Yup, it is very frustrating - and discouraging. There are some tools designed for replication - Snakemake, for one, in python, which seems to work pretty well. But, I think it adds unnecessary dependencies and complexity. I support using basic using basic UNIX tools for reproducibility, when possible: git to make all code publicly accessible, and make to reproduce all experiments and figures. I've implemented it in 2 comp bio projects (one which relies on publicly accessible data, and one which doesn't). In both cases it massively improved my workflow. It has the added benefit of being language-independent: when I have to blend R and python, it works seamlessly.

I first started thinking about this problem after I heard this talk by Arfon Smith [1]. It contextualizes reproducibility tangentially in discussions about viewing modern research as a heterogeneous (nodes can represent papers, experiments, software, authors, etc.) dependency network.

AKS now reserves 20% of memory from each agent node and a very small amount of CPU to protect docker daemon and kubelet to function with misbehaving customer pods. However, that just means customer's pods will be evicted or no place to schedule when all resource is used up. This is something we see now in customer support cases.
HN doesn't understand non-deterministic systems. They're just JavaScript programmers.
Every company I've worked with with business in China or Russia does this. Same rule was implemented last year when there was a ban on laptops on flights to/from Iran and the other Muslim majority countries the US put travel restrictions on, despite being UK based.

The devices aren't given away however, they're just wiped and reused as burners. Not 100% secure as a nation state would have access to BIOS rootkits but it's better than nothing.
interesting. thanks
The top comment is describing the positive advances in privacy. I think you jumped the gun -- may be worth a second look.

Spending 2+ weeks abroad on vacation reduced my anxiety levels significantly - partly due to the fact that noone talked about Trump much at all (and when they did I simply ignored or changed the subject).

Very refreshing.
Last I heard Facebook was working with First Data for ad-targeting insights based on purchase behavior. That partnership is what enables their advanced targeting based on in-store purchasing data (look at the CPG targeting categories available in Facebook ads, for example). While First Data is not technically a bank or credit card company that's a very misleading and disingenuous statement for Facebook to make.

We’re not talking about xenotransplantation of living tissues though.
I appreciate that. I did have the idea that the stringency of the washes in decellularization wouldn't be enough to get rid of viruses. Looked into it and it turns out that might not be true. Washing might be enough:

Not sure how compatible this is w/ the protocol used in the OP.
The ideal is very clear: "Congress shall make no law... abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press".

That's it. It forbids Congress from making laws. Any ideal beyond that is fully imagined and does not exist as part of the Constitution.

And we've been doing fine for well over 200 years with that simple ideal alone. With the internet and the ability to easily create a website or blog, people have more means of expressing their opinion than at any time in history. Alex Jones still runs his own website last I checked. He hasn't been silenced. Not even close. Fifty years ago he would have been the kooky guy living at the end of your street and no one would know who he is.
I paid $85.69 including all taxes and fees recently and this site looks like it would be $112 so about 30% higher. I must be missing the innovation here because it seems like just another contacts retailer I’ll have to price compare with when I buy.

Yes I'm partisan in that I'd like for us to be rid of both wings of the mainstream party. In the context of this thread "net neutrality" has been a regulation. Of course as a design consideration it is fundamental to how the internet is built, and of course it's an abomination that none of the ISPs available to me feel that way. I don't judge things by the marketing, FCC included. If FCC fixed any number of the many things they do wrong, I'd have to change my tune. I don't expect to have to do that...

I'm not sure what other reply you're referencing.
>And I doubt (seriously) AWS (Azure) has means to do MITM, reading private keys from virtual machines? cmon.

that's only if the website(s) are only using their IaaS offerings (which I doubt because they're crazy expensive compared to DO or vultr) and not their PaaS offerings. With PaaS (think heroku), they terminate the SSL and control the software for the http server, not you.
This is unfortunately not true for radio astronomy, the receivers are very sensitive, and will show interference from even a simple LCD screen within a mile. At frequencies below 1 GHz, the VLA often has to throw away more than half of the data due to interference.

Most observations happen outside of the protected bands, nature uses the whole spectrum, although the absolute most important bands are protected, like the 1420 MHz hydrogen line. For comparison, if you put a cell phone on the surface of the moon, it would be the brighter than the brightest natural source at 2 GHz. FM bands are wiped out, but some experiments where it is really important (the epoch of reionization) are put specifically in Western Australia or South Africa where it's wasteland and they protect the sites from interference.

This is a well known problem of scientific publications now-a-days:

Papers have become a target for success, so scientist need publications for better status and remuneration:

Eh, I'd keep the smartwatch to be honest. I have a collection of nice watches, but only my G-Shock regularly comes with me to work because it's the only one I'd trust to survive the rough and tumble when I'm not in front of the computer. But it's nice to have a collection I think.

Prediction and hope: within 1-2 years, Open.AI will be able to offer a GREAT AI-powered challenge to human players across many games.

I occasionally play strategy games and I am always frustrated by a very stupid AI that gets challenging only by beefing up its stats. I would love to play against a smart AI.

I don't do multiplayer because: I like to play offline and/or whenever I want, and I play so rarely that most other human players wouldn't enjoy playing with me.

Yes, this is true on it's face: it's bad to deploy containers to k8s without appropriate resource limits. However, this should in no way affect the operation of the node, so the implied transfer of responsibility for this incident from AKS to the customer is invalid imo.
> FCC does nothing that citizens need or want done.

Keeping emergency bands clear is something the general populace wants done and frankly, needs done.
I'm not math fluent enough to know what lattices really are, but it seems, from the wikipedia article, that a (geometric/group theory) lattice is a subgroup of the additive group of real numbers [1] that is isomorphic with the additive group of the "free abelian group" [2].

[1] which is to say, real numbers that one can obtain by adding or subtracting other real numbers.

[2] which is a set that satisfies addition, commution, and inversion to derive any element from some subgroup of the set. Integers are an example, as one can produce any integer as a combination of the number 1.

The way lattice math has intruded into my outgroup awareness is from C Gentry's formulation of a fully homomorphic encryption scheme using lattices. So, if you are interested in a survey of papers delving into the applications of lattices for cryptography, consider looking at this 70 page work. I guess if you want to see some code that results from understanding this stuff, consider looking over Shai Halevi's HELib repo: https://github.com/shaih/HElib
A secure locker system should probabbly be the SOP for a lot of places.

You leave your vehicle (they still check it...) and you are taken for a ride from there.

It's expected that people will drive there and go from there ;)
C gives you technically perfect abstractions, but it's a pita: you have to mess around with unimplemented structs (`typedef struct Bla Bla`, but never actually define Bla in the public interface, and then have functions taking Bla*), and void pointers, which generally makes it significantly less comfortable than in higher-level-languages.
I didn't say anything to the contrary.

I'd personally like to see a lot more public spectrum (say half of what was reclaimed from that DTV switchover [0]). But I respect there are many applications that do need dedicated spectrum, hence my reference to radio astronomy. Basic emergency comms that want the least possible protocol complexity is another.

It's just not a very informed opinion to think the FCC effected wifi/bluetooth, rather than having merely gotten out of the way.

[0] Or, if concerned it would merely end up a permanently unusable swamp due to the propagation, at least run an initial experiment with a tiny slice.
Somebody with more expertise than me needs to chime in here.

If you take the data from Table S2 and perform a two-sample binomial test (as seen here[0] and at 3 minutes here[1]) you can directly contradict a statement in the paper's abstract ("Male patients and female patients experience similar outcomes when treated by female physicians") Using the female doctor numbers I get a z-value of 8.36 which is well over the standard two-tailed significance value of 1.96 for p<0.05. With N being so large it looks like the gender of the patient is absolutely statistically significant with female doctors as well as male.

I feel like I must be missing something here but I'm such a beginner with statistics that I don't know what it is. Is it not a binomial distribution, is it not normally distributed? Am I plugging my numbers in wrong?

You leave your car at the gate, they weren't that crazy.
Freedom of the press as commonly understood in the US is a misnomer. Today we are most limited by access-based journalism. Journalist careers generally depend more on access than anything else. As such, their subjects have tremendous power if wielded smartly. PR departments are tasked with wielding this most efficiently.

By being vague in the pretense of that power-wielding landed this subject the benefit of the journalist doing the last mile dirty work of being specific. The hope is that this will buy her another interview, and another interview, and so on. They (the journalist) may have another plan in mind, but their power to execute it is limited by their professional mobility and utility to the subject.
They won't do that because they want a consistent look for their devices. If you jailbreak, though, you can inject code that hooks into random methods and changes the ui; but that's not officially supported.
For all I know the regulars there could carry whatever (that would be crazy but who knows). I only knew the rules for me.

Quite simply yes. A modern "computer" is made up of multiple layered CPUs and OSs at this point. WiFi, sound, ssd, GPU all often have embedded cpu and firmware that could get "enhanced" and survive a recore

What is a recommended VM size on Azure to use?
If the containers in a pod request more ram than is available on any node in the cluster then the pod will fail to schedule and will remain in pending state, which can be seen in the events for the controller (replicaset, daemonset, etc) using, for example `kubectl describe replicaset myreplicaset.` We've gotten ourselves into this situation a few times on GKE. It's easily resolvable by tuning the resource requests or scaling the nodepool and has no adverse effect on the operation of the cluster.

Forcing YouTube, Facebook, or the side of your house to host Alex Jones' content is inhibiting freedom of speech. People and companies have a right to not say things. If they don't, then please let me know when Alex Jones will be setting aside some of his website and paying for the hosting for my views. I have a lot to say. It would be great to piggy back on his 10 million visitors a month and get a free audience.

If mere exposure to irrational ideas is this dangerous then this basically means the neoreactionaries are right and democracy is not viable. If people are that dumb they should not be able to vote.

I think the answer is much simpler but equally pathetic. The center right and center left are both so vapid and devoid of vision that they are helpless to address the "alternative" of Alex Jones. It is our elite that have failed and left a vacuum to be filled with whatever happens to be loudest.

If we had real public intellectuals and a real media and real politicians with vision Jones would be completely marginalized. He only succeeds because the culture is so empty.
I'm confused, where did they say they were "hacked"? When I follow the links I get here [1] where they said they were DDoS'd, not hacked. Even TechCrunch's old article [2] doesn't say the FCC was hacked.

> I've wondered a few times if other platforms have similar issues and have seen more than a few complaints about EKS.

I can't speak to EKS but we've been running production workloads on GKE for over a year with very good results. There have been a very few really troublesome "growing pains" type issues (an early example: loadbalancer services getting stuck with a pending external IP assignment for days) but Google has been awesome about support, even to the extent of getting Tim Hockin and Brendan Burns on the phone with us at various times to gather information about stuff like the example I gave above. I give them high marks and would recommend the service without hesitation.
A very nice read celebrating the most "boring" parts of the beautiful game. The defensive rallies: long, drawn out times where a team seams to be just holding its own until a quick steal and streak up the field leads to a blocked shot, corner kick and the first goal of the scoreless game.
adjusting scores for other processes skews the chances yet doesn't guarantee. The way to guarantee it for a given process is to disable the killer for that particular process.
It was a large facility... I think. There was much to see at the gate I went to, other than a gate and considering I knew how things were going to go (lots of making sure you knew the rules) I didn't want to startle anyone by looking around too much (for all I know there were others... who knows...).

I got the feeling the whole driving away thing was more about that if anyone felt things were suspicious, you weren't getting in, and just wasted everyone's time. Protocol was a big deal.

In theory some random joe could somehow drive to this gate, but I'm not sure how, it wasn't exactly on the way to anywhere. I was also told they would know you were coming long before you got there and not just because of the schedule (not sure if that was true, but someone told me that) ;)

It is all curious to talk about now but when you're alone and serious business guys are around you with guns you just behave as innocuous as possible.

As for equipment I belive the customer paid for each visit, equipment included. Everyone knew the rules outright so they paid a ton for everything.

Beyond just one visit sending hardware to sites for repairs and never getting anything back was SOP even for some security minded private companies, so that wasn't all that unusual. Laptops taken... was quite unusual as at the time laptops were quite expensive.
Sounds reasonable, but am I missing something deeply important, like say lisp or haskell, if I don't learn Julia. What I've seen it's a nicer fortrant.

Yeah I assumed that was the case.

Also I got the impression that even if they checked you at the gate and you didn't account for something in your car or on you and they found something you shouldn't have, they could deny you entry right there and you weren't getting back in anytime soon. Someone panicking and driving away might set off some dude's suspicions and you weren't going to fix things... and it took a while to schedule everything.

It was as much about protocol and just making good choices / customer service (don't scare your customer) as anything else.

> Triangular shapes are quite rare in human spaces
Not a football fan, eh? Triangles are the essential building block for breaking down defenses. </bad_joke>

As for what you actually meant, triangles (and other variations of 3) play a very import role in visual design. Admittedly, these might not be obvious to most. I know you really meant physical items. However, it might be a style of design of a more modern era. I have a glass coffee table that has a triangular raised extension, from the 50s I believe. I also have a round two tier table, built by my grandfather in the 50s as well. The top tier sits on an X shaped pier with 90 degree notches cut out of the verticals leaving a very distinct triangular shape, plus the gaps of the X shape as well. Just from memory, the cars from the 50s had lots of triangular shapes/markings, specifically thinking of the fins. I wonder why the triangle seems to have fallen out of favor?
The slide merely says "most Borg users use Autopilot", which could easily be true. Heck, I used it myself for non-production batch jobs. Those jobs were run as me. Any engineer at Google can spin up a job, and I'd venture to guess that most of them run at least something there every now and then. That's ~40k logical "users" as of 2018. The interesting question (which I admit I don't know the answer to as of today) is whether users that run search, ads, spanner, bigtable, and other shared service behemoths use Autopilot. FWIW my team did not use it at all.
