Why do you think there is some grand conspiracy? Media attention works both ways. TSLA/Musk forced themselves into popular culture and they have benefitted greatly (a completely disconnected from reality stock price that has allowed them to raise an enormous amount of debt) from that free media attention. But, it also means increased scrutiny. It is a similar situation with Apple and iPhones. If the Pixel has some bug, you might see a blip on an Android fan site. If the iPhone has a bug it makes headlines for days.

Amazing. $75b valuation, loads of cash to run ops and not have your burn rate run you into the ground. Clearly the worth here lies in the apparently very strong AI they use to detect trends. Again, as with Shazam, detecting trends early is obviously quite valuable.

I'd guess that bedbugs exist in separate populations that don't inter-breed much. Once house or hotel may harbor a population that exists in isolation and can sometimes spread to new locations. Mosquitoes live outdoors, but still don't constitute one large population.

If we were to try to eradicate them I think using multiple techniques at once on a global scale would probably be necessary. You want to get them ALL. There will always be that one place with a bedbug population in isolation waiting to reintroduce them to the world.
It kind of blows my mind that people actually get attached to their work like that. I have friends to are like this but I just don't get it. Personally I just have never cared nor even been able to care about company problems beyond what I am asked to do to get paid in a narrow sense.
There was a big promise of 350 Million a week to the NHS. That seems like a pretty reasonable thing to vote for. Unfortunately it was backtracked on within hours of the result. Is that really democracy?
The pdf format is essentially an executable. Whether or not the browser sandboxes it correctly is a matter of debate.
I couldn't find a list of the hardware used in the benchmarks, so comparing is difficult, though before testing, I'd lean towards agreeing with you. Luajit is often on par with C, D or Go.

However, as C was one of the faster, I'll use it as a comparison.

fib.c, compiled with 03: 10.49user 0.28system 0:11.62elapsed

#include <stdio.h>

long fib(long n) {
if (n <= 1) return 1;
return fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2);
}

int main(void) {
printf("%li\n", fib(46));
return 0;
}

Lua:

function fib(n)
if n <= 1 then
return 1
else
return fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)
end
end

print(fib(46))

Luajit: 48.66user 0.11system 0:52.95elapsed

Lua 5.3: 717.21user 8.40system 14:19.47elapsed

As Luajit was so much slower than C for this, which can be somewhat surprising.

Luajit would probably beat Ruby, for it's interpreted crown, but without optimisation, it won't beat the big boys.

I would say, that Lua isn't a good fit for solving this kind of problem, with these constraints, because every function call requires a hash lookup, which is irritating.

Of course, you could use Luajit's FFI to use C's implementation, which would be somewhat faster. Or expose the C implementation as a Lua library.

However, Lua is probably also a really good fit for memoization, and other techniques like that.

local nums = {}
local fib

fib = function(n)
if n <= 1 then
return 1
else
if nums[n] then
return nums[n]
else
nums[n] = fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)
return nums[n]
end
end
end

print(fib(46))

This is a fairly naive implementation, but has the same final result as the previous examples... And 'time' is unable to measure how fast it is (Both Luajit and Lua5.3). For all intents and purposes, it's instant.

The purpose of news is not to inform, but to make money. Divisive and emotionally charged issues get people to share, respond, and take a more active part in issues. This, in turn, can be monetized -- clicks are money. And it also tends to be easy to keep milking these sort of divisive and emotionally charged issues for days/weeks at a time.

I was even more disappointed in the coverage of the Falcon Heavy. Most news outlets gave it little more than basic coverage, even though it was one of the most significant achievement in space in decades. And that landing footage of multiple rockets separating and autonomously landing, simultaneously, is something that can give anybody goose bumps. And that was a US achievement, which goes against the hypothesis of 'because it was Japanese' many are stating in this thread.

It's pretty sad. We are currently living through what will undoubtedly be seen as one of the most important times in the history of our very species as we develop the technology and ships that will one day go from being just rockets to outright space ships. And you could ask the average person what they know about it, and it would be next to nothing. Yet ask that same person about whether somebody might have drunkenly groped somebody else 35 years ago, and they'll have all the details and dirt. I suppose when it comes to clicks, gropes beat hopes.

Something to do with python 3 using long† integer as the default int, which can be arbitrarily long, so it may have slower arithmetics.

No because Musk already said that there was no plan to do so, going private now would make it even worse.
There are three advantages that I saw immediately upon switching to Swift:

Ugh. You joke, but I loathe that sentence. Absolutely loathe it. The version in Crichton's book wasn't as bad as the tripe Ian Malcom spouted in the movie, but it's had a toxic influence on pop culture understandings of science and genetics.
Ahh, French customs officials. The epitome of kindness and courtesy.

I agree that you never should travel without ID, but not accepting a Greek id just borders on ridiculous.

I very rarely had to show ID on inter-Schengen flights. But I'm certainly not stupid enough to not carry one.

The only European country where I actually carry my passport is England. Since you can't use the automated gates with an ID. But I never had trouble with my (Swiss) id.
Starting a family before the age of 25 is an example of GOOD decision-making??
First, note that charging per CPU makes clients less likely to keep sufficient overhead to account for node loss or service scaling. Anything that makes availability a major financial decision is a bad thing (and openshift support is a relatively major financial line item).

A technical solution: A service that counts nodes or available VCPUs and reports it for billing. Kubernetes metrics makes this really simple.

A contract solution: Realize that bare metal is not the future (even for enterprises), and adopt a different billing model; following Oracle's per-CPU model is not the the way to be a leader in this industry. Per cluster, by bands of service counts, per site, per hour with minimum hour counts, etc.
You can count from zero to twelve one the knuckles of each finger, using your thumb as an index. Easy-peasy. Combined, that means you can get from 0 to 156 (12*12 + 12). Much better than the 10 one can manage simply by holding up fingers.
This should go well.
Most of the debris in orbit is a result of 2 events, one of which was a purposeful action of the Chinese government. So if humanity can refrain from blowing up satellites, or at least keep from blowing them up in the stupid way the Chinese did, it should remain manageable.

Of course, some of the most difficult to track debris was put up there in the name of science- the Telford needles, pieces of tether, and shreds of solar sails. If the big net experiment from a couple of weeks ago had gone awry, we'd have another difficult to track fabric-like bit of junk shredding itself into smaller yet still dangerous pieces up there.

I have some slight experience with the PR world. The thing I think went wrong here, is that the news slowly came in over the course of several days. Each one adding slight excitement, but individually insignificant. First there was a story about a landing going to happen and the first pictures from space. Then there was a story of landing going on but they would only have results a couple of days later. Then there was a story of the landing seemingly successful and now they have images.

If you compare it to a Tesla launch. One clear moment defined in time, various completely superfluous but amazing details for the stories. Most importantly: high quality photogenic imagery! All leading to a giant one day peak of excitement which does take the frontpages.
For him, it's probably funny. For news outlets, it's probably money.

I think that's because back then, everyone smoke & drank, and rather more than we nowadays do, whereas now it's common to look down upon smokers in particular. They're a despised minority, so the ruling class see no problem increasing their taxes. After all, they're free to quite any time they like!

If you want dns based load balancing on the root domain, you really have to delegate that domain to your DNS based load balancing service.

Otherwise, set up a couple stable IPs to redirect to a subdomain and nothing else. (I'm comfortable putting two quality machines in different data centers for this, but you can use a load balancer it you have access to quality load balancer). If all of your published urls have www (or m) and all of your inbound links have it too, it's not really a big deal if the root domain is unreachable for some time in the event of a server/load balancer/datacenter failure.

Anecdotally, I have seen some disaster marriages and it explains how divorces can happen:

>Pregnant shotgun weddings

>Knew the person for a few months, moved to stay with them in another state, married and pregnant within 1 year.

>Military marriages

I imagine these were worse in previous generations. Sex outside of marriage more taboo.

I think culturally its become more taboo to get married just to have sex than to live together before marriage.
Huh? "https://www.login.chase/login?id=DEADBEEF/.evil.com" wouldn't go to evil.com, it would go to login.chase. "chase" is the TLD of that URI.

Organize crime is corrosive to society as a whole, in particular the power structures, whereas drunk driving leaves the social structure intact, at the expense of perhaps more deaths.
Outcome is still the same: There are fewer people getting divorced.

If the cause is that younger people are less likely to get divorced (which is what these stats are showing, even though that contradicts your anecdotal points) in their first marriage while older people keep getting married and divorced, there's still fewer overall divorces. If it's that younger people are once bitten twice shy as you suggest, then there are still fewer overall divorces.
Why would you do that?

Maybe put some pages explaining when you would need this functionality, that you have to be living in this country, etc. Or you could also limit the amount of times a user does it for maximum once in a month or less. And so on.

There's a lot of good alternatives, having bad UX should never be one of them.

Otherwise your users are just going to solve it their way, like in my case, where I had to create another account and backup all my stuff from the old account simply because I moved from my country.
I think it's fair enough that there should be law to choose out fly zone only for drones to still preserve privacy, tranquility and lessen the noise pollution, some people might think that drones are also hobby for people, but not all people don't have the same exact common things to enjoy.

City of LA is now issuing permits for this kind of issue

Excerpt:
The city and the county of Los Angeles have issued nearly 60 permits for drones on film and TV sets in the last year, according to data from FilmL.A., which handles permits for the Los Angeles region. In addition to the permits, applications for drone waivers have poured in, with more than 200 companies and individuals requesting authorisation from the FAA to operate drones for film production, per the FAA website.

Yes it's not about what they made it look like - and to be clear, my understand was the intent was to replicate the rich leather feel of Steve's private jet. It's that they insistent on making it look like something at all, and that clashed with the entire aesthetic. Stuck out like a sore thumb.

I think it's efficient enough, but not scrupulous or just enough. That's the part that needs to change, and that can only happen by changing laws.

Nah obviously not. I just listed what I know. I mean looking at the list you could maybe tell that I'm mostly interested in programming language implementation (I forgot to list all my Linux and Windows sysops skills that I've gained from years of managing said systems).

The end result is, that (1) my knowledge and skills extend way beyond any of my past or present job descriptions, and (2) (this is probably even more important for employers/productivity) that I'm capable of, and curious enough to actually want to, learning quickly/deeply and solving hard problems that might not have an obvious instant-knowledge-based solution.

I think that anyone that has ever had an interest to go "beyond" (in any way) the obvious, or immediately what's necessary in his/her day job, would built such a knowledge base - but could of course be completely unrelated to mine (e.g. networking specialist, cryptography geek, hardware/embedded engineer, ...).

Could you back it up? You've literally only linked the race condition article and not provided any detail, like which race condition under which circumstances and why it can't be dealt with.

The fact that you're claiming this multiple times with 0 detail and no evidence makes me think you're someone with an interest in something against Bitcoin.

"Plugging in the device on your network doesn't make it magically see all of the traffic" ... Assuming it has not been constructed to do all of the things you list (or more) does not magically make it not see all of your traffic either. There is no magic involved, it is either constructed to capture/inject or not -- the only way to know is to review the actual bits and firmware.
Because, while it is a landmark achievement, it has little relevance to which people have access to health care, which people are confined to cages their entire lives, or which people are allowed to make decisions about their own bodies -- and, in the US, other stories are very relevant to these questions right now.

Using storage along with worker code to perform the function should make this possible.
