Funny, because the first thing I thought was how frustrating it was to read. The %s are not sorted by size in the pie chart, and they're not labelled other than by colour, so you can't read the % for each country.

The attempts per hour seems to cover more than 24 hours, but the dates aren't labelled. An aggregate chart bucketed by hour of day would be more interesting, since the actual rate is quite low and has a lot of variance - at this zoom level, it's basically noise.

I agree it looks pretty, though I'd take a table with some bar chart columns.

Friend of mine introduced me to his friend's step-dad who was a unix guru and I started attending the everett linux user's group for a few years. We had some fun over the years and made some fun projects happen. The most interesting of which was a computer with 3 motherboards and one power supply, and 2 of the nodes would netboot from the first.
(A) Yes, in many countries. (B) that card loan is only at effective 1.6% for 60 days; if it’s not paid at that point it turns into potentially 20%. (c) Most card payments are debit anyway afaik; no loan longer than a day or so involved.

I'm not taking either side, only saying its a possibility. Given how egregious figures and "facts" from the CCP have been previously I trust them less than most. They made their reputation so they have to live with it.
yes, and it's a pain because the protocols and ports required are usually undocumented. so it's a lot of trial and error (like getting an appleTV talking to a tradfri gateway across the vlan boundary).

Ask HN: RavenDB users, what are your thoughts?
Hi,
We are considering using RavenDB for our SaaS analytics platform. Database size is at TB scale. If you had any experience, can you share please?
No it isn't surprising, but that's also not the point of the comment. If what you're taking away is "anyone can be saved" then you're __REALLY__ missing the point.

Coronavirus Death Toll Rises to 805, Passing SARS
Straight from The UNIX-HATERS Handbook. https://web.mit.edu/~simsong/www/ugh.pdf
For a long time (probably since the first time I forgot to quote something and got burned, so around 40 years), I've thought that there should be some mechanism for the shell to pass in information about how each argument came about.

For each argument, it would tell the program if it was supplied directly, or came from wildcard expansion. For those from wildcard expansion, it would tell the program what the wildcard was.

Most programs would not care, but some programs could use this to catch common quoting errors.
I'm always so skeptical that historians and archaeologists and such have any idea what they're talking about or if it's all just a self-reinforcing web of made up stuff founded through the human talent to find patterns where they aren't actually present.

If I wanted to challenge the claims made on that wiki page with a lot of "how did you come to that conclusion?" and drill all the way down, is it possible? Is it all founded on solid ground in referenced materials? Does it ever get challenged deeply by those whose academic careers don't depend on buying in to it all?

Maybe I'm being way too paranoid.

> Debt is going to finally come to the tech industry

Bear in mind that the tech industry exists in all countries with a population greater than 10. Also consider that this:

> When people in tech want to sound smart, one name you can drop is Carlota Perez.

... is probably nonsense or at best pointing out another point of view.

Not all companies work the way you think they do. Not all companies want to be yoked with the burden of continuous economic growth, always beholden to the irksome shareholder. My little company is about 20 years old now. We have never been in debt apart from a mortgage that we could pay off tomorrow (probably, cough ... ish) We will never set the world on light and you will never hear of us. We have 20 odd employees now and in five years time probably 20-40.

A few years back the UK decided to cede the union with Europe (c'est la vie.) The pound slid south about 30% rather quickly and IT stuff became 30% more expensive nearly overnight. We import nearly everything IT here in the UK. I can't say that my company noticed any downturn in trade, actually we have just hit £1M t/o two months early this year.

I hate this sort of article. Maybe in the US all companies are multi billion t/o setups. Here in the UK we are all simply "shop keepers" (Emperor Napolean said so) and fucking proud of it.
Why do you say it suppresses the immune system? And how could it do that?
The more I think about this, the more distressing this gets. I'd love to hear a little more about this.

Does this mean lambda phage form is some sort of biology's equivalent (or as close as it gets) of a universal constant, or rather — was the genes that encode the 'container' (apologies for my lack of correct terminology here) the same, and the viral payload different, or is it also the case that the 'container code' is also unique between these viruses?
Note that they're talking watts not joules. That implies continuous output, or heavy duty-cycle output.

At 480V, that's 250 Amps. That's a very heavy-duty current, and necessitates very heavy conductors to reduce the resistance as much as possible.

Wouldn't it be better to use a higher voltage and allow for the use of a lower current, and not so massive conductors?

Nix has pretty awful UX for sure. It's kind of a trial by fire to learn it.

But once you do, you can build abstractions to improve that UX. But it would be nice if vanilla Nix was easier.

Next level web scraping that takes any web app and fully groks its structure, devolving it to a JSON-like document that encapsulates all form elements, design elements and extrapolates some basic validation rules and the underlying data structure. Load that into a universal editor, work on the metacode. Since we are dreaming, compile that metacode back to any number of frontend/backend combo templates. The result would always be incomplete, but it would give you an amazing base for knocking out projects.

Web design seems to be unifying around progressive web design principles and too many devs spend way too much time recreating the same variations of CRUD apps.

If any new web feature could be distilled to a metacode base and then restructured from there we could maybe find a way to escape this nightmarish hydra of web technologies.

The title seems a bit off since shell expansions and arguments has nothing to do with the find command.

I do not think it’s that simple. I understand the arguments for buying vs build. However, if you’re a technical heavy organization, relying on buying things also has its costs. You’re constrained on your product offerings because of the thing you bought. The decision is not that simple and requires a lot of work and foresight.

As such, my guiding principle has been to consider the layer at which the thing you’re trying to build/buy fits. For most companies it doesn’t make much sense to build data centers and any cloud vendor will do just fine. Infrastructure is therefore somewhat easier... almost always buy. But if your product requires some kind of integration that is critical for customers, I would think hard about it before buying.

The costs of integrating a bought tool are also overlooked in most of these conversations. External tools are marketed well but don’t always deliver on their promises of being easy to use or setup.

Fundamentally I genuinely believe that if your product is tech heavy you absolutely need a CTO or a founding engineer who has a solid experience in building things. There is no replacement or magic pill to replace that just yet. And still, many fall into this trap.
Just give them a call, they credit you immediately. I had the same thing happen at Sydney International Airport a few months ago - I placed one order but it went through five times. It didn't show up on the app and didn't show up on their registers, but I was definitely billed for it.

A two-minute phone call and they refunded it all.
They are "off" most of the time accumulating energy, and then they send a very high power pulse, so the average power is not so high.

They are talking kilowatts, not joules, so the average power is very high. To get that sort of average power, any pulses must either be quite long or extremely powerful.
These are in no order.

- Start small. Build many small things fast.

- Pick a framework that you like - my two recommended are either Laravel (php) or Django (Python). If you wanted to build something in C++ then I would recommend Qt Framework

- Depending how you learn, you can easily find documentation, YouTube videos, courses etc on nearly every single language.

- Go to meet ups - depending where you live you might have a meet up for web development, or a meet up for a particular language you are trying to master. Talking to people could help solve issues that you are experiencing

- Persistence - it took me years to get where I am now. Even then I am not quiet there yet and still have a lot more to learn myself. I have to persistently teach myself new things to get ahead of the job market
I have no idea what's their case in this regard. Would love some input from someone who knows.
We're not just talking about Windows boxes. We're talking about entire Active Directory networks.

In this sense, it's more like the ipv4 -> ipv6 migration.
As it is written now, yes you would need 2 CPU licenses. I suspect over time this will be refined to something more core count based. I think most people in the VMWare universe have been expecting a change like this.
yes, but some of the posters here are being purposefully disingenuous.

When getting a mortgage, one of the things the companies will look at is your income to debt ratio. For a company it's no different. Yes, there have been companies that have gone under for too much debt. There have also been plenty of companies that have done well even with debt.

When you hear people say "OPM", aka "Other People's Money", what they typically mean is taking on debt and paying it down over time.

And for the poster who stated you don't have to service equity... that's completely bullcrap. We've all heard stories of VC's shuttering a profitable company because they weren't profitable ENOUGH. There's a cost to everything, that equity isn't free.
I generally don't "deal" with them anyway, these are failed attempts. I put the "block" in there in case readers were wondering how to block the IPs if they want to.
This is a non-issue. When we have enough of them for them to be readily available in large quantities we will find uses for them. Being slow to degrade when exposed to the elements makes them (or strips/panels cut out of them) suitable for all sorts of construction uses.

I completely agree. It is pennies to this company this is no hardship for them. My personal name as a domain is being squatted on the .com domain for several thousand dollars. It is worthless and I can not imaging a time it will be worth something. But I don't complain and think I should get it for free. If I want my name domain I have to pay several thousand dollars. Had I bought it 20 years back it would have been pennies also. Such is life.
Thank you for your comment. Made me recall an important bit of reporting that I somehow omitted from the original story (now updated and rectified). O'Connor told me that several years back he got a $20k offer from Microsoft for the domain, but at the time he thought that was too low and didn't reflect the market value of the domain. He turned it down.
Let me share this thought experiment.

- most companies are really bad at security

- most people do not care about the security of their data, passwords, etc.

Based on these facts, I've been operating for a decade now under the assumption that one day within my lifetime, all of our logged online activity may become public after some hack. All of it that's logged somewhere. Chats, pics, posts, history, notes, cloud drives...

It may be slightly paranoid, but better safe than sorry. I should add that I live "normally", I don't care about my pics or discussions becoming public when it happens to everyone else too. I just remain cognizant that there's high probability here.

As outlandish as this assumption might be, the opposite (that security holds and most of our stuff never gets hacked) seems even more implausible to me. Educated guess, you know, which speaks less of tech/security than it does of human nature (carelessness or laziness, until a real crash happens). Hopefully this is very Western-centric and other cultures are better at long-term wisdom and planning.
> If the answer is "no", then you should identify how other businesses are solving the problem and come up with really convincing reasons why you could do it cheaper.

How does one do that? Do other businesses just tell you how they integrated? I remain highly skeptical of this. Bigger corporations especially are quick to tout their successes but hide their failures (publicly) which makes it hard to know how happy/sad these businesses are with the decisions they made.
As often happens in discussions of political and economic systems, you're comparing an idealized concept of one side to the history of the other side; of course the history side looks worse.

ETA: it occurs to me that there's a parallel here to the fundamental attribution error: my favorite system has flaws because its fundamental principles haven't been fully realized, while other systems have flaws because their fundamental principles are bad. Anyway, it's a pattern to watch out for.
Most commands don’t accept the shell-like wildcard `*` as part of their command syntax; find does. That’s the connection.
Well I know how my tools work, I don't know how this custom file works that is duplicated and delivered with each project.
That's true, as someone who both quit the mormon church, and went was an undergrad for five years and got the full college experience. Right now I actually feel more connected to mormons I grew up with than the college friends, though I have more college friends on Facebook.

In case you're wondering if I really quit the mormon church: note that I'm still calling them mormons when the mormons stopped calling themselves mormons. https://www.sltrib.com/news/2018/08/16/lds-church-wants-ever...

Edit: and if you're wondering if I really graduated college - I have no idea where my diploma is and if I've ever seen it. I owed the school a few hundred bucks and didn't get it when I walked, but perhaps I got it when I paid off my account - I don't remember.
The Sagrada Familia was started in 1882 and should be finished in 2026. That's a much shorter span, but it's entirely within the modern era.
Well, there certainly are banks in the US that don't, and why are apps like Venmo a thing over there if the same thing can be done already? =/

I guess it's because of the bank you chose, since the one my relatives use don't have any of that, and are those apps bank-specific? Do people not having your bank also receive the money instantly?
I open drafts in Gmail with no recipient and keep notes there. Super convenient since I usually have it open anyway on the desktop, it works great on mobile too, and gmail search makes it easy to find stuff.

Wait, doesn't rotting mean it releases the CO2 stored in the wood? I would says that's an issue more than something inert.
I think we all just want something simple to clean up the giant, overwhelming mess of modern life, so we're primed to approve of anything that looks like a silver bullet.
I agree with this, if you are competent at 32-bit those skills are going to translate. It is mostly the same.

Some exceptions that come to mind:

* The old floating point stuff is gone. EDIT: guess I am wrong on that, was thinking of what compilers typically generate for the architecture.

* The C abi now tends to focus on pass-by-register for the first few arguments.

* If you are working in kernel mode, some stuff is going to necessarily look different.
I was looking in offerings like Glitch lately.

Codesandbox had better UX than Glitch, at least for my taste.
And conversely, the problematic consequence and cause of all that: Resume Driven Development.
My instant reaction to the example was “that won’t work; you’re shell will say something like ‘no matches’”.

Using an unescaped star in a find command never works for me, which is a lot better than it sometimes working and sometimes breaking!

Reading the article and the comments, it seems like bash doesn’t do this? I suppose it’s one nice thing about oh-my-zsh, whose default confit I use almost unchanged.
How does it compare to Codesandbox?

"Philosophy is a way to address these questions more systematically -- it takes our fuzzy concepts and intuitions and makes them rigorous... In metaphysics, for example, when we talk about ontology, we try to formalize our natural intuitions for objects"

This is only true of certain types of philosophy -- analytic philosophy and its brethren in the 20th and 21st Centuries, and some systematic philosophers of earlier times.

Nietzsche is one of the most well-known counterexamples. Writing in an intuitive, aphoristic style, he was far from interested in any kind of systematization or formalism.

The playfulness of Derrida and the approaches of some other of the Postmodernists are also the antithesis of what this article claims philosophy is about.

The Pre-Socratics and Socrates himself were not interested in systematization or formalism either. Neither was most Eastern philosophy.

Philosophic interest in formalizing only rears its head in philosophy towards the end of the 19th Century with Frege and the logical-positivists (themselves ancestors to the Analytics) who followed him.

There's plenty of philosophy that just isn't interested in this.

On the other hand, if what the author is getting at is that philosophers tend to examine the questions and subjects that interest them in a deeper way than most other non-scientist do, then I would agree with that.

It's not intolerant to state that you do not believe in somebody else's religion. Nothing above is even "disparaging", even that fairy tale remark. It's not disparaging to state that, without good evidence, you believe fantastic stories from thousands of years ago to be fairy tails.
In the EU, you have a right to a basic bank account including a payment card and online banking.

At the risk or being labelled an old curmudgeon, I must admit that I was 'imprinted' with WordStar (roughly similar to "emacs", but very, very basic) over the course of 7 or 8 years in the 1980s. Consequently, I really only feel comfortable with WordStar or a modern clone.

I use "jstar" which is the 'WordStar persona' of the "joe" text-editor. I even renamed it to "ws".

Certainly, it's a squatted domain the owner has never had any interest in actually using and is now no longer even interested in holding. If what is in the article is true then I don't even think Microsoft should necessarily own the domain let alone put it out for public bid to see if a good guy is willing to pay more than a bad guy could make off of it.

The guy even claims "I don’t really need the money. I’m basically auctioning off a chemical waste dump because I don’t want to pass it on to my kids and burden them with it." so revocation and locking seems perfect, it's exactly what he wants.
