> We also found many times missing libraries, or found libraries which are incomplete, or unmaintained or just not well documented

Can you give some examples here. This may have been true in the past, but isn't true anymore. I can give an example where ruby is lacking: Performant HTTP libraries, Elixir and Erlang are so good in this space, look at `finch`, `httpoison` etc,. there is first class support for HTTP2 and connection pooling / persistent connections which is very hard to find in ruby.

> Tooling is just terrible. The VSCode plugin is crap, kills the CPU unless you disable features. There is no IDE from jetbrains. There is a plugin but last time I tried it, it was even worse than the VSCode plugin.

Which plugin are you referring to? Is it using dialyzer? Using dialyzer gives you so much static analysis for free as opposed to the default ruby vscode plugin. I have never heard of complaints about tooling. On the other hand, I know lots of developers who love the tooling, mix is great, iex gives you documentation with just `h String`. Plus with language server support, you have really good IDE support in vscode and vim. Look at the number of stars on the `ElixirLS` plugin here: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/search?term=elixir&targ...

> Also, I've read some comments where people mention "we don't need redis", "we don't need workers" everything is so much easier. That was our thinking at first. But then you realize on deployments you will lose your cache, or your background jobs, etc.

Yes, you'll lose data in your cache. Caches are supposed to be ephemeral, not everyone needs their caches to be persisted. However, if your use case requires persistence, you have a lot more options than just sticking it in redis. Plus, `oban` is a high quality background processor with persistence, without the need for adding redis to your stack.

For applications where performance matters, Elixir and Erlang give you lots of tools to build a truly performant app, However, if you don't need those tools, you might be better off building it in something more familiar.
What data you can get depends on the disc drive. DiscImageCreator [0] or the redump.org wiki [1] are good starting points.

You mean that land which Israel withdrew from unilaterally, let it have a chance at prospering and instead of minding its own business they elected a terrorist organization, turned it into a millitary base and concentrated on firing rockets and kidnapping soldiers instead of showing they can responsibly control their land?

Gaza is prime example of where Arabs and Palestinians tendencies lead them when left alone. Every single horror coming from there they brought upon themselves. They proved they are incapable of civilized behavior. All they had to do is behave like rational human beings after the disengagement. Palestinians aren't rational human beings like you would expect. Every chance they get at peace they will intentionally ruin, even if all they have to do is absolutely nothing.

I moved to Ireland five years ago and I can say I’ve never seen a saner political environment in my life. It’s hard to polarise when extremes are punished harshly and that, while makes it hard to differentiate between parties, it brings a lot of stability.

Trump, Bolsonaro, Duterte, Orban, and so many others wouldn’t be possible here.

Not entirely related, but is there a simple way to run an application like a web browser in a sandbox on Windows? Sometimes I find myself wanting to install a dodgy extension or software, but I don't know how to test it safely without using something like virtual box as a sandboxed enviroment. I kinda want something where I can just right-click an .exe and run it in a sandbox.

For designs that must interface with existing hardware with precise timings, using any kind of microcontroller bitbanging often becomes unfeasible. Linus Akesson's bit-banger and craft[1] only work because they drive all the the timings, and VGA is really permissive with timings.

And once you are past cheap Atmel or ARM micro-controllers, FPGA designs are often the most cost-effective.

This FPGA comes in at a unit cost of just $5.12 and allows a design of just the FPGA, the SRAM and a few level shifters.

Any design around a CPLD and/or raw 74 series logic would end up with a much higher BOM, and you would struggle to implement the scan-doubler functionality for 31khz output at a reasonable price point.

No the concept is not entirely new, especially since historically, wasting CPU cycles was often cheaper than adding framebuffer RAM.

The c. 1977 Atari 2600 worked in a very similar way, wasting 80+% of the CPU time just to draw the screen. That was seen as a good trade-off back then since the games were simple and not typically doing much else with those CPU cycles.
I don't think it's that controversial at this point. Especially given a growing sentiment that there are limits to where ML/DL can take us which we're reaching--and the general lack of success getting practical results from cognitive science, etc.--there seems to be a growing sentiment that we should be looking at augmented AI types of approaches.
Marketing is the current dominating religion.

Traditional religions promise us a blessing in our life (or cursing our enemies and wrongdoers) or a good afterlife.

Political ideologies promise us heaven on earth.

Marketing promises us a better life, more joy, better social status (as discussed in the blog post). Even more - temples used to be the most central and well-kept building for cities; now, there are shopping malls. For some, e.g. Apple store, the resemblance is intentional. Similarly, when it comes to the festival - it does not matter what you believe in for Xmas. It matters if you buy gifts.

I've been using Elixir/Erlang for more than 6 years and absolutely love it. The community is a lovely place to be, tooling is great. Concurrency is awesome. Erlang is battle tested. If you are building applications that have anything to do with networks, you'll be able to build some seriously performant apps without having to reach for other tools and I love the community's focus on performance.
Assuming you (or the corporation) have no money - yes. That's exactly how it works for individuals, and how it should work for corporations too; they would need to take a loan (or dip into capital) to cover the 50$ loss, and would then similarly need to cover whatever tax was on revenue. Obviously taxes on revenue would not need to be as high as on profit to generate the same tax income, so for most businesses this is fine - but low margin businesses would need to raise prices slightly. On the other hand, if large corporations actually payed their share, income taxes would likely be lower, and it would be easier for smaller competitors to compete with larger corporations that can afford to profit-shift.

It would also be hell of a lot simpler, because all those crazy shell company incentives go away, and it's also much clearer what's deductible (not a whole lot).
> A human can understand the themes in a position and understand where they want the pieces to go

So can a computer though. This is an interesting edge case, but it seems to me that this particular bot mostly evaluated odds of winning by the pieces, not by the position. A more modern algorithm will actually use the positions on the board.

What would a human do if told "you're up by two rooks, do you want to allow a forced draw?" without being allowed to look at the board.

You know how people who don't work in government don't realize Parks and Rec is a documentary?

And people who don't work in a white collar office don't realize The Office is also a documentary?

Well Brooklyn Nine-Nine is a documentary too.

The primary artistic liberty these shows take is to take a decade's worth of shenanigans, compress it into one season and cut out all the drudgery in-between. Basically all the stupid "that would never happen" crap happens but spread out over 100x as long and 10x as many people.
How is it not cold blooded murder then? The bombing is a killing. It is deliberate. It is done with ample preparation time and not under fire. You said it was misuse of the term. What keeps it from being proper to not call it cold blooded

The nations can do what they want special pleading is the only argument I can see against murder but it would be an inconsistent one. Fiven the sheer number of state acts called murder completely unchallenged as such. Since WWII at least "at war" isn't an excuse for murder. While they may have called retaliatory executions for partisans war it was never called anything but murder in WW2.
This would be quite a niche item, which gets in the way of it being a cheap commodity. Might be some chinese manufacturer that does one around an aspeed chip (or a clone of it) or something, but even there it seems like old mainstream chipsets are more common in the cheap offerings.

Right, all that is true. None if it justifies giving up on encrypted email, which is based on OPEN STANDARDS and is FEDERATED. I don't care if the subject leaks, I use generic subjects when discussing private matters with friends over PGP encrypted mails. Now I understand people are not happy with the state of encrypted email, which has more to do with support of popular email providers than with GPG per-se. But suggesting we use PROPRIETARY service for which only one official ELECTRON APP exists, which they host on AMAZON WEB SERVICES, which requires me to use PHONE NUMBER to sign up, and which is just waiting for enough VC money to transform into yet another analytic company, is just travesty.

I'm pretty sure Java 1.0 running on an Amiga could handle that...
I disagree. For example, I think the world is much better off with translations of 100 Years of Solitude and The Odyssey than without them.

I know I’m glad to have read these English translations. And of course a good translator puts their own stroke of literary creativity into their translation.

I agree with you that for a full appreciation of the author’s artistry, it’s best to read the original in its native language. But that’s not always accessible.

Eg, I wouldn’t even be able to begin reading the original Beowulf despite being a native English speaker. Even something more recent like Canterbury Tales is slow-going due to the archaic spellings.
AH I see. When we talk about nodes in MongoDB they are the elements of a replica set. That is what confused me. Yes, you are right, to get the equivalent performance of a two node database server you would have to run a sharded cluster with two shards. That is definitely more nodes than the two node design you have outlined for the RAC like design.

I am not familiar with Oracle RAC architecture but casual mention of a SAN fails to recognise the cost and complexity of even the smallest SAN. On the other hand MongoDB can run on dumb disks without a SAN or RAID required (though RAID can help with performance).

With you two node system loss of a node results in a 50% loss in performance whereas with MongoDB loss of a node will result in a secondary taking over the primary role with no loss in performance. You get what you pay for.

Setting up such clusters used to be a PITA until the advent of MongoDB Atlas. Now you can set them up with a few mouse clicks.

As regards shard keys. Yes, they are immutable, but the documents they index are not. So dynamic schema properties are preserved in a sharded cluster.

Have you ever been in Gaza or the Westbank?

How these places work is that if you leave, you can never come back.

These places are awful to live in. The only people that stay there stay because they don't have a choice or for ideological reasons. That's why Christians leave moreso, they often have family that left and can get refugee status more easily.

The trend of Christians leaving is a highly localized trend. The greatest number of Christians left not everywhere in the Middle East, but in Iraq, Syria, and, a while ago, Turkey.

The events in the last sixty years that contributed the most to Christian emigration were the Lebanese civil war, the Iraq war, the Syrian Civil War, and the Nakba of 1948.

>Seems a little bold to just wade in and claim to have noticed a universal rule of government..

This is, for better or worse, the way the 'rationalist' community operates. The maximum amount of reading on any topic not directly related to computers or electronics is one or - for the truly enlightened - two pop-polsci or pop-phil books. That's all you can expect. Sometimes it extends more generally than just computing, for instance, Scott Alexander is a psychiatrist. But the spirit is the same - almost unlimited license to opine on any topic with the minimal amount of background knowledge possible in order to properly secure the status of being an ignorant (on the topic) person's smart person.

That's not to say it's entirely bad. Sometimes outside perspectives are good in that they challenge us to think in a new way about things. They ask questions with some thought that a domain expert may have trouble answering. They don't work in any particular established framework of the topic, so situating their theoretical commitments because less relevant to the topic at hand (which can also be a good thing).

They love to write and make their opinions known. That's also not a bad thing. But it doesn't inspire confidence. If you're knowledgable about a field and you see one of their posts that's either on a theory that's been covered a century ago (and refuted) or a theory that is fundamentally at odds with the discipline, it makes you skeptical. You start to think "if they're wrong about this, then what else are they wrong about?". These bloggers have all heard of the Gell-Mann amnesia effect. It's just too bad they don't realize it applies to them just as much, if not more, than to the journalists they typically decry for having no background knowledge on a topic. Every bold and poorly-argued claim you used to see in undergrad theses is now published in blog form - the only difference is these people never had a supervisor to look over their shoulder and question them.

I wrote about this phenomenon as practiced by "hacker bloggers" a little more than a year ago in this comment[0], though I think I was being a little too harsh back then, and ironically, also speaking beyond my field of knowledge.

I don't think you can blame the net infrastructure. The problem is with utility IT. Probably also not the IT directly, as it is probably understaffed or underfunded or both.

There is only one way to keep utilities safe on a public network and that would be extreme simplicity and a fitting network configuration.

That isn't the problem here and the advantage from this far outweighs the risks.

The data people share voluntarily also far outweighs stolen info.

The reality is that nobody wants to spend anything on IT and that will bite you in the ass at a later time. It is not a technical problem alone.
Numpy does have wheels available, so in theory you shouldn't need to compile to install it. You might be running into trouble due to being on an odd architecture, or by running an old pip version.

In any case the compile is most likely failing due to missing C dependencies. Getting those installed should resolve issues with compiling.

Awesome news. If anyone wants to try NetBSD today there's a public access UNIX system (est. 1987) called the Super Dimensional Fortress that runs NetBSD.

As an OS, it's managed to stay really close to the roots all these years. It has good production use cases as an operating system too, since of all the modern unix systems NetBSD probably has the most accurate rusage accounting.
Gaza is literally not occupied by Israel. Israel withdrew all troops and even banished their own citizens from Gaza. All the Palestinians had to do was not be absolute savages and attack Israel after being given their land with no strings attached.

Every single restriction put of Gaza was a direct result of the Palestinian's abuse of the disengagement to fire rockets and kidnap soldiers. All they had to do was simply live in peace, instead they proved to every watching Israeli that Palestinians are bloodthirsty savages. After the result of the disengagement from Gaza being this, only radical left in Israel even contemplates giving Palestinians sovereignty.
