Let me be clear: I do not see it as an inherently bad thing if Nazis have to put in more effort than other people to find or build a platform on which they can spew their thoughts. I do not see it as the first step on a slippery slope to a "sanitized, P.C.-friendly" world. I do not accept the dilemma you pose, in which either we must allow Nazis to run around threatening mass murder or else nobody can say anything.

I think a world without Nazis in it would be a better world than the one we have, and I think the fact that several countries already have laws in place to restrict the speech of Nazis, and they haven't led to your dystopian outcome, is a strong empirical counterargument to what you suggest.

A simpler way to put this is just "anyone who does not agree with me should go to a reeducation camp, or to jail, or maybe die."

You accidentally mixed up your scripts -- you're in favor of the people who argue for rounding up their enemies into death camps, remember? You think those people are great, and need special support and protection. So if I were to argue for rounding you up and throwing you in a death camp, you would suddenly be on my side and offering every resource you have to help me further my glorious cause. Right?

This is too much. Uncrossable lines must be drawn immediately. Humanity cannot afford to "wing it" when it comes to ethics and morality at this scale. There needs to be clear lines where crossing means the highest criminal consequence to the researcher. And people funding it. And it needs to be a global effort.

Everything needs a balance.

Ahhhhh I didn't realize the table scrolled and thought it was directly comparing itself to Evernote, my mistake!

The biggest 2 things you hit on is:

1) Boostnote is ugly.

It's not stylish, but I do like how it's simple and direct.

2) Images.

I forgot how painful adding an image was in Boostnote.

You've convinced to at least try out Notable! I've been searching for an open source project to contribute to as well so this could very well be it.

Thanks!
I don't understand your argument suggesting I don't trust containers because I would have more than one Kube cluster per region/account.

Multiple Kubernetes clusters for workload separation and AWS accounts for workload separation aren't quiet the same and bring different levels of complexity depending on what your internal processes look like.
The writing wasn’t particular clear, this wasn’t a proposed solution but a use case where at least once delivery + idempotency ensures the message is never duplicated in either downstream system.
If you take a very specific definition of Patreon's business, donate a monthly amount to creators in return for nothing, recognition, or virtual/physical benefits, then perhaps you could say they have a defacto monopoly.

But if you take a slightly wider look at supporting creators whose content you enjoy, then not at all. You have Twitch subscriptions, YouTube supports/members/whatever they are calling it these days, PayPal, multiple variations of crowdfunding platforms, etc...

It also seems way easier to start up something like Patreon than a FB competitor.

Yes, in fact the ex-Paypal employee at Patreon who is making these censorship decisions explicitly mentioned the credit card processor guidelines as the reason for their recent censorship. It's difficult not to see this censorship as something other than cartel-like behavior on the part of credit card processors.
I was going to assert that read significantly predates getchar, but it turns out that both may have existed from V1 Unix onward. However, getchar in V1 through V6 had a different EOF value from our familiar modern one of (-1); they all instead returned a 0 byte to indicate EOF.

(The V7 getc/getchar/etc manpage notes this as a BUG, although it doesn't specifically document what the V1-V6 EOF was. Presumably everyone who this was relevant for already knew. All of this is based on the historical Unix trees available through www.tuhs.org.)

The attack surface argument certainly is debatable.

I wonder how many multi-tenant workloads are actually at risk of an escape vulnerability. I wager that the multi-tenancy described in the article in the OP is actually disparate workloads across disparate teams in a particular enterprise where it seems (to me) fairly unlikely for someone with access to run a workload to also have the willingness to compile and run malicious code to take advantage of an escape vulnerability.

On the other hand, publicly available compute, i.e. AWS, GCP, Azure seems way more likely to be the subject of attacks from random malicious individuals seek to take advantage of an escape vulnerability if one existed.
I wrote about this one three years ago:
https://caseysoftware.com/blog/opm-background-check-hack-a-d...

Basically, what if a secondary goal of the hack was to modify the data? Who was denied or granted a security clearance after the attackers got access?

If you were a State-sponsored actor, making sure your guy got into the key position would be easier if you could taint the competition.
This is true at the machine and network level, however once you overlay a Kubernetes cluster over those constructs you create a new failure domain.

Apparently the use of an empty read is to probe to see if you get various errors or an immediate 0-size return. This is merely a 'may' requirement in the Single Unix Specification, so I'm not sure how portable it is in practice.

Nobody said he recorded it. Maybe he was typing it as they talked. Or typed enough that he could accurately recall the parts he couldn't type fast enough.
I think the issue here is that we started with "traditional" AI (logic solvers, inductive reasoning, graph search etc.) which were very clearly constrained and single-purpose. The goal has always been AGI which is all-singing-all-dancing post-Singularity magic. Now we have taken another couple of steps along the path from AI to AGI, we're gonna need another term for AI which can be applied to a range of tasks without significant further human intervention, but doesn't have the implied general reasoning and perception that our magic AGI will eventually have.

In spaceship terms, what we had was Soyuz and what we wanted was the Enterprise. Now we're about to get a BFR / BFS which can go to Mars and back. Is that a 'real' spaceship?
It's really not up to me. I am not their parent.

These kids are my step-grandkids. And while their mother loves me like a father, I'm not really able to step in and make demands. She was 18 when her mother and I got together, so the best I can do there is lean on her, and I have been.

I actually stayed at home and raised my daughter myself, and when I met my current wife she had a daughter that was 6 years old and a son who was still 3 years old. Those two I've been much more involved with. They're in their 30s now but none of them have any kids yet, and I don't expect their kids will go through this sugar addiction

The only way to challenge the credit card companies and big banking is cash in the mail.

Cost of Living. I was born in California. I lived there for two years again starting in 1998. Even 20 years ago, cost of living was stupid. And that was in rural northern California. It was worse in the city. And it hasn't gotten any better in the last 20 years.

In fact, I've even excluded California from my last and any future job searches because as a plastics engineering manager, a company can't pay me enough for my family and I to live on there. It's crazy.

I wasn't a Typora user, but from what I can see after playing a bit with the macOS version a few major differences could be:

- Notable has better notes organization thanks to indefinitely nestable tags. I think one organizes notes in Typora by organizing the directory structure? That's fine but limiting as one can't really put a note into 2 folders at the same time (maybe Typora supports symlinks though, I'm not sure).

- Notable comes with multi-note editing, which is cool for tagging/pinning/starring multiple notes at once.

- Typora is way more customizable.

- Typora feels more native to me and starts up faster.
I think the point is that you likely won't do all of those things all day every day; rarely do you spend all day and night in the sun, drinking coffee every hour, and eating red meat 3 times a day.

Your phone is with you at all times of the day, always within 5 feet of your person, which means that if it leads to cancer (which we will likely find out within the next 30 years since American children are now surrounded by phones and tablets from age 5) then it's much more likely that you end up with cancer because of your phone rather than the fact that you were out in the sun for an hour every day.
I think the most important point described in that article is that the MCAS trim, unlike the other kinds of elevator trim, isn't defeated by limit switches on the yoke - and that this critical information was not in the training or flight manual.
Thanks, make sense.
FWIW, I've used Emacs for a long time (i.e. long before this article was published) and don't recall it ever flickering.

Not to say it didn't, or that it wasn't a problem for the author, but he's exaggerating a bit when he says it flickered all the time.
That's one of the things I was interested in as well. One just can't include all fancy plugins available in a real editor into a note taking app.
As a general response, I'm highly suspicious of anyone denying these connections as being someone who's spent very little time with children. Anyone who cites an article to back up their opinion is especially suspect.

Unfortunately there are no mobile apps for Notable, but you could put your notes into Dropbox and edit them using any of the already existing text editors.

Sun cost fallacy is when I don't put on SPF protection thinking it won't be that bad out on the beach today.
I really worry about cost in this future of leaning on something like ACI/Fargate to actually run the containers.

An m5.large instance (2vcpu/8gb) costs $70/mo on-demand ($44/mo with a 1 year reservation). A similar Fargate runtime costs $146/mo.

A b2ms Azure instance (2vcpu/8gb) costs $60/mo on-demand ($39/mo 1 year reservation). Azure Container Instances at a similar provisioning level costs $176/mo by my calculations.

That's not a small difference. That's, like, 3x.

Point being, I love virtual-kublet from the perspective of a scale-up just trying to get a product out the door. But for established companies, I still think the core idea of a container on a VM you control is going to rule. Fortunately Kubernetes allows amazingly easy flexibility to switch, and that's a reason why it might be the most important technology created in recent history.
One way we could wheedle useful information out of this is how the published prices relate to other providers, especially if there are huge discrepancies.

Telling me an average MRI has an average list price of $1000 at provider A tells me nothing. But if provider B says theirs is $10,000? That could be pointing to something important.
I’ve lived in Chicago, currently in SF. Both cities are filled with homeless like I’ve never seen before. I’d say I felt less safe in Chicago, but in SF the homeless are more trashy: poops and seringes and crazy people everywhere. People get harassed or mugged all the time. It’s not pretty.

Now, tech-wise, SF is freaking amazing and you HAVE to go there for a few years if you work in tech. It’s that magical. If you’re a tourist, I’d say avoid it.

Now if you want my opinion, it’s the US that has a huge disparity problem. SF is just the symptom of something much deeper. People are unwilling to see what’s in front of them. When I talk to people in SF or Chicago they tell me that their city is safe and that it has as much homeless as Paris or London. When I hear about prop C which tries to throw more money at the problem, people seem to be against it.
Didn't know this existed, thanks for sharing. (I got my other impression by Sander's fb which I follow).

If I understood this text correctly, this will be:

An optional insurance plan (SEC. 105)
An insurance that gets tax benefits (SEC. 701)
An insurance that has incredibly perverse utilization incentives (SEC. 202)

I would be quite on board on this plan if it weren't funded with special taxation, and it gave itself no promise of benefit for being the state, not because I think its a good one, but because it will confirm its a terrible one.

OK, maybe I am exaggerating a bit but this is useless. Someone brought unconscious to the hospital should pay reasonable and common fees when they leave the hospital, not whatever the hospital dreams up. What the insurance companies pay the hospital for the procedure, maybe with a 20% increase should be it for everyone.

Vim solves this issue for me, since it loads nearly instantaneously even loaded down with plugins.
But it is far less common to come across startups who believe this.
Think of blockchain startups as the top 1% of the most optimistic investors who believed in the technology so much that they created companies around an immature infrastructure.

Selection bias explains why they held even even after a 90% correction.
I think that one is a key point. Regardless of the insurance carrier-negotiated discounts, this kind of transparency should make people say "wth?"

Especially as people start working and thinking of how to provide 1:1 comparisons between providers. That's the next step but we need the data first.

It's not really about FLOPS. These sorts of many core, low performance per core systems do well in handling lots of I/O where there isn't all that much processing involved per node, and/or micro-latency isn't much of an issue, but lots can operate in parallel.

For actual FLOPS/kW where the FLOPS matter, you still can't beat GPUs, or for non GPU-able code high-wattage high-performance CPUs that can chew through data like nobody's business. These low power systems' FLOPS take more kW in aggregate to perform the same work in similar ballpark times. But when things are I/O bound, the low power cores should be able to handle messages & transactions with much less wattage overhead than what the high single-thread performance CPUs have to spool up.
Agree on phased array as a good option to get necessary aperature.

My thinking on the better hardware was that getting 10Mhz bandwidth allowed them to reduce the dish size to 3.5m. Better dynamic range and even more bandwidth might get you to <3m, which could possibly be in old C-band dish antenna range.

I don't think multi-tenancy has been "retrofitted" onto Kubernetes. Kubernetes was designed with multi-tenancy in mind from the very early releases -- namespaces, authn/authz (initially ABAC, later RBAC), ResourceQuota, PodSecurityPolicy, etc. New features are added over time, such as NetworkPolicy (which has been in Kubernetes for a year and a half, so perhaps not "new" anymore!), EventRateLimit, and others, but always in a principled way. And the integration of container isolation technologies like gVisor and Kata are using a standard Kubernetes extension point (the Container Runtime Interface) so I do not view this work as retrofitting.

Moreover, even today there are real public PaaSes that expose the Kubernetes API served by a multi-tenant Kubernetes cluster to mutually untrusting end-users, e.g. OpenShift Online and one of the Huawei cloud products (I forget which one). Obviously Kubernetes multi-tenancy isn't going to be secure enough today for everyone, especially folks who want an additional layer of isolation on top of cgroups/namespaces/seccomp/AppArmor/etc., but there are a lot of advantages to minimizing the number of clusters. (See my other comment in this thread about the pattern we frequently see of separate clusters for dev/test vs. staging vs. prod, possibly per region, but sharing each of those among multiple users and/or applications.)

Disclosure: I work at Google on Kubernetes and GKE.
The biggest difference IMHO is that notes in Notable are just Markdown files, so I can open them in any Markdown editor and use all its features. One can't do this with Boostnote because they are wrapping the note in .cson for adding some metadata (Notable uses Markdown front matter instead).

> I've been searching for an open source project to contribute to as well so this could very well be it.

That would be awesome :)
Agree, I'm not sure what the author is getting at here:

"Compounding this is the fact that most Kubernetes components are not Tenant aware. Sure you have Namespaces and Pod Security Policies but the API itself is not. Nor are the internal components like the kubelet or kube-proxy. This leads to Kubernetes having a “Soft Tenancy” model."

That's like saying the Hypervisor isn't "tenant" aware.

Your experience mirrors what I've seen.

Many teams use clusters for stages because they work on underlying cluster components and need to ensure they work together and upgrade processes work (e.g. terraform configs comes to mind). Theres no reason to separate accounts because the cluster constructs aren't there for security.

Considering it deeper (I haven't had to think about this for a while), I think multi tenancy would cover almost all of the use cases I've seen except for the platform dev where people use clusters for separation when testing cluster config-as-code changes.
