Up to you. If it's a one-shot site that won't grow, then a single container is fine. But if you might grow, the upfront discipline of splitting them into separate containers will make it much easier to scale & distribute later.

Also, while you're likely to find pre-packaged dockerfiles for each of your components, the odds are lower that you'll find an existing dockerfile that has your exact stack all-in-one. So, while the "one container" approach may save you some cross-container configuration overhead, it will likely cost you extra dockerfile creation time.
Fuck features you “have to have”
"an open source project to pack, ship and run any application as a lightweight container" - I am so excited! How exactly do I ship and run my XNA/Mono game on Android, WP, iOS?
It's dead in the end either way. If you assume we're going to eat it.

Is it worth an extra animal's worth of meat for an extra animal's worth of anti-bacterial resistance, that's the core question here. If we're not using these antibiotics so widely to prevent the infection in the first place how does that scale?

It may be better, in the long run, just to say 'no antibiotics in animals' and kill those that become ill out of hand. Otherwise I can see this becoming an easy out for farmers - they could still keep the animals in atrocious conditions, knowing that they can use AB to cure them after they become ill - and if a large number of them become ill then we'll be in exactly the same pickle we are now.
I'll try:

Previously, to control an environment for an app or set of apps, you either dictated exactly the environment os version and libraries etc, or you tried to run some kind of wrapper like fabric and virtualenv or maven or chef or whatever. And it keeps breaking for real, and developers keep screwing up because they aren't running the exact deployed system.

Docker turns that around. It let's you specify the environment exactly, yet also treat that container as an app. It sorts out the versioning (git), and it makes it trivial for all devs to run the stack identically to production.

As I've just had to get oracle SDK working troubleshooting on my macbook, I can't say how appealing the docker way sounds.
Check out boot2docker: http://github.com/steeve/boot2docker

It's a 25MB vm which boots a working docker installation in 5 seconds. I use it on my mac with virtualbox, and connect to it from the native docker client.

That way I can run unmodified docker containers almost anywhere :)
This slide deck has a pretty good explanation of the solution:

Google Analytics uses only a first party cookie to identify visitors. That means your id is different on each site you visit. You therefore cannot track a unique visitor across the web using GA cookies.

Google Analytics requests are also only unencrypted if the site itself is unencrypted, so the fact that the GA request includes the referrer doesn't seem relevant (since the referrer would have already been transferred in the clear in the Referer header on the initial HTTP request.)
Stop trying to put conversion engagement trickers out of a job. Give them all your personal information so they can send you drip emails over the next six months to sell you things.
The Gates Foundation's Hypocritical Investments
This seems like a surprisingly dumb move. Making a virtual Ipod Shuffle will only serve to annoy users. Which on the other hand is their business model, but I think users will rather uninstall than upgrade to premium because of this.
Why not just create a AWS/DigitalOcean/Rackspace instance for every service? When I need different versions of the same software I use another instance or something like Python virtualenvs.
Again, I didn't intend to setup this argument. However, all one needs to show is that a "Have" is materially worse off thanks to taxes. This gets easier or harder depending on definitions.

Clearly, Have versus HaveNot is not binary; there is a range there. Who is a Have and who is a HaveNot? If a Have is a $20k/yearly worker and a HaveNot is without a job entirely, we could easily argue that taxes are punishing the Haves.
When the reason is, "I don't like ESR," it's not important to explain the driving factors behind the move.

It is very effective in stopping me from ever contributing, though.

Obviously there are reasons to use LibreOffice, like you said. But don't try to pretend there's no reason to use Google's office suite over LibreOffice.
Spreadsheets have pretty much been the same for the past 10 years so it's good to finally see some movement in this area. For a time being, I was sure that Google gave up on spreadsheets.

You stumble across something wider and interesting - representatives of democratic states writing international conventions to create obligations to implement unpopular laws.

We see this in the response to copyright infringement too e.g. ACTA - the executive thinks this is a thing that needs doing, but will never get past elected representatives because the public doesn't like it.

A lot of the hostility towards Europe stems from it's constituent governments using it like this.

Is this a reaction to a flaw in democracy?

Usually this ends up being "debug everywhere" kind of thing, based on my experience, regardless of the technology.
I absolutely do not want a government to be a corporation interested only in money.

As clearly stated in that article, the US gov has weapons that are too powerful to be resisted. So we can't just stop paying them our taxes if we don't like their services. Capitalism in the US still depends on the US gov stepping in occasionally to break up monopolies when customers aren't able to choose between competing companies to give money to.

The thing that struck me about the article the most was how well it was written. Very engaging all the way through. That kind of quality of writing, I would say is quite rare.

Anyway, I'm really glad that they've improved the load times for their snippet, because this issue is always a genuine concern that needs resolving.
Maybe because not everyone wants their spreadsheet with sensitive data on Google's servers. Also, I seriously doubt this thing is up to feature parity with Excel.
Because Excel is the backbone of how most organizations do "computation". For example, if you look at any financial services company, you will find not only Excel everywhere, but tons of VBA code in those spreadsheets which also turn around and talk to various compute clusters that they use (both Windows HPC server and LOTS of Linux). Excel isn't going away anytime soon.

ShowHN & Ask HN: Free iOS vs Free Nook/Amazon What gives?
Ok so I had a similiar app in the nook market that was released last christmas. It still recieved 100s of downloads a day and is played by at least 80 people a day. I didn't put any ads in it and its basically just cross selling our other children games.<p>This year I was able to submit a version to iOS (last years got declined as it was just another...) Its free and has an ad model. (A version just submitted adds a unlock the full game with a couple modes and difficulties). It has Game Center and Facebook integration. And its FREE! So what gives. I did a whole facebook campaign and it still is dying off with single digit downloads. I expected at least similar numbers to the Nook. So my show is this: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/holiday-blitz-hd/id588226751 and My Question is: What are the ingredients needed to get a successful free app with some type of conversion? What marketing is worth the money?

Many McDonalds locations are franchises, so they are actually individual businesses. They aren't paid by McDonalds but by the franchisee.
Custom events are easy to implement, though we focused in model events as we wanted something with minimal effort to push data to the client.
The event class only needs to know what the django->gateway transport is (xmlrpc as for now).
So it sounds like there's already a solution to your problem that doesn't require leaking privacy all over the internet, since presumably the one-time links are on request from a page on your website, and tells you nothing but someone on your website wanted something from your website.

How is this a bad thing? How would removing referrals harm you in any way?

No. Every recent trade deal done by the US was initially negotiated in private. It is totally normal.

Initial negotiations are always private, even for domestic legislation. Just look at the $85 billion funding package that was just announced. Only two people--Patty Murray and Paul Ryan--worked on that, in private, before it was introduced to the rest of Congress.

People who are concerned about the substance of the TPP are campaigning against the very basics of the process itself. This is a bad tactic. Over time it will be very corrosive to the government's ability to do anything.

This is the typical response (and there is evidence to back it up) but then are these people really deserving of long term unemployment benefits? If you've been unemployed for five years and I say to you "hey there are jobs in xyz" and your response is that taking that job will "ruin your long-term career prospects" (it's almost funny) maybe unemployment is no longer serving it's intended functions (as a stop-gap between jobs).
One of telegraphy's milestones is to generalize the event tansport in the server side. Redis, ZMQ and other pub/sub libs can offer more flexibility and performance than xmlrpc.

PTP testing so far is looking quite good!
Feedlots use corn to fatten the beef herd before slaughter. Feeding a high corn diet to cattle can cause acidosis of the Rumen stomach (one the four compartments in cattle stomachs).

You can prevent this through feeding a more balanced feed mix however this slows down the fattening process.

Acidosis can cause the stomach to rupture. Antibiotics are used to help control this and deal with side effects of acidosis.

I wish you luck with your research, but I'm not sure your look at Google Analytics is relevant to this discussion or the Washington Post article that started this thread.

First, as <bdt101> pointed out, you "cannot track a unique visitor across the web using GA cookies" because of the way they're designed:
https://news.ycombinator.com/reply?id=6889120&whence=item%3f...

Second, the NSA doc as excerpted in the WashPost article talks only about Google's PREF cookie, which is set only when you go to say Google.com, not when you go to a non-Google property. It's a first-party cookie used for things like saving language preferences when you're not logged in, not for advertising across other properites. (That's what the Doubleclick cookie is for.)
You wouldn't want to modify the function in-place, that would violate immutability of data. Each of these closures would themselves be generated, by a factory method. When you're ready to modify, you'd invoke the factory to generate another closure, then you'd use whatever infrastructure you built to assign them in the first place to re-assign them to the new closures.

Apple OSX came and gave us a good Unix UI.

Nowadays, OSX is seen as the alternative to Windows more than Linux is.

Hah, well I like to imagine that just after walking out the door my previous boss realized the error of his ways and instituted sweeping new reforms.

I don't know of anything that's not anecdotal. I also think that trying to fix things as an individual in a country of over 300 million, despite what people tell you, is generally a fool's errand for anyone who doesn't have enormous amounts of capital at their disposal. Best to find somewhere that suits you and enjoy life there.
Not so different from features that only worked with Google Gears before, Chrome essentially being Gears, matured.
> I'm also curious how Yglesias would explain the lack of "slack" in the labor market after the recession of '01-'02.

I'm not sure how Yglesias would, but to me the answer is obvious. The 2001 recession (official dates are still, IIRC, March-November 2001, though there was, around 2004, talk that the start date maybe should have been pinned somewhat earlier, I don't think it was ever actually revised), was, as you note, much shorter and, in part because there was a lot more access to credit, which supported a quick rebound of aggregate demand and a return to expansion and better top-line employment numbers (a number of factors, include tax policy changes which shifted the distribution of gains upwards, made it a fairly hollow expansion in which the bottom three quintiles all saw income declines and the next quintile was flat, however, which, help set the stage for a deeper recession with a much slower recovery when the bottom fell out of the housing market, since it was a lot harder for demand to rebound.)
>And in any case, NSA can certainly rent an essentially-unlimited number of cloud server instances under a front company, no?

I've worked with one organization that uses Excel sheets to model product mathematics for gaming (gambling) equipment. They won't even use the Macintosh version of Excel since they can't be sure the math will come out exactly the same as the PC version, and the PC version is what has gotten them approved by the gaming boards before.

Call it superstitious, but they don't have the time or expense to sit there and prove that another spreadsheet works 100.00% identally to PC Excel. So now they run Excel in VMWare on OSX. There's irony there, but what can you do?

That applies to enjoying music that is released contemporarily vs. discovering music after the fact, what ever the medium. Anyone being introduced to Led Zeppelin in 1976 on the purest vinyl had just as much (or little) opportunity to grow with the music as someone introduced to them on Spotify in 2013.

That said, I would really like for Spotify to get their discographies cleaned up. A huge number of albums are just plainly mis-tagged with the publication year, and especially for older music you have to scroll through dozens of "Best of", "The original", "The definitive" etc. as well as re-publications "Re-masted", "Legacy edition" etc. to get to the original albums. This makes it difficult to try to explore an artist work in the original arrangement. Also, the knock-off albums need to disappear. I never, ever, ever want to hear even a single song by "The Rock Masters" or anything with "Made famous by" in the title.
Of which I can only agree. But history shows that entitlements almost always balloon out of control. Often in an effort to be fair or not disparaging to the recipients. For example, food stamps became EBT because the term food stamps has a negative stigma to them. It made people feel bad to be on food stamps so they rename it so they won't feel bad. But you can't really call them food stamps anyway as they have become their own form of currency and you can buy nearly anything with them. So now it's become the "here's some money we hope you'll buy food with" program. Not to say that there are no people who do need these programs to survive through tough times. I'm sure there are many out there who do actually, truly need these programs and I'm happy that they are there to help them. But at the same time, one must recognize that over time such programs may lead to severe problems that require yet more programs, i.e. money, to "fix".

On the other side, if the government installed such controls as you describe then that part would potentially get worse simply because of abuses by the government on its people. Plus, government controls often do not have the intended outcome anyway resulting in worse problems than what they were trying to solve in the first place. Also, keep in mind that politicians often offer to increase the money to these programs to increase their power in their own little corner of the political landscape. Or to buy votes. Or to attack political opponents. I can easily recall the accusations that one party must not be elected because "THEY WERE GOING TO TAKE AWAY YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY!!" even though that party did not claim wanting to do such a thing. The more control you hand over to the government over its people, the more control that it desires to get in the future.

Some would say that welfare is already supposed to provide just enough to survive on to help that person. But with some groups that use the money clearly for things outside of surviving, some groups that are constantly redefining what "surviving" means, and some groups blatantly using welfare measures to buy votes to obtain power means that welfare will almost always not be the solution to the problem at hand.

Taking care of humans fairly is a rather difficult thing to succeed at.
