Slightly OT:

I'm surprised that more sophisticated management of supply lines never seems to have caught on much in RTS games. The basic practice still seems to be that logistics are handwaved away and your units just spawn wherever you want (or where your factory is) provided you have enough money in the bank.

I could imagine a game quite fun where you actively have to transport troops and resources to the front and where building, running (using automation) and defending/attacking supply lines is integral part of the game. I guess the result would be something like a cross between Command & Conquer and Factorio or Transport Tycoon.

The handwaving of logistics can also lead to some surreal moments in RTS single-player campaigns when the hero characters somehow manage to bring huge armies with them wherever they go, even if the story establishes that a place is difficult to get to even as a small group.

Kudos for Blizzard and the design of the Zerg here, which turns that kind of awkwardness into an actual part of the story.

merge

- when commits of both branch need to preserve

- when additional zero file “merged commit” is ok

- when chronology order of commits need to maintain

rebase

- when commit of both need to preserve

- when zero file “merged commit” is not desired

- when rebased branch commits need to stay on top of other branch

- when change of commit id is ok
This was certainly not our intention, or what I've heard from users.

> Key takeaway: It is impossible to have a neutral arbiter that is also perceived as neutral.

Actually, it is impossible to have a neutral arbiter. The problem isn't one of perceptions and allegation of bias. Most statements either are not objective (Trump is a bad president) or are objective in theory but cannot be determined (Trump intended to dig up dirt on his political rival). Nature doesn't provide a zero detent, so there is no way to be a neutral arbiter.

The problem with Big Tech determining what is and what is not fake news isn't censorship, it is that they have proven time and again that they are no better at determining what is true than we are. Big Tech doesn't have some rigorous technique, they pass the buck to media companies. Media companies pass stories along like Chinese whispers... nobody bothers doing investigative reporting anymore because it's too expensive given the shifts in the marketplace. So on a per-story basis, only a handful of people actually have direct knowledge, and as humans with biases they relay their interpretation of that knowledge. Everyone down the line parrots the bias unknowingly. The only way we find out the mainstream media is wrong is when another person with direct knowledge took perhaps a video and posts it on YouTube. Unfortunately for that poor sod, he gets the video taken down as fake news.
This may not be the solution you are seeking, but I would do this with an asynchronous job model. Kick off a job where each stage is a dependency on the previous stage. A failure of any stage will kickoff a cleanup job. The account creation service would be responsible for creating the job and monitoring the status. You could run jobs with whatever you see fit. A kafka consumer would be an interesting option. For a quick POC you could even do it in Jenkins via the API.

How often do you look stuff up that's older than say a week?

Personally, I'm kind of glad to soak up information as I go and being able to just forget everything else. As opposed to constantly feeling the need to tag, sort, archive, reference, cross-reference, keep track of information, that future self will to 99.9% never actually need.

Yet, I wonder whether use cases start to materialize, once you start using it...
I looked into it a few years ago when the radio-based stuff was still fairly immature/expensive, and it seemed like it was super low bandwidth. Like, fine for on/off operations, but not really fast enough to do things like have a light track a dimmer.

I'm afraid that phone camera sensors are filtered to R/G/B, so a strong monochromatic orange, for example, may end up under-represented or even absent in the captured image, and will likely be hard to distinguish from an overlap between red and green.

Maybe modern image processing techniques can figure it out, but this seems like a huge problem to me.
Depends on the town. Some have industries that pay the bills fine. Like tourism or fishing.
Some good ideas here. Similarly, one thing that bugs me about all/most frameworks is that you have to spend a significant amount of time “wiring things up,” ... connecting models to views to the admin.

That should happen automatically in my opinion. I’d like to create a model class in a models folder and have it found, loaded, tied to views, templates, the admin already. Customizable still of course.

Would also like an admin page to download common models like wordpress plugins. Say CMS with comments, roles, history/audit etc. All built to standard interfaces. Why do I have to reinvent this and wire it up every single project?

Also flowers and Trump themes are a weird combo. Especially when Flask is relatively unchanged. The design is either great or not depending on your perspective.

I have my old flat in 2000(ish) fully linked. This. Included PIR sensors, door sensors, and lamps, lights. I also had. The heating fitted with an x10 switch. This meant that I could turn the heating on and my kettle on remotely on the way home from work.

X10 was nice that it could communicate through main, but when I started to use Ethernet over power, it stopped working. It also was one-way. There was no confirm or status from the switch devices.

Technically possible, practically unlikely (you iOS phone would be a terrible router, giving the people who made the calculator app a slow, unreliable output node that would identify to the desired source as a lower-quality (mobile) client.

The theoretical model here is using people’s fast, stable (-ish) broadband connections to relay the connection. Even then, it’s only for the initial setup steps; once you get to the actual streaming data, nobody in this model wants to ferry those packets around.

Can you say more about what type of attenuation would be possible?

The noise models in physical systems are fairly simple/characterizable (y = f(x) + e, where e ~ P and P is some stable distribution, or e = a z-transform model), whereas in social sciences, the "noise" component is actually a catch-all/residual for whatever is unknown (e is unknown or unstable). It seems to me that it would difficult to apply any kind of signal processing techniques but I could be wrong.

On other hand Mongol-Song wars were absolutely incredible on power imbalance. Some times with a single tumen (10000) vs entire Song armies at a time.

The entire Song military of 1m+ and god knows how much irregulars first exhausted its supplies by chasing a more mobile enemy across the central plain, and then defeated with "defeat in details" taken to its extreme, after Song understood that they can't match Mongols in open fields, and decided to go on defensive.

As Mongols set on fire more and more cities, Song's giant military started emptying granaries as they retreated south. With each lost commandry, Song was loosing more and more of its grain production, while having to dig deeper, and deeper into its reserve.

During the second invasion wave, Mongols had to set just few more major granaries on fire for Song military's grain consumption to exceed its production. After that their supply shortage started to snowball, and they lost almost all of its military to rout and desertion within a few years.

I absolutely love HA. Using Z-Wave mesh network to control most things, especially lighting and fans. From automating your smart TV, alarm and CCTV, HVAC, garden watering, etc.. It's pretty limitless and there seems to be an integration for everything.

They used an industrial rated screen years ago, because no one in the world made an automotive rated screen large enough at the time. They did accelerated wear tests on it and worked with the manufacturer to make some customizations to try to improve the heat resistance, as well as adding cabin overheat protection into the software. Yes, this was not enough to entirely prevent the yellowing issue on some screens.

Look at, for example, what Sandy Munro says about the electronics quality specifically on the Model 3, and you will appreciate they have come a long way since then.

There is no automotive company I would trust more when it comes to quality of the electronics. This is a group which taped out their own custom silicon for their APv3 hardware, designed by famed chip designer Jim Keller, and will field upgrade it into existing cars. What other manufacturer sells hardware upgrades to their late model year vehicles?

I might be wrong about EC2 pricing, but at least for me, ~$11 per region is not "almost-zero-cost". Unless we're talking about on demand instances.

In the context of discussing the library's marketing/presentation I think the the branding is also fair game. It's also a little odd how at the bottom of the page it gives credits to the image as a non-commercial license. Personally I would recommend avoiding any licensed assets in such a project all together (when possible).

But at the end of the day if you build and release an OSS project you should get to do whatever you want with it, like the use of emojis that was discussed in the postwoman.io project that came up last week.

My opinion is who cares, we should be discussing its technical merits first and foremost on a forum like this.
I was arrested for DUI several years ago. There were many penalties, all justly deserved, and the whole ordeal took hundreds of hours and over $10K to resolve. I am fortunate to be able to afford this, but not everyone can.

I fully understand why many people have zero sympathy for DUI offenders. I certainly expect none. But I'd like to shed some light on the fundamental cause: alcoholism. The average DUI offender has driven drunk over 80 times before their arrest.

When sober, I know as anyone else what a bad idea it is to get behind the wheel. The problem is, it is darned hard to avoid taking that first drink. Then the second. Alcohol is everywhere. And when you are drunk enough, you don't care how bad the criminal penalties might be.

Deterrence is not enough. And out of all the treatment programs, financial cost, etc, the only thing that was really helpful in curbing my alcohol use, strangely enough, was the interlock.

Addicts don't think ahead. But sober addicts can, albeit with difficulty. Sober addicts know that if they have an interlock, and if they take that first drink, they won't be able to drive, and they'll be stuck. So they might not take that first drink. My pattern of drinking was to stay late at work, drink there, then drive home. With the interlock, that meant sleeping in my office, not an attractive proposition. Sometimes I did take that first drink, and did sleep in my office. Or I took a Lyft. But at least I wasn't on the road.

So I think interlocks are good. The technical issues raised here about them are real, though. It bricked my car for weeks, once. Also, the one I had not only had you breathe to start the car, but randomly while driving, and there was a time limit. This could lead to very dangerous situations where I was trying to negotiate difficult traffic and blow in the damned thing simultaneously. Not good design for something intended to improve traffic safety.

This is not the interesting feature of this system by the way. That is microgeofencing, knowing per room where people are. Yes, you know where you are in the house. However, your "smart" home does not.

Yes, it's a shameless plug. However, there aren't many open source hardware products on the market, so I think it contributes to the discussion.

That could be quite fun! Especially since you could try to sabotage or destroy enemy supply lines.
I use it in production at my job, I primarily use it to catch sneaky bugs in designs before implementing them and to produce something tangible to talk over with other engineers once I've settled on a design.

It's worth learning and using IMHO.
Viruses and bacteria tend to be super specialized for their hosts temperature, humidity, and cellular ranges and die soon after being abandoned into the cold uncaring world. Except for when they're in bio-films. Then, recent research suggests, they can live for much longer.

Fungal spores, however, can live forever even in deep space.

Valley fever, caused by Coccidioides immitis is a danger to Archeologists (and ATV enthusiasts) as it lives in the soil and if its spores are breathed in it can cause some symptoms.

So, there's some danger, but not much. And the people doing this work will likely know the details.
Information Is Physics
Another important difference is that:

Dark Matter is not uniformly distributed, for example if forms big blobs that surround the visible parts of the galaxies.

Dark Energy is uniformly distributed, but the (equivalent?) density is very small, so the effect is important in the very empty space between galaxies.

I had the same thought a few years back. I think it depends on are you 'reading' code or 'writing' code. When reading code, I want to read comments rather than ignoring them. When writing code, syntax highlighting is kind of doing spell checks for you. I don't think they are really useful, but you can't go back once you have them.

But that malloc is implemented in C lib doesn’t mean that the question and the answers are wrong. Eventually system specific calls have to occur. The question is very specific, asking what happens in Linux when one makes a malloc call requesting a big allocation:

“does it actually create 1 GiB worth of swap pages? Or does it mprotect the address range and create the pages when you actually touch them like mmap does?”

And how it is implemented can be seen, as an example, here:

https://sources.debian.org/src/glibc/2.28-10/malloc/malloc.c...

Note both mprotect and mmap references.
