CI in Gitlab is one YAML file you check into source control with each project. CI in TFS is navigation through a bunch of menus.

Gitlab can be fully installed as one Docker container, plus a second container if you want a CI runner (although, to be fair, it took me a while to make them talk to each other). Upgrading Gitlab is just starting a container for the new version with the old one's data. TFS is... not as straightforward.

Also, cost.
Code yes. Issue tracker and other features? Not so easy.
Yeah I was really surprised how easy their CI runner was to set up (I didn’t want to use the public ones for my company’s projects). Like you say it’s pretty much “install from apt, run this command”. Wonderful.
It's fascinating how one can read claims such as "Mauryan and the Mughal empires bringing immense prosperity to the region" with no substantiation here and then read a scholarly work on the topic of history of world's economy that in connection with India talks about "wasteful use of resources and negligible levels of productive investment" or "little motive to improve landed property" or "[raising] so much in tax revenue ... [because] the rural population [was] very docile" or "long term stagnation and negligible levels of productive investment" or "no agricultural handbooks or governmental attempts to bolster agricultural productivity" or "crop yields ... stagnant over the long run" or ...
So basically, you'd like to just destroy any productivity the UK has by flooding it with low skilled ag-workers who would need to live off of government subsidies?

Probably more like $0.15, since you don't need to leave the coffee on the burner for 6 hours, thus saving on energy costs.
Right. There's almost always someone that can do a deep dive on an interesting, esoteric technical topic. No resource on the web like it with this level of diversity and depth.
If you are a US citizen entering the US (don't try this if you're a green card holder or a visitor), then in the case of (3), they can't hold you indefinitely, although they can hold your phone indefinitely.

This has never happened to me, and it probably never will, but if it does my plan is to refuse to unlock the phone and wait it out.

If $14M is a life changing amount of money for you, if you aren't already monetarily set for life, then take the deal. Having that kind of financial freedom will afford you the opportunity to start other, risker, ventures in the future. On the other hand, if you're already very wealthy, it might not be worth exiting right now.

OpenShift is a fork of Kubernetes. Case in point. OpenShift has functionality called a Route. That isn't in Kubernetes. Kubernetes of course went and added something similar called ingress.

This means that anytime Kubernetes does a release that RedHat has to manage merging all those changes in with their local changes that aren't part of their project.

This is exactly the same sort of thing that RedHat does with their Linux kernels. It's exactly why you RHEL has been such a terrible platform to run Docker on. Because RedHat is only pulling in some of the upstream changes into their kernels rather than upgrading everything.

This sort of merging is slow, error prone and costly. If you use anything that they've added that isn't in the upstream it creates vendor lock-in. Sure OpenShift's Route code is open source, but you can't take that to any other vendor without building everything yourself. Want that new feature in the latest Kubernetes release, you better be prepared to wait.

As time goes on it will become harder and harder for them to maintain this fork. If OpenShift doesn't become the dominate Kubernetes distribution then RedHat may lose interest in it and then you'll lose your maintenance of that fork. For that matter, if RedHat loses the maintainers as employees they may lose their ability to maintain this fork.

It's my opinion that anyone buying OpenShift is playing with fire.

The fact that RedHat has failed to get their modifications integrated upstream and have to maintain themselves is a massive failure on their part. This sort of thing was understandable in the past, but we really should expect more of them now.
Performance improvements will not come magically just because they invented a new language and are re-writing everything in this language.

I know I sound like an asshole, but it's only because I think Firefox is my last chance for a free web and am disappointed with the route it takes.

I really wish they prove me wrong and in 2-3 years Firefox will be a marvel, re-written from scratch in Rust, but I am afraid that even if that's the case it will be too late.
Are you confused RT with IMDb by any chance? IMDb do have inflated rating for new-ish movies, but I don't think RT has the same issue (if you are looking at critic rating a.k.a. freshness, not the user rating)
There has been interesting research over the last couple years on this topic. It is in fact not royal jelly that pushes female bees down the queen development path, but rather the addition of honey and pollen that stops them from becoming queens. Feeding beebread to female larvae is what alters their gene expression to less developed ovaries, because of a specific plant chemical, where they would all normally develop into queens.

If you're not profitable enough to hire without borrowing money, then that's something to really look at. You don't have to hire 15 people. And taking on money is giving away your control; you'll have to bow to the VC's wishes because they bankrolled you. If you can go without, I'd go without and keep on chugging.

And depending on how you're structured now, $14M is a LOT or it's quite a bit and you can take your time looking for the next thing....

I don't see the problem with that. Rotten Tomatoes is a review site where people judge the quality of a movie, not the popularity of a movie. You're probably thinking of popularity when you say that, because to me, Rogue One was kind of "meh", but that's just my opinion.
IMO You need to look into both options until you get at least (a) a letter of intent for acquisition or (b) a term sheet from a VC. If you can, get both, then consider taking the VC money if you can get a significantly higher valuation and good terms.

I recall a VC interview recently where he said (paraphrasing) not accepting cold emails and requiring an introduction is a filter that proves you know how to hustle and make some connections. That's a skill you're going to need anyway.

If you're willing to do that, start working your network of former classmates, co-workers, bosses, friends, etc. Don't be afraid to make phone calls, ask for favors, etc. If you are in the US, attended a university, and worked in tech there's really no excuse for not being able to get some warm intros to investors.

On the acquisition side, definitely pursue that but don't be mistaken thinking "interest" == "sure thing acquisition". 8-figure acquisitions don't happen without a shit-ton of due-diligence. If you feel someone is truly interested, retain an M&A lawyer and get their advice before giving access to anything beyond basic numbers.

Good luck and expect to be challenged/busy whichever way you go.
Way back in the day, the help documentation shipped with MSDOS really helped me out. IIRC it had a colored text-graphical interface that let you look at all the commands and what they could do.

Really helped out a young kid figure out how to write autoexec.bat/config.sys files so that his games could run. Being able to write menus so I could customize my setup for each game was so amazing.

With the advent of the internet the quality of on-system help documentation has stagnated.
Here's one photographer using cheap point-and-shoot that comes quickly to mind: is Magnum photographer Alex Majoli good enough for you? He preferred to work with an Olympus C5050 point-and-shoot, which was cheap back then and you can pick up for $50 or less on ebay right now:

Seriously, photography is probably best example of a subculture full of amateurs who obsess over gear and think throwing more money at gear is going to give them a better end product (although there are many similar subcultures). Crap is crap, however good the gear is that's used to make it.

Here you can read another article about a professional photographer's use of cheaper cameras:

"Even if you'd eventually make $50m, your life wouldn't change much from a net worth of $14m to $50m. You could buy a nicer jet?"

I know you're kidding around here, but all kidding aside, whether your net worth is $14M or $50M, you can't afford a jet. (I mean, nominally speaking, you can front the sticker price -- but you'll get eaten alive on fuel and maintenance over the jet's useful lifespan, and the jet as an asset is depreciating all the while.)

I say this almost as a reflex. I used to work in talent management many lifetimes ago, and I'd actually find myself having this talk with people in this specific situation. Explaining to someone who just made $10M on a single movie that s/he can't afford a jet is a surreal experience. Sorry for the tangent!
The siri/android problem doesn't seem to happen with the dedicated GPS nav systems I have. Maybe its a sample rate problem with phones (trying to save power), or just better smoothing, or relative plotting with the dedicated receivers. 5M is less than the distance between most highways and their frontage roads, so blaming the GPS signal itself for being unable to determine if your on the frontage road 15 seconds after you got on the highway is pretty lame.

I frequently run my ten year old TomTom, alongside my wifes iphone or my android on road trips. The tomtom is pretty much always dead on with respect to lanes/turning/etc, while the iphone/android regularly feeds us crap. That said, I would kill for google maps (pc browser version) style route planning on the tomtom where you can click various roads and get time estimates even if goggle doesn't think its a good route.
Funny enough, I recently came across an old old recipe for ergot wine.

Which paper are you speaking about? Certainly, I'm always interested in a more complete history. I'm currently on LeCun's page and can't figure out which paper you're speaking to:

http://yann.lecun.com/exdb/publis/index.html

More generally, a common trope in NN papers and books is to draw a graph for matrix-vector multiplication and then draw the analogy that these are like neurons in the brain and this represents their connectivity. This is an example of the kind of backwalking biological analogies that frustrate me. Again, certainly, I don't know the motivations behind everyone in the field, but I do contend that many of the more powerful theorems have nothing to do with biology and have other origins.
HIV evolves with amazing (super-villian-ic) speed. Many "cures" attack 99% of cells, or similar. Resistance is evolved during treatment, and is usually uniform within just a few months. It mutates/evolves so fast that given just virus samples, it is possible to determine sequence of infection.

I think it needs to kill more than 6-9's before it has a good chance at being a cure.
Do you feel like that about vaccines and people refusing them as well? Or what about smoking in public places?

Because the way I see it, this is more than the health of the individual at risk, being about the health of the group.
Redhat might be doing well but many open source projects clearly aren't. There are routine SOS posted here about projects in dire straits. So how much of this revenue does downstream see?

Something as critical as Gnupg was recently in trouble and got funding from Stripe and Facebook.

Companies like Redhat acquire projects or hire project leads for influence but few really seem to 'support' open source. Docker is a VC funded company that was entirely built on open source and has made many acquisitions so they had the money but how much support did they give the LXC project, Overlayfs, Aufs and all the other open source projects they use/used?

Github uses Redis but let alone support they never even bothered to tell the author. Do they even support Git in any meaningful way?

If open source is used to provide free software to startups who them promptly forget about it we will get more SOS and interesting projects will dry up.

We will then be left with companies like Redhat and others building open source software requiring large teams which cannot be easily replicated by the open source model.
How can you do that???
I like it for the free private repos and the built-in CI that's pretty easy to use. At one point I was using Trello to manage my plans, but GitLab's issue board works just as well to my surprise!

I still switch between Hub and Lab, but seeing GitLab's growth makes me smile.
$7m is still more than most people make _in a lifetime_. There's no material difference in quality of life between a net worth of $7m vs $14m.

Even $2m would mean you could take a very long sabbatical then come back and bootstrap your next startup idea.
I think he is implying they could do better as the founders and stewards of these systems. But I don't think he is directly calling them out.
I can't speak for others, but there's no way in hell I'm giving any company direct debit abilities to my bank account. Given the fuck-ups we see here daily by banks and businesses, I think anyone who does that is playing with fire. But if it works for you, go for it! I'll spend the 5 minutes every other week to type in the amount needed on my bank's website to send whoever an electronic payment rather than letting them pull money from my account. It's worth the time to me.

All Uber drivers in london must be licensed by TFL to operate. That license is the valuable bit, and is entirely seperate to uber.

Why is the license a good idea? because it stops rapists posing as taxi drivers (which alas is still a problem even with prominant signage.)

Uber only provides a customer gateway, there are may other out there.

For those of you in the US, the important thing to note is that the market is much freer than say new york, there are only two requirements:

1) a safe car

2) a minicab license (https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/taxis-and-private-hire/licensing...) which is reasonably cheap.

As a customer, I'm happy with that level of regulation.
No, RT.

Something to keep in mind, a lot of movies when bought are good, but then people come in and muck with the script (either producers/execs tell the original screenwriter to make these changes, or they hire someone else to do it).

Hollywood has a collection of processes that allow people with little experience in telling stories to influence how said stories are told, and then those who come after have to deal with the fallout. It is more than a little gross.

Uhmmmm, does the Ottoman Empire or Mughal Empire still exist? The British Government is still run in the name for the Monarch who was the monarch of the Britsh empire while it still existed. The government is still run by the descendants of the British political elite (eg. House of lords) who carried out those atrocities. No common people should be blamed for sins of a regime but the elite who perpetuated and benefitted from those atrocities and passed on the benefits to their offsprings are fair game.
IMO, as I've said elsewhere on this thread, I really don't think it's useful to talk about the C-in-ACID and the C-in-CAP as if they were completely different things. The original research (both Gray's and Brewer's) clearly talks about it in terms of interface guarantees on your data, and the latter is directly built upon the former. As a user, all I care about is that the new data shows up once the system accepts it, no buts.

What good is my Postgres single-node ACID if I have to do all this work to deal with replication lag?
Wireless Energy Transmission by Nikola Tesla pointed to an entirely different approach. Using the earth as a resonant cavity, signals of electric conduition could be intoned and subsequently amplified by "striking" at the appropriate time and place on the globe, eventually saturating the well of the earth with such strong ambient electrical potential that anyone could stick an antenna into the ground and harvest electricity. Of course, no one has really demonstrated this yet, and these findings are based on my own research, but Tesla surely thought he was onto something and it does seem like a logical endpoint of wireless energy, that it would be freely and easily available anywhere on the planet. It is very much different from putting up cell towers and blasting powerful radiation, but maybe we will compromise with a hybrid approach.

What I'm saying is that movies that would otherwise be ignored might be achieving surprise popularity due to strong reviews on Rotten Tomatoes - Hidden Figures as a case in point. It was the #1 movie in America, not some obscure art film, which is the fate I would expect for such a subject, told in such a way. I think popularity followed from quality.

Of course, any ol' movie labeled Star Wars will do well, by virtue of brand.

Yes, Because Steve Jobs is akin to Jeff Bezos, can run a company focusing on consumer needs rather than lust for wall street. While Tim Cook's job is running the company from Front while also giving hope the shareholders much of what Ballmer Schmidt did.

Steve launched the iPod with a scrolling ball.

I gotta say--I love gitlab. We use a self-hosted version of it and it's fantastic. I think the best thing about it is the extra features don't bog down the interfaces. With tools like JIRA, or even github, it seems that to "use more" of it, you kinda nuke the new user experience by making interactions unnecessarily complicated. GitLab seems to generally work and keep simple while adding a whole lot--they balance it well.

Recently, I added a webhook that takes all our GitLab pushes and parses out JIRA information and automatically handles that sort of business-level logic (issue handling, visibility, etc.), which means I spend less time boring myself to death in JIRA. It's just one facet of what I appreciate about GitLab.
