"Microservice" describes the size and scope of each deployment artifact. It answers the question "is the whole system just one big ball, is it broken up, how broken up is it?" It doesn't describe how it is deployed.

"Serverless" describes how a deployment artifact is deployed and runs. Generally it refers to a class of technologies in multiple domains whereby intricate knowledge of the underlying host is abstracted behind a cleaner API, with things like scaling, security, patching, etc handled by an infrastructure provider. While the term rose in prominence alongside "functions as a service", which is certainly a technology that generally qualifies as serverless, there are many serverless products out there: AWS Fargate for running containers, DynamoDB for a database, S3 for object storage, all of these are "serverless". A good signal is: if I can SSH into it, its not serverless.

A microservice can certainly be deployed serverless (ECS/Fargate or Google Cloud Run comes to mind). A microservice can even refer to one or more logically related functions-as-a-service; the term more-so speaks to how the engineering teams organize their business domain into the code and how the APIs speak to each other, rather than the exact underlying technologies.
We should just go through and report all the defcon and black hat talks, along with most other security talks, including those by google researchers.
How do I find your practice IRL? It’s hard to find people that don’t just recommend surgery because the system wants them to.

"helps wonders with any shoulder issues"? (emphasis mine)

That's a bold claim. There are a lot of different shoulder issues. I never found that all that YTWL stuff did anything useful for my shoulder at all (torn labrum from Judo), but doing stuff more like the article (closed chain) and doing some of the flexibility stuff from a 'gymnastics for beginners' type program ("Elements" from GMB - in the end I didn't like the program but I still do the warmup/cooldown) also really helped.

Also not getting into impromptu bench pressing competitions with rugby players at the gym was a pretty good idea too.
Most likely one of the dependencies required a certain version and did not include the caret (certain version or higher), and another dependency did the same thing with a different version, and so on.

Oh cool! I didn't know you could flash a coreboot bios and I would love to have an upgraded display! Though mostly I run apps full screen so it isn't terribly important, it would just be nice.
I spent an entire summer bumbling around the UK in a little rented Fiat 500, with the family all crammed in and complaining because we'd rented one that came without AC.

At least, according to the rental company that was the case. On the last day as we were driving it back to drop off, I discovered that you could press the temperature dial inwards to turn on AC.

There was a significant number of choice words from the folks in the back seat. But aside from that the rest of the drive was pleasantly cool.
Since I don't think anyone on hackernews thinks much different, I feel like defending the other side of this: Yes, in theory self-driving cars can be safer than human drivers. But the tech simply isn't mature. It just isn't. Early tech always has hiccups, not the ones that are calculated into the risk but the ones no one expects. So there's a somewhat high probability that a bug that works totally different from what anyone expects is just waiting to happen and it's steering a 4000 pound block of metal. Let's start this, but it's okay to start slow.
With a process that happens on regular intervals like a Windows Update, I always wondered why the system doesn't store metrics on how long the process has historically taken on previous runs, and then just uses a weighted average of historical times as a time-based total estimate, converted into a divisor for work-based progress estimates (i.e. if previous runs took 60 minutes on average, then progress at 25% would say "45 minutes remaining", then if it suddenly jumped to 50% would immediately say "30 minutes remaining." Even if they're choppy, those time estimates would actually be correct if you sampled and averaged them.)
> But again, don't jump into it and don't expect it to be easy. My experience was positive in the end, but it's a total dog along the way. If you have the money, find a trainer who understands injuries and recovery.

So I will agree mostly. I am at the age where I find I must ramp up exercise very slowly. If I do, the benefits are huge. If I go to fast, I pay.

I tend to be an off-and-on exerciser. When my back starts twinging, it is $DIETY's sign that I have not been doing my crunches....

But I think finding a trainer that understands therapy/recovery and that things need to go slow is..... let me say "difficult". Most are a little to exuberant and just don't have the patience (or respect) for a slow work-up. I'll save my money, thanks.

Actually, I have found that myofascial therapy from a knowledgeable provider has helped every single one of my long-standing pains of various sorts. Years of shoulder pain eradicated in two 1-hour sessions. A case of "trackball thumb" that made me switch to different pointing devices for 6 months cured in 10 minutes, and I was even taught how to work that one out for myself.
Please keep fiery denunciation off HN, regardless of how good you are or how bad someone else was. It helps nothing, and adds to the toxic fumes already poisoning this place.

Very cool! I wonder why they wrote their own source code analyzer instead of building off of the language servers that already exist: https://langserver.org/
I’d say one big reason would be because so many people use it.
That's a very helpful clarification. Thanks!
This seems a bit strongly stated. However, it doesn't make sense that corporal punishment is off the table. Why is the same punishment prescribed for pretty much every crime, only varying the duration? From what I can tell, Singapore uses corporal punishment in an escalating sense - to deter criminal behavior before it becomes ingrained. So, for 1st or 2nd time offenders.

Putting a pedophile in prison? Of course the pedo will not be a problem there - there are no children to molest!
Agreed, I can't see how the output is produced from the input, e.g https://fractal.parts/dfdfdfdfd it took several tries to even produce anything other a totally blank output.
https://www.chromestatus.com/features#milestone%3E66%20AND%2... says that you are missing out on 181 features, most of which are either new or spec improvements (nested web workers, spec-compliant border-radius).

No, I meant "awesome" but "awful" is an even better example.
Except you're still further proving my point. Instead of expressing that you wish to learn about the science, you just quote decades old bad science that never really was true.

In a way, its sorta like how flat earthers and anti-vaxers work, you're just part of a third type that denies nutrition science. I did exactly what I said I did, and so have many other people, and what you're engaging in is an odd form of fat shaming (seeing as I'm not fat anymore, but used to be; and lost my weight entirely by following the science where it lead me).
Setting a minimum baseline standard, such as mandated employment conditions, is not an interference with price mechanisms.

(Dismissing for now the qyuestion of what goods and services can be effectively delivered via markets, and in what circumstances.)
Don’t worry the hatespeech will still be there, for something to be banned it needs to do something that like 80% of politicians oppose (“hacking” videos are only useful for crime, so we must stop the kids from criming), or that causes advertisers to pull out, or if the content otherwise hits their bottom line (reporting on hate crimes, privacy, tracker blocking, etc).

Anything else is fine - you have to be either small target or get a large amount of media attention for them to enforce some semblance of their stated policies (which is why defcon and black hat videos haven’t been touched)
Fixing Antivirus Errors
This is definitely relevant for multiple reasons. Pornographic content is legally protected free speech (except on broadcast TV for whishy washy reasons). Yet YouTube does not host pornographic content and is not required to do so. To my knowledge, no large groups of people have demanded that YouTube host pornographic content in the decade or so of its existence under free speech grounds. It's only when YouTube stops hosting stuff they like that they suddenly consider it to be a free speech issue.

And on the other hand, PornHub has offered to host the channels of people who were banned from YouTube. Few chose to move to PornHub because of the implications of this association, even though it is a more free option.

To me it's all nonsense. If you want to host your own stuff unrestricted, start your own site or something like peertube. The more decentralized things are, the freer they are. Alex Jones can still post crazy shit about Sandy Hook families on his own site and deal with his own legal consequences which I will not comment on. But it's pretty obvious why YouTube doesn't want to deal with him. And while it's a bummer for fans of these hacking shows that YouTube won't be hosting their content, perhaps it's an opportunity to work towards decentralization.
Why do 'power users' care if people read their emails?
Foot in the door for not making Taxi/Uber drivers jobless? I expect some political backlash in the short term.
One of the OED meanings is still "appalling, dreadful, weird". I've seen usage meaning the same as "terrifying" in older texts but I can't find an example just now.

The lane assist messed up and it’s the driver’s fault for being grumpy because it’s a rental. Yeah, okay.
`SHENZHEN I/O contains minor references to drugs and alcohol and a little bit of swearing. It takes place in China and includes Chinese characters and situations. Students may acquire an increased sense of the ridiculousness of modern capitalist society.`

LOL.
Shenzhen I/O is the only Zachademics game I bought on Steam and is actually an addictive card game, with a programming game as an Easter egg.
Robot cars don’t work, and as long as they share the streets with autonomous humans, they never will. But don’t give up hope, because maybe corporations can make it illegal to be outside unless you’re inside a robot car.
The ceo of Zillow did an interview with npr and he said the reason prices are high is because the recession caused new construction to stop for a while which resulted in a shortage. A shortage combined with very high wages would result in what we see now. Admittedly, regulation has probably exacerbated the problem by making it more difficult to build, but that didn’t matter until we were behind. I would definitely believe him before any of the armchair real estate experts in these comments I must say.
I didn't meant that at all.
You ought to talk to a lawyer about your best options. It may be something like an LLC.

What you say is true, but the better solution is for huge corporations not to have a monopoly/oligopoly on channels for public discourse.
> I can’t imagine how Kyle Vogt acquired the necessary knowledge to make this work.

I've worked on projects with Kyle, and he often goes into bulldozer mode. It is no surprise to me that Kyle could "learn" all he needed in order to get something like this set up (or at least learn enough to orchestrate a small group in constructing it). Kyle is, by all means, a "force of nature" as YC tends to define it.

The downside to Kyle's optimism is that he often has very little concern for the humanity of others. He can set up decent optics around his actions and decisions in the wake of what many might consider failures, but he has consistently abused those who try to give him good-faith constructive feedback and often brought co-workers to tears. This is all well-documented at least through the past 4-5 years. (Kyle does actually explicitly ask for "direct" feedback btw. He just is only capable of handing the feedback on a periodic, weekly or monthly basis).

A key lesson of this article (and in glacials post above) is a testament to what can be achieved very quickly if technical debt is of minor concern. Kyle's key strength is in building a proof of concept that supports rapid iteration. This point appears to be something the Justin / Twitch teams did very well.

A secondly lesson is in getting alignment among diverse engineers. Think about how the team might have debated the architecture presented. Think about how some of the choices might rub people the wrong way.

Finally, Kyle is a unique character in several ways but is not alone in possessing a transient "bulldozer" mentality. If you see yourself having the same pattern of behavior, get help before others get hurt. There are a variety of mitigations that can help, but they need explicit participation.
A lot of people think they have the right to micromanage your home and garden in order to maintain their own property values. That doesn't seem to be the case here though. I'd think few would object to living next to this beautiful garden.

So what's left besides a hunger for regimentation, uniformity, control? What's the best available argument for stopping people from growing veg in the front yard?

It might attract more pests. It might be a pain for the bureaucrats to have to distinguish between gardens and overgrown jungles, so easier to ban the lot. Nefarious activity could be hidden in the foliage.

I guess there's always a plausible excuse for central control.
I have found that “shipped and sold by amazon” also involves a very high proportion of defective or counterfeit items.

Even with books, there are many copyright-violating counterfeits, alongside many “printed on demand” copies at horrible quality (but not advertised as such) under some kind of shady deal Amazon forced down publishers’ throats.

Unfortunately Amazon has driven many alternative vendors out of the market, so it’s sometimes hard to find things elsewhere online.
I consider it a feature of Firefox that it doesn't easily allow "enterprise CAs" to intercept traffic. Making it easier for anti virus vendors to more easily reduce security for their users by man-in-the-middle proxies does not increase security.
Story time! Recently, I've been thinking back to when lack of SSL was a huge, widespread problem on the Internet. This was back in the mid 2009-2010's, and at that point, one company in particular was lagging: Facebook.

So some random person made a browser extension that automatically collected the login credentials of everyone who opened Facebook on whatever public network you were connected to.[0] Then they publicly released it for free. Ironically, the very first comment in the article I link here is, "Okay, it's evil, but how is this news?"

But the Firesheep plugin was a really big influencing factor in forcing not just Facebook, but a number of companies to switch their entire sites to HTTPS.

The point I'm trying to make is not that you should go out and blow up the world to make a statement -- it's that it's possible for there to be a problem that's trivial to exploit, and that is regularly exploited by criminals and businesses, and that is widely known to be exploitable, and for some reason people will still ignore it.

But if it's personal, if your next-door neighbor or your weird coworker can suddenly start doing it, then something clicks and people realize, "Oh, this is actually a real problem."

There's no technical difference between what Superhuman was doing and what every other marketer is still doing, but people are weird about what exactly they're willing to care about, and if the Superhuman controversy can be used to direct some of that anger towards structural, useful goals, then is that really a problem?

I understand that sometimes the specific triggers that make people care are stupid, but my response to that is never to ask people to care less. It's already hard enough to make people care about things.

> Well. If you want a 5/5 challenge, fire up Shenzhen.io and set the language to Chinese.

Ironically, in China some gamers complained that the game is kind of unrealistic as all the datasheets are available in Chinese, it shouldn't and it has made the game less challenging... In real life, engineers in Shenzhen rarely read or write formal datasheets in Chinese, even when the IC is completely designed in China.

Doing it in English can be a bit difficult for a freshman who is unfamiliar with the terminology, which can make the game a bit more interesting. I wonder if the developers should add a "native language w/ English documentation" option for those who want a more authentic experience.
c.f. Debian, which has a policy to exclude non-free firmware from its installation media.

The onus is on the user to themselves supply the firmware.

For each query I had to optimize, I wrote dozens, if not hundreds, that worked without any intervention. 99% is just a rough guess.

> If you have a query that needs to look at over about 5K rows and you need responses under 100ms you need to know what its doing.

Thats very unspecific, but getting 5000 rows from a table should take a few milliseconds on modern hardware.
Overbearing youtube, 10 years from now if it's still a medium it may be a far-cry from an expressive and genuine platform

Yahoo's not the place it was in its heyday. Facebook's not the place it was in its heyday. Even Google's not the place it was 10 years ago. I don't think anyone is immune. The best you can do it to make sure the trajectory is positive. Netflix isn't the place it used to be. I think that's positive, though.

How long until biohacking, and other things are blocked based on the same sensitivity triggers for the topic?

All the really cool stuff should disappear from YouTube. That's just the natural order of things. They no longer want to be edgy. They want to be fat and happy off those big establishment corporate dollars. They've positioned themselves to be the next cable. That just means they want to be the current "vast wasteland."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_and_the_Public_Inte...

The faster YouTube becomes the next cable, the better. The less time the public discourse spends squished under the pressing thumb of the corporate oligarchs, the better.
I know sharing feelings is risky around here but I'm gonna go out on a limb and share: it discourages me and deeply angers me that people are out here having to fight for six years to plant a vegetable garden in their yard. This is very grim.

It's gonna take the kind of courage and patience exemplified by Hermine Ricketts and Tom Carroll to grow in the ways we need to grow to survive and evolve as a species.

We need to remember who we are.
Does anyone know if it's possible to get the FDA to certify a snapshot of source code, along with a complete test suite - instead of an executable binary - for use in medical devices?

From my limited experience with this, it seems that all existing medical device software is closed source and are certified as executables - but I'm not sure if this is a limitation of the FDA processes, or the fact that they're intended to be closed source?
Shitty software can be ignored without being deleted. Hard to ignore shitty laws.
I reported Google's recent video about their CTF hacking competition. We won't be safe as long as dangerous videos like that exist on Youtube.
What are your thoughts on file:// URLs being opened/executed in a separate enclave from the network, with no access to the network?

This would allow the convenience of file:// and IMHO eliminate many if not all of the risks.
You don’t just guess the full oath of such a file.

Sounds like a data breach, either on the server or in the ops code / config.

When will data ownership be a thing? No need for ANY company to store my data if I can have it one my phone, which is on 24/7 and connected.
I'd say they cannot work onshore because it just substitutes a transparency problem with a much more complex harmonization problem for rules across borders, which creates new arbitrages and political leverage points. The offshore situation we've had for a couple hundred years now is a case of better the devil you know. The rules in haven countries are established, clear, and provide a foundation for all the value in international trade. The only problem is it limits the total dominion of one group via surveillance, which I think is a feature, not a bug.

For Special Purpose Vehicles to work onshore, you need something like income trusts, which barely exist anymore because of people who write articles like the one above. It is a custodian with limited liability that does not pay tax, so that you can hold assets in it and invest them to preserve the availability of the principle after a trigger event. Governments hated them because they diverted money out of income tax flows, and it is more politically expedient to solve revenue problems instead of spending ones. I think this aspect of the system works, and this sort of lazy propaganda needs to be recognized for what it is. I respect there are other views on this, but they should be held to a standard of financial literacy this article did not meet.
I see your point, but I don't think the fact that society has created a dichotomy of hackers means that we should ban all knowledge of hacking.

This might be a better analogy for my feelings on the topic. Abortions are determined to be legal or illegal based on the time you have one. This is the dichotomy that we as a society have created. The method to abort a child at 1 month, and 1 month and 1 day will be exactly the same, but the legallity might be the opposite. Does that mean we need to ban all information on how to have a safe abortion? No, it means we need to enfore the laws already on the books for those having unsafe/ illegal abortions.

The fact that knowledge is abused does not mean it should be censored. And on top of that maybe I want to know how to craft a pair of brass knuckles, or how to program a guidance system for a missle just because I'm curious.
Ofcourse. And banks are never hacked or stolen from
It amazes me how many otherwise intelligent people believe in the bullshit hype of fully-self-driving cars. In reality, a car that can drive you from New York to Boston with zero human intervention as safely as an average human driver is probably several decades away at least.
Fair, but rand() is kinda trashy, and the overwhelming part of that cost is fwrite anyway.
