Both of those situations are one where policy could be changed to solve the problem with relative ease.

A side effect would be that it would probably be more clear to human drivers as well.

But if they thought that btrfs was the future, they would definitely have put in the manpower to maintain and backport btrfs. Red Hat probably believes that XFS + LVM et al. can provide the necessary functionality for enterprise setups on a more reliable basis.

Recent Redhat decision may also be related to their investment in Storage products Ceph (~175 million in 2014) and GlusterFS (~125million in 2011) not just about stability of btrfs.

As someone who previously experienced with distributed storage like emc-Isilon and also fuse-based glusterfs, btrfs has huge potential for enterprise storage. It does also need more effort on testing front at this moment. hoping that soon btrfs will become default fs for most Linux distros.
$15 and hour waiting tables is not really good. I was making around $12 an hour waiting tables in Dayton Ohio back in 2001, and I wasn't tipped. If I had gone to a place with tips I would have made much more.

I think packaging it up as a ready-to-use, cross-platform installable (which just happens to be in the docker container format) is better than expecting every desktop user to "install python3 python3-pip -y pip3 install pyspeedtest hurry.filesize tweepy". If the typical "desktop user" can't install one software with easily accessible installation instructions, is it reasonable to expect them to install 5 without?

I find this quite weak argumentation coming from SUSE. Novell/SUSE was also (by far) the largest contributor to AppArmor at some point. And SUSE used it as the MAC framework in their consumer and enterprise distributions. Then seemingly out of nothing they fired the AppArmor team.

> Patterns do fit stereotypes perfectly.

No they don't. "Stereotype" is a psychological concept, and therefore by definition incorporates human subjectivity. There are various conflicting definitions, but most include the possibility or likelihood that many overstate or even completely falsely construct generalizations.

Or, as Wikipedia[1] states,

> By the mid-1950s, Gordon Allport wrote that, "It is possible for a stereotype to grow in defiance of all evidence."

> Research on the role of illusory correlations in the formation of stereotypes suggests that stereotypes can develop because of incorrect inferences about the relationship between two events (e.g., membership in a social group and bad or good attributes). This means that at least some stereotypes are inaccurate.

It's a straightforward effect of financialisation.

It's because you get the benefit of the part exchange value of the car in three years time now, rather than in three years time.

That simple discounted present value trick allows you to have a nicer car the first time you get on a PCP plan, because it lowers the total amount of credit on that plan vs the alternative.
It's true. I write enterprise .NET for health care and energy companies :).

But you get to write some cool things. The last three things I built were

A system that takes sensor data from wells across the world, runs them through a physics engine, and displays those results to users across the world in real time.

A web app that lets users easily write complex queries to retrieve cancer tissue information across multiple departments in a large research institution.

An app to upgrade an entire codebase using a compiler to figure out the semantic meaning of different code snippets and transform them to the new version.

So it's not all boring :).

And I haven't met a mediocre dev who was familiar with Hacker News. Honestly I've thought about replacing my tech interviews with one question "Have you heard of Hacker News?"

Looks like they're running 3.10 on RHEL7.4, which is a pretty old long term release. I mean there are long term 4.x branches now.
I'm not sure I follow on the "your privacy can be defeated by people upstream or downstream of you." In ZCash, your transaction is completly indistinguishable from the other shielded transactions. The only thing the person you are paying learns is they were paid e.g. $10 by a shielded TX user. So they learn nearly nothing from upstream, and know nearly nothing to share downstream. In particular, this seems to completely negate the attack described in this paper. (Which coinjoin does not).

The limitation for ZCash is that shielded tx's are only 1/5th of the total number of TXs by volume, so your anonymity set is not as large as it could be.
But it's likely considerably larger than the anonymity you get by mixing < 10 TX's and then doing this repeatedly both because of intersection attacks (which the attack here is) and because of the impossibility of correctly sampling the TXs to mix with.
Show HN: ShortcutRef.com – discover and learn shortcuts easily and quickly
Hi, my name is Yadong and I'm learning to build web apps. I just made a website (https://shortcutref.com) for shortcut references in the past week.

It has very clean UI and shows only the relevant shortcuts you need with short and precise descriptions. The goal of this tool is to help users learn shortcuts of a specific application in a few minutes.

Let me know if you like it and I'll add GIF and search support.

Thanks!
This is inspired by my first project when I was still a student(2002's). One of my professor wanted to have an application that does a question and answer test for his electric/electronic class. He wanted to fit on a floppy disk, and can be distributed to all of his students.
The questionnaires was then encoded in plain text and I made a parser to go through each of the questions and their corresponding choices/answer. I skipped on questions that has diagrams and figures, since the program will only run on the terminal and I don't know any simple document formats at that time.

Why does it annoy you? Are you concerned that you may not get a fair deal? Less happy that colleagues at the same job level may be getting paid more or less?

To get a balanced perspective it would useful to read up on both sides of the approach. For example, on one end you have Google's Laszlo Bock arguing in his book Work Rules, that its good that Google "pays unfairly" (https://goo.gl/3hWbQw). On the other end, are the Scandinavian countries like Norway where you can walk into a tax office and see anyone's tax return (https://goo.gl/P5WqW1)

Google unveils a cheaper networking for cloud customers: the public internet
Oracle sells Oracle Linux, a RedHat clone. ZFS on Linux (ZoL) isn't controlled by Oracle, it is a fork of OpenSolaris version of ZFS. The ZFS sold by Oracle on Solaris isn't the same product and doesn't support Linux. Oracle doesn't want to support it on Linux because it would fragment one of the remaining cash cow they got from Sun. And anyway, they probably can't support ZoL even if they wanted to without putting themselves into self induced legal gray water. Apparently, they intend to move Solaris into a rolling model like Windows 10, but focused on legacy. They can sell ZFS there without affecting their Linux operations. There is also a rumor of a deal with NetApp not to support ZFS on Linux. All combined, BTRFS is a better suited tech for them to support.

That's called HTML. Nothing special.
>That's an opportunity that happened to open up for him through a series of events outside of his control. But he wouldn't have been offered that part if he wasn't of a certain caliber in the first place.

How many actors were of that quality and didn't get a series of events leading to that opportunity? Opportunities arising are luck, no one is saying hard work isn't necessary to take advantage of the opportunities.

>I can smell the privilege and white guilt ideology that underpins articles like this. I've seen it before in much lengthier pieces. This one is no different.

This one is different as it does not take the further step of showing how rich white men tend to get far more opportunities than other groups. If you start from the question "what makes people successful," you will see luck playing a role before you look to see which people are luckier. Saying that a "white guilt ideology" drives this is looking at it backwards.
That just feels tragic and silly. Probably many of the same types of shops that won't build the automated dev/ops infrastructures and end-to-end integration tests that let people move up stacks and updates rapidly.

I haven't worked at a place that used RHEL in a long time. Unless you use one of their enterprise products like their directory or identity management system, there's no real reason to not use CentOS .. or really anything else for that matter.
I'm not sure if it has changed recently, but I just tried it and the browser back button is working fine (it goes back to the search results).

My only real complaint about AMP is the scrolling - it doesn't feel natural and breaks shrinking the browser UI (I have an iPhone 5S, so screen real-estate is a premium).
I didn't say packaging is bad.

I live in San Francisco and have made 120k for the last year (just recently got a raise to 130k). I don't have a family to support, and live with friends renting a bedroom for 1600/mo in a 4br in Bernal Heights (I prefer to live with people, so not having a 1br apartment downtown helps a lot).

My take home is around 77k annually and I got about 1300 back from taxes last year. I eat out/go to bars a couple times a week, but mainly try to cook for myself. I have a few hobbies that eat money and I end up spending a couple hundred at least every month on them. I travel every 3-4 months, have gone to Seattle, NY, Vancouver, LA in the last year.

With all this I've still saved somewhere between 30-35k. I also bought a motorcycle with all the crap that comes with that (gear, insurance, parts, etc) in that period, so if I hadn't then I'd probably have another 8k or so.

I honestly make more than enough money to live comfortably and when I moved to the city I was only making 80k and my rent was the same. I still felt I had enough to live comfortably but I wasn't able to save nearly as much.

120k will be fine as a single person in SF. If you have a family maybe not.
But it is a bubble with a feedback loop.

(i) car manufacturers are big enough parts of the market that they can buy up used cars and scrap them/export them, putting the cost of that onto new cars

(ii) they can lobby government to introduce environmental standards. Japan exports a good part of its used cars because of the cost of maintaining a used model.

The difference with cars over houses, is that cars are mobile.

So the issue, if there is one, is just the usual one of over-lending via agency originators and securitising those bad loans onto muppet pension funds searching for yield. But that's not unique to the car market.
I'm solidly in favor of listing a company without the ruthless and ( generally) worthless burden of underwriters. If you actually have real value, put your stock out there and raise capital.

I think it describes it quite well as long as you assume the problem of making a 3D model from a picture is already a solved but computationally expensive problem. That's the part it doesn't go into but that's not what this research is about. Though I think most readers will still be interested in that - I didn't know it had been solved already.

It's not making a surface mesh, it's putting voxels on the surface. Again, it doesn't make that distinction very clear up front so I guess it's not targeted at people familiar with traditional 3D surface meshing.
Also, consider that the desire for greener pastures is a very top-down cultural thing in the US, that's not always true world wide (though, it increasingly seems that way.)

By number of students, most higher ed institutions are community colleges, which are (for the most part) low on the BS and extra fun. For profits, and a growing number of 'bootcamp' type schools also fit in this area.

However, 4 year schools (starting off with good ol' Harvard) completely dominate the idea of what higher ed is like. Employers still revere 4 year degrees and a "big name" still has its advantages. Many students grow up thinking that's the only/right/best option for them - so between dozens of essentially equivalently good schools (i.e. The "Top 50", and arguable the top 100-200 too), students pick on factors other than learning.

A few months ago, 538 wrote a fun piece called "Shut Up About Harvard", which is worth a read.

Well, "race" is an antiquated concept, without any coherent biological basis. Black African-Americans just happen to carry particular genes that affect skin color. Many Americans descended from African slaves are nominally white. Including many of those poor white dudes from West Virginia. AncestryDNA and 23andMe have blown many minds ;)

Well... a very large portion of the value proposition of CentOS is that Red Hat will backport patches, and that CentOS users will get those patches for free, in case they don't want to change anything until they move up to the next major release.
It's not 3.10 from kernel.org. There are many backported patches adding support for selected new features, new hardware, etc. It doesn't make much sense to just compare numbers.
