What is the default crud solution on WordPress? Do you create new objects? Are there API generation plugins?

I like WordPress for a CMS (wouldn't recommend anything else for a small to midsize CMS solution) but wouldn't think of it for a crud app.

That said, haven't researched it much lately, so wondering what I am missing.
Yes! I’ve been in Israel for the better part of this last year. One of my neighbors is a comedian. The prevailing humor is very specific to country of origin.

There is so much Ashkenazi American Jewish culture that wouldn’t make any sense to Ashkenazi Jews in Israel.
This is an attack on the Kademlia DHT.

Why exactly does Ethereum use Kademlia anyway?

Kademlia's main purpose is to find content distributed among a small percentage of nodes.

Ethereum doesn't need this, since the entire blockchain is stored on every node.

And does the attack also work against other applications that use Kademlia, such as IPFS and I2P?
Never mind, someone answered my questions:

My Samsung Galaxy S6 is not turning on. HELP
Hi guys, I was using my Galaxy S6 and I accidentally dropped it. I tried to turn it on but it won't turn on. The LED light stays blue and will not do anything. I tried to call but it sounds like is off (the buttons are not illuminated). I connected it to the computer (and sometimes it will turn on the red light, sometimes it won't respond at all and I have used different USB cables). I tried to run the recovery mode, it didn't work. I went to a tech for help, he opened it and cleaned it, replace the board (he used two other boards, none of them worked), he cleaned the charger port, he tested it with two different batteries (he did not remove it, he just connected the other batteries to the socket where the battery is connected). Somebody told me that the issue was the screen, but I'm not sure since the phone won't turn on the lights on the buttons. I tried to hard reset it, didn't work. Any suggestions?
as someone in my 30s whose friends are starting to have children, i always suspected this.

i call it the groundhog day effect.

basically things just start getting repetitive, you start making more money than you know what to do with (other than hoard), and you start answering the biological urge to have children and shake things up.
I wouldn't call Linux toxic but I see your point. Have you considered the possibility that your premise is actually correct?

Just few examples from the top of my head:

* Bill Gates was aggressive office bully and has admitted this himself.

* Steve Jobs was known to be nasty and unreasonable.

* RMS is notoriously difficult person.

* Theo de Raadt is really something (OpenBSD, OpenSSH, NetBSD)

* Ulrich Drepper (glibc, ...)

Above examples are outspoken SOB's. There is another case
of engineering leaders who use passive aggression and 'niceness' to rule in a way that can become very unwelcoming.

People have to lead with the personality they have. Management can be leaned and management
style can be changed. Leadership skills are tied to personality.
Well said.

Also, some European countries do have better democracies than the US. It horrifies me that the China is now basically becoming another US in so many aspects of the society. But it seems to be very hard to stop now. I can only hope that the European countries can preserve their democracy longer. I dunno.
I don't agree. A generic "well-established creators monetize their fanbases" is still hurt quite badly by charging 40 cents per creator per month. The misunderstanding was much deeper/dumber.
In the United States, dishwashers are typically hooked to the hot water line. It is common that our water is heated with natural gas, which is significantly cheaper than the electric heater in the dish washer.

As dishwashers reduced their water consumption, (old ones might be 12 gallons, new ones are about 4 gallons), the amount of fill water which is "cold, before the water gets hot" increases. A dishwasher probably adds water at least twice, so that is two cold flushes in that 4 gallons.
I don't mention my family in an interview unless the interviewer mentions their own family. I've had a couple of instances of (possibly) agism in interviews, and I am doing my best to get hired.
The process for submitting patches probably has an even larger deterrent effect than the personalities: http://nickdesaulniers.github.io/blog/2017/05/16/submitting-...

I think I saw a quote from Linus that this is a good filter for non-serious contributors, but it is an additional barrier for anyone who might want to get involved.
Kids? Just say no:

https://aeon.co/essays/having-children-is-not-life-affirming...
It's rather that banks foreclosed on houses that weren't in default for long enough to warrant forclosure. And that they skipped due process and didn't actually make sure they were properly forclosing.

There's the famous John Oliver sketch regarding a bank that tried to forclose on a house that didn't even have a mortgage. And then when the people tried to collect their legal fees, the bank wouldn't pay, leading them to foreclose on the bank.

In addition, many of the mortgages that were issued should never have been done so. They deliberately and knowingly issued mortgages that they knew were far more risky than they actually were.
At least in this thread, the view that his ranting is pointless is in the minority. Most projects don't have the the same constraints and pressures that Linux faces - including IBM, Intel, Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm all wanting to commit code that benefits their company, but not necessarily the Linux kernel. Linus taking a firm stance on quality helps, I think.
Edit: Before you downvote read the paragraph at the end please.

True story: I didn’t want kids. I knew I was selfish and didn’t want to ruin kids. But one day I pondered Psalm 127:3-5. I reasoned that if God called children a blessing then who am I to call Him a liar?

I’m glad I believed that promise. It’s not been what I feared at all.

Those verses say:

Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
the fruit of the womb a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth.
Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them!
He shall not be put to shame
when he speaks with his enemies in the gate. (ESV)

Hey downvoters: You don’t have to agree with my reasons. The OP asked why and I answered. Be a little open minded would you?
It most probably wasn't a limitation so much as a convention carried over from one generation of technology to the next in order to ensure the adoption of the latter.
He does not have a "toxic personality". Have you ever watched a talk of his?

Other people are the opposite: Exquisite manners in writing, self-absorbed assholes in person.
OP here. Thanks for taking time to reply. Really thank you.

Obviously I know very little about these areas and that is why I posted such a question. By posing this question, I didn't mean that I wanted to 'get there' quickly. In fact I am in no hurry and willing to go as deep as possible.

What I actually mean to ask is that I was looking for a kind of syllabus/crash courses so that I can get an idea about what kind of mathematics is involved in these areas. Based on that, I'll be able to start my studies in much more organized way. Also, from there on, I myself be able to figure out how to look for further resources. This is the style of learning I usually follow.

Hope you understand my point.
The GDPR specifically states that any processing of EU citizens personal / private data

essentially two huge things come out of GDPR - personal data about a EU citizen belongs to that citizen, and if you process data about an EU citizen even if you are out of the EU, you are covered by this law (extra-territoriality)

These are huge forward thinking political steps. they do get this stuff. I just think the deletion part is a mis-step
I understand that the adoption process is a big pain. But compared to the massive physical strain on the body of the mother and the risk of death / debilitating injury / birth defects / trauma of losing a pregnancy / risk of postpartum depression etc etc etc, I really can't understand how that could possibly even compare to dealing with an annoying and slow bureaucratic process.
Dark matter and dark energy are both fudge factors to explain gravitational observations that don't make sense. Dark matter corrects for the speed distribution of stars around galaxies and dark energy for cosmological expansion. The observations here collect indirect observations of dark matter via a different method and postulate that the discrepancies from what was predicted may obviate the need for dark energy. (Disclaimer: I am not an astrophysicist)
There are some fun systemic probabilistic attacks based on peer discovery.

One such principle which doesn't need many attacking nodes, rely on peers self-clustering themselves over time is the following :

You divide the peer network in 2 groups. Using a few number of attacking nodes, when a peer from one group ask you for a node you know, you answer with a peer from the same group. Then each peer from each group is more likely to recommend a peer from the same group.
Over time bias accumulate, and cluster forms, with very few bridges between the two groups which you control.

Obviously it can be mitigated easily by adding some hard-coded "central" nodes or monitoring the network.

Afaik robust peer discovery in p2p network is still not solved.
The "choice" to have children is the lizard part of the brain at the task its been optimized for the last 500 million years, reproducing.

Some people try to rationalize the choice, but it is a primal driving force. It can also been seen as the desire to have sex. Although in some configurations there are less than optimal results.
Cancer survival rates are suprisingly tricky to measure. If I'm diagnosed with an incurable cancer 5 years before it kills me Vs diagnosed 3 months before hand then scenario 1 looks better in the cancer stats but scenario 2 is better for my peace of mind and probably avoid me having to have a bunch of superfluous medical procedures over the 5 years.
DINK life is nice until your social circle is filled with people with kids. You can hang with younger couples, sure, but it wears out fast. The opportunities to hang with people your own age at some regular frequency greatly diminishes (cuz they are tired and have to deal with kids). There is nothing wrong with this - you can splurge on travel and self-development, retire way earlier, or what have you; totally fine and rewarding. It comes down to what you value (I like playing sports and video games with my son more than hanging out with grownups).
I would argue that China is just becoming like another US, which is depressing. The US is just a plutocracy and is hardly much more democratic than China. Some European countries do have better democracies. I can only hope that they are able to last for a while still.
>Banking has changed, perhaps permanently. It is less profitable and by many measures less risky than before.

Banking has "changed" many times before. But these incidents keep happening. The dot-com bubble, the Great Depression, and currently the student loan crisis, municipal debt crisis and subprime auto loans.
Life finds a way
I find the easiest way to think about this trick is to consider the CPS transformation of a depth-first traversal of a tree (in the case of a general graph, you use a DFS spanning tree). At each recursive call, you need to be able to produce and store the continuation upon return. Upon returning from a recursive call, you need to rematerialize the continuation.

The object pointer for the most recent continuation is stored in a global variable, and others are stored in a stack constructed by using pointers in objects that can now be inferred from the stacking nature of the recursion.

Part of the information for the code pointer for the most recent continuation is stored in the object pointer, i.e. from the object header you narrow the possibilities to process it. For an object containing N fields, you need log_2 N bits to store the field you were last processing. Since each object can appear in at most one stack frame of the recursive traversal (modulo where you put the marked check to bail out in the graph case), you need to put these log_2 N bits somewhere in the object.

You have a few options for where to put the bits:

- Find a few bits lying around where you can store them. This works pretty well for objects with few fields.

- Add an extra field with log_2 N bits to store them. This is the most straightforward solution for a larger object with an arbitrary number of fields.

- If you have an easy way of locating object headers from internal pointers, you can use internal pointers as your back pointers.

- Steal a few bits from every field that has a pointer value stored in it. This works because you actually only need log_2 M bits where M is the number of fields containing a pointer. The non-pointer fields can all be skipped.

This scheme can be generalized to implement arbitrary structural recursion on polynomial datatypes:

Is that true though? It’s very socially unacceptable to publicly admit you regret having kids, not to mention very damaging for the child if they found out. There have been anonymous forums (Reddit AMAs come to mind) where people have admitted they regret having kids.
Funny how you you complain about evidence-based debates proceed to mischaracterize the U.S. based on your impressions.

Americans are not all of the same opinion. They do not all use the same arguments which have the same faults. In this they are like all people everywhere. Also, their political parties do not all employ the same arguments with the same faults. Arguing that everyone has the same faults is both-siderism. It is a counsel of despair. In fact, each party will use facts and international comparisons when doing so supports their preferred policy.

The Democrats have been quite fond of international comparisons in support of their efforts to improve healthcare. I struggle to find a topic on which Republicans prefer facts to mythology but they certainly grab onto a fact when it supports what they want to do. They can recognize and employ a good argument if it presents itself.

If you hear someone making a stupid argument, regarding health care or whatever, nine times out of ten it is not because they desire a worthy thing and are too stupid to get it but because they desire an unworthy thing and are crafty enough to recognize a plausible cover story. You can recognize this happening when someone drives for a constant goal but changes arguments as suits the moment. Republican arguments for lowering taxes fit this pattern as do arguments for not doing anything about climate change.

It isn't the stupidity of politicians, or even their voters, that explain American policy. It's disharmony within the nation mixed with political institutions that expect people to work toward a common purpose.
"Rods from God"
Might be of interest to discuss other systems as well. I'm somewhat familiar with the system in South Korea:

- There's a National Insurance System that all citizens are signed up to at birth.

- Premiums are based on income with employers splitting the cost 50:50. Low income/unemployed people go on a slightly different but substantially similar plan with no premiums.

- Prices for procedures are nationally set and fixed.

- Hospitals and Doctors are generally private, but must accept the National Insurance.

- Patients pay a co-pay and doctors bill the National Insurance system for the full price.

- The National Insurance plan only covers a set of elective procedures. Unelective procedures are payed for out of pocket, or by private supplementary insurance (which are also quite popular). e.g. if you have cancer you can go with the prescribed National Insurance treatment and it's covered, or you can go with other treatments which the private hospitals are more than happy to provide.

- Upside: people go to the doctor early and often and as a result South Korea has some of the best medical outcomes in the world (with a few exceptions). The robust private hospital system brings in medical tourists for a wide variety of medical procedures at low prices. If you're in the Hospital and want better care than the National Insurance covers, and you have the money, your class of care options is virtually unlimited. Fewer bankruptcies than the U.S. and <7% of GDP is spent on healthcare. System is considered among the best in the world.

- Downside: The system tends to favor simpler problems that can be handled in an assembly-line fashion. Doctors need to see huge numbers of patients to make a living, so bedside chat time is very limited (but in practice it's about as much time as I see my doctor in the U.S.). Doctors over recommend procedures and tests to get the insurance money.

- Paradox: Because doctors are payed per procedure, but the procedures are limited, they tend to oversubscribe labs and imaging. This means that there are about 3x as many hospital beds and imaging machines than the U.S.

- Source: Visit South Korea semi-frequently, been sick there. Even not being insured (thus paying out of pocket) the cost was far lower than my insured care in the U.S.
I doubt anyone chooses to have children in the sense you are thinking. The biological urge and societal pressure is so huge it is almost always a question of when not if.

Can I suggest a better question would be "why did you choose to have more children?" And did the reasoning change from n+1 to n+2 ...
I don't think this applies to division by zero.

But I expect that in general, for most things humans consume, as efficiency has increased, consumption has increased too.
As best as I could tell (IANAC), the paper is looking at the distribution of dark matter halos and how it compares to predictions from our models of the growth and evolution of the large scale structure of the universe (the LCDM model). This model also encodes our limited understanding of expansion.

They found less dark matter halos than predicted (with large error bars, though), which means the LCDM model may need some work.
In practice, if you get something like this wrong and are forced to debug it, you will probably have to do some code inspection or printf debugging to find the cause. But it's still better than most concurrent GC algorithms in that regard.
This phenomenon has ruined amazon reviews entirely.
I've always felt that the people more inclined to have children had no big devouring passion, this kinda confirms it. Which is worrying because I feel my partner is in that category, and I'm not.

Xi is actively giving more power to the market. In fact he's been compared to Ronald Reagan. It's just that he indeed implements quite a lot of surveillance measures as well. China is becoming like the US in a lot of aspects. Is the US society a shambles? Of course. But even with the rise of Trump people can hardly see a "disaster" or a major upheaval coming. The established interest is just way too strong.

The Chinese leadership is much smarter and pragmatic than many western media and elites would imagine them to be. Doom-sayers have been there for a few decades, but China is still booming.
Yes I have read his comment and added a reply there. To reiterate my point, I asked for crash courses not because I wanted to make quick progress but because I wanted to have an idea of what kind of mathematics is needed. In a way I was looking for some syllabus with some description added.

Thank you for posting these links. I'll definitely go through these.
Application monitoring with Prometheus
Is it? The opportunity cost of that $2.5B is what to compare to. You could have acquired instagram for half that, for example.
That being said, I have found the process to be the most fulfilling of my life. It has helped that we have made enough money to keep us comfortable and allow our children to attend private schools, daycare, etc.

There is a balance, many of my sons don't really have a relationship with their fathers. Seems to be less of an issue with my daughters friends. I suspect I could have a much larger net worth if I had worked more. But I am glad I made the choice of spending as much time with my kids as I could.
I imagine someone at Ralings ”refining” the process and then placing bets for the season on number of homers or some other metric that would payoff.

If it is in fact a variation, one should be able to create a subscription service that sends out regular testing results on the balls, along with bets that capitalize on the information asymmetry.
Do you really consider having kids and adopting to be interchangeable? I am asking honestly.
I think it is hard to raise a kid, and adoption makes it much much harder (opinion based on anecdata)
"Duress of circumstances" is available as a defence for anybody accused of a crime. I would presume that would cover many cases of undercovers committing minor crimes to maintain their covers in threatening circumstances.

I'm not aware that it's ever been a real issue, eg. I'm not sure if there's any suggestion of Bob Lambert being prosecuted for his alleged involvement in firebombing Debenhams.

Edit: I'm a bit confused about what the actual legal implications of this "guidance" are. IIUC it's about guidance given to MI5 agents, as such I suppose in theory the legal implication is that if they commit "authorised" crimes they could argue in court that it's their employer's responsibility.
Everything is awesome except the sex which only happens about once a month and half the time results in... dissatisfaction, so I’m on the fence when it comes to such a massive commitment, but leaving her would close to kill me so... Maybe it doesn’t matter since sex seems to take a massive backseat after the kids show up?
That’s interesting that you feel that way. I am not trying to diminish your belief. Clearly it is true for you.

However for me, having children is the most profoundly selfish thing I can imagine. Creating another person to give myself fulfillment and purpose. Especially considering how difficult climate change and AI will make life for the next generation or two, I feel morally compelled not to have children.

However, as I said, I recognize your experience is different. It’s interesting how different.
Ask HN: Any aspiring developers want a mentor?
I had a really hard time finding a job after completing a coding bootcamp, and I know others must be enduring the same challenges. Companies are starving for engineers, but don't want to take risks on unproven talent, nor train someone and have them leave for more money once they can carry their own weight. I needed more guidance and more direction than I had access to. Well, now that I've made it out the other side and found a great SE job, I want to help others get jobs much faster so they don't have to go through what I did.

What I'm hoping to provide:

1. Direction towards what you need to learn and resources I
found valuable.
2. Someone to ask questions when you get stuck.

3. Occasional code reviews.

4. If I have multiple mentees, then I can connect you together so you can work on group projects.

5. General job hunting and career advice.

What I'm hoping to get out of this:

1. Network connections in the industry.

2. Help my company recruit hidden talent.

3. Social connections.

What I DON'T want:

1. Your money.

I live in Silicon Valley, so preference will be given to people who are local, but I think I can mentor people remotely. I hope that my mentees will eventually be able to mentor people themselves, and we can build out a large network that we can all use to advance our careers and even find startup cofounders.
