I don't think of anomaly detection as being the end, it's triage. It shouldn't do more than "I found something that doesn't follow the normal patterns, let me page someone to take a look." And you need to use i

Do we really need the derogatory remarks in the first place?

Exactly, the logs use case is what we use Elasticsearch for.

Yes, I understand that, but what I would like is a distribution without any x-pack code. I don't want to have to figure out how to turn off and remove x-pack. What I'm concerned about is that it's another vector for security

Elastic is one of, if not the largest, contributor to Lucene anyway.

I'm wondering how this affects the distribution of x-pack. From what I'm reading, the new Free model probably includes it and we have to turn it off if we don't want it? I wish there was still an x-pack free distribution in t

We have! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ʻOumuamua But it’s small and moving away from us fast. We couldn’t build anything in time that could catch up to it and image it closer.

Nice! I’ll have to check that out! I used BRIEF back in the early 90’s developing plant monitoring/management software. Our products ran on DOS and Windows after that. I’d been using emacs at school, but BRIEF was our editor of choi

Ah, The Castle has been a favorite of mine since I was in high school despite it being unfinished. The shorter works are something I only started to enjoy about ten years ago. I have really enjoyed rediscovering the magic of Kafka through h

I’ve used react-virtualized to render hundreds of thousands of rows, it’s a great library. React-window from the same developer is also worth checking out if you don’t want all the bells and whistles.

I’m sure you’re making a general statement, but breaking a bone is pretty traumatic and the complications can be quite serious. I hope my kids never experience a broken bone. That said, I spent my childhood outside and never broke a bone m

My mongodb knowledge is probably a bit out-of-date here. It didn’t have them either when I was using it. Multi-document ACID would have been really useful, is that a feature now? That would be one data point against elasticsearch.

Just as an anecdote to the jepsen test findings, I’ve used elasticsearch at two jobs as a primary datasource and haven’t had data loss as mentioned in the tests. The tests are, at this point, pretty old and I’ve found that newer versions a

Depends on the version of elasticsearch you’re running and the use-case. If you’re running a single index with a well-defined schema, I think elasticsearch works very well. If you need many indices and can’t have a defined scheme, then it

A lot of people advocate PostgreSQL as a replacement. Why not elasticsearch? It’s also a document store with a good history. At a previous job I shipped Mongo as the store (under AGPL) because at the time the replication story for PGSQL w

In C, always use 0 and check for 0, it's the only safe way. For C++, it depends on the standard you're using.

Again, it wasn’t my use of the term “decentralized”, it was the use of the term in the paper . I read past the phrase for which you claimed to have dismissed the paper and understood their use of “decentralized” pretty clearly, as you s

by craigching 8y ago
I’m not limiting the term, that’s what the paper is about. And why I wanted to know more about your claim. Might be a good idea to finish the paper now ;). The paper is actually very interesting.

> If you want I'll name a few. Yep, that’s what I’ve asked above. Might spur a conversation if your claim is legitimate.

by craigching 8y ago
I’m not sure what you misunderstood, describing your skepticism would have added to the conversation. Having read beyond that statement, I’m actually intrigued. What “practical decentralized database” are you thinking of such that you did

I have to admit, being a hybrid math/csci student, I never understood the place of discrete math in mathematics or computer science. It always seemed like a mish-mash of different topics I'd studied in algebra->geometry->ca

They mention increased NumPy API compatibility in the article. Seems like that would cover what you’re asking for. FWIW, I agree, there are some things that NumPy does that TensorFlow doesn’t that I’d like to see. .T for transpose being o

Maybe an interesting discussion that would keep the link relevant is what the difference actually is? The table of contents do differ, but are very similar. Thanks for pointing that out, I was mostly going on memory, but looking at the To
