Last I tried you couldn't scrape down the right side of the ragged edge. I'll try it out again as maybe it's fixed.

Unikernels are mentioned in passing, but are not the cause of the speedup. The main point of the paper is instead the introduction of "LightVM, a complete re-design of the basic Xen control plane optimized to provide lightweight virtualization".
This looks great for someone like me who has no idea what shaders are, but it really needs to start with, "...Fragment Shaders, those things that do X with computer graphics."

Written by people who know what the topic is already, so I think they miss that I went into this not knowing if they were talking about computers or some art form or ink and pen style or whatnot.
I appreciate the response but that doesn't follow logically to me.
I wanted to like Haskell, but just never could get to the point where I enjoyed using it. It always felt messy and complicated to me. I think the language extensions were a contributor to these feelings. I also felt as if I spent more time wrangling with the type system than actually solving my business problems.

Yet I really do like Clojure, F#, and PureScript. There's an experimental C++ back-end to PureScript now [0]. I wonder if that will ever be a viable production target?

Anyway, one of the things I like about PureScript is the row-types. Does anyone know if there's a plan to get row-types into Haskell?

Members of Congress want you to hack the US election voting system
Tell that to people trying to fly any drone in the USA weighing more than 1 kg.
Ok. So he wants to cut spending and also keep his party's donors happy. That second constraint prevents many kinds of cuts, but not all of them.

My point was that he's not malicious, merely apathetic. Hurting people by cutting their benefits is not the goal. Cutting spending by cutting their benefits is the goal.
I think that framing this in an ideological way misses most of what is happening in political discourse right now. Ideology plays a role, but it is in the backseat.

Here's my theory:

Social media has created a new environment (in the ecological sense of the word) and we are witnessing people figuring out all the little niches that exist in this new environment which they can profitably occupy. So, in an example like this, what's really happening is that there are a handful of people who stand to gain tremendously by finding a new target for the mob's outrage, because outrage is what drives traffic and traffic is what allows these people to be full-time "social media personalities".

But the thing is that, for these people, the outrage of the mob is what truly motivates them, not ideology. There is a certain personality type that makes it's way in the world by maneuvering to the front of the mob. Being ideologically consistent is an after thought, if it matters at all. All you need is for your target to kinda sorta look enough like your ideological opponents that you can sell it to the mob. That is the litmus test for choosing a target and what I mean when I said, above, that ideology is in the backseat.

This phenomenon is driven by the opportunities that social media presents and certain actors capitalizing on these opportunities. Which means that this phenomenon is not relegated to right. As a great example, a conservative commentator, Ben Shapiro, recently spoke at UC Berkeley. Some of the protest signage was claiming to be against white supremacy, but, as you may have guessed by his name, Ben Shapiro is Jewish. So, you know, not a white supremacist. And he is not even a Trump supporter.

But a reasonable and nuanced take on things is the antidote to outrage, so of course reason and nuance will be absent among the people on the right and the left who benefit from the outrage of the mob.

Yeah, I also immediately thought of Project Cybersyn when I read this post. On the other hand, Allende's vision for Chile would probably be better described as a democratic-socialist one than a "communist state" one.
I find that the quality of candidates is a function of the quality of the hiring funnel and the money offered.

If your funnel spits out 'surprisingly' shitty candidates then it's probably not the best funnel.

You notice how no one complains about Elon Musk pouring his billions into solar, electric cars, and rockets, or about the Gates family trying to solve disease in developing nations?

No one really cares if someone has billions of dollars if that money is doing some good. The problem comes when they're just hoarding it while people around them suffer from problems that are solvable with a little investment. That money didn't just appear in their bank account. They made it on top of a society and economy that enabled that wealth. No one is an island, even if they're rich enough to buy one.
It is fairly clear at this point that FCC as an agency is a captive of business interests.

It should be treated as openly hostile to the interests of the general public.
I don't get why this is downvoted. 1500AD is not particularly ancient. There are written records.
At the time that OP is describing, censorship was very powerful indeed. Also, Allende's Chile cannot be easily compared to an Eastern Bloc nation in the '70s or '80s.

I could imagine some kind of network developed by an Eastern Bloc nation before 1990, but it would have been extremely centralized, hierarchical, and very strictly controlled.

It has been many years since I read the books, but I'm pretty sure university intellectuals were actual villains in Atlas Shrugged. IIRC didn't they say that more testing was needed before they could count the new supermetal as safe?

I remember thinking at the time that the hero was being really reckless and that advanced composites often fail in new and unexpected ways and that building an entire rail line out of the stuff before you understand how it fails is beyond risky. Of course because it was a book the metal is perfect in every way and never has a problem, but the real world is rarely so forgiving.

> Some fiat currencies lose their value slowly, others do so quickly. That loss of value is precisely what makes them useful. Without the fear of inflation, holders of currency tend to hoard rather than spend it. Hoarding currency depresses economic growth and creates financial instability.

Economist here. That relationship is not clear. A currency skyrocketing in value induces suboptimal willingness to delay spending, yes, but one plummeting in value induces a similarly suboptimal willingness to spend too early.

Moreover, a depressed economy can cause deflation, rather than the reverse: Sluggish economic activity implies weak aggregate demand (people not buying a lot of stuff), which can lead prices to fall.

How to Use the Consumer Decision Making Process to Increase Sales
In case it's useful to anyone on HN working in/on politics, I've been with some Trump supporting and voting people lately, and my takeaways:

- They hate the idea of getting in trouble for using the wrong pronouns for people. A few strongly disliked, and most somewhat disliked, having to use non-traditional pronouns at all.

- They were very upset about stories of people being suspended from elementary school after using the wrong pronoun

- They were upset about a professor getting in trouble for wanting to only use male and female pronouns based on biological gender

- "Don't force it down my throat and I won't force it down yours"

- They feel like they cannot express their views without being attacked. In response, they now express their views much more aggressively and will attack others (sadly).

- They hate hate hate many things that they associate with social justice warriors, e.g. political correctness, "safe spaces," etc.

- They like Trump's outwardly strong stance on terrorism

- They were concerned about the decline of religion, and worry that this will lead to more radical extremists (with the radical extremists converting people who feel disenfranchised and purposeless)

- They support gay marriage but were upset at a story of a store keeper who got in trouble for refusing to serve a gay couple

- They (as former legal immigrants) hate the idea of illegal immigrants skipping the queue

- Extreme distrust of the mainstream media

- Extreme distrust and disliking of Hillary Clinton

- Strong distrust and disliking of Obama (will update if I recall their stated reasoning)

- Generally seemed pretty anti-politicians

I'm not intending to invite a discussion as to whether their opinions are right or wrong. I'm just posting these here because I think that for anyone on HN working in politics, it may be important to know why your opponents dislike (their image of) you.

> The majority of Africa is still dealing with the effects of colonialism.

But that's like saying that Europe is still dealing with the effects of WW2. Poland lost 1/5th of its pre-war population during the war to German aggression, yet modern day Poland's relationship with modern-day Germany is nothing like what these African countries face.
I do not know about you but my peer group has been acknowledging that for some time now.
It seems the goal is to rule it out -- in other words, use the political will centering on interference from abroad to kick start the investigation Ajit Pai is so loath to initiate.

It's a political gambit.
Larry chose to focus on the big data part, because it is intuitive. But I think you're absolutely correct, that it has applications in physics/chemistry (and machine learning too). We're actually talking to people in our theoretical physics department, who may want to use taco for their QCD computations. There's also a new issue on our tracker about adding complex number support for nuclear computations and quantum computing:
https://github.com/tensor-compiler/taco/issues/116.

The tensor contraction engine is great work, and focuses on dense tensor. We currently optimize for sparse tensors so TCE will do better than us for pure dense expressions. We want to bridge this gap next semester though.

The cyclops framework is also great. We discuss it in our related work, but we did not directly compare to it in our evaluation. The first version of it, like TCE, focused on dense tensors, and their main focus is on distributed computing, which we don't support yet (we do shared memory parallel execution at the moment). They have some followup work on sparse computations. The difference to our work is that they, if I read their paper correctly, transposes the data until they can call pre-existing matrix multiplication routines. This causes data movement overheads. Our work compiles expressions to work at the data at hand, without moving it.
If Google penalized or delisted TripAdvisor, they would go out of business.

Arguably, Wal-Mart solved this years ago. Wal-Mart is very centralized. It's so centralized that store thermostats are controlled from Master Control in Bentonville, Arkansas.

One of Sam Walton's big points is that Wal-Mart's success was not due to scale. It was because they were moving data around instead of inventory. Retail used to involve lots of product taking up space in warehouses, store back rooms, and shelves in the store. All that costs the retailer money. Wal-Mart was the first big chain to get this under control, so that product flow followed sales flow very closely. This has an enormous financial benefit. Big retailers typically pay 30 days behind shipments. Wal-Mart (and presumably Amazon) usually have sold the product before they even have paid their supplier. So their inventory cost is negative. Now that's cash flow management.

Wal-Mart was one of the first retailers to bar-code everything. They meant everything. Wal-Mart has a buying center in Bentonville, known in retail as the Corridor of Doom. They put up signs along the line of "If your product isn't bar-coded, don't bother coming in". In typical Wal-Mart fashion, they made the suppliers apply the bar codes, both at the retail item and case level. (They've been trying to move to RFID, but it hasn't worked out as well.)

Gosplan was always very slow. They had a monthly information cycle and an annual decision cycle. Wal-Mart had a daily information cycle and a weekly decision cycle years ago, and it's probably faster now. If Gosplan had made it to the bar-code era, they might have been able to make centralized planning work.

This thread is downvote hell but I'll bite - blaming the US's extremely well known efforts in destabilizing the Middle East and Latin America for unrest, unstable government and stunted economic development in those regions is very fair. The "mistakes" many of these countries made were often along the lines of electing a left-leaning government or simply becoming stable regional power and interrupting Henry Kissinger's bizarre worldview about the balance of power. After the initial few "interventions" the chaos can feed itself for a few decades.
