I think Gravwell (https://gravwell.io) might be what you're looking for--but I work for Gravwell so I may be biased! If I can be forgiven a short sales pitch, we've built a format-agnostic storage & querying system that easily handles raw packets, Netflow records (v5, v9, and IPFIX), collectd data, Windows event logs, and more. You can see some screenshots at https://www.gravwell.io/technology

We have a free tier which allows 2GB of data ingest per day (paid licenses are unlimited) which should be more than enough for capturing logs and flows. The resources needed to run Gravwell basically scale with how much data you put into it, but it's a lot quicker to install and set up than something like Elastic, in our opinion (https://www.gravwell.io/blog/gravwell-installed-in-2-minutes)

Edit: it's currently a bit roll-your-own, but we're really close to releasing Gravwell 4.0 which enables pre-packaged "kits" containing dashboards, queries, etc. for a variety of data types (Netflow, CoreDNS logs, and so on)
Shaan Puri has a podcast called My First Million and he talks about a concept really similar to this. He's active on Twitter. You may try to get him to look at it.

There's nothing wrong with ternary operators in my opinion - maybe it's just a subjective thing.

Most interesting thing in React for me is the ability to pass an element as an argument to another component - it's impossible in Angular. I’m not sure there is a lot of real-life cases for this feature, but still, I’m impressed by this level of flexibility.

React isn't just V of MVC, it's VC at least, letting you write your models wherever you want (pure js functions? classes - go ahead).

Some advantages of React are the weak points simultaneously - ngModel, ngIf, ngFor - they are removing a lot of boilerplate you have to write in React.
Did anyone actually read the article? The aluminum foam material has to be thick and the ceramic beads are large.

Also, even if you just looked at the angle grinder video, you can see the claims aren’t really as presented. It’s very cutable, it just happens to eventually dull the cutter eventually. That’s what, a 2” billet they have there?

For their demo on a similar thickness steel plate, I think that most people would have an extremely hard time getting that far in 17-4PH steel let alone SS6xx like Inconel or any one of 100 different steels.

Mostly you would stop from boredom even in a world where the grinder wasn’t similarly full or broken by the time you gave up.
Ah, released February 2020. I missed that. Cool.

The last word on the matter from PC Engines was here, http://www.pcengines.info/forums/?page=post&id=7D919FB8-C4BB..., where it seemed even 12W might be too much, given the power draw of the other components.
I honestly think the comment you answered to is meant to be a joke ...

I think decks are DIY magnets, so people may be expending more effort than sense -

Decks tie into the house in a single place, and you can build as much of a foundation as you'd like.

They require no special tools, and the wind ties effectively work as jigs that guide you through joining wood.

You can demo and build a new one, without impinging on your living situation. All of the work is outside. If it falls apart, there is no pressing need to replace it.

A lot of companies also have special deals with preferred airlines, which gets the company a refund if a certain volume of money is spent. So you would see worse pricing upfront, but the company would spend a lot less after the discount numbers were reached.
Perhaps even more importantly, they are a big bottleneck on their flight rate. They require a massive autoclave (for curing the composites), and it wouldn't be practical to scale up their production significantly.

Even if it didn't save them a penny, my guess is it would still be a priority.

The whole point of section 230 of the CDA was to say that they can.

Before 230, there had been court rulings that said if a platform moderated user supplied content they were liable for that content. Section 230 was written to reverse those rulings.

I'm not sure why, but a myth has taken hold that under 230 you have to be neutral to get the liability shield.
> I think anonbcpolitics was ignoring DMs.

Yes, because there's no evidence of anyone using DMs to govern.

We don't know if a politician uses Signal, Twitter/IG DM, or other 1:1 communication apps, we have to handle those cases when we catch them, like Hillary was caught with her private email server. If she was actually punished it may have deterred people from circumventing FOIA.

I would be directly opposed to such communication the same way I'm opposed to a private email server being used. Communicating in public tweets is entirely different though.
I agree with you on UQ. For example, I have seen a couple of talks in my field of neutron scattering, where people are using denoising autoencooders to remove artifacts and fit data. It's also clear that no one has any idea how this effects the uncertainties on parameters for models that are fit on the denoised data, much less what happens if the models are not appropriate for the data.

I think reproducibility can be tackled--at least some journals (shameless plug--I'm a lowly associate editor on science advance) are strongly encouraging people include data/code with publications. I have reviewed papers in Nature Comput. Materials where people have included data/jupyter notebooks (not perfect, but a very good start). It would be great if funding agencies started adding more teeth to requirements on data sharing. However, many more groups are putting their code on Github.

Indeed, it is several papers. There are two journals in my field - one I can't read because it's behind a paywall and one that's expensive to publish in. I choose the latter, but couldn't afford multiple months of rent in order to publish several papers. :(

A blog post I wrote years ago use to part of the "implement popcnt" literature - http://www.dalkescientific.com/writings/diary/archive/2008/0... . It's now outdated, and actual low-level programmers have done better, but it still gets mentioned in-passing in postings like the one referenced on HN last year at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20914479 .
Very cool article. The Hiller Air & Space museum mentioned in the piece is well worth visiting if one happens to be in the Bay Area.
To all of the people who feel similarly, and have problems ruminating:

Try thinking in terms of probabilities - that's the real way out, to recognize that all of the negative scenarios you keep replaying in your head are very unlikely to happen at all.

Once you realize that much it might get easier to brush these thoughts aside sooner.

I use PHP in my day job. It is by far the worst language I've ever used. Nothing else even comes close. The language and ecosystem are so full of footguns that you are bound to shoot yourself eventually. The OpenSSL implementation will silently truncate the key [1][2] without even giving a warning. The cURL lib, in 2020, still hasn't implemented a get_curl_opt function. Sure you could wrap it if you're writing everything, but the reality is I have to work in this nightmare ecosystem that just uses raw curl. Every == comparison is still a potential security hole due to PHP's insane (and inconsistent) typecasting behaviors. Sometimes a number gets cast to a string, but a string gets cast to a number if you use it as an array key. WTF? Do I have to wait another 15 years for PHP to become a halfway decent language?

"These cause it to become even harder the faster you grind or drill "due to interatomic forces between the ceramic grains," and "the force and energy of the disc or the drill is turned back on itself, and it is weakened and destroyed by its own attack."

AMD's video encoding HW is comparatively poor in performance/quality. I.e., if you're bandwidth-constrained (wireless or internet uplink from home), you're likely better off with x264 or maybe SVT-AV1 on a CPU instead.

Nvidia's H.265 encoder in Turing (the 2000-series of GPUs, many RTX branded) delivers superb quality for >=1080p30 real-time encoding compared to the alternatives (x264, QuickSync, AMD GPU) (x265 isn't really suitable for realtime-encoding).

The only reason I haven't yet planned a concrete AMD workstation is the lack of proper rr[0] support[1] in their CPUs, and for the GPU the rather poor hardware encoding[2] that makes it infeasible to seriously stream out 2160p60 without problematic visual artifacts.

"But in my experience, the airline backend and pricing is usually outsourced to Sabre or Amadeus"

True, but that doesn't make the reservations visible in the GDS. If Sabre or Amadeus is running your "CRS (Central Res System)", they aren't allowed to do anything with the data that you haven't asked them to.
This is a common misunderstanding that is often repeated despite being wrong. This is the exact opposite of Section 230, which says that you can have it both ways: You can moderate some but not all stuff without getting in trouble.
Images and matrices are 2D data structures of numbers, but that is where the similarities end. An image is more like a vector, which matrices can be applied to. You would never matrix multiply an image onto another vector. Still, it isn’t uncommon to visualize matrices as images.
Really cool! What problem are you working on? I live on the experimental side. At least in condensed matter, there are people having fun on the theory side as well.

Why does everyone keep repeating the "pay for a Qt license" meme every time that someone presents a Qt software? You do not need to pay for a Qt license, it is under lgpl, just like a lot of other libraries that you can use in both foss and non-foss applications. Even GTK which some replies suggested uses the LGPL! Same goes for glibc which you link all of your programs to.

No I mean we are 6 months into this pandemic. I can understand people making this mistake in Feb or March. But by now there is no excuse. There is a lot of FUD being pushed by people on HN. In your case it may be an honest mistake but I am getting tired of people quoting numbers that are alarmist and just false.
How many of them even realize that their worldview is potentially being shaped by the moderation teams of the tech they consume? And what alternatives exist to the major platforms (Facebook, reddit, etc)?

They're effectively a captive audience.
Would be nice to know what the actual claims are. I'm not at all a climate change denialist, but some of the things claimed by people trying to raise awareness for climate change are outright false, or at least extremely unlikely, e.g. humans almost certainly aren't going to go extinct because of climate change. But it can still be catastrophic at a society level.

It's a shame the issue is so polarized, because while the claims that the earth is warming and that the warming is at least in part caused by c02 and other forms of pollution are solid, some of the assumptions going into the models are questionable and can be legitimately debated.
I think it is a great start - the frontend seems a bit heavy for what it is, looks like a lot of thought went into the backend.

Yes, can't believe _every_ Ленинград lyric! In seriousness, we wanted to go with some reinforced alloys at first (magnesium ones from Kazan), but due to various constraints went with steelies instead. Main reason - they don't shatter. By the end of the rally, we could lift the car, take off a ruined wheel, hammer it back into shape, re-inflate the tire and re-install the wheel in 5 minutes or so. Alloys have a tendency of shattering instead.
A tangential issue is the limitation of Congressional seats to 435 (since 1911), which affects the number of electors each state gets and distorts the value of each elector and representative in terms of how many people each represents.
Best advice I've ever been given: Wait to worry. If you can't do something (anything) about it immediately, don't worry about it.

Using your example, you haven't decided to restructure your roof, so there is nothing actionable you can do right now WRT your neighbor, so don't worry about that.
This is true, and has certainly been painful for us and puts more work on those of us who are still working on community and devrel, but we're still doing it.
(Not affiliated with TimescaleDB, just trying to understand your critique)

TimescaleDB is a Postgres extension, which means they have to play PG's rules, which rather implies a complicated mesh of functions, views, and "internal-use-only" tables.

But once they're there, you can pretty much pretend they don't exist (until they break, of course, but this is true for everything in your software stack).

Is your complaint targeting the size of these scripts, or their contents? Because everything in there appears pretty reasonable to me.
