If we're talking about zookeeper for service discovery. The registering application can maintain a connection to zookeeper and ping every few seconds. So zookeeper has a very good idea of what's running or not, usually more accurate than kubernetes.

Actually, zookeeper has API to register only when ready and to listen to events/changes. Not sure kubernetes has equivalent stable API so might be hard to port over.

A rewrite might be a solution, except it's not because it's doomed to fail. We're discussing service discovery, which implies multiple clients and servers, probably managed by different teams and written in different languages. The odds of completing a coordinated rewrite effort are abysmal. ^^

Well. I am thinking out loud. It's a real problem my company was facing. We've got kubernetes clusters that are supposed to run applications and we've got apps using zookeeper that can't run in kubernetes because it breaks the service discovery. I will eventually have to hint people how to make it happen, after one year of kubernetes hardly going anywhere.
I highly recommend Information - A Very Short Introduction by Dr. Luciano Floridi. Dr. Florida’s book is a tremendously important guide to the strange new world opening up in front of us. I’m sure it will become a classic.
It's because of how a "loss" is calculated.

Let's say that an average customer will yield $20 a year for the next 10 years in profit to Doordash. Depending on your discount rate the net present value of that customer is something like $150-175. If Doordash can acquire that customer for $100 worth of advertising and discounts that is a 50-75% return. Obviously they do that and do it as much as they can.

So what will their balance sheet look like if they can do that for 1 million customers? They'd spend 100 million dollars on advertising against a profit of 20 million dollars for a loss of 80 million dollars. Everyone on HN then makes fun of them for losing so much money and jokes about selling $2 for $1. But they actually turned 100 million dollars into 150-175 million dollars worth of customer value. In other words, they made a bunch of money this year and they just won't realize the profits until 5-10 years from now.

One thing that always annoyed me was the time stamps

So much this. Now your example can still be countered somewhat by taking notes and writing down which scan was taken when. This is usually common practice in research.

But it can get worse when trying to integrate integrating MRI scanner software with external systems which do get a correct timestamp (or at least, different one) and which are used for research experiments like presenting stimuli and recording behaviour all together with getting MRI data.

Scanner software usually doesn't provide any means of starting it except for clicking in the UI so that means the people doing such experiment have to start 2 or more pieces of software manually (and hope they don't forget one). Now if one session lasts 10 minutes and it's not uncommon to do test sessions (with no scan) or test scans (with no corresponding experiment) or make a mistake (start scan with wrong parameters, abort, start again) and a complete test takes a couple of hours, imagine the fun of linking all of that session data together correctly based on just timestamps. I don't even know how much time has been lost or many mistakes were made (and possibly published) because of that. But it won't be 0, it's just too easy to mess up.

Of course some of this is out of the manufacturers contro

The most significant attack vector might be the admin of the email service. In European public institutions, the admins have access to your work account (which is healthy and ok). WhatsApp, it’s the equivalent to share a coffee some blocks far away from the office (which is healthy and ok).
I agree with you, and that's why the officer names are redacted. Things we might at first glance think are because of biased/racist/sexist cops might have good explanations. That said, visualizing this data does surface outliers really well, and each outlier should be further investigated IMO.

It all starts with getting all this data into one place, scraped from the thousands of county court records sites. It's a big task, but this data is priceless.

Now that we have same-sex marriage, making it only maternity leave is unjustifiably discriminatory against same-sex unions, not to mention against nonbinary parents. Making this leave completely gender-neutral is simply the simplest, most reasonable option.
It isn't over, those countries have cases on the decline now, the US is still rising. It's fully reasonable to expect that the rise will go even faster now with everything opening up.

Also, the US isn't testing as much and is now also trying to avoid reporting cases in various states that are opening, so it's hard to trust the US numbers.
Send the children away to specialist child care facilities that can look after them at scale. By centralizing the raising of children we can maintain quality control from a young age and ensure that children grow up as model citizens with the best education/development possible.

Using Uber alone for all transportation may be a luxury, but if you're in a situation where you rely heavily public transportation, Uber is a nearly essential addition to it.

Transporting large items, or groceries for an entire family are extremely difficult if not impossible over public transportation. Transporting a group of people (3+) can be approximately the same price on public transportation and Uber without potentially sacrificing comfort, safety, time and effort, many of which can be essential depending on your circumstances.

The cost of using Uber and Public transportation also requires a lot less upfront cost which is necessary for people living paycheck to paycheck and can't afford to spend around $2k on a car, as well as deal with it's maintenance time and cost.

Scrolling through all this I still can't find an explanation. Can anyone shed light on the context of this slur?

One thing to checkout is YouTube build videos, you can often find ~2 minute shorts of a professional installing your exact part into your exact motherboard. This really removed a lot of the anxiety and trepidation I had while installing parts (it was my first time ever). Funny enough I plugged my monitor into the motherboard directly (when you’re supposed to plug it into the GPU) and had a black screen panic until I figured it out.

As far as figuring out what parts I would recommend three strategies:

1) start at reddit.com/r/buildapc and reddit.com/r/buildapcforme and checkout some of the threads at price points you are interested in. These builds will include pcpartpicker lists which are a tool that checks compatibility and general prices for you through a web ui. These builds are not perfect but will give you a general idea for how people are commonly building for the given ~6 month cycle. They all have their own biases, some like to save costs by getting a slightly weaker CPU, some spend more on the motherboard for future proofing, some need more storage so they throw in a giant SSD etc.

2) once you get a feel for the common components you’ll want to pick out your main two items: the cpu and gpu. You’ll already know your options from step one, so this step will be the icing on the cake. As long as you get a powerful cpu and gpu you will most likely be thrilled with your build (also an SSD and decent monitor for completeness). The cpu choice will also help you select a motherboard since that is really the biggest compatibility check throughout the whole process. Watch a video or two if you need help making a selection and to understand how to get your best value. I strongly recommend Paul’s hardware videos or Linus tech tips for a little more entertainment value.

3) now you’re ready to go on pcpartpicker and pick your full parts list with all the secondary pieces that complete your build, first the motherboard, your ram, SSD, psu, and case. From 1 you already have an idea of what you should go for, but now is your chance to tweak things around. If you don’t understand the difference between an nvme SSD or a sata SSD look it up, just like with software development, and you’ll find it easy to make an informed decision. Remember your cpu and gpu were the biggest difference makers so all of these decisions are relatively minor as long as you stick with reputable brands.

Iterate with 3 as much as you’d like. Post the build and see what people say about it. When you feel satisfied buy it and build it with the short YouTube videos demonstrating the exact parts you selected.
These days the only application that is important for a non-computer folks is the browser, and Ubuntu can run Firefox just fine, it's easy to launch and turn off. In my experience, the perception that Linux is somehow 'hard' is just not true, deeply rooted in 2002 or something. Things have changed so much, and whatever kids are taught in school is not that big of a problem anymore.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocene_extinction

The combination of our global population and our resource consumptions per capita have devastated ecologies the world over and led to the deaths of innumerable species and biospheres.

You basically have the choice, then - massively reduce the resources consumed per-capita such that having billions of people doesn't negatively impact the planet or displace the last remnants of nature unsullied by human encroachment, or reduce the population so that the people you do have can consume resources without causing a mass extinction event.

When population reduction is as simple as "stop having kids" that is by far the least harmful mechanism to currently living humans to mitigate the ongoing disaster we are causing the planet. Trying to tell the current first world or developing countries to stop building roads, driving cars, building houses, using convenience products like plastics, stop building technologies that require scarce rare earth minerals that require extraction, stop using electric power in its myriad forms, etc is way more disruptive and harmful to those living today.

I never stated a definition, only questioned them. There's been several posted, changing from immutable characteristics to others like religion, and now also including clothing. Basically any characteristic can be used to group people, in which case mentioning a list of characteristics isn't useful for the definition.

> but that being said, you still need to patch the Mesa libraries to get hardware acceleration working on an old Nexus 7.

Why are these patches needed? If the issue is that graphics has to rely on a proprietary binary, then that's sad but not something that Mesa can do much about. If no non-free code is required, it should be possible to push these patches upstream and make the support official.

The first of those literally says "Unary complement (bit inversion)". That's what the standard says. "Bit inversion" tells you exactly what's supposed to happen, regardless of the architecture of the machine.

Or is your claim that the website, despite being based on the C++ standard, is simplifying it by assuming that all machines are two's-complement? All right then, what is the actual text of the C++ standard? (You're the one making the claim that on ones-complement machines, the standard doesn't require what everyone thinks it does, so you get the burden of proof. Also, I don't have access to the text of the standard.)

So far as I know, the C standard does not differ from the C++ standard on what that operator does. If you claim it does, I'll ask you to document it.

Instead of throwing insults at others' level of knowledge, I suspect you should be a bit more cautious about your own.

It is extremely hard (read impossible) to predict what is going to evolve exponentially or asymptomatically in the future. Look at computing and aerospace for example. Take the state of those 2 domains and ask someone in 1900 where they think we would be in 2000, I am pretty sure they would have been quite far off.

For me it depends on the video game. I've noticed that I'm much more resilient to cognitive disruptors in counterstrike than I am in Starcraft.

Starcraft 2 seems to be very sensitive to my cognitive state. When I've been looked back at my starcraft 2 score, I see it jump right before and during a really productive week.

I also see it drop or stall from a lack of sleep before I notice it in my day to day life or work.

Is this a thing that's happening? I remember how cool I thought FPGAs were from my college CE classes. Seems intuitive to me that you would want to specialize the hardware once you have a process figured out. The fact that FPGAs are upgradable makes it even more of a no brainer to me.
You could say the same for taxis. If uber cost 100$/ride you wouldn't be claiming it is unprecedented. It will die because no one wants to pay for it with the real cost: livable wage + proper car insurance.

Thank you for comparing to E-mail. E-mail federation has been a solved problem for decades. Why on Earth is it so chronically intractable for chat? It's as if every time a new chat app is created, the developer's #1 requirement is: "Must be incompatible with every other chat app"

,"Critically Important", etc. is the most recent whatever caught the attention of a typical S/E/VP with the attention span of a ferret long enough for him/her to be able to utter it in the words. If you're able to highly visibly jump and demonstrate activity during exact that moment - a great talent leading to advancements/promotions - there is no point to react as the next new "critical" directive/change of course/etc. is coming very soon. Of course if your manager is one of those aspiring "talented jumpers", he/she will try to make you jump with him/her - it is a real PITA to have such a manager who instead of filtering and protecting the team from would amplify all that stuff flowing down.
> A trans-person can adopt the form of a male or female but can not actually become a male or female. It is impossible for that person to assume the reproductive function of the opposite sex. The characteristic is immutable.

You mistake my position. Perhaps disambiguation between sex and gender identity would clarify. Sex we can call chromosomal, and is mostly irrelevant to the rest of the discussion. Gender identity is what I perceive my sex should be. We should not discriminate on the basis of sex (the biological) or gender identity (the mental).

> The statement "trans-women are not female" is not hate speech under your definition. Correct?

Would be hate speech based on gender identity, the immutable trait.

> If so you are in an interesting position. You have a direct line of communication to our censor. I would encourage you to post on your company's discussion board "it is not possible for a trans-person to change their sex". Or "trans-women are not female". Or "sex-change operations can not change a person's sex".

Ultimately, of those three statements, I would consider the second hate speech, the third unambiguously true (and mostly uncontroversial, it neither changes biological sex nor does it change gender identity, it changes only presentation), and the first a generally true statement, though perhaps phrased badly: speaking strictly biologically, the answer is obviously no, speaking in terms of gender identity, the answer is still probably no because the question is malformed. One need not change your gender identity. It's immutable. One is free to change your physical appearance to better match your identity, and for some people a (to use the medical term) "Gender Confirmation Surgery" helps to better align their physical appearance with their identity.

Ultimately, we should neither discriminate based on what chromosomes a person has, nor based on someone's immutable mental image of how they should be. I don't really think I need to spend any time responding to the rest of your post, since it is based on faulty assumptions.

Regarding simply having 8/16/32kB, the cache was integrated with the chip itself, it wasn't RAM that lived on the motherboard. So adding more would have required a larger chip.

It was a multifaceted problem, and was ultimately a design flaw/oversight rather than someone saying "I think 4kB is enough memory to store all the textures". The problem is less that the cache was small, it's more that Nintendo's plans for how awesome RDRAM and a unified memory architecture didn't pan out.

Problem #1: There was no dedicated video memory. All RAM on the N64 was shared RAM. So framerates tanked if you didn't have most of your stuff in cache. Keep in mind the framebuffer also lived in this unified memory area, so the video chip was already very noisy on the memory bus.

Problem #2: The unified shared system RAM was RDRAM, not SDRAM. And the latency on RDRAM is absolutely terrible. So the already expensive cost of using RAM was compounded.

If the N64 did what the playstation and saturn did and just have dedicated video/system RAM, and made this RAM relatively low latency SDRAM instead of the relatively high latency RDRAM, this 4kB limitation wouldn't have mattered.
