Lambda's design is a little perplexing in this regard.. latencies to invoke a function, even for a warm function are pretty ridiculous, and any on-host copies will be totally invisible given the networking environment.

Despite that, e.g. the Python runtime implements RPCs by sharing a memory segment with the host process running outside the container, which seems like massive overkill to me.

I played with writing a library that would exec a new binary over the top of Python (for fun), but doing so loses access to the segment. There doesn't seem to be any UNIX API that would allow access to it to be recovered across exec. It might be possible by leaving the Python process idle and mmapping from /proc/parent_pid/mem in a child, but that requires debugging privileges almost certainly absent in a container.

The segment is created by mmapping a passed FD, which is then closed by the bootstrap code. I couldn't find any mechanism for moving that segment across processes, or inheriting it across exec.

So much simpler if they just implemented HTTP over a socket or suchlike
The issue of startup companies dumping scooters on the street is an easier problem to solve than the systemic issues which create street homelessness.
Deal. In return, meat products can also not not be misrepresented through labels like "ethically raised" or "humane".
I'm surprised that Tesla isn't doing stereo or trinocular (3 cameras) to get depth. It's just cameras, and it works reasonably well. You can use cameras the width of the windshield apart to get a wide baseline, which increases the useful range. But no. Although Tesla does have multiple cameras, they never mention stereo vision. Mobileye is depth from motion, and apparently, so is Tesla's in-house system.

(3-camera depth is more reliable than 2-camera. Many of the ambiguous situations for two cameras can be resolved with three. Especially if it's 3 cameras in a triangle, not a line.)
The word "mylk" was invented for this purpose.
I rode bird scooters many times and I'm in favor of electric scooters succeeding. Yesterday, saw a couple of bird scooters that were not properly placed, just lying on the ground not using the kickstand. Just to do my small part, I fixed them up by using the kickstand and making sure they are least obstacle to foot traffic and wheelchairs. It only took less than 60 seconds. For those in favor, we can all chip in.

Nope, just merely curious

For most of the use cases I can think of that these would suit, Infiniband seems like it would also work and that's fairly widely available already.

That being said, there's probably use cases this would suit better. They're just not coming to mind easily. :)

> I'm excited for what this will do to the cost of dedicated servers in ~1 year.

This is the opposite though?

The dedicated servers are turning into HEDTs. AMD 32-core EPYC has been available since last year, and Intel's 28-core Skylake (although $10,000) has been also available for a year.

So dedicated servers got this tech first, then HEDT got it a bit later. I guess Threadripper is Zen+ so its technically HEDT gets the 12nm tech first, but the 32-core infrastructure was in EPYC first.
Saying that we shouldn't ban businesses and consumers from engaging in voluntary activities unless harm can be demonstrated is actually nothing like saying we shouldn't have checks on the president's power because they might be a good dictator.

I fully support net neutrality but some of these analogies are absurd.
There are different kinds of visibility. LGBT people are more publicly visible now because society is more accepting, and society has become more accepting largely as other people have come to know LGBT people in their individual lives. Being able to choose what they shared, with whom, when, where, and how has been an important part of that.
As far as I understand it, the principle is that "nobody is illegal" and that those people have a fundamental right to immigrate to the US (or anywhere else) without barriers. Thus the chant "no borders, no nations, stop deportation".

It might be related to Marx's idea of class solidarity over "bourgeois nationalism", but I haven't thought about it enough to say.

EDIT: could also come (blind stab in the dark) from Maoism-Third Worldism.
I just don't see how this helps innovation at all, unless they plan to actively start chopping up blocks of the Internet and offering regulated services.

You literally required less hardware with network neutrality because you didn't need any packet shaping routers.

Upsolve | Full-Stack Senior Software Engineer | New York, or REMOTE | ~5 hours/week of contract work | +$125/hour

Upsolve is tech nonprofit that helps low-income Americans get a fresh start after financial shocks like job loss and medical illness. We do this through TurboTax for bankruptcy. Spun out of Harvard Law School, our mission-driven funders include the U.S. government, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, and Blue Ridge Labs @ Robin Hood.

We're looking for a senior software engineer willing to help our nonprofit's engineering team for 3-5 hours/week. They'll be paid at market rate. Anyone know someone (preferably NYC based) who could be interested? If so, please drop a line to rohan@upsolve.org.

In particular, we're looking for someone who is an expert in the functional programming paradigm, data security, accessibility, and/or architecting systems that rely on multiple vendors to succeed. We are fullstack javascript, distributing our frontends statically using React/Redux/GatsbyJS and use Node for our backend services which are containerized on AWS ECS.
So what has changed? Why add regulation if there hasn't been any proven need yet? In my opinion the bad PR is more of a threat then regulation

Thanks for sharing that. Didn't know someone else had done it before. Nitpicking a little in that with that scheme the losers could attempt a double spend, but for 2014 it's still pretty cool.

Also a very clever hack to get around the scripting limitations by using the length of the secret instead of the actual secret itself.
I wish that were the case. At least in my city, every night the birds are gone. I've grown to like them, but using them to go home from the pub or anything latenight hasn't happened for me.

I assume Chargers are picking them up to take home no matter the state of charge. So in that case I guess that's how Bird gets around the littering laws. They aren't abandoned if they are retrieved every night.
Well in both cases North/South America and Africa/Eurasia are on different tectonic plates.

Yes, I did exactly this when I moved from the UK to the US. As an existing Premier customer, I was able to open a bank account and provide the necessary verification at a later date.

With BTC there's practically no person who can revert the trqnsaction. On the other hand if Vitalik loses a $1B bet on the Eth chain...

> I want to take the devils advocate position here and ask: why shouldn't a vendor be allowed to charge more for tiered service?

The ISPs are allowed to charge more for different service tiers under the 2015 rules, and under the earlier 2010 rules. They regularly do so. Most offer multiple tiers differentiated by speed and/or data volume and/or quality of service guarantees.

What the rules are trying to deal with is the following scenario.

You and I are both end users on the same ISP. We've signed up for the same tier, along with numerous other people.

Consumer ISP plans are almost always oversold, so if too many customers at once try to use their plan to its full capacity there is may temporarily be slower speeds, higher latency, or increased packet loss. The ISPs keep track of how often this happens, and if it happens too often they are supposed to increase their network capacity.

If you and I have similar internet use habits in terms of the kind of things we do and when we do them, then the periods of congestion hit is about equally on average. One night maybe your Netflix movie has some problems, and my Amazon Prime Video movie is fine. Another night, maybe it is the other way around.

To reduce extraneous variables, let's assume that the Netflix servers that server your movies and the Amazon servers that serve my movies happen to be in the same city, and are connected to the same backbone provider, and let's assume that you and I are neighbors, so that your Netflix packets and my Amazon packets are going over the same infrastructure except at the very ends of the routes.

Now suppose our ISP talks to Amazon and says "If you pay us, we'll make sure that when we are congested and have to slow down or drop packets, we'll slow or drop Amazon Prime Video packets last". Amazon agrees.

Even though you and I are on the exact same tier, and paying the exact same amount to our mutual ISP, now I have fine movie nights every night of the week, and you get slowdowns and dropouts.

That's what the rule is trying to stop.
I agree! We can talk ourselves blue in the face, but the only thing that will result in real positive change is to vote against anti-net neutrality politicians in November.

I have some vague idea, but I'd like to see the actual vote counts by party affiliation. Does anyone have a link, or could provide this info?

There is an opportunity cost. If you spend more money on border security then you can’t spend that money on something else.

Not quite. There were net netrality regulations before 2015, but it was struck down because isp's weren't under title 2, so in 2015 they were reclassified under title 2. Thats what was ended.
I upvoted you but have nothing salient to add to the conversation above what you've articulated.
The border wall is a paralytic argument that isn't intended to provoke a rational discussion about the real issues involved in undocumented immigration. Most undocumented immigrants don't arrive by crossing the border on foot; the "wall" is really a symbolic "fuck you" to Latino immigrants. I expect a major problem Palmer Luckey will have trying to sell his very expensive Nest Rio Grande Edition Camera will be that to accomplish the true purpose of the wall, the administration will actually have to build a wall.

The real issues underlying undocumented immigration include:

* The fact that the American economy depends on undocumented labor, and so we now have an economy driven in part by a de jure under-class in sort of the same way that Dubai and Saudi Arabia are driven by foreign workers with no rights whose passports are held by their employers.

* The fact that the US Constitution guarantees birthright citizenship, and so a huge percentage of undocumented families in the US have American citizen children --- who are themselves people who have, like most Americans, never known any other country, and so we now have an immigration policy whose effect is to pointlessly break up families.

* The fact that a pretty significant portion of immigrants actually interdicted at the border are in fact refugees from violence to whom we have stated obligations.

* The fact that our system treats interdicted immigrants (documented or otherwise) terribly, including prolonged imprisonment and pro-forma hearings without legal counsel.

It's pretty clear from how I wrote this where I stand on the issues. There are reasonable conservative reframings for these points. Paired together, those competing framings would constitute a rational argument about immigration. The wall, on the other hand, is mostly just a pointless symbol of nationalist enmity.

Finally, when comparing your lot with that of (say) undocumented Hondurans, bear in mind that by law your experiences aren't the same: we have different quotas and, in some respects, different systems for people of different nationalities.
>On a server, sure, but on a PC? It's their computer, they should be able to do that.

A user-writable location should never be used to load kernel modules. This is a privilege escalation vulnerability.

>You're confused because permission systems on Desktop OSs are currently based around user accounts, which is silly. If they were based around applications instead it wouldn't be a problem.

I prefer to deal with the real world design of operating systems rather than imagined ones.

>If you don't, then why is your application using it?

Using an API doesn't give you distribution rights. Copyright law assigns that to the creator of the application/shared library/. Depending on the license you will get different rights to either include a copy of the library, include a separate installer of the library, let the user install it separately, etc.

In other cases, patent law can disallow distribution. To give you an example off the top of my head - MP3 encoding is under US patent law and Audacity (an audio editing software that I use) does not allow you to save to the MP3 format till you install the shared library separately and point the software to its location.

>Apparently not one you're willing to elaborate on.

What is there to elaborate on? Are you not aware that millions of computers used in schools, colleges, corporate offices, server farms, homes, etc rely on multi-user features?

Solving a general problem involves solving it seamlessly for a large number of usecases. Otherwise you end up with a fragmented system that is confusing.

I would prefer they solve it in a perfect manner with perfect compatibility and perfect code with zero bugs, but they wouldn't listen to me. ;)

> I believe there are better and simpler solutions to the problem than package management.

Okay?

In any case, your folder based idea doesn't solve many of the real problems that users and creators face w.r.t. distributing, installing, and updating software. Before you reject them, its worth thinking about them. Bye!
Actually if you look at the frozen wing section in your grocery store you'll see that many of them are called 'Wyngz' because the Department of Ag. prevents using the term 'wing' unless it's an actual wing.

All of this. There is no defense for hiding the truth from your customers. How is anyone helped by selling tofu to someone that wanted to buy beef?

And if something can be labeled GMO or non-GMO, why can't it be labeled lab-created or bio-engineered or the like? It might be molecularly the same, but what's the harm in letting folks know?
no it just means that the federal government has constitutional power to over rule it if they feel like it, no need to argue on the basis of any existing case law.
What seems weird to me is that when the car would get closer to the object the probability that a crash would happen should increase, Tesla could not get a high enough crash probability at all, even from 1 meter or 1 millisecond before impact and continued to accelerate.

I'm aware of Ian's arguments. He's (a) too dismissive of the huge throughput benefits of generational GC; (b) ignoring the fact that both HotSpot and C# allocate objects on the stack too, with effectively superior escape analysis to that of Go because of speculative devirtualization; (c) neglecting the fact that Go's situation is almost the same as that of .NET, where the generational hypothesis certainly holds; (d) treating "request-oriented" GC as something other than generational GC, when it's really just a somewhat limited form of generational GC.

It's just a pointless thing for the Go team to dig in their heels over. They should implement generational GC, like most other languages with optimizing compilers do.
I typically refrain from discussing this on HN, I am already a unicorn in a sea of anglos (ethnic Tejano - mix of marrano and native peoples) but you need to understand at a minimum that these people are not crossing a border - the border crossed them. The Treaty of Guadalupe only allowed a pathway to citizenship on paper; in practice the complete erradication of the Hispanics/Tejanos/Natives from north of the border. Things like the bracero program in the early 20th century created this migrant cycle. This isn't about defending illegal immigration - it's about the villains pretending to be the victims. I am all for "protecting" the border - you don't do that making everyone from the border, and those that cross it for work/family/quality of life, a criminal.

Don't be a vendido, don't forget about the struggles previous generations went through just for you to be able here to comment on the internet.
