A 1.00001x speedup really isn't worth getting out of bed for unless you're working in a very specialised environment; your time is likely worth a lot more than whatever you saved.
I read it as a young teenager while listening repeatedly to one of my few cassette tapes - Beethoven's violin concerto on one side, 5th piano concerto on the other. By the end of the book I was having trouble mentally distinguishing between book and music. The piano concerto in particular still calls to mind the true protagonists in all of Tolkien: mountains, rivers, lakes, forests and plains, rather than people.
SK T-Brain | Research Scientist / Engineer | Seoul, Korea | Depends on experience | Full-time, Onsite, VISA | https://www.facebook.com/notes/sk-t-brain/sk-t-brain-careers...

Please feel free to contact us at jobs@sktbrain.com.
Of the 6-7 breaches I've heard the details of, they were detected because either:

- an engineer stumbled upon clear evidence of a rootkit, like a leftover dotfile or shell history entries

- the exfiltrated data got used and someone noticed

(Different story for active intrusions, where the intruder is detected when they first breach a system. At least anecdotally, the passive after-the-fact detection above seems more common, though.)
> The front page had this interactive realtime story of how Hillary is supposedly winning by overwhelming margin, when it was very apparent that that's opposite of the truth.

I remember that interactive story. It was not what you describe. It was showing Hillary's chances of winning throughout the evening - she started at 90% or so, based on the polling averages they'd been running on a regular basis throughout the entire election season. Then, as the evening wore on, and results were not as the polling would indicate, her chances of winning dropped, dropped, and then obviously went to zero.

Now, I won't argue that in hindsight that was a pretty bad feature to run. I think it vastly overestimated reader ability to understand statistical probabilities, as well as the accuracy of polling data (the Brexit vote ought to have been an indicator to be cautious). But it absolutely wasn't showing false data that indicated Hillary was winning when she was not.
The thing I have to do most often is find out where a function spends its time. It's a trivial problem. But there's no good out-of-the-box solution. I ended up creating one [1]. Example:

with Timer('Task') as timer:
with timer.child('First step'):
sleep(1)
for _ in range(5):
with timer.child('Baby steps'):
sleep(.5)

Outputs:

Task: 3.520s
Baby steps: 2.518s (71%)
First step: 1.001s (28%)

This way, you know where most of the time is spent and what you need to optimise.

It's on PyPI as well:

pip install timer_cm

The code is a grand 42 lines. But once you've had to do it a few times it becomes so tedious to code up from scratch that it's much nicer to have a ready-made solution.

Yes, but how many people really need better than netbook performance? Most knowledge workers only need email, excel and web browser. SaaS is eating desktop. Modern smartphone is capable of 3d games and even VR.

Dropping prices temporarily until a newcomer is strangled is something we've heard of in the past, but this time the competitor has a huge and growing mobile market, so the threat and lower prices are likely to stay around for a long time.

How Gravitational Waves Were Discovered (2016)
Nobody recommended the Silmarillion to me - I bought it when I was a teenager, after reading LotRs. People buy it looking for more material from someone they enjoy reading. (and yes I found it a boring slog)
What is stopping manufacturers from adding a cell radio to existing PCs?
Grew up in Philly. We always called it a 'stoop'. Just one of those micro-regional lexicon differences, I suppose.

By the time you have declared a major, you will have taken the prerequisite courses already. Some programming knowledge is required, but that can be acquired while at university, not before.
In addition to being a better analogy, I am told it is possible to replicate the effect with a physical capacitor and a gas-discharge lamp: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4600996
I don't see how reporting a politican's comments were "carrying water". At the time Obama said that you could keep your doctor I don't think there was any way to disprove his statement, because the ACA hadn't been enacted yet.
That was certainly the position of my linguistics department at TU Berlin, influenced largely by Professor C.J. Bailey.

Very much an out-of-the-box thinker, but ("but?") very smart and usually (always?) right.

I also love the Silmarillion and have no idea why some find it hard to read.

It is so much more epic. Did you find the Balrog in LotR impressive? Imagine a hundred balrogs riding on dragons storming the the elven city Gondolin. You find Sauron an impressive evildoer? He was only the Lieutenant to Morgoth. You can argue that this is just inconsistent unedited early material, but I don't care. ;)

Thanks for your reply.

I assume many startups use AWS or GCE (with auto scaling) and thus don't necessarily setup/SSH into each and every machine/VM. Wouldn't this make rootkit detection more difficult?

Dubai has engaged on vast spending to ensure that it has other revenue sources other than oil. It required a massive bailout a few years ago from it's neighbour Abu Dhabi, whose wealth derives from oil:

I'm really excited about ARM laptops, but only if:

* They have laptop-class performance, not tablet class performance
* They can have more than 4GB of RAM
* You can put reasonable sized standard SATA SSDs in them, or user-replaceable M.2 drives.
* You can easily wipe Windows off them and put Linux on it.

Compelling Science Fiction issue 7
You're not wrong, of course; my use of "cult" here was mainly just a cheesy potshot because I think it's silly and I don't think it thinks it is, at least not the way you describe - but perhaps that's only because I've never seen it save from the outside.

("Nature is Good" strikes me as lacking nuance, though. I see what you're going for, but toothache is natural, too.)

Judging by his written works, Wilson seems like he would've been quite a man to know. I'd like to be able to say I'm not so small a person as to envy you that opportunity just a little, but honesty compels me otherwise. He was kind of a minor hero to me in my youth and early adulthood, seeing as Illuminatus! helped me gain the perspective to get through some very difficult times in my life; if nothing else, I'd have liked the chance to thank him for that.
Why were you replacing gRPC?
I guess we all have pet peeves but this one (while interesting) is a bit silly. Pillow designers are looking to create an attractive pillow that will sell - let's face it, a dead butterfly is more aesthetically pleasing than a living one due to the outstretched wings.
The comment I'm replying to is talking about pyramid schemes so for clarification: the subject of this thread is ponzi schemes on an alt-coin but my belief is that the altcoins themselves are a classic pyramid scheme.

>there is no guarantee of return, or even the promise of return

You should check out some altcoin subreddits and /biz/ and I think you might disagree with yourself.

"Frgtpsswrdlame-coin is going to the moon! You guys need to hop onto this, I already have a 100% return. Plus it's safe because frgtpsswrdlame-coin has <encryption gibberish>. It's still early so get in!"

"Buy the dip! If you look at frgtpsswrdlame-coin's charts you can see that there's a <technical analysis gibberish> pattern forming which means this is going to bounce right back!"

Perhaps what seperates this from a more traditional pyramid scheme like door-to-door knife sales is that you can't point to the guy who convinced you to buy in and you can't point to the guys at the top of the hierarchy but they still exist and they still misled you. It's just obfuscated because of the internet.
It's pretty lame to create a fake profile just to post a lame troll post.
