Good point. Though that puts this somewhere in a middle ground between a best effort stream and a reliable stream. The ability to throw away data you don't care about is not absolute but is instead conditional upon successfully receiving more data.

In a true best effort streaming system, the sender wouldn't retransmit. With this scheme, the sender might retransmit, sometimes, depending on whether certain packets get through and allow certain acks to get sent.

Container/VM management software may already provide a way to remote into them, so that would be redundant.

Plus it's a minimal image, you can build your own intermediate one on top of that with SSH added.
"Adulterated" mostly means "diluted with water".To be honest "diluted milk from milk man" is not news to Indians :) Also, only 8% had residue of detergents mainly due to improper cleaning of the containers (if you buy loose milk instead of packaged). Most families in India make yogurt at home and the typical way to gauge the dilution is to look at the thickness of the yogurt made out of the milk.
You don't understand what I am saying.

In countries with free healthcare, if you only take the department of health budget in isolation it's of course not going to be an "economic success", and I'm just saying that's ok, we shouldn't expect it to be.

Should we expect our armies to be economically successful as well?
maybe just save the perceptual hash ?
Bitcoin will never go away and certainly won't ever be the product of a museums (What does that even mean?). The problem with your shortsighted line of thinking is that the technology doesn't have to work "as intended" to work. Bitcoin now has global name recognition, every major exchange allows you to exchange it, it's owned by hundreds of thousands of people and it's the most battle tested blockchain in existence. Bitcoin is now essentially a virus that won't be stopped, for as long as there is greed and speculation in this world Bitcoin will continue to spread.

This is not to bash the technology like so many people do here on hacker news (for reasons that are beyond me, this forum used to like cool technology, idk what happened (see the down-votes this post will get as testament to that)) I think bitcoin is good for the world. Bitcoin could be the answer to the consumer and national debt crisis the world faces because it's a form of currency that actually has a limited supply.

If you think this technology is going anywhere except into the wallets of millions of human beings all over the world for the betterment of finance then you're sadly mistaken and I'd be willing to bet you on it. Bitcoin doesn't die.

This is supposed to run inside of a container. Why would you want sshd inside of a container?
Perhaps it is the opposite. It has tons of unit tests, but no integration tests.

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that this couldn't be done. I was trying to indicate that it is hard to do and adds a decent amount of complexity as someone who has written software that does this.
Luckily, this is a globally distributed, unregulated speculative instrument that can't be sued or brought into bankruptcy, so the likelihood of another bubble at some point in the future is high.
I don't want an sshd installed by default in my containers. What's your use case?
I've always wondered if there's a way to do this without needing the header files. Like by parsing the debug information. Obviously, this means you need there to be debug information, but that always struck me as a cleaner solution.
They don't necessarily give you a way of getting into the node, especially if it's in a broken state (which is the time i'd want to have a look)

EDIT: I was wrong, this is made to be a container base, not for the nodes themselves (there is no init system)
Also, foods with digestive fiber feed good bacteria, and stop them from munching on YOU, aka, gut inflammation, which is also a big thing we're somehow just learning about now, with relation to how it can ruin your entire life (no exaggeration) with stuff like cancers, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's most likely, etc.
I dunno.

WSL seems to be more about the success of the Linux kernel API than any philosophy.
I put together a new computer this week. Everything new but I still have my 760TI in it because I'm not paying $1000 for a graphics card. You can get a 1050 reasonably priced still, but that's more of a lateral move than an upgrade for me. Here's to hoping the market returns to normal soon.
Healthcare will ALWAYS be a market. All something like single payer does is distort the market incentives. It generally trades innovation for quantity of covered people. There's an argument to be made there, for sure, but you can't pretend like you're going to make something impervious to the drives and interests of consumers and potential providers.

With regard to elective vs non-elective, only about 2% of all healthcare costs are categorized as emergency care. So there's plenty of wiggle room for people to shop around for a good price or wait for better market conditions.

What I would love to see is taking Medicare/Medicaid and instead of paying for healthcare services we just cut a check for cold hard cash to everyone who would've been receiving government funded care. Then they can spend that money on whatever they want. I guarantee you prices will drop through the floor. Some of those people will choose quality of life over longevity by going on vacation instead of paying for healthcare. I say good for them, do whatever you want it's none of my business.
> "Be homeless or work" is not a choice. Just like "Give me the money or I'll shoot you" is not a choice.

Give me healthcare or I will imprison you is your actual proposition, once you shed the intermediary steps.

Freedom is freedom from men, not from nature. We all decay and are victims of our biology, as well as our desires. You are as subject to dying from starvation as of dying from lack of healthcare service if people denied you access to it. The question is not if you have a right to demand those goods, but why the people that are willing to serve you health care for cheap cant get to you.
> Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense for CTE to appear in defensive/offensive linemen, as they are rarely the ones taking/making big hits

Uh... what?

Lots of big hits happen on the line, both associated with tackles and not (a “pulling” offensive lineman hitting a defensive lineman or linebacker coming through an apparently open lane being a prime place big, non-tackle hits occur.)

Now, it may be true that because linemen are—compared to, e.g., wide recievers—built like tanks they visibly respond differently to the impacts (but that just means that something cumulatively bad for the brain won't be as likely to be limited by other more acute injuries), and it's definitely true that a lot of those impacts happen off the ball or as the play goes by, and so aren't as much a focus of attention and camera priority.
> An attitude of every-last-measure-possible-to-save-a-life is disrespectful to life.

This is a complete straw-man when talking about long-term cancer survival rates and treatment success outcomes.

> So your blanket condemnation is unfair.

There's no blanket condemnation. The survival rates for cancer in the UK are dramatically lower than they are in the US. When you break it down by types of cancer (since prevalence is not uniform), the comparison becomes even more apparent, especially for forms of cancer that are considered generally treatable.
It isn't clear afaik. Maybe i'd like this as an alternative to CoreOS or whatever for my k8s nodes?

EDIT: Good point, you're right, it has no init system etc and is meant to be used in a container. Point conceded :)
I think a definition of investing which sees, for example, picking penny stocks as gambling and not investing is more useful. Really it's a gradient and I can't tell you where exactly to draw the line but there's a difference.

They do have some rust showing up in their repos. It looks like its mostly bindings needed to run rust on the OS. I don't know what their long term goals with it are. I'm guessing they want it for writing high performance user space daemons or whatever the fuchsia equivalent is.

well.. arrogant is a strong word. anyway, your general case is that if you express any interest in some thing in time, then you are better-than-random to target. I'd posit that its a spread, and whilst its an edge, its nothing like 100% foolproof. I also buy ads (I help run experiments using google ads to run HTML5 in the browser to measure IPv6) and I know how the ad bidding process works, and keyword matching and its pretty crude. Yes, it has age and other profile selection, but so does traditional print ad.

digital ads are better than print ads because print is dying. I think the whole metrics thing, its pretty oversold.

since it was known I visited cargo short buying and advertizing sites, its also known the exponential dropoff in not visiting them. their ageing out algorithm needs adjusting.

I have read about Dynamicland before and really like the idea of an interactive program/computer. However, I still do not understand what they are actually doing. For example this quote:

> "Each one of these was made by a different person at a different time, yet Bret was able to combine them without making a single code change, he just placed them next to each other."

What exactly are they programming? Writing that face from scratch would take a LOT of code. Or is it like a high level framework they are all using which combines visuals together? The idea seems very fun, wholesome, and educational. However, they do not explain what is actually happening from a programmer point of view.
My 2 cents, and possibly quite wrong: Is the ncurses packages really necessary in the minimal ubuntu image? It seems likely that curses based programs should be likely candidates for exclusion in a minimal image, as they are not usually meant for automation.

Also, why are there still motd files in /etc/update-motd.d? No sshd but still a motd? Odd.
You mean that there’s no way to join these discussions in Apple-sanctioned versions? I mean, I’m all for sensible defaults and protecting unwitting users, but if somebody wants to join and view, there should be something they can toggle somewhere to enable that functionality.
It wasn't an argument about a trend. The question of whether you can drive a car by filling its gas tank with cola instead of gasoline is answered after you fill a car with cola instead of gasoline, then drive it. There's no need to establish a trend.
I disagree. It allows people that are interested in Fuchsia, but don't have the skills, time or hardware to build it, an opportunity to visually follow its progression.

If you're unable to discern whether your doctor's preferred solution is the best one, then what is the purpose of asking your doctor in the first place? Or how would it be beneficial if the "worst" provider was forced to charge you the same as the best provider?

> Providing free healthcare is the best way to treat more people.

Outlandish claim. Venezuela has free healthcare. Argentina has free healthcare. Germany has free healthcare. And in each country, people go private when they can afford it.

> All countries with free healthcare also have way tighter regulation on the pharma/medical industry than say, the US, so they can't just go and rise the price of medications whenever they want.

You got cause and effect mixed up. It is regulation that makes pharma expensive in the us. It is the FDA that doesnt allow german pharma to flood the US, and that puts incredibly onerous costs to the R&D and manufacture of drugs.
Thats why it is better for patients in the us to fly to other countries to buy their medication and fly back, in retail smuggling.
What's to say they aren't? If you are trying to accumulate, would you bump up the price publicly and buy privately or suppress the price publicly and buy privately? I know what I'd do, especially if there were no laws around any of it.

Personally I trust the future of finance, governance, security representation, IOT, fog computing and other yet to be developed applictations to software engineers rather than wall street and lawyers.

Most people don't buy IBC totes of dish soap to save a few bucks on the unit price because it's impractical, never-mind that they don't have the equipment to reasonably deal with liquids in that volume.

If you're not that rich then it doesn't make sense to go all out optimizing your taxes because the savings aren't big enough and the costs of doing so are high enough to make the net result a savings.

Not being rich enough to have access to certain tax avoiding structures is like complaining you not being able to get the savings of buying a ton of dish soap because you don't have a fork lift.
I maintain my Ruby side-project for years and I opensourced some self contained parts of it (e.g. an extension to nginx), also contributed fixes to libs I use. Over the years they got some stars, tickets etc.

Although some people get impressed that I do some meaningful side stuff I think networking is much more important factor which helps me find a job. Especially in unrelated closed source envs, like enterprise Java.

So I would suggest to talk with influential tech people around you, learn from them, stay in touch when they change job. Ask what they do, do they need help with their projects etc. And if you are good they should be happy to recommend you at their places.
The tale of my greed
NFL players make a median salary of $770,000 (the average is $1.9 million). Short average career or not, that's good money. That's more than ten times the median household salary in the US (granted they probably get taxed at an obscene rate compared to the median household).

It's not like they're incapable of working once they're out of the NFL. Most of them will be qualified for coaching jobs at the college or high school level. Also, most of them will have college degrees (or be a year away from a college degree), so job finding wont be nearly as difficult as if they hadn't played football.
The single biggest difference between rugby and American football tackles is that (typically) in rugby you put your head behind the the runner while in American football you put it in front, i.e., across the body of the runner. The latter technique is only really possible without frequent facial injury when you're wearing a helmet and is used because it is more reliable (harder for the runner to run through). It also leads to more head, and especially head-to-head, contact.
Would be nice if desktop Ubuntu images became smaller as well. I have a few 1GB USB drives just waiting for it.

In the current political climate I wonder if fee tail could be brought back. The predominate opinion among economists and, especially, legal scholars on the far right seems to be in favor of removing any and all limitations on the enforceability of contracts and trusts, and I could see the far right in many states embrace a return of fee tail as it would be easy sell to their political base as a way to preserve property in the family.
You're right. It would probably make more sense to just have a peer to peer storage and computation network with a bidder/buyer market (which could accept everything from USD to any random crypto-currency). There's no good reason to have the system built on a blockchain.
Not arguing that point for this image, but I use containers as lightweight VMs, not only as stateless-horizontally-scalable-try-to-be-google app servers.
Hm, you got me wrong there. Even though I am lonewolfing quite a lot, I know I am a social being and I like to be part of a group.

I am just turned off by most mainstream group's, which actually look to me that the main thing that is holding them together, is either force or alcohol.

But those who do likes that, I don't mind. I am just into different groups.
Very interesting! Thanks for the short introduction!

Might I suggest adding an introduction along those lines to your README or docs? I think right now, when someone stumbles upon the project, unless they already have a very good understanding of the topic it is really hard to get a grip of it. From my experience, adding some more basic introductions to a scientific field (or links to such resources) to the documentation of a domain-specific software can go a long way in getting people interested in the field.
College donors can also have an impact here. Right now, football makes colleges money. There's been recent controversy over Wesleyan, for example, focusing on football because of the money it makes: https://slate.com/culture/2017/12/wesleyan-university-footba... If donors stopped giving in response to football and started demanding accountability for the long-term effects of the sport, it could have a major effect.

It may also require coordinated action, since no one wants to be the first college to give up the cash cow. This is where action by the NCAA or even legislation would be helpful.
You might be putting too much blame on the government for the price increases. The former two, education and healthcare, are also affected by "cost disease" since they've seen little automation relative to other activities.

Everything is always painted in such an adversarial light, it makes you despair sometimes.

I think that The Atlantic's recent article on this topic is a more nuanced insight[1]; human-machine cooperation is probably where the big money will be. Companies that seek to cut people out of the loop will probably run into a lot of problems, as will those that smash the looms. Whereas trying to smooth the interface between AI/ML conclusions and human oversight is probably going to see the most success.

I've heard on the grapevine here in Boulder that Apollo 13's infamous tank, when being transferred between Beech Aircraft and Rockwell, was dropped about a foot. Beech Aircraft wanted to scrap the whole tank and red tagged it, but were overruled by project managers at NASA since they couldn't point to anything wrong in some tests of the tank.

Excellent remarks from the Internet, thank you.

Addressing your points in order:

+ So you're suggesting everyone gets an equal split regardless of salary? I get it, that's probably fairer.

+ Again, you're saying the same profit share regardless of role or salary, right?

+ Sales easy to manage but they "get" numbers more than most people. Pay them money when they earn it. Agreeing how they earn it is the trick. My plan is to compensate sales people in addition to profit sharing on an OTE basis.

+ The primary business purpose was originally for motivation but to be fair I think all my team are sufficiently motivated to do a good job. They're all diligent and thoughtful about their work, and passionate about getting shit done. Because of that, there's no need for the profit share to motivate them further.

Instead I suspect it's just a way of rewarding them for their work, and have them partake in our success meaningfully.

In other words, yes it's a good will program. On that basis if it's an equal split of profit at say 20% regardless of salary that's fair, and somewhat easy, to implement.

+ Equity is a nice idea, and something that comes next when we've solidified certain key people's roles.

+ Shadow equity eh? I had not heard of that. I'll give that some consideration.

+ Here's the profit sharing scheme I think I'm going to run with, it's as simple as you suggest: 20% of all profits for the financial year will be paid out to all staff, split equally across individuals regardless of their salary, seniority or, length of service. We all ultimately partake in our jobs equally, and should therefore reap equal benefits.
Out of curiosity, what do you use Terra for? It looks cool but I haven't found an excuse to use it.
Somewhat off topic: Is there an effort similar to this for CentOS 7? The centos minimal image is still rather large and I have to do some really ugly things to prune it down. Even then I can not get it down anywhere close to 80 MB. That would be amazing.
Correct. Which is why my argument is, if we're going to keep having blood sports, let them use the drugs to improve their muscle mass to hopefully protect them slightly better from this stuff, improve recovery/rebuild time, and make the game more exciting, surely.
> At least in US you get the medical treatment first and then they hand you a large bill to pay

This as a legal mandate applies to emergency stabilization (including assessment as to need for same) only. It may happen with other things, but that varies a lot and is mostly a matter of what the particular provider finds most convenient.

That's the most entitled thing I've read all year, but I look forward to the next 11 months.
