> Changes that build on the original either go in the same PR, or have to wait until the PR is merged so a second PR can be created.

For feature branches feature-2 that's based on feature-1, why not create a PR from feature-2 onto feature-1 to get the review started? Once feature-1 is merged, simply rebase feature-2 and update the PR. Pipeline that shit, baby!
There is an even simpler approach that doesn't involve cherry-pick or rebase.

Instead of doing this:

```

checkout f2

git rebase f1

push -fu origin f2

checkout f3

git rebase f2

push -fu origin f3

```

Do this instead:

```

git checkout f2

git merge f1

git push

git checkout f3

git merge f2

git push

```

You would follow this same approach if someone merged a PR ahead of yours into master:

```

git checkout master

git pull

git checkout f1

git merge master

git push

```

I stack PRs everyday because of the points mentioned in the article, but haven't found a tool which will automatically rollup merges yet (haven't looked either).

> If you talk to Dell/HP/other, they can advise you and sell you large storage appliances. Problem is, the larger appliances will only host 1 or 2 PB. That's nowhere near enough.

This is just incorrect.

If you talk to HPE, they should be quite happy to sell you the my employer's software (Qumulo) alongside their hardware. 10+ PB is definitely supported. (The HPE part is not required)

If you talk to Dell EMC, they will quite happily sell you their competing product, which is also quite capable of scaling beyond 1-2PB.

I’ve bicycled as my main mode of transportation for thirty years, all year round, in Stockholm and in Umeå. They sell excellent studded tires for bicycles.

I’m not saying it’s possible for everyone. I would probably not do it if my commute was longer than 20 km one way. But many more people can define do it for the benefit of their health and the environment.
OpenCL is old, and everyone seemingly wants to abandon it, but it's your only option for a bunch of configurations (such as AMD on Windows, even though AMD has pulled all their OpenCL stuff from their website).

As someone who's done a fair bit of SIMD programming on CPU, and heard many scream that wide SIMD (like AVX512) is pointless when you have GPGPU, it's certainly eye-opening to see how poor a state cross-platform GPGPU development is in.
Well, I suppose if you only care about Nvidia, CUDA does seem to be pretty good. Too bad it's Nvidia only.

I've heard people consider Vulkan Compute as an alternative. I had a quick look, and it doesn't seem like it supports integer operations (what I'm mostly doing), so doesn't seem viable for me, but I guess it could for a bunch of folk. Not familiar with Vulkan myself though, so corrections welcome.

Correct! I've been pointing this out, also. I found this article [0], referencing the J&J FDA trails where they saw a 50% increase in blood clots in the vaccinated group, which was not considered statistically significant at the time (20k people, 15 blood clots in vaccinated group versus 10 in the placebo group). These were not the exceptionally dangerous cerebral venous sinus thrombosis blood clots.

I don't know if we'll get better numbers on other types of J&J blood clots from the CDC at some point, but I've noticed the same as you that people are comparing J&J cerebral blood clot deaths to birth control clots of any type and that doesn't look like a fair comparison to me, either.

Is there any Rossetta 2 (SBT Static Binary Translation) alternative on Linux?
On an Apple Silicon chip such as M1 (ARMv8), x86 instructions can be translated statistically by Rossetta 2 when the program runs for the first time. It's fast. Because Rossetta 2 does the SBT (Static Binary Translation).

I had used qemu to emulated an x86_64 Linux OS on a M1 MacBook Pro and it worked. But qemu is doing the JIT (Just-in-time compilation),the performance is so bad, very slow, hardly usable.

Is there any public implementation (opensource?) for doing the SBT on ARM64 based Linux which can run x86 instructions faster?

2. Can the startup weather large capex? does opex work better for you?

3. Do you already have staff with sufficient bandwidth to support this, or will you need to hire?

5. What is the data growth rate?

6. What is the cost of losing some, or all of this data?

7. What is your expected ROI?

On the topic of software engineers exhibiting poor comprehension...

> IANAL, but you're obviously not one either.

That ought to have been clear from the first two sentences of my comment.

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

You can imagine all you like. I'll leave that to the courts themselves.

Suggesting people (even with a superfluous IANAL disclaimer) make legal decisions based on what you imagine courts will do is just poor advice; legal or otherwise.

> 2) Damages [...]

I haven't mentioned damages because it's not relevant. If you think the concept is new to me, you're quite welcome to peruse my recent HN comments.

Infringement and damages are unrelated concepts. Will someone have to pay substantial damages for infringing in the way described? Probably not, but that doesn't change the fact infringement took place. It also is going to vary wildly depending on the circumstances involved.

Some jurisdictions have minimum damages that are owed simply if an infringement takes places, irrespective of any other details of the infringements.

It's just outright poor advice to suggest people make legal decisions based on what they can imagine.

There's also a very big difference between what I'm suggesting and what you're suggesting. You're telling people to go ahead and do something. I'm telling them not to do something.

Perhaps I'm being overly conservative, but you're quite right, unless you're sitting down with a lawyer (which let's face most open source projects are not) then don't make assumptions. Just follow the license precisely to the best of your ability, until you've got specific legal advice (and insurance) to protect you if something goes wrong.

EDIT: This really shouldn't be relevant. Because honestly it shouldn't add any credibility to my statements.

No I don't sit down with lawyers every time I make decision that has legal implications - that's impossible. However, I do have first hand experience dealing with copyright/licensing lawyers specifically over IP infringement due to a third-party violating the license of software I wrote. No, it wasn't just a discussion. Lawyers took action, and infringement stopped taking place - it did not reach the courts.

Again, that shouldn't add any credibility to my claims. I have zero credibility here, as does mostly everyone else. Just read the damn license.
That's generally only in the common areas, not in the retail spaces that make up the vast majority of the actual floorplan and where any converted offices would actually be.

Agreed. Definitely wasn't slumped. More like endlessly focused on the task at hand, under deadline. As a tool to keep the mind focused on the work, the Aeron rocked it. Until it didn't because of the back issues.

I have a tendency to forget my body when I focus, which is a plus and minus. It's great for the work, not so great for the body, so having a chair that reminds the body to be active is a plus for the long term.

Personally, I like the combo of a balance board/standing desk. As standing without the board, also caused me to collapse into a leg causing tightness, but with the balance board, I'm always in a slight state of motion, and the muscles are active, so I'm ready to go when it's time to move. As I've aged, I find my focus is actually enhanced as well.
I currently pay about $40 for a half hour of remote hands at a large data center. Modern disks rarely need to be swapped. You can look at BackBlaze's published failure rates and do the math yourself if you don't believe me.

Well, Honda probably make 50k CRF250s a year or something, and Norco make maybe 1/20th the number for any particular product line?

Within limits. Some of the large cities in the cold parts of Canada have their malls underground connected by subway or metro. With some planning, non-natives can stay underground for months. It takes a little getting used to walking around in -20c weather or colder.

Across the border in Vermont, some of the strip malls have a glass-enclosed front layer for similar thermal protection.
You don't do redundancy that way at that scale, that's completely insane. You run ceph or beegfs or Windows Storage Server and backup to tape with a tape library. If youve got big bucks (though still peanuts compared to s3) you replicate the entire setup 1:1 at a second site.
Yup. Considered it. I initially settled on no because it might compromise the design goal of 1:1 MongoDB/PyMongo compatibility. Now the idea is being revived as an option alongside the two existing backends. I am concerned there might be an issue with some square-peg high level MongoDB operations simply not fitting into the SQLite round-hole but it's certainly something that's being investigated.
I recall a town in Texas decided to wipe out the local bat population due to fear of rabies. The next year they had a major scourge of mosquitoes. Turns out bats mostly eat mosquitoes. They let the bats resettle the area.

Bats eat tons of mosquitoes. Some outfits encourage and help people set up bat friendly enclosures to deal with local mosquito problems.

The way this thread progressed was very fascinating to read.

First, an absurd baseless generalization was made. Then, when challenged, the generalization was narrowed down a bit. Then it was narrowed down again and again until we got this comment which asserts an outright lie.

These words aren't always used in a racist and homophobic way. 4chan is proof of this.

Right. The state of malls in US is quite a contrast to Asia where new malls keep being built, especially here in Thailand.

Malls across Asia represent the height of social interaction.

Teenagers come and hang out. Social events like fashion shows, food fairs, car shows all are held in the clean comfort malls Public area. If you have a child that does any kind of singing dancing or musical instrument the recital is most likely to be held at the mall.

Meeting someone for dinner is easiest done at the mall restaurants - which includes some many chains but also unique sole proprietor restaurants.

I’ve yet to go to a popular mall where the parking lot is not absolutely packed. In this case you use the malls built-in car wash services while you take a stroll.

The pandemic has certainly taken a toll on Thailand’s malls as well, but it does not look their position in society will be uprooted by online shopping anytime soon.

I'm genuinely surprised that AMD didn't put in an effort to implement CUDA themselves. It's been almost 15 years. They should have started a skunkworks project to get CUDA running immediately.

Intel didn't take long to eat crow and ship the AMD64 instruction set in their CPUs as soon as it became clear they'd lost the 64-bit ISA game. AMD should have taken a lesson from that: if the market wants the other guy's API, you can implement it, customers will be pleased, and that gives you power over the API that you wouldn't have otherwise.

I’d like to add I’d agree with the parent comment and add some specifics.

Buy storage servers from 45drives they basically build same hardware as Backblaze uses. Add copper 10G nics to the servers.

https://www.45drives.com/

Get necessary switches 10G with 40G uplink ports. Whatever your favorite. Use 10GBaseT to the servers.

Install hardware in a quality data center. Like one of theirs -

https://www.digitalrealty.com/

And get 10G virtual cross connects to AWS.

Back of the envelope calculation you need 30TB raw, so about 60 servers. They aren’t really that power hungry so 10 per cabinet. 6 cabinets. at least 6+2 switches.

Software wise you have lots of options with this infra. High upfront cost but low MRC vs all other options. Assuming you have skilled sys admins who know what they are doing.
I've seen PUF's come up a few times lately, and I'm bearish on them, so YMMV on this, however here's why.

I'm a bit bothered that the article uses "hackers," as their threat actor, because the only meaningful threat actor in the design of new cryptographic primitives is a group of hundreds of other professional mathematicians and cryptologists employed by an adversary nation state.

From purely a security architecture perspective (and not a working cryptographers perspective), they would need a way to be formally verified and testable, which hiding an entropy source in a sealed unit is not. If you want to do any serious applications, you need to go through NSA test labs, which as far as I know, these have not yet and it's a pretty high bar.

Given they are physically unclonable, it doesn't provide any additional flexibility for updating key material, which means they are now physically unreplacable devices. That "it's just so random," only means it is random over a field of a certain size, and even then, I've seen "cryptographic" systems where the period of the sample (or sample size) from a random source was reduced to only a few usable bytes right after it was sampled. The entire history of crypto backdoors is about reducing the entropy of seeds and other primitives, so that these PUFs happen to produce noise doesn't change that.

Further, the only reason anyone adopts crypto is because it is certified by NIST, and because institutions and certification bodies are like /dev/null for compliance risk, so the decisions are not based on the ability of users to reason about the crypto implementation.

The source of risk in security right now are not in P/CRNGs so much as the orthogonal problem of verifying the integrity of implementations of cryptosystems that are well understood, a need which PUFs appear (to me) to specifically frustrate. DeFi has created more of a wild west than a renaissance in cryptography right now, and PUFs seem a bit predatory to me.

I know there are some a-list crypto evaluators here, and I'd be interested in how these perceptions of mine are wrong.
It seems to entirely depend on good mall management honestly. The mall near me is a Simon mall ($SPG) and it’s doing great. Part of that is because they refuse to have vacancies and seem to actively recruit appealing businesses to locate there.

Many malls in nearby towns are filing bankruptcy.

The simple solution is work from home because most people already have a home, and simple solutions win. The only reason you're mentioning malls is because they are there, but unless you're a mall-walker on the weekends, I'm pretty sure the average developer's definition of a good lunch break isn't "walking past the mall McDonald's 3 times before returning to your mall wework" or whatever.
I love how in the US, instead of building all these services and offices near each other and walkable from people's homes, we insist on ideas that force people to drive dozens of miles to get a walkable and convenient experience.
