Centerboards are not keels. You may not care about dinghies such as e.g. Lasers, but there are a whole hell of lot more of them around than there are keeled yachts. Neither of which have a damn thing to do with this discussion, since as I already noted and you repeated they're both much safer than ducks. This thread is like a parody: a stream of idiotic "well, actually"'s.
I've never been crazy enough to ask this; but it's simple - Do you actually want to be doing this work, or do you do this work because you need to survive?
The stdbuf command exists on FreeBSD. On NetBSD, this functionality is achieved by setting the STDBUF environment variable.
Pretty simple I scrape renting objects and buying objects and then use xgboost to predict renting prices of an object. Then I apply the prediction to the buying object. Voila. It’s cool because you can see what features drive prices.
I'm not quite sure I fully buy into it. Crime has been steadily declining all over the Western world since the '90s, with a few notable exceptions like Baltimore post-BLM, and so the entire VRU concept may be specious. New York has seen its murder rate plunge 75% since its height in 1990 despite not employing this technique, which is a larger drop than Glasgow experienced. Perhaps doing nothing would have been just as effective? Or perhaps this:

>This meant ramping up traditional penal measures – increased stop-and-search and stricter sentencing for knife possession – alongside preventive measures in line with the public health approach.

Resulted in all of the most recalcitrant offenders being put behind bars right at the onset of the program, leaving behind only those people more amenable to non-violence.

Or put another way, when the doctor mentions seeing constant repeated faces in her ER:

>Often, the same people would come back through the accident and emergency departments again and again, repeated victims and perpetrators of violent attacks.

Would simply locking up every one of those people have produced a similar or greater drop in violent crime compared to the VRU approach? Is the "violent interceptor" and community outreach and counselors and all that simply gilding a lily?

Also:

>The incident has stayed with her, an indication of how bad the situation in her city had become.

Well that or it's 1890s Germany. The Junkers loved to scar each other on the face with their dueling swords, as a way to prove their manhood and as a mark of inclusion in the aristocratic orders.

Some cultures get barbed wire tattoos around their arm, others a superficial slashing wound to the face. Tomato tomato ....that expression really doesn't work in text.

There's a few changes. Discover repos has been moved to the dashboard. Your repos and teams are now in the sidebar that sticks to the top.
Unitialized bytes can NOT be considered "ordinary bytes" on x86. This is because of memory paging and copy-on-write. If a memory is untouched, it is allowed to map to a different physical memory on different accesses, so the contents are not only "unknown", they may change under your feet! You must touch the memory page for this not to happen.
I don't get it either. It seems like a big clapping for hot air. Yeah, it's great that there's a proper build, serve and events responsibility group, and now what? What's the "killer app" here, "the use case"?

This seems nice though: https://github.com/knative/docs/tree/master/serving#more-sam...

It seems to have OpenTracing (Zipkin) integration: https://github.com/knative/docs/blob/master/serving/debuggin... (you need to install elasticsearch and stuff for it of course: https://github.com/knative/docs/blob/master/serving/installi... )

And assigning a custom domain: https://github.com/knative/docs/blob/master/serving/using-a-... ... okay, I was hoping that I can specify a whole URL where to mount the "app" (something like https://my.fancy.pants.tld/api/app2/

It seems to me that the weakest part of this is build currently. Mostly because that's what's pretty linear and one-off, and well explored by other projects (GitLab CI/CD can easily run on and deploy to k8s), and knative is mostly about serving and eventing, meaning all the interaction between the lifecycles of stuff on k8s.
It's comments like this which make me think that the state stack should be on the connection handle rather than on a worker unit... or maybe they're the same thing.
Makes me wonder what the existing organizations will do instead. Removing drug money will make them much less powerful, but they sure won't go down without a pivot.

I'd like to think that Disney execs are smarter than you give them credit for.

The reason I compared Milo and Gunn is because both of them were deplatformed (by Simon and Schuster and Disney respectively) for making comments related to pedophilia. Milo says he was an abuse victim himself, Gunn says they're jokes. I don't know so I won't judge. But I'm pointing out that making shocking statements to gain popularity can be easily misused by your opponents (on all political sides), with career-ending consequences.

That happens to me too! PIN keys, or bank passwords I know I know, if I try to think to remember them, I'm unable to remember them correctly. Instead, just seeing the input interface, blank my brain and I start pressing keys... And I write them down perfectly!

Valter Longo is a tenured professor that's been nominated for a Nobel Prize based on his work in nutrition and fasting. I'd hardly call him an alchemist.

There are lots of us living very healthy lives on this "mythical" high carb diet. The Okinawans, for example, before their diet was corrupted by processed western foods, got 85% of their calories from sweet potatoes and were the healthiest and longest lived people in the world.

The only B vitamin that's difficult to get on a high carb diet is B12. But that's only because we've removed the bacteria that produce it from our diet by sterilizing our water supplies and improving food hygiene. Animals also get it from bacteria and a lot of commercial meat has added B12. Check here for an exhaustive list of B vitamin sources:

Sure, I thought I made that clear in my post. Also I didn't want to imply that this is good code or code anyone should write. However I still think when learning C or explaining the language it is vastly helpful to go with the analogy of pointers being integers, since it is so much easier to grasp. Which doesn't mean that shouldn't come with a big warning not to write weird unsafe code and everything; but even if the standard would actually mandate that any form if crazy pointer arithmetic would be defined behavior I wouldn't exactly encourage anyone to write code like that.
That's not fine, because processing a single request often involves waiting on some I/O, and the thread can service (a part of) another request in the meantime. Which is what modern event loop driven servers do - but this doesn't play well with thread locals, or abstractions implemented on top of them, because now your single physical thread effectively runs multiple cooperatively scheduled logical threads/requests.
People used to engage in hate speech in every subreddit. Several months before /r/hatpeoplehate was banned, every single submission containing a fat person was flooded with insults unrelated to the topic. The same thing happened with older racist subreddits.

Disgustingly ingenuous! Any language can be used to implement the factory design pattern.
Good point.
The way BSD people look at this issue - 3rd party apps are sort of out of consideration.

I think they actually consider it to be self-contained.

[UPD] But I haven't checked how NetBSD handled y2038. It might be that they didn't break the ABI. In some parts, I think, OpenBSD/FreeBSD/NetBSD just converted time_t to an unsigned 32-bit int.

Don't forget that it still needs to synchronize across process boundaries, too - two processes, both running SQLite, and both accessing the same database file, is a supported scenario.
I only spent two hours driving through Honduras years ago (the part between El Salvador and Nicaragua is very skinny) but the police tried that three times. They got it right at the border, but the other times we got away with just acting dumb for an hour until they got tired of us (easy to do since we spoke no Spanish.) I'd never go back there, life is finite and there are less dangerous, nicer countries to visit.

> That's just bad engineering. "Seems unlikely, therefore we ignore it" is essentially how you create broken corner cases that result in unreliable systems, i.e., braindead.

I can only assume, then, that your "simple" example wasn't simple at all, but a contrivance to result in such a corner case.

You've also confused "we ignore it" with "we consciously decide not to bother with it".

> That's not a justification for building bad systems, that's only an explanation for why bad systems survive once they have been built.

This is a distinction without a difference. This isn't a moral issue, so "justification" is irrelevant.

There are only tradeoffs. Insisting that the design was just bad, broken, unreliable, or braindead, while not even acknowledging the tradeoffs (i.e. ignoring the positives or, instead, calling them negatives) strikes me as disingenuous.

> You might as well say that fraud improves survivability.

Nope. That's a strawman.

> In which case that philosophy was braindead then?

I urge you to read the essay and the commentary around "Worse is Better". Otherwise, all this is essentially just a shallow dismissal.

You have, in essence, argued in favor of the "MIT method". As I said, this argument was already given, by the original proponents, the mentioned essay's author, and numerous other reasonably well known names in computer science, mostly decades ago. A web search or even just Wikipedia can provide jumping off points.

From the article:

"Where could a public health approach to violence be introduced next? One possibility is London, where in 2017 knife crime among under-25s reached a five-year high. In recent months, the Metropolitan Police commissioner, Cressida Dick, and the mayor, Sadiq Khan, have been among those calling for a public health approach."

There was yesterday.
When the US pot market became saturated through legalization the cartels just shifted to other drugs. If you legalize those they will shift to something else. With the money, power and guns they have I don't think expecting them to take legal jobs is realistic.

If you legalize drugs in Mexico though and they can start legitimate companies that might end the violence, but would be a huge blow to the rule of law.

Oh, I miss Deis, but congrats on the MS acquisition.

I think looking at build is not interesting, because it seems that knative currently focuses on the serving and events part (some thoughts on this you might find interesting: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17607401 )

The repository is just an example. Using an internal repo seems just as easy.
You're right, it's not exactly adware. Adware is software that's supported by ads. Windows 10 users pay for it, and also get the ads (for free!), so technically it's worse than adware.
There are many aspects to violence but I think it comes down to opportunity cost.

Until the police/military are strong and law abiding enough, cartels will continue to see violence as a risk worth taking even if their main business becomes legal.
Reading this kind of reminded me of old Christian Slater movies like Pump up the Volume and Heathers, and other movies of the GenX era. (But, I’m sure films of
the 60s fit, as well)

Hopefully this is a sign that this generation is forming its identity and ready to express it with some real cultural movements! I’ve been waiting eagerly for their cultural identity to emerge and express itself with authentic art, music, film, etc.

However, I also find the essay ironic. When the Internet first went mainstream, one phenomenon was “the lurker” - the fact that most, the mass majority, of internet users only “consumed content” (although, back then it wasn’t called content). That’s because few of us felt confident enough to claim enough expertise to share much. Therefore, most of us just “lurked”. We let the experts speak, and we indulged in surfing on their knowledge.

In this “Instagram era”, though, everyone is expected to be a “content creator”. (e.g. everyone has a github!) But, to be one, one unfortunately misses out on a long history of prior work. One gets so bogged down by creating new content and reading all of the new content created within the previous few hours, that much of the past 108 years of knowledge and wisdom isn’t fully accessible. And, although the author seems to try to escape that vortex, they also seem to have ignored that they’re mostly reinventing ideas that were created between McLuhan and 2010.

But, that is ok! I actually read the whole thing and enjoyed it (because it also kinda reminded me of reading Zines). Yeah, as others have said, it could use some editing, but at least it has paragraphs!
I wasn't talking about that paragraph, but the following paragraph where they had tests, but they didn't test with large enough packets.

Tests can never cover every scenario. They are very useful, and they catch a lot of unexpected regressions. But they're just a part of the puzzle, not a replacement for good development practices.

Updating a dependency without bothering to read the release notes because you have tests -- maybe naive is the wrong word, maybe hubris fits better.

I dumped meat and dairy as I was also finding the more of that I ate the more time I spent on the toilet. Then you start to read up on what you're actually eating and being an animal lover it all just added up for me.

I should have added that I have also found exercise really helps me as well. High cardio if I feel I could be getting an attack coming usually see's it off.
Thanks for the correction. Clearly I should not have skimmed so lightly.
HP MicroServer with FreeNAS at home, it pulls down backups from my vservers and pushes encrypted parts of local data back there.

Every few months I manually sync most of the NAS onto an external, encrypted HDD (just bought a fresh 3 TB one) and that will be stashed in other parts of town/out of country with family. It's my last line of defense should the apartment burn down or something. Data might be half a year old, but the last 20 years are mostly there. Also it's not too inconvenient.
You can have versioned packages inside a mono-repository, too, though. /common_libs/foo_lib_v1.13/, /common_libs/foo_lib_v1.14/, etc.
The tobacco lobby was quite successful debunking that myth. Cannabis had no lobby yet.

The association is likely tied to self medication. Tobacco contains a low level monoamine inhibitor, these have some uses in psychiatry. (it is the main bit that is addictive - not really nicotine alone - harman and norharman, related to harmaline)

Still All on One Server: Perforce at Scale (2011) [pdf]
I think there's a Kong ingress controller, that gets you a very powerful nginx setup.

https://github.com/Kong/kubernetes-ingress-controller

Knative uses parts of Istio for servign and TLS/SSL setup: https://github.com/knative/docs/blob/master/serving/using-an...

It's a bit funny that knative serving is so complicated I have still no idea what they use under the many layers of abstraction (probably something hacked together in go), and I don't understand why don't they use a generic configurable ingress component.
> I don't have a horse in this race but if you have, say, a security issue and that needs to propagate downstream where does your responsibility end in that situation?

This is an issue that needs to be managed, from the systems I've seen it tends to be managed poorly, that's in both monoish repos and multi-repo setups as well as everyone using third party packages. I don't think committing everything to trunk is a good way to resolve it though, they only upside to this approach is that it might force you to resolve it.

What I have to deal with much more frequently is the opposite problem, we have an urgent update that will break several things but has to be deployed for one dependent binary ASAP and fixing the rest of the universe first is not an option.

Worst case it might create some security issues, something that should be a breaking change getting kludged into a new breaking change but still being broken.

Given the history of graphics issues (many of which where related to heat causing capacitors or GPUs to misbehave) I'm not at all surprised that their testing of heat-related issues is subpar to what you would expect. The fact they sell fan-less machines despite a history of heat-related issues in almost every solid-aluminimum-construction laptop they've released seems particularly negligent to me.

EDIT: If you'd like more information than just heresay, watch some of Louis Rossmann's videos on macbook heating problems (the video on tantalum capacitors is particularly interesting).

Of course, cleaning up the mess would be great with a new Constitution. But the time is not right for that, reason is not hip enough nowadays.

The Legend of the Mapogo Lions
> “The idea that’s wrong is that these people are ‘bad’ and we know what to do with them, which is punish them,” says Slutkin. “That’s fundamentally a misunderstanding of the human. Behaviour is formed by modelling and copying. When you’re in a health lens, you don’t blame. You try to understand, and you aim for solutions.”

Analyzing our current justice system from this perspective shows just how absurd it is. Sending people to jail for committing minor crimes is like sending people to a smallpox quarantine camp for coughing.
