No it’s Googles take on container/compute task scheduling, deciding when and on which machines a task (e.g a docker container) should run. Docker Swarm is Dockers offering in the same category as Kubernetes.

Edit: Though Google could be credited with introducing containers to Linux, as they added the main missing piece, cgroups, to the Linux kernel.

Anecdotally, while Celsius is great in most science and engineering situations, I personally find Fahrenheit more intuitive when discussing outdoor/environment temperatures.

Fahrenheit gives more granularity without the need for a decimal when thinking about temperatures most people would experience on a daily basis.

A normal spring/early summer might have temperatures ranging from 4-38°C or 40-100°F, Fahrenheit gives 60 distinct steps where Celsius provides only 34.

You're coming at it with a framework of thinking that has already been immersed in present ideas about money. Check out, Debt: the first five thousand years. We tend to under estimate how differently people of different time periods and cultures think.

To be fair, with some software we are often not even targeting new users at the expense of power users - we are targeting the audience for our product demos.

If our animations make a punter go wow when they see the product for the first (and only - unless we get to stage 2) time, and they buy it, then it has done its job.

You need to understand that asking for advice doesn't mean you will get helpful answers.

It would be a mistake to ask people about problems they can't comprehend.

You have some things to do - sort your life out, get a job, any job, then progress your career.

The people who can help you with your career might not be the people who can help you with the other stuff.

Learning technologies, getting a position, moving up are all things that take time.

Sorting your life out, earning some money, having fun are what you can do immediately.
Are you reading the same article as me? As they mentioned:

> Loss aversion has been represented as a fundamental principle. Loss aversion is not understood as the idea that losses can or sometimes loom larger than gains, but that losses inherently, perhaps inescapably, outweigh gains. For example, Kahneman, Knetch, and Thaler (1990, p. 1326) describe loss aversion as "the generalization that losses are weighted substantially more than objectively commensurate gains." In a similar fashion, other researchers do not qualify the idea of loss aversion; Tversky and Kahneman (1986, p. S255) state that "the response to losses is more extreme than the response to gains;" and Kahneman and Tversky (1984, p. 342) state "the value function is … considerably steeper for losses than for gains."

The authors are refuting "loss aversion" as Kahneman et al is describing it.

> (i.e. they don't present an alternative theory to explain the papers that purport to demonstrate "loss aversion")

Why do they need to? The paper isn't about trying to explain when losses or gains are most impactful; the paper is about whether or not there's a clear tendency.

In the UK the press like to sensationalise the weather by reporting hot conditions in Fahrenheit and cold ones in Celsius.

The truth is the UK is temperate, and the weather is not so newsworthy. I can remember it being -12 one extreme winter, and it can touch 90 on exceptional summer days.

What has been newsworthy this year has been the extreme long period of sunny hot weather. But since our press are infested with climate-change deniers that has less sensationalist coverage.

It depends.

I used to have my own email server.

Having to manage yet another public server is a stress on its own. Having to worry about server backups, security, DKIM, SPF, DMARC, avoid being blacklisted, etc made it even worse. Despite all of this I couldn't shake off the feeling that my mails went directly to the recipient's spam folder.

I'm not interested in maintaining mail servers. I can certainly do it, but my spare time is scarce.

Nowadays, I periodically sync all mailboxes to my laptop, so that they enter the backup chain I already have. If GSuite goes down or Google disables my account, I'll upload my backups to Fastmail, point the MX records there and go on with my life.

I find this setup way easier to understand and maintain than a mail server.
I think naming the branch and/or the pr title after the jira ticket works too. I think it just needs to contain it, too. My feature branches usually look something like feature/proj-123-short-description. But to be honest, my extended commit descriptions usually contain the ticket number too, so I may be remembering wrong.

Not sure if that's better or worse, though.
I do a git diff after every git status before adding/committing. Do IDEs show diff before committing? Jetbrains IDEs do show diff between subsequent commits. Although they do highlight which files have been modified.
Learning git by heart has immense value if you've got a team that doesn't grok rebasing and merging or just a cross-functional team with QA's commiting to a monorepo.

I can diagnose and fix issues for people in around 5 minutes leaving them with history that works everywhere and I don't need to jump to my workstation for reference on aliases.

Thankfully, people I work with seem to like git, except for the odd git push --force breaking branches for them.

That reminds me that I'll have to teach one QA to do rebases. His merges break our history graph in funny ways.
Interesting idea, but the article greatly downplays the dos angle. Most applications consume fair amount of resources to start up - there are config files to parse, caches to warm, and so on. So there is an imbalance of cost between an attacker, who has to submit another input, and target,who has to restart the process. Hence a great dos angle. Pooling only helps if you can replenish the pool faster than the attacker can drain it.

So if you running a multi-tenant service, where one of the tenants could be a potential adversary, having a crash-bug is enough for a serious denial of service attack.

I think it's very unlikely we will ever concretely define how the brain represents reality in its intrior model.

Given that I can conceptualize the existence of the letter "A" on the back face of a red square box sitting on a black floor and hypothetically view it face on,reflected in a mirror behind, through the box backwards if it's translucent, and the box doesn't even have to exist ... And then intrude being asked to put my hand into some three-space simulating feedback environment and "feel" the box which isn't there, or add VR glasses and "see" the box which isn't there...

Now consider a classic nuclear hot box, and put a real cube inside it and interact through the remote sensor waldoes.

Is that feeling any different? Is the brain model any different?

You are kidding yourself if you think you can tell the difference between 23.0°C and 23.5°C.

If you want to send emails, don't run it from home. Most mail server will increase the spam level of an email coming from a dynamic ip or where the reverse dns doesn't match the name of the server.

If you just want to receive emails, then it depends how long is your downtime. Smtp requires that the sending server makes several attempts if the first failed, so if you are only off for a few minutes to a few hours, you will get your emails, just delayed. If full day downtime then this is not a viable solution.

If you need to send emails, then you kind of have to host your server in a datacentre. A cheap VM should probably be a good solution for a first attempt. You will still get downtime occasionally (update OS, update mail software, problem with your hosting provider). A cheap solution is to set up a failover server at home since it is only to receive emails while the primary server is down, with a lax retry policy (up to a few days).

Big words don't count as evidence. The article brings absolutely no new information to the table. Heck, I think this article's a clickbait.

The basic principle behind loss aversion is simple.

What's the primary motive behind an action - Running away or running towards? Prevention or gain.

For instance. Yesterday an article about American child care was on HN.

American parents are acting primarily to PREVENT injury, discomfort or death of their children. That's action motivated by loss aversion.

Japanese, maya parents still want safety for their children but independence of their kids is a primary motivator for their action. In other words gain.

I think the author is confused about something. I want more money and I don't want to lose the ones I have. Both feelings aren't mutually exclusive. However at the point of decision I could be swayed more by greed or by fear.

If a site, seller or investment is shady, fear wins. I'll protect myself. If not, greed or gain could win in that instance.

I could speed down towards a party one moment. And a near miss could make me reconsider and slow down. Both modes occurred on the same journey. No grammar by some clickbaity author would change that.
This goes for homebrewing (beer/wine) too. If you can make oatmeal you can make beer, but if you want to make the same beer exactly the same over and over it is very complex. The fact that Budweiser tastes the same all over the US and is made in 12(?) different locations is a testament to how good the brewers are (even if beer snobs don't like it).

As for coffee, even the foam on top of an espresso is complex.

> Did not even have to go to check the sources

Yeah, it would be terrible if you read through 59 pages of well-cited, well-explained text and tried to understand what the author is saying. Might as well judge everything from one sentence in an online article written for popular audiences.

> He refuted himself right there, in the article.

That example is showing an example of Status Quo Bias that is completely orthogonal to losses/gains: People prefer inactivity to activity. If you construct an experiment where doing nothing constitutes the "loss" (e.g. keeping an item) and doing something is the "gain" (e.g. obtaining a new item) then you would expect people to prefer the first choice. For loss aversion to be a general principle you need to decouple it from the status quo bias.
I'm not going by stereotype here, I'm going by my personal experience. Now what probably is happening is I'm confirmation biasing a bit, it probably isn't quite 9/10 but it's enough that I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it myself.
Hi. UX designer here who reads Hacker News as a way of keeping tabs on what geeks are up to :-)

I think the article is generally correct when it concludes that we're on the wrong path. But I'd just like to assure the "engineering community" that the "design community" is fully aware of this and has been since about 2003 (mainly due to the effects of Flash at time - remember the loading screens?).

Part of the problem stems from the fact that UI design has swung into a bit of a dark age at the moment in terms of usability. Most designers are "visual designers" who don't know much about the history or practice of interaction design as developed by Norman, Raskin, Tognazzini, Nielsen, Cooper and others. With so few interaction designers around it's not surprising that UIs are designed to just look good rather than also work well. Some of the main issues are summarised here: https://www.fastcompany.com/3053406/how-apple-is-giving-desi...

I'd also point out that this means engineers are probably just as confused about the difference between visual design and interaction design, since there are so few people to look to who are practising the latter. So articles like the one at brandur.org will be written as though they are broaching new issues on the topic. In fact, discussions around the advantages of CLUIs are pretty old and nothing in the article is particularly new in that regard.

The only thing I'd say after that is a minor point: he says native phone apps are faster and more responsive than web ones. Is that true? The apps I have on my phone mostly use webviews or network API calls for large parts of their UX which is by definition practically the same speed as the web, no? At least, I can't tell any difference between using, say, Amazon's native app to search for and buy something compared to if I go to Amazon with my phone's browser.
I think a lot of it is denial and wanting not to admit it to yourself, or to put up the appearance everything is ok. We can get pretty good at even lying to ourselves.

I used IPSec before because OpenVPN was just too slow.

Is Wireguard similar to OpenVPN when it comes to configs?
I too use Streisand. It has a vast plethora of options. I would warn this blessing can become its achilles heel as this introduces a potentially large attack space. I limit every deployment of it to Wireguard and OpenConnect only as these are the only options I use.
Guest Wifi. I maintain a strict "guests aren't allowed on the main wifi" rule. The password is 100 characters and if I find a guest on the wifi the password is rotated.

Happened once then they stopped and just handed out the guest password.
If you pay even just 5 bucks a month, you get access to their support which is overall pretty good.

G Suite is worth the price tag just for that if you actually use Google products seriously...
Thanks for the reply!

I'm not sure I fully understand (or buy into) Blockchain, so forgive me for probing further on this, but: I'm still not sure how blockchain is helping here? Can't you get the same results by just publicly publishing the articles with an open license? That's kind of how things work right now in open-access journals (or with something like StackOverflow, for that matter) and it works fine, what is blockchain adding here? There are tons of copies of StackOverflow's data running around in mirrors, they are (or it's easy to do) hashed for a crypto signature, so you can't just change their text on people. No one can ask money for the answers because they are licenses CC.

So what is Blockchain adding to this? As I understand it, what blockchain provides is most importantly an incentive mechanism, to make people actually donate the PC time to store things (iiuc), but it seems to work fine in popular cases without having the incentive mechanism (e.g. StackOverflow), and I'm guessing if it isn't popular, then just cause it's on a blockchain doesn't change anything and no one will bother storing it?

But again, I'm not sure I understand what you're talking about, so I'd be more than happy to be corrected.
Conservative Americans are a powerful political force in the USA, and see any attempt to change to modern / European / scientific (take your pick) units as an attack on their traditions / America / ancestors. Therefore no one can even suggest it.

This clearly wasn't always the case, but the polarisation of American politics continues to increase.

It's similar in Britain, except there was more progress there before Conservative people took it as an attack on tradition and made it political, and more pressure (legal and practical) to conform with the rest of Europe.
In Norway electricity is cheap and I have found that people heat their houses to higher temperatures than in neighboring countries during long cold time. But then lower office temperature is uncomfortable.
