Thank you. The distinction between formal authority and informal power is an interesting model, but I would disagree that patriarchy is then a correct term to use since patriarchy does not distinguish between formal and informal in any definition that I have read. Matriarchy and patriarchy is usually defined by whom holds the primary power in a society. One can't say that women are hold more power in society and then say its a patriarchy, unless we define patriarchy in different terms to that commonly used. It also looks a bit like switching the definition based on needs, like how a monarch with a queen as supreme formal authority is still not a matriarchy because the overall informal power is held by men.

I do have a major question however about that list of powers. If a dispute between two families is about marriage, do the male chieftains hold authority to decide on the matter? My guess would be that they do not as that would cross the boundary of power. It sounds more like this society have male gender role that give them official domain over war and trade with other tribes, and a female gender role that give them domain over all other areas. This would be very similar to many other tribal societies, with the rare exception that allow individuals to choose which one of the two roles a person want. Many people object to this classification since it would mean that most historical societies are neither matriarchy or patriarchy but rather structured around gender roles where power is held supreme with in each gender group.
Was it the case? Both grandfathers worked blue collar jobs (coal mining and steel milling). Obviously, they didn’t have smartphones, but they also drove cars (1 per household, often bought used, never leased) for a decade plus, didn’t have cable/Netflix, ate basically every meal at home/brown bagged lunch, grew some of their own food, made their own coffee at home, and lived in 900-1200 square feet without AC (including raising 5 kids in a 2 BR house in one case) to make ends meet.

Obviously, I didn’t study economics when I was 5, but this seemed to be the norm in that era and community and would be viewed as abnormally (perhaps unacceptably) frugal now.

To be clear, they did get married, have children, live a decent life, and retire on pensions, but they and their neighbors lived a lot more frugally than seems to be normal/accepted today.

The oddest part of all that: my grand-mother was far more concerned that, if they found her, they would check my grand-father’s ID and potentially the whole group of residents at the hospital.

My grand-father was born in Strasbourg in 1919, the capital of Alsace, one of the two disputed areas between France and Germany. He was born in what was then France, but would have been considered German by the Third Reich. With his medical training, he would most likely be sent to the Eastern front, or worst.

The residents would have been even worst: they had found a way to use hospital resources to host one of their resident friend away from German attention, a Polish jew named Minkowski. He later became a key figure in neonatalogy (and his son is a well-known orchestra conductor). Any time I hear about a baby being born early, I feel something odd.

The only person in the family suspected was my great-grand-mother. She spent some time being interrogated in Fresnes, the nearby jail, with the bulk of the network. She was told that her name was on a notebook; she knew that it was crossed out. She testified that “that man” did knock on her door, asking about her political affiliation and she asked him to leave a widow alone; and that she remembered seeing him striking her name. Truth was: she knew very well this was the whole cell. Her name was stroke out because she did agree to host pilots, but the list was for food (which was rationed) and she said that she didn’t need extra.
Based on my grand-mother’s cooking skill, I think those pilots probably went quite hungry, but dodged a bullet.

All her stories have those incredible near-miss and I learnt a lot about OpSec from her.

I think thinking about operating systems is precisely the sort of thing 23 year old college students do. I know a few in my class did, I was hyped up by MS's Singularity OS back then.

Unfortunately they were not aware yet that Windows was going to lose the Server OS war and they never pulled Singularity out of research.

Operating Systems is a 2nd year course in most universities.
That's an incorrect conclusion you're drawing. That ruling doesn't apply an inherent legal barrier to Amazon's situation with Landmark at all. It does not ban movie production companies from owning distribution. An anti-trust review for a given context would be required to determine whether a combination is in violation of anti-trust laws. The Supreme Court in the Paramount case found that particular scheme was in violation, that is all.
Yeah after looking through the PDF, I'm still wondering what they meant. Here are some conjectures:

- The book has a high bias (since written from physics perspective), but low variance since assuming physics background allows authors to write a very focussed narrative that works for physicists (low variance on subset of physisicts readers).

- If we define the problem of choosing which topics t1, t2, ..., tn to cover in a ML book, the authors are saying the using the physicists approach will lead to consistency good results (i.e. not all over the place). It something like an argument from physicists-are-sensible people, unlike CS theoreticians, industry practicians, and mathematicians.

> A PhD is about doing novel work and pushing the state-of-the-art, you can't get a coursework based PhD.

That's the USA philosophy of advanced degrees; it does not reflect the practice of every country.

And given standard scholarly impact statistics for completed theses, it arguably doesn't reflect reality either. Maybe we should start admitting that most PhD candidates haven't made a significant contribution to the state-of-the-art, most future candidates aren't going to, and the nominal requirement to do so isn't helpful?
If you get depressed, doctors will prescribe you antidepressants which is drug that is supposed to lift your mood and "fix" depression (lol).

Imagine the following: Your life is not great and you're not where you want to be, as a result you get sad/depressed. If you take a pill that makes you feel good, you're felling good about something that generally YOU would fell bad about but know you fell ok/good about it. This is nasty part of antidepressants: Who are you?

Some people get depressed for chemical reasons and in that case antidepressants can make wonders for them. When you work long hours, don't exercise, don't care much about have a social life, eat poorly, etc. What do you get? Depression.

In this case you might have a chemical imbalance BUT it is because you're not taking care of yourself. If you take a antidepressant it will mess you up even more. If you become addict to it, you'll loose a sense of you own self because the pill affects your emotions. Some people think that pooping a pill solves everything.

So, by saying "ripping your soul", I mean that you're entering a hole that is really really hard to get out. I've faced depression, did some psychotherapy and I made the rational decision (thank God) of not taking any pills. I knew people who took them in a daily basis and it's not a happy picture at all. You've to switch meds every X years, people tend to feel sorry about themselves, etc etc. Those people I know are completely fucked up, in the next 10/20 years they'll become zombies most likely.

In my opinion, sometimes people have a huge EGO that gets in the way of growing up and turn into pill to feed their mental picture of themselves and the world.

For me, depression was not nice but I took it as a wake up call. Throw psychotherapy I became aware of stuff that was bothering but I was not aware of it.

Unless you've some physical problem that brings depression, today's depression is a simple product of the Western capitalism, social media, etc. Sometimes you just have to face the your own problems and grow the hell up.

Throw pain, you grow.

Our civilization is a total disaster.

We face a crisis that we can never stop talking about, 'climate change'. There is a easy and simply model to follow to make a massive impact on this problem, but somehow for reasons of pure bias, ignorance and misinformation we do not do this.

Nuclear power could have and should have solved this problem by now. Nuclear power was on track to replace older energy technologies faster then any earlier energy transition.

But somehow we failed, mostly because of the anti-humans, sometimes called 'environmentalists' who declared war on nuclear above even coal. They declared their goal in terms of anti-nuclear as 'increase regulation to a point where nuclear becomes unprofitable' and they have largely succeeded.

Since then the environmental movement has grown, and the problem they fight have grown, but they never went back and ganged their totally flawed assumptions about nuclear and they continue to spread outright lies and misinformation about nuclear energy.

I would not blame them alone, but the reality is the whole population now basically believes most of these lies, its tragic. The left often accuses the right of being anti-science but in reality most anti-GMO, anti-Nuclear people are form the left.

The evidence suggests most people are not overshooting their salt needs and especially not by huge margins.

https://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/03/opinion/sunday/we-only-th...

>With nearly everyone focused on the supposed benefits of salt restriction, little research was done to look at the potential dangers. But four years ago, Italian researchers began publishing the results from a series of clinical trials, all of which reported that, among patients with heart failure, reducing salt consumption increased the risk of death... Those trials have been followed by a slew of studies suggesting that reducing sodium to anything like what government policy refers to as a “safe upper limit” is likely to do more harm than good. These covered some 100,000 people in more than 30 countries and showed that salt consumption is remarkably stable among populations over time. In the United States, for instance, it has remained constant for the last 50 years, despite 40 years of the eat-less-salt message. The average salt intake in these populations — what could be called the normal salt intake — was one and a half teaspoons a day, almost 50 percent above what federal agencies consider a safe upper limit for healthy Americans under 50, and more than double what the policy advises for those who aren’t so young or healthy. This consistency, between populations and over time, suggests that how much salt we eat is determined by physiological demands, not diet choices....

https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/we-ea...

>People tend to consume about the same amount of sodium no matter where they live, and this amount hasn’t changed much in decades. Those facts hint at the biological basis of our sodium appetite.... “Over the last five decades, salt content of commercial food in our food [in the United States] has gone up. But if you look at people’s 24-hour urinary sodium excretion, you see that the amounts of salt people consume have been constant,” he says. Irrespective of age, sex or race, between 1957 and 2003 Americans have been eating on average 3.5 grams of salt a day. “This suggests that we are somehow regulating the amount of salt we are eating,” Breslin says.... In one of Leshem’s studies, babies who had low concentrations of sodium in their blood in the first weeks of their lives grew up to be teenagers with a penchant for salt, even salt that is seemingly hidden in processed foods. “Even if you can’t taste the salt, apparently your body does. It’s working on an unconscious level to condition a preference for sodium,” Leshem explains.
I guess you're referring to the situation that someone starts sleeping on back but wakes up in different position? I haven't gone that far - last night I was just lying down couple of hours, very tired and sleepy but unable to fall asleep while lying on my back.

Accounting Challenges Facing Modern-Day Businesses
Not much other success of global consequence, no. It's a myth that Amazon is gobbling up the world. People just like to throw around dramatic statements about big expansive corporations. It plays well to people's fears. You see it in all instances, without exception. Microsoft previously swallowed the world up and took over all businesses (as declared by numerous magazine covers in the 1990s). The dramatic performances put on about how Microsoft was going to own everything, is farcical in hindsight (and it was a joke then too). The exact same thing will hold true about Amazon. They won't own everything and the world will in fact keep on spinning, they're just the latest Big Corp in a very long line of them. Their run will fade just the same, too (20 years ago Walmart was going to own everything in retail and they were supposedly unstoppable, the headlines of dread were non-stop; Sears before that).

They have plenty of competition in cloud (they are in fact persistently losing market share). Their realm of dominance so far is ebooks and online traditional retail. There is nothing else that they truly dominate.

Amazon has overwhelmly failed at their ventures. They fail frequently and it gets entirely ignored by the doomsayers. They don't just take over industries, they flop at it routinely.

That is a bit misleading to the point of error, on several points:

* Your timeline is backwards. UTF-8 was designed for a 31-bit code space. Far from that being its future, that is its past. In the 21st century it was explicitly reduced from 31-bit capable to 21 bits.

* UTF-16 is just as standard as UTF-8 is, it being standardized by the same people in the same places.

* 17 planes is 21 bits; it is 16 planes that is 20 bits.
That's just one facet of software engineering. Large swaths of it cannot be reduced to math ie everything the user actually sees, hears, perceives, etc. Those are subject to psychology, aesthetics, ergonomics ... Although we're trying to quantify those, too, so maybe one day ...
I respect agl a lot, but this really doesn’t make sense to me. Should I be able to rely on the RSA keygen being deterministic between versions, given a fixed random Reader? No. But should I be able to rely on it being deterministic between runs with the same version? IMHO, yes. This changes the signature of key generation from (Reader) to (Reader, internal random).

Ask HN: Is there such a thing as a supercomputer vps?
The nice thing about services like Digital Ocean is that you can start with a small VPS and end up with a bigger one if you need it. But what if you want something much bigger? A long time ago I remember the SGI onyx with 64 processors. I have a multi processor computer for my workstation at this time and I realize that there can be a big drop in performance if a process crosses the cpu interconnect zone when it has too many threads. Digital Ocean's largest VPS could handle perhaps upto 40,000 live video streams on a good day but if you needed double that, now you are in the territory of real engineering.

Maybe supercomputer isn't exactly what I am interested in, maybe more like a giant SMP service. Do you have any experience with this sort of thing? I think SGI still vended monster parallel computers at some point recently..
There's another one I often use:

Create a custom error type, for example DB Error:

type DBError struct {
Temporary bool
NetworkBased bool
Cause error
}

Now you can provide functions like IsTemporary(err).

Otherwise, you can use 2# with a twist, instead of matching on a type, you can do:

switch {
case isErrFetchForbidden(err):
case isErrFetchNotFound(err):
}

or even:

IsBadRequest(err)
IsInternal(err)
IsTimeout(err)
Totally agreed. A modern type system should make these errors fundamentally impossible. If you see them in production, it means there is definitely a logic or error handling issue somewhere in your code and I find it weird that there's no support for a known technique for eliminating them.
Chinese influence has been going on a long time.
