Having moved to the US from a country that had a universal health care system, the idea of choosing a doctor was quite strange to me.

Luckily I have not really had a need, however my colleges have suggested that when the time comes looking to high profile clients is a good indicator of quality. i.e. if you have a knee issue goto the people that your local NFL/NBA team use for knee issues.

The idea is that they, and their team, have done more extensive research than an individual can. Of corse this assume that these Doctors are affordable.

To further complicate this suggestion I have heard that some sports people are willing to sacrifice longer term results (once their careers are over) for short term results (at the height of their careers) and so choose physicians accordingly.
Google photos on android does this to some degree. It suggests cleaning up space by deleting all backed up photos. You can pin photos to keep them on the phone.

I got an S8 in April and between 4k video and shooting in raw I was able to hit 40 gigs a few weeks ago. It is nice to be able to have it all stored off the phone at full rez.

I did have one issue over the 4th. I visited family who did not have wifi and had a heated ceiling which consisted of a few thousand feet of copper cabling. We were 2000ft from a 4g tower but the wires made a decent faraday cage so I had to go outside to show them family photos. I doubt anyone will have the same issue but it did show me what the photos app would feel like without cell data.
Its not about closure, is all the Clojurescript interop issues/gotchas, what's the correct way to do interop today in Clojurescript?
> So what? Those words probably had a good argument behind them, at the time.

> In the MS-DOS days, compilers weren't as good as today, so handwritten ASM paid off.

Just like C compilers had enough money spent into their optimizers, that eventually made them competitive against Assembly, so can C#,Go,D, <whatever language> have enough work placed into them, that eventually they will become competitive against C.

People believed they could make C competitive against Assembly, just like they believe they could make C++ competitive against C.

So it is a matter if one wants to believe and lead, or don't and follow.
Since Btrfs also has snapshots, it seems perfectly adequate for a root FS. It hasn't seemed important to me to run a ZFS root, even though I have all my user data in ZFS.

This is huge. Very excited for this! Is there support for private NPM repos? NPM looks for the registry URL and auth token in ~/.npmrc and uses that to authenticate.
Yes, I clearly misread that.

Part of that trend is because recommendation algorithms aren't all that interested in making recommendations anymore. They're interested in getting sales or views. To do this, they use dumber algorithms that are easier to understand ("people who bought this also bought...") and over-value recency. They're not helping you find new content, they're trying to prolong the time you're on youtube.

You do realize that's trust-on-first-connect aka self signed certigicates, right? Especially with LE, thats worse in every way to the CA model.

Pretty much client certificates minus PKI.

Please tell me about the parallelism problem? I love that Haskell can auto-parallelize and is very safe. But, I'm ready to kick it to the curb over stupid lazyiness-induced memory explosions. But I'd be sad to go back to having to worry about threads and safety.

Correction: Overriding POTUS is illegal and has consequences that do not include the planet being nuked.

They absolutely have the real authority (ability) to refuse the order, and then the real authority to prevent the nuke from being launched (by eating their key, shooting anybody else that comes into the room, shooting the key/console, etc).
Opt-in via published policy or some silly explicit checkbox?
Worth noting: Comcast slurping up FBI traffic won't be very profitable, I think. Assuming that the FBI is smart enough to use encrypted communication (https is really easy nowadays), Comcast is up for a challenge if they want to get interesting data.

Holy shit I hadn't even considered this, this is awesome. New story idea.
wildcard certs are not a solution to this problem. Sharing a private cert with all customers isn't what the solution does. every customer gets their own cert

That's not what I mean. I mean the same solution as described by michaelt above, that is, provide a different wildcard cert per user.

second letsenrypt has low limits of 20 certs per week. so imagine VLC added a Plex like streaming feature. they'd need far far more than 20 certs a day given how large their user base is

Remember that the limit is only on the number of new users; Let's Encrypt has a renewal exemption that lets you renew your certs even after hitting the 20/week limit. So while it might still not be enough for VLC, I don't think it's a problem for most projects. Plus you can always use more than one domain.
No one really has a choice with C, but its tally was very interesting..

I think there is a lot more vertical movement and the horizontal stuff might be a sideshow without considering overlap or experience with C or JavaScript as significant in how one transitions between purely competing languages.

But JavaScript's real problem for the analysis might be that its competition is largely excluded since the walled garden apps rarely have related code on GitHub, even if their language is present.
If you have a layer that knows there's another copy of the data on a different disk, that layer should be checking for bit-rot even if the individual drives have their own error correction.
"ending up with 20 Billion Population? That's doom, and their is no techno-savior"

Except for advances in vertical farming, green energy, advances in urban planning allowing people to live denser and more packed together...

We'll all be dead because earth can't handle the population... cira'1968:

https://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/01/us/the-unrealized-horrors...

"Dr. Ehrlich was so sure of himself that he warned in 1970 that “sometime in the next 15 years, the end will come.” By “the end,” he meant “an utter breakdown of the capacity of the planet to support humanity.”

So... by 1985, we will all be dead because DOOM!!!

Time and time again...

Now... can we all "get along"? Christians, Muslims, Chinese, Russians, etc? THAT isn't a technology problem - that's a humanity problem.

Can we feed everyone? We sure can... and advances in tech continue to push the envelope and there is no reason to believe that we can support many multiples of what we have now.

Is there an upper limit? Undoubtedly... are we near it? Hardly...
What you describe is, without a doubt, not only unethical but also illegal. A lawyer or accountant with confidential information on a current or former client who trades on that information violates SEC rules against insider trading, agency law prohibiting an agent from profiting from his position, and rules of professional responsibility. The first could send him to jail, the second would cost him his profits, and the third could cause him to lose his license to operate.

You can rip DVDs to .mkv files using MakeMKV and play them on nearly every device.

I only know that this is legal in Germany though.
Best I have figured out so far is owncloud plus resilio sync pro and then host it yourself. The former gives you Dropbox UI and apps and the latter gives you meta sync wherever you need it.
Sure. I figure if we ever get to the point where there aren't two major parties, it can either be fixed then, or we're under one party autocratic rule and it won't matter anymore.
You must not read HW errata or device drivers.

It's been posited that the main push for ZFS was perceived bugs in UFS that happened to be LSI firmware bugs once they had the capabilities of ZFS to detect them.
> I really need procedural macros to stabilize, otherwise it just puts too much pain on the UDF author.

Why exactly is that? I'd have expected a C wrapper to take care of most of that? Are you concerned about the Datum<->native type C macros?

Are you planning/hoping for this to be all safe, or is there going to be unsafety in the wrapper?
It belongs in the filesystem in exactly the same way that volume management belongs in the filesystem.

ZFS includes volume management, _naturally_. I say naturally, but that was a radical idea 15 years ago. Even now it's not universally accepted, but it's quite correct!

I wonder, how reliable is mounting a regular server via a sshfs connection? I sometime do it to edit static websites and it works.
Sure! I do think you are right about aggressive, anti-social behaviour in open-source project leaders.
Quality code you got there, thanks for open source it.
Does it matter a lot for this sort of application (which I assume is interactive data analysis)? I think if you're worried about performance then you want a back-end to map your computation out to a big cluster, no? Like, write OCaml, target hadoop would be the logical thing if you need HPC. Of course someone will have to write that compiler (not it). :P
How?

Bitrot occurs because the lower-abstraction level hardware fails. When you put a Hard-Drive into storage for say 5 years, the bits may change. Even if a Hard-drive remains in constant use for 5 years... if said files or directories aren't checked and double-checked constantly, the error-correction codes may fail over time.

Its a fundamentally different problem from Hard Drives that are being used constantly as say Swap.

Hard Drives typically include Hamming codes or ECC bits to address typical corruption issues.

-------------

The fundamental principle at hand here is as follows: to ensure integrity of files, you need to regularly check file data. Only the Filesystem would know which files were recently checked.
It all sounds nice, especially considering that the expansion of the code-literate demographic should eventually necessitate more intuitive tools than the languages & environments we use today, but it also seems intimidatingly different and severely under-supported. Overall, I feel like I can confidently ignore this project because it appears doomed to fail and/or ahead of its time.
It's still very sloppy thinking.
Say they disappear, so what? You're left in the exact same situation as before they've appeared, except with some money saved in the meantime.
Slightly of topic: A while a go I visited South Korea for the first time, and got weird looks whenever I pushed the button at crosswalks, that and the button talked back...Next day I'm again at a crossing with our Korean client and push the button, she starts laughing and tells me: I had no idea your were blind :) Turns out the button only calls out when it's safe to cross.

For serious exception safety, you have to be able to prove that all invariants all the code of your class relies on are kept between every 2 subsequent lines of your code in that class. Because exception can occur everywhere. And actually, I oversimplified, because often you must also know what happens in each and every operator you use, including implicit casting operators, and also in your destructors and constructors, including implicit ones. Each of those may or may not throw, and each of those may have some internal state, or modify your state in unexpected ways during an exception. RAII gives you primitives which you trust are written with exception safety w.r.t. their inner invariants. But you build some code on it, which has its own invariants. Do you prove them between every 2 lines of your code every time you change a line in your code? After I read enough about exception safety, I realized how hard it is to keep watertightly.
I can't speak to this design specifically, but in the US, an app like this should _request_ a time slot for crossing, which would get processed by the timing controller.
An attacker could use long range bluetooth antennas to pair at a distance, and request for the next 3 intersections, the high tech equivalent of pushing all the buttons in the elevator.

I also wasn't allowed to smoke pot, while enlisted.

Which is to say, the orders may not be followed by the persons at the switch. I make no claim that they will, or will not, be followed. I merely point out that rules aren't always followed.
I'm just playing along with the fiction at this point, so here's my response:

1. Order ISPS to switch off access to Google's servers and CDNs. Most internet traffic stops working as any website using a google CDN breaks, all analytics stops working, internet advertising breaks almost entirely, the internet is suddenly a less profitable and very scary, mostly unusable place. Google releases as its death-throes the fact that the ISPs are entirely to blame for this, gives coordinates of ISP offices and pitchfork emporiums. Customers revolt, UN issues a missive reminding the world that access to the internet is a human right.

2. Order power regulators to cut off their power - Pretty similar to above. Internet stops working very well, except Google continues to work in other countries, and suddenly it doesn't really make sense to do business in the USA. Google employees flee abroad where they can. Opportunistic countries take advantage of this and grant asylum.

3. Freeze their bank accounts - best idea yet, I think, except for I'm not sure how it would be implemented. Government order comes through declaring "Alphabet, Inc" to be entirely comprised of terrorists? Not sure. Either way, Google goes the way of Pablo Escobar and talks directly to bank VPs - "give us some of the money / give us a warning you get a freeze order / whatever, or we tell the world about your midget porn / location of all your private estates / your tax fraud." Alternatively, google uses its near total access to civilian populations to cast the US government as a totalitarian dictatorship issuing a coup against the American people's access to free information and fosters a revolution.
Preserving the gains we've made with telecommunications is critical for our future as a civilization, but this still bothers me. The lobbying efforts by ISPs will keep it a monopoly, and the best we can expect is for the government to sanction that monopoly?
And we spend what? $200 upgrading from an i3 to an i7 for like... 30% faster CPU performance?

Upgrading $100 hard drive to $400 SSD results in like, 500% improvements in storage speed. If you have any storage-related task... such as video editing, handling of large datasets and whatnot... the SSD will have a far bigger impact on your productivity than any CPU upgrade.
okay, finally bit the bullet and blocked it in hosts file.

> yeah... we (in the US) gave AI/meta-cognative-entities/"corporations" a type of inalienable right with the Citizens United ruling.

Except that's not true. Corporations have always had personhood. See 1 U.S.C. §1[0]:

> In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, unless the context indicates otherwise—

> ...

> the words "person" and "whoever" include corporations, companies, associations, firms, partnerships, societies, and joint stock companies, as well as individuals;

Corporations being people is what allows them to own property, use the judicial system (to sue), etc. Basically anything corporations are able to do is because they are people. The speech of a corporation is protected under the First Amendment. Donating your money to a non-profit is a form of speech, no? If I donate $25 to the EFF, I'm agreeing with what the EFF does. That's a form of expression that is protected under the First Amendment. All Citizens United v. FEC did was affirm that money can be a form of speech.

Citizens United didn't establish any president of corporate personhood anymore than Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad Company, 118 US 394 (1886)[1] did back in 1886.

Assuming smugly that people who disagree with you don't understand how capitalism works is childish and totally out of line.

You guys must not work in electronics.
Your key assumption is that Google has all this market power. They don't. The only, and truly ONLY, reason that they're so big and powerful is that everyone automatically goes to google when in need of search. Their business would disappear in a hurry the day that changes.

What's one way that could change? Google stops working for millions of people, so they start using another product.
Amazing you consider an unstable, undecided, and hectic JavaScript world (language, 3rd party libraries, many competing tools, etc.) against the sanity of a singular language that has been stable and ahead of game since it's creation.
By that plan, we'd be looking at ~21.6 years of current GHG emissions.

This will add ~777 GT of CO2 to the atmosphere. Which will put us at ~500 ppm CO2 (We just passed 400 ppm). That would be warming between 2.5C and 3C.

If you want to hit a 95% reduction in GHG emissions, you're also going to have to:

* Shut down every single fossil fuel power plant over the next 25 years.

* Build enough renewable/nuclear powerplants to replace all of our fossil fuel power sources, twice over. (Assuming we switch to electrical transportation.)

And, the elephant in the room:

* Halve all current trans-continental shipping and air travel. It is currently responsible for ~6-7% of our GHG emissions. (And if it were to grow unconstrained, would likely double in volume in the next 30 years.)

* While bringing our other emissions down to nearly zero.

We can clearly do all this, but it would require significant changes in our lifestyles - something that optimists tend to not be willing to accept.
git-annex ftw. All files are visible, and you can selectively "get" them from a remote node (including cloud storage), and then drop them from local storage when you're done. There's no file streaming, though, you have to download them upfront.
