Infrastructure as Code, Part Two: A Closer Look at Terraform
I once worked with a guy who built an app with everything done server side in web forms, including a datetime picker. It stands out in my memory as one of the worst pieces of software I've ever seen produced.
Apart from being an integrated, polished distro that brings together all the latest development tools. And being the basis of RHEL, CentOS etc. And the distro used by tons of Linux developers. Yeah it's done nothing at all.
> When I see stuff around notebooks for "reproducibility", I'm a bit confused in that notebooks often don't specify any guidance on installation and dependencies, let alone things like arguments and options that a regular old script would.

At the core of this, as some others may have already alluded to already, is that many academic scientists have not been socialized to make a distinction between development and production environments. Jupyter notebooks are clearly beneficial for sandboxing and trying out analyses creatively (with many wrong turns) before running "production" analyses, which ideally should be the ones that are reproducible. For many scientific papers, the analysis stops at "I was messing around in SPSS and MATLAB at 3 AM and got this result" without much consideration for reformulating what the researcher did and rewriting code/scripts so that they can be re-run consistently.
What Happened to the Arial Unicode MS Font?
When I talk about stopping coffee to friends they advice my to switch to tea. But the strange thing is that, in the morning, I don't feel like drinking a hot beverage. Just a freshly pressed orange while reading the news on my iPhone and I'm good to go!
The two most appealing features of the LuaJIT FFI:

1) The syntax. To specify the types of the FFI functions you you use a DSL that is similar to C declarations. Often you can copy paste function prototypes from ".h" files with very minimal modifications. With ctypes you need to specify the types with Python function calls. See "ffi.cdef": https://luajit.org/ext_ffi.html

2) Performance. If your code is inside a JIT-compiled trace, LuaJIT FFI calls have minimal overhead. They compile down to something very similar to what a C compiler would generate. Ctypes, on the other hand, must "interpret" the FFI calls which adds more runtime overhead (although admittedly this is also true for LuaJIT if your code ends up outside a compiled trace).
I’m enjoying plenty of gaming on my Apple TV, so unless we are talking hardcore AAA titles, there is plenty to keep yourself entertained.

It is a far less frustrating game console to use than PS/XBox. It’s actually really nice.

I bought a controller for $50 to play Minecraft. It’s not bundled (that’s a good thing).
The best resource for that would probably be Backblaze's quarterly hard drive stats.

Here are the ones for Q3 2018: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/2018-hard-drive-failure-rates...

Scroll down a bit and you'll see the annualized failure rates (AFR). The 10TB and 12TB ones seem to be pretty excellent.
Nope. I've explicitly added a firm NCoC to a big project, and no CoC trolling so far. Just the usual culture war thingies, but this is expected when there is no technical criticism on the project.

I like RMS' CoC but I would never use it in any of my projects. users should not fear to be censored at all. users should be treated as adults. devs whining about being attacked is not adult behavior.
Can somebody explain to me why we need both kilogram and mole (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_(unit))? One can be defined in terms of the other.
I think the biggest thing for me personally is that I like VScode a lot more than Atom. Also, I'm going to be focussing more on better debugging, which AFAIK, is not heavily emphasized in hydrogen.
You can't say "you are completely wrong" and then support that by showing I am right. You showed 5 crops that produce more protein per acre than an absurdly low fake figure for beef. That's precisely what I said, that we would have to cut down to just a small handful of highest value crops. 5 is a small handful, we currently grow thousands. You know full well lettuce produces fewer calories and less protein per acre than beef. But you are not demanding that we stop growing lettuce, just beef. Your demands are inconsistent with the premise you use to support them.
I believe he said expressly that they're higher-power desktop CPUS (reference that the older model used mobile ones).
How can we pretend to fix something wrong in our behavior if most people won't even consider something as easy as going vegetarian most of the days. Even something like that would have a huge impact.

I wrote the original xterm patch for this mode, to help the mouse mode of Joe's Own Editor. There were related additional features that didn't catch on:

A mode where you could read or set the selection data with base64 quoted strings. This gives the application full control over its interaction with X's cut & paste buffers. For example, if you Shift-select some text, the application can tell X about it so that other applications can paste. I think there is still an xterm configure option for this one.

The ability for the mouse to send motion events (when a mouse button is pressed) to the application even if it has gone beyond the terminal emulator's window border. It needs to be able to report negative coordinates when you are above or to the left of the window. This is needed to allow you to select text where the scrolling speed is controlled by how far beyond the border the mouse has moved. I still think this is needed, but patch not taken.

Incidentally, JOE has a hack for terminal emulators that don't have bracketed paste. If a new input character is immediately available after the previous character, then assume we have pasted text instead of typed. This works surprisingly well since the communication links tends to keep contiguous writes together in a single buffer.

Apple Announces AMD Vega Graphics Options for MacBook Pro
In a word, no. It would be crazy for IBM to put at risk Red Hat's proven and highly profitable development model, and that all starts with Fedora.
Well, I guess it's a little crazy if all you were expecting was 8-bit graphics. But for content like that, yeah, I'm amazed it fits in 14MB.
If only Apple could make their Pro line without Touch Bar but with Pro specs, that'd be nice
Im comfortable plugging a USB keyboard into it and SSHing into a remote machine to do dev work.

I have a MacBook Pro as well now, so I hardly ever use the iPad Pro for that sort of thing anymore but it was a pretty good experience.

It’s also an excellent music creation device. I originally bought it so I could use apps like Korg Module and Gadget and it’s great for that purpose.

It’s also my favorite device for reading kindle textbooks.
The hard part is that introducing a tool like git (which requires you to choose moments to take a snapshot of the file, and then add some commit message) breaks the flow of interactive experimentation that notebooks are so good for. And then we need to find a way to make those commits useful, because the time ordering of commits could be different from the time order in which cells were run! That is what is crucial to making computations reproducible — viewers should be able to replay the history of how a notebook result came to be. (EDIT: Note that this is the case only for stateful computations -- if a notebook interface was used to construct a dataflow graph (like spreadsheets) with values updating live, then this wouldn't be so much of a problem. More fundamentally, it is not at all obvious that thinking of notebook contents as akin to code is the best way to use version control)

I wonder whether there is a solution along the lines of auto-committing each cell before it’s executed and the results just after the cell is executed. Otherwise a user has to do too much manual organizing, which is a problem the notebook should ideally solve. When a user is happy with the experiments and the provenance of their results, they should be able to use an interactive rebase to create a cleaner version to share/archive.
Sure. They still have an edge band (or a back that comes around to act as an edge band). There are no phones with screens that simply stop in a raw cut edge.
Are there any merge tools that offer features for this a lot more sophisticated than basic text comparison?
>for fear of blowing past their tolerances accidentally

this is not how USB-C works. you might end up with a cable that doesn't support high voltage, but it simply won't upgrade to a higher voltage and your device will charge slower or not at all.

I agree that it's frustrating that all USB-C cables aren't interchangeable, but to imply they're potentially unsafe is wrong. There was a bunch of out-of-spec cables on the market shortly after USB-C came into use with the nexus phones and the macbook pro, but that problem has almost entirely been solved, and is still a much smaller problem than cheap aftermarket USB-A charging bricks sold by the same sketchy vendors.
Wishing the iPad mini form factor would get some love, or at least a version that works with the Pencil
I remember when Firefox 2.0 came out, it was 6 MB.

Way more impressive, though, was Opera 9 at 5 MB, which, unlike Firefox, also had a built-in email client, IRC client, download manager, BitTorrent client, ad blocker, debugger (Firebug was an extension at the time), sync, and several other impressive features.
I like my mouse too much for this to be possible.

Selecting/moving text with a finger is more annoying.
> What was the earliest of these tools? Mathcad? Mathematica? Maple?

The first version of MathCad (for DOS) came in 1986, but it's difficult to find info on how it looked like. Did it already have the notebook interface? This is how MathCad looked in 1989:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Mathcad_252_screenshot.pn...

Mathematica 1.0 came in 1988, and it definitely had the notebook-interface.

Wikipedia says Maple got its first graphical interface in 1989.
Excellent. All recent big disks over 8 TB from all vendors have excellent reliability. HGST/WD Helium drives are particularly good; I configured and installed many hundreds from 6 to 12 TB in the past 4 years, and not a single one failed yet.

When Lua was originally created its primary audience were engineers used to FORTRAN's 1-based indexing.
I don't think there's a production application out there not using an entire toolchain for their client side code. I'm not saying it's _too_ hard for people to be cross functional. I'm saying it's hard enough that companies often times make an artificial separation.

I don't agree with the microservice comparison because the separation of view/data layers could more easily exist with a back-end rendered application. It only exists more readily with front-end rendering because the complexity is so much higher that you find specialists in that field who can only work with that stack. The separation is purely artificial and driven by increased complexity.
Very good point - that makes more sense as to why they would do this. Nonetheless frustrating IMO for anyone who uses the whole line of devices together.
Yeah, perhaps rather than privation, a better middle ground would that laid out by the epicurean philosophy.

I don't know about that; one of Apple's hallmarks is that they aren't afraid to compete with their own products. Some companies would have said "We can't make the tablet into a powerful computer, it would cut into notebook sales.

Especially with the USB-C change, these iPads are a serious competitor to Apple's laptops for pretty much anyone except developers. In a lot of ways they're better. Just not for programming because the software is still too sandboxed.

Here's hoping that Xcode shows up.

USB-A had these problems back in 1998. It's early days for USB-C, but I think a few more hardware iterations and hopefully things will start settling down.

Right now USB-C controllers are too complex and expensive to fit in low-end devices (think $49 TV dongles).
MacBook Pro Getting AMD Radeon Vega Graphics in November
The US should ban all advertisement to children.
ok let me rephrase 'spiritual mumbojumbo'!
I'm not saying people need to wear safron robes and chant kumbaaya. moreso that th ehuman body is the most advanced chemical factory / technology on the planet, we need people to read the user manual and get a sense of all-inclusive life that is not human centric, that we are all together on this planet. People who are making the business case for anything won't make the right case unless they have the proper fundamental system put in place in their body,mind,spirit. An example of a place to start (Think a child learning the difference between big 'A' and little 'a' in the alphabet.. not even spelling words yet) is having everyone on the planet think "I am going to die, I came from the earth, and will return to the earth" and become ultra-sensitive to their impermanence.
I find this odd because I am the opposite - one of my primary use cases for Jupyter/ipython in general is the ease with which I can get 'live' code introspection and intellisense. It's often my prototyping sandbox for python code that I then move into my IDE once it's close to being ready.

I also notice that developing in this way encourages me to create smaller, more testable functions that i can easily work with inside a single notebook cell.
But browser changes for other reasons may break what previously worked in a CRUD app. And we don't need gazillion widget types for most CRUD. Oracle Forms has a limited widget set, yet has been used to build a good many apps here at our shop quick and easy. It's not esthetic, but got the job done. (It has a few clunky spots, but everything does.)

I'm not an Oracle Forms dev myself; I just observed productivity. Oracle should have left the "gui browser" (client engine) as a dedicated product (compiled EXE) instead of convert it into Java, because Java had too many security bugs because it tried to be too much. The concept of Java Applets failed, not Oracle Forms itself.
iOS has had a dock since iOS 11.
The counter-point to this is that since Backblaze uses consumer drives, they probably won't ever test these new drives, because they are enterprise.
Agreed. I’ve gotten somewhat used to it now, but I preferred the old gestures from iOS 11 on the iPad over the new iPhone X style gestures in iOS 12.
I'd assume it is to have a enormous front end library to handle all your complicated components and the author would be horrified by the prospect of every component written with a different front end library. It does present an issue if you literally have a single component that needs it, but I think this advice was aimed at cases where there are many such complicated components.
Survey Results: What the Job Seekers Think of Applicant Tracking Software?
Same here. Especially with the new hardware from this year. Apple puts a ton of engineering into these new iOS devices, a little sad that the Mac lines don't really get the same treatment.

I feel we are insanely close to this reality though. We have large enough displays now (even on the small one), external display support, external keyboard support and USB-C so we can actually plug in an iPhone into the iPad itself (Though this could have been skirted with the advent of wireless debugging support in Xcode. I'd still rather have the wire though.) Only thing I really want is some kind of trackpad or trackpad replacement. Or even just mouse support and I'll drop one in my bag.
I mean, Apple always charges Apple prices. I'm more surprised that the base price is so high. They couldn't do a 4gb/64gb version with a lower-end CPU?
Then they need to start shipping iPhones with Lightning to USB-C cables and swap out the port on the wall chargers. There needs to be some bridge between the two categories of devices that they currently are not providing.

This should come in the box with every iPhone: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MQGJ2AM/A/usb-c-to-lightn...
I so dearly wish that someone high-ranking at Apple reads this and takes it to their heart. And acts upon it.

There aren't NUCs that compare. You can't buy a NUC with an i7 6 core, one with 64GB of memory, or one with 10GBit.
Thanks. I'm inclined to believe you on this as it seems reasonable, although I have to say that a blogpost is not the most trustworthy source of information :)
Am I going crazy? Didn't they support mice pointers when the iPad originally launched?
Tourism dollars do a lot less for the local economy than one might expect. Tourist destinations like the Caribbean and Bali have some of the worst income disparity in the world. Tourism provides utility to the tourists, but nothing in return for the locals. Doctors and electricians get paid more to serve tourists than their home communities. Worst of all is that a lot of children are incentivized to sell things to tourists than to finish school.

i'm sympathetic to (and in the same boat) as the developers that are considering "licenses" like this one. but i agree with the author that the language being used is fraudulent and the terms are one-sided (hence the quotes). i've made an attempt at coming up with a license that better bridges the gap between open and closed. my goals were:

* pay to use the software
* assure developers that they can also monetize their work
* assure users that prices won't change unpredictably

I've been waiting for a 2018 Mac desktop of some kind. I have a stock (as in, bought off the shelf, no cpu/memory upgrades) 2018 MBP15 that works for now (as my 2011 had another fan failure, its repaired but not reliable enough for work) but I'm getting tired of small screens/fewer cores etc.

I thought it was going to be an iMac, but maybe this is the ticket.

If I can just find a decent monitor to pair with it here (Thailand) it might be a good option.
You should look into Korg Gadget, it’s my favorite music creation app for the iPad.
>Given that 15 minutes later, in the iPad part of the event, they claimed the new iPad is faster than 92% of all notebooks sold in the last year, the writing is on the wall. For me, the next Macbook to be excited about, would be one with an ARM processor.

what is arm exactly?

and what makes u think its better than whats being offered currently and that it will be in a macbook soon?
> Those other places, not so much

Are you arguing those other, less known places are not beautiful? I can't agree with that.

There are perfectly valid reasons why Florence and Venice are tourist bottlenecks: they are well known because they are historically important cities, featured in famous works of arts -- paintings, literature, etc -- all over the world. So of course I want to see Venice and cities like it: they have well deserved fame. But they are not the only or even the most beautiful cities, they are just the most well known (again, for valid reasons).

The same reasoning can be applied to many "tourist bottlenecks": of course it's reasonable to want to see the Mona Lisa or visit the Eiffel Tower: they are world famous! You learned about them in school! But are they the best or the most beautiful? Nope.

(For the record: I thought Venice was ugly. YMMV)

Most port 80 TCP traffic can't be done straight from the browser. E.g. it won't let you write arbitrary headers.

Cross-domain requests won't work for the majority of sites.

And non-HTTP requests can't be done at all from the browser, it would be a pretty limited "network interface" if all it could do was call out to XMLHTTPRequest.
Again, the demo was performing some very impressive operations on the images in real time, not just making sure the UI was responsive.
I would expect such a strong assertion to come with well laid out and persuasive reasoning. Maybe spoil me with relevant data (even second hand). Instead, you reject both premise and conclusion by some extremely weak heuristic, that has trouble even approximating reality in the first order.
