Gay person’s perspective: Even in the worst case, a straight man’s dating pool is so much larger I’m envious.

Also something to consider: When 2 straight people couple off, it’s only -1 from the dating pool as far as other straight people are concerned. But when a gay couple exits the dating pool, there’s a loss of 2 people, heightening competition for an already tiny pool.
I don't trust facebook period.

they can still relicense it in the future if they manage to kill off their competition. At that point I'd have to hope that someone will fork a pre license change version. Don't want to risk dealing with that crap don't want to support facebook.
They're ( they, the MDR 7506 ) kind of a industry standard in professional editing and mixing settings, not to mention as monitors. They sound pretty good to a lot of people. I 'grew up' on them, perhaps I'm biased. I've got a pair kicking around that are over 20 years old.

Absolutely, get the cans that sound good to you. Get whatever sounds good to you, doesn't matter what they are. But, please, give a listen to as many different cans as you are able to. Speakers and headphones are terribly, terribly subjective.

Did I type "netfl" and hit enter a million times the first few months I used it? Probably.
It’s not like fossil fuel pollution is benign to wildlife.

Does it really make sense to call bird deaths from power lines “wind turbine related” just because those power lines serve wind turbines? You’d still need them if you used another source of energy.
Cool! Kinda like d3 but without javascript.
It's a zero-sum game, and the gender ratio guarantees that the majority of those trying to follow your advice will still fail. I agree with you that adversity can lead to personal growth, but failing too many times can cause some people to become demoralized. You conceded as much when you said that "some men come out of the experience jaded and bitter." It sounds like they'd be better served by a less one-sided dating environment, where they could actually land a date here and there and gain some confidence in the process.
I am sure you've thought of this, but what about referral fees for employers? Seems like you are building a great pipeline of talent.

Give GKE a whirl.

This is the same advice I gave to the AKS product manager.
Product management, user centered design, how to run effective user interviews etc. how to run a meeting. A retrospective. How to give feedback - especially hard feedback. Those last ones are less titles than useful skills.
i had that problem with a google pixel. the 5th cable worked. buy a bunch of random ones online.
Making things like that persist is done through the powershell profile stored at $profile. It is the equivalent of a ~/.bashrc.
my guess is that the NSA, spy agencies from China, Bloomberg, SuperMicro, Apple, Amazon and anyone else involved are carefully watching HN comments to see who interprets the story correctly so they can seek that person out and hire
Or massive public works projects like nuclear reactors.

But yeah, obviously dams and deep wells with pumps are orders of magnitude less expensive than nuclear reactors. So that's likely where the money will go.

But it's ALL gonna be pricey. Only thing that isn't quite as pricey are the fossil fuels. Very little stomach for future development on those however.
agreed. I have a Moto g5 plus and apart from a not top of the line camera - it is pretty great for the price and has a nice clean vanilla android.
I use all of these and they work for me. I'll add that sometimes at the end of my day I'll do a bunch of @todo comments in code I am working on. Either stuff I want to do tomorrow or notes on figuring out a problem.

If I was struggling with those, I generally resolve them very quickly the next day. Subconscious, fresh brain, or both. I don't know, but it works for me.

> Dating in these cities as a single man in your 20s and 30s is good for the soul. It forces you to actually develop a personality, figure out how to be fun to be around. Have something interesting going on for you besides working at startup x.

And the women will ignore you anyway because they only care about someone who is a 9/10 and makes at least $300K+.

Why stack the deck against yourself? If you are a guy looking for a woman, LEAVE THE BAY AREA. Period.

Jumping on this bus.

AWS UI was usable. Mostly stuck to automation or the CLI though. Azure was... I didn't use it a lot, but I thought it was terrible.

With GCP, I find the CLI to be more intuitive, but even still, I find myself using the UI more often than not, it's that good.

I just wish the GCP console people would talk to the Gsuite admin people.
It'd be interesting to know gender ratios as they exist at specific levels of attractiveness.

Since you can't really objectively measure that, the next best thing would be via something like Tinder's internal ELO score it assigns each user.

Distribution of ELO across genders would also be interesting. I've often heard statements like "the top n% of [gender] are fought over by x-y% of [gender]".

As an aside, I really loathe the fact that part of the optimal route for finding romance these days seems to be surrendering oneself to a collection of proprietary/black-box algorithms.
> I'm not an economist so maybe this is something about economics per se.

No, this is just a case of historical contingency, or the founder effect, depending on your preferred metaphor. Stata and Mathematica are suitable tools (and were suitable early on) that happened to be adopted by a few economists, whose choice was then spread and perpetuated via various organizations and institutions, word of mouth and curricula.
This not 100% true. I am not advocating first principles. I am advocating mathematical modeling. Mathematically modeling vision seems pretty much impossible. I do think there are many theoretical parts of topology that might be useful like homotopy. It could be the case that the "next calculus" needs to be discovered. By that I mean a totally new branch of math that will change mathematics for the next several hundred years (the same way Newton and Leibniz did with the invention of calculus). It took a very long time for us to go from algebra to calculus, in the end calculus ended up being simple. The same may be true here.

Or another scenario, instead of modeling vision, model the brain, mathematically (this is the path I favor)

There are mathematicians trying to model the brain. Unfortunately the field is very new, around 50 years or so. Deep learning and neural networks (in their current form) are temporary. There is a tremendous amount of experimental and quantitative work that was done in the last 50 years that (I believe) will solve vision far better than deep learning.

My major question to you is, why do people use back propagation?

https://www.axios.com/artificial-intelligence-pioneer-says-w...

This is the smartest thing Hinton has said in his career. Back propagation is a pseudoscience, sort of like ether theory was.

Deep learning is a pseudo science. Why back propagation? Why sigmoid function? I know the intuitions behind why these decisions were made. It's all questionable, there is no rigor to it, nor is there experimental evidence for any of this. Pseudoscience.

What will replace back propagation and the sigmoid or the relu function?

The guys modeling the brain have a good idea. Right now is a wonderful time, there are institutes all over the world that have done tremendous amount of work in this domain. There's a wide amount of competing ideas and models. These ideas haven't trickled their way into computer science yet, and remain esoteric. Which one is the right one? I have my "team" already picked, and it will solve audio and vision, and basic problems in language. But the proof is in the pudding.

Will it give us AGI? (Hint: no it won't. Not in our life time at least, the math isn't there yet).
Well if you are running k8s you already have that person. The real question is, is it worth putting additional load on that person in exchange for savings?
You are describing attention deficit disorder.
I googled coal subsidy and this is the first result.

There's a lot of tax credits and subsidies. "Clean coal" for instance, or 3.4 billion for carbon sequestration (did that get past the lab yet?)

What hopefully will happen is that electricity from non-fossil fuels will become cheap enough and technology will become advanced enough that humans can create hydrocarbons from the air and water (CO2 and H2O) at a price that keeps those trillions of barrels in the ground. Or at least lets us stop burning them.
Couple things:

Cross-region networking. To this day, I'm flabbergasted this isn't something that AWS has. All the other networking bits seem more sensible to me as well.

Another, is 2Gbps per core up to 8 cores which is way more throughput than I've seen on any AWS or Azure instance.

On workloads where I care about Network IO:CPU ratio, I'm using 8 core nodes and seeing 16gbps throughput between them consistently.
Online dating is a small subset of real world dating, so doesn't have any connection with gender ratio etc.
E.g. in SF women are more readily using online dating to hunt for better prospects, since more of them are there.
>Of course there are some terrible externalities that we don’t price in...

Like securing our energy interests in "difficult" parts of the world using an intelligence service so pricey that it's illegal for us to ask how pricey it is. (Along with a pricey military to go along with that intelligence service now that I think about it.)
Don’t forget the massive implicit subsidies they get in the form of dumping their pollution into our shared environment.
They commented that they just started rolling it out this week.

The problem is that they should have spent 0% of their time on prediction and 100% of their time on actual tracking.

Once you have tracking, prediction pretty much comes along for the ride.

If you write your application correctly, it should be portable between kubernetes clusters.

Figuring out how to manage kubernetes on different providers can be a little tricky.
As someone who's nowhere close to any of those numbers and has had an exceptional level of success in the Bay, I can tell you that those requirements are bullshit, and very, very common justifications that men tell themselves to resort to inaction.

Dating is like anything else, it's a skill. So is knowing how to present yourself, how to be charismatic, how to market yourself, how to be at the right place at the right time. It's a crazy amount of effort, and it takes years, but again, if you want it bad enough, it's doable. It's kind of like fitness, it will take you many years and a serious amount of lifestyle changes and sacrifice to go from overweight to looking like a fitness model, but it's doable if that's what you want.

The Bay is hard, but then you can extend that reasoning to all dating. Why bother dating American women who want you to have your shit together? Buy a mail order bride from a third world country, who will appreciate you for putting a roof over her head. Go with that arbitrage then.
>I would reckon you should have at least 1 full time person on staff to handle all of it.

What exactly would that person be handling? We probably spend no more than a couple hours per week handling everything involved. That's the point of something like Kubernetes in the first place.

>Will your workload on Google cost more than $50k?

Our sever bill with GKE would far exceed $50k/yr (it would exceed $50k/mo!)

As a result, Hetzner is a no-brainer for us. As mentioned before, that might be different for you if you are doing something that is computationally light.

>Leave a currently solved code part partially done or leave a compile issue on the area you were working on, then wake up the next day, finish that part and you can flow right into other work because the domain is in your mind.
True. However, I think in a real shooting war those aircraft could be attacked by a huge number of low tech weapons and get overwhelmed. From what I know about warfare often large numbers will eventually overwhelm every kind of defense. For example could an aircraft carrier handle 10000 incoming drones? I hope we'll never find out...
There's a word for that!

>Besides, you have to be on the ship already.

That's a problem if you just encounter the ship on open sea, but if you anticipate a conflict it shouldn't be hard to turn one of the literally thousand people crewing the ship. Just find one person who you can force/incentivize to plug an LTE enabled network device in and start hacking from a safe distance (bring your own LTE base station for hacking on open sea).
To help 'gamify' getting things done, I recently added the ability to set the timer in Lanes (https://lanes.io) to sync with any Youtube video.

So instead of tidying for 10 minutes, for example, you can tidy for the length of your favorite track - the timer will match the length of the video, the audio will play and the time will be logged. If you have routine tasks this turns out to be a pretty effective way of breezing through them.

My org has hit the 100 pods/node limit and it bugs me immensely. We have a fair number of idle pods and we're using n1-highmem-16 nodes. I'd rather be using much larger nodes, but I'd have a hard time warming the cores and getting my money's worth.

It'd be nice to use larger nodes and have more overhead, but I suspect kubelet would have a hard time.
Sure. The simultaneous trends toward cheaper low-emission sources and more expensive fossil fuels will force a switch at some point. We'll also need negative emissions (i.e., atmospheric carbon removal) at some point too.

Now, will it be more expensive to keep drilling and remove the emissions than it will be to cook long-chain hydrocarbons? It's not clear. And it doesn't really matter, since either way you can hit a carbon target.
> Earplugs make me feel claustrophobic, and I have the uncontrollable urge to rip them out after 15 minutes.

I used to have similar problems; but I've learned to adapt to them with time and patience. All other things being equal, I've found that earplugs can be very effective in reducing noise levels and stress, at the slight expense of vague uncomfortability.
Why not? Parent raises a good point, how do we define a single task?

If you are playing one melody with your left hand on the piano and one with your right, is that one task or two?
I agree that the comment came across as from some one without skin in the game themselves. But I also believe the current procurement process is broken and after spending time using these systems I don’t hold the people building them responsible, but the Admirals, Generals, Executives, and Politicians who smooze at places like Tailhook and shoot down opposition to the status quo. The parent may be right that we won’t course correct until a catastrophe happens. All industries have issues, but the military isn’t an industry and deserves better for $1.6 Trillion. This report is terrifying and exemplifies the sad state of the military’s conventional weapons systems. But agree that most those in defense are often trying their best to do good.
This is a very dramatic opinion, but its one I've been thinking about for a while.

What is Google's five year plan with their hardware ecosystem? The only thing I can come up with is "continue gathering data to build experiences which enable them to sell ads and continue to gather more data", which feels reductive and has almost nothing to do with hardware.

The Pixel has always, in a broader market sense, been a bit of a non-starter. Its a fine device, don't get me wrong, but they sold 3.7M in 2017 [1]. Compare that to ~220M iPhones [2] or ~30M Samsung devices [2]. Its not even close. No one looks at LG's phone business and thinks its healthy, but that's the magnitude of sales we're talking about.

And their disastrous attempts at "premium" ChromeOS hardware. The Pixelbook was the most hilariously horrible device Google has ever made (wait... maybe that should go to the Pixel C?). The Slate looks a lot better, but where's the value compared to the cheaper Surface Pro 6 or iPad Pro? ChromeOS is an amazing platform for your grandma, but that doesn't sell units. And how does ChromeOS further Google's broader ecosystem goals? I use G-Suite personally and I feel no draw to buy one of these things, and I should be their target market.

If they're trying to take back more control of the Android market, they're failing. So, they've got the web. The "open web" isn't even a strategic moat for them; its the minimum price for them to exist. And geeze, even then, Apple is destroying them by forcing Safari on iOS.

This is way out in left field, but I think what Google needs to do is work on a WebASM-native processor architecture and design. Fuchsia and Flutter isn't enough alone, because they're still going to rely on companies like Samsung or Huawei to distribute the hardware, which is tenuous; these companies might see Fuchsia as an opportunity to take even more control of Android.

The kube-state-metrics service runs as part of the kubernetes API and provides container metrics. It replaces heapster.

The node exporter runs as a daemonset on each node and provides node specific metrics like CPU, memory, disk IO, network IO, etc.

The node metrics comes from the node itself.
Coal? Or oil and gas?
Very much this. Something resembling an arbitrary number of groups per file (essentially a set of tags) and an analogous (arbitrarily numerous) set of tags applied to a process which match the launched binary. Bonus points if file format or other characteristics can somehow be worked in to automate things a bit while still maintaining security. A simple tagged group membership approach like this seems like it would be reasonably easy to use without getting in your way.

Does anything remotely resembling this already exist?

Edit: Before anyone says that SELinux resembles this, as far as I'm aware SELinux policies are anything but simple to set up and use correctly. However, SELinux types are inherited from parent directories and do look an awful lot like this. The main thing missing would seem to be that I can't find how to apply multiple contexts or types to a single file, but perhaps I'm just failing to navigate the manual?
This is one of those things, in light of the continual expansion of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, that I'm not sure I'd make a blog post about. Kinda neat though.
I am not sure if you're just a German telecom employee based out of US or an actual native German working for this German telecom company in Germany. If latter, your english is extraordinarily above and beyond what I've generally exhibited with a lot of my personal German friends.

I agree with what you're saying, but I want to nitpick your data: that site doesn't take age into account when ranking cities by gender ratio. For example, the reason El Paso, TX tops their chart is because lots of older women live there[1].

> Goods/services purchased from a business? Given the fees for completing a Bitcoin transaction, I'd say no unless you start getting into at least mid three-figures USD. (That's not counting any fees to convert fiat into BTC.)

what? 15-20 cents is not a major transaction fee, especially when compared to WU and other alternatives

You may have had a point with fiat conversion fees which can be hefty, but you specifically didn't count them.

I've only paid a > $.50 transaction fee on the bitcoin network for about 45 days during the huge runup in Nov/Dec 2017. Any other time and the fees are in the double-digit cents for nearly guaranteed confirmation on the next block.

When it comes to project work, more so in a corporate or team environment, I also like to consider the people involved as a motivating factor: by not doing the work involved, you impact the people around you. Ultimately everything we do, have done, or ever will do is all about people and society.
