The major breakthrough of C4 is that it's both terse and yet still very readable; previously the only other well-known self-compiler of that size was OTCC, which is deliberately obfuscated.
Show HN: Best practices for building Serverless apps
Hi all, I'm one of the authors of Serverless-Stack.com — an open source guide to building full-stack apps with AWS Lambda and React. Since it's launch in 2017, it's become one of the most widely read guides for building Serverless apps.

Today we are adding a new section to the guide that walks you through the best practices of building large Serverless applications. It tries to address some of the most common questions that teams have:

- How should my project be structured when I have dozens of interdependent services?
- How should I manage my environments?
- What are the best practice for storing secrets?
- How do I make sure my production environments are completely secure?
- What does the workflow look like for the developers on my team?
- How do I debug large Serverless applications?

The guide is very comprehensive and we go through it step-by-step:

https://serverless-stack.com/chapters/best-practices-for-building-serverless-apps.html

I hope you find it helpful and let me know if there is something else we should cover.
Since the molecule of 2000 atoms exists in two places, it doubles the mass. Doesn’t this break the law of conservation of mass and energy. Can someone please explain how this is possible.

I like how it's only mentioned in passing that it's a tax haven. Which probably explains why it's not in the UK.
Wikipedia says EXIF was released in 1995 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exif). If you were shooting with a DSLR, say 6 Mega pixel with 8 bits per pixel, the raw output would be 18MB in size (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodak_DCS_400_series). In order to rotate this raw 6Mp image you would need 36MB of RAM (input and output buffers of the same size, non-overlapping). Then, after the rotation you could perform JPEG, so that the rotation is lossless. Finally, you could store the JPEG image to disk.

36MB of RAM just for raw image buffers would have been quite expensive in 1995. Simply tagging some extra data onto the image to say which orientation it should be presented in takes almost no extra memory or processing within the camera, some big desktop PC could easily rotate the uncompressed JPEG to perform a "lossless" rotation after the fact (ie: uncompress JPEG in wrong orientation, rotate, present to user).
You are underestimating the information that was available in the late 90s on the Internet. If anything, thanks to DOS game development and demoscene still being active, you could find stuff much easier than it is nowadays (there is a lot of material over the years that is sadly lost - especially when it comes to making some arcane "official docs" more understandable). In the late 90s as a teenager i wrote a small OS at my free time for my PC (running on real hardware) with its own assembler, compiler, primitive text-based UI (think TUI, not command-line) and documentation system (growing up on Borland tools i always liked how everything was documented and made a simple hypertext system since this is how i perceived real serious software to be - though in hindsight it had atrocious UX since there was no mouse as my PC had no mouse). My two main limitations were my lack of experience and limited understanding of English. But the knowledge available to me was abundant.
The latest JSON Schema draft introduces some nasty patches that fix the previous draft's limitation. It's even more confusing, it's not designed to generate form even if people have tried (some things can't easily map to form) and the latest spec said so.
Yes, they do.

What would you like the point of your country's justice system to be? To be a venue for state controlled vengeance, where the victims (or the friends and family of a victim if somebody died) get to enjoy the fact that at least the criminal got their life ruined as well?

Or would you like it to be to attempt to deal with criminals in a fashion that reduced recidivism as much as is possible, allowing for compensation of victims where reasonable and possible, but providing explicitly no vengeance-based 'compensation'?

Because a justice system is going to look radically different depending on which option you want (especially if you're trying to optimize it so it does what you want it to do well, fairly, and cheaper than alternatives) – and the anti-recidivism style leads to vastly lower levels of crime. It's also vastly cheaper for society.

When you feel outrage at a child molester getting 5 years in a comfy jail cell, getting a state-paid education to boot – that's your sense of vengeance being offended. Be aware that satisfying it is incredibly expensive.

When you feel outrage at a child molester that gets out after 15 years and strikes again soon after – that's presumably you being upset that the justice system is, based on a rather lacking 'anecdotal evidence of 1', not doing its proper job.

Even if punishment isnt the point at all, incarceration and other restrictions of personal freedoms are likely required. How do you prevent recurrence of the crime?

There are some drastic options available. You could, purely out of economic expediency, just execute all criminals. But even if you're morally okay with that drastic measure, in practice that has a lot of externalities. so, _IF_ you free criminals at some point, it makes very little sense NOT to focus on reducing recidivism rates.

One could consider the punishment itself as an anti-crime measure: Use the fact that if you are convicted of a crime, you will be punished, as a deterrence. For some types of crime it works well, but for many, it has barely any effect. Crimes of passion and sexual deviancy just aren't reduced by measurable rates by increasing the punishment if caught and convicted, for example.

Add it all up? Yes, please. Provide counsel to criminals before you consider the punishment (but, as they ARE criminals, if the most effective counsel the state can provide requires significant reductions in personal freedoms, by all means).
Vegetables have a ton more nutrients than meat, and in a better form for the human body. For example, iron in beans is much more easy to regulate by the body (to absorb only the necessary ideal amount, not less, not more) than iron on red meat.

Excess heme iron on red meat is harder for the body to regulate absorptions and is linked to cancer.

In general, there are no nutrients in meat that don't exist in an equivalent or better form in plants, that's where they come from after all.

Including ALA, DHA (flax seeds for example), and many of the nutrients are made by the body itself. We are animals too, our body has all the same essential mechanisms to process plant foods as animals do.

Of course, we can't eat grass like a cow, but fruits, vegetables, root vegetables, nuts and seeds all that we can digest easily.
Playing them like puppets, yes ;)
At this point, simply assume that any data that isn't encrypted with a key you only own can be read by anyone.

There is no privacy without strong encryption.
Cerebral Cortex is the only (legit) neuro journal I know of that charges a submission fee. Are there others?
Obviously this is wrong and tyrannical etc.

I can't help wondering though if this may have unexpected benefits for e.g.: sleep quality, civility in online discussions, exercise. It's hardly intended that way, but could end up being a net benefit for the well-being of citizens, particularly if it were implemented in a highly-developed country like the US.
And this is why I'm doing DIY IOT.

It's just a little too personal to not be in control
That does appear to be the end-game.
Bullies often reflect the environment they're grown into: bad, absent, abusive or too demanding parents etc. They should be helped before resorting to punishment, but any attempt is deemed to fail if their family refuses to cooperate, which is the most likely case since it implies admitting they suck at parenting.

Yeah, that person is just wrong. Interesting that they identify that way though. I have friends in Jersey, which holds the same status as the Isle of Mann, and they're very insistent on not being part of the UK, but that they are British (as well as Jersey native). They like being independent but being strongly connected to the UK.
Oh yes. Those clever psychologists even invented a counselling system that increased the rate of reoffending from 8% to 10%:

Edit: Obviously I would be in favour of counselling that decreased the rate of reoffending.

Tremendous channel though and thoroughly educational.
Of course, who do you think pays the taxman? Who writes the laws or has power, influence, and money to shape them?

It's not an accident, it's by design.
The notorious act of vandalism was as much an act against the monopoly of the East India Company than just the governor's stupid hard line approach. The daft thing is the tea boycott was dwindling. Dwindling until IIRC the tax was reduced and the East India Company got the monopoly they had been lobbying for in its place.

This provoked other British tea merchants to organise a campaign, publicity and letter writing to colonists to try and get the boycott going again.

It was the Company that then chose to send the four(?) ships to Boston.

T'was mostly the East India Company lit that touchpaper. Then, as you say, a series of government responses that turned moderates into radicals, and subjects of the Crown into Americans.
Given that the curfew seems to be directly related to the large-scale protests where thousands are getting wounded and some killed, I wouldn't count on them having e.g. better sleep than before the curfew.
I eat unhealthy when I feel down but it usually makes me feel worse in the long run.

The older I get, the more I appreciate eating healthy. But every once in a while I'll order dominos and enjoy it without guilt.
So is it only usable for testing/verifying Java code?
I'm also interested in this as "hate" is such a strong word for food. Say, brussels sprouts aren't my favourites but I'll empty my plate of them, while celery stalks have such a strong, unpleasant taste that I'll remove them from my plate. It's hard to imagine people having this celery-level of distaste to majority of vegetables, as they are generally very mild-tasting.
Their "answer" misses the problem. A cloud solution running AGPL is not any more free than one that doesn't. The issue is Tivoization 2.0. The AGPL allows you to get the source, but since you don't own the server, you can't really do much with it.

Same with the Javascript, sure, you get the source in a non-obscured fashion, but that doesn't buy you anything, the data is still on the server and how much or how little you are allowed to access it is controlled by the owner of the server, not that bit of Javascript.

To bring Free Software into the cloud age you would need licenses that go beyond the source code and regulate how the data on the server is stored, manipulated and distributed. The European GDPR does that and there are a tiny few licenses like the Open Data Commons Open Database License that do that. But from the FSF there has been pretty much nothing.
Lol. South Park has made fun of America and Lincoln many times. They’re still making videos and broadcasting them on national TV in the US.

But a comparison to Winnie the Pooh is apparently something The Chinese premier can not handle.
I'd just like to point out that there are solar plants that can generate power after sunset too. Solar thermal plants can store their heated working fluid in an insulated container and use that to power their heat engines later on.

Oil Companies Plan to Blow Past World Carbon Budget
Interesting, I know I seen on cruise sites apparently they stopped using the paper version at some ports. I think it's odd they want to know all the countries you visited in the past, like if you took a long trip that'd be a lot to remember and repeat off. I think they just want to know to profile and stereotype things more though based on where you went.

I know I seen there's world cruises for about 6 months, would be a dream for sure to be able to go on! Probably a lot of retired people or business owners.
It might feel like that but fortunately it isn’t true. People and companies who earn above a certain amount get a ‘relationship manager’ at HMRC and also get classified as low/medium/high compliance risk by them.

I think there are rules they consider ‘intended loopholes’ (like the fact that you can designate a different house your main residence every 9 months and effectively benefit from two primary residence allowances for CGT, or the ability to transfer assets between spouses tax free), many of which benefit richer people/larger companies more than poorer/smaller ones, and others they consider ‘unintended consequences’ which they do go after in a number of ways - all the way through to effectively retrospective changes to the law (like the Loan Charge).
The parameter regime of interest is monumentally out of reach to experiments. We can already derive things on paper about that regime, and with better computers we would indeed be able to make more complicated calculations about that regime. But to get something useful we also need to "fit" these calculations to observations. We do not have observations not because of a fundamental constraint, rather because it is engineeringly impossible to reach these energy scales with anything we can imagine. So the roadblock is experimental and a quantum computer would not be particularly helpful with it.
I think if you were to use a swapfile and set swappiness to zero it should behave like this.
And in many cases, parents are fully aware the homework that requires their help did not had to be at all and has zero educational value. Parents know said homework exists only to force them to "be involved" and resent it. As much as you try to pretend you are enthusiastic yadda yadda, the afternoon evening was killed with crappy project that really does not look like having educational value.
Ok, I appreciate the clarification
> Do you think it is ethical for a company to require it's employees to break the law?

Unless Apple happened to be a Chinese company I'm having a trouble at finding the law that Apple is breaking. I'm sure the customers can decide if a shiny iPhone produced by an company subject to Chinese law is worth it and employees can decide if they want to be employed by a Chinese company.

Is that the judgment? If so, when you say "He had a defence. He chose not to use it, despite the judge explicitly encouraging him to", are you referring to this part?

> I should note that although I invited both legal representatives to make legal submissions during the trial about the law on freedom of expression, that was done only to a very limited extent. In the absence of focused submissions on that topic by either the Crown or the defence, all I can say is that, while that right is very important, in all modern democratic countries the law necessarily places some limits on that right.
I never quite understood the pragmatic purpose of Approach 1.

If punishment has no measurable, positive effect - why do it?

Combine with Hanlon’s razor and indeed - victims become bullies when they default to Approach 1 when harm (rather than misunderstanding) is perceived.
This is incredibly interesting. How much time are you working on it?

While i'm not that interested in a full blown OS, some times i find myself really wanting to work on a new GUI stack for Linux (above X) but the time i'd need to put on it to become as i like it (which, incidentally, is very close to what you have here in your OS) makes me think that i'll need to basically do nothing else - and there are too many games i'd like to play :-P.
I'm tired of subsidizing people who are so intent on harming themselves, while at the same time blaming everyone/everything else for their behavior. I get that people need to be the hero of their own narrative, but requiring the rest of us to subsidize and approve is just too much.

Obesity should automatically put a person into a different risk/cost pool for health insurance. The price of procedures should be higher to reflect the higher cost and risk of treating people who are obese.
From a quantummechanic standpoint its wrong to say, that its at two places at once. I really dont like the Headline. Superposition means, that it didnt decide for one of the two possible states, and so these both exist in superposition.

We recently got a van with a "360 camera" (the screen in the center console can display an image that appears to be coming from a camera 10ft/3m above the van). When I first heard it described I figured it was a gimmick I'd never use, but I've been very wrong about that. I'm able to park much more smoothly thanks to cameras (even something at simple as centering the vehicle in spot becomes much faster when you can look in one place, rather than back and forth between mirrors).
cproc is not 7K self-contained either; from the GitHub page: "cproc is a C11 compiler using QBE as a backend".
A good place to start is to read Michael Pollan's Omnivore's Dilemma[1]. I was amazed at how much of our current food originates as corn. Corn is good at fattening cattle in record time, and seems to be having the same effect on humans who eat its derivatives.

I thought the article was going to be about these until I clicked on it.
Unless you’re an American living abroad, in which case it’s tax evasion.
Obesity is caused by food choices, it's an optional state you don't have to be obese that's a fact, yet a lot of people think its a fatality and a bad draw from the genetic lottery, when nothing could be further from the truth.

The only way to cure the obesity epidemic is public education, and inform people. A whole food plant-based diet is the best diet identified by science so far in terms of treating obesity, and even heart disease and diabetes yet the public is still in 2019 going on 2020 largely unaware.

There’s a constitutional problem with that though.

Most of these territories are internally self governing including in respect of tax law, and Westminster has long since ceased legislating for them. Going back to Westminster acting as a colonial power is something which they are strongly opposed to themselves.

There is an undeniable discrepancy on how we receive and perceive information about individual subjects; Where our attention is directed, and from where it's deviated - what I'm surprised about is how this persists despite a medium like the Internet.

Please don't be so presumptuous. First of all, I live in Europe. Second, I literally said that I think (at least) people with lower incomes have better lives in other Western countries. I really do mean freedom in the literal legal sense, and I don't think this is an important metric.
Seems like something for the courts. Most people would still be considered adult at 18 or 21 or whatever, but the few exceptions can have it changed in court.

I'm not saying this is a good idea, just that it's a better idea than changing the actual age number like this article proposes.

They have much too rosy an idea of the future. Nuclear war is actually the only thing that will save them!

Oh, by the way, they won't be forced to have the chips implanted, they'll willingly line up for it! So they can get their Dominos Pizza, and Amazon deliveries, and Google Map directions all with a thought! Or so they'll be told. Besides, the asymmetry in computing power between the rulers and the enslaved will be laughable. The government will have even (more) powerful quantum based machines.
