Thank you everyone for your kind advice and encouragement. I really appreciate and can not express how much I feel thankful for this with my limited English. Since my older brother pass away. I never show weakness to anyone even my family. I just don't know how to be miserable or share negativity with people around me. (Please allow me to be drama, please ignore if you don't like it.) Everyone sees me as a smart and strong person and they can rely on me and I'm happy with that. I'm happy when people around me is happy. But why I'm too emotional so much now about Google and Amazon because, I realised, actually, I wanted to be accepted. I was thinking if I get the job, I'll make more money so that my mom will stop asking me to marry with the guy I don't know(in Thai culture, when a guy marry with a woman, a gloom has to pay money to a bride family), just accept who I am. I want my dad stop worrying about me and be proud of who I am. I want my brothers to have a better education, better than I had, be a better person than I am. And everybody just be happy. That's all I want in life.
I just complain. And I know this hard time will pass as I always pass so many storms. Just this time, I expected myself too much so it hurt so much, and I couldn't figure out how to handle this drama emotional. time heals...
One thing I know, to me, failure is just an event but not an identity. It happen, I acknowledge and experience that I'm sad, depressed, cry if it necessary. Then detach from it, put my shit together and move on. I can only imagine I will be a batter person than I was.
I will try better with SoftLayer on upcoming interview soon. And if I fail again, it is totally fine because I already feel thankful for any opportunities I was given. Thank you and goodluck everyone!!! :)
We also faced this problem at work a while back, although, for XML.

My first iteration was similar in spirit to jsonpatch: a sequence of ops against the document. A XML patches grew things because mighty unwieldy and confusing. The maintainability of "diff operations" is incredibly low.

What I did in my second iteration was to have the patch document "look" like the document you are trying to create. Here's a document that will give you the general gist of how it worked (it's somewhat hard to describe in words): https://gist.github.com/jcdickinson/57e3a7e481a7e79f90b4

There are some operations (foreach, etc.) that I haven't included in the sample that are designed in an "operation" manner for scenarios where the structural approach won't work.

Either way it makes patches a lot more manageable and you may want to consider using it as inspiration. I included something rough in the gist to get the grey matter rolling.
You list two contexts.

a) "they're trying to convert our children!" paranoia

b) general disapproval.

There are at least two more:

c) dispassionate acknowledgement

d) outright support

I absolutely, strongly support the LGBT community's agenda of making gay marriage legal, everywhere.

Just because one hateful group of people uses a phrase in one particular way, doesn't mean we need to give them ownership of it, nor assume that everyone using the same term feels the same way they do.
I think "userspace COW" is the wrong approach here.

The entire idea of getting a point-in-time snapshot of something subject to rapid change is problematic. Your options boil down to (1) make a "snapshot" and save that (Redis's current approach) or (2) accept that point-in-time consistency might be impossible, and work around it.

I wonder whether it'd be possible to have two persistence strategies in Redis: "consistent" and "low-latency". "Consistent" would use the current fork(2) COW behavior, "low-latency" would do some kind of one-chunk-at-a-time block copy and amortize the latency spike over the entire operation, while having the overall effect of less of a "cliff" to latency.
I have doubts about how useful the ExaLink Fusion is in practice. Many exchanges require at minimum a layer 3 switch to terminate at the cross connect. In those cases, you cannot directly connect an ExaLink switch to the exchange.

I am quite surprised that no one mentioned the Cisco nexus 3548. Switching at L2 with 110ns latency is not that impressive considering that the Csico nexus 3548 switches packet at (L2/L3) with 50ns (with warp span turned on)

Feminism is an idea. Feminists, or the people who adhere to that idea, are a group. If every single adherent of an idea you encounter is an abhorrent person, most people will stop and consider if they want to associate with those people. Typically the answer is "No".

Most people will also wonder if something about the idea turns people into abhorrent people or if something about the idea is only attractive to abhorrent people. In either case, it is not something to which our notional person is likely to be attracted.

In short - the people who adhere to an idea are seen as commentary on the idea.
Neat, I hadn't heard of that one. Both of the tricks for staying awake and alert while driving that I have used involve discomfort:

> 'feminism' == 'desire for equal rights'

Is this not the case?
That's not what I mean. I mean that any C you write will run with no problems as long as it doesn't depend on an outside library. It's not possible to do anything that needs interrupts, IO, or memory without an external library, which if you're that low you're gonna be writing yourself either way. Accessing individual registers is also a special behavior that doesn't really fall under using C, and regardless that totally possible without a runtime (the __asm__ keyword, thats all compiler driven).

If you're going to get so specific as to call the x86 processor a runtime, then there's no point in arguing.

Redis uses a reactive architecture using non-blocking I/O. They fork to get a point-in-time consistent snapshot that can be written to disk. The problem is that fork blocks, and while blocked, it stalls the event loop, subjecting incoming requests to stalls.

In Canada those rights are extended to the man. It's called paternity leave. The parent even mentions that he split the leave with his partner.

There are still cultural barriers resulting in many men not taking the leave, but at least it's an option.

I should note that I think tying the unemployment insurance to maternity/paternity leave is genius.

SEO Academy #1: The Basics of Search Engine Optimization // My New Guide
I recently took the plunge and started biking to work semi-regularly as well. Here's a few points that got me going.

Sweat. If you have a shower at work then great. If not there's no reason to go full tilt on the way to work. Relax, go at a reasonable pace to avoid working up a major sweat. We have a shower at the office, but I rarely use it because it's not too hectic of a ride.

Store stuff at work. Drive into work on a Monday and bring clothes and stuff with you and store in a locker or somewhere at work. Then bike the rest of the days and drive home later in the week.

If you can leave your laptop at work the odd day.. you'll enjoy life at home that much more :)

My first thought in seeing this headline was to think "no these guys again." They do this every few years. They trot out some new piece of "evidence" in an attempt to drum up money for yet another expedition to the Nikumaroro island. Never mind that they've already been there 10 times and have failed to come up with anything credible.

It is also worth noting that the island in question has been periodically inhabited for much of the century prior to TIGHAR beginning its investigation, so the discovery of numerous artifacts is unsurprising, but it hasn't stopped them from trying to link everything they find to Earhart. What's more, the records of radio communication with the aircraft don't support the notion that they would have landed so far off course.

Are you exaggerating for the sake of argument (perfectly valid), or is it that bad for some people?
The whole premise of carbon capture is that we're still burning fossil fuels. If the world literally eliminated 100% of carbon emissions then biological carbon sinks (plants) would eventually restore the natural equilibrium, the problem is we're burning more carbon than they can keep up with.

Using nuclear power to sequester carbon is useless if someone else is still using carbon to power their air conditioner or whatever, you would do better to just use the nuclear power to run the air conditioner.

Both.
You do realize that no one advocated that Eich be physically "rounded up", right? They were just saying they didn't want to have him as their CEO.
Where does the CO2 in carbonated beverages come from currently? Is it something produced which would now be displaced resulting in a net reduction? If we're producing CO2 as the product, we could lower that amount by recycling already produced CO2.

More like "we don't have 64b ints, yet."
Even when you extend the rights to the man, there's still the traditional cultural expectations will end up with the leave on the mother. I mean, I'm a liberal stereotype and we didn't split the parental leave until our third kid - we went the traditional way for the first 2. So even in the optimal "extend rights to both" we still have the problem that the female employee took leave and the male one didn't.

We can remove the financial burden from the company by shifting it to the Employee Insurance system, but I don't know how to remove the HR problem of "you have an employee who has gone for a year of unpaid leave and you must give them back their job when they finish their leave". There's no easy answer for that one.

This thread is growing faster than I can read it. Yeah, Tim Cook coming out as gay is a positive thing, but it's not particularly novel or revolutionary.

If I were a young closeted gay person and someone said, "Apple's CEO, Tim Cook, just came out as gay," I wouldn't jump for joy for the future of gay people in technology. I'd instead make damn sure I didn't carry any Apple products in public for fear of some stranger connecting the dots and bullying me. But, hell, I grew up in a very oppressive town. (I also don't own any Apple products.)

What matters more is that Tim Cook is not the only one to speak up about this. I'd like to hear more CEOs come out without fear.
Yeah that's an insanely high pay packet even for a developer. Even sensor developers aren't seeing more than 120K around here.

Show HN: Make NDB query results JSON serializable
The "write better" goal is one big reason I participate in online discussions like HN. Big ideas with lots of critics and fast responses mean you have to learn to write concise, to the point, be persuasive, and be interesting. The more you write, the better you'll write - so long as you value writing well. Watch how people respond, both in replies and in up/down "karma" votes. Get in vigorous (but friendly! always friendly!) discussions with those with opposing views. Learn verbal "judo", using their words to make your point. Know how much research is appropriate to make a point; write enough to be thorough & clear, but not so long as to lose most readers.

Write.

A.

We disagree that this actually changes the meaning of Feminism.

Yes, some horrid people need an excuse to dish out abuse and Feminism often becomes that excuse (I'm thinking about everyone who's ever used the potential-rapist argument).

Does this taint Feminists, the group? Maybe a little, yes.

Does this taint Feminism, the idea that genders should be as equal as possible? Well, IMHO, no.

> (games, video codecs, etc.) prefer the intrinsics

Nit: Most of the projects I'm familiar with (libav/ffmpeg, x264, etc) prefer to break out the SIMD into hand-written functions, instead of relying on intrinsics or even inline asm. This avoids problems with register allocation and code gen, consistency/portability between compilers, etc.

Otherwise, yes, autovectorization is hard, both for application developers and compiler writers. Application code needs to be structured in a very precise way, and the correctness of C -> SIMD transformations needs to be proven. Intrinsics and hand-written SIMD aren't going away.
> Is anyone else's spam protection on par with Google Mail's?

In my experience, good spam protection is a commodity.
Another good way to be exposed to a new language: if you already watch TV shows/movies on your computer, try to find an audio dub in the target language with subs in your native language. Try to ignore the subtitles but use them as a reference when you hear an unfamiliar word or sentence structure.

I really like this because you get to hear usually several different accents & voices that you can start to correlate with stereotypes - how does a young woman talk, how does a shy person talk, how does a businessman talk, how does a thug talk, etc.
this difficulty inhibiting thoughts that i know are irrelevant has long been an issue for me. i had to build a "memory palace" style visualizing technique for "disposing" of thoughts that i know aren't relevant, but can't help fixate on.

i imagine writing the thought down in vim, then moving the file to a USB stick, then taking the usb stick into a zip-lock bag, putting that into a specific pocket of my backpack, getting on my bike, and riding from my apartment down 101 to the NASA base at AMES, throwing the backpack into a red bin which is loaded into a rocket and shot into space.

the visualization is so detailed and specific that it takes all my attention to render that internal movie; after having expressed the thought syntactically (i actually imagine writing the thing down in vim and moving my fingers accordingly), it gets moved from "the thing actively afflicting my consciousness now" to "a thing i was thinking about". often after the rocket takes off, i can remember i was thinking something that bothered me, but i can't remember what it was. my mind will sometimes grab after it, trying to remember - and if it surfaces i get agitated again - but i can usually stay focused enough to distract myself by going for a walk or establishing a small, easily obtainable goal to fire up the ol' task positive network again.
I'm yet to dive into Jisp, but from a few seconds of looking at the page I think the difference is quite obvious. ClojureScript implements semantics which are very different from JS on top of it, it comes with it's own runtime library, it relies on Google Closure Compiler to optimize it's JS which would be rather large otherwise. I don't know of any page where you get side by side clojurescript -> generated js code comparison. It's similar to js-of-ocaml and many other LanguageX-in-JS projects.

Jisp on the other hand looks like it's a straightforward transpiler, with more or less one to one mapping between Jisp and JS constructs, without the need for providing large runtime. It looks like CoffeeScript with a sexps-based syntax. It reminds me of Hy language and Lisp Flavored Erlang, which I feel are similar projects (for Python and Erlang respectively).

There are at least 3 other Lisp dialects with similar philosophy on JS (excluding ClojureScript) out there, but when I last looked on them I wasn't convinced by any one and I stayed with LiveScript for work and I started exploring ClojureScript. I'll definitely take a look at Jisp now as a potential LS replacement.
You'd have to be a weirdly obsessive anti-gay to spend your spare time perusing Out magazine or lists of most influential homosexuals, though I suppose such people do exist and you'd also have to be pretty weirdly obsessive to refrain from purchasing from a corporation on account of the sexual orientation of a member of its management team.

I'm gay, politically aware, and posting on HN on a MacBook and had no idea, though frankly I also don't browse LGBT power lists.
