Do we even know what happened in the last 100 years? The problem with predictive analysis is that it presumes things have always continued along a trend line. This is always unlikely and basing predictions off this minute piece of the picture is like doing a 5000 piece jigsaw guessing the picture from one piece of the puzzle.

I disagree with RMS because I don't think the joke adds to my ability to understand the usage of the function.
I disagree with your example being a bad and reason is right there in your comment: the word "protocol". From wikipedia we find that a "communication protocol is a system of rules that allow _two or more entities_ of a communications system to transmit information...", where I have underscored the essential phrase and cryptographic protocols are just a subset of communication protocols.

The reason that Alice and Bob are introduced is because they are different entities and each has different powers, restrictions and goals. If you want to do a correctness or security analysis of a protocol, introducing and defining these parties is hugely important and useful. Otherwise, its very easy to make mistakes about where information is in the system and how it is being manipulated. More generally, there is a philosophical approach called operationalism [1] that demands that all science theories be couched in terms of protocols so we don't make mistakes about what they say.

Hitting a barrier in highway speeds is quite dangerous, even without hitting a car in the oncoming lane.

Sure when certain classes aren’t protected, other classes roadhaul them and keep them from integrating into schools and neighborhoods? From the end of slavery through Jim Crow, until the civil rights movement there was a big experiment of not protecting anyone, and it failed. Even after you got explicit redlining, and now redlining through other means.

It’s not as though there’s a lack of data for outcomes here, and it’s weighed against slippery slope fallacies and “what if’s.”
The FSF and its GNU project are a political endeavor. For a less-political (non-political doesn't exist) libc one might fork into linux-libc or similar.

(I'm not saying that's appropriate thing to do, as I'm just a lurker enjoying the free work by others in glibc's regard, but wanted to make the point)
That group being the maintainers?
This is super cool, but what is a squarrow? ;-)

> there was no public crucifixion here, no court, no treason

Yes, you're correct. In this instance, there was no crucifixion, because the CoC/inclusivity crowd didn't have enough political capital.

See the NodeJS TSC drama I referenced. That's the "one side" being favored. That's the end result of pandering to people who take offense at the drop of the hat. This is simply Stallman refusing to concede to the notion that everything must be unoffensive.
This seems to ascribe a high amount of ill will to glibc maintainers who have been faithful and productive GNU maintainers for many years, and I don't believe there's any other evidence that they wish to undermine RMS' authority.

However, if those maintainers find that their faithfulness is rewarded by being told that they don't actually maintain the project, they're just tending it while RMS is busy, it seems entirely reasonable to me that they would become upset at RMS trying to undermine the decision-making structure of glibc. The principals here, the people making the technical contributions, are the glibc maintainers.
Exactly how meaningfully are you at risk of being subject to gentrification, account that is four minutes older than its only comment?

Dr Rachel Thomas, the co-founder of fast.ai, is the person who takes the highest voted questions from our 600+ in-person students and passes them on to me, as I asked her to do. At least 4 different people must have wanted the question asked before she asks it.

This approach helps ensure that if I haven't explained something clearly enough that I get another chance to do so, and, more importantly, keeps me fresh and energized throughout each lesson (I get stale and boring without some interaction).
Come to think of it, I find Zendo much harder than the game described in the article. I think it’s because the inputs (arrangements of shapes) are more complex than numbers, and the outputs (Booleans) give you less information than numbers.
OK, the "one side" is the side that believes that open source projects should be offensive?
Suiteness (YC S16) is hiring a media strategist
I lived in Brooklyn for the better part of a decade, and was a gentrifier. I watched two neighborhoods change, and it seems to me the hard thing to talk about is that everything that's lost is immaterial. Destroying a neighborhood of folks who know each other can show larges gains on the balance sheet, but the losses can't be quantified.

Maybe Facebook can find a way to monetize those social relations, so the could be recognized as having a value. (/s)
Wow. That Chinese accident video confirms my worst possible understanding of this. There are no special conditions. If a truck is parked in your lane you're going to hit it. More people should know about this. Maybe people don't want to believe it. I don't know. But I do know that I'm not going to trust any system that doesn't have multiple LIDAR sensors. Though it may take a while for the price on those to drop enough to make it affordable.

> "Opponents of gentrification, and supporters of rent control, are generally considering the well-being of current residents."

And what about current residents who need to move? Suppose a disadvantaged woman decides to leave her abusive husband and is trying to find another place to move into. Is it fair that her well-being is completely neglected?

I'm all in favor of the intentions behind rent control, but the implementation is an atrocious way to achieving its goals. If the goal is to help the poor long-time residents of a city, then do that directly. Raise property taxes, impose a city-income-tax, and use the proceeds to offer assistance to means-tested long-time residents. This would be far better than what SF has currently.
Congrats on starting! That’s the hardest part. As someone who helps people lose weight professionally, I’m curious to hear what program, if any, you found and how did you decide to do it? (I’m not selling anything, just curious).
>> Possibly. But a distracted driver is definitely at fault, no matter what.

Both parties are at fault, I'm not denying that. That's not the point.

>> Pretty good. Most people are honest, even in a bad situation.

What gives you that idea? People are dishonest all the time, especially to themselves. It's a basic coping strategy.

>> Well, you probably have your reasons for writing this under a novelty account.

Yes, it's that I'm saying "controversial" things that inevitably collide with the ideas of all the "righteous" people around here.

>> But it's clear that when you are at fault it is best for everybody involved to recognize that fact, even if it means discomfort for you.

That's cute and all, it's just not how human psychology works. There are endless examples of this, from the pettiest thieves to the biggest mass murderers.

>> I get that in todays climate it's what you can get away with, but I don't think that strategy will hold in the longer term.

If you sincerely don't believe you are at fault (even if that is objectively wrong) and there is no evidence to prove otherwise, you'll get away with it. That's how the legal system works, if it works. In fact, if you were to get convicted despite believing to be innocent, that's (psychologically) the worst thing that could happen to you.

On the other hand, if you happen to be the odd one out that seeks atonement for their sins, getting convicted may help you out. That's probably a pathology in and of itself though.

>> But that's wrong on many levels and I refuse to subscribe to that view.

But... that's entirely irrelevant. Have you considered that maybe your moral ideals are distorting your view of physical reality? Some sort of magical thinking towards justice?

That is true if you control the software running in top of it. For a cheap hoster upgrading PHP means they can put more customers on a single server, but causes support cost by customers who's apps don't work anymore and where no developer is there to fix it.
This depends on what type of engineer you want to become. Network, Systems, Civil, Nanotech, Computer, Financial, Nuclear, Chemical, Neural, Combat, War/Military, Weather, Weapons, Building, Aerospace, Telecom, Embedded, Logistics, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Federal Emergency, etc. As all of them involve programming now, which was not the case 20 to 30 years ago. Some are harder than others and some are not obtainable without certain long term commitments being conducted (some military and civilian engineering fields).

There are a few paths to gaining the required expertise to be seen as an engineer by other engineers in the field. Self-taught which is normally the hardest path as it is not as guided as others, but normally gives you the most time to dive deep into the books. Though, for some you really have to have hands on experience to become the best of the best which is normally what the academic mixed with real work offers (co-ops, internships, etc.). You can also look into an apprenticeship if it exists within your field or work with a highly respected engineer with 20+ years of experience to be your mentor. You can also do the 100% academic route, but that may get expensive and you may not get the bleeding edge real-life work experience unless you can get into a good co-op/internship at a private/public company working in the field of your interest.
Hiding the name of the company and what they do is my biggest annoyance. Yes, I really care about that. More than their tech stack, and way more than a buzzword soup that poorly describes their tech stack.

Second biggest annoyance is keyword matching me and hundreds of other people and spamming us all, because so many times there isn't even close to a good fit other than your client uses java and I have some Android experience. Most of these people then make me feel like I'm a high pressure sales target, and in many ways I know I am so it's more understandable. But I'm not likely to want to work with you.

The best recruiters I've ever worked with make me feel like I'm the customer and they're doing me a service. Finding good opportunities can be hard, and I probably don't know the market as well as you do. Those recruiters don't outwardly care if I'm not interested in a particular role they thought was a good fit. They say that's ok, what don't you like? What should I look for when I send you opportunities?

Jacobin is a leftist magazine. One of the main ideas of people on the socialist left is not just to observe how people behave and live, to merely be reactive, but to seek to change society to ameliorate its ills.
Yes, it's vague enough that you can probably find what you want in it. For that reason alone, there probably is a legitimate case to remove it.

I think it's interesting how one's background can affect this too. I think everyone agrees that GNU & FSF are left-wing projects but where the "left" falls on different issues depends on where you're from. For RMS & most American lefties, "freedom" includes things like abortion rights. I think in other countries like Latin America & Catholic Europe the "left" generally favors restrictions on abortion. Lots of people that have become involved in the free software movement recently are from Latin America & RMS probably doesn't pick up on what his core audience believes on these things.
It doesn't seem to be about good taste, but the purpose of technical documentation.

As I remember, North Beach in particular did become unaffordable at about that time. Other parts of The City remained expensive but affordable up to the 2000s.

The rent jumps and illegal/shady evictions starting maybe 2010-2012 effectively pushed out a fraction of those surviving on rent control plus many of the merely upper-middle-class out of the city, leaving the wealthy and big-5 programmers getting huge salaries for 80-hour-days during the whole of the best years of their lives.

The thing about the situation the city hasn't "upgraded" but rather has been left gray and boring (yet fearful and hyperkinetic). Pretty sad compared to the lively punks I saw squatting old industrial buildings in 1984. Even that was sad compared to the summer of love I assume but I wasn't around for anything but the end of that.
How about cable companies? Some argue Amazon is subsidized in the same way, by having USPS shipping cheaply to the outskirts.
Emacs Org-Mode. I'm still getting the hang of it, but keeping my TO-DOs in line with agenda mode and clocking in and out of tasks to really see how much time I've been putting in has worked wonders.

I often wonder about how sustainable SF’s growth is. Between the issues with housing, rent control, NIMBYism, and poor infrastructure, there has to be a price tag at which this can’t continue. I live in the city, and the quality of living here is terrible compared to other cities.

The only thing SF has going for it is the people, but sooner or later the right social pressures could cause a mass exodus, and I wonder what those pressures look like.
I agree. this paradox would seem to be exemplified with the current trend of "Codes of Conduct" in OSS whereby we seek to have a Open and Predujice free workspace -- yet ostricize segments of the IT workforce simply because by setting conduct boundaries, we create "inclusive doctrines" that by definition _cannot_ be unanimously agreed upon by all parties. And at that point the odd man out is stranded alone with their eccentric opinion waving in the wind.

Also, turning it into a personal failing is absolutely helpful. What isn't is thinking that a personal failing is a bad thing and not just a thing which isn't as good as it can be.
I think the question is who’s responsibility it is to protect the woman in your hypothetical. Is it the landlord? New tenants? Some people from Amazon looking to expand? The new cafe charging $5 for rainbow bagels? The state or federal government? The goals of most of those entities are agnostic about the woman, not against her or for her. Rent control basically says the landlord is responsible, your formulation says the government is responsible through increased taxation. I don’t know the answer, but I can understand that most people are too preoccupied with their own lives to prioritize the woman.

At the end of the day, someone or a lot of someone’s need to take or share responsibility for the circumstances of the less foruntate, because the alternative is terrible for everyone.
As someone who helps people lose fat professionally, I can say with near 100% confidence this will have almost zero effect on the vast majority of people.

People were lean long before calorie counts were readily available, the problem people have is NOT lack of awareness of the number of calories in their food.

The problem is philosophical — if you think all edible substances qualify as “food,” you’re never going to lose weight and keep it off.

If you think you should only be consuming whole foods the VAST majority of the time, then you will lose weight and keep it off relatively effortlessly.

It's funny how naive youtube content creators are. They complain about their subs not getting their notifications and ask their subs to hit the "notification bell" as if that is going to do anything. They don't realize that youtube is being pressured into moving away from individual content creators to corporate content. You don't see john oliver, jimmy kimmel or SNL subs complaining about not getting their notifications.

HBO, ABC and NBC aren't just content creators. They are subsidiaries of large corporations who are also some of the biggest ad spenders.

It's isn't by accident that john oliver, jimmy kimmel, SNL, etc are so heavily promoted by youtube.

It's in youtube's interest to manipulate the notifications system so that when john oliver releases a video, his views do well since he is advertiser friendly with the corporate seal of approval. But in the long run, this could be very bad for youtube as people's interest declines. It isn't corporate content that brought people to youtube, it was local/individual content.

I'm curious: how does containerization work for systems that utilize kernel-bypass? Is it even possible?

I did a (admittedly short) search for kubernetes and kernel bypass, and the only thing that seem remotely relevant was [0], however it didn't indicate whether they work together.

For background, I work for a Dark Pool Alternative Trading System, and we currently utilize kernel bypass for all of our networking using Solarflare NICs & openonload [1].

In the same vein, curious how containers work with CPU shielding and pinning threads to specific cores. Is it possible, and how do multiple containers on the same box interact in that regard. Do they need to be quasi-aware of each other so as to not pin a thread to the same core?

I'd greatly appreciate if anyone with experience with containers can answer these questions. I'm genuinely curious, but it's not worth researching further if there's no solution that can handle these strict requirements (e.g. it's a non-starter if containers increase latency).

Cool, this sounds like a general form of the picnic game[0].

An input to the "picnic" function is a food (or other object), and the output is whether or not it can be brought to the picnic. The picnic game's hidden function that needs to be uncovered is a predicate function. E.g. if the hidden function is "Things that start with the letter A", then "apples", "anchovies", and "albatrosses" could be brought to the picnic, but not "bananas", "cameras", nor "dessert". In that example, the function would look like:

lambda x: x.firstLetter() == 'a'
