thanks for understanding. I can understand the view, but I'm no-body, he is a well-known (millionaire) founder. It may help the world to know about him but I suspect it mayn't help me to overcome my state of anger/frustration/feeling of cheated. If I do so now, it may continue to haunt me for few more years.
I feel like I can get all of the things you mentioned without a mandatory daily meeting, either through slack, email, or just conversing with someone. It's not that the daily standup bothers me per se, but lets calculate this out for a second. If the daily standup eats about 15 minutes, and you work about 250 days a year, thats about 3500 minutes spent in a scrum. Considering that, even being charitable, I might hear one useful thing every two weeks... I kinda would rather spend those 3500 minutes elsewhere

Hi Operyl, Russell from Gravitational here.

We've made improvements in resource utilization for Teleport 2.0 and hunting down any further resource utilization issues is definitely one of my focus areas for Teleport 2.x.

If you run into issues like this again please reach out and send us your teleport.yaml, we want to run these issues down and resolve them.
If you do a little bit of "open source intelligence" you can find the author of this exploit used to be employed in an Isreali Defense Force - Elite Technological Unit.

No, that would just bring back DLL hell.
> Your lucky; vaccinated people get the flu all the time.

I know, it's around 60% effective. But even if you still get the flu, the symptoms are reduced.

Your point is valid but not justification for not not getting the vaccination. It's irresponsible to not get it. It's free (under Obamacare), and if you don't care about yourself, there are other people who for various reasons cannot get a shot and can die from the flu.
Much of the asteroid is likely not that valuable; it's not like there's pure ingots of metals floating around out there. So you'd want to have some kind of refinery in space which can capture the asteroid and extract the valuable ores.

Nope. Not applicable at all, the aircraft was not in operation. I am a pilot (former CFII) and and there is no possible application of this FAR to this situation. It's not even a stretch.
> To drive this home, the USSR treated people as interchangable inputs.

Capitalism does that, too (it's a central element of the Marxist critique); that's actually a big part of why many non-Communist socialists and even non-Leninist Marxists, from very early on, described the system in the USSR as State capitalism (where the State was a vehicle for the Leninist vanguard, rather than the population/proletariat, to control capital and oppress the proletariat in much the same manner as a traditional capitalist elite.)

The browser is definitely in a better position to handle downloading these images on a slow connection without blocking the rest of the page from loading. Unfortunately, it doesn't, at least without extensions that only a very small percentage of users are aware exist. I have long wished for browsers to use more discretion when on slow connections, or failing that, to at least inform websites that they are on a slow connection so that I can optimize my sites for slow connections without sacrificing the experience for fast ones. Alas, this is not the world we live in.
Sorry about that. We'll have a support engineer reach out now and I'll work with our VP of Eng to look into our SLA for all GitHost customers.
Again. I think we agree. You're just making a different point than the one I was making. I was making a technical but hopefully still constructive point about what is an externality and what is not.

You seem more focused on making a case against shipping inefficient code. And you're point is a good one. It's just a little difficult to suss that out since you're framing it as standing in opposition to my related, but very different, observation about externalities.
It all depends on who you are. Politician or CEO of a multinational or a company related to defense? Political activist? Enemy of the state? The opposition? Hacker?

It doesn't have to be 'large scale' to be effective and given how hidden an attack like this could be (and how easy it would be to erase the fact that it was even there) it may have been used on your device and you still wouldn't be aware of it or able to prove that it was.

Yes, built in pf, dns and dhcp alone make for a nice little home router that I trust more than an off the shelf model. Pretty easy to set up too, config files in OpenBSD are generally straightforward and easy to get right the first time. I definitely found nsd easier to setup than bind.
Discord desktop is electron. Only our iOS app is react native. We spend quite a lot of time and effort optimizing performance however, something thats required given the number of large servers with many thousands of concurrent users.
I don't see any benchmarks showing this as "faster." Seems like a pretty serious claim.

From the Firebase JavaScript SDK, I can do one thousand individual gets with a 3.4k payload at 1-2ms each. http://jsfiddle.net/katowulf/8wkon62c/

Mileage varies, of course, but I'd love to see a benchmark I can run side by side that can beat those numbers. I can't even get close with a simple GET, which returns in 86ms.
Thanks!

There is a good book on the topic by Richard Overy, The Bombing War.
It left me with the impression that the bombing morphed into vindictive civilian punishiment.
How does one validate typescript models at runtime? I have seen combinations of JSON schema and validator libraries but I'd love to do it using typescript's type system. From my understanding, it doesn't work because of type erasure.

I do not particularly like TypeScript because:

- It adds complexity and unnecessary dependencies to the project and this makes it more brittle and more difficult to set up and get running (I often run into issues with it).
- Slows down your debug cycle (it typically takes at least 15 seconds to compile for a small project) so you can't test your assumptions quickly as you would with plain JS - You have to wait all the time and try not to get distracted.
- For an experienced JS developer like me, the vast majority of errors raised by the compiler are pedantic and not related to any real logical flaws - I spend a lot of time catering to the fussiness of the compiler instead of thinking purely about logic.
- Working with legacy JS libraries is a pain.

I will admit though that being able to look up references and usages of various classes and functions without having to leave the IDE is a nice feature - I don't really need it though because I got used to searching through my code with text-matching (sift) and by adhering to a proper source directory structure.
The resistance to change and make things right is sooooo big that all else will quit except the ones who have the real power to make that change.. while pushing all others overboard.

Even United CEO apologized, but sexual harassment is no biggie I guess for Uber.

Good luck Uber.
Coupled Deep Learning for Heterogeneous Face Recognition
Yes, there is probably a contrived counter example for every action a company does that allows you to construe that action as a net negative. But on the whole companies are quite smart at allocating their resources, especially scrappy start-ups and given that bit of data you can make the (safe) assumption that they thought this through to make sure that it would not be a negative. For instance, by first asking their customers whether or not they would pay for such a product.

> Every bug looks egregious in hindsight

Most bugs are of the form "do X then Y then it doesn't work". These idle CPU bugs are reproduced simply by opening the application.

I accept that 13% idle usage is invisible for most developers - but that's a bit disappointing. I notice stuff like this just by idly glancing at my CPU meter from time to time. An app that's sitting on high idle usage sets off klaxons for me.
I get that everyone has their specialty -- Im not trying to imply that someone that writes javascript for a living is a lesser coder or everything should be native. My point is that there are fundamentals to this craft, and all these web developers acting like C is exotic knowledge baffles me. With regard to your first point though, I actually do think knowing some form of assembly is also super useful. I just tend to focus on C since as is well known, its basically portable assembly.
There probably is a revolving door between the top tech companies and the various intelligence agencies. Nice sleuthing!
Please explain to me what benefit the fade-in has to

a) low-bandwidth users

b) high-bandwidth users

?

Edit: answering myself.

There are least four aspects to the delayed display of images that I can imagine.

1) delay from loading time to when the download is triggered

2) delay and annoyance caused by the time fade-in itself takes

3) delay caused by not progressively painting the image while it is being downloaded

4) perhaps most important to modern designers: avoiding slowing down the mobile browser by avoiding decoding images that the user has already scrolled past.

I think #4 is why desktop users with 10x faster CPUs and connections suffer.

I do think this is the wrong way to go about solving problems like this.
No, because history has shown that shared libraries on any and all platforms inevitably become bundled into applications themselves (leaving one wondering WhyTF someone would choose something as unnecessarily complex as Docker over, you know, static linking).

Those who do not know history are doomed to reinvent it, poorly. Or something like that.
A Physics Professor on how you can grade a test
Ridership is pretty closely guarded. Don't expect Uber to willingly release anything that could even be used to infer what ridership might be.
Of course not, and I trust most HN readers not to take it that way. We like to be open about how we approach these questions.
I have a mother and a sister and a wife and a daughter. OF COURSE I want companies like Uber to burn when sexual harassment is a standard practice and "bosses" either look the other way or chip in.
thanks for the techniques, I'll read 'Mind over mood' and/or try meditation techniques.
I suspect that the dynamic will look like 1) non-human species extinction from habitat loss; 2) disruption of human civilization and possible collapse from food shortages and conflict; 3) human and ecological recovery; 4) recovered or new human civilization; 5) more ecological recovery.

With luck, we'll only get part way into 2, and it won't be too bad. But those positive feedbacks are frightening.
How to check your Linux servers for rootkits and malware
I agree, this bit struck me:

"The key idea of taking good notes in class is to write down as much as possible."

I guess the post does mention to adapt strategies based on the teacher's style, but I found (some/most) lecturers I had were just speed-writing on the blackboards as fast as possible (95 perhaps?), in barely legible writing, while also explaining the concepts.

My calc & linear lecturers were like a weird, comical race where the lecturers were master speed-writers with a side of obfuscation, so not only couldn't I keep up sometimes with the notes, the actual verbal explanation/concepts were falling by the wayside.

As an aside I had this lady's father for calc:

I personally haven't spent too much time looking at Dart, but I find it pretty suspicious that TypeScript is on Google's list of approved languages for projects, while Dart is interestingly missing. I'm sure there's upsides to Dart, but I would certainly need to spend more time with it to make a judgement call.

I'm pretty sure GP is talking about CPU low-power state like OP did, not OS sleep. They're entirely different things.
If they go public, they will HAVE to release their financial statements (audited & signed off) and then we will be learning what is what.
Surprisingly I have not run into those compile time issues. Maybe it's just my company's own infrastructure, but our TS projects, which can get rather large, all recompile in less than five seconds.

Sounds like a rehash of this: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_map.asp in JS, perhaps designed by someone unable to construct an adequate search engine query to solve the problem they thought they had but having access to a manual for JS. Compound that with the religious zeal that invariably (well - quite often) follows initiation into the sect around a newly discovered programming language. The manual may not actually exist but consist of a few links to Stackoverflow.

"Never attribute to malice that ..." as Mr Halon might say. I've found out later that I've re-invented the wheel with a system more than once (mine obviously sported Fandango tyres) and laughed at several other single axis rotation optimised load bearing solution implementations with minimised frictional components and thrust load resistance.

Experience is a wonderful thing - your's and theirs (and mine)

Sorry, I just chose the image because TypeScript's official hero image is a Seattle skyline. I hope I didn't disappoint - I love Seattle though, I can't wait to be back this year for //build.
If it is fair use to create transformative data from scanned books, could the Internet Archive work with universities and commerical entities to create an open license corpus of data that is derived from their collection of scanned books?

Yeah true BBQ is the way to go. Some people think BBQ includes direct flames on a gas grill.

I do use a small propane grill during the week sometimes though (small Weber Q which I recommend for this purpose). I've taken it to the beach and to friends before.

Def shouldn't be peeking as you mentioned. As the saying goes -
if you're lookin you ain't cookin!
Just applied!
Very late to the conversation!

I'm not going to offer an opinion, but just anecdotal evidence. We don't use Slack, but since we have Office 365 I was tasked with evaluating if Microsoft Teams was something we should start using instead of Skype, etc.

I have advised to wait. I was seeing similar metrics to what OP is describing where the Teams Client was using 200+ Mb of RAM (many times more than VISUAL STUDIO).

Also the UI seemed laggy. I'm not 100% sure it is Electron, but the installer and interface seemed as much.
Nobody disputes that better planning would be better, or that they should not have let everyone on board.

However, mistakes happen. For operational reasons, now the flight had a smaller capacity. Could have been that the seatbelt for a seat didn't work, or weight & balance issues.

At that point, it strikes me as perfectly legit to seek volunteers, and then, well, disembark pax involuntarily (while giving them all the help and compensation that they're entitled to, and more).

That's hardly "intentionally screwing over paying passengers".
The nature of personal libraries has changed a lot, even in the past couple of decades. In the past you might come across a book and then never see it again, even with some effort to find it. Today, just about any book you are interested in can be purchased on demand.
I'm with you there. I hate sweet potatoes and would expect to be able to block certain sides from being in my orders.
My compile time is very fast (near instant), but I split up my projects into a zillion private modules. Adds some complexity but great for tdd.

TS has been worth it to me, even if once in a while the compiler is too fussy like you say.
I have read critique's and found their logic and understanding lacking. The same way they find my logic and understanding lacking.

Both sides are echo chambers because neither side can prove anything. Philosophy is wild like that. The only thing you can do is think for yourself.
Maybe? It's also significant that Rachel had to handle a lot of huge fires while at Google, all over the globe: China, the Street View Wi-Fi incident, the European reception of privacy policy changes, the Books lawsuits, antitrust actions and a lot more. Yet, she couldn't survive two years at Uber.
Just difficult to want to deploy it all again, I guess. Especially since you guys _still_ lack basic packages for common distributions.
They can't go public under PR siege.
I agree with both of these sentiments. I think that's because OpenBSD prefers to move more slowly until they can be sure a thing is absolutely right. Innovation in OpenBSD tends to be unsexy and carefully considered. FreeBSD pushes the envelope in a lot of areas to deliver features, with more inherent risk.

Both are valid, and result in very different operating systems. These days most of my work can be fit into the OpenBSD envelope, which makes me feel especially good.
Make sure to have an up-to-date backup of the important bits on the drive (I'm using rsnapshot [1] with a 1h interval, backing up to a mirrored server), otherwise just use the thing for what it was intended to do. I've had quite a few magnetic drives fail without warning as well so I assume storage to be unreliable and act in accordance.

I'm not sure what you're trying to convey. Most/All? modern JavaScript engines compile JavaScript (including v8).
I feel the same way. I'm eager to use Flow, but their tooling is just so far behind. Until it catches up I'm using TypeScript, which is much, much better than nothing :)
I just tried to read the next lecture's readings beforehand so that I'd know what questions to ask the teacher while I had them there.
That's a good point! We used to have a video, but it was hard to maintain, but we should revisit that.

We have some different graphics in our Slack App Directory description: https://slack.com/apps/A0G9XHRE0-memo-notes-at-work - do you find these more helpful?
This is more of a usage problem that anything else. If your organization makes decisions based on synchronous communications, without stopping to notice who wasn't included and get their input before final decisions are made, that is a cultural problem, not a tooling problem.
You can get it today! Let's Note SZ6.
That was always a tension for me at university. Do I ask a question, because I'm stumped, this may be confusing others, and most people are too scared to do it? Or am I just holding up the class?

No idea what people thought, or if I crossed the line. If they're too shy to ask questions they're probably too shy to reprimand me for it.
Please tell what you like better. I was surprised when even the flow lead at FB said it doesn't really provide any advantage over TS.

I think scala.js is having better integration these days (due to typings etc.) But still not 100%.

But I would switch to all-scala if it ever had a dev-friendly 100% integration strategy.
I'm not absolving them of anything. What happened was wrong, no doubt about it. I'm making a best effort to explain why it's unreasonable to think that flights will never end up in this "oversold" situation.

By your logic they better go ahead and just block of 20 seats. You know, just in case they need to re-position a B747 crew. Wonder what tickets will cost when they can only sell 30 seats on those 50 seaters.
