A regional disk is a logical disk that is synchronously replicated at the block level across exactly two zones within the same region [1]. Since the disks are always identical, with no replication lag, the HA control plane can seamless fail over the whole database to a new master that plugs into the same disk. It's all in the article.

Regional disks aren't publicly available yet, but they are in alpha [2]. Like normal persistent disks, everything is backed by Google's internal Colossus system [3].

The difference, as I understand it, is that third-party code would not be able to snoop on user data in Facebook's native app. In this paper, the third-party JS is able to get itself loaded on the same page as the Facebook user data.

My impression is that local laws, not state laws, make parking in the bike lane illegal in many cases.

In Austin, TX, parking in the bike lane is generally legal unless the signs specifically say it's not. The city has slowly been changing the signs, but there are many bike lanes where parking is perfectly legal.

Yes, amazed at how many local numbers are spam. I get three a lot:

1. Vacation Rewards Center - selling cruises I think

2. Business line of credit - their phrasing make it sound like I called them ("Hey, just getting back to you about that $15k line of credit)

3. Tax scare tactics, trying to settle debt or penalties

I didn't know who feel for this stuff until I talked to an older gentleman who said he got these calls and it took him a long time and encouragement from his friends to know it was a scam.

There's no format as it is; whatever suits the occasion I guess. If you're presenting an engineering design, it is expected that your document conveys the what, the why, and the how—ideally many hows along with pros and cons for each. A good narrative would be data-driven, and not riddled with intangibles.

Where I work now, we went through 2 or 3 rounds of funding. Each round involved lawyers doing due dilligence, checking the licencing of all the software we use, and all the libraries we use, and so on.

No issues were raised regarding Java or MySql. Bottom line, I don't know the difference between this and that license, what I do know is that Oracle licensing for Java and MySql gave us zero grief. For the record, we just use Java and MySql as provided. I can see how Google making their own "Java" for Android can get messy. But that is kind of unusual, who makes their own Java? I know of several vendors, and they usually try and get certification/TCK and so on. Google did not, well, that is Google's problem.

Link Between Muscular Strength and Cognition in People with Major Depression

I believe the issue was repeated stress causing tendons to tear in one leg and one arm. There have been reports that the machinery Tesla uses puts unnecessary strain on the body and the hours this man was working, I can easily see this happening.

The Human Cell Atlas project will certainly yield a tremendous amount of data and define many new cell types. I wonder how much resolution we will get from single cell RNA-seq since technological limitations permit the analysis of genes with high expression. In my experience with single cell analysis we only detect a few thousand genes per cell and many of those are not detected frequently enough to infer their contribution to the cells identity.

That hasn't been my experience during the design our last product. Allwinner was the vendor we had to pass on because their then-best-offering (H5) had poor mainline support and fragile, crappy code in the kernel dump. We decided to go with the slightly more expensive RPi 3B precisely because it had both usable mainline support and the handful of patches in the RaspberryPi Foundation's kernel were much better written and maintained.
> (Once you know this you'll suddenly start to see how a disproportionate share of red cars have failing paint -- particularly after sometime around the early 1980s when the use of Cadmium pigments started to fall out of favor for most uses.)

I believe this has largely been remediated by using a clear coat over solid colors. Older cars had single-stage paint for non-metallic colors, so there would be nothing on top of your nice red paint to protect it. Modern clear coats typically block UV light, so the color should last much longer (long enough that your car will be all scratched and swirled well before the color fades).

I know someone who works as a low level manager at Amazon and I've seen salaries of the average Software developer - for both the salary is like $140-$160K. That's nothing to live in Seattle with the cost of living. You can make that in 1 of 20 other metro areas that I know of with a much lower cost of living and much lower stress. Even when considering the signing bonus and stock, I was never enticed to actually fly out there and interview even after I got through some preliminary phone screens.

There are loads of tools for this, depending on what you need to label (rectangles, tagging, polygons, etc).

Here's one I wrote for my own use: https://github.com/jveitchmichaelis/deeplabel

It's not terribly feature complete (and it's not stable), but it's functional and pretty fast for basic bounding box annotation. My aim was to minimise clicks compared tools like labelimg, and also to have a database that I could work on with changes being stored immediately. Other tools seem to forget where you left off. I also didn't want a dependency on Python or the cloud.

It runs on a sqlite database, so presumably in a shared environment you could actually use it real-time collaboratively. I was doing some labelling for a project with my girlfriend and we simply took turns with the db and images a shared folder in Dropbox.
"Live migration" refers to how Compute Engine transparently migrates a VM to another physical host [1]. Disk and memory is copied over, and they have some ridiculous technology that keeps network connections alive and re-attaches them to the new VM when it's been switched over, so that it causes, in principle, zero disruptions. This is much more magical than other providers, such as AWS and DigitalOcean, where such a migration results in a reboot.

You can run PostgreSQL on a VM just fine. You just have to manage itself. Cloud SQL comes with some upsides (zero management, spectacular HA failover capabilities) and some downsides (lack of extensions, lives on a separate network, no control over maintenance window); you have to decide what you're willing to live with.

You can set the upgrade window, but it can't be predicted. What you can control is the order — e.g. set your staging instance to "early" and production instance to "late", then hopefully staging should be upgraded first and you'll know ahead of the production upgrade if any issues arose.

I always thought that a perception like "it's a tree" that remains stable could possibly be an attractor in a chaotic system. If you look at the trajectory of a particle around an attractor, its position is very unpredictable after a while, but which attractor it is orbiting is not so random or unstable. Thinking of the visual of the Lorenz attractor.
The screens will not give Facebook users the option to hit "decline." Instead, they will guide users to either "accept and continue" or "manage data setting."

Also known as "Hobson's Choice": a free choice in which only one thing is offered.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobson%27s_choice

Naturally the vast majority will just click through and accept the defaults.

But what if a small number does not? Could Facebook see 6% or 4% or 2% attrition because of this?

2% attrition of 2.2 billion users is like the entire population of California and Oregon.

This many people leaving the network makes it a little less connected and a little less valuable for the 98% who remain.

That's a lot of people wandering about, discovering new alternatives to connect with their friends and family.

Facebook will be with us for a long time, but reducing their influence would be a big net positive.

And even for airplanes, it's not that good. All noise canceling headphones I've looked at or owned have a sampling frequency of 21KHz, which is a bit low, and results in high-frequency (if low amplitude) noise that I can hear, and it's annoying or even painful.

I don't quite understand why there are no 44KHz noise-canceling headphones on the market...
Seconded -- we've found them to be excellent road-trip music, too.

"The moment one of those people becomes large enough, Oracle's lawyers will come knocking."

Yes. Can you clarify why you’ve called that out please?
Ask HN: What is the commute from Seattle to Redmond like?
I'll soon be working for a large company near Redmond (guess) and I'll need to decide whether to live in Seattle or right next to the company. The main deciding factor is the commute; I've never had to commute for more than 20 minutes so I don't have a feel for how good/bad a longer commute everyday would be like. Avoiding the commute (and probably higher cost of living) is nice, but I wouldn't want to miss out on the many benefits of living in Seattle (such as the social life there).

Please let me know your experience!

I think Yelp solves this problem fairly well actually. A lot of reviews of a restaurant will mention specific food items to either get or avoid. Yelp also has a tagging feature where if you click on a menu item mentioned in a review, it will bring up all the other reviews mentioning the food.

Although, Yelp has a garbage mobile site and they aggressively force you to download their mobile app (you cant read full reviews without the mobile app) which has turned me off from using them. So I can see where you're coming from. Good luck!

If a government body says it can store a train full of shit just outside your backyard indefinitely, and you disagree, then oh, ah, no - sorry, there seems to be absolutely no legal framework that we can operate within that will get the train removed within your lifetime.

But on the other hand, another government body forgets to protect some electronic documents, and a teenager downloads them just by guessing incremental id:s, then just a phone call later the teen is swatted by 14 cops, and should be so lucky that they didn't even kill the dog. Well they had if there was a dog to kill.

Psychologists or psychiatrists study child development. That's some distance from a "parenting coach", but the coaches probably read the books or study what the psychologists write.

A friend teaches "child development" to 14-16 year olds, in the end they take this [1] exam. It's fairly basic, it mostly deals with babies and infants, but it seems completely reasonable that there's and evidence-based way of dealing with "daddy, there's a monster under my bed".

SCUMM internals and syntax for the sake of nostalgia
I like the idea of doing a code review with someone, and talking through an actual problem, as described in the article.

I've done the whiteboarding, and that was exhausting. I've done programming exercises where I wrote code to some spec, then talked it through with my interviewer; that was a little better.

My first job in 2008 involved about a 15-minute coding exercise, and talking to half a dozen people for about 15 minutes each, mostly just having conversations. That was a relatively nice interview, and a good team to work with for a number of years.
