No, I run a small nifi cluster (8 nodes) on aws and it is very stable in my opinion. You need a zookeeper cluster, which is also very stable.

I made the setup scalable, which is a nice feature, but you can do without it. Nifi has no problems being scaled down or up.

The biggest problem is when your zookeeper cluster goes down. Nifi happily goes one with processing, but now it can't update the state of its processors, so it keeps doing the same stuff over and over again. Perhaps this is already fixed, dunno. I shut the cluster down now, if I detect zookeeper is down and then start everything up again if zookeeper is ok. But this happens about once in the two year.

It can also talk with LDAP, which is nice in corporate organizations. And it has a shit ton of processors, that do the work for you. If you have lots of etl flows, I can warmly advice to have a look at it.

I update it once every 6 months or so, it is an internal tool. I haven't got a hassle with that yet.

> can see why Elon is going crazy on twitter, he'd almost turned around Telsa and now they may be in the worst cash crunch of their long life

With 8 billion in cash, and 3-4 billion per year burn rate, that's a two year buffer assuming no improvement. That doesn't seem like the worst cash crunch of their long life. What am I missing?
I think it was a stupid thing to say, no doubt. He often says stupid things. But he makes up for that in other areas, which is why I will vote for him.
Same thing happened to me. I was in the single digits for Vitamin D, and my doc had me taking 10000 a day (or week) I think. Within a month, I started to feel way more energy in the afternoon (I used to feel dead by 1pm). I also mysteriously kept getting sick with small colds that winter before supplementing, and those also went away.
If it weren't for video chat and e-commerce, we couldn't have even contemplated shutting down so many businesses and pushing people to work from home. None of this would have happened.

Maybe consider moranalytics (although it may have "moron" associations) or "molytics" (tagline: mo' lytics, mo' problems).
A psychiatrist I saw multiple years ago told me to start taking Vitamin D. I went more or less blindly with 5,000 IU after reading some internet articles.

I got my blood checked last year and decided I should probably actually know if I'm doing too much or too little. I was within 5% of the middle of the healthy range for vitamin D levels. For reference, 5,000 IU is >800% the FDA daily recommended value. People with indoor jobs and hobbies are probably not getting enough.
It's probably best understood as either job audition, fund-raising, or mathematical entertainment.
Also: even if it was "just the flu": another flu would be a catastrophe all its own! You can still die of the flu, even in the post-C19 (or F19) world!

> We can't have one party, that's not safe for us as the citizenry for obvious reasons.

Why not? If one party doesn't actually want to govern, kill it.

In addition, the Democrats are hardly a unified bloc. And, if the Democrats, themselves, split into 2 parties because they have buried the Republicans, that would solve your problem, no?

California is your counterexample. Excising the Republican party like a tumor made things a LOT better.

I see burying the Republican party as a patriotic duty at this point. It is so rife with corruption from Russian and Chinese infiltration that it should be regarded as a foreign enemy.

Why are you going all up and down this thread trying to pedantically show that people are using the term "pension" slightly differently to Wikipedia's definition? It's not contributing anything to the discussion.
People need to understand, the value of a 100% of final-salary pension for people earning 100K retiring at 55-60 is likely millions. It's even worse with the games people play with PTO and other benefits (where they bump pay 20-30% in their last year to get that pension benefit for the rest of their lives).

Look at the average retiree's 401(k) balance for comparison and it gets pretty clear how unfair this is. There's a huge political opportunity for someone to tell this story properly and get a restructuring done.
Of course there are Rimbauds, and there are Monets. That's beyond dispute. The implication I'm not sure about is whether the former outnumber the latter.

It's psychologically understandable for someone who's accumulated considerable life experience to feel more nostalgic towards the freshness of being unexperienced.
Wow, it is interesting how the censorship in HN grows over time. Looks like Reddit again.

You can not write pretty mundane things without being downvoted.

The flu kills a lot of people(thousands in my country) every year. When last year I had the reported problems the doctors were not surprised, it was normal for them.

Being downvoted for saying that?

I am not implying that covid is not dangerous for lots of people(because I experience it weakly), but that normal flu is dangerous too, specially for old people.

I think humor is one of those language areas that is hard to achieve in a foreign language. It seems to me that if you can do that well then you've reached a good milestone.

English idioms are hard, even for native speakers, so you might want to get a book on those.

I knew of someone that kept his English sharp by reading whole newspapers every day. You might want to do the same thing by going to one of the big English newspaper sites. The opinion/review area is usually where you will find writers using the more common form of the language.

Additionally, to that, I would start a blog or some other writing form that will force you to practice what you've learned on a regular basis. You need to go back and review what you've written and see where you've made mistakes. You might need some help with that.

Good luck!
Epidemics are a statistical game, not a black-and-white one.

We aren't realistically out to completely eliminate high-mortality pandemics, but reduce the changes. E.g., perhaps we can make the hundred year event a thousand year event, and the population mortality 1-2% rather than 10-20%.

The question is not whether the Wuhan wet market was definitively the origin of SARS-Cov-2/Covid-19 in humans, but whether it, and similar markets significantly increase the chances of a similar event in the future.

> So at this point we can't really say the "fix" is to remove these markets, can we?

Yes, I think we can. Given what we know of how viruses evolve, mutate and the mechanisms by which they move from various animals to humans, we want to minimize the points where people come into contact with large amounts and variety of raw animal matter in highly unsanitary conditions. Wet markets are probably the lowest hanging fruit in that category.
So? I haven't read any of this studies either, but I'd expect seralogical studies to likewise indicate that positive flu test results are a small fraction of the total number of cases, and likely the most severe subset.

That is my takeaway: PMs and non-developers - you must think through the entire workflow. When you don't, your engineers will and will either pepper you with questions that you are not prepared for or they will decide for you.
>They are not out here trying to trap helpless children into a contract

Yes they are. Did you not read their tweet? They literally called it a contract and said that they believe anybody who replies to them with that hashtag is agreeing to its terms. Their choice not to exercise the rights they are granted by that contract doesn't mean that there isn't a contract.

The only thing that does mean there isn't a contract is that their logic is bullshit and they can't unilaterally decide that somebody else has entered into a contract with them.

Google home is such an uncustomisable waste of time.

I ended up getting a 7.5 inch display from waveshare.

What I want is to know when the trains from my nearby train station leaves.

So I pulled the data off the UK National rail who have a free API.

And got some weather from the openweathermap API.

Given a large enough sample size, you're also going to get people who recover, test negative due to a false negative, then get influenza two weeks later, then test positive due to dead SARS-COV-2 RNA.

And various other edge case permutations like that.
I'd rather work with someone like that, too. All is well and good when one can crank out React components, but if that same person doesn't know how to find, for example, the tag name of a element from an event handler, a little red flag goes up for me, and as you said, probably doesn't know a great deal about what's going on under the hood.

Like others have mentioned here, simply pointing out examples where microservices have failed doesn't imply that microservices can't succeed. I've attempted to bake bread twice and they both failed. I didn't conclude that baking bread can't be done, but that my skills to do it were insufficient.

There are lots of examples of successful companies using microservices, but I believe the real problem is in defining what constitutes a microservice. Most people call things "microservices" that are nothing of the sort. I can unequivocally say if you built a "service" that depends on other things being 100% available (like another "service") than you haven't built a microservice (ie: those things you built shouldn't be called services).

By that token, autonomy is a pretty important factor. The Udi Dahan teachings (https://particular.net/adsd) (currently available for free) promote this style of architecture. A concrete example of a toolkit for building true microservices can be found in Message DB (https://github.com/message-db/message-db) and/or Eventide (http://docs.eventide-project.org/)

I wouldn't suggest, however, that anyone can just watch the course, pick up these tools and succeed. Like baking a good loaf of bread, it takes a lot of skill, work and experience. Whether or not you succeed at building microservices is ultimately up to you and your team.
If you're a man, you can give blood to get this effect. I believe there was a study linking this to a decline in diabetes risk (or something like that).
> This seems like a great time for Amazon or Google to buy Lyft.

This is the same strategy of course that Google used to shut down a lot of it's activism. The solution, of course, is for tech workers to formally unionize and enjoy the legal protections and bargaining power than come with that.

Tech companies are basically now going through the exact same processes previous generations of corporations went through decades ago. It'll be interesting to see if they remain as wildly profitable and competitive once they're subject to the same amounts of regulation and scrutiny as their predecessors.
Back in 2015, it was still "Perl 6" as it had been for more than a decade and as it stayed until about six months ago. Rakudo Star 2015.09 had come out as "a useful, useable" release which was why I tried it. In a sense, the renaming points to how much still remained to be done over the next four years. Lots of little things that create small frictions. And it's easy to say "Well, just..." to each of them, and for other people that's surely enough but I learned that I didn't want to deal with it. Ultimately, it was a case of not fitting with the Perl 6 community, not because of hostility or anything negative. I didn't fit because Perl 6 assumed a background I didn't have and addresses an important set of problems that I don't have either. That's one of the important things I learned since selecting techs back in 2015.
There's not. Airline pilots don't start out in airliners. They don't even start in turbine-powered aircraft. They usually don't even start in multi-engine aircraft. That's because learning how to fly is hard enough without also learning to operate a very complicated machine.

Learning to fly at its most basic is much more than just stick-and-rudder skills. There is a lot of information to learn, procedures, airspace, radio work, etc.

It's best to learn how to fly in the simplest safe aircraft possible. Then when you have to learn to operated a very complicated machine you don't even have to think about the flying part.

Complex aircraft are also much more expensive per flight hour, so it makes sense to learn on the cheapest safe thing you can fly then let your employer foot the bill for the type rating.
You aren't wrong. Most of the central banks loans went into inflating the price of stocks, bonds, and real estate. Inflation in those assets has been running over 10% a year. While goods, services, and wages has been running 2% per year. That's all due to central bank operations.

It's 2020, and people are elated to discover that it is possible to transfer a file directly between two systems on the Internet.

True story: I was giving a guest lecture on network virtualization at UCI and demoing ZeroTier. One student came up afterwords and asked me how traffic could flow between systems without "a cloud." Evidently the idea that data could just go directly from point A to point B was utterly, completely foreign to the point that they weren't aware that the Internet could be used this way.

I have something similar that shows when the next bus is leaving our nearest stop.

I really like it, and I would be tempted to invest in something larger for putting my calendar on the wall in my home office, but the big problem with this sort of thing is that cases are always a disaster.

My bus Pi is in a really janky case because there was only really a couple that would fit with the ePaper display on it.

If I could buy something about A4 size, in a sleek case that I could wall mount nicely, and have good hackability on, I would absolutely do it.

> Another thing I'd like to see is some sort of version control and changelog/commit message functionality. Having access to the current events and their context is one thing. Having context around what changed and why is another layer of value that is critical for teams that may not be closely interacting on making these changes.

versioning I am currently working on. So you are able to go back in history and see what events were tracked for each version.

> I don't understand why the JS is run in a separate thread, rather than just using the UI thread for UI (as it's intended for). By making all the interaction with the native toolkit asynchronous, it adds extra latency and leads to unavoidable glitches in native widgets used as controlled components.

Totally agreed. I’m working on an alternative to React Native that addresses exactly this: React NativeScript.

In NativeScript (and thus also React NativeScript), the JS logic and the UI both execute on the UI thread. Furthermore, you can synchronously access any native API without needing to set up bridging code; bindings to the whole Obj-C/Java runtimes are ready-generated to begin with.
