I believe in the Terraform way of doing things. A lot of other people dislike the Terraform language, and then they use Pulumi because it allows them to write infrastructure in Python or JavaScript.

But I specifically DO NOT WANT my company's infrastructure to be written in a Turing-complete dynamically-typed language. I believe the Terraform language is safer.

However, one thing I don't like about Terraform is that it provides a lot of low-level APIs for cloud providers that can take a lot of glue code to string together into a real PaaS.

I solved this at my company by writing https://provose.com -- a Terraform module that a high-level API for configuring containers, buckets, databases, and distributed filesystems. Provose understands what you want to deploy and automatically figures out the needed VPC settings, security groups, IAM roles/policies/etc, Route 53 records, ACM certificates, and load balancer settings.

Apologies for the self promotion, but if you decide to try Provose, I'd be happy to help you through any issues you face :)

There are some "old" research about it...

Normalized compression distance, for example, is a good start about this approach. I've used this to classify documents in categories or even to find out the author of a document (0)

Some individuals believe it is fair to tax unrealized capital gains. How does this make sense?

Do people really think Jeff Bezos is worth 60+ billion when there is no liquidity to buy all of his stock at that price?
A radiologist would have insurance in place for malpractice that indemnifies her/him. So your suggestion that a radiologist would be motivated to use AI to reduce this risk does not seem applicable to me. The idea to run AI alongside the human tool seems to be the current default suggestion these days, now that we have collectively realised that AI cannot do anything serious on its own. Pair it up with a human and the two can work together, with some handholding. But it is a hard sell, the software is now just duplicating a capability, and all of the issues that raises of potentially having two answers to one question. As a radiologist business, you would have to dedicate manpower to investigating when the AI has a different answer. Honestly, if I had a radiology practice, considering the points above, my answer would be no.

> It's both a magic number and a threshold

Its a threshold, but not one below which capital gains stops mattering, which was the significance falsesly ascribed to the “magic number".

If you had cited the bottom of the 15% bracket instead of the top as the magic number below which cap gains don’t matter, well, “magic” would still be overdramatic but you would at leaast have something of a point. But that’s close to an order of magnitude lower.
The word "popular" is where?

"may be inferred from a firm's possesion of a dominant share of a relevant market that is protected by entry barriers"

Arguably I left out "protected by entry barriers", but that seems obvious for search.
Propublica calculates a “true tax rate” which uses the unrealized capital gains as the denominator. They don’t make any public policy recommendation in the article, but I think computing the tax rate in this way implies that the unrealized gains should be taxable income. They also mention that Senator Ron Wyden has proposed doing this.
It depends on how long it takes the weapon to lock on and align. If it takes 1s to work out the trajectory and fire, the drone just needs to change its trajectory every second.

But I guess taking down a drone is not like taking out a mortar shell. It is probably much easier with some sort of flak or even launching a net.
> So yes, thousands of miles.

Or a few miles to a quite lively island. I think the OPs point was that the observatory isn't actually far away from civilization, but instead rather close to it.
France is run by neoliberals, and ended up closer to the US than Canada. A better example of a properly-functioning healthcare system is Taiwan, or the Netherlands.

Dominant market share is reflective of being the popular consumer choice, given the easily accessible supply of other search engines.

You're splitting hairs over the word popular now.
Is the article not doing normalized compression distance already? It just finds the closest match instead of the distance, but it seems to be the same algorithm.
If a monopoly over your essential email address is the motivation, then every single provider no matter the size has a monopoly over your email address. There's no reason to limit your judgement to "companies of similar size". Would you argue that ProtonMail and Fastmail and so forth are equally responsible for your email address?

Let's go further. Is Apple a public utility? If I buy an iPhone and it's painful to lose it, doesn't Apple have a monopoly over my iPhone given that they have kill switches and update privileges?

Is Hertz a public utility? If I rent a car and it becomes very painful to lose it, doesn't Hertz have a monopoly over my essential car?
I believe it was tptacek who once commented half-jokingly that the ideal thing to do would be to leave the API open to uBlock Origin exclusively and kill it for everything else. The privileges required by that extension and others like it are indeed very powerful and often abused. This is not a problem with an easy solution, your suggestions are essentially the status quo and the industry is beginning to move on from it.
Sorry guys, I think I broke it. I wanted to test it on my motivational speech,

Even moving the ball forward is a win at this company, so I wouldn’t worry too much. You are in what’s called a blood pit. This is a room in most abattoirs below the killing floor where runoff of various kinds is collected for purposes of selling to the protein shampoo industry (mostly). Above you is a grated floor where cows roam around until they are LR’d. Every now and then, a still-ambulatory, not yet LR’d cow accidentally shits out a nugget of something valuable that it accidentally ingested, and your job is to run from place to place in the blood pit, avoiding as best you can droppings of various consistencies from above (this is impossible to do perfectly) while pocketing nuggets. If you manage to pocket a few nuggets in a day’s work, that is a good day.

Unfortunately, it seems to have gotten too depressed to run after this.
Hey, it looks like you shut it off entirely (a few seconds ago?). For what it's worth, I didn't hate it. If it's a necessary performance change, people will understand. It was nice to see HN trying an experiment; I'm sorry if my comments sounded negative.

From analyzing it today, one alarming thing I noticed was that in all recent threads with "more" links, the conversation never seemed to nest more than one or two levels deep. But the moment you go to an old thread, e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21231208#21232605, the "more" links turned out to be hiding 9+ comments.

But, like, it's not a horrible thing to constrain the comment subtree. If you were feeling like it was the way to go, my only feedback is to trust your judgement on that one. Personally, I thought it was an interesting new dynamic, even if I had my own (probably-unjustified) concerns.

Anyway, best of luck, sorry for the mistaken bug report, and keep trying new experiments! It's really cool!
What's the value of a 1999 Camaro? How much should that number influence the price of last year's minivan?

Arguing about the relevance of information to a transaction for some good is 1:1 with simply arguing about the transaction price for some good. Just haggle directly instead of in some meta fashion.
Most of those instruments retain the initial cost basis. They're a way of getting around gift taxes, not capital gains.

If you only care about fission weapons, a practically viable weapon is easy, and does not require testing.

This was demonstrated by South Africa, who developed a fission weapon, using an indigenous and entirely novel isotope separation technique and no outside help. They produced a stockpile of around five weapons, with absolutely no testing. The Vela incident often referred to is outwith the relevant timescale, being in 1979 and the weapons program ran from 1984 to 1994. The devices themselves were gun-type bombs using uranium, similar to the 'little boy' (Hiroshima) design, with improvements in safety primarily.

This was as a hedge against Soviet agression in the Angolan civil war, and they were intending to detonate one of the bombs as proof of their capability if the situation ever became desperate. As a pariah state due to Apartheid, the idea was that the US and allies would be forced to abandon their arms embargos and step in to help with conventional assistance in order to prevent World War III. This never happened, and South Africa is still the only state ever to have developed a viable nuclear weapons capability and then voluntarily given it up.

The details are available in an excellent book by David Albright of ISIS (not that one, the Institute foir Science and International Security...) at https://isis-online.org/uploads/isis-reports/documents/Revis...

isn't Bezos going beyond Karman line next month on his rocket (looks like a pretty ballsy move btw)? While BO achievements pale in comparison to Musk, may be the government decided to diversify a bit, and BO probably a better choice than SLS or United Launch - so a kind of progress in government spending, a sign of some minimal intelligence at least.
Yes, seems to be so, but never mentions it. Kind of reaching the same idea by not knowing previous research. And it might find some old pitfalls, e.g., limits of using zip to do it...
And that's the kind of innumerate thinking I don't understand. Masks aren't an either/or thing. Say masks are maybe 60% effective (there's no real consensus and good science is hard to come by). A mask-wearing vaccinated person is now 96% protected. Add that to staying outside (maybe another 75% or so?) and you get to 99%. Every bit helps, which is one of the reasons why we're reaching herd immunity.

Now, you're right, there's a cost tradeoff. If everyone is at 99% it would be pure insanity to close restaurants, say. But... masks? Leave them on, until it's dead. Again, this is the cheapest mitigation we have. Roll back every other protection first. Send people back to the office. Open up the stadiums. Start hugging again. Lift the visa restrictions. Visit the grandparents. Do all that stuff first before relaxing mask use.
> If you’re in charge or part of a customer-facing organization, you don’t need to wait for permission to talk to customers to test hypotheses

This is pretty important and seems to get overlooked.

If you're trying to kick off an initiative that benefits customers, but not in a manner that can be quantified to business stakeholders (one we've struggled with is getting management support to build tools that improve API documentation for customers who develop on our platform), reaching out directly is a useful way to gauge the landscape and come back with a better understanding of who your target customers are and what they struggle with.

That's evidence from the horses mouth that you can take to management to get sponsorship for your project.

This is not true

Edit: trying to reverse engineer the “magic”, architecture, and the failure from a varnish error message is folly, and misleads others. How do I know the comment is patently false? I ran those teams at Fastly for 3 years.

>Obviously, if we have evidence that we need better safety protocols in labs then we should expect India, as well as every other country on Earth, to follow them

From another post, the US had 1100 reported incidents in a four year period involving biologically risky agents. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/08/17/report... I don't assume the US is particularly bad about this, so I expect other countries have similar rates, I only picked India to escape claims of "whataboutism."

Dangerous research with a sketchy safety record happens worldwide. That the worst outcome potentially came from a Chinese incident does not mean they're the only ones at fault, and punishing them does little to prevent future outbreaks.

I’d be cautious. It’s fairly common for companies to establish venue by contract.
"tool assisted speedrun" is a term in video game speedruns referring to the use of software/external tools to help with speedrunning games. So imagine a drone race where everything is programmed rather than remote controlled by a pilot
They don't even claim it works on bigger military drones, but smaller drones or drone swarms. It uses a microwave beam to disable or a high energy laser to shoot down the drones. I think the bigger ones like Predator could be shot down by other drones armed with low payload missiles. Repurposed Iron Dome style defenses could also be used at shorter range.

So then isn't the issue medicare reimbursement, not FDA approval?

To be honest, this, along with several other things over the last year, has reinforced my perception that drug regulation in general is a failure and that the FDA needs to move away from an approval role (that is, approving the availability of the drug) to a truth-in-labeling role (that is, is this drug what the seller says it is).

I have a particular dislike for Apple over this - I think they set a trend of unhelpful error messages tied to obscure codes back in the 1990s.

Sadly they've been joined by Google. 'Something went wrong' could have come from the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation.
> is there a reputable basis for this?

Yes. The NSA has disclosed hoarded zero-days to Microsoft when they have fallen into the hands of people they did not like. See the Shadow Brokers incident [1]:

> the critical vulnerabilities for four exploits previously believed to be zero-days were patched in March, exactly one month before a group called Shadow Brokers published Friday's latest installment of weapons-grade attacks

Obviously, the problem with this is that the NSA were unaware their zero-days had fallen into enemy hands until the Shadow Brokers very publicly advertised the fact that they had them.

The problem is that unlike humans, corporations can be effectively immortal. It’s entirely plausible that the game can be played long enough that new laws could be passed that will ultimately never give the full amount to the IRS.

I agree with your point about Nintendo, I always thought they should release their own Steam clone that requires a $100 per year subscription before you can even buy the games. That would replace the hardware revenue and free them from the burden of making hardware. I'm guessing the reason they don't is that they're a Japanese company primarily focused on a Japanese audience who don't necessarily own gaming PCs.

But regarding the Playdate, I think your take is too uncharitable. Here's a better way to frame it: Steam is great, but it's hard for indie developers to get noticed. What if we could split off a group of customers (who want retro indie games) into their own curated mini-Steam? Developers will surely come and make games, spurred by the confidence that they can get their stuff noticed. And then more customers will come, enticed by the curated ecosystem that makes it easy to get high-quality retro indie games.
