>A set of smaller reactors that were not co-located would be more tolerant of site-specific vulnerabilities in their design

That depends on what risks you are trying to mitigate. IF you are talking about site specific natural disasters and freak occurrences damaging a site. Then spreading them out increases risk of failure.

If you are worried about power loss after a site destroys a site, then colocation is worse. Of the two, damage to a site is the more pressing concern.

The lack of a built-in profiler was a big one for me (though this may have improved recently). I do like using external tools like Intel VTune or Morgan Stanley's XPedite but they're not great for the "quick profiling" you might do to test out various implementations of a function or component.

Maybe that's been added since I used it 1.5 years or so ago though.
That’s a very cynical way to interpret what I said. I was responding to Corbyn being defined as weak and of the PR mess that was exasperated by saboteurs, not providing a solution to the real problem of antisemitism.

> Another note: most of us are "mediocre" and many of those who think they are somehow great, often turn out to be just "mediocre" themselves when put into a certain situation.

Yeah I fully agree - there is nothing bad about that at all. But that does not change what I'm trying to say: once you grow more skills have more experience (which happens to most people), go starts to limit you a lot more than other languages. No "genius" needed. And it's not only me thinking that if you look at the other responses here.

So, hype go as an easy language to learn? Fine by me!

Hype it as a language that is more productive than others? I have to disagree.

Inc-Query | Operations (not-dev) | Full-time | REMOTE (US West Coast/APAC) | https://inc-query.com

Small, profitable, rapidly growing, fully remote tech company. We program surveys insanely fast for private equity and management consulting clients.

If you enjoy dealing with very smart clients in a somewhat technical and fast-paced environment, this role may be for you. The Survey Director exercises 3 different skill sets:

1. Client management/communication skills: Interact with clients all the time

2. Business acumen: Learn about different industries/niches and transfer learning across projects

3. Technical skills: Never-ending supply of short coding puzzles (think <10 lines)

This is not a software engineering role, but some coding familiarity is required. It's a tough role, but super interesting work!

If you're interested in learning more, shoot me (the founder) a note with either your resume and/or LinkedIn: hn@inc-query.com. You'd be joining a bunch of other HNers who work here.

For APAC candidates: You'd be the 2nd hire in the region! We're looking for UTC+7 and points east (E/SE Asia, Oceania, Aus/NZ).

I do agree with you that Electron is an amazing platform and definitely has a lot of cool, solid use cases, but that doesn't mean that every single app we use _should_ be written in Electron. Recently, it feels like every app uses Electron. Even the ones that shouldn't.

Video Conferencing is one of those apps that in my opinion should definitely be native for two important reasons:
1. Performance: Video conferencing needs great performance. As a user, you want the best video possible at the best FPS possible. Mostly Electron/JS video conferncing apps are not bad (Facebook Messenger, Google Meet) because Chrommium just provides a JS wrapper for native APIs implemented in C++. But, if you want to do anything outside of that you're screwed. You will eventually run into the limitation of what Chromium gives you and this gives you an upper limit to what you can do to optimize this.
2. Memory Usage: Video conferencing is usually used alongside other apps (while sharing your screen for example). For that reason, you want to minimize memory usage as much as possible to make it easier for the user to have the app open while using as many apps as they can. Electron uses a lot of memory.

A third reason is that the human interaction guidelines provided by Apple for their UIs (and embedded into their APIs) is very, very good. It keeps the user experience consistent across your platform and makes your app easier to understand. And this is coming from someone who is not really an Apple fanboy. What you see with Electron apps is a steeper learning curve for having to learn how to use every new app you install.

I'm kind of surprised newer programs haven't come out since Optar (which is pretty old) that could store even more data on a page.

There must be research in the compression, optical recognition, or error correction fields that could improve on Optar's efficiency and/or reliability.

Optar itself is pretty bare-bones from a feature perspective, unpolished, and hasn't been maintained in ages. It has no official GitHub repo (or any other kind of source code repo) that I could find. The released tarball doesn't even have a version number. It only works with the obscure PGM image format (for which you need ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick to convert to/from) instead of something common like PNG.

It does actually work (or did when I tried it a decade or more ago), so by that measure it could be considered good enough, but it's sad that there's been no more modern open source alternative in the many years since it's been released.
I mean, I have all that. i3-gaps, alacritty, conky for transparency, etc. But for a big C++ codebase you just end up being way more productive in something like CLion. The static analysis is way way way more in-depth than something like vim can provide even with plugins.

Talk to your manager. If you got placed through an agency there’s probably a buy-out clause, meaning the company would have to pay the agency to hire you f/t. That’s standard, usually covers the first year but could have a different duration. Normally it’s about the same as a recruiter fee so not a deal-breaker.

Amazon's Alexa for Landlords Is a Privacy Nightmare Waiting to Happen
An old Thinkpad
For the unfamiliar, 'Eulerian' and 'Lagrangian' are basically just names for two different frames of reference.

Eulerian sampling is like dotting the countryside with weather stations. Your measurement data shows the weather at each of those fixed points over time and from that you can understand what was happening.

Lagrangian sampling is like sending up weather balloons. Your measurement data shows the weather around the balloons as they float along with the wind. That will give you all the same information, but from a different perspective.

The Eulerian perspective for weather makes it easier to understand what's happening at a specific location, but harder to understand what's happening to a specific particle of air. The Lagrangian perspective is the opposite.

There is an explanation of this in the paper, but IMO, it's a little more difficult to follow than the classic weather analogy. Just wanted to demystify the name a bit.
I think competition is completely overrated, there's actual research that digital customers are even stickier than physical ones and less likely to shop for alternatives (just ask your aunt how often she goes shopping for web browsers).

Android actually allows different stores without too much hassle and everyone is still on Google Play.

The problem with competition is that competition requires choice and choice comes with cost, and people don't like having to make decisions every five minutes, that's the secret sauce behind TikTok's success, it abstracted all the nasty choice away you have to make in social networks, or why twitter beats Mastodon.

Point being you're ending up with Amazon/Walmart/Megacorp XY anyway because that's just how advanced economies roll, they tend towards more concentration, I absolutely won't be surprised if the retail sector is going to consolidate next and small retail just gets wiped out by tech, covid has given us a taste of that already.

It's either regulated behemoths or unregulated ones, the 90s internet isn't coming back.

It is not quite that simple. Money does eventually get removed from the system when loans are canceled without being fully repaid. When people die with an estate that is too small to repay their debts that is exactly what happens; it also often happens when businesses go bankrupt, which would likely happen when the population shrinks. Obviously this is a bit oversimplified, but the point is that the money supply is not static thing where money is "printed" by some central authority and then stays in circulation forever.

Non-COVID is one thing, but even among those with COVID, we may have a biased sample here. Suppose that 97% of the COVID athletes didn't have chest pain or other symptoms of myocarditis and thus had no reason to get an MRI, and that the remaining 3% is broken down into "2% got an MRI and didn't have myocarditis, 1% got an MRI and did have myocarditis"; that would match the reported 1/3 rate of myocarditis among those who got MRI'd, but it would be only 1% among those with COVID.

We've seen this type of sampling bias before, where people having a problem makes them more likely to choose to get tested for it, which leads to an unrealistically high "x% of people have this problem" estimate.
If Geoff Hinton or Francois Chollet add emojis to their writing, it is visually less pleasing in my opinion but I agree with you overall. When it's someone I don't know though, it makes me trust the writing less because I can't strictly verify the contents of what is being discussed easily for work like this, so it does make a difference because I guess it's less "professional" in a way.

That's reasonable.

I haven't taken a look at the boundaries of your functionality. If you allow custom keywords, scripting, etc., though, I'd probably run up against the sandbox extending it, even if you didn't with core functionality.

At any rate, I will check it out from Setapp, and I'm glad to hear you're still supporting that since I'd use it from there. I don't mean to be a jerk in my response, and I do wish you the best.

Lacona just happen to resemble exactly the kind of app to which I apply these sorts of criteria and I think the rest of the Keyboard Maestro/Alfred/Hazel/personal automation crowd on Mac is similar. It's a niche crowd, and I think one aspect of the niche is less sandbox is better. Another is that we want to know your tool will outlast your business if necessary, before we build our tools on top of it, so we purchase anything useful outright if possible.

Then again, maybe you end up being the mainstream Spotlight replacement, especially when the switch to ARM throws everyone else's privileges up in the air. Good luck!

We have at least one customer who's using both wandb and Pachyderm together. I actually don't think they overlap that much, although I may be misunderstanding that wandb does. Pachyderm doesn't do anything to track models explicitly. Our tracking is specifically about data lineage, i.e. what data was fed into this container to create this result. It looks like wandb does do dataset versioning but it's unclear to me if it's storing references to versions of the dataset or if it's actually the source of truth that's storing the data. I think it's the former but I'm not sure. Pachyderm focuses on the later of being the system that stores and versions the large datasets and presents a unified hash for them. Other systems can then record that hash to have immutable versioned datasets they can rely on.

We do have a few philosophical differences though. The biggest being that we're opposed requiring data-scientists to including tracking code to trace their results. Every company we've seen use systems like that winds up with different levels of instrumentation on different pipelines and a lot of experiments with no instrumentation. It makes it hard to answer questions like "what are all the places this data is being used?" conclusively, because there's always this "dark matter" of code that hasn't been instrumented that your code doesn't see. We prefer a system that automatically tracks things without asking the user to do anything so that information is always collected and there when you need it. That being said, I'm not sure how you could do the type of finegrained model tracking you guys do automatically. We can track lineage automatically because we're the system that stores and exposes the data, so we know when it's being accessed.

> would that also require the setuid bit to be set with ownership as root (like sudo)?

Doesn't setuid just change to whichever user owns the file? So with setuid root only needs to own it if you want full administrative privileges.

I also haven't played with setcap myself. My understanding is that capabilities don't rely on file ownership but instead on extended file attributes (which can't be changed by ordinary users on a correctly configured system). So root doesn't need to own the file, but of course granting any capabilities to a binary for which a non-root user has write permission seems like it would be a really bad idea in general.

> And reside on a filesystem without the nosuid mount option?

Yes, it appears the nosuid mount option disables file capabilities. (As one would hope!) But I'm not really seeing how that's an issue since (for example) bind mounts and btrfs subvolume mounts both allow changing the nosuid option.

(man 7 capabilities)

"invent a hypothetical situation where the capitalists give all their money to workers"

Well, ya, co-ops are technically corporations. But they're generally not corporatists. (For the purposes of a comment thread.)

Just like Karl Marx wasn't a Marxist, a la No True Scotsman fallacy, we all agree that there's a lot of daylight between Sam Walton's profit sharing model and the epitome of corporatism that Walmart became.

Hypothetically. Of course.
Bigger means bespoke. More NRE, more paperwork, more one-offs. Smaller means the entire supply chain is simpler and easier. Management is easier. And of course, the more times you do something, the easier and cheaper it gets.
