That also means that you need extra spare disks in the system, which also means extra servers, extra racks, extra power feeds, extra cooling etc.

If you do a 60-disk 4U setup you'll need 1 full rack of those just to get your 10PB, then you'll need yet another one for redundancy. And then a quarter for hot spares. At that point you have single-redundancy, no file history and no scaling. Is it possible? Sure. Is this something you can do 'on a side track with the people you already heave'? Unlikely if you are a startup with no datacenter, no colocation yet etc.
There's a lot about Stallman I admire, and a lot I dislike. In his case, I have no qualms with the title Doctor, given that his work is more than sufficient to have an earned doctorate at many (most? all?) universities. Does he really need to defend a dissertation to be acknowledged as an expert in the CS field? The dissertation is a filter to ensure you know what you're talking about and have earned the title. In Stallman's case, his professional work speaks for itself. His work is the research and dissertation.

Probably not necessary if they stack the licenses, since Apache 2.0 and AGPL are apparently compatible. That is, they can just add the terms of the AGPL in addition to Apache 2.0.

Unlike most heavy metals, cesium doesn't really accumulate in the body. Its biological half-life is around 70 days.[1]

Also it's hard to overstate just how little cesium there is in this honey. The EU limit for cesium in baby food & formula is 370Bq/kg[2], almost 20 times greater than the most radioactive honey the researchers found.

The article is really about how sensitive scientific instruments can be, not about any danger to people or nature.

"...create something which is horribly mutated, fucked up genetically, and experiences only pain for its entire life."

'God' does this all the time already. Friends of mine recently had a baby girl; she is missing part of one of her chromosomes. The family is very religious, and is being torn apart trying to understand how their 'loving God' could have done such a thing. So this 'morality' you speak of is making a tragic and difficult event far worse.

You are also neglecting the 'unnatural' processes that allow many worthy people have children via IVF.

'Natural' science and medicine had it's place back in medieval times, but not now. Same goes for religion.

The entire CNCF apparently has a no AGPL policy. We just found out this week that we cannot update and redistribute Grafana anymore with our CNCF projects, (or if we do we will be on very shaky legal footing.)

The "small" market for new sub-$20k vehicles includes: the Toyota Corolla, Hyundai Elantra, Mazda 3, Nissan Sentra, Hyundai Kona, and Kia Soul, depending on options. Sometimes you can get a new base Civic for just under $20k. All of these are very popular cars. Basically the entire subcompact car or crossover segments (non-luxury), and most of the compact car segment (depending on options).
That's awesome trivia!

Perhaps Doctor is a nickname he has earned moreso than many who were granted the honorific. Given what you can get a PhD in these days, if it flatters him and it's in genuine admiration, call him that. I'd take a nickname over an honorific any day.

IMO, the thing about honors is they're only meaningful if you can afford to dispense with them, so I think it would be pretentious for him to introduce himself with it. I've only ever called the various Sirs, Lords, Rt. Hons, Generals, Colonels, and various Worships I've met by their first names because I'm a civilian.

Depends. If the Navy lost then the winner might own them. Reciently the remains of WWI ships that Germany scuttled so they couldn't be captured, went on eBay (the ships were intured in an English harbor at the time). They are considered a public attraction, so the owner won't be allowed to do anything other than grant permission to visiting divers.
I'm reasonably sure we also produce more Free software than anywhere else, too.
Thank you! Really appreciate the commitment to simplicity among the libraries I'm using like potpack, rbush, and polylabel. I did take a look at Kothic and agree the labeling is great; I did feel like I needed to write yet another Canvas renderer to take advantage of async/await and also eventually expose runtime-extendable custom Symbolizers.
My nostalgia does not extend to typewriters, because I'm a shitty typist. I do love sewing machines for the same mechanical intricacy and the impressive combination of precision and mass manufacturing that made them accessible to a large number of people.

They're also among the last consumer goods you can actually get repaired. And it's not like it's hard to find a repair shop most places.
It might be nice to add a section on audio (and MIDI?) I/O SDKs / APIs. Although large frameworks like JUCE take care of this for the developer, most of the other tools, libraries etc. that you've mentioned don't really tackle the question of how to get audio in and/or out of whatever computing device is being used.

Any moral quandaries may already be rendered moot by superior biotechnology. For any given use case of interest: gene therapies, disease modelling, cell transplantation, etc. High-efficiency computer assisted cellular conversion of stem cells is the holy grail. Recall, you don't need to replace entire organs. Just the diseased sectors. And if in vivo cellular reprogramming can be targeted to organs with historically lacking regenerative capability, base astrocytes into fresh plastic neurons, for example. It would unlock longevity beyond the mere physical ;)

You don't read legal text like a piece of code. Contracts and licenses don't work like that. It took me a long time to wrap my head around this.

Contracts and licenses are built on:

1) Things need to be substantially the same. If I offer to build a house for you with Brand X super-plywood flooring, and it's sold out, I can build it upgraded to Brand Y corkwood flooring since Brand X plywood was sold out, and it's substantially equivalent for the purpose, and that's okay. On the other hand, if Brand X introduces a new low-cost plywood flooring that technically qualifies but obviously isn't what we meant, you've got a case.

I can't imagine any court will care about 4b being on a per-file versus per-repo basis.

2) Damages. There isn't a magic genie which throws contract-breakers or license-breakers in jail. The extent to which these matter is damages. If I break an agreement with you, you need to care enough to sue me. Beyond that, a court will award damages, and you'll need to show you were harmed somehow, or entitled to statutory damages.

I'm not sure how you'd show you were somehow damaged by a change like whether license text is per-file or per-repo.

Contracts are written by lawyers who keep all this in mind. That's why I hire lawyers to help interpret contracts; a plain language read is often misleading. My advice is read the licenses with a lawyer, or at least someone with a basic background in contracts and licenses. Goodness knows there are bad lawyers out there, but even those will give better advice than a stranger on the internet.

Disclaimer: This is specific to common law systems, and perhaps not all of them. But that's how the US works.

At retail, 625 16TB drives is $400000. This is about 2x the MONTHLY retail s3 pricing. Further, as we all know, AWS bandwidth pricing is absolutely bonkers (1).

I think your conclusion that S3 is "pretty good" needs a lot more math to support.

As you can see from another comment, they’re being in efficient in the “uncommon” case and reading the registry even when there’s no changes. How often is “not often”? The 1% case they’re trying to tackle. It’s ~1-2 weeks (maybe more) for one engineer to watch the registry and either they didn’t think of that or consider it not yet warranted for ROI (or didn’t think to do a registry watcher).
Well, you'd refer to an object by its key, so while the value of the object would have the data, you could stil refer to your objects as keys, the same way we refer to files on a filesystem. It's not the file that is big, but the blocks it represents.

A dissertation is not “a filter to ensure you know what you're talking about”. It is supposed to be an original piece of research that advances the state of knowledge. I am aware of Stallman’s inspiring promotion of freedom and his creation of useful, and widely used, tools, such as emacs. But I don’t know very much about him, really, or his work. What contribution did he make to research?
He could have easily earned a PhD at MIT with his work, IIRC there were some important papers he produced. He should probably use Dr(h.c.) and the matter would be settled. I bet he could easily get a PhD in business or sociology with the impact of free software on either of those.
Is it live? I was looking at the original link from this post and there was a "loop" option, along with the coincidence that the moment I opened the window, someone came and opened the physical window. Seemed like it was a prerecorded video, which for some reason, completely ruins the experience.
Stonestown isn't in the Outer Sunset, its closer to "Lakeside" TBH. It'd probably be a good spot for housing since the lightrail runs next to it, its near a college (SF State), and near 280 which makes commuting to the southbay easy.
I highly recommend mechanical typewriters for children with anxiety.

A mechanical typewriter has no opinions. There will never be a squiggly line telling you that you did something wrong. It will never turn itself off because you took too long. You never have to wake it up.

It is always there. Ready for you. When you want to use it. That’s a lot of comfort and reassurance for a child.
Because the audience is discouraged from screaming and they're less intoxicated?

Dr. Phil is widely and routinely criticized for calling himself a doctor. The internet says Dr. Laura has a "Ph.D. in physiology." I had no idea Dr. Ruth wasn't a real medical doctor and I feel lied to learning that now. Your examples cement to me the idea that routinely calling yourself a doctor without a medical degree is extraordinarily dishonest and used to mislead people into thinking you have a level of expertise you don't.

In other news, Consumer Reports demonstrates in a shocking analysis that Teslas can be driven off cliffs, into brick walls, and into crowds of people, and there is NO WARNING LABEL or advisory of any kind alerting consumers not to do this. In fact, Tesla relies only on the “driver’s judgement” not to do these things, and hides behind arcane product liability laws (also used by gun manufacturers and cigarette companies) to avoid responsibility for these dangerous uses of their products.
We've got outdoor malls in Chicago. They're more popular than the indoor malls even in the winter.
i think it's not productive to call it a literal/actual/effective monopoly, since it's designed to be monopoly. The problem is not so much that it's a monopoly but that it advertises itself to developers and to users as being an open more or less market, which it isn't since it's by design rigged and censored. There's a legal gap here probably because such situations are unprecedented (where a company builds a market completely controlled by itself). Do sellers and buyers have fundamental rights in a free market economy?
Have you seen the Mustang Mach E? I suspect it will be a popular vehicle partly because it is designed to look like a nice crossover SUV.

I'm not interested in sea lioning. So I'll just ask for one specific claim that is false.
It's offensive to everyone who's not a racist. Is that your definition of "outsider"? What do you think those words mean?
I provided an example, the one about an unsolved math problem (the haruhi sequence) that got solved on 4chan and then academically verified to be correct (as well as cited later on in other math research papers). I mentioned it in multiple posts.

I never said it was from /pol/, it was from another 4chan board (/sci/). And I also brought up other boards as well, so I don't know what to tell you.

You also say that my claim about Peter Bright allegations is unverified, but again, I literally was there when those conversations took place, and you are also welcome to go to any 4chan archiver website, search for that name, and you will see the results from those years.
Ask HN: Example of row-level security in open source project?
Most multi-user software that relies on a database uses a single set of credentials to access the database. Access permissions are defined and enforced within application logic, and the database server knows nothing about the users, their roles or permissions.

Postgraphile allows front-end code to use graphql to access data stored in a postgres database. So there's no traditional backend code to do the work of storing and enforcing user/role-based authorisation for certain data.

The recommended way to handle this is by the use of Row-Level Security (RLS), a database feature which ensures that only permitted data is updated or returned, based on the end user who generated the query. [0]

This sounds fine in principle but, because permissions are at row-level, you can't have different permissions for different columns in the same table. The solution is to split your tables into multiple, narrower tables. So, for example, if you don't want a user to be able to update their own username, the username column could be in a separate table from other demographic information.

I understand this in theory, and I know that RLS isn't new and isn't restricted to postgraphile. But I'd love to see a non-trivial example of it in use, for an app whose only backend is a database (ideally postgres and postgraphile, but really any relational database that supports RLS would be fine).

Can anyone point to a good repo or book that has a good example of schema design using RLS?

(I spent some time searching, but didn't find anything promising.)

> and that humanity needs people to eventually die.

People will eventually die with or without aging. Consider accidents, suicides, homicides, or other non-age related illnesses.

Do you think humanity needs billions of people to eventually develop Alzheimer's or other terminal late-life dementias?
That's always the case with study vs experiment. If you didn't control for all the variables but one, you can't make a conclusion about cause.

I think the honest thing to do is to include alternate hypotheses; or at least mention some possible confounding circumstances.
Exactly - that’s what he’s arguing for - LIFO instead of FIFO because the first patch may actually be “broken” or incomplete without the subsequent.

It certainly is ironic, but it is also an interesting case study for the many, many idiots who keep applying LEAN manufacturing as a dogma.

> it is immoral to create something sentient which has not been created by natural processes

I disagree on two parts:

1. I think it’s immoral to oppose the creation of sentient beings.

2. If we create sentient beings, those beings will have been created by a natural process, because we (and our actions) are natural processes.
Supercomputer as a service. That's a bit of a doozy.
I suppose I was in my late thirties-early forties when I came to the realisation that, like most people I knew, I had been brain-washed by Society to conform to the norm. I had been educated to tertiary level, I had been engaged, then married and had the required two children.

To support that 'standard' family, I had to have the prestigious job, I had to have a prestigious house along with its required burdensome mortgage, and I had to drive the prestigious car.

That meant I was continually 'chasing my tail', forever being obliged to spend increasing amounts of time at work, and spending increasing amounts of time fitting in with the social mores of my community.

I wasn't doing those things that I enjoyed. Instead, I was doing things that Society demanded of me. I wasn't living, I was merely being a 'pack-horse' carrying the demands and externally-imposed responsibilities of a wider community.
