Ha! I was just goggling furiously yesterday to remember the name of Sunfish. I had a .py called "chess.py" on a server. Not anywhere in the .py file is there a URL or a name or an email.

Anyway after cutting and pasting bits of code into Google I finally turned up the github page. You should put some (basic) info into each file you've got there.

Anyway Sunfish is cool, thanks.
I signed up for the private beta, it looks really cool! Looking forward to it.

I think bluetooth might work with a few specific adapters, pretty sure there was a comment saying as much in the “Carmack helping OpenBSD” thread yesterday. So I guess that, if you’re willing to sacrifice a USB port or two, it could work.

My reservations are more about sleep (even Linux still struggles with that) and power management (ditto). If my daily driver were a tower desktop, I’d probably use OpenBSD.

This reason doesn't make sense to me, because of `+`. If I do `a + b`, you don't know if my intent is to add numbers, join strings, or concatenate lists. If `sum` and `join` are supposed to look different to convey intent, then the binary operators should look different as well.

k8s is not for everyone. It has a high administration and complexity burden. It would be a mistake to make k8s a requirement for core AWS services. Fargate is a low-level compute platform - it is parallel to ec2 and lambda. It does not compete with kubernetes (as can be seen by the eks-on-fargate offering).

There is probably some tension between ECS and k8s - AWS built a container orchestration platform based on what they think the world (and Amazon) needs and then k8s became madly popular. And it's not clear that AWS was wrong because k8s is essentially too complex for many use cases. It makes total sense that they would support both fully.

Calm down, Sparky! Perhaps you misread what I wrote. I did not bring up defamation at all. The term used was conspiracy theory. Rachel Maddow pushed a conspiracy theory. It was completely disproven by the FBI investigation. She pushed it for three years with literally not a shred of evidence.
You can use Wayland with NVIDIA drivers. The problem is that NVIDIA and the open source drivers expose different buffer management APIs and Wayland does not abstract over that, so it has to be explicitly handled by every client application. Some Wayland clients refuse to support both, others had NVIDIA support patched in by NVIDIA itself.
Yes, the people in the forces vary as much as any group no doubt.

The thing that 'pains me' - is that some groups of people simply cannot comprehend the notion of 'duty'. They have an inner cynicism that is so deep, that they cannot believe the notion of 'True Boy Scout'. It's not possible in their worldview.

I'm not referring to civilians legitimately concerned about 'war crimes', I mean to say, civilians who think that 'soldering = murdering' and that's it, i.e. the 'only people who sign up must just want to be killers' or something along those lines.

The 'excessive violence' problem - which will happen - this is altogether another thorny issue. There, it's much more understandable that civilians have a hard time grasping how 'someone was killed' and that it's not outright murder, that the situation is more nuanced when you put 19-year olds with guns 1/2 across the planet and ask them to do hard things.

I respect Michael Jordan's style and am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt from what I saw. He was a hyper-exceptional pushing hyper-exceptionals, who probably saw himself as the center of the universe ... but I don't see arbitrary or demeaning behavior, rather, a hyper-competitive attitude.

It takes a different worldview I think to see how his behavior is within the range of normal.
In ML if you decide not to kiss NVIDIA's ass you're screwed. Figuratively they have 100% market share. Having major alternative backend, even if it's proprietary, will force diversity and that has some upsides I think.

I totally agree with the base sentiment. But until you actually work for a place like this, and understand where the revenue comes from and how it is used, it makes me pause to make those kind of blind statements with exclamation points.

CDK8S doesn't replace Elastic Beanstalk, because the folks using EB are going to continue to use EB. If it ain't broke...

ECS predates EKS, and is better integrated than EKS with their other services. If you want a painless container experience on AWS, ECS for Fargate is what'll you'll want to use today. So both existing folks who use ECS today as well as new customers are going to keep using ECS.

Folks who like K8, perhaps from prior experience, are going to use EKS despite it having some rough corners.

There's a reason why the forest floor in a redwood forest is pretty barren. Redwoods, with their extremely tall, thick trunks, survive forest fires that wipe out smaller plants. Then, their thick canopies prevent light from reaching the ground, preventing most other plants from establishing themselves.
Those two things are compatible. Why wouldn't they be? If you know some truth that others don't, you have more responsibility, not less, to express it in a way that isn't inflammatory. Otherwise you just end up discrediting the truth, because you give the people who don't know it an excellent reason to resist and reject what you're saying. (I don't mean you personally, of course.

People frequently bring this up with a triumphant tone, as if they have the point that trumps all points and they can't wait to blow its horn, certain that all opposition will crumble before them. I'm not sure what's going on there, since there's no logic in this. Is it magic imputed to the word "facts"? Or an inability to think beyond one step? If it made sense, you could win any argument by shouting "1+1=2!" over and over. It's a fact!

Go one step beyond that magic word to see that nothing follows from this. There are infinitely many facts. They don't choose themselves. Humans do that, and they do that for complicated reasons that have nothing to do with "facts" being transparently pure and true. Previous comments on this: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu....

Errors of logic aside, the GP comment was not "facts". The word "brutalize" is an interpretation, not a fact—and let's not get started on "feminism".
We're a 300-year-old country going through major growing pains.

If Signal really puts messages onto their servers behind easy to brute force PINs with the only protection being the SGX pixie dust, and maintainers really don't see a problem with it, then the end to end promise of Signal becomes moot and I'd feel that they'd have betrayed their user's privacy.

However, this is not what they are announcing. Signal does not store any message content in the cloud. It's only your address book as well as the list of blocked accounts. So that you don't completely start from scratch when you lose your phone. This makes total sense.

If you assume that SGX is insecure and Signal can just brute force the PINs (definitely a legitimate view!), then address book equivalent data is already available to Signal in the form of who-talks-to-whom metadata. The only difference is that the metadata needs to be collected over a time span while address books only require short time compromises of the architecture. But this is a minor regression in security, for a large gain in usability.
> how have you been able to switch consistently with such ease?

Originally, it was anything but easy. But at this point in my career, the pattern itself is what sells it:

- I've never left a company having the same title or role I started with. And have always left with substantially greater responsibilities than I started with. Which holds true even for companies I was at for a year or less.

- I've never progressed linearly within the same industry or function when switching companies

- Almost all of my roles from IC to people-manager have involved high levels of trust and autonomy with minimal direct oversight and limited if any pre-existing structure, process, support, infrastructure, or direction.

The above demonstrates over a decade of reliably and successfully adapting between roles and environments, and outlaying it as such when going through my background with a hiring company tends to preempt any reservations/concerns the hiring company has in that regard. I've also now amassed SVP, President, and C-Level recommendations in pretty much every functional area, from individuals that have either directly or indirectly managed me. And can pull in the appropriate reference to address any remaining hesitations around functional capabilities or ramp up expectations. All of which have made my last few transitions significantly easier than earlier in my career.

> And what country do you work, where you are being respected for having industry-naïvety?

I'm in the US. I wouldn't put it as being respected for industry-naïvety, which is one of the reasons you rarely see people grow their career the way I have. I just seek out opportunities where that's not a liability and am fully transparent when I'm in a situation where that may be an expectation. Standard needs get handled (or at least sanity checked) by those with a more standard background if available, abnormal/atypical/ill-defined/unknown needs filter through to me. The value and leverage I provide by bringing to bear my variety of skills, experience, and perspectives in those atypical or rapidly evolving situations more than makes up for the occasional crash course in the basics I need to fill in some industry/functional holes.

The caveat being that I'm pretty useless or even detrimental[1] in many environments - such as companies that are highly regimented and a cross-disciplinary mindset would be antithetical to the culture and cause undesired friction, or in highly stable and mature environments where deviating from standard practices by introducing foreign concepts would destabilize the steady-state of the existing situation. In those situations, I'm far more of a liability than an asset. And will directly probe during the interview process to understand the context of the role and whether it's a good fit for what I bring to the table.

[1] While usually considered detrimental, I've also been placed in those situations with the express intent of introducing such a destabilizing factor or internal friction, as a way to shake things up and allow for change.
First-of-its-kind clean hydrogen plant using 'plasma torches' planned for SoCal
This is currently happening in Venezuela. It is a fascinating economic topic (for the economists here, a good idea for a paper). The historical, low-trust,cut-throat, highly-volatile economic environment in the country , compounded with the absence of an official backing local institution for the US dollar plus the common people ignorance of the value abroad of the dollar is producing the following funny(?) or curious conditions:

- Most big and small businesses will accept the dollar (this was not very common before Maduro) but only in crisp,immaculate bills of 20 USD or above.

- The people you usually give small tips (think the kid who bags your shopping in some supermarkets ) actually get offended if you give them 1-2 bucks.This in a country were the average monthly "salary" is around 10 bucks.

- Some business may take your low denomination bills but with a big fee (10%-20%).

- Prices of goods and services in dollars are absurd. Say, a haircut maybe is 10 cents, but now a plumber wants to charge you 150 bucks just for a "consultation" visit. A dermatologist instead may charge you $30 the consult in a private place and a cardio-toraxic surgeon in a public hospital has a 20 USD/month salary.

- People are importing things like 12 oz Nutella jars and selling them at 20-30 USD, because it has become a luxurious item of conspicuous consumption, as if it were Beluga caviar.

I am pretty sure there is more, but it is getting too depressing (no pun intended)

> Are you saying that Alex Jones's views are just ahead of their time and the culture is not ready for it?

No. In fact I thought I explained that pretty clearly. I said, "So far, we haven't figured out a way to separate good ideas from bad ones besides exposing people to them and seeing which memes reproduce in the population. In other words: If you ban people like Alex Jones, you also ban people who are activists for causes that society will adopt in the future. And we all end up worse off." I don't know how you can interpret that to mean that I am somehow in favor of Jones.

> The entire western world bans holocaust denial, and it hasn't led to a chilling effect on other expressions.

That's not true. For example: David Irving's version of the Goebbels diaries is considered by many (including the late Christopher Hitchens) to be an important work. Irving was imprisoned in Austria for holocaust denial because of something he said 17 years earlier.[1] Apparently the statue of limitations is a long time when it comes to words. There are quite a few other examples, not to mention the chilling effect such laws have. There are also tiny annoyances such as Germany banning the swastika in Wolfenstein games and on models of Zeppelins. Is Germany's society so fragile that a symbol can topple it? They seem to think so.

These laws have a cost. Maybe they're worth it. Maybe they're not. But don't pretend they're pure upside. Many countries have no laws about holocaust denial and get along just fine. Personally, I prefer places and platforms where I can decide for myself what I'm allowed to read and hear.
