What is the point of the new module system? The current package system works fine. This sounds like it's going to break a bunch of stuff, particularly shading and dynamic class loading which I'm currently using. Java should look a

This sounds bad. It looks like the main motivator is to make the open source version of the project "not docker" and move the binary distributions "CE" and "EE" to another licensing model. I hope they enjoy fra

Front and back end have re-diverged. Years ago we had event driven UI and OS provided widget toolkits. It was less artistic but more efficient than the web for the longest time. Front end development wasn't a position. Instead, compani

Anyone have a link to some benchmarks? As much as I enjoy the hype train sometimes, I'm not finding hard data on how much faster this is than the current React/Preact/Inferno . So much hype and no words about performance... I

The account is likely shadowdead or some variant of it. A lot of places have a "silent ban" to stop unwanted trolls from continuing to make accounts. The "silent" part means the user is cajoled into believing they'r

I find automated UI tests to be a massive waste of time in every shop I've worked that used them. Just smoke test that all the inputs do something and unit test anything else you care about. UI testing is an antipattern

I never considered DRAM errors on the drive... Maybe that's one of the big cost differentiators of those super expensive commercial grade SSDs.

You are probably right. In the same sentence as India he also mentioned Spain but nobody there seems to care. I know nothing about Indian and Spanish culture so I can't speculate on the reason.

I don't think you get what I'm saying. The bit rot that happens to your data usually happens when it's in the RAM. The CPU likes it there when you're doing anything with it and once you're done editing a file it wil

I feel comment sections on well targeted sites like HN are better than peer review sometimes. It's not uncommon for an industry expert or creator of a product to Koolaid Man into the comment section around here.

I hope. It wouldn't be such a big issue if Intel stopped stripping ECC from desktop CPU's. Traditionally bad ram causes more bit rot than damaged drives. Ram get less reliable every die shrink, everything should be ECC by now.

Eh, I think they'll be fine. A solid product and existing userbase. They'll either get auctioned off for a few billion or showered with enough money that they can't possibly fail for at least five years.

My clients mostly liked Avada. It's easy to deal with mainly. Still requires a bunch of CSS hackery to get things setup how you want but that's pretty much just how WordPress is. I recommend statically generating the site from the

Uninstalled it many years ago. Check about once a month and stay signed out. I totally avoid it otherwise, too intrusive.

I am not at all surprised by things on the internet being scary or inappropriate for kids. Let alone YouTube or really any site with user generated content. It's no different than parents that let their kids rent whatever videogames th

Is this just blind forwarding or does that include some decent routing logic? I've looked into kernel bypass but I keep shying away because it seems to proprietary, especially the virtualized flavor which seems to be Intel only

This is related to the human tendency to overestimate the danger of unpredictable risks. The danger of a major financial disaster for a healthy and educated young person in a developed country is much lower than it seems. I know many such p

I want to avoid getting into a political spat on HN, but I think that reinforces my point that everybody is spying on and sabotaging each other regularly. We're obviously on different ends of the political sphere but I try not to be to

I have been peeking at the code behind SETI's detection of repeating signals, you might find it interesting.

I knew I would draw some fire with that one :) . Telling people the system failed has them pointing the finger back at you. They've seen the system work plenty of times before so people that don't make it just suck. I ended up fin

Neat! I've heard you can get line rate on slightly bigger packets without bypass using IPVS with direct return since it bypasses part of handling. In a lot of scenarios the big pipe is right at the load balancer so this is useful.

I've seems lot of people from other branches of engineering and medicine on HN. My guess is that biology is just an interest in the natural form of tech, seems to be a lot of overlap.

Linux can route traffic over 40G on regular hardware as long as packet sizes are fairly large >~150 bytes. I would guess that serving static assets from ram would be able to saturate that on a single machine

I like this, but isn't it essentially the same as manual curation? Not that I see anything wrong with that. I've lurked /new for a long time and noticed more and more spammy articles increasing the noise factor. I really thin

The problem for me, and perhaps many others, is that the "smart" are sorted out early and carted out of regular classrooms. If you miss the boat it gets substantially more difficult, almost impossible, to get back on that track. I
