and why do we need to do redistribution of any sort? I think that's what Libertarians are opposed to.
While we're here, can someone explain how a "dream within a dream" works in Inception ? Presumably someone has to "fall asleep" inside their (or someone else's) dream and go into a dream state again on another level so to speak. The only way I can see the brain implementing that is to dream of its own state so completely that it can run itself as a virtual machine, and fall asleep inside that VM. I haven't read the code, but I doubt the C implementation includes a VM that can run inside itself, Smalltalk-style.

>> "There is no scientific consensus that toy preferences are linked to prenatal testosterone or career choice"

> This is weasel wording for "there are no difference".

Demanding research back up your claims is weasel wording? Okay..

> do you think there are any differences between men and women in what sort of activities and/or behaviour they prefer to do, take part in or be around?

Yup.

> If so, would it not be reasonable to assume that this would result in different preferences in job choice?

Yes, but not to the extent the differences affect gender capability overall in roles like tech or leadership, which is what Damore was talking about. That's far from the scientific consensus.

> does it then not follow that men and women would have different preferences?

Biology can play a role in forming different choices of two men. It does not follow that all men would be more suited, on average, than women for roles in tech or leadership.

> I'm not going to be lured into saying something specific about software

Not sure why you feel lured into saying something specific about tech or leadership. If you don't think there are differences there between men and women on average, then we agree.

> wouldn't it follow naturally from what you said (which is the uncontested scientific consensus) that women would, in the aggregate, prefer some other professions than men do, in the aggregate?

Perhaps, but research has yet to show it. I wouldn't assume this is true for things like tech or leadership.

> do you find it offensive when people say so?

No, however it is misleading to say there is scientific consensus about something when there isn't. If I had this kind of discussion with Damore in person, like some at Google did, and he persisted in believing that science says something it didn't, then I would believe he has some ulterior agenda. That politics was a primary agenda of his paper says something. Politics shouldn't be the basis for scientific discussion, in my opinion.

> Or do you feel that how people answer reflects on them as a person?

Everything does. Not much you can do about that is there.

> I get the impression that simple, factual things like this is really an identity thing for some - which I just cannot wrap my head around

I don't know how science is an identity. It can be discussed on its evidence, methods and conclusions. Identity doesn't need to play into it. Science can definitely be misconstrued. But I would say today's top peer-reviewed journals are all of high quality, and if you find a scientist who's published in that sphere, they can give a better overview of this subject than Damore did.

This came up in a thread about banks. Some finance institutions, or at least their employees, nowadays explicitly talk about themselves as technology companies that do finance. I had an interviewer at Morgan Stanley say this to me just last year. I used to work on the Quartz platform at Bank of America. It's a fantastic technology stack including dev and release tooling, authentication and security layers, configuration defined infrastructure, custom GUI and web front end libraries and tons of other really cool state of the art tech. All the big banks employ many thousands of developers.

A lot of companies are realising that for technology to be a competitive advantage it has to be more than just off the shelf. Banks are pushed this way partly due to regulatory pressure - they can't simply outsource their legal obligations or therefore the technology that implements them. But that's just an additional pressure pushing them that way. It's certainly not the only one. Nowadays lots of service companies are going this way.

Is AI the new Social?
It's not necessarily that hard: Showtime, Starz, HBO, Netflix, Amazon, Disney, FX, AMC, Comedy Central, ..., already all exist.

Some of the most ambitious players right now may have to scale back, and the "deliver it all to the same place" problem that's been present ever since cable-alternatives started popping up is mostly unsolved (though some of them are starting to tackle this, as are companies like Apple and Roku) but the number of channels is hardly new.

> Netflix is just getting started in ripping up the old order.

Not sure I like the direction the new order is taking, really look more and more like the old order to me. Before you need to pay for cable packages to get a random set of channels. The new order is that you pay various providers offering a random set of exclusive shows. It is still cheaper at the moment though.

What I'm hoping to see is big streaming network starting to use exclusive content as currency between themselves to share their catalogs. However, I'm not sure what would be their differentiator. Netflix is superior to DVD and the channel delivery mode of cable. However, Netflix vs Hulu vs HBO vs ... there is not much more to fight than price. Keeping their content exclusive on the other hand is very easy to sell.

Have you ever used a table saw?

When shut off, the blade doesn't have "low momentum"; if it were clutched, it would still be spinning fast enough to seriously mangle or sever fingers. An active brake won't be fast enough.

Remember, each tooth is flying at an insane amount of speed; you need to be able to stop the saw dead in a fraction of the length of the tooth (within the length of about 3/4" - about the thickness of an adult hand/finger). You don't - you can't - do that with a friction brake, or even some hypothetical friction plus e-braking (regenerative braking).

That spinning mass of steel has a ton of momentum, even disconnected from the motor. The only way to reliably stop is is to quickly jam something non-yielding into the teeth of the saw.

If you can figure out another way, kudos to you! But I would suggest you first learn about what and how a table saw works first, just to know what kind of forces you are dealing with. They are anything but small.

Training isn't the issue. They've rejected F# based on its perceived weaknesses compared to C#.
Didn't mean to imply that was a good idea, just that it's possible. It looks like the top supercomputers are getting close to surpassing 64 petabytes (56 bits byte-addressed) of virtual memory space, so 16-bit tags are right out. A 48-bit byte-addressed memory space is 256 terabytes, which is getting snug for high-end servers but still 15±5 years out for consumer hardware.

48-bit byte-addressed: 256 terabytes

Love to see more Kubernetes success stories.

I work for an ISP and we are trying to write another success story ;) As an ISP, we have tons of constraints in terms of infrastructure. We're not allowed to use any public cloud services. At the same time, the in-house infrastructure is either too limited, or managed via spreadsheets by a bunch of dysfunctional teams.

For my team, Kubernetes has been truly a life saver when it comes to deploying applications. We're still working on making our cluster production-ready, but we're getting there very fast. Some people are already queuing up to get to deploy their applications on Kubernetes :D

What I especially love about Kubernetes is how solid the different concepts are and how they make you think differently about (distributed) systems.

It sure takes a lot of time to truly grasp it, and even more so to be confident managing and deploying it as Ops / SRE. But once you get it, it starts to feel like second nature.

Plus the benefits, in almost any possible way, are huge.

I don't think there is a game to know in this instance. Failing to recognize authoritian leaders and their often zealous followers has killed far to many people through history to be dismissed easily. Hopefully Trump is not either one of them, or paving the way for one, but it's certainly no game.

I'm sure Obama did things wrong, but all that has already happened, and I fail to see how it's even remotely relevant to actual current events, and it doesn't in any way refute what the parent poster wrote.
> Enhancements to our internal deployment application to support deploying Kubernetes resources from a repository into a Kubernetes namespace, as well as the creation of Kubernetes secrets from our internal secret store.

Would love to hear more about this was accomplished. I'm currently exploring a similar issue (pulling per-namespace Vault secrets into a cluster). From what I've found, it looks like more robust secrets management is scheduled for the next few k8s releases, but in the meantime have been thinking about a custom solution that would poll Vault and update secrets in k8s when necessary.

> "Kardashian is only famous for being famous, as she enjoys no other intrinsic, artistic value as a performer or entertainer."

Even if she did have artistic talent, the 'value' of that talent would still be based on whether people wanted to listen to her or watch her perform, so it's still fundamentally linked to her desirability and people's belief in it or valuation of it.
I guess if I were to boil it down it'd come to this. If integration doesn't help minority students then you have to believe in seperate but equal. If you don't believe that our schools are seperate but equal then you should be in favor of integration so that everybody has ownership in the problems our schools and children face.

But I mean let's be honest here, are you really going to accept that integration worked? I'd like to believe it but experience tells me probably not. Because of the backfire effect I don't think you're likely to be convinced by some guy on the internet quoting social science research (especially since no research is perfect.) So here, let me give you a more human element. Here's three This American Life episodes, the first two are explicitly about integration and the third is about kids from a poor, public school visiting a rich, private school which is slightly less topical but helps to get the point across I think. Just listen and consider please.

I actually don't really support these movements. I would prefer that we entirely deligitimize the notion of 'terms of service' having any measure of enforceability or weight.

No, I have not read your terms and I do not agree with them. I do, however, reject the legitimacy of their use and will happily check a box that lets me proceed unmolested.

And by continuing to provide your service to me, you agree that that my implicit rejection of your TOS' legitimacy is correct. That attitude from a customer towards every business is just as reasonable as a business expecting every customer to read and implicitly accept their specific and lengthy legal stipulations.

Seriously?

1.) That might be populist opinion but surely is not comparable to what Hitler did. Or do you seriously claim that people like Sanders, Warren use the same rhetoric as Hitler? That's ridiculous. Hitler was blaming Jews and other minorities and the Versailles treaty for the bad economic situation in Germany. Interestingly Trump is doing the same thing (Nafta, China, Mexicans etc)

2.) The overthrow of the Libyen regime was mainly pushed and pursued by us Europeans (France, England, etc). The USA was in the beginning hesitant and eventually participated. Just to make clear: This was a stupid decision and Obama also admitted this as his worst mistake. Hitler never admitted a mistake or defeat (see Leningrad). Guess what Trump also does not admit

3.) Sorry, but that's part of geopolitics (just to make it clear: It's actually the reason why half of the world is fucked up by wars) and almost every powerful nation has done this in the past and will do this in future. So not sure what you are comparing here.

4.) So then almost all of Europe must have a Nazi healthcare system? Hitler was also a fascist and thus more an ally of corporations, banks and companies than of the people. Some of his policies could have been mistaken as socialist but in reality they were part of his plan to please the population (construction of highways, pumping money into the economy for short term gain). His entire ideology was built around a super-race and elites which is quite the opposite what a "socialist" healthcare system is all about.

5.) Citation needed for the fact that 2/3 of Americans dislike transgender bathrooms. Trump's policies (taxes, healthcare) are so unpopular that he can't even pass them with a Republican Senate and House. Apart from that Hitler tapped into a huge antisemitic sentiment that was carried by a wide majority of people. If that hadn't been the case, he would have never be able to create his Nazi regime. I also think this is the main difference to today. The alt-right, KKK and Nazi clowns are a minority - a loud one - but still a minority. So I don't think that we are facing another Nazi regime.
Nevertheless you can clearly see similarities between Trump and Hitler behavior. The only difference is that Trump lacks the intellectual capacity (maybe Bannon has it) in order to pull something off that Hitler had done.

> By using microservices to help create faster, more secure, and more flexible websites/apps, we can bypass the static server-side approach.

Goes on to describe deploying static sites. Maybe they meant: by avoiding dynamic server-side stuff we can push microservice routing and integration to the client (trading away some levels of cache for more demand on clients and microservice providing dynamic content)?

[ed: the statement does make some sense if the intent was to contrast static server provisioning with dynamic server (vps/container/PaaS) provisioning]
>Why do you think outsourcing data analysis vs doing it in house changes how an outsider should evaluate the business?

This is the crux of the matter. Why roll your own tech when you can buy off the shelf?

Off the shelf tech is, by definition, old tech. If you roll your own you can have a new feature, optimisation or bug fix in production the same day it comes out of QA. The lead time for vendor tech can be months, or even years. If you prioritise a new feature likewise you can have your devs working on it the same day it gets green lit. Try that with a vendor. Controlling your own technology stack, sometimes even developing your own dev tooling internally, can be a decisive competitive advantage.
This is an unquestionable technical achievement, but its important to keep in mind that the AI view of the world is through the bot API. This is compared to a human that decodes game state from observing the monitor. Not being an avid DOTA2 player I marvel at skilled players that can follow the game based on what looks like a very busy and colorful mess to me.

At the same time most of the deep learning field has been focusing on implementing super-human perceptual abilities (vision, hearing, translation) that come instinctually to humans. The higher level reasoning and memory/attention augmented machine learning is still cutting edge research. I think DeepMind and OpenAI are driving research towards that end.
