In case anyone is looking for a good option, I've had great success with InfluxDB's telegraph utility which automatically checks both uptime and certificates for HTTPS endpoints, combined with a grafana dashboard that sends alerts when the deadline approaches.
I don't agree. A cert that is just about to expire is as valid as one that's new. It only has two states: expired or not. For the user is either expired or not, they needn't be concerned until it actually is expired.
To me these patterns feel very close to what organizations have been tackling for the last 20 years in software development. Teams need to be given the autonomy AND responsibility to own their infrastructure, software and processes - especially since this field is moving so fast and still so new (compared to 40+ of software development).

We have a great starting point if we don’t start at 0, but from where the DevOps mindset currently stands.
These are classic symptoms of underpowered PIs. 99% of USB power supplies are not fit for a PI :(
We tried running things on AWS and digital ocean. Yes, AWS offers a lot of extra value with all the other services. But at the same time, we had a relatively simple application. We ended up managing our own sets of dedicated servers for a fraction of the cost. Peformance is way higher. In the end, the cost difference was just too big to justify it when we were trying to be scrappy. We also realized that all the extra features offered weren’t being utilized as our infrastructure requirements were simple.
US? Hell, look at what happens when countries start to open up from oppressive governments. Cars show up everywhere. We can never over estimate the desire by any people to have the freedom to go where they want when they want.

The issue with scooters is the same with motorcycles. First and foremost is safety but quickly arriving behind that is weather. Get below 70F and it can be cold even moving only 20 to 30 miles per hour then top it off with rain or worse?

The second issue with scooters and motorcycles is that in some regions they are just too easy to make off with so in the case of scooters I could see a government just using the rental system where they are everywhere giving no value in stealing them.
What you're describing is "taking a break", at your schedule, when you need it. Having other people interrupting / bothering you while you're trying to focus is a poor substitute for taking breaks.

Yes you said "I'm not saying your overall point is incorrect" and then questioned a source for a specific point. That created some ambiguity in my head. Perhaps you disagreed with that specific point? Perhaps you were calling into question that specific point because the source is bad? That's why I asked for clarification. No ill will.

Could be my interpretation. My apologies. No need to be snarky about it eh.
We drove from Ottawa to Saskatoon and back in an electric car this summer. I estimate that it added about 20 minutes to the 30 hour drive. All other charging times were combined with bathroom or food or sleep breaks we had to do anyways.
You are probably right. The acid is also not good for the teeth. But getting a grip on my weight is just way more important to me, in comparison.
Crowd sourcing errors by relying on user generated reports is sometimes a good idea, however in this instance it's not. Cert expiry is something that can be automated and monitored because the expiry is deterministic. Crowd sourcing is for the non-deterministic.

This is something that should be regulated — E-mail being the equivalent of a public utility, large providers should not be able to just refuse it or hide it in junk folders.

The problem with the DMCA is that the anti-circumvention clauses are vague at best, and unfortunately it's easy for well-funded corporations to make claims against it.

There is nothing in the law that talks about the effectiveness of the anti-circumvention tech, so even if the tech is trivial to bypass, if that bypass is done via "unintended usage" (according to the rights holder, not you) then they can claim you are doing something illegal.

It's a shitty law.
I hate to break it to you but distribution of tools related to bypassing DRM/technical protection measures (which is what the RIAA takedown letter actually cited) is illegal in Switzerland and has been since 2006.

It's especially ironic because, statistically speaking, the real threat is from cis people trying to police who gets to use the bathroom. This anti-trans panic has led to completely cisgender women being harassed and assaulted on top of the usual assaults on and harassments of trans women.

The panic depends on the weird, contradictory belief that men need to dress up to assault women. Often from the same people who will insist all men are incredibly dangerous and do their harms out in the open. Actual doublethink.
Yeah, it definitively gets worse. Prepare for more desserts.
On the 'default meal' thing, I actually find I become essentially physically unable to eat the same meal for more than a week. For important psychological reasons, I suggest changing up any 'default' meal on a weekly basis. If that's too much effort then, well, your chances of success are poor anyway.
There's some debate whether it actually happened in 2000 with Nader acting as a spoiler who allowed Bush to win. It certainly became a stock Dem talking point, but it's difficult to be sure whether it really made a telling difference.

Personally I don't think America can be fixed at this point.

The gap between the tribes is now so extreme it's practically evolutionary speciation, and Democrats and Republicans are barely breeding with each other.

This is not a joke. The differences seem to be rooted in psychology - strongly correlated with parenting - and perhaps through inherited brain structure.

At some point "They are not like us" stops being rhetoric and becomes biological reality. I think we're closer to that point than we realise - in the US, and also the UK.
Any recommendation for a monitor?

My 5yo son has fun with an external keyboard connected to an old Android tablet. He learns to type and write basic math and words.

Few large organizations pay the on-demand price that this article uses for comparison.

By reserving the instance, or using spot, the costs of these instances come way, way down, usually 50-80%.

I’m not trying to defend AWS here, but for an accurate comparison, it’s best to use the numbers that people are actually paying in practice.
I see your point. To me, the two points however don’t stand at odds, both need to be addressed just the same. I said something similar in other comments, but only if your organization is building a strong team structure AND a solid process/tooling structure projects in ML can go successfully into production.

Is time better? My experience with Haskell went like this.

1. Interested in Haskell. Learn the language, read papers, enjoy the PL concepts and interesting academic work.

2. Does it scale? Implement small program in in C++ and Haskell. Optimize as best I can. Talk to people who work on ghc who happen to be in my lab. Further optimize. Everybody agrees, no further clear way to optimize the Haskell program.

C++ implementation remains several orders of magnitude faster.

If it were a time and space trade off, laziness would lead to good performance. But it doesn’t. It tends to produce stupendously bad cache behavior.

Haskell is a lovely platform for understanding some recent PL theory. It is possible to write the sort of obviously correct programs that make it so desirable.

It isn’t resource efficient. Worse, laziness means that performance tends to be chaotic. Small seemingly unrelated changes can change the execution order and change your profile a lot. Similar challenges exist in logical programming.
The meta-circularity is part of the impl details, cross-language calling (Java/JS/LLVM) seems to be the main selling point of it, so if you want GC-less logic then Clang->LLVM then running on the JVM is an option, no idea if it also simplifies native bindings though (that is more of a Panama issue and improving that is a good idea aswell).
You're right....but this is not everything. I still intend to continue adding resources

What do you mean with "real" decentralization? Git is as decentralized as you can get. You don't need IPFS to make it decentralized, it's already there. It was designed that way.

A lot of people are confused about this because GitHub and GitLab are the only intermediaries they've used to collaborate with git. If that applies to you and you would like to know better, read this: https://drewdevault.com/2019/05/24/What-is-a-fork.html
If it doesn't pass, it can't be driven and won't be on the road anyway. If it does, it is less efficient than an escooter/ebike, so it is worth it. Either method gets cars off the road.
I'm not sure that they do. Just because Hooks was inspired by functional concepts like algebraic effects doesn't mean the core React team is suggesting that writing React code is functional programming.

With that said, my point is that it's more important what you can _do_ with a tool, rather than the purity of the tool with respect to an abstract concept. Or, in this case, with with respect to your interpretation of the abstract concept.

I don't think anyone is suggesting with a straight face that React code is purely functional -- this is JavaScript, after all! However, Hooks are a valuable feature, and if they were inspired by algebraic effects, then so be it.

I think broad computer illiteracy in the general population has convinced people that you "need" a new, powerful computer. In reality, 95% of the population can get away with any decent computer from the last 10 years. Grandma isn't training a neural net, she's checking Facebook.

It really breaks down to acknowledging how many overlaps ML has with traditional software development. Great to hear that adding SREs worked for you - how did the transition go for the rest of the team? Any big learnings from your team about the transition?
People not sticking with it is really an added point to the reality that calories in/out is a very poor model for losing weight, even if it is completely correct at a physical level.
With practice you do get better at understanding the cost of the food you are processing. To me, using technical tools is very expensive in this process. It helps to begin with, but as soon as I have aquired necessary knowledge tech just gets in the way unless it is fully automated.
> not all calories are equal.

Irrelevant. You can eat nothing but twinkies and still lose weight as long as you maintain a caloric deficit. Certain foods are going to make that easier and healthier, but that's orthogonal to the actual weight loss.
I remember a couple of years ago I was on the top of some old volcano on an island, and I was dictating shell commands to a colleague so that we can quickly fix our expired certificate. Good old days.
According to Wikipedia the unification was in the 1860.

This though was built by Ludwig I. which was shortly before that (1825-1848) and according to the link above in response to the (citation link: "embarrassing") "invasion" by Napoleon, in order to fortify/ensure the "germanic identity" of the people that lived there, so that it would not "washed out" by a influx of french identity, thus also the name Walhalla.

At least that's how I understand the (very short) explanation in the above link.
I think every microSD and USB sticks by now has WL across the board, especially at awful grade. WL and ECC are must at current [price, BER, capacity, bit-per-cell] or something.
Let's not forget second or third order effects. A restaurant isn't just a restaurant: it involves a lot of other parts of the economy (for example, maintenance, supplies....).

So, the moment you shut down something "nonessential" you're actually hurting also other, apparently unrelated economic activities.

IOW, it might end up hurting also those providing "essential" services.
Quite clever! I wish there were more articles like this posted here :-)

Negative, paranoid narratives and rhetoric are just easy, and water flows downhill. I'm sure that the majority of political "programs or demand" have always been advanced with paranoid rhetoric. These are your enemies. This is how they deceive you. They are motivated by evil.

I think the most common mistake to think of the solution as civility and/or facts or evidence based politics. The "paranoid style's" primary (IMO) attribute is presenting the opposition as beyond salvation. They disingenuous, immoral, lying, evil people. Believe nothing they say. Question their motives. etc.

The actual opposite of this is broadly "Gandhism." Pared down: Assuming that your opposition is decent, responds to generous gestures, and can be convinced of your position because it is true. That doesn't mean that they aren't your opposition, but the idea is to recruit and oppose simultaneously. You're not trying to defeat anyone.

Ultimately, politics is a proxy for conflict. People understand conflict. It's usually about creating a seething solidarity among your side to defeat an opponent. The "paranoid style" is also the rhetoric of generals motivating their troops. Your enemy is cruel and wicked.
Isn't this problem orthoganal to storing hashed email addresses? You'll always have access to the email address the user typed in when you want to send a transactional email so you can perform whatever sanitization needs to be done at that point. How does storing the email in plaintext get around issues involving sending emails to case-sensitive mailboxes?
Author here, I'll try and write a response to your points.

Yes the post is cynical, I'm the first to admit that. The topic makes me angry because I think we should expect better of frameworks for the web. As a whole Flutter Web moves us in the wrong direction, towards a less open, less standardised, and less transparent web. On the point of accessibility, yes the web didn't start out accessible and in fact we are still struggling with this to this day. As such, a new technology that is a regression in terms of accessibility is a step backwards in 2020 and solid accessiiblity support should be a basic goal of any such technology.

Regarding aria roles, it might be possible to improve Flutter Web by using it but ironically the HTML it generates is so inscrutable that I find it hard to understand if that's a simple fix or a complete overhaul. The general idea of Flutter, to ship an exact pixel by pixel replication of the UI across all platforms, seems incompatible with the open and flexible nature of the web.

> are people really expecting CSS restyling tricks and Vimium to work in modern web apps like Google Drive or Discord?

Yes, that's the beauty of the web as an open and standardised platform after all. The fact the people can experience it in a way that best suites their needs, for accessibility reasons or otherwise, is amazing. Flutter Web is a clear regression in this regard.

> (...)is preceded by a large warning stating that this is a beta and(...)

I mentioned this quite early in the piece, but I am unsure if the issues with Flutter are so fundamental that it would be hard to fix without a complete overhaul or if in fact it would be possible at all. If Flutter Web leaves beta generating semantic and accessible HTML I'll be the first to applaud it, but it doesn't seem likely.
I recently wrote a step by step article about this, for people who might not know how, such as family members, et al. I chose ProtonMail (despite also being a FastMail customer) because I’m a bit concerned about the new Australian encryption key escrow mandate (which I assume affects FastMail) and I like ProtonMail’s “don’t store plaintext” approach, even if it does need special client software.

I think a common misunderstanding in this thread, and something not explained in the article, is the difference between internal accounting of animals and publication-level. Labs track animal usage internally in the way you mention, and typically share that information with the university vet, IACUC, etc. but that is simply not useful information to publish.

Despite the possibility of differing opinions in this thread, I think the article has not done a good job of explaining the realities of the process, so anyone here who is not familiar with how animal work gets done is coming in with a purist misunderstanding. Everything is reported (in the US), but not in publications.

Looking at publications alone for animal accounting would be like if I looked at the checking accounts for everyone in a country and wondered where all the money went. Of course it's in savings, investments, cash under the bed... but I only looked in one place. I cannot conclude money is unaccounted for when my search was incomplete by design.

I did the same, but I never got to like Fastmail so I switched back to Gmail after a year. This time I'm on my own domain though so they can close my account all they want, I'd just setup email with another domain on the same address . Would lose my emails in the process, but that's secondary concern.

I've used a secondary Protonmail account lately and it seems decent. I haven't used it enough to make a fair comparison but if you only gave me 5 seconds to choose I'd instantly choose Protonmail over Fastmail. Same pricing (with custom domain) IIRC.

Edit: Then again as a paying customer I might not be as easily locked out compared to a regular Gmail account? No idea.
I just did. It did not hide. Maybe an experiment?
