If you're doing a build-and-flip, the incentive would be to limit the payouts in order to decrease the cash flow and improve the margins.
Also, if you're selling a DDoS-protection service, it's good business to not work too hard shutting down DDoSers.

SSH agent forwarding is extremely risky. Anyone with appropriate permissions (legitimate or illegitimately gained) on a machine you have connected to can use your credentials to open a new connection to any machine you have access to.
There are many possible causes, but the biggest one is that openssl is notoriously slow at the handshake process. Changing the cipher, playing with DNS, turning off unnecessary features and tuning the order of operations can speed up the process. Otherwise, try a different ssh daemon that doesn't use openssl.
A fully-scriptable editor (not in CL but emacs-lisp is pretty close) with a modern package management system is pretty much just emacs+melpa
Yes. To identify something whose fields change over time, it needs a name (even if that name is just a GUID or address). Well without fields, you don't need names, but this isn't a very interesting case (it is hard to scale up programs with just what are essentially global variables!).

Values are anonymous in contrast: you can't really tell the difference between this 42 and that 42.
You can often scan your phone/card much sooner than when you're presented with your total. I tap my watch at the grocery store as soon as I'm finished loading up the belt.

Flying low actually helps you against ground-based watchers, because they don't see you for very long as you zoom over them. You're on the ground and you detect a drone... and bam, it's gone.
The interop story really needs to be fixed quickly. There will always be some rough edges but things like basic collections (Sequences, Lists, Arrays, ImmutableArray, Option...) and high performance things (Tuples, Tasks, including ValueTuple and ValueTask) must just be fluent across the languages even if it means backwards compatibility is broken or the types work less than ideally on both sides of the fence.
Yeah US layout + Compose key is also my setup.
I have been following microvms and kubernetes lately. Nice thing about leveraging OCI is that you can use cri-o and orchestrate using kubernetes. I am pretty bullish on microvms.

Weavework has been doing quite some good stuff around OCI interface around microvms. Ignite[1] which is more robust and productize version of what is mentioned in this blog. Other projects that should be watched out for is kata containers [2]

I just love CLI apps due to the sheer power they provide me and for composability. But every time I do any file operation I still get a tiny bit anxious. Did I mistype anything? Will some of my files get overwritten? Things like that. Compare `cp` on a brand new machine without aliases and colours with something like copy resolution dialog in DoubleCommander or `rsync --help` with the interface of the FreeFileSync, which provide copious amounts of feedback (or feedforward).

It's just a silly preposition. We need both and we'll definitely get use of the new ways too, if they ever come.
Sounds great, I'm going to adopt this idea
Ultimately, the two are indistinguishable without a unified theory in hand.

There is no guarantee that if a unified theory is possible, it is expressible in mathematics; or even necessarily in any form smaller than the universe itself. We have been lucky for a long time.
Did you build this? If so I think you could do with giving us some context. Where is the data from? Why does it look like there are virtually no bike thefts in Scotland? What does this do other than show where large groups of people (and their bikes) live?
I'm not sure you and OP are talking about the same thing. What you're describing as a a tech interview (as I understand at least) sounds like a delight to me. I enjoy talking tech and am happy to wax poetic on any of those topics. But the tech interviews I've recently done (for web developer positions) have been more focused on com-sci concepts and whiteboarding exercises (sometimes in front of 3-4 people on a video line) on arbitrary things like solving mazes according to special rules or building a donkey kong clone in javascript. Generally nothing that you would do as a web developer. I'm a fairly accomplished developer, but it's easy for me to look stupid in front of even a junior developer when I'm writing code on a whiteboard. I use google a lot while I work (without shame... until I'm at a whiteboard) and I reference other parts of the codebase for context. The best offer I got was from a company that did exactly as OP suggested... gave me a short contract job and evaluated on the code and my interactions during the job. That's also how I've hired developers for my own startups, and the results were excellent... they've all gone on to top-tier companies.
Ah, yes, my mistake!
Netflix support for the Wii is also being discontinued:

"Services MUST increment their version number in response to any breaking API change. See the following section for a detailed discussion of what constitutes a breaking change. Services MAY increment their version number for nonbreaking changes as well, if desired.”

Of course you want to mention that a new field was added and what it is for, but why do you need a big notice? Your clients should just continue to work.
Alternatively, in a GraphQL server, everything becomes POST and it all becomes meaningless.
No, they’re not a treatment. They may aid someone who is in treatment, though.

I know an abuse survivor who has been in therapy for many years working on the impact of it. We avoid movies with abuse depictions as it causes severe disassociation and setbacks in that treatment.

Someone for whom it’s triggering but less severely so might just opt to watch said movies with a trusted friend on a day they’re feeling emotionally sound.

They allow folks to choose the level of exposure to optional, potentially damaging things. Just like an R rating on a film might make you pause before bringing an 8 year old to the theater.
As a data point, in big tech the Sr staff (L7 at G/FB) and higher is no more then 2% if ICs.
Yeah, I usually distrust any stocking information - unless my need is urgent or I'm after some unusual item (like something handmade rather than manufactured) I assume a) that it's BS and b) that if it's that popular, it'll be back in stock soon enough, or available elsewhere.

The social proof of seeing other people order, oddly enough, I find much more persuasive even though it's just as subject to manipulation. Maybe I'm just jaded from the ubiquity of 'hurry in, this offer can't last' advertisements on TV, on the weekly coupon junk mail that shows up in the mailbox and so on. I always wonder why car dealerships make such a huge thing out of their sales, given that they seem to occur on almost a monthly basis.
I'm interested to see what others say here. I commented on this type of activity over the weekend, saying you shouldn't make it public.

Now we get to watch. Does anyone care? Will all of us freelancers have to start requesting full payment, by check, upfront?

Or was this all sorted out already, and the details simply weren't posted to HN?
>You guys have to convince us first that mixing content+structure/presentation/logic is the best way to go forward in web development for the following reasons 1,2,3 ..etc.

There are a million articles and talks that provide exactly this. If you don't find them convincing that's fine, but don't act like no one is providing them.

> I see people advocating for dispensing of "separation pf concerns" & "progressive enhancement" in the name of "progress" and "modernization"

If that's what you see then you're looking in some weird places. The drivers behind React aren't just vague ideas like "modernization", they're the real-world benefits people are seeing when developing and using these new ideas. You're doing a disservice to everyone by fabricating the reasons behind these ideas just because you don't like them.

>in reality it's just a lame excuse to regress to a state of affairs that we guys fought too hard to combat it

This really just seems like a stodgy "get off my lawn, kids!" approach, which is at odds with your "I hate dogma" statements. Do you honestly believe that people are pushing in this direction solely as an excuse to regress things and make it worse? Even if you think that it is "regressing" things, you can't possibly be so conservative and entrenched as to actually believe that is people's goal, can you?

And mass redundancy situations are very different than firing some one for poor performance and where there are poor employment laws you get more instances of wildcat strikes or violence used.
Thanks for the compliment ;-), regarding your feeling of manipulation: I think it's impossible to block all persuasive tactics in general. Let's take for example social proof: a set of positive reviews and their respective number of stars mentioned at let's say a product listing is a form of persuasion that, if taken out, makes the listing far less valuable. Is that something you would see that the persuasion-blocker would remove from sites? ;-)

Ted Cruz is well known for being 2 people. A Texas monthly pc a couple years ago caught both sides at once when a staffer kept letting an elevator door ding as it was being held open. Ted was doing his politics side with the reporter and lost it on the staffer then went back to gentle Ted.
It's a different kind of stuff but I find Jeremy Grantham pretty insightful. Grantham does more overall market levels rather than individual stocks, Buffett the reverse.

The u option making it keep only unique lines, for anyone else left wondering.

Personally, instead of re-learning how to do stuff with vim-sepecific commands, I just use the existing command line tool, especially since I don't do this on a daily/weekly basis (but I use sort in command line pipes at least weekly). The command is literally "sort" and for unique you just pass the -u flag, e.g. select something in Vim and type :!sort -u

You are talking about a different layout, which I also dislike.

I'm talking about "AltGr dead keys", in which the quotes are available directly and the accents are entered using e.g. AltGr-'.

I'm using 6 european languages occasionally, of which 3 every day, including French. Of these, Canadian English would be only useful for French (e.g. it does not have a tilde dead key AFAIK) and is still different enough from US to be annoying for programming (e.g. the angle brackets are in the "wrong place"). Certainly a big upgrade from AZERTY though!

EDIT: My remark on the Canadian English layout above is based on the first layout that showed up when I googled it, but now I noticed that a lot of different variants come up in the search and I don't know which one you're using. In any event, they all seem to be weaker either for programming or for non-FR/EN languages or both.
This is a great idea! Its one of those things I have been trying to find for a while, but I didn't know what it was I was looking for... if that makes any sense.

Thanks :)
I think you're right. I think it's unfortunate that it's come down to this point where the degree is making itself less and less relevant by getting away from its own roots. Glad to hear you like it too :-D!

Technically you can get some nominal charge per text, but most people have an 'unlimited texts' plan. It's like buying a phone and not having minutes now days

I do understand. One of your complaints is "Mistake three - It doesn't work if your phone is not connected to the internet."

That is not a mistake. It is a direct result of the fundamental insight that enabled whatsapp to become what is is - being stateless. Your first two complaints are technical, but the third is a business decision that optimizes their product to fit the needs of the market.

This is a by the by, but surveillence in the context of business requirements means something different. For example, financial companies need to surveil their employee's messages for illegal activity.
What I don't get is why it's necessary to have comedy to get people engaged? What is it that news requires the 'chaser' of comedy? I don't think we can attribute it to people being base/vulgar. Why can't a serious, well researched news program do well? Why does there have to be a chaser to make it successful?
Blackberry can go fuck itself.

Blackberry had a qwerty board on their phones long before anyone else and yet they decided to rely on being the only player in town instead of innovating. I hope Firefox OS takes over and the Blackberry CEO has no choice but to switch to it because of the great ecosystem.
Even with "at will" employment, workers still have some protection from termination. For example, anti-discrimination laws prohibit people from being fired for a number of reasons, including their race, gender, sexuality, etc. Another form of protection covers union activity. This is what's at issue here.
Peehaps use this form?

Good to know I can freely choose between AMD and Intel chips then. Let's hope lowRISC doesn't implement a similar attack vector.
I think you're right--if lenders were underpricing default risk before, they'll have to factor it in now and the cost of borrowing will go up. I'm not sure if I think that's a bad thing.
As a TV developer, I say connect a PC to the TV already. Making a 37-in TV that sells for £479.00 is a major feat in itself. The panel leaves scant margin for a SoC. Porting various codecs and runtimes to run on the said SoC is easier said than done.

I can't continue a discussion with someone with your attitude. You're not reading what I'm writing carefully, or providing meaningful answers yourself. You've just classified me as someone who needs to be talked down to, and proceeded to talk down to me.
If anything it focuses more on the latter. Moving towards equilibrium isn't actually a meaningful concept in most of economics, since equilibrium is just the technical term for what happens when everyone acts in their own interest (e.g. Nash equilibrium) and correctly anticipates other actions (which in almost all economics models, does not require learning).
As a parent I would not be afraid of crime but of traffic.

> if the state of California continues to insist that cell phones have kill switches allowing remote instructions to be executed on your phone that you can't countermand or even know about

California cannot "continue" to insist on this, because it never started to insist on it.

The California kill switch law does not mandate that you cannot cannot countermand it, and it certainly does not mandate that you cannot know about it. In fact, it would be pretty hard for a consumer to not know about it since the law requires that you be asked to set the kill switch up when you initially set up the device. You can refuse if you do not wish to have the kill switch.
One task of HN moderation is penalizing stories that don't fit the mandate of the site. Duplicates are part of that, though of course a story can be a duplicate without being inappropriate.

They feel obligated to take a stance and pretend they didn't see it coming. Facebook enabled a lot of dubious people run campaigns and get in power in a lot of countries. I guess they'll never do anything about that anytime soon, they're making very very good money

I’m generally a fan of lulz for any reason, and I’ve long since lost track of where SPJ was working (I thought he was still at MSR).

But what’s wrong with video games? That shit is creeping up on the NFL right?
True, I was talking about the general case.

This is a bit similar to local variables: they have to be allocated on the heap in the general case, but Go uses escape analysis to determine which local variables can safely be allocated on the stack instead, which is much cheaper.
I’m happy to see this launch. We use Census for the same thing (mostly to get data from Redshift into Salesforce), but there don’t seem to be that many other companies who do this well.

I am interested to see how long it’ll take someone like Fivetran to buy one of these new “reverse ETL” companies so they can be a full end-to-end solution.
That's actually annual. It's the total sales from February 2020 until February 2021.

Reading down the proposed spec sheet, I'm starting to see how crappy the competition is!

* Apple MacBook - Nothing configurable. Expensive and not build to be repaired.

* Microsoft Surface - Much the same, but with Windows

* Lenovo Thinkpad - A little more configurable than a MacBook, and much better value, but still difficult to repair. Missing premium features like an Aluminium case.

* Dell XPS 13 - Much like the Lenovo, but the Linux option is nice.

If they pull this off, developers are going to love it. I really wish them the best.

My advice? Make sure it works _flawlessly_ with the top 3 Linux distributions.
I'm on a kickstarter that was supposed to ship in the fall and they've had quite a lot of trouble working with manufacturing partners to sort out quality control and pick one. Harder to discuss a physical object when you can't be in the same room.
I accidentally half way started this type of project the other month when I wanted to quickly change themes along with toggling dark / light mode in a bunch of different terminal apps.

I got things set up to where I can run: set-theme gruvbox or set-theme one and it'll switch color themes in half a dozen apps. It also supports an optional --toggle-bg flag to flip between dark and light mode if the theme supports it.

Ended up being a fairly small zero dependency Python script that I put together in a few hours. I made a video about it here https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/a-terminal-tmux-vim-and-fzf-t... and the script is in my dotfiles at https://github.com/nickjj/dotfiles/blob/master/.local/bin/se....

But it wouldn't be hard to make the script more general purpose and put the configuration in a YAML file instead of in the script. Then add attributes for each supported app along with how those values would get replaced. If the app supports plain text config files it could realistically be done.
that's actually not a bad idea
Which part? The part of also integrating SMS functionality? The part where I can message my other contacts who aren't using Matrix via SMS and finding them by phone number? Having a good marketing strategy?
