I was pretty excited about AWX, we had finally deployed a few things to provide some of the functionality (Rundeck and some custom runners, also tried but decided against StackStorm since it has no role based task limits in the non-enterprise version).

I gave Jeff's (author of this piece) Ansible role a try and had an AWX system up and running quickly. He's making some really nice Ansible roles.

But I had no luck with AWX. I think if you are using entirely platforms that are supported directly by AWX (OpenStack/AWS/Azure), you might be fine. We run 80% of our stack on Ganeti, and have a custom inventory script that AWX seems entirely unable to use. Even distiling that dynamic inventory down into a static inventory isn't working in my testing because it wants our Vault password to load the inventory, and the inventory task doesn't allow for associating vault credentials. Nor does it seem to provide the boto credentials needed by our dynamic inventory script, even though it has a spot for providing AWS credentials.

I want to try it one more time to see if I can find a combination of static inventory that doesn't need the Vault.

But at the moment, the Rundeck weirdness with our inventory is less than the AWX weirdness, so that is our solution. I'm sure I'm just not getting something about AWX, but I've spent a day with the docs and made no real progress.

It's awesome to have available as an option. I wanted to get Tower but could never secure the funding for it, largely because it was a big unknown.
If non-technical founders can't afford to pay for their MVP or offer equity for it (which has no value anyway), then they have no business trying to found a company. Not everyone can be an entreprenur, and that's OK.
I'm sorry but why on earth would you accept a vague almost anecdotal correlation, while rejecting scientifically conducted nutrition studies?

I'll grant you that nutritional science is hard, but surely holding studies to a lower standard isn't a logical solution?
Customers are often your adversaries. In fact, it's almost entirely the case - They're looking to extract concessions, get cheaper goods and services, etc. The customer has incentive to bleed as much as they can from the seller, and the seller also has incentive to bleed as much as they can from the customer. Cooperation despite adversarial relationship is the great benefit of capitalism, but doesn't mean you can ignore the adversity.

There's also a very different mode to their relationships. Symantec is selling to the Russian government - bureaucracies, and it's selling black boxes. Russia is trying to leverage it, to give it advantage in a different mode - Intelligence. Both Symantec and the Russian intelligence agencies are in the infosec business. It's not that uncommon for businesses to do business despite competing in some areas - Samsung was a core iPhone supplier despite also making phones.
And that's supposed to make me want to get this thing?
The fragmentation is typically from a 1500 byte packet to a slightly smaller value, so you end up with one 1400 byte packet and one 100 byte packet.

The fragmentation happens after your computer has packetised the data.

I learned growing up in Japan in the 90's that the Ainu are indigenous people of Hokkaido, the northernmost island in Japan. Okinawa and Hokkaido weren't really Japanese until recently. I think I remember learning that Hokkaido was like Australia, where the mainland sent Japanese prisoners/criminals to or something.
I agree that road users should pay for the roads but fuel tax isn't the right way to do it.

First, bicyclists make use of the roads so there should be a congestion free.

Second, diesel taxes are aimed at trucks but also ensnare diesel cars which don't wear the road more than an equivalent passenger car so we need a vehicle specific paradigm. This is probably the appropriate way to price in scarcity - most motorcycles consume more fuel than most hybrids but motorcycles should wear the road less.
Please specifically seek out a psychologist who can give you a better evaluation than a therapist could.
I built the foundation of this system while at Spotify. While it's true that we looked at a lot of different signal, at the point when I left (early 2015), it was all based on collaborative filtering.

The reason collaborative filtering works so much better than anything else is that given enough data, it will already encompass everything else. If there are reasons why certain users prefer certain sounds, or certain lyrics, those patterns will emerge in the listening data.

The main reason to use any non-CF method is mainly for new content that Spotify doesn't have much listening data for.

I'm no longer at Spotify, but let me know if you have any questions
There is a third freely available ASCII character APL in addition to K and J.

I have not seen it mentioned on HN before.

Have I missed the discussion?

It is called ELI.

I find it very sad that bloggers and commenters who are presumably employed as software engineers are continuing to discount the value of these languages simply because someone finds them incomprehensible. Failure of someone to comprehend is not the fault of the language. Persons having no prior knowledge of programming do not make complaints about APL versus more verbose languages. It is all the same to them, all incomprehensible in the beginning. To learn, work is required. And generally, more volume means more to learn. More work.
My guess is that it is going to be an all-in-one of what is currently GearVR. Can't remember the name of the app, but there's a Video application where you can watch 360 videos (there are also apps that have 360 videos from Disney and the like) and 2D videos in a virtual theater (the theater is a skin though, so can watch in other locations as well). I've also watched the Youtube 360 videos you mention I believe within an app on the device, or maybe it was via browser. Sorry, been a while since I used the thing (neat device, but not enough to maintain interest).

Personal experience: the video always looked grainy on my S7 Edge + GearVR headset. I'm kind of waiting for the next iteration of headsets of which I kind of think we're there with Samsung's Oddyssey or whatever (though really wanted LG to release that flip-visor headset they demoed as that'd be great for shifting between VR and real world without constantly taking off and putting on).

This would be so useful to me.

I always spend WAY too long picking out hotel rooms when I travel because it's so hard to compare hotels. The prices you see in search results are always for the cheapest room which I typically never want. And there's no way to see prices or sort by room size or amenities.
We're treating psychological problem like pathological ones. Mental health is not a pathological problem necessarily, but rather an physiological responsive one. As such giving medications as to "treat mental health" is the wrong perspective, and more proper perspective would one were certain physiological responses to certain environmental conditions are deemed as negative. As such to an extent the physiological responses and the interpretation of whether those responses are good or bad are dependent on social perspectives.
If one feels anger and is not mindful or "present", one is likely to act angrily.

If instead one feels anger and is mindful about it, one acknowledges the anger but keeps room to decide how to act. This seems to me an improvement.

(As I mentioned above, you go from "I'm angry!" to "I notice there is anger present" and that non-identification leaves room to decide how to act. Sure, this is harder with emotions that go on a long time, e.g. being 'OK" with the presence of anxiety.)

"Absolute focus" and true constant mindfulness is a thing for advanced meditators that you won't get from 20 minutes a day.
Which is really the same thing, if you think about it.
>It has plenty of housing, low cost of living, major airports, universities, a large population, and a decent rapid transit that could be expanded given a catalyst like Amazon.

I live in Atlanta and all of these things are true except that last one. MARTA has neither the coverage or the competence to qualify as 'decent'. Even if they plopped the HQ right on top of Five Points (as is being proposed), most employees are still gonna drive, and encounter that world-class ATL rush hour traffic.

That said, Atlanta is still definitely in play, and our department of economic development (which I used to work for) is one of the most effective in the country. They brought Hollywood to Atlanta already, Amazon shouldn't be that much harder. Culturally, I expect it would encounter a mixed reception.
People: PLEASE STOP recommending depressed people to take psychedelics. There is no such thing as "psychedelic therapy." Psychedelics can easily make people with mental health issues MUCH WORSE. Nobody needs a full blown existential crisis on top of major depression.

I get it if you like the idea of doing psychedelics, but they are mind-altering in significant and poorly understood ways, and can easily cause others harm - even if you feel they've done good for you.
I can only believe you when you say you cured yourself, but I just want to point out for others that this sometimes can be symptoms of hypomania (bipolar II).

As an example, consider the following author’s self-cure for his bipolar II:

https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelellsberg/2011/07/18/how-...

Sounds pretty easy and awesome, right?

Then, read his follow-up several years later:

http://www.ellsberg.com/bipolar-ii-follow-up

In particular, notice the change in tone of his writing. Very different people speaking in each of the articles.

I want to point this out because mood cycles can sometimes last several years, and bipolar sufferers are at a higher risk of suicide. It’s not stuff that I would self-diagnose or self-treat.
> This is an almost absurd criticism. [...] A reasonable amount of exercise is good for pretty much everyone.

"Ok, if you say so" and "of course". But the general advice to do some exercises and the advice to exercise "to counter depression" are two completely different things.

I'm trying to be as neutral as possible here: If a friend of yours needs help, please don't tell them that they "shouldn't need a therapist to figure [out a way out]". Psychology ain't an exact science even though most "science journalism" wants you make to believe that. So, whatever "wisdom" one picks up, treat it with a grain^Wbag of salt.

Please consider not doing that.
Sometimes you need a therapist and/or meds to figure out that you need to (or even can) figure it out, and it's possible to overdo just about anything, certainly including exercise and sleep. Depression puts you at the bottom of a well, and by definition not thinking clearly. You're dangerously close to telling people to just deal with it on their own, which is harmful and cold.

Spotify re-runs the latent vector models regularly and re-indexes them into Annoy indexes. There is no need to do that in real time, you can be a few weeks delayed and it's usually fine. New music doesn't have much data and need different methods anyway.
I believe there's still concerns around long-term usage, like the eyes/brain mismatch to focusing on something that's 'virtually' a few meters away, but in reality is in front of your face, which can cause nausea.

I prefer them for exactly this reason - I’ve learned that I actually prefer less novelty in my playlists than I previously assumed. Spotify seems to understand this, and incrementally alters my playlists, moving through tracks and doing a good job of removing tracks that I skip continuously. I’ve noticed these playlists actually do a good job at discovering music for me within each genre
You'd expect the top 10% of households' accumulated wealth over many generations to be a few decades of average annual income, especially if they're large households.

US GDP per capita is around $50k and households in the top income decile all have household wealth in excess of a million dollars

10kgs of gold is about $40k, so is entirely consistent with Khivan GDP per capita being in the $500-$2000 range

I didn't read the criticism that way; seemed like a warning against "one size fits all" thinking when dealing with a complex system like a human brain.

Maybe you are both right!
Given sufficient effort, I'm sure an AI out to destroy us could figure out a way to do it without killing us. It very likely even has the advantage of longevity.

Harking back to Asimov, and thinking about the way Spacers changed, as they became more and more reliant on robots, it could very well mother us to extinction.
Does your work normally involve very high levels of physical pain that would make any normal human scream at the top of their lungs?
Maybe if the headsets became "ultra-comfortable", but these are nowhere near that. I have some much better than average headphones, that are near top of the line for comfort. They still are too much after a few hours.
And that's where therapy supports the physical care aspect: It can provide you with the tools to deal with these traps. It can provide you with the tools to identify these traps long before your mirror tells you.

Mere therapy isn't everything, but neither is only taking care of the non-brain parts of your body.
That seems like old-fashioned self-restraint. One frustration of this stuff is the difficulty in pinning down exactly what the claims are.
> In fact, I would argue that rarely is depression caused by a clear reason which has a direct path to resolution.

I'm gonna have to disagree pretty strongly with that assertion without any supporting evidence.

I managed to confirm that my perceived changes in connection quality were ACTUAL changes in connection quality. I never took the time to do anything better with it though, but it does show that My provider seems to have done SOMETHING, as the speed floor has moved up, and significant events (sometimes as slow as dialup) became significantly rarer. It's also fun because it allows you to get a rough idea of how over provisioned the line is, as you can see day/night cycles.

My cable modem provides a status page with info about signal to noise ratio and other stats. I planned on adding more details to the script by scrapping from that page, but it requires a login first and I've never taken the time to learn how to manage that kind of state, as I do most scripty/webby things with raw requests from python's urllib.request module, like a plebian.
We had to build some explicit filters for this at Spotify. For instance we blacklisted Christmas music from being part of the listening data – until them people would get a ton of Christmas music recommendations every January. But to your point, there's a long tail of other contextual things.

Burning to death only hurts briefly, when the nerves have had enough damage you can't feel. Adrenaline helps block pain, as well. Besides, self-immolation is not exclusive to those who have practiced mindfulness.

Ever had a severe accident, like a motorcycle accident, or been ran over by a car? The pain comes after, not in the moment when the trauma occurs.
> For large transfers

The implicit assumption is that a fragmented packet will be slightly more than MTU. So for a large transfer - say N packets, of packet size MTU + 1 - you will see N "first fragments" fragmented to the size of MTU, and another N last fragments of size 1. (actually IP header + 1)

In other words 50% of the packets flowing will have size of 1 which is super bad use of router switching resources.

That doesn't make any sense. There are many small US flagged and crewed vessels around the southeast mainland coast. For example, the Gulf oil industry has idle work boats available. Anyone willing to pay the charter fees can hire them today and immediately start moving cargo.
Not sure for gblain, but for me I actually broke out in pimples when eating excessive wheat/bread. Under a certain limit, I just felt bad.

However, I'm not sure if it's just gluten or glyphosate toxicity [1] (being concentrated in GMO wheat as that includes "roundup ready wheat" which, clearly gets more roundup on it).

Sure, let me quote Harvard[1]:

"It's often said that depression results from a chemical imbalance, but that figure of speech doesn't capture how complex the disease is. Research suggests that depression doesn't spring from simply having too much or too little of certain brain chemicals. Rather, there are many possible causes of depression, including faulty mood regulation by the brain, genetic vulnerability, stressful life events, medications, and medical problems. It's believed that several of these forces interact to bring on depression."

It IS a useful exercise to rope that in as automation. Just because a human is playing the part of the levers and pullies or some black box doesn't mean the underlying control system isn't interesting or worth examining in the context of automation.

There is an Arabic story about Hatim al-Tai’s brother. Hatim al-Tai was a great man, maybe the most generous person that has ever lived. He was a legend even when he was alive.

One day people saw his brother peeing in the holy Well of Zamzam. This is the most sacred water in Islam. They asked him why he was doing such a thing. “My brother is famous and will be remembered forever in the history,” he said. “I can never be as wise or as generous as him, so this is how I make sure I will be remembered forever.”

A killer 'app'. Some experience that can only be delivered on VR that is totally compelling to mainstream consumers. That could drive the entire segment, I think.

I don't think its games. At least, it's not obvious how to turn existing kinds of games into VR experiences, and make them mind blowing. In my experience, VR games are not currently very good games, and are relatively lacklustre as tourist experiences.

So what? I wish I knew. But I just don't think there is a compelling reason for most people, even most passionate gamers, at the moment. Which, as a fan, pains me to say.
