I definitely see it beneficial for upgrade reasons though. I know a lot of people upgrade their phone now because their camera isn't as good as other options out there. Their phone will be working perfectly, but they'll swap out phones for that sole reason. In a case like that, one could simply upgrade their camera component. Same goes with the other components as well, very similar to custom built deskop towers. You have the freedom of taking your time with upgrading components on an as-need basis and on top of that you're able to decide how much of an upgrade you want. Top of the line? Just slightly better than what you have now?

There's also a lot of possibilities with unusual add-on for scientific measurements, add-ons for employees in service industries, add-ons for hacking(think of repurposing your phone as a microcontroller similar to RPi), etc. There's a very wide and diverse market waiting to explode from the possibilities.
>That's not how WiFi works. They cannot know for a fact that these WiFi hotspots are within the convention space, they could and likely are, blocking WiFi located outside of that space.

To play devil's advocate, some APs support rogue triangulation. Ours plot any rogues on a building map so we know exactly where they are. When combined with a proper wireless survey, you could ensure that they don't deauth anything beyond the building perimeter. Not that I recommend that, since at the very least someone should be able to tether their phone if they want. But also because it puts additional overhead on your APs, which are usually already taxed in high-usage areas.
From sitting on both sides of the table, here's the gist of what I'm expecting to hear:

"Most recently I've been working at <company> on <short summary of project>. When I was there, I <two to three things I did which demonstrate that I'm awesome>. In my spare time I've been <something related to programming>."

The point of the question is to get you comfortable with the interview and give you the chance to say a few words on your own terms. The best thing you can do is show me you're someone who can effectively execute on a project, and give me some hooks that we can talk about in more detail.

Don't overthink it. It's an elevator pitch - it shouldn't take more than a minute or two.

One thing to note here, is that upstream mesos is working on removing Zookeeper as a dependency. That would at a minimum remove one of the three pieces.

Note that I briefly evaluated Chronos, but tossed it aside as a toy when realizing it didn't support any form of constraints. Aurora is a very nice scheduler for HA / distributed cron (with constraints!) and long running services.

It would be fantastic if Kyle would test out Aurora, if not only to break it so that upstream fixes it. He is generally successful in breaking ALL THE THINGS.
For PHP you can have a look at JoliTypo [1], much more up to date, tested, working for any style guide and using a real parser.

They don't, and you don't either. The attitude that hotspots' use of unlicensed spectrum is sacrosanct, while failing to extend that same doctrine to venue owners, just reeks of entitlement. The attempt to put one group of unlicensed-spectrum users above another has no basis in law.
Can we just let them be without asking them to place themselves on a gender spectrum or whatever the F?

How is asking them to place themselves into two specific buckets less limiting than letting them pick their place?
What about Thread?
It's nice that we have Google ensure our TP-Link router to function correctly, hopefully. I'm frustrated with my current TP-Link router since it often needs a reset once in a while. Btw, should this design be changed because it looks to me that the top is very good at collecting dust and dead bugs. I don't expect to buy this and box it.
I've installed countless of these for small businesses(N66U & AC66U & AC68Us) and haven't had any issues, some with over a year of uptime.

When Was the Age of Information?
I don't think they've blocked it. I can still search on id_rsa without issue.

However, The majority of the keys I'm seeing are either encrypted, test fixtures, or otherwise. There are many unencrypted keys available, though!

It's still surprising that people continue to check in private keys. No one learns.
The author of the original article is one Andrey Karpov. The Medium article is posted by someone called Sergey Vasiliev Marina Makarova and Andrey Karpov recommend". I guess it's the same Andrey Karpov in both cases, especially as hovering over the name Andrey Karpov on the Medium article indicates that his username is "Code_Analysis" and the original article was posted on the blog of a static-code-analysis company.

Seems legit unless someone's actually impersonating someone else. I don't quite understand why, if Karpov wrote the original article and is a Medium contributor, Vasiliev rather than Karpov should be doing the reposting. (You could imagine something like this: K is a senior technical guy at PVS-Studio, V is a more junior technical guy or is in the marketing department; in 2009 they thought it better to post things under K's name to get it out there, but now K wants only the more impressive articles under his name and lets V post the others. But this doesn't feel terribly plausible.)

As far as I can tell, strongest signal wins (assuming it's within transmit-power limits). Probably just as well, since adjudicating disputes over who owns what SSID in what space would be a total nightmare.

It makes sense to me. It was a feature they wanted to add to Sync, but they decided not to reinvent the wheel.

As far as "third party services" in Firefox goes, this isn't different from the search bar. Both don't do anything until you use them, and both talk to proprietary services. It's just that search is used more than link-saving is.

"Much of OpenOffice's recent decline may be due to IBM's withdrawal from the project. An anonymous informant alleges -- and web searches appear to confirm -- that IBM did nothing to publicize OpenOffice 4.1.1 when it was released on August 21, and that, since then, IBM developers have disappeared from the OpenOffice mailing lists."

You should do an AMA on reddit.
If you have DSL, the modem and the router are the same box, so if you want your own, you have to throw out the one the ISP gave you, and configure yours by yourself. In practice, I bet you could just call up the ISP if you're having trouble, but I agree that an ISP has an incentive to give you a good unit to start with.

James Altucher has some sage advice for founder types. Definitely worth your time to check out his blog.

I'm on my second marriage. (First one went 20 years.) I was very clear about my values regarding money and work with my second wife. I fulfilled every vision of the man she was looking for except one. She expected a professional or business man who put on a suit and tie and went to work every day at an office with a steady paycheck. Ties are for weddings and funerals, maybe. I constructed my post-divorce life (my financial needs are minimal) so I wouldn't need a dependable paycheck.

And I love living that way.

Which is one of the reasons I can and love to take on short term projects. Not needing regular income makes all the difference. At this stage of my life (turning 50 next year) having to give up that freedom would be reason enough to leave. Assuming of course reasonable compromises or adjustments and a family therapist didn't help.

Your life. Knowing yourself and how you want to spend your time on this planet is very, very important.

I think an unmanned only launcher is all we need. The reason anything in space is so expensive is not just getting the people up, it's all the shit they need. If we can launch fuel, parts, habitats, etc. for cheap, it would make the rest of space achievable. Achievable-ish.
Yeah, a little misleading. $29 is an intro price for a Standard domain-validated SSL cert.

A multi-domain cert (which is cool), $149/yr for 3 domains, +$40 for each additional.

EV Wildcard, $380/yr.

You can't have a geostationary satellite in "much lower orbit."

The orbital period of a satellite is set by its altitude. A lower orbit means a shorter period.

Since a geostationary satellite is one with an orbit above the equator and a period of 1 day, so its orbit matches the earth, and the period is set by the altitude, a geostationary satellite can only exist in one orbit. That's why the geostationary band is getting a bit crowded.
Uh, oh. He compares code to a having to share a phone number on a cell phone with anybody who asks, bad analogy, unless you can show me a phone number that adds or changes the cell phone functionality. Haven't seen that android exploit...yet.
for AWS...dont use access tokens/secrets, and just use instance profiles(theres a few mock metadata service projects). For other things, theres a bunch of services like hashicorp's vault or amazon kms that store passwords. kms + instance roles gets you fairly close, but its not really friendly to set up

This is amazing, good work!

Are you guys going to open source it or will this be a paid service?
Clearly, you don't live in a city. 2.4Ghz on any channel is nearly unusable in my apartment (5Ghz fairs better I think because it penetrates obstructions less easily). My laptop can currently detect >50 wifi networks.
As well it's interesting to see the different responses of teams when problems are raised.

Some are very thankful for the analysis, others don't seem to appreciate how important correctness is in this type of distributed systems. I find it's a good indicator of the maturity of the teams working on them, and how much I'm willing to trust each system.
heh - in 1997-1999 I was replacing a novel network on token ring with a new IP net. I had some B2B EDI crap that needed to be scripted to deliver files from us to Sun...

I installed several linux servers and hired a couple contractors I knew to manage the deployment. They setup these linux boxes and consulted supporting them....

I went to one of them on day and said "you guys should just start a consulting company offering linux support!"

A few weeks later, one of my consultants came back and said "Hey guess what! We are starting a linux consulting company!"

I was excited... we talked briefly about me joining them, but that didnt work out...

A little later - they were valued at over $1B!

Those consultants that worked for me on this in 99? Dave Sifry, Art Tide and Chris DiBona.... They founded LinuxCare.

I later met Linus at one of the conferences and chatted with him for a bit, I don't recall him not being friendly though... but that was the only time I met with him.
They absolutely notice it. I'm a father of two, ages 3 and 12 weeks. When I'm gone, my oldest acts out in a big way. Toddlers are naturally very selfish. They know that the remaining parent is stressed and they'll use this to get their way. It's incredibly stressful for both the kid and parent left behind.

I would love to someday participate in an incubator such as YC but I just can't imagine how my family would handle it--we're dual-income and my wife is active duty military.

There are lots of other conference centers. That Moscone happens to be the only big one located in downtown San Francisco doesn't make it a monopoly, that's merely a competitive advantage, and competitive advantages often let places charge more.

Not sure if this is the best place to ask, but since it's a router thread, I'll go ahead.

I'm looking to buy a router with better performance than the Linksys E3200 that I currently have.

Lots of VMs, torrents with many connections, etc are taking a toll on it, especially towards the NAT connection count limit (wifi signal/speed is enough for me).

ERLite from Ubiquiti Networks seems interesting, but it's not so popular and I'm past the days where debugging routers was fun.

Any suggestions?
>that is still legal, the problem they and the Hilten ran into is that they took tech' designed for security and mis-used it for monopolising the WiFi spectrum within their convention centers.

Why is this legal while the other practice is not? Say the conference center uses a wifi named HallWifi. Why are they allowed to block me from using the same SSID but not HallWifi2 or else? Also, what about blocking similar SSIDs like Hal1Wifi?

This seems one of those things where you have to write a 'I can't define exactly what is illegal, but I know it when I see it' law. I really don't like those types of laws.
No, that's exactly what Kilgard's approach is about, and it's backwards compatible with any NVIDIA card that supports CUDA, I believe.
I really liked "The Water is Wide", and his other books. Great author and glad he overcame his health issues.
> Literally the article this entire thread is about

As another commenter so politely put it, and received no censure, absolutely wrong. You're trying to make a distinction based on SSIDs, and SSIDs have no legal standing. The string "SSID" doesn't even appear in the FCC's decision. Reasonable people can disagree on whether this was the right decision, and as it happens we do agree. Reasonable people can disagree on which statutes, definitions, etc. apply. However, reasonable people can not claim that the entire thread is about SSIDs. To quote you, "Wow."
Well, basically, a $200 home router will peak well before maxing out a 150 mbps connection unless you turn off all the QoS, UPnP and security features... but at that point you're better off just using the eMTA (which can handle the speed because it never had any of those features in the first place).
The focus seems to be on handheld devices (phones, tablets, etc). But what if they went big to start, looking at traditional deep-cycle applications. Wet-cell batteries (like on golf carts) need regular topping-up with distilled water. AGM batteries remove that requirement and can be discharged deeper without damage, but still have liquid electrolyte in them. RV owners are now experimenting with LiFePo chemistry batteries, but the price is objectionable. I think there's a potential sweet-spot in there.
Whatever it takes for success. And pg is a genuinely nice fellow.

No kidding. Someone raises reasonable points, and the engineer responds with:

"Like I suggested before, you should stop by our offices @ 88 Stevenson for lunch some day, and you can chat with our best and brightest about this (and other things) until the cows come home. Then you can save yourself a lot of back and forth, and nerdraging about computers."

Aphyr spending his time finding bugs and unspecified behavior in their software is dismissed as "nerdraging". And instead of discussing it openly, he should spend a day and go to "88 Stevenson", wherever that is...

I'm going to assume he means Stevenson Avenue, Polmont, Falkirk, Stirlingshire, United Kingdom -- since that's the first Google result I got for "Stevenson" as an address.
FWIW, Amazon proactively scans GitHub for AWS key leaks, notifies the account holder, and flags the account (they will disable the account if they start seeing active abuse and can't get in touch with the actual owner to get keys rotated). So any keys you find are going to get invalidated in short order.

They're also pretty good about forgiving the charges for the fraudulent use.

> What is the best way to share things like API keys among a team of developers, anyway? I'm surprised this hasn't been solved already (perhaps it has and I just don't know about it). I know you can share passwords with tools like LastPass and 1Password, and I suppose you could use those for API keys as well?

Here, we have an IAM account for each dev. Permissions are basically read anything except a few sensitive things (billing, IAM), plus the write permissions we need as operators. We each have our own console login password, and keep our own access keys locally. It's pretty easy to add/remove accounts for new/departing devs, and the potential to individualize permissions is there.

So a particular bit pattern is an "emission, radiation, or induction" under the law? Interesting thought.

You could, but at that price it would most likely be a full desktop running pfsense, and who wants that kind of power draw at home? Comparable low-power pfsense boxes are about the same price, or even more for the ones advertised on the pfsense website[1].

The OnHub spec page mentions a draw of <36W[2], which is more than I would have guessed, but it's still less than most desktops. For a device running 24/7 in a residential setting, it makes sense to be low-power.

Here is a simple definition of critical thinking: Be critical of what is being said until it can be validated tangibly. It only has two requirements. The courage to question what is in front of you, and the tools to test and validate statements objectively.

What people trip on is often the "thinking" part. It plays on the myth that thought and logic is what solves problems, but in reality we need to be able to refer to something tangible -- such as evidence. If you don't have enough information, stop thinking and do your research (or experiments). Most evidence is rather obvious once found.

Anecdotally, fear and anti-science are the enemy of critical thought, and those who claim moral authority and depend on spin to achieve their goals have used these weapons time and time again.
