> so that you get pushed to the surface with zero effort

This is not always true.

Your buoyancy decreases as you go deeper (and have more water above you, causing more downward pressure).

At a depth of 30 meters (100 feet), the pressure is 4 atmospheres, 4 times that of sea level.

Furthermore, not everyone is positively buoyant. The less fat one has, especially if not wearing diving suit, the more likely staying afloat/level to become harder.

As the depth increases, lungs and all bodily cavities shrink, further adding to one's density.

So, at 30 meters, it is actually quite a struggle to swim back up, even more so if you've lost your fins.

As for weights, I used to work out and exercise daily. During that time, I also dived few times a week spanning various sea conditions throughout the year and never have once taken weights as I was already negative.

Fast forward 2 years to today, I put on 15kg (33 lbs) and I need 10kg weight to enjoy my dive. But on the upside, I'd probably skyrocket to the surface if needed, lol :D
I’d like to hear more on Rpi support. I remember the Pi being shunned in Haiku forums as being a “niche”, and having a dozen or so of them about the house I would _really_ like to know how the ARM port is going.

Maybe they can use their resources to something useful now instead of a 30 yr old murder which may even been exceeding the prosecution time limit, depending on the motive. Also everyone has known for the past 20 yrs that nobody is gonna get convicted for it.
Or even better some small lisp.
I wonder if they didn't in passing mention (in the press conference) the reason why the case is concluding now: In 2016, most of the old team went into retirement and they recruited some new members.

FWIW, as of this writing, the press conference is still ongoing, started 1 hour and 30 mins ago.
I think you meant "6 hours... counting the short breaks." In any case, I think six hours is a good number.

So, you have to put in eight hours of actual work? A usual workday is eight hours, but I'd say most employees probably do less than four hours of actual work every day.

Are you a freelancer or an employee, if you don't mind my asking?

Couple more things to remember:

- don't use swap

- make sure you have noatime on all your filesystems

- identify other folders with frequently changing data (/tmp, $HOME/tmp, etc.) and also make sure you keep them in memory

- you can use NFS for many of these things if that is possible
I don't see any dodgy moneymaking schemes for any of them. Care to elaborate?
Watching the extended press conference now. No technical evidence points to the identified man but as I understand very little technical evidence exists. Lots of weird circumstances around this guy but overall this seems pretty weak. The guy has promoted himself as a key whitness since the morning after the murder, cunning strategy if he really did it. But he comes across as a bit of a dunce in the interviews.

Edit: still watching. They just said that what they have now wouldn't hold water in a court

> sysdig is useless without installing nontrivial performance-impacting instrumentation

Most reasonable people reading this sentence would come away with the conclusion that strace is fast, whereas sysdig has some inherent overheads. In reality it is strace that has performance and other problems which make it completely unsuitable for production use (strace will slow syscall heavy code down by a factor of over 100; sysdig won't). Sysdig, on the other than can definitely be used in production and I always found the performance overhead minor. Can you point to something showing otherwise? BTW, newer versions of sysdig do not require a kernel module, thanks to eBPF (but I have not used this).

> , cannot handle non-IP networking,

What is an example of a networking related query you can do with strace but not with sysdig?

> does not fully report all syscalls

Can you expand? Are you referring to the fact that sysdig will drop traces if the userland client cannot keep up (which is a feature and not a bug, and something that all production grade tracing tools do)?

> , has a license with patent crap in it,

As far as I'm aware sysdig's core is Apache licensed and the user scripts are MIT and GPL licensed. Apache has a patent grant, which seems better than not having one. What is your specific beef?

> has gated features behind a paywall,

What features that strace offers are behind a paywall in sysdig? What's wrong with a company that provides a tool that massively advanced the (linux, pre-eBPF) state of the art as open source for free to all also provide some paid offerings on top?

> and cannot inject syscall faults.

This is indeed a useful recent-ish feature I did not know about so thank you! But there are other ways to do it, and something that's orthogonal to the core tracing functionality.

> It's not even in the same class of tool as strace at this point.

Indeed -- the only reason to use strace at this point is because you already know it and it is likely available. This may change if strace switches away from ptrace, but for now it is a joke. If you want something that just does strace, but much better (minimal overhead, powerful and intuitive query language with CLI autocompletion) use sysdig. If you want to use the most general and powerful tool that can tell you lots of other stuff besides syscall usage (but has a much worse UX) look at eBPF and perf. If you want to be a serious performance engineer or similar you will have to learn it, but I suspect for most people sysdig has the best ROI. Perf and dtrace are both (far) more versatile but, IMO, (far) less pleasant to use.

Color me unconvinced. Two shots, Palme was dead before hitting the ground. Murderer escaped through outdoor stairway and he/she or the gun was never seen again.

Doesn’t sound like an incident by random Swede who decided to bring his .357 along to an evening stroll in downtown. Just like Oswald said - I’m just a patsy.

Pineapplefund.me
It's been over 2 years since my mission and the end of the charity project pineapplefund.org, where I donated most of my Bitcoin.

I have never chased wealth or fame, so all my donations have been anonymous.

Life is a series of events, sometimes mystical.

Briefly about my situation, now my family and I are in quite a difficult situation! I lost access to a laptop with a lot of information that was part of my life, as well as access to a cold wallet with more than 2000 bitcoins! These were my last savings at Bitcoin.

It just so happens that now I have to start my whole life again, and I have a long and hard way to go.
I really hope that I can get access to my cold wallet.

I need about 25 BTC to solve my problems and develop further, it's only almost 0.05% of the amount I donated from the Pineapple Fund.

I never thought that I would ever have to ask for help because I had a fortune, but there are different situations in life, and today I want to ask everyone who cares about my activities and everyone who has received help from me.
Friends, I have been kind to you and I really hope that you will answer me the same and help me in my difficult situation. I believe in the boomerang effect.
Do not remain indifferent!

I believe in miracles and kindness, because lately I have been helping to believe in miracles and to do good for many people around the world!

I tend to disagree. It will depend on the network and the storage but it is not uncommon for network storage to actually be faster than local flash card.

At home I have couple of older laptops my kids use for various things. I have installed linux on them and configured to boot over wifi and it actually sped up these machines significantly. I would not advise for everybody to do this, though. The setup is complex (there is no built in support in any distro and you are pretty much on your own) and you need excellent wifi coverage (I have no less than 5 5GHz access points to cover the area densely).

One thing flash card will be difficult to beat is random small accesses if the only thing you care about is latency and not throughput.
It does not seem morally right to "convict" (in the media) this man posthumously, based on no technical evidence. They are trying to put forward a story as canon, and while that is good for the many (the police, and for Sweden in general), the integrity of the judicial process and this man's right to due process is sacrificed.

Thanks! On top of the size benefits, I love that I can finally use languages other than JavaScript on the frontend. I couldn't have done it in JS because I'd have to write a BloomFilter implementation in it (which I would not be capable of) or bundle an existing library, which would have increased code-size (hence, defeating the point of the project).

Show HN: Fix Parser Written in TypeScript
You are correct. 6 hours including the breaks.

I am an employee at a large distribution company for IT hard and software. I think there are many factors that play into how long a productive day really is:

Type of work - is your job requiring brainwork all the time or maybe you have some work in-between that just requires execution prime to thinking work?

Environment - how good are you shielded from distractions?

Communication - do you really need to be shielded? Maybe you need a steady communication to proceed with your work. I'm thinking about the guys at stock market e.g.

Type of breaks - This is a big one and up to personal preference to a degree. Are you forced to take a break? Is it a hard force or a soft force (telephone vs. mail).
Do you have to respond immediately? A big problem for me e.g. is interruptions when i'm in the middle of it. It takes a fair amount of time to get back into the zone.

If this happens i often like to refer to this article: http://blog.ninlabs.com/2013/01/programmer-interrupted/
It's hard for people to understand why interruptions can be very harmful for work.

So if i say 6 hours, this is the maximum for me to work concentrated on one topic. Interruptions diminish this number, shorten my concentration timespan and often make the day not as productive (subjectively).

That’s not laughable in the slightest to anyone who knows history of machining. There are fewer and fewer machine shops, and at the same time the machining centers are becoming more and more sophisticated. Sure, operating CNC mills requires significant expertise, but so did manual machining. We used to have hundreds of thousands of machinists in this country, making various parts for cars, household appliances etc. Now it’s all factory made. Just because some existing process requires expertise, doesn’t mean that we cannot come up with a new process that will not need that skilled operator as a step.

A weekend project idea for geeks like me who like films, but have the feeling to have already watched everything. I find that imdb ratings have a high (but not 1.0) correlation with me liking the movie (provided I like the genre). You can still download from imdb flat files that contain all movies, ratings, as well as cast/directors/producers/writers. Stick that in a database, with a basic UI to hide movies you have already watched. And you can make a good personal recommandation engine for movies you didn’t suspect exist. The power of this approach is that imdb is pretty much an exhaustive catalog.

> why does evolution prefer the "selects" terminology? Is that common in any other sciences?

I think this is due to set theory and statistics. Terminology such as "select x such that" is standard. In fact a choice function is commonly referred to as a selector. Since evolution is essentially a biased random walk, you can describe it as a stochastic choice function (plus some other stuff) applied to the set of entities that makes up a population.

(If "selects" bothers you, what do you make of quantum mechanical "observers"? I witnessed that one cause lots of misconceptions among university and even a few graduate students.)
