I'm not a FB analytics expert but to me, it seems like it would be better to get statistics from a bunch of "bots" that saw posts from the audience side. Correlating with other creators still seems to be a very limited form of analysis.

Of course, one wouldn't have to do any of that if Facebook cooperates and transparently explains to the publishers how the zero-sum game has been reprioritized against them.
Thanks for your explanation.
Looks like k8s is designed by Google with Google in mind - where data is somewhere over network and main problem is to manage code. I just thought it could be perfect solution to completely abstract and isolate such small services and move them around on local hardware with one push of a button, but it seems I'll have to think about external ways to manage data replication.
It's certainly a worthwhile distinction. Especially in the modern day where 'rpg' elements have been tacked on to everything. Not a lot of actual role playing in something like Mass Effect.
It may be a regulatory ("artificial") advantage, but I'd still count it as a comparative advantage.

Nice site!

It would be great if you could keep track of what people Add with the "Add your own!" box, that way you include those basic things without having people type them in each time. For instance, I noticed plain Cheese and Eggs are missing and I suppose others would want those as well.
I don’t know where in the EU you are but, in the UK I buy Vanguard funds (mix of LS100[0] & LS80[1]) through an S&S ISA[2] and a SIPP[3].

Pretty straight forward.

The ongoing for the funds are 0.22%, the ISA platform 0.25% and the SIPP 0.3%

This has been brought up here before: WFH doesnt work for companies that don't have a culture for it. When a large number of employees work remotely, people seem to like it. Someone should do a poll on it.
Distributing those patches would be against the license. I'm looking for any indication that the set of people willing to a) download a patch; and b) use tools to apply it on their own; and c) build it; and d) be unmoved about the ethical implications of the whole thing; is at all significantly larger than the set of people willing to open a hex editor to poke at some bytes for the same purpose.

> Huh, I started that premise and I'm continuing to argue it. You might be thrown off by HN's busted comment nesting.

I'm asking that your argument is internally consistent—that you're not trying to advance some thought, and the backtrack to a position where you advance another one that's at odds with the original. I don't see how this suggests that there's confusion about how to read threaded comments.

I left FB ~4 years ago. One of the straws that broke the camel for me was that it was obvious FB was "curating" my feed for me. Without notifying or consulting me. Posts from friends wouldn't show in my feed and vice versa. The privacy issues were bad enough but when I couldn't trust the platform to fulfill the only need I had for it, I walked.

I'm far better for it.
If the court provided a meaningful alternative I might accept this argument, but given some of the poor track records of expert witnesses, and given that people will bring in their own personal knowledge regardless of what is said. This is especially true since contesting validity of a source costs money and people don't have infinite money in court.

The only conclusion is that the current legal system is so broken that the only reasonable judgment is not guilty.

Introducing SSL for SaaS
> If everyone owns fractions of every company, what are the incentives for good governance at any one company? If it goes bankrupt, it's only a tiny fraction of everyone's portfolio.

And all the other companies in the same market segment will then gain a share of the customers and income of the now bankrupt company, so there is little to no effect overall.

Of course this is exactly why some people choose to invest in markets instead of individual companies, because that has less risk.

Of course this is also why other people choose to invest in companies they assessed are way ahead of their market, because that is more profitable.
> When was it sufficient, then?

From the point of view of the country, I think the terms being insufficient to meaningfully restructure things is good and intentional. There's a lot of negative in our government, but there's a lot of positive as well. We wouldn't ever want a single, charismatic sociopath in place long enough to single handedly destroy our country.

A huge portion of our tax money goes towards helping our fellow citizens, through Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. I view this as a positive thing, as I recognize that I am one accident away from needing any to all of those.

Collapse how? And what would the fallout be, that investors lose some money through lawyer fees and auction write-downs? The value added is in the services of trading the underlying equities, not the companies issuing the actual stock, which are as sound as the market indices they replicate.
I love the REPL in the Julia programming language. What makes me love it is combination of many small things which makes it practical: (1) remember past written statements (2) completes both functions/types/variables and previously written statements (3) Whenever you write strings you get directory and file name completions. This is amazingly handy when doing some kind of scripting job. (4) The ability to jump into shell mode and help mode by just writing a single character. (5) The integration between the Julia REPL and Unix shell. When in shell mode my Julia variables are accessible as normal shell variables. It is really the combination of all these things which makes it feel very productive to work with.
Right, I can see where this idea comes from. On the other hand, if we look at the things in factual terms, pretty huge (even by today standards) undertakings were done in the times of rolodex and rotary phone. Bloody combined arms wars were fought and won on several theatres simultaneously over the globe in less time than U.S. involvement in Iraq. People got sent to the the Moon on a relatively short notice. The 747, which is still one of the most complex planes around by 2017 standard, took 3 years from concept to the maiden flight.

If we take any of the past achievements today, would you intuitively expect it to take longer nowadays? Take the 747 again: do increased friction, bugs in logistic software and Slack downtimes really offset productivity boost from model-based structural engineering CAD packages?

So I see how this idea might come up at a lunch discussion, but kindof sceptical to taking it at face value.

On February the 15th 2003, millions of people marched against the Iraq war across around 800 cities - with possibly as many as 1 million in London alone. This made it into the Guinness Book of Records as the largest ever anti-war rally.

In a way, you do. The inputs are well defined (mouse and keyboard), and the outputs (graphics) can be captured fairly easily. Interpreting those outputs is a lot harder than interpreting a stream of "character A at point (X,Y,Z), character B at point...", I agree.
This doesn't add up for me yet, because I don't understand what the supposed motive is.

Authoritarians (like cops, broadly speaking) have always tried to spy on people who might subvert their own authority and the status quo, like protestors, activists, and the journalists who cover such things and who keep in touch with such people. It has ever been thus.

Social reformers sometimes actually change things - think of the labor movement, the civil rights movement - but foreign terror against random civilians usually only re-enforces the social order and the status of cops. The cops are, and have historically been, more concerned with domestic journalists than with foreign terrorists or even actual criminals.

"Cops caught spying on journalists and activists, won't even apologize" has been a pretty common headline for many decades.

We could also call regulation and safety laws gendered because statistically men work more often in unsafe and dangerous environments.

When people (practically all men) was exploited to work in coal mines by debt slavery, the solution was not to abolish the mining industry. The deaths, the humiliation and the low value of (poor, young) males life were resolved in the US by identifying the most exploitable aspects of those practices and surgely removing it by regulation.

Give the sex industry the same treatment. Regulate away the worst part and tax it heavily so money can be rerouted into making it even safer in a self-sustaining way.

Big clients tend to be very slow at signing contracts because their legals would examine every word and will keep asking you to revise the contract. Furtheremore, real big clients tend to be slow at adopting the techology they just bought, so you may not get feedback quick enough to improve your product. Big clients are more likely to argue for discount as they would use "I am big name" as leverage.

We have made surveillance legal, and provided a framework of protections, under Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act.

The police especially have strong powers to use surveillance.

Instead of your 7th new programming language, learn accounting, read annual reports of corporations, write a profit and loss analysis for three years forward (this will be vague, nevertheless spell it out the best you can) and know worst-case scenarios.

Work out simple and efficient ways for rock solid end-user experience. Anticipate lots of time spent with customers.

Help others, friends are the most valuable. Protect your plans in the early phases and be prudent with your capital, prepare for the long term. Do not be afraid in taking risks, patience will pay.

You say that like the current situation is no better than what came before the civil rights movement.
I get some of these, but "don't procrastinate" and "understand the entire market" are kind of ridiculous. You might as well throw "know everything" and "work hard" in there.
Given how easy a group can be swayed and controlled given our current centralization of media/culture, our technology, and our understanding of psychology, is it possible for there to ever again be a people's democracy?

Why Old-Fashioned Computer Manuals and Books Are Still Needed
Space industry software is siloed in exactly this way. I write code, someone else unit tests it (C), someone else entirely writes integration tests (Java), then someone else writes a final integration test (Java).

It's horrendously redundant and wouldn't be applicable to most software, but it does work well; when bugs are picked up by the third or fourth layer of testers, which happens from time to time.

If you have a PSU that big then that probably isn't the problem. I thought you might be using the PSU that comes with those extender boxes and they usually are very puny (250 W or so).

Do you run the 4 GPUs in the extender?

I think you're on the money, there isn't a good "A for B" analogy.

That said, I like formulas for this sort of thing, whther they yield the final solution or not. Uber's sentence from the article could be an alternative:

"You push a button and in five minutes a Mercedes picks you up and takes you where you want to go."

"You push a button and you can read 26.4% faster."

That still feels a little vague and evasive, I think.

"You push a button and your book is re-formatted and coloured so that you can read faster."

I think the parent commenter is more concerned about the economy's overall stability, and believes passive investors could be exploited due to mis-pricing index fund underlyings. I didn't interpret it as a worry about missing out on active investment, but I could be wrong.
Total market cap of S&P 500 have increased from $13T to $21T from 2012 to 2017 without having corresponding underlying financial growth in companies. This $8T difference feels tantalizingly close to new investment money flowed in via ETFs. I am wondering if current rise in S&P 500 can almost entirely attributed to new money flowing in to ETFs. If this thesis is correct then we can continue to expect more bull market for next few years as we are very likely not even half way through this cycle of money flowing from active strategies to passive strategies. In other words rise of S&P 500 indexes would become self full filling prophecy for at least next few years.
If worker ownership would produce superior outcomes it would prevail in the market. But in reality all practical experience shows that it does not. The old left excuse that workers are poor and can not start business can no longer works.

Yes, each GPUs has a 4x -> 16x and a 4x-4x extender, in addition to the m.2 -> PCI-e 4x adapter.

So many potential failure points in there. The sole use case is CUDA. Essentially I wanted a portable cluster with GPUs and that did the work for a couple of month. Now it's getting more serious so the switch to T630 makes sense, and I repurposed the NUCs into the control plane of the K8s cluster.
