I would point you to Netflix, a large company with a decent culture. They didn't ask every employee for input (AFAIK). They hired one person and gave her the time and resources and access to upper management and tasked her with coming up with the culture document. 12K people in a stadium for an hour or even 4 hours won't be productive like you want it to be. In the end only a few people will speak up because not everyone speaks up in a stadium full of people.
You don't. The card has a CPU on it that's the only thing that has access to the key and just refuses to authenticate any more after a few attempts.

"The SpaceX turbopump was an entirely new, clean sheet design contracted to Barber-Nichols, Inc. in 2002 who performed all design, engineering analysis, and construction; the company had previously worked on turbopumps for the RS-88 (Bantam) and NASA Fastrac engine programs."

and

> only made things worse by making everyone underestimate the severity of the situation.

The point is that there is absolutely no action that the passengers can take the influence the result in a good way, and plenty of actions that the passenger can take to influence the result in a bad way.

At this point, the pilot is thinking that he's trying to get the airplane working again, and if he doesn't he'll have to ditch somewhere and evacuate the plane.

If everybody is calm and follows the orders of the stewardesses, the chances of survival are much higher than if people freak out and try doing actions to maximize their own personal survival.

Again, the main point is that your credibility after this accident is of little import. And you want people to underestimate the severity of the situation - since nothing they can do can help the situation.

> If one of the engines is spewing smoke and rattling like a broken washing machine, there's probably enough panic already. Everything is obviously not going to be fine!

Considering that most two engine planes can land and fly for considerable distances with one engine, everything _is_ going to be fine, and your job is to calm everybody down. A simple statement saying that we're having technical issues with one engine, but we're equipped to make a safe landing with one engine and to expect a lot of turbulence is infinitely better than screaming over the intercom "We're fucked, get your prayer beads out. Only God can save us now"
A lot of fuss, but if you look at the presentation slide in the middle of the page (https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PyyPpTv1p7g/WU7hMEBnm4I/AAAAAAAAE... for reference) it is clear that MIT is not stifling anything or shutting anyone's mouth.

MIT is just moving to IPv6.

Actually... MIT forcing an entire generation of future engineers to deal with IPv6... That will literally push innovation.

I think the question is a tad ambiguous. Are you talking about learning from scratch or building on what you already know?

The common thread in both is mastering the foundations. I know this is controversial, but I believe in book learning before playing whack-a-mole around the internet, simply because you aren't at the point where you can differentiate the signal from the noise.

After the foundations, I learn on a need-to-know basis, which is generally more applicative: if you are trying something that's never been done before, then the perspective is top-down instead of bottom-up.

I don't use notes, todos, online tracking, or whatever goal-oriented resources people are using. I don't see learning as a goal-oriented exercise so much as an accidental accumulation of knowledge. Knowledge gained best from a genuine interest in the subject at hand, which often leads into a genuine struggle to learn some topic, either because it is genuinely difficult or it something you find boring but necessary to learn to continue.

I'm an autodidact, and really, the best advice I can give is learn yourself first. Be absolutely honest with yourself about your interests, your limitations, and the answers, via a long journey of trial and error, will eventually come to you. The fact is, we aren't all able to fit into a mold, and no matter how much advice you read... advice reading is pretty much worthless without a grounding on failure.
Yeah, it has something like 256 64bit GPRs. Not even the big monster CPUs have that many microarchitectual registers to rename to.
JWST, like ground-based telescopes now, will be able to separate the light from massive Jupiter-like exoplanets from the light of their host stars. But it won't be able to see things at a resolution like this image of Betelguse (so no surfaces of planets... that's quite a long time away).
Excel's programmability is vastly underrated for some reason. It's easily one of the most high-level and successful languages ever, fulfilling a wide variety of roles for countless people, so simple that a child could use it, and so flexible that your boss probably does, too.

I don't disagree with any of this, but it seems worth noting that Wikipedia wasn't significant when Google was first becoming huge. Google solved the problem of "where is this information?" by finding all the information, but Wikipedia gives an alternate solution by having all the information.

My internet use would be vastly worse without Google, it's true. But these days, perhaps 90% of my Googling is optional - I already have a strong guess at which site will give me what I want, the search bar is just a faster route to get there. If I want Stack Overflow, or Wikipedia, or Genius, or Nationmaster, I already know that's where I want to go. When Google's top result answers my question via a site I've never been to, that's a huge win for Google. When they answer it via a Wikipedia link, well...

I'd still give Google slot 1, but it's not as obvious as it was pre-Wikipedia.

(To fact-check this comment, I Googled "Google" and "Wikipedia", to get to the Wikipedia page for each. Kind of telling.)

This is what I take from it: by revealing your cards there's less room for manipulation. The buyer already has preconceptions that could range from:

- This will not work; I didn't see this in the screenshots

- I don't understand what I saw and now I have irrelevant questions

If the buyer tells you the pain points, and only the pain points, as a seller you can focus on _those_ and cut out the bullshit. It makes manipulating easier as a seller, and as a buyer you're left to trust the seller that everything will work out in the end.

Haven't got the experience to say whether or not this is a good thing.

Ask HN: How do you train creativity?
Creativity is often regarded to as something a person either has or doesn't have. However, I don't see any reason why I couldn't improve my creativity via purposeful training.

Some ideas I had so far are along the lines of:

- Reserve free time each day for my mind to just wonder

- Create something new each day, as small as it may be (draw a doodle, write a short poem, invent a story, write down a short melody or chord progression)

- Get drunk more often

- Purposefully wake up in the middle of the night for a few minutes and write down anything that comes to mind

- Avoid listening to audiobooks when I'm walking the dog

- Keep a scratch pad handy at all times

So I'm curious to know - are you actively trying to train your creativity? If so, how? Which methods worked for you? Which methods proved to be futile? Are you aware of interesting scientific work on the subject?
Yes. Markets are a means, not an ends. When markets undermine basic fairness, they are gross.

There are advantages to being on a private network behind a firewall ... and they could still offer a DNS name and routing to your computer if it was on a private network. It's likely that the only difference is that you'd also have to specify what ports you want exposed to the outside world. This is a win for you from a security perspective - having additional layers of security won't hurt you.
And until Google and AMP came along, there was no stick to make authors do this.
If people aren't paying the generators, they don't maintain their windmills and can't send electricity into distribution. In Texas you pay the retail company that's selling you the power. The distribution is a wholesale company that just sells the generator distribution capacity and maintains the lines.

So yes, if people stopped buying from companies selling wind and solar only the companies selling gas and coal would be putting energy into the grid.
Moving IPv4 to NAT and moving to IPv6 seems orthogonal.
> Calling it imaginary money isn't helpful here.

"Imaginary" in the sense that it's unrealized in the currency in which it's described, exchangeable only if there are enough people willing to pay the market rate at the moment. "Unrealized" may be better than "imaginary", that's a fair criticism. So it wasn't $14m USD, it was ETH whose market value at the time of calculating was potentially $14m.

To pay employees or themselves I'd also bet they cashed out a slice. I'd love to see a tracker for % of ETH raised at ICO and subsequently sold off. I wouldn't be surprised if the recent flash crash[1] was an ICO selloff.

Well, let's do the math.

ALMA consists of 66 antennas, most of which are 12 meters in diameter. That's about 7000 square meters of receiving area.

Betelgeuse is 642 light years away, which is 6x10^18 meters. The area of a sphere with that diameter is about 10^38 square meters. So 10^-34 of the power emitted from Betelgeuse ends up falling on the ALMA array.

According to Wikipedia, the luminosity of Betelgeuse is 90-150 thousand solar luminosity units, which is about 4x10^26 watts. Let's call it 10^31 watts. So the total power received from Betelgeuse by ALMA is about a milliwatt.

But that's the total power, and the ALMA array only receives at 0.32 to 3.6 mm. To figure out what proportion of Betelgeuse's power falls in this range we need to integrate over Betelgeuse's spectrum, both the total spectrum and then this range in order to find the ratio. That part of the calculation is not so easy. But let's see what we can do. Let's assume that Betelgeuse has a blackbody spectrum. Its temperature is 3500K. We can use this handy dandy blackbody spectrum calculator:

http://www.spectralcalc.com/blackbody_calculator/blackbody.p...

When you crunch the numbers it turns out that about 10^-7 of the total power falls in the range 0.32 to 3.6mm. So the total power received by ALMA is about 10^-10 watts.

0.32-3.6mm is in the far infrared. A photon at this wavelength has an energy of about one meV, or about 10^-22 Joules. So 10^-10 watts is about 10^12 photons per second.

I don't know how long the exposure times are, but my guess is that they are measured in hours.

I find it valuable for another reason: I'm always constrained for time, so I might not get through an entire book. If that book is deeply technical, it discourages me from continuing, because I have to take the time to re-skim what was read previously.

I somewhat recently started trying the above method. With multiple iterations through the book, I can get an idea of the information and at the very least know where it find it and that it exists. Depending on the iteration, I'll have some notes to fall back on, or have some important concepts underlined.
The US government has pots of money they use to buy flights on unproven rockets, that's how SpaceX got a contract for STP-2 as the 2nd flight of Falcon Heavy. Falcon 1's first two flights got some revenue from DARPA and the Air Force ORS, and flight 3 from NASA. (All failed.)

Great work!
It's fun to ponder how it will be that bright at every point that is the same distance. Imagine a sphere centered on Betelgeuse with a 600 light year radius with Earth on the surface of this sphere. The fact that enough photons reach my eyeballs to be able to see it at night is difficult to comprehend - the amount of energy needed to sprinkle every square millimeter of a sphere that size is just unimaginable. Now make that 100,000 times brighter during a supernova event -- crazy town. I feel like imagining the energy from a star spread out on a galactic scale helps me understand and appreciate the magnitudes better than any large number of luminosity or watts or photos can.
Can I talk to you about an idea I have regarding automating authentication extensions? There's no email in your profile, I'm afraid.
If it went down like it did at CMU, IT polarized into a camp that wanted to maintain the traditional stack and a camp that wanted to tear it down and replace it with contemporary cloud services. When the latter won, they wasted no time in salting the earth of the former's territory.

Awesome project.

Despite the flaws, the nice thing with VNC is its universality to support any apps on a computer. Using HTML5 in a browser limits the scope of things we could encapsulate as environments, and makes it less "universe".

However, there is a difference between the universality of the tech stack and the exposed interface. In my opinion, the future universe would be rich clusters of RL environments with unified API, each of which implemented using different underlying technology to meet the desired synchronicity and frame performance.

HTML5 could deliver one of such clusters.
Exactly, and Alex is probably not the only one who thinks that way:

I have to agree heavily and with your previous parent comment. Bad media, content, entertainment, recreational activities does not produce bad children.

Resumption? None that I can find in sshd_config but there are several related to increasing tolerances to prevent it from terminating in the first place.

ClientAliveCountMax default is 3
ClientAliveInterval default is 0

Ergo by default ClientAlive messaging isn't used. If Interval were set to 60, the connection would be terminated after 3 minutes.

From man sshd_config:
TCPKeepAlive
"Specifies whether the system should send TCP keepalive messages to the other side. If they are sent, death of the connection or crash of one of the machines will be properly noticed. However, this means that connections will die if the route is down temporarily, and some people find it annoying. On the other hand, if TCP keepalives are not sent, sessions may hang indefinitely on the server, leaving "ghost" users and consuming server resources.

The default is yes (to send TCP keepalive messages), and the server will notice if the network goes down or the client host crashes. This avoids infinitely hanging sessions."

That's probably not that interesting because it's considered spoofable. Maybe more interesting are the client side ssh_config options which allow for opportunistic multiplexing:

ControlMaster
ControlPath
ControlPersist
They also shopped in local stores. I don't think it's the reason to close them.

I have written a simple tool called mann (https://github.com/soheilpro/mann) to help me remember little things that I learn when working in Bash/Zsh.

Basically, every time I learn something useful about a command, I add it to its mann page and then whenever I need it in the future, I simply run 'mann <command>' to find it.

Here's the current output of my 'mann sed', for example:

# Add char to beginning of each line
sed 's/^/#/'

# Replace with newline
sed 's/<oldvalue>/\'$'\n''/g'

# Replace newline
sed -e ':a' -e 'N' -e '$!ba' -e 's/\n/<newvalue>/g'

# Plus sign

# Digit

Thats clearly true of smaller companies. And there are larger companies that have significant real estate holdings as that is a major component of their business (McDonalds for instance).

But office/operations space being owned was generally viewed as inefficient for large companies that didn't have real estate ownership as a core function because its a pretty bad asset for a company both as a store of value and as an investment in innovation.
