As blithely dismissive as grandparent who dismissed a whole field of science based on one scientific study (and hand waves at unnamed others)? Are you serious?

If you want a 'practical' set of findings, just take a look at all the psychological tricks learned and now applied to increase social media addiction, gambling addiction, etcetera.

Cognitive biases research have often proven robust under repeated tests and paradigms.

I have in my own research examined and confirmed a number of the memory error biases listed on that page.

Does your approach respect TTL, i.e. by updating your source of truth after a record expires? Because you'd still be affected by DNS rebinding attacks in that case - and if not, I imagine there'd be quite a bit of breakage when IPs change?

DNS caching in combination with an enforced minimum TTL (of something like 60 seconds) can be useful in mitigating certain categories of rebinding attacks (for example an attempt to bypass SSRF checks). Your solution might share this property if it behaves similarly.
Considering that this is a rather a rounded triangle, I doubt it has anything to do with tightness, and more with convenience, esthetic. A symmetrical displacement is also slightly less constraining in term of keeping the overall circumference/periphery (i.e. less deformation).

A better design would have been to flatten the wheel into an more oblong or even an egg shape, like snowmobiles or tanks have. However, it requires more mechanical displacement and adjustements.
Being encouraged to be "tough" and creating rituals of humiliation are different IMO.

I think they're saying that address records are part of the address-exhaustion problem. If we used SRV records instead then the port numbers become available for service endpoint discrimination, and this is a 16-bit space as alluded to. If adopted some time back this would indeed have conserved IPv4 address space; certainly there would have been far fewer 1:1 assignments for SSL termination, and a public cloud load balancer would be able to handle many distinct customers on a single IP address and so on.

In practice there'd be some introductory issues in deviating from the well-known ports involving gateway traversal (particularly corporate firewalls), but we've cleared such hurdles before.
For a 128-year-old company, it could take two generations passing away for them to be forgotten and it'd still be swift by their measure.

It's an argument for vigorous, not-personal, dialectic in design and planning meetings. It should be OK to make your best case. And it should be OK to get skeptical questions about your case. Or to hear an equivalent case for an alternative.

It's an aggressive and competitive take on what a healthy collaborative environment should look like. I've seen other approaches, but, to be honest, they sort of exchange the aggressive for the passive-aggressive.

A key line in the post:

> ...an even slower way to uncover problems than argument is implementation.

The thesis is that it is expensive to avoid argument or doing it in an incomplete or lackluster way.
Two party consent should be abolished everywhere that it exists. People have a right to record any conversation they are party to.
Given the way my study description has on occasion been mangled by misunderstandings, I'd love a chance to comment on the draft before publishing.
Full-disclosure: I’m a Consulting Architect for Red Hat focused on OpenShift.

No.

In Kubernetes and OpenShift you can control whether builds and deployments are automatic or manual, & which events triggers them [0][1]. Combined with fact that each application’s config is an independent object, this allows an admin to host hundreds of apps on a single cluster node. Usually you’re using IaC practice and storing each app’s config in a git repo or next to the app in git.

Yes, but it is already in a decaying orbit and will fall/burn up within a few months. The ISS has to be reboosted routinely in order to keep it in orbit.
I'm perpetually curious about what kind of resource usage you'd expect given those 250 repos, and which runtime you're deploying.

I've recently been playing with Go and looking at existing JVM-based services (Spring Boot + starters + our microservices). We've seen rewrites of small services change from ~500MB of RAM to ~10MB of RAM. 250 Go-based services would probably fit very comfortably on a small cluster of cheap-ish servers, depending on what they're doing and how much traffic they're handling.

Steppings are minor revisions, perhaps analogous to a kernel patch revision. So they do have to manufacture B2 die and B1 die and they are not interchangeable- but they are 99.999% identical.
I really liked your blog theme. Very neat!
They are used for different data models. Z-curve indexing only works well for point geometries, and in most quality implementations is effectively equivalent to a quad-tree; sequential locality is not a useful optimization in modern geospatial storage engines. R-tree indexing generalizes well to non-point geometries like polygons, but doesn't scale so you can only use it for small-ish data sets. The best indexing algorithms for geospatial are analogous to adaptive quad-trie (not quad-tree) algorithms, though usually in 3-space and with additional features to ensure uniform shard sizes given highly biased data.

The most critical scalability feature of good geospatial stores has nothing to do with indexing algorithm per se: the ability to adaptively reshard and migrate data/load between cluster nodes. Geospatial data models are inherently prone to hot spotting which becomes worse as data models grow.
> It is tough when they offer you a few thousand for these ideas you come up with. That money could help me build a family, but in closing off these ideas I’m making it harder for everyone else to prosper.

I don't disagree. I look at it as a way for me to profit, I have to be pragmatic, unfortunately. I do donate 25% of each bonus to the EFF and personally I look at it another way...

This problem is going to get worse before it gets better. If I don't do this someone else will. The powers that be want this, and the lower levels like myself live on a bounty. It'll eventually fix itself, but until then I can net enough money to pay off my student loans, my cars, my house.
Why is it that the CA can expect no tampering? It seems to me that it would not be hard for certain classes of attackers to MitM a CA.
DARPA should fund the development of 74-Z speeder bikes, and nothing else!
Maybe not what anyone was expecting, but we've automated all the cleaning in the house. The clothes get washed, folded, and ironed. The trash gets taken out. All the plants get watered.

How? The oldest form of automation. We pay someone to come and do it. We have a cleaning person come twice a week.
To the people downvoting my comment I'd be genuinely interested in hearing why people see my comment as damaging to the discussion.

>But there are methods to deal with more or less all of these problems

There are methods to deal with designing experiments poorly, but even the best experiment could have some unknown unknown issue that skews the results. Physics has an inherent advantage that experimental mistakes often lead to results which contradict theory to such an extent that the experimenter can be fairly sure the experiment is in error.

> In my opinion being able to replicate results should still be required to accept a theory.

Strongly agree, however replication often becomes harder to achieve as the complexity of the system you are measuring increases. Photons are simple in ways that humans just aren't. For example various mental disorders only appear in certain cultures, the culture of a photon isn't a problem a physics experimenter needs to worry about. With studies on humans there are so many more places for failure to occur both in the original study and in the replication. Training matters, but the task is significantly more difficult.
I still use facebook (minimally), but wrote a Grease Monkey script to auto-delete anything older than 90 days. This way I can still keep the Aunties/Parents etc happy with photos of the kids, but that it only lives on there a short while.

I also wrote a program to pull down all of my favourite comics as they were published. But I can't say I really read them offline much. It was probably more the collector in me wanting a copy, rather than having to go to the site.

Other than that, I think all of my automation is is my work-life.

It applies to all technologies. I seriously thought we got past this "we only do science, we're not responsible for its use" shit during the Manhattan Project.

That's not to say that various technologies shouldn't exist (certainly not encryption), or that researchers should be liable in a legal sense. But everyone who develops technology has a responsibility to consider the harm it might cause, alongside the good it might do.

Thanks for the input. Yeah I suspect it may be this way.
I know of no psychologist or neuroscientist who even try for a 'standard model' level of understanding of brain function.
Maybe you should see a doctor if you're forgetting your friends' names.
Not so much catching up as long surpassed.
When I worked in the fertilizer industry I was friends with another dealer who was in the Holland area. When crops were being planted we worked seven days a week.

I couldn't understand it why he didn't try being open on Sunday. He told me he could be open on Sunday but if he did he wouldn't have the business to stay open the other six days of the week.
“Just run it through a company” isn’t the whole story. You also have to qualify as a trader and file an election to use the mark-to-market rules, and then you actually have to do mark-to-market accounting.
What is old is new again. We'll probably go in this direction for a decade or three, breaking things up. Then we'll go the other way again, integrating everything into one chip again.

Since it sounds like you are doing a cold call and pitch, I don't think you know if this vc you target funds at your stage and has a suitable investment hypothesis. While this one could work out, I would set expectations with you that you will need to pitch 10 to 20 vcs to know if you have a fundable pitch.

Remember that not fitting the vc model might still mean you have a great business, they just have a particular model.

There are a lot of good reasons to do your first round through Kickstarter, for example, if you have a direct to consumer product.

But you could also argue that algorithms can be expressed through Language by trivially converting them into a purely semantic/logic representation. Is then anything that can be expressed through Language not patentable because it is trivially reduced to words?
Hard line regulations like that usually create more problems than they solve. What we need is to create incentive structures that achieve those goals. Like implementing a land value tax for example.
> For example, without a patent granting rights to do operation XYZ, then a competitor may say that the company is doing something forbidden and needs to stop.

Just FYI, a patent doesn't "grant rights to do operation XYZ". Patents only allow you to forbid others from doing XYZ. That means that you can have a patent that covers XYZ, but if someone else has a patent to do X (or XY), then they can stop you from doing XYZ.

It's a nested VPN chain, for online compartmentalization. Like proxychains, except providing full network connectivity.

And actually, this VirtualBox host can run several different nested VPN chains. Dedicated to different personas. And those chains can be provided as "LANs" to other VirtualBox hosts, which can extend them through other VPN services. And of course, Tor.

Hypothetically, yes. But FPGA's are very area-hungry; a big powerful one isn't going to fit nicely into a modestly sized package along with lots of other chips.
Take a good developer, someone who is motivated and enjoys their job and who has charisma and inter-personal skills.

Now tell them that they will not be able to code anymore and, intead, that they will have to deal with other developers' problems.

You need to offer a good raise for that.

> Who really does understand how a SQL engine work?

Presumably, at a minimum, all the people who work on such engines, including committees to the various open-source ones.

But also lots of other people.

> Don't you usually require to understand how something work before starting using it?

No. Very few programmers understand how compilers work before they start using them. I'd say it's more common to require working on something to really understand how it works than the reverse.

> I think SQL was designed when RAM was scarce and expensive, so to speed up data access, it has to be properly indexed with a database engine. I really wonder who, today, have data that cannot fit in RAM, apart from big actors.

Indexing is no less important for in-memory data access.
Isn't that mostly a supervised learning technique? Maybe the larger question is whether learning in the brain is better described as unsupervised or supervised.
Hand-managed servers should not exist anymore outside of proof-of-concept work. There is no shortage of tools to automate provisioning and deployment, and Kubernetes is one of many options. Bringing up servers should be as automated and reproducible as your CI pipeline for building software -- when you discover problems, go ahead and fix them manually, but then you should update your automated processes to include them.

About one in ten people are gay. If the gender ratio at Intel is greater than 9 men to every woman, then it is more likely that the partner is a male.
Two reasons to not have indexes in the query:

1. Query expresses the result it produces, not the method that was used to obtain it. Semantic vs implementation. It may be a pain to write, but it will be easier to read later.

2. DBA could add/drop indexes on the fly to tune performance of a live system without making any changes to the application code. And being 100% certain he is not changing the semantics of what's going on.

As others noted, if you must you can use query hints for force particular index to be used for a particular operation. MSSQL also allows to pin down a query plan you like for a given query so that it doesn't drift away later due to environment changes.

I agree it is sometimes a pain to force SQL to use the index you wanted it to use.
> the worst that could happen is a design flaw

That's still pretty bad, especially for low-level legacy libraries that aren't supposed to break userspace under any circumstances.
But when the helmet already requires it, the setup is already there, so you might as well use the same equipment to track position of hands.
It seems a little unlikely that the browser manufacturers would enable threads in wasm without (being comfortable with) re-enabling SharedArrayBuffers in JS.

WebAssembly isn't some outside force, it's basically the same people working on WebAssembly integration and what JS features are permitted in browsers. I think they know that these are the same in terms of security risk.
Seems like an odd solution. Can't you just leave a bowl of water out? Does your dog have bladder control issues?
That's not very true. Usually yes, but sometimes moonlight is actually very light and I find it pretty comparable to city lights. In cities, you don't realize how bright moon can get, and it's clearly not bright every single night, but about 2 nights every month it gets pretty bright.
What if instead of open borders, there were no borders.

What if the entire world (democratic regions at least) sign some sort of pact, each city-state gets 1 vote. Each state is taxed x amount to preserve an international military force that's goal is to thwart axis-type powers that might arise, but needs a 60%+ vote from city states.

Maybe an ai of some sort could decide the size/scope of region that equates to fair city-states. -- Travel between cities/states would be open as long as you don't mean harm to the area. Cities/states could set their own solutions to problems like healthcare, drugs, basic income, jobs, etc...

I think large governments like USA/Canada/EU/China create represive regimes, smaller self-governed entities could run things better locally, and still have open communications/trade/etc with nearby states/cities. It would also be less-prone to corruption as you'd need to pay thousands more politicians (ones in each locality) instead of just in D.C.

Personally, I'd love to start a blockchain/identity project to create a universal basic income with fool-proof/sybil-attack proof identity system, making fiat currencies un-needed and creating one-world blockchain-based currency, that helps alleviate pain caused by automation. I think a monetary system like this could take away some of the power and corruption from government.

Here's a video from Mattracks (2014) where the geometry changes like you've suggested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zTxMwYM1tI#t=20s - that should start at 20 seconds in.

Can anyone who used Docker Swarm/Mesos/Nomad and then switched to Kubernetes comment on anything that was done better by Swarm/Mesos/Nomad?

I invested in Kubernetes early and always meant to give the others a try (so I could at least know the differences), but never got a chance to.
There is no dissonance here. I'm fully aware that small companies are screwed in this process. They also aren't relevant. Just like with nuclear weapons, no one cares about the countries that don't have one. They only care about the evil countries that do have one.

Same thing here. Big companies have large patent portfolios. If my company doesn't have one as big as the evil corp, then my company will have problems when they sue.

And having a large patent portfolio does protect against trolls -- because if you're cross licensed with another big portfolio, you can use all of those to defend yourself in the suit. The trolls know this and will be less likely to sue the companies with large cross licensed portfolios.
Why is facebook responsible?

I mean ultimately it's just a social network/communication technology. It's not at all setup to police people's speech, so there'd be a huge cost to dealing with that.

If anything, it could enable the local government to do the policing and prevent hate killings. Unless the government itself is participating in that. Then who's to blame here? (The government/people are)
Very interesting article. However, after he explained the dogma of otherness and got other people to agree that it is what they believe, it would have been a lot more direct to ask them if there is any way to determine if this belief is correct or not.

He could also asked them why it is bad for people to believe in absolute truths. They likely would have answered that it leads to the West oppressing other nations, and then he could have pointed out that that the belief oppression is bad is a Western one, and not even all Westerners believe it, and many non-Western cultures believe quite differently.

I have thought a lot about the D of O, and have come to the conclusion that the people who advocate it don't actually believe it. You can see this because they have absolute moral responses when another culture does something that clearly violates liberal norms, like female genital mutilation. And ditto when it comes to their evaluation of the views of other people in our own culture, like conservatives. The D of O advocates clearly believe that there are absolute factual and moral truths, and that they have them.

So why do they pretend to believe the D of O? That is a long, complicated story, but a large part of what happened was back in the 1950's Marxism ran into a dead end where it couldn't win people over through normal direct political argument. And then many French radical intellectuals responded to this problem by coming up with a new two-part persuasion strategy.

The first part is to try to get people who believe in capitalism to give up their views by persuading them there is no absolute truth so they would abandon their beliefs as to why the free market is the best economic philosophy. And then once the leftist had accomplished that they would change positions and persuade the now-former capitalism supporter that Marxism is the absolute best.

Needless to say, this strategy has failed, but it has unfortunately left us in the position where a great many Americans say things that are nonsense and that they don't actually believe.
I could see this being useful if you lived in a text based editor like emacs.
I used to notice something similar in college.

cough We were smoking a lot of... various things. I had setup a chill room that didn't have any air conditioning (so it was actually very hot; a hot box if you will). Just a small room where smoke would accumulate.

At any rate, I got very good at blowing smoke rings. In the still room, you could blow a smoke ring and it would expand for about a minute before dissipating. The more substantial rings would do something really crazy. They'd spawn a new, smaller ring, but going the opposite direction. I believe this was only the case if the ring was blown upward.

I don't know if this is related to the Two Vortex Ring Collision experiment, but it was definitely fun to watch!
No I'm saying the opposite, SRV was a a potential cure
Self describing as someone who literally only buys smash for their console, I think you need to consider that you're heavily biased. Smash can be a wonderful addition for a wonderful community, but the smash community is a pretty small minority of Nintendo gamers.

Sometimes I wish the game that became the "everyone's in it!" game for Nintendo wasn't a fighting game. Limited appeal. Some sort of adventure/rpg game would have been much more Nintendo with a broader appeal. Now that would have potential to be the great Nintendo capstone epic.
I don’t think it is worth changing the link. They are not the exact same material and anyone interested in SQLite should just watch both.
