Last year we had a $NAME come for an audit. Well known company and they did not know how to audit inside containers.

Still not sure how a corporation who runs RHEL contractually is able to use alpine and ubuntu based containers but it happens.

I dont work there anymore and I am glad because when the containers finally do get an audit and the customer is told for X years they havent been in compliance.... well..

There really isn't much else to the story. I had been at the company longer than that manager, and the person who took over for him liked me.

I will also admit that the PIP did point out some attitude problems (I had been getting a bit surly), and so I did genuinely attempt to correct that. It's something I do struggle with at times.
Obama never showed any desire to curtail executive powers. In fact, he was championing exactly the opposite approach - that executive has the power to produce new regulatory legislation and ignore existing legislation they don't like, as soon as they perceive Congress does not do what they want it to do. No wonder Obama did nothing for civil forfeiture reform - that would be the exact opposite of his policy of infinite executive powers. His administration was not just ignoring forfeiture abuse - it was actively encouraging it, e.g. by means of infamous "equitable sharing" program, that allows the law enforcement to directly profit from seized property: https://www.usnews.com/opinion/articles/2016-04-11/obamas-do...

Saying forfeiture abuse proliferated "even under Obama" is like saying even under Rod Blagojevich corruption proliferated in Illinois. Not exactly a surprise.

> We already know that energy production is viable if we can solve the containment problem.

No. That's only a small part of the problems. What is probably a far more difficult problem is the fact that any nuclear fusion which is remotely viable in this century will use a Deuterium-Tritium reaction. And tritium is an isotope which does not occur in nature - it is unstable. Therefore tritium has to be bred, using heavy water reactors. And lots, lots, of uranium. The idea is now to breed tritium, using neutrons from nuclear fusion, and further nuclear chemistry which is supposed to happen in a breeding blanket. But this runs into an additional problem, the deuterium-tritium reaction has no neutron surplus, as uranium fission has. And in addition to the very difficult task of exfiltrating traces of Tritium, one essentially needs a breeder technology (similar to Monju in Japan), and there are huge, unsolved material sciences problems, such as constructing a large structures which withstands very strong magnetic forces, very high temperatures, and a very high neutron flux, and this of course without any elements like carbon which will become radioactively activated.

Oh, and I forgot, the whole process is also unlikely to be clean, because of the breeder technology needed.

And all these questions are so extremely difficult, that today's large projects, like ITER, do not even address them.

By the time it gets to court, it's no longer a few hundred bucks. And even if you take it to small claims, you can get the defendant to pay the costs if they lose. And they will lose. Because withholding pay is kind of illegal.

Article states that both the Land Rover and the drugs were purchased using the payout from a life insurance policy. It is unclear whether any of the drugs were ever sold at a premium over the original purchase price.

As I recall, the whole concept of civil asset forfeiture was originally to discourage crime by removing the profit from criminal activity when the property was at hand, but the owner was outside the jurisdiction or otherwise unreachable. The long history of forfeiture is mostly seizing the property because the actual criminal was untouchable.

It has since morphed into cops acting as highwaymen to fund their activities beyond the bounds of their regular budget. In this case, the alleged criminal was actually charged, in custody, given due process criminally, and fined. The cops, not satisfied with the fines already levied, stole his car, too.

In my non-lawyerly opinion, if the Supreme Court would like for forfeiture to continue largely unchanged, they should reverse and return the guy's car, and cite so many case specifics that this would be practically useless as precedent. If they confirm, there is a chance that public backlash will eliminate forfeiture through legislatures. If they reverse on principles rather than specifics, that would set precedent easily usable by everyone better respected than a heroin dealer. I hope for the latter, but I don't think the current court has the right makeup to tear the filthy entrails out of forfeiture.
Why do so many "solutions" always involve someone suggesting to tax and to get government coercion involved?
What on earth does storage mean in this context: "Instead of FB having all of your data, it's stored on the blockchain"??

It doesn't mean actually, "store thousands of messages, posts, and photos literally 'on' the blockchain" because that would get ridiculously unwieldy.

So maybe it means, "store pointers to the above-mentioned data within a blockchain," which makes for a plausible organizing principle but doesn't actually do any storage (for which you'd still need technology and a business model to support it).

I'm only a little bit being snarky here: is there a deeper / more robust meaning to the shorthand of "we can store [some kind of rich, lots-of-bits] data 'on the blockchain'" that isn't clear to the dilettante?
The sad thing is, PIPs can exist as much to be a check on managers as to punish employees. PIPs, like annual reviews, should never be surprises. But there are a lot of crappy managers out there[0].

So, yeah, a formal check-in before a firing at the very least gives an employee time to start getting things in order before being completely out of a job, if you disagree with the assessment and don't trust your manager to give you a fair shot, and you can't make the case to the rest of management to give you a shot elsewhere within the company. And that's better than that same manager being able to fire you with zero notice.

[0] and from the opposite side of the desk, it should also be acknowledged that there are also some crappy employees out there who will let their performance degrade to sub-replacement-level.

The trick is to find the places where mid- and upper-management will see a manager using a lot of PIPs as a poor reflection on that manager. Likely they're hiring poorly, motivating poorly, coaching poorly...
Except you did not actually calculate 15% which would be 2.35.
Calories out can't be directly measured, BUT you can compute it pretty accurately anyway.

Measure your weight. Track your calorie consumption for N days, then measure your weight again. Then use the 3500 calories per pound conversion to figure out what calories out must have been to cause that.

For example, if over 30 days you ate 2000 calories per day and lost 3 pounds, then you must have burned 3500 * 3 excess calories total. That averages out to 350 calorie deficit per day, so your calories out must have been 2350.

Or if you ate 2000 calories per day for 30 days and your weight remained the same, then your calories out was 2000 as well.

I've been calorie counting for a long time (initially to lose weight, now just habit), and I do this sort of calculation every month or two in order to maintain my weight within a ~5 pound range.

I think the immediate problem with setting this up as a legal preceding is that it gives everyone involved a fundamentally wrong idea.

It suggests that the employee is on trial, but you can't be on trial if your performance is poor because poor performance is not a crime. Yes, I'm sure everyone involved understands academically that it's not, but reading the article, the comments here, I think the internalized intuition at work is casting this as a matter of justice.

Hiring, retention and firing are not mechanisms to enforce some sort of justice, they're about ensuring that employment is mutually beneficial.

It's extremely hard for someone looking at being fired to have this kind of detached view of it, especially if you're already inclined to view the world in terms of justice, but you shouldn't because it will mess with your head. The first thing you want to do if you leave a job for any reason is move on, not feel like you've been exiled or ostracized. And if you come into an interview with a chip on your shoulder, that makes it significantly harder to get a new job and move on.

And this is not just a problem employees have, many managers are prone to criminalize employees who don't do well or hold grudges against people. That leads to capricious behavior and corrosive office politics, and you do not want them in leadership roles.

Noora opensource; make database projects easy transferable between developers
As a data engineer in a project based company, I have to maintain and develop a dozen database projects.

Each database project is also available in different environments (DTAP) and holds it's own set of typical attribute or values for that environment.

Before noora this mend that every database project had it's own unique structure depending on so to speak the mood of the developer. In order to install the database project batch or shell script was used, which made it even more typical and highly os dependent.

For me and my fellow developers it mend that a lot of time was lost in maintaining and developing on these kind of database projects. In general it mend that the database project were not easy transferable between developers.

So I thought, can I do something about this and noora was born, which in general implements a static folder pattern reflecting every available object type of a particular database technology. For example table scripts are placed in the tab folder and trigger scripts are placed in the trg folder.

By using a single configuration file an user can influence the naming of these folders and the order in which they are installed by noora. As a site effect of this we also got rid of batch and shell scripts and now have tool which can be used on multiple operating systems like linux, mac and windows.

In this post I left the support for multiple environments, databases and schemas out of the equation. They are also implemented by using the same folder pattern.

If you recognize this problem, you could consider looking at noora and maybe help us to make it even better.

For your information noora supports oracle, mysql and mysql and has a development and usage record of about 8 years.

At last I am really curious if the community recognizes this dilemma in maintaining and developing multiple database projects. So please feel free to comment.
I've looked into this in the past (on an embedded device, not a smartwatch) and back then was convinced that it was a more difficult idea than I wanted to spend time on. Morse code is made for humans to write and humans to listen to, so it's often sloppy and difficult to parse in an automated fashion. Everyone writes a bit differently, at different speeds, and everyone has a different definition of how long a dash and a dot should be.

It's possible for sure, but like OCR there's a lot of variability in it. Just like parsing handwriting is full of edge cases, parsing morse code is as well.
If you are really interested in Nazi regime, you would do better if you would study history, what happened when Nazi were still small, what real Nazi were saying, ideas and fears that shaped German opinions, journals of contemporary people, what opposition did and how they lost, that sort of thing.

I have. The conclusion I've reached is that we're incredibly fortunate that few of those circumstances exist in the US today. If they did, the outcome would be the same, because -- get ready for this, it's a radical statement -- we're no different than the Germans.

The Nazis were not aliens or monsters or demons. They were us. Just a matter of the right (wrong) circumstances combined with the right (wrong) leadership, that's all.

That's basically what the infamous psychological experiments of Milgram and Zimbardo showed, when all of the academic hair-splitting and infighting is said and done. Their observations were, and are, a big problem for anyone who's invested in the "Some people are just evil monsters" model.

That seems like it would be very trivial to game, and additionally while facts are hard to confirm, a consensus of users who are biased and relatively uneducated on the topic would do a particularly bad job anyway.

The best similar use case I can imagine is building a system is to evaluate how much of the media is in agreement on a given topic, and use that to combat fake news. If a similar headline isn't found elsewhere, give it a low truth rating.

I wonder if they'd consider that. It's basically a system to activate in an emergency, so adding a complex process of detecting a pilot with possible errors into the mix seems risky. "Pilot on the plane" is not a trivial thing to determine.
Interesting... so you create a network and isolate it from the rest of the network ? How do your applications serve traffic ?

Or... you create a network with namespaces and use iptables aka the firewall to network that to the other networks you created with namespaces ?

Think about it logically... when you use TCP you share the connections... your namespace isolation is exposed by the very thing that firewalls it... make sense ?

Consumption would include all money exchanged. If you invest in the stock market for example $ paid to broker, and money invested would be taxed as it leaves your hand. When you pull it back, broker/investment firm pays the consumption tax because it's leaving them, going back to you.

Anything a company pays money for goes to consumption including: Wages, Power bill, Land, Buildings, Planes, Trains, Transportation of Goods.

Poor would be offset by guaranteed basic income and universal healthcare. GBI would basically be a negative income tax, the 4% is variable and can be raised/lowered yearly whether the country's in the black/red - but only 1-2 points per year w/ congress's approval. Also 4% was just a number I pulled out of ass, could be 7 or 8% instead.

I don't see how poor would suffer under this if they have a guaranteed 30-40k income if they don't work one day the entire year. Sure they might spend all of that back in food, tax, shelter, etc..but they have food, and shelter which they may not have had before.

The only stipulation on GBI would be you must have a residence to collect. (If you want to remain homeless and spend all cash on Meth, that won't work, you need to at least get housing).

That is a partially solvable problem, though. While you cannot fix a restaurant when it fails at that, you can simply not visit there. Well, assuming not all restaurants fail at this (which at least isn't my experience).
The line is clear: everything today branded "AI" is just applied statistics. AI is a buzzword. I don't know what the definition of intelligence is, but I have a feeling it doesn't rest anywhere near concepts like function approximation, and that's all even the most sophisticated "AIs" at Google or Facebook or Apple boil down to.
A Swiss Army knife for data pipelines
IANAL either, but the Supreme Court generally prefers to set very narrow precedents.

It's possible they'll rule that civil forfeiture was acceptable in this one specific case, and they'll go out of their way to make it clear that their ruling only applies to this specific case.
> It's misleading if you omit facts which run contrary to your narrative. I have no idea if this is the case in the China episode, but he has done this previously

Even though I don't know you, I'm sure at some point you've omitted some fact that was contrary to your option or some narrative you were expressing (because literally everyone has). Does that make you a propagandist and everything you write propaganda?

Oliver's recent Xi Jinping segment wasn't propaganda, it was an op-ed/satire that was obviously produced under length constraints.

If your operational definition of propaganda allows you to label all expressions of opinion as propaganda unless they're ponderously lengthy (so as to never omit a thing that some critic might want to see), then I think your definition is flawed.

It is not strictly true that endpoints and the locus of trust always have humans in the loop. (Where they do, of course, I agree that blockchain has much more limited "fit" as a solution.)

However, in what I call "network-native resource transactions," namely, where the provision of the thing of value is computational and can be verified on the network (think: storage, compute, bandwidth, namespace resources like DNS), there are a large number of transactions where the performance of the counterparty can be shown with math.

In those cases, of network-native resource transactions, the transaction itself can be the locus of trust, and the payment / settlement becomes the weak link. For this (admittedly somewhat narrow) set of uses, then, blockchain is really really useful because the payment / settlement trust problem can be done away with deterministically provided the resource transaction is verified.
It's blocking creeps, obviously!

Which, in turn, requires you to understand the concept of what a creep is, and how blocking them contributes to creep equilibrium (and what creep equilibrium is) and how the various states of equilibrium contribute to gameplay, and how/why/when you want to manipulate that (for example, you want to block creeps at some early points in the game so your opponent has to attack uphill, but between those particular points in time you want to push your creeps in deeper to ensure you have time to complete other objectives). :)

Obviously, you don't need to know anything above, but once you start diving into the depth of things OpenAI (and human players) deal with every game, it gets pretty insane that a bot can learn at such a high level so quickly.
It's really helpful to hear this perspective. Can you suggest which topics have the most real world use?
