Cheapest in terms of Design and Manufacture at Scale. As a matter of fact 28nm prices is going up due to supply constraint, and 22nm ULP is not out and wont be as cost effective yet, and i doubt it will be in the future, it will be a tool for TSMC to keep higher margin.

It's quite clear that you didn't read my original message.

I did read your original message. Whether or not you personally like systemd or whether or not SUSE likes systemd, it nevertheless is in openSUSE. I don't know enough about SUSE to know if you have any other distributions that don't have systemd.

Why is systemd in openSUSE? How was that decision made? If I were in the leadership of SUSE, I would hate being so dependent on key software that is essentially controlled by my largest competitor.

At this point systemd has become the entrenched incumbent. So "alternatives" are mostly wishful thinking. For people to switch away from systemd, they would need to be convinced that something like GNU Shepherd wasn't just equal, but was significantly better. That seems unlikely to happen anytime soon.

People aren't directly locked into Red Hat, but they sure are locked into a very key piece of software controlled by Red Hat.

This state of affairs has to hurt SUSE. When selecting a distribution, why wouldn't businesses buy from companies as far "upstream" as possible? Why buy software from SUSE if key pieces come from Red Hat? Why not just buy from Red Hat directly?
This is somewhat similar to what the Metropolitan line did in the first third of the 20th century -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metro-land -- though in that case I think they mostly sold off houses and building plots on the estates to gain an immediate capital return on the increased land value, rather than retaining the land and collecting rents.

I use Makefiles for two components of my research:

- Compilation of papers I am writing (in LaTeX). The Makefile processes the .tex and .bib files, and produces a final pdf. Fairly simple makefile

- Creation of initial conditions for galaxy merger simulations. This I obtained from a collaborator. We do idealized galaxy merger simulations and my collaborator has developed a scheme to create galaxies with multiple dynamical components (dark matter halos, stellar disks, stellar spheroids, etc.) very near equilibrium. We have makefiles that generate galaxy models, place those galaxies on initial orbits, and then numerically evolve the system.

I'm not a bicyclist; what is this strategy and why is it used? You can't aggressively impact another player's performance in bicycling as you can in Mario Kart, right? So what is the benefit?

Is it as simple as conserving effort to just match pace until you see who around you needs to be outpaced, or is there something more complex here?
Yeah. Once seen, engineers could correct for this kind of situation.

The point is there are many such unseen sitauations that current systems don't handle, and that diversifying the sensor array can help handle those.
Probably because yesterday on reddit, this article was trending: https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/6p1iwi/til_a...

("TIL A Michigan rock collector found an impressive 93 lb. Petoskey stone in Lake Michigan in 2015, only to have it promptly confiscated by authorities. The stone violated a Michigan law that states no more than 25 pounds of rocks or minerals can be taken from the Great Lakes per year.")

I'm guessing that someone reading that reddit post found the phenomenon interesting and submitted its Wikipedia page to news.ycombinator.

Your assumption is the "local businesses" own their property. I don't know many small grocery chains that own their lots. "All boats rise with the tide". High demand for residential means commercial and industrial zoned lots will also increase in value/rent/lease.

Self-hosting email is fun you guys!

I figured that it would be, but trying to set it up was the single most frustrating thing I've ever experienced running a Linux box, and I never did get anything properly working after many days of trying. The principles seemed straightforward enough and there was plenty of software available, but what I really wanted was to self-host the mail store and IMAP server but send/receive via ISPs or other services who are better at administering a full-time SMTP setup than I am, and somehow I just never could find the magic incantations in the settings files to make that go. :-(

There is a book called Political Ponerology, with a fascinating provenance, which basically claims society at large (macro scale) goes on sawtooth pattern like this. The argument is that during the good times, people stop taking the steps needed to keep these people from attaining high positions... they remain in denial and make excuses for pyscho behavior. Then people finally take action only when it's just blatantly obviously necessary again. Which, if you think about it, is also the basic story of good & evil presented in Harry Potter :)

IIRC the book was written by the scientific wing of the Polish Resistance movement during authoritarian occupations of the 20th Century. Apparently, many of the people involved in sourcing the data (and, oh yeah, who had secretly diagnosed many of the Nazi/Communist leaders as psychopaths) were killed, when the first edition of the book was discovered in progress. And that first manuscript was destroyed, but the lead author wrote it again -- not once, but two more times -- and ultimately, had to wait for the fall of Communism in order to get it out of Poland. It was finally translated and published during the Bush administration, by New York liberals.
The real story here is how the political conditions of the SFBA have prevented growth of the housing supply. The sad reality is that housing here is now a zero sum game, and any broad based increase in wages would pretty quickly be captured by landlords. The real solution to this issue is not higher wages, but targeted efforts to decrease the cost of living through building a ton of of "missing middle" housing like 4-plexes near office space in the sea of land populated by single family home zoning as well as renters protections (rent control and eviction protection) ADUs ("accessory dwelling unit": stand alone units in peoples garages or back yards) and likely some for of social housing subsidy for the worst off among us.
It's sad so many people use GUIs on top of git - you really end up not understanding what git is doing and it can lead to problems. Command line is supreme for the same reason that a majority of books are better than their movie counterparts. They are easier, though, but in the case of git that isn't a good thing.

Hi HN,

this is Jakub, founder of Estimote, Inc. (YC S13).

We just released a new beacon firmware supporting low-power routed mesh over BLE.

It's slightly different implementation that the one Bluetooth SIG has just standarized, but it will give you a good overview what is possible with Bluetooth Mesh.

If you have beacons already just upgrade the firmware and here is a nice tutorial: https://developer.estimote.com/managing-beacons/mesh-at-scal...

> If credit score and income are correlated to race in America, should they be ignored from loan applications?

Is correlation causation? Is it fair to encode a judgement based on correlation but not causation?

Or to make your position more clear, do you support racial profiling? If not, why not, and how do you justify that position, and how does that justification apply to judgements based on correlation but not causation?

(My position is that making decisions based on correlation but not causation is the general case for which racial profiling is a specific case.)

There are many potential designs for these things, but the first gen TPU is one that works, is in production, and has been described in a paper. But you have to differentiate if you mean an inference engine, or something that can also do training. For HoloLens, it's probably going to be an inference unit, which means it'll possibly look something like a TPU, perhaps with more specific hardware support optimized for convolutions (which are very important for visual processing DNNs these days), as the NVidia tensor units are.
External data are never perfectly documented or known. You usually have huge and painful experimentation phase with parsing it. Experimenting is way easier with dynamic languages. You type less. Changing your mind has a lower cost. You don't need to think about doing the right things as much.

If you'll notice nearly everything he talks about is in relation to their podcasts, not the long form articles. There was a businessweek article a few weeks back that says The Ringer makes nearly (or perhaps all) of its money on podcasts. I'm not sure it's fair to compare The Ringer or Grantland to other sports journalism websites because The Ringer is a podcast company that happens to also write some articles.

> One suggestion: if you have a separate /boot - make sure it's large enough to hold a dozen of kernels+initamfses.

This is different in GuixSD. The complete operating system is just another store item. `/boot` hardly grows because all that happens is that a new GRUB menu is installed.

The system is "checked out" from /gnu/store by the init and then booted.

The whole operating system configuration is just a single Scheme file. The configuration is unique, I think, in that GuixSD has a "system services" composition framework that allows for building up a complex graph of "system services".

A system service is not to be misunderstood as just a daemon process. It's much more flexible than that.

Here's a very good introduction to the service composition framework:

But that's the exact same situation, right?

Kite's business model is just as legal as Eich's free speech money. But people still think it's wrong, and so they try to find ways to discourage others to act similarly.

Well you can't really consider the Bay Area housing bubble and cost of living spike without taking the tech boom into account. I think it's both the fault of NIMBYism/failure to build sufficient housing in the South Bay, and the fault of large companies, VCs, and startups for doubling down on the South Bay instead of distributing new jobs more evenly throughout the rest of the country.

If you are a competitor being an achiever is not necessarily a given. You can be competitive and still not achieve your goal unless that goal was to compete.

Everybody here is focusing on real estate. (because young wealthy programmers and older poorer workers have a shared interest in cheap real estate) But I'm really interested in how HN feels about this section:

“I felt more secure at my other job. You didn’t have people looking down at you,” Nicole said. Now she works at cafeterias with names like “Epic” and “Living the Dream”, and the distance between the two classes of Facebook workers can feel immense.

“They look at us like we’re lower, like we don’t matter,” said Nicole of the Facebook employees. “We don’t live the dream. The techies are living the dream. It’s for them.”

The smaller indignities are numerous. At the end of every shift, Nicole watches large amounts of leftover food go into the compost – food that she’s not allowed to take home. Cafeteria workers only enter Facebook’s medical clinics if they’ve been selected for a mandatory drug test. Facebook recently held a “Bring your kids to work” day, but cafeteria workers’ children were not allowed.

A spokeswoman for Facebook said that none of the company’s contingent or contract workers have access to facilities such as clinics, gyms, or bring your kid to work days, but that other policies were a matter between the contractor and the workers.

The employer might no longer exist (IMO, the probability that a company that does these kinds of experiments goes bankrupt is far from negligible), deny responsibility ("you should have let us take it out when you left the company"), or not pay for all costs (say, you moved state; will they pay travel costs to their appointed expert? Pay for time lost?)

This is part of why I think Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing Transformed is much better than any of the Mario Kart games. Transformed's blue shell equivalent is the Swarm, which causes a large number of bees (more or less the same as MK's banana peels) to spawn directly in front of the player currently in first place.

A skilled player can avoid all the bees in the swarm, either through the use of items or by steering around, often at the cost of breaking a drift chain (players should be drifting at almost all times in Transformed).

Since the bees spawn in front of first place, they have the least time to react and thus they are most likely to get hit. Every player needs to drive through the bees, but as players collide with the bees there will be less left for those near last place. The swarm brings all players closer together, instead of just hindering the 1st/2nd place driver.
This is a failed state because the system has detected objects that are not present.

We can't know how the system will react in a failed state because engineers will not have prepared for such an eventuality (ignoring negligence).

I have talked to many people about private cars (out measuring NO2 pollution in cities) and it seems that this is the main argument why they won't give up their car. Kids is another huge argument. Handling kid's gear with rentals or public transport sucks a lot.

My current thinking goes into the direction of small private electrical golf carts for cities since those fulfill the most important requirements given to me by those who say they'd never want to give up their car. One could even make them foldable and stack them upright when parked. Slow speeds mean that not much of a safety buffer is needed in the material.

Being able to make longer trips in the same vehicle is surprisingly low on the list. It is given mainly by people with kids who want to load the vehicle in front of their house and not have to pay for several vehicles (thus having a golf cart and a normal car does not sound appealing).

Even if that does happen I think we would see corresponding decrease in head-on, T-bone and other more devastating collisions.

Its like non-corrupt red light cameras, they do reduce red light running and do increase the number of accidents. They reduce fatal accidents but increase nearly harmless rear-end collisions. So property damage and loss of life are reduce, but speeders and tailergaters get the majority in my town because there are no pedestrians and no one thinks they will be the ones to cause an accident.
> code quality is not the same thing as code style.

I did misparaphrase you. My apologies for that. Fixed.

But as for the other argument, I think the comic's examples and your case represent feedback loops in which two factors are both cause and consequence of each other.

I believe you that you started not caring about code style after you noticed your code tends not to last. Similarly, life was short already before bacon existed. Would you agree that your code is more likely to dissapper now that you don't care about style?
now I ain't sayin she's a gold digger...
It's simple. When you have an oversupply of job seekers competing for a limited slot of quality jobs, the employers have the upper hand in terms of bargaining, driving down wages and working conditions until they hit the minimum that people are willing to put up with.

The solution isn't regulation because that only addresses a symptom without addressing the root cause. The only solution is to remove the employee's dependence on their employer (eg. universal basic income).
