I think you still missed the point. I'm not arguing with your conclusion, but the way you "prove" it.

Keep in mind the topic is "how is China able to provide enough food for 1.4 billion people", which implies they must have some efficient or cheap way. And I'd agree "rice" probably is one of the reason.

However, you firstly used "Shanghai's white-collar" as an example, which is the least representative group for this topic (because how cheap the food is is less of a concern for the high-income groups).

You also mentioned obesity, which only dramatically increases when China got richer. Again, totally irrelevant to the topic. If anything, Chinese people probably eat less rice now due to the increase of variety.
Well, it's how our species survive the 2 millions years so far.

Could you please tell with what exactly you disagree.
BIRD is a BGP daemon. Autonomous Systems exchange routing information via BGP and calculate the best route to a given destination. It’s dynamic because routes are updated via the protocol and the preferred route selection algorithm, instead of managed manually with, say, the route command.

BGP can also be used inside an AS and some container networking solutions (e.g. kube-router for kubernetes) also use it.
Human-animal experiments are done for quite some time. Cloned mice receive tumor grown on human derived tissue so-called xenografts. And it's immensely helpful in checking whether certain drugs work.

Oh man. That sounds like a mess.
short description: dynamic routing (as opposed to static routing) allows routers to select forwarding paths based on current topology of a network that they are part of. change in network topology automatically (automagically?) updates routing information and better paths for forwarding are recomputed.

this is primarily accomplished by running a routing protocol which allows ‘adjacent’ routers to exchange routing information, f.e rip, ospf, bgp etc.

with static routing, a more ‘hands on’ approach is required...
Your example is not addressing the point the parent made. Users definitely expect free updates to new OS versions with all the bells and whistles this version supports. They also definitely expect bugfixes. Nobody mentioned changing design here.

I can guarantee you that inboxes of all iOS developers who have not implemented dark mode will fill up the first day iOS 13 is released to public.

Heck, people expect your app to work on the first beta and will complain if it does not.
Effective Digital Marketing
How do you do effective digital marketing for early stage companies apart from using paid ads? Content marketing seems to be extremely saturated now, what are some of the other techniques that one should use?

Personally I focus alot on backlinks, and thought its effective only to a certain extent. What are some ideas available to bring you digital marketing game to the next level?

Many thanks,

Can you be forced to sign anything like this? I would never sign such a document out of my free will (what's the upside?). Tax law is so complicated that I wouldn't be surprised if nearly everyone is not super 100% in compliance. I mean completely independently of this particular Bitcoin issue.
YMMV but to me Mojave works way better than High Sierra on my 2009 MBP
The internet "works" because, ultimately, core routers have adjacency to other core routers. Everyone propagates knowledge of their adjacency, and you end up having complete paths to every other network.

A routing daemon speaks one or more routing protocol to build a table of routes. That can be used for various purposes, including programming the host's own routing table (bird runs on UNIX-like OSes) or other implementations can update a special kind of memory called a CAM (think something like a hashtable in silicon) an ASIC on a router/route switch uses.

Check wikipedia for BGP and peering and you should have what you desire.

OpenBitTorrent – An Open Tracker Project
Very true. I've experienced a bit of this first-hand.

Growing up, I, my father, and my paternal grandfather all shared the same first name and last name, and all lived within a couple of miles of each other (my father and I obviously lived in the same residence a big chunk of my childhood, and grandpa lived just a short hop away). Our mail (and gosh knows what else) got mixed up all the time.

To make it even worse, I'm one of those people who chooses to use my middle name, not my first name, as my primary name. So while "legal" correspondence often comes addressed one way, sometimes even that gets mixed up, and phone calls are always weird when I answer "Hi, this is Phil" and the person on the other end goes "Oh, sorry, I was calling for $FIRST_NAME". <click>

And to make this whole story even weirder, my maternal grandfather's middle name (which is what he went by) was the same as the first name shared by me, my dad, and my paternal grand-father. So yeah, we had four family members in a very small area, sharing confusingly similar names.

Naming stuff definitely gets weird.

In case the author sees this, a correction: the ziggurat is 105 meters on a side, not 105 square meters. This makes the ziggurat's base more accurately around 10 thousand square meters.
Single threaded, NumPy offers basically the same syntax and speed as Fortran when it comes to vector operations. Therefore, the slides boil down to "CoArrays being the Fortran killer application".

I don't feel this is the whole truth. You can (and many people do) write a modern Fortran MPI-CoArray application for HPC and it can be slim, compile and run fast. No big ecosystem, like a small C application. The same is most likely not true if you include Python in your toolchain and then use some FFI to call C or Fortran in performance critical sections. As the author, you might be able to hide the ugliness (such as Numpy does it), but it can be a show stopper for maintainability and future generations working with the code. That's probably why still so many new HPC codes are pure Fortran/C codebases and Julia or Python remains the language for postprocessing data on workstations.
Note that (if I counted correctly) 2 of them are the official first name, 2 are some variation of the first name and 3 are nicknames unrelated to the first or family name.
That sounds like adding a heuristic which works most of the time which is something I can see myself doing to cover some pathfinding issue in a game where it's sufficient if it works 99,9% of the time or when working on a simulation where I can look on the result data afterwards and can see if something looks highly unusual despite the heuristic and improve it iteratively - a luxury you don't get with air planes, at least not without casualties. Additionally given the very limited computing power of the hardware in the 737 adding even more software to it might create even more problems.

> Ancestry, name, deeds, place.

Those are of course all there in the Greek, but the order is different:

Κύκλωψ, αἴ κέν τίς σε καταθνητῶν ἀνθρώπων
ὀφθαλμοῦ εἴρηται ἀεικελίην ἀλαωτύν,
φάσθαι Ὀδυσσῆα πτολιπόρθιον ἐξαλαῶσαι,

Cyclops, if any mortal man should ask you about the shameful blinding of [your] eye, declare Odysseus the city-sacker to have blinded [you], the son of Laertes, [who has] a home in Ithaca.

Name, deeds, ancestry, place.

On the other hand, it's quite normal in Homer for a character to be identified solely by ancestry, even where that information cannot unambiguously identify anyone. So Menelaus and Agamemnon, who are brothers, are both commonly referred to as Atreides ("the son of Atreus").

Meanwhile in the future you can't even listen to music without enabling that attack vector, so you can bet everyone has it enabled 24/7.

And I really don't think bluetooth has or ever will be close to regular networks in terms of security maturity. It's like USB, it's so bad there really isn't much point in trying to fix it anymore.

Windows has great backwards compatibility but at the cost of acxumulating legendary amount of cruft. It also means that if you develop new entreprise software you have to use ancient frameworks.

On Linux retrocompatibility is handled at the source code level. So stuff will work as long as you are ready to compile your own old versions of all libs in a chroot somewhere. Trying to run even a few months old binary will often fail.

Mac is similar to Linux but the burden of recompiling is on the developers. Many applications ship an old version that you can run on some Eldritch version of macos.

If you introduce a cloud component everything breaks unless you are ready to support multiple versions of your DB.

No wonder so many entreprise devs fled to evergreen web apps.

Retrocompatibility was a given because it was relatively easy.
Aside from billing, some sort of combined UX, browse/search/discovery and platform support would be important.

Honestly, I wonder if this is somewhere device manufacturers could get an edge. They already have to build the integrations for their individual platforms, so they could wire them together into an interface which says "I just want to watch Black Lagoon, not worry about whose catalog it's in this week."

I wonder if the money people would pay for "the slickest smart TV experience on the market" exceeds the kickback for putting the hard-coded Netflix and Amazon remote buttons, which only serve to reinforce the silos.
I love this idea of “planning to start”.

The most successful projects I’ve worked on have been the ones that started with very small teams building configurable components that were later scaled up into much larger systems through configuration.

The least successful (IMHO) have been where instead of “planning to start” and starting small, senior stakeholders have thrown large numbers of resources at the project too early when the shape of the work was poorly understood. The result is massive amounts of technical debt that rarely gets fixed. Classic Fred Brookes Mythical Man Month stuff[1].

What’s been interesting to observe is that even when those involved had read and could quote the Mythical Man Month they still made the same mistakes.

This makes me think of how systems, as modelled in the Beer Game[2], have a tendency to go chaotic even when the players know what’s going to happen and in theory should be able to avoid that... but still don’t.

So that leads me to the thought that maybe start ups succeed because even if they lack collective experience they also lack the resources to screw things up early in the development process.

I wonder how much startup successes are linked to the founder’s ability to « mise en place »?

I see the notion as often neglected by the layman and quietly mastered by the experts in many fields. I’m struck by how much it is important in so various fields :

-maths with problem and variable

-surgery with room setup and instruments preparation at least

-debating where setup and writing is a large part of the work

-as stated cooking with « mise en place »

-obviously war with

-...etc

I’m also curious about diminishing returns : when does it becoming useless to prepare more ?

Is it also a trending subject or just myself discovering a new concept and seeing it everywhere ?

I would be happy to learn about real world experiences on the subject !

Ask HN: Am I crazy to distrust the CNCF?
If you've got a tin foil hat close by this would be the time to put it on.

I've vaguely distrusted the CNCF for a long time now. While I like the majority of what they're doing (helping fund and manage open source projects), it's never sat right to me... Companies don't move out/donate large sums out of pure altruism, and the consistent and persistent (successful) branding attempts everywhere, really trying to burn the word "CNCF" and the marketing term "cloud native" into your mind, and sheer amount of projects they're funding/supporting in some way smacks of the VC-backed "high-growth" startup play that never pans out as well for customers as it does for VCs/early founders.

Up until now, I've vaguely thought their goal was only establishing themselves as the de-facto standard for "cloud computing", basically spreading massive good will now so they can reap the rewards later, and signalling themselves to big companies. However it just dawned on me that the actual goal might be subtly influencing free/open source products via their "graduation"/standardization process. Projects that deserve to "graduate" will essentially have to bend to "standards" set by the CNCF/Linux Foundation and resulting their top backers to them the most.
Some follow up thoughts (too long for initial post)

Even though the Linux Foundation is a non-profit, just like Mozilla (quite possibly the software company I trust the most), Mozilla is also kind of well known for being mismanaged -- what about a company that's basically only doing management (and doesn't have products they must look after, per say). It's not certain that the Linux Foundation has similar issues but Mozilla at least has the need to turn a profit/install more browsers/make things that people want as an incentive but the Linux Foundation just basically sells itself. This is also kind of evident in the Linux Foundation's extremely confusing hyperledger group of blockchain technologies -- this seems like the kind of move that hype-driven VC backed companies make, not slow-and-steady trustworthy ones.

What triggered this was watching a NATS[0] presentation where they mentioned being taken in by the CNCF and adding multi-tenancy -- this seems like a feature corporate users would ask for (which isn't inherently bad), and then it occurred to me that what if this is the effect of having the CNCF be involved was -- worrying more about "large scale" than just writing bulletproof, featureful software.

This is kind of in line with the whole corporate co-opting of "open source" (which often is confused with "free" software), and capitalistic runs on developer mindshare via wosshing products (I think I just invented this term), but that's even more tinfoil-y.

It's clear that I'm being paranoid, but I'd love if someone could help with some counter points to help me by maybe shining some light on what value alignment/adoption by the CNCF is bringing them and whether they did (or didn't) have to swallow any weird decisions because of it. Am I just totally off the mark?

Fair enough. There’s obviously software that goes back decades and we all benefit from the great backwards compatibility of MS or Linux.

But: How useful is your copy of Windows 98 these days? Can you collaborate with others with your copy of Photoshop 5.0 or Office 2003? Can you easily install Quake I on a modern machine without hassle?

> Ask yourself this...

It depends. I see your point and you are right to a certain extend. But then I see lots of people asking for new features or are glad about new capabilities the app now offers. I’d say it depends a lot on the type of software.

> competition is no longer an effective protector of the customer's best interests.

Why? You still get to buy some software or use your iPhone 3GS. It’s just a security thing. Or did you expect free updates to your OS?

The buy-once-use-forever software doesn’t really work, because software is rarely isolated like some Linux CLI tools from the 80s. You need to have security updates or collaborate with people by sharing files. Someone wantsnew features and change, others don’t. At least under the new model, you get to use software for a low price if you don’t use it that much (Adobe cloud is what, 10 bucks a month compares to 600 upfront?).
