There isn't anything to do with that much bandwidth.

It's another space where there's a consumer product and consumers have been taught that the bigger number is better, so you advertise a 1000Mbps service and consumers think it's worth more than your competitor's 500Mbps when in reality although those numbers are "true" they're irrelevant.

Eventually consumers get jaded and learn to ignore the number, the way you'll see nobody cares when you tell them your "hi res" audio is 96kHz at 24 bits - CD audio with 44.1kHz at 16 bits was more than enough, more isn't better for ordinary users so they eventually learned to ignore it‡.

I had Gbps Internet access in 1998, and in 2015 I was buying new service for my new home. Should I buy the cheap 40Mbps package? A bit extra for 80Mbps? Or spend a lot more for 1Gbps? And I knew, which most consumers don't, that it didn't matter, 40Mbps is fine, once in a while 80Mbps would be slightly better (maybe a new video game downloads in 10 minutes rather than 20 minutes) and 1Gbps would just make some numbers bigger that I'd show off once in a while but make no actual concrete difference. So I bought the 40Mbps service, no regrets.

The main practical things 1Gbps will do for you is avoid buffer bloat since there's less need for a buffer, but you could also do that by just buying hardware that doesn't have buffer bloat.

‡ If you are a recording studio you might actually want 24-bit, and maybe at a pinch even 96kHz, but ordinary consumers needn't care. Likewise somewhere like a school definitely wants 1Gbps networking, but my mother needn't care.
People seem to forget that the manufacture of the final saleable product is but a fraction of the cost to produce the product. While the individual saleable item might be cheap to manufacture, there are many more expenses that are paid for through the sale of the product. Licensing and production definitely costs, but there are other day-to-day expenses as well. The office staff that is not production, but is necessary to keep the facilities functioning also must be considered (HR, secretaries, assistants, legal, janitorial, etc).

The article didn't seem to go into regulatory issues at all. I'm not qualified to speak to the technical merits of LIDAR versus computer vision systems. But coming from a business planning background, and considering the fact that global rules surrounding LIDAR's use in consumer products can be charitably called "a patchwork", it seems to me that computer vision systems would be far easier to implement in a product designed for global export than LIDAR systems.

It's a great idea, but I can't believe that the market is that large for this kind of data for 2 reasons: 1 - there's certainly a point of diminishing returns; and 2 - having good, clean data that's proprietary is a _huge_ differentiator. If I am the leader in autonomous driving, I doubt I'd want to pay someone else to help them train models that will help my competitors.

The problem I see with wading into other subfields (like my own) that need high quality training datasets, is that the datasets may be proprietary, and may not really overlap that much between companies in the same industry. For example, assembly line datasets for companies making almost the same product may be vastly different. I'm really struggling to see how you can possibly achieve the same scale in other industries.

When I have multi-tenant shared servers that are regularly experiencing low memory conditions, that's now one of the first things that I turn off. I set sysctl vm.oom_dump_tasks=0 and vm.oom_kill_allocating_task=1, because without those and a comfortable amount of swap, I've found the likelihood that a rogue process uses up all the memory and the system becomes completely unrecoverable without power cycling, seemingly goes way up.

The way that the score is calculated, as I understand it, the processes with large memory footprints that are not particularly long-running, and especially not owned by root, are the most likely to be killed. My shared servers are running unicorn for Rails apps, so they almost all look the same under that lens.

I want the process with the runaway memory usage to be killed, so that person becomes aware of the problem when they find their app is down. (There are many better ways to solve this, but in our current system design, there's nothing to tell us that a service is down, so killing some other disused service means it's down until some user comes along and is impacted.) It seems like killing the process that made the last allocation is the most likely way to get this behavior I'm looking for, where the failures are noticed right away.

But I'm not convinced I've fixed anything, even if the behavior characteristics seem better, and I haven't had any servers going rogue and killing themselves lately, I am not the sysadmin, I'm pretty sure the sysadmin just comes and makes the machine over-provisioned so this doesn't happen again, which seems to be the best advice out there. And as I've learned from the discussion around this article, the fact of having a fast SSD on which paging stuff out and expiring it from the swap, all happens fast enough to look almost as memory, almost completely neuters the OOM anyway.

Our whole situation is wrong, don't even get me started; I'd like to solve this with containers, where we can set a policy that says "all containers must have memory request and limit" and thanks to cgroups, this problem never comes back.

This is huge, especially because of the 20-year freeze that just thawed.

On Jan. 1, 2019, all books, movies, and music published in 1923 entered the public domain. It was the first time since the 1990s that anything new entered the public domain, because Congress had extended the length of copyright protection.

If, as the article says, about 80 percent of books published between 1923 and 1964 are also in the public domain, then it's as if 40 years of creative works just came crashing through like a tidal wave to wipe out that 20-year draught!

And perhaps even more important than free access to the works themselves is the ability to adapt and transform these works without restriction. Think about all of the characters from those books that can now become the stars of new stories!

One thing worth pointing out, however, is that the 80 percent of books that did not have their copyright terms renewed are likely to be books that were not commercially successful, so their authors or designees had no strong financial interest in keeping the copyright protected. So don't expect to find many of the most famous works published during this period in the list. Nevertheless, I would not be surprised if there are some true gems that, for whatever reason, did not have their copyright terms renewed, and I'm excited to try to find them!

There is an ongoing programme to upgrade EO lines to have their mini-cabinet so they can get vDSL. You are an inadvertent casualty of "unbundling". To promote competition the Exchange is allowed to have equipment from other providers in it (most exchanges have only one or two other FTTC providers, many have none) and that _could_ be ADSL and so the interference from VDSL _could_ break that, violating the unbundling rules, so, they just don't offer VDSL.

It would be technically easy to give you VDSL, it would just break a rule that was put in place to ensure competition for ADSL service, which you now don't care about because even that close to the Exchange it's only giving you 8/1
That's a problem as old as voting. I didn't say it invalidated democracy at it's core.

It's not terribly unlikely for some combination of first-name|last-name|initials|shortened-name to be available in `.com`. I've registered myself and a few friends/family for emails that way.

I already gave an example of APIs that do this - pretty much all COM APIs use HRESULT. I do not know why not everyone does this as i'm not everyone and as such i cannot tell what sort of considerations (if any) were going on. At best i can make some guesses.

BTW curl does seem to do what i wrote above, for example `curl_easy_init` returns a `CURL` object on success or NULL if there was an error [1] and `curl_easy_perform` returns a `CURLcode` value [2] that looks like it is used across the API to indicate errors.

That's a pretty good description of my effective parenting strategy. I've always stated that my goal was to raise kids who could make good decisions as adults. To that end I've tried to err on the side of being more permissive while using potentially corrupting influences as teaching opportunities.

That said, I don't pretend that my approach would have worked in all situations. For example, you gave your son a choice about being aggressive with his XBox with a threat that he would have to stop completely. What if you had to follow through on your threat because your son escalated his aggression?

Sometimes, some kids need an adult to make a decision for them that their brains just aren't mature enough to make.

Sure, many the American megacorps are using the government for their own sake. That's exactly proving why US is such a crony state, where big corps are protected from competition by a huge apparatus of bureaucracy.

What's your point? If they use the government it's not the government's fault? Government is literally a mean of establishing oligopolies and shifting the bargaining balance from people to corporations.

It might happen, but it is exceptionally rare. The impact of introducing voter ID laws would cause a far larger decrease in election validity due to voter suppression than postal voting fraud causes.
What is the solution here?

Are you recommending a swap space be created automatically on behalf of the user?

One could also use compressed memory (`zram`).
> Any userspace process can see how low the memory is though

How, exactly?

Or put another way, how do you reliably tell apart "we are seriously thrashing" and "resident memory is getting close to the physical memory limits but there is plenty of totally cold stuff to swap out and it won't be a problem" from userspace? The kernel is the only thing that can make that determination somewhat reliably.

Averages can be deceiving. Plenty of places in Berlin and Germany have great internet connections.

> Few programs can handle a fail return from "malloc"

Fewer than should, that's for sure, but hardly a trivial number. A lot of old-school C programs are very careful about this, and would handle such a failure passably well. Unfortunately, just about every other language tends to achieve greater "expressiveness" by making it harder to check for allocation failure. How many constructors were invoked by this line of code? By this simple manipulation of a list, map, or other collection type? How many hidden memory allocations did those involve? I'm not saying such expressiveness is a bad thing, but it does make memory-correctness more difficult and so most programmers won't even try.

As the world moves more and more toward "higher level" languages, returning an error from malloc becomes a less and less viable strategy. Might as well just terminate immediately, since "most frequent requester is most likely to die" is better than 99% of the OOM-killer configurations I've ever seen.
You keep saying things like "... who is the intolerant one." in response to my point that the position or capability of intolerance is not limited to only "one" party. "Multiple" vs. "one".

Harm is often quite real. Not unlike intolerance. That was my point.

What regulations would you propose? Ad-tech is doing what advertising does, only better. They've taken the industry to its logical conclusions; a catastrophic surveillance system deployed to sell you shit.

The problem isn't ad-tech, it's not the surveillance, it's not even the data leaks or viruses; advertising itself is the problem. There's no amount of regulation that is going to make it "good," at best, it will remain a tumor on our free market system until it is excised once and for all. That is, assuming it doesn't kill it outright in its seemingly endless race to the bottom.
Unfortunately, the fork/exec method of spawning processes doesn't work for memory heavy processes (such as say a java server) without overcommit and copy-on-write memory. Not that I think fork/exec is the best method to spawn processes, but it is the standard way in unix-like systems.

It takes time, lots of meetings and boring back and forth questions. I want to change that.

So I tried to automate this process.

The reason for all the meetings and questions is that the designs you're working from are ambiguous, and you don't really have enough information to turn the design files in to working code. I can't quite see how a deep learning model solves that problem. By the sounds of it you've automated turning the original, ambiguous, wrong designs the you have at the start in to code and tried to remove the discussion process that takes those files and turns them in to the right solution to the customer's problem. This is not going to lead to better front end code.
