The point is that tracing GC searches for things to keep and assumes the rest is free.

Which I believe is the important distinction, and quite often it doesn’t know or care “which allocations to free” because it does it in bulk. That allows it to be efficient.
Using 60 GHz for communication at these distances is pretty strange because 60 GHz is strongly attenuated by the atmosphere. Not only that, but atmospheric attenuation peaks at 60 GHz because that's what oxygen absorbs[0]. Some military satellites even use 60 GHz for intersatellite links because it's highly attenuated by the atmosphere, making eavesdropping more difficult

Most important tips to prevent yourself from Coronavirus: COVID19
I agree, but the death rate of COVID-19 may not be high enough to justify a huge increase in risk tolerance.
> His latest book, Bring Your Whole Self to Work, advocates for workplaces where people feel safe to take risks and practice vulnerability with their coworkers.

Bring your whole self to work is one of the worst things to ever happen. It sorta worked when you are in a bubble like Silicon Valley tech companies where the employees are roughly the same age and demographics and went to the same colleges and thus has the same politics. But in more diverse workforces or even as these Silicon Valley companies grew and hired more diverse people, it has lead to a work environment where the political battles are refought tearing apart the work force.

I am in favor of bringing your professional self to work and leave the rest of the stuff at home.
Interesting article about the relative potentials of batteries versus capacitors.
In essence, they are good for regenerative braking where cars go from 60 to zero, and usually waste that as heat with some recharging the battery. Gradual slow down braking wastes less heat and more of the braking power is used for battery recharging.
In affect a capacitor is like a spring. Capacitors also decline in voltage as the charge is consumed since the charge equation is Q = 1/2CV*V where charge Q in coulombs, Charge C in Farads and Voltage V in volts.
That said, there is a niche for greater braking efficiency with supercaps.

By the way, the DJIA lost trillions of dollars. That's like 100 Manhattan Projects ($20 billion adjusted for inflation).

EDIT: Don't know why I'm down-voted, but my point is that an extremely aggressive development project is easily justified if it can reduce the health and economic impact. 10 Manhattan Projects worth of effort to accelerate mass treatments, if it even just halved the economic impact, would easily pay for itself.
If you live in NYC, you might be underwhelmed. I toured a couple years ago, and my main reaction was "This looks like a bigger version of my current apartment!"

I'd really appreciate knowing your specific objections to A/B testing in digital education.

For instance, I have an adaptive quiz system that delivers interventions when students struggle. An intervention might be, for instance, a video for teaching fraction addition. In that case, why not compare our video with a Khan academy video teaching the same topic, and see the results?

It feels unethical to NOT use A/B tests to improve digital education. Why only apply that technology to the improvement of advertising and YouTube recommendations, vs curricular recommendations?

I am really disappointed by this. One of the reasons we moved to GCP from AWS was the ability to create multiple clusters at no extra charge. Now it looks like the pricing matches EKS.
But that's my point, it isn't for alerting about problems, some things have a 'status' that might be interesting, but isn't a problem, or something to fire an alert on necessarily.

You could have unintrusive notifications (inaudible etc.) to 'alert' to such statuses I suppose, if they were kept in view and not 'dismissed' (whatever that means for the medium they came in) - but then really you're just implementing a version of something like this Monitoror in your inbox, phone notification tray, Telegram channel, or whatever.

You're not going to rip out logging, prometheus, or services' that this connects to own UI just because you have alerting, so I don't see why you would this. It's like prometheus & grafana for higher level stuff. (Of course you could use those tools for this sort of monitoring too, but that's not really the point.)

I see a lot of panicky comments, both in real life and in this very thread.

I know COVID19 is different from a regular flu, but is it more serious? "Regular" flu is very contagious and kills lots of people every year. It's ok to study coronavirus and to try to find ways to effectively manage it, combat it or prevent the disease -- but why are we panicking? Nobody panics about the flu and it's proven to be fatal for a lot of people every year. Why the panic with coronavirus, why are people in this very thread worrying about "the death toll"? Is there any projection that the death toll is going to be higher than usual for a flu?

For what it's worth, my doctor told me "it's like a flu, don't worry". A doctor friend of mine told me the same.

First-To-Market dating app–-LLC or C-Corp?
Long time lurker and new member looking forward to contributing.

Situational background: I am using legalzoom to C Corp in Delaware. They said it’s with sec of state meow (ok I’ll stop) and if I want to convert to LLC I can. I went this route bc I believe this will be first to market and has potential to be high growth so when it’s time to getting certain funding it’s easier for me to raise it. I emailed Trevor Blackwell and very thankful as he responded, and among other things reminded me that numero uno is to build a very quick prototype and show it to potential users pronto. Will do. Lastly, I am bootstrapping this while working full time and fully aware I’ll have to resign at some point. I also live in Irvine, CA, and am a solo founder.

Question: why not LLC in Delaware and convert to C-Corp if and when I find product market fit and we’re making a dent? First to market or not, promising idea or not, the reality is 90% of new dating apps fail, and all this is a ton of money for me. I am not going to complain we all get it and I’m humbled to be in this position. It’s just I think generally C-Corp Delaware is the route for ideas like mine, but my unique circumstances might warrant LLC then convert.

Thanks everyone! Again, looking forward to contributing here anyway I can. Also, please ask me anything.

Happy Wednesday, let’s get some!

> legalised the growing, selling and export of cannabis.

> But the country still restricts the legalization of cannabis for personal use

So you can grow it and even sell it.. But if you dare consume it you're a criminal ? Or the person you sell it to, if they consume it they're breaking the ?

This sounds very odd!

EDIT: My mistake, its for hemp and oil production. That makes way more sense.
In some parts of Africa, growing khat is more lucrative than growing food. This causes acute food shortages. I am not sure how this is going to affect growing food, if cannabis is more lucrative than growing food.
Unlikely, and it sounds like a misunderstanding.

1. There's little tactical advantage from doing something like this. Startups live and die often by lack of demand, not from competitors. Industrial espionage exists, sure, but it makes little sense to spy on a competitor instead of just investing in them.

2. It's harder for VCs to find good companies to invest in than for good companies to find VCs. Word spreads fast (this thread is an example). Shady VCs will get figured out. Since VC is usually a long game, it's counter-productive, unless it's some kind of social engineering in the first place.

3. There's a lot of overlap with new ideas. One of my consulting clients was an experienced entrepreneur, mentor, startup judge. On one of his mentoring sessions, a startup came up with the same idea. We had been building it for a while, so no idea was stolen, and he even poked fun at the team that seemed to be worse at implementing the idea, but he didn't disclose that he was working on the same thing.

4. The goal of a VC meeting would be trying to understand the unique proposition of your product (as well as team and market size).

I guess I'd find this more compelling if it was at all something from the field or actual use cases instead of just a "marketing research" piece. Neither of the authors according to their linked-in have any experience managing outside their current startup; so, I'm a little curious why they chose to write this piece.

Full Stack Developer (go, react, typescript) -> https://grnh.se/cbb28b481

We are building software to help Insurances organise medical treatments for their members better and cheaper. Among other tech we are using go and react in a not-too-granular service architecture with docker and Kubernetes. We are looking for smart and capable individuals that like to work on the full stack, who like to teach, learn and who aspire to high standards. I'd say one of our biggest qualities is our comprehensive approach to career development for engineers.

Very few people can afford to pay a financial advisor that is a true fiduciary (which is what you actually need).

Lacking that, I don't take advice from Reddit, but it's a wonderful source of ideas, which I in turn research and consider myself.
Sources? It seems far too early and there isn't enough reliable observational data, much less scientific trial data, available for broad "scientific agreement".

Although obviously the accuracy of China's data is in question, it's promising that they were able to get the reproduction rate below 1 pretty quickly. And within Wuhan itself the spreading seems to have slowed with something like 0.6% of the population of 11 million infected.

Not to mention in China outside of Wuhan/Hubei, which have conditions much more similar to most of the rest of the world in having some advanced warning of the virus, the spread seems also to have slowed down at a much much lower infection rate.

Based on this information it's not clear to me where the "40-70% of the world getting infected" idea is coming from, though I've seen a few headlines reporting that too.
Wow, this is a huge bummer. A lot of our infrastructure assumptions have been based around having several small GKE clusters.
Based on that article, I'm guessing this is only a thing in the new mobile site. There are a somewhat ridiculous number of ways to browse reddit these days (desktop new/old, mobile new/old, app at least) and they all seem to offer a different set of features. I've used i.reddit.com on mobile for many years now and it hasn't been impacted by any of the nonsense that reddit has been pushing lately (yet).
PowerShell 7.0
It's 1-2 orders of magnitude more deadly than the flu. Some estimates are between 2 and 4% fatality rate for the Covid-19. Flu is 0.1%.

That fatality rate average masks that it is far deadlier for the elderly and high risk patients, with as much as 10-20% fatality rate for that demographic.
I spent DECADES looking for a partner (not just a compatible female). Someone who had a similarly difficult upbringing (difficulty literally surviving it), which colors our standards for happiness or just what's "good enough" and what's qualified as beauty and peace. We are NOT similar in our professions or hobbies, but it works. We got married after 40, after dating increasingly over a decade (we knew each other for a long time) so there's that.
This is really disappointing. GKE was a staple amongst Kubernetes adoption, not only for the feature-set but also that there were no overhead costs.

I hope GCP re-thinks this.

For those suggesting that a COVID-19 vaccine can somehow be fast tracked, consider what happens if something goes wrong during deployment to the population.

The US has an active, very vocal anti-vax community. They've been growing and gaining ground for decades.

The first sign of trouble of any kind with a new COVID-19 vaccine would result in a backlash of biblical proportions. It could be so strong as to derail any attempt at a follower.

For this reason, I expect to see two things:

1. withering pressure from the current administration to cut corners on testing any new vaccine

2. a good chance for disastrous consequences resulting from (1)

Time to dump GCP then. It's not even that the fee is that large, but rather that this is once again Google failing on a long term commitment and shafting those on their platform once again. This was one of the benefits that was pushed by their sales team when they called us up to market GCP over AWS and their EKS offering. Doesn't matter that they are price matching, Google's inability to actually commit to long term support, servicing, pricing or features across any of their products is tiresome. Time to move business elsewhere to AWS or Azure. They may be more expensive, but at least we know what we are paying for, and that it's going to stay that way for a significant length of time.

I also went the other way. I feel that Reddit is more like an all-you-can-eat buffet where the content is mediocre at best and toxic at worst. Even on seemingly innocent subs like r/oldschoolcool or r/earthporn people will launch unprovoked attacks to rebut a simple opinion. There's less tolerance for that kind of hostility here I think. The discussions on HN have more substance, are generally topics I'm keenly interested in, and I find less click-bait on here.

You think that... Tencent had your questions about Kindles censored? But why? That doesn’t even make any sense. Much more likely, the independent moderators of that subreddit decided that it wasn’t a helpful post.
There's no need to write $(V) and $(Q) since they are single letter variables you can just do $V or $Q. Of course, you may prefer the more verbose version.
I think this is fair: for hobbyists, a free zonal cluster is sufficient and you probably wouldn't use more than one cluster. For businesses/revenue drivers, the $7.30/mo/cluster is nothing (EDIT: actually $73/mo/cluster, which may be a tougher sell but if the business is in a case where it benefits from Kubernetes, it's still likely insignificant relative to the cost of actually running the VMs on it )
Thanks for the reply. What is the fatality rate among the elderly and high risk patients for seasonal flu? (say, in the US if there are no worldwide statistics).

I understand the real problem with any flu-like disease is precisely with the elderly and high risk patients. Usually, of course there are always cases of healthy people who die from a flu.

"I wonder what % of purchases go unused for whatever reasons."

the same happens in big companies. W have budget cycles so we buy test equipment when the money is in the budget even at the risk of it never being used. Otherwise you can't buy stuff when you actually need it because at that time the budget isn't there.

Same with hiring people. We are letting good interns go because there is a hiring freeze. 8 weeks later we scramble to find new hires because now we have headcount.

Not sure how to do better but it just shows that planned economies tend to produce waste, be it in a corporation or in a communist state.
