How many code bases have you worked with that don't bother enforcing some type of standard with spacing/usage of tabs, indentation, variable names, method names, import order etc? People don't typically view those rules/conventions as nitpicky. Why should that change with commit messages?

I really like this talk of his, he was an amazing speaker: "Computing: The first 100 years" https://youtu.be/itKFrXghGuA
Can you elaborate on why ?
And I never understand what is a "measurement". Has it something to do with a human being observing it? Isn't any measurement just electromagnetic or gravitation forces acting on it, which act all the time?
Try using the model with a very high down payment. At 50% of property value, your gains are equivalent to the 7% baseline. Beyond that, the property makes significantly less than the stock market. If you pay 100% up front, you end up making half what the stock market does.

In other words, the gains shown by this model are coming from leverage, not from the underlying asset. Leveraged investments always return more, but with higher risk. That's true in the housing market as well as the stock market.
It's 100GB compressed. Parquet does a very good job of compressing most data so that's where the estimate of 10x (so 1TB) uncompressed was mentioned as a rule of thumb.

Parquet also supports much better access mechanisms, like being able to deserialize a single column without having to read in entire rows.

But like you mentioned, 1TB of data in a traditional database isn't that bad.
There is something I don't understand.

From the contents of the "attachment A" it seems like the FBI (or whatever other US agency) "sat" on the code they indirectly purchased for 2-3 years (the UPAS) and for several months (the KRONOS), observing the behaviour of Hutchins and "Vinny" and collecting evidence against them.

Shouldn't they have somehow acted to prevent the spreading of the malwares?
This is only one aspect, admittedly crucial as ecosystem management is a leading motive. But there are many other technical advances. One aspect is rampant bloat in today's apps, as each often duplicates a significant part of the OS.

In Fuchsia apps are collaborative by nature as the OS itself manages the user. Apps get to fill slots in story lines and so can be a seamless part of a bigger task, which can involve online resources. Along with a better user experience, app sizes might well go down 80%.

If successfully executed, it represents a paradigm shift reminiscent of the transition from DOS to Windows: it becomes much easier to realize a engaging and satisfying user experience.
I got into Go a few years ago after alphago made headlines, played online and went to local meetups. Only made it to around 9k, but had some fun.

It was pretty addictive. I didn't have a natural ability for reading, but could make some progress by leaning joseki and reading books. The amount of practice required to progress further than this can become substantial, modulo natural talent.

It's funny how when playing someone who really knows how to read, they can break all the "established rules" and make you look silly by simply out fighting you, if you aren't as strong.

The only people who were supportive or seemed interested in my playing Go were already Go players. Players I met online and in real life were very friendly.

Friends and family in my social circle were not supportive of this choice, though. They seemed to think it odd and probably introverted, like someone loosing themselves in chess, so I stopped playing.
> Commit messages are a poor place to document code because they don't stay with the code.

They actually do stay with the code only as long as the code is present in the code base. The code can be updated independently of its associated comment, but the associated commit message will change.
This is what I meant. This is in no way related to kustomize or what it does. One is to make hierarchical templated deployment files, while the other is to connect and interact with the API server. The client library is more analogous to kubectl, which consumes yamls.
Just the idea that I can file a warrant for anyone in the area... that screams overreach. I can’t believe courts grant that kind of warrant, let alone that anyone would ever comply with it.

Say what you will about Google, Apple, Microsoft, et al... they’ve at least stood up to unreasonable NSLs and the like over the years. This kind of wipes out all of that goodwill, though.
I don't buy the "incompatible with society" argument. It just sounds like an excuse not to help them. If you were in their shoes you would probably go crazy too.

Well SQL would present the ETL declaratively for one ... whether the output is denormalised or unconstrained has nothing to do with SQL.
Heartlessness isn’t a factor here. At least individually I’d say that people over here are way more indifferent towards the homeless. There is very little enthusiasm in terms of volunteering and such.
After a few bad experiences, I only call the restaurany directly to order now. A lot of these apps show choices that the restaurants may not have and they end up giving you an inferior substitute. If I have a good experience, I often just stick with that restaurant/order forever since I know its reliable.

That's a fair point. I thought of that too when posting.

I believe you need to consider both angles:

Just a spectator to this conversation, ordinary web developer over here, would anyone care to explain to me what form a “pipeline” takes? Is it a server endpoint? I really have no idea.
What do you mean by index? This is what I think of when I hear "index":

https://yeelight.readthedocs.io/en/latest/yeelight.html

Rust does the same, as far as I've seen (although the docs are a bit too index-heavy). Do you mean something different?
Huh. When I first looked at it my reaction was, "this is stupid!", which I've figured out over the years is my inner-ape reacting to the alien, and is an indication that something is the opposite of stupid. So I read more about it and it seems really cool - possibly too much for most people, but that makes it even more interesting! Thanks for pointing it out!
This sounds like a version of the birthday paradox. The chance that two Skittles packs are identical is very small, and the chance that a Skittles pack is identical to at least one pack in a large group is still small. However, the chance that an identical pair exists in a large group is not small.
ML family languages (like Haskell) had proper type inference for decades now. And yes, integrating that with your editor/IDE is a good idea.

Depending on what you want to do, you might also want to start with the types and have the computer figure out the implementation.

> It might even not show you types as code at all and by default and overlay/add this info only on request.

Types annotations are often are great documentation, and there's a lot of practical knowledge in the ML communities about what types annotations to show in the source for helping with understand and debugging and which ones to leave out as clutter.

I wrote 'proper type inference' above, because it's much more powerful than the watered down version Go and C++ give you. See eg https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8447280 for a Rust example.
One sensor I can imagine is of utmost value in an emergency response robot (besides for temperature and visibility) would be for detecting electrical currents on the wet surfaces through its caterpillar tracks before human firefighters enter the area.

Food delivery was broken - only a few restaurants did it. Now almost all of them can do it. That is truly disruptive. Does it suck sometime?

Electrical coops are a good solution and in many cases, there are such organizations other than the incumbents who are better suited than the city to build and run operations. I’ve been in the fiber business for a long time (though never for an incumbent). There have been numerous times in my experience where cities and incumbents have such a poor relationship that managers within the cities start to convince themselves it can’t be that hard - we are just talking a few miles of fiber. And yet for every misinformed city manager who thinks they can do it all, there’s one who seems to be able to make fiber work. I guess if I were at the state level, would I want cities to just run around deploying tax dollars Standing up telco operations when we have generally decided in the US that telecom is a private enterprise? Cities tend to make short term decisions that aren’t always the best - take for example the reluctance of cities to share resources with adjacent cities (fire, police, schools). That said whenever a hole is dug I don’t think it would hurt to drop fiber in it. Having reasonable incentives for civil and private works projects to be dual purpose would help to propagate fiber. In combination with reasonable rules for access and build backs this would generally help the situation.
Life is short and Joe went much younger than one would expect.

The alternative view is that those so-called 'dynamically typed' or 'untyped' languages should really be called 'monotyped languages' since all variables and expressions have the same type: a giant union of all possibilities.

Anyone with the original document can eyeball individual pages and confirm that they (or black bars of the right size) appear in the redacted version.

There seems to be some confusion here, in no small part due to the title of this article. But...

> kustomize lets you customize raw, template-free YAML files for multiple purposes, leaving the original YAML untouched and usable as is.

That's the very first line of Kustomize's README[1].

Kustomize is not a templating DSL. The conversations here mocking templating DSLs are not relevant.

The next sentence[1]:

> kustomize targets kubernetes; it understands and can patch kubernetes style API objects. It's like make, in that what it does is declared in a file, and it's like sed, in that it emits editted text.

Kustomize is a patching framework. It takes valid k8s resources, and allows you patch them, with partial k8s resources. The entire point of Kustomize to not invent something new.

It's not a bad exercise. In a Unix class I took, we had to implement an RDBMS using only the traditional Unix software tools. A little later, for work, I had to learn to write highly portable and fairly secure shell scripts.

A few reasons to do exercises like this:

* To understand the Unix software tools and Bourne/etc. shell scripting models. There are good lessons, and also examples of what not to do (or the tradeoffs), which I don't think you'll find anywhere else. (For example, the simple Unix streams model is very powerful, and also often used in very kludgey ways in practice, and the Bourne evaluation model is probably much worse and dangerous than a beginner might think.)

* Knowing how to do things with just shell scripts is great for some kinds of bootstrapping, commands in build tools, or other situations in which you can only assume a shell interpreter and possibly certain command-line tools.

* Handy for configuring your interactive shell to do what you want.

* It's one way to familiarize with parts of a Unix-ish system that you might not normally, especially if you're spending all your time learning your way around huge stacks of tools that obscure the lower-level mechanics.

* You'll appreciate Perl and other languages much more, in some ways.
>>Money for low-income housing and social service programs has dwindled for decades.

This is not true. Money for low-income housing and social services has massively increased over the last 40 years.

The problem is, this approach is not working. The state psychiatric hospitals were closed because of the deinstitutionalization movement which was strongly supported by advocates of the mentally ill.

Now they don't want to acknowledge the consequences of that advocacy, and keep blaming the phantom menace of austerity and social spending cuts.
ELMs are just neural nets with random hidden weights. This idea has been around since the 60's before being rebranded to get unoriginal papers published.

This is equivalent to a low-rank Fourier approximation of Gaussian process regression (also known as random features) for some kernel. Random kitchen sink approximations are similar, but better performing since the weight value distribution actually has theoretical justification. RKS is a really great way to use approximate Gaussian process regression on larger datasets.

Nice. Some questions:

- How are you modeling property tax payments?

- Would be nice to show the annual return for the investment. You have a chart, I can read it so see whether I'd do better than the market, but would be nice to show '13.4% return', vs. a dollar amount after some time period.

- Are you modeling tax benefits at all? Mortgage interest, property taxes, maintenance costs and depreciation all impact the net return for the investor. This would be hard to model since the tax situation changes by individual investor and local tax rates.

- Have you contemplated whether the investor is self-managing or hires a property manager (perhaps included in the annual 1% expenses?)

One thing that I'd also like the landing page to clarify: where are reminders stored? Email of course is still on Google's servers, but given that reminders are not present in Gmail, that's an open question.
IMO if you're working with large, multi-dimensional arrays and seamless parallelization (shared or distributed memory) is a plus, I've yet to see a language or framework do it with less effort. Speaking as a long-time numpy user and fan here. :)

For an example of use in production, my business [0] is built around running ~1M lines of parallel Fortran (public domain code) in the cloud. There are many many other uses but tend to be less visible -- under the hood of other software, banking systems, many DOE and DOD projects etc.

... also remembering that a traditional dB will typically not store data raw. Row compression is normal and disk compression is normal . The typical column store advantage is block compression, predicate pushdown and column order storage.
Even with that approach, I’m not sure there’s enough room for everyone to take the recommended stand breaks.
I don't think mutability is a concern if your goal is to get a bidi map between strings and (mutable) _instances_; i.e. if you just want to use the reference to the dict itself as the hash rather than the contents of the dict itself.

Deinstitutionalization was not driven by taxpayers. Taxpayers have been fighting a losing war against growing social spending since 1913, and particularly since 1965. It was sociologists and other social commentators who considered it a form of oppression that drove the movement.
I think a lot of hidden variables theories have been discredited.
