Because saying "he's dead so this is the end of the matter" is unwise and it's worrying you're even asking this.

. Were other people involved?

. or other organisations such as extremists organisations?

. Did he have people egging him on (even if totally uninvolved otherwise), or was he a complete loner?

. Is there a hidden motive here that's not obvious?

. Further evidence of stable and rational thinking, or mentally unstable?

. Is it possible he was aided by legal loopholes, or some failures in process that need patching?

. Could he have left any nasty surprises behind?

. Does his behaviour indicate something that would allow prediction of similar crimes and perhaps their thwarting?

. Photos/films of something of interest like supporters, discussions of further action, whatever

In this case, once a crime is committed, all info needs to be gathered. I'm saying that as someone who is disturbed at extensions of state powers, but once there's a crime, I'm all for picking up everything and analysing it.
Sure. But he's more worried about people stealing his car.

You could also automate Waze updates ;)
The difference is you scale your microservice across many machines. Sure you could probably do this with Erlang but that's not the kind of perf the parent is talking about

I do agree that there's a striking resemblance between the goals of Erlang and the goals of microservices though.
Greek Artist Takis, Who Used Magnets to Create Pioneering Kinetic Art, Has Died
True, and he started with 1/100,000 second exposure time humming-bird images 83 years ago!

The MIT group used a flash with 0.5us exposure time. I asked for details without answer yet, but assume that it is costly (Vela One does cost 940£) and one-shot, no fast repeating flashes (Vela One has only 50Hz maximal continuous strobe frequency).

I used cheap 2$ 5000lm LEDs with 7$ led driver to convert mains to 38V/1.5A DC. I was able to do global external shutter captures with that led with 4us shutter time, did not try below yet. Most interestingly these LEDs allowed for 8.33us flashes at 9KHz frequency and used that to capture 109m/s flying airgun pellet 10 times in a single multiple exposure frame (9000eps, exposures per second). PI pwm should easily allow for 90,000eps frames for capturing 900m/s 0.50bmg bullets multiple times per frame in flight ...

You can do the same with 6$ Raspberry v1 camera clone (not with v2), bill of materials as well as global external shutter setup, software and example captured frames can be found here:

Come on guys, multiplying by 8 and dividing by 5 shouldn't be that difficult. Worst case scenario, you use your phones to punch it in.

Their DVD catalog is shrinking? Why, from sheer apathy?
That sounds a lot like how current web ads works to me, only with some further optimizations.

Please don't belittle minority languages or societies. While your observation might be suitable, the language is not.

People who define themselves as a member of a minority group tend to be sensitive. Their group might have experienced gruesome oppression. They tend to be hurt quickly.

So you need to be careful in expressing your opinion, especially if you view yourself as the member of one of the majority groups.
The concept of state and corporation should be separate to protect freedom is really a US phenomenon or ideal.

In East Asia, the Japanese model, that later adopted by both South Korea and China, relies on the exact opposite. The government directly involves in guiding and shaping the economy. And they are smart in doing so, with the corporations being their vehicles to implement its policy and they are ones to picking the winners. So it is not like Planned Economy like the Soviets did, instead they are trying to embrace and take advantage of the market to better advance its objectives. Instead, here in US, corporations are more sensitive and faster than the government to propose new economic initiatives, while government just sits aside as the shepherd to prevent disasters.

If you ever being able to read material from CJK countries, the government in general has a much bigger power and responsibility, and when problem happens, the societies' instinct is to push the government to act on it.

But Huawei might be still a special case among of these. It is a weird company though, which doesn't need to respond to its share holders and yet participating actively in open and competitive markets.
I had a sandstorm instance for a while, but stopped using it due to the dwindling community. There are some alternatives now, but the best part about Sandstorm in particular was the small atomic backups for each Web app you had. I haven't seen other system try to abstract above the applications like that...

That's a very 20th century view of propaganda. Modern propaganda doesn't need to be factually incorrect to be effective, it just needs to direct the attention of the audience in a manner that suits the propagandist. You can push pretty much any agenda in a very convincing manner simply by choosing to emphasise or de-emphasise certain facts; we are in many ways more powerfully influenced by what we consider to be important than what we believe to be true.

If you only read reports of vaccine-related harms, it's easy to come to the conclusion that vaccines are a terrible mistake or even a conspiracy, because human brains aren't very good at prioritising the singular fact that vaccines have saved millions of lives over a constant stream of emotive stories. If you only read about the inconsistencies and errors in contemporary reports of the Holocaust, it's easy to come to the conclusion that the whole thing is exaggerated or an outright hoax, because it's just deeply unpleasant to think about six million corpses.

I don't need to lie to you or dictate what you believe, I just need to influence what you pay attention to; if I control your attention, I can guide you towards a conclusion and make you believe that you came to it of your own initiative.
Then you missed the point that the metaphors we use betray a consumerist and militaristic cultural preference, which is why Carpe Diem became Seize the Day. This matters because culture influences our thinking by the metaphors we use.
Okay, so every other year.

Inflation would have gone from $8 to $9.50. And they've lost a lot of content.
Law enforcement needs to go back to old-school detective techniques if they really need that phone data. Encryption is code, code is speech. Encryption keeps banks safe from criminals.

Are we going to go through this for every administration now?

Even if you do not have a problem with giving government keys to, say, the iPhone, then you have to deal with every piece of software someone writes to enable encryption.

You'd literally have to convince every person in the world to not write or use encryption software in "the wrong" ways. And, that's impossible because encryption exists to protect society from criminals. I don't see another way around this.
> That does seem like a much better deal than Netflix.

It depends what the Disney+ catalog is like and whether they infest it with ads, too; ESPN+ has ads, and the Hulu tier in the bundle of the ad-heavy tier. So, it's looking a lot like paying for a package of basic cable channels compared to paying for a premium package with Netflix or HBO. There might be more total content, but it's offset by advertising: what your ad tolerance is will be a big factor in which is better.

Of course, as with basic cable and premium channels, there's no reason one has to win over the other—plenty of people could end up paying for both.
I dunno. AWS documentation covers complicated systems. Sometimes that means that the docs are complicated. I have found them to be thorough. Only issue I have is that search is awful, but using Google fixes that.

If you want high level docs, have you looked at the well architected framework?

https://aws.amazon.com/architecture/well-architected/

I guess I am missing something. Can you point me to some docs that are done well (in your opinion)?
Your last comment seems reasonable. I guess the new rule of thumb should be maps are still fast, but only if you want a generator. If you need a list use a list comprehension.
Literally bit rot. Not restocking discs that have to go out of service. I'm not sure apathy is quite fair. Netflix has been pretty clear their disc business isn't strategic.

Unfortunately, having pretty much put other DVD rental out of business, it means that you're pretty much stuck with buying discs if something isn't available digitally.
Documentation is one of the few "open" area of amazon:
https://github.com/awsdocs

Since it is their job, probably technical writers fix documentation tickets?
Which documentation specifically are you refering to as "poor"?

Videos are a useful complement (thanks!) to documentation, but may not be enough to replace it, especially as reference (for details).

Different users need different documentations: tutorial, reference, specifications, architecture,...

There's a lot of 'Why?'s here, what I feel from this is that the FS can now be a turing-complete system.
This will allow to extend the 'Everything is a file' concept in UNIX (whether it's good or bad is a different question;) to computation.

With BashFS, computation & interaction with other programs is now a file; we can 'open' a appropriate file instead of managing subprocesses anymore!

This (at least to me) blur the difference between UNIX (where everything should be a file) and LispMachines (where everything is a Lisp object).
My way: x1.5 for speed limits, x2 for hikes.
they are operating a real time service that requires near perfect uptime 24/7 and work across multiple timezones in multiple languages, payment methods, and currencies with varying connection speeds. That isn’t easy

It isn’t easy, but there are dozens of companies that have been doing it successfully for 40-50 years. Credit cards, airlines, telcos and more. Those challenges are a matter of meticulous application of well established best practices, and none of those are “tech companies”. I mean, Interflora probably has as good or better uptime than Uber!
Pressed DVDs don't rot. If they get scratched, that's proportional to use, which is proportional to revenue, and shouldn't be a burden to replace.
> Wonder if they will unbundle Disney+ or if this will be the only offering.

Other reporting has indicated they plan to offer Disney+ separately as a standalone, and also as an add-on through Amazon Prime and some other services, the same way HBO Now and some other services are offered.
I'm talking about game exploits, I spoke to some people still in that scene and they say they typically still use PayPal for the protection. According to them, exploits for modern games typically vary from $10 USD to $100 USD, although they go through tonnes of steam accounts in the development process, generally meaning profits are not great. They say it's more for the technical challenge of it.
It is still a communications problem. They want you to do the minimum. If I as a camera person do the real minimum the director will be pleased on set but they will get a heart attack in the editing room.

It easier to give in, take short cuts and produce garbage than explaining them under extreme stress that everything faster will result in nothing.

In my eyes it is comparable and I worked in both industries. The difference is, that as a DOP in film your name will be associated with the mess on the screen, while in IT the link is not that clear. This makes the difference.

And unless your director has a monitor (which they sometimes don’t) they cannot tell at all what you are doing. They wouldn’t even realize if you didn’t even switch the camera on.

I know that film or engineering is more
> This could be pretty cool. Right now you have to drop down to non-portable,

do you ? I've been doing JIT in C++ with the clang api for quite some time already. Sure, it's heavy in terms of "compile time" and binary size increase since you have to ship clang & llvm, but it enables some pretty cool stuff.
I care. Safe nuclear power plants require high quality maintenance and stringent regulations. I'm not too optimistic about social stability (the part of climate change we won't be able to avoid will not help), so I don't want nuclear power plants all around.
Honestly can you explain to me, as an outsider, why this particular theory is a conspiracy and "embarrassing" to even consider, compared to all the other ridiculous shit going around healthcare in the US?

It wouldn't surprise me one tiny bit, given the US' track record with letting corporations do whatever the hell they want to, to people.

I'm not saying it's true, but you can't simply dismiss a theory about the corporate world screwing over the American people with a simple "no way that's too ridiculous to ever happen", any more. Especially if it's directly in line with what the free market would demand, as well as it not happening being contingent on a corporation being "nice" from the good of its "heart".

Please tell me instead that it's false because there is regulation in place, or there is some strong market force making them take the other route.

Because your implied argument would be "that is inhumane and corporations wouldn't do that"--now THAT is embarrassing.
Oh, give it time! Wait for the Chinese economy to be 2x the American one.

I am afraid there's a deal breaker to this interesting idea.

Some languages are in some areas a lot more expressive than English. (Beware of the Blub paradoxon where in programming languages someone doesn't understand concepts not present in the programming language he uses: for natural languages this means that speaker of one language might have some difficulty to grasp the expressiveness of another language.)

This means if there is a language which could describe something more easily than English then you shouldn't deny the possibility of a non-English page.
Am Romanian, we also use Chinese for the same expression. That is most of the times, we also use Turkish, as in: “What it is so hard to understand? Am
I speaking Turkish to you?”
> This has become "true" in just the last ~50 years

No, it's been true that nations are memetic rather than genetic constructs as long as nations have existed, and migration and assimilation have existed and been factors for a much longer time than 50 years. Non-transitory sub-replacement levels of natural population growth may be a recent phenomenon, but the nature of nations being such that such does not tautologically spell doom has been true much longer.
Agreed, it seems like there's an equally good argument for the opposite conclusion (that this experiment makes her less likely than we would have thought). Something like: she's good at mindlessly mimicking things, and pays more attention to the video when it's the trainer she likes.

I’ve seen the application OKRs lead to positive results. But this article is very cargo-culty and makes me think OKRs are becoming the new Scrum, a hype for selling consulting and certification.

In the article, there’s no evidence, just a bunch of statements like a “A good manager is <insert a few arbitrary qualities here>”. Looking it what Happierco is selling, this article is just SEO strategy
DVDs can rot. But, yes, the problem is likely more scratched/broken/lost.

I assume that the vast bulk of Netflix' DVD rentals are new releases just as they were with Blockbuster. So they're essentially a Redbox competitor.

Netflix simply has no interest is servicing a long tail of DVD rentals. And no one else has figured out how to make that long tail profitable either. You're welcome to give it a shot.

Wouldn't that assume that murderers do some kind of random walk, and randomly kill some person they happen to get close by?

I'm sure there are those, too, but IIRC in most violent crime the attacker and the victim know each other. Do people have substantially bigger social circles in cities?
It's interesting how your comment seems to be trying to refute parts of mine... yet says nothing contrary to what I've said, and in fact repeats a lot of it, but in different words

I mean, I didn't imply you can't work in Erlang, and I already stated drawing Ruby-ists isn't a bad thing... so I guess I don't get why anything but the middle paragraph was needed here.
It's textbook dark triad entitlement.

Neurotypicals understand that other people exist as separate individuals. Dark triad types are utterly self=centred and only aware of their own desires and interests.

Other people either satisfy their desires or hinder them - sometimes actively, sometimes just because they're randomly in the way.

The person who frustrates - or even just distracts - a dark triad individual is considered evil. They must be removed, humiliated, punished, or destroyed in some other way.

I wonder how this performs relative to something like HardCopy.
I imagine it's very much a demographic thing. Most people subscribe to things and stick with them. But, especially younger people with less money and more time, are probably more likely to optimize around viewing specific shows.
Do you really believe that Uber is run on a technology stack that is 40-50 years old?

It’s not just real time but streaming data. Handling millions of concurrent trips, and processing all those trips in real time is not something that any of the industries you’ve mentioned do.

>> That way you can't be late on your payments anymore.

Thanks for clarifying. I'm guessing though the meters tend to stay in the homes even after the late-paying tennants have moved out?

>> Wait....that was in the UK? And someone gave you a cheque?

Yes, this was in the UK, in the South East, in 2005. It's been a while so I'm a bit fuzzy on the details but I think what happened was that I didn't have a bank account yet and so I was paid by cheque (thanks). Also, if I remember correctly, I refused to make use of the shops and I subsisted on the money I had in my Greek bank account (that I could access from UK terminals with my Greek bank card) until I got a UK bank account.

Some of my colleagues made use of the shops they recommended to me though, so either they too got paid by cheque or more likely they basically took a loan out on their salaries. Which sounds less mad, but only until you see some of the rates for payday loans (as I gather you must have).
One example is that Volkswagen used to be state-owned until 1960. Afterwards, the federal state of Lower Saxony still kept a stake of slightly more than 20%, which combined with the requirement for 80% shareholder agreement effectively granted them a veto. That only changed in 2013 after it was found to violate EU regulations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Act
All of those probably have huge tech. Imho engineering wise, Uber really needs tech. If you read uber tech posts, you can see the challenges they face. Even if you want to apply so called best practices you need an above average tech team at the very least. The proof is in the failure rate of our industry.

The scary thing about Chinese approach is that it seems actually working.
Poorly, and at great cost. They’re also not developing any new features, and if they do they have a product cycle measured in years if not decades. To say it’s easy to build consistently running real time services in a rapidly changing regulatory and business environment is a bit dismissive I’d say.
Well the Japanese might have copied the product, but they surly built a better more efficient factory than the one that served as inspiration.
You were forced to do until the whole slowing down phone on upgrade scandal. As a direct result of this action, Apple discounted battery replacement until the end of 2018.
The problems of the centralized model is that it is in fact implemented in a distributed setting: there are breakdowns of nodes, there are broken messages, and there may be adversaries who take advantages of their positions.
Australia has already made way for other nations to follow suit this year. We have a history with low gun violence, encryption or lack thereof had nothing to do with that.
