I have been working for various software companies at different capacities. Never did i see 90%+ employees care about their CEO . In a small 10 member startup maybe its true. Are there any OpenAI employees here to confirm that .. their CEO really matters ... I mean how many employee revolted when Steve Jobs was fired .. Do Microsoft and Google employees really care ?

Ok got it , something in lines of OpenFlow. Is there any documentation/links on this being used by AWS / Azure/ GCP .. I would like to read more on this.

Just curious "only the first two packets in a VM->LB->VM flow will traverse the LB. Subsequent packets are direct from VM-to-VM and are rewritten in the host NICs to merely appear to go via the LB address" , how is it possible to change the Load Balancer IP(VIP) to VM IP in a session . Are you talking about DSR(Direct Server Return) here ?

Why this headline other way around - It should be "Neil Young pulling his music out of Spotify" .. But this doesnt make sense ..Its free speech and opinions . Ex-President had millions of followers and was elected !! would that mean you move out of the country ..

Every product is a copy of something .. You have a platform and build something new thats it ..

Just curious .. when YouTube has it all . Why text recipes ? Personally I feel when you know recipe visually it’s better .

IMO docker did an amazing paradigm shift of many apps from heavy weight VMs to Micro Services,lot in CI/CD etc .. But all of them dnt make sense without an orchestration platform . Just like how a standalone VM does not make any commercial sense. This has been a question for long time about their revenue model. I guess they did try with compose , swarm , etc but the space was already taken by Kubernetes . I dnt know docker as company would be profitable ..

"Instead, the bill would give holders of cryptocurrencies up to six months to liquidate, after which penalties will be levied, said the official, who asked not to be named as the contents of the bill are not public. " - Its better to wait for an official statement than these speculative journalism

My kid 8, started with code.org which gives an idea of what coding is all about , then set him up with Python + Turtle package , which is a good start for kids as it has more graphics and get them started easily . There are few tutorials on youtube which make it better.

"A lot of spices are to cover the taste of bad ingredients" - Thats a very pretentious statement , i hear this from lot of stake guys. The use of spice is totally cultural, few do have medicinal value - the best example would be (Curcuma,Cinnamon etc) ..Some spices that are native to Asia/Africa make big difference in food flavors.You appreciate it when you grow up with it. I also understand why people appreciate meat without spices , it also involves which region the meat is from . From what i have experienced , the meat ( lamb) in Asia and Europe is totally different in texture. Its like fish , there is big difference between a lake fish, river fish and sea fish .

I think its a matter of taste. I have friends who say what big deal about mountains or beaches ..its the same everywhere.I accept that its their taste , and there nothing to look down upon it. To me every mountain n beach has a beauty to it when you hike them . To me when you travel , there are many aspects which you can experience , the people , the smell , the weather , the noise and chatter on the streets ,the food ( the most important aspect of my travel) . I love to visit offbeat villages and towns , personally that where i experience the feel of travel . These are experiences which IG cannot express

"Many Hindus come to die in Varanasi." Sorry this is an exaggeration , very few old people mostly around that region , most of them women abandoned by their family .

Its just not about the diet but also lifestyle matters(exercise ,teetotaler,profession) . I am surprised why these studies do not involve that as an index ?

I think any technology cannot be created fair from roots. As the technology evolves more fairness will be incorporated , as it would have feedbacks from all sorts of people. I feel this is premature accusation.

This is 2020 ,we are still talking about upper caste management suppressing lower caste in USA. If there has been 70+ years of equality driving measures taken , then this news shouldnt be there.I hope you understand how authority works in India, the Upper caste is already in decision making positions when this movement started 70 years back, i can very well imagine what would have happened. I m not supporting reservations , but there is always a benefit of doubt thats for the suppressed ones.

I m not generalizing all are well off . I do know of BPL families from this community , but thats 1% , the rest 99% are others. I want to emphasize the majoritarianism . While i was graduating in engineering ,I was the first engineer in my Family tree. I wanted to purse my MS in US, but struggling to find information and support , while my other friend from the same middle class upper caste community had all information + 10 cousins in US to guide and support him . I was working in startup with a Ultra Upper caste founder ,he brought in his dumb cousin as the VP PM.My friend who was from the upper caste , who was working his ass off was never promoted , the CEO was trying to do best for his community.

Lets put it this way , you guys had the privilege. AFAIK atleast 2 generations ahead with the reading and writing compared to other communites. Please dnt pick exceptions here. The community had a headstart privilege access to reading and writing. If you look at the data of professors here in US and the first generation of guys in US doing higher studies you know. So you have a community base here . Its the same with IITs and reputed educations institutions .

I guess this does not stop in Jobs but also in VC Funding . Most VCs/Seed funds are run by few upper caste Indians . They do have discrimination if you come from a backward caste . if you belong to the same caste , chances of getting a fund are more .

Just curious .. what really are the usecases where of Linear Algebra is applied ? Any domain of software development ?

This may work if you are single.With family and kids its hardship. I did this with my family ,now after 3 years i wanna move out but the kids find it difficult and my wife has her difference after kids.

I wonder what grand plan Thoma Bravo has, they are on a shopping spree on Network Security companies(Imperva,Barracuda,Sophos,Mcacfee...)

The problem here mostly is not about the throughput,which i guess most of the highend hardware could help, but in terms of how many connections it can handle per second is where the bottleneck is on the Linux Kernel.I cannot imagine a 1 million CPS linux kernel support now .. But the same is possible with a UserSpace TCP Stack .

I m not sure if github is blocked, i m pulling repos right now from Bangalore.

Nginx is much more scalable and utilizes less resources than apache. Apache uses a thread per socket , where as nginx is non blocking and runs with fewer threads .

There was time ,maybe a year back, where Microsoft turned out to be one of the Top contributors to Linux Kernel. They had to fix some issue on Linux kernel to run on HyperV

Thanks.. looks interesting.

Thanks.
