It's only four more years before the patent on adaptive replacement caching expires. Then we can use it in memcached ...

The article barely touches on the subject, but the bridge was really unnecessary, or necessitated only by the nonsensical urban design surrounding the university. The student housing is not only on the opposite side of a gigantic road from

UberX prices have done nothing but increase in San Francisco for years. The minimum fare went from $5 to $7, the service fee from $1.35 to $2.20, etc.

The parents at my kids’ school talk about “trying” to get their kids to eat right. I just dont get it. You want them to eat something? You give it to them! If you don't want them to eat something then don't put it on the table. Th

I have a spray bottle that I bought to clean windows, because it can shoot a stream about 20 meters which is great. It is also labeled "sprays upside-down!" which is really misleading. I thought it sprayed in any orientation but

I've worked with ECMP routers where you can inform that router you'd like new flows to be sent elsewhere while existing flows continue to be sent to their established endpoints. JunOS for example has this feature.

Every service that Google operates is released with rolling updates and is fully preemptible, including the most highly latency-sensitive services and all of the stateful storage services. Google is an existence proof for the applicability

See my other comment on this thread. Even in that case you don't have to care.

Even in that case you don't need graceful in-place restarts. If you have multiple replicas of the load balancer and ECMP from higher on your stack, all you need is for your balancer process to 1) remove itself as a destination for new

This kind of thing is foreign to me because I can't imagine writing an application, to run in the cloud (as I always do) where I care if a single instance has some downtime. I always rely on something at a higher level proxying my tra

The deficiency of Tesla AP has been abundantly clear to anyone with eyes, for a long time. Only fingers-in-ears Musk fans cannot see that.

by ebikelaw 8y ago
Musk prefers to lie to the public and benefits from the disintermediation of the media that various Internet distribution channels have allowed. Tesla often makes clearly false statements. SpaceX, when part of their heavy lift rocket crashe

Don't you think there's also a place for law enforcement? In California many public works projects are delayed because inspectors regularly come to the work site, stop all work for the day, and interview the laborers on the site

The phone company doesn't hold it for you on your behalf; they don't have some frontend where you can query and see it. Google does hold it on your behalf. It's used for you in Google Maps to surface places you regularly go

That's not correct. Google location history also works with Google Maps and "the Google app" on iOS.

They keep it because it's useful to you, not because it's useful to them. You're just looking at it too cynically.

You can use kubectl run to make something run, only after you've got all your initial authentication/authorization squared away, and your nodes are deployed. Assuming you work at Google you can "borgcfg up" your job and

I would argue that borg has much less initial complexity than kubernetes. Because of Google's integrated systems you can take any local binary and run it in borg with a five-line config file and one command. You can't get starte

At least the AD website usually works on weekends. Many of these companies’ websites apparently need constant manual correction to continue operating, with the result that i often find I can’t download datasheets on Sundays. Bad for the hob

ADI is a remarkable company and they seem to be doing very well these days. If you’d told me ten years ago that in 2018 all of the old-line semiconductor companies (ADI, TI, etc) would be trading at all-time-high stock prices I would have t

Speaking of disconnected from reality, you seem to be claiming that poor people travel, which they don't. In yet another example of American inequality, the bottom income quartile of families are quite stationary; they can neither aff

That characterization seems hilariously disconnected from the facts, which are that DARPA kick-started autonomous vehicles more than fifteen years ago with millions in government money, and that the vast majority of development of such vehi
