Paid for by corporations who spend lots of money lobbying the government.
Read the literature from your nearest HR department and there is a good chance you'll see this term being used in earnest.
Useless is a strong word in this context. Which parts or features of k8s are useless complexities? It's not like some random junior dev pulled a bunch of features out of a hat and implemented them. There was a ridiculous amount of thought put into its features and I can't think of a single complexity that is useless or even one that is useful but could be done in a more elegant /less complex way.

Yes, it is complex, but there are lots of use cases where it is the most elegant and least complex solution. Yes, it definitely does not make sense to use it for a lamp stack deployed to one server, but there are use cases where it's a huge improvement (e.g. Spark on Hadoop is extremely complex and clunky when compared to spark on kubernetes).

May I suggest “yacht-feet automation”? It focuses on increasing the yacht feet of Zuckerberg, and doesn’t do anything else right?
People want to be data driven until the data goes against their feelings. You see the same in SF, the narrative was that crime has spiked during COVID and after seeing stats that it didn't, the new narrative is that the perception of crime is still important, the data didn't matter
10 redirects is unusual. Is there an SSO in place? That said Salesforce log in process should not have more than two redirects from what I have seen.
Point 2. is relevant, point 1. not really, unless one isn't willing to pay for the specific OS version that allow live kernel updates.
There is a whole lot of joking dismissal of systemic racism going on in these comments.

Are you making the point you intended?
It tends to happen with startups I think because developers know the startup is likely not going to be around for long, or they will move on in a couple years anyway. So why not shoehorn whatever tech you want and have that skill in your resume? Of course now the startup will need to hire for that tech when you leave and the cycle continues...
I agree, I have a friend who worked on early designs for Virgin Galactic and he talks about many of the differences (and benefits) of the Virgin design over Blue Origin and SpaceX.
The title of the article completely devalues it in my eyes. How does the author know that the reader does not want to know something else? This seems to me to be a very paternalistic attitude. What is not discussed at all, for example, are cross-vaccinations with different vaccines, e.g. AstraZeneca + mRNA.
I am not sure what a "page" means in this sense.

Does the page "belong" to the ad campaign, or does it "belong" to the user/company?

If it is the former, then I can understand why facebook would close it when the ad campaign is over. If it is the latter, then it should not be tied to the campaign, and should not be closed when the campaign is over.

In the latter case, if I set up a page about a product/service and decided to pay for some advertising to drive traffic to that page, I wouldnt expect my page to be deleted after the ad spend is discontinued. In fact, I would argue that the ad spend in that case was a waste of money - all the users that I have driven to my page, are no longer able to access that page. As an individual, I would likely seek recompense through the courts in that case. T&Cs don't give you immunity from being a dick - at least in the EU. Not sure what the situation is for companies.
Apologies, I should have used single quotes. But the comparison to source code isn't a valid one, it is more similar to including graphics assets for example. Just because you include an icon in a GPLv3 codebase doesn't mean ypu need to include the original photoshop project.

The fact that people can choose not to use a product has nothing to do with whether it is a monopoly or not.
How universal is it? It had made it's way to Australia by at least the early 90's.
I don't believe they use regular expressions.
Are the associated costs passed to ratepayers at cost or is there some allowance for a positive investment return for PG&E shareholders?
I switched to BBEdit after 10 years of being an emacs user. The main reason was I could actually use all the features of BBEdit, versus emacs where I could never remember the commands. BBEdit also had commands for most of the text transformations where I would have to break out elisp or go looking for someone else who had solved the problem. Eventually features like code folding and editing files over SSH locked me in for good.

The main issue over the years was that BBEdit's support as a code editor was never as good as emacs. Syntax coloring was anemic and it couldn't indent lines etc. I'll have to try out the LSP support because that might address that issue.
We already have a social credit system, it's called the credit system and a criminal background check.

We also already subject immigrants to medical inspections and forced vaccinations.
They can if the right conditions are met - see ‘arc flash’
I think the reason why AirBnb in its early days was so cheap is that there were more hosts who let for fun and to socialise. Now that the novelty has fizzled out, the market is left with hosts that let for profit, with prices now reflecting the true costs of operating a hostel.

Same thing can be said for ride sharing platforms.

That's not resume driven development though, that's picking the best tool for the job when you've outgrown the current solution.
We are beginning to see the real costs of Global warming, the exact thing activists were bull horning about and the same thing corporations were denying.

I know people who have bought properties specifically to put them on Airbnb, 24/7/365. They believe that they can get more money out of the property that way than if they put it up for a more traditional long-term rental. If it weren't for Airbnb, they wouldn't have bothered, and those properties would likely have ended up being bought as a primary residence or leased as a long-term rental home.

I don't think most people object to the idea of people (short-term) renting out a room in the place where they live, or even renting out their in-law unit, or (perhaps slightly more controversially) renting out a vacation home while they aren't there. But turning a residential property into a year-round short-stay hotel does indeed reduce the housing supply.

Not sure how to answer your question about hotels. I don't know if business is worse for them, or if there are indeed more travelers than before.
What do you think Equifax, LexisNexis, criminal background checks, person-search websites, and automated account termination are? "Social credit" only seems like some foreign concept because it was coined describing a foreign society - it's more difficult to look inwards at what already exists.
Where is the fraud in this context?
How would your thing even work? You'd have to provide an AirBNB link plus legal tenants have papers.
Agreed, and there are plenty of alternatives that people can and do use to send garbage to one another that arent fb and its centralized brethren.
The whole thing is estimated to be around $80-90B (probably more, given the current inflation).

With the money already allocated, plus if they had managed not to waste 25B out of that 30B (and the fraud was only 5b), they would have had enough money to get at least half of it done....

Get a major piece of infrastructure done, and help with global warming/emissions goals.

But, no. Not in Cali. And that's why nothing gets build. Sheer, Government waste at work... The state is being led by trust-fund babies, that found everything ready, and never had to work for it, and they are just squandering all that fortune.
Why not? I.e. is that from experience on working on anti malware remediation systems?
That's just weird, does being of jewish heritage make you incapable of being a nazi? There's certainly a ton of polish and slavic nazis. What does Andy being a gay Asian man have anything to do with the claims of him being a white supremacist?
> Maybe you all can help me out. For someone who's not yet vaccinated, what's the point?

The point is that COVID-19 and its variants is very happily spreading through the unvaccinated population.

And that even if you don't die from it, we now know that a lot of people come down with incredibly serious short-term symptoms, and serious long-term symptoms.
In theory rate hikes have to go through California regulators but, at the same time, the company is allowed a certain rate of return.

In practice I have no clue how it works out though.

> Further, hotel taxes used to fund a great deal of the city, but Airbnbs are not subject to the tax, so the city's finances are struggling as well.

That's really San Diego's fault, though. Many cities and states have classified Airbnbs as hotels for taxation purposes, or created new (taxed) categories specifically for them. For example, Hawaii charges a "transient accommodations tax" of 10.5%, as well as a general excise tax of 4%, and counties can add more to that if they want.
Yet plenty of HPC installations rather use IBM's xl or NVidia's PGI compiler suits.

So they definitly don't agree you can do the same with free software.

If you're enjoying your Kubernetes, then have at it, but in my opinion it sounds like Stockholm syndrome.

The thing is so complicated that even the guys who wrote it probably can't figure it out.

I myself would rather sew together .BAT files, CORBA and COBOL into a shambling software frankenstein before I'd even consider using Kubernetes and get sucked into that mess.

But seriously, 99 percent of us, even on HN, don't have the problems that kubernetes is trying to solve.

Why do we put ourselves through this when we should know just looking at the thing that it's just going to be a nightmare when things go wrong?
"the Nieman Lab chose to use Disqus, a platform that allows for anonymized accounts"

It seems clear that Disqus doesn't actually allow anonymous accounts. They apparently just limit who can see your name - which creates the trap this journalism professor fell into, thinking she was anonymous when she wasn't.
We donated to six charities and I ended up learning a lot (from a position of significant ignorance) about the charity landscape. I was shocked to find out that $33 per month can fund a full undergrad scholarship for a student.

There are very few slippery slopes and too much fear about them.

Property ownership, especially real estate, is limited in many ways. Try depositing asbestos in your condo and see how far you get.
Interesting enough testes are ranging from £50-250 and usually u need few, even self-test kits have similar range. I wonder is there a way to have a really cheap tests (£3-5) ?

I guess it would be interesting to find out PCR test cost break down.
I've heard several PhDs use it. They were white English speakers and liberal in their political leanings. It comes across as even more pretentious than high schoolers aping the latest wokeness.
By your definition every virus out there is gene therapy.
Typically in markets like CA and TX you will have a rate case go to the public utility commission. I'm more familiar with Texas' approach (it was a data source for my dissertation); the idea is to let the companies charge enough to cover reasonable costs.
This is a perfect example of "be careful what you wish for". The Wired position seems to be "just put more resources into policing speech, which is a good and necessary activity". My hunch is that cases like these (false positives, at least, as currently judged by the current authorities) will proliferate just as the criteria for judging what constitutes unacceptable speech do. I would challenge the would-be censors to define specifically, in a way not requiring an additional consultation with them for more infusions of judgement, just what types of utterances that they want to suppress, and why. The closer one gets to this, the more the case for censorship will dissolve. Tl;dr: they are complaining about ambiguity in the implementation of the solution, while having failed to define the problem.
.JCL files, not .BAT files and: yes.
That is still, you know, categorically not exploding like a gas line, which, you know, in recent memory blew an entire neighborhood of 38 homes off the map. Hitting a buried line with a backhoe is unpleasant enough, sure, but you're not destroying dozens of buildings in one go.
Where tax money goes? Hair gel?

It's one of the highest taxed state in US with raising crime, poverty, filth, dying cluture, political hipocrisy and accelerating exodus to lower taxed states.
You're missing the point. There's no cost effective way to provide the computer with the complete, high quality data necessary to execute the checklists.

From an ethical rather than a legal standpoint, I'd argue that when you use stock as collateral to secure a loan you are in fact realizing a gain. This is a common practice and the stockholders then deduct the coast of loan service from the tax liability that they do incur. It's kind of a racket.
You can only make that judgment for yourself. Assuming that your judgment works for everyone is highly presumptuous.

For myself, I see less risk in going the route where I may not even get COVID at all and risk actually getting it, rather than having a 100% chance of injecting myself with a vaccine that I don't trust.
>I personally think Governments should encourage this kind of endeavors from their citizens as that fosters the kind of people who could become better innovators and ultimately benefitting all.

I definitely get where you're coming from.

Personally, I got into electronics because my Nintendo DS broke and my parents wouldn't buy me a new one. I now have a EEE degree and a pair of businesses that I would have never been able to set up without the STEM knowledge that I was forced to learn to get emulators on my PSP etc.

Publishing good repair guides would definitely be a positive step in the right direction that encourages more kids to do the same and actually succeed. The knowledge out there on Reddit, YouTube and forums is mostly incorrect, harmful and spread by people who don't actually perform the repairs themselves. iFixit is good but sparse, especially for older hardware.

I've thought about uploading some videos to YouTube going over both the theory and practice of diagnosis/repair, but I doubt I'm the first person to come up with this idea despite not being able to find any of them. I suspect that the algorithm will favour content from creators with high production values, good presenting skills and a regular upload schedule over and above expertise in an extremely specific area of electronics repair.

I mean, some of that is true, some is false - the question remains though, what does that have to do with the burying of electric lines to prevent fires?

Short answer is no. At least if you're approaching unknown environment

If you been introduced - matters less. Could be positive convo point.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the release notes yet. I've always thought that Bare Bones' release notes read like a love letter to their customers. I love the little bits of humor and personal touches in them too.
It would be helpful to list what you consider to be the primary commercial solutions in each category. A lot of these categories I am unfamilar with by name but would understand if I saw some concrete companies or products listed alongside them.
1. First is background tasks. Foreground is the stuff that needs you to actively work on them. Background simply needs you to start them. Background usually involves approvals, designs, verifying whether a bug is on my code or another, code reviews.

The background stuff takes priority, because otherwise they DDoS my brain and make me freeze with the amount of things I have to get done today. The cost of not doing a background task increases in time too. Some say don't open emails first thing in the morning but mine is always at 0 mail before the daily stand up starts. Background stuff is usually easy and important.

2. Next is finishing. Things that are 90% done, just wipe them clean. Bugs that can be fixed in 5 mins, esp. typos.

3. Then mandatory stuff. Taking out the trash, securing food for the entire day, whatever I told my boss I'd do that day. Get that done first.

4. Then long term stuff. If you're busy putting out fires you may not get here, but this is what you do when you've gone this far.

Long term stuff needs a lot more explanation. I have a few 5 year plans. They're broken down further into 1 year, 1 month. I split scheduling into daily, weekly, and milestone based. The key here is that you prioritize things that make everything else easier. For me, spiritual plans are done daily, physical health weekly, other career stuff and money are milestone based.

Examples of milestone based is setting up DB for a side project, or write some template files. I put reading & summarizing a book as the same milestone, because it doesn't make sense to summarize that book a month after reading it.

Do the daily thing first. Schedule the weekly thing (e.g. get a fitness trainer or set up a notification). Only one milestone thing at a time, then figure out the next one you want to hit. A milestone thing can take several days. Don't pressure yourself to do it all in one day, but everything else is just a distraction until you get it done.
> You can only make that judgment for yourself. Assuming that your judgment works for everyone is highly presumptuous.

Yet people who refuse to get vaccinated seem to have no problem making this judgement for other people that they are likely to spread COVID to, when they fall ill.
You don't have to do those for day to day living, attending school, getting on a plane, most employment, entering a grocery store, a pub or daycare for your kid. These will have to be scanned to work and will be able to be turned off. USA seems to be slow rolling towards it but look at France and UK just this week. Life ending fines, 6 month jail time if you enter one of these places without it. No exemptions for those that aquired natural immunity either.
Hm, I think the the other poster didn't really mean the put the communication medium in the spotlight here and was just referring to police brutality tongue in cheek.

That's my impression atleast, so I'd guess you agree.
Exactly. Gas can leak and build up for hours or days, slowly accumulating enough chemical energy to create a massive explosion. At least hypothetically. And there are huge explosions on record as you point out.

An electric line is not even in the same category. Any comparison is silly and ignorant.

I think Bezos and Branson are just lagging Musk in execution. But that does not mean theirs are vanity projects. In the long run, Bezos plans to create a platform like AWS for space launch. And it's OK if it happens by 2025 or 2030. SpaceX, for all the wonderful things it has achieved, won't be able to cater to all space launch requirements. There needs to be a competition.

I will admit I had never heard about this service till I saw this announcement.

Seems like a cloud-hosted SaaS (or AI/ML as a service?) solution that let you build deep learning AI/ML models written in Jupyter notebooks that ran on their cloud infrastructure?

I'm not sure how this differentiates from, or competes against, very similar AI/ML offerings from the larger public cloud providers (Azure Machine Learning comes to mind, though I'm sure AWS and GCE have something similar.)
The paid, legal-oriented, archiving service Perma.cc that Harvard Law runs actually lets you upload your own PDFs and screenshots in addition to allowing Perma.cc's bots capture webpages. Of course, since you could upload anything the difference is made clear in the UI.

In a legal context, simply attesting to the validity of a screenshot is really common. So when that functionality is used Perma.cc is operating more as a permanent file storage service than a trusted archive.

Regardless, this does go a long way to solving the problem of dynamic sites.

The creator of this site made a really interesting video about the gravity fields in Super Mario Galaxy: https://youtu.be/QLH_0T_xv3I

Among other things I was surprised to learn that Mario's collision shape is a sphere rather than the more standard cylinder or capsule shape used for the player character in most games, which simplifies the physics when gravity changes direction. When you look at his character model the proportions make more sense once you know that they were designed to fill out a spherical shape. How many companies would change the character design of their most iconic franchise to make their physics engine simpler?
