I’m going to write a bot that blocks everyone talking about Bitcoin, then searches people they follow for people talking about Bitcoin and blocks them, and so on.
That’s right, I’m creating a block chain.

Aquarium rewards dolphins w/a fish if they bring a piece of litter or dead gull (to help keep pool clean)
One dolphin starts (1) tearing pieces of litter into smaller pieces & trading each piece in for a reward & (2) stockpiling fish to lure & kill gulls

Black Mirror S4 spoiler-free review! (episodes listed from most enjoyed to least):
4.6. Black Museum (reminds me of White Christmas)
4.1. USS Callister (fun, but I was annoyed by how infeasible the technical premise was)
4.4. Hang the DJ (kind of telegraphed the ending)
4.3. Crocodile (felt like a police procedural)
4.5. Metalhead (would have probably appreciated it more if it wasn’t a Black Mirror episode)
4.2. Arkangel (kinda boring and draggy)
Overall I liked S3 a lot more

A client updated their EC2 CentOS 6.4 instance to 6.9 using yum update. After the update and a reboot, the instance wouldn’t start up anymore (became unreachable)
The system log (recovered from the AWS console) goes something like this:

We’re all not too experienced with AWS so we don’t have much clue what to do. Any idea what we should be looking at or anything to point us in the right direction? The instance was actually a clone of production that we tested the upgrade on before doing it on actual production, so we have a chance to try it again and adjust any settings or whatever before or after the update.

This is a public service announcement that Firefox 57.0.4 has just been released. It contains mitigations for the Spectre and Meltdown timing attacks, so please update your installations as soon as possible.

I can just barely understand the details, but this is fascinating stuff
Quoted gsuberland's tweet:Explainer on #Spectre & #Meltdown:
When a processor reaches a conditional branch in code (e.g. an ‘if’ clause), it tries to predict which branch will be taken before it actually knows the result. It executes that branch ahead of time - a feature called “speculative execution”.

In a quiet suburban neighborhood there was a lot that had been empty for years. One morning nearby residents woke up to see that a tall and imposing black tower had appeared on the lot. It cast a long shadow over their comparatively small houses.
It had no windows, and the lone entrance was a large gray door of wrought iron. Upon the door lay a vicious carving of a monster’s head bearing a giant knocker. None dared approach the tower and they only spoke of it later.
Two days later a man in a suit arrived in the neighborhood. He walked briskly to the tower and without hesitation lifted the giant knocker. The bang of the knocker echoed throughout the neighborhood.
From their windows the residents watched as the man in the suit waited for what seemed like an eternity. Finally, the wrought-iron door started to budge, and residents swore the metal creaked loudly upon stone with an otherwordly wail.
From the darkness beyond a tall figure emerged engulfed in a hooded cloak seemingly made of even blacker darkness. The figure towered over the man in the suit and the morning sunlight showed only a hint of bluish-gray skin underneath his hood.
They stared at each other for a long while, the hooded figure and the man in the suit. Finally, the hooded figure spoke in a deep voice that seemed to reverberate across the area.
WHO DISTURBS MY REST, the voice boomed. The man in the suit held a fist to his mouth and coughed before speaking. “Sir, I’m from city hall. You can’t build a tower here, you’re violating at least three zoning ordinances!”

I have a query using MarkLogic node.js that basically boils down to something like this:
db.documents.query(qb.where(qb.collection('test'))).stream() .on('data', function(row) { console.log("Stream on data"); }) .on('end', function() { console.log("Stream on end"); }) .on('error', function(error) { console.log(error); }) ;
Now, for a certain collection we have in our database, the ‘end’ function doesn’t fire, i.e. I never see “Stream on end” appear in the log. There’s no error or anything, processing just stops. It’s only for this particular collection, other collections seem fine.
If I query documents in that collection directly using other methods such as qb.value() without using qb.collection(), the end event fires correctly. But once I add qb.collection() into the mix (using qb.and), the end event doesn’t fire.
I’m unsure how to debug this, as this is my first time trying to use streams in the nodejs client library. Any advice as to what I can check?
Thanks!
