Fuck you! thats my response to that spineless response.

Thank you for validating my decision to not recommend Chef for quite some time. I used to be quite a big fan of chef, mostly with chef-solo/zero.

This company has stagnated and has not released anything innovating for quite some time. You are a stale tool that deserves to wither into the ether.

And now you choose to support an organization that treats humans worse than garbage.

Heres me kicking the door shut, hoping it hits you on the way out.
I disagree with that implication. Refusing to do business with ICE in this context is just saying that their actions are so bad that they cannot support that level of evil. All that implies of the people they continue to work is they don't meet that threshold of evil. It's not a black and white thing.

By this logic no one can ever take a stand, lest they be criticized for being inconsistent in the application of their principles. Gotta start somewhere, no?
And imagine all of the benefits we get from only 2.5%.

More migration - the smartest researchers in photovoltaics can move to a city where they can make a bigger impact, and still visit their families. Even without migrating, researchers can collaborate across continents.

Increases economic productivity - when production stops at a nuclear plant, you can fly in parts/personnel quickly.

Economic development - if you couldn't fly in technical experts to China, how could you source components from there? Imagine how expensive lithium batteries would be if all components were made in western (expensive) countries. Teslas are fairly expensive, and they already source many parts from China.

The solutions for climate change requires technology and money. Why kill the economy with draconian measures? We need this economy to produce the solutions.

> Under the logic of this court decision, I should be able to buy a Eurail pass, ride on a train, mail it to a friend, the friend pays me for the pass, then that friend can take the train, then re-sells it to me, then I can use it, and so on. Right? Isn't that what this decision is saying?

Since when was a train ride considered "goods"? Pretty sure a train ride is a "service" and not "goods".

This is a serious claim, do you have any evidence to support it?
I agree with you there big time. You can virtually attend a conference. FaceTime with grandma from her deathbed is not an acceptable alternative.

Kicking the price of this kind of policy down to individual consumers is a great way to just make everyone really mad and get more money from business customers who will still go on not-strictly-necessary trips.
No. DHS would not reform. But at least Chef would no longer be complicit.
Do you mean some way of integrating donation requests by extension devs?
What ability does Chef have to change family separation and detainment? These things would still be happening if ICE had to go back to whatever they were using before Chef.
I think the problem is that NodeJS has a weird culture where a separate package is created for every little thing, then tons of other packages start depending on it.

I don't live in NodeJS world but even I heard about package Left-Pad, that all it does is padding string from the left side. The author decided to pull it out from the repo rendering tons of other packages nonoperational[1].

I've called Amazon around AWS issues and I have to disagree with you. They even seem to step outside of support boundaries when troubleshooting things (which they shouldn't do). I pay for the lowest level of service I think - $100/month. Light user.

We also only are getting one side of story.

Regarding the deleted Ruby gems:

I think it's unprofessional for developers to try and bring down production services just because they disagree with a company move. It's also a bit immature. The thing to do in this case is to quit. Down your tools and quit, but don't destroy the hard work of your teammates and betray the trust of all your investors and customers.
Bootstrapping a SaaS to and$250K/Month on a Competitive Market
Some of Lennart's inventions that he presents at conferences seem to lose momentum soon after. A while ago he talked about casync and mkosi. Both of these seemed more interesting to me than this but progress seem slow or stalled. We will see what becomes of this, but I don't think it is a slam dunk and what everyone has always needed but never realized. I think by ruling out remote /server use cases he will limit the interest in it.
Paper is an interchangeable commodity with many suppliers. Specific software products often are not.

I think the following would be a great start:

- Stop destroying forests (such as Amazon) which are a huge carbon sink for cows which are a carbon source.

- Build more buildings out of wood (wood buildings are carbon sinks) instead of concrete (carbon source)

- All building lumber should be self-sustaining (i.e. replant trees you used to build)

- Stop over fishing and allow oceans to grow unchecked (all living things sequester carbon while they are alive... the ocean is potentially the biggest carbon sink of all and could have several magnitudes more fish and plankton life sequestering billions of tons of carbon)

- Supplement all of the above with man-made carbon sequestration tech
A large Python package might have fewer than 10 dependencies, while a typical JS package easily has hundreds if not thousands of dependencies. Its much easier to manage your dependencies when you can count them on your fingers.
This is common 'tech guy' thinking where an action is immoral and impossible unless it can be generalized to apply to every situation for all time.

It's bullshit though. That isn't how life works, it's not a humane standard to hold people to, and no one does it.

You make judgements. The squeaky wheel gets noticed. And just because you notice one squeaky wheel doesn't mean you are required to inspect every wheel for potential squeaks every time you are aware there may be wheels somewhere in the future.

You need to walk/exercise moderately at least 30 minutes a day. Though, granted, studies show that exercise doesn't fully offset the negative impact from sitting for hours at a time.

When I had a corporate job, I got up every hour on the hour to go the bathroom. It was a huge building, so that got me more walking in than you might assume from the description.
The responsibility for this lies not with just the programmers, but the address decode logic. The hardware should have seg faulted on non-zero upper bits (which would have required the addition of a few OR gates, hardly a problem).
Sounds like a great combination of devices. How does your HbA1c compare on your current regimen? Do you also self-monitor, and if you do, have you tested your post-exercise levels? I have a number of patients who would benefit greatly from this setup. Thank you for sharing.
I think there is something to it but I think being a driver, especially as Hamilton's teammate, is all-consuming and super stressful. I think now he can do what he wants when he wants without much pressure. He seems to enjoy the spotlight so that's what he does.
I'm not convinced they'll need to raise prices in their core business. Looking at the Boston rates ( http://www.alvia.com/uber-city/uber-boston-2/ ), those seem very much sustainably profitable for drivers @70% share and Uber could surely run the platform for their cut of those figures.

To know whether they could fall back to "just" competing for riders and only operate their core business is something that is not determinable from their released financials. How much engineering is true R&D (self-driving and the like) vs what would be required to run their core ride hailing platform? How much of their marketing spend is in established cities ("Coca Cola" type ad spend) and how much is to launch new cities or incentives to balance the development of the 2-sided market in new cities ("priming the pump" type of spend)?

I think Uber is a constellation of [small] profit-making businesses (most cities that have reached scale) and [large] loss-making businesses (select geographies and R&D efforts).
Yes, and it's also non-trivial to write R code that matches your textbook's answer if your textbook used Stata. You have to do things like look up which specific variant of the sandwich estimator Stata uses for robust standard errors, so you can tell R to match that.

In Stata's defense: It helps that Stata is actually really good for the "running regressions" part. In particular, it gets robust standard errors right without much extra work in complex cases that would require a lot of additional code in Python or R.

R wins easily for data visualization and scripting, though. It's also much better as a skill you can "take with you". If you end up working in industry, you may not be able to expense a Stata license, but you'll almost certainly be able to use R (although maybe not RStudio).
no, customer support is anathema towards the sort of insanely scaled platform monopolizing type of stuff that these firms chase.

you don't get to be the winner in a winner take all ecosystem being dragged down by individual requests. you do your best to reduce them to acceptable orders of magnitude, and those that do hit the mines get blown up.

that's the takeaways from all large scale/VC funded platforms. they just don't care, because it's not incentivized. when you have 1 million customers, 1000 casualties are a statistic. when you have 10, it's a different story.
The math works out to around 100 miles per gallon per passenger.

That assumes maximum passenger load, I assume.

At maximum passenger load, my car gets 170 miles per gallon per passenger.

A giant, gas-guzzling Chevy Suburban gets 198 miles per gallon per passenger.

I don't think "per gallon per passenger" is a useful measure.
That's not what he's saying at all. He's saying that Chef is in the business of providing devops software. They're not a government watchdog. They're not the ethics police. They're not political or social activist organization. I fail to see the problem. Finally, not selling chef to ICE won't change anything.

To me that's an argument for why you'd want to do less in the browser, not more.

> I prefer to have everything done in the web browser rather than having another complex graphic framework running in parallel.

Do you have any technical reason you want that? Because a terminal interface, for example, is going to be much more efficient in terms of resource usage if it's implemented natively rather than in a webview.
Also: muting. You can not only mute trolls that sneak into your feed, but entire words and people. After a few weeks of customization it's almost full proof.

No other package manager is run by a VC backed startup.

Aircraft use a lot of fuel.

Roughly half the takeoff weight of an airliner is fuel.
The fuel burned on a continental-distance (3000+ km / 2000+ mile) flight is roughly equal to the passenger's weight. CO2 emissions by mass exceed the mass of the fuel by a factor of three, as you're adding the mass of the oxygen that's added, far more than the hydrogen that's split off.

https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/co2-emission-fuels-d_1085...

For a 747, roughly, takeoff, climb and descent require a fixed share of fuel, 7840 kg, and take about 250km (30.1 kg/km), cruise, another 10.1 kg/km. Shorter flights are comparatively worse, but what gets you in long-haul flights is simply the total distance: about 12,000 km for each leg of that Shanghai-NYC trip. And that's allocated across about 420 passengers.

https://www.sciencefocus.com/future-technology/how-many-cars...

Back-of-the-envelope estimates: At Shanghai-NYC distances, that's 34,300 kg of fuel vs. about 420 * 100 kg/passenger total allowance (rough numbers), or roughly 3x the fuel mass per passenger, per leg, or 9x the CO2 emissions mass. That works out to about 1.8 tonnes based on my figures and maths, which is lower than your parent, but probably assumes too large a plane and too many passengers for a long-distance flight.

But yes: tonnes of CO2 emissions per passenger for round-trip international travel is about right.
Yep, that’s it, shifting the Overton window to better practices.

Without commenting on systemd-homed, since I haven't watched the talk yet; regular users can't modify /etc. Granted, most applications have user local configuration or a command line option to specify a config file, but not all. That said, I suppose you could always user namespace overlay mount a custom directory over /etc to add custom files to it.
They are claiming it could happen, not that it is happening.

Which is what I'm saying - people claim it happens, but it never has. It's near impossible to corner a market without the government granting the monopoly.
No, the above poster is pointing out the dishonesty in claiming that Chef has the ability to stop family separation and detainment.

Uhhh… why not??

These are things that can be done without parents being wealthy or having a SAHP. More whole hard vegetables (cut small, mind you) instead of puréed, would be a great start as soon as teeth do come in.

After all, you don’t need blended food if you have teeth, as plenty of elderly people can attest to.
This depends entirely on the distribution of the other categories.

Look at this like optimizing a program. If you do a profile and one function takes up 80% of the profile and everything else is a tiny fraction, sure, focus on that hot spot. But if you have many many slow functions and none is a clear hotspot, they all need attention, even the 2.5% one.

In addition to false positives, the false negative rate must also be given. For example: if 100 "suspect cars" pass by, but only 5 are identified as suspect, then 95% of the suspects are still on the loose and the system is again much less effective.
Even if Hypeloop worked, which hasn't been demonstrated, its nameplate capacity is close to zero. It can optimistically replace one highway lane. It cannot possibly displace air travel unless you have dozens of tubes. Each of the Bay Area's three airports averages about 3-4x the passengers that a hypeloop might be capable of moving, and that's averaged over the whole year. Peak day/hour air travel can never be replaced with hypeloop.

Ordinary steel-wheel high-speed rail can do it, though. There are many stations in the world that can move 100k pax/hour.
I built CoderTest [1]. It is an online screening platform to evaluate a software engineer’s technical abilities.

I'm using a combination of Node.js, Golang, React+Redux, Express.js, MongoDB, Redis, Docker, AWS Fargate, Heroku, DigitalOcean, Netlify, AWS SNS, AWS SES, Stripe and Github.

I managed to go from idea to product in 3 weekends. I could have built the same thing with any programming language and hosting provider, but not with the same speed. The result is that I am able to iterate and build much faster by using a tech stack that I am very familiar with.

Wait in what sense are the new Threadrippers no longer NUMA?

Edit: Found the Zen 2 Epyc marketing materials that describe this. Yes, apparently memory access on a single socket is uniform, in that all memory access is indirected over the IO chiplet[1]! This may hurt best-case access latency for NUMA-aware workloads? Just speculating.

It's not like non-local caches go away with uniform DRAM access latencies — unless L1/L2/L3 are also non-local to the core and indirected behind the IO chiplet. Which would be really surprising.

Where does the 3% figure come from? It's not clear to me that we have or are even trying to get accurate sea-based emissions inventory.
Good. Every company which refuses to work with ICE makes their job more difficult. That's not going to make ICE go away, it's just going to increase the likelihood that they make beaurocratic mistakes (e.g. detain US citizens), inappropriately secure their data, or a million other little operational failures.
but they might be harder. Which is the point. Private people can resist abhorrent policies by putting up roadblocks or at least not making it easier
I bet that's the same sort of sophistry that allowed IBM's management to justify doing business with the Nazi regime.

I know what Crist is saying. And it smells like self-serving bullshit to me. He doesn't want to do the right thing as a human being and as an American citizen because it would cut into Chef's revenues and upset the company's shareholders and investors.

As far as I am concerned, this is unforgivable moral cowardice. As soon as I learned that Accenture was taking ICE blood money, I quit without notice and lived off my savings for three months until I could find another job at a company that didn't profit from human rights abuses at the hands of the Federal government.

I'm just a middle-aged college dropout who doesn't even make six figures, and I still managed to do the right thing as an American and a human being. What's this guy's excuse?
I’m genuinely curious - what is the government supposed to do with illegal immigrants before they’re sent back home (after asylum hearing). Are they supposed to be put up in apartments? Barracks? House per family?

I’ve heard that people disagree with the immigrants current treatment, but I expect there’s a spectrum of accommodations which people would consider acceptable.

I haven’t considered the logistics and legalities of housing adults with minors who may or not be their actual parents. Do they need to be separated? I suspect there’s a complexity which I don’t appreciate.
> As the Tom's post notes, server and client chips use the same chiplets, so it could be that most of the higher-binned ones are going to server parts; some are higher-margin (7742 is almost $100/core, vs. 3950X under $50/core)

The 7742 is the "halo" chip, though. Or was, rather, until the Epyc 7H12 was announced.

Other Epycs have much lower $/core. For example the 24-core EPYC 7352 is $1350, making it $56/core. The 16-core EPYC 7282 is actually even cheaper than the 3950X at $650, or $40/core.

No doubt bulk orders are going to get the priority, but the margins may not actually be that different depending on what companies are actually bulk-ordering. The $/core drops pretty quickly even just going down slightly in the stack. The 32c 7452 is $65/core.

And we don't entirely know which aspect of the binning is the limiting factor. If it's just functional cores that's going to be different from if they run at the right frequency/voltage. Epyc is all 225 W or lower. Threadripper 3000 AMD could pretty easily slap a 300W TDP on it and ram voltage through the chips that couldn't cut it at Epyc specs. The 2990WX is, after all, a 250W TDP part. The existing socket is already spec'd for more power capability than the top-end Epyc.
>This is a systemic liquidity shortage.

That seems to be the consensus, but I'm not convinced. $75B is tiny compared to the amount of excess reserves in the banking system and compared to the size of the overall repo market. Yet the Fed is treating this as an urgent matter. My guess is that there is a single (or a small number) of banks that are having a liquidity problem and the Fed is trying to stop it from becoming a broader issue.
Well, it will, but the way it does so is to wait a long time and then deliver the solution all at once as a giant slap to humanity's face.
