Chris, you know better than this nonsense. No experts know the answer, but the FSF strongly advocates the position that JS running on your computer is just like any other software running on your computer. The AGPL was written to require a server operator to free their patches to software running on their server, not in your browser.

It isn't at all clear how courts will decide the case if such a case ever comes to trial.
Lol. This is actually the first time ever someone said I use very mainstream tools, so thank you for that! I can tell you don't know me :)
Unless you need to make a dial on a physical piece of equipment. In that case it's helpful not to have to append x10^N to all of your numbers.

Indeed. Some years ago a friend of mine wrote a Minecraft server in Golang and it ran on something ridiculous like 10MB of RAM with genuinely excellent performance.

It could definitely be done.
You're correct in that, from the HW side, the "crown jewels" of Cray is the network ASIC's. Everything else is pretty much commodity.

AFAICS, the main difference between the latest Cray network (slinghshot) and IB are:

- Adaptive non-minimal routing, needed to get good performance on their more scalable network topology. IB has basically static ECMP, which works good for fat trees, which scales as O(log N). But for really large machines topologies like Dragonfly which Cray is using become interesting.

- QoS features to isolate jobs from each other.

- Some kind of compatibility with Ethernet. Not sure exactly how this works, but apparently when the NIC communicates with other compute nodes in the cluster it can use the high-performance mode, but if it communicates with some other system, such as Lustre servers, or management systems, or maybe even, say, pulling a container image from an external system, it looks and behaves like an ethernet NIC with the normal Linux TCP/IP stack running on top.
Our test pipeline fails any Python service trying to deploy if the black style check fails.

I was initially grumpy about my org adopting black because I preferred single quotes, but the level of standardization is a huge win in my book. I never even think about my code style anymore, I just write it and then run black.
I always get these weird experiences when I've been really into playing some game, and then happen to half wake up in the middle of the night. I'll be in this bizarre half-awake, half-asleep state where I'm quasi-dreaming that I'm living in the game world and I won't be able to get the dream/hallucination to stop.

Right now I'm getting seriously into Factorio, and I had this experience a few nights ago. I half-woke up and kept having these thought-hallucinations about the best method to use to optimize the way my resource refiners were feeding into my main bus, because I needed to make X% more sleep-cogs in order to go back to sleep.

It's actually kind of infuriating when it happens, sometimes it keeps me in that half-awake state for as long as thirty minutes. Been happening to me since I was a kid.
Ah.. okay. I didn't know that. Yes that makes sense now that I think about it. They wont be able to do a full sequencing at their current price.
On a more mundane level:

Every minute you spend scrolling social sites in that little addictive loop waiting for Fresh Content to click on and wonder why you bothered reading it is a minute you're not working on the Big Project.

Or a minute you're not sitting there staring off into space, watching thoughts wander through your mind and maybe bouncing off of each others in interesting ways that give you something that feels worth doing.

Xeon absolutely crushes EPYC on MySQL Sysbench. The top-of-the-line EPYC provides performance similar to the five-year-old Xeon E5 v3 (Haswell) from Intel, except at high thread counts where that obsolete Intel part also crushes the EPYC. These results are on Percona's own blog and are also backed up by Anandtech's reviews where Skylake Xeons are ~twice as fast as AMD's.

For large codes there is just no getting around the fact that the AMD parts have a weird and highly fragmented cache architecture, very slow memory access, NUMA memory latency even on the same socket, and a frankly broken branch target buffer. Xeon has none of these problems.

Steam Link Finally Comes to iOS
There are projects out there on GitHub that have issues disabled entirely. It's fairly simple to not accept user feedback, and still distribute source code and binaries without support. It's more difficult with larger projects that require big reports, but it's certainly possible to not give out direct contact information (use forums or built-in bug reporter, etc)
That modest version leaves out the bits I was responding to.

It's the combination of snark and low-information. The comment comes across as trying to show up the other person as ignorant, while positioning yourself as the smarter and correct one. That is an internet status game, not substantive conversation. Does it matter, or add anything interesting, who wins the kolanos vs. NotPaidToPost match in a subthread?

Something similar appeared in your earlier comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19931917. You're referencing things without teaching the reader why they matter and what they show, sort of like weapons in a cross examination. Cross examination in an HN discussion is boring, and a step towards being mean.

If you actually do know more, a much better thing to do is share some of what you know so we can all learn. Instead of trying to defeat one user, share information with all of us. Alternatively, it's always fine not to post anything.
> Detachment in the sence of not being dependent/defined by them [...]

That is the very definition of detachment.

Feelings are the core part of you, and not separate from you. Allowing "yourself" to not be defined by feelings essentially means detaching "yourself" from "your" feelings.

> Detachment [...] NOT in the sense of not feeling.

Of course if one is not feeling a feeling in the first place there is nothing to detach from.

> This is natural, effortless and is part of growing up as a human.

So whenever you begin to feel one or more of the following feelings[1] is it "natural, effortless" to experience your peace?

Google completely ignores our complaints about forcing app developers to use just those two firms so any dev. shop using Gmail API (or IMAP over OAuth2) should be prepared to pay >$15k! That is going to drive many small businesses out of business.
I occasionally travel with a Pelican Air 1535, which is carry-on compatible, with my camera gear (about $5-15,000 depending on what I'm doing).

I've heard of people suggesting one of two methods of handling forced check-ins:

1) I use an app called MyGearVault that shows the value of the kit (also offers insurance). Checked bags are only insured to a maximum of 3,500. You can extend this to 5,000 for $50, but no more. "I do not want to check my bag because it is not covered by your insurance".

2) carry $50/$100 - if asked to check your bag, look behind you. "Hey, is someone willing to check their bag in place of me, here's some incentive".

I've never personally tried other method, but I've heard people claim success with either.
Can an author typeset their work using the EPUB format?
You can stretch Rails a whole lot these days -- so much so that by the time Rails is the bottleneck, you can probably afford to hire primo engineers to refactor to better tools.

I would however build the real-time chat system with Elixir and Phoenix. Just knock that out and not worry about chat performance for a very long time.

So I would build the main app with Rails. And the chat system with Elixir.
US immigration law already has strict quotas for siblings. The backlog for sibling greencards stretches back decades. So sponsorship is possible in theory, but little used in practice.

The main sponsorship that's currently easier in the US than other countries is parents of citizens, who are considered immediate relatives and are not subject to quota.

That's a technically true but also misleading statement. It is exclusively on heavy AVX loads that any such delta appears. If you're not using AVX, then the single-thread differences are ~15% or less. So Intel losing 25% does now potentially put them behind on most single-threaded workloads.
This is the converse of "constraints yield creativity" so I agree. Stop buying stuff.

I agree with you. I dislike digital distribution in general, largely for this reason. I believe it's likely that as long as I can find (say) a working PS4, my physical media PS4 games will continue to work as long as I would like them to.

Unfortunately, the general public wants convenience over these benefits. Instant gratification.
Taleb's basic claim is that options that are way out of the money are underpriced. So he set up a fund, Empirica, which bought options a long way from the current value. This strategy does extremely well in years of a sudden downturn, and loses money in all other years. He and his investors did really well in 2008. He doesn't talk about the other years. Solid numbers for Empirica are really hard to find. Whether this is a win as an ongoing strategy is a big question. If you'd bought into that strategy in 2009, after it worked once, you'd have lost money for a decade.
> Some of his skits released during that time would be classified as "hate speech" in 2019.

Yeah, I'm going to need some proof for that. Eddie Murphy's '80s HBO standup routines are available in full on YouTube, and some of that material is absurdly homophobic. He isn't a pariah by any means.

People do see nuance and understand that values and mores change over time, and what might have been socially acceptable at one point, is no longer so.

Just because there are other methods to achieve safety doesn't mean the ones I mentioned don't work.

Bandcamp really is fantastic and will always have a special place for me. Just let me buy the stuff, choose my format, (even ogg!). Even let me sample it a good amount of times, and no obnoxious nonsense on their website. I hope they're doing really well.

That said, for a larger number of really major artists, I heard about something called HDTracks. I haven't tried them yet, but it seems that they sell FLAC in 24 bit audio.

It's useful for a politician working for wealthy interests to have the lower class population fragmented and a portion actively voting against their own shared economic interests, rather than a united and motivated voting block. The only war is the class war, and racism is the tool politicians use to mask that fact from the masses. Sadly all to many people on the right buy into racist rhetoric as the substance and fail to see it as the facade that it is.

> Let say that I, as an individual, report my car stolen when I’ve actually lent it to someone, and then I do it again, and again, and dozens more times, resulting in false arrests and jail time for law-abiding citizens.

Isn't the legal concept here 'mens rea' 'a guilty mind'. In your case from the way you describe this you know you are doing what you are doing. The argument would be that in order for a company (or individual) to be liable the same way (if there is even that or a similar concept for a corporation) they would have to have a reasonable knowledge that something like this was happening and that they could prevent it given the large scope of rentals that they do. I don't think it's actually reasonable to expect that in millions of transactions everything can and will go perfect. It's simply not the same standard as for an individual that has much fuller control of the transaction.

You said after all 'report my car stolen when I've actually lent it to someone and then do it again and again'. So you know you had 'lent it to someone'.

Equivalent would be if you could prove that the branch manager did not simply make a mistake and not put the right paperwork in but that he knowingly called the police when he knew the car was lent out. In one case it's a mistake (or shoddy work) in the other (as in your example) it's intentional.

I mean, you would hope it's not possible for it to be that simple but... you could see it, couldn't you?

I've always been a fan of upfront pricing, but I don't work there anymore. As near as I can tell not having publicly available pricing seems pretty common for enterprise software.
Perhaps your parent failed to add double-newlines and HN's formatting ate their newlines, but notice the extra word "lines" at the end.
I very rarely fly for business and usually it is a long process - 4 hour flight plus customs plus far away airports. I saw "Up In The Air" (very cool movie) as suggested below but it is still unconnected to me, can't imagine working that way. But yeah, I suppose short and regular business trips in the same day with actual business, have different requirements.

Last.fm was ruined by, I think, CBS.

Their recommendations were miles ahead of anything Spotify, Apple or Google have ever managed. So last.fm killed off the radio, the streaming, then started playing random Youtube vids for each track - very often a poor rendition, or a cover etc.

I gave up years ago, but still miss that recommendation engine that drove the radio stations - I discovered so many brilliant new-to-me artists through that. Scrobbling listens into a different platform or recommendation engine is the least useful part of what they did.

I'm actually surprised the site's still there!
I don't think many non-tech savvy people even know what BitTorrent is. So its mention is not going to trigger much one way or another.

The only enterprises that would have an issue with are going to be companies in the media space.
And it really shouldn't be. A poor white supremacist and a poor minority have a lot more in common than they would like to admit, and the rampant political rhetoric surrounding race is designed to keep the lower classes in constant conflict, fragmented, and in the case of poor republicans, reliably voting against their own economic interests.

This is primarily the fault of later era CDs when the index marks were abandoned and small movements were separated by track breaks. Originally, Redbook audio was supposed to always have a silent pregap between tracks and indexes were for intra-track navigation. You will find this on early classical CDs. Then the problem is finding a player that supports skipping index marks.

On a bigger scale, this just fuels public anti-science, who is fed up of reading in the news "coffee is good for your heart" and the next day "coffee causes heart attacks".

The compromise position is probably to only have overhead bin space in premium cabins, then the price of overhead bin space is folded into the premium ticket.

Good point that carry-on bags probably also slows down security, and the amount that it slows security down is probably not negligible. Without carry-on suitcases, you could probably completely do away with the X-ray machines (hand-check people's purses and backpacks), which are (anecdotally) probably the biggest bottleneck at airport security.
My fundamental question here is: what is the problem with slack and how do you plan to solve it?

Actually he spends a minute at around t=4:00 talking about how the car had just saved him from a head on collision. That’s pretty sweet.

At 9:58 there’s a behavior I saw a few times two or three versions back, where Tesla didn’t want to make room for a car cutting you off. Since about 2019.8 it will back off even as soon as it sees a blinker to make space.

The biggest challenge which this gen AP has is crossing intersections which are on a curve and have no lane markings. It’s not supposed to be able to do that, and not surprisingly it doesn’t do it so well.

But as a counterpoint, MA was nice enough to grind off all the lane marking on the Mass Pike westbound out of Boston a couple weeks ago and, I have no idea how, but AP keeps in lane nicely with just the grinding marks remaining on the road.

One thing I started doing after trips is doing a "post-mortem" of sorts, basically:

2) Would it have changed my trip significantly without this item?

If the answer is "rarely" and "not really", I don't pack it next time.
This isn't correct. $90 million TV shows exist because after a studio creates that show, they have the exclusive legal right to sell it to distribute that content. Otherwise, nothing stops Netflix from just taking Game of Thrones for free and putting it on their own platform.
>For instance, if you’re working on an important project but feel constrained or unmotivated by your office setting, initiate a grand gesture by asking your manager to let you work from home for an entire week to get it done.

I'm not surprised this conclusion was reached so quickly. I find it a bit dysfunctional that working from home has become the go-to solution for distraction-filled workplaces.

How about we make work more like home instead? Companies will see the value of a beautiful, effective workplace in the form of increased productivity. Tech parks should offer restaurants, a gym with a sauna, a shower, pods for taking naps. Expecting the employee to keep a distraction-free home office seems strangely feudal, unless you really need the tax deduction.

They do say it's for the enterprise, and unfortunately "contact us" pricing is par for the course. It is very annoying though - if I'm interested, I'll need to email/phone. And if I email, nobody will tell me pricing until I speak to a sales bod, at least once, until they figure out how much money they can likely extract from us.

Folk selling B2B complain about the long time it takes to convert a lead to a sale, to a PO, to a payment - but these slimey sales tactics are just as much to blame.
The community says no such thing, that's the insult. The community even has multiple options current and past to reduce frictions on using things that aren't packaged, or make packaging easier and updates faster. Your characterization of what a distro is and how it treats its users is insulting exactly because it completely discounts the huge effort that's put into solving the complex issues and the advantages it brings. You're not offering an argument for how things work today, their tradeoffs and what could be done better. You're not offering time or other resources to help. You're just attributing vile behaviors to other people while offering nothing of value.
