Why do you think that the genocide is so heavily denied by modern Turkey ( Attaturk and onwards)? Is it only due do reparations or is there lingering ethnic... "superiority" remaining? Because at first glance, modern Turkey fought long and hard to distance itself from the Ottoman Empire, and make it well known they aren't a successor state. Why not pin all the blame for the genocide on the decadent Ottomans and be done with it?
I think we're in agreement. If it was software only available on Linux, you wouldn't label it "PC" would you?

You can horizontally scale Mongo via sharding and you can horizontally scale meteor pubsub with redis and related libraries as of like 2015. Depending on when, you had a lot of options. :P

We have a set of basic and essential user flows setup as a postman collection. After unit, integration and e2e tests run, production is deployed and the essential test are ran in prod with Newman. We reuse this postman collection with https://k6.io/ as a load test on non prod envs.

It's a pretty cool setup because there's virtually no maintenance on K6 side, all you have to do is extend the postman collection when necessary, commit that and you can manually trigger the load test CI job with the up to date collection.

Am I incorrect in thinking that you can smartly place some resistors to turn your, say, 4 level voltage difference into two inputs with some resistors? It's been a long time since I took electronics but surely that's not a complex problem requiring "complex ADC" right?

Though I could imagine at one point you're just looking at larger buses and having to deal with those consequences
Sure. Some readers are convinced by pointless claims, others are more discerning.

Hey nindalf.

My apologies, I introduced a bug and didn't expect this to get posted on HNs. The fix is pending review on iOS, so hopefully you should receive it soon. (Version 1.85.1 has the fix)

Regardless, I'd love it if you could reach out to me (vhanda at gitjournal.io) and explain your workflows, additionally, I'll be happy to provide you some coupon codes so you can try the basic version of GitJournal without paying. Especially considering your horrid experience.
It's almost certain the secret mission was to capture a satellite in a single orbit, that's the only reason for the wings to be so big, in addition to the cargo space. If you're in space for a long time, you can time your deorbit so that you're landing close to KSC, but in a single orbit Earth's rotation gets you about 20 degrees away, so you need good gliding and steering to get back. Scott Manley has a good video about this.

More about algorithm questions vs system modeling:

I'm thinking that

1) getting good at algorithms takes less time, than getting good at system modeling. — One will see one's mistakes sooner, within minutes, compared to system modeling, in which case one would need to stay at a workplace for months or years, to see how a system design eventually turned out to be a mistake?

But 2) it's also harder to get good at hard algorithm questions — most people won't get that good at it, also with weeks and months of practice. And they still wouldn't have any real chance in a Google coding interview.

And in that way, algorithm questions make sense?

They give more information about the person's ability to think and learn — good for the company —

and takes less time for the candidate to get good at (weeks or months — compared to working for years?), good for the candidate?

I feel like this stoic approach to dealing with problems is a fear of fear so overwhelming you abandon hope for the sake of comfortable stability. Hell, Seneca explicitly tells you to abandon hope (as does the author of this piece, although he stops short of telling you to commit suicide if life gets too difficult).

Instead of just being terrified as the eastern counterparts recommend, you deny it. Constructing a limit-case for every obstacle you face downplays your emotions, making them shrivel away so you can maintain a straight face through extended torture. I've spent the past two years undoing the damage that therapy did to me. Trying to get my ability to suffer back isn't something I ever thought I'd do but here I am. I'll have a brutal, soul-crushing failure turn me into a miserable sobbing pile of person long before I accept only being intellectually aware of all my setbacks without a shred of crippling emotion. If that means I don't have any "impressive accomplishments" because I was sitting in a corner in the fetal position wailing about my dead hamster, so be it.
Myself and my then GF visited Arras just north of Verdun in 2019. She was a few months pregnant at that stage and in every hotel we stayed, the proprietor warned her to only drink bottled water, including for brushing teeth.

In languages like Go, Java and C++. The product in question is an integration product where customer can configure choice of database in public/private cloud.

Using basic SQL types that have common support across all database vendors simplified development, testing and support. I have seen folks waste weeks (to months!) in data migration/porting and still lose time troubleshooting issues across databases when they used db specific features. Too much tech debt incurred.

Loss of minimal performance weighed against simplicity and maintainability and no vendor lock-in. When you have the same tests and same schema and same DB layer code working against multiple databases, life becomes wonderful and hassle free.
We can still recognize that horrible injustices have been made and attempt to do better. Past injustices doesn't justify the ongoing ones in Yemen, Palestine, Ukraine, China (Uyghurs), etc.

You're quite wrong:

What was held by the Karabakh Armenians until last year was a region consisting of two parts. The former Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast and a region which is de jure part of Azerbaijan.

While the remainder of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast is indeed internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, it is not in fact part of Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan seceded from the Soviet Union in accordance with the Soviet secession law. This law can be found on the homepage of Michigan State University, here:https://soviethistory.msu.edu/1991-2/shevarnadze-resigns/she...

The law is from April 3, 1990 and the relevant part is article 3 which reads as follows:

``Article 3. In a Union republic which includes within its structure autonomous republics, autonomous oblasts, or autonomous okrugs, the referendum is held separately for each autonomous formation. The people of autonomous republics and autonomous formations retain the right to decide independently the question of remaining within the USSR or within the seceding Union republic, and also to raise the question of their own state-legal status.´´

That is, for the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast to secede with Azerbaijan there'd have to be a vote in the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast and the 'join the Azerbaijani SSR in seceding' option would have to win. Otherwise the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast would remain in the Soviet Union, or raise the question of its own secession.

The Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast became independent only with the final dissolution of the USSR. Azerbaijan's invasion of the NKAO was at first the invasion of the Soviet Union and then later on, an invasion of the now unrecognized successor state-ification of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast. In their attack on the Soviet NKAO and later the statified, independent NKAO Azerbaijan then lost, to the degree that parts that are de jure part of Azerbaijan were occupied the Karabakh Armenians. These parts were indeed retaken by Azerbaijan, but parts of the NKAO were also taken, and Azerbaijan's claim to these is invalid.

Furthermore, with regard to the Wikipedia article you link, it contains the line:

en "a large column of residents, accompanied by a few dozen retreating fighters, fled the city as it fell to Armenian forces. It is reported that as they approached the border with Azerbaijan, they came across an Armenian military post and were cruelly fired upon".

Such an attack, as described-- i.e. firing on a mixed column advancing on an outpost is permissible according to the laws of war. Thus the so-called Khojaly Massacre, while regrettable, was perfectly legal. This is presumably why Azerbaijan has not pursued the Khojaly Massacre as a war crime in international courts, despite its important role in its internal historiography. Indeed,
No, this was by no means a horrid experience. It’s all good. I’m happy to hear this issue is fixed, I’ll try it out again soon.
The thing that the *BSD world have over the "Linux" world is that the *BSD community tend to produce more readable content. The "Linux" world try be more elitist within themselves, I loathe man pages because of this. (re "Linux" - yes, I fully understand the GNU/Linux bollocks).

Apple Exec Says Samsung Copied the iPhone and 'Put a Bigger Screen Around It'
"Initial map to share with students on the problem with poop in San Francisco. Poop Map, reports from 07/19 thru 07/20"

If this is similar to http://mochimachine.org/wasteland/ (from 2017) this is a map listing reports made by individual 311 calls. Wasteland map was 2008-2015, this latest map is just one year.

Could be interesting to see how the number of reports change over the years.

I tried clicking around a cluster to see if multiple reports were made for the same incident, and so making it look worse that it appears, but they appeared to have different dates. The date format wasn't human readable though.

How come you were able to learn how to do it by drag-and-drop on macOS, even though installing an application by D&D is completely unintuitive and unique to apple, but learning how to do it the linux way is an insurmontable task that you can't expect normal people to figure out?

Two years ago, I tried to repurpose the tool to build videos from random blogs article, and I almost made it to a complete Wordpress plugin. It worked slightly differently in that it wouldn't have any voice but just music, and short phrases from the article on top of the images (taken from the article). Like most of my side projects, it ended up 80% complete and then I stopped :)

Memory latency is only bad when you have a cache miss. That’s why mainframes have gigabytes of cache between their processors and memory.

You can mitigate that with some in-package HBM. IIRC, Xeon Phis came with up to 16GB of it - you could in theory have a workstation without any memory sticks.
You could purchase a VPN that (for example) supports the Ukrainian effort. There's always something that can be done.
I would hope and expect that CXL gets latency low enough to make it viable. These days you're mostly waiting for the core of the ram chips to respond as everything else races around it.

For Optane, I'd say it's doing so badly because it's barely cheaper than RAM, which means it's only useful in niche situations.

>The easiest and best way for you (you'll get updates through signed packages, etc) is probably to install via the Ubuntu Software Center.

Even that aspect is a confusing mess. On a Ubuntu Desktop installation, click on the 'Show Applications' icon in the dock and you'll see icons for:

* Software & Up...

* Software Upda...

* Ubuntu Software

The first two have virtually the same icon and [as per my transcription above] the names are truncated but are presumably "Software & Uodates" and "Software Update" --why two almost identical looking apps for this?

The third "Ubuntu Software" [which is the one I actually need to install 3rd party applications] isn't even visible until I scroll to the second screen of icons.

So three different apps for installing / updating software. Two of which look almost identical. And that's Ubuntu being the supposedly most user-friendly distro!
My wife actually hates gmail and has used Thunderbird as her email UI for years. Recently we ditched Google for her work domain and moved email hosting to another provider.

I believe that "accent" here refers to "phonetics of a foreign language applied by a non-native English speaker". i.e. German speakers who merge /w/ and /v/ because no such distinction exists in German. That's a different kind of accent from an American, British or Kiwi accent, etc, which are produced by divergent populations of native English speakers.

Unless I misunderstood you, what you're describing is essentially a flash ADC[1]. It's very fast, and not that complex for a low number of bits. But it scales poorly to higher bit depths.

Why should the database ever be publicly accessible? I've only ever seen databases being accessible by applications and maybe users (but those only for analytics databases), and have never experienced anyone working full time on certs and user access for a single database. There's usually a team for that, but they do that for the whole server fleet.
It's still illegal, so they might be exposed at some point through their "non-genius" clients.
I'd expect Lisp macros to be easier to debug, since they are written in Lisp themselves (and not in a template language) and the usual interactive debugging tools apply.

As I understand it, this is incorrect. IIUC, the electoral college still exists in order for the mega-cities not to outvote the countryside every single time. Otherwise, it would be like two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner; the cities would always vote for policies only good for cities, and completely ignore any bad effects on the countryside.

I'm guessing Apple is not going for quantity but quality. Like everything else they do. Once they figure out what gets them high quality then they figure out how to do it at scale.

I see this in all of the things they do.

The one thing you see from Apple is though. Once they choose to do something they don't give up easily. Case in point Apple Maps. When they launched it they met with a lot of criticism. Now they're going back to the drawing board and re-doing the entire thing.

They really don't give up. I admire that about them.
