Okay ... and how to enforce this ?

Because reality is that this would essentially require policing every commit that ever makes it to public serving in every company.

To call that unreasonable is vastly understating matters.
That is in this post.
I guess it's scary, but people do drop dead. I was working at a startup once, and in my monitor reflection, I see the guy behind me drop to the floor. He started convulsing, and then was still. We called the paramedics, but the next morning we learned he had died. That was it. No warning. An otherwise healthy guy. You never know when it's going to be your day.

It's downvoted because you, like your profile says, are "opinionated, inconsistent, irrelevant, irreverent and incontrovertible", and regardless of the number of times you are told that you are wrong and that H1Bs are dual-intent visas, keep parroting the same trash in every immigration related thread. Please quit proliferating nonsense untruths.

And here, for future reference, because short of a citation of the law, and probably even then, you won't quit spreading junk knowledge:

b) Presumption of status; written waiver
Every alien (other than a nonimmigrant described in subparagraph (L) or (V) of section 1101(a)(15) of this title, and other than a nonimmigrant described in any provision of section 1101(a)(15)(H)(i) of this title except subclause (b1) of such section) shall be presumed to be an immigrant until he establishes to the satisfaction of the consular officer, at the time of application for a visa, and the immigration officers, at the time of application for admission, that he is entitled to a nonimmigrant status under section 1101(a)(15) of this title.
So far the main CPU hog is (unsurprisingly) media encoding, especially video. Luckily this occurs off the main thread, inside C function calls. Unless I'm mistaken the GIL is released, so there is no Python-specific downside on this specific point.

I've found heavy usage of asyncio.Queue to bridge consumers / producers does not lead to amazing performance, so I'm trying to cut down on that pattern in favour of.. callbacks (I know - not very asyncio-ish). A good testcase for testing performance without media encoding is transferring large amounts of data over datachannels (see datachannel-filexfer example). I usually hit ~ 70Mbps on the loopback interface, which is more than I've managed to get out of browsers.

I can't say I have experience with using aiortc at scale yet, so there are almost certainly so hotspots I haven't seen.
> However, if you actually spend time to work out a process and organization that will not require additional each-to-each communication and make most of the communication remain in close groups, you may avert this. You can call this a human refactoring, if you will - very similar idea to separate functionality into small, encapsulated classes with smalles possible public interface instead of one huge g-d class.

I dont think this is an exception to my rule; you can reduce the overhead significantly with good process, but any process that does not perfectly predict who needs to know what information will incur some per-person overhead as a team grows.

Perhaps you are arguing that this overhead can be reduced to the point of being close enough to zero to not matter? If so, that would be very impressive, and conflicts with my experience.
Be good-ish at 2 or 3 different things - one of which is programming which has a leveraging effect on anything else you learn (just trust the default libraries). Being good-ish at 2-3 different things (as a strategy) is rare and if you're actively looking you can translate that into valuable.
This is the big surprise to me:

> Finding 2: People want fine-grained controls over the data they share with apps.

While I personally 100% agree, I would have guessed that the vast majority of Google users (i.e., non-HN crowd) wouldn't care about fine-grained controls. I wonder if they found that some people passionately care and most didn't care one way or another. In other words, perhaps the people that click/tap through permissions prompts are going to continue clicking through, but the change could win back some privacy conscious consumers.
I'm important to mention that the 100$ include a 33% larger L3 cache.

E2 visa is employment-based, which means the applicant needs to be employed by the time they applies (usually through OPT or H1B).

So it's not an "either-or" situation.
More importantly, with more and more talent present in Canada, more and more startup funding will move there.
I take your point re the ability of banks to innovate. But the Brex product is not technological. They are simply saying, we’ll lend against cash collateral. That’s the type of things banks might be better at.

Let's see. At 1-3% annual failure rate, we expect to need to rebuild a couple drives in each array per year. To make the math simpler, let's have each server send and receive 8.5TB and do 1/120 of the parity math.

Since we have plenty of redundancy, let's keep things low-priority up to 3 drive failures, and try to rebuild each drive in 90 days. For bonus points, if two drives are rebuilding at once the increase in bandwidth is negligible.

8.5TB in 90 days is less than 10mbps. That means we could build servers with 50 drives and a single gigabit connection and if they were rebuilding every array at the same time it wouldn't even use half that bandwidth.

Real servers are going to have vastly faster connections and probably a lot fewer drives, so honestly that petabyte of I/O is not a big deal in context. In practice you could replace failed drives in a day, and the limiting factor is the speed of a single drive, not the network.
If you have an autoinflammatory disease (of which there are many) then absolutely anything that lowers blood sugar and slows you down will improve your symptoms for the simple reason that your body doesn't have quite as much spare energy to attack itself. But you're still deliberately making life difficult your body, so a shorter lifespan isn't too surprising.

Vert short periods of ketogenesis are a different story entirely.

I spent less than a couple hours with Workbox last week to get some apps running offline. It's the easiest to use among the tools I've looked into so far.
But you are releasing the server binaries for people to run on arbitrary hardware. Surely different CPUs and machine profiles move the performance thresholds on various dataflow implementations?

Thank you. Good explanation.
It's exceedingly depressing and it's one of the reasons I can't stomach the Bay Area.

It doesn't take long to notice serious manifestations of societal rot. And yet some of the brightest minds of our generation spend their best years trying to get people to spend more of their cognitive surplus on mindlessly staring at their device screen.

I'm not at all saying this is tech's fault. I think the problem is much more systemic. But that doesn't make it any less troublesome.
In this case they destroyed the company instead of just saying 'space is cheap' and paying for it.

It isn't free, but it's certainly cheaper than killing your entire company.
The US hands out one million green cards per year. There has not been a meaningful reduction in how much immigration is allowed into the US nor in how many green cards are issued. You'll notice something entirely missing from the article: there are no actual figures supporting its claims anywhere to be found, only a few individual anecdotes.

What's happening is Canada is trying to become more aggressive in the pursuit of tech immigrants that are tired of waiting for US citizenship. It's a sensible plan on their part, and the US can afford the loss. The US isn't suffering from a tech employee deficit, despite the propaganda out of the big tech companies that want cheaper labor. The tech giants are all generating obscene profits, and they can all afford to pay very high salaries.

Microsoft + Google + Facebook + Amazon + Intel + Apple = ~$165 billion in likely 2019 profit. Excuse me while I cry over their labor costs.

The Trump Admin + Republican Congress have barely changed anything in relation to immigration. The major immigration legislation speaks for itself: there hasn't been any. And the Democrats are about to take back to the House.

The biggest complaint you'll see, is that there's a long wait time, which illustrates the extreme demand for US citizenship, as the rate of green card issuance hasn't declined.
> As an Amazon employee, I really hope this factors in highly in the HQ2 decision.

Seems like a natural hedge against anti-tech, anti-modern US establishment.
Doesn't hurt to spread out though.
Not to mention you probably want to pick it up last, so it stays colder longer. This way you don't have to carry milk around the store while you look for all the other items you need.

Although, maybe that's an argument for putting it by the checkout lines instead, which I suppose are by the entrance. Hm.
WebAssembly can't close the open web anymore than it's already closed today. The vast majority of JS in the browser today is minified jibberish. WebAssembly doesn't take away HTML and CSS.
And if you should want to pursue something on a large scale that is not currently trending in government or social circles?

Space is maybe the clearest example of the problem with governments doing anything outside of creating a playground for innovation. 1969 was probably the greatest single government led achievement. We put a man on the moon, having only first put a man into orbit in 1962 and any object into orbit in 1958. That was when space had the government's full attention both as a possible means of weaponization and as a soft power victory of communist powers [ironically] aiming to show the resolve and capability of capitalist nations.

But that same story also shows the downsides of government dependence. Today, nearing the 50th anniversary of putting a man on the moon - we're severely struggling to try to send a man around the moon. And in fact no human would ever leave low Earth orbit after 1972. We not only stopped progressing technologically, we actually and literally technologically regressed. On top of this regression, government never has much of any motivation to cut costs or improve efficiency since they're short term public 'servants' who are just spending other peoples' money. Because of this costs became insane. After all was said and done the Space Shuttle program ended up costing more than half a billion dollars per launch.

At the risk of being tautological, corporations let people pursue what people want to pursue. Governments, by contrast, pursue what governments want to pursue. If you don't like what the government's pursuing you can try to influence votes, lobby, or 'raise social awareness' but in reality it's generally going to be about as effective as pissing into the wind. By contrast, anybody can start a company and start making whatever they want to. And indeed maybe SpaceX would be the proper epilogue here.

Enter corporations. Elon Musk wanted to send a greenhouse to Mars. The costs were unacceptable. It made no sense to him why a rocket that cost on the order of tens of millions of dollars in materials would cost hundreds of millions of dollars to contract. And indeed it didn't make any sense. So he started a company and changed it. Now costs are down by nearly an order of a magnitude, SpaceX is one of the world's largest supplier of launches, and it's looking increasingly likely that the first person to leave our orbit in nearly half a century won't be doing so on a government rocket, but on a privately built, privately funded, and privately launched rocket.

Of course SpaceX would never have been able to get to where they are without governmental contracts and assistance, so I'm not proposing anything like anarcho-capitalism, but rather that government should is the one that provides the sandbox - the people are the ones that build as they choose.
> Logs show that it has never been used by anyone.

Citation needed. Google's blog post wasn't very clear, but it sounds like an API that more than 400 developers use returned more data than was intended. Google thinks the developers didn't use this information, but logs wouldn't help Google come to this conclusion.

Murdoch has a vendetta, but Google isn't being transparent here either.
I think there's a psychological facet at play as well.

It may well be statistically bad for the bottom line, but it's much easier for the day-to-day. Planning things is hard, decomposing work is harder still, and making sure that the things you build are architected and organized in such a way that they can be planned and decomposed is the hardest yet; it's the same reason parallel programming is hard, I think (this, granted, all from a software perspective).

So even if yes, it may be biting people in the long term, the short-termism is that it's way easier to get things done because you (as the exec) just ask one person to do the entire project, and they maintain all that complexity in their head, never needing to translate it out into shallower, noisier channels, and the 'difficulty overhead' of sound planning, architecture, management, and communication is avoided.

The "I'll just do it myself" culture is really hard to escape from, too, because I think we feel more productive in it, even if we aren't (compared to an organization that effectively staffs work out, and has the staff to accommodate). Intuitively, you're doing all this work and your fingers are constantly flying across the keyboard. You've got so many commits in today. You feel a lot more powerful than you do writing up issues and stories, and asking for statuses. And at the same time, it's a lot easier than writing up issues and stories (ones that will be genuinely useful as planning and work items, at any rate). It's part of why hero-efforts remain pervasive, I think. And it's a kind of sunk-cost fallacy at the end of the day; you're so deep in it already that you may as well just put this one last little bit of effort in and finish it yourself, rather than waste all the time documenting and decomposing and planning so that you can better facilitate parallel, distributed work.

what do you have in mind?
Oh, there are many reasons we have large organizations, and one of them is that you simply cannot do some things with a small team. I think you have to bend the definition of efficiency to it's breaking point to argue that producing 15 widgets with 10 people is more efficient than producing 10 widgets with 5 people though.

A Honda Fit is clearly a more fuel efficient car than an F1 racer. This remains true whether or not the problem you are solving is "win an F1 race," which would necessitate using the latter.

1. I'd say that the other way around: eBPF has already been hardened in a post spectre/meltdown world (see lkml), and I'm not sure DTrace has had the same level of security attention.

2. That's inaccurate, see the bpftrace docs for uprobes and usdt.

Part of ethics also has to do with the resources. With our current state of the art cloning frankly sucks. Cloning Steven Hawkings just gets you a baby who will certainly get very sick. Even cloning livestock becomes unethical because of the sheer pointless indulgence. You are basically better off with sexual reproduction unless you want to attempt resurrection of dead species incubated by their nearest kin which adds further complications to get one let alone sustainable numbers.

A vaccine with a 10% chance to kill someone but protect from a widespread disease killing 99.99999% of the infected and exposes it to 20 other people under even strictest quarantine measures it becomes ethical to dose everyone against their will at the risk of literal decimation because the alternative is so much worse. A vaccine against the common cold with a 1% chance of death becomes a no for everyone and a maybe for immunocompromised if the chance of a lethal cold is higher and if it works for them in the first place.
Sorry, I meant EB-2 insteand of E2.
Salaries are incredibly high in SF because of the high supply; it's an aggregation/network effect. SF is the world's tech center. As that starts fading globally, and SF is no longer the obvious and undisputed place to base your operations, great developers moving to other locations should drive up wages there and start heating up the job markets in those cities that are now becoming mini-SFs now that they're no longer being starved of oxygen from everyone migrating to SF.
Don't share this...
This was explained really well! I feel more knowledgeable now.
Would instagram work? (I have some photographer friends and they seem fairly active there).
The Internet Archive is a non-profit which in and of itself provides it with freedom to pursue unselfish ends. As long as decent people remain at the helm, the only acceptable options for it and similar non-profits at critical times would be to downsize or close, but never to repurpose the resources they've been entrusted with toward selfish and evil ends that will bring them loads more money.

For public companies beholden to greedy, money-focused shareholders, it's a different story. I don't know that they can help to be anything BUT selfish and probably evil. "Don't be evil" can only be a secondary directive to these beasts, and one to be discarded when it gets in the way of the primary directive of making as much money as possible. For these corporations, if being "good" ever requires "making less money than legally possible", they won't be able to stay good for long.
There is no "human dignity" in the Tenderloin. If rampant homelessness and poverty is "essential to the character of the city", then that only goes to show that the character of this city is a shithole.

I've only been living here for two months (a few blocks north of Tenderloin). I already want out at the earliest opportunity. Why anyone voluntarily lives here is beyond me.
Right, it's an optics problem. Trump gets in office and suddenly everyone starts seeing old issues in a new light. But as you pointed out, almost nothing has changed.

Ends up US citizenship is in real demand. It's also not a surprise that two of the most back logged nationalities, China and India, have the most populous countries.
Not that this will (or should) surprise anyone at all, but I noticed (perhaps more so than normal) that many of the top headlines about this more than subtly imply that the shutdown was a result of the potential data exposure, rather than the lack of popularity.

I've flown a plane a few times before with an instructor, so I am not commenting completely out of ignorance. I am not claiming to be an expert. I also don't own a drone. I am also interested in getting a pilot's license.

I also didn't claim that all passenger craft were large jets, didn't claim that planes would NEVER have to enter space below 400ft AGL miles from an airport. In fact a single engine plane flying that low is even more dangerous as it has less redundancy. I've flown in them. Nothing is without risk and someone flying in a low approach like that has plenty of risk besides drones which are more significant than drones. Also we aren't talking about < 1000ft AGL, we are talking 400 which is a tremendous difference. Yes a controller can do a lot to clear airspace but they aren't going to clear wildlife, trees, and other structures which are a risk at that level or lower much greater than 2lb drones.
I think you're right about this for many people but not all.

Intel stepping up the lane counts in HEDT is definitely a good reactionary move but won't affect the budget-constrained scenarios I discussed until a few years from now because you can just buy a couple generations back. I might be wrong but I believe many X299 chips before gen 9 had 16-24 lanes?

I also don't think your point about price difference insignificance is universally applicable because buying extra GPUs over time is quite common and having an extensible box with 1-2 GPUs at the start is potentially a good move. As for the PCIe switches on the X399 chipset IMO this depends on the assertion that 16x is X% better than 8x. This depends on use case and analysis of the penalty you get at 8x vary but many people would take a 10-15% penalty down the road @ 4 cards (really 5-7.5% because it only affects 2/4 cards) to save money now.

I built a box with Intel because I had the capital, and most people at an industry job probably should, but if you read forum and mailing list threads many people are faced with this economic decision and are going TR - I see quite a few academics doing this. Math libraries are a good thesis topic :)
We all went out at some point in a pub or club and realised that we are the only ones in that place, even if it had very good reviews. uVibe solves exactly this problem: not only it shows you a list of the most relevant nearby places, but it also tells you in which moment of the day to go there and get the best experience out of it.

We listen to social signals so we can tell you in real time from real users, where and when to go out in your city.
