So i only skimmed the presentation (It is an hour long).

> You don’t have to call out or reference the original speaker at all and say they’re wrong

I disagree. His talk is essentially a direct response to the other presentation. He is assuming context from the original presentation (A very famous one in this space from what I can pick up). Without explaining the context, his presentation would make less sense to those not as familiar with this particular tech scene.

Its not like he's saying the other person is an idiot or something. He actually compliments the other speaker multiple times.

> You can give your reasons why notebooks are good and even tackle common criticisms without picking apart their talk specifically

If your goal is to talk up notebooks sure. If your goal is to respectfully disagree with the widely accepted dogma, then you should make direct reference to the work you are responding to.

> Why would you say something negative about a peer’s work on stage

Making provocative statements challenging widely held beliefs is literally the job of a keynote speaker.

Not that anyone should really consider constructive criticism of an argument the same as saying something negative about the person making them. Personally, I think it'd be pretty passive-aggressive to demolish someone's work without doing the courtesy of referencing the work you are arguing against.

Edit: At the same time, I'm very sad to see you being downvoted. You make a reasonable argument that deserves to be debated on its merit, not downvoted imo.

There are lots of widely cited, wrong, studies. It being widely cited should be more of a motivator to "not* cite it and object to it's use, to further inform people that it is bunk.

I disagree in principle. The "victim" doesn't have to be offended for the behaviour to potentially be inappropriate. Behaviour has second order effects beyond the direct "victim" (e.g. people watch and think its ok, so more people do it, and it becomes "normal"). Its also entirely possible for the victim to be hurt, without him admitting it for a variety of reasons (E.g. social pressure, not wanting to be seen as weak or a crybaby, etc).

To be clear, I'm speaking in principle. I don't agree in the particular case that the behaviour was inappropriate.
A lot of the motivation to learn comes from being insecure about not knowing. Especially when your young. As you get older you become less insecure about not knowing and have less to prove, so motivation to learn declines.

How does the French FAMA model work
توصيات الذهب

توصيات العملات

There is a lot of debate about whether the trend of superior performance is due to market efficiency or market inefficiency. In support of market efficiency, the overall superior performance is explained by the increased risk faced by small stocks as a result of higher cost of capital and increased business risk. To support market inefficiency, market participants interpret superior performance through incorrect pricing of these firms' value, providing long-term excess return while adjusting for value. Investors who share the body of evidence provided by the Effective Markets Hypothesis (EMH) are more likely to agree with the efficiency aspect.

What does the French FAMA model mean for investors?

Fama and French emphasized that investors must be able to overcome additional short-term fluctuations and poor cyclical performance that may occur in a short time. Investors with a long time horizon of 15 years or more will be rewarded for the losses they incurred in the short term. Using thousands of random stock portfolios, Fama and French conducted studies to test their model and found that when combining volume and value factors with the beta factor, they could then explain up to 95% of the return in a diversified stock portfolio.

توصيات الذهب

Given the ability to explain 95% of a portfolio's return against the market as a whole, investors can create a portfolio in which they obtain the average expected return according to the relative risk they assume in their portfolios. The main factors driving expected returns are market sensitivity, volume sensitivity, and equity sensitivity, as measured by the book's ratio to the market. Any additional expected average return may be attributed to unpriced or erratic risk.

It feels like a serious stretch to talk about “implicitly implying” criticism of other options. If I say I love Chips Ahoy, I’m not “implicitly implying” criticism of Oreos.

> They have nothing in common except the "communication" label.

Sure they do. They have usecases in common.

There are many ways that I communicate with people, online, that has now entirely replaced me calling those people up on the phone.

That is how they are similar. They are similar in that online services are, in many cases, direct or indirect substitutes for the same exact usecase.

> They don't

They absolutely do. The shared functionality is that I no longer use phone companies anymore, and I instead use online services for that same exact content.

> That's not true.

It absolutely is true. To explain what I mean, I would say that I would truly rather be banned from the entire phone network than to be banned from something like facebook.

This is because I legitimately use facebook for communication more often than I use phones. Therefore, being banned from facebook would have a larger impact on my life than being banned from ever making a phone call again.

That is how facebook is more important than the phone network.

It is more important in that being banned from facebook would have a larger effect on my life than being banned from make phone calls ever again, due to the fact that I use facebook much much more for communication.

Maybe the earlier cells are pulling down large files over the internet or, more commonly, doing intensive computations such as model training.
In these cases, forks were deeply interconnected with project abandonment

X11 gave us XFree86, because changes to the X386 server weren't being merged. There wasn't much of an alternative to forking.

Xorg was forked from XFree86 over a license change, but after the fork, XFree86 died -- its maintainers were unable or unwilling to merge changes or do releases.
JS is quite a hacky language. Trying to turn it into Java neuters some of the benefits of being hacky (I'm looking at you, Typescript).

But at some point, it's neither a hacky Lisp like language, nor is it stable like Java or C++. It's just a middle ground that does these things poorly.

It would be nice to have a new programming language from scratch built to handle all the async/reactive mess. But until then JS is our best bet.

The author was responding to a talk made by a friend and he let him know ahead of time he would be using some of his slides and the friend was ok with that.
Well, I tried selling to the hobby market in the $150-$200 range because I figured hobbyists would be more forgiving if it didn't have advanced features. The market was completely uninterested (which may have more to do with my lack of marketing skills at the time, but I think there is still some truth that you can't immediately go for low cost when doing something like this). After reflecting on how mine turned out, I agree that the fees need to be higher. There is always room to come down later once the software is more mature.

Setting a low price puts you in the hobby market, and hobby engineers are some of the most penny-pinching people out there. They will spend weeks working on something they could buy for $30 and at the end say they saved money.

If you are selling to businesses, those problems mostly go away and you can get real money as long as you make sure you deliver stuff that works, and in the time you said you would. Having an engineer make a new board revision will easily cost more than $1000 for anything but the most trivial boards.
Using iterm2, you can set a "badge" (large text overlay) on a terminal tab. I have a short shell function (`ib foo`) that sets the badge to arbitrary text. It's NOT as good as setting the terminal theme, but it's still very helpful to use it like this:

ib production && ssh production-machine
ib demo && ssh demo-machine

It's definitely helped me when testing a fix on a demo or staging instance, and has helped me avoid doing it on production accidentally.
It was clearly a mistake for him to even play along, especially if he was emotionally exhausted already.

The best you can do when people are being stupid like this is ignore them. They hold no power over you unless you let them.

This whole CoC thing is sadly fraught with virtue signaling psycho-sadists who enjoy playing tribunal.

If your talk is in response to another talk by someone else, and you're taking slides and content from their talk and reacting to them, it's important that your audience know what the initial talk was. They have to have the context of the debate, including who is on each side, to fully investigate both sides and reach their own conclusions.
I don't see any specific details on this.
Over the years, HN's userbase has made it clear most are unfamiliar with Wikipedia beyond surface level details. Folks on this site would probably be surprised how often this happens in the sausage factory there, too.

The big theme in all the most exasperating cases, whether to do with HOAs, CoC enforcement, or even the police seems to involve:

1. wide difference between rules as written and agreed to versus how they are applied

2. unchecked power for enforcers, who can flout punishment/scrutiny, as above, for reasons below

3. insufficient interest from parties not directly impacted
You certainly express an unpopular opinion, and at first glance you are right: secure backups should be a priority for any IT organization.

However, not all backups are continuous and pervasive. There are often backup windows, gaps, and processes that halt with no one noticing. Ryuk also actively disables and deletes backups to maximize impact, while also seeking out mount points that might be backup targets - and encrypts those as well.

Of course, we're also talking about hospitals here. Even a well-managed system with hourly differential backups leaves plenty of time for radiology data to be lost in the critical hour before life saving surgery.

More realistically though, how long would it take you to discover and remove a sophisticated penetration, then restore every device, ensure none of the restores are also infected by the malware that had probably been there for a while, and bring a hospital system with thousands of impacted systems back online? 72 hours? A week? A month?

What happens to the patients? Admissions to the emergency room? What if adjacent hospitals are also hit, or are already impacted by the COVID spike and have no open beds?

People literally die due to hospital ransomware attacks. No one deserves that.

Ransomware is akin to kidnapping, it's just the data and customers that are held hostage, not kids or loved ones. Always blame the criminal, never the victim.

>I know the value of propaganda but the idea that a mlitary trains to produce patently false propaganda targeted at its own civilian in the guise of the civilian government without its knowledge is disturbing.

You ought to look up Operation Mockingbird, the Nariyah testimony, there are other examples. The activities you describe are widespread in the US. There was also someone did a study of some cable news network that found 92% of guests were current or former government officials, retired generals etc (AKA likely on CIA or military intelligence payroll)
> If my phone company decides who I can call, then I got issues.

> If a website arbitrarily bans all kind of people it will soon be their own problem as people leave with a single click.

False. I use facebook for communicating with people more often than I use the phone network.

Being banned from facebook would have a much larger effect on me, and many others, than being banned from ever making phone calls again, due to the fact that we use facebook for the vast majority of our online communication.
Docker will begin enforcing rate limits on container pulls
Just received the following email from Docker. Looks like it has a potential to mess up some CI pipelines.

> You are receiving this email because of a policy change to Docker products and services you use. On Monday, November 2, 2020 at 9am Pacific Standard Time, Docker will begin enforcing rate limits on container pulls for Anonymous and Free users. Anonymous (unauthenticated) users will be limited to 100 container image pulls every six hours, and Free (authenticated) users will be limited to 200 container image pulls every six hours, when enforcement is fully implemented. Docker Pro and Team subscribers can pull container images from Docker Hub without restriction, as long as the quantities are not excessive or abusive.

> In addition, we are pausing enforcement of the changes to our image-retention policies until mid-2021, when we anticipate incorporating them into usage-based pricing. Two months ago, we announced an update to Docker image-retention policies. As originally stated, this change, which was set to take effect on November 1, 2020, would result in the deletion of images for free Docker account users after six months of inactivity. Today’s announcement means Docker will not enforce image expiration on November 1, 2020.

> For more details, please read the blog post summarizing the changes or review the documentation for rate limits.

> Details about Docker subscription levels and differentiators are available on the Docker Pricing Page.

> Thank you for using Docker.

Calling those particular sites 'alternatives' is ridiculous. There are legit competitors to the big social media sites that aren't cesspools of child porn and hate speech, and those are doing fine. Arguably the biggest up and coming competition, Tiktok, isn't being assailed on free speech grounds but over national security fears.

That's fair. I would hope we can recognize that some things just can't be done in public, while other "offenses" are more subjective and their validity can depend on the relationship of the individuals involved as well as how the supposed target/victim took it. For example, whether it's OK to hug someone in public depends on things like whether it was your life partner or a stranger, and whether the recipient was OK with it.
