That's because 99% of the time the streaming service for music is better than trying to build your own library. It also seems to have a lot less attribution than video stream right now so people don't have to pay attention to where they can stream a specific song, they can use just about any app and get what they are looking for.
DeferPanic | Senior Software Engineer && Kernel Engineer | ONSITE | $100k - $200k | Full-time |

https://www.deferpanic.com

Ready to hack unikernel infrastructure? Unikernels are widely considered the cloud of the future and we have large paying customers utilizing them in production right now.

Politicians talk about re-building bridges and roads but no one discusses the mess of what software infrastructure is today or the fact that is largely built by systems designed over 40 years ago. It's time to fix that.

The software stack today is completely ludicrous - please help us fix it.

We need both Go Engineers && Kernel Engineers. Whether it's hacking DMA drivers or figuring out what needs to be tweak to scale more than 2000 VMs on a single server we got really nice meaty engineering problems for you to solve. We're currently a small team of highly technical engineers complemented by a highly effective sales team.

We have a large existing Go codebase along with a growing base of C/ASM. Other languages you might find in our codebase - rust/lua.

The opportunity to level up your game is extreme as we are going off the deep end on the technical front.

We are looking for really smart driven engineers - eg: ones that can take charge and code like the wind.

We have quite a few really interesting secret projects going on right now - would love to tell you more when we chat.

We are all on-site in our Townsend office in SF, CA. We currently aren't doing remote. We're customer driven by engineering led.

We run traditional interviews.

Please email engineering @ deferpanic.com &&|| ian@ and secure your spot in the systems company you always wanted to work in.
It's certainly pretty cool to have this support built into the distribution. I think we will have to wait and see how timely updates are in general. Of course, it's all volunteer-based so help is welcome.

Quibbling and language-lawyering aside, this is clearing up a real, fundamental misunderstanding that a lot of people have.

Anecdotally I have encountered loads of programmers who actually believe that there is a straightforward correspondence between C code and what the machine is actually doing, which is wrong.

So regardless of how you want to define "low-level", understanding this point is useful.
The story I remember most vividly was the researcher, Dr Karen Wetterhahn, who despite taking great care spilled one or two drops of dimethylmercury on her latex glove. The glove would prove to be no protection at all - tests later showed the dimethylmercury would have seeped through her glove and skin in less than twenty seconds. Karen began displaying the neurological symptons of mercury poisoning some three months later when it was too late to do anything. She was dead within the year.

Dimethylmercury and hydrofluoric acid are both mentioned in this list of "10 Ridiculously Dangerous Chemicals", https://listverse.com/2016/12/09/10-ridiculously-dangerous-c....
It sounds like I’m this case the sales person said an incorrect price (either on accident or deliberate sales person scummy behavior), so this does seem completely reasonable and good? The alternative seems worse
That would make sense. I believe many apps, including Chrome and Firefox, do the same thing with RAM. If it's there, might as well use it.
> Do you believe that we are manipulated to be addicts?

I believe the companies do their best to try (under the banner of metric-driven "engagement"), but people experience the addiction to varying degrees, with varying degrees of disruption. Some people are certainly more susceptible than others. You see the same thing with substance addiction, an addict can vary from a fully functional smoker to a homeless meth-addict whose lost their teeth.

I think this is true with social media as well. I don't think I'm too susceptible to addiction, but at times I've caught myself getting into habitual use of social media based on some of its reinforcement mechanisms.

In principal, I completely agree with you. I have just found the effort futile. This could be the circle of friends I have are just drawn to this. I see it as a dystopian story unfolding in real time. Then again, I saw the FB campus as highly dystopian and couple of my friends understood why.
Thank you for the explanation! I am still not sure I believe that what you predict would happen to a large degree in the Bay Area.

I agree a land tax would push the owners of vacant lots to develop them. But, the NIBMY owners of single family homes will still fight against the building of new apartment complexes and try to constrain housing supply (to prop up their property values). I certainly would hope that more apartments would be built though!
> HTTPS is required to connect to all .app websites, helping protect against ad malware

Can somebody explain this claim? How does HTTPS protect against malware? Does no malware use HTTPS, so it all gets blocked?
I mean, yes, no, it depends on what you mean?

You can write to null in C, your operating system rejects it. You can write past your allocated memory, your OS rejects it. It's not like just because it's written in C it gets to read the kernel memory - it's just that you can try.

All memory access in userspace is mediated by the MMU, so nothing in C gets "direct" memory access - but it does allow you to screw up your own memory space pretty well... I'm not sure that's C's fault though
This isn't unique to technology, but can easily be seen in politics, sports, religion, etc. It's just not labelled fanboyism in other domains.

My background is not in psychology, but I suspect is boils down to something like "I've made my decision, don't wish to admit I am wrong, and will therefore vociferously defend my position against all comers, as well as attack those who disagree with me."

I would argue that the total set of "good performance" workloads are smaller on a GPU than they are on a CPU.

However, "good performance" on a CPU is much much worse than "good performance" on a GPU. CPU's just achieve their mediocre performance on a larger set of usecases. GPU's are specialized devices that are very good at specialized activities.

I have one story to tell about Ab Initio.

They invited me in for an interview. At the end of the day, they weren't done. So we did another day of interviews. And another.

They interviewed me, phone and in-person, for over 20 hours.

Then we got to discussing what sort of compensation I would require... and then they decided that they didn't want to hire me.

I have a friend there who is pretty happy, but they can't tell me what they do except in the broadest terms.

It's disappointing to see comments like the parent being downvoted. Evidently the situation still isn't clear, because if it were then we wouldn't be having GDPR-related discussions on HN almost daily now where people who are currently dealing with these issues professionally have reached very different conclusions and/or received very different advice.

I think the biggest problem for many of us is still the uncertainty. For all the mountains of "guidance" now being generated by the EU and the national regulators at five to midnight, there is still very little advice provided that is unambiguous and actionable when it comes to some of the most fundamental questions. What does or doesn't constitute a legitimate interest basis for processing data? When is such an interest is or isn't overridden by the subject's own interests? How long would be considered a reasonable period to retain data for common purposes? Answers like "as short a time as possible, but that might be 20 years" simply aren't useful.
Was it blekko? We had a website owner email us about that issue when blekko's ScoutJet crawler was new... although I don't recall the bit about ignored redirect headers.
This is pretty slick AI.
I've gone on rants about this in the past, but I'll keep this one short: it's only expensive if you're purchasing data transfer from cloud providers and paying per-GB.

For an illustrative example, imagine you have a 1 Gbps (gigabit-per-second) transit line that you are saturating at 95% (~972 Mbps) 24/7. Over a month, you will push 312,075 gigabytes (312 TB) over that line. Amazon transfer pricing is a bit complex to calculate exactly, but for 312 TB you would pay roughly 0.07 per GB for a total of nearly $22,000.

You can rent a 1 Gbps line for under $500 per month.

Think of it like buying a pipe. You can either rent the pipe, or access to the pipe. If you rent the pipe, you're buying IP transit. If you rent access to the pipe, you're buying data transfer. When you rent the pipe, you pay based on its diameter -- the capacity of what you can fit through it. But when you rent access to it, you're charged by how much you put through it.

IMO, this price gouging is the single biggest problem with cloud providers and also leaves a hole in the market. The cloud is pitched as elastic, but it's only elastic so long as your business is not bandwidth constrained. For example, you would not be able to build a competitive CDN or VPN network in the cloud, because you cannot charge your customers for data transfer since your competitors do not charge like that. But you have to pay for their data transfer, even if it all fits within capacity that you could provision for a 40th of the cost.

I've been interested in this market for a long time. A few years ago I was pitching a startup that invovled this idea. It never came to fruition, but I do have an (unfinished) slide deck that might interest someone: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1BJICGRhDL95vdBFg0ZE8...

If anyone is working on this problem or wants to discuss it, send me an email as I've got a lot of thoughts on the matter and will be working on a project in this space within the next year.
