Sorry, I was in a hurry and I think I mixed up articles since I think another one recently appeared on HN which pointed to a page with a much better explanation.

The main idea behind Pijul (as I understand it) is that it makes merging divergent branches correct and predictable by making patch application an associative operation.[1] What this means is that that, given patches A, B and C, it should be irrelevant whether you are:

1. starting with A, applying B on top, followed by applying C
2. starting with A, applying the result of C applied on top of B all at once

In other words,

(AB)C = A(BC)

This isn't always what happens in git because it doesn't work with patches on an abstract level. Instead, it always works with states of the branch heads (and sometimes the state of their branching point, i.e. BASE, in case of a 3-way merge).

As to why this matters, [2] and [3] has practical test cases where the difference of these two approaches is observable. [3] is an example of plausible C code where the non-patch approach may produce an incorrect result. It also demonstrates the way the patch algebraic approach is able to take individual changes into account and apply edits from the second branch in the correct place in the first branch, even though the affected code has moved in the first branch in the meantime.

The focus on patches has other important implications, such as the fact that branches then simply become sets of patches and cherry-picking retains the identity of patches instead of creating new, unique commits.

The other important aspect of Pijul is use of efficient data structures that are naturally suited to the problem in order to avoid suboptimal algorithmic complexity. This is explained in more detail here[4].

I've noticed that ever since the blockade of Quatar began, Al Jazeera has been slowly starting to push soft propaganda. The Best thing about AJ is that has stories from places that other news outlets ignore.
Several things that excite me about this protocol:

— UDP-based and different stream multiplexing such that packet loss on one stream doesn't hold up all the other streams.

— Fast handshakes, to start sending data faster.

— TLS 1.3 required, no more clear-text option.

Overall this has the potential to help with overall latency on the web, and that is something I am really looking forward to.

(Yes I'm aware that there are many steps that can be done today to reduce latency, but having this level of attention at the protocol level is also an improvement.)
I've never had a situation where someone couldn't watch the videos due to a technical issue that wasn't possible to solve. I also allow people to download the videos locally so they can watch them offline (again optimizing for the happy path).

If they don't like the content, then I still issue the refund even if they watched the whole course. This type of refund is extremely rare in my case. Most people know what they're getting into before they buy the course because the sales page has a video going over what we'll cover and the page itself has a detailed description of what's included.
Yeah, there does need to be a way to restrict bad actors. And this is already a real problem: major corporations claiming copyright over other people's original content on YouTube, and that original content getting blocked as a result. When a company does that regularly, submits too many false positives, their ability to claim ownership should be restricted somehow. At least there should be some sort of reasonable consequence. But at the very least, the original owner should retain ownership and eventually get their money again, and that's not currently happening.
That is the point isn't it? European countries finally start catching up to the US in the size of their immigrant population, and all of a sudden you're seeing massive social upheaval and populist movements popping up everywhere.
I started with NetBSD about 1995. Moved to Linux full-time in 2002. SuSE linux until 2004, when I switched to Slackware, and I switched to Arch on everything about 2013.

Yes, we do have nice park just outside our house and there is also forest with a lot of hiking trails in walking distance. I try to bring my kids out every day, our 2 years old can easily walk 10 km now. Also trip to grocery store is like 3km and I do shop every day. It adds up quickly.

2-4hrs per day (including weekends) for a total of 15-28hrs per week. Rest of the time spend with my family, friends, exercising or running errands. Used to work 10-12hrs/day. Now I can't, don't really want to or need to.

Productivity tip: start a business, delegate everything, then either sell the business or keep it as "passive" income. After delegating all operational work, you can manage a business with just one meeting a week. Hence you can manage multiple businesses in less time and more profitably than having a full time job.

Happiness is a different thing though, which unless you are burning yourself out, or hate your job, doesn't really depend on how many hours you work. In fact, having too much "free" time in your hands can sometimes feel a lot worse than not having any.
Wow. Any resources you could link to?
Out of curiosity, what names did you have trouble with? Would you say this was one of your first scifi novels? I ask because I'm a native Spanish speaker and had no trouble at all with Le Guin's naming in The Left Hand of Darkness. I remember they were standard scifi-sounding names, though better than the usual fare of names like "R'Lyeh", "Cthulhu", "R'hllor", "Klingon" and "Qo'noS" and such like :)

Have you read The Lord of the Rings, and did you have trouble with the made up non-Latin names? (you'd be in good company: I know plenty of people have trouble with Tolkien languages, which I also find puzzling, because I simply assume "these are foreign names" and go on with the plot)

Reminds me of the old Malcolm Gladwell piece about car safety, with the Consumers Union tester. Bigger vehicles are safer when they're hit (passive safety), but smaller cars are safer than you'd predict from their size alone because they're more able to avoid getting hit in the first place (active safety). They are more safe by making the driver feel less safe.

I think you need analyze your requirements first, and then let that you point you towards the databases that provide the functionality you need. Then evaluate and compare the databases.

I would start by asking if a RDMBS or MPP warehouse can work. If it can't, why not?

I run a company that captures billions of events a day (an event source pattern) and we use Snowflake. I chose snowflake because it separates compute from storage (effecively paying $.20/compressed TB/month for storage) and allows me to elastically expand the compute required for analysis or alteration of data.

I don't need need most the real time features of a time serieis DB (but I could easily split the data out of Kafka to a TSDB if I needed). I need the ability to alter the data and run sophisticated aggregations across the data.

Bottom line: if you're not certain you need a TSDB, or know what features you need yet, I wouldn't go chasing down a TSDB. Let your requirements push you to a database.
Privacy cards allow you to generate new cards whenever you want, even pause or 'destroy' them whenever you need. A merchant can block the cards that come from that service though. Merchants such as Supreme NY, but Privacy has claimed they have found a way around that.
I'm unclear about your question.

I've structured my life such that the type of work I do serves my broader life goal.

At the point in which that's not possible, then how I spend my time is out of my control and the question becomes moot because I'd effectively have no control over my life.
> not simply to feel better in short bursts, but rather to reframe and reprocess thoughts, feelings, and memories in such a way that they become easier to “hold” even if they don’t go away

This is absolutely the gist of it. Anything that helps you do something along these lines is worth pursuing. It's about building up scaffolding around a disaster area-- not to cut off access, but to put up a useful, multipurpose firewall.
I find it curious that on sufficient doses of MDMA ones eyes can rapidly go back and forth, similar to the EMDR process.
QUIC is developed by an IETF working group where anyone can participate, and there are definitely some productive participants who don't work for Google (or any of the other big companies).
That depends what you mean by "enough money".

If more than half of the population makes at least double what they need to keep themselves from starvation, then you could argue there is enough money.

In short, your disagreement with the GP is probably due to a disagreement about the lifestyle that UBI is supposed to afford its recipients.

Those in power might determine that the bare minimum UBI to avoid violent revolution is something like $5000 per year.

The old chaps around here had exactly the same hope for XMPP that you're having right now. It had it all, except, crucially, marketing.

This article really bugs me, the issue is coming from our use of social media rather than installations themselves.

If it wasn't designed just to cash-in on this issue, these could be actual art installations of the likes of Kusama's rather than extravagant photo booths.
Good point about insurance.
In case of conflict, YouTube shouldn't blindly side with the most powerful party as they're currently doing. Legally the fairest way would be an impartial judge, but in practice small players can't afford the legal representation for that.
Access to fish markets and sell-through rates are more important than proximity to an ocean. But places near oceans tend to place more importance on seafood, so they probably have better markets.

I think Hiring is one of the hardest problems. Your bringing on someone to your team and your going to invest an incredible amount of time training them. You want to find the right person.
What I found to be the biggest problem at Amazon beyond the issue here was not so much inflated expectations but rather top-down technologically backwards micromanagement of how to get things done.

The most flagrant example of this in my experience was when I was ready to hand an AWS customer a simple script that would replace their command line application and magically make it run in the cloud, uploading inputs and, and downloading results, it was blocked from release to the customer immediately because it wasn't a full web app with staffing and an on-call pager.
The condition should be based solely on whether the delegate felt, following the workshop, that there was a significant discrepancy between the expected and actual value delivered by the training.

As others have mentioned, this feels a bit .. overly-prescriptive and even a little patronising ('the way you feel must tick these 4 boxes otherwise you are not being reasonable' is what I feel it conveys), though I think the intent was good. What if I learnt one small thing, but didn't feel that the rest of the workshop was useful?

I wouldn't say Emacs is "a nightmare to set up"; rather, it's a continuous process of learning and improving.

Getting Emacs installed and running should hopefully be easy (e.g. via your OS package manager). After that I think it mostly comes down to coming up with workflows that you're comfortable with, building muscle memory and gradually introducing new things to see whether or not they stick.
Ha! For once it’s not MongoDB but Postgres. I wonder why the sending is effected though. Can’t they run their service with an empty databse in the meantime?
All the brakes can do is stop the wheels; you still have way more mass generally and momentum to actually get stopped.

While crashing can be catastrophic, I'd like to see some numbers on how many crashes into the backs of trucks were because the truck out-brake'd the smaller vehicle behind it as opposed to the smaller vehicle not paying attention.

I agree to an extent. If France decided to implement these laws in their own country, 30 something other countries could shrug and do their own thing, while the French could attempt to fight it on a local or regional level. While the EU has enabled plenty of good, it's also the perfect platform to implement less good policies such as this in the interest of corporations or rightsholders on an intranational level in a way that wasn't possible before. It's also much harder to be heard as a citizen on the EU-level. I'm not sure what the solution should be, since overall I support the EU.

There is no easy way (in any platform as far as I'm aware), of discovering and updating all clients that depend on some data structure if you plan to change the data structure in an incompatible way.

Better to "grow" your data structures than "change" them.
Yes. Either we become Greece, or we tax earners enough to make up the difference.

Neither of these seems pleasant, but if enough people are starving or homeless, it might be inevitable.
I don't think you'll find a persecutor willing to take a laundry list of low probability evidence and go after it, whatever the size of the list. Almost certainly, the longer you make the list, the less people you'll find willing to use it.
The important part of QUIC is that lost packets will not block delivery of all other data being delivered over the same connection, but only the data from any affected streams (for example, a single HTTP request/response will usually be one stream).
Get a drink, take a walk outside. That will also recharge you without leading to a permanent distraction.
It was, I think, correct until relatively recently. Certainly, the countries of Western Europe of the 80s were, for the most part, each very homogeneous.

It's no longer the case (I read today that 1 in 4 Swedish schoolchidren wasn't born in Sweden!), and I wonder very much what that will mean for the future of Europe. The mass influx of Germans, Irish, Scandinavians & Italians in the 19th century radically changed what it meant to be an American, and it seems to me that Europe is about to go through an even larger-scale change.

Certainly non-linear (in weight as well as price). Where you have roughly comparable lenses with, say, f4 max aperture (or a zoom with variable f4.5/5.6 or something like that) vs. an f2.8 fixed or zoom.

A good example is Canon 70-200mm.

EF 70-200mm f/4L USM is ~$600 and weighs 705 grams. (This is still a very good, fairly high-end lens.)

Compare to:

EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS III is ~$2100 and weighs over twice as much.

And certainly there are cheaper/lighter (and slower) third-party 70-200mm full-frame zooms and even smaller ones for APS-C sensors.

Don’t worry about a few bad apples taking advantage of a generous return policy. Keeping customers happy should be your primary concern, even those wanting a refund. They may even still leave you a good review afterwards! Plus, if someone’s unhappy and you don’t refund, they’ll just do a chargeback on their credit card which is much worse than a simple refund.
I'm telling you that the entire infrastructure of the world is held back by companies who don't do simple maintenance, and your response is to tell me it should be easy to do maintenance.

Someone isn't getting the point, and I don't think I can make it any clearer.
That's not really true. Independent participants don't have any power to affect any of it.
for younger people, this is already solved by noticing each online system corruption of the image. e.g. some social networks add a greenish tint, other have a bug that adds an also greenish (but stronger) tiny to only the last column of pixels, etc. then by looking at those artifacts you can know not only if it's a repost but for how long it's been reposted.

Whenever I read articles about things that happened hundreds of years ago, I always think that most of it was made up along the way, so I take it with a boulder of salt.

I am still early on in the book, but I agree I have gotten something out of it already. I always read the preface and the dust cover, but I never thought to look at the table of contents.

"After being suspected of eating a toddler he was ejected from the hospital."
The article is unclear on whether they found the missing tyke.
What he seems to be talking about are failing projects. Even thought he talks about doomed projects on both medium posts (that he posted both in a matter of minutes to HN) he is referencing to failing projects that have something against them (money, disfunctional team, time, ...)

Many of his conclusions are questionable and seem more or less only plausible because everyone likes a dramatic story/underdog winning.
E.g. in his "I'm passionate about doomed IT projects" article he says

> Extremely unified and high performing teams.
> These are people that I would truly cherish the opportunity to work with again. I know that they are rock solid and that if we ever worked together again, we would make an extremely effective team right off the bat.

Those are the same people that fucked the project up to begin with and yay they changed and the project was saved and maybe they redeemed themself in the process, but I would rather work with people that I could trust from the beginning and not becajse they changed when their ass was on the line. I have quite a few people I like to work with and some I met in a project that felt like "we against the world" but with them it never felt like we were failing and nobody would call the project dommed, because we routinely achieve the results we more or less expected. If we would fuck up this hard that our project was deemed as doomed than I would have a hard time getting sleep at night.

Anyway his article is "only" about changing the mindset and talking to the team, but really nothing about how to organize. And yes of course a project is doomed if nobody on the team wants to work on it, bad-mouths it and actively tries to fuck you over.

Ps excuse my language, but the "article" left a bad taste in my mouth because it seems more "inspirational" then anything else from a person that just wants exposure. I could be wrong... I don't think I'm
1. Tiny houses are nothing like what you are comparing them to.

2. For sure, 150sqft is unreasonably small, even if it's a very luxurious 150sqft. But that's a strawman. If all of the sensationalism around this extreme end of the spectrum inspires Joe Public to reconsider his American dream of owning a 2600sqft home, and maybe opt for 700sqft instead, then that's a massive win both on the sustainability and on the household debt fronts. We should be celebrating, celebrating, celebrating anyone stretching the Overton window on this topic.

If you think rich peoples wealth is in a form that can be redistributed to the poor (ie cash), then yiu are seriously deluded. The wealth of someone like jeff bezos is essentially the amount us poor people are willing to pay to be in charge of Amazon. It does not refer to any kind of cash which he can give away. Moreover, giving away his shares would simply lower the value of Amazon since the reason why those shares have any value is the business bezos runs
