That looks excellent. Handling personal data is something that services should prefer not to do and if requests like this are a "nightmare" then hopefully the web will become a better place again.
Nor do small startups have to fear request traffic that's in any way comparable to what a big company can expect.
I flag them even though I don't like Trump often because the posts (and comments) are often poor quality and political news is already ubiquitous pretty much everywhere else on the Internet so I don't feel bad being a little stricter on it here.

Interestingly, "most stories about politics" is one of the example of off-topic in the guidelines so I think there is just a general sentiment against political news here
>there's little reason to expect it won't

There are huge reasons to expect it won't. It's not like Saudi Arabia just woke up one day and decided to trade in dollars because the dollar was strong. It was part of an agreement where the US promised military aid and supplies.

There are exceptions for some purposes, and I won't be surprised if governments try to stretch those as far as they can, but in general GDPR applies to governments as well.
A 30-minute downtime? I'm surprised there's no mention of backup generator capacity. I assumed this is a requirement for all fabs?
Nope. It’s stated in their acceptable use policies.
How I develop features for my side project
Why does america fight so hard against providing workers with fair wages? Don't you think your neighbours are worth even the minimum that is required to have a dignified life? Serious question…
A £10 fee for a ridiculous fishing expedition which would likely require at least one person-day of work, with that person probably being a knowledgeable and key employee?

A $1000 fee would seem a little bit more fair.
Did my insurance costs go down when companies started gathering and storing my personal information? I figure, if this stuff starts costing them more than a token amount, they can direct their IT manager to systematically erase the personal information that isn't utterly vital to their immediate business needs.
Then they either shouldn't process private data or should only work with services that can provide such information. No one needs to process personal data - if you don't the answer is a matter of seconds.

I mean the fact that it does is the problem, and it shouldn't be on managers to fix it. You're lonely, your problem.

The funny thing is, for all your cynicism, the world is actually far bleaker than even you paint it. A manager sees being friends with your cow-orkers as a lever to extract unpaid overtime.
> Fancy type systems are not a substitute for understanding the thing you're reasoning about.

And now you got me wondering about all the times I wrote a Haskell type, some bugged code, mindlessly changed code until the compiler stopped complaining, and it worked flawlessly.

But I guess your comment was about that "writing the types" stage. There were a few times I mindlessly wrote them too based on where they would be used (I could have the compiler give me them, but I'm not used to it). I can remember a few times I did both on the same functions, mindlessly write the types and the implementation.
Or you are an early-stage startup with just a couple founders trying to do everything.
Try building a successful mobile app without supporting iOS. That’s monopoly.

Furthermore, people are using mobile devices way more than computers now. So even if Microsoft was a monopoly in the past, they aren’t any longer.

Of course. My belief is that if you ram your car into a stationary object, regardless of the conditions, you're at fault. Either you weren't paying attention or you were driving too fast for conditions.
Barmah makes hats in very large sizes. I wear a canvas one in the winter (great for keeping snow off your neck) and a mesh one in the summer (avoid sunburn, keep the breeze).
This only works in specific cases (namely those where dynamic programming algorithms suffice), and does not avoid the recursion limit in general.
Entrepreneurship is a 24*7 job. You must be prepared for it. Now through blogging generating money works no doubt, but one thing you must understand whatever you do you need patience and perseverance.

I think you need to start with your own SWOT analysis and understand your self first. Then pick one good idea from your dozen of ideas and do SWOT analysis of it too. Think it is viable and good thing to do or not, also listen to your intuition.

Then you must go for a business plan, even if you plan to generate business only through your blog. Try to execute the plan and evolve as you go along.

All the best.
Your code is still allocating a new stack frame anyway. So no optimization is happening. You are simply avoiding a stack overflow which is not the purpose of tail-call optimization.

I'm not sure if there is any advantage when language/compiler does not provide a proper tail recursive optimization.
or it was made to clip, but someone else fixed a bug that was caused by clipping, so he disabled clipping, causing this bug
That would be great, especially as it doubles as an annotation/assertion that TCO is both expected and required at that specific point in the code.
The GDPR applies as much to a startup or side business as it does to Facebook and Google.

A letter like this would be a hugely disproportionate burden to a small business like that. It would take many hours, if not days, to reply properly to all of those points, even for a business that is doing nothing shady or unusual.

You can't just write "automate it" as if that has no cost.
Found the Apple fanboy. I get it, their stuff is nice (and I own many products) but it is obviously one of their many bugs.
Ask HN: Next steps for scaling a scikit-learn Flask ML API
We currently have an internal API that's core to our business. The models are loaded as .pkl files with scikit-learn joblib and served via Flask w/ Gunicorn using Gevent. We've tried Tornado as a worker class and Cherrypy as a replacement for Gunicorn -- none produce significant performance benefits.

We're hosting it in a Kubernetes cluster with really large nodes (140GB). Each container user ~5GB of RAM And considering the response time (~750ms), we can only add about 30 req/sec for each node we add ($1.5k). It appears the single request is CPU bound make it difficult to widely scale.

This is cost prohibitive and feels like we need to move towards other tools/approaches.

As the person who's managing the infrastructure, I'm less familiar with the current eco-system of larger-scale tooling. Ideally, the next iteration would keep the HTTP transport layer to allow for minimal changes to the rest of the system.

What would be a logical next step for us to scale the existing scikit-learn/Flask API?
My parents are Vietnamese. My dad actually fought in the war with the South Vietnamese army alongside US troops. He's a lifelong Republican, as were all of his brothers who also fought, as well as the vast majority of his friends and their families who arrived as refugees.

They supported the war. They saw the US as liberators against the communists who wanted to murder them and take over their country. They love America and despise communist Vietnam. They wish the US had finished the job.

Promoting things like the link above and conveniently omitting the pure savagery of the Viet Cong, Ho Chi Minh, and the communists from the North is pure propaganda. It's always puzzling to me what types of topics journalists choose to run.

Instead of listening to journalists reporting on Vietnam from half a world away, you should visit Little Saigon in Southern California and Northern California and ask them how they feel about America and the Vietnam War.

EDIT: Since I have a post limit and I can't reply below, I'll reply here.

quan: I didn't say My Lai was propaganda. I said emphasizing My Lai over the several atrocities committed by the communists, including the systematic murders of those who opposed communism, is propaganda.
First, I don't understand why you need to "stop on a dime" to avoid a stationary object ahead?

Second, a huge part of safely operating any vehicle in an environment (especially a chaotic one you share with cars, bikes, and pedestrians) is awareness of your surroundings and the ability to avoid collisions. This is seriously driving / biking 101.

If you are zooming around on your bike and just thinking "hope no objects / people / cars are sitting stationary in my way because there's no way I can stop and I'll definitely hit them", then you're a dangerous menace.
Legislation compliance should be built in as part of your product offering. If you don’t that day’s work is just technical debt you chose to take on immediately.
I've heard about a thing called backups. If arbitrary modifications is your concern, you could hash a certain state or records for easy checks. Also, secure logging is an easy way to record changes.

I don't say that the blockchain is useless, but it's hard to come up with use cases where it's clearly superior than databases.
If it’s done right, there would be no observable difference.
Oh another startup that wants to track-all, profile-all, sell-all the data they can get about me and not even bother with basic information security?

Can't feel too sorry for them
Incidentally the minimum viable products that the early stage startups with two founders are kicking off are the ones that are most likely to put your data at risk. This is fair and just.
What exactly about being a startup makes this a lot harder? I'd expect a startup would in many cases have a fairly easy time answering requests like this, since it won't have built years worth of legacy systems, half-abandoned projects, weird cross-department data accesses etc that could catch a large company here. You'll likely have fairly centralized storage and a reasonable number of service providers you use for specific purposes. + the typical startup has more or less the same relationship with every customer, so it should be fairly easily repeatable once you've documented it once.

For the few small companies I've worked for, this would have been a bit of work once (document the dataflows), and then a fairly easy set of queries to be repeated each time.

I agree. I never find myself with a scenario in which inheritance is useful. I actually started writing a lot of Go (which has no inheritance support) and haven't missed inheritance at all. It really seems like useless complexity.
It's hard to run a profitable business. For some of these services the choice may be between exploiting workers or not brokering work. American culture seems to worship convenience at this time. With the current environment of low unemployment and rising wages, I would expect there to be pressure on these services to increse pay, but how much will the market bear and how much do we want these services?

Or just one of the almost-all companies that never grows beyond a handful of staff, for that matter. People talk about regulatory matters like the GDPR as if all businesses grow to become large, but here in the UK for example, only about 1 in 25 businesses has more than 10 staff.
Technical types seem naively optimistic about how GDPR is going to work out.

Businesses will do enough to pass the sniff test of proper compliance with GDPR, and no more. I've worked with enough to know most mid sized orgs are far too reactive, too technically incompetent, and far too busy making money to do a proper job on adhering. Most flout existing laws already, I don't think they'll be scared of disregarding elements of this too.
The URL has ref=producthunt.
YES! (I at least got to leave and spend time with combat units)

The people who went crazy the fastest were those without "real jobs" (i.e. where contractors did the work and they were still in the force structure but essentially used for undifferentiated tasks). For doctors in (busy) hospitals, aviators, etc., it wasn't as bad.
This might seem fair to the person incurring the direct cost of the response, but is markedly unfair to the person earning minimum wage who is concerned about the handling of their personal data.

The law needs to be applicable to everyone, and imposing high costs is generally considered to do the opposite: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-40727400
Actually, the chief culprit was permitting tens of thousands of fusion-guitar players to enter the empire. My feelings about fusion-guitarists have nothing to do with that fact.

Naturally I use fingerprint/smartwatch authentication throughout my normal day, but once the phone is off, good luck getting access to its contents.
Haskell does not have a recursion limit. You can freely use as much memory as you want via recursion. It doesn’t even really have a stack in the traditional sense. The STG machine does use a stack for evaluation, but it’s often completely different from what you might expect if function calls in Haskell actually necessarily corresponded to C-style functions. There is a default limit to the physical stack size, but it’s something like 512MB and you can change it with a command line flag.

Making a TTS model with 1 minute of speech samples within 10 minutes
Correct, you need to do everything that touches the UI on the main thread. But I never ran into problems that it would lead to frame drops, scrolling frame drops are because too large calculations are done (especially on the main thread) while displaying a new cell. I don't say it's trivial always to do complex stuff in a non-blocking way but if I can do it probably somebody working at Apple can do it too.
Ask HN: What is beyond JavaScript?
I have done JavaScript programming for most of my six years career, with some Ruby here and there. While I do enjoy JS (React, Node), and I'm glad to see the ecosystem getting better and better; I am getting tired of the constant change and how much effort it takes just to keep up with the latest hype.

What are other languages that are as ubiquitous as JS is, but more stable?

I don't have a CS background and I'm interested in alternatives that would have good employment prospects. I don't mind moving away from the browser, languages like Rust or Elixir/Erlang sound interesting but I question how much of a market there is for these skills without a CS background.

What's an example of a start-up collecting personal information, using it in a complex way that can't be summarized in a few paragraphs, but being unfairly burdened by this?

If a start-up is doing things with personal data so that answering those questions takes more than a few paragraphs, isn't the start-up pretty much a personal-information-processing business, and doesn't it deserve to have the burden? Doubly so because start-ups often leave security considerations for later; any personal information they collect or share may not even meet the minimal industry standards and expectations of larger companies (not that such informal standards are adequate—those larger companies are often incompetent themselves).
If you know historians, you'll know they actually squabble like children over stuff like this. Of course, No True Historian would ignore the role of climate in causing radiating invasion waves. Even if it was a cold day making Attila mad, it's still an equal factor.

How Trump Consultants Exploited the Facebook Data of Millions
This seems like structural subtyping? Are these synonyms?
I just read through this "Nightmare Letter" and while the cost is definitely non-zero, a conscientious startup will have the same answer for each user for almost every single point and can have a boilerplate response ready to go in those cases.

Where it gets complicated, i.e. where they buy your data from 3rd parties, I don't have a lot of sympathy for any of the complications involved. Most of the rest can be automated, not for a non-zero cost, but for a relatively low one if a startup goes in with these questions in mind, prepared to answer them when they come up.
'consider leaving a decent tip'
the way for profit businesses underpay their workers and society is expected to make up for that through tipping bothers me so much. The underpaying business owner is richer than 95% of customers who pay extra so the rich guy's worker makes a decent salary.
The tipping culture is abused so much in USA. There are restaurants in Brooklyn that automatically add 18% gratuity charged and still leave space for tipping and the waiter gives you looks if you leave that space blank.
All these gig economy companies are valued in billions and have made millions for their executives and investors but still won't pay a decent salary to their workers and I am supposed pick up that bill?
No thanks

These type of SAR requests (even milder ones) are of course impossible to handle manually. Self-assessment, the way most companies decided to handle GDPR, isn't much help here. How do you automate personal data discovery, especially for already existing data?

Funnily, the biggest fear companies have regarding GDPR and SAR does not originate from "Mr. I. Rate the customer", like in this article. It comes from disgruntled employees ratting on the company. Employees know best where personal data is stored (and often no one else in the company does), so they can really do some surgical damage. GDPR introduces a whole new dynamic.

This may be a good place to shamelessly plug a tech we developed (Show HN!) for automatically locating personal data across corporate resources: https://pii-tools.com

Personal data discovery is but a small piece in the compliance puzzle, but a piece that is critical to understanding what sensitive data is even out there: CVs with photos in backups? Scanned passports in attachments of email archives? Names and addresses in database tables? How about S3, Azure, GDrive?

Let me also add that there's no shame in not having a comprehensive view of all the corporate personal inventory. Larger companies grow their resources organically, through acquiring other companies and separate business units doing their own thing. It is a complex problem, but one where technology can help.
