Recently I've found that uncontended atomics are less expensive than what back-to-back tests would suggest, and so the real-world performance of TLS vs uncontended atomics might be close than the numbers in the article would imply (assuming you aren't actually in the back-to-back [1] scenario).

If you really want to gold plate things, you could imagine a hybrid strategy that initially uses a shared CAS-based counter for new threads, but moves some threads to a private TLS counter if they are using it heavily for some definition of heavily. Revocation, where you decide that a thread no longer deserves a dedicated counter, is more tricky!

[1] Roughly, "not back to back" means that your atomics are spaced out by more than 20 cycles or so.
By interpreter, do you mean narrator (the person that reads the book)? If so, then yes, many people know the name of certain narrators. For instance, I will listen to any audiobook narrated by Jim Dale.

At one point in history a "0day" referred to a pirated release of software on/before it hit the shelves (and/or the crack that was released simultaneous to protected software aka "warez").

It was years later that a "0day" went from a copy protection removal/crack ("0day warez") to its more general modern usage in computer security.

I've also helped teach Aikido ... mostly to kids.

Having to step out of yourself and break it down is a great learning experience.
One difference: With an 0-day you know your target can't have done anything to specifically mitigate that vulnerability. If a vulnerability is well known but still unpatched by the vendor, a potential target can take their own steps to protect themselves.

For example, if you're running some ancient mailing list software that you know has an unpatched XSS vulnerability, you can have your front end servers scan for attempts to exploit that and abort the requests. Or lock it down with a CSP policy. Or if you know your image manipulation library has tons of vulnerabilities, you could run it in a locked-down sandboxed environment where exploitation doesn't get the attacker much of anything.
Can you explain this further? How does that example equate to uber's responsibility?

> There are people who never grow up if given the opportunity to keep living with their parents. My cousin is one of them.

The case of a totally unmotivated individual not engaging themselves in school or work is totally different than the case of working young adults who want to live independently of their parents, but can't afford to do so due to high cost of living, high debt, or other financial factors. I know people who have been in both categories, and they are not much alike.
Note that they didn't say perspective, but "experience". People with vastly different perspectives can share perspectives.

From your statements you appear to be prejudiced against people you judge to be racist. Are you saying that is morally wrong?

> Once cracked, DRM is as good as nothing and it's low effort for an everyday gamer to get and play pirated games.

I think you're overstating this quite a bit. It's basically only true for games that are single-player (with a few exceptions), and are not currently receiving frequent updates (or you are categorically not interested in updates). Besides that, e.g. Steam is extremely convenient; installs are rapid and safe, saves are synced across different machines, mods are often well integrated with Steam Workshop, etc.

For many, the above list is easily worth the price to pay. It's not like once DRM is cracked, sales drop to zero. DRM exists because the profit-minded companies find that at some level of investment in DRM, they get a good ROI.
I believe so. People can probably set up some physical models and simulate the wear against various elements, and possibly detect similar wear in the reality. Even without AI, human inspectors can remotely monitor the tower using drones and check more checkboxes than one.

By employing such effort and maintaining towers more responsibly, PG&E at least could partially evade the blame and liability. IMO this could be a good startup idea if founders know the right people.
That fires would happen for other reasons is completely inconsequential to me in this case. This tower was criminally neglected even in basic maintenance. Such a tower should not exist in any place, and if only the consequence would be long power outages without forwarning.

Separately, everyone responsible for the failing tower to be able to light such a disastrous fire, should be prosecuted as well. PG&E certainly isn't solely responsible for the fire, but they are completely responsible for the tower failing.
Why when someone complains about something Google did does somebody always reply "nobody complains when Apple does the same thing," and when someone complains about something Apple did somebody always replies "nobody complains when Google does the same thing?"
I diversify my interests, get interested in new things I'd never considered before. There's never enough time to plumb every rabbit hole. There's always something I've never given the time of day before.

But to unask your question, maybe we don't need to be spending more time online, but less. Maybe let the internet be boring.

Half of my friends are landscapers. Why? Hobbies and volunteer work.

A friend of mine was best friends with someone she sold a piece of crafting equipment to. Showed up and didn't leave for four hours.

If all you do is eat, sleep, and drink software, then you aren't going to know anybody outside of software. It's one of the things we mean when we say that doing software as a profession and your main hobby can be harmful.

Doing other things doesn't mean you never work on software outside of work. It means you do it when you have other things sorted out.

I read earlier this year that Whole Foods were calculating the risk of unionisation across their stores and that they believed that this correlated with factors within a store including lower levels of ethnic diversity.

Whether, with all other things taken into account, this remains a factor, and whether there is causation, I don't know, but they did see fit to mention it specifically as a "Store Risk".

Currently VR data is not very good for anything really yet, because we have no scalable way to understand it.

"raw" VR data is about 10 megabytes a second of black and white infrared video.

plus audio and position data of either controllers or hands.

After its been processed it can give you a sparse pointcloud of your living room (which is not overly bad) but thats not something thats done by facebook, yet. With a bit more work you could get a dense pointcloud.

Unlike AR which will need a bunch more processing on device to get position and geo data, VR is mostly just slam
> This is a motte. "Limiting your hiring to a specific race" means excluding everyone outside that race because of race. I think everyone here agrees that's stupid, and today almost no one is openly doing that.

Intentionally perhaps not, but that doesn't mean that they aren't doing so unintentionally. As a silly example, if you restrict yourself to hiring Stanford CS grads, you'll have a hard time hiring more than a few Black people each year. If you aren't offering the best possible offers, and going out of your way to court those handful of students, you may not end up with any.

> then you are doing something wrong and bad

This isn't a bailey. To continue the above example, you have a few options. You can court those specific students, maybe that's a bad idea. Alternatively, you can look in more places. Hire from other schools, like state schools especially in the southeast. You'll find a ton more candidates, many of whom are just as qualified as those from Stanford. And you'll end up with a more diverse workforce along just about any axis you could pick.

You didn't sacrifice anything except the ability to say "we only hire Stanford grads", which isn't really a sacrifice.

I don't think sites like blogspot and medium says it is their content. Also, on the flip side I know that most of the self hosted sites dies in 5 years. You can say that it is their fault, but statistically speaking I would pretty much assume that the site will die. Thirdly, self hosting is not that easy. Even most developers do not have complete knowledge of things like server management, security, migration, networking etc. let alone other users.

> You can then switch providers, switch systems you use, or whatever you want to do.

Switching from say blogspot to medium is much more easier than even switching between two regions of AWS. Switching cloud provider is tough.
Why is it people will argue that there should be fewer regulations to allow companies more freedom to operate but when those companies, unsurprisingly, put money ahead of safety, it’s then the government’s fault for not regulating those companies?

At some point companies need to take responsibility and be held accountable for their (in)actions. I know this is an unpopular opinion for HN, given its venture funding roots, but companies shouldn’t be given a free pass every time they screw up due to placing greed above all else.

I do have only very minimal xp in k8s, as I have tried to use it only once (and never again). To me it seem like mOst of the comments are about the unusable and unmaintainable yaml configuration files. This seems like exactly the issue I had a few years ago, when I was cursing, because I could not find a spec or docs for the yaml stuff in all the pages and pages of seemingly important documentation and thus could not figure out how to transform a docker only deployment into k8s deployment. I also remember having to set up helm, according to whatever tutorial or official guide I was following. It was all a distant nightmare, that I do not wish to repeat.

But, no, people criticize Apple for everything they can think of. It's one of those companies where there's a set of people who, for whatever weird reason, have decided it's the enemy. They're against Apple and everything it stands for.

It's strange, I think the only company I feel that way about is Facebook. Maybe because phones are the most intimate things we own, they become part of our identities?

The issue isn't specifically what failed.

The issue is that the failure in this case was both predictable and ignored. PG&E willfully failed to inspect/maintain the equipment.

Accidents happen and you can't control for everything. But this is a very clear and obvious failure. The failure isn't specific to what failed in this case (The c-hook) but the failure of PG&E to do any due diligence.

The fire started in grassland, not in a forest. As it grew, it spread to forested areas. There is a lot of grassland out in California and it gets very flammable in the summer when it all dies out and dries up. Dead grass is basically well-aerated vertical kindling. It's so easy to light that when I was growing up outside of Sacramento, a common cause of local wildfires was cigarette butts flicked out a car window. When we mowed the lawn in the summer, we would keep the garden hose charged. Basically, it burns, burns easily, and burns quickly.
Ask HN: Anyone still doing monolithic Django?
Printing a hello world over kubernetes cluster is an overkill, so are multiple microservices when you do not need them. I loved monolithic django, but with the advent of microservices architecture and modern JS libraries react, vue, and the likes, here is what you got to do

Create a DRF Backend

Take care of authentication at both ends

Build your SPA in a modern JS framework.

The good is modularity, maintainability, better UX controls, super interactive UIs, and the likes, the bad is you need to write more code. In simple cases the good old django templates is good enough. Is anyone still doing them? I love the organised new age FE framework code, the imports that come with ES6.

Is anyone still doing monolith with django template and ES6. If so, mind sharing your workflow, and libraries?
I'm fairly sure that the spacing between the counters is so that writes on separate cores don't fight over the cache line coherency logic. I'm not sure how you conclude that putting multiple counters into the same line avoids false sharing. That looks like a text-book case of false sharing to me.

If memory is an issue, is your suggestion going to behave any better than simply collapsing each counter down to 8 bytes per thread? Perhaps a bit if there's a wide disparity between counter frequencies and the independent counters tend not to run simultaneously, otherwise you now have contention between mostly unrelated tasks, which are now interacting less subtly.
He's just using this gimmick to draw attention, and it worked.

Nor do qualia substitute for statistics, or for different qualia. Almost every woman will have the experience of menstruation, yes, but, for example, how many of them have been sexually harassed by a man? Some of them have never had that experience, others have had it dozens of times. If you have a woman in your group and you assume she knows what it's like for women in general, you may be very wrong. Yet that assumption seems pretty common—I've seen a decent number of accounts of people who belong to some group, complaining that progressives assume they speak for everyone in that group. There's an example upthread.

I'm not saying everything can be gotten vicariously through research, but a lot of things can be. And then the question becomes, which specific things do you want, and what's the best way to get them? I think the diversity discussion rarely gets that far—and if it did, strategies would end up very different.

For internal k8s config at our org we built an config DSL using Starlark. The golang Starlark interpreter is super easy to use and extend. Starlark is familiar to every developer in our org because we are a Python shop. The tooling then spits out k8s YAML.

Essentially the config language implementation would be the same logic that a helm chart would do, but you’re writing the logic in Go versus a text templating engine. You can easily unit test parts and rely on the compiler to catch basic mistakes. Way better than templating YAML.

We also provide escape hatches so people can easily patch the resources before they get serialized to YAML. People can use that to customize our standard deployment config however they want.

So far this has worked very well and been extremely easy to maintain.
You don’t have to speculate about trees causing fires in the area: the thread eventually mentions a second fire, Camp B, caused by a tree falling on a line. It was subsumed by the first Camp fire. It may have caused just as much trouble if it was the only fire.
