There's a more accurate and detailed explanation of the Kafka protocol here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+Repl...

In step 5 of your example, the new leader does not truncate its log; only the new followers do.

Basically, every message that was committed is guaranteed to be in every in-sync replica's log. (Some of these may be after the replica's HW.) But the converse is not true: some replica's logs will contain messages that may not have been committed.

So the new leader has to keep its entire log -- which includes all acknowledged messages, plus some unacknowledged ones that become committed as a result of the leadership transition. But the new followers have to discard messages above their HW, because those messages might not be present on the new leader.
Anecdotally, I've been running High Sierra Betas for a few months now and have experienced zero issues. I'm also a die hard apple fan that uses all of the built in apps except for Music (I prefer Spotify).

What makes you think other living beings besides humans don't have thoughts? IMHO we're just a slightly souped up version of everything else, exist along a continuity, and are not 'special' except in contrived and technical ways.
I'm not above admitting that I was wrong. Thanks for correcting me!
Not really typical, we are very diverse people with very different opinions. What is your argument? Who said government regulations cannot be good and bad? Anything about the subject?
I've played around with pony - ergonomic is not the way I would describe it. The heavy use of actors in the core lib is a powerful abstraction for concurrent systems, but it's a pain, structurally, compared to non-actor systems.

If the auditor is auditing people full time, it’s inevitable that this will happen sometimes. And naturally this will be the one that gets written about, not the ones where they show up on Tuesday morning in the off season.
There are only 18,000 people in this town. To hit his goal of 60 diners a day would require the average person in town to visit more than once a year. How many middle class people are going to spend $130 on an entree on an average Tuesday night? I've never spent that much on a meal and my income is too high to be considered middle class in the US.
> Unfortunately one person suppressing their unethical behavior is inconsequential. If an opportunity exists, eventually someone will use it.

This isn't solely a feature of capitalism. Any system is going to devolve into the strong eating the weak unless the strong identify with and have solidarity with the weak.

I have recently become much more willing to listen to ethno-nationalists of all ethnoses based on this realization: stripped of any imperialistic impulse it may be the best way to generate cross class identity in a given political unit. I tend to think size/scale matters as well, perhaps more so, so that the strong are forced into closer quarters with the weak and so that social interactions are iterated, leading to a better stable state.
iExplorer Cracked Serial for Mac OS X Full Download – Crack4Mac
Exactly. Sierra was bad enough requiring a bunch of expensive software upgrades (vmware). There hasn't been any difference in os x in years. My MacBook Pro never slept properly and needs to be hard booted in all of the four past os x releases so there's no need to upgrade even to get the bugs. I wonder if I'll ever own a laptop that sleeps properly, but at this point I doubt that just like I doubt anyone can write a proper file system sync between host and guest vms. I guess some things are just impossible to solve yet, but I'm sure ai will solve all of this in two weeks once it takes over, except Apple's quality problems which seem intractable. /s
They recently opened up their marketplace to junk sellers from China and India, then adjusted their automated ML to be super restrictive to sort out the junk, and honest US businesses are now treated the same way as junk Indian ones, getting kicked out on mere suspicions of violations (i.e. presumed to be guilty by default). I guess it doesn't matter to them.

And are hardly solely responsible for the opioid crisis as	StreamBright suggests. Of course government could have done something to avoid this, however, they'd likely be criticized for putting forth regulations that stifle innovation and hurt businesses. StreamBright's definitely not wrong though that the prohibition of weed has exacerbated the problem.
You can't generalise like that about the whole of Europe - it's a very diverse region. I walked across Europe this summer, from Ireland to Istanbul. Southern Germany is doing fine, but Northern France has been hollowed out. The humdrum little rural towns and villages are not doing well at all. I passed through many places where empty shops had signs in their windows saying things like "thank you for your custom over the last eighteen years, but we can no longer make a living here."
Two-phase commit is actually very different, because it assumes the coordinator never fails permanently. In 2PC, the coordinator's storage is always the authoritative decision-maker on whether the system is committing or aborting. If the coordinator goes down, all you have to do is wait for it to come back.
I'd say Man on the Moon is a pretty good highlight of Kauffman. He was a comedian that was essentially about the next big joke. Lots of influence on modern comedy. Obviously comedy has been taken farther and in other directions as well since his time. I also recommend the Netflix docu, Jim & Andy which focuses on Jim Carey's time method acting as Andy Kauffman on Man on the Moon. It has more reveals about Kauffman and some of the people from Kaufman's life were very involved.

How to find a technical cofounder
Spy vs. Spy: A Modern Study of Microphone Bugs Operation and Detection
Your understanding is wrong I'm afraid. You cannot license software you have not written or over which you have no ownership. It is unfortunate that some people believe that the BSD license in itself gives people the rights to relicense the work under GPL. It does not.

This misunderstanding arose from a deliberate attempt by the FSF to co-opt the open software movement by trying to relicense BSD work under GPL without seeking the author's permission. The attempt was successfully challenged by Theo de Raadt in 2007 (http://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20070913014315) and the ensuing discussion in which Stallman was thoroughly educated in the law of copyright can be found here.

http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/Real-men-don-t-att...

(A lot of that discussion concerned whether openbsd was open, but much revolved around the issue raised).

Most programmers are catching with the law in 2017, but
the disinformation is still around.

Of course you can use BSD code inside a GPL project; but that does not entitle you to relicense the BSD code.
Sure, but they pushed way fewer pixels with way fewer colors.
"If there was a free market for drugs (legalization), I suspect we would not be in a crisis."

If not in direct crisis we'd always be on the knife's edge of one.
Incorporate the business. The parents as the majority owners on the board elect the brother as CEO. The brother appoints siblings to executive positions. The executive salaries include stock grants.

The company then trades shares of stock for life annuities of equivalent present value. Essentially, the company starts a pension plan for its owners. As long as they still live, the parents take pension payments, in lieu of dividends or distributions, and the kids gradually build up equity by "working" in their executive positions. The pension benefit appears as a liability on the balance sheet, depressing on paper the basis of the privately-held company stock.

When the parents die, their beneficial interest in the form of the life annuity is terminated immediately, without any intervention by an executor or probate judge. That cash flow from the company is now freed up for dividends. The value flies from the present value of the life annuity to the stock price of the company that no longer has to pay it, just as the last breath leaves the body, so fast that the taxman cannot catch it. The kids will realize a capital gain if they ever sell their stock, and will see a rise in dividend income going forward. This increase in wealth would be the same size as a normal inheritance, but does not trigger taxation until they sell the stock, and avoids estate taxes entirely. Income tax is paid quarterly.

This is fine. The estate tax earns the government no revenue. It served its purpose by encouraging the elder generations to yield their power over the family businesses before they die.
Did you read the article?

He believes the star hurts him because it signals high prices, which scares away potential patrons. So he asked the guide to take the star down, and is now offering more ordinary and traditional recipes.

It should also be noted that many French people are extremely conservative and dislike anything invented after 1950, so the blanquette may please them more than fancy nouvelle cuisine.
Yes. I think a better term here might be corporate personhood, where corporations have some of the rights that people have while shielding their owners from liability.
You were responding to someone arguing that this is a byproduct of giving capitalism free, uninhibited reign (paraphrasing). You are arguing that the cause is government regulation, and that this is the opposite.

Apologies for misinterpreting if this was not your intent, but based on what I just wrote, I don't think it's a stretch to interpret that message as implying that regulation is bad in general.
Money did speak... 90 years ago when interested (and wealthy) parties saw to it that weed be made illegal. It has been banned ever since and so there hasn't been almost any opportunity for the money in the marijuana business to do any speaking. That is the real reason that pharma businesses lobby against legalization of it. Not just because it would hurt their business directly (lost sales) but because weed businesses would be able to legally lobby against pharama's interests.

I see this fact touted around a lot, often in the context of stagnating/eroding wages.

It 100% goes without saying that global poverty decreasing is cause for celebration, but eroding quality of life for a economic bracket of people should not be ignored.

If you look at both facts together however (global poverty is down, wealth has concentrated at the top) then it would suggest that the wealth of the non-wealthy has merely been redistributed. Indeed, this is intuitive if you consider the trend of moving your labour to a cheaper country.

Having travelled to many developing nations, it also (admittedly anecdotally) feels evident that most the wealth reaching developing nations is concentrating with the already wealthy / those in power.

So what it feels to me is like that local inequality is increasing while global inequality is decreasing - the rich are getting richer everywhere while the working and middle classes are slowly converging everywhere.

Unfortunately, as history has so far told, the notion that the erosion of the quality of life has led to improvements of life to someone very far away is a hard sell.
You need to count tourists, especially those specifically looking to tour Michelin star restaurants. There's the reason a tyre company is publishing a food guide in the first place.

Significance testing is probably fine as long as you put your theoretical prediction as the null hypothesis.
One of the worst aspects of this, to me, is when the platform company affords its own apps access to APIs apps from the platform aren't allowed.

As an example consider Apple Pay Cash. It grabs anything you send in the messages app with a dollar sign, and converts it to glittery text that prompts you to pay whoever you're talking to.

Aside from the question of whether that feature is useful to you, it's such a bullshit, cheating way to undercut Square Cash and Venmo.

They're exploiting their position to make an unfair playing ground. Feels so gross to me.
The blockchain supports untrusted nodes. This is typically not a requirement in the typical distributed commit log usecase. Also, this wouldn’t be a simplification. It would increase your costs and decrease performance.
Yes, most likely. 15,000 employees--not all of whom are inspecting--and more than two million farms.
But there are so many problems with that depending on circumstances. Assuming an urban apartment, it is likely very small. It may be loud throughout the day. You may have a partner who also wants to work from home. You may have family coming through frequently. You may not want to live 2/3rds of your life in the same two rooms, and so on.
The "lucrative" aspect of many of these businesses results because they register themselves as 501c3 orgs; yet they clearly operate for-profit enterprises, with active solicitation at jails and courtrooms.

Same here. In fact, "inconsiderate humans" only brushes the surface of what I consider those people to be.
From the article his restaurant cannot continue to afford to pay for the personnel, produce, and percision that the star requires.

So even if his new menu with economical ingredients was star worthy, it's likely that the level of service in the restaurant won't be the same. Waiters serving more tables, no dedicated sommelier, that type of thing.

Also its likely that they won't put as much effort into the visual design of the plates in the kitchen.
For sure, his legacy is lost without historical context. He's less a comedian with good bits and more a character that continually confounds. Now he seems like every other weirdo, but back in the day he was a revolution.

What makes you think the -s ending is naturally plural, rather than just being completely arbitrary?

I am pretty sure the etymology of the plural ending -s and the third person present verb ending -s (which used to be -eth in pre-modern forms of English) are unrelated, and they just sound the same by coincidence.
That, again, doesn't explain anything special about the estate tax (it's also inaccurate in the US, which has no generally applicable VAT). Sure, you can (in a particularly useless way) view any transfer tax as “multiple taxation” on the theory that the money will later go through some other taxed transfer, but that doesn't actually provide a coherent argument as to why a particular transfer, such as inheritance, is especially improper to tax.
That's theoretical, infirect future money, not real tangibld, here and now money provided by companies who profit off the war on drugs.
what's special about 1950? why not 1920 or 1890 or 1130?

Babel is one the few pieces of the modern JS stack that "just works." Most projects work by just including `babel-preset-env`. It gets lumped in with Grunt/Webpack as being a pain, but I rarely fight with it. Compare that to Webpack where a minor config change can suck up a days worth of time wading through mountains of semi-complete documentation.
Plurals evolved to serve a practical role in languages, so that'd be more devolution than evolution :-)

You could also go Indonesian: repeat a noun for plural. "Frog-frog play in water!"

From what I always heard, the Michelin Guide has very very particular demands on your service. It has to be so and so. It's not only how it tastes, but also the formality with which it is served. (This has to be checked though.)

It's indeed strange about the hawking stall, but I suppose the standards are not the same abroad as domestically - or for a stall for that matter.

Having been to 1-star restaurants thrice, and to gastronomic restaurants a few more times, I have to say the distinction isn't that helpful, and didn't reflect the quality of the food or service. For contrast, Trip Advisor is a better discriminator for lower-level establishments, even if it has its faults as well.
What do you mean?

EDIT: I googled it, I see where you're going with that...
> With a top menu at $130

That $130 is most likely for an entire several course meal, not an entree.

I think most middle class people go out to nice dinners a few times a year for anniversaries and birthdays.
I really liked this post, and I'm again saddened to see 'take downs' in the comments (not solely addressing you).

The author said "prioritize" not to sacrifice profitability in order to learn. By prioritizing learning you may very well increase profitability over the long term. See the recent Google Maps is a moat post.
A good read for learning fun and practical examples of how to define problems for a solver. I never learned terribly advanced math because it bores me, but papers like these are more accessible and help me get into the mathematician's mindset.
Leaders typically aren't good at their job unless they've had experience working "in the trenches". IMO, don't try to rush into leadership.
IIRC the HW of the followers is updated after it writes the message to memory meaning that if the leader failed that instant, it would have writes which weren't acknowledged to the client.

You might, I have a mac mini that has run fine since day one of the high sierra update. However, my rMBP has had several freezes (at least once a month) and a few graphical glitches (had to do a hard reboot after every instance).

Both were updated at the same time. I keep my work laptop (another rMBP) on Sierra and I might just skip updating that one altogether.

" Such regressive developments can only be pauses in an ongoing forward movement."

Trashy globalist arrogance.

The 'Germanics' have been around for a few thousand years, it's not an issue of 'nation state' - if they believe that all that they are is more than some Federalist, unelected Bureaucracy, then so be it.

Sweden is in many ways more successful than many US states - so then why do they need a Federation?

Why do certain people think that the tendency towards global governance and the abolition of states, ethnicity (i.e. actual diversity) is a good thing?

And how do they somehow make it a moral issue?

For about 1000 years the borders of Europe have bounced around but somehow they almost always end up roughly along ethnic lines.

How many wars were fought over Spanish succession? By French, Habsbourgs etc? And yet, 'Spain' is pretty much 'Spain' even to this day (yes, an amalgamation surely, but most of them roughly 'Spanish' at least considerably more so than they are 'German' or 'French').

It's also a crazy paradox that those usually virtue signalling 'diversity' in specific locales, are the same one's pushing for policies which tend to break up and delegitimize ethnic groups, thereby decreasing ethnicity in the world.
It's false, but fair to say the family is involved in both political parties. They seem to lean more towards the Democrat side, but that's to be expected given Obama's two terms.

The reason it matters is that political clout and general goodwill helps shield them from legislative action and judicial inquiry.
