I think what happened is these are notes some person took during a class in which Eric Schmidt was being interviewed. So the questions and answers are whatever the notetaker was able to get down in real time. The entire content likely par

Sure, even salt supports an agentless mode, but these are designed as afterthoughts. When you look at all the agentless mode versions of these tools you find that it doesn't fully support everything the framework is capable of (i.e.,

There are a lot of reasons to use ansible, but in my opinion the one thing that sets it apart from other orchestration frameworks (saltstack, puppet, chef) is that it's agentless. You don't need anything installed on the node ser

But I'm not exactly making an argument for information density, except that "it's kinda a weird thing and we probably don't know how to calculate it without assuming a whole lotta things". In my opinion, your extre

I agree with the sentiment but not with the arguments put forward. It's just a little ironic that the first example put forward (carvings in a stone tablet) is represented as a jpg image. Even the text of the article itself, consider

Of course, this doesn't actually work, because you have two root elements in that expression. You have to wrap them in an enclosing tag or inject them another way.

I'm also a big fan of hg revsets: https://www.selenic.com/hg/help/revsets Granted, it's not a commonly used feature by solo devs working on their own projects, but is useful for team repos that get large

Encryptr's security bits are likely all implemented in the crypton framework. If you search the repo for that function (randomString), you'll see that it's only used in one place: to propose a new password ( https:/&#x2

I used to (as recent as a couple months back) work at SpiderOak. Encryptr is connected to SpiderOak in a couple ways. First, it's build on top of crypton ( https://crypton.io/ ) which is a SpiderOak research project.

I notice that when you're trying to calculate whether a point (p) is in a circle (c) you use euclidean distance: Math.sqrt((p.x - c.x) ^ 2 + (p.y - c.y) ^ 2) > c.radius If you're doing this test many, many times (especia

The author might have had in mind some other video while writing that. This is another video from that same researcher that shows this: https://youtu.be/LQ88ny09ruM?t=1m5s

This is levels worse than what Javascript does though. Most high-level languages have some sort of implicit coercion (even python lets you do truth tests on non-boolean values). The problem here is the programmer isn't confused about

For anyone already using nginx in their stack, I don't think these things (being a newcomer, or needing credibility) are a very big concern. Some people are already used to using nginx as a load balancer for HTTP traffic (this new fea

This will probably sound very negative, and while I think there's a need for a nice library to help bring to light what happens to data in your code, I don't think the pyscribe way of doing it (using sugar to transcribing a piece

You should definitely continue with your product, and you've now got a big stamp of product validation in terms of a huge company putting resources into the same market. To be clear, you should still do your own validation study (get

I think it's inherent in the power structures. We develop AI to serve us (clean our homes, do our math problems, manage our schedules). They're basically slaves, and that's fine so long as they have no sentience. Once the

For the most part I don't complain if asked for an hour (or less) worth of work. I mean, I probably spend more time researching the company, working on the cover letter, replying to communications, and scheduling follow-ups. I'd

Bitbucket has had this for a long time time now (years I think). I've been waiting for (and complaining about lack of) side-by-side diffs on github for some time now.

While I agree it'd be interesting to see how libuv event loop performs against the nginx event loop, keep in mind that if you're deploying a web application, nginx has a ton of other uses. For example if you need SSL termination,

That's true, but the hope is these media outlets have the ability/integrity to be critical of their sponsors when it is time to report the news.

krunner has been around forever and lets me launch any program (even command line ones) or switch between open windows. It's bound to alt-f2 by default but you can remap it to super-key if that works for you.

A softball scholarship could be more useful than a personal fund of equivalent value: sad fact is sports scholarships can get you into a school you might not otherwise be accepted to.
