I keep repeating this and just recently a friend sending large mailouts called me to confirm: you do not need Sendgrid or Mailchimp or anything else! IF you are truly not sending spam, all you need is $5/month DigitalOcean's 512MB server with not previously blacklisted IP. That's it!

Paying for Mailchimp a small fortune is like paying for bottled water where all you need is $15/year Brita filter and just drink tap water.

Nowadays all major email providers are really good at catching spam. If you are NOT spamming then you are good to go; the key is to start small and grow from there. Do not switch overnight and send 10,000 genuine emails letting your audience know your terms of service have changed; since they don't know your IP, they will consider spam. But if you are getting your newly subscribed audience into getting emails (confirm double opt-in) from your new IP, it will take you 2 months and approx +10% daily raise in sendout to get to $1MM emails per week from your OWN IP at $5/month rate and delivery rate will be similar to those big guys that claim they have the best delivery rate (noone can guarantee you that)! Tested and confirmed!

VMWare's k8s play is Pivotal Container Services, or PKS (blame Google). It's a three-way joint project between Pivotal, Google and VMWare.

I've said before and I'll say again: Red Hat, Microsoft and Google (and Pivotal and VMWare) are going to wind up making more money from Docker than Docker Inc does. Kubernetes has swept the field at the container-orchestrator level, the rest is a fight for the upper part of the stack.

Disclosure: I work for Pivotal, though not on PKS.

For me it feels like you want to tweak Windows to be a clone of your OSX setup. Hint: it will never happen, same way you cant ever make OSX really like Windows. For example I could never find a good replacement for Paint.NET on OSX.

I dunno why people say that one or the other is superior for work (except if you work with some special software that exists only for one OS). Both of them are equally good, since everything is moving to the cloud, for most non-specialized tasks you need one app - a browser. If you look at other fields like programming, graphics work, 3D,.. they are the same again (except for special cases like C# or Swift development).

And things like iStatMenus is not something that is used for work, its a widget that you like. Perhaps you simply like the look and feel of OSX more?
A USB-C port will just barely power a 4K display at 60hz on its own. There's no way to get two 4k displays, USB, and power delivery without the bandwidth of Thunderbolt 3
My expectation is that C-series jets for the US market would be produced in the US, planes for Europe are probably better produced in Canada to make use of the Canada/EU FTA.

From the article: "a second assembly line for the 100- to 150-seat plane will be set up at Airbus's facility in Mobile, Ala., so the plane can be sold in the United States"

By the way, I'm convinced that a big reason that small car manufacturing has moved to Mexico is the list of free trade agreements they have.
That's a great quote I've never read before.
I'm curious - do you work for a debt collector? I ask because I've been sent to collections multiple times over medical bills, and every single time it has taken hours of effort to eventually reveal that all of the documentation given to the debt collector was erroneous. Mentally, I treat it as spam because I've learned that it's going to end up being someone else's mistake that the debt collector didn't look at carefully.

I would love to understand better how to deal with it - and if there's a fellow HN user who understand the debt collector business, I would like to talk to them :)
This reminds me of Google's efforts to reduce harmful mosquitos in Fresno, CA by introducing millions of sterile mosquitos (http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/07/21/538470321/...). I visited Fresno last month, and Fresnonians seem generally very annoyed at the insane amount of Google mosquitos in the city now but remain hopeful that this will be better for them in the long-haul.
Authoritarian violence is absolutely an ideology - every group that's ever employed it has been a group with a political utopia. And every group that's articulated a political utopia has employed violence. Arguing that they're separate requires the addition of another dimension that doesn't add information. Murderous communism and murderous fascism are both murderous and utopistic, adding the color commentary of left wing / right wing ideals doesn't improve the model.

>BDS usually refers to the mostly left wing “Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions” (against Israel) movement, which has nothing to do with the reactionary right.

I could have phrased that better, I intended to use BDS as an example of the activism spilling out of campuses.

Let's say you are creating Git like system so you will need some data at specific time right?
1: so what? I use this for my blog (cryptologie.net) and this has never been a problem. Search engines handle that quite well.

2: no. The URL is not wrong. Rather it won’t describe the content perfectly anymore. If this is an issue you can attribute a new ID to your page.

3: that’s why you have url shorteners. But what’s wrong with a long url? And how does it complicates sharing it? To share you copy/paste the url. Nothing changed. And now the url describes the content! (That’s the reason we do it.)

4: that’s a good thing!

So yeah. I’ll keep doing this for my blog and I hope websites like SO keep doing that as well
Most SoCs have some kind of dedicated image processor these days as well as a GPU, even ARM's got in on the game with their own hardware designs. Unfortunately they tend to be pretty proprietary so not much good if you want to do your own image processing. As far as I can tell, the image processors traditionally have a more DSP-like architecture (small local buffers, instruction set optimised for efficient data transfer and processing, etc), but since it's proprietary it's hard to tell. Supposedly they're meant to be more power efficient than the alternatives.

(Which isn't surprising; GPUs are really designed for 3D rendering and they're definitely overkill for simpler tasks. The general assumption is that you're fetching small locally-contiguous groups of pixels from main RAM, doing texture mapping and computations on them, then conditionally blitting the result to other locally-contiguous areas of RAM. Most of the infrastructure used for this is going to waste if you're just using it to do 2D image processing.)

Has anyone has a weird issue where a recipient gets emails delayed by up to 45 minutes via SES, but sending via Google is received immediately?

They aren't ending up in a spam folder, just delayed.

Note that the email address domain is the same between these two.
Pivotal and Google built Kubo (recently renamed to the less memorable Cloudfoundry Container Runtime[0]) to make the deployment/management/upgrade thing easier. It's built on top of BOSH, which has a relatively long track record in managing stateful, long-lived, distributed systems on top of IaaSes.

Disclosure: I work for Pivotal.

I figured that Swissair was that lighthouse customer. They've had very positive feedback for the C-series, which is quite impressive for a brand new model. Honestly I doubt Delta would've even considered the C-series if they were to be the first major customer.
Does Zig have a compile to C option? This would open it up to a massive embedded world.
Do you think James Damore is sexist?

I'd love to know just how highly correlated opinions are on racism and sexism. I suspect in the United States people are comparatively more likely to believe things are racist, and in continental Europe people are comparatively more likely to believe things are sexist, but I don't have the data.
Lennart Poettering has an interesting tool, casync , which overlaps with zsync. Claims to be a better solution for image syncing. Reasons given here: http://0pointer.net/blog/casync-a-tool-for-distributing-file...
It's a pretty standard classical music trick to switch from minor key to major (or vice-versa), just for variation purposes, and repeat the theme in the major key. So this is what this sounds like to me, like Beethoven got a hold of REM.
It kind of sounds like they're running into some limitations of GHC: it tends to take a long time to compile stuff, and it tends to generate some very big binaries. For most applications, those aren't major problems but in their use case (hundreds of thousands of lines of code deployed to many servers) it is an issue so they're working around it. That allows them to keep working in the language they prefer and are productive in, which is great.

Improving GHC compile times and reducing the binary size would be better, but presumably a lot of work has already gone into those problems and if it were easy someone would have done it by now. As for myself, I really like using Haskell and I'm glad whenever I hear about it being used in industry.
I think one of the takeaways here is that "the virtual world" and "the real world" are not as separate as many people seem to think. I used this fact to good effect to escape homelessness. But, like anything, it can be used for either good or ill.

We should perhaps be more mindful of that then we seem to be, on the whole. It is a central element of a lot of complaints about things like Facebook. What happens online has real world consequences, contrary to what a lot of people would like to assert when they are being assholes somewhere on the internet.
I hate to say it, but it appears they have no idea where they’re going.

They talk about Etsy, they talk about amazon, they talk about aliexpress - and then they say they want to focus more on new goods. From where I come from moving out of the niche you dominate and increasing your competing surface area (retail of new goods is, uh, crowded) is an asinine move.

As to “millennials haven’t even heard of eBay” - what utter tosh. I and many, many others I know have used eBay since our teens, and I’m now in my 30’s. I’ve just furnished an entire house, from floors to fittings to fridge to furniture through eBay.

Either way, if they honestly think they’ll succeed by trying to compete with amazon and Ali on their own turf, they’re deluded, and signing up for an express train to insolvency depot, where buyers loiter offering shady deferred stock deals for sick companies to harvest for corporate organs.

They’d do far more for their brand by making the feedback system actually useful again.

Oh, and their API is a world of hatefulness. Built an end to end integration for an ecommerce platform - stuff of nightmares. 2000+ page PDF API guide. Zero consistency in communications. Count from zero, count from one, can’t count here. Single shared sandbox for the universe. No support. Spontaneous deprecation. Never again.
I don't know why anyone would accuse you of trolling, but you are certainly tone deaf if you can't hear the difference. I could be wrong, but I'm guessing that music isn't a big part of your life and wasn't really a part of your childhood.

As a musician, the difference is glaring, but my ear (or brain, to be more accurate) has been trained by 2 decades of playing and composing music.

A shrewd move by Airbus. It's likely they could have gotten the EU to enact a large tariff against the CSeries in Europe too, but instead they're getting a 737 MAX 7 competitor for free and getting to avoid political fallout in the process.
I used this pattern when you had multiple files extending the same global state. For example when lazy loading based on the page you're on.

It can definitely be overused, which is probably why it's an anti pattern, but it had it's uses before webpack.
They probably feel like they didn't solicit that communication.
>Most cities play up their coast line

Eh, I disagree. You don't see Houston or Tokyo trying to upsell on their coast-line. I think tourist cities play it up, but major cities that exist where they are because of their ports don't push tourists towards it because bustling ports are almost by definition disgusting.

The only exception I can think of is San Francisco, but that's by nature of its unique peninsula geography. You can just go to the west side to find decent beaches. The Port of San Francisco (east side) is still gross. (to me... there is a lot of tourists piers there I guess)

It was one of them. However, given the other writing/talks Facebook has put out about their usage of Haskell and Haxl, Go is probably not a good fit for their use case due to language expressivity concerns (not declarative enough, not enough type safety, not syntactically flexible enough for writing DSLs).
When even a small percentage of the rich oppose an extermination program for the bottom 90%, it turns a plan for tidy mass murder into chaotic war with dangerous risks to even the richest. That's why I don't put much weight on the "rich exterminate the unneeded poor" scenario, as outlined in Peter Frase's "B" scenario from Four Futures.
Knowledge of the ocean, the bottom, and what is in it, is very different from knowledge of commercial fish populations. Records of catch go way back and the methods for inferring population are good enough. There is also an archaeological record of what coastal people ate thousands of years ago and these provide evidence of changes in fish populations over hundreds of years.

It "solves" it by not doing any of the things that you'd expect a modern language's compiler to do.

In my opinion the time wasted debugging Go issues that could have been statically prevented is better spent waiting for a slightly longer compile cycle to finish.
That's a silly objection. The 'good' they're attempting to do is preventing terrorism by sifting through the sea of available information on social media. When terrorism occurs in developed countries, the public's anger and fear leads to questions like 'why didn't you see this coming?' And so politicians naturally enough say they'll watch more closely for the signs of such activity.

Again, I am not endorsing this, but espionage and counter-espionage has the same arms-race characteristics as other spheres of military and indeed much commercial activity. What's your alternative proposal? I don't have a good one myself. Also, what do you think will happen to a politician that says 'this sort of thing can't be prevented,' given the fact that many pundits and media outlets are happy to promote the notion of a security state to the general public, and the general public is poorly equipped to evaluate their claims?

I'm absolutely not trying to dismiss your argument, but I wish you'd put more effort into fleshing it out. We have centuries of experience for the proposition that the public is easily stampeded into fortress-building and suspicion, and overcoming that requires more than a generalized wish people to just Do The Right Thing, as if that were easily identifiable.
I'll be interested in how they go too; productionising k8s is surprisingly tricky and Red Hat have made a heavy investment to do so.

I have skin in this game as well, as my other comments on this post demonstrate. We (Pivotal & Google) kinda skipped the hard bits of keeping up with k8s by packaging it as a BOSH release, so we'll always be up to date. That's actually one of the project goals: parity with vanilla k8s, because it is vanilla k8s, operated by a lower-level system.
> A company like Boeing that gets massive government contracts and depends on free trade shouldn’t be shitting on free trade.

Opposed to all the other airliner manufacturers that don't get government contracts? From the article:

> The Quebec government invested $1.25 billion in exchange for a 49.5 per cent stake in the CSeries last year. The federal government also recently provided a $344-million loan to Bombardier, which struggled to win orders.

And of course Airbus is partially owned by France, Germany and others. Everyone in this story has deep government ties.

When blue whale blubber became scarce we .... switched to a new fuel. So that's actually confirmation of my point.
Output results would be the same - that's concerned with program correctness, regardless of whether it's written in a function, object-oriented, or procedural paradigm.

It should instead be compared with how long it took to engineer and build the system or program in a particular paradigm and the qualitative engineering aspects of a particular platform. FP may be amazing for certain areas, but a difficulty in basing a large-scale project or business on it would be hampered by the small supply of developers who can comfortably program in it.

Comac is a promising competitor, too, and are explicitly targeting the bread-and-butter size classes of Airbus/Boeing.
Compound interest is a powerful thing, especially if you sock away at least 10% of your income into index funds with every pay check.
> Should there not be an intense focus on de-proliferation, de-escalation of conflicts because of this?

Sure, nuclear disarmament wouldn't hurt, but like you said: atomic bombs have only been used against people twice. There's no evidence that their use against people is likely to substantially increase over the next few years, so it's not something that is worth worrying about. Just like terrorism.

EDIT: And certainly it is not worth using the risk of atomic bombs as an excuse to invade the privacy and erode the freedoms of millions of people.
I’ve got a fairly modern (2008 or so), low-end (Beko) dishwasher that came with my house; it cleans perfectly. My main complaint would be that it’s a bit noisy, but it works fine, basically. The current version costs about 250 euro. A higher-end one that I had when I was renting also worked fine. You may just have been unlucky with the particular model; modern dishwashers aren’t all bad.

I remember when eBay was though of as the ability to sift through a million attics or garages to but all the things that someone else thought was barely worth the effort to carry down for curbside trash pickup. Now it has a very different feel, and it is somewhat taken over by new low dollar junk. Thankfully the auctions are still there, and I can still buy old synths that few people want, used parts for my motorcycles, or 30 year old Pentax lenses.

I've had far less problems with eBay than I have with Amazon. I mostly buy used items on actual auctions. Occasionally a buy it now used item, but rarely new stuff. Perhaps its because I'm a long time user of eBay (1997 IIRC) that I've internalized a consistent process that works. Amazon was great when Amazon was the only seller, but when the opened it up to third party sellers and that turned into questionable and counterfeit items, I don't generally go back.

This is an interesting line of thought. The spread of capitalism was fueled by the new technology of the Industrial Revolution. Perhaps the next mode of production will be fueled by this 'Internet/Computer/Robot/AI Revolution'. Maybe the important change is this "trivially scalable output irrespective of capital" property, but no one really seems to know what this will lead to.

As you guessed, my main reason is there aren't standard constructions around SIV modes for ChaCha20Poly1305, although as Brian Smith notes in that thread SIV is a general construction which should be easy to adapt.
