While I respect your opinion - it's easy to see how long it really does take new comers to get proficient in anything (a really long time) - I'm not sure exactly how replaceable highly productive people are. I read this as basically "If you don't make it out of software and into management by 35, you're hosed." I don't see why system architects can't code fairly regularly - are you claiming that to be effective and valuable you need to spend all your time corralling people? They may not working tickets, but they are probably doing high quality prototype work.

That all depends on how grandiose your executives' lifestyles are. I wouldn't put using a 747 as a corporate (or even private) jet above some people.
Why does it matter? I think your mistake is assuming that people believe the "change the face of computer science" bit. And perhaps this person had a particular reason for putting this up (wanted to show someone), and doesn't actually feel the need to push every line of code they write. I feel like very few people are as obnoxious about it as you describe, but even then - again, so what?

You're more guarded about your code, that's perfectly fine, but not everyone feels that way. Code that's shared has the potential to benefit and inspire others (even stuff some might see as trivial or silly), code that's hidden doesn't. I see nothing wrong with erring on the side of openness (except with account credentials of course!).

Whether it's shell literally, or "shell" as in, the window from which you ultimately perform shell-like things, there's still a place you perform these tasks and knowing when you are in simulation or actual is an important state to track.
I agree with this sentiment. If your policy is to keep all your code PEP8 (ideally by making it part of your test suite), then the amount of commit messages which are "PEP8-ify" will be pretty small.

If you take a blatantly non-compliant codebase and PEP8-ify it, you'll have many "pep8" lines in your git blame for a point, but by integrating it in your process that will disappear pretty clean.
I think you're discrediting 'social media sharing' a bit too much - that is where people share their actual knowledge, experiences and ideas. Granted, some of those people are my mother and her COPD support group, but social media is not entirely vapid and not to be dismissed for its cultural relevance.

Even setting that aside - there are billions of people online, and (quick google) almost a billion websites. That's not a culture, that's a continent. You can't encompass something like that in so simple a narrative.
Apparently it's for sale. The 747sp.com ad roll says so anyways.

@statico cmder is definitely a great thing for windows, however it's fault buggy due to way it operates.

Overall the best long term option is to simply stop developing on windows and start using Linux, docker, mono, nodejs etc.

I did this 10 years ago, and the situation on windows still hasn't improved.
There are times when I lie in bed at night and stare into the shadows and think to myself web based administration is probably always a bad idea.

Unfortunately, the alternatives are unthinkable for everyone who isn't a programmer.
I think you should forgive yourself a bit more: Back in 1995-8 most programmers never took JavaScript seriously because the "real code" was be done in a language like Java or Perl. We tend to forget that in a pre-web 2.0 era it was sort of seen as a hack to do small things rather than giving an app a front end.

Besides if you really wanted to make a career mistake back then it would have been to master Lingo.

Burning Money Experiment
Is there any documented evidence that Fry's is sinking(/losing money)?

I don't doubt it per se, I just want to pin down that notion. I find it shocking that they outlived Circuit City and Radio Shack, so I'm beginning to wonder if maybe they're actually profitable and we're just annoyed that their target market doesn't necessarily capture us anymore (the way it did in the 90s and to some extent the 00s in my case).

(note: a descendent comment asking about a Best Buy reference pointed out that I inadvertently said Fry's outlived Best Buy; I meant Circuit City and corrected it, but that may just add more confusion with the resulting conversation)
That's why I don't want to do business with you. We already have a legal system to judge these things. GitLab doesn't need to take that on.

Also, the GG repo had nothing to do with revenge porn.

My initial post was promoting GitLab. I'm not sure I'm comfortable doing that anymore.
>I wish Amazon allowed me to cap spending to say 200USD...

Agreed. We use Google App Engine for our recommendation engine (https://recent.io/) and daily budgets are a core feature -- just tap on the "Application settings" tab.

We use AWS for some additional components of our service that aren't part of the core recommendation engine, and I've been surprised by the lack of a maximum-dollars-per-day setting. Or if there is one, I'm not aware of it.
> We don't delete repos unless explicitly requested by law enforcement or a DMCA takedown notice.

Yes, this policy sounds great to me.
Just a few good deals on some video games and more
There is a Fry's here and I like the store because it has a lot of computer electronics, and I've seen what you describe in action, I can't think that it is sinking either.

There are like 50 registers and not but a few are ever in use, and it is such a huge store with so many employees I can't understand how they can keep making money.
NgValidation – An AngularJS library for easier form validation
They're privately owned, so I'm unaware of any data. While an anecdote is not data in and of itself, the Fry's here in WA has been emptier and emptier (both in terms of merchandise on the floor and people) each time I've stopped by from 2008 to the present. I can't say for sure if it's a national trend, but out here Amazon Prime has eliminated the need of basically everyone I know to visit Fry's.
Walk into one on Black Friday. All the registers will be in use.

> I believe that CCD has basically been conclusively traced to a certain class of pesticides.

However, the initial data on bee deaths following the use of dust-off mitigation strategies, like using Fluency Agent, looks promising. Granted, it is still early days to be forming any formal concluions, but the data that is available shows a significant change. Even if we can point to neonicotinoids as the cause, where do we go from here if changing our handling strategies resolves the problem?
I do agree with you on a few points (like the sum total of unhappiness has increased) but man you do need to go out and meet some women who break your stereotypes. Everytime I make any stereotype I am really eager to find someone who breaks them and with women its really very easy because for every bitchy girl I meet, I also meet at least three girls who are super nice! You just have to keep going till you meet them.

I don't buy "shill propaganda" because I watch a couple of metric tons of CSPAN every year. The big companies just sponsor these things blindly. It's all rather bland. They do it sort of blindly - and it's not exactly Riefenstahl. It's very grey-corporate boring.

I just meant "damned if you do; damned of you don't" to bring up the odd position Americans find themselves in four generations against the natural grain of American isolationism. The infamous American provincialism is well-won.
The biggest advantage of fiber is often latency/jitter.

I had 4ms ping flat and 0% packet loss to local LA Quake Live servers when I had FiOS in LA. Almost LAN-like play.

Cable internet is always has much higher ping, more jitter, and more packet loss.

Supposedly I can get gigabit internet from AT&T here in Cupertino but they cap at 1 TB and I'm not excited about paying $110/mo for the equivalent of a ~3 Mbps sustained connection.

Anybody entering the market that has even a grain of intelligence would be spending their time both before and after being hired learning how to engineer software (language/framework agnostic) instead of forever monkeying around with a scripting language in a single environment. Doing anything less is eventual career and paycheck suicide. Python or Ruby are fine as starting points, but if you stop there you're fucking yourself over.
The testimonials remind me of infomercials that exaggerate people's struggles to do everyday tasks like cracking eggs or retrieving items from shelves.

Coordination between two bureaucracies has non-monetary costs as well.
Interviews and the many challenges you have no idea about until you get there are what keeps you alive and interested in new opportunities out there. That nervous filling you have, the multiple Google map checks to insure your going to the right place, the multiple looks in the mirror to insure you look your best is always a good thing. The best part is with any new job or interview there is normally something that your not used to that pops up that gets you thinking outside the box, even if you have been a Senior developer for a long time there is always something new and fun to learn that brings back the junior developer fun when learning new things from time to time.

This leads you to hitting the books and documentation again to improve your craft or brush up on the basics you may have forgotten about that you used to be able to code with a breeze. It's like going to school for a degree but mainly free, and at the end you have a wonderful feeling of fulfillment when you master that new skill or build a project integrating your newly acquired skills.
> it's in a position to be cutting edge for the maker scene

I remember in the early 2000's there were a lot more discrete electronic components. Last time I went you could still find the soldering irons and oscilloscopes and resistors and such, but it wasn't nearly as impressive. Kind of sad! I guess not as many people do low-level circuits hacking in the age of surface-mount parts and Arduino boards on Amazon...
What's this "outlived Best Buy" stuff? Best Buy still seems to be operating.
John Fry is the only pilot I know that has a private pilot's license and a 747 type certificate.

Most 747 pilots would have ATP.
Good point. I wonder how useful that is in practice with the amount of traffic going through the Tor network. It seems to me that the more people use it, the harder it would be to get accurate correlations. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if some clever math can do so more accurately than has been published.

I think we'd see more "private cloud" usage; put a secure box in your house with all your data you want to access elsewhere, give photo/video links or hashes or decryption keys or whatever to your family and friends, etc.
IIRC, a regex that matches a generic AWS access key will also match a git hash.

Oh wow jeez that's embarrassing. I was thinking of Circuit City and my brain just replaced it. My bad. Thanks for pointing it out.

You can list what problems you've solved by showing an image generated for you.

Ex) https://projecteuler.net/profile/daguava.png

But you can also use this to quickly test the status of accounts.

For example, I was able to find Euler is an admin account by trying

https://projecteuler.net/profile/euler.png

It tells you it's admin in the image, why?

Edit: Wonder if they're exposing some vulnerability with the HTTP 300 Multiple Files they're returning.

If you try something like this:
https://projecteuler.net/profile/.wat

the page confirms a .htaccess file exists at
https://projecteuler.net/profile/.htaccess
we also find one at
https://projecteuler.net/.htaccess

While currently inaccessible, this is significant information leak

All directories allow this, so you can do some digging to find what files exist.

Edit 2:while logged in, you can enumerate all usernames with a skill level attached by using URLs like

https://projecteuler.net/level=1

If you try changing the level to a period, the page conveniently tells you there are over 118k users in total (listing the first 10k), and MAY even show accounts without levels, but I'm not sure.

Combine this with the profile image URLs above and you may be able to find more admin account usernames if they have levels associated with them.
That gives me an interesting weekend project.
FYI, Azure already has monthly spending limits built in and suspends your account once you hit the cap.

When you go over your limit your compute services are all turned off and your data is rendered inaccessible until your account is resumed (which happens at the end of the month or when you raise your spending limit).

No experience actually trying, but I'd suspect the first step would be training a system on combinations of CSS and HTML; all the really interesting behavior comes from the interaction between the two.

Then I imagine you could do interesting stuff by e.g. constraining the HTML and seeing what kind of CSS was spit out.

You just get them from aliexpress in china, which is where most of these things are made these days anyway.
Don't forget the fact that they sell the same items for different prices in different areas of the store, and take the default position that you've stolen from them until you produce your receipt as you leave.
The closest thing for C and C++ is probably Debian's apt repositories and the like from other distros. Just search for any package starting with lib-, then look for the ones with the most results in apt-cache rdepends.
> Despite a certain illusion of sociality involved in these activities, I am of the opinion that they are uniquely anti-social

Makes me wonder about my 'choices'- did my anti-social tendencies arise from my interest in programming (and math, etc.), or did it drive me to them?
I'd also say to try to not get caught up in language/framework hype. Learn what you find fun or useful and use that as a springboard for learning other things. If you specialize too much in whatever's hip right now, you're going to find yourself somewhat marooned when that's had its day in the sun and something else has become cool.

> In case this is the policy it would mean we could not delete something like revenge porn ourselves

I could argue either way (I'm a bit of a philosopher that way...). It all depends on how you want to run your service. Do you want a reddit-free-for-all-wild-west or do you want to keep it PG-13?

Either way - it should be clearly defined where you stand and what you allow/don't allow. Making it a guessing game isn't going to win you any fans.

Five times $2 isn't much -- and sometimes I'm willing to pay to have something today: Not in 3-4 weeks. It's not like arduinos (or whatever) are something I'm burning through often enough to worry about a few extra dollars.

So yeah, I don't mind paying 5x.
We make decisions on a case by case basis and people can judge for themselves if they think it is reasonable. Clearly defining where you stand is very hard, and we don't think we'll do a good job at it. Giving a definition and then backtracking won't win us any fans either.

If you've ever tried to buy anything at any of their stores, you'll notice you get sales people asking to scan your items and print you a quote.

Is this a relatively recent change? And if not, are you sure it isn't for very specific departments, or certain price points or such? I don't go to Fry's all that often -- Amazon Prime blah blah etc. -- but I never saw them print out a quote sheet unless I did the internet price matching. The most recent purchase I've made there I can confirm is December 2013, though.
This is strange. Service at my local Fry's is absolutely terrible and they no longer try to write me up for a quote. I even bought a desk for $150 (which has to have high commission) and no one tried to get a piece of the sale. I don't think it works like that at my local one, or the incentives are completely rewired.

I disagree. The web is the way it is, flooded with click-bait, ads masquerading as editorial, opinion and political agenda masquerading as journalism, viral power masquerading as truth, because of the "free"[1] junk food consuming habits that most people are prone too most of the time. This utterly and fundamentally transforms the web for everyone, because there is little air left for alternatives to breathe, leaving them stunted if not still-born. The same damage that the article explains as happening to journalism is happening to all other important things on the web.
