Zuck was floating some political ambitions but he hasn’t paid his dues to the establishment yet. This was their way of putting him back in place. Same thing happened to Bezos recently with the negative press on Amazon working conditions. Google guys have steered clear of the spotlight, and already collaborate closely with tptb anyway.
Actually, these Unix-alike conventions of filenames just being NUL-terminated sequences of bytes/16-bit words come from the same thinking that gave us the concepts of files just being length-counted sequences of bytes that it was up to applications softwares to interpret and impose structure upon.

They were reactions to the more structured access methods of the day.

What's a good spec for a server for a data science group right now?

I'm thinking a shared resource attached to a hadoop cluster with R & Python workloads across 100's Gb's of data - so offload to Hadoop for embarrassingly parallel over 20+ TB but go as quick as you can for large somewhat parallel or sequential loads. About 10 users...

We have a couple of GPU servers for DNN's so that's a separate workload for us.

This article fails the basic sniff test. The US is running net trade deficits and continuing to take on more debt every year.

As you go about your daily life in the US a significant amount of the manufactured things you purchase are made overseas. Most electronics, made in Asia. Cars, if assembled in the US, have a significant amount of foreign content. Clothes, more often than not overseas. Dishes & kitchen items, mostly China. Major appliances, unless you are buying a GE (now owned by Haire Chinese company) or Whirlpool, made in Mexico, Asia or Europe. Furniture, many choices, especially the ones you assemble, overseas. Lamps, fans, light bulbs, switches, HVAC system etc....mostly China, Mexico etc.. Bed linens, towels, mostly overseas. Your luggage, Asia, Mexico or Europe. If you fly on a US airline on a Boeing plane, it's major overhauls and inspections are being done in Mexico, China etc..

If automation were the culprit, given the transportation costs, these would be manufactured in the US by robots.
> You cannot even tell what "supply" even is

It’s pretty easy to figure out. Typically there will be exactly one person the board is willing to trust. It doesn’t matter how they reached that conclusion.

Being the only person in the world deemed suitable for the task gives incredible leverage when demand is near infinite.

> You misuse economic theory by simply using it to make unsubstantiatable claims

It would appear that you’re simply overthinking this. We’re talking about basic supply and demand, not a complex economic theory. It is simply an observation of what people agree to. We call it basic because it doesn’t represent anything more.
Is that true? I thought nftables was still behind on supported features compared to iptables and nftables runs on a VM.

Anyway, nftables should be nicer to administer. More pf-like.
That assumes that both numbers are for the same period and that each arrest correspond to 1 match, which most likely will not be be true. For example if system identified only subset of people, but when you make arrest you arrest all. That means that now you have more arrest attributed to system, than number of matches.

Since article does not do any attempt to answer these discrepancies, there is high chance the devil is in the details of definitions of those numbers.

The "Tragedy of Australia's NBN" has its genesis back in the years leading up to the sale of the, then, national telecommunications company Telstra. Policies both internally to Telstra and externally by both sides of politics ensured that any future improvements in the national telecommunications infrastructure would be a massive national failure.

The way the respective governments privitised the company ensured that the worst outcome would ensue. The current NBN is a mess that continues in the footsteps of those previous years.Irrespective of which government is in power, the implementation was doomed from the beginning.

If other paths had been taken 25 or 30 years ago (in some cases even longer), we would have a telecommunications infrastructure second to none in the world. But this is Australia, as a nation we are lacking in all the finer points that would enable us to achieve second to none status.

Sorry that I split my answer here, but for some weird reason many educated people I've met said something like this:

> As for “what about schools!” And similar, well the investments in the financial sector which are now paying out can be used in these areas.

No one who says this should be trusted with money in my opinion, I'm sorry. But forgetting about the fact that democratic governments are not businesses and assuming that this is just a profit maximizing activity:

The obvious alternative would have been to take the whole money and inject it directly into the economy across all sectors. Make the grossest simplification: just buy all the DOW stocks. That way the ROI would at least have been somewhere decent. Don't get me wrong, it would still have been an absolute insult to democratic ideals, but hey, at least we would have gotten some cash....

I honestly don't understand how intelligent people come up with this argument... perhaps that says something about me more than about all those people I heard saying this... so really, please, help and educate me on this one, mate.
That's alright. On Windows, cryptonector's assertion about a lack of tagging API calls with code sets is wrong to begin with and the reasoning thus does not apply. All of the ...A() API calls are implicitly tagged with the current code page, after all.

I think that, while the lack of type annotations on every variable is great since hiding boilerplate is great, it could be confusing to the uninitiated.

To elaborate, lowpower etc. on this line are Behaviors, which emit values by time:

react <$> lowpower <*> fridgepowerchange <*> wifiusers

while lowpower, fridgepowerchange, wifiusers in the react function bind to the values that are emitted by the Behaviors. (Just by looking at the code we can infer that their types are Bool, (Num a, Ord a) => a, and PowerChange respectively.)

react lowpower fridgepowerchange wifiusers
| lowpower = Just PowerOff
| wifiusers > 0 = Just PowerOn
| otherwise = fridgepowerchange

None of these are simply state variables!

Although this might have confused GP, I think this is nice since we can associate the name 'lowpower' for its semantics (The low power signal) and not have to worry about "this lowpower is a Behavior while that lowpower is a Bool".

I just had a discussion about this with a friend of mine, Jaffar Salih (we studied Interaction Design together so topics like this fascinate us), and what he remarked is that navigation apps could actually be educational tools for learning to navigate yourself. They just need to add clear markers of landmarks in their route descriptions.

Even more interesting: since Google already keeps track of where you are very often, it could use your favourite shawarma place or regular bus stop as a "personalised landmark". to give you things to orient by and help you connect the dots and fill in the gaps. Same thing with familiar routes.

My "counter-argument" was that it was not in Google Maps's interests to make you less dependent on their navigation app. But maybe someone should get on making an OSM-based kind of app that does it instead.

HackerNews is a great community. I love the comments because they come from people much smarter than me. I actually started to make a newsletter from comments which contain an important lesson: https://lessonsofhn.com

Sadly the newsletter has only 4 subscribers and I might discontinue it in the future. However, I will not stop favoriting comments which contain important lessons.

Now I'm thinking about building a tool which will send you favorite comments of a user to your mailbox on a frequency you choose. You can add your own user and then you will not forget the things which you favorite because you will keep getting them in your inbox.

Google's Android build does not use the sharing service used by AOSP, iirc.
You've written the react function:

react lowpower fridgepowerchange wifiusers
| lowpower = Just PowerOff
| wifiusers > 0 = Just PowerOn
| otherwise = fridgepowerchange

The big deal with inverterPowerChange is this line:

return $ react <$> lowpower <*> fridgepowerchange <*> wifiusers

It binds values emitted by the lowpower, fridgepowerchange, and wifiusers Behaviors, and wraps around it, returning a Behavior that itself emits values.
If I offer you $1200, on the condition that you spend that money on a 36 hour trip to Hong Kong and back, will you turn that down?

People being arrested clearly qualifies as a negative impact. Asking for ID and arresting even 1 of those 2000 people also qualifys as a negative.

Worse even if police simply go up to these people to do a manual comparison that's a downside as police confrontations risk death.

Ask HN: Will there ever be a UDP2/TCP2/ICMP2?
(I'm not sure how to submit to Ask HN properly, am I doing this correctly?)

I'm fairly new to the internet protocols, but while studying NAT translations it struck me that the enforced 16 bit max port number could be problematic for several reason (primary because they will run out), and the reason that it's strictly 16 bit is because of the address field in UDP/TCP/similar headers (correct me if I'm wrong). Almost every other protocol on the internet is receiving continuous updates, but these headers have stayed the same for decades, causing potentially harmful restrictions.

So, would there every be a chance that something so fundamental in the internet will be replaced? Are some protocols "set in stone" for the rest of Internets lifespan?

First of all - it does not make you fully compliant as it cannot know your country of origin when you visit the website. (Origin means where you REALLY are from, not your current GeOIP country).

And second thing - I actually think that it's a great idea as a way to protest and to show how senseless it is to impose such broad restrictions on the act of collecting the data.

Don't get me wrong - I don't think GDPR is a bad idea in general. I just think that people haven't even began to realize the implications of it. It's not just a "you had one thing" type of thing to follow through. It's a terrible manifesto which completely redefines how user data should be treated, without proper guidance on what's really expected.

For example - if a user logs in and decides to opt-out of all data collection but there's no cookie on him - how are you supposed to know it's the same person if you've logged his IP address the last time he used your website? And if you are using a storage medium that doesn't support one-off removals of data, what are you expected to do? This is just one out of thousands of potential examples of how broad this is, and that's even before talking the legal fees and UI changes you need to do to make sure you're letting your users know everything they have to know about what you do with their data.

BTW - MaxMind are going to get sued by so many companies because of misidentification :)
As there can be with anything else. The question is, what is the reality?
To be fair, that might not necessarily be the fault of the journalist. Could be some hapless intern told to conjure up graphics within a few hours.
Take a notepad, write things down, ask questions. Not necessarily in that order. It is a prop, but it indicates you take this seriously and want to learn more.

Or skip the notepad and just ask questions. In my experience some doctors are just jerks or otherwise terrible at cooperative communication; others recalibrate their explanations.

> it seems difficult to imagine “academic superhumans” struggle with anything, ever.

I know a person who went to a comparable institution in my country, who was considered something of a prodigy by his peers (and me) both before being selected and after joining the institution, and who struggled a lot with his academic responsibilities. In fact, I know a few of them. One of them had to drop out of the institution after repeatedly trying to finish his academic programme, and after two years of extensions.

People struggle with things, in general. Everybody has their struggles, everybody has their demons. Even "superhumans". What we should be aiming for is not the lack of struggles — for that is merely the absence of effort — but perseverance in the face of it and growth from going through it.

I think grid-based cities are almost soulless. Designed for routing efficiency and land parcelling, and not for human living. Very little in the way of designed vistas, and not much scope for landmark buildings to add up and create an aspect. The architecture seldom gets a chance to create an emotional impact on the pedestrian. In fact grid-based systems are usually not designed for pedestrians at all.
That was a nice read, thanks!

In general, I don't know how I feel about these articles, they seem to be trending among my Twitter friends. I know that these interviews are meant as an encouragement. To show that even the great people of our field had to struggle, so we should not give up when we are still struggling.

However, these stories can also be understood negatively - if you didn't make it, you probably did not work or try hard enough. What makes this effect stronger is the selection bias - we do not see articles of the other 99% that work their tails of and do not become big in their fields. With a society that focuses on being the best, 'making it', etc. it leaves a lot of people feel inadequate, incompetent, or even depressed, even when they are big net contributors to society.

E.g. think of the 50-year old professor a moderately successful academic career. He/she is educating hundreds of students and having a big positive impact on their lives. But they are seen by others and themselves as failed academics who were not good enough to make it.

(I don't know what the solution is.)
