Python? Good luck. Every frigging month (practically) it's a breaking change. You have to work furiously just to keep your infrastructure working, or purposefully draw a line in the sand (2.7!).

What? There was exactly one breaking point, from Python 2 to Python 3. Which "monthly breaking changes" are you talking about?

I think because they often focus on function and do not consider form as an important factor - which has proven to be wrong time and again.

Form and function are one.
That's really strange, isn't it? Because it only takes one major incident for a company to go entirely out of business in many cases. Or for CEOs to get ousted or step down, as in the Ashley case, or any number of other irreversible catastrophes. It would seem to me security should be the most important part of the entire process.
Slightly pedantic: "Discovery 1" email indicates that the $loginkey encryption was the weak md5 method until it was changed to bcrypt in a 2012-06-14 commit.

As a result, any accounts that were created before 2012-06-24 and that did not have their password changed after that date (which would generate a new bcrypted $loginkey) were vulnerable.
I think people can't un-know something, so I'd try very hard to get test subjects in a way where they don't think the people they are talking to are the ones who make the product.

For example, you could set up a fake market research org, and have them say they are "conducting a study on [your market] and are looking for users of products like [competitor 1], [competitor 2], and [your product]". Then for the user testing sessions you could rent a conference room from somebody like Regus, or even rent a user testing lab. Then during the tests, make sure to start with general questions and test (or show screens from) the other products before you get to testing yours.

I'm not sure if those specifics will work in your environment, but I hope you see what I mean.

Certainly the population of NYC must have grown significantly in the past 65 years

Economic stagnation in the 70s meant that the population of NYC has not always been growing.

And it definitely hasn't always been the city it is today - the subway had a terrible reputation in the 80s as a place of crime, so many didn't take it.
If you're using the passwords on multiple sites they're not unique.

Not that users don't do it, but that's an invariant he stated.
That's actually a whole lot worse than the AM version here. The MD5 hashes themselves are usable as valid password!

And the cracking of the MD5 hash back to original password is fully amenable to rainbow tables. All you need is hashes which you can extract from DB or webserver logs... Or sslstrip'd/HTTP traffic if that's possible.

Nowerdays on the web we've seen the benefits of separating content and presentation. Apart from inertia and weak existing tools, I don't see why we programmers mix presentation (indenting, newlines and line breaks) with our content.

If it was up to me, programs on disk and in version control would basically be an abstract syntax tree, and any time a user viewed them they would be formatted using whatever style rules and screen size the user liked.

The way we do things at the moment seems like the equivalent of those marketing e-mails where all the text is made into a big image to "make it look right".

I agree. As tempting as naming and shaming sounds, it's only ever going to hurt people. Hopefully most of that will be on the boss (who richly deserves it), but some of it may land on the OP, and he really has other things on his mind right now.

Accept the shitty boss as a learning experience and get a better job at a better company.

Maybe if the boss has a superior to report to, or there's some neutral person at the company where you can address these things, you could try going there, but it doesn't sound like it's that kind of company, and it's unlikely to lead to a job with a raise, and that's really all that should concern you right now.

An Analysis of 40+ Top SaaS Landing Pages
The 1.5 million people living in Manhattan (not even counting those who come in to to work here) need toilet paper, popsicles, beer, vegetables, furniture, etc. to live. Additionally we need our popsicle sticks and empty beer cans hauled away. Trucks driving on avenues facilitate this.

I happily live without a car in Manhattan, and have for the past 20 years, but I realize that my walk/public transport lifestyle is facilitated by trucks which bring things to my local stores.

TCP Over IP Anycast – Pipe Dream or Reality?
According to Wikipedia's stats, the population of New York declined slightly between 1950-1960, recovered 1960-1970, and then declined again, more sharply, 1970-1980. The big growth years started after 1980 - i.e. around the same time their ridership tracking began.

Correspondingly, the cultural legacy of New York as it started the 80's was one of a city in disarray with trashed streets and little public order or prospects for a future - great material for gritty films about crime and societal breakdown. The economic situation and mood started changing over the course of the decade, and the image of "Disneyfied New York" finally emerged in the 90's under Guliani's mayorship.

So, going back to the original question, New York went through a rough period following WWII, and that combined with a broad switch to cars accounts for changes in ridership.
This argument has the same line of reasoning that the businesses originally tried to use when the city did put in buffered bike lines - that removing unfettered automobile / truck access was the death knell to commerce

(Like these: http://gothamist.com/2011/07/14/post_blames_bike_lanes_for_b... http://www.villagevoice.com/news/new-east-village-bike-lanes...).

In the case of the bike lanes, this is the furthest from the truth (have a Google for lots of arguments about the merit of increased bike traffic).

I'm not sure what the solution is, but there certainly is one that would support a few car/truck free avenues.

In any case, I'm just reiterating what the article says about this point, not sure what there was to disagree about.

Having been out of the FAT32 disk environment for a while, is fragmentation determined by non contiguous sectors on the drive? Do the methods reading data from the drives consider the number of heads/platters involved for performance gains? A file would not need to be contiguous necessarily per platter but some logic employed would map it to where following sectors would pass under a drive head at the same time.

Ask HN: Accurately tracking uniques on a high traffic site
The user metric reported by Google Analytics and the StatCounter unique visitor metric are comparable based on the definitions described[1] but I confirmed that the two stats are way off:

Last Month (August)
Google Analytics - 1,159,529 users
StatCounter - 3,542,476 unique visits

How do you accurately track unique visitors? Which platform is the industry standard?

[1] "A Unique Visitor is a separate/individual/distinct visitor. The sum of your first-time PLUS your returning visitors should always equal your TOTAL unique visitors for the day." (StatCounter) "For example, if a user visits a website on August 31 and on September 1, Analytics recognizes this user as a single user over the course of these two days." (Google) "The estimated number of people accessing a property from online and mobile web in aggregate". (quantcast)
If you watch talks like The Secret History and Tragic Fate of sun.misc.Unsafe ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HG0YQVy8UM ) you'll see that there is a move to isolate unsupported APIs and to slowly remove them once they are replaced by supported ones, but in general code that uses public APIs should continue to work without recompilation for a long time.

It's totally possible there are many excellent people working at that company, but the boss is pure evil. It's pretty clear to you too that he's the one being disloyal, and a lot more than just that. He screwed you because he could, and he lied to you about it for months. Feel no loyalty to the guy.

That said, revenge can only hurt you. You need a job, and unless you have a legal case against him, there's nothing you can do about him right now. You need to think about you and your family, not about the shitty boss.

I'm clearly missing something, but I can't be bothered to watch the videos - can someone TL;DR it for me, please.
Heck no.

I'm going to ignore the whole "working for free" question for a second, and how you will almost certainly never be compensated.

The issue I take with this is: If you're working for free then stock should be given to you from day #1, not suddenly given to you in a lump sum after a year. The way you describe this, the owner can fire you after 364 days, and you aren't entitled to stock or financial compensation. And frankly, some of the people I've met in the startup world are sociopaths and will happily fire someone after 364 to keep a large % stakehold in their company, then will rationalise it, and sleep like a baby.

Now taking stock over a salary is a bad idea in general as stock in startups rarely pays out. And if you're taking stocks in lieu of salary they should be worth MORE than salary given the levels of risk and the relative values to you (stock is worthless even for years after you receive it). Plus stock's value is subjective anyway, are they going to get a valuation by an independant organisation, or just declare the company's value arbitrarily?

Honestly the whole thing sounds like a great deal for them, and a terrible deal for you.

You better be best buddies with this guy to consider this since trust is key here. If they're taking a salary then run away. I'd also re-negotiate so some stock is given earlier so less lump-summing occurs.
Yes, they should be in agreement. That doesn't say anything about which one should be in charge. With modern propaganda technology, it's possible to change the will of the people match the law whereas historically changing the law to match the will of the people was the only option.

The Trump phenomenon is built on three decades of national, tabloid level fame. His name and image recognition is the primary reason he's out in front of the other mostly bland or non-recognizable candidates (not to mention the obvious anti-establishment thing going on that has been much discussed).

McAfee can't do what Trump is doing, because he's not actually famous on any meaningful scale. Relatively few Americans know who he is or would recognize him. They also would be unlikely to automatically associate the name with the anti-virus product, "McAfee" means nothing to most of the population. Practically anyone in the US born between 1940 and 2000 knows who Donald Trump is.
The photos weren't really leaked. They were purposefully, proudly, and affirmatively held up by a senior TSA official so a news reporter could photograph them.

While these locks are so easily defeated that this really doesn't make anyone significantly less safe, it does demonstrate that the TSA knows absolutely nothing about security.
They didn't really roll their own encryption right?

They rolled their own session login stuff, used it for some sort of login-key (what I assume they passed with server sessions). Why they would do that instead of a simple session ID I will probably never know. Maybe they did it so they could have independent backends (instead of having to share session keys across load balanced api servers).
He has become a double entendre parody of himself, it's really the quite an amusing play on the state of the American political system.

Many parts of NYC depopulated heavily during suburban flight, in particular Manhattan - the regional population has always trended up but many people left for the newly developed suburbs following the war.

Manhattan's population for example peaked at 2.2m between 1910-1920 and still has never been that high since. Current estimates are around 1.6m.

Population density in Manhattan has decreased dramatically, largely owing to suburban flight and an increased demand for quality of life - it was 21 people per 5,000 sq ft in 1910[1], it is 12 people now.

One funny thing about all of this is that the old brick buildings that are such prized real estate nowadays used to be low-rent tenements, considered blights on the city, and where a million dollar bachelor pad now sits multiple families used to fit in the same space.

The pattern extends to other parts of the city also - Brooklyn peaked at 2.7m between 1940-1950 and rapidly depopulated afterwards, even now the borough only has ~2.5m people.

The depopulation is a large part of NYC's reputation in the 60s, 70s, and 80s as a dangerous place - abandoned buildings and depopulated neighborhoods contributed to crime and general decay, though of course cheap rent also contributed to a dramatic surge of artistic achievement.

tl;dr: NYC depopulated heavily after 1950, and didn't really start recovering until the 1990s, and even then NYC's population didn't start growing rapidly until the early 2000s when the combination of shifting preference towards urban lifestyles and lowering crime made a large influx of population possible.

The resurgence of American cities is, in the grand scheme of things, an extremely recent phenomenon.

Anyway, a low-speed maglev doesn't travel that fast; only around 60-70mph. It'll also be quiet and smooth, as I already mentioned. The length of Manhattan is only about 14 miles so at that speed it's a 15 minute trip. Commuting from far into Brooklyn or Queens can take over an hour to get into Manhattan.

You could also build the bus station 10 miles outside of the city, near the stadium, for example, and quickly get everyone into Manhattan. 230,000 people take a bus into Manhattan daily.

I use KeePass as well, and have had no problems using SpiderOak to securely sync my password database across devices.

(Though I've heard noises recently about KeePass's .kdbx file format having some known vulnerabilities. Anyone else heard this, or have more details?)
If an attacker somehow downloaded all my databases (because we keep data partitioned to minimize damage if one of them is compromised, as well as to better partition the application itself), then they would be able to see all of history.

But they wouldn't have the user's credit card, because that's encrypted separately with the key stored somewhere else.

And they wouldn't be able to take action on behalf of the user. That is, they couldn't place new orders as the user, or stuff like that.
