Can you explain how writing to Redis solves the zone update problem? Why do zone updates take a long time currently? Is it something inherent to the updates themselves or is it purely an implementation detail with the other DNS providers?

Interesting. Good feature nonetheless. Google is getting smarter in terms of how it uses site functionality. Note for admins and Dan G. (dang), highlighting would be very useful for HN as well.

Highlighting text with a wikpedia link is a really useful feature. I wasn't aware it existed. How did you find out about it? Is there a list of such tricks somewhere on wikipedia? The description of anytime computing reminded me of res

I do not share your perspective and fears then. The point isn't that a computer can beat Magnus, the point is that computers helped him reach his full potential and the same technology when expanded through AI can help others in the sa

Do you have an example of a mind extremely different from a human one? I ask because if we assume that human minds are Turing complete then there is nothing beyond human minds as far as computation is concerned. I see no reason to suspect t

Point is you could do it if you really wanted to learn enough complex analysis to understand the theorem and its proof. AI progress is impressive but it's nowhere near anything people can do when they sit down to think about stuff. I d

Good to know and even better than my proposed solution then. If the language supports it directly then there is no need to write sub-process shims for managing permissions.

You could implement this by fine grained imports and subprocess execution. Node.js actually has a very nice sub-process communication API: https://nodejs.org/api/child_process.html#child_process_subp... . At some point
