> this is not in line at all with what we measure daily in our CI

But you setup your CI. This guy’s numbers are a lot closer to what I or another CNI n00b would get trying to set something up.

OTOH if you’re already a CNI expert, you wouldn’t be reading this article.

As someone wondering what CNI to choose I found this article helpful
I'm afraid I've not tried those, I played around only a bit and mostly spent a while trying to get cassandra setup but failed.

Then I hit on https://tech.marksblogg.com/benchmarks.html and saw clickhouse sitting at a very impressive point given the hardware it's on there. It was one of the few data things I saw that looked like it scaled down to a level relevant for me (cassandra I think talks about a dev setup of 5 servers). It's been fast enough with zero tuning or work so far that I've not done that much. I'm sure I could get closer to its speed by carefully setting some things in postgres, or clever work somewhere but I've got other things to do and that's not my speciality.

It has a few issues with ingesting CSV (I end up quoting everything, though I think it's less hassle if you use TSV instead).

Frankly, it's been incredible for my analysis work. apt-get install setup, fast to ingest data, easy to query and output large amounts of things. Happily works on a single box, though apparently scales up as well. More than happy to waffle on about this but I'm aware I've gone on very long already for a "I don't know" answer.
They like to disguise these mailings as bills and personal letters for me as well.
That's really sweet of you :)
I2P provides cover traffic. I believe GNUnet can also be configured to use a certain amount of cover traffic.
From Dev to InfoSec Part 4: Buffer Overflows Made My Brain Hurt
They get better gas milage than any truck or truck based SUV.

Their aero isn't as good as a car but it's better than a truck based SUV.

Fold the seats and you've got a trunk only slightly smaller than a minivan without the 3rd row.

AWD SUVs are readily available and generally the standard. FWD is generally reserved for people who want to go out of their way to be economical about it.

Trailer hitch is solved with $300 and a trip to Uhaul (or for the mechanically inclined: $120, Amazon and a 30% chance of needing a drill). With modern horsepower and brakes you can comfortably tow some stupidly large stuff with crossovers so long as you've got a weight distribution hitch to take some of the weight off the rear axle.

Crossovers do nothing great but they do everything passably well, just like the station wagons of the 1950s-80s they replaced.
That still doesn't guarantee that a consecutive read is gonna get the last state. Welcome to the wonderful world of "eventual consistency".

Evaluating CyberSecurity Products: Stage 2 – Definition of Success Criteria
I would usually agree, but near as I can tell the vast majority of the top-level comments in this thread have a negative score and I find that surprising.
Sorry, that just generates garbage when dealing with things outside the BMP. That can be a lot more common than you think. E.g., when dealing with Chinese characters in a context where unification is not welcomed (e.g., in China).
Most exercise based weight loss isn't about the actual exercise it's about the changes the intense exercise makes to your body that causes you to burn more calories while resting. Exercise often tunes your body to burn calories at a higher rate as you gain muscle and / or increase muscle health which requires more energy to support even while resting. So while you don't NEED exercise to lose weight it certainly is a super important part of weight lose for most people.
Strategic perspective on AWS in the enterprise
I remember a comment a few years ago about Perl6 picking up the Japanese style quotation marks「 and 」for some purpose. Might have been tongue in cheek.
Thanks, I forgot about that one. I usually use http://www.websdr.org/ and I find these sites quite useful to check propagation.
Type 1, maybe. Type 2, not at all. In fact, a ketogenic diet will reduce or eliminate the symptoms of T2.
I usually try to be a bit more constructive than an article summary, but the discussion here was seriously off the rails. Whatever their failings as a company, prefab homes at AirBnB scale could be very interesting, especially since there're ongoing housing crises all over the USA.
World-renowned AI experts duke it out on Twitter
Appreciate the details. I've done some minor JS-based table controls while using <table>, but I wasn't dealing with thousands of rows so didn't need the virtual DOM. Sounds like that's the biggest obstacle. Nice work on the project!
The shamelessness of some people:

> What really twisted me inside was to see her emphasize how her stickers are “made in the USA.” Here’s the irony of the situation: Chinese American immigrant student (that’s me!) from MIT goes to Shenzhen, China to create an educational toolkit. But the output of such work is patented by an American businesswoman from Colorado who promotes the “USA” origin of the work.
That's interesting, thank you for the example.
Both Windows 3.11 and the classic MacOS would be great interface to clone in a Unix window manager or Wayland compositor. Sure they're old but so many of the concepts still hold up and honestly most of us don't need much more than that.
If I followed this advice while actively drinking, I would’ve developed hyponatremia almost every day.

3 years later, the best way I’ve found to prevent a hangover is not drinking ;)
You're very welcome! I am happy to hear it is used to make the World a better place :)
Well I "simply" don't eat the stuff or over eat. O.k so maybe I am some anomaly but I don't think so. Sure some people take a little more incentive and that is why I propose to provide them with some incentive - which would be that if they knew, or saw, that their health care costs are no longer covered if they cause their health issues then a large amount of people would start changing their ways. People need to be made responsible for their decisions; this means they must pay for their actions - if they are not held accountable then they, in general, will not act in a responsible way. Making people responsible will turn the social tide.
I think it's more important that the input produces an immediate and readily observable change to the state of the world, not necessarily that you must have perfect information in the feedback as well that shows the exact utility of your previous action.

For example, in the stock market it's not even clear to me what the total scope of effects is, immediate or not, that any single action I take as a private investor will have on the market. Before I even can start to learn about the effectiveness of the changes that my actions produce, I am hamstrung by an inability to see an immediate, comprehensive effect to each action.
Like Google's Wave (RIP)?
Right. In fact index funds should be better for management since they won't be rocking the boat so much.
I really can see this working, but I don't see how this would be a better workflow for me. Problem one is the learning curve of a Video Editor and Problem two it takes hundreds of hours to get fast with an editor. I switched to Davinci Resolve as my perfected but I have to work on who I am working with. I think I found what works fo rthe last three years.

Currently I use Resilio (Bit Torrent Syn) to grab raw video and audio from some client, all they do is copy the raw files into the folder. I then have that folder shared with whoever I am working with on a second folder which has been logged into my system. I then have a third separate Resilio folder for the client where they receive the proofs and after agreement final product.

Working on a cloud I don't have control on my logging or my end product in one system.
Tundra will soon experience full freedom.
Her identity is important, and gender is one part of her identity. She didn't state her name either in the article, does that make it OK to refer to her as "Richard Stallman" until she explicitly demands credit?
Wouldn't a man-in-the-middle design make more sense? That would still be detectable but it's far from easy to do.

I have to admit I'm not sure how silently Whatsapp and the like could essentially force a 'reset' that would allow the man-in-the-middle attack to take place, but generally it's not too unusual for a protocol to get out of sync and require renegotiation.
I dont think you have quite thought it through. Do you honestly want to have to do code audit on all libraries you use? Freeze all versions? Have a chain of signoffs for every change?

If developers demand that the tools they use are better built, then the market will deliver tools/frameworks/etc... that are secure from the start.

"Good" coding has become "good enough" coding, and the problem exists from the bottom of the stack to the top.
Agreed. Also you can partially dial back the water if you're drinking beer since it's basically a drink unit with 8oz of water tacked on
327M #Marriott Guests Affected in #Starwood #DataBreach
If I search my address, it puts a pin on the map exactly where my address is. I can then look for addresses that are very close to the pin. As far as I know, those locations are pretty accurate.

If you don't include a date in your search, I'm not sure why availability would be an issue. If it's no longer on AirBnB, then I'm not really sure what the problem is.

Can you add and remove listings from the search, while still keeping your ratings?
This is also great for avoiding binge drinking. I did this in college and it's incredibly hard to drink to the kind of excess most college folks do when you're needing to pee ever 15 minutes.

I think I'm used to visiting different sort of places than you do (but I don't mean snob places, most of the ones I frequent are affordable for a working university student).

>2. They don't . . . undress you. You may be thinking of a brothel, not a restaurant. This claim is probably the most bizzare.

I'm not native english speaker. What is bizzare about waiter taking your coat and carrying it to the coatroom, "helping" you off it in the process? It's act of courtesy.
Definitely not superfluous. On HN the coast is clear after about a year: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.
That's excellent news. I wish the MacOS has more open source porting support, like making Wine work on 64-bit MacOS.
Sounds a little like the Sears catalog home thing
Huh, I didn't even know there was an ex command for undo. Neat. I imagine that would be a pretty easy PR to the ex-mode package, if you're up to it ;)
Yep, I agree with a lot of your criticisms, but there are a lot of legitimate reasons to not want to live next to a hotel (or farm animals) that aren't about keeping poor people down.
> No, it was PS3s. Here is an article about it from the time: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2006/12/6406/

It doesn't say they had to sell at a loss, just that they didn't get the ridiculous markup they hoped for.

The PS3 really was in short supply and prices did remain elevated. The article mentions that.

Almost forgot in college I found success drinking a gallon of water before bed after a night of heavy drinking. Forced me to get up twice to urinate but definitely had a 2-3x effect on my pain the next day.
Main issue with syslog (or rather CSVs/TSVs) -- quotes, commas, newlines, backslashes are a bit of a pain when parsing.

Apparently knowing how to use things like grep and awk aren't cool nowadays though. Too many people who grew up on windows. I attempted to install centos earlier, after 18 years of dealing with debian-installer, it amazed me how backwards the installer was. All about the clickity-click.
Not necessarily, have a friend IRL who was accused of damaging a room he stayed in, he didn't, he was threatened to be banned from their site if he did anything like that again and they fined him for it without proof. Uber has a similar problem of drivers scamming riders for "spills".
This was enormous for Apple during the iPhone 3G launch. Nearly every retail purchase was 5 iPhones, the max per customer. It was profitable enough that these were all bought on contract then cancelled, which I think was the only way at the time.
> Only 5 to 7% of people that lose a large amount weight are able to keep it off successfully in the medium and long term. Hope there is more research into this mechanism.

The mechanism = not staying on your "diet" permanently.
All EDA (and more generally, all CAD) software seems weird to use and requires significant time to "get used to it". E.g. Eagle (not really EDA in the grander sense, mostly just a drawing program) doesn't have many regular keyboard shortcuts, instead you type (heavily abbreviated) commands into its main command line. This is quite productive ... after a few weeks.
There's always more glyphs to encode, but I think it will be a long time before we reach hundreds of millions of glyphs, even if we assigned codepoints to every fictional script and every glyph used in dead scripts, and every variation used in medieval and ancient times, and every future new emoticon or glyph for new scripts or fashionable things.

Remember, you need a fairly large number of users for each glyph, otherwise there's no point. We're not going to have per-person glyphs, as no one could understand enough of them for them to be useful. There aren't going to be too many new scripts with users in just the hundreds of thousands, or low single-digits millions. However, if that's wrong, if population gets large enough and regional scripts become a thing... then yeah, we'd run out, but let's hope not -- Unicode is complex enough as it is.
They make different tradeoffs than trucks and truck-like SUVs.
You don't prefer those tradeoffs, but plenty of people do.
I'd like to read about how that goes! This is exactly what I want as well. I hear synapse requires a good amount of resources
Nevertheless, telling people they should eat better and exercise more does not convince them to do these things. The approach you're advocating does not work. What is your alternative? More of the same?
> The Saraswati was not mythical - there is evidence

According to the Wikipedia page, at least, it appears in folklore. It is literally mythical. That word doesn't (only) mean fictitious.
T2 is related to glucose ingestion(sugar, carbs) NOT fat. Glucose spikes your insulin, and the continued, extreme spiking of insulin is what causes T2.
One consideration is that obesity has a snowball effect. I think I remember reading once that the average annual weight gain at midlife is 3 pounds. So over a 5-year period, those who made the attempt may have actually been down 15 pounds, plus the 3kg, from where they might have been if they'd continued on their trajectory.
> python 3 (unless compiled with UTF32 support but the default is UTF16)

Not true since Python 3.3. It now uses latin1/ucs-2/ucs-4 based on string contents (smallest encoding that can represent all codepoints).
I actually started to do something similar to this when Uber was Lobbying the state legislature of Texas[1] to preempt Austin's goals of regulating background checks and fingerprinting drivers, but never really kept up with it.

Oh come on, there's still the undying Common Lisp, and also Emacs Lisp has a lot of relevance, even if indirectly.
Full disclosure, I work for Intel.

We have a fabrication plant in Chengdu, it's public knowledge that this fab is helping to manufacture products built on the latest process technology. As I've come to learn more about China's tactics when dealing with foreign companies it's become of great concern to me what this plant means for our future. I don't think it would be far-fetched to assume that some very protected and valuable IP has leeched through our doors and into China's hands. In all honestly I really can't fathom how the American government let this deal occur.

EDIT: To add more information [which is all public knowledge so if you're reading this Intel folks don't track me down! :)] its a packaging / assembly plant working on CoffeLake, which is 14nm++, CPUs are NOT fabbed there as Congress forbids it. My concern is more about the ability for the Chinese to potentially reverse engineer these products at assembly and derive IP. Also.. our packaging technology is pretty advanced so I'm concerned with even having an assembly plant there as well.

That's not even getting into ways to make an automated system stop by putting up an emergency / stop sign in the middle of the road.

The risk to stealing is directly proportional to the chance of getting caught, which broadly correlates into something unexpected happening, which is drastically diminished by not having a human driver.
Nothing exists in a vacuum just like solely attributing companies adding female directors to a marketing stunt. There was large momentum on this front already that would have happened with or without this.
I'm starting to wonder if it would be a good thing if the data from one of these broad hacks was widely distributed, forcing companies to come up with a better way to verify "identity".

If companies knew that there was a database that everyone has access to with all the data you need to signup for new sources of credit for 50% of US residents, there would be a very strong financial incentive to actually fix the problem.

It's not just the interface, though. Note how "installing" stuff is just dragging files to the right locations.

You could make fully bootable backups of your main drive just by copying everything from the root to a new drive. None of this re-installation rubbish or ownership getting messed up or what have you. It even worked across architectures, a Mac System 7.5 installation will boot on both 68k machines and supported PowerPC systems, just swap the drive over and you're going.
This Is a Dark Day for Press Freedom
Listen, I agree on most counts. I commute 50 miles every day (even when it rains) in LA on a motorcycle and every day I am put in a dangerous position by idiot distracted drivers. Or people jumping into the HOV lanes. It makes me furious. I've talked with my partner and now she never uses her phone will driving, but did before.

I, of course, want distracted driving treated with the same seriousness. It's why every few months I write to my state reps about this issue. It disproportionately affects me as a rider. Ask any motorcycle rider if they know someone injured, maimed, or killed by a car. I've been hit by a distracted driver. Btw, it hurts quite a lot.

It is indeed more dangerous than DUIs, statistically speaking, but a shock and awe playbook will never work. We need to boil the frog, so to speak. DUI activity became something that's shameful, over time. So too, can we employ the same tactics against Distracted driving. Another example would be cigarettes. They went from cool to gross.

This is why I'm in favor of incremental increases in fines and penalties, instead of a big bang approach. We need to reach out to drivers and educate them instead of making them feel persecuted for what they consider to be "harmless behavior".
TLDR anyone?
Tor is often a vector for abuse, so tor node IPs get banned. I'd like to see a way to have nodes block certain origins without being able to identify them.
Beware the corporate video game canon
Tbh that still constitutes a significant ahift in societal norms primarily executed by a single company; if they accomplish just that much, they’ve accomplished quite a bit (ofc, it's also a naturally goes hand-in-hand with things like uber).

In a hundred years, architects/urban planners will easily point to this decade as the age of... something (particularly because with any change in societal values will come changes elsewhere; if this sticks, we’ll inevitably start seeing changes in house design and city planning to support it)

Ask HN: Cross selling software opportuntiy
I have a modestly successful desktop software product, Windows platform. Big names use it. But it is also appropriate for small teams.

I would like to make a deal with you to where you can sell it too, direct from your website. The benefit to you, above simply a cut of the sale, would be providing value to your clients of a vetted and wonderful software experience that compliments your own. Maybe a bundle, etc.

The benefit to me is increased customer awareness of my products and services below the Fortune 1000 threshold. There are, after all, only 1,000 Fortune 1000 companies. Also to hopefully more rapidly increase sales, find new opportunities, etc.

If interested, reach out to me via information in my profile.
Yes we definitely do (not counting virus) because all living things share ~5/10% of their genetic material (like you share 10% of your genes with some bacteria) [1] which is very unlikely if it were purely random.

To be clear I am not arguing about ADHD.

The previous poster expressed skepticism of the DSM-5 as a diagnostic tool.

You responded the DSM 5 was developed with hard science, and that it is sufficient for diagnosis.

I'm saying criticisms of the DSM-5's diagnostic strength is valid and not a fringe position. Part of the reason it is updated periodically is to improve upon its capabilities as a diagnostic tool.

The belief the DSM has weaknesses is not equivalent to climate change denial.
Once you get out of the city, people actually use those trucks. SUVs may work, but how do you think people get all the stuff home they buy at Lowes/Home Depot every weekend? I know people who drive cars, but have an old beater truck for hauling. It's just a different life style.

Personally, I prefer the room and higher ride of SUVs to sedans, but own a truck b/c no SUV is tow rated high enough to trailer my boat.
This is the correct-ish way if you don't plan to actually populate zero-ohm resistors from a BOM.
