It occurs to me that the "you need to do some physical labor" part of that might be an effective parasite-repellent. All cooperative endeavors need some method of handling the occasional parasite, because otherwise they will tend to accumulate. If they have to do physical labor, they would, I'm guessing, tend to move on quickly.
> The I/O necessary for reconstructing one 8.5TB drive in a (100,20) Reed-Solomon group is 850 TB, which comes out to 875 Mbit/s, averaged over 90 days.

You missed the part where I'm dividing the work over all the servers.

We're not having 119 disks read 8.5TB each and sending it all to the server with the new disk.

Instead, 119 servers are each recovering 85GB and then sending that to the server with the new disk.

Each server sends 8.5TB over the network, and receives 8.5TB over the network. You only need 10Mbps per server for slow mode.

> And consider that if any of this data is being served, you incur the 100x I/O penalty immediately.

1% of blocks take 100x the I/O. That's an average of only 2x. But because of data locality, you needed to read most of those blocks anyway. You might only have a few percent penalty.

> To rebuild an 8.5TB drive in 1 day requires 78 Gbit/s of bandwidth. Even inside a data center, oof.

It requires 78Gbps of switching bandwidth. It's easy to get a switch with terabits per second of total capacity. (less than $100 per port on eBay) https://i.dell.com/sites/csdocuments/Shared-Content_data-She...

So I assert that even 100ish drives per group is actually quite easy to handle.
You could choose not to publish the tally (or do you mean for votes that are required to be unanimous?), or agree beforehand not to disclose detailed-enough tallies to draw this conclusion (e.g. report only that 2 or fewer nay's were voted, but not whether that number was 0, 1, or 2.)

But more practically: I kind of doubt it matters when the vote is unanimous, because at that point you're in good company, and it's going to be hard for some external entity to blame you all too much (and if they do, it's easier to find backing for your position from all those that voted like you).
I am talking about just using basic references & borrowing. Once you introduce reference counting (Rc<T> and Arc<T>) and copying, you open up a lot more options, of course, but at this point you also can't make any lifetime guarantees anymore, because objects can escape the "owner's" scope at will.

This article says that Techspot has obtained the 9900 (without being bound by an NDA, as others are), and that Intel is releasing misleading results while other reviewers are bound by an NDA, but that Techspot is not going to show their own benchmarks--which could refute the misleading results Intel has authorized for public release--out of a sense of "professionalism."

Actually, any "professional" journalism outfit would show the public the newsworthy results, not withhold this information from readers because of a desire not to piss off industry contacts.
I had that happen with my polarized sunglasses at a restaurant that had their menus displayed on big vertically-rotated screens behind the counters. I kept looking around for paper menus and didn't realize there was even anything displaying on the screens until I took my glasses off.
I tend to agree with that. Globalization has acted in very interesting ways. I wonder how it will affect the standard of living on a global scale. My guess is that it will have a normalizing effect.
I totally agree. I think this constant need to be doing something is one of the voids that needs to be filled, and it seems to be largely cultural and driven by consumerism. Meditation is a great way to tackle that and many other voids, I regularly find myself feeling much more emotionally levelled out after having meditated successfully.
So you want the script to [EDIT:] exit with an error code rather than hanging around waiting for input? That seems possible, with some sort of generous (e.g. 5 minutes) exit timer on the prompt. Would that satisfy your concerns? If not, what else is needed here?

"small semantic difference"

The tone is quite abrasive and he says that within the year unless python makes dramatic changes, Go is going to take the python developers.

For my comment - he goes into detail about his specific requirement for massive performance on large datasets, doesn't really say why Cython didn't solve the speed problem. I don't think a large fraction of people have those requirements.

The two reasons I think a Go is unlikely to completely swamp python in the near future:

people who need python libraries
people who have a strong aversion to a strongly typed language with a primitive typesystem
>Still, you need to be able to fall back and know when to fall back to more basic behavior. If the user’s stdout isn’t connected to a tty (usually this means their piping to a file), then don’t display colors on stdout. (likewise with stderr)

GCC does this, leading to no colour output where it would be useful if you're building with Google's Ninja-build. Maybe there are some people who do pipe GCC output to a file - I've never had to. If you do this with your app, I'd appreciate being able to re-enable the colour.
Having a support system, and things in your life to focus on outside of your addiction, such as marriage, work, friends, spirituality is certainly important in recovering from addiction, but it is not a cure. It's perfectly normal to experience feelings of wanting to go back to what you were addicted to, especially in times of stress, sadness, or any other emotions you have a hard time handling. Relapsing, or feeling as if you want to go back to your addiction, is not a failure. As most recovering addicts will tell you, relapse is just another part of recovery
Currently employed at a small company and I've been doing a mixture of side projects throughout the years as well. I don't picture myself leaving anytime soon but you never know what the future holds with startups.

Yes, that's the case for most data scientists, and often for users in general. You can get pretty good performance levels from Python by delegating to C correctly. Even end users tend to do that because the data science stack of Python (numpy and the many libraries using it) spend almost all of their runtime in C routines.

If you are using Numpy correctly (even with little understanding of Python itself and its C-API) then virtually all your hot loops are executed in optimal C code.
The reason I'm skeptical of the story is that the people inspecting hardware at Apple are at least as smart as I am. If I would do a certain thing to inspect hardware and firmware, then that means Apple would do at least that thing.

Those are brilliant hardware guys. I'm having a hard time seeing how you sneak something by them. I think maybe in the firmware? (But probably not. They've also got the most brilliant firmware security guys on the planet.)

And on the off chance that this thing did slip by, a picture was provided of the purported part. It would have been a simple matter to go back through all of your audits looking for that part. Because if I'm smart enough to catalog and record my hardware audits, that means that Apple was doing so a looong time before I was.

I don't know man?

I'm getting more and more skeptical of this story by the day.

It depends on what your current job is. We try to err on the side of caution when telling people they will or will not needn’t to pay if they stay in their current role.

Contractually the income share agreement says you’re required to pay if your job is in “software” or “data science.” Obviously it has to be broad, which could be problematic in edge cases, and I don’t want people to have to trust us.
Not sure what you mean by "absorption" of Mandrill, to wit: Mandrill was always an in-house product of the mailchimp company, they just had it as a separate product vertical. My impression is that the effort to maintain the product wasn't financially viable and so it's effectively still run as a courtesy to mailchimp customers, but it's basically on life support.

> as long as the precision of how you record and calculate numbers is greater than that, the solution will be correct.

Well .. not quite, you have to be very aware of the kinds of operations that may result in loss of precision or error accumulation. Whether you're using floating point or longhand decimal.

Conversely algebra operates as infinite precision, allowing the safe manipulation of numbers with no finite representation.

Oh, it's more common a question than you suggest. If I am writing a block of code and I come to some hole in context, for example `foo (bar _) baz`, and I know what type of thing has to go in that hole, then the very next thing I ask is "What term do I need there?".

This is a big question for theoreticians working on new languages. The problem is called canonicity in that context. Here is an example of such a proof of "What terms have this type [in this context]?": https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.04156

And finally, compilers will ask this question if they're nice to you :) Here is GHC recently gaining the ability to ask this: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D3361

The questions are related by proofs of cut elimination / normalization, which is the compatibility between a term and its context. Complex types describe more complex interactions between terms and contexts. Higher rank polymorphism has undecidable inference because a higher rank type can be used in very complex contexts.

There are lots of examples of this phenomenon connected with "the probabilistic method". There the problem is to prove a certain type of object exists (there is at least one piece of hay in the stack). But it's hard to build one. So what you do is construct one randomly, then prove that on average or with high probability, your construction satisfies the requirements. This proves that at least one thing in the stack is hay, or actually that on average or most of the stack is hay.

I'm thinking of graphs, for example expander graphs; error-correcting codes; and probably lots more I'm forgetting. In these cases it then becomes a research program to construct such objects explicitly (which has a lot of history with expanders and codes).
When it comes to ingredients, if synthesis can produce exact same chemical compound, does it really matter if it is natural or synthetic!? At the end of the day, it is a chemical compound.

I presume though that sythesis just can’t produce the exact compound mixture that nature can and hence the demand for natural ingredients.

Really, people have bent over for natural things, often unnecessarily romaticizing about it in cases where we can produce the exact compound. Mother Nature doesn’t give a shit if nature produced it or some highly intelligent beings reverse engineered it.
Ah, so you meant the standard innovations that came out of Midori. I thought you were talking about some new abstraction I hadn't heard of called "outcomes". ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Somewhat aside: it's a bit of a shame the netherlands gets the blame in these tax-dodging stories, because the issue is actually that laws differ between countries (i.e. countries with laws identical to the netherlands aren't vulnerable to the tax dodge), and as it so happens, the netherlands' tax system is... not quite as crappy as that of most other countries. Still crappy, mind you. Just not as bad.

I.e. the appropriate solution would be for (e.g., to pick on a particularly bad tax code) the US and germany to simply dump their tax codes wholesale and copy the Netherlands, rather than the converse. Because seriously, some tax codes are just asking to be abused. Plug this hole, wait for the next one...

The cynical side of me doesn't think it's coincidental that the loopholes are so gaping. Oh well.

Actually, that isn't a PowerShell idea.

Firstly, that form of completion has existed in the Microsoft/IBM operating system world for significantly longer than PowerShell has, tabbing backwards and forwards around a list of matches being the way that one did filename completion with some MS/PC/DR-DOS tools back in the 1980s. Secondly, PowerShell ISE can do things differently, so this cannot be a PowerShell thing.

As pointed out below, you’re just wrong on the antibiotics/growth hormones point. And as to taste, I wonder how much of the difference is your incorrect beliefs about what is in the fish.

My wife is from the Oregon coast, and grew up eating wild salmon. Having visited there, I’ve had it as fresh as you can get it. She outright prefers norwegian salmon, and I like it second best (after king and more than sockeye). It’s legitimately tasty. But then again we don’t subscribe to the hysteria about “natural” food so that’s not affecting our palette.
It can take substantially more time than a 2 week trip to break addictive actions that you have been taking and conditioning yourself to perform over a long period of time.

I’m just providing an alternative perspective. It’s certainly not a mandate. If you know that you’re exceptional, then by all means go be exceptional. But, the vast majority of people aren’t exceptional. And, the truly exceptional are probably out there working their ass off right now, not reading HN.

High expectations = high chances for disappointment. I was exceptional in high school. One day a teacher bluntly told my “gifted” class, “You guys aren’t special. You may feel special right now. But, there are millions of people better than you. Be ready for disappointment.” That advice hurt, and I hated that teacher. But, the truth is that even after being lucky and working hard for 20+ years, the best I got was to be an exceptional person’s captain. And, only through helping that person was I able to retire early. YMMV.
