At Google you can’t even run anything on Borg until you specify how much memory it will use. You also have to specify how many cores you need and how much local (ephemeral) disk. And memory limit is hard: your task is killed without any warning if it attempts to exceed the limit. I was actually puzzled to discover that these limits are not required on k8s. Not only this leads to screwups like this one, it also makes it impossible to optimally schedule workloads, because you simply don’t know how much of each resource each job is going to use.
Well yes, like I said it's not really a true columnstore. It's a basic storage extension that writes table data as ORC files for good compression and in the best-case scenario can managed to filter out segments. It's missing all the fancy processing features that real columnar warehouses use so it'll never be as fast.
>the AKS engineering team spent over a day helping identify that the user had over scheduled their nodes, by running applications without memory limit, resulting in the kernel oom (out of memory) killer terminating the Docker daemon and kubelet.

sounds like a bunch of people have just learned for the first time about OOM killer. I mean the production systems with overcommits and the running loose OOM killer and I bet without swap ... And they blame the customer. Sounds like a PaaS MVP quickly slapped together by an alpha state startup. You may want to look into man pages, in particular oom scoring and the code -17.
It's not really theirs to give, is it? If a researcher has a credible narrative of what she found, when she found it, some logs and other records, and any history of research at all, most people would believe her even if the owners of the researched system said "nuh uh we're perfect don't believe anyone who says otherwise!" Especially since such a system would be less likely to be fixed at the time of the presentation, so anyone interested could verify the vulns for themselves.

Of course the courts are open for business no matter what the circumstances, so a researcher might not take credit so as to not be sued.
While reading this, please keep in mind this is for indie developers, who needs to do all kinds of jobs. Chances are SQLite is the one thing that everyone must learn to use, if your business involves building apps. So if you can use it on server side, it would save a lot of needless learning. Same reason as how nodejs got started.

Some may say, well, sql servers are not that hard to learn. Well, that is because you live with it day and night. Try going back to it after 1 year of break.
> Does anyone know if it was another clone or just coincidence?

EDLIN was a clone of CP/M ED. Was CP/M ED influenced by Unix ed? I don't know, but I somewhat doubt it. Gary Kildall's primary background was in IBM mainframe and DEC minicomputer systems (in particular VM/CMS and TOPS-10), and so it seems to me more likely that CP/M ED was influenced by DEC or IBM line editors, than by Unix.

That said, Unix and IBM mainframe operating systems share some common heritage. Both were influenced by CTSS. So, it may be that any observed similarities between CP/M and Unix line editors could be due to that shared ancestry, rather than any direct influence of Unix on CP/M.

It really depends on center of mass and friction coefficient. Most cycling situations are wheelie before wheel slip. Even on dirt and up a hill the rider can just shift their weight backwards to get traction. A powered bike is probably different, with lower center of mass.
Given we already know it disrupts melatonin (as well as noctural wildlife), this feels like one of those cases where the burden of proof is on the proponents, before we roll out millions or billions of dollars of LED streetlights around the country.

You know who really stands to benefit the most? The companies that get to sell us blue equipment, and then next sell us replacement blue-filtered equipment when we prove night time blue light is a problem.

The cities that have already installed 5000K or 6500K (aka "daylight") lamps will be the natural experiments.
> Why not just use that?

No particular reason, depends on the use case. Every choice has tradeoffs, and there are cloud-specific ones that can hinder mobility even if it uses a common tech. Lock in is about more than code reuse especially as dependence grows. Granted, for many use cases it might be the best option, but we shouldn't pretend like it's the exact same mobility profile as copying a DB file.

I can't agree and I think the problems you're describing concern mostly the US.

European emmisions are not only lower than the ones generated in the US despite the larger population of the former but also until last year have been consistently falling since at least 1990 contrary to what was happening in the latter.

My take is that there has to be less involvement of private entities in shaping regulations in the US. Once that's out it will be possible to e.g. make people drive smaller, more fuel efficient cars by raising taxes on fuel.

Currently driving a Ford F150 is as cheap in the US as driving a compact hybrid in most European countries- this is ridiculous and needs to stop.
That sounds great in abstract but every study is subject to that logic, including studies studying studies. Which means that every study should be matched by an infinite regression of studies, which is untenable to put it mildly and mathematically fucking ridiculous to put it conservatively.
This may explain why so many otherwise highly developed non western courtries don’t reach swimming to everyone. England and France were big naval powers of the time and had much more reason than just watersports to mandate swimming skills for the populace.
That's sarcasm, right? Because that's what has happened, and been happening while healthcare in the US is treated as a for-profit enterprise.

Will try not to reply here since it can be inflammatory (any cryptocurrency topic here HN). That's been said, can you find any mention of "messages" in this article: https://steemit.com/dpos/@dantheman/dpos-consensus-algorithm... which directly referenced as their DPoS algorithm here: https://github.com/EOSIO/Documentation/blob/master/Technical... (I am not saying these are wrong, just under-specified scheme will essentially become implementation-specified and doesn't help anyone here).
Same, although I can see some cooperative deal w/ DC and possibly MontCo (MD).

However, I heard the Virginia's governor speak about this broad topic, and given what he'd already indicated the state had done to attract tech and defence sector bis, I pretty much consider NoVA to get something.

He also mentioned that consultants do much of the footwork to feel out which which locales will provide the be$t offers. He indicated that such consulting is actually a billion dollar industry and that to even be a viable contender in such races, cities/states must offer some incentive(s).

I'm an active player with enough hours logged to interpret the game. That being said, the observations should also be obvious to even the most novice player. I don't need a commercialized and obviously favorable and biased stream of commentary clouding a much more sound analytical capability. I'm pretty sure they're not going invite commentators that point out the obvious reality as to what is going on. Per the commentators, bot like behavior gets extra positive humanized characterization and is marked as intelligent. Whereas snowball-cheese is known as the lowest tier and least intelligent strategy in the game. There's even a set of memes in the community for people who attempt such strategies.

People need to start doing more critical analysis of their own and stop relying on commercialized and biased information and commentary when settling on an viewpoint. Watching others play only gets you so far in understanding. When you play and you see what I'm saying for yourself, you can skim through the provided clips and understand exactly what's going on.

The fact that this continues to get hyped up vs someone stating what's going on is plain sad.
Where did you guys get that idea that prescription should match so very precisely?

A lot of it stems from the fact that different brands and types of contact lenses - even ones with the same name - vary widely in terms of material, oxygen content/permeability, and actual physical dimensions of the lens (the two variables are called the "base curve" and "diameter"). The diopter is just one axis out of 5 or 6.

A given lens in one patient will not always be comfortable or even stay adhered to another one's eyeball. This is why doctors do "fittings" where a trial version is placed and observed for a few minutes or a few days to look for side effects. Lenses actually need to move when you blink, the doctor looks for that as well. Lenses that don't move can deprive your cornea of moisture and oxygen and scar it.

That said, once you're on a lens the matter of having it renewed is a simple function of your annual examination, which is something you should be doing when using contact lenses. If you're one of those people that make 2 week lenses last 6 months at a time and sleep in them, or you are buying them in gas stations, you're risking a lot. I sleep better knowing mine are FDA regulated and recalled if problems or contamination occurs.

I'm not a ophthalmologist, but I've been wearing contacts for nearly 30 years and I respect the process. I'd rather wear 1-days for the rest of my life than undergo LASIK.
> If you don't what someone did exactly and what they used then replicating it is going to be very difficult.

Why do journals accept these papers? If you can just make shit up, it kind of makes the whole value of a paid journal moot. What value do they add if not reviewing the damn paper?
Azure VM in general a joke
Looks good but not seeing too many performance improvements unfortunately.

Which is a shame, I much prefer Thunderbird to Kmail UI wise, but when processing thousands of messages (deleting, moving, filtering, etc) it slows to a crawl then freezes. Kmail stays responsive.

This on 16 core 32 GB machine. But it doesn't look like the cores are used very effectively by TB as opposed to Kmail.

For normal usage though it's great. Maybe the next release will focus on performance optimization, in particular multicore.

There's no single editor-personality. Some people hate vim default mode, they prefer emacs self-insert and accept the rest a 'sensical' gymnastics to do complex things.

With time you end up enjoying both way of life, I despise some ergonomics of emacs, and I really love the crystalling side of vi command systems (it's almost a tiny algebra of text sculpting).

I'm a bit confused why the cluster nodes don't come configured like this out of the box... kubernetes users aren't supposed to have to worry about OOM of the underlying system killing ops-side processes are they?

If that time ever comes, it will be because of a collapse in the US economy to such an extent that foreigners no longer want to hold claims against it. At that point it doesn’t matter what nominal interest rates are, because it simply won’t matter.

Many get the causality backwards, thinking that inflation causes economic collapse, but the former is actually the consequence of the latter.
lol so aks forgot to provision enough resources and possibly setup enforcement and you are blaming the user? the user should be able to run as close to edge of "allocatable" as possible or even go over it and be oom kill'ed without bringing down the entire node. this functionality is even built into kubelet already. there's no way you can twist this to make it into user error.

Have to take analogies with current computers with a large shovel full of salt.

The OP says more than once that they are trying to understand "behavior". To me that is like the kitty cat chasing a mouse, and in that case I suggested starting at a level lower than that. Sure, maybe as you suggest that level is higher than neuro-science has achieved so far, but I was responding to the OP.

A few days ago I did conjecture that building models of brain activity might give some clues to how the brain actually works, maybe.

If memory in brains involved rewiring, than maybe could treat that memory just as memory, although based on rewiring. In that case, maybe would want to study the wiring and, if some memory changed, the new wiring and, thus, see how memory writing is implemented by neuron rewiring. Then, maybe, the more times that memory is read and the length of time the reading is active determines how strong the connections are in the rewiring and, thus, how persistent the memory is. Maybe.
Attacker: "Yeah so they told them to turn off their GPS devices when they go into operational areas so we just searched where there were holes in the GPS data and bingo we figured out the secret base's location."

By producing or removing signal, above what would have occurred normally information, leaks out of the system.
Actually Kubelet should already be adjusting OOM scores to make sure that user pods (containers) get killed over Kubelet or the Docker daemon. Why didn't that work here?
No admission of responsibility of course, just scapegoating. I find it highly likely that Pai and his like-minded cronies were in on this the whole time.
This is so creepy, but expected.

Banks will say they are only handing over antonimized data... and Facebook will find away to pair spending with location and de-anonymize the data —- a move the banks anticipated and agreed to all along.

So shady.

Add that to the "Places I don't want to be during a system failure."
The eye isn't supposed to have foreign objects inserted into it. There are legitimate health complications that can be caused by contact lenses that an annual checkup is intended to catch.

The real racket is with the manufacturers who segment the market with different wear regimes. Nobody can come up with an explanation of what differentiates weekly, biweekly, and monthly lenses (daily's do eliminate some unnecessary processing steps). The members of the optik guild will be aghast if one dares to violate the approved regime and wear a lens longer than the box dictates, despite being made of the exact same polymer as a longer duration equivalent.
Being underground also protects you from excessive heat, excessive cold, wind, rain, and snow.

Being underground won't protect you from the noise of the mechanisms, but neither do the walls and roof of a train. Being on a train is loud.

Large crowds will cause heat within the system that will likely need to be managed, but -- like the noise -- this is equally true of trains.

How are any of those things an advantage of trains over a system of underground walkways?

I wonder how avoid to build one, and just reuse a good one. How feasible is it?
The essential added first it and it was ok to do not have an API for it since it was a very small cutout.

But now that Apple has sadly made cutouts ok, OEMs are going to implement them whether we like them or not.

I really hope that they are a fad that dies in a quick although very painful fire BUT right now Google needs to add support for it.

Which they did.
Agree. The quality of their software is so much better than the other major players.

As to political, the issue is not just something being political - 'something something liberal media' is both ideological and also completely generic. If I started railing about how the Koch brothers are out to destroy unions and build an underwater objectivist zombie paradise in threads about any odd thing, those comments would quite sensibly be downvoted, flagged and the dementors would show up to suck the joy of life out of me.

The downvoting - If you see downvoting (i.e. disagreement) with your views and opinions as some sort of abuse and tyranny, you'll probably have a hard time here and really, on most forums worth reading. I'll leave you with the following famous meditation by a stalwart proponent of laissez-faire capitalism:

"You wanna work here - close! You think this is abuse? You think this is abuse, you cocksucker? You can't take this, how can you take the abuse you get on a sit? You don't like it, leave."
that's not actually how this works on Borg these days (and by "these days" i mean past 5+ years) and there's nothing about k8s not requiring limits by default that lead to this.

These papers underlie a lot of modern research and treatments. If they aren't reproducible, the papers' results, and other papers that use their results come into question. This is a serious, documented problem [0].

> What have we learned exactly, except that experimental biology is difficult?

The problem wasn't that the project couldn't do difficult experiments, it was that not enough information was provided by the original papers. That's what we learned here.

The number of normal pigs available isn't really significant...
Even if you assume that the donor pigs wouldn't be heavily genetically engineered (and they probably would be), the risk of xenogeneic infection (ie pig viruses being carried over to the patient) means that they'd have to be raised under sterile conditions, so normal pigs are useless.

I have thousands of hours logged playing various Dota variants. I rarely watch as it's not a good way to retain skills or understand what's going on. If you play enough, you should understand exactly what I'm saying. I watch on rare occasions to get exposed to something I haven't thought of or tried but that's about it. Beating an opponent especially a good one is far different that 'breaking a bot'. What I mean by 'breaking the bot' is literally doing things to confuse an unintelligent mathematical algorithm into constant miscalculations and mis-predictions and for bonus points for finding a bug in the way it individually or collectively performs actions/interprets data. It's how their first 1v1 bot is defeated. This doesn't occur to a human being because we have intelligence and aren't just optimization algorithms purring along using game state data.

This is what Strong AI is centered on.
It's important that it become the norm to include it, though. So rather than just moving on, they're trying to gather that information so that if they CAN reproduce it, they now know how to make sure the next experiment can be more reproducible.
they do if cluster admin didn't setup proper system-reserved and kube-reserved (both are kubelet flags) and configured enforcement.
Good luck actually getting glasses or contacts in the US without a current prescription. I could never find somewhere that would even sell them to me. And it’s a nightmare because my eyes don’t change. I just want the same glasses but without the scratches. Getting them requires finding a doctor whose calculations will match. This usually requires finding the best doctor in town who will take the time to get the right results. Most of them rush.
The only reason why they would do this is for plausible deniability. If it turns into a disaster, then they can claim they didn't do anything about it. It's pretty disgusting to think we're that stupid, but journalists will just take the lazy way out.

Kube-dns (or CoreDNS in newer clusters) is pretty stable in my experience. It's still a very good idea to run more than one replica so that you can tolerate a single node failure, but if DNS failures are "fairly normal" that definitely warrants some additional investigation.

> Stepping onto an escalator is an act of faith. From time to time you see people poised at the top, advised by instinct not to launch themselves onto the river of treads. Riding the moving stairs is an adventure for the toddling young and a challenge to the tottering old. Natural hesitancy puts a limit on throughput.

This seems right, but it's also trivial to fix -- just lengthen the ends of the escalator so there's a flat section to get onto or off from. Nobody hesitates to get on a moving sidewalk.
Ah, and Hyper-V supports dynamic memory, so the system reservation backing can effectively be thin provisioned. That's nice. (Hm, dynamic memory probably got switched on from the start.)

Thanks for posting this here. It would be cool for there to be a way to hold application users to account without needing to chase viral Internet posts and do your best to pin some accurate reporting on slightly after the fact. A tricky general problem.
