> Private photography by individuals that can't realistically pool their recordings is something entirely different.

That's more or less the situation with CCTV cameras though. Its not like there's some national control room where people sit and watch every camera in the country 24/7. Most CCTV cameras are being recorded to a hard disk or video in the premises their located, and for authorities to access it they'd have to turn up in person and ask to see the videos (assuming the storage hasn't been reused yet).

People here are missing the point, where it's "less", "more" or "just the same" level of surveillance as 1984 is kind of besides the point.

The point is he's asking for a Geneva convention for the Internet, and I think that would be a good thing to have, even if some abuses will exist, at least we'll have a framework other than the current "whatever the spy agencies can come up with in terms of surveillance is a-okay".
Seems a lot of effort for very little in the way of amusement or indeed much else.

First it was a setting in the preference panel, preventing you from installing non-MAS apps without disabling it.

Next it's the upcoming rootless OS X, System Integrity Protection: it's only a matter of time until the ability to install non-MAS apps is completely removed, buried, or hidden in Recovery mode (as the SIP setting is)

I suspect this will happen within the next one or two major versions of OS X.

I've recently added a repeating popup reminder to my Mac - it pops up a dialog box every 30 minutes that says "Are you wasting time?".

I see two main differences between traditional and cctv-enabled surveillance, the first being that traditional surveillance requires participation and the second being that traditional surveillance is deployed after suspicion.

These are not minor differences; participation means equal opportunity and "fair play", and it can't be stored for future use and retroactively used against people for future perceived transgressions. There is a limit to the traditional surveillance that a society would bear, while the latter is nearly invisible. It is a powerful tool to be able to track your political enemies at any point in the past.

I'd be surprised if no one at GitHub has said "we're being DDoS'd this morning." GitHub is a website. It's also a company of people who probably identify closely with the product they build, like many of us. I don't think it's that crazy to use "are" here.

The police can already do the latter by having officers follow you. As long as we're talking about individuals, I don't have a problem with letting them use cameras in the same way.

The real thing we object to is dragnet surveillance, and we should think about how we limit police power accordingly. It might be the case that there's no effective way to prevent abuse of cameras in this way, and the only thing we can do is remove them. But if we reach that conclusion, it should be argued from principles, not kneejerk objection to cameras.

Ask HN: How to plan your career for an Architect role?
Hi HN,

I work in a company, where I do Javascript and Java dev works. The work is challenging and I'm loving it. Its been almost 3 years, I have been in dev role.

I want to became an Software Architect; thats my ultimate goal. But I'm not sure, what all consideration, I need to keep in mind, while I work as dev role so that I can became an efficient software architect in the future.

Currently, what ever technical problems that occur in my work, I could able to debug and solve most of them. I do read every year atleast an technical book.

With all these in mind, I want to ask few question to HN:
1. How should I plan my career path from dev to architect?
2. Should I measure myself, say every year, how I have grown in my knowledge? If so how?
3. What all best qualities an dev should have to became to an good architect?
4. Other plans if any, kindly let me know.

Thanks HN.

Technically, that's true of course. I myself use the “computer” part only and shun the “AppStore” part as much as at all possible, but Apple is renowned for the deep integration of all kinds of components and there comes a point where you just don't have a choice any more. I seem to see the area of free choice getting smaller with every OS release.

This setting in Preference Panel is opt-in, not opt-out. Default behaviour does not reject non-MAS apps. Most likely a security setting for companies or restricted environments.

I don't have any citations to back this up, but I had an interesting discussion with someone from one of the defense research labs in the UK regarding the accessibility of private CCTV cameras to the security services (I collaborate with them as part of my work). He said that what people don't realise is that in fact a very significant proportion of the private CCTV cameras in the UK have their management outsourced to a few large private sector companies. Gaining access to their systems is obviously a much easier proposition than having to negotiate with the actual owners of the properties. Whether this happens already I don't know, but I think it's a relatively plausible way for a government to build up a worrying monitoring capability.
Yep. Using Chrome. I don't see the high CPU or the audio issues aside from respecting the settings though. Maybe I should give the other browsers a try! Thx!
>> they are in public places. Places where anyone can film you at any time.
> Except when they're pointing at your private property.

My understanding in the UK is that (apart from some "special buildings") if I'm on public land (eg a road) I can film anything visible from that spot, even if it is your private property.

Edit: Have just realised that we're talking about CCTV cameras rather than me romping around taking photos with my camera.

With regard to CCTV, I believe it has to be properly signposted with contact details, but I'd have to go read up again before I could properly comment.
It's not just "does it work?" but "what kind of customers are you getting?". Twitter seems more productive to me than any part of facebook, which seems to desire to ravenously consume one's life. It's only a slightly less consuming task than some online games (MMORPG).

You're purchasing time from people that are busy, and productive, and have a life that on the whole it not completely virtualized. Compare that with Facebook and MMPORGs of sorts, and there are some highly successful virtual people who live real lives in mobile homes and shitty apartment complexes. Not to say their overall quality of life is bad, but maybe their balance is off kilter some.
Supporting your point about Genera:

http://www.symbolics-dks.com/Genera-why-1.htm

Modern stuff caught up to quite a few of these. However, we still don't have a platform where (a) entire system from kernel to apps is in same language, (b) apps can use any code in system for their benefit, and (c) any problem anywhere can be debugged by loading up relevant source and current running state. I thought (b) was cool but (c) would be a godsend for troubleshooting.

A possible alternative for folks who like the idea of pen & paper, but also wish they could keep digital copies & not have to keep sheets of paper around - take a look at the Galaxy Tab A S-Pen models (or the Galaxy Note 10). I find it still puts me in the same mental mode as pen & paper, but with the added benefit of syncing my handwritten notes to Evernote so I can refer to them everywhere. I used to keep a clipboard full of paper handwritten notes, this has eliminated the clutter for me. I take my tablet a lot to coffee shops as well for planning & deeper thinking.
Ah pastoralists, longing for the utopia that never was, while blind to the gargantuan progress we have made.
Correct. In the same way that government-organized torture in Singapore wouldn't be published in La Haye because they've never signed any international treaty about it, citizen spying is legal in the Western world because there is no global treaty about it.

You're right that we need a framework, like a Geneva convention for the Internet. However, I'm afraid that the willfulness and the balance of powers isn't the same as for the Geneva convention itself.

I completely agree. As a hardware maker (e-watches) with KS experience (2 campaigns), I find it frustrating that hardware projects on KS start with a negative perception from the public. It seems to me that a track record indicator is missing on KS. Like ebay feedback or a star-rating system...something that people can quickly look at and determine the level of reliability of a returning hardware maker. The number of project created is not enough...it does not speak about level of satisfaction.

And we have heard this for how long already? Doing so would basically be suicide for the Mac. First of all because a sizeable chunk of users are technical users. Secondly, a lot of software is not available in the Mac App store and likely will never be (I think Microsoft and Adobe would rather abandon OS X than giving 30% for each cloud subscription to Apple and being at the mercy of the MAS gatekeepers).
I see the same tendency and I don't like it at all. It seems only a question of time until you will have to decide whether you want a computer or a Mac.

Architect is a not-standard role in tech. Sometimes mean a thing, others a different one.

That said, normally it's referred to people dealing with architecture problems, not so involved with the specifics on a single system, but on the interaction of different ones.

- If you want to plan to career to be architect, either ask for it if your company has this role or keep an eye on openings in other companies.

- It's a work which involves a lot of communication. Create good design docs, convince people of your design and solve their doubts, get requirements of different parties to have a design that covers everything...

- Learn about different languages and systems. Be able to see common structures (e.g. design patterns) and when to apply and when not...

- Learn about "the support parts" of software. Logging, HA, scalability, deployment... Everything that makes a production system truly "production"

Banksy was always more interesting for his visually interesting images and choices of location than his politics though, and some of his best graffiti was literally "about nothing". I've always imagined him as someone who spends his nights as a caped crusader against consumerism but designs print advertising for FMCG companies for a day job...

Anyway, it can't be as unoriginal as the "I'm going to take the highly original step of lampooning Paris Hilton... and fuel demand for an album most of us didn't realise she'd released" stunt he pulled off several years ago. But that got more attention than most of his street art too.
> Dismaland is, quite literally, art about nothing. Consumerism is bad, Disney is evil, advertising is dishonest — we got it.

This is just a completely nonsensical statement. Since when has art been about intellectual knowledge? "Yeah, yeah, trees are beautiful, I get it, stop with the landscape paintings please".

The purpose, at least in this case, is to take something that people already probably know, on an intellectual level, and give them some more visceral reaction to it.

And, to repeat myself from the last thread about this, Banksy is repetitive and cliche-ridden, but if marketing/advertising/campaigning bludgeons the point home (Eat such and such fast food and have a happy relationship with your children! Use such and such deodorant and have a sexy girlfriend! Have you absorbed this political talking point yet!?) it's only fair that people trying to puncture that are allowed the same license to labour the point to the edge of boredom and despair.

Very true. I use a MacBook Pro and I recently tried altering my workstation for that very reason. I bought a stand for the Pro, and a bluetooth keyboard and magic mouse. Sometimes I HDMI it to a larger screen and work farther away from the laptop itself. So far, it's been working very well for me and I'm probably going to change my other workstation to accommodate this as well. I don't feel as "slouchy" or tense when I'm done working.
