Beyond the lake: Intel’s next-generation microarchitecture is Sunny Cove
This is a continuation of our ideas from Kausal, yes! Really glad we joined Grafana as they have given us the time and resources to pursue this.

And not shutdown at all! Everything we did at Kausal is now part of Grafana and Grafana Cloud - David's PromQL-completion UI is in Grafana v6 as the explore view, and Cortex is the backend for Grafana Cloud's hosted Prometheus...
Get in touch with 4am (@a2_4am) and DiskBlitz (@diskblitz) on Twitter — although they're doing it on Apple II disks, there's some pretty sophisticated tooling, and it should theoretically be able to read C64 disks too. 4am also has a lot of experience reading old disks using soap and water :-)

How to Create Your Advisory Board or Board of Directors
I thought it was bad form to advertise your own product on somebody else's Show HN.

I believe what he is getting at is that there is a limit on certain space times that are accessible to a given observer. Imagine an alien race (or a point in space) that is 10M light years away. We want to obtain information about the current state of that point in space. Unfortunately, the next X years of that section of space (I don't know enough relativity to calculate X) is totally inaccessible to us. There is absolutely nothing we can do to obtain information about the current state of that point until X years has passed.

Someone who painstakingly recreates, by hand, an object based on 500 year old woodcuts while learning several new manufacturing techniques in the process matches one of the definitions of hacker.

"6. An expert or enthusiast of any kind. One might be an astronomy hacker, for example."

http://catb.org/jargon/html/H/hacker.html

And the result of this hacker matches the second canonical definition of "hack":

"2. n. An incredibly good, and perhaps very time-consuming, piece of work that produces exactly what is needed."

http://catb.org/jargon/html/H/hack.html

The production of this dress was an appropriate application of ingenuity that resulted in a carefully crafted work of art, which is literally hacking:

"Hacking might be characterized as ‘an appropriate application of ingenuity’. Whether the result is a quick-and-dirty patchwork job or a carefully crafted work of art, you have to admire the cleverness that went into it."

It is interesting (to me at least) because it is something I have not seen before, done skillfully, and is not Yet Another Article About Rust or Containers (YAAARC).

Not to belabor the point, but once you're familiar with the contents of a given ticket (the "{Jira-1234}" reference in my example), the commit message titles' information density goes way, way up. Adding this ~12-character prefix results in useful, scannable, one-line commit messages. I see no downside.

Design talent is more their experience of constant manipulation and testing of what works in certain situations. It's sort of like a UFC fighter and their counters - "if my opponent throws a kick I will check it with my own leg so I don't have the impact of the entire power." Experience is significant here because they wouldn't know what to do in the moment when it matters.

A designer is the same way, say you need a page designed, and they've been through this task so many times they know what works and what doesn't. The lack of knowledge and experience in this area only adds to the time it takes to create & finish something.

And so you're usually not paying a designer to throw a colored rectangle, you're paying them for the years they've invested in testing everything else.

That information can and should be a part of the commit body. An extra commit just for that information is, in my opinion, a hack and a workaround.

I guess we have fundamental differences on how a tree should be structured. It's more of a DAG in your case, but I prefer to keep a tree a tree.
This has been a light reading year, for various reasons of circumstance and laziness, but here are the standouts in my mind:

* Thomas Merton -- The Wisdom of the Desert

A collection of quotes by and about the Desert Fathers of the early Christian church. I especially liked the ones that showed extreme mercy and selflessness, such as the monks who turned in a band of robbers, felt bad about it, and broke them out of prison, or the monk who would not count payments he received, as that might cause someone who cheated him to add lying about it to their sins.

* Alfred Lansing -- Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible Voyage

This is just an exciting adventure log, following Shackleton's expedition as they spent over a year stranded on an Antarctic ice floe.

"The adaptability of the human creature is such that they actually had to remind themselves on occasion of their desperate circumstances." -- Alfred Lansing

* Seneca -- Letters from a Stoic

"I am not, mind you, against your possessing [riches], but I want to ensure that you possess them without tremors; and this you will only achieve in one way, by convincing yourself that you can live a happy life even without them, and by always regarding them as being on the point of vanishing." Letter XVIII

Nearly 40% of Blind (teamblind.com) users are self-reporting depression. This is far from a representative sample of the tech industry. In my experience, people only join a service like Blind if they feel some level of dissatisfaction at work that they can’t bring up to their own leadership. It makes sense that this population is more likely to be depressed, and it is far from representative of the entire industry.
> I always try to explain to my clients that web security is a complex field and they should hire a pro for that area...

No. Just no.

Every other field of engineering includes security and safety as a core requirement of anything they do. Software engineering is no different, and while specialists can help, every engineer needs to know how to write secure code if we are to improve the sad situation the Internet is in.

Sell yourself as a software engineer who knows security, and watch the money rain as literally everyone tries to hire you.

It's inevitable when a private entity has monopoly of infrastructure. The people have no choice but to buy from it, the private entity has minimal incentive to invest in the infrastructure since it has a guaranteed revenue stream. The only thing they have to do is keep the population placated just enough so that enough voters don't get mobilized to make a stink out of it. For utilities, there is no reason why a private entity should have complete control over it. Water, sewer, gas, electricity, and internet infrastructure should be owned by taxpayers.

I want to test this hypothesis so your thoughts would be helpful. We're working on a product which distributes web apps to tens of thousands of SMBs and Newsrooms.

At semantic level, coding is still about creating objects and managing their relationships with the environment. An .ipynb file itself just an object tree. Since Jupyter people made the wise decision of using easy to parse JSON format instead of more efficient binary format, the platform is opened up to a big ecosystem that people can make tools for specific need. Like the document centric desktop application revolution in the 80s that gave us MS Office and Adobe Photoshop, the open, data centric web application revolution we are seeing in this decade will fundamentally change how we consume and produce software. It is a natural evolution of computing system production from hardware panels to punch card, to text code instructions to object graph management in network environments. (The buzzword is “the cloud”.)

A thousand times this. Jupyter notebooks are an antipattern. They encourage bad habits and yield copy-pasted, hacked-together, unmaintainable code. The REPL is a tool for exploration, not for full-blown development.

Loki is design to compliment Prometheus; as such we envisage you using Prometheus metrics to isolate the service and time range exhibiting the anomalous behaviour (by looking at latency and error metrics, for instance) and then "pivot" to Loki to see that logs. As Loki uses the same label metadata as Prometheus, that pivot is automatic and almost "magic" - showing you the relevant logs for a given PromQL query.

Grafana is offering a logging UI for Loki in the upcoming v6 release called Explore; you can enable it on the master builds right now, see https://grafana.com/blog/2018/09/21/grafanas-explore-ui-taki...). It makes is super easy to start exploring and sifting through your logs.

Also, Loki allows you to push regexp matches server side, so you can distribute the "grep" among multiple machines for extra points :-)

Probably more to allay any narrative that Google is being anti-competitive by reserving a domain that could be useful to their competitor.
This is exactly right. It's easy enough to see WHAT happened by looking at the code. Of course you can document the WHY in code also, but that usually ends up in a comment that gets out of date. Whether you're trying to figure out why the shit hit the fan or understanding a new codebase: commit messages that explain reasoning are gold.
Fair enough. Using Jupyter Notebooks for any of the intended purposes you mention above is really out of scope of what Jupyter offers tbh. It's meant to be a Notebook. Run calculations, create visualizations, experiment with code. It's not a software engineering tool so much as it's an analysis tool closer to an advanced excel.

"The Noise of Time" by Julian Barnes

It's an account of the life of Dmitri Shostakovitch during the eras of Stalin and Krushchev. It's fantastic at evoking the sense of suffocation of living under absolute all-seeing power and the terror found in ordinary life. At one point, Shostakovitch is a weekend away from being taken off and "disappeared", only to find on Monday that the same has happened to his interrogator and he is let off.

Highly recommended.

The State of Technology at the End of 2018
This also tripped me up for a long time. The issue (at least for me) is that modern English is poorly suited to extremely nuanced thought. The best modern language we have today for philosophical discourse is possibly German, and of course Greek and Sanskrit excel at expressing nuance and subtlety. An example of this is the observation that it often takes an entire English sentence or paragraph to express the meaning and shades of meaning that are encapsulated in a single Greek or Sanskrit word.

I agree with you, though, it seems like this language issue is a roadblock to many. The same could be said of mathematics and science, and most of my own learning has revolved around breaking through the initial barrier to entry to a given subject that's in the form of its technical language and notation.
Thanks, makes sense. Seems like a great idea, kudos!
Anecdotal thought: I have noticed that I feel angry after eating bread. Sounds goofy, but I realized that it wasn't the caffeine from coffee and it wasn't me "not being a morning person". Recognizing this has helped my relationships a surprising amount.

Serverless means "I don't have to maintain or even know anything about a server", not "there is no server".
I tend to agree. Although it's my opinion there is a significant barrier to entry in the US. Corruption is accessible only to those with wealth or influence. In other countries low level corruption is available to the common man.
I agree that it might not be as bad outside the US, as in the US they have more data to analyze and I'm in the EU, being more interested in news related to the EU.

But if we exclude location as a factor, it's not much of an argument because I have the benefit of constantly using both Google and DuckDuckGo, where DDG is now the primary search engine and Google is the fallback.

If Google personalizes the results in a way as to bias the information based on my political views or whatever, that's not something I have noticed. And believe me, I'd like more ammo when I criticize Google, but this ain't it in my experience.

> By allowing individual municipalities to manage their own Internet infrastructure, we can help keep the Internet from becoming effectively owned by the likes of Comcast, AT&T, and Verizon

I'm nervous about how thoughtlessly we're embracing public ISP ownership. Local governments are notoriously corrupt, in both politics and police. These referenda expand their power without rebalancing any checks or balances. We just happen to have something breathlessly more broken in the monopoly ISPs.

Going forward, it would be nice to see cities re-open their networks to private management. The city would continue to own the infrastructure. But subpoenas, et cetera would be served to the private operator.
>Looks like a good light-weight alternative for setting up a full elasticsearch cluster for some light log insights.

Exactly! Elastic is a really powerful system but I think there is growing sentiment that its overkill for container logs. This is exactly where we see Loki really helping - almost complimenting Elastic even.

:blush: thanks! We'd love you input on Loki too...

> The free cloud demo does look it is getting hammered right now ..

Yeah, looks like I'm going to be scaling that all day... Our motivation for over the free service for the next few months is to really battle harden the system - anyone sending us data is really helping us iron out the kinks and improve the open source. Its early days, but expect it to get much better over the next weeks and months..
