So, are people who work for microtargeting platforms (FB etc) war criminals?

IIRC you could always overcommit in Mesos using DRF weights and accepting resource offers in your application. I could be wrong. The larger point is that Mesos introduced a new, exciting way to do truly distributed allocation (where the clu

Mesos made a ton of new contributions to distributed resource management. Resource offers and application integration can allow high cluster utilization and efficiency. Giving applications the opportunity to take part in resource allocation

In almost all cases, the support of these giant corporations is towards feature-sets that are inherently self-serving. In many cases, they wield too much power and hijack the direction of the opensource projects. For example, there's p

You can apply this logic for any wasteful activity. Lets boil the ocean with coal-fired plants, because something something production vs. consumption.

Sorry, why is this downvoted? There is a serious argument to be had about the source of income for surveillance and tracking driven websites. If the oft-used line of "users being products" is true, then where's our profit?

So, do its main revenue generators (i.e., users) get a share of the profits?

Very interesting and different way to "visualize" non determinism. The connection to quantum mechanics is intriguing...

I have always wondered what common usecases such systems address. How large are the graphs typically? Are graphs really that big that they dont fit in a single machine?

OK I had missed the kata containers blurb in the FAQ, thanks for pointing it out. In fact the tweets make my point: we are all so blinded by new shiny releases that we forget their highly incremental nature.

Clear containers (now called kata containers) did this more than three years ago, with similar performance numbers (sub 200 ms boot times). It is frustrating, but not surprising, to see the same regurgitated solution receive this much excit

How many custom kernels are out there? Given the already sad state of most user-space software, do we really want a proliferation of supposedly light-weight kernels?

MPTCP's bandwdith aggregation properties are cool---you can effectively use all your network interfaces for (MP)TCP connections. Has anyone deployed it in data-center/cloud environments? I know that both Apple and Android support

I've always wanted to switch from python's matplotlib to ggplot, but never found sufficient advantages to make the switch. Especially considering that I use python for doing data analysis, and pandas+ipython-notebook can be tightl

Infact, Table-1 in the paper confirms this. The astronauts that went to the moon lived significantly longer (65 compared to 56 years).

by kraemate 10y ago
What about the relative lifespans of the astronauts? The ones selected to go to the moon were probably older, fitter, and more experienced when they made the trip. Did they outlive the other astronauts and the general population? Since mort

I have always lamented the lack of such automation techniques on Linux. Even though Linux systems are open and free software platforms, their desktop interfaces are ironically less programmable as compared to OSX and Windows.

Wow, thanks for the script. Surprising in its simplicity. I would have thought this use-case was popular enough to warrant specialized tools etc. Especially in the scientific community where they transfer large files.

The first poster in that thread was just asking for trouble, bringing that know-it-all attitude.

Surely, credit-card info can't span 100s of terabytes, even if they record each and every transaction.

Does anyone know what data is Facebook trying to archive? Old user posts? But that doesn't fit this usecase because of the high latency. Or maybe its just a nice content delivery mechanism to the NSA. Just ship a bunch of blue-rays ins

I'm confused, doesn't Netflix use AWS for all their servers? AFAIK you can't run FreeBSD on EC2 without significant challenges.
