I’m glad to hear you feel safe exposing valuables in Medellin. From looking at your LinkedIn profile though, I noticed two things:

- You’re a board member of a programming school based in Colombia. There’s inherent bias and conflict of interest in sharing your experiences.

- You are fluent in Spanish and appear to be of Latin American descent. I imagine that adds to your relative comfort level when in Colombia.

When I am in the areas near downtown SF, I also feel on edge and weary of my surroundings.

I encourage you to leave SoMa/Tenderloin/FiDi and check out the Richmond, Sunset, Japantown, Potrero Hill, North Beach, Marina, Pacific Heights, Mount Sutro, Presidio, or Golden Gate Park.

I think you’ll find SF has a lot to offer.
People "demonizing" nuclear typically do it because of the potential devastating consequences of an accident, and the uncertainty of storing waste for thousands of years. Not because they think nuclear have a high death toll in everyday use.
Lol, we're already incredibly far down that path. Have you been using the same smartphone since 2008? I ask seriously: how many have you owned since then?

I really enjoy this summary of the AVX512 instruction set evolution. It makes me curious to know more about the AVX512 microarchitecture evolution too. How practical is AVX512 likely to be over the coming years? How much do we have to worry about side-effects like throttling the CPU clock speed down when the wide datapaths are exercised, etc?

Can someone wake me up when it is a no-brainer to use AVX512 instructions on CPUs that support them? :-)
As an aside, I think looking at the global fertility rate is not very informative. The only reason that global fertility rates remain above 2 is because of Africa and the Middle East. The people of developed nations are, for the most part, going to gradually go extinct. This is list as of nations by fertility rate. [1] And that list is also an aggregate. Things such as education, modest or secular religious views, and income all work as major factors against fertility when looking at the composition of what is already, even as an aggregate, below replacement fertility rates.

This paints an interesting picture for the future. This [2] is a study from Pew showing the expected changes in religiosity in the future. Unaffiliated are expected to decrease from 16.4% to 13.2% by 2050, Buddhists down 7.1% to 5.2%., Muslims to increase from 23.2% to 29.7%, and so on. I don't understand why fertility rate is not a bigger consideration for people who consider themselves interested or invested in social progress. Fertility is arguably the biggest factor there is in what this world will look like in the coming years. If helping people to become economically comfortable, secular, and educated leads to them no longer reproducing - you're going to end up taking two steps back for every step forward.

Big backbones are only needed for commercial traffic, like Netflix. If it comes to war, I think the first thing US government will do is it will force all ISPs to cut off private network connections in order to 1) save the bandwith 2) stop spreading of inconvenient news.
But you don't work for a business, you work for the government. I think that makes a big difference in terms of what's expected and also what the consequences of non delivery are.
Fragrances Worth Falling For
Nope, this was on a variety of unix systems, but no Windows code at that point. We used some RSA libraries for crypto primitives and hardware acceleration, with a lot of custom in-house code (BigInts and other math routines). There was no OpenSSL usage. I think the bug turned out to be in our own code, because it was a case of lots of frustration tracking it down, an ‘ah-ha!’ moment, and a quick code check-in fixing the problem there and then. (Yes, we also wrote a new test case!)

But it’s interesting to hear about an identical sounding bug in similar code/routines. I’d say ‘what are the chances?’ but crypto code is always painfully hard.

I don't know about Canada but I'd apply similar caution in Australia. Note that the police aren't your enemy, but the greater your surface area towards them the more likely you are to have issues, so unless you really need them you're still better off minimizing your exposure to them.
I think we have seen this sort of approach succeed in a major US TV production in Netflix's Narcos. There are English-speaking characters, yes, but most of the drama happens entirely in Spanish.

I think this series would also have been better fully in Russian with English subtitles.
It’s completely anecdotal but I do hire people and I work as a part time examiner for CS students, so I do come into contact with what motivates people. Unfortunately I see a lot of fear driving people to push forward, picking up technologies because they think they have to, not because they actually need them.

I mean, if I do a quick search on the Danish job agents, no one is looking for someone who knows GraphQL. Yet I see people desperately trying to learn it in their free time because they are afraid of becoming obsolete.

I wonder where this fear comes from. It’s a fairly recent thing in my experience, and it’s not like it’s a buyers market. We still desperately need more developers.
I could write a bot that replied to all news stories that mention software under Permissive Open Source licenses and say that such licenses are a huge mistake and GPL licenses are clearly winning in the intellectual marketplace, linking to the study on Debian and Debian market share as proof.

Bots that advocate for either side would not make HN a better place and people flagging it would be the right choice. Not just because they are bots but because the repeated discussion does not advance any persons views or opinion. It is just advertisement noise from advocates arguing that their side is the holy crusade.

All most likely true. And yet, the Nature article clearly states that the Chikyu set the record for deepest hole drilled. They don't qualify about unique geography or for-scientific-purposes. This is odd. I generally find that Nature tries to be accurate to a fault. Having written a "news and views" for Nature once, I find the seeming inaccuracies incomprehensible.

I hope you have a comfortable bed, then. It will be a while before there are machines deployed across the whole range (client laptop, client desktop, server, network edge) that are SNC. Atom isn't even supporting AVX2 in the short term either.

Daniel Lemire, who I work with on simdjson, wrote this on throttling: https://lemire.me/blog/2018/08/13/the-dangers-of-avx-512-thr...

I don't know specifics (I'm ex-Intel a good bit before SNC, and wasn't a hardware guy) but my impression is the clock throttling impact gen-on-gen goes down. If you're actually getting good value from AVX-512 instructions rather than chucking in 1 in 1000 instructions for the cool factor, you're probably fine.
It gets more complicated when considering Huawei is also a major sponsor to a variety of research conferences, open source projects, etc.

I wonder what is ACM's stand on this?
Yeah; I think it just speaks to the fact that there is no substitution to being a well-informed individual. If you're cognizant about understanding the world around you, you're generally pretty good at weeding bad information out and bringing good information in. Unfortunately, I think the internet has a siloing effect and the most sensational voices rise to the top. People get caught in their silos and don't have an easy way to peek outside. Misinformation spreads; and that's scary when trying to quantify the future of our society.
In many more countries outside the US, they are not.

Since Three felonies a day is true almost everywhere in the world it’s clearly risky behavior to interact with police. Of course police is usually helpful just like the rest of humans.

I have horrible memories of time spent tracking down other test failures caused by helper programs not shutting down cleanly, and causing obscure bugs in later tests. e.g. a test failing because it couldn’t bind to port 443, because an earlier test helper program sometimes didn’t clean up properly. That’s just one possibility for a process and/or network condition that ruins a test.
Having grown up in Iceland where the police don't even carry guns I'd be very suspicious of this specific interaction. I wouldn't hesitate to talk to a police officer on the street, or chat with them if I was routinely detained at a traffic stop or whatever.

But in this scenario the police are unprompted at your door and their first ask is to come into your house.

If the police just want to talk to you because they're concerned about you personally they'll just ask to talk to you in a place they wouldn't otherwise need a search warrant signed by a judge to enter.
It's nice to see some movement on TLS in Redis, and hey it also introduced me to KeyDB!

I notice that the original patch's notes say ssl/non-ssl redis shouldn't be mixed, but does this force TLS use on the standard port, or does it allow it, on a separate port (or allow it, StartTLS style on the same port?)

Following on from the above, does this also support/enforce that replication traffic is encrypted?

How does this affect sentinel?
It's also possible to be for social progress, but also think the world is over-populated. In fact if a person generally worries about the future of humanity, I would not be surprised to see a strong correlation between those two attitudes.

A fertility rate of 1.7 isn't the same as 'not reproducing' and doesn't imply 'going extinct'. You can't just extrapolate a trend at any given moment indefinitely. Otherwise if you pick a moment of rising population you'll extrapolate up to infinity or if you pick a moment of falling population you'll extrapolate to zero. Reality doesn't work like that. Arguably it's just a trend towards right-sizing the population.

Globally fertility rates have been falling for many decades. It's hardly surprising that the poorest countries are among the last to see fertility rates decline the most, but as income and education rates in those regions rise, their fertility rates will also fall.

As a for secularization, which you seem to conflate with social progress, counting 'Muslims' and 'Christians' isn't a simple exercise. Counting everyone born to Muslim parents as Muslim doesn't make any more sense than counting everyone who gives presents at Christmas as Christian. In fact attendances at Mosques and actual participation in religious activities is in decline across most of the Muslim world. In Europe most 'Muslims' do not pray every day. Egypt is a good proxy for trends in the Muslim world due to it's cultural influence. There are steep declines in religious practice and support for imposing Sharia Law has more than halved over the last decade.

There are relatively simple ramjets that fly at around Mach 4 speeds. They are unmanned and are accelerated to speed by solid rockets. Probably the ramjet can't even start below Mach 1 or so.

Designing an air breathing propulsion system for a wide speed range is difficult.

Rockets are much easier after a certain point. McDonnell Douglas and Paul Czysz had interesting projects. If you want manned reconnaissance, a Mach 6 air launched liquid rocket powered lifting body would probably be the next logical step from the Blackbird and would not even be super hard. With rockets you don't have the inlet problem at all and they have excellent thrust to weight ratio.

>The Mises Institute has put it up for free, which is surely off-message but whatever.

Ah, a clearly well-rationed article is at foot. Here’s a hint, if someone isn’t able to model free things in their understanding of capitalist systems, they don’t understand them enough to critique them.

Anyway, the rest of that “critique” isn’t actually a critique. It’s just goal post shifting to the point where it assumes socialist systems by nature have perfect demand discovery mechanisms (none of which are alluded to) and can never produce a surplus. Conveniently, it follows that clearly socialist systems are perfectly efficient and do not allow surpluses because they have this neat built in mechanism of perfect demand discovery.

So it’s “not true socialism” if there are any inefficiencies in food production, energy production, etc because “true socialism” has a mechanism by which everyone gets exactly what they need.

Did someone inform the author of this that such a mechanism has never existed and the most efficient mechanism we have discovered so far is markets?

Privacy is not gone. We could set up laws and enforce them. We already do this for medical data (HIPAA). There's no reason we can't do this for other categories of personal data, such as what you buy and where you go. Europe does this with its GDPR. It can be done, but we need a government that doesn't prioritize interests of corporation-people over those of human people.
For me, it's only partially a technical problem. If I need to really study something, I always print it out or buy the book. Honestly, I don't really understand why, but I'd guess that my comprehension and patience are at least double when reading a hardcopy.

Another advantage for me of physical books (etc) is that you have something like "tactile memory." What I mean by this is that very often, I can find where something was mentioned basically by how the book feels when its opened (e.g., how thick the pages are in each hand). A similar thing happens with shelves of books.

This is pretty hard to replicate with better tech.

But the potential devastation isn’t rooted in reality - anyone can assume the worst could happen, and when it did happen in Chernobyl the numbers haven’t been very high.

The alternatives, even the green ones like hydroelectric, have dwarfed nuclear-related deaths hundreds, if not thousands, of times over with single catastrophes[0].

Arguments against the storage of nuclear fuel usually don’t understand how little waste there is and, even still, burying a problem for 200 years while we figure out how to deal with it is an infinite number of times better than dealing with the fallout of global warming by not shifting to nuclear energy.

My guess: older parents + environment. Granted people are having children later in life but that doesn't account for the increase in cases (Better detection and incentives in funding to label kids autistic is another possibility.) So something is now in the air, food or water supply that is making these changes. Maybe older parents are more prone to this?
I think you may looking at the wrong disorder. ADHD in adults doesn't mean someone is rude (no more than a normie). But at least some forms of ADHD will make the person look like inherently lazy.

> I don’t really see why flaws should become more acceptable if you give them a scientific sounding name.

It's not that they should be, they just in practice are to most people, and this can be a lifeline, especially if depression is involved.

Personally, I believe some "flaws" (aspects that make it problematic for one to function) absolutely should be cut a lot of slack and approached from another angle. Social pressure - the kind of telling you to stop having a problem and get your shit together - works only for some things, and can make the issue worse in others (e.g. in depression, it not only won't help, it can drive patients to suicide).

> I’m not sure it makes sense to accept that people “with ADHD” behave badly for example

Beyond the point that most don't "behave badly" but rather "behave inconsistently if at all", it's a matter of what you mean by "accept". If "accept to your social circle"? You can do whatever. But if you want to help that person, you'll accept that these aspects are not effectively corrected by social pressure because they're beyond the person's control.

Quoting the Summary section:

"People commonly debate whether social and mental conditions are real diseases. This masquerades as a medical question, but its implications are mainly social and ethical. We use the concept of disease to decide who gets sympathy, who gets blame, and who gets treatment.

Instead of continuing the fruitless "disease" argument, we should address these questions directly. Taking a determinist consequentialist position allows us to do so more effectively. We should blame and stigmatize people for conditions where blame and stigma are the most useful methods for curing or preventing the condition, and we should allow patients to seek treatment whenever it is available and effective."
