Is there some sort of consensus mechanism at work here, or is it closer to circular replication a la MySQL?

Both of those other memes are on the decline right now: https://www.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=creepy,cree... You'll find they peaked in 2014, and it took them until 2010 to become popular.

Can I ask why you decided to partition Postgres like this? It looks like you have time-series data based on the examples, and you wanted quick dropping, am I right?

What about the controller? Also, why not use ammonia? I can imagine that condos could also use this in places like SF.

I'm surprised we don't have that happening in places like China or Saudi Arabia. I wonder what the Huawei compound would look like.

There is a datacenter in AZ that takes advantage of low cost night power. They have giant underground tanks full of a proprietary solution that they cool down at night, and then during the day the use it to keep the DC cool. My guess is it&

P4 has been really interesting for a while. Barefoot networks is where the author of the paper went, and they've been working on an ASIC for some time. People are also building compilers for P4 that are targeting other runtimes like BP

I'm really interested in building an RNN and training it against something like movies. I'd love to then take it and input a song and translate it to a music video that's a composite. I'm also interested in the legal ram

I doubt it. What prevents a Chinese citizen from installing Skype? Nothing. It's the payment and protocol that are blocked. Looks useful for command and control type applications though.

What's the "cost" of registers on an x86-64 chip? How hard would it be to introduce 10 more general purpose registers? Ones that are used by the kernel, say, and one set for user space.

You can have a computer last far more than 3 years. If you buy a desktop PC, and you upgrade it, and do maintenance on it over the course of its life, it can last 7-10 years (I have seen some of these beasts in offices), but you usually spe

This would make Wal-mart the biggest production Azure user in terms of actual traffic. That'd be a killer position for Microsoft to be in.

I think with Intel starting off on FPGAs, we might see some sanity. It's clear that those FPGAs can compute with GPGPU workloads, and depending on their adoption, we might see similar tooling.

Gossamer threads is the closest. But, in so many ways, Gmane is just more reliable, and tends to pop up so much higher on Google.

It depends on what you're doing. For purely computational workloads, Go, and Scala kick Elixir's ass. For highly concurrent workloads where you're edging up against GC, Elixir, and Go kick ass. It all depends.

Yeah, but you can't really run a unikernel directly on EC2, you'd want to run RHEL / Ubuntu / etc.. on EC2, and then a unikernel in that.

How are most of you able to do uni kernel deployment and development? I've found that my primary deployment target (AWS EC2) is disqualified since most of these run times need hardware virtualization support.

So, the PALs can be completely disabled at the pull of a plunger. This plunger takes <1s to pull and I'm sure that 1 of those soldiers on base could pull it. Once this happens, the bomb is no longer immediately valuable as it has to

Yes it does. The US nuclear weapons have PALs, and although they're not remote disabling functions, they require special codes, which are not given to the host country for arming them.

Yeah, at the time, I exercised 4-5 days a week, with intense cardio and a bit of weight training. Even with that my cholesterol levels were at an unsafe level, and we were beginning to see odd side effects. Those side effects were enough fo
