I've come to the realization in my short career that 90% of my time will be spent on activities that produce 10% impact and 10% of my time will go towards activities that have 90% impact. But the 10% time producing 90% impact stems from the fact that I spent the other 90% doing mundane work and understanding the environment/product/whatever problem am working towards solving.

As an example, my company uses Django and the first 6-8 months I have spent hours debugging what would be a stupid issue like misconfigured Django or missing url. Eventually, that led me to optimizing the version of shell_plus that my company was using improving its bootup time by 200%(this was a rather large codebase). That's an instant 200% gain per developer/per django shell load and is probably the most impactful thing I've ever done. We estimated it would save around 6.67 hours of developer time per day(2 minutes saved - was originally 2.45 * 200 developers * 1 shell load every day)

It sounds like it could be a very cut down version with just Hiro, Metaverse, maybe some sword swinging. I hope they'll go for more than just an extended action sequence in CGI world.
Thanks Kavya..
I got clarity now..
Big Fucking Rocket, actually.
"In the late stages of the Second World War, Evelyn Waugh was trapped in Europe in the company of Randolph Churchill, the boorish son of the wartime prime minister. "In the hope of keeping him quiet," he wrote to Nancy Mitford, "Freddie and I bet him £20 that he cannot read the whole Bible in a fortnight. Unhappily it has not had the result we hoped. He has never read any of it before and is hideously excited; keeps reading quotations aloud... or merely slapping his side & chortling 'God, isn't God a shit!'."

We were taught the bible every day by our splendid primary school headmaster, who had been a Spitfire pilot in WW2, and he seemed to focus on the most unpleasant bits of the Old Testament - even at at tender age this did not create a particularly positive impression of G. Years, later I did wonder if old Mr C was being just a wee bit subversive with us.
I believe TokuDB is using a flavor of B epsilon trees, i.e. a B tree with, per node, an associated staging area for writes to that node or its child nodes. Keeps inserts localised at the top of the tree, until the staging areas fill up. Then these staged inserts are propagated in batches down the tree.

In my opinion, a nice middle ground between the B tree and LSM approaches.

You do trust the origin site to send you to the correct next site right? :)

The big problem here is that you'll always still need DNS in a lot of cases, as webpages have long not been single-origin resources; most have to load all those tracking pages; also this would require all webpages to include that method, and also only works for web, the Internet is more than that.

I am looking forward to "DNS" pointing to more than just IPv4 and IPv6 though like in the above silly example ;)
This is very “annoying” as I usually am able to dismiss most modern TV shows because of mediocre to bad writing. Each and every show I am able to skip is a huge win in life/time – most good old Star Trek and TV shows of the 80s and 90s let you skip episodes without you losing track of (most of) the story.

I digress. I’ve read Snow Crash and Ringworld – for the most part they were genuinely fantastic, let’s hope they don’t over-polish (most new productions don’t have “soul” IMHO) and over-stretch the TV adaptations (mini series ought to be enough in these cases).

While they are already at it - time to see a show based on Ursula K. LeGuin’s writings as well.
All the features developed in HAProxy, are pushed in the -dev branch of the community version. They are available for free at your own risk (running a -dev code in prod), or you have to wait until -dev become stable.
HAProxy Enterprise users might already benefit from this feature in a stable way.

On the opposite, in nginx, some features are developed only in their proprietary solution. Sometime, nginx inc passes for heroes because they open source some of them...
I've never seen an iPhone displaying a CB message. Our mobile operator uses channel 50 to advertise network discounts, and iPhones don't display this, while many other phones do.

Does CB messaging work on iPhones?
Im not familiar with dockers so bear with me, but why is another container needed for the reverse proxy?
I have fond memories of Mr Rogers, but really find it pretty unwatchable (and so did my kids when they were of age). They loved Thomas for a while and fortunately they didn't absorb the ideological disaster embedded in virtually every storyline (Topham Hat is a stand in for God and explicitly judges everyone at the end of most episodes based on being "useful" -- to him -- and obedient). There are no significant female characters (my children are girls so that was particular;y annoying; although Dora is more annoying despite having a female main character) and the merchandising is horrible (multiple redundant and incompatible sets of trains and tracks that are all horribly over-priced)

Spongebob is a far better show in all respects (I hated it until I had kids). Aside from being hilarious on several levels, it is remarkably socially conscious without being preachy. Oh and it even has some recurring non-pathetic female characters.
It's a PowerPoint/Flash presentation, blown up to 41MB by making it into a video. It's essentially the same content as the P4.org paper.

Property title, availability of airspace, really any complex system that requires mutual cooperation (or at least awareness) could benefit from uniform distributed ledger technology.
Carbon neutral assuming you are creating the CH4 using atmospheric CO2. On Earth I suspect that most CH4 comes from natural gas. On Mars it would be carbon neutral - but that's actually a bad thing, assuming that your goal is to increase the atmospheric density on Mars.
no, this feature is already available in -dev community branch. So it's already available for free.

Note this feature has not yet been backported into HAProxy Enterprise...
For those fields, wouldn't one be significantly better of with a degree in advertising, journalism, marketing, film/media, policy (local/foreign), print/media, engineering, law?
Another example of a really small container that doesn't do much, but is made without using assembly directly is the Docker "hello-world". It's built from C without linking in libc:

https://github.com/docker-library/hello-world/blob/master/he...

I always thought this was a bit misleading. A "hello world" container is 1 kB, but the bare minimum container that does something useful in practice is rarely less than 100 MB in size.
awesome! (oh noes, it gets rid of the +-~j trick! :D)
I suggest you have a talk with patio11 and/or tptacek.

I think you will find that most organizations revealed preference is that they don't give a fuck about getting the best programmers. There are other factors that, rightly or wrongly, they value much more highly.
I'm a male, but I have this traditionally female role in my relationship. While the author's relationship may or may not be disfunctional, this is a real thing. An equitable relationship balances out this contribution.

The error here is confusing equality for sameness. We should celebrate and capitalize on our different strengths, preferences, and (since I'm heterosexual) genders.

We are not - and shouldn't be - the same. But we can equally contribute to our relationships in a way that befits ourselves.
That's not mainstream Christian opinion.

It's fair to say it misses many subtleties of mainstream Christian view, but it is still more true than untrue. The theology of sanctifying grace[1] and the mercy of salvation[2] are both New Testament ideals which are the core of mainstream Christian theology.

It's called Marcionism and it's universally condemned by mainstream Christianity.

Marcionism is a whole other thing, involving two gods: Marcionists believed that the wrathful Hebrew God was a separate and lower entity than the all-forgiving God of the New Testament.

The idea of there being two, separate gods is what made it heretical.

I had access to the Native Oberon version during the 90's.

Oberon was inspired by Mesa/Cedar, there are quite a few Xerox papers about how Mesa/Cedar used to work. This is probably the most relevant one.

Think about a Lisp/Smalltalk environment, but based on a strong typed language instead.

Regarding Oberon, it had similar ideas.

Basically there were no programs, only modules (strong typed dynamic libraries).

Any procedure/function that had a special type signature could be called from the CLI environment, UI action, or after selecting an UI element, depending on the way the mouse buttons were used.

Also the environment was focused on graphics not plain text.

The last version before Active Oberon was introduced, System 3 with Gadgets, had quite nice Amiga style GUI.

You can find tons of screenshots on my site.

Dune is hard to get right... although someone someday will make an excellent TV show out of Dune I think.
Yes, but saying that @linkregister's views are Marcionism does misrepresent their views completely.

Marcionism is nothing like what linkregister is claiming.

I apologize. I can do that. I'm going to generate that backtest you described.

Right now I have residual data from the AWS machine learning data that tells me weather there is any structure to the times it does guess wrong. And a value below baseline is a better than 50/50 guess according to what I have learned about how AWS does its ML. Knowing that I use this personally as a supporting indicator to my trade decisions. Since its so new and I really don't want people to think I'm scamming or something. I'm just releasing my results free for now, not trying to be a douche ;)

AWS defines the baseline as follows

Baseline RMSE
Amazon ML provides a baseline metric for regression models. It is the RMSE for a hypothetical regression model that would always predict the mean of the target as the answer. For example, if you were predicting the age of a house buyer and the mean age for the observations in your training data was 35, the baseline model would always predict the answer as 35. You would compare your ML model against this baseline to validate if your ML model is better than a ML model that predicts this constant answer.
I'm not sure your preference for running the gas tank down to empty before refilling it is more logical than her preference to keep it topped off.

It sounds like you each have your preferences, and the tension comes from one (or both?) of you assume that your emotional preference is somehow objectively or factually correct.

Maybe if you indulge her on the pantry situation to assist in her happiness, she can indulge some preference of yours that's particularly important to you?
> "I for one feel stereotyped and vilified (and I also feel at risk of being criticized for even admitting my own feelings)."

If I can ask you a question without you feeling criticised... why do you think you've taken this article personally?

It's interesting to me as I don't see anything remotely controversial in the article. It becomes an article for a news site not because it's a novel occurrence, but because it's commonplace and frequently overlooked. Even if it's not an issue in your relationship, can you accept that it happens in other relationships?
You're right. It's critical not to let the troops catch a whiff of their individual importance or you'll have to start paying them closer to their actual value to you... and that's bad for profits.
It's not that bad.

- Some of those are not in-tree, like LTTng and SystemTap.

- Tracepoints, kprobes, events, and uprobes are all event libraries used by perf or ftrace, just like DTrace had multiple providers (fbt, pid, etc).

The real fragmentation is perf and ftrace, since both are in-tree front ends. That's not too bad, and they both have different strengths.

eBPF is weird in that it's neither an event library or a front end. It's programmatic capabilities. We're mostly using an out of tree project, bcc, to run it.

How Much YouTube Celebs Charge to Advertise Your Product?
I force myself to read Breitbart now and then, to understand what people with different views are thinking. What you've said is accurate. At the same time, Bannon displays intelligence and straight talk at times. For example, when tensions with NK started to heat up, he called Trump's "fire and fury" threat toothless because any opening of hostilities with NK sees 4 million+ residents of Seoul die within 48 hours. He was "telling it like it is", and he was fired from the White House immediately after. Now I don't agree with most of what he says but I can see how his followers admire his plainspokenness.
The advantage of using SRV records with consul, is that any load-balancer supporting SRV can replace any loadbalancer already in place, almost seamlessly :)
This applies to any Service Registry (I tested the feature with both Kubernetes and Consul)

So yes, this feature was missing in HAProxy and we catched up because our community and some customers asked for it. So they can now use the power of HAProxy with their current consul deployments.
He's stated previously (can't remember where) that building all that is someone else's problem (opportunity).
This one is funny. While cryptocurrency gets most of the brickbats around here on HN, I think Deep Learning is also in the same boat.

Executives want to apply Deep Learning to everything and anything they can get their hands on. The results most of the time are underwhelming and could be had with a much simpler set of tools. Just wondering how long before Deep Learning goes into trough of disillusionment.
It is not surprising that women have trouble in Silicon Valley given your, sadly I think not too uncommon attitude towards sex.

Most people don't think the ultimate human existence is being the leader of a sex cult. The same sort of culturally taught moral signaling that makes professing sex immoral so popular (even though it really isn't all that popular these days) exists in the opposite moral signaling you're exercising. Boasting about how all men are constant sexual fiends is a good way to let everyone around you know what a "real man" you are, but almost everyone grows out of that 15-year-olds in a locker room cliché, and contrary to what you might think, not just because of societal shame.

Saying every man who chooses to start a family instead of pursuing casual sex all his life is actually just putting on an act would offend a lot of people who made that choice.

There is a spectrum, of course and nonmonogamy and promiscuity are part of the human experience, but that they exist doesn't prove that this is all anybody wants. Some people are alcoholics, it does not follow that so is everyone who wants a drink.
As well as deep learning and AI.
> His presentation style usually seems to be pretty raw, in a good way.

Completely agreed that it's raw in a good way -- you can tell he really has technical detail down too, I noticed one of the times when a slide left too early he still knew the numbers that had been on it. Also he has an understated sense of humor ("mountain").

I also sometimes got the sense he genuinely was in awe at what he was seeing. Like it still took him by surprise. It was interesting to watch.

> It's not as crisp/polished as Jobs' presentations were

All this said, I wish there were a Jobs-like figure to sell SpaceX. I'm sure there are people who'd disagree with me on this, but I can only imagine how popular/well-known SpaceX would be if they had someone who could pitch to the general public. SpaceX keynotes could be tune-in television with the right person, but it'd have to be someone really tied to the company, I don't think you could hire someone to do this. It'd have to be authentic.
That has nothing to do with what I said.Totally different analogy.
I do agree on this statement!!!
I personally validated HAProxy SRV records with both Kubernetes and Consul and I was positively supersized of how simple is consul. (Well, it does not cover all the stuff kubernetes does, you may need nomad for this purpose).
"There is a risk" isn't really a fair standard. What moral, digestible in a children's show (or any form to any audience, really) doesn't have a risk of being applied in a way that isn't beneficial? I haven't watched the show, but it strikes me from the descriptions here that prudence is very much a value it would appreciate.
Only after his fire had gone out, his spirit had been broken, and he'd been psychologically disintegrated back to docility.
The reverse proxy is configured to route requests to any container that is currently running. For example, if I have a Jenkins container, as long as it is running, the reverse proxy will send requests to it. In this particular case, I need to proxy a remote host. In order to do that, I have a container running with the appropriate labels, the proxy sees the container running, and it proxies requests to the remote host.
> "First, are the women depicted in this comic stay at home moms?"

Did you even read the comic? In the first line...

What do you think that tells you about their working background? Do they sound like stay at home mums?
Linux considers syscall API stable and there's a pretty hard rule of not breaking user space.
Very interesting chart.
I think the issue here is that Equifax's systems are in a bad way. They need a new CEO but if they left the current one in the cold, they'd have a hard time finding a new CEO who'd be willing to bear ultimate responsibility for a system they had 0 influence in building. I believe that's the deal with golden parachutes - in the eyes of corporations, there are very few qualified CEO candidates and these candidates dictate terms - the first of which is a golden parachute.
Ansible is strange like that, lots of stuff only works if you don't touch it after you get it working, for a period of time the 'apt' module was broken so I had to do similar.

It's fantastic software but it can be a bit fickle.
The DPRK nuclear program pre-dates American regime change in Iraq and Libya by decades. Their pursuit of nuclear weapons, while destablising in the region and for the world, is not tied to post-9/11 American foreign policy - there was plenty of motivation to develop nuclear weapons before that.
Yes, if more than half of Spain voted yes, it would be a yes. Happens all the time with presidents, every 4 years, right?
An update from Elon on the pricing[1]:

> Fly to most places on Earth in under 30 mins and anywhere in under 60. Cost per seat should be about the same as full fare economy in an aircraft. Forgot to mention that.

If you think putting it a little out to sea would kill NIMBY objections .... still, we can but dream.

I'm not entirely sure how serious SpaceX are about their E2E idea anyway, I took it as more of a "hey, isn't this neat? totally physically possible and practical too." I imagine it would take a long time to scale up to that point though, probably decades(?) after the Moon/Mars.
Unfortunately, this is not possible!
The DNS in HAProxy relies on the internal task scheduler which is itself event-driven.
I'd dearly love to see something based on the Culture books - though I appreciate that stories about atheistic, space faring, hedonistic, drug taking communists who are more or less kept as pets by god-like AIs might make the pitch a bit tricky to anyone other than the BBC...
How a Hacker Can Break into Your Smartphone
Interesting. I must confess, I didn't realize there was a way to make syscalls directly from C without resorting to inline assembly.
It seems like, in your scenario, the man is doing the emotional labor.
Just like everybody else I'm really blown away by what SpaceX does, but at the same time I think the question begs to be asked: Has humanity already given up on earth as a home? Is the future really about planets as disposable habitats?

But the overall story is one of Yahweh's love and compassion for his people in a world where everything is falling apart around them

Sucks to be Job's family though. I guess God winning his bet was more important than this love and compassion in that case.

But in my experience Jews aren't any more violent than Christians

I'm pretty sure any religious group can find something in their teachings to justify any possible position from complete non-violence to outright aggression.
1. You'd be surprised at how vocal faculty committees can be about opposing raising tuition. Either because they care about their students and their futures, or more mercenarily, because it means supporting graduate students eats up more of their grant funding when tuition goes up.

2. We've already lowered faculty salaries - why do you think so much is done now by adjuncts that are pretty universally regarded as underpaid?

3. Student amenities have been shown not actually to be all that significant a contributor to rising costs, especially compared to the slashed state and federal budgets to support universities.

Many universities have already done a great deal to lower costs - putting aside needed infrastructure investments, not replacing both staff and faculty when they retire, the aforementioned reliance on adjuncts, and in some cases cutting or merging whole departments.
Her instructions are clearly clear enough to her husband, who makes one call to a cleaning service before Mother's day.
I had to chuckle.

On the one hand, this comment is brilliant, because it's a concise piece of esoteric information. High signal-to-noise! And even though I won't remember the details, I suspect that next time I have a use for this information, I'll remember enough to google it.

On the other hand, if vi or emacs is the editor you want to use, you're almost certainly not the person who chooses their editor based on trying to figure out the least painful editor that'll work over SSH and will now be relieved to use micro (rather than one of those annoying options that's already there).

Though maybe that was the joke. In which case, ya got me. Zing!

You don't need to reach orbital speed, only ballistic trajectory. So i guess fuel consumption is less than low earth orbit trips.
> Similarly, there's a story where one of the trains gets off the tracks in order to smell flowers, or play, or something of that sort. The cure is to hide people in the field, who jump out and scare him back onto the track.

There is, but it's nothing to do with The Railway Series (Thomas the Tank Engine doesn't appear in the first book) and is by a different author - you're thinking of Tootle.
