Neo4J is used in production at my company. We have had problems with the clustering architecture known as HA. It was superseded by causal clustering in latest Neo4J releases. We are still requalifying our app with this new system, but we are reasonably confident that it will improve things significantly.
The biggest selling point is that business people have no problem discussing the graph data model with us, data engineers. And their OGM layer is easy to use (but it lacks support for multiple inheritance, at least in its Java version).
Actually, since it's a ratio, the uniform distrubution is in the logarithmic domain, ie over [−log(3),+log(3)], so the probablity (assuming, for no good reason, that it is a uniform distribution), would be:

log 3 − log 2
1 − ───────────── ≈ 0.81546
log 3 − log ⅓

or just over four fifths.

But as others have pointed out, the real answer is the question is broken, since we need a distribution for x, not a interval for x.
Is this a static analysis engine essentially?

Does anyone have good recommendation for static analyzer focused on security specially. Any that really works for java code?

But GoDaddy and CloudFlare showed it’s ok to kick people of a neutral platform, and tech people will applaud it.

If AT&T doesn’t literally point to those two cases to illustrate their right to not host content they don’t agree to, I’d be surprised.

This is why cases like Gab recently are important. Common carriers must be impartial, when they aren’t (even with the best intentions) was hey open up the door for bad actors like this case.
Maybe the answer is to pre-sell a very simple product that you are certain you can build. Any half-decent engineer can build a CRUD app that consumes a spreadsheet and renders some graphs, for example. You can add all the theoretical magic that turns a good product into an amazing one after you build this basic MVP.

SEEKING WORK, Software Developer, Remote (Phoenix, AZ)

I have 15 years experience in software development, and I work in many languages (most currents are node.js, python and ocaml).

I mostly do complex algorithms, weird file conversion, and language parsers.

I have most recently worked on the VHD and VMDK file formats, some real time web transactions and with the Fusion 360 API. In the past I have worked on gcode parsing and generation, toolpath generation, OCR issues, gerber and excellon file parsing and generation, Xenserver, signal acquisition and processing (including the hardware), GIS systems, distributed file systems (gluster), etc.

One of our two political parties is campaigning on a platform to reign in this type of campaign finance influence:

"Democrats would use their first month in the House majority to advance sweeping changes to future campaign and ethics laws, requiring the disclosure of shadowy political donors, outlawing the gerrymandering of congressional districts and restoring key enforcement provisions to the Voting Rights Act, top Democratic leaders said on Tuesday."

This kind of dispute between content providers and content distributors happens all the time.

Comcast - Disney - AT&T - Nextstar - Sinclair, etc... It's an everlasting dance that's been doing on for decades.

The only reason this is interesting to the HN community is because it's happening to Sling. But if Sling wants to play on the level of Scripps, Gannet, etc... it has to play by those rules, and expect these sorts of things to happen.

I'm not saying AT&T is right here. But I witnessed at least a dozen of these temporary content blackouts in my previous life in broadcasting. Just because your TV company doesn't have towers doesn't mean you get a free pass.

Yeah, I always thought the API scenario was the original use case for JWT anyway and believe that it does makes more sense. I think API token expiry is a requirement too, but not as pressing or frequent as on the user-side.

With the advent of SPAs and RESTful designs, it was probably tempting to say, "hey, let's allow our user-facing client apps to hit the API directly and use the same JWT token scheme for auth there". So, whereas it was generally a good scheme for APIs, it became a YMMV thing once it diverged into the client.

It's because MS-DOS and to a lesser extent Windows 3 was so bad at isolating you from the hardware that all the hardware had to be identical. If MS-DOS had been more like, say, CP/M then we would have had loads of weird machines from different manufacturers isolated from the software by proprietary BIOS[1] blobs. This would have made it harder to provide a useful Linux that worked across multiple machines.

[1] I mean "BIOS" in the CP/M sense of a layer that completely abstracted the hardware to the BDOS.

Is "conscientious objector" a formally defined status? i.e. "you are a conscientious objector iff you object to being drafted for the US military", or is it a analogous to "this person will publicly speak out and/or rebel against horrors?"

Because I had the feeling while watching Alan's talk that he wasn't talking about military drafts -- which is exclusively male anyway and he's talking about people, not men -- but rather, that he was talking about people the more informal second definition

Or stated differently; people who remained passive during wars, even if they were actually against the mass murders and large scale horrors.

Then again, if it's the second definition, where in the world did he get those statistics from, how would you even reliably determine who has or hasn't publicly stated their position, ... I mean, there's no reliable written historical record of this position, is there?

I'd like to clarify and point out I used the word "choose" very much so on purpose. There are a number of things that would effectively remove this choice from me. If tomorrow I was laid off and I couldn't find anything within a a couple of weeks I'd work at McDonalds to get by but for as long as I have the choice I'm not interested in locked down computers or locked down internet where I work. If I were in your position I'd have to weigh the pros and cons before deciding to look for a new job. You obviously decided the pros outweighed the cons and I don't hold it against you or anyone else.

> I invited him for a conversation

Why was this contact made? What's his connection to your team, ie. how important is his input to your team?

> I spoke with some people in the company I already felt like I could trust

Possible scenario: Chances are that these coworkers are also close to 'that' manager, and talked about it to other coworkers, which eventually resulting into 'that' manager heard that you talked about him. -> Source of hate?

I, myself, would do one of the following options

1. Make your sprint/monthly goals clear to the CEO and at the end deliver

2. Start looking for other opportunities. Since you were well liked in your previous positions, it may be easier to get references.

Hidden option: Look really hard at yourself. Are there unconscious behaviours of you that may cause dislike?
Try to apologize to 'that' manager for tiny and unnoteworthy mistakes, he just sounds like a ... who needs more love.
Translation for those unfamiliar: they used machine learning. And while SVM is not "advanced enough" compared to "deep learning"[0], it's a very powerfull classificator/estimator on its own.

To OP: maybe today with a huge GPU, lots of data and more complex models you could get something going. Do you think a more advanced model could really pull this through? Maybe using other features -- perhaps coupling with a thermal camera can help detect changes in temperature that could signal the person is lying.

You could say the same for salt. It's fundamental to our survival, yet I tend to consume it mixed with other food, rather than on its own. I haven't seen anyone but farm animals use a salt lick. It's fine to consume water mixed with things.

Some of the people quoted do have serious problems, but I think that person was just contrasting choosing pure water and flavoured water when the choice is available. Either choice is almost entirely water, so there's little difference from the survival perspective.

It's hard to say if that person has a problem or not. All we really have to go on is their own interpretation of their urine color.

I'm currently doing the opposite of every 'rule' and loving it.

Building what I want, because I want it to exist. Showing it to nobody else to test or get feedback on; no focus groups, no beta testing, no external input. Solo founder effort. Not taking VC; not under any circumstances or terms. Not selling or promoting anything before it launches. It's commercially minimalist by design and ethos, ideally it takes in the least amount of money necessary to fund its own expansion. There's no exit, hopefully it lasts perpetually; I aim to at least guarantee and pursue its operation for the next decade (it'll take that long to really build it out). It's thin on both the front and back ends, inexpensive to run and scale. Something like it doesn't currently exist and it will benefit humanity very modestly if I get it up to scale.

It's the first time in the last 20 years I've built something very large in scope that wasn't about making money in any manner. Something that is more important than my own ambitions in life. Going to launch it with a Show HN in the next two months or so. Hopefully it works out, either way it was a lot of fun to build (it will have likely taken seven or eight months of work from conception to kicking it out the door).

What if a bug in Chrome (layout rendering, dom, ..) breaks your application? It's a corner case, possibly it will never happen. But this solution makes impossible for you to roll out a patch by just changing Chrome version bundled.

User will notice a bug in your application and maybe none of his frequently visited web-apps/web-sites exhibits the same bug, so you won't have the user engaged to update (or downgrade!) his Chrome version.

All in all you're breaking one thumb rule which is to use fixed versions of dependencies for your products, so to be sure they always work as intended. As a side note, how is one going to test a GUI build this way? Should it be tested against all Chrome versions that may be possibly installed at least at one customers premises?

akavel said it best, you have to pick your battles. Who are we to tell the D programmers that this small issue affecting a tiny percentage of their users is a higher priority than any feature/bug/etc they have in their backlog?

All of this stinks of entitlement to me. "I want you to fix my problem cause by my software that only affects a small group of people".
Exactly! Go outside, take a walk, find a lover.
To give you a sense of how far Plan9 took the idea... To open a tcp connection, you create a special “control file” at `/net/tcp/ctl` or some similar path, then write newline-terminated text commands to the file descriptor. That descriptor now represents your socket. You can also browse its contents as a directory (in plan9 each node in the filesystem can be both a regular file and a parent directory).
None of these problems seem unique to selling a product that isn't complete. You're right that selling is hard, but it's done every day in a repeatable way by tons of sales professionals.
