Nice to see this, one that Google Cloud always had a nice advantage with seamless identities when using G-Suite for productivity and email. I'm expecting the next version to integrate deeper into workspaces/docs/mail so that they reach parity with the other clouds here.
Storify was pretty useful as a curation tool, and I remember using it to sort through the information/disinformation around the Japan quake (https://storify.com/boheekim/collaborating-to-storify-japan) back in 2011. There is a definite need for an embeddable/centralized stream of updates during times of disaster or crisis. Folks often whip up a collaborative Google Doc on the fly, but a lighter weight mobile friendly solution would be awesome.

Agreed and this brings up a big point. One of the most important things I have learned over the years is to look at the product. In a way, a product is like a painting and it is highly representative of the team that made it.

Is it fine art or throw away art? See how the team talks about their product. Their attention to detail and in this case how they treat their users. It tells you a lot about their values and how they, themselves, treat each other.
It’s a game of cat and mouse for sure. See Tor plugable transports for some more circumvention ideas.

I believe it is a game ISPs acting in bad faith will ultimately lose.
> Content-aware load balancing/QoS at higher stages, if done correctly/morally, leads to better service for everyone.

"Content-aware" isn't really what's required. You can get decent QoS by just putting CoDel on every buffer, so that congestion doesn't lead to unreasonable latency. Your latency-sensitive traffic will still get its share of packet drops in proportion to how much bandwidth it's using, but the end result will be that your latency-sensitive traffic won't be affected by congestion as much as the high bandwidth bulk file transfers that are causing most of the congestion.

If you want to go further to protect the latency-sensitive traffic from packet drops in the event of congestion, you can upgrade from codel to fq_codel. Then the traffic flows that are using most of the bandwidth will get the packet drops first, and your low-rate latency sensitive traffic will be unaffected until it's taking up your fair share of bandwidth.

None of that requires being explicitly content-aware. Traffic flows on port 80 get treated with the same rules as traffic flows on port 500. UDP flows get the same rules as TCP flows (except that your UDP traffic almost certainly doesn't support ECN). Flows originating from Netflix get the same treatment as flows originating from Windows Update. And it all works well for the users, while being content-blind in every way except for deciding which packets are related to each other.

Not only does it work well, but it almost always works better than any manually-crafted QoS ruleset that singles out certain ports and protocols and endpoints and applications. Those rulesets are inherently fragile and riddled with corner cases, and require expert maintenance to keep up with changing usage patterns.
holy shit. just on litecoin?
> I wonder if you could also receive similar results by simply turning some connections "off" for a while, only training the rest of the connections. Then turn the missing connections on a gain and, randomly turning a few other connections off, and continue training.

Isn't that almost like Dropout? Dropout does what you say but it changes the dropped set of neurons for each individual example.

It seems to me like bitcoin is more comparable to a wire transfer than to the other forms . Like a wire transfer, but unlike nearly every other form of digital payment (credit card, debit card, ACH), it is irrevocable. It's fees are also competitive with the $20+ that sending a wire transfer will cost.

That would make it something of a niche form of payment compared to say credit cards. You aren't going to use it to pay for a cup of coffee, but there still are trillions of dollars worth of wire transfers per day. That is roughly one thousand times the amount currently transacted per day in bitcoin at the current valuation so even taking over a tiny portion of the wire transfer market would justify bitcoin's current valuation.
yeah, makes sense. I wanted to make sure you were talking about RSA key exchange in particular.

This is what people thought when Visual Basic was released 20 years ago. Why it hasn't happened is our programming languages are stone age tools when it comes to representing and dealing with ambiguities.

All that plumbing you do is basically disambiguation. It involves (multiple) clarifying conversations, tradeoffs that you justify, taste, vision etc. Basically anything that falls under the 'there is no right answer' chapter of whatever front end text book you read.

Once we have breakthroughs in natural language understanding that's when not just designers but anyone will be able do away with programmers.

Despite all the AI hoopla it's not going to happen any time soon. All you have to track is how systems are dealing with ambiguity.
Very true. I'd of course run tests, but I would guess port 80 would work these days because of QUIC. Even port 53 is probably locked down to whitelisted hosts.
Heard of the quote "You don't hate Mondays - you hate capitalism" ?

I doubt the urge to scapegoat the homeless will become a widespread one, but I'm sure that some (ie land grabbing developers..) need to hear this:

"you don't hate the homeless - you hate how they serve as a reminder that you can always face ruin. The more you make, the harder it gets to empathize with a guy with a sign, or even to look him in the eye for more than a glance...

Love fish, especially because of the easy configuration and out of the box features. No need for complicated frameworks or curated dotfiles. There are two syntax changes I’d love to see:

1. Support for last command by !!, as in `sudo !!`.

2. Ability to search history from a partial command like `git checkout`, where up arrow would step backward from the present.

I wish all my tools were as friendly as fish!
I think we're saying the same thing. Devaluation of the currency and bidding up nominal prices are both synonyms for "inflation" as far as I can tell, and in this case the former happens to be caused by the latter.

The point about deflation is something I hadn't considered. I'm skeptical, and if you have any references on that point I'd be glad to see them.
> will likely leave a lot of "investors" out of money.

Do you think this is a bad thing? I’m on the fence. If someone’s dumb enough to buy into these obviously stupid ICOs, chances are that the person getting the money will spend it better than the buyer would have.
There are cheaper forms of transfer, yes, but there are also much more expensive forms of transfer. A wire transfer will cost you $25 or more and yet there are still millions of them sent per day.

If it were that simple to deal with hyperinflation, why won't they just buy USD?

Because the government will forbid it? They can forbid the purchase of BTC, or the exchange of it for goods, too.

Oh, in-person off-the-books transactions will solve the problem? Well, you don't need BTC for that, you can do in-person transactions of bolivars for USD, too.
Well, the obvious and immediately painful one is the hard-to-recover failure mode when you discover something you rebased wasn't private after all. (Which can happen in many situations, eg github merge button, even without other people involved).

The other is that it destroys history, you change the record of what actually happened to the version that is a plausible simplification in the opinion of git's diff/merge heuristic. You then can't then go back for to look for explanations of bugs or test code changes, which change happened first or whether a fact claimed by a commit message was really true at the time, or where is some change a merge mess-up or considered change.

Rebase also really complicates the mental model of git you have to work with.

I appreciate though, that there are cases where you want to withhold the record of what actually happened and use squash/rebase, it's a type of privacy from others. But simply grouping together commits into one is not a good reason to do it, that's what merge commits are for after all.

Interesting, I had a similar problem, suddenly no land line, and crippled Internet, then after a week, dead, I had nothing.

Thank you for the refutation to this sadly-commmon misconception that NN only dates back to 2015. Another sad misconception is that NN was proposed by the Obama administration.
When I first got to Baltimore there were a lot of studies on cities, and I became very involved in the problem of housing -- housing finance, housing collapse in the inner city, housing conditions in general. I was fascinated to do a series of reports for the city, and also for other agencies, about how to approach the whole question of urban regeneration, which is very much on the agenda there.

It was extraordinary to me that some of the ideas I got for that came out of reading Engels's famous saying on the condition of the working class in England in 1844; and also the housing question where he says the bourgeoisie had only one way to solve its housing problem: it moved it around. When I started to look at what some of the proposals were, they were about gentrification, which, in effect, would displace people and just simply move the problem around.

So I made a big pitch in these reports, saying, "If you're going to address this question, you can't address it in a way that simply moves it around. In order not to move it around, we have to deal with basic questions about income distribution, wealth and the like, and, also, of course, racism, and housing markets and so on." This was a very important principle that came out of reading Engels, and then importing it. I put it into these reports; I didn't cite Engels. I didn't cite Engels, and everybody thought this was a fantastic insight, and somebody said to me, "Where did you get that from?" I said, "From Engels," and they said, "Who is he?"

"Tom Engels, the local congressman"!

"Does he work for the Brookings Institution?" or something like that. It was funny. But this was how I would sometimes find myself using this stuff in factual ways, and it resonated with people. I got a lot of encouragement to stay with this framework, that when you actually laid it out, used it in this way, using these kinds of concepts, people understood what you meant. The only time they turn around and walk the other way is when you tell them where it came from.

I have done several things:

- I have stopped consuming (news, politics, articles, videos, etc) and have started creating more (drawing, writing, building, etc)

- I have adopted the idea of digital minimalism, using only the essential applications, not participating in social media (hi, hn!), no roaming the internet/using the internet less, etc

- Also, physical minimalism, again only the necessities: comfortable bed, desk, chair, bookshelf, simple and fashionable clothes and shoes, etc

- Food minimalism? Eat only well-cooked, healthy food, also fruits and vegetables, drink only water, fruit drinks and wine/beer on the special occasion

- Taking time to reflect and being consciously aware of what I consume and whether I ought to stop or continue consuming x and y

- Exercise/proper sleep (hiking, swimming in the ocean, cycling rather than driving, etc), the backbones of my life

- Again, doing away with non-essentials: television in your bedroom, unhealthy food, fancy materialistic items, etc

- More of the natural things and less of the artificial things: more: sitting in my backyard and watching the night sky, walking in the morning, etc less: roaming the internet, using my mobile device, having headphones in when there are people who I can talk to around me, etc

- Most importantly: less thinking, no worrying, no comparing, no using labels and identifications, no judging, no interpreting every experience I experience, more just being with no interpretation, natural mind > cultured mind, etc
It's fairly straightforward: everyone gets high priority up to X mbits/s with no upstream oversubscription. Everyone gets best effort up to their last mile speed after that. If there's still available bandwidth, everyone gets idle-only traffic without a cap.

You could add more priorities in between, etc. as needed.
I think you're talking about Key Values/Culture Queries here, so let me chime in:

The team behind Key Values and Culture Queries is just me (oh hi! ) and I care tremendously about my users. Since I've been working full time for the last 6-7 months to build these incredibly valuable resources for people without charging for it, I thought it'd be okay to ask for an email address in exchange. I mean, you can always unsubscribe?

If you find my content to be high quality and interesting enough to want more of it, and you feel frustrated that you aren't getting more... why not stay in touch and let me continue delivering you high quality content? (Serious question.)

Ps. You can always spend 20 seconds going back, selecting fewer values, and seeing the results for those. I won't be mad. Pinky promise.

I hate the fact that we have involuntary homeless. We have more than enough in this country to fix that. It's a choice of the voting public and the politicians that scorn and hatred and blame is pushed on them.
I also don't understand the context. I agree with your point, but saying that you can't discriminate against citizens according to the Constitution doesn't mean they are guaranteed access to power. I don't think the virtue of being a US citizens obliges someone to give them access to electricity.
Each of the largest 10 banks in the US use SAML identity providers for their SSO.

That issue was definitely a free speech problem, however, not nearly as threatening to free speech as net neutrality. Websites can move to other hosting providers or even self-host in your own garage. Without NN, an ISP can completely cut off access to many, many sites very easily. Furthermore, there are very few ISPs in the USA with consolidated power as opposed to many web hosts in the world.

Not justifying CloudFlare's decision at all, just saying that I view dismantling NN as a much bigger threat.
The homeless are not some other population. They are people who currently lack housing. With enough affordable housing, some people would never land on the street to start with. They would move to an SRO temporarily, get their act together and return eventually to more conventional housing.

I am not talking about a homeless service. I am talking about policies that shrink the problem in part by preventing homelessness to begin with.

I will add not all homeless are completely penniless, and I have formally studied the subject.
Ehhh, not really. I’m pro net neutrality as much as anyone on HN, maybe more so. But recognize that there is a real business point: content delivery cohosted at the ISP is “free” other than electrical cost of the server, which is probably paid for by the content provider, and is a profit center even without kickbacks. Bits routed to other networks cost money and are a cost center. With last mile speeds increasing but backbone data rates not dropping fast enough it can be a real problem. People who torrent or run bitcoin full nodes are probably costing ISPs large amounts of money.
OpenID Connect is significantly less popular, especially among enterprise on-site apps, than SAML.
haha true, I envy people that just sit down read a book/chapter/article/blog linearly and then comes enlightened, I can't, I need to first Skim almost 90% of the material, and then start again from the bottom, reading the last part and trying to figure out how the first part is connected or are important for understand what is written.

I think that people that read it linearly don't miss important info, but I just can't
How I read Mathematics. First try to find the paper. First use http://front.math.ucdavis.edu . If you can't find it then use google scholar. If that fails then go on the authors academic website. If that fails then see if the author is live and try to contact them. Then repeat for their grad students. If all else fails post it to r/math or HN and ask for the pdf.

Short of bugging the author, you can also go to Wikipedia's entry for SciHub and see what their latest known domain suffix and/or IP address is.

I would compare Q (and other APL-related languages) to Vim editor. There you have some carefully chosen operations which are easy to perform. They don't take much efforts. They are also easy to compose in useful ways - because the corresponding properties support that. Since the basis of editing operations is fairly large, you have many operations; but when you know many of them, you can work powerful edits.

Lisp on the other hand is more like Emacs - naturally. Here we have a small, carefully chosen orthogonal basis of abstract operations - not domain-specific, but "theoretically-foundational" small basis. Then you have a library of macros on top of that, and ability, of course, to extend.

In other words, basis for APL is "classical" math, made executable and expanded with mechanisms required to put in one line programming constructs (logic, control flow, ordering...). It's harder to expand, but you don't often need that. Lisp is a specific branch of math, lambda calculus, which is provably enough to solve arbitrary programming problem. The "inner core" of Lisp is also hard to expand, but what you expand for your task is "the usage" of the language, which is made to be straightforwardly expandable.

To me it's hard to say what is better.

I don't know about the slippery slope argument, but there are lots of economic arguments why people and companies outside the USA should be worried.

BBC, Al-Jazeera, any kind of non-USA news site should be terrified of losing US business. They will be an obvious choice to not include in "default" bundles.

Any non-US video or music startup (imagine one competing with Netflix) will have no chance of getting off the ground in the USA, one of the biggest potential markets in the world.

More nebulous, but a bunch of startups in the USA that would have otherwise succeeded and brought innovation or service to other countries, will not be squashed a fail.
