IIRC, CloudEndure offered migration between different clouds before Amazon bought them - though now they seem to support migration into Amazon only (not surprising).

This never supported a "multi cloud" solution in the sense that things are running on two clouds simultaneously, but it did let you fail-over to a different cloud. Now it only lets you fail-over to Amazon if I read the docs correctly.
Taleb's criticism is inaccurate in any case; it would be a valid criticism of the model if, in a large number of election cycles, the 2016 shape was typical. Because what you'd expect a forecast model to do typically is to get gradually more certain over time, so if it consistently behaved the way the 2016 forecast did, that would be a problem.

But, you'd also expect, in a large number of cycles, to have some where you get patterns where you do start getting runa of information that contradict the impact of prior information, and where you do have the kind of reverses seen in the 2016 cycle.

And, while we don't have enough Presidential cycles to make firm descriptions of what a “typical” cycle would look like with Silver's model, we do know that both 2012 and 2020 look a lot more like you'd expect a typical cycle in a forecast model to look.

Quick demo: go to https://github.com/slimsag/linux/tree/5895e21f3c744ed9829e3a... then try replacing "slimsag" with "torvalds"

These are "known issues" I believe GitHub doesn't intend to fix:

1. With youtube-dl[0] (and probably long before?) we know you can push a commit and view it under the web UI under another user, GitHub hasn't indicated this is a vulnerability at all.

2. Many people know you can impersonate another user through Git email addresses[1] (GPG signing is supposed to solve this, but a lot of people don't use it and even when they do others don't really know they should look for "Verified" in GitHub's web UI.)

Combine these two known-issues and you get a really convincing phishing attack.

I really hope this doesn't become a common-place thing. Hopefully this raises some awareness that, basically, you should not trust any GitHub URL with a commit SHA in it - only trust ones with branch names - because it could be a phishing attack otherwise.

Maybe I didn't do a great job of making my point. You dismiss this as "a hack job piled on top of a hack job" and I gave another example of such a thing (TLS 1.3) which you agree is in fact secure anyway. My point was that this argument is, at best, flimsy.

My point wasn't that magically the existence of TLS 1.3 makes email secure but that TLS 1.3 is "a hack job piled on top of a hack job" too and it's fine.

However, since we're here now: Depending on which browser you use there are two potential answers to your question.

In Firefox the answer is always that Mozilla decided that the CAs which are members of its root trust programme met its requirements. Mozilla's oversight of the Web PKI happens entirely in public. If you have a specific reason to think there's a problem at a CA based in Turkey or Mainland China which is a member of that programme you should raise it.

Otherwise, this decision was made by your OS vendor. If you use a Free Unix then in effect that's still Mozilla since all the popular Free Unix system implicitly or explicitly delegate this to Mozilla, but if it's Google, Apple or Microsoft then that's a matter for them, and they do not have public oversight, good luck with that.

Now, since you mentioned Turkey and Mainland China specifically that would narrow things down a lot (unless you run Windows). Mozilla only trusts Kamu (the Turkish government CA) for Turkish stuff, so, it's unclear what sort of threat you imagine they impose. When I say "Turkish stuff" I mean like the Turkish government's sites, its military, schools that sort of thing, not say a Reddit about Turkey. TURKTRUST which you might have heard of is not trusted at all.

When it comes to the Chinese mainland (as opposed to Hong Kong or Taiwan) there are several more, including GDCA and CFCA but we don't have any particular reason to doubt these authorities behave in accordance with policy. They seem to be exactly what you'd expect, for example CFCA is a financial outfit, and sure enough it issues certificates to various Chinese banks. Would it be a good idea for a foreign critic of China to keep money in those banks? Perhaps not, but that's hardly a problem with the CA.

> That still doesn't encourage supply to increase much.

If you aren't sufficiently incentivized to increase production by knowing you're now guaranteed that every piece you produce will sell at the everyday price, as quickly as you can ship it, then it doesn't seem like your everyday price was rational to begin with. In such circumstances, I don't think it's safe to assume that adding steep price gouging will produce any marginal increase in the likelihood of a producer increasing production, on top of whatever production increases are already going to happen just as a result of instantly selling out of all existing stock.

But all that is assuming the gouging happens at the production end of the supply chain. If the gouging is happening at the penultimate step of the supply chain and the profits mostly don't make it back to the manufacturer, then price gouging can't do much to incentivize higher production.

> natural predators such as possums, ferrets, stoats and rats

As it says later, these are all introduced pests, and they're being eradicated for good reason. Peacocks will probably follow in due course, but they're not killing our native birds.

The natural predator that could have helped was the largest eagle known to have existed, but they've been extinct for centuries (after their prey species, moas (!) and other large birds, were hunted to extinction by people): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haast's_eagle

This article is mostly for the headline, I think. We have far worse introduced pests, e.g. rabbits do a lot more harm to farmers than peacocks.
FWIW, I didn’t say that I don’t make mistakes. Perhaps you misread my comment.

I agree with you, but this depends on the language. Some languages and libraries take more liberties with the length of identifiers, the amount of abstraction layers, and maybe more. Java is the classic example where using a plain text editor is really a liability; I can use C++ without any editor support and be fast. But I'm not sure what this really depends on. (Disclaimer: my argument is flawed because I know C++ well and not Java.)

Unfortunately, sophisticated tax advice simply does not scale down to the level that would make it applicable to most companies/people. This type of advice is heavily fact-specific, and if you create a complicated legal structure, you can't take your eye off the ball for a minute. Otherwise you can end up blowing the whole thing up, or worse.

I would note that the world you describe (where people have tax tricks just like corporations) used to exist. Before the tax reform bill of 1986, doctors/lawyers/dentists/etc. were able to take advantage of tax shelters that greatly reduced their wage income, without actually incurring any real losses. These passive loss tax shelters were heavily marketed by accounting firms because of their general applicability. But in 1986 they were eliminated by a tax reform bill that outlawed perceived abuses and lowered tax rates.

The way I read it, it seems to claim that github will just "insert" a known object with that hash into the new repository when it's pushed, though I'm somewhat confused as to how this would work, or how the submodule trick even adds the hash to the commit log in the first place.

EDIT: I read the article again and couldn't find any of that, so I must have read that in a comment here on HN instead.
Did you miss the absolutely brutal lockdown they imposed on everyone? I am staying far away from all countries that treated their citizen like prisoners until the pandemic is over — and I have forever lost respect for quite a few countries due to this.

I had the misfortune of getting stuck in Singapore on a 3-day business trip when things got locked down, and it turned into a 4 month miserable ordeal of house arrest and quarantines before I was able to make it back to my much more reasonable home of Hong Kong. Truly, from the bottom of my heart, fuck Singapore's lockdown.

> Minor addendum, Silver altered his model to become more certain as the election drew near after 2016. In effect, it changed from a “what if the election were today?” Model to a “what will the outcome of the election on date ___ be?” Model just for this cycle.

False. Silver's headline model has always been a “what will the outcome on election day” model. (Silver has a secondary “what of the election were held today model”, as well, which was published as an explicitly alternative model in previous cycles, with explicit notes about the difference in what it did from the main model, and is still run and occasionally referenced but not published.)

If it can be undone in minutes, it isn't much of a decision. A service that can be enabled or canceled on a whim is unnecessary.

We have been receiving many collaboration offers from leading global corporations in every key area. In collaboration with some of them, we have started working on the next-generation products. Our new authentication method has been highly evaluated by various significant partners/investors, including 5 sovereign wealth funds, as our technology perfectly fits the Smart City era. Please also visit: https://16lab.net/a-message-from-the-ceo/

Work tenure (Full-time / Part-time / Interns etc.) and joining dates are negotiable. We are planning to ask qualified candidates to work for us remotely until travel restrictions are lifted. Junior positions will be opened later. Please send your cv to jobs@16lab.net.
This is a great post! The setup could be clearer: I found it a little difficult to follow (during “a real number x … this value which I will denote f … treat the 31-bit value as an unsigned integer u”) what each of the named variables was intended to refer to, and formatting the 31-bit number as 32 bits threw me off too. Nothing insurmountable but I could feel my brain stumbling before I got to the clever part.

Yes, true enough, it does happen occasionally, but it's pretty rare (and usually there are other ways to deal with it: using less or similar tools, or just running your massive single-line JSON thing through jq first). And my point was exactly what you're saying: many text editors choke on files like this, so it's not such a huge indictment of ox that it chokes on it as well.

However, ox clearly performs poorly even when your text files aren't massive single lines, so it doesn't really matter: ox basically can't handle files like this regardless of line distribution.
Yes, because you should compare to how a similar DirectX 12, OpenGL 4.6 or Vulkan 1.1 like demo would achieve in FPS.

The Two Scales of DevOps
Where can we learn how to do this?
Writing Non-Sucky Copy
That is more or less the approach that I would recommend to modern microservices, I would advise someone to read about domain-driven design and I would ask them to pay very careful attention to the notion of bounded contexts, the idea of a namespace for business level words. If you build your microservices partitioned at bounded context level, and you vehemently resist the idea of a remote procedure call—“under no circumstances are you giving me orders, you are maybe telling me about a state change that has happened to you, but don't you dare tell me what to do and when,” those two principles can guide a decent architecture. Have a message broker. Do “event storming” with non-technical users of the system to get a better model of the domain. Stuff like that.

And yet, I will contradict myself to say that actually, microservices have the potential to be that original vision of object-oriented programming from the 1960s. The fundamental idea is very cheap computational nodes that only interact by passing messages around, with the idea that a recursive design inspired by cells and biology, will be much more successful than traditional programming where you try to separate data structures from the procedures that operate on them. If your microservice has setters and getters, you're missing the point of this original vision of OOP. You could certainly build a system with 40,000 of these live, but probably you would not have 40,000 different chunks of source code behind them.

But reducing the energy consumption drastically is not a good idea either as this is tightly coupled with the welfare of humantiy (ok there is some potential here which needs to be tapped in but Jevons paradox is waiting for it).

> I'm not quite sure what you're saying here. Are you claiming that you can push a commit to userA/project and then view it under the Github web interface for userB/project (assuming one repo is forked from the other)?

Very close to that, yes. There's actually just one more step you need to take: you have to also open a pull request from userA/project to userB/project. As a convenience feature, GitHub automatically makes PR commits available under a special namespace. You can try it yourself with any pull request that comes from another repo--just `git fetch origin pulls/<PR #>/head.

Since the foreign commit is there in this special 'pulls' namespace, it can be viewed in the web UI by its commit ID. That's how people are adding youtube-dl to github's DMCA notice repo; they're just opening a PR containing youtube-dl's commit history.
