2) it only allows you to send emails from the different accounts.

>Doesn't software like databases that care about this already assume the OS flush return values are bogus?

The best a database can do is prevent corruption. It cannot magically prevent data loss of writes that have never reached the platter or NAND.

>And it still doesn't solve the problem of the host buffers disappearing. What's the scenario, the host experiences a power-loss, but was somehow anticipating it and managed to stop writing to the SSD?

You solve the problem of host buffers disappearing by using fsync. The scenario is that fsync works correctly on powerloss.

Imagine you build an app consisting of 3 microservices. They are called Human, CPU and Disk.

The human sends a request via a website to the CPU. The CPU wants to save the host buffer in a database and sends a fsync request to the Disk. The Disk sends an "OK" response immediately but actually saves the data in the background. The CPU sends an "OK" response to the human. Everything is fine. Suddenly powerloss happens and the disk cannot save the data in time. The database is smart, it knows how to reconstruct some of the data until the point where the transaction log has been cut off. Beyond that though the data is gone and the "OK" sent to the Human is no longer valid.

Now imagine the same scenario with correct fsync. The CPU waits for the Disk and during a powerloss not only is the disk dead but the CPU is dead too and it therefore cannot send an "OK" response to the Human.

What if you don't use fsync? What if you pipe your data to /dev/null? Well, here is the tough news: Nobody can help you. If you don't write data to disk then it's gone.
I’m still having trouble imagining an application where you would need ContinentLists in different spots without some well-defined arrangement of them in the Redux state where each can be identified by something more concrete than a random ID.

> What explains the gulf between most Americans’ hopeful outlook on areas and institutions they know directly and their despair about the country they know only through the news?

In their anthropological foray, they notice that people generally get along with local people in local contexts. That's certainly true.

A lot of the acrimony, tribalism, and fear comes from the growing divisiveness of American culture at large.

The fact that The Atlantic needs to don some pith helmets and mix with the locals is itself indicative of the problem. Kudos to the authors for actually doing so, but these aren't migrants trying to learn how to be American. These are people born and raised in America who are somehow on the outside of what The Atlantic considers to be America.

> There is of course evidence that this has happened, in the form of the bigotry that has been unleashed since 2017.

And, ironically, The Atlantic ignores the bigotry [1] it contributes to the situation. The Kevin Williamson incident [2] is very recent and is literally a failed attempt to actually include different kinds of perspectives in The Atlantic. And it seems the institutes of journalism aren't exactly interested, in general, in doing the journalism to accurately represent Williamson's views on the matter [3]. By the way, Kevin Williamson is from these places and writes with a unique take on how these places are and how they could be better.

So when you live in these places and you see hatred for people like you, how are you supposed to be optimistic and excited about the prospects for your children and grandchildren?

It's the same in Europe though. The hospital will send a bill to the insurance company (usually there is one default and you can switch your children to another any time) in the name of the child.
> But one has to wonder, what is the point of arguing at that level when, as the article states, the pollution where the buses are deployed is significantly less?

Pollution where deployed isn't the issue, overall pollution is (the main impact of CO2 is climate change on a global scale). Significant reductions in pollution are to be celebrated, but it's wrong - and takes away from your point - to emphasise something as "zero emission" when it isn't.

The title _is_ inaccurate.

Java SE 8 business users do not need to buy a licence to keep using Java from January next year. That's not true. It's false. They can keep using the current versions of Java 8 as long as they like, for free.

What won't be free is for Oracle to give them new updated versions of Java 8.

This has _always_ been the case. Oracle always stops supporting old Java releases at some point. Do you think they should maintain them forever for free?
Valuable, shows the entire thing in a glimpse. Thanks mate!
The latest version of SymSpell (by the author of that blog post) handles compound words too, so it's pretty capable along with speed.

https://github.com/wolfgarbe/SymSpellCompound/blob/master/RE...

I'm certainly not knocking that achievement, but the two issues I ran into fairly quickly were:
1. It (currently) doesn't handle words that are genuine words but which are contextually wrong
2. You need a high quality dictionary that's also well aligned with your domain or you'll have poor corrections (this last point is merely a matter of effort, so less of a concern)
> May I ask you why you chose to use the normal distribution in your example or any distribution at all, for that matter?

The distribution is not important, any other data generator would do.

> Which means that the null hypothesis is always true no matter what data you collect trying to reject it.

The idea behind the thought experiment was that we live in a world in which researchers always investigate things that will turn out not to exist / be real, but the researchers themselves don't know this!, otherwise they wouldn't bother to run the investigations in the first place.

> In fact, in your example, since you are essentially running 1000 hypothesis tests on different samples, multiple hypothesis correction would solve the "problem" with p-value.

They're not multiple tests. They're multiple simulations of the same test, to show how the test performs in the long run.

Perhaps you're a wonderful statistician, I wouldn't know, but nothing you have said thus far about null hypothesis significance testing makes any sense or is even remotely correct.

> Number 2: No One Believes Anyone Can Actually Code

It's about the level and structure of your code. They don't think you _can't_ code, they want to know how _well_ you code.

When I'm interviewing people I let them solve a simple problem as well - it doesn't need to work, it doesn't need to be perfect. I just want to know where the interviewee stands. Case in point - I've had a young-un just out of school in for an interview and his code was clean, commented and had structure.

On the other hand I've had an older bloke in with roughly ten years of experience as a programmer. His code was an absolute mess from start to finish with K&R-style initialization etc.pp.

That is why I want to see how they approach and what code they produce - someone may have been writing code since they were born, but if they never went through a review their code will likely be bad.

> Number 3: Coding Tests Can Trip Up Even Good Engineers

That is true, hence a coding test should not be measured on the completion but rather on the approach the interviewee took.

> Number 10: You’ll Never Really Know Why You Weren’t Hired

True and bad. I dislike companies who don't give the applicants feedback - or even worse false feedback. Much like in a review - if all you hear is 'no, wrong, bad, ...' you won't improve. You need explanations to single out the issues you can work on (primarily in the short term).
I was both happy but not surprised to see autism pop up in relation to this. I was recently diagnosed and a key part of it is over-sensitivity and misinterpretation of bodily sensations.

I've always been 'overly' aware of my heartbeat and it has caused me distress, but since wearing a Fitbit 24/7 and being able to see that, no, it's not off the scale, things have improved. I guess that's a sort of very lightweight, passive version of what's going on in this research. Beta blockers have also proven to be very efficacious as a way of breaking out of cycles of worry/response.

The IBM iSeries, or whatever its latest names is, has 128bit software pointers, with 65bit HW pointers, where the extra bit indicates whether the value has been tampered with in userland. AFAIR, checks are still all implemented in software, by relying on a runtime trusted code generator.
Ok, you seem to accept that there is an assumption that the data is generated by a distribution with a mean, so start with that. This is not necessarily true: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy_distribution

I use that only as an example. If you look closer you will find many other assumptions being made as well that are used to derive the actual calculation (for whatever statistical test you choose to look at).

Why would immigrants move to where they're not wanted?

Also, how is the desire to maintain a common identity in your small town racist?

Many of our country's rural trends are a pushback against multiculturalism, which pushes the idea that there is no right or wrong way to live as long as you don't hurt other people. Common languages, religions, norms, customs, and beliefs simply don't matter. But how can a sense of community form when you can't even talk to your neighbors? Why is this pushback being met with cries of racism?

What does it mean: "business users of Java SE 8 will no longer receive public updates for the software after January 2019", "Those using Java for individual, personal use, will continue to have the same access to Oracle Java SE 8 updates as they do today through at least the end of 2020.".

the need for CO2 is extremely low, why is carbonating drinks even referenced whenever carbon capture is mentioned?

the amount of CO2 absorbed in the drink will be released upon opening the drink, or else burping or farting.

the amount of CO2 the plants in a green house absorbs is offset by atmospheric CO2 not absorbed by the plant...

yes CO2 has niche uses, but whenever I see people mention CO2 utilization in the context of emissions reduction, it instantly unmasks their lack of knowledge.

The idea that we simply capture it at the chimney, and then bring it to where we need it is in fact very similar to the thought process in a perpetuum mobile.

consider pure graphite as a model of coal, you can burn it, which binds 2 oxygens for each carbon atom, now we capture the CO2, strip the oxygens, and cram all the carbon atoms together into a neatly disposable clump... the burning releases an amount of energy, the reverse process takes at least the same amount of energy.

in the form of CO2 its just incredibly voluminous or incredibly pressurized or incredibly cold to keep stored.

sure you can pump it underground, but the CO2 will still diffuse... then we are just obfuscating the dump

the capture technology is useful if you power it with nuclear or windmills in case CO2 levels and global warming get out of hand. but it is not useful to capture CO2 from the power plant. it is better then to generate the energy with either renewables or nuclear directly.

It's bad enough to be worried that you might have skin cancer, then to worry so much about the cost that you don't go see the doctor can only compound the issue.

I would guess (and don't know) that if you had super amazing insurance then maybe it covers all these unexpected extras. But for those that do not have that level of cover the decision must go something like:

I'm worried that this mole looks bad,

if I go and see a doctor then I might get a nasty bill,

but if I don't go and see a doctor then it might get worse and when it does I'll have no choice but to go,

oh and the cost of the treatment could bankrupt my family

>Or they'll no longer be entitled to updates and bug patches

They aren't converting a free product into a paid one. As I understand you can use whatever you're using right now, it's just that you won't get free updates.

IIRC Microsoft does this with old versions of Windows. Want updates for XP? Pay us and we'll support it with bugfixes.
Or don't pay us and get your support on 3rd party forums.

Sorry, I might be a bit wrong. I thought non-business users wouldn't get free updates too.

Not really, you had to have an Oracle account to have access to legacy JDKs and sign an agreement that you were aware of the security issues of relying on outdated releases.

What they are doing is stepping up the challenge of insisting in e.g. using Java 1.4 in 2018 (Yes I do know a few such cases).

>Not sure what the parent comment meant but maybe because software jobs will start to move to lower earning locations. I've been wondering about this. Manufacturing has largely moved off shore over the last 40 years but software seems much easier to move. Could the whole industry disappear from the first world at a much faster rate?

Well, this has largely happened. And no, if you think that has happened 15 years ago, it isn't.

Outsourcing shops that do work for first tier dotcoms today are a head above anything you saw back 15 years ago with "will code for food" sweatshops.

What is happening is that these are not the "code for food" shops that are displacing Western workforce, but companies that genuinely do "real stuff" and pull high class projects better than their Western clients can even hope to do.

They get that not because they are cheaper, but because they are better than SV at large.

The reason why Western markets are not in firm grips of Asian IT giants yet, but in Facebook/Amazon/Google is not the influence of market forces. Otherwise, they would've been steamrolled long ago.

Then you need to acquire the certificate yourself. Or just use a self-signed certificate since it's your own machine....
When the engineers start earning more in tech oriented cities like Shenbu or Bongai where ever, the shops and landlord charging more, houses become more expensive, living costs rise, which makes engineers start demanding higher salaries, which then starts a feedback loop of rising prices.

I don't see how this really solve this attack. Like, it solves the specific way they did it - standing up their own DNS server on the IPs they've started advertising - but really, all they have to do is announce the IP(s) that are in the DNSSEC signed records. Then you're still getting the traffic, and nothing has thrown any red flags on the DNSSEC side because nothing has changed as far as DNS goes.

The problem is that when you can hijack the routing for an IP there's nothing that can realistically be done with how the internet works today to protect again it. Basically every system of validation requires you have access to some outside authority that can verify authenticity, and if you can announce the route to those IPs to your own infrastructure, you can fool the validation.

There’s No App for Justice
I felt the english version was ambiguous so I read the original finnish version. It says that press reports that the trial is aborted earlier than planned is false, and for the time being there is no decision to extend it.
Pretty much my experience. Been like this on and off though. On a dumb phone for about a year, then got a smart phone for a year, realized it's a distraction, back to the dumb phone. And yes, the only dissatisfaction is not having a camera with me all the time. So what I ended up doing is actually carrying the smart phone (with very few apps and no SIM card) around whenever I think like I might want a camera. Sure, it's harder with 2 phones than with one, but it's still lighter than phone + camera. This seems to work best. I sometimes still check instagram when I'm on wifi, or listen to music, but really not much else. The addiction seems to be gone when I decide that the phone is really just a camera that also lets you post to IG when you have a nice picture and you're on wifi.
