Hiya, folks! I'm starting this a series of how CTOs and product owners attempt to keep track of all different "contexts" surrounding the same data/product. Spotify is a great example with their supposed C++ master lib.
Even better, hardware authentication token + second factor is password. (something you have, something you know)

See https://github.com/bitid/bitid/

It would also probably be easier/(or at least not harder) for people than username and password. Just tell users to press the button and enter a password to sign in.
We were planning on writing up a blog post to go over what our backend looks like. But essentially we have written a crawler to discover audio on the internet and a distributed processing framework to download, extract metadata, and transcribe the audio.

We've iterated through a few storage solutions and have settled on using GlusterFS+zfs running on Storinators. So far we have about 350TB of data indexed in our collection.

Yes. Just less delusional about the impact my choices have than most people. It's fine to choose to have a kid. But don't fool yourself into thinking you're making a responsible choice when it comes to the environmental impact of doing so.
The way I remember is that 1 year -> 1 tree ring is more like an ideal than reality.

You can have a series of cold summers with no growth or warm winters with continuous growth. Either can lead to many years -> 1 ring. Or you can have multiple warm/cold periods in one year in which case you can have 1 year -> many rings.

As a result the samples that are used for dating need to be carefully chosen, and this has not been done independently of the other sources of data.

I also remember it was difficult to find the raw tree ring data (all the images they tried). What was available was only some final data on ring widths, this made me question their assessment that alignments of the various tree ring datasets could just be due to chance similarities.

The article is a bit misinformative, with the biometrics red herring. Unless I'm mistaken, this is Webauthn, the new standard that will allow devices to authenticate using cryptographic keys that they have generated and stored, it's kind of like supercharged U2F.

Basically, your phone and computer (or USB key) will be able to generate keys and authenticate to each website uniquely, without the possibility of someone stealing your password or phishing it/spoofing the site.

It's a fantastic improvement, imagine if you could log in to a site on any untrusted computer just by plugging your USB key in, and you would be totally secure again after you logged out of the site.
Maybe that particular position is a problem, but there are many software engineers who started out as physicists. Also many data scientists.

I agree that there needs to be a better proxy for understanding this for average users. It certainly is odd to have the container format as the primary bit of information we convey, but it reflects the information gap between users and developers. I believe the reasoning is that the codec should ideally be invisible and irrelevant information to the average user.

How is a user to know he might need to install a special codec to play a video? This is why OS and hardware support across many devices is essential to the success of new formats. This is why the Alliance for Open Media ensures AV1 succeeds across the spectrum of devices available.

That said, I really wish the creators remake these games for the mobile. These kind of puzzle games dont have any of the FPS requirements that today's mobile phones cant handle. The beautiful scenes that Myst was well known for can easily be rendered on a 4 year old phone as well.

But most importantly, touch and gyroscope opens up degrees of freedom that was previously impossible to conceive. Imagine an AR like Myst.

Don't put your email into this unless there is a way to download the database for offline use.

Then it'd go down in the history books as the first time a large public company had done so. We all run on Capitalism, meaning we've picked the generation and acquisition of Capital to be the one metric we've decided as a society to optimise for. This is why it's so important for governments to legislate carbon requirements, because that's the designed escape hatch for capitalism causing people to doing stuff which is very bad for society by optimising for capital.

We can if these policies create more good than harm. Furthermore, even in this example, whether the issue is classism or collateral effects, although people would be quick to scream racism if we replaced "rural" with black, without sufficient evidence of racist intent.

The biggest problem I see with a mindset like this is that the conflation of equality of opportunity with equality of outcome leads to policies which forgo merit to correct imagined racism. And we end up with less competent firefighters, law officers, doctors, lawyers, etc; and by lowering standards to attempt to force equity, all of society is worse off.

In the right states (ie, those who took ACA subsidies from the federal gov), your premiums are based on your income. Low income = low health insurance premiums.

Agreed that a 600k condo is a poor choice; move to a college town where you can get a single family home for $150k-200k and the property taxes are only ~$2-3k/year. Avoid an HOA.

You can retire at any time if your investment income can support your expenses. Think about those expenses carefully. It is entirely possible for a family of four to live off of ~$30k/year if you receive ACA subsidies, your house is paid off (no housing expense), and you have no outlier expenses.

Well, the point is that after the 2000's some new hard disk like devices (including USB sticks and SSD's) have been available and became common in use, making most if not all provisions that were "smart" for rotating media largely meaningless, and the size of rotating media increased so much that the "around the middle of the filesystem" has been a largely moving target.

The "default" settings (including the placement of the $MFT on cluster 786432 or 0xC0000 if you prefer) is clearly something that made a lot of sense on a given size of volume, but having it "hardcoded" as default for any volume larger than around 5/6 GB makes not any real sense, hence I stand by my "queer".

As seen in the given reference, it is possible (and relatively easy) to "move" the $MFT (and other NTFS filesystem structures) to an "earlier" address on the volume, and the NTFS (which as said has been very, very well designed) works and performs just fine.

On the other hand, moving it near the actual "around middle" (on rotating disks) is far from being easy, even nowadays.

What I was pointing out is that after all these years the "format" tool has not evolved allowing directly these kind of changes/offering the user the possibility to finer tune the file system.

In comparing Facebook to newspapers and others scale matters.

Ugh. The X-30! What a boondoggle! Nobody had any idea how to get that done. In every aero/astro engineer's undergrad fluid dynamics class, they teach you about heat addition to subsonic and supersonic flows. The biggest takeaway is that adding heat to a moving fluid destroys total pressure (aka stagnation pressure), the measure of useful work a fluid can do. The amount of total pressure destroyed depends on the amount of heat and the flow velocity. Half the job of a diffuser and/or compressor is to raise the pressure of the incoming flow, but the other half is to slow the flow down so that heat addition can be done without destroying too much total pressure. The very idea of "supersonic combustion," the "sc" in "scramjet," is antithetical to engine efficiency.

At some point,even a theoretical scramjet becomes a drag-producing device, instead of a thrust-producing device. Real scramjets will always crap out long before orbital velocity, which is around M=30.

To end on an optimistic note, dream of a rocket-based combined cycle engine, instead. They may or may not ultimately be viable as SSTOs, but at least there's room to dream, there!
Why sell when your home value is increasing by $292,000 a year and property taxes are not going up? This seems like a very strong HODL time for real estate as an investment.

IMO, you don't even need any arguments beyond #1. Your fingerprint can't be changed and it's public information. You leave traces/copies of it everywhere you go. Just because it's more difficult to read now doesn't mean that technology won't make lifting and reusing your oily prints trivial someday.

Would you create a rubber stamp of your passwords, slather it with oil, and then go around stamping it on everything you own and everywhere you go?

This was a different way of thinking about security rules for us. But basically you have to make everything not readable and not writable at the root and then open up access farther down. And the way you need to structure your data will be affected. You might have a "user" level in the tree but you make a child level "private" readable by the actual user and no one else, like /users/$userId/private. Then you might have a /users/$userId/public that anyone can read, etc.

How were you thinking of it before? This reads to me how Apache servers have been configured for 20 years.
+1 for You Don't Know JS.

But the rest is a bit "all or nothing" isn't it ?

React is a huge bite for a start, espacially since you need webpack. How about something lighter first, like Vue.js ? Once you get how it works, you can up your game and go to React (+ webpack + Mobx, don't try redux at first it's too much) or Angular 2.

As for the backend, you can stay in Python first and do a rest API. Then once you get the front right, write a backend using node AND a framework. Do not attempt to pure JS first, it's like doing web Python without django or flask. Possible, but not worth it. ExpressJS is close to flask in philosophy, except for the asynchronous part.

If you really want to have fun though, checkout crossbar.io.

It's a Python router than allow very easy PUB/SUB and RPC between clients. Clients can be written in JS, Python, Java, C#, etc.

You can even write JS clients in the browser, making push notifications and other real time feature a breeze. It's a good way to give you motivation to try on JS: mix it with what you know, and try a new exciting technology. Plus a good way to see the difference between async in JS and in Python.
Whatever system you come up with, we have to ask these questions:

1. What if I lose my finger/password?

2. What if someone else gets a copy of my finger/password?

In both cases, fingerprints seem to make things worse, not better. The fingerprint is great if someone else has to be present to watch you put your finger down.
