Lots of companies use SumoLogic https://www.sumologic.com/signup/.
The UI is very similar to Splunk. But having used both Splunk and SumoLogic, I personally think that Sumo is superior in many ways.

1. It requires very little hacking and setup to work (cough ELK cough Splunk) since Sumo is completely cloud-based. It literally takes 2 minutes to sign up, 5 minutes to download and configure some log collectors, then voila you're ready to send data and search. Also I believe you can tell Sumo Logic to grab logs directly from S3 for example if you're running everything on AWS.

2. SumoLogic is pretty easy to use (it's basically cloud-based grep/awk) and has some really cool features that makes Splunk feel clunky in comparison. Parsing and transposing data for graphing is really simple. Also little things like auto-suggesting sources/hosts while you're typing a query makes the experience much smoother than jumping around tabs copy/pasting shit.

3. If you start to generate a lot of logs, and I mean a metric fuckton of logs from 1000s of servers, Splunk Storm will most definitely not be able to help you. In-house Splunk / ELK clusters will need to be carefully sized (just google ELK sizing).

As software developers, we have enough on our plates that it really pays to use tools that help rather than make you wanna throw up your fists and curse. KISS
You're probably not, but you sound as if you're just jealous... You could phrase your comment better.

On topic: I too don't think "another brainfuck interpreter" is very interesting, but I enjoyed sort-of-a-compiler for brainfuck implemented here: https://www.hashcollision.org/brainfudge/ by Danny Yoo. You can get something out of even the most useless of examples sometimes :)
> Well, an instruction set is said to be Turing complete if it can be used to simulate any Turing machine. A single instruction can't

Incorrect. A single instruction can be Turing complete.

Though the relevant question is whether universal computation can be built on the back of an instruction which plays chess rather than one of the more typical bases for a OISC.
Okay then, with that definition no operating system I've ever used has "just worked".

Hmm. I was trying to be snarky there, but now that I think about it, it might not be so far off the mark...
This is leet.
I think the point here is changing from older RSA and DSA keys to newer ECDSA and ED25519 keys.

Most of the issue you're bringing up a prerequisite of obtaining and/or compromising the the target host's private keys, at which point most of the other attacks have little value - what's the point of MitM-ing a host if the SSH host keys only apply to that specific host, and you already have root on it?

The only issue would be if you could take advantage of a flaw in the ssh client and put arbitrary content in their ~/.ssh/known_hosts file, but I'm betting this would be pretty easy to mitigate.
This article was discussed previously. In short, it's based on numerous false assumptions. For example, Datomic is not based on an append-only B tree. It utilizes persistent data structures instead. Here's Rich's comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7011102
I'm not sure what you've come up with, since your post was deleted, but I'm looking forward to it!

I also home brewed a system very similar to what I described at my previous job. With the current information out there, it looked almost the same as relay, except without GraphQL. We implemented our own query/synchronization mechanism.
It's not full chess without castling, promotion, and en passant capture.

My work does as well. However, I roast, grind, and brew my own coffee all at home instead. Immediately upon finishing the brew, the coffee is poured into a 12-cup Thermos vacuum flask, the kind with a nice button pressure spout. With this, I get the benefit of drinking a cup or two before work, and the rest sits on my desk throughout the day, still piping hot when I'm ready for a cup.

Well, I'm born and raised American, and I still find it odd that people say "how are you" rhetorically here. What's the point? They even look at you funny if you respond with "Good!" Here in New York, you see an acquaintance in the halls, they say "Hey how are you," you respond "Good how are you" and the other person doesn't even answer at all! It seems extremely rude to me and I'm from here, I can only imagine what a foreign visitor thinks.

Ask HN: What are some good resources for re-learning the basics of programming
I have been programming for a while now, but not in a traditional way. I have done some Objective-C, Java, HTML, etc., but I never really started with a good book on C.

Can you recommend any books or resources that start from the basics of C, to good core concepts that an experienced programmer should know?

It's fine to pick and choose the things you stand for, but the man has to be taken as a whole (IMHO). I want to like Andrew Sullivan for some of the things he stands for, but he was also a vocal proponent of the Iraq war and many other issues that I stand against. Someone who says this about the Iraq war:

> the allied campaign was a model of restraint and liberation, the most precise invasion in world history

makes me think they've really lost touch with reality. I'm not here to say that Saddam Hussein was some angel, but to put our role in those words leaves me wanting better critical thinking.

Andrew Sullivan is a man and he has his good and bad. So let's not "one issue" the man and suppose that he's good simply because he's for gay marriage (a position that he stands to gain from I might add).

I'd rather see better, true "liberals", elevated over Andrew Sullivan. Glenn Greenwald comes mind ...

You realize business liability or professional liability insurance covers being sued (and legal costs) right? You're not giving a future lawyer much help to run a business with no contracts. That's nuts.

Everyone who releases open source code uses contracts, which all limit liability. Contracts are hardly something just for rich folk.

and also, what fraction of mobile is cpi, and of that, what percentage is just recycled vc money? Because we all know what happened to yahoo during the first crash.

The reason why this is happening is because your entrance pupil is small (1.3mm) and close to the dust.

The crop factor is what makes things bad here: higher crop factors means that for a given field of view, the dust is closer (because the lens is thinner) and the aperture is smaller relative to the dust.

Paradoxically, the dust is actually less problematic for more challenging exposures.

You may wish to use a wider aperture, on a 28mm lens and with modern sensors, f/22 is likely to show blurring from diffraction through the small aperture. The Airy disk will have a diameter of 30 µm, but the pixel pitch on a K-x is around 5.5 µm... which means that you have a ~6 pixel wide blur applied to your image before you even press the shutter!

But the good news is that the depth of field on a camera with a crop factor is deeper for the same field of view and aperture.
I've recently (and when I say recently, I mean less than 24 hours ago) found out that one nationally known tabloid actually copied my work on their site without any indications on where they found out about it. Of course, they haven't even put a link to the original work (which I published on my blog), but they were kind enough to let their readers know that "researchers" found out about it.

I can't even explain how frustrated I currently am by their action.

Once a run happens, the central bank has to make a choice on who to lend to based on imperfect information, though. The central bank might say, "I don't know about all these local real estate loans, let's let them fail."

It's the FDIC that removes this possibility.

Thanks for engaging in this conversation!
Agreed. The web seemed far more sincere in the days of Deja News. Today's search results carry all the candidness of a car lot teeming with felony-convicted-used-minivan-salesmen.

Somewhere, somehow, a switch was flipped and "discourse?" became "discounts!".
> Sure, let's blame all of society's problems on Facebook some more.

For you to make this claim, you are also claiming that the parent post is blaming "all of society's problems" of yester-year (pre-Facebook) on AOL. That's a rather obtuse reading, bordering on deliberate.

Luck has nothing to do with genetics or the history that created them. Any system that requires the coercion of subjects to submit against their will for it to be successful (it isn't and will not be) is a foolish approach to an individual's struggles through life. No one should order me to care about every drug addled fool on the street, it's not my concern. Nor is it my concern that some people cannot figure out what a healthy diet is, or how to build a marketable skill. I grew up in a bum-fuck nowhere and got into programming without college, schooled at home and no connections to the industry. I know enough immigrants to know this is possible for anyone working hard. I grew up with a 486 in the age of Pentiums because my father invested. Your ideas are trite and old, constantly disproved. But keep holding the large stick and acting like you're not trying to control other peoples lives, it will end up driving this country apart.

Why is it that so many people who say "society needs to do so-and-so" feel that they are exempt from doing anything themselves? It blows my mind that you see this as irrelevant. It's always somebody else that needs to do it. They apparently don't see themselves as part of society.

Sports get attention because people choose to follow them under their own volitions. If you want mathematics stars in schools to get attention, then why aren't you attending Mathletes contests? Are you attending/watching at least 16 city council meetings a year (same as the number of games in each NFL team's regular season)?

"Don't make it about me personally, it's something everyone else should be doing."

Meanwhile, the very people whose lives you want the sports industries' money redistributed to are generally the ones who are deriving the greatest amount of life enjoyment out of following those very sports.
This is an aside, but I'm curious why the noise in the reverse voltage of a Zener is preferable to just the Gaussian noise generated by a resistor. There must be a practical reason.

This post is years old, and those systems went into production in July of 2013.
Well, corporations are launching new products all the time. Each new product can be thought of as a
VC investment in a new startup.

However, the VC investors have to share the winnings with the founders, while the large corporations get to keep basically all of it. Oh, sure, the corporation might pay out bonuses and promotions, but this is a small fraction compared to what startup founders get to keep.

Thus, VC investors start out with a built-in disadvantage that they have to overcome: call it "founder drag." It's sort of like the race between active funds and index funds. The actively-managed funds have to overcome their higher expense ratio just to get back to even.
Could you use a DMCA-like thing to get them to stop doing that?
That doesn't make any sense.

Say the server is using key A, but you want to plan for the future, so you have it also offer keys B and C. But it's still using A. So clients connect, in addition to having A, they get B and C. Great, future-proofed.

Now A gets compromised. Or A is using a crappy algorithm that is easily broken. Mr. SysAdmin is happy since he's planned for this eventuality. Stop using key A, use B instead. Clients have no issues wondering if they should trust the new key (B) since they already have it in their known_hosts.

Attacker comes along. Somehow A is compromised (either that's why the admin moved to B, or the crappy algo made it easy for the attacker to get the key). Attacker uses key A. Clients already trust A. Connection compromised.

What I'm saying is that in this situation it would have been good if, when the server started using key B, it also had some way to send messages to client connections saying "delete A from your known_hosts" that way if someone does start using A again, it's flagged.

Yes, it's still a race condition. But much better than the alternative.
I think this is spot on, and I'd like to add my own thoughts:

1 -
An oft overlooked area where performance matters, is concurrency. It feels like it's taboo talk about performance and concurrency together, and it can be dangerous to mix the two too much, but they do go hand-in-hand to some degree. Take a web app. If you have 10K req, and it takes 500ms to process each request, you'll need 5000 workers (threads, processes, whatever) and some people to have the wait 1 second to get a response. Drop that processing time to 5ms and you not only drop the amount of workers, but also decreases the response time across the board.

2 -
Databases in general, and B-Trees specifically, are a great example of a generalizations. Redis shows us the performance benefit of using more specialized data structures (yes, Redis is in-memory, but the data structure are more important than the fact that its in memory (though the two are closely related)). At an extreme, if you need to list results in order, nothing beats an array.

3 -
The GC doesn't eliminate the need to think about memory. I've seen a number of performance-sensitive applications that failed to utilize a fraction of the 32GB or 64GB of memory that was available. A lot of developers just don't think about memory anymore. (I can't find it, but I remember a popular post that talked about this with respect to iOS' better performance than Android (while having less resources available)).
FB Mail wasn't as much email as it was email redirect. I could easily see them offering corporate email as part of the facebook@yourcompany, or whatever the corporate FB edition is called.

Maps, storage and productivity are great ideas for FB to expand into. They have the users, and the infrastructure to handle massive amounts of data.

Yeah. Andrew probably write something once every few months about why he prefers to interact with readers this way vs. comment threads. He's even polled his audience in the past and the _audience_ overwhelmingly favors interacting in this way, often echoing your exact sentiment.

Ironically, the parent serves as an example for the kind of thoughtless, knee-jerk commentary that comment threads can (and do) breed.
Wow! That was fast!
I agree that Machine Learning is not always the right approach but wouldn't it be a relatively inexpensive experiment to see if it could be used for more accurate predictions? I'm surprised that topographical patterns are mapped that precisely when ASOS and AWOs stations are so far apart. Also the weather data from commercial airplanes is so far above the surface that modeling small buildings would be meaningless.

I heard a talk from ex-Googler climate.com (now Monsanto) guys. Their forecasts were accurate enough to build a very profitable insurance business. I bet they used Bayesian rather than FEM techniques.
I forgo the coffee machine at work and brew my own as well, but just brew a fresh cup on demand, hobo style. Keep grinder, beans and vacuum sealer in an unused kitchen drawer.

Many of the arguments in favor of newer databases are about how much simpler these append only data structures make both storing and reasoning about things. The point of this article seems to be that this is neither absolutely true, nor new.
But the order does exists, it is in the orderbook and is available for anyone to the market to trade against.
With the number of companies that store company-confidential data in HipChat, the real question is whether or not it was a targeted attack on specific organizations, or if it was a general breach of access on the generic user database.

The current system, which includes plea bargains, is greatly flawed. Prosecutors in the US simply have too much power as well as distorted incentives. If they did not have this power then they would not be able to abuse the plea bargain system as they do. But eliminating plea bargains would not be an improvement. Despite the abuses it does improve efficiency and if it did not exist it would not materially reduce prosecutorial power although it would reduce the number of convictions per year. Bad plea bargains are a symptom, not the cause.
