They're ahead in multi-threaded performance, but as another commenter said, they suffer when it comes to single-threaded tasks, which meant that their gaming performance often suffered (my friend ran into this problem firsthand when he discovered that his FX6300 was bottlenecking his GTX 970).

Hopefully that isn't true anymore, or Intel may still be the superior chip for gaming.
Is this an orbitally stable arrangement?
Relaxing index-signature access is definitely great as it will make writing code easier. Dynamic properties can lead you to hairy code but it's hard to ignore the reality that it's used everywhere.

For example, no more awkward `e["code"]` where `e.code` is just as valid.
Well it is approximately 40 light years away from our solar system. So the basic calculation would say about 42 years but this doesn't account for acceleration and deceleration and such.
it implies some of the following:

- whites are a non-diverse group of people

- whites (of all types, as a group) have been as historically unempowered as nonwhites in America

- whites think whiteness is underrepresented in America

- whites aren't bothered by how nonwhiteness affects outcomes

- messages about race are currently at peak broadcast capacity, so talking about race is a zero-sum game where prioritizing one audience takes a potential piece of information away another audience

- race is something other than ingroup/outgroup attribution
Is this from NASA news conference that was announced for today? I couldn't find it in article? They said they have important announcement.
Out of interest , although dimmer, are there any potential hazards simply due to the proximity of a dim star?
Well, that's a relief. I'm getting older, but I've actually been speaking less, mostly because it's a waste of time to speak when nobody is actually paying attention.
Are you basing that statement purely on the appearance of the planets in the artist's conception you linked, or was it stated in another article somewhere?
Those cool stars are also very durable and will not burn that easily.
You could, and probably would. But, how would you send everyone else? That 'traditional' method (carbon based fuels to propel a heavy payload) is extremely expensive, and slow. So if you ever wanted to send more than just 1 payload, you'd quickly reach resource limitations (namely cost, and time).
"Alan Emtage was born in Barbados, the son of Sir Stephen and Lady Emtage."
At a constant 1g of acceleration, you could travel there, from the traveler's point of view, in ~2-3 years. (And in ~40 years from a stationary observer's point of view.)

Mind you, a constant 1g acceleration (Or accelerating any human-carrying spaceship to relativistic speeds, really,) is about as plausible as a spaceship driven by pixie dust and unicorn farts.

Contrary to what you may think, sleeping with your coworkers is a Bad Idea(tm) and puts you in a vulnerable position irrespective of gender.

Pao probably was treated unfairly at Kleiner-Perkins. However, sleeping with a coworker meant that she was never going to win that in court.

My point is that if you want to pick a poster child for discussing sexism in this industry you need to pick someone much less vulnerable to countercharge.

There was a reason that they chose Rosa Parks instead of Claudette Colvin for the bus boycott.

There are multiple kinds of irony; I keep forgetting this isn't something well known.
Huh, I don't see them on Newegg yet.
Yeah, they are all resonant.
> Gillon says that the six inner planets probably formed farther away from their star and then migrated inward. Now, they are so close to each other that their gravitational fields interact, nudging one another in ways that enabled the team to estimate each planet's mass. They range from around 0.4 to 1.4 times the mass of the Earth.

Given that these planets are so close to each other, and interacting with each other gravitationally, how likely is it that their orbital arrangement is stable over geological time?
It was stated by the scientists at the NASA press release. They also stated that all seven of the planets have the potential for liquid water depending on (unspecified) circumstances.
That's no reason for avoiding atomics in simple use cases. "Use locks and then profile" is fairly bad advice. Forget the profiler and always use atomics in simple situations where you know exactly how they work. Just don't try anything complicated with them.
I think the magic speed is actually 10% the speed of light.
I love bitrise, especially since it is free for OSS projects. This means I don't need a build server at home for iOS, whenever I need to build and release my iOS libraries. It is fast. It is flexible and gives you the possibility of making your build pipeline using their blocks and other OSS blocks around on GitHub. You can use build scripts such as Cake, Fake and many more. More importantly the guys behind bitrise are very helpful when encountering issues.

Good job so far!
Yup, for several hundred thousand year's journey. No problem. :-)

I would just hope my emacs session will stay up that long.
I'm a bit dubious. If they have such an amazing part why is it being sold for so cheap? Why not 80% of the price of the comparable Intel part? Selling it at 50% or even less raises some heavy alarm bells for me.
GitHub's Bug Bounty Workflow
Hopefully, your career doesn't include the use of any form of logic because by using your line of thinking many Asians and Inuits would be considered white? I think your probably the only person you really know.
This is module auto-loading, i.e., you don't need CAP_SYS_MODULE, nor do you make an init_module syscall. The only syscall you make is socket(...IPPROTO_DCCP), and the kernel asks /sbin/modprobe (which it runs with full privileges) to load the appropriate module. The userspace program does not have any privileges.

Does Docker actually block that? amluto's comment about the Timgad LSM implies that such functionality doesn't exist yet. (And the replies on LKML show the same confusion between explicit module loading, which requires privilege, and auto-loading, which does not. https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/2/6/279)

The easy way to try this is to lsmod and look for dccp and dccp_ipv4, `modprobe -r` them if they're already there, run

python -c 'from socket import *; socket(AF_INET, 6, 33)'

in your container, and lsmod again and see if they're present.
They all need a propellant and power feed. But, you can use those same feeds for an array of multiple engines. Thus, 'scaling up' has a wide range of options and trade-offs. Vasimr let's you scale power output a lot from the same engine, but so would an array of smaller engines.

With that in mind the specific techniques are important, but the gaps are often overstated.
I think Americans have been aware of this for quite a long time. That's why the Lake Placid "Olympic village" was built to be a prison, and we all just pretended it was actually a dormitory for athletes for a few short weeks. After the visitors left, they went back in to finish putting in the bars and fences.

Atlanta never would have submitted a bid if they didn't have businesses already lined up to not only take over the facilities after the event, but to participate in the design to ensure they would be fit for purpose after the visitors left.

US tax-payers would go into open revolt if their city did not have a post-event plan for all the visitor infrastructure that is at least plausibly non-disastrous. We get angry enough as it is when the city uses our taxes to subsidize just one professional sports team--a team that will probably turn around to charge us $50 per 19-inch (48 cm) seat, $10 for each beer, and just suck in league play for the next 10 seasons. As far as I'm concerned, only publicly-owned teams should even be eligible for public support, and the only "major" team in the US that even qualifies is the NFL's Green Bay Packers.

So you're going to have to line up support from a university; Live Nation or some other big concert promoter; a major or minor league sports team or two; perhaps a mall company like Simon Property Group, Westfield Group, or General Growth Properties; and maybe a hotelier like Wyndham, Hyatt, Mariott, Hilton, or Choice. You'll need restaurant franchisees, city planners, and support from the mass transit companies. And then you still have to win the event bid. Even if you do win, a lot of residents will be saying, "Oh, so you'll do actual maintenance and improvements to infrastructure for THEM, who will be here for two months and then leave you with the bill, but you won't do it for US, living here and working and paying taxes for generations? You got some esplainin' to do."

Then there is also the issue that even our most corrupt politicians sometimes balk at bribing foreign officials. Sure, they'll take under-the-table lobbying dollars from domestic corporations and casino-operating tribes all day long, and nobody bats an eye, but you get international borders involved, and suddenly they get worried about possible federal criminal charges.

Near the bottom, "Please resist commenting about being downvoted. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading."

My personal voting philosophy matches yours, I tend to take downvotes more seriously, but it is not site policy, and it is acceptable here and lots of people do drive-by downvote, as you put it, for simple disagreement as well as other legitimate reasons. This is a good reason to resist taking downvotes personally, to resist speculating on why they were given, and to resist commenting about them when they happen.

One way to think about voting is symmetry -- maybe it's okay if downvotes are given out as freely as upvotes, and for the exact same reasons. If I upvote something I like without explanation, maybe it should be fine to downvote something I dislike without explanation. In a group heavy on engineers, perhaps this approach has an appealing consistency.
Actually they are fewer. A dim star has less high energy radiation and a lower probability of harmful solar flares.
The strategy makes sense to me. Hire people who deeply understand the product to support users. Get as much feedback and use cases as you can. Then eliminate support costs once you've found your place in the market by first replacing staff with lower paid, less knowledgeable people, then automate it.
Wiki says "TRAPPIST-1 is an ultracool dwarf star that is approximately 8% the mass of and 11% the radius of the Sun. It has a temperature of 2550 K and is at least 500 million years old."

Too young star for alien life hopes?
It's not really about people's feelings. It's a fact that Obama is intellectually curious, more educated in the constitution, more experienced in government, more honest (by any fact checking metric), and on and on. Again, that doesn't mean he always makes the right decisions.

As for the protests, having participated in some, I think the demands are generally clear "cancel the muslim ban", "release your taxes", "dont take away our healthcare", "stand up for the rights of the disenfranchised". I'm sure you can find examples that are less focused but that doesn't prove anything. They aren't all going to be effective, but it's important to show that we're watching and listening and ready to mobilize.
Any local government or ngo that proposes to its local citizens that it should host an Olympics should immediately be investigated for corruption. (Tongue barely in cheek.)

To get a spacecraft there it would take:

Accelerating at 1g the 1st half, and decelerating at 1g the 2nd half, the traveler would experience 7.3 years of time. For observers it would take 41.8 years at a max speed of 0.998c

If you had a near perfect hydrogen -> helium fusion engine, it'd take about 6 million tons of fuel (about the mass of the Pyramids of Egypt or 2,000 Saturn V rockets)
> are there...hazards simply due to the proximity of a dim star

Tidal locking [1]. Similar to how our moon shines at us ass first all the time, the planets around TRAPIST-1 would be expected to have one face locked to their star. Instead of an equatorial belt bookended with loops of temperate zones, as we have on Earth, we should expect, climatically, an "equatorial" face and a "polar" face separated by a tropic-to-temperate transition area.

The Social Buying Hypothesis: How people decide to buy online today
Note one significant gotcha with this approach: the Ingress does TLS termination, so the hop from the Ingress to your pod is unencrypted.

That might be OK if 1) your data isn's sensitive or 2) you're running on your own metal (and so you control the network), but in GKE your nodes are on Google's SDN, and so you're sending your traffic across their DCs in the clear.

There are a couple of pieces of hard-to-find config required to achieve TLS-to-the-pod with Ingress:

1) You need to enable ssl-passthrough on your nginx ingress; this is a simple annotation: https://github.com/kubernetes/contrib/issues/1854. This will use nginx's streaming mode to route requests with SNI without terminating the TLS connection.

2) Now you'll need a way of getting your certs into the pod; kube-lego attaches the certs to the Ingress pod, which is not what you want for TLS-to-the-pod. https://github.com/PalmStoneGames/kube-cert-manager/ lets you do this in an automated way, by creating k8s secrets containing the letsencrypt certs.

3) Your pods will need an SSL proxy to terminate the TLS connection. I use a modified version of https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/nginx-ssl-proxy.

4) You'll want a way to dynamically create DNS entries; Mate is a good approach here. Note that once you enable automatic DNS names for your Services, then it becomes less important to share a single public IP using SNI. You can actually abandon the Ingress, and have Mate set up your generated DNS records to point to the Service's LoadBalancer IP.

(As an aside, if you stick with Nginx Ingress, you can connect it to the outside world using a Kubernetes loadbalancer, instead of having to use a Terraform LB; the (hard-to-find and fairly new) config flag for that is `publish-service` (https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress/blob/master/core/pkg/i...).
I was essentially thinking the same thing. I wonder if an elevator could be built between all of them?
Probably because of their contract with GlobalFoundries which requires them to pay penalties if they don't move a specific volume.
I think it's probably both, once you know a subject well it's easy to take some of that knowledge for granted. If you have just learnt it then you probably have a little more empathy for the reader.
If you're root, a local privilege escalation isn't going to get you any more privileges than you already have.

If you're root in a container, but not root on the outside system, you shouldn't be able to write to /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe, no?
Google Fiber makes expansion plans for $60 wireless service
The point that you (appear) to have made, and I am reacting to, is that ignoring the problem is the best way to address it, and I think that is demonstrably ineffective.

I think you are misunderstanding the point treehau5 wanted to make. I think he wants to say the same thing as I [1], we should take action to boost disadvantaged groups in order to close existing gaps as quickly as possible but that should be done in away that avoids focusing on the distinction one wants to go away. It is not about ignoring an existing issue, it is about not additionally emphasizing it.

What good is it, if you want to get rid of racial bias, to point out the race in a context where it does not matter at all? Maybe you could argue that there are people believing that black people made no significant contributions to our world and you are trying to correct that but that does not seem a very strong argument to me.

> If they have such an amazing part why is it being sold for so cheap?

Because they get exploded in single-threaded performances, so they have to pit their 8-core parts against Intel's 4 cores.

The 1700X will be competing against the $350 7700K more than the $1100 6900K (which incidentally is a Broadwell-E part not a Skylake part despite de 6 prefix)
What if we used engines powered by nuclear energy (fission or fusion)? Could we reduce the amount of fuel, since the energy density is so much higher?
Thanks for catching - I've updated the blog post. I tend to just use `strictNullChecks` by default, as it's typically the best option for any new code. :)

Speaking of tooling -- has anyone had a good experience with Typescript in IntelliJ/Webstorm? It does a fantastic job figuring out ES6 code but seems to totally choke on Typescript. I'd like to avoid switching to Visual Studio.
It is HUGELY wasteful. The statement "one of the most energy-efficient buildings in the world" is a prime example of obscuring the truth, as well. When considering full-system efficiency this is undoubtedly one of the most wasteful structures in the world. 12000 employees, 14000 parking spaces, and a 1-hour walk to the nearest point of mass tranportation (Lawrence Caltrain, which is poorly served; the more frequently served Sunnyvale Caltrain is a 75-minute walk from this building).
Uh oh.

The "great filter" hypothesis is essentially that the rarity of intelligent life has to be explained by some parameter of the Drake equation, and that whatever the "small" parameter is is either in our past or in our future.

If the "great filter" is the rarity of habitable worlds, then clearly we don't need to fear it, since we already found one. But if habitable worlds aren't rare, then it's more likely it lies in our future (e.g. global thermonuclear war, plague, difficulty of space travel, etc).

Thus things like discovery of exoplanets, bacteria on mars, etc should make us rather concerned.

I doubt we'll attempt serious inter-stellar travel before we figure out antimatter or black hole-powered engines. So we may have to wait a century or two.

The article mentions the star being an ultra-cool dwarf star, but doesn't give an explanation of what that means. Here's some info from Wikipedia that I found useful:

TRAPPIST-1 is an ultracool dwarf star that is approximately 8% the mass of and 11% the radius of the Sun. It has a temperature of 2550 K and is at least 500 million years old. In comparison, the Sun is about 4.6 billion years old and has a temperature of 5778 K.

Due to its mass, the star has the ability to live for up to 4–5 trillion years ...
