Dan Cowhig, prosecuting, also told the court that Mr Hutchins had made a confession during a police interview.

"He admitted he was the author of the code of Kronos malware and indicated he sold it," said Mr Cowhig.

The lawyer claimed there was evidence of chat logs between Mr Hutchins and an unnamed co-defendant - who has yet to be arrested - where the security researcher complained of not receiving a fair share of the money.

Unix programming model vs. serverless programming model
Urban development really is it's own thing dominated by transportation systems, wealth, waste management etc. The complex math is vital and independent from other human constructs. Architecture was often influenced by the tax code, climate, material property's etc so again the details really are important and separate from everything else.

Now, sure the boundarys around a field gets fuzzy and sculpture and architecture are both influenced by the human visual system so there is overlap. But, that's not a shared theme that's D.C. and Baltimore being next to each other and sharing a few suburbs at one end, but not all suburbs.
> "Bystanders who come to the aid of the victim of an attack can have an important role in minimising further injury," [..]

> They urged bystanders to remove victims from exposure as soon as possible and apply "copious" amounts of water on the affected area, "to minimize the long-term effects of scarring and need for surgical reconstruction."

The "'copious' amounts of water on the affected area" part can't be stressed enough and also that the victim is likely too shocked to do this themselves. Also, try to not get any acid in your mouth and avoid to swallow it under any circumstances.

I attended a talk by Katie Piper[1] last year
and someone asked her what her first reaction was after the attack happened. She said that she looked down her body and saw her clothes dissolving and her first worry was that people could see her naked.
She also said the the attack took place in a busy street [2] but it took a long time until anyone helped her.

[2] I think she said High Street in her talk but Wikipedia disagrees.

Absolutely. It happens. But to harken back to the original post, there are definite advantages to "technology with X experts available in the market" than "technology with Y experts available in the market". Where X > Y.

And those advantages don't disappear even if Y is easy to learn.

Agreed, something they should have a plan for but not too worrying to see it with a few caveats at this stage.

I actually wrote a comment in response to loeg elsewhere in the thread and lost it by refreshing (and then lost interest, hah!) on the subject of conversion. I think there are some interesting problems around introducing a new FS and having to build "migrations" into it from the start. Migration feels like an expensive (in time/effort) word and I'd be concerned about issues coming up when you need to rewrite chunks of your NOVA FS because the per-CPU region has to become larger and everything else needs to shift along. It wouldn't need to be a full rewrite since only some data would need to be moved but it still seems clunky.

As mentioned in another comment, it seems like the solution being put forward is to oversubscribed the per-CPU data region for 256 CPUs but I wonder how long until that turns out to be a bad assumption. Who knows, maybe it doesn't matter. Maybe it's just out of scope for NOVA. One FS doesn't need to rule the world after all!
Not even thirty, but every day I understand the world less and less.

What scares me is that over 1/3 of incidents were marked as "Investigation complete; no suspect identified".

Because it doesn’t work. The intention if the ccTLD registry is clear: they only want local businesses and persons to use the domain names in their ccTLD. But as it stands, as a foreign company it is only slightly more expensive to register a domain in such a ccTLD than some other TLD – it does not stop anyone except poorer foreign people from registering, and placing limits on poor people just for being poor never works out well.

You can't change your CPU without losing the data in RAM (unless you are on zOS), and I think that's a precedent which people are ignoring.

Imagine a hardware architecture which considers NV-RAM as a very large and safe cache, and software which understands that.

This would be great for things like a (huge) RDMS which traditionally requires tables and especially indexes to be in RAM. Suddenly you can get adequate performance on multi-terrabyte indexes, and providing the software understands the storage hierarchy there is no explicit rebuild needed - the data is also stored on spinning rust and on a WAL maybe on a SSD, and will be reloaded into NV-RAM on read.

- O(1) - standard array (regardless of N)

- O(log_b(N)) - HAMT (b is 32 in clojure)

Since b is big, log_b(N) is quite small even for big numbers, e.g. log_32(2^20) = 4

One of the great things about using different languages on my off time is that the number of things that fit my brain has grown over time. It doesn't actually take that long for an experienced polyglot programmer to pick up a new language.

I think use what fits your brain is the kind of advice that sounds good but does most people a disservice. At work use what allows you to ship high quality code, on time, within the business constraints that you have. But you'll have much better options in your career if you take at least some time to expand your brain so more things fit in it.
This is the first time I've heard this kind of argument here on HN. It sounds an awfully lot like victim blaming and I'm unsure why you think it acceptable that certain people not be allowed into certain parts of a city.

> I meant people don't talk about it [saying someone else looks good in a bathing suit] out of respect for their coworkers, not because they are afraid to get fired.

There is nothing disrespectuful about saying saying someone looks good in a bathing suit. It's normal social interaction. In fact the supression of various forms of normal social interraction, either by some explicit rule or law, or by some sort of chilling effect is what's causing all these crazy problems.
They 100% don't have disposal bins at Sydney T3, nor do I remember them at Melbourne or Brisbane. I've spent a lot of time in that airport, sometimes without even flying and I've never seen anything other than just regular bins and the "oops I forgot this bottle of water" before security.
I am not talking about defaulting to base emotions but about figuring out what makes up the complex emotion. It's not that something like jealousy is just fear that is masking as something else. It can be something like fear, insecurity, feeling unimportant or ignored, surprise, and sense of loss, combined in some proportion. In my experience, you first have to identify the complex neuanced emotion, then you have to break it down to its components, and then you address those. Complex emotions are very hard to address directly, but easy to throw misdirected and misguided solutions at.

"The origin of the CPU-count dependence is that NOVA divides PMEM into per-CPU allocation regions. We use the current CPU ID as a hint about which region to use and avoid contention on the locks that protect it.
So moving from a smaller number of CPUs to a larger number of CPUs just means more contention for the locks. Moving from a larger number to a smaller number is no problem at all. So, our current plan is to set the CPU count very high (like 256) when the file system is created." - comment under the post by one of the designers of the fs

There is an assumption behind the blogpost's question, IMO: that only by being setup exactly as Fedex and UPS can the couriers be adequately protected.

Maybe that is the actually the case (I'm not an expert in the field), but the underlying assumption of that being a hard requirement is present. Now, if Airmule thinks that they don't need to do exactly that but have another means by which the couriers could be protected, they can't reasonably answer "yes" (because they aren't organized that way) nor "no" (because that's a misleading answer from their point of view).
Maybe it's one of those rigs with a huge-sensor camera that records the entire city. RadioLab did a story about this technology. So, for example, if a gas station is robbed, they can go to the video and play it backwards from the time of the robbery and follow the criminals back to their homes.

> What airport security had to say about a regular person impersonating security agents?

I initially read madeofpalk's comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14940680) as it seems that you might have, so that it seemed to say that the supposed security agent was not actually a security agent; but a second reading suggests that the meaning is instead that, in addition to being a security agent, the person in question was a Regular Person, and had a sense of humour.

Repeated readings still do not reveal whether an Australian security agent referring to something as his "bread and bitter" is a typo or intentional. :-)

Management hiring management rarely tell you what you should be doing from the view of non-management workers. Also, you're assuming that the management that hired this director knows everything, but I don't think they do, so I don't see why it would be a problem to ask more about it in a public space where other directors and those who work with directors are located.

"High street" can be a general term for the road with lots of shops on at the centre of a community, it's doesn't have to be called "High Street". Golders Green Road qualifies.

I've come to pretty much the same conclusion as the OP. I used to love learning and trying new languages and I agree that learning things like C and Lisp and Haskell definitely made me a better python programmer. However over the past few years I've decided that python, while far from perfect, is the only language I've found that is good enough for everything I want to do. And more importantly I've realised that learning new languages is not the best use of my limited time. I'm much better off studying a new domain or practical application which I can apply python to than I am learning a new language do to the same thing I'm already doing in python.
