It's not mismanagement, its basically competition for students by increasing features the only way you can: by lower faculty/student ratio (higher more teachers, not always better), and making the facilities as nice and new as possible. The next problem driving up costs, is that states have lowered funding for higher ed since the great recession, since schools can raise tuition to cover the gap. Overall, it's all these problems combined, plus some demographic on coming demographic shifts, that are driving up the cost of higher ed. It's definitely not mismanagement!

This probably isn't the technical explanation your looking for, but, in general, processes on Windows and processes on Unix aren't the same--or, at least, they're not meant to be used the same way. Creating lots of small processes on Windows has long been discouraged and considered poor design, whereas the opposite is true on Unix.

One could probably argue that processes on Windows need to be lighter-weight now that sandboxing is a common security practice. These days, programs like web browsers opt to create a large number of processes both for security and stability purposes. In much the same way that POSIX should deprecate the fork model, Windows should provide lighter-weight processes.
Before ASP came out, I wrote a DLL to connect IIS to VB5/6 applications. I was also the VB guide on The Mining Company (which became about.com around 1997). This was enough of a resume that I was awarded the title MVP for IIS/ASP. I got a watch, notepad and pen. Seemed pretty cool for an 18 year old in smalltown Ontario.

Eventually, they announced that VB6 was the end of the line for COM and VB.net was VB in name alone. I was one of about 100 MVPs that signed a petition encouraging MSFT to keep VB moving forward as a parallel product. "No, and stop asking" was the reply.

Fast forward a few years, and I saw the original DHH "Build a blog in 15 minutes with Ruby on Rails" video. What I saw didn't even seem possible. I knew that it was going to be a big deal, and the next day my friends and I cofounded the first Rails consultancy in the world circa Fall 2004. This led to my first Mac Mini, and deploying to Linux. Today I only boot into Windows to do VR and hologram stuff.

I haven't thought about my MVP certificate in over a decade, but I'm confident that it exists in a box. I'm honestly a little shocked to know that it's been going all this time.

> trying to compete with the credentialing system of universities

Which gets even more difficult when places like Georgia Tech are offering fully accredited Masters of Science in Comp Sci programs, delivered fully online, for a grand total of $7500 in tuition.

I don't think any sort of 'certificate' or accreditation approach was the right strategy for them. I was probably their prime candidate for paid certs -- I am a lawyer who self-studied CS for 4 years and just recently successfully switched careers to software dev. I took so many online courses -- Coursera, edX, MIT's OpenCourseWare, Stanford's online courses. In every interview I had, the interviewers were impressed by the fact I took such a variety of courses (I listed them on my resume, underneath my "real" education history.)

But not a single one ever even asked if I had obtained any sort of certificates from them. No one cared, not even for a second. The whole story you want to tell when you go this way is, "I got the practical learning and experience I needed; I didn't go for an official degree because I felt the piece of paper wasn't worth the money." The proof (for potential employers) that you succeeded is in your abilities -- specifically, your portfolio of personal projects you create and are ready to present. Taking all those online courses shows initiative, curiosity, passion for the field; a certificate of any sort from some place like Udacity means less than nothing.

Would it have mattered any more if it was accredited by some accrediting body? My intuition says no. Employers feel comfortable relying on traditional degrees because they're, well, traditional. There's the whole cultural significance of them, and of the experience of attending a four year program. But, right or wrong, the value of these degrees comes from the school name. Is it a nationally known school? Or a regionally known one? Is it a school in the city that your interviewer (or their coworkers) attended? But if you come to them with some accredited papers from Udacity, there is going to be a very wide respectability gap that will have to be crossed.

It's not an inspiring approach, but I can't help but feel like a bland subscription model is probably the best they could have done. Maybe they could have become Google's Pluralsight or something. I think there's still definitely room for 'disruption' in the online education space, but I think it's probably going to look and feel a lot more like traditional higher ed than many might have thought 5 years ago -- even to the extent that I think we'll see traditional schools leading the way, because those traditional schools come to the starting block already carrying a lot of cachet. Why pay for a piece of paper if the name at the top means nothing?

They’re not mentioned in the article, but org-mode does have syntax for source blocks (a little uglier than Commonmark/Github-flavor markdown’s blocks in my opinion, but it does the same thing and works well).

Effectively you: "do not talk about this instance of someone having it bad as long as other people have it bad too".
I'm a bit rusty on this but from memory the overhead is by and large specific to the Win32 environment. Creating a "raw" process is cheap and fast (as you'd reasonably expect), but there's a lot of additional initialisation that needs to occur for a "fully-fledged" Win32 process before it can start executing.

Beyond the raw Process and Thread kernel objects, which are represented by EPROCESS + KPROCESS and ETHREAD + KTHREAD structures in kernel address space, a Win32 process also needs to have:

- A PEB (Process Environment Block) structure in its user address space

- An associated CSR_PROCESS structure maintained by Csrss (Win32 subsystem user-mode)

- An associated W32PROCESS structure for Win32k (Win32 subsystem kernel-mode)

I'm pretty sure these days the W32PROCESS structure only gets created on-demand with the first creation of a GDI or USER object, so presumably CLI apps don't have to pay that price. But either way, those latter three structures are non-trivial. They are complicated structures and I assume involve a context switch (or several) at least for the Csrss component. At least some steps in the process also involve manipulating global data structures which block other process creation/destruction (Csrss steps only?).

I expect all this Win32 specific stuff largely doesn't apply to e.g. the Linux subsystem, and so creating processes should be much faster. The key takeaway is its all the Win32 stuff that contributes the bulk of the overhead, not the fundamental process or thread primitives themselves.

EDIT: If you want to learn more, Mark Russinovich's Windows Internals has a whole chapter on process creation which I'm sure explains all this.
Section 6: REPLACING FORK

> Alternative: clone().

> This syscall underlies all process and thread creation on Linux. Like Plan 9’s rfork() which preceded it, it takes separate flags controlling the child’s kernel state: address space, file descriptor table, namespaces, etc. This avoids one problem of fork: that its behaviour is implicit or undefined for many abstractions. However, for each resource there are two options: either share the resource between parent and child, or else copy it. As a result, clone suffers most of the same problems as fork (§4–5).
I definitely agree that the intentions of the ruling elite will be formalized into nice-sounding theories, irrespective of their faithfulness to reality or their utility outside of supporting the system of rule. Marxism for example

and you can replace ruling elite, with people who want to be that. Then you get notions like identity politics, feminism, cultural Marxism, misandry, racism.

There's an interesting second order effect here as well, that drives the narrative aggression and dissent shaming today. Democracies need to create as many of these competing theories as they can to keep people locked in constant conflict and division.
thats not the question you have to ask though.

your cpus arent capable of 32 bit calculations anymore... so the questions is: is the software emulation of your OS for 32 bit more efficient than the programming language overprovisions.

Or, treat this student as an individual and a real person, learn to not talk so condescendingly about others, and encourage this person to make constructive and better use of their rare and unique intellectual capabilities and work ethic.

It really doesn't. Microsoft employs a guy named Dave Cutler who is credited with leading the development of Windows NT in the late 80s/early 90s. They hired him from DEC, where he... is credited with co-leading a research project that later became VMS. If you go look at OpenVMS programming manuals, you will see process creation calls (e.g. SYS$CREPRC, LIB$SPAWN) that look and behave a lot like CreateProcess().

I think it's well-known that Windows NT took a lot of ideas from VMS.

I don't think we should ever forget how MS behaved through the mid 2000s. But we don't live in that world anymore, they aren't (capable of being) that company anymore, and I think we're at a point where dismissing research because of a connection to MS is not protecting anyone from anything.

Oracle has done a lot for Java, which has stagnant under Sun, is a member of the community since 1996 when they presented alongside Sun the NC running a Java based OS, and besides IBM no one else cared about Sun's future.

I would be a little bit careful Monday Morning quarterbacking this: the story is a reflection a her narrative told to a friend, not the reasons for the decisions as she made them. There's can be a lot lost in translation when communicating the decision process around major life events, and tendency to fit everything into a retrospective narrative: i.e. I'm 'here now', and the last thing didn't work out, because i wanted to be 'here now'

Maybe it really helps Amazon that their cloud offering has a separate brand and is pretty much distinct of Amazon. From my experience, few people think of Amazon's other products when evaluating AWS.

Similar with Azure, it's closely linked to Microsoft but still a distinct brand.

Maybe it would've helped Google to name their Cloud product with a name that doesn't contain Google.

I took their Self-driving car Nanodegree and it was hands down the best online course I've ever taken in my life (and I took some crazy courses from MIT and Stanford). Where else could you end up with a capstone of actually programming a real self-driving car that is then running your code on some course in Mountain View?

Offerings right now:

1. If you want academic rigor only, go with edX

2. If you want academic rigor and some more approachable/practical courses, go with Coursera; or if you want to do full MS/MBA/MSA online (they have the widest selection right now comparing to edX/Udacity)

3. If you want unique practical skills in hot areas like self-driving/flying cars, deep (reinforcement) learning etc. without fully committing to rigorous practices, go with Udacity

4. If you need anything else, go with Udemy, Masterclass, School of AI and similar

I feel like the designers of the test have to take more blame here. Having a test that was "just show us once and that's it" seems like a really bad test design.

Randomly testing vehicles after they've been produced should have always been part of the testing strategy. Shouldn't have been relying on a random researcher to catch them.

Probably valid points about RAM. But in the end, productivity is all that matters, after all. If electron app will be slow, you won't be productive and will probably not use the software.

I cannot see being productive in Notepad++ as I am with Code.

I cannot say that VS Code is slow. Yes, for quick viewing random files, I prefer to open in Notepad++ which is already opened and opens new files instantly. VS Code I prefer for projects, but sometimes ad-hoc files too.
This deserves a little expansion - Org Mode makes the reasonable-in-context assumption that the user is familiar with Emacs.

France emits 90% less CO2/kWh than Germany (they didn't even need renewables to achieve that, just nuclear): http://environmentalprogress.org/big-news/2017/2/11/german-e...

And according to https://www.hsdl.org/?abstract&did=801297 CO2 emissions per kWh have already decreased 2.58%/year between 2005 and 2016 (-25% over 11 years). That's already far better than the 1.60%/year I assumed (-80% over 100 years), further strengthening my point that these Nature authors' assumption that CO2/kWh will never improve in 100 years is utterly unrealistic.
The New Microsoft is just PR due to the fact they are not the top dog anymore.

Last I checked, and admittedly it's been a while, parsing full org-mode syntax outside Emacs itself is a nightmare. It's essentially cloning whatever version of org-mode you have in mind.

I agree with most parts of the paper.

Fork() is now basically the root of a looong list of special cases in so many aspects of programming. Things get even worse when you use a language with built-in runtime such as Golang for which multi-threaded programming the default behaviour. If fork() can't even handle multiple threads, what is the real point of having it when a 8 core 16 threads AMD processor is about $150 each.
I could go on, but I don't miss the bygone USENET C vs Pascal flamewars, so let's leave it here.
>org-mode is standardized

Last I looked into it (mainly with interest for vim), few if any parsers/tooling exist for it outside of emacs; as I recall, people claimed that it apparently has sufficient (undocumented/poorly specified) quirks in the emacs implementation that 100% reproduction is difficult; similar to implementing vim-mode for editor plugins

In which case, its only as standardized as the one implementation; which is exactly how standardized markdown started with (the perl implementation)

> But is there a fundamental benefit of composition over inheritance in ever circumstance?

I don't have much time now, but a fundamental difference is that inheritance happens at compile time (it's rare/nonexistent that you can change the class hierarchy at runtime) while composition happens at runtime – this means that with composition one can change the behavior of a class at runtime by inserting in a field a different implementation of an interface, for example.
