That's getting absurd. The supply of a widget that I just made of paperclip at $1M apiece will never outstrip supply, even though there's just one of such widgets, because there's exactly zero demand at that price. You can define any shortage out of existence this way.

Perhaps your point is that, on a free market, the supply and demand will always meet at the right price point. Yes, that works long-term. Short-term, it doesn't, because sellers have every reason to look at the first and second derivative of the price - to hold off selling until they believe the demand for a product is about to reach its peak - and only then actually sell out their supply. This of course will cause the prices to go down, but by that time, the emergency may just be over, and a lot of people who needed the product then will have suffered and/or died.

The way I see it, this is literally the same mechanism stock trading is based on, and yet nobody here seems to have a problem understanding it there. Supply and demand, right? So if I know the demand tomorrow will be larger than today, I'll hold off selling my stocks, and I'll hold them until the point I see demand starting to fall back down.
Looks like these piezo chips are used for cordless stove fans. Just enough to run low power fan.
You have natural commons. Supply of fish is one.

Glad to hear that. This will enable the free market to work properly in this space.
That's great advice, thanks! What sources of data were you pulling into your transactions table at that company? For instance: payment data from Stripe?
Some of my users have reported similar issue to me, we use Google captcha service.

I've also had more than the usual amount of blockage by CloudFlare when I'm visiting sites from my residential connection. The page from CF asks me to contact the site owner (how? I cant get to the site, reminds me of that old "you didn't get my email that email was down?")
This is perhaps a good example of how sometimes you can't force the hand of progress, it simply takes some time. So many ideas that were novel additions to Javascript at the time but are standard practice in one form or another today. The touted reason for its failure was lack of backwards compatibility, but I can't help but wonder how much of it was simply browser wars and different factions refusing to cooperate. In 2008, Internet Explorer still held majority of the web, Firefox was a big player and Chrome had just barely entered the scene.
Like we didn't hear this message about how violent the police is to black people. We heard it enough, I am not convinced and all this looting doesn't help to convince me.

I am convinced that the police in the US is extra violent comparing to other countries but I am not at all convinced they are specifically violent against blacks, if anything I can see why they should be considering this behaviour. I also understand that they must be more strict because of all the guns and weapons going around comparing to other countries.

I haven't seen such riots when police in the US killed white people with no justification so I don't understand the point of all of this, it is just senseless violence, even more senseless than the regular violence among black communities, at least in those cases there is some criminal motives like someone invaded a drug selling territory and get shot for that.

I am not American but my only conclusion from all of this is that we should strive for homogenous society as much as possible, mixing different populations with each other will always cause problems. Diversity is a disaster everywhere and will never work.

Did I "hear" the message correctly? If not maybe they should try a different method.
I long ago decided not to do anything that requires using recaptcha. Saves a huge amount of frustration. You can always find a different bank, although I can see that that is going to be pretty frustrating for you in the short term.
Out of curiosity what fundamentals that you think are necessary for ML are present in the article ?

I could find none.
Xero user here. Would leave in a second if I could. Why:

- Next to nothing in terms of expense graphs.

- Terrible API for polling for alerts based on reports.

- Saving custom reports not really a thing.

- Mobile app is hot garbage.

- Bank feeds drop a lot.

- My accounting firm not a fan.

- One light blue skin forever, like being relegated to a blue hell.

- Integrates with things like Zapier & Integromat, but not deeply.

- Parsing JSON reporting via Integromat is pure pain.
I’d much prefer to see people focus on tiny after compiler than tiny in source code.

Making it hard for humans to read by removing white space is fun and all, but entirely pointless to the machine.
> Is this person less important than me?

Consider the problem you're having. We'll stipulate this person isn't less important than you. But there isn't enough supply for both, so one of you will go without. If we use pricing to determine who it is, the result is arbitrary -- not based on importance. But if we sell at the non-shortage price until we run out, the result is still arbitrary -- you haven't improved it, it's still not based on importance and someone equally deserving still goes without. The arbitrary method used is different, but it's neither worse nor better.

Meanwhile the higher prices deter the person who was going to go in and buy out the entire store, because they can't afford to do that at the higher price, and then the supply is at least more evenly distributed even if it isn't perfectly evenly distributed.

Better yet, the person who had foresight and spent resources to create a stockpile ahead of time then has a large financial incentive to distribute it instead of continuing to hoard it, and people have a greater incentive to do that again next time (which is good).
It's interesting that CNN article readily categorizes others as liberal or conservative but not itself:

I feel the same way. I might borrow some of the techniques. The plain text with <br> tags makes for really clean code on the index page and I like how the dates are done there too. Last week I created the Neat CSS framework to try to distill my own thoughts on minimal site design.

I disagree with a couple decisions, such as the font size, font tag, the table, and using non-breaking spaces to indent paragraphs, but I applaud this person for keeping it simple.

They probably didn't expect their code to be scrutinized, either. The content is great and I'm only being critical because I like it's simplicity so that got me to look.

You could make a similar argument about selling on Amazon. They have rules that you must obey if you want to sell products on their marketplace. If they were not allowed to moderate the content and curate it, then the amazon marketplace would be less appealing to customers and sellers.

Twitter should be able to moderate and curate it's content to protect their brand image. If they don't challenge lies on their platform and remove toxic content, Twitter will become less attractive platform for both individuals and advertisers.
This is the thread the parent comment is talking about, I think.

It’s interesting to think about and tinker with maybe, but I don’t see the merit to using this for real life projects.

In fact I’d recommend against it, considering the better alternatives and the fact that this is yet another thing that can break and has to be maintained.

I often hear people argue that XYZ is simple so it’s no big deal to use it. But the reality is that code changes hands often and every person who touches code incurs the extra bit of cognitive load.

Just use Typescript.
The situation sounds impossible. I hope you are able to manage when more people lave.

That being said, what's going on right now? Literally right in this moment.

What is the next, smallest, most immediate action? Do that.
Traditional small wood stoves are absolutely atrocious for the environment. Compared to an industrial-scale power plant, small wood fires don't burn as cleanly, have fewer scrubbers on their exhaust, and are much less efficient. Their only saving grace is that they're small, and thus the scale of the problem is also small, but that only holds as long as they're also rare. Even with the relatively few wood fires we have today, the effects on air quality are noticeable:

> Toronto Public Health (2002) estimated that residential wood burning accounts for 11 percent of the PM2.5 found in Ontario’s air, 0.8 percent of the total particulate matter (TPM) and 15 percent of the VOCs. (http://cleanairhamilton.ca/wood-burning/)
A couple of companies asked for it, but I couldn't agree more with you.

We are in the design phase of these implementations, as there is a lot more than code to consider for a self-hosted version.

Thanks for the advice, it's great to get your view on it.
This is...not great. I'm not an editor and not trying to provide free advice to the authors, but this is basically spam. Part of it sounds like it is geared for a total layman to mention some concepts, and part of it talks about learning Python and Julia? It's just odd. How is this on the front page?

People will just make the argument that a drone patrolling is no worse than a police officer in his vehicle patrolling or a helicopter patrolling, both of which are incredibly common.
I don't know either. I think all of this is obviously couched in the fact that the poor initial US response to Coronavirus has made it politically expedient to [make this a story about China] (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/gop-memo-advises-candidates...)

That doesn't mean the WHO or China have clean hands, just that in an election year for the US my bias would lean towards this being about politics.

1st Question : Define k8s network, in detail, with all of the services and a set of services

IF you make it out of that one and the follow ups we can move on to the rest
Yeah, I think people are overthinking it. The real reason is that if you do a superficial investigation you will quickly come back with the impression that k8s is near universally supported across cloud vendors and gives an appearance of providing a portable solution where otherwise the only alternative would be vendor lock-in. It makes it a no-brainer for anybody starting out with a new cloud deployment.
If your baby needs formula, and the supply is disrupted, the choices are generally, with price gouging, you wouldn't be able to feed your baby because the formula is too expensive, and without price gouging, you wouldn't be able to feed your baby, because you didn't get to the store while they still had it.

With feeding babies, there are other options to feeding formula for many babies. The question is which option gets more formula to babies that don't have good other options.

With price gouging, the parents of babies with options may have a threshold price, maybe they're willing to pay normal price but no higher, or 2x normal price or whatever. As prices rise, demand from this population will drop, but demand from babies without good other options is rather inelastic, so a lot of the formula will go to babies without good options.

With a fixed price, the demand can't be fulfilled because supply was disrupted, and distribution is essentially random. Some babies who didn't get formula have other good options and will be fine, other babies don't and will have a big problem.

You could probably design a better way to distribute the formula than either price based, or random based, but it would require a lot more coordination, and since you need to do it for lots of goods in a crisis, some of which are needed on a daily basis, it's hard to set that up.
I’d love to hear your argument for doing anything other than opening up back to normal (not the new normal) while the elderly and at risk continue staying at home (in addition to anyone that feels more comfortable staying home).
Thinking back to my university experience - if you told me that I was going to be doing it in front of a screen, I'd have taken a gap year.

If I'd already paid and you refused to refund me, I'd use that gap year to travel to campus, administrators' homes, the lot, and let everyone know that you've stolen enormous amounts of money from hundreds of thousands.

Teenage me has a hell of a lot of energy, health, and time on their hands.

It's so ridiculous an idea as to be absurd. Do you want social breakdown? This is how you get mass riots.

Reading what's facing the US at the moment (I'm British) I honestly worry about whether there will be some sort of military standoff if the government doesn't step up _now_ and put together a coherent plan for the nation.

There are tens of millions unemployed, graduates are entering an economy that's essentially been deleted, and new students are having the knife twisted in them before they've even started.

People need _hope_. I'm angry on behalf of you guys.
No, because the admin is the "management" and it will squeeze everyone else- students, profs, staff- before itself. Hence eg schools ceasing contributions to faculty retirement plans, and no consequences for management creating a model that is so incredibly revenue sensitive.
My wife and I planned to ride the local rails-to-trail bike path today. We pulled up to the main lot and even the overflow parking was full. Tried the entry point 5 miles up trail and it was just as packed. At that point, we decided to head home.

Technically, reopening phase 1 doesn't begin until Monday here.
One major annoyance of using TEG's (from my own experience) is that they need heat to flow through the TEG rather than "heat it up".. so if you don't have a way for the heat to flow through the TEG (such as a fan or heatsink on the opposite side of the TEG -- the "cold side"), you rapidly end up with a situation where both sides of the TEG are roughly the same temperature and as a result you end up generating very little power. So if the wood stove heats up the ambient air around you, then the result is the efficiency goes down tremendously. These things are more suited for places where you have a very high temperature and a cold sink -- like the outside surface of a metal chimney in your cabin in the woods type thing -- such as outside, where you have the greatest sustainable delta T.
Beleive they were referring to AWS not k8
>thus creating a human risk that isn’t present in drones.

most unmanned drones used today have a far higher history of 'unintended forced landings' than most other military craft -- when you use planes that have a high risk of crash over metropolitan and suburban areas, the human risk multiplies.

The US military has 'lost' about 400 'large' drones between 2001 and 2014.

To put that 400 number into perspective, the US had 5 or 6 major airliner crashes between 2001-2013, and about 400 accidents (including non-crashes and minor incidents) over the period of 2004-2013.

I'd rather have any fighter jet in production right now over me than anything General Atomics had designed.

Here's an older WaPo article from 2016. From 2001-2016 400 military drone crashes occured. Military incidents are harder to find out about, otherwise I would have used that number.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/national/drone-crash...

>I feel that since drones pose less risk to the lives of their operators, the desire to use them will be greater.

absolutely true -- but don't let that make you think that loss-of-personnel is the most important metric for whether or not a mission flies.
I've dived with sharks for years now. Most of them are some of the gentlest, shiest creatures in the water. In years of these interactions, neither I nor the shark won because literally nothing happened. They just run away from you if you get too close.

Most sharks will run away from the human as the human and their bubbles look far bigger than they are. They are more intimidated by us than we are by them.
I'm glad you asked. Just two examples off the top of my head:

1. No timestamps on chat. Returning a product can require multiple chat sessions over the course of a week, where each representative swears on their mother's grave that in the next 48 hours we'll get an email and everything will be sorted out. They leave out timestamps so you can't clearly see that they've left you hanging for 15-20 minutes between each message.

2. Switching back to the recurring (vs. one-time) purchase option for some products each time you make a change to the order.

Numerous other issues, many of which are features that sellers exploit (mostly around reviews) and that Amazon isn't interested in fixing because they profit from those sales.
I'm not sure what part of my post you're responding to, but I don't expect people to protest peacefully anymore. I fully support Kapernick and think criticism of him was ignorant and wrong.

Maybe "riot response" is an ambiguous term, but I'm saying the response to the riot has to be completely legal, responding to a parent poster who was saying that it's okay for police the break the law in their response, which I strongly disagree with.
Not when the need is growing with the crisis.

To use an absurdly simplified example, imagine if access to sanitizer reduces effective reproduction number (Re) of the virus, in a way proportional to the amount of people that have this access. Every day the virus spreads, the probability of an individual getting infected grows, so the need to have the sanitizer grows as well.

When that sanitizer is most needed is at the very, very beginning - where it could halt a pandemic in its tracks. But the "maximum need" as perceived by the hoarders will occur only at the point the pandemic is about to burn itself out anyway. Which is precisely when it'll do the least good. A savvy hoarder will sell then, and make a hefty profit. A less savvy hoarder will mistime that point, sell late, and make a smaller profit.
Most likely it will do the opposite.

Losing a year of revenue will straight up kill a bunch of universities, just like it would kill most businesses. However, the following year there will still be the same number of 18 year olds who want to go to college as usual, and so surviving universities will grow much bigger.

Bigger universities will grow bigger administrative arms, which will further isolate the leadership from students and academic and enable even more extractive policies, both because increased social distance makes cruelty more thinkable, and because the loss of competition makes it harder for students and academics to find an alternative.

In other words, wiping out a bunch of businesses reduces competition, and less competitive markets are more monopolistic.

I think the JVM is more akin to Docker in that regard. K8s sits above that.
Am I the only one that is instantly turned off by seeing a big AWS product logo? My main issue is vendor lock-in, but they go on to barely mention AWS even though it's filed as an "AWS" article.

Beyond that, I was hoping for a cool getting started guide, but got an article explaining what machine learning is essentially.
What really stands out to me is that what Twitter did to Trump's tweets wasn't even nearly censorship. If anything, it was exactly in line with the concept of free speech, and a model I think could be expanded upon. But in retaliation, Trump is imposing actual censorship, and claiming that it is the necessary fix for the so-called social network censorship.

It really makes my head spin trying to work out the logic and expected beneficial result.

Maybe, but let me question that. What standardized asset bundles also do is create a market for asset bundles, which is good for the company they support. They also let new people buy a package of assets. Those aren't big issues for me, but I have never tried to make a commercial scale game in Godot.

Versioning is the nightmare of Unity. So many assets and plug ins only work with certain versions.
You might be surprised. I worked for an organisation that got ~1000 requests a year up until recently, each request involved going into every system manually, taking screenshots, tagging files etc. Quite often a good few hours per request and on a few memorable occasions, several days work for a single request. It definitely does cost many larger companies, but to varying degrees.

Not sarcastic or cynical- chaos and violence is in Trump's express interest. He and his cohort- Bannon et al- have been saying it out loud for a long time now. They are just not taken "literally or seriously."
Maybe, but did you read my post? You need a cause of action. It is not libel to moderate someone's tweets, so even if § 230 does not protect them you can't sue them for libel based on their moderation.
In my mind standardisation is how we really solve problems in much of software development. Everything before that is just practice and/or hacks.
> The police helicopter has a human element to/in it so the pilot would feel more responsibility for the destruction they caused if it were right in front of their eyes.

This comment sounds like it's about attack drones. I concede that it's not necessarily about attack drones; a surveillance drone operator might facilitate and witness a lethal attack, and in that sense "cause" the destruction.
The chance of a college kid dying from coronavirus is exceedingly small. If they aren't sick in some special way (severe diabetes, HIV), then why are we even worried? Isn't this just an easy way to let the virus pass through a huge chunk of the population while they are away from their older, more vulnerable family members?
