Nothing - if i knew of any.

All the Linux OSs i've tried is a mixed bag. A gamble. And i have a terrible experience with windows currently, so even ignoring Unix, Windows doesn't seem like an option.

I'll probably give Linux another try, i'm just concerned of driver issues primarily. Finding the right hardware, having trackpads and graphics cards not suck, etc.
This is one thing that mesos/aurora got right (the "turing-complete-by-design" config files, written in Python). Templating yaml is like templating html. It works but absolutely sucks at scale if your job is to maintain it.

It's good to know that such an interface could conceivably be built for Kubernetes, using the HTTP API. Even better that it supports any programming language (since it's a network interface); I'd see that as a step-up from aurora configs, in fact.

At some point, I imagine this will become the default way that Smart Organizations build around k8s, once k8s's core API is super-stable and people develop sound frameworks in $POPULAR_LANGUAGE for declaring your configuration.

Then, we can then banish yaml to the same fate as json and xml. One can dream, at least. :)
We do the same. The page loads with a div containing something like: `<%= content_tag :div, data: { behavior: 'vue_app', 'initial-data': { some: 'json' } %> <html spinner> <% end %>`

Yes, precisely. Now of course not all kids are the same, but hoping for several hours of quiet behavior after being cooped up a car -- possibly strapped into a child seat -- all day was unrealistic in our case. There are other problems as well: Finding a restaurant with healthy food that everybody will enjoy, without breaking the bank. And hotel rooms are filthy.

Granted, it could be a matter of personal preference as well. I enjoy the outdoors, and my own cooking, more than the inside of a restaurant or hotel.
Agreed. Just like everything else, the ideas hold more power based on who they are coming from. Eric is a stellar individual with a trail of success behind him - and I'm not taking anything away from him with this comment, but if I were to go to a set of worthy investors and corporations pitching this idea - I'd be laughed out of the room as naive.
I'd prefer trading timeslots, like once every 10 minutes, with randomized execution order.

You put your orders in, they all get queued up and then the queue gets executed randomly.

That would force the traders to think in different terms, closer to the real value of the asset.
Whoa, that's crazy precise. They got it down to the tens of thousands?

If so, seems like they should write "13.700 billion" for the first part. I'm a little suspicious of this number as-is.

Looking for a source for those numbers, I found this[0]:

> While previous estimates were 13.7 billion years old, give or take 130,000 years, new predictions hone in with more precision- at around 13.77 billion years, plus or minus 40 million years.

Which is much less precise and feels a lot more believable.

I remember this being the case on the dawn of each new
cellular technology. Edge vs 3g, HSPA(+) vs 4g, etc. It'll get better over time. That said, I am purposely avoiding 5g until that time. No sense in paying extra for the phone and service for features I -don't- want to use.
This is basically it. If you trust an entity, great, if not, move and update your DNS maybe even host your own if you're up to the challenge.

Taxes sound like a lame excuse to have mandatory tracking. From odometer readings at inspection to registration charges it is neither the only nor the most efficient way to charge for road usage. Especially since it would in practice regress to a 'max theoretical charge' as an opt out for taxation purposes - even if bounded changing for some absolutely ridiculous assumptions like your car spends all year going in a free loop at the maximium safe speed 24-7 while loaded to maximium capacity.

Many private companies are staying private for longer, with an average time from launch to IPO creeping up toward 10 years or more. Most unaccredited investors are missing all of those substantial early gains.

Does LTSE have any plans to help speed the path to IPO and let more unaccredited investors participate in early growth and success?
I trust them less because their privacy claim around email (and really their entire service) is dumb.

It’s good to use your own domain, it’s good to use a non ad-driven business model like fastmail (though even this is mostly for the user experience and not security)

Beyond that “secure” email when you’re largely communicating with other @gmail users, isn’t a thing.

Google has some of the best security researchers in the world, I’d trust their employees to do a better job than proton at securing the service itself.

Email should be treated as largely public (for personal use) and not used for sensitive communication. It’s a little different in a corporate setting, but then you’re not using proton mail anyway.
Couldn't agree more. There's something to be said for life experience which filters out the irrelevant and the non-important. I've always appreciated the story about the pit trader that earned millions in his career trading green lumber, all while assuming it's just lumber that's been painted green. It's too easy to theorize in an ivory tower and miss what's actually important.
You have no argument here.

the average loan for a new vehicle is 3-5 years. Is it your belief that you're likely to default on that loan, therefore why would you learn the system in your vehicle?

The average ownership length for a car is roughly 6 years. Taking the time to learn a system that you'll have for anywhere from 3-6 years is completely reasonable.

This is the very definition of #firstworldproblems.

Functional programming is getting popular in JavaScript not because of serializability of state changes across threads, but because immutable state and immediate-mode GUIs go hand in hand. React, as an example, works as an immediate-mode GUI (re-rendering VDOM on every state change) on top of a retained-mode GUI (the DOM). You manipulate your state using reducer functions and the library works behind the scenes to convert that to a UI. It alleviates all of the weirdness and performance issues of interacting with the DOM when state changes.

GUI programming is traditionally retained-mode. OOP is traditionally state encapsulation and mutability. OOP and retained-mode GUIs are conceptually similar, and Functional Programming and immediate-mode GUIs are conceptually similar.

Here's a good explanation of this: https://medium.com/@puppybits/immediate-mode-reactjs-7a6302c...
I still don't want Waze on my car's screen because it sits low in the dash. I intentionally mount my phone such that it's high up and I can still see the road while looking at my phone.

It's absolutely less safe to look down and away from the windshield in order to navigate.

It's a fine balance between restricting the view slightly with a smartphone holder vs keeping both driving and navigation in the same approximate line of sight.

But it's better than looking down and to my right to navigate (or change radio stations, or adjust climate control, etc etc)
I thought maybe they chose "cat"enate to avoid a naming clash with a "con" command but looking back through the early Unix sources there doesn't appear to have been one.
For the way I use the screens, to all intents and purposes they are passive while I'm driving. I don't have a need (or want) to touch them at all while the car is moving. I set up my map route before I pull off, often on the phone before I get in the car, then that's it for the rest of the trip.

Controls for everything else like AC, volume, switching radio station/track is not needing to be done with the screen, it's all through classic buttons/knobs or steering wheel controls. I would not buy a car which required the screen to be touched for these things.

I don't see anything objectively more or less dangerous about operating a radio in this way, the only real difference is that instead of your radio frequency being visible through 7 segment displays, it's now on a high resolution display.

I'm still building so I currently don't. Kubernetes is just a tool I use to deploy my customers sites on, it's not the selling point.

I do however have plans of supporting enterprise by packaging a version of the app into an on-prem deployment system so you can just deploy your own kubernetes cluster and install the app and have your own enterprise version of Primcloud.
A long time ago I was flipping through very early morning local TV, and came across some sort of fishing program that was talking about a neat way to camp far away from other people.

They would get a float plane and fly deep into the Canadian wilderness and find a lake far away from any roads or trails. They would land there and then camp beside the lake for a week or two of fishing and hiking without another human anywhere within 50 miles, or without any signs than any other humans had been to that spot in years or decades.

Alright, so Apple are forcing all developers to add Sign-in with Apple (if they have other third-party login services), privacy benefits aside.

But if you Apple decide that they don't like you anymore, they'll not only cut you off the App Store, they'll also bury all (or a subset of) your users.

How would you trigger a device with a sound without continuous capture?
Ah, interesting. As a software contractor I'm outside that target market, and maybe even a competitor to your product in that I offer services to that market. It's something I'd love to play with though - so much "procode" as you call it is detail-oriented arcane config rather than coding and it would be good to have a tool that accelerated (or removed outright) that work. Kudos.
> In the functional example, where does Person store the fName and lName variables?

With a closure? And you get state hiding too.

> If functions persist data, are they really classified as functions anymore?

Sure, since otherwise returning a function from a function wouldn't be very interesting.
This feels... not open. Click around the site, can't find anything useful just manifestos and principles. I really hate when startups do this. You're not "open for business" you're open to being in business. If you tell me you've started an exchange, you're open when there's listings and people can trade.
Remastering means you take the master and digitise it again using better techniques. Taking a dvd and upscaling it is not remastering.
No this is a really important question, and it has an answer.

They are called closures. They are "environments" in which variables live, each of which can have a parent environment dictated by whatever rules there are. (Some programming languages have it where every use of curly braces creates a sub-environment; in JavaScript originally only the function keyword would introduce a sub-environment and if you write `if (something) { var x = 123; }` then `x` belongs to the parent closure and it might contain `undefined` if the branch was not triggered. Since then JS has introduced let/const which are scoped to curly brackets.)

When you declare a function it still has access to the full space of variables which it was lexically defined with. If you mutate those with one function then another function which has access to that environment can see those changes, etc.
I would agree with you if JS wasn't JS. It is a terrible language to write OOP-style code in and a much better one to write functional-style code in. It is inherently a more functional language.
Nice to see a native app and not something Electron-based.

I wonder about native app viability these days though. Years ago I used native email apps like Outlook, KMail, and Thunderbird, but lately I just use the websites made by the service providers (Fastmail for personal, Gmail for work). As an open standards person I find my behavior kind of depressing, but the websites just tend to work better.

>... something like Signal provides better cryptographic properties like forward secrecy.

Forward secrecy only works up to the point your end point gets compromised and only for messages you have not kept. So for the vast majority of people it provides very little value.

It provides no protection against someone who breaks your encryption and something like the Signal Protocol's much greater complexity provides more opportunities to do that.
yeah, if it were passive only, I'd 100% be ok with it. Being able to slap the map up on the larger screen is a definite win.

I just don't want to be interacting with it in a touch screen way while driving.
It could be done with some kind of JTAG mod-chip, but this depends on what kind of JTAG security they've implemented.

If you want to know where to start, search GitHub for 'KaveriPI', if you unpack AMD BIOSDBG.EXE you can find a complete list of processor registers. This is all from 2015 but the PSP is documented in there.

There's also a Microsoft Access database which has all the JTAG registers, but I don't have the time to decode the meaning of the fields... It is likely that things have changed since then but it still might be enough for a start.

Should the JTAG interface be protected then some kind of laser(?) fault injection might be required to open it up. I guest some of the eFuse bits can be overwritten, maybe there's a combination which can remove the lock. An innovative recycling company could work on making a jig to automate this somehow...

I appreciate the clarity in code — I'm asking for `betamaxinv` I think?

>>> betamax((3, 14), (4, 12))
0.29448379324802676

>>> betamaxinv(0.29, allowed_error=0.01)
[((3, 14), (4, 12)), ...]

I assume the results of `betamaxinv` are not unique, and so perhaps there need to be constraints, or return a family of results. I don't know. I'm trying to wrap my head around how OP got A ~ Beta(2,13) and B ~ Beta(3,11) without just brute forcing numbers into `betamax`.

The Internet has changed how I assimilate knowledge. It has wired my brain to pay attention to soundbites, rather than lofty tomes. This is why I am the proud owner of a large list of various short proverbs & idioms that I have gathered over the years via social media. I only collect the ones that help me in some way and discard anything that doesn't resonate with me. One example is this phrase by Lao Tzu

In every book, you can find little kernels of truth and can distill many larger points made in a book, down to helpful and short gems of wisdom. For me this is how I can take a shortcut and avoid reading ridiculous amounts of books!

Does anyone else do this?
The selling point of Monte Carlo is that regardless of dimension the estimation error is going to go down as 1/sqrt(n). That hides the dimension part in the 'constants' and the sampling routine.

Usually one cannot afford to visit all of the space. One visits high density regions preferentially.
This is a great point: "There are no intermediary servers with access to your account or copies of your messages." A number of popular email clients use intermediary servers and that's a complete deal breaker for me. I'd argue that should be a deal breaker for almost anyone. I'm not a security expert, but as far as I can tell, for most people the single biggest security vulnerability is an attacker gaining access to their email. Using a mail client with an intermediary mail server essentially doubles the surface area attackers can exploit.
> The thing is, where they found it is not normal: The light we see from it left the galaxy 12.4 billion years ago, meaning we’re seeing it as it was when the Universe itself was only 1.4 billion years old!

It's not confusing at all. It's because the long-worshipped, conventional big bang theory is wrong. The universe doesn't have a beginning or end. It's eternal. The original sin of that theory is that it's tainted with forced space for a deity belief at the center and always has been. The universe cycles unevenly through phases of motion, it doesn't magically start from nothing and then 'die.' The conventional big bang theory is as bad as any other children's tale going, it's up there with Santa Claus.

We're going to find a lot more supposed abnormalities like this over time. They're not abnormalities, it's the entrenched incorrect theories that are the problem.

The universe (everything that exists) is drastically larger than we already think it is. Humans are arrogant, we didn't realize the extent of the micro world, and the same exact mistake is being made at the macro scale. What they think is a singular ~14-15 billion year old universe, is nothing more than one collection of galaxies, there are many more like it nearby (many as in trillions and trillions). The micro world was far smaller than we imagined; the macro world is far larger than we're imagining. It's the same mental mistake playing out, caused by the same arrogance. What's beyond the 'universe' that we can see so far? More massive collections of galaxies, similar to the one we inhabit that we mistakenly call the universe.

The minimalist attitude to reading in medicine was a disaster. For centuries "doctors" only studied the classic texts (inaccuracies and all) and reading widely or seeking new medical knowledge was discouraged or made illegal. Medicine was correspondingly stagnant. The history of mankind isn't a straight line of progress, but if you're pointing to the past to show why we should be doing things differently today, you better make a way more convincing case than the one presented here about why that aspect of the past was better. At least try to argue the scholarship of the days past was better than the scholarship of today (not an easy argument to make). Otherwise, its just like an argument for a paleo diet - why would I want to adopt a diet for health reasons based on an idea that said diet was consumed by people that lived short, brutal lives?
> because OOP is easier to understand and leads to more maintainable code

How is OOP easier to understand exactly?

If you are debugging the code that looks something like this:

class Child extends Parent {

launchRockets() {
this.launch(this.rockets);
}

render() {
this.score = this.getScore();
return `<span>${this.score}</span>`;
}

}

How do you know which part of your code contains implementation of this.getScore method? How do you know which part of your code is responsible for the number of this.rockets and how many methods in how many classes can change it? How do you find out which part of your code is going to call the launchRockets method, and whether this will even be this class's method or one of its children's? How many hops across your codebase do you need to make to figure all this stuff out?

How is this style any simpler than functional?

A Quick Guide to Project Cost Estimating
The variables are persisted within a closure since they are in the scope of the internal function definitions. Whether each function points to the same closure value as they are changed would be based on the language semantics around the creation of the closure and whether mutability of the closure variables would propagate to the other function definitions that also have a closure around that variable (if the variables are updated by reference or value).

Read what you enjoy, and then read what the author mentions enjoying reading. Read a P.G. Wodehouse book: my personal suggestion. Preferably one from the Jeeves series.

A good book is not worth the investment only if you don't like it. I would assert that there aren't many worthless books that you can really enjoy. Also don't be afraid to drop a book that you find boring even if everyone says it's a great book its a classic etc. A good book will feel like a drug, you won't be able to put it down. It's not an investment its something you do for escapism. If it doesn't feel this way, just don't read it.
Retargeting vs. Remarketing: What’s the Difference?
The FAQ says that their dataset only goes back until June of 2001, so I imagine the methodology for the prior years in the Very Long Term History section was somewhat different.

The claim at the top of the page is that "The ratings are based on the number of skilled engineers world-wide, courses and third party vendors." However, the details show that it really is just a single search term across a variety of search engines. Maybe they used to have an intern read the classifieds at the back of the Communications of the ACM or something.
