I saw this movie last August at a showing at the Computer History Museum and one thing really confused me. The documentary includes a dramatized 1980s interview between a fictional interviewer ("Michelle", played by Kaliswa Brewster, who I think represents a combination of the interviewers Anthony Liversidge and John Horgan who met Shannon at his home in the late 1980s) and actors portraying Claude and Betty Shannon.

I'm totally on board with this way of re-enacting or dramatizing an interview when everybody shown is an actor. But later we see an interview with Shannon's real first wife, Norma (Levor) Barzman, who went on to become a well-known Hollywood screenwriter (and Communist!), and who amazingly was something like 97 years old at the time of the interview. Eventually (around 27 minutes in to the movie) we hear the voice of the same fictional interviewer offscreen. The interviewer shares a revelation with Norma: that Claude Shannon quit his fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Study after only two months to go work for the war effort, apparently without telling her, and around the time their marriage went sour. This comes across as a big surprise to Norma (28 minutes in).

The presence of the fictional interviewer interviewing the real Norma (who also doesn't look 97, but pretty sure that's really her) confused me -- are we meant to take literally that Norma Barzman never knew that Claude Shannon had quit IAS and gone to work for the war effort until 75 years later when Kaliswa Brewster, playing a fictional character, told her in the process of filming a semi-dramatized documentary about her first husband? Norma was interviewed for the book (which also includes this information) in 2014 -- did she really not know? Was this the first take of the interview or is Norma also "acting" here...? Why use the same "interviewer" in both a fictionalized interview with other actors and a real one? Was Brewster actually there interviewing her, or is her voice just dubbed in later so the audience doesn't have to hear the real documentarian's voice? Or am I just mistaken and the offscreen voice is somebody else? It really sounds like her!

There are extensions which try to extract the recipe out of the page and display it directly.

e.g. for chrome (I don't endorse this, just an example): https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/recipe-filter/ahlc...

A problem is that sometimes the bloggers will write modifications or amendments mixed into their prose, and not reference them in the actual recipe instructions (e.g. the recipe calls for 400g of flour, but somewhere in the autobiography, the author says "The recipe calls for 400g but I find 600g to produce a much better end result")

I think, ultimately, one should not google around for recipes from random bloggers, and instead only take recipes from actual cookbooks. When you find a random person's blog, you have no idea what their skill levels are, what their motivations are for writing(usually just to make $$$ via a blog). For example, I ran across a recipe which the end product had raw flour in it, and a commenter on the site said that they should put a warning for pregnant people to not do this, and the blogger came through and said that raw flour is not only not bad for pregnant women, but is actually good for pregnant women, which goes against all known advice from healthcare professionals.
Most murders don't happen via an elaborate conspiracy; they happen for very mundane reasons.
I share your sentiment to a fair extent and I have written about it before here on HN.

Yes, for a lot of this stuff you don't need a PhD (and frankly I find that marketing weird for the above course). But you do need strong intuitions, understanding of some CS, and math "savviness" i.e. you don't have to know All The Math now, but you should be able to pick up stuff as needed, when you're trying to understand your problem and/or structuring your solution.

One could learn all of this stuff online today - the amount of good resources out there is crazy. Frankly, I am jealous, because I began working on ML more than 10 yr ago, and we were relatively starved for resources on pretty much all fronts: resources to study from (reading material or videos), affordable compute power, s/w libraries. But unfortunately, despite their abundance today, most people don't take the time to dive deep. Of all the years of me suggesting courses and books to people (when asked), only ONE (or maybe two) person managed to go through them to a fair extent. But there is a significant fraction of the rest, for which reductive messaging like "become a pro in AI in 3 weeks" has been misleading.

As a hiring manager sometimes they are as surprised as me, when an interview doesn't go well, after the resume seemed promising to both sides. And to be very clear, I don't blame them (sure, there are some pretentious opportunists, who flat out lie, but I've found them not to be the norm); all this messaging seems to have created a bubble where often you don't know what you don't know. It's amusing that thrice, rejected candidates reached out me saying that the interview was quite eye opening! I have been at the receiving end too - where 90% of the interview seemed to be about some very specific setting of a library or a method, because that was the conception of ML the interviewer had.

I think people should learn, by whatever means, and create stuff because they can - this is the best kind of learning. Silly projects are great too, if they are fun - if they don't advance your understanding, they might motivate you to be less silly! What's missing in this ecosystem is honest messaging about where your skill levels really are. I don't know how to fix it in a way that also doesn't harm, in some way, the widespread learning/awareness reg ML. On a smaller scale though, I have accepted that this has increased my scope of work in screening resumes: if someone lists her github repo, or an arxiv paper, I actually need to spend time to go through them. I don't see this as noise, but a widening of the spectrum of available ML skills in the market; and I need to put in some effort to place an applicant in this spectrum. I've accepted that this is the flipside of working in a hot area: for the multiple job opportunities accessible to me, I have to put in more thought for hiring. I can't have the luxury of the former without the responsibility of the latter. Although, being lazy, I'd totally want to ;).
In Southern California, I'm seeing prices remain about the same and just recently start to fall a bit.

A lot of people are taking property off the market right now rather than drop the price severely.

I'm sure there are exceptions, but I don't think that many people are buying houses right now. Most people are in a wait and see mode.
I'm guessing you don't live near an Indian reservation and have no idea what you're talking about. I hear the term "red man" probably a couple times a month.

I got fired two times being frumpy angry with my team mates/lead/manager and I thought I could have changed the general hypocrisy in my last job. Instead I spent three years set myself straight with someone even more frustrated than me. I wasn’t authentic but now I’ve learnt to accept myself as i am. However if I wanted to throw an object or hit something really hard in fury now I will stop for a fraction of second to think if it worth(as I’m more sensitive to my heart feeling even in a rage, where I tended to ignore in my past hypocritical self). I once destroyed the phone when I got frustrated with my ex.

Probably more like 20 years. Boston, for example, was still losing population until the late 90s. (And the last major tech employer at the time also left during the 90s.)

Demographically, you were mostly seeing college-educated young people make up the net inflow over the past 20 years. I suspect that layered over the virus effects, you probably had some demographics who were on the edge of moving anyway--which is one reason that so many of them pulled the trigger fairly quickly.

Why are you so angry about a blog post? Digesting ideas from thought leaders and re-stating them with a different angle is what blog posts are for.

I've read Christensen's work, along with other authors and came to the same conclusions that this author writes about, but I've never taken the time to put it into words like this.
I think the argument being made is that, even when they know everything about you, they still can't target you properly.

An example, I visit Amazon and my recommendations for the "buy it again" section are all very expensive networking equipment that I literally just ordered from Amazon to build out a new home network. There aren't any recommendations for consumables, like the box of exam gloves, hair gel, or the windshield wiper fluid tablets that I purchased in the last 6 months.
It’s not just software, it’s like that for every industry. There are some, usually large, group of people whether in sales/marketing/operations/etc who aren’t particularly interested in the industry of their business but prefer to focus on the details of their task.

It’s not wrong or bad at all, but it does tend to be compensated less.
Tyrese Haspil is most likely a psychopath. Psychopaths are usually attracted to empathetic (nice,loving and giving) people. They see all people as a means to their goals. Psychopaths fake emotions but have none, only goals. There are a lot of hi I.Q. psychopaths in big business so all beware of who you trust. Not all of them are murderous, just a tiny minority, but all of them are manipulative and backstabbing, they can't help it.
Two possibilities come to mind. The red channel in each pixel might be at the left, causing all the pure red text to be slightly shifted relative to the other text.

Another might be chromatic aberration if you wear glasses. (This causes the Windows logo to look comically maligned for me.) Whether it's behind or in front of the text would depend on the tilt of your head.

I live in a rural area on 3 acres, 1 hour north of SF. Last year, a couple, mid 30s, from the city, bought a house on our street to live out the "Country Dream". Their new country house was back on the market within 12 months. Many people who have never lived in a rural setting don't realize the work load that comes along with country living. Wells, septic systems, tree work and mowing, maintaining defensible space for wildfires, even the work prepping a garden... it takes a lot more time and sweat than many realize.
Sure, Article 6, section 1c (https://gdpr-info.eu/art-6-gdpr/); processing is lawful if "processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject"

I think (like the GP) you're oversimplifying though.

Have you ever had to determine what is considered a "legal obligation"? It's not fun. Much to the distaste of us engineers, it turns out that most laws are not written in an unambiguous fashion; many (like HIPAA) are very vague in places, and rely on precedent or tribal knowledge about how the regulator in question tends to interpret things.

So yes, if you have a clear, unambiguous requirement to keep Personal Data, then you don't need to lawyer up. If you work in an industry with complex regulations, then you're going to need lawyers and/or consultants to tell you how to resolve the conflict between GDPR and those regulations.

One time when I lived in Hawaii, I had snuck into an apartment’s hot tub with a girl. When leaving, I saw this massive tree of a Hawaiian man, and I’m 6’3”, so this guy was huge. This man was screaming and hitting his wife, who was trying to run away. I yelled out to distract him so she could get away. Before I could even comprehend it, he had run across the street and was right in front of me. I was a very well trained martial artist at the time and I was scared for my life, this guy was clearly high or crazy. I jumped on a ledge where he couldn’t reach me, and he ran off after the wife. I pounded on people’s doors until the cops came and saw them try to talk him down. Three cops tased him before he went down, but then he pulled them out, stood up, and punched the window out of a nearby jeep. He was eventually subdued.
A cop later told me that this was fairly common in that area, because of PCP use.
I’m amazed this guy came out of it alive because of how easily he shrugged off tasers.
I agree it is poorly presented, which is why having others read and critique something is always helpful. That said, I don't believe it rises to the level of 'atrociously bad' :-).

The authors will come by and read this and dismiss it out of hand when you have a chance to help them get better at what they do (they recognize that failing to do something, in this case present their case clearly, can teach new skills)

So let's be a bit more proactive in the feedback okay?

The post bounces between background/foundation material and new material too rapidly. It can be over expository in background which may prevent the reader from connecting what background material/situation is being addressed by the new material. It fails to present a cogent summary of its thesis statement in the first paragraph, that comes in paragraph 3. Paragraphs 1 & 2 are nominally a problem statement in what reads as an obtuse jargon.

Now some of that is that the entire article feels like it is written for someone who has read all of their other articles and so there are many unexplained phrases which clearly have specific meanings. Statements like "I promise you, in its entirety, the following is something you’ve never heard before, and the ramifications of ignoring the advice herein most assuredly leads to unhappy software engineers." exhibit a certain hubris that can be off putting to engineers and that isn't a great place to start.
Because, if a tool like this required the user to deploy a GUI client library to a server, nobody would ever even consider it.
With Android, I believe you could always run anything you wanted in the background, provided you had enough memory. Starting with versions 5-6, restrictions have been put in to prevent abuses and battery draining with the user unaware of it. The two OSs converged towards a mean point from opposite directions in this case.
I've deleted it for you. Please don't miss that the issue wasn't just that one comment, though. It's the pattern with your account, unfortunately.

I realize that as social and political conditions become more polarized, it gets harder to practice the intended spirit of the site, but if HN is to survive, we all have to pitch in. That's one reason the guidelines say "Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive." "More divisive" is the trend of the world these days, and there's no way HN can expect to be immune from that.
I’m going to stick with the >99% figure. I think it is uncommon, rare even. Other than chat systems with custom emoji rendered as an img, I honestly can’t think when I last saw a site with inline <img> tags. (I’d guess it to be within the last month, maybe even the last week, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it wasn’t.) Twenty years ago, sure, but they’ve gone out of fashion stylistically as well as technically. Technically, I suspect background-image and icon fonts are both used more commonly for small iconography.
I have a friend who has an analogous “goldfish philosophy” for giving grumpy people the benefit of the doubt: when someone acts like a jerk he says “maybe their goldfish died this morning” and then forgets the incident as fast a goldfish would. You never know who’s having a bad day and he genuinely doesn’t take it personally. Of course sometimes he jokes that a person is a “goldfish serial killer” which means they’re a confirmed jerk.
Or just straight up ignore it completely like the president has done with some laws. Sometimes the courts catch up to him, sometimes the senate doesn't give a shit

Hey, we've got the first part in common. Why can't I afford a house.

(this is a sarcastic, er, ill-tempered, remark on correlation vs causation)
Sure. I didn't mean to draw a hard line.

The monarchic period, even David and Solomon, reads a lot more political writing. The region enters into a historical period. The biblical stories start to relate more definitely to known historical events.

David and Solomon are kind of transitional, it's really just gradual. It gets more mythical as you go back.

Immediately following from the solomon period, the bible is referencing known assyrian emperors, pharaohs, and reporting on conquests that are historically known. There are dates.

By the end of the kingdom period, it's already the babylonian era... At that point it's basically modernity.
I would feel deeply insulted if someone compared me to a dog because of complacency, but to each their own. Whatever works for you, though I can't say I understand.

I will say I find less grumpy people easier to work with and I try to be pleasant to everyone I work with as a result; it's just the dog messaging I find confusing.

Interesting, I have a very small team that maintains a lot of infrastructure including Prometheus. Setting up the monitoring for 5 datacenters, thousands of hosts and hundreds of services was maybe a ~2 weeks effort. We then organically add and remove things but it is maybe a ~4h/week effort.

It give us a lot of value. We were using other solutions before (sensu/nagios) and it is night and day.

All the plugins that we use are listed in the official Prometheus website: https://prometheus.io/docs/instrumenting/exporters/ we haven't looked outside this page.

The cloud does make a difference. Just seeing the daily S3 usage per bucket was life changing. Immediately found that backups were not expiring after a while as they should, costing more and more money. ^^

Yeah this kind of visibility is really lacking on-prems. Storage is something that is hard, at scale, to see what is using what.

--

Do you know how many metrics you are ingesting in prometheus? storage size? and how many tags per host? We were reaching 1 TB of memory usage (mmap) on our server with 1500 hosts. Prometheus was literally grinding to a halt or crashing, was forced to cut down some metrics and stick to the absolute minimum tags.

We have around 500 GB of disk dedicated to prometheus server datacenter with a retention policy of 1 month. The VMs have around 16 GB of RAM.

I would say 95% of the hosts only have node exporter. Then 5% of the hosts will have redis/elasticsearch/postgres/mysql/etc exporters.

Also probably around 5% of the hosts have some sort of custom metrics. We have been leveraging the file exporter for writing custom service metrics.

Custom service metrics goes through a merge request process where we see the best way to structure them to avoid big cardinality. We also use recorded rules to pre-compute things that would be expensive to query (think CPU usage across a datacenter)

1 TB of RAM usage sounds insane. It looks like we can horizontally scale the prometheus servers and use some documented features for that.

For our use case it has been a very smooth ride so far!
I've been doing differential fuzzing of many major cryptographic libraries. It currently tests symmetric crypto, some elliptic curve crypto, bignum arithmetic, message digests and MACs, KDFs, but not TLS, X509, ASN1 etc (yet). The list of bugs it has found so far can be viewed here [1].

The bug count per library can not be used as an absolute metric and not all bugs are security vulnerabilities (though many can be under specific circumstances).

BoringSSL has fewer bugs than LibreSSL, which has fewer bugs than OpenSSL. One of the reasons for this could be that the bug count is proportional to the complexity/SLOC: BoringSSL is smaller in terms of functionality (# of message digests, ciphers, ...) than LibreSSL, which is smaller than OpenSSL. OpenSSL sometimes commits new buggy code whereas BoringSSL does not, but OpenSSL has a higher commit frequency than BoringSSL, and BoringSSL might be aiming for a production-safe master branch where OpenSSL might not.

So it's not easy to derive a reliable metric from this, but with that said, you can't really go wrong with BoringSSL if it offers what you need.

Thanks, looks like there was something wrong with the data I had.
The SEO implications definitely have a massive influence on it, but it's also a consequence of copyright law. A recipe in and of itself isn't copyrightable, but recipes fluffed up with a bunch of prose may qualify as a literary work and the recipe itself gains copyright protection as a component of that literary work[1].

I’m building a house with toll brothers in the mountain west right now. As others note - this manifests in individual lots having construction started on them. I can absolutely tell you that they are seeing a influx of engineers from California right now. ThT combined with very limited inventory is resulting in significant price increases (and a removal of incentives) here.
I don’t really like the idea that Need, Belief, Opportunity, and Anticipation are the drivers of engineering as opposed to money and personal growth. I’m not surprised though because these guys appear to be Scrum Consultants who want to tell software orgs they can improve productivity by paying them for “training” rather than paying employees more for work.

Ultimately what I want as a software engineer employee is my own personal success. I actually identify a lot more with their “Business Management” step: I want incentives to be aligned and I will be motivated to do great work if I feel like I can share in that success. Yes it’s easier to get up in the morning if I’m working on something that’s overall successful, but that would be negated if I couldn’t get a piece of that.

This seems to fit into the more common trope that engineers are easily fooled into working for less pay than they should be getting through bullshit like “vision”. Even if I’m working on something cool I’m not going to be happy to just make someone else rich. If I only cared about solving a problem I would just write OSS.
