“we are, while it may sound overwrought, committing acts of violence and domination against those who do not buy into the manifest destiny of the Internet and telecommunications networks”

It sounds overwrought because it is overwrought. So why write it...you aren’t orating at the Forum. Take off your toga and put on some sweats.

The argument for local regs on outdoor telecom equipment is stronger here because towers are points and not lines. Lines are easy to disrupt and those disruptions are expensive, so Federal preemption power is important. Seems like the rollout of 5G could be done more slowly, prioritizing the places with greatest need first.

And where are these places and what are those needs? I haven’t heard a compelling use case for 5G universal service. Are we in a position of bandwidth congestion in any US urban area, even Manhattan? Surveillance? Everything I’ve read justifying 5G sounds less like a list of obvious advantages, and more like “we just gotta”. There weren’t such concerns with 4G because the benefits were self-evident.

Oracle offered freedom from the perspective of rhel, and I used it.

I actually was granted IPO shares because of the things I wrote two decades ago.

I think there was a fundamental misjudgment in what you have done. Oracle is more expensive on most tiers, but offers a $100 support level (forum-only, with updates) that undercuts all rhel agreements.

Had you offered this support level, and advocated it (as I said) with gdm and CLI advertisements, you might have kept a great many in the fold.

You did not do this, and now Oracle updated their repo conversion for CentOS 8.

It is not too late. You should reconsider.
Moreover it's hard to figure out which Ocaml version is Rescript on? Last i checked it was on 4.06, Do they backport any features, bugfixes?

Pretty good article. As someone who has recently started using Terraform a fair bit (in AWS), I have to agree that it leaves me thinking "surely there's a better way". I agree, it's not code (any more than HTML is), and I agree, it does inevitably get heavily copy-pasted and become hard to maintain.

But I'm not sure that the article presents an alternative, at least not one that's fundamentally different. The conclusion says "hint: Ansible + Terraform". Ok, that's a start, but it's still just "config + config". Where's the code?

I find that very interesting.
But that's not the point, that's not an example to be picked apart. The point is if there's a less complex way to solve the problem, then it's still causing non-essential (aka accidental) complexity. Even if the simpler solution is ugly, the more complex one is still introducing non-essential complexity. If we claim that every single thing we do with the code is part of the "real world problem", then we're throwing up our hands in the air and giving up on the problem of complexity of software. It's a naive and simple justification that's very comfortable for us, but doesn't amount to much. I really recommend reading the No Silver Bullet paper and Mythical Man Month. Fred Brooks explains those things very well.
The best proof that we went to the moon is that we left mirrors there that we use to bounce lasers off of to detect the distance to the moon.
Out of curiosity, what noise cancelling headphones do you have that lets you sleep through the night on a long haul?

My Airpods Pro are great but they only have a battery life of 4-5 hours per charge (20 hours in case, but you have to wake up to charge them).

My Bose QC 15 over ear headphones can stay on much longer (> 20 hours of battery life) and have great noise cancellation, but as soon as I lean my head to either of the side headrests on the seat, the noise cancellation "leaks". I've never been able to sleep on a plane with my Bose QCs.

The best solution I've found so far have been plain-old ear plugs ($5).
When I refer to complexity there are dimensions aside from time to prod. You also have to consider the added risk of introducing all of these additional vendors and codepaths into your application stack. For some, this is not a concern at all. For others, myself included, there are practical concerns regarding minimizing attack profile for the types of applications we need to deliver.

I really enjoy being able to tell our clients (finance industry) that our software is entirely on first-party Microsoft dependencies. It makes dealing with audits so much easier. We have clients that will scan our servers and bug us about specific DLLs that show up on the various enterprisey security scanning tools. We got hit with an audit on one of our 3rd party DLLs and had to spend a week rewriting for a compliant implementation. This kind of thing can kill us at our scale, so we don't even risk it.

There will be those who rally against writing everything in house, but there are some serious advantages to it, especially if/when your team actually gets good at doing it. We can crank out a fairly complex dashboard in 1-2 hours using Blazor and our existing platform services. Add in another 5-10 minutes for a code review, 5 minutes for a build, and then its in all required environments within 2-3 more minutes (total). All of this managed via a system that is part of our application's codebase. So, you can certainly get some fun numbers going either way you attack the puzzle. Difference is - In my case, if I want to make a very nuanced change to the behavior of a build/deploy/hosting item, I could quickly locate the code and make the required adjustments. If you need Kubernetes to do something magical that its not quite prepared for yet, you could spend a long time screwing around fruitlessly.

It is not obvious at all. There is no evidence at all of a general trend toward planned obsolescence. This is another layman's talking point.

The Reddit comment has a link to a chart showing the average life of a car every year, showing how it has increased, and it has plenty of details on how car parts have evolved to be more durable, safer and easier to repair.

Yes it is alleging a conspiracy, and you're claiming Economics in general has been coopted by it. This is no different than anti-vaxxerism.

I would really hope there is more to this. Social media companies are private entities, and as such can be as deliberately, or not, biased and full of censorship against other persons or groups as much as they want. More so, they can openly declare such bias against their best interests without risk of immediate consequences thanks to Section 230. They are legally protected by law.

I really wish the current administration would stop crying about the big bad world and how unfair it is. This only appeals to really insecure people. If they really wanted to “fix” the problem the appropriate regulatory body could provide new regulation against activity not already protected by legislation.

The terminology associated with chess challenges [to use a neutral term] is unfortunate.

"Chess problem" is a term of art that refers to an artificial composed position with a unique solution that is constructed to both be a challenge to the solver and have aesthetic value. They often have constraints on the solution such as that White must deliver checkmate in two moves (three ply). This is what I assume you're referring to.

A position from an actual game (or that easily could have been) that demonstrates a tactic (or combination of them) is generally known as a "chess puzzle", largely because the term "chess problem" was already squatted on.

Somewhere in between the two is the "study", which is a constructed position, less artificial than a chess problem but still very carefully made to have a unique solution that walks a tightrope and generally requires absolutely exact calculation rather than working by general tactical principles.
Wait, a 40ms bug that isn't due to Nagle’s algorithm? Is that even possible?
I expected something about TCP_NODELAY and Nagle's Algorithm, a recurring theme on HN [1][2]. I'm left surprised, but I also can't shake the idea that that arbitrary sleep might just be tailored after TCP.

Go to a stable. Horses urinate and defecate at will. They dont normally shower or brush their teeth. There is a smell, but its not punch you in the face bad. Humans can smell really bad on all fronts, but noseblindness is a thing and probably for this reason. You really only smell exaggerated odor after a few minutes. When I was a student at Texas A&M I worked for the on campus car rental agency. The worst place on campus was the chicken refuse area, and it smelled bad- like mile away bad. Even there, you would stop smelling it after a few minutes only to catch a wiff or two a few hours later. Point being, it probably smelled awful, but not for long.
> Except, you know, the whole point of VLIW

It's really indicative of the problem I'm talking about that so many people think the options are either a standard, Intel Core-style OoO or Itanium-style VLIW. Not only is VLIW a massive range of potential things, and Itanium is not the natural implementation of it, but I never even said we should go with VLIWs! I'm personally more enamoured with CG-OoO style hierarchical reordering, though were rewriting the world possible I'd do something that exposed more of that to software (probably microthread style).

> Provide real examples of how Itanium could have been done better.

Although Itanium seems like a dead-end strategy to me, three things it got really wrong were:

* software data misprediction recovery,

* overly large register files,

* compiler target locks in uarch decisions.

(Please mind that it's been a while since I looked at the Itanium ISA.)

The Mill is sort of what Itanium would be with all the rough edges sanded over, though it's sort of a moot point since the Mill will never exist outside of talks.

Again, static schedules aren't the approach I'd advocate for, since there are some things they just can't do.
I feel bad for the people that will inevitably need to cancel their time off work in one of the worst years on record to be able to meet this 45 day deadline.
I think it's interesting that people forget anything network based tends to unwind just as fast as it winds up. Decorrelation (e.g. low viral coefficient) can be antifragile. If everyone moves to your city for a different reason, it is more resilient to downturns than if everyone moves to your city for the same reason and conditions change. Facebook may unwind for the same reason it was successful: the lack of privacy.
I agree with trying to build this, and with what you say about mechanism - but I don't agree it's step one. This is a prod, a reminder, it reminds people "Do the thing we trained you to do" but it's a mistake to rely on it without the accompanying policy about what they ought to do.

These types of hook are brittle. If you already knew you were supposed to do it the way I wrote, you get a hook failure, you say "D'oh" and you do it properly. But if you aren't trained to do anything in particular, this type of hook is a behavioural branch. Maybe it's 0845, your mentor just arrived, the perfect time to ask what the diagnostic means. "You need to use a dedicated key store, let me show you" she says and you just learned an important thing.

But maybe it's 1845, you're the last one in the office. You promised to raise a PR for tomorrow, but the hook fails. You try some things, and eventually discover that it hides well enough if split into four strings. You commit, click to raise the PR and go home.

And the person who reads that PR will see immediately tomorrow it's unacceptable because it has an obfuscated API key, but alas if it's a real working key that's too late.
What you are forgetting is that the military is full of people too. Any uprising large enough to be legitimate would also include a portion of the military with access to those arms.

That’s not at all true. The 9100A was a descendant of a prototype developed by Tom Osborne in 1964. There was a later lawsuit from Olivetti that certain features (especially the mag card) overlapped their 1965 P101 patents, which was settled for ~$900K. No insult to Olivetti’s great achievements but this was hardly cause and effect.

The result is not the same either. The described infanticide serves a goal of undoing other gene’s reproduction. Abortion is a smarter form of not spending resources on a weak/dead-end offspring (or just throwing it out of nest), if you want these analogies.

Kaggle comps don't, to my knowledge, involve tasks like:
- Convincing someone to give you data.

- Convincing them to spend great effort into changing their data collection and labelling practices.

- Explaining why a particular technique was used and why it is correct.

- Explaining why they can't expect magic from 'big data'.

- Making models that are robust and easily maintained, vs fragile spaghetti.

But I don't think being good at kaggle implies being bad at data science soft skills. Technical skills are probably weakly correlated -- that's my prior, it would be good to see a study.

Why assume that this is the kind of application that would be used? Do you really think it's so uncommon that someone might have the seeds of these feelings and really rather that they just go away? If it's something that can be handled therapeutically and allow the person to live in the skin they were born in without dysphoria, doesn't that seem like something an awful lot of people would probably consider, especially if it's not invasive?
My Kindle says “2GB gratis de 3GB” (in Spanish) which doesn’t make any sense, instead it should say “2GB libres de 3GB” (2GB free of 3GB).

I can’t understand how the most popular reading device would have that kind of mistake in one of the most common languages in the world.
Coding is social, because most code needs to be maintained by more than one person (over it’s lifetime). And if the code is so brilliant that only few people can understand it, it becomes a maintenance headache over the longer haul.

The same is arguably true for many professions and walks of life.

If you can make your work serviceable by more people, it becomes less expensive to do so. And in many (not all) cases, that’s a superior life-time value of your work.
