> it's trivial for a host to create a new cname for a tracker, so automating this makes a lot of sense from their perspective in order to avoid blocklists.

This is the part I'm skeptical of. If your site is HTTPS, and a user forbids mixed content, all your ads have to be served over HTTPS. That means whenever you create a new CNAME, the ad server (not run by you) has to generate a new certificate, or else you have to give them a cert for *.yourdomain.com. Both are pretty big asks. Even if the ad server can automatically generate new certs, they're going to show up in a transparency log and can be automatically added to blocklists based on that.

So I'm not sure it's going to make much of a difference which blocking method people use. All the Easylist (or whoever) folks have to do is add new subdomains to their blocklist - the exact same thing an ad blocking DNS provider is doing.

Edit: the process for obtaining a certificate from Adobe for a new tracking CNAME looks absolutely excruciating, which is good evidence for my point. https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/core-services/interfa...
Fair, but that's not rr's target market. AFAIK Simics is not competitive with rr or Pernosco in recording overhead or scalability when you're debugging a Linux user-space application that executes, say, a trillion instructions.
My dentist pushes a periodic "comprehensive/full panel" xray. More than the usual, and claimed the justification was in case I have jaw cancer or something serious (non tooth/gum) related problem.

I asked what about all the rest of the bones in my body?

I skipped it.
A big moment for me was seeing google maps for the first time around 2008. I had just finished school and knew that I had to write programs using this technology.
You can also build a cluster on your computer if it's beefy enough by running multiple VMs. I bought a hp z820 workstation, 16 cores, 128gb for $1000 a few years ago and that's my k8s experiment land.
Roll the story where the person has an abscess and dies from it weeks later
This is why Google should be broken up. If you let giant megacorps keep vertically integrating into insanity, of course this sort of thing will happen. Google is like thousands of companies in one. Youtube, Android, Search, Ads, Cloud, Drive, Gmail, etc should all be separate businesses.
I think many people don't hear this enough. Eye exams can catch things and since a lot of the people I know get a good 4~6 years out of their glasses it makes since to get an exam when replacing them. Sure, exams might cost time/money but most people just don't hear the story of going to get a new pair of glasses and being saved from xyz eye condition story enough. I live outside the USA now and to get contacts you need a recent eye exam to purchase them. I think this works out good because the country I live in has a high number of contact users and I feel it ensures better health for the great amount of those who need vision correction.
> Clearly, your desire for privacy is far larger than everyone else.

Is it? How do you know? Most people don't have even a partial understanding of the risks associated with personal information collection. Most people don't even read terms of service and privacy policies. How many users even know what a cookie is?

The fact is people trust the service providers with the data. They assume that their data will be used responsibly for their benefit. Recent history shows that this assumption is completely unfounded.

> Why should they have to suffer for your desire. You could use privacy oriented services instead.

The fact is the vast majority of services are not and never will be privacy-oriented. Paid service or not, they'd make more money if they sold people's private information. Not doing that is a wasted opportunity to them, it's as if they were actively choosing to make less money. So instead of excluding people who don't agree with surveillance capitalism, it should be impossible to collect any information to begin with.

Besides, we should not be ostracized and be forced to live off-grid as if we were in some cyberpunk story just because we value our privacy.
any word on what a16z has this investment marked at?
I've used coastal.com for years. Never needed a prescription. Found it by googling something like "buy glasses online". I'm reading all the comments in this thread feeling like so many here have never heard of a Google search before.

And I'm now thinking about what I'm not searching for because I think it's not available to me. Hmmm.
Noice toothpaste. All of the taste and none of the waste
Probably because you're using "objectively" when you mean "for me". Typical pseudo-science. And pointing out (correctly) that you don't need a "Doctorate" to get the same effect from pretty much anyone who isn't a sadist.
The way that they introduced the persistently resident hidden web cam software, and the way that it had basically no authentication on it at all, does tell me that they have a software development culture of negligence.
I've bought frames and lenses from LensCrafters multiple times in my life (though admittedly not in the past 5-7ish years) and I would never have thought they could be described as "cheap".
...And? The person you're responding to is right, none of this is surprising to hear about happening in China. When you throw people into concentration camps pursuing cultural genocide you lose a lot of credibility as far as what people expect from your police.
Out of those things, the one we do want is the ability to debug a collection of interacting distributed processes. Our goal would be a bit different though: splice together recordings from different nodes of a real system, rather than simulating all the nodes from the ground up. So our implementation approach will have to be different.
Ditto. In Beijing there's a multi-story building full of stores selling glasses. I walked around until someone spoke to me in English, they used a gizmo to automatically measure my prescription. I picked out a brand name pair of frames. The salesman told me to come back in an hour.

Voila a cheap (~$40US) spare pair of glasses.

A former optometrist of mine once gave me a 5 minute lecture on how I must buy my glasses from him because he makes no money from doing exams.

Cry me a river... guess ya should have gone into dentistry.
The only honest answer to that question depends entirely on one's interpretation of the strong efficient market hypothesis.
I suppose that's true. In that interpretation, it could also be an indication of the boomer generation occupying the upper reaches of the economy and preventing others from rising.

The second interpretation is just depressing, and I suspect it is the more dominant effect.

It would be helpful to see a further breakdown.

Carbon taxes could help, but end-of-life taxes on the producer would be more effective at actually driving change. The consumer doesn't have the decision making power to choose lower-impact materials in products or packaging they buy, but the producer does. If we tax them on the disposal cost and other negative externalities resulting from the use and EOL of their products those producers will likely choose different materials.
> Where can I find this?

In industries where engineers are unionized.
>I can't think of any other area in healthcare where your care is held hostage unless you pay them for some unrelated diagnostics you don't want.

Ha!! Many woman feel this way about birth control! It's held hostage until you get a pap smear. Yearly pap smear, mind you, evidence and recommendations to the contrary be damned. This is despite the fact that cervical cancer screenings have zero to do with safety of birth control.

Just to be clear, cervical cancer screenings are very good! Especially so when done at evidence based intervals. But birth control can be safely prescribed without it, yet many health care providers require a pap test before they prescribe birth control.
I don't think directly comparing humans and computers are that useful as they are "designed" for different tasks.
Seems unlikely, at least for people willing to seek medical care when they have a surprisingly pain in their jaw.

Large doses of xrays aren't without risk. Apparently the comprehensive xray uses 4-6x the exposure of a normal xray.
You can do that with mpv pretty easily.

There's a difference between getting results from sites that contain content (Wikipedia, Stack Overflow, Yelp) and sites that are pure search engines (Bing).
So very true. My licensed masseuse has training in how not to hurt me, now to positively address the issues they can actually address and doesn't participate in psuedo-science. She's part of a team that gets professional athletes back on field, and they are extremely anti-quack, because of the millions of dollars involved. And never "prescribes" an Xray, unless she's sending someone to a real doctor to get it.
In the United States, an "ophthalmologist" has an M.D.

An "optometrist" has a Doctorate in Optometry, which is several years of post-college education and internship. They can write some prescriptions, too, and diagnose, etc.

An "optician" is a person certified to give eye exams. They do not have a graduate degree.
Is "roomba routing" an industry term? I couldn't find it from a Google search, but I like it.

Eve: Programming Designed for Humans
I don't know. I moved from AWS to a <10 person startup and it has a very similar feel.
I like the software, but I thought that giving my 2 cents on what I’d like to see from a consumer standpoint might be helpful.
Most analytics function isn’t necessary to provide the app’s functionality, and yet it’s very common to have it.
You need strong engineering management to communicate the business advantages of well-made software. The benefits of good software are exceedingly hard to measure and understand as a businessperson, because design is a lot like risk management: you can't measure the cost of the disasters that don't happen. The only substitute is to communicate thoroughly on the business's own terms and to show examples of payoffs whenever they're tangible enough to make the point.
There are other costs. It is hard enough to find people in my industry with domain knowledge, ability to dig into problems, and SQL skills. Finding enough people to use an array language would be difficult as others in my industry have found. I'd personally be super pumped, but I'm an outlier here. Also, there are costs to getting kicked into something like this instead of something like tsdb or influx.

What's egregious is they even got fake accredition.

That said, I think the people who signed up should have suspected a fake university given there were no actual classes. These people were probably merely looking to maintain legal immigration status without actually doing the needful work.
This was a cool idea, but the project was discontinued awhile back.
Some things are worth knowing and some things are easy to measure, rarely do they overlap. Number of commits mentioning bugs may not be either, but given how little hard data there is out there I applaud any effort.

Someday I hope a researcher convinces a few companies to open up their JIRA histories and is able to really study project completion/success/user reports of bugs.
Why not both?

There's no good reason for healthcare that everybody needs to be locked behind a prohibitive money gate.

Singapore, the nation where you can't even walk aroud your own house naked (along with other ridiculous laws) and where breach of laws incurs incredibly draconian punishment?

'AI' is not an adversary. It is simply a tool created by hundreds of humans coming together.

It's like watching 1-v-100 boxing match. Of course the 100 are going to win.

Enjoyable sport has always been about ~similarly matched opponents. When we have DeepMind AI Go vs. MindDeep AI Go, that's when things get interesting.
Private healthcare is almost a scam. It allows providers to charge much higher prices (thus increasing premiums) and makes affordable healthcare even more inaccessable.

A Medicare levy, while not ideal, is a fair system. You don't pay it if you don't pay tax, it is proportionate to your income, and it allows a basic level of care for those who need it. Everybody needs eye checks. Poor people get them for free. People earning an income pay for them.
> But it's intellectually interesting, so people work on it.

No. It's a financially sound way to use time, so people work on it. Anything can be intellectually interesting.

What kind of academic research does not create value? And if so, maybe it deserves to be criticized the same way.

The post I replied to specifically mentions people who live in the country who would then have to move closer to cities. That is the profile of a commuter with a city job, not a farmer. Farmers don’t have to commute into the city every day, and thus are not the people who are being discussed here.

Yes, obviously higher fuel prices would affect those who need to drive further due to longer distances between things (i.e. the countryside), but it will also encourage those who only do so by choice to make different choices, which is what we desperately need.
My insurance covers glasses in whatever country I buy them, so I never buy them in America. Get the same glasses cheaper and zero deductible or nonsense on the insurance. Just submit a receipt. Done. It's not just glasses. America's entire Healthcare system is designed to jack up prices in every conceivable way.
yes, but bipartisan probably means pro-corporate.
Artbreeder – Extend Your Imagination with GANs
Because they aren’t crap for me the vast majority of the time. I often hear about local results, but flipping the "Germany" switch gives me great German results.

There are 2 cases when I need to use !g, both of them are when there aren’t many results:

1. Rare error, simply not in their index

2. Ambiguous term and I need to force a part of the query to appear. Because DDG thinks it’s perfectly fine to ignore the user sometimes and show you completely unrelated things even if you tried your best to tell them what you are looking for and it’s in their index.

Sadly recently google started doing that as well. Not as bad as DDG, the first few results are still an answer to my query, but then they decide to spam the results with useless sites that don’t have the term.

edit: formatting
Thanks both. In corporate environments we've seen more software developers who have a Mac with multiple screens (often one of them vertical for code) than with just one. But we were unable to find any reliable stats and it's an ongoing debate in how far multiple screens (vs. just hire resolutions/more pixels on one screen actually improve performance - see https://lifehacker.com/is-the-multiple-monitor-productivity-....

In any case, CoScreen also works great with just one screen and you can share/unshare with a single tap of a button.
I submit that you're reading a little too deep into this statement and their actions. Hanlon's razor and all that.
Self driving is much simpler than playing Go. The hard part is getting the sensors working properly, in all conditions, even when the car is twenty years old and dented.

There are two distinct paths for what the browser/web should become.. more appish like or more like a collection interactive documents. In the end they tried to mix both, but the appish view is eating whats left of the open world of data the web was designed to be.

This is the path Google decided it should go.. They have Android if the strong 'app list' contender wins over web and on the other end they can index the web with AI and Chrome whats left to be indexable (making it hard for contenders) and also bloating the browser (with a huge set of API's) making it hard for other players to try other visions for the web that require and can be done with a simple engine.

I get it that it had to compete somehow with the app store. But for me, the better option would be to split into two products, each one following one path, but with browsers not following the path that would eventually kill them.

I just see a 'dead end' with the web mostly being a framework to be embedded for rich apps(its also a great tech for this end).

Thats why im trying something new here.. a different sort of a "browser", but i dont think it can be called that way in the end.

I've started a couple of years ago, and im almost in the finish line now..

I hope that i can deliver a platform where information can flow free without leading to centralization and digital monopolies that can choke all the rest, but i cannot know if it will really deliver that, because its not just about the tech..
I don't even really like Baseball that much but I love everything about this. I love terminal apps for things you'd never think of, especially when they're fully-featured and beautiful such as this. This has no business existing - yet here we are...and it's amazing.
You both speak of the day AlphaGo won 4/5 matches, yet the matches were played over a series of days. Which of those days was the switch flipped, then? For me there was a significance in day three, but it was mitigated somewhat by the (to me) surprise of day/match four.
Yes, they are. Both have ads as their primary revenue stream. It does not matter if they are unequal in size, they still compete in the same space.

This is pretty cool! As they mention in the paper this is similar to biased locking in java where “synchronized” blocks only ever get promoted to a full mutex when a second thread tries to lock it. It’s the same idea here except with a counter.

This made me think of two other approaches I wonder if anyone tried. The first is using something like per-cpu counters. The number of threads is usually large, but maybe the number of cpus is bounded enough to contain the memory pressure? Linux implements restartable sequences [https://blog.linuxplumbersconf.org/2016/ocw/system/presentat...] for this but I don’t know if that’s any faster than BRC described here. The other thought was - in a similar light to the static analysis the paper mentions - is there any benefit to somehow marking the objects that are “about to escape” to switch the owner thread id? One of the common patterns is swift is bouncing a sequence of tasks off different dispatch queues to get on/off the UI thread, but its really a sequence of operations on the same object.

Great stuff in either case - I’m a fan of no-effort memory management with minimal performance implications and this is one step closer.
