Buildpacks have been in the industry for many years (thanks to cloud foundry) but it doesn't really scale. For simple things, sure they are good enough but more often than not you want to your application to be packed in a special way and you end up putting more efforts than using simple Dockerfiles
If I understood the NYT article correct, the Democrats are put left, among other things, because of support for climate measures. Fun fact, the CSU, as far right as you get in Germany when you ignore the AfD, is also supporting measures to fight climate change now. The CSU also kind of opposes gay marriage, are among the more extremer views regarding abortion. And support public health care. They do not fight to make abortion illegal so. No do they with gay marriage. I see that as them being more "left" than anything I see coming from the GOP at the moment. And the CSU, as I said, considered the most right / conservative of our mainstream parties.

Bernie on the other hand would fit in perfectly well with the SPD, our social democrats. "Die Linke", the leftest one in the article, is a joint party of the SED (the former DDRs government party), some communists from western Germany and the far left wing of the SPD. They are as much left as the AfD is right.

I do see a lot of parallels between the AfD and the right wing of the GOP so. Especially regarding immigrants, muslims, the Covid pandemic and views of family values.
It's always funny to see people mentioning hypergraphs in relation to knowledge graphs, this is exactly what we do at Grakn Labs (disclaimer: work there) https://grakn.ai

For others: we're also starting to look into ML on knowledge graphs, check out our initial work at https://github.com/graknlabs/kglib :D
Yes.

The mental and physical requirements coupled with seeing the weekly changes in the mirror were damn near the only thing that kept me sane over a busy period of work, combined with lockdown, combined with my wife being away for over three months due to work/family illness and unable to see each other due to travel restrictions.

I also went from an unhealthy BMI, high but not yet dangerously so cholesterol levels to nearly stage lean (have since raised my weight to a saner level) and having excellent blood work all round to the point of my doctor being completely astonished. (Note, I did not take any androgenic substances, so I wasn’t expecting much other than positive changes in my blood work)
What open source gives you is an audit trail, which is helpful but not sufficient. You still need to be able to trace malicious code to actual individuals. Then you need the ability to punish those individuals, ideally through criminal prosecution.
Yes, I know these excuses - people around me are parroting them daily. You've just proven the racism I am speaking about, and why Slovakia (or Czechia, Poland, etc) is really bad place for Arabs.

Vietnamese are tolerated because they are perceived to work hard. That is racism, and it still leads to negative outcomes - for example dating a Vietnamese is often considered bad, people are still trying to not have children in the same classes as Vietnamese children, Vietnamese medical professionals are avoided, white people are preferred for flat rentals, etc; your ignorance doesn't mean they're not discriminated. The fact that people here don't even distinguish between Vietnamese and other Asian nationalities speaks for itself too.

The story of Romani people is also way more complex than you make it out, start here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romani_people_in_Czechoslovaki...

BTW one would think that the petty crimes the Romani people are associated with would be more acceptable than large scale drug dealing associated with the Vietnamese - but who would look for logic in racism.

Arabs are perceived negatively because they're associated with Islam, which is associated with terrorism - even though the only terrorist attack that ever happened around here was carried out by a white supremacist. Many Arabs are Christians or atheists but that doesn't stop people from immediately labelling them as terrorists and ostracizing them from services, jobs, flat rentals, etc based on their skin color. Women in a hijab or burka are often attacked, as if every Arab woman had bombs under her clothing. Tell me please, what did they do to justify this, and how should they "start on their end", and why?

Racism is so bad here (CZ, SK, PL, ...) that it has its place in the parliament and senate.

The biggest problem are not the rural-living low income racists, but people like you who spread (normalizing it) how they're so tolerant and thus not racist - the truth is that even if you thought about a person positively based on their race it's still racism. More generally, as long as people think about individuals in terms of groups connected by bodily features, place of birth, etc there will be a problem - and there is a huge problem in Slovakia, not just racism but nationalism too (please tell me how Ukrainians are good only for manual labor...).

I am white, the only thing to do on my end is reducing the racist attitude of other white people. It's funny that you spoke about abuse in that same sentence, btw.

I can imagine a periodic thread here where one could ask for, let's say 'unrestricted' feedback from the community.
The 21,000 dead here in Canada would like to argue that it is much, much better but, well, they can't.

I literally can not believe you are arguing it's not better.
Where do you get this idea that contracts guaranteed a certain number of deliveries? The contract the EU signed said best effort everywhere.

Why would AZ agree to a contract to guarantee certain deliveries on a brand new vaccine with unproven manufacturing, on a non-profit basis? It doesn't make any sense.

The other thing which isn't mentioned is the UK's deliveries were also cut, probably even more severely than the EU ones. The UK was originally meant to get many tens of millions of doses by the end of 2020, in reality it was far far less.
For clarification, F=MV but kinetic energy = 1/2 MV^2. So to use 1/Nth the mass you need N times as much velocity. Which that takes 1/N * (N^2) = N times as much energy.

Aka 1/100 th the mass = 100 times as much total energy.
But then your C++ code will grow to be multiple times bigger than Python. And you will spend even more time on implementation.
Are people capable of enough nuance to distinguish between issues that large tech firms are likely trustworthy on and issues that they aren't?

When they stand to make billions from breaking my trust I'm sceptical. When they stand to make a penny and ruin their entire product, then no I' not.

The problem in question here, that rogue developers sell out their product to third parties, is not an issue that Facebook, Google etc have. They have every incentive to keep their software secure.
Unless I’m mistaken, google don’t actually respect robots.txt any more. They recommend the use of some meta tag instead, from memory.

I don't think that's correct (but I'm willing to be corrected by an expert).

I believe the immune response is mainly triggered by the spike protein. If the spike protein of the variant is different enough to cause a degree of vaccine escape, then the spike protein of the vaccine should be different enough to not get immediately cleared from the body.

This is based on what I've understood from listening to interviews with prof. Sarah Gilbert, head of the Oxford team.
Fastmail is Australia based, wouldn't that pose a risk with regards to backdoors?
This is not very convincing. Top 1% save 40%, so they spend 60%. In order for a consumption tax to work, it would need to be in the 30-40% range. So you'd be capturing 60%*35% = 21% of income. Currently incomes tax is 27% of income for the top 1% in the US.

Add on top capital gains and you're collecting the same or more than you are now.
> Parties also send a candidate-list to the elections body, before the elections. 50% of the council seats are determined by apportioning within these lists. This is meant to be fairer on smaller parties who might otherwise not get enough votes to get a councillor in.

This sounds very similar to the AMS system used in Scotland and Germany.

I don’t think that’s the case. Look around the world and you’ll see that as a country has become more prosperous that their meat consumption has increased. I don’t think it’s because people suddenly became more “manly”. It’s because of a simple fact: most humans love meat.

Food is more than a personal identity. It’s a major part of people’s culture globally and meat plays a primary role in many cultures. I think most people would eat more meat if they had the means to.

Only about 3.5% of Americans are vegetarian. Designing policy that favors this group would be ridiculous. Subsidizing meat and democratizing access to it is good policy since nearly everyone benefits from it.

Saying that I hope “plant meat” continues to improve and finds a market outside the novelty it mainly is today. But this can’t be forced on people.
Believe it or not but not everybody believes that human rights like privacy are always optional when lives are at stake. Ever heard of the phrase "the end doesn't justify the means"?

I played hundreds of hours of Soldat back in my school days. Almost exclusively in realistic mode. There was a great community, I think realsold.org, truly a flashback to think about it now.

I think it's great that they opensourced it, although it somewhat faded not by the lack of development but by a slow and steady reduction in players (at least, as far as I remember, in realistic mode).

It's an amazing game. Ruger was overpowered though.

If you're interested in graphs as an ostensibly intuitive way of representing knowledge, I'd like to point you to a paper by W.A.

It is not a meme. You tell me what did Google achieve under Sundar in the last 6 years? The only "noteworthy" things he did is fostering a hostile environment by firing employees who spoke out against discrimination, and fighting against unionization.

Well, frankly speaking, as an individual or a small company, you do not matter much, especially in comparison to the cost to get the problem fixed. While an organization grows larger, it has to employ lots of processes which are obviously not perfect to make things work. When it grows even larger, it has to make changes to existing processes, abolish some processes become no longer appropriate and introduce new processes over existing processes to serve their business better. Unavoidably more and more automation are introduced and eventually AI. All those changes seem to be really minor and clear and works in most of cases. Yep, I meant most cases, not all cases. Then suddenly, something really should work per everything standard and process stopped working and no one really knows why. So here comes the question, if you are the decision maker, your system works for 99.999999% maybe even 99.999999999% of your customers but not for those 1 maybe 10 customers, are you going to spend $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to get it fixed?
> But somehow accounts get unbanned if they get enough attention... so this does not seem to be a problem.

Having 10 highly paid long-tenured engineering employees who can look at small parts of a users account data is clearly better than having 10,000 call center workers be able to access user private data.

The end result is high profile incidents get handled in a way that it would be too risky to do for everyone.

Even with the small pool of engineers, there are incidents[1] where user data is used inappropriately. Would you make this pool larger?

Uninstall Google Chrome right now
A few hours ago, Chrome started serving an ad in the bottom of the homepage for me: https://i.imgur.com/MDCIA8n.png

The link in question is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcsSc2iksC0 , which is a promo for Youtube Premium, the paid version of Youtube. You can see the frustration this has caused in the top comments of the video.

This appears to be served to a fraction of the users, possibly a low % AB test and/or a geotargetted campaign.

It is egregious on so many levels and the implications are immense. Apparently Google thinks it is ok to serve you with ads in the application level, highjacking the homepage that you yourself have customized.

"Do no evil"

Laughable.
During the last 3 years I've had the pleasure of using Bazel's rules_docker to generate all my container images (https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_docker).

In a nutshell, rules_docker is a set of build rules for the Bazel build system (https://bazel.build). What's pretty nice about these rules is that they don't rely on a Docker daemon. They are rules that directly construct image tarballs that you can either load into your local Docker daemon or push to a registry.

What's nice about this approach is that image generation works on any operating system. For example, even on a Mac or Windows system that doesn't have Docker installed, you're able to build Linux containers. They are also fully reproducible, meaning that you often don't need to upload layers when pushing (either because they haven't changed, or because some colleague/CI job already pushed those layers).

I guess rules_docker works fine for a variety of programming languages. I've mainly used it with Go, though.

> It's not a big deal. I've had a .so domain for a decade and have only had to use a different email a couple times

That is exactly the point krageon is making. If you have a .so domain (or .earth like me), you need to have a backup at least, so you can still access things like a normal human. My @gmail.com address have been used for this, but seems I'm gonna have to get yet another domain with a normal tld so I can stop using the gmail one for when .earth is not correctly accepted.
> Apps that offer what should have been offered by the OS vendor in the first place.

The questions are: how do you decide is necessary and how do you present it to the user? Different people have different needs and making every should have been feature visible ends up making every other feature less visible. That may be fine if you're developing software for a specialist who will take the time to learn a particular application which is relevant to them, but it's a drawback when you're creating software for a general audience since only a handful of enthusiasts will take the time to learn the software.

More than that - when my now fiancee proposed to me I was completely surprised by it, and literally couldn't process the question for a good couple of minutes. Thankfully she decided to leave me to it for that time and by the time she got back I accepted, but it occurred to me that a proposal is itself the only time you're asked to make a life-changing decision by surprise, and answer it there and then without being able to spend any time considering what the correct decision is.
Oh ... well that's an interesting way to tackle it!
Look at how amazing and simply the Mirai 2 is:

https://global.toyota/pages/news/images/2020/12/09/1200/005....

compared to:

https://468y981o84o43v2wo2600a0gcj-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/w...

And one of these cars is incredibly fast, the other is a not a performance car. I can't find good data on Mirai 2 but I think the S is a considerably bigger car.

At least in comparison between the Mirai and the Model 3, the Model 3 is lighter.

Of course, the reality is that batteries are getting lighter fast.

> Yeah, I have dozens of those around. But you know what, more battery cars also need those so it’s not like we will be removing these soon.

Again, the simply fact is fuel cells are considerably less efficient. Therefore you need more of them.

Element.io / Matrix.org | REMOTE (EU timezones preferred, though not required)| Full-time Matrix is an open standard for decentralized secure communications. Matrix’s mission is to make messaging as open as email.
For those who do not know us, data sovereignty and end-to-end encryption seem to be really potent differentiators especially for governments and civic institutions. The French government has a massive Matrix deployment under the name "Tchap", and the German military began rolling out a similar initiative called "BwMessenger" in November: https://esut.de/en/2020/11/meldungen/24138/matrix-messenger. On the opposite end of the spectrum you've got Mozilla, who replaced their IRC network with open, federated Matrix and saw greater far greater community engagement as a result.

Now is an excellent time to join the team as we try to make a genuine challenge to centralised, walled garden messaging technology.

Our open roles:-

- Engineering Manager/Director, Web https://apply.workable.com/elementio/j/5BF802E8D7/

- Senior Web Developer https://apply.workable.com/elementio/j/39759B827A/

- iOS Developer https://apply.workable.com/elementio/j/3BB922A77E/

However, whatever your background, feel free to contact me via https://app.element.io on @neilj:matrix.org I am always keen to chat with engineers of all disciplines about the project.
My understanding is that while the EU contract said something like "best effort" the UK negotiated stricter language for their contract, which meant that when AZ lawyers interpreted both contracts together they concluded that they had to priorities the UK.
Why? The current mainstream narrative bothers me in several ways. First, you can often hear that racism against white people is not racism. Even the term "reverse-racism" was invented for that purpose! Second, Americans have a unique history and relationship between black and white populations, and they try to project the same relationship on other nations (there was a famous article by a black Brit who essentionally said, please don't involve black people in other countries into this).

I would hope HN is one of the few places where we can talk about sensitive issues like these in a civilized way, without microaggressions and trying to look at it objectively. I don't mind downvotes although I prefer rational arguments.
The third largest party in SA, the EFF, uses racism frequently.
Its rising popularity is a disturbing proof that racism in SA is probably growing.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_Freedom_Fighters

>Since its establishment the EFF has made a number of controversial racially or ethnically based statements about a number of South African minority groups. The EFF is widely criticised for inciting and perpetuating racism.[130][98][131] The EFF is known for staging controversial public protests aimed at increasing political support by driving race division and intolerance. Party practices have been defined as "fascist". [132][133][134][135][136][137][138] This approach has proved persuasive to a largely disenfranchised young black youth in South Africa who are mired by poverty, unemployment and inequality, where all minority groups, in particular whites, are singled out by party propaganda as the sole benefactors and drivers of inequality.
