Yes, our container integration needs to become more streamlined. One of ours first goals is make it very easy to deploy all quickstarts on OpenShift (= Kubernetes) especially the Quarkus ones, by including a docker file and a how-to-deploy in the readme.

Today, it should already just be a matter of taking the quickstart(s):
https://github.com/kiegroup/optaplanner-quickstarts
and following the quarkus deploy guide:
https://quarkus.io/guides/deploying-to-openshift
but we'll streamline it even more.

As a second stage goal, this will deal with starting up nodes as needed too.
You're thinking of an RTG, not a reactor.

Not sure how painful this would be. Slowly being stretched into pieces doesn’t sound like the most pleasant way to go.
If the error necessarily goes up exponentially, and error correction or dampening can not possibly work, I would count that as new knowledge about the basics of quantum mechanics.

Basically, either quantum computing works or we'll learn a lot more about quantum mechanics we didn't already know.
If there were a collision, and a chain reaction that led to disruption of other satellites, what is the chances that certain world leaders use it as an excuse to declare state of emergency, and if so does that effect election dates?

I suppose you mean temporal.io, but just FYI, the first google result for me was https://github.com/RTradeLtd/Temporal which is far but not far enough to be “obviously unrelated”.

You might want to give a link next time to avoid ambiguity.
It feels like the entire current deal about monopolies is instead about massive centralization even if it's not technically monopolies. Specifically:

- the post really talks about cohesive platforms of all sizes: a topical forum can easily have the same aspects even though members may migrate at any time.

- countries might come out of the current ruckus with an understanding that massive centralization and platforms is something to worry about, in a lawmaking and enforcing way, even if it's not monopolies. Because it's a centralization of power, albeit indirect power so far. Of course, this problem is just what cyberpunk prophesized, so it's interesting to see how countries deal with expanding rule of corporations: namely if the US rethinks or confirms its position that corporations are just fine.
One of those lemmata casts doubt on the veracity of "Port Out, Starboard Home." I also enjoyed the dual meanings of pot-walloper, similar to "cutting coupons" shifting semantics at opposite ends of the NRS social grades.
Are you planning to monetize? If not, then keep SEO out of it.
Why would you be paranoid? If the US is Rome then the “Fall” has been happening for multiple decades now. No Rome stays “Rome” forever so I don’t know why people work themselves into a tizzy over the fact that it’s happening.
Not sure how much my viewing influences Netflix "Top 10", but this week it showed Star Trek TNG of being part of it. With all the series being out, including opd ones, I just don't have time to get to watch stuff right after release. I also tend to binge watch series before starting a new one. So when finally start to watch a new series, it might well be to late to get more than one season. Great, basically the same shitty situation we had back the day. And I really thought streaming would result in more variety. Turned out it is just a more modern version of cable tv.
Also in AI the real innovation seems mostly in the west - Google, Facebook, Open AI, Tesla, DeepMind etc. We're not going to get AGI by having lots of people label images.
> In Ip Man, there's a gang of Mandarin speakers who show up in Ip Man's Cantonese world. They somehow are able to speak to each other, and I find it unlikely. Perhaps it's because my Cantonese is mediocre. But it just doesn't sound like you could have a casual conversation across the languages.

So the mixed Mandarin / Cantonese conversations actually do happen. My wife's family are all native Cantonese speakers, but her uncle married into the family from another part of China. He understands Cantonese perfectly but is more comfortable speaking Mandarin; and everyone else understands Mandarin to various degrees but prefer to speak in Cantonese. So he just speaks Mandarin while everyone else sticks to Cantonese; and it's quite a fluid back-and-forth.

That said, for that to happen so naturally the way it does in the Ip Man movies is really unrealistic. First of all, Mandarin wasn't as well-known in Guangdong in the 1930's as it is now; and there's no way someone from another part of China could just show up and magically understand Cantonese: It would take at least a few months of immersion to be able to "listen" fluidly enough to have that sort of a mixed conversation.

Even more unrealistic is Ip Man 4, where he shows up in San Fransisco, and starts talking in Cantonese to people who have immigrated from Beijing -- including one of the character's 12-year-old daughter who grew up in San Fransisco. Yeah, that's not going to happen.

As an iPhone and Macbook Pro user since 2015 (formerly Motorola Android phone and Windows desktop) I feel like I'm constantly walking on Apple's upgrade treadmill.

That iOS is available for install on older devices is only one data point across the entirety of the Apple ecosystem. And the Apple ecosystem is only one of many, so if one entertains the premise of this post, Apple being 'better' than Android in this specific way doesn't disprove the premise.

Also note that simply being able to install new(er) iOSes on older devices is only part of the battle. I upgraded my iPhone 6 to its point of obsolescence: what was once an absolute joy to use became so slow that using it for even basic web browsing was a painful chore. One could argue that the availability of OS upgrades for old devices combined with Apple's reluctance to ever back-port security and core functionality fixes makes the treadmill worse and not better.
Isn't it obvious? Diversification leads to monopolization which leads to surveillance, which leads to propaganda and censorship and loss of civil liberties.

Until we understand the root causes, we are headed towards either mass censorship or revolution.

My comment could not be more useful or relevant.
If most people think like this and don't see the obvious link, then we are surely headed for disaster.

A sign of getting old indeed: when the technology at stage `n` is surely good enough and you see no reason for `n+1`. ;-)

You also set up a nice straw man there. Nobody’s saying that these things are “solving problems”. They’re just cool new technology. Being able to ask for an album while I’m chopping the vegetables for dinner is cool. Why not?
> Advertising is an example of fully decentralized propaganda

Not at all. Centralization is absolutely crucial to deliver advertising.

Getting a bigger audience to attract larger advertisers is what pushed newspapers, radios, television channels and finally web services to become behemoths.
The fake is coupled to the "real" implementation of the interface. But the test that uses the fake is no longer coupled to the implementation of the fake/mock.

Instead of counting how many times a method is called (mock), your test just gets to test the outcome of the overall operation (fake).
A tool like this exists since the 90s. As command line program or WinAmp-PlugIn:

http://streamripper.sourceforge.net
> "However, relying on dynamically-generated mocks can be dangerous, as it typically leads to implementation-aware testing."

I agree, tests should be simple! Dynamically generating stubs, mocks or even arguments for tests hides complexity which leads to test code that's hard to reason about... and is hard to change/fix
>Propaganda is not dependent on the speaker.

Yeah, when it's done to serve interests of private industry, it's called "marketing."

I and a few other students once cornered him to ask if he's the same Edwin Brady who wrote whitespace. He said no, it must be some other Edwin Brady. We returned later, with better evidence. He said "Ok, yes, it was me. But in my defense, I was drunk at the time." :)
Isn't the problem with shows being so insanely expensive to produce?

Everything lately is very polished with extremely high production values. We have/d this problem with AAA games in the industry. Art and asset budgets slurping the whole available resources.

If creators want to have long term deals they should probably learn to stretch a dollar a bit more.
I tend to agree, but with some reservations.

One difference between centralisation due to monopolies and centralization due to other things (government planning, industry-scale unions, etc.) is that monopolies are highly profitable regardless of efficiency.

Going broke is what usually kills things.

The macrofinancial situation, currently, is telling. We are obviously in the midst of a recession. Huge industries are in meltdown: hospitality, air travel, physical retail, etc. They are literally producing far fewer goods and services... stuff that people normally consume.

OTOH indexes are up. Why, because the profits of H&M or RyanAir are miniscule compared to fb or amzn regardless.

Consider what "increases efficiency .., lowering the prices and making products more affordable" means for fb or google. There are no prices, except ad prices. We can't even think about consumer benefits (more, better goods) in a meaningful way. What does more facebook even mean? Is it beneficial to anyone?

This matters because "more resources to fb, less to Ryanair" is the market working normally. Since fb doesn't consumer capital, all that happens is a stock price change.
I wonder if it's possible to generate a minesweeper on the fly, where you are guaranteed to never have to guess.

And if so, if you can make the generation efficient (polynomial time).

I should have asked that in the Pure Skill Minesweeper thread [1], but only thought of it more recently.

That's why I prefer watch anthologies like Fargo or True Detective. Each season tells a different story but it has common things (setting, vibe, etc.) with previous one and I know more or less what to expect. And if I want to skip let's say S02 I can watch S03 witout any problems.
I quite like the moral argument against hypothesis that we are living inside a simulation. I read it in Iain M Banks novel. It goes as follows.

Any entity technologically advanced enough to simulate our reality wouldn't be immoral enough to create something so morally horrible.
This way of writing, at least the overall arc, really shows. Ideally, writers know when to stop. The Revenge had such an ending, it was Season 3 if I remember well, before it turned into yet another soap opera. Babylon 5 on the other hand was a great example of having the whole 5 seasons basically written before they started production.
Once you're a customer, your less likely to leave.

So the goal is too attract new customers.. which is best done by the new hot show, not season 2 of the last hot show.

So little incentive to renew

The "ELI5" meme needs to die, it does not make any sense in most of the situations it is used, and also it's a self-disgrace to anyone using it to compare their own intelligence and knowledge to that of a five year old.
> What confusing maps! Blue ice and white water.

Bad coloring in schematic maps is something that is driving me crazy. This is especially a problem in maps published by media outlets. Often the water is for example white, and the land is black (like here: https://c8.alamy.com/comp/2C58E1H/map-of-caribbean-region-an...). I am regularly staring at these maps trying to figure out which place on earth it shows, only to realize after 10 seconds or so that it is e.g. Europe, and I was confusing water and land.

I agree, but the two are very similar if you read 'defects in a program' as bugs.

Bugs can be hard to cause, and thus not be noticed by user acceptance testing. So for catching them, tests are more useful.

Well sure, but if the larger point you're trying to make is that sensitive data doesn't get into the hands of the wrong people, "the data isn't actually sensitive data" is a weaker argument than "random people can't access your data without your explicit permission, and then only for a limited time."

The creepy "no" add is implying that your car's data is just available on some website for anyone to look up. That's a pretty big misconception that should be contradicted.
> Also, the collision will be off-center and, eyeballing the orbital diagrams, some 15 degrees shy of being head-on.

How can we tell it will be off-centre if there's enough uncertainty in the orbital prediction that they are only "1% to 20%" to collide at all?
Ye I have noticed this bullshit antidocumentation attitude everywhere. It is like something people make up as comfort since secretaries and technical writers were sacked in the distant past and people are not even trying to keep things in order anymore.

It has got way worse becouse of Scrum and constant churn living in the now and not planning two sprints ahead.
IMO the first season of Altered Carbon was good - the second one? Not so much... and it seems like the viewing stats reflected that.

I'd read the first book and it was interesting that despite the first season changing so much from the book it still ended up good (even improved in some aspects).
If you can, choose a big black hole. The smaller ones spagettify you faster.

Google Glass has not been axed. The consumer version flopped and was yanked from the market, but the "Enterprise Edition" targeted at precisely the market you describe is still live and kicking, and v2 rolled out late last year:

> It's really sad to see them fade into oblivion.

I agree, if only for one you didn't mention, Yahoo Games, which I have some fond memories of.

I didn't use the other Yahoo stuff much, but it's a shame, and quite strange, that such a big name from the late 1990s/early 2000s, that I don't remember/know of as being evil in the way other internet giants seem to be, has just withered away. TBH, I thought Yahoo Groups was shut down years ago.
That reviewer will be forever unsatisfied until Linux manages to cover all main and niche markets. That won't happen because there's no market drive for it. There's no company with a huge budget trying to develop a consumer-tailored Linux-based OS: the other two companies that develop consumer OSs do it just to sell additional hardware (Apple) or services (Microsoft). And expecting a community of people, each with their own interests, to just work for a goal that's not their own is but a fool's dream.
What you want is mSBC for HFP.

It supports 16 kHz sampling rates and sounds decent enough, although it's still a noticeable step down from modern VoIP codecs like Opus at 12 kbit/s.

The default is 64 kbit/s PCM or CVSDM, which is limited to 8 kHz and gives you potato quality comparable to POTS phone calls.

Unfortunately, not all headsets support it (Bose and Apple Airpods consistently do, in my experience), and I have no idea if common Linux Bluetooth stacks do. This seems to be a related ticket for pulseaudio: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/merge...

Security is always the trade off, and I don't have any good answers to that problem (aside regular maintenance).

The websites I'm thinking about, though, tended to be marketing websites ('microsites') for large consumer brands, that really didn't do a great deal functionally, and didn't need particularly robust security in the grand scheme of things.
Hmm, how does that work? I am from Europe, so I don't have insight into US customs. But here nobody knows where I am - how could they pay me differently? Do you have to report your location (and be truthful) in the US?
Fall of Rome is more of a literary trope than an actual reference.

Arguably, Rome didn't even fall when Rome fell. A Roman emperor continued to rule over a roman empire from constantinople (which had already been the capital for a long time) for another millenium.

Western intellectuals just had an obsession with "the fall of rome" as a concept. Lots of historians studied tomes of the stuff. Everything can be projected onto it: social puritanism, christian puritanism, anti-christianity (they abandoned jupiter), anti-immigration sentiment, anti-german sentiment, etc.
HFP supports multiple codecs, and if your headset and source support the more modern ones (e.g. mSBC), this is no longer true.
Why not just add a second NAS with 25TB and call it a day?

2 x 16TB disks = $600
4 bay NAS = $300

That would give you cost you 15$/month (over the 5 year hdd life) for 32TB of data, or $0.50/TB/month with super fast loading in event of failure, no egress costs and headway to grow to 64TB if you need it.
Love the scene in Sneakers where Whistler is reading the Braille Playboy. As a youth, I always thought this was so funny.
First and foremost, it's about the only organisation with monopoly on violence: the government. No commercial monopoly could maintain it's position without regulation. Solving the problem by giving even more power to the government is a completely backwards solution that will only bring even more of all this in the long run.
That's the interesting and confounding part of it. Going up to get them is expensive, sending them back rather less so.

VC is a bad comparison ... Maybe VC with the intent to sell all ownership to the first person that offers them a 20% ROI...

Netflix wants to bring in NEW customers... Existing customers are unlikely to unsubscribe, but getting new customers is hard at this point.

Best way to get new customers is to throw new shows at people, lots of them, get them hooked. If people join, again, unlikely to leave -- they will find other cool things to watch.

For Netflix, the value if a new hot show is way higher than season 4 of a very hot show... Nothing short of GOT (mid seasons) would be good enough to make it to season 5-6... I'm shocked some if these Netflix original series are making a 3rd season, since 2 is usually all it takes to milk a franchise
The great irony of this is that even people who think that they're on the winning side of this trend and who are benefiting from monopolization right now are going to be in for a big shock when they realize that they no longer have the freedom to sell their own company shares or use their own money as they please.

The employee and the passive shareholder will always get screwed over in the end. Always.

Surveillance and control will extend to absolutely everyone. Even the top 1%. Freedom and control will be in the hands of a tiny number of people. You can already see signs of this today.

Now they manipulate people through thought leadership and the media, but once people have given up their basic freedoms, corporations will be able to coerce people at will. It will not be your shares or your money anymore because what you will be able to do with them will be severely restricted. It will all be done in the name of financial stability and safety.
If you have seen game of life simulated with the use of game of life (metapixel) you'll find any suggestion that any kind of jailbreak to deeper reality is possible just laughable.
If this leads to having to spend less time on writing tests in total, things have gone right.

These fakes are much less maintenance heavy. As changes to implementation details don't require changes to tests. Hence, whilst you need to write tests for your tests, you spend less time writing tests in total.

There is an even simpler approach: for maps with K total cells there would be always K-1 unclicked cells and a single clicked cell after the first click, so you can generate K-1 cells and insert a "gap" corresponding to the first clicked cell. This works because every unclicked cell has an equal probability to become a mine.
