You're right that it's slightly more complicated than e.g. `sha256sum < myfile`. I would claim it's still "just the cryptographic hash of that file", albeit via a slightly more complicated algorithm than raw SHA or MD5 or whatever.

Files get split into "blocks" of raw data of a certain size (e.g. 64k), and each of these is hashed to get its ID. Blocks don't have to store raw data, they can instead store references to block IDs, i.e. "concatenate the blocks with the following hashes: 12345 abcde vwxyz ...". Those blocks are also hashed to get their ID and can be referenced by other blocks, and so on.

The first type of block (containing raw data) acts as storage. The second type of block (containing references) tells us how to reconstruct our files. The reason IPFS does this is to increase the chance that data can be deduplicated (for example, if we upload a new version of our blog, the unchanged pages can reference the same blocks as the old version) which makes storage more efficient (with a logarithmic cost for storing the blocks of references). It also makes the storage more resilient, since blocks that appear in multiple files (or multiple version of a file) are more likely to be served by more people. It also allows downloads to be performed in parallel, since we can get some blocks from one person and other blocks from someone else.

This splitting-up-and-referencing process is deterministic, so people uploading the same file will get the same hash. However, there are options which we can change from the defaults, which will cause the hash to differ; for example if we pick a different block size or hashing algorithm. Files can also be added in a "streaming mode", which will also result in a different hash than adding in the default way. AFAIK streaming mode makes it easier to pick blocks from the start of a file (e.g. so we can buffer the first X% of a video file, rather than fetching X% of the blocks from all over the file in whatever order our requests happen to come back in)

> Can I hand someone a 16cb96ba835448d441b02c50d783a0ea7b424df1 and expect them to be able to find the file?

That's not a valid IPFS hash (e.g. https://ipfs.io/ipfs/16cb96ba835448d441b02c50d783a0ea7b424df... doesn't work). If you send that file to `ipfs add` (or `ipfs add -n` to only get the hash and avoid actually serving it), you will get a hash that anyone can attempt to fetch. Those attempts should work, as long as someone (possibly you, possibly anyone else) is serving that file (just like with HTTP; although multiple people can serve it and no permission is required, unlike the single IP/domain of HTTP identifiers)
> In general, NFC is the one to use as a default.

Why nfc instead of nfd?
Southwest is also a unique case, as they had their Max 8s fitted with a sensor and warning to indicate problems with the AOA sensor that it implicated with MCAS.

So Southwest's position is rational, but doesn't scale well to other airlines using the standard Max 8.
See, and I thought the aviation industry’s stellar safety reputation has been built on their willingness to ground planes at the smallest glimmer of a problem. It’s what tells the public, “hey, we don’t mess around.”
Are there any particularly interesting exposes that you'd recommend? I'm curious to read more about this sort of thing.
Knowing what to do and actually doing it under stress are two very different things. The aircraft that I fly, a Cirrus SR22, also has an electric trim and so there is the potential for something to go wrong and the trim to go rogue. When that happens, dealing with it is a "simple" matter of pulling the right circuit breaker. But the circuit breakers are on a panel located near your right shin. They are not easy to see nor to reach, and if you don't have the location of the trim breaker memorized, the odds of being able to find it and pull it while the plane is trying to kill you are rather low. Happily, there has never been a runaway trim on an SR22 (AFAIK) so this doesn't keep me up at night. But I can certainly understand how even a pilot that was prepared for this eventuality might fail to deal with it properly while under duress.
Those airplanes were designed from the ground up with that control system in mind (the F16 is one of those). It's not something that you would normally retrofit on an otherwise unchanged design, the original 737 was never meant to be flown in that mode and a software patch to make it work that way sounds like a dangerous plan.

On another note, I don't think the 737 Max is inherently unstable, so I'm not even sure this line of reasoning applies at all or even in part.
Bob Ross. That is all.

https://www.netflix.com/title/80097532
Is there an RSS feed?
Sure, but those pilots knew they were flying that kind of aerodynamically unstable airplane ahead of time. These pilots apparently were thinking "this is just a 737".
The main benefit docker introduced, was leading developers to at least consider "configuration injection" and "stateless installs" ("12 factor apps").

If upstream supplies a decent docker image, chances are that means the package is more amenable to scripting and running in a chroot/jail/container - and documents it dependencies somewhat.

That said, snaphotting the "state" of your container/jail can be nice. Recently I used the official ruby images, and could build a custom image to use with our self-hosted gitlab (with built-in docker registry) that a) got a standard Debian based ruby image and applied updates, and b) built freetds for connecting to mssql.

Now I can quickly update that base image as needed, while the CI jobs testing our rails projects "only" need a "bundle install" before running tests.

And the scripts are largely reusable across heterogeneous ruby versions (yes I hope we can get all projects up on a recent ruby..).
But they can know which domains you visit, which would strongly imply a number of searches using DuckDuckGo, which might be interesting to Google.
The full details are in https://www.google.com/chrome/privacy/whitepaper.html#malwar... , but the short summary is:

A hash prefix list gets downloaded locally; Chrome checks locally against the prefix list. If a URL hits, Chrome will send the hash prefix (not the full hash and not the URL) to the server, the server will send back all full hashes that match that prefix, and then the client will complete the check locally.

In theory, if the server had a small number of matching full hashes, it could guess about what URL a client might be hitting, but in practice the system is designed as much as possible to avoid ever leaking data about what you're visiting to Google servers.
Can confirm. Also, API integrations, such as Buffer, are not working.
The rationale could be that it’s still safer with a pilot who knows what to do. Given how safe other aircraft are, it seems unlikely.

As for financial damages, it’s human nature to underestimate risks that have a large cost to mitigate. Even if grounding the Max is more cost effective, I wouldn’t be confident in them reaching that conclusion.

>nowadays the thinking is more that antitrust laws should be used when things cause higher prices.

That’s exactly what is happening...Spotify can offer price $x to their customers but Apple’s rules are forcing the price to be $x + 30% Apple Tax. Spotify has articulated numerous acts Apple has taken to ensure Spotify can’t circumvent the Apple Tax...Apple coming out with a competing App and being able to charge $x sans their own tax is just the icing on the anticompetitive cake.

This is one of the biggest issues with Google as well...where company was advertising on Google for $x, once google uses its position to determine they want to compete Google starts competing with their own customers for the same ads jacking up the ad pricing.

This basically ensures both Apple and Google can use their dominate market position and platforms to determine markets, market prices, and then unfairly compete with the market incumbents by offering the original $x price without the google/Apple Tax. There is no leaving the Apple/Google platforms at that point or you are basically waiving the white flag and telling your customers to go over to the Apple/Google product.

The hardest part about painting besides the techniques is composition.

Whether your work is representational or non-representational, it's extremely difficult to go from what you have in your head to what you put on the canvas.

If you have a thought, an idea, or even an emotion you should practice putting _that_ on canvas. The technique will come as you paint more and more. YouTube can help for some techniques if you want to figure out how to do something.

Really, just start painting and the rest will come. Experiment with texture, shape, and composition. Don't worry too much about color. When you start getting better at composition the colors become obvious. I'd even recommend your first few paintings just stay with a single color.

Not him, but... Microsoft nailed it with the Sculpt ergonomic keyboard imho. Detached numpad so you can put the mouse closer to the keyboard, gentle sloping, nice key travel.

As an extension, not only is Apple guilty of the absurd 30% tax on IAP, Google does it too and I think its very unfair that you cannot choose your own payment processor. Apple and Google should be viewed as an oligarchy of some sort being that they control almost all of the mobile market. The fact that there is almost no oversight to their business practices and their ability to literally take any app off the market or charge whatever processing fee they want is ridiculous. Its not like any company can also just set out to build their own app store since Google and specially Apple would never allow them to compete. I could go on this topic for days since I just know how much mobile developers are so vulnerable and powerless against the app stores.

Three points of interest:

1) Full developer announcement on their Patreon page -> https://www.patreon.com/posts/25343688

2) They are putting on steam largely because of the USA's shit healthcare system "after Zach's latest cancer scare, we determined that with my healthcare plan's copay etc., I'd be wiped out if I had to undergo the same procedures . . "

3) Cool to see that they are going to use graphics built by two of the most popular community modders:

-=> MayDay built one of the most popular current graphics packs @ http://goblinart.pl/vg-eng/df.php

-=> And Meph has built a fairly massive tile set as well @ http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=161047.0

Will be interesting to see how they change with native support.
There are two insurmountable problems with rating the Web as a broad concept.

First, you'll never get users to do it at huge scale, which is what you need. Those days ended - to the limited extent they existed at all - with sites like StumbleUpon declining and with the arrival of the smartphone with apps dominating most average usage. Unlike food (Yelp), the average person has zero passion for the Web and zero interest in taking the time to provide feedback in such a manner (they have as much passion for the Web broadly as they do any other utility; they use it, yes, they get upset when it doesn't work, yes, but they have zero passion for it). To get people to dedicate time consistently, you need passion. The young Web had that because of who the early users were (early adopters have passion), and it was a shiny new toy even to the average person (at least for a few years).

Second, the interface point (for initial rating and discovery sorting) has to be tied into an already existing epic scale discovery point. That's because you aren't going to be able to get people to first browse to the rating site for discovery purposes, the audience for that would be relatively small (which is why StumbleUpon is dead). There are only a few sites/services that could even be considered on the short list for that: Google, Facebook, Reddit, Twitter (and other services in places like China or Russia). You're inherently competing with the huge platforms for discovery. The next huge platform will arrive with an inflection point occurance.

I'm not suggesting you can't build a small service that would be popular with a group of passionate users. I think that's possible. You won't be able to "rate the Web" though, at the scale that would be desirable. You need millions and millions of quality active users for that.
Oh no. There goes everyone's productivity, killed by catsplosions.
Sometimes a job calls for duct tape.
The gameplay model is extremely elaborate and compelling, but the UI is wildly inconsistent and vigorously inscrutable, even compared to "every key is a separate command" classics like Nethack.
I do not at all buy into the idea that many people are doing jobs not worth doing or that we are on the verge of running out of worthwhile things to do.
I can't believe that they built that system to rely on a single sensor without taking into account any other data, such as the pilot's control stick, change in altitude, airspeed, etc. I would not like to be the engineer responsible for 300 deaths.
Yes, I have only reviewed ComBLAS's documentation, but would eventually like to dig into it deeper. A thought I had for distributed graphs would be something like support on top of a distributed store like citus, where shards hold subgraphs. This may be an interesting way to sidestep Postgres' 1GB limit on varlena objects as well.

Edit: I'd forgot to ask, do you have some ideas on the subject? I'm all ears.
Dunno about currently, but about three years ago, if you opened your own site in Chrome, a couple minutes later you'd get a visit from Google bot on the same url.
You skipped a step: demonstrate that the risk estimate is real, and not merely a guess.

I can’t help but draw the parallel to anti-vax logic: ”if it’s at all possible that my child might be seriously injured from a vaccine, then I must avoid vaccines!”

Setting a standard of “any risk is unacceptable because the downside risk is absolute” is also incorrect.
Heh. I'm a bit on the other side of the spectrum. I love writing, but I love the craft of "book-making" even more (everything from LaTex, through Kindle, through physical book-making). So I know that I have to "leave room" for the book-making part by limiting my content within specific projects.
The political system in the U.S. is broken from my perspective. It is not broken because tax rates are too low. That tax rates are low for the very wealthy is a symptom of the brokenness of the system. It is not the cause and I did not claim the U.S. has a broken system due to low taxation.
So yesterday Google had a major (and out of character) outage, and today Facebook has a major (and also out of character) outage.

I can't wait to see the RCA for both of these and if they're related.
A bunch of non-scalable examples do exist, and they are very exciting, but we have nothing that can yet reliably simulate molecules of practical interest (we have only "toy" examples that are small enough to be already solvable with a classical computer).
The US has an independent judiciary, and regulatory agencies which are fairly insulated from political pressure.

I'm not saying that China is evil, I'm just saying that there is a reason why the international community doesn't take anything they do at face value. The US can be wrong about things, and China can be right (for example, it would be naive to believe that the FAA is completely free from Boeing's influence), but the US's institutions are definitely more transparent and trustworthy than China's.

I hate to be that guy, but Apple built their own platform and they can bend the rules as they see fit.

Spotify should just quit said platform if they don't like the rules and ask their "fans" to follow them over to other platforms. I know this is not likely to happen but, oh boy, what a move. Let's all jump into the water and let the Apple platform be an Apple service ghost town.

On the other hand I do want to see Apple slapped on the hand by the European Commission and level the ground for all developers, specially indie ones.
