You've given an insightful assessment of the orchestration space -- a modular DIY treadmill nightmare...

Currently it seems Kubernetes is emerging from the fog as a de-facto standard to eliminate all those uncertainty points and provide a common toolset. It's the only orchestration platform that's a turnkey installtion and a turnkey managed service on all 3 major clouds. VMWare is about to open k8s up to the Enterprise market too with a integrated & managed on-prem service [btw VMWare employees: your PKS blog and cloud blog say this is happening mid december 2017... status update, maybe?...]...

With a shared deployment pane across the cloud and on-prem, wrapped in drag-and-drop tools from the major VM suppliers and sprinkled with "self-updating" magic and QOL improvements in the next few years, I believe we're at a watershed moment for a shared standard :)

Google is pretty good at tricking the industry into training techs for their internal stack.

Been my building worry as i have watched the ongoing changes is the Linux ecosystem in recent years.

It feels like thereis a echo chamber happening, where a small group of peope working for maybe 2-3 companies have decided that their vision is the correct vision.

And everyone that says otherwise are haters and fossils.

I think the advantage of Adyen is that you don't need a new account. It supports payment processors that are used all over the world.
The field got a name when it solidified into a field, just like Natural Language Processing did, or Machine Vision.

I'd say a claim of machine learning being "solidified into a field" is somewhere between false and meaningless.

Just look at neural networks. These may be the most successful machine learning or AI technique ever but they're also the technique most dependent on ad-hoc tweaks and tuning of anything so-far. Which seems rather the oppose of solidified.
Like https://sfbay.craigslist.org/search/bbb?query=personal+chef ?

I don’t know how that would work in Uber-like environment. The chef in question simply might not have the ingredients on hand (especially expensive ones, like truffles or caviar), whatever my heart desires might require significant prep lead time (roasted suckling pig) or not very suitable for delivery (seafood towers, tartars, sorbets).

You're looking for the "Who wants to be hired" thread, which you'll find elsewhere.
I don't think it was called reactive back in the day, but the ideas are old to some degree. If you drop the functional aspects, then "Reactive" programming goes back to Lotus 123 (for the those too young, think Excel).

Data base triggers is also "Reactive", and materialized views are also "reactive".

Are there some novel aspects to "FRP", sure.
Sloppy reporting and childish political swipes. ("President" with an asterisk? Classy!)
The US is, by and large, absolutely insane in how it plans cities. "Mixed use" is a total novelty in most cities...only now being considered for a small percentage of development. Most cities still have city plans and zoning that enforce huge suburban neighborhoods with no commercial development within them. It leads to disastrously bad neighborhoods with disastrously bad traffic going into and out of the places where people are doing things like have jobs or shop. Even hip/progressive cities are this way. It's really a big deal when a development happens that steps out of it, and people in surrounding housing usually raise holy hell to keep it from happening.

Americans are mostly goddamned idiots who hate nice things, is what I'm trying to say. (And, have the nerve to complain about traffic in the same breath as demanding nothing other than single-family homes be allowed within miles of their single-family home.)

> That pulse was emitted long ago from the distant pulsar and then spread outward through space. If you knew the exact time was when it was first emitted and the exact time you had received it, you’d be able to deduce how long it had been flying through space. Dividing by the speed of light would provide you with a measurement of your distance from the pulsar.

Am I missing something here? It doesn't seem like you can know the time emitted if you don't know your position.
S&P Global | Full-Time Onsite | US - New York, Boston, Denver. India - Gurgaon

S&P Global is hiring functional programmers at various levels and locations in US and India.

We are the Analytics Product Development Team, a relatively small group of developers focused on building next generation financial models and applications that leverage S&P's world-class data sets. Last year we launched a re-imagined Portfolio Analytics product that helps investment managers of all types measure the efficacy of their investment strategies and identify areas of risk in their equity portfolios. Put your FP skills to use as we move on to multiple asset classes, intraday analytics, and strategy modeling.

Functional Programming has a relatively long history here at S&P Global. We build our back-end data calculation engine using purely-functional Scala in 2008 and have been building new models and expanding it ever since. We created Ermine, a Haskell-like language featuring row types that can run on the JVM. Ermine drives our templating, reporting, and database access, adding type-safety to user-generated layouts. The new Portfolio Analytics is a single page web application that makes extensive use of PureScript. All of this co-exists in a diverse tech ecosystem that includes the JVM, .NET, and SQL Server.

We have a few open positions, so we are looking for developers with varying levels of experience. Ideal candidates have FP experience, but we'd still like to talk with you if you are just getting started with FP and are looking to grow. Please email resumes or questions to smcfarland@spglobal.com.

Data is finite data structures, while Codata is infinite data structures (like streams.) They are duals because you can generate and process data using induction, while you can use coinduction to generate and process codata. One is "built up" naturally, and the other is "torn down" naturally.
That second Google link appears to be a neo-nazi site, which makes me wonder how much credence to give the theory. Lots of the racial theorists in the 1880s were trying to tie together the Israelites/British/New Worlders. It's kind of a racial fantasy.

The top link reads like a conspiracy theory. You grab lots of interesting phenomena and say "we don't have an answer, therefore x" where x is Vikings, aliens, the New World Order, lizards.

It's genuinely an interesting question, the sources are scary though.
> In other words yes, I agree with you - but think that picking up the slack is the job of charity, and shouldn't involve interference with the market just because it's giving you prices you don't like.

This is fundamentally the reason I (cynically) cannot trust charities (especially religious charities) long-term. The charity machinery requires people to be poor and miserable. Poor and miserable people are the products a charity sells (to donors)! We are the product. A charity is a band-aid. It cannot be as long-term infrastructure.

I agree that we should not prop up failing industries for fear of layoffs. That's just kicking the can down the road. However, I strongly believe a charity has no place in a functioning society.

Why Transfer Learning Will Radically Change Machine Learning for Engineers
Usually most PSP's do have some reserve rule, like keeping the 5% up to an X amount of sum, but with Adyen their team calculated the X amount to be in the millions - not one PSP (and we worked with all of them) had this.
Thanks for this comment, I initially misread their comment as well. I guess that speaks to how highly I think of people in that industry :P

Years ago, I got to watch a Japanese movie narrator (benshi) in action. They're a dying breed who narrate silent movies in real time, on stage, next to the big screen. It's a mixture of narrating, voice acting and improvisation. The same movie could be entirely different with another benshi.

This performance was accompanied by live piano music, played by a pianist who hadn't seen the movie, who didn't speak Japanese, and who didn't have a score. It was over an hour of improvisation, based on what he could see of the movie and his interpretation of narrator's intonation. It was incredible. It was fun, and it was unique. Out of all the movies I've seen, this performance stands out. It would be a shame to lose out on this.

Writing voting bots is a bannable offense on Hacker News. I'm super dismayed to see that you've been doing this for months.

Votes are supposed to represent individual thoughtful responses. If you undermine that, you're driving a spike into the heart of what makes HN any good. You're also encouraging an arms race, given that most users here can write such programs themselves. Just because we can, doesn't mean we should.

There is no requirement for posts in this thread to include salary ranges. That's up to the individual posters. It's easy to think of legit reasons why some may not want or be able to. Readers who want this info are free to use the contact info from the posts to just ask.

I'm not going to ban you for this because you've been a legit user otherwise, but please don't abuse HN like this again.

All: I've removed voting privileges from the accounts that used this bot. If you did and want your votes to count on HN again, feel free to email us at hn@ycombinator.com.
The last Mac keyboard I thought was great was the Titanium PowerBook (the Aluminum was ever so slightly squishier). The polycarbonate MacBooks got a decent membrane keyboard, while the Unibody MacBook Pros got a pretty terrible keyboard throughout their whole run. The touchbar keyboard is less squishy than the Unibody one (good), but it's way too noisy, the layout sucks, and it only took me a couple weeks before some keys stopped working reliably. Unless the 2017 touchbar keyboard brings back the proper amount of key travel I can't imagine it's much better than the 2016 keyboard.

Funny thing is that I sat down with my boss to troubleshoot some stuff today and he was cursing up a storm about the touchbar keyboard (usually he docks the thing and uses an external keyboard). I've largely gotten used to it, but still haven't memorized the location of the navigation / modifier keys. It's like the iPhone 6/7 -- I've gotten used to the camera hump but it still drives me nuts every single time I put the phone down.
Let’s say the BTC network moves towards store of value instead of “Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System“.

Fewer transactions result in fewer blocks. Fewer blocks result in fewer miner rewards. Decreased profitability of block creation will have to be compensated by increased transaction fees. Increased transaction fees will lead to fewer transactions. What’s the incentive for miners to stick around in a store of value environment?
The closest you will find is a consultancy company which has a set of pre-built frameworks/tools for their customers, and then based on budget to allocate number of “consultants” to work with client (they might work 3 days a week “full day”) depending on the budget.

Is that what you are asking? Or you want more like a comprehensive solution like “install some agents, let us access to your github org, so we can tell you when there’s vulnerability, we will managr server updates, automatic deployment and what not” basically we build everything for you and sell that as a solution?

Which means that you would have to keep track of each pulse, if you have a comparatively inaccurate clock. Does not seem practical.

EDIT: On second thought, using an accurate clock would be a tiny fraction of the cost of the whole system, so it's a solved problem.
Not at all, if you take it into account.
My guess is it's even more popular outside the US, or anywhere where credit cards aren't that common - like europe. We link our banking account to Paypal and use it to have instant payments (and fulfillment) without credit cards. You can't expect people to own credit cards over here.

It's just the plugin called Rust. I tried the other ones, but they were not better.

>it does not include debugging support

That's a bit sad, but I haven't had debugging support in VSCode until now. I'd pick good code completion and error hints over debugging. Both would be nice though.

How do you configure that Native Debug plugin for Rust?
If you go on, the article addresses this: measuring the peak of a pulsar signal places you on an infinite set of spheres centered on the pulsar, because you don't know "which" peak you measured (i.e. when it was emitted). Since the pulsar emits a peak every millisecond or so, these spheres are separated by one light-millisecond each. If you repeat the procedure with several pulsars, you should be able to find that there is only one point in space that lies in the intersection between a sphere of each pulsar.

I'm sometimes pondering about some sort of "continuously" committing. A bit like saving all undo history in your repo, auto branching when you go back and forth. I cannot think of a technical reason not to this.

There are definitely client app trends away from the Unix philosophy... I would argue that's a product of the success of the Unix philosophy, though. New apps are developed in a world where 'curl' or 'grep' exist, they can move on to more specific needs.

On the platform front I believe this philosophy has recently 'won the war': Microsoft was forced to create Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) as a compatibility layer to access exactly that rich tool ecosystem and it's server & production oriented workflow... Cross platform means "not windows", even on windows.

Up a few abstraction levels though, and we can see that philosophy dominating in cloud space... "Micro-services" are API enabled single-use tools focused on doing 'one thing well' and yielding coordination responsibility to higher level applications and not assuming as little as possible about their end-use. Tool silos to support new unforeseen use-cases.

Even more emblematic of the Unix philosophy in cloud space is the emergence and growing popularity of "serverless" solutions: hyper focused single-use tools directly integrated into the computing environment. A single function, pumping between cloud services or transforming some text, "freed" from infrastructure.

In days of old we had to build up the foundations -- text manipulation, process stats, diff capabilities -- but based on that amazing ecosystem the new generations of those tools are freed to focus on new problems and speak a more abstract and higher level language -- APIs, event queues, NLP services... Just like how some primates started grunting, and then they grunted numbers, and then they made satellites and then conquered mars with robots. Shoulders of giants, and all that :)

Yep, you're right. For many people, though, increasing their income substantially is harder than decreasing their spending substantially, and also, many people are in the habit of increasing their spending when their earnings increase by, say, switching from Ikea to higher end furniture, or trading in that used Honda for a new Mercedes. For many people, it's so bad that they end up not saving any more, while putting themselves in a more precarious position if their income ever dried up.
