Probably because when they suggested it they had about 10, growing by 1 per 6 months. Then a few years later they end up with 100, growing by a few a month, and need to rethink.

I though this was an honest and interesting look at a decision which in retrospect was a bad idea. Hopefully it'll stop some other people making similar mistakes (too many repos, too many services, fast changing libraries shared between many services, etc...).

It'd be better if it wasn't framed as having found that the one true way is the monolith, but there are some lessons here for most devs.

Please do not abuse these sort of services. Sure, downloading one-offs for legitimate personal use is fine (in my opinion) but please be reasonable and avoid discouraging them of publishing more stuff or even locking down the existing collections more down.

Sure I understand it's bit annoying that they do not provide the higher resolution as downloads, and that they don't have more liberal license. But it is still pretty nice service and reasonably well done imo. This could be the baby steps for more open collections, but egregious abuse probably will not help in getting them into right direction.
Yes, I was frantically adding some of these features at the end of the release, so the docs came a little later :)
The 'environment' is often in balance. Any abrupt change can cause oscillations and crashes. May as well ask "By not removing this brick from the wall, I may be screwing the wall up!"

"We don't have social skills like most people. That's fine. Why is that a bad thing? Those people wear lack of knowledge of logic and mathematics as though it were some badge to be proud of. Which is again, fine! Just don't force me into your archetype of having social skills."

Far too often, "lack of social skills" is used as an excuse for being a jerk, and refusing to think about what their words and their actions.
Good thing companies are putting that big tax cut into hiring more worker and increasing wages. Otherwise, it would just be a big plus for corporate bottom lines and yet again invalidate trickle down, voodoo economics.

The second option would be to deny the inheritance.. I'm pretty sure that most poor people do that. The inheritance is rarely worth the potential liability unless the deceased was financially secure... And this doesn't apply to a big part of the population.

We've got inheritance lawyers in Germany that can help people figure out wherever accepting a specific inheritance is a smart move... But that often isn't really worth it either.

> while all AUR helpers I've seen explicitly ask you if you'd like to first review the files in an editor

The good ones do, yes.

> with a default answer of [Y]es.

And therein lies the problem. You may review a handful up front, but then convince yourself that all is good since it's much easier to just press 'enter' and move on. It's MUCH easier to ignore a PKGBUILD when you have to hit one key to skip it than it is if you have to manually download it, put it somewhere, and 'makepkg' on it.
> That's correct. The logical and emotional parts of your brain literally inhibit one another.

I don't know whether this is true or not. But I am sure that when I do mathematics, I have very strong emotions. These are of a very different kind than the emotions that you find described, say, in a novel. I came to the conclusion that neither the English nor the German language have words for these emotions.
Interesting idea. I've always done all of those parts with tweezers and eyeballs, but some of the TSSOP packages can be a bit of a challenge to line up well enough for reflow.

If you used FR4 instead of acrylic or whatever, you might be able to leave the aligner stencil in place for reflow. That might let you do some of the smaller parts.

Luminosity and the like very well could have failed or had limited effect because brain plasticity is reduced in adulthood. While there are no medical treatments or cures for ASD, the one known effective treatment to improve quality of life outcomes is early behavioral intervention near the age of diagnosis (i.e. 2-4 years of age).

Or perhaps it's prudent and by design. Mosquitos are part of a complex ecosystem that we barely understand. Irreversibly wiping out a _species_ without fully understanding the consequences is a drastic measure.

This, after all, is a guy who works for pmarca, who, having achieved the status of "rich white person", went on to posit in public that the end of colonialism was bad for India: "Anti-colonialism has been economically catastrophic for the Indian people for decades."

Just replying to the top bit, since we're exchanging multiple comment chains. Hadoop, Spark, etc. are built on top of a job scheduler, so if you have multiple competing jobs, it will allocate tasks to resources in a fairly reasonable way. If there is too much contention at some point in time, your jobs will all still run, and portions that can't be scheduled immediately will be delayed while they wait for free nodes. The processing model also generally leads to independence between jobs. You can do job scheduling on a single machine too, of course, but you get it for free with Hadoop/YARN. You don't get it for free with chained bash scripts or a custom single-node solution. And without sophisticated job scheduling, you can't really come too close to fully allocating your machine (when you're not watching carefully), because you'll accidentally exhaust resources and break random jobs.

edit: if you're running on a cloud, you also may be able to autoscale to deal with spiky usage patterns.

I am too lazy to reply to everyone making stuff up, but you went way, way overboard. Bulking is eating a calorie surplus, cutting is eating at a light calorie deficit, it has nothing to do with fasting.

When fighters cut just before weight in, they do so to make sure that they make their weight class cut off or they can't compete. This has nothing to do with fasting - they are forced to do it to stay in weight class, but at the very top of it (being as heavy as possible is overall a boon in the ring).
You could make the same hand-wavy "what-if" arguments about removing smallpox from the ecosystem.

This certainly isn't "otherwise known as feature creep", and you don't necessarily need to do one thing better than anyone else has done. All you need to do is find an opportunity, and grow from there.

The point he is making is not that you will be the next facebook, but that if you start with a small, possibly non scalable idea that works, who knows what it could turn into. And maybe its better to do this than to try to penetrate the market with big picture bullshit.

Like the others said, our JVM apps would require at least 1GB for the JVM and then 1-4GB for heap, depending on the service. This made the average JVM service require about 4GB of RAM in the container scheduler.

Meanwhile our Go services almost never had a working set larger than 256MB and most didn't even need that. We could schedule on average 16 Go services for each JVM service.

I've heard that before. It smacks of confirmation bias promulgated by envious people.

You are mistaken. Not wiping out all mosquitos, just the specific aedes aegypti species from the aedes genus.
Computers can and do label objects missing most of their features. This is especially important in computer vision work for cars, as inaccurately labeling an arm and a head as "not human" could lead to tragedy.

Now, I am sure you know this, so I don't know why you chose to use an example that's inaccurate in practice.
We have these things. A better architect implies that one is trained in analyzing and producing these architectures using the science she/he was trained with: https://www.sei.cmu.edu/education-outreach/credentials/crede...

The certificate means nothing, the training and instruction is priceless. Add to that things like TOGAF and a deep understanding of the current state of existing architectures and you'll understand what I originally meant, but failed to explain.

Packages are vetted, in the repos, just not in AUR.

They also keep tools that would easily/automatically build and install packages from AUR out of the main repos, to encourage manual handling and individual consideration of AUR package build scripts.

Well, genetic programming is a subset of program synthesis, not a same set.

Not really. Mosquitoes, both adults and larvae, serve as an important food source for many animals that humans eventually depend on for food. Many types of juvenile fish eat their larvae, for example, juvenile fish that eventually grow up and become a major source of protein for some groups of people.

You missed a crucial detail:

> * Everyone slowly goes back to the old technology, forgetting the new technology.

This step is just as misguided as cult-y as "Everyone adopts this new technology and raves about how great it is now that they have just adopted it."

In some cases the technology WAS the right idea, just implemented incorrectly or not sufficiently broadly, and the baby ends up getting thrown out with the bathwater.
I think this post (and the home page) would benefit greatly with some example dashboards and queries. You really have to dig deep into the docs to see what it is capable of.

> Far too often, "lack of social skills" is used as an excuse for being a jerk, and refusing to think about what their words and their actions.

I disagree. If you have a very bad model of how something is perceived by others, you will commit blunders. And if you think in a very different way than your counterpart, you often have such a very bad model.

Most people act similarly clumsily towards "engineers"/"programmers", but because they think as the majority thinks, this is not called "social inaptitude", though it is exactly the same problem (perople talking to each other who are "wired very differently").

>Although day to day keto is a lot of fat and meat.

People who do keto do get a majority of their calories from fat, but a majority of long term ketors tend to eat mostly low NET carb vegetables by volume. For example, you could eat a whole small cabbage in a day and not fall outside macros that would allow for a ketogenic state.

>Fasting have other benefits than keto: it activates your immune system, increase you hormone levels, allows many organs to rest and clean themself.

I have seen studies that show many of these as the same benifits of keto. For example, NAFLD resolves within only slightly longer on keto than by fasting. Keto is pretty effective at resolving PCOS for example.

Now, it maybe the case that fasting is more actually effective, but keto unlike fasting is sustainable as a long term lifestyle (conserves LBM etc).

As you pointed out, intermittent fasting and keto are completely compatible.
Restrictions hinder innovation, development and technology. And patents are such restrictions.

The worst cases are the ones that grant monopolies on common or important technologies. They can completely block the progress in certain areas. Even companies with patents stop with innovation until the patent has run dry, if they do any innovation at all.
> "Yet in many cases, scientists acknowledge that the ecological scar left by a missing mosquito would heal quickly as the niche was filled by other organisms."

More concerning than the ecological scar left behind by the eradication of some species of mosquito is the precedent that would be set. Once you've deliberately eradicated one pest species, people will incorporate the knowledge of that action into their image of how the world works and the sort of things we're willing to do. The next time somebody proposes that a species be eradicated, there will almost certainly be less debate.

I've heard people defend the deliberate eradication of mosquitoes by pointing out how we've already deliberately eradicated viruses like smallpox. This demonstrates my concern. What will the eradication of mosquitoes be used to justify? It's already the case in the modern era that angry mobs of idiots need to be restrained from emotional outbursts against animals (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Australian_shark_cull). Having scientists justify the extermination of mosquitoes will only make it harder to get these angry mobs to back down.

I don't really doubt that human-feeding mosquito species could be eradicated without much harm to the environment, but these social concerns remain unaddressed.
