There is not just a single explanation, but I'll give it a go. 1) Many industry titans such as MS, Apple and Monsanto, just as examples, have encouraged employees to participate in forums like this in order to affect conversations and influence debates, so real users of a strong bias against uncomfortable truths/facts use down votes in a way not intended. 2) from those same types of companies, sockpuppetry has become a pervasive and powerful item in their toolbelt, accomplishing the same as above but with inorganic users and on a large scale. 3) HN has some extremely good commentators, some who have been around for a long time, but I have noticed a large careening away from the type of hackeristic dogged pursuit of truth and lack of fear of attacking power that seemed to be the core of HN in its earlier days. in particular, since the user protested and ignored rule change to "don't be negative" , where heated debates between truth to power speakers and status quo speakers tend to bring the hammer down on those against the status quo. Hence why I say HN seems to me to have become much More than ever before, MBAs who pretend to be hackers, instead of the other way around. 4) As a greybeard sysadmin type, I think many users suffer from Stockholm syndrome, and will blindly downvote (usually with no comment) attacks against their kidnappers, even if truthful.
You say that as if removing feral cats and other non-native predators is "simple".
Ask HN: What percent of PRs on your project has “fix” in the title?
﻿I'm working on a project for a few years and we just noticed that 15% of our pull requests have "fix" in the title. That made me wonder, what's the number on other project. Would you mind checking? You can find pull requests with "fix" in the title on GitHub with "is:pr is:closed fix in:title".

Based on the details, it seems like there was basically zero substantive discussions behind his tweet, so no need for a deep investigation if everyone you call says "yeah he had nothing".
Sorry, but this is not how you do numeric benchmarks. Most real programs that deal with numbers also manipulate data structures and call many standard library methods. If those things are slow, your app is slow. This benchmark doesn't demonstrate anything that would translate into real-life performance.
But there's no technical reason this behavior must be Windows-only; it's just that way now because Linux isn't a business priority. The fundamental architecture, where UEFI software can write to a filesystem on the disk, applies to Linux installs just as much as Windows.

Using Linux is likely a good move, and encrypting your filesystem even better. But both of these could be defeated by an appropriately targeted UEFI program. I get the appeal for an enterprise that wants a chance at remotely tracking a stolen laptop, but now we can see how much power can be misappropriated when the system is compromised.
I think it'd be a huge win for short term Tesla investors and Tesla, but not long term investors. Tesla's financials should be pushed as hard as possible to enable scaling rapidly (every dollar not needed in opex should be going to capex or r&d).

Independent directors (in my opinion) would prioritize saving Tesla as an ongoing concern, even if it meant they remained a small boutique manufacturer (vs growing into an energy storage powerhouse).

TL;DR I want Captain Ahab at the helm, chasing his White Whale, swinging for the fences. I don't want Bob Lutz or Lee Iacocca.
idk, a part of me wished he had dirt on some of these short trading firms, Greenlight Capital, etc. Short sellers do seem to have uncanny timing for playing press releases, especially when they are false. Lots of manipulation, especially in crypto, causing enormous losses. However, rarely do I see the SEC go after these guys. I would like the SEC to go after both, not just Musk, if it does turn out he defrauded investors. I admit, I want to see Tesla succeed, but not at the expense of HODLers, owners, and tech enthusiast. Musk doesn't need to be at the helm of Tesla for it to succeed. We just need somebody in there that can stabilize the excessive spending and research, start reducing the debt incurred. If Tesla can ever shed the debt, they wont have to worry about short sellers and the TSLA share price.

An Intel engineer gave a presentation at the 2016 LLVM Developers' Meeting that gives some insight: http://llvm.org/devmtg/2016-11/Slides/Ansari-Code-Alignment.... (for the slides).

Essentially, some of the loop heuristics work on a 32-byte window, not a 16-byte window. An interesting statistic would be to find where all the loops are in the code as relative offsets, and find how these shift based on starting alignment.

Clearly you've had some frustrations using GNU/Linux, and I'm sorry you've had to deal with that. It must be really upsetting to have your problems disregarded like that by other people, and not being listened to.

However, it's also quite inappropriate to completely ignore the main point of someone else's comment and vent all these frustrations on them for using the informal term "fanboying", and I don't think that doing so contributes anything to the current discussion about whether GNU/Linux is vulnerable to this rootkit.

In species where adults raise their young, the young are typically hanging around with the parent for a while between when they're able to walk/fly on their own and when they reach full maturity.

The parent sees/smells a predator and flees/hides; the young flee/hide with it. They learn that the response to the stimulus associated with the predator is to flee/hide.
Hi skrebbel, storage is my project at Cloudflare.

Last write wins, for some definition of last (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eventual_consistency).

As we see how initial developers make use of the storage, we are planning to add additional synchronization and consistency functionality. For example the ETags model using If-None-Match and If-Match would be appealing to some.
So to prevent a downgrade attack before a first connection is made, not only does the domain need to "includeSubdomains" - and have a valid lifetime (maybe of at least 31536000 seconds, or 1 year [this may just be a government standard]), but they'd also have to send the preload directive in their HSTS header and have been preloaded by that browser platform. If the domain is not preloaded, that first connection is required to get the HSTS information to the client in the Strict-Transport-Security header.
People voted "yes", which means "get me the hell out of the EU, I don't care how"

This experiment seems to have been too short-term to have influenced genetics significantly.
Quite. We shouldn't have had that referendum.

We didn't need a referendum to enact the minimum wage, legalise gay marriage, or many other key positive shifts for British society, and nor have we had referenda for populist ideas like becoming a republic, removing the House of Lords, or reintroducing the death penalty.. so why we got a referendum for such a poorly understood and complex concept as EU membership is beyond me.

Picture a lab.

It's a Nobel laureate's lab. They work on biochemistry. They work on producing drugs that might one day cure cancer. Everyone that works there gets to say, "all the small, day to day, technical things I do ... are opportunities to help advance the fight against cancer!" And it's plausible! They're rockstars!

The primary investigator, he still has to chair like six goddamned committees because that's the institutional politics of his job. But it lets him do his job, so it gives him a chance to cure cancer! Surely that somehow makes all those committees less tiresome and boring. Every time someone spends half an hour arguing the merits of switching what brand of coffee pod they want in the faculty lounge (read: closet), he can think to himself, I'm doing this to cure cancer! Certainly that makes all the boredom just zip and go away.

His senior PhD student? When he's up at three AM writing a last-second response to a peer review of his latest publication of a boring and predictable iteration of their last study (but needed, to juice his pub count and help him land a job FIGHTING CANCER!)... when that response makes it abundantly clear the reviewer didn't bother reading his damn paper and just wants the student to revise it to cite the reviewer's last paper (to juice their pub count)... well, that student can rub the grit out of his eyes, pour himself another cup of discount-brand pod-coffee, and say, this is awesome! I'm helping to fight cancer!

When the janitor comes in in the morning, and gets pissed because the water has turned blacker than the faculty's discount coffee but the nearest closet with a hose is on the other side of the goddamn building, well... hey, that's okay. Because he's keeping this lab clean, which helps the lab workers do their jobs, which means he's helping FIGHT CANCER!

None of that is un-true. All of that helps people get out of bed in the morning. But just because your job, big picture, has a noble end doesn't mean the every-day misery of every-day work is somehow magically awesome.

If I was hiring a doctor, I'd want the person to understand that. Because if they didn't, they'd be a goddamn train wreck once they found out that hours of paperwork hoop-jumping isn't any more exciting just because it's medically related.

I don't mean to go ad-hominem here, but honestly: are you a college student or something? If you've held down a job, you should fully understand that the "mission" of the job is separate from the day-to-day tedium of ... work. Work is work.

'Considering' does not suggest the deal was final. 'Secured' does.

That's a lot of ambiguity for the average layperson on a jury. I assume the SEC has a strong case, but this stuff is nuanced.
Was about to suggest that as well. Its a superb film.
So my take away from this is not that readers are biased or that news is biased, but that we can't give up our own responsibility in identifying the truth. I am aware that news outlets are biased, but knowing that does not mean I can't read articles in those sources and learn from them. It's incumbent on me to put something I read into a larger context, to make educated guesses as to an article's correctness, and to think critically about what is being stated. Otherwise, I will make choices far more prone to some personal bias.

> What makes SQL bad a relational databases, and what is better?

SQL is just a glorified DSL that is constrained, on purpose, to just make a SINGLE query at time.

Not for build A COMPLETE app. That is all what is "wrong" with it. SQL is assumed to be used by end-users, to make ad-hoc queries.

Is like google search. It provide a minimal language but not a why to make a game engine with it. Now imagine, that search box is ALL is provided to developers to build on. And then, all the others full-text indexing libraries do the same. Surely some will extend it with some more sugar, but the fact is, "search: google OR bing" is not enough to be a useful API.

That is why all developers in the world dance around SQL and kind of love-hate it. Them are not en-users and need more power, but that is only partially provided by some RDBMS as extended SQL yet the fundamental limitations hold. The only way around is using FFI with other languages because SQL is not capable enough.

This is partially, and correctly, because a RDBMS is mean to be like a REST server with restricted capabilities that could lend to problems. And because RDBMS are used by non-professionals that have not clue what them are doing... and not only I'm thinking of some end-users. So make sense to restrict their damaging capabilities (so, hard to make rm -rf "/")

The problem is that is ALWAYS assumed this way, even by something like sqlite. You just can't do a full app with sql, so you need to dance around with orms, stringly apis, non-type safety across the logic/tables, not why to make your own indexing strategies, nothing, or make it a REST server directly.
That's informative. Thanks!

No. If the domain (and its subdomains) are preloaded - then a first visit is not required. The HSTS requirement is then baked into a list supported by modern browsers such as Firefox and Chrome.

Almost every year, I end up owing a lot of income taxes; a calculation that I always tend to mess up in order to gain a bit of advantage with the tax laws.

I usually just pay the tax bill, and move on. I'd love to be true to myself, too. But sometimes it just doesn't work. You mess up, you admit it, and no one is mad anymore.

The SEC doesn't regulate people talking shit in public, even when those people are talking shit because they have a financial interest in a public company, or even if they're paying to make their message heard.

They regulate things like people talking shit in public on Twitter while having access to insider information. There's no evidence that any of these people talking shit about TSLA because they hold shorts have access to information not available through the usual market disclosure mechanisms.
Running an OS + application entirely from memory is an interesting approach indeed.

I guess the fundamental big problem you are facing is SD card corruption. In our experience, we've found the SanDisk Extreme Pro cards to be most reliable. (coupled with a good power supply).

Read-only rootfs is almost a must have for any production environment.

resinOS does not satisfy all your requirements (nfs boot, state in memory etc).. But we do have stuff in place to reduce the problems you are facing.

- There is an initramfs in the kernel. When the kernel loads in memory, it runs fsck on the root/data partitions before mounting the rootfs.
- The rootfs is read-only with only a few configuration files in the state partition.
- Applications run inside a container so you can basically run rasbian on top of resinOS.

I wrote more about resinOS in another comment highlighting remote application container updates/vpn access etc.

Disclaimer: I work at resin in the OS team. I've noted down your feedback about running purely in memory.
I think they are living off upsales. I mean, CL already has free plans. Why would an at-cost plan be unbelievable?
And because of that you should not judge me? This is fucking ridiculous.
The only vulnerability left would be, as mentioned above, a client installing a browser that doesn't support HSTS.
This is very cool and I'd like to try it.

I participate in an outreach program that help under privileged children. We use project based learning methods to for topics that aren't covered in the normal curriculum. We also don't have access to enough computers.

I've recently looked into "teaching computer science to kids without using computers" because I believe that the skills are valuable in other domains (for example, being able to think through a problem logically or as an algorithm might help them with mathematics or economics later).

Here are two of the resources I've found:

While I can see async/await replacing a lot of the most common use in JS, anonymous functions have a lot more uses than that (passing a single use function to generic algorithm, like an ordering function to a sorting routine, is one of the more common other uses, across languages.)

Be wary of some packages that expect their log folder to exist at /var/log/some_package else they won't start, I can't remember which of nginix or apache has that issue. That adafruit script is very simple and there are more robust setups out there, albeit not as well documented.

Netbooting isn't 100% reliable and last time I checked there were certain network switches/hubs that caused issues. Maybe that's a non-issue if you are also providing the network infrastructure.

Lastly, remember that the more RAM you consume for your filesystem/logs etc, the less available for our actual application. That becomes more of a problem when you start also assigning a large chunk of that RAM to the GPU.

Since iOS 11 (I believe) the "keychain" persists across app reinstalls. Shitty apps thus put a tracking ID in there to guard against app reinstalls.

If you reinstall your entire device (thus clearing the keychain) you should be able to break the link.

There's also the issue of App Groups, which means that apps from the same developer (Facebook) can share data between them, so if you have Facebook or WhatsApp installed along they can all talk together and figure out what your other accounts are.
The Friday in me wants to reply with "You need to vote on the bill, to know what's in it."

But the actual approach to withdrawal was always going to be incredibly complex. There are obvious, valid reasons for staying in the EU and obvious, valid reasons for leaving the EU. Almost any headline coming from Europe is going to be anti-Brexit; almost every headline about the issue is going to be highly biased.

The pro-Brexit arguments assume that the UK was getting less than it was giving to the EU - sacrificing money, border sovereignty, financial sovereignty for economic incentives that the UK is likely able to negotiate for anyway. The anti-Brexit arguments coming from outside of the UK are mostly impassioned moral attacks insulting anti-globalists, or fearmongering.

The EU has been on a slow decline, and the Brexit may hasten that decline, along with renewed trade pressure from the US and China. Britain holds more cards than every other EU nation besides Germany. It doesn't make sense for them to lend their weight to non-contributing economies.

I'm currently using Yocto for an embedded Linux project, and agree that it just feels so overly complicated for what we're using it for. I've written packages for Arch Linux in the past, and that's a breeze compared to writing bitbake recipes.

The ability to modify existing recipes through append files is nice, but that seems like it could be handled in a normal distro just by forking a package and making changes.

I'm not arguing Musk's tweet wasn't ill advised, but this seems to say a lot about how fragile our system is if 140 poorly thought out characters can cause so much damage. What about the fiduciary duty of all those investors who changed their positions based on this information? If you are putting millions of dollars at risk based on a cryptic tweet, you are failing at your job as much as Musk failed at his, and you don't deserve to be protected by the SEC.

You could probably blame the people responsible for the referendum in the first place, trying to use the notion of a Brexit vote as some sort of political brinkmanship game against the EU and then running for the hills when people didn't vote the way they expected them to.

That's a classic, for sure!
It depends on what kind of a of crime though right, something as innocuous as using pot or other drugs, sure, it's easy to say that should have a second chance --- but if you spent 10 years in prison for a bank robbery, you're probably are not going to get hired at a bank after the background check comes through, and I think that makes sense.

I absolutely believe in second chances, but I understand humans have biases also.

You realize that your position is, effectively, circular, right? Your argument is that readers can't determine an article's bias by reading it. There seems to be a definition of bias you're using here that can't be measured.

What would they go after the short sellers for? Shorting incentivises bubble popping and private antifraud research. I can't think of a single time short sellers trashed a healthy company, yet I can think of several times short sellers pricked something foul before it got too far along.
