Feels to me like romanticising certain experiences more than they have merit. Yes I've also traveled before the Internet, and frankly we just sought information from books and locals or friends that had gone before. In some ways collec

I used to be mostly a Python guy, fell in love with Clojures syntax, you get used to it surprisingly fast, and it's caused me less headaches than 'interesting' pythonic syntax. That having been said, I still love Python too.

I am a relatively unhappy user of mesos marathon and chronos migrating to k8. While it would take a long time to mention all the reasons and I might do a writeup, one of the main things that pushed us to k8 was the code quality / bugs

Nitrogen fixated feltilisers, our agriculture industry at its current scale is only possible due to fertilisers produced at mass from natural gas. There are other side issues that contribute too.

There was a question posted in the techcrunch comments section regarding Nitrogen fertiliser from natural gas being used heavily in vertical farms such as this. I understand thats the case for a lot of agriculture regardless. That having be

So to respond, yes I generally suggested the above for dry climates, I have also lived in humid climates and agree to all the comments regarding them. However I am willing to bet we use electrical heat pumps out of sheer convenience even in

I hate to say it but AC always felt like thoughtless engineering and consumerism, especially the electric varieties. It's ironic that in a sunny, energy rich environment, you spend extra energy on a heat pump. In a lot of environments

Do you want to build a safer basket ? Or invest in two baskets and split your eggs ? To some extent that is one argument, however space research in it's own right has generated a safer basket as well, as most engineering research is hi

Sadly enough a lot of doctors are complicit in it, after all a lot of doctors didn't get into it out of altruism, then again the same can be said to apply to a lot of developers, lawyers, and several other professions. My comment was i

What I would like to understand is why are these startups defensible. The tech value proposition is in running these algorithms, often tensorflow at scale cheaply in production. Companies like Google/Facebook/Palantir often have a

A lot of 'managed' hosting providers are pretty bad with security, there still is a major provider that just gives root credentials to all servers to all techs not just admins, doesn't audit who accesses which credentials, an

Moderators and professionals in this area, like police officers, are often the least psychologically prepared to cope with this, they also often receive the least support in quality and time to do so. Psychiatrists receive a lot more traini

That's interesting, did you control for changes in other diet elements, exercise, and water intake ? Some more recent studies show that except for short term spikes in blood pressure, salt isn't that guilty for high blood pressure

Sigh, about time, even for the US this was starting to drag, I wonder how much it had become about saving face ? Either for the US actors or the Swedish assets.

I think that might be missing the point of something like uber a bit, they could very well just rent you the self driving cars of individuals when they are not using them. Once self driving features hit most cars, companies like uber will b

While the question doesn't really specify use case, I am surprised HDFS hasn't come up yet. I guess this is focusing a lot more on online object stores for web use versus data processing distributed storage.
