, and the bike lane network isn't yet extensive enough that I can avoid mixing with car traffic.

And when it's really cold— even Minnesota closes schools and businesses, anyways:
https://www.mprnews.org/story/2015/01/06/school-closure-crit...

So— cycling in cold weather is perfectly possible, and, in any case, most people don't live in places where it regularly gets cold enough for cycling to be truly difficult.
