It's there, but GitHub as a company has a habit of language policing projects they have nothing to do with under the threat of banning or removal.

Remember WebM for retards?

So yeah, not surprised that GitHub employees have free reign to do whatever their feels are telling them to do at any given time.
I don’t really see how that article is relevant here?
It is an awesome product, I really want to try it a bit more at home later in the evening. Don't you think it could be a good idea that considering it is to self host git projects, to self host your own project? I mean, why don't you use your own product?

Why would the physical location of the server matter with respect to people knowing what you are doing? I have no idear where googles servers are when I fire off a search for cute cats in boxes, yet I still know what it’s doing.

As for “without laws” google still follows European laws even if my search happens to be handled on an American or British machine. You obey the laws where you operate not where your server is located.

I should probably note that the 5k€ car was basically a pickup with less benefits (it was basically a gigantic trunk behind the driver seat that happened to also house some passenger seats).

The real joy was that the engine was absolute overkill in torque (but not HP) for the car so you could pull 8 tons (and did) despite the car being rated for no more than 2. Sadly the wheels were rather small so none of that torque goes on the street unless you load the car up.

It's incredibly useful when you do happen to need it.
Truly, Australia is governed by morons. Would it be asking too much for a highly paid minister of the crown, who supposedly is supposed to lead government policy in an area, to have substantial knowledge of it?

Instead, we have these lawyers who treat maths, science and technology with contempt, who legislate for us, and don't understand what the fuck they're even talking about.

Right but deciding not to use Google services doesn't cut you off from everybody you know. My family uses Messenger, my US friends use Instagram, my European friends use Whatsapp...

I'm guessing it is less than a drop in the ocean given that the ocean makes up 3/4 of earth. Also don't forget that the earth core is hot as hell. I don't have exact number but my guess will be much less than a drop in the ocean if all datacenters were pushing heat to the ocean.
It’s true. I have a perception that there is frequent GitLab advocacy going on on HN. Almost as if their team uses HN as a de facto marketing channel. Any announcement from GitLab immediately gets upvoted to the front page. And the prior commentor being accused of being a Github shill— is that any different than the frequent comments from the same cast of characters promoting GitLab?

Plenty of shills on here and they aren’t generally the Github people. Every GitLab story’s comments consist of a barrage of comments complaining about Github. An impartial observer could be led to believe that there is some astroturfing happening. I know a lot of developers and not a single one uses GitLab. But if the HN sample is representative, it seems like most developers hate Github. The GitLab/Github threads don’t seem to track with my real world observations.

Github changed software development for the better. It isn’t perfect, but acting like a Github clone is the second coming of source control management is getting tired.

Use whatever the hell you want. The seemingly non-stop discussion about SCM systems is getting stale. Unless GitLab does some incredible innovation, why must we keep seeing stories about it getting voted to the front page? Unless Github does something especially evil, why must we be constantly be taking and complaining about it? Every time GitLab makes an announcement, they get free advertising by virtue of the upvote cabal. Seriously it’s like HN has become their PR agency. Every time Mixpanel or New Relic or Codeship or Travis CI posts a blog post announcement, it doesn’t make the front page — neither does the press release announcements of dozens of more relevant startups than GitLab. GitLab announces a pricing change! OMG, let’s vote it to the front page because everyone in the Hacker News community should care!

GitLab is “open core” and apparently Github is evil because it’s closed source. GitLab is cheaper and that’s important because spending $12 per month for private repos is just offensive. Good grief. It’s getting as ridiculous as the Windows-Mac debates 10 years ago.

Unless GitLab actually creates some new innovation, I vote for a moratorium on any stories about them making the front page; a pricing change is hardly interesting. HN ought not co-opted as a free marketing channel. The past few days, Hacker News should have been called GitLab News.

I'm really curious if AMD can overtake Intel in single threaded performance. They already have the lead in number of cores (per socket) and multi threaded benchmarks like cinebench (when using same number of cores and clocks).

At the moment Intel has a slight edge in IPC and quite a bit better clocks.

If they can close the IPC gap or even overtake Intel and GlobalFoundries 7nm process really can clock around 5ghz this will be an interesting matchup.

Q17: Does the first generation of 7LP target higher frequency clocks than 14LPP?

GP: Definitely. It is a big performance boost - we quoted around 40%. I don't know how that exactly will translate into frequency, but I would guess that it should be able to get up in the 5GHz range, I would expect.

My guess is it's a timing bug that likely exists with any number of cores, but becomes more likely the higher the parallelism.
There's two fronts worth noting:

First, Android is huge, oscillating around 85% world wide market share [1]. In many parts of the world it's the only real option for customers. You might use Facebook because your group chat is there. Many people use Android because 90% of their options are Android phones, regardless of brand, and they can't afford the ones that aren't.

Secondly, what about the actual customers (advertisers)? Google has by far the lion's share in the online advertising market; they take more than twice of Facebook's revenues, and have ads all over the web in contrast to Facebook, which is mostly (only?) on Facebook applications. Google sounds far "stickier" than Facebook to them, and way more in a position of market control.

Why fork the project instead of keeping a single one ?
Dante and the divine comedy: he took us on a tour of hell
It's probably a cost question, to my knowledge gitea.io is a github pages website. The only running cost is really the domain.

Running the git service is probably a bit expensive and you loose the network effect of github.

They could probably migrate to gitlab though.
There is a --no-colour/--no-color argument you can pass.
> there are things that can be done to mitigate ignorance to some extent

Sure, but all you're doing is moving the uncertainty from the development to the planning phase, so instead of a development phase of unknown length and cost, you end up with a planning phase of unknown length and cost.
This is the announcement of Gitea, which is a fork of Gogs.

https://blog.gitea.io/2016/12/welcome-to-gitea/

"We’re a growing group of former Gogs users and contributors who found the single-maintainer management model of Gogs frustrating and thus decided to make an effort to build a more open and faster development model."

This is a guide to run it with Docker

Consider watching this little series on Khan Academy and then sketching out your start of year balance sheet and a month's income statement.

https://www.khanacademy.org/economics-finance-domain/core-fi...

This might clarify the account types (assets, liabilities, equity, income, and expense) as structuring the income/balance reports, and accrual basis accounting as the reason to have "accounts payable/receivable."

Consider also thinking of your accounts as nodes in a directed graph. When you credit account 1 and debit account 2, you draw an edge from 1 to 2, representing a transaction. The credit is the "source" and the debit the "target."

(Double entry means you record a transaction as two updates with opposite charge, so credits and debits are listed separately. This is basically an error-correcting heuristic from 15th century Italy, which is still a good practice.)

So when you send an invoice to a client, that's a transaction. You obtain an asset taken from another entity. So you credit a revenue account and debit an asset account called "accounts receivable" (it's not "cash"). When you receive the payment, you credit accounts receivable and debit cash.
I think the IPC gap will become an interesting battle in the near future, especially as gains that came from aggressive speculation have proven to introduce security holes (take your pick of Meltdown, Spectre variant n,...).
Sow,thing to keep in mind about top researchers at top schools: money is not usually the constrained resource — time and people are harder to come by.

Paying for a custom rig that works and does exactly what they want is easily worth the added expense, paid for by research grants. Waiting for mediocre products,that only mostly solve your problem, to be shopped internationally just isn’t worth the cost savings.
There was an issue with the Gogs maintainer going AWOL for long periods of time. An earlier fork was merged back in when he returned, but a subsequent incident resulted in a permanent fork.

Also there were some governance issues IIRC.

It's better to think of Search as less of a historic plain text input field on a landing page, and instead to open it up to where people discover new ideas, products, and opportunities. Facebook and Amazon are enormous in this model. Amazon so much so that WPP and other advertising giants are less afraid of Google & Facebook, and instead incredibly terrified at what Amazon has and where Amazon is going.
The tech portfolios are a regular dumping ground for dunderheads who are too well-connected to drive to the outer ministry, but too stupid to be entrusted with ... well ... anything.

I remind people here that they should join a political party and consider seeking preselection, or at least influencing policy.

It's important that you join the party you otherwise most agree with. At different times, different parties will hold Government. Concentrating expertise on any topic in one party is a solid-gold guarantee that the other party will reject that expertise.
It is not open source. That’s a bullshit assertion. It’s open “core.” There is a difference. And, you can write custom integrations for Github.
Entertainingly the code is hosted on github. :-)

I'd have more confidence in it if it could self-host and I was able to see gitea inside of a gitea instance and that was the main workflow. Like this, it feels like maintainers aren't prepared to eat their own dog food just yet. That's fine, but I'll take a pass until that's fixed.
To completely block EU users to me at least implies greater degrees of data collection.
My guess is it's something else entirely specific to that system.

Really weird to just single out many cores as the cause. It is also just one application that barely has anything to do with windows anyway. There has never been a lack of multiple-cpus nor many-cores (and 16 isn't even many) on windows as the post implies either.
It helps that it's shaped more like townhouses than an apartment building. We have a large interior carpark/garden where the kids play, which creates a lot of incidental contact and I think the kids are a huge factor in making a neighborhood feel, it creates an easy shared experience and proximity means you can easily help people out with eg shared babysitting. There's also a few people who make a dedicated effort to encourage community, like trick or treating, and it's a place where half the residents have been there over ten years. I joined the HOA in my first year which has definitely helped me get to know others.
> As a leader, you define the goal and the pieces, and you inspire people to work toward that goal

'Inspiration' should be added as a trigger for workplace swear-boxes.

People aren't in work to be inspired to work more. The vast majority just want to earn a wage with the minimum possible effort.

In my opinion a leader is someone who shows those people how to achieve the goals the company has set in the most personally-efficient manner. Like following a guide through the jungle, he knows the shortest path and how to avoid the dangers. It's not inspirational it's just rational.

You could appoint a manager in the same jungle but he would just assign resources. "Bob, you're the machete man. Mark, carry these bamboo poles.". The team would then proceed to wander around the jungle.

You can appoint a college graduate as a manager but leaders need both domain knowledge and soft-skills. The military knows this, which is why a green junior Lieutenant is paired with an experienced platoon sergeant.

Tu es déjà dans l'illégalité pour maintien dans un système informatique. Supprime tout ce que tu as pu récupérer, efface ton historique de navigation, etc puis oublie cette histoire.
Certains ont déjà été condamnés en France pour ça. La loi n'est pas faite pour protéger les personnes comme nous qui trouvent une faille par hasard et voudraient aider en la communiquant au propriétaire du système informatique.
Tu n'as malheureusement que des soucis à tirer d'une telle histoire.

Du point de vue de la loi française, entrer ainsi dans un système informatique, c'est comme entrer dans une maison ou une voiture dont la porte est grande ouverte. Illégal. L'analogie a ses limites (on peut voir une porte de maison grande ouverte sans entrer et avertir le propriétaire, alors que pour un système informatique c'est une foie entré qu'on voit que la porte était grande ouverte).
Basically the problem here is that the author didn't care even a little to understand why accounting is done with a double entry system.

Basically what he was trying to do here was a expense and income administrator with tags. That it's just a part of what bookkeeping and accounting is.

Nice try. But you can't replace what works and what has been done for reliability and confidence since 1400 at least by the masters of trade.

Always remember this: you have different priorities than other users, than other contributors, and than the core team. I for example find import types useful for lazy loading modules, while I’ve never run into this bug in years of writing TS.

If there is a bug or feature that really matters to you and that you feel is not being prioritized:

- Contribute a fix

- Convince someone to contribute a fix

- Complain enough that someone contributes a fix (which shouldn’t work but sadly often does)

Otherwise it will be fixed when it is fixed.

(I am biased because I work with the TS team. However this is just general open source stuff, I’m not speaking professionally)

That is correct. The project is at its early stages. I want to see what the community need the most and shape the project towards that goal. On the other hand I tried to avoid optimisations until most of functionalities are implemented.
I5-2500k at 4.6ghz on big air that I bought when it came out was running great with a GTX 1080. Upgrading to a Ryzen 7 1800x@4ghz was a marginal perf game (and ~0 FPS gain in most games). The m2 SSD from a SATA SSD seems like it helped the most.

Gogs, the project Gitea has been forked off, works just as well. As far as I can see there's no technical reason to prefer the fork over the original.

Judging from Github stars, Gogs is also vastly more popular.
To simplify it a bit more (but not to lose correctness) it seems like this molecule is a maintenance signal, meaning the path is in use.

If it's not present the channel gets closed.

The whole purpose is to make it possible for a synapse to wither, because to reorganize something needs to be tore down.

> Say you work for Google because you love the AI stuff, then Google starts selling weapons. Should they fire people who don't share those values anymore ?

Values apply pressure in both directions.

If you have a culture like Google, and you need to pivot a significant fraction of your business to building weapons, then you will — sooner or later — need to replace a lot of employees (and manage that process, deal with the resulting morale problems etc). That's really expensive, but it might be worth it (depending on the business).

If you're actually like Google though — in that your real business isn't building weapons — then you just drop the weapons project. Dropping it will make the rest of your business more effective, which is way more important than some experimental side-hustle with the military. Ideally, you'd see in-advance that those kinds of projects would clash with your values and cause problems, but we all make mistakes.

The implication that these services are an "alternative" to GitHub is only coming from the blog post, none of them try to directly compete with GitHub as a platform and service. Instead they provide software mostly for self-hosting a GitHub-like service.

There's no point in running the service on your own, instead you need to go where the people/developers are and where you can be easily discovered.

Australia's Constitution does have some explicit rights and protections: right to jury trial (s80), religious freedom (s116), right to trade freely between states (s92), acquisition only made on "just terms" (s51(xxxi)) and protection from discrimination by the laws of a state other than their own (s117).

Probably more notable is the implied rights built up by the High Court. The most important of these are a right to vote and freedom of political communication.

But nothing as sweeping as the US Bill of Rights.
Unisecure Data Centers Announces Advance Cloud Management Solutions
I read the source code of programs I use often, mostly for learning purposes. The first thing I do when I want to evaluate the security of a program I don't trust is look at the system calls it performs, especially those related to I/O.

Since I don't need to reverse engineer binaries, open source code allows me to spot malicious code much faster. More importantly, it allows me to more easily remove that code from the program.

The rate of vulnerabilities caused by honest mistakes is probably the same.
