Configuration changes depend on the developers. For example, I used to use Evolution on Linux / Gnome as my email client. Their attitude to compatibility is terrible. As in, they just don't care at all.

If you allowed it to upgrade your Evolution data store there was no going back.

In a BeOS case it would be as if it migrated to different configuration keys in the new version, then the old version would detect corruption, throw a fit and erase ALL the keys.
Could publishers index their own content and expose that through a common querying API that anybody could plug into ?

So Google could still deliver ranking and publishers put their content behind their walls.
This article fails to bring up a couple of points I thought might be useful, particularly when talking about C++ and Java. In particular:

* Talking about the C++ type system without mentioning templates is selling the language short.

* Both Java and C++ have some form of type deduction in newer versions of the language.

* Both Java and C++ have for loops that work on collections.
Oh here comes my YouTube anxiety. They should really have this guilty pleasure button that doesn't count as your historical interests.

My new year's resolution for 2019: stack lots of stones everywhere I go. At all times.
Those things you mentioned are just how Cassandra works. It's a wide-column key/value store and everything is an upsert because that's how the write path is designed, there is no read-then-write (other than LWTs). If you're using an application that expects Cassandra then this is normal so why would Yugabyte change the semantics?

It's true that indexing is unfinished but they've also long been problematic in the CQL data model so Yugabyte is moving faster and actually releasing something for those who can work with it. Cassandra took years to come up with several types of indexes that all have problems and Scylla is overdue by 18 months on their implementation.
No, that's a very bad model. Humans have a hidden utility function and they maximize that. (See also bounded rationality, weak revealed preference axiom for market modeling.)
Also, the main driver for the insurgency is that the "peaceful and harmonious" Kingdom of Siam (now Thailand) conquered what was then the Sultanate of Pattani in 1785 and have been trying to forcibly assimilate it ever since.
Ironically, I kind of experienced this in reverse. I grew up in a very isolated place, and many of my first close friends were from the internet. Someone I knew from IRC, whose name I don't know to this day, gave me my first computer monitor. I lived with another person I met on IRC for a while, rent free.

As a young person, I was able to count on online friends to give me a place to crash or a meal when I was hungry. As an adult, I'm not really sure that I could ask these things of my "real" friends.
Oh, there's a lot of thought there. Back then, people didn't bother thinking about the interface at all, and just pushed the lib provided widgets on the same place they were everywhere (there were plenty of bad metaphors that became prevalent, there were many stuff that research showed that it shouldn't be done, but everybody did anyway).

Today people are always optimizing (for the showroom), always redesigning. That's part of the problem, not of the solution.
Can you imagine people use vi because they like the way it works? I do. The fact that it is available everywhere is a nice bonus.
With so many real problems in National Parks (including the ASTOUNDING number of mysterious disappearances of park visitors) I find this article a generic case of pearl-clutching stupidity. Humans have been stacking stones atop one another since at least 12,000 BC as in Gobekli Tepe in Turkey. We stack stones for our shelters, our fireplaces, and our workplaces. We stack stones for monuments. So now we are stacking stones for sheer aesthetic beauty. Good. Stack away with the knowledge that you are continuing a human tradition that has been going on for millennia.

There isn't anything inherently different about a WebAssembly-based software sandbox from previous software sandboxes like the ones you mentioned. It maintains a reasonable level of protection for additional benefits. If those benefits aren't worth it for your use case then you don't need to take the additional potential risk. We don't live in a computing monoculture, what's risky for you may not be risky for me, and what's valuable to you may not be valuable to me.

It's worth noting that the code that will be run under Wasmjit will in general be more trusted than code you run in a browser while browsing the Web. For those who only run trusted code on their servers, Wasmjit incurs no additional risk and provides potentially significant benefit.
That's why people stake claims, and the more money they put up, the more they bet on what they claim, the more you can be sure that it's not just a troll, not a hoax, not someone trying to move the market, not someone bought and paid for (so not a Sybil attack).

Admittedly the only film that comes to my mind imediately is LA Confidential, but that film stars loose fitting pants.

Which period films with tight fitting pants are you thinking of?
Absolutely. I think the parent poster is massively overgeneralizing that CloudWatch is only good for "hobbyist users". Nearly every product I've worked on that's utilized AWS has sent to CloudWatch, because unless they have special needs CloudWatch doesn't meet then you might as well use it because nearly every AWS product and docs are already sending their logs there by default and it's one less infrastructure company to keep track of.
A third party company selling products to be sold in supermarkets is basically selling to the supermarket, not to the consumers (if the supermarket stocks their product and it doesn't sell, the supermarket won't keep putting it on the shelf). On Amazon, companies are selling to consumers and Amazon facilitates that process. If Amazon makes it harder for sellers of particular products that Amazon also sells, they can effectively force those sellers out of business. That being said, I'd be kind of surprised if Amazon really needed to sell at a loss for products Amazon is selling directly since Amazon has a massive advantage in scale.

I recently acquired an old iMac running OS 9. I'd like to play around with interesting old software, but half my attempts to download things off e.g. Macintosh Garden have resulted in a file on my desktop the system can't seem to use. Are there any good guides for what to do and how to do it on a classic Mac? I've got Myst installed but that's been the extent of it.

CRDB is only has one node type which are all symmetrical, deployed as a single binary. It doesn't get simpler than that.

Most other databases insist on multiple layers and dependencies which only shifts more work onto developers who have to install and maintain it.
He's still experimenting with different approaches, trying to find the optimal flow like any startup would. His approach as of late has been to collaborate more with other channels, like he did on the Feynman video and the interative quaternion page you referenced above.
Not true, they clearly do care about quality.

It works because if you are already using a bunch of AWS services, and then you need something that they are providing, you will give that a go first. If it doesn't provide enough, you will move to something else.

That's why I referred to the behaviour as Cassandraisms.

The question was posed in the context of CockroachDB, so my answer stands -- CDB vs. YugaByte is an apples to oranges comparison, seeing as YugaByte isn't an RDBMS by any useful measure, and has a very long way to go to get there.

Iceland has a population of 300k and brought in more than 2m visitors last year. 10% of its GDP and 30% of export revenue. The vast majority of tourists in Iceland are very respectful, but Iceland's hasty decision to bootstrap its economy after 2008 with tourism despite a lack of infrastructure has its costs. The way I see it, Iceland is lucky to have attracted so many higher quality guests.
Sadly that's almost certainly true.

> A third party company selling products to be sold in supermarkets is basically selling to the supermarket, not to the consumers (if the supermarket stocks their product and it doesn't sell, the supermarket won't keep putting it on the shelf).

Do supermarket supplier contracts really work like this? I was under the impression that nowadays suppliers have to pay supermarkets for shelf space, take the risk themselves for low sales volumes (with agreements to buy back inventory), etc.
Very well done, as always. As someone who is probably below the intended audience level my one complaint is that it wasn't clear to me why the fact that the square on the sphere has the same area as its projection on the cylinder implies that the total of all these areas is the same, i.e. why do we know the projections don't overlap, when each is cast from a light at a different height on the pole, as it were?
Instagram makes me happy: my feed is full of cats, guns, food, and travel pictures from people I know (and from a couple of famous pro shooters, famous Japanese cats, a pro cat photographer, Beth Stern who does cat rescue, and a couple of vendors I use.) I post mostly travel, food, cat, and gun/range photos, sometimes datacenters/tech and weird architecture and conference photos. I can easily curate exactly what I want. I don't feel obligated to follow anyone because of social obligations, and I don't make any effort to post certain kinds of photos (other than generally trying for technical quality and "interesting").

For me, practicing pick up was an amazing way to find friends and develop new relationships. After watching a bunch of RSD videos I started regularly going out to clubs and approaching girls. As a nerdy and socially awkward guy I didn't end up being a very successful "pick up artist" in terms of getting laid a lot, but I've met some amazing women who ended up introducing me to their friend groups, and that helped me to meet a lot of really cool people and find friends.

Besides, RSD community itself has local meetup groups, so you can find wingman buddies to go out with, and I've met a few great guy friends that way, I know pick up community gets a horrible reputation in modern culture, but the people I met were really smart, cool, and were, like me, into personal development and practicing social skills.

If you can look past the stigma, pick up is an amazing way to meet new people proactively, it's challenging (approaching new people is scary), but fun, free, can be done at any time, and the results depend on how much you practice. I highly recommend it.

Also, I have found a local Go club, and found many awesome people there. It's a fun relaxing game, community is friendly, and it's natural to have conversations and form friendships there.

If you create a program that links with a GPL library, the program as a whole must itself also be GPL - which is not always acceptable. See section 5 of the GPL: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html

maybe a good compromise would be to base frontpage content on regional broadcast standards as that seems to be a pretty reliable measure for what is considered acceptable and then simply relegate the other content within it's own 'after dark' category, available to registered users. this is essentially how we handled things back in the era of video stores and it still seems applicable imo; keep the content, just bring back the curtain.

This is a problem with how employment works, more than anything.

I've always "hung out" with colleagues after work hours. Because we're all in the same boat, and have more in common with each-other than anyone else, because we spend 40+ hours a week in the same room.

It's a failure of HR and management, imo, when that doesn't happen. And it can be increasingly hard to fix.
Every actual system compromise began as a previously “theoretical” attack. _Wired_’s article isn’t overly alarmist given the install-base of devices with ECC. With a possible attack-surface this large I’d rather someone cry-wolf than for those in the tech industry be caught flat footed.

I’d argue IRC was very different from today’s social media. If you wanted to build a friendship, you’d normally spend hours and days chatting with individuals before you’d consider them a friend of any sort.

With social media it’s reversed. You first friend someone and then maybe possibly build a relationship. All the activities you do in common with the vast majority of ‘friends’ is as mindless as possible (liking something or commenting but the comment rarely has any bearing on the actual individual whose post you’re commenting on).
Just to be clear, this would mean a PG extension that works with the new PG pluggable storage to use Yugabyte as the backing store? Does that mean still running a separate Yugabyte cluster or is everything self-contained in the extension?
Thank you for sharing where you are at and your struggles. I am having a similar issue going from a one person shop to hiring people. Mainly because I too realize that people are buying me because of my skill set and communication.

Multiple data models.
It's definitely an oversimplification on my part. Looks like it's a bit of both methods depending on scale and the particular product market. The suppliers compete with each other for shelf space via payments, and the supermarket sells the product at very close to cost (or at cost during sales), to the point where shelf space related payments are basically equal to profit for the market.

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-29629742

Relating back to the initial part of the question, it seems like if suppliers are fighting over the "good spots" (the ends of the aisle or section), then the supermarket's branded products can safely fill in the gaps at lower prices (but much better margins), and still be profitable as long as they don't lose too much to waste.

The correlation is clear, and probably meaningful. The causal are are complicated.

Diversity is in large part about the rich white class of Americans shifting blame for the 2008 financial crisis to all white Americans, thus diluting the blame significantly as it was spread over 40% of the population instead of 1%. This neutered any significant political change that might have resulted.

Also, the diversity they talk about still results in people all coming from New York, LA, Philadelphia, etc. It’s the urban rich along with a select few of the urban poor, and they all went to school together anyway, thus rendering moot any benefit diversity would have provided.

I commute between New York and the Bay Area. It is so hard to strike up a meaningful conversation with a stranger out west.

And it’s not just New York. In most big cities, I can reliably find an acquaintance after a few hours at a restaurant, bar or museum. But the Bay Area is so reticent. The closest comparison to it I can think of is the Middle East.

Yes exactly. If you look at the code, it basically is just using pure virtual provider classes to allow JNI on android and OBJC++ on iOS to provide the native system UI components. Its pretty elegant actually.

The only problem becomes that it is a lot of code to manually maintain or bootstrap. And possibly a decent amount of effort to add new platform widgets, but I didn't look very deeply into how exactly that would be done.
Plenty of epigenetic changes though. It's all about the multi-omics these days.
