I think companies are realizing that cheap labour and poor regard for safety are not worth dictators that mess around with your equipment, labour pool and exports.

I can't speak from experience, but I imagine a company foreseeing a large demand for a material will gladly pay more for a constant, secure supply rather than pay less for one that could be halted at the drop of a hat.

I once had a conversation with a guy in oil and gas at a party. I'm not sure what his job was but he basically said that in most African countries there is hundreds of millions of dollar of equipment just sitting collecting dust. When a company leaves, the government demands crazy amounts of (bribe) money to export the equipment, to the point where the company just walks away from it and writes it off as a loss.

I can certainly see how that would bring frustrations, especially if you come from a dynamically-typed language (heck, even if you start out in Haskell it'll annoy you). It's worth noting though, that row polymorphism/structural typing also exist in Elm and PureScript, and there are some libraries in Haskell[0] that attempt to solve it using various approaches (admittedly not as nice as first-class support).

I guess my larger problem is that he uses it as an argument static types, whereas it's a solved problem in several existing type systems that has implemented row polymorphism.

The transactional email wasn't adding someone to a newsletter. But you can mark 'spam' on any email at all, and some people felt that our anniversary-of-them-signing-up emails or "you've had a problem being billed" emails were spam, so they hit the button. idk man! People are crazy.

We also had marketing emails through mailchimp, but they were totally separate systems.

Kinda the Wechat model
Candidates that need a coding crutch are less valuable than candidates that don't. Likewise candidates they are so petty or so completely lacking of confidence to perform without their preferred toy are less valuable and less flexible than those candidates who can perform in the actual technologies.

If this is a measure to eliminate candidates who are ultimately less interested in doing the work then so be it.
I'm guessing that you're being downvoted because there's a lot more to consider. I agree that it doesn't take much hardware these days (most single-board computers would work perfectly well) to service <1k simultaneous chat users with efficient server-side software (e.g. UnrealIRCd or ejabberd). However, to make it as reliable as Slack (99.99% monthly uptime is their SLA) for the price they offer it ( https://www.slack.com/plans ) would likely take considerable engineering effort. Sure, you could set it up, toss it in a closet, and it might have 100% uptime for a year...until it doesn't. If chat is business-critical, there are chat companies that have profit motive to deliver a good service. If chat is a nice-to-have at a company (and you e.g. don't have to worry about data retention laws / compliance stuff), maybe it's fine to run it on an rPi / t2.micro (free) AWS instance.

Luckily, there are a ton of great free and paid options out there these days!

I used it for a very long time and loved it. It's perceptually faster/more lightweight than Chrome, I think that's a goal? The adblocker was workable, but nowhere near uBlock. It's close but noticeably slower than Edge.

Firefox on mobile is an utter trainsmash, so I use it there out of necessity (Chrome doesn't have add-ons/adblockers).

I really hate seeing this used in discussion. Just because it's open source does not mean it's immune from criticism. Yes, technically some random HN'er could spend tens of hours writing unit tests and submit a PR, but really this is a task for the library author/maintainer.

Having tests is a measure of quality, and should be cared about if you want people using your library.
There's a false dichotomy between you and the grandparent post. Most people have multiple fields they could potentially be interested in, with a wide range of incomes. And conversely, there are multiple fields that generate high incomes, with a wide range of appeal to you.

In my view, you should take income as a signal, one piece of information. It's the market telling you which fields are valued by others and yet have too few practitioners. It's not the only signal - you should also listen to your feelings about whether you enjoy the work, whether you feel like you're growing, whether you can live in a geographic location you like, whether you can work hours that suit you, whether the results of your work accord with your values, and so on. But you make tradeoffs between these factors: you don't get to have everything. If you decide to follow your passion with a non-lucrative field, that's fine, but realize that the consequence of your decision is that you will make less than someone whose work is valued more highly by the market. And it's up to you to decide whether the things you could buy with that money are worth more than the experience of doing the job.
I believe that looking at bitcoin as a currency suggests it is not worth its current high price. Looking at it as a service for circumventing local currency and legal controls, then current events suggests that demand for these types of services might be high enough to warrant even higher prices.
>Among the very smartest people I know, I count both Trump supporters and anyone-but-Trump supporters.

Not the guy you were replying to, but I can't say the same. I know plenty of smart conservatives, and plenty of smart republicans, (some of whom may have voted for Trump), but of the very few Trump supporters I know, I would definitely not say they're among the smartest I know.

An even fewer number of times have I talked to someone with a MAGA hat, and every single one of those times the hat's owner has said something blatantly ignorant, racist or sexist.

Are there smart trump supporters? I'm sure there are some. Do I feel like I'm losing anything by not associating with them? No, not really.

Oh yes, as if it was an offline app when initiated. Interesting. You should really make this more broadly available and perhaps build service around it. If you can make it security sounded, then I’m sold. Perhaps, it solves the trust issue of JavaScript. For the fun of it, maybe throw in some blocktrain tech or something to enhance that trust model of yours. Would love to see how this gets developed.
> I would take this as a sign of a toxic workplace and avoid it.

You avoided explaining this. If eliminating unnecessary abstraction is offensive to you then I would be more happy to eliminate you from employment consideration at the earliest possible moment so that I don't waste your time.
People like to jump on bandwagon or the other, but the real answer is - it depends.

With Slack, the application itself is probably pretty tough, but for a lot of businesses their infrastructure and connectivity TO Slack (ie internet/WAN) is probably not very resilient. So for a lot of smaller outfits I'd say that Slack is better.

But if you're a large org and your infrastructure is very resilient and diverse, then you're probably better off self-hosting - assuming you can leverage your existing infrastructure to do so.

I don't think it is interesting at all. I have no idea what the subreddit you linked to r/TWHB is? In terms of the censorship, I have seen it first hand on my own comments and it irritated me, so that's why I complain about it. No idea about your whataboutism example, though.
Returned for me when I was looking but took ~30 seconds to do so. They should host their status page on a separate domain and use something like CloudFlare in front of it to help with sudden spikes in traffic. Another alternative is to use Twitter / Facebook as the status page and let them deal with the traffic spikes, or just serve static HTML.

Have you tried recursively applying your own statement about heuristics to your own heuristics?
The only thing you are doing is declaring that your own simplified view of the world is truer than other people's simplified view of the world. At least most people are self conscious enough to know that the simplifications lose information but is somewhat unavoidable due to amount.
Assumes:

- 3 year support

- $1000 monthly hosting fees

- admin costs for non-cloud items

- 10% data accessed each month (for S3 and Glacier)

It would have been much better to have made a simple calculator to adjust how much if any of these items to include. The 10% accessed for S3 and Glacier is excessive and without it I think Glacier could be very competitive with tape.

And also missing from this chart is optical as Glacier is thought to be implemented.

> I fail to see what's good about your approach.

It was pretty clear in that the primary motivation was to eliminate candidates who either lack confidence or competence so that you can spend more quality time with those candidates who care more about the respective skills.

I don't know you, but I am guessing from your highly defensive tone that you likely fall into one of the categories I described in the previous paragraph. If this means of candidate elimination is emotionally offensive you should ask yourself why. When candidates exceed the number of openings somebody must be eliminated.
Select a training set, leaving out one sample for validation. For all features, train a classifier on the training set using that feature. Keep the one that gives the highest discrimination score on the training set. Repeat with more features. Then evaluate the final classifier on the validation sample, which has so far not been seen in any of the steps. The result provides an estimate of the risk on unseen data from the same distribution.

To get the estimation variance down, you can repeat this for all possible choices of validation sample. That means, you start the feature selection process on the new training set over from scratch and obtain another risk estimate. If they kept the features selected earlier, that estimate would be "contaminated" and not independent, but if they correctly start over, the procedure is valid.

Didn't it already have a major correction at 200 and 1000 and a pretty significant one the first time it got around 5000. Yeah, people keep saying that, but it also keeps correcting sporadically. It's not like it's been a smooth ride up from sub $1.
Things similar to the Wright Flyer are still allowed by default in the US in similar geographic areas. The weight limit under FAA regulation part 103 is lower - 254 pounds empty weight, rather than the Wright Flyer's 605 pounds empty weight - but material science has advanced since then, so the restriction isn't that severe.

Ultra-light aircraft is very much regulated under philosophy of "if you aren't endangering others, well, it's your funeral".

We're still fairly early in the project, so for now threading is the only supported way.

We can do better, however, and we're working on ways to leverage the hardware better (for example, if you have no data-dependent choices in your model we can enqueue kernels in parallel on all GPUs in your machine at once from a single python thread, which will perform much better than explicit python multithreading).

Stay on the lookout as we release new experimental APIs to leverage multiple GPUs and multiple machines.
I find the advice given by Cancer Research UK in your first link quite strange.

They seem to accept that if 1000 people aged 60 took aspirin for 20 years there would be:

17.4 fewer deaths from cancer and heart attacks

2.4 more deaths from strokes, ulcers and gastric bleeds

That's a net reduction of 15 deaths per 1000 people. Yet before they recommend that everyone aged 60 take aspirin, they want to know:

a) What age should people start, and stop, taking aspirin?

b) What dose should they take?

c) What are the factors that should rule someone out from taking aspirin, and how should we test for them?

Here are my answers to Cancer Research UK:

a) People whose age would put them within the study cohort. From my reading this is at least people aged 60 for 20 years

b) They should take the dose that was looked at in the study

c) We don't know what factors should rule someone out, but until we do know we should recommend aspirin to everyone who would have been within the cohort study.

There are probably around 10 million people aged 55-65 in the UK. 15 extra deaths per 1000 people means an extra 150,000 deaths over 20 years.

So the cost of waiting for more studies is about 7 extra deaths per day in the UK alone. Cancer Research UK is being too hesitant in its recommendations.

Other than the memory usage - these are problems I've encountered thus far:

- It said it was 'Importing contacts and messages' when I signed in without first prompting me if that was OK.
- Importing contacts and messages failed.
- Manually importing contacts fails.
- Conversations show up, but each message just shows as an error.
- Deleting a conversation doesn't delete it, it just makes it as read.
- Messages marked as read randomly reappear as unread.
- Incorrect unread message count next to conversations list.
- Messages often don't arrive at all, seems at random.
- The application loses it's 'link' to your account seemingly at random upon launch and needs to be relinked.
- Appears to use an outdated version of electron with published security vulnerabilities.
I think Keras is a real deal framework. It provides a higher-level API than most other frameworks, but it has pretty sweet portability of models across frameworks and platforms and most research papers are implementable in Keras without too much trouble.
GCP and AWS do not use 6 people per region.

With AWS a region has more than one availability zone.

aws ec2 describe-availability-zones --region ap-south-1 for example shows two datacenters in mumbai.

Across physical site security, to power to network to just hard drive and system decommissioning, more than 6 staff.

I wonder if this is partly why AWS has done so well. I've used colo and hosted providers who do seem to have basically no one actually on site.
I am actually quite sympathetic to libertarian thought but I never hear any concrete suggestions for dealing with complex issues like nuclear power safety, pollution (especially toxins where the effect is not that clear), public health, food safety and others.

For example: Innovation in self-driving cars would be much quicker if there was no regulation but how do you balance that against people not wanting to get run over by a car with buggy software? This would be an interesting discussion. Twitter is just a too easy example.

Instead of using GitHub as a public log, it's possible to use a publicly verifiable cryptographic log: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Binary_Transparency

That would move the trust from GitHub to that public log. However, GitHub provides us not just the "publicly verifiable update" part, but also the "authenticated update" part. In other words, how do you know that the person putting something in a blockchain is the owner of the website? You'd need a public key, and then not lose it, etc. But it's indeed possible.
How are you planning on monetizing this? (What I’m really asking here is: why is this free and how do you plan on still being around in 6 months?)
The datacenters should be where the users are, not where the developers are.
Having worked previously at a company that sounds very similar (maybe even the same one?), our approach was primarily using individually written scrapers and API integrations (when available) in Python, utilizing an underlying scraping framework that predated requests. As you might imagine, these integrations required constant maintenance and were often bug-prone, so much so that the company eventually found itself in the position of outsourcing the work... There were attempts to reduce maintenance through the use of a in-house DSL/rules engine, but ultimately, the range of integrations it was able to support was very limited, and the project was scrapped.
I visited Arcosanti as a child in the late 70's and then again about 10 years ago. It looked like the city of the future in the 70's. 30 years later it did not seem like it aged well. It's like those Olympic stadiums that fall into disrepair a few years after the Olympics.

I visited Biosphere 2. It's a completely different environment from Arcosanti. It failed to meet expectations despite how much money was invested.

"core" CPI includes housing.

This is funky for another reason: people don't live in similar housing to what people lived in in the past. If you look at census data (American Housing Survey) from 40-50 years ago, you find the average American home was under 1500 square feet, 2-3 bedrooms, 1-2 bathrooms, no AC, no laundry machines, and so on. In fact, the average American home in the 1970s was smaller and had less amenities than the average current American home for people below the poverty line.

Any measure that just looks at the change in housing costs and doesn't adjust for the benefits of on-average larger homes with more amenities will end up overestimating that piece of monetary inflation (accidentally counting lifestyle inflation.) As you say, it's really hard to measure the "real value increase of a product", and that makes a lot of inflation measures... sketchy.
Context?

For those of us who have never heard of Wireguard, I can click on the linked Wireguard image to at least see what it is. Cool, I guess? If it was a standalone link on HN ("hey, look what we made!") it would make a lot more sense, but since it's a G+ post, it's more about the blog-type content. I guess the main point is the discussion of merging it into the (Linux?) kernel tree, but... yeah.
