IPFS person here. I can relate some frustrations / concerns that people sometimes have with IPFS - and happy to also chat about your specific use case and whether IPFS is a good fit!

1. network performance / reliability / scalability
The IPFS network grew 30x in 2019, and because of that we've had some performance challenges - especially around resolving niche content via the DHT / handling NATs. We're working on fixes and improvements here, but for applications that require extremely fast response times there are some work-arounds (like directly connecting to known relay nodes / swarm connecting your peers) to get around these issues.

2. access controls / reader-writer privacy
Right now access controls live a layer above IPFS - and IPFS doesn't support any out of the box encryption / privacy preservation (coming from it's origins helping replicate public datasets like wikipedia and scientific data). There are some groups like Peergos, Textile, and OpenBazaar which have invested in building these controls and privacy preserving approaches (like a tor transport for IPFS) - but we'd still recommend folks to be very careful when using IPFS (especially the public DHT) for highly sensitive tasks.

3. extremely large data
One of our foci with our "package manager" goal for this year is to make it fast to add TBs of data to IPFS. Right now, depending on folder structure that can take a long time (hours) =/

4. "out of the box" website support
While there are lots of simple tutorials for putting a static site on IPFS, many website-building frameworks don't write relative links in a way that meshes with "anyone can provide this content" (aka relative urls get wonky). Hugo is a notable exception, and we're working on creating tooling to support other frameworks like vuepress too.
IPNS being too slow to resolve is also a complaint for sites that want to regularly update to a newer hash. We have dual track improvements on this - both a new version of IPNS over pubsub that is less reliant on slow DHT lookups, and making DHT lookups faster in general for all requests - but the other workaround is to update dns directly using dnslink - which seems to work for most folks.

But are those real sexes? They do apparently have some sort of impact on reproduction, but the only limitation seems to be that they can't mate with someone who has the exact same structure of the these alleles.

Which makes me wonder if this might have developed not so much as a way to help reproduction, but as a guard against inbreeding.

Mine is a simple off by one byte write causing a failure in a separate thread in proprietary barely related code on deinitialization of the library.
It took years to find. Not even ASAN, valgrind and debug allocators helped.
What did was a full audit including assembly.

They had their own memory allocator and internal threads, the off by one corrupted an atomic flag... Since this is data dependent on a relatively cold path the issue did not appear that often. And less predictably because it was ARM.

Pffft and lose all my tabs!

Seriously, at this point I have multiple browsers open, multiple tabs, multiple programs split over multiple desktops with my workflows.

But more seriously an encrypted drive that has a lot of data on it that I've forgotten the password for, and can't remember the system I used to encrypt it / set it up, and figuring out how to change it is always pushed to future LandRs problem. A restart and I'm screwed!

I'd basically just give up and go live in the woods.
It's mostly about convenience and reduced friction. I can't count how many times I've been working interactively on a remote server, which can require non-trivial invocation incantations (e.g. different ssh config file) or multiple hops, and wanted to be able to quickly download some data or upload a binary. Of course you can usually copy it to a file and downloaded it on the side, but the friction can be stressful.

For example, at my current job a shell session often requires logging into a k8s node through a bastion host, which in turns requires ScaleFT (which causes automation and configuration headaches), and from there maybe entering a container.

To use scp or sftp you need to follow that whole sequence again, which if you've got 5 terminal windows open and were bouncing around machines debugging a problem, can be a headache. Just getting to the same working directory can seem like a chore. I usually copy a file to /tmp if I'm gonna scp it, but that's not very secure (e.g. a previously unreadable file might become readable under /tmp because it was was 0644 but located under directories lacking group or other execute permissions, or because it was 0600 and owned by a user, like root, lacking ssh/scp/sftp remote access) and I hate myself for this habit.

zssh is problematic because you need to know ahead of time that you'll want to transfer some files, but in many contexts you would rarely know this ahead of time.

The server-side utility, like lrzsz, might not be installed, but you can install it without having to end your session. The link in the tool chain that necessarily requires widespread, upstream adoption to achieve the convenience dividend is the local terminal software.

Myself and, I suspect, a great number of developers would find much more value in easy file transfers across existing sessions then in being able to display graphics or even more featureful command edit capabilities. I think these newer semantic terminal extensions are an awesome idea (a friend and I almost tried our hand at it 12 years ago, actually), but I know I would immediately and regularly benefit from in-band file transfer support whereas other improvements are more aspirational. If there's any chance this specification stands a chance at widespread adoption by mainstream terminal applications, then I pray that it directly address the file (or binary blob) transfer pain point, and the easiest way to do that might be to build on ZMODEM as lrzsz is already widely available in Linux and BSD package repositories.

There’s two plots in a mystery novel: what actually happened, and how the detective figures it out. My understanding is that the short story he describes is the former, and defines the puzzle part of the mystery: what clues are available, where are they, and what do they really mean?

The actual novel, though, is the story of the investigation. It can be written in any way the author likes, so long as the detective only uncovers clues that the prewriting indicates should exist.

One clear example of this distinction is the old Columbo TV series, where the murder happens onscreen at the beginning of each show. The bulk of the time is spent on the mental sparring match between the culprit and the detective.

Yeah something along those lines, apart from testing new stuff (god knows how long some toxins take to manifest or how strong they are, why risk life/health for few bites). We knew around 10+ of types that grow around us and all their variations, didn't touch anything else.

It is a wonderful activity, hike in dense forests for hours, coupled with treasure hunt that you can eat afterwards (or dry for later). Great for kids too.

The thing is, when I moved to Switzerland, the amount and types of mushrooms changed dramatically, for the worse in this case. Alps around here seem to be pretty desolate place, and of those mushrooms I can find most are not known to me, so big no-no. Funny how things can change dramatically when you move only 1500km.

The worst people are those that collect all mushrooms they see and then they study them at home. We used to make fun of big city dwellers for this. But this approach is dangerous - not only is there unnecessary destruction to beautiful fungus that will be just thrown away, but also eating something that was touching / has bits of death cap on it cap ain't the brightest idea. Plus without expertise, many edible mushroom might look very similar to dangerous ones.

One of the reasons I never dared to pick up magic mushrooms in the wilderness - they are too similar to some poisonous ones back home. Not worth the risk, not unless I would know all variations of them by heart.

Build rules for bazel are straightforward when you’re on the happy path & trying to do something that bazel already understands. It’s when you’re not on the happy path that things get awkward.

E.g. How easy is it to integrate a new C++ compiler into bazel? (and I don’t just mean what you get by changing CC to point somewhere else. I want the full integration with the bazel build system in order to get those hermetic builds that are the whole point of using bazel in the first place).

How easy is it to build things which are not in the set of blessed languages? What if I have a Haskell component? Can I easily integrate that into my bazel build? Last time I tried the answer was definitely not.

If you can use the pre-defined BUILD rules then bazel is pretty great. If you can’t and have to start wading into the weeds of bazel’s hinterland then it rapidly stops being so. If you’re inside Google, then you’re probably fine because a blaze/bazel engineer is ultimately only an email away. For the rest of us outside the Googleplex, extending bazel is an extended exercise in frustration in my experience.

I am personally of the opinion that anything but a handcrafted API is dumb.

The API is where you help your users while preparing for future. It's not something to be left to mere coincidence.

HTTPS + JSON is relatively convenient for taking care of transporting the data over the network in a platform-neutral manner. But you still need to do all the design work.

Just like a great programming library. It's just harder because it's distributed.
Making a fast char searcher in C
I wouldn't say Elixir has more concepts, it is rather different concepts.

You also don't have to worry about performance and concurrency. I would actually argue that you have to worry less about performance and concurrency because you can go further without having to resort to cache layers, tuning, etc.

But ultimately, I don't disagree with you. If you are building CRUD apps, then any technology is likely fine. Perhaps there is a chance Phoenix will start to take a bigger pie of the "CRUD apps space" with LiveView (https://github.com/phoenixframework/phoenix_live_view). If you could produce CRUD apps at the pace you do today, but making them interactive and realtime is orders of magnitude simpler, would that interest you?

I don't believe there is a plan for replacement yet. The justification for snapping Chromium seems valid to me. I don't know if the same conditions exist for other commonly used software.

JVM startup for `java -version` is around 150ms on my machine:

$ time java -version
openjdk version "11.0.1" 2018-10-16

This is how long it takes for a program like git to do actual work. Once you start running an actual program like Maven, it blows up to 500ms for `mvn -version`:

$ time mvn -version > /dev/null

real 0m0.570s

Bazel takes 150ms to do nothing:

$ time bazel --version > /dev/null

sys 0m0.063s

As a baseline, make takes under 30ms to do nothing:

$ time make -version > /dev/null

Article was hard to follow.

This is more comprehensible: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tired_light

in particular, is there any advance on this from Wikipedia?

> a number of falsifying observations have shown that "tired light" hypotheses are not viable explanations for cosmological redshifts.

I don't think that this is sufficiently rigorously addressed by this handwaving from the article:

> I can imagine a scenario in which a star is invisible because it is vibrating in a mode which is out of sync with our own.
No - because it doesn't give any context about what the consequences of that might be.

The next paragraph could say something like "this is perfectly normal, though, and is very unlikely to lead to an earthquake" or "this means an earthquake is nearly inevitable in the next month" and I'd be no more surprised by one that the other.
Oh, don't let me started on differences between Java and C#. You most probably won't write correct code in C# after day long introduction. Just to stop typing String with capital letter is a more than day long training.

With Erlang you have to master OTP, which is part of language and, frankly, the only reason to choose it. The supervisor tree alone worth a week to see how it will work with different failure cases.

To quote "Real Programmers Don't Use PASCAL":

My first task in the Real World was to read and understand a 2O0,OO0-line FORTRAN program, then speed it up by a factor of two.

It is humor, but every joke contains some truth. Optimizing Kaldi's decoder is a critical task if you recognize several thousand voice queries per minute.

Again, to take analogy from outside world. Interpids mostly cruising in under-Mach speeds. It is their common problem. But they are designed to intercept other aircratfs who can fly at MachN speeds and to avoid missiles which are fly at MachN speeds. The difference between under- and over-Mach speeds is... critical? Wings of under-Mach speed airplanes would flatter at Mach1+ and destroy plane itself (see Mig15 wings). Wings of interpid will work on under-Mach speeds just okay.

Common problems are easy to solve if you are ready to uncommon and critical ones. Which are often lie outside of programming language realm, can be solved easily with almost any language and Haskell provides better way to solve them (EDSLs, for example).
The things you describe are all things that volunteer moderators affect.

Do you think that moderators just chat on meta? That users do not know about how moderators work doesnt mean that they do not work.

Remove the moderators, or downgrade them to some automated process and the user experience will change. Moderators do not only talk on meta with each other.
Here is a company that wants to get some work done by the masses. The points system is to incentivize users, however there are administrative tasks that need to be done and mediation on conflict prone topics which can’t attract points for obvious reasons and they choose a vetted moderator model. so they anoint some trusted people as moderators
Over time the moderators forget that are spending their free time working for a company in exchange for some virtual badge or title and start thinking they are responsible for a community and feel ownership

Then they take a strong stance with company and are shocked to loose the virtual badges and titles

Here is the thing when you are a part of a community and take a strong stance they may disagree sideline you or kick you out no surprise here and that goes 100x when it’s a company

If you are working for a company in exchange for virtual badges, you are working for a company in exchange for virtual badges you are not the Shepard owner of the community

And lastly on my rant when I hear “we the stack over flow moderators” i picture a wide group of people some helpful some selfless some looking to be part of a community some thinking they own the community ...

> Non-programmers didn't program in COBOL.

This doesn't contradict the parent comment. They claimed that COBOL was intended to be used by non-programmers, not that it necessarily succeeded.

(It's also possible that it succeeded by its original intention but appeared to fail as the definition of "programmer" changed i.e. if it originally meant someone who understood assembler but it later came to mean someone who spent their time writing programs. I could imagine this being the case, as someone who writes javascript today (or even VBA for Excel!) isn't really comparable to someone who wrote code in the 1950s, but both might be called "programmers".)

Having said all that, for what little it's worth, in a software history course I was taught that COBOL was intended to be written by programmers (in the full-time professional sense) but be readable by managers. I imagine that it did not even succeed at that.

Not really, because the article goes on with this quote:

>“We don’t know what it means.”

Then...

>Whether the destabilization will result in a major quake soon cannot be predicted. In September, the U.S. Geological Survey said the most likely scenario is that the Ridgecrest quakes probably won’t trigger a larger earthquake.

And of course...

>Also, a creeping fault triggered by a nearby quake doesn’t necessarily mean a big quake is coming. The southernmost tip of the San Andreas fault has traditionally crept in response to distant quakes, including the magnitude 8.2 quake off the coast of southern Mexico in 2017, nearly 2,000 miles away. “But that doesn’t mean the San Andreas went off,” said USGS research geologist Kate Scharer, who was not part of the study.

They do their best to not link to the actual study for which the alarmist headline seems to be derived. It is probably this:

https://science.sciencemag.org/content/366/6463/346

What I'm really wondering is whether the '8.0' figure is present in this paper or not. Because otherwise, where did they pull that number?

It's not a question of sexology, it's a question of ethics. I doubt that any of his critics are professors of sexology as well, people are arguing on moral ground here.

Many of issues people are attacking him on, are not issues in my country. I don't see many fellow Europeans bothering what he said, it's American moral issue totally.
