I'm not aware of a bug in how synapse signs events, and whilst it's possible there's a bug there, we can't fix stuff which we're unaware of which hasn't been disclosed. (Max would probably claim he can't disclose because he's been banned from our Github for consistently being obstructive; unfortunately this is a case in point).

Edit: he might be talking about https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4787? Except that was fixed a month ago...

In terms of "don't blindly believe what a for-profit is saying, especially one that is in full control of the said protocol", I'd agree, were it true. However:

* These days the protocol is controlled entirely by the non-profit Matrix Foundation.

* The majority (3 out of 5) of the Foundation's directors have zero affiliation to New Vector, the company that the core Matrix set up to try to keep the project funded.

* The governance of the foundation & protocol is entirely open, as per https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/matthew/msc177...

* We're announcing the final board once formally appointed; due in the next few weeks.

Meanwhile, it's also true to say that you shouldn't believe the skewed perspective of a disgruntled ex-community member with a chip on their shoulder, who is trying to plug their hostile fork: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19473694.
How many people on this thread actually are google?
>I'm interested to know why they didn't move to Google AppEngine instead, which offers a better experience and more advanced features overall. Especially considering that AppEngine is a direct competitor to Heroku than Kubernetes engine.

AppEngine has an enormous number of limitations that you only hit once you scale up and gets very expensive very quickly.
They mistakenly invited a conservative, so certainly there was no way that the body could remain constituted.
Agreed in general, but the thing is... children can't generally enter contracts or otherwise "consent" to most things in a legal context. True that parents can be stand-ins sometimes, but I'm not at all clear on what the limits for that are.

I too was initially confused by the "or other movable thing" part, but I'm pretty sure the the cell phone itself qualifies as a movable thing in this context.
It's a shame that the article is stuck behind a paywall.
How to make a machine learning website from scratch to understand ML
Interesting, /r/the_donald, which has, and continues to this day, explicitly called for perpetrating violence on minorities, people with opposing political views, democratic politicians, etc. etc ad nauseum, remains up and running to this day.

It is far and away worse than fph and incels in terms of content, but for some mystical reason that's totally not /u/spez vetoing any attempt to reign it in due to his conservative ideology, it has missed the banhammer.

Complete political whims.
Better x86 Assembly Generation with Go
Maybe if you're building the nth monitoring dashboard or something. The work I find interesting is inherently uncertain, though.
Well, thank you this was a pretty good read. I'm volunteering in a small nonprofit and do believe we work on interesting stuff but when I try to reach out to the press I feel they are totally uninterested. (Most of the time... The state/public TV usually is more open to us)
Options trading is a skill. Poker is a much harder but I hate seeing people say options trading is gambling. You just need to find an advantage. I am not the most skilled developer, I definitely wouldn't get a job at a FANG with my skills, but I was able to build a strategy that works wonders for me with the skills I have. If people on here use their skill, they can play with the data, use TA, and find an edge, maybe better than mine.
Voodoo 1 and 2 were simple analog VGA pass-thru, they'd take over the VGA output when in use. I don't think the VGA input was even wired to anything other than the pass-thru switch, you may be thinking of something else. There was no such conversion.
Curious about where you would put your DO data. A cheap VPS from DO doesn't come with much storage. You can either buy more storage for $$ or use DO Spaces for fewer $, but do Spaces talk to PostgresQL? I apologize for my ignorance; I'm just beginning to explore this stuff.
My favorite is when they say "not supported" and it's easy to make it work and is just their way of scaring Enterprise customers to their bread & butter. (One example that comes to mind is a bunch of Rigol oscilloscopes that, even though they have FPGA's on them, can still have more functionality enabled with resistors.)
If the author called it planning then everyone would realize that they had already heard of it...

People might also realize that with every additional step of reasoning the chance that you got it right decays exponentially.
If the world was fair they should all (decision makers at Boeing and FAA both) be packed by the lot and send to stand trial in Ethiopia and Indonesia for 300+ murder, which is what I consider this to be.

If you don't have food in your belly and you steal you get jailed. You are not satisfied with your million dollar salary and your billion dollar company profit and don't care if people get killed, you get to have PR firm write how sorry and sincere you are. Justice seems truly blind so many times just not in the way the phrase was coined.
I've never managed to wrap my head around prolog but I'd say SQL bugs me for the same reason. Care to throw out some examples?
It's a different car, but still arguably a safer one. Every part in the 737 MAX is either the same or newer and improved over the previous 737 series. While they should have gone through far more scrutiny in the certification process, the 737 MAX, viewed holistically, is a newer, more modern aircraft that will be safer than older aircraft once the kinks are fixed.
"Microsoft is also going to offer a new dashboard so that the status of the feature update can be more easily ascertained. […] The new dashboard should make it much easier to discover what known issues and incompatibilities exist, along with the remedial action that can be taken (e.g. upgrading a particular piece of software) to unblock the update."

Aurora Postgres is pretty fantastic.
The problem is the increment operator now gives two possible answers to a++. This can't be done without relying on some notion of state. That state has to be stored somewhere.

The distinction you're looking for is "does this operator store the information required for idempotence in the output value, or is it stored elsewhere?" If it's stored in the output value, good. If it's stored elsewhere the operator is not a pure function.

In which case your complain doesn't actually have anything to do with idempotence. Your complaint is that the function which is claiming to be idempotent is not even a function.

You can't claim your code has the property f(f(x)) = f(x), if your code doesn't even have the property f(x) = f(x).

Worse: even if the person (or organization) providing the binary is well-meaning, they would need some serious resources (mostly programmers) to provide security updates quickly enough.

The least resource-intensive way to provide attack-resistance near the level provided by Google's Chrome team would probably be to notify the user when a vulnerability is disclosed so that the user can either switch to Chrome or restrict their browsing to safe sites till the binary provider can get a security update out.

I know of no one doing that or providing timely security updates however except Google, possibly Opera, possibly Brave and probably some day soon Microsoft.
Yep, keep your stuff portable and you can always migrate to AWS/Azure/etc. later if your personal project should turn into something bigger.
> The functional people have been able to hammer Rust into a functional language, sort of. Now they want a Haskell-like "do" construct so they can get imperative sequentiality back. Is that right?

Not really, in that even before the blog gets to do notation, it depends on features that don't exist yet: generic associated types, which are RFC-accepted but not yet implemented, and associated traits, which haven't even been proposed. For now the whole thing is just a sketch. However, since associated traits aren't critical to the design (and would be a good feature to add anyway), at least some version of it will presumably be implementable in the future.

Overall, Rust has always been inspired by functional languages to some extent, e.g. Rust traits are based on Haskell typeclasses, and Rust has pattern matching and full type inference. But I don't see `Monad` ever becoming idiomatic. I also don't see `do` notation being accepted, because its use cases largely overlap with other features, namely async/await and generators.

On the other hand, it would require only minor changes to generators to allow implementing `do` notation on top of them, something I'm highly interested in mainly just because I want to prove it's possible. ;p
how about an article on the 3dlabs glint 500tx? I lusted for one of those to run my 3d software...
This closely mirrors my own thesis on genius.

There are first level, direct thinkers. This is the lower 50% of all people, although everyone is capable of it. It is direct and without irony, sarcasm, or self reflection. Think slapstick comedy, or superhero movies.

The second level is in 4th wall breaking, analogy, simile, anything which takes "getting" the joke beyond the purely visual. Most people who consider themselves "smart" fall here. About the 50th to 90th percentile of intelligence/creativity.

Third level is hard to describe with words by it's nature. It's all about indirection. Not making an analogy, but taking the analogy for granted and riffing off of that. Most truly genius artists, comedians, musicians, scientists, etc. live at this level. Think the comedy of someone like Dave Chappelle, the music of Bob Dylan, or scientists like Stephen Hawking.

The fourth level is unattainable for humans as a constant state. The very best third level people can just barely get glimpses of it, and bring those glimpses back down for us to see. These are our all time great works of art, and generational scientific breakthroughs. Picasso, Bach, and Einstein are the archetypes here. But what we (the second level masses) are able to see is just a projection, like a 3 dimensional representation of a 4 dimensional shape. The effect is still mind-blowing, but unless you're at that 3rd level it's impossible to really conceive its' true nature. Genius is in the ability to translate those brief fleeting glimpses of the 4th level by a 3rd level person into something intelligible by the 2nd and 1st.
Is standard more expensive in reality? Any data on this, flex is certainly very expensive
Not exactly meaningfully harder for a computer to do one than the other.

Probably the thing to do is work backwards from the resources that are available to investigate them. Then just skim off that many outliers. Do it until it's not saving the company more money than it takes to pay those people.

Of course, that implies that Apple has anyone to look at them, which it may not, and is probably the first problem...

Posting this with a new account, as there could be repercussions otherwise. The thing is that the committer (Andres) has a not so good track record on his features, leading to a very long tail of continuous bugs.

I think that this is going to be a very rocky time for Postgres, even without additional pluggable storage being made available. If anyone else had made these commits, I'd be a bit more optimistic, but given Andres' track record, I'm not so sure.
Building a plane is a more challenging task than testing it.

As a developer, I can say the same about writing software. Yet, my software is not likely to kill people and comes with no warranties whatsoever.

In this scenario, we should make sure the test engineers are even more competent than design engineers. We can't rely on designers to thoroughly test what they build.
I do think the complacency issue might be a component here. Humans tend to quickly accept recent history as "normal" and over time forget the lessons learned by past disasters.

"Those who don't remember history are doomed to repeat it"

It's been a couple of decades I think, maybe more, since an engineering screwup affected a passenger airliner like this. You could argue that the 787 LiIon battery thermal runaway thing was a red flag. That also resulted in an FAA grounding, but that was fairly easily remedied and nobody died.
Casino is throwing money away or a way to entertain yourself for a few $K, except for Poker which is highly skilled. Trading is a skill. I lost more money in all the above scenarios compared to most people.
They talk about a 4 year timespan. The Oculus Kickstarter was in 2012. DK1 was released in 2013, DK2 in 2014, and the final Rift in 2016. The Rift-S is rumored to be released in 2019. None of those have had quite the leaps 3d did back in the late 90s.
There's also Brave browser.
You may want to ask the OP how much time she/he has been working at Amazon instead.
For some reason those blogs become boring. Whoever moves to Kubernetes, or chooses to use some service of major cloud provider feels a need to write a blog about it having a same theme as everyone else.

Bonus points if it explains what containers are and differences between EKS, ECS and others.
I tried to replicate this benchmark on threadripper 2950x, 16 cores, 32gb 3000mhz 14cl, samsung 860 nvme, XFS.

I was never able to achive more than 3100 tps, even with -march=native -O3 -flto, large wal and shared_buffers, without selinux and THP - I was always bottlenecked by 1 progres process staying in IOWait.

I moved data directory to ramdisk and got:
[pgbench -c10 -j 2]:
progress: 60.0 s, 26819.3 tps, lat 0.371 ms stddev 0.119.
with LA of mere 4.

A significant amount of medical academia is definitely concerned with upstream causes, especially since a great deal of overall mortality these days is from cancers and heart disease, where impeding the upstream causes can have a large affect on overall mortality rates. This in some ways contrasts with a perspective where people fall ill primarily to infections and it is primarily the role of medicine to identify and cure those.

Even when an upstream cause for an issue is infective, (for example the young adult deaths from Rhuematic Fever in my country, New Zealand), there are many further upstream causes such as the level of insulation in housing, socioeconomic deprivation, the level of access to primary care physicians, access to transport, etc.

A crucial issue is whether the healthcare and economic system are geared to encourage or discourage addressing the most strongly associated upstream causes that are identified. In countries with established government-funded healthcare systems, options like public health campaigns and legislation are considered as tools that can potentially be brought to bear on these issues. In other countries where government-funded healthcare is not a norm, these options are less emphasised. In a system oriented towards private healthcare, often the approach leans more reactive than proactive, eg likely to be initiated as the response to a costly court ruling.
Even smart engineers ultimately have a product manager who makes the call. Many times before I've been on projects where the team said we should not do something in a particular way only for a product manager or their superior to say no, we'll do this as it aligns with company goals or "we'll come back and fix it later".

Then you either have to put up and do it or you'll be strategically moved elsewhere or be managed out of the job.
How did this ahole seriously have courage to give this speech? Unbelievable, I will never set foot on a 737 Max again. And avoid other Boeing models if I can.
How would it not run faster, given that otherwise CPU had to shoulder the rendering entirely, in addition to everything else? Even high-end CPUs at the time would struggle with that, especially with resolution and bit depth being equal. IIRC the original Quake didn't even allow more than 256 colors in software rendering for this purpose, and even then I recall having to run it in weird resolutions like 400x300 to get framerates comparable to what Voodoo owners had for 640x480x16bit.
Rant:

I imagine that you, posting this story, or even some reading this thread, are doing so with the sentiment that "oh no, these unfortunate long time residents are being displaced", and that some cruel unfeeling capitalist society is allowing this travesty to happen. "How can we let big tech keep on doing this to our region??"

You, who are likely one of the many tech workers in the Bay Area, should be cheering every development project like this. You should be cheering when cities start to free up housing and make it available to people who want to move here, or are already here and can't find anything affordable. Even if those people buying the houses are making "big tech salaries", you should be for it.

Stop being blinded by the symbolic cases of the anti-gentrification sentiment, that the elderly widow is being forced out of her home to make way for ungrateful young tech workers. For every 1 of those stories, there are 50 families trying to make a new life in the area, unable to find a house for less than $1M or $6000/month in rent.

For every 1 of those stories, there are 10 families that have lived here for 40 years, and are sitting on empty houses, maybe even 2nd houses that are underutilized. They're the rich ones.

For every person occupying a rent controlled home, that's one unit of housing unavailable to someone else, and moreover, one additional unit of competition and higher prices imposed on everyone else who needs to find a place to live. Few among us will ever get to have the benefit of a rent controlled apartment.

Everyone reading here has some degree of numeracy and literacy better than average. Think about the numbers, not symbols -- and don't let yourself fall into the trap of thinking that the news is good at reporting the deeper story.

And think about what kind of system you want to incentivize when you vote or support knee-jerk policies. How does a region / city renew itself and make sure that it doesn't stagnate and turn into a place only for those people who got there first, screw everyone who comes afterwards? By ensuring that people with rent-controlled housing never have to leave? By tying up development for decades?

I take the side of the majority who no one feels comfortable speaking up for. The thousands of young people and families who want to live, work, and be productive here. Not those who already got theirs and want to keep the rest out. Time for them to move on, and if they need a nudge, it's well past due.
This is understandable for high density urban areas but makes no sense for most of the country.

i just signed up for a trial of salesforce and at least when there's not much data in the account it doesnt seem too slow. i was going off of what some coworkers related to me from past experience.

i think it's expected that if you're doing some editing/reporting/exporting en masse, then a couple seconds could be okay (assuming it's thousands or tens of thousands of records, not a hundred). but not for single-record actions / interactions.
>Why are you dismissing the data the report contains indicating that the flight crew was unable to trim manually, that the column forces were incredibly high

Where is that data in the report?
The very existence of this research puzzles me. When I got a cat, I named him "kot" (a male cat in Russian), cause I thought he wouldn't remember it, so why bother. But he learnt it in a week. I just made my own research, for the sake of this comment: said "Petya", "Idi syuda, durak" and "kot", and sure enough, after the third call he came, sat beside me, and is now watching the screen.
It was even worse with Unreal, especially when you saw the live intro somewhere. That money could buy this was unexpected - even after Q1 and Q2 - and amazing.

Airbus had similar issues a while back. The software was forcing the nose of the plane down and the pilots had to fight with it to bring the plane out of a dive.

Is it absolutely necessary for the computer to be adjusting the angle of attack?

How do you arrive at such a conclusion? Have you researched regulatory agencies in EU? For example they just blocked a meeger between two massive train manufacturer. Your argument sounds like a weak libertarian talking point.
60% of new cars sold in Norway recently were EVs. That's a start, and a good one at that. I'd be highly doubtful that EVs won't continue to gain steam over the next decade, as VW, Porsche, Audi, Volvo, Ford, GM, and Toyota continue to expand EV production lines and models.
hype maybe? Got a backroom deal for the exposure? Oh, and you probably aren't netflix either. But they have a pretty severe case of vendor lock in now, will be interesting to see how it plays out. As of 2018 they spend 40 million on cloud services, 23 million of that on aws.

Do you think you are gonna get AWS's attention with that $10 s3 instance when something goes wrong?!? You will have negative leverage after signing up for vendor lock in.

> Do you mean just writing "find([ 1, 2, 3 ]) x: x > r" with explicit () and explicit variables? I agree that is easier to read, though the extreme terseness is also a feature..

Yes, amd yes it depends on the purpose. For learning, it can be impossible to parse; redundancy helps distinguish parts and provides a check you got it right.

OTOH for showcasing features, IMHO, the generality of : is a more impressive feature to demo.

Anyway, it's certainly intriguing! And maybe that's the true purpose of showcase code...
Funny enough, that exact scenario is covered in the certification exams too, and the correct answer is to do what you did. An ASG will fix too like another poster said, also.
