Personally, I'd stick to kubernetes - especially as you can even pack it into VM for on-site classic deployment - avoiding too much cloud-provider-specific bits, and optionally work on optimising away the time necessary to handle it.

I assume that for whatever reasons going very close with one PaaS from any of the cloud vendors is out (I am not a fan of them, but that's specific to me being in Poland and not Silicon Valley, and I can't pay Silicon Valley prices)

You have ~25 employees, so you need to reduce toil - you can't just throw a person full time to massage and understand each custom thing.

1) Take care to run your components <https://12factor.net/> style. Even if you run them 'classic way' started from a shell script, it will make things easier to move around if necessary.

2) Don't use raw manifests - this gets tiring over time, and is prime example of "toil". Your time will be better served writing anything (whether fancy or not) that can manipulate some basic data structures and spit kubernetes resources in json format.

Once you have that, you can template your resources easily and enforce common standards and behaviours. This helps a lot especially when you don't have many employees - I'm not advocating for "employees as cogs", but if you all your applications follow a standard scheme for labelling, where credentials and data is stored, etc. - each of those small improvements reduce a bit of toil - and critical to maintaining that is removing the toil of manually keeping those standards implemented. In one job I might have spent a week tailoring a templated deployment for an application, but the next person (who was dealing with the setup for the first time ever!) configured another, similar application in one day.

It's a huge difference when all you need to start a new app is to fill in few blanks like names, maybe some credential, and maybe declare "ok, it needs a >25G temporary storage, and 5G persistent shared storage, plus should be available under this URL" and have the templates fill in the rest.

3) Implement some standards on observability and administration. It doesn't really matter whether you set up your own EFK stack/Grafana/Prometheus/Loki/Victoria Metrics/whatever or go with Datadog (ow, my wallet) or another vendor. K8s generally makes it (comparatively) easy to hook together.

Apply templating and standardisation from (2) here. Whether you're a developer or sysadmin or both, having it "just happen automagically" leads to happier people, less burnout, and ultimately more productivity.

4) Abuse the hell of k8s flexibility to get multiple deployments going on. The more expensive the underlying gear is, the more important it is. If your whole deployment is parameterised, and with things like crossplane to integrate tasks like "allocate $VENDORs postgresql offering", you can quickly setup, test/poc/do something fun/do a dog&pony show/etc. then teardown an environment. Can you do it with more classical setup? Sure. Personally I found k8s both faster in wall clock time & development time for this... and definitely less expensive.

So would you be happy to pay this “baked in” cost (which will cost you the same as paying for a subscription)?
And should all buyers be forced to pay this cost as well, even those who can’t afford it? Should we not allow any alternatives?

> Come back when you think of an excuse to trust their data without verification.

Your entire premise is based on a straw man. Nobody is blindly accepting China’s data as gospel, they are saying that it’s the only data we have.

You have presented nothing but innuendo.
As some others have said, using a low power PC without an accelerator is a perfectly good place to start.

Pytorch seems to be better documented than Tensorflow and supports a more intuitive way to use the GPU/TPU in my opinion. It also natively supports complex number types when backpropagating so no need to implement your own. It also seems like Tensorflow has issues converting python code to the graph where Pytorch basically never has issues. If you are using high-level interfaces, this shouldn't be an issues though.

Colab (and I believe Sagemaker) has free instances which have high power GPUs/TPUs. However, I prefer having access to a good graphical debugger so I develop on my local computer, then run large models on Colab. If you can afford it, I'd recommend a cheap, low power Cuda capable GPU for your local computer to develop the network, then use the IPython, cloud based solutions when memory/computer becomes limiting. They are also a fine place to start out. It's just having a graphical debugger can make you more productive.
Yes, we do, because the contrarians are correct, again. Just like they were in 2020 when everyone arguing that lockdowns weren't working were getting downvoted to hell and yelled at for "disinformation", just like when they pointed out that the models were based on stupid assumptions and that mask mandates weren't having any observable effect.

The vaccines are useless against Omicron. They don't stop people getting it. They appear to make no difference to severity (it was 25% vaxxed South Africa that pointed out everyone getting it had mild symptoms). That is a stone cold fact.

Indeed it appears to actually be the opposite - the UK, one of the only countries that publishes actual case rate data (instead of TNCC positivity ratio comparisons), shows that people who are vaccinated get Omicron at a much higher rate than those who aren't. The cause is probably an immune priming/training effect. That data is real though, it's not something you can make disappear by throwing a hissy fit when someone points it out.
Certainly you know folks that have. More commonly, you've probably known folks that replaced their tablets or laptops because of a bad battery.

Replacing a battery is definitely less waste than replacing an entire device, even if that battery has packaging.
They have a clear picture of users' social networks because of their dubious requirement that people provide them with working mobile numbers. Who speaks to whom, how frequently, during what times and what days of the week etc. Incredibly valuable and revealing data.
There is a name of the source in the article. And it literally says that Durov cooperates with FSB.

> Hypnosis is the placebo effect. I would point you to the old book persuasion and healing by Jermone Frank.

Thanks!

Well, in that vein I'd argue it's a subset of the placebo effect right? I think there are also placebo effects that have nothing to do with hypnosis. But I do think understanding how hypnosis is placebo and how it is a subset of all placebo effects could be an interesting topic to know more about.

> One viewpoint is that the ‘hypnotized’ person is ‘pretending to be hypnotized’, that it really is some combination of role-playing, daydreaming, etc.

This is one of the two perspectives that the SciShow video I linked also state. The other perspective is that it is a state in consciousness.

The neurological paper that I linked in the comments suggests it's a state in consciousness.

There were people in the YouTube comments who've experienced being hypnotized where some people were arguing for both. They claimed to have experienced that sometimes it felt like roleplaying and sometimes it felt like a change in state of consciousness.

And it makes sense, I do believe there's a link between normal roleplaying and state of consciousness change. So from a conservative perspective, what I'm interested in is to understand what the link is between: roleplaying, consciousness and the placebo effect.

I have the suspicion that it can be both. In other words, it depends on whether it's an altered state of consciousness or whether someone is roleplaying. So I suspect that the following perspectives are true (depending on the initial conditions, etc.):

1. People are roleplaying, that's it, no state in consciousness happens

2. People are roleplaying, state of consciousness changes through emotional experience of roleplaying

3. People experience a direct shift in consciousness due to the suggestions the hypnotist give and because the participant in question is highly hypnotizable

4. People are not experiencing anything

My opinion isn't super strong on it though, the evidence is still way too small. I need more evidence.
The content is of great quality that's for sure. Don't regret having a copy.
Moon orbit (from there comes the original week and month) doesn't have to be proportional to Earths rotation (day), nor any of them with Earth's orbit around the sun (year and seasons). Those divisions had some original real life meanings (it was easier to track time by moon phases, and it was important to have a clue on where a season will start for agriculture) but being more accurate meant that some of those old meanings became more decorative or convention than something necessary. And things are a bit more complicated for agriculture than just the start of the seasons anyway (plants may be flowering earlier due to climate change)

Things would had been easier if our world behaved like i.e. Stardew Valley year (4 months=seasons, 28 days/4 weeks each month, no leap years, and the start of each season mean an abrupt change of conditions)

In most countries is changing rapidly as renewables ramp up and it’s not uncommon to hear about major countries having entirely renewable days.

The important part to remember is that natural gas infrastructure is always polluting, and tends to leak a fair amount of fuel which is never even used (around me, there are estimated that this is as high as a third of the total usage). That’s all locked in when you use gas, whereas an electric stove can be powered by a mix of sources which change hourly without the owner even having to know about it.

The other thing to consider is that a professionally-managed and monitored power plant is usually better than equipment as maintained by the average person. Lots of people don’t even get their gas appliances checked once a year on average, and you’ll pretty regularly hear about leaks or fires caused by poor maintenance at apartment buildings where you’d think they’d be at least a little more responsible.
This doesn’t really look like a trustworthy publication and the post doesn’t actually point to anything specific changing on the platform. I guess anyone could say stuff on the internet these days, it doesn’t mean it’s true.
Ask HN: What information about the war do you care about?
Hi HN,

I've been unable to find a good all-in-one tool/dashboard that tracks the effects of the war (current map, economic impacts, the refugee crisis, up-to-date news stories, photo gallery, etc). I started building ukrainedashboard.com to solve this (currently an MVP).

Mostly looking for feedback on what I should add to this: what kind of information regarding the war that you wish was easier to find/keep track of? For reference, I'm in the US.

Thanks!
People are not replacing gas stoves with portable induction, surely.
Which is why it should be required (if sustainable manufacture was deemed a bugger social benefit to profit).

If Apple had to make headphones that were either robust or repairable (or both, can you imagine), they'd find a way, if only to avoid losing money on replacing broken ones.
They soon will be able to connect to your neighbour's wifi via Amazon Sidewalk
There's a balance, though. Three years without an announced release would be a long time even in the enterprise world. It's not like FDB is perfect. The way it handles cross-region replication in particular is not ideal.
Just like the WASM folks are now re-inventing application servers.
I'm not pinning anything on anyone. The parent comment claimed that "Russians like strong leaders" is a falsehood yet the history claims otherwise.
I am in a situation that I want to learn new things about programming, but at the same, I can't find anything I am interested to learn, because either they are not attractive (just another tool to solve the same problem) or I don't have opportunity to use them.

So if I (in Australia) have a meeting with people in Thailand and Slovakia over Google meet, which is absolutely an "event we want to know when they happened but don't care about where in anyway", the local time(s) are all important when scheduling it for the future, but as a record of the event, it happened in all 3 locations simultaneously.
> We don’t honor deaths that we ascribe to individual failings, which could explain, Keller argues, why national moments of mourning have been scarce.

I always think of the argument of Eliphaz in the book of Job. It’s interesting that we have this built in belief that illness is connected to moral failings.
There are a ton of third-party parts companies--which do tend to be somewhat cheaper, albeit of probably more variable quality. So unless you assume there's some global conspiracy of spare parts pricing, you're probably seeing a reflection of a bunch of piece parts actually costing more than the assembled appliance/car/etc.
If this happens, we're probably going to need more "standard" battery sizes.

I've noticed Chinese manufacturers using the Nokia BL-5C as a de facto standard for portable electronics (bluetooth speakers, radios, game consoles, etc.), but that's a bit small for a modern smartphone.
I see that as pretty easy, ship pre-paid vouchers to participants or digital ones. Have them scanned and then billed to customer. Nothing complicated with big enough operators if they want to sell such service.
Maybe if the article says "lizard brain" and "noxious fumes" enough times, the propaganda will sink in to those pesky gas users.
I still look to the Galaxy S5 Active[1] for a phone that puts to the lie the claims that smart devices need to entirely lose ports and functionality in order to be water resistant. Tidily enough it had all 3 of the so-called 'must go' features and was still water resistant.

1. MicroSD card

1. Headphone Jack

1. Removable battery

If it was possible in 2014 and the days of Micro USB, it's possible today.

Several years of blocking attempts hardly count as “untouched” in my book, but neither WhatsApp nor Signal shared anything either; in fact I don’t think any Western social network is in compliance in any practical sense.
> is universally considered...

No.
It sounds like you are referring to a replay attack.

Mental model tweak: The signals aren't for a specific location, they are world-wide. So the "for Las Vegas" part doesn't work.

Replay attacks are just a kind of denial of service. In that case, you may as well just use jamming. Spoofing attacks are far more dangerous, and cryptographic signing defeats them effectively.
Is Sennheiser going bust? Can't the pro market sustain them?
> Taken all together, the large body of literature with consistent findings indicate there may be significant benefits to lowering the total amount of air pollutant exposure one receives over a lifetime.

Dr. Attia is someone who is willing to take -- and prescribe to his patients
-- extreme and difficult measures on the expectation that they could increase longevity. In this article he mentions the benefits of using a HEPA air filter for everyday life, and I would guess that he does that.

And he is a careful researcher. So I can take some comfort that he does not feel that there's sufficient benefit to wearing a respirator in daily life. He is the kind of nerd that wouldn't be much deterred by people judging him harshly for it.
> 99% of the time you'll be better off putting a docker container on a single box.

Sorry, what did you mean here? This doesn't make a lot of sense.
I understand the philosophy of science just fine. The problem with Nature articles is not that they are mostly right but a little bit wrong around the edges in ways other scientists will soon refine. The problem is they are often no better than science fiction. They are wrong, wrong at their core, the authors and editors know they are wrong and nobody cares because the conclusions are ideologically useful. It's not specific to Nature of course. Science as a whole has a massive problem with such papers. Way too many researchers/academics like to blow this problem off as just the normal scientific process - it's not.
What’s missed in these discussions is these regulations had a point to them. It’s obvious Uber driving around without passengers increases congestion. Really look at AirBnb, Bird, etc and they all offload externalities from the company and it’s customers to everyone around them.

When the basic building model is to break the law, chances are the law had a point and people are going to want a return to normal eventually. The only way they survive long term is if the general population feels it’s the new normal is a useful tradeoff. In the short term they can massively subsidize users, but long term the same basic economic reality sets in so they need some actual innovation.
This is a claim from a Russian member of parliament. Given that they all have been selected by Kremlin, and are there to just rubber stamp whatever has been sent to them from the Kremlin, they are all just nobodies without any knowledge or authority. There is no reason to trust this claim at the moment.
It is true that in my opinion Durov himself is a bit shady and some actions of Telegram were a bit weird (i.e. in the beginning of the war against Ukraine), but right now it's Telegram is certainly the easiest way in Russia to access independent voices.
Because he's been in exile since 2014.

And we have always been at war with Eastasia.

The Shuttle program was started in the 1970s. Reusable launch vehicles have never been considered impossible, merely inefficient.

For us the “one flat surface” is about cleaning instead of aesthetics. We cook all the time and out range constantly has crap spilled on it. Being able to wipe it down in a quick pass is so nice.
We need a new stove, been trying to get an induction. Mostly for the convenience for cleaning, and fast boiling.

Can’t find them anywhere. Particularly one with a double oven. Going to install the gas line because there are way more options available.

I think the purpose of stories as art is to explore morality, not necessarily to teach it. Find the conflicted decisions people are forced to make in extreme circumstances and follow the result. And in the end, we all learn from that together, so maybe there is teaching after all, but not in a prescriptive way.
Syntactically distinct. &foo has different type for function vs pointer to function.

Also makes life difficult for the optimiser; I think solvably as long as the new pointer is indeed static.

In terms of framework,, Pytorch seems to be better documented than Tensorflow and supports a more intuitive model for GPU/TPU compute in my opinion. It also natively supports complex number types when backpropagating so no need to implement your own. It also seems like Tensorflow has issues converting python code to the graph where Pytorch basically never has issues. It can take me 1/3 less time to program using Pytorch because of this.

The opposite is the truth. The signal servers don't know who talks to whom, and they chose phone number as identifier specifically so the app could use your local address book for contacts and not store your contacts server side.
What made Stripe, PayPal etc. to change view on Crypto?

In ASP.NET's case I think DI is useful for the way the framework is structured. It just makes it easier to register services using DI container and call the code in controllers and other services.

You can, how ever, to not use DI at all. Write the business logic in controllers. Write business logic in static classes. Write business logic in regular classes but instead of registering in DI container you instantiate them yourself.
I would be much happier with a law requiring this, or a tax if this doesn't happen.

Windows, MacOS, Linux, and other systems receive updates nearly forever even on ancient hardware. The choice to not do this with Android or ChromeOS is one Google made pretty deliberately.

Keeping hardware abstracted from higher layers has been a solved problem for at least a half-century now.

It's an economic inefficiency that's exploiting information asymmetry between Google and consumers.
Well, it benefits me. I don't want to yield data I don't need to and I will not accept any godforsaken cookie.
