Depends on who you ask - if the NT kernel were to be made open-source it wouldn't impact Microsoft's sales of Windows because the kernel is useles without the userland - and the real value of Windows derives from the userland Win32 API.

If they mean the entire OS - kernel, userland, shell, the bundled programs that come with it - no, that won't happen, not least because Microsoft doesn't own the rights to all of that code: any third-party licensor could put a stop to that overnight.
PCI requires a forensic investigation after a breach occurs. (Further requirements may exist, I am not an auditor etc.)
Yes, but the parent said "statelessness that makes it easier to TEST". It is not stateless in that sense: purity makes it easier to test. Here you need to mock all interactions with external services, just like you'd do with non-serverless applications.
I would've preferred he phrase it something like "using something like GNU Taler," so that it doesn't look like he's shilling for his own product.
It's funny because the only use case I was considering lambda for was a pure / stateless function. As soon as you add state / side-effects I assume you've greatly increased your complexity and testing (you'd want to have separate tests for all of the inputs / outputs that resemble production... which is when things can get complicated).

I'm probably looking at it wrong I guess. I considered using lambda to unload some CPU intensive calculations / logic and that's it. I figured it would be good for that as long as the latency didn't outweigh any benefits.
This just seems like a strange thing to take issue with, and I suspect it has more to do with your general dislike of him than any problems with the way he's chosen to communicate himself.
I'm not sure I would call a Pocket clone a "bookmark manager".

Because he is genuinely a very smart person compared to most people decrying character flaws as something relevant to distance yourself from. In strict professional circles, this statement alone would have disqualified you already.
Isn't that just TCP (rather than TCP stack).
1. I did attack his ideas as authoritarian. I'm also attacking him as the worst face of the FOSS movement, because if your messenger is shit people assume your movement is shit too.

2. Are you seriously comparing flying to a pedophile sex island to knowingly have sex with a minor to unknowingly watching the wrong vid on PornHub? Is this really the argument you want to post on HN?
> "I don't trust someone that I didn't get drunk with" is a sentiment I've heard repeatedly, both privately and professionally.

That's something I've heard as well, and I tell them that drinking with me is a bad idea, and getting me drunk is even worse. Because that's when my persona slips and my shadow comes out to play -- and my shadow is kinda like Sam Kinison, only not funny.
A Wandering Mind: How Travel Can Change the Way You Think
There is no guarantee that a short meeting will resolve something that has already been the subject of a long discussion, though I will grant that long discussions are often the result of at least one party not paying attention to what the other is saying, and only the intervention of a third party can break that deadlock.

Having one party who only reads the subject line before replying will sabotage any attempt at resolving an issue through email.

AbsCrypt [Chariot Technologies Lab Inc]
AbsCrypt is the first working and fully developed cybersecurity application which based on metaprogramming. We are winners of multiple international competitions and Hackathons in computer science and cryptography. We will start global testing of our encryption in partnership with bugcrowd in October with 100k$ award for researches.Our main advantages over others are:

* High speed, our encryption algorithm are minimum 10 times faster than RSA asymmetric encryption for small documents encryption and more than 100 times faster for big files. The deference depends on size of key&file.You can encrypt and decrypt big media file within a seconds!

* Not only post-quantum, developed for Non-determine Turing machine. Future super and quantum computers won't be able to hack us.

*Our product can be used like hybrid
encryption and also can speed up your prime numbers based encryption like RSA (minimum 30%)

How we can convert if conditions and words into math?

Our main formula is the formula, which can replace logical condition like “if” with a mathematical formula. You can check that we are first, who do it for all data types. Our algorithm can convert a text into math function. In an example we can convert “Hello world!” into math function: https://gist.github.com/timurryspekov/ea32cd1bca74a0910b8d5a698a483dad

The console demo of working metaprogramming algorithm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui7Y8dZPXcw

For the initial proof of working code, I attached a working code to find primes up to 120 and 168 with just one simple loop with simple arithmetic (you can check that it's new way to work with prime numbers and we are first, who do it).

https://gist.github.com/timurryspekov/e7394c24b83ae989749f6000ac6c5cb4 (up to 120)

https://gist.github.com/timurryspekov/3576c1a20fae07b6671aa6fd05943ec5 (up to 168)

I have been a lead devops engineer in my last two companies, both of them with more than 1k VMs on 4+ on prems data centers.

In the first I was on call rotation for a wekend a month for two years and got called twice.

It was 1h of work paid if you didn't called and 4h if the phone rings, if you worked for more than 4h it than went straight to a full day.

Currently I am on call and only get paid if called, but, my manager only calls me on critical situations, have been called 2 times in a year and 7 months. If I get called I get half day of work paid.
Yes like the French Revolution and the wide, friendly... democracy nets. Come on.

I think you're making too big a deal of this. I would be really surprised if there's a flag ring going on considering the karma you need in order to be able to flag and articles about the environment are on the FP all the time.

Are oyster farms good business? I would think at the price you pay for them it would be a pretty sustainable venture. I just watched the episode of The Chef Show where they visit the California oyster farm and talk about how oysters filter up to 50 gallons of water a day. It didn't seem like there was a ton of labor cost, and obviously incredibly beneficial for the environment. It would be great to see them subsidized by the government but I'm curious why they don't exist in greater numbers already. I for one love oysters and would very much like to see more west coast varieties here in Toronto :)

My wife and I were on a 10 hour flight to Tokyo earlier this year and we happened to sit next to a lady with unbelievable resolve to keep the window open.

It was a very big plane and in our portion of the plane, every other window was closed (several dozen). We debated asking her to shut it, but decided she must have her reasons.

For a flight that was supposed to have a sleep segment, we were quite grumpy to realize this wasn’t going to be possible.
>Bender thinks OLPC might have struck more deals if it had focused less on technical efficiency. “Every conversation we ever had with any head of state — every time — they said, ‘Can we build the laptop in our country?’” he says. “We knew that by making the laptop in Shanghai, we could build the laptop [to be] much less expensive. And what we didn’t realize was that the price wasn’t what they were asking us about. They were asking us about pride, not price. They were asking us about control and ownership of the project.” OLPC had created a computer that could withstand dust and drops, but it hadn’t accounted for political messiness.

I have the latest Windows insiders build on a spare machine. I've found all the aws tooling including SAM works pretty well under WSL 2 now that WSL uses a true Linux kernel.

Those were solved problems long ago. And then we did them all over again leading to the mess we have today.

I don’t think that’s going to be a happening argument given his pedo apologist comments.
> You sitting at the computer will identify your experiences as those that "you" experience, not those of the computer you. Conversely s/physical you/digital you. Both entities are you (had the same past experiences) and only one is (has the current experiences), at the same time. The one is because "you" is composed out of your experiences. If you can't experience it, well it is not really part of your identity.

Ah, but that only really works if our memory is perfect and continuous, which we know it isn't. If I get black-out drunk and do something, I might have no memory of it whatsoever. It is not part of my current experience even in memory form. That doesn't mean it was someone else who did that thing though, does it? This is not all that dissimilar from the computer copy example.

What I'm trying to show is that concept of self cannot be made concrete. Any definition you use will be an approximation based on a gut feeling of how things are as opposed to logical deduction. Right now, if I understand your reasoning, you're saying that having two entities existing simultaneously (in so far as such a word is applicable in a relativistic spacetime) with a completely identical memory are separate beings, but you do extend that definition to encompass beings who do not share temporal locality. But why not? A copy of me existing at the exact same moment as me is very much more objectively identical to me than my 10 year old self, but the latter case is considered to be the same person and the former is not. I haven't seen any explanation for why this should be the case, merely a description of how we feel it is the case. Which is the point really: self is not an objectively definable property, but rather a fluid construct of the mind.
If you are comfortable with React, look at GatsbyJS. It is pretty amazing what you can build into a static site.

Does AWS let me spin up containers as fast as it lets me spin up lambda processes? I've never seen that but then they do add things regularly.
Can't agree more. One example is CI/CD through docker image, building image / deploying container may take ten to thirty minutes long. It's a hindrance for quick bugfix / tempering on test server.

They could open source the Windows kernel, and it wouldn't change anything.

Just like OSX is based on Darwin which is Open Source, and Android is based on Linux, that doesn't provide any more freedom for users or encourage interoperability.
>tumours of kids from Belarus who suffer due to the accident

Sounds like bullshit to me. There's no way to tell if it's due to the accident, and the statistics of such cases are not conclusive. And of course it's a German organization, which is a country known to be irrationally anti-nuclear, burning brown coal just to offset the closed nukes which had zero impact on the environment.
Didn't the airline provide blindfolds?
Valuation is based on what percent of shares an investor buys for how much. eg; if I buy 5% (0.05) of a company for 100$. The company valuation would be 100 / 0.05 = 2000$.

It can be a little more complicated with post and pre buy valuation, but that is the general idea.
Indonesia haze causes sky to turn blood red
Heroku is just an easier way to deploy to servers. It doesn’t scale down to zero, scale up as needed, etc. You still have distinct servers that you know about, can manage. S3, Fargate (Docker), DynamoDB, even SNS/SQS are considered Serverless by AWS’s nomenclature.
We had to show results in a short period of time and focus on the top priorities of the parents and teachers which boiled down to belong their kids not fail out of school in the early grades.
You can focus on nurturing autodidacts but you will never have more than a handful of anecdotal successes in the short run at best. And you need more than anecdotes to keep educational projects alive. Further, educators run the school. If you want an educational project to be successful, You live and die by their support.

Yep. I'm seriously pissed off that stuff that worked and that did not require anybody's helping hand keeps being broken without any reason and that I'm forced to eat this crap for the sake of being able to run a reasonably secure distro that I can also use for CUDA and every day stuff such as email and web browsing. The whole 'if it isn't broken don't fix it' mantra is one that I strongly subscribe to, alas, more often than not an 'upgrade' in fact turns out to be a downgrade from what was there before modulo some eye candy that I didn't ask for either.
Suit yourself, cheaper shellfish for me then.

I'm sure farming them en-masse probably isn't great for the local ecosystem but it sounds like there's a long way to go before historical concentrations are reached let alone surpassed.
Have you tried reaching out to the linux netdev mailing list about this? They may at least be able to explain their design decision.

The true cost of any product is the project lifecycle cost. There are many cases where a serverless architecture would cut down on that.
Hi there. This is really neat. It reminds me of a talk I listened to recently on digital privacy, where the guy was using the price of "privacy products" as a way to measure how much people value their privacy. This seems like it would be one of those.

Did you find that there's one single variable, like length or the presence of certain words, that the system relies on heavily?

From the article:

• Driving the news: Neuroethicists are sounding the alarm.

• Earlier this month the U.K.'s Royal Society published a landmark report on the promise and risk of neurotechnology, predicting a "neural revolution" in the coming decades.

• And next month Chilean lawmakers will propose an amendment to the country's constitution enshrining protections for neural data as a fundamental human right, according to Yuste, who is advising on the process.

• A major concern is that brain data could be commercialized, the way advertisers are already using less intimate information about people's preferences, habits and location. Adding neural data to the mix could supercharge the privacy threat.

• "Accessing data directly from the brain would be a paradigm shift because of the level of intimacy and sensitivity of the information," says Anastasia Greenberg, a neuroscientist with a law degree.
I would have killed for the handcrank during the G1G1 days, but it turns out it wasn't _completely_ vapourware. I finally saw a working one at Linux SCaLE 17x years after the fact, so I'm assuming some small number must actually have been produced.

It wasn't practical, but I still love the concept.

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

>Negroponte was born to Dimitrios Negrepontis (Greek: Νεγροπόντης), a Greek shipping magnate and alpine skier, and grew up in New York City's Upper East Side. He has three brothers. His elder one, John Negroponte, is the former United States Deputy Secretary of State. Michael Negroponte is an Emmy Award-winning filmmaker. George Negroponte is an artist and was President of the Drawing Center from 2002 to 2007.

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

As long as Nicholas Negroponte was in the business of white-washing people's horrible reputations in exchange for cash in proportion the the number of innocent lives they've ruined, he could have at least hit up his own brother for a few trillion dollars. That would have bough a lot of $100 laptops, or even built a lot of laptop factories.
I think he's mistaken Cyprus for Greece. I can't find reference to Greece having a "bail-in". As far as I know the only place it happened in the Euro banking crisis was Cyprus. If I'm reading the correct bit of wikipedia:

> "Remaining good assets and deposits below €100,000 with Laiki Bank would be saved and transferred to Bank of Cyprus (BoC), while shareholder capital would be written off, and the uninsured deposits above €100,000 – along with other creditor claims – would be lost to the degree being decided by how much the receivership subsequently can recover from liquidation of the remaining bad assets. As an extra safety measure, uninsured deposits above €100,000 in BoC will also remain frozen until a recapitalisation has been implemented (with a possible imposed haircut if this is later deemed needed to reach the requirement for a 9% tier 1 capital ratio)"

It was not a tax by the state. It was the other way round: it was the refusal (or rather inability) of the state to act as lender of last resort and cover a private company (in this case a bank) which had gone insolvent.

The average Cypriot, not having €100k in their bank account, was not affected. Some local business owners were. The majority of victims were those using Cyprus as a tax haven due to its low corporation tax rate: https://www.taxjustice.net/2017/10/26/21561/

Can anything store value without having another use, even if its supply is fixed? Would the demand for precious metals and precious metal money as a store of value disappear without the industrial, cosmetic and artistic demand for precious metals?
> But MS were, at the time, against all things open source.

This may or may not be the case, insofar as an organisation can be said to have a position on a vague notion.

As per the article, rms is seeking that:

"Publicly take back Microsoft's attacks on copyleft made in the 2000s. Ballmer called the GPL a "cancer"."

I suspect rms doesn't care terribly much if MS were 'against all things open source' since no one really did, or does, know what that might mean.
Agreed. Portland's light rail is quick until you get to downtown, where it shares the road with cars. Where I lived at one point, taking the bus was much faster. Additionally every train line has to cross one particular bridge, which is a massive choke point. A subway or elevated would be much quicker.

> Yes like the French Revolution and the wide, friendly... democracy nets. Come on.

The French Revolution was most violent event of its time with many fractions fighting against each other and was followed by dictatorships.
thing about transistors is that it's easy to have many transistors on the same IC behave in set ratios of each other (By changing the transistor width and length ratio, etc), but getting a performance metric exactly controlled is fairly difficult (not saying it's not possible, just something you try to avoid because cost, reliability and yield).

I'd imagine any hypothetical implementation of a NN will be fairly difficult because of that.

Also achieving linearity cheaply (especially multiplication) is very difficult.
And it still seems to last a single move. I hate this disposable culture.
Good jokes are.

I notice some jokes, especially on Facebook etc., where the punchline is far too early and it feels like they're obnoxiously drilling the joke home. It's also the same when you have someone make a reference in a comment thread, then the next person continues the reference with less subtlety.
