Massively Parallel Clustering: Overview
I guess using setjmp/longjmp to implement something like try-catch in C is something everyone does when they discover this the first time. I did. But I was aware that it isn't a good idea, I just wanted to try it. It was some time between 13 and 11 years ago. I guess other computer science students did the same since the 80ies?
I might be wrong, but I'm responding to you because I think you're genuinely confused and not trolling.

You pointed to the efficacy of cigarette taxes in clear support of the Prop E tax ("Cigarette taxes are regressive and definitely represent progress. They were a big help in reducing smoking, and in turn reducing smoking-related health problems.").

I linked to multiple studies which found there was a strong likelihood consumers would simply substitute the taxed sugary beverages with untaxed foods that are just as unhealthy, calling into question the efficacy of such a tax.

I included a link to a study about cigarette taxes in support of my argument that "the problem with your comparison is that you assume the market for sugary drinks functions the same way the market for cigarettes does when, in fact, studies have not found the same type of substitution dynamic."

To make this simple for you:

1. Studies on sugary beverage taxes find strong substitution effects.

2. Studies on cigarette taxes do not find strong substitution effects.

Given this, your suggestion that taxes on sugary beverages are likely to have a similar level of efficacy to taxes on cigarettes is not congruent with the evidence. Instead of needing to explain this to you, you could have just read what I posted before responding to it. If you did that, you probably would have noticed what the lead researcher for one of the studies stated:

> “Instituting a sugary beverage tax may be an appealing public policy option to curb obesity, but it’s not as easy to use taxes to curb obesity as it is with smoking."

Good night.
Am I missing something, doesn't this contradict Fermat's last theorem

> In number theory, Fermat's Last Theorem (sometimes called Fermat's conjecture, especially in older texts) states that no three positive integers a, b, and c can satisfy the equation a^n + b^n = c^n for any integer value of n greater than two.

Mostly through plugins really.

Jedi is really awesome for autocomplete: https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi-vim

This plugin really helps in formatting code: https://github.com/hynek/vim-python-pep8-indent

There's another plugin that helps with PEP8 linting: https://github.com/nvie/vim-flake8

I just use a combination of print statements and pdb for debugging, I don't trust automatic re-factoring for Python though, so I tend to do them manually with regex.

What really helps vim beat PyCharm/IntelliJ for me is the fact that I work with a lot of C code as well as Python. IntelliJ's C support sadly isn't quite there yet.

You're not missing anything.

His numbers do not add up to the same thing. In other words, 4709^20 != (4110^20 + 4693^20). (The difference is ~10^61 or so, whereas the numbers are ~10^73. In other words, they diverge at ~ the 12th digit, whereas many calculators only display 10.)
this heavily depends on the scale of the server of course. not everyone has clusters. your VPS that hosts your blog is an example of something where Salt or Puppet would be WAY overkill.
I'm glad to see that Factor is regaining some momentum. It made such good progress early on that it would be a shame if development didn't continue.
The linked author doesn't seem to have a clear thesis statement, but from the examples given (the Hadza and the Conquistadors) it appears the thesis statement could be something like this: "Each isolated ancient human community already has basically optimized microbiomes. In each such human niche, their traditional microbes can probably survive in that niche. Also, those same microbes will have been surviving for so long that second order optimizations (like ethnic genetic adaptation to the potentially harmful parts of their traditional microbiome package) have likely occurred. In the face of such 'bio-traditions', and their presumptively functional state, we should tread carefully, and study everything before we muck about too much."

This seems to me like an excellent argument for why people who grew up on family farms, or in jungles, or other vaguely historical places should not muck about too much with their microbiomes. Heck, even third generation New Yorkers are probably solid.

However, it seems to miss the point that urbanization, immigration, antibiotic use, and radically weird diets (to name a few factors) are happening all over the modern world.

Given the modern situation, having already been disrupted by biologically unprecedented events for centuries, it seems plausible that at least some of us are like sailors at sea, with the metaphorical equivalent of scurvy-before-its-etiology-was-determined.

Just as, if you have scurvy, it doesn't cost much to try eating citrus and see if it helps, it seems that for people who are already unhappy with their gut health, it probably doesn't cost much to experiment here.

If you can already see that your digestion/mood/hunger is funky by comparing it do to friends and family, and you can read the research on that suggests these processes can be affected by microbiomes, it seems plausible to me that checking out uBiome or General Biotics or one of the "dating websites for poop" (or whatever, I'm sure there are more of these things floating around) it doesn't seem that crazy to me. A bit crazy, yes. But way less crazy than the same experimentation would be for someone who is eating and living in the same manner as their mother's mother, and has no more tummy troubles than any of their grandparents.

I've published a little in this area, and I didn't know about the conquistador story, so the article was appreciated, but I'm also personally a fan of experimentation that is early, fast, and cheap and I didn't see any of the experimental cost benefit analysis that could have been there, and could have made the article better.

SPEED 스피드 – 'Don't Tease Me (놀리러 간다)' – Cover by 2KSQUAD
What always prevents me from using URL shorteners other than bit.ly or goo.gl is reliability. Might have temporary downtime just at the time when a traffic surge comes, or completely stop working one day and then you've got a bunch of broken links. Seeing (C) 2013 on a site when it's nov 2014 makes me not even take a second look :) Would fix that.
Well there are some people out there who have valid concerns about SystemD and in general, about Linux the big and bloated, unmaintainable, insecure monolithic kernel. Is that a valid concern? I am not sure. Is that going to be fixed by Alan Cox and Fuzix? Also not sure.

I like the idea of Minix, and that would be a good direction to move on, but the big companies who are contributing the majority[1] of the current Linux work are vested too much in Linux.

There are other projects targeting the same area, different approach though.

Also in other countries (like Canada) police don't even care about drug use as it's not illegal. So purchasing grams of a substance wouldn't even be worth a raid as they'll not find anything to charge you with and the fallout would be greater than the reward.

The political fallout in Canada for running a raid where nothing is found is massive. Warrant mistakes have landed police agencies on the front pages for weeks, if it came out they were doing raids based on next to no police work, not only would the police be under fire but the judges would be too.
I think the converse can also be asked: Does the Internet really not get it about the FCC?

Time and again, these government agencies (e.g. FDA) have shown that they care more about the companies than the general public.
Thank you sir. It might have been slower for some people since we weren't really prepared for this amount of traffic.

There is one big problem I see with IPv6 deployment: Hosting providers don't get it.

Yes, you can increasingly get IPv6 connectivity, but it's common that you get a single /64, or even just a single address. Now, I want to run a bunch of virtual machines on my server, with a virtual network or two between them ... and already, I have to use ugly hacks to get by instead of just assigning addresses using the standard way of doing things with IPv6. In the best case, I just have to ask for more address space, but even that is completely pointless overhead that only works as an incentive to use fragile network constructs instead of just assigning addresses where they are needed.

People seem to have internalized that addresses are scarce and therefore precious and therefore have to be conserved at all cost - they don't even notice that that was the problem of IPv4 (or at least the most important problem of IPv4) that IPv6 was supposed to solve, and which it indeed does solve very well, and that their efforts at conserving IPv6 address space cause more harm than they help.

Lots of hosters around here are RIPE members who have their standard /32 allocation (which they could extend to /29 without any further documentation required), so if they chose to assign /56 networks to customers, they would have space for about 16 million customers before they would need to request more address space from RIPE, and for 128 million before they need to justify any further need. But apparently they consider it better use of that address space to just leave it mostly unused and make it difficult for their customers to use IPv6, not even noticing that there is a reason why RIPE assigned them a /32 ...
Had a small twitter discussion with the editor of the article yesterday, that for example the data on trash is not comparable (different metrics in different municipalities, for example counting collected foliage or not), especially that it doesn't allow the conclusion for a national divide, based on some vague stereotypes. At least this fact got amended into the paragraph.

The bigger picture is that the eastern part of Germany got deindustrialized twice. The first time post-WW2 from both sides. In part by the US-forces who had seized the western parts, like Thuringia, but had to hand them over to the Soviets in time, so they seized anything they could easily move out to the western zones; We take the brain[1].

On the other hand the Soviets, who were way more strict in getting their reparations than their western counterparts, took apart a lot of factories and railways and shipped them eastwards.
Every bigger company that could, moved their HQ and center of operations to the western zones — where they stay until today — on their own as well. With them went up to 3000 mostly well educated people per day, in total more than 3 million (of 17M total) in the 16 years before the wall was built in '61. The motivation of building the wall was therefore economic in nature, since the GDR couldn't survive this ongoing brain drain with the mythical Wirtschaftwunder going on next door.

30 years later in the early 1990s after the fall of the Wall and the reunification the Treuhand, a state owned-holding, who's sole purpose it was to sell-off the former GDR state owned businesses to potential investors, kind of more or less knowingly finished off the rest of what was left of the industry.
Since not a few of the western investors were solely interested in buying up potential rival enterprises, so they could dismantle them shortly after. This left the east in a highly disadvantageous position with the west of Germany, since there were practically zero industry clusters left and since then state subsidies had could only do so much in creating the organic growth that was needed.[2 includes some good maps]

> where I can directly allocate memory in the heap

Doesn't the "new" keyword always heap-allocate? I guess modulo optimizations like "this is a value-class that won't escape the scope of the method: "in-line" it" (if that is a technique that is in use/possible). Also, it seems reasonable that an array of primitive values would actually be represented as a contiguous piece of memory in the heap.

Sorry if that wasn't what you asked about.
In general, a^20 + 0^20 = ((+ or -)a)^20, or 0^20 + a^20 = ((+ or -)a)^20.
I've actually found Systemd really great for servers. Writing unit files to start our web apps has been so much easier than the old scripts...

(Edit: how do I display two asterisks in a row? It's supposed to be number(asterisk)(asterisk)number.)

This is using Python, which does arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic.

Google's calculator probably uses floating-point numbers internally, and hence starts losing precision.
In my view - and I am not positioning this as some sort of universal truth or trying to persuade you of anything at all - they might be genuine in their informality, but that's not where the "fakeness" I mentioned above is coming from.

The relationship between teacher and student is a fundamentally formal relationship of trust with (one hopes) clearly defined responsibilities, authority, and so on. It's fake to pretend that the power differential between teacher and student does not exist. I don't feel like a professor who is overly informal right off the bat is honoring the relationship. (but they are sometimes a lot of fun at parties...)

I've never been uncomfortable with informality with a teacher once genuine friendship develops. That's different.

> If you want a scripting language, use python.

You know, that's what some people's attitude is towards high-level languages and performance: 'who needs a better C? Just write the performance-critical code in C and the rest in Python or whatever'. Just sayin'. ;) (obviously people who say this aren't working on kernels and browser engines, but still.)
You could at least entertain us with a real mathematical problem, even if not the one you were given, e.g. in how many ways can 54673350319220399841294938973353 be expressed as three times a square plus twice a (generalised) octagonal number. Bonus points for finding one set of explicit values.

Good question. To clarify, the $0.30 figure is simply the cost of servers per number of users. The figure may vary according to average space used by accounts and bandwidth.

The figure does not include administration, but donations may be used for human resources. After a reasonable amount is distributed, funds will go into the server budget, thus increasing the "days remaining" meter.

I will soon summarize this on the home page.
Well according the the theorem there is no integer solutions when the exponent is greater than 2.

> how to deal conceptually with its immensity in time and space

Yes! Dimensions (not even the most objective, physical ones) are not absolutes but subject to changing, creative interpretation through the abilities of our tech.

Compare the meaning of a meter when squirming vs walking vs cycling vs driving vs flying... Modern computing makes a mockery of our past capabilities for information processing / storage / transmission.

Put another way, "there is no bad or good weather, only different gear requirements."

Same goes for everything, not only distance & information, but also scale, temperature, calories, food, output, wealth, energy, users, complexity, manufacturing effort, ... and time! Both time as speed (how much happens in a certain period) and time as something to traverse (need to wait for a result for decades or centuries). With Diaspora & Permutation City I first learned to imagine a future where we could treat centuries with the same amused detachment with which we now treat intercontinental distances as we jet over the oceans.
i've found it much harder to block unwanted IPv6 traffic compared to IPv4... but part of that is just the addresses are so much longer... and I need to get better at iptables
It's actually a many-to-one mapping - going from traditional to simplified loses information, and people have to resort to natural language processing algorithms (mainly n-grams) when going back the other way.

Also, many of the "simplifications" are based on Mandarin pronunciations, and were quite incomprehensible to me as a Cantonese speaker when I set foot into mainland China for the first time years ago.
