That's a literal interpretation. A contextual interpretation implies that Roundup cannot cause harm through the observed means because it cannot clear the skin, the latter of which is patently false.

Looking at this with another lense; Spotify could use a DPO to cash out quickly, fearing they are a relative flash in the pan. The streaming service market is in an interesting place right now, with Hulu posting big losses and Disney about to come on the market.

I know they have 70mil+ subscribers and are profitable, but tech companies swing wildly so who knows!
So cool. This is why I always go to HN comments!!

You can install charmpy on Windows with pip if that works for you. Launching multiple processes is straightforward (you can check the documentation at charmpy.readthedocs.io).

We don't offer an API yet in charmpy to explicitly do things like parallel apply (but will soon). You can however look at `examples/parallel-map/par-map.py` in the source code which shows a simple example of how to do it with the current API and might be what you are looking for.

Other cloud providers don't do it. The idea that letting TCP packets be routed to the Google Cloud datacenter falls under "providing services" is clearly an incredibly expansive reading.

I expect Google to make a little bit of an effort here.
I recently had a deep dive on EKS as part of an architectural review for a large scale (200+) microservice deployment. The recommendation was to strongly avoid EKS. Bad enough that the platform is brittle and expensive, the Amazon engineers sneered at Kubernetes as a "fad" and pushed us heavily towards ECS. I put it down to hubris but not a hope in hell we'd put our services onto a platform built with that attitude.
It's not just JRE. You cannot download any software from Oracle, period.

Plus, is it really illegal to export cryptography software? If that is the case, why are Java downloads the only ones restricted? Shouldn't, for example, Visual Studio and .Net also be blocked? I don't think it is for any valid legal reason. Just that they cannot make money from these countries, so they can't be bothered to let them access their download servers.
Reid Hasting lawsuit did hold that you can make announcements via socials (facebook in his case) and while you’re correct im not sure what the burden of proof for “secured” is. He could take Solar City private or potentially a piece of the company private. An IOI/LOI the Saudis or SoftBank could suffice but im not a lawyer of course. I suspect this wont count as a crime and given Musks position in the company he holds the cards. If he stepped down those investors would take a beating atleast for the foreseeable future.
Problems off the top of my head:

- cross is too light

- shape drawn is not a cross

- more than one cross

- one cross drawn, erased, and redrawn elsewhere

- one cross drawn, crossed off, word "nevermind" written next to it, and then a new cross drawn somewhere else
I planned to fix some bugs in HNBuddy [1]. I was hoping to deliver an update this week, but I just spent 6 hours trying to fix a navigation bar that is supposed to hide on scroll. It is finally working as I want (and on all the supported devices). I just have to clean all that code now...

It's kind of frustrating to spend to much time on details like that. Nobody will ever think "wow, that navbar is smooth!".

Btw, the navbar is implemented in an open source project [2], if you want to get a look at it.

Yet, as a user, there's nothing I dreaded more than the all-Flash application. Binary blob, no integration with the OS, and accessibility was an afterthought. Basic things like highlighting text to copy, tabbing between controls, Enter to submit, would not work. We should take care to not view the history of Flash through rose-tinted glasses.
If your company's motto is "move fast and break things" then you can't punish the developers for bugs.
I pointed out OVH as a cloud provider with a strong stance on the internet without borders.

Hetzner doesn't come even close in this regard.
Really?

I don't think it's reasonable to expect nurses to wait an undocumented 8 seconds after changing modes to avoid a race condition. That goes far past "utmost care". Are pilots expected to never overlap command inputs? Are they allowed to engage the flaps and then activate the spoilers before the flaps are fully deployed?

They live inside Dreamworks, Disney, etc. but without any sort of public collaboration model. You can't contribute to the Alembic file format unless you work at Imageworks, you can't contribute to EXR unless you're at ILM, and you can't contribute to OpenVDB unless you're at Dreamworks.

Irrelevant to whether it’s a carcinogen, but it seems like a hell of a good argument if someone says it’s safe enough to drink.
What’s the actual risk? Once you’re off in conspiracy land, why not worry that they’ll pay off a supplier or something? In the real world, blowing an Azure contract or SLA would cost more in lost business than they paid for GitHub entirely.
Ask HN: Why css frameworks?
Over the last couple of months I have seen an influx of new CSS frameworks.

My question is why: why?
Why go through the effort of learning and implementing a framework when vanilla CSS works so well. I see that a lot of developers are pushing for sites to load faster, be simpler, and be smaller. Yet at the same time we are bloating pages with these frameworks for stuff that could be achieved quite easily with "normal" CSS. What are some of the benefits of using a framework and why do so many people choose to use one?

Good point, it would fare better in an earthquake.

> Some 1,400 years ago, tall wood-framed pagodas in Japan were built to 19 stories tall. In spite of the area’s high seismic activity – including the 6.8 magnitude Hyogo-ken Nambu earthquake in 1995 that caused widespread damage – these structures still stand today.

https://csengineermag.com/article/wood-frame-construction-ad...

Now, I don't know if actually would fare better than a steel frame in an earthquake (which this building is very close a fault line), but the Japanese seemed to have figured out how to do it a long time ago. I don't know because I am not even close to experienced with wood structures over 3 stories.
Hey Elon Musk, where’s the funding to take Tesla private?
I was told Amazon interns also had to pay $300/mo for not particularly nice corporate housing in the UW dorms. My understanding was this was in additional to the salary reduction.

I agree. Thank you for writing this.

I realized recently that I actually do like static typing, as long as the cost is low. (I really like TypeScript)

Sorry, I don't want to reason about the "shape" of my application state vector before I've written it... but that's what Swift's static type checking forces me to do... Design my app and it's data model at the same time.

Call me a lazy software hippie I guess.
oh, well, i wouldn't want that. so maybe not ignore the law, but what about just writing in the intent anyway, wouldn't that help with leniency?
> Dr Dolan said the cost for the fuel would be around $15 a kilogram, with an average car holding five kilos of pure hydrogen in a tank. "But the efficiency of the car is twice as good as current gasoline cars, so you can actually drive twice as far on a tank," he said.

So AUD $75 for 800 kms? My Prius gets 600 kms on the highway on a CAD $40 tank of gasoline.

Perhaps a hydrogen/electric hybrid would be better.

Nope, its only a salary reduction. In addition, they get a "husky card" with a daily stipend for on-campus dining hall/food court meals/gym entrance etc - a few friends of mine took it and they said the value of the husky card was more than $300 if they spent all of it.

Also, UW Dorms are only for summer interns. Off cycle interns live in 1 bedroom apartments in SLU. They're really nice with a $500 salary reduction.
Cell cultures are plain cells growing in a plastic bottle. Human cells have only a cell membrane made of phospholipids around them, which can get easily disrupted by detergents. Humans don't die when exposed to a drop of soap, cell cultures do.

That doesn't mean that a detergents can't have other effects that are harmful to humans. It just means that I don't think a cell culture experiment proves anything in such a case. A study in animals would be something different.

You couldn't access _some_ AWS servers for a _period of time_, and you think it's equivalent to people in Iran, Cuba, etc. being completely blocked out of GCP? And the only difference is marketing?
> Staring into a bright screen in a poorly lit room is eye strain.

That's a really good point.

If I have to use a computer or phone under poor lighting, I turn down the display brightness to match.

Otherwise, I prefer to be in a space where I can read something written on paper. And then I adjust the brightness to match that - not cranked up too bright like I see sometimes.
LispWorks has a native compiler and supports Android and iOS: http://www.lispworks.com/products/lw4mr.html

The iOS situation is difficult, because Apple does not allow runtime compiled/loaded code in general. LispWorks pre-compiles Lisp code and one creates an App with the help of Apple's Xcode. LispWorks has still an Interpreter at runtime. Generally it is a very complete implementation of Common Lisp (minus the runtime compilation), but without a Lisp-based GUI library. They also had to write a special Garbage Collector for the 64bit ARM iOS. Seems like it was not possible to have their usually more advanced GC, which for example is available with their 64bit ARM Linux port of LispWorks.

One of my favorite software horror stories is the one of $32 _billion_ overdraft by the Bank of New York.

From "Computer-Related Risks" by Peter G. Neumann, published 1994 (REALLY recommended reading)

"One of the most dramatic examples was the $32 billion overdraft experienced by the Bank of New York (BoNY) as the result of the overflow of a 16-bit counter that went unchecked. (Most of the other counters were 32-bits wide.) BoNY was unable to process the incoming credits from security transfers, while the New York Federal Reserve automatically debited BoNY's cash account. BoNY had to borrow $24 billion to cover itself for 1 day (until the software was fixed), the interest on which was about $5 million. Many customers were also affected by the delayed transaction completions."

Granted, no one died because of this but ... wow ... that was bad day for some developers somewhere.

As far as I know, Dask is at its core a tasking model (i.e. tasks have input and outputs, and run automatically when inputs are ready in a dataflow-like model).

Charm++ (on which CharmPy is based) is an actor model. Think Erlang for HPC. You've got a set of objects that are all nominally running concurrently, and objects can send messages to one another.

Personally, I prefer the task-based model (but of course I'm biased since I work on one myself). In a proper task-based model, you can't have races or deadlocks, everything looks to a first approximation to be sequential. In actor models there's pretty much no way to hide the conncurrency, and all the traditional pitfalls of parallel programming are exposed to the user.

Linux did a big move since "command line only".
Yeah, that's sort of Nvidia's shtick: putting a ton of work into the more proprietary parts of their drivers, and getting third parties stuck on Nvidia hardware.

You'd see this in games where Nvidia would put custom code in to support individual broken games before they came out. Then consumers see that the game works on Nvidia but not on AMD and blame AMD even though they generally have the more standards compliant driver. That's sort of the whole shtick behind CUDA as well.

IMO, that's half the point of why AMD made Mantle. The layering part of the API means that consumers (and third parties like the media) can run validation layers to see if a game not working is the drivers fault or the game's.

In addition to the ACM and IEEE, the National Society of Professional Engineers also has a code of ethics.

I'm going to keep hacking away at OCaml, but measure my expectations a little and perhaps start looking into Reason as well.

A couple questions wrt Reason:

Do you find it easy to switch between OCaml / Reason? I personally find the syntax of Reason a little unnecessary.

Do you use ReactReason or some other framework -- perhaps the Elm-like 'tea' package?

There's only one problem in computer vision, and it's not unique to the field at all: balancing sensitivity vs specificity. Modern applications of ML don't solve that.
There are quite a few differences between them. Disclaimer: I work on CharmPy, and I'm not an expert on Dask, so my comments might be biased and not entirely accurate with respect to Dask.

Obvious difference between the two is programming style. CharmPy (its current core API) is based on asynchronous method execution between distributed objects. Being objects they can have state and data which allows for a lot of flexibility. In Dask, you express a workflow as a series of dependent tasks (which as far as I know are stateless so it's more like functional programming) and dask schedules it for you. The scheduling is centralized (done in only one place, so it's like a master-worker pattern) even if you use the "distributed" scheduler (which is needed for multi-node runs). With CharmPy you can have truly distributed applications.

Another thing I observed with the dask model is that, since everything needs to be translated into a task graph before execution, there seems to be poor support for mutable distributed numpy arrays. A mutation operation like modifying a single element of a distributed array is not allowed as far as I know (I have tried), and other mutation operations that are supported actually generate a completely different task graph as a result, with the overhead this entails. In charmpy, this restriction does not exist since you can just invoke a method on the object that holds the data that you want to modify, and do it in-place.

In terms of performance, our initial tests have shown huge performance difference, with CharmPy being up to 200x faster (this is comparing with dask distributed scheduler for a very simple BSP-style program). Of course, difference will vary by workload, but one thing to note is that Dask is pure-python, while CharmPy's core runs in C/C++. The current level of task granularity that we can comfortably support is a few hundred microseconds, and we expect to improve it further. In contrast, the Dask documentation for the distributed scheduler explicitly warns against using small task granularity, recommending tasks larger than 100 ms duration. And something like Jug recommends tasks longer than 20 seconds.

We are planning on adding other APIs on top of the core charmpy API, to accommodate other programming styles. For example, offer better support for the functional parallel programming style (there is a small example of parallel map in the codebase using charmpy), or task scheduling.
Exactly. Even in decent areas of Oakland you can find sub 1k rent with a roommate. Currently live in an apartment that's a 5 minute walk away from a BART station in Oakland and pay 1800/month for a 1 bedroom that I split. Takes me 35 minutes to get to work in the SF Financial District.

While housing is very expensive here (especially if you have family), there are definitely ways to find cheap housing.

Anecdotally I know people who are renting rooms out of their homes in San Leandro/Hayward for $750/month.

In particular look at OpenVDB (volume database). It is a wide and shallow volume format designed for performance around certain use cases. It also includes good lib support for the common simulation functions.

A lot of the other open source offerings from the animation/vfx studios are about common formats and pipelines and may be of less interest outside of the industry.
