Cool of you to do this, though I wonder if this will be more of a measure of community size. Smaller niche topic communities probably behave more like citation rings (you'd cite everyone else in the community frequently). It also seems like it'd penalize people working in a new area (like if you're the first person to use a method, you'd probably cite yourself a bunch).
Well, as I said, one advantage is that processes running on the CPU server can access your local files transparently—including /dev/screen, /dev/mouse, and /dev/bitblt, if you so choose.

That means you can run graphical applications on the CPU server.

Yeah well, when I was growing up Pluto was still a planet.
closing a browser should definitely close all connections associated with it... that is one reason why I don't use Google applications on Linux... because they (used to) keep a process running even when you closed the application (that was years ago and I don't know how it is today).
And even if they were practical to run, the time spent implementing this improvement probably wouldn't ever pay off.
You beat me to it. Just posted a comment saying the same thing. I think if we solidified the CO2 we would have an easier time dealing with it, but IDK. Then again, we might be able to get to work now by just suspending some blimps in the upper atmosphere. They could use solar energy to sequester the CO2 and start lowering the pressure & temperature.

I'm surprised how often this site gets linked despite being almost entirely composed of correlation graphs[1]. If you're going to argue that the end of the gold standard is responsible for many of today's economic woes, I'm going to need more rigorous evidence than a bunch of charts with arrows on them. Speaking of which, a quick search has shown that the first charts has some flaws[2]. The use of several dozen images in lieu of substantive analysis/evidence makes is reminiscent of a gish gallop[2], which is a red flag for me.

I'm not sure if this will help much, but the current U.S. constitutional law around this is based on this concept:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_threat

I imagine one thing that people don't like about this doctrine is that a speaker might have the intention or effect (or both) of causing someone to feel afraid, but a court might conclude that this feeling was nonetheless unreasonable, and therefore the speech was protected.

That's a thorny problem because feeling frightened is a very serious kind of suffering, but courts don't want that possibility to swallow all of free expression doctrine (and generally don't want to give hearers a way to put a stop to someone's speech through their reactions alone https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heckler%27s_veto).

Strangely, writing about this has made me think about https://repository.upenn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=123... and an idea that having one sender and two receivers (here, a person to whom the speech is directed, and a judge, assessing whether the speech contains a threat or not) allows for "attacks" based on the receivers' different interpretations of the same message. Maybe I'll have to think about that more and write something about it...

Edit:

Oh, also, by "such a category of unprotected speech", I didn't mean to say that there are no categories of unprotected speech in U.S. constitutional law, just that "hate speech" isn't one of them! So I think you might have been confused by an ambiguity in how I phrased that.

While there are several categories of unprotected speech in U.S. constitutional law, hate speech isn't one of them. A sort of analogy is that when various people tried to legally restrict minors' access to violent video games, opponents of this legislation successfully argued that there was no tradition in U.S. law of limiting the protection of speech because it contained explicit violence, as opposed to because it was sexually explicit. In that case the opponents agreed that there are prior concepts of "obscene as to minors" and "harmful to minors", but that these have only ever been held to relate to sexuality, not violence.

While this goes against a lot of people's intuitions, U.S. civil libertarians pretty uniformly celebrated it because the unprotected speech categories were successfully contained and kept from growing further.

Show HN: Wi-Page – Rank Wikipedia Article's Contributors by Byte Counts
A fair point. I wasn't thinking about tectonic subduction, which would hide pretty much all evidence that anyone was there. Though I think that article is talking more about having the same surface exposed to the air for a long time, without being worn down by weathering or covered in silt. You could have an area covered in dirt or partly eroded away, and still be recognizably an artifact of civilization for a long time. I don't know if such things would last billions of years though.

Also, I expect weathering and erosion would happen a lot faster on Venus, what with the high heat and extreme winds that are more like a flowing ocean current than what we'd think of as "wind".
Great. Now all it needs is a functioning "APE" ("ANSI Posix Environment"), which, iirc was built by Tom Duff and sadly neglected ever since.

Once P9 gets over its insane NIH syndrome (or IHBBTWP, "Invented Here But By The Wrong Person", i.e. Stroustrup) it could maybe do some weird stuff like, I dunno, run a web browswer? I vividly remember people in the Unix room moving to a PC (running Windows?) to browse the web, ffs. Back in '94.

A variable is the water temperature and it’s oxygenation level.

Shading the feeder waterways with 20 m belts of trees, using carbon credits to offset the establishment costs then compensating farmers for the lost area should help.

Everyone is winning. The higher oxygenated cooler water will utilise nitrogen and phosphate more effectively, less nitrogen and phosphate will get into the water as it’s absorbed by trees and less fertiliser will be required because soil hydrology will improve, reducing the amount that runs off instead of turning into plants.

Every 2km of waterway bank planted would hold 1500 tonne of carbon eventually. Erosion would decrease so some local bridge and road infrastructure budgets could go towards more planting. And everywhere you saw corridors of trees in paddocks you would think of native animals traisping along their natural highways.

Humans won’t cooperate and go backwards financially and or reputationally. This would potentially avoid that. It’s not the optimum but would have a positive impact for all involved and a chance of success.

> In third world, generally the same amount of money goes much longer than in the West.

There are some things that just cannot be purchased in the third world, though. Stability, a well educated population, a fair court system, confidence in the institutions that supply infrastructure (roads, trains, bridges, water, electricity, etc.), low perceived corruption, confidence that property rights will be upheld, high trust low friction transactions, and so on.

There's definitely variance between the different first and third world countries, and all countries have their pros and cons, but some things can definitely not be purchased with money.

To illustrate, in Silicon Valley, I might be fired if I mentioned in the break room that I think "pronouns" are unsexy.

And yet, it is a matter of my individual and sexual identity that I would want to say this, because I find it funny and I enjoy the risque. In fact, it might even turn some people on, even if they do have their pronoun in their Slack bio. Why is my declaration of identity less meaningful or less protected?

My hope is that I can continue to say silly things like this out of personal context, and still be accepted and valued as a person in society.
Hard to know because imo, you should be focusing on the big technical risks and questions. And that depends on the context and situation of your company.

That could be defining the "software and software services" that the company is betting on.

It could be looking to the future; how should that software evolve.

It could be hiring more devs if you are capacity constrained now.

It could be managing the current devs (a VPE role with the CTO title) if delivery is problematic.

Could be working to define a replicable, scalable architecture.

Could be sitting in sales meetings and being the technical voice in the room.

Look for the biggest technical problem (not likely to be writing code!) and work on that.

Orchestration and lifecycle management for complex applications on Kubernetes
Orchestration of a group of complex applications with dependencies between themselves and their subcharts/dependencies is hard

Imagine a scenario in which application that depends on Prometheus, Grafana and Istio. Now let's take it a step further and define a dependency between Istio and it's observability components, Prometheus & Grafana, since Istio itself leverages both Prometheus and Grafana for it's control-plane. In other words we now have a dependency DAG where, the application depends-on Istio depends-on Prometheus & Grafana. Now imagine the application depending on other applications that provide PaaS like infrastructure capabilities required to run the application itself

Defining this dependency order allows all components to spin up both, reliably and efficiently

This would make a huge difference when we are dealing with complex applications like 5G network functions running mission-critical workloads across the network and their lifecycle management (installs/upgrades/rollback). Providers, tend to take releases in a "semi-continuous" manner as opposed to true CD. Meaning, when upgrading, multiple applications and their subcharts may be upgraded in a single release. This is a scenario in which defining the dependency ordering between the applications and their subcharts allows the service providers to limit the blast radius if this go wrong, allowing them to fail fast and rollback without impacting all upgrade-ready apps

Introducing Azure Orkestra https://github.com/Azure/Orkestra that provides the aforementioned capabilities using a familiar Kubernetes declarative CRDscalled ApplicationGroups. Orkestra leverages Argo Workflows to generate DAG workflows to deploy all applications with an application group (and optionally a DAG workflow for the subcharts in each application). The DAG on execution generates HelmRelease objects that are then acted upon by flux helm-operator to reliably perform the helm actions (install, delete, upgrade, rollback)
In large collaborations, this is common. See e.g. https://inspirehep.net/authors/1222902?ui-citation-summary=t...

MAC addresses are 48 bits and unrelated to IPv4. Multiplying two 65536×65536 matrices naively in O(n^3) time would be about the same number of operations as processing each possible MAC address.
So let me get this straight:

Medium pushed all their 3rd party community publishers off the platform, in many cases destroying said communities. Even ended 3rd party domain support.

Went on a censorship spree, hired 80 people to create their own publications, started pushing mainstream media narratives, and stopped driving traffic to individual users to drive traffic to their publications.

Those publications then failed to grow without Medium driving their traffic, so the 80 paid writers tried to unionize, which Medium busted, so now Ev is basically publicly daring his staff to quit by making it sound like it is a fair and reasonable pivot for Medium (when it clearly isn't)?

Did I miss anything?

Why should anyone trust Medium at this point?

They've pivoted so many times, and every time they do they screw their users over, and now even their own paid staff.

Most http logs just store request info. It is quite possible to capture detailed connection info, but web logs at scale are not free and better deliver some value. Akamai for example only logs connection termination errors for failed transactions--and it needs a valid header to do so, or it will not get logged.

I am not too worried about the described behavior.

This is true in general, but not in the extreme case of fascistic systems built on the perception of power and on cults of personalities. Killing Mussolini would have dealt a very serious blow to fascist Italy, probably enough to facilitate a collapse.

The three key elements are : perception of strength being central to ideology, aestheticized politics, and cult of personality.
There’s certainly risk, but I don’t think converting all traffic to ssl is worth it to mitigate the risk.

Sorry, you lost me. I don't see what that has to do with the topic. I also don't see that it's true, but that's probably not the high-order bit.
My thoughts are if you don't need a human in the pilot seat, you don't need a pilot seat. Fewer constraints and your craft can become a lot more capable. Drones with AI pilots or AI assist seems to fit right in here. And it seems to be the way things already moved a war or two ago. Teaching AI to dogfight in F16s seems completely pointless. Even to train F16 pilots crazy enough to enter a battlefield against a capable enemy, where you will be shot down by an AI guided hypersonic missile or drone swarm rather than jousting against another mounted knight in honorable 1 on 1 combat.
There were some interesting profiles following the NotPetya attack on Maersk in 2017 where Maersk claimed to have 1,200 - 1,500 applications, 49,000 laptops, 6,200 servers.

Maersk are entering into block-chain "distributed ledger technology" with IBM and similar modern solutions. But one article put $300 of every $2,000 of shipping costs for administration and paperwork[0].

I think you're right, there is a massive advantage to be had, and companies are chasing that advantage. But from my (tangential logistics) background, even the biggest shipping companies have the usual range of legacy systems, heavy administration overhead, plenty of paperwork, excel-based-tools and huge integration headaches.

People have been saying this for decades. Both the idea that the academic publishing model is about to die (due to too many papers, low quality, broken peer review, etc.), and that we need to focus on reproducibility.

These ideas itself are valid but not nuanced. I could also argue that academic publishing as at its most successful ever with science advancing at an incredible pace even as complexity is so high, and I could argue that everyone is now thinking about reproducibility and it's baked into the academic process these days (for decades, having another lab reproduce your paper is critical to it being accepted by the community even after being accepted for publication).

Maybe an analogy I would use it if I were to say "software is so broken, the quality is getting worse over time, new programmers can't fizzbizz, security bugs everywhere, no one can even reliably make a heathcare website or computer game on time." Same argument that you're making.

there’s no concrete evidence that lockdowns themselves were the principle mitigative effect, because so many different mitigations were thrown at it in hopes at least one of them worked. more likely is the general reduction in social contact brought on by uncertainty and amorphous (and media-fueled) fear and anxiety, i.e., social distancing.

perhaps in an ideal world, your scenario may have proven effective, but we don’t live in that world. this pandemic wasn’t severe enough to warrant such drastic measures in our imperfect world (as opposed to something akin to the bubonic plague, where nearly everyone would have voluntarily locked down).

I've wondered a lot about whether these uavs aren't more powerful than a lot of our fighter jets. I guess it's inappropriate to talk about scenarios where they could be deployed to cause great harm. But, it doesn't take much thinking to imagine the efficacy of a well placed uav, and the small difficulty it would be to conceal one of these in an adversarial country.
I saw a color version of it. The quality was as good as you could expect of something filmed in 1920. I think it's pretty straight forward - no need to slow it down or rewind it.

They are just now starting to phase out the r22 refrigerant used in ACs with a new one r410, which it self will be phased out. So during the last two decades, the number of ACs used, in places like India and China, has grown exponentially. I've been to India. Window ACs hanging out of windows everywhere. And thats only one of the polluting chemicals. Impossible to measure how much is released in China during manufacturing.

Perhaps, I've died and this is all a dream. But I do believe the world did not end yet. Despite all the articles from blowhards, preaching doom through the last two decades.
