Actually, the view that Mathematics was "discovered" and not "invented" is quite popular among Mathematicians. There is an area of research called the Foundations of Mathematics, which investigates this question.

It's untrue that Mathematics does not undergo any refactoring -- in fact, it does: even in a field as new as Algebraic Geometry, the "classical" textbooks which build up the subject using ideals and varieties are very different from the modern ones which start from Scheme Theory.

Moreover, Category Theory shows that there is a beautiful underlying structure in all fields that can be extracted out into a new field. For example, the concept of adjunctions existed much before Category Theory was invented -- CT came along and showed that similar structures exist in Algebraic Topology, Algebraic Geometry, Differential Geometry, and other fields.
This article isn't about infosec at all. Instead it gives some general advice for avoiding analysis paralysis and choosing from among many options.

I'll stick with my two points. The OP claims that because animals exist in unusal places on Earth that there should be aliens who will visit us. The Fermi Paradox attempts to address why they might not. The possibility of a multidimensional universe addresses why nothing we experience on Earth is necessarily related to any kind of "physical reality," and that includes the existence of said strange animals and/or aliens.
I wonder how many honest GDPR responses actually indicate that....no actually that company doesn't have much data on you.
I'd say that a discussion and criticism by experts must be required, not really wide acceptance. In theoretical physics, there can be many competing models that could be hard to verify or proof wrong. "Science advances one funeral at a time", progress is made quite slowly to make everyone accept a new theory.
Edit: So, I'd like to see a peer-reviewed article by the author, and some responses by people in the field. That could be enough for a new theory.

> I don't need nice cars, yachts, mansions or expensive friends. I want to be able to rent in a reasonably pleasant place, and then have the rest of my life to pursue what keeps me interested.

That's what I always wanted. Enough that I never did anything long enough to get hugely wealthy from it. But hey, I still get to spend the rest of my life playing. I'm not sure that I'd recommend it as a career choice, but it's been interesting.
There was a somewhat common misconception that the limit was per person, not per policy.

Although, the distinction wasn't very meaningful because you could be denied for pre-existing conditions, so if you had hit a lifetime limit on one policy, good luck being able to get another one anywhere else.
Re: first half: I agree, but these are esl students, I'm dealing with not just teaching coding (which they are amazing at once they get the underlying fundamentals), but also the English language around it (code block, function, variable, heck even start function and move Sprite).

Re:second half: if live to teach them Java, but while the few advanced students are getting there, I need to find more real world applicable examples. Hence I'm looking more towards Lego mind storm or MakerBot.

I do agree with you though, I just need something in between. (Maybe I worded my post wrong, I'm sorry if that's the case).
Heroku mandates the use or 12Factor apps, which makes it much easier to migrate. They support docker as well. Pretty much every app I write I usually starts on Heroku and migrate later if the client / traffic needs it, and it’s always been seamless. Most apps have Dev/test on Heroku with a staging and production on AWS, and because of the 12 factor principles, which also work on Beanstalk / ECS / normal servers it’s never a problem.

Short answer: at the single cell stage there's a cilium that, spins in a single direction and establishes chirality. People with immotile cilia thus have a 50/50 chance of getting SI, because the developing body chooses randomly.
I do both at work, small sites on Heroku and big / compliance required ones on AWS, and the Heroku ones don’t need a devops team, while the AWS deployments do. Given the cost of building the devops teams and the time they spend, it is a big factor. Prefer to default to a Heroku unless there’s a clear cost benefit analysis that includes human and opportunity costs.

Dear God, please don't teach them Java! JavaScript (technically called ECMAScript but no one uses that term in casual conversation) is a very different language and unrelated to Java despite the similar name.

As far as ESL, all popular programming languages are based on English-language statements so the kids will have to deal with that regardless. Just explain to them what the language keywords mean in their own language.

I agree that it's necessary to do exercises in order to understand the subject, but I disagree that you need to have them checked by someone else -- in many cases, you should be check it for yourself, honestly.

Beyond the junior undergraduate level, computation-style problems go away, and you're just left with exercises that ask you to prove a certain something. It takes a long time to build up a sufficient degree of rigor, but it happens eventually -- I did go get some of my proofs checked by serious Mathematicians at some point, and it turned out that my intuition wasn't far behind.
Air pollution is, unfortunately, an issue with broader scope than just climate change, and the particular effects of the pollution that slowly killed this girl aren't related to it.

Do C++ and java actually pass messages? Java I have no clue, but I thought calling a member function in c++ is looking up a function pointer in a table or a vtable if inherited virtual.
IMO the biggest problem is that SQL joins don't scale on commodity hardware networks due to the CAP theorem, assuming you want availability. Network IO is a lot better these days, and per Scylla it can get to a pretty small instruction window, but still it isn't what XPoint and SSD crunch.

Database rearchitecture at the single node level can help optimize this, and maybe improve the megamachine SQL node to scale up to fatter sizes, but really big data is still a network IO and reliability challenge.

And it may be true we can pump a single fat node up to really huge throughput once some db rearchitecture fully leverages SSDs and I/O, but that just exposes more data to downtime if there is a network partition.

> the levels of bandwidth they're talking about are not going to be free at Cloudflare

Correct. Cloudflare's terms state that you can't serve a disproportionate/substantial amount of non-HTML content, so they would need to sign up for Enterprise with a full contract to get image serving via CF.

Enterprise is generally $5k+/month, but CF contracts can offer a subset of enterprise features from $500-$5k/month, so I would guess ~3k/month just to serve multiple petabytes of images. This doesn't eliminate the bandwidth costs so CF may not be the single solution for the bandwidth costs.
My dad saw something like that a long long time ago and we later found out it was a helicopter or small plane searching for weed grow sites. (Very common in our neck of the woods in the 90s and staggering waste of taxpayer resources)

Some atmospheric phenomenon that I don’t recall made it appear much closer than it actually was. (He was intrigued enough to talk to a friend who was an atmospheric science professor) In his case the repetition was the chopper flying box patterns to search.

I will concede that I have some friends who are Mathematicians who could provide me _some_ feedback. Besides, I did end up contacting a few serious Mathematicians at various points to get feedback on my exercises -- it was just at extraordinarily low levels, compared to coding.
Unless he had said otherwise, I'd think "it all went to me" is the default for the entirety of funds sent to him on a donation page on his own site with his name on it. Maybe he could have been more explicit that it was a salary for him to spend time on Requests, not some team, but that doesn't seem like something to demonize him over.

The article does raise some good concerns of whether he claimed on the donation page to work on things he wasn't personally going to do. I just think a few of the article's angles are pretty flawed and uncharitable.

Doulingo seems to be a solution to learning a language but it's only a tool to help you.

Even after a long time of using Duolingo most users will not have the ability to have a simple discussion.

The Pimsleur method is infinitely better for learning to speak a new languuage. With Pimsleur, you can learn the response to given situations. Also waiting to learn reading, writing and the grammar of a language is probably better after you have a basic understanding of the language since you start to equate words with the way you would pronounce them in your language rather than the one you want to learn.

There is nothing like speaking the language to learn it. Duolingo is good as a side tool to help you learn but not your primary method.

If you want to learn a language there are better ways to get to fluency. Duolingo is good at keeping you engaged so use it in conjunction with another method to help you learn. Unfortunately, there are no easy ways to learn. You have to put the effort and time.

None of these appear to contain the table you posted at the root of the thread, the table you now claim also includes the increased cost of veteran care due to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Let's just say that there was very little emphasis on Math in my Physics Masters, which in itself was very poorly taught, and leave it at that.
When I was in the Daintree region - more than thirty years ago - the recent saltwater croc takings being talked about were an American woman and a German shephard dog. Folklore was all about the crocs - I was only vaguely aware of the cassowary as a kind of weirded out ostrich.

If the developer and nightly versions of Firefox 9which are supposed to work properly) make you uncomfortable there are firefox versions that can deliver the same usability and are not affected by this bug.

If you use Android, you can get Fennec from the F-Droid online store.

If you use Windows, you can get Waterfox here: https://www.waterfox.net/

Fennec is just a fork of Firefox with telemetry disabled by default and known third party trackers removed.

Waterfox is a fork of Firefox that tries to be more geared toward users who want more control, its main differences are telemetry is disabled by default and it is supposed to support more extensions but I have not tested this out.
This reminds me of the more generalised "I do not use IDEs". It's a fascinating kind of phenomenon similar to ludditism to me where programmers reject the very premise of their own existence: that computers are capable of adding value or assisting with a task. It feels to me that this is its own form of dogma, no better justified than people who lean on the IDE or the debugger to do everything.

I don't pull out the debugger very often, but knowing how and when to do that, and do it well is a significant tool in my arsenal. There are times when I can guarantee you I would have spent a massive number of hours or maybe never properly resolved certain bugs without doing it.
> You're describing demand for labour.

> Labour supply is the amount of workers willing to work at a given wage. Demand for labour is the amount of workers wanted at a certain wage. If someone's excluded from the market at a certain wage, it means there isn't demand for their labour at that price.

If the person is excluded from the market, how does that show lack of demand for their labour at a certain wage? The person isn't even a market participant at that point.
Eh, I wouldn't so much call it "abuse". Coming to consensus takes work. At a large enough scale, it won't ever happen, and the EU is much larger than that -- it's never going to meet any unanimity requirements.

Not sure what they were thinking with such a policy. Unanimity is something you can have at the village level.

Yes, that's deeply misguided and, worse, totally unacceptable in HN comments. Conflating Chinese people with Nazis is beyond the pale, just as it would be for any nation.

"This is an incredibly uncharitable misreading of what I said"

I'm sorry if i offended you. Really.
I don't really think it's that uncharitable, but hey, offending you wasn't my intent, and if you were, that is what matters.

For what it is worth: your response to the parent took them to task for even attempting to state something:
"Because people were staying up until the wee hours of the morning working on fixing it instead of toggling priorities in Bugzilla. This was treated as a five-alarm fire."

This is a pretty rude response (which should never be happening regardless of what they wrote), and if you intended to convey that you had incident managers handling it and they didn't get around to it yet, you did not.

"Unlike that of Mozilla, your issue tracker at Google for outages is private and internal-only. "

I'm really unsure why you decided to add a completely irrelevant and unnecessary attack like this.

Honestly, it just makes me think less of you and makes me sad. You are usually a very sane and even keeled person.
I'm sure you were not having a good time, but i still don't think this was okay.

"
One of the many reasons it is private is so that people who don't know the organization's operational processes don't come in and start making incorrect assumptions based on what they find there."

Which is incredibly ironic, since it is not in fact as private as you seem to believe . Your own assumption here is completely and totally incorrect.

Maybe before you decide to add completely irrelevant and unnecessary attacks, at least verify they are correct?

" I think it's laudable that Mozilla works in the open so much, but comments like this one are some of the downsides of doing so."

You seem to have taken my comment incredibly personally, and your response seems very far out of proportion.

If you want to have a discussion, you're gonna have to tone this down a few notches.

FWIW: Right now most of your comments in this story read incredibly defensive (and i'm not just talking about this one)

I would stop and give it a rest. It is not projecting a good image.

Of course, that's just my perspective.

Really hope tomorrow is a better day for you.
The parent is correct. This is a common association in situs inversus, and you should seek specialized care. Your GP will probably not know about that (it's extremely rare), so if you have to insist, do so.

We run an ad platform that resizes, crops to the important section, transforms with text, and more with billions of requests per day. It's very cacheable, horizontally scalable, and CPU is cheap.

The main scaling challenge here is serving and bandwidth, both of which are handled by their CDN. I expect 5 figure costs for that but the rest of the platform is very expensive.
That seems silly to me. They could have easily served their api from another server.

i take issue with the Fermi paradox:

- it’s a theory created by humans for humans; it’s a product of our extremely narrow and short existence

- timeframe wise we’ve been living on Earth for a very limited amount of time (peanuts compared to our planet’s history)

- we’ve barely started to understand our planet, nevermind our universe

the Fermi paradox smells of our inability to humble ourselves in front of something much more complex than anything else in our history as a species.
I had to do a search to make sure that or something analogous wasn't actually real! It seems incredibly on target.
