1. MongoDB is not complex, the driver structure sucks.

Example Go's mgo driver by Gustavo Niemeyer was simple and effective, but abandoned.
The official drivers is unnecessarily complicated.
And Go's need to have "context" everywhere adds to this, but MongoDB is not complex.
Idk I'm not some super genius and picking up MongoDB was really easy.
Querying (aka aggregation pipelines), you have to think of that as "pipes in bash". It's in the words aggregation pipelines. find | groupby | sort | filter | select.
Something like that. It's not SQL it's different, but not complex, sorry.

Wow. So what you are saying is that someone with knowledge of a company’s internal private package dependencies would be able to hijack their build process by publishing a higher-numbered version of the same package to the public PyPi? And even if the build system explicitly references the package version number, part of the time the package would be taken from the public PyPi instead of the company’s own package server?

How do you mitigate this, other than just totally blocking access to the public PyPi? Shouldn’t everyone be blocking access to PyPi, then, and only be relying on their own private package server?
I think a lot of the criticisms of Java are motivated by developers trying to get paid for what they do. If you can jump to a new language while casting the old language as old, inefficient, etc you can, at least temporarily, command higher pay.
To cite from the article (open letter? petition? whatever):

> a community full of racist, sexist, xenophobic, and hateful speech that has been linked to white-supremacist violence such as the Buffalo shooting last month

So the question is not what the toxicity does to the surface web, but what people influenced by it will do to other people.

Give Skaffold a shot, takes a lot of the pain out of running locally. I think of it as a simple wrapper around Docker, Kubernetes, Helm and Port-Forwarding (plus other options I don't use) that makes it easy to use the same build/deploy definition to work locally or build/deploy in CI/CD.

Couple examples:

- Build the images that need it with "skaffold build"

- Can watch for changes are rebuild automatically when you "skaffold dev"

- Can automatically detect your services (or arbitrary) ports and forward them when working locally

- Advanced features like profiles and modules for supporting multiple environments

Someone who really buys that "dozens lines of code" will definitely has no idea what kind of complexity it was about.
This is that I have to use yaml to configure k8s. Every k8sish tooling has it's own yaml API, including helm, gitops, argocd and friends, so you end up having a bunch of brittle and very hard to understand and maintain yaml files ... Sigh
Trolling a toxic community diverts their hating effort towards false targets. It might not be science, but it is potentially useful.
Having experienced many Word documents full of deployment instructions and screenshots on how to deploy software, a few lines of YAML has been amazing for me :)

But no doubt there are other tools that are even better.
Extra layers, debugging things that are ephemeral, and overlay networks.
It also says "we, the AI community, currently lack community norms around their responsible development and deployment". So they don't have a test, but if they had one then GPT-4chan would fail it.

I prefer Dr. Oakden-Rayner's "this would never pass a human research ethics board" as an argument. But in the time where anyone can be an AI researcher on a hobby budget, without review by an ethics board, maybe a "test of reasonableness" or guideline of some sort would be useful to have.
I have 2:

1. We build our own custom build system, because there is no CI that can do actual DAGs (maybe a few). A custom Kubernetes operator that parses Jsonnet files to create 100s of CRDs and pods to achieve extreme parallelization. EKS was 144$/mo (now 72$) but no info on master node types. Using watch endpoints with hundreds of pods did not scale well. They had to bump up the master node instances to c5.18xlarge, but same price for managed. But figuring out it was needed to do just scale-up took days. One c5.18xlarge is 2k$ month, and EKS runs at least 3 for HA. So it's a horror story for them. But we also had 100s of worker nodes so it might offset some of them.

2. Similar to CI, we allowed devs to deploy all microservices (~80) from any branch so that they can port-forward and use them. All of them had Ingress endpoints. Days after headaches and frustrations, it turns out nginx ingress generates megabytes of configuration whenever a new deployment occurs, forks a new subprocess with new cfg, kills the other connections. When it's done often, it takes 30GB of memory when 50 developers use it (~4000 pods) and it often dies and restarts. Similar story for Prometheus, kube-state-metrics; they do not like short-lived containers and hug on memory.
Does it work on obfuscated calls? For example, a base 64 encrypted string that gets decrypted and then passed to a shell.

Altough, I guess in that case, the shell call itself is suspicious.

What if the shell call itself is obfuscated?
Not the least surprised. By accepting the EULA and using the service free of monetary charge, you are instead paying with the contents of your e-mails and adress-book.
It's The Register. If there's a bad pun somewhere remotely within reach, they'll use it. I don't think it reflects an anti-Chinese bias, just a deliberately irreverent style.

After Decades of Searching, 1898 Film of New Orleans Mardi Gras Is Found
I'm not deep on Node, but this sounds like a GIL thing.
The same could be said of RvW - inventing new laws was simply the case of installing new justices - the constitution has existed much longer than RvW, so removing it isn't as much a problem for "settled law" than creating it in the first place.

And I think the point here was that RvW was not on strong settled foundations.
It's only biased if you think of these technologies as teams to cheer or boo. If you just want to be pragmatic and get things done then knowing the pitfalls is valuable.
Huh, I watched GPT-4chan’s creators video and the whole time I was thinking “this is really in the spirit of 4chan, I’m sure they loved it”, I imagine the actual 4chan user who would be upset about it is few and far between.

That seems like the only real “test of reasonableness“, would the person be upset to find out they were talking to an AI.

Beyond everything else, the entire setup made it clear it wasn’t a real person. This lead the site on a hunt to figure it out.

I would imagine few of the signatories have even visited the site let alone spent time there to get a sense of the community.
Thanks, that's good to know. Interestingly, iOS has that setting as well but it doesn't work reliably.
Following an article on HN a week ago or so, one could argue that we'd need to prove three things: agency, perspective and motivation. If the AI device decides on its own to do or not do something; has and idea of its own place in the world; and wants to achieve something in that world. then we might as well call it sentient.

Interestingly, a web crawler seems closer to sentience following this logic than most AI.

For microcontrollers, my go-to is a debugger (for complicated/large code or when real-time trace is needed e.g. moving parts) or blinky LED (simple code or tight memory constraints). print() is pretty far down on the list unless I'm flashing via USB and also already using serial communication.

Disclaimer: I build hardware debuggers and am obviously biased.
4chan is light years beyond the point where people just posted "Hitler did nothing wrong" to piss off the righteous.

People acting like hateful idiots for fun eventually brought actual hateful idiots. This brought people who like to spread their ideas to actual hateful idiots.
It would, but then it'd lose the light-gathering advantage you get from a larger sensor. There is no free lunch.

Also, for the sensor to have the same resolution as a full-frame sensor means smaller pixel sites, which requires a smaller circle of confusion for the same perceived quality, which puts more pressure on the optics.
That is good to know, thank you!
TLDR: Complexity.

The deprecation lifecycle, and running ingress controllers in an automatic scaling group.

The first isn't as much of an issue if you have a (partially) dedicated team for managing your clusters, but can be prohibitively expensive (effort / time-wise) for smaller organisations.

The second highlights a bigger problem in K8s in general. I'll have to give a little background first:

If you run an Nginx ingress controller on a node that's part of an ASG — i.e. a group where nodes can disappear, or increase in number — you will experience service disruption to a small percentage of your requests, every time a scaling event occurs. This is caused by a misalignment between timeout values for your load balancer and Nginx, which can not be fixed:

* https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/issues/6281
* https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/issues/6791
* https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/issues/7175

The fix is to only run the controllers on nodes that reside in a separate statically sized group, and perform updates to them out of hours when necessary :|

I'll leave you to decide on whether that's a fix or not, but the larger point it highlights is how _theoretically_ everything's great in K8s, but the headaches introduced by the complexity often make it not worth it.

Another example is pod disruption budgets. These are needed because the behaviour of K8s when instructed to shutdown a node is, well, to shutdown the node. Seems reasonable, until you realise that it doesn't handle moving the workloads off that node _first_. No, at some point later, the scheduler realises the pods aren't running and schedules them somewhere else. So you use a combination of PDBs to tell K8s that it must keep n pods of this deployment running at all times, and distribution rules to tell it pods must run on different nodes. This solution falls apart when you have pods that should only have a single instance running.
Taking a month long vacation in summer would leave exactly zero days off for the rest of the year, for most people I know (not counting weekends and holidays).

Incorrectly, but i see it.
You don't think the toxicity of 4chan has ever leaked outside of 4chan? It's not just the web it leaks out into, it leaks out into real life and people die.
But it does have way to query, if you of course only know SQL and didn't bother to learn the MongoDB way to query then for you, the uninformed outsider, it might seem complex.
But so does ArangoDB or Neo4j or GraphQL.

Like, if you were never exposed to rxjs and are now trying to build things with it doing

$stream.pipe(
switchmap(),
filter(),
etc(),
)

It does seem more complex than

stream.map().filter().etc()

but it's only so because you haven't put in the effort to learn that way.
I wonder how this kind of schematics would sound like when using a screen reader. Hopefully the schematics can be passed if the screen reader struggles to read it, or read an "alt" alternative text instead. But I doubt it. After seeing how a person uses a screen reader, I think using a spreadsheet is sometimes more accessible than ASCII art because I guess screen readers cannot interpret ASCII characters in terms of columns and lines.

If I would have to document a table into the code, I would try to use as little ASCII characters as needed, in order to not confuse the screen reader.

> Well, where would you draw the line?

See this is the trick, the sleight-of hand - is draws you into accepting a simplistic falsehood: that a specific line has to be, should be or can be drawn.

Medicine is not law, and law is not code. Or at least, when done well they behave differently.

there is no sense in a code `if (fetus_weeks <= 16) return true else return false;` being law and then being medicine. That's 2 category errors right there.

A decision between doctor and patient based on specific circumstances is what's called for.

Uric acid is a metabolite of protein. All the N's in it is the giveaway since the liver is incapable of alchemical transformation. Uric acid is a byproduct of any cell metabolizing protein.

Fructose, or "fruit sugar", is the main carbohydrate in fruits and vegetables. If you are on a low-carb "keto" diet (keto is <5% carbs, most low-carb diets are no where near ketogenic) you probably get more carbs from fructose than any other source. High-fructose corn syrup added to things is associated with fatty liver but there's a very long way between guzzling gallons of soda pop and blaming a normal natural ingredient our bodies are tuned to utilize for all problems.
The question is, how many other companies do that? Would be great if more companies could go through their used libraries and spend $500k. Github doesn't have to make up for all the other users not paying.
Yes, much worse is possible.

Any good AI/ML language-model implementation will produce results indistinguishable from those of a human...

And that is (even in the best of current civilisation) a wide range of capacity and behaviours, the folly of which is usually limited only by societal pressure.
It seems like these creators and others like Tim pool, have found a sizeable niche audience that really supports them (in part they are alienated by the mainstream and the alt right welcomes them).

It’s weird how hippies have become conservatives if they didn’t go woke.
Why does the media's political bias always seem to be the antithesis of the party in power? To scapegoat the failures of each administration to actually use their power for the public good. I mean, the same media that was apparently run by a vast left-wing conspiracy for years is suddenly right-wing? Did they just change hats?

What accomplishment does Biden have that's going to counterbalance how pathetic his administration's response to the repeal of Roe v. Wade appears? It's become a meme among the left that the only thing the Democrats had prepared in response were fundraising letters.
Problem was around that time most computers had less than 128Mb...

It is important to note that AI research is mostly ethically neutral. It only becomes an ethical issue once someone actually decides to implement it in real life. At this point, the ethic issues is on the person who decided to do it. Engineers who work on a self-driving car who killed someone did their best; the responsibility is on the person who made the decision "It's good enough, let's roll it on the streets". Well, it wasn't good enough but you decided to do it anyway, and now put the blame on the engineers.
A bit of insider info from the UK on this one :) UK Catholics believe that life begins moment of conception and therefore generally oppose abortion (apart from extreme cases e:g mother might die, baby might die anyway, baby will suffer badly). Opposition to abortion generally goes with desire for better support of troubled mothers, but whether in practice this practically results in improved services seems doubtful. Apparently the stats say 90% of UK married Catholics actually use contraception. And parents quietly say to their teenagers "If you can't be good, be safe" ;). Gay marriage is something some clergy go about but the "silent majority" of Catholics is liberal on gay and trans issues I think, believing that committed love for each other counts more than what gender a couple are. So what you say ought to happen, seems to me does happen in the UK in my experience. However, what happens in the USA is a different matter. :)
You're not alone. It's my daily driver and I like it very much.
Thanks again for your answer. I am familiar with the difference between Chrome and Chromium.

"that needs to be compiled manually" => I thought this contained chromium binaries : https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-sn...

"I do think a stable or beta branch of Chrome is your best option" => thanks for the advice. What are your thoughts on the privacy leaks of chrome affecting security? Is that a fair concern?

I also read somewhere that some time ago chrome was scanning the hard drive of the host. This seems fairly bad as well, if correct.
I'm guessing they won't answer. Separate accounts and such only works for assets you already owned or gifts/inheritance. Even then, the court will factor those in and likely increase the amount you owe in child support or alimony on your income because you're less needy. There's really not much you can do about anything you've earned during the marriage or after (alimomy). The only stuff you could do would be arguing why you deserve more of it based on things like future earning potential, lifestyle, child support, etc. But usually the bread winner is at a disadvantage for these arguments.

Presumably for India you meant Indonesia.

We don't know whether they came via Sulawesi or Java, but both are Indonesian now. Both routes involved multiple substantial water crossings, even when sea levels were lowest.
We live in an era devoid of authenticity or reality.
These days I tend to think that code should contain guides and markers so developers can find their way, but actual documentation is best placed in separate files outside of the code.
> The amount of people for whom the hate is deserved and not just a knee jerk reaction is probably trivial though (at least once you include Typescript and ES6). Modern JS is not a bad language and it's time for hating on it to go out of fashion.

I'm not saying it's a bad language any more than I'm saying that strawberry ice cream is bad. I'm merely stating the fact that there's a non-trivial amount of people who abhor strawberry ice cream and JS. I find your reply, that strawberry ice cream is perfectly fine, a strange one.

“Does this guy ever quit?”. In relation to the speed of the film, and the way the story is presented with an ever increasing suspense/action, The Fugitive reminds me of Billy Friedkin's films, The French Contact and The Exorcist (and maybe To Live and Die in L.A.), they are films that simply do not let you breathe, and you leave the theater with the certainty that you have just lived a unique experience.

'right' needs to be 'inherent'. There is no 'inherently right' in life. So where does that come from that you think there is a 'right' in life?

Yes. Also the benefits that come with inhabiting a space. If I look at a pile of tools on a workbench for example but I cannot move my head I might not know what I'm looking at. Being able to move around an environment, and choose subconsciously how to move around the environment, to fill in details and gaps in understanding is a step forward.
There are lots of different fibres with different functions, and I have ended up on eating a supplement that mostly lets the stool keep is moisture content, and I have not been constipated once since I started with it: hydrolysed guar gum. This way I can avoid other fibres which are horrible to my gut. I used to try eating fibre to keep from getting constipated, but often I happened to eat some fibre that instead gave me extremely runny stool.
I don't think that makes a lot of sense but beyond that I don't get why the high-carb vs. low-carb discussion turns into a meat vs. plant-based debate in many places here.

Most people these days de-facto have a high-carb, high-meat diet. Conversely it's perfectly possible to have a low-meat, low-carb diet (I'm currently doing a vegetarian keto). To me it sounds just like yet another excuse to dunk on the silly hippy vegoonz.
Reading the title, I assumed that the article would talk about what people mean by privacy. However, it really is about how people try to achieve privacy (by reducing the mount of collected data, or by reducing the amount of collectible data). The thing is how you do it depends on what you are trying to achieve. When discussing privacy, I find it useful to distinguish three types: a) privacy from government, which is fondamentally not a technical problem but a political one, b) privacy from big corporations, and c) privacy from criminals (i.e. "hackers"). In my experience, people are really mostly interested in c) and so-called privacy conscious people are mostly interested in b). As for how to achieve b), I (perhaps naively) assume that corporate data collection obeys a law of diminishing returns, so the best strategy is simply to do more than the masses who do not care.

Pointers, as per the standard, have an implicit conversion to bool that evaluates to true if and only if the pointer is not exactly nullptr. Code like:

if (ptr) {
...
}

is guaranteed to work the way you expect it to, regardless of how null pointers are implemented.
