Believe I'm Shadow banned (kinda like NYIBY's?), but here goes.

1. I guarantee Lilly has zero social/emotional/financial help.

In the article, she claimed she didn't want to give out her last name due to family embarrassment. If true, I have seen homless individuals whom come from means, but those family members never help.

I knew one lady who let her 65 year old mother live in the crawl space of her daughters house. Yes--three feet high. And she wondered why her mother drank a few beers before climbing in the sleeping bag.

Another guy, I knew was homless for a decade. He was actually one of the key developers onnthe original Word Star. He died on the streets. He had nine brothers, and sisters. On Facebook, they claimed they face him 10's of thousands of dollars over the years. They were lying.

I could go on, and on.

1. When your living in a vechicle, with limited funds; it's hard to think as logically as you.

2. They have a saying, homless for a year, brain damaged for life. No--Psychologists don't use the term, but the homless do. It's not a lofty concept. It's just the daily stress that comes with no shelter, no money, logical people who look at you like excrement, anxiety, depression; and an colon that isn't on a logical time plan. (Hell--I can't find a bathroom in many cities, and I'm doing ok.)

3. I'm loosing track if what I'm saying, but every homless person I have know had no real support. Their families don't help. Their friends stop returning calls. Society turns their back on them. And once you get a few tickets, you end up with a record, and worse off. Oh yea, if we don't do something about homelessness; I have a weird feeling we will see individuals breaking the law just to get into prison.

4. The the Logical guy whom I'm responding too, spend a few weeks on the streets, and see just how logical you become.

Having used Alibaba Cloud for the past few years, and having been in China for the past month, I would say:

> If I host in Europe or US would the speed of traffic going into China be very slow? ... Will I be able to serve 1Gbps to China from that EU server?

Not sure about 1Gbps, but I've seen my 200Mbps band basically saturated. It's rather spotty though -- definitely not 200Mbps all the time. Latency is a very big problem here, so make sure you do TCP tuning right; without TCP tuning you might see awful speeds.

> That is insanely expensive. How can startups in China handle that kind of hosting cost? Where do they host their websites?

The insanely expensive part is bandwidth. For instance with Alibaba Cloud, a 1 vCPU, 1G RAM, 20G SSD instance with pay-as-you-go network billing is like $6/mo so it's not that bad, and there are promotions year round so if you're committed for say one year at a time you can usually get it for maybe half the list price, but outbound bandwidth is a whopping $0.123/GB (which is actually not that different from AWS/GCP's Asia pricing).

I don't know about startups but I suppose it's fine if you host static assets through a CDN and only use the expensive bandwidth from compute for truly dynamic content.
Wicked.

Kind of a dumb headline though. One exchange can post 1e1000 btc of volume.

It also doesn't even mean the exchange is malicious. Some exchanges have 0 fees. So if someone using the exchange trades with themselves, it's 0 cost.
How is pinterest going public going to impact my life?
I think it does if the web page doesn't change the font size (which most do, so it's not that useful…).
I doubt Bitfinex's volume is real, either. Tether is their fractional-reserve-backed-by-loans-to-ourselves shitcoin.
You would think the FCC would have something to say about this.
Usually it's copying features "they have Foo, I just need Foo or Foo++". Worse is: competitor A has feature X, competitor B has feature Y, competitor C has feature Z... all I have to do is build X, Y, and Z in one! Unfortunately a lot of product people think this way. I think it's generally a mistake.
My point is that a public append only database (AKA, a Blockchain) is useful for a whole lot of things, in a whole lot of different usecases.

And just because JPM isn't following the exact same formula that other people are following, doesn't mean that an append only public database is useless to them.

Lots of people have used append only public databases for all sorts of things, for decades. (My example being Git).
Why Britain Uses Separate Hot and Cold Taps
Does your Kindle Fire perform well?
Sorry to see you're getting downvoted, but it's probably because that's just too long of a story to put in a comment. The parent you're replying to was being sarcastic: he meant to say, "well if we're going to pay other people to do our job, why stop at Heroku? why not pay squarespace even more money to do more work for us?" A reductio ad absurdum.

Ironically, he's right. But, as someone pointed out: Squarespace is probably not relevant in a conversation about Kubernetes, while Heroku is.

What Kubernetes is, is a long story. Suffice to say: if you don't know what it is, count your blessings. :)

I agree, Fukishima was designed about 15 years after nuclear power was first invented, it isn't that far off from complaining about how unsafe cars are in crashes using Model-Ts as an example. Fukushima should have been decommissioned before it was even 'completed' but because of the political barriers in building a new nuclear plant(s) they just stuck with it since it had already got over the regulation hurdles.

I think our problems with nuclear power are 95% political and maybe 5% or less technological. Canada for example has nuclear plants that use a neutron moderating coolant. If they lose coolant, the reaction stops. Unlike earlier designs where a loss of coolant lead to overheating and potential explosions. Not to mention new nuclear plants need 6-7 completely independent shutdown/safety features which is unheard of for earlier plants that have at best 1 or 2 emergency shutdown procedures that interfere with each other.

That might not be as true is the people were well paid, rested, happy and motivated. Robots are very easy to satisfy (some maintenance), if the human workforce was kept satisfied, robots would be cheaper.

Only if the thermal transfer is one way, otherwise you may find your coffee getting colder quicker as surfaces that capture heat, equally have a penchant to radiate it. For example two metal balls, one painted white, one painted black. Whilst in the sun the black one will heat up more than the white one, at night it will radiate heat much quicker - even if they start at the same temperature.

Though the prospect of sending a coffee mug that only works in the sun to some geeks I know, does bring with it some wry humour opportunities.

As for other uses, agreed, much potential if it has an edge over alternative offerings.
I manage everything soup to nuts with Terraform. If you know something vastly better please let me know, especially considering the changes to 0.12. It's a very well integrated system.
Then one day you come back and resize the array to a multiple of the memory alignment, and BAM! Off-by-one errors, or even vulnerabilities.

Or you enable more strict build settings and BAM! You have to go back and deal with all the places your code allows you to write off the end of a buffer because you just didn't give a damn before.

if your team is only a handful of devs who work on the thing that pays the bills + do k8s, yes. bad time. the only way i could justify running this is if you’re using a managed solution like gke or eks.

otoh, if you’re in the cloud, you already have the primitives to build your stuff w/o the k8s headache (vms, autoscalling, managed svcs). but that’s just my opinion. the koolaid is strong.

You can no longer profit mining Bitcoin with a CPU or GPU. ASICs are needed.
In what way?

The major differences are that Google is more involved with pixel hardware design than nexus (probably a good thing), and that pixels are more expensive (which follows the market price for flagship phones).

They both fill the niche of first-party flagship devices with the "pure, as google intended" (or something) android experience.
Obviously I now can’t prove it as I didn’t take a screenshot, but when I wrote my reply their comment specifically used the word “overcorrecting”. Clearly, they have edited their comment.

I can’t find anything in the Communications Act of 1934 that gives the FCC jurisdiction over marketing practices.
So, what I'm hearing is that my confusion is justified because Squarespace doesn't do what kubernetes and heroku do.

Is that accurate enough?

Just want to warn people about RingCentral. We were a paying customer for years but usage was quite low so we decided to replace it with Twilio for telephony and Zoom for video conferencing. Saves us $100/Mo or so.

I called RingCentral to cancel the service (can’t cancel online) and was assured we wouldn’t be billed again. What do you know, we were indeed billed again. I called in to dispute this and was told they had no record of my previous call and my service was not canceled. They refused to refund the money. I hung up and called back 1 minute later. They changed my security questions so that nobody would be able to talk to me about my account. I ended up filing a chargeback.

Never buy RingCentral. What an awful company.
Hangouts breaks after ten people. Zoom works well with hundreds, that’s why we seitched over.
For research and/or hobbyist machine learning I agree. For real world production use cases, you use TensorFlow.
There is a level of salary discrepancy where I would transition and start living as a woman, probably somewhere around the point of women earning 50 to 60% more. I'm not even sure it would be a lie; gender is pretty unimportant to me, and at some point the potential gains overcome inertia and habit.
But you can't pay your US taxes or judgements in Yen or Euros either. In that way, it's no different from the standpoint of a US citizen to any other alternate currency.
That kind of defeats the point. They were trying to reach a price - $499 for the Mini wasn’t that price.
Yes, email and web-search, the peak of consumer-side vendor lock in.

Indeed, networks effects may sometimes be relevant to some of these tools. But that's certainly not always true.
Not really? They are both imperative programming languages and not markup languages, so it’s unsurprising that they have this in common.

Except they sort of don’t have it in common now because Google executes JS. You can even see a PhantomJS rendering error in their search result previews if you get “lucky”.

Beanstalk is nice for rapid development. The problem I is that it doesn't scale for nontrivial architiched apps. I've converted failing beanstalk deployments to real orchestarators a few times.
I’m not sure I follow or maybe you have a step in your head that I can’t see.

@jl is literally giving money for living expenses for women to do this program. How does that help a rich or middle class woman more than a poor woman interested in the program? If anything, I’d expect the impact of $9K to be far greater for the last than the first (and presumably able to be treated as a tax-free gift or even if not, taxed at a low rate). If that’s the case, it seems more enabling, not less.
Shopify:

> Shopify has had growing concerns about Mailchimp’s app because of the poor merchant experience and their refusal to respect our Partner Program Agreement. Our terms require app partners to share all important data back to the merchant using Shopify’s API to help them run their businesses.

Mailchimp:

We're doing a sizable migration from Rancher 1.6 (which uses their internal orchestration system called "Cattle") to Rancher 2.x (which sits ontop of k8s).

Rancher 2 definitely streamlines the setup of an on-premise cluster. We use AWS for 80% of our stuff and have in-house servers for the remaining 20%, so it allows us to have a single pane of glass for all of our workloads (the AWS stuff being an EKS cluster "imported" into Rancher).

As a company they definitely seem to follow the "move fast and break things" mantra though. We've seen quite a few boneheaded bugs in the API and CLI tool.. and the fact that 1.x -> 2.x has no real migration path other than "rewrite all your app configurations as helm charts and you'll be fine!" is kind of a bitter pill. In reality the networking and storage side of things is vastly different between Cattle and k8s.

We really felt the limitations of Cattle though, so I understand that this move is necessary. Had they not hopped on the k8s bandwagon we probably would have eventually without them. I guess it's just the price you pay for being an early adopter!

Unfortunately it’s slow and runs Windows. Windows is a horrible for touch UI.
My personal take is that it's because Kubernetes has a lot of compositional features and abstractions, rather than a bunch of one off ones that don't play well with other features.

A good example is label selectors with Services, Pods, and Deployments.

You create a deployment, which is basically a scaling group for pods, and pods are the unit of deployment running containers.

A service exposes your pods ports to other components through a cluster local virtual IP, or a load balancer.

You cannot simply say "this service is for this app". You must instead say, this service will map it's service port, to the following pod port, for all pods that match the following label selector.

There are 5 different concepts (pods, deployments, services, labels and selectors) you need to learn before you can actually make your app accessible. But what's nice is that these concepts are used elsewhere in Kubernetes.

Labels and selectors are used to query over any group of objects, and allow grouping different things in arbitrary ways.
Pods are concepts that get reused by anything that deploys a container. There's Deployments, Statefulsets, Daemonsets, Jobs, CronJobs, these all create pods. So it's nice that pods are their own decoupled concept, but now you gotta understand how they're used, and relate to the other Resource types.

Part of what's great about this all is also that now that people are building custom operators/controllers, you can understand how to use them fairly easily because they build on all these existing concepts.

It was true that LX didn't initially handle what Clozure does with signals, but I recall adding a mechanism to work around the busted behaviour and I'd expect it to work now. Certainly in some basic testing of CCL things appeared dramatically improved, though this was some time ago now.

Probably due to "It can absorb any wavelength of light from UV to microwaves", playing a factor. I'd speculate that the infrared spectrum as fully encompassed by that range being the primary target for energy transfer and with that, a red bias as seen in the picture would be logical.

Whilst it can absorb energy in the range specified - how efficient it is along that range is another question.

Another aspect, by not being black, I'd expect it to radiate heat less. But then, like many, so many question, so little data.
SmartOS runs on Hetzner, OVH, EveryCity, MNX, GigaVPS, and more. The nice thing about Solaris: the system doesn't change too rapidly, so the documentation doesn't need to change either.

On a SmartOS container, Rails and Postgres can be installed from the package manager and automatically configured as a service. Running a Docker image on Joyent Triton cloud is just a one-line CLI command.

SmartOS is built for the cloud, and is usually semi-managed by the provider. If it's worth your effort to run a separate SmartOS cluster, you'd know. But there is also Project FIFO for that:
