I don't think that's really a bike specific thing. Those same drivers would likely get just as angry at a car or other motor vehicle driving below the speed limit on the same road. Maybe even angrier since they can't pass as easily.
> I think of rolling the dice as taking a chance without any knowledge of the chance for it paying of.

I think hoping a Rust rewrite would fix "complex runtime issues which were almost impossible to reproduce or isolate" as rolling the dice. If you cannot reproduce or isolate an issue, how can you know a rewrite in another language will fix the issue?
forEach mixes statements and expressions so (imho) is poor style.
Donne's work is extraordinary, and best read (as with most poetry) out loud. His sermons share the same language, and move from dry letters on the page into living, clear thoughts when heard instead of read.
Everybody at Google wanted to add their specific feature to TF (gets visibility, users, research cred). Unfortunately, many different teams added multiple incompatible features that didn't compose. TF1 also had some serious problems where it was fundamentally designed around C++, without an understanding that most people wanted to work in Python. With TF2 a lot of stuff got redesigned, making many examples on the web stop working. There are too m any ways to parallelize your computation (along any of the dimensions), and they change too frequently.

But I think the writing was on the wall when the folks building ML Pathways hit some performance problems and realized that Jax made it much, much easier for them to express the computations they wanted and see them run quickly on TPUs (DeepMind had also concluded this). Once Jeff saw that Jax was making stuff that ran faster than TF (for his pet projects) the writing was on the wall.
51% attack on a proof of stake network would be a truly "I just want to watch the world burn" scenario, since you'd have to control 51% of the currency, why even bother. You control most of the money, why risk losing it with a takeover attempt?
It should also be noted in the 7 years since launch that a large portion of that 59% would have been sold or lost and hence re-distributed to other users on the platform.
Agreed. I am an English speaker and fluent in the corp speak dialect and at least to me a lot of these terms (maybe all of them?) have different connotations than what the author thought was a totally equivalent English word (e.g. "let's meet" and "let's sync" convey very different implications, to me). And why would that be surprising? I'm doing and behaving in different ways at work than I do outside of it so new words to accurately capture that are sensible. When I play survival-crafting video games with friends that requires elaborate coordination I find myself slipping into corp speak for some things and it's because we are then doing the sort of communication that corp speak can render most clearly.

At the same time I don't deny that fluently using the words is a way of signaling conformity or insiderness to the corp culture and that is distinct from the words' usefuleness. It's probably this part of them that rankles HN folks, but they are just wrong when they say the words are 100% signaling with no inherent value.

The part about how the language objectifies people or is anti-social strikes me as pure speculation by the way-- I don't find anything humans do to be particularly inhuman and definitely not corp-speak. It signals participation in what is an outgroup to some so they dislike it but shouldn't pat themself on the back for disliking it.
Indeed it's supposed to, but it doesn't fix it for me. Even if it did, it's pretty annoying that this problem has been around for at least 3 years without a fix.
It's a good point. The other idea I had was creating multiple <200 sq ft structures, so that none of them met the minimum area required for a permit and then using an outdoor hallway to join them.
> You should forget about what the car "has" and consider if the price makes sense for the features you get access to.

Absolutely not: manufacturers should forget about having their cake and eating it too.

Considering how long it took AWS to add IPv6 to services across the board, I'm not surprised that it's taking so long. On the other hand, it would be nice if they would be transparent about the challenges or the reason for the delay, rather than radio silence or, at best, "we're working on it."

The other part of it is that without free will, you don't have the choice on what you decide is moral, etc.

Human rights might be cosmically meaningless, but there would still be those who act as if they do have meaning. And they would have no choice in the matter.

I guess I'm skeptical. There's been consistent polling over years where the US voters are at least mildly favorable to lots of "left wing" ideas, abortion rights, social safety nets, gun control, but the votes never materialize in referendums or for candidates that support left wing causes.
> If 66% of miners not only censor their own blocks, but also collude to continually reorg the chain, then obviously all bets are off, the project has failed, and the exchange rate is headed to 0.

Is it though? If crypto ever becomes a common currency people will still want to transact in it regardless of corruption/collusion among miners. Most are not going to stop using it for ideological reasons like "miners are altering the chain" unless it negatively impacts their own transactions.
On a system that already struggles to keep up on a lot of games, because it ships with a chip from 2014. Will be fun to see the comparisons.
Because they’re not lowering the initial purchase price of the car to compensate, you’re effectively paying a lot more for what are basic features in a modern car.

I wouldn’t object to a model where I was charged a lot of money for a subscription in exchange for lowering the up front cost of the car.

But nickel-and-diming me for features like heated seats forever after I have already paid a huge price for the car? It seems like a petty cash grab, especially for a supposedly upscale manufacturer like BMW. And why would I even want to have to keep track of that subscription? Yet another stupid tax on my time and attention — when I could just buy a Honda instead and pay entirely upfront and be done with it.

Should it be illegal? Probably not, as long as the manufacturers aren’t colluding and I can still just buy from a manufacturer that doesn’t do this.
Someone recently observed that SQLite would be used a lot more in production if it didn't have the word "lite" in its name. I've personally been amazed by what it can do. Really great piece of tech with an unfortunate name.
The argument against unsigned is that people abuses unsigned as a way of false safety, as a form of assert. They think the number cannot go below zero or above maxvalue. But in practice it can under- and overflow, so this is a bogus assert. I think there is a valid point in this.

So, if someone does x=(0-1), signed will contain (-1) and unsigned will contain (MAXVALUE) (255 if x is char, 8 bits). The point being that (-1) is clearly wrong and invalid, and 255 is valid but wrong. The price to pay for this is one bit of reduced range (meaning, reducing the range by half).

Now, all modern processors have under- and overflow checks. It is also true that nobody uses them regularly, and that they are not easily accessible in C.

Therefore: use unsigned only for modulo arithmetic. For the rest, used signed numbers, as they behave like you would expect.

My big fear isn't malicious library access, but that the bad actors pushed a malicious update to Plex itself and that my server is now running malicious code doing God knows what on my network.
Since blockchains are specifically built with idea of censorship resistance in mind, and Ethermine not including TC transactions can't actually prevent other miners from including them... I'm struggling to understand the point you are trying to make.

Are you talking about lack of ideological purity of Ethermine?

I was always wondering about this. From the start it seemed like "blockchain" could be easily replaced by a few trusted validators run by independent organizations, the same way certificate transparency logs are operated, for example. The value in Bitcoin and proof-of-work was that everyone could contribute to the security of the log.

As soon as mining pools appeared, and now even more with proof-of-stake, we are back with a few parties being the trusted validators. The fact that they get their powers from on-chain tokens rather than community decision... is it really a good thing?
> Everyone independently controls their own blocks.

I believe the point is that there’s no prerequisite that all miners are independent, and will definitely collude. PoW or PoS this is the case, as blockchains cannot prevent IRL agreements.
maybe this is supposed to make me feel better, but installing features that will never be used (e.g. heating elements in the seats) just makes me mad re: waste.

It's not a digital asset that costs nothing to produce/host/sustain. These are raw materials, refined, that will someday end up in a landfill.

You don't need it. A single synchronous redundant storage mechanism (e.g. SQL database, S3, SAN/NFS) works fine. But you could use etcd (or Consul) if you wanted. (You also didn't mention what happens when your etcd gets corrupted or loses consensus or its TLS certs expire... :)

K8s is a very "opinionated" system. People think this is the only architecture that works, but of course it isn't true.
What you say is true in the same way like saying that taking a cup of water out of the ocean lowers the ocean level a little. It is true, but it is not significant. The moment the mining is moved to mostly non-solo miners ( and even now non-solo miners seem to vastly outnumber in sheer mining power established solo miners ).

Basically, concentration of power means that eth will quickly become everything the banks are.. only worse ( because with banks you at least have some regulation to back you up ):P
If I understand what you mean by "slasher nodes" (there is no such term in reality): Anybody can run a node that checks for conflicting validation messages and get a small reward by doing so. There is zero stake required to do this. It is not some power conferred to "vitalik and his friends"

The objection is, if I own a car, then the car manufacturer shouldn't be able to disable functionality. If I buy a car with heated seats, I should be able to use them as much as I want, and the manufacturer should have no control over that. The cost concern is secondary to losing control of devices that we ostensibly own.

Uncontroversially, dual licensing is not open source when neither of the licenses are open source.

More controversially, a "non-commercial" license is not open source. This is clearly the position of the OSI, though that isn't necessarily dispositive. But note that this is not the same thing as a license with terms that happen to incidentally make some commercial use impractical (like the AGPL), which may be what the parent meant by "non-commercial", in which case we just have people talking past each other.
They do not, they simply produce blocks. If they produce blocks that don't comply your nodes rules you'll ignore them and it would simply be a liveness fault and not a safety one.
Well, not to defend the police, but after a bike is stolen I don't know what you could expect them to do.

Even if they had a dedicated bike recovery task force, the most they could do is visit local pawn shops and browse community marketplaces for a bike matching the description (assuming it wasn't broken down for parts).

Now, before a bike is stolen, I'd expect police to actually patrol places where bikes are being commonly stolen from (or for that matter, places where cars are commonly broken into). That part is something I do blame them for. The fact that SF is basically synonymous with "don't leave anything in the car" is an indictment on local police.
No 'they dont take your coins/stake'. That is just plain false.
I care about ops because if the ops are bad it affects how quickly and effectively I can deliver new functionality and resolve issues.

It's quite rare that your webserver will be the bottleneck at this point. Your app will be the bottleneck much more often.

I don't think the difference in performance between Nginx and Caddy would mean you need 3 servers versus 1 of the same spec. But of course, you need to run your own benchmarks on your own config to determine which is best _for you_.

Benchmarks cannot be done generally, because the config drives so much of what happens at runtime, and everyone has different needs.
Going by just their pop culture it’s not apparent to me that this is concern to them.

This is a known issue with a fix that was reported a while back:

I've been around Toronto and agree: the roads are mostly parking lots. I actually wonder if the low average speed reduces the cost of maintenance since the roadway should be less worn.

But aren't tolls meant to be set high enough to discourage their use? Otherwise the average travel time on them would be about the same as the untolled route.
I've written a bajillion queries and have tons of nitpicks, but it's the twin meanings of NULL that really kills me.

NULL can be the value of a field in a record, but it is also used to indicate the lack of a record in a JOIN.

If I run:

SELECT x.a, y.b FROM x LEFT JOIN y on x.a = y.a

and I get back

[5, NULL]

I have no way of knowing if that means there's a record [5, NULL] in table y, or if there's no record in table y that starts with 5.

Obviously there are lots of workarounds, but to me this is a truly fundamental design flaw. SQL should have specified another NULL-like value, call it EMPTY, used only for joins that find no data. And analagous to IS NULL, it would be checked using IS EMPTY.

I think you're reading too much intent into 4 labels.

You're right that for a slash to be publicly verifiable, the cheating evidence has to appear on-chain. So indeed there is the question of whether this evidence can be censored...

3 years ago, I tried Heroku and was quite impressed by it. Although the price is prohibitive for a hobby project that needed resources but wasn't generating any revenue, I had to start seeking other options.

It looks like with a series of changes they were able to mitigate the issue almost completely, but it's still there and the motherboard is obviously deficient in some way.

They mentioned they put the ram in 2 years ago and they've had this issue for 2 months. I suspect maybe it started when their OS's started using their TPM's but it's possible their board has just broken randomly. Likely on a hardware level.

I do see value in diagnosing the issue and making a post about mitigation's. I love people who do this so others with the issue can find it and get their boards refunded/RMA'd before their warranties expire. But once the tpm/ftpm was identified as being the issue and it was hardware/firmware related, they need to get a new board, not more mitigations (hopefully by getting a refund/RMA so the board manufacturer doesn't get a pass on this). I don't see how someone working in the tech space (we are VERY privileged salary wise) would tolerate having obviously faulty electronics.
51% can do double-spend in Bitcoin, e.g. they can undo entire blocks of transactions and spend that money again.

They can also prevent you from getting your transaction in ever. The 49% cannot prevent this because they cannot make a longer chain, that is the entire point of proof-of-work.
