HTML is repetitive text, and that is what conventional compression algorithms (like the ones you mentioned) are good at. How they work is pretty interesting, so I'd encourage you to go look it up.

The fact that you need to compress HTML makes me think there is a bigger problem, though (People shouldn't make complicated web pages).
I'm not sure what you mean by "adding new Postgres instances." Postgres is not a distributed database, at least not on it's own. There are ways to scale using e.g. hot standbys (streaming replicas for read-only queries) and multiple projects that implement distributed databases on top of Postgres (Citus, Postgres-XL, ...). But then it depends mostly on that project, not on Postgres.

Sure, Partitioning does negatively affect some queries. But the thing is - it's a significant improvement compared to the previous partitioning implementation, which had almost no insight into the partitioning rules. And so optimizer could not really do advanced tricks (e.g. partition-wise joins) etc.
> U.S. District Judge Edward Chen in San Francisco granted a preliminary injunction request brought by hiQ Labs, and ordered LinkedIn to remove within 24 hours any technology preventing hiQ from accessing public profiles.

That is actually dangerous. Why some startup or some judge can tell me to whom I can serve content and to whom I cannot?
Try RhodeCode, you will get both mercurial and git. Since I prefer Mercurial over git I don't have any other option than to run my own instance.
> I now use a workout supplement without caffeine. There are very few of these, I’ve found. Pretty much every supplement that gives you some kind of bump has caffeine in it. I have found that my energy level is improved by ensuring that I consume lots of electrolytes.

Interesting. I would be more wary of using (artificial) workout supplements than indulging in (moderate quantities of) caffeine, sugar or alcohol. With latter at least we know the side effects. But then, we each choose our own poison I guess...
You don't do it because you need to, you do it because you can.
Ag-gag laws are abhorrent. Most Americans agree. They're a relatively recent problem (Most have been passed or on the ballot since 2012, so last five years) caused by corrupt politicians that Americans are working to solve.

Pointing at them is classic whataboutism. We have problems in the US. We mostly confront them headon rather than pretending they don't exist. Suppression of speech is pretending they don't exist.

Another example: Americans are constantly blasted by Europeans for racism. Racism is a very real problem in America - That's why groups like Black Lives Matter exist. We deal with these problems with speech, like the aforementioned group. As such, some fairly basic indicators, like the public opinion on miscegenation have been trending in a good direction - Less than 20% of America disapproves of it[1]. The data is not quite quantified in the same way, but there's an argument that in Germany, that number is more than 40%[2]. Across the EU, 35% of people would be upset if their child were dating a black person. The numbers are not directly comparable - The US numbers are about interracial marriage as a whole, not personalizing it about "your child", and I've seen firsthand that there's a difference. But those aren't numbers that swing that far. It might be equally bad, it might be a little worse in the US. It's not the sea change that it's so often presented as - Racism is a global problem, not a US one.

Parser combinators are awesome! I've played with them just a bit. They seem to match my intuition of how a parser's implementation ought to resemble an EBNF grammar.

Just for fun, using the Bennu library[0] I wrote a JSON parser[1]. (Not intended for production use of course; well-optimized JSON parsers exist and browsers kinda ship with them now. If you're looking for a Bennu example or are thinking of experimenting with extending JSON in wacky ways for fun, then it's neat to mess with.) With that specific library, I seemed to create some messy parts when shuffling values through the library's stream abstraction, but I got the hang of it and the parts I thought were messy at least were straight-forward and didn't have issues like hidden edge cases. Something cool is that parsers made with the library and its stream abstraction automatically work incrementally too.

Rust will never be as convenient as GC languages for web, GUI and distributed programming.

Also just because they have a GC doesn't mean all allocations have to go through the heap.

"Had a similar experience with a manual earth t-auger. Really quite fast, easy, a pleasure to use, when I wasn't hitting rocks."

Having acquired quite a bit of experience drilling post holes over the last 1/2 year, I respectfully but vehemently disagree. The context: I bought some land last year as an experiment in how much ecosystem services a city dweller can provide himself, for his own family, when having that land next to the primary residence isn't possible. So it's both about being low-tech (for several reasons - price, accessibility, operator skill level required, self-reliance, ...) but also about being efficient enough to let 1 or 2 people work enough land to do something 'useful' on; in my case about 1 ha (2 acres) but I think the same would hold for half as well as 5 times that. I started with a cheap t-auger, which I broke literally on first use (I hadn't even gotten 10cm (~3") into the ground), then a good auger with which I can put up fence poles at a rate of say 15 a day. (it takes between 9 and 25 minutes with a median of 18 minutes to drill a 50 cm (1 1/2') hole, ram the pole down another 20 cm using a ramming block, and side fill the excess space; this is in medium heavy clay soil with quite a lot of stones and subsurface roots, so it is pretty much worst case scenario).

Then I got a gas-powered drill with which I can place posts at a rate > 1/10mins, so almost double the size of doing it with a manual auger; furthermore, it's possible to keep this pace for much longer than with a manual auger because it's much less tiring. So I think you can put in > 40 posts per day with a gas powered machine (but I haven't measured or done this yet).

I've had similar experiences using hand drills, screwdrivers and various kinds of saws, but I haven't measured as much for those.

Anyway my point is - of course you can do everything by hand if you spend enough time. People used to dig canals by hand all the time. But for the modern person aspiring to self-sufficiency and not having access to cheap mass labor that was available in the heyday of manually powered tools, making the best possible use of power tools (given constraints of availability of electricity etc. of course) is very important. In other words, my initial goals of using hand tools didn't quite survive impact with reality, and the first big lesson I've learned from the ordeal is that the romantic notion of using 18th-century-and-earlier technology isn't really feasible for practical purposes unless you go all-out in living like it was back then. (so I mean, people survived back then, so I don't see why it wouldn't be possible to do it again if you go all out; but if want to keep one foot in the modern world and see self-sufficiency as a part-time or fallback thing, like the vast majority of people into this sort of thing do, you have to mix and match to increase your efficiency).
Only three numbers matter: zero, one, and more-than-one
Umm... I have visited a number of Daesh and ISIS support sites. I have commented on their recruitment videos. I've also communicated with both the PKK and YPG.

I'm not a Muslim, I'm a secular Buddhist. I just wanted to understand what they were fighting about.

Additionally, no! The site in question's primary purpose is not illegal. That a subset of users have made threats in no way implicates the whole. It's not a 'make threats about Trump' site.

Also, I'm not actually sure you know what treason is. Treason is actually pretty clearly defined. This isn't it. Even if someone assassinated the president, that's not treason.

So, yes, it is unethical - and almost certainly a violation of the 4th. I'm not okay with ceding the protections of the constitution to assuage your fear. Terrorists scare me exactly none, nor do these people threatening the president scare me.

If they were gonna assassinate the president, they'd not announce it online. If they do, they are too stupid to act on the threat. By all means, prosecute them. However, narrow the warrant to just the accounts that made threats.

Fear doesn't motivate me to give up my rights. It also doesn't motivate me to insist you give up your rights.

I'm very much the same. And I do envy people who gets into some kind of hyper productive mode after a coffee, or like my partner who can't sleep at night if she gets a cup after 2pm.

I can have a large cup of coffee at 10pm, become tired and be sleeping at 11pm. Also, during extended vacations (>2 weeks) I typically go without coffee and, what I can tell, don't feel the difference.

I wonder why this is case...?
I'm not saying it is negative. Probably I should not color red the background in the table.

May was the peak of controversy, arguments and discussions about future of scaling bitcoin. core vs unlimited node count, miner support, vendor/merchant support - nobody knew how would things turn out.

throughout that time one of main arguments was that blocks were full and mempool (unconfirmed transactions) was gigantic.

the moment camps settled on agreeing to disagree - mempool was gone.

feel free to continue pretending this all was simply a coincidence.

I've actually met ex-nazis in Germany and I don't believe the causality you're proposing holds up.

Yes, neo-nazis think the "jews" are running the country and keeping them down, but this is no different from how the antifa think the "fascists" are doing the same.

The recent rise of nationalism in Germany actually has more to do with both major parties having become indistinguishable in many cases and "moderates" flocking to the extremes to "punish" the government.

It's a lot like trolls on 4chan spreading racist memes "for the lulz" until they end up having become actual white supremacists participating in Nazi rallies instead of merely shitposting on the Internet.

Right-leaning "moderates" vote for the right-wing extremists (NPD if you're really angry or AfD if you are more of a realist) out of spite and then fall for the rhetoric as they continue exposing themselves to their messages.

The only effective treatment against this disease seems to be constant exposure to other people with other ideas coming from other walks of life.

Yes, there's an East/West divide in neo-Nazi density in Germany, but it's also very much a rural/metropolitan divide. If all the people around you look, talk and think like you, everything different becomes a threat to your way of life.
I get that and generally agree. I am more challenging the idea of feeling bad / guilty about sexual attraction, which I interpreted as being implied by some of the other comments in this thread.
It might not be fair but reading a .gov address listed as a reviewer does not exactly inspire trust. :'(
In zen there is the question, who is in control of these feelings? Where is the locus of control, and what kind of a thing is it?

Where is the boundary between things inside your mind and things outside of your mind? Where does control get inserted into the process of things arising and falling away?

One way of thinking about this produces a realisation that nobody is in control, but nobody has been denied or robbed of control either. Instead, the idea of control appears to be a kind of misapplied concept.

I think this is a realistic interpretation of the evidence which does not lead to a depressive fugue, but only when it's absorbed beyond a textual description (a bit like how reading a program is different to running one, in HN-friendly terms).

I was responding, in the general sense, to the claim that for medical research I guess it's not acceptable to use analogues because "it should be similar!" isn't a medically sound reason to use an analogue. This statement, evidently, doesn't map well to the field of pharmacology.

The benzodiazepines comprise at least twenty different chemicals in five classes.[1] Structural analogues[2] are as common as horse shit in medicine and medical research. Structural analogues are also present in the SSRI class of drugs[3].

Psilocybin and dimethyltryptamine are structural analogues. It's unsurprising that their effects are broadly similar when ingested orally.

With regards to your comment "... don't seem to affect the whole of the brain the way psychedelics do which we didn't really know about until 2016"... Surely that was evident to anyone who'd tried amphetamine at least once and mushrooms or LSD or DMT at least once. Amphetamine can be compared to caffeine, and even at high doses it doesn't really alter your way of perceiving the world. Where as the psychedelics, at sufficiently large doses, can be likened to being fucked open to God by Jesus, while riding a fluorescent unicorn and as you watch the universe unfold.

Because sometimes you're stuck to that small intersection where only a particular OS is supported by a particular technology. Case in point: CUDA. There's no support for CUDA for OSs other than Windows and Linux. And there's no support for ZFS in whatever form on Windows. If you want to do GPU computing using programs written in CUDA and keep the data on ZFS then you're essentially stuck to Linux + zfsonlinux and you have to deal with it.

I can't see how this is a solution. The problem isn't whether corruption is possible, the problem is trust. It's a social problem, not a technical problem. You can have the most corruption-free system in the world, but normal people won't understand how it works, nor will they care to verify the system. They get their trust through their social circle, e.g. "my mother and my friends say X is reliable while Y is untrustworthy". The more people that they trust they hear it from, repeatedly, the more they view X as reliable. The blockchain has no such reputation except possibly among certain techies, which is a tiny portion of the population.

The blockchain may allow a group of experts to verify truth, but this only impacts the population at large if somehow the opinions of these experts propagate to the larger population. That step is a marketing and communication problem.

For example Nutricia, the company behind the Dutch Nutrilon milk powder that Chinese are buying en masse, opened factories in China and sold Nutrilon directly in China. They've been doing this for several years now, yet demand for Nutrilon produced in the Netherlands remains high. Why? Because people don't trust that the Nutrilon produced in China is not a scam. Only after mass marketing campaigns, e.g. hiring celebrities as spokespeople, are people beginning to trust it.
Personally, I think the best thing is having (finally!) serious cross-platform encrypted drive support in software. (Yes hw encryption has its benefits, but like with software raid - the flexibility of software is great). Potentially this could also be easier to use for external disks than unlock, detect volumes, mount (or unlock zfs mount...).

In theory, having compression and encryption handled by one codebase might open the door to a safe/clearly delineated tradeoffs of enabling both.
I think you are arguing against biology.
Alcohol is alcohol. The differences you are noticing are probably due to the amount of water you're consuming with your alcohol (two pints of 5% beer contains a lot more water than one pint of 10% beer), how fast you're drinking (some liquors you shot, some you sip for example, sweeter drinks get drunk faster than bitter drinks), and possibly also related to the amount of sugar you consume (as is common in sweeter mixed drinks).
Yeah, I always say the best reason to quit caffeine is because it feels so good when you get back onto caffeine. :)

Annnnnd this is why I don't do tobacco or "real" drugs.
Well you effectively have 3 common ways of consuming them: fresh, dried and truffles. In my opinion dried is very easy to consume, they don't have most of their taste (nor mass); truffles come second because they don't taste too bad (kinda like nuts but tartier) and finally the worst to consume because of volume and taste is regular fresh caps and stalks but even then they don't taste that bad.

Eating them in something like a ham sandwich makes it OK in my opinion.

I've only ever ordered them from legal producers so I don't know how much extra work they put into making them not taste bad versus illegal growers.
> There are two advantages I see in being off caffeine. First you are not dependent on a drug. Second, if you do need the drug for a rare occasion (maybe driving late into the night etc.) it is there for you. Being off caffeine then drinking a cup of coffee gives you a huge jolt.

This is my exact experience with the various kinds of ADHD stimulant meds.
> Germany is not really that much better than Turkey in terms of freedom of speech or freedom of artistic expression

That kind of rhetoric trivializes how repressive the Erdoğan regime really is. With all its faults, Germany hasn't locked up thousands of innocent people on shady claims of conspiracy or terrorism, or shut down independent TV stations or newspapers. Germany also hasn't abolished its strict division of power and given the president or chancellor absolute power.
Eh, mescaline, weed and (sort of) Psilocybin) is fairly easy. I guess the difference is it takes a lot longer to grow these things rather over fermenting alcohol.

> I'm not sure how this comment is relevant to the point I'm making: that privilege and advantage is a subjective measure that depends on each person's individual values.

> one person can see that one group is behind compared to another while a different person sees the opposite

Okay, I see.

I thought, when you started talking about men in prison, that you were tacitly supporting leereeves' statement that young men are disadvantaged compared to young women.

In fact, you just wanted to say that people's perceptions of "advantage" are subjective; therefore, one person could easily view men as advantaged in today's society, while another views women as advantaged.

To that, I would say, duh =). We're here debating how men and women experience the world in order to both present our own knowledge, and hear about others'. This helps us shape our future values by including more data than we have directly observed ourselves.

On behalf of drinkers, I apologize for the that a lot of drinkers act this way.

Personally I really don't care what anybody else consumes and I certainly don't look down on people for not drinking. People have lots of good reasons to abstain from drinking, and zero of those reasons are my business (unless they want to share)
you microdose mushrooms?? Interesting. Just for recreation when you want to relax or do you ever do it during the day?

Yes, very much. It's called the chilling effect.
I know how these work and it's indeed interesting for example PAQ achieves great compression by training multiple neural networks but it's still generic so I thought maybe somebody already has pretrained something similar at large amounts of HTML so it gives really great compression even better than PAQ which has to start from scratch every time...
Ever grown mushrooms? I wouldn't call it easy. It takes a few months and a lot of preparation, plus you need a pressure cooker and some other equipment.
I'm in rural Germany. For 20-somethings it's perfectly normal to have designated drivers who don't drink, no questions asked. If you're a woman, most people will suspect you're pregnant but it's too early to be socially acceptable to ask you about it.

In theory yes. But in practice it's not quite so straightforward. If you're working to tight deadlines then having to reconfigure your pipeline because of an outage is both scary and a huge pain in the arse.

The reason people opt for cloud solutions is to decrease complexity, not increase it. So if I'm having to run multiple git origins then I would be better off self hosting and just moving those complexities in house.
