Most of the transistors in a modern computation environment are just sitting there waiting to be touched by an instruction (far, far more transistors in RAM than in the CPUs, overall).... computing prematurely optimized on the wrong architecture.... there's still a lot of room to grow, speed wise.

It's great. It allows you to push the responsibility for checking values are in type right out to the earliest point, reducing the need to sprinkle bounds checking code all over the place. If you are using static analysis like SPARK or one of the others, it then lets you do a load more of it automatically, the constraints it places on values makes it much easier to statically demonstrate runtime properties of the code before.

The phone itself is the VPN Server. Its a trick used for the app to look at some of the network traffic.

Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 app does the same thing but for DNS, to capture the DNS requests from the phone you need to create a "local vpn", but not all your traffic is going though Cloudflare (yet, they do plan to add a VPN to the 1.1.1.1 app at some point).

EDIT: All Custom DNS settings apps for mobile connections on iPhone (I forget if Android is the same) ate like this. I use nextdns and their app does the same.

I think peeps are forgetting the long term impact to one’s career from bouts of long term unemployment. How many bounced right back from 2008? Combine with student debt, rising home prices, and the fact you’re not getting any younger, then in 10 years you’re not 28, but 38. You have a job, but you’re making less at 40 then you did at 30. And you’re not supposed to ‘trust’ anyone over 30. (>_<)
Well, there is no SMB v1 on either, main propagation bug. Next propagation tools are SSH bruteforce, subnet scan for vuln apps, Domain admin creds stored locally and sniffing NTLM hashes from network interface. Again only SSH and app vulns are viable in non-windows.

Here are some utilities I love and use all-the-time on windows. Would love to hear about your tools in the replies.

* Everything: https://www.voidtools.com/

An awesome and terribly fast file finder. You can add a global Shortcut, like WIN+<something>. I use it all the time.

* Licecap: https://www.cockos.com/licecap/

A gif recorder. Useful to spice up your bug reports!

* WinDirStat: https://windirstat.net/

Low on Diskspace? Find out, where it's gone!

* Bulk Rename Utility: https://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk

It's a bit arcane, but it renames everything in every format you can think of with a bit of practice.

* Text Crawler: https://www.filepuma.com/download/textcrawler_3.0.3-9304/

Grep everything in a directory. Use it for complex Regex searches on windows. Unfortunately new versions are limited by a trial.

* Greenshot: https://getgreenshot.org/

The better snipping tool.

* CurrPorts: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/cports.html

The better TCPView

* Process Explorer: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/proc...

> Why a cluster?

For availability. If you have promised 99.9% or more availability to your customers you probably need some sort of redundancy or hot failover. Kubernetes is a good option to get that.

If you don't need 99.9%, simpler is better.

> Too cheap

You can get a single node Kubernetes cluster from Digital Ocean for $10 per month.

That's silly because a single node cluster doesn't have redundancy which is the main reason for Kubernetes, but it lets you get started. A minimum redundant cluster would have two nodes and a $15 load balancer, so $35 per month at DO.

This is a common misunderstanding I see repeated a lot. The idea isn't unshackling big corporations, it's about unshackling small to medium sized businesses and entrepreneurs. Big corps actually love regulations for the barriers to entry they create, and most of them already have a whole host of regulatory compliance teams armed and ready to dissect the next big regulation that comes.

> Americans get stuck with slow and expensive service that becomes relatively worse comparing to other western countries.

Internet speeds in most suburban, and urban locations in the US have dramatically increased as of late due to increased threat of competition (namely Google Fiber, which prompted AT&T to start heavily developing Fiber, which prompted the Spectrums of the world to increase speeds) and could be further accelerated by deregulation. Regulations are actually the primary reason that keeps cable companies in their monopolistic/oligarlistic positions.

As far as I am aware, the only western countries that have surpassed the US in internet speeds and stability for the majority of its populace are actually east, in countries like S.Korea and Japan.

Interestingly enough, Japan is mostly voluntarily self regulated.

That's the same for both Uber and taxi drivers.
At work, and especially when you are new you are at the mercy of others in several ways to an extent that usually eclipses almost anything we expose ourselves to in our lives.

Reviewing can thus be experienced as opening up yourself to critique by essentially anonymous "kingmakers", which at any time can make you look like a clown, if they want to. This experience might not be rational, but I believe it's still extremely common, as an experience.

It's made worse by the fact, that if the review culture is anything else but great, it's not at all unlikely to try and take advantage of that - in one of many ways - in order to feel a bit better about themselves.

At our core most of us are social creatures, and thus most of us easily pick up on that danger/risk, including most that are otherwise not socially adept, as they have usually suffered bullying of some kind and have learned to avoid those exposed situations.
Clash: A modern, functional, hardware description language inspired from Haskell
I think one should separate tech and big-tech. Companies like Facebook and Google deal with user data and that has significant consequences on their behavior. Many people don't see the implications of sharing information with these large companies. And they might even be correct with that as long as they themselves or anyone in their circle is not something of a broader public interest.

Having a digital log of your love life and exchanges can have an impact. That is not an "anti-tech"-assessment. Maybe the article is boring to you, but I see dire need of more

NYT is certainly biased and they have have their own mostly economic incentives regarding big-tech. That has nothing to do with technology itself.

I weep for Solaris Zones and FreeBSD Jails. Granted I don't really have much experience of them, I do have some experience of containers on Linux via Docker but also in constructing a minimal container runtime in C (not OCI compatible or anything), but my point is there was a lot of work in this area before Docker and especially in the case of Zones, freely available today in illumos distributions, are completely overlooked. I mean I could be completely missing something here, but Joyent for example seem to have made some really good innovations with Manta, i.e. spinning up containers to run UNIX pipeline equivalent jobs directly in the cloud on the data, but as with illumos vs Linux, Zones vs Docker and Joyent vs AWS/GCP/Azure, it seems to me a david vs goliath kind of battle, even if the tech is better.
> This inflation also seems like the direct result of the overt policy to erase the natural deflation of manufacturing and technology to keep everyone working "full time", when human labor is needed less and less.

A low minimum wage combined with in-work welfare benefits essentially subsidises labour for employers, and is deflationary. Inflation would be naturally higher if not for such government policy.

No. x -> y && !x does not give !y, it just gives nothing.

The course you refer to and the paper are somewhat different. The course simply says that for a given problem, there are good datasets and bad datasets, and the bad data may be bad no matter how big it is. Bad means biased here.

The paper considers a somewhat different situation. There you have a single dataset, for which you know in advance[1] that some points in it, and you know exactly which, are more noisy than others. The question is then whether to use these points, and how.

[1] But you know this because you assume a model. A particular timeseries model in this case. Its not necessarily in the data itself.
The median survival for me is 5 years! I have just had a stem cell transplant (well my own cells) and it wss hard - if I say hard then it really was and I feel a lot of empathy for those who are not as fit and determined as me. What I am doing is pretty much as before - being with and part of my family and doing a lot of endurance exercise (my other half describes me as a ultramarathon runner - I dont) cycling, running and rowing average 8+ hours a week even while having chemo. As far as I am concerned this high level of exercise is by far the most effective medicine, and also shows everyone that this is a life challenge to be met rather than a disaster. I also get some satisfaction from finding out that people such as one of the doctors taking care of me have now taken up running. ps - if you start doing exercise be carful and get good advice - I have known too many people dying suddenly of male exercise bravado.

>the construction worker can pile his materials in the front trunk on the X too? I mean we only have 4 cars to pick from here.

Where there's a will there's a way. In ~20yr when they're old and cheap the Teslas are gonna make great scrapper cars. All that roof strength and low COG lends itself well to slapping an I-beam on the roof. Obviously a sedan is not a practical work vehicle though.

Too bad Tesla doesn't built their cars with provisions to accept a proper heavy duty roof rack since the vehicle is built to take it. I understand why they don't since that would be an invitation to do all things that would compromise aerodynamics and destroy your range.

Edit: It appears my depiction of poor people doing poor people things with Teslas may have offended some people. I'm not sorry. Nothing you can do will prevent Teslas from moving down the economic ladder with age and mileage just like every other vehicle.
