For what it's worth, there's some limited ability to share memory (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe...), though you can only share binary data, not other types, and it only works in secure and cross-origin isolated contexts, due to security concerns.

That being said, at first glance it doesn't look like Clio is using this, instead it's passing messages as you suggest. It might actually be interesting to use SharedArrayBuffers as a compilation target, as they're probably hard to use correctly manually. That being said, WebAssembly threads (https://github.com/WebAssembly/threads) may be more appropriate for this.

For completeness, Workers can also transfer memory (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Transferabl...) with less security restrictions. They can also collaborate by accessing a shared database (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/IndexedDB_A...) though this is obviously slower than shared memory.
Is rsync.net related to rsync the project?
I've used rsync.net in the past- it's essentially "filesystem as a service." You, the customer, use it to back your own software that handles the encryption and replication. Their website has some how-to guides for some common software, or you can roll your own with the rsync protocol.

Notably, their website only claims transfer encryption, not encryption at rest. You can of course encrypt your files yourself with your own keys.

unfortunately not, for real superresolution (i.e. resolving below the diffraction limit of light) all the current methods require expensive (and very dangerous) lasers and microscopes with all sorts of optics widgets, mirrors and computers.
Lots of 'high resolution' imaging things are available for cameras, as well as some AI systems that will make up data for you so it looks better too!
You still haven't answered my question; how do you update? Yes on one server. If you ssh into that server or poke around on it, how do you rebuild it if aws kills your instance, or if your data center catches fire?

Re; version pinning that's cool - both methods work.

For updates, of course it's automated that's the whole point.

> That's ubuntu, not debian. Very different approach to non-security updates.

Actually this is a really interesting point; I don't want to be a sysadmin, I want to run my applications. I don't want to be aware of the platform differences. I actually didn't know that ubuntu and debian handled updates differently. They both expose the same interface to package management. Features like that are exactly why developers like me should be deploying docker containers to DO's app platforms for $5 a month, and not running VPS's
I would very much agree it is not a systematic way of tackling bias. That's why it creates bias. ;-)

I agree with this. It's why a hackintosh has never appealed to me.

However, in this case, the tweak I needed to do to the mac pro was so trivial as to be (essentially) cost-free. No need to alter the installer, etc.

It pleases me to be (re)using this machine for over 12 years now - especially given what a triumph of workstation design these mac pros were ...
That robot's glitch was ahead of its time. Today we would accept that the guy's guy's necktie, or some random shadow/shape in the window, triggered an edge case in the AI's gun recognition neural network. Then, it felt more like a glitch that left the subject_has_gun flag always on.

People are doing this to themselves. Stop buying their shitty software, and see how quickly they start to fix it.

I don't understand why people are so obsessed with Adobe, since their software nowadays isn't that good. There are tons of alternatives out there that work better and do the same thing, if not more.

Is it just laziness/reluctance to learn something new?
One thing I've always wondered, and somebody on here must know the answer :) When a HDD is manufactured, how are the disk platters initially seeded? Are they just liberally splattered with material & the tracks are created on first write, or are the tracks pre-created? If so, is it a stamping method, akin to making a vinyl record or CD?

Philanthropy is one of the greatest evils of our time.
Philanthropists steal money from workers via monetary inflation and financial schemes.
Then they give away a tiny portion of it to the world's poorest. In the meantime their financial schemes squeeze everyone in the middle; those who actually produce all of the world's economic value.

In this case, they steal money from working humans and give it to a bunch of gorillas who should have been left alone in the jungle in the first place.

Not surprising that many of these displaced working humans turn to poaching and other illegal activities to make a living. Their salaries are constantly inflating away, they can't save anything on normal salaries. They can't start their own businesses, they can't compete against those who have access to the money printers.

Presumably something like "Linux", where although it's owned by Linus Torvalds, there is no single bully organization that gets to use it to the exclusion of others. So, the opposite of something like Mozilla, where Mozilla Foundation owns the trademark, but there's a for-profit vendor that also gets to use it in exchange for kickbacks to the Mozilla Foundation, no one else in the community can operate under that banner, and they have to make it abundantly clear that their work is not endorsed by Mozilla.

> Is that really true?

Oh yes. For instance, LuaTeX doesn't print combining diacritics correctly unless you painstakingly swap the underlying codepoints around in some unspecified order (to be determined through trial and error) that doesn't match _any_ of the Unicode normalization forms.
> If we're serious about going after companies like Apple, we need new tools.

If their market share is declining year-over-year then why do we need to go after them? It seems like the market is telling them they need to change their ways. Or maybe they're happy being a niche player catering to a niche user who's fine with the status quo. After all, those customers who are happy with the status quo in and of themselves comprise a market segment. Besides which Microsoft has the wherewithal to re-enter the market anytime they wish.
What sort of calculation is that? Let's for a moment disregard the fact that banks do much more than just transactions, let's also ignore that there is more then the transaction energy in bitcoin (there are also people working for the miners, producing the hardware etc). Just the comparison between the number of transactions of the banking system (including credit cards) to the number of bitcoin transactions should tell you how different the scales are. There were around daily 400k bitcoin transactions. There were 100 Million credit card transactions per day in the US alone. That would mean if we were to transition to use crypto currencies as our main financial system we'd use more than all the energy we produce worldwide just for bitcoin. So bitcoin looks even worse after doing a bit more of a comparison.

> This requires him to be aware of each pattern/“bias” in the data, which he isn’t, which is the reason we use the algos in the first place.

That's not strictly true. In a lot of cases you start out oblivious to biases in the data, and then when you evaluate the model you notice problems.

But your point about obliviousness to bias is exactly what I'm speaking towards. One might be oblivious to bias that aligns with your own biases, but notice bias that conflicts with it.

Simple: almost everybody I know uses an iPhone.

Without an iPhone, I can't FaceTime with my family and friends. Without an iPhone, I'm discriminated against among young people because of green text in iMessage. Without an iPhone I can't do account sharing for all the digital things my family uses.

And those sorts of reasons are just from me as a consumer. As a developer, more than half my customers (in the USA) have an iPhone. I literally cannot do business or provide apps to them without going through Apple.
As an independent who has both democratic party and liberalism as my part of my makeup I have to say this overcompensation from the far left is nuts. It's some kind of white man's guilt complex. I believe everyone is created equal and we have to always be diligent about keeping that at the forefront, but the terms master/slave and their ilk (in english) were around looooong before the whole white/black slave travesty happened. The same with white/black list. Until I hear some prominent black leaders sayign the community at large has an issue with it then I don't really care what some blogger or guilt stricken white people say. It's overcompensation and cancel culture all rolled into one.
I'm not sure where you're getting these figures from.

> In response to this pressure, many open-core or dual-license companies, including Confluent, MongoDB, Cockroach Labs, Redis Labs, Timescale, and Graylog moved away from OSI-approved licenses to licenses that are not ‘open source.’

Redis Labs gets undeserved flack for their licensing changes. Redis remains fully open source under the BSD 3-Clause License. The relicensing only applied to the modules that are part of Redis Labs' paid offerings. So it's the open core model, but even better because the non-core offerings are source-available.
If the initial license was GPL or the like, then it would prevent that, as long as they want to include any of the contributors' GPL code, they have to offer the whole package under GPL. MIT-style licenses would generally permit what you describe.

Also, they can't "unlicense" previously distributed code - if the system was previously distributed with an open source license, Amazon can use that version as the basis for a "Dumbo-compatible" cloud service without rewriting the 80% of the code as long as they're basing it on the last open release; they would only have to reimplement the new things that "Dumbo" added if they want; Amazon does not have to accept the new license if they don't need the new code and the old code with the old license fits their needs better.
I agree cats are much more intentional in their communication than people appreciate, but sometimes you can't just give the cat what it wants. my cat mainly meows for two reasons. he either wants food or he wants to go in the kitchen. unfortunately he can't be free fed because he will quickly become overweight. he's not allowed in the kitchen because he eats plants and jumps up on the stove, sometimes right next to an open flame. serious question: how would you handle this situation?

Linux just isn't plug and play enough yet to make the switch less painful than dealing with the pain-points created by anti-consumer practices by Apple and Microsoft on MacOS and Windows, even for technically literate people.

I made the switch a year ago after having reached my breaking point with Windows and it still was a massive pain and daily loss of performance. For comparison, I also rooted my Android phone and installed LineageOS without google services which crippled it significantly and it still wasn't as much as a pain to do as using Linux on my workstation.

People often say (not talking about you, just something I see on HN often) that it's easy nowadays and anyone can use it but it's not been my experience and I think it's the very attitude that keeps it from being a commonplace OS for the consumer market. I keep a list in a file I call "linux sins" but without having to look at it you can figure out the problem by just googling any benign problem someone might encounter on their OS and checking the answers. Do the answers start with "Click there" or "Open your terminal"? I don't see the situation changing since people who develop for linux generally refuse to acknowledge the problem.

Drive failure during a rebuild isn't a real concern unless

1) the rebuild takes time comparable to characteristic lifetime of the drive, which on average is >5years. Rebuild times are more in the realm of days, maybe coming to weeks with the proposed 100TB models. Still far from substantial probability of failure.

2) the drives are very old or have bad SMART data. Then the probability of drive failure and (array loss) shoots up.

What people often talk about regarding big drives and reliability concerns is probability of rebuild failure for RAID5, RAID6, i.e. some bit is read or written wrong and the array becomes inconsistent. This is much more probable but isn't really a big problem in practice because this can be detected and rebuild can be repeated.
> Safeguards may not be needed if meditation is pursued in moderation and with a modicum of self-awareness.

That seems like a tautology to me.

You are essentially saying that those who practice safely do not need safeguards.

This is true, but of course the safeguards are not for those people.

They are for people who are at risk but don’t know it.

When I see software enhanced photography like this, and look at the relatively primitive processing that is happening on my DSLR and my high priced mirrorless cameras, I realize that despite their huge sensors and amazing glass (which I paid a small fortune for), they will soon be outclassed by the simple smartphone in my pocket.

My wife routinely shoots photos on her Pixel 3 that get a better response on our family whatsapp group than the painstakingly post-processed DSLR shots I create and post.

This could be an indictment of my failures as a photographer. Or perhaps my family has no taste in photos. But it's also entirely possible that a Pixel 3 is all the camera you really need for family documentary work ... and I've wasted so much money on unnecessary hobby gear.

I did my Ph.D. thesis on a Sun 4/110 connected to a VME transputer board and from there into a larger transputer array, using T-800s. Amazing and way ahead of the times - what really killed things was a combination of the removal of financial support by the UK Govt, and also an unexpected increase in the clock frequency of single core CPUs, rendering anything which was not on the latest process out of date. Then the UK went into recession, and many good people left. Some went to the west coast US, other took teaching positions in places like Australia. I do always wonder what could have become of the UK computer industry in the early 90's had it been appropriately funded at the right time (via something like DARPA). But instead, the concentration went into turning London into a financial hub.

As someone whose ancestors annihlated his other ancestors I'm not proud at all, nor do I feel guilt. It's a tragedy as old as human history.

Burying words under a rug doesn't fix anything, only diligence and real egalitarianism will.
I agree with your premise that everyone has to provide value in their own unique way. However, what skills primed you for success? You mentioned knowing the equation between CLV and CAC.

So open source means only licenses that are most favourable to the big tech monopolists now?

As a user, I can use Elasticsearch just fine with the new license. I can read the code, modify it and use in my own projects.

So it is more difficult for Amazon to use their monopolistic power to build a competing service to the one that is financing Elasticsearch development? Yeah, good stuff.

If the big tech monopolists need something under a permissive license they should pay for its development.

Strange microbe “breathes” nitrates using a mitochondria-like symbiont
I got in a little late: some of my friends bought N770s early on, but I didn't get in until the N800.

I own (still) an N800 and an N810. Though I haven't picked up either in a while, I thought they were nifty devices at the time, and should pick them back up again. I still think they have a lot going for them. (The N800 was actually the first mobile navigation system I ever used, with an external Bluetooth GPS and software based on OpenStreetMaps.)

I was unable to find an N900 anywhere when it was new. I was met with pretty much blank stares.

Eventually, an online vendor got some refurbished N900s in stock at a good price. I ordered one, got it, plugged it in overnight to charge...

...and in the morning, it was totally dead. I emailed the vendor and asked for an exchange because, you know, one bad one out of the bunch, they were refurbs anyway, no problem.

The vendor wrote back and told me that they had received a batch of 28 of them. ALL the ones they got had some sort of problem that resulted in a return, they would not be getting any more of them, and if I sent it back they'd give me a refund.

Thus ended my N900 experiment.
