Stubby and Chubby are not related to Borg's scalability.

The reason Kubernetes scalability was originally not so great was because it simply wasn't prioritized. We were more concerned with building a feature set that would drive adoption (and making sure the system was stable). Only once Kubernetes began to have serious users, did we start worrying about scalability. There have been a number of blog posts on the Kubernetes blog over the years about what we did to improve scalability, and how we measure it.

I'd encourage you to join the Kubernetes scalability SIG (https://github.com/kubernetes/community/tree/master/sig-scal...) to learn more about this topic. The SIG is always interested in understanding people's scalability requirements, and improving Kubernetes scalability beyond the current 5000 node "limit." (I put that in quotes because there's no performance cliff, it's just the maximum number of nodes you can run today if you want Kubernetes to meet the Kubernetes performance SLOs given the workload in the scalability tests.)

AWS’s response to ALB internal validation failures
Thanks for the link to the indictment. With those accusations I can see why people think about tampered voting machines. Still very far from actual tampering in my view.

And that's where I wonder why at the outset of an investigation into whether voting-machines have been tampered with, the Russian state should be assumed to have done it.
JVM's most significant vulnerability is non-technical, and it's already been p0wned by the Larry Ellison Attack.

Does WASM have in place any mechanisms to prevent Oracle or other malicious destructive companies from co-opting it, copyrighting its APIs, and running it into the ground for profit?

How? When I post something and it happens to be recently posted, it automatically becomes an upvote. I'm generally fine with it, except when it has 1-5 votes and will never see the front page.

HN has so many secret behaviour that it became boring by now. I don't think I will bother posting a story again, because it's very hard to get some discussion to happen around a post (which is the whole point of posting a link for me), whereas in most Reddit subs, even if your post is in the -1 to 1 votes range, you can still get useful answers or interesting comments.
Yep, always talk to the person who made a WTF-inducing change. It's even possible they've thought of something you didn't.
The age you feel means more than your actual birthdate
I agree with you, I was surprised to see this on the front page as well. I guess it's because this is Netflix's [being a California tech company] first real effort to enter the Indian market. Hence it implies the consequences this launch could have on its position [and Prime's too] in the Indian market as it establishes itself in a country with a [relatively] mature entertainment / cinema industry.

Now that it's here, it's good for you to have commented here expressing your concern.

However, the comments you've linked surprise me even more as they represent pure hate. I'm curious to know which forum they are from, anyone?
However, let's not go too far: I think DRY is a good default for new programmers. They can learn to break that rule as they gain experience.
It sounded like they cut out a lot of the BS from the job and these are presumably jobs that are productive. I would be curious how this could possibly play out in jobs that are mostly BS as described by David Graeber's recent book.

I am most curious about the meeting reduction. Were the previously longer meetings containing inefficient communications that were replaced with efficient ones? long debates that no one had the desire for anymore? wandering conversations that were curtailed? completely pointless stuff that simply vanished? How did the meeting runners handle their diminished role?
Those psychopaths already have the capability to terrorize entire cities. And they don't do it. Everyone you pass on the street every day could kill you easily before anyone could do anything to stop them. But it's not something you have to worry about. Because people mostly aren't willing to do harm to others. And for no other reason. Police and most other measures only have effect afterwards, and deterrence doesn't work. The moral sense of those around you is what protects you, and always has.
Im sorry, but that seems.. unsound..

If i remember Cantors infinity theorem correctly, you can recombine sets to basically proof that the resulting set is bigger then the original sets.

Now the naive assumption is that to recombine a set, you have to have the original sets "stored" somewhere. But assuming you have enough computation time, you can travel lightly - aka have tail-call eliminated recursive threads go back to the origins of such a set, following a formula and recompute both the values.

Thus, you could have infinite reasonable work to do, with finite computation power?

It's a matter of who's available to upvote at specific times, and whether the topic makes for a nice read at those times. Sometimes a deeply technical topic or a very lengthy article aren't the best fit for the mood :). Other times they are.
Agreed. To me, the real point is not to be afraid to undo an abstraction that has proven to be more trouble than it's worth. DRY is still a good default mode of thinking.
No. The point of the article is that it's ok to undo an abstraction that has done more harm than good. Abstraction and DRY is still a good default mode of thinking.
It used to be you could add something trivial to the URL like a trailing slash or some non-existent params et voila! New submission.
My age is not something I feel. It's something I am. To me "I feel like I'm x" where x is a number is just an absurd statement. My health, my mood, etc does not have some quantifiable link to my date of birth and the time that has elapsed since.
Actually the results now show lots of 'news' sites saying 'This is what happens when you Google idiot".

It seems that sometimes, high karma accounts can submit a dupe. But I don't think it always works. Maybe it's a lower dupe submission check timeout.

As for submissions, I'd recommend trying to land in the American morning/early European afternoon. That's when most people seem to browse and thus you have a better chance of getting upvoted to the front page.

I don't mind when people only read the comments, honestly. As you say, sometimes the comments are more insightful than the article. But I do think that anyone making a comment related to the article should have read the article. Otherwise it's the blind leading the blind.
This is a good concept for anyone who has to manage people. I don't think it only applies to a binary split between 100% ownership and none. Letting developers guide the project to some degree, instead of slogging through sprint after sprint based purely on sales team goals, will get you a happier team and hopefully higher quality product.
Btw I was referring to the vitriolic comments.

We pointed it out in the article when we said it will get worse.
You can actually build an Omega vertical / Mesos framework architecture on Kubernetes, as described in this doc[1]. That doc pre-dated CRDs; the way you'd do it today is to build the application lifecycle management part of the framework using a CRD + controller, and run an application-specific scheduler (for pods created by that controller) alongside the default scheduler. The Kubernetes documentation page explaining how to run multiple/custom schedulers is here[2].

Borg only worked with a single scheduler, but Kubernetes allows you to build Omega/Mesos style verticals/frameworks and associated scheduling as user extensions to the control plane (as described above).

Here's vekker's list without the formatting:

* Organisation of the notes is cumbersome: it wasn't clear to me what is meant with a note and a section, and how to actually start writing (I would expect to be able to start writing right away rather than first creating a notebook/section/note, choosing a title, etc...)

* I would like to tag my notes à la Evernote, and filter notes based on this.

* Speaking of searching/filtering: it would be nice to list all search results (and organisation of the notes for that matter) in the main view.

* Maximise screen real estate for the actual note taking: why is there such a huge header and side nav... on a 13" screen I barely have room to see my notes. I would like to hide all that in a hamburger menu.

* Keyboard shortcuts!

* The ability to drag and drop images or other documents would be nice

* The text in the textarea when taking a note is so small & there is no padding.
Thanks for clarifying; it wasn't clear to me what you were referring to.
Ndb – An improved debugging experience for Node.js
As someone with a bit of a distance to this, this seems grotesque, bizarre, and disconcerting. That the law is not free is The Onion material. I cannot fathom how one must fight before a court for it.

This extreme hypercapitalism is disturbing.
"Then again, sometimes ideas simply stick with you and resurface unknowingly. I have no doubt that every author has inadvertently thought of an idea that was actually something they read about years ago"

This. Especially on topics where the work is based predominently on a concise/small core idea, such a tune in music. I once had musician friends psyched that they were writing a song based on a really cool riff, only to discover later that said riff was in a track they had heard a decade ago, and that had stuck in a corner of someone's head. They had copied by accident. And they found that out by accident, too, and might very well have ended up pushing a track that would have had them getting called plagiarists.
Yes, even if you are entirely overseas. The US and Eritrea are the only countries in the world that tax all world-wide income. As long as you are a US citizen, you can live anywhere else in the world for however long you want, and you are still taxed in the US and have to file and pay taxes every April.

Not only that, you are required to disclose all of your foreign bank accounts and their balances on a special "FBAR" form to the FinCEN (separate agency from the IRS). Penalties for any "violations" start at $10,000 each (for so-called "non-willful" violations such as using the wrong currency conversion rate or a different bank branch address) and go up to 25% account value for willful violations (everything is conveniently considered "willful" whenever possible to FinCEN in absence of fact, even the aforementioned common mistakes). Many expats get screwed because they simply didn't know about this esoteric form. Hiring a professional to properly prepare your FBAR with their signature on it is necessary as a form of "insurance" (you are welcome to roll the dice and self-prepare), and of course, it is also an expensive proposition.

There is also no clear guidance for what the disclosure requirements are for foreign cryptocurrency exchange accounts or wallets. Anyone living inside or outside the US with a Binance account could get slammed at anytime in the future for not submitting an FBAR.

If before leaving the US, you lived in California, you also have to pay California state taxes on all world-wide income every year, since you are still considered a California "resident."

There is a foreign earned income exemption up to around 100k. This applies to ordinary income only, not capital gains (e.g. cryptocurrency), and you have to meet rather-stringent requirements to qualify. Also, the exempted income still pushes up your capital gains bracket to the highest applicable rate. This exemption does not apply to your California taxes, only your federal taxes.

You almost never hear about how disfavorable the US tax laws are for expats because there are only 8 million of us.

No taxation without representation, right?
Just flag it, and make a comment pointing to the previous thread so other users and moderators can find it easily.

If there's no previous thread (i.e., a submission of that item in the past 12 months with a significant number of votes and of on-topic comments), it's not a dupe :)
It isn't so out of the question for folks to cheat on their taxes and get caught for it. This happens at all levels of society. It doesn't have to be for much money, after all, just enough to help folks survive. With the US tax code as-is, it is actually pretty easy.

It's actually ₹999
It's not a deduction, it's a credit so it effectively reduces the amount you pay in taxes to the US by the amount you paid to the foreign country.

Also, you do get an additional separate exemption/deduction (i.e. NOT a credit) up to around the first 100k of foreign earned income, if you meet some rather stringent qualifications.

There are ways to structure things using a foreign corporation to reduce your tax liability. This is changing though with the new 2017 Trump Tax "Cuts" and Jobs Act, which now requires expat business owners to report even their leftover business income as their own personal income (GILTI).

Many expat small business owners stand to be financially devastated because the law even taxes previous business income from the last 30 years in a so-called "transition tax." Ouch.
Autopsy of a deep learning paper
Can you point to the point where SIIX's wording is seeking to emotionally manipulate you? I think you're conflating "emotional manipulation" with "using words that have emotional connotations" in an effort to build a strawman.
I think it would be easier if there was no textbox, no click and insert text. Merely click, have a blinking cursor appear, write anywhere. After you've finished writing click again in an empty space and have the text box created, so you can resize it.

Similarly for drawing.

Ditch the boxes altogether while writing/drawing and have them appear afterwards for manipulation.

edit: Other than that your program looks quite promising!

Have you tried the official GitHub client? I've worked at a few places where non developers started to use it because the ability to collaborate through pull requests has so much benefit outside of development. I'm a huge fan of IntelliJ and use the inbuilt git client most of the time, it abstracts most of the complexity. Sourcetree is another good product.
sorry but it's not easier to use than rsync. it's a false assumption
Thanks! I was trying that for drawing a while ago but I was having a lot of trouble getting it to work.

I'm thinking as a compromise for the mean-time I plan to automatically insert the text-box when you have the insert menu open and just start typing.

Thanks for the thoughts. It's great to get constructive feedback.
Thank you very much! The original list was almost unreadable on my smartphone.
My question is that you think the number of cars on the road (not in garages) will drop or rise ?

I think it will rise:

- the people that afford expensive cars now(Tesla,BMW) will continue to own their own cars

- people that can't drive now but have enough money will buy their own cars

- some of the less rich people that own a car will keep using it

- people that use buses would use the new taxis if their are cost effective

So I think we will get more cars so we will have more energy consumed and we need better roads, better electric infrastructures that includes clean energy generation.

About safety my personal opinion is that with current software and hardware we are far for self driving cars in general conditions, we could get this cars maybe to work safely on specific roads.

I am also of the opinion that what Tesla is doing is wrong, aka here is auto pilot, it drives for you but you MUST still be 100% aware of the driving because you must intervene at any time, what advantages has this system ?

-advantage 1 you don't use your hands and legs that much

-no other safety that is not included in the driving asist packages from non self driving cars

- autopilot makes many drivers behave illegally and don't pay attention, the PR shows the cazrs driving themselves where the small print in manual tells you to pay attention 100% of the time

I think I understand your point, I am also frustrated by bad drivers that text, speed and kill people, I want them out of the roads too but it will not be easy to replace human inteligence, driving is a complex process and software and hardware is not there yet (I was an optimist like you about an year ago until the cases with Tesla hitting trucks, police cars and concrete obstacles happened and I read about the fact they have to ignore inputs because there are too many and the hardware is not good enough to process it) maybe Google cars have better sensors,hardware and software and can bring the optimism back for me.
SuperFast LAME technical details
Actually, just for kicks, you might find it interesting to know that quite a few historical monarchies were essentially democracies with extremely limited enfranchisement. A setup where - instead of having a bloody "game-of-thrones" civil war to decide the king - they instead had a large body of nobles vote on the king, was actually pretty common.

In fact our Electoral College, as a name, comes from one of these - during the medieval age, in the western heartland of europe (vaguely covering parts of france, switzerland, germany, italy), there were a bunch of little fiefdoms led by nobles who banded together into a big federation called the Holy Roman Empire. They all collectively voted on which noble would become Emperor, and it took several hundred years before one family was able to bend it into being hereditary.

Ask HN: Why intruders add stolen cards?
A couple of days ago 9 intruders (according to GA, with browser language set to Chinese), created accounts in our SaaS platform and added 9 different billing methods. A payment processor (we use Braintree) declined all the billing methods with an error "Call Issuer. Pick Up Card.". This alludes to the fact that these are stolen cards. Any experience what do the tried to achieve?

Perhaps, later on, they would ask for a refund to another billing method.
The Illusion of Meritocracy
Yes, I totally agree that everyone should work with the wider long term best interests at heart. This covers all sorts of areas, one I'm particularly passionate about is the disgusting states of the streets being strewn with litter. That is due to short term narrow minded laziness in most cases, we should all be proud of the environment and make a little effort to keep it tidy, everyone benefits.

This was an extreme situation though, as one of the other posters mentioned revising for A levels by candlelight, I'm sure that's not something we'd want to become the norm.

I had the same feeling. Nothing awesome about the show. One thing I have begun to dislike with Netflix in general is most of their shows are extreme. Either too violent and dark or way too silly. I cannot watch them just for the sake of time pass or enjoyment without having negative emotions that sometimes lasts for days. Nowadays, even with a Netflix account, 99% of my TV is YouTube. Still I decided to watch Sacred Games since its based on India. Violence and sex on it were not something we would see in an Indian TV show, but overall entertainment value was lacking. The RAW officers were too simple. I find it hard to believe that this is how they operate. Also, its strange that some Indians think showing sex scenes as progressive. I don't want to see sex in regular movie. If I want to watch sex, I will go and watch porn. If one wants to see violence and gore, there are plenty of other websites. Please don't bring it to the masses in the name of progressiveness. Before anybody labels me as Taliban, I fully support public nudity. But sex scenes in these shows and movies are not real. Nudity in movies is a cheap way to get the audience. Make a mediocre show, sprinkle some sex scenes and violence here and there, profit.
