Plan 9's file system was called Fossil, and it had snapshot feature. Fossil was backed by Venti, a content-addressable storage.

A great post. Note that the post is specific to C++ and does not apply to, say, Java. Java is effectively always paying the cost of exception handling, so you might as well use it.

Note that Coinbase does have lending business. The reason it's not visible in their balance sheet is because it's not popular. https://www.coinbase.com/borrow

We don't, but it's good for Binance, so we can expect Binance to do so out of self interest. Avoiding wrong way risk is standard part of risk management.

CZ says the primary lesson is "never use a token you created as collateral", and Binance has never used BNB for collateral, and (by implication) FTX did use FTT for collateral. https://twitter.com/cz_binance/s

Note that public transports moving nearly empty doesn't waste much money: it's a common misconception. Rail is mostly capex with little opex, and fare is set above opex anyway. Tracks are already built and trains are already bough

Their experimental results are unconvincing. Authors themselves admit, "we are aware that using a D flip-flop as a basic memory element is not optimal". But "we chose a D flip-flop as a memory element since it enables embeddi

I am much more hopeful about Intel's chance at EUV than GP. In order to avoid repeating myself, here's my analysis of what went wrong: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32335873

It means, for example, writing a FreeBSD kernel driver for Elastic Network Adapter (ENA). Both Linux kernel driver and FreeBSD kernel driver is available at https://github.com/amzn/amzn-drivers

For Linux, there is a documentation at kernel.org: https://docs.kernel.org/networking/tls.html

Why haven't you muted Elon Musk yet? Do you want to see or not see Elon Musk's tweets? If you don't want to see Elon Musk's tweets, mute him right now. If you want to see Elon Musk's tweets, it's mighty strange

The Congress in fact voted to go to war with Afghanistan, 420-1. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authorization_for_Use_of_Milit... for details.

Yes you can.

If your definition of a good programmer includes being good at job hunting, maybe. Otherwise no.
677.
by sanxiyn 4y ago
It happens all the time. I was incredulous too, but companies are really bad at hiring. For example, many companies may not even interview a very good programmer if they didn't major in computer science. I am not sure why.

No, it doesn't.

Meilisearch supports ES-like document access control.

by sanxiyn 4y ago
You need a dataset and an evaluation metric. The usual evaluation metric is NDCG(Normalized Discounted Cumulative Gain): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NDCG An example dataset is BEIR(BEnchmarking Information Retrieval)

Sonic doesn't do any ranking other than latest first.
683.
by sanxiyn 4y ago
Yes, Meilisearch supports ES-like document access control.
684.
by sanxiyn 4y ago
I mean, Sonic doesn't store term frequency at all, so it can't do TF-IDF. It probably doesn't want to. If you need any ranking other than latest first, Sonic is not for you.
685.
by sanxiyn 4y ago
No. Sonic is a single node server and not distributed.

Quickwit does too (a subset anyway): https://github.com/quickwit-oss/quickwit

Quickwit is a search engine built on top of Tantivy (by the author of Tantivy): https://github.com/quickwit-oss/quickwit Quickwit supports Elasticsearch compatible bulk indexing API.

by sanxiyn 4y ago
This is very very difficult, but Tantivy tried: see https://github.com/quickwit-oss/search-benchmark-game

by sanxiyn 4y ago
Yes, it doesn't do any ranking at all. Results are returned in the reverse order of indexing.

by sanxiyn 4y ago
As far as I can tell, yes, this is correct.
