Wow I read that headline wrong. I read it as 'Oregon Transplants..." and was wondering what reduced collisions had to do with people moving into state.

I've definitely noticed a lot more bad drivers on the road recently. I think I've hit my dashcam button more times in the last month than I have in all the years combined.

Wendover also just did a pretty nice video on risk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtX-Ibi21tU).

I think you are underestimating the hardness of tracking the many users of Windows, and different bugs they might have.

Microsoft have a team of people who look at crash reports, and categorise the results (see for example https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20050412-47/?p=35... , just a quick thing I found).

Having the ability to track the crashes of millions of machines, to find patterns in which drivers are crashing which applications, seems like an impossible thing to replace.

Exactly. I've got a blog with dozens of technical documents about JS and other topics. That would be an ideal place to harvest this type of information, from developers actively looking for a solution to a particular problem.
People here are constantly lamenting the lack of good multitouch on anything but a Macbook, especially in Linux. If Fingerworks had stayed as an independent company they could also sell their touchpads to Microsoft for the Surface. Of course Apple bought them before they were a well known brand; maybe that's why their acquisitions are more successful.
Yes, any results?

Why You're Better Off Being Wrong
So should YouTube not be allowed to have any standards about what they want on their platform? Should they be forced to allow porn?

YouTube does not have a monopoly on video streaming. There is nothing stopping anyone from paying for the bandwidth and streaming anything they want by renting computer hardware and bandwidth from a colo.
Take a look at http://whatstheharm.net/

That should give you a better idea of what harms alternative medicine quackery can cause.

I think YouTube fits in perfectly with Google. It allows them to offer another medium of advertisement (video) to their customers. If YouTube was split off, both creator earnings and YouTube earnings would fall through the floor because the ads wouldn't be worth so much without Google's targeting algorithm behind it.

An unrelated company to their business model is something like Waymo
You don't even need to imagine it, that's the reality we are living in right now.
My preference is either a non-interactive tool (e.g. sed, grep, csvkit and stuff like that), or a full GUI application.
As someone who tries to avoid driving where possible (I prefer walking, biking, public transit for reasons), driving after not having done so for several weeks or even days definitely has a noticeable degradation in skill.

The few times I've been out recently, I've definitely noticed that the other drivers on the road do not appear nearly as confident or comfortable.

Just another point of anecdotal data for what it's worth.
FWIW I had the same question, and the way you asked it seems legit to me.
> the geography of North America surely did not change since white man came

Effectively, it did change. The Erie Canal, the Welland Canal, and the Illinois & Michigan Canal were transformative. And then the railroads came...

That's more or less what I was saying? My european bank card is a debet card. If I pay online, it redirects to a page for my bank. This does a 2 factor authentication. The 2FA challenge contains the monetary amount and the IBAN check digits, so even MITM is hard.
> Forced reboots for updates even if the computer is in the middle of a long-running task

Oh God don't get me started. Few days ago I was in the middle of a videoconference with some important people, when suddenly my screen went blue, flashed a Windows spinner and the word "Restarting", and boom. It just rebooted. With no warning, despite me being on a videocall, on Microsoft Teams of all things! And within the "active hours". How this behavior is acceptable is beyond me.
Exactly! So you should start a SaaS company and get the hell away from spending monthly fees to find your next time consuming manual sale.
As someone who has ran a number of messaging systems in production, this is what my current take is in general:

If you are moving to a more "event-sourced" architecture, usually two main concerns (beyond basic operational stuff of uptime, scale, etc) are routing and long-term retention.

RabbitMQ has the routing but not the retention. Kafka can have the retention and the routing, but it can be complex/expensive. Apache Pulsar really shines here as the API is pub/sub but it is underpinned by a log structure that gives you long-term retention (that doesn't need to be manually re-balanced) but it's flexibility does come with some operation complexity when compared to RabbitMQ.

If your needs is pretty much just moving large amounts of data, Kafka is definitely the most mature and has a big ecosystem, but long term-retention is difficult and there are some sharp edges around consumer groups.

If you really really don't need long-term retention and need complex topologies, RabbitMQ is your best bet and is fairly reasonable to operate even up to fairly high message rates (~10k msgs/sec shouldn't be too hard to achieve)

There are a TON more options these days though, older more java solutions like activeMQ and rocketMQ or more "minimal" implementations like NATs, not to mention the hosted services on cloud providers.

Personally, I am a big fan of Apache Pulsar for it's flexibility and some nice design choices, but I don't think there is any silver bullet in this space.
plus, you know, a tiny little teeny part of the population might want to buy a house, start a family or make location-specific commitments that last more than 6 months.
Whoa there silver. Just because a few tech companies are giving up their space doesn’t mean commercial office space is doomed. There are still plenty of non-tech companies and local businesses (like law firms) that I doubt will be going away.

Tech companies have a huge incentive here - they can now start hiring engineers at non Bay Area prices. Which, if enough companies do it, means your salaries are at risk. Nobody cares that it’s expensive to live here, they only pay because they all insisted on in person offices. By going remote they can stop paying Bay Area rents and compensation levels.
This is either sarcasm or a troll.
I really hope this doesn't become a bigger trend. Shopify was a company I was seriously considering working at in the future, but this would probably disqualify them. Working from home once a week sounds great to me, but doing it full time would drive me insane. Virtual meetings are awful for me, and you miss out on so much of the discussion that happens outside of the meeting - I think most of the important discussions I have with people are informal, either walking to or from meetings or just sitting in the office and talking for a few minutes. Communicating over video is also a lot harder for me since you miss out on a lot of the nonverbal cues that come across a lot better (and with lower latency) in person.

Outside of just being harder to communicate virtually, I really need the change of scenery and social interaction that comes with an office. Sure you can get that by joining different social groups outside of work, but that requires lots of intentional effort, and I actually enjoy hanging out at work and going to lunch with my coworkers. And the office has lots of perks like snacks and meals which can't be easily replicated at home (I mean I don't mind cooking, but I get much better lunches at work than the sandwich I would make for myself). I can't think of a working situation much better than going to an office where I have all of the food I need, a properly set up workstation, and coworkers I am able to talk to in person and go to lunch/dinner/social activities with. To me that is far better than sitting in my home alone all day (and I don't even have kids, which would be a whole other set of distractions).
>If I wanted to stay home forever

Remote First != stay at home forever. You're being deliberately inflammatory towards people who prefer to have control of their surroundings, including the people they surround themselves with.
Yes!

I was actually just looking at a job posting at the Simons Foundation, which makes its omission that much more embarrassing. The Schwartz Foundation also paid for some stuff (and a lot of pizza) in grad school,so I should give them a nod! CZI and Simons/Flatiron have their own buildings. I think GBM and Sloan are more grant-making organizations.

There's also DE Shaw Research, which is particularly interesting since the billionaire in question works there himself.
There are MANY vendors that supply hardware security modules that make their information available via PKCS#11 modules. From smartcards to TPMs to dedicated large HSM devices.

There are many advantages of something like PKCS#11 over One-Time-Passwords (TOTP/HOTP):

1. Since you have an X.509v3 certificate, you have an identity not just an authenticator -- so when you are using this certificate to login to systems, you don't also have to supply an identification (though most systems let you optionally supply one, e.g., if you can login with multiple usernames and the same credential).

2. PKIX covers a lot more use cases than OTP, things like Kerberos (PKINIT), TLS (TLS Client Certificates), SSH (PKIXSSH et al), digital email signing (S/MIME), code signing, commit signing, and more

3. The device is basically a second computer, so it can run software policies on it to do various things like if you authenticate incorrectly a few times in a row it can zero itself out, with OTP systems that has to be coordinated by the various systems validating the OTP token.
Hard to know what net impact will be. They aren’t getting rid of space, just allowing digital first. Fewer people in the office, but Covid19 may result in people in the office getting more space per person than previously.

The productivity gains of WFH might be only in comparison to awful open office plans, and may disappear when compared to more private office layouts. There are still major questions about long term impact to new hires and their growth, where retention takes a hit (employees feel more like free agents and consequently switch jobs more frequently), etc.

It seems incredibly short sighted to be making these decisions on the basis of a 3 month experiment with confounding factors (to say the least!).
Hey, that's a great idea!

Instead of getting warned or banned, a user is placed in a timeout box where all of their posts get a three day lag and remain editable, and when the user logs in, they must re-read their posts before proceeding to the site. Kind of an 'in-your-face' reminder not to be a troll.

It wouldn't stop the insane trolls, but maybe it would give the borderline trolls time to think.
Why shouldn’t I as an advertiser not be allowed to choose which content I want my products to be associated with? It amazes me how willing HN posters are willing to give up power to the government.
I don't know if our government policies and past acctions, assuming you're a fellow American, are any better. I am not just talking about the current administration.
Managed hosting is much more than what DO does, I suppose. They offer services like setting up a Wordpress, emails, nameservers, etc. for people who don't want or don't know how to. You sell customer service basically, you talk to people on the phone, usually works better within your local community.

Edit: and I suppose HostLaunch's edge is to get all the hassle of setting up that business out of the way so you can focus on customer service instead of plumbing servers together.
In terms of market cap, Shopify must be by far the largest employer to announce this wfh shift
This has been my experience as well. I heard that rust-analyzer had superior IDE support but that does not currently seem to be true on VSCode.
Does anyone know of any big name brands using RabbitMQ? And if so, what specifically for?
Or use cookies, a token in the URL, or any of the existing CSRF mitigation strategies. This is not a new problem. Sensitive and destructive HTTP endpoints open to third-party origins is a bug with many existing solutions.
If the ZeroMQ community seems quieter lately it's because things work well and there's not much left to do within the project's intentionally limited scope. libzmq is certainly maintained.

Our company has been using ZeroMQ for over 8 years. We'll be putting out another ZeroMQ-based open source project soon too.
While it may be very stable, the business case for upgrading sooner rather than later is not being behind the 8-ball when 9.6 EOL comes in a year.
Let's see if G2A does... they've profited from not doing so for a long time. They knew, they didn't care and they sold other people's work for their own profit. They earned plenty of skepticism and this wasn't a one off mistake, it was exactly how they chose to do business for a long time...
I don't understand the point of not blocking all of those ranges. Why should the browser bother trying to figure out which ones are actually used on a particular LAN? All of those IP ranges are designated as private, and that in itself should be reason enough for browsers to block websocket connections to them.
That article is talking about Remote Assistance, which lets you explicitly grant temporary permission to someone you trust (not just a Microsoft engineer, but anyone you choose) - and you can see what they are doing because you're sharing your screen.

The GP comment seemed to imply that Microsoft engineers could log in remotely without your knowledge or consent.
My general problem is that it's really hard to figure out which architecture is right for which system.

There's a different architecture for:

* one queue with billions of messages

* a millions of queues with small numbers of messages per queue

* many queues with many messages per queue

There are also different topologies:

* Anyone can send a message to anyone (O(n^2) queues)

* One publisher with millions of subscribers

* One subscribed with millions of publishers

* Complex processing networks, where messages get routed in complex ways between processing nodes.

There are differences in timing:

* More-or-less instant push notifications

* Jobs which run within e.g. 5 minutes with polling

* Jobs which run in hours/days, with a cron-style architecture

And in reliability:

* Messages get delivered 100% of the time, and archived once delivered

* Messages get delivered 99.999% of the time, but might be dropped on a system outage

* ... all the way down to ephemeral pub-subs

... and so on.

I'd give my VP's right eye to get a nice chart of what supports what. For the most part, I've found build to be cheaper than buy due to lack of benchmarks and documentation for my use cases. Otherwise, you build. You benchmark. You optimize. And things melt down.

My use case right now requires a large number of queues (eventually millions). I'd like to have an archival record of messages. Peak volume is moderate (several messages per second per queue), but usage patterns are sporadic (most queues are idle most of the time). Routing is slightly complex but not supper-complex (typically, about 30 sources per sink, at most 200; most sources only go to one sink, but might go to 2-3). Messages are relatively small (typically, around 1k), but isolated messages might be much bigger (still <1MB, but not small).

My experience has been that when I throw something like that into pick-your-queue/pub-sub, things melt down at some point, and building representative benchmarks is a ton of work.
Not that I'm arguing for China but that was always the case since the takover right? I mean that it will happen before 2047 or sooner as a part of a gradual change

>In accordance with the "one country, two systems" principle agreed between the UK and China, the socialist system of China would not be practised in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), and Hong Kong's previous capitalist system and its way of life would remain unchanged for a period of 50 years until 2047 [0]

I get that argument but I fear that the organ donation system in general can lead to really perverse incentives in some cases. If you show up to the ER alive but on deaths door and the doc knows you will be a good donor will they work as hard to save you?
I've been using something like this for exponential backoffs, but I think it'd work for this case as well.

Let's say you've got one exchange and one main queue for processing: jobs.exchange and jobs.queue respectively.

If you need to schedule something for later, you'd assert a new queue with a TTL for the target amount of time (scheduled-jobs-<time>.queue). Also set an expiry of some amount of time, so it'd get cleaned up if nothing had been scheduled for that particular time in a while. Finally, have its dead-letter-exchange set to jobs.exchange.

This could lead to a bunch of temporary queues, but the expiration should clean them up when they haven't been used for a bit.
Dont worry. People will get very upset on Facebook and Twitter. All while they'll install a new app without reading what it does or who its from...
Kinda sounds like you're arguing both sides of the issue.

Offices are meant to be productive, but real estate in SF, NYC, etc makes it too expensive to design offices for productivity.

The batteries are still too heavy for electric to make sense in my opinion.
Excellent points. You also get at a key issue around volume of moderation tasks.
The Chinese takeover of HK will be an excellent case study for the thesis from Why Nation's Fail
This is absolutely true, and it's unfortunate that the current format of sites like Reddit and HN discourage this kind of behavior. The comments that get the most votes are the ones that have been present the longest, which incentivizes early and fast, "shoot from the hip" commenting so your comments get into the flow early where people can see and vote on them. In most large subreddits, it's basically not worth your time to comment on anything more than 12 hours old or so: no one but the original poster (and sometimes not even them!) will see or read your comments.

I'm not sure how best to fix that. Some subreddits like /r/scenesfromahat use a timed-release system that only displays vote scores on comments after a fixed period (12 or 24 hours, I forget which). That at least helps reduce the first-comment effect, but it still means that anything after the votes are revealed is basically not going to be seen.

No, this would just make the security problem worse, because now any website could use websockets to scan, not just your personal LAN, but any network you are connected to through a VPN or any other gateway.

The argument is fundamentally the same. The benefit outweighs the cost by a large margin. There are social and psychological reasons for not donating organs after death that apply to blood donation as well.
I'm in the same boat! One Windows laptop in the house dedicated to MS Money. With 27 years of financial history, and counting, it still does everything I need it to. Once a year I export it into Excel to do some forecasting and analysis. I'd really love if there were a reliable and future-proof way to get at the data.

It’s appeasement in a new form. We are all acting like corporate Neville Chamberlains. A lot of bad behavior is truly subjective, but the stuff China is doing is not. Any arguments against that suggestion usually fall under the realm of moral relativism, e.g ‘But what about what all the shit America does?’. We’ll discuss America in America’s in own thread, there’s plenty there to rip apart.

Quite frankly, the Chinese people demonstrably have a weak value system when it comes to these issues, exemplified by inaction (what are these people willing protest? Is it a matter of willingness or is it entirely possible they see nothing wrong with the camps or the subjugation of Hong Kong?).

The criticism certainly won’t come from within China, so it must come from outside.

Overclocking has always been about eating into the design/binning margins. So sorta by definition if a CPU doesn't "overclock" its because its already overclocked.

What intel is doing here isn't "overclocking" they are just tightening their CPU margins up to the same levels that AMD has.

AKA, intel isn't overclocking their cpu anymore than AMD is. The only real difference is what the fmax of the design is, which in this case appears higher for the intel parts.

Now if you want to argue about how efficient a design is at a certain power level, that is more logical. And its a semi interesting case (aka downclock the intel slightly so that the perf on a given benchmark is identical to the AMD, then measure the power utilization).
