This just sounds grandiose but really, renting a 747-400F is not such a big deal. This http://www.opshots.net/2015/04/aircraft-operating-series-air... article gives a figure of 24-27000 USD an hour. You need it how long? Ten hours? Twelve?

Using a random card Amazon gives us a box size of 13.4 x 9.5 x 3.1 about 400 cubic inches. Say http://www.cargolux.com/our-expertise/cargo-equipment/aircra... we have 21 347 ft^3 that is some 36 887 616 cubic inches which means some 92 000 such boxes give or take.

There are inefficiencies etc so let's say it's 30 000 cards. Say at 300 USD each. That's a cool ten million bucks. The plane likely costs less than half a mil. It's not a biggie.

But do they really?
https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/zmemza/cryptocurr... says "Enigma started with an installation of about 700 GPUs and now consists of several larger buildings," Schindler told me in an email. "Obviously at this size the operation draws attention from the hardware manufacturers directly and we have agreements with them." Compared to that I have some doubts they need to fly thirty thousand cards in. Maybe they rented a pallet in a 747F...
I work in this sector - best and simplest use-case is to run your own OSM basemap and satellite tiles and fetch them on the client using Leaflet, embedding them in your application and rendering the data on top of it.

You'd only probably want to support one or two projections out of the box (EPSG 4326 and 3857, the respective geographic and projected coordinate systems that pretty much are the de-facto standard in GIS). The end-user would have to use PostGIS spatial query to project the data if they wanted to see it on map.

Then you would retrieve the extent (bounding box) of the data from the query, send that to your server, fetch the tiles, and have the Leaflet client render basemap under the data. You could look into https://github.com/lukasmartinelli/osm-liberty for some inspiration of self-hosted OSM.
In my experience, here are the things to be actively controlling: don't hunch over (keep your back relatively straight), keep your arms bent at 90 degrees and swing them moderately (not too little, not too much), don't lock out knees, don't heel strike (strike with the blade or ball of your foot, whichever you prefer). If you're swaying side to side, you may need to place your feet closer to the centerline of your body. Everything else should come naturally.
Plus all the time stuff costs when you're not even using it. You also need to organise those books, move house with them, find space for them, maybe sell or give away some you don't want. They might get stolen, do you need insurance for them? That shelf takes more time to dust...
Much of the time, it's because their parents or grandparents live there. Having family connections makes it hard to move away from a place, unless you like risk.

Which, of course is how those families got there in the first place...

I think you're both right - they way I read their comment was more like "if you expect a phishing attack from certain sources, this implies you're not on the defensive against attacks which aren't from those sources".

These recent articles about Shannon should be the most helpful relating to the very uncommon natural-born researcher.

Effectively implementing Shannon's guidelines as documented here can be really helpful, but still can not be expected to bring the majority of aspiring researchers within reach of such unlimited upside potential, even from adjoining labs having the same resources where valuable breakthroughs are being had by all.

Anyway, I'll put in my 2 cents about what I interpret for Shannon's missing text in the following paragraph:

>Then there’s the idea of dissatisfaction. By this I don’t mean a pessimistic dissatisfaction of the world - we don’t like the way things are - I mean a constructive dissatisfaction. The idea could be expressed in the words, °∞ (missing?). This is OK, but I think things could be done better. I think there is a neater way to do this. I think things could be improved a little. In other words, there is continually a slight irritation when things don’t look quite right; and I think that dissatisfaction in present days is a key driving force in good scientists.

I say the idea could be expressed in the words "continuous improvement"
Ha! No no, if I were looking for upbeat answers it'd be a bunch of responses saying "Nah, I'm awesome. Every day I know it."

When I saw a couple pictures that showed the interior of one of these buildings with coffin cubicles, I was appalled with the possibilities of fire hazard deadly scenarios.

I'd imagine the purpose here would fall under general deterrence. By bringing down a harsh sentence here, you'd hope that future parents would take extra care to prevent such things from happening in the future. There is doubt just how effective general deterrence is in reducing criminal behaviour (see Death Penalty), but I'll admit it does call into question the utility of destroying a man's life that in all likelihood has already been irreparably altered. One thing is for certain, this guy was criminally negligent to highest degree (causing death), and it's unlikely a functioning criminal justice system is going to let someone walk away from that.

Marie Kondo's The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up has been fairly popular in my circles, where throwing out lots of things you never use seems to give you more room to hang out with friends and family. (And if you're short on time, the manga adaptation The Life-Changing Manga of Tidying Up was just recently released in North America in English.)
The article mentions hunting by running as an evolutionary adaptation suggesting running distances, not necessarily sprinting.

I have to imagine running like hell to escape predators as a major part of our evolutionary past. It would seem consistent with the effectiveness of high intensity interval training as well as how satisfying the feeling of exhaustion after running as fast as you can for a while.
I'm consistently surprised at how tepid AMD's embrace of mining has been. If I was them and noticed that my product was literally sold out everywhere because of mining, I would embrace it, open a mining division, and immediately get to work trying to create specialized hardware optimized for mining.

The fact that they seem to be pretending that this use case does not exist and stubbornly declare themselves to be exclusively a gaming company is baffling to me.
I have decided that's part of a natural cycle. When you're young, you don't have money and you don't have stuff. You have yet to acquire transportation, furniture, dishes, etc because you can't afford it. So you keep things & accumulate.

Eventually, you have everything you need and you have to break out of that "keep everything" mentality because it's no longer appropriate.

The latter seems more cruel. I mean, how is the child supposed to get back?
How do you tell the difference between someone who forgot their child in a car from someone who "forgot" their child in the car? Should we really be sending the message "you can always get away with killing your kid as long as you use this method. It's a get out of jail free card."

From my experience growing up parental child abuse is fairly common but very underreported so the case of malice can't exactly be discounted.

It's a difficult issue... Even if malice isn't intended there is certainly negligence.

I fail to see the racism in your comment.
On average it would take around 500 guesses. One would have expected that with your "method" you could have reduced this by an order of magnitude (i.e. not 800) at least. Otherwise you're really just wasting time with additional steps for each trial.
We did not give up "lex talionis". In fact, shooting a police officer is currently punished more harshly than regular people, at least in Texas. It's called "capital murder" in texas
I think you're confusing punishment with deterrence. Punishment has a vengeful nature, and comes from a more primitive time when victims got their retribution by seeing offenders suffer. Of course it's related to deterrence, but the way you talk about it deterrence is the purpose of punishment, which I don't think is correct. Punishment (and specifically, fulfilling or abating the desire for revenge of the wronged) is an end in itself.

>swing them moderately (not too little, not too much)

Just had to point out this delicious tautology.

Anyway, I don't think you can sum up correct running form in words, or if you can then it's not useful. My advice would be: keep your tempo (steps/minute) around 170-180, do ankle mobility work and hip/glute strengthening. A high tempo lessens time in air each stride and thus velocity when hitting the ground, lowering impact on joints. Ankle/hip/glute work will stave off most muscular imbalances, which are the root cause of many form problems.

I was the third engineer at VoltDB and spent six years making that bet. It's not a good bet.

Maybe there are other factors, but if VoltDB could page out cold data to disk I think it would be at least 2x if not more successful. No one agreed with me so it never happened.

I saw so many use cases go out the door because hey you know what? RAM is expensive and it's cheaper to page out cold data. The scale where that cost starts to matter is not that big.
That's very interesting. The estimate of 100ns came from here: https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/~rcs/research/interactive_l.... and is probably not very precise (maybe because it is only capturing rough order of magnitude). I have now updated the post. Thanks for the feedback! Specific constant aside, the point about latency not improving much still holds.
TL;DR, the gist of the "wrong" is that we've been trained by "trainers" (over-padded athletic shoes) to run in a straight-legged, heel-lands-first manner.

Any reputable running clinic will teach you to make contact with the ground at the middle of your foot with a slightly bent knee. That's just well understood, proper technique, regardless of footwear.

The real problem is people hitting the pavement without learning the basics of good technique because they think we're somehow "evolved" to just "do it right", which may be technically true but it's meaningless in practice.

Edit: cleaned up the tone a bit.

Actually - I disagree with this. You can no longer "glance" at the url bar to determine if you are on the right domain due to Unicode chars if you clicked a link.

The only safe way is to type the url yourself into the browser.

If it is a long link - then at least typing the base domain, and pasting the "rest" is probably safe?
There is research out there that says your experiencing self and your narrating will have different interpretations of the same experience. While you're actually doing something (say cleaning or cooking) you might be uncomfortable and not like it much, but later on, you may reflect kindly because you feel like you were being responsible, productive, and maybe healthy.

We've all had terrible experiences that made us miserable while we were doing it, but were made less miserable because we got to bitch about it later on. For example, I once went camping with my friends and everything went wrong. We forgot to bring tools to help us cook food. It was raining and one of our tents didn't have a rainfly, so we all had to cram into the other relatively small tent. I ended up sleeping on a pile of jagged rocks, head-to-foot with one of my friends, and at the feet of my other four friends, with my head in a puddle. On top of that, other another campsite close to us was setting off fireworks for hours (it was the 4th of July), which kept waking us up at irregular intervals throughout the night. That night sucked really hard, but it's one of my favorite stories to tell, so I don't really reflect on it negatively.

Well yes, I think RAM has been the new disk for awhile now, and not because (anecdote about database disk structures) or (any recent change to cost of RAM).

If you use Linux, the fastest way to test how much faster your application is off disk is to simply make a filesystem in RAM, and run the whole thing from there. Because library-chasing to build a chroot is a hassle, I would recommend simply putting a container on a RAM-backed block device, then installing your application on the container.

I have personally designed, built and managed large clusters of diskless machines and find that the mix of RAM-only and PXE[1] boot is an excellent one for maintaining state (and security) across well managed infrastructure. Disks be damned. For permanent storage, consider sharing a DRBD[2] cluster from dedicated nodes.

If their hardware is sold out because of mining, all they have to do to serve the mining segment is make more of that hardware. There is no urgent need to undercut themselves.

Brief research suggests that the entirety of Etherium mining is roughly equivalent to 1 quarter of AMDs GPU sales. It seems gaming is the much bigger chunk of demand (Nvidia sells 3x what AMD sells, so annual gaming sales are roughly 10x the total Etherium spend).
If all else fails, bend the knees and go down few cm. Then try to kick you butt with the heel going up. This will naturally lean you forward and your striking leg won't heel in first on the next strike.

Also, try to keep your head in the same virtual horizontal line. Head/torso going up and down can cost up to 40% more energy.

For extra points, your torso shouldn't be swaying, arms moving should be enough.
