Redhat is technically doing the enterprises a big favor by adding support on top of tested open source technologies and making the applications enterprise ready. Redhat (IBM, and so on) is also doing open source community a big favor by making the open source technologies ready to compete with the closed source enterprise application providers, such as- Oracle, Microsoft and so on.

If it is about packaging open source for profit, then Redhat has a lot to learn from Google. There is nothing that comes close to Android OS and Google's strategy to make the use of the term "open source" practically vague.
Show HN: Monitor your Raspberry Pi cluster with Prometheus metrics
It is important to monitor remote servers to make sure you are not running out of compute resource/memory or disk space. It's even more important on a Raspberry Pi cluster where your resources are especially limited. A full SD card can knock a Raspberry Pi off your network or prevent services from working.

Not a professional, but my wife has HIV (and I don't), so I have a personal interest in the subject.

> How many people taking retrovirals have undetectable levels of HIV?

According to my wife's doctor, most of them. And if that changes, they attempt to adjust treatment to return to that state.

BTW, undetectable appears to mean 20 copies of viral DNA per ml of blood.

> Are those people using condoms?

Well, we were, for many years. But we wanted children, and so after her doctor actually encouraged us we conceived them the old-fashioned way. I really, really enjoyed sex without a condom after so many years, I must say.

Now we have all the children we want, and we ought to go back to condoms, but I find myself wondering about the risk vs. reward. I suppose we'll go back to condoms, but I yearn to forgo them -- it's just less intimate. I wonder how other couples feel.
All these articles make it sound like anyone can launch a successful ICO and make millions on the spot but it's not true at all. Doing a successful ICO is very difficult and requires deep connections within the industry... It's probably only marginally easier than raising funding from a VC.

Ask HN: Which company do you think will survive longer, Google or Facebook?
Going by the increase in facebook's revenues, it seems it is likely to catch Google in operating profits very soon. Both companies have near monopoly in their domains. Which of these 2 do you think will manage to remain powerful longer?

dict.keys() returned a list earlier, now it returns a "view". dict already had keys() and iterkeys(). Is that what you were referring to by your ver2:floop and ver3:floop? They changed keys() to act essentially like iterkeys() and removed iterkeys() because per them, this is the correct behavior.

Most changes in python 3 won't be helped by macros. Macros would have helped if they were adding say pattern match. But even then, it doesn't really matter much. If python itself is adding pattern match, they can write it in C, or python, or write a macro(if python had it) - it would have been all the same to me.

I am not saying macros aren't useful. I am saying macros are useful in limited circumstances and existence of macros won't have done anything for python 2 to 3 migration.

Nothing changed at all. W3C came up with lots of stuff that vendors chose to ignore, and vice versa. Ever since the web was remotely popular, browser vendors did their own thing.

Browser DRM is no different from <font> in that respect. The only difference here is that the W3C didn't take years to bend over, but months.

This is like a kid crying "wolf!!" in the zoo.
The point is that if you're in direct competition, the chances of Facebook violating one of your patents is much higher, and then your cost of suing them is significantly increased (since you also have to rewrite your app).

If you're ok with trusting a direct competitor not to misbehave, then sure, use React under those terms while competing with FB. But large companies consider their patent portfolio to be a significant strategic asset, so it shouldn't be surprising that their legal counsel advises against accepting such a clause.
Possible, but apparently more a theoretical risk. Certainly small compared to other birth risks.

Until a few years ago, C-section was recommended, but the current wisdom is that vaginal birth poses no greater risk for the baby.

Same with breastfeeding. Until a few years doctors would call CPS if a HIV+ woman admitted to breastfeeding her child. Now, our doctors encouraged my HIV+ wife to breastfeed.

OTOH she was the second (or third?) HIV+ woman in our city who dared to.

Worked out for us. Both kids are HIV-, as am I.

I was traveling with a friend and we could benefit from changing flights. So my friend went to the counter to just ask about the possibility. He had my boarding pass but not my passport. He returned 20 minutes later with both boarding passes changed. The counter stuff just took his "word" for "he is my friend".

Edit: An hour later driving and thinking about it, I think it is the right move from the airline. The risk is small because identity theft and authentication hacking is not possible in this case. The Airport is a highly controlled environment and thus someone pulling this will have a higher chance of getting arrested. On contrast, you can't just take anonymous IPs on the Internet for their words. You have to carefully authenticate them and even then you can still have issues.

I agree that competition is generally good, but I hate choices so much. I don't even care if Vue is 10 times better than React, I've just spent the last year diving into React and React Native. I've finished 3 big projects and now I'm feeling more confident. And now I get the feeling that I have to throw out a whole bunch of experience and switch to the next big thing.

I think I'm going to dig in my heels this time. React is fine. It's more than fine, I absolutely love working with React, Redux, redux-saga, redux-observable, and a whole bunch of other libraries and patterns that I've finally begun to master after over a year of headaches and frustration. I'm not going to switch to Vue, not even for my next side project.

I didn't personally care about the BSD+Patents license, but you definitely have to keep your eyes and ears open with backlash like this. Even if I think it's a total issue, it might affect my ability to hire employees or even sell my company. So I'm really glad that React is now released under the MIT license.

If you believe that we should have UBI (and it seems like many here do), deflation is the exact opposite of it -- it slowly concentrates wealth with those who already have it, and all they have to do is hold the currency.

Whereas inflation at least basically forces the wealthy to invest in real assets or else slowly transfer the value of the cash towards debtors.
It has been redone (whether it sucks less is subjective, of course).
The Big Bang Theory is terrible and I have a god given right to hate people who watch it.
The lifetime of a large company depends usually on the way it manages their wealth, it does not depend on one or two "smart ideas, or well defined markets". So IMO both should have a long life (like Ford). But the life time of a company that relies on only a few markets, is much shorter (~20 years). Complexity is inherent to long life.

To give more context: Truly huge companies like Google or Facebook are actually conglomerates of thousands of informal tiny companies, that often are their main competition. Look for example to the large number of projects that Google created or companies it bought and then closed two years later. Each time there was people behind those projects, for them it was a huge stress when their project was dropped. This way to manage companies, helps their board to control competition by internalizing it.

Introduction to Back End as a Service (BaaS)
The late Roman republic also fell into a deflationary spiral, as the currency was repeatedly debased by successive governments desperate to fund the military.

This triggered massive hoarding of currency, despite harsh legal measures that tried to outlaw it. Everyone had an incentive to hoard the old, higher silver coins while shunning the new debased coins being issued [1]. 'Bad money drives out good' [2].

Eventually, the majority of the Roman economy became demonetized, and people had to resort to barter again. Welcome to the feudal ages.

[1] http://money.visualcapitalist.com/currency-and-the-collapse-...

[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gresham%27s_law

* Note that there is a confusion of terminology here -- things look inflationary if you are counting the number of coins it takes to buy something, but highly deflationary if you measure the amount of silver to buy the same item, as silver was sucked out of the economy and then hoarded.

From a certain perspective, both factors actually came together to destroy the late Roman monetary system -- the real 'store of value', silver, was removed from the system and hoarded because it was deflationary. And hyper-inflation in the fiat currency simultaneously made the coins totally worthless and therefore unsuitable for doing transactions.
A long overdue outcome of this new W3C disaster is the realization that the consumer or the general public doesn't sit at the table when it comes to shape the Web's destiny.

Self-proclaimed "standard bodies" W3C and WHATWG have failed to address the Web's rampant problems: privacy enforcement standards (or lack thereof), and oligopolistic or even monopolistic concentration of large parts of the web infrastructure in the hands of Google, Facebook, Cloudflare, and very few others, with a lack of incentive to do something about it because of W3C's and WHATWG's financial dependency on the very parties having no interest in changing the status quo.

What W3C and WHATWG do have delivered instead: DRM, and privacy-invading de-facto requirement of JavaScript for even the simplest of interactivity features, and WASM (even more privacy-invading, procedural features, from the guys that brought you JavaScript).

What I meant is that Facebook could just have used BSD without a patent grant.

But I read in other comments that some some lawyers think MIT implies a patent grant, which could explain why they switched from BSD to MIT.

No I'm not saying I have an issue with compile time validation. Far from it.

My point is that the borrow checker is explicitly meant to protect against data races and such. There are situations where I write code I can prove does not violate any hazards but Rust's "validation" is overly-zealous.

In general the trick with critics is to find those that you agree with on certain genres. No critic is really going to agree with you on everything. So find some that align with you on say action movies and some on dramas and interpolate a score. Eventually you learn their preferences and you can get a very good read on if you'll like a movie with just one or 2 critic reviews. You'll learn that some are into filming or score or other things more than you and you can ignore that.
I disagree. Most posts are manuscripts, or parts of them. It really helps for me to keep up with my field.
To quote a comment in a similar thread, apparently there's such a thing as an implied patent license:

Implied patent licenses:

https://www.wilmerhale.com/pages/publicationsandnewsdetail.a....

https://copyleft.org/guide/comprehensive-gpl-guidech7.html

Basically, if you sell or license a product that requires a patent to work, courts have generally held that you grant an implied patent license for any patents that the product might require. If you explicitly reference patents within the license, however, then whatever terms you explicitly write into the license supersede this implied patent license. BSD+patents (and Apache 2) have explicit patent language; paradoxically, this makes them more restrictive than licenses like MIT, BSD, or GPL that don't mention patents at all.

It always amazes me how short and limited our civilizations cultural memory is. It's great this is being done, perhaps this generation of musicians will find a new song in the archive to reinvent. This was done heavily in the 60's for rock, especially with blues, but the lens they were searching through was different, I am sure there are a lot of great songs that current listeners could enjoy (probably with added bass) that were not reintroduced in the 60's.
Why We Need Potentiam
Ask HN: Anyone running Node on Linux with memory RSS more than 16 GB?
We have noticed that Node's spawn() is not asynchronous on Linux with memory RSS more than 16 GB, blocking the event loop for as much as 2 seconds.

The issue comes down to Linux copying the entire RSS each time spawn() is called from the main event loop thread. Moving the uv_spawn() to the threadpool would likely fix the issue by not blocking the main event loop thread.

If you think you might be affected, there is a short script to reproduce here:

Since when has dumping become "charity in disguise" ?
This is the case I've seen the most. It also really speaks to what is the ultimate security hole which is human error and social engineering. Granted your friend was not being malicious, the fact that it was that easy is scary.
So, in other words, what you're effectively saying is that everyone's reaction to this is irrational, but understandable. People understand the MIT license (or even just the regular BSD license), but as soon as something brings patents into the mix, even if the clause actually gives you more rights and legal cover, people get scared and don't want to deal with it?

That's... sad.

> Being aware of patents ... makes punitive damages worse.

Sure, but that doesn't have anything to do with a BSD+Patents license. The license doesn't say "you also must do extensive patent research when using our software". You have to actually be aware of the patents that you're infringing to be held liable for extra damages.
I think it can, just like how we "co-exist" with wild cats. If they don't bother us too much we let them live, but humans always have priority.

Yes, I get that, and addressed the power imbalance in my comment...

But on second reading I realize I was wrong (in a good way). Facebook's patent grant specifically says that if they sue you for patent infringement, and you counter-sue with something that is unrelated to the software of FB's that you are using, then your license to use FB's software is NOT terminated. That's actually entirely reasonable and great.
